Boil them in soup after you've finished.

"Let's get ta fightin'!"

If you can get the second reference you get a cookie.

I think that was 4 votes for fight.

As the Ice Barbarian scout is on skis, you will only be able to fight one round of combat before the momentum of his attack carries him past you.

Ice Barbarian Scout: COMBAT SKILL 20 ENDURANCE 28

If you sustain a higher ENDURANCE point loss than the enemy in this one round of combat, turn to 165.

If the Ice Barbarian scout loses more ENDURANCE points than you in this one round of combat, turn to 271.

If you both lose exactly the same number of ENDURANCE points in this one round of combat, turn to 337.

Shouldn't be too hard.

CR = 26-20 = 6

Our E total = 23/23

Ice Barbarian Scout's E total = 28/28

Round 1

Random number = 1 (oh, no)

We take 4 damage = 19/23

Ice Barbarian Scout takes 6 damage = 22/28

Wait what? We actually had a high enough CR to be guaranteed to deal more damage than we took!

271

Your attack has caused the Ice Barbarian scout to lose his balance. He tumbles in a flurry of snow and broken skis. The fur-clad child rolls clear of his father’s backpack and lies face downwards in the snow, less, than ten feet away.

The Ice Barbarian scout is badly dazed by the fall, but is already attempting to stagger to his feet.

If you wish to attack the Ice Barbarian scout before he fully regains his senses, turn to 241.

If you wish to grab the child as a hostage and try to escape, turn to 262.

Decisions, decisions...

Kill kill kill

Hmm... I don't know much about these peoples culture. For all we know they couldn't care less about the wellbeing of their children. Then again parents tend to look after their young, there is also an army of them coming down the hills so I suggest that taking the child hostage is our best course of action.

Get the child.

[CowsGoMoo 267]

. . .

And by 'choppa', I mean baby.

[Lupus 14]

Mind if I join in?

If not the kid as hostage is course most likley to let you out alive.

[pi4t 6]

Sure, come on in! Better make sure I don't get confused between my C key (for LuCas) and my P key (for LuPus), though...

[James Undercroft 129]

Haha, indubitably!

*Puts on a second monocle*

[Lupus 14]

Haha, indubitably!

*Puts on a second monocle*

*shocked face*

"Egads good sir. Two monocles, are you mad!?"

No no dear boy one will suffice. Come now *adjusts monocle* let's be Gentelmen about this.

[pi4t 6]

Sorry about the long wait, I was waiting for Darkjames to post.

Hostage time!

262

The child kicks and bites at your arm like a wild animal.

If you possess the Kai Discipline of Sixth Sense, turn to 71.

Otherwise, pick a number from the Random Number Table to see if you manage to hang on to him.

If the number you have picked is 0–6, turn to 320.

If the number you have picked is 7–9, turn to 140.

We have Sixth Sense!

H+1 21/23

71

You can sense that the Ice Barbarian child has a bone dagger hidden in his boot. He is trying to reach it so that he can attack you.

Forewarned by your Kai sense, turn to 320.

Not very nice, is he? I guess this means that forewarned is foredisarmed.

_{Sorry, that was a terrible joke. *hangs head in shame*}

H+1 22/23

320

You manage to hang on to the struggling child, and remove a bone dagger from his boot to prevent him stabbing you in the back.

The Ice Barbarians have drawn themselves up into a circle around you, but they dare not attack while you are holding one of their children as a hostage. Holding the bone dagger to the child’s throat, you slowly inch your way towards the sledge. You soon realize that you will never be able to outdistance them on a loaded sledge. You will have to think of something—and quickly.

If you wish to cut the equipment loose, free the Ice Barbarian child, and escape on the unloaded sledge, turn to 190.

If you wish to cut loose the equipment but keep the boy with you as a hostage during your escape, turn to 33.

So, are we keeping the kidnapped boy, or giving him back?

H+1 23/23

[James Undercroft 129]

Keeping the child = they will murder us with unprecedented ferosity.

Giving him back = WE CAN GTFO!

I say give him back :)

[Lupus 14]

Hmm a bunch of angry men armed with small children and arrows.

I say we cut off the extra weight and dropkick the kid back to the barbarians.

[CowsGoMoo 267]

Run with the child!

They won't DARE shoot as us, and we can raise him to be our little servant.

Yess..... a servant...

[Hiebe 2493]

Kept him lol
