As soon as Egan motions vael dismounts, tying his horse to the enarest tree. Witht he bandits about 70' away, Vael moves behind a tree, and begins to speak the Language of magic. As he chants, you get a breif gimpse of a field of force forming around him.
only a fool is clumsy with magic...I've met many more fools with a balde than I care to remember.....
"A bold plan Egan, striking right at the heart. We must be careful to not allow ourselves to be surrounded, perhaps I could draw their attention to the northeast, giving you a chance to strike from behind.....stay hiden until you see my signal, then come fast." Vael pauses for a moment then says"...perhaps one of you more inclined to the mundane arts of combat should come with me...just in case they do not like being burned alive"
"...for the veil between worlds was thin and the sky show shone with an eerie luminesence....." Vael recites while looking lost in thought. Shaking his head "It has been too long, I can not remember the rest"
Keeping his cloak rapped tight about him, Vael studies his spells in the morning sun. Noticing the strange luminesence Vael tries to recall a tome he once read long ago......
Vael Mounts up, then doubel checks to make sure his spell book is secured. "Another move in the game between us and the bandit lord, I wonder how many it will take to draw his attention?"
"Let us start our journey then and see what the winds bring."
In the morning Vael sits in the morning sun, studying his spells.
"Bandits can not be trusted, if the battle goes against them. Taking out their archers and leader just might convince the others to give up"
"I can send forth jets of flame, either in a straight line or spread wide, the rest of my magic is defensive in nature. If I can get close, they will understand just how hot things can get. Of course no elf worth his salt would travel without a bow and if needs be I will make use of that skill."
"The trees....hmmm, perhaps we could entice them to relinquish the high ground." Turning to Egan he smiles, his eyes alight with glee "with a bit flame?"
no doubt
to Egan: "I would prefer the company of fey over that of many other inhabitants of this world."
"No doubt Egan, but i would so enjoy showing a troll the true power of fire. Alas, the troll is dead and burned, let us turn our attention to a good meal and a new stage to this journey" Vael gladly accepts a drink from Oleg.
At the mention of a troll, Vael's eyes seem to light up
Vael will look over egan's shoulder and read the posters as well.
And I'm back "Applause" For those scouters who would undertsand I am now a proud member of the "Eagle Patrol"
@ Maksim/DM:
As the swordpage leads Mak to the southwest gate of Restov, he sees the elven mage, Vael leaning against the wall. Vael bows ever so slightly, before returning Mak's greeting "May the Unquenchable Fire bring what you desire, I am Vael and I will join the expedition for the forseable future" Ignoring Mak's nervousness Vael looks about impatiently, his posture changeing when a young stable boy appears leading a horse. "Finally my horse, you've kept us waiting boy." Though his attitude is rough, he still tosses the boy a silver coin. Turning to face Mak, "let us begin this journey" Vael answers Mak's questions, though avoids details about his past, only hinting that "he has no intention of going back"
Arriving at Oleg's Vael nods to Oleg and his wife "Vael, at your disposal" before settling his horse. Watching the guards set up their camp, Vael turns at the party's approach. For the moment he seems content to let Mak do the speaking. He does not miss the fact that one of them appears badly injured and once they are settled he addresses them for the first time. "Tough go of it so far?"
New I forgot something! Mind If Vael grabs a light horse before the start. Of course I will subtract the 75g.

Vael should have a complete sheet with background and traits in his profile. If there are any questions or comments, let me know
I'd like to pitch my idea. Vael, Elven Fire Elementalist Wizard. I see him as either a wanderer or exile in regards to elven society. He has experienced the power of fire at somepoint in his past and has developed an obsession with it. In truth it both fascinates and scares him, the power to destroy or purify and protect. Returning to camp, you are suprised to see you have company. Slowly the elf rises, making no move for the bow next to him nor the rapier at his side. Brushing back his long hair, his burning gazes meets each of you in turn. "I am Vael".......... Why does Vael want to explore the stolen lands? Knowledge, Power, and Salvation? While Vael may tell people he was exiled, the truth is he ran, ran from his home, ran from his people, ran from his future. Now he is searching for a new future. The stolen lands may be rough and dangerous but they also contain secrets, lost lore and power. Perhaps out here, surrounded by untamed wilderness, Vael can forge his shattered soul into something more......if the fire does not consume him. |
