War of the Dragon King (Speed Event)

[David B.]

The earth rumbled. In the distance, screams could be heard, massive explosions rattling the trees. Horns continued to blow as all the fighters would be led to the edge of the campgrounds. As they moved they would notice everyone around them coming out of tents in full battle gear, some slight differences between the outfits such as color and armaments.



Up in front was the older man from before, who'd fought Krane. He stood up on a large wooden box that had been brought over for him. There was agreat field across from them, and the people would see a large swathing army marching in their direction, coming from the small outlying town near the border of 259 and 234. They wore clear cut outfits, disgnating their territory.

102.

The men and women shouted, holding aloft swords, spears and halberds. The man drew his sword slowly as his body began to shimmer, a full set of futuristic armor forming around his body. He turned back to his people.

"ROUND TWO, my friends! Whether you were lost in round one or not, it doesn't matter. Your sword is welcome on the field. To win this round requires two parts. Kill the most enemies, and do not die."

He laughed and raised his sword.

"MAY THE BEST WARRIOR WIN!"

He turned and jumped off the box and started sprinting at the enemy, his 500 soldiers screaming and blitzing forward.

To war.

************************************************************************************************

Those who chose to join him would be able to rush at the forefront or fight from the rear. The armies rushed each other, and in the cold clang of explosive steel, the armies met, smashing into each other, the Hearth warriors carving into the 102 enemies like butter. Screams erupted throughout the battlefield, blood spraying the air and covering those at the fore front.

Alarms would sound at Cabal as the armies of the school were raised. Those not with the Dragons would find themselves summoned for battle!

Those in Cabal, please post with yourselves moving on your way to battle. You will join in next round. Those from the Voice thread may join immediately.

All abilities are reset. All item abilities are reset, and your characters feel fresh as FUCK. You find yourselves going up against 790 enemies from territory 102.

[Krane Asiv]

Krane had eaten his flower and stared at the coming enemy. The old man from before leading his army, Krane would take a breath.

"Everyone! Melee up front, side by side. Ranged fall to the rear and fire from afar! Support, sit in the middle."

Krane himself would take a middle position to play support and ranged.

"Charge!"

He would rush forward in the formation, if there was one.

Krane now has the ability to order strategic defenses. All PC’s who follow his orders for this thread get +1 exp to every stat, for every round they listen. Boosts last for thread, up to a maximum of +7 to every stat.

[Blake Oleander]

Dante sat atop Blake's shoulder, the Death Scythe strapped to his back as he made his way to the front lines. His people were still at Cabal, and he would protect them with all of his might. Shifting the mask to cover his face he would go to the front lines, the Zwiehander in his hand. Jake's legacy, and today it would once again help to protect their people.

Blake was in the front, following Krane's orders. One of the few in Cabal he respected. He'd hold the line and charge when ordered!  This was his comfort zone, a soldier in battle.

Blake gets +10 Energy for the thread!
Blake gets Death Scythe!

[Mathew Amtrum]

While he cared little for Cabal itself, it was important to Leon, and so he'd fight to defend it. Taking his spot front and center with his blade drawn. He was fine listening to Krane for now. The front line was where the action was. He'd charge with the others!

[Bailey Oleander]

Following Krane's orders, Bailey would be up in the middle, offering buffs and support as needed, but able to function as melee if things turned that way! Jackal is hanging out on her shoulder.

[Kyrie Blaze]

It seemed as though her fight with August was cut short, even her strafing roll to the side coming up short with the explosions that grabbed both their attention. Off she darted, her focus shifting as the ring cleared itself of the Colosseum. Blue eyes quickly took in who was up to what, and Krane's call had her...deliberate a moment, but only just.

She swept forward, into position with the other melee at the front with her sword drawn.

If it surprised her that Mathew was alive, she didn't show it. Maybe she didn't even see him, considering they were charging forward as one unit. Wings extended from her head as a mask took form over her face...and she scanned the leader, looking for weaknesses.

[Aryn Valcoph]

Aryn fucking leaves Cabal.

[Avice Locke]

She hardly saw the aftermath but felt things would be worse off. She left to retrieve her new limbs armoring up an abled soldier ranther than not.

She tested her crystal in her hand. And a long energy sword appeared in her grip she saw its Qi flow and figured out what she needed. Never holding a sword before it would be a crash course but it was better than her crutch.

[David B.]

Off to the side, horns that sounded just like those of Cabalan make would go off, and 150 men of Cabal would be on the way, led by David who was still wearing his official clothing from his mission. He'd only just returned, but he'd have his sword in hand, rushing into the side of the enemy who redirected a hundred of their men to engage, the Cabal armies and those of 102 smashing together hard. Avice and Aryn would be engaging with these soldiers! David shouted-

"Aryn, Avice, Move over with thirty men each and reinforce the right flank! We've got this."

Thirty men would form up behind each of them.

Krane would notice that a contingent of about one hundred eighty men broke off the back, rushing around the right side in a flanking maneuver, intent to hit the support and ranged groups.

Kyrie would note there was indeed a leader....one quite familiar. Snapping finger after finger, Almast Grit wore battle armor of 102, and was blasting away man after man. Standing at the rear of the army were fifteen massive Mechs, about twice the size of the previous ones. They were powering up, marching behind and pointing what looked like energy weapons at the front!

"FORWAAAAARD!"

Blake would crash into the sea of enemies, his sword clashing hard. He'd find his allies on either side of him, cutting into enemies as well. Two of them engaged him directly. One swung for his good leg while the other pressed his blade against his, trying to force him to be distracted.

Mathew smashed into opponents, three men engaging him directly. He'd find one with an Axe, one with a sword and the other with spiky knuckle dusters. The axe and swordmen would swing for each side of body. The knuckle duster went low and punched for his midsection!

Bailey would be midrange, and would notice the same thing Krane did- there was an enemy force breaking off to engage their ranged support at the rear. Those ranged men are about 150 men with various degrees of Qi attacks, firing ice and fight and energy into the enemy from afar. There were about 180 enemies moving to attack them!

[Krane Asiv]

Krane narrowed his eyes at the shift.

"Ares! Shift for the flanking soldiers!"

Krane himself would turn.

"Support, aid melee! Melee hold the line here!"

"Aryn, Avice! Move to intercept the flanking maneuver!"

He needed to gauge the flanking maneuver so moving the unit forward would be bad in case of a trap.

[Bailey Oleander]

Bailey follows orders again, buffing Blake as he's in the melee!

[Blake Oleander]

Blake would nod to himself, holding the line, his sword shooting out an energy field in front of him and five feet to either side of him. A barrier that would deflect the blows of his enemies while letting those of his companions strike true! He'd grin behind his mask as his energy built up in his chest before exploding toward the two men in front of him and into the ranks of men behind them!

[Avice Locke]

Avice looked at their lot before hearing the words from the God's mouth she had a good vibrant view of the field.

"Defensive in front and range in back... Hold a line!" she'd tell the 30 or so with her it didn't matter who was with her when she would start the charge in unison with Aryn's.

[Jeremiah Sykes]

Jeremiah would form up next to Mathew.

"Lead on, Earth Dragon."

Mathew gains command of Jeremiah in the war! He may order him as necessary to engage in any way needed. Jeremiah brings 50 men with him, also under Mathew's control. Those 50 men are freely controllable and adjustable by Mathew.

[Kyrie Blaze]

"Krane! The leader is the same from last time. His qi can be shut down if he is contained and prevented being able to move...or if he gets freezing cold or overheated! Otherwise, his explosions are nasty." Kyrie called out what she saw, brow coming together a moment. "He is at least twice as strong as Cabal's top-tier soldiers! The rest are about average, aside from the mechs!"

The mask broke apart before she started to speak, dissipating now that she didn't need it.

Otherwise...she was holding the line as ordered, using her sword to cut through anyone that got too close...those mechs, though...
