Icarius: Tale of an Orphan
« on: March 03, 2010, 02:39:28 pm »

ICARIUS
Tale of an Orphan

I am Icarius, Son of Owel Barkhallowed and Jenissia Doomglimmers.

Or at least, I was.

Goblins killed my parents when I was five. They slaughtered most of my town as well. Drenched in human blood, I vowed to repay the Greenskins in kind. I will leave them rotting in those obsidian towers they love so much.

I have enlisted you, the gods of my people, to help me in my time of need. We will purge the Planet of Prophecy of the stench of Goblins. Thousands of years from now, The only thing left will be their charred and blackened bones, buried under centuries of dirt.

You are my Gods.

I am your tool.

I will kill them all.

Are you there, Gods? Have you forsaken me? Do you stand with the Vile Greenskins?



I stand in your temple, On your Holy Ground and you still do not speak! Please allow me to hear your words!



This is me. All I know is what I learned from schoolyard fights and crushing beetles. I need your guideance to better myself and this world!

Armok?

Never heard of you, but all right, I will find the tallest tree!



A cougar attacked me as I ran to the forest to throw the holy rock! What shall I do? Should I wrestle this cougar and hope to snap its neck, should I engage it in a fistfight, Or should I run as fast as my legs may carry me?

I am 100killer9, god of kittens!
Find a kitten. Free your mind to it. Let it control adopt you.
But now, break the cougars neck (after gouging both its eyes out and pinching it until unconcious)

There are not any kittens in this world. It's completely fresh, genned for a couple hundred years specificly for this RP. As cats have no biome, they only spawn in your fortresses. No abandons, no cats. Sorry.

I am glad to have another god along though.

throw the holy rock!

I don't have it yet, unfortunately. also, you misspelled holy. I fixed it for you  ;)

Then try to control as many others as possible, and only eat vermin.

I am Fatana, Bookkeeper of Fate. As such I have your Book of Fate. In it contains everything you have done, is going to do and will do. If you listen to the gods on what you will do your Book of Fate will rewrite itself to follow the new happenings. But you must follow your Fate. I see that your path already has been tainted by a god, but I belive it is still possible for you to carry on.

In your book it says: "... Or should I run as fast as my legs may carry me? Nay, for if I do I would never be able to take my revenge upon the filthy Greenskins. This is but a step to strengthen me before my quest. I shall fight it with what I have, my fists and feets. I will gouge it's eyes making it blind and then I will take my time in snapping it's neck."

Do this and you will follow your Fate.

Hello. I am the Trapped One, here to guide you.

Fight carefully, remembering to move when attacked (change the stand ground setting!)

Slay that pathetic housecat! Gouge its eyes out! Break its bones! Make it yowl for death, then RIP its throat out, screaming bloody praise to us, the gods!

I lunged at the Cougar, Your praises opn my lips, and grabbed hold of its head. It bit my body, but I felt no pain. I popped out its eyes like grapes and crushed them beneath my bare feet.



I strangled the Cougar until it ceased to move. It now lies dead before me. What shall I do?

Heal yourself, mortal. You cannot hope to fight any goblin just yet. You must train, learn the ways of stealth and the way of the sword. Ware the wolves, mortal. You cannot possibly take on the fruit of my blood right now, that which was spilt at the dawn of time.
