DungeonCrawl thread 3: It is a thing of beauty

[PlumFinder]

Red knows when he's lost, and makes a run for the Shop.
'Hey! He's getting away.'
'Then shoot him! You've got a... Ugh, nevermind, I'll get him.'
Navy warps in front of the fleeing Red, stabbing him and attempting to tackle him.
'Sorry mate. You ain't leaving this alive.'
Red takes No Damage, and runs past Navy.
'Grey! Stop him!'
'Nah, he'll just Gust me again.'
'I broke his Sword!'



But it's too late, and Red tumbles into the safety of the Shop.
'Oh, hello. Do you happen to know what all that ruckus outside my shop is?'
'Some hooligans, I think. You might want to shoot them if they enter.'
'Wouldn't that be a bit disproportionate?'

Also, is the damage calculated before or after the shatter?

Depends entirely on which command is given first.

[Red709]

oh come ON

[PlumFinder]

oh come ON

It was a perfectly predictable result. Red gave his command first, and Navy was the only one trying to stop him. You may recall Navy can't even penetrate Red's defense.

[Kocel232]

Team Navy:

[Gecky]

Interior Jubilee, yay! Also, did I really fight four people and not lose any health?

Red

Red repairs his broken swords, he also reflects upon his current condition and the bonuses offered by his class while checking the vendor's wares and his own item's prices. Yes, he does all that, not because he wants to be a dick to the gods that be but because he has simply a very wonky memory.

'Do you have anything that could make me... Invisible?'
'Or some kind of staff crafting guide?'

[BlazerC]

Navy

'One moment.'

Navy goes up to the wall and smacks his head into the said wall a few times.

[Pony Hank]

I just plain love this

[Red709]

It was a perfectly predictable result. Red gave his command first, and Navy was the only one trying to stop him. You may recall Navy can't even penetrate Red's defense.

Actually it was more along the lines of
GOD DAMN IT LET IT END ALREADY

[BlueYoshi]

oh come ON

OH COME ON.

Yeah that's really all I have to say on the matter.

[Riou]

Muahahahahahaha.

[Red709]

hey uh blazer
I'd reccomend repairing your shit so you're ready for the point where Red inevitably comes back out, guns - er, SWORDS - blazing

[BlazerC]

Navy

I also do that. The repairing thing.

[brainfree]

Can you guys please start going after the bosses instead of dicking around trying to kill each other? Its been three threads already and there hasnt been any real progress since around a third of the way into the second...

[Gecky]

Muahahahahahaha.

I'm guessing you want Red back, right?

[Kocel232]

Smart Berserker. One should always try to live to kill another day.

Red: "So, uh, you hiring? I've always wanted a job in retail. Safe, safe retail."

Also, how do you do the fancy background thing on the text?

[BlazerC]

Brainfree, you know whats going to happen if we attack Mustard + The Black Master? Red is going to join in, there is no way in hell that Red wouldn't take that opportunity.

I am confident that we can take on the Boss. No sweat. I'm not confident that we will be able to take on the Boss and "One Man Army" Red at the same time.

And yeah come onnnn who the hell retreats into the shop.

[Riou]

I'm guessing you want Red back, right?

Nope. I just want to see the action unfold.

GO FORTH FOR GREAT JUSTICE!

[PlumFinder]

'Bummer.'
'One moment.'
Navy vents his frustration on the wall. And on his head. Then he repairs his Bone Buckler, which is a remarkably difficult feat when your head is freshly wallbashed.



Red, meanwhile, takes his time.
He repairs his Air Cutter while reflecting on all his stats:

Attack: 4
Defense: 2
Speed: 1
Items - Worth:
- Mouse Armour (+3 Defense) - 2 Myridin.
- Icy Claw (+3 Attack, lowers target's Speed) - 3 Myridin.
- Air Cutter (+3 Attack, Gust) - 3 Myridin.
- Golden Key - 0 Myridin
- Arena Mask (+2 Defense) - 1 Myridin.
- Arena Shinguards (+5 Defense) - 4 Myridin.
The two Arena items give him an additional +1 bonus to his Defense.

His Tier 1 One Man Army class gives him 1 additional Attack for each Attack and Defense item or buff, and -1 Speed for every Speed item buff.
It also gives him the Shatter ability, which allows him to destroy or depower items.

The Shopkeeper has in store:
- One (1) Curved Blade (+2 Attack), 2 Myridin
- One (1) Scroll of Decay. 3 Myridin.
- Several (~) Scroll of Sight. 2 Myridin.
- One (1) Scroll of Faith. 6 Myridin.
- One (1) Arena Shield (+4 Defense, special), 6 Myridin.
- One (1) TopHat (+1 Defense, special), 3 Myridin.

- One (1) Mystery Box (?), ? Myridin.
- One (1) Gauze Dress (+1 Defense, +1 Speed), 2 Myridin.
- One (1) Cup of Pixie Dust. 2 Myridin.
- One (1) Massive Bomb. 4 Myridin.

He has also got books one several subjects, healing potions for 1 Myridin each, and stat potions for 3 Myridin each.

Red needs to know a lot of stuff.
Also, if I tell you guys the boss fight(s) will be more fair than you are thinking right now, will that change anything?

[Red709]

well it depends on what "fair" means. if fair means Brown and Steve could actually beat one, then Red wouldn't be a problem; if it's "they'll be able to get past navy's defense no problem" kind of fair then leaving Red alive = assisted suicide

[Gecky]

Red

Red sticks his head out to check if the coast is clear. Since it isn't, he just laughs at Navy. Back in the store, he chats up a storm.
'So yeah, I'm planning on visiting Mustard to tell him that Green died.
Afterwards, I'm probably going to the Room of Sins, that place looks pretty cool.
So, uh, what do you do here all day?
I mean, we are your only clients, right?
Hey, what is that Mystery Box?
Could I buy it for 0 Myridins?'

[AJfriss]

Grey

Lob off red's head as he sticks it out the door. I know I'll miss because he's quite a bit faster than I am, but its worth the try.

[BlazerC]

Navy

'Come 'ere!

Navy tries to drag Red out of the shop when he pokes his head out.

[PumpkinAppearifier]

Oh hey look its me posting in this thread to keep track of it.

Would you guys pleaaaaaase leave that room, this game has gone very stagnant recently :/

EDIT: Seriously, you wont be getting red out of the store. I know your inner strategist is screaming bloody murder against letting him live but theres simply nothing you can do to get rid of him currently. Better to pull him out to you than wait forever in front of the store turning this into the longest waiting game ever (which it already is getting mighty close to being!).

[Kocel232]

I second the "Navy and Co. move on and kill the hell outta other things." I mean, yeah, Red could become (more of) a significant threat, but that shouldn't be a problem if Team Navy goes on to power-grind themselves and take on the FINAL BOSS.

[Red709]

I third that, and also suggest that plum have a random plot-nuke set to kill EVERYone who doesn't get their asses to at least one room over from their current positions in the next two turns... or Red will just camp in the shop forever
