It begins

"What's it made from, out of curiosity"

"they tried. something about this material. completely indestructible. only dragon fire has a chance of melting it."

I'm invisible again.....*sighs and walks off in search of a clearing to set up his bedroll*

"you're not invisible. I was talking to you. they tried making penetrating weapons. they failed."

My apologies, you and 445 seem to have an interest in eachothers kit

OOC: cos my kit is sooooo interesting!

"I have an interest in your warfare."

In a nutshell, big fucking robots, flying battleships, giant robotic squid, did I mention the fuckhuge robots?
Electricity arcing everywhere, tanks rolling into combat, a giant mess of alliances and rivalry.

"Damn. closest we have to that are the few war balloons we have and the dragons."

You have dragons?....

"We have numbers... but I guess that's not important"

"yes we do. How tall would you say I am?"

Just over a foot taller than me....about seven maybe seven and a half feet

"I am not even a quarter the size of a dragon's eye pupil"

*clears throat* damn!

"they are like living natural disasters. a total of five have ever been killed in six thousand years"

The bugs interest sparks.

"You... how can you tame such a creature?"

"We can't. They are sentient. they can be reasoned with. but it is not easy"

"I want one" it says amazed.

"The first one to be killed was the foundation of our civilisation, its bones are the structure that holds up the temple to the gods in our capital"

*nods his head approval*

I want to ride one into battle

"They sound like creatures of godlike proportions"

"some think they are. but gods can't be killed. these can."

"My dear giant... You don't appreciate the implications of these creatures... they could change everything in our world"

Yea, they could burn it down

"Oh I appreciate them. I ended one."

The bugs face twitches.

"You... killed one?"

"Aye. I killed one. Saved my capital city in doing so. Carved its brain apart from the inside. messy stuff."

"Shame"

Not bad!
Tell me did you drink it's blood after you killed it?

"No. a dragon's blood is highly flammable"

Oh...shame

"you didn't strike me as vamparic"

Many things you don't know about me, on my planet they say that if you drink a dragons blood you will gain an extended lifetime

"uhuh. how old are you?"

*smiles* around a thousand give or take a decade

"I'm 3"

"Put it this way. I was alive a thousand years after the founding of my civilisation. My civilisation was founded over five thousand years ago."

Natural lifespan or augmented?

"I don't know"

Hmm *looks to the sky* nightfall is fast approaching

"Aye."

Shall we press on or find a spot to make camp

"don't care. don't need much sleep"

I say press on, my vision is highly attuned to darkness.
445?

"I vote we press on, making camp out here is dangerous considering we don't know what's out here"

"alright then"

It is decided *draws his sabre and starts walking away, cutting at any foliage in the way*

Bug boy jumps up a tree and scuttles through the branches.

my guy cuts through with his propeller thing

*after a while the come across an abandoned village*
