Dragon!
Who: ANYONE!
Broadcast: If you want
Action: The forest outside of town!
When: Ambiguously around the 23rd
→ Before the mob
[Tek has run out of time. he's pushed his body and spirit to its limit, and his hold over himself finally slips. he's quiet about fleeing the city, but it's a different story once he reaches the wilderness. the sudden release of energy as he loses his human shape hits the atmosphere in a silent wave. the countryside shivers as an aura of death and malaise touches every living thing, even if only in the very back of the mind. and for those more sensitive to such things... it's clear that something has happened. something is here.
for those wandering the forest that day, they may step into an area of the forest gone still with a graveyard hush. and if they linger there, they might happen upon a monstrous beast.
he's keeping to the tallest, deepest copses of trees... because it's hard to keep hidden when you're the height of a three-story building. either creeping and looming between the trunks, gratefully wading into streams, or curling up to rest in roomy clearings, he's there.
and he's hideous. though not actually rotting, the creature is at least designed to look cadavorous. he doesn't appear overtly aggressive... but something looking like that must be far from harmless.]
→ After the mob
[and he can only stay hidden for so long. a band of foresters eventually happen upon him, and a battle inevitably ensues. it isn't long before the remnants of the group run howling into town-- a dragon is less than a mile away, and it has already struck down several of their number!
at once, the bravest warriors take up arms, ring the alarms, and begin to set out in bands to take down the monster!
anyone striking out to find the dragon after the battles have begun is definitely in for a fight, because he is now wounded and angry. and, since he's so large and caught in such a small area of land before he hits the barrier, he won't be hard to find--especially whenever he breaks the canopy of trees and takes flight, to try and find another area of forest not already full of attackers. if you watch the sky and follow him long enough, you're sure to find him.]
(ooc: open to absolutely anyone! just take a look at the ooc post first, and then jump in! also open for any peripherally-related threads--like reacting to the creepy wave of feeling that goes through the town, gathering friends, etc.--if you feel like it!
if you have any other questions, dump 'em in the ooc post!
otherwise, DRAGONFIGHT DRAGONFIGHT!!)

no subject
Might I ask what this dragon has done to warrant death? I do not see it rampaging the city.
no subject
Not yet, perhaps, but how long until it runs out of things to kill in the forest? How long do you think it will take for the dragon to be forced to attack the city for food?
no subject
[ she doesn't get angry about a lot of things, but this... wow, this is the angriest she's been in a long time. ]
no subject
Are you mad?
no subject
You have not tried, so how do you know what its response will be?
no subject
But if you want to go try to talk to it that's fine. I'm sure the men who came running from the woods earlier screaming about how the dragon killed a whole group of their friends can give you directions.
no subject
What if those men did what you intended to do? What if they charged in without reason, under unfounded assumptions, and the beast was defending itself? [ do you know? she doesn't, but... ] I will speak with it, and I will return when I am done. I will hope by the time I return you will have come to your senses.
[ FAREWELL MADAM. ]

[Even as she's cursing this woman for being so difficult, Jove is reaching for her with one hand to stop her as she reaches into a pouch at her side, drawing out a glass flask filled with a green liquid.]
This is a healing potion. At least take it if you're really going to do this.
no subject
I do not need it. [ and she's not saying that to act tough. she legitimately does not need it. ] Keep it for yourself, for your friends... should I be wrong.
no subject
[She doesn't think she is, though. She tucks the potion away again, nodding at Lior.]
Dareth shiral. I wish you luck.
