Just got back, will try to get the urge to continue this RP. Had a big crisis with internet, just got it back today, so a bit iffy.
So, I guess I can offically put this RP as dead it seems.
Sorry about the wait, that very moment of slowness is kicking in. Might be awhile, i'll try to get to it when I can though.
It's fine, as i said before, I might end having slow posts as-well
No worries, i'm sure both of ours will go up and down during the course of the RP. I'm not sure about the whole cutting trees down in one swing thing, sounds too fantasy bleach like for my tastes, i'd rather stick to realism, if you don't mind. :P
Askr awoke with a start, almost swinging his large ax madly in the air as he jumped to his feet, already in a battle stance. There was nothing there, but the mere solid step of his armor on the ground and woosh of his large, sharpened down two handed axe swinging about sent the two Spartans Thanos and Damaris up from their rest with shields in their grips and spears at the ready in a slight crouch before peering at the viking as if he was the most foolish person alive.

Planting his spear butt into the ground Thanos sighed, "Askr you damn fool, you made us think we were attacked." Thanos didn't sound terribly upset about it in all honesty, he knew the man was odd and was having nightmares of late, ever since the last battle with the Roman forces he couldn't shake the sound of heavy ballista and catapult rounds hitting nearby him, taking down their allies one by one or in massed hordes. They barely got out of the battle alive with a narrow victory.

"I'll call it keeping yer senses sharp den, could have very well have been da enemy." Came Askr's reply, always one to be a gruff sense of humor in all regard, he tended to make all the jokes around camp in the end. It was getting close to daylight, their shift anyways. "Thanos, get Sir Howard up, time for our shift." Damaris said once he looked around and lowered his fine, diamond shaped steel tipped Doru tip to the ground lightly, both of the Spartans had javelins on their back, loosely so that it was easy to switch from their Doru to the javelin so they could throw, pick up the spear and get into quick formation on the go in battle. Being quick in movement prevented casualties more often than not in the end.

Damaris peered about a bit longer, focusing his vision more in-tune, "Where is Margaret and Sasuki?" Almost as if on que Sasuki appeared from the shadows to the right side of Damaris, causing him to almost get into a defensive formation before he realized who it was, and then Margaret appeared from nearby. "Nothing so far." Came Margaret's reply, Sasuki merely gave a short bow to acknowledge it.

"Good. You two get some rest, we'll take over watch for now." Damaris said, him and Thanos moving off to the most exposed section of their camp to guard, staying side by side in typical Spartan fashion, strength in unity, and they were extremely good at such. Meanwhile, Askr an Howard, who was now up and finishing the arranging of his heavy armor and weapons, took up nearby positions but a bit separated from each other, keeping solid guard over their archer and elite scout as they rested up, Sasuki looking more like heavy meditation then sleeping, though she was, in a sense, sleeping while Margaret was sprawled out on a makeshift mat fast asleep. It'd be near impossible to sneak up in the current position, due to the heavy amount of branches, with Askr and Howard looking both ways on the other heavily grassed and tree'd up positions, they'd sooner see someone go slow through those directions than they would make it fully in, then everyone would be up and ready for a fight.

Askr peered about, resting his two handed ax butt on the ground and leaning on the flat ax top with both arms as he looked to Howard. "Might be good to try hunting later aye? Maybe that creepy shady girly sitting down over der can find something nice for us, she seems all quiet like." In response Howard peered at Sasuki and Margaret, "I agree that those two girls make the quietest hunters we got, but we'd need to be careful about cooking, smoke trails up far, especially in forests. Give away our location easily." He stated.

Askr blinked, as if not comprehending it. "Den just ambush da fuckers when they come here eh?" He said, quite plainly. He was itching for a battle, he loved fighting, just like the two Spartans sought death in battle more so than everyone there.
There we go, should be good enough for a introduction, big forest so two hours isn't much to go through it all at a slow pace. Should be night time by the time yours ends, can leave it up to you whatever your band does of course through the first post.
The Celtic rain-forest, a dangerous ground known for hunters of all kinds. Men, women, animals alike. It was a place where people dreaded to fight in and wanted to fight in all the same, or just survive with ample opportunity to, if you had the skills to adapt. A odd party of people made it's way into the forest, nearly two hours of trekking through the meadows and underbrush the six warriors made their way steadily within, with one goal, to ultimate the unknown opposition.

Two women, a woman in light leather with a longbow in her left hand, moving with practiced ease through the forest ahead, alongside another woman who made it look even easier, never making a single mistake in footing, and not a single sound, not one footprint was seen on this one, and she wore all black with the strangest of weapons to note. Behind, were the actual warriors of the party, a heavily armored man with full half plate covering all kinds of obvious points to attack at, visor up on his helmet to allow open vision as he gazed about the surroundings, his steps were the loudest, breaking branches, creating large footsteps due to his weight and causing a slight ruckus as he pushed forward, that was why he was put at the back of the group and not the front. Finally, a viking, well known for their trade in fighting in forests and mountains alike, pushed forward behind the two women, wearing chainmail and holding a large battleax in his hands, not something you can simply put on the back after all. At his belt was a straight sword and four throwing axes, and finally at his back was a round shield, even with his armor his footsteps weren't as bad as the knight at the back and two equally armored men in the middle, the Spartans. Shields upon their left arms, always out and at the ready, footsteps marking the preparation of battle at every turn, they knew what they were doing, having survived forests and all kinds of environments at a young age, they were prepared for all kinds of things, animals to surprise attacks, as for the leader of the band, most notably the one with a transverse red crest on his helmet of the two Spartans, eyed everything carefully, he made his trade as a well known tactician in the Spartan nation, being replaced and now just a simple soldier, he was handpicked with this odd band of warriors of different nations, and different time periods all the same, for this strange goal to kill the opponents in a odd game of time, something none of them would understand.

Damaris called out though to the band after the two hour march nearly hit it's stop, "Hold." He stated, simply, everyone came to a stop in different accords, his fellow spartan and the knight behind stopping immediately, used to how orders worked. "We'll set camp nearby, we don't know where the enemy is, so stay alert. We'll keep watch an change shifts so everyone can get well needed rest before the next day." He stated simply, they moved to the side, in a well covered underbrush, keeping them completely secure from the East to the South, leaving North and West open to heavy grass and a path for open plains nearby.

Damaris motioned for Margaret, the archer of the group to proceed forward and take the first direct watch alongside Sasuki, the groups Ninja. Both had the best eyes of the group by far, and the first few hours of sleep were the worst in preparation for most assaults. If it came down to a direct fight, they wanted the heavy hitter fighters to be prepared more so than the lighter, scout and archer types of their group. Both took up positions in good hiding angles, with Margaret on the higher ground in-between two trees on a small hill nearby them, with a large bundle of grass covering her back so all she had to do was look forward for approaches. Sasuki meanwhile, stayed low, letting the shadows envelope her form as she hid, not complaining in the slightest, she rarely even spoke unless it was needed. She remained silent, a little further ahead of Margaret, practically apart of the brush and trees she was nearby as darkness crept more and more. Meanwhile, the men took up their shift of rest, using what camping supplies they had to get some rest for the night, until their shift was at turn to occur.
Enough to have a interesting build up to things, probably involve day night venturing, gathering food and surviving. Seeing if the enemy will notice the surviving of campgrounds, etc.
Got my chars up for the thread. Are you fine with starting some ways apart and building up to it with survival and such in the forest as-well? Having like a mini story while they prep for the fight against the enemy somewhere in the forest
