Ourian 0 Posted May 1, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Listening in on some of the players in town, Ourian had learned of a rare treasure that could be found somewhere on the third floor. Nobody knew exactly where it was, making it only a rumor, however Ourian was intent on proving/disproving that the treasure exists by finding it himself. As for what the treasure is... some say that it is a precious artifact, others say it is a weapon of some kind... All he knew for sure was that each rumor had one thing in common: The treasure was supposedly heavily guarded. Taking care to prepare for the journey and bringing along enough provisions, Ourian makes his way to the teleport plaza. "Teleport: Delilah Village!" Ourian shouts as he is teleported in a flash of light from the Town of Beginnings to the small medieval village on the third floor. Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 1, 2015 Author #2 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Leaving the village, Ourian makes his way towards the prairies in search of the Town of Flora, where the NPC that has more info on the treasure will be. Continuing along the path, Ourian spots a spring off in the distance and decides to check it out. As he approached, he could hear the trickle of the water flowing downstream. Slowly, he reached his hand into the water, feeling the chill of the water embrace his hand as he cupped it to take a sip. Looking up, he notices what appear to be two fairy- like creatures. Both of them were about three and a half feet tall, one male and one female, wings fluttering like a hummingbird's keeping them airborne. It seemed like they were dancing. Amused, Ourian sat down and watched. Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 1, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted May 1, 2015 About five minutes later, they finally take notice to Ourian. Their reaction, however, was not what he was expecting. The girl seemed to be afraid of Ourian, however the boy flew in front of her and rested his hand on what appeared to be a small sword. "I mean you no harm..." Ourian explained, unsure of whether or not they were capable of speech. Suddenly, the boy rushes at Ourian, unsheathing his sword and training it at Ourian. [iD: 15110] BD: 7 CD: 1 LD: 9 MD: 9 (-1) "DAMN!" Ourian shouted as the fairy slashed him in the cheek. Annoyed now, Ourian spins around and slashes at the fairy, his sword making contact with his leg. --- [///////////// ] Ourian [//////// ] Male Fairy [////////] Female Fairy Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 2, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Flying overhead, the male fairy glares at Ourian and throws his sword at him. [iD: 15177] BD: 8 CD: 5 LD: 1 MD: 5 (-1) =4 Predicting the attack based off of the fairy's movements, Ourian sidesteps the blade and jumps up, slashing him in the wing and causing him to fall to the ground. As soon as he hit the ground, Ourian grabs the fairy's sword and tosses it at the fairy's foot, impaling it and pinning him to the ground. --- [///////////// ] Ourian [///// ] Male Fairy [////////] Female Fairy Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 2, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted May 2, 2015 While the boys fought, the female fairy stayed away from the fight. [iD: 15178] BD: 2 CD: 8 LD: 17 MD: 1 Frightened be the ferocity of the fight, she was stricken with fear and was unable to do anything to support her ally. --- [///////////// ] Ourian [///// ] Male Fairy [////////] Female Fairy Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 2, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Taking advantage of the fact that the oponent would have a hard time dodging the attack, Ourian rushes in full force with his sword trailing behind him. [iD: 15179] BD: 7 CD: 4 LD: 8 MD: 9 (-1) =8 Approaching his target, Ourian slashes horizontally, cutting the fairy in the stomach. Thinking Quickly, the fairy removes its sword from his foot and stabs Ourian on the stomach. --- [/////////// ] Ourian [/// ] Male Fairy [////////] Female Fairy Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #7 Share Posted May 3, 2015 After impaling Ourian in the stomach, the fairy pulls his sword out and spins around. [iD: 15227] BD: 1 CD: 10 (Battle Healing Activated) LD: 3 MD: 8 (-1) = 7 Before Ourian could react, the fairy hits him in the stomach with a spinning slash. Gasping in pain, Ourian backs off and inspects his new wound only to find that it was glowing and healing. "Thank you, Battle Healing skill!" Ourian said, grinning slightly. --- [/////////// ] Ourian [/// ] Male Fairy [////////] Female Fairy Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #8 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Gathering her wits about her, the female fairy grabs her bow and readies an arrow, taking aim at Ourian. [iD: 15228] BD: 1 CD: 9 LD: 6 (used to determine the number of arrows in possession.) MD: 4 (-1) = 3 Taking a deep breath, she lets the arrow fly, however the arrow misses as Ourian backs up after taking a hit from the male fairy's spinning slash. --- [/////////// ] Ourian [/// ] Male Fairy [////////] Female Fairy [///// ] Arrows remaining Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #9 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Watching the arrow fly past him as he backed away, Ourian quickly looks to his right to see the female fairy readying her next arrow. Damn... She's an archer... He swore. I gotta end this quickly! It was a known fact that archer fairies on this floor could be dangerous if left unchecked. According to the rumors, they even had a variation of the Battle Healing skill. Deciding that he should try and take out the male first, since he was already weakened, [iD: 15229] BD: 6 CD: 1 LD: 6 MD: 9 (-1) = 8 Jumping forward, Ourian landed in front of the fairy and sidestepped to the right, slashing down as he did so and catching the fairy off guard as he cut him in the arm. The fairy, however, retaliated with a slash to the back of Ourian's left arm. --- [///////// ] Ourian [// ] Male Fairy [////////] Female Fairy [///// ] Arrows remaining Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #10 Share Posted May 3, 2015 After slashing Ourian in the arm, the fairy hovers upward for a blow to his neck, however Ourian was anticipating an attack of this nature and caught the sword with his hand. [iD: 15230] BD: 7 CD: 12 (Battle Healing activated) LD: 13 MD: 4 (-1) = 3 "Sorry... but you're just starting to piss me off now..." Ourian told the fairy as he slashed it from head to toe, killing it. As he turned to the female fairy, his wound on his left arm healed up slightly. --- [////////// ] Ourian[Deceased] Male Fairy {ID: 15230 LD: 13} Obtained Fairy Wing: Speed Material [////////] Female Fairy [///// ] Arrows remaining Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #11 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Enraged at her friend's death, she readies another arrow as Ourian turned to her and fired. [iD: 15231] BD: 9 CD: 7 LD: 3 MD: 10 Before Ourian could react, the arrow started to glow and its speed increased ten fold. "Damn! A Sword Skill!" Ourian exclaimed, unable to dodge it in time and taking the full hit of the attack to the right shoulder. Pulling the arrow out, Ourian rushes at the fairy to close the distance and prevent her from firing more arrows at him, then slashes at her right arm, causing her to drop the bow. As the bow hit th ground, Ourian kicked it away. --- [/////// ] Ourian[Deceased] Male Fairy {ID: 15230 LD: 13} Obtained Fairy Wing: Speed Material [///// ] Female Fairy [//// ] Arrows remaining Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #12 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Taking advantage of the fairy being disarmed, Ourian takes the initiative. [iD: 15232] BD: 8 CD: 8 LD: 20 MD: 10 Slashing the fairy once in the stomach, he then proceeds to spin around and cut her once again in the chest, the force of the attack sending her flying towards where the first fairy fell. As Ourian proceeded towards her to finish her off, she rushes up at him with what appeared to be the sword that belonged to the other fairy and cuts him in the neck. --- [//// ] Ourian[Deceased] Male Fairy {ID: 15230 LD: 13} Obtained Fairy Wing: Speed Material [// ] Female Fairy [//// ] Arrows remaining Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #13 Share Posted May 3, 2015 As she sliced through his neck, she intantly turned around and attempted to stab him, the fury in her eyes as hot as any flame. [iD: 15233] BD: 4 CD: 11 (Battle Healing activated) LD: 5 MD: 10 (Oh that is such Bulls#$%! 3 MD:10s in a row?! Bite me, Perma Roller!) Unable to dodge at that close a range, Ourian takes the stab to the chest, coughing up blood and falling back to the ground. Swatting the fairy off of him, he felt the pain in his chest ease up slightly as his Battle Healing skill took effect. Slowly, Ourian gets up to his knees, as does the fairy. Both of them were on their last legs and one good hit would kill either one of them. --- [// ] Ourian[Deceased] Male Fairy {ID: 15230 LD: 13} Obtained Fairy Wing: Speed Material [// ] Female Fairy [//// ] Arrows remaining Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #14 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Staring at the fairy, Ourian saw a single tear run down her face as the fury in her eyes intensified. Unarmed, she runs for her bow. (Rearming attempt) [iD: 15236] MD: 7 Successful Ourian tried to grab her, but his injuries were catching up to him.

Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #15 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Before Ourian could make an effort to attack, the fairy pins him down with her arrow pointing straight into his face. Before she could release it, however, Ourian speaks to her, hoping that the rumors he heard about the Archer Fairy was real) "Please wait... I know you can understand me..." (Persuasion Check: Using LD as determinate factor) [iD: 15237] LD: 20 Successful The sudden change in her face proved to him that the rumors were, indeed, true. "I know I killed your friend... I'm truly sorry for that... but with all due respect, he did attack me when I meant no harm to you. I was just passing through...

Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #16 Share Posted May 3, 2015 She hesitated, and that was all he needed. Ourian swiftly grabbed the arrow out of her hand before she could react and reached for her arm to prevent her from grabbing another arrow and grabbed his sword with his free hand. [iD: 15238] BD: 7 CD: 2 LD: 6 MD: 8 (-1) = 7 "Sorry for this... but I'm just not ready to die just yet!" He told her as he swung his sword through her horizontally, cutting her in half. He could see the betrayal in her eyes as she dispersed into pixels, leaving Ourian feeling guilty. Grabbing the loot sphere, he opened it to find a Fairy Wing, a speed-type crafting material. Before continuing on, Ourian rests up, taking care not to fall asleep, as he pulled out a bottle of water and a piece of bread out of his inventory, helping himself to a short rest and snack. --- [// ] Ourian[Deceased] Male Fairy {ID: 15230 LD: 13} Obtained Fairy Wing: Speed Material[Deceased] Female Fairy {ID: 15238 LD: 6} No Loot obtained Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #17 Share Posted May 3, 2015 After Ourian finished his rest, he felt it was only right to take the weapons of the fairies and stick them in the ground as a makeshift memorial to two great opponents that he fought. Paying his respects, and apologizing for the deceit, he continues on to the Town of Flora. By nightfall, he makes it there and the first thing he does is look for the inn, a large tent about the size of a circus tent. As soon as he is settled in, he looks for the bath and washes all the blood from his battle and soaks in the warm water. --- {ID: 15230 LD: 13} Obtained Fairy Wing: Speed Material Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #18 Share Posted May 3, 2015 As he soaked in the water, he could feel his wounds starting to heal. "I almost died today..." Ourian sighed, looking up to see the tent's ceiling, which was moving slightly due to the wind brushing against it. "I really need to be more careful..." At this time, he decided to try and find a Mercenary NPC for hire in the Town of Flora as soon as he woke up, or at least a shop with some healing items... --- {ID: 15230 LD: 13} Obtained Fairy Wing: Speed Material Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #19 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Getting dressed into his common clothes, he walks over to his cot and starts to clean his sword, wiping it clean with a rag he found lying under the cot. Once he was finished, he walked up to the innkeeper. "Where might I find a Mercenary NPC or maybe a shop selling healing items? I could really use them." The innkeeper walks up to the counter. "Sadly, there aren't any shops here... As far as a Mercenary NPC... you might be able to find one, but they usually charge around 200 col for their services. Why, might I ask, are you looking for a Mercenary NPC?" Link to post Share on other sites
Ourian 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author #20 Share Posted May 3, 2015 "I'm looking for something... and I almost died today on my way over here... I figured I should try and be a little more prepared is all." Ourian explained, watching the innkeeper as her eyes widened. "You're not looking for the treasure, Elven Secrets, are you?" Ourian was surprised to hear the NPC react to his information like that. This must be the NPC I heard about... He thought. "Yes, actually. What can you tell me about it?"
