Dear TBS,

You will have flavor entries from Lord and Marla tonight, as well as a possible entry for David. I'm sorry it's taken this long, but I'm taking matters into my own hands to get things rolling again.

as I will drown everything you have inside.

I'm afraid I'm gonna have to drop out. Storybooking just hasn't been keeping me interested anymore.

Sorry babes. Good luck. :)

H'okay. The scene that took an entire month to beat out is finally here for you, and now we're going to continue on and fight my bb Casius. Kat will die during the fight, but I'll let one of you be the one to kill her off at your discretion.

Other than that, I'm really interested in hearing from you guys as to some things you may predict at this point plot-wise. What is Lord's band up to? Will they be successful, and will it mean the failure of our band of heroes?

Sooo, one of our heroes kills Kat? OR does someone else kill her?

I was thinking Casius. xD Though I guess it could be friendly fire, and then later weigh heavily on the killer's mind...and the rest of the group would lose trust for that person.

I love how everyone makes Helios such an asshole. xD It's so perfect! I've NEVER had a SB character be portrayed with such perfection like this.

*dances* I'm so pumped!

I figured it would be a good idea to post here with the general idea of the next movements of the teams so that anyone and everyone can write the upcoming events.

Basically:
1. While hunting for Paige, the gang will encounter Casius. His mission from Lord was to poison the forest's elder tree, to which all of the other trees in the forest are connected. This would eventually kill the citizens of Morning Vale as a second crest of blood.

The gang needs to fight Casius (i.e. a boss fight) with an eventual ending being that Casius' gear malfunctions. Maybe a gun jam or something. Or Helios could blow up his explosives in one go. The trick with that is that Casius' explosives are Light-Blessed like Marla's scythe, and thus they don't inflict any damage on him. He'd basically lose for a lack of offensive power.

2. The heroes take Casius hostage after destroying the poison gem.

3. They return to Norcaster and find everyone dead, along with Marla's message to Casius at the scene of the major fight. Whoever does this part, it's up to you to encrypt the message however you want, but it should basically say, one way or another, that Lord is injured; they fled west to Sajania to find The Doctor; they need Casius to rendezvous with them.

4. Y'all can decide whether or not Casius escapes. In all of my plotting, I can't figure out the thing that pulls the gang to Sajania - though they could have a story arc of their own while Lord's warband licks their wounds.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this stuff.

@Shadowlight will be starting the fight. >:] to help out, i'm giving everyone the first edition of Casius' spellbook, which is limited to the five, the same as everyone else. so:

1. Quickshot: A basic ranged attack, firing one or two pistols at one or two enemies. Does minimum damage on plate armor, light damage on mail armor, moderate damage on leather armor, and bleeding damage on cloth armor. Recharge: Fast
2. Shrapnel: A powderless bomb explodes on Casius' command, spreading iron slivers in a hemisphere around the bomb. Does not affect plate or mail armor; does light damage to leather, and causes bleeding on cloth armor. Recharge: Medium
3. Flash Bomb: A series of magnesium bombs fill the air, blinding three or four enemies in a cone. Does no damage. Recharge: Medium
4. Pistol Whip: A paralyzing slap to the back of the head from one of Casius' pistols. Stuns one enemy for a moderate length of time. Recharge: Medium
5. Napalm: A full-fledged bombing using fiery explosives. Hits all enemies within ten yards of the initial explosion. Deals high damage. Recharge: Long

people. people pl0x. i've given you everything possible but the words in your posts. i don't know how else to encourage writing. the temptation to archive this and take it on as a personal project is dangerously high.

@Lumi

PLEASE trust me, I don't want this to die either! I LOVE this SB but in the last month my family has been slammed with a lot. Injuries, sickness, hospitalizations, weddings and my grandma nearly dying 2 times. My car blowing up and work drama.


I don't want this to die but I have had other real life priorities that have taken top spot on my to do list.

BUT tonight and tomorrow night I will have free evenings so I am trying to .ine up all my posts that I owe.
