Andrion Wilgor 60/60

Andrion stopped in his running and turned to face the adversary following him. He knew that the shadow portal was now not far away and should he reach it, he was safe. He needed to win some time so while slowly backing towards the portal, he started talking.

"Maybe you can smell me, but I am not the one you are looking for. Don't you think that the appearence of the Reaper and the assassination of Larry are a strange coincidence? I am only a defenseless merchant trying to save myself."

Roderick 70/70

The Neogi was distracted, and the bard struck twice more, Bandit had held him off balance long enough for Roderik to recover and strike again, both daggers bit into the spider-snake creature's neck. (10 damage) The dark red blood that spurted over his hands was arterial lifeblood, and the beast would be dead in moments. He backed up to let the doberman finish off the creature while he watched and called for the daggers to return to him.

Scraag HP: negligible

Scraag saw the men shouting orders, the paladin turned to focus on the action around the one the master had named Larry. Taking charge for once, he turned and ran around the side of the inn, trying to shake the notice of the others, after all who would notice a single goblin when the silver man had been slain. His normally flapping feet were silent as he used the stealth that had aided him against the donor of his last horse. He would steal food, and then head north, forgotten by all here in the confusion. The master would reward him handsomly. And the goblin grinned in malicious glee.

ArcadesSabboth · 09-06-2004, 04:47 PM

Arcades had followed Liam and the "merchant" outside. His nose in the Drow form was far from it's abillity in his true shape, so he quickly reverts back to his full dragon size and circles around behind the Merchant. He recognized this scent immediately as the man who first discovered his dragon nature and snarls at him when he smells the scent of Larry Silverfall's blood on him.

"Andrion.... Your scent is unmistakable to me. You are a traitor to our cause." came his rumbling voice, full of anger. His scales gleam, making him seem more like a monster than his body appears.

OOC: for Skye: Andrion did turn around but kept moving

Andrion Wilgor 60/60

Andrion had to think and had to think fast. He stopped moving and took the amulet off, so that everyone could see him. He only needed enough time to be able to cast one spell. With this in mind he started talking while mentally preparing the spell.

"Wait a moment. Everyone listen to me. I can explain everything. I am not this Andrion you refer to. You can probably smell him on me as he is the one who hired me to kill the ranger. I now see that the reward promised was not high enough to cover the risks. I know that probably all of you want to kill me now, but let me make a proposition for you. If you leave me alive I can lead you to the place where Andrion can be found."

OOC: everyone remember that although Andrion has become visible he still has the merchant disguise and his hair is dyed blonde. Although probably Arcades can see through it, he is behind Andrion.

ooc- Arcades, however, is not the only one with unique senses... [img]smile.gif[/img]

ic- Liam

Liam snarled and sheathed his weapons. "I have hearrd it all beforre. Don't botherr trrying to buy time with me." He pulled the hood of his black cape up to hide his face. "The killerr merrely completes his job."

And with that comment, Andrion was forced to watch in astonishment as the tall aristocrat bounded into the air again, with claws outstretched. But this time, it was not his bugnuk that were reaching out to cut his flesh. Instead, the claws were the actual nails on Liam's fingers, now sharpened to cruel points. Hidden within the depths of the cloak, Liam's face melted to the more feline shape of his hybrid form, his sharp teeth bared and his golden eyes glinting maliciously. Even the bravest of men would feel a jolt of cold fear when looking into the hybrid's cold, animalistic eyes.

ooc- Arcades can probably smell tiger now, and possibly see a bit of Liam, but other than that only Andrion can see the changes in Liam, because of his cloak.

EDIT- and Dplax, if your character merely tries talking again, he will die or be fatally wounded. Liam is not much of a talker.

He raises his head and looks around in the trees, seeing a hint of Nanashi hidden in the foliage. Barring his cruel, dagger-like teeth, he turns his attention back to the Disguised Andrion. It was clear to his eyes that magic was at work to conceal Andrion, and he wouldnt allow this traitor to escape.

He knocks Andrion off his feet with a quick lash from his tail and presses his forepaw down on his body, not enough pressure to crush him, but plenty to immobilize him.

"Stop your posturing, Andrion. My eyes arent so old and dull that they cant see the through your disguise. You will suffer your proper fate at the hands of all Larry's companions, not just by my hand."

He turns his head to look at Liam and motions toward the trees. "The creature who attacked you before on our way here is hidding in the trees. I will deal with this one, you should deal with Nanashi."

OOC- My bad. =)

ooc- Liam crashes into Arcades mid-leap! [img]tongue.gif[/img] and Arcades, Andrion isn't using a magic spell to look like the merchant, he used the old fashion wig and such-ness [img]smile.gif[/img] you might want to edit

ic- Liam

Liam uttered a gutteral growl in response and whirled 180 degrees in the opposite direction while still in the air, landing lightly with Andrion and Arcades now behind him instead of in front of him. Running quickly and silently, appearing to be merely a black blur to normal folk, he stopped at the edge of the trees.

"Why do you hunt me?!" He demanded angrily of the seemingly empty forest, although his senses told him better. His cold tawny eyes reflected that he wasn't in any mood to be toyed with.

Larry_OHF · 09-06-2004, 10:45 PM

Nanashi

From a darkness within the foliage of the trees, a voice responded.

"I want an answer before you die. Why did you do it...to me...to those that loved and trusted you...and how can you breathe the air each day with the weight of betrayal on your shoulders?"

The foliage rustled for a moment, only to be echoed by another branch a few feet away. That branch was equally shadowed from the sunlight.

================================================== =============================

Larry

Larry was again in his dream world. He was actually in a nightmare.

In this vision, he was falling, and could see nothing but darkness all around. Voices of laughter could be heard about him, but then there was a thin line of light. He reached for this light and grabbed onto it, realizing that it was a rope made of light. The rope stopped his fall, and he took a breath of relief.

On the outside, Larry breathed a sigh of peace, and his pulse regulated. The bleeding had stopped, and the whiteness of his complexion was slowly giving away to a slight blush upon his cheeks.

OOC>>>Larry has recieved 1 hp, and is not in danger of immediate death.

OOC:SOMETIMES, BEING A WOLF CAN CAUSE OTHERS TO FORGET YOU WERE THERE...

IC: She has been watching all of this from just outside the tavern's doors, staying to the shadow falling upon the ground from the walls. Her eyes glow faintly as she surmises each situation, and comes to the conclusion that everyone seems to be doing what they need to.

She softly taps a paw to the ground, and lowers her head, blowing softly in the dirt in front of her....

Making up her mind, she calls her staff to her, then prepares to leap towards the Shadow portal, with one intent on her mind.....

OOC: LARRY PM
