The Escapist Avatar Adventure: An Open RP (Now Re-Opened!)

You really should quote.

Kud
Location: Rising Dawn, Armory.
Time: Early morning.

Grabbing the short-sword with both of her hand, Kud could clearly see that the sword's design was not human. It was forged by the elves and on the blade the name "Ivory Song" was carved in but in the eleven runes which the girl could not speak.

Spoiler: The Eleven Shortsword called Ivory Song

Kud pulled the weapon out of it's carrier and the moonlight glittered on the blade, outlining it's shape and curves.
"Ooh, this is different." She said swinging it once, it had the weight of a heavy stack of silver plates. Noticing the introduction from the elven girl, Kud turned back to her, "Oh I'm Kudryavka Noumi... nice to meet you." She said with a smile and bowed to the girl. "But just call me Kud... everyone does." She laughed softly.

Looking upon the runes on the blade she looked towards the young elven girl. "Umm... what does this say?" She said pointing to the runes. As I said before it held the words "Ivory Song" on it.

Devon approached the kid and put a hand on his shoulder. "Hey, you're not going to get anywhere just looking at this. Mind if I help you get this baby up?" He looked up at the sky, noting the very faint breeze."Now, even with this, it's gonna be hard if you just sit here. After all, it's not like that's gonna start flying by itself."

Unnoticed to all but Lucifer, the wind seemed to flow around the two.

Tajuh downed a fourth of the bottle and nodded. "At this point, I'd be surprised if there weren't any traps in this temple. It's just how this type of thing usually goes. Still, with what we're up against, it'll be good training for the rest of the newer entries on the ship if nothing else. Name's Tajuh."

Slindis watched this human continue to talk to Teri. If nothing, he had confidence for someone that had been on the business end of a Fire Elemental and lived. [color=c20000]"Jake, you realize that she still has to recover, correct? Please, allow her to do so."[/color] She wasn't angry with the man, but the young author needed her rest.

Kud

Time: Early morning.

Melethia looked the blade over. "Hmm, made of mithril to make it lighter, well balanced, and it's called Ivory Song. Kinda full of themselves if ya ask me. If it's gonna be used, why etch a name into it?" She laughed before handing the girl the blade. "Ya know, if you really wanted, I could try helping ya a bit, but you don't really look like you'd be that good at it." of course, this statement lost a bit of its impact considering who it was coming from.

Klaara shook her head and placed her hand heavily on the table, "You misunderstand far too much Mr. Nguyen," she held her head in the wake of the New Year celebration, "I want to bring him back, so I don't have to run around as a Writer anymore. I'm tired, and I long for home."

She turned away and watched the night sky, "I also doubt my professors will allow me another week of grieving leave. I can only stretch the 'my brother died' buffer so long."

Kyre smiled and buried herself in Kurumu, forcing the Succubus to embrace her, "If you say so Kurumu, I won't taste anyone but Sir Edward. I swear upon my heart and upon the heart of the great tree." The young anti-mage was very hot to the touch, as if her insides were ablaze with flame.

"How do you suggest that I be cleaned," she whispered into kurumu's bosom, "perhaps by you?"

Ku found BlackHarte standing next to Nessaj and Armageddon, in his hand he held a small orange flame.

[color=dark orange]"This is the shard you asked for,"[/color] the Chaos Knight said as he brushed Armageddon's fiery mane with the flip side of his cudgel, [color=dark orange]"might I inquire what you need this for."[/color]

BlackHarte bowed deeply, "I am afraid that I do not know myself Lord Knight."

With that Nessaj noticed Ku and waved his heavy black gauntlet at her, [color=dark orange]"Knight Kurumu! It is nice to see you in this plane!"[/color] Armageddon neighed beside him and sat down.

"Master Kurono, do you need something?" BlackHarte asked nonchalantly.

Well I didn't receive messages before... but whatever. TO POSTING!

Kud & Melethia.
Location: Rising Dawn, Armory.
Time: 4 Am.

Looking at the shining blade, Kud briefly thought about the name and the song the blade sang from the swing. "I think it's a beautiful name. Something which was named for the original owner, this sword could of changed many, many owners until it ended up here." Kud softly smiled at it. "And I do want to learn how to use it... so I can protect..." She briefly muttered in an unconfident tone.

Kud wanted to protect her loved one which was sleeping in their room thanks to the stew. Maybe this blade will teach her to become stronger in a way she hasn't tried before in her life.

"I want to get this done as soon as possible..." she stirred her cup of water and dumped it into the seafood bowl, "for some reason I feel so tired..."

Undressed, Kyre's body had a strange color to it. Almost as if the air above her skin was glowing. Moreover, the scar upon the bridge of her nose began to bleed in the humidity of the bath. Kyre quickly slipped into the hot water and smiled to herself, inner thoughts running rampant with fantasies. Of denied childhood wants, and dark memories of her pampered life style in the gladiatorial rings.

---​

BlackHarte blinked, his collective consciousness was processing that possibility. Then he blinked, and the life returned to his body. "That is not beyond the realm of possibility," he ran his hands through his hair and pocketed the little burning flame, "if that is the case, it is more an issue of a soul attunement to Master Kurono than it is a physical or mental issue. That would explain why she has no other abnormalities."

He then started walking toward Ku and shrugged, "Yet at the same time, it shouldn't make her insatiable. It would only give her the same cravings Kurumu has, and young master is arguably a nymphomaniac when it comes down to it, so there shouldn't be an issue."

Jake turned incredulously to the Mark apparition. Rage was clear on his face.

"I have no troubles with bringing Sav back to life, AS LONG AS he knows the rules... As for you... You get that AI out now, or I'm coming for you after we're done fixing the AA and our screwups. Try me. Go be a fucking masochist someplace else, not near my life!"

 

[Sgt_Jakeman214]

Jake scoffed at the arrogance of the Author. "You know as well as I do that Jack is his own. He's kinda busy now with the death of New York, I'd expect. However, the Lord of Chaos is the real threat here. Nope, I don't want nothing to do with it. You just sort that AI out. I distrust full connectivity. And as long as Shaun gets what's coming to him, I don't care. Watch our backs mate, I still trust ya."

Lucifer and Devon:

While he did the stunts for the kid, Devon scowled at Mark's bad news. "Say whatever you want, all I will say due to the current company is that I am very opposed to that. Much more wouldn't be good for a kid to hear, and I don't want to deal with that can of worms."

Tajuh raised the now half-empty bottle in a toast. "Well met. When it comes to that temple, I'd let our trap specialist on board tackle most of that. Likely poison darts, ambushes, pits, bit it's what we gotta do. One hell of a way to start the new year, huh? You're supposta be around good friends, an' here we are getting shitfaced."

Awake, and ready to post.

Melethia looked the girl over and at the blade which didn't really seem to mesh well with the girl. "Okay, if you really want to. But if you are gonna use one, I gotta teach ya first. Using a sword's not like swinging around a metal twig, miss Silverhair. If ya want somethin a bit easier to use that can still help defend you and someone else, though, I can certainly try to find one of those."

After some time, she pulled out a large dagger and looked the blade over. "Hmm, it's not as ornate as that other blade, but it's pretty well made. And with the size, you could use this along with the other one."

Spoiler: Unnamed dagger

Melethia handed the blade to the silver-haired girl to see her opinion.

Mark, Lucifer and Devon:

The kite flying went on for quite some time, and the stunts performed by the kite started becoming somewhat elaborate. When the kid eventually became bored, Devon handed the kite over to the kid and kneeled down so that he was at eye level. "I'm glad that you ended up here, little guy. Look around long enough and you'll find the rest of your family. So, what's your name?"

Tajuh laughed at the equally drunken man. "Look, as soon as this is done, I'm givin up control of the ship anyway. So if ya want to kill me, you're gonna have to do it soon. An' I'd rather be part of a ship of fools than a champion of a massacre. Also, if ya do off me, let my soul go. Probably plenty'a people waitin for me when I do, an' I'm not gonna keep 'em waitin."

David West
After what seemed like forever, the horror that was Twilight was finally over.
David lifted the remote and turned off the TV, unsure of what he just saw.
"....Well.....I don't see what the fuss is about....What about you Elena?" He asked, preparing excuses in case she wanted to watch the other films.

Rugal
After much trail and error, Rugal finally gave in, he wasn't going to figure out how to do Lay on Hands.
Somewhat disappointed, he left his quarters and made his way to the bridge, wondering what was taking them so long to reach the temple.

Training Room

Caim gritted his teeth as he adjusted his grip on the greatsword; and charged after the mechanical monolith. Jumping in the air after a hail of bullets tore at his feet; he brought the sword down on one of the machine's turrets. The impact and weight of the enormous blade was too much; and the arm ripped away with a brutal crunch. As Caim pulled his blade from the bit of wreckage, he called to Fionn,

"One more and it's down! Get to it!"

Med Bay, before Mark's arrival

Teri sniffed a little, and a tinkling laugh emitted from the Tablet.

"Did you just quote..?"

"Yes."

Another sniffle, and she said,

"So... You really mean that? The, believing in me stuff? Even after I probably smell like hell, cry like a idiot and constantly forget my God loves me?"

The other Author nodded solemnly, his eyes not breaking contact. "Yup. I've got your back, and you've mine, right?"

After rubbing her eyes, Teri nodded,

"Yeah.. Okay. I got your back."

Of course, that didn't stop the girls eyes from leaking any more. Even when Mark appeared, the girl's face was still a wet mess. When the now-AI infected Author asked his question, her face turned from anguish to shock;

"You want to WHAT?! I.... I don't know Mark. I understand Klaara being sad but... Should we really try? In our world, Death was final. I mean; I suspect Jack wouldn't be too happy about a resurrection of someone who tried to kill his creator. I'll have to think about the ethics of this for a while; I cannot answer you now. Mark, please don't push this with me right now. I am not ready to do such things at the moment."

With that, the girl covered herself with the blanket, and Jake saw on the screen "[color=0E59E4]

Let me know when he is gone. I do not want to speak of this right now.

"Viscus? Hmn... Very well. Let us go then. The sooner this is done, the better; right?"

After several minutes of walking, Inuart was introduced to Viscus, Choosing to don his Armoured Robot Form for the sake of appearances.
[color=6c1504]"Inuart, this is Viscus, he was one who called for your recruitment."[/color] Bison said as the Machine stared at the Bard.

"There is no time for introductions. My Time on the Internet has given me insight to the workings of out Target: The US Army. Main Screen."

A large monitor blared on as it loaded up a massive map of the US with locations of major bases and installations.

"In order to attain maximum profit from this venture, we will need to terminate the competition. The US Army acquires most of it's weapons from private companies. AIM is one of them but have a smaller market share then the others, a result of our actions no doubt. You're Mission is to attack this Base here, It handles a large amount of the supply side of the Amry. Once in, you will grab a list of all the Private Companies supplying the Army. From there, I will arrange other teams to Terminate them. Once that is done, It will mean that the army would be broke and will have to contract to us, ensuring a massive profit turnover of over 1843%."

He explained as a informational animation gave Inuart the general gist of it in case he was unfamiliar with the workings of the military in their world.

Rugal
After some wandering about, Rugal decided to drop into the Medical Bay to see what progress was made on his eyes.
A knock on the door from his cane alerted the authors to his arrival.
"Good evening. Just decided to come in to see what state my eye is in. Hope I'm not interrupting anything...." He said, unaware of the madness going on with Mark's appearance and Teri's latest fainting.

Inuart nodded along with the instructions given, and was silently thankful for the infodump given to him. "So, even without magic, this world is still dependent upon war and technology. Nothing ever changes, does it?" He mused to himself, as he double checked his equipment. With a frown, he thought aloud, "I wonder if my arms are adequate with the times? I have a feeling I might be a tad bit outclassed."

Med Bay
Teri's head popped out from under the blanket when she heard Rugal's voice, curious about what the warlord wanted with them.

"Hello, Mr. Bernstein."

Her 'voice' echoed wearily;

"I would direct all medical questions to Ms. Slindis at the moment... I'm not, er.. at my best at this moment."

A wave of nausea hit her in the gut; and Teri gave a heavy sounding cough, having nothing more to expel from her stomach.

Training Room

"One more and it's down! Get to it!"

Fionn leaped in front of the machine, Sandy was fully loaded and his Sabre was in hand. He aimed the shotgun at the robot and with one hand, began firing, each shot stunting the Scorpion and pushing it back. He slowly closed in, firing continuously and preventing the robot from defending itself. He moved in for the kill, slashing at the robot's chest in an unexpectedly surgical manner, carving open the core of the machine and ripping out its innards.

He stood over the dead machine, looking over to Caim as he dusted off his hands. "Right, who fancies lunch?", the man grinned.

Bison let out a small chuckle in his throat.
[color=6c1504]"Viscus....The Serums..."[/color] He commanded, prompting Viscus to open up a compartment on his wrist.
It was a kind of storage unit containing two large Needles, One Green, One Red.

"I assume you met Dr. Wesker. These are his work. They are a pair of serums designed to mutate human DNA in a positive manner.
The green one is a virus that greatly increases the host's Strength, Speed and Durability. The effects are permanent unless a counter serum is ingested.
The red one is know as "X-Factor". It provides a short term boost similar to that of the green one, but far more powerful. Use it only in case of emergencies.
I'd advise taking the green one now."

He explained as he handed the pair to Inuart.

Med Bay
Rugal's somewhat friendly face darkened a little when he heard her cough.
"...I'll say. That doesn't sound very good at all..." He commented as he used his cane to slide over a chair where he though she was laying.
"Any reason for this onset? I'm hoping it's on contagious..." He added, completely unaware of everyone else around him.

AIM

"Oh. Well then, Er... Where do I..?"

A diagram appeared before him as Viscus read off a list of procedures in a bored tone, to which Inuart followed, albeit a bit clumsily. After a few missed pricks, Inuart was finally able to get the serum in his system. There was a pause for a moment; and Inuart gasped for breath as a burning sensation began to crawl through his skin.

"Gods above!"

Grabbing a railing next to him, he steadied himself as the feeling began to work it's way through his system. The intensity of it was surprising, to say the least, but as time passed for the next few moments, the feeling began to drop off, and, slowly, Inuart felt himself returning to normal... Or, at least, as normal as he thought. Taking a few more deep breaths, he let go of the iron bar; only to find it dented in his grip.

"Huh."

Turning to his comrades, he asked, "Is that normal for this serum?"

Training Room

Caim nodded at the suggestion, and looked over his comrade.

"It's good to see some competence on this ship. I like that. That being said, I think you and I have earned that meal."

He wiped a bit of grime off of his face, he asked,

"I am known as Caim. If we're going to be fighting together, I might as well have a moniker to acknowledge you by. So, your name?"

Med Bay

Rugal could sense a noticable fluctuation in the girl's presence; no doubt on account of being ill. However, a hint of melancholy crept into her voice as she 'said'

"Mmn. It's not contagious, that I can assure you."

That was when Rugal heard a new voice coming from the tablet, this one masculine and somewhat posh in tone, [color=3897E0]

"He already knows, Madam. There is no point in hiding it any further than necessary. Have not the other users established this already? Oh, where are my manners. 

Greetings User: Rugal Bernstein, also known as: Mr. Bernstein or The King of Fighters. I am Dimitri; User: Teri Gravel, Third Level Cleric's low clearance Artificial Intelligence, and Virtual Assistant. As she is feeling not all herself at the moment, I am more than willing to answer any questions and take any personal messages the Madam needs should she find herself incapacitated. I apologize for the rushed greeting, but I surmised that my sudden appearance without introduction would surprise or alarm other users."

[/color]

Teri rolled her eyes, and, after another light cough, 'said',

"Getting a little ahead of yourself, aren't you?"

[color=3897E0]

"I only mean the best for you, Madam."

[/color]

AIM
Bison was a little nervous for a moment as Inuart shouted in pain, that didn't normally happen, but as always, Viscus was more or less uncaring during the episode.

"Sometimes the blood cells don't allow the Virus to spread as well, but aside from that and your eyes, there are no side effects."

"Wait...what about my eyes?..." Inuart asked, making sure he still had his vision.
Another compartment revealed a small mirror.

"It's a trademark Wesker built into the Virus, though if you have any objections, we can remove it or get you some contact lens to cover them up."

He explained as Bison went to prep the Transport.

"Now, if you wish to obtain some new gear, I direct you to the supply hub. I'm certain it'll have everything you need so long as you look in the right place. Once you are done, go to the hanger, a transport will be waiting."

Medbay
Rugal was startled by the new voice, a reflex he was yet to grow out of, but he soon sat back down once he explained himself.
"I heard something about Viscus and another AI. He actually made a rather big deal of it if I remember correctly." He said, leading to some awkward looks between Mark and Jake.
Rugal was yet to realise they were even there.
"Still, Will you be ready for our arrival?....Also, might I say these trips seem far longer on this ship. The Skynoah would have been there in about half the time it's taking us." He added, recalling better days.

Kud & Melethia.
Location: Rising Dawn, Armory.
Time: 4 Am.

Kud put her new short-sword called "Ivory Song" back into it's sheath and grabbed the unnamed dagger (I already named it Silver Thorn. XD) and pulled it open. The dagger glittered off light because of the moon, Kud swung it once and could clearly feel the difference in weight and speed of the weapon. "Umm, I don't know much about weapons... but this feels much more lighter." She said in a uncertain voice and looked at Ivory Sword, the short-sword was practically singing when it was swung.

 

[Kalastryn]

Kalastryn makes her way to the infirmary after the sounds of combat seemed to disappear from the training room, seeing Teri in one of the recovery beds herself, she can't help but wonder what happened. and there was a question she had before but didn't get the chance to ask it... just what Kind of things would her power allow her to create? "Teri, what happened to you? you were relatively fine when I left you before... or are you still drained from creating Dmitri? either way I had an additional question for you if you don't mind..." she notes that Rugal had entered the room, so she whispers her question to Teri so no one else could hear. "what exactly is in your power to create? I know its rather limited... but if you could create an artificial intelligence from thin air without so much as a flick of the wrist... could you create something living too?"
