The riders keeping charging, a lance ramming hard into your shoulder in the mess of hooves, lances and daggers. It takes a horse in the leg and drops it. Kaleb leaps up, throwing a rider off of it's horse and taking hold of the reins. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AltonicKeys he/him Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago After following some archers around and refusing to take the longbows several quartermasters offered him, he found his way on top of the wall walkway. Larry flips out a stand from his blaster rifle to rest on the crenel, barrel poking out of the battlement. He opened his scope and pulled out his stock, turning the compact one-handed C-11 blaster into a full-length sniper rifle. He ignored the looks that other archers were probably giving him and surveyed the opposing back lines. Quote Are there any obvious commanding officers in the battle? Or any mysterious hooded figures, probably wielding rods of light? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote There is one knight in the back with a fancy helmet that could be interpreted as some kind of imitation of a crown.

They miss, but do cause much chaos among the people in the army, who are seemingly charging a wizard. Many of them reel back in fear, but the commander urges them on. A group of about thirty archers raise longbows and fire up at the wall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of them reel back in fear, but the commander urges them on. A group of about thirty archers raise longbows and fire up at the wall. He grinned as he pulled the rifle away and hid behind the merlons. "Like a god," he says as he recalls his original plan on the mountain. He waits a few seconds and returns to his position. Knowing he likely won't hit the knight in shining armor, he fires more openly into the crowd, trying to avoid those facing the enemy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(It would be hard not to.) Soldiers raise shields, but those are quickly blown through by the blaster. (Weak, wooden shields that are hardly enough for arrows, let along guns.) The army spreads out, the commander shouting commands in a stressed voice, in a language you don't understand but can tell he is trying to get his troops back in order. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonheir he/him Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago 5 hours ago, The Stormfather said: The riders keeping charging, a lance ramming hard into your shoulder in the mess of hooves, lances and daggers. The lance dislocates Nick’s shoulder, despite the shock absorption. “Ow.” he says, feeling no pain. “Note to self: add ways to reset bones.” He’s knocked back and to the side, due to his poor anchoring, but he manages to clip a breastplate with the rust bacteria infused tip of the stick. He’d have to track down one of the spearheads, if he actually wanted to use it, but the spreading conversation of armor to triangles would hopefully give him an edge. Nick watches his fellows wreck havoc as he waves the tip of his stick around near the ground, picking up small amounts of rust with its magnet. Then, he sprints through the battlefield to the catapult, jumping over soldiers that try to stop him with hydrogen induced lightness, tagging metal weapons and armor with his stick, accumulating a bit of rust each time. Around half way through, his bush branches have been drained dry and snapped, and there is a small point on the spear, with the vacuum system in the middle. He rams it into an enemy soldier, injecting him with a stabilizer and sedative producing virus while sucking blood out. The man would live - in fact, this way he would survive bleeding out and heal infections - but he’d quickly fall unconscious, and then require lots of food in a day or two, after the virus wears off. Knowing that he could now actually take down enemies, Nick stops moving, figuring that Larry could take out the catapult if needed. He switches to trying to cut his way through to the commander, drawing, filtering, and electrolysis-ing blood to hydrogen by stabbing those that attack him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
