creatures of the night

[shade]

story line
the year is 2100 C.E. most of the earth has been overrun by strange creatures such as vampires undead and werewolves. the only remaining countrys are England, Japan, and Australia. however there are small walled in settlments for humans who couldent make it to any of the countrys. the story of the elders is told by MBase
Races
Vampire: their are two kinds of vampire, an elder who has liven for thousends of years and feels that humans must be kept alive as a food source, than theres a new younger genoration of vampires many have been driven mad by their bloodlust, but some believe and follow the elders. there are only three known elders one for each magic. unlike many myths these vampires are not killed by sunlight but are as easily killed as a human (not county super speed and strangth) A human can only be turned into a vampire by drinking a vampires blood

Werewolf: like the vampire they have elders and a younger genoration. the elders and those who follow them have more control over their feral side and can change at will. although some who dont follow the elders can also change at will most only change during a full moon and loose control of themselves. (ditto on the vampire killing thing) ((ditto means same as or same here)) a human can only be turned into a werewolf if its saliva gets into their blood stream

Undead: most of the undead in this world are mindless killing machines, but some still have their brain intact and can think like a normal human, however most dont remember who they were before death. some even offer protection to humans in exchange fo an acational infant (in times like this they are willing to do it) a human can only turn undead by...well dying and being rison either by necromancy or wondering clouds of radiation

human: theres not much to say most humans are still in the wilderness (term for anywere not in a country) however some have learned to use magic and necromancy to control undead

Magic
blood: blood magic is only used by vampires it requires the vampires blood to use it the most common use is a blood sword which requires a drop of the vampires blood.

shadow: manly used by vampires but any other race can learn it. it is necromancy in short

fire: not much to say allows you to control fire this is the easiest magic to learn and is widly used by humans


Name: Ares/ Elder of Blood
Gender: male
Age: pretty damn old
Apperance: looks like he's in his tweantys. has red hair and eyes. his hair goes down to his waist. he wears a black overcoat, an orange T-shirt, and tan cargo pants
Equipment/skills: has a large sword (much like the buster blade but red and see though much like glass) that he uses blood magic to summon. has mastered blood magic
Backround: Ares was once know as the god of war by the greeks in truth he was only a vampire. he has been around for some time and considers humans to be below him, however he allows them to live under his protection in exchange for blood (he dosent kill them just drains a little blood to keep him feed) he realizes the importance of keeping humans alive as they are the vampires main food source. he has however changed humans into vampires out of mercy but very rarely.

((note any similarities between my characters and various animes and games is either intentional because i like those elements or accidental because i wouldnt know of a character with said traits. now that that's out of the way, i guess i could try out this one, although ive never been much of a vampire fan.))

Name: Drax ((i wanted to avoid useing Xaris..... again.)
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Appearence: wears a silvery white coat with a hood ((imagine Organization XIII coats, except silvery white)). has long spiky green hair. wears hood when not at a city, town or shelter.
Background: A British gambler kicked out of many cities. he wields a pair of long daggers in combat and despises vampires. after getting kicked out of a Japanese city for breaking the bank of the local poker pit, he was approached by a vampire hunter wearing a silvery white coat. the vampire hunter had been watching Drax for a while. the hunter saw what he could do in a fight, and he saw Drax's skill in gambling. the hunter offered Drax the opurtunity to join a group of 13 vampire hunters called the 13 Blades. Drax accepted and was given the number 7. lucky 7. the most aptly given number of the entire group. soon after finding member number 13, internal disputes with their leader caused the group's strength to decline. the group disbanded, and the members have become the hunted. at least 6 members are dead, the rest are missing. Drax was last seen gambling at an English pub.

The werewolves seem to have no purpose within the plot

[MBase]

OH FREAKING CRAP!

I have just come to a realization. I have decided Creisyl should be as cross demensional as possible. For those who didn't know, I wrote the end to Escape from Necropolis, and I wrote two endings. One where everyone dies, and one where (almost) everyone lives. Now, I have a continuation of when he lives... but perhaps an undead Alien who doesn't remember his past..... This is sounding fun, but I'm not sure I want to branch in this many directions. What do ya'll think?

EDIT: OR! If you people have seen my art request around these parts you are familiar with my Dark Knight. I could bring in the Elder of Shadow, a Dark Knight type guy. Choices, choices... (Still, what do ya'll think?)

EDIT 2 - The Son of EDIT: Know what? Even though I like the first idea, I think I'm gonna go with number two. I gots a plot idea. I'll post the character sheet tomorrow afternoon. I may still bring Creisyl in later, though....

sorry I forgot to put it in the werewolves and vampires are at war fo control of europe and asia, for this reason whe werewolves are attacking and killing as many humans as possible to try to starve them

[MBase]

Name:Xeryme ((pronounced Zair-reem))/Elder of Shadow
Gender: Male
Age: Really, really, really old.
Appearance: Think a Dark Knight, (http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a316/ONE8/MBasesRequest.jpg) with really big black angel wings. (http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d37/2wierdo/MBaseWingedKnight2.jpg) ((Armor wise, go more with the first one. That is also his facial appearance, what with the white hair and green eyes and such.))
Equipment: Two swords, that since they are made of the darkness he controls, he can summon at will. Both are large jagged things, with pith black blades. In fact, they emanate pure darkness. He uses them in a very flashy and extreme way, 'cause, as you know, shadow and darkness are a visual thing, and he makes that known.
Background/Entrance to RP: Somewhere in what was once Brazil, there is an encampment of moderate size. It is raining, as it often does these days. Within one of the small houses is a young girl, perhaps 6 years old, and an elderly woman sitting around a fire, sewing. Both of them are normal in appearance, except for one thing - The girl has extraordinarily bright green eyes. She stops sewing and looks up to the window of their refuge home. She gets up and walks over to it, and stares at the rain for a moment, then turns to the elderly woman and asks, "Grandma? Why is it always dark here? I hear stories from the traders about the sunlight... but why is it never here?" The grandmother looks up and says to the girl, "Oh, my dear, the sunlight is here, it's just... there is shadow that is cast over this whole country." The girl looks puzzled. "A shadow? But how could a shadow cover a whole country?" The woman looked past the girl and out the window, into the rain that pelted down on the unpaved streets. "Well.... it's a long story, but I suppose we have time."

"A very long time ago, there were three terrors that came upon this entire planet - The Demon of Pain, The Dragon of the Inferno, and The Angel of Darkness. Now, these three beings were not of this world, and could not fully enter it as they were, but that did not stop them from wreaking havoc on the land." The girl questioned, "Reeking havik?" "It means doing very bad things," The woman clarified. "They were able to get into people's minds and force them do things they didn't want to. They also used their powerful magic to destroy cities and settlements around the world. We are still not sure why they did what they did, or even why they worked together as they did, but we knew one thing: They had to be stopped. Three very brave men stepped up to the task. They each went their separate ways to find each of the three monsters. What they did not know was, this is exactly what the monsters wanted, as to this point, they had not been fully able to exist in this world. When each of the three men met their respective opponent, the monsters fused themselves into the men, taking control of them, and entering into this world in full.

"This, however, did not last long, as the monsters had underestimated the men. The good will of each of these men was very strong. They battled the monsters within their own minds, until finally; an outcome no one had expected surfaced. The fight put so much strain on the bodies of the men that they actually died. But this did not last either. Each body was then reborn anew, neither the man it once was, nor the creature that had attempted to take them over. The three men became three entirely new beings, no longer human, but no longer monsters either. The man fused with the Demon of pain became the Elder of Blood. The man fused with the Dragon of the Inferno became the Elder of Fire, and the man who became one with the Angel of Darkness became the Elder of Shadow. We don't know exactly what happened to each of them after that, but we do know that is around the time that the Vampires first appeared. Eventually the three men made themselves known again, as they began to take over different parts of the world using their magic and vampire minions.

"You see, the Elder of Shadow was the one who took over the lands we are in know, and his very presence casts a shadow over all that surrounds him for miles on end. This is why we never see the light of day, and are always drown in this darkness and rain. We would leave if we could, but with ships running the seas so little now a days it seems like we may never leave..."

-------------------------------------------------

Xeryme sat in his large throne staring into a conjured ball of darkness which showed the image of the Grandmother and the girl speaking in their small home. A skeletal looking person in nice robes was standing behind Xeryme and staring into the orb as well, and then spoke, "It seems as though your daughter now knows of you history, my lord." Without moving an inch, Xeryme responded. "Indeed.... Indeed it does..."

[Raldios]

((ok lets start if you want to join your welcome to))
Ares looked out towereds the ocean. the humans were planing on assulting his stronghold. his stronghold in the country of greenland but the bitter cold made his sodiers stronger and now the humans he ruled were rebeling.
"sir they'll be here in an hour"
"then lets hope our messenger got to the elder of shadow
--------------
a man in a red cloak aproached the doors of the elders castle the guards stopped him, but let him in after he showed the emblem of blood he aproached the throne
"my lord the elder of blood Ares asks for your aid in battle"

[MBase]

Xeryme was watching his smoking black orb until he heard the man speak. He responded to the messenger, "Ares, eh? My, my, what have you gotten yourself into this time? Well I suppose standing him up would be rather rude... so I may as well go. Messenger, you are free to return to your lord." Xeryme stood up and a cloud of darkness formed around him. When it cleared, he was no where to be seen.

Ares surely noticed when the sky suddenly took on a much darker tone. He turned to see the dark cloud Xeryme had disappeared in, but as it cleared this time, the Elder of Shadow was standing there. When Xeryme saw Ares in front of him, he smiled and said, "Well then. What seems to be the problem?"

[shade]

"wolves...they incureged the helots the rebel ((I've disided to use alot of greek words manly sparten in Ares diologe))...my soldiers werent strong enough and theyare approching my keep. I can't risk a battle but I must protect my son. why I let phobos treat them like this I'll never know but what he started I must finish but I cant do it alone"

[MBase]

Xeryme raised an eyebrow. "You want my help to fight... but you don't want a battle. What exactly do you suggest we do? I wouldn't mind fighting myself, but if you are trying to keeps things calm..." Xeryme trailed off.

[shade]

Xeryme raised an eyebrow. "You want my help to fight... but you don't want a battle. What exactly do you suggest we do? I wouldn't mind fighting myself, but if you are trying to keeps things calm..." Xeryme trailed off.
"calm no I relish battle however...I'm fighting a loosing battle the undead armys are dominating my territory and a cant turn enough to make a new army ((turn=turn into a vampre)) I've been forced to leave the battle wont be long but we need to buy time to get the rest of my soldiers of this forsakon island...I've been beaten inn battle"
Ares sighed
"just help me by alawing my people to live in your lands they are thirsty ever since the undead came I've forbedin them from drinking in fear of increasing my enemys size...I've never asked for help before but I'm afraid I have no chooce. my son phobos he caused all this by allowing the undead on this island and so he will lead a phalinx agianst the advancing undead while we capture the helots who rebeled, rhey must be drained to sustain my people without them we are lost"

[MBase]

Xeryme sighed. "You know Ares, it isn't like you to let things go so bad so quickly, but oh well. I suppose it can't be helped now. I will allow your people to enter my lands... but I think I may be able to assist in you battle now. If you haven't forgotten, I am the master of darkness. I don't think you realize just how much these humans depend on sight...." Xeryme walked over to the edge of the balcony they were on and looked down upon the loosing battle being fought at the castle gates. He raised his right hand into the air, and a shining ball of darkness formed above it. "Observe." Xeryme said. Suddenly, hundreds of tiny dark streaks shot out from the ball and headed down to the battle. Each streak went to a different head of a different human below, and when it happened, they would stop, then begin to attack wildy or try to run in some direction. Xeryme turned to Ares and said, "You see, Ares, without the gift of sight, these attackers are no more than sheep to the slaughter. Of course some of the stronger willed ones will break through the darkness, but I assure you, you are no longer fighting a loosing battle." Xeryme grinned. "Now, is there anything else I can help you with?"

[Cloud3514]

Drax was sitting on a ship heading for greenland he stowed away on. he was kicked out of another city. he held the bag of gold he won in front of him. "if they dont want to lose their money, they shouldnt gamble with me." Drax sighed. "i wonder what happened to the other Blades."

[Raldios]

"General Yang, a darkness has blinded the human army."
"He is getting confident"
"Attak the Vampires now"

[shade]

Ares smiled
"no I think youve done your part we will arrive in one week"
Ares bit his thumb a small drop of blood came out
"lets see how good they are now"
a small spirel apeared in the sky and suddenly began sucking the blood threw the very skin of the helots
"comander signal the retreat this battle is lost but I will return with numbers twice this much"
"yes sir"
a horn sounded in the distanse and Ares forces begantheir retreat to the boats

[Raldios]

"He's turning them into Vampires!" Yang shouted "Attack now!"
Wave after wave of Werewolf soldiers started swarming the humans. Yang howled at the sight of his soldiers.
"Ares is mine..." Jumping and climbing up the castle, Yang said. He landed 10 feet behind Ares.
"Ares...Prepare to fight..."

[MBase]

((Raldios, I'm going to go ahead and tell you now: Fighting an Elder one on one is not smart. Especially if another Elder is there with him.))

Xeryme looked up at the new arrival. "My, my, what's this now? A cocky werewolf trying to take on an Elder? I think this may be a chance for a good show! Ares, what say you? Are you willing to entertain this wolf?" Xeryme had a wide smile on his face.

[Raldios]

((Eh, my guys cocky...))

"Creatures of the night! Come under me!" Yang shouted. sumutaneusly skeletons started climbing up the castle walls,forming a wall between Ares and Him.
"March! March for you ruler!"

[MBase]

Xeryme had already walked over to the blacony's edge and sat down to watch. As the skeletons came up the walls, both Xeryme's eyebrows raised in a sarcastic sense of surprise. "Oooo! Fancy! I was right to say this would be fun to watch!"

[shade]

Ares smircked
"do you think you can defeat me?"
he bit into his thumb and let a drop of blood fall on the ground
"blood golom come to me!"
a giant creature started forming from the drop and began slaming into the skeletons
"no than wolf man it seems its your turn"
Ares summoned his blade
"lets see if we can make this fun"

[GunbladeKnight]

I think I will join this one.

NAME: Oryp/ Elder of Fire
GENDER: Male
AGE: Now, now, it's not polite to ask someones age.
APPEARANCE: He always wears a red, hooded cloak. He has bright red eyes and wily red hair.
EQUIPMENT/SKILLS: He carries and oak staff that has been burned to increase the durability. He is a master of the true fire magic.
BACKGROUND: He is the only elder that will kill humans in a frenzy, and he will kill his subordinates if they displease him. He does this by burning them slowly for weeks on end. He has control over Australia, but is at constant war with legions of undead that keep rising for an unknown reason.

[Mibu Wolf]

Name:Tokido (like the east sea road)
Age: thirty-five
Species:half wolf
Apperance: Tanned, muscular to the point of being increadably fit, long (waist lenght silver-grey hair (bound at top into long (unbraded) poney-tail), narrow yellow eyes, sharp face, unhandsome but not ugly, teeth are sharp when revieled, retractable claws (were-cat? :wtf:)
Equipment: katana-wakezashi blood swords (exctreimly sharp), man's grey traveling kimono, waraji, sword sparing gloves, cooking knives, flint, box-o-herbs-an-spices, traveling pack, one of those rice straw hats that looks like a bowl, change of clothes, bandages, water gourd, jerky, dried squid, sturdy rope (thirty meters), blank scroll, ink, horse-hair coligraphy brush, fleut.

His parants were human. when they were having the sex that would spawn Tokido, the ywere atacked by a were-wolf. his father was killed, but the mother survived. Interestingly, some wolf saliva got in with the sperm and mixed. thus we have a half wolf. He supports the humans, but has wolfish tendancys. Such as likings for raw meat, his eyes, hair, teeth, claws, and having of increadable smell, sight, and hearing. Dispite his love of raw meat, he is an excelent cook, and often gets lodging by cooking excelent meals, gets money in this way too. Also has fordging skills. he came across a town while wandering the Korean poninsula that had been raided by vampires. He found a freshly killed vampire there too. used the town fordge to make a katana and wakezashi blood-sword set (remember, I am ansible, I love katanas). the blades were so woll forged, that the could cut cleanly enough to not damage the cell structure of what they cut. Because he respects were wolves, if he is attacked by one he will dimember it, lecture it, and then replace the limbs. He also dispises moder conviniances, but does not grudge those who use them.

[GunbladeKnight]

Oryp sat on his throne on a hot, sunny day as it always is in Australia. He enjoyed the heat, so he had it stay hot on the whole continent. He was bored. He didn't like being bored. He was coming up with ideas in his head to solve his boredom.
'I can go search out some werewolves, go find undead to kill, go eliminate some rebels in a huge bonfire, go get more desciples from the local populace, force two servants to battle to the death for my amusement and burn the winner for a few hours just for kicks, or… I know!' Oryp had just came up with a great idea that didn't involve killing or burning. At least, not intentionaly. He was planning to remedy that later, though. He disappeared in a huge flame, that ironically caught one of his guards. Oryp noticed this just before he teleported and laughed.

((Did anyone catch the pun in my character's name?))

[shade]

((hurray people are joining but we need more....MORE!!!!!!))

[MBase]

((Did anyone catch the pun in my character's name?))((Yep.))

[GunbladeKnight]

Oryp suddenly appeared in Ares' throne room. Ares was always more fun than Xeryme. As he did so, he caught a few undead in a burst of flame.
"What the hell is going on here? And who the hell is that werewolf? Can I start him on fire? I always like the smell of brunt fur and flesh."

[Mibu Wolf]

Tokido looked around him, the forest was cool and dark. He stiffened, a bird sang fifty yards away. Quick as lighting, Tokido dropped his pack and dashed in the direston of the noise. He heard the bird call get more urgant, and stopped beneath a tree. The bird call stopped, looking up, Tokido saw a small man looking at him with fear in his eyes. Tokido extended his claws, and started to climb. The man screamed and fell! Tokido jumped out from the tree, twelve feet above the ground. Catching the man as he fell, Tokido turned his waits and rebounded from a large pine, the tree creaked and groaned as Tokido flipped, and hung the man on a branch seven feet from the ground before landing.

Tokido looked up at the man, before walking back to where he had dropped his pack. Returning to the man, he sat down, pulled out a peice of squid, and asked "why are you here?" The man shook, but didn't respond. "look," said Tokido "I am not going to eat you, tell m your business and Iwill give you some food and send you on your way." The man said, in squeaky japanese " A-a-all r-right. B-but first let me d-down." Tokido, lept up to the man, grabbed him by the waist, and deposited him on teh ground, before he turned back to his squid. He then pulled out two packages, "Do you want beef, or squid?" The man replied beef, and Tokiso opened the first package. HE the ntook out two strips of jerky, which ha handed to the man before returning to his squid. The man said "I am a sentry for an outpost village, I warn people when a suspicios person gets near." Tokido wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and said "I mean no harm to you and your village, I may be a wolf," at this the man moved backwards "but I am a lone wolf with no fangs, at least for humans who mean me no harm." The man still looked uneasy, " But you are a wold, no? the full moon is tonight, and we don't want any berserkers near us!" At this Tokido let out a small laugh, " Every village is the same, no national govornment, only villages defenging themselves. But I cannot harm you, I am but a half wolf, a man with wolf like tendancies. The moon holds no compulsion or power over me." The man moved a little closer, "You do not have the moon craze, the bloodlust?" "No, I do not."

The man stood up, "Well." he said, looking delighted, "Well, if you are what you say you are, our village will welcome you wit hopen arms, if you do us one favor." Tokido raised one silver eyebrow in show of sarcasem, "Well, this is not typical village mentality."

[MBase]

Oryp had appeared right in front of Xeryme. "Hey! Out of the way! I'm trying to watch the duel here! And no, you can't burn him. That would take the fun out this whole duel! Now sit down and watch." A few moments after Oryp arrived the air became a good amount warmer, despite the darkened skies.

[GunbladeKnight]

"Ohh… you guys never let me have some fun. I may be only a couple decades younger, but I am still an elder like you guys. And why do you always like it so dark. I can't stand there being no sun." Oryp walked to the side of Xeryme to watch the duel. "So, can I burn him after the duel?"

[MBase]

"I personally have no problem with that, but you will have to ask Ares. You know how he gets around the blood of his opponents... Of course if you are too bored here, there is a loosing battle being fought down there. If you feel the need to burn wolves, you can go ahead and do it down there. Try not to go too overboard, though. There are people on our side trying to retreat down there aswell." Xeryme said. He then mumbled to himself, "Not like that ever matters to you..."

[GunbladeKnight]

"A battle?!? Meaning many people to burn?!? Ares, do you mind if I accidentally set a village or forest ablaze?" Oryp didn't even await the answer. He was already going to jump out the window into the battle.

[Raldios]

"And now for my next trick..." Yang smirked. He put his hands together and the room fell pitch black.
I'll sniff em out. Yang jumped behind Ares and grabbed hold of him, using the claws on his paws to cut him.

[MBase]

"Ah yes, the removal of light. I trust you can handle this minor inconvinience, right Ares?" Xeryme had no trouble seeing strait through the dark, and watched the wolf grab Ares from behind.

[GunbladeKnight]

Oryp was already out the window when the room was blackened. 'This may get interesting.' he thought as his eyes started flaming. His staff was turning bright red with a fireball continually growing on it. It was no ordinary fireball, either. Oryp had gained mastery over changing temperature in fire, and he found it more enjoyable to shock someone with a freezing flame.

[Mibu Wolf]

"A lone vampire?" Tokido sked the old woman in front of him. "yes, we have tried to kill it, but none of us has a blood sword. If you were to kill it, you would get our full support. It has killed many of our people. If you kill it, we will give you whatever you request. We are not a poor village, just a frightened village."

Tokido considered this, he was unsure about his chances, but the benefits of sucsess were tempting. He could get supplies here, and heroes always attract good girls, if he could make another half wolf, then another messenger would be born. And that could only be good for the world. A good compromise between wolf and man was obviosly the best species. Vampires were evil, and wolves were ignorant. Human were not much better. but there was the chance of half wolves becoming a dominant species, a world populated by such creatures, with human knowledge and wolf cunning and strenght was the only option in the far distant future.

"I will take the task, as longas I get shelter, supplies, and a samll celebration if I succeed." The old woman smiled grimly, "Of coarse, our people need a chance to celebrate if you succeed. If you want, you may rest before leaving, with no charge." "Deal."

After a day of rest, Tokido set upon the road to the vampire's grove. Whe nhe reached it, he noticed the lack of sound, the silence was absolute here. Then the vampire emerged from the shadows of the trees.

He was big, about six-six, muscular too, but his eyes possesed none of the cunning of a vampire, they were glazed, and his tong was lolling. This vampire had drunk blood with holy water, and it would have killed him sooner if it had not been for his massive size. Bt he had survived, and was dangerose.

Takido eyed the rest of the vampire, he was naked, no wepons, and his finger nails had grown to about one and a half centemeters. Those could be trouble. But he was unarmed, which made the job easier. Tokido bent down, into the sword drawing stance. The vampire screamed and charged! Tokidowaited for it to be about one meter away before drawing his sword. The sword had been forged with steele, titainium, and vampire blood. it shone with a cold fire, and its name was Mugenjin (Moo-gen-jin(gen rimes with men, and jin rimes with chin)). in the moring light, the vampire hesitated for a split second, before it was cut cleanly in two. Tokido knew the job was not finished, so he lept over the vampire, who was still remarkebly standing though he was seperate from his legs, and sliced downwards, thus quartering the vampire. He turned, and so clean was the cut that the vampire was still whole in apperance, though the blood from the sword prevented it from regenerateing. Striding forward, Tokiso cut a sign into the undead flesh, a waving line, above a choppy road, and above it, a straight line. Signiflying the east sea road of Japan, the Tokido.

The fesitval that night was spectacular, the food was delicios, the music was livly, and the wemon were eather plain as pebbles, or as gorgios as teh mountains on a clear day. Tokido managed to reproduce not once, but six times that night, and each time with a different partner, all of them nice girls. Feeling that the village should prosper further, Tokido went back to the dead vampire, and stabbed the knifes into his chest, thus making a blood blade of each, these were buried in a pentagram formation around the village, thus vampire proofing them after a blood spell was cast by the village preist. Whe nthe next harvest came around, the people found that the area around each blade was perticularly fertile for rice and cucumbers. And atthe next seed planting, Tokido's four sons and two daughters were born, each two days apart.

In the present day, Tokido left the village, with a heavly pack, a hangover, and an erectoin that wouldn't go down for hours.

[GunbladeKnight]

By the time Oryp was close to the ground, his fireball was already twice as big as him. He released it just before he landed to cause a huge explosion in the middle of the battle, wiping out many and freezing others. He was already starting to enter his frenzy by this point, and the flames in his eyes were a veritable pillar of flame. He started launching fireballs of temperatures greater than the core of a supernova at anyone he saw. When this became boring, he started running to the nearest person, grabbing them, then boiling them so that their blood evaporates.

[Mibu Wolf]

((Tokido will soon join the battle, let us establish that charecters can fight, but you must wait for the other person to post what their charecter does. and no god moding. Gunblade, if I attack you with an upard slash and you have your back turned with no back sheild, you will be hurt. In turn, if I am attacked from behind, you may attack me, and I will take damage. and shall we say that charecter vs. charecter fights let one third of all attacks hit. So if again I fight Gunblade, I swing six times, he gets hit twice and dodges/blocks the other four. As a suggestoin, all of our charecters have major charecter aura, meaning that no damage taken will be lethal. shoulder cuts and leg cuts and minor torso wounds are permitted. limbs may be severed only with the inured charecter's owner's approval. these wounds can be fixed. pardon me for establishing some ground rules against charecter vs. charecter fighting, I just considered it nessesary.))

[shade]

Ares was still smiling
"you trueling are a fool"
the blood that was now on the wolves claws began to move
"tainted blood!"
it shot into the wolf causing him extreame pain and knocking him uncontious. Ares threw him into the wall.
"his blood is no good to me, but the undead might eat him. come its time to leave this land, I will create a small kingdome outside of your lands when my people are situated"

((PvP speech))((Ok, I discussed this with both shade and Gunblade already. Truth be told is, as the Elders, any normal person would get fucked. Royally. So, I made it so we could avoid most Elder vs. Non-Elder fights. I will show you what I mean in this post. Editing in story now.))

Xeryme stood up as the darkness cleared. "Fool..." he said staring at the wolf in the corner. "Come, we can return to my castle now... But not before we get Oryp." Xeryme peered out the window into what was now an inferno below. He jumped out the window, spread his black wings and landed right behind the pyromaniac. Just as the man was turning around, Xeryme punched him square in the face, knocking him out of the frenzy. Oryp had fallen over from the hit, but he wasn't that injured. "Come on, it's time to go." As Xeryme spoke, a dark portal opened behind him, through which all three Elders entered (Ares had made it down with a jump). When they arrived back, they were at Xeryme's throne. He sat down, and looked up to Ares. "I must tell you, I had been sensing that the humans have been planning attacks for a while now. I was reluctant to admit they would truly ever accomplish anything, but I see now that we need to take action. As much as I love destroying out of line humans, you and I both know we need them for sustenance. So I propose this: We change our form for the moment, and enter their society as humans. From there, we can find out what they are planning and what we need to do to nip any rebellious plans in the bud." Xeryme stood up again, slowly encompassing his body in a black mist. As it cleared, his armor and wings were gone, and his skin was no where near as pale as before. On top of that, his eyes no longer glowed green, but instead where just a vibrant, but otherwise regular green color. His hair was also much sorter now, and he wore a black trench coat. He had what would normally be his dark swords at his side, but now they just appeared as though the blades were made of obsidian. Xeryme put out his now human looking hand towards the other two and asked, "What do you say?"

((Ok, NOW we can have fair fights. In this form, we will not use our magic to any outrageous extent, and we will be more like skilled mercenaries. However, there may be some cinematic type scenes where we reveal our power for a bit, to take care of a problem or two. But for now, we are regular travelers.))

[GunbladeKnight]

"Damnit, you ruined my fun. Eh, I guess I'll go along with it, but if I don't get to burn something once in a while, I go back to doing my own thing." Oryp held out his staff that burst into flames and turned into a light scarf and a pair of black sunglasses. He then put them on and put up his hood. "I'm ready."

[Mibu Wolf]

(I thank you all. I hate when people god-mode. With shade's permission, mabey we can make mine ground rules, open to non-drastic changes. By the way, I am in Japan, near the coast. Where is everyone else?))

[shade]

((to ansible: sure why not))
"very well"
Ares bit his thumb (agian) and blood surronded him when it cleared he had dark black hair in a ponytail green eyes, a large sword on his back and a black trench coat.
"shall we travel together?"

[Mibu Wolf]

((I don't want to post until I know where everyone else is. To Shade "Do you bite your thumb at me sir?!"))

"Only if you don't want me to start burning things like crazy. Besides, humans know fire magic and MAYBE shadow, but blood magic is unique to us vampires.

[MBase]

"Personally I suggest we try to not use our magic all too much. Either way, if we can get some mercinary work, we are bound to find out info on what the general undeground might be planning." Xeryme started walking down into the darkness of the castle corridors, following the path that was layed out by the dim lights along the walls.

((Ansible: I'm in California.))

[shade]

((I don't want to post until I know where everyone else is. To Shade "Do you bite your thumb at me sir?!"))
((yes. yes I do mr. romio and juliet quoter man...I'm with MBase all the elders are))

[Mibu Wolf]

((yes. yes I do mr. romio and juliet quoter man...I'm with MBase all the elders are))

((Which would be were, in geographic terms?))
((brazil))

[Mibu Wolf]

((well nothing wrong with that, I just have the pacific and the Andies between you and me, and I can have a nice long stroll in the Amazon too :thumbsup: ))

[MBase]

Xeryme led the group out of the castle and down the path leading into the forest lands below. The forest had been extremely overgrown ever since the rainy skies of Xeryme's rule. The paths were very clear, as everything around them grew strait up. The group walked towards the nearest village, which was a good few miles from the castle to avoid any surprise conflict. Another peice of road connected with theirs, where a man with long silver hair and a katana was walking in the same direction. Xeryme knew isntantly this man was not truly human, but he paid no mind, as he could also feel how little fear he held within him. "Hello there! Would you happen to be heading to the city? Perhaps you could join us for the rest of the stroll?" It was almost strange how hospitable Xeryme acted in this form.

[Mibu Wolf]

Tokido looked up at the man who had hailed him, he was not what he appered to be.

"you are not what you appear." Said Tokido, drawing his katna "you are vampires."

[shade]

"hmm I would just leave us be we're very busy people"
Ares began walking past the man

[Ramiel Noodles]

(can I join?)
Name: Teracmicus
Age: 523
Appearance/ equiptment: Light Brown hair shading a pair of large lupine hazelnut eyes, A thin sharp nose, over a thin jaw. His skin is a light tan a natural compection not one you gain in the sun. He wears a tanned leathear cloak with a hood stiched to it with a crude string of fiber. Under this cloak was a oversized cloth shirt, concealing a chain mail shirt. His hands were clawed at the end to a sharp-ish point. His weapons i are a pair of wicked looking schimatars one as pale as the moon the other as black as the sky in wich the the moon slept. In wolf form he takes on the apperance of a timber wolf gray as the mountians of russia. is a dabbler in the arcane arts (can there be more types of magic, like elemetal magic?)

Background: is an elber werewolf, but not in the traditional sense. When most elder wolves comand and scheme, Teramicus is out across the world enjoying his extended life. Although he was trained in battle and in magic he travels the world not in search of blood and battle but rather knowledge. He speaks nost languages and was born and raised in moscow. Most of the time he sherades as a human to access places of human knowledge.

Enterance:Teramica sat in a bar in a settlement in brazil, sipping on a glass of wine. He came here to see the collection of medicnal and spirtual knowledge gathered in the libraryafter he paid for his drink he walked out of the bar noticeing a scuffle between a half wolf and a group of old bats.

[Mibu Wolf]

((Geeze Mike, you sure had a fun night on Wikipedia.))

Tokido stepped in fron of the vampire, his eyes flashed. "I do not want trouble either, but I am looking for information on the reagion. I know you have pressing business, butI can also see you are powerful. My eyes see on three plains. Judging from your robes on the third plane, you are battle mages. I want no quarrle with the vampires, I may be a wolf. butI only grudge those given in to chaos and mindlesness." Here, he sheathed his sword. "If you will permit it, I will walk with you for some time. I wish to know more about this land. I can see that I am no match for your real forms, your current ones I would crush like so many insects beneath my heel. But again, I wish no fight. If you will permit it, we shall proceed."

[shade]

"very well ask away but if you tell anyone what we are I will kill you"

[Ramiel Noodles]

As Teramicus saw the quarrel turn into a conversation he followed them from far away hearing them with the ears of the pack, laughing to himself about the pup's ignorance and sheer arrogance. At one time he thought about butting in but, knew the ancient ones would try to kill him, blowing his cover and the search for knowledge he wanted would be halted.

" Do not concern yourself with that, I know men of the shadows when I see them."

Tokido started walking, a little ahead of his temporary companions. He thought he felt something behind them though, something that could not spell the word 'knew'. He did not understant the suddan insight, but it felt as if some lazy god was guiding him to this thought.

[shade]

something that could not spell the word 'knew'.
((lol mixing new with knew is funny))

[Ramiel Noodles]

((I fixed it shade, how about the element magic thing?))

[Mibu Wolf]

((Sorry man, I just Hate when that happens, especially to me, but it was you, so you got it, my hate.)

((Explain and spell corectly, please.))

[Ramiel Noodles]

((Explain and spell corectly, please.))
((sorry. The vampires have blood magic, the ability to use thier blood for magic. this is the special magic of the vampies. The wolves' special magic is primal magic, the power to control the earth and the trees. fire and shadow magic is magic that anyone can use. anyway back to the story.))

As Terramicus decided that the young pup was being "tainted" he had to do something. As he hurried his pace he acted as a lost person asking "sir can you help me? I need help lifting this heavy box. I'll pay you." as he said this he used his pattened "puppy eyes" frowning pitfuly

[Raldios]

((I'm a general of the Werewolf army...I get Ents, lol))

[Mibu Wolf]

Tokiso looked at the ragged begger in front of him, he looked harmless enough, but he could sense a danger from him, unseeable, even on the planes. He smelled of blood too, and pines. But he was polite in his speech and manner, and there was small gain to be had here. Looking at the vampires, Tokido said "Go on if you want, I'm just going to help this begger here." ((sorry if I throw your charecters around too much guys.)) Once the vampires were out of sight, he turned to the task at hand "Now then,"

[Ramiel Noodles]

"Well hello there Pup. How are you doing." said Teramicus offering him his clawed hand. "I see you met some of the old bats. they may seem nice but, they are the most brutal of the brutal. Oh, I'm sorry I never introduced myself. I am Teramicus, the gnostia of the Great Pack Terbella"

[GunbladeKnight]

((Sorry I haven't been posting for a while, but my fire wall added this to the auto-block list. And how can you tell we're vampires right off the bat? We used magic to look human.))

[Mibu Wolf]

((Sorry I haven't been posting for a while, but my fire wall added this to the auto-block list. And how can you tell we're vampires right off the bat? We used magic to look human.))

((Multi-plane vision, were wolves have had the ability to be seers for centuries, there are three matirial planes, and concealment works on any of these three. Vampires and undead have this power too. I could not see Ramiel's charecter, for instance, because he used matirial things to hide himself, you, on the otherhand, used magic, which cannot be concealed on the planes. the matirial plane is what humans can see, cats can see two, and bats can see three.))

"I greet you, elder, as one wolf to another." said Tokido in the norther wolf fasion, after recovering from his slight shock. "Tell me, how does one with a Russian accent come to be in what was Brazil?"

[GunbladeKnight]

((Okay, but I only put my hood up, and my glasses and scarf were the only two things magiked(were my staff).))

[Mibu Wolf]

Where yo nat also 'magicked'?

[Mibu Wolf]

((Where you not also 'magicked'?))

[Ramiel Noodles]

"It is part of my job as gnostia: I am the seeker of knoledge the teacher of power I pass the power of the lupis anima to all the pups of our pack. I am here in this part of the "wilderness" to study the ancient texts they keep in the library" He said short on breath. "come follow me" he said as he started to pull him away.

[GunbladeKnight]

((Where you not also 'magicked'?))
((No, read my post))

"Man, this is getting boring. Can I please set this forest on fire?"

[Mibu Wolf]

"It is part of my job as gnostia: I am the seeker of knoledge the teacher of power I pass the power of the lupis anima to all the pups of our pack. I am here in this part of the "wilderness" to study the ancient texts they keep in the library" He said short on breath. "come follow me" he said as he started to pull him away.

"Wait elder, first, I want to know what you want." Tokido said, while drawing his blade.
((now sounds like a good time to a fight and a fire))

[MBase]

((Sorry for not being around, but even though I am in fact on spring break at the moment, I'm out of town at friend's house. I can still get to the comp, but less frequently.))

"Oryp, it's raining, and even though I'm sure that's not a problem for you, we needn't have you waste any of your energy destroying the fuel and food source to the humans. Also, if you haven't noticed, we're here." The brush cleared and the three came onto a large gate. There were a few guards that watched for non-human intruders. They saw the three, and alowed them to pass, but not without giving them strange looks. That, however, was from the three's mercinary look.

"Well, I suppose it is high time we look for work. I believe getting involved with the underground would be most beneficial at the moment." THe group walked down the muddy street, keeping a sharp eye out for any suspicious action they might be able to get in on. As they walked, a small girl with strangely bright green eyes carrying a bucket came skipping down the street in the opposite direction. Xeryme stared at the girl for a moment, and she looked over doing the same. She did not know who he was, but she still knew him. After a moment she decided to continue on her way home. Xeryme moved on as well, knowing it best that she knew as little as possible. They continued walking for a bit, until Xeryme caught a glimpse of a group of men talking in in a back alley.

[GunbladeKnight]

Character #2:
NAME: Valiabell
Gender: Female
AGE: 563 but looks 23
Race: Dunpeal
APPEARANCE: She has bright red eyes, a fair face, and long red hair. She wears silver armor with a white cape.
EQUIPMENT/SKILLS: Is adept at fire magic. Has a large sword that is heavy, but she swings it as if it were a feather.
BACKGROUND: She is a dunpeal, the daughter of a vampire and human that is looked down upon by the former and feared by the latter. She is stronger than most vampires because she is actually the daughter of the Elder of Fire, but she does not know it. Because she is a dunpeal, she has long outlived her mother, but will die of old age beore her father. She angers quite easily, but does not go into a frenzy like her father.

((I'll introduce her into the story later.))

[shade]

"I figured you would have a child was that her?"

[GunbladeKnight]

"Where are we going now? Did you just want to come here to see that precious child of yours? Don't tell me your going soft on me now." said Oryp.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

She had awoken with a sudden feeling of urgency. She could not tell why, but she thought it had something to do with her father. 'That bastard left me all alone. I bet he didn't even care for my mother.' she thought. She had long been in search of him, but never say any vampire that looked similar to her. She decided it was best to head into town as a bounty hunter and find a church. She had just acquired a brand new sword and wanted it to be blessed to take on vampires, the undead, and werewolves. She headed for the town she saw the day before. It was not far, and it looked like the people would not know what a dunpeal is or that she is even part vampire.

((just a remerk, we now have two supernatural creatures that are over five hundred, but the vampires and were wolves appered just a century ago? :wtf: I can understand building empires quickly, there could be a whole 'Star Forge' effect, but being alive longer that your species exists?))

[Mibu Wolf]

((I'll edit it.))

((Sorry, just want to get the facts straight.
Suggestion: Master, I suggest you alter her so she is around fifty, but appears younger, this way she could be a veteran fighter, and still be within the bounds of time and space.))

((just a remerk, we now have two supernatural creatures that are over five hundred, but the vampires and were wolves appered just a century ago? :wtf: I can understand building empires quickly, there could be a whole 'Star Forge' effect, but being alive longer that your species exists?))((Actually the Elders came about in the middle ages, as the legend I told on the first page sort of suggests. After becoming the Elders, they went into hiding, thinking about their situation. They found they could make minion vampires, and decided to take over parts of the world. After a few hundred years they had the resources to pull it off with ease, and they did. They have been ruling for a good while now. So! They are really, really, really old. On a side note, I'm going to say guns exist, only they are rarely used due to the availability of magic.))

"Yes, that was my daughter, but that is not the reason we are here." Xeryme started to walk into the back alley where the group of men were standing. When they came into sight, it was clear there was a large drug deal going on. A rather large man turned around and shouted in Xeryme's face, "Who the hell are you!? Get the fuck out of here before I have to force your puny asses out my self! And if you like your limbs I suggest you go yourself." Xeryme, not flinching, replied, "We are looking for work. Perhaps your boss would be in use of our services?" The man did not seem entirely happy with the idea, "Yea, right. First off, I'm in the middle of something here, and maybe I can cut a good deal if I weren't distracted. Secondly, I doubt you could even make it five fucking minutes with those puny asses of yours in the company of the boss."

Xeryme smiled, "Well now, I think I can solve both those problems now." Xeryme looked over to the men on the other side of the alley, causing the large man to do the same. Just as he looked over, he noticed one of the men was in the process of pulling out a gun. Xeryme ran forward at the man and pulled out both blades, pulling them from their sheathed positions all the way across Xeryme's chest to the other side of of his body. They point where they crossed was occupied by the man with the gun's neck..... at least, it was. The decapitated body fell to the floor and his three partners ran in fear. Xeryme put away both blades and turned back to the large man and his crew of two others. "Does that work for you?"

In a good 15 minutes the three Elders were being brought into a bar, and into a secret chamber that was hidden in the back of the kitchen. They walked down a flight of stairs and into a small room. A well dressed man sat at a table in front of them under a rather dim light. The large man who had been escorting the Elders here walked up to the man sitting at the table and explained, "These guys here helped close a bad deal. We got what we wanted and we didn't even have to loose the rocks."

The man looked over to the three. "Hmmm... So, you want some work, huh?" Before any of them could answer he went on, "Well, ya don look like much, but.... if what Hans here says is true, then you could be a good..... asset, so to speak. Here's the deal, I gotta go... traveling soon, and I, uh, am not so sure how good the, uh, security is there, so if you wouldn't mind bein' my bodyguards, I could pay you quite nicely." Xeryme smiled, "Sounds good to me." The man finished, "Alright, that's all. Be back here at the same time tomorrow. Now go get yourselves a drink er something."

With that the group was dismissed and they were led back into the bar. To escape the rather loud noise they headed back outside. Staying under the roof to avoid getting wet, Xeryme said, "So, want to look for a place to stay or something?"

[shade]

"I think I can find us a place"
Ares walked towerds the inn and got three rooms than went back to the bar for a little "socializing"

[klein]

((Can I join? I am not sure where to go exactly, since I am going to be human. I think I am royal screwed, since most are either vampire or werewolf.....and both want to kill me. So, if you would be so kind to not gang bang me, I would like that. Also, you said blood magic could only be used by vampires, because of vampire blood. Well, I assume that they learn it in their long life time, so I am going to try to learn it.))

Name:Robert Armstrong

Gender: Male

Age: 32

Apperance: He wears a green vest, with matching green pants. Under the vest is some light chain mail armor under it. He has short brown hair with matching brown eyes. He is about 6'2 and seems to be average in build

Equipment/skills: He has a short sword, a dagger, two bulkers, chain mail, and 3 phials full of vampire blood. Also, a back pack full of supplies and a few surprises. He can do fire magic well, with a varation of his own. He is also trying to learn how to do blood magic, but has only been moderantly successful.

Backround: Robert has been surviving this hell since the day he was born. Constantly on the move as a child, fighting off both vampires and werewolves, to try to protect a small group of people. He, however was feared amoung the people he traveled with, for his parents were insane murderers, but were killed. The people feared that he would also end up killing them for that reason.

Never the lest, raised these people, for he could help them survive. When he was about 10, he was trying to self teach himself fire magic. Though it took him 10 more years to master it, he finally did. Though not compemt of having something the enemy could easily beat, Robert began to study the imposible, Blood magic. Unfortiantly, he found out it took much longer then he could even live to fully master blood magic, though he is still taking short cuts on learning it quicker and adapting it so he can learn it within his life time.

[GunbladeKnight]

"I'm not one to hold my liquor very well, I think I'll go out and get some fresh air for an hour or so before heading to the in. Plus," Oryp leaned close to them and whispered, "If I need to act like a human mage, I should at least get some supplies from the area for 'ingredients.'"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

She had reached the town in the storm while looking for a place to stay. She saw what looked to be two wolves talking just on the outskirts of the town and kept that in mind. She may be a vampire hunter, but she could definitely hold her own against wolves and humans. She went looking for an inn while trying to stay under the rooftops, and she wandered down a dark alley. There were three guys on the other end that appeared to be frightened of something, but quickly composed themselves when they saw her.
"Hey baby, you lookin' good there? How old are you? 20? 21?" asked one of them.
"I'm actually over five hundred, now if you'll let me on my way I promise not to hurt you." she replied.
"Looks like we got ourselves a joker here. I don't think you need to worry about us." said a second one. "Brad, Mike. Make sure she..." His voice was cut off there.
Valiabell had already brought her new sword down, halving two of the men. She then feasted on the third for her meal. Not wanting the authorities to know what happened, she backed out of the alleyway and casted a large fireball that destroyed the alley and a two building radius around it, then sheathed her sword and left the area attempting to look unsuspicious.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oryp saw the blast and went to see what had happened. He was the first one there and no one else was around. When the authorities arrived next, they convicted him and brought him to the jail. Oryp protested saying that he was just seeing what had happened, then tryed to spy the real culprit, but the police didn't believe him.
"If you won't believe me, then at least tell my friends I'm here. I'll tell you where to find them..."

[MBase]

Two officials came into the the Inn, asking for two men. They were sent up to the Elders' room, where Xeryme had laid down. He popped up upon seeing the men enter. "What brings you here, officers?" One of men replied, "We have your friend in custody. We found him at the site of an explosion, but he claims he just went there to 'check it out'. He would like you to come down to the station and vouche for him. Also, he said there was one other man staying here." Xeryme got up. "Well yes, but I'm not sure where he is at the moment. I'll leave him a note, telling him where we are." Xeryme followed the men across town to the official's station, where he saw Oryp sitting in a cell. Xeryme smiled, "Out to get some fresh air, hm? How do I know you aren't lying about not being the cause of an explosion in town?"

[klein]

((I like being the guy behind the scenes. The passerby who throws a wrench into stuff.))

Robert had been traveling for a few days now, but had decided to rest in a town for a day. It didn't seem to have any vampires or werewolves at the surface, but that is how it always is. The day before he set off, he saw a woman. Maybe in her early 20's, and seemed normal. That is until she went into an alley and three men poped out. Robert was about to run in there and help, but two men were already split in half the thrid man was the woman's feast.

Robert stood there, shocked at what he was seeing down the street. Quickly thinking, Robert ran into an adjadent building down the block. Watching the alley through the window, Robert saw the woman exit. She then cast a huge fire ball spell, destroying the alley and two buildings right next to it. Robert quickly ran out of the building, hoping to question the woman, but she was gone. All there was a man there.

Soon after, the police came and by some eye witnesses that the man was there at the time, and that Robert wasn't, so he, was just questioned there and was free to go(lying mind you). Robert saw up close what the woman had done. All that was left of the area was unidenifyable.

Robert searched around, franticly for the woman, and got lucky and saw her, looking as if she had done, or seen nothing. Robert started to follow her for a bit, keeping his distance and to also be unsuspicious.

[GunbladeKnight]

"Hey! I may like fire and destruction, but I'm not an idiot. It seems as though there is someone close to my level in fire magic though. It lacked the finesse that I alone posses, but it is definately more than what a human can do. I think it may have been our friend that we left back a ways, so help me get out of this damn place or else there will be a REAL explosion."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

She could feel a presence, but her inbred 'sixth sense' didn't kick in, so she paid it no mind. She then found what she came looking for in the first place, a church. The church was now closed for the night, but she saw an adequate inn down a few buildings, so she went to lodge there.

[MBase]

"Fine, fine, I believe you." Xeryme turned to the two officers. "So, I would have to say I believe the man and we really should be on our way." One of the officers replied, "Well as much as I'd like to believe you, We just can't make any assumptions. At the moment, he is the only real suspect we have." The friendly smile on Xeryme's face faded a bit. "That's really too bad... You see, I really believe my friend here, and I would really rather not have him spend the night in jail. So let me put it this way," Xeryme's eye's began to glow, "He didn't do it." the men's eyes glazed over as they stared blankly into space. After a moment they came back, and the man who was talking before responded, "Uhm.... Right, of course! Sorry about the mix up." He got up and walked over to the cell with a key in hand. He opened the cell and let Oryp out. As they two left, Xeryme muttered to Oryp, "Darkness can blind more than just the eyes."

((I am sorry if I add actions to your people, but it won't change what they do. Like when she feels a presence, I would assume she would look around for a second. Would that be all right with everyone if I do this once in a while?))

Robert had been following the woman for a little while before the woman led him to a church. She paid no mind to it, and it appeared to be closed, so she just walked on. A few blocks away, she entered an inn.

"Well, if I go in, I will be known. If I don't go in, she will escape. If I do something stuipid, this whole place is toast. Guess I am going to have to play on my toes, like I usually have to do." thought Robert to himself.

Robert waited outside the Inn for 10 minutes and then entered. He didn't look around for the woman, because it would give him away. He just walked up the the innkeeper and wrote what he wanted him to do on a piece of paper. The innkeeper took it and shook his head at him, in a no guesture. Robert reached into his bag in his belt, and put a good amount of money on the counter top. The innkeeper looked around for a second and pocketed the money, thus agreeing to the note.

Robert thanked the man and walked outside with the paper in hand and mumbled to himself, "Watch the woman who has come in here a little bit ago for me. I want to know what happens in that room tonight." Robert went on, reciting the note and saying the part describing the woman.

With that, Robert crumpled up the paper, held it in his index and middle finger and it caught fire and burned into ashes.

[shade]

Ares had just finished drinking at the bar and was heading back to the inn when the blast went off oryp having fun I see he walked into the inn and lied down on his bed.

[GunbladeKnight]

After they had left the building, Oryp turned to Xeryme and said, "That's a pretty neat trick you got there. I'm glad you came then. If it was Ares, I think there may have been blood or a big bonfire. Where do you think we'll be traveling to tomorrow?"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Valiabell got to her room and looked at it. It was a little small, but it would have to do. She took off her new sword and put it on the ground. She then put a special charm around the blade that, for some reason, allowed only her to grab it without having a fire start on her hand and consume her. The charm had also helped with her hunting.

[shade]

Ares got up he had smelled blood and his mouth watered
"were is this coming from"
he began wondering the inn

[MBase]

"Well I suppose we can look around the city for a bit, but we just need to make sure to get back to that mob boss on time. I'm sure some people will be talking about any large plans to attack the vampire populous. Either way, I'm sure the job itself wont be that tough." They reached the inn after a bit of talking and Xeryme went inside. He began to head up to his room, but not withought sensing the presense of something not human. Even so, he just passed it off as a wandering wolf or vampire trying to get some rest.

[GunbladeKnight]

"Whatever. See you in the morning, then." Oryp went up to his room. As he passed by one room, he had a sudden vision of some women at a graveside seeming to make some oath to it. He then got a feeling of someone familiar and close to him, but he could not place it. He shook the feeling off then went to bed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Valiabell sensed the presence of three different non-humans. She saw the two wolves earlier, but she did not think this was them. One of them even seemed to give off an aura to remind her of her mother. This bothered her late into the night until she finally fell asleep at about 3:00 a.m.

[klein]

"Bunch of strange men you say?" questioned Robert to the inkeeper at about 3:00 in the morning.

"Well, keep a watch on them too, and for your effort." said Robert as he threw a few coins at the man.

"Ok, so I have one girl who is a vampire for sure, and a bunch of men who are either vampire, wolves, or humans. Just my freaking luck that I get placed at the short end of both sticks. No way I can take them each on, so I am going to have to have them at each other's throats, or have to do some very unique things with my magic." thought Robert to himself as he walked into another inn around the block.

[Mibu Wolf]

((Rameil and I coriographed this in a graveyard erlier today, so I'm sue he won't mind if I post it. Remember, Wolves have primevial magic, and Ramiel is a wolf elder, I would guess that his earth magic is on par with the vampire elder's magic. He just chooses to take it easy.))

Tokido flipped his katana around so the blade faced outwards, but pointed behind him, the old wolf had removed two scimitars from his back, and was holding them in the shape of a cross, one pointing left, the other pointing up. Tokido emmited a snarl, his fangs showing, his claws extended, and his eyes flashed acid yellow in the sun. He lunged forward, his katana whitling in the wind, but the old wolf had blocked him. He jumped back, and lunged agian, this time with a flip and overhead swing, and was blocked again. the old wolf reched down, and punched the ground sending a shock wave across the ground, trees uprooted, and a boulder fell from the hill above, Tokido jumped to avoid the waave, and then lunged agin, this time wiht a side feint, and thne an overhead chop, and was blocked, but in that second, his wakezashi flashed as he thrust it towards to wolf's torso, and was blocked by another scimitar! afet he jumped back this time, The wolf punched the cround agin, and this time, a collosle creature rose from it, sixteen feet tall, and all made of clay! The creature slowly raised a leg, and brought it down towards Tokido, but then his blades flashed, and he jumped to meet the golomb's foot, severing the leg in two swift strokes. but as he landed, the Golemb over balanced and fell on him! The old wolf, paced over to the mound, and tapped it, the mound became a cage, wher tokido was lying, with a cut and bruised forhead, and his blades lying just near the bars. The old wolf reached down and took the blades, then tapped the cage so it moved underthe earth, to reappear three hundred feet away in a clearing. The wolf walked towards the clearing, sat down in it, and took a nap.

[Ramiel Noodles]

((yeah thats cool Mibu and I did coreograph this yesterday))

[GunbladeKnight]

Oryp woke up early in the morning, his dreams having been haunts from the past. He went to the doors of the other two elders and knocked on them saying, "Hey! Get up. I'm going to walk around town for a bit and take in the sites. I'll meet you by that church not far from here by about noon." And with that, he left.

[klein]

"If this is another goose chase, I am going to go balistic on someone." said Robert as he proceeded to yawn. "Waking up at 3 in the morning sucks, but then I still have to come here early to watch out, and I had a hard time falling back to sleep."

Robert was waiting across the street, watching the inn doors intentivly. He knew he was going to have some troubles if he was right, and if he messes up, he would be outnumbered. He saw a man leave the inn, nothing suspicious there, so Robert just stood there, slouching against the wall, watching the doors.

[MBase]

Xeryme got up and walked down to the bar area. He looked around and saw no threat of any sort. He proceeded out the door when he saw a man wacthing him from across the street. Xeryme stared at him for a moment, but when the man looked away, he just continued on his way.

Xeryme walked along the muddy street, as it had stopped raining for the moment, and continued down in the direction he had seen the small girl with the bucket wander before. He kept going down until he caught a glimpse of her through a window. She seemed to be playing with a ball inside; nothing out of the ordinary. There was an elderly woman there with her, and still, it was nothing strange... at least to one who had never seen them before. The girl, Xeryme's daughter, and the elderly woman, the girl's mother both went on peacefully in their feeble home. Of course the little girl was always told that the woman was her grandmother, as the woman always knew her daughter would out live her to a very large extent. Would either of them even recognize me in this form? Xeryme thought silently. Xeryme wanted to go inside... but then again, he didn't want to disrupt the peaceful lives they have now. At the moment, it seemed like the girl hadn't even realized any of her power over darkness, but Xeryme knew she was never afraid of it. Perhaps.... perhaps things are simply better this way.

[shade]

Ares put his hand on Xeryme's shoulder
"your so pridictible, did you even care for that women?"

[MBase]

Xeryme was slightly shocked by Ares's sudden appearance. "Wha- Oh... Ares. Yes, of course I cared for her. That is why she bared my child. Of course I could not allow for my daughter to grow up in the company of the dead - emersed in darkness. She is at least half human, and she should have the right to enjoy the life givin to those of the living. She will outlive her mother, but I can only hope she will still be able to live on in peace even after that." Xeryme looked up at the grey sky. The sun was still somewhat visible through the clouds. "Come, it is almost noon. We should get over to that church Oryp spoke of."

[Mibu Wolf]

Tokido was coming to. He was in a tree, his Kimono was hanging loosly from him. When he looked up, the moon showed, a cresent moon. Looking around, he saw that he was not only in the tree, but the tree itself was wrapped around his armes, legs, and waist. below, him, about twenty feet away, was the old wolf.

[GunbladeKnight]

Valiabell had slept in pretty late that morning, but then again, she did fall asleep late. It was after eleven o'clock when she woke up. 'Better get this weapon blessed so it is actually of use to me.' she thought. She cleaned off the blood stain then sheathed it and headed to the church. At the church, she got the preacher to bless the weapon for her. This took awhile, and was done shortly after noon. She then headed out the door.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oryp got to the church shortly after it was noon, thinking he would be the last one there. To his slight surprise, none of the others were quite there yet. 'I wonder what they could be doing...' he thought. Just then, a woman came out of the church; Oryp could tell she wasn't exactly human, but she wasn't fully vampiric, either. She also noticed him and both got in a fighters stance.

[Mibu Wolf]

She also noticed him and both got in a fighters stance.

((I wold ridicule you on this abrupt fight, but then I would be a hypocrite. Just don't destroy the town, ok? By the way, the night that everyone else stays at the inn, is when I wake up in the tree.))

[MBase]

Xeryme and Ares walked around the corner to the front of the church, only to find Oryp in a battle stance in front of some woman. "Woah, now! Oryp! Don't do anything rash, we still have a job commitment, remember? Besides, what do you have against this young girl?"

[klein]

Robert was sitting on the ground, his head back and his eyes closed. He only moved when a sharp pain came in his side and he saw a passerby had kicked him.

"Shit, I fell asleep. Guess I won't be able to track that woman. So much for damage control." said Robert to himself while he stretched.

As Robert walked a few blocks, he found the church. He had also found the woman, and a man who was in a fighting stance.

Another man was there and he said, "Woah, now! Oryp! Don't do anything rash, we still have a job commitment, remember? Besides, what do you have against this young girl?"

Robert just stood there and pulled out his gloves and put them on.

"What ever she does to him is self defence, but I am going to make sure this city doesn't get hurt in the process.

[Mibu Wolf]

((my problem is, my posts depend on others posting. and Ramiel is cleaning his room now.))

[GunbladeKnight]

Xeryme and Ares walked around the corner to the front of the church, only to find Oryp in a battle stance in front of some woman. "Woah, now! Oryp! Don't do anything rash, we still have a job commitment, remember? Besides, what do you have against this young girl?"
"I don't know. It's just this fee..." Oryp was cut off as she dashed toward him with a sideswing of the giant sword. Oryp caught it with his left hand, and could feel a slight stinging sensation. This was offset by a warmth from touching the blade. He looked at it closely and saw a charm hanging around it that seemed familiar. "Where did you get that charm?"
"It was from my mother. Why are you not bursting into flames yet?" Valiabell replied
"I have my reasons. I'm guessing your one of those half-vampires. Why kill vampires."
"Because my father abandonned my mother and left me all alone."

[MBase]

Xeryme let out a sigh, "Hmph... fine, just don't go getting anyone killed. That would look bad, especially when we already got something to do today. And of course, if you need any help with this little lady here just let me know." With that, Xeryme walked over to a bench behind him and sat down to watch...... again.

[GunbladeKnight]

"I'm guessing your the one who blew up those buildings then." said Oryp.
"What's it to you?" asked Valiabell.
"It caused me slight troubles yesterday. How bout we make a deal? You join us and I don't tell the police you're the one that did it."
"My mother would not want me to trust vam..."
"You're mother wouldn't want you to kill vampires. She never hated or feared them."
"How do you know my mother? Do you know my father?"
"Maybe I do, but you'll have to come with us to find out." replied Oryp.

[MBase]

"Well that was anit-climactic," Xeryme said in a dull tone. "Well whatever. What was it you wanted at the church in the first place, Oryp? Seems pretty ordinary a place to me."

[Ramiel Noodles]

As teramicus looked up in the prison he made he told the pup "That is why I am an elder and you are but a mere pup." he siad before he went back to sleep.

[GunbladeKnight]

"We will meet again, and I expect you to tell me of my father next time we do." Valiabell said as she lept over some buildings.
"Damn, we could have used her, too. Oh well. Xeryme, I figured this would be an easy spot to find if we got lost. And if we do see that girl again, let me handle it." Oryp said.

[Mibu Wolf]

((An elder that can't spell said))

tokido watched the old wolf, he had fallen asleep. So he must either be supremly arrogant, or be certain that I cannot escape, most likly a mix of the two. Neverthe less, Tokido struggled, and the elder slept. in the moon light, Tokido grew moer hair, not as much as a true wolf, but more than a human. and other physical changes occurred, his legs muscled at the top, and his ankles thinned. soon he was able to slip his legs out of the branches. as he moved and changed, Tokido became ever aware of his lack of nurishment, his pack was below, and there was no fruit near. A squirrle ran across his waist, and in an instant, his feet had trapped it, and his grown nailes had puncuted its small skull and brain. Raising his feet to his head, he stuffed the squirrle into his mouth, and ripped it apart with great pleasure, the thrill of a kill was always welcome, no matter how small. soon the fur was all around the tree, along with blood and bones. a now stated Tokido licked a little blood off his face, before falling asleep. At this point, all the blood had left his hands and legs.

[klein]

"From what I can get from these people, the girl is half vampire, so I might be able to work with that, and these two are vampires. The bad thing is that, there is two against one right now. I can get them one on one later." thought Robert to himself as he pulled out a pair of goggles from one of his pockets and put it on, and a mask that covers the bottom of his face from the nose down.

When he got his stuff on, he got on one knee and touched the ground with his hand. When he did this, a huge crack formed in the dirt, and smoke started to rush out of it until it covered the whole street. Robert then made a break for it, running down the street of the direction the girl jumped away too.

[shade]

Ares had vanished he was getting tired of family reunions and needed a break, he was also very hungty, but he couldent kill a human it would get to much attintion so he went to the nearest farm and started draining the cattle ripping them apart when he was done to make it look like a werewolf and it did exept for the lack of blood

[GunbladeKnight]

Valiabell stopped at the edge of town. She had expected the vampire to follow her, but she only sensed a normal human following her. "You can come out, you know." she said.

[Mibu Wolf]

((* Pokes Ramiel* Ramiel, wakey wakey, eggs and bacey.))

[klein]

((I won't attack. Just telling you so you don't think I am trying to screw up your characters. Also, about the trying to strike you down thing, my person has a few other tricks, though it would be hard/I couldn't strike you down at the current moment.))

"So I was right about you." said Robert as he came out of the corner of the building he was hiding behind.

"So tell me, what other things can you do? You still need to feed, yet you don't take much pleasure in it. You have heightend senses, yet you have yet to attack. So tell me, who were those men back there, and why I shouldn't rush at you, atleast try to strike you down where you stand." said Robert as he pulled down his mask and pulled up his goggles.

[GunbladeKnight]

"Then you must have seen what I did to that alleyway. I can create a bigger one if you don't mind. Or I could just slice you, but that would just be a waste of energy. Plus, just touching this sword with the charm on it will cause you to burst into flames. I m also stronger than most vampires, but I have not been able to figure out why. I should be weaker then them. Enough about me, what do you want." Valiabell replied.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oryp seemed to be contemplating something for a while. He suddenly turned to Xeryme and said, "Hey Xeryme, how are you planning on raising that child of yours?"

[MBase]

"If you haven't noticed... I'm not. I don't want her to know she is part vampire. From what I have seen, she has more magic in her than undead, so she doesn't need to feed. She is regular enough to pass as a human, and I want to keep it that way. The less she knows of her origins, the better. Besides, she is such a sweet girl, I doubt she would stay very stable if she found out she was connected to the monsters that are said to destroy homes and devour people who may very well be her friends."

[GunbladeKnight]

"And are you prepared if she does find out? Or if she becomes reviled because of her magic? How would you handle it then?"

[Mibu Wolf]

" "Hey Xeryme, how are you planning on raising that child of yours?"

((Daddy's Group now? I can join, I have seven kids.))

[klein]

"Yes, I have seen what you did in that alleyway. Not the way I would have handled it, considering you most likely killed a a person in one of the buildings that have been destroyed by you. Also, your sword, I can do something similar if you must know. Not with my sword, but with my magic. What I have come here to ask is, do you have any information on those guys who you were fighting? Also, if you would like a fair fight against the two of them, I would happily obbledge to try to take them down with you." said Robert.

[shade]

Ares walked up to the other two elders
"enough of this family shit, Im really getting tired of it, they'll only betray your love. now lets get back on our mission I want my kingdom back"

[Ramiel Noodles]

((* Pokes Ramiel* Ramiel, wakey wakey, eggs and bacey.))
As the old wolf awoke he heard a groanig in the tree. "heh pups cant control themselves" he thought to himself

[Mibu Wolf]

Tokido groaned again, the squirrle had not agreed with him, and the light was in his eyes, the old wolf was below, streatching and making derisive comments.

[shade]

"comon lets get moving"

[GunbladeKnight]

"All right already. How much time do we have?" said Oryp.

[MBase]

"Let's see.... probably a good couple hours, but we should head back over to that bar now. We can wait outside if necissary." Xeryme started walking in the proper direction.

((Sorry, will post more later. In a bit of a hurry at the moment.))

[GunbladeKnight]

((Life 2))

Oryp and the others arrived at the bar with a few hours to spare. "I don't know what you guys are going to do, but I can't stand alcohol. I'll wait out here."

[GunbladeKnight]

((Phoenix Pinion. Come on Guys. I don't want this to die.))

[Mibu Wolf]

Well, ramiel and I gave up on it, and, lets face it, if MBase leaves, it is dead.

[MBase]

((Okay, guys. I may bring this back up. Now that summer vacation will be starting up for me at tomorrow's end, I will have solved the one problem that kept me from RPing before: Time. Still, I can only go on so many different RPs at once, mainly 'cause I only care to go on that many at once. But still, if the need arrives, I will bring this one back with that oh-so-epic plot I have for it that I came up with a while ago.))

[Ramiel Noodles]

(I'll start back up not now though,have to read up on story.)
