Hey, I just had a thought. "A storm is coming" guy yelled at Tudiya about a fire raging even now, right? Remind me, I don't think anyone has actually told Tudiya about the demons under his city yet, have they? He's just rolled out of bed, wiped the honey off his chest, and went straight to judging pretty much. As far as he knows, this is still just a matter of some crazy witch attempting to kidnap his sons and nothing more...yes?

Voting G - Headshot. The guy is going to burn to death. This is a mercy, second only to the crush of Asherah's maw. Vote for mercy, not barbarism.

A. Do nothing. Plenty of Mighty Folk about. Ishamal literally just warned us not to use our powers. Dream Jorah has begged us not to use our powers. We need to do nothing. There are plenty of people around who can react to this, without putting themselves at risk of burning out their soul.

J, and aim carefully, we have a little time. If this isn't a telegraphed Mighty Shot moment I don't know what is. Perfect opportunity to be a badass. Remember, the grove scorpion shot was just like this and it didn't hurt us, nor is being fast and accurate a violation of natural causality like making stuff spontaneously combust is. Interesting how this implies we have a certain very limited ability to sense the future.

I think the votes for upper/lower arm & hand will all end in fairly similar results (if a successful shot is made) - my thinking behind voting for the hand was if whatever he is planning involves simply grabbing & dropping something, he likely will fight through the pain of an upper/lower arm injury and still do it, while a hand injury stops him from grabbing anything. Regardless, any arm shot is only buying time - he can just switch to the other arm. Edit: maybe he's nuts and just wants to whip out his junk.

JT Jag posted:He brought it upon himself. What did you think would happen to him after he said that on today of all days? Mercy is granted by those who can see beyond their pride. Being vindictive because he said some words seems petty. I guess the vote on whether to intervene was very close, but are we actually going to get answers from this random dude, when no one else is budging an inch to tell us anything? It seems like we're going to have to be patient and wait to discover what we want to know. We have a chance to react now and provide a mercy to this man.

You generally show mercy to people that have surrendered themselves, not someone openly defying you. That is is something else. Maybe turning the other cheek? Also, this guy is just saying harmful wards, he's about to wip out something from his robe. Probably his dick.

It's not so much that he is defying us. We have to assume he is threatening everyone in the general vicinity and given the Bareen Battery of Horrors possibly has a WMD. We don't know that and he might pull out a wooden spoon, but we have to assume he is intending destruction and mayhem at the greatest scale possible for him. Whatever energy is being summoned has automatically and naturally kicked us into Mighty Mode: Time Dilation. No exertion of will is involved. We are simply responding to the circumstance. We are likely responding to the 'energy' already beginning to flow in order for him to attempt to carry out whatever violence he has in mind. We need to interrupt that. If we feel that is possible without killing him, so much the better.

J This will disable the hand and open the door for others to subdue him. Dick shot is cool but needlessly vindictive, and he might still manage whatever he is doing.

"Hands off." (if we are shooting at his hand) That's my only suggestion.

Give up. You don't want to know where the next arrow goes.

If slo mo the "noooooooooooooooooooooo" with a close up shot of our face and then snap back is sufficient. If helium the something very serious, righteous and pious will do... "I smite thee in the name of El", but of course shouted in a ridiculous elf voice. If normal, I am sure more creative minds will prevail.

Depending on where he gets hit. hand - "looks like you could use a hand." head - "don't lose your head." Gut shot - "he had a lot of guts." Genitals - "he shouldn't have been such a dick." If he is near any walls that our arrow can pin him to we could always use the old Arnie favourite. "Stick around."
