“Uhhhhhhhh”. The noise escapes from your lips as you try to push the orc's corpse off of you. He's trapped your arms and you don't have the proper leverage to throw him off. Thankfully you see Rowe approach you and rush to help.

Together she helps you roll the orc off of you and into the riverbed. She gives you a hand to pull yourself up. You quickly check your stuff. Your familiar was almost crushed and drowned, but you open up the satchel quick enough to pour out most of the water. Muffin looks very upset. It's a good thing you didn't have that revolver in your pack, the water would have probably ruined it. One of your arrows broke in its quiver and one of your throwing darts fell out and was most likely washed down the river. Minor losses all around.

You scan the rest of the skirmish's battleground. It appears Kyra has had to beat that one orc with her blackjack multiple times with the aid of the two prisoner's kicking it to finally subdue it. She, Quissonce, the human and the dwarf have moved on to tying up the four sleeping orcs.

The last orc, the biggest one that Gabby engaged is on the ground with Gabby sitting on top of him, pinning his arms behind his back. She is currently smacking him upside the head and punching him in the gut mercilessly, while Eve is pointing the decanter of endless water at his face on the highest setting, hosing him down. He's stubbornly refusing to go down, but you have a feeling it's only a matter of seconds before Gabby has this under control.

You quickly fish out your marble and channel some healing energy into your head wound. As the pain goes away, you ponder on what element of this situation you should tackle first.

The current edition of L5R books are gorgeous. Too bad their binding is so terrible.

Labyrinth Lord's are one of my favorite, information is formatted compact and nicely.

Earthdawn first edition. The game has issues, and nobody I know is actually willing to play Earthdawn, and I wouldn't be playing 1st edition anyway, but from a pure book perspective it's great. It's from an era when books had to be tight, before cheap printing and sizzle before steak led to massive book bloat. The art is solid, the concepts are well-expressed, it's a shame I don't get more use out of it.

I shouldn't be angry...I mean remembering two very different lives is pretty nice, no it's really nice. I remember meeting Lawrence back in grade school, he came and sat by me during lunch, despite the fact I had a cold that week. And I remember breaking Lucy's first Admirers nose for admitting he only liked her for her...figure. and I met Sam and Bailey twice, which is nice too I guess.

I sigh, I remember stopping Sam from beating in Lawrence's face, and I remember giving him water as he crawled half dead into our family farm.

And I met Bailey when she started chewing out Sam for making me cry with a cruel joke, and I met her here when Me and Lucy went looking for a witch to tell us about our future...like who'd we'd end up marrying, and all we found was an old hut with a girl around our age sitting in it and...

I smirk, So many memories and places, half of which don't go with the other half at all, it's a weird sensation...but not a bad one. No the only thing that's really disturbing me here is that I seem to be losing time, I don't remember how I killed Johnny or even how I got there, and all I can remember after I walked into the tomb with Sam and Lucy is suddenly seeing Sam clutching his bleeding face, crying for the first time since I've known him...in both sets of memories.

I shake my head, standing up. No, this is making me feel sick, I need to..I need to get my mind off of all this before I...before I...don't know.

Who do you go talk to?
[] Lucy
[] Minor
[] Sam
[] Wiltac
[] Some of the men who fought with you
[] the girl who tried to peep on you in the bath
[] the innkeeper
[] write in

Also started on two new advance classes
and just need to stat out lich, Ascended and gearkin for the advance races.

Right now the most fun I'm having is with my Gruul Fresh Meat deck. It's janky as fuck and the only thing that actually cost any money was the Parallel Lives.

>Cast Parallel Lives and dump Eldrazi Spawn on table
>Sacrifice all spawn, cast Fresh Meat
>Slap shit with 9 billion 3/3 beast tokens

Double the fun with Impact Tremors out.

>What's the craziest win you've ever managed to pull at the kitchen table?
Uhh

Probably managing to get all 4 Mardu Ascendancies on the table and shitting out 3/3 first striker Goblins (Obelisk of Urd + Bloodmark Mentor)

>>44188290
I took apart stiflenought because it sucks now and built a kitchen table deck

the basic game plan is use torpor orb or sundial of the infinite to play phyrexian dreadnought or eater of days and beat face. rest of deck is counterspells and digging.

Devlinson is exhausted. His eyes are red-rimmed and his white shirt is rumpled, the front carelessly smeared with tobacco ash.

“Big night on the town, Dev?”

The olderman wipes his face with his hand, pulling down his lower lip. Peeling it back reveals a misaligned row of nicotined stained teeth. Brown rot festers visibly in the crevices.

“Yeah,” he says, lifting his eyes to meet yours, “You could say- aw, Christ.”

His gaze is fixated on your nose or maybe more honestly, on your schnozz.

“It’s too early for this, Vince. Take it off.”

“I… I can’t.”

“Oh God.”

“I’m hoping the swelling will go down eventually.”

“Me too Vince, me too. I hope you didn’t spend a lot of money on that.”

You keep your silence. You’ve been trying to convince yourself that your little makeover isn’t really that bad since this morning, when you climbed out of bed and undid the bandages in front of the Shan family’s bathroom mirror.

I guess that's karmic in a way.

It's not like Vince had a phone until recently though.

I'll be honest, when we start thread 1 so long ago, I didn't think we'd get to this point.

Fablous Bill needs to really just admit that he's bald and shave that last bit of hair off, or at the very least let a deamonette style that shit for him. He looks like he crawled out of a drainpipe, and that's no way for someone as important as he to be.

(cont.)
And here is where solid fact ends, and folklore and speculation begin. It is said that the warlord was so distraught at her death by his hand that he brought the blade that killed her back to the smith who crafted it. The warlord was something of a poet, and so he composed a piece in her honor, and had it inscribed on the tang of the blade.
"The glorious sun,
night on reaching its zenith,
shaded by my hand."
The warlord had only shaded the sun, however. He did not extinguish it permanently. It is said that her spirit followed the weapon, and while the poem was inscribed, she entered the blade. Since the warlord's passions had betrayed her, she would ensure that they became his downfall as well. The sword seemed all the finer after her death, a fact only to e explained by her spirit's strength guiding it. But her will exerts itself from within the sword. She drove the sword's first master mad with rage and jealousy until he could no longer control himself. The urges within him took over, and he died senselessly in a duel. He drunkenly accused another noble of sleeping with one of his favorite whores, and was cut down in the street, too blind with hate for his sword to find its mark.
Since that time, the weapon has changed hands many times, almost never peacefully. Usually after her master has brought about his own ruin through foolish actions taken over some perceived slight or insult.
