Kethruch Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 At the sight of the attack on Top, Auriel releases his hold on the statue and jumps to try to get between. "If it's a heart you want I give you one!!!!" He yells as he tries to grab the attacker in a healing embrace. Can I heal someone without a heart? he wonders to himself as he lunges.

Greywolf Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 Dion's patience and nerves had been strained to the limit, his eyes flashed a second as he reached out to call on the element of fire. There was no other heat source, so he used his own body's calling deep into it, hopefully being able to use it in this situation, if it was at all effective against these statues. "Top!" Auriel was too close to the statue ... Dion wouldn't risk hurting him, his whip was useless ... however he might be able to shield his friends. Reaching into his own heat he extracted it hoping to shield his friends in the element of fire ... hoping that he would be successful, hoping that it would be effective. Unfortunately, he didn't have enough body heat to shield everybody. He would try to shield his three friends. Dion was irrelevent at this moment, all his companions where between the attacker and himself. He would risk hypothermia, but hopefully the firey shields would persuade even stone itself to turn back ... stone ... TOP! "TOP! They are made of stone! Stone Top." Then Dion let his body heat flow from him, hoping the outcome was a success, either way he was going to risk freezing or burning alive. Foolish maybe, but he didn't have much time to choose an alternate form of action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peregrine Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Top just barely managed to hold back a few curses as he dodges out of the way. Auriel's courage was a noble idea, but not if he got himself killed! He began saying a few prayers for their success to any diety he could think of as he drew his sword. Auriel was in the way of a clear attack for now, but if he failed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted April 14, 2004 Author Share Posted April 14, 2004 Nothing helps. The creature in front of Top is somehow not really there. It's hand passes into Top's chest and he feels a momentary sensation as if his heart were frozen but it vanishes at once. The thing hisses: "You have one of the swords! But you will never learn the secret of the ninth sword from me. Not unless you bring me a heart; a live, beating, willing heart." Eyes almost insane with rage the creature screams: "Ruhir will live again. Fetch me a heart!" More calmly it adds: "The sword protects you from me but not my minions. Perhaps you will be mine after all." As 'Ruhir' vanishes the statues resume their glow. The only difference in the room from when you first entered is the cold. Not even Dion's spells has been able to affect it and it is still growing colder. You need to get out quickly. There is one other difference though. Someone or something is trying to get into the room through its only door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emry Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 "What are we going to do?" Tikita asks with a note of growing hysteria in her voice. Remembering the apparition from her room and its mentioning of asking the bones she cries out to the statue in front of her "Where can we find the ninth sword?"

Kethruch Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Auriel seems concerned over everyone's concerns about him. The hug hadn't worked, oh well. Still, he had to have tried. The scratching at the door did worry him, however. "What do we do now?" He says, his teeth beginning to chatter a little in the cold. "If we wait here a little while, whatever comest hrough that door isn't going to be able to differentiate between us and the statues.." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted April 29, 2004 Author Share Posted April 29, 2004 OOC>Peregrine has asked me to post for him until after 5/5. In fact it is a bank holiday in the UK so I will be away after tomorrow until 3/5 myself. So I do not expect too much to happen before he is back. In any event as you see below Dion and Auriel are in the line of fire. As you all stand there contemplating the events that have just occurred the door is broken from it's hinges. You see a skeletal warrior rusty iron dagger in hand. There are at least two others behind. They are quite mindless and obviously once intended as threats to potential thieves. Now all they see is you and you are to be destroyed. Dion and Auriel are nearest to the skeleton. Fortunately for you only one can enter the already crowded room at a time. It is a question of kill or be killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kethruch Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 Auriel wonders what healing a thing that is already dead would actually do. Even so, he thinks to himself, it would worry the others and I don't know how quick it would be. That dagger, though rusty, could do significant damage to one such as myself. How can I help? He soon comes up with a plan. He stands directly behind Dion and looks for a spot for him to place his hand on Dion's flesh. Once he finds one, he waits for the opportunity and places his hand there. "Dion - whatever damage you take should be healed, as long as I am in contact with you - fight defensively, and we may be able to get out of this unscathed."

Emry Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Knowing she would only be in the way, Tikita moves back to give Dion and the others more room to fight. Recalling what the "Ruhir" statue said, she shouts, "That thing wants the swordpoint. Maybe we can use the sword to hurt the skeletons." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greywolf Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Dion just groaned ... he had a whip and throwing knives ... some good against animated inanimate objects. That left little for the defensive. Hopefully he would be fast enough, and strong enough to do some damage. He pounced forward, grabbing the armed arm with his own and smashing the skeleton bodily into the wall. At the same time he summon the heat back to him. He was going to try something else ... an explosion. Centering his attention on the hallway, himself trying to contain the hard skeleton against the wall ... the knife away from him, Dion summon the heat he had recently sheilded his friends with and attempted to create a concussion blast capable of breaking the other skeletons in two ... at least that was his intent ... then again he would probably be caught on the fringes of the small blast. Dion just hoped Auriel could heal him ... he love life and didn't feel like dieing today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
