Your typical human settlement. They originally came to the mountains in search of gold viens but as they dug into the mountains they broke through into one of the many drow tunnels. Since the first encounter with the children of Lloth the human settlers have built high wooden walls and barracades to protect them from the outside threats. The settlers have since then been told by their local priesthood to kill any spiders they find, for fear that they are spies of the demon queen.
Black Fall's history is a simple one. Lord Black Fall, led a caravan train into the mountains in search of gold. The town was at first a simple trading post but after the raids began it turned to an isolated little village. The people of Black Fall and suspicious of any strangers who pass through and even more suspicious of any who intend to enter the mountain. They do however enjoy a drink and it is tradition for one intending to marry to bring back a precious jewel from the mountain caverns, the more noble the women the grander the jewel. The current record of which was held by a Thomas Nutt. He married the blacksmiths daughter by bringing her father back a purple jewel the size of a of sheeps skull.

A massive wooden wall stood in front of him. He jumped up and caught onto a loose piece of wood hanging from the wall, he used it to swing himself up over the wall. He looked around whispering to himself in Absytal, he saw a guard pass thru the shadows... He spun behind a nearby structure... He heard the man draw closer... Closer... CLOSER! The guard walked around the corner and was met by the icy grip of Death... He laid the body down and observed it closely, his body began to copy every detail... Another guard walked around the corner, he saw what was happening and turn and ran. He jumped onto a lanturn post and swung off of it landing right in front of the guard, he reached foreward and jammed the mask unto his head, "Happy, no funny business" he said to Rama, in his high human voice "Ugh i hate this" he growled.

The mans body convulsed franticly as Rama took control. His hair grew long and black till it reached to the back of his knees. Ramayaga cracked it's new neck slightly "Just be happy their weren't any more guards... Humans tend to get a bit jumpy when there is a pile of bodies by the wall." It waved a hand across the mask and it faded from sight so that the man looked normal. The hair withdrew rapidly and changed back to normal. Rama drew the mans sword and looked at it's reflection in the tarnished metal. The man wasn't very handsome and his left eye was scared with three lines, he also had a full beard and notch out his ear. "Disgusting creature, when we get back I'm getting a new host." It sheathed the sword and looked at Sasori before coughing and adjusted it's usually echoey voice to speak as the man did. "All righ' there we ar'... Oh by the gods listen t' this bastards accent! Yu' could cut a lump o' meat wit' it!" It placed a hand across it's temple, though it appeared he was rubbing something a inch infront of it. "Now accordin' to the memory of this oik, yo' name is Framnir BlackIce and ours, sorry mine is Yarmen RedFork... Who t' hell came up wit' these names?" Rama grabbed Sasori's head and flooded him with the memories the two shared, including how they both acted and mannerisms.

"Aye ye smelly ba'tard son o' a b***h!" he said, punching Yarmen's arm as the two would often act "Say..." he said, his voice returning to normal for a second "What'll happen to that body when you ditch it? Will i have to kill it?" he said with a glint in his, Framnir's, eye.

Rama had a thought, before returning to it's usual echoey voice "No need... This mortal is old and has a drinking problem. It's liver is practically pickled. So we'll take some poison before we leave. Make it look natural." Shifting the voice once more Rama looked at Sasori "Now we best fin' a good bloke who can be easil' corrupted by the promise of power..."

Rama found that the charter was actually open to the public and the leader of the town was actually decided by a one on one fight. It smiled before it's face reverted to an annoyed one. The list of rules was long and complex and most favored the current leader.
4: The leader may chose his weapon first.
8: The leader is permitted a shield.
14: The leader may chose the terrain.
It went on like this for awhile. At the end of it the village leader was better armed and better prepared than the challenger. This was going to be difficult. Ramayaga decided to send a message back to the matron. It carefully tied in to a rat, who's mind Rama had twisted to become and obedient servant and sent it off.

Having been at the village for a long time, Ramayaga had finally got a chance to fight with the current leader. The arena was in the center of the town hall, the floor was covered in sand in a large stone ring which was to be the battle area. The current leader, a mountain of a man named 'Krom,' wore a lot of armor and wielded a large axe which was said to be enchanted. Though to an expert like Rama it was only a very shiny and expensive toy with no magical properties of any kind.
"So Yarmen, after all this time as a gate guard you decided to try a make a name for yourself?" Rama looked at the man and selected a weapon of the few crude ones it was permitted. It chose a short sword before turning to Krom "Do I need t' give ya an answer?" Ramayaga looked at the large man and noticed his eyes were glazed over. It seemed that Krom wasn't the true head of the town but under a spell so that someone else could use him.
As the battle began Krom charged at Yarmen. The fight lasted a long time, with krom swinging madly as Yarmen slide past attack never once going for a strike. Until the point when Yarmen threw his short sword between the visor plates of Krom's helm. The large man fell to the ground dead, there was a brief silence before a cheer from the crowd.
On the edge of it's senses Rama felt a small sum of magic build up in the crowd. The weak sorcerer tried to pierce the barriers around Rama but to no avail. Rama looked at the source, it was the local priest who was trying to manipulate him. It was likely that the man as tired of simple living and decided to rule the town through others and not dirty his hands. It reminded Rama of itself. Rama's own magic shot up the trial and burnt out the mind of the priest, reducing him to a brain dead lump.
Later there was a celebration in which Rama was asked to give a speech. It changed it's voice to normal after all this time "Well now where to begin? We suppose we should be honest. The Yarmen you all knew is dead..." Some members of the crowd who were paying attention looked shocked were as a few who weren't or ere too drunk cheered. With a wave of it's hand Rama changed to normal, his robes and long hair felt comfortable after all this time "We are Ramayaga and you are all now citizens of Qu'ellar Alaenduis. Obedience is not asked but required, all against this new rule will be tied to a stake and burnt. Any questions? Good..." It's task was done, the law of the town was clear that any may challenge the leader but as several stood to oppose, Rama raised a hand and shot several bolts of magic missile across the room. Each man lay dead with large burns across their chests.
As day broke the entrance to the caves were opened and the towns folk were force to mine out large deposits of crystals. Ramayaga however had to return to the household of its Matron, but to ensure that no one ran it had persuaded a tribe of ogre to guard the surrounding area and by persuaded, Rama had simply placed them under a powerfull charm spell. It then headed into the caves back home, in it's bag it carried a large jewel to prove it's task was done.

[[I'd also like to know what the hell is Sasori playing as? Because I don't remember him having any characters, or any that were accpeted at least. And by the sound of it, he has some sort of dexterous character with doppelganger powers.
I'll let you know, I am not happy reading this thread at all]]
