Ares calls one of his elementals to practise using his new scythe with.

 

He also claims 50 more gold for getting level 6 dark magic.

Ares scythes though one of the elementals.

+.2 farming

Farming :blink:

 

Then again, I have no idea what I'd call combat with a scythe, either.

 

Ares resummons the light elemental.

What did the (W) mean after the 0.3?

 

Umbra practices swordsman ship with the town militia

Ares wonders if he can use the scythe as a staff as well.

Umbra asks around town for any task a citizen might need doing

Ares-

Not really...the big blade unbalances it.

Umbra-

The town archery association has heard about a wild animal the size of a tree and wonders if you would escort them and help fight the beast with them.

Umbra accepts

 

He uses the shadow gate to summon a few shadow tendrils and a dark elemental

 

and shields himself with a dark and shadow shield

 

and then escorts the achers

Eh, scythe is for awesomeness factor then I guess.

 

Ares asks if he can follow Umbra.

Umbra-

The Association wants to do most of the fighting, but has heard that the beast has numerous thralls.

 

You arrive near the clearing and the Association prepares themselves to fight the beast.

Come along Ares, the more the merrier

Ares flies up about 20 feet, and starts targeting the minions with javelins of light.

Umbra orders his shadow tendrils to bind as many thralls as possible, he then begins to attack them with a mix between shadow dark and swordmanship

Ares fails to take off.

Umbra-

You bind the five thralls, two of which escape and attack you, mortally wounding you.

 

 

The archers do some limited damage.

The beast roars and attacks Ares, doing some damage.

Ares tries to fly up and launch spears of light at the thralls attacking Umbra.

If he fails to take off, he'll just throw his scythe at them like a boomerang.

Umbra orders the shadow tendrils to form a sphere around me and take me to a safe distance

Ares strains his wings and cannot take off for some time.

Umbra- The Association beings to panic as you make moves to withdraw, but the shadow fail to protect you or carry you.

 

The Association does a little more damage to the beast.

Another of the Thralls breaks free, and together the thralls managed to kill you and some of the association members. -2.3 Skill points.

The members begin to panic, turning to Ares to protect them.

However Ares is attacked by he beast, becoming mortally wounded.

Ares activates his mask, yells to the association to run for it, telling them he'll try to be a decoy, shoots a bolt of light at the monster's face to get its attention and blind/hurt/kill it, and then runs in the opposite direction.
