OoC @Gear: Dunno who that is.

"Yes. I would appreciate that. This is rather frustrating." Erica said to Laguna, then looked back to Drayven, crossing her legs. "Truly? You haven't heard of this? Travel between dimensions has become more common place in the last century or so." As she said this, Erica pointed to her amulet. "The magics in these amulets alow the user to open a portal to other worlds. However, it doesn't seem to function here, for reasons unknown to me. Anyway. If you haven't heard of this, then I assume such magics are yet to be discovered in Alinor?" Once Weizoth and his wraith entered the lounge, Erica shivered at the cold it brought. She glanced over to the wraith, but didn't spend more then a few seconds looking at it.

"Yeah. I've been here for just a few hours, and already I've seen enough o f people to remind me exactly why I don't like them." Logan replied, jerking his head at the screen. "If they want us to fight and kill each other, that's fine. That's nature, when it comes down to it. But torture like that... that's all humans. I've been called an animal in the past. And people who say it seem to think that's some kind of degradation." He snorted derisively.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

@Nail: The "NANOMACHINES, SON!" guy.

Laguna nodded to Erica. "Same here. Anytime you wanna talk, just say the word." He looked around a bit. "Also, is it just me, or did it get chilly in here all of a sudden?"

 

[Outisakanobody]

Jack looked over at the screen for a moment before going back to his drinks. "...Torture seems...bad." he said, nodding sagely after he meditated on the matter.

 

[Random berk]

Drayven's brow furrowed as he shook his head slowly.
"No, there is no such magic on Alinor." He replied. "And when last I heard, no such magic existed anywhere. It certainly has not existed for a century." As it grew cold, he drew his robes more tightly around himself, though he did not shiver.

"Yeah, no shit." Logan muttered and took another shot.The cold didn't seem to trouble him in the least.

Not wanting to have to deal with even more regen, Rex rushed up to Greed's slowly regenerating body and switched his hand back to its gauntlet form. While the knee injury made it hard to move, he quickly and savagely drove an electrically charged fist down on the collection of muscles, down on the point where he had seen the stone, aiming to crush the thing. If this wild overhead smash connected with the ground, it would create a large metal dent. Doing this caused Rex to spit out a decent amount of blood and have to clutch his stomach in pain for a few moments.

[color=000066] Man.... Fuck homonculi. This sucks. [/color]

Carmen looked over toward Drayven as she finished her drink. [color=bb0066] "I'm very well versed in fire, wind and illusionary magics, along with having a set of spells passed down to me from an elder demon. Each one works on the essence of the nine circles of hell..." [/color]

Feeling the chill, Carmen's wings folded around her subconsciously before she looked toward the wraith and Wei, tail swishing in annoyance.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"...Who was getting it? An who was doing it?" Jack asked Logan out of curiosity. He grabbed up a bottle of scotch and prepared to drink it.

 

[Random berk]

"Demons? And Hell... another race, I assume. And Hell, this is some city of great magical influence? Or another plane of existence?" Drayven asked as he began to write, his ancient, keen mind running through the limitless possibilities involved in magic.

"Some big bastard in black armour. Ripped apart a kid. Literally tore her limb from limb. But he did it slowly. Let her feel it for as long as she could stay alive." Logan growled, staring down at his whiskey glass.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"...Black armor. I'll look out for him then. Poor kid..." Jack said as he looked down into his bottle of scotch. "Can't really think of someone who deserves that...Well...maybe, but..." he added after a swig.

 

[Drakmorg]

Since no one addressed his presence, Weizoth continued to stand against the wall and flip through his book. His Wraith looked around the room. Though it had no visible eyes, those in the room could feel its gaze fall upon them when it looked their way. It felt distinctly unsettling to be looked at by the creature.

 

[Chungus]

OoC @Gear: That still doesn't say anything to me.

"Truly? This is odd... I wonder why, at the very least, word of this kind of magic haven't reached Alinor." While Erica did have a theory on this, she didn't voice it, thinking it would most likely offend Drayven. She looked back to Laguna and nodded a single time. "Yes. The cause of it is, most likely, that ghost." she answer, pointing towards Weizoth's wraith.
[hr]
Not having regenerated enough to be able to roll out of the way, Rex caved in the chest of the torse. While there was no telling wherther or not the stone had been destroyed, the regeneration seemed to stop. Momentarily. Eventually, the bones of the limbs reformed, folled by the muscles and sinews. Now being somewhat able to fight back, the stil regenerating Greed delivered a kick to Rex's chest, meant to push him away, rather then do actual damage. Once Rex was pushed away, the body stood up, skin now forming over the limbs and most of the torso, except the hole that was left by Rex punching Greed in the chest. The body clumsily walked backwards once the hole and the head reformed, this again, taking no longer then three seconds. "Ugh..." Greed grunted once all the damage was restored. "That sucked... I probably won't be able to do that again, so..." Cracking his spine, Greed hardened the skin of his entire body, it becoming the same dull-grey colour his forearms had been. The armoured skin covered Greed's genitals, ensuring he was decent, even without clothing."Time to get serious... I really should've done this right from the get-go. Greed's voice now had a slight echo to it. After cracking his knuckles, Greed chrged up to Rex and aimed to deliver a straight punch to the face.

Carmen nodded a bit. [color=bb0066] "Yes. Demons are a race. And Hell would be considered a plane of existence, its main purpose is to use the souls of deceased humans and cause them to work in servitude for another chance at life as a demon. It's quite fun to torture a few of them honestly..." [/color] Carmen said with a small giggle. Feeling the Wraith gaze on her, Carmen turned to Wei and sighed. [color=bb0066] "Sir, could you put your pet away? I've had more of my fill of seeing it." [/color]

[hr]

Rex stumbled back as he was shoved back and groaned under his breath as he simply took a small breath to focus himself. As Greed punched at him, Rex swayed to the side before taking the arm in his hands and delivering another shock into Greed's body, though the boy looked a bit winded as he did this.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Laguna looked at the wraith. "Kinda... creepy, isn't it?"

 

[Random berk]

"Hmm. Is this magic in widespread use? Are you certain that it has been around as long as you say? Tensions between my people and yours may be high, the recent conflict in Skyrim having so obviously been as a result of actions by the Aldmeri dominion, but it is impossible that they would have been able to keep such an art secret from us for so long. Indeed, if it had been around for as long as this, then we would have discovered it in the Great War, and I saw nothing to suggest that the race of Men possessed such a power." This said, Drayven turned back to Carmen.

"Something like a Daedra then? I see..." He was silent for a moment, frowning as he considered this, then began to write it into the book.

 

[Drakmorg]

OOC: Eh, not really feeling it today.

Weizoth took in a shallow breath and grunted. He left the Lounge and went back to his suite, his Wraith following behind him and continuing to stare at everyone in the room before they were out of visual range.

 

[Outisakanobody]

OOC: That awful moment when one of your guys in XCOM misses a shot with a 97% hit chance...made worse by the fact that he payed for this miss with his life...

 

[Gearhead mk2]

OoC: @Outis Reload the save, run like hell.

 

[Outisakanobody]

OoC: @Outis Reload the save, run like hell.

Yup.

 

[Chungus]

Erica hummed in responce to Laguna, not wanting to say just what she thought about it. Looking back to Drayven, she nodded. "While I can't say for just how long this magic has been used, I can say it has been at least a century. On another note, I wouldn't call the conflict arising as a result of the Thalmor pratically anexing Skyrim recent, as the Thalmor pressence has long since been driven out." Once Weizoth walked out of the lounge, Erica blew a near silent sigh of relief.
[hr]
With more electrcity coursing through his body, Greed fell over once more with a heavy grunt. The arm Rex had grabbed growing limp again as a result of the electricity, Greed used his free hand to attempt to deliver a blow to the elbow of Rex's outstretched arm.

At the back of the furnace, the burners began emtting a low humming noise.

OoC: Sorry for the late reply. :x

 

[Random berk]

"It was 12 years ago." Drayven said. "Perhaps not recent, but recent enough that it should..." He trailed off and then shrugged. "It does not matter. I am certain that the civil war had nothing to do with it."


OOC: @Nailik Now that I think about it, I never did come up with a date for the end of the war. Shall we say 4E 207? Three years after Dromaeus killed Alduin. Without his involvement, I think it would have taken longer to resolve.
