Mephistopheles' main story - part 2 You're still in the town of Tukuar, and more problems arise everyday. There's someting strange.......... you recieve a letter from the mayor, but it's not to hire you to help the city or something, he is inviting the mercenaries for dinner at his house. It may not be expected...... although who would refuse? The letter is sealed and signed, so there's no mistake, the mayor wants you to go..... maybe the job is too important and has to be told personally. Who will go? enter position. Party so far:

To gamemaniac: tsukasa just entered, and anyway mods should be the highest-level characters and you're stucked in A1 since that's where you were in the last for not saying specifics.
To tsukasa: this is sort of medieval RPG, no Megaman stuff enter here.
To game: I'll take A3 to cover tsukasa.

So... I'm not waiting for more characters since there are no more yet.
You three go to the mayor's house to enjoy dinner as expected.
You arrive and everything is suspiciously quiet and cleaned...... then you find out the mayor has around 6 maids, so it's all ok.
Mayor: "There is something I need to discuss with you, however, I invited you to dinner and I don't want the food to get cold, I'll explain after eating."
You eat the best food in all Tukuar, Mephistopheles eats like a pig.
After dinner.....
Mayor: "There has been a series of robberies in town recently, but, not some thieves police can handle."
-The mayor drinks some wine- (don't ask why, he's rich, ok?)
Mayor: "The stolen things are not mere gold or jewelry, some enchanted stuff, spell ingredients or rare materials have started to disappear, and that's not even the beginning."
Maid: "Sir, are you going to tell-"
Mayor: "Yes, they need to know, we must trust someone or it will all be lost."
Mephistopheles: "Something important?"
Mayor: "Yes, although important artifacts have been stolen, there is one special artifact that could be stolen, and it's too important to fall in wrong hands. Look."
Tsukasa: "What is it? it looks like a magical medallion."
Mayor: "Sort of, this stone placed as a medallion I carry all the time is an ancient rune of great power, legend says that when the three runes of Korothar are united, the man to unite them will receive incredible power and a gate to hell will open at the place."
Mephistopheles: "Quite strong that little stone, never thought on breaking it?"
Mayor: "Gods no! if the rune breaks, it black magic would be free into the world, infusing with evil humans, animals, every living creature."
gamemaniac: "Almost nothing huh?"
Mayor: "The rune must not fall in wrong hands! I need you to protect it, however, it shall always be around my neck, so you must protect *me*."
Mephistopheles: "Sounds fine, as long as the pay is good."
Tsukasa: "Mephistopheles! erhm, forgive him, we will gladly help you."
Mayor: "Until the thief is stopped, you will stay here."
Now, you need some sort of strategy to capture the thief, he will surely come for the rune, who knows when, but if he stole other valuable artifacts he sure is a good thief, what's your plan?

I think we could use a decoy to misslead the thief. Mephistopheles could take care of "protecting" the decoy and Tsukasa and I could guard the real mayor. If anyone spots the thief calls for the others. Or if you don't want to split, we could all guard the mayor and prepare the decoy with a trap or something. Maybe even a magic trick would do. What do you think?

It sounds fine, I could guard a decoy, you two still guard the mayor very good, there could be more than one thief, so better to have more power in the real mayor.
What's that of a magic trick? like what? I didn't know we had magic tricks....
Let's wait and see if Tsukasa says something.

After you guard the decoy, Mephistoteles tries to separate the thiefs if they are in groups, so when there are three or less thiefs, you make the thief follow you to attract him to where Gamemaniac and I will be, if possible we go for the other group

I dont think there'll be that many thiefs. Doing this kind of work needs the stealth a big group can't havce. But your idea about luring the thief towards the other defender isn't bad at all.

So, we will separate, I go alone to guard a decoy and you two guard the real, hide well....

Yes, you protect the decoy and Gamemaniac and I protect the mayor, we could make a magic trick. We could make a smoke curtain and dissapear, so the thief can't see us.

Mephistopheles goes into a quite visible room, with a decoy, one of the waiters or something dressed as the mayor...... gamemaniac and Tsukasa go into the basement with the mayor. You can't make such magic trick, you don't have that ability...... Quite time passes and nothing happens, when it's starting to get dark something seems to be wrong.... Three guys appear in front of Mephistopheles. Mephistopheles: "What the?!" One of the men appeared to be the leader, he speaks to Mephistopheles. Strange man: "Hmmmm, this, this is a decoy, hah, think we fall for it huh?" He then speaks to his company. Strange man: "Find the real mayor and take the rune, I'll deal with this one." Hooded figures: "Yes sir." They dissapear instantly. The decoy man starts to run and escapes the scene. The hooded figures appear in the basement where gamemaniac and Tsukasa were guarding the mayor. gamemaniac: "What? they skipped Mephistopheles?" Tsukasa: "That was teleport, a very useful magic, this guys are no joke." -Fight starts, ummm, gamemaniac, since you are making the tables, switch you position in front of Tsukasa (gamemaniac in A3 and Tsukasa in B3), I mean, we did split up, it wasn't part of the main plan, next time, if we split me make the positions again- Insert tables here Hooded assasin in D1 and D3 Hooded assasin staus: Level: 5 HP: 50 Attack 1: 15 + 12 Death attack DC: 7 Defense: 4 Saving throw: 7 Speed: 15 Hooded assasin in D1 attacks gamemaniac: (15 + 12 - 6 = 21) gamemaniac saves VS paralysis: (7 vs DC 7 = SAVE) Hooded assasin in D3 attacks gamemaniac: (15 + 12 - 6 = 21) gamemaniac saves VS paralysis: (7 vs DC 7 = SAVE) gamemaniac attacks Hooded assasin in D3: (14 + 12 - 4 = 22) Hooded assasin in D3 saves VS paralysis: (7 vs DC 7 = SAVE) gamemaniac attacks Hooded assasin in D3: (14 + 12 - 4 = 22) Hooded assasin in D3 saves VS paralysis: (7 vs DC 7 = SAVE) Tsukasa attacks Hooded assasin in D3: (10) Hooded assasin in D3 dies Current: gamemaniac: 23/65 Tsukasa: 18/18 Hooded assasin in D1: 50/50 Hooded assasin in D3: 0/50 gamemaniac attacks Hooded assasin in D1: (14 + 12 - 4 = 22) Hooded assasin in D1 saves VS paralysis: (7 vs DC 7 = SAVE) gamemaniac attacks Hooded assasin in D1: (14 + 12 - 4 = 22) Hooded assasin in D1 saves VS paralysis: (7 vs DC 7 = SAVE) Hooded assasin in D1 attacks gamemaniac: (15 + 12 - 6 = 21) gamemaniac saves VS paralysis: (7 vs DC 7 = SAVE) Tsukasa attacks Hooded assasin in D1: (10) Hooded assasin in D3 dies gamemaniac gains 65 XP gamemaniac reaches level 6 Tsukasa gains 65 XP Tsukasa reaches level 3

Meanwhile, Mephistopheles gets the leader of the thieves........ Strange man: "Finally, I never thought I would see you in a place like this, traitor." Mephistopheles: "Huh? who are you? and who did I betrayed?" Strange man: "You surely don't know, that's why you're a traitor, you forgot....." Mephistopheles: "Do I know you from somewhere?" Strange man: "Well, quite a time has passed, and I have grown....... whatever, you will pay for escaping and leaving us behind in that hell dimension!" Mephistopheles: "No way...." Strange man: "You were supposed to be our guardian, and because you left, Nkhas, Chelum, Mirtos and Kalev are dead! I'm the only one that survived, it still was not a pleasant life." Mephistopheles: "Neru? impossible" Neru: "Yes, it's me, and I have trained a lot to survive, no thanks to you, traitor" Mephistopheles: "I see this battle is unavoidable, but how did you got here, and why do you want the runes of Korothar? Neru: "A lot has happened since you left Quor-Toth, after you destroyed the Fortress of Doom and killed the Sinistrals, you just escaped using the mirror of souls, but we were still there, and the Sinistral's position was taken by my master, Lord Murdoc. He is the greatest sorcerer of all, he brought me here to gather the runes." Mephistopheles: "Quor-Toth lies in another dimension, it took me everything I had to leave that place, and he sent you here? he's sure quite strong, but why does he wants the runes?" Neru: "I've heard the legends, bah, the runes don't give power, humans are so predictible, if the runes are destroyed, all dimensional planes will gather into one, the runes were created in ancient time for that purpose, to separate deimension, we will just join them back." Mephistopheles: "I can't allow that." Neru in D2 and Mephistopheles in A2 Neru's staus: Level: ? Attack 1: 95 Attack 2: 90 Defense: 35 Saving throw: ? Speed: 10 Mephistopheles attacks Neru: (16 - 35 = No damage) (1) Neru attacks Mephistopheles: (95 - 14 = 81) Mephistopheles dies. Neru: "Pathetic, once the Guardian of Babel Tower and the destroyer of the Sinistrals is now a petty mercenary, how useless." Mephistopheles: "arg.... cough......" Neru: "Anyway, my master should know about you..... we will see again."

Well, ....I thik I need to Heal .... I'll use an elixir.
What do you think Tsukasa. Do you think it's safe now? Should we all go see how is Mephistopheles doing up there? Maybe they are still fighting. We could help him.
