Post by Heroes' Guild NPCs on Sept 8, 2017 16:08:04 GMT -8
With young adventurers being drawn to the dangers of the Ao frontier, the Heroes' Guild was made in year 107 of the current Age. The goal being to find and recognize true heroes, test them, and train with them. The Guildhouse is built in the rocky hills of the northern forested region of Aozora that was once home to treacherous bandits. With the battle of Taloum won, the bandits were flushed out of the area. The Guildmaster was an accomplished warrior who's fought in multiple battles and retired to found the guild with Aozora's leader being one of the patrons for it.
A twisted glittering tree with glowing indigo leaves decorates the exclusive patio of the Guildhouse accompanied by benches, a fountain, and some bushes that will one day grow to become impressive hedges. The magic tree is prized by the Guildmaster who acquired the sapling as a gift from an old lover. Only honored guests and guild members can enjoy the relaxing patio.
________________________________________________ Joining the Guild ________________________________________________
To join the Guild of Heroes you need to have proven yourself with heroic deeds, young unproven adventures will be offered quests to earn their merit to enter the heroes' hall. Inquire at the door.
Guild Members are treated to food and lodging while training here. __________________________________ Hall of Passed Heroes
__________________________________
Even if these heroes were not alive at the time of the guild's founding, they're automatically qualified for the guild. Statues of fallen heroes of the past are lined up in one of the halls where they can be visited and honored.

Roleplay posts: 6
Age: 36
Physical Description: ****************
Standing almost six feet in height, this former adventurer still keeps himself almost fighting trim. Once, he had a head full of hair and a neatly trimmed beard, both points of pride from his corner of the world; for the last six years, he's since remained clean shaven, his hair shorn off completely.
A numer of scars marr his hands, forearms and face now, his voice a gruff rasp from an old injury at his throat mostly healed by magic. He always seems to keep a scarf about his neck or a neckcloth to hide it, leaving speculation around the guildhall quite rampant as to the nature of the injuries.
He moves with resltess energy, his eyes always flicking about, wary, cautious and with a slight hitch in his step.
Clothes and Equipment: ****************
He favors utility over fashion, rough wools for the chill autumn and winter, usually a vest of some sort over a tunic with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. Sturdy boots that have long since formed to his feet. The only thing that stands out is the scarf about his neck, a tattered piece of crimson cloth that he prizes above all else.
The last time someone took it, he broke someone's nose and shattered a glass tankard on someone's face in a fit of rage.

Some would have considered a pointless, perhaps even Sisyphean task, to sweep the stone steps of the guild's entrance every morning but it was the way to start the day for Caliban, broom in hand. Then, it'd be chopping the wood and piling it, sweeping the parlor, polishing the railings before he'd meander his way along, passing by the patio where the honored tree grew and earned the same nod with each passing from the man. Early morning meant training periods for some of the more regimented and dedicated sort, and soon it would be breakfast for those that would rather catch more sleep.
For him, it meant making his way to the coomon room and dining area, where he began to pull the chairs from the tables and place them accordingly, some of the cooks already hard at work in the kitchen beyond. With that accomplished, it was behind the bar for him, wrapping the apron around his waist to welcome the early risers for their breakfast. In the meantime, it was inspecting glasses and cleaning the bartop.

Finally, Durgash approaches the Heroes' Guild. His journey has come to an end, but his story is far from over, for this may be the beginning of a new chapter in the life of the orc. He opens the doors leading into the halls of the Guildhouse and enters inside.
"Hello humans!" he shouts. "Durgash here to join Heroes Clan!"

Riley Fletcher and Cheesecake
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 121
Age: 25
Physical Description: Riley Fletcher is a red-haired human standing 6 feet in height, with the body of a trained soldier. His hair has been described as "red and floppy" and his clothes always seem to be their cleanest. Cheesecake is a fairy standing 6 inches in height, wearing a pink skirt. She has short blonde hair with a tiny cowlick that never seems to go away no matter what.
Clothes and Equipment: Riley's normal attire includes his red armor and green-tinted plate pieces and his green scythe with an amber blade. The scythe was a gift from the archfey themselves. Riley will be the first to admit a scythe isn't actually a viable weapon but the archfey, living in another plane of existence and having no idea what humans consider weapons, gifted him one thinking that because "it's super awesome-looking" it must be a proper weapon.
He keeps a longsword and shield as a backup for when the archfey are proven wrong. Along with his weapon, Riley carries with him standard adventuring gear as well as healing potions for when they're traveling. Cheesecake's small size means she's not able to carry much more than her rapier (essentially a metal toothpick).

Behind Durgash was a human with red hair in light armor. On his back was an amber scythe, but the more unusual sight was the tiny fairy sitting on his head. The little blonde fairy eagerly looked around the guild, excited by the lore surrounding the place and the statues of fallen heroes.
Riley remained quiet as Durgash exploded into the room. He looked around for the front desk or someone who could assist.

"Welcome to the Guild of Heroes!" A woman's voice called from above. Up on the next floor looking over the railing was the Guildmaster, a strong looking woman with tan skin. She comes downstairs to take a look at the newcomers and they can see that she had only one whole arm, her right arm had been lost in a battle a few years back but even after that she still fought. She was just dressed in her casual clothes which included a sleeveless top, what's left of her right arm is covered in clean bandages and a small metal plate at the end of it. "My name is Tuska Blade-Arm, I'm the Guildmaster. Are you both here to join?" Tuska then notices Cheesecake flying around and grins, "Or shall I say the three of you?" There were some other warriors around the Guild training. On the upper floor some heroes were conversing at a table, one of them ( Megan Zachurr looks down over the railing to take a look at the newcomers. The Man with Red hair looked familiar to her, she'd met a similar looking man before who also was accompanied by a fairy. Her attention would be called back to the table though as someone makes a remark that annoys her, assumedly about someone close to her but it didn't sound like anything harsh, just a jest. |

Caliban was cleaning a tankard when the door slammed open and a voice boomed, a wicked twitch coming from him before his eyes alone snapped up, the rest of his body still. But none others leapt forward to the defence of the hall, no sound of combat. So slowly, his rag went back to work, cleaning the tankards and serving drinks for the guildies in the dining hall, at least.

It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance." He said with a polite smile. |

Durgash listened to the conversation between Riley and Tuska Blade-Arm. He wasn't used to the human manners and etiquette, but he understood what the Guildmaster asked.
"Yes! You are human that send Durgash letter? Durgash want join this clan! Durgash become best warrior!" Durgash's shout filled the whole Guild.

Tuska returns Riley's hand shake and spoke to him and Durgash, "Before you can join the Heroes' Guild though, you need to prove to us you're hero material. Everyone here has gained access through merit, either from an already established reputation, or from completing a quest for us."
The Guildmaster walks to the noticeboard and looks for a quest that could be suitable. After inspecting the board she unpins one of the notes, "Ao scouts share intel with us on things that happen around here, this is an interesting report. To the east is the town of Taloum, which was previously under the control of some crafty bandits that were known for setting magical traps. It seems that when they were forced out by the army of Aozora they set a delayed trap at the well that provides water for the people there. Water drawn from the well has been coming alive as Water Elementals, the town can't get water without being attacked. Think you could check it out?"

"Magical traps converting normal water into water elementals? I'm not an expert on magical artifacts but Cheesecake here should know a few things on how to properly disable them." Riley said after thinking a little. Cheesecake nodded in agreement. "Assuming Durgash is alright with it, I'd be glad to help the town out."

"Ha! Water weak! Durgash easily crush water!" Durgash taunted the humans' inability to deal with the water elementals, not fully understanding what was Tuska even talking about. Encouraged by his desire to join the Heroes' Guild, though, he agreed to help. "Durgash will help human. Soon, all water fear Durgash!" He screamed at the top of his lungs.

"Good luck then, the actual trap should be somewhere at the well if you can find a way to remove it." Tuska escorts the party out of the building and watches them go. "If you succeed, you'll be welcome to join us for dinner as our comrades!" >> Proceed to Taloum Well |

The door swung open, giving way to the pressure summoned by Durgash's arms. Durgash jogged to the middle of the hall, exclaiming:
"Durgash return glory! Durgash smashed waters!" The orc grinned proudly. "Now Durgash join Heroes?!" He grunted, impatiently waiting for a response.

There is a rattling clink as the door swings open, and a hulking figure marches in. His every step shakes the floor. The lumbering statue rumbles to a halt in the center of the building.

"You're back, sounds like you've completed your task. Congratulations you pass the test." Tuska Blade-Arm greets Durgash, Riley, and Cheesecake. They'd notice now that the Guildmaster now had a metal prosthetic screwed onto her bicep, it was very simple looking, it's primary use being for combat though it also could have different tools attached to it. "Welcome to the Heroes' Guild, let us celebrate with dinner." (At a different time) Tuska Blade-Arm stood from her seat and adressed Medus, many of the Guildies were out on a hunt or doing some other chore. The Guildmaster was dressed in her full gear: slightly weathered teal-trimmed armor, her combat prosthetic arm, and her official guild cloak. She eyed the heavy metal man, curious about him. "I am Tuska Blade-Arm, who are you and what business do you have?" |

Durgash was really happy from the invitation. "Yes! Food! Durgash feast!" He quickly ran to the closest chair and sat to the table, grabbing the various meals into his bare hands and putting them into his overflowing mouth.

Riley nodded at the mention of food but Cheesecake literally began to glow with happiness at the prospect. She began to pull Riley's hair and chirp excitedly, causing Riley to flinch and pull her off his head and into his hands.
"Alright, alright, I get it..." He chuckled, looking down to the excited fairy. The two looked back up to Tuska and bowed slightly.
"THank you for the offer, we'd be honored to have dinner with you. And I'm glad we could join the guild."

Doobie was visiting the guild to check in if there was any word about his lost son but there didn't seem to be any today. He stuck around for a bit to talk to some of the guild members such as Riley Fletcher and Cheesecake or even @durgash. He wanted to get more word spread about his son Wah who was only a little boy out there in the world on his own. Suddenly Doobie heard a horn, a call. "What's that noise?" He asked around but he seemed to be the only one who could hear it. His instincts told him to go toward the source of the horn, but his intelligence told him to be cautious. "Something strange is going on, I feel it, can someone come with me? I think there will be danger." |

Riley looked over to Doobie curiously.
"Hm? Danger?" He asked. If someone was in trouble he felt obliged to help. He turned back to Tuska.
"Perhaps we could do a raincheck on that dinner? Sounds like someone needs help."
Cheesecake groaned, facepalming in Riley's hands. He shrugged and plopped her back on his head.
"Sorry Cheese, let's help this guy out first." He said as he went to talk to Doobie.
"Excuse me, you said there might be danger? What sort of danger?"

"Ah, I'm sorry. I seem to be the only one hearing it, but it's definately there. It's like how only dogs can hear certain whistles." Doobie knows Riley Fletcher and Cheesecake should probably eat and take a break first. "Listen, I know you just came back from your own quest. We don't need to leave right away, you get yourself some food and I'll use my divining skill to get more information. If you still want to come afterwards, you'll find me here." Doobie bows and walk off toward the garden to meditate on what is happening. He'd get visions of where the horn was coming from and how far it was, but there was something obscuring his vision the longer he looked, but he could see the shadow of a massive thing flying in the sky, presumably a dragon. He keeps divining as long as he can until he sees a campfire and he hears a familiar voice say "Mr. Kaine, I hear something. I wonder if my dad hears it too."
Doobie gasps and his visions stop. "My son, he hears it too. It's settled, I have to get there before he gets hurt." The Kobold would search for Riley and whoever else wanted to go and leave with them to head for The Gathering Field. <exit to Aozora Border > |
