Sorry, I'll fix it. I just kinda get rolling and forget.

Aerozord · 08-25-2006, 12:05 PM

thats fine

oh and so you know, AB is right about how the swords feed. In fact when you inflict a mortal wound its not the wound that kills the person but that the swords feeds off them. It has to be a mortal wound anyways so they would die reguardless. Just saying that the moment that deadly wound is inflicted the weapon begins draining.

[edit] If the blade leaves the body during a feeding, the feeding will continue untill they are completely drained. I will use sword of blood as an example. If you stabbed someone in the heart and immediately took it out, the blood would be pulled out of the body and be absorbed into the blade

Ah, so it's like the Soul Reaver's material form. Rockin'.

I was thinking about the various aspects of the swords that would effect their development. Like, the darkness sword could gain more power per kill from murderers, molesters, sadistic scumbags and such while the light sword gains more power from the killing of priests (only the ones that don't touch the alter boys), nuns, cardinals, and the like. Blood? Well, the bigger the person, the more blood they got, right? The life sword can drain more from olympic atheletes and other particularly vivacious stereotypes, like the overachieving youth. And the soul sword...well, I would guess creatures with more powerful souls would offer better rewards, but will we encounter demons and vampires in the roleplay?

Eh, that's just some silly idea I had.

Aerozord · 08-25-2006, 01:23 PM

AB you are more or less correct. I just didn't mention it out of fear it would complicate things. Actually sword of souls actually drains from all animals (I personally think my dog has a soul). Sword of life gets the least but it can drain from the most. You can even suck energy from a tree. But try not to think about it during RP, I will just let you know if you gain a new power. After all its abit unlikely your characters would realize how exactly these things work.

As for demons... well you cant. I can though. But if you PM me requesting like a vampiric informant or something then I might allow it. But I wont let you create enemy NPCs since I play the Creator and he would be the one sending things after you.

Whale Biologist, please direct all out of character queries and other things to this thread.

Now if you had read the first post in the thread, you would know why we're all together in a museum and forced to cut our way out to safety. We found out the creator's real life persona and intruded into his museum to confront him, but he was simply baiting a trap for us and we fell for it in an attempt to possibly slay the creator early. Now we're surrounded by SWAT, the military, and the police who are mostly there to keep the civilians away from the scene.

WB is out by his own request, but I am pretty sure we have a replacement that is working on a profile. For now just continue the RP, might want to ease up on posting abit though. Like once a day, untill he is signed up

GARUD · 08-28-2006, 09:37 AM

Just cause y'all want me...

Name: Daren Charoda
Age: 35ish
Gender: Male
Appearance: He has black hair with strange white eyes. His hair hides most of his face, and runs down long over his back. He is a very heavy-set man, broad in every sense of the word.
Bio: Daren is a mysterious person. Very mysterious. He has no known origins, but there have been rumours... most of the battles over the middle ages that have been won with very few troops was because of him... and his mysterious sword. Not a single soul knows how he started.
(for player knowledge only)
Daren started off a blacksmith's son, learning the tools of the trade from his father. He lived on a group farm, with workers and cooks also living on the site. Life was peaceful.

One day, when Daren was 18, a merchant came to the farm and sold them a sword made out of a mysterious metal. The head farmer gave it to the blacksmith and told him to melt it down. The blacksmith did try to do it, but no matter how hot he put it, it would not melt. Finally, he gave up and went over to tell the head farmer to sell it at the markets. Daren took this opportunity to try his own hand at it. He picked up the sword... and woke up far away, covered in blood. Realising what had happened, he panicked and ran away. Every time he asked for help from somebody though, they recognised the sword and attacked. He would use his fists to beat them down to spare them.

As time went on, he became more feared, but he never seemed to age. He was always his own man, although rarely giving in to the sword. He became bitter. Very bitter. He lost the will to life but gained a hunger to fight. He searched around the globe trying to find that opponent, but after time, he never found it, becoming arrogant and outcasting himself for a while. During that time, he harnessed his natural strength and started to train his body. The stronger he got over time, the more punishment he could withstand. His arms became very muscular, more-so that he started off with. He also seemed far more disciplined after all the training, despite being so arrogant.

He faded into history... during that time he found out about who created the sword. He decided that he had two reasons to pursue that person. To find the ultimate fight, and to kill the person who tainted him so long ago.

Sword: Light
Sword Name: Dalthalagus
Other Weapons: His fists

If it needs more work, just let me know, alright?

Aerozord · 08-28-2006, 11:49 AM

it will do just fine.

[edit] PS you guys could have made it through the military lines, but it would have required alot of killing with your swords. Though by 'with your swords' I mean giving in to the desire to kill. More or less going berserker

Astral Harmony · 08-28-2006, 01:25 PM

When I read SWAT and military, I was thinking attack choppers and jeeps with mounted machineguns, guys with rocket launchers and flashbangs and attack dogs and automatic shotguns and sharks with lazer beams attached to their heads and I didn't think we were quite up to par with being a Devil King on an endless fury drive.

Either way, Lafayelle would opt for a cleaner getaway then cutting through people who're doing the right thing.

Aerozord · 08-28-2006, 01:39 PM

well more or less thats all true, but you aren't fighting the entire military. Tanks and choppers are there mainly for intimidation. They know your heavily armored and are being prepared.

Besides I meant all of you combined cutting a hole in their defences to pass. Trick would have been catching them off guard before they realize whats wrong. Remember military is just support, in the US you always try to take the suspect(s) alive and only use lethal force as a last resort. They think your normal humans with military grade weapons, not enhanced humans with demon swords.

But dont get me wrong, I highly doubt one or two of you could escape that way. It would take all five.
