h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

[Anole]: *looks around through the mist and fog. Takes out his enchanted sword*

[Aeryn] *sees Anole and takes out crossbow*

[Sharp]: "Yipe!"
*steps a little more away from it.*
A dusty sounding voice,-more wind than voice-says "You have been...warned. Be/keep wary..."
[Sharp]: ""

[Sharp]: *grips his scythe*
The dusty voice,-trails off...
[big 'ugly']: *it's axe creaks as it is scrapped along...*
*it moves the -ed battle-axe over to one side...* so that it is holding it in one hand...@ attention.
"Go..."
*indicates w/empty hand*
"...That way."
*pointing in a given direction*
[Sharp]: "Uh, thanks..."

[Big 'ugly']: "I did not say..."

*swings axe downward,-the blade goes into the dirt-temporarily dispelling the fog around it (for a few seconds @ least).*

"...yet."

[Sharp]: "Oh."

: Nerd42, where are you?

: This is hard, isn't the DM s'pposed to do that sorta thing?

He's offline

Oh. then, do you wanna have us fight this, ,-thing, or have it give us directions instead?
[Sharp]: "..."
[Big 'ugly']: "..."

[Big 'ugly]: "First,..."
: (, but I'm feeling particularly @ the moment):
You put yer left leg in, ya put yer left leg out,(-etc.)


[Big 'ugly']: (thinking the lyrics to the Hokey-pokey): "... That's what it's all about. "
"Wuahahahahahaha!"
*then a little taken aback...*
"...What?"

[Sharp]: (to the others): "Y'know,-for somebody who's s'pposed to be grim & imposing,- he seems kinda , eh?"

[Sharp]: "Well,-how are we gonna get past him?"
*team huddle?*
"...any ideas?"

[big 'ugly']: *continues to disconcertingly the song*
[Sharp]: (to the others): ", now what?"

: Well...

[Sharp]: "I figure, asking him for directions is pointless...If anyone gets too close...he may be lival to try an' take a swipe @ them."

[Big 'ugly']: "..."
*looks over @ (the lot of) them.*
*waits*

umm ... this kind of thing (making up a monster such as the statue, would be perfectly fine when there's no events on in an area. Right now, though, the zombies event is still going on ...

Also, I check this site twice a day. That should give each of you folks about two turns a day, unless u happen to be online at the same time as me which may get you extra ones but I try to balance it out so you aren't THAT far ahead of everybody ... I cna't be online 24/7 ya know?

So, let's try and finish up this statue thing quick, so we can get on with starting the quest, eh?


[Gandark] Say, thanks for the bombs. They're Fire Bombs right?

*looks around*

[Gandark] Looks like some of the zombies were digging up other zombies ... they were obviously coordinated ... making collective efforts in a definate direction with a strategy ... so someone or something has to have been controlling their movements. And he or she or they or it may be in this graveyard somewhere ...

[Gandark] is that statue moving!?
Nerd42

: : Oops,-(how would you say?)-My Bad! . I wasn't doing take-over...We were just resortin' to the 'peer-to-peer' thing, 'cuz, well 'cuz nobody was sure where ya was...
You can do whatever ya want to now, w/the 'uglies' & the s, I was just, (how would you say),-stalling...
[Sharp]: "Yes, it did...And 'it' can move...(Whatever you do though, I don't think asking Mr. 'It' to tell you a joke,-would be very wise ."

[Sharp]: ", I mean it,also, can speak. Go ahead, ask 'im a question if ye want..."
:

: I think they are. What Sharp calls them,-they fall under a category he lists (dubiously) as 'normal's. .
[Sharp]:" Yep. So whaddya say we take down this dumb piece of wasted ectoplasm, eh? Or maybe if we trade it,-the little blue jewel,-then he'll either give us some advice & leave us alone,-somebody'll still hafta fight him, or who knows? A gate-keeper, . He might even be able to help...( Yet somehow though I doubt that)."
