Re: VIGIL I: We don't have a cool title yet...
As the corrupted woman is pinned down, a trickle of blood appears from her face. The trickle turns into a puddle and the puddle turns into a lake. More blood than a broken nose can account for. More blood than a single body can account for. The cracks in the walls expand in a fractal pattern and faint screaming can be heard through them. Agatha struggles against Carrie, fighting to keep her head above the rapidly spreading blood. Save me! SAVE US!
[Job 42]
Only one merman left; Kyne won't get a second shot at this. She drops her spear, letting it sink to the oceanfloor. Then she extends both hands to the rider, one empty and promising salvation while the other holds a naked blade and offers the opposite. He must choose which one to take. Souls must be freely offered to gods, they cannot be seized by force.
SWEAR FEALTY TO ME, YOUR QUEEN. SUBMIT, BODY AND SOUL, TO ME AND JOIN MY HUNT.
It should be noted that this Divine Revelation via telepathy can be heard by anyone in the oceanic base. The Huntress is focusing her Will on the poor merman, so the effect on everyone else is more of a polite invitation than a megaphone blasting in one's mind. But if there was anyone left unaware of the awkward assassin's evolution to terrifying dominatrix... well, they can consider themselves well and truly notified.
And the more informed among them will know exactly who to blame.“Me quoque per multos similis fortuna labores
iactatam hac demum voluit consistere terra.
Non ignara mali, miseris succurrere disco.”

Patty can deal with foxgirl assassins in black leather later; right now, she has a demon to slay.
"And what guarantee do we have that you'll hold up your bargain?" she asks, calling on her abilities to check for whether or not the demon is in its true form, or shapechanged...
...even as purple energies continue to snap, crackle, and pop around her hands, which she keeps in front of her, clearly in view...and clearly ready.

Re: VIGIL I: We don't have a cool title yet...

you're stalling The demon gurgles as it digs a claw into the woman's throat and makes a small slice. She thrashes and tries to scream, but all that comes out is a wet ragged wheeze as the air escapes from her cut wind-pipe rather than her covered mouth. The cut is very precise, just a couple millimeters from hitting the carotid or jugular on either side. There's still quite a bit of bright red blood, but KR's alive for now. get the man or she dies. it is simple
There is no magic on her, and when the psychic probing occurs, Patty will get fear, anger, pain, and hopelessness all begging to be to the foremost emotion. It is all very strong but incoherent, which is quite reasonable given the situation. As for the natural form, it is hard to tell with the demon as it seems to be all around and just concentrated in front of them, but the woman is very real.

Wenomir gets a quick look from Patty - one that clearly communicates that, as far as she can tell, the owls really are exactly as they seem.

Wenomir's hands clench, almost imperceptibly, on the hilt of his sword. Is that... but how could it... no. If there's a chance it really is her... he can't afford to lose her. Not like this. Not through his own choice.

"It changes. Often, it's all in perception. But little remains as little always." The wyrm cocks its head to one side, and turns that unblinking dark amber gaze back on Spako. It seems curious, as much as can be told behind that bony mask of a face and those strange eyes. "Why? You have skill at magic. You could know for yourself."Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

There's something quite funny about that, the little dragon seems to think. Sparks burst on its tongue as it caws, a strange little sound, not quite a laugh. "It's not so easy. But with the knowledge, anyone could try it, for a time."Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

Re: VIGIL I: We don't have a cool title yet...

Spako shrugs.
"Suppose it'll be an experiment then, if you can muster the patience to deal with me. But history is a touchy subject, since seemingly everything written down is true somewhere. Take this shelf, for example. It's all heroic tales, the kind that turn out all right in the end. Chances are at least half of these are accurate on some world somewhere."
Spako is very fond of that shelf. It has stories of nice people who had things turn all right without having to say goodbye to friends every four months...Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

then get him The Demon commands, running a claw gently down the woman's cheek, applying just enough pressure to leave a mark but not enough to break the skin. and no worries. i won't kill the man. i'll even tell you where you can find us so you can attempt to get him back.

The wyrm leaps from his shoulder to atop the shelves, and paces along the edge, craning its head down to see what Spako's picked. "Very observant of you. Most useful thingss are history, in their own ways. I find that very soothing, very interesting. Have you ever met anyone you've found in a book?" It looks back up at the kobold, curiosity in it's voice. "I've always wanted that to happen. Find some fairytale walked off the page."

"Shame." With a surprising grace, the wyrm coils its tail down around a book and pulls it from the shelf. "But there's always tomorrow's surprises. You can come back tomorrow, if you're still interested in learning then. But today, I have traveled a long ways, and I crave a quiet evening with a good book." Already, the little dragon is coiling up around its prize, flipping open the book with a claw. It yawns, a strange motion on such an alien face. "Oh, but your name is?

The wyrm isn't too hard to find. One of the tables has been buried in what seems like an avalanche of books, fairy tales and magician's tomes piled up in teetering stacks, and the little dragon is curled up beneath a heavy volume of the dictionary, carefully balanced into something of a tent. It yawns as Spako approaches, the little translucent lids of its eyes blinking away the sleep. "Oh, yes, breakfast. Very kind, very kind." The words trail off in another yawn, and the dragon stretches out from the claws on its wings to the tip of its tail, shaking itself awake.

The dragon turns an idle eye back over the monumental mess it's made, the towers and landslides of history. It shrugs its wings in the image of callousness, but can't quite suppress the little growling noise it calls a laugh, little puffs of smoke drifting from its nostrils.
"Oh, what stony, cold-hearted librarian hasn't shared the dream of living in a book palace? And how will these craven creatures dare try oust me once I give them my most fearsome growl, and threaten to send my dear friend the terrible Highclaws upon them?" Very pleased with itself indeed, the wyrm pulls the plate closer and splits open a sausage with the flick of a claw, pecking happily at the ground innards.Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

The armor tries to swing the attacking eel around to prevent it from biting, but his movement underwater is slowed down so the eel will succeed. The helm is one of the weakest parts, since it should allow the person inside to look outside. The eel will crush the helm, but instead of blood and bones he will just find air bubbles rising up from the armor filling with undersea water. Sadly the armor doesn't seem to loose grip on the eel. He will attemp to swing the eel around and prevent it from biting anything els, slowly sinking to the ground unless the eel prevents it in a way.
Mia takes note of the Revelation, but her belive in Deus Mechanicus is to strong to follow the call. She tries to remind it for later, but right now she got another problem. The other armor is still in the eels grab, I assume. So Mia press a buttonand an edge appears on the underarm of the armor. She then heads to the eel and tries to cut it to free the armor. If she won't succeed the armor in the eels grip will take to much damage to fight.

"What?" Mia says confused. She is aware that KR is an important person of Vigil so Wenomir can hear Mia call orders to prepare a transport. "Is this a trade or do you plan to save both."Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

Well the situation outside is just about to get a whole lot more hilarious, because Kr, who had been floating above the fog previously, now decides to land with the rest of the Vigil crew, facing the demon which is currently now holding her hostage.
"I beg to differ." She says, touching down lightly next to Wenomir.
"A lot of effort into your deception, though I'd like to imagine I'd hold up a little better under pressure." She says, not seeming to mind that she's basically staring at a mutilated, tortured version of herself, who may or may not be an actual living person there. "Do you perhaps have a backup plan?"Originally Posted by Lord Magtok
