*I have edited this only to make it easier to read. (I am a terrible typist, and I did fix SOME spelling) It isn't the best rp ever, but by far one of the more enjoyable assists I've had, and I thought I'd share it. Also note, while talking in the Bank (before I requested the assist) where this all takes place, a turnip farmer came in for silvers, and was on a sprite quest at the time...

>assist request if I truly *needed* manna I would make this more urgent, But i seem to be plagued with the Rogue Bug Disease that was going around a couple days ago. When can I expect to get all 3 of my manna points back?
Your request has been sent to the GMs currently on duty.
You are number 1 in the queue.
(NOTE ADDED--very fast response as well!--)

You calmly say, "I have not had any manna for several days now."

You calmly ask, "Do you think i am sick?"

Kelau rubs you gently.

Speaking in broken common, Kelau says, "Ye dun look ill."

Kelau reaches under her leather sheath and gives something a little poke. A speckled baby gecko tattoo emerges from underneath and wanders over to her arm before settling down.

Kelau's baby gecko tattoo squirms and wriggles about as she plants her lips upon its face.

Kelau grins.

You calmly say, "I feel all right as long as I dont try to... well. use any manna."

You scratch your left earlobe with your right forefinger.

Speaking in broken common, Kelau says, "Whas maannaah."

You calmly say, "I seem to be severed from the manna stream."

Kelau ponders.

*** Host Saethi is here to answer your assist. ***

Saethi waves to you.

You calmly say, "That energy that mages and empaths and cleric and such tap into for power."

You calmly exclaim, "Ah!"

You beam happily at Saethi!

Saethi strikes a heroic pose.

You calmly say, "I think i am sick."

Saethi frowns.

Saethi exclaims, "That's horrible!"

Speaking in broken common, Kelau says, "Hmm I nere hear of such thin."

Speaking in broken common, Kelau says, "Bu seems trouble ye."

Kelau rubs you gently.


Saethi tried to join your group, but your group status is closed. Type "GROUP OPEN" to let her join you.

You calmly say, "I am diseased from sitting in the bog i am certain."

Kelau gasps.

You gently take hold of Saethi's hand.

You gently take hold of Kelau's hand.

You calmly say, "I havent tapped into the manna stream for some time now."

Kelau turns to face Saethi.

Kelau curtsies.

You calmly say, "And hurt my nerves early as i forgot I had none."

You sigh.

Speaking in broken common, Kelau says, "Allo."

You calmly say, "And i hear a young one kept dyig from it."

You calmly say, "I dont wish to die."

Kelau's face turns slightly pale.

You frown.

Speaking in broken common, Kelau asks, "Die?"

You nod.

You calmly say, "He was raised, then fell to the ground in colvulsions."

You calmly say, "I assume he died of heavy shock."

Kelau's baby gecko tattoo seems to grow increasingly more restless as it mills about. Finally, it gathers itself and wanders over to her chest before settling down.

You calmly say, "Each pulse drained him of life."

You sigh.

You calmly say, "It was sad to watch."

Speaking in broken common, Kelau asks, "Ye fixer of such ailmen?"

Saethi says, "Oh I'm sure it was."

You nod.

You calmly say, "Thr raiser is a good friend of mine, and knew i was having problems with manna."

You calmly say, "And sggested it might be a problem with all rogues."

You calmly say, "And was reported and i thuought fixes..."

You calmly say, "But i m not well at all."

You frown.

Speaking in broken common, Kelau says, "No goo mus fin ye cure."

Kelau nods to you.

Saethi whispers, "Looking into it to see what I can find for you."

You calmly say, "I thought of the dwarves and the red disease."

You calmly say, "Durely i could not have such an ailment."

You frown.

You calmly say, "I am elf."

You scoff.

You calmly say, "I do not get plagued."

You roll your eyes.

You quietly whisper to Saethi, "Thank you."

Saethi whispers, "Did you have mana before the fix?"

You quietly whisper to Saethi, "Yes."

Mana: 0/0 max

Saethi says, "If I can't, I'll refer you to someone who can."

Saethi smiles at you.

You calmly say, "Apparantly, my body thinks it has no manna to store, but i did have 3 whole points before."

You gaze proudly at your surroundings.

Kelau removes a sculpted golvern-spined quill suspended on a narrow chain from in her single-strapped knapsack.

Kelau removes a thin black leather volume from in her single-strapped knapsack.

You tap your left cheek with your left thumb.

You idly scratch your nose.

(Kelau writes down a few notes in her language journal)
You calmly say, "If you understand."

You idly scratch your nose.

You sigh.

Kelau attaches a sculpted golvern-spined quill suspended on a narrow chain to her wrist.

Kelau put a thin black leather volume in her single-strapped knapsack.

Speaking in broken common, Kelau says, "I mus rememer this maana ye talk of."

You calmly say, "Not maah-nah... say i learned, mann- ah."

You cough.

Speaking carefully in broken common, Kelau says, "Mann ah."

You calmly say, "This non manna ness is affecting my speech obviously."

You make a horrendous warthog-like noise.

You blink.

Saethi whispers, "Sorry it's taking so long, still researching for you."

You quietly whisper to Saethi, "No worries."

You quietly whisper to Saethi, "Im not as impatient as cellesta is."

You tap your foot impatiently.

Speaking carefully in broken common, Kelau says, "As been nice speak with ye."

Kelau curtsies to you.

You nod to Kelau.

Speaking carefully in broken common, Kelau says, "Shall see gain."

Kelau smiles.

You calmly ask, "If you see Ledilu, will you tell her I was looking for he?"

Kelau curtsies to Saethi.

You calmly say, "Her."

You frown.

Kelau nods.

You calmly say, "Thank you."

Kelau waves.

You wave to Kelau.

Kelau just went out.

Saethi whispers, "Have you tried logging out and coming back in?"

You calmly say, "Some child had the nerve to drag a wounded child in here."

You quietly whisper to Saethi, "I have been in and out for a couple days now. I pick in the bog for my older player."

Saethi nods to you.

You calmly say, "This is certainly not the infirmary. I told her to leave."

You wave your hand in a dismissive gesture.

Saethi gazes in wonder at her surroundings.

You calmly say, "But she left blood."

Saethi says, "Maybe she had to get money to pay for healing."

You calmly say, "So watch you feet."

Saethi gulps.

Saethi tilts her head down.

You take a few steps to your left.
Where are you trying to go?

Saethi says, "Good, you missed that spot."

You grumble.

You nod.

Saethi whispers, "According to what I've found, it looks like you'll need to train in harness power to get mana."

You calmly say, "She was beggin someone else for healing silvers."

You shake your head, clucking your tongue.

You calmly say, "She shoudl have earned her own."

Saethi says, "Oh the poor thing, must have been destitute."

You calmly say, "She looked able bodied enough, dragging that bleeding child around."

You frown.

Saethi whispers, "Your new base mana without training in harness power is 0 points."

You quietly whisper to Saethi, "But i had three before with no harness."

Saethi says, "Perhaps she was someone's bodyguard."

Saethi ponders.

You calmly say, "Well a por one then."

You calmly say, "Poor."

You calmly say, "In both aspects."

You calmly say, "The child was nearly dead."

You blink.

Saethi whispers, "They must have changed the way it is calculated."

You grumble.

Sumpter just arrived.

You calmly say, "Very well."

Sumpter just went out.

Saethi whispers, "As far as I can tell, your mana is correct."

You calmly say, "I suppose I can afford one session of learning in that area."

You calmly say, "It was three."

Saethi whispers, "Yes, one training should get you back to three."

You calmly say, "Training in magic for me is quite expensive."

You calmly say, "I am not attuned to it naturally."

You sigh.

Saethi says, "Magic scares me."

Saethi's face turns slightly pale.

You calmly say, "I need very little."

Saethi nods to you.

Saethi smiles.

Saethi asks, "Was there anything else I can help with this morning?"

You calmly say, "But I dont wish to keel over and have that young girl come drag my injured incompacited body here to the bank to try to save me."

You turn to face Saethi.

Saethi says, "Oh I don't blame you there, being dragged over the rough streets and all...."

Saethi shudders.

You calmly say, "Could you have this carpet cleaned? I come here often."

You fold your arms over your chest.

Saethi says, "I'm thinking the teller should do it."

You calmly say, "Otherwise, no thank you, you've been very helpful."


Saethi says, "He needs more to do anyway."

(Cellesta glances at the teller)

[United Bank of City-States]
Thick aubergine carpeting and heavy dark green velvet drapes help to muffle sound inside the bank, but the faint *clink* of coins can still be heard filtering from behind the bank's teller, who sits patiently waiting to help the next patron. A small but elegant wrought iron chandelier hangs from the ceiling above, its amber glaesine globes casting a warm hue across the room. You also see a silver sign.
Also here: GameHost Saethi
Obvious exits: out

Saethi curtsies to you.

Saethi exclaims, "Good day to you!"

Saethi waves.

You calmly say, "I don;t think he's of much use."

You calmly say, "And you."

You smile.

You curtsy.

Saethi vanishes in a puff of smoke!

I had a fun assist last night with... is it Gervis? I have his name at home.

He drank all his ale before seeing Entress. Darn dwarf wouldn't produce any for her! heh.

I love the book he has, I'll have to paste it here later.

Yeah, you did some really good roleplaying for awhile, until I saw this..


You calmly say, "Apparantly, my body thinks it has no manna to store, but i did have 3 whole points before."

I stopped reading after that. :/ Hopefully you got it all squared away and your character is back in working condition. Kuudos again for the rp.

Granted, I haven't played GS in well over a year so seldom read logs and I am not as up to date on new things in the game but what is up with the mobile tattoo? Kept rereading that line because I was sure I must've misread.

Divity,
Yes I saw that as well. I'm certainly not perfect. A shame you didn't read the rest however, it did get as amusing as a slightly indifferent callous elf can get. *smile* thanks for the kind words!
