Draga smiled warmly as Farrah booped her horse. She hadn't been this close to someone in a long time and she loved it. She took no effort to hide her joy. At the mention of food, however, Draga nodded.
"Done. You choose where to eat, I'll treat." She said, following Farrah

Age: 30
Physical Description: Alden is 6 even, with shoulder length messy black hair, and several days worth of beard stubble. He is handsome, with a powerful jaw, mid set cheek bones, and a perpetual grin that makes him seem younger than he really is. His bright green eyes, constantly sparkle with barely contained mirth. He has the lithe well muscled body of a swordsmen, and he moves with considerable grace and dexterity.
If one where to take more thorough examination of Alden's eyes they may notice a further detail. Around the outside edge of his iris's there's an intricate series of minuscule grey runes.
Alden rarely removes his shirt, but should someone see him with it off, they would find his body to be covered in scar tissue. Starting from just below his neckline, there is very little space that does not sport some relic of a past injury. A particularly observant person may also note that among these scars, some are a bright scarlet. These scarlet scars form an intricate series of runes hiding among the others.
Those of a more magical bent may be able to decipher the runes in his eyes and on his skin. Identifying them as sigils more commonly found on magical items. The most obvious effect of the runes on his body, are increased speed, strength, and durability.
The runes on his eyes give him the ability to detect magical auras and residue, as well as allowing him to see through low level illusions and glamours. They also maintain his vision regardless of the current light level, and even if there is a sudden shift. His eyes are also capable of dropping into the infrared spectrum in complete darkness.
The rune work on his body enhances his natural strength, speed, endurance, durability, and reflexes to almost super human levels. The effects make him a formidable opponent for most magical creatures though only because they are supplemented by exceptional skill.
This means that all though he is almost super human in a straight contest of strength or speed he would most likely loose to most other magically enhanced humanoids such as vampires or were wolves.
Alden's runes also greatly increase his healing rate allowing him to recover from injuries that would normally take a few months for a person to recover from in a few short weeks. Not only do Alden's runes accelerate healing they also enhance it. A normal persons body will repair itself until it is functioning again then stop, thanks to the runes Alden's body will continues to fix itself until it is in near perfect condition. His healing abilities enhance his already prodigious stamina as it repairs muscle damage and lactic build up and it also increases longevity as he does not accumulate long term damage as most people do.
Finally his body runes provide protection from people attempts to find him magically. Detection spells will be obfuscated their readings on his location being off by about 20 meters. Long distance scrying and tracking spells are only able to narrow down his area to somewhere within a mile radius. It should be noted that these protections can be overcome by someone with sufficient power or ingenuity.
His runes cannot be removed unless they are cut off of his body using an appropriate ritual knife and magic. If the runes are disrupted in any other way they will simply grow back in a few weeks time.
The final thing that only someone versed in rune craft and enchanting would be able to tell is this: The process of these runes being carved into his bodies would have been unbelievably painful. A normal person would have been driven insane or to suicide if they had this happen to them. During the carving process un-directed magical energies would begin to take hold and tear apart your soul. The pain this would not cease until the rune pattern was completed. This means the pain caused would be on a spiritual and physical level of incredible magnitude.

Alden raises an eye as the man almost swears but catches himself and The High Marshal nods in approval at the man's restraint. Apparently, the ring toss was getting quite crowded and Alden lets out a little sigh before nodding to Badger. "I am sure we will, have a pleasant time." He says in response to Badger's farewell before making his way up to the carnival attendant. He had one wooden sword and two kids who wanted wooden swords, which meant that he'd not be leaving this stall until he had a second wooden sword. He honestly just wanted to buy the blood thing but that probably wouldn't be in the spirit of things.

Meanwhile, Moon and Juniper claps excitedly for Farrah. "YOU DID IT!" The little blue haired girls exclaim happily. "Now you are festival princesses!" Alden settles his smallest child Rawr Rawr back on the floor not noticing that he is staring raptly at the dwarf, or rather the plush dragon the dwarf just won. Little Naoki is staring at the dwarf since she's never seen one before and the little brown haired girl approaches. "You are a female dwarf! I heard they have beards but you don't, are you an exception or do no dwarf women have beards?" She asks curiously looking at Bella.1-5

"If you insist," Farrah laughed, not about to spend coin if someone else was willing to pay for it. She walked off with @totallynotadragon toward the Turkey Leg food booths, flowers around her head, a wooden sword at her hip, and a hobby horse in one hand. She waved to the little girls that were bouncing around Alden Marshal and was then on her way. [Exit to Turkey Leg] |

Physical Description: Bella is average height for a dwarf, around four and a half feet tall, with the broad shoulders and powerful frame common to her race. Her long, dark hair is usually pulled back in thick braids. Most would consider her face somewhere between "cute" and "pretty," or a mix of both, with deep green eyes and freckles often accented by streaks of soot from her work in the forge.
Clothes and Equipment:
At work, which is most of the time, Bella wears sturdy, practical clothing, with heavy gloves and apron to protect her from sparks and other dangers of the forge. Even away from work, she usually has tools tucked away in the various pockets and pouches of her clothing.

Bella laughed in delight, clapping her hands together when she managed to land all five. Maybe she had a knack for this. Or more likely, it was a simple case of beginner’s luck. In any case, it was beyond doubt an especially fun way to kick off the festivities. She dances around a little in her excitement, which gives the opportunity for @banditkelly to pick up the prize for her.
She hadn’t really intended for the young woman to fetch and carry for her, but she didn’t seem too put out. Bella resolved to buy her lunch and a drink by way of a thank you. “Thank you, Kelly. Did you want to play one of the games? It’s only fair for you to have some fun, too.”
When the little girl approaches, Bella smiles warmly to her. "No, I don't have a beard. I think people say that because they aren't used to seeing dwarf women at all. Mostly, it's the men that go out into the world. So if every dwarf they see has a beard, they either guess that dwarf women have beards, too, or that there are no dwarf women at all, and that we are carved from the stone of the mountain."
Bella leans on conspiratorially, lowering her voice a shade, but not so much that nearby people can't hear. "My granny has a bit of a beard coming in, though. but we aren't allowed to make jokes about it, or Da sends us to bed without our supper."

"Oh! Uh...I mean, spending time with you is good." She said, losing her grip on the dragon.
"But, if you insist I'll give it a shot..."
With one hand, Kelly walked up and tossed a ring.

The ring landed on the pole for the wooden sword, cheering Kelly up a little.
"Oh hey, I needed a new blade too." She said jokingly as she went to pick up the sword. She turned back to Bella.

Kelmaer Iridien
Established
Roleplay posts: 31
Age: Primordial.
Physical Description: Physical Appearance:
Kelmaer Iridien is a tall, bipedal male closely resembling a human but with several noticeable differences. The first is the colour of his skin; a dim blue, resembling a sky where night has not yet fully fallen yet dashed with a hint of purple. When exposed to sufficient lighting, Kelmaer's skin brightens with a white tinge that leaves him a light slate blue.
His second contrast are the three pairs of dark, dangerously sharp horns that exit his skull at various places; the first pair are the smallest, located just above his knife-tipped ears and follow them straight backwards so that their sharpened points are aimed to his rear. The second pair are the largest and located further up his scalp, their roots located where the front of the skull joins the side and like the first pair of horns they grow backwards over his head, yet this time with a curve. The third pair are medium-sized, located further inwards than the second pair with their base at the top of his forehead. These curve outwards and slightly to the side as they grow up towards the sky.
Other than these two main dissimilarities, Kelmaer looks related to both human and elf-kind, with a similar anatomical structure that suggests all three groups share a common ancestor. Kelmaer himself is a somewhat slender man, with very little body fat and a clear muscle definition that has been toned by some form of training or natural muscle mass. He is also tall, with angular facial features that are all-but flawless except a small scar above his right eyebrow. His eyes are a little on the small side with a golden iris colour and though slightly interrupted by his horns, his long and dark blue hair is able to grow down past his shoulders.
Clothes and Equipment: Clothing and Equipment:
Though Kelmaer has very little issue in showing off his form, he often wears clothing to cover himself until considered modest. His most common items of clothing include a long, dark cloak that opens like a coat and is padded with leather on the inside and rimmed at the neck by fur. Though he tends not to wear anything under the coat on his torso, he does wear trousers that are similarly padded with leather for a little extra protection. Despite this apparent preference to avoid true metal armour, his forearms, hands, calves and feet are covered by vambraces, gauntlets , greaves and sabatons respectively; all of which have a spiked motif to match the horns on his head.
At his hips, a leather belt with attached straps connects to a pair of long blades with slightly curved edges and a satchel filled with strange flasks.

"Well then, enjoy your time," the man replied, dropping his hobby horse to the floor with little care for his littering, then made his way off to another part of the festival for further exploration. So much to do, so little time! He took his flask out again, then another hefty sip from it that made him shudder and smile. Before long, he was out of view as he moved towards another of the games.

Well, Alden wasn't normally one to curse another's fortune, however, when he winds yet another flower crown and the woman who comes up after him wins the sword he needs he has to stifle a small curse. This game was most assuredly rigged he could hit a bullseye at forty paces with a throwing knife, blindfolded, ten times out ten but he couldn't land four of these damn rings? Scowling he pays for another round and throws again his children for the moment were fine.

Meanwhile, Calen and Kae notice that Kelmaer dropped his hobby horse, the boys call after the man asking if he meant to do so but the man appears to be gone so they claim that to add to their collection of souvenirs. Juniper and Moon Moon noticing that their father won another crown decide to try and sneak it onto his head, grabbing it off the counter and tossing it up in the air trying to land it onto him while he is focusing on the ring toss.
Meanwhile, Rawr Rawr comes to stand next to and a little behind Naoki, still eying the dragon. Wondering if he could get his daddy to win one for him but too shy to ask. The little girl frowns as she listens to Bella's explanation. "That makes sense, though it's silly that they would print unsubstantiated hypothesis in their books." She said with a scowl not pleased to learn that once again people were printing inaccuracies. "But Big Naoki said that people do that because they want to seem smart." The news that she might get sent to bed without supper gives her a start. "Daddy says you should never skip a meal though! It's important to maintain your strength" She says aghast that the dwarf's daddy would make his daughter skip a meal.1-5

“Well, your father is right. It is important, of course. That’s why we never, ever laugh at granny’s beard.” She pauses a moment to look over at @banditkelly and clap her hands together. “Congratulations! A fine addition to the collection! I think we will make our way around to all of them in time. Maybe the fishing game next? Or the one with the hammer? Or maybe it wouldn't be fair for me to compete at that?” The little smith laughs merrily and waves towards the strongman game.
Bella turns back to Naoki with a smile to continue her conversation, seemingly not at all put out to be chatting with a little girl. “I think that sometimes, very clever people are afraid that if they admit to not knowing about too many things, they won’t count as clever anymore. So even if they don’t know, they try to pretend that they do. When they tie up their whole idea of themselves in knowing things, it can be very scary to face what they don’t know.”

She chuckled as well but seeing the large crowd slowly forming around Bella she didn't say anything else right away. Her smile slowly gave away to a frown. Bella was a beautiful woman, and clearly as popular as she was talented. Kelly, however, was.....she didn't know. She was surprised the dwarf even gave her a chance. The only thing Kelly felt confident in was stealing and killing, neither of which seemed to be something Bella was interested in. She didn't have a chance with her.
Defeated, Kelly sighed and kept a content smile, waiting for Bella to finish her conversations before following her to the next destination.
"Honestly, I'd suggest the hammer game." She would say after the two were alone again, "With your skill you'd have a whole army of these things by the end of the day."

Alden stares at the tankard and sucks in a long slow breath surprised at the amount of anger this game was provoking in him, he hadn't had any issues with his temper in years but this game was pushing it and he was about ready to just take a wooden blade and be done with it. He decides to give it one more go picking up the crown his daughters had been trying to toss onto his head and slipping it on first to get the distraction out of the way. The little girls giggle when they see their father wearing the crown and sit back and watch as he begins tossing rings.

Meanwhile, Little Naoki looks up at Draga the dwarf was only a foot taller than the little girl something which pleased Naoki it made her feel like she'd suddenly gotten older. "That makes sense." She says as her tail flicks back and forth and her ears twitch a bit. "I think it's also because people like to think that their assumptions are right. Like the other day, Juney sat on her chair and it covered in water and her butt was wet and she was absolutely certain that Caleb and Kae were playing a joke on her so she told Daddy that they did it and he believed her because she was so sure. But then Rawr Rawr admitted that he spilled the water by accident and Juney just sat before he could clean it up, but Juney thought she was right and if Rawr Rawr hadn't spoken up everyone would have thought it was Calen and Kae." She says as her tail curls in excitement she liked making examples. 1-5

“Yes, I am sure that is a part of it, too. When you think you have figured something out, it can be very hard to see that you might got the wrong answer.” She laughs and nods. “You seem to be very clever yourself. Maybe one day, you will be the one writing the books. But for now, I think my friend there is wanting us to play a few more games. Have a happy new year, and enjoy the rest of the festival.” Bella smiles warmly, then skips off towards the Strongman game with @banditkelly carrying her new plush dragon following behind. |

Alden is handed the wooden hobby horse and he sucks in a breath of supreme irritation and finally just tells the man to give him a wooden sword and a plush dragon, he'd noticed Rawr Rawr's adoration of Bella's. The barker running the ring toss game tries to explain to Alden that prizes cannot be purchased and must be won fairly which prompts Alden to lean in close and whisper something into the man's ear which makes the attendant turn pale and hand over the sword and dragon without further delay.
The sword and hobby horse got to Caleb and Kae who decide that this makes them knights of the fair and it is their duty to guard their sisters whose flower crowns make them princesses. Rawr Rawr hugs the stuffed dragon tightly, the plush animal roughly the same size as the small boy but he doesn't seem to mind that as he carries it about. Little Naoki had beamed at Annabelle's compliment and skipped over to tell her daddy all about the nice dwarf lady she'd talked to as he takes them away from the stand and to the rest of the fair.

Seren didn't stop walking through the crowds until she came to the ring toss and saw how much fun people were having. She laughed, and then turned to try and find Typhus somewhere, lifting up onto her toes, waving her hand. "Typhus! I want to play this game!" She pointed to it, glowing with excitement at being able to do this. She had no idea what their funds were like, had no idea where the funds came from, and she didn't much care (she didn't know to care, protected from that hardship by Typhus). |

Typhus was, of course, right behind Seren he was very grateful that it wasn't night as the number of smells would have put him in a stupor if he had his night senses. As it was he was still a bit overwhelmed and he focused on Seren as they came to a game. Their funds, at present, were a bit sparse after the last few days and paying for Seren's enchantment but they still had enough coin that Seren would be able to play some games... If Typhus went hungry, which he would for Seren and not say a single thing about it. Handing some coin to the man he smiles at her and nods indicating she should throw the little rings.

She smiled for Typhus -- just for Typhus -- and took the rings from his calloused hands. Seren laughed as she basically danced to her place, and then bit down on her lip, an expression of adorable determination set on her brow as she aimed at the peg placed into the ground, and let all of the rings go at one time!

Seren's smile did what it always did, set his heart at ease and made him melt a bit, it was worth going hungry just to see that smile. Then she is dancing away with the rings and, of course, since she didn't know what she was doing she just tossed them all at once. Sheer chance leads to three of them landing on the girls head and that wins her a flower crown. Typhus places it on her head and he smiles. "It looks good on you." He says without thought the wreath seemed to match her quite well in all honesty.

Seren gasped with delight as her prize was handed over to Typhus. She turned to him, as pretty as twilight, looking up at him with that smile on her face. She giggled, smiling broadly, dimples in her cheeks as he settled the crown on her head and spoke softly to her. And she even blushed. "Thank you, Typhus," she said to him, reaching up a hand to touch the flowers to see if they were real or not.
Real, it seemed. Enchanted to endure. "But I want to win you something!" Seren said, reaching out to grab onto one of his broad hands with both of her small, soft ones. She bounced in place. "Please! You should have a sword -- or one of those.... what are those?" She pointed to the slingshot, having never seen one like it before.

Something in her smile and blush just then made his blood quicken and his stomach twist in the oddest way, he was not familiar with desire at least not when it came to women. As a boy, the only time he'd seen members of the fairer sex was in the crowd of the arena or the rare female gladiator who were often more brutal than the male ones. He was inexperienced in social matters, inexperienced in the ways of the heart so what was obvious to any looking was something he himself did not realize.
He blinks when she says she wants to win him a prize and he nods slowly. "You can play more games, of course, and I would like anything you gave me." He says scratching his nose not sure how to voice the sentiment he felt when she told him she wanted to give him a gift. His gaze follows her finger and he says with a shrug. "I think it's a sling shot." He'd seen slings in use but not sling shots though he'd heard of them.

"Yes, a slingshot!" Seren said excitedly. "I am going to get you a sling shot."
She waited semi-patiently when Typhus no-doubt paid -- Seren was not used to ever hearing the word no come from Typhus -- and when she was handed the rings, she did as she did before -- and threw them all at once. If it worked before, it would work again, wouldn't it?

To Typhus's surprise Seren's method of playing the game works better the second time than it did the first. Four of the rings land on the posts and the attendant hands over the prize a hobby horse. The former gladiator stares at the toy in confusion wondering what it's purpose was looking over to Seren and giving her a tentative smile. "You are good at this game, do you want to try another?"
