The tavern was uncommonly low on guests that night. A man clad in black leathers strode in through the door, briefly tapping one of the regulars before striding up to the bar. He slipped a pair of coins onto the counter.
The bartender greedily stuffed the two coins into his pocket, then removed his hand holding the small note hidden between the two coins.
“Oh, Lucius Kalrein, He’ll be a difficult one. Has all his treasure stashed in old warehouses guarded by thugs. Can’t tell you much more than that, I’m afraid.” Whispered the bartender
“This is a little more violent than mere thievery” Said the black clad man
“I see. there are rumors he will be at the piers tonight watching one of his old rivals get drowned. He will probably have a few of his thugs with him, but it’s the best chance you’ll get. And please stoop paying me with my customer’s money. It feels like bad policy.”
The man bowed his head slightly then seemed to vanish into the shadows.
Lucuius watched as his old rival Cercio was being held underwater. His arms were desperately flailing at his attackers with no effect. Lucuius sneered, “The wait has been long, but oh, the reward is definitely sweet”
As he finished the arms slowly went limp, and his thugs proceeded to tie lead weights to Cercio’s wrists, and then drop him into the sea.
Lucuius flashed a smile at his second in command, but he was standing stock still, a look of horror on his face. When Lucuius looked closer he could just make out the silhouette of a hooded figure behind his companion. He was about to yell for help, but the look on his friend’s face stopped him from doing so. “Follow me slowly.”
The words seemed to come out of the darkness, and were slightly unhuman. He walked forward slowly, trying to look as casual as possible. “what do you want” he started to ask as they left the pier, but before he could finish his throat was slit and his friend was laying unconscious in the sand.
Autloycus entered the brotherhood’s headquarters with a body draped over his shoulders. “I completed your mission, and I brought a gift for your necromancers. Is that enough proof of my skill?” he said as he dropped the body onto the rough floor

(ha now that I've advertised my self you have to let me join)

When youve fixed that then youre fine and approved =)

Armor: Light Leather

I'll PM you my back-story tomorrow, but the above is my character. Other then inventory, am I missing anything else?
 
Okay =) now...
Edit: Well... yóure missing your name =S When that is done, we can start =)
 
UPDATE(!) Step One: Its story time!

Ten years after the landing on Inkita, the four established factions are no longer at peace. They are fighting over small disputes like a houndred meters of terretory, or a hot spring.

The tropical jungles are now battlefields, and the inhabitants are war mounts and combat trained beasts. The tides of blood are turning.

Currently, the brotherhood is fighting with the wavebenders in a desperate attempt to claim a enchanted wellspring.

Now... in this time of war, the old tools are sharpened, and the Mercenaries and Assassins, surface once more.


Update Part Two: Posting Missions.
Missions posted on bulletin board Now... GO!!!
 
I would like to claim Codename: Umbrella.
 
Okay. Addin claims.
Edit: ehh... Mil? Youre a member of the Sunwolf Tribe, you cant do other organisations missions. There are no missions for your organisation today, so i reccomend you either try to get some of the other players go with you on the LFG: Sunken Temple mission, or go explore and train. (Exploring is the best way to find treasures and perhaps discover secret stuff!)

Damn. OK then, I'll go explore some caves, it'll pay better than the Sunken Temple.
 
It'll pay better than the Sunken Temple.

Sure about that? ;)
But well, if you want too =) Just tell me where you want to explore caves:
North Jungle: Arcane ruins and crystallic caves here.
East Jungle: Old swampmen ruins, granite caves and semi-volcanic caves here.
Shore Cliffs: Rumored to be a secret city somewhere around.
Howling Peaks: The howling peaks are full of abandoned mines, jewels, unexplored caves and treasure.

Choose one =)

Also, im pretty sure ive invited all that has signed up for the nes into the Mercenaries and Assassins social group. Joining is well... a good idea, since it is where you post ideas for features and discuss M&A Stuff.
 
Screw it, story now.

Spoiler Codename:Umbrella, Prologue :
Derine didn't like the look of his contact. He was...wrong. Had the air of wrongness about him. Like he did a lot of wrong things a lot of the time. But, this thing paid well, to some degree. And beggars can't be choosers.

"So, let me get this straight," said Derine at last, "all you want me to do is get these water-shield rings from this...Mister You?"

"Yyeess" said the contact, eyes darting around the room. "Iitt wwiillll bbee hheellppffuull iinn oouurr wwaarr aaggaaiinnsstt tthhee wwaavveebbeennddeerrss" He spat on the floor at the name. The dwarf didn't really like the way he talked either, like he was forcing every word out and relishing it as it left his mouth.

"Right. Well, I'd be glad to take this job. But understand I have no wish to be a footsoldier in your war. My only loyalty is to the dwarves."

"Ii uunnddeerrssttaanndd ppeerrffeeccttllyy"



Spoiler Codename:Umberella, Part I :
The journey to the mysterious Mr. U was uneventful. Derine knew that people were watching them, especially at night. He mostly kept to himself, wrapped in his over-cloak.

It was just the way he wanted it. He didn't want to talk to the fellow members of this expedition. Half-demons and undead. It's not that he didn't like them, he just felt uncomfortable in their company. And they didn't want to talk to him back.

They finally got to the spot where they were to meet Mr U, far away from any civilisation, and his house, for "safety reasons". He was a tall man, once upon a time, but he was now crooked and hunched over, as if he was constantly bowing. He said, for no particular reason, that he was once a Wavebender, but he turned his back on them, for what reason he would not say. Now he spends his days making rings that repelled their spells in the paranoid belief that they will one day find him and come after him. With the news the Brotherhood was in a war, he decided they needed all the hope they could get. For a price.

The leader of the expedition, a lithe half-demon, handed over the money promised, while Derine surveyed from the carts. He helped, as much as he could, in the loading of the water-shield rings, but other than that, merely watched.

Just before they left, the heavens opened and rain came pouring down. Instead of hitting the cart, the rain seemed to hit a hidden barrier and trailed off down the side, as if there were a dome covering the carts.

Mr U merely laughed. "That is but one of their powers, my friends. Have a safe journey!"

****​

The group made their way along the worn path. A wall of trees covered each side, tall and wide and ancient. There were things hiding in that forest, Derine thought, intelligent things. Bandits? Possibly.

A day into their travel, they came across a large boulder in the road. Footprints around the ditch that the rolling stone had made suggested that it had been moved there by no accident. With some degree of ignorance on the part of his companions, Derine was called to look at the boulder. Dwarves knew rocks, even farmer dwarves. One precise punch was all it took to smash the rock to pieces, for this was weak compared to the rocks at home.

But they had tarried just long enough for the ambush to begin. An arrow struck the hooded driver. Luckily, it was only a zombie, and so could be risen again with a simple spell. Humans appeared in the trees, clad in green and brown. They approached the carts, weapons drawn.

Derine looked at the leader of his expedition, who was calculating what was going on. As soon as he shouted 'attack!’ Derine grabbed both his axes and leaped into the fray.


To be continued... (By Dragonson)
 
Derine felt the thrill of battle. Parrying, Evading, Jumping. Striking back with a blow to the leg. Decapitation.

It was a heated battle. Derine counted the enemy to about six men. One of them taller than the others, wearing a blue cloak.

The enemy were beaten. Two of them tried to run away. The man in the cloak were trapped, and he yelled "I Yield! I Yield! I can be ransomed!". Derine took him as a prisoner and bound him to the cart. Anybody yelling "I can be ransomed!" is probably worth something.

Not long after they were back in Nokrath II.
