Dagger of Symachus Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 OOC:Is suicide a viable option? IC:Volrath watched in awe as every Guardian turned in his direction. "They couldn't have detected me....right?" he thought to himself. He heard a rustling from above. He looked up just in time as a Guardian lept down, male without a father sword in hand. "It's too fast for me to draw my weapon." he thought to himself, as he positioned his left bracer between the weapon and his neck, though the force of the assault dented his bracer and pushed Volrath against the ground. He rolled on the ground to a nearby hollowed out log, knowing he only had a few seconds. He drew his wakizashis and cut a hole through the top of the log jumping out. OOC:First player character vs player character combat or er....player character vs player character controling assault squad of NPCs, so I don't know exactly how long I should go before letting you control your troops, so I'm just letting you now.

Shadow of the Fallen Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 OOC: While I should tell you, "death is never the answer!!" you are a vampire, and thus my enemy.. So I'll go with this instead, "yes." And btw, "the force of the assault" should have lopped his arm off :P but I'll let it slide. IC:The gaurdians blade gleamed again as he rushed toward Volrath, his teeth clenched and his eyes intent. Behind him, the others were following his lead, drawing steel as they closed in on you.. But the man before you was your immediate threat, his blade already arcing for your head. OOC: A little more then that is good.. I had longer, but it just mysteriously dissappeared all of a sudden... Oh well.. Let is also be known that 10 vampires is the equivalent of 1 swing of Kin'sharion's Haleberd. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger of Symachus Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 OOC:How about we say 8 vampires equals one swing from Altarus, five for every average Guardian. Fair trade off, eh? IC: Volrath saw the Guardian rushing towards him as he prepared to attack. His left hand was weakened severely from his bracer, but he could not discard it. He turned toward the Guardian and jumped into the air, flipping once, hitting the Guardians left eye. He landed on a branch about 10 ft. off the ground and began climbing the tree, leaping from branch to branch. OOC:I also have Guardian armor used to reinforce it. It's not all leather anymore. But I'll make sure that it hinders Volrath's combat potential. I'll have to use his right hand at all times, if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow of the Fallen Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 OOC: You're screwed bub.. IC:Part of the squad chases you on foot, perhaps 2 or 3, while several others you do not have the chance to count are moving silently through the tree branches below you. For not possessing your innate speed, they are all doing well to keep up with you. ------------------------------------------ Back at Mt. Tatu, Kin'sharion found the door to his chambers and entered, awaiting the arrival of Elrath and Makura. He sensed, somehow, that things were rapidly getting out of controll, and soon there would be chaos throughout the land. But as his mind strained to process these things, he grew weary. And it was nearly the night's end... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger of Symachus Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 OOC:Glad to see you have such faith in me. IC:Volrath quickly looked down, seeing several Guardians climbing the branches ready to attack. He looked franticly around, searching for someway out. He saw the fire in the distance. "If anything, it will at least give me a minor advantage, and if I can lure them away, perhaps I can get through to the rest of the vampires." he thought to himself as he jumped from the top of his current tree to a nearby one. "I'll have to stay off the ground. The Guardians have too good of a hold there". he thought, as he jumped from tree to tree to the fire. "Let's pray I don't get caught on ground with combat, or I am screwed." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow of the Fallen Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 IC: Volrath's thoughts were cut short but a rush of wind near his face. Then a volley of arrows that ripped through the tree and found home in branches in the hard bark. Apparently, the raid force was a bit larger then he had expected, and they had sentries and scouts posted along the routes to their camps and around them.. Suddenly, the fire wasn't looking like such a good idea as the hail of arrows continued to zip past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger of Symachus Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 IC:Volrath slide down the tree,"I'll have to destroy or at least damage those archers first." he thought to himself as he sprinted to the nearest one. He flipped over him and in mid jump slit the small area between his helm and cuirass. "It wasn't strong enough." he said to himself as the archer stood back up, seemingly unharmed by the attack. He ran towards the nearest tree and began jumped up from branch to branch, in an attempt for cover from the archers, and the soon to arrive ground forces.

MDRud216 Posted August 16, 2004 Author Share Posted August 16, 2004 shadow Kin' Sharion waited in the windowless room, he could feel the presences of both elratha and makura yet they had yet to enter the mountain. You can feel a stronger presence however, seeping in from the craks under the door and the spaces between the boards, slowely it is filling the room around you... but as you turn you see no one, nothing. "Kin!" a familiar voice inside your head fills your thoughts, the presence is now clear as you remember the old days, Kin was what the eldest always called you, and with that almost cheerful tone it was surely a sign of good news. "Kin' Sharion, I have good news for you..." and before the thought had faded the doors open behind you, a familiar figure in the doorway. Recent events have made a need for a reconsideration of our earlier decision... as it is clear to me, the vampiric city of Xiton is moving, similar things have been reported from other scouts that have arrived in the last few days." The Eldest paused to let his telepathaic words sink in... then in a bold and unhiding voice he anounced: "The Gaurdians will go to War!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow of the Fallen Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 OOC: The room is made of stone... All stone... And if he's supposed to seem a bit of his rocker let me know, because this could just as easily be you shoving us into battle instead of waiting on whatever else it was that you were going to do. IC:Kin'sharion was stunned by the words at first, but a slow, grim smile crept over his face after a few moments. But it was just as quickly replaced with suspicion. Why the sudden change of attitude? Why is he, for gods know what reason, cheerful about it? WHY IS HE EVEN OUT OF BED?? "I thought your wounds were grevious and would take time to heal," he stated flatly. "And yes, we must strike the vampires while they are out of their hole and out in the wilds... But is a full scale war nessecary?" -------------------------------------------- Pain ripped into Volrath's mind as an arrow ripped into his leg. Things were looking bleak..

Dagger of Symachus Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 Volrath saw the the closest Guardian archer and leaped from his perch on the tree and aimed his blade for the Guardian's eyes. He hit the left eye, temporarily blinding the archer as he screamed in agony. Volrath then executed a swift uppercut, blinding the archer. "He's blinded, but not dead." he thought to himself as he riped out the arrow from his leg. He saw the Guardians bow and arrows, and took them as he writhed in pain and confusion on the ground. He saw another archer and began aiming for their neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
