*Exili, a young woman clothed in long blue silky robes with long pale blue hair flowing down her back, makes her way through the crowded streets wildly. The whole damn city had been under attack and she had fled into a hiding spot, but just now emerged to find the city in bad shape. They were definetly closed and locked in behind the high city walls, enemy guards stood at every post.. eager to shoot down anyone that gets close enough, casualty numbers were soaring, and the injured laid about the streets along with the hostile peasants! It was a mess as Exili pushed her way through nervously, holding her short staff close to her chest. She was a pure, beautiful girl in a sea of bruised and battered faces.*

“That’s it! keep them coming, lets not give up!”
The Archmage of Light was keeping a brave face for the peasants.
He was trying to get food and water to the needy that had sought shelter with him in the sanctuary.
But it wasn’t easy as volley after volley of rocks and arrows came flying over the city wall.

Lady Hoot was healing as many people as she could, in the simi burnt out temple.
Many were hurt and others were near death.
“Let us pray for a miracle”

The lovely white owl began to pray as other joined in.

*Exili stumbles up the temple steps and comes through the door. She lets out a heavy sigh and makes her way down the hall, weaving around the injured ones lying on mats. She was identified by a healer of some sort and many people looked to her desperately. Exili's heart cried out to them silently.*

"I apologize for my lateness, I was delayed," she says to Agudo, "Where should I start? There's so many..."

A black-scaled juggernaut has thrown himself into the melee with wild abandon, hacking, slashing, and hurling destructive spells to and fro. He has summoned a force of shadows and a nightcrawler shade. A mound of bloody, burnt corpses is rapidly building around him

Up on the walls, the few guards that are left are in dissaray. Most are dead, and most of the remainder are cowering. However, one young man still stands valientlly. His armor gleams, and he fires his bow like there's no tomorrow (which there might not be). A catupult shot hits the wall he's on, and he falls onto the crowded streets, and rubble falls on him, pinning him.

*Exili gasps as she listens to the assault raging on outside the temple and shakes her head.*

"If only they would stop fighting..." she mutters as she heals a mans twisted arm.

*She finishes about five more injuries before rushing outside to see how much damage has been done and nearly cries out. As she stands up at the top of the temple stairs a gentle breeze blows through, her light robes fluttering and her hair brushing to the side.*

"There is much to do," she says solemnly, soon descending the stairs into the fray, calmly.

*She suddenly spots the young man that has been pinned under the debris and rushed towards him.*

You see far away a quick shadow flying, soon it is near, and it appears draconic, with ruby scales. creature then lands, and you find it is not a dragon, rather a half-dragon of the female persuasion. as soon as she hits the ground, she runs over and quickly scoops up the rubble. "Go!" she booms.
Exiled_Beauty

03-25-04, 10:17 AM
*Exili nods and runs under, picking up the young man and dragging him out to safety... well almost. It seems the crowds have gone hostile again and Exili and the injured soldier are right in the middle of it.*

Agudo wipe his hands of the blood from the many people.
“I say Lady Hoot, I think we have got most of the people stable.”

The wise owl nodded her head and gave a half but sad smile.
“Yes we have worked hard this day, but sadly the city may fall soon.
For the enemy has it sounded for nearly a year now. We barely have any food left in this doomed city”

Agudo frowned but did not argue.
“Lets stay focused on the here and now and pray for a miracle”

03-28-04, 08:48 PM
The ruby-scaled half dragon peered hautily at the advancing crowd. slowly opening her wide mouth, and crushing the rubble in her hands. "cease and desist! this is your one and only warning, If you do not decisit, you may leave the city immediately, and be slaughtered by those outside!" as she does this, her eyes glow bright, hypnotically, convincing the crowd that aggression is not the best path/
Exiled_Beauty

03-29-04, 06:20 PM
*Exili watches the great draconian in awe, kneeling down beside the the rescued soldier. To her disbeilf, the crowd slowly calms and an eerie silence washes over the streets as a breeze picks up. Exili stands slowly, gazing at the half-dragon with a warm smile.*

"Thank goodness you're here to stop the fighting," she calls softly.
Sliver_Over_Mind

03-30-04, 10:24 PM
"I am no hero" the half-dragon responds to Exili "my name is Sha'naru, daughter of Sha'malus avatar of Sardior" "I am here to bring forth the message of the Ruby Dragon, for he is ascendant." "this was once a great city if I am not mistaken?" "besieged by your enemies is not a happy fate for such a once pround city." Sha'naru shouts "Go to your homes! and beg that they still stand before the year is out." her eyes glow bright once more, then her entire body, all shining with a luminesent light, casting a red glow across the square. the light spreads further, protecting the city from harm "Sardior the meddeler is more like it" she whispers "Congragulations!" she calls to Exili "Sardior wants this city to praise him!" "this is Sardior's handiwork, and he commands me to save this city, despite the fact that even the other Gods have abondoned it." she calls sweeping around, most particularly at the temple, and it's ruined state.

drops from the sky landing near the argemage. It is clear from his face that he has been flying a long time. From his hand a large sack falls to the ground spilling food and medicines to the floor as he gets his breath back
Captain Binkle

04-01-04, 09:00 AM
Captain Waldo Binkle stared in awe at the sight of the half-ruby dragon as it started to lay ruin upon the attackers. A club sweeping above the gnomish captain's head brought him from his daze. Captain Binkle quickly drew forth a rapier and stabbed at the foolish orc with blinding speed. Putting it down as a troll charged at Captain Binkle.
The gnomish captain grined and said an arcane phrase. The rapier blade instantly set itself ablaze. The troll halted it's charge a the site of the flaming rapier. "Your not getting away that eazily," shouted Captain Binkle as he charged the troll
The troll howled in pain as Waldo ran to it. Stuck in the back of the felled trolls back was two flaming throwing axes. Hale nodded to the captain and placed two more throwing axes into a fire, preparing to throww them. Thorn, Hale's brother, was savagely tearing through the enemy ranks heading to the ruined church, roaring all the way.
Captain Binkle looked around and sees a lovely woman helping a fallen soldier. He pulled forth a vile and walked up to the woman. "Here, give him this. It should help," the captain said handing the lady a healing potion.

as he enters the fray he breathes hard spreading fire across the front row of his opponents sending the few that survive reeling back into those behind causing chaos in the orcish ranks

Before Lady Hoot the wise white owl could reply a simple thank you to the flying creature.
It storms out of the ruined temple and does battle with the enemy.
“Come my fellow Clerics lets test these medicines on the most needy first.”

As she goes about her work of healing, Agudo ponders what should be done now.
“Will the city fall?
Or has someone else decided to intervene in the sad fate of this people?”

dives back inside the church motioning madly as a shield flutters into exsistence across the door and windows and ricohard slides to the floor
Sliver_Over_Mind

04-01-04, 01:19 PM
Sha'naru walked into the temple, carefully making sure as to not scare or hurt the injured, walking up to Adugo she queries "since you have been in this place longer than I have, what is the best way to stop the fighting?" "I know that violence rarely helps these situations, but there are orcs out there, ready to fight."
Captain Binkle

04-02-04, 07:54 AM
Thorn slashed through the orc ranks, roaring with rage. His twin longswords leading the way to the church. Two flaming throwing axe flew by his face into an orcs chest. Killing the reched creature and throwing Thorn further into his rage.
Hale produced two throwing axes from the back of a fallen troll. He touched the torch to the axes, setting them ablaze. Hale noticed his brother heading for the church. He threw the flaming axes at and orc in front of Thorn. The axes landed solidly into it's chest. Hale couldn't help but smile seeing his brother so mad. After all, Hale was up twenty-seven kills to ninteen.
Thorn was in his deepest rage. Orcs were moving for the barbarian as he charged to the church. He didn't care about who was ahead in kills. The only thing that mattered to Thorn was his bloodlust. Until he was knocked unconcious by a greatclub from a troll.
This was no ordinary troll. It wore scalemail and held a wicked greatclub above it's head ready to smash the brother into the ground.
With a mighty roar that echoed threw the city, Hale grabed an orcs scimitar and charged the armored troll. Hale stood above his fallen brother. Slashing wildly at the troll, Hale had unbalaced the armored troll for a second.
But a second was all Hale needed. He leaped up, and with his mightiest roar, he slashed the trolls neck. Opening it's neck, and showering Hale in it's blood. Hale pulled another torch from his bag, lit it, and placed it on the armored troll. Hale picked up his brother and ran to the church. Accepting minor hits the whole way.
Hale entered the church and franticly searched for a cleric to heal his brother.
Captain Binkle

04-02-04, 09:42 AM
After helping the lady and the soldier, Captain Binkle begins to head for the church. An orc stabbed at the gnomish captain. "Run," Waldo said holding an emerald he had won in a card game. The orc turned and fled. Waldo grinned, thinking himself superior. Then a boulder smashed into a building not far from where he stood. That's when the hill giants came.
Leading the hill giants was an orc with a great axe in hand, and wearing spiked splintmail. The leader yelled something in its grunting language. Then something in the giants dialect.
Another volley of boulders came crashing into the city. One going through the roof of the church. Some of the boulders were aimed at the half-ruby dragon. Who dodged the volley as if childsplay.
Captain Waldo Binkle quickened his pace to the church. He called out to the city. "To arms!! To arms!!! The giants have come!!!" shouted Captain Binkle. He made it to the church as Hale stepped out wielding his brothers twin longswords, and looking grim. "It's too much for you, boy," said Waldo. "The orcs are too many and the giants only weaken our odds. Please Hale, help defend the church. There isn't anyone I would rather die next to," Captain Waldo Binkle said patting Hale on the back.
Hale nodded to the captain, shut the door, and began to brace the door.
Captain Binkle walked up to the cleric tending to Thorn. "Is he alright?" asked the captain.
"Ask him yourself," replied the cleric as Thorn sat up.
"Thorn," Waldo said getting the attention of the barbarian. "Help your brother. It's going to be a long day," Captain Binkle said taking a swig of his "aleskin".

*Exili rushes into the temple and lies the injured soldier down on a mat, tending to him with the potion she was given. Higher Beings praise these people! Soon she stands, hearing shouts and commotion. Not another attack! She picks up her quarter staff and strides to the open doors, peering out upon the arranging crowd.*

"Let none be hurt," she prays, brushing back her wispy hair and letting out a tired sigh.
ShadeShinobi

04-02-04, 10:20 PM
The monster battles on, covered head to toe in blood and gore, surrounded by his dark minions. When he sees the half-dragon, he bows reverently, then continues the battle, grinning, even when he is stabbed or slashed. Soon, the soldiers begin to avoid him, and he goes on the offensive. He takes a serious wound to the side from a soldier's halberd, and promptly cuts him down. Gasping, he hurls globes of darkness all around the field and scourges the enemy with chaotic energies, then dashes to the city
Sliver_Over_Mind

04-02-04, 11:58 PM
"I don't have time for this!" the half dragon then bursts out of the temple, seeking to prevent the battle from getting out of hand. a further shout gives her voice a piercing quality, to go beyond the shrieks of swords and cries of battle "stop! there is no need for violence!" she continues to shriek, hoping to not kill or injure anyone, trying to stop the fighting, looking hopelessly around at the massive groups of orcs and giants, almost on the verge of rage and tears as everyone ignores her, continuing to fight. "this war will end!" she then leaps into the air, taking flight quickly flying above the orcish hordes. she makes a quick pass, picking up a particularly intellegent looking orc "where is your leader?" she says, almost calmly. as the orc splutters for air, she seems to grow more rageful, she then loses her last temper, her calm and her mercy. she sweeps in, and crushes a catapult firerer (I don't really know what they are called) she then destroys the catapult before the press of orcs surrounds her, then takes to the air again.
Ricohard_Draconis

rises from his collapsed position and stalks back out into the battle and following the example of the other half-dragon takes to the air and stages hit and run attacks on any large group of orcs

"Now lets see Orcs?"

Before Agudo or Hoot could say anything once more the two barge out into the mist of war.

Agudo frowns.
"But? I was thinking?"
Exiled_Beauty

04-04-04, 09:11 PM
*Exili nearly screams as the two orcs burst in through the temple doors and passed her. What's next? They head off of in some odd direction and Exili glances over to see Agudo looking quite perplexed, if not, confused.*

"I'm going to slip outside then, if it's not too dangerous. Who knows what's happened since I was gone?" she murmurs, almost to herself. A few injured people on mats look up at her with a look of bewilderment.
Ricohard_Draconis

04-05-04, 07:30 AM
notices the orcs have breached the church wheels round and lands racing inside throughing magic at the two orcs who have entered blasting them to peices before taking up a guarding position over the door and blasting any orc that approaches, he turns his head to speak to who ever is careing for the wounded

"how many have we got still here?"
Exiled_Beauty

04-05-04, 09:21 AM
"How many wounded? Dozens and dozens and the numbers are increasing. If only someone could stop this fighting!" she replies sadly.
Sliver_Over_Mind

04-05-04, 11:56 PM
as she slowly regains her wield on her emotions, she stops her attacking, and begins to search out those helpless on the battle field, rather than crushing orcs. she then quickly picks up a few survivors, and goes back to the church to get them healed, depositing them on the church's steps.
Ricohard_Draconis

04-06-04, 10:52 AM
turns his head to look at the woman behind him

"Much as i would love too i don't think the orcs intend to stop any time soon."

looks around the inside of the church

"do you know if we have access to an alternateive way out of her possibly into the catacombs?"
Exiled_Beauty

04-06-04, 07:30 PM
"Catacombs? Yes, but they are ancient and have been locked for ages. We could try to open them up and weave through. Perhaps they dump outside from the sewers," Exili replies, thinking out loud as she speaks.

Hale ran from the temple and into the chaos of the battle. He drew a great axe that he hed taken from a dead frost giant after he and his brother left home. The barbarian noticed a black scaled wizard throwing spell like snowballs.
Hale had always had a dislike towards wizards. The incident that caused this hatred had taken the life of his mother and his ability to speak. With a mighty roar, Hale threw the great axe. To Hale's amazment the great axe had hit the wizard squarily in the ribs. Then the great axe reappeared in Hales hand. He grinned and charged at the wizard.

(ooc: wow... triple post. ^_^)

*Exili can hear the sickening clamor of the battle outside the haven and she shudders for a moment before coming to her senses.*

"Yes, we cannot pull through another battle. Let's get anyone that isn't hostile that's still alive and make a run for it!" she suggests, a bit of hope in her heart.

*Exili bravely rushes outside again, overlooking the madness.*
Sliver_Over_Mind

04-08-04, 11:03 PM
Sha'naru began to take a defensive stance, protecting the temple against attackers. She quickly flew off circling taking reconacense postion, flying quickly, striking targets from the air with more mysterious powers. each time she took on a glow, bright and powerful she lost more of her temper, growing less controllable constantly.
Exiled_Beauty

04-08-04, 11:08 PM
*Exili searches the streets with her gaze desperately, but all she can see is chaos and mindless slaughtering. Suddenly, the west wall collaspes into rubble and debris and the menacing enemy armies rush in to clear the streets of everything and anything, innocents included. Tears form in Exili's eyes as she backs up against the door in horror, watching on at the mutiny.*
Captain Binkle

04-09-04, 09:48 AM
Dispite the battle that raged outside Captain Waldo Binkle helped the clerics heal the wounded. He handed out every healing potion he had on him. "Thorn, how does your brother fair?"
Thorn looked back at the gnomish captain with a sad expression. "Not well," the barbarian brother said somberly.
"Well, get out there and help him out," Waldo commanded.
Thorn smiled wickedly as he drew forth his twin longswords. He stepped out of the temple and proclaimed his presence. "For the fallen!!!!" Thorn roared as he lept into the carnage of battle. His longswords moved fluidly. He attacked several orc with grace that rivaled the most experienced of elves.
He heard a mighty roar and looked to see Hale charge at a wizard. Thorn had heard the stories of how Hale had nearly died trying to protect their mother. Thorn redirected his movement to catch up to his brother. Who had left himself open after throwing his great axe at the wizard. The wizard accepted the thrown greataxe and continued to fight. The wizard turned on Hale as he got to him. Thorn couldn't believe his eyes. The great axe that Thorn had thrown had reappeared in his hand. Thorn doubled his effort to get to his brother.
Captain Binkle

04-09-04, 10:00 AM
Captain Waldo Binkle had many friends. One of which had given him a small palm-sized mirror, which he pulled out. Waldo said something that he didn't understand. When the mirror became foggy he said the name, "Devin Everguard".
Out of the fog came the image of a high elven wizard absent-mindedly thumbing through a book. He stopped suddenly and looked at the scrying window. "Captain Binkle," he said jovially( i hope i spelled that right). "What business are we to do today."
The gnomish captain began to explain what had happened to the city. Before Waldo could finish the mirror became foggy again.
"Damned device," the gnomish captain cursed. "Next time I get a scrying mirror from my brother."

*Exili tumbles to the floor.*

"They've come to slay us all!" she gasps, looking over at the draconian, "I was stricken with fear. Thank you for pulling me in, but we haven't much time. The enemy armies will sweep through the city like a plague."

*She stands and rushes back to some of the less injured soldiers.*

"If any of you can walk, come with us. There's a way out," she speaks.

04-11-04, 01:29 PM
The mysterious warlock works his hands in a mudra of healing, then whispers "Sha." His axe wound disappears, leaving a long, white scar. He rushes to meet the warriors that have breached the walls, and many of them are felled before they even see the whirlwind of death that has descended upon them. He pulls out a small, strange-looking polyhedron and hurls it at the army. A wave of black, burning acid washes out from it, slaying a score of men. "Get moving! Fast!" He yells to the people in the church

Suddenly a blue and white robed figure came running by.
Huffing and puffing as he did so.

With him just barely holding onto his shoulder, was the same white owl from the temple.
“Trust…(Pant)… me! its better to keep running…(Cough)
No shame in living to fight for another day!”

He holds his knees as he bends over to catch his breath.
“Besides the difference between a wizard and an Archmage is… ones dies in a lost cause while a Archamge knows when to keep running”

With that Agudo was off heading for the hills, as the hordes of beasts followed close behind. :turkey:

Jhev dodged around the wall, "Tis a bright shin'n day. Why yer long faces?"
He discarded his dusty robes and drew is twin blades, "Tis work to be done!"

With that the elf dodged back around the wall and began fighting the orcs in his dizziing style, always moving in a circle, and always turning to a new oponent.
'I wonder 'ow long I'll last a'fore I fall," Jhev wondered aloud as he slashed another orc's throat, "To an Orc no less!"

he looked up to see trolls charging towards him, "What be behind door number two?"
he jumped through the broken door of the nearest building and leaped through a window on the other side, making is way as quickly as possible back to the group, "There sure is a lot of 'em!"

ShadeShinobi

04-21-04, 08:48 AM
He continues to battle on, but then he sees a hulking figure making it's way towards him. He recognizes the shaggy black fur and long horns instantly. A minotaur. It wears flowing crimson robes and carries a huge morningstar. It raises it's huge hand at Sihgneg, and a red bolt of necromantic energy flies towards him. He narrowly dodges the bolt, and it reduces a trio of orcs behind him to withered husks. "Gods-dammit! A minotaur mage!" He bellows, putting his blade into the heart of a goblin
Captain Binkle

04-21-04, 09:10 AM
Devin had gotten the gnomish captain's message and teleported the the city. He ended up on the roof of a tower. "Whats this," he said to himself staring towards a large battering ram. Where sitting next to it riding sub-terranian lizards were a group of five drow. Three of which appeared to be Priestesses. "That won't do," the Epic archmage said perparing a very powerful spell
Ten minutes later Devin unleased a Vengful Gaze of God upon the drow. All five of the drow died instantly and Devin had hurt himself from the backlash of the spell. He teleported back to his tower before he could witness the domino effect of the army. Desention began among the ranks. Giants began ordering orcs, who refused to obey. The lesser goblinoids began to scatter, as the giants started crushing insubordiant orcs and goblinoids.

*Exili can hear the uproar in the city and glances back, slowing to a stop. She stands there on a small hill right outside the city for a while, hoping that the magical noises and cries of creatures means that their city has won.. not the other way around. She then shakes herself from her trance and turns to Sha'naru.*

"The ones with me ran ahead..." she manages to say.

opens his eyes and stands moving over to a clear spot not far from the injured and begins to move his hands through complicated patterns mumbling under his breath

Sihgneg works his way towards the monstrous sorcerer, leaving a river of orcan blood in his wake. After a few minutes and a score of orcs, he reaches the minotaur and raises his Shadowstaff, hurling a bolt of pure darkness into the beast's chest and thrusting at it's foot with his ninja-to, drawing a pool of blood. The enraged minotaur howls and bashes the ground where Sihgneg had been seconds before, then sending an explosion of lightning at him. The shinobi dodges some, but takes the brunt of the explosion

Jhev looks back at the unruly army of orcs and the like.
"I didn't think I did that much damage!" he laughed, leaning against a rock, "But I guess that'll 'ave t' do for now, eh!"
As he watched a giant stomped several orcs. He made an exagerated wince, "Ah! That 'ad t' hurt the li'el blaggards!"

*Exili stands well out in the open, wondering why on earth no one is leaving the prison of a city. Are all the innocents and peasants dead? Is there only bloodthirsty and raging beasts left in there? She ponders these things while slowly making her way back closer to the broken walls, and even closer to battles and whizzing arrows. Suddenly, as she stands atop the rubble to seek out any injured or helpless beings, an arrow flashes by. Then dozens more zig by and Exili is hit, falling back and rolling down the heap of rubble with a scream.*

Sihgneg casts a globe of darkness around the monstous sorcerer's head, blinding him. He draws his swords and thrusts into the heart of the defenseless beast. Only a few orcs are left, fighting amongst themselves, so he goes to see if his kuji-in is needed anywhere

*Exili lies there, dazed and numb.*

"Damn..." she groans, seeing the thin arrow embedded in her side.

*She almost loses herself in the pain before attempting a healing spell.*

finnishes his casting and opens a glowing portal in the air and begins to usher the injured through casting his gaze around for the cleric

Sihgneg sifts through corpses, looking for anyone still alive. He sees a movement somewhere, and digs more quickly

*Exili breathes out a long sigh, relaxing her body. A little of the pain had been supressed, but she couldn't ease the arrow out when it was so deep inside her. So she just laid there.*

"...just... great," she cursed.

Sihgneg finds the young woman buried under some corpses. Working his hands in a complex pattern, he says 'Sha' and blue and gold light streams from his hands, healing her. He moves on, looking for more victims.

*Exili sits up in a daze.*

"Who was that?" she whispers to herself, pulling herself up.

Captain Binkle

Hale, Thorn, and Captain Binkle stood at the ruined enterence to the temple. Hale and Thorn argued over who had claimed the most kills during the course of the battle. Waldo on the other hand looked over the battle-worn city with dispire. He had lived for nearly 300 years. A time when most gnomes are starting to plan where they're going to settle down.
"I'm too old for all this," Captain Binkle said waving his hand dismissively. Which stopped Hale from fighting his brother. Thorn was nearly going to throw the first punch when he noticed the captain.
"Don't listen to me," Captain Binkle said when he noticed the brothers watching him. "You both know it would take more gold than the lords of Greyhame could muster." Captain Binkle began to walk towards the docks. "Well are you coming or not!" Captain Binkle yelled to the brothers who rushed to catch up.
