"Ear tweaking? Better not even risk the walk." Sel muttered as he sat down.

OOC: lol I only had Sel say that to start some activity in the thread...




Mage

Actually, Alton, Arcyakt began. Those daedra owed me a favor and granted it - I can't get another. I can come if you want....

Alton looked up and noticed the archers reading their bows. "Right flank! PUSH FOWARD!" As soon as the command was called the constructs raced forward in front of the main force, speedily closing on the bridge.

Hmm, fine then, I need a distraction of the sort though. If those mages have enough time to focus all their spells I will lose a great number of soldiers...

The archers held their arrows knocked.

As the constructs charged, the mages unleashed spells of ice and fire. freezing constructs into place, and melting others into red glowing pools of molten metal.

"Do not aste all your energy yet, Megil said. knowing this was but a sampling of the army.

Alchemists worked non stop withinh the second level of the canton, producing as many potions as they could, of restore Magicka, and Health,

A messenger approached Megil,

"Sir, there appears to be a sickness spreading within the citizens in the cantons."

"What kind of sickness, do we know. I want all those who show symptoms to be isolated, that includes soldiers. send some priests from the temple to deal with this.

Megil knew that somehow the poison had gotten into Vivc, probably from a refugee or something. He also was glad that he had the entire city of vivec seperated hours before the incoming refugees. the army had no contact with the inner cantons, expcept the first few, that had been evacuated of citizens to be used as barracks.

The first of the constructs entered the far end of the bridge and began charging acrossed it,only 70 strong, while the rest of the flank held back a bit.

Good...

"Archers! On me!" Alton led the archers right behind the charging machines...

Mage

Arcyakt smiled - he liked spellcsating....

He teleported himself to Vivec and noticed some frozen constructs and some melted ones...that wouldn't do, wouldn't do at all.

He focused his casting on the mages - indirectly, of course, by casting reflect on every single construct in the city.

Proud of himself, he made his way to stand beside Alton. "What's your plan here?"

"Those mages should soon realize the error of their ways...even a dispel will come back to bite them in the boat."

We have company, seems the commander can't cdo it, so Arcy has come himself Sheogorath warned, You may want to sieze magic

Megil cursed beneath his breath. He did not need arcyakt here. he sent word through messengers telling the mages to sieze. he did not want the command to be said outloud, the enemy couldn't know that he knew.

A few mages, soon found out why the magic had been siezed. not listening they hurtled spells at the constructs, only to see them hurtle back at the caster.

Megil looked at teh water below, he knew there where huge serpentine creatures beneath the surface awaiting his command.

the barricade was holding back the constructs, gashing at them, and tearing some to bits.

a messenger arrived with news that one of the trebuchets was finally built.

"Good, let them suffer as fire falls down on them from above"

"Nice of you to stop by" Alton was slightly distracted as the army was just engauging the defenders on the other side of the bridge.

"This is only fraction of the vanguard, and when the time comes and blitz should be in store." Alton unsheathed his sword, "Now if you excuse me.."

Alton jumped into the front lines, among the spears and the metal blades, and quickly started targeting the infantry commanders.

One man, in the rear was shouting out orders, "Hmm, first target." He managed to mutter before leaping over a man and slicing the backs of his legs. The commander began shouting louder and pointing at Alton as he inched forward, occasionally ending the life of a peasent or warrior as he trudged closer.

At this time the commander drew his own short sword, Alton merely laughed. Charging the man brought up for a high strike, one that would of worked if Alton hadn't grabbed the man by the neck and lift him off the ground.
"Please... have mercy!" The man shouted.

Dark red blood dripped down Alton first as he squeezed, the man squirmed but couldn't get away. Then Alton felt a the weight of a dead man upon his arm.

Numerous contructs followed in behind Alton as he clashed his way inward. So far at least several of the machine groups had made it across the bridge, overwhelming the human, and mer defenders.

Mage

Arcyakt watched as Alton went into battle and sensed far more life around than there should be in Vivec...he looked into the water. Sylphs? Weren't they extinct?

Watch out for sylphs, Alton. Arcyakt warned. They will come from the water. he added, just in case Alton didn't know what a sylph was.

They must have caught on to his reflect ploy - not very much magic was being used.

He looked above to the trebuchet. That couldn't be allowed to stay...

He readied a rather nasty fire spell to burn the wood, but saved it. For when the enemy needed it most.

Ha, I knew it, well how do you think they will deal in their own poisined water?

At once Alton called the 13 Imperial battleships to move forward, they close in around Vivic and took massive fire from above.

Good, go ahead, sink the ships..

Another dead soldier lay on Altons blade, he managed to pick the body up and fling it at the person behind him, possibly killing him.

"Move forward the rest of the Vangaurd!"

5000 more constructs started moving across the bridge...

Shakur kept walking and could hear talking, though not of this plane. For the first time, Shakur could hear the Seven. "This is too risky, power has been taken from his plane and we can't tap the coming, we can't let him do th-" Reinus was interupted by Curse "He will fight, and he will fight without knowledge of the coming. We will watch, we will wait and we will not help him and that is all".

In an instant huge serpents burts from the water, their scales a myraid of colors due to the sun hitting them. They lunged forwards, crushing constructs beneath their scaly bodies, and snapping at others. Even though there weren't but 50 of them, they were holding back the constructs. the machines weapons incapable of breaking through the scales.

there also emerged sylphs in their feminine form. only someone who had encountered a sylph could tell you that the serpents and the women where the same race. And none who had seen this ever lived, with the exception of Anthanes, and Megil.

the sylphs moved fluidly through the defenders, like a silent stream of water, attacking only the constructs with javelins, and swords.

Megil, watched the constructs. Good, let us take them downa sphere of water forming on his palm, and growing larger.

Don't target any of the constructs, instead target the ground, That way when it hits, it is no longer a spell, but water. then it will splash onto the constructs, corroding their chassis and gears. Sheogorath advised Megil.

Megil smiled, madness was indeed brilliant.

He sent the sphere of water crashing in front of the constructs, watching as the after tidal splash, corroded several rows of combatants. those behind ran into the ones that were no longer functioning, grinding them into a fine dust.

OOC: you do know that you're suuposed lose, right? but no matter - Arcyakt will use the same logic with his lightning.

IC:

Arcyakt had a devious plan formulating in his head. He thought about it for a second - what was the best way to do this?

He cracked his knuckles and began the proper movemnts and incantations.

Soon, the water all around Vivec was frozen - the sylphs would no longer be able to move about in the water.

OOC: may i point you to AMU thread 26, page 12. second poast

Alton and a large number of constructs were trapped on the other side of the bridge when the new attack came, "Hmm, clever aren't they?"

"Bring the boats closer!" Alton shouted, and whithin mere seconds he recieved the word that must of the boats were sunk beneath the shadows of the Cantons. Altons eyes lit up, "Good, I sure hope the Sylphs care for the water"

When the ships were damaged far enough they blew up from the inside out, as a powder keg would. But instead of just simply blowing up, they spouted a dark green sticky goo. When this touched the water it sunk right away, right to the bottom of the water, slowly, then much faster, letting off a strong poision the change the water from its normal colour to a much darker, black. That it choked the air out of the water, and whatever it stuck too cause hindered it from moving. It was only the first step in the plan though.

((OOC: Be back in a bit))

OOC: when you are in water, expect to be shocked.

*promptly deletes page 12 of thread 26*

seriously, lose, so we can get this RP overwith. I want a new one.

fine...he'll use a different spell then. It was a better idea anyway.

OOC: why must Vivec fall? it is far more heavily defended than Ald'rhun. it would make more sense that it survive instead of Ald rhun. I think the others should flee to Vivec through the mage's guild. and let the final showdown take place. it makes more sense than ald'ruhn IMHO.

IC:

Megil smiled, he went deep into meditation as hed tried to contact teh spirits of the sylphs.

"break free from your bonds and run again as free as the sea"

Nothing happened for several minutes, then the ground began to shake, and a deathening roar broke ou across the ice, it had begun to crack. the vile poison remaining frozen and sinking to the bottom.

OOC: So...when did ice get the ability to sink?

This post has been edited by Dantrag: Aug 14 2005, 03:02 AM

since poison is not water.

water is rare in that when in a solid state, it is lighter than the liquid state.

Err.. I think not, I don't think you understand my poision (or my ability to spell either)

It rests on the bottom of the sea floor, and then lets off a gas, which is light then water. But see the gas attracts most oxygen molecules and simply rises it out of the water.

Really it just kills everything in the water and its horribly difficult to do away with.. so no, If you get Sylphs I get to poision the water

So if you just froze the water, which I'm not sure if you did (Make your damn post clearer) then in all honesty the compassion is to hot and it'll just melt the ice...

lol arcy froze the water, but alright your poison makes sense, and i'll agree to it. O.o
