The Earth Element swirled around him, flowing a dark green. The other two dark orbs that swirled around him currently weren't being sustained. 'Although I could probably invoke Water here too..' He thought to himself. The sewers were the most ideal place to practice sustaining the Earth Element. The lower down he was in the land, the more wild the power would be, and the more practice he could have in taming it. Though every time he slipped on...Gunk, he would momentarily lose control of holding the Element and waves of green would ripple through the tunnel causing rumblings in the already fragile surroundings.

He broke the connection to Earth for his own well-being but was aware that maybe the echos weren't caused from his slight disruptions, and that maybe some others were down here. running towards the noise he saw some..People almost his age ahead of him and slid to a stop, almost ramming into them. "Woah! That was.. Fun." He said half to himself and cleared his throat. Standing up straight and attempting to brush off the...Dirt from his robes, he bowed his head to everyone. "Greetings I'm Jojo! I can sort of bear elements...Sort of! I'd be happy to travel with you, if you'd let me as I appear to be quite lost!" His voice was a bit on the high side, with a slight hold on the end of the sentence, as if he were unsure of what he said was alright or consequential.

He looked ahead and saw a girl, perhaps a bit older than himself? It was hard to tell with her crouched down and seemingly interested in the Fungi before her, and some lizard-like men before her. Although she was quite unaware of the predicament that she got herself into. He gave himself a grin and enjoyed her obliviousness to just how quickly she may be killed if no immediate action were to take place. "Tally ho! Looks like you guys may be needing my assistance after all!" The three gray orbs around him began to swirl faster and faster, as if anticipating the fight. "I'm not too sure about Invoking Fire in this place, but I'm sure that Water, Earth and Wind wouldn't mind lending a hand!" He exclaimed with a bit of a crazy gleam in his eyes.

Jojo starts at J7!

Dirge had been unable to get a word in edgewise by the time she joined the rest of the group. She did, however, notice Karmen and his friend among the group and was quick to step into place behind them. She did want to get to know the bird keeper specifically, and with her somewhat formed relationship with him, it only made sense for her to start with him. She was certain that along the way she would be able to get to know Angie as well.

Dirge starts at J4!

When they all came to a stop in the sewer, Dirge was quick to fall into line behind the white-haired engineer. "After this, I'd like to meet the two of you under better circumstances." the violinist voiced aloud, throwing her hands into position and feeling the weight of her instrument as it materialized. Her comment clearly directed at the two next to her, as she nodded after the comment her gaze lingering on Karmen for a short while.

Sallete stared at the other girl for a while. She had been silent the whole time. She sure was curious about her, but was far too mesmerized by Jackie to bear dividing her focus. When the group started walking to the sewers, she just positioned herself beside her new friend and followed along, whistling happily, completely oblivious to the feelings she made Karmen, Angie and Vanessa have for her. Save a few special moments of clarity, Sallete was downright incapable of reading other people's feelings.

Sally came to a stop when Jackie crouched, taking a second to admire her behind, and then quickly changing to the sample the girl was showing her. She was about to ask her to talk more about them, when the subject decided to come to light. With a pull and a loud roar, Sally brought Amaranth to life, a faint, though violent hum filled the humid corridor as the blade vibrated. Barely she took a step to her position, a...in fact, Sally was unable to determine the person's gender in any way. He...she...IT was beautiful, but his...her...ITS androginy completely threw the enginner off her track.

-Oh...hi...I guess I will...stay here and defend you guys...and stuff...yeah, whatever...I'm Sally, this is Amaranth, peace...and stuff...

Sallete starts at I5.

by Kurio Tue Nov 13, 2012 8:53 pm

Vanessa starts at cell J-5

Vanessa said nothing the entire time they were in the sewers, still unhappy at the fact that Sallete was getting so close to the others. She only followed, and watched as the others spoke. Then creatures, rather grotesque looking ones, made their hostile presence known to the group. Vanessa powered up her cannon and suit, getting ready for the obvious battle ahead. Focus on the battle. No time to be sulking now Vanessa.

Rothaire was in the sewers, killing lizards for loot and items. "It stinks down here," Rothaire thought. "not as bad as some of the things I have to put up with on the seas, though." She chuckled to herself. She kept killing lizards, getting more gold and loot.
She heard voices in the sewer, which left her wondering who else could be down here.

Rothaire starts at cell J-8

by Durn Wed Nov 14, 2012 9:10 pm

Jacqueline starts at I8.

Jacqueline's ears perked with excitement when she heard a young man who spoke of earth magic, "What?! I thought I was the only earth specialist around here! All of the others are interested in their fancy machines and air magic!" She twirled and cawed at the man, nearly tumbling into him as she stumbled up from the algae she had been inspecting. "Your assistance would be much appreciated, Mr. Earth Man! The Bogscale have a tendency to be quite resilient, and I'm sure your magic would help us take em' down!" The young botanist remarked, in the general direction of both of the newcomers.

Actually, after quite a long inspection, entirely disinterested in the Bogscale, Jacqueline observed that Jojo and the buccaneer-ish fellow were not entering the sewer together. The thought had popped into her mind about whether or not the two had registered offensive Cantus usage, which Jacqueline and her old crew had acquired by registering for a community job. That thought, however, plopped back into the recesses of Jacqueline's mind as her focus moved back to the lizards. Registration could wait until later. For now, they fought!

Jojo grinned, and nodded at the girl, enjoying her enthusiasm. "I'm always happy to help!" Sucking thoughtfully on his teeth, he decided that he would risk summoning up one of the hardest Elements to master and control. It had a will of it's own, and it always built up and brought down things. Unless Water had a motive, it could be just as destructive as Fire. Fire doesn't care about the circumstances, it could be down pouring and the fire would just turn the water into steam.

"Kindle these flames, change the tides, rock the pillars of foundation.. So now I beg of you, blow Winds, blow!" As Jojo invokes the Element of Air into one of his orbs, he already begins the second Invoking. "Blazing flame, Crackling fire, The quickened pulse of heart's desire. Let no man or or beast, keep you tame!" The second orb began to shine an incredible shade oh bright orange, before kindling into a nice shade of red, flickering every moment or so.

Jojo casted Channel Air/Fire
50% of his maximum CE
15/30 CE remaining

As the Invoking finished, from the northern side of the tunnel, came a fresh blast of air, not smelling foul in the least bit and almost energizing everyone in the tunnel. Small wisps of air swirled at everyone's feet encouraging them to take another step, and that the Northern Wind had their backs.

The party gains 1 extra cell movement!

From the southern side of the tunnel came a roaring blast of hot air, though no physical manifestation was there, the tunnel glowed a bright red. As the warmth from the tunnel once again began to become cold, you began to feel a very warm spot, begin to slightly expand until it coursed through your body. Your body taking an almost orange glow to it as your muscles begged to be tested, and your brain was screaming for adrenaline.

The Party gains 10% extra STR and INT!

Slumping down as he fought to keep the two opposites at bay, he decided that waiting to see what the enemy would do first would be the smarter plan. "I've done all I can for now, show me what you've got guys!" He shouted out, almost maniacally.

Jojo waits.

Karmen uses Whitest Down! [Shifts to White Form][White Abilities enabled]

"I think I can manage to keep my eyes on you, but I'm certainly not up to my old tricks this time," Karmen said with a laugh, a genuine smile forming on his face. Angie had definitely made him feel better now, and he was only slightly perturbed by the arrival of the two new people--one male and one female. It seemed both of them had already been perusing the sewers for some ungodly reason. What kind of people spent their spare time down here anyway? Regardless, Karmen shrugged that off. He wasn't too keen on rushing into the fray, nor was he keen to just do nothing. Waving a hand through the air, the aura around him seemed to flicker as a candle flame does before becoming entirely extinguished, the birds cawing as they vanished from sight. A moment passed before a white aura completely enveloped the ornithologist from below in a mighty burst before lowering to the size of the previous aura. Two beautiful, radiant doves formed on his shoulder, each singing a glorious song. Karmen's typically black robes had also turned white.

Karmen uses Banner! Karmen, Angie, Dirge, Vanessa, and Sallete are affected! [Bestows Bravery]

CE: 16/30

Karmen could hear the new guy call out something about them showing him what they had. While he figured that was unnecessary, he had already decided that he wasn't going to stand around and do nothing. He raised a hand into the air. "Look above, there will be the symbol of hope," he said nonchalantly as his doves took off into the air, flying closely together before spreading out, a golden sparkling banner unfolding between them until it was perfectly taut, the ancient writing inscribed upon it essentially pouring out courage and morale upon those closest to the glorious sight. It only lasted a few moments before both birds and the banner burst into white flame, two more doves materializing on Karmen's shoulders from the white aura surrounding him.

Karmen winced as he remembered something that Dirge had said about meeting him and Angie under normal circumstances. Guess that would be nice; normal really doesn't define this day at all, he thought, keeping his eyes focused on the enemies ahead.

Karmen waits.

by Allindur, the Lightfoot Thu Nov 15, 2012 10:13 am

Before Sallete could do anything, Karmen and one of the new people summoned their Cantus. A mixture of feelings overwhelmed the engineer. She felt a surge of valor, the will to do great things and change the world. At the same time, a burning flame seemed to light up inside her heart, and a freshness pushed her forward. She wanted to run, to fight, to prove herself.

All that mixed to Sally's naturally over-excitement and love for battle had an...unforseen effect.

-All right, it's time to KICK. SOME. EFFING. BEHINDS! Fighters, behind me!

She rushed forward, Amaranth cutting open a track on the ground.Fixating on the first enemy she could see, the girl finished her path with a large somesault, spinning the gigantic blade on an overhead slash. A few crackes marked the ground under the fly after the assault.

Sallete moves to F4.

Dirge bit her lip as she noticed Karmen wince at her comment. Had she said the wrong thing? Before she could put proper thought into it, however, she was forced to beginning playing. Her enemies would not sit still and wait for her to sort out personal issues. Doing her best to forget about the reaction to her request, the violinist raised her bow arm and began to a rapid succession of melodies. Energy within her began to build and she suddenly found herself wanting more.

More she would get.

"I don't understand what's going on, but I think I like this," Angie said, feeling some odd power wash over her. It seemed to come from one of the strange arrivals. The other one she knew through Nessa and Sally, though didn't really talk to the girl much. Her name was...Rothaire? Angie didn't really have a nickname for the girl, she didn't know her too well.

Angie felt another presence now, one that she recognized all too well. It was Karmen, of course. He was in his White Form. "You know Karmen, you should wear white more often," Angie said, grinning back at her friend. "You're much cuter that way, though I admit the black does give you a mysterious appeal."

Angie moves to H-4

"Here, have one of these!" Angie grinned, placing her gloved hands on the ground and channeling her energy. She quickly found the proper ingredients and lifted her hands slowly, pulling the material out of the ground through black tendrils. These tendrils were what she called her Cantus Mineral Detectors, they allowed her to "see" underground and pull up material in it's raw form. When she pressed her hands together around the sphere of material, the black Cantus Mineral Detectors (or CMD for short), exploded from the reaction and covered everything around her in soot.

Angie's beautiful white hair was going to turn grey again. She didn't mind though. Dirty limbs and hair felt just as homely to her as clean ones. Angie pulled her hand back and tossed the grenade forward, attaching her CMD to provide the reaction at the appropriate time. When it exploded, fly guts went everywhere. Angie did all this in just a few seconds.

From behind her friend Vanessa watched her charge into the group of enemies. She felt some sort of energy empowering her, however it didn't seem to do all that much. She took a capsule and loaded her cannon, giving herself a moment to take aim at the creature Sallete attacked. She would provide support fire for her friend.

by Ritual Sun Nov 18, 2012 8:13 pm

Rothaire saw a group of women and one strange man about to fight some enemies. She figured she would help them to fight these monsteres. "I haven't ever seen this monster before," she thought, looking at the giant fly. "I wonder how hard it is to kill."
She glanced at the "allies" that were around her, wondering their strengths. She saw them charging into the enemy, so she decided to go in too.

Rothaire moves to H-7

"Not only are you capable of manipulating the element of earth," Jacqueline turned toward the mysterious dancer, eyes widened as she marveled his skill, "you are also able to dance with the element of fire?!" She jumped upward, possibly by reflex, as she continued to gaze at the dancer and his ~~marvelous midriff~~ elemental orbs.

"In that case," Jacqueline held her palm in front of her, in the midst of which a lavender rose bloomed, "wait until you can see what I can do! You watch me too, Sal!" Almost as if her own mental will commanded it, the rose burst into flames, and the botanist hurled the flower into the heights of the sewer, causing it to burst into a storming flurry of searing petals, "Cantus, Rosefire!"

"Outta the way, Sally!" Angie barked, touching the ground again with her palms before bringing up a load of material from the ground. This time, she didn't bother trying to contain the explosion of soot, the weapon she was making now was much bigger. The soot expanded everywhere, covering Angie and parts of those poor folk who were around her. She clicked the new weapon and pointed it at the fly.

"Scattershot Rifle!" Angie said with a grin, clicking the trigger and watching bullets pierce through not just the fly, but the creature behind the fly.

She thought to herself, "These.. reptile things don't look that strong. A few more attacks and they should be goners." Rothaire looked at the other person that was around her, and saw her crafting what looked to be a gun. She thought that maybe these people could do something, even stronger than her.

Dirge moves to G4!

She could feel the energy flowing through her; it was exhilarating. Ignoring the oncoming enemies, Dirge repositioned herself in the center of many of them. It was no sooner that she had come to a stop that she was swiftly playing an upbeat, immensely fast-paced tune. There was a strange air of tension to it, and she was sure everyone nearby could feel it.

-Cool move, Jackie! I'll keep it simple for now. At least until Amaranth's engine is overheated.

Sallete was quick to spin out of the Angie's way. The girl sure didn't seem like she was going to suffer to much over hitting Sally accidentaly. The engineer followed her path along to the farmost enemy, spining and hitting it on the middle of it's back with her huge blade.

-Hey, look, a bag! Someone should get it. I know I'm too busy to do it! SLAAAAASH!

Sallete moves to D5.

Vanessa moves to cell H-4

Vanessa kept her eyes on Sallete while she loaded her cannon. She seemed to have completely forgotten her own existence as her attention seemed to be completely focused on Jacqueline. Vanessa let out a very quiet sigh and then mentally slapped herself. She couldn't let this take her attention off what's actually important right now, taking out these sewer creatures.

Whatever that empowered feeling she got, though it didn't seem to do much for herself it seemed to be quite useful to the others around her. Vanessa stepped to where Angie had been just a moment before and held her cannon using her left hand to support its weight as she aimed for the enemy farthest from her. Then she fired a powerful shot, hopefully the aftershock from the impact would incapacitate it even if it would only be for a brief moment.

Vanessa attacks Bogscale Stalker (5). 11 INT Dmg. Chance of Stun. If Stun fails +20% damage

Karmen uses Blackest Feather! [Shifts to Black form][Black abilities enabled]

Karmen uses Murder on Bogscale Stalker (1)! 10 Dmg! (INT) [Chance of Bleeding]

MP: 8/30

"Eh," Karmen stated simply, shrugging his shoulders, a subtle smirk on his face as the white started getting devoured by an even darker aura--the one that had surrounded him at the very start of the battle. The doves that rematerialized on his shoulders were ripped to shreds, and from their charred remains, black ravens formed, perching themselves upon Karmen's shoulders where the doves once rested. His robes became black again as well. "White is impractical. You know I like black more," he added nonchalantly, sending a simple glance at the stalker that had been so brazen as to attack him. Dirge seemed to be giving it hell, so Karmen was determined to put in an end to it, and the powers of light weren't going to allow him to exact his vengeance upon the monster. As he raised a hand, he recalled the newest female's question in regards to who they all were, granted the question worked both ways. Karmen ignored it and instead focused on directing his Cantus such that a fierce dark wind started up, and from the blackened streams of air, crows emerged, flapping about and surrounding the target bogscale stalker.

Karmen merely spectated as the crows drew closer and closer, surrounding the stalker completely before beating it with their wings, clawing at any spot spots with their talons while pecking the creature to death with their sharp beaks. Just as quickly as the crows had come, so too did they vanish back into the dark wind which wasted no time in dissipating completely. The ornithologist remained satisfied with his work; his Cantus was a difficult one to control. He had a lot to manage, and not many realized that mostly because of the Cantus usage limitations and such. Only Jacqueline, and now the rest of the group, had witnessed his abilities to their full and unique extent. The others used their Cantus in interesting ways as well, Karmen had to admit. A smirk now formed upon his face as he stayed wary; it wasn't like this task was a walk in the park, after all.

Karmen waits.

Jojo moves to J-8!

With all these monsters around and his bad armor, he wasn't exactly sure how much he could take before he bled out. Better safe than sorry, in his mind. Looking for an opportune moment to cast his Northern Wind spell, he kept his eye out, and waited behind the girl..or was she a woman? That seemed so interested in him.

Jojo waits.

Jacqueline casts Rosefire on Bogscale Stalker (3)! 9 INT damage! -12 CE!
CE: 6 / 30

Jacqueline waits.

"Cantus, Rosefire!" Jacqueline continued to chant, proceeding to fire another flurry of ignited petals at a nearby Bogscale. Despite her efforts, however, the serpent leapt straight through her wall of flame and struck her in the lower left torso, claw outstretched and drenched with a bloodthirsty desire to kill. Jacqueline cringed as the reptile made contact with her flesh, yet became no less resilient and persistent when it came to slaying the foul monster.

Vanessa moves to cell F-3

Her target went down through the combined efforts of her two friends, so Vanessa turned her attention to a different creature. More specifically the one that had just attacked her and that girl named Dirge. The combat engineer moved off to the side so she could step past the violin girl and positioned herself rather close to the creature. The used capsule popped out and Vanessa quickly reloaded her cannon, then pointing the barrel at point blank range of the reptilian creature's head she did not even wait a moment to fire.

Angie rolled forward, keeping her rifle close to her chest as she got back up on her feet. Automatically in a crouching position, Angie spun her body around to face two of the disgusting creatures, one hand holding her rifle pointed at them, the other grazing the ground as she quickly pumped her Cantus into the earth and pulled out several bullet-shaped wades that exploded just like her grenades did.

Angie quickly reloaded her rifle and aimed directly at the beast before firing, making sure her shots wouldn't graze the humans nearby, though her feelings for them were less than acceptable. Rothair was okay though, Angie knew him a little bit. He was mostly friends with Nessa and Sally though. Jaqueline? Angie hardly cared about her.

Dirge moves to G6!

Dirge said nothing as the enemies that had surrounded her dropped like... well flies–no pun intended. There was a small glimmer of a smile though. It lasted only a moment before her visage returned to its usual stoicalness. She moved quickly into a better position her heels clicking against the ground beneath her, echoing slightly as she came to a halt. She lifted her bow to her instrument once more, but this time only played three movements of the song she had earlier. The effects were the same.
