The Plains of Draconia

22-05-2004, 20:28
The sun begins to peer over the eastern horizon spraying the feild withits light. Shifting in his armor Dragjhk looks across the plain taking in the sunrise. Standing 6 feet tall and heavily muscled, he is the image of a typically average Reptilain of Armycrona. The rays of the sun catch on the dew on the grass giving it the appearance of water. Sounds of a camp of war are heard throughout the area as soldiers rise from their beds and prepare for the coming battle. Dragjhk picks up his short sword and straps it around his waist. Pulling it out of the sheeth, he examines it for sharpness. It is a short sword made of steel. Fluidly he begins the motions of sword play. Thirty minutes later the call to arms is heard. The Enemy as enterd the valley.
(Humans) He thinks with disdain as he joins his fellow company members in formation.
A slight breeze picks up blowing a foul stench accross his nose. His notrels squeeze shut to try and keep the smell out. It is the smell of their enemy.
"Company, Forrword Harch!" A Reptilain wearing the red sash of a captain cries. The begin to march to meet the human army. The wail of a Reptialian vlassler is heard cuasing the Reptilian army to pick up its step.
The Banners of the human army are seen coming over the rise of the enrance to the valley.
"Company, HALT!" orders the captain. The Reptilain army halts and stands firm awaiting the arrival of the Enemy army.
The Humans' frontline crests the rise and halt apon seing the Reptilians assembled. A bugel blares calling for the Halt of the Human Armies.
"Company, Draw Arms!" Bellows the Reptilian captain. The sounds of 1000 swords being pulled from their sheeths is heard across the Reptilian army.
"Company, Charge!" Cries the Reptilian captains. The Reptilians begin sweeping across the valley floor towards the Human army.
"Emrace DEATH!" The reptilians cries as their frontline collides with that of the Human army's.

<OOC:With this RP I would like to try something I have never seen before. There will be two opposing armies, as ussual in any battle. Anyone interested in participating jin this Rp may do so, but under certain restrictions. Participants are only able to use a soldier in one of the two armies. These are only normal people fighting. That means No MAGIC and/or Spirit energy. If you would like to be a participant just say so.>

Anak Muktar had expected the scalefaced abominations ot be an easy foe. Sure, they were for him: he got two in the charge and a third after his fellows to his right began to faulter. But he could tell they were better than the rumors said. Savages my sword arm, these troops had discipline! He could only grit his teeth and hold out as he flung another Reptilian behind him. "Bring your mightiest, scalefaces! I can take you all!"

Dragjhk blocked the townard slash of a human's weapon and slammed his scaled fist into the humans face effectively dropping the human to the ground. Swiveling his sword in his hand Dragjhk plunged it into the belly of another human. Swinging his tail like a club he killed another one. <I had heard these things were soft shelled,but this was pathetic>he thought to himself while slpitting another human across the belly. Belowing with Battle Rage he charged into another group of humans.
<OOC: Thanks Muktar.>

Anak slashed horizontally with a lunge forward, killing two scalefaces and wounding a third enough so that the soldier to his left could finish it off. Things were getting even worse to his right as the scaleface commander plowed through the conscripts like he did through the scalefaces. He decided to wheel around and fight his way toward the one who was apparently their commander.

The Reptilian Captain countinued to cut a swath through the pinkies. He parried an attack to his right and slid his blade along that of the human that just attacked him slicing the arm of his attacker off rendering him useless. Finishing the human off with a sharp kick to the sternum. He wheeled around to face another human attacker.

Battle From a Bird's eye view:
The Reptialian army continues to drive deep into the human army, causing
the humans to fall back. All combat ceases when the sun goes down effectively cuase such fighting to become almost impossible. The humans take this chance to retreat to their position inside the mouth of the valley.

(OOC: Its hard to do when you go ahead and say what happens to other side, i.e. humans retreat. Who are you to decide what happens to everyone else?)

OOC:
look im just trying to make this rp longer, and I would like it to be more than just combat. To make it more interesting shouldn't we show both sides of battle. Combat and the lives of the people who are fighting.
Cuatha if you character is human the reptilians will not use her. Plus it is my rp, but i will try to hold down on the god modding. Until someone takes control of the human general I have control of both armies. I also have something in mind for this conflict in the near future anyways. But if you would like I will give you complete control of the human host.

OOC: definately non-human. think a bipedal cat with a longer tail that has a 10" retractable 'blade' on the end.

Actually, since no-one is RP'ing the humans I'll put her on there, RP her part and the human army.


What a pathetic lot. That wasn't even a hard press and they folded. Tsorna thought that night after the battle. I suppose I'm lucky to be alive though, I stuck out like shaven tail out there. She lay back and looked at the stars, trying to find her own. The sounds of the badly beaten humans filled her ears as she tried to sleep. It was of no use.

I think I need to go talk to this general of theirs. She got up and looked at the camp, trying to locate what could be a command tent. She spotted one that she thought would be it. Sure enough when she approached the tent gaurds came to challenge her.

"Shove off," She used her limited vocabularly in human speech. It tickled her throat weird.

"We can't let you pass," the apparent captain pointed his spear at her.

"I need... talk with your leader."

"Not gonna happen unless he lets it happen."

"Will he let it happen?"

"What do you want to see him about?"

"The battle."

"You'll get your pay."

"I no care about pay. I want talk tactic," she was losing her patience and could feel her blade slipping into its exposed position.

"I doubt the general thinks he could learn anything about tactics from a cat."

"Ask him," her blade was fully out and she had raised her tail in irritation. The captain, having seen what the tail could do that day blanched.

"Jacen, tell the general that the cat lady wants to talk with him."

One of the younger looking gaurds went turned and entered the tent. A few minutes later Jacen came back out. "He'll see her," was all he said.

"Fine."

Tsorna lowered her tail and entered the tent.

OOC: more to come as I think up what should happen in there :)

Dragjhk reclines on his back starring up at the stars. Sitting up he watches the medics illuminated by their torches move about the valley floor search for survivers of the battle earlier. He averts his gaze briefly to retrieve his sword. Using a soft absorbant cloth he cleans the human blood off his blade. After wiping his blade clean Dragjhk pulls a well worn stone out of his pack. Sliding the blades edge through grove in the stone he ponders on the events that led him up to this dreadful day.
One Week Earlier:
The guard next to him shifted uncomfortably in his sleep. Dragjhk punches him in the shoulder, “Wake up you pinkie or I’ll report you the watch captain.”
“I’m up, no need to get so bent out of shape.” the guard grumbles while assuming the position of attention. “Was having the most wonderful dream. Wanna hear it?” he asks Dragjhk.
“Sure, got nothin’ better to do.” Dragjhk replies.
“Well, I’m riding atop a Ridgeon, it is the most beautiful one I have ever seen. Rippling muscles, scales like gems, and claws as deep as obsidian and as sharp as blades. I continue to ride for sometime, when out of no where a little house appears towards me. I spur my mount to go faster, and we reach the house in no time. I tie the beast to the tree in the front and proceed to the porch. It is beauty of a cottage. Well, I knock on the door, and wait a few moments, then I knock again. As soon as I lift my hand from the door it opens.” He pauses for effect.
“Go on.” Dragjhk prods.
<OOC: Srry but I have to leave it there for now, I'll try to get on ealy tomorrow after school and finish it. Oh, and Cauthu how did you get the italics to work?>
