The Dead Horde: Part 2

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 11:02 pm

Year 4E32.
Divayth Fyr claims to have found the cure for corprus. Test subjects already infected with corprus show 100% improvement, becoming completely human in a matter of weeks. Tests on normal subjects (subjects without corprus) have shown the opposite effect; the subject transforms into a full-fledged corprus beast in a matter of days. Divayth Fyr decides to have the cure confined to his corprusarium.

Year 4E35
Divayth Fyr decides that one of his cured subjects, known only as Mike, is ready to be released back into society. But Mike has bigger plans. When Divayth takes Mike to Balmora for release, Mike steals a bottle of the cure, taking it with him.

One week later
For unknown reasons, certain citizens of Balmora have shown signs of corprus, and the disease is rapidly spreading. Divayth Fyr attempts to give those who are infected the cure, but then finds that the disease has mutated, forming a new, more resistant strain. Fyr returns to his tower indefinitely, trying to find a cure for the new strain. All clues point to Mike as the culprit.

Year 4E38
All of Vvardenfell has been infected, the status of Divayth Fyr is unkown. The disease has spread to the mainland, and corprus beasts have destroyed Mournhold and killed all of its inhabitants, including King Helseth. The Horde now moves to the other provinces, the majority heading toward Cyrodiil...


You play as a normal person, trying simply to survive the onslaught of the corprus horde, which is right at your doorstep in Cheydinhal. The Empire has lost all communication with Morrowind, and nobody alive is aware of the looming corprus threat. Ocato has dispatched a large portion of the imperial legion to guard the Cyrodiil-Morrowind border, spread thin across the contryside. You can work with others, go it alone (not advisable), or take the fight to the monsters in the fight to survive.

Some info on the corprus beasts.
About 80% of the horde will be mad up of generic, but powerful, corprus beasts. Although quite strong, they move obnoxiously slow due to their extensive muscle and bone decay. They can run clumsily to a certain extent. These beasts have heavily decayed brains, only able to make simple thoughts, and have only the most primal of instincts: To stay alive, and to eat.

Another 19.9% of the corprus beasts will be made up of the recent infectees; these beasts have only recently be infected, and therefore will not have suffered from the same muscle and bone decay as their slow counterparts. Their brains, however, are just as damaged as the others and stil cannot carry out complex thoughts.

The other 0.1% (one in a thousand) is quite different. This group is made out of corprus beasts that were exceptional in their life. These beasts had immense willpower as a human, and therefore retained much of their mind, stil able to carry out complex thought processes. These few can cast spells, use weapons and tools, even command lesser corprus beasts. Be wary of them, as they can match and even outsmart your character.

All corprus beasts, no matter how powerful, are extremely sensitive to UV radiation, and therefore stay out of the sun. Thus, they only come out at night, often hiding from the sun in caves, ruins, or even people's basemant's during the day.

What's happened so far

http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?showtopic=0
The Corprus Horde, its existence unknown to the public, attacks the city of Cheydinhal one rainy night. The horde engulfs the city, devouring all who stand before it. The lucky survivors start to form small groups. Fanier and Amiel (an altmer/bosmer cross-breed and an imperial, respectively) make their way to the Cheydinhal castle, with Primo, a guard captain, and Calendras, an altmer necromancer, folowing close behind. The group survives the night hold up in the castle.

Morning comes, and the Corprus beasts flee teh sunlight, leaving the city in ruins. Fanier, Amiel, and Calendras scavenge through the ruins for survivors and supplies. Calendras separates fro the group to search his house, finding a large group o survivors hiding within. Rather than offering them refuge, Calendras sees an oppurtinity to practice his prodigious skill in necromancy, slaying the lot. He then piles the bodies into a large cart, which he totes around with him for later use.

Fanier, after seeing the bodies, examines them, and finds out that it was Calendras that killed them. Outraged, Fanier nearly starts a fight with Calendras, but deems their current situation too urgent to lose another worker among the group. Meanwhile, Primo meet up with Adrian, an imperial mage. Rothis, a dunmer blacksmith, and Trisha, an argonian girl, continue to wander the ruins independently from any of the others.

All the while, Durus Broad, an imperial, is barely surviving in his village outside Cheydinhal, one of the first to be attacked by the corprus beasts...

RavenVW
Name: Durus Broad
Race: Imperial
Gender: Male
Age:27

Skills: Tracking, Bow, Light Armour, Blade, Speechcraft
Class: Hunter

Mental Profile: Although still relatively young, Durus knows a lot about different forms of hunting. Be it deer or daedra, he is familiar with adventure, battle and misery at a young age, but he likes to feel it hasn't affected him, which is true to an extent. He's witty, fun to be around and generally a pretty talkative fellow, but his past has made him vengeful, and aggressive. It's a flaw to his character that has helped him survive in life.

Weapons: A strong wooden bow that he crafted himself, and a delicately balanced steel longsword. He is skilled with both.
Armor: Prefers light armour, as he is a fast mover rather than a big hitter. Most of the time sports simple leather armour.

Physical Appearance: Genuinely handsome, with a straight nose, strong chin and short, clean brown hair. He nonetheless has something underneath that exterior appearance that doesn't reveal itself until he gets angry, he has a stare that can break a man, and his glare is twice as strong. His eyes are so dark they're almost black, and his forehead is already beginning to get noticeable frown lines.
Unique Appearance: Several scars across his arms and body from hunting, but no particularly mentionable ones.

Short Bio: At the age of fifteen his mother was killed by a vampire, and his father was badly wounded. Knowing that he would turn into a vampire, the father asked to be killed by his own son, and after Durus denied, he threw himself off a cliff. Now an orphan, Durus stayed with a close friend for several years, learning the basics of swordplay and marksmanship. Already out of schooling of any form, he began to hunt, small, relatively safe animals at first, he soon began to get bigger aspirations.

He killed his first mountain lion at eighteen, his first bear at nineteen. But it wasn't until twenty that he killed his first vampire, it wasn't the one who killed his family, he never did find that one, but he didn't care. Since then he went after bigger things, even making a name for himself in small circles.

It is these skills, he thinks, that have helped him survive thus far. The village he was in was one of the first place in Cyrodil to bear the brunt of the undead, and now he is imprisoned within his own home, which he has made into a full on fortress. Barricaded on every window and door, the dead have never got inside, but he is running short on supplies.

Aulakauss
Name: Trisha Cerrius; Dessinta [Lapsed]
Nicknames: Trish, Tiim-Kast (male alias)
Gender: Female
Race: Argonian [Morrowind variety]
Age: 19
Birthdate: 5th, Sun's Height
Birthplace: Drellor Plantation, mainland Morrowind

Class: Tinker
Class Description: Trisha is a tiny being of massive curiosity, and as such, reads, researches and experiments a lot. She works mostly with Alchemy and the study and (attempted) assembly of Dwemeri-style technology. She refers to herself as 'A scholar and a tinker.'
Major Skills: Enchant, Alteration, Acting, Alchemy, Mechanical Construction
Minor Skills: Restoration, Illusion, Destruction, Athletics, Mysticism
Birthsign: The Apprentice

Eyes: Bluish green
Hair: Fins, purple on the back tips.
Skin/Scale Color: Tan-green flesh with both purple and leaf green scales
Height: 5' 4"
Build: Scrawny and Thin, save for her legs; often misses meals.

General Description: The best words to describe Trisha's physical appearance are unkempt and cute. She is one of those people that you're never quite sure of their gender until they tell it to you, since they look and sound like they could be either an adolescent boy or a young woman. Her body lacks briasts and a navel entirely and the only reason her waist is curved at all is because of how wispy she is; with nothing to support it in way of muscle or fat, the skin between her ribcage and hips has simply pulled tight and curved inwardly.

Her skin is a tannish green color and is only visible on her fingers and palms, around her eyes and mouth and on the bottoms of her feet. Otherwise, leaf-green scales dominate the surface of her tiny frame, covering her in most places. In others, her scaling fades from green to a reddish-purple. These include her rear, the backs and inside of her thighs, the underside of her tail and a large patch from her groin up her belly to the top of the little upside-down V-shape of the bottom of her ribcage. A little smudge of purple is also visible on the very back tips of the fins that run from just above her eye on either side and end at the rear-sides of her skull.

Primary Clothing: Among the few she associates with enough to be herself around, Trisha wears a patchwork shirt and skirt or long, sack cloth pants with a heavily patched blue coat. Otherwise, she either hides herself under her armor or dons a Huntsman vest and pants. She wraps the bottoms of her feet with strips of leather in place of shoes.
Tattoo/Scars/Piercings: Burns and cuts of various sorts from mechanical and alchemical mishaps, mostly on her hands. Her right fin is pierced twice with golden rings. She'd never dream of having a tattoo anywhere, ever, for any reason.

Armor: This sans the boots. Only donned to hide herself or for protection when traveling

Inventory: Apprentice-level Alchemy gear, save for her Master Calcinator, which was a gift from a friend for her 18th birthday. Has a bunch of little organized sacks of ingredients in the smallest, front pouch of her pack and her alchemy gear, gold and potions in the larger one. A homemade steel pocketwatch sits in her pocket, attached by an iron chain to her belt, powered by a shard of a Varla stone. Also carries some bottles of tea and loaves of bread along with two full changes of clothing.

The two small side pouches of her pack are filled with a pair of notebooks, one each: the left one contains machinery schematics and all sorts of miscellaneous notes written in quick quillstrokes that few but her can read, and the right is an exhaustive documentation of every ingredient she has ever found, what effects it has and where it can be found, again along with random scribbled notes only legible to their author. The core notes themselves in both volumes are hard enough to read by themselves, but the margin notes are almost entirely undecipherable.

Weapons: A razor-sharp glass dagger sheathed in leather at her left hip, stained with all sorts of ingredient juices. She has no idea how to wield it in battle.
Magic:
Conjuration: N/A
Illusion: Apprentice
Destruction: Apprentice
Restoration: Journeyman
Mysticism: Apprentice
Alteration: Expert

History: Trisha was hatched a slave, though she thankfully recalls little of her first four years of life. After she'd hatched, she was taken from her parents and sold to a nearby plantation that wanted beast children to raise and sell. Two weeks after turning two, Trisha, then named Dessinta and redesignated Argonian Female #219, was put up on sale in Suran. The tiny Argonian was forced to labor for the slave trader until she was rescued two days before her fifth birthday.

Her saviors weren't heroes though, not in the common usage of the word. A pair of upper-middle-class Imperials, Savain and Marina Cerrius, were visiting relatives in Morrowind and had found themselves appalled at the slave trade and the cruelty with which the Argonians and Khajiit were treated. Marina was, despite their repeated tries, unable to conceive a child and they'd all but given up hope of having a child when Savian suggested they visit the local slave trader and buy a beast-child their freedom.

Upon reaching the trader, though, they found that most of his 'stock' was full-grown. They'd almost given the idea up when Marina spotted a tiny scaled child holding the bars of a cell they'd thought empty before, its little right fin bearing an iron piercing with a little metal tag on it. They took her home to Cheydinhal and raised her as their own, giving her the Imperial name of Trisha. At the age of ten, she showed interest in the local Mage's Guild and, after a little convincing, was allowed to join despite her age.

Now, at the age of nineteen, she is an unsung heroine of her local Guild chapter, a little wunderkind that even the older mages go to for advice regarding Dwemeri and Alchemical studies. She is fairly poor at actual spellcraft, but her vast knowledge and skill in her fields of expertise are enough for most people to overlook that particular flaw.

Personality: Trisha is an introvert, a reclusive little girl that hides in her room in the Cheydinhal Mage's Guild and only comes out for visits to the kitchen, toilet or ingredient room. As such, she hasn't the slightest idea how to deal with regular people. By nature, she is timid, softspoken and if anyone argues with her she backs down and nods while murmuring in mild fear. If faced with something scary or traumatic or given physical threats she will either scream and run, try to hide or, on more extreme occasions, faint. Sarcasm and innuendo are almost entirely lost on her.

Despite this meekness and innocence, she is very useful when in her element. Despite not even being two decades old, Trisha knows more about Dwemer technology and alchemy than a great majority of the entire Cyrodiilic Mage's Guild and will happily recite tidbits of her knowledge to anyone she overhears having trouble with something in her field (unless you look at her menacingly or tell her to be quiet, in which case she falls silent and slinks off).

Sadly, her expertise is rather confined to these two elements of arcane study; her spell casting abilities are limited at best and she can't cast anything more powerful than a small healing spell on anyone but herself, her casting attempts frequently either backfire or fail entirely and she forgets incantations that she doesn't use constantly.

As another result of her reclusive lifestyle and the constant ribbing and ridicule of her magickally-skilled peers, Trisha also has severe self-confidence issues. As she is more reptilian than most Cyrodiilic Argonians, she does not have the shape of most females and is often mistaken for a male, something she is very aware of and extremely self-conscious about. Envious of practically every other female she meets, embarrassed by her lack of femininity and fearing being made fun of, Trisha prefers to speak and act as though she is a male around strangers, leading to some strange and awkward moments of realization for any new friends she makes.

Other Traits/Oddities:
- Cannot tell a joke to save her life.

Misc Skills [non-combat]:
- Considering her meek nature, Trish is strangely good at lying and has no problems with stealing/borrowing the property of others sans permission. With exception of ingredients, she usually puts back what she takes when she's done with it, though.
- Trisha can mimic almost any sound or voice she hears. One of the mages lovingly calls her 'Mockingbird'.

His parents were killed a few moths before the Corprus Invasion, they're deaths unknown. Dealing with both the trauma from his parents deaths and of the Corprus plague, he went crazy, and developed a split-personality, one side being his normal self, the other being a crazy-animal side.

He now wanders the wilderness, mostly in hiding from the Corprus, nearly being killed dozens of times by them. He barely scraqes by each day, which has made him incredibly skinny. He is incredibly skilled in Hand-to-hand combat, due to his 'crazy' side, in combat, Radek's foes usually end up a bloody mess.

Wild-Eye's been on his own for several months, scavenging through out ruins and destroyed cities.

ooc: Ya forgot Trish in the character sheets. :P

Name: Trisha Cerrius; Dessinta [Lapsed]
Nicknames: Trish, Tiim-Kast (male alias)
Gender: Female
Race: Argonian [Morrowind variety]
Age: 19
Birthdate: 5th, Sun's Height
Birthplace: Drellor Plantation, mainland Morrowind

Class: Tinker
Class Description: Trisha is a tiny being of massive curiosity, and as such, reads, researches and experiments a lot. She works mostly with Alchemy and the study and (attempted) assembly of Dwemeri-style technology. She refers to herself as 'A scholar and a tinker.'
Major Skills: Enchant, Alteration, Acting, Alchemy, Mechanical Construction
Minor Skills: Restoration, Illusion, Destruction, Athletics, Mysticism
Birthsign: The Apprentice

Eyes: Bluish green
Hair: Fins, purple on the back tips.
Skin/Scale Color: Tan-green flesh with both purple and leaf green scales
Height: 5' 4"
Build: Scrawny and Thin, save for her legs; often misses meals.

General Description: The best words to describe Trisha's physical appearance are unkempt and cute. She is one of those people that you're never quite sure of their gender until they tell it to you, since they look and sound like they could be either an adolescent boy or a young woman. Her body lacks briasts and a navel entirely and the only reason her waist is curved at all is because of how wispy she is; with nothing to support it in way of muscle or fat, the skin between her ribcage and hips has simply pulled tight and curved inwardly.

Her skin is a tannish green color and is only visible on her fingers and palms, around her eyes and mouth and on the bottoms of her feet. Otherwise, leaf-green scales dominate the surface of her tiny frame, covering her in most places. In others, her scaling fades from green to a reddish-purple. These include her rear, the backs and inside of her thighs, the underside of her tail and a large patch from her groin up her belly to the top of the little upside-down V-shape of the bottom of her ribcage. A little smudge of purple is also visible on the very back tips of the fins that run from just above her eye on either side and end at the rear-sides of her skull.

Primary Clothing: Among the few she associates with enough to be herself around, Trisha wears a patchwork shirt and skirt or long, sack cloth pants with a heavily patched blue coat. Otherwise, she either hides herself under her armor or dons a Huntsman vest and pants. She wraps the bottoms of her feet with strips of leather in place of shoes.
Tattoo/Scars/Piercings: Burns and cuts of various sorts from mechanical and alchemical mishaps, mostly on her hands. Her right fin is pierced twice with golden rings. She'd never dream of having a tattoo anywhere, ever, for any reason.

Armor: http://kvatch.net/gallery/albums/userpics/10278/rogueattire.jpg sans the boots. Only donned to hide herself or for protection when traveling

Inventory: Apprentice-level Alchemy gear, save for her Master Calcinator, which was a gift from a friend for her 18th birthday. Has a bunch of little organized sacks of ingredients in the smallest, front pouch of her pack and her alchemy gear, gold and potions in the larger one. A homemade steel pocketwatch sits in her pocket, attached by an iron chain to her belt, powered by a shard of a Varla stone. Also carries some bottles of tea and loaves of bread along with two full changes of clothing.

The two small side pouches of her pack are filled with a pair of notebooks, one each: the left one contains machinery schematics and all sorts of miscellaneous notes written in quick quillstrokes that few but her can read, and the right is an exhaustive documentation of every ingredient she has ever found, what effects it has and where it can be found, again along with random scribbled notes only legible to their author. The core notes themselves in both volumes are hard enough to read by themselves, but the margin notes are almost entirely undecipherable.

Weapons: A razor-sharp glass dagger sheathed in leather at her left hip, stained with all sorts of ingredient juices. She has no idea how to wield it in battle.
Magic:
Conjuration: N/A
Illusion: Apprentice
Destruction: Apprentice
Restoration: Journeyman
Mysticism: Apprentice
Alteration: Expert

History: Trisha was hatched a slave, though she thankfully recalls little of her first four years of life. After she'd hatched, she was taken from her parents and sold to a nearby plantation that wanted beast children to raise and sell. Two weeks after turning two, Trisha, then named Dessinta and redesignated Argonian Female #219, was put up on sale in Suran. The tiny Argonian was forced to labor for the slave trader until she was rescued two days before her fifth birthday.

Her saviors weren't heroes though, not in the common usage of the word. A pair of upper-middle-class Imperials, Savain and Marina Cerrius, were visiting relatives in Morrowind and had found themselves appalled at the slave trade and the cruelty with which the Argonians and Khajiit were treated. Marina was, despite their repeated tries, unable to conceive a child and they'd all but given up hope of having a child when Savian suggested they visit the local slave trader and buy a beast-child their freedom.

Upon reaching the trader, though, they found that most of his 'stock' was full-grown. They'd almost given the idea up when Marina spotted a tiny scaled child holding the bars of a cell they'd thought empty before, its little right fin bearing an iron piercing with a little metal tag on it. They took her home to Cheydinhal and raised her as their own, giving her the Imperial name of Trisha. At the age of ten, she showed interest in the local Mage's Guild and, after a little convincing, was allowed to join despite her age.

Now, at the age of nineteen, she is an unsung heroine of her local Guild chapter, a little wunderkind that even the older mages go to for advice regarding Dwemeri and Alchemical studies. She is fairly poor at actual spellcraft, but her vast knowledge and skill in her fields of expertise are enough for most people to overlook that particular flaw.

Personality: Trisha is an introvert, a reclusive little girl that hides in her room in the Cheydinhal Mage's Guild and only comes out for visits to the kitchen, toilet or ingredient room. As such, she hasn't the slightest idea how to deal with regular people. By nature, she is timid, softspoken and if anyone argues with her she backs down and nods while murmuring in mild fear. If faced with something scary or traumatic or given physical threats she will either scream and run, try to hide or, on more extreme occasions, faint. Sarcasm and innuendo are almost entirely lost on her.

Despite this meekness and innocence, she is very useful when in her element. Despite not even being two decades old, Trisha knows more about Dwemer technology and alchemy than a great majority of the entire Cyrodiilic Mage's Guild and will happily recite tidbits of her knowledge to anyone she overhears having trouble with something in her field (unless you look at her menacingly or tell her to be quiet, in which case she falls silent and slinks off).

Sadly, her expertise is rather confined to these two elements of arcane study; her spell casting abilities are limited at best and she can't cast anything more powerful than a small healing spell on anyone but herself, her casting attempts frequently either backfire or fail entirely and she forgets incantations that she doesn't use constantly.

As another result of her reclusive lifestyle and the constant ribbing and ridicule of her magickally-skilled peers, Trisha also has severe self-confidence issues. As she is more reptilian than most Cyrodiilic Argonians, she does not have the shape of most females and is often mistaken for a male, something she is very aware of and extremely self-conscious about. Envious of practically every other female she meets, embarrassed by her lack of femininity and fearing being made fun of, Trisha prefers to speak and act as though she is a male around strangers, leading to some strange and awkward moments of realization for any new friends she makes.

Other Traits/Oddities:
- Cannot tell a joke to save her life.

Misc Skills [non-combat]:
- Considering her meek nature, Trish is strangely good at lying and has no problems with stealing/borrowing the property of others sans permission. With exception of ingredients, she usually puts back what she takes when she's done with it, though.
- Trisha can mimic almost any sound or voice she hears. One of the mages lovingly calls her 'Mockingbird'.


And my last post from the other thread.
Trish was sitting against the door now, her feet out at odd angles with her knees touching, snout in her hands and tears pouring from her eyes. They can't be dead. They just can't. They saved me. They've been there for me all my life. I can't lose them now.. Why did this have to happen here? I wasn't exactly happy, but it was better than I'd have had in slavery. I loved them.. I can't accept it. They're not dead.

A shadow fell suddenly over Trisha's small, compacted form and for a moment she thought that one of the things had found her, but upon looking up, she saw that there was an enormous Khajiit standing in the way of the sunlight. She was barely over five feet tall and he had to be pushing seven. From her sitting position, he looked like a fur-covered mountain. Though she realized she was small and looked younger than she was, she tilted her head to the side a bit as she looked up at his face and wondered why he was talking to her like she was ten. Upon a second's thought, she sighed.

I probably look like I'm ten to him.. Huddled here, tiny and crying.

Trisha sniffed and carefully flicked a tear from her eye with one clawed nail. She wished he'd kneel down or something; she was kinda afraid he might step on her how it was. It took her a minute to regain the ability to talk, and when she did, she adopted the gruff male voice that she often used with strangers. Nobody took her seriously when they knew she was a woman. Though she looked a tad effeminate for a male, it wasn't too much of a long shot for someone unfamiliar with the scale patterns of her breed of Argonian to assume she wasn't a she.

"I.. I don't know where my family is." She began in the heavily accented voice, "They were in here last I knew, but.. after last night.." Trish trailed off, hoping he would get the gist of it. She took a deep breath and let it out slowly before continuing, willing herself to avoid tears. She managed not to sob, but liquid still leaked down the side of her snout from her eyes.

"There are others in the castle up the road. My name's--" She pondered a split second, wondering if it mattered if he thought she was a freak or not. She decided that it did, and so she lied. "--Tiim-Kast, by the way. And.. I'm nineteen." The last sentence was said a little softer than the rest, as she didn't want him to think she was being confrontational in correcting what she assumed he'd assumed her age was, but didn't want him treating her like a child, either.

Calendras, headed into the Chapel, the khajiit and argonian seem preoccupied. In side, he saw some monsters. He imediatly spun aroud and walked out the door. He arived back the the fighters guild just in time to hear Amiel and Fanier have the most charming Conversation. "Ohhh!" He said in a dramatic and sarcastic voice "Avenge the deaths of the innocent! Rescue the damsel in distress! Feeling like a rather dramatic and somewhat noble paladin of good today?" He paused amd looked over to fanier "Sir Lancelot, i think....i think i hear a Raponzel calling for help, you better go help her!" Calendras was laughing at himself as he walked into the fighters guild, silly warrioirs with there notions of good and evil he though to himself.

IC: That almost set Fanier off. I'm gonna set this mother [censored] straight, he thought, as he walked up to the necromancer, grabbing him fiercely by the shoulder and turning so they faced each other.

"Listen," Fanier said, almost shouting. "You and me are NOT friends, nor will we ever be. I'm containing myself in not killing you right now. If you stay out of my way, and don't go around [censored] KILLING PEOPLE," Fanier almost lost it there, but contained himself. "Then we'll get along fine. But if you keep on making dumb ass comments like that one, we're gonna have an even bigger problem. Got it? Good." Fanier walked away, not waiting for a reply, but couldn't resist turning around and asking, "And who the [censored] is Sir Lancelot?"

ALIVE INSIDE AND SAFE, COME TO THE BACK OF THE HOUSE AND CALL FOR ME. MY NAME IS DURUS. I AM ALIVE.

He read it over to himself from the outside of the house, happy with his handiwork. He had sealed the hole that was once his doorway through the night and the message he had carved into the wood was plainly visible. Now the back exit was his only way in and out of the house.

More a fortress than a house now. He thought to himself with a small smirk. Through the night he had boarded up all the holes that the bear had made, and also cleaned up the mess. He didn't manage to sleep, he was too nervous, but at least he knew one thing now. The creatures were afraid of sunlight. The one he met had been hiding in the house, and the rest came out of other buildings too, for whatever reason, these 'zombies' were scared by the sun. Which was better for him, no doubt.

Now, there was just the problem of moving the now definitely dead undead bear. It was stinking up the place, even more so than the other creatures were. He looked to the buildings around him, all of them with windows shut and in darkness. They were probably in there now, hiding from the sunlight.

That thought unnerved him slightly.

Frowning, he began to think of ways to try and move the gigantic animal that laid before him, whose head was charmingly crushed on the floor. He actually realised that moving it might be physically beyond his capabilities. "Damn." He muttered under his breath, looking up towards the newly risen sun.

In a hopeless attempt to try and move the beast, he slammed into it with his shoulder. It budged slightly, but not enough to warrant continuing. "Stupid bear." He said childishly, kicking it in the back. Looking up to the sky once more, he said, "Why me? Gods. Why?" Looks like he had to endure the smell. He left the bear where it was, albeit removing the arrow from it's head before leaving, and went back inside to his house. The smell wasn't as bad in here, but it still lingered. His bag lay on the table near the former entrance, and he smiled. Nearly forgot about that.

He opened it and emptied the contents out on the table. There was enough food here to last a few days, considering he ate slowly. He didn't want to risk going back in one of the houses, not yet, not for a while. In fact, his only chance and choice was to look for another place, somewhere where people could be surviving, like him. But he would leave that for tomorrow, or maybe the day after. Truth was, it was still dangerous out there, with or without these creatures outside. He had to be prepared for such a journey.

Just as he was about to turn, he noticed something else amongst the contents of the bag. A small, blood stained book. He didn't remember picking it up, it must have dropped in when he was running. Out of sheer curiosity he picked it up and examined the cover, it was blank, apart from the blood, so he opened it. It was a journal of one of the people who lived in the house next door to his, he frowned, and turned to the last few pages. They started a couple of nights before everyone died, and the last date detailed what happened prior to their own deaths. He began to read the disturbing contents.

ooc: Sweet, my guy got a mention, hehe. I like the thread summaries, I use it in my own roleplay, I hope they continue as good as the first. Continuing from my last post above:

ic: -The book
Elante is complaining about noises in the night from outside and scratching at the front door. She's only 10, bless, but girls her age shouldn't be wandering to the front door downstairs to hear these things. She says that she hears groaning and scratching outside, for a little girl her imagination is extraordinary. I've put her to bed again now.

There's something out there, I can hear it too, Elante wasn't imagining it. I don't know what it is but it's scratching at the door and growling. Or at least it sounds like a growl, but more human, like a groan. I've got the axe that we usually use for firewood, whatever it is, hopefully I can scare it off.


Durus turned over the page, already knowing what the man would find out there, his hands shook as he read.

Oh god. It was a man, a dead man. Undead, like you hear in all the tales. I never thought I'd see one for myself, I never wanted to... I never... It bit Ruma. The thing bit my wife! I scared it off, but it bit my wife on the neck. She's barely breathing. Oh god. Wait, she's sitting up from the floor, she's alive, thank god, I thought she was definitely dead. I need to record all this.

The writing trails off and the page is ripped slightly, as if something happened at this time, it then starts afresh on a new page where tear-drops and blood make the words hard to read.

I write this now as my final goodbye to the world. I know that soon, I'll be like them, dead, alive, something in-between. I locked myself in my room upstairs, but I can hear them both on the door, scratching and pounding away. It turned my wife, I don't know how, but she was just like the first one. She bit me on the shoulder, I can barely write. But I must, whoever you are, if you've found this, then you might have found my village. Please, if you ever meet a girl called Elante Arano. Ask her what her mothers name was, if she says Ruma, then you give her this book. She got out of the house before they could get to her, I hope to god she ran as far away from this village as she could... my poor daughter. They've managed to smash a hole in the door now, I can't fight them off. Just... if you find this... please, remember.

The writing trailed off for a final time, and Durus put it down, breathing heavily and sweating. He had forgotten completely about the bear outside, but if these... creatures were spreading the disease. Then he had to tell people. But how? The woods around the village were dark, too dark to be safe, even in sunlight, if these zombies had gotten in there and infected more animals like the bear he encountered, then he couldn't escape.

So he sat there, looking at the book and what the man had written. It moved him, it hit him hard, but most of all, it terrified him.

It terrified him to the very core.

Calendras looked at the angry elf. "Oh, stop sulking, Betsy. You know as well as i do that we're the best of friends. Remember those evenings when we used to frolic in the meadows, singing merry songs of GLEE!" He said with EXTREME sarcasm throwing his hands up in the air, and when he was about to turn away Calendras turned back around and said "Oh, and Betsy darling, I've never killed anyone in my life! Oh, you and your wild imagination. By the way, betsy, Sir lancelot is that guy over there!" He pointed behind Fanier then took off and strode of the the castle at a near run, ready to run if Fanier sgowed signs of giving Chase.

IC: Amiel's blood was practically boiling after Calendras' first wave of comments, but Fanier took action before him. He found himself in agreement with Fanier's comments, but when Calendras replied, he found himself even more pissed off. Fortunately for Calendras, he left before Amiel could respond.

"That man, is [censored] insane." was about all Amiel could articulate. Amiel considered for a moment killing Calendras in the streets, but he realised the usefulness of the man's magic wards. Amiel thought for a moment, and then turned to Fanier. Whispering, so THAT NO ONE BUT FANIER COULD HEAR HIM, Amiel said

"The moment we get to the Imperial city, we'll turn him over to that legion officer."

At this time Ulfgar returned to the fighter's guild, saying "He's accepted the offer....umm, is something wrong?"

Fanier knew it now. He had doubted it before, but now he was sure. There was no doubt in his mind that at some point he was going to end up kiling that mother [censored] ass. Afterhearing Amiel's take, he proposed something a bit more radical.

"I'll do more than turn in that [censored]," Fanier said to Amiel, as he pulled the bow from his back and readied an arrow. This ought to set him straight, he thought, aiming the bow just to the right of Calendras's head, not aiming to kill, but simply to scare him a bit.

Before Amiel could object, Fanier shot, the arrow zooming toward Calendras, narrowly missing his head. Just as Fanier wanted.

Calendras danced down the street singing "Walking on sunshine!". Throughout his life, calendras had handled diffrent people in diffrent ways. When he saw Fanier explode he realised that he had figured out how to push faniers buttons. It could be useful. Some people were best dealt with sarcasm, others with grimness, he himself, being quite Narcistic, prefered the sarcasm, it was hard to stop laughing at his own jokes. His head was full of ways he could use both of them to his advantage. Espicially Fanier, with that kind of rage, he could do a lot with Fanier. At this point he realised both of them hated him with a passion, he could either mend thier troubles during the journey, long enough to ditch them at the imperial city or he could kill them. Decisions decisions! But he could just not bring himself to kill Fanier, the look on his face was just too priceless.

An arrow flung past his head. This was just getting better and better! He laughed.

Name: Tadave Ryon
Race: Dunmer
Gender: Male
Apparent Age: Late Teens, Early Twenties
Actual Age: 25

Skills: Blade, Marksman, Destruction, Healing, Alchemy, Speechcraft, and Mysticism

Armor/apparel: Burgundy Shirt and Pants, Doeskin shoes

Unique apparel: N/A

Weapons: Fine Elven shortsword, inherited from his father
Equipment: All his gold, maybe about 1000 pieces

Physical Appearance: Tadave is of an average build, with mostly muscle and little fat. His skin is of a fairly light blue, and his eyes are red. His hair is in the natural cut, about medium length and blue-black. He is disarmingly handsome, and occasionally draws looks from women. About 5'11.

Unique Appearance: N/A
Mental Description: Tadave is a very social individual, always talking to somebody. He also has a deep need to help people, which drove him to become a healer. His father was a warrior, and Tadave has seemed to inherit his father's instincts, and the ability to remain calm under pressure.

Short Bio: When Tadave was born, his father was all ready to teach him how to be a great Dunmer warrior. He taught him everything he knows about blade, bow, and destruction magic. When Tadave was 14, he decided he wanted to be a healer. His father wasn't exactly thrilled, but he supported him. His mother was very happy with his decision, glad that her child wouldn't be fighting. Over the next 10 years, Tadave traveled all around Morrowind and Tamriel, learning everything he could about healing, as well as making medicine. He gained wide reknown, and was constantly being called to different places to help someone with something the town healers couldn't figure out, or lacked the ability to fix something. More recently, Tadave was called to Cheydinhal to help someone who had contracted some disease the apprentice healer wasn't able to figure out. He was close to the town, close enough to hear the magical voice.


Tadave's gaze shifted to the body cart. He felt a sick feeling in the pit of his stomach. 'All these people killed?" he shook his head and strode over. He figured that they had been killed by corprus beasts.....no, that wasn't right. Infected people. That sounded better to Tadave. Once he was close enough, he peered over the egde. These bodies were in almost perfect condition, except for burns all over them. He looked up, seeing one man walking away, rather quickly. He saw a mer who seemed like an authority figure to Tadave, whose father had taught him to read body language, which was very handy. The man carried himself like a leader. An imperial man came in and said something of the mer. Tadave wasn't really listening, so he didn't catch it. He nervously placed a hand on his blade as he walked into the midst. Tadave politely waited for the elven man to respond to the other man. However, instead of answering, the man pulled his bow and fired at the man walking away. Surprised, Tadave shouted out "Hey!" He approached the mer, adressing his back "Is that really neccesary?"

Fey approached Primo, covered in blood and smiling from ear to ear.
" What the nines happened to you? "
Primo said curiously while shaking his head slightly at the apparent madness.
" Oh nothing just a .. Wait, what's happening over there? "

Primo looked to where Fey had been pointing.
A man had just shot an arrow at another man going down the street.
Primo yelled out for the other men in the area to come with him to see what was happening.

Fanier didn't expect anyone besides Amiel to object, so the dunmer behind him caught him off guard.

"Oh, don't worry. I'm not gonna actually hit him," he reassured the concerned dunmer. But then he saw Calendras's reaction. He didn't turn around, yell, fling a spell back at him, or anything.

He just laughed.

"Never mind," Fanier contradicted himself. "I'm gonna kill him." Fanier readied another arrow, aimed to kill, and shot.

"Fanier! You're not going to influence that lunatic like that, he didn't even flinch!"

Amiel was not really angry with Fanier, arguably Calendras deserved it, but the man didn't even flinch, and Amiel found that quite strange. As a dunmer strode end, hand on blade, Amiel wondered for a second who the man was, but his reaction to fanier's arrow took precedence.

"Considering the person he shot at killed the people in the cart, we're being merciful."

Edit IC: As Amiel watched Fanier attempt to make a killing blow, he found himself cheering for the little arrow wizzing towards Calendras' head. But another part of him felt that Calendras wasn't used up yet. It wasn't the right time to kill him. Torn, Amiel raised no objection to the second shot.

Primo didn't trust him. He appeared to be involved with Necromancy.
None of his encounters with Necromancers had been good.

He looked to Fanier, signifying he was on his side, and spoke.
" Are these accusations true? "
Primo used his Imperial voice and stood upright.

The bloody Necromancer probably deserved it, but still no excuse.

OOC: Smooth, Spider pig, but do you really think their going to believe a guy wearing necromancer robes?

IC: Fanier almost smiled. "No sir," he told the guard captain. "In fact, it was this mother [censored]. I mean look at him, he's wearing necromancer robes." Fanier had half a mind to ignore the guard next to him and just run Calendras through right now, but decided against it. Instead, he kicked the necromancer in the gut.

Fanier looked at the guard. "Could we just settle this between me and him?"

Maybe.. It might be less hassle.. But with these other gaurds here..

" No. Unless there is some evidence against one of you I will do nothing for the time being. "
Hirrus, standing behind him with the other gaurds, let out a groan.
I would love to see this Necromancer cut down..

While they were chatting, calendras was queitly whispering an invisibility spell. It was short, but it would last long enough to get away. He invisibly jumped up and ran down the hill to the fighter guild there was a man who Amiel had called Ulfgar standing there. Calendras stabbed the man in the gut with his shortsword, and toke the mans horse, he tied it onto his cart and set the horses riding, he would get his revenge. He went to his house, where he walked in. and stayed for a second, He pushed thge cart into an alleyway and killed the horse and resurrected it. He stood in his doorway panting not believing how fast things had happend.

IC: "ULFGAR!!" Amiel ran to the collapsing corpse of his comrade. The man was dead. A tear streaked down his cheek as he looked at his fallen brother in arms. Amiel then stood up, with a raging anger the likes of which were possessed only by servants of Mehrunes Dagon.

"Where are you Calendras? I will personally rip out your spine and fashion a belt out of it!" Amiel shouted, his anger clearly apparent in the venom that soaked his words. Amiel ran down the street, checking alleyways and houses for any sign of that traitor Calendras. He eventually found a wagon with an undead horse, and looking towards a nearby house, saw Calendras in the doorway.

"ITS TIME TO DIE YOU BASTARD!"

Amiel pulled out his steel longsword and charged at Calendras.

(OOC: Let's watch the OOC, shall we?)

Tadave was a bit shocked about finding the the man whom the arrow was shot at, but he had only seen him from the back, and hadn't seen the red skull of the necromancer on his robes. Tadave now had an idea why everyone wanted to kill this man. His thoughts drifted back to the cart full of bodies. 'That swit!' he thought 'He killed those people.' Tadave listened to Fanier speak before speaking up "I say we let him fend for himself against the corprus." he said, crossing his arms "Seems to be a fitting punishment for a murder, especially when we should be maintaining our weapons, not wasting them on this mer filth." Tadave had seen the work of necromancers before. It sickened him, that someone could disturb the grave of numerous people so he can have servants. He turned to Fanier and the guards. Corpus was a cruel disease. He wouldn't survive for long.

The guards answer discouraged Tadave, who shot a sideways glance at the necromancer. He dissapeared. Tadave used his detect life spell and gave chase, refreshing it when it neared it's end. The man wasn't getting away. He flashed a somber look at the dead man as he continued after the necromancer.

"Ah, [censored]" Calendras said. It was a bad enough day already. Calendras slammed the door in the face of the charging warrior and ran up stairs. looked down the stairs and sent a fireball down. His wooden house was noe gonig up in flames. He ran to the rooftop, and prepared for yet another leap of faith. Calendras took a deep breath, the drop was too far. He decided to stay and ambush the warrioir.
