The Echser Castle

[Blazed Soul]

Ivolt rushed through the door to see...... no one. Damn, he'd gone the wrong way. Looking around the room, he saw that he was in what appeared to be a foyer, with a staircase leading down into the center, and another staircase leading to another room. A nice place if nothing else, but there wasn't time to think about that.

Running down the stairs, he jump from one staircase to the other, and quickly ran to the door opposite from where he'd entered. Maybe this would lead somewhere new?

With that thought, he opened the door cautiously, and walked through.

The door D.C. fell through morphed itself into the celling of the Hunter's Lounge and with a simple thump, she landed on one of the elogant couches as she looked around her surroundings. The heads were a little too much for her taste but the fur pelts on the floor were to die for. She got off the couch and went to stroking the fur, the feel of the fur was amazing. Smooth one way, rugged the other way; back and forth she repeated this process eventually becoming lost her own world as the feeling of ecstasy returned bring chills up her spine imagined all the fun she could have with these. Not aware that the heads weren't the only things watching her.

A quick spell cast, on him, and his perception of time slowed. Or perhaps he was moving faster? Both, it seemed, as if others were moving in slow motion. He jumped out of cover, landing by D.C. quickly with his newly found haste. During his jump, he had quickly tossed out two sets of knives and daggers, all 12 of them flying at her with pinpoint accuracy.

As he landed, Burning Horizon appeared in his hands, and he began fighting with great skill with the sword, as if it was liquid, guaranteeing him at least two good hits as he swung the Keyblade rapidly five times at her back.

((Turn one: Haste used, doubling remaining turns, using up one round of Haste, Sneak Broken, Turn two: Rapid Shot: Six becomes 12, 12 Ranged Attacks = 24 damage, Turn three-seven: Blade Dance = 2 guaranteed hits, 5 hits = 10 damage, 24+10 = 34 damage.))

Ivolt pushed open the door to see a lovely room, full of animal heads, pelts, horns, and the other two guests of this castle. Great. He had entered just in time to see Malthus's quite brutal attack on the Cheri, and had decided that if the other two were going to fight, then he couldn't do anything else than jump in...or get dragged in.

Casting a spell on himself to get an edge, he dashed forward, jumped up and over the two, landed and lunged towards Malthus with a brutally fast stab, followed up by a quick flurry out slashes of slashes from Jambiya and Rondell, three from each dagger. Unless the guy moved quick, he was about to get a back full of steel.

[Used:Haste + Extended Haste (4 turns left), Advanced Parkour/Advanced Jump Boost, followed by Precision Stab, Three slashes with Bladed Weapon Trainee. Total Damage: 1.5 damage + ((1x1.5)x6)= 10.5 total, rounded to 11 damage]

While she was in her world, 12 piercing pains came along her entire body. With just a few seconds she looked over her shoulder just to see that parnoided one attack her with a giant key. While two of the attack knocked her backwards, she was able to cast a sheild against her back blocking the last three attacks. She turned around and saw the other guest arrive to take on her other attacker. DC had to smile at her good fortune, even with the pain of having what was mostly like 10 knives in her body this had worked out well for her. With a snap of her fingers, Three DC appeared and directing two to come with her she ran through the door leaving the other one to do her bidding but not before leaving a gift of graditude, the form of the cloud again.

DC #3 grabbed her whip, inhaled and exhaled as electricity coursed through her body. She then kissed the handle of her whip, charging it with electricity as well. Then with a smirk on her face she pulled the whip back and snapped it forward towards her first attacker.

((All 12 knives hit there marks, the two hits with the Keyblade scored along with knocking two knives off of DC body. DC uses Protect Lv3 to stop the last three attacks. DC uses Superior Clones, and exits stage right with two of the clones casting Toxic as she leaves. Clone 3 uses Lightening Soul Lv1, then cast Shock Infusion finally launching her first attack against Malthus.
So 24+ 2(10/5)= 28 damage total. If you object to this logic Pryth let me know.))

"Ahhhh!" Malthus screamed as the first blow landed, and reacted instinctively, rolling forward just in time to dodge the next strike. He whirled around... just in time to catch the next blow on his arm. At least it wasn't anywhere vital, but the pain was cutting through Malthus's rage, both an advantage and disadvantage right now. Finally, his mind came into the picture.

This was not a good place to be, and he needed to get out of this place. He'd lost the tactical advantage. Jumping over Ivolt as he made the next slash with Can't Catch Me, he slid past and grabbed the two daggers that had fallen from D.C.'s body. Luckily, the daggers were easier to fight with in close combat if need be. He slipped them away just in time to roll away from the clone's attack. Rushing to the door Ivolt had entered, Malthus was sickened by the effects of the toxic gas that was impossible to avoid in this room.

(My roll... 6.)

He opened the door and dashed through into a giant empty dining room. "Ugh..." He groaned, feeling like he wanted to throw up, and slipped under the long tablecloth to hide from others.

((Dodge Roll, Can't Catch Me, Dodge Roll. 2 slashes plus Toxic's effect = 7 damage. Turns left for Toxic: 4. Turns left for Haste: 3.))

Ivolt's determined look slipped slightly as the guy he was attacking managed to avoid a good number of his attacks, along with the now decidedly creepy woman's attack. He didn't have time to dwell on that though, as he got a face full of the gas the woman had blown at them.

Coughing, he pulled away and ran through the door that the original woman and two of her doubles ran through.

(Roll: 4)

Pushing through the door, he came out in a large dining hall, and wait a minute. He'd seen the other guy run through a door on the opposite side of the room, but now he saw him running through a door on the opposite side of this room! What the hell!?

Staring at the guy on the other end of the table, he half said, half shouted due to the size of the room, "Hey! How the hell did you get over there!? We went in opposite directions!"

He had to stop and wince though as a wave of nausea overtook him, most likely from the poison.

((Damage Taken: 4 from Toxic, 3 turns left of Haste, 4 turns left of Toxic))

D.C. and company came out from the doors into a dining room with the two gentlemen on either side of the table. From the looks of them they were pretty ill, which was pretty good for her. D.C. 1 pulled her whip out and hand it over to D.C. as she bite down on the handle and with the combined force of the two clones they quickly removed the other ten knives impaled into D.C. as she moaned and winced in an excited way. With five knives with each of the clones, they opened the door and tossed them through hoping to never see them again. D.C. panted a little bit as she gave the whip back to her clone. The two clones stood in front of her as much like their 'sister' before them did the same thing. Each one going for a respective opponent as D.C. stayed back to catch her breath.
((Dice roll... 6))
With no one in the room anymore, D.C. 3 walked over to the door and walk through it, coming into what was most likely an old balnea for bathing. D.C. walked further into room waiting for her opponents to show their face to her.

((Random dice roll... 3,2,6,3,2,3,2,6,2,4))

Three of the knives that the clones tossed through the door fell from the ceiling of the grand staircase and hit the floor with an echoing clang. Another one also fell from the ceiling but ended up in the same room as D.C. 3 which made her jump but upon further examination notice the knife and placed it on her person. The other six knives ended up falling from the ceiling that everyone was in at random places. Three landed on the table with one implanting into the old wood straight up((15 points)). Two landed behind Ivolt and one landed in the chair cushion in front of Malthus.

((Pulling the blades out will do at least half damage, to 10*.5= 5 damage. I'm being fair by doing this but again any problem with this, though I'm not really expecting any, just let me know so it can be corrected. Much like Clone 3, Clones 1&2 use Lightening Soul Lv1, then cast Shock Infusion finally launching their first attacks. Clone 1 is going after Ivolt and Clone 2 is going for Malthus.))

[prythian]

Malthus hissed under the effects of the poison as he focused not on Ivolt, but on D.C. He quickly grabbed the knife that landed in front of him, throwing it with all the accuracy he could muster at the base of the whip of Clone 2 while moving to the side to avoid any attack from her. Another toss and he flung his daggers at the clone as well to distract her, before jumping up, bouncing off the ceiling, and landing near D.C., the only one of the three that wasn't attacking and the one he'd seen the knives removed from.

A quick flash of fists! Malthus fired five punches at her rapidly with the speed of his haste, attempting to hit her anywhere he could.

((Throw at whip to cut it, 2 Daggers at Clone 2 = 4 damage, Flash of Fists = difficult to escape or defend, 5 punches = 15 damage, 4 damage from Toxic))
