DUNGEONS & DRAG-QUEENS: CAPED COSPLAY!

(I just took like half an hour writing a fricken' post and it didn't post!)

Basically; I send Neku (my pig) to find somewhere safe to hide and loot all the goblins it can. I tell Aridath to fight. I use my Ganster Crossbow to shoot my balls of light at the boss. (When I run out of MP I'll just start throwing dead goblins at him.)

dammit

I wanted to make sure he bit me before the fight was over, I was only sneaking around and attacking from cover because I knew it was going to take a bunch of turns. Don't just decide what my character is going to do without my consent!

Can we back up to turn 2 and do the fight for real? This is basically bullshit.

I mean I feel bad making you do it, too. Sorry! But I also want to, well, actually play. I was super excited about finally having the first battle in the game, with HP and abilities and everything, and then it was just gonna get completely skipped.

It doesn't bother me at all if you take a week or two to post sometimes! That's totally fine, don't feel bad about taking a while. What really does bother me, though, is if, at the end of that week or two, instead of doing a normal game post and letting us move on to the round I've been anticipating for a week or two, you just skip past it and I don't actually get to do anything.

(As an aside, I also kinda wonder if maybe we shouldn't get XP for the goblins on the ground. You're the one designing the challenges, so if you want us to be level 10-11 after the battle then that's fine. But that's a ton of powers, so I wouldn't be offended if you decided to only give XP for actual battles and not for cut scenes.)

Anyway, I will chuck a flaming log at Kristoph from back here. Rhys, can you ask Kristoph to give me a friendly, non-fatal nibble?

Goodness gracious, Diamond, really? A werewolf? You cray-cray.

Okay, uh, I guess I'll just continue attacking the werewolf with my rainbows. Yeah, that sounds good.
also I love that drawing of me Dudesoft

I can't believe you wanted to turn into a werewolf, Diamond. It's just crazy. I mean, how do you know you'll be able to control your actions while being a werewolf? (How do werewolves work in this game, like are they traditional bloodthirsty hounds who can't control themselves or what?)

Anyway, my rainbows seem to be working quite nicely, so I suppose I'll continue shooting rainbows at the werewolf!!

As long as they don't sparkle I'm good.

Accidental transformations are pretty much my entire character gimmick. I sure wasn't gonna pass up some werewolf genes.

Anyway, Kristoph can clearly control himself in that form - I saw him helping to lead the army and speaking to Vladimir earlier. So it's at least possible.

Well, the werewolf jumped over the fire pit, so this would be the correct time to shriek like the little girl I am, and hide behind Bruce Baker after running between his legs. Now that Bruce has arrived, I'll have him attack Kristoph and cover Diamond with his twin broadswords.

Aridath I choose you! (I make him summon up when of them fancy magical swords.)

I'll save my MP for later, right now I'll throw my potion of illness at him. I also start attacking with my brass-plated short sword.
(When did I get either of those things?)

I'll have Harry attack while I find some hot beverage to splash in the werewolf's face.
