Cloaked Mystery

@loopylin

I think I’ll add another character after the fight is over, if that’s alright. Or guess technically two characters. One and a half? I should go back and check how many character slots we’re allowed.

There are currently 16 characters total, which means that the limit per person is currently 4.

@raxforge

There are actually biological creatures inside the armor. Marcel’s exclamation that they are made of iron was in erroneous as he later discovered, though I see how when he later said that they “aren’t solid” it could have been misinterpreted as saying they are hollow. What he really meant (I assume) is that they aren’t solid metal (i.e.…[Read more]

@raxforge

Suddenly, one of the knights (am I getting this right?)

Basically. If you missed it when I introduced them earlier, these are called Ironwalkers. They are humanoid creatures clad entirely in armor. Their helmets have a completely smooth front with no eye holes or any other facial features. (Because they don’t have eyes.) They also don’t…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

So thats a semi yes!? Yay! Ok I have a creature idea for the Deewater! It is a serpent like creature, it stalks under boats and attacks when least expected. since I imagine the waters are “deep” (crazy right!) I imagine it lives deep in the waters, so little is known about it. And it rarely comes up. But when it does it att…

@whalekeeper

I mean, they’re technically just NPCs, so yes, (though I would recommend using them sparingly.) In this case, I happen to agree with @rae‘s assessment and will be deploying them anyway, lol.

Within a few seconds, the fight was…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Sorry, my rp left off no where. 😅

Oh, I’m not waiting on you or anything. If you hadn’t seen, the group with Ilahna, Klethen, and Everett is next to the river, downstream from the ship, so I’m more so waiting for something to happen with that group before I RP Rina again.

1. What creatures are in this world? And can we make up…

@ellette-giselle @rae @raxforge @whalekeeper @grcr @hybridlore @loopylin

(Seeing how long these group names are getting, I’m just going to start calling this group “group one”.)

Ellis — Elderstrand (Group 1)

Ellis turned and was surprised to find another group of people. Marcel was talking to one of the strangers, who it appeared were just as…[Read more]

Ilahna ——— Elderstrand (w/ Klethen & Everett)

Ilahna screeched to a halt, as she suddenly found a river barring their way. Her feet skidded on the wet ground, and she narrowly saved herself from falling in by humming a quick series of notes to push herself back.

She looked over her shoulder and saw the facel…[Read more]

@grcr

lol.

A lot of people were doing that. Even I did at least once, even though I was the one who named it in the first place!

@the_lost-journal

Rina —— Elderstrand (river) (w/Jirah & Rosemary)

At that moment, an arrow whizzed by Rina’s head. She spun and saw a group of guards on the opposite bank with bows trained on the floating platform [btw, I should have clarified earlier that this is a ship rather than a raft. Rina simply has no experience with either].

Rina…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

I had mentioned combining Ilahna, Klethen, and Everett’s group with ours. I think the other two groups are a bit further away (although all the groups will meet up at some point.)

@hybridlore

We were talking about joining our group with @rae @raxforge @grcr and @ellette-giselle‘s group (Baron, Ben, Flare, Marcellus, Julian, and Leon.) That’s kind of a lot, but I don’t expect this section of the RP to be all that much longer anyway.

@the_lost-journal

Rina —— Elderstrand (river)

The group came to a halt at the edge of a flowing body of water. It was a few hundred feet to the buildings on the opposite side. “This way!” Fleet shouted, running along the river to the right. “The dock is this way!”

They continued to run. Rina could no longer hear the Ironwalkers, but the…[Read more]

@highscribeofaetherium @beth-torres

Ilahna —— Elderstrand (w/ Klethen and Everett)

Ilahna ran blindly, following Klethen’s form in the dark ahead. She couldn’t manage a song while running, so she had no way to sense if anyone was nearby.

She could tell by sound, however, that the armored creatures were still behind…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

(I wasn’t sure if your characters ended up following or not, so I just avoided mentioning it either way.)

Rina —— Elderstrand

“Where…are we going?” Rina panted as the group ran on.

“The city is being locked down,” Fleet responded. “We won’t be able to get through any of the gates. So, we’re heading for the river. We…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @loopylin @hybridlore

Ellis —— Elderstrand (w/ Marcel, Felicity, Sara)

Ellis nodded. “Let’s go. Quick!”

The group slipped into the alley and waited in silence as the soldiers neared the street.

“Spread out!” someone shouted. “They must be here somewhere.”

Ellis gripped his sword tight, prepared to silence the first person who…[Read more]

and @grcr, oops!

@whalekeeper @loopylin @hybridlore

Ellis —— Elderstrand (w/ Marcel, Felicity, and Sara)

“I don’t like this place,” Ellis muttered. “Where do we go now?”

Just then, there was a sound of shouting. Ellis turned and saw soldiers scurrying along the wall above. They were trapped.

There was the sound of a patrol coming down a street to the…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @loopylin @hybridlore

Ellis ——— Elderstrand (outside)

As Marcel spoke, there was a crashbof thunder, and water came pouring down.

”I don’t,” said Ellis. “But I think we’ll be better off inside anyway.”

@whalekeeper

Sure thing. Gimme a minute.
