[IC] Grayfall Guild: Now Hiring!

[LissaLu]

Lilith wanted to say that it had nothing to do with magic, it just had to do with knowing what was and wasn't flammable, but she was afraid shed hurt the nymph's feelings or confuse her, so she decided to stay quiet. The little witch then wandered over to the table where she set her tea and took a sip; it was lukewarm now.

"Well, rats...barley tea really does taste better cold." she paused, kicking her feet, "I'm thinking I should invest in getting a familiar."

[Thistle]

Clover watched the witch, and mimicked her actions. This...tea thing wasn't half bad.

"A familiar? Is that one of those...animal companions?"

[llama513]

"I can help make you're tea colder, I think if I can pull of that rite again its been a while." *Sarrai'a said as she pulled out a old leather bound book that she started flipping through looking for the symbols she needs to visualize to perform the rite needed*

[LissaLu]

"Yeah, you know...like a cat or an owl, or maybe a snake." Lilith replied. "But they cost a lot of money to summon, and this guild hasn't exactly been bringing in the cash for a long while, so that dream is going to take a while."

She sighed, tapping her mug and gazing at the skull on the table. He'd surely be surprised when he woke up.

Lilith's ears perked up when she heard Saarai'a's comment, and she spun around to face her with glittering eyes that held a childish wonder.

"Can you do that? That's so cool!" she gushed before realizing her rudeness in not offering a Saarai'a a drink as well.

"Hold on, let me go fetch you one so we can all be refreshed!" Lilith cheered before darting into the kitchen.

[llama513]

*Sarrai'a paused to think for a moment as to what to use to help chill the drink as her claws would be less dangerous, but her hybrid form might frighten her new pack, but her short sword could lead to more damage, but would be easier to chill multiple glasses on, with that in mind she unsheathed her short sword and placed it on the table before placing the cup on the sword and slicing her thumb on the sword which formed ruins and frosted over giving of a cold mist* "That should chill the tea quite nicely."

[LissaLu]

Lilith returned from the kitchen with a piping hot mug of tea in her hand, only to see a thin veil of ice had formed over her drink.

"Well, that certainly cooled it alright..."

[llama513]

"Sorry about that, this rite is meant for combat so it doesn't really have a mild setting, or if there is one I am not sure how to use it." *The cut on her thumb remaining quite open and giving off a similar glow to the sword*

[LissaLu]

"Hm." Lilith paused, cupping her chin, "perhaps you should just drink this hot."

[llama513]

"Perhaps so, well I guess the rite was worth a shot." *She slid her thumb along the blade of the short sword as she did so the glow stopped and the ruins flowed back to her thumb and when she pulled her thumb away the cut had closed*

[LissaLu]

Lilith's eyes went wide when she saw the wound close on it's own, she sure was making friends with people with strange magic. It was strange, though...she sure didn't look like a cleric or paladin.

"Are you a healer?" Lilith asked innocently.

[llama513]

*Sarrai'a smiled knowing that her order is not commonly know of* "Beyond a basic understanding of medicinal plants not really, the order that I was part of previously were a group of demon hunters that called ourselves blood hunters. My practice of blood magic is rudimentary but it is enough to create the rite you just saw, as well as a rite of fire. The closest thing to healing I can do is force poisons out of a person's blood but the process is not exactly painless as I have to magically force the poison out versus simply neutralizing it."

[Thistle]

Clover watched in awe as the woman closed her own wound. This wolf-kin was powerful! But the real question brewing in her mind...

"What did happen to your finger that caused such a deep cut...?"

[llama513]

"I cut myself on my sword, I have to have access to my blood to perform my rites, and due to the magic infused within my blood the cuts I inflict on myself are often deeper then would normally occur."

[Myyt]

Blood magic spilled through the air and the overpowering stench of magic (discernible only to Artorius) roused him from his slumber. His eyes burned like coals once again and the skull began to chatter within the confines of Lilith's robes.

"I SMELL POWERFUL MAGICS!" The muffled voice rang out from behind a layer or two of fabric, "LILITH LET ME HAVE A LOOK AT THIS NEWCOMER!"

[llama513]

*Sarrai'a jumped back, ready to pounce as a voice came from a location with no scent attached to it*

[Thistle]

With a leap that could have sent her into the branches of a tree, Clover looked with wide eyes at the small witch.

"I thought you said that you did not have a familiar! What is in your robes??"

[LissaLu]

"Yes, boss!" Lilith replied, releasing him on command. She was real happy that he was awake now that he could see what a good job she had done when it came to recruiting new members today.

[llama513]

*Sarrai'a shook her head in suprise at hearing Lilith call this voice boss, whom ever this voice was coming from they must be quite a warrior to hold a position higher then the last surviving member of Grayfall and then noticing the skull that came from with in Lilith's robes paused in curiosity* "Lilith, does this skull truly hold higher sway within Grayfall."

[Thistle]

Now convinced that Lilith was a better witch than she gave herself credit for, Clover took a few steps closer. Not only did she control that which killed forests, she could bring death back to life! What powerful magic!

[LissaLu]

"Well, kinda?" Liith replied, placing Artorius on the table. "He's like an administrator, I guess? Anyway, he's been here a lot longer that I have, and I wasn't very high up the pecking order initially."
