Soul-Mark

Soul-Mark

0 INK

Every person has a tattoo-like symbol. Soul-marks. When a girl comes without one, a long waited for revolution begins. And it begins with a group of young people who question the laws of the empire.

1,629 readers have visited Soul-Mark since eternalmoon created it.

Introduction

Nobody is quite sure how it came to be. Soul-marks are on everyone's right shoulder. And while the art of soul-reading was lost in the last revolution thousands of years ago, so people could have a fair chance of living...*cough*... One tradition remains. Your soul-mark is the same as another. Only, one other. Your soul-mate.
The story begins with a girl who does not have a soul-mark. Is she the beginning to the new revolution that so many people desperately want? Desperately need. The Emperor and his terrifying General are heartless to say the least, their soul-marks are thick, black, like bottomless pits. Of cruelty.
As she befriends and pisses off various characters, they find themselves stuck in the middle of the revolution before they know what's happening. They are met with hostile and ill-favoured manners just as much as welcome arms for being saviours. The myth that there was once a girl born without a tattoo, and she ate people's soul-marks, eating their souls, in hope to gain one of her own, haunts the group, and even amongst their own ranks, they question her.
Love, treachery, sacrifice will all take part in this journey.

Roles:

Male 1- Jace Vallahad, played by eternalmoon.
{I do want him to fall in love with Female 1, despite the fact that he meets soul-mate Female 3}

Male 2- Ray Winters, play by echo-of-daybreak
{If possible twin with female 2???}

Male 3- Slyvester "Sly" Broadsword, played by NewKidOnTheBlock

Female 1- Zanetta Xalvadora, played by xfaithyx123
{The girl with no soul-mark.}

Female 2- RESERVED: CherrySwirl
{If possible twin with male 2???}

Female 3- RESERVED: Lovely Spade
{Soul-mate to Jace Vallahad. Matching soul-marks}

Female 4- Red Linwood, played by Angelika Petrova

Female 5- Alicia Harun, played by Rosaramone

Emperor-
{Evil, cruel, wealthy}
General-
{Emperor's solitary advisor, heartless, power-hungry.}

I said in the rules, I don't have many I swear, I'm more than happy to accept other characters as well, this was just a guideline. But I do need Female 1 filled to make story work. General and Emperor can be left until later on, depends on where the story goes.

And you will need to describe your soul-mark in Description as well as you character, and considering it is a physical representation of their soul, it should reflect their character.
PM me and I can reserve a role for you, or just do a character application if you have one of your own!

Toggle Rules

1.) No controlling other characters, unless you have discussed it OOC

2.) I don't mind people doing [OOc....] in posts, because if you are useless and clueless like me its the easiest way of discussing, but try not to do it often and if you do, please do it at the end of you posting.

3.) I'd love it if people did make their own characters, but I do need at least Female 1 to be filled. I haven't been specfic to appearance of personality, the roles I have made are a guideline so people can understand what I mean. If you want to reserve a role, just PM me. Or, make a character application for your own character.

4.) Swearing is fine, and as far romance stuff.. Anything goes as long as its not porn basically.

Zanetta continued to shake Jace but tiredness hit her like a car. Then again she had not slept from the nightmare she had. She laid next to Jace shaking him less and less, weaker and weaker. She blinked slower and slower then she spoke. ''Jace.......Where are we going?'' She groaned weakly then she was out. She looked like a child as she slept in the fetal position with a small smile on her face, faint but there. She was quiet, hardly made a sound except a few sighs of contempt.

Sly gave a small smile, seeing Zanetta fall asleep, looking not at all unlike a child. He finally walked away from the wall, Picking up the discarded blanket and throwing it over her again. He then sat down, watching Red cook the food. After a moment's silence, he looked to Red. "You are a fine warrior. I have not faced an opponent like you in a long time." More silence. "I never caught your name. As my Soul-Mark and red eyes have suggested, I am Sly, the One Who Won the Devil's Respect. I presume that, as a traveller, you have heard of me through rumor and myth?"

"Thank you. It means a great deal to be complememented on skills I need to survive. And I'm not a traveller. My name is Red. Just Red. I don't have a last name any more.." she trailed off, looking at the food, then shook her head, remembering she had an audience. "I've heard of you, in passing, but I haven't heard that many myths or legends about you. many rumors, though. They say.." she flipped the eggs, "that you come in the dead of night, dressed as an old traveller, begging for food. if you are refused, then the Devil himself rears up and murders the men who wished you ill will. Lucky i offered you jerky." she grinned, then plopped the eggs onto a biggish tin platter, followed by the sausages, and put them down inbetween them. "help yourself." she said, picking up a sausage and biting into it.

Sly nodded at her explanation. "I see." He took a piece of sausage, taking small bites of it. He was silent for a while, like he had been before. "That is only partially true...that rumor, that is. I have indeed gone and begged for food, disguised, but the only ones I have killed have been those loyal to the Emperor...and I do not mean blind loyalty. Only those who truly wish for the Emperor to rule with their entire being have I slain." He took some more bites in silence. "Though there is numerous counts of wounds wherever I may stop. I am one for the fight..." He gave a motion with his hand to her. "...as you well know. I hope to find fighters like yourself, who can follow me into battle, to lead the Emperor to his ultimate demise."

Eating the last of his link, he took another, looking over to Zanetta with a smile and a look of mixed love and relief. "Have you heard the stories of the Mother of the Last Revolution?"

"Yes, Sly. who hasn't?" red looked at the sleeping Zanetta. "She's the only way I can come out of hiding." she said gently, then sighed. "I am the only daughter of Lord Abraxas Maybor. The third highest noble at court. I ran away. He's still after me." she expalined, taking a bite of egg, looking at Zanetta again,her eyes distant. "The question is...." she looked back at Sly. "Can she be trusted completely?" she asked.

Zanetta started to toss and turn, groaning in her sleep then it suddenly stopped and no movement came from her. Suddenly a purple aura surrounded her, like mist you could wave it away but it instantly came back. Zanetta turned to her side, her face at Jace's. The blanket slipped back but on her skin seemed to crawl with patterns, pictures, images of places. Her nails grew sharper, longer, blacker. Her hair became purple, dark purple like the aura around her. Her ears pointed and along with her teeth then suddenly it stopped and she blinked slowly and bounced up screaming. As then screaming finished her features returned. It was like night terrors but from others, it was like a transformation of some sort. It was both amazing and scary at the same time.

She then turned on her back with her hands placed in front of her and a small cute smile on her face as she returned to her peaceful state in dreaming.

Sly watched as Zenetta convulsed with worry and cool interest. As soon as she returned to normal, he rubbed his chin in thought. "So the teller was right..." He closed his eyes as he recited the wise words of the crystal-bearer he had once visited.

"What you seek, shall be found
In a foreign far-off town,
Where you shall meet old friends there,
And one who has strange air;
This is the one, but heed my words,
Your fantasies will become absurd.
For while she saves, raises death,
She will also slay one of your best.
For no normal girl is she,
But the Soul-Stealer lies underneath,
But the worst of all, hear what I say,
Is that you, my boy, will not slay
The girl of heavenly signs above,
For this is the one you shall love."


Sly fell silent. "The old hag was right..."

Zanetta woke up in a sweat again and panting like a dog. She swiftly looked around then sighed in relief. She then got up and folded the blanket and placed it near Sly's bag. ''What a horrible dream....'' She said to herself but it was clearly audible. ''It was so real......but I am no monster.....right?'' She then tapped her chin as she pondered on her thoughts about her dream. She then paced back and forth blanking out all around her. She continued to talk to herself.

''Purple hair? Me with purple hair? I-I like my blue hair!!'' She shouted to herself as she tugged on her hair as she some what freaked out. Suddenly her surroundings started to blend together into darkness. She looked at her hands and saw them glowing. She shook them around to make it go away but it didn't. Though she saw nothing but darkness others around her saw her perfectly. She then felt a sharp pain come from one of her hands. She looked at it and the pain continued but as she looked closer her nails started to get sharper, longer and black. Just like her dream. But unlike her dream it was only on her right hand. She blinked as her skin on the same arm started to form patterns that continued to move. But it was not all over her body like her dream. It was like a start of a new appearance or transformation. Suddenly the surroundings returned to normal........but her hand and arm did not.

She then burst into tears both in shock of her arm and terror about it. ''What is happening to me!!? I am normal!!'' She screamed. It was almost in anger. She then charged to the fire and stopped dead near it, looking at the flames. ''I am normal...'' She stated as she shoved her arm into the fire. Instantly the pain got to her and she screaming in pain as her flesh started to peel and flake off. She continued to scream and she did not move her arm away. ''I am normal!!'' She screamed in pain and anger. Her desperation to return her arm to normal had made her mad....

Sly was now truly worried...he had presumed that she just hid away her..."Soul-Stealer"...In shame. He shot up, grabbing her and pulling her away from the fire. "Zanetta!" His voice was a mixture of a cool scowl and a worried cry. Pulling her away, he looked to the arm. "God damn it, Zanetta..." The arm was seriously burned, and would need some serious medical attention. She fought against him, however, which only called for one course of action:

He hugged her.

He wrapped his arms tightly around her, and, he being much stronger than she, kept her away from the flames. "Zanetta...don't do that..." He made a motion to his mark of the Emperor, which, still being shirtless, was plainly seen. "Fire cannot burn away everything." He refused to let go of her, fearing that she would seriously injure herself. He felt fear nearly as equivalent as he had back when he was young...back when he was forced to witness the murder of his family. "I know...it doesn't work like that..."

Zanetta sobbed in Sly's arms. ''I had to try....'' She cried out. Her arm shook from the sever burns, it was obvious her body was in shock with what she just done. She then looked at her arm, the pain was extremely intense and she sobbed out some more. ''Look at what I have done.....b-but I can't except what I am....w-what I am becoming..'' She sobbed out, she then sat near the fire holding her arm and she continued to look at it.

Her claw-like nails were still there and after a few minutes her arm healed but with scars. But the moving patterns were still there. Moving in all directions, making different images within the lines. Her skin on the arm was a pale purple now from the fresh scarring. After a while her face became disgusted. ''Look at my arm.....moving black lines and a purplish tint to my skin....with few thorn-like horns protruding from m-my bones......'' She wrinkled her nose showing her newly formed fangs. ''I feel the lines moving, like veins bumping blood through my body.'' She then poked on her her horns on her arm that grew from her bones and it drew blood and she sobbed some more. ''What? Now I can't even touch someone without hurting them?'' She then ripped part of her dress and wrapped it around her arm to cover it and left the end hanging so that it was like a long sleeve to hide her claw-like nails.

She sighed with few sobs, she dried her eyes and looked up at Sly and smiled at him warmly. ''I-I am okay now....I think....I just have to accept it right?'' She asked both in sadness confusion.

She will also slay one of your best...

The words of the sage echoed in his head as he sighed. "Yes...there is nothing you can do now to change...whatever it is that has happened." He gave a smile, hiding his internal fear. He knew that he was the best one of the group...did that mean that he was predestined to die? "Perhaps it is this form that will be the one to slay the Emporer...who knows? Maybe you will return to normal after he is dead." He knew that this could possibly be true; but what then? What if she didn't? "As to the movements within...you will get used to them." He gave an understanding smile, motioning to his Soul-Mark. "I know."

He then looked to Jace, who was still seemingly sleeping. Sly frowned. Jace, he knew, snored in the slightest when he slept. He was now silent, but still breathing, albiet shallowly. Unconciousness. Poison. Sly slowly placed himself before Zanetta, his eyes darting around the forest around them. "Red..." He hissed, making his words as quiet as possible. "...we are not alone." He slowly knelt down as he picked up one of the poision-tipped needles he had set out, eyes never leaving the forest. He stood back up slowly, listening.

He heard a tree silently creak behind him.

With a quick motion, he moved once again, throwing the needle into the forest as an crosbow bolt shot out from a tree. Both items hit their targets, a black-clothed man falling from the tree, dead, crossbow in his hands, and Sly with a crossbow bolt stuck through his arm. If Sly had not moved into the way, it would have torn through Zanetta's heart. Sly looked to the bolt with a grunt of pain, holding his arm steady, then to the body of the assasin. "Check the body!" He commanded to Red, ignoring the wound. "See if he is in the service of the Emporer!"

Red stood bolt upright, grabbing her bow, her quiver, and proceeding silently to the trees. Once she was on the border, she looked around, then silently reached up, hooked her hand around a branch, and pulled herself into the trees. Within a few moments, There was a hiss of multiple arrows, a few grunts, and four more blackclothed men fell from the trees. Sneaking behin d one, she pulled out a dagger, and silently dispatched him with a slice to his throat. She let the body fall, landing with perfect timing to cover the sound of her own landing with that of the man's. She pulled off the first man's shirt, then thwe second, the third, the fourth. All bore the mark of the emperor but the last. His markings were different. She recoiled with an animalistic hiss, slashing the knife across the coat of arms tattooed on the man's chest. The Maybor coat of arms. The mark of her father. She moved away, crouched like some form of half-woman, half-leopard being, and made her way back to the camp. "they were The emperor's men. And... and my father's." she said, spitting the last word like a bad peice of food that never left her tongue. She crossed the camp, and knelt next to Jace. "We should split up. Take Zanetta to a nearby town. Lunien. Tell them Red sent you. Me and Jace will meet you there. Take the horse." she commanded, indicating Pippin.

Sly kept an eye as Red killed the other men; by taking the shot, he was unable to do the job himself. He was impressed, actually. Many others would not have picked up the other men, who were but reserve to kill when all thought they were safe. However, he frowned when the woman told him to take the horse. "No, Red. You take the horse with Jace. That poison--" He gave a growl; how could he have let this happen? "--that poison has been in Jace's system longer than I have been bleeding. While he will live in either case, he has much less time than I do." He gave a nod. "That poison is a common dosage made from Keberah leaves. The cure for it is found in the root, usually by making a bitter tea or paste. The plant is uncommon in this area, but the root will be found at any medicinal or herbal shop."

He was silent for a moment, taking the time to get out what little supplies he had to treat himself. Using one hand, he grabbed a clear vial from the small kit, biting off the stopper, pouring it over his arm, grunting as the clear liquid hissed against the arrwo and wound, bubbling. He then attempted to wrap the gauze, but had much difficulty in doing so. "Besides," He stated, "I do not know how to ride a horse."

Zanetta watched Sly then she looked at her arm then back to his. ''Sly, Trust me...'' She said clearly as she instantly appeared in front of him. ''Trust me...'' She said to him again. Then she looked closer to him arm and snapped both ends of the arrow then she pulled it out. She then grabbed the sharp end of the arrow she just broke off and slit the palm of her hand and squeezed it. A few drops of blood set upon his wound then she rubbed it in. Then she spoke.

''I am sorry for the pain I caused, but if my arm healed in minutes then my blood should do the same for you. I know because you are strong.'' She stated then she ripped part of her dress again and tightly wrapped it around his shoulder. Then she looked at the palm of her hand and it healed in moments and she showed it to him. ''See, you will be fine.'' She smiled then stood up and looked to the direction of Red. ''We will see you soon!'' She smiled cheerfully. Then she looked back to Sly. ''Time to go.'' She stated.

Sly did trust Zanetta, otherwise she would have found herself flung far from him...actually, this too was a lie. He felt that, no matter what she did, he could not refuse her. If she had indeed put a blade to his neck, or shanked him with a poisoned blade, he would allow her to do so. It was odd. But she did none of these things, instead mixing a small amount of her blood with his after removing the arrow. He watched with interest as she did this, additionally ignoring the roll of gauze in his hands, using a strip of her dress to dress the wound. "Amazing," He thought aloud as he watched her minor wound heal in moments, the flesh, sealing itself with nothing, not even a scar. "I had not thought of that." He then nodded to Red. "Go, take the horse and get Jace medical attention. I shall be fine. We will meet you there."

As they headed toward the town, Red undoubtably preparing to pass them up at a moment's notice, Sly turned to Zanetta. "This--" He motioned to his covered wound. "This was not your fault. I moved into the path of that arrow of my own free will, as I will do again and again as needed." He shook his head. "I will not lie, Zanetta, you are a marked woman. You will be attacked by many more men like we were tonight. But as long as I breathe the good, sweet air of the living world, I will not allow anyone to harm you." He took her hand in earnest. "No one. You're much to important to be counted as just another woman walking. You are needed...for the Revolution..." A slight tinge of pink arose in the face of Sly. "...and...to me..."

Zanetta smiled at Sly cheerfully as she allowed Sly to take her hand, the human one that is. She didn't want him to get hurt from the horns protruding from her bones. ''Sly, are you scared of me? I would never hurt anyone unless I had too. I know I am safe with you, Jace and Red so your an exception. I'd never hurt you guys.'' She smiled then she continued.

''So are you? I you scared of what I am coming?'' She asked polity with some curiosity.

Red nodded, then watched them leave. She looked at Jace. "C'mon, big guy." she said, hoisting him onto her shoulders, then sitting him on the horse before sitting behind him, and reaching forward to take the rains. with a flick, they were off, moving fast and quietly through the wood, in the opposite direction to Sly and Zanetta

Sly was silent for a moment, wondering how to answer the question he was asked of. Did he fear what she was becoming? Somewhat, but for a different reason. "Yes and no...to being afraid of this 'form' you have, no, I am not scared. I have fought with the Devil and won; I have no fear of any living thing upon this earth." He hesitated for a moment. He could not keep his thoughts from her; it is like lying in true love, it was not possible. "However...I do fear that this...form...may put you into a state of mind where you will harm those you care about. While it will not be your fault, if this form were to get out of hand..." He stopped again, shaking his head. "...I fear that I could not, nor would not, be able to stop you. I...I love you too much."

He then gave a small laugh. "Then again, that may not be a bad thing...I never imagined that ever in my life that I would find a woman of whom I loved and would love me back."

Zanetta blushed then nodded in understanding of what he was saying. ''I see, but....I won't lose my life. I am starting to accept myself. More than I did before this happened. It is nice to know you care.'' She pecked Sly on his cheek then she giggled. ''Actually, I am starting to like this new form. Wonder what I can do. I already can manipulate life and dead. Maybe it is stronger....hmmm...I will practice later.'' She then looked at her arm and took off the sleeve she made earlier to cover her arm. As she pulled it off, her scaring was gone. Perfect again but her skin had a purple tint to it.

''Oh, that is good. Well, guess my body forgives me for putting my arm in the fire.'' She giggled. As the moon light shined on her hair you could now instantly notice purple strands in her hair. ''I like myself again.'' She gladly announced. ''But you helped that Sly, for that. Thank you.'' She smiled warmly at him with she poked his unharmed arm and giggled as she skipped ahead.

Sly nodded with a smile, continuing to simply walk, allowing her to skip ahead. "You are welcome." He gave a small chuckle, shaking his head. But his mind was still torn. He loved her...but what if she became the death of him? As he walked, he looked to the moon, thinking. He supposed that if she could accept her fate, as could he. Even if that meant death. He suppose he had no reason to worry; even if his soul were thrown to Satan, he could always remind the Evil One on how he whipped his ass in a fight. Another smile and chuckle escaped his lips.

As they walked, a town came into view in the distance. It was but another town that was forced to submission by the Other Evil One. He gave a "Hmph", his smile flipping into a frown as he saw that the Emperor's men were collecting taxes; hefty ones of unfair value that only funded evil and taken by force. He looked to Zanetta, withdrawing what seemingly looked like a single ninja star from an unknown location of his threnchcoat. "What do you think? Do we lay low?" He flicked the star out in his hand like a fan, giving a smile as six revealed themselves behind the first in a curved line. "Or do we raise a little Hell?"

Red was nearing Lunien. As soon as she reached the boreders, however, she stopped in shock. Guards. They were daring to enter HER home, and collect taxes? She saw one guard strike poor mrs lowell to the ground, and she growled in fury, dismounting and laying Jace across the saddle. She called out in the old WarTongue, she had taught to the children and young ones. "FIGHT!"

Zanetta looked at Sly for a moment then back to the guards. ''Well, I guess I have a target to practice on.'' She giggled playfully then she ran ahead.

She then stopped dead near the guards with her hands behind her. One of the guards turned and noticed her and gave a frown as he spoke. ''Take a step back miss, this is none of your concern.'' He stated, his words chimed in his metal head guard. She stayed there then stood in front of the male victim and spoke as she turned her head to him. ''Run along Sir, best you don't get involved. I will handle this.'' She gave a smile to the man as he scrambled away, lucky with his money.

''Sir! Get back! Miss, you are under arrest from intervening in the law. Come quietly or you will be taken down with alot of wounds. Understood.'' He stated.

Then Zanetta smirked. ''What if I do neither?'' She asked.

''You will be sentenced to death.'' He stated.

''Oh, now that one I like.'' She said in a spine curling tone.

''Ma'ma, Come quietly.'' He asked.

Zanetta tapped her chin then tilted her head to him with a wide grin. ''No.'' She then drop kicks him in the face then grabs his silver short sword and stabbed it into his heart and she smirked. ''Eat your heart out.'' She stated.

''Looks like we have a trouble maker, soldiers, take her down.'' Said the captain without emotion.

''Oh, I like a challenge.'' She grinned then she kicked the guard that was next to the now dying one and dismember his leg with great force, almost not quite human for a girl of her size. ''Come and get it boys.'' She stated with a grin, which provoked the guards.

She then clicked her fingers and the arm that was transformed had a blue flame appear on it. ''Oooo, this looks fun to use.'' She then charged in and as the guards surrounded her she twisted her body in a circle and blasted lightning their way. ''Ooooo, power to wield lightning. Nice.'' She giggled.

As she demonstrated such power the captain shouted out. ''It's her! The one without the soul-mark! Make sure you capture her, alive.''

''Damn it.....'' She frowned at the captain. ''I won't go without a fight tin head!'' She shouted.

Then the captain smirked. ''Men, I said keep her alive. But I didn't say don't harm her.''

Zanetta cursed to herself then beckoned the men to come closer. It was obvious as soon as the captain announced her as 'the one without a soul-mark' they seemed frightened.

Sly gave a laugh as Zanetta initiated combat in a more...subtle...way. He threw the ninja stars at his distance at a small group of guards near a home, the spinning fingures not lonely hitting their targets, but flying straight through them, slicing the metal like it were paper. With a small silence, he dashed with tremendous agility to the last man standing, grabbing him by the throat with his good hand. "If I was not injured, I would tear out your testicles and force you to eat them." With a small, grim smile, he added, "But snapping your neck will do." Throwing the man down, he stomped against the neck with a satisfingly sickening crunch. He slowly looked behind him to see the family he saved cower in fear. Though it did not show, a small pang of sadness hit him as he looked back to the battle scene, some of the young adults defending their homes to the best of their ability.

He gave a sigh. "Amateurs." He picked up two of the short swords from the killed guards, throwing one at a duo of guards that cornered an injured young lad, the spinning blade slicing the neck of one of them. The second looked in shock as his partner fell; a mistake. The second blade went through his eye, the blade piercing the back of the skull, a small ding ringing out.

The ding caught some attention of several more guards, who caught sight of the black-clad figure, and simotaniously paled. "I-It's the Demon!" The Captian growled at the cowardly men.

"You cowards! I'll hang you for treason! It's obviously an impost--"

Before the Captain could finish the word imposter, Sly pointed at the men, giving a one-finger throw at the men. Each one fell, clutching his neck, a poisoned needle in his neck. Sly glared at the man, walking over next to Zanetta. "You were saying?"

The Captain paled slightly himself. "The Demon and the One With No Soul Mark...together..." A weak, cocky smile came to his face. "The Emporer will pay me a fortune. I'll kill you first..." He pointed to Sly. "Then I'll take her."

Sly only shook his head, spying a rather large challenge but a few hundred yards away. "I'll leave this fool to you, my dear." He gave Zanetta a kiss on her cheek, the Captain looking incredulously as he did, then walked over to the challenge he spied, giving a wave and a "Have fun".

Approaching his challenge, a large, burly man the size of three horses, Sly smiled, taking off his coat and tossing it aside, allowing his upper body to be shown, including the mark of the Emporer. He cricked his neck. "I'll settle this the old-fashoined way..."

Red spotted Zanetta and Sly, but was too busy rounding up several teenage kids. Within two minutes, they were in a long line along a ridge, clutching bows. "Remember, sen emba nen Lunien. En nepas canle durien gendes" she said. the words meant, simply, 'we fight for Lunien. oh, and only shoot guards.' They all nodded, raised their bows, and nocked arrows to the strings. "Endes. Carne. LENDMAS!" she yelled, and all hell broke loose as each and every bow found it's place deep within a guard's chest or head. She spotted a guard bent double, clutching his rear, which had an arrow lodged in it. "Arm twitched again, Smithy?" she asked, and a boy next to her nodded. She rolled her eyes, and ran down the hill clutching her daggers, finishing off the last few in a smooth rush of fury. She span round, and found her blade right in front of Sly, ready to slice his throat. She sheathed them, and smiled. "And that's the way we do it in Lunien." she said with a grin, and everyone cheered. She hugged on old woman in particular. She was about half Red's size, an old, wizened crone, but her eyes sparkled with magic. "Well, done, red." she said, and Red beamed.

Sly gave a "Hmph" as Red and the villagers celebrated. "Do not be so hasty." He turned back to the large man, who had been seemingly felled by the onslaught of arrows. His glare silenced the cheering teenagers. "Fools!" He was truly pissed. He had been looking to a good, old-fashioned fight with the man, and now he would have to fight him injured. He pointed with a growl at them. "NEVER underestimate your opponent!"

As if to prove his point, the beast of a man lurched forward with a yell, narrowly missing Sly as he side-steped, kicking the throat of the man, causing a coughing fit from the monstrosity of a human. Sly, while the man coughed, continued on his rant toward the teenagers. "If you all aspire to be warriors, you must be able to fight like warriors!" He gave another kick. "Granted, your aim is well, but have you no respect for a fight of honor between two men?! Have you no honor to slay a man who is committed to battle with a single opponent?!" Turning around, exposing his back to the young ones, he now growled to the man. "Get up."

While he was turned, a sharp-eye of the group noticed the mangled mark of the Emperor on his back. The boy freaked for moment, knocking back an arrow. "He is in the service of the Emperor!" The boy released the string, the arrow flying, stinking itself into the back of Sly, the arrow hitting the shoulder-mark with accuracy. Sly did not flinch, nor did he cry in pain, as the metal head buried itself in the flesh of the male. But he did growl with aggravation. The strip of dress that covered his arm wound burst into flames as a fiery symbol appeared over it, the arm growing in a demon-esqe like mannor. He gave a yell of anger, the flames transferring from his arm to the large male, who screamed as he burned alive.

Sly then turned around, staring at the male who shot him, fury emanating from his very being. "Care to repeat that comment, boy?"

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

I'd hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I will no longer be availible on RPGateway for...well, a while. A month, two, never; I don't know. But life has come up and given me a big ol' slap in the face. "RL issues", if you will.

I don't want to ruin anyone's fun, so, therefore, I give full permission to use/abuse/kill off my characters, or do whatever is necessary to contunue the RPs they are in.

Thank you.

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

w00t! 100th post! Hoo-rah!

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

Okay...Jace is gonna be uber-confused, for it is not like Sly to take on an opponent at such haste, or in an element he is not nearly as skilled in. I'm also wondering if Z will try and drown him...though, she's gotta be running out of breath, too. Dunno. Just so you know, though, faithy, you probably could actually win in this situation--Sly is in the water, without weapons.

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

Sorry!!! I just posted!! sorry for the wait!! ^^''

Life got in the way ¬.¬*

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

*waiting impatiently*

...c'mon, people! Throw me a frickin' post here!

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

Ahh ok! And I have no idea. I did think time differences, because I have no idea where anyone else is, but that wouldn't work, so maybe everyone's lazing or on holiday? It has been the breaking up of all the schools for the summer holidays... but in all honesty, no idea :(

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

Nope, she thought Sly was attacking Jace. Now, WHERE IS EVERYONE? D:<

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

Oh, I thought she just thought the intruder was a guy, haha.

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

Apparently, Angelika didn't understand that Sly was grabbing the intruder, not Jace.

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

I apologize if I'm kinda jumping the gun here, but I'm slightly impatient. ^-^' Sorry!

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

Oh! I am here! sorry! I fell....asleep XD

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

Ill post tomorrow, at a friends for the night.

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

I'm still gonna post mah introductory post, but Sly won't meet anyone yet. I'm gonna be gone this next week.

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

Just to let you know, im not playing god, i did discuss my relationship with echo-of-daybreaks character.

CherrySwirl, you can just drop in whenever, after youve made your character :)

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

I'm bored so I'm going to start it. Faithy, is it ok if I begin with our characters meeting? At the orphanage, I believe your still there. Thats how I'm going to do it, and then you can either decide to be there, or have gone somewhere else.

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

@Lovely Spade, ahh ok. Thanks for letting me know :)

@ Faithy, I didn't know they were spanish! I know a tiny tiny tiny tiny bit of spanish.

@NewKidOnTheBlock- Go for it :)

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

I Hate to say this, but I'm going to have to drop out. Good luck with the rp though :D

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

They are both Spanish =^w^=

My character is also Spanish so it all fits perfectly!

I know what you mean though, it is hard to find good names to match your character's personality and so forth but once you get it, it is all goood :3

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

Just saw Harry Potter tonight. Freakin' awesome.

On another note, I just wanted to say that Sly will probably be one to keep a close eye on our revolutionary 'savior' without a Soul-Mark. Being a man of rumor himself, he pretty much knows any myth or rumor that has come to be. Just wanted to point that out.

Oh! Additionally, can I please, please, PLEASE write an introductory post for my character? It doesn't even have to be in the same place that the introduction will take place in.

Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark

@Eternal: That's cool~ I saw it with the people i saw part1 with. I mean both the introduction and the actual posting,please.
