Thrylos

Sorry, guys! Troubles with A move soon to Orcas Island. I'll still try and finish, but no promises.

Hello guys!

Wow, so late to write this...

I know I have been inactive for quite a long time. My reason: Will be moving to Orcas Island, one of the San Juan Islands, right next to Washington, and lots of things are going on. Soon, on June 22, I will be COMPLETELY inactive for two or three weeks moving and unpacking in or rental property for a year, then moving again into a real property. See you guys again later after I'm in the land of rainy rain rain-well, maybe not THAT rainy, but after Colorado it feels that way.

((Also: for more on my situation, I will try to update my Tumblr constantly: http://rainyboltbrony.tumblr.com/))

((OOC: Hi, guys. Thrylos here! Sorry about my absence...I'll probably be a little gone for some time...my parents have officially sold our house, and I am moving out in a month. While I'm having trouble with my life changing, I would like for Crescent to take over. Do well, bro. *brohoof*

Some things...Crescent, Nexi's plan for Draco is to train him secretly beyond the mountains. The changeling dragon thing is there, and my thought is that one of the council members is the changeling dragon, and is both gathering info and trying to push them into a war they can't win...other then that...see you in a month and two weeks... ))

The look the unicorn gave the snowy white pegasus left her jittery, and Elarra was surprised, but blushed wildly as the dashing stallion teleported over and kissed her hoof. "Ooooh..." Elarra grinned, and the teenage filly felt a happiness like none other...then, like many times in town, all of a sudden everypony was fighting over her, and she flew a bit higher up and hid herself behind some leaves.

"It-t-ts o-o-o-kay..." Suddenly, a wind blew by, and it seemed as if time slowed, her light blue mane flowing as if it was Celestia's, cheeks rosy red, wings outstretched majestically...

((Been blogging, back now!))

Zeke gave a sideways look at Crescent Blaze. "Of course I know you, Cresecent, but things have changed a bit." The griffin glared at him. "Sorry, but superior forces have me stuck in a position where I MUST stay here and question, even more then before...you may go. You know about the passage the zebra took. It supposedly knows more than even you..." Scorn filled his voice, even calling Nexi an "it."

--------------------------------

Nexilli sensed the dragon pony, and the deeper she probed with her senses, the more she found. This pony really did hate himself, in many ways, and sorrow filled her up. Amy's wishes seemed fair to all of them, considering what could happen to the poor boy-no, she wouldn't consider him a beast, but an honoured guest-after all the ruckus outside. He needed her, and she needed him. The blind zebra turned towards the area where Amy was, not being exactly on target, and nodded.

"I will take him in. And Draco," Nexi turned to the boy. "Nopony is helpless. If a zebra who goes blind after knowing sight for so long can learn what I have, then a young colt like you can do much more than I ever have. Now come on. We've got some work to do." With that, the zebra placed a cloak over Draco and stepped outside, waiting for him to come out.

Thrylos hopped to see what was going on, and saw a bear cub, groaning and wriggling as the bleeding cub got slowly to its paws and began to wail to the sky. The pegasus filly fluttered over to it and looked at the little furry creature, then smiled and licked its fur. The feeling was comforting to the bear cub, but man did it taste horrible on the fillies tongue!

Dusk smiled. "Theres no need to ask to repay me." The sunset yellow earth pony sighed. "I might as well grab a drink myself to help calm down."

Zeke laughed. "No reason to be shy. So, what are you doing here at the camp? Are you looking for shelter? Its understandable, considering the war going on. I've even faced the other sides soldiers, who had defected. We watch those ones closely, but some have become very trusted and wise members of the herd."

---

Slowly Nexilli stepped out into a noisy hullabaloo, which was ended with the sound of the blind zebra moving some ropes and such, disgusted and angry voices from the crowd, and slowly the crowd dispersed. Nexi really didn't want to talk to anyone, but knew if she had to she would face Amy first. Quietly, the striped zebra went through the camp and slipped into her tent, to barge in on a questioning. Decidedly, Nexi sat in a corner and decided to make a mental picture of the pony. By the shifting of the air, he was a pegasus, but the air currents his wings made were...off.

((Just a made-up character...My ponysona, actually...))

It had been late that night, when after flying practice Rainy Bolt had gone out to explore. That was, until she got discorded...

Rainy Bolt was known for her loyalty, though sometimes forgetful, because of the loyalty her friends had given her. She humorous, forgiving, and kind as well, but her generosity and honesty usually went down. Yes, she lies and doesn't exactly like giving and being generous, but her generosity is the friendliness she gives out like candies, but in the end comes out with the same good friends. Still, sometimes all of her goodness goes down the drain when she is betrayed...

The blue pegasus with metal wings stepped down from her perch on a cloud(losing real, flesh and blood wings doesn't destroy a pegasi's ability to walk on clouds), she looked into the dark forest of Everfree and laughed.

"Hellllooooooooo!!!!" "Hello, hello, hello..." The echo was an ominous ringing in Rainy Bolt's ears, who laughed at the darkness. Slowly, she walked deeper into the forest, sending echoes about the forest and smiling. But as she stepped onto a bridge, Rainy looked across, and the filly's eyes widened. "Hello?" The only sound was an echo, then a scraping sound, like metal on wood. "Oh no..." Rainy leaped into the air just as the bridge fell into the darkness. Slowly, she flew with her metal feathers over to the other side, and a fog lifted so their was only a shadow, a shadow she recognized, with dragon wings. Staring, the form rushed of and as anger filled her as Rainy ran after the form, her body slowly grew darker the more she felt betrayed.

"THRYLOS...!!!!!!!" "THRYLOS, THRYLOS, THRYLOS..."

Inside, the griffin cackled, then smiled sweetly at Hunter.

"So...just a colt, huh? Congratulations. Youth is a beautiful thing, isn't it?"

((Theres going to be mostly back and forth lots of talking, so mostly one-liners.))

I will *mostly* let you guys choose the power of your weapons and armor, but heres the rules to follow.

1. All weapons add their full power to attack, while armor and/or shields add their full power to defense.

2. Half the power of weapons, and that number gets added to the defense, the opposite with armor and shields

3. Your base power adds to both, and power is out of 20(no higher unless with reason)

-------------------------------------------

Okay, here goes nothing:

Storm Dragon Base Power: 12/20

Genetically Reinforced Dragon Scale armor adds 10 defense

Weapon adds 15 power.

Which equals 27 full attack, full defense 29

These numbers are just an idea, so don't go into the role-play saying "With my power 20 Fire-imbued rapier + my base power of 30, I bash in the dragons head, with his 45 defense."

Some people will start looking at you weird because its no D&D battle.

((hmm...I guess for now the alicorn is out of this, but I'll probably have someone else come in...I really need to make a young character after making old Murky.))

The griffon smirked and grabbed Black Hoof again, then glared at Pro. "Well, look who the cat dragged in!" Calmly, Zeke placed the colt back down on the chair. "I'm much easier on foals, so don't worry." Nexi gave a reassuring wink before grabbing Pro and Runner, pushing them away.

"I can tell that Zeke will be just as harsh, but never has he made accusations without reason to believe your trouble. He'll just ask some questions, and make some intimidating stares, but other than that isn't that bad. Black Hoof will be okay." With that, the blind zebra turned back to Black Hoof, then gave the griffin her look, because having no pupils can give people a freaky advantage with staring. "Don't do anything funny, bird." Then Nexi left the place, and another trickier passageway was her destination. Checking about, Nexilli Zecenda placed her hooves in a circle of desert mushroom, and with a flash was in the earth, traveling at high speeds towards the base...

((OOC: Probably me.))

The inquisitor returned the cold stare, as if to say the same to him, then turned about to set eyes on Nexi, and though she couldn't see his eyes growled nonetheless. Only Amy, a blacksmith, and some others, respected her years and experience and treated her kindly. The inquisitor was a thin, ragged griffon with a skinny face and a sharp hooked beak that could slice through some metals, but had never been used due to his peaceful wishes upon joining. Any spies he had caught had been let go to run away with their cries for mercy. So far, the griffon's beak hadn't been used, but only members knew that. Nexi had never seen that beak, but just the tense filling in the room when she had joined had been enough to tell her something, along with, the inquisitor seeing her blindness, had forced her to feel the tip of his beak, which had pricked without even pressing. Nexi shivered, and whispered into the new pony's ears.

"Don't freak out. He looks fierce, but that beak has never been used. They put him to work here because he didn't want to be a warrior, so they put that beak to good use." The zebra tried to smile, but it came crooked and Nexilli Zecenda backed a bit before turning to the inquisitor.

The griffin cackled. "Foals first." The griffin then grabbed Black Hoof and sat him down at his interrogation desk. "I am Inquisitor Zeke, but just call me Zeke." The first interrogation had begun...

A small bear cub thrashed in the bushes, just out of sight of the ponies, stuck in thorns. It held back howls of pain, because the bear had learned that such a small cub could easily be plucked up by wild animals. But trying to escape, the thorns dug deeper into the poor things skin. A low growl came from its mouth, the only way to let out the when without screaming it to the skies. One fateful day, a small flash flood had swept the cub away, and he had survived, but would die soon without learning how to hunt.

((CrescentBlaze: Go ahead and build off of it! No problem with me! You'll learn more about how disrespected Nexi is in camp.))

Nexi walked slowly down the sands, striped hooves crashing into the sand that, annoyingly, muted every feeling she had to do with sense of touch. Her ears and nose worked fine, but she felt ultimately near-sighted. But, there was one change in the sand that felt slightly like hooves...still, there were nearing the mountains that blocked view of the camp, and the old Appleoosa that had been burned to the ground. Slowly, Nexilli Zecenda stopped in the ruins, and sniffed about before stepping into a ruin and dissipating suddenly. On the floor of the house was a rug, and under that a hatch. This was the entrance where strangers were to be brought too, so that they could be monitored before being known as trustworthy and being shown the REAL camp.

Dark Bolt glared at them both. "You don't know who I am! Nobody ever did! They just didn't understand!" His voice was a deep royal, which was weird when you were looking at a small pegasus and his voice comes out like that. "Even you go away, you'll never really be away. No matter who I meet, they're always scarred emotionally. You guys were lucky enough not to learn who I really am!!!"

WILDEN! what does Scout say about his power level?! ( )

anyway Crescent is pretty awesome, his sword Night Fire is undeniably awesome (pic to come) what's your judgement on his power level?

also how would armor play into things? would it be its own power rating that adds to the total?

EDIT: this is about as close as I can get to how I imagine Night Fire the main difference being that the blade is a dark, nearly black, opalescent chrome and the hilt has a reflex curve, and a slightly larger crossguard

Armor is probably adding to power on the defense side, weapons are both, but halved when used to defend.

And yes, I like to think Storm Dragon is around Crescent's ability, even if not even close in personality.

:wail: :wail:

You ideas are awesome, but you just have to put them into free-for-all.

Ink Soul's eyes widened at this, but sighed. "Then...I can read it in the shop?" Ink hoped dearly that this was fine, and looked intently at Gray.

((...Wilden's story is passing separately, so it can go any speed. And Dunder? He will post whenever is best. I won't pressure him to fit his character into any old spot.))

"Canterlot...that that I'm the snobby, fancy-pants kind of colt..." Hops said, thinking about those ponies and sticking out his tongue. "Bleh...I'm Hops, if thats what you ask."

Dark Bolt's laugh was malicious and cold. "You don't say? Sorry if I sounded like I meant it, but trust me, my voice is always like that. But what if the filly had had a real sword? Good luck with contending with bleeding to death." The alicorn then swished his tail. "And I'm no royalty. Yes, I have a royal family, but I was banished and now I hide in this country even though I should be long dead. You may get in trouble for even speaking to me if the guards knew, so don't take this chat lightly." Then, the black alicorn put on his old concealment spell.
