but if everyone spells it wrong automatically, how are we going to make fun of the people who actually spell it wrong?

Maybe replace "rouge" with something. That way we ALWAYS know when someone spelled it wrong, and can mock with impunity.

If we suggest to have a word buttplugged, it probably won't be.

Maybe "make-up artist." That way it takes the idea of it being a class like a rogue and the blush make-up and mixes them. This is funny.

Sorry for my absence, I've just been getting some much needed rest. Can't seem to keep myself awake during the day.

Anyways, I follow the group and equip my quiver and my bow.

The caravan moves out. Naussica hitches a ride on the back cart, riding with his legs out the back as Thade and Turgo walk alongside the cart. Thade, as you leave the town, you look back and see the village watchman on the guardtower, watching the caravan leave. He swiftly turns and disappears from view.

Some time later...

A recent rain has churned the paths leading to the nearby forest- and the rebel's camp- to mud. The wheeled caravans are making slow progress through the ruts. As Turgo helps shove the back cart out of yet another pothole, Thade glances back at the town at the same instant that a man raises a shout. A hot, high pillar of fire rises on the horizon. The guardsmen's signal fire is burning bright- the rebels have been betrayed.

The man who freed you from the cell runs past, yelling "They'll be Crownies coming out of the fields in minutes! Form a defensive line!" The archers clamber on top of the carts as the leaders slowly bring them around to form an arc, facing the town. Across the field, Turgo can just barely make out vauge shapes riding down towards them...

I draw my sword and one of my daggers, and see if there is anywhere to hide nearby. Perferably somewhere where I can ambush. Are we in the forest?

The wagons have gone so slow that you're nearing the edge of the forest. There are enough carts that you can probably get lost in the shuffle though.

Turgo will head in the direction of the approaching Crownies, pushing past whatever line they've formed to stand out in the open, drawing a javelin to throw at the first thing he sees move.

His next action will be to draw his axe and shield and stand his ground, several yards from the caravan's defenses.

Stand up on the cart and ready my bow and arrow. If any enemies attack, I'll shoot an arrow right in between their eyes.

I manouver to a spot relatively hidden, somewhere between Naussica and Turgo

Turgo shoves his way past the soldiers rushing to form a combat line, walking out in front of the soldiers and drawing a javelin. The riders close with the carts, and some shouts "For the Crown!" DEX Check: 1. The javelin buries itself point-first somewhere between the rebel line and the oncoming riders.

As Turgo draws his axe and takes a defensive posture beyond the line, several soldiers run up to stand with him. The riders suddenly draw to a halt, ten yards from Turgo.

A messenger separates himself from the riders and rides towards Turgo. He pulls out a bull-horn and shouts through it "Surrender now, rebels, and we will spare your lives! Defiance of the Crown shall not be tolerated!" He lowers the horn and points at Turgo. "Leader! Throw down your axe and we will not execute you as a leader of rebels." The leader, standing next to Naussica on one of the carts, raises his crossbow and fires a bolt directly inbetween the eyes of the messenger. "I am the leader of these rebels," he shouts, "and I say, FIRE AT WILL!" The archers raise their bows as the riders spur their horses again. A flight of arrows come from the carts.

Naussica DEX check: 7. Although he can't see his arrow as it becomes lost in the crowd, the flight downs several unarmored riders.

Rain begins to pelt down as Thade ducks underneath one of the carts.

The riders close with Turgo.

Be vewy vewy qwiet... i'm huntin' people

I try to move along unnoticed around the carts, and get behind the riders. Then i start stabbing.

Post by **Olothontor** » Sat Dec 04, 2010 7:50 pm

I hold my action until the first rider is about to make contact, then slash a low blow at his horse's knees and send it toppling. After that I murder the rider and proceed to engage in combat with the remainder of the crownies, making certain not to give them any ground, if possible pushing a bit forwards.

And Then I show up and violently murder everyone with Magazine-fed automatic crossbows.
