120 Unaffiliated Red Fever (1) Recovering 6 HP He stood in the wake of chaos, a satiated smile plastered on his face. Jin stared at the sky through a haze that obscured it, like some ancient Astronomer yearning to see the stars behind the clouds. Surrounded by the visceral remains of...

Then do what you have to do, Zelrius. I will hold the line.

Can't we, though? If we turn back to help them now, the enemy may press the advantage and more of us could die. Though if you're dead set on helping them, I won't stop you. If nothing else, it would be... ...interesting.

They should have taken the time to check the cart and horse more thoroughly. We don't have the luxury now. The enemy is already on top of us. They knew the risks. @Zelrius

It seemed that this wraith had some manner of agreement with people outside of the garden but if that was true, it was decidedly not the same people who had hired Jin to, for lack of a better description, "sneak in and snoop around." After a cursory glance around, Jin was made aware of just how...

120 Unaffiliated -15 HP from Combat Civilization was well behind them by the time he stirred. He remained unaware of the danger at first, but the fear that crept like a murderer in the night through the myriad Players and the representatives of the guild roused his interests such that his...

There was a moment of prolonged silence as the most vocal of their group labored at fat fingering his keyboard before Jin realized what was actually going on. He bit back the overwhelming urge to roll his eyes. Their whole entourage had apparently succumbed to the urge to draw attention to...

"A duchess, you say?" he repeated the new information, savoring it. A member of the nobility with that kind of information begged the question, were Landers aware of the threat, or perhaps, did Players have the ability to attain rank and renown? "How interesting..." Jin made no attempt to hide...

The truth behind Terrasphere was such an abstract, fascinating concept. Those who followed the rumors swore in conflict with one another, with one side absolutely certain that the tales of dead Players were gravely exaggerated by government officials. The other side, a vocal majority...

120 Non-Affiliated Word spread like wildfire through Faldaren and Astorea alike. The guilds called on Travelers to assist with an expedition; but to his knowledge, a joint expedition like this was rare, and for them to call on Travelers who were not affiliated with any guild was virtually...

The sterilized tang of ozone washed across his nostrils. Heat from the myriad electronics that thrummed with life despite their ramshackle state made the air stale, dry, metallic. If he strained, the taste almost mirrored that of blood, but an aficionado with discerning tastes could divine the...

He had to agree to disagree on the point of bandits. They made for poor sport once you killed enough of them. However, @Regan was spot on in her assessment of the bastard- he had no interest in helping the people of the village, and he was not the willing type. Instead of a verbal response, the...

It was curious the way that this specter worked his way through plantlife like it was nothing. His attention remained visibly split all the while, and though he did not immediately regard Jin, the Bloodsworn felt his skin crawl unbidden as an unseen gaze settled on him. With no sudden movements...

"A garden left to grow unchecked," he mused idly as he checked the map again to verify his location and the distance to his destination. "Strange request, but I've heard stranger." Jin moved in strange circles and met stranger people on his path to the Underworld. Astorea was a nation...

Once more the chat came to life, only this time, he was still on the way out of Faldaren when it happened. The Bloodsworn had made his way from Honeyhome and taken the winding path through Eastern Brisshal west, toward Astorea before the alert caught his attention. He lifted his palm up slowly...

The only rule that truly matters is survival of the fittest. Even an idiot knows that. The wisest words you've spoken yet, woman. Jin listened to her cry out to the heavens in protest of the rules and of society, and at her proclamation of the strong eating the weak, he could not help but...

There was a malign elegance in the way she moved. Most worthy of note, the intoxicating slip of an edge across flesh. His eyes came to life at the display of blood magic as she stretched out her vitae and honed it into a blade. His face betrayed nothing of the visceral appreciation he felt at...

He watched her harass the man with a neutral gaze, wondering if all shopkeeps in this world were quite so docile. If they were, theft or intimidation were not off the table for cutting back on expense. It was something he could experiment with in the future, but for now, the woman barked at him...

The man seemed despondent trying to keep abreast of their demands. Jin smiled and watched the shopkeep have a mild panic attack when the Beastwoman indicated the weapon at his side, and rightly so. Such things were not generally found in their current region. A curiosity, a foreign weapon-...

There was something beautiful about anger, volatility, the scathing heat of an intense emotion that threatened to burn him as effigy that brought him to life. People just did not react like this in the real world. This array of color was only visible when humanity cast aside the pall of societal...
