((Once again I highly stress that salt in the wound is comming and very fast. This thread opens tonight so any one with unfinished business should hurry the hell up! well Or post pone it untill after This... It will probably be remotly short due to the fact that it is a two part saga. This is only the first part and the next part will be after Clutch's.))

Unregistered(d) | It has begun.... | ||
JIhon leans on the podeum... He smiles as everone enters...
"Soul... That thing I showed you... The situation there is getting progressivly worse..." He lets out a long sigh... "The expansion rate has doubled... Since... Since Thisias arrived at The Matri Vihar temple... There was a small period of time where he went into the Solid plane, and at the same time... The sphrere stopped Growing.... " Jihon looks at the rest of the group... He smiles as Kitharsis walks in... "Well... You have changed...." Jihon nods at the rest as they walk in.... "Thisias, some of you have met him and some of you haven't... Thyose of you who have probably know that he considers me his father... This is not the case... You see, he is actually the son of a man named Samita Bed... He wears a mask simular to mine and is the one who cursed me to wear this thing... It follows my soul... It does not exist as a physical object, it exists as a part of my soul... Even if the mask was to be removed, it would explode... The explosion would have enough power to destroy the entire plane it was conatained in..." Jihon pulls out a romote and a large curtain behind him opens revealing a screen. The screen turns on and several numerical patterns appear.... "This is a registry of 80 percent of what makes up the multiverse... This includes The umbras, but discludes anything extra... Now... Many years ago Xavier Triton..." Jihon points to the old man and his face turns red.... "Started doing experiments with warp energy... He is soley responcible for the creation of the warp shield around Cenzar..." Jihon smiles through his mask... "He decided long ago that he wanted to do an experiment... So he sent multible protected probes into the warp... It is one of these probes that found this...." Jihon presses a button on the remote and an audio/video image of the Strange plane comes into view. It is very large and spews out some starnge black energy. It emminates a sound much like that of a woman screaming.... Along with groans.... It sparks with a purple electricity that flows all around it.. It is sphereical for the most part, but changes slightly as if something was fighting to break out of it... The image as well as the sound is quite disturbing.... "Now.... I need your help... WE must find Thisias and get to the bottom of this... I beleive he holds the key...." Jihon sighs and switches off the screen.... "So... Any of you who plan to help me speak now... If not, you are more than welcome to stay on my ship for as long as you like..." JIhon looks at Florentina... "That includes you!" He smiles... "You can tag along unless it is too much for you." Just then Jihon looks around the room... "Has anyone seen my wife?" I white plume of fur can be seen running frantically up the isle... "GABRIEL!" Jihon bends down and picks up the white, fluffy, obese cat and smiles at it. "So... Question time...." Jihon looks around still expectng his wife... "It is not the fear of death that drives us.... It is the fear of eternal life...."

*grip starts to loosen*
O SHIT!!!! *a giant mouse falls on a couple people* owwwww.... *quickly shapeshifts into a dilginian lizard and quickly runs out the door and disapeers down the hallway* |

Soul Reaver | A Warrior's Introduction | ||
In the auditorium, Soul Reaver hears a door opening, and he turns his head to see an attractive woman walking in. He does not recognize her, but can tell from Jihon's look that her presence is not wholly unexpected.
He has not chance to introduce himself, however, before Jihon begins the explanation. Soul Reaver stands with his arms crossed, watching the display stoically, but taking in every detail. When it finishes, he says to himself, "So this is all linked to Thisias somehow..." He is about to speak when suddenly a large mouse-like creature falls from the ceiling behind him, jostling him. He whirls around, his hand going for Blooddrinker, but only just sees a lizard-creature scuttling away into the ship. "Jihon, I am going to assume that that creature was not meant to be here. Perhaps you should get some of the shame slaves to catch it before it leaves the ship." With that, Soul Reaver turns back to face the group once more. His brown, crimson-flecked eyes rest on the Florentia, the woman that Jihon spoke to earlier. His expression is unreadable betraying no emotion or thoughts, but he is studying her carefully, without seeming rude. Soul Reaver performs a respectful bow before her. When he straightens again, he speaks to her. "My first question would be to you, Madam. I see you know my companion, Jihon. However, I know that we have not met before. I would be honoured if you would tell me your name." |

Kitharsis | Re: A Warrior's Introduction | ||
This warp thing, it doesn't seem all to important... but it feels so good to be off of that planet.
Kith pulls the warp device out of his cloak pocket. The rough edged thing sits in his hand, waiting to take him back to the shaman. It's not that he doesn't want to get better, he does, more than anything. But time away might do some good also. He looks up at his little skeleton companion. It nods at him, showing that it will follow whatever he wants to do. Kitharsis smiles, stowing the warp device away in his pocket. Soul Reaver speaks, bringing him to his attention. Kith walks over to him. "Hello again Soul Reaver. I hope that this period of time has proven you well. And who is your friend?" |

Shiro took his chance to leave the shadow of the woman, who's name he thought was Florentina, when he heard what sounded like a military breifing. He emerged behind the woman and into a strange place he'd never been before, though it looked like an auditorium. Shiro listened to the masked man make his little speech while he looked over "Florentina", if that was her real name. He couldn't really see anything, mostly because of the large trenchcoat she wore, however, he summized that she was either part of an 80's cover band or that she was having a bad hair day.
Anyway, when question time came up, Shiro raised his hand to get the masked man's attention. "Yeah, I have a few." He paused for a second to collect his thoughts. "Like, what is that gigantic pulsing black mass on the screen; who are all you people; and where the hell am I?!" |

Jihon looks at Soul after the mouse creature left...
"Ummm... Yeah..." Jihon points to some of Shame slaves and almost instantly they run out of the room in every direction... "Eh?" Jihon watches as Shiro appears.... "Ummm... Yeah..." Jihon looks at him closely.... "Well you are on my ship... And That thing you saw was a plane... But I like to call it a warp tumer...." JIhon looks puzzled... "But at any rate, anymore questions?" "It is not the fear of death that drives us.... It is the fear of eternal life...."

xenostike | Re: It has begun.... | ||
fuck that was close, and i lost my daggers damnit!!!
*sees 2 things and hides and waits for them to pass* it is not safe too stay like this. *transforms back to mouse form* now to have fun. *transfroms into a opalmian attack bear* heh, this will be good. *begins to chase the things* |

Soul Reaver | More New Faces | ||
Soul Reaver looks Kitharsis over.
"I am well... though I must say, you are looking somewhat changed. It is not unusual for you to change your form... but I sense that this one is somewhat different? As for my friend here, I do not know. She has yet to introduce herself." When Shiro appears, Soul Reaver raises an eyebrow. "I will introduce myself to you soon enough - but first I would finish my business with the lady." (ooc: Waiting for Florentina to post a reply...) |
|||
Unregistered(d) | Re: More New Faces | ||
It wasnt unusual to be bombarded with information and questions when you were unfamiliar to those around you, but Florentina could feel herself becoming quite uneasy. She faked a smile and offered her hand to Soul Reaver.
Ah, yes, I am Florentina Iannuci, dear sir. Your friend Jihon here offered me a temporary place to stay on his station. It was rather hospitable of him. From behind her, Florentina could hear another man chime in and ask just who she was. She was slightly embarrassed, and not in the least expectant of all the inquiries. (OOC: Very sorry! I've been extremely busy the past couple of days!) |
|||
Kitharsis | Re: More New Faces | ||
(heh, she called Kith a man, and he's all but that, more like a thing.)
Kitharsis nods after Soul Reaver notices the difference in this transformation. After the girl tell Soul Reaver her name, Kitharsis smiles in her direction. "I am Kitharsis, nice to meet you." He then redirects his attention back to Soul Reaver, replying to his observations. "Yes, this transformation is quite different that my last ones. This form is permanent. I am now what my people call a Tirthandara, or a Tirth Knight." He leans down so that he can whisper. "Do not tell anyone this, but I have lost all of my old abilities. I've actually had to learn to fight all over again, and my powers are less than honed. I cannot stay long, my training is still unfinished. I'm trusting you with this, friend." |
|||
Soul Reaver | A Welcome | ||
(ooc: Kitharsis, I think she was actually referring to Shiro)
Soul Reaver nods lightly in acknowledgement of what Kitharsis has said - an indication that he agrees and will not reveal Kitharsis' secrets Soul Reaver takes Florentina's hand - his own gauntleted hand dwarfs hers as he does so - and kisses it lightly on the back. Doing so is considered good manners amongst the knights of his homeworld when a lady offers her hand. Still, however, his expression remains unchanged. "I am pleased to meet you. I am known as Soul Reaver - I am a wandering warrior. I trust Jihon's judgement of your character, so you are welcome here." He then turns to Shiro. His expression seems to harden. "You, however, I am not so certain about. In answer to the question that Jihon has not yet answered: I am Soul Reaver, a friend of Jihon's" He points in the direction of the masked figure. "You are apparently disoriented, but I would like to know why you are here." |
|||
Unregistered(d) | Re: A Welcome | ||
"So would I." Shiro replied, rubbing the back of his head. He'd ran through a cover story twenty minutes before, just in case someone asked him that very question. "You see, I woke up here in this place. Though, I blame fate for bringing me here." It was an the norm for the people of his trade to feign honesty for the smallest things and tell half-truths, if only to protect their lively hood.
"My name is Shiro Kage," he bowed slightly, not needing to watch the large night because of his training, "a ronin without a master to serve." He considered the idea of joining this group on whatever job they were attempting. It would provide him cover from the people who wanted him dead (even though they couldn't kill him) and he might just be able to earn a few bucks from it. |

Jharm | Re: A Welcome | ||
As Jharm is waiting in the auditorium, the lady from before walks in and talks to Jharm and Soul Reaver. Before he can answer though, Jihon starts his speech. Jharm then silently listens to what he says. He then sees Shiro appear and begin to ask questions.
"I am Jharm, Seraphim of God." Jharm then redirects himself to Jihon. "I will follow you wherever you go Jihon, until this problem has been fully dealt with." Jharm then walks over to Deravon. "Since it seems Fei will not be here, I think he would probably want you to follow us, I am an old friend of Fei." "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End" Revelations 21:6

Jihon looks around...
"So I take that as everyone in this room want's to help?" Jihon looks around... "Ok then... Get these motors running... We are going to the Temple of the Matri Vihar!" Jihon throws his fist in the air.... "Let's go!" "It is not the fear of death that drives us.... It is the fear of eternal life...."

Soul Reaver | Doubts | ||
Soul Reaver watches Shiro carefully as he explains himself. However, he does not trust this man fully.
"It seems strange that you would just... awaken here. But then again, Jihon's ship seems to be full of new faces at the moment. Perhaps I will be able to help you discover how you got here later on." With that, Soul Reaver gives a small curteous bow as a farewell, and walks over to Jihon. He lays a hand on his shoulder. "Jihon, I will gladly join your quest. But tell me, what exactly can we expect from this Village of the Matri Vihar?" |
|||
Unregistered(d) | Re: Doubts | ||
Soul Reaver? Wandering warrior?
Even with such a lurid name, Soul Reaver failed to make a questionable first impression. In her eyes, he had the manners of a perfect gentleman, and she was quite touched by his friendly gestures. But now, larger things were afoot, and Florentina felt left in the dark. The names of places, people, and experiences were thrown around, and she hadnt even had the slightest clue as to what exactly was going to take place, let alone what the Temple of the Matri Vihar was. Florentina clasped her hands in front of her and let out a heavy sigh. Well, I suppose I have choice but to follow them. What am I going to do in a space station, anyway? Obviously, not much. From the cold steel floor, her gaze shifted to Jihon and Soul Reaver. She smiled slightly and came to a realization. Those two I feel most comfortable around. I hope they wont mind if I tag along with them for a bit. |
|||
Kitharsis | Re: Doubts | ||
Kith watches as Florentina clasps her hands and sighs. He remembers when he first met his companions. They were quite odd at first. Some of them still are. He turns to her and starts talking.
"You know, I haven't been in the company or Soul Reaver or anyone else in this group for all too long. They are good people, regardless of what they look like or act like most of the time. I think you'll fit right in, and if you ever need anything, just ask and I'll try my best to give you a hand." |
