[F1-SP] getting me some crafting materials. <<Earning a Living repeat>>

[Nikodemus_Blackwood 1]

Not having much col to buy materials, Nikodemus had to resort to the ever hated idea of hunting for materials himself. Not wanting to drag others down hunting when they could be gearing up for the next boss fight, Nikodemus decided to go out alone. He would have to be more careful and make sure to keep his health potions at the ready. Leaving Nimbus, he went to Floor 1 once more and went out into the grasslands. With a quick step, Nikodemus put as much distance as he could from populated areas and made sure he was not followed or walking into a trap. Having found a nice place to do some searching, and then maybe kill some boars, he began searching.

Looking around the nearby area, Nikodemus sought for anything he could. Seeing nothing, he moved down abit and looked through some tall grass. His eye caught onto an item, but unearthing it he found it to be broken glass. Moving on, he turned up twigs, rocks, more glass, and some bottle corks. Grumbling, Nikodemus dug about here and there for anything buried by trampling boars feet. Nothing came up but more rocks.

Continuing on, Nikodemus search for tufts of grass and beneath some roots. Finding nothing he moved to another area and began to dig about. Still coming up fruitless, Nikodemus rested for abit and then moved one once again to another area and began to dig. He tempered his frustrations with the thought that if worse came to worse, he could hunt boars. With another fruitless search, Nikodemus began looking for boars to hunt.

coming upon a group of boars, Nikodemus crouched low and prepared to charge in. Waiting for the right moment, Nikodemus saw an opening between the two boars and charged in. Swinging his axe in, he connected with a boar and sliced a deep groove. The wounded boar squealed and then turned and bashed into Nikodemus armor. The hit was hard enough to activate the <Thorns> ability and turn the Boar to pixels. The second boar had turned and smashed into Nikodemus from behind, knocking him from his feet and leaving him in the dust. With a growl, Nikodemus leapt to his feet and prepared to attack once again.

The second boar charged in with a speed Nikodemus was shocked to see. Leaping over the beast, he brought his axe down and slashed the beast's hide as it ran by. The score was minimal and wouldn't do much but wound the beast, but it would be enough. Landing on his feet, Nikodemus backed up a few paces and prepared to charge the boar on it's return pass, hoping to finish it then and there.

As the boar rounded and came back in to charge, Nikodemus charged forward and planted himself just before the boar, swinging his axe at the boar. Having misjudged his step, the axe slid past the boars body harmlessly and Nikodemus was hit square in the chest. The impact set off his <Thorns> effect and turned to boar to pixels. Standing up and brushing himself off, Nikodemus sighed. Moving on, he went out and began to search for more materials.

Finding a nice area that seemed to be devoid of player attention, Nikodemus dug about in the grass and roots, turning up little. His eyes scanned the ground and his fingers dug through the dirt carefully. Having just come from a battle with 2 boars, Nikodemus was wounded slightly, but he would be healed to full health within the next 10 minutes or so. Feeling something within his fingers grasp beneath the dirt, Nikodemus pulled the item free and brushed it off revealing some material. Smiling, he pocketed it and moved to a new area to dig.

Moving around the area a bit, Nikodemus found another spot to search. Digging into the dirt and sifting about, Nikodemus was happy to be out in the grasslands, but ever wary for mobs, or players. Gripping something, Nikodemus lifted a material from the dirt and cleaned it off. Smiling he stored it with the others and was glad to be doing so well. His health had ticked over to full and he was ready to move about and look for some materials, or more mobs. Which ever would suit him.

Coming upon a small pond, Nikodemus noticed it showed signs of boars using it for a watering hole. Standing at the edge of the pond, Nikodemus sighed and was about to lean down and start digging, when 2 boards charged out of a tall range of brush. Without warning, Nikodemus was hit by both boars and almost sent into the water. The first boar had activated Nikodemus' armor <Thorns> effect and it was slain instantly. The second boar however was untouched. It continued it's charge past Nikodemus, skirting the water, then turned and began a new attack run.

As remaining boar charged in, Nikodemus planted his feed and then swung his axe as hard as he could. The blade made contact with the boar and severed a leg from the beast, dealing critical damage as it's momentum carried it's full weight into Nikodemus. With a staggering hit, Nikodemus fell and rolled beneath the wounded boar. It stamped and lumbered off of him, and then began to attempt to charge once more. Breathing hard, Nikodemus rolled to his knees and then stood shakily, readying his axe for one more pass.

Charging into the boar one last time, Nikodemus and the boar clashed. Blade and tusk tore at one another and the combatants broke past one another. Nikodemus had taken a good gouge in his left arm, his armor protecting it from the worst of the damage. The boar had a large cut down it's right flank. Slowly, the boar turned into pixels and vanished from sight. The base damage alone from Nikodemus' attack was enough to finish the boar, but it had triggered his <Thorns> and was given a damage buff on top of the base damage. Nikodemus looked at the wound and sighed. "Well, I had that coming to me. Reckless oaf... I should have looked around better..." Sighing again, Nikodemus looked around more and kept himself alert and aware.

Coming upon another group of boars, Nikodemus sighed and smiled slightly. "I see how this day is shaping up for me... I need to finish this all up and get home before I crumple to the ground from exhaustion." With that, Nikodemus ran forward and struck the first of the 2 boars in it's side. The boar squealed and lashed it's head back, smashing Nikodemus' leg armor hard and activating his <Thorns> effect. The boar died from the combined damage and became pixels immediately. The second of the 2 boars attempted to charge Nikodemus, but he moved aside and it ran past, turning wide and preparing to come back.

Nikodemus stood there and waited for the second boar to charge him. When it finally did, he was ready for it. With a deft swing, Nikodemus slashed the boars face with his axe, wounding it and blinding the beast. It lost it's stride but still impacted with Nikodemus none the less. Nikodemus <Thorns> effect activated and finished the boar once and for all. Nikodemus moved on and found a calm place to rest and relax, allowing his heath to regenerate.

Deciding to try searching once more, Nikodemus looked about the ground while he was resting. his health ticked up slowly. After a bit of waiting, Nikodemus stood and moved along the grasslands back towards the safezone. He was a good hour or so out so he would have enough time to search some more. Still coming up empty as he walked, he decided to stop for a bit and search the ground.

Digging through the dirt, Nikodemus smelled the air. He longed for the scent of upturned earth on his fingers, the sweet smell of the grass on the wind, the light precipitation in the air from the many ponds, lakes, and rivers that run along the grasslands. But in this world his senses were blunted slightly. He could smell stronger smells, but the light ones he couldn't discern. This made him sad, but he couldn't help it. Feeling something in his fingers, snapping from his thoughts, Nikodemus lifted the material and cleaned it off. Putting it away, Nikodemus moved on.

As he moved along, Nikodemus didn't find much else. With a sigh, He stopped again for abit and begun digging once more. He knew he would have to do this on the way back occasionally. With a smile, Nikodemus dug deep and overturned earth more and more, but came up fruitless. Deciding to move on, Nikodemus stood and began walking again. his eyes scanned back and forth as he did, and he kept himself alert for any mobs that might show up.

Moving along, Nikodemus smiled as he begin to see the outline of the Town of Beginnings in the distance. Another 30 minutes and he would be back, and then could go home. Stopping for a moment, Nikodemus dug through the ground some more and turned over a few rocks here and there. His eyes drifted about the ground here and there, and his fingers made sure to feels every inch of an area before he decided to give up on it. Standing once more, Nikodemus moved along towards the safezone.

Moving along, Nikodemus looked about, seeing some players here and there. Seeing them battling Boars and such, Nikodemus felt safe and secure knowing he was near the safe zone, and a quick sprint would put him in it's border faster than any of the players could get to him. Stopping for a moment, Nikodemus dug about the ground and sought for anything last minute. Findin nothing, he moved on and into the safe zone, then the Town of Begginings.

Wandering about the Town of Beginnings, Nikodemus smiled and stopped by a small cafe, Nikodemus took a seat and emptied out the small pouch he used to carry materials. Counting out the materials he had garnered, Nikodemus smiled and then cleaned them off with a cloth he carried. After counting and cleaning them, Nikodemus began to whistle as he put them away. Counting them off in his head, he dropped each item one by one into the pouch. Happy with his haul of 11 Materials, Nikodemus smiled and continued to whistle more.

Sitting at the table for abit, Nikodemus smiled as he saw players moving about here and there. He saw some he knew, others he didn't. Keeping to himself Nikodemus took in the sights and sounds of the Town of Beginnings. With a sigh, Nikodemus stood and began wandering about the town. He stopped here and there, talking to NPCs and checking out street vendors. With a laugh here and a small debate there, Nikodemus killed some time while the sun began to set.
