XCrawl: Team 3 - Bestiarii ONLY

[EagleFan]

That seemed easy enough.

I want to say we push the button for PB's team but we may want to think about this.

If we push first and something bad does happen, the other teams would probably all push ours.

[The Jackal]

I certainly lean towards pressing their button too but I wouldn't mind waiting to see who acts first.

[EagleFan]

I'm thinking maybe the person who pushes the button may want to be wearing the medallion.

Thoughts?

[EagleFan]

I would be willing to try the medallion, since I am a mage the medallion may be magical. Possible spell boost?

[EagleFan]

Oh, great job on the room!!! Just saw that we picked up a lot of time on everyone in that room.

[The Jackal]

I don't trust imps or evil medallions, but if you want to wear it, go ahead.

But our team is evil so an evil medallion sounds pretty good.

[The Jackal]

haha, good point!

[EagleFan]

Going to be out for a couple hours.

[EagleFan]

oh, just noticed that we may be ahead of the main thread by the end of the day.

[The Jackal]

Man, we need to get to level 3.

[The Jackal]

I ended up pushing big wang's button after they pushed their own and then hoops pushed theirs, you guys weren't around to discuss. They're in the lead and hopefully it screws with them.

[The Jackal]

I was kind of hoping the last team would push our button so we can get a level here, hopefully it's nothing too crazy sicked on us.

[EagleFan]

Looks like I mssed the action, well, except for what our action may be.

[EagleFan]

Thoughts on me putting the medallion on?

[The Jackal]

I really have no advice on that subject, you're welcome to give it a shot. I have a weird feeling about it even though we're evil.

[Chief Rum]

Nice. I like the way things have gone so far. I think we're in for a test, but we're up to it.

I'm not sure you should put on the medallion yet. While we are, indeed, evil, that doesn't mean the medallion doesn't intend "evil" to us. It might not be "for the purpose of evil" but "to do evil", ya know?

Good decision, BTW< Jackal, way to be on top of it.

[The Jackal]

Thanks CR, I wanted to wait for you guys but the opportunity presented itself

[EagleFan]

Agreed, good call Jackal.

[EagleFan]

What do you think? Do we just get the first part? The gel'o'nothing?

[The Jackal]

Doubtful, they got that when they pressed their own button. We might get the slow effect if it's the same thing, but I'm hoping we get a fight instead.

[Chief Rum]

I would like a fight as well, maybe get us some extra HP and experience (maybe loot, too).

I am out until after deadline, guys, so hopefully we'll come out okay. I'll read up on things when I get home.

[EagleFan]

Looks like we're about to find out...

[The Jackal]

Skeletons, we got em, swords are no good but brute force should work

[EagleFan]

Me thinks the skeletons got KWhit...

[The Jackal]

Did we level?!

[The Jackal]

Reviving EF may slow us down a little but I think in the long run it will be worth it for the xp gained, and it's not like we're poisoned like that other team, plus we had a healthy lead on the two others. All in all a solid day.

[EagleFan]

Crud, that sucked. Good work gentlemen (too bad CR had the accuracy of McNabb... )

[The Jackal]

You were bound to get screwed with a starting hp of 8, it's acceptable

[KWhit]

Jackal and Chief Rum are now Level 3!

[KWhit]

So here's the deal.

1st thing you have to do is nurse EF back to consciousness. That brings him to 1hp.

Then you can decide whether you want to use healing potions to cure your HP or not.

Let me know tomorrow how you want to handle it.

Room 6: The Hallway

A door opens to the right of the 4 buttons. A referee ushers you through.

"Hurry up!" he says.

You press on.

You rush through and into a hallway.

You follow the arrows.

Travelling along the hall, you see three doors, all on your right.

A sign on Door 1 reads: Lots of experience in here.

A sign on Door 2 reads: Need some supplies?

And the sign on Door 3 is a large Question Mark.

And the hallway continues further on ahead, the arrows still pointing forward along the floor.

Do you open a door and enter one of the rooms? If so, tell me which one.

Or do you continue down the hall?

[The Jackal]

My guess is lots of experience here = monsters, supplies = merchant we can purchase items from, and question mark = what fun does kwhit want to have with us.

[The Jackal]

How much gold do we have between us? Very little. I can see you dropping by to buy a healing potion EF but I have a few and do we need to waste the time?

We could go after the experience but we're not all that healed at the moment, and the question mark might be more of the same.

I almost lean towards continuing down the hall for the race, as I'm sure we'll run into plenty of monsters.

[EagleFan]

I would be fine with that decision. If I wasn't "near death" I would say we go after the XP or roll the dice with the question mark.

[The Jackal]

Pretty sure you want to use a healing potion, yes?

[The Jackal]

Any thoughts CR? Do you want to try one of the rooms or keep going? I think as of now the plan will be to continue down the hall, but I'm open to trying one of the rooms with maybe leaving EF in the hallway to rest.

[Chief Rum]

I think we can do the experience door if EF uses the healing potion. Getting new levels has helped us with HP ourselves.

But if you guys want to head down the hall, I am okay with that.

We have four healing potions among us, I believe.

[The Jackal]

Think we have 5 total, you each have one and I have three.

[EagleFan]

I think it depends on how much a health potion heals me. If we have to use multiple potions to heal me, and thus multiple turns then we may lose quite a bit of time.

I'm fine with either decision though, wouldn;t mind getting to the next level to gain HP.

[The Jackal]

I think a healing potion would likely take you back to max.

Let's have you take one - would you guys prefer to go into the experience room or question mark room?

[Chief Rum]

Isn't a healing potion an automatic use? Why don't we send KWhit a direction to have EF imbibe a healing potion and see what HP he gains. Then we can decide how we went to go about things.

Heh...what he said.

I was figuring experience, but it might be worth it to check out the question mark room.

[EagleFan]

Getting closer to game time!!!!

Join in Chief...

Let's Go Flyers!!!!

[The Jackal]

I'm going to be mostly if not totally away from the thread starting in 30 minutes or so, so whatever you guys end up deciding is fine with me.

[The Jackal]

But I will be watching the game, yes, GO FLYERS!

[EagleFan]

The question mark room could be fun, but it could also be a trap.

I would gues that XP is a fight so question mark may be a trap that slows us down. Granted it could also hold somethinig that can really help us.

Any ideas/thoughts on the medallion of evil?

[The Jackal]

I'm still wary of the medallion, feel free to try it out, but drink the healing potion first. It could protect you from certain things, or it could be cursed, it's anyone's guess.

It's possible we'll find a room where it makes sense to put it on, but I don't know.

[EagleFan]

How does this sound.

- I drink a potion

- If it heals me fully we enter a room (XP or ? - thoughts?)

- If it doesn't heal me fully but over say 60% we proceed with the enter room idea

- if it doesn't heal me above 50 I take another?

- if we have to wait more than a turn for me to heal we then...?

- We move along
