[h1] Interview One _________________________________[/h1] [i][b]“He’s not much larger than average height I’d say. It’s weird you ask about him. I’ve always known him to be somewhat reclused. When outsiders come around here it’s usually to investigate some urban legend we have floating around.”[/b] [indent]“Interesting, tell me what you can about this creature around here.”[/indent] [b]“So you want to know about ‘it’ eh?”[/b] [indent]“Of course”[/indent] [b]“It's fabled to ride a black steed through the countryside and whenever it stops a mortal man dies. An Angel of Death who’s worthy of dread; dressed all in black and lacking a head. In its possession is a spine that he'll use as a whip. In the other a scythe that will cut to the quick. If you chance to observe it you may be struck blind and still, think yourself lucky that he left you behind. If it pulls on the reins and it finds you outdoors your heart will stop dead and will beat nevermore. There are buckets of blood where the Dullahan rides. On all Hallows Eve, you had best be inside.”[/b] [indent]“That sounds like an old Celtic tale.”[/indent] [b]“Well, it is.”[/b] [indent]“I want genuine facts.”[/indent] [b]“Well, I suppose I could inform you more for some spare change.”[/b] [indent]“Seriously…Fine.”[/indent] [b]“Well, Gold is the wooden stake and silver bullet to Dullahans. Despite everyone knowing this, one very much lives on. I’ve seen it do things. Incredible things. Things no human could dream of.”[/b] [indent]“Well, spit it out.”[/indent] [b]“I suppose I ought to begin with its abilities”[/b][/i] [i][b][h3]Incineration/Intellect[/h3][/b][/i] [i]“[b]I’ve seen it do just about anything with fire. They say its manipulation of the element is limited only by its imagination” [/b] [indent]“I would imagine it thinks on entirely different level than us mortal folks, huh?”[/indent] [b]“Wouldn’t count it out”[/b][/i] [b][i][h3]Darkness[/h3][/i][/b] [i][b]“For sure its powers are linked with darkness and perhaps more. I think they’re somehow physical. It’s scary how I’ve seen shadows leap off the ground and grab objects, animals, and people even. Fairly large ones too!”[/b] [indent]“How often do you see it?”[/indent][/i] [b][i][h3]Pace[/h3][/i][/b] [i][b]“I’ve seen it once or twice, at least I think so. Sometimes it's here and gone in the blink of an eye. Amazing huh.”[/b] [indent]“You ever saw it talk?”[/indent][/i] [b][i][h3]Curses[/h3][/i][/b] [i][b]“Don’t you know it’s a bad omen to even encounter them. Ya think I’m crazy enough to try to converse with it?”[/b] [indent]“What if I told you I suspect someone in your town was secretly this creature and I'm trying to uncover out who?”[/indent][/i] [b][i][h3]Deception[/h3][/i][/b] [i][b]"I'd say it couldn't be. Then I would say you have a deathwish. Well, that would explain why we have so much bad luck around here...”[/b][/i] [h1] Interview Two _________________________________[/h1]
