NPF Avatars: Because They All Hate Me

[Mesden]

"Why slime dragons? Why not your regular fire breathing super dragon? Them I can handle. Nooooooo, it has to be the raunchy dragon. What am I supposed to do? Gag at it to death? Hold my nose till it gives up? Hitting it with my sword would screw me up in tons of ways. First I would get closer to the smell. Then my nice pretty sword would get gunk on it and the smell would never come out. Why slime dragons?" she thought to herself.
"You guys take this one." I said in a nose holding nasely voice.

[Aerozord]

The kitty walked up in front of them. "All I can really do is punch, they can't hurt me but I can't hurt them either." Within seconds he had transformed. "I can play defence, but if you need a decoy, well I can tick them off pretty bad"

"Yeah. You go for that. We're backing you up all the way."

[Bailey]

Ilgivan pulled a large hardhat out of his bag. Atop the hardhat was a sign saying "all dragons suck ass"

"Catch!" He said, tossing it to Aerozord.

He began rummaging through his bag again, looking for some sort of stomach medice. After all, these things were acid, so...

After three socks, none of which matched, a bag of interesting pebbles, those damnable fusion earrings, a bowling ball, and an empty glass bottle, he found a large quantity of extremely spicy peppers.

"Eh, it's a base, it'll do to take care of the acid"

With that he began lobbing the peppers one by one into the slime dragons.

Seeing Kitty fall, MT quickly rushed to her aid... and gagged as the stench hit him as well. Holding his breath as best he could, he figured that dispatching the slime dragons as quickly as possible was the best way to go. As he looked around, he noticed a few others attacking the foul creatures with fire, and decided to follow suit. He drew a Red Fang from his bag and threw it in the general direction of the dragons. Mid-flight, the weapon exploded into lines of flame that traveled the floor and walls, roasting and scorching anything they touched.
In an effort to combat the stench, MT took off his headband, unfolded it, and covered his mouth and nose tightly. It helped only a little, but it was enough that he could breathe without feeling ill.

[GARUD]

Garud had waited at the bathroom, as he was going to be the last to leave. However, he was caught by a mod, and took a scolding for hanging around in a girls bathroom. Luckily, they decided not to touch his rep, and let the demon slayer off with a warning.

Proceeding down the passage, Garud saw the bodies of imps and bats, lying in contorted ositions, obviously dead. Fllowing a trail of destruction, he headed towards his comrades, and the sounds of battle. There was also an overpowering stench.

Stepping out, he saw what looked like colliod dragons. Colloid dragons made entirely out of mucus or something. Whatever the case, he decided to step in and help out his comrades. Swnging his staff like no tomorrow, he bashed through three spiders, and showered a fourth with ice shrapnel. Looking around he yelled "Is everyone alright?"

[Rhiya Ravenwing]

What Toasty had said was utterly incorrect. Slime dragons, were, in effect, not acid-based. In fact, if he were to look carefully, he would notice salt crystalizing upon the body part where he contacted the dustified Slime dragon. They were, in fact, an unholy combination of toxic acid AND base.

A fact that Newb did not catch on. Once the slime dragons realized that they were actually eyeless and any further visual assaults by Lumaes could be ignored deftly, they turned upon the bagged Newb and swallowed the peppers. There was a sickening sizzling noise as they absorbed the peppers into their slimy moulds.

One of them opened a gummy mouth, took a deep breath, and... exhaled.

The dragon's breath glowed like cartoony radiation, except for the fact that the very air molecules died in its advancing path. Parts of the fatal breath gas literally combusted into violet flame. The glowing cloud of fetid, noxious gas blew towards Newb.

~~

Rhiya plugged her nose with a wing and fought with her other, cleaving several Scavengers as they came close to SK.

What made it better, however, was a screaming slime dragon on fire that stumbled about blindly flailing at everything it touched, leaving a trail of hazardous fumes behind it. Some of this fume wafted towards Rhiya's direction.

Rhiya gagged once, stopped in her track of slashing down another Scavenger, and collapsed limply. One wing fwumped gently over SK, protecting her and hiding her from Scavenger eyes. She twitched once, then was still.

~~

Some of the spindly Scavengers approached Lumaes cautiously, before one leapt up to attack, sure that its natural immunity to magic and elements will protect it from the distorted organ's powers.

All of them were completely unaffected by Mammoth's fiery attack, but the Slime dragons milled about in nervousness.

[OOC: 3 Slime Dragons are ganging up on Newb, and there is still 7 bubbling around the place. 20 or so Scavengers are still around, and if you've defeated them all, the Cave imps and giant bats will move in to reclaim lost territory. RUSH RUSH RUSH!!! only not so much in postingness!!]

[Arhra]

Arhra hadn't played much of a part in the battle with the cave imps and bats. Creating and maintaining a dimensional portal for transporting what verged on a small army to a set of coordinates given by someone else was strenuous work. Fortunately no-one had come out the other side inside out or anything like that.

Normally he could only teleport to a place that he had been before, but thankfully Rhiya had sufficient details to allow the magical link between the two locations to form. It was fortunate that the point hadn't really come up, otherwise there might have been questions about how Arhra had teleported straight into the NPF girls' bathroom with such ease. Rhiya's butterflies hadn't come with coordinates after all.

Still, he had tried to regain his strength. Protecting himself from the imps and bats hadn't been too difficult - they'd all gone after the people making themselves large targets. Protecting himself from friendly fire had proven more taxing. Eventually, he'd encased himself in an impermeable sphere and rolled his way out.

Now there were slime beasts. Arhra knew how to deal with these though. Their sludgy, wet surrounds seemed to aid their healing. He summoned mana to him, baking the moisture out of the air and very ground. The slime draogn him front of him began to roar weakly as its surface blistered and cracked. Arhra exulted as he desiscated the area around him. This was power! His will made manifest on the fragile fabric of the -

Arhra jolted back in pain as a long talon-limb speared through him from behind. The large scavenger chittered as it slide another foot or so of it's bladed limb through him. Arhra felt blood welling up into his mouth as he stared dumbly at the blade protruding out of his chest. Everything began to fade to darkness.

The mage slumped lifelessly. The scavenger pried Arhra off its limb and then stabbed him again to make certain he was dead. Arhra very faintly began to glow...

[OmniShadow]

Just as suddenly as the horrid stench had overwhelmed some of the NPFers a hail of shadows in the shape of spears began to rain upon the spiders and slime dragons in front of Newb, the magic in the attack decimating the dragons attacks against Newb. From one of the many shadows in the cave what looked like a dark cloaked man appeared, two red glowing eyes could be seen under his hood, the rest was in complete darkness.

As the shadows that had rained at the monsters dispersed most of the spiders that had been hit seemed completely uninjured and some of the slime dragons had been scattered into piles of... slime. The man walked upp to the other forumites and when he reached the first of them pulled out a long sword from under his cloak and held it in a ready stance. "You seem to be in a little of a pinch, mind if I join in the fun?" OmniShadow said with his dark and echoing voice, although his tone revealed how excited he was about the fight.

OOC: He/I am a dark lord wannabe, if you have'nt figured it out yet :p

[Bailey]

Newb hurriedly pulled out objects from the bag.

essence launcher: laid to the side for later
potatoes: thrown off to the side
gas masks!

Newb began tossing gas masks of varying sizes and shapes to everbody.

When he was done, he picked up the essence launcher and began loading it with the fiery peppers.
