Behind a small, simple hut in one of Miyr's many forests lies a waterfall of pristine beauty and clarity. But beyond the foaming waters of this miracle of nature lies a secret...an area blessed by powerfull magics, which makes it impossible to die within its confines. Vincent, a powerful paladin and the one responsible for the blessing, has found this area perfect for training new and upcoming heroes. Taking it upon himself he has posted fliers around the town. It just so happens that you come accross one such flier. It tells you of the magic of the waterfall and that Vincent has extended his hand to all those needing training in their respective arts: Sword and Shield, Magic, even the mysterious specialty arts possessed by many a strong adventurer.
The Waterfall Dojo is now open...

Entering the dojo beside the waterfall, Darius lets the flier in his hand slowly fall to the ground as he bows formally to Vincent in greeting. "It has been a while since I have seen a dojo, especially one this nice. I hear this area is famous for its unpredictable dangers and felt I might be a bit rusty when it comes to adventuring. Perhaps I may challenge you to a sparring match to refresh my memory?" He said while wobbling slightly on his left leg. Steadying himself he grinned expectantly hoping to not be denied.

Vincent bows to Darius in respect as he pulls a token from his belt. "It wouldn't be in your best interest to fight me right off the bat. Especially if you're all that rusty." Vincent holds the token between two fingers and grins, "A test, of sorts." A quick snap of his fingers sends the token flying, where it hits with a small metallic *c***k!* on the stone floor. The coin then violently explodes in a cloud of smoke. As the smoke disipates a small goblinoid creature stands there. It stares at you out of the corner of one wide, slightly twitchy eye. The other stares off into space, glazed and unfocused.
"This is Boolg. I rescued him from some interplanar beast of ultimate super darkness and now he has sworn to fight for me." Boolg wimpers at the mention of the beast, but says nothing else, "He has been magically enhanced to give you a run for your money, but fear not, there's still no way he could kill you..."
"Hey! That's not fair!" Boolg shouts in protest, but to no evail.
Boolg, Goblin Warrior [9]
Attack: 4
Defense: 1
Combat: 2 (1d6)
Life: 2 (10)
Magic: 0
Equip: 0
Abilities: None
Actions: Smash
Spell: None
Boolg draws his sword and does his best T-rex impersonation...which in a strange turn of events sounds like a perfect copy of the sonic boom-roar of the great beast. Vincent's eyes go wide in surprise before Boolg squeaks out a "'scuse me...". Vincent puts his head in his palm and sighs...
Before we can continue you will need to post your stats in the same manner as I posted Boolg's. Then you will need to post your attacks/actions/spells/whatever that you do this round. For this purpose I will post Boolg's round.
Boolg
Attack: Darius (4 damage)
Action: Smash (Darius)
Dice: Defence
Hp: 10/10
Ap: 0
Mp: 1
Normally I would post the dice roll with the attack description, but I had to edit this and it won't let me now. So I'll post the dice roll next.

Darius falls backward from the little goblin's attack. "Woah there! It's not nice to hit an old man suddenly like that." Darius adjusts his stiff leg and with some slight effort stands up again. Turning towards the goblin he smiles slightly. Suddenly, without further hesitation, he launches himself forward unleashing a barrage of slashes toward his bewildered foe.

((Well done. Witht he combination of your defence and your dice you perfectly defended against his attack. And though you did not kill Boolg (he survived with a pitiful 1 hp) it is obvious that you will win this fight. Now onto something else.))
Vincent smiles at Darius' offensive. He claps lightly as he pulls the little goblin's coin seemingly from nowhere. "All right, Boolg. I think he's proven his point." Vincent says casually. Boolg twitches slightly and moans as his life energy and physical form retreat to the coin that bore it. "Well, Darius...you seem to have what it takes to be a great warrior...some day. For now you're a rusty, old man." Vincent says with a smile to show that he's joking. "Now, do you have any questions? I can even answer questions partaining to other fields of study. Such as magic and special attacks. Or I can summon more creatures and go into more advanced tactics."

"Don't worry, I've always loved to learn a bit from you youngsters, heh in fact I feel I have assessed enough. Though by all means feel free to contact me whenever you want a challenge yourself. There are rumors your an elite, means I'll meet you again I'm sure. Till then drink to honor Vincent, Drink to life, Drink to combat!" With that he limps toward the exit of the dojo passing beneath the waterfall instead of to the path beside it.

Vincent smiles and bows as Darius limps his way from the dojo, "Till we meet again then...young man." Vincent gives a small chuckle and goes back to his own studies, prepairing for the next pupil to enter his dojo.

Varnis walks into the Dojo, as he looks around to find Vincent. Finding him in his studies, he waits for a moment for him to finish, instead of being rude and interrupting him.

Vincent, only appearing to be in his studies, is more or less absorbed in reading a small diary. Whether the book be his or anothers is undetermined, as there is no name on the book that can be seen. Looking up for a moment Vincent peaks over the edge of his book, "You said you had something to ask me." Vincent states more than asks as he sets the diary down, "Please, by all means. Pull up a chair and ask away." mrgreen

Varnis had grabbed a chair as he walked up over to where Vincent was sitting at, and sat down as he looked at the diary for a moment, then looked back to Vincent. "The main thing that I wanted to ask you was because of something I had heard earlier." He stopped for a second. "There are people from other dimensions, and it seems as if you are not from here. Are you from one of these other dimensions?" He asked as he waited for his reply.
((Oooohhh... Reading other people's diarys... >.>))

"Another dimension?" Vincent chuckles lightly, "Hardly. I come from far to the north. I was once the Captain of the Paladins of the Emerald Fist in the Kingdom of the Emerald Hills." Vincent shifts uncomfortably, but goes on nonetheless, "Our kingdom was attacked by the eastern Kingdom of Kestral. Their forces outnumbered us a hundred to one. It was no surprise to me or our men when they managed to plow through our defences like a hot knife through warm butter. In the end, Kestral retreated. But the losses were disastrous. Of the seventy-five thousand inhabitants of the Kingdom of the Emerald Hills...twenty-one survived. Not twenty-one thousand...but twenty-one...period." Vincent reaches over and picks up the diary, showing it to Varnis. "This was once my fiancee's. She was killed by one of the archers as he was retreating...She died in my arms." He places the diary down once more, "After that, I disbanded the Order, and came to Miyr to start a new life. I've found it enjoyable. Cursed swords and daily attempts on my life aside." He chuckles at his attempt at a joke...

Varnis looked at the diary as Vincent spoke. "Those cowards. They still attacked you as they retreated. I am sorry for your loss." He said after Vincent finished speaking. "But why would he retreat after they had killed so many?" He shifted in his seat, thinking he was starting to ask too many questions, but there was still one more that he had to ask. "Why not build your forces back up, and take out Kestral?"
