suzume_sousha:

suzume_sousha:

suzume_sousha:
I think they changed that in the upgrades
togashi_udon:

suzume_sousha:

hida_oku:
oh yeah!
hantei4:

suzume_sousha:
I'll be the red ranger!
hantei4:
red is good

hida_oku:

togashi_udon:
god help us I think so
suzume_sousha:
sure. Though I did read the last few
games I'm still confused as hell as to what happened.
togashi_udon:
Beats me!
hantei4:
hehe. ok
hantei4:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
hantei4:
game start
hantei4:
We last left off in Sparrow Lands. The
weight of responsibility has weighed heavily on all
hantei4:
you all needed time to yourselves
hantei4:
2 weeks have passed since.
togashi_udon:
"Get away from me. I need Udon-time."
hantei4:
what started out as a snow flurry has turned into a heavy snow storm. Perhaps the heaviest you have ever seen
hantei4:
the meeting time had been set and you all begin to regroup... if only for
briefly
hantei4:
you are on the outskirts of SParrow Lands.
Suzume province
hantei4:
the Wasting Disease is now running strong here
suzume_sousha:
togashi_udon:
What a waste.
shosurokeshijo:
(( Oh the puns.... ))
hantei4:
you are just north of the town
hantei4:
and finally you all meet at the snow covered crossroads trudging your ways
hantei4:
it has been a long time since any of you has seen Oku
hantei4:
He now wheres the mask of a Unicorn
hida_oku:
heh
hida_oku:
er, dave
hida_oku:
actually, I had that other mask made
suzume_sousha:
(oh, can we stop for one sec, sorry to
interrupt, but can other people choose colors as well. Its a little hard reading)
hantei4:
oku: you took off Karasu's?
hida_oku:
I tried to change, it didn't let me
hantei4:
np. everyone but me choose colors
hantei4:
ok, i will then
togashi_udon:
ORANGE!
hantei4:
purple
suzume_sousha:
still red I guess
shosurokeshijo:
Uh... Blue!
hida_oku:
Black! like my soul now
hantei4:
oku: you have Karasu's over Tsukuro's right?
suzume_sousha:
Go rangers go!
hantei4:
hehe
hida_oku:
oh wait
hida_oku:
there we go
hida_oku:
shadowlands grey
hantei4:
Sorry. Oku wears an oni mask... like
that guy in tekken
togashi_udon:
Fitting.
hida_oku:
should I describe myself dave?
hantei4:
oku: yes
hantei4:
we all wait in desperartion
hida_oku:
Oku is riding atop a fine horse, wearing fine black and red silks, and an oni
mask (think the dude from tekken)
hida_oku:
behind him at a distance is a servant
hida_oku:
also dressed in fine clothes
hida_oku:
I wear a mon, but it is a combination of symbols
hida_oku:
crand AND shandowlands
hida_oku:
crab
hantei4:
comments on this?
hantei4:
Udon? Kesh?
hida_oku:
my ninja-to is now worn at my side
hantei4:
Soush?
hida_oku:
the servant carries my banner
suzume_sousha:
nothign at the moment
hantei4:
maybe Udon or Oku should get in words first
hida_oku:
I am glad to see that you are all still alive...
hida_oku:
(are we stil using quotes?)
togashi_udon:
"Brother Oku. Our time apart seems to have treated you...well."
hantei4:
whatever
shosurokeshijo:
I like the quotes....
hantei4:
quotes then
hida_oku:
"there is no need hide your feelings, tanto bearer"
hida_oku:
"we are all what we are"
togashi_udon:
And more.
hida_oku:
"or what we have become"
hantei4:
(I suggest someone inquires whether you are all still true to the quest)
hantei4:
quests...
hantei4:
reminder: to gather the 7 Thunders
togashi_udon:
...So, how about those quests...
hida_oku:
when we parted, I was still... held... by the crab. I assume I have missed much.
What has happened with you all?"
hantei4:
Kesh stays quiet i see
shosurokeshijo:
...
togashi_udon:
"Are we all still true to the Empire and to its people?"
hantei4:
show of hands? reactions?
suzume_sousha:
(which ones ahve we spoken to already?)
hantei4:
sousha: all but not all are with you yet... oh, never really chatted with
Kachiko at the palace much
togashi_udon:
(i am not really sure what has happened, but Udon wouldnt say anyway...not this
moment)
hida_oku:
"I am true to our cause, though now I am the envoy between the crab and
the shadowlands. My clan serves me, and
we have been asked much"
hantei4:
keshijo?
hantei4:
sousha?
hantei4:
udon too...
togashi_udon:
"Your Clan serves you?"
suzume_sousha:
I will stay with this quest. Maybe it
will lead to an answer to helping my clan and others from this plague.
hida_oku:
I believe that though the crab may have made some... reprocussive decisions...
that I am serving the empire in the best way I can"
hida_oku:
"My house in neither crab nor shadowlands, though I listen to both"
hantei4:
Keshijo stays quiet
hantei4:
everyone has an awkward silence
hantei4:
moral is low
hida_oku:
heh
togashi_udon:
"I am unsure of my path, but I will walk it knowing that it is Togashi's
wishes."
hantei4:
a cold wind blows
hantei4:
^_^
hantei4:
well, noone else is answering then
hantei4:
hehe
suzume_sousha:
"I also would like to walk with my friends and go where they go"
hida_oku:
"So... what now? Are we still
'brothers?' Do we still attempt to
complete out quest?"
hantei4:
which brings us to the next question sousha... where do you all go. Looks like you all need more time to travel
on your own again
shosurokeshijo:
"Hai. We are brothers. I know Oku will do what is right when the
time comes."
suzume_sousha:
(if we say no, does the game end?)
hida_oku:
"Are we 'friends'? I have seen
many things and grown much. Do not let
your eyes blind you"
hantei4:
(no, I just make your endings come together)
heheh
togashi_udon:
"We are brothers. We are friends. Lets not be lovers, though."
togashi_udon:
"That would ruin the quest."
hantei4:
everyone tries to laugh
hantei4:
(so where do people plan to go. any
suggestions for the others?)
togashi_udon:
I suggest we go to the deamons lair and see Kachichko (reall abd spelling)
suzume_sousha:
(if we are going to continue the quest I guess we need to make sure all the
thunders are ready to go. If not then I
guess we need to go speak to whomever we need.)
hantei4:
here are a list of ...questionable Thunders
hida_oku:
"I have come here to meet wiht you, and tell you what is about to
happen"
shosurokeshijo:
"Winter is coming. We should train
as well."
hantei4:
Kachiko, Kamoko, ummmmm....
hantei4:
Yakamo
suzume_sousha:
"what is about to happen?"
hida_oku:
"My army will soon lead the crab forces into the heart of rokugan. We will march on and take the Beiden
Pass"
hantei4:
...Hitomi
hantei4:
those 4 are the most critical
hida_oku:
"I had hoped that Kuno would be here"
hantei4:
and one more problem has come up. Doji
Hotori is missing
hantei4:
(Kuno wanted to goto Dragon lands)
togashi_udon:
Kuno might be with the Lone Wolf.
hida_oku:
I will lead the initail assault myself
hantei4:
last known.. Kuno plans to go to see Toturi and his love interest in Dragon
lands
togashi_udon:
Toturi (sp?) is the only Thunder we know we have...
hantei4:
Tadaka seems like he is greatful too
hantei4:
and Hotori was a friend of yours
togashi_udon:
right
shosurokeshijo:
"That is... interesting."
togashi_udon:
right
suzume_sousha:
(who currently holds the pass oku is going to take?)
hantei4:
4 to go. Those other 3 are... at least
receptive
togashi_udon:
(I think the Crane? Or Unicorn amybe?)
hantei4:
Sousha: Beidan's pass is held by the Lion and Unicorn now.
hantei4:
mostly Lion
togashi_udon:
(doh)
suzume_sousha:
(perhaps its a good thing kuno isn't here then
hantei4:
hehe
hantei4:
Kuno is a felon in many lands
hantei4:
So, Kuno goes north and Oku plans to go south to Crab lands to lead an assault
against the Lion
hantei4:
oops wait. Sorry. Crane still holds that pass
hida_oku:
(whew!)
hantei4:
sorry
shosurokeshijo:
Ugh.
hantei4:
it's ok if you want to team upp in small packs guys
togashi_udon:
(thought it was the crane!)
hantei4:
(me too. lol)
suzume_sousha:
"oku why must you take this pass?"
shosurokeshijo:
"I will be traveling to my people.
They still have a part to play in this drama."
hida_oku:
"If any of you would like to accompany me in the battle, I invite
you. I understand if you pass on the
offer. The tanto quest must be pursued,
as well"
hantei4:
Keshijo decides to go west... into the Shinomen Forest
hida_oku:
"the crab mean to de-throne the Dark One"
hantei4:
Sousha: a good opportunity for a tainted spirit like yourself. hehehe
hantei4:
Udon?
hida_oku:
"Remmeber that not all in the Shadowlands support His rule"
suzume_sousha:
hantei for which?
togashi_udon:
Hrm...
suzume_sousha:
(oku's sounds interesting at the moment
hantei4:
Oku reminds you of your conversation with Oni no Tsuburu who plans to defeat
the evil one
hantei4:
rishards (yep)
hantei4:
Sousha: you yourself made a pact with Oni no Tsuburu
suzume_sousha:
(i remember all to well)
hantei4:
in return for his spirit servnts
hida_oku:
heh
hantei4:
you ARE the champion of Oni no Tsuburu
suzume_sousha:
"Oku I think I will join you on your quest if u will have me along"
hantei4:
...and Udon....
hantei4:
who watches this play out
hida_oku:
"of course I will have you...."
togashi_udon:
The tide has shifted heavy to the dark on one path.
hantei4:
Kuno might need company... you might convince him to follow you to the palace
hantei4:
Hotori was last seen there
hantei4:
..with Kachiko
togashi_udon:
Either I go to the palace alone
togashi_udon:
Or I get Kuno.
hantei4:
^_^
suzume_sousha:
"Then we will stop the evil one together"
hantei4:
you again can all meet after the winter... if it ends
shosurokeshijo:
"Udon my friend, go where your heart leads you."
togashi_udon:
I will get Kuno and drag him kicking and screaming by the ear all the way to
the palace.
hida_oku:
"and you, kesh? You have been
silent"
togashi_udon:
That will give me a smile.
hida_oku:
"where will you go?"
hantei4:
...
hantei4:
Keshijo has something to say
hida_oku:
oh
shosurokeshijo:
"This is a winter of Fu Leng's doing."
hida_oku:
"yes..."
shosurokeshijo:
"I must meet with the Shosuro and prepare."
togashi_udon:
(( This is the Winter of our Discontent ))
hantei4:
That's 4 known scrolls of Fu Leng now open.
Wasting Disease, The Iron Citadel (home of Yogo Junzo), The Black Wind
from the Soul (acid clouds), and the Long Winter
hantei4:
8 to go
togashi_udon:
Happy Happy, joy joy
shosurokeshijo:
"And we will discuss the clan's... traitor."
shosurokeshijo:
"Among other things."
hantei4:
Keshijo: I'll again remind you that you are at this time invited to Shosuro
Bantaro's castle to resurrect Bayushi Shoji
hantei4:
and be his guide
hantei4:
if not you..than someone else
hantei4:
anyone have opinions?
togashi_udon:
Resurrecting the dead is bad.
togashi_udon:
mmmmkay
suzume_sousha:
hantei4:
but it will be done regardless
hida_oku:
seriously... even I'm not that dark!
suzume_sousha:
(I might if i had the ability )
togashi_udon:
Kesh, do you want to stop it?
shosurokeshijo:
"Hai... but I cannot act against my family..."
hida_oku:
"perhaps we can try to stop it, then?"
togashi_udon:
You have a amry of Hells Angels to lead
hantei4:
eheh
hida_oku:
true dat
shosurokeshijo:
"I cannot betray them either. I
can only hope Bantaro finds some sense."
togashi_udon:
Not with our luck.
hida_oku:
"is it against your clan to help him come to his senses?"
hantei4:
at this point, I have enough to go on to make games for you people but feel
free to keep talking
hida_oku:
"you can try, no?"
hantei4:
and ask questions to the present afairs of the world
hida_oku:
that was easy!
togashi_udon:
Perhaps I should go with you. I have no such misgivings. Except that I would
like to keep my head attached to my body."
hida_oku:
I SPRING MY TRAP!
hida_oku:
KIDDING!
shosurokeshijo:
"I had. I am going to turn to
others who may have more ... influence... over him."
hida_oku:
hantei4:
heh
togashi_udon:
((I'll climb up on that horse and bitch slap you))
shosurokeshijo:
(( I pull the little string that makes Oku's head fall off... ))
hantei4:
are people clear on where everyone is?
Thunders? Demons? Emporers?
hantei4:
i can refresh memories
togashi_udon:
((nope, but i am waiting for kesh to comment on my offer))
suzume_sousha:
please do
hantei4:
don't worry if you forgot names
hida_oku:
((Oku's head falls off, but keeps talking))
suzume_sousha:
I'm retarded and forgot a lot
hantei4:
rishard: ask away.
hida_oku:
brb
hantei4:
Udon: you are planning to go in the opposite direction
hantei4:
castle right. Forest left
suzume_sousha:
names of demons I suppose
shosurokeshijo:
"I would be honored. I am not sure
how the others would feel, but Togashi has a special ... friendship... with
us. I think it would extend to you.:
togashi_udon:
Hantei: I offered to change in order to stop the resurecction.
shosurokeshijo:
That was to Udon.
togashi_udon:
Am I a mouse walking into a den of vipers?
shosurokeshijo:
"In a manner of speaking... The
mouse must be wary and nimble to survive."
hantei4:
here's the major badguys from the Shadowlands:
Fu Leng (the Emperor), Oni no Tsuburu, Yogo Junzo (shugenja of Fu Leng
and ex-Scorp), finally.... Moto Tsume (general of Fu Leng. You never met him. Tsukuro served him.)
togashi_udon:
Diplomacy is not my strong suit.
hantei4:
^_^
togashi_udon:
But I have read the Book of Lies!
hantei4:
you all have ^_-
togashi_udon:
Perhaps they should just "Pretend" to do it.
suzume_sousha:
(diplomacy isn't my strong suit either.
Unfortunatey neither is fighting)
togashi_udon:
((Better then you))
shosurokeshijo:
"Perhaps then the best path for you may be elsewhere. I must admit I also wish to see my family
again."
togashi_udon:
I think it maybe more important to find our lost tanto bearer.
hantei4:
bum bum buuuuuuummmmmm
hantei4:
I'm sure he is fine ^_-
shosurokeshijo:
"Much as I would like you to come along, that may be a better path."
togashi_udon:
Kuno needs more light then Oku or Sousha...maybe.
hantei4:
(everyone looks at Oku)
hida_oku:
back
shosurokeshijo:
"How is everyone's Jade supply?"
hantei4:
and makes an ick face
hida_oku:
hold on... catching up
togashi_udon:
"I could use some"
suzume_sousha:
I think 2 fingers, but I'm not sure.
shosurokeshijo:
Dave, I try to purify anyone's weakened Jade before we part.
hida_oku:
heh...
togashi_udon:
Thnx!
hantei4:
Kesh, make a roll -3 for all the jade
hantei4:
and length of cast
shosurokeshijo:
Yeah. I'm looking for the table...
hantei4:
1 hour standard was it?
hantei4:
try the 5 minute version. hehehe .. or
20 if they wait in the snow
hida_oku:
<brrr>
hantei4:
i think you need a 23 for all the jade
shosurokeshijo:
Oh. Not a problem then..
shosurokeshijo:
26.
hantei4:
each of you has 1 additional finger
hantei4:
not you kesh
hantei4:
^_-
shosurokeshijo:
Well, yeah...
suzume_sousha:
"Thank you sir"
hida_oku:
thank you
shosurokeshijo:
3 is enough for me anyway.
hantei4:
hows everyone feel? cold? low
moral? about to do war?
togashi_udon:
Domo.
hantei4:
hehehe
shosurokeshijo:
I bow.
suzume_sousha:
ready for battle I suppose
shosurokeshijo:
"Hopefully soon I will be able to fix more than just Jade."
togashi_udon:
Ready to Rock Steady!
hantei4:
hehe
hantei4:
cool. well that's it for now all!
togashi_udon:
cool
suzume_sousha:
and your pc didn't give out on you
hida_oku:
sweetness
hida_oku:
it was good talking to you all again
togashi_udon:
yeah, this was great
hantei4:
^_^
hantei4:
