OOC: Why do I get the feeling I'm making the choice for everyone?

IC:
Rose wasn't about to lay down for this injustice. As soon as the Deku was behind, she quickly leaned forward, giving her right leg extra power. Hopefully her kick would land against the the shrub. At the same time, she takes her sword, still in its sheath, off of her belt and mutters something beneath her breath. Out loud, she said to the Deku as maliciously as she could, "I think I ate your mother in a salad once."

"Being rash again, Rose?" Alpha yells back at her. Now, though, his voice is filled with approval rather than annoyance. His fist instantly flies backwards towards the face of the Human who was stupid enough to get within range of the Sheikah. And as it does so, his staff emerges in his left hand's grasp, ready to blow a few people away. Alpha may not be happy about having to fight his allies, but if they're going to be that stubborn . . . then they bring it upon themselves.

Look at this Hylian and his silly pointy ears, though Blank, spewing the last of his drink on the floor as the Knight approached him. Wait a second... He shook his head and scolded his stupidity; he was not normally so ridiculous. At first, Blank intended to do nothing along the lines of a scuffle. He had intended to go about it a more political demeanor. First of all, by asking just under what charges of treason the newly formed Twilight Guardians were being convicted. At the moment, they were nearly perfectly innocent. How had Harkinian pinned the six of them down as traitors, when all they had done was chosen to fight the battle in a different way?

"Glad to see you're always the diplomat of the party, Rose," chuckled Blank as he unsheathed his twin swords. Normally, Rose was the more eloquent of Hyrule's adventurers. With eloquence normally existed patience and a still hand, but Blank was still thankful that there existed women capable of such great fighting spirit. Seeing Alpha spring into action, Blank knew there was no escaping this situation; now it was full-fledged treason.

Going for a less conventional method of fighting (and not wanting to injure someone in such a friendly setting - i.e. the hazy tavern, littered with passing out drunks and loud, obnoxious deadbeats), Blank jabbed the handle of his left hand sword into the Hylian's chest, bringing the handle of the other upwards towards the temple.

OOC: Being that this is part of the event...
Human's stats:
STR: 8
DEF: 8
AGI: 2
INT: 1
SPI: 1
HP: 40

Deku's:
STR: 8
DEF: 5
AGI: 5
INT: 1
SPI: 1
HP: 40

Hylian's:
STR: 8
DEF: 5
AGI: 2
INT: 4
SPI: 1
HP: 40

IC: The Deku expected this from such a being, and rolled out of the way.
(10 + 2 + 5 = 17 vs 5 + 5 + 5 = 15)
He counter attacked, but she was beyond him in skill
(8 + 8 = 16 vs 6 + 16 + 4 = 26)
(evade the attack in any fashion you find fitting for Rose...)

Rose: 41
Deku: 38

Meanwhile, Alpha battled the human knight. Knight dodged it extremely quickly (in any fashion you'd like). (Sorry. I deleted the stat stuff. I'm just getting used to this...)
"Heh. Foolish Sheikah!" he exclaimed. His sword flew at the mage. Alpha dodges it in time.
(8 + 1 = 9 vs 5 + 12 + 6 = 23)

Alpha: 53
Human: 40

And Blank fought off the Hylian. The jab was luckily blocked by the knight's sheild. "You just crossed the bloody line, boy!"
(7 + 11 (being that he only used his left hand ) = 18 vs 10 + 5 + 2 = 17)
The knight thrust his iron blade forward at Blank. The nomad was able to block it his his forhand-blade swiftly and strongly
(14 + 8 = 22 vs 11 + 17 + 2 = 30) (Boy... I'm worried about fighting you in the arena, lol.)

Meanwhile, the Goron quickly gripped Tayro's wrist. "I'm not letting you fight this!" he said with a snear.

Rose rolled forward, and then quickly turned around. She dashed back towards the Deku and swung her sword in a vertical arc; her sheath did not fly off, explaining the meaning of what she had muttered under her breath earlier.

OOC: Alpha, let me know if I'm doing this right or wrong, PLEASE! I know I am missing something with the dexterity of the AGI. Or the INT. Whatever it is, I'm missing it.

IC: The Deku parried the attack with a Deku Sheild
(5 + 2 + 5 = 12 vs 14 + 5 + 5 = 24)
The scrub quickly exhaled a Deku Nut from his mouth, like that of an Octorok.
(being that it is close range, it will be 10. Savy? 50% chance.)
-_-... Obviously, his accuracy was terrible, for it flew, almost hitting the bartender. It did, however, smash a few glasses near them. The bardender hid under the counter.
(1 + 1 = 2. 2 > 10)

OOC: I know I did the innate check right, no?

EDIT: Hey! I almost forgot. (Alpha, or anyone else, if this bothers you, then please tell me, and I'll stop. But it's a new obsession...

Rose grinned. "Man, you're horrible," Rose said in a taunting voice. "Your mother had a better shot. But then again, I did have her in a salad, didn't I?" Remember, don't try to take too much pleasure in this, she thought to herself. You just want to make him miss more often. After her remark, the human swung her sword three times at the Deku.

OOC: Will that count as three separate attacks or just one?

OOC: I don't see how that could be more than one, really. Sorry. But we can always RP it . I'll only do the one part of the fight, but...

So, I don't know if I'm confused or not, but I'll just do this since I'm not sure, and it's more action-packed .

IC: With a loud Deku curse, he shot another nut. It was not as inaccurate, but it still missed Rose.
(7 + 1 < 10)
Rose slashed back with her husband's weapon, which was parried by the Deku swiftly.
(10 + 2 = 12 vs 17 + 5 + 5)
Their swords clashed countinuously.

Blank and Alpha also had their own battle to fight. The Human made a thrust at the Mage. But Alpha swiftly blocked the blow.
(10 + 8 = 18 vs 4 + 12 + 6 = 22)

The Hylian Vassal commented to the Hylian nomad, "Come peacefully, brother, and you'll save yourself from a lot of trouble. Even if you defeat us, more will come!" As their spar went on, the Sheikan vassal had had enough of watching, and joined into the fight.
First, though, the Hylian attacked Blank, who barely parried it...
(10 + 8 = 18 vs 1 + 17 + 2 = 19) (OOC: Seriously... that wiz close...)
... because his eyes were upon the Sheikah.
(16 + 3 = 19 vs 12 + 17 + 2 = 31)

OOC: ... should I change the stats? This is too even, and isn't getting anywhere.

OOC:

Well, Nogare, uh . . . I have no idea where that third number for the defenders is coming from. It's just the defender's AGI + their DEF. There's no rolling involved in defending from physical attacks.

Oh, and you were signed off for that last post of yours, in case you didn't notice. Wait . . . since when did the Jarod Bug leave Parapa!?!

IC:
Still wondering what it is with Rose and her terrible puns/comments, Alpha lets out a sigh - just before the Human jabs forward with his blade. Whipping his staff fully out of its confines beneath his cape, he brings it in line with the staff, allowing the sword to imbed itself within the wooden weapon. He quickly withdraws it, however.

With a mighty warcry, Alpha turns from defense to offense, heaving his staff around and bringing it crashing towards the knight that had dared to attempt to grab him.

A Guild it is... Yeah!

The boy, still sitting on the wooden chair - that made him wonder how could it still be perfectly fine with all the rowdy fights that he read that happened in places like this -clenched his fists, not in anger, but excitement. The fabled Guilds had returned, and, to much of the boy's pleasure, he was one of the members that had awakened that legend. Besides, he was amongst his friends and companions, who he could trust with his own life. What a good way to cheer up even the darkest of times. The corruption, the endless slaughter... it all had to stop. The boy nodded his head in approval, although no-one had actually said anything repliable with that motion.

However, something caught the young Hylian in surprised. He got up fast, after hearing the Sheikah mage's words. Spirit Shrine. That place linked up with Parapa, which linked with sand. Sand, something the boy had learn to despise after his last adventures in the desert, getting lost for hours and not finding the way. That is quite enough to bolster the mage apprentice's disapproval of that. He wanted to complain, but decided to withdraw his thoughts from it. Although he hated the desert, there was more to that place than it met the eye, and he had to accept the fact that it was probably the best place of them all. He once again sat down, not uttering a word and instead deciding to just hear on this, trying hard to ignore the annoying background sounds as barfs and scary-sounding laughters coming from the drunken persons in the Tavern. He couldn't blame them, though. With these hard times they were going through, it was enough to even drive one insane.

One sound caught his attention in the middle of all of the place. His ears turning slightly and curving at its tips, the boy knows exactly the sound's source, and the Hylian can't help to eavesdrop on the conversation. He knew fully well that "curiosity killed the Deku", but in this case, thank the goddesses that he did. Even without turning, just by their attitude, the boy has no doubts on their identity. Man! Talk about bad timing!...

He doesn't turn back to face them, as he probably wouldn't be able to restrain his anger for them and the abusive Royal Family. For a measure of safety, as he knows fully well that their intentions would probably turn hostile, and so, he takes the security measures strictly - as in, grab his trusty Deku weapon, which would probably be of very much aid. Focusing on Alpha's negotiations, he readies for the time that he would have to run, or fight. It was the latter.

Tayro jumps from his chair and does a semi-loop in the air, now facing his new opponents. He'd rather not do this, but... ...they started it! - he thinks. The mage apprentice is rather surprised that all of the guards attack everyone...except himself! Instead of feeling happy of being let alone, he was rather the opposite - angered to the fact that they didn't think of him as a strong opponent. Making a use of his time, he prepares another one of his magical surprises.He starts to draw one of his known circles in the air, the curved tip of the staff drawing curved lines, who magically followed it. To much of the boy's dismay, they all vanished, as his staff is dropped when a massive Goron grabs him by the arm. The good part of the situation is that, seeing as the Hylian had catched the staff with his other hand, he had a full, clear shot of his opponent. However, in this situation, the best course of action would be a trick he had never used before in battle, one he had trained long to perfect.

With his left hand, he draws a complete, large circle in the air. However, this time, he draws an hexagonal star instead of a pentagonal one inside the rune, and focuses his energy. He examined what possible elements would be good for the situation, and the answer is obvious. The best one here would be 'Water'. Gathering his stamina and magical energies, he focus a grand amount of power unto his staff, releasing it to the rune. It curves slightly down, as usual, as a large sphere is formed. "Elemental! Explosion!!" - he yells, and the large, single sphere divides itself into a larger number - exactly the number equal to the lad's opponents, and take no time in being shot directly at them. Please, let it be Water!

The hand holding the front of Alpha's staff was forced toward the opposite end as the attacked was blocked with ease.
(2+1 vs 8 + 2)
"Meheh... you know, you SHeikah were once very honorable creatures. You once gave your free will to the Royal Family. Now, generations later, you only want to be criminals. Kasei, Denning... and now you." He hit back at the Sheikah quickly. Alpha was hasty enough to bring the staff back before the sword hit him.
( 17 + 8 = 25 vs 12 + 6 = 18 )

Human: 40
Alpha: 34

OOC: OK, Now, Tayro, in case you didn't see, the Goron grabbed you. So this is going to be while you're in his grasb, aye?

And thank you, Alpha ... but how does AGI come into play here?

IC: Unfortunately, Water was not what the apprentice mage's willpower summoned...
(Roll = 5. Fire = 1, Water = 2, Nature = 3, Earth = 4, Shadow = 5, Light = 6)
The tavern grew from mildly dark to sightless. No one could see their opposision. An eerie breeze swept through the inn. The dark power suddenly gave a draining-like feeling to all of the vassals. The Hylian groaned in agony, while the Sheikah grew stronger in the setting.

OOC: Didn't I say that there were 5 Hylian knights? Sorry. These guys are the same ones who arrested Lock, or Stratis, of you will. There's a Hylian, Goron, Zora, Deku, and... hey, wait a minute... That's six... -_-... okay... let's pretend there are six. Alright? Or should I eliminate the Zora, since he's not in combat yet, and the others are?

And also, Alfa, I... uh... don't know how the weak to/strong to thing works. Eh... help? I'd better edit it now before the battle starts...

OOC: Well, let's see . . . first things first, Nogare - you should probably make sure you're logged in before posting. Just a suggestion.

AGI has no affect on Magical attack/resistance.

. . . you know, it's laid out fairly well in the window that's opened when you use the dice roller. PM me if you have difficulty with it after reading that.

Oh, and I believe it's +25% DMG for weakness to an element, +50% for very weak (ex. Deku hit by Fire), -25% DMG for resistance, and -50% for very resistant (ex. Deku hit by Nature).

IC:
Alpha turns and looks straight at his attacker with the crimson glare of the Sheikah. "I am no criminal, and if I have to defeat you all to prove it, then so be it!" His hands shoot out in front of his face, almost giving him the full force of his blast - but then his arms whirl around to the Deku. "ELEMENTAL BURST - FIRE!!!"

A molten ball of red fire forms in the Sheikah's hand, flying forth with impossible to dodge speed straight for the Deku in charge. Alpha wanted to make sure that when he spared their lives, these idiotic knights realized that he could have ripped them apart at any point in time.

Rose saw Alpha's fire ball head towards the Deku and decides that that should bring him down. So she quickly scanned the room and saw Tayro having difficulty with the Goron. She maneuvered her way over to them and brought her sword down upon the Goron's head. Unfortunately, she couldn't think of a way to insult a Goron (OOC: )

OOC: Superior ! Thank you very much! Man, I never noticed that . Thank you very much, Alfa!

And I am logged in when I click on 'reply to post', but my bro always has programs going on his file, thus mine is slow, thus the time expires, so to speak. So... yeah. It's his fault!

Now Alf, what aboot SPI? How does that work?

IC: The shadows made the Hylian shake. The power of the darkness caused him the most harm - though the harm was more phycological than physical. But it harmed everyone nonetheless.
Hylian: 7.5 DMG
Deku: 6 DMG
Goron: 6 DMG
Sheikah: 4.5 DMG
Human: 6 DMG

OOC: That's right, no?

IC: Hylian: 32.5
Deku: 34
Goron: 34
Sheikah: 35.5
Human: 34

"Stupid Hylian!" exclaims the Deku, and was about to jump at Tayro, before he bwas in for the time of his life. The flame went at the Deku to them all. The Deku squeaked in astonishment, as the flames swept over him. "Nayru help us!" The crackling of the flames was all that could be heard over anything else.

Hylian: 29.5
Deku : 26.5
Goron: 31
Sheikah: 32.5
Human: 31

The Deku squealed, Deku sap spirting from his eyes. "Ah! The agony! Ah! It burns! Water! WATER! WATER, Eku!" Eku must be some curse in Deku.

The human yelled, and in rage, shot a blade toward Alpha. "Din curse you to Yomi!!" As most Sheikah and Hylians knew, Yomi was another word for the underworld, or hell. Thanks to the skill of the Sheikan Mage, it was parried/dodged.
(5 + 5 + 2 vs 12 + 6)

OOC: ... crap. I just realized that I misread your attack. Elemental Bursat, not explosion. Oh well . It gives you guys an advantage... in this case... but there is yet to be a trade-off...

IC: The Goron, recovering from the blast, looked up, damning in Goronic. He barely looked up in time to see Rose coming at him.

OOC: Just so you know, this is the Goron's stats, in case I didn't put them in before.
STR: 14
DEF: 3
AGI: 2
INT: 1
SPI: 1
HP: 40 (for the moment... )

IC: The attack hit him, hitting his rock shoulder.
(5 + 4 = 9 vs 3 + 2 = 5)
(14 + 7 = 21 vs 5 + 4 = 9)
Goron: 19

OOC: I'm sure that's right, no? And this is 12 hours later, to those who have been waiting for this post for a while.

IC: In the Goron's fit of rage, he heaved his ax at Rose as hard as he could.
(12 + 8 vs 16 + 4 ...... 0_0 ......)
The attack was blocked/avoided only inches from the massive blade.

It was not until the Deku fled from the Tavern in flames, cursing in Deku, did you realize that the tavern was catching on fire! And fast! Of course, it was expected, but the flames stopped the fight for less than a second.

"Flee!" exclaims the human.

Only the Goron stayed to fight on. "This is to the king, you bastards!" But he could not attack before he was attacked again.

OOC: See? What did I say? This is all about choices. Even doing a kind of attack will affect you in this. So guess who's up next on the wanted poster !

And I made sure I was logged on! Isn't that great?!

OOC: Excellent, Nogare! ^_^ I'm on the most wanted list . . . again! This oughta make FoG even more interesting . . . especially Part 8 . . .

SPI is used to increase certain other stats that people have. SPI is added on HP, SPI, and Willpower. Other than the effect it has on other stats, it plays no part in battles, stat or RP.

And yes, you did that part with Rose correctly . . . at least, as far as I know, when the attack and defense rolls are the same, defense wins. As for the Elemental attack, we'll just say it was Explosion, and ended up being the element of Fire. However, I believe that when an attack would deal .5 DMG or whatever, it is rounded up to the nearest whole number.

So now it's just the Goron left? Sounds fun.

IC:
'Perfect . . . now the building's on fire . . . that's no good.' Alpha slaps himself in the forehead. He should've expected that to happen; fire and wood never had mixed well. Of course, the Sheikah was an expert in lightning, not flames. Then again, wherever lightning struck it normally left a raging inferno behind . . .

He looks back at the lone opponent remaining in the area: the Goron. Perhaps the cost of burning a small portion of the Ornery Cucco was worth the purchase of most of the enemies fleeing. Looking around, he sees most of the people fleeing as well, and heaves a sigh of relief. 'No innocents left means we can finally fight to our true potential. Goody.'

So all that is left now is to put out the flames and dispatch their final foe. A grin forms on his face as a thought strikes him: he can kill two rocs with a single stone. Concentrating his powers again, he focuses the attack into a form that will do so: "Elemental Burst - Water!"
