[IC] Terecoth: Monster Hunters

[nookzer]

Alexander looked at the paper then and at Ash he simply nodded at him and signed his name on the line he took a step back and walked over to the corner and the proceeded to look over the people in the the room checking who left and who stayed to his surprise he saw the abnormal was still here despite the fact he looked spooked.

Cecelia grabs some paper from within the Guild and a pen in her cloak. She writes as she watches people sign. She sees the elf who looked closest to whom she saw in the shadows earlier. Writing quickly, she leaves the note in the path he seemed to take as he walked from the Guild's front. She left it at eye level and wrote solely in Elvish script, so only those who spoke the language could understand. It read as follows.

"To my Brethren in the Shadows,
Fear not so much. You are of a higher life than these Humans. You are not the only Elf here, nor are you alone. If you wish to meet, assuming it would calm you down, I will leave directions to where I will stay this night. We shall need to do more than hide to take down monsters, and I wish to have at least one Brethren alongside me, so I will assist you if you wish and need.
Maljelir"
Inside a fold in the paper lies a direction list (all in elvish still).

Vulcarion watched as they all lined up and signed there name and as a few men left. He never judged them, he understood, just as any profession, it's not for all.
Vulcarion said his goodbyes to the elves and the abnormal he had met. He leaned down into the abnormals ear "do not fear my friend when you look around. These are brutes and warriors, they may beat you with a sword and shield but when it comes to the Hunters, intellect can be your greatest strength" he leaned up and smiled. He felt a pit in his gut for only giving a tongue of advise to one but the others seemed as though they had seen their share of combat. He shall see at dawn. He had the honor of speaking to the ones who have passed and addressing them on their duties to the guild and where they will rest at night.

Kael looked to Vulcarion when he whispered to him with a raised eyebrow. he knew what Vulcarion said was true, in terms of weapons he wasn't as skilled as others, but he did have his intelligence... and his magic. he chuckles and looks to his book then he grins "time to do some research" he says the leaves looking around the city. to study some of the sights, and to see if he could find other places with books he could buy and/or read. before finding somewhere to retire for the day.

Amaranta was outside the Guild, leaning against the wall with her arms crossed. She had just returned from a job, wich was just killing a lizard, and was about to report the mission was succesfuly finshed but when she saw so much people she prefered to stay outside and wait.
New members I guess...
She thought and a few seconds later those who decided not to join left the Guild, passing next to her, Amaranta quickly examinated each one of them from toes to head as they passed without saying a word.
Once they all left Amaranta walked inside, the first person she saw was Vulcarion, she walked next to him.

It seems not many decided to join. What a pitty...

Zymeni paused before he entered the inn. His hand gripped the sheet of paper, the words written in Elvish. He had only just noticed it and had snatched it up before anyone saw but he decided to read it when there were less people from the Guild around. As he hitched Vioarr and entered the tavern he asked for ale and stew. As he received his request he pulled out the paper and read it.

Zy gulped. The elven lady wanted to meet with him. She said he was a brethren. She mustn't know I'm only half-elf he thought. He still decided to meet her though. He had never met a full elf other than his mother before. As he finished his stew he paid and got up. Leaving the horse behind he left the tavern and walked the dark streets. The sky above was dark and he relied mostly on the directions given rather than his own eyes. Eventually he arrived at the location. A large house, opulent and magnificent. Nervous he knocked on the door, a caution hand on his whip.

Vulcarion watched as Amaranta walked over to him. "Evening" He said to her as she approached. He looked around as everyone filed out of the hall for the night. "will be a long day tomorrow. What do you think of them?" He said gesturing with his eyes at all the new people who were leaving the hall. he looked up at her before she answered "Speak with me tomorrow at the gathering after the tests? I am sure that they would love to know what life is like in the Guild" He said with a soft smile.

Cecelia opened the door, dressed in a more casual set of clothes. Having had a moment of caution while opening the door, she relaxed when it was the previously hiding Elf. "Greetings. So you are the One hiding in Shadows," Cecelia greeted, feeling relieved that he'd shown rather than made her wonder all night about his arrival, "I'm glad to meed the one who seems to be the best at hiding. Please, come in." Making a sweeping motion to the inside of the house, Cecelia smiled at her guest.

Amaranta was just about to give her opinion about the new members but got interrupted as soon as she opened her mouth and listened to what Vulcarion said
Eh~? Is it just me or you are actually happy to have new members? It's been long since I saw you smile like that~
Amaranta asked Vulcarion with a bit of curosity and a teasing smile, she always belived he was a cold man.
You were quite mean to me when I joined...Why do you act so friendly with them? She said just to see how Vulcarion would react

[olcharlieboi]

Kael would be sitting in a tree somewhere in the city where there is some nature. He would be looking at a small book he bought reading, the book named 'Smithing of Blades'. He was studying the ins and outs of some weapons to find any normal fault in using some. So he can use this knowledge to his advantage when in a fight and create openings that could allow himself to come victorious. He would look to his hand and concentrate speaking an ancient tongue that none others know, Elves, Humans, and so on. for his spell book unknown to him was one made by his own people that was lost before he recovered it. in English he would be saying "May nature bless my tools, may it bring me victory by bringing me what i desire, an object of small nature that can bring forth harm to those who go against me, come to me!" energy would emerge from both the tree his on and his own hand, as it forms into a small dagger blade, of black metal.

Half a day's away a man would be traveling, heading to Drovia. A man well known in the guild but he has been away for a while dealing with problems his been assigned. He would be carrying a big sack... with some red areas dried into the sack, anyone with a normal head would know what that red is. But no one on the road ever pays any attention to him. at rate he is going, he would arrive in Drovia by Mid way into the test.

"You have to understand when you joined we were not desperate for new hunters. We still had the council, I was not fond of people who joined." Vulcarion said quickly. "Ive grown to accept that we are not alone, now more than ever we need new people and I shall make them feel at home" He said and nudged her "You should too. The woman joining the hunters need another woman to show them that power can too be obtained by them." He said with a smile and walked off

[nookzer]

Alexander decided that it was time to return home so he quickly got up and left while heading to his home he began to think about tomorrow what kind of test would he have to take it was slightly worrying he doubted it was going to be easy and he began to run through different scenarios in his head he had been so preoccupied he had walked into the wall of his house "my nose!" he groaned to himself before entering his house where began making something to eat.

[Crazy Doctor]

Zy entered nervously. He raked his mind trying to remember the proper greetings for elves but his mind drew a blank. "Hello. Er thank you for inviting me." As he entered he gasped at the luxury of the place but also how everything was made out of wood, beautifully made and carved. It made him feel like he was inside a tree, part of a tree in fact. He turned and spoke to Celia, "This place is beautiful. You're very well off my lady." His hand released the grip of his whip and turned to bow. The lessons from his mother rang in his ear.

[Rogue Colm]

Smiling warmly in hopes to dispell any nervousness, Cecelia responded to his talk of wealth. Yes, I suppose. Scouting was merely one use of the art of Stealth I used. It's not all that important though. Why did you hide yourself in the shadows so easily? Society won't throw us back to the Woods, so there's no need to be afraid. Cecelia talked as she led them to a dining room, with plates of food readied. "I do tend to cook when I can though"

@Crazy Doctor

[Crazy Doctor]

Zy's eyes opened at the food, being from a poor village he didn't often see such a large amount of food. He shook his head and refocused on the Elven lady. "I don't think I would be allowed in the Woods." His words were cryptic but he didn't elaborate. He continued answering her questions. "I hide because over the past couple of years its been my nature to hide. It protects me. What about you? Why did you come here?"

(Sense Madly gave me the go ahead, IMPORTANT POST)

The next day would soon arrive, the new soon to be hunters would all be arriving back at the guild hall. Older members will guide them into a room with tables and chairs. papers upside down on the tables. The head master would be standing in front of the room "Welcome!" he says "Our first test of the day will be a simple one.. to test your most basic knowledge" he states to everyone "as well as other things, now please find a seat and wait until the sound of the bell before you begin" he says, "Other guild members will be here to watch over the proceedings, after this test everyone is together outside at the training ring" he states

Kael would be surprised at this, unsure what he expected but he didn't expect a written test... he gulped before taking a seat and waited for the bell before he would begin.

[Rogue Colm]

Cecelia sighs as she enters the room and sees papers. Damn. I despise reading and writing. If it's about hunting, I may stand a chance, but I still feel disadvantaged. I shall sit in the back and attempt to use my vision gained from Scouting to... assist me. Hoping she can get this over with without trouble, Cecelia grabs a seat the furthest back she can with a paper on it, ready as she can be to get this over with.

[nookzer]

Next day Alexander came back to the guild hall and saw papers on the tables made sense he guessed not really a good idea to have and idiot hunting beast still wouldn't it be better to have the physical test first? He had even brought his weapon still he sat down and prepared himself he guessed that the exam would be basic knowledge on the beast they would hunt and the most efficient ways to take them down.

[Crazy Doctor]

Zymeni entered the hall and looked at the paper. He chose to sit in the back corner away from most people. The closest person was Celia. Gulping he wondered how he was going to play this. If the exam was written in anything other than Elven he was going to be in major trouble. Praying silently he drummed his fingers nervously next to the paper, his breath coming in short sharp gasps as a small rivulet of sweat formed on his brow.

[olcharlieboi]

Guild members would be in chairs along the walls watching each row of tables for some reason... soon one of the proctors rings a bell stating the test has begun... all the tests would be fairly complex information, some history related, some math related, and some about bestiary. The test would only be 15 questions but over half the test was complex enough some normal people wouldn't have a clue to solve.. but there are more ways than one to answer the question if one can find a way.
