Re: Riverside 16: Turn and face the strain

Cessie looks skeptically at Jezebel. "You have to give me more details than that. A week is a long time, especially if you have a newborn child waiting for you at home. Especially in what sounds like a very dangerous place like your world." She very much doubted it was some kind of elaborate trap, but from what she knew, Jezebels homeworld was not a nice place.

"A name as good as any other," Dipsnig says, dismounting. "Now then, to business. As you might have heard, our corporation was given the contract to uphold law and order in Northside and Westside. We hired several companies for this purpose. However, our contract is only really enough to protect the general borders of our employers' territory. In order to provide... individual security, we're going to need incentives."My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

"It is a dangerous place, yes. But I know my way around it and I have people there we can rely on." Jezebel explains with a sigh as she leans across the back of a park bench, watching as people skate on a frozen lake that hadn't been there the last time Cessie had paid a visit. "We wouldn't be able to use our powers either. I'd effectively be human again while I'm there. Needless to say the thought doesn't appeal to me, but I need to go. As for the treatment, it requires you to be put in stasis for several days as drugs are put into your system. As a result, your aging would be effectively halted for a century and a half, given or take a couple decades. You'd look as you do now for the entire time. It isn't a perfect treatment as you'd still have to take care of yourself and stay healthy, but it buys you time to find another way to extend your life." She says, not really looking back at Cessie for the moment. "It'd require a lot of preparation and planning as we'd have to come up with a cover story for you and I'd have to teach you some things about my world. If people get the slightest hint of magic or sorcery from you, it could spell disaster. I have methods in mind for a quick return here once you get the treatment and we're ready to leave, but I can't just take us there right away. I'm not familiar enough with the place the treatment is at."

Re: Riverside 16: Turn and face the strain
[Leaving Southside - The Pack]
As the wolf sage leaps from behind to attack the back of Seyren's head he'll notice there's little to no reaction. Seyren's aura is withheld to contort around his body, making it impossible to sense the oncoming attack save for maybe sound alone. As Okami's limb connects, he ought to notice the extreme pain that comes from permeating the thin strip of the sith's aura, and might get a better understanding as to what exactly it is. Using the Force, the warrior was anchoring himself and causing whatever neared an inch of his body to be torn in every which direction, possible only because of how concentrated and dense it was. The Alpha might find his blow dampened, and whatever he used for the unarmed strike to blister and burn. If the appendage was clawed, then Seyren's head is indeed lacerated rather badly, but due to the anchoring he doesn't budge in the slightest where it ought to of knocked the boy prone.
Eyes still forward, he analyzes the trajectory of the phantom's blow well, though greatly underestimates the force behind it. Adjusting the hilt of his two-handed saber out just enough to where it would cause a lesser blow to glance off, brushing his outer thigh, ghostly metal sparks on lightsaber and is redirected straight into his thigh at the tip. The acolyte grimaces from the strange pain emanating from the ethereal wound. It wasn't like a normal stab wound; it felt like his quads began to decay in the area, and there was no blood.
A couple of new puncture wounds, a blow to the head, and it wasn't looking to good for the young sith if things kept going this way. He lashes out with a sudden flurry of saber strikes at the wraith with alarming speed. Each blow was only half-committed, expecting a form of counterattack, though even without much strength behind them it would be a severe wound to a normal man for a lightsaber to simply break contact. Seyren had to think. There must be some way around this, he knew. While fighting, the apprentice did his best to formulate a plan while buying time.FFRP Characters for Reference:

"That seems like a lot of effort from your side, Jezebel." Cessie replies with a raised eyebrow. "And a rather dangerous course too." Her first idea would be to discuss this over with Sakura, but on second thought she doubted that the dryad would really understand, and Sakura tended to prioritize children before everything else. Not that there was anything wrong with that but on this matter the two had very different opinions. "So is this merely repayment or am I expected to help you in turn?"

Jezebel is silent for a few long moments, almost several minutes before she closes her eyes and gives a small sigh. "I'm afraid to go by myself, Cessie. Terrified." She whispers as she holds her arms a little closer to her chest. "I never wanted to go back and the mere thought of it makes me tremble. Not the danger, but what if he's gone or dead or doesn't recognize me for who I am? I can deal with a trap if that's what this is, but not...that." She asks, staying quiet. "I need someone to go with me in case the worst happens, or I might not have the will to come back here. The treatment would be in payment for just coming with me and making sure I agree to come back."Last edited by UncleWolf; 2014-12-28 at 01:35 PM.

Re: Riverside 16: Turn and face the strain
The Pack - Leaving Southside
Okami howls in pain, his bare hand suddenly bloody and torn. Yes, it was clawed, but the claws are severely damaged now.
Flitter works quickly, removing the Alpha from danger...
The Sage gathers near Trace, and uses his Wand of Greater Healing )(he can only use it three times a day)( to fix his hand and Trace's throat.
Seyren likely won't notice, being distracted by Gaer, but the Pack's eyes' have all gained a red tint...
Trace, Flitter, and Okami all crouch, preparing to leap back into the fray.
The Kei-Jin shifts into a full wolf form, giving him a greater pounce, sharper claws, and more ferocity. He's also bigger than the three feywolves in his pack.#27Sigatars

Cessie looks at Jezebel in surprise. She hadn't expected quite that reaction from the former daemon. It made sense thought with what Jezebel had told her, there she would neither daemon nor 'god'. Just the person she so disdained, her original self. "So where are we supposed to go exactly? What does it involve?" Her words are soft and soothing, as if expressing sympathy for Jezebel's plight.

The power to tear down that shop with your bare hands, get your revenge...And restore your brother. If you free me from these shackles, I offer you power, freedom, and knowledge of the truth. And...For what it's worth, I apologize for forcing myself upon you. If my experience, people offered freedom tend to reject it, even if it's in their best interests."

"Funny, I can't ever remember being in SHEOL of all places." Dena muses with a smile on her lips, but does not pursue the subject further. "But yeah, it's basically a security upgrade for important merchants such as yourself who might be interested in having their stuff kept a closer watch on than the common rabble. Heck, I'll even watch over the store myself if you're really interested." The drow claims as she leans down a bit and meets Sticks gaze.

"Free my brother? How exactly? He already refuses the cure which I don't have." The night elf reply, her tone still filled with spite, staring at Certain coldly with her glowing eyes.

Certain smiles as she says, "The power available to you would be vast. You could make the cure yourself, or seize it from whoever has it, and do what is best for your brother, whether he agrees or not. And this is but the tip of the iceberg. Surely you've seen the powers Tarim and his kind can throw around. You could do all that and more."

"I knew it," Sticks says freely, not bothering to whisper, his breath quavering with excitement and terror. "I have seen this hospital's assailant before. I know what this is. I know what you are! Fetch! Lost one!" He spits at the dark loudly, casting power through his Molkav hand and curling it's bladed fingers into claws. The tall man scarcely realizes Tep won't know what he's talking about.
[The Pack - Fleeing Southside]
Gaerrfen grimaces as his blow is deflected, registering only briefly Okami's howl of pain before the sage is transported to safety. Still, he feels the weight of a hit, flesh giving way beneath his steel, and with a pair mad laughs he brings his blade back up to something resembling a martial stance. He's hardly prepared, however, for such a brisk counterassault.
It's all the wraith can do to jerk his blade in front of Seyren's, deflecting each deadly blow with a flash of blue light. The weight (or lack, that is) of a lightsaber makes it far faster than any true blade, as Gaerrfen quickly learns.
[The Toy Tinker - Merc]
Sticks looks down respectfully and carefully at the diminutive businessgoblin. "I believe there was some mention of it in the newspaper..." Sticks muses. He crosses his arms, furrowing his brow. "So in order to show this favoritism you'll require some... monetary presentation, I presume?" The tall man sounds interested.
"I, uh," Sticks glances back up, quite a long ways, at Dena. His smile is large and embarrassed, silver teeth gleaming. "Their party. I meant. Last Thanksmas. And as far as interest carries..." The tall man bites his lip and thinks. The store was costing him quite a bit to repair, but Jim's blessed contractor friends had minimized those costs. It was possible he could use some additional security... "I would count myself lucky to have you watch over my shop, young lady. Just how much does this cost?"My avatar was done by Gullara.

Re: Riverside 16: Turn and face the strain
"Oh, those are offers." His hand dips into the front pocket of his suit, although Sticks may gain the impression he's reaching far further. With a flourish, Hex produces a small crystal sphere enmeshed in a lattice of gold, tapering at each end to a thin spire ringed by flecks of ruby. "You pick up such interesting things, over the years. This - And he turns it in his fingers, the facets flashing dark and opaque as the light rolls over them. "This comes a very long way indeed. It can bring a sort of life to trinkets, closer than you've reached on your own. The only rule is, and you must remember, it's only an illusion. Tell anyone, and the magic is gone."
He steps forward, planting the bauble on the desk before the clock-lich. That the motion brings him to loom over Sticks, well, that's a happy accident. "That should be sufficient, then."
[The Dragon Inn]
"Oh." Sounds like she'd be stuck in the snake-form, and that's something the Burglar isn't eager to see. It freaks him out a little, to be honest. "Have you ever tried, I dunno, they make this stuff in Skyside, uhm, actually I don't know quite what it's called. But, like, a substitute? I mean, it's your choice and all. It'd just be kind of nice if we could, you know, go to a restaurant where we could both eat, and uh, the waiter isn't, uh, making jokes about eating me."
If Flo was joking.

"Well, um.." The Burglar pauses for a moment, and holds a hand up for silence, listening for the sound of sirens or wingbeats. "I guess, er, the police would be like you? Earth vampires?

Cybil stares at the Burglar and then looks down, making a fake-sounding cough sound with her hand covering her mouth. "Uh, yeah. We could try that, it would be nice." She replies while still holding her hand against her mouth. She then seems to clear her throat and looks over at the Burglar with a faint smile. "I mean, I'd like that. Not sure how'd it work though, it was explained to me that we need a certain part of the soul to consume."
[Museum Heist]
"Not in Westside, probably more mercenaries, or the police you have around here." Cybil replies. "So the underground route is probably still safe."

"Then if you're so powerful, how come Tarim managed to defeat you, dark one? Or needed to conceal yourself, hm? Why didn't you offer all this if you had such a good cause?" She asks, not sounding very impressed.

Certain nods and says, "A headbutt is a headbutt, and even as a human, I am not the most physically resilient being in the universe...And Tarim has a very hard head. As for my concealment, I could have razed this citadel to the ground and turned the survivors, but it was not worth the risk of the injury it posed. For all the power at my, at our, command, we are not invincible. And attacking a citadel like this would be foolish. And as for why I didn't offer, I think I explained that already. Usually the response to my offer is trying to murder me, good cause or no. I'm glad you're wise enough to see past that."

"Oh jeez. That was, uh, um -" Looking absolutely flustered, the thief looks away and buries his head in his hand, groaning inwardly. This is why he's better off keeping his darn mouth shut.
"Um.." If he could somehow borrow Cybil's trick and vanish into the ground, that would be nice right now. "That was totally the wrong thing to say. I meant, well, I'd thought about it, that's all.

"A great many talents I have, indeed. Centuries worth," Sticks assures quickly, keeping his arms crossed and peering between the two mercenaries. Such a strange way he has to look at them. Both species of a size he's unused to speaking with. It only makes him slightly more nervous in his mannerisms, but hecan maintain a conversation at any rate. "I can offer my considerable services, if that will suffice. If it won't, I have a number of valuable maps, tomes, artifacts... permanently disposable or merely borrowed, whatever be your will. I do believe I am in need of some guard, at any rate. I can't be present at all times, and I most assuredly am not invincible."
"I... I assumed it would be lying in wait to bring us our doom! Aren't you lying in wait, silly thing?" Sticks voice dies in a whine toward the end of his question. He grimaces. No action. No nothing. He doesn't want to look foolish, he can't have that. "I hate the chase." He grumbles, tightening his grip on his spear and moving forward into the hallway, lightkin rolling before him like the tide.
Sticks does not retreat from Hex's gaze this time, when he goes a'looming. His eyes narrow, his arms uncross. He stands. "I believe that it will." The tall man says, keeping his voice even. "Wait here, sir, I'll have what you need momentarily." Don't meet his eyes, don't talk any further, just treat him like a customer... that was a good call... keeps the old man from shaking.
There is, twice, a crank and creak of footsteps on ancient stairs once Sticks has disappeared into the back room. After the second, he returns, stepping out've the archway to Hex's right with a clear, seemingly empty jar in hand. Wizard's Glass. And inside, to a wizard's eyes, there is an easily discerned curse that most assuredly belongs to Sir Hex.
"There. I hope you discern whatever it is you're looking to," the toymaker says, holding his now-gloved hand outstretched with the jar in it's thin fingers. He wants to add some vague rendition of 'don't come back', but Sticks won't push his luck.My avatar was done by Gullara. Thanks again!

Oh thank the suns, another subject. "My master has retreated from the world. He only calls on me occasionally now." Cybil admits. "He's not hiding, he's simply not... interested anymore. He probably realizes his time in public is over. There isn't much more he can do."

The erath nods. "Let's go then. Hold on tight." And then she shifts into her vampire form and drags the burglar underneath the earth back to the museum to see if the mystery woman who attacked them is still there or not.
Eastside Hospital
As Sticks and the lightkin moves forward through the corridor there is suddenly a barrage of sharp thorns flying through the air out of the darkness, each one the length of an arrow. They will easily piece through clothing, flesh and bone and even light armor. In addition, these thorns are poisoned with a conceptual poison, capable of effecting beings that don't have a human-like body such as demons, angels and spirits. It won't effect beings that are outright immune to poison however.
If anyone is paying attention to anything else than the deadly projectiles flying through the ar they will see two gleaming eyes and outlines of a disturbingly human-like face staring at them from the darkness, grinning hideously at them.

"Hmph, you're an extremist. Not an liberator. Liberators do not force the freedom down the throats of their charges as you were doing." Azare insists.
But as they talk, her mind-pal suddenly speaks up. I've have new orders. If you promise to help our next endeavor, I can spend some of my energies to let you out of here. The demon says.

"That sounds excellent Sticks." Dena replies with a smile. "I can check them out while I'm guarding the place. I'm somewhat of an expert on magical items actually." You didn't buy and use as many as she did without learning something about them.

Hex watches the lich go with a cool indifference, and purses his lips to a low whistle once he's out of sight.
Down from the rafters his robin flutters, to alight upon the edge of the box from whence it came, and lifting another's wing over its own, the accursed bird nestles in to its rest. The glamour and the sharpness in its eyes seems to fade as it goes still, so that it could not be told from any other toy.
And then Hex waits, a smile ready on his face for Sticks' return.
He takes the glass as it's offered, and lifts it to the light with an appraising eye, clicking his tongue in satisfaction. "Yes, all in order. Now, that would be our business done." He extends his own hand, insistent on the proper manners. "Just do remember. You must never tell anyone."
[The Dragon Inn]
'Suns' sure is an odd thing for a vampire to pray to.
"I dunno, uh, you don't think Malec - uh, Northside, you don't think they're gonna get, well, shaken up?" The thief suggests, obviously more than happy to keep the conversation moving away from that, uh - that. "Er, they're kinda shady as anything and all? I mean, heck, if I said some of the things I know, y'know, uh, that would probably be enough. Vigil'd be on 'em in seconds." He shrugs, sinking back into his seat, disaster successfully averted.

I was going to go under the disguise of returning with new contacts, including you, but we'll have to work out a true cover for you." Jezebel explains as she takes a bit of snow in her hand and begins to sculpt it into a figurine with her fingers. "Do you know how to sing?" She asks. "If so, it will be easy for me to think of something. The problem will come when my father realizes what we're doing. He's not going to take kindly to either his treatment center being used, nor to me taking the only human heir to the family we have."
Quinn's Apartment
Quinn will eventually find the apartment that was given to her, though it is far from empty. Service staff await within, having apparently been notified through some means that she was coming. A large array of fine finger foods and drinks have been set out and she'll find that the room itself is nice and warm, likely from the fireplace that lays within. "How may we be of service?" The head maid asks, hands in front of herself. "And should we be expecting anyone else to prepare for?"
