Welcome to Gaia! ::

The golems stood sentry around the camp and Torment sat at the exact center. The Golems would crumble at first light. Torment was in deep meditation, extending his perceptions beyond the norm as a sort of warning system to detect anything that can be seen, heard, or smelled within five hundred feet of his location. He didn't need to sleep, merely rest as he was currently doing.

((If I didn't state my attack, then what the hell are those? I sent acid to hit the wolves and ******** 'em up, but you ignored it. And hell yeah after you started ignoring me I'm going to do nothing, cause my posts don't matter anyhow. Yes, you RP the characters as ignorant, but you don't prove yourself to be an ignorant ******** as an RPer along the way. Don't give me that bull, I tried to ******** work around your ignoring me but you Just. Kept. Doing. It. Warlocks deal only with darker energies, though not inherently evil. They don't cast spells so much as evoke effects. An Archmage can be of any alignment because it is a descriptor of how they work what they do, not their alignment.))

Torment didn't speak for a long while after she had spoken, but when he did she would perceive his voice coming from behind her. His lips would not move as he spoke, "Your hypothesis is correct. The flows of mana are indeed far from whimsical in these areas, dark and brooding. If you so desire I can enforce the perception that our thoughts are known to the other, allowing you to know my intentions. As for what I do, you must understand all magic takes time, though mine less so." As the sun began to fall over him his eyes slowly opened, several alterations rippling across his body with the dawn of the new day.

((Look, Torment isn't even a mage at all. If you've been reading the actions you'd notice he is not casting spells but altering perceptions. A mage uses mana in order to create effects, Torment channels mana to alter perceptions because he can not yet do it through force of will alone. I call him an archmage simple because people think of it and know he must be a powerful spellcaster. Aside from this, everything is relative. I may call him a archmage, you might call him a crackpot, someone else may call him a fool. I can call him whatever I like because he is my character.))

((If ya really want to know what Torment is in D&D terms, he would have no specific class because what he does cannot be defined by D&D any longer. He is much like a psion in that he uses limited psionics to alter reality to conform to his perceptions, but mana is needed to catalyze the reaction. Beyond this he also can be considered an Incarnate from Magic of Incarnum, most of the Soulmelds being used taken from it almost exactly, for now.))

((As for your friend, Torment is not a warrior, he is mainly a spellcaster-though he has evolved over time to become more than just a sorcerer. Shar`Addan is the main combatant. As for the mistake, I'm not seeing it. That post was made when there was no combatants and he was utilizing his ability to change which Soulmelds are bound at any given time. As for his question, a move would generally be a technique that can be performed and perhaps even incorporated into a combo attack, where an attack is generally any hostile action directed at a target. Don't you dare try and say I only made moves and no attacks, and therefore didn't need to be responded to. Even if they were moves, and not attacks as they were, you still have to respond. I don't see how you can misinterpret acid hitting the wolves as anything but an attack. Furthermore, I don't see how you can be incompetent enough not to reply to it. The only one making mistakes here is you. I have had several people review this as well, and all but one said to just nuke you all and be done with it. The other said to pillage whatever you have, nuke you, and then be done with it.))

((I'll note I take offense to having any ties placed upon my character with DBZ. I play a Tier I character, granted, but such a label is uncalled for. If he would like to make such a claim to my face, let him do so and not through a messenger boy.))

((Now, if you're you're finally done being an ignorant ********, drop the subject and lets just RP.))

Under his influence perceptions were altered, shadows of beasts flitting through the forests beyond as three figures began to emerge. These three were golems like the ones from the previous day, but these were formed of the detritus from the forest floor mixed with the soil and insects in the area. They could only take two hits, but they were much faster and more versatile. Torment himself kept his wings wrapped around him as he slowly began walking towards the pass, not waiting for the others. His head fell as his perceptions began to stretch out from his body, a kiss meeting the light of the ring upon his finger.

((Dude, I didn't ask for you to edit because I didn't like the result, I asked you to edit because you were wrong. Its a simple ******** mistake, get over it. If I had made a mistake and you wanted me to correct it I'd say, "Oh, my bad, didn't see that. I'll edit." I wouldn't make a bitchfest out of it. As for your threat, your claim is impossible, so it means little to me. Can't rip the soul from a body when the soul created that body. Also, you need to remember that in this guild you are a member and I am a Vice-captain. Keep that in mind.))

Two of the three golems stayed by his sides, one in front and one behind, a guard of sorts. The other one darted ahead, scouting out the terrain, its own perceptions relayed back to Torment in real time. He had a grasp of his surroundings that was unparalleled by mortals, and slowly this grasp began to force perceptions to alter once more. As mana flared around him and channeled through him his form began to waiver as he began enforcing the perception that he simply could not be perceived. He was the only one actively perceiving himself, so this would be easy, and if any were it wouldn't be that difficult. In all functions it seemed to be an invisibility spell, but in no ways could he be detected or perceived, going beyond simple invisibility.

((Sorry for the delay in my reply. How many can be seen as of yet? Or at least how many are attackign the scout?))

As the goblins came out behind the Golem it stopped and glanced to them, perceived by Torment through the golem and his orders relayed back to it. It darted at them with incredible speed, its goal to slam into them, essentially running them over with its speed as it returned to its master. If it failed or was destroyed, it was no major loss. Torment himself was beginning to call upon mana to channel through his form, an orb forming in each upturned palm, one a swirling white and the other a pale blue.
