  1. Sereth walked to the training grounds with a bounce in his step, he loved teaching! TO instruct others was to impart knowledge, and that he knew was the key to bettering mankind. Even if this particular knowledge would most likely only be used for killing, the people who would be killed would undoubtedly hinder the growth of man, and by extension, limit the growth of knowledge. Something the self-proclaimed philosopher would never forgive them for.

     

    To top it off, this student had intrigued him for the moment that he had met him before. Not to mention that the knowledge he had gained from the previous instructors, especially the lack of strength in the power that most men possessed provided the need for alternate methods of training, not to mention the need for alternative lessons.

     

    As such, the Asha'man doubled timed it to the grounds. Finding Kassian, he smiled broadly. "Hello Kassian, I am Asha'man Sereth Arian, I believe we met once before. Your former teachers tell me that you are a bit weaker in the power, but with perhaps a touch of skill. As such, I have doubts that telling you how to channel earth and fire together, to literally tear the earth asunder in a flaming explosion guaranteed to roast any unfortunate beak-mawed trolloc into Sunday dinner would be quite useless." Sereth had his trademarked slanted goofy smile upon his lips, and his voice matched.

     

    "Still, there are other ways to use the power, and you might be more suited to weeding out darkfriends from among our ranks, perhaps even duels with dreadlords. Though I posses little skill myself, I shall impart what little I know of a few subtler uses of the one power. Unless of course, you'd rather learn the previously mentioned sunday-dinner weave." He let out a chuckle, but it was a serious question. “Though of course, you will be expected to do your part in any major battle we encounter. Though I hear you are a survivor of Shienar, so I doubt that will be to much of an issue.” His eyes closed for a moment, obviously shaken by the memory, though he recovered quickly.

     

    Now was the time for new lessons, not those previously learned.

  2. ((Sorry for quality, being rushed.))

     

    Dhjorn nodded, and with out a word began strafing to the right, keeping his gaze trained upon his fellow Fade. "Alright, the rules are pretty simple. My goal is to touch one of your vitals, and you are to defend, and to make it fun for you, retaliate and try to strike at mine." Without further pause, he dashed at Calaun's left, and he moved to strike at the Ahf'frait female. She of course wasn't to be taken so easily, but as she moved to counter Dhjorn was gone, rolling past her and into the blight brush. 

     

    There he did what he did best, he disappeared. He prayed that she would follow him, enter his territory as opposed to her own open field. He stalked through the brush, always close to the edge to take a peek at his prey. While circling, preparing to launch himself back into the clearing, he heard a rustle of leaves behind him, thinking that the Lady Fade had somehow gotten the better of him, he turned to counter, but found that she wasn't there.

     

    Then, he was in upside down in the air.

     

    A vine had wrapped itself around his ankle, and lifted him. His hands went to the folds of his cloak, digging for his daggers. Finding them, he ripped them from his hidden sheaths, and cut at the cables surrounding his ankles. He fell with an oomph, and walked out of the dense foliage. "That did not go as planned..." As he moved to sheath his daggers, he felt a rumbling in the ground. His gaze locked with Calaun's, and if possible he turned a shade whiter, before turning to run.

     

    Worms were on their way.

  3. MSN is a bit of a problem, Tal. I might be able to get on later today. Jeh, if you could start the thread that'd be great. I started the two between our novices and fades.  :P

     

    Speaking of which I've got a couple of novice posts to do.  :-[

     

    As for you Tal, its been a while since I've taught anything Saidin related, but I'll try to talk to you on MSN about it.

     

    And stones with the storm leader sounds like fun... Might even help get their minds off of Shienar a bit.

  4. Dhjorn could have smiled at the girl's impatience. He doubted that she would be able to fulfill the mission he made for himself; she'd never be able to wait out her mark. Still, that was of little consequence. At this moment it did behoove the pair to move quickly, less they be discovered, and that would simply never do. "Well, it is simple really. I hope you will forgive me for saying this, but you are very... direct. You will most likely attract a lot of unwanted attention, and thus, will more than likely have my kind sent after you. Being able to detect and counter assaults from the shadows will save your life Calaun Ontrix Seyr, and I." He actually allowed a grin to touch his pasty dead features, though his voice held not a bit of warmth. "Well I need to practice catching you. As such, I propose a simple game of tag, weapons sheathed of course."

     

    As he spoke, he hid the twin daggers inside the folds of his midnight cloak, and drew out his bare hands again. "Of course I'd never ask one of your clan to leave their weapon behind. So, what do you think of my proposition? I suppose we could simply duel, if you think you can already avoid the assassin’s blade."

  5. Lol, Sereth...

     

    Str: 11

    Dex: 10

    Con: 14

    Int: 16

    Wis: 17

    Cha: 8

     

    Physical abilities are a little below average, cept con, but thats only cause he hard hardly feels the taint. Int and Wis I doubt anyone will argue with, and his ability to constantly ward off people, because of his personality quirks. In 3.5 I'd probably go cleric, 4.0 definitly a wizard. I only played like, seven games of 2, hardly remember it.  :'(

     

  6. My internet is acting up bad, I'm downloading at maybe 128 bytes per second, getting that only once every few days. It may very well only be this crappy weather I've been having lately (I have a satellite connection since I'm in the boonies.) Either way, I'm having enough trouble keeping up with some responsibilities that I have for school and work, and I can't guarantee I'll be posting at all until I figure out the problem and fix it, even if I have to make a weather machine to do it. I'll try to get on at school, but they are watching me like a hawk since I have full server access, networking administrator wants me to implement a few things on the school website, and she really has no idea what shes doing. >_>;

     

    Figured I'd let you all know so you didn't think I was abandoning you (again), especially those of you whom I have active RPs and personal friendships with.

  7. The air was still, this moonless night not yielding even a single gust. That was fine for Dhjorn, whom stood at the center of a wide clearing, his black hood pulled up around his pale features, his hands hidden in his cloak. The silence was oppressive, not a single blighted creature dared stir on this night, and that put the future assassin at peace. These moments were rare this far north, where the screams of the dying were common place, and even the plants shifted to stalk their prey. He was one with the rotting foliage around him.

     

    Much more importantly, he'd hear if even a fellow Myrddraal approached, which was exactly what he was expecting. Sure enough, he heard the near silent footfalls, as his new ally approached the clearing, a place that held fond memories for both of the eyeless. When the woman's muscled form appeared over the horizon, Dhjorn nodded his head once in acknowledgment.

     

    "Greetings Calaun, I trust everything is well?" An eyeless gaze fell to the axe looped at the woman's belt, remembering how well she could aim that thing. Don't let your guard down yet... She might yet turn. Still, he dared say that this night favored he and his own hidden daggers. Still, he doubted that he'd need to resort to such drastic measures against Calaun; they both had far to much to gain.
