Dice Trial By Fire - OOC

[D. Rex]

I can even ramp up the distraction to make it unmistakable that Bard is an exalt. Will definitely get their attention.

 

[Random Word]

Right, sorry. A Full Moon, a Dawn, a Chosen of Secrets, and a Bard.

I don't want to leave Bard behind as a distraction. Shikari are just going to spend the willpower surcharge and jump you if you're alone, though it's entirely possible you could solo that guy. It's still Fight Vs Boat Vs Land as I see it, and if Boat then Respect Commanding Attitude certainly makes it that much harder for them to attack us in a crowd if we just go for it. If any of us should be staying behind as distractions it's the ones who can turn into birds, become untraceable, etc.

Maja votes flee by Land because everything else sounds scary, but I do like that Boat gives Thallus and Rivers a chance to do cool stuff and break the Dynasts' toys.

Well they have to pay 1 wp to leave. 2 wp to interrupt. But even if they choose to interupt, they have to look like part of the act until they actually stop it. Making it all the more difficult.

And Bard has some fair dodging abilities, so long as he weaves through the crowd and keep singing. He should be just fine.

They can follow us on land. But if I can keep their attention, and we hop on the boat... they will have to take time to get ready to give chase....


Also yall can sabotage their boat to prevent them following

 

[Syvvaris]

We should be coming up with a plan IC.

What I really mean, is we have a short window to make a decision before a decision is made for us and I want to keep what your characters would do genuine.
If your character is choosing to fight instead of flight then by all means. Fight.

 

[D. Rex]

Lol no worries there. Simple speculation on my part.

Bard is gonna do what bards do. Make a scene and try to turn things into a musical.

Yall are going to have to drag Bard out by force or wait till his song is done. Of which he would keep singing even if he got attacked

 

[D. Rex]

That's better. A whopping 14 successes.

 

[Random Word]

Maja is going to make a killing selling memory stone recordings of Bard's greatest hits, live in concert.

 

[jaydude]

Can someone remind me what the escape plan is? Are we going to escape overland, or on the Seagull?

 

[Psychie]

It sounds like we are heading for the ship.

 

[jaydude]

It sounds like we are heading for the ship.

Just asking because I think some of us wanted to flee overland to escape the Wyld Hunt's warship, and I don't remember if the issue was resolved.

 

[Random Word]

I was worried about fleeing by ship, but Rivers suggested turning into a seadragon to cripple the warship (take out its rudder, etc). That would slow them down considerably if they wanted to follow us. It sounds like a neat idea to me.

 

[jaydude]

Yeah. Though one worry I have with using the ship is that we'd have to find Dromond first, seeing as he's the captain. Can we assume he's still at the ship, supervising the loading and unloading of his cargo?

 

[Random Word]

Ummm... Sidereals!

 

[D. Rex]

I wonder if I can use SVNG style to Fus Ro Dah someone off a cliff.

 

[Sherwood]

lol I'll make sure to give you that chance.

 

[jaydude]

Quite by coincidence, I'm currently playing Skyrim.

 

[D. Rex]

Quite by coincidence, I'm currently playing Skyrim.

It's not coincidence. Its a sign.

 

[HumanPlus]

So, how are we actually splitting the group? We can count on more than this one coming here, but the mission by the river won't be quiet either. If Thallus will be casting, probably one to defend him could be enough. Guess it'll be up to Maja and Kuaidao.

 

[D. Rex]

To be honest, I am lost as to the specifics what is going on. All I really know is that the crowd needs me.

 

[HumanPlus]

I do believe that a short summation of the situation would be that we are splitting into two groups. Spider and Bard are gonna fight the hound-rider and whatever pals he's got nearby, and Rivers and Thallus are planning to go to the docks to sabotage the enemy ship. Melinda has proposed to teleport a group of max 5 people. We could use that either help the saboteurs to get there faster or get the battlers out into safety once their fight is over.

 

[Sherwood]

Ok. I can work with this. I just needed to make sure that I had it straight in my head before making any mistakes.

Is everyone good with that plan?

 

[D. Rex]

I'm good with the plan! Though Bard will try to get out of the situation without a fight.

 

[Psychie]

I am down with this.

 

[HumanPlus]

Alrightey

 

[D. Rex]

jaydude as for teleportation being obvious. Take advantage of the distraction and eyes on Bard. Could probably try to stunt a more subtle exit.
