Of Vile Darkness

[linnorm]

Ralam Human Rogue 5 / Assassin 7

Ralam raises an eyebrow at the veiled warning (threat?) "Indeed, my good man, indeed. You may deposit my payment in the usual location. Now, if there is no further business," Ralam stands "I will be on my way."

*Ralam pauses for a moment to make sure the conversation is over and then leaves for home. After a good night's sleep Ralam entertains himself with Renna before going to visit Lady Arvnos for brunch.*

OOC: I'm assuming that the guild has an arrangement with a moneychanger or two for this sort of thing and that as an upper-level operative Ralam has access to an account. If this won't work let me know and I can work something else out.

 

[Brother Shatterstone]

Loviana: Half-Nymph/Female (Rogue/Corruptor/Bondblade)

*Loviana sets stunned and obviously uncertain what to do with the commotion but try as she might she cannot think of a way to save her plan and she watches in some horror as any hope of is lost as the knight disappears.*

Realizing she still has a part to play she looks out to the hooligans with a confused and troubled yet innocent look, “What did you do to my heroic protector…?”

 

[Rybaer]

Lord Torr Stormrider - human weretiger/rogue/fighter

"Now, if I'm not mistaken you have a purse to collect. Two thousand in one hundred gold trade bars, delivered to a place convienient for you. We'll wait a week to be sure that our plot is going well... then I'll have a choice of domestic staff for you."

*Torr gives Ralam a curt nod as the assassin takes his leave.*

"Please pass along my thanks to the Butterfly for the opportunity to work for him," Torr says to Hasord as he rises to leave. "It is refreshing to work for someone who recognizes professionalism and rewards it accordingly.

"You can have my payment delivered to my residence," he says. "And if you have any other work that suits my...skill set...feel free to contact me."

*Torr leaves, taking a circuitous route back to his house. While he walks, he contemplates Hasord's words...'we'll wait a week to be sure that our plot is going well.' When he took the job, he had never given much consideration for why the Butterfly would want the captain killed. Of course, it makes sense that it would be part of a larger scheme. Torr is curious, but decides that for now such answers might turn him into a liability rather than an asset to the Butterfly.*

 

[Wrahn]

Aekir looks at the pretty girl, he moves forward while he draws the black glove off his hand. His fingers are actually bony blades past the first joints, his hands are cut with runes that have never healed. His dark eyes hold no passion, in truth they hold nothing as he brings back his arm and brings his claw slashing down at the prone girl.

[ooc: Move forward, “drawing” weapon as part of a move equivalent action. Standard action, attack +22 Melee damage 1d6 +12, + 1 energy drain, +1 Vile]

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

*Loviana, the rough-skinned man slashes at you, opening a gash on your arm and seemingly into your soul as well. You feel cold and drained from his touch. Ssessarina gets to her feet, swaying slightly.*

"Get out of here, get me out of here!" she hisses.

OOC - Loviana, take 15 points of regular damage, one vile damage, and one negative level.
Initiative
Aekir - 23
Loviana - 20
Ssessarina - 18

 

[Wrahn]

[Assuming Aekir has gone this round (i.e. attack on Loviana was not a suprise)]

*Aekir glances back momentarily at Ssessarina words, opening a chance to sneak attack or play dead*

 

[Brother Shatterstone]

Loviana: Half-Nymph/Female (Rogue/Corruptor/Bondblade)

Loviana shrieks in rage as her face sneers in anger, “You filthy scum! That was unneeded and you should pay dearly for that but listen to your partner.”

*Her Scourge appears out of thin air and she swings it as viscously as she can.*

“I’m obviously not what you think I am.”

OOC: Full round of attacks. After looking, though quickly, I think it’s safe to assume she has her gloves, Skada, Ring of Mind shielding, and most of her other stuff isn’t combative so it matters not. She does not have her armor on/

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

*Aekir, as you turn back to Ssessarina, your meek victim becomes a snarling hellcat. Pulling a vicious scourge from the air as your back is turned, she lashes you low, missing your armor and opening up several bleeding gashes in your side.*

Yes... Skada whispers in her mind, a wave of unholy joy flooding Loviana as the scourge strikes home.

[OOC - Loviana hit twice, one crit, for a total of 36 points of damage. Skada gains 2 blood points]

 

[Wrahn]

[OOC: Sorry, no choice at this point]

Aekir turns back, realizing there is no safe way to retreat from the long weapon, he pulls back with both hands and attacks.

[ooc: Full attack: +20/+20*/+15/+15*/+10 1d6 +12 + 1 Vile, + 1 Eneregy drain level, * = offhand damage 1d6 + 8 + 1 Vile + 1 Energy drain level, don't forget energy drain subtracts from a persons chance to hit, all saves and ability checks, did you get her sneak attack damage in there?]

[ooc: HP 110, AC 24]

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

*Aekir claws visciously at Loviana, opening huge gashes and drawing out shards of her soul.*

[OOC - Ouch. Loviana takes 68 points of regular damage, 5 points of Vile damage, and five more negative levels. Owie. Care to play dead Bro?]
