Numair sighed at the sound of a scream. His right hand instinctively moving to the hilt of his rapier. Spinning to face a new danger, his sword was already half-drawn before he saw that the only threat was his travelling companions. "Butt knuckle." Numair al-Din swore under his breath. He agreed to join this travelling group because he thought they were good people, but now he found one of them crippling children. At least now the other two were seeming to help out. Numair was torn. By oath, he should go over, but he knew if he went over to help, he would just be getting in the way. There was also the fact that he wasn't sure which of the group possessed what magic. If he went over and found out which member had crippled the boy, he would be oath-bound to take action. He swore again as he turned to continue on his way to the tavern.
As he walked, his mind went back to his training and time at The Obelisk Of Stresior.
The muffled sounds of wooden swords clashing against wooden swords, steel armour and flesh could be heard in the learning hall as a young Numair sat listening to his lessons. Mokci strode backwards and forwards across the front of the learning hall. "As a knight of the Order, your first duty is to protect the innocent." Numair nodded. He wanted to help people. "Those that harm the innocent should not be spared your wrath. Of course, you should be a good person, but there are certain things you are oath-bound to avenge." Numair was confused. Only twelve, he was still fairly naive about the world as a whole. "Like what?" Mokci chuckled at the question. He admired the boy's naivety. It was a nice change of pace. Though he knew it wouldn't last long. "Only the truly despicable. I will explain another time. For now, how would you like to learn some magic?" Numair stood up and nodded enthusiastically.
His mind coming back to the present. "Only the truly despicable." He muttered under his breath. Crippling an innocent boy sure fit that description. Such a pure soul. Such potential. Snuffed out by one of his travelling companions. Something he would have to keep in mind. Something he planned on resolving in town, with the local authorities to back him up.
Ryan followed through to the kitchen. Stopping by his room first to grab his bag of food. "So, lunch?" He said opening his bag to see what food he had left. Tossing bags of candy and chips around. Not really finding anything fit for lunch. He saw the notes on the fridge and sighed. He thought someone was missing during training but didn't really think about it. He walked over to the pile of snacks strewn over the bench and grabbed a bag of corn chips. It may not have been healthy, but it would have to do. He was growing bored. Everything was coming to a standstill. He joined for the excitement of a quest, but so far they'd just been hanging out in some old house. He needed excitement. He thought as he ate a handful of chips.
Ryan strolled over to the commotion with the new girl. "Divine Bussiness?" Ryan questioned, interjected into the conversation. "Sounds vague and unconvincing." He said. He pulled a cigarette from his pocket and put it to his lips. Snapping his fingers, the cigarette lit itself. Taking a drag, he blew the smoke out into the group. "Seems like the last thing this quest needs is more people. You can't seem to get anything down with the current amount of people. Too many moving parts." Ryan said before taking another drag from his cigarette.
@Sanity43217! From how I have read the situation, Numair hasn't made it so far just yet in the time that has passed since he left the group. I would think he is still within hearing range of the commotion. Would you agree?
Yeah, I’d say he heard it. I’ll have a post up later today.
Name: Tony Archer Age: 16 Bio: Tony Archer was born to Poppy Archer and the Dragon God Ryūjin. Born and raised on the Sunshine Coast, both Tony and his mother were surfers on the Queensland Coast. Not even a little Japanese, Poppy Archer took a trip to Japan for a surf competition but fell off a wave and landed on some rocks. Knocked out, and bleeding she would have died. Ryūjin admired her and saved her from drowning. Taking her to his Coral Palace, they fell in love and had a wonderful night together. When Poppy returned to the Surf Competition, everyone wondered how she had survived, and where she had been, but she kept quiet about what really happened. Nine months later, Tony came along. Living his life on the Sunshine Coast, he took to the water like breathing. Spending most days out in the surf. One day, when he was out in the ocean, he attacked by a shark. Bit him right in the torso, but before it could bite again and kill Tony, it backed off. Ryūjin then appeared and took him back to the Coral Palace, and nursed him back to health. Ryūjin then went and got Poppy and they explained what had happened, and where they were. Sending him off to Camp Fujin.

@Sanity43217 They're pirates. You think they really listen to what people tell them to do? XD
Officially, they do not raid merchant ships as part of the treaty they signed. They simply go in search of treasure and artifacts so they can get rich.
Unofficially, they're pirates, and they do what they want as long as they don't get caught.
Edit because I remembered a thing: More than that, this rule only applies to pirates who join The Consortium. There are still pirates who don't affiliate themselves with that organization.
Fair enough. Just seems weird that the Pirates made a Peace Treaty while they were in a position of power, especially one that they straight up plan on breaking.
@Shiva Hey, this seems interesting, but if Pirates cannot fire unless fired upon, how exactly do they do piracy? It just seems like stealing from merchant's vessels is much harder if they know that if they don't fire on them, they can't really do anything.
Jason was a good guy. Going out of his way to help innocents, despite not having any powers at the time. Up until the incident, while working for Aegis, where he was killed, he was changed. His mind warped, and brain washed. For a few years, he worked as an Assassin for Legion of Hydra. During his time working for Legion of Hydra he was a remorsless killing machine.

Backstory:
Jason Buchanan Barnes was born to a poor family. Turning to crime to support himself and his parents. HE did try and help those who couldn't help themselves. Stealing from the rich, and giving to the poor. It was one night when he was twelve that he attempted to steal a tire from an AEGIS vehicle. When he was caught by an Agent (called Bruce Todd), the Agent liked Jason's courage and began training his to one day become an AEGIS Agent. Jason went on to become a successful Agent until one day he was attacked and captured by The Legion of HYDRA. They faked Jason's death and began brainwashing him. They injected him with a variation of the Super Soldier Serum. Sending him around the world to further his training. He was forced to work as an assassin for the Legion of Hydra, where they stole various tech from Stark Labs and Wayne Corps as well as killing various politicians under the name Red Soldier. He eventually broke the mind control. Starting to redeem his actions for when he was working for the Legion of Hydra. Under the name 'Outlaw.'
Special Skills (if any):
Master Martial Artist: Jason Barnes is a highly skilled combatant, due to having been rigorously and extensively trained by AEGIS. Although he was always more of a brawler, following his faked death he travelled the world to continue his training, learning every form of martial arts he could. Later on, his combat skill was further improved, as he was also trained by Lady Shiva, Task Master and the All Caste and was considered their most successful pupil. Demonstrating himself to be far more skilled than before, he is capable of defeating multiple opponents such as a room full of Russian-mobsters, a room full of ninjas, Spyral trainees, undead Talons, and Metahumans simultaneously by manipulating or breaking limbs or spines, and can even fight blind. He was even capable of holding his own for a very long time against Green Knight but was ultimately defeated. Jason's fighting style focuses on brutality, strength, and speed; he is shown to have mastered over half-a-dozen fighting styles and has proven to be a master of Aikido, Judo, Capoeira, Silat, Kung Fu, Karate, Ninjutsu, Savate, Krav Maga, Muay Thai, and Taekwondo. He has effectively combined the martial arts he has mastered into a unique harmonious style that suits his strengths. He also knows a unique technique taught to him by Lady Shiva and an old punching technique that'll temporarily stop someone's supernatural/magical enhancements and powers.
Master Marksman: Having been trained by AEGIS and Legion of HYDRA, Jason has perfect aim when using firearms. To increase his skill with firearms he went a step further than AEGIS on his journey around the world to learn from the masters how to kill a target with different types of guns. His precision and accuracy are superior to most AEGIS Agents. Jason is highly skilled in throwing projectiles, firearms, and archery; almost on par with Deadshot's. Red Soldier is equally skilled in marksman with throwing projectiles such as shuriken, throwing knives, and batarangs, as they could be utilized in intense or time-dependent combat situations. He is capable of shooting a man at a long distance, whilst being physically attacked by several other opponents. Jason rarely ever misses his targets 9 times out of 10, unless it is inhumanly difficult or outmatched.
Expert Tactician & Strategist: Although contradictory to his once childish nature, Jason's learned to survey his targets before attacking and killing them. He spends long hours scouting targets and assuring that they deserve his brand of justice. He is well-versed in military-grade tactics, strategies, and protocols.
Master Spy: Due to his training with AEGIS and Legion of Hydra and his further training around the world he is a master of stealth, assassination, espionage, infiltration, disguise and sabotage. Jason is capable of breaching very high-security facilities with ease and without being detected.
Expert Escape Artist: Jason was once heavily chained, held at gunpoint by two men and surrounded by a total of four armed men and managed to slip free. When his body was securely chain-locked in place by Ra's al Ghul, he still escaped in plain sight without much effort. He was also sure of himself that he could break out of Belle Reve the most secure place on the planet.
Weapon Master: He can use every type of blade, firearm, explosive and heavy military weapons like pistols, shotguns, automatic rifles, sniper rifles, grenades, tasers, and rocket launchers. He uses also knives, shurikens, throwing knives, swords, sticks, staffs, and batarangs and can even turn something as simple as a pen into a deadly weapon. Jason has even showcased high proficiency with whips against an opponent with superhuman speed.
Expert Acrobat: In his training as Red Soldier, he had been taught acrobatics and gymnastics routines. He further practices his abilities as the Outlaw.
Skilled Swordsman: Jason has been shown to be skilled enough to hold his own against the Green Arrow in a sword fight until he ultimately lost. He was also able to keep up with Ra's Al Ghul and match him for an in a sword battle extended period of time.
Master Detective: Being trained by AEGIS, Jason has shown some expertise as a detective. Jason is highly skilled in observation, forensic investigation, and inductive and deductive reasoning of the highest calibre; surpassed only by a handful.
Multilingualism: Taught by AEGIS and Legion of Hydra, Jason is fluent in several languages having spoken English, Spanish, Japanese, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and various others with Russian being his weakest.
Expert Computer Hacker: Having been heavily taught by Legion of Hydra in computers and networks, Jason was easily able to hack into Wayne Corp and Stark Labs computers in less than five minutes, and bypass the US government's military database.
Genius-Level Intellect: After being adopted by Bruce, Jason received an excellent education and tutoring from both private tutors and Bruce thus, has deep knowledge in many subjects, including Science, Math, Medicine, Geography, Criminology, World History and English. He has also proven to be a highly efficient criminal strategist and organised as the Red Soldier. Jason is shown to be highly skilled in mechanics, sciences, business management, as he was performing maintenance and upgrading his motorcycle, car, and helicopter. He also has a college GPA of 94.8, can understand/study the Tamaranean language, and is even smart enough to track Starfire's alien spacecraft while it was cloaked.
Expert Intimidator: He was able to intimidate Gotham mob bosses and Black Mask. He is also very feared by the thugs on the streets of Gotham. He is also famous in organized crime all around the world for his ruthlessness and brutality. Although Green Knight has the edge in the 'fear' category, he is still highly intimidating due to his Green Knight-like mental and physical prowess plus the willingness to kill.
Indomitable Will: Jason is able to function while tolerating massive amounts of physical pain and won't stop a mission until it's done.
Expert Bomb Assembly and Defusal: Taught by a world-renowned bomb expert in Russia, Jason is able to assemble and defuse a wide variety of conventional explosive devices, from improvised to military-grade designs.
Expert Vehicular Driver: Jason has expertise in evasive driving and combat piloting a variety of vehicles from motorcycles, cars, boats, aeroplanes, and helicopters to being trained in the Middle East by an ace pilot to fly helicopters and planes.
Other:
AEGIS still believes Jason Buchanan Barnes to be dead.
The name on the lease for his Apartment is James Todd.
Jason does not believe in Magic, or at the very least, distrusts it.

"Sounds like execution with extra steps." He paused. Trying to think it over. "It'd be a pretty good spectacle." He turned to see the others who had accepted. "So, die in a blaze of glory, or get absolved of my crimes?" Looking up at the king, he smirked. His eyes becoming solid black. Standing up suddenly, straining against the chains. Causing a couple of knights to draw their swords and place them in front of his neck. "Damn, Son of a bitch, I'm in." Chuckling he relaxed back down, and the knights relaxed. "So, I guess, I, Razol, Sin of Greed accept your offer."
