After a few minutes of quiet trekking, Vinter spotted the tree with the mark he had left in the bark; a thin, horizontal slash carved with his dagger. "Here we are." He grabbed a hold of a low-hanging branch and hoisted himself up, planting one foot in the crook of the limb and reaching up for the n...

((It's been three weeks. Someone should play Talasadar for a post or two so we can get this back up and running.

With a brisk nod, Vinter turned and began to step away from the others. He'd much rather retrieve his belongings sooner instead of later. "Just follow me, then. We won't be gone long. Meet back here shortly." He glanced at Talasadar and Arisa for confirmation or acknowledgment, though his animal com...

Her words sparked Vinter's attention. Another shapeshifter? He was uncertain how to respond to this news; if he should resent her, understanding the ruthless ways of the nomads, or if he should be relieved that more rebels like himself made their way out of the woods. After a moment, his gaze soften...

((Doesn't matter to me either way. I think it'd be fun for us to play out her fight with the prince turn by turn. Makes it more challenging. I can control the other guy though, because he'll be dropping pretty fast.

"That won't be necessary. I don't like sharing victory." A vicious grin on her face, Xierra confidently made her way to the center of the ring. Tilting her head slightly to her left at the new challenger, she had to fight to restrain a laugh. "Now I get to shed royal blood. This day keeps getting be...

Xierra huffed, restless. She didn't want to wait for the two imbeciles two die out there, she wanted to shed some blood. "With all due respect, my lord... Allow me to fight in their stead. I will face Theracles' warriors alone." The last sentence, she spoke with fervor, raising her voice for all to ...

Deciding not to question the awkward stare he received from the stranger, Vinter turned to Talasadar and folded his arms across his chest. "When do you want to head out? My belongings are hidden on the outskirts of town; I'd like to pick them up before we depart." He absently reached down and ran hi...

Vinter broke out in a broad smile at the appearance of the one from inside. The cook, he gathered. The more the merrier, he reasoned. Answering for Talasadar, he said, "Welcome aboard. I'm Vinter." He extended a friendly hand out to the newcomer and the wolf by his side paced restlessly. -----------...

Vinter wasn't certain what to do. Of course he'd heard the rumors, but to actually follow a stranger and act upon it? He hesitated. It's not like there was anything better for him to do in this little town. He couldn't expect to stay forever, going nowhere. The wolf at his feet paced after Talasadar...

The night was still fresh when Xierra and Theracles made it to the edge of the camp. She eyed the other eight warriors warily. They didn't appear to be a force to be reckoned with, but she was certain she could kill all nine of them relatively easily if the need arose. However, she knew to uphold he...

Upon the appearance of these two new faces - well, one face and one hidden behind a mask - Vinter raised his open hands up in a signal of surrender. Stepping off of the man, he offered a weary smile of apology towards the one in charge. "My apologies, sir," he began. "This ruffian attacked my friend...

Once darkness fell, Xierra slipped away quietly, not feeling the need to announce her disappearance. Her companions were sure to notice before long. Approaching the outposts of the Ravenclaw encampment, she folded her wings in behind her back, straightened her shoulders, and threaded a few fingers t...

The first speaker wouldn't be swayed so easily. He brandished his rusty axe and spat at Talasadar's feet. His breath carried with it the smell of alcohol, and his companions faltered. "Perhaps you've had enough. The like of them aren't worth our time." The self-imposed leader of the group shook his ...

Vinter rose to Talasadar's defense, frowning at the aggressive strangers. He raised his empty palms in a signal of surrender, though Tirven bared his teeth at them in warning. "Peace, now. This man has done you no harm. There is no need for trouble here." Despite his words, he was already thinking a...

The demoness admired her superior's suspicion. Only a fool would trust her entirely, and she was most lethal when alone. However, she had no intention of betraying Wrath, at least not at the moment, and she returned his smile easily. Besides, two additional meat shields could come in handy if someth...

Xierra's mind was racing. The way she preferred to kill was a bit unlike Wrath. She would typically infiltrate an enemy clan, catch the eye of the leader, and once he let his guard down, she'd strike. However, she was beginning to learn from the mission that she only just returned from, that her met...

The smell of smoke rose thick in the air, as if something off in the forest suddenly caught fire. After a moment, Xierra seemed to materialize out of thin air, the dark vapor curling off her smooth pale skin. She looked stunning as usual, armor cut low to show the four red stripes that ran down her ...

A burst of cool night air rushed in to the tavern when the door swung open. The dark figure that emerged bore the name of Vinter, a name just recently beginning to circulate through the lonely little town. True to the rumors, a large, furry beast padded alongside him, drawing the attention of a few ...
