Scattered Shades: Arcadia Chronicles

@13org Teknog and Arcadian soldiers wield magical guns that fire A/A or Arcane Ammo. Raw arcane gunfire exerts enough force to break skin and bone, but is not as fast, or as accurate, as modern weaponry.

There are arcane sniper rifles however, but they are very rare, expensive, and slow to fire.

A Hero Tale: Lystra

"Sorry, sorry!" Emilia whimpered, pulling herself over the pools edge and extending a hand to Help Lystra up as well, "I don't know where we are, but this isn't what I wanted to show you! Quick, up there!" Emilia whispered, pointing her free hand up at the wall- or the sideways flooring as it were, where a second door sat, with a dull light pouring out of it. It was the only light in the underground room at all, and barely highlighted the ornate features of the area. Emilia moved her finger along the room, pointing out a torn up section of wall where the rock face seemed climbable. "It's in that room, you know how to rock climb, right?" Emilia asked, wanting to avoid pushing her friend even further than she already had. Emilia was practically a prodigy when it came to this sort of stuff; Swimming, climbing, running, so much so that she was ignorant of Lystra's capabilities. Her air-headed nature fit her well, though. Modesty was a nice trait on the talented, after all.

Above the water's surface, everyone had already begun to leave. The sun was only a couple of hours away from setting, and the night held dangers on occasion that nobody was eager to face. Nobody except Kalo, anyways, who'd still found himself within the rocky outcropping at the lake's edge. Kalo punched the face of a boulder repeatedly, until his knuckles began to bleed, grunting with each strike. He stopped for a moment, and turned towards the opposite end of the rocky field.

"Why are you watching me?" He asked, irritably. A figure shifted from behind a nearby collection of rocks, but didn't reveal itself. "Come out!" Kalo demanded. What he saw afterwards made him cock back one of his eyebrows and take an aggressive stance.

"For one so skilled, you retain a deafening amount of pride."

A Hero Tale: Mikhael

"I hope so," Ezekial muttered, raising his right arm readily. Lucas put quite a bit of weight on his shoulder, making it very difficult to move, but he still had access to his magic. Even if he couldn't use his short sword, Ezekial was a formidable user of Arcana, possibly near the level of Maya herself in his own field of study.

As they got closer, Mikhael and Ezekial could see what they were. Hundreds or thousands of little millipedes, all bright red and skittering through the roots and leaves near their feet. The grew closer and closer, moving to climb the feet of the knights. Ezekial aimed his palm at the ground nearby, and released a torrent of cold air that froze a considerable amount of the approaching critters, but they easily flanked him and went for Mikhael as well. Ezekial began charging his magical power again, but was taken aback by the sheer number they were facing. "I can't freeze them all," Ezekial grunted, "What can we do?"

A Hero Tale: Mikhael

@RyuShura Oh damn it, I forgot to write the part where Ezekial found and picked up Henry's glasses, ahaha. Now he seems suspicious xD

A Hero Tale {Complete}

Jenso's fist struck the imp out of the air, but the puddle beneath him lashed out with tentacles, and the other two imps jumped at him right afterwards.

@13org

If anyone wants to read the old version, you can do so here: roleplayerguild.com/topics/90802-scatt..

You do not need to, by any means, read the entire thread, or any of it really, as all important information is found in this thread's first OOC post. Anything missing with be in the first post of the IC.

Scattered Shades: Arcadia Chronicles

@Necrophage@Jensoman@Hatman1801

You guys can assume that the events at Diver's paradise, and Xena Rockfields, both took place. However, due to whimsley's disappearance off the face of the fucking planet without any warning (Genuinely worried he's dead or something) The events with Survey group 1 have been entirely retconned. Sydney still exists, Luke's around, but Alvios no longer exists.

Nechrophage, you don't have to RP the same character, but I will retconning his meeting with Sulfrax if you do. The 'swimmers' existence is also not known IC yet.

For everyone else, there will be a summary recounting these events in the first IC post, don't worry.

A Hero Tale: Oswald

@Necrophage I went through a phase myself where I wasn't really paying attention to RPG that much, but it's all good now.

Scattered Shades: Arcadia Chronicles

@Necrophage WE are continuing from the old version, with small retcons here and there, mostly in regards to characters being removed from existence, and some not ending up dead so early on.

Scattered Shades: Arcadia Chronicles

Only waiting on a couple more sheets, then I'll get to work on the IC.
