[QUOTE="Storminator, post: 4328958, member: 305"] Tarn immediately moves to aid the fallen man with Areon's might. Tarn Davin moves menacingly into the path of the oncoming priest. While he readies his battleaxe and clutches the Imp in his off hand. Davin "I intend to heal him if you will allow it." Tarn "Pah... Priests, I's hardly met one of yous to be trusted," Growls Davin as he grudgingly steps to the side.. "I doubt you'll be able ta help 'im but you can try. If you do anything to curse 'im wit yer blasted powers I swear I'll cleave you in two." Davin "Do you require assistance destroying that?" I ask with a nod at the demon and a hand on my hilt. Kirenne "She's a Paladin of Areon, you idiot." Argus growls at Davin. "I don't think we'll be cleavin' anybody any time soon. But, let's not dispatch the imp until we find out if he's useful in any way. I still got the containment ring if he looks like trouble." Argus turns to the priest and says "I'd be most appreciative if you could do anything for our companion. He's in kind of a bad way." With that, he backs away from Luthur open palmed, to give the priest room to work. He sidles up to Walter and says "Ya made it ya little :):):):)! I'm proud of ya. How the Hell did the Cat make it? He's a resourceful little bastard!" When he gets close enough to Walter that only he can hear, he whispers "Don't mention the book to these guys." Argus Tarn nods and moves forward to aid the fallen man. Tarn "I's been beatin, tortured, then murdered by so called Priests and Paladins of Aeron...then brought back ta serve them as a slave." yells Davin. "do what you will old man... an maybe they was different in yer time but what dealins I had wit em makes me want ta spit on em and their bloody god!" He then turns back to face the priest "now again, yous can try to help ta 'im but I swear on my dying breath I'll cut you in half if you do anything but heal him." Lastly he looks at the Paladin wanting to dispatch the imp. "This devil here may hold me brother’s life, it shall not be harmed... fer now." Davin Walter shoulders his way past Davin, giving him a look that clearly says, "dude, calm down," then immediately begins making small talk with the lady paladin. -Walter Roland watches all of this with amusement, but then raises his eyebrow. "Brought back, eh? Does that mean you're undead?" Roland Roland jokes with the axeman, but then takes a closer look at him. He’s tall, broad shouldered and trim. His ragged hair is shoulder length and the ends are pure white. His hands are huge; he’s palming the demon by the head, and the little monster’s wings and feet swing ineffectually in his grasp. The axe he swings around like a feather quill is large and deadly sharp. His armor is tailored leather without an inch of slack, and Roland recognizes it from John’s many stories of adventure – it’s a night suit, designed for stealth. Finally Roland takes in the many scars on his knuckles, the weapons strapped all over him, and the look in his eyes and realizes he’s looking at a stone cold killer. The dead brother, for he is dead, looks very similar; a little thinner, a touch shorter, no white in his hair. His armor is also a tailored night suit. One of the men walks up to Kirenne and introduces himself as Walter Arnaut, a wealthy aristocrat from Glimmergos. He sports a dueling sword and again, a tailored night suit. The last man wears a very nice, but more conventional, suit of chainmail. He has a buckler, like the Swordpoint paladins, strapped to his arm. All the men have small packs of gear on their backs which don’t appear to hinder their movements in the slightest. Tarn examines the brother, shrugs, shakes his head sadly, and steps back. Davin appraises the collection of priests. None have armor of any kind. Only the paladin lady sports a sword; the healer has a long heavy staff, and the guy making the “undead” crack has a decent sized stick. In addition there’s a silent, weather beaten older man in the back, also sans weapons, with a tiny pixie sitting on his shoulder. Almost as strange a collection as Davin’s… Walter notices there’s a bunch of dudes and a really hot chick. Her hair is auburn, long, and braided. She dresses head to toe in white, which is looking a little worn and a little dirty, but would clean up nicely. She has a bit of sunburn across her brow and she’s starting to freckle a little, like the lower classes do, and her eyes are brilliant green. Unfortunately, she seems a little distracted by Davin’s bad attitude and the evil little monster he’s toting around. Everyone stares at each other like a Black Swamp standoff… Actions? DM Out "My apologies, but this man is beyond my ability to help. Do any of the rest of your group require aid?" Tarn scans the rest of the motley bunch looking for injuries in need of tending. Quite an unexpected meeting in the middle of faeryland, but then this place has been pretty unconventional so far ..... Tarn "That's the word from all of ya? Nothin' any of ya can do?" asks Argus.

I bow my head for a moment for the fallen. And a moment more for all the fallen before him. This long fight has claimed many. Kirenne Davin begins to securely bind the demon well beyond what is necessary brooding all the while. Davin Argus picks up Luthur and carries him away from the edge of the pond, signaling to Davin to join him while Walter occupies the lady and her friends.
