IC Kat:
"How could you say that.....?" I said in a low tone.
"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be here in the first place. Taking this chance to make a life for ourselves. For us!"
My expression was pained, and angry.
"How could you just run away like that?! Do you have any idea how worried I was?!"
IC Percy:
"I told you, I'm not giving up!"
Fluids oozed from his hand, but Percy pushed the pain away. His hand would be fine. For now.
He lunged forward once more in an overhead slash.
IC: Xara - Outside House of Grossh.
Yep, there it was.
IC: Hoto - Malebranche Fifth Tier
Hoto backed away towards Jayar, not wanting to be caught in the way of Kat's frustration.
IC: Fang - Malebranche Fifth Tier
"I've done my part," Fang concluded. "But you...are a better leader than I could ever be. Now... I'm just the mascot."
IC: Shield
Shield began to walk off. "Tell me when Johmak gets here, I've got stuff to do."
IC: Xara - Outside House of Grossh.
"Oh no you don't," I stepped into Shield's path, "Every time one of you lot wanders off on your own, something like that," I jabbed a finger towards the chunks of broken ice lying scattered around Fang, "happens."
IC: Shield
"I don't have time for this." He tried to walk around her.
IC Kat:
"You aren't a mascot, for Karzahni's sake, you're my boyfriend!" My voice grew softer. "And I'd be lost without you.... so..... please don't leave......"
IC: Jayar / Malebranche
Kat was talking with Fang now, it seemed.
But now Shield needed to be talked to... again. "Shield," Jayar called over to him, "where are you going? What we're all waiting for is the most important thing for us in this whole city right now, and it could arrive at any moment - and probably be rather disappointed if we aren't all here. Not to mention the danger in wandering off alone; you should be more aware of that than anyone. What 'stuff' are you possibly hoping to do that's worth taking those risks?"
He was trying to sound more curious and concerned than irritated, but it was a little difficult. Jayar really would have thought between nearly dying and Kamanau, Shield would have learned at least something about unity, and it was incredibly disappointing to see that he still was intent upon abandoning his comrades for (as far as Jayar could discern) less than no good reason at all. At least he should be a little more cooperative with Jayar, whose mind he had shared, than with a somewhat blunt Xara... then again, maybe not. He should have been done with this silly randomly leaving thing, too.
IC Percy:
"I told you, I'm not giving up!"
Fluids oozed from his hand, but Percy pushed the pain away. His hand would be fine. For now.
He lunged forward once more in an overhead slash.
IC: Pyre - Gym
Pyre jumped to the side, out of Percy's reach.
All I have to do is get this guy tired. Or get him to bleed enough to fall unconscious.
IC Percy:
"Fight me!" He screamed, springing after the other rahk, with a horizontal slice.
IC: Slif - Library
I almost tackled the new guy before he started laughing and hugging four arms. Note to self: Get his name.
"Friend of yours?" I asked arms.
IC Xi
"You could say that..." Xi grumbled as Hollow rubbed a fist into his shoulder.
IC Hollow
"So, how long you been here, Xi? last i checked, they didn't carry lightsabers! Ahaha!!!"
He didn't notice Xi's utterly confused expression.
IC Doubt
"That was... Abrupt..."
IC: Fang - Malebranche Fifth Tier
Xara's words flashed through his head once again.
"You've really got him wrapped around your finger, haven't you?"
How could he explain how those words tormented him? How, despite how they were there for each other through Omega's death and every trial that followed, being with her made him feel...
...weak.
He couldn't. And so he remained silent, wishing they would just leave him to his brooding.
IC: Helix/Gym
I turned around.
"Very well. In case you haven't already heard, I'll pay clientele with chemical concoctions or whatever you find on the venture."
IC: Carapace/Above the Forest
I nodded and I continued flying.
IC Pentaghast:
"What manner of chemical concoctions?"
IC: Alpha/Hallways
I left the infirmary and aimlessly roamed the halls.
After that shocking answer, I found myself even more doubtful of myself. And there was no one who could help me.
What should I do?
IC: Carapace/Around the Village
We exited the forest and I took a turn to go around the village ruins. I smiled to Sim.
"Sure. Sounds like a good idea. How do you think we'll find them though?"
IC: Helix/Gym, Talking to Pentaghast
It depends on what you like and what I have on hand. From what I can imagine I'll be able to get, I think healing salves, burning sprays, smokescreens, painkillers, and potentially an alcohol based explosive or oil based incendiary.
IC Pentaghst:
The words 'explosive' and 'incendiary'caught Pentaghast's ear, and she grinned, and wrapped an arm around Helix's shoulder. "I think this venture is going to be most profitable for the both of us."
IC Caoutchouc / Outside House of Grossh
"Leave him." The elastirahk spoke up abruptly and angrily. It was quite clear to him that their little group was unraveling at the edges. Too much more of this and they would fracture entirely and any chance of their ever more eventual and ephemeral freedom would vanish.
"I'm tired of fools like you and Shield costing us time, anguish and our potential safety. If you can't or won't do what needs to be done... Then get out of here. Now."
IC: Helix/Gym
I winced as she tried to put a hand over my shoulder and I stepped away. After all I've been through, my trek through the ruins and the recent assignment, I wasn't really willing to let anyone touch me regardless of the context and circumstance.
"Aa-a-anyways. So I take it that you will follow me in exploring the mainland."
I put out a hand to shake on the deal.
IC Percy:
"Fight me!" He screamed, springing after the other rahk, with a horizontal slice.
IC: Pyre - Gym
As he slashed horizontally, Pyre parried with my scythes deflecting the attack away. Pyre then attempted to slash Percy's chest with the blade of his scythe.
IC Percy:
Percy slipped his blade from the remaining kama, and thrust with all his might at Pyre's chest as the swung kama bit into his own.
IC Pentaghast:
Seemingly unperterbed by her inabilty to get her arm around the Rahk in time, she clasped the hand in a satisfied manner.
"You got yourself a deal."
IC: Helix/Gym
I smiled.
"Now shall we began our first venture?"
IC: Shield
"I don't have time for this." He tried to walk around her.
IC Caoutchouc / Outside House of Grossh
"Leave him." The elastirahk spoke up abruptly and angrily. It was quite clear to him that their little group was unraveling at the edges. Too much more of this and they would fracture entirely and any chance of their ever more eventual and ephemeral freedom would vanish.
"I'm tired of fools like you and Shield costing us time, anguish and our potential safety. If you can't or won't do what needs to be done... Then get out of here. Now."
IC: Xara - Outside House of Grossh.
I began to move to the side, intending to once again put myself in his path, but Cao's words gave me pause.
Not so long ago, I'd been saying the exact same things. I'd basically told Kat and the others to let Shield die, so we wouldn't have to worry about him running off again and compromising the mission... like he was trying to do right now...
"Kat?" I put myself in Shield's way again, uncertain. Kat wanted us to be unified, to work together, but this selfish moron apparently didn't want any part of that, in spite of everything that had happened, the effort the others had put into saving his sorry life. Part of me wanted nothing more than to step aside and let him walk off to his doom, but the rest of me knew Kat likely wouldn't forgive me if I didn't at least try. "Kat!"
IC; Shield
Shield sighed. "Fine." He crossed his arms and went back to standing silently.
S-shield.....what were you trying to do....
Just....don't worry about it....Root.
IC: Slif - Library
I started to grin. This guy's enthusiasm was infectious, it really got into me. I chuckled again. Another thing was his light saber comment. That sounded like something I had heard, but definitely not around town.
"Well, good enough for me. Wha's your name brother?"
IC Percy:
Percy slipped his blade from the remaining kama, and thrust with all his might at Pyre's chest as the swung kama bit into his own.
IC: Pyre - Gym
Pyre tried to jump back, but the blow could not be avoided. He jumped backwards, but simply the length of the blade allowed it to pierce his chest (although not all the way due to his jump). He forced himself back and the blade slipped out of his chest. He felt the blood coming out of his chest, but he tried his best to hide the pain.
He must be gripping that blade pretty tightly if it's not slipping out of his hand. I can use that for my advantage.
IC: I did not ask for your opinion. Icarax's reply to Vinna was sharp and curt. You are not in possession of all the facts, and have no insight into my thoughts. Your opinion therefore, is close to worthless and I would thank you not to volunteer it unsought for in future.
Rail returned to being the object of Icarax's attention.
You on the other hand have earned genuine thanks. Is there some favour you would ask in return for the information and your service?
IC: The wind seemed to pick up a little in Malebranche, carrying with it the stench of sulphur from deep down in the caldera, the heat of the magma that flowed through the city's veins, soot and ash that marred everything with black and angry stains. It also brought Johmak.
When she reformed from the cloud of crystals she flew as she took the shape of a Vortixx, not the Rahkshi she had been last time, but the same snowflake patches of white adorned her eyes.
"I assume this means you have decided?"
IC: Vinna
Location: Gym
"I meant no disrespect, your darkness." Vinna apologized, bowing with respect.
IC: Snake - Malebranche
My eyes widen...this must be the being that the others had described. I stay silent. I don't feel like messing up again just yet.
IC: Vlad / Refectory
Vlad nodded his agreement with Doubt. "Qvuite..."
IC: "I assume this means you have decided?"
IC: Era - Outside House of Grossh.
"Yes, I believe we have."
IC-Swarm
Swarm crossed her arms. "Well for starters, you kept fainting and falling over, which may explain the headache," She explained. "And then you kind of transformed into... this thing. Did you forget to tell me something, Moonlight?"
IC-Arsenal
To be fair, the Rahkshi's sudden attack kind of caught him off guard. as the sword hit his torso, he instantly shot up and balled his fists, ready to make another move. "Hey, if you wanted to spar, you could've just asked!" he said, a little ticked off about his foe's dirty move
OOC
It's time to fight! (Just to clear things up, was Malady intending the attack to be lethal, is Arsenal standing up and shrugging off the hit acceptable as he's mostly mechanical, or not allowed?)
(Also, If Arsenal either dies or gets horribly injured in this fight, expect Swarm to go out for Malady's blood...)
IC: Shock
"Oh for the love of everything unholy and dark, could you please shut up and have a family reunion elsewhere?" I grumble at Hollow and Xi, slamming my book shut. The fact that I was telling someone else to shush was a bad sign- By Tridax's nostrils, was I getting soft?
IC: Mortsia
I sigh, and turn away. No spars today. Silently, I exit the gym, and jump onto the ceiling, before making my way to the library.
IC: Draco
I enter the gym, where I see some of my fellow prefects confronting a pair. Frowning, I move over to them, standing at the back of the group.
IC: Malattia
I stay silent as Haru lands lifelessly at the edge of the Causeway. I'd have to get that back to Teer... If she could ever forgive me. "Well, that situation behind us, I say we get back inside. Don't want some rabid Rahi divebombing u-" Unfortunately for me, that happened. A black smoke hawk flies straight towards me. Yelping, I hit the deck. The bird then... Lands on my back, as if I'm a perch. Wow. I should learn to shut my mouth... "Ravyn!" A voice calls out, almost like a croak. At this, the bird flies off my back, to a black, sad looking Rahkshi.
IC: Leviathan
I let go of my blade. How... Unexpected... "Ah... Of course. I cannot currently aid you, as I have other maters to attend to." With that, I turn to my dorm. I knew I was giving up a body, though not to Icarax, obviously. The fact that he was dragging the body away from his office... It didn't matter. I had to keep a low profile.
IC:
"Sorry about that." I say as Ravyn flies back onto my shoulder. "Ravyn gets... Excited when he meets new Rahkshi, and since we haven't seen any for so long.... Well, he was enthusiastic." Ravyn caws in agreement. "Anyways, my name is Revenant."
IC: Leviathan
I let go of my blade. How... Unexpected... "Ah... Of course. I cannot currently aid you, as I have other maters to attend to." With that, I turn to my dorm. I knew I was giving up a body, though not to Icarax, obviously. The fact that he was dragging the body away from his office... It didn't matter. I had to keep a low profile.
IC: Edge - Halls
"Off to the gym to meet Icarax."
He dragged the body towards his dorm (which was in the direction of the gym). As he opened the door, he looked around to check for any followers then quickly shut it.
"Now where shall I begin..."
IC Percy:
The Dodgerahk pressed his advantage, bringing the blade diagonally up from his right in a slash at Pyre.
IC Kat:
thank mata nui she arrived. I was worried I was gonna have to let everyone go.............
"Fang.... I don't.... You don't have to be a leader." I offered my hand.
"We're a team. You and I. All of us. That means we watch out for each other, and stick together."
IC Pentaghast:
"Aye, let's. Lead on, my new business partner!"
IC: Helix/Gym >>> Causeway
And thus I began to make the confident stride out towards the Causeway.
IC Percy:
The Dodgerahk pressed his advantage, bringing the blade diagonally up from his right in a slash at Pyre.
IC: Pyre - Gym
This time Pyre was ready to dodge out of the way. He jumped to his right. He had to be careful not to tire himself out.
Tired yet fool? Lost enough blood yet?
Pyre was determined to win by any means necessary.
IC Percy:
As it turned out, Pyre had stepped right into Percy's trap, his left fist shooting out in a punch lined up for the Plasma Rahkshi's face.
Name: Nenriki
Variation: Anger
Level: 2?
Gender: female
Gear: Small double-ended spear-ish kind of thing
Appearance: White/grey with green eyes and an abstract armour decal on her right forearm.
Personality: Nenriki is normally confident,strong and a pretty alright person overall. But,as her variation suggests,has huge anger issues. The slight insult can make her get violent very quickly.
Bio: Nenriki does quite a lot of sports and spends most of her time at the gym.
She doesn't really have any friends as of yet,due to her anger problems mostly,people try to avoid her.
OOC:
Alright uh..
I just made this account a few minutes ago,so would anybody mind explaining me how everything works here?
Also i'd need to know the most recent events so i can keep up with everyone.
OOC: Welcome to BZP, Ghosty! The profile you've just posted actually goes in the Student Register topic, and you can read the first post to get an idea of the setting. As for recent events..... well we had a list of everything that's happened somewhere, I'm sure someone can link it. In the meantime, check out the wiki. It's not totally up to date, but it can definitely help fill you in!
http://corpus-rahkshi.wikia.com/wiki/The_Corpus_Rahkshi_Pages
OOC:
Seriously this is hella confusing. Can anyone tell me what's currently happenning so i can start up?
OOC: Hello, Ghosty, and welcome. It's always nice to see new players. First up, you'll need to repost your profile in the discussion topic and wait for it to be approved by staff. Secondly, our community wiki has a timeline, which admittedly hasn't been updated in a little while, but should help you get an idea of some of the more recent events that've been going on.
Hope this helps. ![]()
