Kari
As chaos ensued, Kari drew her sword. She knew she’d probably have to use it at some point, but now, in the heat of the moment, she wondered if she would be good enough to stay alive. Minimal practice had given her the ability to defend herself better than before, but she had been hoping she wouldn’t have to put her skills to the test.
Kari saw a horse, probably Marcurious, galloping away with Hugo and Ottoline, and she wondered if perhaps she should join them. If she stayed where the thick of the fighting was, she’d probably wind up dead. Turning to her elk, Rainier, she was about to climb on his back, but then she noticed the two siblings nearby, the brother tied up in spider’s silk. More silk was flying their way.
You’re not going to leave them stuck like that, Kari, she told herself. She patted Rainier on the neck and whispered, “Stay out of the way, okay?” Running over to Carrie and Silas, she used her sword to slice through the webs flying through the air. If she couldn’t stab someone with a sword, at least it was good for this much.
“I’ve got your backs!” Kari called out. “Carrie, focus on using those arms of yours! I’ll try to deflect the webs!”

December 23, 2023 at 5:21 pm #170904Are you going to RP for Zahlin and/or Vethe? (I think one of @calyhuge’s characters is going to mistakenly free Vethe.)

📚 Appreciator of BooksDecember 23, 2023 at 5:34 pm #170905Yeah, my brain has been kind of dead on inspiration lately :p I’ll get around to it soon
hopefully.Any noun can become a verb if you don't care enough.

“Thanks Kari.” I called, sending a hand zipping toward Jeptune again, it hit her with a clank, the other hand grabbed her once again.
I jerked the controller stick up and down quickly, the hand lifted her up then slammed her down on the forest floor at another ridiculous pace.
“Sorry, sorry…” I said quietly, not stopping, I mean, I kind of felt sorry. The hand kept going, I pushed a button that held the motion on repeat, waiting for her to become unconscious.

December 23, 2023 at 6:25 pm #170915I intended to put that the keyword was definitely “kind of”, cause she really didn’t feel bad. It wouldn’t let me fix it.

Snake
The stone-holding dragon was still on his tail, spitting that dangerous venom. Snake’s wing and shoulder started to ache where he’d been slashed…and he’d forgotten about that lizard thing’s bite wound. It had no lasting effects from whatever poison it’d used on him, but still stung.
He fiddled with the healing armband in the air, trying to reconfigure it better for himself, and clapped it quickly onto his wrist as the dragon swooped at him again, mouth open to bite. He blasted ice at it as he felt his strength slowly being restored. The claw and bite marks, plus a few minor burns he’d sustained in the fire a while back, started to disappear.
Meanwhile, the dragon’s mouth had been frozen shut by his icebreath. It gave a muffled, angry roar, shaking its head and clawing at its face.
It’d have a nasty case of frostbite later…
He decided to give it a taste of its own medicine and body-slammed right into it, knocking it to the side, and as an added measure whipped it with his long, thin, spiked tail.
Maybe that was a bit much, especially considering it couldn’t use it own weapon on him…?
Nah.
The two grappled in the sky for a few minutes. It was still stronger than he was (even though he had the strength-boost from that bracelet), but at least it wasn’t attacking anyone else.
With a final blow to its body, the stone came off. The dragon roared, bashing its frosted-over snout against his head and shattering the slowly melting ice, then dove for the falling, glowing gem.
Ouch.
He shook off the pain and followed it.
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.

Aa Kate looked up at the Snake and the other dragon, thinking about how to get the dragons close enough, the green stone dropped.
Kate ran towards it as it fell, both dragons diving for it. As it neared the ground, she swung the Arclash. It whipped the stone out of the way of the dragon’s snatching claws. The stone glimmered as it flew away. The dragon roared in annoyance as it straightened out of its dive and shot acid at Kate.
She rolled out of the way as the dragon passed overhead. She lashed her red whip up and it coiled around the dragon’s leg. At the same time, she anchored it to a large nearby tree. Her end of the Arclash zipped from her hand to the tree. It seemed to come straight out of it.
As the rope went taut, the dragon was brought to a jolting halt, and the tree was wrenched partially out of the ground but held…barely.

@everyone I’m taking a break for a while from the RP. Let’s just say the General chased all my characters away for now, and I’ll bring them back in when I come back. See y’all soon!
December 28, 2023 at 2:48 pm #171405Idk when I logged on I immediately thought it’s been like three days since anyone’s posted and that the RP is dying. 😑 Nope. Just been a day.

December 28, 2023 at 2:48 pm #171406WAIT. It’s technically been two… kinda

December 28, 2023 at 6:38 pm #171439I have like…nothing to rp. Wait…
Do you think Tren would let Carrie get attacked and do nothing?!
Jeptune
Oh, she hated being knocked around. She shape shifted, her form becoming a snake with purple eyes and orange spots. Slipping free and shifting again into a slyiad, she readied for a charge, but as her body began going into motion, and arrow zipped by her ear. She turned, seeing Tren, his pale face and hair like a ghost in the night. A longbow was in his hand.
“Leave them alone. Return to the forest, before I kill you.” Jeptune laughed, casting a web as Tren. He sidestepped it, letting it fall harmlessly to the ground. He knocked an arrow.
“Last chance.” Jeptune growled, and retreated into the woods. She had had enough.

December 28, 2023 at 6:46 pm #171440Ellis
As Ellis was running forward, the stone came flying towards him, knocked away by Kate.
He lunged for it as it flew by. His fingers grazed it, interrupting its flight, but failed to catch it. Ellis hit the ground and rolled towards where it landed.
Just then, something crashed into him. It was Zash again. How could he recover from a stab wound so quickly?
Zash bent to grab the stone, but Ellis leapt to his feet and slashed his blade into Zash’s face. It deflected off the metal plate on Zash’s head but sent him reeling.
Ellis reached for the stone again, but three knives came zipping towards him, forcing him to sidestep. Another knife scooped the stone into the air and Zash tried to grab it. But Ellis spun forward and struck it with his foot, sending it spinning away again.

📚 Appreciator of BooksDecember 28, 2023 at 7:04 pm #171443Nahim
Nahim looked around him, looking for those who needed help the most. He pressed his fingers to his side, and red liquid flowed over them. He winced, and his vision blurred, but he wanted to keep going. He saw Fennin, and Nora, fighting some black cloak floating around with eyes and a couple soldiers ( @calyhuge you can rp that part when you return. And, much of Fennin including his boots are now wet) Nahim was going to rush to help, but Fennin bade him not.
“The Stone, Nahim! Get the Stone with Ellis!” He screamed over the din of battle. Nahim looked around, before seeing a of glint of green, and a flash of flying silver. Ellis’s blonde hair was easy for him to see in the night. He was spinning forward, striking the green stone so that it twas tossed into the air. It landed in a group of leaves as Ellis fought the knife-thrower. Nahim ran for it, ignoring the blood coming from his side. Sliding past Ellis, he groped for the green glow, but a blade was coming for him. He dodged it, moving away from the stone. Zash kicked Ellis, and also groped for the stone, and his fingers clasped around it in victory. It tingled in his fingertips. But a human body bombarded into Zash, sending the stone flying.
“Grab it, Ellis!” Nahim called out, as he tried to restrain Zash and avoid the knives coming his way.
I took some liberties, please tell me if I did something wrong as usual.
"You need French Toast."
December 28, 2023 at 7:38 pm #171450Ellis
Ellis scrambled to his feet and grabbed the green stone off of the ground as Nahim tried to restrain Zash.
Ellus hesitated, not wanting to leave Nahim to fight alone, but then turned and ran. He had to get the stone to Fennin.
Zash
Zash managed to get some of his knives under the armored warrior pinning him down. With a heave, the knives flipped him off and Zash rolled away.
The other warrior, Ellis, was escaping with the stone. Zash planted knives in the ground and launched himself in pursuit.
Ellis
Ellus ducked as Conviction shouted a warning. Zash barreled overhead, landing in front of him.
He was almost there, but Zash barred his way.
Ellis threw the stone towards Fennin. Zash grasped for it above his head, but missed.
“Fennin!” Ellis shouted. “The stone!”
