Slowly, resolutely, his arms fell to his sides. Had someone strapped lead weights to them when he wasn't looking? The lines on his skin burned, but the pain seemed further away than ever. "Matra," he tried to say, but his voice was still gone. “What’s going on?” She forced her mouth to shape the words, but her sluggish lips barely formed them and it came out as barely a whisper. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. No, this wasn't right.

The Wandering Wizard he/him Posted February 14, 2023 Report Share Posted February 14, 2023 11 hours ago, Telrao said: Telrao fell, the ground approaching quickly. She howled and managed to right herself in the air, legs spread, trying to slow her speed. She cringed as the Kaos tigers lashed at her, claws almost grazing her fur. She yelped as one managed to whack her side, causing a flash of blinding pain. Her Elantrian body managed to quell that pain, but tears still sprang to her eyes. She stared at the ground, as it grew closer... closer. She closed her eyes and sent a small plea. Help. Please. The tiger drew closer and closer, falling towards its prey. 15 hours ago, The Aspiring Archivist said: TAAron Pushed himself up higher and held it, extending his time in the air. He could think faster, but his thoughts were still a mess to sort through. 16 hours ago, That1Cellist said: “Curses!” Shark thought, ignoring the internal screaming within himself. Thankfully his silvery scales were quite strong.”Not nearly strong enough though.” He pondered as the sickle sliced him. How was TAAron fairing? What were they going to do? Shark but the nearest extremity of this demonic spider thing. His thoughts became more primal and instinctive in this battlefield scenario. “Can I eat this?” 59 minutes ago, Thaidakar the Ghostblood said: Clinic: Roof Thaidakar blasted the tiger away from whoever they were being attacked by. Thaidakar turned to the spider, "You will fail her, spiderling, spider-person, spider-demon, spider- ya know what, I'm just going to continue the fight." Thaidakar reached up, power spewing forth from his hand and catching the blades. Thaidakar gritted his teeth as he pushed the blades back at the spider. This wouldn't hold too long, but it was something. The blades began humming a violent tune, vibrating with kaos as a beam of darkness blasted back into Thaidakar's power, pushing him back. The spider clicked, "you are an intriguing one. Unlike the others, you have true power. The Kaos is a greater power little one. Tell that to your god." 1 hour ago, Aes Sedai said: Clinic: Roof Rue rolled her eyes, but followed suit, launching balefire at the spider. @The Wandering Wizard 1 hour ago, UnfortunatelyNamed said: Clinic: Roof “Tea does sound good. Perhaps after we finish saving the clinic.” As Thaidakar began his attack on the spider creature, Nameless backed him up, launching a stream of fire to attack the servant of Kaos. @Thaidakar the Ghostblood @Aes Sedai The fire and balefire smashed into the Spider Queen's armor, a blinding light shone as the balefire struck, but it dimmed as it was absorbed into her armor. The liquid white of the balefire traveled down her armor and flowed into her blade. Grinning the Queen swipped the sickle towards Nameless and Rue, unleashing a bar of glowing black light that was tinged with purple. 16 hours ago, Being of Cacophony said: Clinic: Roof "Stop you? No. But utterly destroy you? Absolutely." Platypus rolls back and the fangs only graze him. Then he continues slashing, taking more and more off of him, using less and less energy as he progressed. "You're no match Wizard. There are two of me, one of Lark, and about to be zero of you." Platypus grins. Wizard is missing about 5% of what he used to be. (For context, I'm imagining that the first slash took off about 0.5% of what he had, so Platypus has slashed 10 or so times.) @The Wandering Wizard The tiger cackled, "you poor, poor, FOOL! She calls us, she calls us and we come." 13 hours ago, CalanoCorvus said: Light Pool Calano looked at Wizard. "Let's go," He said, "I'm ready now." @The Wandering Wizard "Very well." Wizard's paw swipes the air infront of him, cracks of light split the sky as a forest path appears. Leaping through Wizard begins padding towards the thicket of trees. Vines hug him as he begins silently padding through the tangled woods. 1 hour ago, Shadowed said: “What’s going on?” She forced her mouth to shape the words, but her sluggish lips barely formed them and it came out as barely a whisper. 5 minutes ago, xinoehp512 said: No. No, this wasn't right.

Leaning in close, its massive eye fills the space infront of X, hypnotic waves of fear falling from it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immortal Platypus Posted February 14, 2023 Report Share Posted February 14, 2023 1 minute ago, The Wandering Wizard said: The tiger cackled, "you poor, poor, FOOL! She calls us, she calls us and we come." Clinic: Roof "You fool. I saw Wizard. I talked with him. He was there you are nothing but an impostor!" Platypus yells, driving forward. Quote At this point, Platypus' blades are going fast and hard enough that he'd basically slash right through just about anything. so the taking the hit strategy he used earlier wouldn't work, Platypus would just cleave through him and keep going. That's what I'm imagining at least, if that wouldn't work, you're welcome to correct me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coins plink against her armor and shatter, the metal spraying around the mad Queen. Laughter spills from her as the fight pulses through her veins. "You all are amusing, children wielding their parent's weapons. Let me show you how it's really done!" The pools of liquid Kaos metal flow towards her, pooling around her feet.

As an example, if someone channeled into it while focusing on a bar of balefire, it would create the Flame of Tar Valon. If used on shadowspawn, it would create a weave to kill/destroy them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He readied to use the power that he used to destroy a realm to destroy the spider and Kaos... and... and... the spider was thrown back by a sudden burst of energy, but nowhere near the scale of what Thaidakar wanted to happen. He tilted his head, "Now of all the times to not just blow everything up. What the heck is wrong with my powers..." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
