Gob Stoppers

[Architech]

It has long been custom for new adventurers to set out from the city and enter the woods. Soon they come across the caverns owned by the evil race of goblins. These goblins pillage the countryside and hoard great treasures. It is your job to quest out and enter their caverns to kill them all and take their treasures...

Well...that's what I'd say, if you weren't a goblin. You are a diminutive creature relegated by the fates to live in the deep caverns and die by any one of a thousand gruesome and potentially hilarious fatal events. Whatever you feel, be it fear or greed, you are to defend your home from those pesky humans who want to steal your shiny things.

This RPG tosses you into a party of goblins who must defend their home from adventurers...while defending themselves from the dangers of the deep caves and other goblins.



Classes

Goblin: Average goblin. Great as sword fodder for the level 1 Adventurer. Goblins are jacks of all trades, most of which lead to a painful and early death.

Strength: 2
Stamina: 2

Bully: Some goblins are bigger than others. Perhaps they survived the previous winter's raids, or they simply get a lot of exercise while avoiding death in the tunnels. Whatever the reason, Bullies are large and tend to take charge. They can usually find (or requisition) better gear than their smaller friends. Many Bullies fancy themselves great warriors, and their comrades are all too happy to let them charge at a foe, while they pick a new leader.

Trickster: All goblins can be crafty with each other. But some goblins are crafty by the standards of even human children. These goblins tend to find ways of killing their enemies with more subtlety than the average rock-to-brain methodology of most goblins. These tactics range from creating small landslides to kill tribal leaders to shoveling poisonous fungus down the throats of those with shinier objects.

Tinkerer: Some goblins are not just crafty in a murderous way. Some of them are intelligent enough to create odd contraptions and tools. Some of these wondrous items help in seasonal harvest. Some of these items help defend the cave. But the most exciting items have some ability to kill those who intrude in the cave, as well as the poor goblins testing the item

Shaman: Every tribe of goblin has some members with magical abilities. Most of these primitive priests serve as conduits to the god mother who blesses the moss harvest. Some, however, can wield both protective and destructive magic in a way that seems almost planned. Shamans are viewed with the closest thing to respect goblins can muster, fear.

Traits

Artistic: Some Goblins can use the various fungi and minerals to paint. It's rare. It's frowned upon. It's never mentioned, but it happens. (No Bully)

Crazed: Some goblins are truly fanatical. This often shows itself in combat as the goblin become a flailing flurry of blows. Crazed goblins are often greatly honored amongst their tribe; however, they usually don't get to enjoy it for long.

Curiosity: Sometimes you investigate things and discover something special. Remember, curiosity killed the goblin....just like knives, arrows, stones...and anything else that ever encountered a goblin.

Dark Vision: All goblins can see in the dark, but some can see even better in the deepest dark. Of course most end up wishing they couldn't see what was in the caves.

Evasive: Some goblins can easily roll out of the way of harm. this combat maneuver usually ends with the goblin diving into some other danger.

Lucky: Some goblins carry a rabbits foot or clover...some have even strapped entire live bunnies to themselves all in the name of fighting fate. Some goblins are just naturally lucky. If no other evidence existed...they are still alive, a feat impressive for any goblin.

Liar: Sometimes a goblin just has to lie...

Nervous: Some goblins are even more afraid than others. These tend to live long through pure cowardice. Nervous goblins can often detect dangers of which their comrades are completely unaware. (No Bully, Shaman, Tinkerer)

Netter: You have been dragged on the various hunts for creatures in the depths of the cave. Sometimes netters get greedy and get carried away by the massive creatures they attempt to capture. Netters know the best ways to use goblin nets. (No Tinkerer, Bully)

Ranger: At some point a poor goblin found himself lost in the woods. There he viewed an elf ranger lay waste to her enemies with a longbow. He was immediately enamored with this concept and ran back to his cave to share the joys of ranged combat. He soon invented the Goblin shortbow. This unnamed goblin was later found dead on a makeshift archery range. Goblin rangers carry on the long tradition of trying to shoot enemies and then running away. (No Bully, Shaman, Tinkerer)

Sprinter: When you need to run, you need to run fast

Stick 'Em With The Pointy End: Some goblins have clearly trained with a weapon and know which end to hold. These goblins are more skilled at hitting their enemies with melee weapons. (No Tinkerer, Shaman)

Tester: Every now and then an unlucky goblin will be chosen to test a new device or to be the target of a spell. Those goblins that survive the tests become more resilient to magic and sometimes even blowing up. (Goblin Only)

Trap Master: Goblins are tricky bastards. They defend themselves not through might, but rather through devious traps and of course countless replacements. A goblin can make a quick name for itself with a well placed trap...unless it is sprung by a bully, then the trapper wants to remain nameless. (No Bully, Shaman)

Troll Herder: Somehow you got relegated to this job somewhere in your life. Even more miraculous...you survived. You are pretty skilled at fighting various monsters, or rather...not getting eaten.

Weaponized: All goblins use found weapons. Some goblins find pretty big weapons. Most cannot use them well, but some learn eventually. They eventually learn to use it like a great weapon. (No Trickster, Tinkerer, Shaman)


Combo Maneuvers

Get in There! (Bully and 2+ Goblins): A Bully is a scary thing...sometimes scarier than whatever lies ahead. Goblins know that they will be beaten if they don't do what bullies say, so when they get a command they find some way to try...or at least get away from the bully. The goblins fight harder when the bully is watching.

Rally (6+ Goblins): Goblins fight better in groups. They tend to work themselves into a fervor as more get together. While a single goblin is anything but scary, a group of them can bring down even a battle hardened foe.

How Far? (2 Bullies): "I can beat that." Sometimes bullies will throw other goblins...usually to get them into the fight. Often the fight is forgotten in name of the new sport.

Hold him! I'll stab him in the gibbly bits! (3 Goblins and 1+ Tricksters): Goblins can overwhelm foes simply by holding them down. It's then the task of a sneaky goblin to stab the victim in the soft spots.

I'm right behind you! (Trickster and 4+ Allies): Tricksters will use their allies as a distraction to get away from a fight. This tried and true tactic has kept many a trickster alive for up to minutes after their allies are slaughtered.

Here, hold this a minute (Tinkerer and Goblin): Every tinkerer needs a guinea pig. When the tiny rodents can't be found, the scrawnier goblins nearby will do. The poor goblin will be assigned to hold anything from a spring-loaded shield to a fire breathing gun to a bomb. This often ends in almost as many enemies dying as goblins.

Casting Circle (2+ Shaman): When multiple Shaman gather together, strange and amazing things can happen. Having a buddy around expands the Shaman creativity and the will sometimes cast spells meant for Bullies on Tinkerers. This can have wonderful effects or disastrous results, as the more shaman that are casting...the more chance for an accident. One or both Shaman are prone to exploding*


Shaman Spells

Mend: One of the Shaman's main jobs is to cure the wounds of the tribe. Some can go so far as to replace lost limbs. It is for this reason that Shaman are not killed out of fear.

Zap: Shamans have the ability to unleash a bolt of magical energy at their foes. While this is not usually fatal, it is disruptive and surprising

Could be Bigger: Shamans are often at the top of the fear pecking order, but it's nice to have a bully for back up. Shamans like to make their bully allies bigger than normal with their gobbie magic (Bully)

Dark Shroud: The shaman casts forth a small dark cloud to conceal the movements of his fellows. Many shaman find it funny to place the cloud only over their allies heads, so that they only think they are unseen (Trickster)

Power Up: There is a fine line between genius and insanity....for most races. For goblins...there are no lines. So to is there a blur between magic and technology. Tinkerers need power for many of their gadgets, but lack the understanding to build batteries and generators. Instead they rely on a Shaman to pour some power into their devices. As with everything in the life of a goblin...this often ends terribly (Tinkerer)

Channeling: Sometimes a lead Shaman will require that his peons aid his power. A Shaman can channel his own power into another Shaman giving him even greater power. An irritating Zap can become a fatal bolt with such power. Of course it is dangerous for both casters involved, as the magic can backfire killing either Shaman....or both* (Shaman)

Conduit: Shaman can cast their spells through the bodies of nearby goblins. Most of the time this will injure or even kill the conduit*, but it allows the Shaman to cast around corners and from safety of longer range (Goblin)

*Burst: Often conduits explode...much to the delight of goblin spectators. This burst of magical energy does damage to everything around the conduit and can even flare back to the Shaman

Notes on gameplay:

In every ACTION post, you must list the following:

Class:
Trait:
Item Equipped:


If you post without this it will be ignored as you talking to the team



You can stack goblins to get higher, to reach things, and get range or sight.

Goblins can lift any one goblin of any class except a Bully
A Bully can lift any class, including another Bully.
A bully may also choose to lift a goblin, holding another goblin...thus making a three tall stack


Items:

You may only have 1 item equipped at a time because goblins are flighty and have short attention spans. Items are lost when a goblin dies.

Goblin Sack: Every player has an inventory that they may maintain over the course of a goblin's life. Items in the sack disappear if the goblin dies. A goblin that survives a level may keep the sack, even if class is changed.

Goblin Vault: Occasionally you will be given the option to put items into the vault. These items will then not be lost upon death. The vault may be accessed at the beginning of levels and at certain points in the game. The vault is communally shared. Placing items into the vault, or getting items from the vault will be rewards for surviving over time rather that crashing through a life


The next post is the Goblin Vault where you can see the list of items available (you may never take more than one item from the vault at a time)

************************************************** ****

The chief seems extra grumpy today. Even his pet rat is agitated as he sits upon the large mushroom throne in the cavern.

"Boys! Boy!" you and your comrades slowly and suspiciously approach the crazed king. You suspect it has to do with that band of adventurers from last week. They came in and killed a dozen goblins before taking some treasure and returning to the human town.

"Do ya know why we lost yesterday?" several answers and calls resound

"They were bigger"
"We forgot to use da pointy end"
"They killed more of us than we did of them?"...
..."We didn't kill any of them"
..."Oh right...well that seems like a good reason then"

The king silences the crowd with the ceremonial throwing of the large rock, which brains the honored goblin.

"We lost because they have better and shinier stuff...and magic!" There is a small zapping sound followed by a concussive boom..."Real magic. That's why we're gonna raid the town and their wizard's tower."

There was a cacophonous and resounding silence.

"Who wants to go show those humans and their wizard who's boss!?"

More silence

"Ok you lot there, and you over there...and I see you sneaking out...you're going too"

And thus did you and your comrades get picked to go raid the wizard's tower.

Your adventure will begin soon. But first you must choose a team name, colors and banner!

(this will also serve as time to ask any questions, as i do already have the first map set up)

Wizard Tower Raid
50 goblins total

Class Maximums for the Mission
Bully - 5
Trickster - 5
Tinkerer - 5
Shaman - 3

Any of these classes can be replaced by a normal gob in the totals...they are not on top of the total. After 50 goblins die...the mission is over. No class other than Goblin can have more than 2 active members at any one time.



For every level of the mission that your goblin lives after his first, you may place one item in the vault. For every second level your goblin lives after the first, he may take on a second Trait. In this way you are rewarded for not just dying haphazardly

All goblins will be beginning with their default items:
Goblin- NA
Bully- NA
Trickster- Butter Knife
Tinkerer- Wrench
Shaman- Staff

"Since you be da red thinker-upper, you supply the paint for da bannah. Only place to get red round 'ere is blood...." The artistic gobbo smiles maliciously as he advances on the bully with a sharpened paint brush.

The Goblin drags a slightly smaller goblin into the fray, quickly lashing him to a pole.

Level 1, Round 1, 50 Goblins remain

You storm into the town along with the rest of the goblin tribe. There is much havoc as peasants flee, goblins throw rocks, and guards slay goblins. Your group make their way towards the tower, and seeing guards at the front gate, elect to hop into the sewer. The sewer is a dark in dirty place...and soon you find yourselves on the first floor...but you are not alone. Giant rats are running towards you. They seem angry and terrified, and behind them looms several magical oozes. Perhaps the combination of the sewer waters and the magic of the tower. It's time to raid!


*Remember you must post class, trait and equipped item in every thread (along with anything you pick up and put in your sack).
**Don't forget combos and don't forget stacking when needed
***The world is very interactive and about exploring the level, you just need to make it to the other door

Gob Stoppers Turn 2: 50 goblins

**A note about game notes. I'll do a short write-up for each player and include any traits that come into effect during the write-up. Note that the trait may belong to someone else but be listed after the effect on someone else.


Tone: You and Silas run to the armor and jump upon it wrenching the sword free. The weapon falls upon Silas (lucky) and clocks him on the head. the small goblin yelps and the weapon clatters backwards.

Silas: You see the rats coming and run back squealing (nervous) as you try to get to the sword.

Lexius: You dive behind Drakon

Scythes: You grab the sconce which is quite large and on the floor. You manage to lift it just enough to tip it over upon yourself. Flaming oil splatters everywhere. Sneggy, Silas and Scythes are covered in oil and fire. There is much screaming for a few moments as the goblins die. (-3 goblins).

Beeva: You pick up a small shard of stone and hurl it forward striking one of the rats and causing it to skitter a bit.

Drakon: your bellowing is as usual, quite scary to your fellows. Tone and Beeva will be granted a bonus to any combat. You then pick up Lexius and hurl him forward. This attack seems to hurt both Lexius and the Rat. Both recover and Lexius stands just in time to be swarmed and torn apart by the giant rodents (-1 trickster, -1 goblin)

Nal: Your bellowing just adds to the chorus of Drakon's own commands. You do however spot the spilled sword and pick it up (weaponized). You may use the weapon by listing it as your equipped item. [Decorative Sword] gained

Pyro: You see several suits of armor and torches that could be knocked over (trap master), but you see nothing that could be used to specifically make a trap.

Sneggy: Dead before your action (I decided to just go in first post first action method).

Silas, Sneggy, Scythes, and Lexius: Pick another gob.

Remaining: 46 goblins, 3 Tricksters, 4 Tinkerers, 3 Bullies, 3 Shaman

No more than two of each special class may be used at one time.

Trait: Evasive

Run forward and tempt out a single rat so we can gang bash it. Dodge like the evasive bastard I am.

For some reason, the first thought to come to my mind was "Evasive maneuvers failed, goblin gets eaten alive." With our current streak, it seems likely to happen. We've lost a few goblins already and all rats still exist :P

Scythes II runs up to the suit of armour and grabs a random piece of armour, curious to see if it fits on a bully. If so they can get geared up and fight so he doesn't have to.

[MkNalsheen]

Pushing a goblin in front of him, the bully waits for a rat to nom the bait, before swinging the sword at it in a killy manner.

Rush towards the suit of armour and climb to the top, once there, wait for a rat to pass and then push against the wall to cause the suit of armour to fall on top of the rat, hopefully impaling it or something.

[tone.tran]

stop spoiling the game, tone

*Whistles to himself in the corner* :D:D:D I'm just sadistic, I want to see stupid gobbos running to their death. (as long as we finish the task :S)

[Architech]

Beeva just a reminder to check the thread.

DrakonTheNightLord why are killing off the limited edition special characters

[Beeva]

(Sorry, very busy couple of days)

I'm gonna try and set fire to summat using the fire (rag or stick) and herd those nasty rats towards that fire.

[Architech]

Turn 3, 46 goblins remain

Tone: You scramble up the side of the bully...he seems not to notice for the moment.

Silas: You point at the rat and a green bolt of lighting jumps from your finger singing the air and ears of nearby goblins. The wounded rat seizes and flips over dead.

Lexius: You do the same as the other shaman, but the bolt explodes on your finger and sends you to the ground.

SGS: You continue to cower behind the larger goblin bully

Sneggy: You run forward and look as appetizing as possible, and when a rat darts for you, you dive back towards the group. You do trip though and fall flat on your face amongst your comrades

Drakon: You are unable to grab SGS, because there is a goblin on your shoulders

Scythes: You reach out and pull part of the armor down You dive out of the way as the entire suit topples down to the ground upon the nearby rat. You take note that all the armor seems to fit the Bully, but the torso covers from neck to legs and the legs cover from feet to neck.

Nal: You watch as the remaining rat descends upon Beeva, who is trampled and killed quickly. You then step forward quickly and slash out with a heavy swing (weaponized). You split open the rat's head.

Pyro: You plan seems to have worked so masterfully that you were not even involved.

Beeva: Sadly you have been sacrificed as bait to the rats. You must pick another goblin class and trait to continue.

45 goblins remain, 3 Tricksters, 3 Bullies, 4 Tinkerers, 1 Shaman

Bully and Shaman are maxed at the moment.

I'm not trying to necessarily update everyday. Just getting the game ingrained in your forum checking

[Beeva]

Juh? Whut? I thought I'd supplied an action? :s

[Architech]

Yep sorry... scythes was the one missing from my list...my bad

[sneggy]

juh Beeva just winding you up

[tone.tran]

See Architech, it's useful!

Anyways, do we have some sort of time limit on responding? Or is there an auto-action type rule in place? I find it helps the game move along faster. Could be after 24 hours, goblin does some random suicidal crazy action with high risk but high reward.

[sneggy]

Like attached gauntletted fist from suit of armour to his own nose and 'supermans' it via leaping onto a slime monster nose first hoping that counts as punching?

[Architech]

Turn 4, 45 goblins remain

Silas: You fire what seems to be an incredibly powerful blast without any sort of suicidal recoil. The ooze shudders and flails with spikes ooze flying out before coming back to the center mass

Pyro: You run and fling yourself onto the torch stand (been established it cannot be lifted by you). Your weight knocks the torch down and forward, spilling oil and fire upon the ooze. The thing almost seems to scream as it burns away.

Tone: You get away with the dance, for now

Nal: You bellow and Scythes and Sneggy get a bonus in combat

Sneggy: You run forward to help, and even kick out at the torch to move it a bit. then you cheer at the victory

Beeva: You run forward and dance in victory

Lexius: You channel a powerful force from yourself into Silas, who seems to survive the process...A beam of green energy connect you both.

Drakon: You run forward and fling Tone ahead of yourself. He goes into the ooze, which closes around him. You follow quickly and soon feel the searing of your flesh as you melt. The ooze swells greatly in size as it feeds (-1 Bully, -2 goblins)

[PyroSikTh]

Class: Tinkerer
Trait: Trap Master
Item: Wrench

Use the suit of armour to rig up some sort of trebuchet or catapult, then ask Beeva to Here, Hold this a minute with the end that flings.

[DrakonTheNightLord]

Goblin
Dark Vision

Drakon II hides behind a bully, waiting to be thrown into the fray!!!!

[Guys stay away from them blobs, I'd hazard a guess that shaman magic is needed, or fire. MK should go and get the fire and like... slap the blob with it I guess :\]

[Silas]

(ooc: Pyro, whatever your flinging, set it on fire.)

Class: Shaman
Trait: Lucky

Power up! On pyro's flingy device.... if he doesn't end up making something useful, then ZZap! the ooze!

[Beeva]

Class: Gobbo
Trait: Lucky


Use the suit of armour to rig up some sort of trebuchet or catapult, then ask Beeva to Here, Hold this a minute with the end that flings.

With great misplaced trust tries to help out Pyro.

"I got it! Wot's you want me to do wiv it?"

[Architech]

power up is only for things that would otherwise need electricity and such. Also....poor trusting beeva...


Keep in mind I still go in order of posts...hence why pyro himself knocked down the torch. You need to organize help and post that you are being helped with something.

[tone.tran]

Hm, so we need to get the fire to kill the ooze, but the ooze is between us and the fire.

class: Goblin
trait: lucky

Hops on top of the remaining Bully. Must be tossed over the ooze and knock the fire onto it.

[sneggy]

Theres one fire stick on the ground by me.
I just need help carrying it preferably from a bully. or several goblins. I suggest a 4 goblin flaming lance formation!

Class: Goblin
Trait:evasive

Yells at his companions to help him grab the fire, picks it up (from the bit furthest from the fire....I'm not going to the front of the lance, evasive and all that) Waits for his companions, when they show up he screams and charges.
If they do not show up he'll amuse himself by lighting another goblin on fire.

[MkNalsheen]

Class:Bully
Trait:weaponized
Items:Decorative Sword

"Ack. Dern thing! Whussit doin? Git off me shoulders."
Moving the goblin off his shoulders, he calls for another bully to help him throw a goblin over, to get ahold of that pretty fire.

Failing that, he'll attempt to 'protect' the shamans. Also known as standing nearish them, but not exactly close enough should they kersplat themselves

[SGS]

Class: Trickster
Trait: Ranger
Weapon: Butter Knife

KILL KILL! Attack the closest rat, stab it in the eye.

[PyroSikTh]

KILL KILL! Attack the closest rat, stab it in the eye.

Rats are dead, Jim.

[sneggy]

would anybody mind helping me build flaming lance formation or as I have renamed it "Plan burny stab stab!"

[scythes]

Class: Goblin
Trait: Curious
Item: None

Scythes II does not throw a rat at the blob with Snegz, he in fact tries something with the armour. First he picks up a shin guard and tries to strap it to himself as a breastplate. Then he picks up a breastplate and tosses it on top of the ooze to see if he can make a bridge out of it. "We only be needin to get ta dat door, noone said nuffin bout keelin dee's ting's!"

[Architech]

I'll update tomorrow afternoon. Also...take note...if the item is not on the map...it is not usable unless it is an equipped item. So that fire is no longer there....also, nal? you didn't get enough info from the last 2 on the effects of the ooze?

[DrakonTheNightLord]

Ooze eats goblins and makes itself bigger by doing so... don't do that...

KILL IT WITH FIRE!!

[MkNalsheen]

Goblin bits make him stronger.... so you decide to feed it rat bits? I guess we be gobbos without much cunning :P

[sneggy]

Why cant we all get along....I may name him and try to stroke him next. Pet Blob!

[scythes]

I edited my post arch, let's see if this curious trait helps any.

[Beeva]

'Ow can we make uz sum burny fire?

(Arch: getting better internet now, so fingers crossed I'll be ok!)

[Architech]

Turn 5, 43 goblins remain

Pyro: There once was a goblin name Gobimedes who had learned from Gobrates. He built a great war machine that could fling boulders across a whole valley. Unfortunately he was squashed by a giant last winter for copyright infringement, you were on your own. You have rigged a small harness onto Beeva. The boots have just enough give to spring forward a bit with the leather strap between them. You have the helmet loaded...all other pieces are in use

Drakon: You cower behind Nal.

Silas: You draw back with both your energy and the energy being generated from Lexius. You send out a huge burst of green energy that immediately explodes back on you, throwing you to the ground.

Tone: You scamper up the bully, and are immediately thrown to the ground

Nal: you pull the small goblin up roughly then retreat back to the shamans

Sneggy: In a show of great goblin heroism you grab a giant rat corpse and move to hurl it into the ooze...only to flip over it and bonk your head in the effort. Your goblin eyes were bigger than your muscles...and the rat is bigger than you.

SGS: Perhaps in response to the rat's unwillingness to be thrown, you stab it in the eyes

Scythes: You put the shin guard on. It's a bit snug, but it works. The breast plate is a bit heavy and you don't throw it very far. Gained Equipped Item: Decorative Shin Guard

Lexius: You fire a bolt of green energy at the ooze (your channeling having been cut short in a spectacular and hilarious way). The bolt causes the Ooze to shudder and shrink back a bit.

[Silas]

Class: Shaman
Trait: Lucky

Brushes himself off and smacks lex in the back of the head.

"Oye! Careful! We conduize Tone-Tone now. Make him pop in ooze!"

Silas II waggles his fingers at tone and makes hopping dancing moves and chants "Oo choo, ka koo! Oo choo, Ka Koo!" over and over again.

Uses Tone as a conduit.

[sneggy]

Class:Goblin
Trait:Evasive

Having decided he wasnt weedy it was just the rat not wanting to leave him my goblin shall stroke the dead rat while glaring at SGS for attacking his pet(dead) rat. He names her Gloria.

With the aid of tone (hopefully) they pick her up and walk up nearby to the blob where they hug gloria and prepare to explode!

Once he has got tone and gloria in position he runs away before tone explodes.
He waves a tearful goodbye to gloria

[tone.tran]

class goblin
trait lucky

*Before Silas can do anything.*
Gobbo grabs rat and tries to grab it near ooze (if too heavy, just get close to ooze).

[scythes]

Class: Goblin
Trait: Curious
Item: Decorative shin guard (used as a breastplate)

Scythes II yells to his companions, "Come on lads, dis 'ere big chunk o' armour's too big fer me, we can make a bridge o'er da ooze an den burn 'em both wif da burn pointy stick der!" With that he tries to pick up the breastplate again to throw it on top of the ooze, hoping a couple gobbos will help him.

[DrakonTheNightLord]

Alright lads, shaman magic seems to have some effect, so lets keep at dat.

Was wondering if Nal could throw me and another goblin over the blob and at that fire bracket? Or quite possibly we need two bullies, then Nal can throw said bully to the fire bracket, and he can go crazy with it.

I'm not going to move this turn cause I'm hardly of any use at the moment.

[Architech]

bully cannot throw bully, just lift

[PyroSikTh]

Class: Tinkerer
Trait: Trap Master
Item: Wrench

Stepping back to look at his creation, he notices it somehow changed into something he wasn't trying to make and sighs. He looks at the blob and just sits down hoping the others will take care of it.

[DrakonTheNightLord]

Two goblins it is then!! MK CATAPULT! PREPARE TO LAUNCHA!!!

[sneggy]

Once I have dragged this rat up to the blob with tone I'm available. Feel free to launch me between the blobs for a fire frenzy.
For some reason I think drakon and fire frenzy are synonymous so he'd best come too.

Seeing that I'm going to be imbued with magic goodness I might as well run to the ooze and explode!!!

(If I suddenly do not have magically energy abouts me then I'll stay put, no use feeding dat ooze, aye?

[sneggy]

If I have time after I have helped tone suicide himself and gloria the rat then i shall be the goblin that bully mk throws over the blob to the fire.

[Beeva]

I'll just kind of sit here lookin pretty until someone pulls the trigger on this thing...

Class: gobbo
trait: Lucky

[Architech]

Turn 6, 43 goblins remain

Tone and Sneggy: You grab Gloria the rat and run to the ooze which begins to grab out at them.

Silas: You channel your energy into Tone, using him to zap into the ooze....presumably since you did not specify when calling out the spell name as most goblins do. The bolt hits Tone and then carries through to the ooze which shudders and retreats from grabbing the goblins. However, the spell recoil kills Tone with a sharp crack of burning ozone and breaking bones.

Scythes: You drag the breastplate towards the ooze, mewing softly for help from others.

Nal and Drak: You pick of Sneggy and hurl him over the ooze right next to the torch (6). The goblin lands on his head and breaks his neck (1).

Lexius: You presumably cast zap on the ooze, using Drakon as a conduit. The spell goes off perfectly and you shock the ooze more since Silas's attempt. The power of the two spells, significantly shrinks the ooze.

Beeva: You strike a pose

Sneggy, you must pick a new class and trait

http://www.40kforums.com/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=4245&d=1310588687

[scythes]

Scythes II sticks out his bottom lip in a pout, drops his decorative breastplate bridge, and runs up to the suit of armour and pulls off another shin guard to try to use as a shield he can carry around. He then slinks back to where the back dead rat is, opens it's mouth, and rips out the biggest tooth it can find to use a dagger. "Fine den! If ya's not gonna help me make a bridge to get to the burny pole, I'll find stuff I can use for later."

[tone.tran]

looks like zapp is working. Keep zapping the front guy and we'll try and get zombies over to the next fire to take down the second ooze. Use conduit to protect the shamans

class: goblin
trait: lucky

Runs over to the nearest bully. "hey hey, biggie, toss meh o'er the glob thing!"

[Silas]

Class: Shaman

[Architech]

using conduit is the only thing that can really hurt you...otherwise there is little chance you it blowing up in your face...and it's only the only way you've found so far...and might just be the rolls you got >.>

[sneggy]

Class: Goblin
Trait: Troll herder

Get flinged over the ooze, burn said ooze.

Come on....I cant possibly land on my head and die twice while attempting crazy shit.

[DrakonTheNightLord]

Now I'll let MK throw me forward so I can attempt to wield that fire bracket for great justice!!

Grabbing ahold of Drakon, Mk chucks the gobbo over the ooze, and then cheers if he makes it, and rofls if he doesn't.

Cut off the closest rat's legs! I have use for them.

[Architech]

Turn 7, 42 goblins Remain

Scythes: (Remember class and trait and equipped item listed please). You bring down the suit of armor and scatter it all over the ground. You pick up the pieces and strap is haphazardly to your arm (Gained: Awkward Buckler). You then make your way to the rat. A swift backhand with your new shield removes one of its fangs (Gained: Rat Shank)

Tone: You run to Nal (the only Bully) and tell him to throw you. The Bully furrows his brow at being ordered around by a scrawny goblin. You receive a blow from the back of his hand

Silas: You throw forth a bolt of energy, but seem to get distracted by something and are off kilter with the shot.

Sneggy: (Teamwork only works when the team plans) You run up to the bully and tug at his arm (1). You wind up on the floor.

Nal: You grab Drakon...and throw him right into the ooze (1). Clearly no goblin was meant to be thrown this turn...that's 3 rolls of a 1 for each. The Ooze grows.

Pyro: This will be tricky since Beeva is the structure of the sling shot...but you manage to snap him enough with the slinger. Beeva yelps and goes through the air to land on the other side of the ooze.

Lexius: You zzap the ooze, reducing it's size a bit.

Beeva: You just end up looking awkward (2)

SGS: It takes a bit of effort with your butter knife, but you manage to gather two rat paws. (Gained: Rat Paws x2)

there continues to be a miscommunication....Beeva is literally attached to the machine...he is carrying it. You have built it upon him...like a heavy weapon team where he is the weapon

[PyroSikTh]

there continues to be a miscommunication....Beeva is literally attached to the machine...he is carrying it. You have built it upon him...like a heavy weapon team where he is the weapon

No miscommunication. I'm just ignoring you. I continue to be confused as to why you did that in the first place as I specifically said I built the contraption first, and then told him to hold the flingy bit. In any case, what's stopping me from building another one for someone else?

[Architech]

...We're friends so please don't take this the wrong way...but if you ignore me...why play? I told you I rolled to see how it was built...AFTER I suggested to you that it seemed a bit far fetched. I allowed it to be built in a particular way on a particular roll and this is what happened. Then I nicely rolled to allow beeva to get thrown over the ooze. I'm not trying to fuck you over, but I'm also not going to allow you do whatever you want just because the character has a wrench and some ability to make things...these aren't warhammer orks/grots

Nothing is stopping you from trying again with the nearly complete armor suit....nothing is stopping you from attempting to make a machine that requires actual power to work and having the shaman power it. There are of course limits to this...and you have very little in terms of materials.

[Lexius87]

Class:Shaman
Trait:Lucky

just zzap that ooze again..using drak as a conduit seems to work so let's keep doing that too

[Silas]

Class: Shaman
Trait: Lucky

Zzap ooze using scythes as a conduit.

[scythes]

Class: Goblin
Trait: Curious
Item: Decorative Shinguard (Breastplate), Awkward Buckler, Rat Shank

All geared up now, but knowing he can't do a whole lot to the current enemies, Scythes II backs up behind Sneggy and lets the shamans and Beeva do all the work. At least until he feels something funny channeling through his little body. Seeing it happened a few times before he balls up the channeled energy behind himself then turns and shows the ooze both hands with his wrists together and yells: "Ka-may-ha-may-HA!!!!!"

[DrakonTheNightLord]

Goblin
Evasive

Drakon III will only charge or be thrown at a blob if he is magically charged as a conduit.

If he isn't, he wants to be thrown over the blob so he can tip the fire bracket on to the blob.

*GENERAL STRATEGY WHICH I THINK WE SHOULD CARRY OUT CAUSE TBH WE'RE TAKING TOO LONG*

Shamans to zzap and use conduit on ooze and goblins respectively.
Goblins, whenever used as a conduit, should charge into an ooze.
Bully must help in this by throwing conduit-goblins into the fray.
Tinkerers... I dunno, build a vacuum or something. A hair-dryer maybe.

[PyroSikTh]

...We're friends so please don't take this the wrong way...but if you ignore me...why play? I told you I rolled to see how it was built...AFTER I suggested to you that it seemed a bit far fetched. I allowed it to be built in a particular way on a particular roll and this is what happened. Then I nicely rolled to allow beeva to get thrown over the ooze.

Nothing is stopping you from trying again with the nearly complete armor suit....nothing is stopping you from attempting to make a machine that requires actual power to work and having the shaman power it. There are of course limits to this...and you have very little in terms of materials.

Well then, I guess I should stop playing. I'm not being funny or anything, but no matter how far-fetched, I specifically stated that I built it first and then told him to hold the flingy bit. Rolls shouldn't determine whether the player does what he wants or something else, just if what the player wants even works. If you had said it just didn't work, that would've been much better than completely changing what I wanted.

[Architech]

I don't see it that black and white, sorry, man. You guys could have easily still use the device for things. But you rolled "get caught up in it" and this is what I determined happened. Goblins get distracted...they are not as simple as how we think, hence the rolls to see if it works...fails...or changes

[Beeva]

So how well am I strapped in this thing and can I move?

[Architech]

you can take it off, or move freely with it on....at most it is like having a weapon built on you that can launch things

[SGS]

Class: Trickster
Trait: Ranger
Weapon: Butter Knife

Cut that rat open, remove it's heart, and eat it! I shall gain it's strength!

Oh, then take the rest of the organs and throw them at the slime monster.

I'm gonna let the other guys deal with the little blob, I'm gonna try and use me lobby fing to fire something, anything (rock, stone, piece of armour) at that burnin' fing to knock it over into that big blob o' nasty.

Got to be a million to one shot...

[Architech]

you cannot use the device by yourself...but you can certainly simply knock over the torch :D

[Beeva]

I'll do just that then ;)

[Architech]

which way?

[Beeva]

Towards the bigger blob.

[sneggy]

Class Goblin
Trait troll herder

Using his skill at making creatures bigger than him do things he wants them to he headbutts MK's bully in the crotch. then demands he throw him over the blob.

[Architech]

Turn 8, 41 goblins remain

Lexius: Your spell backfires and throws you to the ground

Silas: You zap the ooze through Scythes and the power of the conduit shrinks it greatly (6,6). Too bad no one has a jar.

Drakon: You reappear!

SGS: You remove some gibbly bits and run towards the ooze to throw the innards. It smells the organs and ooze towards you cooing.

Beeva: You knock over the torch, using the contraption on your back to generate enough force to reach the other ooze. The thing screeches as it burns

Sneggy: You Ram your head into the bully. He is not pleased. He reaches out for you and you for some reason allow yourself to be caught. The Bully slams your head into the wall (-1 goblin)

Bit ridiculous frankly......

Class:Goblin
Trait:Lucky

Using a bit of a scrap of armour I scrape up the remaining little blob onto the armour and throw it at the wall. While giggling.

[Architech]

You attacked the bully...he reacted. I've rolled for every goblin that climbed the bully to see if he killed them or threw them or let the be.

I also roll every time the Bully grabs someone without their volition to see if they evade, attack back or get grabbed.

[DrakonTheNightLord]

Goblin

Drakon III will want to be thrown over the ooze (failing that, he'll take a running jump over the ooze) when successful, Drakon III will continue running and ram the armor, tipping it over and on the ooze. Just for the heck of it.

Pyro takes the bits and pieces of armour brought to him by Scythes II and fashions a jar in which to hold the little ooze. He hands it back to Scythes II. He then moves back a bit to keep out of arms reach from the bigger gobbos. "Here ya's go."

[Architech]

Turn 9, 40 goblins remain

Silas: You cast a dark cloud around the general area of SGS. He is now invisible for all intents and purposes.

Tone: You hop over the tiny ooze.

Scythes and Pyro: Using the discarded helmet, you seal up the holes and catch the ooze. (Gained: Mini Ooze)

Sneggy: Your smacking the ooze seems to have stunned it enough to have it captured.

Drakon: You tip the armor and it crashes down on the burning ooze. It explodes under the force. Flaming ooze flies everywhere...but everyone manages to evade.

It looks as though the way is clear! The second floor of the tower will remain shrouded in fog until you explore!

Before heading up though he turns to his companions, "I's thinkin you's all might wanna gear up like me's.

Trait: Lucky

Sneggy runs up and helps scythes knock over the first table (after drakon has crawled underneath it and is out the other side) before crouching behind it and taking a look around.

(are those chandeliers up there?)

[Architech]

yes they are, pretty right? Those guards are also actual Swiss Guards from the vatican adjusted for color and facially replaced :D

[MkNalsheen]

Class:Bully
Trait:Weaponized
Item:Decorative sword

Rushing forward, the Bully gets under the table, and attempts to push it onto it's side to create some form of cover from the arrows (surely it's easier from beneath it?)

[DrakonTheNightLord]

Guys come on, I'm crawling under the table to sneak up on the guard and zap him to pieces because I've been conduit'd. What you guys can do is charge at the guard to keep him distracted, and MK can throw the table at the guards taking cover.

[Architech]

Turn 11, 38 Goblins remain

Silas: You zap Scythes, and the bolt flies from him to the first guard, luckily avoiding the extreme risk of blowing up the entire team with a back fire. The man spasms slightly as he his hit from the dark cloud (which without your attention begins to fade).

Drakon: You scuttle under the table and tackle the man's ankles. You then uppercut him in the crotch (pictured above). He seems quite phased, but his codpiece nearly shatters your hand (-1 goblin)

Lexius: You conduit through Drakon...well not through him. Into him. He glows brightly as he rockets upwards into the guard's crotch. As soon as he contacts there is a vicious explosion of energy and fire.

Beeva: Yeah...we're not playing this game...someone else must fire it

Scythes and Sneggy: You manage to knock the table on its side...but probably not as planned as the thing falls against the wall.

Tone: You break off one of the table legs and begin gnawing on it...getting nowhere really.

Nal: Having helped the others flip the table...sideways...you scratch your head.

The guards fire another round of arrows. The first two arrows miraculously miss, but the third find Scythes and kills him.

(for the record you guys are not physically strong enough to flip the table over it's end long ways...or throw it for that matter. And as seen, spells must be maintained to last forever. also please remember that conduit is not a spell...but rather a way of casting to increase range or reach odd places).

[sneggy]

so is that guard dead?
Also since the table is on its side now but facing the wrong way could we spin it round? to face the way we wanted it to.

[Silas]

The guard that is a smoking boot? I'd think so snegz....

[Architech]

remember if it disappears, it's gone...save the leg Tone has. Keep in mind that this is based on the feel of early 90s side scroll games where you guys flipped it and it shattered. Sadly I cannot give graphics...or you would have seen Drak do the uppercut.

and yes...those are smoking boots...for flavor

[sneggy]

Class: Bully
Trait: Lucky

Pick up Tone, use him as a human shield while advancing.
If I have a spare hand grab the guards smoking boot and throw it at the other guards to distract them while we advance.

Item: Decorative sword

Charge in behind the others, and while they get slaughtered, use my sword to whack that guard's kneecaps off, before finishing him.

[Beeva]

Beeva: Yeah...we're not playing this game...someone else must fire it

Okies, Sorry. Forgot the mechanisms of how this thing worked. Will stick to using it to launch small objects.

Class: Gobbo
Trait: Lucky
Equipment: Betsy

I think that other shoe is still lying around, I'm going to attempt to launch it at that chandelier in the hope that it will knock it down onto the guards.

[SGS]

Class: Trickster

Hide, hide well. Sneak to peoples then stab them in soft spots with knife!

[Architech]

will update tomorrow guys. I'm trying to keep it to updating every other day, but today my students had their final presentation so I needed some rest. Oh and you know...thundercats premiered...so that was my day >.>

[Architech]

Turn 12. 36 Goblins remain

Sneggy: You grab Tone and begin moving forward, when suddenly you feel something and the goblin in your arms begins to shrink...along with everything else around you. You grab the boot and toss it...it hits the barricade and falls uselessly.

Silas: You watch as your chosen Bully doubles in size...you continue to pump energy into him to keep him at size.

Scythes: You throw the heavy stick at the barricade...and it clatters uselessly to the ground after hitting the table.

Tone: You go along for the ride, with your piece of wood.

Drakon: You jump up and wave the banner. Derek lets out a muffled scream as you rush forward...to be cut down as soon as you get close (-1 goblin)

Lexius you conduit a zap through Drakon, but it ends as he is killed and you are tossed back by the recoil (2).

Nal: You rush forward, but a hail of arrows stops you in your tracks. All the arrows have missed you, however.

Beeva: (2 man job to launch, but you have gotten SGS to help) You launch the light boot up and score a perfect hit (6) non the chandelier...but the boott only causes it to sway and groan against the chain and hold. It creaks and seems to be looser.

SGS: After being convinced to help Beeva, you jump back under the table as the arrows start flying.

[DrakonTheNightLord]

Goblin
Liar

Drakon V sidles up to Sneggy, pointing at the chandeliers right above the barricades, hoping he'd throw him there. Drakon will grab the chandelier and drop down to create great chaos.

[Lexius87]

Class:Shaman
Trait:Lucky

i'll zzap the closest guard directly this time

[sneggy]

Bully
Lucky

Seeing the pint sized Drakon next to him Sneggy picks him up and tosses him at the chandelier he is pointing at.
Afterwards Sneggy walks around the table towards the humans. Tossing any other goblins nearby at the humans to distract them. If he reaches the barricade he will move the table out of the way and try and bite the humans in a wonderful scuffle.

[tone.tran]

Class Tinkerer
trait Lucky

Using his wooden leg, the goblin tries to make a pointy end which he can stab with.

[MkNalsheen]

Class:Bully
Trait:Weaponized
Item: Decorative sword

Moving up behind sneggy in a very un-bully like fashion, Nal will attempt to get passed the barricades at the last moment, swinging his sword at the guard's legs.

[scythes]

Class: Trickster
Trait: Ranger

Scythes III runs forward as fast as his little legs will carry him and runs up one side of the table, then once at the top he jumps off the other side and into the last guards face, clawing and biting him for all he's worth.

[Beeva]

Class: Gobbo
Trait: Lucky
Equipment: Betsy.

I can't do much else from here, so Beeva II will attempt to find ammo for Betsy, bits of broken table/ chandelier if that comes crashing down/ rocks etc to use in future.

Continue waggling the fingers at the big bully. *Ollie bon figga, keep makin 'im bigga!"

Wait for them to run out of arrows behind this nice arrow proof cover.

[Architech]

Turn 13, 35 Goblins Remain

Drakon: In perfect fashion to be thrown...you whip out a pair of goggles from nowhere...

Lexius: You zzap the guard and he yelps (6)

Sneggy: You become a crazy goblin throwing machine. Drakon soars with a scream and hits the chandelier. There is a heavy shattering of glass and a hefty creak...then it crashes to the ground. Tables, guards and Drakon are crushed or greatly injured by glass.

Sadly...You also throw some others...let's see how it goes.

-Tone: Flies threw the air and hits the guard, knocking him down. You lose the table leg after hitting the guard
-Scythes: You fly only far enough to crash into the chandelier...it is unpleasant...(-1 goblin)
-Lexius: You shock the Bully and he drops you.

Nal: You charge forward and kill the guard...but the sword breaks...and you discard it (1)

Beeva: You have one shot with it now that is old armor...and you find two more things to fire. Available ammo: Helmet, Giant Splinter, Sword Hilt

You guys have completed this level

Wait for 4 goblins to pass through the door and walk through afterwards.

[Architech]

[sneggy]

I will attempt to snap a bit of the remaining table off to make myself a shield of some form. I will then venture upstairs holding my shield high and picking up the goblin led on the floor in front of me to try and make me a second shield. Will advance up the stairs after some other goblins. though i will allow the shaman who is making me big to stay hidden behind me.

Looking around for anything he can use as a weapon, be it a large stick, or a spear, or something sharp and pokey, he'll follow through, after making sure some of those lil'uns and the big'un go first(wait for big'un to go through). If he can't find any weapon, he'll grab a dead gobbo, and drag it with him, to use as a body shield until he finds something to get killin with. =D

[DrakonTheNightLord]

Then gets shot by guards.

[Architech]

Turn 15, 34 goblins remain


Sneggy: You pick up Drakon, who of course is more than willing to be thrown down the hall. The excited goblin disappears through the floor and is replaced with a hole. The squelching sound on from the abyss informs you that there will not be another round for the little fellow (-1 Goblin)

Tone: You run forward and grab a bunch of books, you apparently pull the right ones, because as soon as you get back down...some of the books continue to fall of, and suddenly a viscous blade trap is triggered (Lucky).

Nal: You grab the sword and pull to get it down...it simply swivels out and there is a deep creaking. Suddenly there is a *schwing! and a massive pendulum blade plows through you and the wall (-1 Goblin)

Beeva: Nobody helps you...how sad.

Pyro

Trapmaster

Pyro instructs all the Goblins to knock down the bookshelf and break it into pieces. Using the bookshelf and the books, Pyro will build an even bigger catapult on Beeva, the bigger frame also coming with support crutches and wheel so that Beeva doesn't get squashed, and also if he does we'd be able to push it along.

With MechaBeeva built, the party can now simply be expelled out of the level by a great big catapult!
