Re: [Nexus] NO XIII: Do Clockwork Penguins Dream of Mechanical Fish?
Training Room - No longer so cold
Bianca looks a little surprised at the girl's anger. Are... are you challenging me? Then a determined look comes across her face. I don't play fair, little one. You may come to regret it. she says as she reaches into her pocket, withdrawing something small.
{Main Room}
Caroline goes to the door and opens it. Lead on, oh mighty main antagonist. she says, grinning.

Vincent gives Caroline a stare. "Now you're just being weird..."
He'll head through it and the two of them will head to... Inside? Riverside? Trog's? Or BDD?

Let's go to Trog's. You know, I tried to get hired there once. I think they're ghostist. They wouldn't hire me. Said I couldn't handle the drinks. Caroline walks with Vincent toward wherever he goes.

*cue battle music*
Training Room - A Little Hot
Shanaya's spell finishes, with her sword pointing straight in the air. Fire falls from the heavens, and hits Shanaya straight on herself.
The blue bar decreases another third and the red bar goes down, but the yellow bar goes up a little tiny bit. When the fire dies down, Shanaya looks a little burned, but not hurt a lot. "...you're right, that didn't hurt a lot."
However, Shanaya's sword caught fire! It now looks three times more deadly - I guess there was a reason to make fire rain from the heavens onto herself.
"Yes! I challenge you!" she replies, now pointing the flaming sword at Bianca. "I'm going to win!" The edge of annoyance in her voice remains, with the traces of anger.
The battle music starts! Whether that's from the Training Room stereo system, or what, but it sounds pretty cool.
To start off the battle, a ball of fire is launched from Shanaya's flaming sword at Bianca. It looks like it might hurt a little bit, but could be dodged by anyone who pays enough attention.

For anyone in plots run by me, know that I always tailor solutions to those in the plot. The answer may not be obvious, but it's there, and doable by the displayed abilities of the present characters. If you need help or hints, I'll try to be available to provide them.

Luckily enough, Dipsnig isn't as grossed out as others would perhaps be. Goblins are used to bugs.
"I'll leave you to your work, then."
With that, Dipsnig leaves.Last edited by Morty; 2012-09-13 at 09:04 AM.

"Mmm... maybe the owner has a secret grudge against ghosts cause of some sidequest business. Worth checking out." Vincent says as they go to Trog's.

Re: [Nexus] NO XIII: Do Clockwork Penguins Dream of Mechanical Fish?
[The door to NO]
Outside the door is an heavily clothed figure wearing a thick furry anorak along with two mittens and a fur hat. The drow can see two blue eyes looking out from somewhere between the hat and the muffler.
The figure is now leaning on a thick wooden staff, staring at Kirk. Not far from it the drow might be able to see a large gargoyle rummaging around on the ground, stretching it's arms and legs.
"I'm here on the behalf of... wait, you're Kirk right?" The figure asks in a defiantly feminine voice.

He doesn't recognize the voice but this woman apparently knows him, perhaps by reputation. "I'm Shalyn Eagelheart, beast master of Malechenar." She explains while offering her gloved hand to shake. "And the gal behind me is Scorn." The beast master explains with a nod in the direction of the gargoyle.

Shalyn chuckles as if Kirk had just told her a joke. "I'm not sure it would be appropriate for me to tell you just how I got to learn your name, but you certainly seem to be an funny guy." And even if her mouth is covered by a muffler, Kirk can tell she's grinning.
Then she gestures inside the building, "But you don't mind if I move inside do you? Scorn could use a place to stay as well, she deserves some warmth after braving that storm."

"Really now?" He smirks a little. Now this is interesting. "I hope it was good rumors at least. But please, come inside. And Scorn can stay in the beast pens out back. If you can tell her to, she can get in through a fenced off clearing."
Once she's done that Kirk steps aside to let her enter. When Shalyn's inside, he closes the door and looks at her curiously. "Now, just what can I help you with?"

Re: [Nexus] NO XIII: Do Clockwork Penguins Dream of Mechanical Fish?
[The door to NO]
The beast master steps inside once Scorn have flied off to the beast pens. Once Kirk closes the door behind her, she removes her muffler and hat revealing the face of an rough-looking middle aged woman. She have short blond hair hanging down over her forehead and an heart-shaped face with an straight nose and full lips. Perhaps her most prominent feature however is the three healed scar marks on the left part of her face which partly are covered up by her hair which gives her a rather rugged look.
"I'm here to hire NO for a job actually, so I'm supposed to talk to your boss. Dipsnig." Shalyn explains as she looks around curiously within the base.

Shalyn smiles back, such luck. "Ace, then you my friend is the new owner of this bag of money." The beast master says as she removes a small bag of gold from her belt. "This is half the payment, you get the rest once the job is done. What is the job you say and why am I offering this to you before I know you accept it? Well, let's just say I got a good feeling about you and it's a pretty standard job. My employer want you to find out as much as possible about the temple of Dalachrech in riverside and everyone who lives there. I'm guessing she's mostly interested about the dirt though which means you need to be pretty discreet about it." She explains while dangling the bag in front of him suggestively.

"Ah, you speak the language of my people." Despite Kirk's joke, he only spares only a glance for the money. "I think we can do that for you, though. Who should the info be given to?" The drow holds out his hand to take the payment.
Also, please fill out the contract form in the OP.

Shanaya suspects that Bianca used a secret Ninja move to disappear. She's guessing this, based on the smoke bomb, and everybody knows that only ninjas use smoke bombs.
Since she can't see Bianca yet, she prepares for the incoming Ninja Strike. She closes her eyes, and uses Psychic Powers (signaled by purple shards of light swirling around her) to sense any movements. Even if something comes up on her from behind, she won't be surprised.
(The purple bar is slowly decreasing.)
With her eyes closed, she holds the flaming sword upright in front of her, prepare to strike in any direction in which she senses movement.

After investigating the bag to make sure the money is there and real, Kirk sets it aside. "Around here? You like the cold, eh? I can't say I know of much in the immediate area. It's not exactly the most habitable place. You could look around, though. I can't say I've explored much."

"Not really the cold as much as the outdoors, gargoyles need large free spaces to move in, to hunt. A city just won't do in the long run." The beast master explains. "How about you? Do you like the cold? Doesn't really seem to fit into the rumors I heard." Shalyn asks with a smile.

Kirk shrugs. "A person can adapt to anything if they try." The drow looks Shalyn over, especially reading her face. "I have to say, I'm still rather curious what these rumors you've heard so much are." He takes a few casual steps forward, a smirk on his face. "Care to enlighten me?"

Shalyn regards him curiously, trying to read him as much as he's trying to read her. Kirk is perhaps a great deal easier to read though. "If you really like to know I heard you were fun to hang out with." She replies with a dismissive gesture. "The rest was not as flattering depending on who you ask though, you sure you want to know?" She asks, looking into Kirk eyes questioningly.

"Okay then, the word that were used to describe you were as I quote, 'loose man' since you were said to sleep around a lot. Sometimes with even more then one woman at once. Oh and 'complete scoundrel' and 'knave' were also words used several times, sounded like a couple of complicate yet simple relationships you've gathered over the years." Shalyn remarks with a smile.

"Really now?" The question is, who has she been talking to? He's fairly certani these rumors shouldn't be quite so wide spread as she makes them sound, so she probably knows someone that knows him better than most people. "And what do you think of these rumors?" He looks at Shalyn expectantly, though he looks mostly amused at all this.

"They made me curious actually." She admits, sizing Kirk up. "I heard you were tiny but I had imagined you a bit taller though." Considering the one she spoke to was pretty tall herself.
"But the important question is, are they true?" The beast master asks with an raised eyebrow.
