The Lair - round 7

[tomcat]

I rolled your roll, Tom, but with how important these are, I don't think it is me that should roll...

So I still need your roll for this turn.

[Telcontar]

Here was a foe that the ancient blade of the elf felt worthy of, the keen edge bit into the werewolf.  Morirúsë sang louder and louder, to inspire his friends, to combat the dakness, and to use every tool at his disposal against the darkness.

"The lamp friends! Tis like those of the Wood Elves, light the lamp!"

[Telcontar]

 

Rolled 1d2 : 2, total 2

Rolled 1d6 : 5, total 5

[tomcat]

Surprised and encouraged by the renewed presence of Morirúsë, whom she thought moments before slain, Esgalwen swings Nimronyn with a vigor anew, slashing deeply into the werewolf's side.

The Dúnadan could sense the spirit within the risen Elf and knew that it was hope that would kindle the light of the broken Lamp of Amon Lanc. It was all they had to give.

Unfortunately, she watched as the wound on the large monster's body close of its own accord - darkness covering it - and her spirit slightly fell.

Damn! That is not close enough for me to award a point there.

Sorry, man. Gotta keep trying if the Elf really wants to do this for Middle-earth and its new inheritors.

[tomcat]

Arbogast can still contribute a to the lamp for this round, if he wants.

[Telcontar]

  I'll try to add another for Arbogast. 

Rolled 1d12 : 2, total 2

Rolled 1d6 : 4, total 4

[Telcontar]

  oh for F@$ks sake.

[tomcat]

no, due to the sacrifice, I am going to wait for each person to roll their own.

[Telcontar]

  i was adding in lieu of as you indicated, not rolling for him.

[tomcat]

i was adding in lieu of as you indicated, not rolling for him.

Oh - I see what you are saying.

Well, I am not going to count you one less hope for this round, as you can only sacrifice it once per round. And I want to know if Arbogast will also participate - if he does, then it will be on him to roll.

If he says no, then I will count this roll for you, Tom, but for round 8.   

[Telcontar]

  ok sure. So what do you mean when you say in lieu of then?

[Eclecticon]

I intended to keep Arbogast in Open stance - he's defending Grimbeorn largely by being a more tempting target.  Counting on my fingers, that means that I actually managed the hit without using a Hope point, so I'll go ahead and spend one on the lamp instead.  Post to follow. 

[Eclecticon]

Arbogast does not know what the ancient Elf means when he speaks of a lamp, but the words kindle within him a deep desire to once more see the light of the Lamp of Balthi shining over the Great Hall of Woodmen-Town, to be once more among his kin and to hear the laughter of his childhood friends.  He finds himself taking up Morirúsë's cry.  "Light the lamp!  Light the lamp!" 



Rollin':

[Posterboy]

  Just thought I'd point out that the first roll that Tom did was a 1d2, not 1d12... this may have contributed to the low score.
