R.I.P LVD. Gone, but not forgotten. I will treasure the memories we had always, as well as the friends you allowed me to meet...
Level 5 With the two orcs defeated, Samuel shot a quick glance at <Seth's Angel> and saw that things weren't going as smoothly as they could've been going for his young comrade. She seemed to be learning how to use her attacks to an extent, but her accuracy...well, calling her accurate might be a bit of stretch. "Alexander, hold them off for a little. If you need help, I'll come over and do it" he instructed. He then hurried over to her side and peered over her shoulder. "Hmmm, I think I see what your issue is. For starts you want to read the incantation quickly, not slowly. The more you think about it, the more complex it seems. Just take a glance and read it out. The bottom one you've got there is a pretty interesting skill, you could always give that a try. Other than that, try aiming your bow a little higher. Arrows have drop on them, so as they fly further they'll slowly drop down and make your shots a little less accurate. Aside from that...maybe try taking your time a little more with the shots. Go on and give it a try" Samuel instructed, watching carefully to make sure she didn't screw it up. Level 2...and a half Once Bryce and Emma had gotten to Tessa, Emma noticed the goblins trying to get up to the top of the tower. Ascending the stairs that I'm assuming were there, she stopped by her side and reloaded her shotgun. "I bet I can take out more of these things than you" she said, setting a friendly challenge as determination set in her eyes. She turned and simply dove out of the tower window, tumbling as she landed on the ground. "Bryce, was it? How long have you been playing VRMMOs for?" she asked, making casual conversation as she shot a full blast into one of the goblins in front of her, turning it into pixels with a second shot shortly after. There was one.
I will join this RP and slay ALL the monsters!
For the last five minutes, Hunter had stood still in a frozen state of shock and fury. That guy. Like who the hell did he think he was? You can't just insult a man's manhood and get away with it, especially when he was just promoted to the boss temporarily. Hunter thought about his words though, surprisingly. What if he was right? What if...what if he wasn't full of it? Hunter drew upon the memories of him taking a shower, the memories of him standing before a mirror and thinking 'damn I look fine tonight', and dismissed the idea that Aedion had a brain almost immediately. He then did the only other thing he could think of. He formulated a plan. Hunter nodded as though he'd listened to everything. "Good plan, good plan. I agree entirely. Lets get this party started" he said, before racing off after Aedion. He found him nearby Ana. Of course he was near Ana. Was Hunter a little jealous? Hell no, not even a little bit. He just...it was improper conduct. Yeah, that's what it was. It was harrassment! And if anyone knew harrassment, it was Hunter! So racing in front of both Aedion and Ana, he then dropped his sword on the ground. "Ana, for your own sake I suggest you close your eyes for about ten seconds. I'll give you three seconds to do that" he advised, barely able to believe he'd just said that. He waited three seconds, and then he undid the belt around his waist and let his pants fall down. He wasn't wearing any underwear of course, he liked to go full man mode twenty four hours a day. "DOES THIS LOOK MINISCULE TO YOU YOU SON OF A WHORE?!" he exclaimed, releasing all of his pent up anger in that one moment. And for all those who are curious, it was most certainly not miniscule. He then pulled up his pants and fixed up his belt, before glancing at Ana. He wasn't sure if she'd looked or not, but it didn't really matter. The fact her mind was still intact was probably a sign she hadn't looked. Any female who had gazed upon the awesome would have surely had her mind blown. Hunter cleared his throat. "Aedion, this is an important operation. You need to keep it in your pants, and you need to leave this poor lady alone. A woman of such exquisite beauty has no time for the likes of us or our attempts to court her. You claim to be being a gentleman, but if that were the case then you wouldn't be trying nearly so hard as you are. Keep things professional. This isn't a request, this is an order from your new boss" Hunter said, his mouth curving into an ever-so-slight smirk. That sounded just like something Neoph would say in this situation didn't it? He wasn't entirely sure...he hadn't really paid enough attention to figure it out. If all else failed, maybe Hunter could ship him off to North Korea and then Aedion would be eaten like the pussycat he was. Not spiteful in the slightest. Strictly professional, of course.
Shane used Pushing!
Name: Drake Famoye Age: 20 Gender: Male Race: Human Appearance: Here Role in society: Leader of the Scouting Regiment Weapon: 3D maneuver gear with swords. Also has a spear stored in his home should he need it. Power: None Bio: Spoiler: Bio From the moment Drake was a child, he had been told he was destined for great things. His father, Daniel Famoye, had been a general among the military police in the walled city, and from the age of five years old Drake was showing potential. Even at a young age like that, he was already trying to help out with dealing with the titans. People refused to let him help then, but the fact he was trying made him a standout from other children, as did his father's position of power. When Drake was eight years old, an overwhelming force of titans began assaulting the small settlements outside of the city, and his father was sent with a small force of the city's most elite soldiers to go and deal with them. Drake stowed away in the back of a caravan of supplies, and after a couple of days they arrived at the settlements in time to see the titans destroying homes and eating people. The band of warriors got to work, cutting the titans down swiftly, but their numbers were impressive and the warriors found themselves being forced back. And then Daniel Famoye began unleashing attack after attack on the titans. With his fierce strength and determination, the humans began getting back the advantage. However, just as they were starting to push them back, Drake made his move. Grabbing the 3DMG he fired a piercy hooky thing at one of the titans. The boy was a natural, swinging around and out-maneuvering the titan. However, as he swung straight into the neck of the titan, he found himself unable to stab the blade in deep enough due to lacking the strength. Amidst his shock, the Titan found the opening and struck Drake off of his shoulder. Laying on the ground and undefended, Drake was an easy kill. As the titan slammed its fist straight at Drake, Daniel Famoye stood in its path and simply held the titan's fist away from his son. Screaming at Drake to run, he held the titan back for about thirty seconds before his legs gave way and he found himself crushed. Seconds later, he was lifted up and eaten by the titan he had so bravely fought off. It took everything in him for Drake not to turn back and attack out of rage, but he found the determination inside of him and ran back. The next few days were the most terrifying of Drake's life. He was on the move constantly, hiding from the titan that was pursuing him. Eventually, he found his way back to the walled city, but he hadn't quite made it there when the titan finally caught him. Screaming and kicking, Drake fought furiously, but it was pointless. The titan's strength far outweighed his own, and just as he was about to suffer the same fate as his father the titan stopped and fell forward, its body limp and unmoving. When the dust cleared, the young boy could at last see his savior. It was a man with white hair and sturdy-looking armour. It was the king of Kaynta. Drake thanked the man and begged him to teach him to fight the titans. The king, seeing the determination and fear in the boy's eyes, took him in and allowed him to live among them. Not even a year later, Drake found himself confronted by the titans once more. He'd been scavenging for materials in the field when he'd spotted the king's daughter, Amber Rouge, being gripped by a titan. Dropping everything he was carrying, Drake rushed forward and began yelling at the titan, before striking it with his fists. Though they did no damage at all, they did distract the titan long enough for the king to come in and attack the titan, causing the giant to drop its captive. Drake then dove forward as the girl was dropped and caught her, though it was close. He took her out of the way and set her down gently against a tree before he ran back to help the king. By the time he got back, though, the titan was slain. A few years later, Drake had his chance to showcase how much he had learned from the king. The boy had grown up to be a powerful warrior, able to best most of the warriors in Kaynta in single combat. This was tested when he heard a scream come from below him. It wasn't a scream of rage or excitement, but one of fear and sorrow. He'd know that scream anywhere; he'd let out one similar the day his father had died. And without another thought, Drake was off. He grabbed his 3DMG and simply leaped off of the canopy that everything was built on top of. He came down with incredible force straight on one of the titans that was threatening a younger girl, cutting the giant's neck immediately and killing it. He then rode the body down before launching his assault on the other titan, climbing up its legs and eventually to its face where he lashed out with both of his swords, blinding the creature momentarily. He then dashed around to the titan's neck and with one vicious, brutal slash he landed the cut and the giant fell to the ground, dead. Picking up the girl who was in tears at that point, he took her back with him up to the canopy and gave her a new home. A few years later and Drake was the leader of the scouting regiment. He'd proven himself many times in the field of battle but his attention to detail was impeccable, making him an obvious choice for the position. Truth be told, he excelled in just about every area of every job in Kaynta with the exception of repairs, but scouting was the one he had chosen. Other:
Name: Stefano 'Hunter' Macellazione Age: 28 Gender: Male Race: Human Appearance: Here Role in society: Soldier. A bit of a veteran given how many years he's been fighting the titans for. Weapon: Two of these swords. 3D maneuver gear ftw Power: None Bio: Spoiler: Bio Nobody knows Hunter, he keeps to himself and kills Titans. Shut up Gabi, nobody asked you. He spends most of his time either poking fun at someone or killing things, but almost never goes out of his way to talk to somebody. Rumours say his entire village was slaughtered at the hands of the titans and that he was the only survivor. Of course those rumours are wrong, but still. Other: Name: Akari Hirano Age: 20 Gender: Female Race: Half-Fae Appearance: Here for her normal form, and here for her wolf form Role in society: Tinkerer. Often tweaks and repairs 3D maneuver gear and invents other weapons to help with the titans, however she prefers to go and see the results of her equipment first-hand so she often goes outside to test it herself in the field. Weapon: One of the swords, and a pistol. Power: The power to transform into her wolf form for a short time. While other Fae can maintain it for a lengthy period of time, hers only lasts for up to an hour due to her not being 100% fae. Bio: Spoiler Akari's story is no more or less traumatic than anyone else. Everyone in Kaynta has a horrible story to their name for the most part, but hers is one she keeps a closely guarded secret. Her mother was a pureblood Fae, her father was a human. When she was young, Akari's mother went out on her usual runs with the scouting regiment. This run would end worse than any other runs, for her mother would never return. Well, that's not entirely true, she did return...but it didn't go well. A young girl raced towards the wall as she heard the cries and screams of her mother, running towards the wall and hurrying to a point where she could see mostly everything from. She saw her mother being picked up by a titan and swallowed whole, the screams ending rather abruptly. Go forward a few days, and a grief stricken Akari was bothered even more. There was a loud knocking at the door, and the second her father opened the door he was slammed against the wall and one of the soldiers began yelling at him. It appeared someone had spoken of Akari's Fae heritage, and the people inside of the wall did not feel safe with a potential danger among them, or so they claimed. Akari was seperated by her father and tossed outside of the wall. The last thing she heard before the gates slammed shut were the words being spoken; "You will be executed at dawn" to her father. The next few days were the roughest days of her life. Surviving alone was horribly frightening, and she found it extremely difficult. At one point, she found herself being chased by two male titans. They weren't amazingly big, but they were much bigger than her. That wasn't hard, given she was only 15. She backed up against a tree and began screaming and crying, not wanting to be eaten. Right as they neared her, a rustling was heard from the trees followed by a single male falling from the sky. Downwards he spiralled, right towards one of the titans where he slashed straight across the back of its neck, slaying the creature instantly. He then rode the titan's body to the ground, then began climbing up the other one where he began hacking and slashing at the other one's neck. They were both slain quickly, saving the little girl. A few years on and Akari had found her place in Kaynta. It wasn't the best life, but it was better than her previous one. She often wondered what had happened to her father, and what would happen if she returned there, but she would then distract herself tinkering with her devices and experimenting with the 3D maneuver gear. It wasn't much, but it was home to her. Other:
Gaius is asleep and thus did nothing Ra used fire dash! It did 16 damage, but with speed, magic and weapon he did 56 damage and set Sheeptard on fire, taking an additional 5 damage this turn and the next Rennette used Esuna on Veilen, causing him to wake up! Veilen awoke, and then used Binding Strike! It did 6 damage, but with strength, speed, magic and weapon it did 34 damage! Thomas used fire! It did 4 damage, but with magic and weapon it did 27 damage! Charlotte used Esuna on Gaius, and then blocked for Gaius! All together, the party did 117. Sheeptard blocked 5 of this, but with burning taken into consideration he took 126 damage! Some of the flames went out, so next turn he only takes 5 burn damage! HIS MEATSHIELD KICKED IN TOO WHICH I TOTALLY DIDNT FORGET, REDUCING 50 OF THE DAMAGE AND THEN SINCE IT WAS BROKEN HE HEALED FOR AN EXTRA 50 AND HIS FIRST ATTACK DOES +5 DAMAGE. I'm done with this. Sheeptard's turn He used his Assault and Baahtery, giving him a +55 damage shield until next turn. OR AT LEAST HE WOULD HAVE BUT NOTHING HAPPENED BECAUSE **** THIS HE'S STALLING THE **** OUT OF IT He used his baaaaaaaad laser on Gaius, but Charlotte blocked the 0 damage done.

Due to knockups being a non-cleansable form of CC, Esuna does not affect it. 5-8 damage to a single target Assault and Baahttery: The Sheep King plucks a lamb from the earth itself and slams it into his chest with supreme, manly gusto, causing the lamb to stick to his woolly awesomeness and provide a temporary meatshield, and nobody can ever take that away from it. 50 damage shield for 1 turn Unstoppable Fleece: Despite his manly ego, Sheeptard is a little....sheepish, and is quite easily startled. Each attack landed on him has a 5% chance to engulf the attacker in the fluffiest wool imaginable, reducing the damage on their next attack by 50%. Lambassador: While Sheeptard mourns the loss of his woolen brethren, he also respects the laws of the land and the means for survival, and so he consumes his fallen lamb friends, gaining 50 hp back whenever one of his meatshields are destroyed, as well as +5 damage on his next attack. Counting Sheep: Sheeptard casts his magic on an enemy, causing them to feel drowsy as illusions of small sheep began running by them and leaping over fences.

When the light had faded, Shane found himself with the others in an area that looked and certainly felt quite cold. How the hell he'd gotten there, he'd never now. Thankfully, he was sure that Ze Operator knew. And he did, so Shane read his mind and cheated to get the answers. Hooray for having someone who knew everything. He then bombarded the new enemy that had appeared before them with a powerful psionic inundation.
Level unknown, haven't figured it out yet No sooner had Bryce called out then Emma was there, shotgun in hand. She'd been trying to deal with the boss, but she hadn't been able to get a clear shot in. The boss was heavily surrounded by melee fighters, so without risking hitting the wrong target it'd be difficult for any ranged class to actually get any hits in. "You damned idiots! Get out of the way!" she remembered yelling, but she hadn't noticed anybody moving. And so she'd begun looking for Tessa and Bryce, and the moment Bryce had called out she'd gone to his aid. "I've got your back" she said, firing a full round at the goblin. The goblin staggered backwards, and Emma took the opportunity to fire a shot at the creature at point blank range, causing the goblin to vanish into pixelly death. It was odd, but it felt good. "Next one's coming, let's take it down quickly and group up with your sister again, alright?" she asked, before turning and beginning to fire at the oncoming goblin. Level 5 Samuel had gone to help <Seth's Angel>, but apparently <Hades> had it covered. That was good, it meant his awareness was at least good enough that Samuel could rely on him, maybe. However, apparently while he was gloating and warning <Seth's Angel>, <Hades> failed to notice the orc behind him that was charging him down. Their numbers were going down, but the orcs were starting to group up and swarm them which would mean trouble for them. Leaping over, Samuel struck first with his katana in his left hand, and then with the sword in his right. He was at their level now, meaning they were nowhere near as much of a struggle, indicated by the loss of half the hp. He didn't stop there though, repeating the motion swiftly and dispatching it almost instantly. "Looks like somebody needs to take their own advice" he said. It wasn't in a friendly tone, because it wasn't meant as a joke. It was more of a warning, really. Turning around, he saw three orcs coming towards him. "Angel, Hades, be careful. They're banding together, pretty soon we're going to have way too many to deal with" he shouted out. But not if we have extra people helping us, he thought to himself. "Open, Gates of the heavens. Release Alexander!" he ordered, just as one of the three orcs dove forward. A moment later, it was impaled by the spear of Alexander the Great, who came flying down from the sky to land directly on top of the orc that had dared to attack his summoner. Alexander then turned and faced the two orcs. Now it was two on two; Alexander the Great and Samuel Agnès against two orcs. It was hardly a fair fight. With a grin, the swordsman and his tactical comrade charged forward and began their assault.
Well damn, it'd actually worked. If he'd known that all it took was getting women to do what he wanted was asking, he would've had plenty more bending over for him. Maybe he ought to try it one day. Maybe he ought to actually treat them like humans, give them freedom, and- Yeah, he couldn't even think the last part without cracking up a little as he ran. He could hear the men running after them, and with Veera following he ducked into an alleyway. Unfortunately, it was a dead end. Turning around, he looked at Veera and shrugged. About to leave the alleyway, he was suddenly interrupted by five of the mob catching up to him. There was only one way to escape, and fortunately for them Hunter had found it. Pointing behind them, he did his best to look absolutely shocked. "My god, is that the leader of House Anima with his pants around his ankles? Has he no shame?" he cried out, causing four of the five to turn around. "Uh....and his son?!" he tried. The fifth turned around. Even Hunter was disgusted by that. Using the moment of distraction, Hunter gestured to the window just to the side of them. It lead into a house, and breaking into a house was very much illegal, but what choice did they have? "In through there" he instructed, climbing through the window and into the house. There was a shriek from the woman inside, but Hunter just pushed her away and onto the bed nearby. "If you're ever bored and need a sex machine, look for Carlos of House Dahaka" the male said with a wink, before pushing past her and racing outside of the house. A couple of minutes later, Hunter had managed to evade the men. They no longer seemed to be searching for them, but still he had to be careful. "We should be fine, but keep an eye out for them anyway. If there's one thing they specialize in, it's coming in from behind when you aren't looking" Hunter said, making what had to be at least the sixth gay joke that day. Taking a seat on a nearby bench, he breathed a sigh of relief. "You're quicker than you look. What's your name?" he asked, getting straight to the point.
Hunter was about to speak and explain the plan, but then he'd had a book thrown into his face and slam open right on a very interesting page. "Holy shit, she actually reads porn. I didn't even know people still read porn. It's way better to just up and screw someone rather than read about it isn't it? Like listen to this: 'Angela lifted her leg up and onto the bed, showing her lover her exquisitely smooth and slender legs. She watched as his eyes went over every inch of her wet, naked body, and then she knew; he was hers'. Sounds boring as hell doesn't it?" Hunter questioned. He then cleared his throat. "Right, a plan. Well, first step is for Aedion to stop hitting on Ana. She's a human being man, treat her like one. She isn't just a piece of fine ass, she has emotions. Your gentlemanly act isn't fooling anyone, especially not me. I'm an expert at hitting on women, you make it way too obvious" Casonova himself said. His voice was as sweet as an angel's, with his looks matching. At least, that's what he thought. "After he's put his tiny pee-pee away, we'll have the teams split into groups like Neoph suggested. He had the right idea, but the wrong people. One team does recon, the other searches for clues. I'll say my team's team one, and the rest of you guys are team two. Sound good? Good" Hunter explained. God he was good at his job.
Emma wasn't going quite as good as most others, but she wasn't in the absolute worst situation. She, like the others, had released her summon. And like the others, had begun fighting them. However, unlike most of the others, her summon didn't have a sword or a spear or any kind of melee weapon. No, her summon was ranged and had pretty much a better version of her own weapon. Why had she chosen Ned Kelly? Why couldn't she have chosen barney the dinosaur or some crap like that? No, she had to pick the most badass australian legend she could think of. And damn she was regretting it. She ducked behind another rock in the field as her summon fired another blast. She'd been repeating this motion for the last few minutes, unable to make any headway. Ned Kelly had initiated the fight with his most powerful ability, one that buffed the crap out of his attacks, before he had begun a barrage of constant shots. She wasn't going to make any progress, and she knew it. Taking a deep breath, she turned around and peered over the top of the boulder with the end of her gun pointing straight at Ned. Except it wasn't pointing at Ned. Where was he? Moments later, she got her answer. A smoke cannister landed on the ground beside her and started shrouding the immediate area in darkness and caused Emma to start coughing. Through the smoke she saw a dark shadow appear in front of her, followed by his shotgun. Emma froze, fear inside of her. Quickly she began trying to pick exactly where he was. She could see the shadow, but was that really him? While she was thinking that, an explosive shell came from the other side of the smoke straight towards her, hitting her in the stomach and sending a powerful explosion that blew away the smoke, along with the rest of her hp except 1. Emma had lost. "You have failed me, summoner. You are not worthy" came the voice of Ned Kelly, shortly before he vanished. She sat there for a moment, not able to believe it. If it weren't for the duel mechanics, she would be dead. Tears welled up in her eyes as the realization came in. She looked around and could see Bryce and Tessa, both of them had apparently got her summons. Sadly and slowly she turned away from them and simply stared where Ned had been. She'd tried so hard, she'd done everything she could hadn't she? And yet, she had failed. The tears she'd been holding up were released, and all the built up emotions were released with them. She began sobbing. Why had they been put in that game? She'd never done anything wrong, what had she done to deserve this? After just a minute, she pulled herself together. The weak would die, she was sure of it. Only the strong would survive, and if she sat there crying she'd be an easy target. If she couldn't even get her summon, what right did she have to live while others would surely die? She had to prove herself, and she had to do it now. "Open, gates of heaven! Release Ned Kelly so that I might face him and prove I have what it takes to beat this game!" Emma called out once more. She was tired and only had 10HP due to regeneration, but she had to try. "Summoner, you should heal before you attempt this. Should you fail this time, you will have only one more chance before the ability to call upon my strength is lost forever" Ned Kelly warned. It didn't even sound like him, it sounded like it was just a program...probably because he was. "I don't care!" the girl called out. Ned Kelly simply nodded and the fight began. Firing at each other and dodging the shots, the two were fiercely close in terms of being hit. They began firing at each other faster and faster, every few shots having to stop and reload on the fly until eventually Emma was just a little too slow. She'd reloaded her gun, but Ned had his gun to the back of her head, just as Tessa had had a short time ago. "You have failed me once more, summoner. You are still not worthy" he said. At this, something triggered in Emma. Perhaps it was the built up rage, perhaps it was her Australian heritage, but some small part of her refused to give up. Whirring around faster than a tasmanian devil, the girl lashed out with a savage kick and disarmed her summon, who raced back to collect the gun. He then turned and shot a smoke canister up in the air and towards her. Waiting for the right moment, Emma watched it sail towards her, before firing a single blast from her shotgun and sending the canister straight back at Ned, shrouding him in darkness. The cry of confusion was easy to hear as he began engulfed in a smoke cloud, and he began moving quick. God, he moved quick, a moment later and he would be out of it. And he was. Not even three seconds after he'd had his vision shrouded, he was out of it and scanning the horizon for Emma. He didn't have to look far. In fact, he only had to look up at the girl who was standing just before him, and more importantly at the shotgun put in his face. "Not worthy my ass" the girl said, before firing one solid blast into his face, taking away 50% of Ned Kelly's hp immediately. Without a word, Ned vanished, and Emma received a notification that she had acquired a new item. Opening her inventory, she equipped the summoners promise and then made her way back over to Bryce and Tessa. She wasn't entirely sure if they'd seen her outbreak earlier. Given how close by they'd been, she figured it was fairly likely...god that was embarassing. "How'd you two go?" she asked, quick to change conversation.
"Daf*ck is a pasty? You can keep your poisoned food to yourself" Hunter responded, before her words had sunk in. She was right, he was missing a lot of clothing. But....his clothing was...in there, he thought to himself as he turned his head slowly back to the brothel. "I, uh, I don't need any clothing. It's good to let the boys hang loose in a while. I'm sure you can relate, given there's probably a dick under those garments of yours. No sane woman can resist staring, except you. In any case, I'll be back in just a moment" Hunter said. Taking a deep breath, the man readied himself and then shoulder charged straight through the doorway and back inside. He came out roughly two minutes, though he did not use the door. No, rather he came crashing straight through one of the empty windows, rolling in a heap and thudding into the wall followed by some angry shouting as people began clambering out of the window after him. Didn't matter though, Hunter was clothed and had his blade. He turned to look at the woman who had offered him food. He didn't like people, but she was female and had offered him food, so how bad could she be? "There's no real time to explain, just follow me" he said, before turning and hurrying in the opposite direction to make a head start on the people that he was sure would soon be following.
"And if we saw him with what I'm assuming is this book earlier, maybe there's something in this heap of junk that can get us out of here" Glen said, thinking out loud and adding onto what Kaida had said. He looked at all the things in the piles as he walked through them. There didn't really seem to be anything that looked like it could get them out of there. Then again, who was he to say what could or could not help them out? They were a group of people who had magic keys that seemed to be able to open anything, shoot lasers and use magic. On top of that, there were talking animals everywhere and...yeah, not much phased Glen anymore.
As Ana dove for the controls, Glen looked ahead at what was incoming. "Oh for the love of Sapphire can I not get a break?" he complained, before he began trying to think of ways around it. If there was a new and different thing he hadn't tried, getting crushed to death by a giant space dick would probably be it. "Okay, maybe if I swerve to the side! No, can't do that we'll get hit. Underneath then? No, there's not enough time. There's only one thing to do then. Ana, if we get crushed here, I want you to know this is somehow your fault. With that being said, we're going straight THROUGH the asteroid!" the keyslinger announced, before slamming his foot down on the accelerator and plowing straight into the obstacle ahead. The impact was tremendous, shaking Glen right to the core, but they survived. Turning back to Ana, he shrugged his shoulders. "Guess you worried for nothing" he stated simply.
Shane listened carefully to what was said. So apparently Ze Operator had files on him. That was interesting indeed, given that the only person that had known about his powers was Stein. There was Stein, there was Isabella, and Lucas. All three had died because of him, so how was it that this man knew of them too? Not only knew about his powers, but also had his files? "If you know as much as you claim, then you'll know not to get in my way" the boy threatened. The idea of someone knowing so much about his life when he had no idea who they were was unsettling at best. Even if Ze Operator knew about his powers, surely the files couldn't tell him that the killing he had done when he was younger hadn't been intentional...could they? Shrugging off the thought, he stepped inside the tower.
Begrudgingly, Hunter accepted Gwen's hand and allowed her to help him up. He didn't look particularly happy about it though. Losing his arm had been one thing, being called stubby because of it was another. What an ass. That little girl was the true villain of the RP, he was sure of it. Xindai might be something, but that little girl was probably pulling his strings. So when she hugged him like two minutes later, Hunter hugged her back with one arm. "Its okay, I'll miss you too. Just stay here, just stand right there and don't move a muscle so we can share this moment forever" the male said as he raised his other arm above the girl. In his hand gleamed a small dagger, and just as he brought it down to stab the girl in the skull she moved out of the way and moved to another area. Turning to look at Gwen, he put away the dagger. "Don't look at me like that. Like you haven't tried to murder a child before. They're annoying little turds, how the hell can you go a lifetime without doing it at least once?" he asked, still not looking particularly impressed. "If we had time, sure I could teach you. Though, I'm not quite sure what you mean. Do you mean teach you how to be good with it or do you really not know how to stab someone?" Glen replied, resisting the urge to laugh. He paused for a moment as he pondered how to explain excalibur to her. "There's not too much to tell really, all I was told is it's some powerful weapon and the only hope we have. I know where it is, I don't know what the damn thing looks like. Although, if what Sapph said is true, anyone with too much darkness wouldn't be able to wield it. Which means I have to find someone pure of heart or some crap, and I have no idea how I'm supposed to do that" he explained, before leaning back with a sigh and took his eyes off of the path ahead for just a moment. "This is hopeless" he said.
Hunter was thinking things through very carefully. "Alright. Lance, you're in the second group. You go with him, mute A" he said, pointing to Hexin's character. "Aello, you look like a fairly beefy guy so you can tank for them, and Neoph can lead you guys. Mute B...Specter? Ana, and Aedion you guys are with me. Can't have the two mutes together, and I can't have you murdering Lance instead of me, Aedion. I called dibs years ago. And well Ana I'm sure you'll make a lovely cheerleader. You've got the legs for it, I can tell you that much" he complimented, organizing the teams.
That's...actually pretty accurate. Thanks!
