The Gamers (A Videogame Themed RP) (Reboot)

When Erica saw Lucian the following window appeared before her, matching the quest she would have received two days ago and three days after Erica got her Gamer power, the Others Like Me Quest that mentioned that there could be other Gamers out there.

Window

The Quest 'Others Like Me' has been completed.

Reward: 4 EXP, Possible information on The Gamer power.

It was a bit of experience, a small nice chunk, but compared to the amount gained from fighting monsters it wasn't really a whole lot. When Lucian knocked on the door in the tune of the mario theme song Ren stood up, looking at his minimap. Apparently the minimap displayed the inside of the house now in a minimap's fashion, not the outside. Still, Ren guessed that it was Lucian. He walked towards the door and looked through the small peep hole in the door, seeing Lucian and... someone else. Ren sighed heavily. Five people have this power now? That was no coincidence. Ren got his a month ago, but judging from this person's level she probably got it the same time as Lucian and the others did, or so was a reasonable assumption anyway.

Ren opened the door, looking at Lucian and now this new other gamer. "So... this is the interesting thing you found..." Ren's tone was quiet, cold, and bored sounding as it always was, but that was mainly cause more gamers was an annoying thing. A good thing, but also irksome. "Come in and take off your shoes." Ren closed the door behind them after the two of them entered, moving back to the living room where Sasha and Silas were. "Lucian's here and so is... Erica... a new Gamer apparently." Ren motioned for the two of them to sit before fetching some tea for her and Lucian, setting it down on the small table near the couches so that Erica and Lucian could take it when they sat down.

After that Ren sat down in the other available seat, which was next to Lucian. "So... we were discussing what we were going to do from here on out about these Hunters that are coming after us. Any ideas?"

The monsters were indeed giving chase, but they were not as fast as any of the horses, so naturally the party would be able to easily go ahead of them. Riding onward still, another twenty five yards or so and the party made it to the inside of the bandit camp, the monsters probably not all that far behind as they were most likely chasing the group, or so it would be safe to assume so to keep everyone on guard. Still, they were in the bandit camp, which was a nice, one hundred yard enclosure with three huts, as they had seen before, although the fourth, that had a door, was most likely the most defensible.

In the meantime Vialesa got closer to the fire and she could see some blurry figures now and a somewhat brighter flame. There was only one blurry figure there that seemed to somewhat back from the fire and be hunched over a bit, but that was all that was visible from this distance to Vialesa. While sight wise it was hard to see who was there, in the air there was a very... powerful smell. Rot, decay, and death. Smells that struck the senses that were coming from the direction of that fire. At around twenty or so yards away from the small campsite she could choose to get closer to see just who were there at the fire, or with whatever that smell was that was around there choose to stay away.

I'm fine with either.

Vialesa is still at the top of my mind, so I'm trying quite hard to find / plan for a way for Leifr to rescue her.

Your character does not know about her though, so currently there is nothing you can do at the moment. Still, the monsters would have chased after you all (except one of them that is stunned by the fire)

You guys, thanks to Allereun's good survival roll, found a place about fifty or so yards away that was somewhat easily defensible, but the bandit camp is more easily defended

Tales of Adventure and Discovery RPG, an Epic Adventure RP

Back.

So i take it everyone is going to move towards the bandit camp, that is easier to defend?

But Vialesa is still thirty yards away, so she can't really see what is going on and she is still a good bit away from the campfire (rolled Observation for her, she still can't see what is going on over there since its dark)

Well actually, now its everyone else's turn, including Vialesa

Leifr and Vialesa need a purely platonic relationship like that of Mario and Peach.

It isn't plutonic, they do have a relationship, its canon.

Odysseus would have kept going and going in the direction of the bandit camp, moving as fast as it could go until it was about a good around twenty five to thirty or so yards away from the campsite, or at least at a point where it and the ghouls couldn't be seen anymore, which in the dark was about a good thirty yards away, the smell not being here either, and boy did those things smell foul. Even now Odysseus would still be on edge a bit. Not utterly terrified like before, but still on edge. Lyrisa would soon ride up as well, having been a bit swifter than the others in her mount up so she was able to get there sooner.

Leifr and Allereun, unfortunately, were not so lucky since it took them a bit longer to mount up, even though Allereun noticed the powerful stench and blurry figures of the monsters ahead of time. The monsters began their charge, guttural growls and hisses escaping them as one of them, the closest one, moved towards Allereun and his horse, his and Leifr's horses both being a little freaked out by the fires. Before the beast could attack though it suddenly hissed loudly, the fire nearest to Allereun's somewhat freaking out horse and the beasts seeming to flare up for a single instant by just a tiny bit as it grew lighter, catching more of the leaves, grass, and kindling within the bedroll now.

The fires seemed a bit brighter now though, burning a bit brighter than before as the leaves and grass around it added to a bit of its flame. Four of monsters were held back by this, one of them even seeming to hiss very loudly and retreat back, covering its eyes, looking almost stunned by the brighter fire. One of them though seemed a bit hesitant to approach as it was shielding its eyes a bit, but it still managed a guttural hiss and groan as it lurched forward and slashed up at Allereun's horse with the claws on one of its deformed looking hands. It might have been the brighter fire as the beast missed.

With the other four temporarily held back, Allereun and Leifr could escape with the others towards the camp down the hills from here in hopes to get to a position that would be more easily defended rather than trying to fight or run away from these beasts while in this more hilly terrain. Besides, whatever else was out there may also attack the group if they run, if there is anything else out there of course.

I think Leifr should be chivalrous gentleman who saves the maiden in distress by pulling her aboard his warhorse, letting him ride side saddle like a true princess.

Not gonna happen cause the DM is blind apparently and missed some shit XD
