And Barty would win. But we aren't talking about the books. I seriously doubt whether in a real battle, Nathaniel would 'inadvertantly' kill Verroq.
Anyway, welcome Stanley135.

Ummm . . . I think we've established that the footstool isn't a contender, despite the voting system, as flawless and serious as it is.
When I set out from the boy's attic window, my head was so full of competing plans and complex strategems that I didn't look where I was going and flew straight into a chimney.

And breaks, killing itself and merely giving Verroq a sore rear.

Thankyou very much for that terrific anti-climax. I was going to leave it up to peoples imaginations, but oh well. :S

i think bartimaeus would become a footstool (cuz he liked the style remember?) and have a death to death, fierce, fullblown fight. then......he would morph into a 20 ft, bloodthirsty lion and sit on the footstool. so....


BARTIMAEUS WINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol2:

What?? Yes, Bart wins, but I'm slightly confused about HOW he wins . . .?

Feh.
Bart still loses.
Look at what happened when he fought the Afrit with the silver scythe: got his ass kicked.
Granted, Verroq wouldn't have a giant silver blade, but his resilience makes up for it.

1) Goddamn typo
2) Resilience doesn't reflect magic, just absorbs it.
3) An afrit is a crapload more powerful than Verroq.

I know what Resilience does, it's just that they're similar in that they keep the user/gifted safe.
I wouldn't say a crapload.
Typo there, btw.
Member's of his sect made it to Ptolemy's room without a problem sneaking.
The fight doesn't have to be great and massive warfare, could be a game of cat-and-mouse.
Either way, Verroq could probably kill an Afrit if he got it in his hands.
Big hands, ya know.

Thinking in terms of most awesome, footstool all the way.
In terms of ability, the Mercenary.
