There's a babble of noise - some people assuring the creature that as it's their king, they can't possibly hurt it, some casting defensive spells, and some standing still. The creature begins to look less apprehensive.

"Will you do what I say?", it asks. There's reassurance from several members of the group that indeed, they will, and an expression of something like glee crosses its face. It turns, spinning on its heel, and points, away across the landscape. "There's a big boy out there, and he hurt me. Make him hurt!"

Could someone cast a "break physic link", "dismiss empathy", "physic protection" or similar spell please and see how we feel then?

Can I do this? Have I any spells?

Kings, in my experience neither spin on heels nor allow glee to transverse their visages!

You know, sorry as I was not to be able to join this, it's providing a great story to follow!

If you're doing things this way, I'd like a will check, please. My remit from one of the initial polls was "damage control", so what I want to do is remain where I am and see what pans out, with a view to limiting whatever damage may be caused - either by this peculiar king-figure or by the big boy he alleges hurt him.

If I fail the will check, then I guess I head out, but I'm not a vanguard-attack type.

Find somewhere where I can watch everyone *else* hunting, and try to get an overview of wtf is going on

As far as I'm concerned, if I'm mind controlled, I'm mind controlled. Long live the King! (And let's make Big Boy hurt.)

I'm going to try to sneak off and see if I can glean any information from my less-immediate surroundings.
