Escape from The Circus of Windows [RP thread]

Discussion in 'Roleplay Archives' started by Gist, Jun 1, 2013.

  1. Escape from Le Cirque des Fénètres​

    The Circus of Windows is an odd place, one that is filled with amazing wonders and grotesque monuments. The performers here range far and wide in terms of uniqueness, nerve, charisma, and talent. They tempt people into releasing their pent-up doubts and to let their inner selves run wild. It's a fun place to go vent and have fun. However, the one thing that they hide is the fact this circus is only a disguise. A ruse. A scam. The Church has placed world-class demon hunters who have vowed to seek to the ends of the earth to find and eradicate any and all scents of heresy. One could call this overzealous, but another would call this enthusiasm. Yet the dark seeds of temptation have been planted in four of the performers. Can they resist the call from the carnal sins of the flesh, or will they revel and burn in ecstasy?

    We join Daniel and Annette as they warm up before heading out into the dark night. Not too much of a workout, but enough to warrant a slight effort.​

  2. [Edward starts at H5.]

    Taking position in the center of the room, Edward looks to the openness in front of him. The Training Arena stood, looming, and he knew that this was just to prepare him for the outside. Whatever was out in the darkness was far worse than what they could replicate here. The atmosphere around him, however, is what makes him sick. Pushing his hair off his face, Edward looks at the three mannequin standing across from him. "Goodness, this should be easy. But, I shouldn't say that too fast. I don't even see anyone else here to help me."

    Making sure his wings were tucked away, Edward shook his hair back into his face and waited.

  3. Annette starts at cell H-6

    They had to fight these bastards before they left for their nightly hunt? Did the people who run this damn place think they were so out of practice that they needed to beat up dolls? Annette let out a small sigh and brushed her hair away from her right eye, though she did not bother with her left. Her silver hair still covered the eye, and surprisingly enough her aim was still almost perfect despite lacking in depth perception. Perhaps it was because she had been doing this for quite some time now and she's become so skilled in using a bow that she only needed one eye to bury one of her bolts into the head of her target. Either way she would make quick work of the dolls and move onto a real challenge.

    "Make this quick." Annette said in quite a demanding tone.

  5. [size=x-small][Edward moves to E5.]
    [Edward waits.]    [/size]

    Upon finally seeing an ally, Edward rolls his eyes. "An impatient one, just my luck." He moved forward, keeping a straight path towards the mannequin directly in front of him. Opening his palm, he materializes his dark bow into his left hand. Drawing the bow back, him takes aim at the mannequin. Unlucky for him, he can't get well enough aim. Dropping the bow to his side, Daniel speaks over his shoulder.

    "Yes, I agree. We do need to be quick about this. But not so quick that we get stupid." He again turns his focus to the mannequin and waits.

  6. Annette moves to cell G-6

    Annette inwardly laughed at her so-called ally's precaution. These things were hardly even worth her time, she wouldn't need to go all out against them. She would disassemble these 'dolls' quickly and efficiently then move onto something that was actually worth her while. She took one of her silver bolts and loaded her crossbow, taking aim at the doll in the center. The moment it entered striking distance she would bury a bolt in its head.

    Annette waits

  8. Annette moves to cell F-6

    The damn thing was being quite careful with approaching her and this other man. Seemed like they had some semblance of intelligence or they would've just charged forward without hesitation. Ah well, won't matter to her one bit. Intelligent or not these things were incredibly weak and would likely fall to only one or two of her crossbow bolts, three at the most. Taking some steps forward Annette aimed her crossbow at one of the dolls and fired.

    Annette uses Condemn on A002. 8 ATK Dmg. 80% chance of critical hit

  9. [size=x-small][Edward moves to E2 (E5-E4-E3-E2).][/size]

    The mannequins begin their movement. Instead of coming directly at Edward and his partner, they move into a strategic position. One shifts slightly to the right, and the other two begin skirting around the outside edge. Edward shifts his position towards the mannequin on his left. Standing across from it, Edward draws back on his bow. Nocking an arrow onto the bowstring, Edward takes aim at the mannequin and fires.
