I13DT - In Someone Else's World Of My Own

"Maker's Perch." she says, eyeing 'Aladria' and her demon doggie suspiciously.

"You're not in need of any assistance, are you?" she asks Brigid.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 5:42 pm

"She was just... showing me around, really."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 5:48 pm

Theresa waved her hand and her pointed ears disappeared. "Orb of Deception, sorry for the confusion," she said.

by **Narrator** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 5:52 pm

"Oh you're just sight-seeing?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 5:53 pm

"Well it's... you know, nice here."

by **ASHLIE** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:00 pm

"I'm sorry, I thought you two wanted to go adventuring. I shouldn't have butted in." she says, her voice modulating away from the somewhat squeeky Gnome voice and towards a more familiar range.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:02 pm

"Hey, roomie," Theresa said. "Adventuring sounds good if you're up for it." She looked at Brigid.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:03 pm

"Oh, I was just weirded out because I didn't know this was in the program or not. I only just got into costume myself."

by **ASHLIE** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:11 pm

"I'm part of the program though!" she says cheerfully. "I can link it to the actual game if you want, but responsiveness might be slightly worse."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:21 pm

"I'm good running our own server. Easier that way. Can you generate a griffon for Brigid? If we're still heading to Maker's Terrace that is."

by **ASHLIE** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:27 pm

"Sure. I don't really care where we go though." she says and opens one of the small bags on her belt and pulls out what looks like a set of reigns. She flicks them and a gryphon with a saddle poofs into existance, screeching at the three of them.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:28 pm

"I totally don't know how to actually play, so keeping it to the Danger Room where I can't embarrass myself is fine."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:46 pm

Theresa waved her hands again and a drake appeared next to her as her pet disappeared. She climbed up into the saddle. "Well, if you have some adventure in mind, ASHLIE, lead the way. I'm sure we can show Brigid how much fun this is."

by **ASHLIE** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:51 pm

"Climb on, I'll fly us there." she says to Brigid as she hops into the saddle despite the gryphon being significantly taller than the metal-encased Gnome.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:53 pm

In spite of being new to the setting, riding on an animal seems to be something Brigid is rather used to, and she climbs on easily without a second thought.

"Let's go!"

by **Theresa McMasters** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:03 pm

Theresa lifted off into the air, her drakes wings beating heavily as they got aloft. "Lead the way, ASHLIE, I mean... Togglevolt. I can keep up."

by **ASHLIE** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:19 pm

The gryphon takes a running start over the ledge of the water pool and flaps it's wings to gain height before taking off towards the north-east, passing by a giant towering structure that looks like a smelting accident involving a million spikes.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:20 pm

"...well, someone doesn't like birds landing there."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:23 pm

"Unless the birds are animated skeletons, no, he really doesn't," Theresa said, coming alongside them.

by **ASHLIE** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:31 pm

"It's the place for killing skeletons and skeleton-related things. It is stupid and boring. We're going somewhere with robots."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:35 pm

"Well, you heard the lady."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:37 pm

"I know where your'e talking about and you'll get no arguments from me."

by **ASHLIE** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:50 pm

It's a steep climb up the mountainside for their mounts but eventually they reach the peak and the giant buildings built into the mountainside. One of the massive doors looks like it was forced open and faint sounds of battle are ringing out from beyond, occasionally punctuated by an explosion.

Passing through the gate a wide open courtyard comes into view where a giant robot is stomping around, crushing scattering troops of mostly Humans, Gnomes and Dwarves.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:53 pm

"...okay, a robot."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 8:10 pm

"Meet the XT-002 Deconstructor. He's... whiny. You tanking this, Togglevolt, or are we supporting one of the folks down there?"

by **ASHLIE** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 8:45 pm

"Both!" she says before jumping off the gryphon with a high-pitched battle-scream, two-handing her giant (compared to her) sword and ramming it into the robot's shoulder in a shower of sparks.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 8:50 pm

"He barely looks held together by anything!" she says, jumping down as well and trying to wedge her staff under one of the cables coming out of the thing's chest.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 8:57 pm

"Magic technology, Brigid. Don't question it!" She yelled as she dove down, jumping off near the rear of the group. She summoned a small, horned imp and they began throwing all sorts of magic at the robot. Well, Theresa was throwing magic. The imp was just throwing fireballs.

by **ASHLIE** » Mon Jun 23, 2014 9:11 pm

Ashlie wrenches her sword free, slides down the big shoulder joint and kicks the robot in the 'face' and running along it's collar to avoid it's massive hand when it comes in to squish her.

Brigid's staff is wedged in the thing's chest but mechanically that doesn't seem to do much. The magical energy she's accidentally discharging into the thing's core however are, burning out some smaller wires and generally spraying sparks everywhere as it heats up.

"Core broken! These toys are no fun!" the giant robot whines and suddenly starts stomping around, crushing a dwarven tank underneath it's feet.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 8:14 am

"Watch the priest!" Theresa yells at a mage. "Slow Fall her as soon as she shakes loose!" She looks like she's about to call out something else when she starts glowing. "Stupid gravity bomb," she says, running away from the group at a dead run.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 12:13 pm

Brigid swings around with her staff hooked under the cable for a moment, but ultimately can't hang on and goes tumbling.

by **ASHLIE** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 1:04 pm

Just before she hits the ground something buffers her fall, stopping her inches from the ground in front of a disapprovingly looking mage.

Meanwhile Ashlie seems to be somehow hanging on to the thing's collar, kicking it's chassis repeatedly as she refuses to be thrown off. The occasional burst of electricity the giant robot gives off seem to be getting to her though and she's looking a little beat up.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 1:10 pm

Brigid gets up and frowns as she sees the gnome taking a zapping.

"Okay, how does this work?" She points her staff at ASHLIE.

"Feel-o better-o..."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 1:19 pm

"Works as well as anything else," Theresa called out, looking a little worse for wear herself. She opened one hand in the robot's direction and a rippling beam of green energy connected her to the robot. Immediately she started looking better.

by **ASHLIE** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 1:27 pm

Energy seems to be getting sapped from the robot as it grows sluggish under Theresa's attack while golden light swirls around Ashlie, leaving her looking as good as new as she pulls herself up onto the robot's collar, reeling back with her huge sword before driving it into it's ~~eye~~ optical sensor amid a shower of sparks.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 2:03 pm

"Does that... mean it's dead?"

by **Narrator** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 2:10 pm

As if on cue the robot falls to it's knees, wobbling dangerously as it's huge frame slowly leans forward and crashing down, breaking apart into thousands of bits of metal and cogs and springs.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 2:17 pm

"Not until it falls over," Theresa said, moving back to the group before starting to cast again. "Keep an eye on Togglevolt. Make sure she stays healthy. We lose her, we all get stomped really quickly."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 2:47 pm

"So... she's our muscle?"

by **Theresa McMasters** » Tue Jun 24, 2014 2:50 pm

"More or less. The term is usually 'tank'," she explained as she continued to throw fire and dark energy at the robot. "It's her job to keep the thing's attention focused on her so that the rest of us can do our job."
