[15:58] <griffinguy24> We'll start on Thursday afternoon, you're milling about in the lab waiting for Dr. Lord to arrive. Alex, you're a tad sore from the workout he gave you (Where he got a 1,000 lb steel weight for you to bench-press is a mystery) but otherwise fine.
[16:00] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera's busy writing unintelligible symbols as she mumbles equally strange words...
[16:00] <Gabriella> "Guys! I have word from Tepini."
[16:01] * Liam raises a curious eyebrow
[16:01] <Alexander_Efasteyo> [[no, just Alex is sore from training and we're waiting for Dr Lord to arrive at Th Bio lab]]
[16:01] <Jahiera_Saladin> She looks up at Gabz, interested.
[16:01] * Gabriella heads away from the mortals indicating you all should follow
[16:01] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "What is it, Gabby?"
[16:01] <Dave-jones_Dan> "so what tep know?" Dave asks
[16:02] <@sean> [[There are mortals in this bio class?]]
[16:02] <griffinguy24> The entire group is here ((Ren's gonna be very quiet)) and that includes all the roomates! However, the lab classroom is secluded, and no mortals are in the section
[16:02] <Alexander_Efasteyo> [[I didn't think so, Sean. Class yes, lab no\\
[16:02] <@sean> "What's up, Gabby?"
[16:02] <Gabriella> "he says they found the lair but there doesn't appear to be a master there. the coyote and bird are staying, he is on his way back to lead us there."
[16:02] <Gabriella> (ah ok thanks griff)
[16:03] <Liam> "curiouser and curiouser"
[16:03] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Don't bother, I can summon Miyet to guide us there," Jahi grinned at Gabz.
[16:03] <Dave-jones_Dan> "well don't we have a lab?" dave asks "and we could do with some back up, we struggled with one bear"
[16:03] <griffinguy24> Cory grins, "Knew they'd come through!" Lionel looks on with some curiosity, but ultimately says nothing
[16:03] <Gabriella> ((I think Griff forgot about Miyet hehe))
[16:03] <@sean> "wait....this is the lair of that bear thing you guys dealt with the other day, right?"
[16:03] <Gabriella> "Yes."
[16:03] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Yeah Sean
[16:04] <Liam> " the nemean thingy?"
[16:04] <griffinguy24> ((Miyet's out there, too? I thought she was staying w/ Jahi?))
[16:04] <Dave-jones_Dan> "could we not just blow it up or something, there must be some dynamite or something, any that survive the blast will starve or have to find a new way out?"
[16:04] <Jahiera_Saladin> ((Lots of coaxing went into sending out Miyet with Tepi))
[16:05] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Dave, fire would be better. The smoke inhalation should at least hurt them
[16:05] <Liam> "so you got dynamite?...and know how to set it up without losing some precious fingers?"
[16:05] <Gabriella> ((Tepini showed off his fine butt and Miyet finally went lol))
[16:05] <Dave-jones_Dan> "yep but they they might come towards us and then we have a load of bears heading towards us
[16:05] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Good idea, but I think both methods would attract a lot of attention either ways..."
[16:05] <griffinguy24> ((Heh. OK, well, the two kitties are coming then, the coyote and bird are staying
[16:05] <Gabriella> "There are 5 so far...and something else they can't identify."
[16:06] <Liam> "attention aint a problem...mortals getting in danger is"
[16:06] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Five?!?"
[16:06] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi sighs, "I hate unknowns..."
[16:06] <Liam> "ummmm thats a lot right?"
[16:06] <Dave-jones_Dan> "great, do you think we could possibly get Dr.lord to help? or the dwarfs?"
[16:06] <@sean> "I really don't think we should go blowing shit up. At least without knowing exactly what's in there."
[16:06] <Gabriella> "None of them know the scent."
[16:06] <Liam> "whats it look like?"
[16:07] <Gabriella> Dan Dr. Lord would not help! He would make it much worse."
[16:07] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Well, I've been preparing to take on a group, but if my Compelling Presence can't hold them..."
[16:07] <Dave-jones_Dan> [[Dan is just the player name, the characters name is Dave jones]]
[16:07] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Wait, does anyone here know how to communicate with cats in the first place?"
[16:07] <Gabriella> "3 adults, 2 like before. All they have is the scent of the unknown...no visual."
[16:07] <Gabriella> ((doh lol))
[16:08] <Gabriella> "Not yet."
[16:08] <@sean> "Um...nope."
[16:08] * Liam begins to toss his knife up in the air with a thoughtful look
[16:08] <Gabriella> "I can only communicate with Tepini and it is a mind thing."
[16:09] <Dave-jones_Dan> "I've got an idea, how about I send my bikers in and see if we can get them split up, then take them out 1 by 1" Dave asks "they all have their bikes"
[16:09] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "One at a time would be a lot easier if it worked"
[16:09] <Liam> "wait....bait...heh heh...I can do that.."
[16:10] <Liam> "whats the terrain like? is biking gonna be easy for 'em?"
[16:10] * Gabriella stiffens as her eyes go white
[16:10] * Liam blinks and watches
[16:10] <Jahiera_Saladin> She frowns thoughtfully, "I have those arrows, so I guess I can help take out the adults?"
[16:10] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Yeah, wondering if the bears might have a maneuvering advantage in the forest"
[16:11] <Dave-jones_Dan> "yer possibly, the animals might be better"
[16:11] * Gabriella recovers a few seconds later looking less worn out than the last few times.
[16:11] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Well Gabz?"
[16:11] <Liam> "I'm pretty light on my feet"
[16:11] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Jahiera, do like Boo, go for the eyes. Even without its Nemeaness a bear's hide is thick"
[16:11] <Dave-jones_Dan> "so Gabrillella, what do you know, what bad news do the god's have for us"
[16:11] <griffinguy24> Barry's looking like he's itching to say something, but holds back
[16:11] <@sean> "So, does that happen to you often, Gabby? I'd imagine getting sick of it."
[16:11] <Gabriella> "An amethyst is the source of all the misfortune..."
[16:12] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera raises an eyebrow at Barry, "Well?"
[16:12] <Liam> "I stand corrected...NOW....curiouser and curiouser"
[16:12] <Dave-jones_Dan> "amethyst?" says Dave, "I wonder if thats the something the animals couldn't work out what it was, if the amethyst is in there then we might be able to control the bears"
[16:13] <Gabriella> "Tepini says there were no purple stones there"
[16:13] <@sean> "Maybe it's with the unknown scent..."
[16:13] <Liam> "maybe some one around campus has one...."
[16:13] <griffinguy24> Barry: "Listen, I know you guys don't like me, but... well, I know the area... and I've hunted bears before. Not like these, but... well, this is what I'm good at"
[16:13] <Gabriella> "I think we need to find coach. See if he knows anything about that."
[16:14] * Gabriella walks over to Barry and looks him in the eye.
[16:14] <Gabriella> "Do you believe yet. Believe this isn't the work of your god?"
[16:14] <Dave-jones_Dan> "well nice to have another hunter on board barry" Dave says "the main thing is we want to make sure if we do engage them we don't drag them on campus there would be a massicur"
[16:14] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera blinks, "Wait, can we get a roll-call of weaponry here?"
[16:15] * Liam raises his knife,"yes!"
[16:15] * Liam smirk
[16:15] * Alexander_Efasteyo raises his cestus clad fists
[16:16] <griffinguy24> Barry looks at Gabriella and says, "Listen, you believe what you like, and I believe what I will. But these things gave you folk trouble, right? I want to help. I'm a hunter. And I think I'm the only one in this room"
[16:16] <Jahiera_Saladin> "I have a bow and some arrows that can pierce their skin, if anyone else has a bow, I can split it up with you."
[16:17] <Gabriella> "If you can leave your bullshit here then we should be fine."
[16:17] * Gabriella shakes her head "My machete switches to a handgun."
[16:18] <@sean> "I have my sash...and some tricks up my sleeve" [[don't know how to do the colored * text]]
[16:19] <Jahiera_Saladin> ((o.O))
[16:19] <griffinguy24> Cory pulls out a tomahawk. Hank says, "I have a sledgehammer and my gun". Sonia silently takes out a small stick, which expands into a bo staff. Barry takes out his knife, "I've got a shotgun too. And I'll leave our differences here when we get to the woods"
[16:19] <Gabriella> ((/me "whatever you want to say))
[16:19] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Gabby, Barry - forget the other stuff, let's talk about hunting bear"
[16:19] <Gabriella> ((gabby gave them to Dave))
[16:21] <griffinguy24> Suddenly, there's a flash of rainbow light, Dr. Lord appears in the room... but not as you've seen him in the past. He's holding crutches... and his left leg has clearly been cut off above the knee.
[16:21] <Liam> "holy fucking shit!!!"
[16:22] <Gabriella> "OH Shit!"
[16:22] <@sean> "Holy Shit! What happened?"
[16:22] * Alexander_Efasteyo stares in shock for a second
[16:22] * Ren_Panganiban pales when he sees Dr. Lord.
[16:22] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi's eyes widen and she quickly stands up to head to him, "Sir?"
[16:22] <Ren_Panganiban> "What happened!?"
[16:23] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Dr. Lord, can I be of assistance?" []
[16:23] <Liam> ((as do I..)
[16:23] <griffinguy24> Dr. Lord hobbles to a chair and sits down, "There was a battle last night, a bad one. We didn't expect it... They were Aztec, I was captured... my leg became a sacrifice. I'm lucky that was it..."
[16:24] <@sean> [[Can I Assess Health, Dr. Lord?]]
[16:24] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Is there something we can do for you, Dr. Lord?"
[16:25] <Gabriella> "Guys, I'm sure his band set him up. We however have to figure out what to do about the bears."
[16:26] <griffinguy24> He looks to Alex, "Appreciate the help, but I'll live. Frankly, I'm thankful we did. As soon as the Obsidian Butterfly showed up, all hope of winning that battle was lost"
[16:26] <Liam> "huh?"
[16:26] <@sean> "The what?"
[16:26] <griffinguy24> "Itzpapalotl, minor Aztec goddess, totally bonkers
[16:27] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Sounds like an interesting story. But if you don't need us, Dr. Lord, we found the bears and we need to get after them"
[16:27] <Gabriella> "Dr. Lord. Our animals found their lair and also found a scent none of them recognize. Do you have any ideas how we might deal with 3 adult bears and 2 more young ones?"
[16:27] <@sean> "Not to mention any clue as to what the mystery scent could be?"
[16:28] <Gabriella> "And where could we find coach right now."
[16:28] <Liam> "calm down people...give the man a chance"
[16:29] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera returns to her seat, a little shell shocked, and, truth be told, a little scared now, realizing what kind of forces they were going to deal with later on.
[16:30] * Gabriella sits on a desk
[16:30] <Jahiera_Saladin> She sucks it though, and quickly scribbles down a plan to deal with their problem...
[16:31] <Jahiera_Saladin> ...hopefully, no one held back- "Wait, Sadie? You didn't say anything about your weapon..."
[16:31] <Liam> "I still think drawing them away obe by one is a good idea.."
[16:31] <@sean> "So, these animals, how long should it take to get to their place?"
[16:31] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I agree, Liam. I also want to hear what bear-hunting Barry has to say"
[16:31] * @sean agrees
[16:32] <griffinguy24> "Sorry, it's... it's been a while since I've gotten hurt this bad... well, always good to know I can teach you something... Nemean animals are very powerful, twice as strong, fast, and durable as their normal counterparts. The Titanic influence gives them a super-tough skin... attacking the eyes and open mouth is the best means of dealing with them, as is choking them, if you can do that
[16:32] * Alexander_Efasteyo grins at the thought of choking a Nemean Bear
[16:33] <Liam> "you hold'e, I hit'em"
[16:33] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Doctor Lord? Are there any environmental weaknesses we should know about? Or resistances to diseases?"
[16:33] <Gabriella> "Yeah we figured that out with the first one. 45min to get to the lair."
[16:34] <@sean> "We thought maybe fire?"
[16:34] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I thought that, but for the smoke"
[16:34] <griffinguy24> "Also, their own natural weapons are their greatest weakness. Claws, teeth, tusks, horns, whatever it is, it'll rip through a nemean's hide like tissue"
[16:34] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I don't know if a Nemean hide would be immune to fire, but I bet their lungs are not immune to smoke"
[16:35] <Gabriella> For smoke to work we would need to trap them somewhere...it "takes too much time."
[16:36] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Not if their lair is a cave"
[16:36] <@sean> "Not to mention keeping them where they don't want to be while they die from smoke inhalation...doesn't really sound easy."
[16:36] <Jahiera_Saladin> She frowns a little and turns to Barry, "If I may ask, how would you normally deal with a bear?"
[16:36] <griffinguy24> "I personally take issue with starting a forest fire in general," Dr. Lord said, but Barry interrupts, "If bears sense a forest fire, they run away. If we start one, they'll run to the nearest place they can... and probably one of the nearby towns"
[16:36] <Jahiera_Saladin> [[No probs]]
[16:36] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Block the cave entrance, if they're in a cave"
[16:37] <Dave-jones_Dan> "isn't that what I said?" dave asked "just with dynamite"
[16:37] <Liam> "some caves do have more than just the one cliche opening"
[16:37] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Guys, I was only thinking fire if we could get them in a cave or something. I have no desire to start a forest fire on the hopes of getting these things"
[16:38] <Liam> "agree"
[16:38] <Liam> (agreed)
[16:38] <Gabriella> "It sounds like our best option is drawing them out one at a time."
[16:38] <Dave-jones_Dan> "yes we would have tree huggers all over us then, and I hate tree huggers" Dave adds
[16:38] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Most caves turn to be caverns Alex, I'd rather prefer having them outside where I know when they die."
[16:39] <Liam> "good point jahiera"
[16:39] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Hey, your animals scouted the area, I was just trying to think of a way to kill them without must of us dying in the process"
[16:39] <griffinguy24> "The cave systems around here are complex... hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they're coming up FROM one of the caves"
[16:40] <Dave-jones_Dan> "Hand on dwarfs are good with caves right- e.g. can we not contact the dwarfs?"
[16:41] <Jahiera_Saladin> "I don't think that I'd like getting fatebonded to the Dwarves either," Jahi sighed.
[16:41] <Gabriella> "Dr. Lord where do you think I could find Coach right now."
[16:41] <griffinguy24> Dr. Lord says, "Wait a second, have you kids found out the source of the bears yet? Are you sure there's only five?"
[16:41] <Gabriella> "There are 5 for now. And a scent the animals do not recognize."
[16:41] <@sean> "So says Tepini and the other critters."
[16:41] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I'm not sure, but that is our best intel at this time"
[16:41] <Dave-jones_Dan> "so that could be good bad or indifferent" dave says
[16:42] <Gabriella> "And I need to ask Coach if they have seen or found any amethyst."
[16:42] <griffinguy24> "I don't keep in contact with MacLaggin," he says... wait, Gabby, ask him what it smells like...
[16:42] <Jahiera_Saladin> She sighs, "I really, really hate unknowns. Say, is there any moon out?"
[16:42] <griffinguy24> "Just in general"
[16:42] <griffinguy24> ((instead of Gabby, he should've said "miss Velas"
[16:42] <Liam> ((still daytime..?))
[16:42] <Ren_Panganiban> "I think I'm more worried about the unrecognized scent. We're planning on fighting bears - nemean bears, but they're still bears - but what if the unknown element is something we can't handle even if we ganged up on 'im?"
[16:43] <Jahiera_Saladin> ((There time when the moon is out during the day
))
[16:43] <@sean> "Especially if this unknown is controlling them with this Amethyst."
[16:43] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Unknowns with jewels are usually bad news..."
[16:43] <Dave-jones_Dan> "I was going to say other wise we just get them to drink my beer, in fact if we could take one alive- BOYAH"
[16:44] <Gabriella> "He says it smells a bit like Dave, but more antiseptic and flowery."
[16:44] <Jahiera_Saladin> She blinks...
[16:44] <@sean> "Like Dave?"
[16:44] <griffinguy24> "Amethyst... I don't think there's anything... Huh? No, nothing directly related to bears"
[16:44] <Dave-jones_Dan> "FLOWERY" Dave roars "I DON'T SMELL FLOWERY"
[16:45] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "We know"
[16:45] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Hush you," she calms Dave down. "A relic maybe?"
[16:45] * Liam snickers
[16:45] <griffinguy24> "Wait, like an Aesir, but flowery and antiseptic? Ask if there's a smell of roots and dirt!"
[16:45] <Dave-jones_Dan> [[for anyone who doesn't know dave doesn't do flowers"
[16:45] <@sean> "No no. You smell like the height of masculinity."
[16:45] * @sean rolls his eyes.
[16:45] <Gabriella> "he says no."
[16:45] <Dave-jones_Dan> "hang on a second, that sounds like my 'step mum'" Dave adds
[16:46] <Ren_Panganiban> "Step mom?"
[16:46] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi turns to Dave, an eyebrow raised.
[16:46] <@sean> "LIke a Goddess step-mom, or a mortal step-mom?
[16:46] <griffinguy24> "It's an elf!" Dr. Lord says disbelievingly, "Well, an Alfar. They're old Norse nature gods... but that doesn't make sense!"
[16:46] <Liam> "ooooh an elf??"
[16:46] <Alexander_Efasteyo> I mutter "Bob"
[16:47] <Liam> "my uncle?"
[16:47] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Gabby, by chance did you learn anything about Bob yet?"
[16:47] <Jahiera_Saladin> "A swartalfar?"
[16:47] <Dave-jones_Dan> "Goddess step mom- sif, my Dad was talking about her- she is in to her plants and stuff supposedly"
[16:47] <Gabriella> "No I haven't had the chance Alex"
[16:48] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "K, thanks Gabby"
[16:48] <griffinguy24> "No, not a Swartalfar, that'd at least make sense, most Alfar are aligned with the Aesir... and almost none would be aligned with bears"
[16:48] <@sean> "Is it in her nature to create nemean bears and let them rampage about?"
[16:49] <Dave-jones_Dan> "not really, but I don't think she would hide in a cave, and Thor would kind of know if his wife was hiding in a cave, but a daughter of sif might?"
[16:49] <griffinguy24> "My Bandmate is Sif's Scion, and while he has a bear as his Jotunblut creature, I can assure you he's in perfect control of it..."
[16:50] <Dave-jones_Dan> "exactly, if sif's scion is corupetted- bang evil bears"
[16:50] <griffinguy24> Dr. Lord shakes his head, "No, it's not Sif's scent. She smells more like honey"
[16:50] <Ren_Panganiban> "But we're pretty sure it's one of thse 'alfar or a swartalfar - whatever the difference between the two of them?"
[16:50] <Dave-jones_Dan> "well that's me out then, I just know cos my dad was telling me about it when we were talking about girl friends of the past"
[16:51] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi giggled a little, inappropriate, maybe, still funny. "Hey, how about one that deals with health and plants?"
[16:51] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Antiseptic for hospitals, flowers for plants."
[16:53] <Dave-jones_Dan> "don't know" Says dave "I only know my Dad, odin, loki and hemidal, he didn't bother telling me about other stuff"
[16:53] <griffinguy24> "That's an Alfar. Swartalfar, the dark elves, are underground, so they have a powerful scent of roots and dirt... Swartalfar are typically titan-aligned, and they'd be most likely to have a hand in this, but if Tepini can't sense it..."
[16:53] <Ren_Panganiban> "Then it's an Alfar. But you were surprised that they might have a hand in this... Are they normally less titan-aligned?"
[16:54] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Perhaps the scent is magically masked"
[16:54] <Dave-jones_Dan> Dave mumbles something about elves and ponsy magic under his breath
[16:54] <@sean> "How difficult might this "Alfar" be to deal with? Especially what with the whole creating Nemean Bears thing?"
[16:54] <Gabriella> "Our cats are at the treeline"
[16:55] <griffinguy24> "Alfar are lesser immortals, capable of powers much like yours... I would be cautious... especially since this makes absolutely no sense"
[16:55] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Or the Amethyst is behind this," she stated as she finished up her mindmap and idea list. Looking up Gabz, she nodded.
[16:56] <@sean> "Should we meet up with the cats and formulate a basic plan on the way?"
[16:56] <Gabriella> "I still think we should talk to coach. What if the dwarves unknowingly took something made of amethyst or an amethyst and it pissed off this elf."
[16:56] <Gabriella> "the bears are only going after the dwarves not anything else."
[16:56] <Dave-jones_Dan> "agreed, or at this rate we are going to be sitting here while 1000 bears eat the rest of campus"
[16:56] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "One attacked Barry"
[16:57] <Gabriella> "While he was out there yes but they are not coming here, or going into the towns."
[16:57] <Ren_Panganiban> "Who might have gotten into their lair, or to close to it. Getting more information before we get out there is best."
[16:57] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Dave, what say we kill them all and let our divine parents sort it out?" said with a wink
[16:58] <Liam> "agree, all this sitting talking bout why is pointless"
[16:58] <Dave-jones_Dan> "sounds like a plan" Dave repys "as long we we go to the pub afterwords!"
[16:58] <@sean> "You guys really are just all testosterone, aren't you?" Sean chuckles.
[16:58] <Dave-jones_Dan> "defo, testosterone works"
[16:59] * Gabriella rolls her eyes
[16:59] <griffinguy24> Dr. Lord says, "I'm not sure... but they'll probably spread out... I'd say go do some culling right now... This'll be your lab practical... I'll be here if you need me. Don't worry, I know when you kids are in danger, and if so, I will Come Running..."
[16:59] <Dave-jones_Dan> "other wise we are women and that's bad man"
[16:59] * Ren_Panganiban chuckles at Dave's words, even if he doesn't agree with it.
[16:59] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Look, we've been talking about this for an hour already, planning is smart, but we're now spinning our wheels"
[16:59] <Dave-jones_Dan> "excellent, killing stuff and then getting good marks for it!"
[16:59] * Gabriella eyes flare in anger at Dave "Fuck off."
[17:00] * Liam walks out and heads towards the forest, whistling a merry tune
[17:00] <Dave-jones_Dan> "time to gather re-enforcements then" Dave says ignoring gab and ringing round the bikers
[17:00] <Jahiera_Saladin> Again, Jahi sighed as she stood up, and looked at Dr Lord, fixing his in her mind as reminder, even Demi-Gods can lose their limbs. What did they say about Heroes like her massive band?
[17:00] * @sean heads out after the other guys.
[17:00] * Gabriella heads for the door "I'm going to go find Coach first. Alex take them to where we talked, the cats will be there."
[17:01] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I say we swing by the gym now. If MacLaggin is there, we can ask him chat. Otherwise, we're wasting time
[17:01] <Dave-jones_Dan> "right behind out alex" dave says
[17:01] <griffinguy24> Lionel and Sadie were reluctant to go with the Band, but a stern look from Dr. Lord told them otherwise. The roommates head to their rooms to collect their gear
[17:01] <Jahiera_Saladin> She walks to Barry and smiles at him, "Come on bear hunter, you have a job to do."
[17:02] <griffinguy24> "You get the coach, I'll get my gun and my dog."
[17:02] * Liam does a quick stretch and starts off at a jog
[17:02] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Well, let's all meet at the gym. Gabby and I can look for MacLaggin"
[17:02] <Ren_Panganiban> "Sounds like a plan, see you in a few."
[17:02] <@sean> "Sounds good."
[17:03] <Dave-jones_Dan> [[note I've got all my relics on me, just need my new cloak which will be on my bike specking of which]]
[17:03] * Alexander_Efasteyo heads out at a jog to the gym to search for MacLaggin
[17:03] * Gabriella takes off at a run for the gym
[17:03] <griffinguy24> When Alex and Gabby head to the gym, they find MacLaggin in his office, He pokes his head up from his desk, "Och, it's ye two. What can I help ye with?"
[17:03] * Alexander_Efasteyo picks up the pace to keep up with Gabriella
[17:03] * Ren_Panganiban grabs his scarf and his weapon, before heading to the gym a few moments later.
[17:03] <Dave-jones_Dan> Dave then gets out his keys and presses the button, a few seconds later the bike screams at a stop in front of them, Dave's new cloak under the seat"
[17:03] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi runs after the others to the treeline and Miyet.
[17:04] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Go ahead, Gabby, you're better with words"
[17:04] <Gabriella> "Coach I have to ask you something VERY important."
[17:04] <griffinguy24> "What is it?"
[17:04] <Gabriella> "Did you or your people find anything made of amethyst, or any amethyst at all?"
[17:05] <griffinguy24> "Amethyst? Not a chance! None of us'd have something made of that! That's much too fancy. Maybe if we were commissioned, but we'd never keep it!"
[17:06] * Alexander_Efasteyo sighs
[17:06] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "So much for an easy answer...why do I even hope for those?"
[17:06] <Gabriella> "Have you worked with it at all since you've settled here?"
[17:07] <griffinguy24> "Never! Why's this so important?"
[17:08] <Gabriella> "Visions. Something with amethyst is the source of all the trouble. Not sure if it means this trouble, but we had to be sure."
[17:09] <griffinguy24> MacLaggin looks to Alex, "Yer girl's an oracle. I'd be careful if I were ye." He sighs, "Well, it it is, we've not been involved"
[17:09] <griffinguy24> ((if it is))
[17:10] * Gabriella nods
[17:10] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I don't suppose any of your clan has even spotted a large deposit of amethyst recently?"
[17:10] <griffinguy24> "They'd have told me. They haven't..."
[17:11] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Any more questions, Gabby?"
[17:11] <Gabriella> "They haven't what?"
[17:11] <griffinguy24> "Found any"
[17:12] <Gabriella> "Were done here. Let's wait for the others."
[17:12] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Um, I don't suppose any of your clan might be having some spare Nemean Bear traps?"
[17:13] <Dave-jones_Dan> "Either that or some spare anti nemean weaponry" Dave adds?
[17:13] <griffinguy24> "If we did, we wouldn't be troublin' ye for this. Yer going to do some hunting, then?"
[17:13] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Yeah Coach, just waiting for the others to meet us here as Gabby said"
[17:13] * Gabriella summons her machete and changes it to the gun, putting it under her coat
[17:14] <griffinguy24> "Best of luck to ye, then!"
[17:14] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Thanks, I'm afraid we're gonna need it"
[17:14] <Dave-jones_Dan> "right o then, see you later coach" Dave adds turning to find his bikers arriving behind him in there gear
[17:15] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Well, back to drawing them out one at a time plan, as much as possible, unless Barry has some better insight"
[17:15] * Ren_Panganiban comes up towards the gym
[17:15] <griffinguy24> So, let's cut to the forest. Tepini's chomping at the bit to get going, everyone is there with their gear. Barry is leading the way, currently smelling like... berries? ("It's an attractant" he says)
[17:16] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi eventually caught up with everyone else, and in her bag, finding the 20 arrows she placed in there, with a grim expression on her face.
[17:16] * Gabriella gets on Tepini "Lets go my friend"
[17:17] <Jahiera_Saladin> A flick of her hand summons her bow, the silver lioness slinks up to her and leads her in, after Gabs.
[17:17] <Dave-jones_Dan> "Right o guys, do we we go with the same plan as last time, me and Alex go close, the rest of you shoot the bears up?"
[17:18] <@sean> "I can definitely be a distraction, if you need it"
[17:18] <Ren_Panganiban> "Well, Jahiera can probably aim for less vulnerable bits and still get some good hits in, right?"
[17:18] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Dave, that won't work too well if we hit five bears at once"
[17:18] <Jahiera_Saladin> "No," Jahiera shuts the plan down. "I'm gonna vote Barry be in charge of this since he knows what he's doing..."
[17:19] <griffinguy24> The travel is... well, uneventful, but Barry stops you about midway through it, "We go barging in, making a ton of noise, they'll run away..." He looks ahead, "There's a clearing that a way... I'll try and draw one one"
[17:19] <Liam> "how fast are ya Barry?"
[17:19] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera immediately nocks one of her nemean arrows.
[17:20] <griffinguy24> "Fast. And tough. Don't worry bout hitting me," ((Epic Dex 2. Epic Stamina 2 as well))
[17:20] * Gabriella climbs up in to a tree to gain a height advantage
[17:20] <Jahiera_Saladin> "I'll avoid it all the same," Jahi replies.
[17:20] <Dave-jones_Dan> "right, so you draw them out and we take them out then?" Dave asks "sounds good to me"
[17:20] <griffinguy24> "I'll yell if'n I get more than one"
[17:20] <@sean> Sean slides his belt out of the loops of his pants, and it reveals to be a long sash with metal balls on the end.
[17:21] <griffinguy24> Ren, you spot your bird flying high above the tree line
[17:21] <Liam> "...nice balls.."
[17:21] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera runs into the surrounding brush, blending in with it.
[17:21] <@sean> "You don't even know." Sean winks
[17:23] <@sean> Sean stands behind a tree.
[17:23] * Liam toss his knife into the air, catches it and shifts it into a massive zweihander
[17:23] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Nice trick, Liam"
[17:23] <Jahiera_Saladin> ((Color me impressed))
[17:24] <griffinguy24> ((Just for that, you get a stunt die for your first action))
[17:24] <@sean> "...nice sword..."
[17:24] * Liam changes it into a maul, then a chain whip, then a katana and back to a zweihander
[17:25] * Ren_Panganiban gives an impressed whistle.
[17:25] <Liam> "whatcha calling a sword?"
[17:25] * @sean laughs
[17:25] <@sean> "Now that's just showing off."
[17:25] <Liam> "duh?"
[17:25] * Liam smirk
[17:25] * Jahiera_Saladin is busy calming herself and focuses on the task ahead.

[17:35] <griffinguy24> Suddenly, you hear a yelp, and Buddy, Cory's coyote, flies through the air, lands in the clearing, and you hear the snap of his spine. As he rearranges himself, Barry rushes forward, followed by two Nemean bear cubs. [[Roll for Join Battle

[16:03] <griffinguy24> Cory grins, "Knew they'd come through!" Lionel looks on with some curiosity, but ultimately says nothing
[16:03] <Gabriella> ((I think Griff forgot about Miyet hehe))
[16:03] <@sean> "wait....this is the lair of that bear thing you guys dealt with the other day, right?"
[16:03] <Gabriella> "Yes."
[16:03] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Yeah Sean
[16:04] <Liam> " the nemean thingy?"
[16:04] <griffinguy24> ((Miyet's out there, too? I thought she was staying w/ Jahi?))
[16:04] <Dave-jones_Dan> "could we not just blow it up or something, there must be some dynamite or something, any that survive the blast will starve or have to find a new way out?"
[16:04] <Jahiera_Saladin> ((Lots of coaxing went into sending out Miyet with Tepi))
[16:05] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Dave, fire would be better. The smoke inhalation should at least hurt them
[16:05] <Liam> "so you got dynamite?...and know how to set it up without losing some precious fingers?"
[16:05] <Gabriella> ((Tepini showed off his fine butt and Miyet finally went lol))
[16:05] <Dave-jones_Dan> "yep but they they might come towards us and then we have a load of bears heading towards us
[16:05] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Good idea, but I think both methods would attract a lot of attention either ways..."
[16:05] <griffinguy24> ((Heh. OK, well, the two kitties are coming then, the coyote and bird are staying
[16:05] <Gabriella> "There are 5 so far...and something else they can't identify."
[16:06] <Liam> "attention aint a problem...mortals getting in danger is"
[16:06] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Five?!?"
[16:06] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi sighs, "I hate unknowns..."
[16:06] <Liam> "ummmm thats a lot right?"
[16:06] <Dave-jones_Dan> "great, do you think we could possibly get Dr.lord to help? or the dwarfs?"
[16:06] <@sean> "I really don't think we should go blowing shit up. At least without knowing exactly what's in there."
[16:06] <Gabriella> "None of them know the scent."
[16:06] <Liam> "whats it look like?"
[16:07] <Gabriella> Dan Dr. Lord would not help! He would make it much worse."
[16:07] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Well, I've been preparing to take on a group, but if my Compelling Presence can't hold them..."
[16:07] <Dave-jones_Dan> [[Dan is just the player name, the characters name is Dave jones]]
[16:07] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Wait, does anyone here know how to communicate with cats in the first place?"
[16:07] <Gabriella> "3 adults, 2 like before. All they have is the scent of the unknown...no visual."
[16:07] <Gabriella> ((doh lol))
[16:08] <Gabriella> "Not yet."
[16:08] <@sean> "Um...nope."
[16:08] * Liam begins to toss his knife up in the air with a thoughtful look
[16:08] <Gabriella> "I can only communicate with Tepini and it is a mind thing."
[16:09] <Dave-jones_Dan> "I've got an idea, how about I send my bikers in and see if we can get them split up, then take them out 1 by 1" Dave asks "they all have their bikes"
[16:09] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "One at a time would be a lot easier if it worked"
[16:09] <Liam> "wait....bait...heh heh...I can do that.."
[16:10] <Liam> "whats the terrain like? is biking gonna be easy for 'em?"
[16:10] * Gabriella stiffens as her eyes go white
[16:10] * Liam blinks and watches
[16:10] <Jahiera_Saladin> She frowns thoughtfully, "I have those arrows, so I guess I can help take out the adults?"
[16:10] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Yeah, wondering if the bears might have a maneuvering advantage in the forest"
[16:11] <Dave-jones_Dan> "yer possibly, the animals might be better"
[16:11] * Gabriella recovers a few seconds later looking less worn out than the last few times.
[16:11] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Well Gabz?"
[16:11] <Liam> "I'm pretty light on my feet"
[16:11] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Jahiera, do like Boo, go for the eyes. Even without its Nemeaness a bear's hide is thick"
[16:11] <Dave-jones_Dan> "so Gabrillella, what do you know, what bad news do the god's have for us"
[16:11] <griffinguy24> Barry's looking like he's itching to say something, but holds back
[16:11] <@sean> "So, does that happen to you often, Gabby? I'd imagine getting sick of it."
[16:11] <Gabriella> "An amethyst is the source of all the misfortune..."
[16:12] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera raises an eyebrow at Barry, "Well?"
[16:12] <Liam> "I stand corrected...NOW....curiouser and curiouser"
[16:12] <Dave-jones_Dan> "amethyst?" says Dave, "I wonder if thats the something the animals couldn't work out what it was, if the amethyst is in there then we might be able to control the bears"
[16:13] <Gabriella> "Tepini says there were no purple stones there"
[16:13] <@sean> "Maybe it's with the unknown scent..."
[16:13] <Liam> "maybe some one around campus has one...."
[16:13] <griffinguy24> Barry: "Listen, I know you guys don't like me, but... well, I know the area... and I've hunted bears before. Not like these, but... well, this is what I'm good at"
[16:13] <Gabriella> "I think we need to find coach. See if he knows anything about that."
[16:14] * Gabriella walks over to Barry and looks him in the eye.
[16:14] <Gabriella> "Do you believe yet. Believe this isn't the work of your god?"
[16:14] <Dave-jones_Dan> "well nice to have another hunter on board barry" Dave says "the main thing is we want to make sure if we do engage them we don't drag them on campus there would be a massicur"
[16:14] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera blinks, "Wait, can we get a roll-call of weaponry here?"
[16:15] * Liam raises his knife,"yes!"
[16:15] * Liam smirk
[16:15] * Alexander_Efasteyo raises his cestus clad fists
[16:16] <griffinguy24> Barry looks at Gabriella and says, "Listen, you believe what you like, and I believe what I will. But these things gave you folk trouble, right? I want to help. I'm a hunter. And I think I'm the only one in this room"
[16:16] <Jahiera_Saladin> "I have a bow and some arrows that can pierce their skin, if anyone else has a bow, I can split it up with you."
[16:17] <Gabriella> "If you can leave your bullshit here then we should be fine."
[16:17] * Gabriella shakes her head "My machete switches to a handgun."
[16:18] <@sean> "I have my sash...and some tricks up my sleeve" [[don't know how to do the colored * text]]
[16:19] <Jahiera_Saladin> ((o.O))
[16:19] <griffinguy24> Cory pulls out a tomahawk. Hank says, "I have a sledgehammer and my gun". Sonia silently takes out a small stick, which expands into a bo staff. Barry takes out his knife, "I've got a shotgun too. And I'll leave our differences here when we get to the woods"
[16:19] <Gabriella> ((/me "whatever you want to say))
[16:19] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Gabby, Barry - forget the other stuff, let's talk about hunting bear"
[16:19] <Gabriella> ((gabby gave them to Dave))
[16:21] <griffinguy24> Suddenly, there's a flash of rainbow light, Dr. Lord appears in the room... but not as you've seen him in the past. He's holding crutches... and his left leg has clearly been cut off above the knee.
[16:21] <Liam> "holy fucking shit!!!"
[16:22] <Gabriella> "OH Shit!"
[16:22] <@sean> "Holy Shit! What happened?"
[16:22] * Alexander_Efasteyo stares in shock for a second
[16:22] * Ren_Panganiban pales when he sees Dr. Lord.
[16:22] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi's eyes widen and she quickly stands up to head to him, "Sir?"
[16:22] <Ren_Panganiban> "What happened!?"
[16:23] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Dr. Lord, can I be of assistance?" []
[16:23] <Liam> ((as do I..)
[16:23] <griffinguy24> Dr. Lord hobbles to a chair and sits down, "There was a battle last night, a bad one. We didn't expect it... They were Aztec, I was captured... my leg became a sacrifice. I'm lucky that was it..."
[16:24] <@sean> [[Can I Assess Health, Dr. Lord?]]
[16:24] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Is there something we can do for you, Dr. Lord?"
[16:25] <Gabriella> "Guys, I'm sure his band set him up. We however have to figure out what to do about the bears."
[16:26] <griffinguy24> He looks to Alex, "Appreciate the help, but I'll live. Frankly, I'm thankful we did. As soon as the Obsidian Butterfly showed up, all hope of winning that battle was lost"
[16:26] <Liam> "huh?"
[16:26] <@sean> "The what?"
[16:26] <griffinguy24> "Itzpapalotl, minor Aztec goddess, totally bonkers
[16:27] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Sounds like an interesting story. But if you don't need us, Dr. Lord, we found the bears and we need to get after them"
[16:27] <Gabriella> "Dr. Lord. Our animals found their lair and also found a scent none of them recognize. Do you have any ideas how we might deal with 3 adult bears and 2 more young ones?"
[16:27] <@sean> "Not to mention any clue as to what the mystery scent could be?"
[16:28] <Gabriella> "And where could we find coach right now."
[16:28] <Liam> "calm down people...give the man a chance"
[16:29] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera returns to her seat, a little shell shocked, and, truth be told, a little scared now, realizing what kind of forces they were going to deal with later on.
[16:30] * Gabriella sits on a desk
[16:30] <Jahiera_Saladin> She sucks it though, and quickly scribbles down a plan to deal with their problem...
[16:31] <Jahiera_Saladin> ...hopefully, no one held back- "Wait, Sadie? You didn't say anything about your weapon..."
[16:31] <Liam> "I still think drawing them away obe by one is a good idea.."
[16:31] <@sean> "So, these animals, how long should it take to get to their place?"
[16:31] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I agree, Liam. I also want to hear what bear-hunting Barry has to say"
[16:31] * @sean agrees
[16:32] <griffinguy24> "Sorry, it's... it's been a while since I've gotten hurt this bad... well, always good to know I can teach you something... Nemean animals are very powerful, twice as strong, fast, and durable as their normal counterparts. The Titanic influence gives them a super-tough skin... attacking the eyes and open mouth is the best means of dealing with them, as is choking them, if you can do that
[16:32] * Alexander_Efasteyo grins at the thought of choking a Nemean Bear
[16:33] <Liam> "you hold'e, I hit'em"
[16:33] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Doctor Lord? Are there any environmental weaknesses we should know about? Or resistances to diseases?"
[16:33] <Gabriella> "Yeah we figured that out with the first one. 45min to get to the lair."
[16:34] <@sean> "We thought maybe fire?"
[16:34] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I thought that, but for the smoke"
[16:34] <griffinguy24> "Also, their own natural weapons are their greatest weakness. Claws, teeth, tusks, horns, whatever it is, it'll rip through a nemean's hide like tissue"
[16:34] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I don't know if a Nemean hide would be immune to fire, but I bet their lungs are not immune to smoke"
[16:35] <Gabriella> For smoke to work we would need to trap them somewhere...it "takes too much time."
[16:36] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Not if their lair is a cave"
[16:36] <@sean> "Not to mention keeping them where they don't want to be while they die from smoke inhalation...doesn't really sound easy."
[16:36] <Jahiera_Saladin> She frowns a little and turns to Barry, "If I may ask, how would you normally deal with a bear?"
[16:36] <griffinguy24> "I personally take issue with starting a forest fire in general," Dr. Lord said, but Barry interrupts, "If bears sense a forest fire, they run away. If we start one, they'll run to the nearest place they can... and probably one of the nearby towns"
[16:36] <Jahiera_Saladin> [[No probs]]
[16:36] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Block the cave entrance, if they're in a cave"
[16:37] <Dave-jones_Dan> "isn't that what I said?" dave asked "just with dynamite"
[16:37] <Liam> "some caves do have more than just the one cliche opening"
[16:37] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Guys, I was only thinking fire if we could get them in a cave or something. I have no desire to start a forest fire on the hopes of getting these things"
[16:38] <Liam> "agree"
[16:38] <Liam> (agreed)
[16:38] <Gabriella> "It sounds like our best option is drawing them out one at a time."
[16:38] <Dave-jones_Dan> "yes we would have tree huggers all over us then, and I hate tree huggers" Dave adds
[16:38] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Most caves turn to be caverns Alex, I'd rather prefer having them outside where I know when they die."
[16:39] <Liam> "good point jahiera"
[16:39] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Hey, your animals scouted the area, I was just trying to think of a way to kill them without must of us dying in the process"
[16:39] <griffinguy24> "The cave systems around here are complex... hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they're coming up FROM one of the caves"
[16:40] <Dave-jones_Dan> "Hand on dwarfs are good with caves right- e.g. can we not contact the dwarfs?"
[16:41] <Jahiera_Saladin> "I don't think that I'd like getting fatebonded to the Dwarves either," Jahi sighed.
[16:41] <Gabriella> "Dr. Lord where do you think I could find Coach right now."
[16:41] <griffinguy24> Dr. Lord says, "Wait a second, have you kids found out the source of the bears yet? Are you sure there's only five?"
[16:41] <Gabriella> "There are 5 for now. And a scent the animals do not recognize."
[16:41] <@sean> "So says Tepini and the other critters."
[16:41] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I'm not sure, but that is our best intel at this time"
[16:41] <Dave-jones_Dan> "so that could be good bad or indifferent" dave says
[16:42] <Gabriella> "And I need to ask Coach if they have seen or found any amethyst."
[16:42] <griffinguy24> "I don't keep in contact with MacLaggin," he says... wait, Gabby, ask him what it smells like...
[16:42] <Jahiera_Saladin> She sighs, "I really, really hate unknowns. Say, is there any moon out?"
[16:42] <griffinguy24> "Just in general"
[16:42] <griffinguy24> ((instead of Gabby, he should've said "miss Velas"
[16:42] <Liam> ((still daytime..?))
[16:42] <Ren_Panganiban> "I think I'm more worried about the unrecognized scent. We're planning on fighting bears - nemean bears, but they're still bears - but what if the unknown element is something we can't handle even if we ganged up on 'im?"
[16:43] <Jahiera_Saladin> ((There time when the moon is out during the day
))[16:43] <@sean> "Especially if this unknown is controlling them with this Amethyst."
[16:43] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Unknowns with jewels are usually bad news..."
[16:43] <Dave-jones_Dan> "I was going to say other wise we just get them to drink my beer, in fact if we could take one alive- BOYAH"
[16:44] <Gabriella> "He says it smells a bit like Dave, but more antiseptic and flowery."
[16:44] <Jahiera_Saladin> She blinks...
[16:44] <@sean> "Like Dave?"
[16:44] <griffinguy24> "Amethyst... I don't think there's anything... Huh? No, nothing directly related to bears"
[16:44] <Dave-jones_Dan> "FLOWERY" Dave roars "I DON'T SMELL FLOWERY"
[16:45] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "We know"
[16:45] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Hush you," she calms Dave down. "A relic maybe?"
[16:45] * Liam snickers
[16:45] <griffinguy24> "Wait, like an Aesir, but flowery and antiseptic? Ask if there's a smell of roots and dirt!"
[16:45] <Dave-jones_Dan> [[for anyone who doesn't know dave doesn't do flowers"
[16:45] <@sean> "No no. You smell like the height of masculinity."
[16:45] * @sean rolls his eyes.
[16:45] <Gabriella> "he says no."
[16:45] <Dave-jones_Dan> "hang on a second, that sounds like my 'step mum'" Dave adds
[16:46] <Ren_Panganiban> "Step mom?"
[16:46] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi turns to Dave, an eyebrow raised.
[16:46] <@sean> "LIke a Goddess step-mom, or a mortal step-mom?
[16:46] <griffinguy24> "It's an elf!" Dr. Lord says disbelievingly, "Well, an Alfar. They're old Norse nature gods... but that doesn't make sense!"
[16:46] <Liam> "ooooh an elf??"
[16:46] <Alexander_Efasteyo> I mutter "Bob"
[16:47] <Liam> "my uncle?"
[16:47] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Gabby, by chance did you learn anything about Bob yet?"
[16:47] <Jahiera_Saladin> "A swartalfar?"
[16:47] <Dave-jones_Dan> "Goddess step mom- sif, my Dad was talking about her- she is in to her plants and stuff supposedly"
[16:47] <Gabriella> "No I haven't had the chance Alex"
[16:48] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "K, thanks Gabby"
[16:48] <griffinguy24> "No, not a Swartalfar, that'd at least make sense, most Alfar are aligned with the Aesir... and almost none would be aligned with bears"
[16:48] <@sean> "Is it in her nature to create nemean bears and let them rampage about?"
[16:49] <Dave-jones_Dan> "not really, but I don't think she would hide in a cave, and Thor would kind of know if his wife was hiding in a cave, but a daughter of sif might?"
[16:49] <griffinguy24> "My Bandmate is Sif's Scion, and while he has a bear as his Jotunblut creature, I can assure you he's in perfect control of it..."
[16:50] <Dave-jones_Dan> "exactly, if sif's scion is corupetted- bang evil bears"
[16:50] <griffinguy24> Dr. Lord shakes his head, "No, it's not Sif's scent. She smells more like honey"
[16:50] <Ren_Panganiban> "But we're pretty sure it's one of thse 'alfar or a swartalfar - whatever the difference between the two of them?"
[16:50] <Dave-jones_Dan> "well that's me out then, I just know cos my dad was telling me about it when we were talking about girl friends of the past"
[16:51] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi giggled a little, inappropriate, maybe, still funny. "Hey, how about one that deals with health and plants?"
[16:51] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Antiseptic for hospitals, flowers for plants."
[16:53] <Dave-jones_Dan> "don't know" Says dave "I only know my Dad, odin, loki and hemidal, he didn't bother telling me about other stuff"
[16:53] <griffinguy24> "That's an Alfar. Swartalfar, the dark elves, are underground, so they have a powerful scent of roots and dirt... Swartalfar are typically titan-aligned, and they'd be most likely to have a hand in this, but if Tepini can't sense it..."
[16:53] <Ren_Panganiban> "Then it's an Alfar. But you were surprised that they might have a hand in this... Are they normally less titan-aligned?"
[16:54] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Perhaps the scent is magically masked"
[16:54] <Dave-jones_Dan> Dave mumbles something about elves and ponsy magic under his breath
[16:54] <@sean> "How difficult might this "Alfar" be to deal with? Especially what with the whole creating Nemean Bears thing?"
[16:54] <Gabriella> "Our cats are at the treeline"
[16:55] <griffinguy24> "Alfar are lesser immortals, capable of powers much like yours... I would be cautious... especially since this makes absolutely no sense"
[16:55] <Jahiera_Saladin> "Or the Amethyst is behind this," she stated as she finished up her mindmap and idea list. Looking up Gabz, she nodded.
[16:56] <@sean> "Should we meet up with the cats and formulate a basic plan on the way?"
[16:56] <Gabriella> "I still think we should talk to coach. What if the dwarves unknowingly took something made of amethyst or an amethyst and it pissed off this elf."
[16:56] <Gabriella> "the bears are only going after the dwarves not anything else."
[16:56] <Dave-jones_Dan> "agreed, or at this rate we are going to be sitting here while 1000 bears eat the rest of campus"
[16:56] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "One attacked Barry"
[16:57] <Gabriella> "While he was out there yes but they are not coming here, or going into the towns."
[16:57] <Ren_Panganiban> "Who might have gotten into their lair, or to close to it. Getting more information before we get out there is best."
[16:57] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Dave, what say we kill them all and let our divine parents sort it out?" said with a wink
[16:58] <Liam> "agree, all this sitting talking bout why is pointless"
[16:58] <Dave-jones_Dan> "sounds like a plan" Dave repys "as long we we go to the pub afterwords!"
[16:58] <@sean> "You guys really are just all testosterone, aren't you?" Sean chuckles.
[16:58] <Dave-jones_Dan> "defo, testosterone works"
[16:59] * Gabriella rolls her eyes
[16:59] <griffinguy24> Dr. Lord says, "I'm not sure... but they'll probably spread out... I'd say go do some culling right now... This'll be your lab practical... I'll be here if you need me. Don't worry, I know when you kids are in danger, and if so, I will Come Running..."
[16:59] <Dave-jones_Dan> "other wise we are women and that's bad man"
[16:59] * Ren_Panganiban chuckles at Dave's words, even if he doesn't agree with it.
[16:59] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Look, we've been talking about this for an hour already, planning is smart, but we're now spinning our wheels"
[16:59] <Dave-jones_Dan> "excellent, killing stuff and then getting good marks for it!"
[16:59] * Gabriella eyes flare in anger at Dave "Fuck off."
[17:00] * Liam walks out and heads towards the forest, whistling a merry tune
[17:00] <Dave-jones_Dan> "time to gather re-enforcements then" Dave says ignoring gab and ringing round the bikers
[17:00] <Jahiera_Saladin> Again, Jahi sighed as she stood up, and looked at Dr Lord, fixing his in her mind as reminder, even Demi-Gods can lose their limbs. What did they say about Heroes like her massive band?
[17:00] * @sean heads out after the other guys.
[17:00] * Gabriella heads for the door "I'm going to go find Coach first. Alex take them to where we talked, the cats will be there."
[17:01] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I say we swing by the gym now. If MacLaggin is there, we can ask him chat. Otherwise, we're wasting time
[17:01] <Dave-jones_Dan> "right behind out alex" dave says
[17:01] <griffinguy24> Lionel and Sadie were reluctant to go with the Band, but a stern look from Dr. Lord told them otherwise. The roommates head to their rooms to collect their gear
[17:01] <Jahiera_Saladin> She walks to Barry and smiles at him, "Come on bear hunter, you have a job to do."
[17:02] <griffinguy24> "You get the coach, I'll get my gun and my dog."
[17:02] * Liam does a quick stretch and starts off at a jog
[17:02] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Well, let's all meet at the gym. Gabby and I can look for MacLaggin"
[17:02] <Ren_Panganiban> "Sounds like a plan, see you in a few."
[17:02] <@sean> "Sounds good."
[17:03] <Dave-jones_Dan> [[note I've got all my relics on me, just need my new cloak which will be on my bike specking of which]]
[17:03] * Alexander_Efasteyo heads out at a jog to the gym to search for MacLaggin
[17:03] * Gabriella takes off at a run for the gym
[17:03] <griffinguy24> When Alex and Gabby head to the gym, they find MacLaggin in his office, He pokes his head up from his desk, "Och, it's ye two. What can I help ye with?"
[17:03] * Alexander_Efasteyo picks up the pace to keep up with Gabriella
[17:03] * Ren_Panganiban grabs his scarf and his weapon, before heading to the gym a few moments later.
[17:03] <Dave-jones_Dan> Dave then gets out his keys and presses the button, a few seconds later the bike screams at a stop in front of them, Dave's new cloak under the seat"
[17:03] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi runs after the others to the treeline and Miyet.
[17:04] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Go ahead, Gabby, you're better with words"
[17:04] <Gabriella> "Coach I have to ask you something VERY important."
[17:04] <griffinguy24> "What is it?"
[17:04] <Gabriella> "Did you or your people find anything made of amethyst, or any amethyst at all?"
[17:05] <griffinguy24> "Amethyst? Not a chance! None of us'd have something made of that! That's much too fancy. Maybe if we were commissioned, but we'd never keep it!"
[17:06] * Alexander_Efasteyo sighs
[17:06] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "So much for an easy answer...why do I even hope for those?"
[17:06] <Gabriella> "Have you worked with it at all since you've settled here?"
[17:07] <griffinguy24> "Never! Why's this so important?"
[17:08] <Gabriella> "Visions. Something with amethyst is the source of all the trouble. Not sure if it means this trouble, but we had to be sure."
[17:09] <griffinguy24> MacLaggin looks to Alex, "Yer girl's an oracle. I'd be careful if I were ye." He sighs, "Well, it it is, we've not been involved"
[17:09] <griffinguy24> ((if it is))
[17:10] * Gabriella nods
[17:10] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "I don't suppose any of your clan has even spotted a large deposit of amethyst recently?"
[17:10] <griffinguy24> "They'd have told me. They haven't..."
[17:11] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Any more questions, Gabby?"
[17:11] <Gabriella> "They haven't what?"
[17:11] <griffinguy24> "Found any"
[17:12] <Gabriella> "Were done here. Let's wait for the others."
[17:12] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Um, I don't suppose any of your clan might be having some spare Nemean Bear traps?"
[17:13] <Dave-jones_Dan> "Either that or some spare anti nemean weaponry" Dave adds?
[17:13] <griffinguy24> "If we did, we wouldn't be troublin' ye for this. Yer going to do some hunting, then?"
[17:13] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Yeah Coach, just waiting for the others to meet us here as Gabby said"
[17:13] * Gabriella summons her machete and changes it to the gun, putting it under her coat
[17:14] <griffinguy24> "Best of luck to ye, then!"
[17:14] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Thanks, I'm afraid we're gonna need it"
[17:14] <Dave-jones_Dan> "right o then, see you later coach" Dave adds turning to find his bikers arriving behind him in there gear
[17:15] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Well, back to drawing them out one at a time plan, as much as possible, unless Barry has some better insight"
[17:15] * Ren_Panganiban comes up towards the gym
[17:15] <griffinguy24> So, let's cut to the forest. Tepini's chomping at the bit to get going, everyone is there with their gear. Barry is leading the way, currently smelling like... berries? ("It's an attractant" he says)
[17:16] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahi eventually caught up with everyone else, and in her bag, finding the 20 arrows she placed in there, with a grim expression on her face.
[17:16] * Gabriella gets on Tepini "Lets go my friend"
[17:17] <Jahiera_Saladin> A flick of her hand summons her bow, the silver lioness slinks up to her and leads her in, after Gabs.
[17:17] <Dave-jones_Dan> "Right o guys, do we we go with the same plan as last time, me and Alex go close, the rest of you shoot the bears up?"
[17:18] <@sean> "I can definitely be a distraction, if you need it"
[17:18] <Ren_Panganiban> "Well, Jahiera can probably aim for less vulnerable bits and still get some good hits in, right?"
[17:18] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Dave, that won't work too well if we hit five bears at once"
[17:18] <Jahiera_Saladin> "No," Jahiera shuts the plan down. "I'm gonna vote Barry be in charge of this since he knows what he's doing..."
[17:19] <griffinguy24> The travel is... well, uneventful, but Barry stops you about midway through it, "We go barging in, making a ton of noise, they'll run away..." He looks ahead, "There's a clearing that a way... I'll try and draw one one"
[17:19] <Liam> "how fast are ya Barry?"
[17:19] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera immediately nocks one of her nemean arrows.
[17:20] <griffinguy24> "Fast. And tough. Don't worry bout hitting me," ((Epic Dex 2. Epic Stamina 2 as well))
[17:20] * Gabriella climbs up in to a tree to gain a height advantage
[17:20] <Jahiera_Saladin> "I'll avoid it all the same," Jahi replies.
[17:20] <Dave-jones_Dan> "right, so you draw them out and we take them out then?" Dave asks "sounds good to me"
[17:20] <griffinguy24> "I'll yell if'n I get more than one"
[17:20] <@sean> Sean slides his belt out of the loops of his pants, and it reveals to be a long sash with metal balls on the end.
[17:21] <griffinguy24> Ren, you spot your bird flying high above the tree line
[17:21] <Liam> "...nice balls.."
[17:21] <Jahiera_Saladin> Jahiera runs into the surrounding brush, blending in with it.
[17:21] <@sean> "You don't even know." Sean winks
[17:23] <@sean> Sean stands behind a tree.
[17:23] * Liam toss his knife into the air, catches it and shifts it into a massive zweihander
[17:23] <Alexander_Efasteyo> "Nice trick, Liam"
[17:23] <Jahiera_Saladin> ((Color me impressed))
[17:24] <griffinguy24> ((Just for that, you get a stunt die for your first action))
[17:24] <@sean> "...nice sword..."
[17:24] * Liam changes it into a maul, then a chain whip, then a katana and back to a zweihander
[17:25] * Ren_Panganiban gives an impressed whistle.
[17:25] <Liam> "whatcha calling a sword?"
[17:25] * @sean laughs
[17:25] <@sean> "Now that's just showing off."
[17:25] <Liam> "duh?"
[17:25] * Liam smirk
[17:25] * Jahiera_Saladin is busy calming herself and focuses on the task ahead.

[18:58] <Ren_Panganiban> Ren takes an aim at the new bear, since it's all fine and good to get the man behind this, but they don't want to get skewered by the bear

[19:01] <Gabriella> ((better too many than not enough))
[19:01] <griffinguy24> Simplifying this, Lionel decides to Guard with his Mace. Barry fires a warning shot, hoping to get the bears' attention
[19:02] <griffinguy24> So, now we're on Tick 6 (finally)
[19:02] * @sean steps out from behind his tree, flourishes his sash above his head and around his body, points at the bears and their mysterious cloaked fellow behind and yells "It's On!!"

[19:10] <griffinguy24> No damage... but it's clinched!
[19:11] <Liam> ((so, two out of three clinched))
[19:11] <Dave-jones_Dan> [[never mind 2 out of 3 clinched]]
[19:11] <griffinguy24> And those were the adults
[19:12] <Dave-jones_Dan> yep we are going to have to get some way of getting though that soak quicker
[19:12] <griffinguy24> Wait, the third's an adult too, but still!

[19:16] <griffinguy24> Unfortunate
