Topic: The Crimson Crusaders
Subject: Brenys


Unincluded from the shamans plans that meant Brenys could relax sitting down, fiddling with her new found coins. Maybe her actions of stealng were not accepted amongst these brave heroes. Well she was no brave hero she had no choice to be there andwanted to make the best out of an awful situation.

Studying everyone curiously, they all were busy with their assignments and it appeared the shaman had become the leader of this group of valiant crusaders. Brenys was happy with this though had no thoughts to follow the shaman directly she was her own woman and that was how it would stay.

Subject: AMBUSH!!!


Brenys gave a quick prayer to coyote thanking her for the protection, thoughts were swirling through her head. She had to gather her thoughts, firstly she searched the two bodies of the lusting males in front of her, finding their gold quickly, she would have taken it even if they were alive.

Then seeing a fallen crusader she went over to help, staying low fearing another ambush, she whispered a few words into her ear “stay strong the gods will come through for you.” She shouted for assistance from someone with healing capabilities. Hoping someone on board would be able to help, all she could do is wait.

Topic: The Crimson Crusaders
Subject: Brenys Darkeyes


Born in a place little better than a slum, Brenys quickly had to learn how to fend for herself. Both her mother and father were sick with disease, by the age of 10 her mother had died and her father was bed bound. With no income and highly malnourished Brenys had to find a way to make money to live. Every morning Brenys would wake up at dawn and rain with two swords made of wood and carved by herself, at mid-morning she would travel to Ratsdorf with her dads bronze dagger in case things got nasty, as in her business things could. Brenys is not the usual pick pocketer however, as she would play tricks using dice, cards and other gambling games. On a normal working day Brenys would make enough money to feed herself and her father and just get by, however some days Brenys would make a little more, she would put this to one side as she knew one day she would be by herself, with no place to live and no place to go.



By the time Brenys reached the age of 13 her dad had passed away to begin with Brenys travelled to Ratsdorf after the funeral and set up her own stall using the money she had saved as she knew it was a wise investment. Being an attractive girl she knew she could attract punters and using the stall as shelter at night wasn't ideal and was often scary. Soon Brenys began to save up more and more and was beginning to get a reputation in the city, but it wasn't always a good reputation. One particular punter was upset with his loss on a quite an elaborate bet and raised his hand to Brenys, before he could bring the hand down Brenys caught his hand and put him in a lock he couldn't break, humiliated he walked away with threats of torching the stand that very night. She worked for the rest of the day until an hour before sunset, she had some errands to run.




Using her savings she went to buy a weeks rations, a tent and bedroll, fortunately there had been interest of buying the stall, Brenys travelled to the Businessman's house to make an offer. After 10 minutes of bargaining a fair deal had been struck, Brenys was chuffed full knowing that it was getting ruined tonight. Her next stop was the arms store to buy 3 daggers and 2 short swords and whetstone.



After her purchases she still had a sizeable amount of coin, protection and materials to live off of, however she knew she had to live off the land and who knew what dangers lay ahead of her.



On her travel to a new city each night she would have a dream which seemed more of a vision as, the story changed each night but the one character who told it was always the same a woman that changed in and out of a coyote form. On the 5th night she awoke with a start, and realised who was haunting her it was the coyote deity, her own favourite god, she was chosen by her. On the 7th day as she sat to have her last meal she fainted and a vision struck her and told her to travel to Heimstadt. When she awoke an armband was laid on her lap with the picture of a coyote on it, immediately she put it on.



After her meal she headed off to Heimstadt ready for her challenge and quest.
On the 8th day of travel Brenys stopped at a hamlet named Odenstein, here she stocked up on rations and repaired equipment. As she hadn't slept in a comfortable bed for the past seven nights, and her purse was still bulging, so a treat was in order. Brenys went to bed early that night, after 4 hours of sleep she was rudely awakened by a banging on her door, and shouting from the hallway “GET UP! GET UP! WE'RE UNDER ATTACK.” Immediately Brenys jumped out of bed she had always been a light sleeper, putting on her garments and grabbing her weapons she opened the door.



Running out of the Inn the humble she had seen just hours before was a wreck with fire burning on the majority of straw huts, quickly Brenys ran back into the inn and into her room took her equipment and went back outside. Brenys was no hero she wasn't going to risk her life to save the village or any other life, using her skills in hiding and moving silently she stealthed her way out of the village. Then she bolted N-E to the woods on the way to Heimstadt hoping she wouldn't meet the warband that had destroyed the village.



Fortunately they obviously were based in the woods to the west. Brenys was glad of the decision she made without a shred of doubt in her mind. That night she moved during the night and the rest of the next day, as she was too scared to be near the scene that she had just witnessed.



As Brenys exited the woods she was only two days away or one day and night of travel, it was a big choice to make. It was more or less open ground all the way to Heimstadt it would be tricky to set up a camp somewhere without being vulnerable, however Brenys would be just as vulnerable travelling on foot to the monsters of the dark.



The decision she made ended up to be to soldier through the night, knowing she could use her skills at hiding or if need be put her weapon training to the test. Once she was almost halfway to Heimstadt, aiming to get there at dawn, she saw two shapes move against the background, they were coming her way, she readied herself checking she could draw both of her swords. She tensed not knowing what was about to happen, as the shapes came nearer it appeared they were hostile this is largely because of they're green skin and yellow teeth as they approached she could see they're apparel and weaponry they were shoddily armoured and armed with both carrying only a rusted shortsword, although Brenys thought that she could defeat them she would prefer not to fight. However it looked as though a fight would ensue, Brenys took the initiative and crouched low waiting for them to come to her, she saw them upping there pace as they got closer. Then she sprung leaping into one, a fatal blow, the second one seemed far more confident then he attacked he was fast, really fast, this is a perfect test for her, a first fight, a rite of passage. Brenys parried, ducked and dived, looking for a weakness. As the duel carried on she was getting weary especially since she had no sleep that night, a thought dawned on her, suddenly she dropped everything apart from the sling and ammo she had, she sprinted towards a group of trees, knowing she had to either hide or climb to give her any chance of survival. She got to the group of trees and she could see the city there it was 'Heimstadt.' she bolted using the remainder of her stamina and strength, Brenys glanced back there was no sign of her aggressor. She didn't slow if anything she picked up speed as the city grew closer.



She had made it just as the gate opened for the traders at dawn. Once she was safe she had to re-evaluate her situation, she had her purse however not much remained inside, the only weapon she had was a sling and her fathers dagger, once again her situation looked dire. She knew no-one and knew nothing of this city, her first aim was to get food and a bed at the nearest inn.



At the Bedstock Inn is where she had ended up a warm meal and looked as though the company was friendly, after her meal and a room for 24 hours her money was dwindling. Brenys decided to sleep in the room she had just rented. As she slept another dream came to her the coyote was there again and there were pictures of a strange city, a ship with a ruby sail and a strange bunch of warriors, Botkinburg is where she was headed next.



Using the last of her coin she bought her way onto a cartel of traders travelling to Asperdi. Finally a direction to go again.



Once in Asperdi she thanked the merchants, and said her goodbyes she had made some friends and some enemies on the long journey, a few were clever enough not to bet against brenys' games, and the long journey let her make some coin back, however there was not a fortune in her purse. Then she saw it her calling... a call for crusaders. Brenys headed off following the signs that directed her too a man named Gideon. Then she saw it the stall was grand unlike her shoddy excuse for one back in Ratsdorf. Then she saw a strikingly good looking man sitting at it. She went over and spoke to the man about what the quest entails, and payment. Gideon answered dutifully and there she was signing up for a fools mission on a ruby boat. Still it was good money and what is the point in life without taking risks.



Later on that week she was ready standing in the cockpit of the Ruby boat and that's when it hit her, she missed her parents, her first house, her small stall in Ratsdorf, but there was no chance of that now. Brenys pushed the sadness back, preparing herself for the voyage and adventure ahead.

Topic: Interregnum: Tainted Nobility
Subject: Sonny


Sonny was gratified he had no idea he was such a prominent musician for all he knew he was a travelling bard not a famous performer. What Sonny couldn't understand was what part he had to play in this saga was he to write the story of this travel, he had little skill with a bow or sword and was not a fighter by heart.

"So my lord, which part do i play in this theatric story i am guessing it is my ability with a Sword that impresses you most?" Sonny said this with a cheeky smile on his face letting the king know he was joking.

"As for the song here we go" (Through the fire and flames) (Dragonforce)

Subject: Dracone


Pondering on what his fellows were saying, he thought to himself 'these people may come to like me especially if i become part of a team' Silly idea! things never worked out like that but he could at least try it.

Then he spoke up "I am happy to do this, i trust this man and any of you guys got anything better to do lets help this poor man and potentially make some money."

Then he sunk back hoping at least one of the others would agree with him.

Subject: Dracone


This wasn't a good place for Dracone lots of humies, meant lots of danger so he hoisted his coat tight and flicked his hood over his face. Years of persecution left him with no trust for these loathsome humans, but he saw something that for some reason made him tingle this was a sign of adventure.

Dracone hastened his pace and was almost jogging as he moved towards the stand it was ordinary but extremely odd. As he got there fear spread through his body at the sight of the mustached man, big muscular sword wielding humies, the worst kind. Still he joined the group that was waitng there.

Then a scrawny man who looked little less than a skeleton this man looked as though not much much was going his way he owned a distinctly average stall and seemed like he failed at even the most menial of tasks as Dracone thought this there it was SPLAT! he faceplanted into the mud.

Dracone thought about the humies once again how could they all be so different one muscly and resouloute others scrawny and jittery where he come from he was the most unique being in centuries and still he was fairly normal, if he was human.

As the scrawny man asked his question he hung back and let the others have their say Dracone must be cautu=ious he had learnt that ten times over and thats in the last week.

Sonny was still in awe of the great wonders that he had just seen, so it took him a second to react to the gnome standing before him. “Yes..Yes, thanks very much good sir, a song on the way? Pick your favourite master gnome.” Quickly Sonny casts summon instrument and a ukulele is into his hands, this was all for show of course that was what Sonny was about.

On they went humming along to the tune (5 Years time, Noah and the Whale). The song made him think, this meeting with king firmly meant good news or bad news very bad news. But Sonny was always optimistic, so carried on strumming amusing the gnome by his side, Sonny vanished the Ukulele, and started telling jokes, such as “have you heard the latest crisis – Dwarf shortage.” The gnome didn’t take to kindly to that being not of the tallest himself.

After a good ten minutes of singing and joking Sonny saw it the Illustrious. It was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen, even the water around the boat seemed to glisten more than normal, then he saw the king now what does one say to royalty this awkwardness could not be surpassed by the usual music or jokes routine, it was time to be serious, Sonny didn’t like that thought much.
