Over the last few months, a world-wide epidemic of information in the form of a flyer has been circulated. Absolute interest has been buzzing around on the mouths of the people. Heroes from all around have traveled long and far just simply to gaze upon the woman who is willing to pay a hefty sum to a small band of adventurers willing to put forth their lives for a cause unknown. She is looking to form a sacred band that is said will protect the New World Order. Whether the character in question has gazed upon one of these flyers or heard by word of mouth of such grandeur of adeventure is unknown. Also the reason for coming to such a town to exhibit the woman who proclaimed a large sum of money to all those involved may also be unknown. However, each character has shown up by their own leave as well as their own means; mayhap, they already lived in the stirring village. Each tale is their own, though.
The village itself, located in a rural area of Pennsylvania, is a sleepy little town. It's name is Bernville and it was once located off of a commonly used road. There is a common road used to travel in the direction of Bernville, but it is not as quaintly known to most unless within the area. The reason behind holding such a meeting in this area is unknown to all except the woman who desired such a meeting. The town has a lively population of at least three hundred, but has drastically increased as the gathering day approached. There are only two inns located in the town, The Grinnin' Sun and Sleepytime. There a few weapons shops that contain mediocre weapons and only one, name simply The 'smith's, that is run by a talented half dwarf. Trinket shops as well as well-developed library are also located in town. A few bars are scattered around the town as well, but the only one noteworthy of being rough-and-tumble is The Sloppin' Bucket.
The day is crisp and slightly foggy. The sun appears to be fighting a losing battle to creep through the clouds. The wind is nearly almost nonexistant. The soil crust up into the air from the dry weather that has crept in during the week. The air smells of rain though and the fog is rather promising of that as well.

((deleted mine. Cmon people, let's delete all your posts and clean the thread up a bit. razz ))
Alesia walked into the new town. She didn't know of the name or what was in this town. Just that there was a woman offering a lot of money for a task. And at the moment she could really use that money. Sure, performing brought her some money, but something extra was appreciated. And as she didn't have anything else to do, why not see what it was all about ?
The town was quite small. But that was only good. Alot less likely to get lost that way. Only one inn was visilbe from were she was walking. "The Grinnin' Sun" Alesia said out loud. "Sounds good enough..." Came right after that as she walked towards it.
Inside it was quite busy. Almost all tables were already taken. Mostly filled with drinking and loudy travellers it seemed. Probably all here for the same reason as she was here. But it didn't matter. Most didn't seem capable of a good fight anyway. "Got any wine ?" She asked the bartender. With a grin and a small nod he put a glass in front of her, filling it with a rather cheap wine. It wasn't too common to drink something like wine anymore. Most just kept to beer and rum. "How much ?" She asked, and the bartender replied with "Two dollar". "That's expensive..." She replied in return. "Wine is rare in these parts" was enough reason for her to place two dollar on the counter, take the glass and walk to the only empty table left.
Now Alesia finally noticed that she kind of stood out with her clothes. Reddish-pink and two small sticks in her hair, clothes looking like that from a peasant. Or in her case, a monk.

((Lol, I already deleted all but the ones on the first page))
Sora sat still in the treetops, gazing at the town, with his gatling gun beside him. "Aww great, this place is crowded........... I hate crowds......."
He sighed, and pulled his gun onto his back before standing up. "Well, might as well make myself known....."
Sora jumped out of the tree, landing on the roof of a short building he assumed was a house. He continued to leap to other roofs until he landed on one of the two larger buildings, which he assumed was one of the two inns, but he didn't know which. However, when he landed on the roof, his foot slipped, and he almost slid off, except he managed to grab the edge of the roof before he fell compleatly off. He hung there for a second before swinging his gun off his back. He stared at it for a second, then threw it straight over the center of the building, swinging himself up to follow it. He landed on the roof, with his gun at his side, and caught the stares of many people. He shrugged and sat on the roof and begain to observe the town.
The first thing that caught his attention was one of the bars with a few fighting drunkards in front of it. Sora made a mental note to stay away from this towns bars, which was easy since Sora didn't like being drunk anyways. Next he caught the sign for the other inn, Sleepytime. "Geez, names sure have gone downhill these past few years........ Maybe it's just the town....." Around this point it finally occured to Sora that he could see the whole town clearly from his position, which meant that the whole town could see him fairly clearly too. He sighed and leaned back, anchoring himslef to the roof with tiny barbs of metal. He decided he might as well enjoy sitting up where he was until someone yelled at him to get down.
