Welcome to Gaia! ::

*WHAM.
Gatz kick connected heavily with Roan's cheek, snapping her head to the side with bone jarring power. Blood splashed across the floor in a neat arc before slowly, Roan turned her head back.
A slice of her skin had torn back from her cheek, but why it had done so from a mere kick wasnt immediately obvious until her head was fully turned back where it belonged. Once it was, the faint glimmer of blood smeared metal showed itself and she grinned, revealing the blood to have come from a spit in her lip thanks to her fangs*

Ow? Skin of steel. Another neat little trick stolen from my son.

*She let go of Gatz, dropping him to the floor*

Do find a better hobby Gatz. I am immortal and I intend to stay that way, I have far too much work to do to just die here. Especially against something as embarrasing as a chaos entity.

Rioushu felt his fist only brush Ice's skin, not surprised the guy could move so quickly. He didn't realize just what Ice had done to him yet, so he had positioned himself for a counterattack. Just when he was ready to charge, he started noticing a bit of pain coming from his fist. He felt his muscles relax and his tendons tighten, and Rio gritted his teeth out of the pain, but when he looked to Ice it was a look of thought. How could he have done this? I only just barely touched...oh. Rioushu said, realizing what had just happened.

Fortunately for the ex-ninja, when he was still a ninja he had a poison that did this very thing to someone, except all over their body, so he knew how to counter the effect. He grabbed his massive right hand with his left one, forcefully closing both muscle and tendon into a fist, almost crushing his own hand with the amount of force he was keeping it closed at. Once he felt the muscles start to harden and the effect start to wear off, he pulled out his leather gloves from his pockets, the same ones he used to pick up 'dropped' items. He put on the gloves and stretched his fingers out, looking at Ice. "Nice technique, though I doubt you'll be using it again. I'll let you attack this time." Rio said, it would be far easier with Ice attacking to land a crushing blow on him.

Looking up before Lilith spoke, Sierra was somewhat relieved in it not being urgent to leave, but she herself spoke quickly to Lilith, Gatz' third kick now either promising pain, or proving insanity. It isn't hard. She lowered to the ground, kneeling down to Dante, Ask yourself, what is it that you don't want to happen to this man, and what is within your power to assist? Do you think he needs first aid? Since it was somewhat important to understand triage, Sierra slowed down a bit to teach the succubus a couple of fine points in medical aid.

((This coming from Gatz of all people.))

((Sorry. Been away. Will post as both charries here.))

*Roan quirked a brow at Gatz, shook her head slightly, and let her celerity do its job. Her hands caught Gatz feet as they scythed up and she let his momentum push her back and up, her wings snapping out and beating down to aid her into the air. Hovering above head height, the span of her wings casting a large shadow on the floor over Gatz, Roan simply bade the darkness become sticky, liquid, like toffee, the idea being to draw Gatz into its hold while he was still off balance. Half her attention though was on Ice*



*Ice meanwhile glanced at Rio. The touch shoudl have crippled his hand for a good few days minimum, but he put it down to just HOW light his own touch had been. It didnt matter, and leather gloves wouldnt help - leather was made from hide and that in itself was natural.
At the invitation to attack, Ice snorted. He wasnt usually a combatant, and indeed did not go in for a close range attack even now. Instead, he showed off his name sake.

At the becoking of his will alone, pink eyes turning ice blue, Ice bade three massive spires of razor sharp ice to rise from the ground beneath Rio, intending to impale him, the entire area around Rio becoming coated with ice on the ground also, cold enough to freeze anything which touched it.*

Rio wasn't really surprised Ice didn't come in for a close range attack, with ice attacks that he could use from long range, why would he? But Rio's attention stayed at the matter at hand, readying himself for an attack from anywhere. He blinked as he felt the spires of razor sharp ice come out from beneath him, and actually almost did an anime fall. He jumped to not too far from Roan, doubting Ice would have the icy ground go that far an risk pissing off Roan during a fight. "Does everyone on this damn island have that exact same attack? The only thing different was the frozen ground." Rioushu complained. He then refocused his mind on Ice, charging at him with good speed, watching for any attacks from Ice.

"Hey, why are you kicking him?!" Lilith raged at Quint. "We need to wake him up. He know where Morri is!"

"Who do you think you are?! I bet this is your fault! Where were you just a minute ago?!"At the moment, Lilith wasn't too in touch with logic, and suddenly everyone around her because responsible for Morrigan's disappearance.

Liltih was confused.

"Wait... you're waking him up? Are you sure? Is that how it works?" Lilith actually wasn't sure how to do it; she had never medically aided anybody before in her life. She knew everything about the human body, but most of that knowledge was about how it came apart, how how it came back together.

"Well...!" she continued with her irrational indignation, "What are you waiting for? You can kick faster than that, can't you?"
