It's time Doods and Doodettes! for the Result of the last Scenario of D&D&F!
Let me be completely honest with you all tho... I am not happy with your choices this month...
I thought my dear subjects would know better than to THROW ME AT A GNOME DEN!!
So yeah.... Let's roll some dices...
Taylor tried to stock for the adventure but many of the shops didn't want to sell to him, some would try to politely say they did not had what Taylor was looking for and other would bluntly ask him to get out, it wasn't a pleasantly shopping trip and you only found some stuff stores in shady alleys or where people rarely would go to... Talking with the people of the town they all seem pretty happy with their lives, they know about the calamity and they not only trust the counselors are doing their best to protect them but they really believe nothing will EVER happen in the capital, it is the safest of places thanks to the great magic of the counselors.
DemonKnight... you were welcomed at an inn with beautiful women and they all offered you to try the house's feast claiming it was the best in town! You accepted with the condition they would keep you company and so you spent a whole day eating, next morning tho you understood that there wasn't a simple feast, you had to endure terrible stomach pains and could not leave the bathroom for the next couple of days! So yeah! Use this time to reflect about your actions!! And maybe next time think TWICE before SUGGESTING I SHOULD GO TO A ROOM FULL OF STUPID GNOMES!!
Now... HOPS! Sweet Hops! I know you didn't want to give me any gnomes! You walk around town and everyone you interact with is very welcoming of you, always answering your questions and playing with your little jelly body. Tavern to tavern, inn to inn, Hops was given pancakes for free more than once and people would always compliment him about how cute and polite the young Alchemist is! You share with some people about your job as bodyguard of the counselors and they happily shared with you a bunch of supplies like potions and some women even flirted with Hops, curious about the seemingly innocent little slime so he had some very busy nights too!
Now, for the second part, the Day for your job has come!
Everything is chaotic around the ritual. Projectiles are flying from the woods. The mages are trying to continue the spell while shouting at the Doods to do something. The ground is shaking due to the interrupted casting. The stone columns circling the place are starting to crumble from the stuff thrown at them and the small earthquake.
Taylor, quick in his thoughts and movements, immediately tries to subdue the central mage hoping to make everything cease rapidly.
That is a bit too much for you this month, my friend, but I will give you a small chance... IF you roll 20 you can do it...
Too bad... Oh Well... It Happens right?
You try to subdue the Central Mage but you trip when you reach close to them and you both end up falling! Some arrows and rocks pass right through both of you so neither of you was harmed in any way.
Demon Knight, not wanting a fight for the moment, you wish to bolt towards the sacrifice, grab them and get out of the ritual’s place, together with yelling at the mages trying to convince them to continue tomorrow...
Oh MAYBE they will listen to you and retreat? let's see...
If you roll a 2 you will be able to do it Demon! Easy right?? You just have a handicap of -20!
Go! You can do it!
But not! Whatta a pity ...
You run for the Sacrifice and take them off the pedestal but as soon as you freed them they toss and turn as hard as they can, you would have to use too much force to hold them down and with their frail body you don't think they would come out of that unscathed, so you let them go and so they run towards the woods and more projectiles come in your direction, Weirdly enough, it seems that it where always missing. On purpose maybe? they do not hit you but prevent you from following the Sacrifice.
Hops, couldn't reach the sacrifice before DemonKnight and it got away but Hops went to his friend and hopped on his back yelling for them to get out of there!
You three run from the ritual site as the earthquake has opened some chasms in between the destroyed pillars and stone tiles.
The other mages were a bit prepared for an attack, but that simply was just chaos. Without knowing what to do anymore, they all stop chanting the spell and follow behind the Dood’s escape.
On the way out of that place, Hops wants to throw a bomb on that place to destroy it forever!
You are a nice guy Hops and have chosen well this month so just give me a 3 and send that ritual site flying into the air!
YAY! I know you could do it!
The Mages doesn't really seem too happy about it tho... Maybe it was a hasty decision?
You all go back to the Capital and into the Great Hall as the great counselor are waiting for a report.
