training in the mountains

[narkeekran]

Amongst the steam from the hot springs stood a figure naked from the waist up with robes hanging from the waist. The figure very slender but with highly defined muscles, swayed their arms and body in a uniformed manner as if fighting in slowmotion an invisible foe. She almost looked like a shadow her skin a purple hue so dark it was almost black, her hair in complete contrast it being a pure white.

She began to move faster and faster until beads of sweat formed on her skin, partly because of the steaming heat of the springs, she slowed down again until she came to a complete stop. Stood there silent with out moving for wat seemed an entirnity; she suddenly lashed out at the tree behind her doing a spin and striking it so that wood and bark splintered of in every direction, moving her hand out of the fist sized dent she lowered it to her side and unhooked the robes around her waist and let them fall to the ground in a heap, leaving her with no clothes on at all, delicatly she stepped out of the heap and made her way to one of the nearby springs and slid in under the water to wash off the sweat an dirt that had accumilated on her skin and hair. hours pasted before she stepped out after thouroghly cleaning herself and swiming in the pool. She walked over to a large boulder and sat to dry off in the mountain sunrise the rays gently landing on her naked body, With her hair still slightly damp but her skin dry she gathered her robes and put them on enjoying the feel of the soft cloth resting on her skin.
after gathering the rest of her belongings she set off on the path that leads to the nearest town using her quarterstaff as a walking stick...

Teagan looked up all she saw was a shadowy figure stading there, moments later the figure started to fight what seemed a invisibal target, Teagan watched amazed, but it was not for the combat but that she reconized the person.

Climbing up the cliff was harder than she thought she had left her comrads behind, faster and faster her arms pumped untill the ached, but relentlasly she climbed.

Hourse later of constant clibming she reached the top to find that the shadowy figure was gone, but how could this be she thought to her self, getting back her breath she stod up straight, not a bead of sweat or dirt was over her body, grabing her belonings she ran down the path were she could see the footsteps of the shadowdancer as she would say...

[narkeekran]

The path was very uneven, overgrown and difficult to traverse. The path became so over grown it was impossible to get through so the drow had to resort to shadow jumping could be risky though she thought to herselfi'll have to avoid trouble damn that'll suck oh well no cracking skulls today she thought to herself as she let herself fall backwards when her body should have struck the floor it fell through it stirring up dust from the floor making it impossible to see what had happened when the cold mountain breeze had blown the dust cloud away there was no trace that anyone had been there..

[Ryan]

Running as fast as she could to catch up Teagan was stoped by a group of Orcs, "yar giv us ya muny or me and my boiz will smash ur hed in", staring up at them Teagan got out her morning star and got ready to fight, the orc to the right lunged for her with his sword but in doing so getting his boot stuck under a tree root, falling over the orc yells in pain as his leg snaps into a unatural position, Teagan scaning around to see who will attack first sees a vine strong enough to hold the weight of a human, jumping twards it she grabs hold and starts pulling her self up...

[narkeekran]

a while after appearing on the otherside of her shadow jump the drow seemed to wander for hours without coming to any sort of end to this over grown winding path. or maybe there is no end she thought or maybe i'm lost bugger hmmmm well this sucks she came to a huge felled tree sitting with her back against it she sat an started to think what to do next...

[Ryan]

As she climbed she was finding it hard, deciding that it wouldt be easyer to drop some stuff soshe could climb faster, tackeing off her rucsackshe let it drop, and to the amazment of the barbarians below things hurt when they hit your face.

As she carried on climbing she noticed the same drow in the undergrowth, reaching for another vine so she could swing over to the drow (like the famous George Of the Jungal)but doing so slipped and landed on a very unfortunat badger.

[narkeekran]

sitting with her back to the tree the drow got out an unlit torch an rammed it in the ground before lighting a tinder twig and setting the torch alight.
she heard a loud crash and screams of pain startled she jumped up and span round in one movement. to her shock she saw another drow, that she recognised instantly, laying on top of a badger, an orc screaming in pain, clutching his leg on the floor while another was holding his face an the others brandashing rusty shoddy looking weapons threatingly at the drow.
she grabed the torch out of the ground jumped onto the felled tree, launched the torch and herself into the orcs...

[Ryan]

Getting up she saw the orcs walked twards her snarling and she was in no mood to be snarled at, muttering a few words under her breath she carried on makeing her way through the undergrowth to the other orcs, to the orc she nuttered the words to he was sudenly shocked to find himself walking heavily into a tree only to wake up a six hours later.

[narkeekran]

flying towards the orcs the drow drew her quarter staff and extended her leg as she span round striking one of the orcs square in the face with her heel landing she saw the torch hit and set alight another orc whilst one of the others was banging his head on a near by tree the rest of the orcs startled by the appearance of another drow quickly drew arms against her ...

[Ryan]

Seeing a crazy drow fly past your head would make anyone jump away but unfortunatly teagan jumped into a load of stinging nettles.

[narkeekran]

closing her eyes and concentrating for a moment and then suddenly flying into a flurry of blows hit every orc around her atleast twice before stopping and before they had a chance to react half of them dropped unconsience or dead the remaining orcs, only a couple by now, still atood there when one shouted in a harsh sinister voice "dark skinned elf you die!!" before lungeing towards her, she dodged and the orc's lunge went a foot or soo past her before she struck him on the back of the head knocking him out the only one left now was a female half orc with as much clothing on as the drow, next to nothing, and brandishing two evil looking cruved axes.
"drow you dare fight me and while unarmed and armoured you are a fool and fools die!" the orc taunted
the drow stood there eyeing up her opponent before bursting out laughing "you call that a taunt" she squeezed out between the laughter angered the orc flew towards the drow spinning before dropping to the floor and takign out the drows legs swinging down with her axes the drow grasped them and grappled the orc they were locked neither one could break free...

[Ryan]

Getting up teagan looked over to were she could hear i fight, all she could see was a load of Orcs laying there in pain and a female Orc and the other drow, walking over calmly she got out a very big heavy and clumpy hair brush, when she got to were the two were grapelingwalking up behind the Orc she lifted up the hair brush, when all of a sudden the badger she landed on jumped in a huge rage and hurteled twards Teagan.

Befor Teagan could do anything she had a rabid badger mauling her from the back "WARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" is call she could say before her face was planted in the mud.

[narkeekran]

Having an angry orc on top of u with two axe blades at your throat is a bad situation but when the person who is supposed to be helping you get's mauled by a badger she angered earlier is something else
"IDIOT" the drow screamed as the clerics face planted into the mud pushing with all her might she pushed up on the orc until she could get her feet on the orcs chest then she kicked as hard as she could the orc flew back into a tree which had a conveniently placed branch as sharp as a spear that stuck through the orc killing her walking over to the cleric the drow kicked the badger away an then pulled the cleric out of the mud saying "thanks for the help teagan!"

[Ryan]

"o shut your face" Teagan huffed as she got up, "so how are you".

[narkeekran]

"meh the usual u??" was the drow's response as she sat down next to teagan "so Lil' sis What have you been up to while I've been away all these years" she asked after teagan had answered
