[center][h3]REX[/h3][/center] [indent]Footsteps roared from outside, reverbing like thunder in the sky. Closer and closer they resounded, drawing nearer the guildhall, until the main doors erupted open with a mighty [i]crash[/i], buckling and nearly falling off of their hinges. For any other guildhall, this may have been cause for worry; but several weeks after Rex had shown up, Estival had grown accustomed to his boisterous arrivals.[/indent] [indent]A newcomer may have been disturbed by such an eccentric character’s entrance, but the regulars paid not even a passing glance. The beast who just nearly broke down the guildhalls entrance wore simple cloth pants; but more interesting than what Rex wore was what he didn’t -- that is, anything other than pants. Though retaining some aspects of the lithe frame of a teenager, the muscular physique revealed by his absent garments was nonetheless a spectacle.[/indent] [indent]On his back, incorrectly sheathed in sheepskin and haphazardly slung over his back with leather straps was a comically gargantuan steel sword. His blade measured well over three feet of sharpened metal, and perhaps even rivaled the height of some smaller adventurers present.[/indent] [indent]His black hair was messy and unwashed; and on either side of his head extended two fluffy but equally unkempt ears. Even his tail, weaving out of his trousers through some mechanism, was not all that clean. Admittedly, this dog was overdue for a bath.[/indent] [indent]Standing head and shoulders above most others in the guild hall, the Hundi regarded the room before him. Doing so, his tail began to wag. Rex was excited to be in the guild hall. Though should one know Rex, they could conclude it much more productive to list any time he was [i]not [/i] excited to be in the guild hall -- or was not excited doing anything, for that matter.[/indent] [indent]His eyes settled on the quest board, and without a moment’s hesitation Rex marched over. With powerful strides he waltzed through the hall, artfully avoiding any inconsiderate hallway manners, until he was nearly in front of the notices. In spite of his careful maneuvering, Rex had failed to see a much shorter human standing in front of the notices through the bustle of the guildhall.[/indent] [indent]By the time the crowd parted around the quest board to let him through and Rex noticed Sophie, it was already too late. The most he could do was blurt[/indent] [indent][color=B83345]”Watch out!”[/color][/indent] [indent]...before stumbling right into the knight.[/indent] [@VitaVitaAR]
