Shadowfall

(I wonder if I can introduce someone crazy here...)

[Blewcheese]

(Aemilian... Sounds familiar.)

"Greetings, Aemilian! Who is this bester friend of yours?"

[Battal]

Aemilian, thrilled at this response, does a small dance involving lots of arm waving. 

 

"Bester friend in big house!  He say bring anyone who want to come in."

 

(I've always imagined hired pigs as ridiculously ecstatic.)

[Blewcheese]

(Heppy peeg be heppy)

 

"Thank you." Pops smiles at the pig and heads towards the "big house".

[Battal]

Aemilian follows the group close behind as they make their way across the field.  Soon, they have reached the house.

[Will]

"I can't wait for when we open this door and Shadowfall is inside doing something casual. That's going to be the highlight of my day."

Dark Will elbows Will, and opens the door. to see Shadowfall casually reading a book.

[Battal]

The door does not budge, because if you're in an incredibly hostile enviroment and you have a door, you're probably gonna keep it locked.  Aemilian happily motioned for will to step aside, then knocked on the door.  After a few moments, a porthole in the door slid open, and a single eye looked out of it.  The window slid shut again, and after a bit of clunking on the other end, the door opened.  A somewhat portly man stood in the doorway, a bright smile on his face.

 

"Hello there, travelers!" He said in a friendly voice.  "What brings you to my humble estate?"

[Blewcheese]

"Hello! We were drawn here by the sound of someone chopping trees. Please, call me Pops." He extended his hand for a handshake.

[Battal]

The man accepts the hand.  "My name is Baron Taggart.  Welcome to Pertinax Estates!"

 

He waves his arm with a grand flourish at the field.

[Blewcheese]

"It is quite a beautiful place... However, we have not come to discuss you estate, unfortunately." Pops' expression goes grim. "Have you heard of a being known as Shadowfall?"

[Battal]

"Nope, never heard of him."  He says, his cheerfulness never wavering.  "Come on, I'll show you around!"

 

He ushered the group inside.  The entrance hall was 2 stories high, ringed with balconies.  The ceiling was glass.  Various bits of furniture were laid across the room.

[Blewcheese]

Pops sighed inwardly, deciding not to rush into the issue. "My... What an amazing residence! How did you get all of the materials for this?"

[Battal]

"Well, it all started when I hired a few pigs to do some mundane tasks for me."  Taggard began, leading the group down a wide corridor.  "Eventually, I earned their king's trust.  Now, they all work for me."

 

He led them past a door marked "Infirmary" and down another corridor.

 

"You're not the only ones here.  We have two other visitors as well."

[Blewcheese]

Pops thought a moment. "Where are these people? May we see them?"

[Percival]

(Wait, the new character that I made was never accepted....)

[Battal]

Taggard nodded.  "One of them is in the infirmary.  No visitors.  The other is a little bit..."

 

He whirled his finger around his head.

 

"But here, we don't worry about it too much.  It would be cruel to have all this and not allow some people to share it.  We're all on the same boat."  He added with a chuckle.

 

"Let's see the treasure chamber, first."

 

(Wait, I didn't?  Oop.  Accepted.  Try to stay alive longer this time.)

Pops nodded. "Yes, alright."

[Battal]

"Right this way."  Taggard says, leading them back to the entrance hall.  After going through a door at the far end of the room, the group finds themselves in an enormous chamber full of artifacts.  The room contains everything from a lump of pulsating black liquid in a jar, to a chunk of ancient wall much like the group saw in the Ruins.  In the center of the room is a small glowing sphere hewn from lapis lazuli, a myriad of colors spinning like a tiny universe within.

(Oh, so you made an introduction already.

 

 

Cool.)

(I can just jump right in, right?

 

Name: Ayasha

Age: Kind of young, but not a child. Exact age is not known, but they actually quite old. They are eternally young.

Personality: Kind, but gets angry easily. is always honest and cannot tell a lie, even if its for her friends.

Abilties: Two forms, Red Hound and Wolf. Red Hound doesnt burst into flames when killed like normal, and is weaker then a average red hound, but they catch on fire (It doesnt really hurt them, but the angrier they are, the bigger the fire, it can be big enough to cause self-injury, if caused by being badly injured, the fire is medium in size) when badly injured (read: The flames usually go out quick and are weaker then normal flames) or she becomes angry enough. The wolf form can walk on two legs, but runs faster on all fours anyways. They have sharp claws and teeth, and can run pretty fast, and is pretty agile too. but that is pretty much all they can do in this form. They can run for a long time, though. They cannot change forms at will usually. (It is very rare and they must be focused to the max)

 

The following events cause a form change:

Full moon: Changes to the opposite form, and makes them feral for a few hours.

Mood: Anger can cause red hound form, being very calm will turn them into wolf form.

Time of day: Turns into wolf as soon as night starts, if already at wolf form, turns feral for a few minutes. Nighttime does not restrict changing to the other form.

 

Appearance: In Red hound form, they look like any other red hound. In Wolf Form, they have mostly greyish fur with white fur on her ears and tail. You already know they have sharp teeth and claws. They are about 5 feet tall in wolf form when standing on two legs.

Backstory: Generally what you would expect, cursed and tricked by maxwell. They have been here ever since that day. There is actually a lot more to it then that, but you can figure that out only in-character. (I can change this and tell you the whole thing if you want.)

Notes: In Red Hound form, cannot speak english at all. Can sometimes speak english in wolf form but not always.

When not speaking english, it sounds like barks and howls and stuff like that.

 

Tell me if i need to adjust it a bit.)

(Sounds good.  Accepted.)

[Strangerdanger101]

(Sounds good.  Accepted.)

 

(I may have forgotten to mention this, but they are female if you are wondering. Also, how do you want me to start, basically where and stuff like that?)

(To avoid confusion, ' is thinking and " is talking)
 

Deep in the forests, (assuming there are forests, if not, just replace the word "forests" with something) Ayasha runs around, howling and barking in her Wolf form. She smells someone nearby... and goes to investigate. She attempts to be sneaky, but makes some loud noises on the way. She hides behind the nearest object, even if she probably can't see them, she can hear them at least if they say anything.

 

(Basically they are tracking down the most recent posting roleplayers and are pretty much in the same "room" as them now)
