Overlord's Orders VIII

[Rainshadow]

  *Gulp*  Wuh-oh!  What's she gonna say? 

[Romsca]

The Overlady thought this over carefully. "Burned shrews and eaten treasure... hmm... but I did ask for treasure, didn't I? I don't care what happened to the shrews. Rainshadow, you will be fed to the monitor lizards tomorrow morning. Guards!"

A few guards dragged the unfortunate Rainshadow away.

"So psybox, PluggFiretail, and rusvulthesaber are still in. What will be my task for you this time?" The Overlady thought this over for a minute. "Go to the North Mountains and bring back a rare dragon with green scales. This task should take you about two weeks, no longer."

They stood staring blankly at her.

"Go already!"

-Five days later-

"Why are you back here already? And without the dragon? Tell me, what made you come running back here looking like you've seen a ghost? What scared you off? Explain yourselves!"

[Rusvul]

It was plugg! While we were climbing the mountains on the second day, plugg threw all our ropes and climbing gear off the mountain for absolutely no reason! And then Psybox and Plugg started brawling. I tried to stop them, but then they turned on me. They said poisonous, dark, treasonous things! I resisted their will, but they had a dagger to my throat. They forced me to run away down the mountain with them, without a dragon. They came back here. I think I overheard a plot against you!

[Rainshadow]

  Well, I guess I'm a ghostie now, huh?  Cool!  *Starts haunting the remaining servants*

[Rusvul]

Ooc: Was my post Pp'y-y enough that I should change it?

[psybox]

Psybox, who stumbled into the room in a very unusual manner, Started to defend himself.  "I *hic* didn't say anything *hic* Poisonous, dark or treacherous things about *hic* you...  It was all about *hic* Rusvul's favorite *hic* singer.  He tried to make us drunk by *hic* poisoning our food supply with *hic* a very strong wine.  I wasn't affected, because whenever I drink a lot of alcohol, the negative *hic* effects happen *hic* a few days *hic* later, but it caused plugg to *hic* admit her *hic* plot *hic* against you..."  with that, he fainted.  He woke up a few seconds later, completely fine.

OOC: Is PluggFiretail the only one that still needs to post?

[Kitsune]

*Clears throat*
What happened, Overlady, was this.

We were climbing up the mountain, but then we decided to stop because it was getting late. In the morning, me and psybox were the first ones up because rusvul was still sleeping. We saw the dragon fly overhead into its cave at the top of the mountain. We prepared all our climbing gear and headed up the mountain. When we got to the top, we saw that the dragon was feeding her newly hatched babies. It turned around and saw us, and charged at us. In our fright we dropped our climbing gear and it fell off the mountain. By this time rusvul was awake, and he heard psybox shout "Oh no!". This probably made him think that I threw all of the equipment off of the mountain. We hid behind a rock, and psybox was so scared that he started drinking out of a flask in his belt. It smelled like whisky. We needed to regroup and make a different plan, so I told psybox to retreat back to the bottom of the mountain. When we reached camp, we told rusvul to run with us, because we thought the dragon was right behind us, but he wouldn't listen. Psybox became angry and threatened him with a dagger, and pushed him down the mountain threatening to stick him in the gut if he didn't. Psybox caught up to where I was and, being as drunk as he was, forgot about rusvul. We were almost at the bottom though, so rusvul decided to follow us the few extra feet. Psybox asked me what we were going to plan again, and I told him that we were going to plan a plot against the dragon. Halfway through me idea, psybox thought I was talking about you, Overlady, and said that we should boil your head in grog. Rusvul overheard this and told us not to say such things about you, and started to run back to you. I followed him because I knew I could explain this and because rusvul didn't have all of the information, and psybox followed me.

OOC:  If someone says something is true, You can't make them wrong.  You have to either make it seem like it's the right thing to do, blame the other people for doing something worse.  If someone says you threw all the climbing equipment off a mountain, you threw the climbing gear off the mountain.  this problem also applies to multiple other things about your post.

[Kitsune]

OOC: *facepalm* Ugh. I didn't see those. I'll fix them soon.

[Rusvul]

The only reason I put the wine in your food was because you shook my arm as I was pouring it into a glass! You both still insisted on eating it, and so Plugg got terribly drunk. That was before she threw our gear off the mountain, though, and I still don't know why she did that.

[Romsca]

OOC: I'll tell Plugg the previous post needs to be revised by April 10

[Romsca]

OOC: Well, it's now April 11... sorry Plugg...

BIC: The Overlady carefully thought this information over. "Plugg, you are not allowed to contradict the information of others. I have decided. You will be the one to get punished. I will sentence you to get burned by ghost fires and to be locked in awkward Cellars topics forever! Mwahahaha!" She sent PluggFiretail away.

"Now please," she addressed rusvulthesaber and psybox, "Please take the treasure from the rival clan. This should be an easy job, so I expect you to complete it. I'll give you a week to complete it."

OOC: You succeed! Like the last tournament, be creative

BIC: A week later, they returned with the treasure. They had succeeded. The Overlady gave a short speech: "Good job. Now tell me how you got it."

OOC: Basically this.

[Rusvul]

We were great and heroic warriors.. We fought entire hordes of enemies singlehandedly! We fought to their leader, slew him, and stole the loot.

[Romsca]

OOC: I'll PM psybox and ask him to post. This round ends in a week
