I was going to say something like: "Dude it's like noon." Then I saw it was 5.

What the fuck happened.

@Lord Orgasmo

That means that life is good, almost every shift I have passes through that time.

So we have food, we have wood, we even have a few potential camp names. Now the question is how to find a way so that we can kick some proper ass against the Dark lord and anyone else who wants to get in our way? Because we seem to be lacking in the Orange department. We'll need a new plan.

I could try some stuff, my last (And only post so far) Was just to help set things up for my character with some world interactions.

POSTED! Though I just thought, how will Kathryn and Caractacus find the camp with the field protecting it, will they follow their new pet?

Kathryn

Kathryn tried to hold back a chuckle as Caractacus tried to find the best way to describe his undead army. Though it did make sense, they acted as more or less a collection if tools for him. The idea still made her uneasy, but she had worked with all sorts of situations before. Then she caught him looking at her bow, and then offering to help her with her job. "Hunting? I mean I wouldn't mind the help. But my skills with a bow are not great still." She pulled out the knife that was partially hidden by her armor and showed it to Caractacus. The blade was only a few inches long, with a handle just a bit smaller. On the blade were some engravings, most of it had been scratched out from the knife's many uses though. "This will normally cover all the range I need. Been my favorite knife since I was a little girl." She slowly put it back in it's sheath.

She smiled for a moment though. "I'd love your help though, in this world, there is nothing better then an ally who is willing to help you." She was about to pat him on the shoulder when she heard the rustling from the trees. Out of reaction she raised her shield and pulled the mace off from her hip, ready to cause severe harm to whatever was coming.

As she readied to attack, a large creature, one she had seen before at least once, but couldn't identify, had revealed itself. She put her mace in a position to take out it's leg first. She found the best way to take on something larger then herself was to knock it down first, and if the first blow didn't bring her foe to their knees then normally they were startled enough to a good blow to the head. That normally brought down her enemies fast. But something was off, unlike most creatures like this one, it didn't attack, it waited.

Kathryn continued to investigate the situation, she was surrounded by a necromancer, a ton of dead people, and a creature that could potentially do some decent harm. And... It was holding something. A piece of parchment? She put the mace back on her waist and brought her sheild to her front so she could get close while avoiding a possible direct attack. Her hand slowly reached out to grab the paper, hoping this wasn't a trap.

She grabbed it fast and jumped back pulling her Kukri just in case. And again, nothing. "This seems odd. Be ready to run like hell back to the camp." She opened up the crumpled parchment and started reading it. "Odd way to send a message, but I think this is from our people. They seem worried about our time out." She slowly put away her blade and looked at Caractacus. "Maybe we should head back, but I have full intentions on keeping that in my sights." She motioned to the creature. She would make her way back to camp when Caractacus was ready. Leaving him behind out here didn't seem like the best idea. There was too much going on.

I meant to get a post up yesterday, the site was down when i got on... I am working on one now! :D

Book of Aeos (V1)

I am visiting family right now, so right now the plan is I will get something up by..... not sure what to call it due to timing but let's say Tuesday, but if it gets busy I will have something up by Wednesday after work. Assuming that I don't break more expensive things. Then it ma be sooner. Then I may also spend my time working on finding a new job, but so far I think tomorrow or Wednesday?

I've noticed I've been typing pretty big posts compared to everyone else. I should probably stop that, but hey, I don't think it's bad at all.

@Aquanthe

Gives us more to read, and it is better that they have more context then less. So if you can do it comfortably then keep doing what you are doing.

Kathryn

Oh boy, was all she could think as he spoke. He was scared shitless, what she wondered though was it of the situation at hand or was it at her? Or was it at something she had no understanding of? Probably the last one. Maybe he was planning to pull something against the newly formed Fellowship? Would that be why he is so scared? For now though she would just keep a watchful eye of her surroundings and the dead. Seemed that the man would be doing that himself.

He eventually introduced himself as Caractacus. "Car-act-a-cus" She attempted to sound out his name. She figured she was pretty close. Caractacus was an interesting name, though she knew a lot of strange names. "And I was asked to hunt yes, but truth be told I am not a big fan of bows. Or that decent with them. I just have it because some asshole was trying to taunt me from slightly out of my reach." she would leave the part out about how they were less them five feet away in eight inches of water. "But I figured I would try anyways, worst comes to worse I could always take my knife and take care of a bird or something with it? I mean, much bigger and throwing a knife will only do so much." She stopped for a bit and smiled. "That is if I were aiming for a clean kill." She laughed a bit, then stopped realizing her joke was leaning a bit on the darker side of humor. "Sorry, seemed funnier in my head...."

She looked at the undead army slowly but more or less.... kinda.... they were trying hard to gather wood. "Do you need any help? Worst comes to worse with my job and we go a single night without food, I am sure we could find something decent later if we really had to. But I don't really like the idea of freezing to death." Making small talk was hard for Kathryn, she simply tried to smile and act nice... This was probably the hardest task of her life.

She took off her helmet letting her ungroomed hair free as a sign of good faith, this man seemed scared of his own shadow. Or maybe it was the only thing he wasn't afraid of? "So what's it like to have these guys around you? Doesn't it get a little..." She was going to say creepy, but necromancers didn't normally seem bothered by the dead. "A little strange?"
