Please just leave this kind of rp to join:
*Name*
*Age* *Race*
*Squire or Laymen*
*Quick Bio*

OOC: Also you will be able to advance through the ranks as you gon through it and earn items of Eternal make and Eternal power. This thread is going to be open to conversations, battles, and people learning no things.

Name: Remius Emanuel Miron
Age: 22
Race: Human, sub-species: Theao*
Service: Squire
Quick Bio: He heard of the creed of the Eternal and found it interesting and fit in well with his personal beliefs. He headed to the monastery to learn more about them.

ooc: * slighly higher baseline speed/stamina/strength/intelligence(learning speed/comprehension/retension), powerful immune system, improved natural healing rate, improved sense of sight/smell/hearing, more efficiant digestive tract.

OOC: I am thinking in order to see an Eternal directly people have to at least advance three ranks and to talk to one you have to have be at least of rank five does that sound okay? Also Eternals strongly beleuve slavery is wrong while servitude through free will is alright with them/

To meet Remius a few Eternal servants went to meet at the outside of the gate and there they said to him," Weclome to the monastery of the Eternals."

"I have come to learn about the Eternal Creed." Remius said to the gatesmen. "My name is Remius Emanuel Miron."

ooc: Points if you can guess the band I was listening to when I came up with him.

OOC: *Bangs head* and says," Sorry can think of it have had a tiring day.

The gatesmen answers," Very well you many enter."

The massive gate opens to reveal a golden, silver, diamond, crystal interior with many gems and decorations iupon the walls and floors inside another servant this time an Knight of the Eternals walks foward and says," You wish to learn the creed then you shall have to earn and train like you have never imgained possible and study the countless archived materials of the great libary here."

"Would it be possible to get a tour of the monastery?" Remius asked as he followed the Knight*. "Shall the training begin today or sometime later?" He asked as he took in the monasteries design and architecture.

ooc: Take his intials
*Which Knight rank?

OOC: It under Warriror the same as squire. Also last post for tonight.

"I shall give you a tour of the monastery and your training shall beghan after we asses your strengths and weaknesss both mental and phyiscal after the tour."

"Alright." Remius replied

ooc: I was wondering as you have the Knight of the Holy Order(you have a spelling mistake in your post, it being Oder) and Knight of Eternal Justice.
Also his initials stand for R(emius) E(manuel) M(iron) or R.E.M. and good night as well.

OOC:Okay thanks andn also he an Knight oif the Holy Order or Oder amd a;sp got it R.E.M. after is a good group, band, or whatever you want to call R.E.M.

The Knight answered," Come with me and we shall begin yor first test of pyhiscal fitness."

Alright, what does the testing entail?" Remius asked as he followed the Knight.

The knight answered," It entails the running of a 40 km in five hours up a steep rocky slope, the liffiting of twenty one hundred kilogram rocks, and the fighting of eight fiercsome beasts."

"In that order? Also will the testing be done here, at a higher altitude or a lower one?" Remius asked, "And what weaponry is there to fight the beasts?"

"Yes, and the it will be done at a stable altiude close to the norm of this world and also you can use old stlye spears, shields, armor, and swords for fighting the creatures."

"Then shall we begin the test?" Remius asked

He answered," Yes, now we are at the transporter to the site."

Instantly a silver light brought them to the testing grounds of the monastery of the Eternals.

Remius begins stretching in preparation for the test. "I'm ready whenever."

He responds," The first step of the walk represents your journey and the hardships it takes to gain the enlightement of the path of the warrior branch of the Eternal faith. Through this the ascent also represents the ascention to the grace and light of the Eternals."

"One question prior to you saying go, what happens if someone fails?" Remius asked

'THe either have the choice of leaving or becoming a servant of the Eternal and later after the passing of a year, standard time, you can retake the test only if you have become a servant for that year's time."

"Is the course well marked, and I'm ready for you to say go." Remius said as he finished stretching and took a running stance on the line.

The knight said loudly," The course is now fully prepared now go and may the speed of the Eternals be upon you."

Remius had figured the speed he need to travel and set off, going faster than needed to get in under time, the better to deal with the areas that needed additional time to complete.

The path had cleared mostly save for a few spots of dense rock areas of which many had to be climbed or jumped over in order to succede in bypasing them.

Remius kept up a steady pace, leaping the rock piles where possible, climbing those he couldn't leap.

After a few hours of hard running, climbing, jumping, etc. the finish line was visible.

While he was starting to tire, he pressed on and drove himself to the finish line.

The Eternal knight who had accopamined Remius to the start had been replaced by an Elite Crusader who said to him once he had reached the finish said," Congrualations now you have advanced to the second test."

A beam of light took them to a place and he then said," You must take each of the rocks twelve meters to represent the twelve months of the year and the twenty one stones represent the twenty one years that you have lived through entirely. Allso the weight represents the burden of that year and then by putting it down is you letting go of that burden."

"Excuse me but you made a slight mistake, I'm twenty-two, not twenty-one." Remius commented as he headed over to the rocks, braced, lifting with his knees, picked up the first of the rocks and began to lug it to the indicated spot.

ooc: Last post till I wake up again, would say for the night but it's already morning.

The man responded," Nay, but yet you have only the burden of 21 full years you have indeed have had 22 days of birth pass, but you have not lived to 23 when you would have lived a full year. Also I could add another rock if you like though to represent the time you have had in your 22 nd year."

OOC: Alright, goodnight.

"I know I'm going to regret this," Remius muttered, "Add another rock, I won't cheat because of your mistake." He said to the Crusader as he lug another rock over.

ooc: He'll have to move almost 5 tons.

The crusader moved his hand and a large rock apperared and he said," Here, also I did not make a mistake my people reckon time ih the amount of years you have fully lived not in the number of years you have entered that is where the mistake as you see it orginated."

bump

Remius continued to lug the rocks.

The crusader said to him as he was carrying one of the rocks," You are nearly done and when this test is finished you will be more self-undersatanding and also you will have dropped the burden of many years of life."

Remius grunted in reply as to talk while shifting the heavy stones was difficult, especially as there were only a few left.

Then as Remius had just finished the last stone the Crusader said," Now you have passed the test of both strength and also that of relasing the burden for your years of life."

"Shall we proceed to the next test then." Remius said as he began stretching to work-out his kinks from the stress of the lifting.

The Crusader says to Remius," The final test shall be proceded over by an Elite Guard."

Another beam of light carries them both to an arena where eight beasts in cages await the battle agianst Remius and when the two wlak a little further the Elite Guard greets them and he says to them both," Crusader you are dismissed and Remius you have done well to reach it this far for this battle your weapons, shield, and armor have already been selected and prepared for you."

The Elite Guard waves his hand and Remius is transported to the arena floor right next to the cages and during the process his armor, shield, and weapons have already been equipped on him. When this was done the Guard said in a boomingf ovice," Let the battle now begin."

After he said this all of the creatures were realesed from their cages.

Remius unencumbered himself by throwing the less usefull weapons in a pile by the wall as he took the wall, near the pile of weapons to limit his need for defense.

ooc: what beasts/weapons are there?

OOC: There are swords, pikes, spears, axes, and battle hammers. Also the beasts are about the size of a bear with the strength of a bull.

The beasts snurled and roared awaiting for him to pick a weapon signalling that they may attack.

Remius tossed the shield aside and picked up a Lochaber axe, weilding it in both hands, he stepped forth to cleave the first of the beasts.

Two of the beasts charged at him directly at him with tooth and claw agianst him openly.

Remius danced to the side, axe singing thought the air as it cut rents into the flesh of the beasts.

Three other beasts upon realizing that two of their comrades were died let forth over the bodies of the fallen ones and renwwed the attack upon Remius.

Remius weilded the Lochaber with fluid grace, using the spike, hook and blade to cut throught and into the beasts.

OOC: Here's my guy,(gee, another 'toss, go figure :p ) I've decided to include their areas of greatest skill(top 3, in order) in all of my characters from now on, should make things easier for everyone involved.

Name: Celeborn
Age: 387
Height: 7'8"
Weight: 425 pounds
Skills: Pyrotelekinesis, Telekinesis, Empathy

IC:

A tall grey-blue skinned figure reaches the monastery gates, he is here to learn the wisdom of the Eternals, like his Bretheren on their Homeworld.

Each of the mighty creatures fell and then the remaining ones attacked Remius hoping to kill him.

The Protoss was welcome into thwe monstary as the Eternals were already sure of his abilities from the contact with other the Protoss upon one of the Eternals' world. Then a High Priest of the Eternals asked him," What do you wish to begin as an squire of the warrior caste oe as an laymen of the spiritual caste?"

Then a High Priest of the Eternals asked him," What do you wish to begin as an squire of the warrior caste oe as an laymen of the spiritual caste?"

"I would be a squire by preference, my skills reside more to the matial disciplines."

Remius continued to slash into the beasts, using the axe's reach to stay out of the beasts range.

The High Priest answered," Then you shall be, but also since we know that the Protoss are all well trained and their mind homed you only have to answer this riddle properly to become a squire and here it is, 'A river flows to sea of silver and the sun rises with each dawn, but yet it will eventually fall what process ovvurs in common between these two things'?"

Then at last all the beasts were slain and the Elite Guard answered," Congrualations you have passed the physical test to become a squire the last one is to this riddle, 'Time mat pass and those within it are bound to grow weary why is this so'?"

The High Priest answered," Then you shall be, but also since we know that the Protoss are all well trained and their mind homed you only have to answer this riddle properly to become a squire and here it is, [FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]A river flows to sea of silver and the sun rises with each dawn, but yet it will eventually fall what process ovvurs in common between these two things?"

"Time, though the course may change sometimes,with time rivers always reach the sea, with time the sun shall rise and the sun shall fall, they are connected by Time and Tides."

The High Priest asnwered," Your point is corret and valid so now you are a squire or should I call Squire Celeborn."

Then at last all the beasts were slain and the Elite Guard answered," Congrualations you have passed the physical test to become a squire the last one is to this riddle, 'Time may pass and those within it are bound to grow weary, why is this so'?"
"It is so because time wears down all things." Remius replied

The Elite Guard responded," Good, you have done well as even the Eternals minds grow weary at times of their immortality and vast amounts of their accumlanted memories. Now you are a squire of the Eternals Remius."

"What should I do know?" Remius asked

The High Priest asnwered," Your point is corret and valid so now you are a squire or should I call Squire Celeborn."

"Address me as you wish, I would prefer Squire Celeborn though."

The High Priest said," I congradulations and also now I shall commit you to ther sevice of one of the Elite Guards."

A beam of light carries the Protoss to the Elite Guard who is traning Remius abd upob seeing him he says," Hello, Squire Celeborn. This a fellow squire who is named Remius. Alright, then since lets' put down the formalties and go to first step of both fo your traning now you shall both forge blades of the strongest and finest of the Eternal metals and Eternal gems."

The High Priest said," I congradulations and also now I shall commit you to ther sevice of one of the Elite Guards."

"Nice to meet you Remius." He turned to the Guard, "Servaian? Or something else?"

"Hello Celeborn. So what kind of weapon are we suppose to make?" Remius asked

The guard said," No it is not servaian this metal is far stronger and beautiful material that is Everian."

"So like I asked, what kind of weapons are we suppose to be making?" Remius asked

"You are making long swords," the Elite Guard responded.

"Then shall we get started?" He asked

Here's my guy.
Name: Myriclav Fracori
Race: Dragon
Age: About 400 years (Dragon equivalent of 30)
Squire
Skills: Magic powers
Bio: Myriclav heard of the new religions the Eternals were preaching and he thought it was rather interesting.

IC: Myriclav flew to the Monastery entrance and turned into human form. He waited at the entrance for someone to greet him.

A Knight of the lowest rank meet him and greeted him," Greetings, you have come to be trained as an squire, but first you must pass the three test, but yet you are a dragon and would easily pass and the only thing you have to do is answer this riddle, 'To live for great periods of time of many millions of years I have achieved great wisdom and knowledge through that time I studied only, but yet I am lacking what am I missing'?"

The Elite guard replied," Yes let is get started then."

Two great anviils, two hammers, two barrels of water, and the metal and gems were thered awaiting to be molded into the swords.

"So how do we do this?" Remius asked, looking in puzzelment at the tools.

"The metals would bend like copper in the first forging, but when hardened they will be the finest and strongest bladed you could imagin."

"Like I said, what am I suppose to do." Remius replied

OOC: Okay I used that time to look up sword making.

"Gather you desire materials and picks up the largest peice of metal and put it into the fire for a period of time then withdraw it and hammer it into the shape of any long sword you deisre, then after outlining the inital desired shape put it into the water then retract it quickly and put it back into the fire and continure this process into you achieve the desired sword shape and size. Also hammer out the errors in it."

"Wouldn't it be better to practice a few time first before starting the final product?" Remius asked

"Squire it would be, but this nessacary part of your training and also the meatals cordinate with mind of the smith to create the perfect outcome," the Elite Guard said in response.

"Alright, thought shouldn't we make the weapon we are most confortable with?" Remius asked

"The sword is the symbol of the warrior caste of the Eternal faith and it is requred to make a long sword in order to progress further in the order and carry it also, but if you wish to make a different weapon after this you may and it can be your primary weapon," he answered.

OOC: I am briniging a few charateritics of the knights of Europe into the order such as the sword being their symbol.

"Alright." Remius said as he set to work making the blade as instructed.

The Elite Guard looked down at the blade while Remius laboured upon it and helped where he could in it's making.

Remius continued working, accepting help when given.

ooc: Unless prevented, this is what the blade will look like thought with a gem instead of the skull on the hilt.http://gungfu.com/pics_info_pages/swords_fantasy_sword_of_darkness.jpg

The Elite Guard realizing that Remius was well off left momentarily to tend to a quick errand and he would back fairly guickly/

Remius continued to work, going until he felt the blade was perfect.

The Guard returned as he was approaching the finishing of his sword.

"I'm almost finished, any suggestions for finishing the blade off?" Remius asked

'To live for great periods of time of many millions of years I have achieved great wisdom and knowledge through that time I studied only, but yet I am lacking what am I missing'?"
Myriclav pondered over this riddle for a while before answering. "Though you may have studied for millions of years, you lack the power to use that knowledge and wisdom. One cannot do anything useful unless one uses a combination of wisdom and power." Myriclav knew this because it was something his teacher had pounded into him and he had known people who had failed at understanding this and what had happened to them.

The Elite Guard opened a bag of three mighty shining gems and then he said," You should put these in the blade and one of them in the hilt."

The knight responded," Congradulations, you gave given a good answer and you are now a squire of the Eternals and now you will go to the forge with other squires in forging of the first Eternal blade here."

Myriclav thanked the knight and headed off to the Forges. He watched as Remius started putting the gems into his blade. "Where do I get the materials to forge my blade?" Myriclav asked the Elite Guard.

Remius inserted the three gems, one as the pommel stone, the other two opposite each other at the junction of hilt and blade, making them part of the crossguard.

The Elite Guard moved his hand and all the materials nesscary for the Eternals and then he said," Here are all that is nesscary for the forging of your blade and you are allowed to make any type of sword."

The Elite guard said," Well done your blade is now completed and you are now advanced to the rank of a Soldier. Also now you can if you want forge a new weapon."

Myriclav examined the materials and grabbed a piece of metal that he felt seemed right. He stuck it into the fire and close his eyes. He stretched out his senses and waited until the metal was just the right heat before pulling it out. He then pulled out a hammer and started shaping the metal.

OOC:The end result will look something like this
http://www.armes-medievales.com/swords/sword%20of%20fire.jpg

"Alright." Remius said as he set to work on a Lochaber Axe.

The Elite gurad walked away from Remius then he walked over to Myriclav and then said," Good job, but remeber focus only on the blade so that the blade would be perfect."

After a while Remius was nearing completion of his axe.

The Elite Guard took notice, but continued to look over the other forging process.

"Sir, is it possible to get some gems to socket into this?" He asked the E. Crusader.

The Elite guard throws him a small bag with three large gems in it and said," Here they are."

"Thanks." Remius said as he proceeded to socket the gems and put the finishing touches on the burnished axe.

Myriclav neared the finish on his blade. He picked it up in his hand and tested it's weight. He frowned, tossed it in the air and caught it, and then made some adjustments. He tested it again. Perfect he thought. He began to work on his hilt and sheath. He first put down the basic design. Then he carved in the intricate detail. Finally he carved in runes on it. "Could I have some gems for this too?"

He tossed him a bag with the same type of gems of the orginal blade that Remius had used and it contained three gems in it and then he said," Here are your gems."

As he finished sharpening the sword and axe he asked the E. Crusader, "What should I do now?"

He stated," You should go train with you new wepaons now with the weapon master here."

"Where might I find this weapons master?" Remius asked

Myriclav put the gems in the guard and pommel and finished his sword. He sheathed it. "May I now construct another weapon?"

He answered," You may find him in the trainnign grounds right outside of the main chambers."

Then he turned his head and said," Yes, you may now conturuct a new weapon."

Remius sheathed the newly sharpened sword, hefted the Lochaber, and headed to the training grounds.

Myriclav grabbed two more pieces of metal and stuck them both in the forge. He pulled them out and started forming them both at the same time. This time to make twin katanas.

There at the traning grounds the weapon masters' meet him and said," Care to have a mock fight agianst me?"

The Elite Guard looked at the new blades and took not of the soon to be achieved result of this being carrying three different swords.

"Alright, will we be using practice or bladed weapons? And I am pretty sure you want this to test my skill correct?" Remius said with a slight inquiring note in his voice.

"We will be using real weapons," the weapon master replied.

"Alright." He said, leaving the sword where it was, he took a grip on the Lochaber and entered the ring.

Myriclav finished the katana blades and started working on the hilts. These had less intricate detail then the sword but was still fancy. "I need some more gems for these." When the Elite Guard threw him some more, he put them in and finished. He stood up and sheathed the katanas. He put all 3 of the blades on his belt. "Should I head to the training grounds too?" he asked.

The weapon master dropped his robe revealing his gaint body and then he grabbed his gaint claym ore and attacked Remius witg all of his might and speed.

Remius sidestepped the charge but used the hook of the Lochaber to try and trip the weapons master.

OOC: Why does a Lochaber Axe have a hook on it anyways. Did the people who invented it use it for fighting and grabbing things that fall through small holes? Or did they fish with the hooks.

ooc: it was originally used/invented by the scottish in the 16th century/around then. The scotsmen tended to not have mounted troops, so they had to adapt. The hook is design to aid in unhorsing mounted men, tripping/throwing off balance people, and could be used to aid in the scaling of walls.

The weapon's master grabbed the part of the handle of the weapon Remius wasn't using and he Remuis with him still gripiing the weapon.

Remius lashed out and smashed the weapons master in the hips.

ooc: Could you try not to forget words in your posts? So he dropped his claymore then?

OOC: Nope sorry I meant to imply he hrabbed it with one hand as desrcibed in my previous post and meant to incline he still had the weapon in one hand.

The weapon's master replied as he leaned o0n onw hip in pain and threw his claymore down upon him.

As WM swung the sword down, Remius twisted the shaft of the Lochaber, forcing both WM to release his grip on the shaft and deflecting the the claymore, as with a one handed swing WM couldn't get much force into the heavy blade.

Celeborn got to work, he was goig to make something a little different than a longsword, his target was a bit larger, due to his size he was making a full on hand-and-a-half sword, that was the blade for him.

The Elite Guard kept track of the labours of Celeborn and noted the size of his sword.

The Weapons Master picked up the claymore with both of his hands and swung down upon Remius with all of his force.

Remius danced back out of reach. Stepping forward and slamming a foot on the blade, he thrust the Lochaber forward in an attempt to impale the WM.

The Elite Guard kept track of the labours of Celeborn and noted the size of his sword.

The Weapons Master picked up the claymore with both of his hands and swung down upon Remius with all of his force.

"Is there something wrong with the size of my blade?" Celeborn was wondering if maybe he should have just made a longsword and done this later.

The Elite Guard responded," Nay, the sword is fine I am just supirised you would make such a large sword."

The Weapons Master moved the blade down and threw the axe off course.

ooc: No offence but Remius is standing with one foot on the blade, when the WM brought it down, Remius stood on it

OOC: I mean he moved the part of the blade as a claymore is often more then four feet long and the part of the blade he moved down at an angle to stop it.

The Elite Guard responded," Nay, the sword is fine I am just supirised you would make such a large sword."

The Weapons Master moved the blade down and threw the axe off course.

"I am used to a blade nearly half-again this size, this is not a truly massive bade by my reckoning."

Myriclav took his 3 new weapons to the training grounds. He watched as Remius and the WM fought.

The WM's actions threw Remius's strike off.

The Weapons Master thre a punch and hit Remius right in the middle of his face.

Remius reeled back, thought he kept hold of his Lochaber. He took up a defensive stance to see what the WM did.

Celeborn continued his work on the bastard sword, his next planned project was something more along his normal lines, a Bardiche, modified his way, reverse hooked and lengthened blade, more like a broad bladed spear with the ability to be used for tripping and as an axe, it was his type of weapon.

The Weapons Master cast his claymore sword with all of his might trying to break Remius's defenseive stance and win the battle.

The Elite Guard took his leave as he was needed offworld in the war against the Darkness of those who were not enlightened.

Using the axe handle as a staff, he batted the blade away, and swung his own, to slash at the WM's waist with the axe head.

The Weapons Master freed one of his arms from the hit of his sword and through it at and hit Remius's face which three him to the ground.

The Weapons Master freeded one of his arms from the hitl fo his sword and through it at and hit Remius's face which three him to the ground.

Remius layed where he was as he waited for the WM to attack.

ooc: ??? Your post is very confusing

OOC: Fixed the spelling and grammer errors in it sorry about them.

The Weapons Master spotted and said," Good fight laddy you have been defeated as I forgot as first one fell on the ground losses so as to prevent people being killed or seriously wonded. But, you have earned the rank of Holy Soldier now."

"Alright." Remius said as he got back to his feet. "And thank you."

The Weapons Master replied," You fought well and also you now recieve the armor of those of the Eternal Warrior Order."

A servant dragged out a full suit of golden Everian jeweled armor and the Weapons Master then said," This suit of armor should fit you well enouhg as we took your size and weight into consideration."

"Thank you, is it cerimonial or full use armour?" Remius asked

He responded," Both, and also the time has come for you to meet the Eternal Council."

"Alright." Remius said as he put the new suit on, transfered the scabberd of the sword, and picked up the Lochaber axe. "I'm ready." He said

A beam of light carried him to a hall a fairly dark hall only lighted by a few chandlers letting out a strange silver light and there two Elite Guards dressed in pure silver armor and then one of them said," You are to come with us to the doors of the Council chamber."

Remius nodded. "I'm ready." He said as he followed the Elite Guards.

The Elite Guards showed through a greta hall decorated by many fablous paintings and ormaneted by many exquisted pecies of gold and silver work and the half was full of Elite Guards dressesd in the same silver armor as the ones escorting him at last after walking a distance they came upon the golden doors the guards escorting went and opened the doors and said," This where the Eternals dwell here do not disrespect these beings for they are mighter and far more ancient then you can imgaine. From here you are by yourself."

Remius passed throught the doors and headed into the 'Eternal' area.

Myriclav started practicing with his katanas by himself in the training grounds.

The doors immediately closed after him and then a white light surronded him and a great voice of exquiste beauty said," Welcome Remius to the Council of the Eternals of this monstary."

"Thank you." Remius replied to the voice.

"AS a Holy Soldier of the Eternals it is time for you to take the vow of the Warrior Order."

The Weapon Master said to Myriclav," Do you wish to spar?"

"And the vow is?" He asked

"Sure." responded Myriclav. He drew his twin katanas and waited to see what the WM would use.

"The vow is, 'I give me allegiance to the Etenrals. I will obey their command as long as it is just and fair. I offer them all my skill and service's in order to bring their light to the full of the universe one day'."

The WM unsheated two large axes and waited for him to make the first strike.

Myriclav was surprised at the two large axes. I'll have to use lots of speed for this one. He darted in and made a sweep at the WM's legs.

"I, Remius Emanuel Miron, give me allegiance to the Eternals. I will obey their command as long as it is just and fair. I offer them all my skill and service's in order to bring their light to the full of the universe one day." Remius said the vow.

The WM down with his hand still on it and blocked the blow and then his flung his axe down upon his foe.

The Eternals answered," Good, now it is time for you to recieve the powers and knowledge of a warrior of the Eternals."

A great blue light decended down upon that was full of great knowledge and power and then the Eternals asked Remius," Do you accpet this gift of the Eternals to you?"

Myriclav faked blocking it to have the WM use more strength then ducked out as the axe hit the ground. He took a swing at the WM's back.

OOC: Disadvantage of fighting against katanas very hard to grab a non-sharp part of it.

The WM took the blow, but he he stood up straight and three one of his axes at Myriclav.

Oh crap Myriclav barely dodged the axe but it still nicked his shoulder. He straightened up again and charged at the WM who was down to one axe. He used one of his katanas to cut at his legs while using the other one to fend off any swings of the axe.

"I do." Remius replied to the question.

"Let it procede," the Eternals answered. Then the light descended into Remius and it fused him with many new great powerful abilties and filled his mind with much knowledge of the Eternals even though it was just a partion of it.

The WM knocked Myriclav arm so it wouldn't hit him and then he hit him directly in the chin.

Myriclav almost lost his grip on his katana but just held on. The blow to the chin launched him up and he did an aerial back flip to land on his feet. He numbed the pain and leaped over the WM while kicking out at his head.

Remius was slightly staggered by the effects but shook them off and awaited his next set of instructions.

The WM was hit hard in the head and then using his free hand grabbed him by the leg and held him upside down and brought his to Myriclav's neck and said," Do you conceade defeat?"

The Eternals asked," The water flows, but yet it seeks no end, it wished to stop, yet it ahd no part in it, what has caused this abonormality?"

Myriclav knew when to call it quits. "I concede. You win the fight."

"The answer is Time." Remius replied

The Eternals answered," Ys the answer is apporaite as time constantly flows no matter what event may happen."

The WM helped him and said," Good now you are a Holy Soldier of the Eternals, but now the Eternal Council is busy and cannot affirm the oath of the Eternal Warrior Order so for now go and study in the libary."

"What is my next task?" Remius asked

The Etermals answered," Your next task it to lead a contingment of Soldiers and Holy Soldiers off world to help in the war against the Darkness."

"Alright, I shall prepare. May I ask where I will be leading troops, who will be over me, and who will be under me?" Remius asked

"Very well," replied Myriclav. He headed towards the library and pulled out a book on the construction of the Multiverse.

A libarian of the libary said," Are you searching for information of the multiple dimensional construction?"

The Eternals replied in asnswer," You will be only under the Eternals in this operation and all the Soldiers And Holy Soldiers will be under command and to the world of Vernixa is the destination for you and the army as they refuse the light of the Eternals."

"Alright, I'm ready to head out." Remius replied

ooc: Conversion by the sword?

"Umm yes I am." replied Myriclav, wondering at how the librarian knew that.

OOC: Yes and no because they were offered to convert, but now they are to be converted by the sword.

The Eternals responded," Before you leave take this staff weapon."

OOC: If you watch Stargate enough that will be recongizable as the staff weapon of the Jaffa.

"Alright." He took the staff.

ooc: no clue what it looks like, never watched SG1.
So you offer them a chance to convert and if they say no, force them to?

OOC: It is a weapon that has a trigger on the shaft in the middle of it and also it is projects a plasma weapon at the top of it and also it is about 5 1/2 feet long. Sometimes if they are deemed needing the chnage then yes.

The Eternals then said," Go forth then and lead the armirs of the Eternals."

"Alright." Remius said as he moved out and headed back to the 'common' area.

A transport beam carried Remius to the musrering field where 3200 Soldiers and 1800 Holy Soldiers to be ready for the assualt on Vernixa then before stood an High Priest of the Eternals who bowed before him and said," You are now a Crusader of the Eternals. The blessing of the Eternals be upon this mission. When you are ready you shall be immediately be transported to Vernixa, but be warned as battle will be ensuded as soon as you land."

OOC: Do you want me to start a sperate thread for the attack upon Vernixa?

"Alright." Remius replied

ooc: if you want to do it here or another thread, I don't mind either way.

A beam of light landed Remius and the troops all armed with staff weapons landed on Vernixa.

Myriclav starts reading books on magic to learn new spells.

Celeborn finished his blade and sought out the WM, nw to see how well he could use his new weapon...

Myriclav went back to the training ground to practice the new spells he had learned.

The Weapons Master said," You looking to try some new spells go over to the field and fire at the test dummies."

The Weapons Master said to the new student," You wish to test that weapon then let us test while sparring, alright with that?"

Myriclav went to the test dummies. Then he tested out the new elemental spells he had learned and there were a bunch of frozen and fried dummies. He tried some conjuring spells and some of the dummies met their ends to magical weapons or mythical beasts. He finally reverted to dragon form and tested his aim and shot fireballs at them.

A stander by who was a Priest of the Eternals came up and asked," Are you sure you wish to be a warrior when here you displayed great knowledge of fields of great skill and great intellgience?"

"Well the life of a warrior seems to me to be more interesting then the life of a priest. What exactly does being a priest entail?" respond Myriclav.

"The Priest goes amongst the peoples and spreads the faith of the Eternals to them. Also you will study and train for the quite a bit of the times. There are other tasks, which the Eternals desingate to each of their most able followers such as you based upon their abilities," the Priest answered.

Myriclav thought about it for a while. "No offense but I think I'll stick with being a warrior. I can fight much better than I can preach."

The Priest responded," That is acceptable as it is your choice to be in which cast of the Eternal faith you are in."

bump

Myriclav flies up and takes a nap in a tree while waiting to see when he could take the oath of the Eternal Warrior Order.

"Myriclav," an Elite Guard said," It is time for you to take the oath of the Eternal Warrior Order."

Myriclav wakes up and follows the Elite Guard.

The Elite Guard leads him through a great ornate hall then a great golden door opens and the Elite Guard says," Here it is the chamber of the Eternal Council from here you are by yourself."

Myriclav passed through the doors and entered the chamber of the Council of Eternals.

"The vow is, 'I give me allegiance to the Etenrals. I will obey their command as long as it is just and fair. I offer them all my skill and service's in order to bring their light to the full of the universe one day'."

The Eternals then said," Repeat these words."

Myriclav repeated, "I give me allegiance to the Etenrals. I will obey their command as long as it is just and fair. I offer them all my skill and service's in order to bring their light to the full of the universe one day."

The Eternals replied," Your oath is accepted by the Eternals. Now it is time for you to recieve the powers, knowledge, and abilities of an Warrior of the Eternals."

A beam of gray light descended upon Myriclav and then went within endowing him with the powers and knowledge of an warriors of the Eternals.

ooc: Is this still open if so id like to join...

ic: Name: Kulvrik al'Pinist

Age: 16

Race: Aiel

Squire

Bio: Born of the Aiel people he learned use of axe, pole, and bow at an early age and because he is aiel he is able to survive in the harshest of condition and can find water and food almost anywhere.

OOC: What's an Aiel? Poor priests aren't getting any members.

IC: Myriclav was calm as the light flooded him and filled him with knowledge and power. He finally started to realize the powre of these Eternals and what could happen if it was in the wrong hands.

An Knight of the Eternals went to meet him and then the Knight said to Kulvrik," Come with me to the testing grounds."

OOC: Don't acutally rp the tests let us just say he passed all of them and at the end of the finish let us rp being rping there.

The Eternals asked," How do fare with your new abilities?"

OOC: alright but i have no idea whats supposed to happen after that and also are there more than three people in this?

OOC: What's an Aiel? Poor priests aren't getting any members.


ooc: a race from the wheel of time series who have sworn never to touch a sword but are the fiercest and most durable warriors in all the world with any other weapon...

OOC: Never mind let us just skip to the forge there you forge an long sword for the character's first weapon and if they want they can forge an second weapon of there choice.

OOC: Sorry about all of this, have been involed with alot of threads recently, but now I have my thoughts straight.

"These powers feel good." Myriclav went deep in his body to feel and totally experience and understand his new powers. "They are perfect." he said as he came back from his short trance.

ooc: its ok

ic: Kulvrik stood in winder at how this man could not have known that he could not touch a sword but he would enlighten him on his peoples oath. "Knight, us Aiel have been bound for countless millenia by the oath of our ancestors that the Aiel will never wield a sword as it is a symbol of hostility and we were once peaceful friends of the light. I will however make a half-moon axe as my weapon and then some arrowheads."

"It is alright we respect traditions of other peoples and then after the forging of your weapon go to the monastery's gardens,' the Knight responded.

The Eternals answered," Then now we pronounce you Holy Soldier of the Eternals, and it is time for you to reiceve your first task. Are you ready for it?"

"I am ready." declared Myriclav. "What is the task?"

"You are to go to Vernixa the planet Remius was previously on to lead in the construction of the High Temple of the Eternals on the planet and you are to bring 4 Pruest and 12 Acoyletes with you to the world so that will take command of the temple after it is finished. Do you accept this mission."

Kulvrik nodded and got to work. He had litle trouble creating the weapon but he had decided to decorate it and make it ornate. The inscribeing of his clans sigil was a slow and tedious task and he had been working for nearly 18 hours before he decided it was complete. He then went on to his arrow heads and created 25 of them. With the completion of the arrow heads he made shafts and then fletching and decided he was good to go all but for one thing. A bow. He went to go find the knight to ask where he could find materials to create a bow...

The Knight replied," Here is a peice of hallow Eternal steel."

OOC: Eternal stell is stronger than any metal made by the younger races.

"I accept. Where am I to get these Priests and Acolytes?" asked Myriclav.

They will join you on the planet," the Eternals replied.

"Very well." Myriclav replied and waited for the teleporter to take him to Vernixa.

OOC: Let us use the Assualt on Vernixa thread I'll bump it up.

OOC: Since your weapon is complete you now go down to the monastery gardens when you get there the Weapons Master or WM will ask you to spar after your fight you gain the rank as Soldier of the Eternals.

Kulvrik had puit his half-moon blade on his belt and carried his bow on his back. He was ready for his next test although he wondered what it would be. To pass the time before his next test he went down to the garden to rest and practice with his new weapon which, might I add, was verry well balanced.

There in the gardens the Weapons Master said to him," The time for your next test has come and for this test you are to spar with me."

He looked over the man and thought to himself This should'nt be that hard and with that he unsheathed his axe and began to swing it around his body adding a few slashes at the WM inbetween defending himself.

The WM laughed," Not even giving me time to unseather my weapon I see. For that I will not hestiate agianst you."

Then the WM master pulled out a large double-bladed battle axe and swung with great might at Kulvrik's head.

Kulvrik made continuous fluid motions always moving and always attacking. He noticed that the WM was fighting with a double bladed axe and that would be the mans won fall. kulvrik beganmoving towards the WM always blocking and moving to differents sides and once within range he reversed his motion and moved his axe back up swinging the sharp steel tip at the opposite end of the head of the axe at the WM. If he did not get a hit he knew what he would have to do...

The WM using one hand on his axe reversed the edge that had been hit so that both inerlocked weapons were facing outward of himself and then using his free hand he threw his large fist at Kulvrik's face directly and hit him.

Falling back he held on to his weapon and moved away. Once out of range of the mans axe he threw the well balanced axe dirrectly at the WM's head and got his bow in hand and nocked an arrow and fired and he watched as the two weapons sailed towards the WM and he knew that he would get at least one hit on him...

The WM barely being to block the blows fianlly got hit as he was charging at Kulvrik then he threw his axe down and drew his long sword and strcuk at Kulvrik's side.

Kulvrik was barely able to move to the right and soften the blow but he was hit hard and went down. As he got up he reached for the small of his back and found his dagger, unsheatheing it and running at the WM ten inch blade gleaming in the light with his clans sigil amblazoned on it....

The WM sword swept the sword out of his way then he hit Kulvrik with his hilt is the back then freeing one of his hand the WM hit him in the stomach.

ooc:it wasnt a sword it was a dagger and trust me you wouldnt be able to get an aielman like that but what ever

ic: Kulvrik did not flinch from the hits. His hard life had taught him to hide pain and emotion and after being hit in the stomach he swung around and hit the WM in the back with his dagger...

Feeling the apin in his back and realizing Kulvrik's determination he jabbed into his foe's stomach with his his sword tip.

Feeling the sharp pain in his stomach and how it began to increase he jumped away from the WM and took his weapon with him. Once away from the man Kulvrik picked up his bow and resumed firing three and even four arrows at a time at the WM.

The WM took out a javelin and hurled it right at Kulvrik, hit Kulvrik in the shoulder, and then the WM took up his axe once more and charged at his enemy.

OOC: This is not a fight to the death.

OOC: i figured so are you gonna give up cus im notbesides the fact that you cant tell me that not one out of five arrows didnt hit the man...

IC: Kulvrik felt the pain of the javelin hitting his shoulder and with his right arm he picked up his half-moon axe and held the pike out towards the WM then he charged towards him, jumped to the side and swung the axe around and hit the Wm in the back while takeing a graze from the MW's axe to his chest. As he turned around and saw the WM he asked "Will you give up? Because I will not untill I am dead."

The WM responded," I will not give up, but you are truly a great fighter worth reconidtion and now you are an Soldier of the Eternals."

After saying this he fianlly collapsed and his cloak fell to his side revealing his cheat with four arrows inside of it and then two Guards removed him to the infirmary for his injuries to be cured.

Kulvrik followed closely to get his shoulder, stomach, and chest cleaned and wrapped...

ooc: whats next?

A messanger from the Eternal Council said to Kulvrik," You are summoned by the Eternal Council to their chambers as they desire your presence in the Council immediately. Please, follow me to the Council chambers."

Kulvriks ears perked up at being summoned by the Council themselves. He followed the messenger eagerly and awaited whatever came from the Eternals summons...

At last after a walk through an ornate hall they reached the great door way into the Eternal Council chamber and there the messanger stopped and then he said," From here you are by yourself and respect the Eternals remeber."

Kulvrik nodded and walked humbly through the doors...

Inside a beam of light came upon Kulvrik," Are you ready and able to recieve the power of hte higher ranks of Eternal warriors?"

Kulvrik was shocked and he didnt know what to say..."I believe so"

A beam of light descended upon Kulvrik and fised him with all the abilities of an warrior of the Eternals. Then the Eternal Council," Remeber this power orginates from the Eternals and that they can strip you of it."

"Yes. I will be humble in all tat I do and strive to help the oppressed and down-trodden."
