Brus lay in a hammock staring at the Serrik night sky, the moons shown bright tonight, he picked up and seed and focused magic, making the seed grow into a small tree. He planted the tree in the fertile soil next to the hammock and smiled.

"I don't know why I would ever leave this place." He laughed.

Name: Haru
Appearance: Haru stands at roughly at 5 and a half feet, she is lightly toned with an athletic build. Her complexion is dark, with a light dusting of freckles across her cheeks. She had long wavy ebony hair which falls to her lower back. Haru's eyes are violet and tent to have odd flecks of gold in them. She dresses modest in mostly black.
Plane: Serrik
Other: Originally from Astar Plane- However was sentenced to 10 years of wondering for a crime she did not commit. Her weapon of choice are either her body or knifes.

---------------

It was night when Haru awoken, her body was aching from the beatings of the day before, She looked around wondering where she could be- the environment was nothing like her home. Spotting a stick she picked it up and began to use it to cut away the overgrowth to work her way out of this jungle and into hopefully some civilization. "where am i?" she asked herself unaware of what she was going to do if she couldn't get back and prove she as innocent.

[buzzsaw133]

Brus sat bolt upright, the leaves rustled to his left, about three and a half yards away. Almost inaudibly, he leapt from the hammock and climbed up a tree above the person, she was a human, as much as he could tell. She was not from around here, her clothing was strange. She looked beautiful, but that would only entice more vicious creatures.

"You know, you should consider where you are, woman." Brus dropped behind her.

[Cahalith]

Haru looked up she wasn't expecting to hear voices from the trees, a man- She needed to be on high alert this place was inhabited by humans- or what sounded like they spoke a human language.

Taking one more Swift hit at the vines that lay in front of her knocking them away with less then easy do to being rather tired from her very long and rather disappointing few days spoke "I am not afraid." She let her arm drop she was heavily breathing and exhausted, the beatings had taken a toll on her and she had little on her, even her knifes had been taken- F**k, she thought to herself.

As the Man dropped behind her she turned and held the stick much like one would a sward- she wasn't good with long bladed weaponry- She didn't like how they felt and how impersonal it made a death, almost as bad as arrows.

With her violet eyes she looked him up and down looking for a weakness, he was stronger then her and moved with agility, if under other situations she may have been able to out run him. Not here- this place was foreign. with A sigh she looked at him still holding her stick.

[buzzsaw133]

"That will do about as much good as yarn." He grabbed the stick and crushed it to splinters. "Here." He pulled a saproling out of the ground and bent it, then he pulled a vine and tied the ends together. "You'll have to find some arrows on your own..." He ducked quickly and pulled her with him as the ground rumbled underneath them. "Shhh."

[Cahalith]

The man just crushed the stick! She was for sure not stronger- What was she going to do, she wondered to herself as he took a strange thing out of the ground and bent it, Looking at him in confusion "What do you suggest I do with this?" she told him out right. "This is now how you defend yourself unless a coward or not willing to take the consequence of killing onto your own hands." She handed it to him and suddenly as he grabbed on to her she moved refusing to be pushed around by some person she didn't know.

"don't grab me." she responded quietly but with a slight edge to her .

OOC: a saproling is something from Magic the Gathering- and doesn't look like it makes a weapon exactly could you explained to me what it is you did with a piece of wood, and if wood don't they need to be soaked to become bendable...just confused.

[buzzsaw133]

(I saproling is a small tree, about four-five feet tall. I see where you got it from, but not the same thing.)

He clasped his hand over her mouth as the ground ceased to rumble. "Shit!" He pulled the axe off of his back and turned around to block a huge charging beast. The beast had three horns, was covered in thick muscle and dense bone plates. The beast continued to push and Brus held him at bay. Grabbing the long chain on the bottom of his axe, he wrapped the chain around a nearby tree, the spikes on the end digging in.

"Find the path, and head east." He yelled to the woman as he grabbed the beast by the center horn and looked into it's eyes.

[Cahalith]

((OOC: that still doesn't answer how he bent it with out it breaking- To make wood bend it needs to be soaked, and then bent- then dried to get stay in that pose.))


The girl had never seen such a creature as this- yes there where large beast where she was from as well, but they didn't look quite like this. She was not afraid of it. Everything had a weakness even something as armored as it. You just had to figure out a way to between the armor and to the squishy part...if the armor was 'indestructible' it had to have another place of weakness.

Nothing was ALL powerful. Nothing was entirely immune. Everything has their Achilles heel- it was just a matter of finding it and exploiting it.

She looked at it being stared down, it was pinned with out a thought She reached down and grabbed a rock, it was long but for sure would do mostly bludgeoning. She crept around the tree to find herself concealed- Climbing it to get perspective and looked down at the beast just watching and waiting for her opportunity to strike.

that man misjudged her- she was not a weak woman, she couldn't be and would never allow herself to be saved by any one other then herself.

[buzzsaw133]

(This is not Earth.)

Brus dropped and hurled the beast into the trees behind him. The beast shook it off and charged again. However, this time the beast stopped just out of reach of Brus' axe and turned and left.

"In case your wondering why I protected you..." Brus looked at the girl. "His master would have killed us both."

[Cahalith]

(I know this isn't earth, I just like to have a basic understanding of how things work...that is all)

The girl Stood in the tree balancing herself "I don't need protection. I am trained in the art of combat." She responded and she let herself drop to the ground gracefully she strained herself up "I am just not accustom to this sort of-" She paused and looked around "environment." She was looking around before she spoke "the beast, can it communicate its findings to its master?"

[buzzsaw133]

"Yes, and your "combat training" won't do any good here." Brus held out his hand. "My name is Brus, what is yours?"

[Cahalith]

The girl looked at him with anger. The man 'Brus' had and attitude she didn't too much care for. She looked at him and said refusing to take his hand "My name is of no importance to you." Shrugging her shoulders she took a few steps back away from him and then said "I may not be from around here, but I will tell you this I am not defenseless, I am not in distress, and I sure as h**l Don't need saving."

Haru was not normally an angry person, she did have a temper when people where receiving something unjust. But this guy she would make special. he just rubbed her wrong- the way he thought he was the most powerful thing here, the strongest, the best--and he treated her like she was helpless, and insulted her abilities. Haru was a very capable person, she had always taken care of herself, and had always been able to keep herself safe.

[buzzsaw133]

"Really?" Brus mused the thought for a minute. "Then what is that." He gestured to a tree bearing bright blue and green fruits.

[Cahalith]

Haru looked at him and said "A plant that has freakishly bright colored fruit." She told him not sure if it was poisonous or not, but didn't care one way or another she wouldn't eat anything that weird looking.

She took a hop backwards over a root, as to not trip. She looked over her shoulder and said "Only thing I need is directions to the nearest town."

[buzzsaw133]

Before she looked back to him, Brus silently leapt into the tree and hung from the branch above her. "You may be adept, but you need a guide." He looked down to her. He whistled and a large green and red snake coiled around the girl's legs. The snakes embrace was calming, almost like being in a warm blanket all over.

[Cahalith]

As the snake came out of no where before it could embrace her in its crushing coils she leaped out of the way- She was crouched down hunkering lowly in a near by branch to Brus ready to fight the strange creature. She moved quicker then most would assume.

[buzzsaw133]

"I see your fast on your feet, but not fast enought." Brus held out his hand and the snake crawled up his arm. "Predators think alike." He stroked the large snake. "Oh, forgive me, where are my manners? Girl, meet Brightscale." The snake looked at the girl and snake's scaled shimmered when the light struck them.

[Cahalith]

Haru looked at him and wrinkled her noise up as she looked at the snake- she didn't like snakes. they tended to be poisonous. "its a snake- Naming it doesn't make it special." She never understood why people named their animals, its not like the animals actually understood it.

She Moved to the side and looked about "I need to get to a town. Is there one here? or it all a bunch of wilderness?" she asked off handed.

[buzzsaw133]

Brus supressed a laugh. "A town, here? The closest thing to a town we have is Citadel of Realms. That's all the way on the other side of this plane. Now, think this over for a minute..." He proceeded. "You new here, you probably wouldn't survive thirty seconds without me and I can smell you from five miles away."

[Cahalith]

She looked at him tilting her head to the sided considering what her options where- he had a point but it didn't mean she had to like it. "I intend for my visit to be very short." She told him "so I have no other choice..." She sighed softly and looked down at the ground then up at Brus--did she really smell. She couldn't help but be a bit bothered by that comment. "Its probably because I got beaten before being dropped in this H**l hole." she said off handed "Haru"

[buzzsaw133]

"Well, you might want to make other plans, this plane has a nasty habit of growing on you." He looked up at the night sky and smiled. "You should come to my village, the Old One could help you."

[Cahalith]

Haru looked at him and said "I want to go home." She needed to prove her innocents, and clear her name. It was a hard day for her to learn that even in Astar there was corruption. The person who tainted her reputation would pay.

[buzzsaw133]

"Let me guess..." Brus sniffed Haru. "From Astar, the scent of blood and stale magic tell me that you were not only beaten, which is obvious..." He gestured to her. "But where banished here from Astar."

[Cahalith]

She looked at him and moved back with an odd expression as he sniffed her- people from other planes where weird. Then narrowed her violet eyes in disdain for his comment "I am from Astar and it is my intent to get back." She looked down a little upset that she had been led astray. if there was on thing she learned trust no one.

[buzzsaw133]

Brus smiled. "Not like that you aren't." He grabbed her hand and immediately her body was covered in a thick green light. When the light faded, she was dresses in the bare minimum of clothing and all of her wounds were healed. "First rule, less clothes, the better and second rule, more manueverability, more chance of survival."

[Cahalith]

She tired to snatch her hand away from him-but wasn't expecting the contact, contact wasn't something she was used to.
When the world around her turned green she let go of the branch that was stabilizing her and she would have fallen backward if ti wasn't for his hand.

She Pulled herself up and stabilized herself roughly pulling her hand away she looked at her clothing and made a face much like disgust "I look like a prostitute." She didn't usually bare so much flesh, modesty was something she was accustom to

[buzzsaw133]

"Would you like me to explain what that is for?" He sighed.

[Cahalith]

She looked at him and shook her head "what, what for? the clothing..well lack of clothing." She made a face "I am not deaf, I just don't care to be in stuff so reveling."

Her flesh was smooth, with the exception of a few battle scars. She had always favored her body and short knifes in combat which gave her less reach she had to learn to take blows. She had to learn to dodge, and notice her enemies weakness.

[buzzsaw133]

"Well, get used to it, how good are you at climbing?" Brus patted the tree.

[Cahalith]

Haru looked at him and said "I haven't climb a tree since I was a child." When she was young she showed much promise of becoming a knight and so was taken to be educated in the ways, which didn't leave much time for Haru to be a kid.

[buzzsaw133]

"Well..." He turned around. "Hold on tight." His fingers spring large mana claws. "Brightscale'll hold you to me if you get tired."

[Cahalith]

She watched as his hand sprouted claws, and made a face at the snake "I think I can manage." She felt stupid, but tried her best to keep up climbing on her own. She was pretty agile but since she wasn't used to it she was slow, and it seemed that she had to think about every step she made while climbing.

[buzzsaw133]

"This is embarressing, you'll get us killed in a matter of minutes." rubbed his forehead. "You know what, brace yourself."

[Cahalith]

She looked at him and tilted her head- "Brace myself?" She as not sure why she needed to brace herself, and looked quite confused "I can do this-"

[buzzsaw133]

He grabbed her by the waist and Brightscale wrapped around them both tightly. "The only way to travel." He swung from branch to vine as though he knew every leaf.

[Cahalith]

Haro shivered she always thought that Snakes felt weird and where kinda creepy. She tried to push him off of her but realize doing so would only resolve in a very long and hard fall.

[buzzsaw133]

Hanging on a thick vine, he spoke to Haru. "My village is just past those trees, we'll take the long way." He swung around the thick, tangled mass of thorny trees and spotted campfires in the distance.

[Cahalith]

She looked at him "the long way? you mean there is a short cut? why not take that?" She bit her lip and looked down feeling a little woozy. She looked up at him "this is so indignant." This being held thing was not comfortable for her, she disliked being touched.

[buzzsaw133]

"Trust me, going through that would be a worse choice than going toe-to-toe with a thorn elemental." He landed near one of the fires and a wall of spears greeted them. "Whoa, guys, she's new."

[Cahalith]

Without thinking she did a round house and broke a few of the spears She took a defensive stand and brought her hands up to block.

She looked at Brus and realized that he knew them and let her guard down by bringing her hands to her side in a less aggressive manor.

[buzzsaw133]

The spears she broke vanished and reappeared on the spears. "You like, my father invented these." The spears dropped and revealed several large men and strong-looking women, wearing the same attire that Haru was wearing.

[Cahalith]

She was a lot smaller then the other women, it wasn't that she wasn't strong it was that she just used her abilities differently then most other people--even back home she as smaller.

She was surprised by the reappearance of the spears Haru looked at him and made a face that by this point was recognized as contempt--she didn't like change.

[buzzsaw133]

"Ladies, get her cleaned up and I'll go with the guys and find some dinner." Brus looked at the other women, they obeyed him. "My wives will see to it that you are taken care of."

(About to go to bed, see you later.)

[Cahalith]

She looked at him "I can take care of my self." She told him and looked to the women, more then one wife-weird. She thought this whole place was weird.

((OOC: okay, night)

[buzzsaw133]

"I insist, hospitality is key to good relations." Brus smiled again as he walked into the climbed up a vine with two other hunters behind him.

(Night)

[buzzsaw133]

(I guess I'm not going to sleep.)

[Cahalith]

OOC: Okay- I am online just was being talked to by my honey)

Haru looked up at him "Thank you, but really it isn't necessary. You have done enough." She looked at all the women and wondered why on earth would they want to share a husband...

[buzzsaw133]

"Your not from around here, are you?" The tallest wife said. "I can tell."

[Cahalith]

Haru looked at the woman and raised and eyebrow then sighed "No, and I don't intend on being here too long." even though most might see Haru as rude, it wasn't necessarily her intention. She was honest, and didn't tend to sugar coat things.

[buzzsaw133]

Thetallest one tilted her head and smiled, her teeth were similar to a wolf's. "We don't take kindly to strangers, and you seem pretty strange to us. He is ours, if we see you even get close to him..." The other wives smiled the same menacing look.

[Cahalith]

She couldn't help but laugh out of amusement- they who where sharing Brus where worried about adding another to the harem (sp?)

Haru's laugh was pretty, and rather feminine specially in comparison to many of her other mannerisms. She wasn't manly Haru just was in many ways not your typical girl. She hated dresses and stitching and cooking, She would rather be the one out working and earning the bread.

She had by this point doubled over in amusement she looked up and opened her mouth to say something and then started to chuckle again--but managed to compose herself "really?" She shook her head unable to come up with anything else to say she was so surprised by this.

[buzzsaw133]

The look in the wives eyes was very serious. "He is a rare breed here, strong, smart and fast. Our sons share his power." The tallest wife gestured to the many youths fighting, climbing and otherwise training.

[Cahalith]

Haru looked at them realizing that they where being serious "Well the good news is women are the same where ever you go." She sighed and said "look I don't want anything to do with him. I just want to go home." She looked at the young men out there and tilted her head they had an interesting way of combat. the women could see how she was watching the boys she was analyzing them "he had an injury on his left ankle." She gestured to one of the boys that seemed to favor his right foot, and though it was not obvious unless trained tried to avoid the ankle being exploited.

[buzzsaw133]

"We know." They sighed as Brus swung from the vines and landed near the middle fire. He threw down what looked like two large boar.

[Cahalith]

Haru watched the boys fight, she was looking for a weakness in a combat that was based around strength- Endurance was the key the one that could fight the longest. She noticed that the people here where much larger then her and stronger she had to use her size to her benefit being smaller wasn't a bad thing it made you more agile and you where a harder target to hit.

She didn't react to Brus till she heard the sound of meat hit the ground. The people here where primitive but should not be underestimated. She Stretched her hands and arms over her head to make her spine pop she leaned backwards and felt some more of there vertebra crack She pulled herself up right. she was flexible and had much control of her body. She looked at him then the boar then the wives seeing what they would do.

[buzzsaw133]

The wives advanced on the meat with knives and saws. Brus walked into a small hut and got a barrel of some kind of beer. "To the hunt!" This was followed by a chorus of cheers and yells. "Alis, what did I tell you?" Brus looked at the tallest wife, who was still a couple inches shorter than him. "I thought I told you to get this girl cleaned up?"

[Cahalith]

Haru spoke up and said "I told her i didn't need help." She didn't like her but didn't mean she wanted to see her scolded. She looked at the women and shrugged "I still don't need help. just show me where I can get cleaned up." Haru was strange even for her plane, She got scolded many times because of her lack of acceptance for help. It was what made her both strong and weak.

[buzzsaw133]

"Over there, there is a freshwater spring." Brus pointed to a dirt path beside the campsite. "We move tomorrow, so get plenty of rest."

[Cahalith]

Haru nodded and walked to the spring Kneeling down she washed herself but didn't get into the water. She was not going to strip to bath when this was plenty officiant and provided at least a small amount of modesty.

She looked in the reflection of the water looking at her face- her skin was dark, not common among her home land she came from peasants blood- She was from a very poor family, and another mouth to feed. She looked more like the old Haru now that there was dirt on her face, and her hair matted and messy. Haru was glad when she was noticed it was the first time for something other then her face, and it would make her less of a burden on her family--one less mouth. She touched the water gingerly causing it to ripple her hair untangled and was up in a braid.

She began to work on cleaning her face.

[buzzsaw133]

Brus sat down beside the fire and set his axe on is lap. He began weaving protection spells and sharpening spells over the massive weapon.

[Cahalith]

Brus sat down beside the fire and set his axe on is lap. He began weaving protection spells and sharpening spells over the massive weapon.


Hikaru stood after getting cleaned up looked around to for a small thin stick in finding one on the ground she picked it up and wrapped her long hair into a bun then shoved the stick through it to keep it out of the way. With the dirt removed her light dusting of freckles became more visible. As did her age, She was no older then 17, but could be as young as 15.

Haru walked over to the group near the fire where Brus was. Her arms where covered in scars as was her tone abdominal. One in particular stuck out now against her clean skin. It looked like she as impaled with a very large weapon through her upper chest just slightly to the right. She looked more like a worrier with these scars and her toned body. She said "thank you." it was an odd thing to come from her- she thanked only when she was really sincere.

[buzzsaw133]

Brus looked up. "No problem, get some sleep, we travel tommorrow morning." He gestured to an empty tent a few yards from the fire. "I'll see you in the morning."

[Cahalith]

Haru nodded "okay." She turned and headed the direction that she was instructed to go. She hated this, having to rely on some one else. As she entered the tend she set herself down and leaned her back against something and slept propped up she couldn't help but say "its sad when this is the most comfortable way of sleeping." She closed her eyes and attempted to rest.

((OOC: I am going to go to the food market, I will be back later today.))

[buzzsaw133]

(You know there is a hammock? and See you later.)

After a restful night, Brus crawled out of his tent with his wives before the suns came up to rouse the others.

[Cahalith]

OOC: no i didn't know there was a hammock you never said anything about one

Haru was awake and stretching, she was used to getting up early and doing her daily ritual of keeping herself nimble and fit even when there was some down time they where expected to do such things. She heard noise outside the tent and poked her head out discreetly keeping low to the ground as to not be spotted just in case it wasn't some one who should be here.

She spotted Brus and his wives and came out from her hiding place standing she dusted herself off and watched quietly what they where do.

[buzzsaw133]

In a matter of minutes, all of the tents were packed up in bundles and strapped on the backs of some large, cow looking animals. "Guard the caravan and I'll scout." He leapt into the vines and swung off.

[Cahalith]

Haru knew how to pack stuff, She helped pack up the tent she was standing and loaded it to the cowish creature. She was used to farm animals she grew up dealing with them.

She patted it on the nose and smiled at it- She had to admit she missed the simplicity of not being trained to be a knight. She began to walk she scouted ahead and back behind and never seemed to be the same spot for too long. It was something she realized that if you stay put you are not seeing everything. Haru didn't like to miss things, So always kept her guard up.

[buzzsaw133]

Brus swung over to a rocky outcrop. The rock smelled like new, like something burning. He signaled the caravan to stop moving.

[Cahalith]

Haru noticed people stopping and wondered why- she hadn't spotted something. She looked up to see Brus perched up on a rock sniffing it...why does he have to smell everything. its like trying to take an untrained dog for a walk all they do is sniff...

[buzzsaw133]

The smell wafted over the caravan as Brus descended down onto the rocks. He didn't like being in the open, but he was curious. The rock was strangely warm under his feet.

He segnaled for the caravan to go around the rocks.

[Cahalith]

Haru was much more used to being in the open. Though she understood the need for cover she looked at him as he signaled for the group to proceed she looked over to the wives to see what they where doing.. before resuming her rounds.

[buzzsaw133]

He pointed at Haru and signaled her to come up there with him. In the mean time, he kept searching the sky for any sign of trouble.

[Cahalith]

Haru wasn't sure why he wanted her there but did it any way. She kept a close eye on the surrounding area she pressed out some of her own magic to heighten her sense of awareness. It was an ability she had learned back home when she was traveling with a group of hunters. it had always proven to be very useful.

[buzzsaw133]

Suddenly, Brus heard a roaring scream from above. He looked up and luckily, a dragon was distracted with another traveller other than him and Haru. He quickly ducked underneath a hole in the rock.

He signalled to Haru to get over to him, but by all means, stay hidden.

[Cahalith]

Haru looked back at the others who where traveling- She hoped they would be okay. She looked at him and ducked down dodging out of the way of sight she spoke very softly "dragons they have a weakness- everything does. if it comes near you look for the soft spot. some have tails, some are eyes, it depends on the dragon."

this was something she knew a lot about.

[buzzsaw133]

"I know, I've killed them before." He held up his axe, the handle was carved from a large dragon horn. "This one has been hunting my family for a while and now I finally found him." He smiled as the dragon pecked at it's new meal on the otherside of a large rocky barricade.

[Cahalith]

Haru wasn't sure if she should believe him--He seemed to be able to do everything, or at least act like it. It was kinda annoying but she suspected he was hiding something.

She Shrugged her shoulders "So then get your revenge then." she figured it was pointless to try and give any aid. If he couldn't handle himself then it proved her right, if he could it proved her wrong. But still it wasn't the right thing to do...to send him against a dragon. No way a single person could take them down--she learned that the hard way and was lucky it didn't take more then just a stab at her with its claws. They like pretty things and she was a pretty thing.

[buzzsaw133]

"Right..." He mused the thought of charging head on and getting charbroiled. "Not a chance." He pulled a small vial out of the bottom of the axe. He opened the vial and revealed a thick silver liquid. "I memento from my travels."

He dipped his finger in the vial and placed a small dot of the thick liquid on his hands and feet.

[Cahalith]

Haru couldn't help but roll her eyes- of course he had something. She waited and watched to see what would happen.

[buzzsaw133]

Closing his eyes, something was wrong. He looked over himself. The liquid metal wasn't working. "Hey, hit me with that rock." He told Haru pointing to a medium sized rock near her.

[Cahalith]

Haru looked at him and said "if you are sure." She bent down and through the rock at him pretty hard.

[buzzsaw133]

The rock struck him. He muffled a curse. "This such bulls**t." He wiped the stuff off. "Godd**n merchants."

[Cahalith]

Haru looked at him and laughed she couldn't help it she retorted back "You should never buy something with out knowing what it does first."

[buzzsaw133]

"Hey, my son bought it for me." Brus slowly back out of the hole and was not surprised to see the dragon staring him in the eyes. Brus intensified his gaze, if he was going to die, he would go down fighting.

[Cahalith]

Haru looked at him and said "you know it could be poison." She made a face and looked at the dragon. She stood up and spoke crawling out the hole "I will try and distract him you get your people out of here." She told him quietly. She knew she was going to regret this--but it was the right thing to do. She yelled at the dragon as she bolted--She ran really fast. It was surprising how fast she could run for some one so small "HEY UGLY!" She yelled at the dragon. To get its attention.

[buzzsaw133]

The dragon turned it's head, which gave Brus the oppurtunity to attack. With unnatural speed, he wrapped the chain around the dragon's neck and held on for dear life. He could have sworn he saw the dragon sigh seconds before it took flight.

(Thx)

[buzzsaw133]

Wind tearing at his face, he held on to the dragon. He pulled out a dagger and stabbed the dragon in the neck. Not his best idea...the dragon turned nose-down and plummeted to the ground. Seconds from collision, he pulled up and Brus almost fell off.

"HOLY S**T!" He yelled as he grasped the chain.

[DarkWolf]

As the dragon rose up a circle of glowing blue light filled with ancient symbols and runes within appeared on the creature's forehead. Below, arriving was a robed figure who held out his right hand and the same light and symbols appeared before his hand like a large disc. He was chanting.

"Galwaf ar y Ddraig Enaid. Gwrandewch fy ngeiriau, yn teimlo fy hud, ac yn cael eu cymryd."

He held out his left hand and a similar disc of magic light appeared but this time red. The red light symbols also appeared over the blue on the creature's forehead. It roared and struggled and came to ground trying to resist.

"Gofynnaf i chi, y Ddraig, gael ei mwynglawdd. Gwrandewch ar fy hud. Rho i mi dy enaid."

The robed figured brought his hands close and the two discs of magic light combined, becoming purple. The light on the creature's forehead also turned purple and the creature calmed down. All the magic disks disappeared. The dragon moved calmly to the robed figure and law down and bowed it's head inches from him in full obediance.

The robed figure procured a small black orb from a pouch on his belt. He held it out in his left palm as it glowed white and turned transparent. It levitated him and white circles of light rippled out and around the dragon which then also glowed white with a brilliant light. The dragon disappeared like smoke into the light which retreated into the small orb. The light faded to a small glow and within the orb one could see the dragon as though in a magical world lying down to sleep. The glow went completely and the orb turned black again. He pocketed the orb before letting out a small groan, falling to his knees.

He panted a few times before regaining composure and returning to his feet. He gave a small wave to Haru and walked up to Brus.

"Hello," he said, his voice with was smooth but there was a slight echo to it, a tone of power. "You seem strong and knowledgeable of these areas. I would like you to escort me to the nearest village where I could stay. I need someplace safe to meditate and prepare the herbs I have collected. Could you help me?"

Name: Raviel Nosgoth

Appearance: Dark blue robes with silver runes all over with a hood that shadows the face. The chest of the robes is open to reveal a black tunic and silver-chain necklace attached to a coin-sized diamond-shaped flat medallian with runic carvings and blue sapphire center. Although worn loose around neck it has a second chain around the neck which is loose but is always changing slithing to varying sizes to ensure it never slips off not even if upside down and will gain small spikes against anyone else who tries to touch it. Put simply it cannot be stolen or break/fall off. Under the robes his arms have forearm leather guards, shin guards, a good physique, clean shaven with long, shoulder length, black hair. The hair has a slight untidy wave to it and occassionally a few waved strands may fall over his face. His eyes are unusual. The whites (scleras) are dark grey while his irises are a brilliant blue that shine a little and almost seemed to be filled with liquid moving around or cloudy. The shine moves with the light. The irises are also thicker than normal and he has no pupils. He has dark blue patterns on his body, namely the arms, legs, nave, torso, shoulder blades and small of his back, his cheeks, and his forehead. In shadow they give off a small glow. Around his waist is a leather belt with various pouches.

Plane: He lives in Denui but is currently in Serrik to travel and gather rare ingredients.

Other: He is a skilled and powerful Mage. He possesses enormous power of various kinds and is reknowned throughout Denui. He is normally a loner and can appear polite but a little cold. He always seems to have his own, hidden, interests and can be manipulative. Few beings can face him and most last longer because he has a tendency to toy with them rather than go for a direct kill. He dislikes killing as he prefers to find something more entertaining or useful. He will only kill if forced, if the being is completely useless and he decides to further necromantic skills and supply. He is skilled in all forms of magic although using different types too soon can be more draining or can clash. He is hard to kill due to spending centuries using magics on himself. He has even achieved agelessness and is currently over three thousands years old but looks mid-twenties.

[Cahalith]

Haru watched dumbfounded as all that took place before her had- She had not traveled outside of her home due to the intensive training that was needed to become a knight. She had never seen any one do any magic of that sort. It was actually kind of frightening. She shifted as he waved at her- he seemed polite, but what did she know, so did the people that beat her and banished her for a crime she did not commit.

Running over to Brus, her feet quick and nimble avoiding tripping over the rocky landscape, She gave Brus a look that could be easily decoded as 'idiot' She shook her head and wondered how some one so reckless could have become chief of that village. Before she could say anything the strange man with the eerie eyes wanted Brus to show him to the Nearest village as well.

She was about to say something sharp, but as she opened her mouth she thought better of it- he just took out a dragon single handly with magic... Not some one she wanted to mess with. Brus being strong was one thing, She was quick and a decent enough combatant as long as using small short blades and her body. But magic she was not that powerful- She had a few spells she could do, mostly low grade healing, and self cleaning, magic was a hard concept for her to grasp.

[buzzsaw133]

"What herbs have you collected so far?" Brus picked himself up and stretched. His body gave a series of cracks that sounded like firecrackers. A dull green aura surrounded him and his bones replaced themselves underneath his skin. "Depending on what you have, we may or may not be in danger, considering that you used such powerful magic in the open, you have the distinct possibility of drawing in the Nephilim." He looked around tentatively. A loud thundering sound elevated from the ground, getting closer.

"RANACK!" Brus yelled as large beast wearing a leather harness burst through the undergrowth. The beast looked similar to the one that attacked Haru and Brus earlier in the woods. Except he had a dull green/blue glow surrounding him.

(Welcome DW)

[DarkWolf]

Raviel observed the woman. She seemed uncomfortable with him no doubt from his display. He smiled inwardly, not showing it upon his face or in his eyes, at how young she must be. He could do many impressive things and succeed at almost impossive tasks but it made no difference. Though immortal to age he was mortal still. Though possessing a magically altered body it was still a slave to death's eventual touch. She could fell him. Though wielding Godlike power even a benign pebble held such power to end him. Absurdly improbable but possible. If magic taught him anything it was that the most improbable can be possible and that is the true power. Everything deserved respect in that.

"Forgive my secrecy but I never divulge to strangers the ingredients I collect. It reveals more than I care to reveal. Do not worry though, Sir, I have taken precautions. Every article of containment upon my person is blessed to shield from outside influences and magics. Also please be assured that while my dragonic magic may attract all sorts of things that are able to sense it I am prepared for those as well. I have been been both servant and master to magic for more than three millennia. I appreciate your worries but they are not necessary."

He smiled as he spoke and his eyes were calm. He continued after a pause. "Will you be so kind to show me the way to the nearest village? If you require a reward then please do name it and I will see if I can provide it."

[Cahalith]

Haru noticed the creature coming, she hated this place and wanted nothing more to get out of here. Eying the two men carefully she was looking for a sign of weakness in the new one- The way one carried themselves could give away much. She took a hop to the side as the creature came towards them- She needed her knifes. Shifting her body to have a defensive yet none combative stance she prepared herself, still paying attention to her surroundings, and the two men.

He was so calm, she would have to focus hard on him to read him. Tilting her head to the side she straitened herself out when the creature didn't seem to be attacking.

"the dragon, how did you tame it?" She couldn't help but ask- Haru was good at minding her own business but sometimes curiosity got the best of her.

[DarkWolf]

The mage paid no mind to the beast as it approached and could tell from its obedience to the call and with the harness that the Jungle warrior had made the creature a beast of burden.

He eyed the woman carefully. She was trying to read him, to spot weaknesses. He could not help but respect her for that. She seemed more of a thinker than the man; she was somebody who studied people and assessed things more appropriately. She was cautious and that was always a good policy.

"It's complicated but I will try to explain as best I can. The magic I did was rather harsh in a way. It's more than taming a creature for that takes time but rather the magics are an attack to force obedience. It doesn't do harm, you understand, but it's simply invasive. Still, it was a much better practice than wounding or killing it.

"The magics were twofold. How do I put this..." He paused to think of how best to word the explanation. "Everything has a resonance, a frequency, a pattern of energy, that makes it what it is. When you match the resonance you can create an opposition of it and collide them - which cancels them out. In terms of a creature's soul the cancelling out may last only a moment and in that moment that soul is frozen or asleep in a way. The first part of the spell attunes itself to the soul's resonances and then reverses and collides. For that moment the soul is no longer controlling the body. The second part of the spell is then layed over the first to lock it and keep it constant while creating a channel, a link, between my magics and the creature's body. While that lock is in place the soul cannot regain control. Bodies are only tools, they simply receive commands and act on them. With the soul locked out the dragon's body is essentially vacant of control, and will only listen to the commands sent through that magic's channel. Commands that I send. When the spell is over the dragon will remember everything, for the body records, but in the meantime it is sleeping. It was quite difficult. More than any beast a dragon's mind and soul has resistance to such things. They are creatures with alignment to magic, so such spells against them are quite difficult. The spell is temporary - making it permanent requires considerably more effort. That is why I used the Dragon's Eye, it is an orb that can store a dragon in a pocket world where it will not age, cannot be harmed, and is magically nourished. Again, placement is temporary. Even if I forget to release it then it will be released on its own. The better thing is that unless I choose otherwise it will be released to the same place it had been. Even if I travelled far away, it would release in this place. By that time, we will have gone away and it will have regained its own control, its soul freed.

"In this manner, the dragon will return here unharmed and continue on its way while we are safe. It would have been easier to simply destroy it but I prefer not to harm creatures if it can be avoided."

He stopped for a moment as he realised something.

"Oh, I am very sorry," he continued, "where are my manners? My name is Raviel. What may I call you two?"

[Cahalith]

Haru listened as he spoke of how the spell worked, and shifted uncomfortably- the thought of her soul being put to 'sleep' even temporarily was not one she enjoyed, and more so the concept of her body being made to do things she would not have done on her own free will. "it sounds like a violation of ones will." She told him not caring if it was rude. It was wrong and that was that.
"you are forcing something thing to do what is against its nature. Its torture--which is worse then destruction" She shivered slightly though she was not cold at all.

She shook her head "how can you say the Dragon is unharmed!" She didn't understand "it remembers the feeling of being your puppet! She didn't mean to sound so harsh, but that was part of who she was, always analyzing things and sharp tongued.

Haru bit her lip and looked down realizing she had almost raised her voice. Despite her not caring if her words where rude she didn't want to show how much the situation was upsetting to her. "Haru." she told him still looking down beating herself up over her blunder.

[DarkWolf]

Raviel narrowed his eyes and smiled. There was levity in the smile but restraint in his eyes. He had no intention of hostility, for he understood her view, but he did hold contempt for her manner. Despite respecting them and being polite, he generally did not like people.

"I think our opinions differ on what is torture," he stated with careful choice of words, "because if I was the subject I would greatly prefer sleeping a few hours in a pocket realm to return feeling rejuvenated and nourished rather than being hurt. I have made the dragon go to sleep in a safe place for a very short while so it did not kill you. That is all I have done." At the last sentence he shrugged non-chalantly.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, Haru." He added. "If you still object to my interference I could free it now and let you two fight it instead?"

He tried to not sound condescending in that question and was genuinely desiring to help. After all, who was he to really interfere? He had no emotional attachment to the dragon and if they did prefer to fight it he was fine with that. Even if the dragon killed them it would be only a minor inconvenience to him. He could find and get to the village instantly if he needed to but that carried risk of alerting others to his presence and where he wanted to go. He preferred to keep a low profile and not let anyone know where he would be. He needed to properly prepare the herbs and meditate before travelling back to Denui. The less distraction during that the better. Magic was useful but it had a tendency to be easily sensed by other beings.

[Cahalith]

Sighing softly, she knew on some level he was right, but it still felt wrong. Maybe she misunderstood him- The Dragon was asleep, is what he said, was its soul able to remember its body being moved. She still looked down feeling very childish, She hated feeling like that.

But truth be told she was a child, despite how much every one around her demanded her to grow up, Haru was 16- a kid, and no matter how hard she tried she still had moments of immaturity. No matter how hard one trained and was taught they would still be what and who they where.

She shifted and gritted her teeth to say "my apologizes Raviel, I must of misunderstood you." She did not like the idea of getting help from Brus, she did not like the idea of having to rely on another for help and even more so disliked being wrong. "I just want to get home, and I am impatient." She knew it was a lie she was a very patient person and that lying was wrong but she needed to gain the upper hand here, He was much more powerful then her with his magic, and he could just let that dragon out and have the beast gobble her up, then where where she be...Dead, and proven guilty for something she did not do.

She looked over at Brus and said "What do you use for currency here?" she just realized she needed to buy new weapons she had been stripped and left for dead, and she really wanted her clothing back, not these silly excuse for covering. her Clothing was indeed easy to move in that was how she thought. With out thinking she was doing anything her clothing shifted back to her usual black modest attire.

She paid little mind to it and seemed unaware until she felt a little warm...And looked at her self suprized looking at Raviel she narrowed her eyes in confusion did he do this?

[buzzsaw133]

Brus leapt onto the creatures back and smiled. "If we are headed to the Village, then you two need to come with me." Brus disliked people who overestimated their abilities, and even more so when the Nephilim are involved. "Tell me boy, have you ever fought a Nephilim?" Brus ignored the large scar on his side that reminded him everyday what they were capable of.

[DarkWolf]

Raviel noticed the woman narrow her eyes at him after her change in clothing. Did she think he did it? He found that a little amusing. He made the assumption her clothing had been changed by this Jungle man fellow. Such simple trickery could easily be dispelled even by those without magic by mere will. If she had desired her old clothing it would have returned if her will was stronger than the spell.

When the jungle warrior climbed into the beast's back and made his comments Raviel was irked a little. He gained immediate dislike of this individual.

"Boy?" Raviel narrowed his eyes and his polite smile was quickly gone. "No matter your age any being you encounter that is older than three thousand years should not be called boy. A little respect goes a long way. I'd ask why you keep mentioning Nephilim. They're minor pests and easily dealt with. But then you had problems with a mere dragon so it is of no surprise you feared the Nephilim. How silly. Or do you wish to prove how better you are than me and slay one with great ease? Would you like me to call a Nephilim here?"

Raviel smiled, raising his left hand with palm upwards. A bright blue sphere, ni bigger than his palm, appeared floating above his hand with two gold rings of ancient letters revolving around it in a criss-cross fashion.

"Or perhaps you could face both the dragon and the Nephilim at the same time?" With these words he used his right hand to procure the Dragon's Eye orb and it began to glow white, float, and turn transparent - the dragon from earlier visible within it still sleeping.

"It's up to you, Jungle man. I faced and conquered things far beyond these in my many years as the most powerful sorcerer of the Denui realm!" The echo of his voice became greater, the air around seemed thick with tension as winds began race around and the clouds above darkened from an instant storm. Lightning jumped from cloud to cloud as the thunder began to boom like the drum of a God. "Do you want to call me boy again and prove you can defeat these creatures as easily as I or would you like to show a little respect to somebody who helped you and only wishes to know where the nearest village may be? Ego or respect, make your choice."

[buzzsaw133]

Brus stood there, staring blankly at the mage who seemed to believe that he was all-powerful. He smiled and with a gleam in his eyes, he dispelled the mage's magic. "In Denui, you may be the greatest, but here, your prey to the same beasts that attack me and my wives." Brus grew a little annoyed by the mages arrogance, but he kept that part to himself.

"The Nephilim here are considerable stronger than your poor excuses for beasts. I have seen the Tower of 4 Winds, I have worked for the Cabal of the Black Wing, I have seen your magic at work and it is a muse at the least." He grabbed the reins of Ranack and looked at both Haru and the mage. "Are you coming or what?"

[DarkWolf]

Raviel pondered what the Jungle man did but his magics remained in effect, the Dragon's Eye still glowing and the blue sphere still there floating above his palm. The storm remained too, the claps of thunder booming almost deafingly around them.

"I care not for your achievements. I care that I not be called 'boy' by some arrogant Jungle man who still hasn't even had the manners to bother with an introduction. Are you done fluffing your feathers like some silly peacock?"

Raviel did not know what this guy's problem was. Was he intimidated because he calmed a dragon which tahe man was having trouble with? Or did he dislike politeness? He wasn't sure. He considered it a prime example of why he didn't like people.

((OOC:

While you can make an attempt to grab people or control their magics like dispelling it is up to the owner of those characters to decide if your attempt is successful. This is why Cahalith can freely decide to dispel Brus magics on her clothing - you had no authority to state her clothings changed to begin with. You cannot control a character in any way. You cannot say you successfully grabbed them, or carried them, or changed their clothing, or dispelled their magic. Such things are only invitations which those others can accept or decline.

I chose decline because:

1) Raviel is a mage of thousands of years - his magic cannot be dispelled easily by anything, likewise he cannot dispel magics of other thousands of years old magic users easily.

2) The powers you describe to dispel his magics are outside of what you have described for the world setting - you say denizens of Sekkil are Jungle people, with Shaman like powers, a focus on nature. These magics cannot even interact at any level with Dragonic or Angel magics. You also placed focus on Denui being the place for mages, the theme was magics. You're going against your own world setting.

Sorry but no. His magics have NOT been dispelled. Please follow larp rules. Thank you. ))

[Cahalith]

Haru's violet and gold eyes widened in amazed horror as her jaw that had been tightly held shut could not help but part slightly. She watched the clouds began to rumble and heard the crashing of what sounds like angry Gods.

She knew she didn't know this man very well, but she did not want to die here and because some one else made a mistake she had to do something, and quick!

She opened her mouth as she lifted both hands up in the air and started towards the man who controlled the sky "Raviel PLEASE!" She mustered to say, she was not one for begging but she was desperate, unsure of weather she should beg or try and reason. Reason was less humiliating. She would use reason.

"You know he is weak, you don't have to prove it! what greater sign of power then mercy." she told him as she eased closer keeping her potion that of none threatening.

She watched for his reaction and then spoke again "he is egotistic, his people have shared they think he is the strongest and smartest of his kind. Would that not alone cause a complex...Let him live and you will be showing much more strength"

She hoped this worked and paused giving him a chance to respond. She did not want to have to beg. All she wanted was to go home and clear her reputation. NOTHING would stop her, not even death.


OOC: You trying to dominate the story with your character being more powerful, isn't going to make people want to play with you. Just because you are the Thread starter and created the world doesn't mean your character is god...

[DarkWolf]

Raviel listened to the woman. Mercy had never really entertained him as an idea. Then again he wasn't really against it. She wanted the Jungle man to live and he would prefer to get to the village without magical guide or transpart to reduce risk of being sensed by magic-attracted pesky critters. While seeing the man fight against a dragon and Nephilim would be entertaining it would probably be better to avoid that. With the dragon it would involve controlling it and that would upset Haru. He found her interesting and while he disagreed with her view about control he figured her necessary company. If he had to share the journey with this vile jungle man having her there too might make it less unbearable.

In regard to calling the Nephilim it would be better not to. While they were bothersome he had formed a heavenly contract with them decades ago. The contract was essentially a way to bribe them. In exchange for a nourishing infusion of power he could ask them to leave or for even more of his power he could send a request to the heavens and if a Nephilim accepted then it would be summoned under his control - until the power feast wore off and they'd return to the heavens. It was quite draining, more so than taking a dragon's mind, and not really worth the effort.

In light of everything he decided to heed the woman's words. With a nod to her he calmed down, returning the orb to its usual black and pocketed and the blue sphere disappeared. The weather effects also subsided.

"You are a wise woman, Haru," Raviel stated with a voice back to only a minor echo to it. "Wiser than I think you give yourself credit for. You place great value in life, more so than this Jungle man who still hasn't told me his name." He made a sideway glare to the Jungle man before continuing. "I apologise if I upset you at all. Is there anything I can do to help you, at all?"

[Cahalith]

Haru let out a sigh of relief, she wouldn't have to resort to violent or painful graveling. She looked over her shoulders at Brus and narrowed her eyes with such ferocity it could make a grown man quiver with fear.

"I just want to go home." She said shaking her head, "only been here two days and I hate this place." She told him "the only thing that isn't different then home is the women. Catty and possessive." She let out a sigh and closed here eyes only for a moment trying to steady her emotions and not let herself go on a long winded explanation of what hell she had experienced for the past week before having been brought here.

She looked at Brus and said "His name is Brus. He found me when I was dumped here, and attempted my rescue." She made face of disgust "I don't know the area, and despite my protest he made a point that I needed a guide."

then a smirk played on her lips "I think he was nicer to me because he was hoping for anotehr wife." ahe was only joking, poking at the foreign culture and then rolled her eyes "Please will you come with us."

She looked at Brus with a shut it expression written on her face. "I am sure you two can work out a deal."

[DarkWolf]

Raviel was amused by her words and even gave a very small chuckle when she asked him to go with them.

"I'm guessing by home you mean a different realm?" He gave a slight smile. "While I can open portals they are very unsafe. I spent a very long time to create a portal I can use to travel but it only connects my home to a different realm and it isn't easy to change. I could take you to my home in Denui easily, but from there it would take a few days to safely change the portal to a different realm and recharge it. Portals are tricky things. They're not easy to create and creating them quickly makes them very dangerous."

He paused to remember building the portal at his home. It took a long time, even longer to get the necessary materials; materials which had been rare and expensive. Creating a stable, safe, reusable portal had been quite an accomplishment.

"Perhaps after we have reached and rested at the village I can take you to Denui and then to your home once the portal has recharged and switched to the right realm? However, I need to get to know you a bit more. Please don't my comment the wrong way. I am a very private person and I rarely allow people in my home. I'm sure there will be no problem and I do want to help you. And, yes, I will accompany you both to the village."

He smiled again but observed Brus unkindly. So long as that miscreant keeps himself in check! He thought to himself.

"If nothing else I think this will be an interesting experience." He commented with a half-shrug.

[Cahalith]

Haru nodded she knew how it was, She wasn't the most open of individuals either. She had always been very independent and despised the idea of relying on some one else, it made her feel like she was weak and undependable. if you do not find yourself worth saving you might as well have never been born.

It was her past that made her like this, jaded, cold, and a little suspicious. "I am from Astar" She sat finely "I understand privacy. I am not an open person, honest yes. But I work on a need to know bases." '

She also wasn't like the people,let alone the Knights of Astar, her skin was dark and freckled. Her eyes an odd color, and she was small even for a woman. But she was tough and resilient. Her blood would never allow her to marry a Knight, even if she could raise above her blood in status her past as a peasant would keep her unworthy for birthing a decent knight.

But marriage was the last thing she wanted to think about, She had other things that where much more important like clearing her name, regaining her honor and being allowed to study at their Academy to become a worrier for the King.

She began to walk the direction that Brus appeared to be headed in. She didn't know what to think about these men or how different all the worlds where...she only had been to one until now....and now...she might be traveling the planes just to get home.

[buzzsaw133]

OOC: Do I need to specify that different worlds have different mana, Brus has spent most of his conciderable lifespan here and learned to use the mana to dispel other magic. Denui magic he found particularly troublesome. Without proper training, Denui's magic could easily seize control of his mind. This alone would provide his with the neccessary skills to counter a display like yours.

HINT: Brus has travelled to every realm in the Multiverse. He does not let on that he is easily the same age as Raviel. Do you understand that all of our powers are equal. We are all walkers, we all have unimaginable power at the tips of our finger tips if we so choose.
******
Brus looked back on the two conversationalists. "We had better be in the city limits by nightfall or you will probably be some Shrouded animal's dinner."

(I know it's from MTG, but it works. WWW.mtgsalvation.com :search :Naya and you'll get a decent idea of this plane.)

[Cahalith]

Buzzsaw, I am done. I can't do this, YOU DID NOT write that information IN YOUR BACKGROUND. You are making stuff up just because you want it to be so. I don't care that you are the thread starter or this is your world. I am not okay with the rules being broken.

either you fallow the rules or I walk out.

[Cahalith]

Haru looked to the magic man, and shook her head. Brus always talks about how they would be come one else meal, she was sure that if she had her knives that would not be an issue. She could fend for herself relatively well. It was just that her body could not pierce flesh which resulted in it taking more time to kill the enemy.

She took in a deep breath to calm her nerves, she needed to get out of this jungle, and though she liked the idea of the quick fix to get her home... magic... it always made her uneasy.

She had not witnessed the same level of power that Raviel demonstrated in person. She had only heard her mother speaking of it. Her mom told her and her siblings if they couldn't behave she would sell them to a magic man and they would use them for their devious spells.

She knew her mom would too. She loved the woman but like every one else who was in poverty, there was great poverty and even greater temptation to do evil.

She looked at Raviel and wanted to ask the question but it was rude and she just got him to agree to not fry them both, so pushed the question to the back, and began to move forward.

[DarkWolf]

((OOC:

I'm in agreement with Cahalith. You're controlling other people's characters and rewriting stuff as you go. That's not what RPs are for. You're supposed to create a set character - and then play as that character in the story. That's why it's called Roleplay (RP).

I propose we have Brus stick to the profile setup: he's a Jungle Warrior who has great strength and shaman powers. And we can probably just either skip to the arriving on village or perhaps an event along way. It's up to you. If you agree then you can simply say Brus lead them to the village. If Cahalith is willing also, we can simply continue on. If you don't agree then it seems we're out of it.

It's your call to make. We can chalk this up to a learning experience - maybe you're new to RPs.

One final note: characters are not equal. They shouldn't be. If everyone is equal it gets very boring. Look at Cahalith's posts. Haru isn't as powerful as Raviel so look at how the character reacts - there's friendly acceptance but the difference in power makes her wary, cautious, perhaps intimidated. Is this not more interesting? It creates character dynamic. Also having characters of different power levels and types makes it more interesting to see how they can be challenged - they will have different weaknesess and strengths.

It's up to you how you continue. Ball's in your court, Buzz.))

[buzzsaw133]

(All I did was restate what I said before, if you want to leave fine by me. Should I restate it again...ok then... We all have immense power that has not awakened in us yet. Raviel and partially myself have learned how to call that power forth. Haru has not yet. If you wish for more information, I will post a thread with ALL the information you would need and any you might want regarding this story...sound good? Yes, DW, your character may be stronger than the rest of us, but that kind of power will have reprocussions, expecially in Bala-Ged or Kirar, partially in Serrik. I do however understand that a power difference is what makes the story worth it, but having some common ground is good for character development. Can we come to an agreement here and stop behaving like children :including myself: this RP needs cooperation in order to survive and we...I...lack that.)

As the sun set below the horizon, the fires of the city were visible on the cliff. Brus didn't like Raviel, it might be because he was another male intruding on his turf or the fact that, according to Brus, he had little, if any experience in these jungles.

"We should make camp for know until the sun rises, or else we'll be walking targets." He through his axe chain around a tree branch and anchored it to the ground, forming a crude hut. "Try to get some sleep."

((OOC:

You never made any mention of this in your setup. The only mention of the setup was the themes of the realms. Let's review:

Astar- A world ruled by fair and just knights and influenced heavily by tradition. Beings from this plane know the cost of justice and will go to any lengths to achieve it.This is a theme of Knights and order. No magic here, and I would assume magic is not considered a good thing here. Can they have magic potential? No doubt, but not as strongly as realms filled with magic.

Denui- A world of unnatural magic and power, this world is controlled by skilled mages who warp reality for personal gain. Beings from this plane tend to be intelligent, but very manipulative.Theme is magic, this is the realm of magic. Mages from here would therefore be the strongest magic users.

Serrik- A dense jungle plane where only one rule exists, "survival of the fittest". Beings from this plane are known for unbelieveable strength and shamanistic magic.Jungle, nature, animals are the theme of this. And, as you state, Shaman magic.

These are the realms are characters are from. Let's see if they fit...

Haru is from Astar. She has magical potential but it is weak, her focus is hand to hand combat and weapons training - she is trained as a Knight. Seems very fitting.

Raviel is from Denui and is a powerful sorcerer. He wields magic of the highest degree to bend things to his will, he is distrusting and manipulative and fond of secrecy. Seems very fitting.

Brus is from Serrik. He is a jungle warrior, which fits, but can also bend reality to his whim like Denui mages. Very UNfitting. Perhaps this can be explained in the Other section to describe why he is so different? Nope. Not a hint of an explanation.

You explain this godmoding away with "We all have immense power that has not awakened in us yet" and claim to have stated this. You haven't stated this ANYWHERE in the setup.

I'm tired of this. I asked for a choice, you made it. You chose the godmoding.

Please assume Raviel made an apology and used magic to leave or something. Or perhaps a Nephilim or "Shrouded beast" or something came and ate him. Whatever works for you.

I'm out.))

I second that being out. You where given a choice to play by the rules YOU set and where set by the forum...I am out as well.

Honestly I don't give a darn what you do.
