As depressing of an ending as it has, I'm pleased to see that I brought down the biggest undead of them all... And I half expected SPOILER. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead. I really, really, really, really hate undead. With a passion.

Go with the demon. Harder to kill, more resistant to everything, better melee (should it ever come to that), and it seems that they have more spells. I'm not sure, but a Drake Lord might be better than either of them. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead. I really, really, really, really hate undead.

Hey, it's the same reason I made up an NPC faction to control Woodsmuir and chunks of Vantanas.

I seem to remember Niemand saying that he changed the scripts so that every terrain type was unblocked (including blackness), so he could walk anywhere. I think that'd be the only way to go about it. On the other hand, he went straight to the last dungeon and got slaughtered. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games."

(dusts off fresh post) Dikiyoba, I have a feeling that you'd be able to cope with this RP. Maybe once the script is completed, anyway. Before I forget, I have this to say to Goldenking: No undead for you. :P Residual magic rules! -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games."

OoC: Before I begin, I'd like to dedicate this first scene to Dikiyoba. Thanks for the inspiration. IC: --------------- Lerois sat at the edge of the ruins in Kriszan, watching a few crumbled buildings smoulder pathetically. Behind him, he heard the grumbling of the Hunter soldiers who'd been ordered to move the bodies of the slain to a quiet part of town. He would need peace of mind for the ritual he had been ordered to undertake. Getting up to follow the last corpse away from the ruins, Lerois readied the spells in his memory. Tygra had ordered a small army of undead, which had initially surprised all of the mages serving under him. Few of them were trained in any form of necromancy (Lerois was one of the few), and there weren't many mages among the Hunters to begin with. But after a speech from Tygra, every aspect of the plan made perfect sense to them. (Lerois couldn't help but admire his leader's charisma, and always thought of him as a truly blessed individual) A quiet thump marked the arrival of the last corpse, and Lerois settled down into a small wooden chair. The building he'd chosen had been incredibly tranquil before the invasion, much more so than his fearless leader's Garden of Tranquility, which had been ruined and charred in the invasion. The guards exited, and Lerois set to work chanting, making the usual set of hand motions over the dead. The bodies began to glow with a sickening red light, and white light shone out of closed eyes. The spell was going admirably, and Lerois was excited about being able to report a success to Tygra. And then, the spell sped up. He hadn't willed it to do so, but the bodies were soon standing up of their own accord, and the first signs of undead-awareness were creeping into their dead, slack faces. One of them let out a sickening wail, as freshly created zombies are so prone to doing, and it echoed off the walls of the damaged building. Lerois was growing concerned... this shouldn't be happening. He considered cutting the spell short and calling for backup, but he remembered too many stories about leaving dangerous spells such as this unfinished. He'd lost a cousin to a Bolt of Fire which had never been finished. They'd never found the poor guy's left arm. The light surrounding the undead suddenly changed colors, from a dull red to a bright green, and the zombies' movements grew more erratic. And then, they collapsed, the light in their eyes going out abruptly. Lerois fell back down into the chair, stunned by the recoil from the failed spell. Something had interrupted the spell, but he couldn't think what. In fact, he felt that he couldn't think about much of anything, because he quickly fell unconscious. An hour later, the guards found him dead in the building, the bodies gone. A fine layer of dust coated the ground, and a group of small trees had broken through the floor. When Lerois' body was examined in detail by a Hunter coroner, they found his stomach to be stuffed full of leaves. --------------- OoC: Maybe some more later tonight, as I need to develop things back in the archipelago. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.

quote:This reminds me of Nephilim Mystery... or more specifically, one of the few novel parts of Nephilim Mystery. Also, I recall one town in Tinraya in A3 which had a few of these monstrosities. I hate them, as I hate anything that all but requires downing an invulnerability potion or protection brew in order to kill. EDIT: And once they've been installed in a Soul Crystal, I find that summoned Wyrms never do their darkness-breathing ability. Quite a letdown, though they can still pack a moderately-sized punch in melee.

Hm... most boring spell for all of the Trilogy? Terror in A3. In A4, it was almost useable. In BoA, it has some value. But in A3 it was pathetic. Most boring monster? I'm tempted to say either chitrach larva or Alien Beasts. I mean, with the Beasts, you're at the end of the game, so you expect something really tough, right? And then you get to Tinraya, and find out that they're just a bunch of melee-focused monsters. I mean seriously, Slow will take them out of a battle. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead. I really, really, really, really hate undead. With a passion.
