Powers rise

those on the planet look up, a very quiet rumble is begining. the ship can now be seen better. they watch onto the spetacular site as a huge pair of doors open from the side, and a ship starts emerging from it. the people then relise the scale of this ship. it stretchs for approximatly 3.75 KM.
******
thats right, a giant ship, is coming out of an even bigger ship

Anglachel and Rose wonder what a ship that big is doing here
Anglachel puzzles over what these people are here for (in terms of Minsc, etc.)

This reminds me of a time in the original forum when my character became a gargantuan-among-planets Dragon-like BEHEMOTH! THIS MAKES THIS JUST AS KYOUKUGEN AWESOME!!!
***
Rhye'Dor notices the massive ship, and awes and ponders about its killing capability. Rhye'Dor then does something he's always wanted to do: go into outer space. He does this by literally ramming through the walls of the station--then sealing the hole, and "swims" in deep space.
Suddenly, his moment of fun ends when something rams him into the planet. Rhye'Dor realizes that he is been brought back to the surface of the planet... by a ASTEROID!!
***5 minutes after he enters the atmosphere and still stupidly pinned to the asteroid***
A women in a cloak stands atop a small-scaled mountain top somewhere in the region and spots Rhye'Dor falling from orbit 3 miles to the south of Ember. The women opens up a holographic interfaces that acts as a map. The women speaks. "Okay... target found. Calculating trajectory, and... got you!" The women hops on a hidden hover-cycle and travels a Mk. speed towards Rhye'Dor.
***20 minutes later***
The women arrives at a massive crater. the asteroid has desintergrated and Rhye'Dor is in the epicenter on the ground. His mask and hood burned to a non-recoverable state, and his face revealed.
***

This is my overall and final character appearance change. Besides, now he gets to show that he does have a... "mark".

Rhye'Dor slowly gets his baring on what just happened, when the women standing just outside the crater. The Women speaks loudly. "Rhye'Dor! You've got a bounty on your head and its time earn that bounty! For me to earn, anyway!"
Rhye'DOr looks up and sees her remove her cloak.
The moment he lays on on her face and body (so to speak), Rhye'Dor mutters to himself. "I like her already! That, and she's my kind of woman that I want!"
The woman speaks. "So then... will we be doing this the easy way..." The woman draws her longsword and holds it with both hands like a samurai. "Or the hard--"
Rhye'Dor interrupts. "Oh, I think I'll take the hard way if you don't mind. LETS DANCE!!" in a moment, Rhye'Dor holds one of his Katana-Broadswords in his right hand and is just in front of her. "Your name, fair and dangerous maiden?"
The woman is confused slightly to his mannerisms. "Shai'Ra! my name is Shai'Ra!!"
Shai'Ra takes a couple metres worth of a jump backwards and the two  engage in a sword fightt that Rhye'Dor considers as "bonding time".

(actually, Rhye'Dor was originally on the capital ship coming out i understood... oh well, he was on the planet )
the large hanger suddenly lights up, as the capital ship's engine burst into life. it smashes into the side of the hanger bay leaving a large amount of damage, but makes it out. the site is spetacular, on the front side of the capital ship, what look like 2 giant floresent tubes on the ship's side suddenly light up, and a bright green light emerges from it, and seems to "grab" onto the larger ship. it begins rotating the larger ship, it then starts pulling, aiming it more towards the edge of the planet. *BOOOM* the two lights burst, and the capital ship starts falling behind.
*****
S:the capital ship gets out of the titan, and tries to aim it at a more acute angle to the planet. but its tractor beam blows up for an unstated reason.

the giant hanger bay doors close, but there is a large hole on the edge of the wall, sucking out air. a loud hiss, and a bang can barly be heard over the now building rumble. Anglachel sees a small ship in the hanger bay suddenly release from one of the walls, and its fiery engine provides some more light. it pulls a long, thick metal pole out from the wall, and goes over to the hole. the pole begins going through a tube attached to the ship, melting inside. the liquid then comes out the other side, and the ship begins smearing it onto the hole, followed by blast of a very cold gas, instantly solidifying it. it soon has the hole closed up, and returns to the wall which it was attached to.
**********
S:there was a hole in the Titan, it got patched up.

the rumble in Ember builds, and now the Titan can be seen clearly, as well as the Capital ship as it laggs behind. (see character descriptions for the Titan's description. yet to officially design capital ship) huge landing gears emerge from the giant ship, flames begin forming around it's nose, as it enters the atmosphere. thrusters underneath the titan start appearing in small bursts, aligning the trajectory.
*************
S: the titan begins entering the atmosphere, causing an intensifying rumble on the planet.

the rumble builds, and everyone in Ember can hear the loud rumble. Even, for those whole listen, you can hear it from the otherside of the planet.
The titan's front thrusters start burning brightly to slow it's descent. a great gush of wind blows the clouds apart, and sweep through ember as the Titan enters the atmosphere towards the desert.
the room goes completly dark in the hanger, and now nothing can be heard except the now violently shaking bay. *BOOM* the front of the ship hits the ground on an angle to the left side. a massive explosion rips the front left landing gear off, and it hurtles through the air. Anglachel and Rose are helpless as the jolt flings them in their seat. if it was any harder, it would have dislogged their necks. *BOOM* the back of the Titan bounces violently as it hits the ground, and there is anouther bang as the front lands on the ground again. it skids violently across the desert floor, and stops only after a near full minute, only a kilometer or so from the begining of some canyons the suddenly come out of the ground (metaphorically).
************
S: Titan crashes in desert, next to a very presice line of canyons.

Anglachel and Rose black out, and awake to the dark hanger bay, their ears ringing. a few people are running around, some people in reflective clothing can be seen moving along the line of seats, checking people's conditions. Minsc stands in front of Anglachel, her and Rose's covers lifted.
"Seat stay." he says as he points his gun. "wait for Khalid"(cah-lead). the thinner man soon returns, he looks over them both for injuries, but decideds that Anglachel's cut on her forhead isnt enough to worry about, especially compard to other's injuries.
"explain who you are, and how you got on board. we dont usually take kindly to people transporting on board without first identifying themselves." as he asks this, there is a whirring, and suddenly the main lights come on. Anglachel now relises the scale of this hanger. ITS HUGE! it stretchs about 750m across, and 400m high. (roughly). then half the lights flicker and go out, leaving even lighting across the whole place.
************
S: Anglachel wakes up, to being asked who she is, and how she got here.

Anglachel checks on Rose, who is slightly dazed but okay
Anglachel clears her throat, "I'm Anglachel and this is my younger sister Rose, we heard a distress signal and a call for help, and thought we could perhaps lend a hand, so I teleported myself and Rose here, only to be put in seats and almost have our necks broken, now it is my turn to ask questions, what is something this big doing here, and why?...who are you people and what is your purpose here?"
***
summary:
Anglachel explains who she is and how she got to be there, then asks why the ship is here,and what it is doing, and in turn asks who they are (Minsc, etc), and their purpose

Rhye'Dor is handcuffed to the very special handcuffs that he made for himself, and is now in Shai'Ra's custody. Rhye'Dor speaks as they power walk to the crash site. "Why are we going there? shouldn't you want to be collecting the very-high-bounty on my head!?" Shai'Ra speaks as she holsters her sword and and uses her strenght and bare, gloved hands to make sure Rhye'Dor keeps walking and not escaping. "Well... if there is loot there and stuff, you can't just leave the opportunity and walk away, right? besides, its not too far from here."
Rhye'Dor laughs a little as they are now a couple hundred metres away from the crashed ship.

As the ship crashed, a small scanner detects something.
Sadly, the scanner was ignored due to the more pressing matter of the imminent arrival of the ground.
What the scanner detected, though, was quite intriguing.
It detected a lone man kneeling in the desert, meditating.
The man got up as the ship crashed beside him, and walked away.
Rhy'dor and Shai'Ra now meet this man.
He is tall, he wears a grey cloak and has a long beard. He weilds a sword twice as long as he is, and a halbeard strapped to his back.
He calls out to Rhy'dor & Co.
"I would prefer it if you would leave this ship alone"
It is Krodrus

Summary: Krodrus met Rhy'dor and expressed his objection to the looting.

"You’re jumping forward quickly. Until we know where we are I’m-" and almost as an answer, he stops, receives something on his little intercom, then continues.
He sighs, takes a moment. "This is the ISA Rogue. A long term war ship. This ship was meant to go round all the way to the back of the enemies’ space. But evidently the warp didn’t drop on time. I don’t know why we are here, but I do know that we are far too far away to return home."
as he speaks, the hanger bay doors open, and the low sunset light comes in. "do you know those guys?" he points out to the open desert. Two small people can be seen on foot approaching, but then stop and meet someone. They are about 4km away.
S: this is a giant Titan (for war) that is a long way from home. Does Anglachel know the people in the distance?
<<<<<<-----earlier<<<<----------
(I’m moving back in time a little, the people on the ship would have done something before Rhye and Shai get too close), the ship looks very small in the distance. They see some smoke coming from the front left side, and the back. It soon stops (the smoke that is). There is a rumble which builds, then lowers a little as the other capital ship enters the atmosphere. It goes off a number of kilometres, and picks up the broken off landing gear. At the same time a cruiser slides out the back of one of the launch points, and takes to the air, almost hitting the ground as it leaves. It then goes round the front and starts hovering.
The capital ship comes over, and places down the landing gear close next to the smaller cruiser. There is a loud whirring, and the capital ship starts lifting the Titan with the remaining tractor beam, and the Titan’s thrusters underneath come to life as the Titan lifts, and the cruiser places the landing gear underneath, and secures it. The capital ship then lands right up next to the Titan and the cruiser returns inside the Titan.
S: They put the landing gear back on.

A Cruiser launches from the Titan and flies over, it hovers about 100m away. It appears to have weapons, but they hang loose, like there is no one operating them. A few people can be seen standing on the ship looking out towards the small interaction, but make no move

Anglachel looks at the people in the distance, "I know some of them...others I haven't seen before, anyway....if you aren't in need of any help, Rose and I have something we need to do..."

Aerrow stands outside the gates of Ink Heart, it is a well developed city, with electronics and guns...quite futuristic....
Aerrow goes to explore the city further
Aerrow walks right into a conflict zone
Aerrow avoids bullets by manipulating the air, "What the heck is going on here??"
A man drops dead beside Aerrow, his head knocked in
Aerrow looks at the man, "A soldier from Charn??....this is going to be trouble, there is a war going on here..."

Rhye'Dor suddenly hears something coming from Ink Heart... like a signal to summon a monster. a demon wolf. its sound a whistle, yet like a war horn.
Rhye'Dor transforms into his true form and breaks his shackles against his own will as the animal within him, his "true form's conciousness", instinctively grabs Shai'Ra and tosses her onto his back.
Rhye'Dor runs at high speeds towards Ink Heart... smelling the fumes of war.

Krodrus lowers his sword
"...pleased to meet you too"
Krodrus walks towards the Titan muttering about manners.

Rose waves at Krodrus
Anglachel suddenly gets an uneasy feeling, something is not right...blood hangs in the air...

Rhye'Dor arrives at Ink Heart, many people lie dead from both Charn and Ink Heart....a tragic scene

A figure staggers to the ground near a large city wall
it is an old city, the wall is crumbling, but this is where this man was born
once this city was full of laughter and joy, back then it was called The City of Azroth, but then someone tried to take control, and wanted power above all else, and in order to gain that power, fear was used, bringing a large beast into the city, however the beast had plans of its own and betrayed it's so-called master, and attacked the city, bringing it to ruin...yet people still live here, here.....in The City of Bones....it was here that Zedd was born and raised, alongside the dry bones of his towns people killed long ago by the beast
Zedd coughs a bullet wound deep in his throat, he has travelled far from Ink Heart
Zedd looks at the tattered brown book in his trembling hand, it contains the City of Bones' story, ever detail Zedd can remember, for he was there when the beast struck, and he knows where the beast is....
in a last effort Zedd tries to inform people in his book where the beast is he writes:
'The beast no longer slumbers, it has awakened and smelt blood, the beast waits in......'
there the words ended as Zedd breathed his last and succumbed to join the bones of his ancestors.

Aerrow hears talk about a strange man from a dead city, a man by the name of Zedd, who had been in town recently, but was fatally shot and seen quickly leaving through the city gates,
Aerrow sets to work investigating, trying to avoid the conflict in the city
***
summary: The city of Bones was original Azroth, Zedd is from the city of bones, and has a book recording it's history, he knows the beasts location, but due to being injured and close to death...dies, before he can write it down in his book...
Aerrow investigates this after hearing about Zedd from the Ink Heart townsfolk

Rhye'Dor can be seen eating the dead of both cities and the survivors.
As he moves about, he notices Zeed's corpse and his book. Shai'Ra hides out of fear of Rhye'Dor's hunger and beastly rage and watches him about to eat Zeed, but then notices the words and what it's says. He slowly eats Zeed and as he does so, sits down and uses his right par entry and delecitly to somehow try to read what's been written.
***
Rhey'Dor has become a behemoth of a demon wolf from the Netherrealm. He has eating the corpses of Ink Heart and Narn from the battle field and has hunted and killed any survivors. A slight level of intelligence is seen as Rhye'Dor notices Zeed and his book of his hoemtown's history and tries to make sense of it, with little success... Beause he has succumbed to his animal side completely.

Aerrow rushes in and takes the book thinking it was going to be destroyed...Aerrow then looks at the animal, "Rhye'Dor?"
Aerrow places his hand on the wall that Zedd was leaning against...."This wall isn't from Ink Heart, it used to be a wall which bordered the territory of the City of Azroth....that city owned most of the land back then, the actual city of Azroth is ages away...or what is left of it...."
Aerrow reads the last words Zedd wrote, "The beast is awake....so he knew where the beast was, too bad he died before telling us where"
The fighting between Charn and Ink heart continues, these cities are huge, guns fire and explosions occur

"before you go, if there is anyone on the planet who can help us. we need to know where we are, the people here, we arnt from this planet, and need to know what is going on. cause we wont be leaving. not at least before the Titan is repaired. even then."

-------->>>>>>>
as Krodus heads towards the Titan, the Cruiser sets down in front of Krodus. a man in robes steps forward, and two other men in uniform with small guns step forward. though they keep them to their side.
"WELCOME! WELCOME. (although perhaps we should be the ones welcomed?) I am Garrak, abassador of the ISA Rogue, although i never felt that title has bee perfectly appropriate, so you can call me Garrak. im not sure what you did to send them away, but perhaps it was for the better. i had a bad feeling about them." is voice is sly and cunning, and leaves a rather confusing impression as to whether he is friend or foe.
"what may i ask is your name good sir?"

S:Krodus meets Ambassador Garrak, and is asked what is name is.

Anglachel smiles, "No need I'll stay around and help you understand this place, but Rose needs to go"
Anglachel teleports Rose to Aerrow
Anglachel speaks, "You're close to the City of Ember, but if you need supplies like electronics, it would be best if you head for EdgeGate, it is a city just to the west of Ember, it has perhaps the resources you need to fix your ship, Ember is quite minimal in resources of electronic capacity, but I can offer you shelter and food, The Shattered Circle Inn isn't far into Ember it is on the edge, but you'll have to watch out for Raztec soldiers, they're not going to be pleased about your arrival, and you'll end up in a Raztec prison if you are caught, anything else you need to know?"
***
summary: Rose leaves Anglachel stays behind, and explains Ember and where the ship is, and offers food and shelter at The Shattered Circle Inn and warns them about Raztec who are likely not going to be friendly towards them, and also suggests that EdgeGate would be the best place for supplies of electronic type

Krodrus gives an elegant bow.
"I am Krodrus, Templar of the Arha, bearer of the Voidthirster."
"You wouldn't know me"
Krodrus walks past Garrak.
"Nice ship. It's amazing what you humans get up to with so much world to work with."
Krodrus sighs
"enough chit-chat. I have work to do"
Krodrus cuts himself a portal to the void and leaves, leaving a very shocked Garrak

Summary: Krodrus introduces himself and leaves.

A man in very fancy uniform steps forward. he is tall, with red hair, and speak with authority "what are the civilisations here? some of the bigger cities that are also around? and how are the relationships between them going?" Khalid and Minsc salute, putting thier fists on thiers chests.

Anglachel sighs, "there are other cities, I've know about them for a long time, I just never told anyone....anyway....there is EdgeGate, which as fas as I know it is at peace and happy to keep to its own business, Ashton is the largest city around here, it used to have royalty, but.....nevermind about that history, then there is Charn and Ink Heart they are well developed in electronics and things, but at the moment they are at war, and soon possibly all the cities will be too....then there is the City of B...."
Anglachel falls silent suddenly, "Forget I said that last bit, it could have me killed if Raztec found out, and hunted more than I already am..."
***
Summary: Anglachel explains the cities and the recent war between Charn and Ink Heart, and almost mentions the city of Bones, but stops....telling them that such information could have her killed by Raztec, and hunted more than she already is

"please escuse my manners, i am Captain Josh Halt of the ISA Rogue. this ship you are standing on right now." he briefly turns to Khalid and Minsc "at ease.
one more thing before you are free to leave, or stay if you wish, though we can only offer so much under the circumstances here. of these cities, how much do you think they would be willing to help us?" as he says this, the cruiser ship comes into the hanger, and drops off Garrak before going round to the back of the ship where it came out.
"i would prefure to avoid getting involved in the conflict, but we shall see." Garrak walks over, and Khalid and Minsc get called off to other duties.
"ahh, captain, we have anouther guest. welcome. i am Ambassador Garrak" Garrak says in his polite, but still a little sly, tone.
"what of them?" Josh asks, indicating outside.
"a rather unusual encounter, long of the short of it. they both left, and perhapes it is unlikly we shall meet them again? who knows? and may i ask you who you are?" Garrak turns to Anglachel. "making friends quickly i see captain. a good start to an unknown world, i hope things continue this way"
*******
S: Anglachel is asked which cites would help the most (and who she is again by the new Garrak)

Anglachel thinks, "EdgeGate would be your best option, they have always been our friends, and would give you the most help, in fixing your ship, they are very willing and happy to help people when they are in need, but their government system is tough, like Ember, as for the other cities you won't get much willingness to help from them....even Ember...with Raztec in control Ember is a dangerous place at times, but I will help you as much as I can"
Anglachel looks at Garrak and speaks politely, "My name is Anglachel, welcome to Ember Garrak"
Garrak notices Anglachel is carrying a long blade at her side and two daggers in a back sheath

***
S: Anglachel suggests EdgeGate would be the best option, in terms of willingness to help, but suggests they be careful about it, the governent in EdgeGate is a harsh one....Anglachel introduces herself to Garrak politely, Garrak notices the weapons Anglachel is carrying

Rhye'Dore stands on his legs and then feels a sudden surge of power and memories rush in. He sees an ancient and dark castle the size of a large city. a castle representing the evil that once nearly ruled this part of the desert world through fear and terror. he sees a man (see my recent post in character Bios expanded): immortal and powerful, decimate an massive army of mere mortals and monsters with his bare hands and a strange form of evil and twisted magic apart of his body. He feeds of a soldier's blood and soul and wipes them all out in one. swift. attack: an attack in the form of a devastating dragon-formed attack--all they see is black and death. The man stands proud... unchanged and laughing as he returns to his sanctum. The vision stops.
Rhye'Dor instinctively goes to wear the castle is: Far off into the west.
In a moment, Rhye'Dor finds himself in the man's sanctum. Shai'Ra is hiding just outside the sanctum, as she followed Rhye'Dor. She mutters to herself. "What's he doing in "the dragon"'s sanctum? this is desecration of my people's ruler!"
Rhye'Dor looks at a pedastal in the centre. behind it to the wall is a large throne representing evil and darkness and malevolence. Rhye'Dor touches it with his right front paw, and it glows red.

His body becomes covered in a mist. His logic returns and he says. "What's happening? WHO AM IIII!!!?"
In a moment, a phenomena that can be seen by everyone in the form of dark clouds and red light coming from the west.
Rhye'Dor notices his body merging into his human form. His body stripped and remolded into what it truly was and is.
In a few moments, an explosion in the form of mist occurs throughout the entire castle. as the fog lifts, the same man he saw in his sealed, repressed memories appears where Rhye'Dor was standing. He stretches a bit and turns, eyes glowing.
"I remember now: This is my home. this is where I began and fulfilled my goal to wipe out the half-dragons! This is where my legend began! this is why Raztec knew my name and feared it! I. AM. VENGEANCE. I AM. THE DRACULA OF THIS WORLD. I. AM. Rhye'Dor Kra'Ahrn. AND I HAVE RETURNED FROM MY PILGRAMAGE!!"
Rhye'Dor Kra'Arhn stands at his sanctum's balcony as his wolf-pack and ancient army stand in the incredibly large courtyard below him. "And the age of peace--and of pure light--is at an end!" Shai'Ra stands by Rhye'Dor's side as his servant. Rhye'Dor raises his right hand and his army cheers and roars in a welcoming and respective manner.
***
Rhye'Dor discovers who he really is and restores himself to his true self within his city-sized castle's sanctum, declaring his return and the return of his city nation and his army re-massed back together to follow his orders which have not been given, with Shai'Ra revealing herself to be one of his most loyal and personal body-Guard.
