The frigid waters make Nokraenom's skin turn blue and his teeth begin to
chatter.

A merian bravo slams a clenched fist into Nokraenom's gut, and as he doubles
over with the impact, slams his knee up into Nokraenom's face.

Becoming one with the cosmos, you allow the awesome power of the cosmos to be
reflected through your eyes.
A hideous archdemon departs, trailing black mist.
Shiro, riding a proud celestial pegasus, rushes away with a startling cry.
A proud celestial pegasus spreads its broad wings and soars out to the up.

Narsrim moves his feet in a rhythmic dance and raises a palm before his eyes,
blocking everything from sight. As he slowly turns widdershins, a dark silver
glow pours down from above, sinking into the ground.

Malicia takes a long drag off her pipe.
4200h, 2745m, 3525e, 10p xkp-
With a powerful lunge, Malicia strikes at Daevos with a exquisitely crafted
draconic broadsword. Malicia pricks him in the gut causing him to bleed
slightly.
Horror overcomes Daevos's face as his body stiffens into paralysis.

You begin to struggle free of your entanglement.
4148h, 2850m, 3525e, 10p kp-
Amongst quiet laboratories.
This location is flooded with shallow, crystal clear water. Long marble benches
adorned with scientific and arcane equipment stretch almost the full diameter
of the room here. Remarkably, unlike the rest of the tower, little appears to
have been done to alter this room from its original state. All the apparatus of
a well-supplied workshop is present in order here, and while the implements of
the Aquamancer's trade that hang from hooks and racks may be old and well-worn,
they appear to have been cared for as if they were precious heirlooms of
inestimable value. Glowing glyphs hang in the air here. A merian bravo stands
here, looking at you with suspicion evident in his eyes. A magnificent white
unicorn stands here in silence, illuminating her surroundings with a gentle
silver glow. Crackling with blue lightning, the Handmaiden of Shakiniel hovers
in the air here. Limned with holy fire, a celestial archangel stands loftily on
a floating cloud, regarding you with her sympathetic eyes of light. An icewall
is here, blocking passage to the down. A massive eagle perches here, silently
preening its midnight-black plumage. There are 2 hideous archdemons here. Smoke
curling from her nostrils, a night mare paws impatiently at the black clouds
that roil beneath her hooves. Black Cardinal Ashar, the Infernal Whisper is
here. He wields a tainted ceremonial longsword in his left hand and a glowing
powerstone in his right. Heir of Ellindel, Narsrim Moonlit Avenger is here. He
wields a stag and moon tower shield in his left hand and an athame dagger in
his right. Master Nokraenom d'Erlette is here, shrouded. He wields an iron
shield in his left hand. Ur'Marshal Alger D'Tylmirande is here. He wields a
baleful rapier of darkened steel in each hand. Lanista Malicia La'Saet, Sunaj
Blade is here. She wields a broadsword with flame etchings in her left hand and
a exquisitely crafted draconic broadsword in her right. Ur'Warlord Daevos
Feyranti, Dragon of Midnight is here, giving off a truly ghastly stench. He
wields the lightning fang of the dark dragon in his left hand.
You see exits leading up and down.

Here it comes...


4148h, 2850m, 3525e, 10p kp-
Nokraenom begins to chant in a deep and baleful voice, and an iron cross rises
up from the ground before you. Vicious spikes slam into your flesh and nail you
to the cross. You scream in pain and agony as blood is splattered in all
directions.

3117h, 2850m, 3525e, 10p kp-
CRUCIFIED!
You have recovered balance on all limbs.
3117h, 2850m, 3525e, 10p xkp-
A merian bravo mutters and traces a cobalt blue pentagram in the air that
remains hovering before him.
3117h, 2850m, 3525e, 10p xkp-
Sparkling water splashes up over your body, healing your wounds.
3327h, 2850m, 3525e, 10p xkp-
Daevos whips a hellish night mare into a fury, bucking and racing dangerously
in a circle, trampling the ground in a frenzy.
A hellish night mare breaks your left leg.
A hellish night mare crushes your right leg.
A hellish night mare pulverizes your left arm.
A hellish night mare smashes your right arm.

Narsrim takes some salve from a vial and rubs it on his legs.
2938h, 2850m, 3525e, 10p xkp-
You are too stunned to be able to do anything.
2938h, 2850m, 3525e, 10p xkp-
Nokraenom shivers particularly intensely.

Alger looms over you and plunges his hands into your chest, ripping out your
heart. As the last drops of your life trickle away, you watch helplessly as he
offers up the bloody organ to the Demon Lords of Nil, and then laughs
ecstatically as monstrous dark shadows wrap around him.
You have been slain by Alger.
Variables reset.
Active mode.
The corpse of a pooka falls out of your inventory.
The corpse of a banshee falls out of your inventory.
The corpse of an enormous gorgog falls out of your inventory.
The corpse of the crone falls out of your inventory.
The corpse of Aloldyne Blontine falls out of your inventory.
The corpse of a hideous archdemon falls out of your inventory.
As your soul leaves your body, the elixir vitae courses through your spirit and
suddenly bursts in a bright light, forming a new body around your soul.

Balance police please? A 3 person unavoidable instakill?

Surely that's a bug? Only the person who crucified should be able to sacrifice, come on...
Narsrim2005-08-29 23:30:31
This is more or less like the kai cripple + vivisect combo, which I believe has now been removed from all other IRE games.
Amaru2005-08-29 23:32:28
Ya, except cripple didn't stun. blink.gif
Yrael2005-08-29 23:33:33
..now sacrifice is overpowered?
Amaru2005-08-29 23:34:15
Used in this way, how can it not be? Don't play with words Yrael, look at the evidence.

No. It is over powered in a group combination. Kai cripple was not over powered. Vivisect was not over powered. Vivicripple was.

It's completely unavoidable... how is that not overpowered?
Amaru2005-08-29 23:35:48
This is just like thunderclap. It isn't overpowered in itself, but two at once, the room-wide instakill, shouldn't be possible.
Athana2005-08-29 23:35:53
Hrm, I also don't think sacrifice was intended to be able to work that way..
Yrael2005-08-29 23:36:31
So they use a combination of trans and near trans skills, (The stun wears off before you get balance back, just as a heads up, so it's a bastard alone) and.. oh, screw it. Yrael's brain hurts.
Unknown2005-08-29 23:36:51
Hey guys, here's a new overpowered skill.

8 Aquamancers. Staffcast once.

That'll smoke most people.

Pfft, that's weaksauce. The truly overpowered skill is Knighthood. Imagine what would happen if 900 novices were swinging their clubs at you at once. Unavoidable death, that's what.

You guys are missing the point, but then... as people who don't generally frequent the combat section, it's to be expected. Go away.
Unknown2005-08-29 23:40:36

You mean sacrifice wasn't intended to work at all?

Oh, and we've tested it with ectoplasm, scabies and epilepsy (Alone, since, timed, that's supposed to make you able to pull it) and it doesn't work, also.
Unknown2005-08-29 23:41:03
Two Celestines amissio the poor Ur'Guard. Third absolves. Overpowered!
