[QUOTE="talien, post: 5014253, member: 3285"] [b]Isles of the Damned: Part 4d – Crystal Lake Island[/b] Moab’s wizard pointed his staff at Sebastian, unleashing a bolt of lightning. The dark-kin twisted, barely avoiding the bolt. Sebastian strafed by with a blast of freezing cold, covering the Naoke in rime. Friends and foes alike dove to the side. Vlad locked blades with an elorii with dusky gray skin and white hair. “You’re no match for my power, human dog!” he snarled. They separated and the elorii pointed his jeweled blade at Vlad. Flames exploded out of the tip of the sword. Vlad held up Grungronazharr and the fire washed over him. “What?” shouted the elorii. “Impossible!” It was the last words he got out as Vlad thrust his blade through the elorii’s torso. Beldin blocked the vicious hack of a falchion from a hulk of a man with straight black hair. He shouted with every strike, spittle flying from his lips. A tough-looking woman with short blonde hair stood in the center of it all, sending supplications to Leviathan. “Another cultist of Leviathan,” sighed Kham. “Just what we need.” A twisted gnome with a red Mohawk tumbled up to him, crossbow at the ready. “Wait a minute…” said the gnome. “I remember you! You’re that idiot I tried to kill in Freeport!” Kham tried to track the gnome with the Leviathan Pistol. “Funny, you don’t ring a bell.” “Rooster Tumblefoot! You don’t remember me? You were blitzed out of your mind on Ghoul Juice when that flapping idiot up there,” he jabbed a thumb in Sebastian’s direction, “melted me into slag!” “Nope, don’t remember you.” The gnome fired his crossbow but it went wide. “What? Aren’t you surprised I’m still alive?” Kham kept tracking him with the pistol. “Not really.” “Don’t you see how amazingly powerful Moab’s magic is?” The gnome was becoming visibly frustrated. He drew his short sword and advanced on Kham. “I mean, I was his one success with the Leviathan Spyglass…I managed to escape this crazy place! Then when I nearly died, it drew me back. Moab saved me from the brink of death.” Rooster lunged with his blade, but Kham blurred sideways out of his field of view. “Skin grafts take a LONG time! A lot of people died so I could live.” The gnome looked around. “You sure you don’t remember me?” Kham was standing on the rigging above him. Kham’s eyes flashed from behind his lenses. Rooster’s eyes rolled in his head. He collapsed to the deck, drool dripping from his slack jaw, his brain smashed from Kham's psychic attack. “Sorry, nothing’s coming to mind.” Kham landed next to him and kicked Rooster’s dying body overboard. “Perhaps Gaspar can help you with that!” shouted the older wizard, who was fond of repeating his own name. Kham whirled and flew upwards, hovering over the deck. “Oh I don’t think…” The val jerked as if he had been slapped. He hung limply in the air, a marionette abandoned by its owner. It was a fleeting victory. The focus on Kham distracted Gaspar long enough so that Sebastian got behind him. Ice and sleet covered him, transforming the older wizard into an ice sculpture. “You’ll pay for that!” shouted the priestess. “[FONT="Impact"]Leviathan, make these unbelievers pay for their transgressions![/FONT]” She pointed at Sebastian and a gout of flames blasted down upon the dark-kin, dunking him into the ocean. Seconds later, Grungronazharr jutted from the priestess’ torso. She looked down in shock. Vlad kicked the woman off of his blade. Beldin was doing the same with the corpse of the barbarian that attacked him. “Is that all of them?” asked Vlad. “Not quite,” hissed a voice from everywhere and nowhere. “You have yet to deal with me.” [/QUOTE]
