[IC] League of Extraordinary Merchants vs Lyolf's Legion

[Lance]

"And here we are, the final fight upon us at last!" the elf spoke aloud, his eyes aglow.

"....yay."

"Yay? Now that seems a little too dispirited even for you, my little feathered friend" the elven magus turned to the raven perched atop his shoulder. "We're finally past all that bloodshed, sacrifice, and tears, and now we've made it all the way into the very finals that seemed years away from ever reaching completion!"

"Except there was no lasting bloodshed and I'm not even going to mention the whole 'years' thing."

"Well..."

"Plus, you never sacrificed a thing."

"Hmm..."

"And I can't remember the last time you shed a te-"



"Now, hold it right there, Uli. I have shed tears - and quite recently, in fact," the elven told his familiar rather smugly

"Oh? Do tell."

"Tears of joy, Uli! TEARS OF JOY!!"

"..."



"That should count, right?" Lyolf spoke once more, as he shared a look with his familiar of many years. In the end, they both shrugged in perfect unison before chuckling despite the present situation. "In either case, is some celebration too much to ask for? We've done fairly well getting here after all. Win or lose, we should be able to take some pride in what we've already accomplished."

"But what purpose would it serve..? And for what reason have we even been fighting at all - or is this all just some contest to find the 'most egotistical of them all?'""

"Well, I was actually hoping to take home a prize of some sort. And as for that contest, we all know who the winner'd be"

"A prize - And we all know, alright? You mean to tell me you've been fighting this whole time for some 'prize' that may or may not even exist and could, for all you know, just be a simple handout parchment saying 'The Winner Is You!'" the raven asked sardonically, to which Lyolf nodded with much vigor. The raven sighed once more, using its wing to rub its forehead in exasperation.

"And what would you even do with such a prize once you acquire it?"

"Ah," the elf looked shock, the thought never occurring to him. "Good point."

"..."

"But perhaps it may make for a nice present for Rasputin. She hides it well, but lately she seems even more moody than before - nothing a shining golden trophy can't fix!"

"...You really do spoil that girl too much, you know? You and Kin both."

[info]For mechanical purposes, lets assume the first 10 ft. next to an edge of the arena (the wall), is dim light. Characters with low-light vision, having extended light levels as per the Vision and Light rules, will still treat the first 10 ft. as normal light.

@Lance, send me a PM of your readied actions if you do them, or use the Include tag: http://forums.fantasyworldcreations.com/index.php?topic=1568.0

[info]LYOLF DOES A MAD DASH FORWARD!! And Uli's readied action is to use its greatest buff spell on either Jin, Serena, or Grey if they draw just a little bit closer :)[/info]

[include u=2,335]Actually... that's wrong info. What Lyolf will really do is to make his move to the right. And Uli's readied action was to use Shadow Feather Strike when an opponent enters into range.[/include]

Grey takes the arrow in the shoulder but with a grimace he pulled it free and then threw it to the ground ad snapped it, With a bloody hand he hit his dragon hide shirt which seemed to drink of the crimson fluid and grow a brighter crimson in the process the hide seemed to breath as if it was alive once more and now a part of its wearer. He would not be letting a shot like that hit him again so easily. With his now somehow living armor he grabbed a potion from his bag and slammed it down in a moment .

[info]
Grey uses swift action to empower his armor with an enchant bonus of +2

uses a action to drink a potion of barkskin +5

ac increases to 29

damage reduces to 8 due to medium armor and leather specialty

[info]I already applied damage reduction.

"This distance puts us at a disadvantage," the armored merchant mused aloud, as he eyed his three opponents in detail. "Bows on all of their number and only a tiny bird to serve as their vanguard? It's as if they're inviting us to come charging into their midst."

"Well, let us see what traps our fellow guild members have prepared."
