Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap

The people directly around the girl gave a shriek and scattered, crying aloud "The anders are here to kill us all!" As the fearful citizens scattered, a group of street toughs advanced towards Ratna with determined purpose. They were a motley assortment, probably fifteen strong, and armed with anything they could find. Pipes, wooden planks, knives, crowbars, wrenches... the whole shebang. One of the men stepped forward, obviously the leader, and spoke. "Girl, yew dawn't git outta here thar's gunna be some trubble. Ah don't know where's yew got that body, but we ain't takin kindly ta yews mucking with our home. If yew dawn't git lost real quick like, yew'll be in for a world'a hurting... Then we'll call EIRAL on yew. Threatening citizens of the cit with yer witchcraft."

"well , now the people want to burn me at the stake , that's more like it~" she said mocking the gang who just formed , if this didn't attract attention , the people screaming would, she quickly casts Necromancy I on the skelly bringing it to life , which as it starts to get up she kicks it towards the gang and then starts to make a run for it down an alleyway knowing the skelly lasts for 45 seconds and it was uncontrollable that would buy her time to put space between her and the gang which would be enough to lose them.
this was getting her no where closer to her goal , this magic guild was hard to find that she was at this moment in time considering if she would have to start one herself , there had to be some magical group that must had seen that , if not then why the hell are they not appearing and let her know that they know she magic now and all the stuff she wanted to hear. not the screams of people because of one of her skellys.
(ok she is not getting anywhere easy at all, except running away from an angry mob, and yes this how she works , she is smart but logic fails her. all beginner witches problems )

"She's one'a them!" Part of the mob turned and ran while the leader rallied his followers. "Smash it then find her! We ain't gunna let no Ander go 'round makin' trubble fer us hard working' folks." He swung his wrench at the advancing skeleton and splintered the arms reaching for him. Metal beats bone. The rest of the mob swarmed the lone skeleton and smashed it into unrecognizable pieces. Afterwards, the mob quickly spread throughout the district looking for the woman. They seemed to avoid the woods, though.

from a close by hiding spot she noticed they where searching for her , she had to move soon or risk being found, she noticed that they did not like going to the forest, it was a very smart move , again with the monsters there , so Ratna came to a small conclusion , she would have to go in and then hopefully if she didnt get lost, cycle around back to lodan before night hit. again she felt like this was a stupid idea , running into the forest where the monsters where without any weapons as suicide but what other choose did she have , and with that swallowing her pride she ran into the forest as far as she could hopefully that she didn't get caught at night.

The town was busy tonight... Danny watched from his shadowed perch in the trees, roughly twenty yards away from where he expected individuals seeking him to show up. He was hidden in such a way that the leaves and foliage blocked the view to him while still allowing him to see into the small clearing. He turned his attention away from the city and back to the clearing. Someone would talk about what happened there anyways. The hour for recruitment was almost up. One prospective member wasn't bad work though. In fact, it was fantastic, all things considered. The boy hunkered down to wait, when he spotted someone making their way into the forest like a blind and bumbling bear. Stupid... Danny slipped down the tree like oil and practically flowed across the forest floor like smoke, making not a sound as he went. He drew up short, just out of sight, and spoke in his most intimidating voice. "Feet shoulder width apart, hands out, palms up. Close yer eyes, or yeh'll get turned inta zombie chow."

Ratna made it far into the wood , though she though it be plane sailing to get back in when suddenly someone ordered her to put her hands up with parms open and close her eyes and legs apart , which to her would be a normal sataday night if it was sataday but it was not. *she did what she was told since there were no skellys around to make come alive and if was them thugs the most would be an unpleasant night at best. "ok am doing it , if this about the skelly back in town , it was to get answers , why is it so hard to find out where the Magic guild is , it makes no scene why it has to be so much as a myth to the point where my Mother was once part of and she said it was real but its not on map she gave me, ok you got me what are you gonna do to me~?" she said as all her pride went down the toilet in a second as she planned how to get out of this problem . most of the answers pointed to trying talk her way out , a few of them was seduction which would need a bed and some wine. one of them was if possible was finding a skelly out here but in the forest she knew shadow monsters ate everything of people so that was out the question. so she tried to talk her way out if possible.

Danny quickly frisked the girl, covering every inch of the girl's body in his hunt for weapons. Finding none, he kept his sword at otherr ready and spoke. "The 'magic guild' yer talkin' 'bout don'' exist no more. 'asn't since the civil war. If yer lookin' for the Anders tha' took down them labs'n ya found me. Why're ya lookin' fer us? An' be warned, if ya do ge' in, we're gonna 'ave a very serious talk 'bout wha' 'appened in the town."

Ratna was filed down with at lest made it better as the person who she did know , she could no see the person face since it was too covered as they spoke in a very very poor language as she tried to put them together " pardon? i didn't understand half of that , to answer the questions you ask i did understand , 1st my mother used to be apart of the guild which am following her footsteps to become as great, I am a Witch and before you ask , them people in the village to be honest as i asked where trying to kill me by telling me to do a number of things, so i did get a skelly to prove a point, i mean what happened to equality ,running in to this forest was stupid at best . " she said as she pulled out her book and opened it as it recorded the new information into it pages as she flicked to her mothers notes "ok so i have to do a trial before i join correct?, look ill take what words of wisdom you guys are gonna give me becomes the last few places are nicer about magic but this place, if that war did that much damage to peoples outlooks?" she said , used to being around magical people.

Danny kept the sword level with the woman and narrowed his eyes behind his goggles. "First off, tha' ain' no village. Tha's Lodan, city 'a gears an' center'a the world fer modern Anders. Second, if the folk in town 'ad wanted ta kill ya, we wouldn' be 'avin' this conversation. Thirdly, there ain' no magic guild. Fourth, there ain' no such thing as equality for Anders in the world. Fifthly, if ya think I'm jus' gonna letcha waltz in 'ere an' jeopardize my crew, yer mistakin'. I already think it'sa bad idea lettin' ya through, knowin' ya summoned a boney ta try an' scare answers outta people. Tha' ain' gonna 'elp the cause none. Las'ly, don' think fer a second I won' leave ya in the woods fer the beasts if I feel like yer gonna be a danger ta us. Gottit? If so, go tha' way till ya find a massive buildin'. If ya don' see it, ya ain' never gonna be one'a us." Danny shifted back into the dark to let the girl find her way to the house. Meeting hour was over today. He'd be back tomorrow, same time, same place.

for the 1st time Ratna felt that who ever that person was something , worst of all that was that the words he/she said was making it sound that magic was just a tool that was in the same speck as a sword, with that she had to choose , keep going which could be a trap and she could end up monster chow or lost forever , head back and face the mobs which if she made it past them could get to the in and try again when there was sun light so she could not get lost, this was not the best time of her life , 2ed followed by the past 6 months just to make her book .
she looked down and saw a stick on the ground and picked up, "when in problema , let fate choose" she throw the stick up into the air. spinning and waited for it to land , an old thing her mother used to do to help her choose her path, it never let her mother down before and should help her. the stick landed in the direction of the way pointed to go , and so she started to walk , into what ever could be a trap or the answer she seeks.
(i have a feeling that something gonna happen and there gonna be a long Rp )

Hearing footsteps, Lasair fell silent. His flint hand was next to him, having been rearranging the leaves, but now it grew stiff as he listened intently, and ever so slowly he moved his fingers into snapping position. As he continued to listen, it seemed as though the footsteps were confused, not sure which way they should be heading. They could never belong to the recruitment person. Wanting to get whatever meeting that was in store over with, Lasair called into the darkness, but still kept his left hand among the leaves next to him. “Hey, whoever’s out there, show yourself,” he asked calmly, but still loudly.

as she went on her way , she heard a voice , the looked around and followed the voice , making not of where was was before on the path. coming to a small area she spotted a man , and a handsome one at that, and a keeper too. "hay there! dont worry am unarmed, you would not know where the building is in this forest ?" she asked as she approached him, hoping to at lest get something out of this mess , "if not then that's ok, but you and me need to get more antiquated with a glass of wine and a room later~" she said suggestively a she looked him up and down.
(yes she is trying to hit on him and they just meet , that's Ratna )

Lasair raised an eyebrow at her, wondering if she were blind or just plain stupid. The building was right behind him, but he wasn’t going to tell her that. Instead, he stood up and ran a hand through his hair, switching to his flirty half instead of dwelling on what she did or didn’t see. “Considering the fact we’re meeting each other in the middle of the forest, I don’t think making arrangements is the best idea at this time. Perhaps tomorrow, whilst in the middle of town, where someone can hear if trouble arises,” he flashed a sinister grin, at her before leaning back against the wall of the building. “As for a building, I have no idea what you’re talking about,” he said with the same smile.

Danny walked right into sight, not bothering with any of his stealth from before. "Righ', listen up. Been talkin' wit the big boss an' we're goin' on a lil field trip. On yer feet, an' follow me." Danny spoke in a no nonsense manner and immediately turned around and starting walking when he finished talking. If they were serious about wanting to join, they'd follow. If not, he didn't need them anyways.
Post by Lasair Landevier Lupen on Oct 28, 2014 20:52:11 GMT
Ignoring the new face, Lasair jumped ahead and started walking directly behind the mysterious person. He was serious about joining now, and wouldn’t turn back for anything. Especially not for a pretty girl. Besides, why chase a mouse that doesn't bother to run? Lasair would have much more fun getting to know the scarf-wearer than the silver-haired girl.
