Rpg: The Legend Of Zelda: Oracle Of Destiny

[Terminus]

IC: Siris, Hyrule CastleSiris, who had walked into the armory moments earlier, stepped out to see what the commotion was. He had also accidentally strapped a Hylian Shield onto his arm, but he didn't notice how rusted it was and needed help getting it off. He knew which shield not to take. He was still fumbling with the shield as he walked out of the room, and almost bumped into his two companions and a girl, who were all staring blankly at a picture on the wall...

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa looked absently at Siris and nodded at him before noticing the shield on his arm. "That, uh... Looks a bit old. Are you stuck?"

[Daniel Bryan]

IC: Tobias / Burning HouseTobias nodded, taking one final look at the burning house. "I believe we should take our leave now," Tobias said. "I can escort you into the town, should you need it."~Det

[Terminus]

IC: Siris"Uh... Yeah, I could use some help with this. Always check for rust..."Siris looked up and noticed the girl for the first time. "I'm Siris. And you are?"

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Katrina//Hyrule Castle==-Katrina looked at Siris with a smile."My name is Katrina. Nice to meet you, Siris." Katrina said with a nod, as she thought for a moment, and then placed her hands on the shield, and then attempted to pull it off. Orion turned around, and watched what happened, as he blinked, and shook his head.OOC: =P-==IC: Link's Uncle//Burning House On The Hill==-The uncle nodded."How will you get me there without me being seen, though?" The uncle asked, curious.

IC: Tobias / Burning HouseTobias thought , and was about to give up when he noticed something wrapped around his leg. A blanket. Tobias bent down to pick it up, then held it up, judging the size of it, concluded it was significantly larger than Link's Uncle. "I think I have an idea, it may also give you time to relax yourself... or hurt somewhat, either way, we can get in."~Det

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Link's Uncle==-"Alright then." Link's uncle said with a sigh, as he nodded."Let's go with your plan then." The uncle said, as he hoped it worked, and sufficiently tricked everyone. Unfortunately, everyone also included Link, but sincce he was missing for the moment, there wasn't too much of a worry there.

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa ducked under the shield and fiddled with the old leather straps keeping it buckled to Siris's arm. "Oh my, this is really stuck... You okay if I try to cut through it?"

[Terminus]

IC: Siris"I'd appreciate that, Korkoa. Its a bit looser now, thanks to Katrina, but I still can't pull my hand through... It's a good thing that the strap is leather, otherwise I'd be in trouble..."

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa nodded and held one arm out, away from everyone. Clenching his fist, a long, sharp, curved fin extended from his wrist. He brought his arm back under the shield and used the tip of his swordfin to slice neatly through the leather straps. "There we go! Tell me, is it true that in your world, Zoras don't seem to have swordfins?"

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Orion==-Orion thought about Korkoa's question, and nodded."They don't seem to. Haven't exactly gotten close enough to find out for sure or not. They do seem to have fireball breathing abilities, however." Orion said, as he recalled one instance of an encounter with a Zora.

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa nodded slowly and pulled the shield off Siris's arm. "Interesting... I would not have predicted that ability. I wonder if they have an electric field as well..."

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Orion//Hyrule Castle==-"Maybe." Orion said, and frowned."It might've been a ball of electricity, but given the fact that it's typically a red ball, I doubt it." Orion said with a chuckle."What about you? What are people like where you're from?" Orion asked, curious about that.

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa chuckled and shrugged. "Well, as far as Zoras go, we have the swordfins and an electric field we can project from our bodies. Most of us are really into music too, we just love to rock. As for the other species in Termina, I think most of them are pretty similar to Hylia. Except for the Garo, but they are pretty secretive..."

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Orion//Hyrule Castle==-Orion nodded at that."I see. That makes sense." orion said, and then looked at the armoury."Come on, let's see what we can find there." Orion said with a smile.

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa cracked his knuckles and walked into the armory after Orion. He stopped inside the doorway, whistling at the impressive sight before him. Hundereds of swords and shields, sets of armor, tunics, satchels, anything a potential solder could need! "Wow... This is amazing..."

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Orion//Hyrule Castle==-Orion was honestly impressed as he walked into the room, and looked around. He picked up a longsword, and tested it in his hand. He noted that it seemed pretty balanced, and nodded, as he picked up it's scabbard, and then placed the sword back in the scabbard, and placed that on his back. He looked around a bit more, and then noticed a shield, that shined a bit in the light, and noticed that it had a white background, and the insignia of the Knights of Hyrule in red. Orion smiled, and chose that for his shield, as he placed that on his back as well, and looked around for other things that he might be able to use.

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa made beeline for the armor section of the room. He looked over a few chainmail suits, running his scaly fingers across the tiny links. After a moment, he picked a sleeveless chainmail shirt, appapently used for desert warfare. He slipped into it and was surpised to find that it fit perfectly. He looked around a bit more and found a light blue tunic to slip over the chainmail. He found a polished shield the check his reflection in, and shook his head. Something was missing... Ah! The Zora found, after a quick search, a pair of plain trousers. As a final touch, he grabbed a pair of treated leather bracers and slipped them on his wrists. A quick flex of his muscles later, and this swordfins extended, cutting a neat slit in the bracers so that he could wear them while fighting. Smiling and nodding to his reflection in the shield, he made his way back to the others. "Well, what do you think?"

[Daniel Bryan]

IC: Tobias / Burning HouseTobias laid out the blanket and instructed Link's Uncle to crouch into a ball as best he could. Tobias did some more check over and nodded, wrapping up Link's Uncle in the blanket. Using his sword gently, he cut an air hole large enough for Link's Uncle to get air, but not enough for a significant rip to occur. "Alright, this is extremely crazy, stupid, but it's the only idea I have now," Tobias said, trying to hoist the makeshift bag onto his back. "We'll get into town, and we'll find an alley to let you out."~Det

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Link's Uncle//Burning Down The House==-A grunt confirmed his idea was the only one, and that he agreed, or; it might also have meant 'this plan is horrible, let me out!'... Really, there was no way to tell right at that moment.-==IC: Orion//Hyrule Castle==-Orion had, in the mean time, found a light chainmail shirt of his own, and thought for a moment, and wondered if it would work underneath his tunic, and remembered to store it in the bag he had brought, to test out later. Orion then frowned, as he looked around."Hey, where'd Katrina go?" Orion asked, as he sighed, not wanting to have to deal with already losing one of the members of their group.

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa looked around, confused. "I'm not sure... I didn't see her near the armor, did she come in with us?"

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Orion//Hyrule Castle Armoury==-"I thought she did..." Orion said, and began to start looking around, when he saw he walk out of a room, and look in a mirror, with a sword and shield already equipped, and a chainmail tunic she hadn't been wearing earlier. Katrina paused, and blinked, as she noticed the fact that Orion was surprised that she had changed and already obtained her equipment, and motioned to the room she just had exited."Change rooms are over there, if you're looking for them." Katrina said, and then walked over to a chair, and sat down to wait for the others to finish finding equipment to take for the journey.

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa chuckled when he saw Katrina walk out of the room, and headed over to her, grabbing an empty satchell on his way and slinging it over his shoulder. "Well, you wasted no time, eh?"

[HeavyMetalSunshineSister]

OOC: Blade, a post for the situation developing in the Faron Woods would be appreciated.

[Terminus]

IC: SirisSiris looked through all of the equipment in the armory. The first thing that he found was a bronze shield, inlaid with a silver royal crest. He checked the strap, and noticed that it seemed rather new. He also saw that the entire shield was backed with leather, it was probably designed to be heat resistant and for use in extreme climates. The next thing he grabbed was a broadsword with a golden royal crest on it. Its handle and hilt were wrapped in brown leather, as was the lower part of the blade, for about six inches. He noticed that and thought that it would be a good weapon to have, especially if he could not take out his shield in time. He then looked through the armor, and found some light chainmail, which fit nicely under his coat. He also found a bronze gauntlet with a silver royal crest, and grabbed it, as it matched the shield. After, he looked around and grabbed a knife and a large cup, necessities for a traveler who knew how to hunt and cook. He had slipped everything on as he got it, and went over to the others, who also seemed like they had all of the equipment they needed.

-==IC: Katrina//Hyrule Castle Armoury==-Katrina shrugged."I just grabbed what I thought would be good. And I like the colour blue, so getting that tunic in my size was pretty quick." Katrina said with a smile.Orion looked around, and shrugged, as he walked into the change room. A moment or two later, he walked out, his chainmail now worn under his tunic."I wonder if this is how all the knights feel on their first day; like some big hero?" Orion asked, with a slight chuckle, as he waited for everyone to finish choosing their equipment. When he saw that Siris had finished, he smiled."Well then... Everyone ready?" Orion asked, just to make sure.OOC: Alright, I had posted another IC, but I guess it's hard to follow someone who didn't move in that post. =P-==IC: Kreena//Faron Woods==-Kreena moved through the woods quickly, but did make sure that her Garo companion was following, as she headed back to the main road for the Woods. She moved across the makeshift bridge that lead toward the Lost Woods entrance, and frowned."Odd... I saw this on the way here, too... I don't recall this bridge being here earlier. It might have been put here to allow the people from Termina easier access to the main part of Hyrule... But... It's still weird." Kreena said, but then smiled."Follow me; we're nearly to the main part of the Faron Woods."

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa nodded, smiling. "I'm ready, and pretty excited, may I add!"

[Terminus]

IC: Siris"I'm ready" was all he could get out in his rush of excitement, he was finally prepared to go on an adventure.Siris looked around at everyone, and noticed that he was the only one without a new tunic, he was still wearing his brown jacket. He felt a bit out of place, but he liked wearing his coat much better than the tunic, since it had convenient pockets for things such as maps, letters, and rupees. He also liked how he could easily take it off for quick relief from heat or to relax.

[HeavyMetalSunshineSister]

OOC: Actually completely missed that other post. If this scenario were a tennis match, you'd be in the lead at the moment.IC(Adskhan): When they came to the bridge, the Garo stopped and looked at it for a bit, then kept following. While the bridge could have been built to help people from Termina through, it seemed doubtful - the passage in the Catacombs wasn't particularly well-known in Termina, which meant that there wouldn't be very many people coming through. Additionally, it seemed to him that it would be more helpful to put a signpost or two in the Lost Woods themselves.Adding to his doubts about the usefulness, and therefore the purpose, of the bridge, was the fact that he had been forced to leave the Lost Woods via treetop, and had therefore not seen the bridge until now.

[Daniel Bryan]

IC: Tobias / Hyrule FieldWith a grunt, Tobias hoisted Link's Uncle over his back, and after gaining his balance, started making his way down the hill, on their way back to Castle Town. "This may be the worst idea, but it's the best one I could come up with at this time," Tobias said with a grim chuckle.~Det

[Blessed Blade]

Siris looked around at everyone, and noticed that he was the only one without a new tunic,

OOC: Actually, Orion just got new chainmail; he's still wearing his old Tunic he had worn from the start. =P

OOC: Nice. =P-==IC: Kreena//Faron Woods==-Kreena frowned, as she reached the actual woods, and paused, as she looked to their left."That's odd... I thought someone was watching us..." Kreena muttered, but shook her head, and simply started to walk further back through the woods again, wondering what could have made her suspicious like that.-==IC: Link's Uncle//Hyrule Fields==-Link's uncle didn't respond at that moment, but mentally agreed, as he waited to when Tobias would reach Castle Town, and then the actual plan would start.-==IC: Orion//Hyrule Castle==-"Alright then, let's start." Orion said with a smile, as he started to head back outside. Orion walked a couple steps, and frowned slightly, as he thought he heard an owl hooting somewhere nearby, but figured it could be just his imagination, as he started to head back toward the drawbridge."So, where do you guys think we should start? Labrynna, or Holodrum?" Orion asked, curious about that.

[dRoko]

IC: Dug/Hyrule FieldDug runned as fast as he can. He really ​ want some items. However, as he runned fast......he bumped into a tree! 'Ow....' he said, feeling his mouth. I should really watch out more,​ he thought, walking away from the tree.

OOC: Okay.. I'm done breaking from Role-playing.IC: William/// Forest temple The Skulltula swung back at him, but thankfully for him, he was laying on the floor, so it flew over him, he was able to squirm backwards a little bit out of it's range, he quickly got up, and then formulated a simple plan. He threw a rupee at the wall, and it turned towards it. William slashed it twice in it's exposed back and then...~Powerminer~

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Skulltula==-The Skulltula then whirled back around, and attempted to spit some venom at William, to catch him off guard.OOC: I believe that's one of the new moves the Skulltula have...

[Korkoa]

IC: Korkoa shrugged as he followed Orion. "I'm a newcomer to this land, I know nothing about those locations. I would suggest going to whichever is closer."

[HeavyMetalSunshineSister]

OOC: That new move of theirs certainly saves the Skulltula from the embarrassment of being killed because it was distracted by something shiny.Also, I feel the need to remind some people that this is not the video games. A "shield bash" isn't a single thing, because, in real life, or, really, anything other than a video game (in which you're restricted to a certain number of possible moves), there are multiple different ways to strike an enemy with your shield. Don't post ICs that say "Egbert von Slasherton shield bashed the spider and then slashed it twice while it had its back turned and then did a jump-slash." Describe what would happen in your closest approximation of how a good writer would describe it, not how someone who's thinking "Press A! Press A!" would describe it.Incidentally, this also means that the enemies aren't (or, really, shouldn't be) restricted to a certain number of stock moves. In a world where giant spiders can exist (and, by inference, where matches are deadly weapons), they're going to do all the freaky-aggressive horror-terrory things spiders do, but to people instead of moths. One thing that disappointed me about the big spiders in Twilight Princess was how they moved less like a scaled-up spider and more like a bucket of angry that happened to be wearing the body of a spider. No sudden lunges while they were running, no display of the same sort of caution, none of that.Also, if you feel the need to add more horrorterror than the wolf-spiders and tarantulas skulltulas somewhat resemble in behavior can provide, look up the bolas spider.IC(Adskhan): The Garo's hands moved a little closer to the hilts of his swords as he eyed the trees cautiously, scanning for any sort of obvious enemy - not that he expected to find any. A forest was a great place if you didn't want to be found, so long as you were careful about where and when you moved."If you felt that something was watching you, they probably were," Adskhan whispered, holding a single raised finger in front of his hood, hoping she would get the idea to be quiet. With the dry leaves on the ground, they were hardly stealthy, but they might have a chance of catching any enemy unawares if they weren't talking. Really, it would be best to spend some time preparing camouflage from the brush and to keep to the shadows, but it was a little late for that.

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Kreena//Faron Woods==-If Adskhan was looking for obvious enemies, he might not find them. He probably caught a glimpse of what seemed to be a shadow at one point, however, it vanished quickly, and could simply be a normal creature's shadow. Kreena nodded at what Adskhan said, however, motioned to keep moving forward, even when she prepared herself mentally to grab her sword if it actually came down to a fight.

[HeavyMetalSunshineSister]

IC(Adskhan): Adskhan was uneasy. He'd caught a glimpse of some movement out of the corner of his eye, though he couldn't make anything out about what it was he'd seen moving - as with the Bokoblins before, it could very well have been no more than a squirrel.With the elusiveness of whatever was watching them, Adskhan scanned the ground ahead, checking for pitfalls and other traps. They were intending to meet the enemy eventually, but meeting the enemy with one foot in a snare - unless that foot belonged to the enemy - was far from ideal. While he was checking the leaf litter, he also listened carefully, checking for the normal sounds of a forest - birds chirping, small animals skittering through the underbrush, things like that. Like a canary in a coal mine, the reaction of the small animals to their surroundings would likely tell him something was wrong before his own eyes would.

[Blessed Blade]

-==IC: Kreena//Faron Woods==-That's when a hawk took off into the air, screeching about something, as a roar sounded out."That doesn't sound very good..." Kreena whispered to Adskhan, as she gripped the handle of her sword, ready to draw it, even as she cautiously moved forward a bit, not sure what creature that roar could have belonged to...

[HeavyMetalSunshineSister]

IC(Adskhan): The Garo looked in the direction the hawk had come from, scanning the trees for the slightest sign of movement."What predators live in this forest? Any naturally-occurring thing that could explain that?" Adskhan's whisper was barely audible, almost more of a hiss than anything else. From his stance it was clear that he was tense, but it was hard to tell whether he was frightened by the developing situation, or actually impatient for whatever had been watching them, and whatever just roared, to reveal themselves.
