Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 #1 Share Posted June 6, 2014 "Teleport! Nimbus!" Seldentar appears in a flash of blue light in the mountainous town of Nimbus. He had heard of mines deep in the mountains, and thats where he was headed. He wanted to get different metals to use for his crafting, and had even heard of a rare crystal ore that could be found if you went deep enough. He looked around, before heading out of town.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #2 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar spends some time travelling across the rocky paths, until he finds the opening of a cave ahead. He moves towards it carefully, he had heard that some of the caves near nimbus led to death traps designed to outright kill players for their greed. Plus, there was always the risk of a PKer finding him out alone. Since they couldn't enter the towns, they had to find other places to rest up, and safe zones in the dungeons and abandoned caves worked good for that. Hesitantly, he looks into the cave.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted June 6, 2014 He steps into the empty cave, looking around. To the side, he sees an odd looking shadow, and realizes that it must be a path downwards. Moving slowly but deliberately, he begins to descend into the mountains. As he goes deeper, he starts to hear odd sounds coming from the path leading into the next chamber. As he reaches the bottom, his hand moves to his sword as he sees the red cursors of enemy NPCs appearing in front of him. Link to post Share on other sites
Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted June 6, 2014 The first chamber he found, and already he didnt feel too good about this. The small mobs seemed weak, but the was a definite concern to him. He readies his sword, and decides to show fear would be to invite death. Instead, he rushes forward, deciding a strong opening attack was just what he needed. His eyes glow faintly as his concentration hidden skill activates. Even with his hidden skill, his attack falls short, and he misses the troll.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar quickly recovers from his failed attack, but the element of surprise is gone. The Enemy clearly has seen him now, and he has to prepare for the worst. Still, he has to keep fighting. Raising his sword up, he jumps at the Troll again, trying to cut into it and start to whittle down its hit points. It blocks his attack with its arm, but he still manages to get a good slice into it. His victory is short lived, as its giant mace smashes into his side. The Gnolls meanwhile, begin to try to surround him, putting him into a very bad situation.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar jumps up into the air, using the skill and motion assist of his to try to jump over the Troll and get away from the Gnolls. As the motion assist begins to bring him back down, he stabs downward as hard as he can at the Troll. His sword cuts deep into the Trolls shoulder, and the sword glows red slightly as it saps HP from the monster, healing Seldentar. He lands behind the Troll, away from the Gnolls.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar spins around as he lands, his sword raised. He jumps back slightly, then lunges forward. He is trying to stab through the Troll, before it can recover from his sudden move, even as he tries to change up his tactics to prevent the Cardinal System from learning his fighting pattern. However, the Troll quickly spins around, its giant mace smashing into Seldentar before he can make contact, and slamming him into the wall.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentars feet hit the ground, as he slides down the wall from where he hit. He sees the Gnolls moving between him and the Troll, protecting it now that half of its HP is gone. He frowns, but goes to work at them. If he has to hack his way through them so be it. Taking a swing at the first one, he finds his sword blocked by its own weapons. Meanwhile the other two slash at him, leaving red gashes in him as they start to whittle down his HP.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #9 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar is not to be deterred, knowing his best chance at survival in this kind of fight is to keep attacking hard and fast. He lunges at the first Gnoll again, trying to feint left and then bring the sword back across at the last second. It dodges his attack, and he narrowly dodges the second Gnoll. The third one, taking advantage of his being off balance, cuts into him.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted June 6, 2014 His cooldown over, he growls angrily. His HP was dropping fast, and it was time to show these things what it meant to kill to survive. He charges violently at the first Gnoll again, his eyes begining to glow as his Concentration skill activates. He misses the Gnoll, as the others move around him again.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #11 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar evaluates his situation. The battle repositioning has left him again between all 4 monsters, and the Troll, while it didnt actively move to pass the gnolls, was easily in range and would strike at him. He decides to focus on it again, the bigger target had so far been easier to hit then the agile Gnolls, and it was definitely the stronger foe. He jumps up into the air, again trying to jump over and past the Troll as he uses his for the motion assist. While it wasn't a critical hit, he slices into the Troll again, landing behind it and away from the Gnolls again.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #12 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar spins around, trying to slice through the Troll even as the Troll and Gnolls begin to react to his sudden move. It had worked twice now, but if he kept it up he was worried that the next time he tried it would lead to his death. His sword heading towards the Troll, he finds the attack blocked by the Trolls giant mace.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #13 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar jumps back as the Troll swings at him, narrowly dodging its attack. As his foot hits the ground, he pushes off towards it, lunging forward as he tries to impale the troll again. Blocked again, he is forced to retreat as the Gnolls attempt to surround him again, leaving the line of Gnolls between him and the troll.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #14 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar was getting tired of dealing with these Gnolls. In single combat, he easily could handle the Troll. But the Gnoll guards made this fight a lot more challenging. If they managed to surround him for long, they would easily tear him apart with their swords. He had to deal with them until he got an opening to go after the troll again. He chooses the middle Gnoll, to try to break their line. It easily blocks his attack, swiping at him in the process with its own counter attack.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #15 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar takes a few steps back, allowing them to come after him. He had been fighting offensively the whole time, it was time to let them come at him and counter attack. As he sees them come into range to attack, he prepares to block, and then retaliate. He manages to block the attacks, but defending against all 3 of them leaves him with no room to counter attack.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #16 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar takes a few steps back, as the Gnolls continue to follow him, until his back hits the wall. Luring them as far away from the Troll as he can, he jumps up and kicks off the wall to push him up and over the gnolls, and then rushes the Troll. His sword held at chest level, his eyes Begin to glow with his Concentration skill as he tries to finish off the Troll finally. While it doesnt kill the Troll, the familiar red glow as his sword drinks the HP and feeds it to him makes him grin as his HP slowly restores, leaving the Troll dangerously in the red.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #17 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Seldentar knows the Gnolls are moving into position, as they always do to try to get him surrounded. He kicks off the ground, trying to move before they can get into position. He has used this same trick twice already, but he needed to try one last time as he uses the motion assist from the sword skill to try to get away from the Gnolls. As he moves up and over the troll, he swings down at it. The blade cuts through the troll, as it shatters apart leaving nothing behind but the Gnolls +1 Loot Dice 16 Total! 80 Col Dropped Skill Cooldown: 5 Turns Seldentar: 12/17 Cave Troll: 0/10 Mountain Gnoll 1: 5/5 Mountain Gnoll 2: 5/5 Mountain Gnoll 3: 5/5 Link to post Share on other sites
Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #18 Share Posted June 6, 2014 With the Troll dead, he turns to face the Gnolls. They seem to have worked into a frenzy with the death of their leader. and are not nearly as organized, but seem even faster now. Seld launches himself at the first one, trying to get this over with fast so he can try to find the metal that was supposed to be down here. Missing, he feels its blade cut into him, watching his HP drop again.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #19 Share Posted June 6, 2014 While they werent working together anymore, their attacks seem to deal more damage now then it was. Frowning, he keeps up his assault, needing to deal with these fast before he was overwhelmed. He lunges at the first Gnoll again, trying to impale it. The blade sinks deep into the Gnoll, stealing some of its HP for Seldentar in the process.

Seldentar 0 Posted June 6, 2014 Author #20 Share Posted June 6, 2014 He continues his assault. He was not going to let this game beat him. He was going to win! Everything but those thoughs melted away, as he continues to wreak havoc on the Gnolls. He attacks hard and fast as they begin to frenzy more. With their increased speed, he can not seem to land a solid hit without planning his attacks out.
