The Ruler of the Black Knights

The Saviors went on to open the door behind the Ogre and found an empty storage room. All that was in there was a piece of wood that said “Property of the Black Knights” and on the other side was just numbers going up the side. The saviors decided that they would need it to find the “Ruler of the Black Knights”.

They exited out of the room and kept on their path hoping that they would find the Ruler, and stumbled upon some patrolling goblins. They tried once again to talk to them to find out where the ruler is. They even showed them the stick they had found hoping it would lead the way to the Ruler. The goblins saw that the Saviors had the stick and attacked, but the Saviors quickly dispatched of them.

They advanced down the path, and found themselves in front of a door. They tried listening through the door and heard some snoring. They decided it would be best to send in Trippie Pink as she could stealthily (is that even a word?) see what was inside the room. As she stepped inside, all she saw was a bunch of beds and a couple of tables. Pink tried making her way towards the snoring, but tripped over a bed. And, the snoring stopped.

“Stupid goblins, they never shut up.” she heard and the snoring started once again.

She made her way to the bed and saw a man sleeping there. She went back and told the rest of the Saviors what she saw. They all figured that it must be the Ruler of the Black Knights and decided to grab him and head out before the goblins came back.

They made their way out of the cave and once outside they started talking to the man. Asking him if he was the Ruler. He said he was just a merchant traveling back to Cornelia. The Saviors thought he was trying to hide the fact that he was in fact the Ruler and asked him again if he was the Ruler of the Black Knights. He asked them what does it matter what color the ruler is.

The Saviors looked at each other and realized that they had the ruler all along. They left the old man, and headed back to Cornelia. They walked into Miss Olga’s office and The Black Knight that was sitting there, jumped up and said “You found our Ruler, now we can start measuring again.” He grabbed the ruler and left the room.

Miss Olga told the Saviors that they had done good, and that she was waiting on a messenger to bring her back the report of their new missions.

The Saviors went to the Tavern and Melvin told them that he had lost an Amethyst Pendant in the Tulip Forest. He would go look for it, but he had no one to take care of the tavern while he was gone. The Saviors agreed and went on to find the Amethyst Pendant in the Tulip Forest.

25 Years and All I Got Was A Pikachu

It’s Pokemon Season at McDonald’s. And what does that mean? It means everyone and their mom is buyng Happy Meals. Including me. I got to feed my kids. And they like McDonald’s. Is it wrong that I keep the cards? I would say nope. They still get the stickers that usually come with the cards and they’re as happy as can be. 2 and 3 years old is perfect for this. They get excited with a couple of paper airplanes and boats.

I have noticed that some people are complaining about their McDonald’s running out of cards for the Happy Meals, but I haven’t encountered that yet. Every night I go I get my 5 Happy Meals. Chocalate Milk and Apple Juice, and I don’t have to run to the grocery store. It’s a win-win situation.

But, now we see the prices race to the bottom as everyone is undercutting the next seller. Pikachu Holo, started around $75 I think, and now its sitting at around $40. It’s still a good amount considering you found it in a Happy Meal. Bulbasaur and Charmander fetching $10 and $15. I think Bulbasaur actually went up a little as I saw the prices at $8 for a bit.

Now it’s been 30 packs or so, and finally got the Holo Pikachu. Was it worth the time spent driving to McDonald’s ordering 5 Happy Meals every night, for this one card. Yes, Yes it was. And I shall still be looking till they run out of Pokemon cards.

Even thought they might drop down to $20 bucks in the near future. Nothing beats the feeling of getting the one card that you’re looking for out of a pack.

Dungeons & Dragons FF Campaign 05

The Saviors, ended up escorting Princess Sara back to Cornelia. The King was overjoyed, and told them that he will rebuild the bridge, so they can carry on their travels. And, that he has heard that there is some trouble in Elfland. (Who would have thought?)

Princess Sara, gave the Saviors, each an orb. She told them that a Sage gave them to her and she would know who to give them to. The players took the orbs, and went to find Miss Olga to get their reward for saving the princess.

Once inside Miss Olga’s office, the Black Knights came and said that they needed help. The Ruler of the Black Knights was missing. They believe the Ruler was taken by the goblins. The Saviors were to head to the Goblin Cave and get the Ruler back.

On their way to the cave they found a couple of goblins running into the forest, and they decided it was best to follow them. The goblins lead them straight to the cave’s entrance where there were two more goblins standing watch. The Saviors tried communicating with them, but the goblins had no idea on what they were saying.

They entered into battle, as one of the goblins ran inside. The goblins were defeated quickly and the Saviors made their way through the cave. They decided to split up at one point. Akrasia and Mr. Tinkles found themselves in front of a giant spider, and Squirt and Astra were busy trying to get the goblins to lead them to the Ruler.

The Spider was no match for Mr. Tinkles and Akrasia, because they ran away. And the goblins had no clue as to what Squirt was trying to tell them. They decided to try and show them the orbs to see if that would help. The goblins pointed at the orbs and made a gesture that the Saviors should follow them.

They led them to some more goblins and the goblins attacked them. The goblins were defeated, easily, because they have very low HP. The Saviors then found a treasure chest which contained Goblin Armor.

After searching through most of the cave they came upon an Ogre guarding a door. This must be where the Ruler is being held. So, they just attacked the Ogre. Lots of attacks, Fire spells, healing, potions being thrown left and right. And Squirt steady pummeling on the Ogre. The Ogre fell, and the Saviors decided to call it a night. But, not before Squirt took the Ogre’s club.

More Delays

Well, it looks like we have more delays coming up. First it was the Sephiroth Tins, and now Opus XIV is delayed and so is a new 2-Player Starter Set. But, at least we know of these ones ahead of time, other than right before release.

It doesn’t look like the Chaos Boss Deck will receive any delays, even though my distributor has no clue as to what’s going on with it. And Opus XIII is right around the corner.

 

On the other hand we had a new spoiler. Bhunivelze PR-091/13-062H. Is it just me or are the Pre-release promos always Hero cards? I’ll have to take a look into that.

Bhunivelze
10CP – Earth
Forward – God
10000

The cost required to cast Bhunivelze is reduced by 2 for each Backup of a different element you control, other than Multi-Element.
Damage 3 – Bhunivelze gains Brave and “Bhunivelze can attack twice in the same turn”
Damage 6 – When Bhunivelze attacks, Choose 1 Character. Break it.

Even if your playing Mono Earth at 10CP, this card is a power house. Throw in Enna Kros (1-095R)for some +1000, might as well throw in Maria (1-083H) for an additional +1000. And that right there brings Bhunivelze down to 8CP. Can’t forget about Princess Sarah (11-128H), which will also let you pay for your Backups much easier as she counts as any color CP. Dull for +1000. This brings Bhunivelze to 13000 and 6CP.

He’ll slowly clean the board, and your other forwards can go for the kill.

Site Update 005

Opus VII is up. Now on to the next Opus? Maybe. We’ll get started on it, but since Opus XIII is right around the corner. We might start focusing on that. But it’s still a long way off. It is?

Yeah, we got a month and a half to go for that.

Other than that, still no news on the Sephiroth Tins. Shadowbringers Starter Decks are coming out next week. As soon as we get them they’ll go up on the site. They’ll be up for Pre-order. But, not before I know how many I’ll have my hands on.

Same thing goes for the Boss Decks. They should be coming out in March, and they will be up for Pre-Order as soon as I have them.
