Wait, what? What did I miss? Was there a previous thread?

He is a handsome and dashingly polite barbarian that felt bad about leading on a gnome warlord.

I had to... Shall we say, "distract" the Gnome Warlord while my compatriots raided her Command tent and stole a Scrying Orb that we needed.

>>8947192
Why'd she freak out and just stab you in the guts? Isn't the point of a bloodless solution supposed to be a, Oh, I dunno, DISTINCT LACK OF BLOOD?

>>8947431
She did not know I was part of the group at the time. Before, she thought I was just a surprisingly well-mannered cunt-tease from the rank and file of her army; then, when she saw me again, she just blew up. Here's how I left her the last time we had met:

>The last Gerald Farthing saw of said Gnome, she was clutching a robe around her naked form with one hand and waving around a spear with the other. She was also cursing me out pretty heavily <_<

>The group wisely chose not to interfere

Sounds like a dick move to me, OP.

>B) say she was sorry for overreacting
After a woman stabs you and gets apologetic for it I think you have the upper hand in the relationship.

>>8947541
Well, we assumed I'd be able to survive anything she could dish out, so we agreed beforehand that unless she was going to do something like chop my head off to leave her be.

Granted, I really didn't expect a spear in my guts, but we still made it out of there, and it looks like I made her feel bad or something by not fighting back. Either way, it looks like she's at least calmed down.

>>8947545
I think she may actually be bi-polar. Which would make having her as a queen... interesting, to say the least.

Woooo, more Gerald! PLEASE tell me you got experience for that!

>>8947541
I think they are trying to peacefully neuter her army.

>>8947609
We certainly got some nice chunks of RP xp out of it, with me getting the lion's share due to practically spilling my guts on the ground. The others also got some, though, mostly in the pre-meeting (before she recognized me/realized who I was).

So, what's the party's next move, OP?

>>8947689
Currently, the Warden and the Wizard are slated to go attempt to negotiate while the Bard keeps me company in our home garrison. Assuming I make my skill checks (which are pretty easy, considering most of them are Endurance/Con checks), I'll be back up and raring to go by the end of the next session. I'll also have some interesting new scars to show to the ladies :/

Baus here, keep it up bro, looks like You've got a better shot at getting the poonanny than I've got.

Also, when she eventually discovers you're the big damn hero saving her and her entire nation from EBUL, that's when you get the furious make-up sex.

YES! I was hoping you'd be back!

now having sex will be painful and uncomfortable for both of you, with your ab wound and all.

>>8947192
Oh god.

OP's got a yandere Gnome Warlord gunning for his Half-Orc Barbarian.

This can only end in pain and/or pleasure.

>>8948098
4e game, he'll be good in a day.

Yeah, that seems a little weird, but hell, they have a Bard in the party.

Heh, just noticed, Warden, Barbarian, Wizard, Bard. Balanced 4-man party, split even Primal/Arcane. Kinda cool, actually.

>>8948098
I'm planning on taking a trip to the local church to get my wounds tended to by a priest once I can walk, but so far the ministrations of the Bard have been sufficient to keep me healthy, if not in optimal condition.

>>8948118
>*I love you!*
>*OMG YOU'RE A JERK*
>*Nice meeting with you folks, let's discuss WHY IS HE HERE GOD DAMN JABJABJAB*
>*Sorry, so sorry*

Huh, not quite sure "yandere" quote fits here. Yandere would be more "don't ever leave me... seriously". She seems to be acting reasonable... you know, for a D&D NPC.

>>8948193
Yeah she found out her enemy emotionally manipulated then spurned her and she stopped short of murdering him.

>>8948139
We've got some modified rules, so unless you see an actual priest/medic and get patched up for an overhaul you'll eventually start building up negative points. I wasn't due for an overhaul when I went to the meeting, but afterwards, I've got a grand total of -2 points to various things (such as Athletics, Endurance, Attacks, HP, etc). Carliss (the bard) is also running on negative points (-1), so we're both going to go see the priest once I'm up and walking.

>>8948237
> yandere
> stopped short of murdering him

LOL no.

>>8948285
wtf is yandere?

Get the Gnome to start using an Axe instead of a Spear.

You can be Waifu and Husbando on the battlefield!

>>8948343
Maybe once I've gotten closer to her. She might just start stabbing me again if I tell her to swap her weapon of choice.

>>8948333
Think Tsundere but more violent.

bamp

Is your DM using some alternate combat system? I ask because of the detailed wound descriptions you give, which, as we all know, D and D combat has no actual rules for.

>>8948666
Its a bit alternate, though nothing much. Roll 1d6 when attacking, with 1-6 being different areas of the body. Depending on your class/race, you've got a set number of points in each bodypart before it starts redlining and it confers a negative point.

>>8948514
Not entirely accurate.

Tsundere starts out mean and disliking you, but then becomes increasingly more affectionate, often awkwardly so, over time. Examples include Kagome AND Inuyasha (note that males can be tusndere, too, just not violently so), Loiuse, Shana, etc.

Yandere starts out nice and loving, but becomes more violent over time, often horrifically so. Tsundere's slap you, beat you with a whip, kick you in the groin, etc. Yandere's come at you with a knife, or attack the girl they suspect is trying to steal you away with a hatchet, gut her to make sure she isn't/wasn't pregnant, and then run off with her severed head.

>>8948723
Addendum: only certain powers can use that, mainly stuff that only targets specific creatures rather than area/blast attacks. Area/Blast attacks don't roll and only give 1/3 of a negative point to all areas when they hit.

>>8948761
What is it when she starts out affectionate, finds out she has been used, guts you, then starts to warm back up to you? Just dating?

>>8948832
Technically, the score so far is Love-Hate-Hate-Love.

>>8948949
lust-hate-hate-love(?)

>>8948985
Yes, that's the right one. Seduction - Cursing my ancestors and my manhood - stabbing in the guts - apologetic and wanting to talk.

>>8948832
We don't know that she's "warmed back up" yet, just that she regrets having lost control, particularly in front of her men. It's a face-saving maneuver going both ways. Because he stood there and took it (Like a BOSS) rather than fought back, she has a reputation as assaulting cunt-teases, and apologizing is the first step in redacting her hasty decision to get violent.

I still say stay suspicious, she may be interested in you due to your potential to have a title just like her army and power interest you.

>>8949027
Like a BOSS BAUS, to be precise.

You've shown us what you look like OP, but what does the Gnome look like?

>>8949027
Why would apologizing make her save face? I bet her men would respect her gutting a spy more.

>>8949153
I posted it in the first thread, but here it is again.

In our campaign:

>Halflings and Gnomes are just different sizes/have some more exaggerated features pertaining to being Fey in our campaign setting, so human proportions exist up and down the scale (just, well... scaled down <_<).

>>8949157
As far as I (and the rest of the party knows), she's the only one who got a clear look at us (and me in particular, which explains why she didn't gut ALL of us). So, from the point of view of her army, it'd look like she just gutted an emissary at lolrandum

Worked for Leonidas.

>>8949289
Oh god... And judging from the size difference between Gnomes and Half-Orcs, it'd be about the same size difference as Leonidas and Xerxes...

Well the obvious solution is to spear her in the stomach back *wink wink*

>>8949393
I see what you did there

>>8949393

Well, I'll be leaving for now, unless anybody else wants to ask questions/suggest how we go about negotiating next time we meet the Warlord.

>>8949569
once the business is taken care of, ask to speak with her alone, and explain that you understand why she gutted you, and hope never to be on the wrong side of her again. (little humor will lighten the mood) depending on the reaction to that, you should know for sure what her personality is like.

i hope you keep posting these events on /tg/
