It was mid-afternoon; the sun shone through the forest foliage and clouds hung like ornaments in the sky. A pod of Caelum ceti flew overhead. A couple of youngsters played around the elders, weaving and curling, playing a game of tag. Meanwhile the adults sang songs to each other.

On the land the forest engulfed the soft rhythmic thump-thump-thump hoofbeats of a large horse on the forest floor. The emerald forest and rich brown earth smelt like home. Soft scents of flowers and herbs swirled with the softer furry smell of wildlife like squirrels and deer. Birds chattered and chirruped in the trees and out of the darkness a pair of eyes watched an out of the ordinary bright green wagon bump and bounce past. In the driver's seat sat a gypsy woman with dark curly hair, she chattered on about the story of Ozymandias.

A couple of conversation progressions later and Ada was explaining the works of Magic to Fritz

"You see Fritz the difference between Magic and Alchemy is: you have to be born with magic to perform magic. Philosophers have tried to discover why some are born with magic and other's aren't but there appears to be no pattern. Being born with magic is like being born with a 6th sense, you can detect things the 5 senses can't and you have the ability to change the world around you by use of magic words and if you're powerful enough a mage: by the power of your mind. I once met a mage so powerful he could cast spells in his sleep. Once he caused an inn to flood because in his dream he was fishing. Fritz, come sit here next to me. I don't know what you're doing back there and I don't trust the fact I don't know.
"Thank you, now where was I?"
"Magic and alchemy"
"Ah, yes! No, Yes! No! Oh whatever yes, alchemy. Alchemy is something most people can do, but it's not well-known. Alchemy is magic used by those born with non-magic blood. And what makes it mostly different is the fact that you need energy to cast alchemy. The law of equivalent exchange some have called it. For example: if you were to cast an alchemy spell to pick up a stone and drop it a meter away from you, it would take the same amount of energy to physically pick up the rock and move it. There's a book in the Jairo library of an alchemist who stored energy from himself and others in gems and drew upon that during battle.
"Alchemy also can be cast with runes or spells, runes are more popular than spoken words because rune spells can be reversed or cut short. If you were to cast a rune to make a tree grow and once the tree reached the desired height and you broke a line of the rune, the tree would stop growing. With words, the tree would keep growing until you told it to stop or you gave the specific order of a height to grow to. For example watch this."

Ada looked around until she found a pretty purple and blue sparkly gem in the wagon. PIcking it up she cast the spell "calculi, inveniemus postea , ab hac levitate usque ad quercum sentis , stillabunt in manu mea" "I told this pebble to levitate until we pass that thorn tree on the right" Ada said to Fritz. Obediently the pebble floated into the air and hung above Ada's hand until they passed the tree upon which it dropped into her hand again.

Aright, over the three day trip to Haneul our characters are basically travelling along the main road. Sharing tales, reading scrolls etc.

Our first encounter will be with a group of merchants that try scamming Ada.



Lost my post, dammit

For your active, I'll need some damage to work with and a mana cost would be good too. I'd recommend maybe 5 damage for each spear and maybe 5 mana cost each?Also, the starting health and mana pools for each champion is 50 for health and 100 for mana unless your passive has something to do with itFor the defence buff I'd recommend about 5 damage reduction to start with as well as some status effect resistances


Could I make larger spears more draining in mana but inflict more damage eg. 10 damage for 8 mana, 13 damage for 10 mana?

When the sun rose Duplo woke Ada before she changed form. Just as the sun began to peek it's first rays into the sky Duplo helped Ada carry Kirin into the wagon where she was tucked safely into a sleeping bag and cushioned by many of the wagon's blankets so the jolting would not wake her. As the last blanket was tucked in the first ray of morning came out and struck the forest around them. Duplo turned to face the sun, her porcelain mask reflecting the bright sunlight and she began to glow. It was a mesmerising process, first she grew a light coat of fur, then her limbs shrank. Followed by the face morphing and at last her torso shrank. When finished and the sun god light up the sky in a blaze of gold and a fluffy teddy bear lay slightly leaning to the left in Ada's wagon. Ada sat there wondering what to do, usually she just left toy-Duplo in the back of the wagon, instead she tucked the toy into Kirin's arms. That would annoy Duplo.

That day Duplo dreamt a dream she had for the up tenth time. She sat wrapped in a warm blanket on a patio overlooking a dam surrounded by forest. Before her a bed of coals glowed calmly. Then behind her a screech echoed, and the dream ended.

Ada woke Fritz and helped him shuffle groggily over to the wagon where he settled semi-concious inside the wagon. She retrieved Willow and harnessed him up, he shook out his mane ready for the days work. Fully buckled, Ada checked Willow to make sure all his straps were comfortable. With a sigh she unclipped the breaks of the wagon and closed all the doors. She led Willow out the camp as quietly as possible for a large noisy wagon. On her way out she caught sight of Fimion asleep in his tent, the stubble on his chin made him rather attractive and asleep he looked peaceful. Ada bit her lip against a welling of sudden guilt.

Ada walked alongside Willow towards the road, her mind flicked to Aegar for a while, trying to figure him out. Oh well, move on Ada. You have other things to focus on she reasoned with herself. "Let's just get to Haneul and restock, then off to Eira. No distractions" she smiled lightly to herself and put her hand on Willow's warm neck. What am I to do about Kirin, I hope what she says is true and she does have a relative in Haneul, if not. I can't bring her with me, I'm too dangerous to care for a child like her. But she would prove useful, she could look after Willow. But what if she gets scared or he gets spooked and rns off, no. Rather not.

Back on the main road Ada hopped nimbly into the driver's seat and took out the book she found yesterday from under the seat and began to read to pass the time. In a short while the birds would wake and so would the children, maybe she could make something for breakfast?

Shall Aegar accompany Ada and the crew, and would Fimion like to tag along? If so, does he have his own horse?

Balth - good luck finding a new and much better job! Work is such a pain in the ass situation - especially finding one :s What was it that made you resign? N what kinda stuff are you looking for?


Glad to see this rp aint outta sight and outta mind. I quit because I no longer enjoyed working there and because of that I had no motivation to do anything - pissing off my boss immensly and eventually she had enough and lost it, and I resigned the next week.

You are part a cave explorer - a nomad, part of my squad or part of the opposition.

Some very ancient caves have recently been discovered slightly inland of the coast of South African dessert.

Your mission is too discover as much as you can about this cave before the opposition does.

Not looking for anything too busy as finals are around the corner for myself and Christmas is on the way.
