[22:41]	Falconis_	VARY WELL
[22:41]	Falconis_	so WHEN WE LAST SAW OUR HERO
[22:41]	Falconis_	he was sitting pretty in High guard land
[22:41]	|<--	Falconis has left irc.rizon.net (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
[22:41]	Falconis_	he has an aide, who's name I don't remember
[22:41]	=-=	YOU are now known as Falconis
[22:41]	=-=	Mode #anti-matter +o Falconis by ChanServ
[22:42]	Juroko	Rachel? I think it was a rachel.
[22:43]	Falconis	LETS GO WITH RACHel
[22:43]	Falconis	rachel*
[22:43]	Falconis	OKAY
[22:43]	Falconis	so, he has gotten food at 'nogoldinsightjustgoodfood' restaurant
[22:43]	Falconis	what does he do now?
[22:44]	Juroko	Well, Doban will need a new shield since he used his old one as a last ditch 'fuck the wind mage' tactic.
[22:46]	Falconis	ok, there are stores here as well
[22:47]	Falconis	or you can probably apply for a replacement from the high guard comish
[22:47]	Falconis	rachel says
[22:48]	Juroko	Hmmm, apply for a new shield for free or buy one. Say, do they have any fancy magic shields for sale?
[22:49]	Falconis	depends on how fancy and magic you are looking for
[22:50]	Juroko	Well, if it's one thing that Doban has learned, it's that lightning hurts.
[22:52]	Falconis	that's true
[22:52]	Falconis	in that line, they offer a few things that could help
[22:53]	Juroko	Oh boy~
[22:53]	Falconis	a shield that can completely nullify elemental lightning in a tiny area around the wielder( like really tiny) up to a cap
[22:54]	Falconis	can take average elements, but don't expect to be fighting the embodiment of lightning with it and coming out fine
[22:54]	Falconis	another than absorbs it to use for it's own shield
[22:54]	Falconis	and one that's general element resistance
[22:55]	Juroko	Hmmmm, general element seems like a good idea.
[22:55]	Juroko	Because while lightning hurts, so does fire and ice and water and acid and light and darkness.
[22:56]	Falconis	general element shields come in 500g 850g and 1200g prices
[22:56]	Juroko	Lesser, middle, and greater?
[22:57]	Falconis	basically
[22:58]	Juroko	Well, can't spend my bonus all at once.
[22:58]	Juroko	Middle one then.
[23:01]	Juroko	-850 for NICE SHIELD!
[23:01]	Falconis	NOICE SHIELD
[23:01]	Falconis	don't throw it at people
[23:01]	Falconis	you get a GOLD(obviously) shield with a bunch of runic scrawlings all over it
[23:01]	Falconis	it's a bit heavier than you are used to
[23:02]	Juroko	Hmm, well guess then I will have to go to the training yard to practice up with his new gear then
[23:07]	Falconis	okay
[23:08]	Falconis	Rachel starts to lead Baran to the training grounds when
[23:08]	Falconis	Arammis falls from the sky and lands in front of them with a loud boom
[23:09]	Falconis	[Arramis]"There you are! Come with me, you are in my unit and we have a mission"
[23:10]	Juroko	Doban doesn't even have time to respond as he just nods and follows Aramis. "Guess I will see you later Rachel. Take care!"
[23:11]	Falconis	Rachel bows and walks away
[23:11]	Falconis	Arramis sets off at a loping jog towards the hill with the well
[23:11]	Falconis	doban in tow
[23:11]	Falconis	when they get there, Doban sees the rest of the high guard group he saw before
[23:12]	Juroko	(Just picking him up and carrying him because he's SO EXCITED!)
[23:12]	Falconis	[Vanguardguy]"You are late new guy, we would have dispatched 10 minutes ago if Arammis didn't insist on your coming"
[23:14]	Juroko	Doban gave a nod. "Sorry, had to eat and get a new shield."
[23:15]	Falconis	Vanguard guy says nothing
[23:16]	Falconis	[Arramis]" It's fine Dirk, it's not like 10 minutes will affect the outcome much"
[23:16]	Falconis	the man called dirk sighs and hops into the well
[23:16]	Falconis	followed by the rest of the vanguard and then Arramis
[23:17]	Juroko	Doban of course goes with them.
[23:18]	Falconis	one GUT TWISTING TRIP LATER
[23:18]	Falconis	Doban finds himself cold
[23:19]	Juroko	Does his breath make little clouds?
[23:19]	Falconis	Looking around, he can see that he, and the rest of Arammis's group is on a snowy mountain outside a cave with a hole in it
[23:19]	Falconis	aye, it does
[23:19]	Juroko	..SO glad I chose the all elemental resistance shield.
[23:19]	Falconis	The group is already moving away from the cave and up the mountain
[23:20]	Juroko	Following them. Making sure to keep up.
[23:22]	Falconis	tramp tramp up the mountain
[23:22]	Falconis	the going is tough
[23:22]	Falconis	the snow is knee deep
[23:22]	Falconis	...Arammis is blazing a trail though
[23:22]	Falconis	literally
[23:22]	Falconis	the snow seems to melt as he gets close
[23:23]	Juroko	One must wonder if he makes a bit of side money walking down the streets during the winter.
[23:25]	Juroko	Well, considering Doban may want to know what they are doing, he marches up to one of his fellow high guards. "So, since I was a bit late, what exactly is our mission?"
[23:28]	Falconis	A man with golden locks turns to look at him
[23:28]	Falconis	[Locks]"Ice elemental, been making trouble for the people up here"
[23:29]	Falconis	"Normal forces can't handle it, they've called on the imperium for support"
[23:29]	Juroko	Yep, good thing he has a normal elemental resistance shield.
[23:33]	Falconis	aye
[23:34]	Juroko	Also good that their CO is fire aligned.
[23:35]	Falconis	You continue travelling on
[23:35]	Falconis	the air getting colder and colder the higher you go
[23:35]	Falconis	it's becoming actively hard to breathe now
[23:35]	Falconis	then you see it
[23:36]	Falconis	the mountain comes to a level, a wide flat area before a cave, it's mouth and surrounding area covered in ice, you can guess the floor at least a foot thick from this distance
[23:37]	Falconis	cold air pours out of it, stinging like a snowstorm
[23:38]	Falconis	[Arramis]"Alright, the elemental should be in there. Does anyone have any suggestions or are we just going to do this the normal way?"
[23:40]	Falconis	action?
[23:40]	Juroko	Hmmm... cold creature, in cave where it's likely has the advantage.. "Would it be possible to lure it out of the cave and into the open? In case it has something nasty like Ice breath or something."
[23:40]	Falconis	[Dirk]
[23:41]	Falconis	"That sounds about right, an elemental of this description should have a nasty advantage in there, a lure would work quite well"
[23:41]	Falconis	"Are you volunteering to be the bait?"
[23:43]	Juroko	Doban gives a nod as he holds his shield. "It's why I bought a elemental resistance shield. It's not the strongest, but it should hold up enough to the cold. May need some support just to be sure. Not sure how strong it is and if my arse needs to be bailed out."
[23:44]	Falconis	Dirk nods and points at two guards
[23:45]	Falconis	"Frix, Bolo, go with the new guy. You all get to be bait today"
[23:45]	Falconis	"Arramis and I will stay out here with the rest"
[23:45]	Falconis	(party is 12 now with you)
[23:45]	Falconis	(just for info)
[23:45]	Juroko	(12 guards plus me?)
[23:45]	Falconis	(12 including you)
[23:46]	Falconis	A black, many scarred man and the guy with the golden locks step toward you
[23:47]	Falconis	[Black guy]"Bolo, earth"
[23:47]	Falconis	[locks]"Frix, fire"
[23:48]	Juroko	Doban gives a nod"Doban, Earth as well. Right then, let's move." With that, he leads his small unit into the cave.(Any archers or ranged units?)
[23:49]	Falconis	(in Arramus's company? haha no)
[23:49]	Falconis	Bolo has a HUGE SWORD, like, huge huge
[23:50]	Falconis	Frix has...no visible weapons
[23:51]	Juroko	(So Bolo is a Mercenary)
[23:52]	Falconis	(or an archer with a passion for swords :V)
[23:53]	Juroko	(BOOMERRANG SWORD!)
[23:53]	Falconis	so, the rest of the group start dispersing, taking up positions around the flat area
[23:53]	Falconis	Bolo and frix look at you expectantly
[23:54]	|<--	The_Flake_Reunion has left irc.rizon.net (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[23:54]	Juroko	So the other guards are at the cave entrance and Doban, Bolo and Frix are entering the cave proper?
[23:55]	Falconis	unless you actually had another plan that I didn't pick up on
[23:57]	Juroko	No, this sounds about right. Well then, time to venture in a bit, checking the area, making sure the floor isn't too slick when we book it back with an angry glacier given form chasing us.
[23:58]	Falconis	It's so icy
[23:58]	Falconis	so so icy
[23:58]	Falconis	you can feel the cold through your boots
[23:59]	Falconis	it's kind of hard to move on, but not terribly so
[23:59]	Falconis	running might just be an issue though >_>
[00:01]	Falconis	You, Bolo and Frix enter the cave entrance, moving slowly on the ice lest you slip. Your steps ring out on the ice and echo on the sides of the cave
[00:01]	Falconis	as soon as you set foot in the cave proper, the win that was pouring out
[00:01]	Falconis	stops
[00:01]	Falconis	the top of the mountain is quiet
[00:01]	Falconis	action?
[00:03]	Juroko	Hmmm, figured as much. Well then, he starts by dragging spear his spear on the icy floor. Cutting it up, making it rough and hopefully easier to walk on. If the beast knows we are here, it can likely lure it out as well. Still, best be careful.
[00:06]	Falconis	you slice up the ice and Bolo nods at you and follows suit as you continue
[00:07]	Falconis	going deeper right?
[00:07]	Juroko	Yup.
[00:07]	Falconis	DEEEEEEPERRRRRRR
[00:09]	Falconis	You three continue to move deeper in the cave, after a few meters the floor slopes downwards, ice all the way down looking like it would make a slide or something silly like that
[00:10]	Juroko	Hooo boy that would be a bad idea to go down there. Would be balls hard to climb up.
[00:13]	Falconis	likely
[00:13]	Juroko	Hmmm, but the beast is down there.
[00:14]	Juroko	"Say Bolo, do you have any abilities that allow you to make a boulder or something heavy?"
[00:15]	Falconis	Bolo shakes his head
[00:15]	Falconis	"Not really"
[00:15]	Falconis	"Well, I can make my sword heavier I guess"
[00:16]	Juroko	"Hmmmm..." Doban looks around for some big rocks near by.
[00:17]	Falconis	ice
[00:17]	Falconis	ice as far as the eye can see
[00:19]	Juroko	This is going to be tricky then.
[00:19]	Juroko	Figures I could roll some rocks down that slope, maybe smack it and have it come up to us.
