LizzyMoo ((Mourning Peaks)) A bit of disbelief seemed to quirk Alaynia's brow as she glanced back to Aiao. A minor god... I still see very little that is different from this creature and the others I have met so far... she thought to herself. Afterall, the least the "Gods" could do was make the Yudou look a bit different.
Hoping to draw attention away from her momentary lapse of restraint upon her own features, she chuckled out "...the ability to change sex, now that is definitely something unique!"
She paused and listened to the last part as she continued to float about, moving forward and flapping her wings very lightly. "...domains... almost like a pillar of sorts... So Aiao's domain is thievery? It is a very unique area, for I wouldn't suspect anyone would bless a creature with the ability to steal..."
She glanced down the unbeaten path and sighed. It still looked like a pile of rubble and nothingness. "...goodness... isn't there anything else about here that is slightly more... beautiful?" she asked outloud, though not really expecting an answer.
Aiao chuckled a bit at her musing of the sex change, then looked up when she mentioned his blessing of theft.
"Ah, but the ability to actually steal is only one part of it. For with that ability, I am granted the power to become invisible to most eyes. Unless I speak, I can remain undetected in practically plain sight."
At the question on beauty, Aiao flicked a tan ear casually and looked towards the south. This area was a bit bleak and depressing. Maybe the new one held something else to offer.
"Perhaps there is something of intrest in the new land that was formed. Shall we look?"

((Mourning Peaks))
Nodding her head as he suggested a bout in the new land, Alaynia waited for the Yudou to guide the way. Afterall, this was still her first time being in Nowhere.
"...to truly become invisible, or just to move about undetected?" the Deejarne asked in hopes of some sort of specification.
However, her mind soon drifted to her own ability as she then uttered "...I can do something similar I suppose... though I have yet to actually test the extents of the ability." A finger crawled up towards her left ear and gently brushed through her feathers which were clipped to her ears.

Aiao nodded, and began to pick his way throught the rocks easily. He glanced up at Alaynia when she asked him to clarifty his powers, and replied.
"True invisibility is beyond my power, but remaining undetected has it's own advantages."
The leading edge of the new land was not far away; they had been near it to begin with. As they moved closer, Aiao noticed the thick clouds and reddish glow, and sensed that this area could prove even more dangerous than the peaks. He pushed those thoughs away, however, when the Deejarne mentioned her own ability. Curiously, he looked up.
"I have heard that Deejarne posses innate powers of their own, but I have never actually had that confirmed. But then, I have only seen one Deejarne other than yourself, and he certainly wasn't of your alignment. What is the power of the skill you posess?"

((Mourning Peaks- edge of Crimflow ))
Her own bold ocean blue eyes glanced at the scenery which seemed to contrast with her mere nature completely. It seemed rather warm in color, while she remained of pale and cool colors. The billowing smoke seemed to form into dark clouds. It was a sight which deserved awe, yet seemed to also demand a bit of fear. Only the first emotion had struck into Alaynia's heart though.
"Deejarne?...so that is what you call creatures of my stature?" she mused, never having been called by such a title prior. Lizzy only called Alaynia a dream, for that was how Alaynia had introduced herself to the computer. A small and confident smile curled upon her features as she thought to herself I definitely like that title.
Shaking off her momentary lapse, she then continued "...I know somewhere inside myself that I have the ability to teleport. The exact restraints I am not certain of yet... but I shall learn soon enough..."

Lyra and Storei both nodded their heads enthusiastically.
"Stay with Landen and Cai." he repeated. "Alright." He and Lyra trotted over to the other two dreams. "How long have you guys been here?" he asked curiously.

Cai nodded and he said with an enthusiastic smile, What do you mean? Been here in Nowhere? Or been alive?
San nodded and he licked Silas, Let's go. And then the two dreams trotted over to the temple of the Earth.

((Mourning Peaks-Crimflow Edge))
Aiao gazed around the new land, amazed at the contrast. While the Peaks where cold and winy, this place personified it's anathema.
Pools of lava glowed like hellfire beneath the greasy, ashen skies. The land was barren, anything that might once have been green was now a blighted, dead red-brown. Sulfur hung on the dry, heated air and numerous volcanoes dotted the plain. What worried Aiao the most though was the not-so-distant spots of moving Nightmares. So intrenched as he was in his musings, the Yudou almost missed the remark made by the Blue-green dream.
"Teleportation? That is indeed a gift." he remarked, gazing out once more. As he looked out, a bit of movement off to the right caught his eye,.
On a dormant volcano close by, a pack of three Nightmares surrounded a black and yellow dream. Something seemed to be off about him, but Aiao coulden't place it. Turning to Alaynia, he nodded towards them.
"We should help, or he'll get hurt. Would you like to come?" he asked, already trotting towards the fight.

((Mourning Peaks-Crimflow Edge))
When Aiao mentioned something about helping, Alaynia allow her eyes to wander towards the pack of nightmares.
"...three on one is definitely an unfair fight... I think I would not mind helping this time..." Noting that the other was already speeding up ahead of her, she actually began to flap her three sets of wings and drew up to the Yudou's side once more. She truly was not a war-monger, but she also preferred things being fair in a battle.
As they drew closer to the other dream, a bit of heat began to creep upon Alaynia's body.

I'll have Hagalaz use his Destruction Runestone on his turn, and I'll post Aiao's attack after. ^^***** ((Crimflow))
Aiao flashed her a grateful smile, knowing that most would be hesitant to engage a Nightmare their first time in Nowhere. As he quickly scrambled up the rocks, they both soon made it to where the lone Dream was about to fight.
Growling at the uneven match, Aiao sprung up next to the other, but quickly leapt back when black flames surrounded him. Now that he was closer, he could see what had puzzled him earlier; this Dream had a mechanical arm grafted onto his body, which shone with a cold, hard light.
He turned to Alaynia, watching the Nightmares. "There's one for each of us; this should even things out."Hagalaz  Uncommon Artifact  Mecha Claw There are two different versions of the Mecha Claw. The first is sort of like a sleeve of armor. It slides over a dreams paw and covers it. The second is a highly technological piece of equipment that is actually grafted on in place of a Dreams missing paw. (It is up to the Dream owner which one of these options they choose.) These claws may come in a wide varity of colors. Either choice, the effects are still the same. The Dream that wears a Mecha Claw gains a +5 to their attack and a +5 to their defense, but they suffer a -4 to their luck. (If this lowers their luck to below 0 then a penalty is applied to all luck rolls equal to the negative number) Hagalaz  The rune of destruction. When used in battle, the dream becomes encompased with black flames. Whenever the dream is physically attacked by an opponent, they take 1d6 negative energy damage. When the dream itself attacks, 3d6 negative energy damage is added to it's attack if it is a successful hit, or 1d6 negative energy damage if it is not a successful hit. Useing this stones power takes a full rounds action, and will remain in effect until the dream that activated it will's it's effect to end.
Hagalaz snarled disdainfully as the three Nightmares leapt from the rocks to surround him. He glared, before easily calling up his destructive abilities. As his anger grew, black flames erupted around him. As he was about to release the product of his fury, another Dream, yellow-tan, leapt up beside him, with another, odder one behind him.
He growled to himself. If they wished to fight, so be it. But they had better not foul him up...
Turning back to the Nightmare, he snarled again and launched himself forward at it.

((Crimflow))  Though the other two seemed to grow a bit more aggressive, the Deejarne seemed to hold a relatively relaxed stance. Finally making it to a spot near Aiao, she nodded and uttered "...yes... 1 for each of us..."
She narrowed her eyes to glance at the three creatures before them. Alaynia merely assumed that they were native to this land and uttered so her companion could hear "...seeing as we are in a place with much fire, perhaps you should avoid using the spell I saw you use in your last battle Aiao..."((EDIT: Did you want me to put in an attack? ))

Think so.. biggrin
*****
((Crimflow))
Aiao looked around briefly, before nodding to Alaynia. Lowly, he answerd.
"Yes, I see. Fire would probably have no affect." He winced slighly, realizing that even his dagger had fire powers. He would have to remedy that before he came back here again.
Still, the damage would do more on the Nightmare, and he pulled out the gold-hilted dagger and attacked.

((*Shrugs... okays xd *posts it now* ))
((Crimflow))
After Aiao had responded, she then moved into action herself. Flapping her wings far harsher than she usually would, she then sped towards a single nightmare of the three. As she drew close enough, she closed her eyes and concentrated upon teleporting behind the tainted dream before her. Within a blink of an eye, Alaynia seemed to vanish. Yet instantaneously, she reappeared behind the nightmare she had been charging at (3 feet from where she originally had been). Without a pause, she then lashed each of her nine tails heftily at the creature as hard as each tail could manage. The single motion almost seemed graceful, and caused her hair and feathers to dance with the attack.
