The Strangers Pleasure: Reunion.

[Nehemia]

As the dusk turns into the night, the mountains grow with crimson, sky fulfills with blood. The fire burns in the city like scarlet veins. Night settles in, stars grow within clouds cover, the sky rains blood.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
OOC: It is time to for reborn of the Strangers Pleasure. A brief background of what happened:
Everything started from cozy tavern at the harbour city. Everything was peaceful, until the orcs and mahirim came. After some insults, the fight started in the tavern. In the middle of the fight the orks surrounded the tavern and it caught flames, creating an huge torch of massacre.
The mahirim and orks decided to bring backup to raid the city. While the members of the tavern decided to defend the city under siege.
The catapults started throwing flaming mortars into the city, orks slaying the innocent. While a band of magicians are rescuing the citizens, the city's militia starts to take act. The Fireblood Brotherhood becomes aware of the fight in their city, and begins their own counter attack. The city gate is soon to be breached and ork backups driving into the city.
Now the battle of the city is far from over. Everyone who had been in strangers pleasure I and II are invited. Tell your friends to join to decide the fate of the city, and to turn the tide of war!

Nehemia looks on the rooftops with worried look, the orks have sieged the harbour and the militia seems to have no match alone..
I wonder who the others are doing, hope Jeffrey and others are getting the citizens out..
Nehemia suddenly turns around, drawing his blade and slicing ork into stomach, jumping over orks height and kicking this into the face. The wounded ork fells of the roof..
Hope this is not the end of this town, I liked it here...

Fawa Fawia licks the sweat from his lips as he climbs westward up the steep, dusty slope. Mirdain just weren't made for this kind of travelling, he mumbles as he drops his sack to the ground with a jingle. The rosewood staff in his right hand, smooth from years of use, bites into the ground with its raudstaal tip. Each step closer to the ridge brightens the glow from the chunk of crystal inlaid in the other end, this crystal that gains power from the energy of its surroundings, but the glow goes unnoticed by the tired traveller.

Home. It's so close. My wife, my kids, I wonder if they asleep yet. I've been gone so long, I wonder if I'll recognize them. The childern were so small when I left... Will they even remember me now?

He looks back at the endless savannah that represented the last few months of his journey, sighs, turns forwards, and takes the last few steps to the top of the peak. Anticipation lurches in his stomach. Is he actually nervous about comming home?

This is gonna be a nice sunset. It's amazing how red the sky is! he thought, just before the town comes into sight over the hill.

The landscape that meets his eyes is nothing like he had pictured. The sky is red from the blazing fires, not the sunset! Fire arose from the buildings and rained down from the sky. Looking away from the city, an outcropping of flat land halfway down the mountain swarmed with movement. Pigs? But that means... and sure enough, the south side of the city was full of ork raiders who had left their mounts away from the fight.

This battle has obviously been ongoing for a long time. I am in no shape to save the city by myself, but where are my brothers? We must save our wives! Our homes! We never expected this little town to even be found, let alone be attacked. I must DO something, but first I must think and rest.

[ETARR]

His mouth is filled with lust for the blood of the wicked as they cry for help and then surrender to his superior blade skills. He is merciful so he does not kill them even though they are wicked but he thinks about it for a while.

You are wicked but I will not kill you because I am good and if I killed you then I would no better than thou. Go now to your wifes and children and rejoice for the battle has ended.

He has tricked the enemy! They will now leave and the city is safe. Even our wifes and homes will not be ruined because of my superior blade skills. The wicked have fallen before my blade and shall not return in this life...

[Nehemia]

OOC: the city is safe? Haha.. First Etarr, even if you were an demi-god you have no match against this amount of orks by yourself. Second we do not want godlike roleplaying here. Your first post will not be counted, please next time post an introduction of your character, and go with the lore and no godlike.
Thank you.
Game-Master of The Strangers Pleasure, Nehemia.

ooc: well nehe you started about this thread so i dug it up ;) :P
------------------------------------------------------------

"i WILL drink my ale dammnit!!"
pheonix mumbled. then a huge rock crushed the last barrel of ale
pheonix's pupils widened and he stood up in rage.
"who..."

-----------------------------------------------------------
ooc: havent read the previous :/ sorry :P

[RavenLord]

OOC: Dunno where you were drinking, Pheonix, but the taver itself burned in the beginning of part one :p

[Jeffrey199]

/ooc I'm here, I think I was fighting crazy Orks, who were all protected from fire magic, after getting the innocents to safty. I tried putting out the spreading fires, however I believe it soon overwhelmed the mages. Well once things get going and my memory returns I'll post in character.

[RavenLord]

OOC: Nehe, hope you don

[RavenLord]

OOC: Well, I just saw the lower portion of Nehe

[Nehemia]

Nehemia looks from rooftop down at Kyron.. "So, now he decides to ask for help?" Nehemia mutters and shifts to his left and jumps over another rooftop, but for his luck he notices mid-air that there is no rooftop, it has been destroyed by catapults stone.. "oh' feck it." He lands uncomfortably on table which cuts into two. After cursing his luck, while sitting on his butt on the floor, he hears voices and turns his sight from the floor "...Geez'" He looks at two orcs having fun with mirda

[RavenLord]

OOC: You made her up, deal with the consequences :)
--------------------------------------------------

Bring the woman along. She must be taken to safety. Meet us at the alley.
Kyron

[Jeffrey199]

This is getting us nowhere. Jeffrey decided. "We're gonna have to retreat..." he told his companions. Then he signalled the remaining mages in the city whom had scattered to try and stop the spread of the fire to make their way toward the center of the city.

[RavenLord]

OOC: Just a reminder, Jeff. Center of the city, aka market place is the gathering place of orks and mahirim. Retreating there would be pretty...interesting :)

[pheonix blckbrd]

i was drinking in wat was left of the tavern. and i found one barrel of ale wich now is crushed too. so i fight for justice and ale atm :P.

if i understand correctly the city is a mess orks n mahirim are already in? and more are coming from outside? and you guys are fighting em off?
----------------------------------------------
pheonix walks out (what you could call out- from an burned down crushed building to the street) and as a few(3) mahirim headed his way with his sharp claws pointing to him he incanated.
quimallada
two of the got trown into the air by the explosion and the other pushed down to the ground.
with that he bought himself some time to search the city for companions. then he saw these thieflooking guys killing a few orks with their speedy daggers. one left looking at somewhere up. but pheonix came close to the group of thieves fighting the orks.
throwing some fireballs along the flying daggers pheonix tried to start an conversation.

-----------------------------------------------
help me out here so i get a better grasp of the situation :P

[RavenLord]

The city is far beyond a mess..it

[pheonix blckbrd]

ooc: yeah oke ..... rrrrrrrrrrrrrewind.....
------------------------------------------------------------
pheonix was wandering the plains with just his axe on his back and a light armor on his body.
"those damn alfar and their necromacy"
pheonix was bandaging his arm wich was slightly damaged after his fight he just had.
"not to self... never provoke an alfar... there are likely to be more"

with that he suddenly noticed some uproar on the other side of the hill...

"a fight?"
pheonix fastened his pace and once he could look over the hill he saw. the little town he was hoping to get some rest and ale was under siege. there was about 2 miles between him and the town and orcs and mahirim were sieging the little town.
"sigh, guess theres no rest for me yet."
pheonix started to figure out how he could reach the town without getting noticed.
-------------------------------------
2 miles before i get there, raven help me out here. how do i get best to the town? do a one man raid trough their backlines? or in a boat along the river? or walk around? i prefer the fastest way ;)

[Jeffrey199]

/ooc You know that, the soldiers know that, but all the mages know is that the city is burning... We haven't been jumping roof to roof.

Sighing a huge relief at the soldiers in the center Jeffrey ran toward them waving to get their attention, the two thiefs and 1 mage were right behind him. The others would be coming shortly.The one of the thieves grabbed the collar of his robe and dragged him back... but too late the Orks had seen him.

"Idiot!" The theif screamed at him.

Jeffrey nearly choked at the sight, or maybe it was the stranglehold his robe had on his neck. "We're overrun... everyone run." Jeffrey sent up a signal to the remaining mages, wherever they were to flee the city... hoping they would see it before confronting the rabid Ork's.

Mustering the last of his strength Jeffrey brought the smoke in from the fires to cover them... normally a simple task, however he had been casting all night and the task proved to bring him close to collapse. The other mage helped, but he seemed exhausted too.

The thieves only watched more concerned if the diversion would save them than if the mages would be alright.

[RavenLord]

OOC: Hmm...you could swim, but there is an orkish ship in the water...not many bests are left outside the city...most of them will be inside by the time you get there....you could just go over the wall....

[gtechie]

OOC: I just wanted to say, I really enjoyed reading through the original story, and I hope we can get some ppl back here to be the bad guys again...

As Fawa continued to observe the orks from his perch, he saw a lone human running up his hill not too far away. They were barely close enough for the druid to catch the horrified look on the man's face, but the axe carried on his back told Fawa enough about him.

Alone, neither of us will be able to do anything down there, but maybe he will be willing to pair up.

As Pheonix ran past a bush, Fawa made it reach out and catch the man's arm. It was as if the druid himself had a hold on him. The grasp was firm, but as soon as he grabbed hold he let loose.

Well, either he'll kill my plant and think nothing of it, try to kill me for attacking him, or he will see my actions for what they are and we can talk...

[Nehemia]

When Nehemia heard Kyron's words he gasped.. "Hell' no I ain' a babysitter!"
He turned to the crying mirda

[pheonix blckbrd]

pheonix continued toward the city and came by orkish encampments wich where abbandoned not too long ago. one of them green beasts was cursing and swearing, obviously beceause he had problems with weapon since it was broken. pheonix slipped behind him and with a quick strike with his axe the orcish back was more like a crater. then he reached city on the west wall. he knew at the south the gate was and it was overun. so he went looking for a place where he could start climbing.

ooc: well? where? ya gonna drop me a ladder? ;P
