Ab'Fahran just shrugged off an arrow to the eye, then pulled it out. The barbs on the arrow would have given Ab'Fahran's tissue so much trauma he likely would have passed out from the pain and/or died. Let's not forget the probability that you could go into shock because you have an arrow in your eye socket, this is all assuming that you didn't just, you know, die because you were shot in the most direct paths to your brain.

Don't worry. There's going to be a little more to it than that. This may sound ridiculous, but at that time he was in such a rage, that his mind did not completely recognise that he had been hit there. Also, people can survive a projectile to the eye, and it wouldn't be shot, an arrow would be loosed or loosened. (Don't mean to be a dick, I was just saying) But, I will continue that, and he is going to be damaged more. :)

The Elder Scrolls: Rising Storm

Path between Orcrest and Corinthe. Sometime around 11am.

"Men!" Started Ab'Farahn "It is Nearly noon! Ready yourselves! We Head towards the convoy!". Ab'Farahn mounted his horse and led the men down the path towards where they assumed the convoy would be. After about 20 minutes, they had finally found the convoy, and noticed the Imperials behind it. "You must be the Imperials that Emperor Triarius sent." Stated Ab'Farahn "Thank you for arriving. Our Mane can not thank you enough. We believe that the Bandits will attempt to attack from the two hills on the left and right of the road, about three miles ahead." He then explained.

OOC: (Please excuse me adding an OOC part onto my IC post. I'm just making sure it will be seen.) I'm not entirely sure how we are going to do the combat that may (Probably will) happen with the bandits... Any ideas?

The Elder Scrolls: Rising Storm

Imperial Palace, Imperial City, Cyrodiil.

The messenger bowed and nodded as the Emperor rode away. "Safe Travels, My Emperor!" He yelled as he started his journey back to Elsweyr as fast as his feet would take him.

***Three or four Hours later***

The Mane's Palace, Torval, Elsweyr.

"My Mane," Ab'Farahn said "The messenger as returned."
"Bring him in! Now!" Replied Ab'kar. "Did you make it?! Does he know?! Will they come?!" Asked Ab'kar quickly.
"Many questions my Mane..." Replied the messenger, Ma'far, as he panted "Ma'far will answer all.... I made it... He knows... They will come... Well, they will try... If they are not already there... Which I currently doubt they are... It may be possible... They will be on their way..." Ma'far finished.
"Good, Go now Ma'far. Ab'kar gives you leave. Go rest." replied Ab'kar.
"Thank you my Mane." Ma'far retired to rest.

"They best make it here in time, my Mane. Ab'Farahn is worried." Ab'Farahn said.
"Let's hope they do." replied Ab'kar.
"They could do who knows what with that equipment. We need it."
"Then let us hope they do not acquire it. Ab'Farahn, Send the few ill equipped men we do have, and yourself, to help the Emperors men."
"Yes, my Mane."
"May the gods watch over them..."

Ab'Farahn went to the barracks of Torval, yelling orders as he went through. Ab'Farahn mounted his horse and marched the men to path between Orcrest and Corinthe. The men were equipped with tatted leather armor, except for the few who had managed to acquire Elven armor from the dead Thalmor from the past few years (and even that was damaged), and old, rusted Iron swords and bows. At least the arrows were undamaged. They had scavenged the few supplies they could from the revolt against the Aldmeri Dominion. Sadly, That was not much. Ab'Farahn wore a custom made set of armor made from scraps of Leather, Iron, and Elven armor, and wore a Sabre-toothed cat's skin around his neck. He was equipped with a heavy Elven Warhammer. The army, if you could even call it that, it was more like a band of ill equipped adventurers, rode towards their destination.

***1-2 Hours later***

Near the path between Orcrest and Corinthe.

The Khajiits had arrived near the path. They hid behind a canyon, so they would not give there position away to the plotting bandits. "Let's hope the Imperials arrive here soon." Said Ab'Farahn.

***30 minutes later***

Suddenly, the Khajjits were attacked by a small portion of the bandits. As Ab'Farahn heard the battle cries coming from over a nearby hill, he turned his head, and to his shock a group of bandits flooded over the hill. The bandit group consisted of four swordsmen and two archers, While the Khajiit forces consisted of 10 ill equipped archers, 6 ill equipped swordsmen and Ab'Farahn. The archers loosed their bows and one of the arrows hit the corner of Ab'Farahn's left eye, and the other killed one of the Khajiit's swordsmen. Ab'Farahn screamed in pain, and was suddenly overcome in rage. The arrow fell from his eye to the floor. Luckly, the arrow did not do any major damage, and had just damaged his eyesight. "Bastard!" He yelled, as he charged up the hill toward the archers. He smashed one skull with his Warhammer and dived onto the other, who had hit him. He smashed the others skull in several times, before finally stamping on his face... Well the face that was now a pile of crushed bones, and blood. The Khajiits had managed to kill the four swordsmen, but lost a few men. The Khajiits lost three archers and two swordsmen. "Scavenge all the gear you can from our men and their men!" Yelled Ab'Farahn as blood poured from his eye "We will bury our loses later." The Khajiit men started to scavange all the equipment they could, equipping themselves with the better gear, saying their goodbyes and giving their respects as they did. "These men were too skilled to be ordinary bandits... Something is up..." Whispered Ab'Farahn "Ab'Farahn is worried.". Ab'Farahn picked up piece of cloth and folded it around his head, covering the corner of his left eye, as a bandage. "Men!" He yelled "let us move! More will come to discover what has happened soon. Let us find a new place to take up hold!".

The Elder Scrolls: Rising Storm

Inside Torval, The city-state in which the Mane (Currently Ab'kar Sarahaan) and his tribe are located and which no Human may tread, the Mane stood above a table covered by a map of Elsweyr inside his brightly lit palace. His palace was surrounded by sugar cane gardens. The Mane's, mane was flowing with the hair of him and his fellow tribe members. His Mane weighed him down so much he could barely move.
"My Mane," A familiar voice nearby said "We must act quickly!". The voice was the Manes 'Warrior Guard', Ab''Farahn. "If we do not act quickly, Then the bandits will attack the arms convoy, and we will lose all of our arms! We may even risk attack, as these bandits equip themselves, and do... The gods know what!".
"Ab''Farahn," The Mane replied "We must not be clumsy about this. If we act too quickly, our actions may result in failure. It would be foolish, to act without thinking. Besides, our men will never reach there in time.".
"And if we take to long thinking then that would also result in failiure! That too would be foolish!"
"Hmm... Perhaps we can ask the Imperials for aid."
"What? You think they will help with a few bandits? Ab''Farahn is amused!.. What good have they ever done us!"
"Are you forgetting that they helped us kick out the Aldmeri?.. Because Ab'kar Sarahaan certainly hasn't."

Ab'kar started to write a letter.
"Fine!.. Ab'Farahn shall take this letter to the Imperials." Ab'Farahn said.
Ab'kar laughed, "Don't be foolish Ab'Farahn!" He replied.
"What? What is so amusing!? Ab'Farahn does not understand!"
"I'm not risking sending you! I need you! You are Ab'kar and Torval's Warrior Guard! You shall remain here. You would never make it in time anyway!"
"And who would? Who would make it in time to deliver a message before the attack?"
"I shall send a Khajiit Scout, messenger, or whatever you would like to call it. Trained in the best athletics!" Ab'kar clapped his hands. A messenger came into the room.
"You called Ma'far, My Mane?" The messenger asked.
"Yes." The mane replied "Take this to the imperial city to the White Gold Tower in the Imperial city. Give it to the Emperor, or any way in which he may receive it." The mane handed him the letter.
"But that is an entire province awa... Yes my Mane."
"Good. Ab'kar thanks you Ma'far. Go now." He waved Ma'far off.
"Yes my Mane."

The letter read:
"Dear Emperor Gaius Triarius,
Ab'kar, Mane of Elsweyr, Requires your assistance. Elsweyr is in danger from a band of bandits. Now, Ab'kar knows it sounds stupid, but please continue reading. There is a convoy of weapons and armor heading from the city of Orcrest to The city of Corinthe. However, the convoy is at risk of attack from bandits, who if succeed in their task, will have an unbelievable amount of equipment. With this equipment they could do many terrifying things! They could increase there operations and could even attack a city! Ab'kar asks you now, please come to aid us inbetween the path of Orcrest and Corinthe at noon tomorrow! The reason Ab'kar come to you rather than sending Ab'kar's own military, is the fact that you are more equipped and have better transport, with your many breeds of horses. Our current Imperial Garrison is still ill equipped and is stationed in Cornithe, which is of course where the equipment is headed.

Kind regards,
Ab'kar Sarahaan, Mane of Elsweyr."

"You think he will get there in time? More important do you think the Imperials will come to our aid in time, or to our aid at all?" Asked Ab'Farahn.
"I know he will, I can not say about the rest ." Replied Ab'kar.
***
The messenger arrived at the Imperial city in under two hours. He headed to the tower, and requested permission to see the emperor. "I have a message for the Emperor." He said "From the Mane of Elsweyr.".

In this corner, we have the Argonians, and they're all fired up. In the other corner, we have the Dark Elves, and they're all fired up(by their volcano).

XD
I was gonna be Dark Elves, but they were already taken. Still, I like the Khajiit equally, and I think it could be interesting as them.

Not exactly sure yet. I know that I will be working with the Empire, and trading with Valenwood.

Meh, I disagree. It's silly that people think 'Oh their a minority and their evil, the writers are racist! Their making them evil because their a minority' No, their evil because they are evil. Plus weren't the Easterlings working for him in return for money, like the Corsairs were? It's not really any different than when the King of the Dead joins the forces of Good in order to be released, he's doing it in return for something, not because of a moral disposition.

True again. But we will always get one idiot, even if he was white or even chinese, no matter what nationallity, skin tone, e.t.c, always saying "HEY THAT'S RACIST!"...

Also, I'm thinking of starting an Assassin's Creed roleplay, where you can either be a leader of assassin's or Templars in one of the countries, in any time period (Preferably not /probably not modern day), or as an assassins or templar under the command of one of those leaders. For example, one player could be an Assassin leader in the 1700s in a country (and there could be a templar leader), and one could be a leader in the 1900s (again with another templar leader) in that country, and they both could have different assassins under their command in those time periods. Players could also have multiple characters.

I have not done this yet as I would like to see peoples views on this Idea first, And I don't know which category to put it in in (Probably would be in Nation Roleplay). Of course, if I did this, I would remain active on this Elder Scrolls roleplay still. :)
