Description:
SpoilerColumbus takes many forms. It can be anything from a old man limping down an alley to a lively young girl skipping down a busy street. Most people who meet it don't even know they have met a being of raw psionic energy.
Columbus usually takes the form of a man in his mid twenties with scars up and down his arm. He appears to have seen many great battles and lived through them all. He has short brown hair and what appears to be a growing beard.
He also takes the form of a female sometimes. A teenage girl wearing nice clothes who is great with singing. She is very lively and has long flowing red hair.
Finally it can appear as a young boy, no older than 15 who is covered in ash and is very strong. He has longer blonde hair and wears a dirty shirt and pants.
Don't let it fool you. It may have many weak looking persona but it is a very powerful, and very dangerous entity of pure psionic energy.
Columbus may seem interested in things sometimes, but it is simply due to his thirst for knowledge of humans and other races of the material plane. He is very cunning, devious, and he knows how to trick someone, or if need be force his will upon them.
Description
SpoilerFaltora is a cynical dry lich pixie. He often dresses himself in long tan robes to similar to desert attire regardless of his immunity to the desert heat. He has this tattooed on his right hand. A symbol of his guild Fairy Tail. Short with withered skin pressed tightly over his skin it is quite clear that Faltora is undead. Usually though Faltora flies through towns invisible with Akkun as both can maintain their invisible form indefinitely.
Faltora is very harsh, blunt yet can be relaxed. He finds great pleasure in the company of friends but it takes much to be treated as a friend by him. If anything threatens him personally it does not bother him much but he will fly into a frenzy if anything insults Fairy Tail or anyone he considers a close friend.
A slight, cloaked figure, Flutter appears no more than a young boy until he pulls back his hood. Underneath, a large hooked beak screams for attention, while large dark, bulbous eyes stare out menacingly. Using his disguise ability, however, Flutter usually appears as a tall boy of perhaps ten, with dark hair and a quick and ready smile.
Under his cloak, flutter carries little or nothing that might incriminate him. He travels light, with no weapons.
Emilia is tall, with night-black hair and eyes of azure, wearing a long dress of midnight-blue. She looks constantly as if she's just come inside from a mighty storm, and is constantly soaked, but it suits her beautifully. She looks small and weak, but has the agility of a trapeze artist and beyond, a mixture of physical discipline and repurposed arcanics giving her tremendous athletic skill.
I suppose I should start the story now...
You are all in a forest... it is nighttime... there is a full moon... you can here the sound of wolves in the distance... 10 feet to the north of you is a vertical disc, swirling a luminous purple...
What would you like to do?
Columbus was watching the obviously magical disc. He examined as much as he could without getting closer. At the moment he took the form of a small wolf, friendly, yet on guard. He seemed harmless, but then again, most animals do. He sat next to a tree, watching the disc.
SpoilerSpellcraft to identify the disc if it is a spell: [roll0]
SpoilerAssuming we dont know of each other
In the trees above the small wolf, a small boy with shaggy black hair and a feral aspect crouches. A small jagged scar shows under his left eye, and a small gold earring is present in his right ear. His eyes are normal seeming at first, but gradually shift colors, going from a blood red, to a deep green, to a ocean blue, and to a deep gold before repeating. Of course, his appearance cannot actually be seen, due to the heavy robe covering his entire body. Unnoticed by anyone, he sits and watches the disk, wondering what its use might be.
Spoiler
I assume no one sees him due to high hide.
Picture below, if interested
Spoiler
You can tell that it is a Gate (as the spell) but, there is no way of knowing where it goes with out going through it.Quote:

The boy climbs down from the tree, seeing the tall woman looking at the Gate. After several hours of silence, he decides to make his presence known. He steps forward boldly, his earring glinting.
Greetings, high lady. I became lost in this forest. Could you tell me where we are?
His eyes seem suprisingly aware for one so young, a deep chestnut color. He stands cockily, watching the lady in blue.
The Portal begins to crackle... almost as if lightning were arcing across it... then the wind picks up a bit... there is now actual electricity arcing across the portal, the sky darkens as the portal slowly begins to open.
As the boy climbed down from the tree, the wolf growled as he slowly crept backward, a normal reaction that is expected in most cases.
Out of the portal steps a reptilian creature with 12 heads.
Okay, that's... strange... I probably should do something, Columbus thinks to itself. With a small flash of light the wolf shifts into the body of a younger man, war-torn and alert. He speaks out at the monster in the foulest language he knows, abyssal. "May I ask what your business here is?"
Emilia giggles in surprise.
"Hello?" she calls to it, walking closer slowly.
The creature looks at all of you... then opens one of its mouths and shoots a cone of fire in your direction... luckily for you the flames don't quite make it to you... although, the heat does.
The small boy's eyes widen at the wolf, then seeing the creature, even more. As it opens its mouth, he dives back from the flames, vanishing in the tall grass.
Spoiler
Using Hide in Plain Sight
Hide [roll0]
Initiative [roll1]
Emilia's response is obvious and quick-attack.
She spins on a dime to run, and vanishes in a blast of purple lightning, moving straight through the creature. She skids to a halt, reappearing on the other side and turning as her hands glow with a corona of magic and lightning-and she lashes out three times at the air, each strike echoing through space to jab, strike, and slash at the monster.
SpoilerIf I need initiative...
[rolll=Initiative]1d20+3[/roll]
Thunder steps! Move action takes me up to 80ft. Ideally I want to be 30ft on the other side.

Crit range is 19-20.
I guess diplomacy has failed. thought Columbus. It takes a moment and then tries to did deep into the creatures' brains, changing the thought process with in each to be hostile toward the other eleven.
SpoilerManifesting Death Urge:
1 round manifesting time. Augmenting it to a cost of 15 power points.
DC 25 Will

The beast is now on fire... although, it doesn't mind...
Any attacks made at close range will now cause 1d6 points of fire damage to the attacker.
For the second round in a row, the boy stays in the grass, watching, his bright eyes glittering as they flicker between the combatants.
