BZPRPG: Ta-Wahi

IC: DemasThere was no response, despite the fact that Demas could see clearly that there were several beings inside the compound. Irritated, the Toa of Magnetism stepped forward and pounded the gate twice more with his fist.

IC: (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)The salty sea air was still felt in Perkahn's eyes as he sat down by the bar."Bula wine. Your worst. I'm not exactly good on money right now."The way he said it made him laugh. Why'd he come here, of all places, if he wanted a cheap drink?Maybe, just maybe... because when he still wasn't an exile, he used to come here. He was still amazed how nobody recognized him yet. Years upon years in the forest seem to change a Toa.

IC: Raknar (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)Raknar was doing a silent counting method in his mind, figuring out how many people were currently crew of the Infernavika.Five. Nowhere near enough.Then he caught sight of Perkahn. Well-built, looked as though he needed cash, seemed to look as though he didn't care about any sort of moral code...Perfect."Oi! C'mere, mate! Lemme buy y' a drink." -Teezy

IC: Trad, sword-staff at hand approached the abandoned foundry. He had left his shield at the room, it was much too cumbersome. He reckoned that he was proficient enough to deal with any threat.Apparently, he was not.A spate of bad luck was following him recently, and it was at work this time.He walked inside the foundry and looked around."What a horrible dump." He paused. "No wonder Arthas left.""That's where you're wrong......Toa......", came a voice from the shadows. A half-crazed Matoran appeared from the shadows, wielding two hammers.

IC: Kitsune, Ta-KoroKitsune breathed out in relief. "The dress thing's personal." She said with a sly smile. "Raion and me are two of a kind. Ever seen a toa of earth with the strength of a stone? How about a toa of gravity with the coloring of an Le-Toa?"

IC: (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)Perkahn sighed. This didn't seem like another attempt to poison him... but he had no way to know."I usually only drink with friends... But since we're already 'mates', in that case, bottoms up. I'm Perkahn."

IC: Tawara, Ta-Koro"Wait, what?" said Tawara. "...Toa? What do they have to do with this?"OOC: Told you Tawara is rather ignorant about Toa.

IC: SoliSoli nodded, "That about sums it up."

IC: Raknar (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)"Raknar," said the Skakdi of Stone, taking a shot of Salamander's. "Cap'n of the Infernavika."He leaned back in his chair."You lookin' for employment?"-Teezy

OOC: I go to Hutchinson for an hour or two, and all this stuff happens...You people are so mean to me.IC-Grochi:Grochi turned away from Raknar, Song, and the newcomer, looking over at Gunner. "I'm getting bored here, want to go find something to do?" He asked the Toa of Air.

IC: (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)Perkahn scratched his chin. Employment was not something he was looking for... though this Skakdi looked like the sort of guy he could both rake in some profit from working with and potentially learn who the karz was so intent on poisoning him before that they tracked him down in the middle of the forest."How much?" he said, 'are you offering' being implied.

IC: Raknar (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)Raknar raised his eyebrows and grinned."Whatever you can pillage without bein' caught," he replied.-Teezy

IC: (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)"Add a personal favor to that and we have a deal," Perkahn said, slowly leaning back in his greatest impression of the Godfather.

IC: Raknar (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)Raknar gave a snort of laughter."Y' good at anything in particular?" he asked.-Teezy

OOC: Xxeth from Po-Wahi....derp.IC: Xxeth - Entering the Magma Lounge -Xxeth entered the Magma Lounge, one of the few places a wanted he could get a drink without anyone trying to call the guard. He went up to the barkeep and ordered a rather strong beverage. "To karzi with Skyra..." He muttered under his breath. "I try to make amends...and he spat in my face..." OOC: Xxeth might be twisting the truth on that just a little bit...but he believes it! XD

IC: (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)Over the course of a few flashes all made in less than a millisecond, Perkahn's battleaxe transferred itself from his back to his hand."I'm good with this. Also with my wit: I was trained to war. Good with iron, too, I can forge weapons pretty dang nice. And not to brag, but my mead's been known to kill."

IC: Raknar (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)"Alrigh', then," said Raknar with a shrug. "Disciplinary officer an' brewmaster."-Teezy

IC: (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)Perkahn grinned, slowly, a long, sharp grin as thin and lithe as himself."Deal."He stretched his hand out."Cap'n."

IC: Kitsune, Ta-Koro"Me and Raion are Toa, Tawara." Kitsune kindly, not at all being mean or sarcastic, acting as if she was simply reminding her that she forgot something of no importance.

IC: "Well, we are Toa. What did you think we were? Tall Matoran?" Gyren said as he looked at the Matoran with a look of disbelif on his face. He gently levitated Tawara off the ground. He had a subtle smile on his face."On your island, have you ever seen stars in the sky that burned brighter than any other?"

IC: Tawara, Ta-Koro"What? But... oh, good one, guys!" laughed Tawara. But their faces didn't seem like they were joking, and she felt a prickle of doubt surface in the back of her mind. She didn't seem to notice the star question.OOC: Ouch. Though actually, Tawara isn't trying to be insulting, or even aware that what she said could be interpreted as such.

IC: [stronin]"I hate to say this, but what now?"

IC: Soli"Guess we'll just have to wait for some customers." Soli said.

IC: Raknar (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)Raknar grinned and shook his hand. They were on a roll today."Like I said, m'name's Raknar," he said. "This is Gunner, my First Mate, and this is Grochi, my...flamboyant...Quartermaster. Oh, and this," he added, pointing a thumb at the Toa of Lightning. "is Song."-Teezy

IC: [stronin]"I suppose we'd get more if we advertised."

IC: Soli"Yeah all the fliers have probably blown away by now."

IC: [stronin]"That's why we make giant banners that reach into the heavens."

IC: SoliSoli chuckled, "Right have fun with that."

IC: [stronin]Stronin nodded, and as he attempted to stand up, fell onto his face. "Ow. Bloody hangover."

IC: SoliThe blind Toa chuckled again, "Yeah, you might wanna take it easy for now."

IC: [stronin]"I suppose we'll have to put up a smaller sign then. Maybe in the centre of the village."

IC: Gyren could sense the growing discomfoty in the Matoran, he decided to change the subject. He wasn't as tall as Raion so he could perhaps pass as a Matoran in Tawara's eyes. "Now that she's all healed up, how about we get something to eat? But wait, I never got properly introduced to all of you." Gyren said with a large grin on his face.

IC: Kitsune & Raion, Ta-KoroRaion, who had been busy seeing if Kitsune was truly okay, spoke for the first time. "Raion. Bounty hunter." He said indifferently."Kitsune." She said with her sly smile.

IC: Lasinia - Magma LoungeThe doors of the Lounge opened once more as a Toa of Lightning promptly bounded in, nearly crashing into a few of the patrons as she made her way over to the bar area. She quickly popped down onto a chair, and looked around."Say, is anyone hiring people right now?"

IC: Raknar (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)Raknar's jaw dropped while his mouth remained closed: the look was rather comical for the captain of the greatest ship on Mata Nui."Uhm, depends on wha' exactly you're lookin' t' be hired for," he said.-Teezy

IC: SongSong looked at Lasinia. She pointed at Raknar. "He is."

IC: Lasinia - Magma Lounge"I actually have no idea," she said cheerfully. "But maybe something that involves tinkering with things."

IC: Raknar (Magma Lounge, Ta-Koro)Raknar hadn't been expecting this many applicants, but this worked out quite well in his favor; the crew was almost back to its old number, and the more people were there for this operation, the better. The Skakdi didn't come up with plans often, but when they were, oh, they were genius."Alrigh'," he said with a shrug. "We could use a tinkerer anyway. Now, t' inform you all o' your first job, I feel we need t' be on...safer ground. To the Infernavika."He stood and walked out the door, walking towards the docks where his ship was stationed.His ship. Not Lohkar's. he couldn't help but think, with a feeling of satisfaction. Today was going to be a bee-yoo-ti-ful day.-Teezy

IC: SongSong shrugged, stood, and grabbed her helm off the table. Her armor glinted in the sun as she followed Raknar out of the Magma Lounge. She easily kept pace, but stayed a step behind the captain in deference to his status.

IC: LavihaAnother day, another dollar and possibly another incident. The Toa of magnetism trotted casually around the docks where a multitude of ships were kept, looking about for which would be the most suitable to steal from. Such a variety and quite the selection was available to Laviha today but of all the boats docked here, she couldn't help but notice the Infernavika."He-llo jackpot." she said to herself, inching closer towards the magnificent ship.OOC: Feel free to interrupt her so I can join the crew.
