That Thank you for putting so much effort into explaining things to me! :)

If you'd like I could PM you with ideas and pictures for characters so I don't clutter the OOC so much ?

_{Fixed typo...}

Sure thing. That works for me. Hit me up and I'll respond as soon as I get a sec.

Hey everyone, I want to apologize for my slow posting. I've been dealing with semester finals and an interstate move over the last couple of weeks, and I haven't had as much time to sit down and post as I would have liked. I'm working on getting up to speed, and should have a post up pretty soon.

No worries Jet. You're still cool in my book.

FYI everyone. I'll be going on a two week trip to South Korea on the 19th, so I may not be as available during that time. I'll pop in as much as I can.

I'll prepare another quick Sil Post over the weekend. Need some time to think it over.

currently thinking of a post

Now to see if his "Sil whispering" is effective or not.

I was desiring a much more choreographed opening strike, but then I realized she was outside. So I'm saving that for next post.

Anyway's apologies for the delayed post. My days have been spent watching the WC and gaming.

No worries buddy. This is actually a mission that sil can handle.

well then all I gotta do is stand back and watch the fireworks.

How is the temperature and the climate overall?

The sightless mentioned burning buildings. If things get too hot (literally, not figuratively) it will be quite taxing for Karina to use her magic.

So it's currently Summer, but early morning so not extremely hot yet. It's also warmer up North than to the South. I'll work on a post as soon as I have a moment. Still sight seeing in Korea. Tomorrow morning may be a good time to start a post.

@Jerkchicken is your character currently inside the building looking out or did he already step outside?

@Hokumpocus I can see your illusion magic being really useful soon. ;)

Inside the building

Flying back to the states. I'll make a post maybe over the weekend. For the time being, havent heard anything from @elevation. I'm going to act as if he is still with the players until escaping the village.

You there guys? I was going to post but since I posted just before Pezz, I maybe should wait for DB, and the rest react to what Karina shouted.

Do we really want to run away though?

Feels kinda lame to not engage with a potential big fight. But I'm fine with running if it means we can attack the seed, although honestly it seems like beating the sightless will be a thing that happens on the way to purging the seed.

@Jerkchicken

At least for Karina, the situation she is right now is very complicated. Due to the cultists sheer numeric superiority and the fact that Karina is in a poor position, surrounded by all sides inside a building that will be burned down... Strategically there is only one option, fall back to reposition.

And if all that still isn't enough, she doesn't know the others who are with her. It's not like she was with a group of other soldiers. There is still the fact that she doesn't know how powerful this Syella is.

Whew. That was a long and exhausting plane flight. About 15 hrs.

Anyway, I'm with Org on this one. The smart thing would be to run for now and come back on a battlefield of your own choosing. Although Chres would welcome the chance of getting himself killed in a humiliating way like this, the bodyguard in him feels an obligation to make sure his death won't be a serious detriment to the team.

The cult did mention that they would rather have the characters alive than dead due to something Ms Sightless referred to as the Unspoken Pact. That may give us somewhat of an edge in a fight, but the numbers are on their side. Also there are ways to injure and immobilize people without killing them. Keep in mind that our new friend never said keeping our characters alive was a requirement. So it might not be too much of an edge. Also they have magic users and deterrents. A hasty escape is by far the better option than an unprepared and uncoordinated strike.

Also running away in a situation like this isn't guaranteed to be clean. We are surrounded. Even with illusions helping us, one way or another our characters are likely to be spotted escaping, especially by the Sightless. Sightless can't see light, and since light constructs are made of light, she'll be the first to notice what's going on.

So although we might not get a chance to kill a sightless just yet, her spotting us almost guarantees that our characters will have to duke it out with her before escaping. The ability for her to grow her appendages will make it easy for her to reach the rooftops and what not. Since her fellow cultists can't do the same, this will also give us a numbers advantage against her.

Working on my post. Still a little jet lagged. might have it done by tomorrow.

@Pezz570

I was kinda waiting for the rest of the characters to reply before I posted anything. DB & etc for example.

They're probably busy me thinks :). My post is ready, btw. Also @Fetzen is putting the final touches on his character. It's been approved. He'll be posting it when he has a moment.

@JerkChicken, @HokumPocus got anything for us before I post?
