Twich still has his soul. You're not allowed to have it because it is his.

The Horde of Evil - Tresspassing through treacherous tribes' territory! (RP closed)

By the time Ekusha had deemed fit to give Twich a visit, the kobold had been somewhat busy with some basic preparations; His belongings had already been covered in cloths that had been treated with wax to make them water (and fluid) proof; Such a practice had been made standard procedure after an unexpected body burst ruined several of his books to the point were he had to burn them. Twich himself had already donned his black work robe (Treated with wax), but had yet to done his 'bird mask' when Ekusha arrived.

The Kobold respected Ekusha enough to listen to what she had to say; She was one of the people that had listened to his plan during the raid after all, it was the least he could do. It was also clear that she was one of the more intelligent servants of the Master and thus he could actually have something of a half way decent conversation with her... but that intelligence also made Twich cautious of the woman in turn. That which is intelligent can plot, and that which can plot can plot against you...

"You make a very persuasive offer but at this point in time I will have to say no to your proposed alliance; It is only early days yet and we only have a basic idea of who the other is. Even more so, we know even less about the Rakshasa and if his anger and pride continue to keep him on the Master's shit list he will not last all that long." Twich explained respectfully before taking a breath and continuing with "That said, I am not against collaboration or co-operation between us. And the first issue that we are going to have to address is that of That Which Consumes Peace."

"While he has his uses, you and I both know that his very nature means that he will become an issue for us somewhere in the future. It's merely a question of when we are forced to deal with him." It was a simple statement, but Twich trusted that Ekusha had already foreseen the problem as well.

Loki watched carefully as Bruce introduced himself, noting the slight bit of anger that had been displayed at the mention of this so called 'Ross'. The influence behind the military response perhaps? Shuffling that piece of information away for further research later, Loki considered his options in the present. He doubted that he would be able to get any of the answers he wanted out of Bruce at this early juncture, but he didn't want to just abandon the man in the middle of the outback with absolutely nothing to work with...

"Wait here five minutes Bruce. I'll be right back..." was all the warning that Loki gave before vanishing, teleporting from the outback and into a store hundreds of kilometers away that was tailored with campers in mind. While the place was technically closed that wasn't much of a hindrance; If anything it meant he didn't have to deal with shop attendants. It was a rather quick shopping trip since Loki had given himself a time limit and who knew if Bruce would still be there when he got back, but with all haste Loki had managed to secure himself a tent, a sleeping bag, a survival knife, two changes of clothing (M sized) and a few other bits and pieces that someone in the wilderness might make use of. All it really took was a wave of his hand to rearrange the shop's computer systems to recognize an extra purchase and compensated it for the trouble before Loki was off again.

The second stop was similar to the first, only it was at a supermarket. This one required a bit of invisibility due to the fact that the store was actually still open but it wasn't that hard to grab at least a few days worth of water bottles and food before another 'purchase' went through and once more he was gone.

The return back to where he had left Bruce was signaled by several bags dropping onto the sandy ground and Loki carefully placing a few more down as he glanced around to see if Bruce was still there. Hopefully he hadn't run off...

Since Twich will not be going on this next outing in favor of doing research, just how far along would he get with that? Because I have something in mind...

Project: Growth Spurt

An attempt to increase the strength and size of the Dungeon Keeper's minions in order to make them better at certain tasks and possibly combat. The results were... mixed. After a couple of deaths, a formula was discovered that caused humans to grow to almost twice their size and gain a terrifying amount of physical power... at the cost of being dumber then a brick and needing to be micromanaged and given basic instructions to do anything. They are also naturally non-aggressive and don't even fight back if attacked or hurt. The strain of the transformation also tends to kill them within twenty four hours or so.

I'll get a Loki post up sometime today. Need to sleep now.

Kobolds make the best minions; They worship power loyally (For a given amount of loyal mind you, but its better then nothing).

The fact that the master had accepted his request and provided him with several minor boons to ease with the transport of his new crop of test subjects made Twich a very happy kobold. Reaffirmed in his choice of patron master, Twich went to work gathering his new test subjects (In some cases, having some of them drag the unresponsive bodies of the soulless with them) and shepherding them through the provided portal.

With enough prodding and a few kicks here and there, Twich was able to successfully get his new slaves through the portal without a hitch. Offering his Master one last bow he stepped through the portal himself.

Twich's quarters were really a two roomed area that he had mostly made for himself; The fact that the kobold had been willing to help dig out his rooms instead of just commanding the imps to do it had earned him at least a small amount of grudging respect from the imps themselves. Not much in the ground scheme of things but enough that when he requested two holding cells be dug into the wall of one room and a second room be dug out to convert it into a larger, communal holding cell he had been able to get them. The room was littered with books, medical and alchemy equipment and a heavy, blooded soaked table that was bolted to the floor standing in the middle of the room that was covered in heavy leather and metal restraints.

Physically making the test subjects that were carrying soulless bodies on the floor, Twich herded those still standing through the door into the larger holding cell. It would be rather cramped at the moment, but after the primary tests on the soulless bodies Twich would get around to solving the overcrowding problem easily enough. Once the slaves were secure, Twich dragged one of the soulless bodies over to his table and with much effort got the big bastard onto it.

All he had to do now was figure out what experiment he wanted to start off working on...

"Hmm... What to start off with. Could make something to kill the master's enemies on mass... Could figure out how to improve it to make better slaves and servants... Decisions decisions..." Twich muttered privately to himself with a large, toothy smile on his face.

@Sep@Dedonus

Captain America Vs any combination of America's racist right wing extremist groups would not only be awesome TV, but I'm fairly certain that he wouldn't mind putting off escaping or being rescued for a while...

Not sure which side of the coin Loki would land on if you did this sort of storyline; Honestly he could adept to being rescuer or needing rescue pretty well... just not quite sure what sort of show he would start off in...

You know I suspect that S.H.I.E.L.D might actually have some idea who Loki is, considering that he was somewhat active during WW2. Admittingly he was an independent who kept his involvement as under the radar as possible but S.H.I.E.L.D (Or at least the Strategic Scientific Reserve, as it had been back during the war) seems smart enough to figure out that someone seemed to be screwing with the Nazi's information networks that wasn't them.

Loki's day had simply been absolutely full of surprises it seemed.

The Jolly Green Giant with a short temper had taken a long hard look at the night sky and calmed down dramatically; Loki suspected that it was a combination of the beauty of the night sky (And out here it really was beautiful) combined with the fact that no one was provoking or attacking the green beast in any manner out here. Somewhat pleased with his vindication, Loki was surprised by the fact that the beast shrunk down to what would otherwise be a normal human being had he not witnessed the transformation himself. Granted he had seen shape shifters before (He was one himself after all) but this kind of transformation was quite new even for Loki. He was inclined to learn more...

When the man finally noticed him, his reaction suggested strongly that he had no recollection of what had taken place when he was big and green; Not a voluntary shape shifter and more a cursed transformation akin to a werewolf then. Taking this new piece of information into account, Loki offered the man a friendly smile that seemed to reflect the moonlight... largely in part to the sliver lines around his mouth actually reflecting moonlight. "My name is Loki. What I want is a couple of answers to some very interesting questions but I can't help but feel that you would rather know where you are and how you came to be here first."

"See, a little while ago I was staying in New York when I came across a strange but powerful green creature that was trying to escape from the city with a minimum of fuss. Unfortunately in one of the greatest collaborated acts of stupidity I've witnessed in a long time a combination of the US Military and several 'Heroes' more dedicated to fighting the 'Rampaging Monster' then actually observing the situation and using their brains decided that a city filled with innocent people was the perfect place to start a fight. Due to a desire to help keep the damage to a minimum and because it was clear that the creature wasn't harming anyone that didn't attack it first, I grabbed the creature and teleported the both of us far, far away from New York and people in general. Which is where we are now."

"As for where we are..." The smile on Loki's face grew playful as he stated in a perfect Australian accent "Welcome to the Australian Outback mate. So what's your name?"
