As the tiny girl's punch connected, it carried such a force with it that Bestiae had surprisingly skid and staggered back as he was sent reeling from the hit, each step trembling the ground around him. Roaring out, he shook it off, rushing forward as he aimed to slam his clawed hands down at Mei again, seeking to crush her between them and slam her against the ground as many times as he could before roughly tossing her away if he got a hold on her. It was clear that he had his focus dead-set on her, and likely wouldn't shift it unless severely provoked by the others. The dagger thrown by Surtr would have struck his scaly hide, but wouldn't dig deep enough to stay lodged in his leg and merely fall amidst the grassy field, though the scent of new blood would renew his fervor to slaughter.

Emilia looked over and let the dragon girl and lizard man do their own thing. No the mage who hid behind barriers, what interested her is what he threw. It was easy to see with her eye sight the marks that were on those daggers. The thing was she wasn't quite sure exactly what they were for. To be fair she had an idea perhaps, though it was not certain. The thing was his phasing ability was essentially a space time ability. That ability was a unique one and probably not seen too often. With the space time ability it stood to reason that he could perhaps teleport around. Might be what the seals were for, it would be better safe then sorry to assume they were. The daggers could actually be some explosion magic or something too, but if they were that it was no real danger to Emila. Either way it would be intelligent and easy to simply get rid of the daggers all together. So she caught the dagger easily as the throw was basically a human throw, then without a beat she quickly caught the other two. It was then she would turn to Surtr and speak."Perhaps if I had been another vampire your victory might have been assured. However today I guess you should chalk this all up to that you are just unlucky that I am your opponent."
She broke the daggers crushing the handles and the seals that were on them into almost fine powder. If it wasn't clear for Surtr, if she got a hold of him it wasn't going to end well. Emilia walked towards Surtr and once she hit the barriers, she would smash any in her war with her fist and smile at Surtr. "Lets see what that fire can do little boy."
Who: A vampire, a mage, and a lizard man! || Where: The Neutral Meadow || Thoughts: I'mma do it, I'mma tag him! || Ambience: Keep Your Eyes Open OOC: ||
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mei's tiny feet came to a skidding halt, the soft dirt being thrown up in her wake, as her little hand went to the top of her forehead. She looked excited and awestruck that her attack landed, and was watching the lizard man smack into the ground but keep sailing. She didn't even see Surtr or the vampire girl anymore, but her childish nature was also on how far the beast was hit to as well.
Her ear perked when they did start speaking, and she ceased her clapping for long enough to see their battle continue. There was some sort of dagger thrown her way, but it just bounced off her skin instead of piercing it. Mei cocked her head, wondering what the instrument was, and bent down to pick it up before it disappeared from her grip with Emilia's fervor. She pouted, longing to tag the one who had actually tagged her and to see what the dagger was all about, but alas she would deal with-
"Oop," Mei huffed as she felt her legs seized from under her. In the next second she was thrown numerous times into the ground, though strangely enough she was raising her arms and yelling happily. "Do it again!" she would yell as her face was hit into the dirt again, spraying up rock and gravel with her.
She giggled and laughed as her hair whipped, the creature throwing her far from it. Mei could make out she was careening toward Surtr, and would probably hit one of his seals if not go straight through and land on him in a massive heap. Therefore, she closed her eyes and opened her mouth wide as she shouted, "Mage ta-a-a-g!" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Location : Monstrous meadow Company : Mei, Emilia, an unknown giant lizard... Feelings : Playful...
...For out of the ground we were taken... for the dust we are...
As his daggers were crushed to dust Surtr seemed to frown. "A bit unnecessary..... really unnecessary actually..." He mused a bit saddened by the fact she had broken them. She then proceeded to make a show of force bursting through his little defense, an impressive show of strength actually. They wouldn't give her too much trouble. They were meant to work together so each barrier individually was on the weaker side. Though to be fair it was becoming obvious Surtr had yet to take the match seriously.
As she spoke her word about a matchup the smile seemed to returned as if he'd already forgotten about her destroying his personal affects. "What a confident one you are..." Surtr said playfully before she then seemed to challenge him. As she spoke he got chills down his spine. Man that was a cool line! Surtr himself was a clever man but his quips never seemed to carry that kind tone. Perhaps it was his lax demeanor? Regardless he never got to be the one to say badass things like that.
His smirk grew playfully and fire began to swirl around him as he was about to say something badass in return. His eyes would suddenly dart from Emilia and to an incoming little dragon. Surtr hadn't the time to dodge and all he could do was put a very tight close proximity barrier on his person. She collided with it and sent Surtr and her flying. The little fiery orb somehow managed to stay atop Surtrs head during this ordeal.
The now meshed pair would fly a good twenty meters before crashing into the ground. Surtr himself would have some bruising from this collision and his arms were now wrapped around Mei as if he had intended to catch her. He lay on his back with her atop him as fire raged around the two swirling and coating them both as if to prevent the pesky vampire from charging in. It's heat was intense but Surtr judged Mei would be just fine and easily able to withstand this. Especially if she used fire herself. "So you did tag me..." He said his hand attempting to give her a pat on the back as if to congratulate her. If she didn't escape the pat a mark would form on her back the same symbol that was on the daggers. It would be harmless to Mei and she wouldn't even feel it form though it would be there.
Surtr had noted her indestructability and aimed to gain himself a great shield. The ability to move to her at anytime would more than likely shift their interactions but Surtr himself wasn't getting so far. His guard was up and he was ready as the fire continued to swirl waiting to see if something dare charge through to meet them. His shield lay atop him for now at least and she was in a prime position to be moved to deflect an attack should she choose to linger.
Tracking Mei as she flew toward the others, Bestiae sluggishly stomped around to face the group. Slowly the huge brute would trudge over, snarling as he began to pick up speed, eventually dropping onto all fours as he charged at Mei, and by extension Surtr and Emilia, not caring if he trampled the vampire in his efforts to crush, rend, and toss about Mei's body. She seemed to be nigh indestructible, which meant he could do all he wanted and not be concerned about ending it too quickly.

Emilia smiled as fate decided to give her the upper hand. Not that she didn't already have it. As soon as the pair were launched into the air she would quickly take out needles strapped to her upper thighs. She would throw around twenty of them with extreme speed, her vampire strength obviously taking a big part in it. Before they even hit the ground it was most likely Surtr would be a partial pin cushion, while Mei would most likely be fine. Granted even if all of them hit Surtr, he would still probably be alive as they were just needles. Granted it would certainly hurt him in being able to move well. When they hit the ground she would smile again and speak only one line. "I'll have you fall for me." It was a little catchphrase to show that she is someone of elegance or "cool".
Who: A vampire, a mage, and a lizard man! || Where: The Neutral Meadow || Thoughts: ~Humming~ || Ambience: Keep Your Eyes Open OOC: ||
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As Mei was sent careening toward Surtr, it did not escape her that small precise needles were thrown her way as well. She might have been air headed half the time, but she didn't get to be one of the royal guard for nothing! Stretching her body far longer, she allowed half of the needles meant for Surtr to hit her instead (simply bouncing off her flesh as they were ordinary needles), and the other half were caught in her grip. When she tumbled onto the mage, she had to make sure not to poke him in the eye with the caught instruments.
Hitching a giggle, Mei looked to Surtr as she raised herself slightly on top of him. Her hair was wind whipped and it would have been frayed by the fire now surrounding her, but the small girl was born of something much stronger than fire and thus it did not affect her poorly. Instead the mystified girl looked about the flaming vortex before looking back to Surtr as he pat her back.
"I did! Say, I'm surprised you survived the impact. You've got some really spiffy magic, mage-man!" Mei bellowed out a laugh before getting up and dusting herself off. Her cornflower blue orbs swept over the lizard man, they easily adjusting through the swirls of flame, before resting on Emilia. She had no inkling of anything wrong with her person, especially since the only thing Surtr did was a nice pat on the back of congratulations! So, looking back to him, she happily said, "Hey, I don't think you're as fast as her. But you stopped me without killing yourself, so you're a pretty good match for the lizard man. So how about we switch for a second?"
Turning back toward Emilia, Mei waved her hand toward the vampire before putting it to the side of her mouth. "He-e-e-y, how about we fight for a second!" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Location : Monstrous meadow Company : Mei, Emilia, an unknown giant lizard... Feelings : Playful...
...For out of the ground we were taken... for the dust we are...
As the dragon knight caught all weapons coming his way Surtr seemed impressed. His mind was already swimming with ideas. She seemed to be quite compatible with Surtr and he was rather interested in executing some of those ideas. Though for now he would be mercy to her as he petite figure remained atop her. When the pat connected it would feel just like a normal pat and the mark would be placed. As she congratulated him Surtr seemed to let out a soft laugh almost like a giggle. "That nigh impenetrable hide of yours is quite so iffy too." He replied playfully returning her compliment with one of his own.
The girl seemed to wish to switch sparring partners. Surtr didn't see the harm it couldn't be that bad could it? He rose dusting himself off before leaning over so that he could whisper into Meis ear. "Deal, but only for a bit.... then we will play out next game." Surtr whispered before allowing the flaming sphere around them to dissipate. He locked eyes on the behemoth immediately. "Oi, amphibian guy!" Surtr yelled while leaping fire burst from his feet giving him a jet back boost to allow himself to put some distance before Mei and him. "Come fight me now" He said as his left fist thrust forward, out of it came a monstrous fireball that would have impressive force. It moved at a good speed by with the distance between Bestiae and Surtr it could be dodged with little difficulty. It was obviously a tactic designed to get the monsters attention.
Surtr stood ready and waiting his little orb of fire intently watching Emilia and Mei as if he didn't trust Emilia to remain occupied with Mei.
Bestiae hadn't paid any mind to the mage, at least not until a massive fireball was launched head-on toward him. He could have shakily swerved to avoid it, but the heat coming off of it just feel too good to pass up as he barreled straight into it. The force had staggered him from his charge, and he didn't seem to acknowledge the burning pain as he basked in the heat from the flames that dwindled on his scaly hide. Shaking himself, he roared out once again, not caring for the swap of fighters and charging once again toward Mei on a course clean through Surtr's location.

Emilia sighed as the dragon girl blocked her needles, she would have preferred to deal with her last. With the way the girl was it would be easy to convince her to leave with Emilia. "If that is what you want to do then go for it. Though I think for your sake you would have been better to fight those two first. I rather like you and don't really want to crush you at the moment." With that she would wait for the dragon to make her move, if they fought she surmised that would take much longer then fighting against the mage or the lizard.
Who: A vampire, a mage, and a lizard man! || Where: The Neutral Meadow || Thoughts: ~Humming~ || Ambience: Keep Your Eyes Open OOC: ||
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mei watched as Surtr threw a really big fireball toward the lizard man with ease. The tickle in her ears was still there from his whisper, and she was happy that she didn't have to fight him yet. He was so nice! It didn't seem to deter the werebeast though, since he went straight through the wave of fire and was still tromping toward her. He would still have to go through Surtr now that he was charging, but that was okay. She was sure the mage could handle himself. Well, she hoped anyways.
Turning her attention to Emilia, she smiled wide at the girl's words. "I like you too! Say, how fast can your eyes track?"
Just as she had uttered the question, Mei was gone in an instant. It seemed as if she teleported, and rightfully so, as she was right in front of the vampire in another moment. Her smile was still there but also her fist that was covered in some sort of electricity. Swinging precisely, it would go straight through Emilia's head if she wasn't careful. Seeing as she was a vampire, Mei was sure even if she couldn't track her Charge of Light she would still be able to dodge enough with a tilt of the head. The dragon intentionally targeted such a spot so it was easier to dodge, and she would never have dreamed of doing it to Surtr though the lizardman was debatable. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

...For out of the ground we were taken... for the dust we are...
The behemoth of a were burst through the fire with little difficult as it resumed it's charge. Surtrs eyes seemed to narrow. These enemies were all pesky not his type of foes personally. Though he wouldn't continue to play around. Seemed Bestiaes hide was impressive enough to withstand the fireball so he'd see how he liked the heat. Surtr would take in a deep breath his chest seeming to puff up far more than biologically possible.
"Let's turn up the heat" He mused just before exhaling and as he did a monstrous amount of blue fire burst forth. In a massive cone. The heat from this was immense and it's blue color only reflected that. It would be a totally different animal now and Surtr surmised it would burn through that hide defense or at least cause some significant damage. The amount of fire he expelled rivaled even a great wyrm in strength and size. It was truly a display to behold. The air and ground seemed to hiss with displeasure at this display of raw power. Surtr was hoping to use this display to grab the attention of the best and direct him towards Surtr.
As Surtr breathed deep, Bestiae continued his charge, barreling clean up to the mage as the man let out an uproar of blue flame, dead in front of Bestiae. The huge influx of heat to his vision effectively blinded him as he caught fire, roaring out in pain as the flames burnt down through his hide. He had managed to keep a pretty straight line, but it wasn't where Mei stood, it was where she had been. Onward he charged, stumbling and sliding against the field before smashing his back against a large rock. There he laid for a good few moments, catching his breathe and letting the pain die down before he stood and roared out, snatching the rock up and violently hurtling it toward Surtr. It seemed that had gotten his attention, and all the hate that came with it!

Emilia focused on Mei and while she couldn't track that speed fully, she could slightly. But even that was not needed as it was clear where Mei was going. She did not move at all as expected Mei appeared right in front of her, that kind of speed was somewhat hard to control. She figured it would be difficult to turn if not impossible. Instead of dodging Emilia raised her arm and grabbed Mei's arm. She would not only stop the attack from hitting her but now she had a hold of the girls arm. With that Mei would be stuck as Emilia would not let go. If any electricity happened to travel from Mei's fist down the arm and into Emilia, it would mostly be not felt. Though any damage it did would pretty much heal right away. "I did say I like you, so I apologize in advance for this. Its going to hurt a lot. Your body seems quite hard and it would take a lot to break through it. However your insides are still quite vulnerable."
Emilia then would apply maximum pressure to the arm squeezing it quite hard to break the armored skin. However that was not the only thing she would do. She would also use her vampire strength to twist the arm to the point that the bones inside would break. It would be a pain to break through this sort of armor, however by using enough strength one could cleverly break the bones inside if done right.
Improved Strength and Speed: Vampires possess strength and speed much higher than that of a human, complete with incomparable grace, a different sort than the animalistic fluid nature of lycanthropes. Older vampires have greater power and speed than younger. Vampires often seem much faster than they truly are, however – with their mind tricks, they can be across the room in what seems like an eye-blink. Neonate/Fledgling - they can harness 15% person of their vampire strength Infancy - they can harness 30% of their vampire strength Elementrary - they can harness 45% of their vampire strength Adolescence- they can harness 60% of their vampire strength Young Adult - they can harness 75% of their vampire strength Adult - they can harness 90% of their vampire strength Elder.- they can harness 100% of their vampire strength
Improved Senses: Vampires new and old possess senses much greater than that of humans. Even the newly dead have better hearing than most dogs, and their sense of sight is much greater as well. However, they do not have a sense of taste as they cannot ingest food. Neonate/Fledglingtheir senses are 15% better than oher races Infancy their senses are 30% better than other races Elementrary - their senses are 45% better than other races Adolescence- their senses are 60% better than other races Young Adult -their senses are 75% better than other races Adult - their senses are 90% better than other races Elder.-their senses are 100% better than other races[
Heightened Endurance and Resistance: Vampires are resistant to many things – in fact, regular bullets will hardly slow them down and will heal nearly instantly. Wounds dealt by silver and lycanthrope/vampire claws and fangs, however, will heal with near-human slowness. Damage inflicted by fire and holy items backed by faith, such as crosses and holy water, cause permanent scarring. Neonate/Fledgling can endure and resist 15% more than other races Infancy can endure and resist 30% more than other races Elementrary - can endure and resist 45% more than other races Adolescence- can endure and resist 60% more than other races Young Adult -can endure and resist 75% more than other races Adult - can endure and resist 90% more than other races Elder.-can endure and resist 100% more than other races

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mei didn't know much about vampires, hell she had just befriended one back in Durendal, but she didn't think it was wholly plausible for any to track her perfectly when she was using her abilities. Especially when she attacked with said ability and was caught instead of dodging out of the way. It was strange for her not because of the act itself, but for the simple fact the shockwave alone from gripping her arm, not even her fist, was enough to explode the ground with her stopped momentum in front of her.
It didn't bother her, really, when the vampire began to squeeze her flesh. The dragon blinked, not understanding what Emilia was saying about her insides being vulnerable. The vampire had misinterpreted the concept of her endurance, thinking it only a dragonhide ability of some sort, and failed to see it as it was: simple endurance. Dragon bones were not so easily broken, especially not from a simple vampire. She also failed to realize that lightning burned hotter than fire: the largest weakness for vampire-kind.
Mei watched silently as the vampire continued to apply pressure before cocking her head and opening her mouth. Immediately a burst of lightning exploded from her lips. It would explode in an arc around her, making Emilia let go or be burned alive, and it was fortunate that the dragon's ability was so concentrated for instead of burning the meadow around her, it simply left the area barren of wheat. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
