Ethereal 0 Posted February 23, 2016 #1 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Eth trudged up a small mound that one could hardly class as a bump nevermind anything like a hill, his dragonbone greaves being splattered with flecks of mud. Upon reaching the crest of the mound - a mere few meters - his emerald eyes settled on several mobs roaming about in the field beyond. This seemed like a fairly nice place to farm and he may as well make the most of it. For now though, he would search the dirt beneath him for any loose stones or similar objects. Loot: 15 As luck seemed to have it, under his heel was a tiny black scale. "Looks like a Hidop Viper.. Nice hunting around here." Eth would mutter as he scooped it up and pocketed it.

Ethereal 0 Posted February 23, 2016 Author #2 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Glancing around the scale, the warrior would spot another. Then another connected to that. With a sudden shock of realisation, Eth would slowly raise his eyes to be confronted with a serpent at least three times his size. Instinctively he would jump back, the beast hadn't seen him yet but he'd be in trouble once it did. Hidop Viper (63 Health, 33 Damage), 11 Mit Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites
Ethereal 0 Posted February 23, 2016 Author #3 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Readying himself, Eth draws the huge greatsword slung across his back with a rasp of steel against bone. With a slow breath he would level the point of the jagged weapon at the back of the monster, crouch slightly and charge with a single hard push off from the ground. Battle: 1 (+3 = 4) MISS -> +2 DMG NEXT HIT ► Charge: 1 Ranks Post Action Effect: Attack action. +1 DMG. Description: Charge towards an opponent that is not currently in melee range. Deal bonus DMG of +1 per rank of charge on this attack. You may only use charge once per opponent and only if it is possible via roleplay. You cannot disengage from a melee to perform a charge. This is considered an attack maneuver and is subject to success or failure based on the BD's results. The extra attack is added on before the sword art onto the base. Having not fought in a long time, only a few weeks ago living in the mountains to think, needless to say that Eth was out of practice.

Ethereal 0 Posted February 23, 2016 Author #4 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) The snake whipped around to the man as he missed, flicking its neck towards him with fangs outstretched and poised to strike him. Simultaneously Eth spins on the spot, attempting to evade the hit but use the same momentum to strike back at the beast. Cyclone 4x1 - (4 Energy) - A multi-hit sword art that uses the user's heel as a pivot to spin violently, chaining together multiple hits. 49050 Battle: 3 (+3 = 6) Mob: 1 Damage: [1(Base) + 6(Sword) + 2(Momentum) + 5(Skills)] x 4 = 56 - 11(Mit) = 45 Eth's blade would glisten with red as he spun, contacting the skin of the beast once and hence activating the sword skill. The blade would suddenly shimmer red and cut through the air like a hot knife through butter. The viper screams in pain, missing as the jagged edge cuts through it. The warrior would carry through the momentum and spin three more times, opening two large X's on its flesh. Edited February 23, 2016 by Ethereal Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites
Ethereal 0 Posted February 23, 2016 Author #5 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Screeching in anger and hate, the viper would rear up with sizzling venom dripping onto the dirt and strike as fast as lightning. Recovering from the skill, Eth would raise up his dark blade and attempt to swing it as to bat the creature's head aside. Scooped - 3x1 - (3 Energy) - A three-hit sword art that employs varying over and under-cut motions. Energy = 30 - 4 - 3 + 1 = 24 49061 Battle: 6 (+3 = 9) MOB: 4 Damage: [1(Base) + 6(Sword) + 5(Skills)] x 3 = 36 - 11(Mit) = 25 Loot: 16 (+1 = 17) -> 1 Mat + 315(63x5) Col The snake writhes in anger as it is hit three times by yet another flourish of the massive blade, the last of which happened to cut straight through its neck. With a fading hiss, the head would slip down and the snake will burst into sparkles. Edited February 23, 2016 by Ethereal Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites
Ethereal 0 Posted February 23, 2016 Author #6 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) With the sparks fading away behind him, Eth glances to movement in the corner of his eye. Just in time, he realises that four more snakes are slithering over and will be upon him in a moment. The vipers hiss as they are discovered and speed up, moving as fast as they can towards the lone man with the big sword.

Ethereal 0 Posted February 23, 2016 Author #7 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) To their surprise, the warrior reciprocates with fire in his eyes; "You thought you could surprise me..?" Eth hisses, suddenly dashing towards them with sword primed. He grimaces as he reaches them, raising his arms above his head ready to use some sort of masterful Sword Art. Fight Blade - 6x1 - AoE - (12 Energy) - A mid-tier sword art that utilizes a mixture of over, under, and middle-cuts across multiple targets.

Ethereal 0 Posted February 26, 2016 Author #8 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) Several more of the snake-things crawl from the ground behind Ethereal, attempting to strike at his legs while he was off-balance from fighting their brethren. 49375 Battle: 1 (+3 = 4) MOB: 3 Hidop Viper (63 Health, 33 Damage), 11 Mit Ethereal appears to be caught out but suddenly sidesteps at the last second by half-stumbling and falling onto the ground. God knows what can happen now. Edited February 26, 2016 by Ethereal Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites
Ethereal 0 Posted February 26, 2016 Author #9 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) Ethereal attempts to swing his sword at the mobs as they came closer, waving his massive stalagmite of a weapon at them while trying to get up off the ground. The vipers for their part were ready and waiting, attempting to strike while he was down. He would activate his strongest AoE once again, attempting to ward them off. Fight Blade - 6x1 - AoE - (12 Energy) - A mid-tier sword art that utilizes a mixture of over, under, and middle-cuts across multiple targets.
