Fremea just nods at Unali. "It would be good for me to have the mind shield too."<br><br>She then hovers around, seeming impatient.<br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div>> Date: Fri, 15 Jun 2012 11:37:58 +0200<br>> From: broere@powersandperils.org<br>> To: pnpgm@abroere.xs4all.nl<br>> Subject: Re: [pnpgm] Game Update #232 - File #1428 - Square one<br>> <br>> Scott, welcome back. In the mean time the list and p&p site are back up <br>> as well. Hope all stays this way.<br>> <br>> Unali:<br>> "Arawn makes a fair point. Although I see no reason why the Brain I saw <br>> would be a fake, the fact that they must be aware of us and waiting <br>> reduces our chances. If they can spring a surprise from a different <br>> location that could be disastrous.<br>> <br>> On the other hand, if the Brain and portal are genuine, that gives the <br>> Brain a supply of new warriors through the portal. Delay in closing that <br>> portal could be a disaster as well.<br>> <br>> We move up these stairs as a group. Fremea flies up to scout the stairs <br>> ahead of us. Please stay out of sight of the Brain, so stay a few metres <br>> aside or above the cave opening. I would like the Mental Shield thing on <br>> the forward group at least, or all of us that might enter the cave if <br>> possible. Anyhting else that can help, Battle Mind, Speed?<br>> <br>> When we get just below the cave opening on the stairs, Kell can send in <br>> the elementals first, and other help that we can bring if available. <br>> Their task would be to attack the brain. Then we rush in to assist, and <br>> the plan will be fluid from that point I guess.<br>> <br>> Farseeker, Arawn, Raban, with myself, will you make the forward group? <br>> Attack the Vong guards first and open the entrance for the others. <br>> Chion, would you stand by to get us all out of there if this fails <br>> miserably? Kell, Fremea, up for the task? if Fremea spots something, <br>> above, or on the stairs, we decide quickly based on what it is, but move <br>> down and meet it in the open seems the best strategy.<br>> <br>> Arawn, It is probably not he best of plans, but the risk of delay is <br>> great as well. Strong objections, then please voice them now. Else I am <br>> willing to receive that Mind Shield.<br>> <br>> And for your safety (addressing the girl) stay at the back of the group, <br>> but do not trail more than a few metres behind. I am not usre it is safe <br>> down here or I would suggest you stay. Stay close, stay silent, and I am <br>> sure we will get you out of here."<br>> <br>> <br>> On 06/15/2012 06:12 AM, pnpgm wrote:<br>> ><br>> > HT Aliaver/Player Character Name Type Status/Notes Sex<br>> > -- -----------------------------------------------------------------<br>> > R1.John Haight...........Arawn.............Druid .Normal/Alfar Ma<br>> > ??.Chris Wells...........Ben'dar...........Warrior.Normal/Human Ma<br>> > R4.Tom Corckett..........Caladan...........Wizard Normal/Human Ma<br>> > W2.Marcel Liberty........Chion.............Sailor..Normal/Human Ma<br>> > W3.Ryan Torres...........Farseeker.........Warrior.Normal/Human Ma<br>> > --.Tobie Bonahoom........Fremea............Sidh....Normal/Faerry Fe<br>> > R2.Mark Murtha...........Kell..............Trader..Normal/Human..Ma<br>> > R1.David Sanders.........Kiet.Sunan........Acrobat Normal/Human Ma<br>> > R4.J H Hooten............Raban.Usherwood...Bard....Normal/Human..Ma<br>> > W2.Robert Maxwell........Strie'bog.........Bard....Normal/Human..Ma<br>> > W4.Wout Broere...........Unali.............Ninja...Normal/Human Fe<br>> > R1 John.Stowman..........Will..............Hunter..Normal/Human..Ma<br>> > R4.Alex Koponen..........Z'leyra...........Healer..Normal/Human Fe<br>> > R1 NPC...................Zhou Kiwat........Noble...Normal/Human..Ma<br>> > NPC...................Captain.Lin.......Warrior.Normal/Human..Ma<br>> > Animals: Corona [Eagle] Z'leyra, Tef'wo (Horse) Ben'dar,<br>> ><br>> > Game Web Site - http:/nrgcomputers.com/pbem/<br>> > Public posts/actions to pnpgm@abroere.xs4all.nl (mailing list)<br>> > Private emails (not public actions) to pnpgm@comcast.net<br>> ><br>> > Game Update #232 in sequence (file #1428)<br>> > ----------------------------------------------------------------<br>> ><br>> > Admin Notes: None.<br>> > -----------------------------------------------------------------<br>> > [Recap]<br>> ><br>> > From Arawn: [Re: Vote]<br>> > Vote-<br>> ><br>> > Arawn still would prefer to investigate the other caverns<br>> > first.
