For this game I would like actions to be between *asterisks*, thoughts to be in italics, and words to be in "quotes." Occasionally I will put information for a single player or words in a language that only certain people know in spoiler text. So please read the entire post including the OOC information at the bottom before highlighting any spoiler text. If you wish to use colors for certain things, go ahead, but be sure to include the thing above. Also, when in doubt, go for the lighter color.
For combat, please include any conditional modifiers at the end in the OOC.

[Prologue]
*Achamian stepped back from entrance to the alley, It's not possible, not here, not now. His mind screamed. How could the Consult have infiltrated Sumna, the City of the Tusk, home of the Shriah and the Thousand Temples. This just can't be happening. Being a spy for the Mandate, he was always on the look out for the Consult, but there hadn't been any sign of them in 2000 years ~ if the records could be trusted. But there was no denying that the creature he had just seen must have been of the Consult.*
*It had stood there, stooped over a body, blood splattered every where in the darkened alley. It's hunched form, spines bristling along its back, had turned it's head slowly looking directly at him. It's lips peeled back revealing long sharp teeth the length of daggers dripping with a black ichor. Dark blood covered it's dark fur almost completely. He ran then, he ran because his life depended on it. He knew with a frightening certainty that the creature had seen his aura. That it knew he was among the Schoolmen of the Great Schools.*
*As soon as he had reached the next alley across the marketplace he ducked inside chanting as quietly as he could, his heavy breathing punctuating the arcane syllables. As his vision began to blur, the wavering shadow of his spell wisking him out of harms way, he looked back towards the crowds of the market. There unphased by the people surging around it, stood a dark figure, tall in it's dark red cloak. Those eyes, those sheer black eyes, just as he had seen in his dreams ever since joining the Order. His scream was drowned out as the spell he weaved took him far away to the safety of his sanctum.*
*He had much to report to the order, not only the Consult, but also the Shriah and his Holy War. He had seen his friend Jorhian, a high placed templar in the Thousand Temples, only yesterday. His friend, once his pupil, had confirmed what everyone was talking about. The Shriah did intent to declare a Holy War and on the morrow he would declare against whom the People of the Tusk would march. As his mind raced through the possibilities something slowly dawned on him, he knew the body that had lain in the alleyway, it had been Jorhian.*
Chapter 1, the River's Wish Inn
*Gespeth ordered another drink from the rather attractive looking serving girl. She had introduced herself as Mary when she had brought his first flagon of ale. While waiting for his second he pondered what had brought him to this small tavern on the banks of the Shaul River. As a member of the Mysunsai School, he was often looking for paying work a mercenary mage for hire.*
*He looked around at the other patrons sizing them up to see if any might provide him with employment. In one corner sat a small halfling, surrounded by dogs, 5 of them lay at his feet. He looked like he had seen many battles, with his slightly unkept look and heavy equipment lying at his side. At another table a young man was dressed in simple unadorned clothing of black and green, sporting black hair. He was sitting quietly by himself, quite at home eating alone.*
*At another table a smaller man sat talking with a woman. The man was dressed in a loose hooded green robe with a large golden oak embroidered into the back. As Gespeth watched the man lowered his hood, revealing a pair of slightly pointed ears. An elf then? Perhaps. Not many of them around these parts. But in Gespeth's training he had met a couple, friends of his mentor. The woman was tall and blond, her straight hair falling over her fine black mail. She had a very large sword resting against the back of her chair and by the look of her she definitely knew how to use it.*
*Just then two people entered the inn, sunlight shining through the door as they opened the door. The tall man dressed in simple robes and carrying a large staff looked a little out of place in a building like this one, but the small halfling looked happy to be there. They were talking jovially as the entered, looking around for a place to sit. Having delivered your ale while you were watching those around, Mary has walked up to the two newcomers.*
"Welcome, Mahe and Folco, glad to see the two of you again. What brings you out to the eaves of the Glimmerwood?" Mary said to the man and the halfling.
[ooc: there we go everyone is in the inn. I have started the introduction from Gespeth's point of view just as an angle. Feel free to rp out any introductions you with to make.]
