From upon the world of that holds the main monastery of the Eternals the forces of the Eternals assembled to bring the light of the Eternal to all. A million mortals trained and armed by the Eternals have been sent out with a billion Eternal battle droids to fight alongside them. There was something special about these warriors of the Eternal though even though armed and trained by Eternals they had also been gifted with great power from the Eternals. These warriors now issue you forth to bring the light of the Eternals to all in the universe.

The first wave has now departed from the world containing the main Eternal monastery with 300,000 warriors of the Eternals and 300,000,000 Eternal battle droids. This first force is headed by the human Remius from Theao. He himself is an Elite Crusader of the Eternals who has already proven his strength and loyalty to the Eternals.

OOC: I am looking for someone to rp the nation/empire/etc. being invaded by them. Also remember that the Eternals here are not directly linked to the main Eternal race, but are an group who have been allowed to do this as long as they themselves do not participate in the attacks upon the worlds of the younger races. The other generals will be introduced later on in this thread.

(OOC: I'd be interested in RP the defending nation, as long as I can do it as a different nation other than mine.)

Tag

OOC: Sure you can rp a minor or medium sized nation resiting them that is overun by the sheer power of the forces of the Eternals.

(OOC: Sweet. If you don't mind, I would like to make an intro post for the nation before it gests invaded. This will give a good background of it so you can invade easier.)

OOC: Sure, if you like you can even use Jedi if you like.

(OOC: Nah, I'm gonna make up some tech, and have them as "devil" worshippers as it were, so that your purging of them can be that much sweeter.)

IC:

For eons the small planet of Tamrick had sat in seclusion from the rest of the galaxy. It's people suspicious of outsiders and preferring to stay neutral and out of the way of external conflict. But it was not just their choice, it was the will of the dark God.

Since time was time, the dark God Skorm had influenced the lives of the people, and it showed. The blood red skies mixed with the blackness of the clouds stood over the landscape at all times, giving the alure of evil. The 7 towns that sat in a circle were surrounded by thick oak forests, full of strange and terrible beasts; and a blackness that made it impossible to see much more than a few feet ahead of you.

Their were 6 towns in a circle, with another larger town in the center. It was truly a land of strange portents, and secretive people. The buildings made them look primitive, as they resembled Viking architecture from old Terra; but that was not the case, the people were quite advanced.

Their fleet small, enough to properly defend the planet, but powerful and would give anyone a hard time if not instant defeat. Their armies numerous, numbering a million in total. All adorned in the black obsidian armor, that made them look as daemons. Their bracers housing the controls to activate their energy shields, which allowed them to withstand a fair beating without being harmed. The spikes on the pauldrons stuck up as twisted pillars, reaching the hight of the ears. On their right, hung a blaster rifle(SW blaster), and on their left, hung their massive swords of the mysterious black steel. The blades never loosing their edge, and the sharp spikes that protruded from parts of the blade allowed to penetrate almost any armor.

In the middle of each town stood a large black emerald statue of the dark God Skorm; but the most magnificent building of the planet, was found in the middle town which went by the name of Darkwood, in honour of the dark as night forests that surrounded the town, and made even the most battle hardened soldiers weary to travel throught them. The massive stone and black marble temple, in the middle of the town, it's black spires reaching up and scorching the heavens, the twisted towers and daemon architecture making it seem as tho Skorm himself lived there; but infact the Emperor of the planet, Lord Indoril resided in the mighty structure, along witht he many dark priests of Skorm. In front of the mighty structure sat the huge statue of the God, the river of blood flowing through the town and the rest of the land made a moat around it; and the alter where the sacrifices for the God were made gave even more blood to the stream.

Let all those with dark hearts enter and serve, and all those with good intent stay far, or face the wrath of Skorm...

Remius read over the reports of the natives of the world he was to convert. While the terrain and general layout favoured the defenders, he had the edge in the nifty teleportation system, as well as sheer numbers.

He divided the army into each of it's three component peices, and each of those into thier ten component peices. Giving the commands to the generals, he used the system to bring each of the three primary attack groups to a scant few miles from each of the three towns that they were to be targetting.

ooc: Scand, the bat-droids are ST style correct?

OOC: Yeah, these ones are at least as they were mass produced in lower then Eternal tech factories. Except they have better weapons, shields, and armor. Also they closely ressemble Super Battle Driods.

(OOC: Ooo, teleporting onto my planet so you can avoid my fleet eh?)

ooc: Just using the E tech to it's fullest

The scarce light of the fire filled the existence as Lord Indoril opened his eyes and awoke from his slumber. He took a moment to fill his lungs with the air of this world, and to regain conscienceness to it's fullest. His dark red eyes peered around the room as he searched for what had disturbed him.

What he found, was not something in the room, but rather a message from Skorm himself. Walking through the halls of the Temple, he made his way towards the main shrine and pushed open the doors of marble to reveal the large round room with the vaulted ceiling. The large black gold statue of the dragon-like body of Skorm sat on the back wall, surrounded by burning red candles. The 8 priests adorned in black cloakes finished their morning prayer and turned to face their lord.

"A fair morning to you, Lord Indoril." came the old voice of the most senior priest.

The warped and twisted voice of the Emperor boomed, "And to you Slash. Skorm has called for me, High Priest, tell me, what does the dark lord ask of me?"

Pointing to the large fountain in front of the statue of Skorm, the High Priest answered, "He wills you look into the Fountain of Death, and there you will find your answer, my Lord."

Walking over to the dark stone fountain, the blood bubbling as it streamed out of the top of the fountain. Peering in, Indoril knelt and asked in his warped voice, "What is thy message Skorm, Lord of all?"

A picture then formed in the pool of blood, and showed what was happening. Standing up, the Emperor turned and stormed out of the shrine and made his way towards the balcony of the Temple. Emerging into the dark light of the blood sun, he went to the edge of the balcony and in his booming, warped and twisted voice, he bellowed out for all to hear.

"Hear this, invaders of light, Skorm knows of your intent, and has decided against you. You have been deemed heretics by the dark God, and will be purged.

Legions of Darkness, harness your weapons and polish your armor! Today you march on the enemies of the lord and master, and protect his people from the heretics! March forth, and enslave these peoples, so that they may live in misery obeying our every command; and if Skorm shall will mercy, then they shall be sacrificed, and their blood will run and further fill the great river of Death!"

(OOC: w00t! My one thousandth post! This will forever live on as a shrine to my greatness!)

The emperor's voice slid off the droids, as they had no emotion nor knew no fear. It's effects on the Warriors would have been far greater, save for Remius's foresight. Knowing that they were going up against not just infidels, but minions of the dark, he'd ensured that each Warrior was given faith, confidence and an edge in the form of a rousing sermon and a rousing speech by himself and one of the priests of the Eternals.

At the signal the forces deployed, the droids in mechanical perfection, the Warriors in time to the beat. With the second signal, the three forces, each made up of one hundred million droids, and one hundred thousand Warriors, began marching on the targetted villages.

ooc: There are three battle groups, each one targetting a sperate village. There is a village between each of the villages getting attacked and the next village getting attacked Village1(Attacked) V2(No attack) V3(Attacked) V4(No attack) V5(Attacked) V6(No attack)

(OOC: Gotcha. By the way, I'm going to reserve the ability to summon all my dead back to life as the undead warriors sort of, but I can only do this once.)

IC:

"These heretics threaten our way of life, they threaten Skorm himself!" came the shouts of the Emperor as he continued to order his troops around from the balcony of the Temple. "They do not deserve your sympaty, and they will give you none. We are the sons of Skorm! Show them the price of defying the dark lord! Show them the price of their treason!" Then, lifting his arms into the air, bending the planet to his will, he summoned forth a large storm of rain, thunder and lightning. Lightning, that would find the metal bodies of the enemy droid armies, and would use them as conducters.


In the towns that were being attacked, the soldiers stood up on the ramparts of the great stone walls, their blasters in hand and ready. As soon as the enemy forces came into view, a formidable lightshow of red blasts flew from the walls towards the heretic forces. The towers in view of the heretics took aim, and fired their blaster cannons(think of a giant blaster round, big explosion pretty much) at what appeared to be ranks of droids.

As the beams, lightning and cannons lanced out or down depending, they blew many of the droids of each armies's first droid cohort apart. At a installed signal, each droid raised thier rifles and fired. The sheer volume of beams illuminating the field better than any spot-light.

Meanwhile the Warriors had begun setting the artillery up. Once every piece was set-up they fired so that each round would arrive at the same point at the same time. The howitzers/morters belching out rounds, while the cannons spit out fire. The wall infront of the 1st droid cohort was sure to take a beating.

Remius smiled as he counted down the time to impact, researching military tactics were serving him well yet again.

ooc: Want to assume that similar/same thing is happening at each village?
A droid cohort is 10 million droids, while a Warrior cohort is 10 thousand warriors.

(OOC: Sure, that makes things alot easier.)

IC:

Lord Indoril observed the attackers, and bellowed out his next words for all to hear, "The fools have left themselves open to decimation. They have come to our planet, and ignored our fleet, and now they shall pay the price. Come forth, aid your brothers and destroy these heretics in the name of Skorm!"

The words echoed throughout the entire planet, and into the cosmos. It penetrated the thick hulls of the fleet, and one ship was sent down to each besieged town. The great vessels, 500 meters in lenght, came down and fired their magnificent red beams of energy into the ranks of heretics, but it was not air superiority that they were after, as they prefered close combat to improve their value and favor with Skorm.

The ships crashed into the surface of the planet, in the midst of the heretics armies, sending dust and dirt into the air. And out of the ships, came 1000 warriors each. Their blasters firing rapidly until they were close enough that their put away their ranged weapons, and drew their mighty blades of the mysterious black steel. Hacking away, they severed the heads of men and machine alike, basking in the blood of their enemies, and letting loose mighty screams of war to shake the heretics to their foundations.

The men in the towns, with the exception of the men in the towers that worked the cannons, were envelopped in a dark red light, and vanished from their positions; appearing again in the midst of the battle, drawing their blades and joining in the slaughter with their brothers in arms.

From the dark sky, a mighty serpents hiss came, and a dragons face formed within the dark clouds, and Skorm beseeched his kin, and called upon them to destroy the heretics, and the earth trembled at his might...

The Eternals had a trick of their own an Eternal ship captained by an Prophet of the Eternals appeared along with thousands of lesser driods ships and hundreds driod frigates and destroyers to help in the attack. This force of Eternal ships though closer to the technology of thenir foes was still enriched by some Eternal tech. Making them stonger then their foes' ships.

OOC: I mean like not like overkill stronger I just want to make a tough space battle for you that I will proably win.

The remaining fleet that sat in space turned it's attention to the heretic vessels, and without hesitation, massive beams of red flew forth, ready to wreak havok on the enemy. The mighty fleets, their only weapons the mighty energy beams, but those beams had the destructive force to destroy an entire planet if charged to maximum power, and they were.

And by Skorms will, the stars would be purged from the heretics as well, and their corpses would be twisted and made to serve the dark lord, and would add to the ranks of dark warriors...

The Prophet ordered for the main weapon to fire. Suddenly a great beam of light emerged on the Eternal mothership. After charging for a few seconds fired a beam of light in the middle of the enemy fleet.

OOC: Sorry about that I am tired.

(OOC: Uh...you can't post my losses, just as I can't post yours. Please edit that.)

The damage dealt had been sufficiant to eliminate a full legion of the first droid cohort. There was the acidic stench of burning oil, and plastic, as well a field of broken machines. The toxic fumes were creating a increasingly dangerous and deadly miasma, while the shattered droids created an hazard to anyone trying to cross the field.

Remius gave an order to the first cohort, causing the servo-motors in thier legs to buckle, the crash of nine legions of droids well nigh deafening. With a secondary order, the second through fifth cohorts leveled thier rifles and opened fire into the defenders.

ooc: a legion is 10% of a cohort so droid: 1 million Warrior: 1 thousand

Finishing off their pray, the dark warriors turned their heads slowly to the ones still firing on them. They glowed a dark red as their shielding took most of the damage from the enemy guns, but a few had been killed because of their shields taking too many blows. Quickly, they charged into the heretics again, slashing and severing with their blades, even drawing their blasters to dual wield.

A message came from the Prophet to Remius:
"Send in the warriors now with staff weapons and their melee weapons as well. also I have to depart back to an Eternal world so i am placing you in command of the space forces as well."

OOC: I am going to sleep now.

As the defenders rushed to engage the second throught fifth cohorts, rushing headlong into thousands, if not tens of thousands of beams, the rest of the first cohort, now down to eight legions arose and opened fire. The defenders were now caught between a massive, and utterly lethal crossfire as they were fired at from nearly every direction at once.

There were numerous cases of friendly fire between the droids, but far less than might be expected when considering the number of droids and the volume of fire.

The defenders destroyed droids only to have a new droid take the downed 'bot's place.

The warriors of Skorm got in close, really close, inside the lines of heretics; making it almost impossible for them to continue firing like they were for they would hit their own more than they would their enemies. The cut through the droids, making their way towards the human flesh, almost tasting their blood already.

As the defenders attacked the droids in HTH, each droid that came up against a defender extended a blade and returned the attack. Meanwhile a force of droids proceeded to board the troop ship that had ferried the defenders to the battlescene.

ooc: last post of night

One of the dark warriors charged into an enemy droid, but tripped and bumped into his collegue.

ooc: it's your turn, not mine.

(OOC: So it is, lol.)

IC:

The droids had blades, but their skill would not match that of a warrior of Skorm. The few attacks that got through only impacted on the shields of the armor, and caused no damage but a temporary loss of balance.

But they had destroyed enough droids, and hungered for flesh. In rays of red light, they disappeared once again from the battle, and reappeared in the ranks of men; already slashing away before they were even totally there.

And as the blood spilt onto the dark ground, Skorm smiled, and his kin became stronger, and more furious in the heat of battle...

As the defenders appeared, they were met by the lethal blades and deadly skill of the Warriors.

Meanwhile, the droids began marching into the cities themselves, cutting down defenders as they were sighted.

The small group that had boarded the ship began the process of taking it over.

An Half Eternal with 12 Elite Knights of the Eternals were beamed to the top of the temple of Skorm to face Lord Indoril in combat in order to best him and his bodyguards in combat and cast down the false relgion of this world.

OOC: I plan for him to lose, but I have a supirse when his blood is spilt to appease your dark god.

(OOC: Skorm himself comes?)

IC:

The droids had been kept at bay by the walls and the few remaining warriors on the walls. The towers fired on the incoming ship instead of the battle, hoping to take it out before they could land troops in the towns.


Lord Indoril looked at the heretics as they appeared on the roof. Vermins! It is a dishonour to Skorm to even let them NEAR the temple!, the thought. Turning, he vanished back into the temple, and called for his guards.

As the Knights of the Eternals entered the temple and started moving through the dark halls, a single, black blade appeared through the chest of one of them. Taking off their cloaking, the Dark Knights of Skorm and Lord Indoril stood there, swords drawn, and blasters firing. Their hellish armor making them look like devils. But Lord Indoril didn't stand out in the crowd, even tho his armor was superior, but all the 12 knights and him all had glowing red gauntlets, showing off their dark powers. They could send one of these heretics flying across the room with a bolt of lightning, or bind them in a ball of flames; but no, they would have some fun disassembling these heretics in the name of the Dark God, and his many blessed children.

The Half Eternal being blessed with barely a portion of the strength and powers of the Eternals he was able to slay the Dark Knights cutting through them while the knights around him fought and fell defending him from their foes. Then the Half Eternals unseathing a blade of bueatiful glowing white metal yelled out to Lord Indoril," Face me you coward I fear you not for the blood of the Eternals runs through my very viens. Come forth and face me alone!"

OOC: If you want Skorm to appear you may.

(OOC: Sweet.)

IC:

A sick, twisted laughter ensued, and was heard by all, "You pathetic being! You are no match for the power of Skorm, and we are his children, his kin! I am the blessed of them all, and am held dear to Skorm, you cannot strike me down!"

With that said, and an arm stretching out towards the holy warrior, lightning filled the room and flew towards the brave fool.

The droids had been kept at bay by the walls and the few remaining warriors on the walls. The towers fired on the incoming ship instead of the battle, hoping to take it out before they could land troops in the towns.

The ship streaked forward, aiming not over the wall, but directly at the wall in a crash course.

The droids continued to rake the walls will massed fire.

ooc: sorry missed this earlier

The towers continued to fire heavily on the incoming transports, but the result was still unknows. The warriors however, continued to fire their blasters at the people below.

Large rents appeared in the hull, but that did not phase the droids crewing it as the smashed it into the wall.

Multitude of droid fell but there were still hundreds of thousands to take thier places.

He fell wounded, but not mootally, he realized he had been defeated seeing that all the knights dead save two that were in the same state he said in resignation of his fate," You have won this battle now shall the blood of mortal and Eternal mixed shall run dwon upon your altars to the Dark God Skorm. But, remeber that the Eternals will not abandon me in the end."

"These "Eternals" as you call them, will leave you, and forget you here. You are a failure, and their time is over, they will leave you in order to preserve what little they have left!" came the dark, twisted voice.

Moving towards the downed knight, Lord Indoril put his blaster back to his side, and lifting his sword into the air.

"Dark Lord Skorm! I have not failed you, and have defeated these infidels! Grant to me the soul and essence of their command leader after I smite him down, and hold me even dearer to you!"

With that, he lifted the blade high above his head, ready to chop the heretic into two.



The wall had given way, and the towns were free, but the main army of the heretics was still engaged by the dark warriors, and would fall to their might, meaning the forces in the towns might be able to hold them, but could never take the capitol and would be trapped inside, to face the full wrath of Skorm!

The Half Eternal Knight said a prayer to the Eternals," I descendant of your lines and bearer of your blood ask you to bear my soul to your loving and kind hands. Forgive the people of this world as only their leader commands them in the name of a false god. For they know not what they are going to do and have done."

With that he leaned his head down awaiting for his death to come.

OOC: At the second of his dying death and something happens....

The vast forces of the Eternal armies, having cleared the cities of the defenders, turned and engaged the Defender Warriors, leveling rifles and generating a near solid bean as they fired on mass.

ooc: You do know you're out numbered over 300/1

bumpo waiting for the finishing blow

(OOC: Sorry, I thought you were going to do something and kill my guy before he killed yours. And Theao I know I'm outnumbered, but my guys are also in your ranks, killing your human soldiers and not your robots.)

IC:

The dark warriors continued to slaughter the human warriors of the Eternals, basking in their blood and even drinking it to steal their essence and become stronger.


Bringing the dark blade down, Lord Indoril watched as the head rolled away from the body, and the blood skirted and flowed out onto the floor. The remaining dark knights walked over to their Lord, and looked down at his kill.

Bending down, Indoril took out a glass, and scooped up the mans blood, proceeding to drink it. He looked up at the roof and made his chant to Skorm; his blood red eyes wide open and his twisted, dark voice ringing throughout the planet.

"Oh Skorm, I have defeated the heretics leader! I have drank his blood, and taken in his essence! Now, give strenght to your children, and allow them to destroy the rest of these heretics!"

And his men fighting heard this, as did the heretic forces, and the children of mighty Skorm took comfort in their leaders words, and pressed on harder and more determined into the fray of battle; their armors and blades already drenched in the blood of their enemies.

A great silver white more powerful than any star enveloped the sky and a booming boice of unsurpassed might said to all upon the world," Lord Indoril you have spilled the one of kin of Eternal. You have offered his blood as a scarfice to your god then drank his blood. For this we are now allowed to intervine. You have also led the people of this world into a worship of a Dark false God. And for this your punishement shall be laid down by the Eternals themselves."

A arm from this light descended down from the heavens bearing unto the pinnacle of the tower of Skorm and from it exited an Eternal and twenty four immortal Elite Guards of the Eternals. Then the Eternals' Elite Guard then with their staff weapons surronded them and the Eternal asked Lord Indoril in a mighty proud voice," Do you seek pardon for you crimes?"

A sick, twisted laughter ensued, "You think you can scare me? You are pathetic! Your puny sorceries are no match for Skorm. Bow to me, and pledge allegiance to Skorm, and your heresy might be forgotten, and your deaths quick!"

The four dark knights lifted their weapons in response to the eternals staff warriors, and they positioned themselves around their lord.

The Eternal then raised his hand and the four Dark Knights were literally thrown into an another dimension. Seconds later he brought them back from the dimension of the damned. Then the Eternal Elite guards drew their mighty shining long sword.

The Warriors slammed into the Defenders, in many cases using the tips of thier staffs like spears, and once the tip of the staff had punched into the armour, fired a full powered round, at point blank range.

The droids targetted the Defenders who were unable to get into combat or were heavily occupied.

Lord Indoril simply laughed as he witnessed his guards killed.

"Well done, well done. You have successfully proven your power, and have made Skorm angry. Now you will face him yourself, and you will die."

That was the last words of Lord Indoril, as his body began to wreeth and contort. It spasmed frantically as the man screamed in agony; and then the body fell limp. Standing back up, Lord Indoril kept his head low, his eyes closed, and his arms crossed. The strangest thing happend, a thunder storm more violent than anything ever seen on the planet erupted, both outside and inside the temple.

From beneath the long black hair, horns emerged. From the fingertips, the nails grew longer and thicker, and from the back sprouted great wings of of black. The flesh exploded off the body, and in it's place, a black dragon, large fangs and thick yellow talons form the paws.

The great head lifted, and the red eyes appeared. And then came the hiss that had been heard before.

"You have desssssecrated my temple....and have ssssssslaughtered my children, for that you sssssssshall pay with your lives!"

With that a mighty roar filled the room, and a great blast of fire came from the dragons mouth. The flame swirled around him, and engulfed all the guards of the eternal. Their screams could be heard as their complete bodies erupted into flames, and they were taken to the realm of Skorm to be tortured endlessly.

And then, with another great roar from the beast, the entire roof of the temple blew off and sent rubble towards the courtyard below. The mighty wings spread and lifted the great beast into the air.

The Eternal waved his hand and the guards engulfed in fire were put out and then he transported them to an Eternal wolrd to heal as the guards were immortal they were hard to kill, but even they were wounded and killed by the hands of lesser beings sevants of darkness. Then the Eternal laughed," You think to threaten me with fire I fear you not being of darkness. I will fight you to defend my people and the coversion of light of this planet's people."

With great power the Eternal cast down the Dark Knights and then he withdrew a blade from it's seath on his side and the blade glowed of pure light and no real metal was in it only the light made by the will and power of it's Eternal wielder. Them the Eternal charged at Skorm flying through the air in his human form still.

From the rest of the planet, every child of Skorm disappeared into a ray of red light which went into Skorm. Their essence had just been combined with his, and gave him more strenght.

"Puny human! You cannot desssssssssstroy me!"

Just as the Eternal reached Skorm, he dissapeared, only to reappear several meters behing him; casting a magnificent ball of the very flames of hell.

The Eternal laughed aloud while delfecting the fireball with a great wind and shield. Then he said," You think me human this is my form I choose to wear in front of mortals. You wish to see my true form I will show you then."

He shed his false form and then appeared as being of light much like an angel and with his great, beautiful, mighty form he attacked Skorm with the might of an ancient being. With his great wings of energy streched and with his sword still in hand he flew towards Skorm directly not fearing him in the least.

Laughing manically, Skorm simply let the angel move closer. Once close enough, Skorm grew 30X, and swallowed the angel whole. Then he shrank back to his original form. Then, he spit out another great fireball which housed the eternal in it. The angel was trapped in the fire, until it smacked into the surface of the planet, creating a crater.

And how Skorm laughed at seeing the Eternal streched out on the ground in the middle of this crater.

The Eternal emerged from the crater summoned a great vein of ore he super heated it shaped into a great spear and then he cast at the dark god Skorm. The spear hit Skorm directly to take advantage of at least the impact shock he took his blade and increassed and sixe twenty fold and he stroke Skorm directly.

Skorm looked at the spear stiking out of his body. It had hit directly in the heart, his godly heart. Looking up, he saw the Eternal only for a moment before it's blade went clean through the large head.

Falling to the ground, Skorm created another crater in the ground, and then disappeared in a ray of light.

(OOC: Ta-da, and you win!)

OOC: That was a little short, but thanks for letting the Eternal win as I had though both of the possible outcomes. Thank you also for rping with us.

The Eternal looked down and with a wave of his hand using an secret Eternal technolgoy caputured his essence inside of a great white crystal imprsioniong the Dark God for his crimes against his people and the universe. Also the Eternal resumed his human form and went to the army of the Eternals raised his blade to the army after his victory their victory.

OOC: Are any of Skorm's followers still alive, Taledonia?

(OOC: No problem, I always wanted to see what it was like being the bad guy. And there are no survivors left. Skorm absorbed them all, and then you killed him and he became energy which will spread throughout the universe. What you captured was just his dragon-like body.)

OOC: Okay, so basically I got his dragon god form which is alot of his orginal power as a god, but most of the energy has dispersed got it.

(OOC: No, all his power is gone, and his soul. All that's left is an empty shell if you will.)

OOc: Well, can I at least have trapped his mind and a portion of his power?

(OOC: Meh, sure, why not.)

OOC: Thanks, also good night I am waiting for your reply to my post Theao.

The Warriors returned the Eternal's salute, while Remius went forward to meet him.

The Eternal answered the soldiers with another salute," Hail, the vicitorious dead."

"Hail." was the massed, but reverant replied.

"We are honoured at you appearence, and I am grateful for your battle turning aid." Remius said

The Eternal responded," I am thankful for your praise though this battle cost to many of our people and the entire race of this planet."

"Yes it has." Remius replied, "Perhaps once this world was purified, it could serve as an outpost or monestary for the faithful."

The Eternal answered," This wish of yours shall be granted fro your great service to the Eternals and their peoples."

He clapped his hands together lightly and a great and mighty light dpread across the world slwoly in it's wake bringing light and vegation to th8is world as it spread till it entirely was enveloped by the light then it stopped leaving behind a beautiful lush world of light and magic.

"It shall serve as a testament to the fallen, both those who were slain by thier ruler, and those slain in the line of duty." Remius said as he looked around him.

The Eternal bowed before Remius and then said,' Hallowed are the Eternals, and great is their mighty servant Remius."

Remius returned the bow, "I am great because of my faith in the Eternals." Remius replied

The Eternal rose and said," You are now appointed to the rank beyond that of an Elite Guard you are now the Blade of the Eternals. For your services also you shall now be made immortal as to serve the Eternals forever."

He waved his hand and a great sphere of light descended into Remius's body granting him immortality and even greater mental and phyiscal powers.

"I thank you for the gift and honour." Remius replied, bowing deeply.

"Remius, oyu are now to stay here and rebuild this world as currently after I leave 5000 settlers from many hundreds of the worlds of our faith shall come every day," the Eternals responded.

"I shall goverorn(sp) this world well." Remius replied

The Eternal answered," Fare well Remius. For now as you shall be called upon again soon."

THe Eternal departed and in his place 5000 settlers had arirvied.

Remius began having the settlers build and settle. He had them build a blend of technologies and nature in thier homes, incorperating trees, hills and other natural obstacles in the buildings.

The Eternal Council sent a message to Remius:
"Blade of the Eternals you have done well, but we wish that this battle be remembered well so we propouse some sort of moument to the fallen soldiers of the Eternals be built on the planet."

"I will ensure there is a monument to the fallen warriors." Remius wrote in the return message.

The Eternal Council responded," You are correct the very planet is the monument to the fallen. always rember them as they were all your brothers and sisters in arms and their spirits will always be cared for by the Eternals."

OOC: Goodnight i am going to bed.

"It is and shall be." Remius wrote back.

"Remius, farwell, but remember you are no longer mortal," an lone member of the Eternal council stated to remind Remius.

"I will remember." Remius wrote back.
He continued to work on setting the colony up to work well with nature and technology.

Priests began to arrvie to give servie to the dead heroes orf the war as well as more settlers were arriving every day of the year.

Remius was hard at work, keeping up with the settlers and the growing society, thought he was hard-pressed at times.

The settlers continued to come and build up the society, but a group of priests began to take some of the work of Remius to lower his work load.

Remius still pushed himself as hard he'd been doing. Even with the priests taking work, he continued to work as hard as he could. He was doing everything he could to give the settlers a good life.

The settlers flow began to slow down as the planet had all ready recevived many so that now they came only every two weeks.

As the flow of settlers tapered off, Remius managed to get on top of his work and actually ahead of it.

The Eternal Council meanwhile sen an decree for the planet to Remius:
"The 100 strongest of you upon this planet every year shall be sent to the Eternals to become warriors of the Etermals. Blessed are the children of the Eternals."

"Do you wish for the strongest of mind, will, faith, or body?" Remius sent back.

The Eternal Council responded," We wish for all these traits in them. As only the faithful, wise, and strong may servant us effectively."

"Then I shall endevor to find those with the qualities you wish." Remius replied

The Eternal Council responded," Very well, then Remius may the task be completed well. Also the Eternals wish to summon you to the Eternal homeworld for a short period of time as a gift for yuor oustanding services, but you will be allowed to chose to stay there forever or return to this world."

Remius set to work, organising a tournament, to weed out the hundred best so they could be trained as warriors for the Eternals.

A thousand of the strongest, wisest, and most faithful people on the planet entered the tournament. There after applying the awaited further instrution to procced.

Remius organised the tests.
There were tests of strength and stamina, tests of problem-solving and philosophy(sp), tests of piety and theology, and tests of endurance and will-power.
The hundred with the highest scores were inducted into the Warriors, and sent to the Monastery to train.

The candidates worked well on the test, but yet though many did well on the test 140 stood out. Though 40 of them were weaker then the other 100 they were wiser and had more piety then the others. The other 100 scored extremly well on all of the tests.

The fourty were sent to become Priests of the Eternal faith, rather than Warriors.

The Eternal Council responded:
"Thank you for you well done efforts now we wish to extend an offer to you to come to the home world of the Eternals do you wish to go?"

"I would be interesting in seeing the world of the Eternals." Remius wrote back.

The Eternal Council answered," Then you shall be carried there by the transportation syestem."

A beam of light carried Remius off to the ancient home world of the Eternals until he arrivied. An world of lush green fields as long as the eye could see. Trees of emerald leaves and gem flowers. Fruits that were pure and tasteful beyond anything else known to the universe. Moutains of diamond white peaks. Ground covered as off diamond dust. Buildings made of gold and silver decorated with precious stones. The sun of the syestem giving off an ever warm light that did not burn the flesh or harm the eyes.

Remius began exploring the planet.

The planet held amazjng technological wonders beyond anything that Remius had encontered before. The world was full of flying creature that seemed like angesl, but were acutally Eternals.

He continued to explore the world.

Remius was encountered by an Eternal who said," Welcome Remius of Theao to the Eternal home world."

"It is enlightening to be here." Remius replied

The Eternal answered," Yes, this world reveals many things to all."

"If you don't mind me asking, how old is the Eternal race?" Remius asked

"Over eight billion years old in the reckonoing of the younger races," responded the Eternal.

bump

"Alright." Remius replied

"That at least is the founding of oru civilization," the Eternal continued.

"What of other ancient races?" Remius asked

"The Ascendants are the only known named race older than us," the Etrernal repiled.

"How old are the Ascendants, and what of races of equal or slightly younger age?" Remius asked

The Eternal responded," The Ascendants are a few hundred million years shy of nine billion years old and currently we are the oldest beings by far in this plane of existence."

"Are you sure about that or is are you the oldest race in your data-banks?" Remius asked

"I never said we were the oldest ever to tell we know that there were beings in existence before the universe began," the Eternal answered.

"Alright." Remius replied, lapsing into silence.

The Eternal then said," Our creater the Highest as we like to call him we believe is an ancient Eternal from off world how was there before the universe was made."

"How was he around before the universe?" Remius asked

"He was energy before the uniiverse began and he took shape after it's creation as an ancient Eternal, but he is a God whom later created us upon this world and to us he is our Lord and God," the Eternal replied.

"Alright." Remius replied

The Eternal then said," Your time on this planet is ending soon you shall leave unless you decide to live on this plnaet forever what say you?"

"What would happen if I chose to remain here?" Remius asked

"You will be accounted as one of the Eternals and you will be removed from the troubles and hardsips of your life and the rest of the universe to lvie here in Eternal bliss," the Eternal answered.

"So I would cease to serve as a Warrior of the Eternals?" Remius asked

"That us up to you as if you decide to lvie you here you may go to war with the Eternals," the Eternal said.

"Would I be bound to this world?" He asked

"No, you may depart whenever you like, but when you die you shall be reborn here in your orginal form eventually," the Eternal replied.

"Was I not granted immortality?" Remius asked

"Yes, to live forever unharmed by age or diease, but now you can truly live forever," the Eternal responded.

"Could you explain please?" Remius asked

"Your immorality made you stronger and smarter then other mortals as well as being immune to aging and all diseases, but you could be slain forever in battle. Yet as being counted as an Eternal you will be able to be reincarnated reborn fully," the Eternal responded.

"And what is the cost of being counted among the Eternals?" Remius asked

'There is no cost excpet accepting the Eldest One of the Eternal race as your leader," said the Eternal in response.

"I shall make my desicion shortly." Remius replied

ooc: I thought Eternals couldn't directly interfere?

OOC: Hmmm.... the point you have seen is something I did not predict into my post good point, but the Eternals who encourage the faith of the Eternals are the only ones not allowed to directly interere save in cases of conquest of younger races the Eldest One can also sanction events being the leader of the Eteransl.

The Eternal shook it's head in agreement and awaited Remius's decision.

Remius pondered the descision as he continued to examine the scenery.

In the air a breeze brought a fragrant wind and an ancient beautiful and glorious sony in the Eternal tongue upon it's breath.

bump

"What is that music?" Remius asked

ooc: Would have replied earlier, was sleeping thought

OOC: It is cool.

"That is an song that is song in the tongue of the Eternals," asnwered the Eternal.

"What is it about?" Remius asked

"It is about the golden age of the Eternals that ended a billion years ago," the Eternal replied.

"Ah." Remius replied

"The time of the Eternals shall so come again and hte fufillment of the ancient prophecy of the Eldest One! Remius of Theao what is your answer,?" the Eternal said in a mighty voice.

OOC: Or you could this conversation topic.

"The timw of the golden age was when our arts, language, technologies, and skills were perfected and our happiness and bliss at it's pinnacle, sadly though our technologoy grows ever in andvancement our bliss has been greatly lowered," the Eternal contiuned.

"I shall accept your offer." Remius replied

The Eternal then said," Go now and homage to the Eldest One as your leader and it shall be completed."

OOC: Feel free to walk or teleport there.

"Alright." Remius replied, as he used the teleportation system to arrive outside the 'Elders' domicile.

The building was decorated in writings of the most ancient Eternal dialect. Unkown jewels decorated. The walls were made of pure gold. Guards dressed in grand shining Eternal metals surronded the pathway to the pathway. Two grand Eternal lords came up to Remius and said," Welcome Remius follow us to the hall of the Eternals."

bumpa bumpa bumpa

OOC: Sorry, just looked at my regular clock it time for me to go to sleep as it is a week night.

Remius bowed with his head as he followed the Guards.

ooc: Sorry about missing the thread earlier

OOC: Man you must be pyshic because they were guards if the Eldest One, I did not mention that whoa. just joiking

The Guards led him into the chamber of the Eternals and there sitting upon the diamond, Eternite, silver throne was the Eldest One who said in an mighty gloroious voice," Remius you have proven yourself worthy to be counted amongst the Eternals and for that I grant you Eternal life. Do you accept me as your leader and that you to be counted by yourself and others as an Eternal now?"

"Yes I do." Remius replied as he bowed.

The Eldest On waved his hand and Remius was lifted to the sun of the Eternal syestem and there went into it directly and was not burned and he was returned very quickly to the Eternal world and then the Eldest One lowered his hand and many small objects fused themselves with Remius and a great aphere of light also fused with Remius and there he was given the lief of an Eternal and the power of an young Eternal.

Remius bowed again to the Eldest One. "Thank you." He said

The Eldest looked down at Remius then he rose up and said," Let all now recgnoize that Remius oof Theao is an Eternal now. What shall be your name now that you are an Eternal and shall be known as from now on?"

OOC: I am tired so I am going to sleep, goodnight.

"I shall retain the name I have, the name of Remius Emanuel Miron," Remius replied

The Eldest One then said," Very well then you shall retain your current name, but now since you are an Eternal you shall be called as Lord Remius by the younger races of the universe."

"Alright." Remius replied

"Remis you are an accomplished warrior and stragetist would you wish to become an captain of the Eternals?"

"What would be involved?" Remius asked

"You would be given command of true Eternal ships as well as the command of actual Eternals."

"Then I accept the honour." Remius replied

The Eldest One then said," You are now dismissed. My the Highest One grant you his blessings."

Remius bowed and left.

ooc: Remius in the oblivion thread?

OOC:Not your guy his real name is Reminar, but Remuis is alright to be used as his short or nickname because it is easier to spell and rember for others.

ooc: Knew it wouldn't be This Remius, but still ... :)

OOC: I like Roman history as well thinking aobut the founder of Rome Remius and your guy helped to chose that name for my guy on that thread.

The Eternals notcing Remius was now an Eternal went into their true angelic like forms.

Remius was impressed, and wondered what the extents of his own, new abilities were.

An Eternal said to Remius," You wish to transfrom into the true form of Eternals you may if you wish to."

"How would I do so?" Remius asked

"Concetrate and then will it and it shall be done," answered the Eternal

"Alright." Remius said as he concentrated.

OOC: Pardon me for posting for your guy's transformation.

Remius body slowly turned in a brillant shining white that conusmed his body until it was covered entriely and there he grew great white wings of the same white and all that remained of his orginal body was his mind and a unsacred time or wound version of his face.

Remius partially freaked.

The Eternal laughed slightly and then said," It is alirght you are entirely new to this. Also you still have to learn the Eternal language and writing syestem that may take you a few mortal centuries."

Still edgy, "Then I'd better get started, same proceedure to reverse?" He asked

The Eternal said," Sure why not I have to go I have to go to a meeting a trillion light years away and I have to be there is an hour."

"Alright." Remius replied as he concentrated and returned to normal.

An computer that showed the Eternal language both written and spoken laid out in the native tongue of Remius appeared before Remius to learn from it the Eternal tonuge and writing syestem.

Remius throught himself into his studies.

Thousands upon thousands of pages were before Remius in order to understand the Eternal tongue.

Realizing the volume, Remius set up a schedual of fifty minutes study, ten minutes break, and and a four hour sleep every twelve hours.

An Eternal went up to Remius and then said," You realize that the only reason why we ask you to this that way is becuase of tradition and to keep occupied as we could just as eaisly download directly into your mind, but since you are human still mentally that may overload your mind."

"I understand." Remius replied as he poured over grammatical syntex.

The Eternal bidded him farwell and departed. The untold pages of text were extremly clear and easy to remember.

Remius continued to pour throught the texts, sticking to his schedual.

An Eternal warrior regiment in full armrs went pass Remius to report in for miltary pratice.

Remius decided to take a break to watch practice and see whether he had a assigned role in it.

The unseathed theur blades of pure energy and praticed figthing each other with them. Then they praticed froming formations and formiong up. Also they gave an limited performance of them summoining different elements of the universe to their aide in battle to be deflected by the another one.

Remius observed the practice with interest.

The continued to train for another hlaf of hour then they disperesed and left.

Remius returned to his studies.

Page upon page of text went by Remius's eyes giving him an ever greater knowledge of the Eternal language.

OOC: Goodnight. I am going to sleep now.

Once he'd gotten the basics of the written language, he went on to tackle the spoken language.

The spoken language was more complex then the written language for there were literally millions of words in the Eternal tonuge that descired everything in the universe.

bump

He started work on it.

The text was easy to absorb and by the right person can be done quickly.

Remius worked on both parts of the language with equal dilligence.

Then at last Remius mastered the ancient Eternal tongue that predated humans by billions of years.

Having mastered the language, Remius decided to explore and find someone who taught other Eternals.

One Eternal said to Remius," What yet does an Eternal teach, but if not themself?"

OOC: Goodnight, last post for me tonight.

"Could you teach what they are and how me to use the abilities of the Eternal?" Remius asked

"You must first harness your own mental abilties gained by being an Eternal. Then I will teach you more," answered the Eternal.

"Could you teach me to master those?" Remius asked

"You first most master your own mind," the Eternal answered.

"And how do you do that?" Remius asked

"Simply by controlling your thoughs and mind," the Eternal responded.

"Alright." Remius said as he began working on the new task.

The Eternal departed, but was acutally awaiting ofr Remius to accoplishe this new task.

Remius managed to master the challenge after a period.

The Eternal then returned and said," Good, you wished to know about the Eternals?"

"Yes." Remius replied

"What is do you wish to know?" the Eternal asked.

"Everything about the Eternals and the abilities." Remius replied

"To tell you everything about the Eternals would take untold years, but the Eternals abitities are powerful beyond the measure of mortals."

"Then could you give me the broad outlines?" Remius asked

"The Eternals control the basic matter of the universe. They can alter the fabric of space to create dimensional openings. These are only a few of the powers of the Eternals."

"Could you teach me to master the powers?" Remius asked

OOC: Sorry about the long break this needed a little break from this thread.

The Eternal answered," You must first concreate upon the task you wish to accoplish and then will that it be done."

bump

bump

OOC: Sorry about the long break this needed a little break from this thread.

The Eternal answered," You must first concreate upon the task you wish to accoplish and then will that it be done."
Remius concentrated on something simple and willed it to happen.

ooc: sorry about that

An object began to materlize from the matter of the world to create what he desired.

As he realized what was happening, he stopped concentrating.

The marerial just turned into a ball and hovered awaiting for his command to form into something. The Eternal then suggested," Maybe you should try creating a gold statue."

"Why a gold statue?" Remius asked

The Eternal responded," Because it is a simple task and mortals, though you are an Eternals now, always seemed to want to transform something into gold. As for the statue we Eternals pride ourselves in our crafts."

"Any suggestions on what it should be?" He asked

The Eteranl replied," Why not an eagle to start with."

"Symbolic, representative or direct?" Remius asked

The Etenral responded," Direct will do for now."

Remius returned to focusing, visualizing a life like representation of an eagle.

The Eternal noticed the work and said," Good, good it is coming along finely and should be done soon."

He managed to finish his attempt.

The Eternal congrualted him," Good now you understand how to use your powers. Now conjure a fire ball."

Remius works on trying to make a ball of fire the size of a ping-pong ball.

The Eternal advised him," Now increase the size of the fireball to that of a small boulder."

"Please define the size of a small boulder." Remius asked

"A boulder that is five by six meters," answered the Eternal.

Remius concentrated, expanding the ball to the requested size.

The Eternal then directed," Noe fire the fireball over up into the sky then explode it at a kilometer high."
