Sorcen_Anenooata 11-09-07, 11:09 AM	OOC: This thread is to house the fights of the arena that may happen in the middle of the streets, just outside of the shops, on rooftops, or even in the sewers. This thread can also contain about any place you'll need and will come in handy soon.
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-09-07, 11:11 AM	The commotion in the arena draws the attention of the audience and aanyone passing by in the streets. The following are the events witnessed by those curious enough to look... A large well muscled red skinned man walks into the arena. He is about nine feet tall and gigantic ram's horns adorn his head. He wears only a loancloth lined in gold and with a special golden symbol on the front and a golden ring on his finger. He strides confidently into the arena and walks until he reaches the center. He lifts his head and looks around the arena before turning to an intrigued Sorcen standing at his balcony overlooking the arena. The crowd boos at this interruption of their fights and throw their trash, although the trash merely lands harmlessly against the barrier and is swept up by constantly working lesser devils. The red man and Sorcen meet eyes and Sorcen holds a hand up for silence. The red man speaks, a deep yet harmonious tune. "I am Faashtha, a bounty hunter of sorts, on behalf of the powers of the 'verse. I have been commisioned to shut down this arena, you are all under arrest please lay down your arms and line up in an orderly fashion so that I may commence my arrest procedure." Sorcen smiles and holds back a laugh as he lowers his hand and allows the laughter of all his audience to flow into the arena and let the bount hunter hear his folly. Sorcen replies, "I am sorry but I must resist arrest and I'm quite sure that there are many more here that sympathize with my decision." The faashtha smiles and spreads his arms and clenches his fist, in which a large greatsword appears in each hand with a flash of flame. "I knew you'd say that. Prepare for dea..." Sorcen cuts him off with his voice echoing a command throughout the arena, "Someone destroy him." At this command from the Lord of Baator, waves of devils appear and step forward, ready to take on this foe. One devil steps forth though and waves the others back. This devil is an unique one, he is of medium size with almost black skin and a two large horns rising from his forehead. He wears a police uniform and is decorated with many medals. He waves his hands for the other hordes of devils to stop their assault and form uniform lines to be ready for an organized attack. He then charges the faashtha with a grin on his face and draws a rapier and a dagger as he charges. The faashtha steps aside and parries a dagger thrust with his left greatsword. He then turns too quickly for his bulky body and cleaves the devil captain in twain wth his right blade. The devil falls forward spewing blood from both halves of his mouth. Both halves of the devil twitch and bleed upon the arena floor. Sorcen smiles as the faashtha turns back to face the devils surrounding him. The devils wait for the signal of one of their other captains that step forward. An elderly devil steps forth and raises his longsword, he slowly lowers it to point at the bounty hunter and then flicks the tip of his blade slightly, signalling a sqaudron of devils to attack. The following events are pure massacre as the small squadron of devils are utterly destroyed by this lone faashtha. More devils amass and ready themselves for another wave of attack but Sorcen's sudden utterance stops them as a word of the infernal language reverberates throughout the arena. The new devils stop in their tracks at their lord's command. Sorcen waits a moment before speaking. "Very good Faashtha. Now who else would like to try their hand at defeating this bounty hunter trying to unjustly shut down my fine establishment here?" Sorcen directs this next question to the bounty hunter, "Faashtha, who hired you so that I may know who has broken our treaty and forced my hand against the celestial planes? Whose head shall I pin all the following death upon?" The Faashtha only grins and readies his swords to taste yet more blood. http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u296/Kazetan/faashtha3.jpg OOC: To participate go to IC1 (http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?t=698203&page=27) or IC2 (http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?t=742069&page=17) and fight him.
Khael 11-10-07, 06:34 AM	OOC: Well this seems the best place to open this can of worms up, given everything... Elsewhere: "B0r3d..." The feet of the speaker scrape against the wall, as its legs kick in the air, the other three of tis fellows turning to glare. "I swear he's not right in the head," Issues the next as it spears a passing vermin on one long tentacle. "Ни те будут вами," sneers the next, this one's tone full of bile and spite. "Thats not helping, we were suppose to adapt. That includes language." "Я отказываю опоганить мой язык с этой тарабарщиной язык звонока тех ' вещей." "Defilation or not, we have adapted to this place. All you have done is develop an inferiority compl-"[/COLOR] "Безмолвие" At those words the four turn, heads bowed in obeisance, to the shadowy thing, as it flows filling the cramped space with its ethereal substance,"Теперь временем мой поднимать, теперь будет время моего reascension. Вы мои дети найдете сосуд, но вы пойдете с моей помощью, с вами как мое тело..." "Tthan-","Соедините с мной..."the words cut off as the shadows reach down to touch, flesh rippling like water as its reshapes, limbs extending, bone snapping and fusing, claws bursting free, as tentacles punch out to slash into the wall behind, as the creature flexes its neck, "Hunt. I WILL be reborn again,I will never be stopped, I will never again be denied!", it calls, its voice echoing with abnormal timbre as the creature stalks away, breaking first into a run, then to leaping fropm wall to wall followed by the other three.
Khael 11-11-07, 03:17 PM	In a darkened cellar,(again elsewhere) there is an air of tension so tense if even a pin were to drop, one of the inhabitants wouldn't be walking out, silence speaking of rivalries and boredom more than words ever could until, "Why the %^*£ are we &*%#@ng here again?" "Waiting?" "@&^ that." "Ahem" "Oh £$%*&^$ great, it's the $£%^$& stick man again." "Strike," and with that word, th room suddenly is filled with a sense of excitement,"It is time for that, but only one of you can lead for now. You." Disappointment and signs fills the air from everything living in the room, save one, who stands up, and in the darkened room, seems almost to rip his face clean off, as his calling screech fills the air, and far down below... Something stirs.
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-20-07, 11:21 AM	An earthquake is felt in the sewers under the arena as a firey tornado bursts through from above, creating an avalanche of rubble and dust. The tornado stops spinning to reveal that it is a large firey phoenix emanating outward from the form of a firey red haired human male with glowing green eyes. He flaps to steady himself from his spinning and glances around to get his bearings. He seems to remember his enemies above and suddenly flies down one of the large tunnels, his flames creating a fast moving light source that streaks down the tunnel. The planatar and Butcher fall through the hole created by Kevic and grapple in the air during their fall as they and their weapons land with multiple splashes in the sewers below.
munchlord 11-20-07, 04:06 PM	Artak drops into the sewers, following the Phoenix with equal speed. The phoenix who soon finds his path blocked by a titanic centipede.
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-20-07, 05:23 PM	Kevic comes to a halt upon seeing the centipede, he flaps his wings rapidly and hovers for a moment before landing in the murky water below. As his flames come into contact with the water, steam fills the tunnel making it hard to see. The phoenix remains as a dim light that refracts off the droplets of water vapor, making him look larger than before. The phoenix points a claw at the centipede, creating a fireball that leaps forth and smashes into the vermin blocking its path. Butcher and the planatar collect themselves and glance at each other as Artak flies past them. They have both landed on their backs and are sitting up with their hands supporting their bodies behind their backs. After exchanging glances, they scramble to grab their weapons, creating much splashing as they do so.
Khael 11-20-07, 06:19 PM	In the dim light and splashing of the water however, it is very easy to miss the flashing shadows on the walls, the hissing and muted snarling as figures creep up on all three humanoids... ************** All about a cloth-swathed form lie dismembered bodies as three tentacled forms slash and kill, as their shrieking assailents keep coming, pushing the silent defenders back by strength of number alone, thoguh the lashing tongues and broken nails are near useless against the horny blackened skin and bony frames... Until it comes, full of rage and pain, even the mindless atackers falling silent in the wake of a fury more primal and savage than even they can comprehend, as a glowing form descends wrapping about the 'head' of the clothen body revealing itself as a simple mask, but with eyes of burning hatred, as the body arches, falls back then arches, repeating the action as the room begins to fill with small black blobs emanating from this act... "They are my children, though like me now they are weak, they will grow strong as I grow strong once again, though one of them may fall, though one may suffer, there with be hundredfold to avenge his pain. Now my children, feast..." As the first mews with hunger, in a room full of prey... "And then when I am strong once more, existence will burn..."
munchlord 11-21-07, 02:45 AM	Artak drops down to the water, bt doesn't enter it. Instead he lets the cold flow from his wound, freezing it rapidly. The centipede is struck by the fireball, but it doesn't seem to take any injury.
lunoc 11-22-07, 07:40 PM	ooc: this is a test run for a new character, jason knells (advanced from the character i stated on the character post thread)and is that butcher from one of the early fights? :ooc a man steps out of the shadows and regards the celestial fighting butcher. he has pale skin, green-blue eyes, and wears a long leather jacket. he raises a hand (lighting a cigarette with the other) and the planatars weapons fly off a few yards away leave this place angel, wile you can his voice sounds anything but intimadating.
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-23-07, 12:12 AM	The ice freezes the sewer's waters up until the edges of Kevic. The steam thins and finally dissipates as the flames of the phoenix do battle against the icy death cold aura of Artak. The phoenix spreads its wings wide and illuminates the shadowy figures lurking all around them. The planatar hauls himself to his feet and stares at the man stealing away his weapons and glances back to Butcher. Butcher in turn grabs his weapons and looks too at the newcomer and then back to the planatar. "Thanks man." Butcher says to Jason, he then turns to the planatar. "Aye, be gone with ya angel scum, yer blood doesnt sate me." The planatar clenches his fist and closes his eyes. "I may die but I will have justice for my vanquished comrades today..." "Enough of your blubbering..." Butcher interrupts with a supernaturally fast charge, swinging his axe at the planatar. The planatar easily dodges and kicks the dwarf across the sewers. Butcher lands on his feet with a splash as he slides through the murky water. The planatar meanwhile readies himself for an attack from Jason. OOC: Yep thats Butcher, my cousin's vamp dwarf character that fought against Seraphim's character in one of the first battles of the arena.
munchlord 11-23-07, 01:58 AM	Kelvic notices that the Centipede is not the only vermin down here. Around in the corners hundred of beetles and spiders lurk, and mosquitoes raise from crack in the rock and starts buzzing. Strangely they live just fine despite the cold streaming from Artak. Artak approaches the Phoenix slowly, a club made from the bone of a large creature appears in his hand, seemingly draw from below his cloak.
lunoc 11-23-07, 11:03 AM	you had your chance, and now you'll learn to beware the power of a corpumancer! dessicate! jason casts a powerful spell that attempts to pull all the water out of the angel
Khael 11-23-07, 04:14 PM	At this point however, several hiumanoid beings choose to leap from both the shadows and ceilings, lashing out at everything else that moves, several even leaping directly onto the centipede to rend bloody chunks out of its flesh... ****************** Outside, in a deserted building: With a sudden crash of stone, the floor heaves up, a delicate pale fist sticking out, which soon puts the rest of tis cloth-swaded body out followed first by its three hulking creations, then by a swarm of tiny monsters, three foot high, red of eye, and dark of scale. "My children, hunt them down, kill every being that dwells in this place, drain them of power, drain them of blood, drain them of life, Go now, and my will be done," it gestures and the little horde evacuates, though every sizable orifice in the building, as it turns to the last three, "We must seek high ground, in light of thisss... challenge to my powerНикак, Silence!, Where is the highest point available to us? You, take meОстановите there. And as for you, rest assured it will not be long before I can fully protect Не сделайтeagain," at its word, one of the three gingerly lifts the figure into its arms, before the other two plough though the building ceiling followed though the holes by the carrier...
Khael 11-24-07, 06:54 AM	As the three come to a stop, the carrier gently drops its charge, being looking on questioningly at its now-rigid master... As it begins to laugh, HehehhehhehhehmhahhahahBWAHAHAAHAHA... echoing across the entire site, as the diminutive figure looks up to the sky, rises its arms, and the already dark sky begins to twist ...AhAHAHAHAHGWAHGHAHAHAHAHHAGWARHGHHAHA HAGURWAHGHAHAHAHA... It both laughs and screams intermittantly as from tis robes, start to drop little dark crystal ball sized things in time to the screams... ****************** Back in the (now extremely holed) building: A human hand clamps onto the floor lifting itself up and out into the lgiht, as it hisses, covering its eyes, before slowly rising to look at the clouded sky, and shrieks as more of its fellows follow, preceding the voice of another, "Hunt them down, we can always use mroe stock, and we cannot accept another predator in the habitat. The rest of you, there must be hundreds, thousands more fodder in the area here, find them and bring them down, we will likely need all we can, after underestimating the numbers of those... Things."
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-24-07, 10:01 AM	The planatar doubles over in pain and drops to his knees as the water is drained from his body. His last visions are of the water he kneels in, this strikes an idea in his mind and he cast a spell with a dying breath. "Kart...ushav" The planatar's dried husk falls face first into the murky knee-high water and disappears beneath it with a splash. Butcher nods his approval at this death and looks for his pistol that was lost during the fall. ~ Kevic flaps his wings creating a gust of wind sufficient to blow the leaping beings back. The ones from above have more luck though as they fall past the searing flames of the phoenix form and land near enough to Kevic's soft mortal form to attack him. The flames burn at the beings' bodies and sear their flesh from their bones as they move about within the phoenix aura.
munchlord 11-24-07, 05:09 PM	Lots of the vermin turn about to attack the creatures leaping from the shadows, and it soon becomes a chaos where no one is sure who is assaulting who. The vermin have the strength in numbers though, and they show to be far more resilient and strong than one would expect from such creatures. The remaining vermin descends upon Kelvic with a strange ordered form of attack, working together with perfect precision, as if they shared the same mind. And with a strange immunity to fire. Artak simply buffs up his cold aura even further, making it mean instant death to anyone that comes too close. He swings his club in the direction of Kelvic, but too far away to hit him. Instead several vaguely humanoid clouds of darkness emerge from the club, flying rapidly towards Kelvic.
Khael 11-24-07, 06:30 PM	Despite Kelvic's fiery protections though, the monster push forth, until one, illuminated by the flames of the pheonix's aura, grasps him by the neck, its jaws splitting open as it bites for his neck, an immense tongue launching out to plant itself... Though the vermin have superior numbers, the figures have strength against the lightweight forms, ploughing up great furrows of vermin as they leap to the ceilnigs and back to their humanoid foes, as the sound of grating metal on stone fills the gloom... "&*$% me, Not even suppose to be here and he still can't do this crap without the rest of us. A*&e."
lunoc 11-24-07, 10:31 PM	jason looks over to butcher your the vampire in service to socen arent you? did you happen to see the two that crashed in here earlier?
munchlord 11-25-07, 03:22 AM	Although the fight among the vermin and the leapers is chaos, the vermin themselves work with perfect precision, one defending the other, never getting in the way of each other and such. They set up tons of flanks and time their strikes so that when one is attacked, the others use the openings of the enemy to strike with swift strength and precision. The general intelligence and skill shown is superhuman, and certainly supernatural.
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-25-07, 09:29 AM	Kevic is soon overwhelmed by the biting of vermin and Reapers (Khael's leaping guys) alike. His flames sputter out as he falls to his knees and grasps at the reaper biting his neck. He holds the reaper but the bites weaken him as his hold fails to be enough to throw the creature. "Naw not in Sorcen's service, just a competitor like anybody else, I'm really not even fond of the archdevil, hes a bit too rich for my taste." Butcher says to Jason as he steps forward and begins to walk down the tunnels. "They all went this way. A phoenix and a dragon by tha looks of it." As Jason and Butcher walk from their spot, a burst of water explodes from behind them and something flies out the water and into the air above the arena. Butcher turns to look but sees nothing but the falling water raining back into the sewers.
lunoc 11-25-07, 11:47 AM	ah, my mistake. jason takes out a small needle and gives himself an injection. his pupils grow to nearly cover his whole eyes there, perfect dark-vision, now what do you say we see who else is down here?
munchlord 11-26-07, 07:23 AM	His opponent now slain, Artak sees little point in remaining in the sewers, and he spreads his wings and flap them forcefully bursting through the roof of the sewers, rubble and dirt spraying both out of it and down into the sewers, some squishing vermin, some hitting the jumpers. The vermin resume their onslaught on the leapers, but now with greater working of tactics and even further inhuman skill.
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-26-07, 09:52 AM	Kevic goes cold and fades from life as the reapers drain him with their vicious bites. He falls face first into the murky water of the sewers and floats face down. Butcher smiles and readies his pistol while simulatenously attaching his axe to his back. "Sounds good ta me." He walks alongside Jason down the tunnel. ~ Sorcen aims to appear on the guard tower of the arena area. It sits high in the air and overlooks the entire area of the arena. The tower's base sits just outside the arena's borders but the tower seems to sway in and out of the borders. The guard post is high above anything else in the area, even the great parapets of the Magic School. The fort of the tower is an open aired small place only about a fifteen foot by fifteen foot square, a roof covers the fort and allows much overhang to reduce the oft-seen windblown rain. A scrying pool sits in the center of the tower. The pool is stagnant at the moment due to the magic-draining effects of its current inhabitant. Sorcen's magic failed him just as he reached the tower, he manages to catch the ledge of the tower and pulls himself up and into the tower. His face is covered in a considerable amount of sweat as he looks to the source of the magic-draining. ~ Sorcen basically found the magic draining source by feeling for the greatest pull of the same energy that the smaller beasts had. Well that and not looking for what he wanted found, if that makes any sense.
Khael 11-26-07, 10:26 AM	Yeah, looking for the one place he couldn't srcy made perfect sense. And the gaze of tens of little black abominations return his look, piled high on one another as in their midst can be seen three far vaster creatures blocking sight beyond them, as a voice calls from all around, "I See You...", as thunder rolls, and the dark storm clouds crackle to life, releasing great bolts behind the three, as the mass at the centre of the storm, pulses...
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-26-07, 06:42 PM	"It was not my intention to be unseen to you." Sorcen says calmly as he stands and stares through the three creatures. "I am Sorcen, current lord of Baator. Who praytell are you?" The archfiend bows slightly at his introduction but does not break his gaze into the darkness.
Khael 11-27-07, 06:00 PM	"Pray? Indeed you could," Looking though the three Sorcen sees their master, a short robe-clad figure with its hood up, arms raised as the storm feeds it bolts of lightning, while it directs the mass above, even as something twists in the air directly about its head, parts blinking in and out of vision, a tatter there, a tendril here, a blazing eye where... ",And I am lord of all, whether you believe to accept it or notОно? Это будет abomination Silence!, I was first, I am greatest, when all others were but dreams unacted I was there, when the primal forces were birthed onto the world, I was there, and even they could not halt me forever. Not I, not evПомогите мне, пожалуйстаer..." , As it rants, between its words the words of another can be heard, in an incomprehensible language, but in the voice of a young girl... "And you, you claim yourself a lord, tell me your soon-to-be former liege" Remember, in technical terms, 'lord' is merely a high ranked title, but still inferior to the likes of king, ruler, etc. It therefore believes it's talking to someone with no actual rank of value.
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-27-07, 08:05 PM	Sorcen nods as the master talks, "Odd... You misunderstand though, Lord is only the title I choose for myself, ignoring its technical meaning. I am indeed the master and ruler of all of Baator, well an avatar of him as it were. So you claim then to be lord of all, which by your meaning of the term lord indicates that you yourself have a master. This young female voice seems to trouble you, does it not?" Sorcen steps forward and keeps his gaze on the hooded master.
Khael 11-27-07, 08:23 PM	"I did once have a master, back when legions called me allfather, when gods called me doom. My master was existance, but now I no longer bow before him, or you would not be. I have no master now, but myself, No longer do I HAVE to Take all, It shall be Because I Will IT!Никак...!! Baa-tor... I remember when man called my realm hels, then the helsrime after I consumed the suns... I will ...enjoy consuming this new places sun. Trouble? As would an child uncomprehending of life to its guardian maybe, but she will not cry for long... I promise... Tell me mock-vassal, do the worlds of man still survive even after I alone broke them across one knee? I can feel how the once great forces were sundered with my passing, even as they cast me out. I remember their tastes, rich, warm and suuccculent, not like the paltry creatures down there. But I am long-starved I suppose and must take what is there before I feed on my old banquets. Will you provide a fitting meal I wonder?"
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-27-07, 09:01 PM	"I see... Now I know this multiverse's history. You are not of this 'verse, which means you of another 'verse and, if I believe correctly, you are an integral part of your 'verse. You must be lost, if so then I can send you back. If you are here to take over then I can direct you to the proper authorities for the paperwork that you will undoubtedly have to fill out. And truly if it is only that you are hungry then I can direct your attention to some truly dillectible morsels." Sorcen stands straight and still as he says this, his hands behind his back as he gazes at the master.
Khael 11-28-07, 02:23 PM	"Or, I could simply devour you and solve all the above satifactorily with one strike. Your attempts at mindless servitude do not matter, soon I will be returned as I was. This discussion is ended. Leave," as the alst word fills the air, the swarm of little monsters about perk up. I have to say, scripting for an 'ancient' being of immense ego is hellfun.
lunoc 11-29-07, 05:45 PM	jason sudenly stops dead. um, butcher, would you mind telling me what exacly i am looking at? he speaks calmly not blinking or moving his eyes from where he can see the vermin/reaper things.
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-29-07, 08:48 PM	Sorcen cocks an eyebrow at the hooded one, "Leave? Leave from where exactly. And I never said anything about servitude, I wanted a diplomatic deal worked out, if thats not possible then I can always beat you into servitude, I myself dont have any plans to do such medial work." ~ Butcher looks ahead at the beings showing up in his vampiric infared sight. "I'm not sure, they emenate cold as if they are undead and they move like vampires, they almost smell vampiric but they are no vampire breed I've ever seen." OOC: If you've seen Blade 2, these are the split-jaw reaper things from that movie.
Khael 11-30-07, 04:55 AM	I think Sorcen's either misunderstanding or being pedantic: The master/shroud doesn't refer to inself with the servitude, It's referring to Sorcen's offers to help it as inept attempts at toadying. "Pretty *&%$ing true 'dat, we ain't no vampires. Mostly 'cause to call us vampires is giving vamps too much of a *£$^ing ego trip," as the speaker comes into view, anyone with vision in the dark, sees a blond-haired young man, heavy of shoulder and the reason for the screeching sound of metal-on-stone: An immense scythe he drags behind him, as more reapers follow in his wake. "Did I mention I &*%$ing Hate vampires?"
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-30-07, 09:40 AM	OOC: Sorry about that my grammar was atrocious there. Fixed. On another note, yeh this Sorcen is a bit pedantic though, hes also fairly offended at the mere thought of himself as a servant. BIC: Butcher draws his axe and points his pistol at the blonde, "It be a good thing yer not vamps, I wouldnt wanna be associated with such bloody hideousness."
Khael 11-30-07, 09:55 AM	The blonde bliks, "What the... That's what you call a comeback line?! Have you ever ^&*$ing had a look at yourself? 'Cause you ain't no ^%$£ing pretty-boy I can tell ya," thoguh as he talks the reapers gather behind him, and on the ceiling above them... *********************************** "Servitude? You? I should end you now for your insolence, there is nothing you can give I need, and I am unstoppable even in this feeble form. You are no threat. Now once more, Leave this place and me to my efforts."
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-30-07, 10:14 AM	"&%$* you, you're the one with mother%$^&ing third jaw spewing bloody drool everywhere. I'll kick yer #%$&ing &%$^# &@&%stained punk b!^ch *****." With this the enraged dwarf fires a shot from his pistol at the blonde. "Eat my $#!^." ~ "In the end there will only be those two choices once again, serve me or die. For now you still have the option to make a deal with me. But if you truly insist then I can leave you to your efforts for a bit, I suppose it will at least give time to think." Sorcen takes a step backwards and half turns to the edge of the fort. He keeps his gaze with the hooded master as he does so.
Khael 11-30-07, 10:39 AM	The bullet slams into thr blonde's chest, causing him to step back, grinning, "Sorry pretty-boy, but yore goona need a way bigger gun to stop me," amnd so saying he breaks into a charge, swinging about his scythe into attacking position... ************************************** As Sorcen leaves, The figure remains in vigil on the storm-mass, but if Sorcen where to be paying attnetion to the spawn about it, he might almost think that they had gotten bigger...
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-30-07, 11:00 AM	Butcher returns the grin as the green bullet that struck the blonde begins to ooze out of the wound and burns acidically. "Why a big gun when I got big bullets!" At this the dwarf fires another bullet, this one glowing orange to strike the same wound as the green bullet. He swings his axe in defense against the scythe coming at him. ~ Sorcen leaps from the walls of the fort with a grin on his face and teleports from the area as soon as he feels his magic coming back.
Khael 11-30-07, 11:14 AM	"Still not big enoguh, and as someone I know would say, strength ain't weight, but the that lunk bigger than damn near anything else. Bit like this..." as he finishes the swing, the scythe slicing against the axe, blowing Butcher back and over... I assume this is what would happen, since Butcher when to meet the scythe head on, and an immense weight in the hands of an immense strength ...
Sorcen_Anenooata 11-30-07, 11:31 AM	Butcher is sent rolling head over heels as the weighty scythe strikes against his axe. His short legs kick the air until he manages to leap to his feet. "Damn ya, ya bloody racist son of a..." Butcher grumbles as he readies himself. If the orange bullet did indeed strike true, the liquids react after a moment and explode inside the wound with enough force to tear the blonde's ribcage open. The amount of force from the explosion depends on how much of the liquids mixed. OOC: Sorry but this will be my last post for a few hours, gotta go talk to a man about a job.
lunoc 11-30-07, 04:37 PM	butcher, i belive i can handle this. augments are more easily affected by my magics, how much we'll find out, for ive already cast a spell. augment, your oun digestive fluids have been flowing through your veins for about a minute now. ooc: if it works :ooc
Khael 11-30-07, 08:50 PM	The force of the explosion rips nito the blonde's chest half-tearing him in two exposing a... well, inhuman interior dominated by a huge bony protrusion. Dropping his scythe, he snarls at Butcher as Jason's spell takes effect, liquids pouring out of his body, while the blonde seems to hug himself as he heaves, pulling the two half of his body back together, as letting go with one arm, he retrieves his scythe. "Still need a bigger weapon prettyboy..." as the reapers above dive at Butcher and Jason. See, this is why no DM should ever try to stat and use reapers as they are in the film. Stuff like that is totally survivable (Hell, normal vamps there regrow an enitre skin in a week). Seriously, most other films don't show things getting impaled though the stomach and ripping their own guts and...lower parts to shreds with no worries, simply to stop being impaled. Or having your head near torn off by a hammer before gonig on the actual attack, a few seconds after.
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-01-07, 11:49 AM	OOC: Aye these things are fairly hard to kill by anything but the sunlight. BIC: Butcher nods to Jason as teh mage cast the spell to make blondey heave. His nod of approval quickly turns to a stare of anger as the blonde reaper refuses to die from such traumatic injuries. "Gods be damned hes still kicking!" As the other reapers charge in, Butcher swings his axe at one reaper and fires his pistol at some others. "Jason, I be thinking we underestimated em." ~ The guard tower that the master stands in begins to rumble and crack down its entire structure.
munchlord 12-01-07, 05:56 PM	Suddenly a glowing purple orb emerges from the darkness behind Butcher and Jason. It flies at a speed that quickly it is far gone from the spot where you see it before it's light reaches your eyes. The well aimed shot goes right at the chest of the reaper that was once blow in two, the insanely hot plasma burning flesh and vaporizing bone even before it hits it's target. "And the consumer is back in the game." A voice comes from the darkness as Jack walks into sight.
Khael 12-01-07, 07:09 PM	Acting purely on inhuman instinct, the blonde reaper shifts too one side, but too slow to avoid it, the orb, passes though one side of his chest, as he screams, his agonised cries echo though the sewers "F@}*^$£"&^£&*$£%&£$$^!", before dropping the scythe he turns tail and runs, still dripping fluids. "Kill them alll!" ***************************** As the tower splits some of the spawn look down, presumedly with looks of worry, but with the features, not to mention the beings involved, likely no-one on the plane would tell, as the samller ones start to disappear, funneling down the tower, though cracks, leaving the three and their master, as streams of inky blackess coming from the arena belwo blast the tower, causin git to shatter, the three leaping off to safety... But not the master who stands unmoved, two great ribbony swathes extended out, moving in the wind, as the figure hangs in mid-air... "Petty fool. Already with the power brought to me and the power from this land I have begun to truly manifest again. No, it will not be long, when the faithful once more come, and my new strength swells hundredfold of my old, you will be safe..." its words fill the air, as the figures slender arms extend from the billowing cloak, hand flexing like claws as they interlock and pull against one another, "OPEN! I command you, once you opened to show me the door, Twice you opened for my passing, Now thrice I order you to open for my children!" And the twisted clouds above begin to split, as bright and arcane purple light fills the sky...
munchlord 12-02-07, 04:38 PM	"You're welcome to try loosers!" Jack puts the rifle he shot the first reaper with back into his pocket at pulls out another weapon from his pocket... a weapon that there should under no circumstances be space for in them. It looks like some sort of multi-rifle about the size of Jack's torso. He wields it with ease, as if it was weightless, but a single glance can tell that it likely weights more than 1000lb. He points it at the reapers and smiles challengingly.
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-04-07, 11:36 AM	From the base of the tower, a red light shines and flickers as though it were flames. The blood red light clickers and climbs quickly through the cracks in the tower, seeping from the mortar as it tears new cracks into the tower. The red light hungrily climbs to the sky and bursts from beneath the planks of the fort of the tower. The blood light envelopes the master before he can react. As the master is bathed in the blood red light, he feels as if he is burning in the fires of hell, yet wet from a pool of thick icy blood. His very molecules are pulled apart and compressed together at the same time. The red light emanates hunger and melevolence as it consumes the hooded master. The light hangs in the air, seemingly taking the shape of a large red serpent. After several moments it seems to reverse its path down the tower, dragging the master with it. The light fades so quickly that those that saw it wonder if it wasnt a trick of their mind. ~ Butcher embeds his axe into the skull of the nearest reaper and fires his pistol point blank into the thing's face to loose his axe. A blue bullet flies from the barrel and into the reaper's face, exploding on impact and throwing gore in all directions. The axe jumps loose and the dwarf uses the momentum to swing the axe with even greater force than before to strike another reaper in his ribcage as it leaps at him for an attack. The pistol whips around and clicks, firing another bullet out at yet another reaper. This bullet whirs and screechs as it flies and rips through the reaper's chest as the mechanical bullet eats its way through him.
Khael 12-04-07, 03:16 PM	But for all the speed and power of Sorcen's attack, it does not silence two things: The sound of the master's voice echoingacross the arena, nor the crackle of lightning, as with the figure gone, a swirling nebulous blue-black mass huge in size hangs in it's place, forms visible in its shifting: A burning eye here, an immense claw... "Bwahhahahahaha! A fine jape sir, useless though it be, by this point there is no turning back, the doors will open, existance Will feel my wrath. I suppose it would be unsporting of me however not to finally respond in kind would it not? As with a thunderous flash the lightning turns from it, to strike with lethal accuracy at Sorcen's throne... While the swirling form, rushes downwards after the figure and the serpent-form, its nebulous form giving obvious avantage in its hunt ...
lunoc 12-08-07, 03:32 PM	bucher, get down! jason draws a globe of organic matter out of a pouch. magic flows into it, and it begins to radiate a aura ultraviolet light that extends olmost to the walls. jason hurls it through the air and it zooms tward the blond reaper.
Khael 12-09-07, 08:01 AM	"Dammit!", as the globe flies for thr blonde, one of the lesser reapers leaps in its way, as its master flees, the rest following save one who continues its frenzied attack. ************************ In response to some silence call they come, from the sewers, from the buildings, numbers swelled by thousadns from thethose cowering in the buildings, animalistically they crawl and climb, giving vent to their crys as their master stands in the square, his coat flapping in the wind, his lipless jaws in a grin of vicious cruelty... "Kill" If that didn't make it clear 'martial law' was a trap to divide up the denizens of the arena when the reapers could grant more numbers.
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-09-07, 09:48 AM	Butcher winks to Jason, "No worries, I'm immune." He swings his axe once again,this time severing the head from an attacking reaper's body, although this seems to have little effect. He whips his pistol around and fires a explosive round into the chest of yet another reaper.
lunoc 12-15-07, 07:55 PM	jason injects a reaper that leaps at him with a needle contaning a glowing blue virus. the blue fluid can be seen moving through the body, working its way to the brain very fast, rendering the reaper compleatly submissive to jason, but not before it had bitten him. jason crawls away frantically and backs against a wall aah! butcher! ive been biten the infected reaper stands idly by jason as the blue liquid spreads and multiples in him
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-15-07, 10:25 PM	Butcher kicks the headless reaper away from him as another one bites harmlessly at his armor and soon meets the haft of Butcher's axe. The dwarf looks over to Jason as he nonchalantly shoves his pistol into a reaper's mouth and fires an acidic round down its throat. "I know no healing magic, friend. We can only hope..." He pauses to sink his axe into the chest of a reaper and uses an explosive bullet from his pistol to free his blade. "...Well friend, we can only hope methinks."
lunoc 12-15-07, 11:32 PM	jason is running out of drugs, he pulls a vial aut of his pocket and drinks it. this will forstall infection, but i only have 5 and they dont last long the infected reaper helps jason to his feet and supports him
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-16-07, 12:10 AM	Butcher kicks at one of the fallen reaper's twitching body, impatient at the momentary pause of the reapers' attack. "A retreat to the surface for healing then Jason? I can get the door..." The vampire smoothly spins his pistol and lands it in its holster on his side and in the same motion draws his shotgun from his back. He aims the gun straight up and angles it slightly and winks as he fires a pulsating green burst of energy. The green energy shot smashes into the ceiling and breaks loose a large chunk of the sewers that whistles as it falls through the air, aiming to smash a concentrated group of the reapers. The blast wasnt enough to break through the arena floor though but the dirt aboce buckles and rains dust down into the sewers. The arena floor suddenly gives way as two of the black groundtroop beings fall through and land with a splash and a thick rain of dirt. Butcher calls upon his innate vampiric powers and begins to levitate. He sheaths his axe on his back along with his shotgun as he draws his pistols. He motions to Jason with one pistol. "Grab on, let's blow this joint." OOC: If you didnt want to do this then just say so and I can change this around a bit to match, I got a little carried away with the post I think.
lunoc 12-16-07, 12:18 AM	cant.. the infection, cant let it spread... the blue infectee releases a spray of blood on the others, infecting them. find... the source all but the carier take off down the sewers. the carrier helps jason follow
munchlord 12-16-07, 07:01 AM	"Oh hells, it's just a bit of virus. Get yourself together and survive for a few hours, then I'll get ya to my healing tank. I'll come for the repay later." Replies Jack as he sprays a few reapers with clouds of needles flying at several times the speed of sound. Fast enough to still be lethal after passing through a foot of granite... granite that would be pulverized in the process.
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-17-07, 10:37 AM	Butcher shrugs, "Works for me then, Prolly shouldnt have blown a hole in the roof I spose." He fires his pistol, sending a bolt of blue energy to pierce the neck of an unturned reaper. The dwarf then flies after Jason, defending his back from reapers. "What is that blue virus you have there, Jason?"
lunoc 12-17-07, 05:56 PM	rewrites the entire genetic structure, very dangerous, but containable
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-18-07, 11:01 AM	Butcher smiles and contemplates with his pistol tapping against his chin as he strokes his beard, "Very interesting. I am an alchemist, hence the weird bullets, so I can whip some of this stuff up if you like, as long as you let me put it into some bullets. We'll talk on this more later though I think." The vampire dwarf remembers where he is and fires a blazing firey bullet into the darkness to strike a concealed reaper in his skull and set his body aflame.
munchlord 12-18-07, 03:43 PM	"Both of ya are liquidiacs huh? I'm a killer, made for that single purpose." Jack says in a relaxed voice as burning rays of plasma arch out from his rifle to burn and cut the reapers in pieces.
lunoc 12-18-07, 05:03 PM	we need to halt the reaper infection, i instructed the reapers i controlled to seek out all others and infec...*cough* infect them, but they cant infect the carrier, it is not pure enough.
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-18-07, 05:44 PM	Butcher raises his pistol to his shoulder, "Naw dont get me wrong, I'm as much of a killer as I am a meddler in the alchemy."
lunoc 12-18-07, 05:59 PM	we need to get moving, butcher i think you should lead the way jason begins to hobble down the sewers
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-18-07, 06:16 PM	"No problem Jason." The dwarf moves to the front and keeps his pistols ready."
munchlord 12-19-07, 02:05 AM	Jack keeps to the front too, seemingly eager to get to torch more reapers. "I figured, else you'd probably be a head shorter, and you're short enough as it is don't you agree?"
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-19-07, 11:21 AM	Butcher chuckles heartily. "Aye that be true, Dwarven wizards tend to be a tiny stock."
lunoc 12-26-07, 09:21 PM	bump
Gideon_Gideonson 12-29-07, 08:25 PM	"ATTENTION BAATOR! APPARENTLY WE'RE ABOUT TO SUFFER SOME SORT OF CATACLYSMIC DISASTER. THE NEXUS OF THE WORLDS IS OVERLOADING, AND KAYLEE'S DUMPING SOME EXCESS HERE. EVERYONE MOVE TO THE SAFEST PLACE WITHIN EASY TRAVEL AND FORTIFY IT IN WHATEVER WAY YOU CAN. NOW." Coin's voice dies away, leaving the entire plane of Baator ringing.
Sorcen_Anenooata 12-30-07, 11:39 AM	Butcher looks around at the sound of the voice. "So abandon our current mission and take shelter or continue to kick reaper ass and cure Jason here? I vote we keep going and get that blonde b*st*rd."
lunoc 12-30-07, 02:43 PM	indeed, some friends of mine should be waiting outside the sewers, they should be able to fight with us once we've finished jason and his pack of infected reapers continue down thed tunnels
munchlord 12-30-07, 05:18 PM	"Cataclysmic disaster my hind quaters! Let's go do some reaper slaughtering." Jack gives his opinion too, certainly not the least worried about that cataclysmic event that it seemingly heading this way.
Khael 01-04-08, 01:44 PM	"A wasste." "Iss it." "They have failed and indeed one hass tried to overwrite them." "Perhapss." "Of course one weaknesss of tampering iss it iss weak against further tampering." "Or to the greater viruss." "Very well. But there wil be only one chance." "Agreed" "Indeed" .... As the trio carry on down the tunnel, the sound of scraping starts to echo down the tunnels...
munchlord 01-04-08, 03:02 PM	Jack is not late to touch the metasphere and use it's power to learn more about the creatures coming forth. He seems absentminded as his mind dives into the recorded memories of the creatures.
lunoc 01-05-08, 01:03 PM	the pack of infected reapers gather around jason, as he grunts in pain, he shakes violently, but he manages to drink a vial of the forestalling agent. he breathes hevily, after a few seconds he's fine. he takes out another cigarette and lights it, taking a long drag on it. the reapers he sent to scout come back. the make strange gurgling noises. they found nothing, but, a few of them disappeared down one tunnel. the reapers replicate the scraping sounds thats strange, they say they heard that noise louder down the tunnel.
