Roleplay posts: 47 
Age: 36
Physical Description: Standing at 3’2, Ambicat is on the short side, even when compared to most other gnomes. His thin, constantly smirking lips are mostly hidden by a bushy, well-maintained, mustache that connects to a pair of long sideburns. His wheat-colored hair is long and unkempt, covering his ears. He is pale and of about average weight, with very little muscle. His eyes are brown.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: In most circumstances, Ambicat wears a simple green and red farmer’s outfit with a brown cape tied around his neck. The clothes are ragged, although it looks like Ambicat has tried to keep them somewhat presentable, if the patchwork repairs are any indication. On his belt, he carries a sickle with a makeshift extended handle.

Ambicat smirks a bit and gestures towards Hiyama . “I agree with the guy in the dress,” he says, dabbing some sweat off his forehead with his cape, “Though maybe a quick rest is in order,” Considering how much damage these things had caused in one attack, Ambicat shuddered to think about what would happen if they returned. No, these people needed help now, and he was more than willing to provide. And besides, what sort of hero would he be if he didn’t go on suicide missions? |

Ambicat would seem somewhat confused as to why Silas was kneeling to shake his hand. Did he think he was a king? Were gnomes important in these parts? Was he tired? Whatever the reason, Ambicat’s smile would widen a bit as he reaches over to shake the mercenary’s hand. “It’s a pleasure Silas,” Ambicat would reply, giving the man as firm of a handshake as he could muster (which would feel somewhat pitiful to the Silas), “You can call me Ambicat. Although I will have you know that I’m a gnome, not a halfling,” Releasing Silas’ hand, Ambicat would step back and look towards Hiyama and Kaylie Imrahil . Still smiling, he would ask, “So what should we call you two, then?” |

"The name's Hiyama."
He nodded to them both, casually acknowledging greetings with a calm smile. He would extend his hand from his thick, blanketing straw cloak to both Ambicat and Silas in turn, as the handshake he knew to be customary to these lands.
"It's good to meet you two."

Silas squinted at Hiyama momentarily, then shook his hand humbly for he knew it was not the custom in the east.

Physical Description: She has the look of a woman who was once beautiful and maybe still, but years spent fighting and scrounging for survival have all kept her from emphasizing that. Her brown hair is medium-length, hanging down just past her shoulders and commonly has bits of forest debris lodged in it.

"Marshal Kaylie will do just fine for me. Keep up your guard and I will make contact and see if we should proceed or return to the city." She stepped back and touched one finger to the purple gem at her neck, contacting her superiors. " Empress Naoki, the bridges are secured and the bugs seems to have left. They have retreated into a nearby forest, should we pursue them or return to the city to plan against another assault?" |

Empress Naoki
Famous
Roleplay posts: 2,238
Physical Description: =========================
Empress Naoki is a curvaceous woman of average height, indeterminate age, and catlike features. Her hair is a dark auburn, often pulled back into a long braid. Her ears are both soft and fluffy, and her tail is never less than perfectly groomed. Amber eyes glisten in the shadows cast by her hair.
Clothes and Equipment: =========================
Naoki's wardrobe is to her as a frame is to a painting. Sometimes embellished with detail to be attractive in its own right, but never the focus. Usually simple but elegant, tightly fitting and highly revealing, used only to frame the beauty within.
Additionally, Naoki is, when clothed, often adorned with a small collection of accessories. She wears an earring, a brilliant cut amethyst, in her right ear. The silver signet ring of Isra is worn on her left pinky, marking her as High Lady of Isra. Directly adjacent, she wears the golden signet ring of The Isran Empire as its Empress. On the inside of her left thigh, there is a tattoo depicting a rose entwined with tentacles.

They have retreated into a nearby forest, should we pursue them or return to the city to plan against another assault?" Chiming in through the telepathic powers granted by the gem on Kaylie's neck, High Lady Naoki responds, “I would like you to pursue. Others are preparing for another potential attack. An organized team of Enclave sorcerers, supported correctly, hopefully shouldn’t have much trouble against a threat of this sort, but we cannot allow swarms like this to happen again. We will strike a fatal blow as quickly as we are able, but we must first know where to strike. Pursue the beasts, find where they have retreated to. By the time you have, an attack force will be ready.” |

A small cart trundled alongside two dozen elven warriors, wielding long hafted spears, clad in resplendent orange armor, with red helmets that covered most of their face. At their head, a mage rode on a spectacular black horse, robes matching the color of the soldiers marching behind him. The contents of the cart were covered by cloth, but immensely powerful magic of some sort was contained within.

Aegon, dressed in a traveler's cloak, was on the road, walking toward the caravan. His eyes went to work, observing caravan as he approached. Nothing really drew too much of his ire save for the potent magic hidden away in the cart. The cloth hid whatever magic was truly there, but it couldn't hide its presence. As he got closer to the cart he lowered his hood and smiled at the caravan. "Rare to see so many elves in arms on roads, even on the way to Isra," he spoke clearly and with a cheery tone. He didn't want to be seen as a threat. Still if any of the elves were magically inclined they may sense the power building within him. Perhaps even sense the magical orbs that silently floated around him invisible to the naked eye.
A large three headed wolf walked next to him. All three heads stared at the caravan with innocent curiosity.

The mage stepped forward, meeting Aegon's gaze and pulling his own hood down, revealing an impossibly ancient visage, not necessarily by the physical appearance, but by the presence he possessed.
"It is indeed, there are few of us left, and for too long have we kept to ourselves, taking no interest in the outside world. Recent events have convinced us that this policy may not have been for the best, and that there are friends to be found if one looks hard enough. We come from the ancient Elven City of Mithlonde, bearing gifts for the ruler of Isra as well as a chance to start a relationship between our two cities."
The soldiers behind the mage stopped in good fashion, stern looks all they need to keep passerby from getting too close to the cart.

Aegon smiled softly, and looked over the group. "Well, magic artifacts have to be inspected before they enter the city." He eyed the cart heavily, "you never know what they can do." He returned his gaze to mage who spoke, "But since you claim to be friendly," He reached into his coat and produced a Sun Marshal badge, "My name is Aegon, I am a Sun Marshal. You wouldn't mind letting me see what you've got there?"

"You may not. These gifts are for Empress Naoki, and we will not offer disrespect by showing them to you first. You may accompany us, if you feel so inclined, and ensure that we do not anything bad."
He just sounds tired by the questioning, and a bit offended at the assumption that they were transporting dangerous artifacts with hostile intent.

Aegon scowled and put the badge away. "Have you heard of the Tragedy of Aaedan? A magical artifact slowly turned their king mad. He unleashed the artifact's horrible magic on his own people turning them into undead monsters with no will. Its magic tried to spread beyond and threatened every surrounding nation." As he told the story his eyes began to glow orange, "I hope you understand now that any magical artifacts must be inspected before they are allowed to enter Isra."

"No, we have not heard of that. Nor would we be so stupid as to give an artifact that powerful to another nation. But you appear out of no where and demand to inspect the gifts we bring for the Empress, under the guise of a tragedy we have not heard about. You can understand where I would be skeptical. I am supposed to believe that you inspect every single person that comes into this nation bearing any sort of magical item?" He asks, skeptically.
Now that Aegon is closer, if he is skilled in magical detection he would be able to tell that there is numerous magical items in the cart, giving off a variety of different magical auras, none of which possess any significant power on their own. The only notable difference between this cart and the cart of someone who sells magical items is that the magic here seems to be incredibly old, pre-Cataclysm, which has a distinctive note in comparison to modern magic. Functionally the same magic though.

Aegon nodded as the man talked. An expected response. Aegon nodded on final time, "Of course not, but we try. However, you are here to meet our cities. This is our law, but I understand your wariness." Aegon let go of all his magic, his eyes return to their deep blue, "You out number me. There is no way I can fight all of you without my magic. Give me a glance. That is all it will take. I will be able to see their enchantments and you can move forward. I'll even accompany you and no other guards will accost you."
About that time one of his orbs removed its own cloaking and revealed itself to the elf, gem encrusted golden and covered in patterns. An old and powerful artifact that seemed to be inspecting the elf. Then before the elf can react the orb disappeared and drifted away.

The mage thought for a moment, before nodding respectfully at Aegon.
"Very well, you may look, but we will hold you responsible for anything that happens."
One of the soldiers stepped aside to allow Aegon to step forward, the mage drawing back the covering to reveal various artifacts, none of which were weapons, or had any sort of offensive or coercive enchantment.

He approached and Aegon's eyes danced across the artifacts. The magic within was common among old-world relics and seemed no real danger to anyone. Though magic can be hidden well under such mundane enchantments and further inspection would be needed in the city. For now though all seemed well. Aegon nodded with a small smile, " Thank you, all seems well. I will guide you into the city." He suddenly remembered that his pet was waiting for him just outside the city, " Oh yes, and don't be alarmed if you see a cerberus approach us on our trip. She's quite kind, if a bit indecisive." Aegon turned his back to the elves and began to march forward. As the journey began Aegon covertly reported into Empress Naoki using the telepathy gem he had placed in the hands of a silver dragon earring, " My lady, the elvish convoy you sent to investigate appears to be a diplomatic convoy with a collection of magical artifacts they bring in offering. They say they come from the city of Mithlonde and hope to extend a hand if friendship. I am escorting them into the city now, where would you like to meet them?" |

The mage nodded and recovered the artifacts in the cart.
"We are glad they meet your approval. And the warning is appreciated, we have encountered such beasts in the past, and none here have fond recollections of such encounters."
As they journeyed, the soldiers kept a tight cordon about the cart, but the mage travelled up with Aegon, occasionally asking questions about the sights along the way.
