Nocturne potion, anyone!?

[boberot]

Abe, did I open the sarcophagus?

No, I already got one.

He says he's already got one!

Of course not.

[Poli]

Haters. I NEED A NOCTURNE POTION.

[PackerFanatic]

Poli - I don't know if it will be any easy even if we both wait until morning and try it. I was lucky I was able to run away, otherwise I wouldn't have stood a chance. We can try it if you want though (unless you intend on trying tonight - if so, God speed!)

No you don't. I need one. Since I just drank mine.

I can't without the potion. I really really want to.

I really really want to do it solo as well. I know with the lute this is going to be so cake.

[Poli]

500 for a Nocturne potion?

I am still mildly bummed I didn't get a curse.

There's still time for you. Probably not for me. I've made my decision.

Since I am a puny artificer and will likely eat some dirt, I'd like to say that this game has been a lot of fun. Many thanks to Abe and to all of you.

Two men enter, one man leaves!

[Poli]

Have you made up your mind, ches?

Nope, went to the Djinni sale

[KWhit]

I can't wait for Ches to wipe the floor with Dubb.

Xeenthrax watches impatiently. He wants to see more blood. Dubb's in particular.

[Abe Sargent]

Ladies and gentlemen, tonight, for your entertainment, we will host a death match between chesapeake and....no, that would be telling too soon.

I will begin processing the evening actions. Once that is done, after a few moments, I will begin posting the battle in its entirety. Then the evening will close and one player WILL die.

[Abe Sargent]

The Pixies announce:

Oh noes! We have had another death. Chief Rum has fallen to the Wheel Trap! This clever invention roles giant two ton wheels down on the player with just enough magic in them to keep them from being guarded against.

You may glad to note that, although one of your comrades has died, the powers that be have decided to seal off the Wheel Trap room permanently, and no one can get to it or from it.

Barring a Passwall scroll or Axe of Stonecutting or something....

Let's all wish Chief Rum a lovely game!

[Abe Sargent]

chesapeake steps inside the arena. Instantly you are all teleported to various seats around the arena to watch the illegal deathmatch.

All of you, but The Jackal. The Jackal is summoned to the other side of the arena, facing chesapeake.

"Welcome to tonight's festivities!" a voice booms.

"Tonight, for your very special pleasure, two of your number will fight, and while one will win and gain fortune and fame, the other will die a harrowing death."

[Abe Sargent]

Normally, in combat, a player always goes first against monsters, always attacking first in every round.

Before battle begins, each player begins at long range. While at long range, each combatant can snipe at the other with spells, long distance weapons, and such. Usually, one or the other will charge and bring the combat into close quarters, but sometimes two fighters will sling spells and items from range for some time.

Tonight, with one player vs one player, I will roll at the beginning of each round to see who will resolve their action first.

[Abe Sargent]

"In order for the fight to be fair, each player is restored to their max hp and all spells are restored as well. Also, certain items which would end the combat immediately are turned off for this confrontation, such as Bead of Force or Scroll of Obliteration."



Rounds One:

I roll, and the player to go first is...The Jackal.

Not being stupid, he understands that chesapeake has 7 mirror images he will have to break through before he can start dealing damage to chesapeake. However, once he does that, chesapeake might fall in short order.

The Jackal uses his first round to cast Cause Light Wounds, in order to kill one image.

6 left

chesapeake pulls a Wand of Paralyzation and fires at The Jackal.

However, The Jackal is immune because of an item he wears!!!


Round Two:

chesapeake wins initiative. He pulls out the Wand of Acid Arrow and nails The Jackal for 20 damage this round!

The Jackal casts Cure Moderate Wounds and heals the damage

[Danny]

Cool, live updates

[Abe Sargent]

Round Three:

chesapeake rolls and wins initiative. He pulls pulls out the Wand of Lightning. He zarks The Jackal for 21 damage. Acid Arrow resolves again and The Jackal is reeling from 41 damage.

The Jackal casts Cure Serious Wounds and now has only taken 11.

Round Four:

The Jackal wins initiative. He launches an attack with "Ram" and kills a second image.

5 images remain.

chesapeake draws a Wand of Magic Missile and five darts of energy lance from it to The Jackal, dealing 19 damage.

The Jackal has taken 30 so far.

[Danny]

Not looking good for Jackal

[Abe Sargent]

Round Five:

The Jackal wins initiative and drinks aPotion of healing. He has now taken 5 damage.

chesapeake has used all of his wands once for free, but he has a few more surprises.

He uses a charge on the Wand of Acid Arrow to once again hit The Jackal for 20 this turn.

The Jackal has taken 25


Round Six:

The Jackal also has tricks up his sleeve. He wins initiative and drinks a Potion of Invisibility. He can go hide, heal with potions and herbs, then come back and ambush chesa for free.

chesapeake has a counter. He casts True Sight which counters all illusions, including invisibility. The Jackal is revleaed and takes 20 more damage from the Acid Arrow. He has now taken 45 damage

[Danny]

Poor Jackal

[Abe Sargent]

Round Seven:

The Jackal needs to win this initiative in order to stay alive or chesapeake can likely finish him off this round. He has won a lot already, can he win this one too?

The Jackal rolls a d20 and gets...a 3. Ouch.

chesapeake rolls and gets a 10

chesapeake grabs the Wand of Magic Missile and uses a charge to pump The Jackal with hot magical arrows of pain.

The first one deals 3 damage
The second one deals 4
The third one deals 2
The fourth one deals 3
The fifth one deals 3

The Jackal falls lifeless to the ground.

[Abe Sargent]

chesapeake is now evil

[Danny]

Jackal!!! NO!!!

I request that I be placed back into the dungeon so that I can bring Chesapeake to justice!

[Abe Sargent]

The rulers of the dungeon have arrived.

They are too late to do anything about The Jackal, but they have banned any future death matches. Anybody further who steps into the Arena room will no longer be able to use it for death matches.

[Abe Sargent]

You have all been returned to your rooms.

[Abe Sargent]

Today was an eventful day but the new day brings new challenges and new opportunities.

Good luck

He was too scared to challenge me. For shame too. I was the same level he was.

[dubb93]

:sigh: If not for bad luck I wouldn't have any at all. No matter what I do I can't seem to find ANY XP at all.

[dubb93]

Something tells me Ches wouldn't have liked my potion of invincibility.

[Abe Sargent]

Alright, I'm off to bed.

Sorry CR and Jackal!!!

lmao...was given fair warning that I was in a pretty bad place. So what did I do? Step boldly into the corridor and flip the evil hallway off.

Umm, bad idea...

Well, I had fun. Great game, Abe. What a weird way to die.

Ha! You don't have to be sorry. I had a lot of fun. At least I died in a memorable way. I'll just remember to stay away from evil sounding rooms.

I would have rather died in a arena death match. Still, your death will be mourned.

Here are the un-official odds:

chesapeake 1.5-1
passacaglia 3-1
poli 8-1
dubb 10-1
ntndeacon 12-1
qwikshot 15-1
daddytorgo 20-1
thomkal 25-1
packerfanatic 45-1
boberot 50-1



If you are given good odds, beware the price of destiny! Do not get complacent.

If you are given bad odd, prove them all wrong! Get in there and win it all!!!

So I wonder what the odds are now...

[Poli]

Certainly feels like Pass is the only one I can pass at this point. Ches has got to be 'this' close.

CR, sorry to see you go, sort of. I bet you wish you sold the nocturne potion to me now.

[Poli]

PF, I'm going to save the town. I'd appreciate it if I could try and do this solo.
