But he could apply the 3x Double damage, to each of his weapons? Double damage mace, Double damage death lance, Double damage broadsword? since "masterwork" items are bought on the equipment, rather than the regiment?

---

Spell abilities are still calculated in skill points, rather than "glory tally"

Please don't leave my army in the camp between the Death Knights and the Paladins... I want to live damn it...

[J-Kama-Ka-C]

Missed this before, so forgot to mention it, it's a little hard to pick out at first, but the equipment lists are all based per unit of 50, when you buy 150 archers, that's 50x3; 300x3, same applies to items. 50 silk shirts cost 10 gold, so 150 silk shirts cost 10x3

Mission 5 pls ta.

(The suidice class of the mission just tipped it for me)

[Fluffie]

Fluffie's men pack the necessary supplies as their leaders (Fluffie himself and the Medicore Hero) quickly make their way to whoever is in charge of handing out more details and route descriptions for mission 5. Not wasting any time, they feel their blood flow faster as their hearts sink into an ocean of regret and despair once more. This was still their night.

Not much later, probably before anyone else, the 153 riders leave Castle Ravayne with only one thing in mind.

Death.

Not a word had been spoken about the reward for the mission, in the unlikely case that they'd survive. They'd see about that, if at all, upon their beblooded return...

For now their was just the ground beneath their horses, speeding by.

Mission 3

BOUNTY HUNT

Location - Southern Golnir - THE VIOLET OCEAN

Danger Rating - EXTREME

Enemies = The Blood Pirates lead by Capt "Ahar me Harties" Smith

Rewards - 1500gp + 900 glory

Bonus - You will be given access to build Naval Units!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

----------------------------------------------

Ryon J'Kar's steed stamped the ground as he looked over his regiment of death knights. Their glossy black armor shone eriely in the bright sunlight and cool black eyes all looked to their leader in sincere reverence. He had led them to many battles and of course victories. He was destined to lead them. His eyes were blacker than any of their own. Their mighty daemon steeds all stamped the ground and whickered with anticipation and the feeling of a near battle.

Behind the columns of death knights Ryon's archers all looked solemn. Reverence was still in their eyes when J'Kar gave the order to march. They all moved together with good posture and a steady determined gaze.

"Soon, my brothers, We shall spill the blood of a vain captain!" His voice was commanding and compassionate at the same time causing some of the men to smile.

"Let's March!"

Ryon J'Kar and the hundred death knights slowly streamed out of the castle followed by the steady rows of archers that faithfully kept pace. All with bows and quivers secured around their backs. Ryon paused and turned his horse toward the castle as his army kept marching without a second's hesitation. They were well trained. He promised himself he'd be back and he saluted the castle. Some of the now passing archers smirked. It was always the archers that laughed, the knights always just moved forward, yearning for battle.

They smirked and even laughed because his men regard him as more than just a commander of an army, and they always laugh because they think it is ridiculous that he would salute to a king. He had heard some of them actually say "He still tries to play at being at the will of another man". To them he was their savior. A protector and someone who should never have to pay homage to anyone or anything. To them he was above all that and they wanted him to just grab hold of his destiny. But to Ryon J'Kar, Ryon was not some God or savior, he was a commander. A succeesful one.

However you soon see the fortress Abbey of Lacuna. Its grim grey granite walls standing out in the frozen white wastelands. You are greeted by the High Priestess, unlike the typical image of a priestess this one wears full plate armour and carries a knights shield and a morning star - she appears to be 40 years old with long black hair streaked with grey.

[Lady Hawk]

urquan and the nutters will be done tomorrow

[Ryon Jkar]

Ryon stood amongst the command chair next to the helm( I know it's only a ship.. I couldn't think of anything else to call it). His fiery eyes and his men all were anxious for battle and they longed for blood. All ships set sail and were out to sea, when Ryon called the order.

"Set course for BRAZEN!" We'll work our way from the longest spot inward. No chance for escape!" His voice was calm and collective yet it held such power that everyone who heard it jumped to obey. His men were truely loyal and now he had a very small navy. Things were going smoothly already.

"Let's kill us a capt'n!" Ryon roared and his men started singing sea-faring songs to pass the time.

The four looming ships moved out of the dock slowly and surely. All armed with large cannons and even for the small number, many would fear the banner that alighted atop each mast( A black sword backdropped by orange). Ryon Jkar and his death knights, have set course and would either return with the captains head, or.. they would perish on the high seas. Either way, the whole city would know of it and either way rumors would spread

[Lady Hawk]

You are all gatherd in the Mighty Throne Room of CASTLE RAVAYNE, where the Queen of the land LADY RAVAYNE looks at you all - she is about 30 years old and appears to be human, she has long black hair and deep steely grey eyes, she is also very good looking for a human one would almost say a striking beauty. She wears dark blue robes with a midnight blue cloak. arround the throne room are 200 Paladins who gaurd her.

Greetings Captains, you have possibly chosen, as you know once more HEXIS is now ready and poised to invade us in the SOUTHERN LANDS. We do not know how long we have before he attacks THE CITADEL OF VELIS KORIN.

She looks you over and then her eyes settle on the oriental looking chap. She gets up, and bows correctly from the waist.

Shingen NO DACHI it is an honour to have you here - How is the CLAN ASANAWA these days, i hope that KOU CHOU has not drained to much the fighting spirit that the Clan is known for.

I take it these other captains with you are under your command?

No Matter i feel much releived that a hero of such status as yourself are here to aid us.

Now to business - HEXIS has sent one of his most able Generals - THE WITCH QUEEN - SHANNAN DHOA she commands 3 LEGIONS (3000 men) of ELITE DRAKKEN, VAMPYRE LORDS, and CORNUGON DEAMONS of which these troops make up the bulk of her army (some 2000 strong).

She has been told to seek THE DRAGON BONE STAFF, this is meant to be the very staff that THE DIVINE DRAGON ASTEA herself was supposed to have weilded during the DRAGON WARS of 10000 years ago. If the story is true then this staff is able to summon that most fierce of creatures A DRACO LICHE (an undead ancient dragon)

You are greeted by the High Priestess, unlike the typical image of a priestess this one wears full plate armour and carries a knights shield and a morning star - she appears to be 40 years old with long black hair streaked with grey.

Greetings you are the Hero Hewitt who has been sent to help us?

We can lead you to the forest and then it is up to you - we will add a regiment of Priestess Acoylytes to your army if you wish as they need the battle training.

Is this ok?

*Hewitt bows in a gentlemanly-manner as he is introduced to the high priestess.*

Hewitt: Indeed I am m'lady and I would be honored to have a regiment of your priestesses accompany us on this quest you have given us.

Ranger1: *Elbows one of his mates and whispers to him.* Yeah I bet. The randy bugger will probably have them all swooning over him within the first five minutes alone with them.

Ranger2:*Whispering back* I hope not. After one month of this bloody cold I sure could use the warmth that comes from a good f-

Hewitt: *Looking back with a frown* I CAN hear you y'know.

Ranger2: Eep. *Blushes*

Ranger1: Erm... yeah... me and Fredrick 'ere were just kidding and... erm... sorry boss.

Ranger2: Yeah... sorry...

Hewitt: *Laughs* Bloody hell guys anyone would think I was gonna cut off yer ba- er... *glances back at the high priestess*

Ranger2: HEH

Ranger1: *snicker*

Hewitt: I'll speak to you two later...

*Hewitt dismisses the men then turns back to the high priestess hoping she hadn't caught on to his less that gentlemanly language.*
