[Nexus] Outside XXIV
This place is just as it sounds. It's outside.
Want a change of scenery? Go outside.
Always wanted to visit the beach? Come outside.
Looking to have a climatic fight on clifftops? Attempt outside.
Secret meetings being held where there's no cameras? Try outside.
Want an ambush without nasty base defenses? Yep. Outside.
Any and all are welcome here. There are no NPCs unless you bring them in. The major exception is the creepy eyed squirrel. The creepy eyed squirrel does not interfere with anyone. The creepy eyed squirrel is everywhere outside. The creepy eyed squirrel is always watching. The creepy eyed squirrel never sleeps. The creepy eyed squirrel can not be damaged, manipulated, or killed by anyone. The creepy eyed squirrel will eat anyone's very being who attempts to do so. Anyone can god-mode the creepy eyed squirrel. You may pet the creepy eyed squirrel at your own risk.
Other NPCs currently include:
The menacing crabs. These intimidating creatures are usually found by the shore.
The non-existant duck. You'll miss every time you shoot at it.
There is very little you can't do outside. However, like always, please follow the forum rules and general rules of conduct. Private conversations can be held outside. If it seems like a private (secret) conversation, please respect that. Those having such a conversation should do their best to indicate it as such. Otherwise, other characters may stumble upon you. Those desiring to spy in on private conversations should first PM those holding the private conversation, more out of courtesy than anything else.
There are many areas outside, and people can be in multiple places outside. In order to keep areas outside separated so there's no confusion, consider bolding your outside location at the start of each of your posts, like so:
Note Reinholdt and Calublufiok do not interact because they are in different areas outside. They could interact, if Reinholdt moves to the cliffside. Of course, various things like telepathy help bypass this. Also, please note outside has no major buildings, though minor ones crop up from time to time.
And most importantly, enjoy outside. That's what this is all about.
Outside now contains various Outside locations! Such as...
Spoiler[Dead Pine Lake]
SpoilerThis lake lies in the middle of the forest. On the eastern shore, woodpeckers feast on the dead pines that give the lake its name. Sometimes one can find Lady Death here, the Aspect of Eve also known as The Grandmother, or Jedwiga.
(Please PM happyturtle if you wish to interact with Jedwiga.)
Spoiler
[The Islands]
Spoiler
An island cluster forms an archipelago along the coast. Some of the islands are settled, some not, but most are at least occasionally visited by the fishermen who work these waters.
[Gersemi's Island]
Spoiler
Gersemi the seighkona lives on a small island in the archipelago with a single hut and a few sheep. Inside the hut, there is a single room, and a fireplace. A loom rests in one corner.
(Please PM happyturtle if you wish to interact with Gersemi.)
[Redbrick Falls]
Spoiler
A mountainous, cliffy region with a prominent waterfall. A large quarry once was worked in these cliffs. Now, only a few scattered villages and solitary dwellings remain.
[Norosa, Great City of the Elves]
SpoilerA Lawful Evil city with an incredibly strong military and a very charismatic leader (Archmage Tyrion Lannister). It has a few CG resisters, but, otherwise, it is a city of peace and law, despite its evil nature.
[Brillian's Baneful Bestiary]
SpoilerA secret series of caves where a mad scientist lives. A mad scientist who creates mutant attack creatures. These can be purchased for the right price.
[Auxiliary MagCave]
Spoiler
A relic from the days of the Age of Apocalypse, this abandoned cavern was once used by the infamous cyborg Magtok as a back-up laboratory and underground fortress, should Calublufiok have ever stormed the primary MagCave.
[The Katz Motel]
SpoilerLocated in the middle of Nowhere, our roadside motel is the only decent place for miles near the Taverna that has a bed. Run by a suave anthropomorphic cat, there is a strict No Dogs policy.
A bellhop by the name of Bates is always ready to assist in carrying your luggage. Please ignore his constant mutterings about his mother. Other more unsavory employees can occasionally be found. Please try to avoid eye contact with them.
We at the Katz Motel wish to ensure you have a splendid stay. Any inconvenience due to randomly locking doors, giant spiders, secret passages, vampires, creepy paintings, and the occasional possession and subsequent exorcism are incredibly rare. Just look at our complaint cards! Not a single one mentions dying horribly in their sleep or becoming food for the monster in the basement.
And if you get bored, the owner will always be up for a game of sport, old boy.
((The Katz Motel is a horror filled place with the highest casualty rate of any motel in the Nexus area. Checking in is usually pretty easy and pleasant. Checking out is rare. Anyone can play the Motel and the NPCs within, free to invent their own horror. The NPCs within that can die usually only suffer death temporarily, the supernatural force causing the disturbances bringing them back to life for its own nefarious purposes. PCs get no benefit from this.))
[The Troll Cave]
SpoilerA cave in a craggy hill. The undergrowth outside is trampled completely flat, and there's not much wildlife. There's a burned patch where a fire is sometimes there. Inside are a few large caves, linked by surprisingly smooth tunnels that look like something big has been regularly pushing through them.
[Blind Cat's Bluff]
SpoilerA sheer cliff dropoff that travels straight down into the water, this is a favored point of people who commit suicide, romantics wanting to watch the sunset and anyone looking to get rid of evidence. The drop is pretty far and there are rocks at the bottom that spell almost certain doom, so watch your step.

"Um... sometime in the mornin? Afternoon, if ye feel like." Cornelia says, wondering when she'd have the most free time. The gunslinger nods eagerly.
"Doesn't sound like there was a whole lot to miss." Legion says, giving a small frown. Still, amazement is obvious in her tone. She looks around, then. "Yeah, don't get a whole lot free-er than here. I mean, we rob banks and don't get arrested. How cool is that?"My avatar was done by Gullara. Thanks again!

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXIV
Oh look! All the other guards ran away! Which means Keld arrived too late to make absolutely any difference in the battle! Yay.
[Slaver Plawt]
Solid stone of what kind? Such things may suddenly be called into question as stone meets steel. The steel of Keld's gauntleted fist as he simply attempts to slam it through the stone armor. And possibly grab Cessie. He's quite strong that way.Last edited by Ashen Lilies; 2011-06-11 at 02:21 AM.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXIV
[Most Definitely Not Suspicious or Haunted Mansion]
In the middle of nowhere, but still somewhere in the Nexus, there is a large and dark forest, void of normal life. All the trees have no leaves, nothing grows on the ground, and the only small woodland critter that lives there is a possessed green teddy bear. A long winding road, deserted by all normal travelers, goes through it. At the moment, the only vehicle on the road is a squat moving truck with "Eval Inc." printed in bold, red and black letters on the side. The truck moves steadily along the road, and eventually pulls up in front of a large and ominous mansion. The Gothic mansion is a generically huge and dark, with towers and spikes and gargoyles placed on every free buttress and pointed roof.
Two rotting corpses slide out of the truck and get a package from the back, a long and rectangular box covered in a black shroud. They shamble over to the door, carrying it between them. They knock on the imposing wooden double doors and wait a couple of minutes. Eventually, a half-dressed man only in his underclothes opens the door, rubbing sleep from his eyes. He has an almost literal mane of thick and unkempt black hair on his head, and more of it on his chest.
"What'd'ya want?"
"Good afternoon guv'. We're 'ere deliverin' dis 'ere package from some bloodsuckin' bloke called Rot."
"Oh. Give it here, then."
The hairy man reaches forward and grabs the covered coffin, easily lifting it on his own, and goes to put it down inside the mansion. He returns with payment for the zombies, muttering something about lousy vampires not paying for themselves. The zombies tip their hats and return to their truck, which immediately vanishes completely.
Lightning flashes and thunder booms, barely heard over a cacophony of harsh and evil laughter. Then the scene ends.Last edited by VampireRot; 2011-06-11 at 08:49 AM.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXIV
Slaver Plawt
Spoiler
Ezra is walloped by a walloped by a water elemental and then hit by Jasper's bullet. He drops the fey, staggers back, and then is suddenly being drowned by the elemental, coughing and flailing. I think he's out of the fight, and will drown in 4 minutes, if the elemental remains in his lungs.
Whisper, satisfied that Ezra is getting his just punishment, even if it's by water instead of fire, returns to searching for Grass-bringer.
Since most of the fight (except Cessie and Keld) is over, I'll go ahead and reveal what is found in the wagons:
SpoilerWagon 1: Purna's wagon, with Grass-bringer.Fled!
Wagon 2: Supplies
Wagon 3: Slaves (one human male, one elf girl, that Harnel has seen)ON FIRE!!!
Wagon 4: Slaves ('Up' and the troll woman)
Wagon 5: Slaves (6 slaves)
Wagon 6: Supplies
Wagon 7:Slaves (6 slaves)Empty, slaves rescued and at the forest's edge
Wagon 8: Empty slave wagon (formerly Whisper's)
All of the slaves are gagged and manacled, hands behind back. The keys will be found on Ezra. The woman called Up in wagon 4 is half dead from starvation and dehydration. The two slaves in wagon 3 have suffered a bit of smoke inhalation, but should recover quickly once put in the open air and ungagged. The rest are in good health.
Back at the forest's edge, Richard remains encased in glass, one goblin man is unconscious after losing his arm, one human man is unconscious from near asphyxiation, and the other three rescued slaves are healthy.
Whisper is distraught that Grass-bringer is gone, nearly catatonic with grief.
Since I'm travelling this weekend, please treat the slaves as npcs and Ezra as godmoddable (or dead, if Cessie chooses to drown him) and carry on without me.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Pure granite actually, though the elemental is actually very dense despite it's form and it's need to move. But if Keld is just running up to the mage and attempts to punch through her armor, he might find himself punched back by elementals granite fist with bone and armor shattering strength. It's most likely larger then him and also pretty determined to protect it's summoner, slamming him with a surprising speed as he attempts to get close.
Cessie won't drown the centaur however, the elemental will retreat from his lungs eventually and choose to just keep the centaur in place. I can't imagine him going anywhere any time soon after nearly having drowned though.

"Oooh. Does it require you burning your clothes off as an unwanted consequence or something?" Ilpholin says, licking her lips. If so, she totally wants to stay!
Of course, he's all diseased now, so even if he does solve the problem, she'd never trust him enough to curtain with him.

[Monster Infested Forest]
Near the border of the forest and the countryside surrounding Inside, five NPCs have gone missing in the past week. The border itself is exceedingly quiet; no animals have been seen for about a month, and not even insects could be heard.
If someone was to research this bizarre incident, they would find that this has been going on every forty two years. If there are any monster hunters out there, this may very well peak their interest.
[Skies]
"Thanks," Lwssa says, adding in the salt and finishing up the stew. She shouts out to the rest of the Cryxian's crew: "I made some buffalo and vegetable stew, if anyone wants any!"
She turns to Nicholas. "How much do you want?" she asks, grabbing a bowl and starting to pour some stew in. "And where exactly shall we practice sparring after dinner?"Last edited by LOTRfan; 2011-06-11 at 02:16 PM.

"That makes sense. Here you go," she says, offering him the bowl. Since no one else has replied yet, she'll make herself a bowl and sit down to eat.

Er... Not quite. Sol says, blushing a little despite the seriousness of the situation. Nonetheless, he does have to take off his shirt, so he does so. If I do start burning though, um, you might want to run. I can be kinda.... Well, really dangerous. With that, he takes his knife and stabs himself in the arm, directly on the vein. Gritting his teeth and trying to keep himself from screaming, Sol uses his magic to try and draw the parasites in his arm out of his bloodstream through the wound, while at the same time keeping his bleeding to a minimum.

"Tis good to hear ye're so eager." Cornelia smiles and gets pulled close. The gunslinger tries to give him another lengthy kiss, holding his arms. "See you then, love." With that, she'll start to button up her shirt and make her way out of the forest. Toward NO.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXIV

Jasper allows Legion to put her arm around him, sighing heavily. Alright. Let me try and remember one that doesn't end with anyone dying... He closes his eyes and thinks for a bit. Oh, yeah. Think you'll like this one. My unit was in Texas at the time, our commander had been killed a week ago and we were pretty much lost. Best we could tell, we were somewhere in the hill country, because, well, there were hills and trees. Now, after about two days of trekking, we realized we were being followed by something. Something old, old and terrible. Jasper says, completely hamming it up. We started finding claw marks on the trees wherever we made camp, heard things prowling around the tents at night, and the more we freaked out, the worse it got. After a week of getting nowhere, the forest wasn't even the same, it was pitch dark the whole day long, as though the sun had gone out, the trees seemed to move when we weren't lookin, and by what we saw of the wildlife, they were just waiting to eat us. Legion might notice Jasper shudders slightly as he continues with his tale. In retrospect, it's a great story, but actually living it was hell. It was about then I started to notice that our worst fears were coming true. If one of us worried about wolves, we'd be running from a pack of them by the end of the day, if one of us had nightmares, whatever it was would come true. The entire place was one big nightmare, and we saw more scary **** than I like to think about. None of us died, but Private Stetson lost his leg at the knee, and most of us were near breaking down from sheer terror. Eventually, I figured something out. That night, around the campfire, I told the most ridiculous horror story I could think of, a paraphrasing of The Jabberwocky, to be exact. And the next day, what do you think came whiffling through the tulgey wood?Last edited by ThirdEmperor; 2011-06-11 at 06:56 PM.

Legion's eyes get wide, her expression very much interested. The Lady has no interruptions, she merely watches Jasper, obviously fascinated.
Then she gives a little smirk. "I guess none've you had a vorpal sword on hand, huh?"

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXIV

Nope, but we had bullets, and that's all we needed. It showed up just as we thought we had found a way out, a stream running through the forest. Out of nowhere it clawed it's way out of the undergrowth, the most ridiculous, pathetic monster in the history of the West. You had to be there. It was so fat it could barely walk on it's spindly legs, and had a neck twice as long as it's body, so it practically had to slither along the ground. Jasper recounts, smirking slightly. For all of ten seconds we were stunned. Then we opened fire and sunk more rounds into that thing then we had used in the entire war, until we were one hundred percent sure it couldn't possibly be living. It might have been smart enough to use our fears against us, but it couldn't tell a scary story from a bad one to save it's life. Considering what it had turned into, probably didn't understand anatomy all that well either.
