You’re good, lots of people are posting long sections. ;] No one minds at all, it helps to move things forward.

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Group 1)

So many enemies still stood firm. But there was still hope to win, as long as everyone worked together.

Marcel took quick…[Read more]

@raxforge

MY GOOD SIR WHAT HAVE YOU DONE

Hilarious, I must say, and I think we boys have too many similarities in our stories

@raxforge

Oh my gosh. I’m sure Tim never did that. At least, I hope he wouldn’t. His poor grandfather. So, what that how he got his scar? Or was it really in the war?

@raxforge

……

Ouch.

Marcellus — Elderstrand | with Group 1

Marcellus stood stunned by what he saw. Large enemies were all around, attacking and moving around without taking much damage. They were tall. Covered in metal armor. And all the others were struggling against them. He needed to h…[Read more]

@everyone

@raxforge has a play he’s performing today. He meant to post his story for you guys to read last night, but I guess he forgot. He already sent me his short story by email, so he is in this entry, you’ll have to wait until I get permission from him to post it or he posts it himself to read his story. Just fyi.

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

How tall are they?

@whalekeeper @loopylin @hybridlore @rae @raxforge @grcr

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]

Ellis — Elderstrand (Group 1)

Ellis slashed at one of the armored warriors, scoring the armor with a dark scorch mark, resisting more than it should have. His enemy swung a heavy fist at his head, and he ducked past it. A second opponent’s fist came out of nowhere,…[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]

@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.

@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.)

@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]

@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]
