The meat went off the bone pretty fast. With a last bite, his teeth picked off the bone clean.
If this wasn't demon meat, he'd be quite satisfied with the meal. It did taste good, but eating this sort of thing spread corruption in the bodies of normal people. Throwing the bone aside, his ears picked up the sound of quick, hasty and multiple footsteps. The demons below were moving for something. He frowned. What did that orc girl get into?
Sucking off the warm demon fat off his fingers, Adell stood up and readied his sword. He tried to sync his footsteps with the demons', making his way past the 2 dead demon bodies. The footsteps he listened to go louder, but never changed in their beat. And when he saw a group of 3 demons in the midst of some demonic healing magic, he thought the worst.
Though the very fact that the demons still watched out for something must have meant that the girl escaped. It also meant that one of them looked into Adell's direction and roared. And it also meant that the orc girl charged at them, tomahawk in hand.
"Ço҉me a͜t m̛e, yo͞u̡ uģl̸y bas҉t͘a̵rds. ̧I̵'m̶ ͝a f͘or͠m̴er h̷úm͞a̛n,̡ ̕b̸u͡t I'̶ll̵ cut y͘ou͘ ̷all ̡d͟own̷ ̨t͝h̵e͏ ͏sa̡m̸e͠!̛" he threw his arms apart, taunting the demons.
Two of the beasts, the ones that looked relatively uninjured, roared in some mix of demonic language and cursing that Adell barely recognised, lowered their heads towards him, horns pointed at him. And like bulls, they charged, ignoring the girl. She did try to swing her axe at them, but the injuries on her were clearly weakening her. All she did was graze one of them.
With a swift swing, he sidestepped both and swung his blade to decapitate one. The other went down as Adell threw the hand holding his bloodied blade into the demon's chest. Drawing his blade back, he mustered the most evil grin he could, fangs and all. The sort of grin he had when he was torturing the dog demon a while ago.
"D͢òn͞'͡t͞ ͡ki͜l͝l҉ m̶e͏!͢" it screamed, and ran off. Probably to find reinforcements.
Well, it didn't matter. He wanted to get out of here too. And as much as these demons probably outnumbered Widds, they weren't going to march to war without a demonic centurion at their backs. And considering how long they were hiding down here, they didn't have one. Adell would be safe from them outside the catacombs.
And the girl was injured too. He couldn't heal her. Widds had a healer. A healer that was remarkably tolerant of demons, even if the rest of the town wasn't.
"Hey... uh... are you going to not die?" he asked, in awkward Common tainted by his demonic accent. "I'm... Adell. Nice to... meeting you."

Kei's vision of what was going on in the car was obscured by quite a number of things. The sheer violence of Toshiko's driving, and Kei's own fear. Death in a car accident would have been quite an amusing end for a familiar, Kei would have thought, if he wasn't in the middle of this... driver's madness.
His hands grapped around one of the upper side handles of the car, but all he did was rip it off in the turbulence. Dropping face-first onto the car floor, the eerie feeling in his stomach finally acted on the opportunity. His face turned green for a second before hurling up. Whether it was familiar sickness or the chaos of Toshiko's driving, it still did the same thing to the upholstery of the car.
Kei clambered upwards awkwardly, refusing to look anyone else in the eye. He was more embarrassed than angry, and anyone could tell from his blushing face. Kei did try to pull off an angry expression, but the red in his face made a stronger impression in the minds of everyone. He clung onto the the car handle this time, and managed to find a way of handling the madness of Toshiko's driving with angry composure.
"I'm sick," was all he muttered as an curt explanation.

Name: Ser Silvain Valmont
Age: 26 (586 - )
Appearance:
Silvain is about 1.71 metres tall.
Skills:
Swordplay: Silvain has 9 years of sword-fighting experience.
Magic?: Silvain, while technically born with magic, has kept her skills hidden. Her magical power exists, but she doesn't know how to use it beyond creating small flames and making lights.
Tactician: Silvain is generally competent in leading small groups of mercenaries, soldiers or mages.
Brief History: A former knight from the Kingdom of Valois, Silvain was at the front-lines of the wars that characterised the disastrous 'Era of 5 Emperors'. The only daughter of a count who thought that having a knight 'son' would help further his ambitions in the short-lived kingdom of Valois. Silvain, already quite a masculine girl to begin with, was pressed into joining the armies of Valois and fast-tracked to become a knight at the age of 17. She made herself known as a capable tactical commander, but her long-term strategies failed to see Valois through the dark times of the Era of the 5 Emperors.
Valois fell during the time that Emperor Jonathan was in charge (when she was about 20), and Silvain took the opportunity to escape from her father. She took up work as a mercenary, joining the 'Black Iron' company. Without knowing how to act like a lady, she took the only other choice and acted like a man and a soldier. For 6 years, she made herself quite famous even within Black Iron. Her real gender was revealed to some by accident, though just about the entirety of Black Iron members who knew considered her too competent to be sexist against. She partnered with a few mages, some of whom suspected that Silvain had magical talent, but none of them had anything solid to cling onto such beliefs.
When she left the Black Iron on amicable terms, she decided to look to create her own group. And the first person to find would be a mage.
Personality: Silvain's intense and dislikes nonsense. The job, to her, is everything, and she tolerates very little tomfoolery. Though she's actually quite decent to her mage partners, most of them call her a 'fair person, though a slave-driver'. However, when outside of the job, Silvain relaxes and becomes more amicable, friendly and perhaps even a little flirtatious to the girls.
Misc: Silvain likes guys. And girls.
Era of 5 Emperors
Emperor Phillip III (578 - 609 Oct): The last emperor to rule more than 1 year. Phillip III was unable to prevent the many petty kingdoms around him from declaring their independence. When the kingdom of Valois and the kingdom of Capet declared their independence in the year 603, Phillip personally led the armies against them, but to no avail. As more kingdoms declared their independence as well, the Emperor was unable to resolve their rebelliousness, even after 6 years, he was overthrown in a coup by General Francis. Francis then installed himself as Emperor.
Emperor Francis (609 Oct - 610 Jan): Francis tried to change the policies of the empire, allowing mages their own independence in the empire's army rather than subjugating them to a non-magical handler. However, another general by the name of Johann would be outraged by this. He would launch his own coup, and install himself.
Emperor Johann (610 Jan - 610 Jul): Johann reversed the reforms Francis instated. As a compromise with the army commanders that sought more independence, Johann allowed them to decide their own courses of action so long as they vowed to protect the empire. This worked as well as you thought it would. Johann was killed in a palace coup by General Jonathan, one of those army commanders that really lusted for power.
Emperor Jonathan (610 Jul - 611 Jun): Ironically one of the longer lasting emperors, Jonathan was a tyrant to the core. The only thing really keeping Jonathan in power was that despite his own greed, his military skill was without compare. He crushed 3 of the kingdoms (including Valois) and put its people to the sword. He would be assassinated by a palace eunuch by the name of Karl. Karl installed General Guy as emperor. Guy showed his appreciation to Karl by having him executed for treason.
Emperor Guy (611 Jun - 612 Mar): More of an administrator than a commander, Guy managed to politick his way into reuniting some parts of the old empire back. However, his 'peace before war' views did not sit well with some of the generals. General Godwin would act upon these thoughts, killing Emperor Guy and placing himself as Emperor.
Emperor Godwin: (612 Apr -): Taking the throne just a month ago, Godwin has sought the annihilation of all the petty kingdoms. He has reinstituted mages into the Imperial Army, but unlike Emperor Francis, he has subjugated them to tighter leashes.
His utter dedication to war has made the kingdoms fight in a true struggle for their survival, but everything else in Francia has gone to shit. Bandits rule the roads when no armies are marching past. Goblins have become bolder and have begun attacking towns. And there are worse things to fear than Emperor Godwin's wrath.

Brief History:
There wasn't an opportunity for Nagi to show the 'real' picture of herself to anyone, but she figured out that one of them would have to do the explaining at some other point. The nervous girl trying to speak English sort of irritated Nagi, mainly because that it didn't sound like 'proper' English. She threw metaphorical stones even though she never actually spoke English, but she was pretty good at figuring out what people said in English even when her own mastery at it wasn't up to anyone's scratch.
The young man known as Kirijo Yoromatsu carried himself with a different sort of manner, a little something that Nagi appreciated quite immediately with a little smile. If Nami was here, she'd probably ask him for a date or something. The thought of Nami, silently presenting a Valentine's Day card to this young man made Nagi smile. Nami would probably freak out once she realised Nagi had that thought, though.
The third guy, who didn't introduce himself but would later be known to them as Youhei, spoke English. At least, that's what Nagi guessed. It wasn't American, Canadian, British or Australian. Most of the words that came out of his mouth were had their meanings half-guessed by Youhei. It was either that this student spoke in a strange technical part of English she knew nothing about, or his accent needed a boot to the head. His mention of 'fresh meat' pretty much sealed the deal of her impression of him. Informality was a core part of this male member of the dorm.
When the girls were left at the third floor, Nagi managed to take a good look at them. The girl that would later be called Hitomi, seemed more comfortable in the dark shadows of the dormitory corners rather than out in the open. The PSP she carried definitely made her a gamer in anyone's eyes, though Nagi thought the more correct term for shrinking violets like her to be called amateur hikikomoris. Nagi would have ignored her entirely if there was someone else to talk to.
"Lovely weather today, huh?" mumbled Nagi, glancing out of the window.
The way Nagi conducted small talk, perhaps ignoring Hitomi might have been the better choice. She did not even glance in Hitomi's direction when she spoke.

@Penguin1. The race should have a name.2. Other than that, I'm extremely open. It'll work out. Somehow.
Penguin, I still need your response.
Currently I have someone else who's interested in that. I'm probably not running 2 of such the same things though.

Okay, first, what are my rules?
1. Be polite. Be efficient. Have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
2. Post... semi-often? Like at least, once every week?
3. I do MxF, FxM or FxF. (Sorry, MxM lovers. You may consider it hypocritical. It probably is.)
4. I choke on my own vomit when I see obvious spelling and grammar errors.
5. I like to talk. Alot. Even if I'm not posting, I talk a lot. Be prepared to chat. So, be prepared to discuss things by IRC, Skype or some form of instant messenger. That generally helps to keep up my/our interest.

I don't have anything right now. So suggest something to me. Or I'll make things up.
