Factions: Itharian Empire: "good faction". They worship the god of goodness Itharion. They are ruled by King Horacio in the Capital City of Itharia. The Empire controls the Southern Part of the world and a small section of the North.
The Vampre Empire: -"an evil faction but not the true evil of the world"- They worship Sorer the god of "evil". They are ruled by Count Beringer the vampire king and the human representative King Koran in the Capital city or Vanguardia and 7 Devil Hill. They control the northern section of the world.
The Cult of the Devourer- "the true evil faction" A small faction but a very powerful one. They hide in secret in the Shadowlands trying to open a portal to allow the Devourer and his followers back into the dimensinal plane of our worlds and the world of the gods. They lie in the wastelands betwen the two Empires and in the Shadowlands a section of the world covered in an enchanted mist. The Devourer is the one who gave Sorer his powers and was betrayed by him.
*Note* We will begin Neutral we may chose are alliegence later as well I have a plan for that but first we must do one thing.
"my son today I am going to explain something very important to you" said a father to his son. "what is it dad"asked the boy. "where magic come from" said the father. "you see all magic comes from the power of the World Stone which was placed on this Earth by Itharion to help his followers but a terrible evil tainted the stone to also let out shadow magic instead of the holy and elemental magic" said the father. "so where is the stone Dad" asked the son. "don't interupt I am not finished yet" said the father who continued on with the story. "who ever comes in contact with the stone will gain a great deal of power including those who do not come from the clans that learned magic from the Itharion soon a mortal named Soror found the stone and gained the powers of a god. So a terrible war began..now this was the time when gods roamed the land. Itharion saw what happened to the lands so he banished himself and Soror into the homeland of Itharion to continue their battle and banished the evil from the world of men and gods" said the father. "but what about the stone"asked the son. "well..that is a mystery as only Soror and Itharion know where that is" said the father.

(Ooc We all will begin in an Inn and everyone is an Adventurer..all of us have been invited here by a mysterious person) Lakan walked down the streets of Itharia looking at the map that was in the letter he recieved offering him the Adventure of a Lifetime. "this is the place" murmed Lakan as he walked into The Rising Dragon Tavern. As he entered he noticed an elf was in the tavern..and a nice looking one too. He found a table and sat down hopefully who ever sent him this letter was here. *** "two down (X) amount to go" thought the Mysterious Old Man as he noticed Lakan walk in. He sat at a table near the window. He took a sip of his beer. (Ooc He will adress each one of us indivualy once everyone gets a chance who wants to join..incase anyone gets left behind I have a plan for that as well )

"Well then," Kall said from outside the tavern. "Not too shabby," "I've seen holes more fancier than this place," Leall remarked. "I'd be careful, you wouldn't want any of the regulars hearing you," Kall said pushing the door open. "I'm sure they would only agree with me," Leall laughed, stepping inside. Kall followed and approached the bar. "Drink?" Kall asked. "Out of these glasses?" Leall laughed, sitting down and resting his feet up on the table.

"Not the best part of town..." Artani muttered to herself, examining the map again. "Oh well," she sighed uncertainly, continuing on, keeping her hand close to her sword. She found the inn and stepped inside quietly. Then she took a seat at an empty table in a corner.

Lakan sniffed the air as an two particular scents stood out. He sniffed again. "got it..one is a Moon Elf..female and the other is a werewolf..female" said Lakan as he grinned and his teeth showed. *** Soren walked down the street to the inn. She pulled her robe up so her daggers were concealed..she didn't want any humans messing with her. She walked in and took a seat on a bar stool. *** "almost all of them are here" said the man to himself. "time to get started" said the man as he approached the female werewolf. "you are to meet me outside the main gate..its not safe to talk here..make sure you aren't followed" said the man and walked to his next subject. He approached the male werewolf as he decided due to the sense of smell in here he probaly wasn't enjoying it here due to well humans tend to smell terrible to werewolves even if he was half breed. "meet me outside the main gate..as it is not safe to talk here said the man as he glanced around..make sure you are not followed" "umm..ok" said Lakan as got up and exited the Inn. "hmm now for the brothers" thought the man to himself. He pulled out a pair of letters from his cloak and then walked to their table and put them on it. "do exactly what they say" whipered the mysterious man. "Theres the money I owe you to" said the old man as he winked (Ooc He has to change his methods in order to not seen suspious I mean walking up to people and having them walk out after you talk to them seems a bit odd and the letters say exactly what the man said to the others)

Kall looked from the bar the same time Leall looked up from the table. Kall nodded and quickly moved to exit the tavern. Leall scooped up the letters and followed Kall outside. "What are they?" Kall asked. "I think they're instructions," Leall said, opening the envelopes and pulling out a sheet of paper. "Well?" Kall asked. "Main gate," Leall replied.
As the two brothers ran up the street, another adventurer entered the tavern. Wearing a hooded coat and a pair of heavy boots, he lingered over to the dark cornor and waited.

Artani left as quietly as she came, following the dirrections the old man had given. She reached the gate and waited nervously nearby. This was all very strange, but interesting nonetheless.

"look theres one" said a hood figure sitting on the roof top. "you sure its one of them this time last time you had us attack an innocent..the king will have our head if you are wrong" said another hooded figure. "don't worry I think he I one of them besides this thing will only feel like a sting to a human but if we get one of those wolves then they will phase" said the man as he fired a crossbow bolt with a cresent tip at Lakan. (Ooc Werewolves are mostly enslaved by the Vampires and so technically are working for the Vampre Empire..however not all tribes of werewolves live in the north a few of them do live in the South or had their ancestors escape the Vampires). Lakan howled as the bolt struck him and he phased into a werewolf. "oh crap" thought Lakan as he darted through the streets. "after him" said a hooded figure who switched his ammunition with wolfs bane tipped bolts. *** The Mysteryious Man watched from the scrying pool he made in his glass beer. "curses" muttered the man. "well I better save him" asid the man as he whispered a spell.
*** Suddenly without warning a block of ice formed over the hooded figures and they were frozen. "nows my chance" said Lakan as he darted out of his cover and fled to the main gate.
(Ooc Danny I will get to our charcters tomorow incase somebody else wishes to join and be warry those men are still out there hunting for trouble)

"Hey," Kall whispered. Leall turned away from the plant he was viewing and looked up at Kall who was sitting on a fence, he gestured his head towards a woman. Leall took a quick peek and quickly looked back to the plant. Kall frowned and leaped off the fence. "What do you think?" he asked quietly. "She's way out of your league," Leall smirked. "Look past that, brother," Kall sighed. Leall turned, looked again and spun back to the plant. "I think she looks sick, look, I don't know, go back to your fence," Leall said. "I don't think she's sick, I'm starting to think this wasn't a good idea," Kall said, returning to the fence. "You worry too much," Leall sighed.

Artani looked around for anything unusual. Someone she was supposed to meet, or some sort of sign telling her what to do next. She recognized two young men from the tavern, and remembered what the old man had said about the possibility of being followed. They didn't look or smell suspicious, but good spies rarely did. She approached them and drew her sword when she was close enough not to draw too much attention. She didn't raise it, but held it ready incase they attacked. "Who are you?" she growled quietly, "What is your business here?"

As Lakan approached the gate he noticed there were already people out there. "crap" what do I do" thought Lakan as he remembered the old mans words but technically he only said don't be followed..unless this was another trap. "looks like I am going to have to make sure its not a trap by any means nessacary" said Lakan as he began focusing all of energy into the art of phasing. Only elder werewolves have mastered the skill of phasing but he would have to break the notion. He then focused on the image of a half moon and exhasted manged to phase into a werewolf. "grr looks like I won't be able to fight to long so I will have to try to scare them away" thought Lakan as he climbed to the stairs to the top of the gate and let out a howl as loud as he could. Luckily the gate was near the forest so he had a chance that it would be mistake for a) a wolf in the woods or b) a werewolf in the woods.

Kall leaped off the fence and grasped the handle of his sword on his back. Leall spun around in surprise and drew his. "Brother, be calm," Kall said. Suddenly, the werewolf above let out its horrifying cry. Kall immediately drew his two handed sword and moved in front of the woman. Leall stood up in shock and looked around in panic. "Was that a wolf?" "Couldn't have been, but it was close, we should get out of here," Kall replied. "There's three of us, we can take him," Leall said. "What of the woman?" Kall asked. "She looks like the can take care of herself," Leall said, still moving around in a panic

Artani looked around, confused for a moment. Then tried to give a call in reply, a little akward with a human voice, hoping whoever it was would understand that she wouldn't attack.

Lakan grinned as he saw the humans trying to find the source of his howl. He thought for a secound about the woman who did sigal that she would not harm him thankfully he had the hearing that he did. He felt his body begining to unphase. "damn it" said Lakan as he phased back into a human. "well I better join them..plus there would be no way they would ever suspect him to be the werewolf. He climbed down the stairs of the gate house and had the guard raise the gate for him. He kept his sword on his back to intend no harm as well he decited to spare the humans..he didn't know why but he was sparing them as he recognised the woman from the tavern so surely this was not a trap...he hoped. He decided to test his luck and ask "did any of you happen to be sent here by a fellow.. in the The Rising Dragon Inn". Even if they didn't know he could always claim that he was just wondering and he merely asked him to meet his friend at the main gate so that he would be payed for some faor he did. *** (Ooc I am bringing the other two to the gate but as I said I have a 2 ways for late comers to join up one is a very short term thing the other is a long term thing which I will explain if you wish to bring another one in..actually I thought of a 3rd quicker way for my secound way)
The bartender gave a drink to the moon elf and the hooded dude. "curtosiey of that gentleman over there and he told me to give you these..as he just left after that" said the bartender. "he uh mentioned something about meeting him at the main gate and something about make sure you aren't followd as there are dangerous people on the streets" said the bartender to the elf and later to the hooded fellow. *** The Old Man walked down the street into a general store and he bought himself several days rations for several people. "keep the change and take a nice tip...as long as I was never here" said the Old Man as he stuffed the food into a large sack. "oh sure you got it" said the man as he collected the various gold, silver and bronze coins. "if you need anything else you know where to stop" said the shop keeper as the old man exited.
*** Soren exited the tavern and darted out the tavern using her agility to menever through the crowd and to get to the gate quickly. She paused outside the gate sensing two evil creatures yet one had a distinct aura of good and the other had an aura that was netural but full of anger and hate. She drew her unicorn horn bow and drew her wolfsbane tipped arrow as she regonised the creatures were Lycans.

Kall turned and raised his sword at the woman after she made a similar call. "Lycan!" Leall yelled, stepping behind her. "She may mean us no harm," Kall said nervously. "Of course it does!" Leall responded. Then, the gate opened and another person arrived. Kall took a few steps away from the woman to greet and warn the new comer, when he then indicated he was here for the same reason he and his brother were, maybe the Lycan was here for that reason as well. "The Adventure of a lifetime?" he asked, lowering his sword, Leall did the same shortly after. "I'm Kall, this is my brother, Leall,"
***
After receiving the Barman's instructions, Gabriel collected his spear and left the Tavern. He walked down the road and approached the main gate. Four others were there, two men and and two Lycans, a fifth, an Elf, was slightly ahead of him.
