Heroes of Conquest (RPG)

"MOO!" The horse Morgoth boarded mooed.

"Moo? What the heck?" Morgoth laughed and looked at Serrin, rolling his eyes.

Turning back to the horse, Morgoth said, "I'mma gonna name you Lawbiter. Like that?"

The horse MOO'd again, as if in agreement.

Serrin looked sheepish. "Whoops, still getting the hang of this." The horse emitted a horrible screeching noise as its vocal cords melted, then a relieved whinny at not sounding like a cow anymore.

"Serrin, it appears the more summons you do in a row, the more off your creatures become," Bakker said hinting at his surprise. "QUACK!" "see what I mean, Morgoth's horse moo's, mine Quacks, I think you need to use summoning sparingly for now, at least till you get the hang of it a bit more. Well since we are on the topic of naming our horses, guess you can be Daleed my trusty steed." "QUACK" Bakker nods in assumption of yes.

Serrin sighed. "I suppose you're right. I wanted to summon an army of scorpions, but it probably wouldn't work well if 2/3 of them ended up as frogs and trees. Since it seems everyone is naming their horses, I dub mine Night Rider."

"SERRIN!" Morgoth screams, cuddling Lawbiter. "You hurt Lawwy's feelings!"

"He has no feelings!" shouted Serrin. "He's an illusion!"

"Goes to show you what thiefs and assassins know about magic," Bakker said jokingly while elbowing Serrin in the arm (softly in a joking manner, not in a way that would hurt)

"ENOUGH. God im the most immature one here and i have to take the mature role." Cale said. "Lets Ride." He added spurring Liberty into gallop

"agreed" Bakker added

Serrin spurred Night Rider into a gallop, as the horse turned jet black and its eyes began to glow red. Noticing the others' glances, he shrugged self-consciously and said "Hey, we may all get horses, but mine is the coolest."

"Lawbiter isn't a islusion; how else could he ride?" Morgoth nagged as they rode. "My beautiful black horse can gallop through the fields!"

Serrin snapped his fingers. Immediately, the horse disappeared, then reappeared next to Morgoth lying prone on the ground. "He's an illusion. Got it?"

Morgoth looked at his horse with sorrow. Then, he forgot the horse, grabbed his two shortswords and charged at Serrin. "MURDERER!"

"These horses are made from the dust that exist around us. They are real matter, yet in all extensive purposes they are not truely horses, and therefore are called illusions by mages." Bakker explains to Morgoth as he sits waiting for this argument to cease. "All these summoning spells work on that principle."

((reappeared.))

Morgoth stopped short. "You do realize I'm about to hit Serrin, right?"

((Lying prone - dead.))

Cale stopped his horse. "Stop arguing lets go."

"Yeah, I noticed that, but something tells me you won't manage to kill him in one strike, so I'd just heal him up if you hit him. Just more training for me. :)"
((And by the way, you were the one lying prone, the horse is standing next to you.))

"Or, I could kill you first, then pulverise him," Morgoth snickered.

"If you even tried that, there would be a couple zombies eating your brains in a split second. Let's just go." He turned around and began trotting Night Rider along the path covered in goblin footprints.

Morgoth stood there. "I feel like Sam in the Lord of the Rings series. Frodo! Frodo!" He jumped up and up, reaching his arms out.

Cale heard voices in the near distance. "we're catching up, i think they're about 200 feet off, talking really loudly. Maybe arguing?"

"Let's ride 'em down! Come on!" Serrin's horse broke into a gallop as they raced towards the source of the voices.

((We should probably stop around here, we need the GM to do the battle, and it's almost 1 am where I live >.<))

Morgoth ran after them, putting on his speed factor, catching up easily. He raised his short swords and charged.

((Yup and here3 is where we finish G'Night All. Try and delete any irrelevant posts before leaving))

((agreed, mine are gone, might not hear from me for a day or two too))

((Im back))

((you guys had waaaay to much fun with out me here...))
((Let me clarify a few things: The summonmounts are not visible, but spectral mounts. They are not reactive to your actions, they just give a speed bonus.))

The four adventurers ran towards the sounds of goblins. Bakker turned to Grahmn "You know, they really are mostly kids."

Grahmn ((apparently)) the strong and silent type, just nodded and trotted down the hill after the others.

Seririn arrived first. He gains first attack

Attack order:
Serrin
Morgoth
Cale
Goblins (3)
Drayz
Bakker and Grahmn are a round behind

The goblins are short greenskinned men wielding spears. With wicked looking shortswords at there sides, they turn to see the party running towards them.

((very sorry, im in UK and so i was asleep as most of that was happening.))
"Sorry lads i was off in an other world! But i smell goblin scum!!" Shifts axe into a battle stance.
((When my turn comes about ill jsut hit with my axe. Im out until sunday lol great time to take up an RPG eh? :P))

((lol, its all ok))

Serrin casted wizard's armor, then charged in, waving his mace.

Cale threw some knives then charged axe in hand.

Serrin: 13+0 = 13/ no hit
Morgoth: 19+3 = 22 = hit!
As the blade swings through the air, a vibrant glow follows it
4 damage! (Goblin constitution roll = 6, goblin stunned)

Cale throws knife: 9+3 = 12 no hit

Goblins: 1/2/3
1: Spear: Serrin 7+3 = 10
2: Spear: Morogoth 16+3 = 19 hit, 2 damage
3: Stunned

Drayz Longbow 19+4 = hit 6 damage

10/6(s)/4

Serrin backed his horse up and summoned a skeleton to attack the goblins. He called over his shoulder "Morgoth needs healing!"

((Fixed it.))

Cale ran at a goblin swinging at him with his axe

"No!" Morgoth shouted, clutching his wound tightly with his free hand. "I'm fine! Get the goblins!"

Serrins Skeleton attacks first:
Slam: 7+3 = no hit

Cale swings his handaxe:
14+2 = 16/ hit on the ((formerly)) unwounded goblin
2 damage

Grahamn attacks:
9+5 = 14/ hit! 8 damage to number 2 (dead)

Goblins attack: 1/3
Attack Cale 13+3 = 16 hit, 2 damage
Attacks Skeleton 5+3 = no hit

Drayz shoots:
2+4 = no hit

8/0/6

((I didn't attack....)) Morgoth fell to the ground, clutching his wound. "Get the goblins!"

((fixed it for you then))

The healthier gobin breaks past Cale and goes for the wounded Morgoth

Morgoth cried, but grabbed his shortsword, and as the goblin approached, he thrust it into the goblin's chest. "Eat sword, maggot...."
