This is a high level rules light game set in a school for magical kids, kinda a mash-up of Soul Eater, Harry Potter, and X-Men. :)

male goo dragon alchemist 16(spellhammer) / synthesist 16

A large blue dragon of tedious soliditiy ducks its head through the door way. It wears only a long white lab coat full of black stitches.
"Um. Hello, professor. I uh. Don't know why the arrows picked you, but... I... I just ate a horse. And... I need help..." he stammers out a mostly unhelpful explanation as to why he's there.
He seems scared and confused, even though(assuming krays is normal size for a kobold) he's very nearly four times Kray's size.

Ryo? You still there?

Krays is actually medium sized as a kobold, large as a dragon. He's in kobold form now.

He raises an eye ridge.
"Well, then. I've learned not to argue with Avalon, so you must be in the right place. Although I do not know if I can assist with indigestion..."

"Um... sorry... I should explain... I am new to being like this... I was human the day before yesterday and all my life before. Then something happened in an alchemy lab and I think something happened with my Ressurection potion and some other stuff, but I woke up like this. I was in the sim room trying to see if I could do magic like a dragon and I did and it made a horse, but then when I looked at it, I got hungry."
He speaks really quickly before slowing down some to explain the truly concerning part.
"Then I kinda hazed out sorta. I could see what I was doing, but it's like it wasn't me doing it. Like I was just kinda of watching it happen. I watched a playback and it was awful.... I looked like a snake...."
He seems quite disturbed by what he had done.

"It's alright. Slow down, have a seat." The display skeleton on the frame, hops down, and brings a chair over for Kevin to sit in. Krays begins to brew a pot of tea.

"A resurrection potion would be very powerful if managed. I did not think it was possible to imbue a potion with that spell. Perhaps that's where the problem lies? Although, it seems you are more concerned with the eating of the horse, then your transformation?"


"Hey, these are actually kinda good."
She smiles, taking a few more off the bush herself.
"We should bring these for a snack."

He rubs Melody's back as she cries into his shoulder "there there, let it out, let it all out, I'm here, let it all out" he says, as he rubs her back not knowing what else to do.

Mel seems to be calming down. she wipes her nose on Arthur's shirt.

I'm sorry, its just that, I think Kai just dumped me, well maybe he did, I don't know, it is all so confusing. I just wish he could have talked to me.

Mel picks up the note and hands it to Arthur. I don't know what to make of this.


male goo dragon alchemist 16(spellhammer) / synthesist 16

"Well, it's not a potion in the strictest sense of the word. You can't make potions of this level of power. It is a potion in the sense that it's alchemically made liquid magic, but it's more of a potion in a colloquial sense. When used on the remains of anything else, it works like a true Ressurection, but if I take it, it remains active until something happens to me in which case it triggers and acts like normal Ressurection. I can make one with an hour of work and with all the free materials here, I just keep a couple. So, I think when the explosion happened, I was working with a dragon form and ooze form to see if I could get them to work together. And when it exploded, I got infused with both and ressurected into the result. It seems permanent so far. But this really isn't the problem. I loved this up until ten minutes ago. I didn't think it would affect my mind, but I have urges that I never had before. Or at least if I ever did, I couldn't act on it. I'm kind of scared. I like being this way. It's the end result of all my work almost by total accident. But I don't know what I could do if this happened again. I mean, a summoned horse is one thing, but I felt the same feeling with a girl's familiar earlier. I don't want to be dangerous to other people. I think the scariest part is that it just felt so good. It was awful, but a part of me loved it, being stronger than another creature, eating it and using-ugh."
He starts to trail off, his eyes taking a more draconic and sharp appearance near his stint about the experience at the end. He shakes his head and closes his eyes, opening them back to how they were before, more bright and intelligent, less predatory.
He sits in the chair, tail going through the back, obviously having been at the school long enough to not be phased by the skeleton.


Male Kobold (Adult Black dragon) Gestalt Sorceror/Oracle Necromancer; Champion of Death

"Well, dragons are predators. They are usually at the very top of any food chain they reside near. We usually spend a majority of our lives eating and sleeping. It takes a lot to keep our souls burning, and our bodies working. If you've inherited this metabolism from the dragon, and the ability to consume most anything from your ooze side, that could prove to become a serious problem. Anything you encounter could be seen as food."
He pours two cups of tea and brings one to Kevin. He sits down in a chair across from him. He takes a couple sips, looking to see if Kevin has any other thoughts on the matter.

Renkai would have just left the child to its own devices if not for what Melody would want. It would survive, or die on its own without him...

Renkai inwardly sighs and turns the corner,

Renkai see's a small girl her back turned, franctically urging her pet to wake up. a limp mangy tail can be seen in the shadows where she is crying

Don't worry we'll find you some food, don't die on me again

"What happened to this town?" Renkai asks cautiously, "I have some food that I can share if you tell me." he says with a smile and walks closer to the girl and her pet.

"That's what I'm afraid of. It hasn't been towards anything bigger yet. Nothing I feel is at least a little threatening, and nothing else draconic or ooze, but with the imp and the horse, they just looked like... I don't know, my mind just kept saying easy prey, easy prey. Like with you or the girl or Roel, anything familiar, I don't feel it. But it's different for some things. Like a part of my mind zeros in and watches they way it moves. I kind of feel myself coiling up. What if it happens for a person or something? What if my mind can't keep control of that part? Especially now, that part of me knows what it feels like...."
He looks at the cup, taking a deep swig.

arthu reads the note, sucking in a deap breath at the end of it between his teath "well first off how honest and detailed do you want this, because this, this is a piece of work... assuming she says some variant of "the truth, and everything, you see" he continues on if not I'll post alternatives later "well, there are a number of things going on in the letter, for one, he seems regretful, maybe even repentant of his.... Violent tendancies, and he sites you as the motivation for such, and that's a good thing," he pauses again, trying to properly word his next statement "but the medium through which he delivers such seems rather extremely detached, or possibly done out of fear for your reaction, seems kinda off with something like this, if you care about the person you should say it to their face, anyway and the other content seems rather indisicive, or possibly manic, past that, first bit, he feels himself unworthy to be with you, but it seems like he thinks he has a shot once he finishes with his reparations, and screws his head on right, saying at the same time, move on with your life , I'm dumping you and I'll be back for you, mixed signals to be sure, man could benifit from a shrink," he clears his throat, " sorry that was rude... Anyway, more than that I'd have to know the guy better,"

Renkai takes a quick step back, drawing his sword with one hand and reaching up to pull the square of cloth down off of his mouth.

He inhales and prepares to unleash the withering blast of dragonsflame from his lungs, but is shocked by the feeling of his fingers upon his face...

DAMNIT! he curses, preparing to slash the child in half if it approaches

"Well, being human before, you would never have felt truly sated like this. You are now a supernatural being, and that changes things a bit.

I can understand this, as while I'm a dragon, I was made to grow up as a regular kobold...for reasons I don't need to get into right now. Once my form and some of my memories were restored to me, they came along with draconic metabolism and a sometimes irrational drive to protect what is mine, and what I love. There have been a few...embarrassing...moments now and then, as one side pushes over into the other, but I assure you, it is completely controllable. I eat the same things I did as a kobold...just way more of it. It helps keep me in the now, and aware, and not hungry enough to eat a horse." he says the last bit with a smidgen of humor.

The dogs teeth fall and break from his mouth in a shower of calcium fragments, his guts spill open, the stench and heat is incredible... The girl giggles even as her head is severed from the body

It's only just begging mister...

Her head lands just as the glow from the dogs belly erupts into ichor and gore and heat, her own body is begging to glow... considering how much larger she was than that runt, the resulting explosion might hurt...

Renkai is unprepared for the initial explosion of decay and loses his sword from the unexpected impact, but the warning allows him to escape the second explosion.

Tucking his legs in as he flips back, the girl's erupting spray propels Renkai up and out of the alleyway. He hits the cobbles on one foot and one knee. Spitting out a mouthful of undead dog ichor, he wipes off his face, clearing his eyes of the horrific fluids.

That was foul... he curses as he reaches to draw a weapon, but finds that his cloak had been torn badly... many straps are now missing.
He pulls a crossbow from his hip and draws it back to load a bolt, surveying the streets alertly.

"But the thing is, I wasn't hungry until I looked at it. Er, not hungry, but weak I guess? I don't have a stomach persay, that's kind of all of me, but I have a hungry feeling, more like being weak all over. But I wasn't then. Not until I looked at it. Like I can always eat, but instead of just because I'm hungry, it's because I can. Some types of ooze just keep eating and getting bigger. If there's no food, they shrink to nothing and die, but if there is, they can just keep eating and getting bigger. How can I control this if it's constant?"

He downs the rest of his tea at once nervously, the dark colored liquid visible as it goes down his neck.
He looks at the cup oddly, rubbing his semi claws over the rim.

Renkai focuses his magics, diminished though they are, into his weapon. The bolt glows red for an instant before it leaps away.

Quickly, he drops the weapon and draws a wakazashi, Sprinting at the gnome as the bolt slams into the cobbles between the wights, the bolt explodes into a fireball. The alleyway is filled with the magical flames for only a few instants before it burns out.

The vast herd of undead cattle all of a sudden bearing towards him is a sight that Renkai is unsure of how to face, but the 'Master' is getting away.

Renkai dodges the first set of horns and leaps up, following the fleet footed gnome, slashing at the Aurochs with reckless abandon. Renkai is gaining ground quickly when one of the bulls he planned to land on had a large chunk of flesh disintegrate beneath his foot.

The fetid stench of rot is unbearable, and easily caught by the wights, but Renkai has a few moments to nurse his injuries before the undead discover his new location, muttering curses about the black cloaked bastard that stole his mask

The sound of large leathery wings can be heard from his hiding place, passing quickly over head. A amplified voice can be heard from the sky

Stop your quivering master shi, keep the herd on course and be not afraid

Spoiler:

the voice trails as it flys further Renkai can see and feel the herd passing through this town, a vast swatch of rotting mangy animals of all types slowly heading their way, a second cowbell can be herd from what he only can assume is the rear of the herd. Without warning three spears of light appear in walls to his room, one strikes his middle toe in his foot and the pain is immense as if shot, the toe is gone, and the boot is somehow whole. A fly that was in the path of one of the other beams is vaporized

His breath is taken away by the sight before him, in all of its horrible glory.

Aye'yup, thought that was out fellar. Ah Hey you he barks Mind a hoppin on down from there and just dying for me, it'd make things a whole mess easier... ** spoiler omitted **

Renkai has no way to really escape from the dead horseman, being able to hear the wights downstairs and the gunman has a barrel pointed straight at him,

My pleasure he says, firing both crossbows and flipping them around to recock them for the next set. The light repeating crossbows hurl a total of six bolts at the horseman before Renkai drops them, and draws a pair of flasks to toss into the building.

1d20 + 14 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 14 + 7 = 35 1d8 ⇒ 5
1d20 + 7 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 7 + 9 = 331d8 ⇒ 1
1d20 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 7 + 4 = 211d8 ⇒ 2

1d20 + 14 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 14 + 7 = 241d8 ⇒ 7
1d20 + 7 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 7 + 9 = 271d8 ⇒ 8
1d20 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 4 = 171d8 ⇒ 3

The rogue takes one step and drops the two stories to the ground

The horseman takes the hits without flenching, a torrent of 5 bolts strike him and one his mount as the rogue lands on his feet he fires off three beams of light

1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 221d12 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

The first beam of light

Spoiler:
Tears through renkai's arm, leaving a smooth hole for an instant before blood begins to pour
while Renkai narrowly avoids the rest. Closing to melee range, Renkai unleashes a devastating flurry of blows upon the deceased horse's rider, Renkai's hands are made of living stone, because of a short magical phrase he barked before going to deadly work

1d20 + 14 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 14 + 7 = 321d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
1d20 + 7 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 9 = 301d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

She looks him hard in the eyes

"Takes a lot to make me blush Shoshin"

Something in her words comes over as if she means it.

"Oh, like what?" He looks at her, raising an eyebrow.

as renkai charges in his fists unleashing his fury the undead unicorn attacks as his rider is attacked

1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 111d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

the rider takes the blows and dismounts, his feet stagger as he barely catches himself and levels his rifle again

The feral sounds of wights can be heard coming from the side road

"now that would be telling Shoshin, but let us just say I've spent time with high rollers who like to party you know, party real hard"

"looks like we'er up soon"

He nods, filing that little tidbit of info away for later and looking towards the signing group as well, leaning closer whispering "what do you think the odds are this'll be fun?"

"Well, being human before, you would never have felt truly sated like this. You are now a supernatural being, and that changes things a bit.
I can understand this, as while I'm a dragon, I was made to grow up as a regular kobold...for reasons I don't need to get into right now. Once my form and some of my memories were restored to me, they came along with draconic metabolism and a sometimes irrational drive to protect what is mine, and what I love. There have been a few...embarrassing...moments now and then, as one side pushes over into the other, but I assure you, it is completely controllable. I eat the same things I did as a kobold...just way more of it. It helps keep me in the now, and aware, and not hungry enough to eat a horse." he says the last bit with a smidgen of humor.

"But the thing is, I wasn't hungry until I looked at it. Er, not hungry, but weak I guess? I don't have a stomach persay, that's kind of all of me, but I have a hungry feeling, more like being weak all over. But I wasn't then. Not until I looked at it. Like I can always eat, but instead of just because I'm hungry, it's because I can. Some types of ooze just keep eating and getting bigger. If there's no food, they shrink to nothing and die, but if there is, they can just keep eating and getting bigger. How can I control this if it's constant?"

He downs the rest of his tea at once nervously, the dark colored liquid visible as it goes down his neck.
He looks at the cup oddly, rubbing his semi claws over the rim.

"It's not easy. But, at least you are aware of the problem, and you can control yourself when you feel the urges coming. If it proves to be too much, then for the safety of others we may have to correct your experiment. I'd think a true resurrection would restore your soul to it's proper vessel. So, don't worry, there may be options.

In the meantime, as far as what will help you keep control? There are a couple things that work for me. When I find myself going too far over, I spend time with my wife, or with my children. They help to keep me focused, and to remember why I have chosen to live as I have. Another thing is to allow myself to take pleasure in the things I can do that won't bring harm to others. I love to fly, and swim. It's a way to release and satisfy some urges while keeping others at bay.
Do you have anything like this? Do you have someone to help keep you focused and accountable?"

She walks up to the clark elf and signs up.
