The medieval sky was blue and clear. High up there, 2 creatures, dragons, cleaved through the air, each of them carrying a human being.
It was the regular patrolroute Thane and Leji had been doing for years. They were on the lookout for criminals fleeing from the city. It had been a while since they've had some action...

Above them tiny clouds could be seen, underneath them the plains. To the untrained eye a boring collage of yellow and brownish green. Thane could see boyond that. Tracks in the sand or stepped-on grass could tell him the fox's story about the succesfull hunt or failed attempt.
Just then, a hare ran right under him. He could see the little muscles swell up with every move.
"I can't believe I get paid for this job!" he exclaimed to his partner Leji.
"I know! You told me yesterday, and the day before that, and..."
Thane laughed a charming smile.
The hare suddenly stopped to rest, but Leji hadn't noticed the animal. His eyes were always on the horizon like a skipper on a three-master. Not that he had ever seen the oceans. He could see the mountains and the forests and the city he grew up in, like he had seen a million times.

Suddenly he noticed a small dot in the middle of the plains. As they came closer and the dot got bigger, it looked like someone was heading for the hills.
"Thane! Look over there!"
Thane's eyes couldn't see it yet, but to Leji it was obviously someone on a horse, travelling on high speed. Leji made his dragon accelerate and as quick as he could, Thane did the same thing. The suspect dropped his loot as soon as he saw the law enforcers coming towards him. There were trees on the hills, he would be safe there. The race was on. The robber did not look behind him as he dashed towards the woods. He could now hear the two dragons breathing loudly. He spurred his horse even wilder as he realised his life could be over with a single bite. As he made his final yards into the forest the breathing quickly faded away. He lost them. But not quite... They were determined to catch the criminal.

Ofcourse, Thane and Leji could never have imagined who else would cross their paths, besides from this robber from the city.

In Ybronneb, Wraith Team Echilon (Ybronneb's Paranormal Team) prepared to explore the new-found crystal cave underneath the capital.

END OOC

Back IC: Quin looked over at his second in command, Sheila Dekers. She was briefing the rest of the group on what they were looking for.

"Two weeks ago scientists detected a magnetic anomaly beneath the capitol building. Two days after that, three strange persons were seen in the lower levels of the capitol building. These people have been taken into custody. They speak in a strange dialect...we have yet to figure what they are saying. All we know is that they are terrified of the basement of the capitol building. Whenever asked why they were there they begin shuddering and talking in their strange language.

We are to search the basement for whatever is causing the anomaly, and hopefully discover why the strangers were there. Questions?"

"Yes, maam...what did these people look like?" Asked Ben Geraph, the teams computer expert and scientist.

"They were....different. They have slightly pointed ears, and all three have long, blonde hair." Sheila replied. The rest of team laughed.

"You mean we're after Santa's elves?!" They continued to laugh until Quin's glare told them to be silent.

"No...I simply stated what they look like." Sheila said, annoyed. "Anything else?"

After a few more questions the team went to the weapons lockers. They each took silenced pistols. No grenades were taken. They each also took a small pen light. Quin, Sheila, and two others took Omega Tactical Rifles, with silencers, nightvision scopes, and flash suppressors attached. Ben took his PDA and assorted scientific tools.

***********************

Once in the basement, it became obvious that there was something wrong. Every member of Wraith Team Echilon had their instincts screaming at them. When the team turned around a corner and fell into a hole, the team discovered why.

The hole was several feet deep. To make matters worse, it was seeming deeper with every passing second. When the team hit the bottom, they each reflexively shut their eyes. When they opened them, a whole new world greeted them...

OOC: If there are any problems with this, just say so and they will be fixed. Sorry it was so long. I figure that they have gone to DraggonRyders...maybe your law enforcers find them? Just an idea. That or wherever the rp will actually end up taking place......

General Mcarthur oversaw the digging. Ground examinations showed that something was underneath the soil.

"SIR! Thers something over here!"

General Mcarthur ran over, "What is it."

"It's a door."

"Open it."

The soldiers broke the padlocks covering the door and opened it. All of the 30 men there descended the dark dank steps. Torches were on the wall and by some unexplainable process a torch lit ahead of the first person for every step he took. As they descended the torches flicked on revelaing some sort of circular staircase. At the bottom the procession went across as small one-person bridge over some bottomless chasm. At the end there was a large rotten oak doors. Mcarthur kicked them down and they were immediatly bathed in purple light. When the men advanced the bridge they had crossed fell apart. At the end of the room was a circular purple shape set against the wall. Inside black and purple swirled around as green came up here and there. One man stuck his head in and brought it out.

"Sir. I don't know what it is, but i stuck my head through and there was some forrest."

The path they had taken fell apart as the men began to back up towards the portal.

"Everyone in."

THe men went in and they saw the portal close behind them

"Report!" Commander Zeragh yelled.

"Sir! We seem to have gone through some sort of worm hole. I estimate that we went into the past, as the rocks over there look fairly smooth...the one's like them in the present are pockmarked. Other than that, I'm as lost as you, sir." Ben reported.

"What's the status on our equipment, Lt. Wringlan?" Quin asked of Diana, the team's munitions officer.

"Sir! Everything seems to be intact, Sir!" Diana answered crisply.

"Good...Everyone, I think we can drop the formal titles now, eh? Ben, I want soil samples taken and analyzed on your PDA. Diana, inspect the weapons more closely. Stephen, Jerry, Jane, and Fred...You four will set up a perimeter. I want the area cleared around this site for 50 meters. Also, Robert and Braed, I want you two to go do some preliminary scouting. Work together as a pair; no splitting up. Sheila, meet with me in ten minutes. Questions?"

The team was silent.

"Good. Move out."

Everyone went to perform their respective actions. Ben began scooping soil with a small spoon and dumping it in a recepticle in his PDA. The for perimeter guards loaded their weapons and went in opposite directions. Diana set up a weapons check station and began inspecting each weapon. Robert and Braed loaded their Omega rifles and moved into a nearby forest. Finally, ten minutes later, Sheila approached Quin.

"What is it, Quin?" she asked.
"What do you think of all this? I mean, this is what we've all trained for, the paranormal. Time travel. But we're not at all prepared. We don't have clothes to match the time or anything. No tents, no transportation, no communications, other than the headsets. We are nowhere near ready for this..." Quin replied, his eyes showing worry only to those who knew him well, as Sheila did.
"I think nothing of it, Quin. We have to do our duty, whether we are prepared or not. Who knows how many Ybronnebian people fell into the hole? We have to find any who did..." Sheila said, consoling him.
Quin nodded, and walked to Diana to pick up his rifle. Sheila, who already had her's back, walked into the woods to do some scouting of her own.

OOC: I can post the results of the scouting and stuff tomorrow. I don't have time today. Maybe one of you guys could post bumping into one of my scouts...the possibilities are endless.

"Whats that?"

"I dunno."

The man walked forward and found a door in the ground.

Kris was running, from a nameless fear that chased him, what it was he didn't know, who it was he didn't know, all he knew was that it was chasing, then he srumbled, fell and blackness engulthed him.

The Three Shivians walked slowly through the world. They found its air very bad, and the animals where dangorus. The sighed, then punched the Cordients into their warp generotators. JUst as they did, a large amount of gases hit them, damiing the curcitry of the warp. Withi seconds they found themselves on a strange world. THey stood up, looking around. It seemed strange, and their powerarmour was back to the shiny black intead of the muck covered ones they had had before. They looked around, and felt disconected with the Rest of the fleet. One tried to talk into its radio to find the thing burting with static.
"Whats going on sir?" One of them asked.
"I have no idea, lets look around," He replied in a calm voice.

The pursuit was still on. Thane and Leji had been in the sky for days without landing. The criminal was going very slowly and often stopped to get some nourishment for him or his horse. But they couldn't get him, the forest was too dense to land. Through the leaves Thane could follow his every move.
Some areas were less dense, but the robber avoided these carefully.

Leji still kept his eyes on the horizon, but he couldn't see anything recognisable. It was much greener here, and the variety of birds was amazing.
Three times he thought his eyes decieved him as parts of the forest seem to deform and vibrate in a strange unnatural way. It only lasted for a second, but every time it happened the air got cooler, the sky a nuance darker.

Kris awoke and rolled onto the back, the first thing that he noticed was that the air was warmer here, much warmer, he was lyin on grass not snow.

It was sunny, and the ground here seemed so much different to what he rembered the other ground looked like. Strange He thought. Shedding his snow clothes and remaining in just a T-Shirt and trouses he began to walk down the hill he was lying on. He could see black specks in the distace, what are they? He wondered, they kept flitting in and out of focus.

They got closer and he saw what they where following, a man riding a horse. Then he saw what they where, Dragons. He turned and ran.

Leji could see the end of the chase was near. Grassy hills lay ahead of them, good for landing.
He started scanning the possible landingspots for hostiles or dangerous animals who might be present.
Nothing...
Just as he thought it was all safe, something he identified as a treestump stood up and started moving down the hill. It was a human! That means they're either back to the homecountry or near another country!
He focused on the distance, looking for the nearest village to resupply and rest. Nothing to be seen. The civilian fled at the sight of the dragons.
That excluded the homecountry.
Meanwhile the robber was almost at the edge of the forest. His primary concern was to get out of the forest. At night he had witnessed the scariest nightanimals come out of their holes, he didn't want to risk another insecure night. He wouldn't live to see the stars anymore. He had been fleeing foor too long. On the hills he met his end as he felt the Leji's bone sword cut through his veins releasing the warm red fluids that have kept him alive.
Leji remounted the dragon and took off.

"You do know where we are right, Leji?" asked Thane.

"I'm sorry but this time, I don't have a clue... We must find the civilian, quickly!" Leji pointed out where he had last seen him. "You look for tracks, I'll get a clear overview."

Leji took position high above. Still no village, no houses and no signs of civilization...
Meanwhile Thane saw some warm looking cloth lying in the grass.
A patch of flattened grass told him the stranger had slept there for several hours before continuing his journey to nowhere...
"Why would someone make such an expedition? Would it be ilegal to dump your clothes where he comes from?"
A thin line of bent grass went over the hilltop...

Kris stopped running not far from where he had started, hiding in a corpse of wood he watched as the Dragons and there riders landed and looked at his clothes.

He was astounded that dragons even existed, in Aust as far as he knew Dragons didn't exist.

Things where starting to form in his mind. He couldn't be in Aust, it was to warm, Austs in the artic circle. Also Dragons didn't exist in Aust. He had to find out where he was, and the only people he could ask where the dragon riders. Besides he was hungry and he would prefer a quick death by a sword than a slow one from satrvation.

Taking a deep breath he stepped forward.

Braed and Robert crept through the forest, weapons at the ready. They had been in the forest for nearly 24 hours, and it had yet to give way to anything semi-navigable. They knew they were lost. Finally, Braed thought he saw hills through some brush up ahead. Suddenly an earsplitting scream cut through the air. Two huge shadows passed over the two scouts. Braed and Robert instinctively dove for cover.

Several minutes later, when they were sure it was safe, they got up.
"What in the name of Do'Calamar was that?!" Robert asked.
"I don't know...it can't be good. Nothing in this forest is good." Braed replied calmly.

They kept moving until they reached the hills. There was a mass of blood and the body of a man and a horse on one hilltop. The scouts moved toward it.

Once on the hilltop, they saw the neat slices which had killed the man. They were obviously sword wounds. Robert immediately searched the man, only finding a couple coins. Braed radioed Quin using his headset.

"Sir, we have two bodies: one horse, one human male. They were killed by an expert at swordplay. Neat slices to the throat." Braed reported.

"I see...This means we are most likely sometime when swords were the weapons of choice. Anything else?"

Braed looked into the distance...there were two dark shapes moving rapidly around.

"Sir, there are also two large unidentified flying shapes in the distance, to the north of you. Do you see them?"

"No, Braed. Not from here. But Stephen reported a similar sight not too long ago."

"Very well, sir. I'm going to try to zoom in on them with my rifle....here we go..."

Braed put his eye to the scope of the Omega Tactical Rifle. He then winked once....twice....three times. The image enlarged each time. Finally, he could make out the two riders and their mounts with great detail.

"Sir...I've got what can only be called...dragons. One rider on each....there's one human female, one human male. The female's blade, hanging from her hip, is wet with blood. The male's is not. They seem to be searching for something."

"Thank you Braed. We are going to move camp to a ravine about 3 miles to the east of here....do you copy?"

"Yes sir. Accnoledged." Braed ended the link.

"Lets move Robert...I wan't to get a closer look at the riders and their mounts."

They began jogging in the dragonriders direction. Once within a mile, they crept more stealthily.

Doom Desert, Doomingsland

The 3rd Hunter-Killer Team of the Doom Legion, AKA, the the Ghosts, was practicing their skills on a random convict in the desert...

"Gold sniper, target aquired..."

"Affirmative, do not engage, I want to have some fun." replied Lt. O'niel, commander of the elite twelve-man team.

They were stalking a convict through a valley, he was running as fast as he could, but there were men all around him...

"Target is approaching..." O'niel whispered into his radio as he drew his scimitar.

O'niel was in a small corner off to the side of the narrow canyon, and the man was now very close. He lept out from around the corner, and slashed at the air, with the criminal's head rolling on the ground a second later.

"That's a kill."

"Roger on that one."

"Hmmm, I've never been in this area, what do you say we do a little exploring?" said O'niel, as his team began to step out of the various dark corners they hid in.

"Sure, lets continue down."

The men continued through the valley, until they reached a small cave opening.

"Hmmm, don't remember seeing this on the GPS, lets check it out."

"Roger." replied the man next to him, switching on the flashlight of his XM8 rifle. They entered the cave, and moved through the narrow passage, the flashlights illuminating the walls. There were things written on the walls in Latin, so they knew the ansestors had been there. Finnaly, they came to a portal of some sort. There was a watery black substance somehow standing up in the entryway.

"What the hell-" suddenly, the black substance flew out, and consumed the team. They came too an hour later, and found themselves in another cave, and walked out, and found themselves in a lush countryside.

"Sir, I don't think we're in the desert..."

THe three Shivians walked out of the Forest, their black power armour shining in the light. They walked one hundred paces, then ran one hundred paces, a way that infanttry could cover as much ground as a horse in a day, and more in a week. They contiuned the strange walk as they ran over the soft hills. When they saw the dragons, they did not run, but instead walked over with their hands up.
Hail, who goes there? Could you tell us wher we are? THe Captin said to Thane, the other two watched, and like the wolves, they waited.

Karl held up his hands in surrender as the riders turned to look at him, he wondered what they would think about a 17 year oldman striding out towards them. From here he could see the people who rode the dragon, on was a man the other a woman. The woman had a blood covered sword. Thats not good He thought, but there was no time to run and so he had to keep walking foward.

The 2 patrols who who had not seen anybody but the criminal for days landed on top of another hill as they saw the civilian coming out of his cover on one side of the hill.
He looked strange. He had cold features and a different build.
Then, from the other side of the hill, 3 even stranger individuals came towards them. They had the hottest clothes imaginable. Leji instinctively observed the suits for possible weak spots.
All of them were waving at the Dragonriders, with very friendly faces. The riders decided to wave back at them in the same way.
The group of three started shouting words they could not completely understand, but there were simmilarities. In his own tongue Thane shouted to their side of the hill: "Where is your village?"
But then he could see something moving towards them. More villagers??
"We're safe, Leji. And lucky."
They moved away from their dragons, as it seemed to frighten the natives who were still approaching from 3 different sides of the hill.

Catpian Barca listened to the voice and smiled. He spoke into his head side computer.
Pack COmputer, translate that into Archic Tsurani, Yes, Tsurani. He said ina calm voice, the tranlation came through and Barca stood dumbfounded.
Tranlae the following for them. He said, thinking fast. He spoke slowly so the pack COmputer could translate for them.
"Hello, I am Captian Barca of Hannibals Pack. Our Warp packs malfunctioned, and we arrrived here by accident. We have tried to find the rest of our pack, but they are beyond our reach, we now have the problem of getting home. Do you understand?" He then waited, Shifting his back so his gun and powerblade was in position to be grabed in need be.

OOC In case you are wondering, YES, we are similar to wolves. We are humans with wolfish ptraits, such as highlighted sence of smell, better hearing ect. Also, I should have said this but they generaly stand about 7-8 feet tall, so they are quite impresive.

OOC:Should I introduce the orcs now? I think it'd be apropriate for my guy to do that, as they are part of Doomingslandian mythology.

OOC I think so.

When some people aproched from the other side of the hill Karl knew it was a trap, but he couldn't run now, if he did he'd been eaten by the beasts. He spoke sqiftly in Austian, asking them a simple questions. "Em Deedie? Qui Vie?"
Where is this? Who are you?

Lt. O'niel and his team had established a camp within the cave. Their GPS didn't work for some reason. O'niel decided to take three men, and figure out were they were. They crept through the outside woods, and in the distance, they could hear the clash of swords, and screams of pain.

"Alpha, lets check it out."

"Roger, on your six."

They moved to the edge of the woods, and found a village under attack. It was being attacked by large green humanoid creatures.

"Orcs..." O'niel muttered to himself. They looked just like an artist's impression of an orc he had seen as a child. It now made sence to him. Either they had been flund into an alternate reality, or back in time. From what he knew, orcs were fierce fighters, but were easily enslaved by a sorcerer. O'niel figured he could cook up some sorcery.

"Draw steel!" O'niel shouted over the com to his team. They stepped out of the woods, their faces covered by the visor on their ACS suit. The orcs had just finished off the last of the villagers.

"Kill the man-things!" yelled an orc.

"Kill that one." O'niel said to the man next to him.

Crack

The orc fell to the ground, his brain hanging out, and his black blood fertilizing the soil he fell upon. The orcs stood back, terrified.

"What devilry is this?" asked one of them.

"It is the devilry of your new master, worm. Bow before me!" commanded O'niel. The orcs obeyed, in the hopes of saving their lives. "You now serve me, little orcs. If you fail, you will all be killed. Understood

"Yes my lord." they all said in unison.

"Good, show me to your camp."


O'niel had quickly acomplished the goal of mustering an army. Now he would pillage and burn the countryside, and enslave all who opposed him...

It just wasn't right...
All this people were so different from eachother. They couln't be natives.
Instead of giving answers they asked more questions.
All the people on the hill were now able to see each other. Time to switch to sign language.

The LEader saw the men to his side and smiled, he then removed his helmate revealing his head of pure white hair. His men followed, and each one had a similar colour, one a more grey, while the last pure black. This was then made more disconcering by the colour of their eyes witch was a pale yellow. THe Captian looked at one of his men and actually barked an order. It was a pefecet imitaion of a dogs, as was the wine that the grey haired solider made. Barca then looked back at the dragon riders. He spoke with a serise of barks, growls and yelps to the dragon hoping they could cominicate with their riders.

OOC We do not understand sign languge, cause we are a race of humans evoloved from wolves, and we make other ways of our orders known to those who are deaf.

Karl realised these people wheren't Austian, and didn't speak Austian either, the ones on the other side of the hill where barking like dogs, mad. He tried Nuevro Kowloonian and then English.

Here and there the horizon started producing small but increasing plumes of smoke. Leji was ofcourse the first to notice.
Towns! Human war?
Vultures flew over their heads rushing to the distant fires. They had learned that these plumes ment roasted food.
Time for swift action now the armies were still around.
Thane, facing the smoking horizon, pointed to his sides a couple of times, then while mounting and spurring his dragon, he made a gesture with his right hand, like he was scooping up air behind him which he then throwed to the front: 'All spread out and follow.'

The Shivian Pack smelt the fire and imitiatly their eyes seemed to go brighter. They looked at the area and Barca spoke into his PCIP ((Pack Communication and Intelligence Program.))
"Get the coordinents for that area. Then rift us there. We have not eaten for a while, and a hunt might be just want we need." He smiled, then waited.

After three seconds, they appered at the camp. They pulled out their lasguns, and took aim. They sighted one of the orks. They sniffed the air. And made a face under their armour. Then they smelt the humans on the wind, and they all smiled with broad grins. They ran on soft padded feet, catching up to the party of orks and humans quickly. When they saw the humans, they howled, a sound that chilled the blood, before taking aim and firering at the humans.

Here and there the horizon started producing small but increasing plumes of smoke. Leji was ofcourse the first to notice.

Karl had no idea what was going on, then he turned and saw thwe smoke, he saw the man, making gesture for them to spread out and follow, the wolf/dog men had already vanished. Karl had no choice, he raced after the man on the dragon.

OOC: Where are Ybronneb and Borman?

OOC: Sorry...I was on vacation. I'm back now.

IC:
Braed and Robert had been watching the dragons and their riders. They also had seen the Austian and the Shivans. They could tell the Austian was Austian because they had had dealings with Aust before. The Shivans seemed familiar, but Braed and Robert could not tell what they were.
They saw the two dragons and their riders sweep up into the air. The wolfish creatures made to follow. The Austian seemed to hesitate, then followed as well. Braed called Quin again to report the new developements.

"Sir? Are you there?"
"I hear you, Braed. Where are you?"
"We are approximately 300 meters away from the dragons. They have now left, along with 3 wolflike creatures and a human male who is obviously Austian."
Quin interupted:"An Austian? Here?"
"It appears so, sir. He seems confused, but is following the dragons and wolfmen."
"I see. You need to approach him. Find out how he got here."
"Very well, sir. Also, there is smoke in the distance. To the....I believe south...my compass isn't working. Do you see it?"
"Yes...I see it now. We'll call it south. Change of plans. We are going to pack up camp and head in that direction, carefully. You need to approach the Austian, but do it quietly. Then rondevoux with us half a kilometer to the...east of the smoke. Acnoledge."
"Roger. We are moving now. We figure we can intercept the Austian as he tries to catch up."
"Good. Try not to get caught by anyone else. Base out."

Braed and Robert split up, in an attempt to pincer the Austian. The moved quickly now, trying to get ahead of him. They quickly overtook him and turned to face him, rifles pointed at his chest. Robert made the universal signal for quiet, and Braed gestured towards the woods, obviously in an order to go to the forest.
***********************
-At Base Camp-
Quin ordered Sheila to oversee the packing of the camp. The equipment brought by Ben, except for the PDA, was buried. A stick was stuck in the ground to mark the spot. Then ammunition was distributed. Headsets were tested, weapons readied, and packs secured. Then the team began marching in the direction of the smoke.
***********************
-At Ybronnebian Regal Palace, Home of Edwin Do'Calamar-
"Wraith Unit, Paranormal Division, Team Echilon has been gone for 24 hours. We have not heard from them since they entered the basement. Also, the GPS trackers placed on them are not transmitting. What do you want done, my lord." the chief of special operations, Zak Do'Faredz said, head bowed.
"Hm...if they do not report in 12 hours, send another team, this one of full fledged Wraiths, to find them. How are our...prisoners?" Do'Calamar answered.
"They....died. 2 hours ago. One second they were alive, the next covered in blood from burst arteries and veins. We are....loking into it, my lord."
"Hm...very well. Take care of it. Dismissed."
Zak bowed again and walked out of the room....

Karl spotted movement out of the corners of his eyes, looking truning his left he saw some men aproching, he turned again, and saw others from the others side. He was trapped!

The men walked in the dor and down another staircase. At the bottom was a garage. Several jeeps and two tanks were there. A door led to a full armory in the back. There was a massive garage door that opened up into a road leading back out and by that was some sort of sealed portal. On it a sign said "Out of order"

"well, at least we're supplied."

"Find out if we can lock this down, and get ready to go scout for friendly soldiers."

"Found it. Indoor keypad, directions to outdoor keypad which alos needs this key, and a journal. Apparently someone was here before us."

"Give it here. Ill read it. While i do i want a team of 10 to scout for friendly men."

--------------------------------------
THe men left and the area was locked down
OOC: Sorry, i got caught up in Fable.

OOC: Sorry, i got caught up in Fable.
OOC:How is that game? I was thinking about getting it, but I still need to save my money for Halo 2.

The Shivans seemed familiar, but Braed and Robert could not tell what they were.



OOC Ahem, it is Spelt ShivIAN, not Shivan, I know what nation you are getting me confused for, and that is NOT it.
And Doomingsland, why did you not post, my men have fired apon yours.

OOC:Sry, dude, didn't see that.

One of the soldiers sniffed the air.

"What do you smell?" asked O'niel.

"Hmmm, they smell something like wolves, multiple. Heading this way."

"Purge them. They should make some good eatin'."

The men immediatly aimed their rifles toward were the Shivians were coming from, and opened fire into the bushes.

"Minions, feast on their flesh!" shouted O'niel to the orcs.

They immediatly roared into the air, and charged at the Shivians, swinging their swords, and swarming the enemy. Many of them were blown away, however, but they reached the Shivians, and got among them with sheer numbers. All this while O'niel and his team fired at them. When the orcs were distracting them, O'niel drew his sword, and rushed them. The men were all genetically enhanced, and trained from birth. They were pretty much supperior to a normal human in every way, muscle mass, sight, smell, speed, ect.

EDIT-Losses-31 Orcs

OOC:How is that game? I was thinking about getting it, but I still need to save my money for Halo 2.
OOC: FANTASTIC! I have played Halo and Fable. I am sure Fable is better than Halo2. Halo 2 is awesome, but Fable is more awesome.

IC: THe sniper rifle shook asa bullet ripped through a shivan's head. Doomingsland and Borman were allied back home, and they would respect that here.

"Go tell that Doomingsland is here, with an orc army. See if we can get one, or something like it."

The man drove off as the rest stayed and shot at the Shivan's attacking Doomingsland men.

Private Jenkins was inside an orc encapment. He was on link to Mcarthur and his video had gone out.

"These orcs clearly arn't working alone. It seems they are moving to meet another orc army, not in combat, but in joining together. Wait....here's a map. Wow....it looks like 30 or so clans are coming together, adn something is circled. It says 'Targat'. That's too close to target to be a coincidence. ANd it looks like a human village."

"Who are you!?"

A shuffeling was heard as Jenkins clearly concealed the mic.

"Im the new guy. I was told to study the plans."

"By who?"

"The big green one, i don't remember his name."

"Your coming with me."

THe sound of feet was heard and Jenkins screamed no several times. Finally a man was heard saying 'Shut Up' and the com went to static.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

"We have to find a way to hijack on eof these armies."

"Like Doomingsland?"

"Yes, exactly."

The little group had no idea what they were up against.
From the skies it was very very clear they were outnumbered.
The wolves had disappeared for hours.
"Damn, we're doomed without a miracle." The smell of fire and ashes filled their lungs.

OOC: FANTASTIC! I have played Halo and Fable. I am sure Fable is better than Halo2. Halo 2 is awesome, but Fable is more awesome.

IC: THe sniper rifle shook asa bullet ripped through a shivan's head. Doomingsland and Borman were allied back home, and they would respect that here.

"Go tell that Doomingsland is here, with an orc army. See if we can get one, or something like it."

The man drove off as the rest stayed and shot at the Shivan's attacking Doomingsland men.
OOC: Damn... Well, I still want Halo 2, as its Live Enabled, and well, because its Halo 2, but I'll see qbout scrounging up some money. Can you really decapitate people? If so, how cool does it look? Post coming later.

The snow began to fall lightly as the men crept towards the main tent. They snuck to the back and clit open a section just large enough for them to crawl through. They came in and closed it up just as an orc guard walked by. With guns drawn they snuck up on the orcs. The leader found a gun at his temple while everyone else had them aimed at their heads.

"What is this!? Kill them!"

A bullet ripped through the orcs head and the orc generals fell. A molotov cocktail flew and burned some others.

"What is this devilry?"

"This is magic. And it is us you wil now be following. We know of your plans and understand your thirst for power, land, and loot. We can satisfy that lust."
-------------------------------------------------------------------
"How many?"

"Around 500,000"

"And there are 30 or so that strong if not stronger coming to hit a human city?"

"Yes sir."

"AS long as we aren't hit. What happened to Jenkins?"

"We found his body."

"Oh. Did we contact Doomingsland yet?"

"No sir."

"Alright."

OOC: Going to play Fable

OOC: Damn... Well, I still want Halo 2, as its Live Enabled, and well, because its Halo 2, but I'll see qbout scrounging up some money. Can you really decapitate people? If so, how cool does it look? Post coming later.

OOC: It's awesome, ive done it like 30 times. You can use lightning and there head might come off or shoot an arrow at their neck and it will come off. The head goes horizontal as it spins, staying there for several seconds. As this happens the body falls out from underneath while blood shoots out of the stump of a neck that remains.

Quin led the group around a large hill which obscured sight of the smoke. They reached the place where they were to meet Braed, and waited.

OOC: Where's Aust?

OOC *AHEM!* Borman Empire, you just godmodded. You posted the fact that one of my Shivians was down, and now, a little advantage of being evolved from wolves.

IC THe Shivian with the buttlet fought for a few seconds before falling, blood coming from his armour. Imidiatly the other two Shivians Set their Jetpacks up and lauched into the air, firering their lasguns as they went. In a few seconds they where out of their guns reach, and they watched the orks as they looked up with a expression of no understanding on their faces. With that, the Shivians howled in great excitment, and they where replied soon by more howling. This continued intil there was howling comeing from all directions. Then without warning, a number of wolves came out of the forest on all sides, jumping on the orks with three for each. The Shvians on the other hand flew in close and cut at the humans, and then howled again, and the Wolves ran, with numers of them down. The Shivians Flahsed their teeth, and flew towards the Dragon riders. THey made a few hand Gestures, showing them to fall back, and then activated their warp genotators.

Back on the World, a Pack of Shivians put the craft world coordinetnts in, and arrive on the other world. Immidiatly their PCIP came to lie shwoing them what wa shappening on the battle feild.

Bump for Aust to post

The orcs immediatly turned to attack the wolves, cutting the air with their blades, and throwing the animals through the air. Meanwhile, the soldiers watch the Shivians soar through the air, and wait for them to come down. When they started to decend, they lept ten feet in the air toward the Shivians, shlashing at them with their scimitars.

Losses-12 orcs, one man wounded.

OOC: Sorry, a little jumpy.

IC: The snipers ignored those in the air and fired at those putting Doomingsland life in danger.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
THe orcs were strengthening the barrier around their encampment. Under teh human's watchful eyes gates, towers, pikes, poles, aramparts, strong walls, and more were added to give the orcs defenses. Other humans went to find other encampments of orcs, they hadn't been heard from for a while.

Orcs patrolled the ramparts as the size of the encampment was tripled. A wall seperate the original army fromm the new orcs. A force just as large as the first had been brought and they took up residence in the new area. Orcs were usually ribes, and as so didn't get along with other tribes. So in addition to the wall already up men began to build another wall sot he three orc armies would be seperated. Humans would guard the only acces point to one another. A circular area with three gates, each leading to a different tribe.

Quin led the group around a large hill which obscured sight of the smoke. They reached the place where they were to meet Braed, and waited.

OOC: Where's Aust?
OOC: Sorry, GCSE coursework. I've been working like a machine all week to get it in for today.

Carls a long way behing the others.

IC: Karl decide he ought to speak, to this strangers, there was no way he was catching up with the dragon riders. "I am Karl Finleson, from Aust who are you?"

The defenses were done. One orc army was in a third of the walls, the second in another, and the third was as of now empty. In the facility the humans had discovered was amoong other recent discoveries a bed chamber. That was where the Humans not guarding the camp slept.

OOC: Im bored, im gonna RP the orc armies coming together.

IC: The snow began to crest the ridge as tents were reinforced with animal skin as well as human skin. So far the newly formed "Destruction" army consisted of 12 orc armies. They had over 5 million men, and were almost strong enough to seige the human city, but not yet. Orc guards walked back and forth along the perimeter as scouts awaited for the other armies. In a couple of hours visiblity would be brought down to 5 feet in front of you. The winters in this land were horrible, and they were just starting. A man of important stature, the 2nd most important man in the army, ran past the guards into the 'Leaders' tent. Inside were 12 orcs, these were the most important men, and they looked up at him.

"Sirs. Around seven of the other armies have already grouped together at another location. We dn't know why. There base seems to be constructed to last a while, no next day move thing. We think they may be planning to backstab us and absorb our power."

"We will not let that happen. Tell all men to be ready to slay their brothers."

"And send some men to ask them what they're doing."

"No, then they'll know that we know."

"I think it's a valid idea and should be carried out."

"NO, it's moronic."

A fierce argument broke out and in the end one set of terms was agreed upon. A small force would go make camp out of their lookout's sight and spies would infiltrate the camp and learn what was going on. At this camp orc would sharpen steel and prepare for combat.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

At the new camp there was one leader. There had been 7 who had united along the way, but one by one Korlack kiled them. Untill he fought the two left in hand to hand. Now he ruled the vast army alone and they swore personal oaths to him. Someone had suggested he destroy the other army, and take all the men they had. But of that he was not sure. He ordered the men to stay here while he made a decision, but he didn't tell them that, just to wait.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The 19 other armies were coming in form different locations to meet up with the first encampment. As of now their loyalty was untested.

Korlac sat in the throne that was splashed in the blood of the two orcs he slew just a couple days ago. As of yet his force was not enough to challenge the other orcs, or the humans. They would have to unite. THE orcs packed up camp and made way for the other encampment while the contigent of orcs that were there quickly made their way back to camp.
----------------------------------------------------------------

The moon began to climb its ladder in the sky as the orc army arrived. The Orc generals celebrated. There soldiers added to those that had arrived totaled 24 armies. They only needed 6 more, but 3 would never come.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The tank rolled out of the hill as its shell exploded upon impact with the orc generals enterage. The Orcs quickly looked around bewildered. Upon seeing the tank they began to charge. THe machine-guns adn shells blew the first ranks away and the orc army that had encircled hte rear forced them to surrender. Now each section of Borman's orc camp was full.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Mcarthur smiled as he dictated a message to send to Doomingsland men.

Communique
To: THe contigent of Doomingsland men
From: General Mcarthur of the Borman army

We have allied 3 orc armies to our cause. THey are safly houses and we have a bunker where the humans sleep. If you wish you may ally with us and use our bunker or Orcs houses. a large army of orcs comes to destroy the human land. Not many will survive, except for the many enslaved. Either way there is glory to be had. Either way there is treasures and slaves. If and When we unite, all there is to do, is pick a side.

End transmission

THe man quickly brought it to Doomingsland soldiers as he gave a sharp salute alerting them to the presence of Borman soldiers in this era.

Braed looked at the man. "I am Braed. Wraith Unit, Paranormal Division, Team Echilon. We are to take you to a predetermined point to meet up with the rest of the team. But first, some questions. How'd you get here?"

The dragonriders had to wait. Out of sight, not to alert the orcs. But as they waited winter began.

"We can't just sit here and wait for the orcs to attack all that is human on this side of the planet?"

"What are you suggesting?"

"My grandfather told me about a ritual that can take away our mortal restrictions. We can travel faster, look further and even fly!"

"So you're saying we can slay the whole orc-army?"

"No, it will cost us our physical form."

"I don't understand?"

"We'll sacrifice our bodies, so our souls can warn the rest of Dragonryders."

"I'm not sure"

"Me neither, but it's either that or death by the sword or the cold. At least we'll make a chance."

They went off to find a large flat-topped stone to serve as an altar. Thane said a prayer to his dragon before ritually slaughtering it. The stone was red and warm. Leji whispered something near her dragons head and thrusted her sword into her heart. Thane put the corps on the altar and, out of necessity and grieve, plunged into his own sword.

The remaining dragon produced a teardrop, and flew straight to where Karl was.

Leji woke up from her dying spot and abandoned the cold flesh.
Though it was misty, a clear view of the whole landscape could be seen by these unliving eyes to minute detail. Finally she could see the beauty of the nature, the insects between the grass beneath her. She could see what Thane always saw, only clearer. Then she saw Thane also waking up from his dead body. There was a brief moment of joy, which ended as soon as they flew through eachother instead of in eachother's arms.
They tried to speak. It sounded like leaves in the wind but they could understand that language. The leaves and the grass would pass it on to the reciever, no matter what distance. Leji experimented with flying, Thane with moving around. Slowly they discovered the possibilities.
It's what spirits do when they first wake up, I guess.

Jimmy walked along his farm and began to plant his crops. In the summer they would do good. He quickly pulled his jacket around him as the snow came thicker. Then a blade cut him in half.

"RAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

Flaming arrows slammed into the walls and began to light them aflame. Before the gates could be sealed orcs poured in and slaughtered all in sight. Hundreds were spared for slaves, but those who weren't were enslaved were slewn. THe same occured at another city.

OOC: Sorry its not too good, im kinda busy. BE free in a couple minutes

The New Shivian Pack arrived at the place where the Other two had fled. They made a number of communications, and then one stood up. He spoke to the commander of the other pack. "We are aware we are in our own time, for our PCIP's still work, the problem is we could be a million galaxies away, and I found a faint feed that Shivia has found a new home world." He looked at his weapon, then thought. "We need to find those Dragon men." Then, without warning he laughed. "I just remembered, look." He pressed a button on his arm, and a canister that looked like a can of coke came out. "We might be able to help, now, lets work." Barca looked at the twenty, then barked an order. "We now are the last pack of this world, and we must work towards our own glory. Lets go." And with that, the 22 all warped to random locations, looking for the dragon men. Strangly enough, on their their last try, they found them.

Jimmy walked along his farm and began to plant his crops. In the summer they would do good.
He lived quite far from N'Vava, the capitol of the dragonryder's regions. about three days from its gates. He couldn't afford a closer farm.
Without any warning Wolvepeople appeared from out of nowhere. Jimmy fainted.

WHAT!? Waqs that meant to be a quote or just using my line? I'm confused. THe jimmy at the human city is dead.

The orc army had come to full strength 27 armies, it was all they would get but they expected more. They wondered what had befallen the other three armies but did not quite care, more for them.

21 Orc generals led the army, but after night, only 7 would.

"I say we just protect these cities and take 19 others. We can each have a city and we can divide up the armies."

"What about the rest of the Human cities?"

"Surely they will want vengance."

"They have yet to summon their defenses, after we hit the other 19 we must continue and destroy them all."

"Wait. I used to rule my army with 6 other orcs. I killed them and their men sword oaths to me. WHen i get my city every last one of them will be with me, i shall not give them up, they are mine."

"Very well. Your orcs shall fight on the front."

"What!!! Who do you think you are?"

Korlac drew his blade and slew the man immediatly claiming his men and land. Within seconds all had drawn weapons and several small battles raged.

THe orc Korlac slew had a secret alliance with two other generals. THey didn;t like to see him dead, so they both fought him. Korlac took the dead orc's blade and fought them both off. When his back was to the end of the tent he ducked and rolled underneath them. HIs blades shot up and were pulled forward. The blood and organs of his foes splattered on him as their lifless carcasses hit the ground.

Orz-Atang was a big orc, one who sought power. His mighty axe swept away 5 generals in the beginning minute of the tumult. He then went to seek out Korlac and slew 2 more on teh way there.

In the end Korlac and 8 other generals fought to take down Orz-Atang. He was a mad beast and slew 2 with his bare hands. Then Korlac took a swipe and gave him a deep wound. Orz-Atang Grabbed the orc next to Korlac and snapped him in half.

"Your next!"

Outside 21 guards fought to hold back the orc forces. They had orders not to let anyone in, even if they heard battle inside. ANd they didn't, they died. THey foguht valiantly to hold bakc hte onslaught but they were too mucha nd they broke through. Each remaining general was surrounded by a group of his men to stop the conflict.

Korlac sheathed his blade and stood atop a pile of corpses.

"I propse we rule togehter. No Orc can handle this army alone, but Surely 7 can. You get the army, land, and belongings of the generals you slew. Then your whole army swears loyalty to you. We are then 7 armies that work together. We each get a major human city as our capitals and then our armies conquer the rest. How does that sound."

Orz-Atang pushed his men aside, "I say YAY!"

THe others quickly agreed and celebrated, but inside his head Korlac was celebrating something else. His plot to take the whole army under his wing.

Braed looked at the man. "I am Braed. Wraith Unit, Paranormal Division, Team Echilon. We are to take you to a predetermined point to meet up with the rest of the team. But first, some questions. How'd you get here?"
OOC: I presume this is to me

IC: "I don't know how I got here, one moment I was running, then the next, everything went black and I ended up here. But how did you get here?"

"Fell down a hole. Now come with us." Braed led, and Robert took the rear, with the Austian between them. They led him to the new Wraith camp, now labeled "Phantom Base 1". There they handed Karl over to Quin to deal with. Quin asked him many questions about where he thought we were and why. Braed, Sheila, Robert, Stephen, and Diana broke off from the group and headed towrad the smoke.

Karl found the questions hard to answer, so many in such a short space of time, and he had only been in this world for around a hour.

After hearing Karl's story, Quin decides that the team will follow the dragons and find the source of the smoke. He offers Karl a weapon, a silenced pistol.

Karl, lifted up the silanced pistol examend it to make sure he knew the modal and then slipped it into his pocket. He knew how to use it of course, all Austians between 14-21 go through conscription, and he was no exception.

He followed Quin towards the smoke.

bump

OOC: Yeah, it's another Jimmy, and I used your lines.
IC: When Jimmy came back from his sudden sleep, the wolves were still there. He was alive!

----------------------------------

Leji's spirit ascended upwards, until he could see one of Dragonryder's huge cities on the other side of the vast forests. It was the city of N'Vava, the capitol. Now he could direct Thane, who was still on the earth's surface, straight to there. This would take him less than a day.

OOC I would like to point out now that Shivians look likehumans, besides the fact they are about 8 feet and were power armour. Besides the tatoos they have, you would not even be able to tell they where not human.

IC The Shivians looked at Jimmy and stoped. "Who are you?" They asked, their PCIPs translating it to Jimmys languge. "And where are the Dragon people? Our pack wishes to help them, and we need to talk to them to do so." Barca then realised he was holding his power axe out in front of him. He Put it over his back, then motioned for Ellerabe to do the same.

"I'm just a poor farmer, do me no harm! I beg you!
The army of the dragonpeople are in the capitol. There's a parade going on in honour of the Titan, our leader.
From here you can see the city on the horizon, but I can assure you, you can't get in. The gates are closed and heavily guarded and the skies are full of guards."

Jimmy could see they doubted his words.

"I'm telling you the thruth! I swear!"

The farmer turned and ran into his farm and to the safety of his basement.

Karloc snuck into Orz-Atang's tent as he slept. He snuck over to the table and released his poison into hsi drink. Karloc snuck out and the next morning the camp was spreading the news of Orz-Atang's death like wildfire.

OOC:Wow, I missed alot...

The Doom Legionares had each taken command of a legion of 10,000 orcs, and began to train them even harder. These would be the men to swarm over the walls of the human cities. They also managed to concoct a large amount of black powder. These were loaded into canisters, and were to be fired from catapults. One orc remarked,

"Blaaaaaaahhh, whaggg pooooooh!"

No one, not even his comrades, were sure what this meant, but they assumed it was something along the lines of 'humanity will fall'.

The Shivians looked at the human and laughed. THen they looked at the city. "It is 30 miles to the east." One of them said. "Very well, set the warp genorators to the coordinets, we shall warp to them." With that the 22 activated their warp genorators, arriveing, by accident, in the crowd near the titan. "Well, our luck is good, lets se if it holds." And with that, he and his men steped out in front of where the Titan walked down the street, blocking him from going any farther. While their black Power armour shined, Barca removed his helmate, and his pack tatoo, a complex design by human standereds, went from the side of one eye down the neck line. He yelled in a clear voice, so all could here him.
"I speak for me and my bretheran, we come in peace, we come to ask help for something, nothing more, touch us and we shall open fire." And with that, his men all shot into the air, to prove their point.

To: Doomingsland soldiers
From: General Mcarthur

Would you like to use our base? We are allies in hte other reality, why not this one?

End trnanmission

OOC: Just to make it clear. I'm not in charge of the orcs attacking the humands. I stole three of the armies. But the other armies are all Orc led. Or are they? Who called them together? (Foreshadowing?)

OOC Ok, I am ggoing to use a few fun things. I am going to use a Elven army. It is NOT using my real nation, but I am going to use them anyway.

IC The Elven mage Elthrian felt the nature of the world balance shirft. He immidiatly looked, and found the ork armies posed so near to his kingdom. He sighed, so he would have to fight. He moved up and went to the room of council, where the other Elven mages sat. They sat in a circel, none being more powerful then the other. They all looked at the Mage, and he sighed. "The balance has been disturbed, and now a ork army gathers near the human kindom, soon they will be near our own kingdom, and they will be able to kill at will. I suggest we find help, the Mages of sight may help the humans, as will our armies. Our Skill in magic and archery shall be a great help, as will our cavalry regiments." He sighed. "There will be much death, and the outcome is yet to be found."

Karloc assumed control of Orz-Atang;s armies making him the most powerful man. They all swore oaths to him. THen the armies marched.

4 more cities fell to the orc's power. Now they controlled 6 and each general assumed control of one.

Bump

OOC: I'm gonna have to quit this rp....Im too busy in too many others. I'll try to get back in maybe later. Anyway:

IC: Suddenly, a mist surrounded the Wraiths. It closed in, until soon it was covering them. When the mist moved away, they were gone, leaving Karl with only the pistol.....

OOC:That sucks.

IC:
"What's that?"

"Looks like a person."

"Go."

The jeep drove to Karl with the mounted gun trained on his body so as to persuade against fleeing.

"who are you, what are you doing, and how did you get here?"

Thane's ghost had finally arrived in the city of N'Vava.
The streets were empty. It seemed as if the ceremony in honour of the Titan had been interupted and the population had fled in a rush. The ceremonial sacrificing had not been completed: the 25 dragons (old ones or handicapped and useless dragons.) had been slain but their carcasses were still on the large altar.
Thane had no time to search for an explanation. He needed to find the Titan, quick. After a couple of hours, he found him in the palace conference room. The room was filled with a large table and very big people. He recognised their build.
"Sire! These people chicken out on the battlefield! We were in an attack, and they just disappeared!"
The Titan didn't react.
"Great Titan, our lands are under attack. You must listen to me! We need to send......" The Titan, nor any of his guests seemed to notice Thane. After more attempts, he finally gave up.

The Council looked at the army they had assembled, it was not much, but it might help. There where almost 50 thousand of them, witch, if lost, would wipe out a large percentage of the population, but these men had all accepted this, and now they where heading towards certine death. The Mages looked sad, but all knew it was death one way or another, so they may as well do it this way instead.

In an galaxy over ten billion years away, a group of Tsurani Lead guarded by 50 ALethrians stood looking at the new tomb they had found. These always made the Tsurani more powerful, and there where secrets about them that most knew. They studies the text, and after saying the words, were sent away, for the guard had found a feast. When they landed, they where right near the Ork camp. The Alethrians immidiatly ran towards them, their swords flashing, and it took the combined might of the Tsurani's minds to hold them back. 10 Escaped their control, and ran into the compound, cutting with there powerblades. They swiped left and right, their blows intended to kill. The Tsurani paniced, and 5 more Alethrians got loose, heading towards the orks that would harm their masters. The Tsurani then made an order, using the Tsurani overmind instead of the normal way, and the Remaing Althrians picked the Tsurani up and ran away from the camp, the Tsurani carried like badies. They where well beyond The Orks by the time the 15 Tsurani had been killed.

OOC Ok, now cosidering the power of the Orks vs the Power of the Alethrians during battle, the casualties would be bad, I am talking in the hundreds. So no Only 5 dead, for Alethrians are nasty. Ten feet of Power armour, swords and such, and Info, I am not copyng TSI, As Power armor is from warhammer.

The Shivins removed their helmates when they entered the room, but kept their PCIP voice pick up and ear pieces on. The different faces where strange, and all had a slight wolfis apperence to them. One had a mechanical eye, witch moved around in its soket, the red pupil opeing ad closing. THey all had the same tatoo as barca, witch was a vine that started at the right sty, and continued down through te neck armour. THey all had yellow eyes, and seemed to notice every movement in the oof with supicion. The pupil of the red eye focused on Thane, but the Shivian said nothing. Barca on the other hand looked at the titan in front of him, He looked him in the eye, looking Up/down ((Witch, since Shivans are 8 feet tall, and barca is a all one at 9 feet.)) at him. He smiled, showing longer canines then usual. "Now, the reason I came. My pack has Arrrr" He put his hand to his PCIP ear piece, as did the rest of his men. "What the hell is........" He paused, and then muttered a few things in Shivian. There was a small sound response, and he looked in the general irection of THanes spirit. "OOKK, THere is something there, It is disrupting our PCIP connection, or impsoing itself on them." He stoo there helplessly.

rl looked around hurriedly for the wraiths, they had vanished. He dived to his left, behing the cover of a tree and drew out the pistol. The machine gun fired but the bullets whistled beside him.

He slid down the side of a steeper hill, to steep for a jetep to go down and ducked behind the cover of a large boulder. He trained his pistol on the skyline.

Aust. I didn't fire yet. The gun is to make sure you don't run. They're asking you a question. If you still want to run be my guest.

OOC: I was presuming they'd fire when he dived behind a tree.

OOC: I was presuming they'd fire when he dived behind a tree.

OOC: I mean they pulled up with the gun ready in case he ran. They asked a question. I expected you to answer and hop on. But yeah if he dove they fired, becuase it looks like he has something to be afraid of from "Who are you, how'd you get here, and the otehr one."

Sooo..THey would be like, maybe he knows why we're here. Let's kil him.

Apparently he couldn't talk to humans in his ghostly form. He tried focussing on the devices the Shivians use for talking. There was a reaction this time, but still he couldn't talk to them. The Shivians would only hear something resembling the song of leaves: The Spirit's voice.
Thane ceased his attempts, and went outside. He felt like being watched as he slid through a door. He could leave the room anywhere, but he preferred the doors.

Outside, it was still quiet. The city is so pretty, when the masses walk the streets, and the sellers try to sell their products. Now, it was empty...

Leji aproached from the sky. She has been descending for hours and hours.
"Did we sacrifice ourselves for nothing? You should have known spirits aren't able to talk to humans!"
"What? It wasn't MY idea?!"
The argument continued for a long time, but immortals have a lot of it.

When they both calmed down a bit, two things happened almost simultaniously. 25 Dragonspirits came to where Thane and Leji stood, and a door opened. The blind General came out of his home. He looked them both in the eyes, and spoke to them.

After greeting the General, he said:
"These dragons have been slain for the celebration. The ritual wasn't completed, so their spirits are free. We must train them, and you, so you'll be able to pick up things and use objects."
He ordered the dragons to follow and went back in the door. Thane and Leji followed too. In the large long abandonned basement, the dragons and soldiers got their first spiritual training.

Aust: I think BE means, that it's quite an odd reaction, since you cannot know these jeep-people have anything to do with the orcs. (Right?)

OOC Witch ever is bigger.

Barca looked at the titan once more, and once more spoke in a leval tone. "Somewhere on the other side of the planet a large army of some foul smelling, black blooded and greenskined creatures are massin. We had a skermish, and until we have a few liberties we can not hope to help you in any way. We MUST have assece to as many dimonds as needed, as well we need to havr large amounts of lead, sulfur, charcoal, and sulfrium. With these our men might be able to help you, but not until we have this. We also need a large amount of iron, for we intead to build a great weapon that should help." He looked the Titan in the eye. "So, what you say?"

Aust: I think BE means, that it's quite an odd reaction, since you cannot know these jeep-people have anything to do with the orcs. (Right?)

OOC: correct. If I was back in time and someone pulled up and asked me some questions i'd answer. Maybe they knew why I was here.

OOC:But if the people you where with just disappeared, and then a jeep came up with a gun aimed at you on it, and they shouted something in a language you didn't understand(I'm presuming it wasn't in Austian or Nuevro Kowloonian. Only a small minorty of people in Aust speak English. Austian is the nation language, Nuevo Kowloonian is taught until 16 and English is optinal.)

OOC: That's right, I gorgot the language barrier. So What does he do?

The Titan answered:

"Our lands have no iron, lead, sulfrium and diamonds. I can supply you with the sulfur and charcoal. Name your desired amount, and we'll mount it on dragons, to encompany you to where I think there is such a deposit. The Blind General believes there are elves on this planet. You should go and seek them."

OOC: I don't know how many dragons I can send without it being godmoding... 50,000?
You probably can't warp them all to any location. You might want to work with 22 waypoints (22 shivians) to guide the dragons, once you found the elves.

The Alethrian ran fast, their legs carring them through the dence terrain faster then a few tanks could. They took Direction from the Tsurani whose eyes where quicker, and in the end ended up near the Elvish city. The Mages looked at them, then spoke in old Tsurani "Why have you come to our world? Why do you come with weapons?"

OOC Ok, now, Reading the begining more careuly, I realse for some reason TSI has said old Tsurani, which is very strange? Why?

To the north the evil men were mounting their steeds. They were to march to war with the otcs. To the east and west other orc tribes began to unite and head for glory. To the south evil men began to tame wild animals to help them in their battle. As each group joined the humans survival dimmed. They would need all to unite with them.

OOC: That's right, I gorgot the language barrier. So What does he do?
OOC: As I've posted but I'll post it again.

Karl looked around for his freinds, the wraiths. They where gone. He looked around franticly for them, then, from behind them he heard the humming of an engein. He turned.

Approching him was a Jeep, with some men in it. They yelled at him in some strange barbaric tounge. There was a machine gun on the back of the jeep, a machine gun pointed at him.

Karl leapt sidewase away from the jeep into the cover of a tree. Bullets rippled past him. He drew his pistol, and then spotted a scree slope. He slid down it and then rolled into more cover. The cover was a thorn bush, and the spikes hurt, but he didn't mind, he was watching the top of the slope. Watching, waiting, with a pistol trained on the skyline.

"That bastard knows why we're here. Lets kill him!"

Grenades rolled down the slope as XM8s appearred over it. They opened fire into the thorn bush as the Jeep was backed up. It was backed up only a little bit to protect the gunner. He couldn't see, but he could shoot the bushes. And he did so. A bullet would only be a flesh wound(so to say).

Karl saw the grenades and ran, he couldn't fight that. Behind him they exploded setting fire to the bush and hopefully hiding his escape. He fired a few rounds behind him in desperation.

Bump

The guns fired behind him. But it was no use, teh trees were too thick and he too agile. THe men loaded up and continued their search through the woods.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lord Pelaor had suceeded(Not sure how to spell it) from the louse alliance of human towns some time ago. He ruled hsi town quite well and his army was some of the best. But even he knew he stood no chance against the orc army. He quickly wrote out a letter, selaed it with his wax crest, and sent a carrier off.

To: The members of the Human Preservation Alliance
From: Lord Pelaor

We have noticed the troubles besieging your lands. We are known as some of the best fighters. But even we can not stand against the tide that comes. Nor can you. We beg of you to ally with us and to those not of the alliance to stand against the flood of evil. For only when we stand together will we continue to stand.

Your truly,
Pelaor

Pelaor had no intention of helping the other members, just himself. But they didn't know that. His army was here, all of them. Around 1 million including the vast amounts of men he had hired, and they would see action.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Vivec led an army of men, orcs, elves, and more. He knew that none could stand the orcs, his only chance was to ally with them. He was promised a spot in the alliance along with the opportunity for plunder if he could take a town. Pelaor's town.

His soldiers were ready.

The tebuchet spun as the rock was sent flying. It smashed into the walls killing those on that section. This was truly a work of art and it was used for their purposes. The several trebuchets they had launched rock after rock at the towers, gate, and surroundign walls. Eventually, they crumbled.

By the time the enemy charged the town was burning. They hit like a wave upon the beach, just flooding by al in the way. When Pelaor was finally ready fro combat he came to find a horrible sight. Evil men raped his women, orcs slew all they could find, Evil elves sniped all those in the way and set fire to all the buildings. His soldiers were fiercely battling for their lives. Skirmished raged on the ramparts, the atairs, at the gate, by ruins, in houses, on people, and more. He quickly called his captain of the guard, Captain Firlancer.

"Get your most loyal men, about 20 or so. Bring them to the Back entrance. We shall live to fight again."

"But sir, we may save some lives if we stay. Our chances may be slim but they are presnet non the less."

"When I tell you to do something, you do it."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the city burnt to the ground and atrocities raged inside the ruined walls Pelaor and his contigent of 20 men moved through the forest to the neighboring country of Amn. It was 13 cities all told, and their armies were ready to fight the orcs. Surely he could find shelter there.

Karl kept on running, he veered left out of the wood into some Ocks. Being summer the dense forlage hid him well and he waited until the enermy had passed underneath him. Then, as soon as he was sure they where well away he ran, retracing his steps.

OOC: Have they left anyone with the Jeep?

OOC: They left with the jeep. There going to look through a little more woods then leave back to base.

OOC: Mind if I nick the jeep? If this isn't okay then tell me.

IC: Karl climbed up the Scree slope and looked around. There was no one nearby as he had thought. He climbed into the seat, prepared to hotwire the thing and then saw the keys of the dashboard. He smiled and the engian. Then he accelerated off.

OOC: Not to be mean but yeah I do mind. They rode of INSIDE of it. THis is like one of three I think. They're guarded at all times and they are doing their patrol inside of it.

But if you can communicate with them you can get the honor of riding in it.

OOC:
They went off to find a large flat-topped stone to serve as an altar. Thane said a prayer to his dragon before ritually slaughtering it. The stone was red and warm. Leji whispered something near her dragons head and thrusted her sword into her heart. Thane put the corps on the altar and, out of necessity and grieve, plunged into his own sword.

The remaining dragon produced a teardrop, and flew straight to where Karl was.

There is a dragon coming to your aid. It will arrive whenever you want to, it's yours to command.

OOC:


There is a dragon coming to your aid. It will arrive whenever you want to, it's yours to command.

Your quoting yourself? And sending aid to yourself?

OOC: hèhè no...

It's for Aust (It's OOC as you can very well read.)

The quote was from way earlier.

The Titan signalled his advisor, who had been waiting in the corner of the room for the entire meeting. The servant quickly went through the nearest door. There were more servants waiting there.

"Prepare 24500 carrierdragons, 25000 attackdragons and their riders, now!" ordered the advisor, and to another servant:

"Mount medics, priests, scouts and weaponsmiths for a total of 500. Then load the carriers with charcoal and sulfur."

Immediately after this being said, the servants started running and ordering others. Within minutes it was all life in the palace, and it would soon 'contaminate' the barracks.

OOC: Carrierdragons have slightly bigger wings and are trained to transport heavy loads, while attackdragons are trained for speed and agility, and have more powerfull jaws.

OOC: A map of the scene. (As I see it..)

The Human side is not yet controlled by anyone, and no information is given about their status (modern, future, medieval) so if anyone feels like controlling them I think it is ok.

They're medival, the humans.

OOC:Okay.

IC:KArl wondered what to do, he had escaped his persuers, for now, but he was trapped up a tree and they'd be back soon. He considered suicide for a moment, but dismissed it as out of hand.

Then, out of the air, a dragon swooped. Rembering the Dragon people had been his freinds Karl jumped out of the tree and waved his arms to attract it's attention. When it landed he climbed aboard, whispered to the dragon thqt he wanted to find the Dragonriders, without much hope that the beast would understand him. The dragon seemed to nod and then took off.

OOC: I made a map of what I imagined it looked like. But I cant get it hoted at imageshack.

cant u just host it here?

OOC: Please reply to this.

IC: The dragon swooped through the clods and then let out a long screech, then there where answering screeche's from far away. The Dragon dived, KArl just about holding on to it's back, upon the Dragonryder's army.

OOC: I tried, it didn't work. Ill try again now.

OOC: We'll have to wait for the Shivians. The supplies my army is transporting are being transported for them.

IC: The convoy was ready and waiting for a signal. The bags of sulfur and charcoal were mounted on the carrierdragons and the escorting army was prepared for 'march'.

"General Mcarthur."

"Yes?"

"You know that large orc army we stole orcs from."

"Yeah."

"Well they have begun to attack human cities."

"Really."

"Yes."

"Have we recieved a reply from Doomingsland?"

"No sir."

"Alright. We will stay neutral. But immediatly alert me when we recieve a reply from Doomingsland."

OOC Sorry bout the wait, I have just had my computer packed because we where moving, so I have not had accese to the Internet. Now.....

IC the Shivians looked at the dragons with wonder. On a thousand worlds, the Packs had never seen such a beast. These men deserved respect, as well as admiration. The Shivans activated their jet packs and followed the Dragons. After a few minutes study, they wored out a way to warp all the Dragons to a place they had found good for their needs. THey smiled, and transported the Dragons carrig their Equitment to a huge plain, one that was far away from the orks, and the war. From here they could build their Machines, bt they would nee a few things. Thus, they would go to those Elves the Titan had spoken of, then they would be forced to take slaves, for the death and suffering of a few did not matter if the orks caused it to all. Thus, the Shivians moved to make a drastic change to this world, they intended to turn it from medieval to Industrial in a matter of weeks, a change that would be for better or for worse, they did not know.

OOC: Yikes, Industrial ages. Ughh.

Waiting...

The dragon landed at the head of the collum of dragons. Karl guessed it was time to get off, he did so and approched the head of the collam. He raised both hands in a guesture of peace. "errrr, hi." He said weakly.

bump

While the Dragonryders were moving their cargo, they suddenly disappeared. All fiftythousand dragons and riders were suddenly on another place. Panic struck amongst the animals and some of the riders' hearts skipped a beat, while others forgot to breath.
Commander Cu'fo quickly reacted to the situation:

"We are safe here! Rest and calm your dragon! We will set up camp!"

"Sir, we can continue travelling as soon as the dragons are calmed down?! Did the wolvepeople order it? We can't believe them wizards! They will betray us with their unearthly powers"

"If you can't take an order from them you'll have to obey the sword. The Titan trusts these people. Go!"

----------------

Somewhere near the group, another dragon landed with a stranger mounted.
He seemed friendly, and he could ride a dragon.
Therefor he was taken to the the commander.

"Who are you?"

The stranger mumbled something. His clothes were torn and all over his body he was covered with small streams and whipes of dried blood and mud.

"Gannastuko!"

A soldier, not looking very muscled, ran towards the commander and his guest.

"Prepare a lavish meal for me and our guests from far. I have the feeling something big is going on, and we're involved."

The Shivians looked around, then punched in the coordinets of the Elvish city. They arrived above it, without the dragons at first. They flew down, going throught the trees. Theyarrived on one of the platforms, and found one of the mages who had not gone to see the army. They said their need, but the elf look on in confusion.

OOC: I'm guessing that's my caracter.

IC: Karl had been taken to a tent, in front of him a lavishly decorated commander sat, he smpoke in a strange language, like the sort that the Dragon Riders had smoken. KArl decide he ought to interduce himself. "Em Deedee. Hirosimo, Karl, J'ai Habitude en Aust. J'ai pavium au Pacitum Hello, I am Karl. I live in Aust. I come in peace.

The stranger spoke in another language.
It sounded so funny to him the commander couldn't help himself laughing.
The visitor silently continued his meal.
After dinner, the commander guided his guest to another tent. It wasn't as big as the one they had dinner in, but it had a bed and a manger filled with steaming water, and a brush. Also some clothes lay folded up on a chair.
His dragon waited outside the tent, sleeping.

I fixed the map. Il host it in a minute.

http://img63.exs.cx/img63/8105/Timeschange.jpg

Thats what I think it looks like. Close, but a little different.

The Lone elf mage looked at them with fright, but when he saw the armour they wore, he quickly told them to follow him.

In the clearing, the other Elven mages Studied the Tsurani carefuly. The Tsurani themselves look little more then children even though most where in their late 200. The Alethrians on the other hand where giants. They all stood 10 feet tall, And had activated an armour device that covered them. The Tsurani spoke to the elves, talking about how they knew the languge. The Alethrians looked at the armed men, and made a sound similar to a growl.

OOC In case you wondered. The armour the Alethrians wear is the same as Predirtor armour from Alian vs Predior. They look human underneath, but they look like that.

Karl slept, in the morning he rose and changed into the new clothes, they didn't quite fit, but he could cope, he had to find that General again. He prepared to leave the tent.

bump for people to see the map I posted

The stranger was finally awake. Cu'fo offered him a breakfast. He decided to teach him the basics of the Dragonryders' language. First his own name.

"Cu'fo", he said repeativly while pointing at himself. More really simple words followed like yes and no, come and wait.

When Karl got the hang of it (a bit), Cu'fo handed him a sword for swordpractice.

------------------------------

Under the city of N'Vava, practice was also going on. Leji and Thane were learning how to mount their ghost-dragons, and all were practicing their focus skills. They spent days just trying to lift a feather, but Leji finally succeeded, and was now focussing on a very small stone.
The dragons also had to learn how to grab a feather, but no successes yet.
The blind General had a lot of experience, but these things could in the end only be learnt by trying. A lot.

Karl took the sword and made a few experimentle sweeps. It suited his balance and build so he sheifed it, andmover his gun to the other side. He smiled at the general and spoke, "El Tesh, Cabon." So, where are we going. He followed it up with a few words in there language and some hand movements.

"Sir."

"You know the situation of the battle?"

"Yes."

"Shouldn't we join a side?"

"Not yet."

"But sir-"

"I want a reply from Doomingsland!"

OOC: Doom, a reply to my communqiue would be nice.

He smiled at the general and spoke, "El Tesh, Cabon." So, where are we going. He followed it up with a few words in there language and some hand movements.

"I'm not sure."

OOC: Also a post from the Shivians, when they have time, would be nice.

"I'm not sure."

OOC: what village?

BUMP!

OOC: Why I outta, you know.

*Picks up frying pan, gives dragon ryders a sizeable BUMP on the head*

Bump that

19 Of the Shivians talked to Barca for a minute, before activating their Warp packs and arriving back at the camp. They where lead by the one who was missing both real eyes, and he walked to the Generals Tent.

"The Commander has orders, we will oversee you make the weapons, and we will make a large number of molds to make them. As for him, He can earn his food. Understood?" The last he said in a large voice, daring them to Challange him.

"We're here for escorting the cargo for the Shivians." Cu'fo pointed at the carrierdragons and, when he saw the confused look on Karl's face repeated: "For the Shivians."

OOC: before the wriths disappeared, they went to ivestagate something burning, he thought it was a village.

IC: "The Shivians, oh the wolf people, what are you escorting?"

IC: Cu'fo walked to a couple of bags and scooped up a small hand of sulfur, and some charcoal bits from another bag, to show Karl. "We're transporting this." He put it back. "I have to go now. The Shivians have requested a meeting to explain their plans a bit."

"Thank you, I understand now." To him the parts seemed a bit basic, they looked like nothing more than basic macinary parts, "Can I come to this meeting?"

"Thank you, I understand now." To him the parts seemed a bit basic, they looked like nothing more than basic macinary parts, "Can I come to this meeting?"

Cu'fo thought about for a second. "Yes, you can. You probably have more knowledge of future technology than I do."

OOC: it's not machinery parts, it's raw material. (Sulphur Symbol = S http://www.vanderkrogt.net/elements/elem/s.html
see left side.)

Cu'fo thought about for a second. "Yes, you can. You probably have more knowledge of future technology than I do."

He listed the lid and coughed, "Hell. Thats Sulpher you got there, why the hell would they want that to be carted around?"

Secret IC:

"sir."

"What?"

"There seems to be many nations coming together to fight the orcs."

"If we joined them, do you think we would get loot and plunder?"

"No sir. They are most definetly the good force and would nto allow us to do so."

"Wait..I have an idea. We ally with both sides, revealing to both we are a double nation. But we tell each side we are working to get them to win. Personally I dont like orcs, but the other side would surly be more of a thorn if we sought to carve our own knigdom. So whoever wins...doesn't matter.

But when they win the army shall surely be small. ANd ours shall have grown. We then take what we want, wheather it be orc or human land. THen our army shall ensure no one takes it."

"Excellent sir, and still no response from Doomingsland."

"Danmit. Send them another message, include this plan and see if they want in."

"Yes sir."

IC:

A lone man rides up to the human capitol. His horse kicks dirt in his apporach to the city.

OOC: very interesting indeed. very clever, too!

IC: Cu'fo replied to Karl: "I have no understanding of what they want with that. I believe it had something to do with a weapon. But why would they paint it yellow? The colour of a sword doesn't improve it's effectiveness in my opinion."

OOC: very interesting indeed. very clever, too!

IC: Cu'fo replied to Karl: "I have no understanding of what they want with that. I believe it had something to do with a weapon. But why would they paint it yellow? The colour of a sword doesn't improve it's effectiveness in my opinion."
"it's it's colour. Sulpher is a element, a metal. It is also deadly poisianus. However I don't see how it could be used as a weapon."

bump

IC: They waited in the meeting-tent. And they waited very long, Karl and Cu'fo. Cu'fo decided to have someone look for them. About an half hour later, the soliers reported: "No sign of the Shivians at all."

"I hope they come back soon. For now, we'll have to do without them."

"We go back?"

"No, we can't do that! There's a slaughter going on, and our kind of people, the humans, are getting massacred."

Cu'fo retreated to his tent. There he thought about how he could battle the seemingly infinite orctroops. He sat there for hours, but nothing came up. He had to eat something, so he went to the storage tent. The food was becoming old. Cu'fo realized he would have to make a move soon. A rat was feasting on some bread. Just as Cu'fo reached for his dagger, the rat sprinted away to the back of the tent where the bags of sulphur were stored.

"Try eat that, stupid rat..."

Suddenly Cu'fo had an idea. He ordered to adapt the carryingbags. On the bottom of the bags, a small patch was made, which could easily be ripped off by the ryder.

"Load these with sulphur and mount them on the Carrierdragons. We can win the coming battle with this."

Karl sta on the edge of his bed, it was small and primitive by Austian standards but it was comftable. He was thinking about how to turn sulpher into waepons, then he rembered a chemistry class he had had at school. What would happen if you set fire to sulpher....

He raced off to find Cu'fo.

OOC: Where's doom?

Who know's?

OOC: I TGed him.

Cu'fo walked back towards his own tent with a big smile on his face. He almost bumped into Karl, who was standing right in front of him.
"Karl! I've got a great idea! You told me the sulphur was poisonous, right? We're going to spread a cloud of sulphurpowder over the orcs using our Carrierdragons. My plan is so controversial, even the advanced Shivians wouldn't know this technology!"

(Cu'fo was wrong here, ofcourse.)

Secret IC:

"Sir, no reply."

"DANMIT! All right. Send this message to the Humans. And this to the orcs.

----------------------------------------------------------
A man personally rides to the dragons and humans and delivers a letter to those in charge

General

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Several men had to sneak into orc lands and leave the message with an orc patrol.

From: Borman soldiers
To: The mighty Orc army

We know of your massive army that sweeps the land. Much loot and plunder has fallen under your banner. If you are defeated, which we know you woun't be, ther humans shall turn on us. As such and with a craving for plunder we pledge our army to you. We shall help you to take the humans.

Sincerely,
General

Cu'fo walked back towards his own tent with a big smile on his face. He almost bumped into Karl, who was standing right in front of him.
"Karl! I've got a great idea! You told me the sulphur was poisonous, right? We're going to spread a cloud of sulphurpowder over the orcs using our Carrierdragons. My plan is so controversial, even the advanced Shivians wouldn't know this technology!"

(Cu'fo was wrong here, ofcourse.)
Karl smiled, "Also, sulpher expolds when we burn it, and that stuff that those boxes was made of was pottasium, it will expolode at the slightist tough of water or flame. If we set a fuse to it, and then drop it from the air, as well as the poisnous sulpher, well, I wouldn't like to be those Orcs."

Somewhere in the open the two men spent some hours experimenting with small doses. When they got the hang of it, the trick worked most of the time.
A guy on a horse kept his distance, but he seemed eager to come closer. They ceased their experimenting and signalled him to come. It was a messenger. He looked around him to see if there was a person higher in rank present, but he quickly noticed Cu'fo was probably just that person. He delivered the letter, took a sandwich from his saddlebag and drove off.

"Well, I can't read this..." said Cu'fo. He showed the letter to Karl. "Your language?"

OOC: IT was in english/Borman. SO if you don't know that, yeah, we probably wont ally.

OOC: I don't know what language(s) Aust has.

OOC: i DON'T THINK HE SPEAKS IT BECUASE (Sorry, caps) he couldn't understand my men before.

OOC: Aust speaks Austian, but English and Nuevo Kowloonian, (Related to Austian) is also taught.

IC: Karl looked at the parchment, he could almost reconise it, it was in English but he had never been a good Language student. He tried to pick out indvidual words and get the jist.

"Something to do with war, orcs and an allince I guess." he said after a while, "but I can't really translate it."

"Sir. I gave them the letter. They looked somewhat confused. But I think one of them got it."

"O god."

"What?"

"MAybe they think we are telling them we are allied with the orcs. You...whatever. um...Go back. See if you can help them understand."

"Yes sir."

And with that the man came back to the peopes and tried to explain that he would help read it.

The messenger came back, he seemed to be unholy fast.
"Lemmi re i tuyu" Again that gibberish language from the letter...
Karl understood him better.

"I hope they understand."

The man took a deep breath and then rad the whole contets of the letter. He put it donw and looked at the men.

((OOC: I already wrote the letter so you can look a couple posts back to see it.))

Karl did understand it, well most of it anyway, he smiled and spoke to his freind, "he's saying that his people want to ally with you."

"An enemy of evil, is a friend to us. Could you translate that for me? Also tell him we're going to attack tomorow. We will ascend to the skies in the early morning. And warn him to stay away from where our dragons are attacking."

The man was about to leave. But when he saw the one who did not understand him stay something he stood back to attention.

Karl told the man in broken English what they where planning to do.

OOC: What are you planning to do. Fly sulphur over the orcs?

OOC: Yep, A sulphuric cloud is not healthy. It's also highly flamable. It'll be Vietnam: Medieval style.

yes, that is hwat where going to do, and well set fire to some potassium as well. Sin't (Almost) modern warfare fun.

Ok cool. I was imagining a massive army of insurmoutable numbers being beaten by a sheer stroke of luck, but whatever.

Cu'fo mounted his dragon and took off. All his soldiers followed short after. In V-shape they flew towards the forests.

"All that seperates us from the coming battle is this forrest! Leave now and be forgotten for eternity or fight for glory since there's no greater thing to achieve in life than to die honourable!"

The sulphur would kill a lot of enemies, but blood would be shed and the white bone swords would be coloured in red. Victory might seem certain to most of the soldiers, but they didn't know what they were up against.

(OOC: I've seen too much epic movies I guess... like it? or is it too over the top cinematical dramatical?)

OOC: I was aiming for the massive insurmountable orc army getting smashed. But I suppose I liek this. I dunno if I woud; have thought of it.

Also, you guys wanna switch who RPes the Orcs? I really dont feel like it lately, and it will prevent someone from controlling the orcs to do their bidding.

The humans aren't controlled either, so maybe it's not such a problem

I suppose.

(Bump)

Bump - Semi-IC: Karl, where are u at? What do you think?

Bump - Semi-IC: Karl, where are u at? What do you think?
Here,

KArl watched as the Dragons began to take off, never before had he seen so many huge creatures, each looking like they'd block out the sun, how could they lose. Then he urned to the south and saw the huge dustcloud caused by the Ork army, somehow he knew it wouldn't be to easy.

The ran and climbed upon his Dragon, Cu'fo protested saying that Karl wasn't experianced enough to fight but Karl knew he had to do something to help. Taking out his pistol he fired a single shot in the air, "Let's go"

Much had happened at the camp. Karloc had eliminated all other leaders and led a massive army. It was too large for one man to rule, so he made peoples extremly loyal to him as deputies and generals. Many a city were under Orc control and several Human cities swore allegiance.

But there were still those who opposed them. Unbenowknst (sp?) to the orcs dragons were plannign to fly sulphur over. Unbenowknst (sp?) to the dragons a large coalition of Humans were going to meet the orcs.

A battle to shape the world would occur. Humans, orcs, elves, dragons and more fighting against orcs, humans, and even dark elves. Ovwerhead dragons would rain sulphur on both sides, although they hoped to hit before the armies clashed.

The large formation split up in squads of sixteen dragons each; eight fighters, eight carriers. "Attack the ugly monsters!"
Every squad selected a group of orcs, flanked them with three fighters on each side, maintaining some distance, while one carrier opened the patch and flew over them, spreading sulphur and confusion.

The orc army had assembled. The towns had been left undefended, the humans were not follish enough to break their force.

They would meet on this field. No fortresses, no seige weapons, none. All that surrounded were cliffs and mountains, perfect for snipers.

Up on ledges many an orc had hidden away, some in caves and other in other hiding places.

THe main force had assembled on the ground in rows 100 long, just spannign the battelfield.

The enemy army was in sight. Night was coming and the torches of teh humans lit thier path. Many a race had coem to help the humans, and many to the Orcs. Peoples were on both sides, but none knew of the attack.

The two armies had not closed yet, not even in arrow range. As such all of the casualties were orcs.

Dragons flew overhead and dropped soem power stuff. Ors began to choke, gasp, and cough.

"FIRE!"

Thousands of arrows went up to wards the dragons. Most lodged firmly in the dragons whilst some fell back to the earth.

The dragons were rainign hell on them but it would soon stop as the enemy army came in range.

"What do they have?"

"Looks about half our force. Orcs, Humans, Elves, I think I see some dwarves, dragons will no doubt coem to help. And..um...you remember those humans who offered us help in exchange for part of the loot."

"Yes, I kiled one fo the messangers and sent the other one back with a good beating."

"Well, they are with our enemy. And it looks like they have soem futuristic stuff."

"No matter. We shall prevail."

The window for sulphur closed as teh armies came in range, any drop would surely be carried by the wind and some would hit the humans.

OOC: If anyone is going to RP a force or race in the army dotn attack yet. Use arrows, but the orcs have some tricks up their sleeves so I will be the one who closes in range.
*Hint* Prepared ground

"RETREEEAT!!"

All the squads retreated safely to the flanks of the battlefield.
Less than a third of the sulphur was sprayed, and lots of orcs died before even being in range of the enemy.
Some twohundred carrierdragons were wounded by arrows. About ninety of them fell from the sky. Only fiftyfour of the fast and agile attackdragons got hit, and two died.
The wounded landed and got treated by doctors. Most would be battleready again in 9 days. The battle would probably be over by then though.

"We delivered an excelent first strike, brave Ryders. Their morale will be low so that our friends can defeat them."

OOC: Could someone tg Lessr Tsurani?
I think he could very well be the one to lead the 'good' side. The humans and elves etc. Actually we've created a scenario which allows a lot more players to participate. All races can be commanded by a different player. Makes it more tactical... Also, we kind of strayed from the initial idea: modern vs medieval vs fantasy.

OOC: Yeah, pretty much LOTR.

IC:
The orcs waited for the enemy force ot come.

OOC: I guess Ill TG him. But yeah, you guys each wanna pick a side on the 'good' side to RP. Ill be the Borman soldiers. Dragonryders-dragons.

Bump

OOC Sorry Guys, for some reason search never showed this one had new Posts, so I thoguht it was dead. Anyways. I will be chaging all my Charicter names, Since I can't find them.

IC The Tsurani spoke, slowly at first, but it became quicker as time went by. The Tsurani mind was complex, but the fact was they could learn, and remember, things much faster then humans. Arkyla ((Mage who started the Idea to attack)) Listened, but did not speak. After they had finished, he looked at the weapon the Alethrians Had.

"Tell Me" He said, slower to allow the Tsurani to Understand. "How much time will it take you to make armour like your warriors?"

"We can not, besides, the stuff is usless, used to make the enemy fear them." said on in a small voice. The Alethrians Numbered 50, and they held their weapons with easy. A laser on one shoulder, pulse sword on the belt, two pistols on the legs. The Tsurani seemed to ponder, then it smiled. It withdrew a part of a device, which was silver. The Other Tsurani also drew parts, and they asked their guardians to let them down. They attached the devices, then started to work the machinery.

"We can give you equitment that is similar to yours, but has better range, effectivness and power." They smiled. They pressed in a number of keys, and something resembaling a flash light appered. It scanned every single one of the Elves, before giving them armour that looked better, besides being the same shape, and weapons that almost looked the same as the old ones. The Spearmen where equipted with Trinamite spears, which where stored at a meater in lenght, and opened to be almost 12 feet. The bows where made of Aliminiate, which lighted the arrow and fired it towards the enemy, giving it a Km in range, and it lighted itself. The army also had a few number of tanks, anti-grav bikes and even a number of APCs. The Tsurani beamed at the greatest of their skills. The Entire mage coucil was dressed in colthes that reprisented their element, and had items that enhanced their own powers. The army was ushered into 50 huge transports, which the Tsurani would piolit themselves. This would get the army to the battle sooner. The Machine had run out of power, so it was left.

OOC There, made it FTvs Fantasy.

More civs/players needed, in my opinion.

Let's make this a big battle!!!

OOC: Definetly. Ill try to get Doom back and get GE here. I might be able to get more.

I would like to join in this battle!

I presume you will be modern. If so RP some of your forces (Does not affect NS) comign to here through a portal or something like that. Then pick a side, humans or Orcs. Borman is helpign Humans. I am also RPing the orcs.

He could also RP the humans, just pick a side and a race. What do you think B?

OOC: You could, want to KP?

Kp?

Kp?

Knight Phalanxia.

Kp?Knight Phalanxia
*Slaps himself*

Lol, your forgiven

I was working on some new project lately. BUMP!

Is that a BUMP on my head?

no, its a BUMP

That's a BUMP already.

OOC: This will just be a bump contest untill Op. Brimstone ends. Then I can give more time and we can probably start this.

Aust and I are in on it and KP is with me in CAD which is fighting another war.

Man grabs frying pan. Smashes it into Dragonryders head. Leaves a massive BUMP on Dragonryder.

Pulls carpit from under Bromans feet leaving a massive BUMP in his head.

Suddenly it BUMPed into him: he forgot to pick up the groceries!

Pulls carpit from under Bromans feet leaving a massive BUMP in his head.

Punches to sids and leaves massive BUMP on Aust and Dragonryders faces.

Titan uses Luger to pistolwhip you. That's a bump, no doubt about it.

*Leaning tower of Pisa falls*
*Time freezes*
*Borman moves tower ontop of Dragonryders*
*Time unfreezes*
"Wow, where'd you get that BUMP?"

Dragonryders' greatest surgeons remove the bump, and carefully reconstruct it on top of Borman's head.

Borman quickly god-modes a dragon sweepig in and slicing teh BUMP clean off and dropping it back on Dragonryders.

"SIR, something incredible just happened!"
"What??"
"Borman got a spontanious BUMP"
"Is it contagious?"
"No, sir."
"Good, stop bothering me then, and go away."

The borman soldeir fingered the clips of his new BEWD. As he began to dream of what he could do with it he saw his target.

Two Dragonryders' people stood out of a car and he shot one square in the face. The body fell onto the second man leaving a massive BUMP on his head.
