Bio
I'm Randomness. I also go by others names when it's unavailable, but those are usually some variation of Randomness or Random in general.
I like anime, video games, and science. I'm currently in school studying to become an radiologic technologist. I'm in the initial stages, so I'm on my way. My favorite anime is Eureka Seven, and my favorite video game is a tie between Kingdom Hearts and Etrian Odyssey.
I have several story ideas, but currently lack motivation to write them out. I have plenty of notes for some of them so when I finally get around I'm prepared. That said, I absolutely enjoy group story telling like you do through role playing. One of my interests involved is world building and the connections between them if any.
One of my characters travels between worlds, dimensions and universes. What these are meant to be are different RPs. There seems to be some taboo around such a character, but I feel that is should be judged on a case by case basis. The idea of a seasoned character who has been on many adventures being able to share stories in passing sounds like a fun idea. I thought it would be an interesting idea that those stories could be from other RPs. He isn't meant to highjack the current RP, or be over powered. I admit, I can see that concern. Really though, he is meant to be an eccentric character with stories and treasures not before seen. The effects of these stories are meant to be entertaining, like fairy tales to the current cast. And what treasures he has or can use I'd restrict to what makes sense in the current world. But like I said before, it should be case by case. A learner, and a story teller. I think it's fun to link concept together through this character so the story could live on in new ways and perhaps give new RPs a different kind of character. Without upending everything of course.

Staring at the three before it, the spider had what looked to be easy targets. One of the men was finishing handling the metal armor while the woman who climbed atop it was already greatly injured prior. The last of the three was helping the woman onto the machine. None of them were in a position to put up their guard before the fiendish spider could come down on them. Charging forward with great speed, the spider stopped short of crashing into yet another barrier materialized from thin air. It used its forward legs to push off the wall before it could crash into it. It was certain now that these nuisances were cast from the leaf covered elf. Not to be deterred by the barrier again, the demon attempted to climb over it only for the barrier to increase in height to hinder its progress.
By now, the metal man had disappeared somewhere away from the three, leaving only two before it. One of them took to the front, standing his ground leading the defense. Using hose-like attachments, this being sprayed a shower of acid over the protective barrier, covering the fiend with sickly green fluid. The spider hissed clawing at the acidic rain in an ill attempt to stop it. Yet despite these actions, it seemed to be in no pain. The webs that covered its body started to burn away, but its flesh, hair, and spines seemed free of harm. Not only that, but the creature’s mannerisms didn’t seem to be that of pain, rather of annoyance.
After swiping a few more times at the shower, it raised its forward legs, rested them on the barriers, and using its two large fangs positions below her torso at the spider head, pierced the barrier. Injecting the barrier with a black liquid, it immediately started to melt away as if it were a physical object ceasing to exist as the poison spread. When the barrier gave way, the spider fell forward once again standing on all eight legs towering before the dwarf. With a screech, the spider opened its mouth and fired another netted web at the mechanical dwarf, knocking him back several meters and pinning him to the ground. Any exposed flesh the webs had contact with started to feel numb immediately. Unlike with Katelin, however, the spider turned its attention away from the easy prey and focused on De’kae.
While the majority of combatants were either by the fire or making their way to further combat with the demonic spider, it would be able to bear down on De’kae before they could arrive. Even when her eyes were covered by the creature’s long black hair, it gave a piercing glare that could send chills up almost anyone’s spine. It began to charge towards the elf with intent to kill her brutally. Even if she could cast a barrier, the spider would use her speed to climb over it rather than stop this time.

@silvermist1116 Ha! Please copy the monster. That would be hilarious. 😛
Question that I didn’t think to mention. How long do the copies last?

@silvermist1116 I wonder how Esperanta can even aim when she is plastered like that.
Apologies for the delay. I was hoping that LogantheCat would have a reaction, but it looks like we'll have to wait a little bit longer for it. For now, this is how the spider reacted to everyone's assault.
Seemingly all at once, heroes, adventurers, and vigilantes charged at the demonic arachnid as she loomed over Katelin poised to strike with its sharp black fangs. She lunged towards the defenseless girl only to be thwarted by a wall of green energy that had materialized between them. Confused, the fiendish spider struck at the wall using her clawed hands, attempting to destroy it. It took a step back but by that time, the ground that surrounded it had erupted into flames, replacing the area katelin was lying on the ground.
Letting out a sinister hiss, the spider shuffled about to remove itself from the flames. Before it could make much progress at all, its body was hit with a wave of verdant energy. It could no longer look for what had happened to its prey, the energy blinding it momentarily. Even so, the spider was able to quickly scurry out of the flames. Clawing away at the residual energy, the spider’s attention turned to the girl adorned in leaves, but only for a moment. As soon as the energy dissipated, a heavy object had landed on its back.
Like the sharp hairs that were more like swords that protruded from the arachnid legs, the hairs that covered the creature’s back were also sharp. Saria’s armor protected her from most of the spikes, but some of the shorter ones were caught underneath the steel hanging around her hip and groin, and some of the longer ones stabbing at her underarms and catching under the hanging shoulder plates. The needles like hairs were not pointed straight, so they weren’t able to cleanly pierce if at all.
The horrific monster was not keen on being mounted. It raised its body, stretching it legs suddenly in order to get Saria to shift and perhaps scrape against the spike trap that was its back. At the same time, it was able to turn it’s human like torso slightly and reach at her using one of its clawed arms. While it attempted to remove Saria, it scampered around the fire pit, stepping into it on occasion the heat forcing it away every time. Eventually after enduring as many attacks from Saria as it could, it latched onto one of the webs that it had dangling from the ceiling, and climbed up, the shift in gravity forcing Saria off of its back. Drops of dark green blood dripped onto the ground as it quickly climbed from the wounds that Saria had inflicted. Unfortunately, it was not enough to dispatch the hellish monster.
Back up on the ceiling, it shrieked once again. Too high up for any one warrior beyond a ranger or mage to reach, it was able to crawl along the ceiling relatively safe from the majority of combatants. Using the webs it was able to produce from its mouth it wrapped its body covering various parts of its legs. Once it was done it quickly descended from the ceiling once again, away from the flames and the warrior wielding the crimson blade. This time, it had positioned itself upon the other side of the dormant metal man. Natalia’s armor and those who gave it their attention were what separated it from the flames. Natalia’s armor and those who gave it their attention were the closest prey the fiendish spider from hell could consume.

@Doc Doctor Wow, that is quite the muscular man. Interesting name. He’ll probably feel right at home fighting for survival with no care as to why. He is accepted and can be placed in the character tab.
Since Katelin was more or less the spotlight character, I’m going to give Loganthecat a little bit to post. Otherwise, I’ll have a reply some time tomorrow.

I'm sorry @LogantheCat, but the opportunity was too good to pass up.
I think if by a couple posts enough direct and quick actions take place, I'll post reactions and counter attacks. I'll try to pay attention to how many times people post so that some of us don't get left behind.

The fiendish spider monstrosity was nearly on top of the small group of warriors that still stood in front of her. She raised one of her long arms and clawed hands preparing to swipe at them when one of them humorously rolled away. That did not matter; there were still a couple of small fleshy beings in front of her. Before she could fully attack, a woman brandishing a sword glowing of deep crimson forced her way through the fiend’s bladed legs. If unhindered, the power put behind the red blade’s master would have been devastating. Yet, the broken hairs were enough.
With a snap, the large spider abomination was able to shift her body suddenly, and use her other hand gouge at Saria as she lunged forward. The fiend’s speed coupled with Saria momentum left her with little to no room to evade. Fortunately, Saria had allies though not sought, were willing to aide her. De’kae was able to give Saria a barrier moment before the sharpened claws could rip into her. The barrier was enough to prevent any potential penetration of Saria’s armor, instead repelling Saria backwards. The arachnid beast was momentarily dazed by the knock back, but quickly recovered.
The creature scanned the room darting her head side to side, attempting to find the source of the repelling effect that had saved Saria earlier only for it to catch a spear made of ice out of the air using her long arms. It was aware of the other spear lodged within its spines, but had ignored it. Now, her attention was on the slender girl pulling back her bow. With no one in between them, and no one standing ground next to her, the fiendish spider turned to face Katelin completely.
Opening what could be best described as some kind of mouth from between its large fangs, the spider sprayed out several webs that spread midflight. Acting like a net, the webs caught the arrows she had fired midflight, detonating, and setting part of them on fire. Even so, the shot continued until it had engulfed Katelin, knocking her back onto the ground. Anywhere the webs had contact with exposed skins started to feel numb. Quickly, the fiend had crawled towards her. The webs were partially broken thanks to the flaming arrows destroying part of the web midflight, so Katelin wasn’t completely pinned. But the spider abomination was right on top of her, fang poised to strike. This left Katelin with barely a moment to escape.
Katelin could either fend for herself, or someone could come to her aid. There was still an air of confusion wafting between the champions. If defeating this villain of nature was the goal, it stood still for the time being, making it an easier target. At least, for now.

Great first posts all around. After Duthguy and Silvermist post, I will post an update.
To be honest, this is the first RP I've run with so many players. I might need to start employing minor updates just to react to some of the more immediate actions like Saria and katelin's attacks. This could also allow more preparation posts like where Natalia needs to correct her armor. After that I could post a main update where the spider does a lot of things and we can go from there.
It's just a thought. For now, lets see how Leon and Esperanta react to their sudden grave situation.
