Two issues with how you're handling the fight with the toad monsters, Rainbow. The first is that I was under the impression that Blake went through the hole in the wall that the first toad made, while Barda blocked it with his body so the toad then couldn't go out there after him and was forced to focus Barda. Therefore leaving Blake in the hallway and Barda inside the room.

The second issue is that... Well, the toads don't seem to be doing anything while Barda and Blake walk all over them. Most egregious is the part about Blake CLIMBING onto the toad and stabbing it in the eye, while it apparently stands there and takes it while doing nothing with its toothy maw or knife-like claws, just having some sort of shoulder barging war with Barda over and over again.

This isn't to say "YOU MUST TAKE HORRIBLE FATAL WOUNDS" but, consider Quick5ilvr's fight for example. It was quick and brutal, he took wounds despite being fully armed and armored, though still managed to bring down the toad. Barda has avoided all harm with no clothes on while defending an unarmed, untrained civilian - against now two toad monsters at the same time which were coming from two different directions.

There's something I would like to address as well, from earlier in the fight.

It received Barda's claymore in it's gut, as a consequence. Barda then did an vertical uppercut with his blade, opening the wound even further, though Barda was unnerved at just how tough the creature's skin was.


If this toad is so tough, then it should be impossible to do an uppercut like that while your blade is still inside it. Swords are not lightsabers, and they will almost always get stuck in the enemy's flesh or bones after a successful stab. After you stab something, your next course of action should be to twist the blade (preventing the flesh from gripping it) so you can pull it free.

Got it, guys, thanks. I ( and as an extension, Barda) are so focused on keeping Blake alive, that I am ignoring my own posts. Not cool, I take it. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

I forgot to complain about something. Anyways, has anyone heard of Jordan Peterson's new website? It claims to be a 'free speech' site, it at least costs $2.50 just to post on, and it costs a whopping hundred and twenty dollars to read post from Jordan himself. Oh, and he also banned memes, because banning memes is so freedom of speech. What a twit. I don't know why anyone would bother supporting such a website. I also haven't heard much from his fake university down in the States XD just goes to show you how cultic fanbases can be, it's crazy!

In moments like these, I am glad and grateful to be here. We're not part of any major site or role-play group, but it's good enough. Better to be small and free.

I am rather lost in Vampyro. What exactly is going on? We went from the threat of a dragon to a forest fire, or did I misunderstand something?


It's part of Vyras' plan. To escape the dragon, who is blind, he is masking the scent of the human prisoners who still smell like humans from a dragon likely trained to recognize a vampire's scent. Once in the forest Vyras is going to set the dead trees on fire and everyone is going to run for their lives from the flames, which will cut off the vampire pursuers from the trail of the prisoners... At least for a while. =)


I thought I made this clear in my post for Vyras… =/
