INTERACTIVE BATTLE TOURNAMENT#4 - STAGE FIVE FIGHT

in contest •  7 years ago  (edited)

Stage Five


Now you have to wade through a bog (Stage Five), but you are filled  with hope as you can see the ocean on the far side and an Evil looking Castle across the sea in the very far distance - surely some insane loot is in there just waiting for you to take it!

As you try not to get mud on your lovely battle garments,  you wonder what manner of creature could possibly attack you here? I mean there is nothing around for miles, just bog!...

Your nearly though to the beach when you hear a screech - crickey! it's another dragon, this time it's BIG!. 

As it cruises overhead it unexpectedly sneezes something out and flys away. The green looking shiny thing seems to be falling in your direction!


                   

It lands with a thud in the mud, Oh man, that's one ugly.....green thing?

The strange creature is angry, but seems to be mumbling something about being cheated by @doughtaker in a video poker game and seeking revenge..??? 

The green thing wants someone to pay and it might as well be you, it has an attack of 3 (You must score a hit of 3 or more to win this Stage).

Special field info for this Stage (check for your class): Magic and Brawn won't remove this  bogey monster..but a well aimed arrow might! 

Warrior: Player has -1 to hit

Wizard: Player has -1 to hit

Archer: Player has +2 to hit

Game Instructions

You need to self manage your character, you have 3 life points (3 attempts) to defeat the foe:

-Here is a heart image that you can use to show your current life count

 - It is hoped in a future IBT this process can be automated, but for now it is a manual DIY process.

Find Detailed Bot instructions here 

Quick Summary of attack Commands per class are:

Archer attack: !sendanarrow or !sendabunchofarrows 

Warrior attack: !mightystab or !mightyslash

Wizard attack:!magiczap or !magicblast

 

To pick a foes pocket before they are dead:

!picksomepockets 

You need to calculate if you won the fight or not? If you won in the first attempt, you will win Steem! and you just need to keep an eye on the campaign map to see when the next stage is ready and you can move on. 

If you didn't you lose a life and may try again or just wait for the next Stage - it's totally up to you :)

To calculate your true damage you need to add/remove from the bot provided hit points number any positive/negative effects from any items you currently have or any other special field effects listed

Remember: This is a work in progress and you are supporting the work by playing and providing in the field testing :)

HAve a great time!

And the reason this green creature has a strength rating of 3 is because he's really, really stupid. Video poker is played as a solo game. There are only two circumstances in which people can even "compete" against each other: (1) a linked bank of progressive machines, or (2) a combination of game and promotion that is so good that there are more players wanting to play that particular game than the casino has machines with said game.

It's pretty much impossible for players to cheat each other at video poker. Now casinos and operators cheating the players -- that's a different story, because it has happened in the past.

Haha interesting in game trivia...Yep! I didn't say he was the brightest star

Salty Yellow Wizard



Is getting too old for this shit...

!magicblast

You gather your inner energy and produce a lightning bolt:
lightning
What the actual flying duck? You produce a lightning bolt so powerful it turns into a dragon - the Mother of all lightning spells! - You unleash it on your enemy with full force and watch as your foe gets annihilated with a 12 point hit!!! Youre a Wizard, Harry...wait no, you said you were Tom? Gasp

Haha old yellow knows how to party

The beauty of the forest and the gradure of the mountains seem quite distant and easily forgettable. Finally, yet very regrettably, the bathroom was theoretically... everywhere now.

Angel Food takes advantage of this dynamic. Wadding ankle deep through this muck reminded Angel Food of an even farther removed time than the previous episodes of this journey. He recalled another time when green goo and swamp like conditions occupyied the lowest chamber of his once home and spaceship, now referred to as "the moon."

Angel Food's relentless day dreaming is suddenly interrupted by a beast's roar! "Caught with pants down again!? What n..."

Angel Food simultaneously looks around for the sound and then looks up when the hairs in his back detect a shadow of something above. He finally glances up. Seeing a large dragon suddenly filled him with regret, but then a projectile from the dragon struck Angel Food with a confusion that almost brought relief... until he realized what it actually was that the Dragon had ejected.
Just as Angel Food wondered what possible plot or motive could have cause a beast to eject another beast upon him, he found the horrid new beast stomping and splashing towards him.

❤️❤️❤️ Angel Food takes a characteristic deep breath...

!magicblast

You tune-in deeply to your inner chakras and summon a lightning bolt.
lightning
The lightning is out of control though and hits some innocent civilians who happen to be walking by. A mob of peasants gathers around and shove that naughty wand up your A..and you are a dead magician now. You lose a life, Harry.

"WHAT THE..." Angel Food begins to run and trips on something out of site under the bog's juice. The pesents get the hand on Angel Food for a second time. "Ouch! Sodomized again!? As the mob backs away, one can see a familiar glow emanating from the middle of the mob. The green monster is watching intently. The green monster enjoyed the barbaric rape of the strange wizard and felt it to be a good time to touch his monsters genitalia. The Angel Food's eyes are bright red...

❤️❤️

!magicblast

You gather your inner energy and produce a lightning bolt:
lightning
Unfortunately you were standing in a puddle of water and electrocute yourself..Lol you are the worst magician ever and you should feel bad. I mean cmon - a puddle?! You lose a life, you big goof.

"Stupid puddle!" Angel Food scrambles away when a new found agility and manages to climb a tree. "This entire bog is a puddle!" The definition of bog is true, but the definition of tree is stretched very thin here. Angel Food looked more like a seagull ontop of a spire's flag.
Angel Food poised himself again. He wonders if maybe the full magic blast attach is inappropriate...

!magicblast

Slotherin Wizard don't mind: Come here Green Boogeyman, I will warm you up with a nice little fireball

!magiczap

You perform a quick fireball attack:
fireball
Your fireball seems to work, as it burns the enemy with a hit of 3 point. Its a good start. You have still much to learn, young Padawan.

I take it :D And the Boogeyman has learned that Wizard Sloths are better left in peace! :)

I don't see an active item. That means your roll was:
3 - 1(wizard modifier on this stage) = 2 (FAIL)

Try again, you still have 2 life points for this stage.

Yep @doughtaker is on the ball :) Come on show us some muscle hehe

Hurry up slotherin! I've already smoked this green gunk.

Haha Wt? still not had his shot...I think our IBT bot maker needs some encouragement

COME ON Slotherin Wizard, we all believe in you!!! ZAP that green turd!

Haha you guys blushes

!magiczap

You perform a quick fireball attack:
fireball
Your fireball looks pretty magical as it flys through the air making fancy swirls - where will it hit? Impossible to predict its trajectory - but it burns the enemy with a hit of 5 points. Hocus Pocus, Mothaf****r!

Dam strait

A deceptively easy foe?

!mightyslash

You draw your sword and perform a powerful swing:
slash
The sword slips out of your hand and hits a rock. Ha! A rookie mistake....but the battlefield does not forgive. The enemy leaps towards you with two big steps and sinks his sword into your chest. Without any mercy he watches you slowly sink to the ground as you exhale your last breath. You lose a life point.

u8JmcBz.jpg

!mightyslash

You draw your sword and perform a powerful overhead swing:
slash
You completely miss the enemy, leaving yourself open to his attack. No second invitation is needed - the enemy finishes you off quickly, and chuckles at your weak moves. Lol, you are an idiot. You lose a life point.

giphy.gif

!mightystab

You draw and swing with your sword:
stab
You hit like a small child and the attack is easily deflected. You fool! Underestimating your foe is no way to victory! The enemy bursts out laughing. Gobbo observes the scene unfolding, well hidden in a nearby bush. He rushes over to finish you off @gobbo

Gobbo makes his best attack.
He laughs like a jerk.

The sneaky git hits for a 6.

It is simply the mucus of the boss.

A loud crash and a flash of light fills the room as the green thing reels from Johan the Magnificent who strides forward in his enchanted armor.

Prepare to die scum!

!mightyslash

You draw your sword slowly but determinedly and try to attack from the back:
slash
Wow, you little sneak! You took the enemy off-guard and totally sliced that shit up! You land a hit of 10 points, you ninja!

10 - 2 = 8

blessed be thy mightyslash

Your class modifier on this stage was only -1, not -2... not that it would have mattered. Congrats.

Yeah i was just trying to be modest :P

Back from there blast, Team Rocket licks there wounds (especiallly Meowth)

Poison Sting on the snot glob...

!sendanarrow

You draw an arrow and shoot:
arrow
Its not the best shot ever, but hopefully no-one is watching. You pierce the enemy for a hit of 3 points

The poison suprisingly works on the creature, must be a grass type?

Meowth sings a song to commemorate the victory!

Yay!!! Meowth has got the skills

Apparently the green creep is so dumb that it can't see Chick Norris even after hearing his battle cry... and just as the case would be if the opponent was Chuck Norris patiently waiting, the creep may be just seconds away from death.

Chick Norris has 3 life points.

!picksomepockets

Look at that! Obtained item 5: Grub! +2 to players hit!

Grub.jpg

!mightystab

You draw and swing your sword:
stab
The years of practice with a wooden knifey boi are not lost on you! Eager for your first blood you strike well and the enemy takes damage, with a hit of 4 points. Senpai, notice me!

4 + 2 (grub) - 1 (stage/class rule) = 5 (PASS)

Chick Norris does a celebratory jumpkick after another one-hit kill.

Hahah go chick, nice jump!!

Pssst, message in item shop for ya :)

ZOOL the dragon-slayer wizard-shamer decides to use the weapon from the movie Krull to dispatch this impudent green snotling - just because

!picksomepockets

Lucky you! Obtained item 2: Dagger! +1 to players hit!

Dagger.jpg

!mightystab

Time to Attack:
stab
All these years, all the practice, all the sweat and pain have been leading up to this moment of...perfection. You lean back, let the calm become one with you as you appear to rest....then you swiftly swing your sword and perform a legendary dragonslayer combo. Your moves are so fast, the enemy does not see you coming - and so powerful, you deliver a devastating hit of 6 points. Teach us your ways, Senpai.

ZOOL the dragon-slayer wizard-shamer-snotling-throttler staggers from the battle - strutting so hard - steps on a shell and falls badly - cracking his head open on a rock and dying instantly........nah just joking

Oh man, what drugs you on...seriously I'm interested

ZOOL's strange style, devastating hit and great taste in movies, qualifies you for a trophy token..unfortunately I got tech issues, so instead you may have an item from the shop for the next round.

Dragon boogies??? arghhhh where be me tissues to wipe up this slimy mess!

I dare not try to pick its pockets... I go right for the kill!

!mightystab

You draw and swing your sword:
stab
Wow! It almost looks like you know what you are doing lol. Suprised, the enemy is damaged with a hit of 5 points. Fake it till you make it, as they say.

take that slimy scum! Never mess with the likes of meeeeeeee!

Capt'n Dreemsteem flicks away the snotty slob and does a special dance.

what dance, you ask?

A boogie, of course.

Oh man...

hahahahahahahaha come on - that was hilarious LOLOLOLOL

Raktan the Orc Archer
IMG_1737.jpg

Health:
healthhealthhealth

Raktan the Orc Archer is too close to removing the blood from his shoes to give this foe much attention. He sees his freshly cleaned crossbow and sighs.

"I'll not have you fouling up my crossbow!"

Raktan takes a bolt from his quiver and attempts to throw it at the horrible beast.

!sendanarrow

You draw an arrow and shoot:
arrow
The bow makes a strange sound as the arrow launches, as if the string nearly breaks, but you clip the foe for a hit of 2 points!

2 + 2 archer bonus = 4 (3 required)

Success!

"Oh! Juuuuust great! Now my bolt is bent! And I got blood on my good tunic! Can this day get any worse?"

Raktan begins looting the fresh corpse, looking for cleaning materials.

Haha, Damn! have to use Steem to pay dry cleaning bill

This should be an easy one! Injoker summons Forge Spirits once again to fight for him while he enjoys his cup of hot chocolate.
Life: ♥ ♥ ♥

!picksomepockets

Oops! Obtained item 12: Key! +2 points to enemy hit!

Key.jpg

chokes on hot chocolate
Now things are getting interesting!

!magicblast

You gather your inner energy and produce a lightning bolt:
lightening
The lightning strike hits true, and you do significate damage with a hit of 10! Also 10 points for Gryffindor!

Hah! 10 basic attack, -1 for being a great wizard, -2 from Key. That's still a 7! Take that ugly green thing! Luck might not be on my side but I'm still a powerful wizard!
Life: ♥ ♥ ♥

Fried green stuff hehe

Lady P selects her best parasol for the job of effectively avoiding further suspect greenery falling from the sky, and with her prepares to do battle once more.

Haha nice, came prepared as always

!sendanarrow

You draw an arrow and shoot:
arrow
The string breaks (oops!) as the arrow is released and it bounces off the enemy harmlessly. Gobbo happens to be walking by at the time and wets himself in laughter, and seeing your skills are low he attacks. @gobbo

Gobbo makes his best attack.
He laughs like a jerk.

The sneaky git hits for a 6.

Lady P does not like Gobbo and ties her parasol to the back of him ...

Lol! come on you can do, it might attack that little guy!

!sendanarrow

You draw an arrow and shoot:
arrow
The string breaks (oops!) as the arrow is released and it bounces off the enemy harmlessly. Gobbo happens to be walking by at the time and wets himself in laughter, and seeing your skills are low he attacks. @gobbo

Doh you can only do a mighty/risky attack on gobbo. try again :)

!sendabunchofarrows

You load your bow with 3 arrows and shoot:
arrows
Noice! At least 2 of them fly in the right direction and deal some damage, its a hit of 8 points!

phew!
Lady P delicately dabs at her moist brow with a lace handkerchief.

Yay!!!!

That roll of 8 (+2) beats the Gobbo who rolled a 6. You may still pickpocket the defeated Gobbo and/or the green creep if you wish (you don't have to).

You have 3 lives and are still on your 1st attempt for this stage. You have not defeated the green creep yet.

let's do this HYPNO WIZARDWebp.net-gifmaker (1).gif

!picksomepockets

D-oh! Obtained item 9: Boots! -1 to players hit!

Boots.jpg

oh not again god damit why??? It's all up to you now please wizard you can do it

!magicblast

You gather your inner energy and produce a lightning bolt:
lightning
What the actual flying duck? You produce a lightning bolt so powerful it turns into a dragon - the Mother of all lightning spells! - You unleash it on your enemy with full force and watch as your foe gets annihilated with a 12 point hit!!! Youre a Wizard, Harry...wait no, you said you were Tom? Gasp

this so lucky!!! thank you wizard (#botcreator)
12-2-1=9 only need 3 so yeah great
still lifes left

12 - 1 (wizard) - 1 (boots) = 10. Nice job.

Remember that you get a fresh batch of 3 lives each stage, and items do not carry over unless they were bought from the shop. Shop-bought items must be declared to be activated before they can have any effect. Once activated, those items are lost at the end of the stage.

Haha nice job, too easy :)

Psyche Deloun is psyched! This looks like somthing that was regurgitated from my Ayahuasca brew! Lets see what you are made of.

!picksomepockets

Tough luck! Obtained item 11: Potion! -2 to players hit!

Potion.jpg

I knew there must be potion in there! Hmm, I thought these things usually make me stronger....what a bad trip.

!magicblast

You tune-in deeply to your inner chakras and summon a lightning bolt.
lightning
The lightning is out of control though and hits some innocent civilians who happen to be walking by. A mob of peasants gathers around and shove that naughty wand up your A..and you are a dead magician now. You lose a life, Harry.

Lousy peasents, I curse thy soul to eternal damnation!

!magicblast

Jeeeeeeez, you have to watch out with the lightning bolts, you aren't alone in the battlefield :D

Malakai chuckles to himself as he readys an arrow. At the last second he decides a bow is overkill and throws the arrow at the green thing.

@rollthedice

Shake shake shake, you roll the 6-sided die.

You rolled a 3.

Roll of 3, +2 for feild effect = 5, success.

On impact the arrow explodes. Malakai pushes foward as it rains little pieces of green thing in the area.

Serra Angel hovers high over the bog. She decided not to travel with the others because they keep greasing the handle of her enchanted sword Oblivion. Also she didn't want to get her boots dirty....

She slowly floats down to inspect this wretched creature. What is it? A dragon hair ball? A turd that floated up from the underworld? Whatever it is it needs to be put out of its misery.

!picksomepockets

@rolltwodice

You blow on two 6-sided dice, and throw:

First die lands...
You rolled a 2.

Second die lands...
You rolled a 2.

A damn shell? Serra should have known this gimp would only have useless items...

!mightyslash

@rollthedice

Shake shake shake, you roll the 6-sided die.

You rolled a 6.

(6x2-1)-1=10
Enemy's Hit =3
Victory!

The creature is instantly vaporized into green steam! A painless death.

That's more like it! Being able to actually grip a weapon properly makes such a difference. :)

Feeling pretty beaten down Lordroach thinks a nice easy target, or is it?

He prepares an arrow and does a casual shot, doesn't even try...

!sendanarrow

Time to attack:
arrow
Archer Hood - its a head shot! Your shot is so perfect, if anyone sees it, theyd know you are one bad dawg when equipped with a bow. You pierce the enemy for a hit of 6 points!

Wow! I should try less hard more often :)

@rollthedice

Shake shake shake, you roll the 6-sided die.

You rolled a 2.

Oh dear. Gendlin has to buy a heart! Tomorrow I'll see how to do it :)

Just a reminder, you always start each Stage with 3 hearts..
sorry its a bit confusing, it's a work in progress :)

Thanks, but don't I have to complete this stage with at least one heart? I don't remember why tho xD

No, 3 hearts (life points per round) but if you don't get through on first hit you miss out on the Stage prize - totally up to you if you want to play on or not for fun with your remaining two hearts (life points) or just move on to the next round :)

!magicblast
@rollthedice

Shake shake shake, you roll the 6-sided die.

You rolled a 4.

A win! 2 heart left. I didn't realize we start with 3 :D
