So a new RPG group is starting!
I my self have been playing very shortly in group 35, and have been playing one RP where we sat down and talked about it. I really feel fascinated about all this RPG. And since the groups currently are full, i figured why not start a new one. And here i am!

It is gonna be quite fast paced, normally 2 days deadline. If you miss the deadline too many times without a reason,

I will at no time take control of your character, it is yours alone, and I will not make decisions for you, .

In case of a dialogue I will normally postpone modpost.

All action whether it being scouting, repairing or you name it, will be my decision to choose the amount of success. This also includes combat, I won’t throw any dies, but will keep combat in your favour unless of course you don’t use your head. This also include the better your fighting posts the better combat goes – normally!

So this will be the rules.

If any questions feel free to ask them in this thread.

If you want to join this group, I will like you to add you Character in this thread. If it is in the Character Creation thread, a simple note is also okay then i will add it.
Spoiler: After a short prologue you'll start off with being raiders to the old world. Here you have to bring back as many slaves as possible. And create the biggest havoc throughout their world! I believe in you!

Name: Kailleth Blackthorn
Class: male warrior
Stats: 5ws 4s 3t 3d 3i
Age: 121
Height: 5’10 (short in elf terms)
Build: lean and muscle,
Face: dark steal blue eyes
Raven black hair to mid back length
Fare pale white skin (typical of an inside life of the city)
Tattoos: 1 tattoo on each forearm
On the rite the rune of loyalty
On the left the rune of discipline
Equipment: Light armour, shield, 2 long swords
(All his equipment is of good quality and is well maintained)
(All robes and small closes are black in the style of Hag Graef and rather worn)

Kailleth Blackthorn was a young elf in the city of Hag Greaf, he was born to a simple life with his father being a high ranking retainer and family guard to one of the Nobel Families of the city, Kailleth never know his mother and learned at an early age not to ask his father about her. Kailleth was trained in his duties as soon as he was able to hold a sword and aim a crossbow. In the hope he would one day fallow his father’s footsteps. As a youth he spent half his waking day in the training yard, drilling and sparing with other young druchii and off duty guards. The other half he spent in his studies of history, war and his favourite obsessions, the dogma and texts of Kaine. Kailleth was trained in the art of the sword the spear and crossbow and to diligently respect his armour and weapons, and above all to obey ones master and to lay down his life if asked without question.

On his 100 year Kailleth became a family guard to the Nobel family, just like his father. He performed his duty for 10 years with without question until one tragic night.

It was just past the hour of the wolf when Kailleth was harshly ripped from his chamber by other house hold guards. Confused and disorientated from a blow to his head during the struggle in his chamber, Kailleth was dragged in to the mane courtyard and Thrown to the cold marble yard. As he got his baring he looked around and saw the just under half of the other guards were also in the yard some seemed to have been yanked from bed like him, the others looked to have been in fights and were wounded.
His eyes took little time to august to the night time gloom, as he scanned the perimeter or the courtyard he made out the figures of other druchii with cross bows standing solder to shoulder, he didn’t recognize there heraldry, but after a minuet he realised that not all the soldiers were unfamiliar to him. He counted about a third of his follow guards with them. Backstabbing fiends he spat. Before he could cures them any further a tall Druchii walked out onto the balcony from their masters bed chamber, he had his war helm under his arm and blood dripping from his gauntleted hands, he looked out over the mass of broken and beaten guards, With a wicked smile he began to speak.

Welcome to my new home! He said opening his arms in a sign of welcome. I am fain tairnis your new master, I have just taken this estate to settle an old debt. He weekly chuckled to himself then continued. As you might see . . . some or your fellows have already swore their oaths of loyalty to me, I will now give you the opportunity to do the same. He paused for affect then looked over his shoulder and nodded, then one of the guards was dragged out to the balcony and thrown on to the railing so his head and arms daggled over, (it was Kailleths father) with the same smile he spoke again. If you chose that old loyalties die hard like this old wretch. Producing a small dagger Fain pulled back the head of Kailleth’s father, so be it! Then opened his throat.

Kailleth has never forgotten that night. Most of him died that night as he whacked his father’s exaction.
He mindlessly went throw the act, he swore his oath and carried on as a guard, for a time, after some months Kailleth made his escape it wasn’t grand spectacle or daring feat, he simply on duty one night said he heard something outside the main gate and went to check it out and never turned back.
From that point on Kailleth has played the trade of a mercenary not caring weather his life has purpose or if he’ll ever have a family, he has never tried to fill the void in his life with vengeances because he knows it is pointless. So now spends his days looking to kaine for a path to travel, and money to fill his purse, the only think Kailleth has left is fight for is to stay alive.

Please note that this goes for everyone in the Character creation pool.

Evazorek, please note that your character post contains a lot of words and because the paragraphs aren't clearly seperated it's really hard to stay in line with the words. Other then that, giving your sword special features isn't quite as allowed as you might think. Master Crafted for example is something that has to be done in-game overall however in a background story you always decide whether an activity succeeds or not, so keep in mind that your character doesn't have a runed, all destroying sword in-game, just for balance. I think I speak for all if I say that its best if the runes AREN'T activate. I'll be honest though, I've made the same mistake with my first character and gave him a sword called "The Dragonslayer", I gave the sword more power then I was allowed :P So, Senluthan, before you accept characters, read their background stories thoroughly and also invite players from the pool itself, there are enough there to play(One even has every class for you to pick one :P). I can reassure you that Dreadlord has a valid, not overpowered background story since he's a good RPG'er and knows the boundaries through my first RPG :P

I love role play(both RPG's and LARP) and I wouldn't mind having 2 at a time.

My time schedule is too tight for moderating a group, yet playing in one might fit perfectly.

The deadline schedule for beginning moderators(and players) is best to be at 3 days tops. This way you can begin slowly and get used to the responsibilities and time consuming work you have, instead of throwing yourself into the deep and drown. Dreadlord has Dyslexia, if anyone else has it, he/she should come forth as for why they might have so many spelling errors.

I would like to join, and function as a... source of advise for how you might get a good way in both combat etc.

Senluthan wrote:All action
Note that your words might confuse people. In this case, it could mean that you'll even decide if our characters walk according to plan.

On the combat area, every character has his/her own personality, therefore has his/her own favoured style of combat. Evolving your character from a brash youth to a incredible leader is an option as combat fairs in your favour, but keep it realistic, if you got a character that knows how to handle a sword or a spear doesn't mean he/she knows he/she's an expert on close combat. Considering the backgrounds(when containing such) as a valid thing to assume as the standard battle tactic. Mine for example doesn't contain a battle tactic so that leave open the question of "Which tactic does she use?". Consider that as something I didn't want to decide directly but more in terms with the required situation(she's trained in multiple style so that only makes sense ;))

Anyway, hope you'll consider me(and the other moderators) as an information spot when you're in doubt(always handy when 2 moderators are in one group, especially when one is a beginner and one is experienced.) So... good luck, and remember, you might give us a couple of guidelines to work through, but make sure you don't overpower the player's decision(why I did that had a valid reason(namely because fighting with weapons = deadly! and I prefer my player character's ALIVE!! and HEALTHY!))


Good luck, and I hope I can join.

Sorry I didn’t see that the character lay out had changed
Ambitions- well Kailleth’s only goal is to survive, get rich and to slay in kaines name.
Skill- well I find that differs from one RPG to the next so I can’t say at the moment
Ps Kailleth never wanted revenge it states his goals and outlook of life in the last paragraph of his back round

Looks good! :D

I think I speak for all if I say that its best if the runes AREN'T activate.

I agree with Carathyle about the sword. Also how does your char go from being a noble to a simple mercenary?
This roleplay will not have any important nobles once we get this rolling! But if you get those two things changedyou have a good character.
Say because he killed his own family he is now wanted hiding in the shadows and during the flight he lost his sword? But being a noble might not be the best starting point.


So, Senluthan, before you accept characters, read their background stories thoroughly and also invite players from the pool itself, there are enough there to play

My bad didn't make it specific enough. I will accept all who wants to play, but I might have some things that have to be changed on the character.

Note that your words might confuse people. In this case, it could mean that you'll even decide if our characters walk according to plan.

And i will! who knows if you walk that way and BANG a trap snapped... Nah just kidding the main point in saying all actions is that i dont use a dice to decide wether actions succed or not. But of course you choose what actions you want to do, and with all minor things you can be quite sure that things goes as planned.

I love role play(both RPG's and LARP) and I wouldn't mind having 2 at a time.


You are more than welcome. I would love to have some one if things get tight. And also some ideas how i do as a mod. ^^ Should i add your character in here or you want to that yourself?
I thought that i would go through the CC and ask if they want to play, to add the remaining players.

Well not sure i understand your point about combat Carathyle. If that is minded on me as mod or the experience the different Char have before hand?

It was aimed toward you as well as toward the character. The character has its own personality and approach to... things. One character attacks head on, while another character likes to stay behind and defend. You can have all sort of characters, from berserking maniaks to cowardly female warriors(not Ariël). Every character has its own personality and YOU as MODERATOR should respect that.

I will do that indeed... at least try my best to figure out the fighting style, but I can't do that on other basis as the fighting posts (well a bit in the character description and background).

Thank you for the invitation to join your group, Senluthan.

• Name: Talahisior Seth'ranis.
• Sex: Male.
• Age: Around 250.
• Height: 6 foot 5 inches.
• Weight: 12 ½ stone.
• Appearance: Slender and toned, Talahisior appears ghostly to those who have the bad fortune of seeing him. His skin has a pale, ashen hue to it, as does his hair, which falls from a topknot. His eyes bear down on those who meet his gaze with the brassy hatred of a devotee of the Bloody Handed god. His face is cruel and disdainful; on either cheek he wears a diagonal ritual scar. He wears clothing of muted shadowy tones, preferring to wear the darkness and bloodstains of his many victims to over embellished armour. He moves with swift precision and a measure of caution, seeing himself as much a tool for murder as the two swords that hang from his belt.

• Character Class: Khainite.
• Character Statistics: WS5, S3, T3, D4, I3.
• Starting Equipment: Short Sword x 2, Light Armour, Throwing Dagger
• Starting Skills: Ambidexterity

• Character Background: There are none who live who know of Talahisior's true origins. There are those who have come to know him, for good or ill, and they shall all tell you of his skill with the sword, and the relish with which he harvests souls for Khaine.

He prefers to keep a distance, watching silently, coldly calculating the measure of those he walks amongst. Not residing in any one place, it is said Talahisior is a survivor of the schism between the Temple of Khaine, and "The True Believers" which resulted in bloody riots in Har Ganeth. He spends his days wandering, worshipping the Lord of Murder in the only manner he sees fit; in battle, wanton acts of violence, and the slaying of those worthy few that would make good offerings.

He spends any spare time he has meditating or practicing his sword skills. Knowing well the danger of his alignment, he keeps his business his own. He has been known to offer his skills in training a select few the art of the sword, and is suspected as well of teaching a few trusted acolytes the ways of his "spiritual path".

(vignette from an appearance by Talahisior in one of my stories)
Corvenhirlan heaved open the oak doors and ran into the darkened hallway with a shout. Spinning his glaive in front of him as his eyes adjusted to the soft glow of the witchlights in the dark interior, he skidded to a halt seeing Yvoris near the window, an unknown druchii nearby.

‘Step away from her.’ He growled, lowering the hooked tip of his weapon to point at the stranger. He took two steps forwards, adding ‘Now.’

Talahisior examined the retainer and backed away, displaying his hands palms open, to the guard. ‘Now let’s not be hasty.’

Corvenhirlan grunted and lunged at the white haired stranger, jabbing his glaive at the druchii’s throat. As fast as a striking serpent, Talahisior unsheathed his swords and parried the blow with his left blade, spinning around and reposting with an overhead cut with his right, aimed at the guard’s neck.

The retainer twisted on his left foot, the sword glancing off his shoulder and down his chest plate as his glaive crashed loudly against the black granite floor. The swordsman pressed his advantage slicing at the guard with both swords, each blade singing as it spun through the air. Corvenhirlan stepped back with each strike, barely able to parry each blow with the steel haft of his halberd. With a snarl he ducked a swipe aimed at his head and spun his glaive in a wide circle, intent on knocking the stranger from his feet.

Talahisior anticipated the strike and leaped upwards and back, before standing with his right blade pointed at the retainer, his left in a defensive position across his body. Corvenhirlan lifted his glaive, holding it above his head and charged at his opponent, bringing the deadly blade down as the gap diminished. Talahisior lowered his stance, raising his swords above his head in an X shape, catching the blade, sliding back against the polished floor with the momentum of the blow. Corvenhirlan kept up his charge pushing Talahisior against the table at the bottom of the staircase, the statue falling from it and shattering on the floor as the table tipped over.

Finding himself pressed against the banister of the stairway, Talahisior narrowed his brass eyes and pushed with all his might forcing the glaive away. Corvenhirlan rocked backwards a little from the shove, but had a better balance, and brought his weapon up for another blow. At these close quarters, Talahisior had a minor advantage, needing less room to manoeuvre his blades for an effective strike. He pulled back his right sword and feinted at Corvenhirlan’s throat. As the guard angrily shoved against the weapon with the shaft of his glaive, Talahisior stabbed with his left blade at the gap between Corvenhirlan’s plate armour beneath his right arm. The guard saw the blow a moment too late to respond swiftly and the sword bit into his flesh by an inch, the rings in his chainmail shirt beneath his armour popping under his arm as the blade burst through them.

Roaring in surprise, the retainer swung around, sweeping the glaive in a deadly arc at Talahisior’s head. The druchii rolled out of the way with barely a moment to spare, and the sharp blade of the deadly weapon hissed past him smashing through four carved banister rails, shattering the stone noisily.

Corvenhirlan pulled the weapon free and brought it down at his opponent, the swordsman rolling forwards and striking up with both blades aiming to bring them together with a scissoring motion around the retainer’s neck. The guard angled his halberd downwards, the tip of the weapon aimed at Talahisior’s chest in an attempt to split him open. The halberd met with the crossed swords and the two struggled against each other, neither able to break the locked weapons, nor wanting to. The first to pull back would be sure to suffer a lethal blow. The two opponents stared fiercely at each other waiting for the other to weaken.

• Character Ambitions: He desires to slay, to see blood run for his Lord. A deeply spiritual druchii, his ambition is to worship through killing, perhaps even seeing the True Faith overthrow the political puppets of the Temple. Wishes to advance in Ambidexterity, Two Weapon Fighting, and Frenzy.

Name: Ariël(she forgot her last name)
Sex: Female
Age: 45
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 80lbs
Appearance: With long black hair, blood red eyes with the pupils of a predator, pale skin like many Druchii, a Khaitan covering her slender body, Black light armour, witch-crafted shield with unknown runes on the steel rims, a witch-crafted sword with unknown runes on its blade, a bottle filled with a scarlet liquid attached to her belt.
Class: Warrior
Character Statistics: WS6 S4 T2 D3 I3
Starting Equipment: light Armour(EP 2), Steel Bender(EP 2), Grim Sever(EP 3), a bottle of blood, given to her by her adoption mother.
Steel Bender; Steel shield with yet to be explained runes
Grim Sever; a black-steeled longsword with yet to explain enchantment runes(minor power), given to her by her mother for her 20th birthday. During practise she'll leave in sheathed, only taking it out in real combat as it whistles when touched by blood.
Light Armour; No helmet, Breastplate, the rest is covered by the Khaitan, Gloves and a gauntlet on her right arm(arm with which she uses Grim Sever), and greaves for minimal hindrance.

Background:
Being born into this world unwanted, her parents, both from Har Ganeth, discarded her to the streets as a little baby. Getting picked up by a Death Hag from the tower, she was taken in as a daughter to the Hag, who raised her in the same style as the executioners and Witch Elves. From the age of 18, while learning all the trademarks of the executioners, the witch elves and the sorceresses, she also learned about the combat style of the guards defending the mighty city. A lesser Druchii would easily get manipulated into adjusting to one combat style and one form of fighting, yet she trained in all forms. Being extremely fond of a sword and a shield, she managed to train in that as well, aside from all the magic training of the sorceresses, the dual wielded training from the Witch elves, and the Draich Training from the Executioners. Accepted as a daughter of Khaine, none of these thought it to be extremely strange to have a female Druchii being taught in the skills of the Execution, nor was it strange that the Witch Elf Hags and the sorceresses all wanted to have her as an apprentice.

Accepted in the Khainite group she was indeed, yet she wasn't a devote to Khaine at all. Her faith did lie with the blood-handed-one, yet she didn't express this with sacrifices and such. Often during the annual Death Night, she remained in her chambers, sitting in the window opening and looking down at the streets as the witches roamed over them in search of blood and sacrifices like every other night. Often enough she laughed when one of the witches dragged a volunteer toward the Cauldron, and was drained of his life essence. Drinking a cup of wine during most nights that she enjoyed on her chambers gazing the stars and looked at the sacrifices, she drank a cup of blood during the Death Night before going over to the wine. The blood reminded herself of the suffering she went through and she turned it to a habit, just like the bath of the Death Hags in the Cauldron for refreshed youth. It was often the cup of blood that refreshed her energy until the next, as the cup itself had the same engravings as the Cauldron. The view over the city was impressive, and as soon as night fell, it was absolutely beautiful to sit in a safe shell of brick and iron gazing at the stars that the Gods had created for them.

During a night on her 35th birthday, she gazed like every other day toward the stars. The Death Hags had a fight once more on whom was first to bathe in the Cauldron. The Death Night wasn't just a celebration to Khaine, it was also a celebration of her birthday to her. All the sacrifices that were made were part of her gifts. Knowing full well that this was none sense, she relaxed herself with the cup of blood, freshly poured from the sacrifices. Har Ganeth, you just got to love all the death. was her main thought about the city while she sniffed the fleshly poured wine through her nostrils. Her preference when to the Brittonian wines, yet the Emperial wines were good as well. Dwarven beer was one of the few things that many elves hated, yet she was quite fond of the bitterness of the liquor. The High Elf wines were rare across Naggaroth, and she didn't know how it tasted. However, knowing the Druchii wines taste good to her, she figured that since its wine it couldn't be that bad.

Her 45th birthday wasn't as special either, yet Khaine did tend to become cruel from time to time. One of the many nobles of the city, one using the last name Maveric, forced his way into her room, against the death hags advise. Seeïng the young elf sitting on the window's edge, her hair moved by the winds, sipping the blood and enjoying the Death Night for the 39th time, the nobleman grinned.

"What is a cute young girl doing in a place like this? Looking for some company?" the noblemen grinned.

The words attracted the attention of Athriël indeed, yet not in a good sense of the word. She turned her head toward the noble and her feature turned dark almost immediately. She stood up from the window into the room and placed the goblet of blood on the edge. Instructing the noblemen to leave with a gesture, she showed him that she wasn't happy with his arrival in her room uninvited. The nobleman appeared to be ignorant and stubborn, proceeding toward the young warrior. As he talked sweet words toward her, and approached her. She slowly reached for the sword in standing against the table, giving the nobleman time to turn around and leave of own free will. The noble proceeded, giving her no choice but to grab the sword. Once the sheath was in her hand, the noble lunged forward at her, trying to grasp the young slender body of Athriël. However, she quickly side stepped, drew the sword in a spin and placed its blade against the throat of the noblemen.

"You shall leave this temple, or you'll be the next sacrifice to Khaine and my first one as well." She said in an angry tone.

The noble turned around toward the door and left the room for the rest of his life. She returned to the goblet of blood, sipping the life essence from its golden metal. I should have killed him, he would make due for another two glasses. .

Character Ambitions: She wishes to get tougher, stronger and faster. Aiming for the skills Acrobatics and Freerunning.

Can I just ask about posting actions? Do we post in response to the mod playing the NPCs and give a response along the lines of "[name] lunges at [NPC1] aiming for his stomach." Then await your reply to each move... Or do you want us to be more direct with NPCs and fighting, as in "[name] decapitates [NPC1] with a backhanded sweep of his draich." ?

Then await your reply to each move... Or do you want us to be more direct with NPCs and fighting, as in "[name] decapitates [NPC1] with a backhanded sweep of his draich." ?


For these questions, please look at the modposts of other groups. I'll give a short example below.

Talahisior ran toward Ariël, who stood ready against the wall with her hands cupped. The speed Talahisior had was unbelievable, and the Khainite soon was at Ariël and jumped into the cupped hands. Ariël raised her hands the moment she felt the foot, and threw Talahisior up and over the wall. The guards on the wall were surprised to say the least, as the Khainite set her feet on the floor. She quickly grasped the two short swords and ran toward the two archer guards on the wall. She was fast, and the archer threw away their bow and drew their swords. However, Talahisior was fast, cutting one of the ropes that held the gate up.

The two archers ran at her, swords raised high and unfortunately it proved to have no use. The Khainite was fast, dodging and blocking the swords and making her way to the other rope. Cutting it, the gate fell down, giving the rest the chance of getting in.


This would be the best option for a modpost. For our own actions, we use a Summary of our intended actions.

we do that in the following for the mod:

Ariël:
Assist Talahisior in exchange for entrance. She'll boost her up and onto the wall.

Talahisior:
Accept the deal with Ariël and get on the wall. On the wall, she'll engage the archers and open the gate for Ariël and other comrades.

I see, thank you. So in this system the mods directly manipulate our characters as an author to move the story along, based on their abilities and "personalities". Interesting. I look forward to seeing this in action.

Post by Spectre »

hey guys here is my character
must say i would very much love to join

• Name: Nardiz Taxokoar
• Sex: Male
• Age: 120
• Height: 1m 95cm
• Weight: 95kg
• Appearance:
Short black/brown hair, do to having spend a lot of time outside patrolling and standing guard he is less pale that the ‘normal’ druchii. He spends a lot of his spare time practicing and therefore he is more muscular that the ‘normal’ druchii. His armour is made up of a steel chest plate polished so it shines and a red tunic and he is wearing leather sandals with iron rivets to secure his foothold (also they do make some nice marks when used for stamping on an opponent). He is carrying a think oval shield, with a centre grip covered by a metal boss, and a short double edged sword, designed for stabbing (but can make some pretty cuts).

• Character Class: Warrior
• Character Statistics: WS: 4, S: 4, T: 3, D: 3, I: 4
• Starting Equipment: Short Sword, Shortbow, 1 clip of 20, Medium Armour, Shield
• Starting Skills:

• Character Background:
Nardiz’s father was a sergeant in the army. He had command over 50 men. Nardiz spent much of his childhood playing around the fields and forests around his home. His mother often told Nardiz stories about his father, when he was off on a raid or a campaign. When Nardiz’s father then was on leave he would train Nardiz in the way of the sword and shield, when training they didn’t speak much, and a wrong moves from Nardiz’s side would be quickly retaliated by a strike from his fathers sword.

When Nardiz was about 13 his father dies in an ambush by the asur, never before have Nardiz hated anybody with the fury he now welcomes. His mother, destroyed by sorrow abandoned him. For all Nardiz knows she might have committed suicide. Not knowing what to do Nardiz heads off to Naggaroth where he found an army camped outside the walls. Nardiz starts following the army, learning the trade of war from the very best. Every time the army commits to battle Nardiz finds a nearby hill of sorts and he spends his time observing the movement and tactics of the army. In Nardiz’s spare time he practiced in the way of the sword and shield side by side with the recruits who seem to have accepted the presents of this boy.

Nardiz was slowly and steadily integrated into the army, at first he had to bring water to the men when in combat, latter he got a crossbow and was placed into a unit of crossbowmen. Nardiz hated this, he had of cause seen how affective a volley of blot could be, but in his mind all archers was cowards. He craved to be moved over to the front line where he felt he belonged. After having ‘accidently’ shot a recruit, he was transferred to the front line in a hope that he would be killed. But he only grew stronger there and before long he was among the better half of the army when using a sword and shield. Nardiz spent the next 50 years as a foot soldier before the command realized his potential after that he was promoted to sergeant and over the next 25 years the number of men in his unit steadily raised along with the difficulty of his missions and tasks. Nardiz’s ambition at the time was to get command of an army and then lead it in on a campaign to break the neck of the damn asur once and for all.

At the age of 93 Nardiz had command over 50 men. He had just gotten a new superior, an arrogant basted fresh out of officer school, who could not tell a coldone from his ass. And well of course he had gone drunk of his new found power. And the first thing the bafoon (which was what the new commander got called behind his back) does is to order Nardiz and his unit of on a recon mission to locate a shadow warrior camp 50 miles east with no backup. No matter how much Nardiz argued against it saying that his men would be cut to pieces by a bunch of shadow warriors, the bafoon didn’t move a inch, and had Nardiz spoken another word he would have been executed for treason. Infuriated by his orders he led his unit east. After about 45 miles Nardiz’s unit was walking thru a clearing in a dense forest, Nardiz was on edge because they could fall upon the shadow warrior camp any minute. Before he knew what was happening the front and back 3 ranks died do to arrows and a group of 30-50 shadow warriors were charging the unit Shields up! Draw swords! Stand together! Steady men! Ready! Nardiz cried as the assailants closed the gap between them and his men, just before the gap was closed another volley of arrows hit his men creating holds the shadow warriors used to destroy Nardiz’s unit in seconds damn the bafoon to Ulthuan! This is all his fault Nardiz thought as he raised his shield to block a blow aimed to decapitate him and stabbing under it at the crotch of his opponent, his father’s training kicked in throat and crotch Nardiz is the fastest way to kill a man hit him anywhere else and he will have strength to take u with him to death his father used to say. He looked over his shield and saw his men being cut too pieces and cried out sorrow the only way to survive is to run he thought and looked for a way out of the fight. He found it as Nardiz started running he slung his shield over his back to make save him from arrows and blows. He swung he sword wildly to carve a way out of the battle. As Nardiz reach the safety of the forest he looked over his shoulder seeing the last of his men getting cut down like wheat for the scythe. He swore to himself that he would slay the bafoon as revenge for this defeat. Nardiz made it back to Naggaroth in one piece and the first thing he did was to walk up to the bafoon and slice his throat and run into the wild. The guards around the commander were so stunned that they just watched Nardiz run away. Nardiz spend the next 7 years as a sellsword before he found a guard job at a rich noble and stayed there 18 years, before he went back on the road selling his sword and shield to any having enough money.

• Character Ambitions: Nardiz’s goal right now is to break the neck of the asur and add Ulthuan to the realm of druchii, he needs money and men to do this. Nardiz is aiming to increase WS and T. He is trying to achieve the following skills: Awareness, Defensive Fighting, Masterful Endurance and Anarin Sarath (3). Nardiz covets to get: Bastard Sword, Repeater Crossbow, Sea Dragon Cloak, Heavy Armour and a Pavise.
