He doesn't, but he'll quicky try to scoop the exhausted and injured girl up into his arms.
If successful, he'll rush her to the Infirmary, where a (six months pregnant) Quinn will look up in surprise!

"You're at the Good League of Good. You're safe now," he says, pausing, and reaching out to try and help Holly up, not wanting to frighten the poor girl further.
...a plotcloned Jamie, meanwhile, happens to be running in their general direction.

"Oh gods...Holly...I'm sorry. I should have been there..."
Jamie starts looking upset (more so), while Taurus says nothing, but merely plots the Death of an Elf.
And when they reach the Infirmary, Quinn hurries over. "What happened!"
Jamie will explain so that Holly doesn't have to.

Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
Down the road towards GLoG careens and stumbles a tall, ungainly fellow with mottled brown-grey skin, a pair of crudely built wings strapped to his back via a complex harness. The crude glider is made of canvas and plywood, the right wing snapped nearly in two and dragging by a thread behind the half-hob as he makes his way towards the campground.
The would-be aeronaut wears a finned helmet, eyes obscured by thick, dark lenses glasses, clad in thick hide clothing. He's quite scraped up, shallow cuts running across his face and arms, but despite having quite obviously crashed right into the ground recently, he wears the goofy grin of someone who's on top of the world. Sure, he crashed, but for about half a second there he was flying. And that was totally worth hitting the ground face-first.
Unless someone stops him, the aeronaut will stumble drunkenly up to the main cabin and rap on knock door. He has no freaking idea where he just landed, so this seems as nice a place as any to ask for directions.Last edited by ThirdEmperor; 2011-12-03 at 03:01 AM.

[infirmary]
When Holly arrives in the infirmary she will almost immediately pass out on one of the beds. When Quinn looks her over she should be able to tell that most of Holly's injuries are minor scrapes and bruises, likely due to carelessness while fleeing, but she is almost severely dehydrated, and her left arm is broken.

Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
Sophie appears much more calm than Shrike, trying to take this new development apart with logic.
Well, we don't know if you have anything to do it. Just that Exalted were involved, somehow. Which raises a lot of questions in itself, of course.
Brinika scowls. What's "claustrophobic"? She's never heard this word before. It's not like goblins would need it either.Last edited by Morty; 2011-12-03 at 08:28 AM.

Outside, Jamie still waits on Kevin.

In the Infirmary, plotcloned Jamie and Quinn set to work applying antiseptic to the scratches on Holly's arms, as Quinn splints the broken arm and then casts a healing spell to (duh) try and heal it.

In Cabin 8, Shrike decides not to protest that she knows her Essence when she sees it. And so simply nods, tossing back the rest of her drink.
"It does. When, why, and how...and where has all the rum gone..."

Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
[Main Cabin]
The door is opened by Reelshka, the goblin lady in a classy hat. Welcome to the Good League of Good, how may we help you?
[Cabin 8]
Let's try to analyze it logically. As logically as you can after downing as much alcohol as Shrike has. We need to compare... well, you and me and look for patterns. All I know about Hunters is: we come from a world where monsters hide in the shadows, with majority of the population unaware, and those few who do know about them either serving them or fighting them. We Imbued were chosen by mysterious beings called the Messengers to fight back as well. We had the truth revealed to us and we were given powers. Noone is sure what the criteria are, but it seems that the Messengers pick people of strong convictions and their beliefs carry over into the hunt.Last edited by Morty; 2011-12-03 at 02:38 PM.

Main Cabin
The half-hob stares at Reelshka's hat for a moment, totally spaced out, before finally realizing he was just asked a question. "I'm, uh, lost as hell. I sorta crashed a few miles down the road while testing out my new wings, an I can't find this place on any of my maps. On the plus side, I was flying for a whole two minutes! I actually achieved non-magical flight!" He says, breaking into a huge grin at this last bit. Sure he totally crashed and burned, destroying his flying machine in the process, but the minor concussion was totally worth being the first mortal to fly without the aid of magic!
...
He's gonna be really disappointed once he finds out.Last edited by ThirdEmperor; 2011-12-03 at 03:05 PM.

Shrike runs a hand through her white-tipped red hair, and sighs, shaking her head. "For Exalts, the monsters are out in the open - demons, raksha, Underworld denizens. Everyone knows of them and many traffic with them. The Exalted are empowered by the Incarnae - the Unconquered Sun, Luna, and the Five Maidens - to govern, to rule, and to defend those who cannot defend themselves against rogue supernatural beings, forces of nature, and et-cetera. Solars are chosen based on the potential for great heroism."

Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
Uh... well, you landed near the Good League of Good, the organization within the Nexus devoted to works of charity and rehabilitation. But I doubt this is where you indended to land.
Hm. Sophie is silent for a moment. There's disagreement among the Imbued as to whether we're supposed to lead humanity or not. Personally, I think we're supposed to elevate it rather than subjugate it. Still, the parallels are there. But we still don't know how it all ties together.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies.

"No...and I think I'd remember doing something like that. So it must be something that happens in my future but your past...or something like that." Shrike sighs. ""I hate temporal mechanics. There's a similar debate among Exalts - some believe we should rule as gods in our own right, while others believe in elevating the mortals quietly so that they no longer need us in the end."

"Er, well, I wasn't really planning on landing anywhere in particular, I didn't really plan that far ahead." The aeronaut mutters sheepishly, scratching his charcoal black hair. "But no, I don't even think I've heard of the Nexus... He pauses for a moment, considering the implications of being stranded in an unknown land, far away from his home and everyone he knows. "Which means I've discovered an entirely new country! I'm gonna be famous! Twice!"Last edited by ThirdEmperor; 2011-12-03 at 03:48 PM.

Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
Personally, I think helping normal people throw off monstrous opression only to rule them instead is hypocritical. And assuming we're better just because we have powers is simply arrogant. That said, most of our powers just don't work on normal people. Sophie shakes her head. But this isn't really the time for a philosophical debate. It does seem like my past is your future, as little sense as it makes. Sometime in your future, the Exalted will either make the Messengers, become the Messengers or maybe those gods you mentioned will become the Messengers and empower mortals again, on another world.
Yeees... Reelshka mutters, eyeing the newcomer. This... country has been around a while, though. So it's not a new discovery.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

"Well, obviously, but until an actual explorer finds someplace, it hasn't really been discovered." Obviously. If these people don't even understand how discovering new lands works, well, that doesn't exactly bode well for the general state of civilization here. "I mean, nearly every new country has people living there already, but they don't count. It's all a matter of who find who first, an who's more civilized." The aeronaut explains patiently. The poor fellow probably doesn't even realize that he's being patronizing.Last edited by ThirdEmperor; 2011-12-03 at 04:11 PM.

"Yup."
Oh hey, there's the rum!
And Shrike refills her shot glass before offering Sophie a refill.
"The gods? Most of them could care less as long as they get to enjoy the Games of Divinity. And that wasn't divine Essence I saw. That was Exalted Essence...my Essence. So here's to you kid." She raises her glass in a slightly mocking toast. "Your life is all screwed up, and it's my fault. Cheers."
Bottoms up!

Reelshka scowls. Are you aware you're being insulting?
It's wonderful to know just what turned my life upside down a couple of years back, I have to admit. But hey. I'm still alive after those years. Not all Hunters get this lucky. Sophie takes a shot of her rum. So it looks like either Exalted became... or will become... Messengers or make them somehow if you say the gods are unlikely to be involved.My FFRP characters.
