[hider=QUOTE][quote=@Shadow Dragon] He spreads his wings, taking off, and flying out of the castle. He soars through the air, heading for Tinkertown. [i]I wonder what he would do if he found out I was raising a Podling to overthrow him?[/i] He flies over the town, and roars out a challenge, the air vibrating from the force. He circles above the town, his massive shadow sweeping over everything, sending the villagers into a panic.

When Draygon's raven showed she felt like she was finally about to get her chance to find whatever secret the bastard was keeping. She had been Draygon's top lieutenant before Jabber came along, and she'd been furious ever since he took her position. She hated it that he somehow sniffed out the Crystallis sword and brought it to their master, and now they were being sent to harass those old wizards which was both annoying and dangerous, well, dangerous for some. Jabber didn't seem too hasty about finding the so called "Pod-creatures" either, and that made Annabelle suspicious. She crouched in the brush where she had been hiding and watched Jabberwocky form into the black dragon of his monstrous state and fly to the south. Annabelle smiled, he would not be coming back soon. She casually sauntered up to the house and knocked on the front door. [color=ed1c24]"Housekeeping!"[/color] she called. When no one answered she pushed the door with her incredible strength and as its supports gave way the door fell flat with a dusty thud. She was humming to her self and smiling as she skipped into the old house and looked around. [color=ed1c24]"Jabber Jabber,"[/color] she ruminated, [color=ed1c24]"ya sure don't have any taste for decoratin' do ya'? You need is a woman!"[/color] She ran a finger along a dusty shelf and made [i]Yuck![/i] face as she wiped it on her pants, "...or a butler." She pranced around the rooms, looking at papers and through drawers, trying to find anything incriminating or even interesting; she found nuthin! Jabber was a stubby old boring nobody who didn't even have dirty pictures lying around, some kind of villain, huh? She got to the library on the base floor. On one side it had a fire place with a rug and two chairs, across the room on the other side was a wall of books behind a large, oaken table with candelabras on either side. Annabelle slowly traipsed around the table and looked at the books, her nimble fingers gliding over the dusty bindings. She walked over to the fireplace and inspected the chairs, the embers, the floe to see if there was something hidden there, there was nothing. She walked back to the table and scrunched her face in frustration. [color=ed1c24]"God, you're such an Asshole!!"[/color] She said and she stomped her boot on the wooden plank floor. The sound echoed. Her eyes went wide and the corners of her mouth turned up in a smile, [color=ed1c24]"OoooOOOohhh! What have we here?[/color]" she said. She bent down and proceeded to punch her way through the floor boards, wood chips flew from her fists and got stuck in her hair; her face had taken a maniacal twist. [color=ed1c24]"Well well Jabber, maybe you're more interesting than I thought."[/color] Under the floor between the oak table and the wall of books was a ladder going down into a tunnel that Annabelle was sure would lead somewhere interesting. She jumped down the shaft and let herself drop all the way to the very bottom, maybe 50 meters (150 feet) from the surface, give or take. She looked around and saw that the tunnel pointed east, towards the water. She figured she might be deep enough to be underneath the water, but there was only one way to find out; she began jogging down the tunnel. She came upon the end of the tunnel as it opened into a large cavern. At the far side of the cavern there was some sort of antique mecha panel that had blinking lights and whirling colors, and above all that was a large map on some sort of display that looked like it might've been the entire world. This was good, but not enough to get Jabber in trouble. Annabelle dropped from the edge of the tunnel and moved quietly to the shadows. Then she saw the girl. The young girl was about 20 meters (60 feet) ahead of her. She was walking around the corner near the blinking machine carrying something that might have been food. She sat down at the blinky mecha thing and began to eat, it was food. Annabelle smiled and watched for a moment, surveying the situation. The young girl's face was wrapped in some sort of bandage, Annabelle suspected that she was blind. And to top that all off, she was pretty sure that this girl, was a Podling. [/cell][/row] [/table] [hider=SYNOPSIS] Annabelle is one of Draygon's lieutenants who is jealous of Jabber's rise. She stalked Jab's place and found Ruby. Shadow Dragon- as you prepare a post keep in mind the distances between our players and the power level of Annabelle. Ruby is a badass, but don't play her like she's the baddest mother-effer in the galaxy, if she wins this confrontation, let's make it a solid win. [/hider]
