Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

If you guys want to discuss what you want to do with the others in the OOC first before actually doing it, well, then you'll be doing what I originally intended for my players to do. Then again, you're so many, so that might not be practical. Haha.

And... well, I am perfectly fine with just hearing more minor posts with movements if you have nothing else to do.

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

Note, you guys can move through allies if you feel like it.

Any mistakes can be addressed. I positioned you where it made sense at the time. Haha. Now, then.

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

The two soldiers had come running forward, lances raised, their natural instincts as soldiers of Magvel telling them to go attack the one that was wielding a sword over there due to the advantage they would have due to the weapon triangle. However, as they were running forward one of them was suddenly struck by a thunderbolt from the not-very-mage-like-mage on the other side of riding prince while the other had to spin around with a lance raised due to the intercepting Pegasus Knight, failing badly as the soldier failed to protect himself and received a pin-pointed strike at his chest, injuring him and striking him off for a bit. This allowed Marwood to exchange to lance before their attack. The staggering electrocuted soldier proceeded to attempt stabbing the prince, but was unable to hit due to injury and the laps in ability, and the incoming jabs accurately felled the soldier. His companion intended to stand up again to attack, but the Lexa and Nightmare’s second charge turned too much for him.

On the east side of the battlefield Sion, Rhodri, Nethanel would be starting to engage the Grado lines. The hunks of armor fought valiantly, but King Sion and his men were simply superior, and the fact Sion was using a Lancereaver somewhat stunned the General before him who had made a poor choice of weapon. Rhodri’s brutality was going by the General in front of him despite the General using a sword and should have weapon advantage, while Nethanel had caused grievous damage to his lance-wielding General and not being hit at all despite another fight against disadvantage. That fight would not be continuing for long. Looking over this on the map within his mind, Aldo would look in that direction and tell those closest. “We should move with all haste… Or they’ll see us rounding the corner…”

“… So we’re sitting in the Throne Room instead of meeting them with our forces?” Garric would question, looking back at Rioga. Rioga would make a small, somber nod, and inform… “We need Sion to desire to hunt as deep into the Keep as possible before he realizes what he’s after isn’t here. For that, we should be protecting the most secure location, and that would be here, the Throne Room. This will delay him the longest, and give them the longest amount of time to escape.” Nero would have his eyes closed over there, awaiting the coming battle. “… Keh… I see…” Garric would say with a tone of not liking this one bit, but having no choice but to abide to this. … And then suddenly two archers came running up from the east staircase up on their left side.

“Sir! We heard you needed reinforcements in the Throne Room, so we came as soon as we could!” … “… Huh?” Garric, Nero and Rioga would be left kind of just looking at the archers, knowing no such order had been given…

Carlson and Leonard proceeded to flee west through a corridor that does not lead out of the Keep. To the south of where the soldiers were defeated, there was this makeshift wall created to keep them in, while the majority of the Spike Guild was still trying (failing) to get into the treasure chamber.

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

Alright. Now I'm posting.

Which of you consider yourselves blue, now?

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

@Apollosarcher Not sure I am going to allow you to exchange weapons in the future on that quick a notice in the future just because it is inconvenient against the enemies you're currently facing. Otherwise traps like the one I just put there is useless. If you attack with a sword in the round previously I'll probably put a limit that you'll need to defend yourself with the sword after, even if it gives a tactical disadvantage. The fact that you can switch the weapon and attack with the other weapon AFTER defending yourself Fire Emblem-style is a completely different matter. It is just to make sure you don't completely lost the disadvantage of attacking a fighter with a sword when there's a sea of lances behind him. Haha.

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

The freak like everyone here can use swords except for me _-_(Guess that explains why i'm the healer)

@Eklispe

Er... Perhaps I shouldn't mention I've competed in fencing and just didn't include it because I doubted the availability of a rapier in my proximity should I need to get a weapon of choice? XD

Also, whooaa. So many of you can kick ass.

@Skittles

If you're including me in that, no I cannot, I just happen to have available weapons, and even if I right above say "fencing", I'm in the lower region of skill. Haha.

... @ruler710 not having been online in three days is worrying me...

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

@Nightmare Bunny If at any time you feel that you can handle returning and desire to return (and assuming nothing else is stopping it) you're free to return. We'll be able to weave it into the story somehow~

... Now, then. It is starting to become time for me to post again. Who's left to post? Alright... I'll wait a little bit.

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

Nightmare Bunny has informed me that she due to personal reasons has to drop out of this roleplay and that she is sorry for this. I, of course, am perfectly fine with that and wish her good luck with what she keeps on her plate and turn my attention with a smile towards those who still remain with us.

That said, I can happily announce that I now know what's going on in our little story. Previously, I just set up the scenario with a VAGUE idea what was going on in the plot, but now I can with clarity say that I know EXACTLY what's going on, which I did not in the beginning because I didn't want to spend the effort when I didn't know if I'd get interested players or not. Now I have taken the time to thoroughly write the background plot, and I must say, I am pretty pleased with the result~! Can't wait for you to get far enough to encounter it~! XD

Also...

For those who desire

Appearance He’s roughly 1.8 meters tall, he’s got short dirty-blonde hair and his body is probably the penultimate of the term ‘average’. Not strong, not really weak. Not tall, not really short. Not slim, not really fat. That may be his own delusion, but eh, who knows. His eyes may be green, or they may be blue, depends on the mirror or eyes you’re looking from. He absolutely despises dark color due to how dreary they are (stares at own Avatar… except for when they’re cool?) and will always be seen wearing as colorful red/blue/yellow/white clothes as he can find. He makes sure to always be dressed in a nice shirt, because that might give others the impression that he’s civilized. He has a chain attached to the right side of his pants leading into his pocket, it holds his house-key secure. Superbly Caucasian (Nordic?). He is a positive one who always tries to be friendly, considerate of others and smile. … But he doesn’t like how his face looks with too wide a smile, so he tries to maintain a small smile, which sometimes doesn’t look like a smile at all to others when he believes he’s smiling which can cause all the wrong feelings…

Weapon of choice: His dad’s a hunter. He may not be, but should the worst come to pass he can probably rather quickly learn how to operate the hunting rifles. And if not, he has this practice bow which he can fire pretty sharp arrows at enemies. And if that doesn’t work, he does have all those knives in the kitchen…

Likes: Pleasing everyone, relaxing after a lot of effort, when everything is in perfect order, following all the laws he can just because. Also, anime, manga, video games, roleplaying, etc. JRPGs are the best. Bloody/black pudding.

Dislikes: Leaving even a single person unsatisfied, being stressed with too many things, alcohol and smoking, peer pressure. … The fact he’s allergic to pollen, fur, grass, mites, dust, probably more… … … And he HATES spoilers.

Others: He collects hair-bands. Those round bands that can be found lying on the ground a bit of everywhere. They’re so fun to find and pick up randomly. It feels like finding a treasure every time he sees one now. And they can be in such random locations, too. Just yesterday he found one on a train. It was so random. So much fun. They’re no use to him, but collecting them is fun.

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

@71342 That... I am not going to demand the others to write unless they want to. XD ... Eh, suppose I could write one for myself. Not now. I am busy with other things right now. Haha.

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

@Apollosarcher ... Heh. Alright, then. We'll see how it went.

@Eklispe I'm glad to hear it~

@Harbringer *snicker* Alright, then. I can approve of this. Teh-heh.

@71342 Nicely posted. Alright, then, I'll take this into account. Lesse. How many haven't posted on the second run? It kind of isn't a necessity, as tightly packed as you all are right now, I might just give a post on what happens on the front to move things along, but in any case.
