Oaken Vista: Not far from City Center, Oaken Vista plays host to Citadel Creek University, a private college known for its Metahuman, magical, and archeological studies programs. It is also known to give vast scholarships to the monetarily disadvantaged who excel in school across the nation, netting it donations that support its programs as well as a highly intelligent and determined (for the most part) student body. The neighborhood around the University is a wealthy one, with vast manor-like homes and fancy restaurants, but despite relatively regular police patrols it has suffered criminal incursions by the Ghasts and the long-reaching Rimefrost Coven. Both kidnap innocents, albeit for different reasons, and both fight over magical items that belong to neither of them, causing destruction and civilian casualties left and right.
CC University has a great museum of items its students and faculty recovered from across the world, but these items are constantly being stolen and many are destroyed in the process despite the hiring of a large security staff. Between the Ghasts, the Coven, and enterprising villains, heroes have a tough job keeping this area from turning into a war-torn Red district, which would cripple to college's reputation and deal a severe blow to the city.

Dorian had Arrived back to Good old CCU, He gives a Sigh as he steps out of his small cheap car " Ahhhh. It's good to be home after that Ordeal" He says, but suddenly a very strange voice popped in his head. " Dorian what are you doing , Your suppose to Take care of Evil in the world not lounge about in some Boring Architecture " Dorian scowled slightly about the little Hitchhiker he picked up " Im setting up a Headquarter! OK." Dorian said aloud. The Voice Replied "Ah I see Dorian Smart move". Dorian gave a small smile...he had just won a battle for himself over the Sword, Known as the Law-giver.
Dorian opened the door to his Dorm and sat down, and there is a letter addressed to him from the Dean of CCU
Dear Dorain E. Warhawk

Nekros
Nekros pulled his black hearst into the Oaken Vista museum parking lot. He looked back at the coffin giving it a small smile. "Sorry you can't go with me.......but I certainly can't carry a coffin in there." He joked stepping out of his vehicle. He wasn't wearing his normal clothes, instead he was wearing more college type clothes and a large black backpack.
Nekros entered the museum with a notebook in hand and pen as if he was a student and he wondered the exhibits somewhat aimlessly. "Found ya..." he whispered staring into a glass case. He stared at an ancient grimiore already knowing what to do to obtain it.
He walked around the museum finding as many skeletons that he could use possible. The villian walked into a nearby bathroom and opened his bag grabbing a black trench and his mask throwing them on. Once complete he took out a small case containing bones of a tiny dog, he gave the creature life and opened a nearby air duct.
After a few minutes the lights began to flicker knowing it was time Nekros walked out of the bathroom. "Time to bring life back to this dust heap." Nekros chuckled as the lights completely turned off.

I shall turn this city...Into an Inferno
Silva sighed slightly as he walked among the displays in the museum, each one containing different artifacts, some dangerous, some not so dangerous and some that were jsut peices of junk that people thought looked interesting. it was at this time that he noticed the lights begin to flickerr, then go out completely and he sighed slightly, he had come here to look at the different artifacts and learn about them and now someone and decided to hit the museum at the same time.
True he could tell what they were after since only the Coven and ghosts entered this area and most of the time they stole artifacts pertaining to either of their arts and since neither had been spotted in the area recently it could only mean a soloist and that he was here for something specific. It was then that he remembered seeing a grimoire a bit back and decided to go over there and wait for the man to show himself, of course he'd put his armor on once he got to his destination so that the other villian didn't know who his real self was.

Nekros
A few lights flickered on around the grimiore and around the new man. Six people appeared in a large circle around the man and case covered in black trenches with hoods up and bottom touching the floor and masks dawned over their pretty faces.
"Ello. If you don't mind moving so we can take the book that would be nice." Xerx said except every sentance was told through a different mask. The six turned to the right and walked in a circle around the armored man stopping after a few steps.
"I'm actally trying to figure you out. Hero or Villian? Well I have not heard of a hero with red armor than again you could be a noobie..." the necromancer ranted through each of the figures masks. Nekros began to think of different outcomes of what could go down hoping not for a fight.

Silva glanced at each of the six figures each with a mask on, he could tell they were human and maybe not even alive because each 'person' spoke a different sentance. "Now why should I give you this book when you won't reveal yourself, it's rude not to introduce yourself before you ask someonelse's name." he said as he whipped his hand out and threw a couple small fireballs at the figures in front of him, trying to get them to stop circling him or at least reveal the man behind the puppet strings.
"Tell you what, since neither of us have the time for a full fledged fight and since you seem so interested in a book that I could torch, come out and meet with me face to face so we can talk, then I'll decided wether or not to give you this Grimoire you so desperatly want." Silva added as he placed one hand on the top of the glass case that held the Grimoire, all the while keeping a eye on the circling unknowns.

Nekros
A masked finger got hit by a flame revealing itself to be a skeleton and burning to ash. The five remaining stopped in a horizantal line infront of the flamming man and they each took off there masks revealing a barren skull. "Now I don't recall asking for a name but what ever, as long as I get what I want." Nekros laughed.
Sliding out on his one still useable leg, Nekros slid out unnoticed behind the wall of minions from the shadow. A second later the skeletons fell to the ground revealing Xerx behind them.
"Hello, name is Nekros, now than hero or villian?" he slyly asked walking slowly foward. He stepped over the heaps of bones carefully not wanting to crush them.

Silva smiled slightly as the necromancer came out from the shadows. "Same as you, call me Inferno for now, before I give you this Grimoire tell me why you want it so badly." he didn't doubt why the necromancer wanted it, it more then likely held great power for his kind, but he wanted to make sure the man would be honest, well as honest as a villian could be really.
He glanced down at the piles of bones that the necromancer made sure not to step on and smiled slightly to himsef under his helm, so the man needed acual skeletons to raise them, something he'd keep to himself for the moment since it would more then likely help him down the road at some point.

Nekros
"Inferno, thats quite revealing of your powers but anyway. The tome supposedly holds the power to bring the dead back to life." Nekros said staring at the grimiore.
"Of course, I only plan to bring one person back to the living, then throw the book away." He cheerfully said. He thought to himself about his red coffin in the back of his hearst. Nekros began to step closer not trying to make a move though. "Of course, if we take much longer the cops will arrive. Plus my friends over at Winters Edge want this book but for far bigger reasons than my own, and lets just say they don't like sharing..." Nekros laughed.
((be on in an hour or sooner have to do something.))

Silva smiled then laughed slightly at what the Necromancer said, he was truthfully, almost brutally so but he could tell that they could work together again in the future. "Fine, but here's the deal, you get finished with whatever your going to do with the book then hand it over to me, since I doubt either of us can get away safely at this point, and I'll distract the cops while you slip away, Then if you ever need the book well...I'm sure you'll be able to find it again." he said as he took his hand off the top of the case before smashing a fireball right into the front of it to melt a hole in the glass.
He then carefully reached in and pulled the book out before tossing it lightly at Nekros so that he could do whatever the hell he was going to do with it then he'd hand it over . "Also if your people ask what happened...tell them there was a slight complication in your plan in the form of Superhero and that you lost the book in what ensued." He said as he crossed his arms, ready to see what the Necromancer had planned.

Nekros
Nekros quickly catched the book holding it tight. "Finally, the day has come. I will finally bring.....back." Xerx said with a small tear running down his cheek. He felt the ancient material and spoke the language on the cover before opening the book.
Slowly and carefully opening the book he went to the first page staring at its old, beaten, torn, and oh ya empty page. "CRAP! They already have it!" Nekros shouted in anger. He threw it at the wall infrustration, not knowing what to do.

Silva watched the Necromancer throw the book against the wall in frustration and raised an eyebrow. "Your going to have to explain this to me, but I don't think this is the place to do it." he said as he walked over to the book and picked it up, the book sliding closed as he picked it up, and handed it back towards the necromancer. "I doubt this book is that useless to someone like you, but you'd best make up your mind right quick before we run out of time to get out of here." he added glancing out the nearest window for siren lights or even the sound they made as they got closer.

Nekros
Nekros grabbed the book holding it by its cover so everything fluttered outward. "You're right, plus the water chick may show up..." Nekros sneered. Not wanting any confrontations from any good guys Nekros grabbed all the masks and trenches and began to walk to the back of the building.
"Are you going to come with me, my cars out back. I have a place in the Winters Edge but do you have somewhere closer." Nekros asked reaching a back exit.

"One of my friends is lending me his second house around here, you'll know which one it is because there'll be a lit torch in front of it, don't be too late alright." Silva said as he folloed the Necromancer outside then turned down the alley and began following it at a run, wondering if the Necromancer might just accidently bring the cops to his current hideout or if he'd arrive at all.
