Wulfrin

Wulfrin made sure to take in the fresh virtual air of his home floor in all its grandeur. For all he knew this might be the last time he got to be alone with his wife to be. The moment felt bittersweet to him. So many invitations had gone out with promises of feasts and pageantry all before a crucial raid meeting to share info about the upcoming raid of Floor 28. Wulfrin could only think if this was what soldiers felt before they got shipped out for war. Ciela had told him of her clever plan to marry before the actual ceremony. Wulfrin liked the idea as it would allow for more intimate mo

Wulfrin's demeanor shifted as he watched his wife and pupil begin to enjoy a hearty meal. A scene that should have been an upbeat and heartfelt was instantly grounded by whatever was plaguing Wulfrin. He took his place at Ciela's side and carefully handed out their loot from the Sand Shark before beginning to eat the provided meal. Ciela's cooking never ceased to amaze him. She was fantastic at her craft. As they made their way through Fortaleza towards the teleport gate, Wulfrin's heart sank even deeper. This is what Floor 29 was missing, comradery. No friendly NPCs walked the floor. Only dea

That now makes two NPCs that seem to have some memory of his past antics. Maybe it has to do with the repetitive nature of the quest, but Sewallus was at least more tolerable than Abdullah. Though how would he know about Kumatetsu? That was unrelated to his questline. The only answer Wulfrin could find was that word must travel fast within the jungle. Wulfrin's mind continued to ponder the odd circumstances of NPC behavior the entirety of the journey. "We're here," Wulfrin spoke up breaking the silence of the quiet journey. "Here's the plan. I'm going first to hit him and lower his defens

"Today's target is the fabled King Donk," Wulfrin explained as the trio emerged from the Teleport Gate on Floor 8. "That isn't actually its name, that would be Monkey King, but doesnt change the fact that its a king and a giant gorilla." Wulfrin, Riardon, and KnightinGale made their way through the jungle to the small village of Florenthia, Wulfrin providing specific instructions on how to go undetected. When they arrived, Wulfrin made a bee line towards Remmington, one of the village guards. He wanted to get this ball rolling as fast as he could. This was a speed run after all, and the

"Checkmate," Wulfrin mumbled under his breath as the dagger rushed toward his face. Wulfrin artfully dodged the blade and turned into a whirling column of fire. His blade wreathed in the blazing fires of Avernus carved into the Bandit Boss and as a result, the last of the boss's HP vanished before him. The body shattered soon after, turning into a snow like flurry of data shards that slowly faded into nothing. Wulfrin's blade was returned to its sheath as Wulfrin turned to address is party members in waiting. "That wraps that up," Wulfrin said as he dusted off his hands. "Let's grab

"Good," Wulfrin said under his breath as Riardon and KnightinGale finally made it to safety. "Now I can unload with no issues." Wulfrin drew the Bandit Boss's attention in the opposite direction of his party members. Right into another bear trap. This time the bandit's right leg was clamped and trapped further immobilizing the boss just in time for Wulfrin's attack to go off. Wulfrin rushed in, his blade shining with a holy light. Nova Ascension had returned to his arsenal since he had started wielding the Blade of Zariel. It replaced the Ice Devil: Rage sword art from Icingdeath. Wulfrin

Wulfrin's attention turned back to his foe. The stun had worn off on the Bandit Boss as Wulfrin slowly approached. With a wry grin, Wulfrin spun in place with his sword drawn, kicking up a thick dust cloud. Amidst the makeshift disguise, Wulfrin placed a little present on the ground for his target. A heavy iron bear trap, a tool he had used on numerous foes at this point, was carefully positioned in such a way that the Bandit Boss would not miss. "C'mon then," Wulfrin taunted as the dust began to settle. "Why don't you show me what you can do?" "I'll get you for this cheap trick," Th

"Yeah I'm going to need my guildmate back," Wulfrin called out to the bandit boss. "Take your hands off him and focus on me." "So you're the one responsible for the destruction of my camp?" The bandit boss licked its lips as if it hungered for a fight. "You could say that. Why don't you take me on and find out?" "Cocky bastard you are." "Only when i know my foe is doomed to fail." The burst of energy from Riardon served as as sort of starting gun. Wulfrin and the Bandit Boss rushed forward clashing sword with hunting knife. Wulfrin had the speed advantage however, and

Wulfrin was still winded from his over-channeling of his custom skill. It was a heavy sacrifice using such an ability, which is likely why he never witnessed Freyd use it. Essentially he cut his own strength to create the duplicates and as a result their exertion falls back to him once they return. While technically the numbers were the same, using it in this way always seemed to take its toll. Wulfrin grit his teeth and forced himself to press on. The final group was not to far away from his location. Solaris fluttered overhead giving him both directions and encouragement as he moved in

"Go!" Wulfrin ordered as he approached the shattered barricade. "Corner the last group! I'll be right behind you!" As the burst of energy manifested from Riardon engulfed him, Wulfrin's eyes narrowed, focusing on the shadows of the bandits. As he rushed forward, Wulfrin dissolved into shadows reappearing next to one of the bandits. With a wave of his hand the shadows of the other bandits began to move becoming duplicates of Wulfrin. Each 'Wulfrin' drove their blade mercilessly into the heart of their respective bandit. It was a harsh reality sure, but Wulfrin had no choice, but to call on

Wulfrin followed in as KnightinGale moved on towards the barricade called out by Riardon. So far the plan was going off with zero issues. If they could keep up the pressure, these bandits should fall with relative ease. Wulfrin's mind started to drift towards the boss. The last time he had gone through this quest he had proper back up. The boss didn't even make it a couple of rounds before falling at the feet of him and Coredlia. This time though, Wulfrin would get his true one on one fight. If he was lucky the Bandit Boss would actually honor his challenge. Not that they would have much choic

"Right," Wulfrin sighed. "I deserved that one." Wulfrin charged forward, his Blade of Zariel carrying the full weight of his own strength as well as the divinity that was trapped within this very floor. While KnightinGale had chosen a heavy areal slam to open, Wulfrin stayed low to the ground, calling both flame and shadows to curl towards him. His blade blazed to life with his Phoenix Wing sword art as he darted around from foe to foe. To the outside viewer, Wulfrin appeared to be moving fast enough to create after images, each striking a single foe with immeasurable force. Another burst

"Here's the welcoming party," Wulfrin commented as they approached the outskirts of the camp. The bandits were wasting no time, almost like they expected to be raided. Wulfrin couldn't help but crack a smile as he marched forward to meet the group of four. Wulfrin stood still as the group surrounded him. "You picked a bad time to get lost friend," One of the bandits said as they raised a blade to Wulfrin's chin. "Did I?" Wulfrin scoffed as shadows and flames began to dance around his form. "Last time I checked, I was right where I intended to be." Wulfrin's holy blade, The

"Not too far," Wulfrin said as he dismissed the large sack into the depths of his inventory. "We'll be following that river I love to fish at so much. It's source is a cave that serves as the starting point for a quest chain called: Scents of The Wild. It's essentially a boss rush, so good practice if you plan to join the frontlines." Wulfrin continued to peruse the countless stalls. With a sigh he pulled out a small booklet and struck through a line. He was running out of NPCs to get supplies for the frontlines. At this point he had exhausted most of the stock within the Town of Beginni

Wulfrin pulled the two newest members of the Tracker's Alliance to Floor 9. They gathered around a large boulder cool enough for Wulfrin to lay out a rough map of a bandit camp. He was absolutely livid at this point. Not only had he run out of NPC shops to clear out for supplies, what little he had scrounged together had been stolen by the bandits of this camp. Wulfrin was hell bent on some fiery revenge, befitting the volcanic nature of Floor 9. "Thanks for agreeing to help me out," Wulfrin smiled as he manifested a spread of meats and cheeses. 'These bandits have been a thorn in my side

This time Wulfrin was out of tricks, so he would have to face Terra Firma on equal footing this time. At least the match had been relatively leveled. Thanks to the nicks in Terra Firma's armor, Solaris, and the now extinguished flames, Wulfrin guesstimated Terra Firma was libel to fall in one more blow even despite not having access to his most powerful sword art. With another volley of heavy strikes, Wulfrin slammed his blade into the side of Terra Firma. The hardened scales shattered with each blow Wulfrin landed until the sand shark itself burst into fractal motes. "And that's that," W

Terra Firma was fast as ever, but would it fall for the same trick twice? Wulfrin had to hope so. As his massive foe started to bare down on him from behind, Wulfrin cleverly placed yet another bear trap, this time grasping the opposite leg. Terra Firma roared in anger, but Wulfrin was already in motion. This time Wulfrin's blade shined an emerald green as his strikes became heavier as each impact caused deeper and deeper cracks to appear on Terra Firma's still smoldering heavily armored carapace. The debuff appeared signifying that Terra Firma's damage mitigation had lessened. Despite his bes

"Good," Wulfrin felt a smile break across his face. "That means I can go all out." Wulfrin reached into his pocket and retrieved a large iron bear trap. As Terra Firma leapt into the air to chomp down on him, Wulfrin rolled clear causing the beheamoth to crash directly into the skillfully placed trap. With his target successfully trapped, Wulfrin turned his blade back towards the giant sand shark. Wulfrin's holy blade ignited into a torrential flame. Wulfrin danced around Terra Firma in much the same vein as Solaris was, the two in proper sync for the first time. Each cut seared against t
