A War Of Houses - Playground 7, WoH RP thread Options

[Megil Tel-Zeke]

Ordinators-plaza, New Vivec

The ordinators turned the corner onto the plaza to see the air filled with debris. they drew their weapons and approached the debris. They could see a silhouete of a man walking in the dust.

"Who goes there?" an ordinator yelled. the group spread out to surroung the man.

[DoomedOne]

Wred
New Vivec Plaza

Wred pivoted his body around and rotated his sword outward (as though some camera were winding around him). His black mask and hooded clak covered his body, though his armor was still revealed beneath it.

"Just us chickens!" he called in his deep, foreboding voice.

[Megil Tel-Zeke]

Ordinators-plaza, New Vivec

"oh a joker are we?" the ordinator signaled to the others and they dashed into the mist towards the figure.

[DoomedOne]

Wred Halius
New Vivec Plaza

Wred flung his sword around to meet the first of the foes to meet him, and heaved his sword forward to ram the guy away. He then turned around and intercepted a second ordinator, pushing him forward sword first to shove him to the side. He stepped aside allowing the next two ordinators to clash at his previous position, and flipped his sword around to strike the back of a vulnerable foe.

He used to terrain to his advantage, stepping strategically so he could use strange chunks of ground elevated above others as leverage tp give him more power, using it to catch his foes off balance and strike them down, swinging nimbly about, aware of every sneaky little strike that came his way.

Front Gate, New Vivec

"ah, well you started off on the wrong foot.  Seeing the way you chose to  enter the city I assume you have no money.  There are several way we can deal with this, and the choice is yours."

Front Gate, New Vivec

"What are my options?" Cedris had slowed his breathing to normal.

[ShogunSniper]

Amili, New Vivec

Amili thought for a second before speaking again. She turned to the bosmer. (what revolting creatures!)

"Follow me from a distance and I will lead you to Melkaan."

Melkaan would be more convinced to have her along if she was the one to kill the assassin...

"Er, uh," the Bosmer looked at Endris and he nodded to him, "...Okay," he finished unsure of himself. He stood up as Amili did and followed her to the Telvanni District...

[BobV]

Anthanes - New Vivec

"You may be interested in the knowledge that the one who ordered the demise of a mutual friend happens to be the head of house Hlaalu. But then again, they're prolably going to give you enough bribes to ignore this, if they haven't already. Though I doubt you care." , Anthanes said casually.

[minque]

Akar, Zergonipal

Akar sat down, overwhelmed by the thoughts surrounding him, assaluting his mind. He tried to focus, but found it very difficult to concentrate on any one thing, there were so many voices...

He finally stood, still disoriented and unable to focus on what was going on around him. He remembered something about finding En'fel...

He decided that he might as well practice keeping the voices out, so he stared at his boot in an effort to concentrate. He finally got to the point where he could ignore the voices.

He didn't know how long he had been doing it, but it couldn't have been too long because everyone was still there.

He walked towards Serene. "Mom? Where was I going again?" he asked, not quite sure of how he was to find En'fel.

Serene, just before leaving for Ald´ruhn

"Saryn....I´ll give you a name that´s in my head: Amili...the lady of Fire....she is in New Vivec....I´m sure, that is the best lead I can get you.....but you have to use your powers my darling, you have more powers than you can imagine.....I also get a vision of Sadrith Mora..but it´s vague...very vague. I have a feeling that the lady Amili is extremely important..I don´t know why..yet"


Serene, Under Skar Ald´ruhn

She knew the councillors would support her and her mission, one question was still to be answered..."

"Where is Ravvin at the moment?, I´ll have to meet him it´s very important"


OOC: Where is he, Ravvin, really I have no idea at the moment?

[Megil Tel-Zeke]

Ordinators-Plaza, New Vivec

The ordinators had underestimated the man, and began to perform more calculated moves. they circled around him and began a series of simluteanous organized attacks. they all lunged at the figure in the center of the cirlce. on came down with and overhand swing and several went low. the swords where coming down on Wred ina ll directions an inescapable trap for no matter which way he blocked, there were a half dozen coming in the opposite direction. should he duck low he would be sliced by the lower blades, and should he jump his skull would be split by the powerful overhand swings. Give the situation he would try something, not being able to calculate in those split seconds that should he not move the swords would not touch him at all but simply pin him down.

Registrar's office, New Vivec

"Well you can pledge your services unconditionally to the ordinators (of course assuming you can pass the trials), take on a debt with a 25% monthly interest, or if you have a certain talent, you can be placed in an appropriate setting and recieve pay, 50% of which will be deducted until the debt is covered.the last option is to sit in a cell for the next 2 months doing the crudest labor, reciveing no pay and meager food. and should you choose to escape, well I believe you have already met the one you would deal with then."

Megil-Hlaalu, New Vivec
Megil was enraged by the accusation of being bribed,

"how dare you accuse me of being so brittle Anthanes," megil hissed gritting his teeth his eyes gloing brighter.

"I don't care if Isaarin had someone killed, you shall not kill him in this city, hunt him elsewhere." and without any notice swung the sword at Anthanes.

Anara, New Vivec

Anara's admantium spear caught Megil's sword in the mid-swing. "Now now...we can handle this peacefully can't we Megil?" she asked. "No need for excess violence against friends."

Some Redoran Dude, Ald-Ruhn

The Redoran looked over at Serene. "Serjo Raavin is in New Vivec, he should be returning soon, but as I understand he's attending to some business in the Redoran section of New Vivec, so If it is urgent going to New vivec may be more wise."

sasal
nev vivec, front gate

sasal stepped back as he yelled at the mage neer the gate "hey! we are here for an inspection from cyrodill! Where is you commanding officer! I wish to speak to him!"

sasal gave the order to form a defensive positon infront of the gate as his mages prepaired to burst the gate open

"sigh, i thought i wouldnt have to argue with anyone today...." sasal said as he sighed

[BobV]

Anthanes - New Vivec

Anthanes smirked.

"Let's not be brash now, shall we? It seems you don't have an interest in preventing the part of Tamriel that is located outside the New Vivec city limits from collapsing on itself, hm?"

The half-dunmer turned around and began to walk away.

[minque]

Serene, Under Skar Ald´ruhn

Serene thanked the young Redoran retainer that told her where to find Ravvin, so many people were gathered here at Sarethi Manor, it was hard to even get one´s voice heard. everyone was upset over the last events in the Grazelands, and most of the Redorans wanted some kind of peace.....well that is not to any price...and House Hlaalu was not liked the least, they were the worst enemies.

Serene decioded to go to New Vivec immediately. She knew the city was ruled by Megil Tel´Zeke, whom she knew from the Arcyakt-ordeal, and also liked quite a bit. She hoped he would see her and also that Ravvin would..that is if she could find him!

Saryn would probably be there as well......

"Amili......Amili..." there it was again!, What part does that lady play in our lives?"

When Serene declared that she was going to New Vivec Athyn Sarethi immediately said he´d accompany her, leaving the rulership of Sarethi Manor to Brara Morvayn and Hlaren Ramoran...

Serene was touched by the offer from Athyn to come with her, he was not that young anymore, besides he suffered from a wound in his back due to the event during the Battle of Ald´ruhn that nearly cost him his life......

Serene took his hand and asked him if he was comfortable with the option of teleporting to Vivec.

"If you say so, Serene my child," Athyn smiled......

Serene placed Athyn´s arm around her shoulders, put her arm steadily around his waist and activated the teleportation-amulet.....

[DoomedOne]

Wred Halius
New Vivec Plaza

Every attack strategy has a hole in it, Wred knew this to his bones. With each surrounding swipe they attempted he simply pushed his sword forward to block one incoming blade and ram himself out of the trap in the opening he made himself. It was difficult, especially with the on coming sweeping blades. Every time he managed to escape their trap, they simply rotated around and gave an even tighter push.

He could read an attack well, and not only defend against it, but plan many moves ahead to catch his foe off balance and strike him down. Dozens of attacks, those were harder to navigate. He could barely read where every blade was coming from let alone prepare to defend against. Read them he did, however, and he read at a perfectly right moment to stand perfectly still, and the blades swept by him. The hole in their strategy was found, not in brute strength or sharpness which had only kept him alive the last few goes, but following their trap to it's source. They were a peace-keeping force, trained to fight in a peace-keeping manner, meant their goal was to disarm him.

They probably did not count on his enchanted blade, however.

When they pinned him down, all his momentum left him, and he barely push his blade forward enough to lightly tap one of the guard's legs, but he did, and his sword drained the energy out effectively, loosening their hold over him quite a bit. Though he could not kill them, he managed to force men to rub up against his blade quite a number of times, draining their energy, causing him, in his mock-struggle to loosen himself from being pinned, to break free.

No time for any further dancing. He decided to plunge. The hole, it was there, as the torn up road drilled crevices into the streets. He plunged for the sewer tunnel, or whatever is was, sword in hand.

[Megil Tel-Zeke]

Front gate, New Vivec

"Inspection from cyrodiil? what are you mad, stupid, or both? The empire has left these lands. Cyrodiil, the legion, the deceased emperor, none have any power over this land. Now state your real reason or head back from whence you came. Oh and don't event ry casting a spell at these walls or gate, just some warning."

At the top of the towers two strange objects where pivoted and aimed at the group outside the city. Archers on both towers got arrows nocked in place, and ordinators began to file up on the otherside of the gate. the cloaked woman left the shadows and stood in front of the ordinators a very wicked blade in her hands. Of course the enchantments on the gates and walls would dissipate any magical attack sent to it.

OOC: umm yah dagoth carlos yo really should understand the plot before you jump in. the empire isn't in vvardenfell so there would be no inspectors fro cyrodiil, since the empire has left the territory.

Megil-Hlaalu, New Vivec

Megil looked at Anara, and then back at anthanes and at all whos tood with him. he recomposed himself in doing so the rain outside stopped. he sheathed the sword.

"My apologies. far too much stress these days." as he said this his mind was baraged by several messages one from the gates and one from the undercity.

"Damn it why can't you people just leave this city in peace like you have for the past 5 years." he left the hall and began muttering to himself. In the process activating several aspects of the defenses. The first was a general defense one that would have a city wide effect. Magicka was drained from all mages in and jsut outside the city walls, they were drawn into the hidden gemstones deep in the heart of Vivec.
The only ones unaffected where the elite mages in the ordinators who had hidden on their flesh a special isignia of vivec, and Megil who also carried the mark ut his slightly different allowed for his use of the stored magicka. The second defense was that large gears in the undercity began to move, the passages of the undercity began to rearrange themselves, some passages dissapearing and other being formed. the laberynth had been remade.

Megil walked patiently with the air of power to the front gate, where he waited patiently for Sasal to make his move, hoping the man would leave and not instigate anything.

[Dantrag]

Amili, New Vivec

Amili was walking out the door when she felt drained of her magical energy all of a sudden. She began walking considerably slower, hoping it would return soon so that she could use it to dispatch this aspiring assassin...

Akar, Ashlands

Akar was trekking through the ashlands, with his skooma pipe in his mouth. He was glad to be away from people; he didn't enjoy being assaulted by anyone and everyone's thoughts within his general area.

He still didn't understand why someone didn't just teleport him to New Vivec, but he didn't mind the walk. He hadn't had a vision yet, but Serene had told him that he would. Hopefully that wouldn't be as bad as the mind-reading powers; if it was, he might have trouble sleeping...

He took his pipe out of his mouth and put in in his pack as he walked through Al'ruhn's gates. He was going to ty to find his mother's house, but he didn't know where to start. Giving up, he paid for silt-strider passage with a skooma vial, and ended up just outside of New Vivec. Seeing that there was some kind of commotion going on outside the gate, he decided to take a different approach. (too bad he knew nothing of the city's defenses..) He activated his amulet, making him blend in with his surroundings, and jumped into the water, hoping to get in through a sewer access gate.

OOC: I'm only making him do this because dagoth carlos usually takes forever in replying, so...yeah.

[Channler]

Falx Albarnias
New Vivec Plaza

From the rubble a light moan erupted, it grew louder before it stopped. Falx had layed there for some time unconcious after the fight. He stirred a bit, and then pushed himself to sit up.

His body ached from head to toe, with much pain coming from his right shoulder blade. Falx twisted to inspect it only to find a rather large chunk of flesh torn apart, some even missing.

"By the gods.." He groaned as he pushed himself up against a large part of the pavement that had been pulled up from the ground, "I.. shouldn't.." His jaw clenched as a rock fell loose and collided with his shoulder.

The fog, dust, and rain obscured his vision, so instead of finding someone he just simply called for anyone, "Please, anyone! Help me!"

(OOC: Falx is pretty torn up, missing a chunk of his shoulder, several broken bones, his brains shakin up a bit and the pioson is still in effect...)

[Megil Tel-Zeke]

Ordinators-plaza, New Vivec

the group of ordinaotrs where amazed at the man's escape, but they did not worry for no trespasser could ever survive the undercity. they began to clean up the debris when the heard the muffled voice crying for help.

The ordinators ran towards the voice and after several minutes of removing rubble they pulled out Falx.

"He is seriously injured, we need to take him to a healer."

They carefully lifted the man up and ran off to taking him to the HOJ infirmary where the best healers were to be found.

[Dantrag]

Akar, New Vivec, Sewers

Akar was about to burst; he had been holding his breath for quite awhile. He found a grate and lifted it before swimming as quickly as he could through it. He went to the surface and took a deep breath of sweet air. He looked around him; he was in the city's underworks. All he had to do now was find a way up to the city surface. There had to be some sort of maintenance access somewhere...

[ShogunSniper]

Amili, New Vivec

Amili was walking out the door when she felt drained of her magical energy all of a sudden. She began walking considerably slower, hoping it would return soon so that she could use it to dispatch this aspiring assassin...

Bosmer Assassin (damn, forgot what name i gave him...) -- New Vivec

The Bosmer was walking behind Amili when he saw her stumble a bit and slowed down her walking pace, 'Uh, Miss, are you Okay?..." he asked timidly.

Endris -- New Vivec

Endris was working on paperwork when he felt a bit odd. He held out his hand to find that it was trembling a bit; similar to what happens when one is hungry, or runs out of Magika.

He turned his thought back to his paperwork when he thought about he sword he had ordered a while ago. Endris stood up, walked out of the Morag Tong, and began heading for the Redoran District.
