QUOTE(jack cloudy @ Aug 31 2007, 04:28 PM)  While some are turning into wherewolves, others are discussing leadership, one is taking charge, two are trying to escape a Silhouette-infested district and two others are trying to get into the same district, Flint is going to forge himself a new weapon.
I've already got a plan but I want to run it by you first. Aleatoire (French for random.): Type: Staff Materials: varied visual: Long, smooth, no ornamentation. Looks rather plain if it wasn’t for the fact that it reflects light in just about all the colours of the rainbow. Durability: Between glass and Ebony. More due to being flexible than being really tough. It bends with the blows so to speak. Effectiveness as a weapon: Low damage but long reach. Also quite light so fast motions are possible. Enchantments: Standard Flint-style Telekinetic bolts. But due to lingering enchantments from some of the weapons used in its construction, the Aleatoire sometimes behaves completely unpredictable. Possible reactions go from wimping out to over the top destruction. I suggest rolling a die each time I post Flint using it. I’m sure I can find one somewhere.
First roll: 1: Random reaction, roll a second time. 2: Normal, staff works as advertised. 3: Normal, staff works as advertised. 4: Normal, staff works as advertised. 5: Normal, staff works as advertised. 6: Random reaction, roll a second time. (So 2 out of 6 times the staff goes weird. Or in other words, 33% chance at funny stuff.)
Second roll: 1: Wimps out and jumps out of Flint’s hands. 2: Wimps out, heals target and fortifies its strength temporarily. (Ok, unless you’re gambling, I do not suggest using this staff as a healing tool. It’s too risky.) 3: Big flash of light. Blinds anyone stupid enough to have his/her/its eyes open. This includes Flint. 4: Projects a dome of dispel within five metres for a single moment. (Just long enough to wipe out any magical effects occurring at that time.) 5: Streams of lightning pour from the staff. Flint gets hit as well. (ouch.) 6: Really big explosion. Very similar to Fervus’ old staff. (Ya know, the one that wiped out the Valus mountain.)
Too weak, too uber? Think some other effects work better? Feel free to comment. I think the high levels are a bit too much and might need some tinkering.
1. probably a bit too uber. 2. maybe instead of rolling dice, you should just choose whatever reaction fits the rp best.

Or else Green-Root.
Maybe both? Green-Root tells Patholos he shouldn't do it cause Rann is more valuable to them alive than dead. (Due to his link to Altair/Veric. If Rann is alive, the Narza'tai can use him to keep an eye on the Breton.) He'll tell Patholos to choose between his personal cause or the cause of the Narza'tai. I'll have Vasha agree. (Though she'll agree only because she considers Rann a possible threat to Patholos and decides to play along with Green-Root's 'bluff'.)
While that is going on, Sathyana can knock Patholos down with a simple non-lethal spell or something. Or she could simply drag Rann out of there. While you have the chance, Minque. Feel free to try to talk some sense into Rann. He's picking more fights than he can handle.
As for Aleatoire, Ok, I'll make it act crazy whenever it works in the plot. As for the effects, I'll remove 4, 5 and 6. Here are the replacements. 4: Turn undead in a five metre radius for a moment. Just long enough to make all freeze in their movements for a split second. (except high-level like vampires, Liches and Mannimarco. They simply shrug it off.) 5: Burden on self. Simply put, Flint will have to drop the staff and make sure it doesn't fall on his toes. 6: Everything nearby (2 metres maximum.) get's thrown into the air. Heavy stuff won't move much. Lighter stuff like Flint, will leap like one floor up.
This better?
