Uh, Imma outa here, on second though. This looks more PVP than I imagined.


Today, I entered Castle Grimm!
"heh." Umbra just sneered at the comment of the other elf, her hand resting in her hip as she made a motion to pick up her cloak and once again, fasten it. She then began to walk inside the door, in graceful catlike steps. "Sir Borifos, you're also deluded. Do you think that numbers are everything? This little personality-cult you have with that fast mercenary of the spear cannot afford to even lose once, and yet she still acts as if she can defy everyone. Talk about the pot calling the kettle back, it was your leader's refusal to stand down what started this in the first place. We can afford to lose multiple times, as we're the a longstanding order of knights. You simply cannot compete with a knightly order in the long run."

She paused.

"Within a hundred of years this little group of yours will be nothing but bone and ash, and I will be laughing as the Iron Roses will still be standing." She huffed as she went inside, examining the corpses with certain disdain, as if they were just pieces of game meat ready to slaughter. "But go ahead, try to lecture me, try to say you're good enough and puff your chests. Beneath that flippant attitude your dear leader was afraid of getting caught in the middle of something without even wanting it."

Her hands wandered once again, and in a quick gesture, she deftly picked a small critter off the ground. The black puffball of the rat squealed at first, but seemed to settle down as Umbra reached for her pocket, gently offering some bread to the rodent, and scratching the back of its head.

"I'm going to interrogate a witness, don't mind me." She said to her fellow knights, as she stared deep into the squeaking rodent, her mind and senses sharpening.

Tell me what happened here, little one. She conveyed to the rat.
Karin sighed at her own predicament, as she watched the fairy still trying to devour her remaining lunch. Deciding to be more proactive, she wolfed down the remains of the battle, despite the meekly protests of her backpack stowaway. She felt somewhat comforted, after having let steam out and some food in her system, but she was still pretty much hungry.

And then some awfully racked was happening in the nearby districts. The containts of her backpack shuffled once more, the tiny chubby fairy trying to tell something.

"What NOW!?" She hissed at her own backpack, disregarding the oddity.

"Negari." Depardieu spoke. "Troublesome."

Karin gulped. It was going to be one of these shitty days, wasn't she? She quickly pieced together a excuse, marvelling herself at how ironic it was to put "spoiled food" as the case for her absence. She also gesticulated and acted out the part, quickly grabbing her utensils and then dashing to the bathroom, her other hand in her mouth as if she was going to unload the ill-filling food she had just eaten on the courtyard.

She sighed, as she pronounced the magical words.

"Ignite Heart...whatever." She sighed, making sure nobody looked. The toilette stall had also a window to exit, so she made short work of that, struggling slightly because her scarf got snagged. With deft jumps and a fat fairy on her shoulder, the 10-year old quickly navigated to where the menace was.

She reeled.

"Well, I no longer have appetite, it seems." She grimaced, the disgusting display of a Negari blob making her stomach freeze all of a sudden. Oh well, not like I can do much about it. She resigned herself. Depardieu had given her quite a lame power, had she? So, the ten year old cupped her hands around her mouth opening and hollered.

"Hey, listen up! If you touch me, I can make a bond with you and share senses and my magical energy, that oughta help!".

Now, this was the worst part. Waiting to see how the usual magical girl reacted. She hoped that they weren't too ego-conscious this time. Otherwise she could never fight the thing on her own... without resorting to THAT.
I'm currently quite busy, so don't expect a new post until Tuesday.


Well then. I will try to squeeze something then.
Meh, kill sigma. I don't care. I'm off for Christmas. @Mr Rage
<Snipped quote by AtomicNut>

Not really sure how to 'level' it but I'd say medium at most. The world itself has a fairly low level of the supernatural, the most action probably being a fantasy type creature like a goblin or something. Even traveling about the more remote areas you'd probably have a low chance of meeting anything really supernatural. Now as for withing Castle Grimm, we'll call it a bit of a hot spot so chances are raised considerably of something strange happening. Still, most things will be more 'physical', like monsters, than magical type beings but they may appear every so often.


Well to be fair i was thinking on a character that got half his face burnt because a battle with...yeah. A dragon.
Hey @IceHeart, nice stuff.

Mind if I ask you the level of supernatural in this setting?
Umbra's swift movements continued, even as she had been blocked by the barrier. A gigantic fist made her alarmed for a second, lamenting that no one had take her cue to suppress the magic spellcaster to be too late. She performed a quick backjump, her swords ready in a combat stance.

And then, the familiar sound of sheathing was heard, as she put away her weapons. "Well, that's about it, hm. I probably should thank Sir Tyaethe for that." She started speaking in common again. "Your mercenary force has been shown in full. Your leader's game has been unmasked as mere posturing and bloodlust. And you're about to be in a bad time, because the people who were holding back all this time, might not chose to do so." She said, as she kept still ready for more attacks coming her way, but with no intention to fight back. Her gaze wandered to Tiral, and the massive spell he was preparing.

"So, sir Borifos, since you're the one with the most common sense, why don't you tell your captain to stop picking on Fanilly? Because if you spill blood of the captain of the Iron Roses, bravado and guts might not be enough to go through this situation." The elf said, as she pointed as the still struggling troopers.

To be fair, I was getting antsy, and my patience was waning, so forcing things a little seemed pretty fair.




Sult and Nero looked at eachother, witnessing the blasphemous swearing of Sir Indrau, and couldn't resist making a giggle or two. Even though he was pretty serious, there was something absolutely hilarious on how he waddled with barely contained anger. Both twins nodded to eachother, and dismounted their own steeds, flanking the irate veteran knight. Two sets of arms aided him to stay steady, as if they were two healers aiding a cripple. Which in a sense, it was true.

"My, my. Sir Indrau, don't do that." Sult said.

"Boots are very expensive, sir Indrau!" Nero chided in reply, as she exchanged a sight with Sult. Hopefully, there would be no need of intervention yet, but both began to channel her magic as well as Tiral did. Just in case.
