Pinkamena Dianne Pie 465 July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 Lux had stepped outside to see where the scream she had heard from earlier came from. Much to her surprise, people were scurrying around and running away from bandits that are now pillaging the city. She spotted a couple of children being cornered by one of these bandits. She started walking towards them, hoping a mysterious hooded figure would scare the bandit away. "Mhey ymoo!" She tried to yell at him, but she forgot to swallow the mouth full of food before she did so. 'Great start...' Lux thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When she reached him, she braced herself and tackled him as hard as she could going full sprint at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranger22 179 July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 Rounding the corner a scene of rampant fear and chaos filled my eyes. The citizens of the town either hid or fled trying to get away from the fighting that has ensued. This is what happens when your town has no militia, bandits are given free reign and your life sucks because of it. Grunting in response to the incompetence I continued to survey the fighting a little longer to determine the best course of action I should take. Two locals seemed to be fighting off the invaders rather well, upon further thought I began doubting they were locals at all. My eyes widened as I noticed the small pattern stitching on the cloak of one of the fighters. I took a deep breath before stepped out of the corner and began making my move. Judging from how well the cloaked one was handling herself I presumed she was the one my scouts mentioned earlier. No matter how skilled she was I wasn't taking any risk of her getting hurt without answering to me first. I began running towards the both of them, I slammed my feet into the ground stopping my momentum before I arched back and swung my hammer at the bandit.

But, now she had to deal with the bandit herself now. She then suddenly got pushed off the bandit and nearly gets hit by his axe. Lux's eyes widened as a loud thump on the ground came from behind her and a large solid object went flying at the bandit.

He asks, nudging a person nearby, somewhat still intoxicated. "They're quite lively, I'll tell you what."

Of course, he was at the far end of this basic technique's range, and any further would require him to expend valuable energy to cast a more powerful spell. In case he was misjudging his opponent, it was wiser and safer to test limits and reactions before slinging spells willy-nilly. Especially considering the differences in weapons, armour and talents.
