[[Hihi just joined up, don't really know your rules but i'm talkin to someone who frequents here :) so yep. gonna start an RP.

Name:
Age:
Gender:
Hair color:
Hair style:
Eyes:
Clothes:
Personality:
Special stuff:


Name: Keria Miliain
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Hair color: Light blonde
Hair style: barely wavy, goes to back
Eyes: Grey/Blue
Clothes: White sleeveless shirt that is very midriff, lined with gold. Dark reddish jacket with baggy sleeves, light tan pants and dark brown sandals. Kinda small necklace with a red jewel in it.
Personality: Nice, outgoin, likes to help people even if it might disadvantage her.
Special stuff: Pretty good at using a bow, sings well

note: this isnt modern; it is fantasy. so no bikes and crap. no godmoding, magic is fine :) No major playing as other peoples chars (little stuff is fine)]]


"Ahh~" Keria stretched as she got up from her little resting spot under the shade of a tree. It was spring, and her family decided that she was old enough to look for a new place to live. She had always wanted to travel, and now that she could, that's exactly what she was doing.

She had strayed from a troddened path surrounded by a vast, bright field of grass. Spring was, very much, in the air.

As she stood, she sighed, breathing in that new, spring smell. It was a warm day, and the sky was spotless. She had on her back a backpack, with a blanket, some food, a few books, and some money in it. She knew from the merchants in her town that she was far from any other town, but she had been walking for three days and wasn't yet deterred by anything. Keria's spirits were still high and she knew that she would eventually find a place to stay. If the next down didn't appeal to her, she would move to another, and another, until she found the right one.

Keria stepped back onto the path and continued her journey, hoping to see something to amuse her for a bit so it would not be so boring.

[[ :P short, but there's not much i can do right now XD.]]

Just so you know, it'd be best to make a sign-up page first; then after you have a few sure players then make the actual RP. Just a tad of friendly infor for ya'. ;)

It'll be interesting to see how a less-defined, open RPG like this does here.

Name: Kaden Locke
Age: 20
Hair color: Dark brown
Hair style: Straight, shoulder-length
Eyes: Amber
Clothes: White pants, a grey shirt, a black coat, and a loose white muffler. All are cotton; not terribly expensive-looking but clearly well made. Grey leather moccasins.
Personality: Friendly, though bit greedy at times.
Other: Adept at life-force manipulation, skilled with other metaphysical forces. Has basic training in physical magics. Carries a mid-length ivory staff with which he is at least competent, if not particularly skilled.

-----

Kaden sat on the side of a dirt path in the forest, slowly eating the last of the bread he had taken with him. He wondered absently how near he was to the next town. It was not a matter of real consequence to him--he could sustain himself through other means--but after several days on the road, he was growing more than a little bored.

Having finished his meal, he rose slowly, took up his staff, and began walking on again.

Slowly, the woods began to clear. The ground covering of leaves and shrubs gave way to wild grasses. As he walked on however, Kaden noticed that the path too was being overtaken. It was not long before the road he was following had completely disappeared.

Kaden sighed. This was not the first time he had lost the path on these old country roads. At least this time, he thought, it wasn't in an overgrown forest. Concentrating heavily, he raised himself up from the ground. Once above the grasses, he slowly began moving forward. Flight had never been easy for him, but the wind was at his back, and soon he was going along at a brisk pace.

It was only an hour before he found another path. Kaden dropped to the ground, relieved; the flying was beginning to give him a headache. He sat down to rest for a minute. Looking around, he noticed someone coming up the path. He got up and readied his staff, preparing himself to deal with any conflict that might arise. As the figure drew closer he saw that it was only a girl, dressed well and walking without any particular sense of hurry. His apprehension eased, Kaden waved and called out to the stranger. "Hello! Would you be so kind as to tell me where this path leads?"

Heheh. I'll have fun with this being neither serious or goofy all the time :P

Name: Matej Kovar
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Hair color: Silver
Hair style: Long, but still keeps the shape of the head (ie. it's long for short hair but not quite long hair)
Eyes: Sky Blue
Clothes: Black suit with a white shirt underneath. Looks clean and high class without being gaudy.
Personality: Friendly and very carefree, especially towards those of the opposite sex.
Description: A person of high upbringing who's experience and training has made him rather skilled in self-defense in almost all situations. However, he refuses to engage in serious combat even when attacked, escaping in any way possible. He has extensive magic training but they have never been used to any great extent outside of practice and lighting fires. Who knows what he keeps in his large backpack.

-----

Matej walked down the long path eating his sandwich and complaining to himself about the bugs that raided his backpack every time he stopped to take a rest. As he continued towards the next town, he noticed a man floating above the ground approaching another figure walking along the path. Matej tensed as there was the possibility of there being a road robbery from the way the man was approaching but eased as the man made a greeting gesture to the figure.

"Lucky!" he thought as this would be the first human companionship he'd had in days. He quickened his pace to the pair and noticed it was a man not too far from his own age and a woman. A woman.

"Hello, my sweet fluttering dove, " he said as he reached into his backpack completely overriding the man who had just approached her. "A rose, for you, a woman more beautiful than an artwork painted by the most....masterful painter." He extended his reach and presented an enchanted rose to the woman with a deep bow. "This rose represents my love, imbued with the longetivity of a diamond, and I humbly present this to you. May I ask you your name, my sweet flower?"

Yea well, why not eh?

Name: Alfred Iruga
Age: 24
Hair color: Black
Hair style: 2 inches above the shoulder, well kept, hangs down straight, as though straightened, tied back from his eyes, shorter at the nape of the neck, longer on the sides.
Facial features: Strong jaw, slender nose, kind of pointed, well kept eyebrows, small forehead, small ears, thin lips, clean shaven.
Eyes: Hard and cruel, Vivid Green
Clothes: Black leather pants (not shiny), a dark purple shirt, a black coat, with golden thorns (embroidery) climbing the sleeves, dark green leather gloves with the palm and fingers cut off, and a long brown cloak. Not expensive, but clean and well cared for.
Personality: Generally nice, but with a tendency to a "What's in it for me?" attitude. Thinks he is a coward, but always finds the courage when the time comes. Low self confidence.
Description: Despises his first name (who wouldn't?), always goes by Iruga. He learned the rapier at a high class fencing school. His instructors called him "exceptional, but lacks confidence and motivation." They refused to commit on how he would do in a real fight. At 18 he left his family in search of "wine, women, adventure, and of course treasure". Called a "gentleman adventurer" by most, he removes the adventure part.

------
Iruga slowed his horse to a walk. He spotted a small pond by the road, and stopped to water his horse. Jumping off his horse and landing lightly, he cursed himself for leaving his old horse behind. "there was no risk you cowardly fool" he muttered to himself. At 24, he was fit and lean, with long black hair tied back out of his eyes. He looked at his mare, a down-at-heel nag, as his foster-father would have said. After his meal of hard, crusty bread, he jumped back on his horse, and continued his ground-eating pace.

About an hour later, he noticed 3 people standing in the middle of the road. 2 men and a woman. One of the men, the better dressed of the two, was offering a rose to the woman. Iruga snorted with laughter, figuring he was witnessing a shoddy seduction. He reined in just in time to catch the fool man's last words. "This rose represents my love, imbued with the longetivity of a diamond, and I humbly present this to you. May I ask you your name, my sweet flower?" He burst out laughing, and swung off his horse. "Good chance my friends" he said, with an ear to ear grin. "You came on too strong my friend, let me show you how it's done." He turned to the woman and said "Good afternoon my lady. While we are currently travelling in opposite directions, I guarantee what you are looking for is not in that town back there. It is a wreck. How about you follow me in my adventures? I will make a fine traveling companion! I assure you my intentions are honourable, and any time you wish it, I will mount up, and ride away. What, pray tell, is your name?"

Well, i am particulalry drawn to there kinds of RPGS... so open that they are fun! You can just keep moving alond with them like it was nothing.
***
Name: Vetrix Orstess
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Hair Color: Dark Brown
Hair Style: Shaggy and slightly long, it is pulled to one side to keep out of his eyes with the help of a gray, cloth headband.
Clothes: The clothes he wheres are a gray, long-sleeved shirt that he wears under his dark green leather vest, and slightly baggy, green, cloth pants that overlap his brown leather boots. He also has a long brown-gray cloak. Commoner / poverty class style of clothing...
Personality: He is a very content person, life comes and goes for him day by day, he lives for the moment and only plans on his agenda for tommorow are to be alive and well. Helpful as he is loyal, Vetrix tends to stay in trouble due to his constant want to find someone who will take him as their "armor bearer". He waits for the day when he feels the need to improve for that person...adding to his loneliness...
Special Stuff: Vetrix is one fairly skilled young men with a great aptitude for combat and a quick wit that adds to his sense of awarness. He has developed the ability to pre-determine arrow destinations before they fly, allowing him to dodge arrows...but this is rather uncommon due to the fact that he needs a certain amount of notice to pinpoint the weapons target and move ( if its out of the bow before he notices the archer, he can't do anything but wait...) other than that he values the swordsmanship of those unsurpassed few but has no skill whatso ever, and wishes for a teacher....
***
Vetrix lay spread amongst the tall flowing grasses that waved as an ocean as the cool spring winds swept through the valley. The path he had been walking was maybe thirty-five yards away from him, paths made everything seem so direct, and there was no fun in seeing where you were going unless you were in some real trouble.
He grinned at the recolection of the night at the last village inn he had visited. Calling out in a drunken madness to those young maidens looking for a good adventure. His grin faded when he then remembered their husbands arming themselves and taking on the hunt. Vetrix brought up his right arm and he held his cloak in hand, a large beam of that glorious sunshine shone through a slit where an enraged man had thrown a pitchfork at him while he ran into this field. He then went still at a muffled laughter coming from down the torward the path and sat up to see who it was.

OOC: I see about finishing it later gotta go!

[[@sabe: i've got an RP forum of my own and i've found it's more trouble to do a sign up sheet :P whoever wants to join will join :) ]]

[[@cfi: ::spit drink on monitor when i saw your icon:: YOU'RE HERE?? fawk now i feel like a geek :( ]]



Keria looked at the person who seemed to walk towards her out of nowhere. "Umm..well.." she began, sounding unsure. "I actually don't know where this road leads." She gave a nervous laugh. "I'm traveling~" She wondered who this was; she hadn't seen many people apart from the ones in the village, and this person looked very different.

[[cfi: "and a woman. A woman." sum1's lookin 4 luv lawl??]]

As the second person approached her, she realized this place must be close to a town since so many people were appearing. As he offered her a rose, she laughed nervously, never having recieved this gesture before and not really knowing what to make of it. But the rose did not have any thorns (which she knew where usual) and thought that he must obviously be magical.

"Umm...thanks.." She said, returing his bow with a curtsie, still feeling extremely odd.. especially now that a third person approached... Responding to them both, she muttered, "I'm Keria." feeling very...surrounded. She looked to the first man who approached her and thought that maybe...they were robbers!! But she decided not to over react and simply see how it went.

"Well...where are you going, Mr...horse guy?" Keria realized she didn't know any of their names, though she had revealed hers. "My town is the other way, which is why I'm going this way... But if nothing is this way, then I suppose..."

General OOC: Someone please keep count of how many cliches I commit, please. X'D

"Well, well my sweet" said Matej noticing her obvious discomfort. "No need to be shy. My name is Matej Kovar, of the Kovar family," he said, gesturing to the emblem on his suit. "KERIA.....a beautiful name for a beautiful woman."

"As for....'horse guy'....tsk tsk...I would have you know that you can never come on too strong to true love." He waved his index finger in the air as if scolding a child.

Keria smiled at Matej, still nervous and shy (since she had never even been looked at by guys in her village), and mumbled a weak, "Thank you," to his compliment to herself.

February 2nd, 2006, 10:01 PM
OOC: Nah, though try not to do it too much or the thread gets cluttered.

IC: Kaden laughed out loud at the two would-be suitors. "Ah, you are both completely lacking in subtlety. What's this about the town being wrecked, though? That's rather...troubling. By the way, do either of you know where this path leads?" He glanced to Keria, and noted that she looked a bit nervous. He took a deep bow, saying, "I've neglected to properly introduce myself; forgive me. I am Kaden Locke, Läroverk adept of life-magic."

Upon hearing the man's words, Matej immediately perked up. "Ohhhh! You're one of those Larry-things! My father was a Larry-person and kept telling me about the Larry-people when I was young." He extended a friendly hand to Kaden with a strange yet harmless grin. "Nice ta meecha."

OOC: I drew a sketch of my character, working on Kaden next...

Kaden stared at the man for a moment before shaking his hand. "Yes, now that you mention it I've heard something of your father. He's fairly famous among our order for his mastery of physical magics." Kaden laughed a little. "I sort of assumed you were from a different branch of the family."

February 3rd, 2006, 02:09 PM
Vetrix sat watching as a group of men, seemingly all desiring to speak to the young woman standing there, began chatting amongst one-another. Vetrix just let his head fall back against the tall, bright green grasses, letting his mind slip into the vastness of that great blue sky with just a few, small clouds hovering off in the distance. He had always watched things in a way others couldn't... with wonder...
More laughter filled his ears, his little void was shattered, but now, Vetrix was ready to see what they thought they were up to in the middle of the path just talking. Noone stops like this, not for a simple conversation, and he was ready to find out just what could bring such odd characters together. As he stood he stretched out his arms, Vetrix was an average height with a build slightly bulky but remaining slender at the same time. Letting his arms fall he drew back his cloak over his shoulders and strolled toward the travelers. The girl looked around like a trapped animal, and when she spotted him she appeared ready to panic. Vetrix's intentions were good, but he grew suspiscious of those others by the look on her face. His pace picked up with a sense of urgency.

cfioncn
February 3rd, 2006, 03:43 PM
About to respond to Kaden, he noticed yet another man drawing near.

"hou..." Matej looked over his shoulder. "Another man. Was the world population of women annihilated while I was walking down this road?" he mused only half-jokingly.

A bit tired from his "game" (which hadn't worked out as well as he had hoped) he took a few steps back and sat down. "They're all so shy these days.......completely different from my sister."

OOC: Only because it would fail. By the way, your character is MADE OF SEX

IC: Iruga tried to clarify things by saying "My name is Iruga, and you misunderstand me friend. I meant that it is not well governed, corrupt, and morally outraging. I had to leave my best horse behind, over some trivial nonsense. However, as I made my hasty departure, I think I might have seen a man throw a torch into a barn. I can only imagine how things went from there. I wasn't too worried at the time. However, seeing as how we're all intent upon talking, how about we take a small break from our troubles, sit down, and have some food?" Horribly aware that that was the first time he had spoken that much in a long time, Iruga pulled out his book to make sure there was no damage done, and led his horse off the road, making a concious effort not to look back and see if the others were following.

OOC: One last time ^^ My character is an avid reader.

Azrael
February 4th, 2006, 03:18 AM
Sensing dejection in the stranger's voice, Kaden could not help feel some sympathy for the man. In an eyeblink, he was in front of Iruga again. In a low voice he said, "It sounds as if you have been wronged, sir. I am in no hurry to get anywhere. Perhaps if we return,"--his eyes seemed briefly to take on their own light--"I may hold some sway with the townspeople. Tell me your troubles, then."

Shinra Soldier88
February 4th, 2006, 03:24 AM
Vetrix soon realised that this group was beginning to relax and began to slow down. Seeing them at ease was quite reassuring. Well, now as to what he was gonna do. Ask for directions.

"Uh, excuse me," Vetrix said with a little hesitance," but can any of you point me out to the next outpost..." Now noticing that someone else had joined this little convention of misfits, a few turned their heads to respond. The young woman was the first.

"And you might be?" she asked simply, squinting up at Vetrix to get a better look at him.

"Vetrix, uh, Vetrix Orstess," Vetrix replied in a very non-formal statement.

Wolflord
February 4th, 2006, 03:27 AM
Iruga was touched. Strangers rarely showed him this kind of compassion. He was also curious of this technique the man used, and frightened of the man. Before he had felt safe that his 6 feet and his swordsmanship made him the most competent one of them all, but this was new. "My troubles?" He asked. "You want to hear of my troubles? Alright, then let me tell you of my father first. He was a great man, not that I knew him. Before I was even born he killed my mother. She was in labour with me. It was a miracle I survived. All he said was "I have ensured the safety of my son." and that's the last thing he ever said. I was raised by the town, but I was never really loved. I left, and now I wander. That's just a drop in the ocean friend, but let me tell you what happened at that town. I rode in, paid for my room for the next couple days to rest. Late on the second evening, I heard a screaming. I moved out, and I heard one of the tavern maids saying "that man tried to rape me! He cornered me in the barn, struck me, and then..." And other such nonsense. I had of course never touched her in my life. At that moment they noticed me, and they attacked me." Iruga suddenly felt tired of his charade, and came clean with this young man. "I'm not a brave man. I admit that I'm a foolish coward, and I fled. I stole this from a farm, and escaped just in time. The barn was put to the torch. I lost my horse, and the man who did it was hung. I don't think there will be any reasoning for them."

cfioncn
February 4th, 2006, 03:48 AM
"Ohou....looks like you've seen your fair share" Matej commented, not moving his gaze from the dirt at his feet.

"And you there. Wetrix. Ehm. Vetrix. Take this." He procured a spare map from his backpack and offered it to Vetrix with another puzzling grin.

Without changing his expression, he turned his head toward Kaden. Or at least attempted to. Giving up, he finally laid down completely on the ground with an exasperated expression. "Oi. Moth boy. If you don't stop zippin' around..."

February 4th, 2006, 11:10 AM
Keria concluded that these guys weren't harmful and just really nice. [[XD]] "Alright, I took a break a while ago but I wouldn't mind getting to know you people." she said, and followed Iruga off the path. She sat herself down a bit further away from all of them.
As Kaden seem to zoom up to Iruga, she was a bit shocked. Then ANOTHER man joined them! She hoped these people were all nice and she could follow at least one for some company..

She couldn't see the newest member very well and squinted up to him while she asked his name.

"That's a weird name.." she said. "Oh!! Um, sorry. I didn't mean to say that outloud." She watched the guys talk of things and learned about the different places... and learned that not every town was as nice as hers.

[[ummmmmm vetrix guy :O I don't mind if you do some little stuff like that but if ya play my char like that don't do too much XD keep it at little stuff like you did :D tyty XD it's so hard to catch up to all you peoples :D glad you're posting tho]]

Iruga says very little during their break, mostly listening, but pitching in when he wants to. Mostly, his eyes were on Kaden. He distrusts those who practice magic, and decided Kaden was a threat.
Naturally, he spent most of the break gauging the threats of all of them. He reserved judgement on Keira, determind that Matej was nothing more than a pretty boy, and that Vetrix should also be watched. He doesn't know if they're gonna group together, or if they're gonna go their seperate ways. Either way, he's suddenly afraid of something.

Azrael
February 4th, 2006, 02:39 PM
Kaden spent a little while looking over the map of the area. Having started from Ashford going East, he figured that they were between Heathwood and Cavan, and a bit further Southwest from the city of Amnoon. "What is the name of the town you came from?" he inquired of Keria.

Holliness
February 4th, 2006, 02:46 PM
"Umm..Caratji," [[w/e]] she replied to Kaden. She was getting more familiar and relaxed around the group, but still didn't wholly trust them. So far, she had taken the most liking to Iruga, since she knew most about him and judged him to be a trustworthy man. [[lolz cfi got dizzed]]

Azrael
February 4th, 2006, 03:09 PM
Kaden studied the map a bit more. "Ah, so Heathwood is that town nearby." He glanced over to Iruga, who was eyeing him suspiciously. "How far have you come from there, do you think? Perhaps we can make it by nightfall."

Wolflord
February 4th, 2006, 04:48 PM
"I left late last night. Seeing as how nobody is mounted, a better estimate would be tomorrow evening. However, I already said that they will kill me on sight, and anyone with me. Your magic may be strong, but can it overcome 300 angry farmers? You would be foolish to even try. I say we go to Amnoon or Cavan. Maybe 2 days journey will see us there, and it will be to a much better welcome."

"Well...even if we went somewhere, do you all have enough food? I've got some but I doubt it will be able to feed everyone here...um, assuming everyone is coming along...?" She asked.

cfioncn
February 4th, 2006, 07:25 PM
Eyes still closed, Matej let out a sigh. "I'm being ignored and trampled" He reached inside his backpack and started chewing some beef jerky [[hell ya XD]].

"I'll join you but would prefer hanging back a bit. That's too much testosterone in one place.....sure beats being by myself." He finished his jerky and brushed his clothes off.

He quickly flipped onto his feet, and having done some observations of his own, moved behind Iruga and in a friendly voice added some wisdom "Don't cry, emo man. If you spend your life suspicious and sad you won't enjoy it very much and it will start seeming to yourself that you would've been better off unborn."

Azrael
February 4th, 2006, 11:57 PM
Kaden weighed the options. "I could probably put a good fright into those farmers, but it sounds like we'd be hard pressed to defend ourselves if they got brave." He turned his head to Keria. "If we travel elsewhere...I have nothing to ease the feeling of hunger, but it's no real problem staving off its effects."

He sat for a second and suddenly laughed, realizing his unintentional pun.

Wolflord
February 5th, 2006, 06:06 PM
Iruga shot Matej a grin and said "There's just enough testosterone here to balance the massive amounts of estrogen radiating forth from you. As for the farmer situation, I'm sure you're capable of dealing with them, but do you want to? That's the first step down the path to corruption." He examined the map for a minute and said "I have plenty of food, but if we're in a pinch.... Matej could offer up a leg or two, I'm sure he wouldn't mind."

cfioncn
February 5th, 2006, 09:59 PM
Seeing that Iruga wasn't as boring as he thought, he grinned back and played along, throwing his head back and running a hand through his hair.

[[cue cheap sfx sparkles]]

"Don't hate me because i'm beautiful." [[I better get big points for this one XD]]

"As for food...I didn't pack enough real meals for such a large amount of people but we can tide our hunger with some beef jerky." He procured several paper-wrapped sticks of meat from his backpack.

Wolflord
February 5th, 2006, 10:16 PM
Iruga, who couldn't resist, grinned once more and said "That's not why I hate you." He looked at the beef jerky, and figured that eating it would kill a bear. "No thanks." He said, "I think I'll stick to my own food."

Azrael
February 6th, 2006, 04:44 AM
Kaden looked over at Iruga, puzzled and a little annoyed. "Corruption? I think you misunderstand me. I would not do real harm to one man for a stranger's horse, let alone three hundred." He was quickly distracted, however, by the smell of jerky. He smiled brightly at Matej. "Ah, there is no food quite so well suited to the road as beef jerky."

Holliness
February 6th, 2006, 06:36 PM
"Um, well I guess I'll follow you wherever you decide to go." She said, feeling more friendly with all the guys. She felt a bit outspoken because she couldn't quite think of anything to say at the time, but knew that as the group came to know each other better, she would feel more comfortable with all of them and speak up more.

"So, which way are we going? To the town with the angry people, or the opposite direction?" She asked no one in particular.

Keria was a bit confused as to why they all introduced themselves to her as if they were trying to lure her into their man-traps and quickly forgot, but since they were different than the people from her village, she thought that maybe it was the normal thing to do...

Iruga shrugged and said "my vote goes to opposite direction, naturally."

OOC: Holliness, we haven't made a decision because you (as the creator) was supposed to have an idea and kind of direct it ><

[[ :P well my char is kinda indesicive but i guess we should go back to the village iruga was kicked out of :)! I want you guys to go ahead and make decisions too, thouh :) don't want to control you guys too much :P koz yea,,,

Kaden looked down the path a long while, as if staring hard enough might let him see something of what lay ahead. After a minute he spoke up. "I go wherever I can be of use. I have heard there is a shortage of healers in Amnoon, but no news has come to me of Cavan. They may have need of my skills as well. Alternatively," said he, and here a smile crossed his face, "I enjoy a bit of excitement on occasion. It's true that fighting would be undesirable, but then, there are other ways to go about retrieving your horse."

Iruga shrugged and said "I'm up for it. If you manage to get back my destrier, I'll make this dogfood horse a gift to you, and you'll be in my debt."

Keria stood up, seeing they had come to a decision. "In case we will need it for some reason, I'm good at dancing and acting," she said, shrugging about what kind of situation would require that.

"So, let's get walking?" She asked no one in particular. Without waiting for a reply, she lead the way down the road, continuing the way she was going in the first place.

Azrael
February 7th, 2006, 07:03 PM
Kaden picked up his staff and followed. "You could act interested in the stable hand, maybe."

Wolflord
February 7th, 2006, 08:56 PM
Iruga mounted his horse and kicked it into a canter until he caught up. "You could act interested in Matej, might shut him up. Either way, I think I'd rather go unnoticed."

Holliness
February 8th, 2006, 12:05 AM
Keria grinned at Iruga's comment. "I thought about what you would do... Going unnoticed is best, but we would probably have to bring you into the town somehow. If you stayed outside of the town and waited for us, we wouldn't know which horse is yours... unless it has a star on it's nose or something." She grinned, amused at the idea. "So you could disguise yourself somehow? Maybe wear a cloak with a hood and hide your face..or if you have a better idea then something else might work. What do you say?" [[where is the shinra guy? :( ]]

Matej, who had been silently following them GRACEFULLY having Iruga's jabs glance off him the whole time. But upon hearing Iruga's last words, he started jabbing at Iruga's legs with his piece of jerky, having decided if Iruga wished to continue the game, that he would comply.

"I'll have you know that I am not a customer to false love." He tosses his hair back with a movement of his neck, sparkles ensue.
"You cannot simply 'fake' the onslaught of true love!"

He closes his eyes and smiles.

"But you, who rides comfortably atop his horse when there's a lady present and walking with her own feet, would not know of such things, would you?"

OOC: sorry but Ii have been watching the posts and this is really going nowhere... real sorry, but i don't think i'll continue... It's not bad but it's like its moving nowhere, kinda like DragonBall Z, just doesn't move... I will continue to read it though.

Wolflord
February 8th, 2006, 04:46 PM
Iruga laughed and said "You're right Matej, where are my manners? I should let you ride, but I think your ego would collapse my horse." Turning to Keria he said "He's right though, if you want to ride, my horse is yours. I would have said so sooner, but I have been away from gentle company for too long. I have an extra cloak to wear, I'll keep myself disguised, worry not."

*and suddenly, Vetrix disappears into thin air*

OOC: Shoot Wolflord, you're giving me one hell of a time XD

Azrael
February 8th, 2006, 11:31 PM
OOC: I think Vetrix decided to continue frolicking in the grass, rather than come along with us.

IC: "So, getting your horse back," Kaden interjected hastily. "There are a couple of ways we could go about this. In any case it'll be a lot easier if you have some idea of where they might have taken it." He looked questioningly at Iruga.

Wolflord
February 9th, 2006, 03:56 PM
"Glue factory?" Iruga said innocently. "Seriously though, it might have been taken to the mayor's stables, it might have been given to the girl in question, or it might become the property of the inn."

OOC: ;) Thanks CFI, I have my witty moments =p

Azrael
February 9th, 2006, 06:47 PM
OOC: You know, I just realized how gullible our characters are. X'D

IC: Presently a thought crossed Kaden's mind that he had not yet considered: that this woeful stranger might simply be a petty criminal, that he may indeed have tried to rape the barmaid, and was petitioning strangers to help him steal a horse better than his own. Taking great pains to mask the suspicion in his face and tone, he said, "I think it would be best if I went to the tavern and asked around, perhaps mentioning that I had seen you on the path to the South. That way I might misdirect them as to your whereabouts and inquire as to those of your horse, in a single exchange." He thought a moment more and added, "Perhaps Keria should come in as well. It doesn't sound like they take kindly to lone strangers."

NOOOOO but it IS going somewhere ::dies melts burns through the floor like acid::]]

"Um, it's okay. I don't mind walking. Thank you though." Keria smiled brightly at him. "I wouldn't mind going with you..umm.... It was Kaden, right?" She asked, not sure about his name quite yet. She herself was trusting enough, and had already accepted all of them as a big happy family. "By the way..how did you get that horse if they stole yours?" She questioned Iruga...

[[small post lol :P

plot ideas LETS THINK OF SOME XD:
in the town everyone can be like LOMG SORRY :'( WE R BEING CONTROLLED BY AN EVAL WIZURD, PLZ SAVE UZ; or something like that?? where the villagers now want their help? :P umm or..
if you want to bring that other guy in who's name is something pimp like slasher or somethin (kaden has been tryin to get him in here?), he could be a bad guy? :P either that or want to hire them or something... my ideas are simple.

anyone got something else??]]

OOC: X'D I tried to recruit Strider early on, but I don't get the feeling he's interested. Perhaps GRX, but be prepared for something Soviet-themed if he joins. I'm thinking if you want to have an "evil wizard" involved, it should be something more insidious. Like, maybe we find out the lady has the horse, go to her house, and find glyphs and crazy-talk all over her walls, and her behavior has been getting progressively more aberrant (under the influence of Mr. Big and Evil)? In that case I'd probably port us back to ask the Larry-people about it, and thus we'd start on the whole big long quest type of deal, etc.

[[Slime is Defeated!! Dunh dunh dunh dahhh dahhh dah dah-dah-dahhhh!]]

Noticing Kaden's discomfort, he moved next to him and handed him folded piece of paper.

"Just because our map man decided to continue dancing with the daisies back there doesn't mean you have to be so depressed. Here, you can have your very own map" he said with a smile.

Wolflord
February 9th, 2006, 10:38 PM
Iruga, ready for the question, said "Well, about 4 or 5 hours up ahead, there will be a messenger who took a fall. His neck was broken, and if anyone is a tracker, it will show that the horse skidded in the mud, and the man fell off. I didn't want his horse to go to waste. However, I grabbed his message case, and I was planning to deliver the message." He produced the case with a flourish and said "Well, I hope this quells any doubts about me, if you heat up the wax, you can move it without breaking the seal, if you want to read it. I haven't had time."

Azrael
February 9th, 2006, 11:14 PM
Kaden took the map, and thanked Matej. Then, remembering the man's reaction to his magic earlier, he teleported directly beside Iruga.

He spoke in a low, careful voice, this time making no effort to hide his concern. "I thought you stole this horse from a farm, friend."

Wolflord
February 9th, 2006, 11:31 PM
Iruga, startled by the magic, said "If you will trust me enough for today, I will give you the full story when we break camp. It is a long one, and a sad one."

cfioncn
February 10th, 2006, 12:30 AM
"Oh boy. I'm getting the sniffles already." Matej muttered under his breath. "A trip is not complete without people getting sad."

He turned to Kaden "Don't you have some sort of like Lasso of Truth spell or something, Kaden? We could all be comfortable that way."

Azrael
February 10th, 2006, 12:58 AM
Kaden sighed. "Our order does not deal in tricks of the mind. I have no such spells." He looked over at Matej, a little surprised. "Your father doesn't talk much about his work, huh?"

Wolflord
February 10th, 2006, 03:47 PM
"I said leave it alone until we break camp. Then you can make your decisions about my strength of character or lack of it." Iruga said sharply, making it clear the conversation was over. For the next couple hours, the journey passed in silence.

OOC: You know, your character's amazingly pushy for someone who just joined a band of strangers with nothing going for him over then next guy. (Not trying to sound like an ass, just making an observation)

The sky was getting darker and she was feeling bored. "How long has it been?" she asked, not expecting an answer. [[they should find the dead guy he was talkin abt :P]] Her stomach grumbled lightly, but she didn't complain about it.

OOC: Sorry, me and cfi have been playing GW obsessively for the past couple days (he just got it). Haven't done much checking of websites. ^_^; It would help if we actually started posting non-OOC comments though.

IC: Kaden considered a moment, trying to remember the sky when they met. "'Bout five hours." He looked around idly for a hard patch of ground, some break in the grasses. "We should set up camp soon, I imagine."

Wolflord
February 14th, 2006, 09:18 PM
Iruga sighed, waiting for the inevitable. "Let's wait another hour." He said, "It's not that dark."

Matej, who was idly staring off into the horizon, chewing beef jerky, began to spot something off behind a tree a ways off the road. After a bit of wondering, he decided to bring it to the attention of the others.

"Hey, what's that behind you?"
