  1. Slithers sigh: " Unfortunatly, they are always like that. At least from my own experience. A vagabond life isnt easy to begin with, imagine what I have to live throught as a snake. I should have being a better person and just keep my mouth shut... but I get tired of their hypocrisy and biases. It's hard to find animals I can trust. Hence why you are a breath of fresh air to me miss Rikki and why I dont mind mister Sandukan attitude toward me that much. " Seeing how the crowd still is chaotic, he tell the mangooses: " If we want to go throught safely, we need to look as dangerous as possible. Only this way the residents will try to avoid us as much as possible. Let's be loud and threatening to make everyone avoid us. Otherwise, we will have a hard time going throught this crowd. Ok? " As soon as he get the ok from the mongoose, They are yellingto animals to go out of their ways, with weapons out and yelling to animals getting too close to leave them alone and scram.
  2. Read a Tense Situation When you read a tense situation, roll with Cunning. On a 7–9, ask 1. On a 10+, ask 3. Take +1 when acting on the answers. Ώ What’s my best way out / in / through? Ώ Who or what is the biggest threat? Ώ Who or what is most vulnerable to me? Ώ What should I be on the lookout for? Ώ Who is in control here? Roll EDIT: So I'll ask " What is the best way throught this chaos? " and act accordingly.
  3. Trying to see how it works. A cute little vid for my favorite MLP enjoyers here 😁
  4. Don't get me wrong, I have stories of COMPETENT lawyers to share. Second-handed ones but still. I'm not speaking in term of skills. But my ex-gf for exemple had to deal with a few incomptent/vulture ones against her parents. And I hear other stories that disgusted me too but that's aother story. In short, I wish i could ask an "Alexa" what are the local law for X and answer me. Or find me what are the documents I would need to fullfill to fix X situation. That kind of stuff. I understand that mediation, being in court and so forth need a real lawyer but I wish we could get assistance with a touch on my phone.
  5. No, only second-hand stories actually. And I'm very happy about not having to deal with those vultures. I'm sure idealistically that their must be well-meaning lawyers out there but... I have yet to meet one or hear stories about one. Corruption is everywhere and I just see them as part of it. And besides, lawyers are teached to forget your principles if you want to have cases, especially if you want to defend people who are obviously guilty.
  6. Darn... cause to me, if there is one profession I REALLY wish would be render less relevant, it would be lawyers. I still wish all state laws (or at least the most common ones) would be compiled into an phone app for when you need lawful advices. Like, all the rules for housing, traffic, if you enter a construction zone, etc.
  7. And I swear people are too chickens to create a law app. It would make lawyers a lot less relevant and Im curious how a AI lawyer would fare.
  8. He answer him as he climb the wagon, in a acid cold tone: " I never said his widow LIVED in Honeywell, I said she happens to be there. You're not listening and you seem very forgetful... Like how you "forgot" to bring the medical mallet that I saw behind you in your caravan when I climb on it. You said it's the lack of ressources that made you unable to save him, yet you didn't bring any more then the strict minimum. You are getting old, cruel and scattered minded, not good for a doctor. Farewell! " He had not said anything before but after his comment about not trusting snakes, he wanted to sting the old rabbit where it hurt. He knew exactly how much the rabbit had travelled light and that he had only used ressources he had on his person to make the run there. Sure he did his best once there, with the ressources he brought with him... but it's clear he kept a lot of stuff for the travel ahead. At first, Slithers wouldnt have said anything... but the old fool had to open his mouth. To Sadukan: " That's where his wife is isn't it? That otter? You know your way around, I don't. Please lead us. "
  9. YEEEEESSS !!! I CREATED LOOOOOOORE *scream that with MattPatt voice* 😁 Then... let's polish it! (only if nobody minds lol) The Hippos arrived by ships with a flock of Oxpecker in the Woodlands. Exotics birds, not native to the Woodlands. They got lost and needed to refill their supplies before leaving. In those times, there were a lot of quacks in the Woodlands and a lot of misconception and religious rites linked to medicine. When they saw how bad it was for the Woodlands, they created the first pharmacy/medicine school in the Woodlands. Their was very few students and most of them Eeyries. The hippos only stayed a few months though but those months were life changing for the Woodlands. The Hippos never returned (having offended the Lizard Cultists who were trying to made them think that praying would be the best medicine) but their values were maintained in honor of all the good they did for the Woodlands. Dental Hygene was also part of the thing they teached the non-Eerye as thanks for their services. The Hyppocratic Oath became universal and a requirement for all those who wanted to learn medicine, in honor of those benevolent giant who had being so kind to them and who's teaching saved so many lives. They became a legend of benevolence for all critters in the Woodlands. EDIT: Would you like if we had a seperate thread for the times we wanna chat about our general life? Like the shows we watched, what is going on in our personnal life, etc ?
  10. Slithers snark to the doctor: " You fullfilled the Hippocratic Oath you swore on, which in legends, is named after the benevolent hippos that brought the original teaching of medicine into the Woodlands. A life is a life and I assure you that otter was morally better than you give it credit for. If you want a tip, you'll need to ask his now widow who happens to be in Honeywells, the place you are fleeing AND the place that is probably going to be razed to the ground by bandits. And announce her you couldn't save her husband. Is it all worth it to you? " No, of course it wasn't. He bring back the doctor to his caravan: " This fullfill my duties to you. I wish you safety and good luck on your travel. You'll need it as those roads are filled with bandits. Luckily for you, they are probably razing Honeywells now, leaving you guys some time. Farewell! " To his group, in a more hushed tone: " Let's find that fox. If his background is what I think it is, he is probably filling his pockets somewhere. We can start looking at the places with the most valuables that aren't in flames. " Edit: (I know I'm creating lore a bit, for the part about the Hippocratic Oath (which is the name of the real oath doctors have to take). I just thought it was hilarious and showing Slithers scholar background but I can remove that part if needed LOL)
  11. ... considering how that chicken burned the school/printery, Slithers will probably have a few choice words to tell that chicken. Considering his scholar "background", he is going to be pissed. it's not going to fly with Slithers... not that a chicken can fly anyway. Im fully prepared to lower my reputation will the Eerye.
  12. Blame Ripley then. And that chicken. If Ripley feels bad, he can use his new army to unroot the chicken army and then try to set the Woodland Alliance in Honeywell. It would fit the group decision early in the game.
  13. Well, if any historians ask, we can just say that someone will defend their life or the ones they want to protect with all they have. Hard to use a subtle, diplomatic solution when your life is at risk.
  14. Is Mcnugget captain still at the hospital? Otherwise, maybe raiding his tree would be the best place to go, since he left it unguarded. Get the tribute he has being accumulating in it. Unfortunately, he set the Printery on fire. It will be harder to get the treasure inside unless we extinguish it. So I suggest we go to his tree and give him the same treatement he has being doing to the rest of the clearing first. (the 7 on the map)
  15. Unfortunately, we might not have the time to rest. I suggest we do something according to our Nature to refill our energy instead? For exemple, Arsonist Nature:Clear your exhaustion track when you use needlessly destructive or damaging methods to solve a problem That's Ripley nature. Killing the Cat Magistrate guy and setting the town in fire should count toward that and have cleared up his exhaustion track right?
