FInally! I can scratch my fantasy itch.
Now, I just need to check my sheet. I've kind of forgotten my characters name...

So I take it the intro is already done, and we're just waiting for everybody else to reaffirm that they are taking part in the RP?Sparrow said:
Chapter One: Esterton
It had been days since the group had eaten a proper meal. Their bones ached, their stomachs rumbled and their bodies shivered. Nobody wanted to admit it, but they'd pushed themselves too far this time. They'd have to stop.
Emerson ruffled the snow from his hair. He hadn't washed in days, not that anyone in the group had. The time they'd spent climbing the snow-covered mountain of Cabenshire had not treated their bodies well, but to Emerson it was hell. Elves and dwarves grew up in snowy lands, born under harsh conditions, but humans did not.
"Urgh, I've had enough of this. We've been climbing this mountain for days.", he shouted over the blizzard, thrusting his sheathed claymore into the snow to keep him upright, "We should stop for a while. We need to eat and rest."

Everyone check the second post on the front page. If you're in it, you're in the RP.
Also, just as a heads up, the group has been together for a while now. Unless your character likes to keep to themselves, you can assume you know everyone.

Logan looked up, wrapping his cloak further round him. The rich boy's suggestion made sense, still he never liked camping at the best of times, and halfway up a mountain wasn't going to be pleasant. He stuttered out his reply
"fi-fi-fiiiineee, by the gods I'm freezing... Any chance of a fire in this thing? It's preferable to freezing to death halfway up this mountain. At least with a fire we'd be able to see the icicles grow aye? I'll take first watch if we're doing them I'm feeling fairless restless as it is."
Logan relaxed backs, awaiting peoples reply as to how they should continue, he just really hoped it would involve warmth and food soon...

A black raven landed on the hilt of Emerson's broadsword, and cocked it's head to the side. It looked up at the sky, then at the rest of the group. "We only have a few hours left of sunlight." It said. Across had been scouting ahead, and was just returning now. "We should probably set up camp now." He shifted from foot to foot. Even in animal form he could feel the cold.
He dropped to the ground, and morphed into a shivering human. He stood up and brushed the snow off his clothes. He pointed ahead of the path they were following. "There's a pretty god spot up there. Nice, flat ground." He turned to Logan. "You and Tipo can conjure fire, correct?"

Thombur paced back and forth, searching for a comfortable spot to rest.(Although that was very hard to find)He eventually found a flat surface, and brushed away the snow with his green cloak. The dwarf collapsed on the spot, catching his breath from the tiring hike. He removed his pack from his back, leaning it on a small rock that lay beside him.
"Yes, I agree. A fire would be quite nice at the moment. Hopefully we can cook somethin'...are there any provisions left anyway?" His stomach growled viciously at the thought of meat over a fire.

Logan raised an eyebrow,
"unfortunately my art is not with fire conjuring, for that we need an elementalist and there doesn't appear to be any around us. It is possible for me to produce some heat in this blizzard but I'm not sure how much or for how long I could keep it up. Still with Tipo's help it's possible I could try and form an igloo or house out of the snow, though in this blizzard it'll be hard to compact it without it being blown away. Still better than no shelter. As for fire, well if Emerson wasn't trained it good ol fashioned firestarting without magic we may have to do without. Tipo, feel like helping me try and create some shelter out of this snow?"
Logan turned and reached for the power he'd had concentrating on trying to manipulate the snow into a small squat structure suitable to hide them from the biting winds.

OOC: I have no idea exactly how the magic system is supposed to work, do you tell me if I succeed or not? Or is it considered that I simply use my common sense on what is achievable?
"Thank goodness.", Emerson groaned, "I'll unpack the food. Abbadon, you get the..."
Emerson held his hand up the group to signify silence, trying his best to peer through the white blanket of snow up ahead. Something was moving in their direction.
Suddenly, without warning, an arrow pierced through the air in the group's direction. Emerson only narrowly lifted his shield in time to block the arrow.
"Orcs!", he cried, whiping his cloak off and unsheating his sword.

Darkenwrath said:
"Energy Users can control gravity, heat, light, pushing-and pulling etcetera..."
Tipo grinned, and looked at the band of orcs running through the veil of snow. Not enough warriors to even carry the name band. More like 'group' - or squad! Yes, that was it. Squad.
"How random. Orcs on top of mountains."
He dropped himself from the mount of snow and with a stylish flurry, managed to launch two of them far away. His grin widened.
