I'd offer Alessia since she's a non-combatant, but she is also a fair distance away and I cannot think of a good reason for her to approach the front lines right now.
New Zealand, aka Middle Earth.

And Bark I was not trying to deny you the idea or anything. A seal sounds like a good idea.

If anything I'm incredibly happy you are gonig with Kalesia, as it might give me more to do with Alessia (assuming you don't run to the other side of the world of course...)
At present there hasn't been anything specified as an object to indicate that status, but given the size of the Empire it would certainly not be unreasonable to have such a thing.

With it he'd be able to fool most people, though those in the know about the current state of the Nobility would see through simply possessing an item. That would be quite a small number of people though. Alessia would be one of them, and in fact, she may even know of his particular case (the outsiders view at least) if you take that road...

The key thing to remember with Kalesian nobility is that it is not guaranteed that one will inherit the status - the full write up is in this post if you're interested.
No Bite and All Bark said
Sorry i haven't been posting lately, I've been really busy adjusting to school again.On the hand of the RP, would anyone like to help me decide the location of the noble starry once killed? As in, which kingdom?Because he has a way to fit in to that kingdom, so i was trying to decide where that would relate to the war but i don't want to step on anyones toes.


It could well have been in Kalesia if you want, Kalesian Nobles may be selected based on merit rather than purely hereditary, but there is both a hereditary aspect and plenty of reason why some of them might not be the nicest people. The selection is, after all, made without much respect to how cruel or callous a person is.

Also killing one is, while generally a rarish occurence, still an act likely to get you in a fair bit of trouble.
Not to mention try to explain to a skeptical populace that they didn't mean to kill a whole lot of civilians, which is gonna be Alessia's job by the way.
There were many rocks bouncing off the bottom of the armour, some got through. The Evoker is either crippled for life, or, more likely, dead. You accomplished your goal of taking her out.

You did however place your character in the single most dangerous position anywhere in the current limits of the RP, and shouted out 'Bring it on!' in both the IC and the OOC. There are consequences to that. They need not be death, but fighting will most likely result in death.

There is a reason why the Kalesian army is winning here, and it is not because they are invulnerable. They siezed all the strategic advantages. When the Othean army (the actual army, not the defenders of Amaryth) gets its act together and challenges them on the field of battle, things will be quite different, but here, nothing short of Kheris hopped up on all those souls hes been eating for a great many decades is gonig to stop them entirely.
You do realise the Processus is at the Imperial command post.... A long way away. Well clear of the battle. Thats why we need the farseer and couriers in order to coordinate the troops...
Collab from Ellri and I is up.
The ripples in the ground moved forwards out of the protective shell at an increasing rate. Jana smiled to herself, for she was showing her loyalty to the empress, may she live forever. Through the two narrow, foot-sized holes in the bottom of the metallic shell, she could feel the wonderful texture of the earth as it vibrated to her command. Nothing could stop the gates crumbling now. Nothing. Already she could feel through the earth that the gates were weakening. Her waves were gaining more and more space to move. She smiled.

Suddenly there was a massive surge of energy in the ground right beneath her feet. Jana had no idea what it was, not what it would do. She had never before felt anything like it. It was almost like her own surges, but foreign somehow. it did not really make much sense. Less than a blink of an eye after she first felt it, she heard loud pinging noises of rocks striking the bottom of the hull. Just as she realized it had to be an enemy evoker, one of the untrained ones, the rocks started striking closer. She screamed in agony as one grazed her right leg. stuffing a bit of leather between her teeth, she forced herself to continue. Then without warning, she felt a strange blending of energy, just as a pair of rocks struck both her ankles at great velocity. through the narrow slits in the floor, she saw the horrifying image as her legs bent where they should not, bent back underneath the flooring. The inexplicable surge was accompanied by her purest scream of utter agony, for having both legs shattered and mangled like that was pain beyond words. The surge of energy, created by the enemy evoker, somehow merged with her own evocation. One final, massive wave shot out as she lost contact with the earth. It was greater than any she had ever created before. She knew instinctively that not even walls could stand against such. Her shell was thrown back by it, and as she lost consciousness, she wondered what it looked like from the outside.

Only a short time before this, a courier had arrived in Alessia’s appropriated building from the other side of the city claiming the Dread Omen was beginning to spread too far into the city. One of the perils of wielding her power in such an unknown area, it seemed, was that the boundaries of it would often shift irregularly, especially in areas that were both out of her sight and never before seen by her eyes. She attempted a correction, but rather than hope she could maintain it from where she was, Alessia decided to join the Processus and make use of the farseers talent. A birds view of the city would surely help her to maintain the area of the spell more easily, which was vital for the civilian population, even if it meant being in the presence of the Processus more than necessary.

She arrived just in time to see a close up view of the gate assault, witnessing the metal shell hiding a battle evoker rattle and shake violently before a huge wave moved through the ground directly ahead of it. The farseer brought the view higher as this happened, and Alessia witnessed the gate, sections of the adjoining walls and countless buildings behind them collapse in miniature, making for an eerie display when scarcely a moment later the colossal rumble of uncounted massive stones falling reached the assembled command force.

When the rumbling stopped, she released a breath she had not realised she had been holding. Extending from the point at which the evoker had sat, a huge fan of destruction had been carved into the city, and already the Kalesian soldiers were storming into the breach to take advantage of it. The Processus was barking orders, troop movements of all kinds, and from what Alessia could tell, none of them concerned with the civilians that were undoubtedly caught in the swathe of destruction - or the evoker who had not exited the metal shell after the wave. Alessia knew how their commander felt about Evokers, and anyone ranked lower than her in general, and could tell that the poor evoker would likely be sacrificed in the furtherance of efficiency. She may not have been able to issue any orders to help the Othean civilians in the rubble, but at least she could save the Evoker, or escort her to safety if she was simply hiding in the armoured shell while the battle raged.

She took one of the order couriers aside and gave him orders to forward to one of the reserve Kalbeast units, they were to reach the armoured shell as quickly as possible and drag it out of the immediate vicinity of the battle, ascertain the state of the evoker inside, and call for the battlefield surgeons if necessary. No faithful servant of the Empress, may she live forever, would needlessly die if Lady Alessia Rezalla-Rhidian had anything to say about it.
Well normally I'd volunteer to manage the Othean defense effort myself to take some workload off you Sparks, but given that I have a vested interest in quick Kalesian victory, it wouldn't exactly be the fairest of showings on their part.
