Zofus "Zerg" Berg, Ochita, and Nirathi.
The carriage bumps around slightly as you are taken to the Mages Guild, one of the most prestigious guilds in the land. As you look around the carriage you can see it's two other three occupants clearly. They are what seems to be two rather novice mages, and a figure in black sleeping in the corner. The two novice mages are awake, but deathly quiet. You sigh, as this trip seems like it's going to be a quiet one...
| You are quickly thrown from your thoughts as your vision rolls. As is common in a perilous situation, time seems to slow down, and you asses your situation in shock. The carriage seems to be twirling in mid air, with your fellow novices in the same state of panic, the figure in black muttering something you can't make out. As you try and look outside the cart, all you can see is a blaze of red. Soon time speeds up, and an orb of some sort of glassy material seems to cover the carriage. The carriage seems to be suspended with in the glasslike material as the ball hits the ground, as there is no real rough landing. As the carriage lowers to the ground, you are able to make out that the glassy material seems to be ice.
Soon, the ball melts, and you and your fellow mages scramble outside. In contrast to the icy ball, the outside seems to be blazing, as if coming from a sun right next to you! You turn around, and there you see one of the most powerful demons, a mighty
Balor! You hear the shuffling of a robe behind you, as the man in black walks forward and says, "Stay back! You are no match for this foul beast." You heed his word, and run a good distance away.
Combat!Man in Black:
| The man in black starts summoning a blizzard around the Balor, creating an Orb of Ice, and manifesting a Spear of Ice.
Balor:
| The balor starts to manifest a whip of flame, but in too casual in its use, and the flames come to close to its body
| Even though it is a beast of flame, the fire it created seems to be a bit too hot, and damages its left hand a little (-1 to rolls with the left hand for 3 turns).
NPC only combat, turn 2
Man in Black: His blizzard soars into a deadly rage, buffeting the demon
|| but the damage is insignificant. The man in black quickly throws his Spear of Ice, it's magic homing in on the beast's
|| head, blasting the beasts skull into oblivion. It falls over, dead, its flames extinguished.
The man in black turns around to you cowering in the fields at his incredible display of skill, and asks, "Are you OK?"
Thrakor and Zerus Halfmoon
Being as the Archaeological Guild wasn't far from your location, a simple walk was all it took to get you there. Once there, you are greeted by a diminutive elf, dressed in a fancy and flowing robe.
"Hello, my name is Dantal, and I'm to be your guide around the Archaeological Guild, and your mission courier. If you have any questions before we begin our tour, now is the time to ask."
Kira Talneris
The Fighters Guild is also within the city you are currently in. You quickly get to your destination, and a Greygim meets you at the door, with a battleaxe on his back.
"Name's Djork. I'm here to show you around, and to see to it you do all your mission stuff. Let's get a move on," He says gruffly before you are able to answer.
You come to a door in a long corridor. Djork speaks to you, motioning at the door, "This is the Whelp barracks, where you'll be staying. Go in and pick a bed that's free,"
You enter the room, it being completely devoid of anyone, and look around. It is a rather large space, with forty queen sized bunk beds adorning it's walls, two chests, side by side, in front of each. Looking at a roster on the door, you see that there are four spaces open, one bottom bed in the front, two top beds in the middle, and one bottom bed in the back.
