Darius looks at the man as well his eyes wholly skeptical, and that is if taken the nicest way.
" So your name is Variel, was it? Do you not find it equally odd you suddenly knew of us, our quest and of the .. issue surrounding this land. Where did you come about this information. Last I knew our comings and goings were... confidential. " The stern orc narrowed his eyes.
Darius looks over Sledge's wounds and nods. " You are injured and have been getting so more than normal. Perhaps it would be better for myself to draw fire for the while? Check and see if Jones has any excess, but in general it might be best to be more cautious of our enemy. " For his own part he threw a CLW at Sledge while thinking on a few other healing choices on himself.
Darius tries to put them down.. "softly"
" I see now what happened to a few of the people who live here. Some bruises shouldn't cause much issue to them. The vampires, however, lair in the bottom, that is clear as day. Sledge we will have to recuperate before venturing down from this point. "
I return! It seems the prodigal necromancer has joined us... Let's see how long he lasts.
Normally I'd welcome it wholeheartedly (it's my favorite alignment), but in this case the party is so geared towards Good, and I'm liking the vibe, so no. It's funny because only Darius is actually good... and he is a HARD Good.
Darius turns to Jones, " Don't be afraid to tend to yourself before following after Jones, I rather you in some form of capability than close to death. " To his effort the Hunter casts Cure Serious Wounds Upon himself before giving chase " Sledge after that bat! He is likely to warn more of them. Careful for traps. "
None off the top of my head unfortunately. Its easy to say Darius tells her to wait at the inn for some reason or another. She effectively becomes a background character. So go wild with whatever choice you want.
Darius leaps and dodges a well as he can between the forest of undead hands as he thinks on his next move.
Grimoire finds itself grasping at the enemies' necks.
Jones feels a healing warmth in all this wrath.
Darius moves in and strikes at the rightmost vampire. " They simply try to hide their fear. They are right were they were before. " Girmoire was relentless.
" Sledge, Break this. "
Darius, aware of the danger, goes up to the door to open it keep note that the mannequins are fakes and instead the enemy. His whip ready to strike them if they deem themselves tough enough. He motions for the rest to follow him.
Darius gives a resigned sigh but goes through the effort of doing so. " Fine, Fine. You can't be held responsible for this not in your capability. Rather safe than dead. " His eyes search for warning signs both magical and not.
Darius follows post-haste " Quickly now, while their scent of defeat is fresh " Looking to his party and the accompanying vampires.
Darius scoffs, " Can anyone chase after the ringleader? Or perhaps we can use the wisps of these cretins as a tail to him? " His whip strikes at whatever remained.
Im sorry my internet had gone out among other terrible things and my phone had lost its charger, as such I had not been able to do much of anything until it got fixed. It has recently done so, and as such Im catching up to all the games that I have been in . I'm sorry for the sudden disappearance as you can see I had no control over it. Everything should be fine now. The catch up is real.
Darius grinned as the bait had worked but was similarly confused at the coordination of the attackers. Luckily the vampires would not die from a simple dispersing but the drunk was another story. He rushed out Grimoire bursting forth a sent it around one of the vampire's necks to rend.
Eh Then you all lose healing so you better not be expecting that too much, not that she did that much.
Question they are some Odd 70 feet from Darius, he has 15ft Reach can he reach the "Drunk" with a charge? Also does the drunk seem Human by his sight?
Darius warns the accompanying vampires of his condition once he drinks his Mutagen and approaches 30 more feet. His aura low and awaiting his inevitable sting. His nose sniffs at the air and a teeth barred low guttural snarl escapes.
Darius gives his normal preparations. With this amount of undead, he felt uneasy but even more so the idea of a possible Necromancer or worse rival Vampire was enough reason to nip this before it caused to much chaos for those of the living. vampires ranged from deranged to honorable, but in search of justice he had HOPED ( little faith he had in them) that afterwards the undead cretins would take a certain... cue from this situation to be more... humble. " We do this fast and painful, if possible try not to kill them as it may not be the MAIN culprit. "
I swear this internet is made out of badly organized ants. Here I go sorry for the absence.
" Good, we can finally get something relatively done. "
Darius stares at Jones and Sledge for a but a moment to realize generally what was to happen and gave an almost approving nod. " If there is anything that can be certain is that Zin only needs an excuse to fire off at a moments' notice. A sizable lead would be.. much better. Not to mention with the time out here I would agree the sound was.. less than pleasurable. " Darius' glare moved from his comrades to the two spawn guarding the way,
Darius nods his head, " If he gives you any trouble, we will give him a demonstration with Zin. Unlike normal vampires, he cannot run to safety from her fire while in that form. "
Darius smirks and taps the dangling bladed whip, " No No, We are not your killers. Though I do dabble in Vampire Slaying. We have come to talk to the prisoner. "
" We have that in spades if the situation comes up. "
Darius rubbed his chin, in the opposite of Kote's posture, arms folded along his chest. " A simple question. How are you keeping him detained when he can simply escape as a mass of vermin? Or is it more free-willed, his own jadedness to the constant occurrence holding him? I'm sure his complete lack of..'beauty' that you all somewhat retain does not hold him in high regard. Nor his variation on your kind.. I suppose the stakes might be useful in interrogation. "
" Very Well then, I suppose we talk to this Ramoska first. If possible he may be under some influence... which would explain the Spawn as well. "
Darus raises a black-haired eyebrow, exemplified by his green skin. " And you do this... consistently? A type of prankster among the ranks.. or worse? "
" Then our plan is the only one available. We are not Locals of this area so there is very little chance we find the right place among the many here. And IF there were not many... you would have found them by now. "
" Interesting information. We had thought to set up a trap of sorts using one of you high class targets as a lure to quash the threat that way. However this leaves us with another plan in case that does not bear the fruit we wish to take. " Darius inspects the stakes. " How much time has passed since you retrieved them, likely the scent is gone or muddled. Otherwise I could track them that way. "
Darius comes off straightlaced. " Information and possible physical might... if we deem in necessary. What do you know of the attacks? "
Darius keeps equally dominant stare at Desmond as the vampire began with hostility. Nonetheless, his posture was not that of one who wished to fight... but not unlike one ready to partake if needed. " No, not Bold, Confident. We will not be your sacrifices worshiper of Zaebos. I am Darius of the Ral'algul House. These are my compatriots. We have come to stop the eradication of your linage by some outside force. As a follower of Sarenrae that you clearly see me as, it is clear I detest murder even to your kind. We came for your assistance. "
Darius smirked, " This is all just business, as much as I would enjoy showing quite a few of you the pleasurable side of Grimoire, I have restraints. I am sure Kote will understand the seriousness of the situation and we will both get over loathing one anothers' presence in that time. Let us go. " Darius cued Randolph to lead.
" I will do what you absolutely need of me.. for it is not a bad plan. You only need one such person to stay with you.. while the rest goes about hiding in some way. Magically if needed. I already fit the bill for a bodyguard... and there is no way you control my mind, so if necessary you can mask magical sensors with your domination affect. "
" Yes... business " Darius says rather curtly " Unless you have some reason to wish the slaughters to continue. Now Please, tell us what you know. As we will not be here for the after-party. " |
