Strong shot to your head messes up the brain fatally.


*** You just got knocked the fuck out!

<<insert about 12 minutes of people who don't know how to LK>>

The world before you dissolves into a grainy montage of color...

You find yourself wandering amidst endless streaming light and vast nothingness. This place feels torn between two powers, polar opposites vying for your loyalty. You are surrounded by the spirits of those who could not choose. The only way out seems to be through light or darkness.

Time has no meaning as you wander aimlessly amidst the uncomfortable tugging for your attention. Hopelessness washes over dreams you once held like the creeping tide of doom.

After what could be moments, or perhaps an eternity, the goddess Lorminstra finds you wandering in the endless space and speaks soothingly to you. She gently reassembles the pieces of your tattered soul and then, taking you by the hand, the goddess leads you back to mortality...

You feel drained!
[Temple, Altar]

Obvious exits: out

*** You just decayed, mother fucker!


I only play this guy on his lumnis because I have a different warrior for my main... I get bored of this "hamstring, mstrike, hamstring, mstrike" business... it kicks ass but any time hamstring misses POW something bad happens! I just lack the patience to keep up with it! I just want to see him off my account and not into the archives... Here are his freshly decayed stats!

You are currently wearing and carrying:

a golden wand
a blackened leather bankbook
a gold-traced deep crimson breastplate
a worn leather sword belt with a dull vultite buckle
a pair of black broadcloth breeches
some slender bronzed leather boots with square gold buckles

The leather sword belt has a bright crimson vultite longsword in its left-hand scabbard and a vaalin-hilted scarlet vaalorn longsword in its right-hand scabbard.

Both swords are +20 and flaring (fire and lightning, respectively). The vaalorn weighs 5 pounds (main hand) and the vultite 4 pounds (off hand). Breastplate is +20

Your hands snap to the hilts of your scarlet vaalorn longsword and crimson vultite longsword and deftly draw them from the scabbards on your leather sword belt!

An Arachne acolyte swings a war hammer at you!
AS: +275 vs DS: +105 with AvD: +37 + d100 roll: +66 = +273
... and hits for 35 points of damage!
Strike to the chest breaks a rib!

Buyer pays transfer fee to get him off my account.
NO fixskills.
Sold when a mysterious number of hours (probably about 12) have passed with no other bids overriding yours

FYI, I did this before and got $5 for my burghal wizard and DID carry through with the transaction. If you win it for a silver, you will be expected to transfer him

Can I just buy the swordbelt if it's going to the archives anyway?

Lomoriond

I will strip his gear off and sell it if I do end up archiving him.... SOMEONE has to want a free warrior!

Theres nothing wrong with him, aside from a rousing lack of TD (typical of warriors)

Heh if that was RR this afternoon, I remember laughing at the thought net when they were trying to figure out how to save you.

I'll give you $0.01.

Asha

You're gonna go back to GS, Bob?

No, I'm not going to start playing, but how can I refuse? It's a penny.

Lomoriond
06-02-2007, 06:06 PM
Wasn't RR, was landing... someone fogged out to me and tried to drag me back to down, but succeeded in letting me decay. I was like.. how do you get far enough along to be able to fog and not know how to LK someone?

And then I thought... this is what happens when people buy characters... reminding me I wanted to sell this pointy eared bastard...

Current bid is 2 pence to Sean2... sold at 2 AM PST if no other bids surface

Asha

If you'd catch your breath and settle down you could get a mil five for the lot I guess.

Lomoriond
06-02-2007, 06:34 PM
You mistake my sudden drive to get rid of this character as being upset over the decay... he's actually a very capable warrior, I just don't play him.

I've had him up for sale before at 1mil and 2mil, and didn't get a buyer, thus the new 1 coin MB.

Asha

Gotchya!

SOMEONE has to want a free warrior!

Except he's not free... the transfer fee is $15, right?

Same way you do your rogue and other characters ...

...

... with a blindfold on, and your computer firmly bolted down to your desk.

It's NOT bolted!

Those are called wing-nuts.
