hemomancy

A rogue squire trudges amongst snowy trees. Alone; she was solitary. A loaded crossbow resting in her gloved hands. It was a normal trip, out hunting as a form of stress relief. In the air, the sound of a branch snapping rang out. Meredith turns, pointing the bow towards that noise - Nothing. Nothing there except empty space. Continuing on, the only sound was the crunching of frozen snow, and icy winds that seemed to blow only into her ears. Now, a flurry of flakes began to fall around her. An arrow whizzed past her head. She ducked, stumbling over her own two feet. Flattening herself down, eye widened as she crawled through the snow. Her crown of hair undone, and her pace decreasing. Upon reaching a tree, the Barclay stood up behind it. Looking past the bark, her brows furrowed seeing not a soul amongst the area. Another arrow fired. She stood there. The crossbow in her arms dropped as a hand reached to her chest; feeling the wet tip the arrow piercing her chest. The woman slumped forwards with not a second to comprehend, knees buckling as she fell. Meredith Barclay was dead. The corpse was dragged to the gates of Haense, a note pinned to her garbs. “I’ve stayed my hand in the West and the East. Now I come for your North. You will know the Broken.”

Nocturne, Teagen White They trudged amongst the snow, their leather boots crushing the fresh powder. A flurry, cascading down around them. Unbothered, the figure continued. A satchel hung across their torso, bouncing with every frigid step. Squeaking. Squeak. Squeak. Squeak. The Lady stopped, a hand raising to her shoulder to pluck the creature up. A rat; red-eyed, white as snow, just as she. Tucked away was the pet, into a pocket within her garbs- warm, hopefully, for the small thing. Missives now hung in the cities of Man. The realms of man are ones often deserving of consequence. Their actions repeat, never cease; a cycle of those who cannot agree when they are one and the same. Creatures opposing what will come, what will always come. Short, meaningless lives cut shorter from their own affairs. Their minds easily broken from outside pressures. Twisted words harm more than most. Fragile. Short Lived. What accomplishments are there to show for. Dead leaders, fall cities. That is all one remembers. What is it for, descendants of Man? Your honor and glory only come after death. Signed, Pestilence

A drama loving young teen enjoys this, and gives a vague thumbs up to the thin air around her.

Cresence is appaled! "Damn Valah and their weird things."

The dark haired woman looks down a the corpse, and musing to the other; "Dinner." Disregarding the smell of iron and vanilla, and picking the man clean of his earthly possessions, Lady Pestilence sat down on the rocks of the Celia'norian undercity. Picking off the flesh and muscle from that mans body and consuming it with her sharpened teeth. The remains were left in that same spot, to decompose and rot, no kind fashion or fate.

perfect anywho, as a long time totallynotmurderhobo now playing as a Wendy's Frosty- i don't think murder is needed for good villainy. if i gotta kill someone (because food), sure! i'll do it, so long as i try to put on a good show of it so it's fun and entertaining for both of us. or, i can try and induct them into a cannibalistic cult, really just depends on if somebody's peckish. hey, least with frosties if you're ever caught, new disguise lol

The one who originally published the banishment of Peralien from Vortice long ago may be dead, but a daughter still wanders; none the wiser about any would-be relatives and their own demises.

The Right to Liberty The individual is recognized to bear the right to live without chains or oppression.

Domestic Rights The Right to Arms The individual is recognized to bear the right to armaments. The Right to Due Process The individual is recognized to bear the right to fair trial. The Right to Property The individual is recognized to bear the right to ownership of lawful property. CIVIL LAW Article I: Identification 1.1. Personhood Living entities counted among the four descendent races (elves, dwarves, humans, orcs, etc.), including half-breeds, are officially recognized as persons and are thus entitled to universal rights. 1.2. Non-Descendents Living entities not counted among the four descendent races, but deemed capable of sentience and reason, and conceived via natural means, may be entitled to universal rights provided they are granted a lawful permit via the Crown and Government. However, this does not qualify as personhood. 1.3. Citizenship An individual recognized as a person shall be deemed a citizen of the realm under the following clauses. a) Born to citizens, either a mother or father, of the Princedom of Elvenesse. b) Granted citizenship under the lawful authority of the Crown and Government. 1.4. Foreigners An individual recognized as a person originating from outside the realm shall be deemed a foreign visitor. Unless provisions (decree, pact, treaty, etc.) state otherwise, they are not entitled to the same domestic rights as citizens of the Princedom of Amaethea. 1.5. Revocation of citizenship An individual's citizenship may be revoked by lawful decree of the Crown and Government. 1.6. Maturity An individual is deemed to have reached physical maturity at the age of eighteen. Article II: Contracts & Labor 2.1. Formation The first requisite of a lawful contract is that the involved parties should have reached an agreement, legitimized to adhering to the following principles. a) An offer via words or conduct, to contract on specified terms, is required with the clear intention that it is to be legally binding once accepted by the party to whom it is addressed. b) A final expression of consent, via words or conduct, is required by the recipient in reply to the proponent’s offer. It must be accepted in accordance with the precise terms of said offer if it is to form an agreement. Said agreement is the basis of the contract, but not sufficient in itself to create legal obligations. c) A consideration from the proponent is required in order to make the promised agreement enforceable as a contract. However, whilst said consideration must prove sufficient and be provided by the promisee, it need not move to the promisor. Rather, the terms may entail that the promisor gives something up, or that a third party receives at their request. 2.2. Contents Should the legality of the contents within a contract be called into question, the terms can be assessed within the following categories: Express terms and Implied Terms. a) Express terms are ones that the involved parties have set out in their agreement, either written or verbal. They must be interpreted objectively, on the basis of what a reasonable person in the position of the parties would have understood the words to mean. i) Where a contract has been put in writing, there is the presumption said piece was intended to include all the agreed express terms. In this case, neither party can rely on extrinsic evidence of terms alleged to have been agreed, though it is admissible if the document wasn’t intended to contain all valid details. b) A contract may contain terms which are not expressly stated but instead implied, either because the parties intended this, or by the operation of law, or by custom or usage. The validity of said implications can be determined via such concepts as necessity, principle, efficiency, and how obvious they are. 2.3. Termination In the event one party is undermined by a breach of contract, they have the lawful right to be released from their obligations to perform as a result of another party’s defective or non-performance, arising within the following situations. a) Where a party repudiates the terms of the contract and absolutely refuses to perform according to the set standards. b) Where a party renders completion of the contract impossible due to disabling oneself so as to not perform. c) Where a party fails to perform substantially and thus deprives the party of what they bargained for, according to the agreement set within the contract. 2.4. Damages Should one party be substantially deprived of what they bargained for, according to the agreement set within the contract, then they have the right to seek compensation. Said income is determined by the value of those losses, interpreted and granted by the Judiciary. Article III: Domestic Relations 3.1. Marriage A sacred union between two individuals as partners in a personal relationship, legitimized under the authority of either the Crown or the Faith. 3.2. Divorce A procedure through which a married couple legally separate, resolved under the supervision of the judiciary, with the respective items belonging to both parties restored to their rightful owners and shared items fairly distributed.

When writing simple player-pet creatures (there will be more), would the formatting be the same as the ET creatures?

im the true joke here

I'm mostly unfamiliar with Alchemical reagents, items, etc, but I've had ideas of adding alchemical aspects to the creature's i've been writing- as of now the webs have no use. These little hellish dudes would definitely be able to be a sort of 'sign' of voidal related presences, but I do not think objects/beings that react to voidal energies would have any real affect. Void opposed factions can make their own choice on whether or not they find these guys to be offensive to them, besides having something like faint relations to the void. And ask away! I'm planning on writing more, so I'd love critique's/ideas.
