Oh wow. Nevermind getting in trouble for being in the boy's dorm. You're gonna be in trouble for getting in fights!

Grid based combat mechanics? Hmm. Does Nydera have reach with that polearm? Can we attack from more than 1 square away?

>put Unn up in the front left square with Nydera right behind him
Yup. Big man is our tank.

...I just realized we've named our unnamed party member in the same way the periodic table names unnamed elements. Just a bunch of u's and n's.

Remember to avoid actually killing any of them. That would be an awkward way to start the day.

Nydera and Unn have phisical ability allowing them to use different attack form the base ones, but consume stamina points; stamina point grow back every turn tough 3 stamina per turn
Ny 10 sp
25 mp
weapon ability
circleswing 4 sp 4 directional attack
lunge 6 sp three square attack add one square to your reach
magics:
heal1 5 mp heal 25% of total target hp
holy light 10 mp holy damage, work on wicked being only

Unn:

sp 23
mp 5
lunge sp 6 three square attack orizontally only
half sword sp 2 increase accuracy to 90% but only one square of range

Unn
move 1 square to the left and then us lunge on the guy right in front of him

Nydera
move 2 squares to your left then go forward 3 squares and then either finish off the guy Unn just lunged at or if he's already down attack the guy 2 squares in front of you.

>>519963
if no more suggestion is given in two hours i'll go with this

i say unn move one left an two forward, then lunge, hitting two people at once.

nydera one right, 3 forward, lunge as well.

I don't suppose we can choose the 4 directional attack of Circleswing to hit the four diagonals rather than the four non-diagonals?

>>519960
Define 'wicked'? Inherently, supernaturally evil stuff? Over the top villainous types?

And more immediately practical sense: racist freshmen?

And for the love of everything holy, these guys need an attitude adjustment, not coffins, so fight non-lethally.

circleswing is non diagonal only, but it can be upgraded growing up in levels
>>519983
y-yeah...hmm" she look at Unn" w-we shouldn't kill them, they j-just need to get straightened by our superiors..." Unn put an hand on your head "you truly are cut for be a paladin, you know, very well, I will avoid vitals"
>>519983
you do so, knocking down two enemy, Oh! I forgot, if your stamina reach zero you loose a turn, btw...it's your enemy turn now, also tNelin is scared and out of stamina, next turn he will able to move, but unable to attack, unless you use a spell or an item to remove the fear status, yes it's a thing, don't ask

the recruits act, the ones close to Ny attack her causing 20 damage, the lv1 move away from you and use a healing potion getting back at full health your turn again
next battle will be better drawn and with sprites, sorry this is so sketchy, didn't thought this trough so well...

unn, hit that one back with half-sword, ny circle swing.

Is friendly fire a thing with AoE melee attacks? If so Unn should move forward one before half-swording the guy.

>>520258
half sword is not a AoE attack, it only increase precision and the chance of crits, alslo, there's only one enemy close to him, my mistake in the drawing...

>>520268
What I mean was Unn moving up so he wouldn't get hit when Ny uses the circle swing (though now that I think about it I should have asked if the circle swing keeps the reach of 2 or only has 1 range).

>>520270
only one

>>520268
yes, i know, half sword to the one enemy that hit him.

>>520251
this sounds good

Also when you make the sprites will you be putting there health and stamina next to them as well or will you just start putting it in the message bar?

you do so , the one behind you fall unconscious, but miss the one on your side. Ffff, I forgot to tell you one thing! The chances of hitting your enemy are much bigger if you attack him from behind or the sides...eh, it's not an hard battle anyway...
Oh, Unn knock his enemy down too and Nelin can now move.
The many loss have left the enemy team in a state of chaos, you can attempt to make them admit defeat and, if you are convincing enough, to join your cause

don't really see a point in trying to get these guys to join other then to stop any future bullying but the way you described them makes it sound that most if not all of them will wash out before long anyway, that and we are about to go on our first mission as paladins which is way we came down here in the first place.

Anyway have Unn say something (since we are still trying to hide the fact that Nydera is a girl) and then if they run off go check to see if Nelin is alright.

If they do still want to fight have Nydera move up next to Nelin and use heal on herself, then have Unn use another lunge to get the guy that Nydera just missed and what are Nelin's abilities? because I think we should have him then finish off the last guy (nonlethally of course) to finish the fight.

let's just go wth admit defeat
"surrender now and we will let you off the hook, but persist and you will not be afforded another chnace"

As to what to say:
Obviously these guys are new here, and don't quite understand how paladins work. Paladins practice exactly two methods of conflict resolution: showing mercy to those who will see reason, and thoroughly smiting those who won't. Which of these would they like us to demonstrate?

as Unn say that the remaining punks run away, screaming sorry
Unn, well that went well

Sudden battle end!

All right Nydera, time to check on your other friend. Remember, you have healing magic if it's needed.

well now that's over with go see if Nelin is ok then lets head back to the others before we're late

Oh and good job out there Nydera that was really impressive, you're going to be a great paladin real soon I can tell.

you move closer to Nelin to check his conditions, he doesn't seems hurt but is still a bit shaken by the experience and as you give him an hand to help him standing up again he jump at your neck and hug you...eh, this elves...
Ne:"Ny! thank you, I was so a fraid I couldn't move!"
Ny:"Yip!"

Always with elves and the hugging, huh?

Calm him down, heal him up if necessary, and let's see if we can back to where we're supposed to be before we miss anything.

tell hims it's ok and start heading back to the rest of your friends. It would suck to have won all that just to find out you're late. talk with him as you walk, maybe ask what all that was about.

>>525992
With this sort of meek behavior, i must know: what part of the order is this elfie graduating into? Some sort of scholar or support role?

she leave the elf embrace and put her hand on his shoulders" It's ok, You are safe now" he nod "T-thanks...sorry for the awkward hug..."
NY:" N-no, i-it wasnt awkward..."
Unn:" time to head back,we have not more time left" you and Nelin remeber that Unn was there and both get quite red then start to run in the main hall direction

you reach the main all just in time, the large pillar at the center of it come awake and you find yourself in front of the heads of the order
"YOUNG PALADINS, TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF YOUR NEW LIFE! THIS IS THE FIRST OF THE MANY TESTS THAT YOU WILL ENCOUNTER AS PALADINS AND WILL DECIDE YOUR FATE AND POSITION IN THE HIERARCHY OF THIS GREAT ORDER" The voice stop and your friends appears close to you " PALADINs NYDERA, NELIN, RODA, FIO AND "static"" oh for fuck!" YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN AS A TEAM, NOW CHOOSE YOUR LEADER AND DESTINATION FOR YOUR FISRT MISSION!"
a screen of light appear 5 lacation names appear:...BTW, this guy have broke my ears...
- liudrum: a small island in the middle of the ocean
- gherial: a village dug inside a mountain
- hilera: an abandoned desert fortress now a small city
-kolud: a fragment of a large sky continent floating half a mile from the ground
- skolir: a semi submerged city in a swamp
the same voice boom again " NO FURTHER EXPLANATION WILL BE GIVEN, BUT YOU CAN DISCUSS ON THE LOCATION WITH YOUR COMPANIONS! YOU HAVE A DAY TO DECIDE AND EQUIP YOURSELF WITH WHAT YOU THINK YOU MAY NEED FOR THE TEST, THEN YOU WILL BE SEND TO THE CHOOSEN LOCATION"

All right, so step one, discuss those locations with your teammates. Anyone familiar with any of those places, or know anything about them? That could factor into our decision.

Then we can make our decision and prepare.

I'm guessing when the static cut in that was when they where giving Unn's name huh?

As for what to do know, see what people know of any of these places (feel free to throw in what you know as well) and try to get an idea on where you would like to head off to. Then ask who would like to be the team leader and we'll see where that takes us.

let's gather at a central area for our team and discuss.

yes, does anyone here know about any of the places?

>>537340
Floating continent fragment looks interesting.

One really vital thing for supplies though: Water. Every single location has the potential for either no water, or bad water. Even if Fio or anyone else has magic capable of summoning it, the group shouldn't depend on that kind of thing.

you move to one of the common areas of the fortress and sit at one of the many table
NY:" Hmm, s-soo...does anyone know something about this places?"
Unn, I heard of the sky city, but it's probably an old information, still , we may try to look in the library after the massive facepalm you move in the library

Luckily for you not many had the same idea yet and you find yourselves a free table, Unn speak up first and say " OK I think we should choose our leader and the second in command too, if the leader is incapacitated, I vote Nydera and Roda, since you two have the strongest healing magic, that's my opinion, said that, I'll see what i can find on the location they assigned us" he then move toward the reception leaving you 4 to decide what to do vote who you want as leader and second in command for the battles, if both leader and second die in combat is game over BTW.

Well Nydera will be the leader obviously since she has us to give her GREAT LEADERSHIP ADVICE.
And i would suggest Unn as second in command since he has lots of health and wont be incapacitated easily, but i get the feeling that he will refuse. If that is the case then yeah Roda could be second in command.

And Kolud sky island sounds like the most interesting destination.

Healers as leaders? I suppose that works, since if you lose the healers the party is gonna die anyways. Might as well bypass painful part in the middle.

Let's see what we can find out about these places before deciding.

>>539057
Seems reasonable.

also before we really go to far into this what our team's skills again? Unn is the tank, Nydera is more of the fast agile type, and Nelin is our archer. What about the rest of the team.

also what have you found on those places so far?

Roda is the one most focused on magic, she can heal buff and attack from afar, not as far as an archer, tough..."
Fio's skill?
"uh...F-fio Is kinda the close ranged really powerful type, She is probably even stronger then Unn...for an Elf she is Off the scale..."
So the only reject is you? Man I hate this legacy thing...

the group chat for a while over the whole leader thing until Unn return with three books
"Turn out there is some clue only on three of the assigned location and even those information are very limited, it seems that the higher ups had moved most of the books we need to a restricted area of the library...damn" as he see the puppy eyes of the group he place te books down" Don't worry guys, The higher ups are not insane, they wont sent us to a place that is too far from our limits... I hope... so don't worry he then explain what he found out

" so The jungle ruins belonged to an old civilization of shamans, they started worshipping a shady god that gave them a massive power over nature, but after the war of the gods the god died and the shamans power went out of control and all of them turn into trees...that's it,nothing else...The second location I found information off Is the underground city, not much is known besides that it belonged to dwarf" the elves in the group shiver at the idea typical...Unn don't seems to care, tough e may have more in common then what I thought..."The dwarf one day vanished, way before the disappearence of the whole race, tough..."
Nel:"T-they dug t-too far?!"
Fio:"T-there I-is probably a-another explanation...R-right?"
Unn:"I'm afraid not, but it also say that the thing they dug died later on, still is dwarf city, lots of traps are to be expected, Other questions?" the two elves shake their heads, Our protagonist seems to be spacing out..."The last one...the book says is an abandoned Platinum Elf island" This time the whole group look disgusted "It's abandoned, guys, we wont meet those pricks, anyway, it says a pretty bad mgical incident was the reason why they had to flee the city...mhh, I knew it a little different, but the description is not too far off, that's it, it's all I could find"
NY:"Hmm,th-thanks all the same..."

let's just go with the flying island since Unn has some idea about it even if it's outdated and we it's one of the few place we could get any info on, so it's sounding like our best choice seeing as it's the area we have the most info about.

As for the leader thing, will Unn doesn't want to lead otherwise he would have voted for himself, Fio may be strong but she doesn't look like the type who would be good at telling others what to do, Nelin as we've seen panics under presser or when the odds are against his favor so I don't think a lead role would be good for him at this time. Shit that does just leave you and Roda. As for Roda, we've only really talked to her once and she only said one sentence to us so it's kinda hard to judge her character with so little to go on. I say we let you pick, you can either vote for yourself or for Roda to be team leader and the other can be the 2nd.

I'd say we don't want to go underground. Easy to get trapped or stuck, and food and stuff is harder to come by. Plus you need to burn magic or fuel for light. (Unless everyone in the party has darkvision, or we can supply magic sonic echolocation from our magic tuning fork?).

"Hmm...I don't think i can give ecolation to others, but it could be possible for me, you should be an amplifier for my sound related affinity...."
Plusthe elves wont cry all day about the dwarf digging too deep, hopefully...anyway "S-should we go to the skycity? It's the only place we actually know something about" Sh turn toward Unn "You have the most insight on this, so we could use that, right?"
Unn:" yeah, I also know the most ipostant building disposition, so can tell whre we are inside the place, that if the buildings still stand...My info are quite old, sadly; Anyway, have you decided the leader yet?"
the group nod "We went with the healer idea..." " Good, now what leader? We have some more time before having to leave"

wait, do you just become the leader or did Roda? I thought Roda was a mage not a healer. Anyways if you're the leader I would say we should just load up on supplies first and then head off for our first mission, if you're not the leader suggest this to your group.

How about you all pose as a team because i am getting confused on who is who and what they can do.
