Bloodlines of Steel and Snow (An Overlord RP)

~~A cold new world~~

Rumble

Well, this was quite the predicament.

Crash crack ksssh

Now how was she to solve this conundrum?

"You know, when I signed up to play this game, I didn't think I'd end up freezing my tentacles off in an avalanche." The mass of snow rumbled, barreling down the mountain as a certain abomination was carried along with it barely able to keep in front of it after she had landed in some freezing place. Hm. Maybe she should have put more skill into levitation? Eh, she was fine. "Ahhh, I just wanted to enjoy the end of the world quietly. Why do I always get into these situations."

Bolting down the mountain, her levitation skill keeping her just above the ground as she barely stayed ahead of the avalanche. Where even was she? She definitely wasn't in the Under Sea where she liked to stay in Yggdrasil. She had somehow been teleported above ground! High above! High enough to need flying lessons! And an avalanche! Was someone trying to kill her!? What'd she ever do to anyone?

Aside from the occasional PKs and eating people, she didn't hurt a fly!

She had logged into Yggdrasil to say goodbye. To the sea. To the people. To the game. She would've missed it all, and she had already came to terms with the fact she was never going to see anything here ever again. She had resigned herself to having it fade quietly into the nothing, yet...Just a flash of light, and she was barreling down the mountain at speeds that'd make a sports car jealous. She was still in the game right? Then why did it feel so real?

"That's a tree." Swerving to the side, Iva barely managed to miss ramming face first into the large object. Not that it'd matter, the tree completely was engulfed by the raging avalanche, engulfing it entirely. Unfortunately, she failed to register the presence of the rock right in front of her. "Annnd that was a rock." The impact sent her swerving off course, shifting her balance and causing her to slam into the ground and promptly proceed to roll down the mountain side like a snowball.

"Oh well." She silently mused. "I guess this is my life now. Ah, how I love being on the receiving end of death." She supposed she could put a little effort into getting out of this situation, but why would she when she was going to probably be fine regardless. She hated wasting effort on something anyways. A waste of time and energy. Just as the avalanche was about to fully engulf her, she felt the ground roll out from under her as she barreled over a cliff, right into a pool of freezing water. She hit the water with force, sending water splashing in all directions as the remnants of the avalanche finally settled around the large pond.

Ah, she was glad she could breathe underwater. Iva floated beneath the surface of the pond lazily, collecting her thoughts, seemingly unfazed by the previous events.

"If I think about it logically, this is far too weird. Illogical." She mused silently. To anyone that might have been looking she had already floated to the surface. Her seaweed like hair and jellyfish like head pieces were floating listlessly on top of the cold pond. "Did Yggdrasil have sensory effects as accurate as this?" The freezing water on her skin. Feeling every part of her body? She moved her tail, feeling every muscle, every part of it as it moved through the water. Aaah, maybe she should just sleep here. She was quite comfy after all. The cold was quite welcoming and she didn't feel inclined to move about.

...

Swimming over to the edge of the pond, she pulled herself out of the water, sitting at the edge and keeping her legs in the water as she held her 'hands' in front of her. Bulbous growths, bound in flexible yellow string with grotesque blue fingers for teeth. Instinctively, she opened one of the mouths revealing the flexible tongue within.

"...well that's just weird to see in reality." She commented, retracting the tongue. Yet, she didn't feel odd or perturbed at her predicament at all. If anything, she felt great. Far better than she had ever before. This couldn't just be a game any more, could it? She bought her hand to her face, running her tongue over her pale blue skin. She felt herself grin. Rows upon rows of sharp teeth as her head was almost split in half, forming a macabre visage. She didn't know how, why or but she couldn't possibly be in the game anymore. Not with this level of tactile feedback and expressiveness. The cold, the water, the snow...

Returning to a more neutral expression, Iva tapped on one of her earrings. Right, couldn't be too careful. If there was someone around here she couldn't let herself be seen or she might cause some trouble. The earrings of Hotepa could help with that, even if only slightly. It wasn't shapeshifting more than it was imposing a different 'reality' upon a place. A well crafted illusion that the world accepted to be real in favor of something else. It wasn't perfect, and times it might falter and anyone with sufficiently high perception or detection skills wouldn't be fooled, but she was confident. Looking down at her hands, she could see the transformation had been complete. Flexing her fingers, she twirled on the spot, the cold ground feeling mildly uncomfortable on her bare feet as the 'dress' she was wearing settled. How much of her powers persisted? Levitation was a go. What about...?

Suddenly several invisible 'hands' manifest from her back. They worked too, then! Ah how wonderful. Concentrating once more, she condensed the psychic energy into a single sharp blade in one of the hands, slashing downwards as the impossibly sharp mass of psychic energy cut right through a nearby rock.

Huhu. Seemed everything was working just fine, then.

Now, was there anything around her? Concentrating and expanding her minds influence, she began to feel for any sentient life around her. Sensing nothing but animals, she smiled softly. Good. Also bad.

...where was she supposed to be going now?

"Oh wonderful. Dropped into some weird world without any shoes and no direction towards civilization. Could've at least given me some food...I'll starve at this rate..." She complained lightly. At least she didn't have to walk. Levitating herself off the ground, she began moving through the forest, choosing a random direction to move in while searching for anything resembling sentient life.

The Zea of Worlds

~~Ebon Shael & The Wreck of the Eventide~~

@Shoryu@Double

"Wahahah, see!" Shael laughed eagerly, seemingly taking Luna's reply as a confirmation of their understanding. "See, they understand unlike you! With that brain of yours, hee-hee! You should lose it. Would make you smarter!"

"..." Jessiel simply groaned audibly, a deep, low tone. "Regardless, Jester, the rest of the crew can not comprehend such a dark and beautiful tone." Glancing over to Astral, Jessiel bowed lightly, drawing a large circle in the air with one of his hands. Hopefully the intent would come across easily.

"Tsk, fine fine." Shael made a low hum. "I'll handle the speaking. You go help with the cleanup." Nodding, Jessiel left the small trio with a low hum of confirmation. For the most part, the rest of the Ebon seemed to watch their pony guests with curiosity. Now that the Jester had returned, most seemed to relax quite a bit, especially the guards that had been put on patrol and it'd be quite obvious, and luckily for the bat pony they didn't seem to notice his presence.

"Now now...where were we?" Clapping her hands together, she gave her guests an expectant look. They might want that translation circle unless they want a horrible misunderstanding.

"Heh, alright!" Claire reached into her belt, letting her pokemon get some fresh air for now. Ritz and Del were first, followed shortly after by Zeal and Lure. "Break time guys!" The redhead said enthusiastically as Pip accidentally ran into her leg, Ralia trailing along behind her. "And this here is Pip. She's gonna be on the team starting today, so you guys play nice." Claire said, Picking up the Chikorita. Most of the others seemed alright with the Chikorita, save for Lure who simply huffed irritably and decided to buzz off somewhere.

Rude.

"Now hold on there ya little bug," Claire grabbed the Combee before it could fly off too far, holding it under her arm. "Now you wouldn’t wanna be rude to your new teammate, would ya?" Pip wiggled free from her arms and landed on the ground, tossing a few leaves in Lure's direction, causing the bug to deflect them with a strong gust of wind. Chikorita then proceeded to stick her tongue out at the Combee, send a few more flying in her direction only to agitate Lure further, who then proceeded to start chasing her.

Chuckling lightly, Claire pulled out her pokedex and decided to give professor Kalmia a call and see if she could get a hold of her.

"Hey hey, Professor! Future starlet Claire reporting from Stillwood! Guess how many badges this girls got!"

Meanwhile Del seemed complacent enough to simply idly stand near Claire, with Ritz taking interest in the Meganium, slowly floating over and looking up at the large pokemon with big eyes. Ralia had decided to join playing with Lure and Pip, alongside her clones.

It took a couple rings for Kalmia to answer.

‘Pokémon Professor Kalmia of Pureplain speaking,’ Kalmia started out by answering. Claire then said her part. Then Kalmia could answer. ‘… Hiii, Claire! Stillwood, huh. Weeeell~ I may be slightly cheating, because I regularly check the trainer profiles of my trainers and saw you got the Challenge Badge- one heck of a badge to start with, Hector only barely knows what holding back is -but since you're asking, I'm gonna guess you just beat Archie, landing you at two!’ Kalmia guessed excitedly.

"Whahaha!" Claire laughed at Kalmia's suggestion. "Well I'm good but not that good. Hector's the only one I got right now that was a fun battle. Oh, and I also have a Castle Medal from the pokemon in Mt. Strength If that counts, haha!" She briefly recounted a few more snippets of her adventures so far. She hadn't gotten too terribly far in her gym challenges as of now, but she was slowly making her way towards her goal. "Oh, yea! I also met with a few the top Contest Coordinators! I even had a little practice contest with a friend. One of these days I'll be taking that spot myself, heh!" Pausing for a moment to let Kalmia process everything she had said, she continued. "I’m in Stillwood's forest right now. Boy this place is bad for the allergies. Caught a Chikorita though! Who's Archie anyways? Sounds like the name of someone who likes the ocean too much."

Kalmia listened, a bit amazed that Claire apparently met a couple top coordinators already. The bit about Mt. Strength was an interesting tale, Kalmia most certainly was interested in hearing how that went down. Kalmia sounded pleased on the other side hearing about the most recent addition. ‘A Chikorita? Nice. That brings you to six Pokémon, doesn't it?’ Kalmia might have seemed slightly distracted, but refocused at the question. ‘Oh, Archie's the Gym Leader of Stillwood Village, the "Woodland Wanderer". The youngest Gym Leader right now, but he has a certain unnatural ability when it comes to Grass-types, that I'm sure you'll notice when you battle, heh~ Anyways, he typically wanders the forests around Stillwood, away to Silent Forest and even the Endless Forest, he's the one person that's known to be able to walk through there,’ Kalmia explained, sounding like she was smiling.

"Oh, he's a tree hugger then?" Claire chuckled. "Glad I got myself a Chimchar and a few bug types, heh! I'll breeze right by his gym." Taking a brief pause to make sure her pokemon weren't causing too much trouble, Claire continued. "…Hey, you ever heard of a pokemon called Azelf?" A stupid question to ask? Perhaps, but Kalmia could be trusted, couldn't she?

‘I'm sure you will~’ Kalmia said, sounding confident about Claire's chances. Then... Claire asked that. She might be aware of Uxie staring without expression at her from not very far away through closed eyelids. ‘Hm? ...’ There was a pause before Kalmia spoke again. ‘That would be one of the trio that, according to legend, gave their gifts to original humans. One gave emotions, one gave knowledge, one gave willpower... I think Azelf was willpower? I can't tell you more than the legends we learned from schoolbooks, though. We have no recorded sightings of any of them, after all. They may just be legends, as far as we're concerned,’ Kalmia said, though her tone had a tone of curiosity to it.

"Heh, maybe I should've paid better attention in class." Claire couldn't help but to snicker somewhat in a somewhat smug sounding tone as she waved a hand towards Uxie. Well if Uxie was Knowledge, Azelf Willpower, that left Mesprit with Emotion. She was hoping for maybe getting the information a bit easier, but she could at least ask Kalmia for some direction. "Any idea where I could learn some more at?"

‘I think Professor Dunstan of Worldedge City has been studying legendary Pokémon, though I'm unsure if he's actually found anything. He has a pretty big presence in the Information District, middle district of the south side of Worldedge, should be easy to find. Otherwise, there's an academy in Rainrock City full of old books and legends, maybe even Clement could help you out if you go there,’ Kalmia suggests, still curious.

"Hey, Thanks Professor." Ralia had managed to teleport herself on top of Lure who was still chasing Pip. Thrown off balance by the sudden weight, the small bug and psychic type careened right into the legendary pokemon named Uxie.

‘Rainrock City's more closely connected to the ancient culture of Isson and as a consequence its legends, so the Library and Academy there is the place to go if you want to hear about those, but that said, much of what you can find there you can also find with Professor Dunstan, who's basically the man of research in Isson and he's been interested in legendary Pokémon, and you'll find him in Worldedge City, mostly. If he's not off on some research trip, which could happen,’ Kalmia continued, giving some more insight in the different options.

Uxie, through means unknown, could tell that there was hijinks heading its way and simply drifted aside, diagonally up into the air, turning itself to look towards those who had threatened to impact it with a little neutral stare, before turning back to Claire.

‘Though, even if he's off, his research should still be in Worldedge City, if you can convince them you're worthy of reading it,’ Kalmia continued.

"Ah, backtracking is a drag." Claire sighed, giving Ralia and Lure a small frown as they finished up their shenanigans. "Buuuut I don't think I'll have any problem convincing them, heh." Ralia wondered over, so Claire picked her up as Lure shook some dirt off herself and Pip playfully began poking her in the side. "Anyways, Ralia says hi and I should probably get going before I overstay my welcome. Thanks for the help!"

‘Heh, get yourself a capable Flying-type and you won't have to worry about backtracking,’ Kalmia noted with a bit of amusement in her voice. ‘Alright. I'm happy to help. Good luck with whatever you're doing, then. Good luck with Claire, Ralia~!’ Kalmia called, sounding happy.

"Rrral!~" Ralia gave a loud cry of affirmation causing Claire to frown.

"Ye of little faith! I'm the one who needs luck with this little rascal!" Claire harrumphed before laughing. "Bye Professor!" And with that, she ended the call, stuffing her pokedex back in her bag. Best not to linger here before someone else came along and messed things up. Turning to Uxie, she gave the legendary a grin.

"Alright, well I'll be going now. You stay safe, y'hear?" Claire said, poking the pokemon on the head. "And if ya need me or something, I dunno...use your psychic powers or something to tell me. I'll come running no matter what, okay?" Gathering up her pokemon and saying bye to the Meganium, Claire headed back to Stillwood. Lets see if this Archie was as good as Kalmia said he was.

Bloodlines of Steel and Snow (An Overlord RP)

Woop~

I'll see about getting a post up this evening as soon as my brain decides it wants to do things.

EDIT:
If anyone wants to have a history with the handsy shoggoth, do tell. I'll be more than happy to work things out.

Bloodlines of Steel and Snow (An Overlord RP)

Hope ya like hands

The Player

Name:
Rachel Wynne

Age:
34

Gender:
Female

Bio:
Rachel has been a loner most of her life. Not really out of any desire to be mind you, she just never really 'got' people. One of those awkward people who never could really seem to get her life straightened out to a reasonable degree. So she spent a lot of her free time watching old horror movies, being into mythology and video games. While she wasn't a huge player, they were great for casual fun times - at least until she stumbled upon Yggdrasil. After stumbling upon the MMO, she was immediately hooked. A good stress reliever, and she was finally able to at least appear slightly confident and not a completely awkward mess. In fact, she was rather good at the whole MMO and Yggdrasil thing.

When it was announced the game would shut down, she was particularly upset. Most of her other friends had left, and feeling more than a little depressed she decided to stick around until the very last moment.

Connection to Taylor/Nara:
Friend from Yggdrasil. Rachel's never been good at keeping friends, let alone keeping them, what with her melancholic slightly defeatist attitude and love of the macabre. It was difficult to really connect with other people. Taylor however, seemed quite interested in being her friend. Which Rachel readily accepted.

The Avatar

"Squid(?) lady that's a little too handsy & Lazy.

Name:
Ivaathr'krorh

Appearance:
Iva's avatar is...something to behold, really. Standing at five foot seven, It appears to be some abhorrent mix of eel, seaweed, and most notably, fingers. Yep. Fingers. Lots of them. The humanoid fleshy parts would be quite attractive, if it wasn't for everything else. Her body constantly covered in a slimy, slippery film making it difficult to get a good grip on her. Not to mention the black eel parts which resemble some form of ceremonial dress. Her body temperature is naturally cool and cold. She lacks hands, though and instead has had them replaced by a mouth with a prehensile tongue which are just as dextrous as hands.

Origin:
YGGDRASIL

Race:
Heteromorphic - Brain Eater

Gender:
Female????

Character Level:
Yggdrasil:
100

Alignment:
-300 (Neutral Evil)

Racial Class:

Brain Eater
Dominator
Gluttonous Monster

Job Class:

Eldritch Scion
Mind Melter
Psionic Savant

Strengths and Weaknesses:
Iva's abilities are completely ranged based, and she is primarily a Magic Caster. She utilizes a variety of spells that directly affect a persons mind and more metal based abilities that she uses with little effort. Such as powerful telekinesis, Psionic blasts, and such abilities. She normally lets her extra 'hands' do the fighting and only move should she need too. These abilities are supplemented by her impressive healing abilities which means she can go for quite a bit longer than people give her credit for. Her favorite ability however, is the ability to dominate a lesser beings mind and have it fight for her. One shouldn't underestimate her physical abilities however. She's quite the slippery little fish. Literally, and if she gets any of her mouths on you...well, game over man. You now have a baby cephalapod in your head.

That said, while the mind has been strengthened the physical body has suffered. While she is wily and knows how to best leverage her weaker body to retain grip on someone, the amount of physical force her body can exert isn't impressive. She's quite frail, physically speaking, and would loose to most in a contest of raw strength. Couple that with low defense to physical attacks, she suffers in close quarters usually.

Equipment:
Crown of the Yellow King:
Protects against mental effects, nullifying them completely. It enhances the wearers focus, allowing their minds to stay clear and sharp at all times and have a preternatural understanding of most magical abilities they see. Divine Class.

Earrings of Hotepa:
A pair of divine-class earrings. Allows the user to have a limited shape shifting ability, allowing them to change their appearance within limits. Those with particularly advanced scrying or those with the ability to see through illusions will see through this quite easily. Using the item causes one's abilities to more appropriately reflect the illusion as well, should one so happen to look.

Abilities:

Gluttonous Feasting:
A ability that heals a person directly proportionate to the amount of flesh they eat. Takes the life of others and converts it into life for herself. Any physical damage dealt to a creature by any of her mouths will be drained of life and instead transferred to her to heal, or temporarily strengthen her own physical abilities. Can use this ability to purge toxins from the body.

Eldritch Hands:
She can manifest upwards of ten different psychically controlled arms and hands. These hands can exert as much force as a human in top physical condition, and as they are ethereal can not be defended against by most people. They are just as dexterous and can easily be controlled. Feels no pain and can effortlessly replace them and use them to defend/attack. They are usually invisible to the naked eye.

Mind Blade:
A simple spells that turns psychic energy into an ethereal blade able to be used to attack with. While it is named 'blade' if one is skilled enough, they could shape this into any physical weapon they desire. Invisible to the naked eye.

Psionic Shriek:
A wide, AoE Attack that directly affects a persons mind. Anyone within a large radius will find their minds assaulted by an intense pain that causes severe brain hemorrhaging without sufficient protection. Can focus on a single target to make it more effective. Causes migraines even in those who defend against it.

Mind Jammer:
An ability that hampers ones ability to think and numbs the mind, effectively making them slow to react, have trouble thinking of solutions to possible problems, and generally just makes them lose some of their mental faculties. Strength can vary from simple sluggishness, to making one completely 'blank' entirely, forgetting what they were just doing and erasing parts of their memories. Especially useful on Magic Casters.

Psionic Barrier:
A magical ability that places a powerful barrier around the target that repels any incoming attack be it physical or magical in nature.

Overwrite:
A particularly devious ability that at its core, simply brainwashes the target sending them into a fugue state following a single command of the caster, or entirely overwriting their free will to make it more agreeable to the caster. Can only used on single targets, one at a time and either physical contact or direct eye contact for a few seconds is required. The more its successfully used on a person, the longer it lasts unless the person has been thoroughly cleansed of its effects.

How a normal human would view this character:
Completely utterly terrified, most likely, should they know what she truly looks like. Horrific beings such as herself have little in the way of allies and love. At best, she'd likely be shunned, at worst, hunted. The earrings will likely help much, but its not a perfect illusion and sometimes things get weird. Her body temperature will stay the same, and she'll always have a clammy and mildly sticky feeling on her skin.

Whoops, sorry about that. That's what I get for rushing a CS at 1AM at night.

Fixed that for ya. Basically she's a fish with about as much physical strength & durability as one.

@BurningDaisies@Shiyonichi

Yooo, here's the CS. Did someone say Lovecraft?

Do tell if there are problems. I'll fix stuff tomorrow after I wake up cuz I'm about to pass out and maybe rewrite the history, but that's the basic gist of everything. Might write up a new-world NPC.

Connection to <insert name here>:
Detail how your character is connected to at least one other character that you don't control, who participates in this RP. Were they friends in real life? Rivals? Were they teleworkers for the same soul-crushing corporate employer? Did one cheat on the other's brother/sister/cousin? How/Why do they know each other?
Work this out amongst yourselves.

Oh hi

I remember you & the last RP we were in!

Razelia: The Kingdom Of Magic (FINISHED)

~~Seleth~~

@PaulHaynek@Polaris North

---

Seleth frowned, but didn't say anything as Varjan's mom left. Sighing, she lifted her spear and rested it on her shoulder. Some people just didn't know the meaning of the word 'respect'. Humph. Well, she was slowly learning it herself after all so she supposed she should't be saying too much. But leaving something like this left a bad taste in her mouth. Turning away from the door, Seleth walked to up to the meditation chambers, saying a brief hello to the head priest before settling into meditation for the evening.

It was difficult to get her mind to settle. The words of the knight she faced wouldn't leave her head. An omen? Some sort of...sign of something to come? Perhaps it was the rambling of a mad man, but whatever the case was she couldn't just shove the issue out of the way. Plus, there was the rest of the tournament. She had passed the first round, but...was it really because he had gone easy on her? She put everything she had into that battle. Was she really that weak?

The rest of the evening passed in relative peace, thankfully.

Soon enough the second day of the tournament dawned.
