Habassa: The RPG

[Kethruch]

Corithalion checks once more behind, then moves up to the front line. If there are no openings, he waits, stormsword at the ready, in case there is an opening to strike through. "May Amalexia's grace fall upon us and ease the pain of those who are about to die." He says quickly under his breath.

[Emry]

Swearing under her breath at her ineptitude, Aeden fires off another arrow, again aiming for an exposed area in the armor.

[Malchik]

Kyrykki leaps between Avelyn and his would be attacker. He has his sword ready and the shield in place to block any potential attack. To Avelyn he mutters.

 

"Grab the staff and come back to help."

 

He looks at the new arrivals. When the two men sees there are six against them will they continue what must be a futile attack, run or grovel?

[LALALA]

Khar-tul runs to the enemies with his wakizashi in his hands.

[Switch]

Elbras charges for the man with the claymore as he is distracted looking for Aeden. He slices across the stomach area with Seler and hopes that he's done some damage, then quickly takes a defensive stance for the retaliation.

[Peregrine]

<ooc: this is probably my last post before I leave. I'll try to keep up with it, but limited computer access will make regular posting impossible. I'll start normal posting Jan 7th.>

 

To Elbras:

You slice at your target, hitting the unarmored spot just below the curiass. You easily slice through the light armor there, and cut deep into his chest. As you step back to defend, your target makes no attempt to attack. Instead, he collapses to the ground, all strength gone. As he dies, he makes a final statement, forcing out the words as breathing becomes difficult. "He is coming... you can.... not stop... this.... my life for...... *******" The last word can not be heard clearly, but it sounds both evil and nothing like any language you know.

 

To Aeden:

As you aim, it feels almost as if someone is holding the bow and guiding the hand on your arrow. This invisible force pushes your aim up slightly, then fades away as you release the arrow. The arrow flys through the eye slit in your target's helm, and from the way he drops to the ground, kills him instantly. As you look around, there is no sign of whatever it was that you felt.

 

To Ald Velothi Party:

As the two men die, silence once again returns to the shrine. No sign of other attack appears, and as far as you can tell, you are once again alone.

 

<edit, ooc: despite the snow arena spamming, this is still the longest thread on the forums! Thanks for staying in this for so long!>

[wesaynothin]

Avelyn nods to the party.

 

"Thanks for that. I guess a tripline with this fat thing doesn't work very well. I guess I shant be doing that again." He says, looking at his staff. "I wish I could do more with this thing too... ah well. Shall we get going?" He says, looking over the group.

[Malchik]

Kyrykki searches the bodies muttering: "I suppose we'd better go and see where they came from!"

[LALALA]

"I agree",says Khar-tul,"I suppose that our search will soon be finished"

[Emry]

"Yes!" whispered Aeden as she watched her arrow score, "Thank the gods!" She looks around after making that incredible shot to make sure there is no other immediate danger to the party, then climbs down to retrieve her arrows.

 

Walking over, she pulls the arrow from the dead man's eye and says a brief prayer to commend that man's soul to his gods. Wiping of the arrow on the dead man's clothes, she gets up, puts the arrow back into her quiver.

 

"A splendid little fight. Now back to the business at hand. I believe that we should stay together as a group and check out the corridor where these two "gentlemen" came from. We do not know how many are holding our benefactor's captain and I would rather not split our group up to go searching for her. There is safety in numbers. I do not want to be shorthanded if it comes to another fight. What say the rest of you?"
