Blessed Blade Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 -==IC: Desiana and Sarkan//Oasis Ruins==-Desiana frowned, as she considered everything that the group had been talking about. She had stayed quiet for the most part while they were looking for the caches, but was a little disappointed that they hadn't found anything. Meanwhile, Sarkan was even more disappointed about not finding anything, and even more disappointed that there hadn't been anything good to use his mask power on.No matter. When I get the chance I will use the power. And when I use it, I can strike against the wielder of the power to steal it for myself. The Toa of Magnetism thought, as he stood nearby, though he couldn't care less about the group's idea to grow more organized. Desiana thought about how anything could be organized better, and was about to open her mouth, when another voice cut her off."Unity... Duty.... Destiny... Our Unity is us gathering here, and our bonds of friendship growing through our trials. Our Duty is to each other; to protect us while we fight alongside each other on this forsaken island. Our Destiny... Is to get off the island no matter how it happens, and destroy the ones in charge." The voice called out from inside the ruins. Desiana looked to the entrance, and Sarkan scowled at the ideals that were mentioned, as they were of no use to him, however, it was obvious who was speaking a moment later, as a green armoured being stepped out of the ruins, and looked at the gathered group. Kairan had finally woken up again."Irradiated Hopes. That's what I propose for our group's name. Both as a reference to Irrianne, and technically to show that our hopes can't be broken." Kairan said, as he looked over the group, and then smiled."Did I miss anything while I was asleep?"

Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 IC: Arillan / Stony LeapArillan pulled out the mixing vessel, and used gravity to pull a few blocks of stone together into a rough pillar. In the same way he placed the mixing vessel on top."Once you have all placed your ingredients within the vessel, I will place my second ingredient, the last one, within and begin concocting the antidote using the vessel."He looked at them all. "When I am done, as I have stated, I will take my leave with what I need. Hopefully, next time we meet the situation will be more favorable. And by favorable, your death will be swift from an arrow shot."He chuckled.

Magnus Greel Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) IC: Stony Leap''Very well, Arillan,'' said Hexxon. ''Though, remember. I'm listening, and waiting, just in case...''Even if this Toa of Air didn't plan on running off with or destroying the antidote, he still couldn't trust him fully. Vertan even more so...''You better not try anything, Toa.'' he warned.The Psionic Toa chuckled a little about Arillan's threats. As if he could. I could kill him so much faster, and in more ways than he could think of. Both Hexxon and Vertan pulled out their portions of the cure, but held on tight to them as they placed them into the container. The Toa emptied his spores into it, and Vertan carefully dropped the piece of green ice into it.Such an odd ingrediant to hide near a volcano, the Skakdi thought.

Franco Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 IC: Grotir had watched the display of power with interest. The guy's mask was either a Matatu, a Garai, or something else with gravitational powers.Now she, crude cesti gloving her hands, held tight to her ingredients' containers as she added them to the mix. The hybrid then sat down. She had made sure her macuahuitl was still right behind her and in a position from which she could reach it with her arm and bring it up to fight easily. She pulled off the cesti and continued working on them. They were probably good for combat at this point, but she still wanted to refine them. And again, it wasn't like Grotir had anything better to do. [Profiles] Wisdom. Restraint. Emptiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Whilst I personally find both not of my taste - though as I never knew this toa, the one means little to me - Strife just sounds... wrong. Whatever, though."Looking to Darkon, she said, "I don't particularly care. They are fools making a fools mistake. They left - only two of them - to engage one of the islands most powerful toa in a place where he would be most powerful. And light and shadow? A poor combination in such a place. Shadows will obstruct their view, and light will bounce around their and cause more damage than anything else. As I have stated - we should consider them dead."IC: Arillan / Stony LeapArillan nodded off to Grotir, and turned to Jontan. "Place the ingredient in the vessel." he said.

''I am skilled at my power; no one can touch my mind without my consent, and there's no unshielded mind that I cannot enter.'' his tone and stare were dangerous, implying that what he said was no boast - but truth. Then he turned his eyes to Jontan. ''Yes, let's finish this. I'm sure we all wish to be rid of eacthother's company.''The Toa didn't like the look of Jontan's mind.

Blessed Blade Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 -==IC: Kairan//Oasis Ruins==-Kairan blinked."Shadow and light guys?" Kairan asked, as he raised an eyebrow, and thought for a moment before responding about the name."So, let me just get this straight... A group that's fighting for peace for the slaves... Should be named Strife? Did I get that right? Just wanna make sure." Kairan said, trying to point out that one part about the name. He wasn't opposed to the name; but a one word name didn't really seem to 'fit' in his opinion; and as he had pointed out, the name did seem a little weird as it effectively meant the opposite of what they wanted."I'll be the first to admit that the name I thought up wasn't the absolute greatest, but it's a start, in my opinion." Kairan explained, as he looked over the rest of the group.

Oblitus Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 IC: Umaroth: Shimmering Wastes:Umaroth grinned. This enemy had shown to be a coward, rather than to fight. Not killing him had not mattered to Umaroth, but a sense of pride engulfed him. He was more willing to fight. Blinding White, however, exploited his weakness: he only fights to survive for shelter and rewards. Greed now has consumed his mind. Umaroth then flew out of the hole Blinding White had made, and looked out for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as you may not enter into the mind your fellow here, or into those with training, you cannot unearth the secrets of one who doesn't want them seen. Using psionics, you do not have immediate access to the mind. You still have to get into a mind. But the mind is a labyrinth, and some cannot get to what lies within."Crossing his arms, Arillan said, "You can anticipate my moves in combat. You can sense my outer thoughts - for example, right now you can see a dozen possible ways for me to kill you, and then the thirteenth one I would actually perform. But if you think for one moment you can enter the recesses of anyone's mind, you would be wrong."IC: Levacius / The Griffon IILevacius stared out, and said, "The caches have already been recovered.

''You seem to talk a lot about the mind, for one who has never held the power of Psionics. You might have worn some mask of the Element - a Suletu or Komau, maybe - but never truly.

Skarloth Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 IC Kono - Shadowtangle - Heading to the Yawning Sunder: Once again he had been abandoned; no problem, he did not like those people in any way. At long last, he was finally in the jungle of Shadowtangle, he moved through it silently and quickly, making use of the shadows around him to ward off any Rahi that wanted to attack him. He also used the shadows to heighten his awareness in the area, feeling with the long shadows, and getting an overall better view of the jungle that surrounded him. Kono was able to clear a path through the jungle with the immense amount of shadow around him, and his journey towards the Sunder was only quickened by this. He didn't know what was driving him towards his destination, all he knew was that he needed to get there. -Kono Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"No privacy at all, eh? Haha," the Toa said, making way for an Observer as it flew in to watch the people around Stony Leap.
