Part 2 - In Which I am Killed by and Kill Some Dragons

It had not been long since my encounter with the brigand Cora that I noticed another person in need of my services. Lord Azteka, a fine dandy if there ever was one, sat atop his nightmare. I grab his nightshade. He is not happy.

He paralyzes me and then puts his nightmare on me. I flee. I return, but he gates out. Yes, gates while mounted on the nightmare. He has no pets in tow.

Obviously, something is up. Obviously, I go through the gate.

And, of course, on the other side in Skara Brae, I find a small army of dragons waiting for me. By sheer luck, I manage to flee with very, very little life remaining. I test my luck a few more times, only to fail and die. So much for luck.

I manage to get resurrected and back to Britain to find my dandyish friend waiting, a few dragons in tow--not the entire army. I go for the nightshade again. He goes for the paralyze. I flee. After a few minutes of this, I notice that he has ceased to move. I fear he may not be at his computer. What do do?

I attack. I quickly beat the life out of him, while his dragons look on. Onlookers, including that dread brigand Cora, look on. Some of them are amused if shocked.

Moriarty: That was harsh.

chumbucket: Harsh measures for a dragon dude. Nothing to be done.

Moriarty: Why can't everyone be nice? And just pvm?

chumbucket: I know.

[Given the lack of context, I should note he was joking.]

Harsh measures, indeed. But they were about to get harsher. The call goes out over IRC: Who has a ton of purple pots? There are dragons to be killed! A few well-wishers hear the call of duty, and four kegs and a ton of bottles are my reward.

The first attempt is a failure. I drop fifty greater explosions on them, but only wound them. Moriarty and his horse become collateral damage. He asks if I am about to kill them. I lie. He comes closer to inspect. A little too close.

In their anger, the dragons and nightmare scatter. There is now no way to kill them. What to do? One of my well-wishers notes that the remaining members of Azteka's dragon army are still standing about Skara Brae.

TO SKARA BRAE!

I won't bore you with too much more. Sufffice to say that while fifty greater explosions will only take half a bar of health from dragons, two hundred potions will kill them twice over. And how. Be sure to watch both RPVs.

The RPVs can be found on my screenshot/RPV thread: Dragon Killing

Some more screenshots. RPVs coming soon!

Ok, for those of you who were not there, this was one of the funniest things I have seen in game. (sorry Azteka, I love ya, but wow...) They just toppled over like dragon dominoes. That was one big explosion.

I just joined the server but I am very happy there are people like you on it. The game needs more shenanigans.
