Post by Javal Zarrias on Sept 5, 2023 13:24:28 GMT -5
Javal was about to embark on another test for science for the third time in his life.
He was given an assignment from the enigmatic Professor Lloyd after he searched and found him at his mother’s inn at Thorock. After already being assigned to deal with Boogaboo in a day he thought his mission was over but no. Lloyd went up to him and told him that he forgot to mention but he was going to need some help with researching Ooze's birth. Although initially, Javal was hesitant and kind of uncomfortable with proceeding with the quest. After some long-winded lecture on how amazing this kind of discovery could be for the sake of science and a little bit of a desperate look on Lloyd’s face, Javal relented and headed immediately toward the eclipse jungle. He left in a rush not wanting to waste his team off time.
It was a very very long and boring run even with his frozen feet added speed but he made it. As he entered the forest he raised his guard. He'd never been in the eclipse jungle before he wished he had a buddy here with him to keep him company at least but he continued into the jungle moving vines and other flora out of his face as he went.

"This going to be sooooo boring." Ulmiyda scoffs as she looks towards the dense treeline. “I think it will be rather relaxing, besides, your parents will be pleased to know that you’re out doing research on your own.” Cervayhn replies calmly as he steers their flame embellished wagon, which is pulled by a massive frozen steed. The pair find themselves on a rather peculiar job in comparison to their recent mishaps. A researcher named Lloyd had put up a commission for some field research, willing to take any adventurer up to the task. Their first task was rather easy, they simply needed to observe how the monster replicates itself, no need for combat… or explosions for that matter. The young dark elf girl leans back into the carriage seat with her arms folded as she looks to her retainer with annoyed frown. “Well we could have at least gotten a more interesting monster than some pile of goo.”A sly smile creeps its way onto the older dark elf's face as looks down at his young master. To Cervayhn, this was a rare opportunity for him to use his reconnaissance skills, while also giving Ulmiyda a chance at some further education. Oozes were naturally fire resistant, making them an ideal subject of study for a certain fire obsessed child. The Eclipse Jungle was a less than ideal place to conduct such research, considering their previous run in with a giant spider and hydra, but the young girl couldn’t think of a better place to hunt a monster, now if only her retainer could find another babysitter to take over so he could nap. “Who knows, you might grow to like them by the time we are done.” The older dark elf replies confidently as he meets his master’s frown. A sudden rustling through the jungle brush catches them both by surprise. Ulmidya's fingers immediately glow, ready to incinerate whatever ambush lies ahead, While Cervayhn’s free hand latches onto several throwing knives. Their hastiness is unwarranted however as peculiar fellblood emerges from the underbrush with a frozen step. Cervayhn raises an eyebrow as he looks at the man with a mildly confused expression. “Hey buddy, you look a little lost, need a ride?”
Bringing: Cervayhn Halist - Warlord Npc
Frigid Steed - (Mount)

Javal sprints and jumps out of a bush in front of him, lands on an open road, and looks over at the sudden appearance of a wagon as he hears someone call out for him.
He sees a dreary-looking fellow with a young dark elf girl and says in response to the man’s suggestion with a smile as he does so, “Hello there good sir, pardon for scaring you there and almost hitting by your wagon, I am indeed completely lost yes, and I would love a ride if you are offering”.
He then walks over to the side of the wagon and walks up and sits across from the dark elf girl with no sense of worry.
He suddenly facepalms at his rudeness and immediately bows before saying, “I apologize for my rudeness my name is Javal Zarrias, president of the Drakon Security company, and former member of the Black Dragon Pirates, I am here because I was hired by a scientist fellow named Professor Lloyd to observe slime reproduction but I got lost in my trek here and now I am here in this wagon of yours. What are your fellows doing here if you don’t mind me asking?”.

Cervayhn observes the fellblood with a curious expression; for someone who has been trekking through the Jungle for quite some time, this Javal fellow is bizarrely nonchalant. While he senses no ill intent from the man, it’s best that he keeps an eye on him, just in case. He whips the reins as the overly jovial man sits down. “No problem, welcome aboard, I’ll let my young master explain the situation.” He replies nonchalantly.
Ulmiyda on the other hand, has her distrust on display for all to see. She rises from her seat as Javal sits down across from her. She looks over him as she holds her scimitar in its scabbard, her posture unwavering despite the wagon’s constant speed atop the bumpy terrain of the jungle floor. “The name’s Ulmiyda, Ulmiyda Flameborne, my retainer’s name is Cervayhn. We are also here on Lloyd’s request, although he didn’t mention the need for any security detail.” Her brow furrows as her nose twitches. “There is something fishy about you, you smell too much like the ocean. How do I know you are not an assassin, sent by those crabs as a form of retaliation?”
Cervayhn sighs at the young girl’s absurd accusations. “Ulmiyda, he said he is a former pirate. You know, the guys that sail the seas plundering and looking for treasure?”
Ulmiyda looks at the older dark elf with a confused expression, before looking back towards Javal. “Wait, why are you here to plunder the ooze’s treasure?”

Javal sits down moving his red coat to his sides, a large excited smile on his face, “Thank you two for your warm welcome. I appreciate it, especially with the danger that has been the eclipse jungle. I’ve been walking in what felt like the same area for the past thirty minutes with no luck at what I’m here for”.
Javal bows his head as Ulmiyda introduces herself and says in a jolly tone, “It's a pleasure to meet you Lady Ulmiyda Flameborn, and you Sir Cervayhn. Oh professor Lloyd also recruited you fellows on his strange kooky request that means you guys are adventurers correct. Lloyd asked me to help him out with another one of his scientific surveys after completing one already involving a bugaboo".
Javal quickly smells himself and says, “Oh that yes I have my own ship and travel across the Luna Sea all the time. What of these crab assassins? I fought a lobster folk mage with crab magic once but never fought against a crab assassin. What would that even be like? As for trusting me, I solemnly swear on my life that I shall not lift even an inch of my sword against you or your friend, as it would go against my code of honor. I’m a former pirate and current head of a security company by the way. I am not here to plunder the ooze fellow’s treasure, only here to help the good professor with his research”, the fellblood says in a cheery tone.

Ulmiyda watches the fellblood with a questioning gaze, only to recoil backwards at the mention of magical lobster folk. “They have magic now? Maybe that’s how they snuck into the capital so easily; they had mages mass teleport entire armies into the heart of the city! I had to fight one of their exalted swordscrab generals and barely won! It’s no surprise you haven’t heard of my great deed; the last thing the royal family wants is news of a Dark elf saving Sol City as the army stood idly by!”
After some idle humming and various other ponderous noises, the young girl extends a hand to the fellblood with a calm but serious expression. “Okay, I’ll trust you for now. This information regarding crab magic is truly invaluable for our ongoing conflict against the denizens of the sea.” Cervayhn releases an exhausted sigh as his young master’s unwarranted suspicions finally lessen as her inane paranoia is eased. While these talks of an invading sea army are extremely unproductive given the circumstance, the mention of a bugaboo drew his attention. Perhaps there is an opportunity for the young to further continue her studies under this Lloyd fellow. The tree line breaks as the wagon enters a small clearing. Cervayhn pulls back on the reins causing the frigid steed to slow to a trot. To his surprise, they aren’t the only ones here, as several horses are hitched to nearby trees. He maneuvers the vehicle around a collection of bushes, hoping to hide the extravagant wagon from ne'er do wells that happen to pass by. “This is our stop. According to the notes, the ooze has been spotted within walking distance of this clearing.” The older dark elf descends from the driver’s seat, offering a hand to his young master as he looks towards Javal. “From the look of things, we aren’t the only one after this creature. We might need to put your security skills to work after all.”

“Yes my friend from what I remember from fighting them, it was this lobster folk fellow who was disillusioned from the Arcane Academy. It was quite a sad story. If I do say so myself, I helped save them from themselves with the help of my good friend Cantio. The Lobster folk were very skilled with crab magic and were able to manipulate crabs to great effect making crab knights, and crab walls, and even succeeded in creating a giant crab dragon, truly a worthy opponent. As for you what? You fought a crab swords general that’s amazing and truly a shame it is not well recognized”, the fellblood remarked earnestly.
Javal cheerily accepts Ulmiyda’s hand and shakes it, “Great, I appreciate your trust and swear to help you battle against the crab army if they attempt to invade Sol City once again. As a victim of being buried alive in a crab tomb, I understand the dangers that they offer”.
Javal quickly places his hands on the wagon’s side and hops over it landing on the floor as he stands up he responds to Cervayhn, “It would seem so my friend hopefully these people are just some slime enthusiasts like Professor Lloyd but something tells me that is most likely improbable”.
He then looks around trying to hear any signs of fighting or an Ooze giving birth but alas everything seems deadly silent before after a couple minutes of walking a loud noise is heard far up ahead.

Ulmiyda’s expression brightens as Javal pledges his aid against the Luna Sea’s armies. She looks to her retainer with an overjoyed face as he helps her off the carriage. “Okay we can trust him! Javal’s going to help when the sea inevitably rises up against us.” Cervayhn rolls his eyes in response as he observes the horses hitched nearby. “That’s great. Judging by the equipment on the horses, we are looking at five people.” His eyes turn towards a small break in the jungle’s underbrush, taking the point as he steps forward. “We’d best get moving.”
The jungle leaves slide off of Ulmiyda’s boots as the group proceeds into the jungle’s thickets. A rainfall had recently passed through the area, and while it created an ideal environment for an ooze to make an appearance, it only served to annoy the young pyromaniac who could barely keep her footing. “Why did we have to come here now of all times? I'd rather fight a hydra than have this cold rain drip down on me.”
Cervayhn quickly hides his amused grin as he turns to face his young master and the fellblood. “According to Lloyd’s notes, these creatures are the most active in areas of heavy moisture. You would know that if you actually bothered reading the report I gave you. Now keep voice down before our unwanted company finds-” A loud scream carries across the jungle canopy, interrupting the older dark elf’s lecture. He glances in the direction of the sound before turning back to see Ulmiyda’s overjoyed face. He sighs as he pulls a knife out of his coat. “Stay behind me.”
The trio quickly proceed through the underbrush, only to arrive at a chaotic scene. A group of five, hunters by the look of things, had encountered their ooze. One of the hunters appeared to be crawling across ground, the smell of burning fabrics emanating from their rapidly melting pant leg. The several of the hunters look towards the trio, readying themselves for a fight while a fourth pulls the injured one to safety. “Looks like we have a fight on our hands.”

“Five people seems like more than easy to take down especially considering we have bested the forces of the sea before”, the fellblood says excitedly as he takes out his katana with his right hand from his waistband and flicks it upward causing the sheath to be thrown into the air before Javal caught it on his hands and tucked away in his coat pocket.
Javal follows behind Cervayhn as he leads the group deeper into the Eclipse Jungle’s grasp, he looks around at the scenery beside them.
“Woah this both looks and feels great”, he says as he opens his mouth to catch some of the water droplets on his tongue.
He then shifts his focus to the older gentlemen’s debriefing of the ooze’s habits and shyly says, “I think I dropped the report that Lloyd gave me while I was running through the jungle, it meant even still be around here somewhere”.
He then brightens up as he says, “Perhaps some of the animals here or the slime itself could read it and become smarter”, before shaking his head at the thought.
Javal’s head turns to the way of the loud noise and hurriedly begins running alongside the other two as they make it to the clearing where it appears that a party of poachers were having a hard time against ooze.
Javal raises his katana and his other hand in the air before saying, “Hello there fellows we come in peace all we ask for is that you stop hunting down the ooze fellow and let us look at it in peace for the sake of science”.
A female hunter scoffs at him and shouts, “Eh, hey you guys hear this twerp, think we’ll just hand the bounty and money over to him just cause he asked”.
The struggling group recoups themselves and yells back, “NOOOOOO”, before charging straight at the party, weapons drawn and ready for a fight.

Cervayhn is surprised by Javal’s attempt at diplomacy. For someone who so eagerly boasted about their martial prowess and who spouted bizarre ideas like animals and oozes suddenly becoming literate, this was an oddly rational decision. His surprise was short lived however, as the fellblood quickly threw caution to the wind at the first sign of resistance. The older dark elf reaches into his jacket as he adjusts his stance, carefully eyeing the poachers’ movements. The nearest hunter, a sun elf who seemed just as foreign as them, gives the two dark elves a suspicious eye, his attention turning to the high-quality fabrics of their garb. He looks back to his companions with a toothy grin, his eyes clearly filled with dubious intent. “Look what we got here, a couple of lost tourists! Let's help them find their way and relieve them of their coi-.” The man’s sentence is cut short as a knife enters his left bicep, digging its way nearly to the hilt [1]. As the man freezes in shock, Cervayhn holds multiple throwing knives in one hand, staring towards the sun elf with a cold, uncaring demeanor. “I suggest you turn back now. You’ll find that we are much more difficult prey than that ooze. If not, the next one will be going between your eyes.” While her retainer is occupied in one direction, Ulmiyda stares down another poacher from the opposite side of the ooze. A large water droplet impacts her head as she tries to maintain focus on the battle at hand, causing her to groan in frustration. “Bleh. I can’t work in these conditions!” The young girl withdraws a large scimitar from the scabbard upon her back. The blade shines brilliantly as the heated steel meets the moisture laden air. She holds the blade forward as the gem embedded in the sword’s hilt begins to glow [2]. A wave of energy spreads outward from the young girl’s position, instantly evaporating the lingering puddles and wilting the cumbersome weeds of the underbrush [3]. “Much better. Now if you kindly move out of the way…” Ulmiyda aims the blade towards the closest poacher, who is struggling to approach through the sudden increase in humidity, before a bolt of flame erupts from the blade’s tip [4]. The bolt impacts the man with a searing crackle, causing him to instantly catch aflame. In a panic, the man drops to the ground, rolling hastily as he attempts to extinguish himself, but the dry earth offers him little assistance. With the closest threat preoccupied, Ulmiyda turns to face her fellblood companion. “Javal, do you need any help?” [1] Throwing Knives - 1/5
[2]Agni (Scimitar) - Scalded enchantment - Your weapon has been forged by the strongest flames, and treated by Pyromancers. Upon being removed from its hilt, your weapon begins to glow red-hot, emitting an unbearable heat to anyone but the owner of the weapon. This weapon becomes as scorching as it first was when it was forged; it deals fire damage which instantly cauterizes the wounds of the target when used to slash, and leaves behind a severe burn— the pain of which is rumored to linger for months afterwards.
+ Meteor Charm - A tiny piece of a meteorite fashioned into a charm which can be attached to an item or a weapon. The item the charm is attached to will slowly crack, having lava flow underneath the surface of the item. For as long as the charm is attached the weapon will act as a spell casting focus for your spells that deal Fire damage or are Fire based. This allows you to cast fire spells through the weapon without needing a free hand.
[3] Sweltering Aura: An Elementalist would be able to push forth the heat in their own body outwards to affect the world around them. You can channel a wave of fire within your body, causing the area around you to increase in temperature. The area will increase by twenty degrees, getting so much hotter than it was before. Those in the area will find it hard to breathe, breaking a sweat with the smallest of actions. This heat will also kill minor plants, causing them to shrivel up and will evaporate small bodies of water like puddles or spells. This heat wave will remain for three posts and can only be used once per topic.
[4] Fire Bolt + Conflagration: Your spells that deal Fire damage now ignite the enemy, giving them a stack of Conflagration. They will remain ablaze for the next two posts, keeping the stack of conflagration until the end of its duration or until its triggered. If they are dealt fire damage again from any source while affected by this ability the fire will deal double damage, igniting the stack and burning even hotter than normal.

Javal smirks as he sees two of the poachers charge at him trying to quickly get the fellblood man out of the way, one a large half-orc armed with a large hammer and a human woman with a long spear.
The man charges at him trying to slam his hammer down on him but finds Javal much more slippery than he is as he dodges out of the way. The spear-wielder can catch him with her spear and drives it into his abdomen; he grits his teeth as he feels the cold metal break through his padding not yet entering his body, thankfully.
He holds his hand out using the rain that falls before as a source of water to create a small bubble (1) in his palm. He then throws it as hard as he can at the orc which splashes on his face before bouncing to the spear-wielding woman before finally bouncing on a foe nearby Ulmiyda.
He uses this as an opportunity to retaliate and sprints forth right at the half-orc raising his blade over his head and swinging it downwards and forth (2), cleaving his metal into the half-orc's chest before twisting his blade up causing a large cross shaped gash to appear and causing the man to stumble back in man as he uses his hammer to keep himself up.
He then hears Ulmiyda’s question and is about to say, “I’m quite alright friend Ulmiyda'', before turning around and hearing the spear woman scream in anger and charge at him.

Ulmiyda is dazzled as she watches Javal send his much larger adversary barrelling backwards. For someone who uses lame water-based magic he is oddly graceful rather than waterlogged and slow. Her words have unintended effect however, as they give one of the fellblood’s adversaries a chance to attack him while he is distracted. The young girl panics as she quickly turns her sword in the fellblood’s direction, firing another bolt in desperation. The bolt flies past Javal but is hampered by the moist environment, decreasing in power as it travels. Regardless, the bolt strikes true, impacting the spearwoman enough to break her charge. The girl’s distraction doesn’t go unpunished however as the human man she previously blasted had risen to his feet, his shoulders still clad in embers as charges towards the girl with his sword drawn. Ulmiyda doesn’t have time to react, only able to lift her arm upwards in place of her sword as she yelps in fright. The scream is interrupted by the clang of metal striking metal as the man’s sword recoils backwards, followed by sparks of flame [1]. The sound brings the young girl back to her senses and she slams her wrist together, burning away her gloves and revealing the flame-coated gauntlets underneath. She throws a jab toward the man’s stomach as fast as she can, transferring the flames onto him on impact [2]. The man chuckles at her attempt to fend him off, unaware of the flames racing to reach the lingering embers on his body. As he raises his sword once more, the flames reach their destination, causing the man to explode into a raging inferno [3]. He falls to the ground yet again, only this time the flames do not yield before his struggles. As his young master is assisting Javal, Cervayhn watches as the sun elf poacher removes the knife from his arm with a pained grimace. “You’ll pay for that; I’ll be taking more than just your coin now.” The dark elf is undisturbed by the man’s threat as he maintains his cold expression. “This your last chance, turn back now and-” His words are interrupted by his master’s sudden yelp and in an instant his eyes sharpen, his hand moving blisteringly fast as another knife leaves his fingers, hitting its promised destination between the sun elf’s eyes [4]. He readies another as he turns to face Ulmiyda, only to see her attacker being consumed by flames. He breathes a sigh of relief as he spots two of the remaining combatants engaging Javal, while the fifth is just now rising to their feet. The girl was safe, at least for the moment. He begins to step forward when he notices some movement from the jungle’s underbrush. In the chaos, he had nearly forgotten why they were here and with this brief respite, he looked towards the ooze’s last known position, only to find a peculiar sight.
[1]Spit Fire Gauntlets - hit preventions [1/3]
[2]Spit Fire Gauntlets - A pair of lightweight gauntlets that seem normal on the outside. Made of light metal, the gauntlets cover the hands and forearms and have designs of flames etched into them. These gauntlets count as normal gauntlets from the armor shop and have the same properties. However the owner can slap the gauntlets together to cause flames to spread forth from the palms and coat the gauntlets in fire. This turns any offensive strikes with the gloves into fire damage. [3] Triggered - Conflagration: Your spells that deal Fire damage now ignite the enemy, giving them a stack of Conflagration. They will remain ablaze for the next two posts, keeping the stack of conflagration until the end of its duration or until its triggered. If they are dealt fire damage again from any source while affected by this ability the fire will deal double damage, igniting the stack and burning even hotter than normal. [4] Throwing Knives - 3/5

The spearwoman grunts as she’s stopped in her tracks almost thrown to the floor after being hit by a weakened bolt she shrieks in pain and shock before keeping herself standing although taking a minute to regain her focus. She and her orc partner both are now standing up and ready for round two against the fellblood as he stands tall sword raised towards them while he beckons them towards him, “Come at me fools and meet my metal if you dare”.
They roar in anger as they rear towards him the orc lifting his hammer above him and slamming it where Javal stood as the spearwoman threw her weapon straight into his head.
He smirks before melting into a puddle of water (1) under where he stood causing the hammer smash and lance throw to just slip through him.
He quickly reforms back into his original form and retaliates as the orc is momentarily caught off guard. He whirls his blade in the air charging its rhythmic movements as he swings it back and forth gathering momentum (2). He swings his sword right into the fellow’s chest using all his strength causing the orc fellow to let out a grunt before dropping to the floor in pain.
The spear woman now seeing her weapon away from her and her associate beaten up quickly turns around and sprints. She pushes Cervayhn as she runs and heads straight towards where the ooze is.

With her adversary having faced the consequences of trying her, Ulmiyda turns her attention back to Javal and the two foes that continue to pester him. The young girl’s eyes widen as she turns just in time to see the fellblood’s body suddenly dissipate into liquid form, allowing his opponents’ weapons to pass through him. Wow… that’s so cool, if only it wasn’t water; if it was fire those poachers would have missed AND they would be ablaze. As Javals strikes the orc with some flowing slashes, Ulmiyda spies an odd movement through the flowing movement of the fellblood’s blade. The fifth member of the poacher crew, a thin dark elf man with a fearful expression, had recovered from the ooze’s attack and was watching his companions’ battle. The man locks eyes with the young dark elf for a brief moment before glancing at the smoldering ash pile that was his former ally. Rather than picking a fight, the man turns and begins to flee deeper into the jungle. The act surprises Ulmiyda, her hand quickly darts into her satchel, grabbing a glass orb filled with a dark powder [1]. She throws the orb as hard as she can, quickly firing a bolt of flame [2] behind it. The orb quickly passes the fleeing man, reaching the trees ahead of him before the fire bolt catches it. The explosion stops the man in his tracks, his arm moving to shield his eyes from the light. The boom of the reaction is quickly replaced by the snapping of weakening wood as a damaged tree collapses and blocks the poacher's path. Meanwhile, Cervayhn is caught by surprise as the spearwoman pushes him aside and runs into the underbrush. Fool, what does she even expect to do with- The older dark elf’s thought is cut off as the woman’s voice rings outs from behind the foliage. “I’ve got it! It looks pretty weak so all we need to do is AHHH-” A harrowing cry rings out from the woman prompting Cervayhn to push his way through the grass, only to reach a horrifying sight.
The woman is crawling along the ground with an ooze slowly moving away from her, while another ooze is atop her, burning its way through her armor.
The dreary dark elf watches the sight with an ambivalent gaze as he rubs the back of his neck with one hand. “Yep, that’s what I thought...” [1]Explosive Ornaments

Javal glances at the man whom Ulmiyda quickly dispatches with her explosives and fire magic, truly impressed with her skill. Such firepower and good magical control, heck at her age he was barely able to shape water into a small dagger to fight during the high seas. He glanced over at Certain thinking how good he must be at combat if he was the one tasked with guarding over and mentoring the dark elf girl.
“Hm, maybe I can talk to him later about learning from him, no matter who the person is, maybe they always have a lesson to offer”, he thought.
He shakes his head from his internal ramblings and jogs over to the older dark elf man as he moves the brush in front of him to see the horrifying sight in front of him.
“NO”, he whispers out as he sees the woman in pain, he is not going to let her die for her foolish actions. Although these goons sought to hurt the ooze there wasn’t a point for them to die like this.
He waves his hand gathering the water (1) in the area to form into a thin water arm pulling her away carefully to not startle the ooze from on top of her.
He then grabs her hand and quickly carries her away leaving the oozes to their devices as he lays her down and begins healing the messed up goons (2).

He then stands up and faces Ulmiyda and Curvy, “Well I think our work here is done, we’ve collected more than enough information for Lloyd. It was a pleasure to work with you fellows and I hope to work again with you guys in the future”, he then bows towards them before turning the other way and disappearing into the forest onto another adventure.
