Overlord Thraka

The Room

*Taboo grins to herself and walks to the bar, taking herself another serving of blood-red wine. She perches delicately on the barstool and pats the seat next to her*
Taboo: Come Finnick, sit, let's talk. Where have you been traveling from?
*She casually sips her drink, enjoying it.*
Taboo: So these... creatures, enemies of yours?

The Room

Name: Taboo Stripe-paw

Age: 24

Fandom (If anything): Mix of homebrew and a couple book series (Wereworld, Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel)

Skills: Gymnastics, acrobatics, combat, knife fighting, free-running, parkour, dancing

Fears: Losing her family, giant monsters, death.

Likes: Her family, dancing, jewelry, gems, gold, wine, music, causing pain, embarrassing people, various kinds of drugs and the high they give, human flesh (in more than one meaning of the phrase)

Hates: Were-Jaguars and Were-Wolves, being bored, Mergoux, slow music, whiskey, constricting clothing, thieves, being hurt, having to do something she doesn't want to.

Description: Taboo is a woman of rather average height and build. Her face is pretty, but not quite attractive enough to be called beautiful by most, her most notable asset is her flaming red hair, always looking straight out of a commercial it's very full and voluminous and flows down her back and over her shoulders in thick waves.
Her skin is well tanned and she's very fit. She likes wearing loose pants, large amounts of jewelry and not much else.

Background: Taboo was raised by her father, after her mother was killed by a vengeful warrior. Her twin brother Togan was her best friend, and otherwise she had none. She grew up the pampered princess surrounded by slaves who waited on her hand and foot, always given everything she ever desired. Despite this she grew bored in her late teens and begged her father to join him and her brother in work, there she proved herself a capable warrior and expert infiltrator. She would often sneak into towns her father deemed targets and scout the land out before her father, brother and their party of bandit-slavers attacked. In this way she learned to put on a false face before those she found repulsive and was able to infiltrate them easily.

More recently though she's lost track of her brother, she worries for him daily and is hurt by her father's lack of care. Above all else though, she wishes to punish the warrior she blames for the death of her mother.

Items: Large amounts of jewelry that she wears at all times. Twin steel daggers she keeps hidden in her loose pants

Other: N/A

The Room

*Xan smiles slightly*
Xan: Oh! Okay! I am glad to be help!
*She watches Zeta curl up to sleep and gets up herself. She goes into the lounge and grabs several blankets before returning to Zeta and tucking her in.*
*Xan then takes a blanket of her own and curls up the corner of the kitchen*

*Horus stares at Beatrix for a few moments*
Horus: ...That sounds... bats#&@ crazy to be honest. Did he try jumping off high things?

*Taboo grins and turns, shaking her hips playfully*
Taboo: Come then, let's gets something to drink. Have you been traveling long?
*She pauses for a moment then shakes her head*
Taboo: No, I've not seen anything with horns here. How big are they?

The Room

*Taboo smirks at being called 'sweetheart'*
Taboo: I know there's alcohol, and that it's excellent quality... I don't know about grilled food though, I could go for some fish...
*Her stomach growls and she smiles and laughs charmingly.*
Taboo: See?! I'm Taboo, and you are?
*Despite her friendly demeanor and charm, her eyes are icy cold*

The Room

*Iris and Hanna are snoozing peacefully on a couch nearby the door*

*Taboo sneaks out of the kitchen only to run into the Elf and Finnick. She pauses for a moment, then smiles disarmingly at them both*
Taboo: Hello there...
*She looks them over curiously*

The Room

*Xan looks a little downcast*
Xan: Okay... Sorry...
*She helps deliver the lumber to the kitchen then turns back into human form. She sits quietly, watching Zeta work once she starts repairing the roof.*

*When Taboo hears Xan and the other two women coming she quickly darts out of sight, knowing that Taboo would recognize her*

*Horus smiles slightly at the infectious giggling*
Horus: A big bird huh? Then what was that comment about a mask?

The Room

*Xan looks slightly abashed*
Xan: Sorry... Just wanting to help. Not had friend in... long time... Besides! You hurt, I not! I can carry wood.

*Horus eyes Beatrix, watching how she moves, focusing on her footwork. He realizes she knows exactly what she's doing and makes a note not to underestimate her.*
*He then shoots a look at Eustace*
Horus: My name is Horus! Not bird-man!
*He looks down at Beatrix and nods to her*
Horus: Beatrix hm? I am Horus, the Avenger. What is a Nezahualpilli?
*He doesn't act particularly friendly, but he's trying not being rude either*
*He rolls his eyes when he notices where John's have strayed and sighs*
Horus: I take it then that you're also after this book?

*Tiaz snarls at everyone once more before turning and walking away. He limps through the woods back towards his cave-home*

*Taboo sees Iris and Hanna asleep on the couch, but decides the dragon-woman doesn't look like someone to be messed with. Instead she strolls into the kitchen and lazily pokes around, trying to figure out what everything is. She accidentally turns the dishwasher on and begins fiddling with the microwave*

The Room

*Xan hefts the extra weight without complaint and keeps walking.*

*Tiaz growls at everyone, tucking the baggie away in his robe before looking at Gordon*
Tiaz: 3-4 moon cycles. Why does it matter to you human?
*His look darkens considerably*
Tiaz: And my name is not Lion-O! I am Tiaz!

*Taboo frowns and gets up*
Taboo: I will leave you. Good day.
*She walks off to find someone else to question*

The Room

*Tiaz considers Finnick's offer. He has no idea what Lyrium dust is, and that interests him. He takes a few more moments to somewhat calm down before snarling in anger*
Tiaz:...Fine.
*He hurls the staff at Finnick's feet, even as he practically glows with death-force*
Tiaz: The dust, then you leave my lands. Forever.
*Even though he hasn't exactly had the upper hand in this fight, he's ready to continue it at a moments notice should Finnick defy him*

The Room

*Tiaz roars in rage as his shadow-roots are burned*
Tiaz: Your skull will join my collection!
*He drains another tree, but this time uses the energy more directly, shooting a bolt of pure death-energy at Finnick. If it hits, it would physically drain him immensely, exhausting him as it feeds on his lifeforce.*
*Tiaz slams his staff into the ground again and a black circle spreads around him, the circle is the plantlife beneath him being drained of life and turning black and shriveled. An unlucky mouse is caught in the circle and within seconds shrivels to a withered corpse, looking like a creature long dead*

*Xan transforms and lifts any remaining wood that Zeta cut. All in all she can carry about 200 pounds*
Xan: Yes! You rest! You still plenty hurt!
*Her Jaguar face is much fiercer than her human one, and she fixes Zeta with a stern glare*
Xan: You are needing to rest! Not even sleep, but lie still and heal! I tell you many times and you not listen!

*Taboo frowns and turns to look at the now empty bar*
Taboo:...They have gone. Where did they go?
