>You mock the bird by saying that phrase. It smirks. "Pretty mouthy for someone who ran like a small child from some of the weakest creatures in existence".

>...Ouch

SotiCoto · 2011-09-30 20:03:26

> Demurely flirt with firebird instead

IanExMachina · 2011-09-30 20:04:55

>Look at firebird to see if it resembles a chicken much.

SotiCoto · 2011-09-30 20:08:37

> Offer to preen its feathers for 10 silvers while showing off your plumage

Crimson · 2011-09-30 20:09:58

>Offer it the crystal fruit.

Icalasari · 2011-09-30 20:26:37

>"So, what is a hot bird like you doing here?"

>It laughs. "Oh, puns. Like I haven't heard THOSE before". As it speaks, you take a look at her. It doesn't resemble a chicken much. It has a slim body and small wings, so it clearly is at home in a forest. Which its wings can burn down. Speaking of which, the trees don't seem burnt at all.

>You have no silver, so you don't bother with the offer. You have no plumage to show off as you are not a bird

>You then offer it the fruit. It smiles - or does what passes as a smile for something with a beak - and digs in. "You aren't half bad for a human," it says between gulps

Crimson · 2011-09-30 20:32:09

>What's your name?

Icalasari · 2011-09-30 20:35:50

>"My name is Dre Hlneta, but you can call me Dre. Quite a pretty name for a girl such as myself, don't you think?". Well, now you know her sex

Crimson · 2011-09-30 20:58:33

>Speak to her about this forest and about the tiny crystal birds that kept attacking me.

Icalasari · 2011-09-30 22:42:22

>"This forest belongs to a megaflock of Crystal Birds, of which I am a more matured form of - I'm a Light Falcon. We don't like it when people invade our territory. Especially since they keep using fire on our flocks to hurt the Crystal Birds, and water spells on Light Falcons such as myself"

Crimson · 2011-09-30 22:47:31

>"People come here? Are there any towns nearby?"

Icalasari · 2011-09-30 23:49:17

>"Go west" She points to her right - your left "Until you hit a path, then go north. You'll hit a town after a while"

>The Crystal Birds attacked you when you were on a path though

Crimson · 2011-10-02 15:08:45

>"These birds are part of your flock, right? Can you get them to stop bothering me?"

Icalasari · 2011-10-02 15:45:35

>"Certainly. IF you can do a favour for me, that is..."

Crimson · 2011-10-02 15:46:20

>"I'm listening."

IanExMachina · 2011-10-02 17:00:11

>Ask if the bird has a doctorate.

Icalasari · 2011-10-02 17:06:50

>"Well, there is a dragon in some ruins south of here. It's a bit of a walk - several of these clearings worth of trees to climb through - but if you can get rid of the dragon, you can walk through the forest unhindered by us from now on and keep any loot in there. In the meantime, I'll hold back my flock for a week so you can get any supplies you may need from the town"

>"...What the hell is a doctorate?"

IanExMachina · 2011-10-02 17:11:51

>Agree to rid the bird of the dragon.

>Head to town to get supplies/look about.

Crimson · 2011-10-02 17:13:32

>Before leaving, ask if the dragon has a hoard of treasure.

Icalasari · 2011-10-02 23:27:55

>"Wonderful! Well, my flock will escort you out. And if you aren't back here in a week, they will track you down and drag you back!"

>"We don't know if there is a big treasure or not, but it's bound to have something hidden away. And if not, the ruins should still hold something - The dragon scared away any attempts to take treasure out"

>Your trip to the town is uneventful. You see several shops there, such as a weapon shop, a magic shop, a card shop, an inn, a grocery store, camping supplies... Too bad your money is so limited

>Store list:
-Cards
-Magic
-Weapons
-Armour
-Inn
-Food
-Books
-Camping
-Pharmacy

Crimson · 2011-10-03 00:56:58

>Check camping supplies for a bigger backpack.

Icalasari · 2011-10-03 08:37:06

>You check, but you have a backpack that rivals their largest ones (What did you expect from a pack that could fit enough items to surpass your own body weight?)

(As a note, I finally have a separate document for inventory, cards, and spells, so you can call them up at any time without issue now)

IanExMachina · 2011-10-03 18:45:48

>Check wallet again.

> Look in card shop.

Icalasari · 2011-10-03 19:27:37

>You have 500 coins. Who knows how much that could get you?

>The card shop is split up into four sections: Items, Weapons, Attacks, and Zones. Items are further split up by the kind of item card

IanExMachina · 2011-10-03 19:41:06

>Go look at Zones.

>Think about shoplifting.

Icalasari · 2011-10-04 00:29:06

>You look at zones. They are VERY expensive cards that alter the very area around you. You can summon a lush jungle in the middle of a desert, a large mountain in the middle of the sea, a beautiful beach in the middle of a city...

>You could shop lift, but the chances of making it out alive at your current level are slim

Crimson · 2011-10-04 09:30:10

>Look at weapons.

Icalasari · 2011-10-04 09:45:50

>The weapons range from cheap helmets - Somehow they count as weapon cards - to expensive phoenix feathers. Apparently weapons are more equips than anything. Nearly all of them boost either offensive or defensive capabilities, however

Icalasari · 2011-10-05 10:09:23

>Reminder one of three before shutdown

Crimson · 2011-10-06 00:09:43

>Look at attacks.

Howdy, Stranger!
