Galhar's Final Stand

[Brent 281]

((You thought he was dead, but thanks to some certain Dwarf with a certain shovel, I will no longer have Galhar dead. *cough cough* Grabthar...))

[Arbrek the Ancient 140]

((Good, if slightly anti-climactic. I'm gonna miss him! What are your plans now?))

[Brent 281]

((Hmm... *looks at his member title. Yep, I know exactly what I'm going to do. I'll just make a new character when/if I get back.))

[Phelrin 60]

*Talks to the messanger bringing the news of his death*

I hope they burned the body this time....

[Brent 281]

They couldn't have burned it. They were all burned themselves.

[Phelrin 60]

They couldn't have burned it. They were all burned themselves.

I hope someone else found it, and burned it out of impulse

[Brent 281]

Well then, they'd have to climb down that huge cliff.

((What if I somehow bring Craglode back?))

[no longer active 734]

So he is dead for good now?

[Brent 281]

I don't think the monks would be foolish enough to bring him back a second time.

[Arbrek the Ancient 140]

Well then, they'd have to climb down that huge cliff.

((What if I somehow bring Craglode back?))

((DO IT!))

((I don't mean to rain on your spectacular death scene... but Flint and Steel in RP only produces a spark that takes nearly a minute to create a good sized flame. The minecraft mechanics don't show this, but it would have been impossible to light them all on fire in that quick of a motion, pulling the item from your bag, whilst dieing, and falling over a cliff with a sword in your chest realistically. Lol. Just saying.))

[Brent 281]

((Shhh do you want him dead or not? I can easily turn this topic into something else. If the area around them was all tall grass, it would all set on fire.

((Edit: Pyromaniac= has flint and steel with him all the time. He could do it hidden while they were about to kill him. Arguement. Started.))

[no longer active 734]

((As long as he is dead it's fine right?))

[Grabthar 185]

((Accepted: A flint and Steel requires 2 hands, and quick strokes against each other to use. On average it takes 4 to 8 strokes by someone adept at using it. Lets say since your a pro, you manage to get it on the 4th try. That is equivalent to between 3 and 4 seconds if yer lucky. Now lets add 3 seconds to this since you HAD to get the flint and steel from you pocket in the first place. You yourself stated that you tightened your HANDS around the sword, thereby suggesting that you had no flint and steel in them at the time. So far that's 7-8 seconds time of you hanging in the air over the edge of this cliff with a sword in your chest. Also, should you manage to produce a spark, it would require something extremely flammable to ignite within a few inches. Generally a flint and steel is used to light a small dry pad of moss by striking repeatedly while almost touching it. But if you did manage to start the grass on fire, at that point a simple kick of dirt by any of the numerous men chasing you would be sufficient to put out the tiny flame. Roaring fires take time :).

Lets say.. that you manage to miraculously defy gravity long enough to get and use the flint and steel. Then you are lucky enough to be close enough to the tall dry grass that a single spark catches and a fire is started. Then the Gods have favored you enough that they transform the tiny spark into an incinerating blaze instantly. Then your death is so remarkable that the men chasing you ignore the fire just to watch you die, causing them to burn to death. If all these things happen, why would you kill your character? Obviously his is amazingly powerful, lucky, and renown that it would be silly to let him die from something like a sword to the chest and a fall from a cliff. Maybe you should rethink this as they never gathered yer body. ;)

PS... I never interacted with your character, but if Mili wants you dead so bad... I say keep him alive lol))

((Wow, lol, Galhar is no longer dead, way to go Grabthar~))
