Dec 03 13:06:48 <DamienLunas>	So when we last left our heroes
Dec 03 13:06:56 <DamienLunas>	they put the beat down on Boss Frog and his crew
Dec 03 13:06:58 <DamienLunas>	just like old times
Dec 03 13:07:19 <DamienLunas>	The boss was just knocked out by the raikou
Dec 03 13:08:53 	Hope stretches, grinning. "Not even a challenge." She's a blonde-haired woman wearing a sparkling green jacket and jeans, and is noticably pregnant.
Dec 03 13:09:08 	Thunder_Fang sheaths his blades and approaches the unconcious man. "Now...what to do with you..."
Dec 03 13:09:44 	Klark Scratche his chin. "Yeah...Still, makes you think about when we first started out though."
Dec 03 13:10:30 <Hope>	"He's been sacrificing people, huh? Back in Ribbonwood that might have been a death sentence... but now I guess we get gramps to send some guys to pick him up. Pft, laws."
Dec 03 13:10:34 <DamienLunas>	The raikou speaks up, "He still has answers to give us, my son. But first, we should free the virgin maiden."
Dec 03 13:12:00 <Hope>	She tilts her head curiously.
Dec 03 13:12:03 	Thunder_Fang nods. "Indeed. He can do no harm in his current state," he bends down to examine the man for a key ring or something similar.
Dec 03 13:12:33 <Thunder_Fang>	"Even if he woke up and tried to book it, he couldn't out run the pack."
Dec 03 13:12:37 <DamienLunas>	you find the keys to his cell as some folk come out of the woodwork to watch waht's going on.
Dec 03 13:12:46 <DamienLunas>	his cells*
Dec 03 13:12:46 <Hope>	"I have to say, Raikou looks cooler than I expected."
Dec 03 13:13:01 	Klark Looks around at all the people. "Yep, just like the old days."
Dec 03 13:13:25 <Hope>	(Were we given the guys' name by the Zoroark?)
Dec 03 13:13:47 <Hope>	"Feels good, doesn't it, Klark?"
Dec 03 13:14:09 <Arthur>	"I wouldn't exactly call it 'relaxing', but."
Dec 03 13:14:16 <DamienLunas>	(I think not)
Dec 03 13:14:33 <Arthur>	"Dunno, maybe a sense of scale? There's a lot more STUFF involved here."
Dec 03 13:15:07 	Thunder_Fang turns to Hope and Klark, and removes his mask and lowers his hood. His hair's a dark purle, almost passible as black, with a matching colored goatee. His eyes are red and have a feline curvature to them. "I thank you for your assistance, but I'm confused why a band from Ribbonwood would track someone like me down."
Dec 03 13:15:08 <Klark>	"Heh, it was alot easier then."
Dec 03 13:15:30 <Hope>	"Well, gramps said you were in trouble, and we had a favor to ask besides."
Dec 03 13:15:32 	Arthur points at the owl. "That guy."
Dec 03 13:15:53 	Thunder_Fang raises an eyebrow. "My father?"
Dec 03 13:16:01 	Klark Nods.
Dec 03 13:16:03 	Hope nods. "Ribbon?" she looks around.
Dec 03 13:16:17 <Arthur>	"We don't have the Entei around for it, though, do we?"
Dec 03 13:16:24 <Hope>	"Our Ho-Oh apparently needs to bond with Raikou and his kin to reach her true form."
Dec 03 13:16:32 <Klark>	"Could always just stop by after this?"
Dec 03 13:16:34 <Hope>	"Arthur, we met a guy in Celadon with one."
Dec 03 13:16:39 <Hope>	"Remember?"
Dec 03 13:16:49 <Arthur>	"Is he here? I don't see him here."
Dec 03 13:17:00 <Klark>	'Do we need all three at once?"
Dec 03 13:17:07 <Hope>	"I don't know, actually."
Dec 03 13:17:09 	Giantree ([email protected]) has joined #TurfWars
Dec 03 13:17:09 <Thunder_Fang>	He shakes his head.  "We can discuss this in a bit, I'd like to resolve this issue first and free their captive."
Dec 03 13:17:10 <Arthur>	"You'd figure it'd be some sort of thing like with Tornadus."
Dec 03 13:17:15 <Hope>	"Right."
Dec 03 13:17:30 <Hope>	"Let's save who he's been locking up."
Dec 03 13:17:41 <Klark>	"Right. Any idea where they are?"
Dec 03 13:18:05 <DamienLunas>	Fang has it on good authority that she is being held in one of the cells until they were ready to transport her.
Dec 03 13:18:52 <Thunder_Fang>	"In one of their cells, presumably.  This man did claim to be a sheriff."
Dec 03 13:19:57 <Thunder_Fang>	He then turns and heads to where ever that sheriff's office would be.
Dec 03 13:20:17 <DamienLunas>	Right behind the frogs of course. They were all hanging out in front of the office when fang went to confront them.
Dec 03 13:20:18 	Hope jogs along with him.
Dec 03 13:20:38 	Klark Follows after, looking back at Boss Frogg.
Dec 03 13:21:57 <Hope>	"So what's the deal... he mentioned Regigigas, right?"
Dec 03 13:22:01 <Hope>	"You know anything about all that?"
Dec 03 13:22:43 <Hope>	"It's hard to believe that a pokemon like that could be demanding virgin sacrificies..."
Dec 03 13:23:00 <Thunder_Fang>	"Something along the lines of ritual sacrifice.  They kidnapped girls and gave them to the creature, from what I understand."
Dec 03 13:23:23 <Thunder_Fang>	He fiddles with the keys a bit as he enters the building and heads to the cells.
Dec 03 13:23:25 <Hope>	"Tch. That pisses me off."
Dec 03 13:23:52 <Klark>	'What did they hope to do?"
Dec 03 13:23:56 <Arthur>	"Maybe it's all a huge misunderstanding."
Dec 03 13:25:18 <Thunder_Fang>	"I don't know much more about the creature than you do.  Perhaps it is, but their actions were not something I could abide by."
Dec 03 13:25:20 <DamienLunas>	you head in, finding the girl in the cell, bound and gagged but otherwise unharmed.
Dec 03 13:26:06 <DamienLunas>	"An Archaic practice." the raikou says, following you in. "Certainly not one for this day and age."
Dec 03 13:26:18 <Hope>	"I know, right?"
Dec 03 13:26:20 <Arthur>	(oh god)
Dec 03 13:26:25 <Arthur>	(what do I do)
Dec 03 13:26:34 <Arthur>	(now that psychics are changed)
Dec 03 13:26:40 	Klark Shrugs.
Dec 03 13:26:52 <Klark>	(I know that feel arthur. All my stuff is changed. Allof it.)
Dec 03 13:27:11 <Klark>	"We could always go ask this Regithing?"
Dec 03 13:27:21 <Hope>	"Better not without being prepped for a fight."
Dec 03 13:27:23 	Thunder_Fang unlocks the cell and undoes the bindings. "You are free now, ma'am. Your captives have been dealt with."
Dec 03 13:27:34 <Hope>	(Captors :B)
Dec 03 13:27:52 <DamienLunas>	She takes a deep breath, "Oh thank heavens for that..."
Dec 03 13:27:57 <DamienLunas>	"... but what happens to us now?"
Dec 03 13:28:14 <Hope>	"What do you mean?"
Dec 03 13:28:34 <Thunder_Fang>	(akdlhfa)
Dec 03 13:28:42 <DamienLunas>	"They said they needed 3 of us ladies fer the big creature what was causin' all those earthquakes..."
Dec 03 13:29:15 <Thunder_Fang>	"When did...you last see the other two?"
Dec 03 13:29:25 <Hope>	"Well, if Regigigas is causing trouble, we could probably go knock some sense into it..." she looks thoughtful.
Dec 03 13:29:41 <Klark>	"It'd be par for us."
Dec 03 13:29:44 <DamienLunas>	She shakes her head. "Last two girls already got sent off to the creature."
Dec 03 13:29:58 <DamienLunas>	"I was supposed to be the third so that the earthquakes would stop."
Dec 03 13:30:03 <Klark>	"How long ago?"
Dec 03 13:30:41 <DamienLunas>	"Bout a month apart fer each of us..."
Dec 03 13:30:50 <Hope>	"Urgh."
Dec 03 13:31:04 <Klark>	'Damn."
Dec 03 13:31:05 <Thunder_Fang>	He looks over his shoulder for the giant joltik on his back. "Sister Spark Spinner, go bind those fools out front and see if you can't get a few of them concious for questioning."
Dec 03 13:31:28 	Hope flinches the slightest bit when she suddenly notices the joltik.
Dec 03 13:31:36 <DamienLunas>	"Joll~" she says hopping off your back.
Dec 03 13:31:46 <Klark>	"Ugh."
Dec 03 13:32:28 <Hope>	"Well, I guess that leaves us with a few decisions here... but first, why don't we introduce ourselves?"
Dec 03 13:33:21 <Hope>	"I'm Hope, of the Ribbonwood Immortals."
Dec 03 13:33:49 	Klark Nods his head to Fang "Klark."
Dec 03 13:35:07 <Hope>	"We need your help, but we're not just going to turn a blind eye to this town in need. I think we should go visit this gigas ourselves... who else in favor?" she looks back at the others.
Dec 03 13:35:37 	Klark Grins "Onwards?"
Dec 03 13:36:09 <Thunder_Fang>	He nods.  "I'm known as Thunder Fang.  Your help would be appreciated.  Deserts aren't exactly kind on my pack and me."
Dec 03 13:36:18 <Hope>	"Like the pokemon move? Huh."
Dec 03 13:36:28 	Hope nods.
Dec 03 13:36:30 <Klark>	"Huh, Sobek knows that one."
Dec 03 13:36:45 <Hope>	"And if it helps you out any, the 'gramps' I kept mentioning was Professor Willow."
Dec 03 13:36:52 <Hope>	"Er, president."
Dec 03 13:37:02 <Hope>	"He's the one who asked us to look for you, though a bit indirectly."
Dec 03 13:38:11 <Arthur>	"I'm... Air Slash!"
Dec 03 13:38:15 <Arthur>	"No, kidding. Arthur."
Dec 03 13:38:16 <Thunder_Fang>	He nods.  "I know the man.  He's requested my assistance in the past for a mission here or there."
Dec 03 13:38:51 	Hope nods. "Then we team up, worry about why we came a bit later?"
Dec 03 13:39:01 <Thunder_Fang>	"It's...strange." he eyes the immortals curiously.  "You don't look like gang members.  Least not the kind I'm accustomed to."
Dec 03 13:39:10 <Thunder_Fang>	"Nor act like them."
Dec 03 13:39:21 <Hope>	"Hah. You'd actually be surprised. A lot of the gangs in ribbonwood are fairly nice people."
Dec 03 13:39:33 <Hope>	"We just happened to be the ones that managed to finally unite the city."
Dec 03 13:39:42 	Klark Shrugs. "We're the Immortals."
Dec 03 13:40:48 <Thunder_Fang>	He shrugs as well.  "I was told to avoid your home and leave its residents to solve their own problems, maybe that wasn't as foolish as it sounded in the past."  He looks to the formally captive girl.  "Anyway, ma'am, we don't know terribly much more than you do about the others.  But for now, you should be safe."
Dec 03 13:41:06 <DamienLunas>	"Yes... thank you."
Dec 03 13:41:18 <Hope>	"Yeah, despite things, Ribbonwood was a war zone."
Dec 03 13:42:42 <Hope>	"But it's free now, we're getting aid from the government, so I think the ban on going to Ribbonwood's been lifted for most everyone. We were actually surprised to find out civilization was still ticking beyond the wastes."
Dec 03 13:43:17 	Hope waves to the woman. "Stay out of trouble!"
Dec 03 13:43:24 <Thunder_Fang>	"And yes, we have an issue with the Gigas to resolve.  Hopefully by now my pack has shocked a few of them awake again."
Dec 03 13:43:40 <Thunder_Fang>	"The frog folk, that is."
Dec 03 13:43:59 <Hope>	"Yeah, let's rustle up some info, why don't we?"
Dec 03 13:44:21 	Klark Nods.
Dec 03 13:44:57 	Hope hasn't returned Manaphy, by the way
Dec 03 13:45:21 <Hope>	(Is Ribbon with us or no?)
Dec 03 13:45:26 <Thunder_Fang>	"Agreed," and with that he turns to head outside, along with 400 pound 6'3 Father how did you even get in here.
Dec 03 13:45:36 <DamienLunas>	The woman walks out with you, and runs into the arms of a young weedy looking man. "Oh Marshall..."
Dec 03 13:45:37 	Hope heads out
Dec 03 13:45:42 <DamienLunas>	(Ribbon is with you.)
Dec 03 13:45:58 <Hope>	(To clarify, zoof, Ribbon is a babby, fat ho-oh)
Dec 03 13:46:09 <Klark>	(With a ribbon =3)
Dec 03 13:46:18 <Thunder_Fang>	(:3c)
Dec 03 13:46:42 <DamienLunas>	Marshall holds her for a moment before letting go and looking up at Fang. "Thanks for all the help, Mr. Fang."
Dec 03 13:49:27 <Thunder_Fang>	He nods.  "Normally I'd deal with ruffians like these myself myself," he says with a gesture to the frog folk. "But I think you and your townsfolk are better suited for that.  I'll leave them in your care and judgement when through with them."
Dec 03 13:49:31 	Hope smiles, watching them.
Dec 03 13:50:14 	Hope then heads over to Boss Frog's group.
Dec 03 13:50:42 <Thunder_Fang>	He walks back over to the former 'sheriff' and plucks his badge away.  He offers it to Marshall.  "Perhaps you'd like to take that charge, as the next sheriff?"
Dec 03 13:52:38 <DamienLunas>	:o
Dec 03 13:53:00 <DamienLunas>	He takes the badge carefully and nods. "I'd be honored. I won't let this here town down."
Dec 03 13:53:37 	Hope studies the men a moment.
Dec 03 13:54:02 <DamienLunas>	The joltikmonster bites at boss frog and sends some revitalizing jolts through him
Dec 03 13:54:11 <DamienLunas>	"Ow-stop-I say- stop that!"
Dec 03 13:55:05 *	Kit is now known as TF2Kit
Dec 03 13:56:04 <Thunder_Fang>	He gives a toothy grin, it's obvious his dentures are...definetly more fang like than most humans.  "Good.  Hopefully next time I stroll through here, it won't be on business," he says jovially.
Dec 03 13:56:35 <Hope>	"Alright, you. Explain yourselves and this nonsense with Regigigas and why he's been blackmailing this town for sacrifices."
Dec 03 13:59:17 <Thunder_Fang>	He turns his attention to the interrogation as well.  "Easy Spark Spinner, he can't answer if he's out of blood."
Dec 03 13:59:48 <DamienLunas>	"It 'aint like we had much choice! He said he was makin some kinda new landmass and that those there earthquakes were just a byproduct. He said if he wanted him to stop it and save our town we'd have to do something for him, so we went and heard about them old times when they used to give legendary pokemon like that gifts of virgin maidens."
Dec 03 14:00:11 <Arthur>	"Called it!"
Dec 03 14:00:13 <Klark>	"That...Sounds like bullshit."
Dec 03 14:00:43 <Hope>	"You are a complete and utter moron."
Dec 03 14:00:49 <DamienLunas>	"So we made the suggestion and he said if we brought him three to be his servants he'd obey that request!"
Dec 03 14:01:09 	Hope shakes her head.
Dec 03 14:01:14 <Arthur>	"...Servants aren't sacrifices."
Dec 03 14:01:29 <Hope>	"What does Regigigas need with servants? Can't he make just as many as he pleases, like Groudon?"
Dec 03 14:01:38 	Klark Nods.
Dec 03 14:01:39 <Arthur>	"But the least you could do was, you know, see if anyone WANTED to have the opportunity to help a legendary?"
Dec 03 14:01:41 <Thunder_Fang>	"...Okay retract that, feel free to munch on him."
Dec 03 14:01:50 <DamienLunas>	"I say, we didn't sacrifice nothin'! We just carted them up off north to his lair and left them there for him."
Dec 03 14:02:27 <Hope>	"They better be unharmed when we get there too." she glares down at the men. "We're going to see if we can't fix this another way."
Dec 03 14:02:28 <DamienLunas>	"Well see there weren't exactly volunteers linin' up when we asked!"
Dec 03 14:02:48 <DamienLunas>	"We had to take matters into our own hands if we didn't want our town gettin' torn apart by those earthquakes!"
Dec 03 14:03:10 <Hope>	"You chose poorly. And here we are, cleaning up your mess."
Dec 03 14:03:17 	Klark Shakes his head. "Never compromise.'
Dec 03 14:03:29 <Thunder_Fang>	"Just tell us where to go to resolve this before I change my mind about your townsfolk decide your fate."
Dec 03 14:03:29 <Hope>	"We'll save the town AND those girls."
Dec 03 14:03:41 <DamienLunas>	Manaphy speaks up, "It's true though... through the ancient rules, a gift of virgin maidens can oblige a legendary to fulfill your request."
Dec 03 14:03:47 <Thunder_Fang>	(about allowing* bluh)
Dec 03 14:04:05 <Hope>	"I imagine so, Manaphy, but that's still way out of line."
Dec 03 14:04:38 <DamienLunas>	"Right. It's not something you really do in these times..."
Dec 03 14:04:41 <Hope>	"I mean at least with Mira, she said yes."
Dec 03 14:04:54 	Hope thinks about it.
Dec 03 14:05:15 <Hope>	"Anyway, I think we should go investigate this."
Dec 03 14:05:15 <DamienLunas>	Manaphy blushes a bit at that implication
Dec 03 14:06:13 <DamienLunas>	"I say-ow quit that you little varmit!" He yells at the joltik biting him "It's to the north! There's a big temple in the desert some miles north of here!"
Dec 03 14:06:44 <Hope>	"Right, thanks."
Dec 03 14:07:09 <Thunder_Fang>	"Good.  Okay, you can stop now, Spark Spinner." he beckons her over.  "Let's get moving, then?"
Dec 03 14:07:42 <Klark>	(Is it assumed we healed our mans?)
Dec 03 14:08:11 <DamienLunas>	(There's a center here, yeah)
Dec 03 14:08:31 	DiceMaid-9001 (DiceMaid-9@sux-EADD5C74) has joined #TurfWars
Dec 03 14:08:42 	Hope calls out Nix, her Dragonite, then.
Dec 03 14:08:58 	Hope climbs aboard, offering Manaphy a spot too.
Dec 03 14:09:26 <Hope>	"I honestly hope we don't have to fight, it may be difficult without Saru, Mira and Six here..."
Dec 03 14:09:39 <Hope>	"But if it comes down to that..."
Dec 03 14:10:00 <Klark>	"We'll be alright."
Dec 03 14:10:03 <Arthur>	"If it comes down to that, we win anyway. Isn't hard, right?"
Dec 03 14:10:30 	Thunder_Fang heads over to his pack and speaks with them a bit, the hydreigon, flygon and eelektross start flying off, carrying some of the smaller guys, while Fang elects to move on foot.
Dec 03 14:10:31 <DamienLunas>	"It's fine, Hope, just return me to the contract ball."
Dec 03 14:10:34 <Klark>	"Haven't lost yet. No time to start now."
Dec 03 14:10:42 	Hope nods, returning Manaphy.
Dec 03 14:11:01 <Hope>	"Don't get too overconfident."
Dec 03 14:11:34 <Hope>	"Hey!" she calls out to Fang. "You're not riding?"
Dec 03 14:11:49 <DamienLunas>	(also mira is here, just being en pee seed)
Dec 03 14:11:59 <Hope>	(Oh okay)
Dec 03 14:13:00 <Thunder_Fang>	"No need for now unless we hit a chasm or something," Annnd he's off oh my he's fast.
Dec 03 14:13:12 	Hope blinks but gets Nix into the air.

Dec 03 14:13:49 <DamienLunas>	(orly)
Dec 03 14:13:58 <Thunder_Fang>	(well, he's still fast :B)
Dec 03 14:14:04 <Hope>	(Yeah)
Dec 03 14:14:14 	Hope wonders just how the hell a man can run as fast as a dragonite flies.
Dec 03 14:14:31 <Hope>	"Some guy..." she mutters to Nix absently.
Dec 03 14:15:25 <DamienLunas>	after a few miles of traveling, the sun starts to set
Dec 03 14:16:38 <DamienLunas>	but you can still make out a marble structure in the distance
Dec 03 14:17:03 <DamienLunas>	it's definitely recognizable as a temple
Dec 03 14:18:27 <Hope>	<Looks like we're here.> she remarks to everyone in aura.
Dec 03 14:18:35 <DamienLunas>	you get close, and notice three sets of markings on the face of the temple past the white pillars polished to a mirror sheen
Dec 03 14:19:18 <DamienLunas>	each 7 dots, one in an H formation, one in a circle, and one in a semi-cross
Dec 03 14:19:34 <Klark>	"Huh..."
Dec 03 14:19:42 <Hope>	(Do we recognize Regirock's?)
Dec 03 14:19:48 <DamienLunas>	(yes)
Dec 03 14:20:02 	Thunder_Fang just scratches his head as he looks at them. "Hm."
Dec 03 14:20:03 	Hope nods to herself, remembering Groudon's creations.
Dec 03 14:20:15 <DamienLunas>	Where you might expect to be a door, there is a large stone slab with 3 colored gems on it, Red, Blue and Gray
Dec 03 14:20:32 	Hope lands Nix nearby, getting off.
Dec 03 14:22:01 	Hope hmms, looking at it.
Dec 03 14:22:09 	Hope then tries knocking on the slab. :B
Dec 03 14:22:12 <Thunder_Fang>	"Does...this make sense to you at all?"
Dec 03 14:22:45 <Arthur>	"Kinda?
Dec 03 14:22:52 <Hope>	"I recognize one of the patterns on the pillars... Groudon made some pokemon with that pattern on their face when we fought him. I guess the other patterns belong to the other Regis."
Dec 03 14:23:05 <DamienLunas>	nothing happens when you knock on the slab, though you can tell that there's pretty much no give to it. It must be an incredibly thick piece of stone.
Dec 03 14:24:08 <Hope>	"The gems might have something to do with Regigigas himself, I dunno."

Dec 03 14:25:10 <DamienLunas>	you try, but it seems to be pushing back with equal force.
Dec 03 14:25:19 	Thunder_Fang stares at the gems, and tries to remove the red one.
Dec 03 14:25:27 <DamienLunas>	The gems won't budge
Dec 03 14:25:34 <Klark>	"Huh. Weird. Can't move the rock at all."
Dec 03 14:25:35 <Hope>	"Hello?" she calls out.
Dec 03 14:25:46 <Arthur>	"Do we really have to get three of THESE things too or something."

Dec 03 14:26:18 <Thunder_Fang>	"Keep in mind those idiots somehow contacted the creature."
Dec 03 14:26:20 <DamienLunas>	There seem to be slight red blue and gray auras around the sets of markings on the face of the temple.
Dec 03 14:26:23 	Klark MindPings for pokemon.
Dec 03 14:26:26 <DamienLunas>	<That's true, master. They were able to get in.>
Dec 03 14:26:29 <DamienLunas>	No pokemon though
Dec 03 14:26:43 <Hope>	"Maybe this isn't the entrance."
Dec 03 14:26:50 <Arthur>	"Maybe but..."
Dec 03 14:26:50 <Hope>	"The gems are giving off aura though."
Dec 03 14:26:55 <DamienLunas>	not the gems.

Dec 03 14:28:54 <Arthur>	"Right, everyone hit the gems. Or everyone's pokemon. At the same time, mind."
Dec 03 14:29:05 <DamienLunas>	The markings.

Dec 03 14:37:06 <DamienLunas>	the gems on its front flicker as it slowly begins to move, shaking off some of the green moss that has coated it.
Dec 03 14:37:43 <DamienLunas>	[Query: Who disturbs my temple?]
Dec 03 14:38:19 <DamienLunas>	an odd mechanical sounding voice emanates from it
Dec 03 14:39:17 <Hope>	"We're the Ribbonwood Immortals. Well, most of us. We came because the girls you've been gifted were brought here against their will. We'd like them back, if another deal could be arranged to stop the earthquakes."
Dec 03 14:40:47 <DamienLunas>	[Objection: The fact that they were brought here against their will does not change the fact that they were a gift. I have brought no harm to them, and am content to allow them to serve as our vassals peacefully.]
Dec 03 14:41:04 <Arthur>	"Well are they fine with it?"
Dec 03 14:41:12 <Hope>	"I don't think he cares, Arthur."
Dec 03 14:41:30 <Arthur>	"That's jumping to conclusions. Maybe at least he'll answer."
Dec 03 14:42:25 <DamienLunas>	[Offended Answer: To serve as a vassal to us is an honor. They are provided beautiful chambers in a wonderful temple, and all the food they can eat in exchange for doing very little on their own part.]
Dec 03 14:43:15 <Arthur>	"...Can we see?"
Dec 03 14:43:48 <DamienLunas>	[Query: Do you wish to volunteer?]
Dec 03 14:43:54 <Arthur>	"Depends."
Dec 03 14:44:10 <Arthur>	"I mean if we go back and tell the people how nice it is, you might get more."
Dec 03 14:44:18 <Arthur>	"But we'd have to SEE that first."
Dec 03 14:44:34 <Hope>	"Honestly, Arthur, I can't see you here for the rest of your life. That's what he was asking, I think."
Dec 03 14:44:37 <DamienLunas>	[Elaboration: That was sarcasm. In the future I shall prefix such statements so as to not confuse you.]
Dec 03 14:44:50 <Hope>	"Oh."
Dec 03 14:45:07 <Hope>	"Well, surely something else could be worked out..."
Dec 03 14:45:55 <Thunder_Fang>	"The fact they had to drag people here against their will speaks for the conditions, I warrent."
Dec 03 14:46:43 <DamienLunas>	[Suggestion: Though typically maidens are used, there may indeed be a male vassal to be submitted. If that man would happen to be a virgin, we could resolve this conflict immediately.]
Dec 03 14:47:00 <Arthur>	"Which?"
Dec 03 14:47:20 	Hope gives Arthur a look.

Dec 03 14:51:12 <Kaingaskhan>	"We're trying to AVOID keeping people locked away here for the rest of their lives. Even if it's an honor, it should at least be a position entered willingly..." she thinks a moment.

Dec 03 14:51:57 	Hope has quit (Ping timeout)
Dec 03 14:52:02 *	Kaingaskhan is now known as Hope
Dec 03 14:53:13 <Hope>	"You're making a new landmass, aren't you? Doesn't that come up through the ocean? Something that you're doing in the King of the Sea's domain causing trouble in the King of the Land's domain isn't right, is it?"
Dec 03 14:54:35 <DamienLunas>	[Answer: Now that the King of the Land has returned, it is part of my duty to help form new landmasses.]
Dec 03 14:54:56 <Hope>	"At the expense of threatening the people that live in his domain?"
Dec 03 14:55:48 <DamienLunas>	[Condescending Remark: Do you feel remorse for driving a nest of beedril away from where you intend to build a home?]
Dec 03 14:56:13 <Hope>	"I happen to have a hive of Vespiquen where our home is, thank you."
Dec 03 14:56:39 <DamienLunas>	[Sarcastic Response: Good for you.]
Dec 03 14:57:16 <Hope>	"This isn't really going anywhere, is it. It's either what you want or nothing..."
Dec 03 14:58:42 <DamienLunas>	[Objection: It is not my fault that you are not knowledgeable in the old ways. Your people have grown away from their position of reverence towards us, and as such many of our rituals and workings are lost to your culture.]
Dec 03 15:00:19 <Thunder_Fang>	"So instead you replace it with fear.  Hm."
Dec 03 15:00:25 <Hope>	"The legendary pokemon are worthy of respect for what they do for our planet, but not all of them are necessarily in the right either."
Dec 03 15:02:23 <DamienLunas>	[Offended objection: It was not I who asked for this tribute of maidens. I am merely accepting their offer. It was their choice to elect this bargain over other possible solutions.]
Dec 03 15:02:53 <Arthur>	"Solutions like?"
Dec 03 15:02:54 <Hope>	"And we came here to fix their mistake! Other people shouldn't have to pay for the idiocy of someone else!"
Dec 03 15:03:06 <Thunder_Fang>	He looks to the Immortals.  "Would anyone even mourn this creature?  I deal with criminals, not...this."
Dec 03 15:04:10 <DamienLunas>	[Shocked query: You do not honestly intend to murder the Titan of Strength, do you?]
Dec 03 15:04:18 	Hope looks at Fang. "I don't believe we need to kill him if we challenge him. I'm sure he's vital to part of the function of this world. I just don't like his attitude."
Dec 03 15:04:56 	Hope looks at Regigigas. "How about it, then? Surely there's something in the old ways about a challenge by combat."
Dec 03 15:05:39 <Arthur>	"Well he still hasn't said what other solutions there are."
Dec 03 15:05:57 <DamienLunas>	[Agreement: A challenge by combat could indeed resolve this situation. Should you best me, I would be more than happy to accept my defeat and oblige by your demands.]
Dec 03 15:06:11 <Thunder_Fang>	He shrugs.  "I simply posed a question."
Dec 03 15:06:14 <Hope>	"Even if there are others, Arthur, he's already said that he's not willing to relinquish the girls without a fight."
Dec 03 15:07:24 <Hope>	"So, what does everyone think?"
Dec 03 15:07:31 	Hope looks between Arthur, Fang, Mira, and Klark.
Dec 03 15:07:33 <DamienLunas>	[Hesitant Estimation: Though a trial by combat is the most simple solution, I would advise against it, as your chances of defeating me are a mere 3%.]
Dec 03 15:07:53 <Arthur>	"I think I'd like to at least hear what else there is to do about this."
Dec 03 15:07:59 <Hope>	"Well, do you think there's a better solution?"
Dec 03 15:08:02 <Arthur>	"It's the most SIMPLE, of how many?"
Dec 03 15:08:15 	Thunder_Fang draws his blades and snarles. "Little Fang, come here. Let's get this over with."
Dec 03 15:09:13 <DamienLunas>	[Weary Suggestion: "If you were willing to give tribute of equal value in exchange, we COULD barter for their release. However, I am unsure what you could offer me of value.]
Dec 03 15:10:15 <Hope>	"Given the value a legendary pokemon probably places on the lives of vassals, neither do I, honestly. We already brought the King of Land back to his senses, but I guess that doesn't count for anything."
Dec 03 15:10:20 <Arthur>	"Yeah, I've got nothing."
Dec 03 15:11:13 <Thunder_Fang>	"I am notserving you."
Dec 03 15:11:13 <Hope>	"Three percent, huh? We never did follow the odds."
Dec 03 15:12:29 <DamienLunas>	[Statement: Should you choose trial by combat, I shall spare your lives upon your loss out of respect, however I must ask that you leave my temple and cease all further negotiations.]
Dec 03 15:13:35 	Hope frowns. "Hm."
Dec 03 15:13:54 <Hope>	(This is something the entire party should have a say in, honestly, but we're missing a bunch)
Dec 03 15:14:07 <Arthur>	(I still think there's like)
Dec 03 15:14:11 <Arthur>	(Some sort of hidden option here)
Dec 03 15:14:16 <Arthur>	(that we haven't realized)
Dec 03 15:14:28 <DamienLunas>	(not without mira here anyway :3c)
Dec 03 15:15:28 <Thunder_Fang>	"Far as I can tell the only options we got are combat or - well, no the other one is no option.  I mean what else could he want, a beauty contest?"
Dec 03 15:15:55 <Arthur>	"Vassals that sincerely want to be here, maybe."
Dec 03 15:16:02 <Arthur>	"A complete exchange."
Dec 03 15:16:08 <Hope>	"And where could we find those."
Dec 03 15:16:32 <Hope>	"I don't think we have anything of value to offer, I don't see a good option except combat."
Dec 03 15:16:45 <Arthur>	"Well, when it's not some bloated toad man asking, maybe the townspeople have some idea."
Dec 03 15:17:27 <Arthur>	"I dunno, a copy of those ancient laws would be nice to look through for a loophole or something."
Dec 03 15:17:41 <Hope>	"Let's ask Manaphy's opinion."
Dec 03 15:17:53 <Hope>	"He's been in his ball, but he's probably heard the entire conversation."
Dec 03 15:17:56 	Hope lets out the Prince.
Dec 03 15:18:41 <DamienLunas>	Manaphy thinks, "Well... I don't think it'd be too hard for us to win. I mean we DID defeat the beast of death. This guy should be a pushover compared to him."
Dec 03 15:19:36 <Arthur>	"Oh he's definitely skewing the odds, it's just... Feels like if what he's doing is right, it should be worked WITH and not AGAINST. And if we beat him up and take the girls back, wouldn't the earthquakes just get worse?"
Dec 03 15:19:36 <Hope>	"I'm not too worried about us losing, only that we could solve this without getting violent." She's thoughtful.
Dec 03 15:20:04 <Hope>	"Well, obviously that'd be part of the demands, Arthur."
Dec 03 15:20:29 <Thunder_Fang>	"He ain't exactly making much of a sales pitch with refusing to even let us see them."
Dec 03 15:20:35 <DamienLunas>	[Correction: I would be willing to cease production of this new landmass and spare the lives of those in that villaige threatened by it.]
Dec 03 15:21:00 <Arthur>	"Well, were you making it for a purpose, or just to make it?"
Dec 03 15:21:30 <DamienLunas>	[Answer: Yes.]
Dec 03 15:22:01 <Hope>	"I say we can do this."
Dec 03 15:22:51 <Hope>	(Klark?)
Dec 03 15:24:02 <Klark>	(Sorry went on a quest for food. I am currrently eating and I have to leave for work in an hour and a half.)

Dec 03 15:24:15 <DamienLunas>	(; ;)
Dec 03 15:24:24 <Arthur>	(I don't think we could've finished a fight even if it had started WITH the session, to be honest)
Dec 03 15:24:46 <Arthur>	(considering it's probably a lot like groudon)
Dec 03 15:24:51 <Thunder_Fang>	"Far as the village, this whole mess was caused by that damn sheriff.  Free the girls, update them on the status of things, let them actually work something out."
Dec 03 15:25:57 <Klark>	"Well...We could relocate the town? Ribbonwood needs more people to help build it up. Depending on how long the newlandmass takes we could come back and help them rebuild their homes?"
Dec 03 15:26:07 <Hope>	"Let's save that as a last resort."
Dec 03 15:26:20 <Arthur>	"It's a good idea, though. They're in a desert."
Dec 03 15:27:13 <Hope>	"There's still the lives of two women we need to be worried about, Klark."
Dec 03 15:28:10 <Hope>	"If we lose, Regigigas's terms didn't say we couldn't help them move out."
Dec 03 15:28:20 <DamienLunas>	[Concession: We could possibly negotiate for the release of these women in exchange for the continuation fo my constructioin. I must admit though, I believed your primary objective to be saving the town.]
Dec 03 15:29:02 <Hope>	"The town itself doesn't matter unless the people just aren't willing to leave. We're worried about the lives involved."
Dec 03 15:29:56 <Thunder_Fang>	"I think the residents of the town would have relocated themselves if that was an option they entertained."
Dec 03 15:30:09 	Hope scratches her chin. "I guess it's something we could head back and ask them about."
Dec 03 15:30:48 <Arthur>	"Like I said, part of the problem may have been the person that tried to work it out in the first place. Plus, if they had a book on this stuff, that'd help to have anyway."
Dec 03 15:31:15 <Hope>	"We're not exactly in a hurry, as long as another earthquake doesn't hit tomorrow or something."
Dec 03 15:31:36 <Hope>	"And I'd like to think we could accomplish something without necessarily strongarming it."
Dec 03 15:32:00 <Hope>	"But we'll see."
Dec 03 15:32:22 <DamienLunas>	(stupid mira not being here ; ;)
Dec 03 15:32:31 <Arthur>	(you could just)
Dec 03 15:32:33 <Thunder_Fang>	He seems frustrated, but sheaths his blades.  "Fine, we'll do this your way.  You're the experts on these matters anyway."
Dec 03 15:32:33 	Hope looks up at Regigigas. "We'll need to explore our options, can we keep negotiations open until then?"
Dec 03 15:32:35 <Arthur>	(do that thing without her)
Dec 03 15:32:50 <DamienLunas>	(except it's sort of her decision >:I)
Dec 03 15:32:57 <Arthur>	(oh god)
Dec 03 15:33:04 <Hope>	(You're wanting her to give herself to the gigas as a vassal?)
Dec 03 15:33:08 <Arthur>	(MANAPHY FOR THREE MONTHS REGIGIGAS FOR THREE MONTHS WHO NEXT)
Dec 03 15:34:29 <Arthur>	(But part of it is that it feels like we didn't look into the town enough, that there were some details there that could've been important)
Dec 03 15:34:32 	Hope looks at Fang. "I know these people need saving. Don't worry."
Dec 03 15:34:40 <DamienLunas>	(not really)
Dec 03 15:34:52 <DamienLunas>	(I just didn't expect klark to take such a long break and then have to leave so soon)
Dec 03 15:35:03 <Klark>	(I'm sorry ;_;)
Dec 03 15:35:05 <Arthur>	(Not really to what)
Dec 03 15:35:15 <Klark>	(But we had no ffood)
Dec 03 15:35:19 <DamienLunas>	(Not really to you didn't look into the town)
Dec 03 15:35:20 <Thunder_Fang>	(I dunno this seems pretty straight forward to me.)
Dec 03 15:35:36 <Hope>	(It is)
Dec 03 15:35:45 <Hope>	(Combat's probably the simplest solution)
Dec 03 15:35:48 <Arthur>	(That's the thing yeah, since it's ALWAYS so straightforward i thought that he'd make things harder/more puzzly)
Dec 03 15:35:51 <Hope>	(But it also takes a while)
Dec 03 15:36:21 <Hope>	(And it doesn't hurt to get creative once in a while)
Dec 03 15:36:30 <Arthur>	(And there were people with names in the town so I thought he had like, NPCs ready)
Dec 03 15:36:32 <Hope>	(I mean even if the people aren't willing to leave the town, combat is still an option)
Dec 03 15:36:39 <DamienLunas>	(every time I try puzzles on you guys it takes like hours :<)
Dec 03 15:36:42 <Thunder_Fang>	(would seem sorta weird to have one hidden option that we had to guess at either way.)
Dec 03 15:37:00 <Hope>	(And we'll be able to start fresh with it next session)
Dec 03 15:37:17 <Thunder_Fang>	(No, that's cause Fang didn't just stroll into town, he's been there a while, but we didn't really get a chance for me to really make that relivent.)
Dec 03 15:37:32 <Arthur>	(Yeah, if going back and seeing what can be done there doesn't work, we can at least do the combat from the get-go next week.)
Dec 03 15:37:56 <DamienLunas>	(I guess...)
Dec 03 15:38:24 <Hope>	(Not having people here contributed to this too)
Dec 03 15:38:28 <Hope>	(So don't worry)
Dec 03 15:39:12 <Hope>	(Maybe we can start a little earlier next time?)
Dec 03 15:39:25 <Hope>	(Since Beard seems to have needed to work every saturday for a while)

Dec 03 15:42:39 <Hope>	"Very well, that's fair enough."
Dec 03 15:45:04 <Hope>	"Clock's ticking." she turns to everyone.
Dec 03 15:45:14 <Arthur>	"Here we go..."

Dec 03 15:47:03 	Hope jogs back up the stairs.
Dec 03 15:47:12 <DamienLunas>	The door closes behind all of you
Dec 03 15:48:18 <Hope>	"Alright, let's get back to town."
Dec 03 15:49:12 <DamienLunas>	you get on back to town. By the time you reach it, the sun has gone down, leaving the town lit by starlight.
Dec 03 15:49:32 <Thunder_Fang>	"I'm not used to compromise being an option," he says to Hope.
Dec 03 15:49:55 <Thunder_Fang>	"But we'll see how this works."
Dec 03 15:49:57 <Hope>	"It's not usually with us, either. But..."
Dec 03 15:49:58 <Arthur>	"Honestly, I'm surprised."
Dec 03 15:50:14 <Arthur>	"BUT it's a new era and all that, and we can't get too fixed in the one mindset."
Dec 03 15:50:37 <Hope>	"We've fought gang after gang, legendary after legendary, and even saved the world."
Dec 03 15:50:52 <Hope>	"I guess it just gets a bit... tiring, maybe?"
Dec 03 15:51:57 <DamienLunas>	manaphy nods in agreement, "It's been pretty tumultuous."
Dec 03 15:52:06 <Thunder_Fang>	He just shrugs.  He doesn't seem to understand that sentiment.
Dec 03 15:52:23 <Hope>	"Mm, now that we have some time, though, I guess we can explain in full why we were looking for you."
Dec 03 15:53:08 <Thunder_Fang>	"You mentioned my father," he nods.
Dec 03 15:54:02 <Hope>	"Even though we defeated the Beast of Death, who caused the cataclysm... there's still one more huge threat to this world. A creature slumbering for all time, as long as another legendary named Darkrai keeps it that way. Its name now is Xenosect, a combination of a deadly genocidal pokemon from the past and modern technology coming together in a package that can literally destroy the world."
Dec 03 15:54:43 <Hope>	"To fight it, to finally destroy it so Darkrai can awake and nothing's left to threaten the world, one of the things we're trying to do is bring Ribbon..." she nods to the baby Ho-Oh. "To her full stature."
Dec 03 15:55:15 <Hope>	"And to do that, she's going to need to link to Raikou, Entei, and Suicune."
Dec 03 15:55:20 <Hope>	"One group of them, anyway."
Dec 03 15:55:23 	Thunder_Fang looks to the chunky bird. "That...one?"
Dec 03 15:55:28 	Hope nods.
Dec 03 15:55:52 <Hope>	"Mira caught a suicune out on the ocean. A man in Celadon has an Entei that's infused with the grass element."
Dec 03 15:56:11 <Hope>	"So... we just need to ask you and your Raikou for your permission."
Dec 03 15:56:24 <Hope>	"Or... is he 'yours'? I heard you call him 'father'."
Dec 03 15:56:35 	Hope looks over at the creature, curiously.
Dec 03 15:56:38 *	TF2Kit is now known as Kit
Dec 03 15:58:01 <Thunder_Fang>	He looks confused for a second. "I'm not sure how to answer that.  My pack is not 'mine' in the sense of ownership, they are my family."
Dec 03 15:58:24 	Arthur counts. "Is the term really a 'pack', though? I thought it was by species."
Dec 03 15:58:24 <Hope>	"No pokeballs? And you lived with them before we defeated the Beast?" she seems intrigued.
Dec 03 15:58:49 <Hope>	"Just like Freed, then... pokemon didn't hate you."
Dec 03 15:59:47 <Thunder_Fang>	"Volt, come over here," he calls the Hydreigon to his side.  "No, they do not.  Never have.  I didn't even realize the issue until Sister Volt here learned to...speak, much like you do, Hope."
Dec 03 16:00:14 <Hope>	<All of the Immortals can speak this way.> she remarks. "A man in Ribbonwood unlocked the power of Aura in us."
Dec 03 16:00:23 <Thunder_Fang>	"It became clear that their fears were irrational, and I heard the devices could cure it, so I convinced them to enter one, and then immediately broke the devices."
Dec 03 16:00:39 	Hope nods.
Dec 03 16:00:56 <Hope>	"The pokeballs purified the seed of hatred out of the pokemon."
Dec 03 16:01:01 <Thunder_Fang>	And he says to Arthur, "I don't see why it matters what we're called.  We're a family."
Dec 03 16:01:21 <Thunder_Fang>	"Either way this is a question you should ask my Father, not I."
Dec 03 16:01:46 <Hope>	"Now that the Beast of Death has been returned to who they were, wild pokemon all over should lose their fear and hatred of people."
Dec 03 16:02:14 	Hope nods, turning to the Raikou. "Forgive my ignorance and assumptions then."
Dec 03 16:02:22 <DamienLunas>	The raikou paces, circling around the ho-oh and looking it over.
Dec 03 16:02:31 <DamienLunas>	"A bit pudgy."
Dec 03 16:02:43 <Hope>	:< "She's a healthy girl."
Dec 03 16:02:44 <DamienLunas>	"Skwak!" >:<
Dec 03 16:03:27 <DamienLunas>	"But I would be perfectly willing to assist in the ritual. If it is what I can do to help, then I must do it."
Dec 03 16:03:36 	Hope nods. "Thank you."
Dec 03 16:03:59 <Thunder_Fang>	He shrugs.  "It's...understandable," he removes his cloak, revealing a Raikou tail.  "I'm not exactly human anymore, my ways are different."
Dec 03 16:04:09 	Hope marvels at that.
Dec 03 16:04:14 <Hope>	"Again, just like Freed..."
Dec 03 16:04:33 <Hope>	"Freed was someone we knew who had a pair of Butterfree wings. We assumed they were some kind of invention of his, but..."
Dec 03 16:04:42 <Hope>	"They grew out of his back."
Dec 03 16:05:18 <Hope>	"I think that's incredible, honestly."
Dec 03 16:05:39 <Hope>	"The way you moved, I didn't figure you were ordinary. You kept up to Nix like it was nothing."
Dec 03 16:06:26 <Hope>	"...sorry, I'm staring. That must be uncomfortable."
Dec 03 16:06:50 <Hope>	She averts her eyes from his tail, to his face, thinking.
Dec 03 16:07:16 <Hope>	"That snarl of yours, too... Mm. Well, don't think we'll treat you any less for it."
Dec 03 16:07:24 <Thunder_Fang>	The tail waves around a bit.  "Possibly similar origins, I don't know the term for it.  Father did it to save my life."
Dec 03 16:08:30 	Hope nods.
Dec 03 16:08:34 <Thunder_Fang>	He puts the cloak back on.  "It's more scaring others than the staring that concerns me.  Hard to keep a low profile when you got a tail."
Dec 03 16:08:41 <Hope>	(Hope talks too much: The game)
Dec 03 16:08:52 <Hope>	"Yeah, I guess..."
Dec 03 16:09:39 <DamienLunas>	(Arthur doesn't have a reaction at all?)
Dec 03 16:09:54 <Arthur>	(bluh bluh beard isn't the only busy one)
Dec 03 16:10:00 <Arthur>	(I've been doing laundry and packing)
Dec 03 16:11:56 <Thunder_Fang>	"As for this Xenosect creature, I'll assist with dealing with that creature as well, if you'll permit it.  Something tells me Willow had that in mind anyway.  I...have to ask though, isn't this dangerous for you to be involved with given your...with child?"
Dec 03 16:12:15 <Arthur>	"If anyone gets hit, it's over anyway."
Dec 03 16:12:21 <Arthur>	"There's no effective difference."
Dec 03 16:13:24 <Hope>	"Right, one detail about that..."
Dec 03 16:13:47 <Thunder_Fang>	He frowns, not exactly happy with this answer.
Dec 03 16:13:52 <Hope>	"Do you know about Legendary Auras? Xenosect's Divinity Aura was interalized into a laser cannon... apparently it has the ability to completely destroy anything."
Dec 03 16:14:00 <Hope>	"I'm not even sure Protect would stop it."
Dec 03 16:14:16 <Hope>	"We'll have to figure out a way to avoid being hit."
Dec 03 16:14:22 <Hope>	"Or stop it from firing."
Dec 03 16:14:57 <Hope>	"We know it's incredibly weak against fire, and that might be able to melt its cannon or break its armor so we can try to whittle at the aura proper."
Dec 03 16:15:41 <Hope>	"Or once, it was traumatized in the far past by Kyurem's cold. We plan on contracting him -" she holds up Manaphy's contract ball- "To try and play on that weakness, that may give us a chance."
Dec 03 16:16:04 <Hope>	"But as far as the fire part... That's one reason we need Ribbon."
Dec 03 16:17:21 <Thunder_Fang>	"I know of Father's auras, but I haven't encountered too many other legendary creatures in my travels other than Zapdos. Until now, at least.  What does this ritual include, anyway?"
Dec 03 16:17:25 <Hope>	"Mm, you'll probably need a lot of filling in..."
Dec 03 16:17:30 <Hope>	"I'm not sure, actually."
Dec 03 16:17:55 <Hope>	"Either it's something they know..." she looks to the Raikou. "Or we'll receive instructions about later."
Dec 03 16:20:01 <DamienLunas>	the raikou nods, "We legendary pokemon are born ingrained with the knowledge of our rituals and our ways."
Dec 03 16:20:30 	Hope nods. "I thought so."
Dec 03 16:20:37 <DamienLunas>	"We will need the three beasts together along with the bird, and allow her to link to our power."
Dec 03 16:20:57 <Hope>	"Guess we WILL be traveling together a bit, then." she grins.
Dec 03 16:21:19 <Thunder_Fang>	"My affairs involved bringing down criminal enterprises and gangs throughout the region, and to leave Ribbonwood be.  What came of that and the dealings of the Beast, I know not much more than the common man.  But that can wait till later, I presume."
Dec 03 16:23:07 <Hope>	"Well, we mostly just beat the crap out of a bunch of gangs, with the considerable help of the miracle berries, then united the city and were approached about taking on the Beast of Death."
Dec 03 16:23:16 <Hope>	"There's more to it than that, but yeah, we can get into that later."
Dec 03 16:24:58 <Hope>	"It's getting pretty late, I think we should talk to everyone tomorrow, probably."
Dec 03 16:25:09 <Hope>	"You know of a good place to lodge up around here?"
Dec 03 16:25:26 <DamienLunas>	Before you find somewhere to sleep, you should still have time to read that book they were using. Roll an int check to parse for useful information.
Dec 03 16:25:48 <Thunder_Fang>	He nods. "Right.  The town's safety is a priority."
Dec 03 16:25:59 <Thunder_Fang>	1d20-2 ololol INT, Wild Child/MA
Dec 03 16:26:01 <DiceMaid-9001>	Thunder_Fang, ololol INT, Wild Child/MA: 16 [1d20=18]

Dec 03 16:26:33 <DiceMaid-9001>	Arthur, you idiot: 20 [1d20=12]
Dec 03 16:26:40 <Thunder_Fang>	(I took the good roll :B)
Dec 03 16:28:00 <Thunder_Fang>	"Typically I wouldn't stay in town but...deserts don't agree with me very well.  There's an inn in town, I believe."
Dec 03 16:28:13 <DamienLunas>	(Hope? You're the nerd)
Dec 03 16:28:22 <Hope>	(Hrm?)
Dec 03 16:28:24 <Hope>	(Oh right)
Dec 03 16:28:32 <Hope>	1d20+2 Int
Dec 03 16:28:32 <DiceMaid-9001>	Hope, Int: 5 [1d20=3]
Dec 03 16:28:47 <Hope>	(I'm a breeeeeeeeeeder)
Dec 03 16:28:56 <DamienLunas>	Hope would be outsmarted by the wild child if it weren't for the fact that he is in fact unable to read.
Dec 03 16:28:57 <Klark>	1d20+10 I am smrt

Dec 03 16:29:55 <Thunder_Fang>	(amazing)
Dec 03 16:30:02 <Klark>	(OH btw I have no work next Sat =D)
Dec 03 16:30:04 <Thunder_Fang>	(I'M SORRY THE ILLEGIBLE GUY TOO THE GOOD ROLL.)
Dec 03 16:30:07 <DamienLunas>	(YAY)
Dec 03 16:30:12 <DamienLunas>	(illiterate.)
Dec 03 16:30:17 <DamienLunas>	anyway
Dec 03 16:30:27 <DamienLunas>	arthur manages to find the section that apparently inspired them to do what they did
Dec 03 16:30:41 <DamienLunas>	apparently regigigas can indeed be offered 3 vassals. These vassals are not for himself however.
Dec 03 16:30:57 	Klark has quit (Quit: Klark)
Dec 03 16:31:13 <Thunder_Fang>	(I am having WORD issues today. :B)
Dec 03 16:31:17 <DamienLunas>	They are instead to be bequeathed upon the Sentinels of Frost, Metal, and Stone
Dec 03 16:32:18 <DamienLunas>	However, there is a way to become a vassal of Regigigas himself.
Dec 03 16:33:19 <DamienLunas>	To do so, you must merely prove that you have strength worthy of serving him by defeating the Sentinels in combat.
Dec 03 16:33:44 <DamienLunas>	Furthermore
Dec 03 16:34:01 <DamienLunas>	you find that the titan of strength can summon the sentinels at will, and draw power from them.
Dec 03 16:34:46 <DamienLunas>	Though the Titan takes time to achieve his full battle power, he may use the abilities of his sentinels to protect himself until he reaches his full potential.
Dec 03 16:35:14 <Hope>	(Does it say what being a vassal of Regigigas entails?)
Dec 03 16:35:35 <DamienLunas>	Should he attain his full power, he is nearly unstoppable combined with the other 3 sentinels, as all 4 of them were created almost expressely for the purpose of battle.
Dec 03 16:35:41 <DamienLunas>	1d100
Dec 03 16:35:42 <DiceMaid-9001>	DamienLunas, 1d100: 31 [1d100=31]
Dec 03 16:36:53 <DamienLunas>	It mentions that they may be asked to be its herald, warning those who may be in danger of it.
Dec 03 16:37:58 <DamienLunas>	It also mentions that since the Titan created his sentinels artificially, they serve no greater purpose in the world other than to fight and to protect. Their combat capabilities are incredible, but should they be destroyed, they will not return to life.
Dec 03 16:40:29 <Hope>	(Hmmm)
Dec 03 16:40:58 	Thunder_Fang listens as these things are read allowed. "Hm. That would explain why a bunch of thugs would rather push the issue onto someone else."
Dec 03 16:41:22 <Hope>	"We faced a similar situation when we fought Groudon, the King of the Land."
Dec 03 16:41:37 <Hope>	"He would form Regirocks out of the cave floor and use them to protect himself and heal his wounds."
Dec 03 16:41:45 <DamienLunas>	But given that they're using the word sentinel
Dec 03 16:41:53 <Hope>	"This sounds like it'd be a bit more severe, however."
Dec 03 16:41:53 <DamienLunas>	this means he will be summoning the prime regis.
Dec 03 16:43:57 <Hope>	"Either way, see? I knew barging in guns blazing was a bad idea."
Dec 03 16:44:15 <Hope>	"If we decide to fight, we need to be ready. Otherwise..."
Dec 03 16:44:59 <DamienLunas>	(also I'm sure you can infer and probably confirm with mira's knowledge that it meant regigigas could actually make use of their legendary auras)
Dec 03 16:45:06 <Thunder_Fang>	He nods.  "Well, this is outside my expertice, yes."
Dec 03 16:46:05 <Hope>	"You might be at a bit of a disadvantage without a Level X pokemon though, Fang..."
Dec 03 16:46:09 <DamienLunas>	"But if there is that which  you can do to help, then you must do it my son."
Dec 03 16:46:35 <Thunder_Fang>	He shakes his head and scratches the Luxray near him's head.  "You're mistaken.  Brother Little Fang has been blessed with that power."
Dec 03 16:46:46 <Hope>	"...Oh!"
Dec 03 16:46:50 <Hope>	"Well, in that case..."
Dec 03 16:47:16 <Hope>	"If we fight, we should probably take out the sentinels as fast as we can."
Dec 03 16:47:21 <Thunder_Fang>	"I know, Father, just admitting my ignorance of the powers of these creatures is far different from the dealings of criminal lords."
Dec 03 16:47:36 <Hope>	"It'll give him time to power up, but letting them stay up is probably a bad idea."
Dec 03 16:47:39 <Arthur>	"If we fight. We still haven't asked, or looked..."
Dec 03 16:47:45 <Hope>	"Right."
Dec 03 16:47:54 <Hope>	"But we can't just expect everything will work out either."
Dec 03 16:48:05 <Hope>	"We need to be ready."
Dec 03 16:49:38 <DamienLunas>	"I shall explain the workings of them to you in the morning, my son."
Dec 03 16:49:50 <DamienLunas>	"For now we should rest."
Dec 03 16:50:09 <Thunder_Fang>	He nods. "Right.  An inn..."
Dec 03 16:50:20 <DamienLunas>	Manaphy: "Maybe we should think about calling the Nightmare King in the morning too."
Dec 03 16:51:21 <Arthur>	"For?"
Dec 03 16:51:33 <Arthur>	"I don't really want to bug him, considering he's actually been busy."
Dec 03 16:52:33 <DamienLunas>	"That's true... but if you have any more questions, he might be able to help. I'll try to answer what I can though."
Dec 03 16:53:44 <Hope>	"Yeah, he might be able to help."
Dec 03 16:53:54 <Thunder_Fang>	"I'd rather not sleep under the stars in a desert again after that night Bolt and Volt made a bet over who could snatch up the most Gibles and awaoke a pack of garchomps.  That was hell."
Dec 03 16:54:13 <Hope>	"Oh god, that sounds terrible."
Dec 03 16:54:20 <DamienLunas>	<We won.> <Yeah we did!> <We all lost.>
Dec 03 16:54:59 <Thunder_Fang>	"Well, it allowed Little Fang to consume the Miracle Berry, but..."
Dec 03 16:57:03 	Hope looks thoughtful.
Dec 03 16:57:14 <Hope>	"Right, so where's the best place?"
Dec 03 16:57:28 <Thunder_Fang>	"Anyway, an inn, right," he heads off into town.  "Let's see.."
Dec 03 16:57:29 <Hope>	"Erm, actually maybe not the best, I don't have much money. We didn't actually use money in Ribbonwood."
Dec 03 16:57:54 <Hope>	"We traded berries for things, and various stuff like scrap metal had a price in berries."
Dec 03 16:58:21 <Hope>	"That's probably going to go away now that Landorus woke up."
Dec 03 16:58:24 <Thunder_Fang>	"Well, we did just free this town of a corrupt sheriff, they might be open for bartering."
Dec 03 16:58:43 <Hope>	"Maybe."
Dec 03 17:01:43 	Hope starts walking
