Cloaked Mystery

@jonas

We can also do that, but it’s a lot of people to tag 😅

@loopylin @jonas @whalekeeper @grcr @ellette-giselle @rae @the_lost-journal

Can we maybe just all subscribe to the topic so we don’t have to tag so many people every time?

Sara — Elderstrand w/ Group 1

Felicity scowled and stumbled back into the fray, her gaze set on one of the big machines.

Sara shook her head to clear it. What had been all…[Read more]

@jonas

Perfecto! Okay, thanks!

Felicity- Group 1, Elderstrand

“What are these things?”

Felicity furrowed her brow. “I thought at first they might be clickmen, but they’re silent, no machinery. But they aren’t ink animated, either, probably, because there was something inside. They definitely aren’t peopl…[Read more]

Baron (Brutus)—Group 1, Elderstrand edge

Leon crumpled, loosing consciousness. The feather boy had a hurt hand, the girl with hair almost like his own had been flung into a building. Flare was too tired to play anymore. And there were still at least eight more enemies…[Read more]

@jonas

Um two questions.

First, how fast are they? You said they weren’t really mobile…  so is charging kinda out of the picture? And second, is it okay if Marcellus has his pistol?

@jonas

How tall are they?

leon and Julian — Elderstrand (Group 1)

Leon stood and watched the way Ellis fought, trying to gauge the weakness in the creature. Thing. Knight. Whatever it was.

He didn’t have long to stand there. One of the things was coming for him.

Leon ducked a blow a…[Read more]

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Group 1)

Marcel stumbled over to Sara and Felicity to fetch his staff. He held it in the crook of his bad arm and punched their shoulders with his other hand. “Nice job.”

They shared smiles for a split second. Marcel ran back into the fray. His hand…[Read more]

@jonas @whalekeeper 👍

*2 and 1/2 down

@jonas

I think Marcel’s is dead; either we can say the feathers muffled it to death, or tearing off the iron kills the ironwalker because its body is sealed to the armor. This sounds rather morbid, now that I write it.

@jonas ok cool thx

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

3 Ironwalkers down, 9 to go, if anyone was wondering. Pretty sure there were originally a dozen.

I’ll hold off on having Felicity fight anymore.

@loopylin @jonas @rae @grcr @ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Sara — Elderstrand, w/ Group 1

Sara flinched as one of the machines threw the tall girl with white-blond hair against a building. Her head lolled to the side for a moment and then snapped up as the robot started walking toward her.

Sara steeled herself and rushed out from the alley. F…[Read more]

@jonas I was imagining the Ironwalkers as just enchanted suits of armor before. The fact that there’s something inside but they still don’t make any noise makes them a lot scarier.

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

Felicity- Group 1, Edge of Elderstrand

Felicity took the staff gratefully. Her knuckles were raw and…[Read more]

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

Sorry y’all, I might not be very active on the RP for the next week because I have a debate coming up, so feel free to toss Sara around wherever she needs to be.

Sara — Elderstrand, w/ Group 1

Silver music appeared in Sara’s vision as one of the strangers began playing on some…[Read more]

@raxforge @jonas

Yes. When he said “not solid,” he meant the creatures aren’t made of magically fluid iron that is completely solid throughout. They at least have separate iron plates and pieces. He ripped off at least their outer layer, and whatever is inside is yet to be discovered. (That would be Jonas’ decision.)

@jonas

They are hollow inside, right?

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

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/ Group 1)

The chunky creatures loomed over them, casting shadows over the soaked ground. They walked without sight or feeling, without head movement.

Someone cried out. It was the man with wind powers. He cradled his hand, and when the other young men…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle My character doesn’t even have military training. She’s just… very determined.
@grcr @raxforge @whalekeeper @jonas @rae

Felicity— Group 1, Edge of Elderstrand

“Clickmen.” Felicity shuddered at the sound of metal footsteps. It was clear as they got closer that they were not the machines Felicity was used to, but she didn’t care…[Read more]

@rae

Don’t look at me.

My guys are just normal people with some military training.

@whalekeeper @grcr @raxforge @loopylin @jonas

Leon and Julian —Group 1, Elderstrand edge

Julian looked up and his eyes widened. He yanked Leon back. “Look out!”

Leon spun, gripping his sword tightly. His eyes and mouth opened in shock. “What are t…[Read more]
