Victor nods

That kinda thing happen a lot here?

[horngeek]

"Not that much. Apparently, that incident was a full-scale army attacking.

An army of catpeople, actually. A lich named Calubufiok was mind-controlling them, from what I heard. Died before I came here, but he was an ommnicidal bastard from all accounts."

[Murkus]

The little girl dubbed Sarah is wandering around camp in a plain white dress, looking for someone or something interesting.

Nearby, any one of the cabins might suddenly note a stark thud, as though a heavy object suddenly landed on the roof. Anyone looking up will note a dark, hulking shape sitting up there, trying to stay behind the peak of the pointed rooftop to avoid being spotted. Of course, if noticed, it can also be more closely examined. It appears to be watching Sarah.

Main Gate

A tall dark haired man with an decent looking face strolls up and through the gate, looking for whoever seems to be in charge. He's humming to himself happily, and his clothes are obviously rather old, if well taken care of. He twirls a scalpel in his right hand, and wears a doctor's lab coat.

[Beans]

[Woods]
Carrie is still with Chris?

[Murkus]

Main Gate

Sarah spots the man, and momentarily assumes him to be her father. She grins and waves, but realizing he's not, this falters a bit.

All the same, she approaches. "Hi! D'you need something?"

[Neon Knight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

WONK!

A metallic echo sounds throughout the camp as a black armored figure stumbles back from the rake he just stepped on and whacked himself in the face in. "Son of a-!" The Neon Knight tries to regain his balance. "Can't see a thing..." Once more his fingers clawed at the release on the helmet seal keeping the brain bucket on his noggin. No good. Still jammed. And his visor had been damaged when the suit got overloaded with magic. It seems like he was stuck in this comic situation until he managed to find some help. With a heavy sigh and a creaking groan, the knight staggered about at random, trying to find help. "Hello!? Anybody got a can opener?"

[ApeofLight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

A sickly looking young woman sees the neon knight and his distress and can't help but giggle a little at the comic situation.

However Crissellea isn't that mean so she carefully walks over to the knight. " Um, I don't have a can opener but maybe I can help? " She offers.

[Neon Knight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

"Woah!" The Neon Knight jumped at the sudden voice, tripping up under the weight of the damaged armor and cartwheeling back to crash into the side of a cabin. "...shoot. Don't sneak up on me like that."

[InyutheBeatIs]

[Woods]
Carrie is still with Chris?

Yeah, she is.

Don't know exactly what they're doing, but yes they are.

[ApeofLight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

Crissellea gasps and covers her mouth with her hands before hurrying over to The Neon Knight. " Oh no, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to surprise you like that. " She apologizes. The young woman looks the knight over looking for something that might help get him out. " Please, is there something I can do to help? "

[Neon Knight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

"Well, first, I need to try and get this helmet off. Then, then I need to get out of this broken tin can. But first, being able to see something other than the word TILT! would be handy." The Knight reached a hand up to his covered neck. "Problem is that the seal is jammed and the joints seem to be stuck together somehow."

[Beans]

Yeah, she is.

Don't know exactly what they're doing, but yes they are.

Maybe he's showing her around or somethingses?

[ApeofLight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

Crissellea nods in understanding and then realizes he can't see her nod. " Oh, okay, umm... let me see then... I don't know if I can help though. " She places her delicate hands on him, one on his shoulder and the other on the back of his head so she can get a good view of the damage.

[InyutheBeatIs]

Maybe he's showing her around or somethingses?

Well, as best as he can. He was there for exactly less than half a day, so he doesn't exactly have intimate knowledge of the place.

[Beans]

[Anywhere Chris Is]
Doesn't really matter, as she's really excited about everything. NATURE! EPIC!

[Neon Knight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

She can see how part of the metal on the back has become bent and jammed up against the helmet seals, preventing them from opening. In fact, it looks like all that magic he got blasted with had something to do with it too, as there are patches of strange vibrant color across the armor. Oh, and a section near his shoulder appears to have turned into wood. You could probably fix this problem with sufficient brute strength, some tools, or a little bit of magic.

[ApeofLight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

Crissellea frowns, she definitely won't be able to do anything about this but maybe... " Um, hold on just a second. I'll be right back with somebody to help so don't move. " The young woman says and then gets up and hurries off.

...

Yep, The Neon Knight is left all alone for the moment. The woman talking to him won't be back till the next post with help.

[InyutheBeatIs]

[Anywhere Chris Is]

Chris smiles. "So, what do you think?"

[Neon Knight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

"Okay, then. I'll just hang out here till then." The Knight sits back. "...I hope she gets back soon. I haven't been out of this suit in nearly three days."

[Beans]

Chris smiles. "So, what do you think?"

It's like camping forever! She squees.


((By the way, I have a plot idea for him to get a more permanent power boost if you're interested.))

[ApeofLight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

... ... Hmm... Maybe Crissellea just left Neon there as a prank? I mean it's been a while since she left. Maybe the knight should just-" Hi, sorry, I brought somebody that might be able to help. You can help right Jeffery? " The woman asks someone else apparently there. " Of course ma'am. Let me see. "

Neon will feel a different pair of hands then the ones earlier against his suit as the old manservant looks at the damage. Jeffery pulls out a small knife and tries to start prying the broken piece of metal away from everything.

[InyutheBeatIs]

((By the way, I have a plot idea for him to get a more permanent power boost if you're interested.))

((...Well, I might be. What is it?))

Chris smiles. "Plus, from what I can tell, this will be a really nice place to raise Thyna. Although, I have to warn you, one of the children who's about her age is a Magical Princess. I'm worried she might convince her to go along with her saving the world and all that."

[Neon Knight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

The metal, stressed and warped by magical energies, can easily be moved by with some strength carefully applied through the tool. After just a bit of work, the helmet wobbles loose. "Alright, now, all it needs is a good, hard yank to get it off."

[Beans]

((...Well, I might be. What is it?))

Chris smiles. "Plus, from what I can tell, this will be a really nice place to raise Thyna. Although, I have to warn you, one of the children who's about her age is a Magical Princess. I'm worried she might convince her to go along with her saving the world and all that."

((She requests one for him from The Cycle [life/death deity union she belongs to] but they are basically told that it could take decades of red tape... but there could be a quicker process if they take out the rogue ex-subordinate of another death deity.))
Well, I'll remind Thyna that any world-saving missions require her to first ask Mommy.

[ApeofLight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

" Um, alright. Jeffery, if you would please. " The manservant nods. " Of course ma'am. On the count of three sir. " The older man stands and grabs a hold of the helmet. " One... Two... Three. " And yank. Hopefully that will get it off.

[InyutheBeatIs]

Chris nods his head. "Good. Then I think this might just be a good place to settle down." Chris sits down, patting the side of the ground next to him. "Now, the question is, do we take anyone else with us?"

[Beans]

Chris nods his head. "Good. Then I think this might just be a good place to settle down." Chris sits down, patting the side of the ground next to him. "Now, the question is, do we take anyone else with us?"

Um... like... who?

[Neon Knight]

[Amidst the Cabins]

There's a loud pop and hiss of a hydraulic seal being breached, and then the helmet is wrenched free, revealing the face of a young 20's something fellow, his neat close cut hair not matching with the scratchy patches of beard growing in form not shaving in a while. He takes a deep breath of clean air as his brown eyes light up. "Thnaks! Phew, I owe you two one. "

[InyutheBeatIs]

Um... like... who?

Chris shrugs. "Our kids. Aemi, Summer, Amanda...who do we take with us? Should I ask them if they want to move with us?"
