so the Telmori, in savage wolf form oblivious (& immune?)  to the glowspot's
effects, carry on their assault of the Lunar forces, forcing them to defend
themselves while the Sartarite forces retreat from the field of battle and
the oncoming bat. (?)

Karala will try to rally the wolf men into following her into a rapid, four
legged retreat at the last moment (maybe the axe might have some power over
the Changed Telmori?).

that should, as Nick suggested, leave the battered and heavily encumbered
Lunar forces as a frenzied Bat snack..

Well that's the plan....

The bat is normally under the control of the priesthood. My suggestion 
was that if you inflicted the bat with the Curse using the axe then they 
would probably lose control.

the foreign elves, to tell them where her roots lie, of the forest she
has planted and of her mission. She begs them to treat the Far Rider
as their guest and asks them the name of their great wood.

Aalmon tries to make out a little of what Icthya is saying through his 
strange magics but much of it is so alien that even if he understood the 
words their meaning was beyond him. Perplexed he restricts himself to a 
polite bow when the elf lady mentions his name.

"Aye, King Azhur, such thoughts have crossed my mind", grinned Bryoan.

"The Wind Children are indeed slow, with our God held in bondage by the
Moon. What can we do? On a good day I tell you that two of them could
carry a man up to that bat, axe and all! Today I would be surprised if
six could manage it"

"Today I fear that they would only be able to carry an slightly
overweight cat, and only then at great risk to themselves."

"With no solution forthcoming, my head says 'flee and save yourself',
but my heart says 'this is where the last of the Orlanthi stood; bravely
and against impossible odds'." He roars with laughter. "You may have
heard that we are a hearty people!"

OK, it's well about time you people received some Hero Points.. I
        understand that you're at starvation level!
        
        Wow, I think it's over twenty scenes. That's very, very bad of
        me. Ahem.
        I will be *much* more regular in future...
        
        These Hero Points constitute the equivalent of six-end of
        sessions and
        one start of session.
        
        (Note that sheer quantity of posts does not necessarily
        correlate to
        HPs, but it is there for illustrative purposes).
        
        Eurynome: 8 posts*, 2 Hero Points
        Karala, 30 posts, 11 Hero Points
        Icthya, 46 posts, 15 Hero Points
        Kalen, 9 posts, 5 Hero Points
        Aalmon, 42 posts, 14 Hero Points
        Anzhur, 108 posts, 21 Hero Points
        Jareena, 15 posts, 8 Hero Points
        Rikku, 34 posts, 11 Hero Points
        Serendipitous 12 posts, 6 Hero Points
        
        * Jackie has sadly had to drop out of play (fare well!) but I'm
        hoping
        to coax a replacement for the Lhankor Mhy explorer
        
        Now you can take on the Crimson Bat :)

Since OOC metagaming suggestions are allowed, here is mine...

If flying up is difficult, bring the thing down. Two ways to do this
are (1) bait of some description and (2) Ernaldan grounding magic.

Other options which don't rely on wind are to create mists/clouds and
run up the things and to do some Vinga-style
running/jumping/spearchucking

Final option is Wiley Coyote and his Big Rubber Band

p.s. Lev, could you send me the last version of Icthya's character
sheet you had? Ta.

OOC 
Isn't dwarf throwing an australian game ?
We give the axe to Kalen and throw him right on the place ? ;-)
My horse is very strong... :-D


To be honest I don't have a clue for this one.
My PC sheet has no clear option (not speaking of the amplitude of the skills needed,?at best at 1 mastery against several for the crimson bat...)
Heroquesting without time, ritual background and community support is useless
Our allies are windless...?that's killing all orlanthi magic option.
Malkioni miracle is out of our reach
and we are lacking heroic tricks like an Harrek the Berseck in our pocket or...
hummmm... may the Sunstorm artefact be of any use ? or is it also out of?order with a dead Orlanth ?

I fear that vanishing in the woods and leaving the heavy yelmalion hoplites in the plain?as an apetizer should be the best option.
not very successful for the Orlanthi, but are we orlanthi ? (yes partly, sh..!)
Could we trick the bat ? Leading it to eat the lunars?instead of?us ? after all we are not trapped or under siege...

The Sun and Sky should be unaffected, so use it to whip up a solar
storm (i.e. winds) for the wind children to use to fly.

In tune with my character's general state of mind may I point out that 
reaching the Bat is trivially simple. Simply walk in its direction 
looking like an Orlanthi and wait for one of its tongues/tentacles to 
reach you.

Reaching it and surviving to tell the tale is another matter entirely.

I suspect there are fanatics amongst the Heortlings who would not worry 
too much about this aspect of the problem - I'd check out the Uroxi 
first. In theory you could fight off the tongue with the axe (resist its 
tongue/tentacle attack with Axe skill?) but once the Bat goes berserk 
the only hope would be that it concentrates on the annoying priests on 
its back long enough to make an escape. Its not *quite* a suicide 
mission ;-)

As both Ernalda and Vinga worshippers are without their powers we're left with either the bait or Wile E. Coyote options...

Let's see. Heler apparantly still has his powers and has a Fly up to Clouds Feat. Any Heleri around?

Rotterex heads over to Kalen after a brief discussion with the Wind Children.? "Kalen, the wind children,? they say they can bring? me up to the bat.? As much as I dislike the? idea, it may be our only way.? If you would give me a grenade and explain to me how it works and the time before it explodes, I could place the grenade in the bats nose and get back before they explode.? Even a bat of this nature shouldn't be able to survive having it's brains blown out!"

"Aye, King Azhur, such thoughts have crossed my mind", grinned Bryoan.

"The Wind Children are indeed slow, with our God held in bondage by the
Moon. What can we do? On a good day I tell you that two of them could
carry a man up to that bat, axe and all! Today I would be surprised if
six could manage it"

"Today I fear that they would only be able to carry an slightly
overweight cat, and only then at great risk to themselves."

"With no solution forthcoming, my head says 'flee and save yourself',
but my heart says 'this is where the last of the Orlanthi stood; bravely
and against impossible odds'." He roars with laughter. "You may have
heard that we are a hearty people!"

Lev,

Do the usual limitations on buying multiple points at once apply or can 
we "spread" them over the 20 scenes or so?

OOC: !!! SHOCK !!!

In all my years of playing Glorantha-based games I don't think anyone
has ever made the suggestion of sending a grenade-armed rubble runner up
a nostril of the Crimson Bat for an explosive effect!

IC: The Wind Children agree, that Rotterex could indeed be carried that
far, although it would be extremely dangerous of course - as many
distractions as possible would be required. 

Kalen can give Rotterex some instructions on how to use the grenade,
although they would have to be whispered and the runner would have to
swear never to repeat them for it's a Dwarf-secret. "You would have
three seconds to get out once you pull the pin. Any more than that and
*boom*", the Mostal emphasises.

Heler, as the pantheon rain god and subordinate of Orlanth, I imagine would also be lacking in power..

Perhaps just the sort of distraction a grenade-armed rubble runner could
do with.

My mind is still doing circles over the idea :)

No, you can certainly spread them over the scenes.

That isn't really how I ever read this stuff. So Storm Bull, Lhankor
Mhy, Humakt, Elmal, Chalana Arroy, all without power?

That's not how I thought it worked. The members of the Storm Tribe who 
are not aspects of Orlanth or Ernalda did retain their magic AFAICS. It 
gets messy with subcults of course, as I recall a Helamakt initiate will 
retain their magic if they worship the subcult of Heler but not if they 
worship the subcult of Orlanth Thunderous.

Probably doesn't matter much - we seem to have no shortage of 
bonkers-mad plans to attempt!

Quite. Heler was a member of the Water Tribe, so...

OOC: !!! SHOCK !!!

In all my years of playing Glorantha-based games I don't think anyone
has ever made the suggestion of sending a grenade-armed rubble runner up
a nostril of the Crimson Bat for an explosive effect!

IC: The Wind Children agree, that Rotterex could indeed be carried that
far, although it would be extremely dangerous of course - as many
distractions as possible would be required. 

Kalen can give Rotterex some instructions on how to use the grenade,
although they would have to be whispered and the runner would have to
swear never to repeat them for it's a Dwarf-secret. "You would have
three seconds to get out once you pull the pin. Any more than that and
*boom*", the Mostal emphasises.

Rikku, who has witnessed a staggering variety of crazy plans in his time, is
for once in his life speechless.....

"You....wha....huh?? Wha?", Rikku paced back & forth. "Never in my time have
I seen such recklessness......yet I find it highly intriguing. As the
grenade explodes I shall fan the flames (Fire Rune Sight 20 - increased with
HP recently ;) ) to aide in defeating this large, albeit fascinating, beast.

Azhur glanced at Rotterex with a clear admiration:
- ?Surely, this is a pure lesson of humility: when all human beings around are looking for a way to save their own life, one animal stands up, ready to sacrifice its very own existence. Who would be able to speak without hesitation about the inferiority of Animals after that? Sense of Responsibility just appears with self-consciousness!?
?
He then addressed to the awaken rubble runner:
- ?If you have to go in such desperate action, I will bless you with the fourth secret of the Sparrow Hawk Order and one blessing of Saint Talor!?
?
?
[OOC1]
Using One-shot spell :
- Find Courage to Attack Bigger Than Self at 17 (a rubble runner vs the Crimson Bat: I think this is correct)
?
Using Saint Talor?s Blessings from the Red Banner
- Endless Warrior (no fatigue or incapacitation) at 15 (after HP improvement) (Could be useful to avoid bad effects of being wounded)
?
Azhur will spend 2 HP if necessary.
?
[OOC2]
HP purchases?(total expense = 17, reserve 5)
- Elected King of Seshnela +1 ( 1 HP for being accepted as King by the wise Minaryth Purple)
- Elected King of Seshnela +1 (1 HP for being allied to King Broyan)
- New Relationship : Friend of Broyan the Orlanthi King +1 (1 HP from the magical ritual)
- Use Scripture [Saint Talor?s Red Banner] +1 (6 HP for using non concentrated magic)
- New Common Magic ??Befriend Horses?? at 13 (2 HP from centaurs at the Wild Temple)
- Sword & Shield +1 (1 HP from previous battles)
- One Against Several Tactics +1 (1 HP from previous battles)
- Mounted Combat +1 (1 HP from previous battles)
- Relationship with SwordSinger +1 (1 HP from using him as interpret in Dragon Pass)
- Husband of Lady Marianne 2x +2 (2x 1HP from communicating with her through Aalmon?s star jewels)
?
I'm curious about the odds of this plan...

Rikku, who has witnessed a staggering variety of crazy plans in his time, is for once in his life speechless.....

"You....wha....huh?? Wha?", Rikku paced back & forth. "Never in my time have I seen such recklessness......yet I find it highly intriguing. As the grenade explodes I shall fan the flames (Fire Rune Sight 20 - increased with HP recently ;) )?to aide in defeating this large, albeit fascinating, beast. "

OOC: !!! SHOCK !!!

In all my years of playing Glorantha-based games I don't think anyone
has ever made the suggestion of sending a grenade-armed rubble runner up
a nostril of the Crimson Bat for an explosive effect!

IC: The Wind Children agree, that Rotterex could indeed be carried that
far, although it would be extremely dangerous of course - as many
distractions as possible would be required. 

Kalen can give Rotterex some instructions on how to use the grenade,
although they would have to be whispered and the runner would have to
swear never to repeat them for it's a Dwarf-secret. "You would have
three seconds to get out once you pull the pin. Any more than that and
*boom*", the Mostal emphasises.

[OOC]
I'm checking my HW supplement "Orlanth is dead!". it isn't my favorite, it tells me page 43 :

1. Orlanth and Ernalda cults and their sub-cults don't have magic.

2. Possible magic:
- Chalana Arroy, Elmal, Eurmal, Heler, Humakt, Issaries, Kolat, Lhankor Mhy and Odayla are major Deities with magic
- Ana Gor, Barntar, Brastalos, Donandar ( except 2 sub-cults) Engizi, Gustbran, Kero Fin, Maran, Pelaskos, Redalda, Rigsdal are minor Deities with magic

These pagan deities aren't relieable, convert to the one God, the Invisible God ;-)

Quite. Heler was a member of the Water Tribe, so...

Having seen the battle plans I think the whole party are successfully 
heroforming that one, or perhaps are temporary Disciples.

Or should that be the players rather than the characters :-0

[OOC]
Putting a NPC in front of the players... what a shame !

But I really can't find an other option.
Even simply waiting on the ground for the arrival of the Bat seems useless, if you're not driven mad, the tongue will certainly just take you alive and send your soul?directly to oblivion... I understand now perfectly why despair always precedes this demon...

Anyone has an idea to beef-up our little secret weapon ?
=> Could SwordSinger use his Saint Humact Magic (3W1) on Rotterex to make him more powerful or resistant ?

Rikku could probably justify adding a couple more rune sights to his
collection now and can do so with the extra HPs.

Chaos Sight would probably be a good one :)

I guess that depends on whether someone is willing to burn HP to buy 
eternal fame - and a chance of avoiding eternal oblivion. Resisting a 
tongue attack of 10W3 (or thereabouts) would seem pretty much at the 
harder end of possible. You could probably muster up +15-20 from 
equipment (the axe is a pretty good headstart) and there should be 
enough Uroxi, Humakti and the like about to muster up most of another 
+20 in magical augments if Broyan was convinced to get them to help out 
(the party can probably manage a respectable combined augment anyway). 
The Crimson Bat priests *could* counter by augmenting the bat but unless 
you turn up looking like a great Hero they are likely to be too busy 
worrying about other things - like all those berserk Telmori that need 
dealing with and of course trying to keep the bat under control so it 
eats the right army.

I think it looks more impossible that it really is - but the price of 
failure is definitely steep. Oh and there is no guarantee that the Curse 
is really as powerful as we think it is. Only Lev knows. I have to admit 
I mostly like the idea because I think it leads interesting places - 
like putting the Red Emperor in the position of needing to find how to 
cure the Curse in order to get his favourite pet back.

Well this leads us?again to the choice of Rubble Runner, who will be much more discreet than any heroic champion to accomplish such a foolish mission like bringing down the Crinsom Bat with an explosion in?a ear or in a wing in order then to strike it with the axe from the ground.
The problem is just to reach it and as any human being seems?too big to reach the bat via the Windchildren... I can't see any other possibilities.

I?think that we need now to beef up?Rotterex and the "hero" who will strike?the Bat on the ground?once with Talor's axe (hoping to drive it crazy and incontrolable)...

Certainly as an augment. After all, this Rubble Runner does follow the
Malkioni faith..

Whoa, not so fast. Rotterex isn't carrying the axe, remember.. Something
this heroic will probably have to carried out in a number of stages.

Firstly, you have to get the Runner to the Bat. Now this is primarily a
conflict between the Wind Children who are carrying the Runner vs The
Bat; flight vs the bat's tongues in the first instance. How you augment
the Wind Children in this first stage is up to you.

The second stage will be Runner trying to get into the nose of the Bat
(or ear, or any similar orifice). That'll be the Runner's hide/run
abilities vs the ability of those on the Runner's back to find the
little armour-plated lizard.

The third stage will be Rotterex planting the bomb and getting out of
there before it goes "boom!"

Now if that disables the Bat *then* you can apply Talor's Axe.

That was a whole different mad plan. The air-drop grenadier rubble 
runner is not the same at all :)

Whoa, not so fast. Rotterex isn't carrying the axe, remember.. Something
this heroic will probably have to carried out in a number of stages.

Firstly, you have to get the Runner to the Bat. Now this is primarily a
conflict between the Wind Children who are carrying the Runner vs The
Bat; flight vs the bat's tongues in the first instance. How you augment
the Wind Children in this first stage is up to you.

The second stage will be Runner trying to get into the nose of the Bat
(or ear, or any similar orifice). That'll be the Runner's hide/run
abilities vs the ability of those on the Runner's back to find the
little armour-plated lizard.

The third stage will be Rotterex planting the bomb and getting out of
there before it goes "boom!"

Now if that disables the Bat *then* you can apply Talor's Axe.

*nods* The javelin throwers from the Orlanthi forces can help out in that
regard as well.

The Wind Children will also attempt to keep their distance and provide
missile fire. They don't want to get close to the bat however, as it's
tongues haven't slowed down.

Any other means of distraction, or shall we go straight into the scene
with the grenade carrying rubble runner being dropped on to the Crimson
Bat?

[OOC]
After hours of reflexion, outside a few spells, the problem seems totaly outside Azhur's possibilities and what?I understand as the other PC's possiblities.

"Run, rabbit , run!"?would have been my next movement in a panicked RQ?table game... Thanks to longer delays,?I'm more curious than panicked and I'm waiting to see what will happen to this orlanthi uprising. But surely this first contact with the lunar empire with leave marks in Azhur's mind... if he survives it :-)
