The Red Christmas - Roleplay

Status
Not open for further replies.
I once again set my gaze on the Mad King.

- I wonder, 'King of Hell', did anyone ever enlighten you about the fate of your other son - David? Please, allow me.

A vision of Am'ar thrusting his staff through David's head appeared in Mad King's mind.

- Tell yourself again that these are not truly your friends...
 
"Damn, if this keeps continue like this.."
I transformed back to my original form, as i see the evil mistress gaze on the Mad King. "This is my chance" I thought. I concentrate magic at Evil mistress' location with my full power.
"cala paimë!" I shouted loudly

The Ground is trembling and begins to glow, the Evil Mistress' is engulfed by a wall of light. Appear a light in form of spear falling from the sky. plied the evil mistress.

After the spell ends, the christmas valley full of dust..
"Did it work?!"
 
"My son? I would never listen from the likes of you." Mad King said calmly


Meanwhile... I saw Pailan meditating and what he said earlier.


"Pailan, you are weak. That is all I can say to you. If you won't help us, it's fine." I said and then jumping into the air.

"Bernkastel... we almost forgot that you are our target here! Take your last breath!" I said to Bernkastel while in the air maintaining my balance.


I then reached out for my whip and flames appeared throughout my whip. I hit the ground with my whip and the ground cracked and flames appeared in it and it is towards where Bernkastel is. Because of that, a large explosion covered the position where Bernkastel is but I am yet unsure if it hits her or not...
 
"this not ended yet! Kenny, in this form i can't help to attack but to support you from behind, got it? I can only use magic"
In my original form i don't have a weapon except my magic

"the fire of hell, unbridled force, strongest force, the destroyer. Allow me to use your power, Flame Burst!" I shouted

ground beneath Bernkastel is trembling, splitted into two.. from the gap, flame is manifested.

"You can't dodge this one!" at least that what was i thought
 
((You "good" guys surely need to work on how a character that is supposed to be "evil" should behave. Your Mad King reacts calmly and with confidence to those whispers as if he is among the most faithful servants of some god, immune to corruption and with an unbreakable will.))
 
((OOC: Just asking but the people with me here is Kari, Vel, Gyro, Bisnar aaaaand?

BTW, based on the previous posts, paillan seems to be here and in the battlefield. I don't get how paillan can be at two places in one time. :/))

"Really guys? Did we REALLY lose everything just because that gear broke?" I looked at the people around me. It seems like they really did lose all of the hope left in them.

I waited for some reply but got nothing... nothing but silence.

"Fine, if you guys are not gonna do anything, I'll just carry on by myself."

I started picking up the shattered remains of the gear in hopes of someone fixing it later. After picking up a few pieces myself, I realized that it was too much job for a kitten to do by herself.

"....I'll do it by myself and with Bisnar's help" I said while signaling for Bisnar to come closer and help.

I started once again picking up the shattered pieces of the gear and putting it on Bisnar's back. I did so in silence.
 
((OCC: Hera, nobody is there. Exept you and bisnar, yeah))
"Oh common now, I am stronger than you. But it is pointless to fight with all our strenght combined against a being whose strengh can't be possible measured"

Suddenly the mad king starts to tremble

"That... that rush of energy..." He turns around "Did you really tought I was going to fight? with you?" Mad king laughts and points his hammer to A'mar and the guys

"Oblivierate" He yust says

((OCC: YEAH, he isn't being a baddy, even I, by not fighting become technically more evil (because I don't help with my power or what ever)))
 
(( No offense. But fire is fucking lame. I am being honest here. Like I am going to say. "Yeah. I'm dead." Because that's the only thing I could do if I cared about this roleplay. Stop acting like a bunch of ladies and actually do something. ))

- You all know that you could not possibly win. I, am Bernkastel. This planet was mine, and it shall be mine once more.

Soon the flames succumbed and as the smoke finally had disappeared all could see that I had remained unharmed.
 
((OOC: Understood, LK. Damn it, I am really bad on making an evil character. And Pailan you are just making the characters stupid with that, no offense. Anyways, I would not start my dialogue with Mad King based on what Pailan just did now. Seriously, Mad King being a pussy? Seriously...))

"What the hell! The fire did not even affect her even of some sort." I said in total shock.

"Do not lose hope, Kenny. You can do it!" Rheiko said while in my back.

"Well, here I go!" I said then charging Bernkastel


I know it is totally lame to do a melee combat because it might put me in total risk but whatever.


"Take this, Bernkastel. My whip will surely cut you into half!!" I said then suddenly feeling the urge to laugh for no apparent reason.


Meanwhile, Bartheus and Mad King stood in the back and had a talk.


"I do not know on what that girl is talking about my other son, David.... but I shall make her talk, RIGHT NOW!" Mad King said and then reaching out for his greatsword.

"What shall we do now, Mad King?" Bartheus said

"You have a mind, right? Go and make your own decision!" Mad King said then charging to Bernkastel

"Certainly." Bartheus said and then charging to Bernkastel as well.
 
(( So.. my first spell was better than a fire huh
232216-albums6998-picture77460.png
))
 
(( Yes, it was. ))

I widened my eyes as the three denizens of Hell were charging at me, ready to destroy me.

- Yes, yes! Come! Unleash your anger! Your hatred! Swell in your pride!

Soon enough the fiery whip cut me from my abdomen to my throat.
The attack forced me to crouch and as I recovered I could see the Mad King readying his attack.

- Is that how you ask questions in Hell?
 
"No, girl... hahahaha!!! Before you die, answer me! What is it about David that you are whispering to me awhile ago? Answer!" Mad King said while pointing his greatsword to Bernkastel's face.

"Hahaha.... look at that, girl... looking too weakened because of the deep cut she took from Kenny's whip. The whip did indeed prove how strong it was! Pitiful for you, girl!" Bartheus said.


I stood there quietly grinning at Bernkastel but I was also interested on what will Bernkastel answer to my father's question. But I have a bad feeling this will not turn out well... for I know this is not how Bernkastel fights.
 
((OCC: WAIT WAIT WAIT. SO HELL MASTER CAN JUST GO AND IGNORE MY POST ABOUT THE MAD KING'S TREASON. BUT A BUNCH OF GUYS CANNOT GO AND IGNORE LEGION KING'S POST ABOUT THE GEAR? SERIUSLY, WHAT DA FACK))
When I finally opened my eyes I was there. Long time not here. They looked at me in a violent way. I can't blame them. I am not like them, I am stranger. But they let me pass. Finally I reach him.

I bow to him and theam say:

"God, I need your help" I look to the face of god

((OCC: yes biach, I am in heaven))
 
"What!? Why?" Mad King asked while grining to Bernkastel

"Hmmm, should we dispose of this girl now? After all, we will gain victory if we end her life right now." Bartheus said

"No. Let this girl talk." Mad King said and still grinning at Bernkastel.



I was in the other hand shocked of what Bernkastel said. I was here standing thinking how could it be that Mad King's fault all the time... but there was no answer coming to me.

((And Pailan about your OOC which I just saw now, yes, I ignored it because it sounds too much stupid. While what LK did can be beneficial for the RP to make it some sort of a challenge to us good guys.))
 
I straightened my back and smiled at the Mad King, despite of the poor condition of my body.

- You allowed him to get to the surface. Then due to his own stupidity he became "friends" with these people.
And that, unfortunately, was his first and last mistake.
I tried to convince him to leave them before it was too late. However, after he was finally enlightened of their true intentions, he was brutally murdered.
You saw it for yourself.
 
"It was my fault....no.... THEIR fault!" Mad King said then suddenly facing Amargaard and the other.

"I will kill you all after I deal with this girl." Mad King said in disappointment.

"Anyways, let us dispose of this girl! I do not find anymore a reason for her to live in this world." Mad King said while grinning at Bernkastel.


I suddenly reached out for my whip and walked towards Bernkastel.


"I pity you, Bernkastel.... Farewell." I said then slashing her with my fiery whip.
 
- Soon there'll be nobody else left to pity. All of you mindless insects will DIE! Your deaths will be slow and frigid! Why don't you just give u-

Kenny's whip had cut my stomach wide open, I fell on my knees as I held my insides from falling out. More of the tar resembling liquid poured out and slowly with it all that was inside of me.

- Why don't you just.. Give up.. And DIE!

I burst into laughter as I couldn't hold myself up anymore and fell down on the littered ground.

- Hahaha.. You can't just.. Kill me.. I am INVINCIBLE! I will c-crush you all! .. I was stopped long ago, but this is the moment.. The moment when... My eternal dynasty shall once more take hold of this world!

As I finished, I coughed out a shapeless object all covered in the black fluid, I looked up to see them all stare at me.

- Monsters.
 
"It seems even in a near death situation you won't give up?" Mad king said then stabbing her with his great sword.

"Why. DON'T. YOU. GIVE. UP!!!?" Mad King said then stabbing her with his greatsword once again.


I stood there looking to my father stabbing Bernkastel countless times. I did not mind any of it.


"Damn it, witch! Why won't you die!?" Amargaard said from afar.

~Final Rage

"Victory!" Mad King said then laughing.

"I thought that we are gonna have some hard time with this but it is not." Bartheus said

"......." I said


Suddenly, the overall expression of Mad King changed when he faced Amargaard then Mad King slowly reached out for his greatsword.


"I hope you heard what I DID said awhile ago." Mad King said


-----Now it is up for Amargaard itself to respond to this-------
 
After a long talk with god himself

"So that's what I have to do, thank you, god, that clear's the meaning of life for my, bye"

I slowly wake up...

I realize nobody touched me. Good. I remove the force field. She isn't here, I bet they tought they beated her... Fools.

I slowly see that Mad king is looking towards A'mar with hate. OHHH, so she corrupted his mind? great, so we can finally kill him.

I turn into my bipolar form (half-demon and half-angel) and put myself in front of the mad king.

"So... why are you taking so long? Is the good side I gave to you making you undecided, well bad for you, because I got something for you" I channel a great escence of light in my hand.

"God said it was a gift for 'ya. Merry X'mas mad king" I throw the strong escence to the mad king.
 
"This light!! Damn it!" Mad King said while being overpowered by the essence

"What trickery is this, foolish boy?" Bartheus said to Pailan

"What the....?" Amargaard said while in total shock looking at the essence that is overpowering him.


Suddenly, I went in front of Pailan and pointed my bladed whip to his face and looked at him.


"What do you think you are doing, Pailan?" I asked Pailan.
 
((OOC: Holy crap, things got weird in my absence... time to clean up! This time I used Bernkastel a little bit too, hopefully I did no harm to your storyline miss. If so, please tell me, so that I can change it in time.

And Juno, yes, Kari and Vel are with you too. I have read all the posts since my last visit, and nothing proves otherwise

By the way, in this post I am including the "Idol" word, which is some new title I made up, actually during the HHH project, so here's a short simple explanation for you guys. An Idol is the person in charge of a specific holiday - all Idols are very powerful as you might know already. Examples of Idols in the RP includes Santa Claus, as the former Idol of Christmas, and the Mad King, later succeeded by the Legion King, as the Idol of Halloween, and Cupid as the Idol of Valentine.))

Captain Am'ar Kardos ~ And There I was...
__________________________________

So there I was - in the middle of the Valley of Christmas on the 24th of December. My foe had been slain, or so it would seem, and her lifeless body lied below my leathery boot - yet nothing felt right, even after the mistress' death that I had wished for so long. The powerful Christmas Spirit that we all witnessed last year was nowhere to be found. I only felt the cold snowflakes flowing through the air, not in the cozy harmonic way that I recalled from last Christmas - no, they moved numbly towards the corrupted flat ground, landing quietly upon what little was left of the pitch black ruins of miss Bernkastel's citadel.

I had overseen the battlefield for a while. A confusing and bloody scene that I could never been able to imagine before it came to be. And all this on Christmas Eve. Children were supposed to have gotten their presents about now, and people would celebrate with their families and friends on this holiday, but no. I looked around once again, watching passively by as my personally favorite holiday had been turned into a bloodshed among friends and allies. I realized now that after the mistress' death, we had turned against each other instead - The Mad King's soulless army from the Destruction World fought against Angels that had come to aid Paillan from the heavens. My closest allies had joined either side, or stood confused between them, like myself...

It was now that I realized it. I had destroyed Christmas. I was the reason people were fighting, and I was to blame for the holiday being ruined.

I looked down to the arch-rival that had died so unexpected and sudden, and not even by my hand as I had hoped a few days ago. Curiosity rose within me; Who actually killed her? Who dealt the finishing blow?

I tipped her body over with my boot, and to my surprise I found an arrow sticking out from her chest - a very special arrow only one person would use. Cupid, the Idol of Valentine and God of Love. But how? He wasn't even here... was my eyes playing tricks on me? Had the manipulative words of Legion King finally pierced my sanity? Or was it the depressing reality, that created images in my head? All I could say for sure was that I could see one of Cupid's magical arrows sticking out from her chest. Real or not, it was definitely there!

I knelt down, to inspect it further and satisfy my curiosity. Suddenly Bernkastel's body started to glow. The sunglasses was not enough for my sensitive eyes, which forced me to cover for the light with my palm. When the light had disappeared, and I looked again, I was surprised to find Bernkastel back in her young body, from before her godly mutation, unharmed and without even a single scratch on the old beautiful dress of hers. Her face... her face looked innocent, like I had only seen it at the beginning of last year's Christmas adventure. A sight I never knew how much I missed, before this very second.

Apparently no one but myself had noticed this odd change in the mistress' appearance, as anyone was busy fighting each other, forgetting the very reason for celebrating Christmas.. to love instead of hate, to share instead of take, and to be together, instead of falling apart, like we had done this evening...
After being enlightened by my own thoughts, I had no urge to join any fight around me. I had realized my fight was with myself, not with anyone else, and it had taken me way too long to be victorious.

"Thanks Cupid" I whispered to the Idol, and tried look for him somewhere in the horizon, but he was nowhere to be seen. Yet I felt his loving presence within my heart, and it inspired me to rise back up from the beautiful corpse of my arch-rival.

"Stop this madness, everyone of you!!" I shouted.
 
Soon my ominous laugh echoed the battlefield

- I cast off these petty illusions! Behold, the true vision of the Lord of this World!

Horns sprout out of my body as my skin started to turn outwards allowing me to be free of this pesky prison.

- When I say that this world shall be mine once more! It will be so!

Fountains of blood preluded my return as my flawless body rose from my broken cocoon. I stared down at the orc and I spread my wing.

145260-albums2772-picture77485.gif


- Do you now see the beauty of your real master, and creator!?
This miserable little seedling is mine! For so it was decided!
And even if you believe that your petty rebellion will be able to stop me.. I assure you that you will only delay the inevitable!

I slammed the orc down with the back of my hand, striking him down to the ground.

- Kneel!
 
"Monster! What are you...?" I said while looking at Bernkastel in total shock.

"Damn it, I know I already killed you!? Well, I shall kill you!" Mad King said but he is easily overpowered by the light essence that he fell to the ground.

"A power that is.... arrghhh.... is this the form of a God?" Bartheus said in total shock looking at Bernkastel.


Suddenly, the skies turned so dark like it was the end of the world....

Here comes the true enemy...!
 
((OOC: And here we are, miss, finally...
Nice artwork, by the way!

Oh, and I believe that Bartheus took the Mad King's place in the battle against Paillan))

Captain Am'ar Kardos ~ Final Confrontations!

"Argh!" my body fell through the soft snow, and continued down to the rough rocky ground. A greenskin like myself was hard to break, but pain shot through me as several open bloody rifts occurred on my skin during this unexpected attack.

However, the pain was nothing compared to the sorrow that filled my heart. For a second I really believed that she had reverted back to how I first knew her - this sweet, innocent girl, that I cared for. But her soul had turned dark, and her future could not be changed. Foolish of me to believe so.

"Kneel? You must have missed how I just knelt to an old friend... but to this monstrosity?! Forget it!!" I replied while I got back up, luckily still filled up with courage from the enlightenment before.

I made a swift movement with my staff, successfully triggering its scythe-mode mechanism, and ran towards the twisted witch, swinging my weapon towards her chest, for her black heart was my target.

CLING! The sound of metal clashing against metal filled my ears. A familiar great-sword was in my way, and so was the demon lord carrying it. The Mad King betrayed me, in the worst possibly moment...

"Did you really think I would forgive you for IMPALING MY SON!?!" the Mad King said, angrily.

"Oh please, go away you pest." lady Frederica Bernkastel said, and attacked the king. Eventually, he had foreseen this and parried her attack as well.

"And you, little girl! You stole from me the pleasure of killing Santa! Killing you will perhaps make up for it though, HAHAHAHA" the Mad King's loud villainous laugh spread through the air.

I backed off a few steps, preparing for any attacks that would come from either of those two powerful enemies. And it would seem both of them followed my example. I knew that attacking one could mean a deadly blow from the other.
 
"Damn it.... damn it... this power that Bernkastel is emitting...." I said then suddenly I was forced to somehow kneel. I cannot control myself and I feel like giving up.


All the minions of Bartheus had do the same and like they cannot control themselves.


"Is this the power of.... a god?" I asked Bernkastel
 
- Who do you think you are?! The Lord of Hell? I am the Lord of Hell! This
world is mine! Now, begone!

A divine spear emerged above me and launched at the Mad King.

- Checkmate.

I gazed at the Soulless Army with a smirk on my face.

- Ah, it seems that a part of this world already knows its place. Now.. Slaughter each other!
 
"This girl is strong... Hahahaha!!! This is what I call a challenge and... what are you doing there kneeling Kenny? Do you give up already that you did not even try fighting her." Mad King said then reaching out to me.

"This girl is a monster... Do you really think that your power will surpass her?" I said while kneeling and losing hope.

"Pitiful!" Mad King said then charging at Bernkastel again even at an injured state.
 
I slowly recall the escence I throw to the mad king back to my hand, with no one noticing it.
I talk to the angels "I need MORE escence"

But they just negate by moving their heads and disapear towars heaven

"Typicall angels! But if we are doomed, you a doomed!" I don't know what to do... Then...

"The escence... that's it!" I throw the escence, this time to myself.

"ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I feel the greatest pain ever, men, if this ever touched mad king, it would have wiped him out.
As the light stop shining I feel like something inside me went bigger. My light side. It's now overpowering my darkside.

I slowly go and talk to kenny. "I know we had our fight moment but this is not the time to think about it. I need you to convince you're father to give me his dark escence so I can rebalance my self"

Kenny answers angry as his words were baits "Why would I do that? that would kill him!"

"No it wouldn't..." I start but he interrupts me and talks coldly.

"Even if I would, why would I help you?" I sight

"Because she can only either control light OR darkness, but not both at the same time. Maybe I have a chance?"

Kenny seems shocked "She... can control light to?"

"come on men, didn't you saw her throwing her light spear?" I said angrily

"Okey, but it would be easy to get to my dad..." He says.

"that's why youre body needs to get unsealed" I put my hand over the skull and start taking away the seal.
 
Suddenly, a sword appeared to stab Bernkastel's corpus (or whatever you call the thingie that ate/devour the Mad King).


"Think again! You cannot defeat me easily, girl." Mad King said then stabbing the corpus many times until he finally got out of it.

"You are thinking of your victory so soon and yet, you are far from obliterating ALL OF US!" Mad King said to Bernkastel then laughing.


Mad King appeared to mock Bernkastel with many statements after on what Mad King said.

Suddenly... It was good to hear that there is still a slight chance to beat Bernkastel by hearing what Pailan said.


"So, what shall I do now, Pailan? Go and make the plan. You are the one who knows what to do here." I asked him
 
"I don't now, just tell him something like ´´hey this dude needs youre escence, you don't mind dad?´´ I am just messing with you men, this is going to be difficult even with a light side inside him" I and kenny near the mad king as fast as possible and quickly take him out of strungle.

"QUICK! convince him while I entertain bernkastle!" I point my two blades at her, smile and them say.

"Well, lady, it has been a time since you showed youre real power to this world... and I think it's just trash!"
 
As my injuries regained their original form, I grabbed his throat and lifted him up in the air.

- The fact that you is irrelevant to the time span. I, am the heart of this world!

Dozens of veins struck into Paillan's flesh, bringing their frigid embrace of death inside his very existence. Transitting his life force into me.
 
((OOC: Weee! Huge free-for-all battle!!))

I watched with disgust how the monstrous lady slowly tore out the defenseless Paillan's life into herself through veins, that grew from her very arm.

"I see you're hungry, miss?" I said, and untied my special weapon from my back. The GC3, a green gun that I had saved for a very special moment, and a special enemy - mostly because its damn long reloading time, and the expensive ammo, but more importantly because its effectiveness. I plugged in a matching magical battery and aimed at the twisted mistress.

".. then I got just the thing for you!" I continued, and pulled the trigger with my eyes closed - for the powerful plasma blast from this bastard was damn heavy, and so was its light - too heavy for my sensitive eyes. My aim for her black heart was perfect though, due to years of training. This must be it - the end of my evil rival!
 
"Fack!" I release myself yust in time and jump away and fall to the ground. I slowly stand up. I am very injueried. I realise my human side won't stand such an amount of damage. I slowly make peace inside myself and let that soul part get out. I start healing it.

"That shoot will slow her down..." I say while healing my soul.
 
When I finally heal my other soul and get it inside me I realise that half of our army is dead.

"Oh men that alagreemm, good thing that kenny, mad king and I as demons are inmortals... O no! A'mar and Rheiko!" I tear away my desperation and quickly get them out of the strungle, in the middle of that I pass near kenny.

"Got your dad on the deal?" I say will runing in the opposite direction fo the tea pot and HER.
