  1. <font color='#FDD017'>OOC:
    Eryk Dasi
    Male
    27 00
    Assassin
    Poisons

    This is m first post as Eryk. He's waiting for someone, or something, to happen. I'm currently devloping his character, so feel free to do whatever. He feels nothing though (emotionally).

    Quarter: Tria (Summer)
    Day: 27
    Year: 81377 (3)

    There. Something moved. In the shadows! Or was it merely an illusion?

    Eryk Masi, was waiting.
    Hidden in the shadows by his black coat, his tail-flame suppressed, his red eyes faintly glowing, waiting for someone, or something.

    What, he did not know. So he watched, and waited</font>
     
  2. <font color='#FFFFFF'>OOC: Same here - this is my first post as Tevy.

    Tevy Alida
    Female
    17 00
    Assassin
    Acrobatics

    BIC: She ran swiftly down the ally way.  Robbery wasn't her best skill - she wanted to get as far away from the knife veder as possible.  She leapt over boxes, garbage, and crates with ease.  Suddenly she skid to a halt.  In front of her was another 'dragon.  A few words she shouldn't know at her age escaped her mouth.  The other 'dragon seemed to be waiting for something...but what?  Tevy pondered this question as she waited for him to notice her.</font>
     
  3. <font color='#FDD017'>OOC: For speech For telepathy and for thoughts

    IC: The black 'dragon noticed the lavender female running through the streets, obviously on the run. He looked on, still watching and waiting.
    There.
    She had noticed him.
    His wait was over.
    "I am Eryk, an assassin for hire. Who are you? "
    He said in his unnervingly calm, unemotional voice.
    He ignited his blood-red tail flame, no longer needing to hide. He stretched out hi=s leathery wings, and watched, expectantly waiting for an answer.</font>
     
  4. <font color='#FFFFFF'>"I am Tevy.  Killing is my trade as well.  I'm afraid I can't stay long.  As you can probably see, I'm in a bit of a hurry...please excuse me."

    She smiled slightly at Eryk.  Another assassinn for hire...the street seems littered with them lately.  Striding forward she circled the black 'dragon to continue on her way.</font>
     
  5. <font color='#FDD017'>The black 'dragon watched her push past him. He was sure she would lead him to what he was looking for, What ever I'm looking for is... He thought. He followed her, once again, extinguishing his tail flame, and blending in with the shadows.</font>
     
  6. <font color='#FFFFFF'>Tevy walked down the street, no real destination in mind.  Though Eryk was stelthy, and obviously knew what he was doing, she was well aware of his progress behind her.  After about a block's worth of walking she stopped and turned around.

    "Alright Eryk, give it up.  I'll admit, you're good at what you do though.  Now, your following me because...?"

    She let her question hang in air as she awaited his answer.</font>
     
  7. <font color='#FDD017'>After he had followed for a while, the female, Tevy turned around, and stared him straight in the eyes. "Alright Eryk, give it up.  I'll admit, you're good at what you do though.  Now, your following me because...?"

    Hmm... she's good. How did she know?
    He stepped out of the shadows, lighting his tail-flame.
    "I'm following you because i'm you will lead me to what i'm searching for. What it is, I do not know, but you will lead me there. Now. Where are you going?
    He said, in his calm, almost bored voice, his red eyes boring into hers.</font>
     
  8. <font color='#FF0000'>She invoulentarly shuddered.  His eyes somehow reminded her of her own...they seemed to see right through you.  Tevy stood a little higher and puffed her chest out a bit more.

    "To tell you the truth, I have no clue where I'm headed.  I'm just going.  Something interesting will turn up sometime."

    She paused and considered what he had said.

    "How is it that I'm 'leading' you anywhere?  We just met a moment ago!  I mean, I guess I don't mind being followed by some strange assassin.  I think it would be better if we just went anlong together though, instead of you acting as a shadow I don't need."

    Tevy took a breath and awaited Eryk's reply.  She was surprised with herself - normally she didn't talk this much.</font>
     
  9. <font color='#FDD017'>He could see her uncomfort in her eyes. She did not want him to follow. He did not care.

    "Fine then. We'll go together."

    He stretched his wings, flapped them, and flew into the air, still staring at her.

    "I'll fly.

    It wasn't a question, it was a blunt statement. Eryk seldom travelled and traversed with other 'dragons, usually keeping to himslef, unless on business.
    He flew around for a bit, to stretch his wings, waiting for her to move on.</font>
     
  10. <font color='#FFFF00'>ooc: Do you mind of I join into this thread with you all?

    bic: Upon hearing the sound of the conversing dragons in the alleyway, a small dragon about the size of a pitbull wonders across the building top to where they reside. Looks down on them with ivory white eyes and licks her lips a bit. Who might these two be? They look so much like assassins but how could I be sure. The small yellowish-brown dragon ponded as she continued to watch them then walks to where the alley corners into the streets. Jumps off the building and lands gracefully on the wet ground without the slightest noise at all. Leans back against the wall and turns her head about the corner continuing her spying.</font>
     
  11. <font color='#FF0000'>OOC: Welcome to the post [​IMG]


    BIC: "You'll fly?  Fine with me!"

    Now she was getting a tad annoyed with this strange 'dragon.  She strode forward again, without looking up to find her new shadow.  "I'll fly." He says. She quietly snorted.  Not like I care!  I wonder what he wants.  I have no clue were I'm going and yet he's supposed to follow me.  Wait...he's supposed to follow me.  Was he hired?  I'll have to watch my back.

    While all this was going through Tevy's head a small 'drangon appeared on the ground, whatching her.  Tevy didn't notice...perhaps she should have.</font>
     
  12. <font color='#FDD017'>OOC: Argh! My internet dropped out as is attepmted to post, and I lost it!  [​IMG]
    Welcome the the thread  [​IMG]

    IC: She probably thought he'd been sent to kill her. Let her think that. She's merely the guide. He lazily flapped around, observing. Just the usuals, Con Artists, assassins, thieves, spies. I wonder what 'fate' is sending me. Probably just another job. From the Graders, wanting me to kill off one of the oldies that they're so scared of. Who would the Graders' send? He wondered. He looked around, and spotted the yellow- brown 'dragon, casually watching their every move. Eryk casually spun around, and silently dived behind the spy. He laid one paw, claws out, on the spy's shoulder.
    "Who are you, and why are you watching us?"
    He said, his voice, as always, unemotional, digging his claws slightly into her shoulder.</font>
     
  13. <font color='#FFFF00'>Upon feeling the paw of this somewhat larger male. Qamu reached her forepaws up to his paw and flips him over her shoulder with the help of the wall that she was against. Drops back down onto her forepaws and crouched down close to the ground wincing slightly in pain from his claws in the flesh. "I was looking for someone that stole from the older 'dragon out on the streets." Hisses slightly and licks her lips a bit.
    "He claimed that he lost a knife to someone...", looked to the female out the corner of her eye then back to the male.</font>
     
  14. <font color='#FDD017'>Eryk felt the other 'dragon tense, but before he could react, he found himself flying through the air, and being slammed into a wall. Uuh was all he said as the air was knocked from his lungs. He rights himself, his tail flame growing slightly redder. The other 'dragon hissed, and spoke "I was looking for someone that stole from the older 'dragon out on the streets.He claimed that he lost a knife to someone..." Eryk glanced at Tevy, who looked away.
    "Yeah, well, it's not here.
    Eryk snarled, not out of anger, merely to try and frighten this annoying 'dragon off. Really, Eryk was annoyed that she wasn't a messenger for a potential employer.</font>
     
  15. <font color='#FF0000'>Tevy spun around as Eryk dived down upon the new 'dragon.  She watched as the small 'dragon flipped Eryk over, and smirked a little at the larger 'dragons "Uuh".  At the mention of the knife she looked away.  

    She stepped forward, towards the small 'dragon.

    "A knife, eh?  I doubt you'll find that here."

    The knife in question was safely concealed in the large black cloak she wore.</font>
     
  16. <font color='#FFFF00'>Relaxes slightly but keeps an eye on the winged-male dragon. Looks to the female again as she comes towards her and glares a bit. "So, you wouldn't have it? I mean if either one of you have it, just return the blade to me or give me the money so that I can pay off the old hemit." Sits down against the ground and winces a bit to the wound on her left shoulder where the male dug his claws into it. She looks away from the female and down towards the ground.</font>
     
  17. <font color='#FF0000'>"It's not here, ok?  I havn't bought - or stolen - a knife in many moons.  So bugger off and leave us alone."

    Though her voice was strong, Tevy's mind wasn't behind her statment.  She thanked whatever god may be listening for her skill at bending the truth.  Without it she would either be out a nice weapon or be forced to hand out something else to this 'dragon.  Neither suited Tevy's wants, therefore were not an opption for her.

    With a glance at Eyrk she began off down the street again.  She walked with a purpose, as if she had somewhere else to be.  She knew that was also a lie.</font>
     
  18. <font color='#FFFF00'>Looks up at the female again as she moves away from them both then glares as she watches her. Licks her nose slightly and sniffs the air, upon rising from the ground again. Walks over to the building side then places her forepaws against it. Looks to the male and shakes her head slowly. "You watch her...I mean, you never know if she will try and do you in as well." Looks back to the building then digs her claws into it. Upon doing this she dashes up the side of the building like just walking flatly on the ground.</font>
     
  19. <font color='#FDD017'>Eryk, still huffing slightly from being winded. He noded at the small she-'dragon's words. "No need to tell me that. Killing is my job. If I wasn't careful, I wouldn't be alive."
    Eryk flapped his leathery wings, and once again took flight. He surveyed both female 'dragons, each heading in opposite directions. Before, he was sure Tevy would lead him to something. Now he wasn't as sure. A similar feeling came over him as he talked to the yellow-brown one. Perhaps both will lead me... I have to keep them together. I'll threaten them if nead be...
    With that, Eryk drived to the ground, shrieking as he went, attepmting to arract their attention. When he ht the ground, he made sure he thudded, making a loud bang that echoed around the marketplace. The shady dealers merely pasued, and continued business. Eryk glaned to either side to see if the females had noticed...

    OOC: Meep! I don't know what to do! Could you guys play along, and lead Eryk somewhere where he can get a job? All of us could work together, if you wish. I haven't decided if Eryk is evil or not.. he just doesn't feel anything. I'll have to see how it plays out. So, will you help? Pweez?  [​IMG]</font>
     
  20. <font color='#FF0000'>OOC: Sounds good to me!  I havenÂ’t really settled on Tevy's character yet either, so this sounds good [​IMG]

    BIC: She spun around and glared at Eryk.  What in the world...?  Cautiously she walked back to the 'dragon, all her senses on edge.

    "Ok Eryk, what was that for?  Are you trying to get some ones attention or something?"

    As these words left Tevy's mouth she realized how ridicules she sounded.  It had gotten her attention, and wasn't she the one he wanted to follow so much?  She sighed and glared at the male again.</font>
