Currently @notdeadyet will be making one more post then stepping out of the rp (hopefully not forever), @GreenHood and @FinnIsh are, let us just say mia? I haven't heard from either of them, so for now the story will continue without them. If they decide to come back, sure. If not, we tried.
I completely understand that people are busy. I'm a beach/pool bum myself and would rather spend my time outside then glued to my computer or phone. I do work, and while work has it's slow times where I can be around, I may not always be able to post. My hobbies include writing, hence why i'm here :) We are a fairly active crew and the story is coming along quite smoothly so far, so if you can't post for whatever reason, don't hesitate to send me a pm. I do try to be fair and patient.
Maria owned a shop in town, not far from the Ugly Mug, called 'Maria's Medicines and Sundries'. When we started our story, Maria had a few patients/customers earlier in the day and then Edict stormed in with Xusin, Tirarrian, and Cassius. Xusin had a wounded hand, badly wounded or not, Edict demanded that Maria fix it. Cassius was badly wounded though stepped to the side and waited his turn, despite his injury being ignored most of the time he was there. With all the commotion and the rudeness directed at her and her shop, Maria snapped. Without any regard for her clients or herself for that matter, she whipped out her spell book and healed Xusin's hand. Edict, having an extreme distrust/dislike for magic, drew his sword to her throat and the situation only escalated from there.
Joseph and Piper were on their way to the docks with their new found friend Jason, who thinks Joseph is a legendary hero named Sir Joffridus, however, after realizing that they've been followed by Isabeau, they've hid in an alley way just near Maria's shop. Isabeau confronted the trio in the alley and things only got stranger from there.
Just as they all started to settle down inside the medical shop, Xusin felt/saw a presence of someone - Aezophyl a demon who was sent here by Zargon. She stormed out of the shop in a fury to confront her fear. In an effort to 'burn off some steam' Aezophyl ... made someone go on fire. In a panic and fright, the burning man ran right into the wall of the healers shop. But he wasn't dead.
Rising back up, the charred, still burning skeleton rose back up and started stumbling, causing everyone on the street to flee and in a matter of minutes, bells of alarm to sound. It clumsily scratched at the shop's door even as it set the said door on fire. Between this and the fleeing Xusin, everyone rushed out of the building. Edict rushed the burning skeleton with his sword then caught up with Xusin. Maria had had it. She was accosted by someone who demanded her services, then left without paying, her door was burned down, there was a strange incident of a burning skeleton outside her shop. She ran out of the shop yelling and chasing them, demanding payment. Aezophyl had made his way into the Ugly Mug, and within minutes, more trouble had brewed, sparking the tavern into flames. As he walked out, Xusin, Edict, Cassius and Tirarrian where there to face him. Following Aezophyl out were tons and tons and tons of burning skeletons, minions set forth to cause more destruction and chaos to the town. Cassius attacked first as he lunged at Aezophyl with a few moves that were unfortunately deflected. Though it did give Edict enough time to launch his attack. Tirarrian had settled somewhere and set up her crossbow with a pouch that Edict had given her. Unfortunately she had become overrun by skeletons, but her shot did go off and was extremely successful as it hit the tavern and had taken out the fire that was burning inside.
Piper, Joseph, Jason and Isabeau left the alley way just in time to see the battle unfold. Isabeau went to save Tirarrian from the flaming skeletons, as did Tobias, who had also just arrived on the scene. Katia, Tobias's adopted daughter was busy chopping up skeletons along with the guards. Both Tobias and Isabeau had told Tirarrian that it wasn't safe for her to set up where she was (in so many words :p) so as we enter the story currently, Joseph had dragged Jason and Piper away from the fighting, Tirarrian went to join them. Isabeau went to help Edict and Cassius and whoeverelse is with them, who are currently engaging Aezophyl.

@ArenaSnow okie dokies
on another note, my goodness, how many views/clicks do I need for the stupid egg to hatch?! lol
By the way, I'm probably going to post a lot less in the IC until the encounter is over. This is not because I'm busy! I'm still uber attentive and loving the stuff that's going on! It's because Tirarrian is far less important to the fight than other people. She uses poisons a lot, which have very little effect on skeletons, let alone flaming skeletons.
Still gonna be reading you're stuff, especially new guys @Dragoknighte and @Diabolic
Ah the weakspot of rogues, nonliving foes. Maybe Tirarrian should invest in something like powerful acid that can damage nonliving beings like skeletons, golems and such after this.
