This should be interesting. I will follow along with everyone else since I'm in the minority anyway.

(309) You begin chasing D"Onoffrio around the couch. The young woman bursts into a fit of laughter, clapping her hands in glee. You run, stop, and reverse your course; D"Onoffrio runs around, over, and along the couch. You are beginning to feel rather silly. At that moment, a small blade whistles through the air and embeds itself in your side. Lose 3 Stamina points. Grimacing in pain, you pull it out. Pravemi, who you should have attacked immediately, steps towards you with murder in his eyes. Go to 267. (267) Pravemi strides confidently towards you, brandishing his blade. You stand to receive his onslaught. Resolve the battle. Pravemi: Skill 10 Stamina 15 Note the following: D"Onoffrio, coward that he is, will leap in and aid his master every other round. Note that he has a SKILL of 9. In these instances, you must defend against both of them. If either one rolls a higher attack strength than you, then you are wounded as normal. If you beat both of them, you wound Pravemi in the normal way. If you bring Pravemi's Stamina down to 4 or less, stop fighting and go immediately to 384.

(384) "D"Onoffrio," rasps Pravemi, reeling from your latest blow, 'summon the brothers!" D"Onoffrio turns and runs towards the door. Pravemi leaps at you with grim determination. You"re not sure how many "brothers" are in the house, but something tells you that you must stop D"Onoffrio from getting help. What will do? Use a wooden box if you have one? (190) Throw your weapon at D"Onoffrio, if you have one? (327) Decide that what matters most is disposing of Pravemi, and turn your attention to him? (239). |

This has turned out to be comical. I agree with what has been said without the emphasis on aiming for his head. I will have to start watching you with a different eye Beowolf.

(327) You spin around and fling your blade at D"Onoffrio's fleeing form. It flies through the air end over end, and he yelps in pain as it lands in his shoulder. He staggers out the door and disappears. Pravemi is on you again and you must defend yourself. Go to 239. (239) Pravemi is rapidly approaching the end of his life. He fights grimly, silently, his face expressionless. Finally, you land the killing blow and he slumps to the ground. You fall to your knees, tired but ecstatic that you"ve managed to kill the master of the house. Looking up, you once again spot the lovely young woman, still sitting on the couch, whom you had forgotten about. A faint smile traces the corner of her lips. "Who are -" your question is cut short by the sound of the door crashing open. D"Onoffrio reappears, followed by men in black cloaks and hoods that flood into the room in seemingly endless numbers. You fight valiantly, but are soon overwhelmed. You may have killed Pravemi, but unfortunately you won't live to tell anyone about it. |
