Oliver had his tray of soggy hashbrowns and orange juice aside, lazily doodling in his notebook. He had the habit of losing himself in his daydreams whenever he sat with his notebook, which was often. Either by drawing scenes, types of equipment for the members of both factions in his...
Oliver struggled to get out of bed. He never got used to the whole "waking up early" thing, why would you spend more and more time in the oppressive light of the Unconquered Sun? However, sleeping in meant no breakfast, not to mention the punishments. He had to have his body primed if anything...

"I guess we can't have the luxury of introductions, do we?" Joseph twirled the axe in his hand as he pointed to the monsters, either chasing away the civilians or feeding on them. "Is it just me or I do not fear death, right now?" He said as he smiled. The...

The bus ride downtown was awkward. Joseph sat on the back of the bus, holding an axe almost his size covered in a semi burnt-out blanket - three more fires started since he left home - and the attention was growing. The bus driver almost kicked him out of the...

The day of the Invasion began like any other.
The sun cast away the shadows of the night, making way to a brand new day in Villenbourgh, Ohio. The sizable town, however, was already awake hours ago. Trucks with valuable cargo reached the stores and...
The observatory room's entrance was through a side set of stairs that led further upward, but the group didn't need to climb it. Adler appeared on the rampart of the observatory, a decaying smile decorating his undead face."Aaah, wilkommen! I suppose this is the part where the valiant heroes...
After the farewells, Myremon returned to his group. "Yes, let's go. Elyssa probably had her fun already. The battle will probably be rough, so be prepared." Shi nodded nervously, right before receiving a reassuring pat on the back from Nazzek. "Don'tcha worry, lass! We'll be okay, you'll see!"...
Myremon listened closely as the scene unfolded. "I turned into a wraith by the master of this castle. The official mission is to rescue the missing, but my objective here is to take care of 'Herr Doctor'." He said, his voice dripping with disgust. "There's a girl wrecking havoc on the deeper...
Myremon looked at the blade on the wall briefly, before staring down at his assailant. Shi immediately rushed towards the injured, placing her hands and concentrating, healing them. He looked at Rena, and breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought you were a goner, Rena. I'm glad to see that you're...
Myremon kept restoring Ash's mana, until she was in enough shape to keep going. "It was Elyssa. She drained mana from the environment and the people around her to fuel her abilities." He rose Ash to her feet and patted her on the head. "How are you feeling? Good enough to keep going?" Shi was...
Angelus stared at the room in front of them, astonished. "This is just plain sadistic. We should-" He was cut off by a low-pitched scream that came from the other side. "Goddamn it, we have wounded!" Without thinking twice, Angelus darted through the gored room, faster than a normal person due...
Angelus sighed, annoyed. The amount of traps has been irritating, and now they were holed up, either waiting for the gun to empty itself out or for something to happen. Their barrier would soon give in, and the hero wanted to save his energy if the confrontation with Noda would go south.
Before...
Myremon gritted his teeth when Elyssa attacked. "Mana drain..." He felt his energy flowing out of him, and only then he noticed the energy within Elyssa, or the lack thereof. Her whole body was of an engulfing darkness that seemed to drain all energy around her. After the electric demon fell, he...
Gallien pondered Heather and Devi's reports. It was strange, the appearance of the so called "green entities" and the increase of the occurrences of bandit activity in the area. Were the two things connected? Gallien was getting restless, especially when fighting something that he doesn't know...
Adler laughed. "Oh, I know this voice. Is that you, my dear Whirlpool? It is good that you came back, fräulein!" Myremon gritted his teeth from under his mask. "Doctor... I swear by the gods that I will end you today." Another laugh came from everywhere. He looked around and saw clear floating...
The entrance of the laboratory had a horrible smell, rotting and burnt flesh mixing with the pungent smell of blood. The lifeless corpses, at least the ones that still had faces, were locked in an expression of pure horror and pain. Nazzek coughed loudly, covering his face, while Shi just looked...
Gallien nodded. "I have to agree with Ava here. I don't like to risk anything that could cause harm to the soldiers. However, this spell could prove helpful in the future so please, keep me updated." He turned to Devi, chuckling. "That question was worded wrong. It was more about asking about...
Gallien rose back to his nest with Devi and Ava in tow, making small talk until the reached the office. He was startled when he saw the warlock already inside of it. Hati always had this uncanny aura around him, as if his presence wasn't truly there. The fact that he often talked to himself...
Gallien shook his head at Xavier. "No, thank you, Xavier. I have to deal with the travel arrangements so we can move out as soon as possible, in fact-" Gallien was interrupted by the Hummingbird, Ava, bumping herself in the group and knocking Emily's vial on the ground. The bright red potion...
