Introduction
Magical creatures are also told to be lurking the forest, protecting the treasure. And also monsters. Those who have journeyed there have not returned. Will the characters survive? Is coming to the forest worth it?
The setting will specifically take place within either the entrance or within the forest. Prefer that we be humans, or anything humanoid. Anyone can join, semi-literate or literate please. When I say literate, I mean you can type full words, read full words, no chat speak like "u", or "kno". Also if you can, know some form of Ooc and Bic, thanks. Orginal story and setting, I give credits to rise_of_the_murlocs. Thanks rise of the murlocs.

He was deep in thought, but stopped before a large clearing. A huge fiery beast with what looked like stone for skin loomed above the trees, speaking in a language that Rh'rohild couldn't understand. But that didn't matter. What mattered was that something about this creature was wrong. Unequivocally, unquestionably wrong. Rh'rohild knew that it didn't belong here, and he was going to make sure that it didn't. He started preparing a powerful spell that he hoped would counter the dark flames, but he knew he had made a mistake. The giant rock creature turned a roared, and Rh'rohild knew that he couldn't win. So he ran.
Only a few minutes later he heard a cracking sound and turned. The creature that was chasing him roared in pain and frustration as its flames extinguished and the boulders that made up its body turned to fine ash as they tumbled down.
Rh'rohild found himself at the mouth of a dark and foreboding cave...

The elf moved towards Brising and swung her legs over the Chimera who resigned from his rest and stood loyally, also staring at the mage expectantly. She was preparing for at least a semi-hostile response from Orion. It was only natural when one's life was being threatened; Sylph stared at him stubbornly and folded her arms together, daring him to turn away from her burning gaze. "We're going to need a fast ride and Brising will do. Either you get on the Chimera, or I'm leaving you here." she told him in a casual manner, patting the extra space behind her. The Chimera growled uncomfortably at having to carry not one, but two people on his back.

Adjusting her shoulder bag and making sure her long dagger fitted well in the side of her right boot, she kneeled down almost to the ground to prepare for a sprint. She was swift and could run pretty fast, but in the night she couldn't see as well so she hoped she'd be able to follow their pace.

That something tempted him to step closer, tempted him to give into curiosity. Rh'rohild refused.
The thing leaped up, flames crackling anew, its hulking presence once again dominating the skyline. Its prey had not given in to the ambush, and now it was desperate. It knew time was running out.
Rh'rohild dodged blow after blow, clods of earth smoldering under the constructs massive fists. He knew he could not fight it alone, and so he continued to evade the attacks, hoping that the adventurers he had been spying on would come to his rescue.
He originally intended to kill them if they stumbled across his home, and the treasures within. How ironic.

Upon hearing the creature looming over their heads, he quietly made his way through the forest making sure not to rush himself. If he was going to take Orion's words seriously, he did not wish to die just yet, especially not like this.
He saw Orion transform himself into a hawk and perch himself atop Slyph's shoulder. Slyph climbed aboard her chimera and backed into the trees as Severyn followed behind them. What to do... He decided he would keep pacing forward anyway to get out of here. Why did the Infernal have to come now of all times? How did it get here, and who was it drawn to? It certainly couldn't be Nicholas that he was sure.
Passing through the bent branches and narrow ways, he made sure to creep through and not make a sound. In the night, his breathing was still made visible by the moisture in the air. The amber light still seemed like it was pretty far.
Nicholas gave a signal to Slyph and the group from the side. Pointing two fingers towards the hills to the north, he hoped his sign language could be made visible in the moonlight. He was making his way through the brush and although not next to them, was within the same area.

However he did know magic of another kind.
'If the creature is made of dark fire, perhaps I could weaken it, if only just.' he thought to himself, as he dodged yet another pounding blow.
Rh'rohild summoned up all the power he could, and focused both it and his mind as he stood motionless. If the creature could feel anything, it would be surprise.
A pure whitebeam shot from the mage's hand, Illuminating the creature. White flames erupted from its chest, and began to creep all over its body. The white fire seemed to be fghting the creature's dark red flames, which began to drip from the stone that comprised the fiends body. In that instant, Rh'rohild's mind touched that of his foe.
The struggle seemed like an age, but the mage managed to win the mental battle, using the Infernals own pain and fury against it. Ro'rohild kept his sanity, and his free will, and now the only fire that burned was that in the Infernals eyes.
He threw his spear and it skewered one of the glowing red orbs, causing the creature to roar in pain. It was mortal, if only just. It needed to only touch him once, gain a single drop of a mage's blood, and it would be back to full strength.
And Rh'rohild knew he could not cast the spell a second time. Apparently, so did the infernal.

Now was the time to strike. If he waited any longer, there wouldn't be another opportunity; the infernal could end it all at any moment, and from what he could compare from before, the reptilian was backed against the ropes, "It would be a shame..." The lupine thought to himself as he drew twin blades from their housings with a soft hiss of steel.. "..to see such skill put to such waste," ..and lept from his perch. Down, down, down, he dove through the branches, closing in on his target, until...whoom! He blinked away, if only to flick back into materialism above the demon's head. In a passing strike, he spun, and cleaved one blade cleanly through half the infernal's head, which bellowed in mortal agony. Still yet airborne, he spun to rake his offhand in a backhanded blow across the second half of the infernal's head, neatly cleaving it in two with a loud snap of steel through rock. Hopefully, that would do the trick, but at the very least it would distract the thing. All that was left was to watch his effort bear fruit.
Whoom! The lupine blinked away again. Whoom! And with a rush of wind and leaves, rematerialized on the forest floor not more than a few paces away from the until-recently floundering reptilian; blades low at his sides, feet set, and muscles tense, ready for anything. This was turning out to be a fun trip.

The huge construct started to topple, as its legs were cut time and time again. When it was on the verge of falling, Rh'rhoild took his chance and drove his sword into the hole that the lipune had created. The sword glowed white hot, and rh'oild was forced to let go before it melted and flowed into the would he created. The thing howled so loudly that he shought it would crack the sky, and then crumbled. A large pile of broken rock was all that remained.
Once he had gained his breath, he asked the lupine what the creature was. 'I have never faced anything like it, even in my many years of exile.' He breathed, still racked from his spell. 'I know it's name', he added, as he wrenched his spear from what remained of the head. 'But that was not the spell's purpose, merely a side effect.'
[In the earlier spell, Rh'rhoild and the Infernals minds touched for a brief second. They both knew what each other was called, but nothing more than that. You may notice that in earlier posts I do not call it an 'Infernal', but use workds like 'golem' and 'creature'.]

"What is it?" He'd regard the reptilian calmly, riding the high induced from the satisfaction of such decisive blows to their foe. Nothing got him off more than a quick and precise kill. It was what he was good at. It was what he lived for, but he kept his relishment under wraps, as if there was nothing to be excited about.
"Dead, is what it is," For a split second, his voice might have seemed to invade every corner of the reptilian's mind, and just as his words began to trail; a vastly distant echo, as if whispered from the deepest reaches of the forest. The next time the warrior would turn to face the stranger lupine, he'd find him vanished, just as quickly as he'd arrived - which could have only left the reptilian to question if the lupine was not real, but only a figment of his imagination, or the forces that inhabited the forest playing tricks on him. Sure enough though, the behemoth was defeated, and ultimately, that was all that mattered.
[This is assuming, of course, that Rh'rohild had asked him what the thing was. I may have read that wrong. ;>> Anyway, don't you worry about him disappearing and such, that's just how he does his thing. He'll show up again, hopefully sooner, rather than later, depending entirely on how the rest of this story goes. However - if there's more that Rh'rohild wanted to say to him, or more interaction that you desire, let me know, and I'll just edit accordingly.]

Re: [OOC] Medieval Fantasy Roleplay
Anyway, I'm not sure that'll do it in terms of killing an infernal, (hence why I took no sort of real control over it) but at least Iksin saved Rh'rohild's hide, even if it's only temporary. Oh, and before someone jumps to scold me, I read Frac's post "can't be harmed by mortal weapons" - with that in mind, obviously Iksin's blades have more to them than simple steel. ;P
On a final note, when I talk about Iksin's planeswalking (teleportation) ability, think Jumper - Same deal. I realize it could have the potential to be overpowered, but trust me, there's limiters on it, and I won't abuse it, it'd ruin things.

Re: [OOC] Medieval Fantasy Roleplay
Certainly an original idea for her abilities. Possible stealth/illusionary? I have however seen a few people come up with great ideas that sound awesome but cant really do anything. But your ability sounds like it could have a lot of uses.Blinding an enemy or creating false illusions for example. I take it this character isn't one for front line fighting?
