The Roc Attack Music

A bird unlike the others in the sky soared high above the trio of fairies. The creature was huge, its enormous wings casting a shadow over the tops of the trees as it glided high over the terrain. With a terrifying wingspan of 80 feet, she commanded the sky with her foreboding presence. Her body was mostly brown in color while having blue feathers on her head. Her yellow beak was large and hooked in a similar manner to an eagle. Avalians knew this creature as a Roc, infamous for their intimidating size and intelligence.

The Roc was an expert predator in search of sustenance for her voracious offspring. It had been tirelessly searching the wilderness after another creature had encroached on their territory in a nearby mountain.

Through the canopy of the trees, her keen eyes noticed movement down below. The sunlight danced upon vibrant stands of magenta hair, creating an enchanting glint that beckoned the Roc’s curiosity. She began her descent gracefully, her powerful wings slowly beating against the wind. Once she caught sight of the source of the brilliance, she noticed there were three travelers moving below, unaware of the danger that lurked above. Finally, she had a potential meal large enough to satisfy her babies.

Her predatory instincts took hold and the gears in her head started spinning as her eyes narrowed with focused intent. She screeched as she extended her leg forward and flapped her massive wings causing extreme winds to blow at the three fairies. The screech had echoed through the forest as a warning to all creatures that would dare to cross its path.

Some of the leaves were separated in a way that the fairies could see the Roc above, its wingspan blotting out the sun and casting an ominous shadow over the three. Its massive talons were stretched, capable of crushing bones or grabbing any smaller creature with ease at a moment’s notice. The Roc’s talons seized hold of part of the trunk and it sank into the bark, and snapped a whole top portion of the tree off. Then, it dropped the portion of tree, letting it plummet down toward its prey.

Darius picked himself off the ground with a disgruntled grunt while Menzai replied to their answers. They were both off the mark, but Darius and Dante felt good about at least delivering somewhat acceptable answers. Darius glanced at Dante, quietly scheming his get-back. However, with Menzai’s instructions, it would have to wait. Besides, showing Dante up in magic use might be just the delight he needed. The whole thing about being professional with Menzai was a bit extra for the twins but they just figured the wolf man wanted to maintain his stoicism and continue to be seen as the wise, quiet teacher.

“Well, I learned this!” Dante piped up as he began to lift a large boulder half the size of a car with his magic that had been in their vicinity. “Bet you can’t do this Darius.” Darius was honestly impressed, and it showed as he stared wide-eyed up at the boulder.

“Wow, we got ourselves a big shot over here! Look out, dark elf king! My brother can pick up a big rock!” Darius teased. “But seriously, nice!” Darius rolled his shoulders as he paced in the small space as if he was warming up for something physical. Then he bounced on his toes. No other boulders around… Fuck. Still gotta make this look good. He continued his little routine before standing in a high crouch, his feet shoulder-width apart, and his hands raised up at chest level. “Get ready to rock and roll! Hahaha!” Darius mocked his brother once again before various stones in the area began to rise and gather around him. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, whoo! Eleven, twelve, thirteeeeen. Okay, one more. Fourteen! A bead of sweat rolled down Dairus’ cheek as he concentrated on lifting so many stones at once.

Dante laughed as he looked at Darius with a smirk. “Oh yeah, let’s do this!” He shouted as he shattered the boulder before quickly controlling the debris and fused the boulder back together, repairing it completely. Dante puffed his chest towards Darius. “Can ya beat that?”

“Please. ‘I Dante. I break big rock and…’” Darius was straining a bit but was still going to make his comeback. “‘And make small rocks. Then make big rock again.’ Watch the master!” Darius grinned with excitement as the stones around him began to revolve around him. It started slow but the revolving stones began to pick up speed. Darius crossed his arms across his chest with a cocky smirk as the stones continued their revolutions at speeds that would be adequate for defending him or inflicting damage on someone who got too close to him. “It’s all about finesse and style.” Darius explained before closing one of his hands in a fist and stopping the stones in place.

Dante sighed with a look of boredom towards his brother’s fancy showing of his magic “Yeah, don’t think so raw power is the way to go bro.” Dante replied but before Darius knew it the ground beneath him fell 3 feet.

“Shit! No!” Darius screamed as he suddenly fell. The stones hit the ground just as he did in a kneeling position. “Come on asshole, that’s fucked up!” Darius shouted as jagged spikes suddenly raised from the ground with light shaking in the area. It was an unintentional display of his magic due to his genuine anger toward his brother. “You wanna go?!” The ground below Darius raised back up but several feet higher. Standing up, he glared down at Dante. “Huh?!”

Dante looked up at his brother before turning and walking just out of range where his brother would lose control of the dirt he was on. “Look I'm Sorry. I think it's time to chill.”

Darius and Dante or Dante and Darius (depending on which brother you asked) had a lot to take upon arriving in Avalia. The idea of dying and being brought to a fantastical world that they thought could only be conjured up from a fictional story or television series. The twins were in silent disbelief, at least initially.

“We died?

“Didn’t you hear him? We’re fucking dead bro, this is some Isekai shit!”

“WE’RE FUCKING DEAD!!!”

It took a few moments to calm the two down and with time, they both considered the possibilities of this entire ordeal. First, they sorted out that they hadn’t actually died. Second, this whole Avalia situation thing might not be the worst that could have happened. They could have woken up in the fiery pits of hell instead. They also learned that their summoning was a bit of an anomaly as only one of them was meant to be summoned. This made both brothers wonder who obtained the power to control the element of earth in this world… Well, technically they argued over who would have it. This went on until both of them displayed the ability sparked by one of their tumultuous exchanges.

And though it was odd for either of them to see the odd appearance of the native Avalian races, the two grew used to it rather easily due to their immersion in many types of fantasy works on Earth. Meeting Menzai, however, was not filled with the warm greeting they might have hoped for.

Once in Guarav Village, they were met with the opposite of what Menzai offered. The village of dog-people were all extremely friendly, even if they did keep their distance at times… save for the children who they had no qualms interacting with. Their training was mostly physical to start which was right up their alley. Both were in their physical primes and even turned some training exercises into competition. They even added more whenever they didn’t feel like they had enough.

Menzai was not the only person they had regular interactions with during their first week in Avalia. There was also Phia, the high-energy and extraordinarily curious forest fairy. She had been quite interested in the lives of the brothers, wanting to know which plants or animals existed on their homeworld. Phia had spent hours hanging out with them and the three had even gone out collecting various objects in the forest including bones to make crafts. As soon as she could, she showed Dante and Darius her cave filled with her collection. She had seemed to collect all sorts of trinkets and items such as bones, crystals, shiny stones, and other random objects that were strewn on shelves made out of branches. There were even little homes she had created for different bugs. While Dante found the cave a wonderful menagerie of treasure, Darius found it a bit strange though endearing. The trio also enjoyed some creature-watching.

Today, the twins found themselves in the company of Ulyeses, the captain of the hunters in Guarav. For the short time, the twins were with the large demihuman, they could honestly admit they would have rather have him be their guardian due to how personable he was. Plus, he looked like he could take on anyone within the village without much trouble, at least until they watched Menzai swiftly slash the larger man. As Menzai spilled Ulyeses’ blood, Darius raised his eyebrows in surprise before whispering to Dante.

“Menzai’s a savage. Did you see that?”

”Yeah, bro what the fuck. Is he just gonna slash at us?”

“One way to find out,” Darius shot Dante a cocky smirk as he had mischief on his mind. “Ay wittle guardian, you ready to get training started?! Come on. Let’s do this!” Darius exclaimed.

“Yeah! Wittle guardian, let’s get ready to rock and roll!”

Darius's Personality:

Darius's Personality

Darius is a social butterfly to the max. He’ll speak to anyone! They could have two heads, extra arms, fewer limbs than normal, or a really distracting lazy eye. Darius will talk to them. The guy is also rather selfless, always giving to those less fortunate than himself. He believes the team is only as strong as its weakest member, so he always makes sure those in his company are well-equipped. One thing that breaks this trend is when he gets into a competitive mood. He can sometimes become blind to others’ needs or take things too far despite what might be planned after him going all out. Darius is mostly kind to those he doesn’t know while he teases and lightly bullies those he’s very close to. His presence is typically warm to others as Darius tries to remain positive most of the time.
⋆ Darius is a big hugger. Physical touch is like a boost for Darius to connect to others. When it comes to trust, Darius trusts others until they break it with him. He’s the type to give others a chance despite their reputation.

⋆ Darius can become angered if something unfortunate happens to someone close to him or if he’s frustrated by something he cannot control. Although rare, negative occurrences that Darius feels emotional about can strongly change his thinking on certain topics. Darius isn’t the most patient person. He strikes first as he perceives this as getting an advantage. Darius will complain if he has to wait for longer than he believes is necessary. Now is he brave? He can be sure. Darius isn’t afraid of the normal able-bodied person but put an 8ft roided-looking orc with a battle ax in front of him. Darius can cool under pressure when dealing with most normal stresses but throw something unfamiliar in front of him and he can doubt himself. One thing Darius is known for doing is talking himself through his problems aloud. Despite his shortfalls in reacting to stressors, Darius’ reaction speed is exceptional. He’s quick on his feet and isn’t one to let up his guard just because he feels he has the upper hand in a confrontation.

Darius isn’t a traditional genius as advanced math and science escape him most of the time. “Yeah, leave that to the nerds.” However when it comes to combat Darius’ mind flourishes with techniques, post-combat adaption, and training approaches. Darius never intends to manipulate anyone, though he usually makes friends quite easily. His banter with Dante can be a little off-putting to some but most will forgive such instances when he demonstrates his bright outlook and charitable deeds. Sense of humor? Darius thinks he hits the middle ground with humor though he can usually be quite funny unintentionally.

Dante's Personality:

Dante's Personality

Dante is quite extroverted especially around Darius as he wants to be someone his brother can look up to. He is not selfish and will go to far lengths to help those in danger or those he cares about. Dante is kind but when it comes down to his job he can be considered mean or cruel depending on how you look at things. Dante is willing to sacrifice himself if it means saving or protecting someone close to him.

Dante has a calm demeanor for the most part but can lose his temper if he fails to do something or is unable to help in a situation he feels he should be helping. Dante can be patient in some circumstances but for the most part, is quite impatient and very much a go-getter. Dante is brave being an ex-soldier and mercenary. Braveness was drilled into him to fight for the things he loves and cares about. He is sometimes overcome with anxiety thinking about something happening to Darius or failing to fit the perfect image he was to his family for him to look up to. Dante is a quick reactor due to the training and work required for his occupation.

He has over-average intelligence but that is mostly in combat, survival, and street smarts. Dante can be charismatic when he wants to be; he can chameleon in situations as he was trained for covert operations. He has a mild sense of humor but it isn’t perfect. Well, Dante is sane for the most part he did develop minor PTSD from when he was in combat for the military and mercenary work. Dante is usually more energized when competing or in combat but outside of that he is a lot more chill and relaxed.

Background

Darius Occupation Mixed Martial Arts Fighter Current Equipment: Shot glass	Dante Occupation Mercenary, Marine Current Equipment: Shot glass, cell phone, and a knife in his pocket.

The Blackbourn History

The Blackbourn brothers had always been active on their feet since… since they could walk. These twins were always in competition. Foot races, pushup contests, one on one pick-up games, and even a few unfriendly fights. So it was no surprise to anyone that they both chose career paths that fulfilled that primal urge they both had. The weird thing was that while Dante enlisted in the armed forces, Darius was hard focused on mixed martial arts.

Dante grew up with high expectations from his parents, Eric and Monica. Eric served in the Marine Corps and had his foot halfway in the door for most of his childhood, home at times, away at others. His mother was home with Dante and his brother Darius often and she was a very nice lady. They were momma’s boys. He had expectations, mostly from his father, who would call even when he was away to make sure Dante was getting good grades. Dante succeeded in everything people asked through sheer anxiety of failing and not wanting to let people down.

Darius hadn’t been the best in his weight class but his competitiveness and innate talent made him quite the contender. He’d won a title, but he also lost it too. In this world, he knew he wouldn’t win everything and that failure only happened to those who gave up on themselves. Most of his life at this point was a cycle of training, fighting a match, partying and indulging in vices, and meeting people to strike promotion deals with or sign autographs for. Despite some of the reclusiveness he had to practice, Darius always enjoyed connecting with others whenever he could. Even his rivals liked him. Still, the closest person to him was always the hardest to reach. Dante had entered the military service, requiring him to go on many extended tours to fight. To fight in a different way than he had. While Darius fought for sport and his fans, Dante fought for his life and the lives of others.

Dante joined the army when he was 18 as an infantryman. He wound up deploying twice but left the service after his second term. Upon his exit, Dante joined a mercenary group to operate militarily without the restrictions the army placed on him. His mercenary work was kept secret from his family. To their knowledge, he was still enlisted in the army.

Still, the two respected and loved each other just as much as when they grew up together. It was no surprise when the two planned a vacation getaway in Bali, renting out a villa, the two felt they could conquer the world when they were together. Just as they took a celebratory toast an unexpected sinkhole that was meant to end the journeys of two Blackbourns earned them a one-way ticket to a place called Avalia. Too bad that the problem was that it had already been conquered.

Background

Occupation

Scientist

Current Equipment: He carries a sword, vials of potions, a dagger

Current Location:Malthemoor Research Facility

Brief History:

Zalthraxis grew up in the Avian City, a district of Roshmi. He was the only child born to wealthy parents who were world renown for their scientific contributions. They were pleasant people and their life was peaceful. Zalthraxis had always been too smart for his own good, however, and would often manipulate others around him, even his own parents. For this reason, his parents never really knew the extent of his malicious personality. Zalthraxis spent much of his childhood dedicated to following in his parents’ footsteps, eager to achieve the greatness they had in the realm of science. He even wanted to surpass them.

Into his adulthood, Zalthraxis had not experienced any hardship. His life had been peaceful and his clever mind had enabled him to easily climb the ladder of the scientific community. He specialized in medical and psychological research. Many medicinal inventions can be accredited to his name. The first 290 years of his life were spent in this way. By the time the war had begun, Zalthraxis had made himself a name known by all in the medical field. His name was found in textbooks in schools and he had won multiple awards.

When the war had come around finally, an idea had dawned on Zalthraxis. He decided he could use it as a once in a lifetime opportunity to solidify himself at an even higher status in the hierarchy of the new world that would follow the war. So, he went to the dark elf king with his idea. He proposed the idea of a biological weapon which, once made, ended up playing a huge part in the dark elves’ victory. It is a big part of why they were able to win after five years.

After the war, Zalthraxis presented the dark elf king with another proposal known as The Dusk Project. King Zanithel was quick to give the green light to the project after the massive success of Zalthraxis’s first idea. It was initiated only months after the war. The Dusk Project was a process in which other species, specifically fairies, are pushed towards a similar evolution to that of dark elves. The process involved extensive hours of torture as a means of pushing the fairies to the limit where’d they feel their most negative and darkest emotions. After they were finished being tortured to the point of exhaustion, they were attached to breathing apparatus and subsequently placed in large tubes. These large tubes were composed of water, raw dark mana crystal dust, and dark magic input hourly by powerful dark elf mages.This process took an indefinite amount of time from until the subject died or was completed.

Since the dawn of The Dusk Project, King Zanithel had been providing Zalthraxis whatever resources he needed to keep the project moving, whether it was elves or materials. Zalthraxis
would bring many elves with him to attack smaller fairy settlements and kidnap young fairies. He even was involved with the attack on the Millinia family years ago. Zalthraxis was able to successfully take back some of the offspring.

Once he had captured fairies, he’d proceed to torture them. The pain would begin even before he could even bring them back to the Malthemoor Kingdom. He put every fiber in his being into showing him as much pain and torment as he could possibly come up with. Some of them had initially died at first, but quickly the successes began to outnumber the failures. Once they had become his perfect creations, their torment would come to a halt and he’d suddenly shower them with kindness. Zalthraxis would treat them as if they were his own children, but really he saw them as his most prized collectibles.

His goal for The Dusk Project is to create a world where all creatures succumb to darkness.

Hunter's Game (Small Private Group)

Nikolai Maximillion

When Latrell brought up the issue of who to kill first, Nikolai turned to face the man with a smile, “ No need to be concerned. With me here, both targets will be easily squashed. Just drink up lad! Let’s have a little fun. ” As far as Nikolai was concerned, they had been given easy money. This mission would be a piece of cake.

Alice also decided to keep up the serious conversation. “Are you that scared of a lizard, Alice? We can deal with that stuff after we have some fun and get to know each other more.” He nudged her with his elbow and gave a wink.

She had asked everyone to introduce themselves, which at least would be interesting. He looked at the masked man that had been told to start off. The guy apparently did not even know his own name. Nikolai figured he had some sort of brain damage, especially when he requested to be called “fluffy” or “fox.” Fluffy proceeded to pull out a pipe and start blowing pink smoke at all of them.Nikolai waved her hand in front of his face, trying to dispel the smoke, but it seemed to swallow them all. "Well, I guess we know who's bringing the party favors," He quipped. "Could say we got a party animal in our hands.”

After a moment, he then added, “ Also listen dude I don’t know what you are trying to say, Fluffy, but you are gonna have to speak normally.” Even though, it seemed ridiculous that blowing smoke was all Fluffy had to offer, Nikolai did see the merit in it. It could come in handy especially in a situation they needed to escape.

As the introductions continued, Nikolai did note that Adelaide had brought up a good point that reptilian in nature could mean a lot of things. Still, he couldn’t bother to be worried about it, not when he was surrounded by so much alcohol.

Nikolai took the opportunity of silence to dramatically slam his hands on the table as he stood up to take the attention. With a drink in his hand, he leaned a foot up on the seat and flashed them one of his famous dazzling smiles, “Well I am Nikolai Maximillion as you all probably know. Yes, I am even more attractive in person!” With his free hand, he pointed to the glaive strapped to his back, “Yes. That is the legendary glaive of Nikolai Maximillion. The one that killed a Beholder. Don’t faint, ladies. And don’t you dare faint either Fluffy!”

He grinned at Adelaide playfully and then readdressed his gaze to the group, "I don't like to brag, but I've been adventuring for quite some time now, and let me tell you, I've faced more beasts than I can count. Some people say I'm lucky, but I like to think that my perfected skills and my wits have something to do with it."He paused for a moment as if considering something. “ "Speaking of skills, I'm also pretty good at drinking, dancing, and charming the pants off beautiful ladies." He flashed a playful look at Alice and Adelaide.“ "But don't worry, I won't steal your hearts, at least not until after this job is done."

He then raised his glass in a mock toast. "So, here's to a successful mission, plenty of loot, and lots of good stories to tell afterward. Cheers, my friends!"

Marciano inspected the merchandise checking for any signs of illness. He did not speak as he circled the line of men like a vulture, eying them up and down thoroughly. He had an experienced eye for this; anyone could tell off the bat. It was most interesting to him hat they had been brought up unshackled. Had this man expected him to parade them through town? Even if this crew was confident that the prisoners would be submissive, Marciano was not. They were pirates after all.

” Shackle them, Get them to the holding area.” Marciano had an air of authority unusual for someone of his standing. A few of Edin’s men broke off and climbed aboard, dragging shackles that they had been holding the entire time. Marciano knew better than to not come prepared.

As the guards moved in to shackle the prisoners, Marciano stood back and watched with a cold detachment. Time and time again, he had been in such a position, gathering new toys for the playroom. It had been a long time since he had felt sympathy for them. It was not as if he had felt hatred toward them. All kinds of circumstances could force even the best of men to piracy. Moreover, he was not one to stand on a moral high ground. Marciano felt nothing for them, as if they were simply objects.

The clanking of the metal restraints echoed as the entire line had finally been shackled together. Marciano looked towards Sajan-dekh. “I thank you for the gifts. I assure you they will be well taken care of.” He stated neutrally. Without another word, Marciano turned and walked away, snapping his fingers and signaling for everyone to follow. The guards exchanged a wary glance before one of them stepped behind the line of prisoners, while the others flanked them, prodding them forward.

Sjan-dehk would be able to watch the group move north toward the warehouses. Meanwhile, Oswald and some of the other guards remained to take care of the matter of the ship.

As Oswald stepped aside and offered his sincere gratitude to Sjan-Dehk, Marciano stepped forward with a sense of purpose. With a dignified demeanor, he addressed the leader, "If I may, I request that the individuals or objects in question be presented for my inspection. I desire to thoroughly examine what it is that we shall be working with. Are these prisoners a gift as well?"

Marciano wanted to get a firsthand look at the individuals or objects in question, to ensure that they were suitable for his plans and that he had all the necessary information at his disposal.

A dark-skinned man with black hair and a mustache appeared at the docks, Edin’s guards following behind. He was well-dressed in a suit. King Edin had also sent another staff member to handle the purchasing of the ship. What his function was mattered not to Marciano. He was here for the prisoners and that was all that concerned him.

As he walked, the creaking of the wooden dock echoed beneath his leather shoes. The sight of men practicing drills caught his attention, and he wondered if they would be disappointed to not see King Edin. Clearing his throat, he spoke in a confident and clear voice. "Greetings, King Edin has sent us on his behalf." The professional mannerisms of his tone and body language made it seem as though he was one of King Edin's right-hand men, which Sjan-Dehk and his crew might assume.

“Hello all. I welcome to Caesonia. My name is Oswald Williams. I am here to inspect the ship on behalf of the King.” A blonde-haired man in a high-ranking uniform stepped forward to also greet the crew.
