If anyone in the group is an artist, PLEASE draw the characters in a mock-up Pokemon (Or any battle-centered anime, at that) AU-verse. XD Oh my god, that'd be awesome.

As do I!

You know what guys, if this is still going by IC page 20, we should hire someone to draw all our characters.

Edit: 1337th post, I'm so leet.

I could try but I'm horrible at this shit, and I've no idea how to use my tablet properly (I also don't think I have the drive to push my drawings past the doodle phase).

[ButtsnBalls]

Sorry 'bout the delay guys. Been quite busy and not a lot of time to build up round 2. Gonna aim for later today, which will hopefully include a simple battle system and map, in addition to the post.

To secure pier seven, half of the Kamal grunts must be eliminated, or their officer has to be killed. Kamals will retreat when one condition is fulfilled.

Kamals

The shield soldiers carry a sabre as the offensive weapon.

The spearmen carry a long spear and either; a, shorter javelins + spear-thrower; b, a backup sabre.

The mages wear light armor, which is much easier to exploit. They either cast bared handed and have backup daggers, or use a staff.

The officer's armor resists incoming spells. Novice spells are completely negated, apprentices significantly reduced, adepts suffer minor decrease and expert spells are unaffected. It can form ice barriers.

Everything beside the officer should require at least 2 guys to take down, the officer takes 4+. You'll get hurt bad if you go in solo.

There are 6 EEC fighters, 1 of them is an adept fire mage. 2 Dawnguard provide overwatch with crossbows, from the ramparts. Direct the DG's fire, and you can prioritize them on accuracy (less chance of hit but more critical hits) or fire rate (more chance of hit but less criticals).

Overview and Zoomed Maps

Before you start writing, do four things.

1. Choose target (1 per character)
2. Group up (you can take NPCs, don't take more than 2 per person)
3. Choose how you approach the enemy
4. Schaft and I will give you a dice roll based on your scenario, which will determine your outcome

Edit: Updated battle map. Please tell me your starting position on it.

The debris are mostly ice bits from destroyed atronachs.

Orakh is not available, he's recuperating inside. Madura, Dough-Boy and Dazzi are on the walls. Farid arrived late and is trapped fighting on pier two.

@MiddleEarthRoze

I was like "Wait, this is happening." As I started singing the song mentally when I read about sweaty palms lol.

Quick question on NPCs, do you mean ones that are GM created or are these player created? For instance, say you ask a city guard for help.

@Peik

I'm up for a collab, I'll be on the etherpad

@gcold

As the outcome of various maneuvers and attacks will be determined by the roll of the dice, does that mean our characters could potentially be killed off? I do hope not...

@MiddleEarthRoze

I'd assume we'd have to play our characters spectacularly stupidly to get killed off so early, even if death is a possibility. Either that or just get really, REALLY unlucky rolls.
