OOC: I'd say Sligs are more closer to Yellow than Green. But oh well.
IC: "Well, that should make learning easier. If you don't know traps already...", Athena looked around. "Anything can become a trap. A chunk of metal can make a sleg-trap, a sharpened branch can make for a concealed spear..." Athena felt a strange popping sensation as she was whisked away to somewhere new. She looked around and noticed they were at least a few hundred yards away from town... "How did you do that?!", she asked. As Athena walked along, her foot collided with something large and fairly soft. "Oh, what's this?", she said. Holding up a sack of meat which was lying on the floor. |
OOC:
Wow, so many mistakes *edits over half his posts* I can't believe I've been calling her Aqua since my first IC post. Where has my brain been? IC: Koimo listened to Athena carefully "anything can be a trap, got it." he thought to himself looking to the ground. When he looked up again Athena vanished in purple smoke. Koimo heard Hydra yell "Now it's our turn new dude!" and smoke surrounded them. The smoke cleared and they where standing some distance from town. "wow, that was amazing" Koimo said trying not to be too loud, Outlaws could be anywhere. He glanced around him and saw Athena holding a sack of meat. "what's that doing out here?" and then an Idea came to Koimo "I can put some of that meat in my basket" he said and approached Athena "we might be able to set up some traps faster that way" |
OOC: Hate for an occ only post, but i'm waiting on Chronicler.
|
OOC: As Mafisto or Hoss? Anyhow, I think it's best if we start the mining already.
IC: Hoss didn't like the looks of that big fem slig. As a general rule, people he started rough with who were bigger than him, tend to want him dead. So, the Wolvark trampled on back to his home, which was also one of his workplaces. He looked around the living room and then out the window to see if anyone noticed. When things looked safe, Hoss opened up a secret compartment on the underside of his tv remote control. With the press of the red button, a siren went off outside. A loud annoying one that would go on for a minute, warning the miners and other helpers that it was time to WORK! Hoss admired the familiar, buzzing sound as it screeched into his ears, then he walked out the door to take a look outside .... ---------------------------------------- Hydra looked around thoughtfully as the sparkling smoke cleared from around her, revealing a remotely forested area not too far from town. "This is all just me being sneaky. Nothng special that I'd want ya'll to learn. ;)" She offered as a reply to her comrades' bewilderment. She looked at the meat Koimo was taking from Athena's brutish hands. "Hmm .... Outlaws, atleast the normal ones, tend to be carnivores. Perhaps if we could set up our trap of our own, with the meat as bait!" Hydra mentioned confidently. It irked her that the sirens were going off in the distance, but they weren't annoyingly loud at the distance they were from town. ----------------------------------------- Mafisto stomped loudly up to Bruce. His huge claws grabbed at the smaller outlaw's shoulder to turn him around. The giant outlaw not only point out to Bruce that someone in the town had been watching, but, as was obvious, the sirens were going off. "Grrrrrr ...." |
OOC: Both. Hoss needed to give some orders to Larz and Carl and Bruce was waiting for Mafisto.
IC: Bruce thought Mafisto was still mad about that shot, he flinched when Mafisto grabbed him. But when he opened his eyes, he could see a Slig(Garit) running away. ‘He must have set off the sirens’ Bruce thought. He then let out a growl himself and began running towards this little spy, then taking a dive for the creature . When he tackled him, Bruce grabbed his knife and held it to the Slig’s neck. “Alright buddy, it’s time for you to start talking.” Bruce slowly dragged him back up into the trees, keeping his knife close to his neck. “Who sent you? Was is it that Hoss? Why are you sneaking around spying on us? OOC: If you have a problem with what happened Oddey, just let me know and I’ll change it. ======================================= Carl sat down on a rock at the mining site. Hoss wasn’t here yet, so which meant Carl could still have a little bit of peace for Hoss starts barking out orders. ============================================== Larz punched in at the time clock. He then pulled out a map of the mining site and placed it on Hoss’s desk, marking out some of the blast zones. He needed to wait for Hoss to make sure everything sat right with him, or else he would be getting an ear full of complaining. |
IC: Being tackled, was in itself a shock. Then having knives held under your neck, and being pinned against tress, was just as dewildering. Garit, wasn't really prepared for any one of these eventualities, but he would have to think of something. Try desperately to come up with something as he was pinned against a tree, he decided maybe it'd be easiest to just tell the truth... Or at least, sort of the truth. All the same though, he slowly let his arm careen it's way to his pistol. "Alright, I'm here on my own, no orders from anyone, and I'm not spying on you, to be perfectly honest. I was spying on someone I thought worked for Hoss. I've got business with him... The violent kind." As he finished, he knew that he only needed to move his hand a few more inches. Unfortunatly, moving any more would definately give his plan away. But before blowing this guy's brains out, he'd wait for his reply. Maybe he could get out of this without having to spill blood, both his own, and other's.
|
IC: Bruce loosened his grip on the Slig. Maybe this Slig could be useful thought Bruce, or maybe even join their side. “Got a name runt?” (pause for reply) “Hmm, maybe we could use a guy like you. If you really don’t like this Hoss fella, then maybe we might be willing to let you into the gang.” Bruce finally let go of the Slig.
|
OOC: I love this roleplay so far. Well done everyone!
IC: Athena smiled, "Hey Koimo, you sure are a fast learner" She briefly touches his shoulder. 'Ugh', Athena thought to herself. 'Don't do that, he's a grubb for heck's sake'. Athena didn't like this time of the month. Athena removed her hand but smiled regardless. "Hmmm, using the meat as bait. That could work" Athena grabs a bit of the meat for herself and puts it into a smaller bag. Athena smiled at Hydra, "Oh, alright then" As Hydra came up with another trap idea, Athena winked at her. "Great minds think alike, eh hon?" Finally, a nice girly friend to chat to. Athena had been so lonely. Athena gently rubbed Hydra's shoulder. She noticed Hydra flinch. "Something wrong?" |
IC: Garit pondered if it was worth using a false name, but decided against it. He'd never want to see this guy again. "Garit" He said, and listened to the proposition he was offered. As much as the idea appealed to him in one way, it had equal pros and cons. Sturggling to think of something to say, he bit his lip, which this outlaw fortunately couldn't see. "I'll keep that in mind. Can I go now?" He said just as he noticed that the sirens were going off again. By now, he knew what they meant, and maybe today, he'd be able to follow one of Hoss's employees to work. Today might just be his lucky day.
|
IC:
Koimo breifly froze as the big sis' huge hand went onto his shoulder and was quickly removed. The big sis was much gentler then Koimo could imagine somone of such a size could be. Upon hearing the word "bait" the concept of what they were doing finally rushed into Koimo's head "Oh, I've finally got it now, we lure them with this meat into something, like little fish." he said, realising that if he related something to fishing it made much more sense to him "but into what?" he stood and pondered for a little while. |
OOC: With the current number of miners, it's probably a good idea if we acknowledge NPCs, but just leave them nameless and unimportant.
Hoss, after traversing through a walk down the forest and a climb up a short cliff, reached the mining site. And just as he stepped in, he no longer heard the incesant screech of the sirens. He took in a deep breath of water in the air. Aaaaah, hydraulics. "Now where'd that ding-dang girl run off ta?" The wolvark muttered to himself. She'd do a good job keeping track of who was and who wasn't working .... Boss Hoss saw another miner sitting around (Carl). "Hey you! This ain't no time ta be a-sittin 'round like some lazy jackass! Man one of dem hoses!!" Stupid fools too scared to work. Hoss walked by a group of Clakkerz, who were scared off back to the wooden sluices below the blast zones. Hoss walked into his small, wooden office and noticed that wolvark, Larz, sitting at his desk. "Whad'ja want?" ------------------------------------------- Hydra felt a huge hand on her small shoulder, she looked up to see Athena. "Aaw. Nothing's wrong. Just those sirens that stopped just now .... Nothing to worry 'bout ...." The grubb knew she was skipping out on helping Boss Hoss, but he didn't need her 24/7 or anything .... She listened to Koimo's piece of idea and automatically snapped her fingers. "Yer a grubb! Yer a fisher .... right? Right? Cuz that's what most grubbs do! Fish! Right? Maybe we could use some type of fish net or cloth ..... maybe a traphole? I dunno." she scratched her green head. ------------------------------------------- Mafisto didn't like this idea of some stranger slug bug man joining the gang. He knocked Bruce aside and picked up the slig by his tentacles. Brining up to his face, the large monster growled. "Prove yerself boy! GRAAAAAARGGGH!" He didn't care that the slig wanted to go, MAfisto wanted to do some good ol' wrasslin. |
IC: When a huge green outlaw bellows into your face, you freeze instinctively. Just like what Garit was doing. Standing completely still in fear or shock. Eventually being knocked out of his daze, Garit took a moment to wonder what exactly he could do to "Prove himself". Wondering if shooting both outlaws in the feet or something would help, he considered the idea of actually wrestling with this fellow. No matter how many ways he could tip the odds, Mafisto would be impossible for a slig like Garit to even knock to his knees. Muttering a quick "Sorry" he whipper out his gun, shot at both outlaws, aiming for non-lethal parts, and ran as fast as possible in the other direction.
OOC: I can always change the way things have happened if this isn't to Chronicler and Mr. Odd's liking. |
Sorry to interrupt, I was wondering if it wasn't to late to join in with this RPG? I am amazed I haven't one so yet.
|
IC: Athena smiled. She liked it when people used examples to describe things. "That is correct. We will use the meat as the center of the trap" She listened to Koimo before responding, "Well that is where the trap comes in. We shall be using either spikes, clubs or even a bit of water" Athena giggled slightly, putting her hand in front of her snout. She liked the idea of someone getting wet.
Athena turned to Hydra. "Alright. I'll go and buy some netting and some hooks from the store. Don't teleport me, I'll stretch my... ahem, legs" She smiled to Hydra and winked at Koimo before walking off. "See you later!", she called back... raising a hand in the air as a means of goodbye. OOC: I think you can theoretically join an RPG at any time. Ask the RPG maker for proper clarification. |
Chronicler?
|
OOC: Aye, Chronicler (I hope you where asking if he is the maker or this will look stupid :p)
IC: "Yeah, I'm a fisherman." Koimo said "A nice sturdy fishing net might slow down an Outlaw for a little while" He waved as the Slig left to fetch some equipment and looked at Hydra. "I suppose now would be a good time to find some good places for those traps?" Koimo asked and looked up at the trees "I wonder if these trees could hold the weight of an Outlaw" he said and realised that two Grubbs in the middle of a possibly Outlaw infested Forest wasn't exactly safe "Or we could just hide until Athena comes back?" |
OOC: Perhaps we should also have a few NPCs for the Outlaws as well. It least 2 or 3.
IC: Larz noticed Hoss approaching the desk, which made Larz jump out from the chair. "Hey boss." he said with firm voice. "I was just going over the plans.” Larz turned toward the desk and began pointing to the locations he had marked. “Now there is a big patch of rock to tough for the hoses, so were gonna blow it to bits. There might be huge deposit underneath, so I need you to get those Clakkerz digging some holes so I can place the dynamite.” Larz rolled up the map and a small grin appeared on his face. “I have a good feeling about this spot and if I’m right, the money train might be rolling a little early this week. ============================ Carl was in a bad mood after being barked at by Hoss. He grumbled as he sprayed the mountain side with the high powered hose, breaking free the sparkling rocks. While he sprayed the mountain side, the Clakkerz began harvesting the minerals. ============================== Bruce’s arm was hit by one of the Slig’s bullets. He bellowed in pain and blood was pouring out from the wound. Bruce aimed his rifle at the running slig and fired several shots, which all missed due too his hurt arm. Bruce sat the rifle down and pulled out a first aid kit. The wound wasn’t that bad, once he gets it patched up, his arm should be fine enough to shoot with. He groaned as he pulled the bullet out from his flesh. Bruce then tied a bandage around it and stood up to see if the Slig was still running. “YOU HAVEN’T SEEN THE LAST OF US YOU LITTLE WORM!” Roared Bruce. He then looked toward Mafisto. “I say we head back to the hideout and get the boys. Maybe it’s time we pay a little visit to this town and show-em who runs things around here.” OCC: I know the healing was a little unreal, but i did not want to spend two posts patching Bruce's arm. |
OOC: For the NPCs, we can't have too many of them at once if you're suggesting an Outlaw invasion. The most I'd allow for something like that (unless someone can persuade me otherwise) is 3 other NPC Outlaws at a time. I already positively pmd scrabtrapman, so no further comment on that.
IC: Hoss took slow steps into the office. He scratched his chin listening to Larz's idea. Normally, Hoss is quite stubborn and unwilling to listen to others' ideas on how to run such an operation .... but the word "money train" was enough for Boss Hoss to hastily squish his fat ass right onto his own, red seat. He snatched at the map with his green sausage fingers and scanned through it with overreaction. He looked up at Larz and a small smile of sharp teeth grew on the wolvark's face .... "Lawz ... er .... LARZ .... You could make a wolvark like me proud." Hoss then ran out the wooden office. He spied out the group of clakkerz he barked at earlier. "Hey birdbrains! C'mere! The chattering yolkels waddled on over. "Now then! Ya'll listen up ta what that thar wolvark Larz has got ta say!" "Awright Larz, you git these clakkerz ta do this dynamitin'. I'LL be looking around the rest of the site. NOW MOVE IT!" -------------------------------------- Hooks, nets, even SPIKES? This sounds like a fun trap! Hydra was ready to charge herself over to the minetown, but she stopped herself upon hearing Athena volunteering it. She also mentioned not to teleport her .... Hydra hadn't thought of that earlier .... this made her wanna joke around with the big sis slig for a moment. The grubb fiendishly smiled as she wrapped one arm around Koimo. "Hang on, I'll be back. Hold that thought!" In a blink of an eye, Hydra vanished in a swirling puff of blue smoke. Before Athena could even get a few yards away, Hydra's trick played out again. Wisps of light purple smoked swirled up and around the fem slig. Her energy levels would momentarily grow higher for this trick. Athena was forced to flinch and recoil as her entire being violently exploded, leaving behind blowing purple smoke but no Athena. She would wind up not too farther in the forest, still on the pathway towards the minetown like she wanted. Helping the slig out a little Hydra then came back to Koimo, jumping down from out of nowhere. "Hiding? That's for scared grubby tadpoles! Naw, we need a TRAP! .... well a plan atleast .... What were ya sayin' about these trees?" ---------------------------------------- MAfisto stomped and crashed his way through the bushes to completley avoid the gunshots. It was a close one, an Outlaw of his large size not getting hit .... MAfisto angrily growled as that slig ran off scared. He proved himself as a tricky slug, but still p issed off the large monster outlaw. He grunted and motioned Bruce with his large claws to leave without him. MAfisto needs something to wrassle and eat .... in that town .... |
IC: Garit was still running as fast as possible, even after putting sizeble distance between himself and the outlaws. That big one was not one he's ever want to meet again, or the other one for that matter. Once he was sure that nothing was behind him, he stopped and looked around him. Too late, he realised he had been running into the forest, rather than out of it. Now faced with another serious problem of being lost, he sat down both in despair, and in exhaustion. Leaning back against a tree, he heard something. It sounded a bit like... Water. Noticing how thirsty he actually was, he headed towards the source, but not before reloading his gun.
Coming closer to the sound he realized he had found a river. Not just any river in fact, but the one that the water being sprayed against the cliff went into. Peering around for anybody at all, he could see only a few manning hoses. He crept out of the forest, and neared the water. |
Ok, I'm joining:
Character One Name: Carbide Species: Slig Gender: Male Age: 30 (Earth years) Position: Freelance rogue trader, first generation Personality: Calm yet dark, Carbide rarely smiles but still enjoys freedom. Appearance: Green/Grey skin, different tone to a usual slig, the mask is old yet effective, a version one mask with a similar long visor across and some gas filters around back, Carbide's pants are the usual updated version but he has altered them with steam punk leg holders allowing for jumps. Equipment: Merchant locker, small cart and scrab hide tent (living quarters,) the slig has no armour but does have a small one handed snuzi stolen from an intern as a trophy. History: Carbide enjoys living as a freelancer merchant with a dark past, he was once a high ranking slig in the slig barracks and was transported to rupture farms where he made allegiances with some mudokons, he staged beatings and other problems to make him appear tough but was secretly kinder than most, this was due to a problem TV circuit when still a young slig in his living cell. Rather than showing corporate propaganda, the circuit showed old recycled TV shows about the wilds of Paramonia. He escaped after a lawsuit was filed that he had nurtured mudokons but with little idea of where to travel and how to get to Paramonia, he set up a travelling firm around the area of the mines. Character Two Name: TechyTeefJaw "Jawz" Species: Outlaw Gender: Male Age: 29 (human years) Position: High outlaw, member of outlaws Personality: Crazy and unpredictable Appearance: Squat yet muscular, seen regularly with a typical outlaw hat and a huge steel cigar, he was burnt in a house fire as a young outlaw and had a metal jaw implanted with the crushing force of a Sea Rex. Equipment: Large automatic machine gun and brass knuckles History: Born and raised as an outlaw, inherited the small clan of five plus himself and now wants to see an end to Hoss and his mining company and restore the lands back to their owners, the OUTLAWS! |
IC:
Carbide looked out from the forest armed with his snuzi currently holstered and a small custom fitted shawl draped over his shoulder, inside the many pockets where trinkets, packs of ammo and some gems stolen from the off cuts of the mines, there where an abundance of dumb wolvarks and a few mudokons to sell the worthless stuff too, and when he sold out he could just find more and scavenge the rest, apparently the old bullets where out of make but still used in some mines and meat plants...subsequently he took as much as possibly before leaving. It was going to be a good day for selling, he could feel it, now he just had to find some customers to hook in. ================================================================ Jawz creped up to the bush on his stomach, the dry mud dusted him in a fine layer and he cocked his gun with a cartridge of darts, meanwhile a juvenile sleg was sniffing around a layer of leaves, a trap the outlaw had set an hour before - "C'mon ya dumb animal get in the trap so'z me and the boyz can eat!" Just as the sleg was about to spring the convoluted trap, a bustling in a nearby bush scared the creature and it ran away snorting towards a rippling river nearby, Jawz jumped up swearing and he threw his gun on the floor, "Who dat in the bushes?" He could just make out an odd beast with metal legs and a visor |
OOC: Scrabtrapman, the Outlaws here don't really have a leader. It's basicly a leaderless gang.
|
IC:
when Hydra returned Koimo began to explain his trap idea: "Well, Athena is going to get some nets and hooks." He walked up to a large nearby tree "we could set up a net under a large tree such as this and a rope to go over one of the large branches." Koimo began to immitate an Outlaw, a silly angry face and all, "The Outlaw walks on the net, starts the trap and WHOOSH the Outlaw's hanging in the air!" Koimo began to stand normally again "it probably wouldn't hold one for long though, Outlaws look pretty heavy." |
IC: Larz began prepping the explosives while the Clakkerz dug the holes. After all the holes had been dug, he ordered the Clakkerz to place the bombs. All the bombs were wired to a detonation box(I think that’s what they call it ) which he carried the entire time while the Clakkerz worked. When they were finished, he yelled “Everybody clear out and hit the dirt!” which startled Carl, who abandon the hose and hid behind a large rock. Larz then pressed down on the switch and BOOM! Large rock chucks were blown out of the mountain side. Carl peered over the rock and could see large chunks of crystals sticking out of the chunks. Carl grabbed a pick and began to break down the boulders to free the minerals.
Meanwhile, Larz walked over to the huge crater. He sparkling little rocks scattered all over. He picked one up to examine it, brushing the dust and dirt off. To his surprise, it was a diamond. Larz let out a loud “YEE HAW!”, then ran off to show Hoss his discovery. While Carl continued to pick at the huge rocks. Carl then spotted a Slig(Garit) stepping out of the forest. Carl held up his pickaxe and aimed it at the intruder like he was going to throw it. “YOU THERE!” he shouted. “This is a private operation and you don’t look like no miner to me!” Carl already didn’t like him for being a Slig, due to past encounters. ================================ Bruce headed back to the hide and brought back with him three other Outlaws. He heard a huge blast when he got close enough to the town, which meant the miners were already at work. “alright boys, time we make those miners pay their protection fee.” The other laughed and began marching into town towards the mine, while Bruce clung to the trees. He was like a ghost in the trees, but he knew if he moved to much they might see him. So Bruce moved only every once in a while, keeping up with the other Outlaws. OCC: Don't worry. I'm not going to go on some rampage, just a small hold up of the mine. |
OOC: Mr. Odd, you do realise that the mine does not use explosives, but rams the cliff with high powered water?
IC: After reaching the river, Garit realised that he was alone for the time being, which was lucky too. It meant he didn't have to find all kinds of spaces to hide. But all the same, he checked for quick cover. The only cover near the river was the forest. 'If someone does notice me here, maybe they'll just assume I work here...' Garit thought slyly. Lacking a panning tray, he decided he would just grab what he could see. The river was quite literally flowing with bits of rock. Unfortuanatly, what he could see didn't look very valuable. |
IC:
Carbide began to walk towards what appeared to be an explosives operation, there where a couple of clakkerz being bossed around by wolvark, he heard hit the dirt and cowered but the explosion caught him to soon and a ringing pierced his ears, he stumbled forward and saw a wolvark holding an axe high above his head aimed at another slig Carbide hadn't seen before, he signalled to the wolvark but it ignored him so he tried to wander over but the explosion was still messing with his head and he fell in a heap about ten feet away, his gun and inventory spilled out in front, he just had time to collect up his snuzi... ================================================================= Jawz was angry at being ignored, the intruder was now drinking from a river gingerly, the creature had a red visor and green skin ugly! "HEY YOU THAR! YOU JUST SCRAED OFF A MY DINA YOU FREAKY GIT!" Jawz screamed loading his gun and pointing it at the slig |
OOC: I must have missed the last part of your earlier post.
IC: Loosing all sense of logic and planning, Garit snarled in irritance and quite literally sprang up, whipped out his pistol and almost fired, but stopped himself in time, and said quite cooly, "Don't." He took a moment to look at this outlaw. He was small, but he certainly looked more in shape than Garit. Not only that, his mouth looked rather weird. Whatever he had been trying to catch, Garit had probrably saved it from a very powerful pair of jaws. Throughout his expirience with outlaws, he had found that outlaws did not forgive easily. Bracing himself for either another escape or possibly a very viscious fight, he held his gun steady at the outlaw. |
IC: Athena looked around, seemed a little quiet. She shrugged and walked towards the general store. She thought she heard something so she turned around, but she couldn't see anything. Whatever it was just hid a few microseconds before Athena turned. Athena got to the store and bought two Scrab traps (like bear traps), a 5 foot long strip of metal spikes (used by coppers) and a small noisemaker which could record and playback sound.
Athena smiled as the left a shop. "What a beautiful day..." She walked leisurely back to the forest, rubbing her back and chest a little as she did so (slightly itchy). |
OOC: This is a hydraulic mining operation, yes, but it isn't unheard of to blast some rocks from a safe distance from the operation to get what you think might be within, so this is good.
IC: Hoss was busy checking up on the feathered clucks that began shaking at their screens. In the business of mining, therre are always hits and misses. This was a miss. The clakkerz didn't have anything special besides clumps of dirt and feather that fell off from their nervoes selves. Boss Hoss pulled out his own red handkerchief to wipe off his face, mostly out of annoyance more than anything. Suddenly, he heard a relatively noticable *KABOOM* in the distance. The wolvark didn't like the idea of setting of dynamite TOO close to the operation .... but money was the best way to persuade him into doing anything ..... He then saw a familair wolvark Larz running down to him frantically. "Well what the hell're ya goin' crazy 'bout?!" He asked in a growl. ---------------------------------------------------- Hydra listened to Koimo's idea. IT was very simple, but still quite effective. Only one problem however .... "Err, Koimo, I think we may need someone ELSE to be bait as well. I mean, we could wait ALL DAY for a reptile monster man to come out of the bushes to pick up a random scrap of meat .... Like maybe we'll need someone to yell or something to get their attention. Once the Outlaws come near, the distractor could hide away while the Outlaw is caught!" As she was giving out her own plan, she saw Athena from a not too far distance .... "Hey Big Sis! We got a plan!!! Atleast .... planned one out!" Hydra yelled out. The grubb snapped her fingers and Athena flinched and recoiled as she violently exploded in a loud kaboom, leaving behind blowing purple smoke with nothing else in sight. Hydra brought Athena back next to them, but the large slig was curled up inside a large blue egg, next to it being the equipment she bought. "See! We could hide Athena like this in a nest NEXT to the meat! The Outlaws will think it's an animal's nest that they could steal from! When the time comes Athena could pop out and suprise em'! Whaddya think guys?" She asked, leaning her back against the egg. ---------------------------------------------------- Mafisto, not caring about Bruce and the boys' business, made his slow, lumbering self to the Minetown, where dozens of so-called "heroes" would be willing to do some wrassling in order to get some kind of title. That would probably be like some suicidal kamikaze attack for them though. Before the huge behemoth could even SEE the mine town however, he caught sight of another slug-like creature. This one was different from the last one that tried shooting at him not too long ago. This one was a large, hulking female and .... it just disappeared suddenly .... The large Outlaw, having colors that would allow him to blend in with most dark forests, stayed hidden, standing like a tree in the bushes .... watching ... |
OCC: Little tip Scrabtrapman, when you are talking to or confronting a character that is unknown to your own, just put their name next to Slig or Mudokon etc. For example, “Bob saw a Slig(Larry) that he had never seen before.” It helps people know who you are talking about exactly.
IC:Carl suddenly lost interest when the Slig(Garit) left his sight. But now he noticed another Slig(Carbide) walking around, which got on his nerves. Carl hated Sligs, but he really hated it when locals just walk up to the mine like it’s some family theme park. The Slig seemed to be picking up something and Carl thought he was stealing from the mine. “YOU THERE!” he yelled. Carl walked over slowly with his pick axe in hand. “Drop what ever it is your pocketing and keep your hands up high so I can see them!” Demanded Carl. “Now who are you and what are you doing here?” ================ Larz held up the diamond. “I told ya I had a good feeling about that spot.” Larz handed the diamond to Hoss, knowing that he would want see it for himself. “ ================ Bruce kept shifting from tree to tree every so often. Bruce then noticed a huge creature walking into the forest. It was a Big Bro Slig(Athena) by the looks of it, which made Bruce nervous. ‘Why is a Big Bro hanging around here? Maybe Boss Hoss hired some help to guard the mine.’ He thought. Bruce kept hopping from tree to tree again, making sure not to be spotted by this possible new threat. |
OOC: Cheers Mr.Odd
IC: Jawz eyed the slig in careful scrutiny, it appeared calculating and ready to bolt but still aimed it's gun level with his head, Jawz didn't want to risk it, he had forgotten his armour and lowered his automatic a tone, he wasn't in the mood for a full auto fire fight. "What you doing slig? I ain't seen you before!" He said in a grating tone. "Why you in the forest?" =============================================================== Carbide fired a shot in the air in fright, the wolvark(Carl) had an intelligible voice but was displaying a gun in his direction, Carbide was still disorientated from the explosion and played the wolvark carefully, "Mine!" He said lowering the gun, "I'm Carbide, sales slig, do you want some - ammo for that? Or perhaps - some gems." Carbide spoke, spilling the contents of his bag on the floor by accident, he regained his footing and then clicked his snuzi loading a wolvark?" |
OCC: I think you have Carl and Larz mixed up. Carl is a Mudokon and Larz is my Wovlark character. Also, sorry if i seem to be criticizing you a lot. Just trying help you out. You're doing great so far.
IC: When the Slig mentioned gems, it made Carl even more suspicious of the Slig. "Gems aye? I don't suppose you got them from this mine by any chance?" Carl replied with a hint of sarcasm in his voice. "Look buddy, you can see if boss Hoss is interested in your wares but if i find out you're stealing our gems, I'll gut ya like a fish." He said shifting the pick axe in his direction. "Oh, i almost forgot. What's your name?" |
OOC: Soz yeh I did, thx for the help
IC: "My names Carbide, escapist from Rupturefarms, weapons extraordinary and high ranking general excommunicated. These gems are mine, I don't even think there real, not from the mines here, although I here that these areas are outlaw owned and you lot stole them, and put your gun down kiddo, you see this, snuzi, stolen from an intern, packed with addictive fluids and explosive cocktails, say you need help with body guarding, like a side job for me." Carbide lowered his gun and threw the bag of gems at Carl for him to check. |
IC: Still not trusting this outlaw, but not really wanting to push him into violence, Garit merely replied "Looking for something." Hoping that this was an adequate answer, he noticed out of the corner of his eye, that a mudokon with a pickaxe was conversing rather crankily with another slig. As shifty as Garit looked, this fellow looked untrustworthy, no matter who you were. Refocusing his attention to the outlaw, he waited to see what kind of effect his reply would have.

IC:
Jawz cranked his jaw a bit, not really sure what to do now, "I was looking for dinner...what where you looking for?, are you a worker at the mines?" |
IC: Garit didn't really think this outlaw would be all too happy if he said he worked here, which he didn't anyway. "In a manner of speaking... I get what I want, leave and come back later."

IC:
Koimo looked at the big blue egg that had appeared a small distance in front of him "Yeah, that might work. A lot more believable then meat just lying around" He said approaching the egg "So if Athena hides in one of these, what do we do?" he asked and began to rummage through the pile of not very friendly looking things Athena bought. |
IC: Athena's vision suddenly turned into blue as she was magically teleported inside an egg. She let out a little yell and then noticed a hole at the bottom of the egg. Athena grabbed the egg and lifted it over her head. "It sounds bold me of me, but I guess I am the strongest and toughest of us. In that case I should be the bait"
Athena smiled at Koimo. "Take anything you like", she added. Athena took off her visor and started rubbing it with a cloth. |
Boss Hoss's eyes widened and his pupils shot straight at the diamond in Larz's grubby green fingers. ".... R-real diamonds? R-r-reeeeal real diamonds?" Immediatley, the wolvark snatched away the diamond for himself to view. It was quite small, but size doesn't matter too much. It's the overrall value of the thing that mattered. Hoss decided to keep his head on straight and just pondered on the possibility that this shiny rock might be a fake. "Show me that thar sight ya blasted at earlier!"
------------------------------------- Hydra pondered to herself ... "Well this should be easy. We'll look for an outlaw or two." Hydra played out a funny monster face. "Maybe .... I or Koimo could make some kind of yell that would catch their attention! Awright? Right? Ya get it? Then we all hide in our places before any of em' spot us! Then when the outlaws hopefully reach for either the meat OR for the egg, Athena can hatch herself, 'n then we all jump out and kick ass, activating the outlaw traps!" Hydra suggested with much confidence. The grubb noticed the Big Sis slig wiping her face. She playfully squeezed the egg over Athena again, curling her up inside, and jumped into Koimo's arms. "How 'bout it?!" -------------------------------------- OOC: Mafisto is simpl wandering the forest again. Nothing big yet. |
IC: Jawz scrutinized the slig again carefully, he had the mind of a sneak and wasn't giving much away, "What's ya story then slig, why you running away?"
