Sir David hit a hard floor, rolled to his feet, and took off. He yelled in pain as a fireball struck his back, but kept going. Knowing that he was no match in speed for the tall, agile warriors chasing close behind him, he ducked behind a corner and drew his blade. The first to turn the corner was impaled, the second decapitated. Stealing a quick glance behind him, Sir David saw another door; he turned back in time to parry a crushing blow, and then backed through the door.

BOB, realising that his party needs help, does something he has not tried in many years. He focuses(sp?) all his energy through Gynia's staff. The effect was as desired, the mixture that came out of the staff not only imobilaised the drake lord, but actualy blew the head off.

ooc: The folowing only makes sense if the drake lord is raptilian.

The pure power that gave the drake lord his strength allowed the body to live on storming the place with every known spell and ability. After some hours of dogueing(sp?) the spells the cave lay bare of all living things, that is all but our party of heroes. Aperently in his rage, the drake lord, not haveing eyes with which to aim, killed most of his minions and missed, mostly, the target of intrest, us. The rest of the drakes and other creatures have ran away. The party all lay on the ground with nobody having the strength to move. At that point the three worriors sent to bring them to Vaitar-ka (I think)...

What about Outcast? He'll start out in an orb that only allows him to move around, he'll be stuck in there until everyone here agrees to free him.

Nicodemus steps free from the bark and roots that had been his legs and feet during most of the battle. Luckily, he had been hit by a magic dispelling spell, and his legs and feet returned to normal, only encased in wood. Nicos turns around and disintegrates the stump that had bound him. Seeing the warriors heading towards the party, Nicodemus pulls out a rope and casts a spell on it. As the rope stretches ten feet straight up into the air, he casts another spell, causing a small stone wall to spring up between the vahnatai and the party.

"Up the rope! Quickly now." after everyone has climbed the rope into the extra-dimensional bubble, Nicodemus follows after them and pulls the rope up with him.

"Won't they be able to see us?" asks Shadow Wolf.

"That's the beauty of the Rope Trick, we can see out, but they can't even see where it was we climbed up to. This place is invisible to them.
"I don't know about anyone else, but I'm tired, so now would be a good time for a nap. This place is completely safe, and will last for a few hours. Try to get some rest, and wake me after three turns of the glass." So saying, Nicodemus pulls out a small hourglass, and places it on the "ground" next to him.

YES YOU ARE IN AND YOU ARE ALSO IN YOUR ORB UNTIL WE SAY YOU CAN LEAVE IT. WE ALSO HAVE THE POWER TO DECLARE YOU "SHUNNED".

IC: Sir David found himself facing another crystal. Alternating between fending off the blows of the incoming warriors and stealing glances at the crystal, Sir David decided that this crystal, soul or not, was not hostile. Making up his mind, Sir David lunged at the nearest warrior, knocking him back into the one behind him and effectively clogging the doorway. Sir David began dealing blows like a madman until all that was left of the persuing warriors was a pile of waveblades, cloaks, and crystals. Sir David quickly went next to the crystal, knelt down, and focused all of his concentration on it. He felt nothing. Standing up, he jumped. He had felt a flicker of life within it. Kneeling down quickly once more, he asked the crystal, "Who are you?"

OOC: FB, at least READ the posts so you know where we are, before posting the joining post. we're technically not in the cave right now, more like some extradimensional haven.

oh, and FD, it's time to train your character with mine. :P

Alec: the RP itself isn't that bad, just that FB's interference makes it seem so.

IC:
Shadow Wolf was trying to catch some much needed sleep when he saw Firedrake practising with his sword. "I see you wish to be a blademaster," he called.

"How could you tell?" he inquired as he approached.

"Because you're trying to imitate the physical skills of a real blademaster," Gynia answered before Shadow Wolf could.

With a small jump, Shadow Wolf got up and drew his sword. The slender blade made very little sound as it was removed from the scabbard. "Ah, the stealth of the Silentstriker. But that is not the point of why I called you. Strike at me, Firedrake."

FD thrust his sword at SW, but the blademaster parried the weapon with ease. "A good try and strong strike. Keep trying till you hit me."

FD then attacked SW with his sword many times but never managed to touch him, always barely missing, or had his blow parried or dodged. Then, when FD thought he had SW out of balance, he swung at him for a finishing blow. SW dodged it, and knocked FD's weapon off with a kick to the wrist. SW sheathed his sword, then picked up FD's and returned it to him.

"Now, what have you learned here?" asked Shadow Wolf.
"You're good."
"With almost two decades of experience and skill, it's only natural. I must tell you now, a good blademaster does not strike with brute force, but rather he relies on speed, control and precision. Just swinging at the enemy with all your might can work sometimes, but not if your enemy has at least some form of physical fighting skill. An attack with brute force often slows down your attack so that it can be parried easily. However, swift strikes often deal less damage on their own, but you will be able to strike multiple times before your enemy can react. Remember this principle; it is the basis of the physical skills of blademastery."

BOB, not liking orbs with ppl in them turns the orb into cheese. the cheese breaks and out comes a impish looking, foul smelling, and overall unappealing thing.

Thing: "Hi, I'm Outcast."

BOB: "Bye, what-ever-your-name-is."

BOB, with great dislike of this new arivel from thin air, outs the chreature into a cheese prison in side the cave.

BOB: "If the woriors ever come back we'll get a warning from that thing down there, when we move we'll take it with us, might be useful."

BOB, seeing that the 2 great swordmen practise asks if he could get some pointers on how to properly handle his sword.

His sword is big, looks heavy but is as light as a feather to the user. Also it has the enchanted ability to cut through anything, as well as being unbreakable. Only problem is that it's 3/4 of BOB's hight, making it realy big.

stop trying to put your self in a better position.

You, or your cherecter is curently down in the cave in a prison of hard cheese, I repeat only cheese. I give you this option so that you can chew your way out ang join this RP properly. If you go into your GOD symdrom then ppl will ignore your posts.

For now I think it best if you, FB, are free, or almost. If all must vote, I put my vote for freadom for the Outcast. I think that outcast would be both helpful to the quest and FB will stop posting, "can I join in" posts.

Fine, without the orb, though, he'll soon return to noral size. Hopefully he'll get out of his cheese-prison.

Outcast: Seems the only way out of here is to eat this cheese. YUK! I hate chedder cheese.

As the three vahnatai manage to reassert themselves, Vaitar-ka casts a stealth spell in order to hide himself. The three warriors then proceed to distract the group of adventurers. They are easily handled by the sword skills of SW and FD. Luckily, this allows Vaitar to make his escape out of the cave to the rest of the small vahnatai militia.

OOC: FB, I would suggest that your character stay small for now, as it will prevent you from having him join combat, and allow him to move through areas that aren't accessible to other members of the party. For example, small windows and cells won't be able to stop your character, and the fact that you are the size of a large rat means that you can hide easily in shadows. I should also remind you that you have no weapons, and can't even lift any normal sized weapons at the moment.

IC: Quietly muttering a spell, Nicos gains the ability to see heat. Scanning around, he sees the trail of the lone vahnatai mage who fled the area. "This way!" He strides off and immediately trips over a stalagtite. Muttering, he stands back up and makes his way carefully, keeping track of the fading trail left by the creature.

Ugh....Outcast wasn't originally 8 in tall. The orb shrunk him. What happens to something when it loses it's only scource of energy? It's destroyed. So if Outcast is out of his orb, he grows.

Unless anyone here is willing to break him out of his cheese-prison, and then put him back in the orb, you're welcome to.

-Oh, Outcast wasn't aware all he had is a cloak, a sling(His big rubber band.), pants, boots, and other things that can be found on anyone, until now.
