Pretty lights > towards the heavens /// Adventuring day 4 // Afternoon / Location - ????

The air was heavy, his form didn’t move like his last one did. More of a blob trying to push its way through a thicker blob. All to reach one shimmering ray of light. One hand finally reached it, and he was suddenly sucked up into the light and out of the cave.

The view was spectacular and vast. A few glimpses of far off places and an island covered in lightning and storm clouds. A vast sea and many other things that soon disappeared in a blur as he was taken higher and higher. Soon even the planet spun away with colors of blue, green, and brown. Before long, he was basking in the light of the sun.

He seemed to stop near it, all he could do was examine the object of his worship before him. Yet somehow, he felt like something was observing him as well. The silence of the vacuum could very well have been over bearing if not for the bright globe in front of him. Then he heard it, almost a whisper but not quite a scream, a question.

“What is the Sun? Why praise the Sun? Why seek its glorious incandescence?”

Hesitating for only a moment he spoke up or at least spoke how he thought. “The sun is a constant in this unknowing world. Something to depend on when it is needed, something to be praised when it is not. A symbol of hope and promise of a better tomorrow.” He felt something in what he could only describe is his stomach. Something heavy that threatened to pull him down.

“I seek its light, so that I may become stronger with the suns help. So that I may be able to protect those that I surround myself with as friends and family. To be their light on the darkest of days. Because she….” He trailed off again and looked away. “Because when I see the love of my past life and this life again. I don’t want her to see me as a monster. I want her to see me as I was. A good man that cared about others and their well being. A man that defended others from the monsters.” Looking back to the burning sphere with the same determination he had felt before he entered his rage towards the skeletons. “Whatever the cost, whatever it takes.”

It was all he could say, all he could muster in the presence before him. Something about it slowly became overwhelming. And the stone in his stomach seemed to be pulling him slowly back down towards his body no matter how much he struggled to keep aloft.

To become Stronger > Pretty lights /// Adventuring day 4 // Afternoon / Location - Cave

Weightlessness and light. The first few feelings he could make out as he seemed to formlessly raise from his body. The purple haze of the cave was all he could make out of the edges of his surroundings. He could see many other things around Jason’s cave. That core had summoned many others.

Many of these things that he could clearly tell were undead had small purple wisps inside them. Souls perhaps? Looking back to the cocoon that was his body he witnessed Mother slime come over and take the lizard he had claimed and frowned, “what a bitch move.” Was all he could think to say about the situation.

A small red light in the distance beckoned to him. Two other small lights drifted toward it from the direction that they had just killed the two lizards. He wondered if he was seeing this because of his guidance perk. His thoughts bled away to nothing as something caught his eye.

A beam of light shined down from the ceiling and into the nesting area. It was warm and inviting, it almost looked like it was snowing with the motes of light that drifted from it. It seemed to bacon to him and he just couldn’t help but indulge the feeling to bask in the sunlight. Surely after he was done enjoying the ray of light he would try to return to his body.

Of Blood and Magic

Victor Strigois Astorio

Name: Victor “Vic” Strigois Astorio

Appearance

Clothing style: Victor likes to wear his black turtle neck and tan khaki style pants with a tan coat that stops at his knees. Really it comes down to whatever is loose fitting and easy to move around in.

Height: 6’6”

Weight: 210 Lbs.

Hair Color/Style: Brown, Short, and shaved on the sides normally no facial hair

Identifying markings: Something unusual for a vampire, scars adorn his frame. Most of them seem to have a pattern of some kind. Others look a bit more brutal.

Body Type: Muscular

Age: 117

Gender: Male

Personality: Quiet and at times unsympathetic of others feelings. Victor has been noted to being strange even within his family. Preferring to watch and listen then let his emotions get the best of him and act on impulse. Although built strong and rather intimidating, he is reserved and almost Stoic in his presence. This one does enjoy telling half truths and testing others, always trying to see how he can deceive others.

At times in the right company when he’s having a good time, one would be hard-pressed to shut him up. At other times he won’t say a word for days. Preferring to let his actions and body language speak for him. He doesn’t have a lot of care for the other members of his family. Rumors abound that he actively tries to get in the way of his brothers and sisters just to piss them off and give him a reason to cause them bodily harm.

Another rumor is his treatment of mages. Most in his family see them as toys and pin cushions for their frustration and enjoyment. Something to be used and abused before having an untimely training accident. Victor however treats his mages with a bit more care, as long as they are useful or at the very least want to work with him. To those he trusts he can be kind even, in his own way.

Bio: Victor was born into the Strigois family, a lesser and new noble family from the Astorio family. He does not know or remember the early years of his life. His father, a paranoid and cruel man, will only tell him that his mother died in childbirth, and he was left dormant for a time and that it effected his memory. He otherwise cannot remember the first 10 years of his life as a pure blood.

His family made up the former royal guard of the Noble family. They never truly forgave the higher nobles for discarding them for mages. Because of that his father pushes survival, physical, and mental preparedness over other teachings. Politics seemed to be a secondary choice and none of them were allowed to use a cell phone or computer passed knowing only how one functions. Distractions were few and seldom, the ultra-traditionalist head of their family kept his children on their toes.

He believed in the legends of old, were wolves and demons, making sure his family knew of them and why they trained. To survive. To protect. To fight.

Back talk or laziness that infect so many other vampires was not tolerated and normally was met with swift, harsh, and at times brutal punishment. You followed the rules and followed your orders. Loyalty to the clan, Honor for the family, Brutality for your enemies. A family motto, if there ever was one.

Revealed history

Sexual Orientation: Bisexual, but prefers women

Fighting Style: Prefers unarmed combat and is decent with a long sword and long bow.

Likes:
- Meditating
- Reading about history and legends
- Listening to others talk
- Practicing his fighting and survival techniques
- The fall and winter seasons
- Singing
- Sculpting stone, metal, and wood as a hobby

Dislikes:
- His family
- High born nobles
- Weak or lazy people
- Getting into political discussions with others
- Loud and obnoxious people

Habits:

- He has a strange craving every now and then for the blood of an animal. He is well aware that it doesn’t do anything for him. He can get a little upset without it for a while. normally keeps it in a silver flask and is usually mixed with some type of preservative.

- Victor tries to be the mediator in fights by physically putting himself in-between people. He does this mostly so he can have a good reason to fight, self-defense is normally a good excuse when being talked too about it later.

- He will at times, when in someone else’s house, move random objects or hide important things. Mostly because imagining someone trying to find something that he hid is amusing.

Other:

Unique Items:
- A family Sword made of strong steel with silver inlays in the blade and handle. The inlays hold the name of the old family’s lord at the time.
- A pendant on a leather strap that holds his family sigil.

From the weakest goblin to the Strongest god

Ghoul Gird

Just some harmless training > this is going to hurt /// Day 6 // Morning

Gird was quite impressed himself in his current abilities and the addition of a new fighting stance just made him feel all the stronger. But then she backed off giving more room in-between the two, a good strategy against someone that needs to get up and personal. He watched her movements for a little while. Luz’s body language was telling him she was going to come at him again.

In the brief moment of her complement Gird whispered to the spirit he was carrying around with him, “Gobta after this I might need some of your knowledge about healing. Because this is going to hurt.” He was well aware of what he was doing. It wouldn’t be very fair for him to gain all the skills and have his friend gain nothing in return. That and with what he was about to do he knew it would test his Stone Skin skill.

Luz charged from her position the blunt end of her spear facing him. Gird resisted all of his natural instincts to dodge and instead he focused on blocking the strikes with his for arms and legs but otherwise taking every hit. Planting his feet deeper hit after hit to stay upright and resist his friend’s strength to throw him to the ground. Taking the last blow to his stomach he dropped to one knee momentarily. Taking a moment to stand back up and resume his defensive position.

Ardur The Pixie

A death in the family > To become Stronger /// Adventuring day 4 // Afternoon / Location - Cave

Ardur couldn’t help but flinch at the sudden spray of water from the wisps spell. The small clash between the two made the crystal they had split in two. Danny fluttered away from both of them while Asura slowly regained his form. At the slimes request Ardur reached out and used Minor Healing II on him but sighed. He was beginning to get tired, not physically but mentally. All this senseless fighting for what? To protect a strange and dangerous crystal?

As the red slime began to ask of the core and something about moving out Ardur got an interesting system update. A new level? And something called transformation with a list? So this was how some of the others changed. “I wonder if that means im lagging behind the others?” he thought to himself. He was quiet for some time as he pondered his choices quietly to himself. It almost seemed that he was ignoring the slime next to him all together.

“Hmm.” He whispered to himself, “how about 4 points in Inspire, 2 points in Guidance, 1 point to Spell Chant, and put the last two in mana strike and point strike respectively.” He muttered to himself before looking back to his friend. “Not so fast Asura. By the way you were moving back there I can only assume you used more than a little stamina. Not only that but there is still a skeleton and wisp that are unaccounted for. More than likely once Jason fell the core would go into a defensive mode and I can only guess that it has gathered the rest of the monsters in this cave to protect it.” He glanced to the lizard he killed earlier.

“That monster was being controlled even after Jason died so it’s safe to assume we are in for a fight.” He began to walk back toward the lizard he killed. “There’s something else as well, I will be doing something called transforming. It says I will be vulnerable for a little while so watch my back while you eat and rest. But I call dibs on this lizard.” Opening the warm mouth of the dead creature he reached in and grasped its tongue. Ripping it out with one hand while the other kept its mouth open.

Turning back to the red slime he smiled, “After im done I’ll show you were the core is. However, there is one condition. That being that we are there to destroy it. If you try to take it for yourself, I will do everything in my power to destroy it and you.” he took a bite of the lizards flesh and swallowed. “And by the way I can eat anything.”

Tossing the rest of the flesh to the ground with a sigh, “whatever it takes Sara.” Ardur took a deep breath and closed his eyes, he was done. Done being weak, done being selfish, done being a pixie. This is the path he would choose no going back, to be stronger so that he may be able to save others not destroy them. To protect the others, his friends, “System, I choose Hipixie!” Ardur felt light headed, almost like his Mana and Stamina were drained from him nearly instantly. With a shaky wobble the pixies knees gave out and he fell to the ground motionless.

From the weakest goblin to the Strongest god

Ghoul Gird

Adventure! > Just some harmless training /// Day 6 // Morning

Luz seemed to be distant for a moment, she seemed like she didn’t quite understand what had happened to him or how it made him better. Her worry was apparent even if she tried to hide it. “I will not make you follow this path I have chosen. However, do not misunderstand my reasoning for this. I’m doing this for you, I’m doing this for them.” Glancing off toward the stone church and then back to her, “I’m doing what I can to be stronger, to be better, to be more powerful. All of this, all of my choices and motives are all focused on protecting all of us from whatever may stand against us. That is something that I can promise you.”

He didn’t have much more time to do anything before the female put her fists up in a ready position, saying something about testing his new skills. She lunged at him swinging wildly at him. Honestly it briefly caught him off guard. His new skill [Deathly Movements] kept him protected. Somehow he knew or felt her movements and where they were coming from, this in turn allowed him to dodge some of the attacks she threw at him while most seemed to graze him. Only a few hit their mark.

Activating [Stone Skin] the ghoul attempted to hold his ground. Using what he knew about blocking with his unarmed fighting with the combination of [Stone Skin] and [Deathly Movements] to try and see if he couldn’t improve his skills while she could do the same. A brief training session was always a good way to start off a morning hunt.

Ardur The Pixie

Sometimes your best isn't enough > A death in the family /// Adventuring day 4 // Morning > Afternoon / Location - Cave

All the pixie could do was watch the two slimes continue their assault while he went for more mana. The crystals were abundant now and it was something he would attempt to make the most of while he could. Consuming two of the four immediately to refill his reserves he looked back to the fight at hand only to see Jason speed off. Ardur did flinch for a moment at the sudden static but then began to fly back towards the duo. “Was the bastard trying to run again?” he thought to himself, “No, he’s trying to cast another spell.”

Or at least he thought, the runes and sigils forming over the slime was certainly something to admire and at the very least try and acquire or figure out while they were there. However, unlike the first time he saw them. These runes seemed fuzzy and flickered, the sigil didn’t seem to be working as well as he had intended and within a moment they fizzled out just as the slime ruptured and tore itself apart with a sharp stone.

The green insides and acids of the former Reborn where strewn across the rock face and soaked into the dirt. Ardur paused and watched, expecting some monster to be summoned in his place. Yet nothing happened. Danny seemed interested in getting to the corpse or mound of goo but the lizards still posed a threat. That and Ardur did want one of them for his own experiments.

Seeing the opportunity to strike as one of the lizards was distracted by firing a glob at Asura. The buff pixie flew down towards the Lizard, but just before he reached it and he was sure he wouldn’t miss the creature’s spine. Ardur put his feet out in front of him together and with his heels first landed on the lizard. He just hoped he did as much damage as he would have liked too.

Feeling like the monster was dead or at the very least demobilized. Ardur continued towards Asura and Danny who seemed to be fighting over something the pulled out of Jason’s body. The pixie landed lightly next to the other two looking to what was left of the green slime and sighed. Bringing his hands together his right hand in a fist with his other clasping over his fist he bowed his head and spoke a simple and quiet prayer.

“O merciful Sky Father, bringer of light in our darkest days, bringer of warmth in our coldest nights. I pray that you may guide this one on his journey. To watch over him and grant him the peace he deserves, the peace he was unable to find in life. He was a worthy adversary and a good fighter, he fought for what he believed in even to his dying breath. Watch over him Lord of fire and might, this one deserved that much.” A brief pause while the pixie found the words for what he had to say next.

“Ancient vows, to order kneel
A warden's call to blood and steel
Legion lines to shield the frail
Behind the plate and mail

Cast from our place
Now further from grace
We fall.”

Some lyrics from one of the many songs he still remembered. He didn’t sing them this time; this time they were there to finish his prayer. Turning to the other two Ardur looked them over. “Danny, Jason is gone. I’m not sure if your safe here by yourself now. Just give the crystal to Asura and maybe come along with us? Safety in numbers.” Ardur didn’t want Jason to die, hell he didn’t want anyone to die. Not again anyways. He hoped that maybe, just maybe in this world things would be different, maybe death here wasn’t the end. As far as he could tell so far, it wasn’t different. he hardly noticed through his prayer that the wisp was trying to cast a spell.
