OH yeah, found the source of the little Fae (or at least the image used). It's from the Black Cauldron. So the pseudo-bird could be from the Horned King.
Yep. 20 martial normally. 40 if he is in personal combat. 50 if he is trying to take the person he's fighting alive.
I think he's probably going on every adventure...
No clue. I don't think I had seen any kung-fu panda elements till this update.
Assuming it's a martial heavy adventure. Not every excursion involves punch-ploding people. Also he's not exactly the most subtle of individuals and there will be cases where getting in and out unseen is best.
Yes, yes, if we take out everyone no-one iwll know we're there (heard that line before). You know what I mean.
Oh damn this was a good turn. Love all the new hero units we've picked up. I'm most interested in how Tai Lung's arc is going to go here.
Tai Lung and Leah, research partners!
Oh, I wonder who this is. I think it is the main character from Prince of Persia. I mean he is acrobatic, and I doesn't know that much about him so he may very well have some magic artifact that creates a blue light.But even the blacksmith's efforts paled in comparison to a robed figure that was absolutely tearing bandits to pieces! Precise punches, kicks and strikes with the knees and elbows laid them low. Every gap in their defences was picked apart, dismantling entire groups at a time. When the fighter was hard pressed and the bandits had brought in spears, he actually ran up the wall and then kicked off, sailing over their heads to land at their backs with only the faintest of whispers, before lashing out with pinpoint strikes to the backs of the spearmen. Unless Aladdin's eyes were playing tricks on him in the heat of battle, each strike was accompanied by a faint wash of blue light emanating from the point of contact, before the person struck dropped in a convulsing heap.
...OkayThe figure paused, then grasped the edges of his hood with gloved hands, pulling it down, and causing Aladdin and his troops to boggle at the craggy brow and almost sheepish expression upon the muzzle of the humanoid snow leopard that stood before them, sighing in satisfaction as he removed his gloves to reveal the furred paws they had concealed. Once they were removed, the Snow Leopard clapped them in front of him and bowed deeply at the waist.
"I am called Tai Lung, my Prince."
Bwahaha!
...Who? I have never heard of him before.
Wait a second. Is he from the Count of Monte Cristo?
Well isnt this a bit ironic. The father visits the sons kingdom without any of them knowing their relationship.As well as to see the kind of kingdom he served. As for who I am..." The man gave a mocking half-bow, never taking his eyes off of Haroud. "The King of Thieves."
I am not sure who the pixie is or where the crow-like being come from.Here, come here!" The light reoriented and zipped towards her. As it got closer, Leah saw that it wasn't merely a light, but a tiny winged child, face a mask of fear and tears before barely avoiding smacking into Leah's face, and instead zipping behind her hair to hide at the nape of the young woman's neck. The crow, not to be denied, cawed harshly, diving at Leah.
"Stop that! Stop that this instant!" The bird didn't appear inclined to do so, and as it came in for another dive, Leah saw that its eyes were pure pools of red that trailed wisps of black smoke. "Ah! Get away! Get away!" Leah swatted at the not-bird, earning a vicious peck to her hands, before it darted around, clawing at her hair in an attempt to drive the tiny pixie out of hiding.
Only parts of it that had been isolated and ignored due to all the trouble Shan Yu has been having.
Okay, it seems that this is the cellmate of the Count of Monte Cristo
And it seems that the pixie is from The Black Cauldron.I am not sure who the pixie is or where the crow-like being come from.
Interesting that we managed to capture the birdlike being though.
-Points up to my previous post-I am not sure who the pixie is or where the crow-like being come from.
Well it's Villains *Almost* Victorious and what was Tai Lung after? The Dragon scroll.That was not who I were expecting. Especially because he is so... calm.
Aladdin was campaigning during one of those instances, and I flipped a coin to determine which one. So he wasn't directly involved, and his +12 came from material assets provided.I was wondering something. If Diamond in the Rough activates on crits, and did so for Martial and Diplomacy, why not the same for Occult?
Gotcha, thanks for the explanation.Aladdin was campaigning during one of those instances, and I flipped a coin to determine which one. So he wasn't directly involved, and his +12 came from material assets provided.
Which raises the question of where the Cavern King himself is, given Jose canonically died in the prison IIRC. I'd guess only one person left the Chateau during the Upheaval, given Jose has that relevant bonus.Okay, it seems that this is the cellmate of the Count of Monte Cristo
If you look at the map on the Informational titled "Immediate Area" then you'll see Ababwa. The Northern Satraps are, generally those that are to the north (not trying to be a dick here); so yes, you guys now have access to the Caspian Sea; and all that entails.Been stalking this quest for a bit. Hello, all!
What area does the "Northern Satraps" entail, exactly? Iranian Caucasus? Central Asia? Do we have access to the Caspian, now?
I, for one, would prefer to stay as far from seas as possible, at least for now. I really don't want to be involved in that mess.If it is possible, it would be a good idea to get some land around the ariaban cost for the sweet sweet port cities
Glad you liked it! And in regards to the port cities, well it's a good thing the Caspian is an inland Sea, isn't it?Thanks for update!
And I can only say "Wow".
I, for one, would prefer to stay as far from seas as possible, at least for now. I really don't want to be involved in that mess.
I think that should probably wait until after he's recovered from his time as a prisoner. Hopefully there's an option to focus on his medical care next turn.As for José, he is basically a fixture for any Quest team with his "buffing trait"
Yep. At least for me.well it's a good thing the Caspian is an inland Sea, isn't it?
Funny enoungh, that suits Holmes pretty well. Holmes, originally, a very practical-minded person after all. For example: A quote from A Study in ScarletHolmes reaction check: 1d100: 93! He cannot deny what is right in front of his eyes
Glad you liked it! And in regards to the port cities, well it's a good thing the Caspian is an inland Sea, isn't it?
LeopardLover said:See? I told you guys we should have done Diplomacy with Queen La before it was too late! Now look what's happened! We've completely lost the chance to do it!
ktigre_alpha said:Okay, can you stop bringing this up already? Yes, we did shoot one of her men first. But she immediately decided to attack us over it, and have you forgotten she also turned our men? That was completely disproportionate as a reaction!
Swordfish said:Yeah, dude, I know you're super-into the idea of Hub becoming her consort or something, but that was already pretty unlikely an idea for him to entertain even if there were no other hostilities between us. Plus I think she might already be shacking up with her champion anyways?
TheOneInTheMiddle said:Also, um, you never said anything about "before it was too late." You just kept voting for it and saying that you thought it was a good idea. that doesn't mean everyone has to agree with you about that. And yeah, maybe it'd be better if it didn't descend into an outright war, but what's done is done. Honestly I'm not sure at what point we could have prevented her from turning our men.
BlackBakeneko said:...wait, do you think we could have gotten super leopard soldiers from this?
Swordfish said:Well, in canon they were actually leopards turned into men, not the other way around. So I have no idea if we could have gotten leopard soldiers who still had their minds intact.
BlackBakeneko said:
LeopardLover said:She wasn't being unreasonable! We killed and skinned one of her men like a common animal! Of course she'd be mad about it! We just kept doing things to earn her wrath. I hope you guys are happy about these results!
BlackBakeneko said:Wait, did she even know we autopsied one of them? Also we didn't eat him, right? It's not like people didn't autopsy normal human corpses back then if there was something weird about their bodies.
Swordfish said:
TheOneInTheMiddle said:Pretty sure we did the autopsy somewhere far away her scouts wouldn't have seen it. Plus, yeah, I'm pretty happy about those results? Yeah, we had a battle, but we rolled really well in it and probably managed to repel her for good. And we're leaving soon anyways.
ktigre_alpha said:Yeah, dude, stop trying to make everything about your ship not being canon, okay? It's not like this was going to be a permanent settlement or anything. How much do you bet she'd go full yandere if we tried leaving after earning her favor?
ActiveAdventurer said:Yeah, for the record, I'll say that if you'd ended up with some kind of agreement with Queen La, there'd be a lot more complications about leaving apart from simple logistics.
