Starter ONE: tiger

Billgar · Starter ONE: tiger

After a short wait a carriage arrives to take tiger to the eastern regions of Nocte. Passing by the barren lands that were once known as Kishinston, only charred ashes and plains remain, passing by that soulless sight, eventually the carriage arrives at the forest of Souls.

Carriage Driver: "Well, off ya go then, dont worry, they're only perchin' lizards, ive brought countless families out this far for picknicks. jsut choose a few to pick on and try and kill em wit dat there sword you brought wit ya! I will wait here with the carriage for when your done. If you got any problems or questions don't be fraid to ask."

Looking out into the field that lies just ahead of the forest there are several lizards lazing about in the warm sun of the day. A small stream is trickling through the field and a sole lizard sips from it, while another swims in the most awkward manner. The coach driver lets out a final warning.

"I almost forgot, but just don't try to enter the forest of souls, unless you an immortal you shall surely perish, i recommend sticking outside of it in this there field to get your prey."

he pulls out a kiseru and begins to smoke. releasing a puff into the air he glares up at the sun.

I hold my sword poised and ready to strike. Trying to stay hidden as much as possible, I look around for the one closest to me that has plenty of tall grass and/or shrubs inbetween us for me to use to sneak up on it.

Billgar

Sneaking through the crass, you see one sleeping a few feet in front of you, it is unaware fo your presence.

Tigereyz85

I mentaly send off a quick prayer to my godess of nature for the spirit of the lizard, and swing for the lizard where the necks join the body.

Billgar

Making fair contact, you cut off one of the two heads of the sleeping reptile. In a states of great dismay, it lashes up and tries to take out its foe. Latching on with its remaining head. It bite sinto your hand.

*perching lizard takes 19 damage*
*tiger takes 4 damage*

Tigereyz85

I scream an oath, and swing again

Billgar

Swiging again at the lizard(as it is attached to the hand not wielding the sword), you strike it with the hilt so as to not cut your own hand off. The lizard is removed from your hand taking a small bit of your flesh with it. The creature lays on the ground suffering.

*perching lizard takes 8 damage*
*tiger takes 5 damage*

Tigereyz85

I quickly put it out of it's misery, and then look around to see if the noise attrackted any attention to the other lizards

Billgar

Finishing off the lizard, a couple more that were in the grass scatter as they are skittish n nature, about ten yards off a lizard lays sunbathing on a rock.

*obtained lizard corpse*

Tigereyz85

making sure to stay downwind(as I'm not sure on their sence of smell, and rather not risk it) I sneak through the grass towards the one sunning itself on the rock. I swing as to cut it right in half, accross the middle...not down the middle.

Billgar

being a bit quicker to react that the other one, this one stand quick and escapes with only a scratch on its stomach, trying to defend itself, the lizard leaps up and manages to get you by the throat.

*perching Lizard takes 9 damage*
*tiger takes 14 damage*

Tigereyz85

with the hand that is not holding the sword, i'm going to grab this things tail and pull him out straight, and with the sword, I'm going to run it through, and then slice towards the tail

Billgar

Pulling the lizard off, you run it through and cease the end of the one foot tall reptile.

*perching lizard takes 25 damage and dies*
*obtained second corpse*

Upon getting both the corpses rquired for the quest you head back to the carriage injured pretty heavily. After some first aid from the carriage driver, you are feeling like new and he escorts you back to the capital.

{ooc; bring the lizard corpses to the quest thread. http://lowestexistance.myfreeforum.org/about1675.html }
