The sound of her screeching was unearthly, as she backed away, cradling the tentacle stump. The lopped off remains still hung around its neck like a scarf, wiggling horrifically in its last throes of life. She ripped at her ritual robes, tearing it to shreds and using the shreds to tourniquette the tentacle. That hurt even more than the initial slice, and she let out a high pitched, painful scree.
This wasn't Malodore. She'd already known that much, but that was the moment she felt comfortable accepting it. This was a thief using its resemblance. Using Malodore for its own twisted needs..
And yet, in a strange, twisted way, part of her thought this Malodore was delightfully cruel. It was a thought she would feel guilty for, when this battle was over. But for now, she took to attacking it again, keeping her tentacles at bay. If it was going to die, perhaps it should be by her hands, not her easily removed appendages.
Riley faltered when she heard that word. The inhale of breath was sharp, and it stung at the tentacle that was severed. This wasn't Malodore. It wasn't. But of all the things it could have called her.. why.. that..
Her maul against its abdomen had less fight than she was intending. Doubt cluttered at her thoughts. It couldn't be in there. It was safe, back at home. Safe.
Malodore was safe.
Wasn't it?

Depending on your rank, this means that you can either attack twice in a row, use one move to heal and one to attack, or so on.

Cleansing both the spiritual and physical aspects, she was then given to the King as an adviser, the whisper in the King's mind that made sure all of her choices were fair and uncorrupted. Now that the King no longer has need of her, she has chosen to abandon her spiritual purity and take up arms to protect her beloved Kingdom. She's just regular ol' Riley now. Be warned.
The tentacle around its neck writhed deliciously; the severed stump splattered its clothing with ichor. Delicately, Malodore raised one long finger to its mouth, tasting the ichor with a quick lick of its tongue; its eyes half-closed as it savored the strange flavor.
Even as she struck back at it, it felt the flare of her pain within her - not just the physical, but the mental. Something it said? "Si, si, tresorina bella," it breathed, lips curving upwards in a bright smile as it turned, slashing its blade across her face, carving a line in her flesh - the blade was sharp enough that it would barely sting at first, until the edges of the wound opened and spilled forth their bounty.
It came to a stop, staring at her, waiting with bated breath for that moment to arrive.

The headbutt was replied with more cursing followed by Solia stumbling back. "Aughh, you kiss with your mouth not your fat head!" Rubbing her now bloody nose, Solia shook it off.
Gotta keep fighting.
"Singing is my day job." She paused after she swung with the harp again. "Well, as is my night job when I have some good company."

Even if Jason wasn't being attacked, he still felt the pain as Riyo's blade bit into Zanthvos arm. And hearing her say how under-handed his attack was, didn't help either.
"This is a war babe." The humanoid replied, his sword slicing through the air in hopes he could try and dis-arm Riyo so Jason could finish him off. Although weather Jason had the balls to do it was another question...
"Why else would you do such a terrible trade?" Jason asked her with her frown. "So what if it's all you know? What is to stop you from picking up a new trade?"
"Yo Jay, I'm all for converting the evil doers to the awesomeness of good, but is this really the time for a speech?"
"...It could work!"
"Doubt it"
"But it could!"
Yes, these two would banter even in the middle of a battlefield.

The sound of that smooth, beckoning voice calling her by that nickname started to unravel her. She'd been so clear about her mission. She'd been so sure of what to do. She should have had bodies lying at her feet by now. She should have been winning this war.
And this one. Single. Creature.
It was just as she'd always feared. The only true fear in her heart, manifesting itself into reality right before her very eyes. Malodore, there before her, bringing her to her knees.
The only person in this world with the power to truly destroy her, body and soul.
A strangled sound escaped her. She put her hands up against her ears; at least she could block out the sound of its voice. It couldn't reach her mind, in this place. It was her only victory in a world filled with her defeats.
Stop it. She whispered harshly. You have no right to call me that. She opened her eyes, and glared up at him. YOU DON'T GET TO CALL ME THAT -
The knife sliced across her face, silencing her instantly. She stared, unmoving, as the cut blossomed open and a sheet of blood coated her cheek.

Moriko entered the battlefield from the Green Kingdom without wasting any time at all. Looking to her left she spotted a familiar face and rushed over to help. She didn't remember their name, but she knew they were from the green kingdom and therefor allies. Quickly Moriko threw a punch at the enemy. Her hand balled in a fist, her clawed knuckles glowing with foxfire.

This was... well it wasn't really anything out of the ordinary of what one would expect while on a battlefield, but it still made Imryn feel completely out of her league. She was a scribe and information gatherer, not a fighter, though she was hoping to get through this at least. A nagging feeling in the pit of her stomach was telling her otherwise as her eyes scanned the field, trying to figure out what kind of odds they were up against.

There wasn't much to make Solia actually mad. But there were a few things.
But nothing Tiama made her that mad and it was ok.
"I'll take one little death if you're offering. But full death is kind of like a boner killer." Another swing.
"er- a proverbial one." Awkward, Solia had it.

The humanoid's tactic worked. He had successfully disarmed her, which left the ghoul to reach into her pocket with the other arm.
She had a gun.
"Listen to your friend. It's no use, really." She flipped the safety off. "You. You who has never spilled an ounce of blood. How dare you." Red eyes focused on Jason, uncaring as to whether his partner attacked or not. "I'd viddy a guess that you've had somebody to look after you for your whole life. Like that gentleman over there. I don't mean to pull the 'you don't know me' card, but think about it for a second. You can speak about change all you want, suggest that it's so easy for me to just stop a whole lifestyle at the drop of a hat, but are you really thinking about your words?"
The gun was lifted, aimed at his body. "Very early on in the game, I had to make a choice. Either I killed, or I was killed. These scars? Almost all of them are from one person. She was my first murder. It was not sweet. It was not sad. It just... Was. And that is what I have been since that day. I am living. Nothing more."

She had read about battles when she was growing up, but they were often in fictional stories and telling the gallant tales of heroes and their triumph over villains. They were so frightening though.
And when she finally managed to head East, the feeling of terror overwhelmed her, leaving her frozen and staring at the combatants as they went at each other with all their might. This was what the ending of the Truce had brought down upon them, fighting and slaughter and Olivia could feel the tears welling back up in her eyes. Why had she promised to go...
Olivia ducked down in a tight little ball, letting her arms cover her head in freight.
OOC
Name: Olivia Current HP remaining: 50/50 Damage/ Healing/ Defense done: DEFENDING for 2 [good luck >>] Target(s): HERSELF Rank Ability : none Kingdom ability: unavailable Character kingdom: Blue Character's Miasma Colour: Silver Character description:b[/] Olivia is a short pale girl with short blue curly hair and bright blue eyes. She is wearing a dealer's uniform from the Blue Kingdom consisting of a pair of simple black slacks, a blue shirt and a black vest. Forgoing the customary tie, she decided to wear her tan sash as a scarf and in her hair is a simple silver barrette with a bell dangling.
The only thing that hurt worse than listening to this slutty b***h try to yank out a tune from what must be horribly damaged vocal cords was the sucker punch she got from this newcomer with too many tails. The irritation of the former she could deal with; the anger the latter invoked was sudden and terrible. The singer was forgotten in favor of the fox, no snappy banter needed. Here was a target she could take her rage out on. Being jerked around by the unseen omnipotent, watching helplessly as a good man offered himself to be the first to fall, all of the people that just played along and let it happen.
Red edged Taima's vision as she threw herself at this new attacker, her fingers curled like talons. She heard a harsh scream and realized it was her own, everything she'd ever held down--not just tonight, but in her life of purposeful deception--coming to the fore in one moment of violence. She slashed and she scratched and she bit as she lost control, and when her shout turned into the raspy caw of a raven she stabbed with her beak until soft tissue gave way to deeper, thicker things. She saw the inky blackness of her own plumage lashing out again and again, and she continued when the fox girl stopped twitching. She let out the regret of a life not well lived, the guilt she felt when she could have taken action but chose not to, and she wouldn't be done with the fox's corpse until she decided was done.
And then she was done, and then she saw nothing at all.

Cautiously making his way onto the field, Aedan's eyes widened slightly--already blood marred the field of battle, and small skirmishes were already taking place. Not wanting to infringe on a battle already ongoing (it didn't feel right). He shifted, his stance vaguely defensive, to see if a new potential opponent entered the field. Time to see if he could make a more respectable showing, this time out the gate.
