Cruor feels the shake too, and quickly says to Maya, "Don't you worry about being fast. I've survived the situations I have not by being slow... And once we manage to take this thing down, it appears to be just the three of us, I may just start to trust people once more, thus allowing you in on why I don't."

Silver drops down too all fours and starts running quicker, "I smell trouble" says Silver
"Shall I handle it?" says Twisted
"Be my Guest"

Although no one was around to watch, Silvers eyes turned from green to white as Twisted took control.

Note to self, split personalities, VERY good to know should I need to find a way to kill Twisted and Silver. Although there is still the matter of that Khale and the assassin...Thought Llervu as he approached seeing Twisted Silver's eyes change.

"Make that three, four." Said Baltis as he emerged from the woods. "I aplogize for my appearance, and Endar's abscence, the assassin's turned out to have....advantages I had not expected and I was unable to save him from slipping back to Oblivion." Said Baltis referring to his now tattered robe that was riddled with slashes and punctures, presumably from knives, daggers, and arrows. His body had many scars where the holes were, which were curiously a whitish color, similar to...bone.

"My magicka reserves are too low, I cannot hide any longer, I must reveal my true nature to you. I owe it to you, for leaving you at such a crucial time." Baltis raised his right hand and purple flames seemed to flow downwards from it, encompassing his body. When the flames dissapeared the robe was in perfact condition again, but instead of the Dunmer that everyone thought Llervu was, there stood a skeletal corpse with long, grey hair, a slightly rusted golden crown and several bands of gold addorning the body. "You see, I am a lich, this is the 367th year of my lichdom, I was 27 when I underwent the ritual of becoming."

Llervu levitated several knives, darts, arrows, daggers, and throwing stars beneath the robe, aiming atleast 4 each at every member of the party, warry of their reactions, he also gripped his daedric staff, secretly infusing it with great magics ready to summon his minions or blow the surrounding area to Oblivion.

"My skills may yet prove useful to you, so I suggest you don't try to get rid of me. And if you DO attempt to get rid of me, note that over the 394 years of my existance I've picked up more than my fair share of tricks."

slowly, very slowly an invisible shield began to envelop the back of Maya's neck.

"Those cards aren't magic! They use a Thunderflint inlay that uses static electricity to ignite the card!" Khale said to Maya. Then he felt the rumble. "What in Nimbus was that?"
After the rumbling receeded, the lich came out of the forest, revealed himself, and levitated several weapons. "Is that what you were talking about?" Khale said to the two, ready to ditch all of them should the need arise.

Twisted-silver eventually manages to catch up to the rest of the group

"well, well what do we have here? A lich threatening my comrades? Unacceptable, but I always love a fight, LETS GO COME ON!!!" grows Twisted

Drawing several wicked claws Twisted lunged at the lich.

[IxionInc]

As Twisted lunged at the lich, Khale seized the moment to pull out his bow and the deck of explosive cards.
"This," Khale said to Maya, "Is actual magic!" He then took the bow and cards, and smashed them together, both merging together like clay, the bow lengthening, and thinning out.

When all that was done, Khale was holding a large sword.The pommel was made out an 8-ball, four ace cards stuck out of the side of it, and the end of the blade was hooked.

Khale readied the sword, and pulled the 4 cards off of the large eight-ball. Four more regenerated where they came off. He threw the cards at the lich with a flick of his wrist, and they flew at him with blinding speed.

[XanAlderon]

Twisted smashes into the lich and they both fall over in a tangle of bones and fur.

[Zephyr Kronos]

Just before Twisted would have smashed into Baltis, he levitates himself.

"Oh for the love of Tribunal! DO NOT make me do this!!!"

Baltis's Daedric-esque staff seemed to course with a dark light.

"Ah, and Twisted, valliant effort, very fortuidous that I managed to get out of the way. I am NOT here to kill you, though I may if you throw any more of those infernal cards!"

<OOC the weapons levitated were supposed to be hidden as an insurance incase Baltis was attacked

If you want to spare them, you'll ask them to stand down, otherwise, be prepared to wake from one of your rages staring at their corpses Baltis sent to Maya telepathicly I hope you don't make me kill them...or you for that matter.

"If you could all kindly settle down we can get back to business, after all, what difference does it make that I am a lich? Cruor your an assassin and considered scum by all but your brethren and other people who hide in the shadows. Khale, your a stranger in this world and would probably likewise be treated like trash. Maya, you are a beserker and feared by most, typically to the point they won't even associate with you. Twisted Silver, you are what many would call in this day and age, possessed and would shun you. Why should you all attempt to destroy me? Which by the way, unless you happen to have something I CAN'T detect, which is unlikely, cannot hope to succeed in."

[PureSnipe]

"Let's hear him out. What more could it hurt to have another with us? And don't call me scum again. I may be an assassin, but I live by a code of morals, unlike the rest. I also work alone, and am not a member of any guild so that I can uphold that code."

[XanAlderon]

Twisted-silvers eyes go back to green.

"ahem, I didn't relise it was you, Zephyr, my apologies for Twisteds err behavior" says silver
"he was threatening our comrades he deserved to die"
"shut up, whether we kill him or not is decided by what he says now"
"fine"
