Tales of the Crimson Legion - Galaxy at War

Name: Sventillus Septimus Hamkito

Alias: Sven (becasue yeah not typing that name ever again)

Gender: Male

Species: Vandrell

Appearance:


6'9", 300 lbs, blue lights for eyes

Age: 78

Equipment:

-Plasma Rifle (Shown in picture above)
-Reinforced Titanium armoring
-Shotgun Knees - 12 gauge shot 6 rounds per knee. (more useful than it sounds and awesome)
-MACK - Sven's assistance droid. The little guy serves as a second pair of hands for Sven and will usually stay on the Legion's End while Sven is away on mission to monitor the ship and its instruments

Personality:

Being relatively young for an "Ascended" Vandrell Sven is a bit of a smart ass. He has a very sarcastic personality and tries to crack a joke whenever possible. But he is friendly and easy to get along with if you can stand to deal with him.

Bio:

Sventillus Septimus Hamkito was born 38th in line to take the Vandrell throne, but with his great grandfather being an Ascended this meant little to nothing as it would probably be at least two thousand years before he would even have a shot at the throne. knowing this Sven gave little care to being groomed as a prince and decided to live his life to his own will. Even as a young lad he was very interested with tinkering with things and would tear anything he could get his hands on apart just so he could put it back together.

As Sven grew so did his passion and by the age of 8 he was a decent mechanic and even opted into early military service. He would spend most of the rest of his natural life aboard Hissho War Ships serving as one of the live in mechanics to keep the fleet moving. This time of service included the First Contact War in which Sven quickly found out he was a terrible shot and really had no business being on the front lines of a war. But that didn't discourage the little Vandrell and he continued to take on assignments near the front where his skills as a mechanic would be most needed. In one battle near the end of the war Sven found his second calling. Pinned behind enemy lines their ship shot down Sven did all the could to make the ship airworthy again, once the ship was in a condition where they could flee Sven ended up having to fly the ship as the pilot had been killed and the soldiers either couldn't or were to busy keeping the humans at bay. His first flight was glorious a quick shot from behind enemy lines saving 8 soldiers and bringing them back to allied territory. But unfortunately his first landing was a crash and although the crew survived Sven was gravely injured.

The next time Sven woke he was an Assended his consciousness transferred into a robotic body. And at the young age of 27 at that. Within a year the war would end although Sven would never make his way back to the front. Instead after recovering he would spend the next few years learning to truly pilot a ship using his robotic enhancements to improve his skills quickly.

Later on Sven would join Kain's Wrath as a pilot and mechanic for some of their ships. It was there that Sven meet the curious human Silas and the two would grow to be fast friends. And it was Sven who stole a ship to rescue Silas after Kain had found the Merc skimming Credits from jobs and the two made their way to Human space to get away from Kain's reach. It has been 9 years since then and luckily Kain hasn't sent anyone after the two yet, and they even have managed to make a pretty reputable mercenary company of their own. But if there is anything Sven has learned in his last 51 years within his mechanical body it is he is still a horrible shot.

Relationships:

Silas - "Silas is the same crazy old bastard he has ever been. Wouldn't still be following him around if he hadn't pulled my ass out of the fire countless times. But the old fool it to trusting thinking everyone he hires will follow him to hell and back."

Gerry - "One of our more interesting companions. He is smarter than he looks and is quite interesting to have a conversation with. Note to self I really have to track down a Garundin translator program so I can really pick his brain."

Cyne - "Reminds me of some of the old Hisshian boys from my old unit. He is good in a fight and can easily hold his own in most situations. And he has been around for quite a while longer than most others. Why did Silas have to eject that damned Hamster...."

Gaz - "How has that walking death trap not died yet? Crazy in a fight and doesn't seem to have many marbles rattling around in that head of his. But I shouldn't make him angry saw him rip that one guy in half once... I don't want that to happen to me."

Macklyn - "A tinkerer after my own heart. Although he went for modifying things instead of fixing them its close enough. Maybe I should have him try to make a few upgrades for my armor?"

Tales of the Crimson Legion - Galaxy at War

Name: Silas Cross

Alias: Shade

Gender: Male

Species: Human

Appearance:


6'2", 190lbs, Athletic build, Black Hair, Brown Eyes

Age: 42

Equipment:

-Shade's Skin - A custom set of Hybrid armor providing protection and flexibility equipped with a small jet pack to allow Silas more maneuverability on the battlefield
-Assault Carbine - Cartridge style rifle using 7.62 rounds
-Death's Grasp - Custom Cartridge pistol sporting 50 caliber rounds
-Plasma Knife

Personality:

As an old soldier and battle hardened merc Silas has spent the majority of his life on one battlefield or another. But he didn't get here by luck Silas is calculating and cool headed preferring to plan out things beforehand and always has a Plan B in case things go bad. But Silas is not cold he values his Comrades willing to abandon a mission to save one of his own and making a point to never leave a man behind if at all possible. Silas cares for the Legion and even has a plaque in his room naming the fallen so that they will never be forgotten. He can come off as very direct and isn't known to directly lie to a comrade's face.

Bio:

Silas was born on Mars to a poor family. While growing up every day was a struggle to survive and it wasn't long before he had to turn to thievery to even survive, and before long the young boy had a long rap sheet with the local police. And by the age of fourteen he was on his way to juvenile hall, but instead of his sentence Silas choose an alternative and was signed up for the Military Academy. And for the first time in his life Silas had a purpose in life and something to achieve.

During his years at the SSA Military Academy Silas made a big impression. He worked himself nearly to death training to become a soldier leaving his peers behind and impressing his supervisors. When he was 18 Silas graduated the Academy with top marks ready to do his finest for the SSA. And he would do that for the next eight years.
Over his eight years of service in the SAA army Silas served on the front line in many small battles. He even served in the two years of skirmishes against the Hissho, over the control of some outlying colonies that were far from worth the loss of life to hold them. And in the end the SSA were defeated leaving the colonies to the Hissho. Although he had been doubting the SSA already, the loss of the colonies after so much blood shed just didn't feel right. There were so many opportunities to reduce casualties and save civilians, but his orders always seemed to be to kill never to help. The SSA's disregard for life didn't sit well with Silas and he soon left the SAA and disappeared off the grid.

Silas spent the next 7 years working for the Kain's Wrath Mercenary company in Collective space. During this time he learned about alien cultures and spent time learning their tactics. His time in Kain's Wrath took Silas back to his days of childhood as the mercenary group was little more than thugs on a galactic scale. And after his 7 years Silas had a bit of a falling out with Kain's Wrath made his way back into UGC space ready to return to human society.

But Silas didn't return alone he came back to the UGC with Sven, a Vandrell Merc that he meet while in Kain's Wrath and sided with Silas during his argument with Kain. The two of them would become the founding members of the Crimson legion and would spend the next 9 years building the Mercenary group from the ground up. And under Silas' lead the Crimson Legion has become one of the most well known Mercenary groups in UGC space.

Relationships:

Sven - "That old hunk of Junk is probably one of the best pilots around, that and a damn good mechanic without him Legion's End would be a derelict by now. He can be a bit annoying at times but it is meant in a good way. Really have to get him to download a damned targeting program for his main body."

Gerry - "Luckily he is straightforward, if that old gorilla talked in riddles I would never figure out what he meant. That said his Straightforwardness makes it hard for him to lie strait to your face and you can take his comments and opinions at face value. That said he is strong and will do what he needs to in order to complete the mission."

Cyne - "That kid is a soldier at his core. Probably seen things he doesn't want to talk about... But then again who hasn't. That being said he is one of the good ones and you can count on him when he is needed. Flexible in a fight and willing to change tactics on the go. But never mention his Hamster "Mr. Squeaky" I really didn't know it was there..."

Gaz - "Gaz's reputation alone has brought in more potential contracts than I would of ever thought. He is nearly a monster on the battlefield and as long as I can keep him reigned in he is a valuable asset. That being said he has shown a sort of Honor in his fighting, never leaving a wounded man behind even throwing his massive armored hide in the way of incoming fire. He is definitely more trustworthy than most of his kind, but then again a cat is more trustworthy than normal Fungai."

Macklyn - "The rookie knows how to shoot that's for sure. Don't know if he has ever really been part of a team and it seems he still is looking out for himself more than the good of the group. Hopefully that will change, he could really become a valuable asset if he decides to stick around."

Tales of the Crimson Legion - Galaxy at War

Hello and welcome to The Crimson Legion. An elite group of mercenaries free from the ties of any Galactic Faction and work to make the galaxy a better place. Operating outside the law and taking any mission they feel requires their special touch. They are known to accomplish any mission no matter the odds. But as the galaxy starts to crumble can they stop it all from falling apart?

Galactic History

It has been 50 years since humanity first meet an alien species changing the galaxy forever. After a hostile first encounter where Humanity tried to show its might to the galactic stage they have been at least partially accepted by our fellow residence in the Galaxy. Things had been improving and recently Humanity was even offered a spot within the Collective, A Galaxy Wide governing body controlled by a council of alien races. But this invitation caused a spark.

The Sol System Alliance who had long been seen as the leader of the UGC pushed to have one of their admirals be chosen as the human representative putting the military's agenda ahead into the Collective. This was meet with fierce opposition from other factions within the UGC as humanity had caused the First Contact War and to press forward with military might would not win humanity many friends. This lead to the Kingdom of Tallos stepping forward putting up its own nomination, a diplomat who would try to uphold the peace within the galaxy. Things got heated in the UGC as factions were forced to choose a side and vote for the human representative. But one month before the decisive vote both candidates were found assassinated only a few days apart.

These Assassinations split the UGC as both sides blamed the other for their candidates assassination. In the past weeks tensions have grown worse there is talk of the KOT and their allied factions withdrawing from the UGC and reports that the SSA is readying its military in response to the KOT's withdrawal. Now humanity sits on the razor's edge of war this time against itself while the Collective watches seeing just what humanity will do when faced with such crises.

Notable Factions

The Collective - The Governing body for the entire Galaxy. Looking to uphold the peace and protect the weak of any Race that belongs to the collective. The Collective stands as a unified Galaxy solving disputes between the races by council vote, in which each race of the collective has one representative whom can vote on their races behalf. Although they tend to stay out of internal racial disputes they are closely watching the UGC to see which human faction will be bringing a representative to the table.

UGC - The United Galactic Conference plays the part of Earth's UN attempting to keep peace across the human controled galaxy, giving every faction big or small a voice in the galactic community and acting as a neutral party to oversee disputes. Established soon after mankind took to the stars and branched out of the Sol system.

SSA - The Sol System Alliance is one of the most powerful factions across the galaxy coming from the home of mankind. Highly militaristic and pushes to have military might and a strong presence be humanity's mark on the galaxy

KOT - The Kingdom of Tallos is a strong faction of the outer rim of explored space although small in size it is highly diplomatic giving the KOT a good relationship with some of the Alien races allowing them to trade and receive alien tech. This technological advantage has moved them forward allowing their smaller navy the ability to rival the SSA's and give them the chance to push a more diplomatic and peaceful human race.

(More to Come as introduced)

Intelligent Races

Players can be from any of the Intelligent Races, Also you can add your own as long as you provide me with the basic information needed to add it into this tab.

Humans
Originating Planet - Earth (Destroyed 500 years ago by an asteroid)
Appearance - You most likely are one so I won’t bother explaining this one
Average life span: 80-120 years
Description: The decedents of Earth. Although they have no distinguishing strength, they also have no distinguishing weakness (the jack of all trades)

Hissho
Originating Planet: Huygen
Appearance: Avian like humanoids that thrive on warfare
Male Hissho: Standing 6-8ft extremely muscular and agile
Female Hissho: Standing 6-7ft very thin and agile
Average life span: 50-60 years
Description: For much of their history, the Hissho lived as tribal hunters. Their constant warfare slowed their technological progress and path to civilization, but eventually, they, like many other races across the galaxy, united and reached for the heavens. Their cultural affinity to war makes them excellent soldiers and gives them an edge if engaged in melee combat. The Hissho serve primarily as the Collective's military arm and was the main force that fought with humans during the First Contact War.

Aranites
Originating Plant: Alcrolite
Appearance: A short humanoid alien who's skin color ranges from blues to deep purple. The race stands from 4-5 ft tall, and are physically weak, yet mentally strong
Average Life Span 150-200 years
Description: A very intelligent and magical race the Aranites were the first race to discover and master Magica. And since its discovery it has become an intergral part of their society and is used for daily life. This use of Magica was what lead the Aranites to the stars. Even today Aranites are the only race that can use Magica without an amplifying rune.

Vandrell
Originating Planet: Orbrian
Appearance: Normally a short alien race that required an environmental suit to survive anywhere outside their home planet. Although most Vandrell swap out their human bodies for mechanical bodies.
Average life spans: 40 in original bodies, near immortal in mechanical if maintained
Description: Vandrell society is devoted to learning, philosophy, exploring, and study. They view the universe not only with awe, but also as an intellectual challenge for them to accept. Optimistic, they hold full faith in scientific progress and technological advancement. This drive to advance lead them to space early on, as well as mechanical enhancements to their bodies. And these enhancements lead to full Cybernetic bodies to house their vital organs and extend their lives.

Garundin

Garundin’s are a fairly new player on the galactic stage, but even so they have already made their presence known as premier engineers, technicians and heavy assault troopers.

The Garundin home world of Eshan sits at the extreme outer edge of the ‘Goldilocks Zone’ created by their home star. Eshan itself is a high gravity world, with a surface gravity being just over three times standard, which produces very high atmospheric pressures as well as being largely made of carbon dioxide. This has led to an ecosystem that produces flora and fauna that are short, dense and in the case of the fauna, powerfully muscled.

Garundin culture, even know, it still tribal based; though now each tribal council sends a representative to the planetary Grand Council who then appoints representatives for Garundin affairs off-world. Within each tribe, life has always about working for the good of the tribe; work delegated, resources shared, the elderly and infirm tended to by all. While internal conflicts were rare, inter-tribal conflicts were almost constant. Tribes fighting over land, water, minerals, and stronger tribes conquering weaker ones; the centuries passed, the technology changed and improved, but the fighting went on.

One major difference between Garundin’s and other sentient species was their near total lack of development of ballistic weaponry or attempts at heavier than air flight; the dense atmosphere and high gravity made the energy expenditure for such things too great to be overly practical, so such ideas were of little use. All that changed during what became known as ‘The Fall’; 200 years ago, on the plains between three great tribes a starship crash landed, coming to rest near where all three territories met.

Garundin’s were never a people that looked ‘up’ much, but with this arrival they started to. Now they began to wonder what else may be out there; once they thought they were many tribes on one world, but now they realized they may be one tribe amongst many worlds. This realization rippled across Eshan and within only a few years many old tribal conflicts where cast aside for the good of the ‘Greater Tribe’.

All across Eshan, great thinkers and tinkerer flocked towards the newly founded, and rapidly growing, City of the Great Fall (Great Fall in common usage). Sadly the crew of the vessel didn’t survive the crash, something caused an inertial dampener failure and they most likely died before the ship even hit the atmosphere, but the automated systems did their best to bring it down relatively intact. With methodical care, the Garundin’s began to investigate, first the small parts they could safely remove, then as their knowledge grew, and they began to translate more of the off-world language, they began to dig into the ship proper.

By their nature, Garundin’s are a patient and practical people, so there was no rush to discover all there was to know in one lifetime; but they also took to the new technology and in a remarkable short amount of time, they went from an early industrial tech base, to launching their first heavier than air craft, which was also their first trans-atmospheric vessel in less than two generations. From there they expanded exponentially, moving into their home system, and exploring the celestial bodies they found there. By the time the Garundin’s made first contact with The Collective, ten years before Gerad’s birth, they had already successfully industrialized much of the system.
-
Physically, Garundin’s are a four armed, quadrupedal, mammalian species. They range in height from between 125 to 135 cm and generally weight in at between 160 and 200 kilograms. Though the high gravity of Eshan has led to a very thick atmosphere, the planets extreme range from the rather weak star means that even at the best of times, Eshan is a rather cool world. As a result Garundin’s still maintain a thick insulating layer of hair that covers everything but their faces, the palms of their hands and the soles of their feet.

They share a very similar facial appearance to Terran ‘gorillas’, with a heavy brow, flat nasal openings and a protruding jaw, though they lack the same elongated skull; as a result it’s not uncommon for humans to refer to them as ‘Spider-Gorillas’. Males and females are indistinguishable from each other unless one can actually see their reproductive organs; Garundin’s tell by pheromone traces that an individual produces.

Fungai

A species of seemingly low intellect who somehow achieved space flight, the Fungai are the brawlers of the galaxy. The smallest of the race start at 6'5" with the tallest approaching 8'. Their weights are equally large, continuing to grow until their dying breath. They are true warriors in every sense of the word after having a homeworld with minimal resources, meaning there was a constant fight for them. Fortunately when the Fungai achieved space flight they found enough resources to allow their species to survive. However, deep down, rooted in their very being is the will to fight and that makes them very worthwhile mercenaries and soldiers. Their sheer size allows them to strap several inches of armour to their torso's making them walking tanks.

In terms of their biology, there is no split gender although they would usually be referred to as he/his given their masculine voices. They reproduce by releasing spores into the air as they approach natural death. These spores pollinate with any vegetation it can find which then mutates and grows the eggs the Fungai hatch from. They can live up to 200 years but due to their preferred choice of work, few live to that point. Due to their fungal nature, the only real way to keep them down is to take out the brain which is located behind a thick skull. They are also capable of regeneration, being able to regenerate a lost limb in a matter of days.

Technologically speaking their equipment shouldn't work and looks like something a human child pieced together. However, through blind luck, what they create seems to work and function as effectively as anything any of the other races can create. They use projectile based ranged weaponry with melee weapons being made up of blade, blunt and chain based weaponry. Their armour is crude and is often only thick plates of metal strapped to their body. Only the rare few are capable of operating shield technology although it isn't a fine art and casts a wide bubble that can encompass a nearby squad rather than being a true personal shield. Also there are only a few capable of utilising magic. These few individuals are some of the most powerful magic wielders in the galaxy, however, they have little to know control over it. They could try to manifest a small fireball and end up unleashing a blast capable of incinerating an entire battleship. As such these Fungai are usually lobotomised immediately when any sign of magic capability is shown.

Other Races/Species

races from this tab will be indigenous creatures and other less evolved races. Players cannot create characters from this tab but can still add to it by contacting the GM.

The Hive

The Hive is a collection of beast like creatures who serve an overpowering Patriarch. This Patriarch has strong telepathic abilities forcing its will upon its brood creating a strong unified force. The Hive have been known to eradicate planets killing everything on the surface and strip a planet of its resources. Feared across the Galaxy for their ruthless and unending assaults the Hive when found are exterminated with extreme care with the UGC committing entire fleets for this exact purpose. Their planet of origin is unknown but the creatures evolution never stops they only grow and get stronger in an ever increasing struggle to survive.

-Sub Species-

Swarmers

Swarmers make up the main force of a Hive Brood. No bigger than a large dog the swarmers are Fast and ferocious. Although a single swarmer is easy to take down, but they never attack alone and attack with shear numbers in an attempt to overrun their target.

Sploder

A sacrificial spawn of the brood covered with sacks of acid and a body composition designed to explode when the sploder impacts into something. Very dangerous if allowed close, but their green sacks make them easy to point out and their explosions and acid make them effective against their own if taken out before reaching your lines

Slasher

The Slasher serves as the Hive's offensive power, taller than the average man Slashes are sent in along with the Swarmers to draw fire and rip their way through enemy lines. If not taken down a single slasher can easily wipe out an entire platoon of soldiers. But focusing the Slasher usually allows the Swarmers to close the gap casing their own bit of trouble. It has been documented that some Slashers have evolved an Acid launcher in place of its two claws making a deadly ranged combatant launching balls of acid at unsuspecting foes.

Brute

The Brutes are massive beasts of the Hive almost acting as a walking tank when a swarm won't do the trick. The size and shear strength of these beasts make them tough to take down, but be warned they are faster than they look and can easily crush you if you aren't paying attention.

Hive Mind

The Hive Minds are powerful telepathic beings that control the Hive. Not exactly a combatant type but is always surrounded by a type of honor guard consisting special mutations of Brutes and Slashers. The Hive Mind is the center of the Hive and without its control the Hive turn back into uncoordinated beasts even turning on themselves making killing the Hive Mind the easiest way to destroy a hive.

Galactic Tech

Melee Weapon Tech

Plain - Normal melee weapons made of sharpened and pointed metal

Chain - Melee weapons made with a chain mechanism built in, once activated the blade acts like a chainsaw cutting through flesh easily

Cartridge - Melee weapons that hold a clip filled with pellets of gun powder in the hilt and once the trigger is pulled the powder is ignited and carried through a hollow slot in the back of the blade. When the gasses are released behind the tip of the blade it exerts a powerful force pushing the blade forward.

Plasma - A melee weapon who's blade is made of two separate materials, the blade is a very conductive and strong metal while the edge is made of a metal with a low melting point. When activated the blade heats up to a point where the edge melts to a plasma state but is held in place by the magnetic pull of the blade. It is able to melt through most things i given enough time and even grazing blows can leave nasty burns.

Ranged Weapon Tech

Cartridge - Standard firearm tech, a cartage with gun powder and metal bullet are placed in a chamber when a trigger is pulled the black powder ignites propelling the bullet forward out the chamber(Cannot be used in environments without oxygen)

Laser - Beams of focused light used in a continuous fashion. Prolonged exposure can melt through anything, but unlikely to do any major damage in a glancing blow

Ion - Charged particle beam consisting of Ions. Damage the target by disrupting its atomic and/or molecular structure.

Plasma - Shots of super heated metal able to melt through anything but slow and easier to dodge than other projectiles

Ballistic - Rockets, missiles and the like. Fuels burned to propel a warhead that explodes on collision (things that go boom)

Mag Rail - Magnetism used as a weapon. Using an intense magnetic field to propel a solid slug at extremely high speeds. This type of weapon has incredible stopping power, but takes a long time between firing. (used in sniper rifles, and ship guns only)

Armor Tech

Metal - Metal plates made of titanium that is built to withstand most any attack, thickness depends on how much protection you want. Very strong, but can be heavy.

Carbon Fiber - strands of carbon weaved together to form a cloth, these cloths are then layered This creates a light material that provides a bit of protection. Also the layers can be glued together, Once cured it creates a strong, light material. Light and maneuverable, but does not provide as much protection as Metal

Hybrid - A combination of metal and carbon fiber many ways to do this and as such the protection provided varies with the technique used.

Shielding

Deflector shields - also known as deflector screens, deflectors or simply shields, were translucent or transparent energy fields produced by deflector shield generators. These generators could be placed on planets, droids, starships, space stations and individual buildings. The primary purpose of the shield was to block or deflect projectiles and lasers from hitting the object under protection.

Shield Gauntlet - was a small personal shield worn on the off-hand which could be used to absorb and even deflect energy weapons and shots. The gauntlet accomplished this by projecting a small energy shield. The shields range was less than a meter, and typically took on the appearance of a concave disk of clear energy, having no real color

Magica Shields - Personal protection shields used by those who wield Magica. It can create a barrier of protection around the castor, but its strength and duration depends on the castor of the Magica. It can deflect most any attack as long as the castor can keep the spell up.

Magica

Magica is a mysterious arcane power that allows its castor to do mystical things. The Aranites wield it like the mages of old where as other species are required to activate Magica through the power of ruins. These ruins can be engraved on anything from weapons and armor, to a small cube that fits in your pocket, or even tattooed on a person's body. In either case the use of magica pulls from the users strength. Each rune controls a specific element, but what is done with the control is up to the user.

The Ship

Legion’s End
Freighter Class Ship
SSA design
Room for 10 live in crew
Hanger capable of holding 3 small personal ships
7 Top mounted turrets (3 Ion down center of ship, 4 Plasma Two per Side



Crimson Fang
Dropship/Support Fire
SSA Design
Capable of transporting ground team to and from planet operations
2 Rotating Plasma Turrets located on front
8 Flare launchers
2 Missile Pods

Tales of the Crimson Legion - Galaxy at War

<The Hook>

It has been thousands of years after man fist set out onto space and started its colonization of space. Mankind soon colonized the entirety of the Sol system and soon reformed itself under the SSA (Sol System Alliance). And when mankind reached outside its home system it wasn't long before they made contact with extra terrestrial life and as is mankind's way that soon lead to war. The First Contact War ended after 50 years with signing a treaty to avoid either side from being annihilated, and with the SSA weakened by war and unable to retaliate several of the outlying colonies broke away to govern themselves. And thus the UGC (United Galactic Conference) to establish communication and peace between all the factions. Time passed and humanity continued to expand, new alien races were discovered and brought into the UGC and the galaxy seemed to be at a time of piece.

But recently things have been changing, the UGC is little more than a puppet to be controlled by the SSA and moves to support their goals. This has caused a great amount of tension among the factions as the SSA asserted its control over weaker factions. And just a week ago the Kingdom of Tallos accompanied by many of the Anti-SSA factions dropped out of the UGC claiming it had become corrupt and unfair. And now the two sides sit and wait preparing for war.

<Who are We?>

We are the Crimson Legion. A Mercenary group who has yet to choose a side in the upcoming war. In fact staying out of the war as much as possible. The legion is currently taking jobs from both sides for simple things like guarding a supply shipment through Pirate territory or killing off Gang leaders to stabilize the local government. The kind of jobs the Military should handle, but don't have the time to deal with while preparing for war.

<What I Need>

Just a few more players before we start. Desperately in need of a medic of some sort but will take a few more regardless of battle role (other than non-combatants)

Thanks for your time

Bloodrose Irregulars - After The Fall (Dark Fantasy Adventure) -=Remake=-

@ShwiggityShwah welcome back good sir

Bloodrose Irregulars - After The Fall (Dark Fantasy Adventure) -=Remake=-

Alm listened as Isbeil explained her studies of magics which almost put up a bit of a wall he didn't want to be studied almost as much as he thought Ehri wouldn't want to. But for the moment he remained silent and listened. Ehri opened up a bit explaining a bit more about her powers and what she could do. It was all fascinating but it didn't hold the key Alm needed to further his own growth. Furthermore it seemed that his prying into her skills seemed to upset her more than he had wished it to. Isbeil would speak again and take some notes showing she did not mean any real harm so Alm decided he would speak up himself, it wasn't like his abilities were going to be a secret to the two for long.

"As I said earlier your Clan and my own have similar methods, and I thank you for the bit of incite, But their is one major dividing point in our philosophies." Alm started off, "While your clan melds with your partners on a mental lever my clan does it in a more literal sense," He said while closing his eyes. As he did the room itself started to chill a bit, subtle things like Alm's breathing pattern and even stance started to change, and even his sent would start to change. When Alm opened his eyes the color had changed from brown to a silverish color. "My clan fuses our soulstones with a creature we hunt and deem worthy to be our partner, taking on the properties of the creature as its soul lives on inside our bodies. I personally fused with a Dire Frost Wolf who wasn't much smaller than Isa there." He started explaining for a bit before his eyes faded back to brown and the temperature normalized. "I didn't mean to pry into your Clan to much and I do apologize, but I have seemed to hit a wall in my progression. And being exiled from my Clan I have no one to turn to in this matter, so I had hoped some of the knowledge from your clan could help me past this wall. But I don't think you will have my key, we walk much different paths on our travels." He finished his little explanation. "Although that doesn't mean I don't want to hear more about your Clan. Your methods are much different than my own, but it is still worth hearing, If you want to talk about them that is." Alm added before getting up from the hay bail and starting walking to the barn's exit. "And yes miss Isbeil, I'll be happy to answer your questions as well, but not at this moment, If you will excuse me ladies I have something else to take care of. This was an interesting talk." He said before leaving.

Alm would quickly make his way back to the Tavern and to his room. Once inside his room he fell to his knees and his eyes started to turn silver again. But he fought it, "Why did I willingly let it out?" He thought to himself as he tried to remain in control of his body. It had been quite a while since Alm had tapped directly into the Wolf's power within his own Soulstone but even in it's repressed state it had grown stronger. And although it had once submitted to Alm it now wanted out, it wanted to be free once more. Alm would spend most of the remainder of the day in his room battling his own inner "demons" before emerging a bit before dinner in control of his inner self once more, although he would look a bit drained.

---Later that Night---

The rest of the day passed by peacefully allowing most of the irregulars to have a needed relaxing day after the last few weeks of desert heat. But late that night after the Irregulars had settled down for bed that peace would be broken. Bells started sounding at the outer gates which would lead to alarms throughout the entirety of the gatehouse city. Alm woke up as the first bell rang in the distance quickly preparing himself and heading down and out to scout the situation. As the others would come down Jing would gather them in the tavern to give out his orders once Alm returned. It wouldn't take long before Alm would return. "Orcs," Alm opened up with as soon as he returned. "A lot of them, multiple tribes in a coordinated assault." He continued giving his report, "Looks like the Guards are being deployed to the front gate in order to buy time for civilians to evacuate, but I saw some fires starting in the Western Residential District. I don't know how many if any guards are being dispatched to that location. The Eastern Market District is clear for now from what I gathered." Alm finished reporting and Jing took a moment to think the situation over.

"The guards lines won't hold, this outer city is expendable to the Citadel and only a light force would be sent in its defense. We will supplement the defense for as long as we can hold and let as many civilians escape as possible." Jing answered after a bit of thought. "Pox, Selova, Isbeil, and Octavia head to the Eastern Market District, I know there doesn't seem to be anything right now but I have a feeling that there might be something coming, go there and help the evacuation but be on your guard." He said giving the first group their orders, "Nanami, Yui, and Ehri, Head to the West, your goal will be to fight back whatever started that fire. Hafrbjǫrn If you are joining us now is the time and I want you to go with them, Please take point your experience will serve them well in the coming battle. As for Myself, Shion, Gwen, Jenramo, and Alm we shall head to the main gate and act as reinforcements to the guard." He concluded giving out deployment orders before moving on to a bit of a speech. "I want you all to come out of this safely, do what you can to hold until we give the retreat signal but if you as a collective group feel that you need to fall back before hand. You are all capable, but if this is multiple orc tribes this is not a battle our group can defeat. Survival and holding the Orcs back as long as possible is victory in this battle. Fight hard, but remain safe. Upon your retreat do not get diverted into the citadel every team is to make their way to Blackrock Village, you will have no way of knowing who retreated first and I will not have us waiting in a dangerous area to regroup." Jing said tying to comfort his team a bit. "If there aren't any complaints time is short so its time to move out." He concluded dismissing the Irregulars and started to make his preparations for battle. The Strike team headed to the main gate would be ready in the next few minutes and be on their way.
