Zeb shook his head. "Don't worry about the reason, but make it. And put ventilation in. It's as simple as that."
Zeb turned to Shilon, pulling out another book. "Yes, i know very well what she suggested without having to read her mind. Now get to it. I want to make you guys into a fighting force as soon as possible. I need members for the Royal Guard. Preferably soon." he said, handing Shilon the book.

Lauren sighed, "Alright, I guess" she said, walking into the office storage rooms. She fetched back a bunch of rubber and small metal pads. She started cutting several strips and folded them into the shape of the suit. Using Bailey's focused beam, she melted the suit together, binding it in to the shape of one large rubber, like a massive jonhy. [1/2]
She pulls small pads of metal on the knees, elbows, and shoulders for minimal protection. after a while more, the suit was finished. Lauren looked over it and shook her head, "This is going to kill whoever wears it" she said handing it to the Captain. [2/2]

Razor Wire
Lauren produced a small amount of web on her hand and stretched it out. She focused a little energy into it, and the web turned razor sharp. [1/1]
Web Coating
Lauren produced more web, but this time, it covered her entire hand. She laid it down on a rock, and kept her hand open. She lifted up and the rock stayed attached. [1/1]
Trapping Web
Lauren began by producing a small line of web from her hand. She focused some energy into the web, and it became stickier than normal. [1/1]
She then pulled it out into a thin line. The web was barely visible now, but due to the energy, it was really tough to break [1/1]

Kato opened the book, and saw that it was a list of bard skills. The first was fairly simple he just plucked the string and sent a soundwave powerful enough to slow down large enemies and knock away arrows.
He took his guitar from the strap on his back and plucked a string sending a shockwave forward. Simple enough.
-Soundwave learned-
Next was powerchord. This would allow for him to send a ball of shredding sound waves in an attempt to cut the enemy. He strummed downward sending a wave of sound that was capable of causing minor cuts on the enemy.
-powerchord learned-
He could make an alarm? That sure was interesting. He picked up a fist sized stone that was on the ground that was three paces to the left. He began to store sound and energy inside of the stone. He had once heard a dragons roar, and he decided that would be the perfect sound for this. He set it as loud as he could manage. So he waved his hand over it to test it and to his surprise a mighty roar ten times as loud as the one he had heard erupted from it he quickly kicked the stone over the edge of the cliff, though the sound had already resonated, and echoed throughout the area. He rubbed his ears because being right up on that wasn't pleasant, at all.
-Alarm learned-
He sat down and began to tune his guitar, he would be practicing some songs soon.

 Atlas Guardian
Knight
10 Strength
3 Speed
350 Energy
Atlas nodded as he accepted the manual and found a free patch of space on The Rock Face. He examined the manual and it's diagrams carefully and then placed it on a nearby outcropping of rock. He then drew his claymore and followed the directions of the manual, taking the base stance of the Requiem Style.
He first went through the basic motions of the skill, Buster, and shifted the sword from the base stance to up over his head and then brought it down in one great slash. Simple enough so far. He thought, knowing it was meant as a basic skill, it still seemed to easy to use. He reset his position and then thought carefully as to how he'd build up energy in his sword. Atlas settled on creating a small bound between him and the sword, and by using that bond, he pumped energy through the blade. Finally, He swung the sword down while charged, with a little to much force even, and scratched the surface of The Rock Face.
[1/1 Buster learned]
He could still learn one more skill within the conditions that the Captain had given him, so Atlas again poured over the manual, absorbing as much information as he could. This next skill was similar to Buster, as Cross-slash too was a basic swing infused with energy. Using similar tactics as he did with Buster, Atlas used the small bond he'd created to pour energy into the sword, and then horizontally slashed the air in front of him.
[1/1 Cross-slash learned]
Atlas sheathed his claymore and picked up the manual. He then returned to the Captain and said, "I've completed the training assigned to me, now what should I be doing or learning next?"
» I may appear to be as cold as steel,
but there is far more to me then that. «

Lucy Red  Assassin / Yuran / Trainee / Queen Red / Energy: 350/350 --------------------------------------------"You think you can escape my blade.."------------------------------------------- Lucy stood infront of the captain completely unfazed by his pure strictness. "Lucy Red reporting in Sir. I need to learn the basic assassin skills. along with some ranged weaponry skills." Lucy whispered to the captain seeing as she really didn't want the others to find out she was an assassin who killed people many times already. And since the captain already said he read minds she kept hers blank while also setting up many mental blocks to keep him out of her mind. -----------------------------"..But your fate has already been sealed.. There is not escape.."----------------------------------

Zeb shook his head. He put a hand on her shoulder. "Sweet heart, war is for people who don't lie. There's no way you could be an assassin. Your a child. What do you know about killing others?" he inquired. From his cloak he pulled two books. One for Assassins, and the other for the crossbow. He offered them. "Learn these and come back when you've got all the E's and D's down pat. And next time we talk, drop the blank mind routine. Your thinking too hard on keeping your mind blank. It's an impossible task unless your a vegetable." he said, taking his hand off her shoulder. He thought about going through her head, but decided not to. A waste of his energy.
He took the suit from Lauren. "As long as you put ventilation in it, I'll be fine." he said, storing the suit in his robes. "So as I said, or didn't. Your a novice now. All the C's and 1 B of your choosing."
Zeb nodded, taking the book from Atlas, putting it into his robe and pulling out another book. This time, a book for Knights. "Same deal as before." he said offering the book.

Lucy Red Assassin / Yuran / Trainee / Queen Red / Energy: 350/350 --------------------------------------------"You think you can escape my blade.."------------------------------------------- Lucy looked to Zebulon and at first felt relaxed for a second then when he told her she was a child thats when she became irritated. "For your information ive been training in the assassin ways since i could first pick up a dagger.... and so far ive assassinated eleven people without getting caught... War is in my blood and so is killing." Lucy told him as she gratefully took the books he offered then walked away from him a few hundred feet deciding to train a little further from the others. -----------------------------"..But your fate has already been sealed..

Lucy Red Assassin / Yuran / Trainee / Queen Red / Energy: 350/350 --------------------------------------------"You think you can escape my blade.."------------------------------------------- Lucy first opened the assassins book and looked at the first two skills she could learn. First came Double edge, then Rotation Slice. Lucy read up on the skills and how they were preformed then set the book down and extended her hidden blade from her right gauntlet.
Lucy moved over to a dead tree for this first skill deciding it was a good target. Lucy then went over the skill in her head remembering everything she needed to do. Suddenly Lucy jumped forward stabbing her blade at the tree, then right before impact she twisted the blade quickly and watched as a large piece of bark flew off. Lucy smiled noting that the technique would be more useful when in close combat if she was ever caught.
[1/1] (Double Edge Learned)
Lucy quickly began to spin with her right hand extended out so her blade could reach maximum length. She then moved toward the tree while pulling her arms inward. once she was close enough Lucy then spun a little faster and upon impact made a huge cut into the tree. Lucy then stopped spinning and regained her balance and sense for up and down. She then decided to move on to the crossbow skills.
[1/1] (Rotation Slice learned) -----------------------------"..But your fate has already been sealed.. There is not escape.."----------------------------------

"Only 11? Your still a child compared to me and others. Come back around 11,000 and then we can talk. Until then, your a child to me." he said before she could leave. He sat down and pondered what he could do. The King was still away, and so was the other Captain. He hadn't even met either. He was beginning to think them lost or dead. He shook the thought, and sat down and began meditation.

Lucy Red Assassin / Yuran / Trainee / Queen Red / Energy: 350/350 --------------------------------------------"You think you can escape my blade.."------------------------------------------- Lucy sighed as she retracted her hidden blade then moved on to the Crossbow techniques. They all seemed really simple and straight forward. So she got down to work on them.
First up came the piledriver. So Lucy read through the technique a few times then pulled out her crossbow and loaded a bolt into it swiftly. She then held the crossbow up and kept it steady aiming at the tree she had practiced on earlier. Since she couldnt aim at a dummy Lucy chose the tree since it was the closest target.
[1/3]
Next Lucy began to focus her energy around the tip of the crossbow bolt. she carefully molded her energy around the bolt trying to make sure that she got this down the first time so she wouldn't waist so much energy. Plus she could remember the feeling of doing it right the first time so that she could use that feeling whenever she went to preform the skill.
[2/3]
Finally Lucy took careful aim again and fired. The bolt shot through the air like a bullet and went straight through the tree, along with three other trees before finally lodging itself into a fourth tree. "Damn thats powerful..." Lucy mumbled to herself as she decided to move on to the next skill.
[3/3] (Piledriver learned)
Next up came the Tripartite. So Lucy read through the technique a few times as she loaded a new bolt into her crossbow. She then held the crossbow up and kept it steady aiming at the tree she had just shot through. She hoped this technique would work seeing as it would be extremely useful.
[1/3]
Next Lucy began to focus her energy around the tip of the crossbow bolt. she carefully molded her energy into three thin lines that went down the length of the bolt and met at the tip. She was trying to make sure that she got this down the first time so she wouldn't waist so much energy. Plus she could remember the feeling of doing it right the first time so that she could use that feeling whenever she went to preform the skill.
[2/3]
Now Lucy took careful aim and fired at the tree. She watched as the crossbow bolt suddenly split into three bolts and hit the tree all with the same force as a normal bolt. Lucy smiled knowing she could use this if she was ever against three enemies at once, which hopefully wouldn't be anytime soon. Now she moved on to the last crossbow technique she could learn.
[3/3] (Tripartite learned)
Finally came Retract. Lucy read through the technique a few times as she loaded a new bolt into her crossbow. She then held the crossbow up and kept it steady aiming at the tree she had just shot through. She hoped this technique would work seeing as it would be useful if she ever missed, which usually didn't happen since she had been trained not to miss.
[1/3]
Next Lucy began to focus her energy around the back of the crossbow bolt and where the bolt was fired from on the crossbow itself. she carefully molded her energy around the back of the bolt and the crossbow trying to make sure that she got this down the first time so she wouldn't waist so many bolts. Plus she could remember the feeling of doing it right the first time so that she could use that feeling whenever she went to preform the skill.
[2/3]
Lucy now took aim at the tree but right before she fired she moved the crossbow a little bit so she would miss on purpose, then lucy fired. She watched the bolt fly through the air and miss its target barely, then suddenly the bolt was pulled back by a thin wire of energy and returned back to lucy. Lucy caught the bolt and simply put it back into her pouch with the rest of the bolts.
[3/3] (Retract learned)
Lucy now walked back over to Zebulon and gave him a nod. "I have mastered the E and D-rank techniques for the crossbow and Assassin skills.... but i was wondering if you could give me the Dagger techniques and the Throwing knife techniques as well since ill need more skills with weapons in case i get into a fight." Lucy asked him seeing as she wanted to learn more smaller weapons so that she could have a wider range of attacking instead of just her crossbow and assassin skills, plus smaller weapons were easier to carry and didn't attract attention.

Lucy Red Assassin / Yuran / Trainee / Queen Red / Energy: 350/350 --------------------------------------------"You think you can escape my blade.."------------------------------------------- Lucy gave Zebulon a smile as she gratefully took the two new books from him then moved back over to where she was training at. Lucy decided to learn the dagger skills first seeing as it would be easier than throwing knives.
Lucy first opened the book and read up on the first technique which was called Fast Hands. Basically it was just learning to pul her weapon quickly out. So Lucy simply began to pull her dagger out then put it back in. she repeated this for quite a long time getting quicker and quicker at pulling out her dagger. She also used this time to pull her other weapons out faster and faster so she could get quicker with them too. Finally Lucy stopped pulling out weapons and putting them away so that she could move on to the next technique.
[1/1] (Fast Hands learned)
Now Lucy read up on the next technique which was called Fake Out. Basically it was just a bunch of feint strikes at the opponent. So Lucy pulled out her dagger and started to jab randomly at a tree making sure to keep her movements fluid and just about never ending. She practiced fake jabs and slices and many other things before she finally stopped thinking that she had got the technique down pat.
[1/1] (Fake Out learned)
Now Lucy moved on to the last Dagger technique she could learn which was called the Gut Hook. She read through the technique several times trying to imagine doing it in her head. Although it seemed basic the skill also seemed hard. But Lucy decided to continue learning it seeing as it would be useful.
[1/3]
Lucy now began to simply practice the motions of the technique. To do this she kept her eyes closed visualizing a person with a sword attacking her with a downward slash. Lucy then made the correct motion of bringing her dagger up to block the attack and push it up and out of the way. She then made the motion of bringing her dagger back down to slice her opponents stomach open.
[2/3]
Finally Lucy simply repeated the same motions over and over again for the next ten minutes seeing as it was important to get the motions down. Even though she knew she had the motions and everything right, Lucy still wondered if she could actually do the skill when the time came for her to use it. But before she could think for too long on that Lucy stopped and decided to move on to the throwing knife techniques since she still needed to learn them.
[3/3] (Gut Hook learned) -----------------------------"..But your fate has already been sealed.. There is no escape.."----------------------------------

Kato()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()
Trainee
Anima
Bard
Speed/Strength
5/5
(280/280)
Current clothing: Black Jacket, gray t-shirt, black worn out jeans, Black 'skater' shoes.
Kato couldn't help but overhear the female assassin bragging about assassinating eleven individuals. He nearly burst out with laughter, as if it were some kind of joke. Only 11? He had slain far more than that in his time. His anima rage showed itself on more than one occasion. Often ending with a pile of bodies inside of taverns. Or on street sides. He was an experienced fighter, even as a bard he was far greater in skill with a blade than some.. Or rather most sword master's of today's time. His blade Maximus could attest to that, as he had tasted the blood, and souls of countless individuals. But he had yet to encounter anyone really worth killing. That was until he came here to this nation, and saw all of these people before him. He now had the goal of gaining strength, so that he could one day slay opponents that had souls worth the effort. Though he would watch who he killed, careful not to slay anyone from this nation. He broke free of his thoughts and decided to return to his training.
[1/4] The key to the skill Metronome was being able to keep a rhythm, this wouldn't be difficult for a bard. He continued to tune his guitar as he read about the specific skill, and what it was meant to accomplish. Because he figured there was more to it than just keeping a beat.
[2/4] As he read he began to understand what this would allow for, it would mean he could keep track of time without a watch, which would help him realize when some kind of illusion that involves time was taking place.
[3/4] Kato pulled a black guitar pic from a pocket on the inside of his jacket, the pics black paint was worn due to overuse. He refused to use another pic until something happened to this one. Why? Even he didn't know. But that's beside the point. He began to strum downwards in a steady beat, making sure to keep the rhythm going.
[4/4] He continued to do this until he thought it had been nearly three minutes. He looked at his watch, and it had only been two and a half minutes. So he hid the watch and began again. The next time he looked to see the time he had perfectly timed the beat.
-Metronome learned-
[1/4] He flipped through the book looking at all of the 'D-ranked' skills. He found one that caught his interest, Echo sensing? This would allow him to essentially see in the dark, through a mental image he would gather through the sound waves he sends out.
[2/4] He kept reading, and absorbing the knowledge that was on the page. It wasn't very detailed, but it gave him all of the information that he needed. The sound waved that would be sent out would onlt bounce back, and around in 8 meters all around. One meter is around 3 feet, which meant that it would reach over 24 feet around. While that may not sound like much it would be enough.
[3/4] And this skill would allow him to use his weapon in ways he couldn't before. His weapon could only react to what he saw, so if he had a mental image of the area, then his weapon could react to the mental image of the 24 foot area. This would definitely come in handy.
[4/4] It was time for him to test the skill, so he closed his eyes and sat still for a moment, before he began to play a slow tune he had heard the other day in a tavern right after he had ran mazimus through the chest of a drunkard that tried to pick a fight. He began to see the area around him, not like you normally see things.. But as if it was sort of mapped out, and he could see the shapes of things, but no real specific details.
-Echo thing learned-
Katorin sat down his guitar on his lap, and placed the book on top of it, he was searching for a skill that would be worth learning. He didn't have any allies, so he had no need for boosting anyone's attributes, and he didn't want to lower the attributes of an opponent. He needed them at full strength otherwise he wouldn't get anything out of killing them. He also saw no point in learning something that decreased the energy cost in magic, the only magic he used would be his bard skills. But then he came across "Sonic annoyance."
[1/4] This particular skill caught his interest because it made a sound that would cause a loud painful buzzing noise in the targets ears. It would sound like it was coming from all around, so that would make it good for use against lycans, or other high sensed beings.
[2/4] All it would take is one note, so it wasn't even a song. One strum of the strings and the annoying sound would enter the enemies ears. He could use this for many things, counters, as a distraction, or possibly just to get someone's attention.
[3/4] He could see a hawk circling overhead, he figured it would be a decent target, for the time being anyways. He would be waiting patiently for it to circle in lower, and closer so that he could use the skill.
[4/4] Once the Hawk was within distance he played a single note and a loud buzzing noise could be heard all around, the Hawk almost went into a spazzam, as it was hearing the sound from all directions so it couldn't make out where the threat was coming from. It soon plummeted below the cliff edge hitting a rock... Then another, and another, until it would finally come to rest at the bottom of the mountain.
Katorin then approached his teacher. "I have completed the necessary bard skills. As for my exodus, I don't believe I will need any skills for Maximus. I can manipulate the direction he moves at will, so I don't believe the skills would really benefit me, simply because Maximus and I can already do more than any snake-sword expert could dream."
Kato didn't say this rudely, and he didn't mean for it to be. He was just stating the facts, because Anima had a connection with their exodus that even the greatest of weapon enthusiasts couldn't understand.
"Death to all who oppose me."
If you see this then you are the pickle god!
