Coaster 2086 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Towns will burn, Castles will fall, villages will be razed. There are no rules in this engagement. There are no innocents in this war. The Bandit War has begun. The famous bandit and experienced villain Wrath has refused to submit his group The Keepers to the numerically superior Hallowed Bandits. Both sides have members previously aligned to the other, with all members being seasoned veterans of death and torture. ((All Participants have villain applications) Loyalties will be broken, and the result will change Asulon forever. http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/39863-a-message-to-wrath/ ((I've asked Pok permission to use his war thread idea, major battles and developments will be posted here.)) Combatants The Hallowed Bandits - 17 armed bandits - 5 Slaves - The Hallowed Keep Wrath's Keepers - 12 armed bandits - Wrath's Clutch Rules of Engagement As stated, there are no restrictions to tactics which either side uses in order to achieve victory, we are all bandits, outlaws of society, the laws of wars and chivalry do not apply to us. (To the extent of your villain applications of course) The Spoils The winner will receive: - The entire remaining membership of the loser - All resources and estates of the losing party - The title of "The Bandit King" (Unofficial of course) Developments Ahad, 15th of The Amber Cold, 6: With the victory at Wraths Clutch, The Keepers now match the Hollowed Bandits in equipment and manpower. Ahad, 1st of MAlins Welcome, 7: The war is finally over, with an alliance being formed between Wrath and Prince against the town of Andromeda. Battle 1: Skirmish at the Cloud Forest Hallowed Bandit Victory Prince woke with a sudden gasp, regaining his senses. He was still at the Cloud Temple. He sighs, looking to his side and seeing Fenrir and Thrive brandishing their weapons. He nuzzles himself into his chestplate and tries to sleep again. Thrive nudges him, "Boss, there they are.". Prince looks up, grinning under his red bandanna at the sight of Wrath and his goons, making their way over to them. Standing up to his full height, Wrath immediately recognizes him. "Ye best not follow us.", he warns. Both sides knew what was coming, and Prince simply states, "Not here.", regarding the holy ground he was standing on. Wrath shrugs, and walks down the road to Elven land, Prince and his men following. They followed them out to a narrow area, where the two bandit groups silently watched each other. Rain began falling, soaking the men. The fight ensues. - Prince pulls his sword out of the last opponent, grinning. "VICTORY!", he shouts as he points his bloody sword to the clouds. His men do likewise, and they begin the walk back to their fortress. Little do they know that the war is far from over... Battle 2: Siege of Wrath's Clutch Keepers Victory Prince coughs up blood, groaning. He opens his eyes, seeing the high ceiling and visceral decoration of the cloud temple. He looks around him, and sees more then a dozen of his friends, laying wounded and dying. He tries to recall the events that lead up to the horrendous defeat... As he rallied his men, Prince is surprised to see a party of orcs, diamond clad and armed to the teeth arrive. Expecting a fight, he pulled out his weapon and beckoned for his men to do likewise. "STOMP WRATH!" yelled one orc, Prince smiled, they had come as allies. Expecting an easy fight, Prince and his new allies marched onto the Clutch, but what they found was far from a simple victory.... ...Prince shakes his head, as if to remove the memory of crippling defeat from his mind. Wrath had utterly crushed him, and the war was now farther then ever from resolution. Wrath had far more men then he had expected, and the armor and weapons his men had dropped would supply them for years. Stumbling out of his bed, he begins to inspect his injured friends. Battle 3: Siege of the Hallowed Keep Draw The deciding factor had come, if Wrath could take the Hallowed Keep, the Bandit War would be over, and he would be the Bandit King. He looked upon the high outer walls of the mountain fortress. Behind it, Prince, and his men. Grinning with malice under his helm, he lets forth a war cry, and rallies his men to battle. The fight lasted for hours, with losses for both sides. However, finally Wrath decides to retreat, realizing that any victory would be pyrrhic. The defenders weakly cheer, having also lost many men. The war is coming to a close quite obviously, both sides have suffered. One final battle will most likely decide it all.
