You could use the pillars to block doorways. Which....doesn't make a whole lot of sense, since an occupied space usually only counts as Rough terrain. In theory you could move through a Celesteela with its pillars, but not the pillars alone. But if we just treat it as a mechanics thing, then I guess it works?

Also, I'd make it a swift action to recall them. Otherwise I feel it's a bit too restrictive - if you've got both out, you're basically stuck for two turns while you recall them.

[M0rtimer]

It would probably be just a "mechanics" thing, yeah. But it's easy enough to say that if the celesteela is knocked out, it becomes passable again- So your possibility of "block the door" would work.. For a little while.

And yeah, probably. I'll make recalling a swift action...

[Natrivv]

So Irene just volunteered as a sacrifice. Not sure why I even bothered with a stealth roll of patheticness lol

[Dusk9]

So yeah, Izzy's basically suggesting you people with crap Stealth stay a few dozen meters behind the rest, so you don't completely blow this for us. Up to you guys whether you actually follow her advice though

[SuperVaderMan]

It's OK, Koa has Stealth!

[Natrivv]

I'm fine following behind lol. Though klefki will stay up with you as part of his way of taunting Irene of how stealthy he is vs her.

[Arch Lich Burns]

It's OK, Koa has Stealth!

No no he does not stealth does not mean dead silent and he is obviously highly visible in spite of making litte noise

[Theis2]

Does Irene even know about the guy if neither Izzy nor Drake is divulging the information yet?

[M0rtimer]

Technically, no. Only Drake and Izzy had the perception to spot him, and if they are not in any way alerting the others...

[Dusk9]

Edited my action

[SuperVaderMan]

Heads up, I'll be flying out tomorrow to attend a friend's wedding, and I'll be gone from the 24th until late on the 27th. Idk how much internet access I'll have during that time.

[Natrivv]

sorry everyone didn't mean to force the situation.

[Arch Lich Burns]

Except we did check if it was dead/alive to best of our abilities. Haley has pathetic med, she thinks it's dead. Alex is barely any better and didn't seem to gather info if it was actually dead. I douby bjorn wants to check on it and Luna csnt.

[Dlover]

Well, kind of a shame to leave so soon, though I can't think of an IC reason not to. If that was the darkrai-gifted Zoroark it would've been Alex's best chance to get a patron legendary. >.>

[SuperVaderMan]

It's doubtful she'd have been able to help Alex with that anyway. She doesn't know where Darkrai went, and he left over a year ago after blessing her when she was still an egg.

[Dlover]

Dang. Well, I'll find the misfortune god to bless the misfortune magnet eventually.

[M0rtimer]

Are you sure that wouldn't mean Alex needs to find Manaphy and get cursed by it?

[Dlover]

Nah, in BatD Darkrai's practically the god of misfortune. Kinda. He gives prophetic dreams of catastrophes to come.

... Actually, I guess Manaphy does have the Luck domain. But its gifts are trash tier, and you've indicated it'd be near impossible to get blessings from more than one legendary. I guess being cursed would be more like Branded than... Anything else that gives Touched. Still, I want no involvement with Manaphy. The Fair Lady is the only one I shall worship for luck!
Also I want to avoid being Branded. 'cause the brands are all awful things. Except maybe Mark of the damned, because you just know Alex would end up with something dumb like having his irises shaped like flowers.
... Actually, Stigmata's not bad. Especially with Aura Storm from Aura Guardian. It's like a permanent +9 damage. Which still sucks, of course, but it's not bad... I think he's built up enough of a reputation with the pokecentre, though, he doesn't need to add "He just won't heal" to the list.

[M0rtimer]

I was under the impression that Branded does not "really" require any of the "brands" listed specifically... It's basically a method for a player to get a blessing from a "less friendly" god- As rather than "blessed", they end up "cursed", but the end result stays the same: They gain their patron powers in return for tasks delivered, except in one instance it's "I'll do this because you're my patron and I've pledged loyalty" and the other one it's "I'll do this because you'll make my eyes glow red (or stop making them glow red) if I don't."... With the brand just a little added "bonus".

[Dlover]

So... What you're saying is that the suit magic the Spark provided is part of a Branded deal?

[M0rtimer]

I mean, did you guys take the suit on 'involuntarily'? Will it merge with your skin if you don't fulfill it's objectives?

[Arch Lich Burns]

Now i have to ask if what the overseer did was a brand or just plaij inappropriate touching of the soul.

[M0rtimer]

Both Drake and Koa could potentially have become branded back there. But it didn't seem like either were interested, and I don't intend to actually brand someone unless they're actually fine with it OOC (IC being an entirely different matter)- So no, Drake being touched like that was just a case of "I need an adult."

[Dlover]

I mean, did you guys take the suit on 'involuntarily'? Will it merge with your skin if you don't fulfill it's objectives?

A brand is a result of a "deal with a devil", not necessarily something involuntary. Even your description isn't necessarily involuntary (Person wanting the legendary to make their eyes glow red in exchange)

[Arch Lich Burns]

Are you sure because it really seemed that way.
