Tiel Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 OOC Hi Lord of Cheese man sorry our mod didnt work out, maybe another time!And Greywolf, sorry man bout the forest I didnt realize it was a desert, Elsweyr does have forested areas tho and I kind of meant this as a really hot and humid rainforest. B) Jack awoke with a pounding headache; the whole world was swirling round him and he felt sick to his stomach. Jack closed his eyes and tried to remember what happened to take his mind off the terrible pain. To be honest it was amazing Jack had woken at all, his body was suffering from the double punishment of the sleeping poisen of the Wild Eleves coupled with the strong and old ale of the Kajiit tavern. As Jack remembered what happened he cursed himself for being so careless. For one terrible moment he wondered if he was losing his edge to the onset of his maturing years. This thought was quickly banished from his mind, though he may never again see twenty, Jack Lethan only got better with age. Jack assesed his surroundings, he was in what could only be described as a tree house, but the floor he was on encompassed many trees; many trunks went through this floor and up to the next, looking like stone pillars in a Skyrim hall. From the looks of things it was dawn, that was good, he could only have been out a few hours. Perhaps with the light of day he could find the track of the hooded loner as he cut his way through the trees. Jack could not see any sign of his captors, also Jack was not tied up. This bothered him as it could mean the Wild Elves had no fear Jack could escape. For a moment he imagined many Eleves concealed in the green of the trees, all pointing those slender white wooden bows at him. He wondered what the Eleves wanted with him. He doubted his reputation, legendary as he might consider it, had reached this isolated and strange community. He checked his cloak, 'da*n', he muttered, everything was gone, even his short sword. While he was considering what to do next he heard a sound perhaps similar to a creature moving in the forest, then to his suprise, he saw a strange contraption being lowered by vines; it seemed to be a small open wooden shack. This contraption reached Jack's level and a stern, tall mer walked out, he seemed to be carrying much travelling equipment-some of it Jack recognised. In his arms he was bearing a large piece of shaped bark, used like a tray, this tray was full of food. Jack eyed this mer with interest... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObsidianKnight Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 Back in the village Titanius struggles to hold off the raiders. He is literally surrounded by Raiders, and blood flows from his multiple wounds, and poison has slowed him somewhat. As another raider leaps forward to attack him, a poisoned dart strikes Titanius just by the throat. Before he can pull it out, the poison goes to work.... and knocks him out.The raiders pummel Titanius, but forget that werewolves heal from their wounds..........

I Am That Is Matthias Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 Fangs come down from the roof of Shadows mouth and claws extend from his hands. "Nobody attacks a brother wolf and gets away with it he charges towards the raiders around Titanius. Any raider who got in his way was down before they could do anything. 4 raiders surround Shadow and start to menace him with spears one comes a little closer than the rest. This was his final mistake. Shadow grabbed the spear haft and shoved it back into the raider's midriff he then used like a pole to vault over the other three raiders. he slew one with the spear and then took out another with bite to the spinal cord. For his last move shaodw spun around and knocked out the raider with a right hook to the jaw and to swipes to the temples. He finally reached Titanius and started dragging him back to the burning Tavern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Of The Cheese Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 (at the strange hut) "greetings Jack, im glad you have awakened, a very restless sleep you had, you even managed to tear out of the vines we bound you with, im sure if i had not taken your sword you very well could have stabed yourself." yes this is finally my chance at to find the accursed one and get revenge he thought to himself. "im sure you wonder how i know your name..., well its a long and painful story, but i was once more than you see here. much more, i have heard many great things of you, i have one question to ask of you, i dont really know, much about this forest for i was traveling alone and i was suddenly ambused by these,...creatures, you can hardly call them elves, pitiful lot..., but i cant find the way out of here, all the elves are quite intimidated by me, but no matter how much i try i cant get an answer of how to get out, im thinking maybe you can help me with this problem, then i will help you in what ever way you wish, but then after achieveing that, i wish to go on my own to do some.....business...., and dont worry about the "elves" i told them that who ever lays a finger on you shall be, well, maybe that wouldnt be to good to discuss, i find that even the toughest of people can become quieazy and many other things from that toxin, (the only good thing about these elves im afraid...)"......"what do you say?"

ObsidianKnight Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 Titanius suddenly wakes up in the burning village. He looks down, and sees he's back in human form. "Oh, my head......" he examines, and drinks from a potion lying on the ground. "ah... that's better. i thought it was restore fatigue." Before Shadow realizes that he's awake, he puts on his armor, and examines some footsteps leading to the forest. "Da**, the raiders are going into the forest. Well, if im careful, i should be able to lift some good loot off them." Without pausing, he follows the trail into the woods, unaware that it's really Jack's.

Tiel Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 The first thing Jack did was removed his dagger and other possesions from the bark tray, quickly ensuring he could defend himself until sure of the mer's intentions. He generally distrusted people who knew his name; consequently, he distrusted most people. 'Well master mer, it seems you have me rather at a disadvantage, you know my name but I do not know yours. In my opinion, you are telling the truth, it also seems I have you to thank for keeping these Ayleids in order, and recovering my weapons. I consider that a debt to be repaid - and I am no man's debter. Therefore, Jack Lethan, courteous outlaw and dashing rouge - not to mention an expert pro-active redistributor of wealth- is at your service, till such time as my debt is repaid - after that I will only remain in your company if there is a chance of profit.' Jack have his best professional smile, and he meant every word, though the smile always helped if someone needed convincing. He then gave a thought to how long it had been since he had the chance to use that smile on a woman - too long. He sighed. Jack happily ate the Wild Elf food that had been brought to him. It tasted bitter, but he felt norished by it, it appeared to be a kind of soup made out of leaves or herbs. Jack stood up, feeling refreshed as he downed some scented water. All ready and equipped, he was ready for a nice, pleasent trek in the bight dawn of the ususally humid forest, for the time being he had decided against tracking the dark loner, at least until the current business was over.

ObsidianKnight Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 Titanius moves from tree to tree in the forest, muttering to himself, and following Jack's trail. "Strange, only one set of footprints now.... oh no, I've wasted all my time on nothing." He starts to leave the forest when a pair of darts fly down from the trees, striking him in the heart and throat. "WHAT!?! Whos.... ther.." he collapses.Titanius wakes up in a hut, hanging upside down, for a few moments, to find a pair of wood elves examining a set of scars on his back and arms. "werewolf..." he hears them growl, before he faints again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Of The Cheese Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 "well jack, if killing a false king and killer of kin then taking the throne, securing innumeral amounts of wealth and small elven trinkets sounds good to you...then you might wish to come with me... but the choice is your's, i do believe you help would be quite appreciated..." the figure said with a smile..."and if you'll come this way, this is the exit..." as jack and the figure walk towards the exit of the strange clearing the figure invites jack to lead the way out....as soon as they reach the end of a the clearing(theres one way out) a loud TWANG is heard as a poison tipped dart is hurled at jack striking him fully on his chest. jack goes crashing down...."sry jack, but hey you no, i needed to get out, so now i am, and well, have fun back here....hmmm...isnt this a lovely short-sword.....i think i must have it...and i dont think i shall have to worry that poison is very strong, i imagine youll out for a week or so, if you were less a man, well it could kill you, and maybe it will, but hey, ive heard good things of you...." the figure walks off, humming a old elvish song, with a slight skip in his step... he thought to himself, jack you maybe good, but you can never beat an elf..... *edit*OOC:no no nothing against you tiel, i like you your a good guy, just want to make this interesting.... now your still at the camp and so is obsidian.....*edit* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiel Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 OOC Dam*it! lol, last time I'm friendly to introduce a new character! I knew Jack would never have trusted your're Elf! lol nevermind, but no-one crosses Jack Lethan, Lord of Cheese! You're going to be in trouble ;) Jack awoke with a thousand curses, why had he trusted the Elf. He put it down to the variety of poisons currently flowing through his body. Maybe he had lost his edge. He would be a laughing stock to his colleagues; that was for sure. Jack had used his most cordial manner when talking to the Elf, making him look even worse now, and even more the fool. However, the Elf's behavior puzzled Jack, why give him back his equipment only to take it away again? Why posion him twice? This behavior was not logical. It signalled either a great deal of complexity in this mer's intentions, or mental derangement. Jack decided this was no time to play the gallant bandit. Right now he would have to put his values and personality to one side, he had a job to do. Jack felt his leg and found the small but sharp knife he hid in a pouch strapped round his ankle. He began frantically cutting his way out of his forest prison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
