Topic: Diabolic Genesis-Origins of Evil
Subject: The boy


The boy stands on his own and says to Seluumiel, "My name is Johnathon Miles Karris. You can call me John."
John then takes notice of the exchange between Lacey and Chiron. "Doesn't the man like the other pretty woman. Why are they arguing?"

Seluumiel smiles at John's human name and turns to Satya and asked her to keep an eye on John for a moment.

During the lengthy discussion between Chiron, Ardulace, and Seluumiel, Satya began to talk to the boy to distract him from the discussion. But everytime the word "Dragon" was mentioned the boy flenched and became visibly disturbed. Seeing this and incredulous of the seemingly continuous fighting amongst themselves and Xavier just sitting back and taking it all in, Satya decides to step up and voice her objections.

"Why do you insist on tormenting each other with these games!......This can wait."

"Would you like to go home and see your mother? I am sure that she is missing you very much."

So after addressing the the group on the issue and reminding them of the need to get the child home, she begins to take the child in the direction of the town of Leaphaven.

Subject: The child awakens


Seluumiel breathes a prayer over the boy, pleading with her god to heal the child and restore him to his former childish exuberance.

The boy's eyes flutter and he stirs. He then opens his eyes wide to the beauty that is Seluumiel and he asks, "Are you an angel, pretty lady?"

Subject: Lacey's actions after chiron left.


Nimble as she is, Lacey struggles to her feet. Curious as to the location of the dragon, she quickly opens the acid burned door to see not a dragon but ogres ready for battle. As they ready themselves to toss their throwing axes at the intruder, Lacey slams the door shut and on the move towards the front door and the exit, she puts her hat back on to revert back to Lacey the half elf. With that, she exits the house just in time, before it fades away to nothingness once again leaving nothing more than that of a glowing effect similar to fireflies, and still the faint sound of wind chimes is in the air.

Topic: Diabolic Genesis-Origins of Evil Q&A
Subject: Curious?


Are you curious as to what happened to lacey during her absence?......

Meanwhile, Lacey stepped into one archway and exited leaving a similar archway behind her as she wondered into a similar room to the one she left. One difference stood out. In the middle of the room was a juvenile black dragon, and between the dragon and Lacey was a little boy of about 10 years of age, pale and passed out, most likely from fright. As the dragon, which is as tall as Lacey standing but twice as long from head to tail tip, turned to see who the intruder was, she caught a glimpse of a door similar to the one she entered earlier in the room before.
With the exception of the room's inhabitants , the room appeared to be identical to the one she left behind. The walls reflected and diffused the light from the archway radiating from behind her. "I'm still in the house!" thought Lacey. She began to get the impression from the way she found the dragon facing away from her, that the black dragon was going to attempt an attack on her commrades.

Lacey drops into a formal curtsey before the dragon, "Greetings O' Noble Wyrm."

The dragon senses a new presence within the room and turns to face it, with acidic drool dripping from her jaws and an evil glare in her eyes. "Treacherous witch! I know why you are here...I know why you are all here! You will not take my prize, halfbreed! None of you will! It would do you good to leave whilst you can through the way you came, its your choice! Save yourself, or die trying to be a hero!", the hiddeous specimen of a black dragon hissed venomously."

Lacey smiles at the dragon, and speaks softly. "Halfbreed? I am no halfbreed." At this, she removes her Hat of Disguise, and tucks it into her belt to reveal herself to the dragon. "Behold my true self... not so different from thee, O' noble Wyrm, if not so grand."

Lacey gestures down at the child on the floor. "And this... this mewling thing, this spawn of man...this is your prize? 'Tis hardly fitting for thee. For sooth, I am shocked that thou wouldst allow such a thing to besmirch the very room which thou grace."

She wrinkles her nose as she looks at the child, hoping the dragon can smell the urine on the child. "It has even soiled itself. Truly this is no prize fit for a being as grand as thou art."

The dragon's expression, if you can call it that, somewhat softened toward Lacey, now Ardulace. She no longer seemed bent on destroying her flatterer.
"You may not be a halfbreed, but you are not a dragon and therefore do not know the suculant taste of human to the plain everyday taste of cattle. Now, If you prize the child more than I, we both know you cannot beat me in a fight alone, so I propose a trade. But be warned, your first offer better be your best offer, for if it satiates me not, you may not make it out of here alive. So what will it be, Drow? Will you barter or run?"

Ardulace props her chin in one hand and ponders. "Thou speaketh truly, I am not a dragon as thou well know. Yet while thou might enjoy the taste of their flesh, perhaps thou hast not spent time amongst the humans as have I, and perhaps their ways are foreign to thee. Know this, O' Noble Wyrm, the humans will come for thee and though they are small and weak, they will come in great numbers. And even as a pack of jackals might bring down the mightiest lion, so they shall assail thee...." she pauses to lend emphasis to her words, "... if they learn of thy presence here."

She gestures to the walls around her "This house, through magics of which I know little has appeared in a human realm, and as a result this child stumbled into thy domain. Let me have the child, release it free and unharmed, the humans will be appeased. If thou art able, return this house to its proper place, and thou need not endure the slings and arrows of the humans pestering thee as a swarm of gnats."

Her voice begins to grow more passionate as she continues.
"Rest assured if thou fall to the temptation of a single succulent morsel, they will come. They will come in ever increasing numbers, for they breed like rabbits and swarm like insects, as my own people know, they will come, and come again and never stop. Thou may defeat me with ease, and perhaps when the humans send more to discover my fate, thou might slay them, but more will come and word will spread. Then they will come not to free a single child, but to slay thee and steal thy treasure. The greed of the humans is insatiable, their numbers legion, and they are too stupid to know fear."

She pauses a moment, her voice now soft and soothing. "Peace. Peace will be thine if thou grant me this child, this mere stripling."


"And if thou crave not peace, if thou truly seek more flesh to devour, grant me this child and I shall return whence I came, and spread word of thee and thy glory, and the humans shall come from far and near to gaze upon thee and thou might slay them and feast upon them as the wolf upon the sheep. But know this, O' Mighty One, that road is perilous indeed for amongst the humans dwell heroes, dim of mind but strong of body, who shall come to slay thee. While the wolf may grow fat and sleek dining upon the timid sheep,he must ever beware the shepherd."

"If this is what thou crave, so be it. Grant me this child and I shall go, to remain silent or trumpet thy glory as thou choose."

"Peace?.... Peace is not a word in MY master's plans. However, my being here was a mistake, I stumbled upon this house from my home realm through a portal my master ordered built."

The dragon approaches the child and picks it up and hands it to the drowess.
"Exit post haste by yonder door to your world whilst I will exit by this portal. Quickly before I change my mind."
The black dragon does move to the side to let Lacey pass and begins slowly lumbering for the portal.
"You do what thou willst, Dark Elf. Witherist I go, My master and his legacy are the wolves there, and you are the sheep, and there are no sheapards!"

As she began to open the door, Lacey hears the raspy but feminine voice of the dragon from behind saying, "Don't worry yourself with telling your associates your story. I can do my own herolding and you...you will PAY for your intrudence!"

With that the she-dragon launches a thin stream of acid at Lacey's back. The dragon's voice can be heard fading away as she enters into the portal saying, "Pray you never see me again!"

A door knob belonging to the door furthest to the right begins to twist and the door becomes ajar. Suddenly the figure of a woman carrying something becomes vaguely visible. An omnious white glow from the back of the figure gave only a glimpse of her dark silloette. A sudden splash of acid burns at the door and a familiar voice screams out in pain.

Topic: Peradyse Lost
Subject: exhilarating and strange.....


This feeling, Devon knew not what it was, for it was as alien to him as this world. Winter in Genesica, cold season flowers crisp smelling like the mint his mom put in his tea, and a peacefull time. Peace, a feeling he hadn't felt in a very long age, a time when many of the creatures his people fought were struggling just to survive or in hibernation. His people didn't travel during this season. They stayed within the town walls and had festivals and feasts and celebrated this peaceful time.

That is what Devon felt while in this green aura. All negativity left his mind, and in its place, a feeling of great contentment and happiness, that he hadn't felt since before Wolvertain killed his parents, washed over him and he felt strong spiritually again.

to nimu- yes it was more of an assumption on my part, you in one of your posts said "lets get the hell out of here" and with Satya taking the child out of the house I assumed you would follow. Sorry if i assume too much.

ROFLMFAO The situation between Lacey and Chiron bring such a hilarious mental picture to mind, I can't help but laugh (Lacey gets flattened and as pay back plants a big one on her assailant. A knight being kissed by a drowess.)

Subject: Chaos unleashed.....


Chiron went into action where few seemed to want to. Everyone was concerned with the welfare of the child. Lacey worked to heal the child. Seluumiel approached to assist. Satya felt it best to confiscate the boy from the apparent stranger and get the hell out of that freaky house. However, in all the chaos, Chiron interpretted the fiasco as a dogpile on the drow and decided that was his chance to act as he ran foward with shield out in front and bull rushed Lacey trying to push her out and get out himself. He failed in the attempt, only gaining a insignificant amount of ground, bringing himself and Lacey only ten feet away from the improvised door wedge holding the front door open.

Satya, Seluumiel, and Xavier made it out with the boy, while Lacey and Chiron still remain sprawled on the floor. Things seem to be getting worse. The inside of the house stays the same as the table "door wedge", the door and the patio steps with ornate columns all seems to be on the verge of fading away. Or, was it the house fading away with them inside?

the same door the woman is coming out of is the same one that has been acid burned. The woman can't be identified yet because the room is bright with light and what you all see is a sliver of a siloette.

An omnious white glow from the back of the figure gave only a glimpse of her dark silloette. A sudden splash of acid burns at the door and a familiar voice screams out in pain.

An unfamiliar raspy feminine voice can be heard coming from deeper in the now semi-open room, trailing off into nothingness saying,"Pray we never meet again..."

Topic: Diabolic Genesis-Origins of Evil
Subject: The Book of Unwritten Chonicles


The remainder of the group took a look and the book that gained Seluumiel's attention. Considering the magic nature of the book, and what everyone expected of the two items that were displayed so prominently on the table, they were surprised at the seemingly mundane nature of the writing. The one disturbing thing was that, what was said in the writing made one assume that they were expected.

There was nothing especially interesting or eye catching about the map. It appeared to be just that, a map. A map of an unknown land.

The book, however, is a slightly different story. When Seluumiel opened the book, only the first page was printed in common with this passage:

“All others have failed and I was the last. My spirit is bound here for my time is past.

Unspeakable evil lies behind each door. Take care you don’t end up like others before.

Five colors, five heads is all I know of your fate. If you must know more, ask the guardian of the gate.

To what I have written you must take heed and I will record your actions, your words and your deeds.

For in you must go. There’s no way to turn back. Defeat your greatest foe before he attacks.”

The book begins to print itself "Are such adventurers present and ready to undertake this task?"

Subject: Dragons, dragons everywhere......


Devon watched silently and out of sorts, the interaction between his new found comrades and the miniature dragons.
He was a bit confused and bewildered about the red one named Flame. Where he was from, red dragons were evil and as far as he was concerned to be killed on sight. This one, however, seemed to be known and friendly to his companions. Well, he at least had a hand in saving Flame's friend. Seems like a week for firsts. First elves then dragons (well small ones anyway). His predjustices were being brought down one by one.

"Is the female dragon going to be all right? Briana, is Flame alright? And what are we going to do about this carcass? This one was pretty young. If nothing else one of his clutch mates or even his mother may catch the scent of this on the air and attempt to avenge his death to win the rights to inherit his horde, territory, and lair."

But Im interested. Right now Im working on a somewhat unique Jeckle/Hyde type character. I would like to experiment with insanity as a character trait. My character is an Apothecary as one personality and a drug using drug dealer as his evil alter ego. Basically he, DR. Sebastian Sablesands, claims loss of memory, and considers his evil side, Tavis Dinklemire, his advesary and thinks Tavis is obsessed with him and trying to ruin his life.

Anywho, Im writing up a background story from scratch 'cause I don't have any evil characters from past games.

Without knowing the nature of the archway, nor where the missing boy is, on a hunch Lacey strikes out on what many would consider a dangerous journey. She stepped through the glow of the archway and disappeared from sight. Only she and the gods that be know where she has wound up.

Chiron took up the lead and started putting the beginnings of a plan together. The table seemed like a good start so he broke it in half to create door wedges. It would seem that, in his head, entrapment was not an option when the fate of the missing boy was at stake and the others seemed to agree with him. However, Lacey took matters into her own hands and created a complication of their mission in a single decision, in a single action. Is she to be given up for lost? Which take precedence now, Lacey or the child? Questions that Chiron, Xavier, Seluumiel, and Satya wrestle with at this moment.

Subject: THE DOOR......DUN DUN DUUUUUUUHN!


Feeling that there was no time to lose, Lacey went to the door indicated by the liquid trail that was almost all but dry and cold by now, to see if the child was in the space behind it. Out reached her hand to the knob and gave it a twist. The door opened to an empty room. Empty with the exception of a bright glowing keystone archway that cast an extreme amount of light on all surfaces.
The stone it was constructed of seemed normal enough. The glowing was coming from the inside of the archway, as if an exessively bright light was passing through fog or smoke contained behind a pane of glass.
Incredulous of her brash actions, The rest of the team stopped what they were doing to join her in case she needed someone to watch her back. Whether or not Xavier's eccentric pep talk had any real effect, only each one of the group in their hearts and minds know, but they did at least agree with him that, though they haven't known each other long, they were a team and potentially friends and they needed to look after one another.
