[QUOTE="Archon Basileus, post: 7531172, member: 6855545"] [B]EVERYONE[/B] Both creatures sniff the air around them, squatting and moving forward slowly, cautiously. They stop dead on their tracks as the snirfveblin salutes them. They sniff the air once more, bending their strange, deformed heads to do so. [COLOR="#A52A2A"]"They're on to us..."[/COLOR] - the first one says to the second, whispering. [COLOR="#A52A2A"]"Your fault, rookie" [/COLOR]- the other one answers. [COLOR="#800000"]"I played quiet."[/COLOR] [COLOR="#800000"]"You're talking. We never talk. No matter how low." [/COLOR] [COLOR="#800000"]"No point in silence now." [/COLOR] [COLOR="#800000"]"Let me do the talking, rookie."[/COLOR] The second one moves forward, closely followed by the first one. He clicks his tongue and clacks his teeth, as if warning the creatures in the adjacent room of the heroes' presence. As he approaches, the second creature rises to its feet, stepping a good 30' from Aanzu and Thulwar. [COLOR="#800000"]"I smell scales from under the sun, and feet from under the earth. Dust from below and sand from the winds! Strange combination, indeed!"[/COLOR] - standing, the creature looks a lot like an orc, but the eyes are completely blue. The creature hunches, one arm a lot larger than the other, and it drools a bit as it speaks, given the asymmetric mouth filled with twisted fangs. Only the hips are covered by some rough kind of leather, and from it hangs an old shortsword, clearly made by human hands - the siege of Wellington decorates the hilt. [COLOR="#800000"]"I smell other things... I... *sniff* smell... An iron golem.... *sniff-sniff* .... An anointed man.... *sniff-sniff-sniff* ...Mmmm, cursed flesh! And..."[/COLOR] - his face suddenly lights up - [COLOR="#800000"]"...A Teraphim!"[/COLOR] - a cruel smile crosses the creature's face, but it's filled with cunning.
