there is only one way to find out, so I press one of the
‘Yes’ buttons.
Intimidating
Aura (SLvl 1, 0%) -Passive
You
give off an aura that overpowers and diminishes most people. Creature of the
wild will feel your aura and determine you to be a considerable threat, often
opting to remove you first.
SLvl
1:
-
Intimacy cannot be grown with NPC's under normal circumstances.
-
15% chance every 20sec nearby monsters will get the 'Aggro' status towards you
for 3min.
-
Enemies who are under 'Aggro' status will suffer a 20% penalty in both attack
and defence
-
This ability is Soul Bound, cannot be unequipped.
NPC's
will be affected by 'Intimidating Aura' even if your identity is hidden as the
aura given off is much more powerful than 'Aggravation'. The White Wolf Winter
cloak will still hide your identity.
Brilliant, It is basically
the exact same as before. Unable to be unequipped, and more of a pain than it’s
worth.
I feel like digging a
hole in the ground with my head in frustration. Good news is my intimacy
will not drop for no reason like before, but nor would it improve unless I did
something special. The part where it will ‘Aggro’ an enemy is also still there,
completely overcharged from how it was when ‘Aggravation’ was at level 1.
The only saving
grace was that monsters caught with ‘Aggro’ had a penalty to both attack
and defence which would be incredibly useful fighting large numbers of
opponents.
I notice that the Prince
Charming has disappeared from the party window as well, leaving just me and
Fen.
“Well Fen, looks like it’s
just us, I only have thirty green medicinal herbs left but if we are careful we
should be able to clean out this floor and leave.”
I sit with Fen and use ten
of the herbs to heal our wounds. It takes a total of about half an hour to
recover most of our wounds and I use that time to loot all the items that were
dropped.
The goblin warriors
dropped some decent items, a few silver coins instead of copper ones, and the
rusty iron armour surely must be worth more than the swords when it came to
scrap metal value.
Right next to where we
rested however was the best loot of them all. The purse of coins Prince
Charming left behind at his death holding a total
of fifteen gold, seven silver, and one hundred and forty
three copper coins.
‘Well, he has already left the party
so I guess the money is mine for the taking. I probably couldn’t get it back to
him anyway,’
I run a
bunch of reasons as to why it is okay to take someone else’s money. Not because
I’m not going to take it otherwise, I just want to feel less guilty about
it.
Collecting all the loot
lying around, I lead Fen deeper into the dungeon as we hunt for more goblins.

-Verde-
The goblins ambushed us
from behind. The group being just as large as the one Lost and Fen were
fighting. I received the first attack in the back, a critical hit removing
thirty percent of my total health.
Sir Laurence naturally
noticed my health drop in an instant and had turned to protect me, placing his
body in between me and the goblins. If I didn’t know what his true character
was like I would probably be slightly flattered.
The goblins slowly chipped
away at our health, the two goblin warriors that Lost warned us about were the
most dangerous, with blows nearly strong enough to blow Sir Laurence’s shield
back.
Moments before our
inevitable death a volley of iron and ice assaulted the goblins followed
by Lost appearing behind them, both swords ready for combat. I vaguely heard
him say something but I couldn’t hear properly, nearly dead with bleeding
wounds caused by rusty weapons was not good. I did not feel any discomfort yet
I could not move my body more than a twitch.
Lost, all of a sudden
dashed into the group of goblins, showing off an inhuman speed and reaction
rate. My
