Of Beasts and Knights

Priest: "We do not know the power of the beast. Perhaps none."

Thorgar: *sheaths his sword.*

Vorstan: *Just looking at rosa with a mixture of awe and confusion.*

Henry: Perhaps all.

Rosa:... thanks.

Vorstan: "You did most of the work there."

Priest: "If it is that powerful, then allowing it to run rampant would be a heinous act."

Rosa:... true

Henry: And if it is, We can do nothing. It would only feed the beast.

Vorstan: "Speaking of... My sword."

Priest: "If we cannot defeat the creature, there is little hope."

She hands it back. It seems heavy in her hand now. "Sorty"

Henry: so we avoid it. Hope it burns with the village.

OOC: Rolling charisma check for vorstan

The member 'Captain Raeven' has done the following action : Challange Fate

'd20' : 6

*he drops the sword as if burned.* "damn it!"

Priest: "Of course sir..."

Rosa: ....you okay?

Henry: I'm sorry old friend. I understand. But we both know how dangerous such beasts can be, if nothing else than through sheer corruption. Better we burn it and leave than risk that.

Vorstan: "Did you hear singing?"

Priest: "Of course, of course. You are the voice of reason as ever."

Rosa:...think so.

Henry: I'm sorry old friend

Vorstan: "Agh. Come on she can't even lift you." *he kneels, and tries to pick it up again*

Priest: *nods solemnly.*

The member 'Captain Raeven' has done the following action : Challange Fate

'd20' : 14

*he touches it, and does not recoil this time.*

Henry: I've had my knights scout around for a good location to camp.

Rosa: sorry for taking that...

Priest: "Excellent."

Vorstan: *he picks up the blade, and spins it in a slow figure of eight.* "Its fine. Gifts from the gods are usually double edged."

Henry: how is he? The man I sent to you.

Rosa:... you think whatever I just did was a 'gift'?

Priest: "An apostate."

Vorstan: "I was referring to my sword. But also, yes. Regeneration is an often granted boon."

Henry: oh?

Rosa:... had this for a while actually. Been minor before now though. Managed to avoid wounds that bad.

Vorstan: "How long?" *he starts to unbuckle his right gauntlet*

Priest: "He believes sigmar has forsaken him. Daft boy."

OOC: He is Bretonnian, probably never heard of Sigmar

OOC: everyone has heard of sigmar. He's like warhammer jesus. And im pretty sure the french have jesus

Henry: *chuckles* better than heresy at least.

Rosa: weeks.. maybe months...don't know for sure. I don't even know how long ago I was taken.

Ooc not necessarily matt :P one has to find some religion if you cant worship the lady

OOC: I'm not sure about that, they are the French.

Not allowed to worship Sigmar too iirc

OOC: A quick google says they have to worship the Old Pantheon, so Ulric and his lot.

OOC: They'd still know about sigmar.

Priest: "Very true."

Vorstan: "The gods gave you a gift, so you could survive." *He continues to unbuckle his gauntlet*

Henry: other than that?

Rosa:...why?

Priest: "I am unsure if he is mentally sound." 

Vorstan: "Why do the gods do anything. " *he removes his gauntlet, revealing darkened tanned skin, covered in black tattoos.*

Henry: sure?

Rosa:...right. Honestly for all i know i've been like this since before they took me. Didn't really get hurt before then.

Priest: "He maintains quite... well cheery, despite hiding beneath corpses from a murderous chaos entity."

Vorstan: "Well... We'll see won't we." *The skin of his palm tears like hot wax, revealing a blue irised eye.*

Henry: a facade perhaps?

Rosa:...you okay?

Vorstan: "A gift from tzeentch. I can have glimpses of the future." 

Priest: "Perhaps. Or perhaps he is truly insane."

Rosa: oh... you saw anything about me?

Henry: your appraisal? advice?

Vorstan: "I saw you fighting, with an axe in one hand, and a sword in the other."

Priest: "I know not what to do with him."

Rosa:...so what just happened then. 

Henry: think he could be useful?

Vorstan: "The vision was correct, so it seems. Which is good. It's why i didn't let you die."

Priest: "I don't know. He has seen the creature."

Rosa:..thanks. *looks at herself* Dunno if I would have actually died.

Henry: and lived.

Priest: "True indeed" 

Vorstan: "Heigen would have killed you. Unless your gift can bring you back from decapitation."

Henry: then... he's either got something going on, or he's very skilled at stealth.

Rosa:...don't wanna test it, but wouldn't be too shocked at this point.

Priest: "Perhaps we should keep him close, to watch him. if nothing else."

Vorstan: "Then he would kill you again. and again. And quite probably repeat killing you ad infinitum, until the world drowned in your blood."

Henry: good idea.

Rosa: he'd get tired eventually. Or thorgar would tell him to stop so the army could move.

Vorstan: "Probably. I can't imagine the experience would be pleasant. Now, if you don't mind, shut up."

Priest: "Hm... You and your waifs and strays."

Rosa:...

Henry: what?

Priest: "Picking up the lost wherever you go. You should start an orphanage."

Vorstan: *he takes a deep breath, and closes his eyes, the one on his hand remaining open. It's iris changes colour to a deep purple, and starts wildly darting from side to side, as if trying to look everywhere at once*

Rosa watches him quietly

Henry: *chuckles* maybe one day.

Vorstan: "Hmmm... Its... hazy."

Priest: "When you're old and decrepit."

She doesn't say anything still

Henry: don't think Aegon here would be too happy about that. *strokes the demigryph's 'main'. it just glares up at him for a second.*

OOC: "Mane"

Vorstan: *The eye closes, skin fusing back over it seamlessly, and he reopens his eyes.* "Nothing."

Priest: "I would hate to be on his bad side"

OOC *slap*
IC Rosa:... alright then. Shall we...get marching then?

Henry: you didn't have to subdue him *chuckles* Still got scars from that.

Vorstan: "Had best take up the rear."

Priest: *bounces the hammer on his shoulder* "I think i'll stick to walking. The gods gave us legs."
