alex: okay, everyone loot the bodies - they're highwaymen, so if they weren't TOTALLY incompetent, they should have something *the lupine says, starting to rifle through the pockets of the recently expired and unarmed bandit* (see what i did thar?)
alex: you know...i knew he was there - i was waiting for him to commit to the swing to roll away so he would end this poor TRIBBLE's misery *he jerks a thumb to the unrecognizable mass of raw hamburger that used to be a human face*
*alex unleashes the fiery blades which immediately beeline for the nearest bandit bowman, while the lupine himself dashes forward and leaps on another bowman, doing exactly what he threatened to do earlier by ripping an arm off and proceeding to bash the brigand's face in with it*
alex: you may be so foolhardy to think you can take us on...but are your men? *he says, slowly casting his gaze over each in turn, eyes glowing brightly in the darkness of the forest, his fangs fully bared - and just for added effect, he also conjures Blades of Fire* also...we take a shot after this *he murmurs quietly to…
alex: [Intimidate] as tempting as the offer is, i'm going to have to say no...here's my counteroffer - you all leave right this second, and i won't tear your arms off and beat you to death with them!
don't really need multiple tubes when you can fire as many as 6 torpedoes from a single one (and i'd like to know how they manage that, because the tubes aren't much bigger than the torpedoes themselves - at least, they weren't in TUC, and that was only instance i know where we saw the inside of a tube)
alex: that's what i get for opening my big mouth *he mutters as he quickly begins casting defensive spells like Resistance and Shield for the group, followed by True Strike and Magic Weapon, then lastly Mage Armor on the squishier members of the party*
alex: so how long before we run into wolf packs or a bear or something? in all the fantasy RPGs i used to play, you couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting an enemy, no matter where you were...
*alex grabs a relatively straight stick off the ground and lays it flat on his right paw, then leans in and whispers 'point me', casting the spell that will allow the stick to rotate in the general direction of their objective*
enterprise in discovery never actually fired any torpedoes - at least not during the control fight, so we don't know the constitution's fire rate in discovery
alex: not at the cost of someone else's livelihood - i have absolutely no compunction from tomb-robbing, no matter how much the dead may moan about desecration...they DON'T need those things anymore, but those hunters need their supplies
alex: a 'whatever the hell that is'? you'd think none of these people had ever seen lythari before *he mock-grumps, crossing his arms as he stares at their group*
alex: ...really? everything you own fits in a single sack? even the destitute in the middle ages owned more than that...*he adds quietly so the mob doesn't hear it*
alex: you wanted to drink alcohol from this world - drinking straight from a bottle shouldn't trouble you and i am - s.emen isn't the only way to pass on genetic code, you know
alex: i am...the strain of lycanthropy on my earth originated from lycaon *he says while digging through his bag for several bottles of high-grade tequila, which he sets on a stump near the campsite after retrieving them*
alex: you think it's gross? i'm the one who actually had to be NEAR those individuals - which i naturally tried to limit my contact with as much as possible - and i've been a werewolf since i was three, so i've been dealing with stink just about my entire life
alex: raneson's right, though - you take major risks with your health in any setting like this, no matter what you do...hell, there were still people in MY time that thought daily showers were optional, never mind in this era where bathing was usually treated with derision by the common folk, even when they could afford to…
(because that's the only game series i actually KNOW the names of more than one alcohol from, if i know any at all...or if they even HAVE unique names for alcohol)
