You will all start out at lvl 1 (if this was a real game that is)
Along way you might be asked to make difficult choices that will effect the out come of the game (That is later to be revealed.)
Special abilities maybe grant to each character as the game goes on. (We can chatter about this later)
Each of your characters will be assigned a familiars in the game but that only come after beating the first quest. Your familiar will be same level as you. They won't always be with you unless you are on a quest and summon them.

[center Let start at the beginning a little back story. Alaric had it rough from the starting. Being gay in a family like his was unacceptable. It made daily life a living hell. The only chance he had to escape was when he was a lone in his room. There was a computer game he loved to play. Whenever he was there he was known as Anri a Hareagon of some sorts. There he could truly be himself free to do what ever he please as long as it abided by the rules that is. Here he felt as if he made many friends and even love interests even if they were only NPCs. The game filled the empty void and loneliness he always seem to feel in his daily life. Chatting with friends like he always did before his father came yelling.
His father abuse seemed endless. His father would always come down to scream and yell at him for his life choices. Alaric was a very intelligent young man but he was still too young to be on his own with only apart time job.
He didn't have very many friends in the real world. That didn't bother him, he always had something to come home to that he looked forward to. When his slender fingers logged into the computer and open the game Virtual Dreams a smile appear across his face. In the game he was know as Anri he was a purple haired rabbit folk some might stay. Harengon is what his character actually is. Anri smiled softly he had only been playing this game for a couple of weeks. The hardest part was making a character. Deciding what to name him, what kind of species he should be what kind of familiar he wanted. Grant he wouldn't get one until he complete the first task. In order to do so need to join a party. It as best to be in a group of four or more. The only difficult apart about that was finding a group to play with. Since he was newer to the game it seemed challenging, also not having any friends in the real world didn't help either. Most people on here were friendly.
Alaric felt his phone ringing in his pocket. He looked down to see it was work calling him. He had the day off but let out a heavy sigh before answering it. His eyes shifted back to the computer screen as he save and logged out. It seemed he as going to have to go to work today. [#bebff9 "I am never going to get any where in this game"] he mumbled to himself. As he quickly got dressed for work. He walked up the creaky stair case and grabbed his car key. His father was stand by the door waiting for him. Of course his dad had to tell him something mean before he left. He always did. If only his mother was still around. She had unfortunately died a coupe years ago. His father remarried now he was blessed with two horrible step brothers.
~ After getting home from an 11 hour shift. He was forced to do chores then finally set free to do as he pleased. He always kept his room locked but when he found the door had been broken open his heart sank. Luckily whoever got in didn't find his old laptop. After cleaning up his room which felt like hour. He finally laid down in bed. His mind wonder back to that game he was just starting. Four towns to choose from where should he start?
Drifting into a peaceful slumber Anri open his eyes to find a large pair of arms around him. He nearly jumped out of his skin only to realize these arms didn't belong to anyone of his family. These arms were much too strong and firm. His heart was racing surely this was all a pleasant dream right. As his eyes came across a friendly looking face. That face was very familiar. It then donned on him that his was his favorite character in the game Remus Hemming. Anri had read all about this wild character. Why was this happen he had barely just started the game and read that meeting Remus would mean you would have to be level 7 or 8.
This had to be a dream ? Certainly this wasn't real just a simply desire. Anri sighed softly as he closed his pale green eyes. He then awoke in a whole new place. This time he was in what looked like the lobby? Wait this was still the game? He was thinking so much about it that had to be reason why he dreamed about Remus, why he was thinking of the loading lobby. Surely he would be awoken from his slumber soon and this dream would simply come to an end. Anri closed his eyes when he open them again he found himself falling. His slender body his the ground with a light thud. He slowly sat up and looked around where was he now? Why did that actually hurt a little? Was this not really a dream? All these thoughts and question there was no way to explain them.

Anri pale green eyes danced around the forest in a state of panic. It seemed head end up near the town called Dream Land. He was on the out skirts of it. Dream Land was surround by a thick lush forest. Anri heart began to racing in his chest. He then heard the sound of voice ? His ears twitch the sound was getting closer. Anri had yet to notice that he was shift between rabbit and man. Finally the sound of a rustling bush got louder. Anri heart about flew out of his chest as he waited to see what was coming. What should he do? It was too late to hide, he had no weapons. He could run if he need to but to where he had no idea where he was what lurked about. If he remember right Dream Land was still an era behind his own. There was minor technology here, so people still used swords and what not. [#bebff9 "W-Who goes there...."] he said in shaky voice. His pale green eyes didn't leave the moving bush.

[i [+pink Now with this said in play ~ Tell me how you guys end up here? Most of this will be dream related! Eventually you will all be in the same group traveling together though the towns.

So half slice of life and half fantasy? Or is it mostly revolved around the game and full fantasy? Also do you want me to post first or Blakely?

Sorry if I wasn't very clear on that. We will be stuck in the game until we beat but we do start out in the real modern world.
Doesn't matter who post first.
If you guy wants too. I am not really good at making D&D character sheets. I mean I did fill out a thing under my actually character a little just a simply ES one.

Well feel free to use our DnD account! ^^
We should get the feature that allows us to share our stuff with friends so you can have all the extra stuff on DnD beyond on yours. (We don't mind sharing but you probably hate seeing 50 characters on there from us haha)
Oh okay! Thanks for letting me know that helps!

Are all races from DnD available?
And would I be allowed to make a LV 1 DnD character sheet for this? Or should I just write up a more simple ES bio? I know we won't be using all the DnD stuff yet. So maybe just writing an idea? I may take inspiration from DnD for his class/abilites.
Would Paladin be a class in this world? Like a holy knight fighter?

Oh okay I'll go ahead and make a DnD sheet for this! And than I'll run over the abilites backstory etc of that sheet with you to make sure it's all okay in this world ^^
Oh and fun fact about DnD real fast! Did you know every round of combat in DnD represents a real life time of 6 seconds?
So like Monks can attack 3 times in one turn (If they use up a Ki point.) That's 3 attacks in 6 seconds basically

[center Remus's dreams always seem to end the same. Waking up right before he made contact to those rose colored lips. Oh how he desired to know who's those rose lips belong too. Rubbing his eyes, he laid there silently in his cozy little bed. Thoughts ran through his mind. What was today going to bring? Just as he was about to get out of the bed. He noticed something odd and out of place. There were a few violet color hairs that he had no idea where they came from?
[pic https://i.imgur.com/t6A3aWX.jpg]
Then it dawned on him. [+orang "Wait...."] he said to himself as he looked at the strands of hair. From the scent it smelt like rabbit hair. What caught him off guard was the fact that he had been dreaming about the purple haired rabbit for what seemed like days.
Remus sighed softly as he looked around his small room. It was practically empty. Remus's didn't have much. There wasn't much he could other than work or fight. Despite being a talent fight he was also intelligent. The one down side he had was it was difficult for him to make friends and be friendly. Except for in his dreams.
To most the town folk, he was viewed a loner but he was a hard worker. Doing small things around the village didn't seem to cut it. It meant one thing. One thing only, he was going to have to travel to Beast Beneath village. In oder to get there he was going to have to cross through Dream Land and it's forest. The forest was going to be hard part dodging monsters another people. Remus sighed softly as he left his small bedroom. He looked at the room down the small hall way. He sighed softly as he walked way. That room was now vacant. His mind quickly went back to what he was doing.
Packing a small burlap bag with a few supplies. A small loaf of old bread he carefully wrapped in a worn silk cloth. A small flask that held water. After shoving those items into his bag. He slung the burlap bag over his shoulder. He picked up the worn sword that sat by the door. He clipped it to his belt and head outside.
He looked back at his run down home. He sighed softly as he started his journey to through Dream Land's forest. His orange colored eyes danced around his surroundings. So far things seem to be going well.

[center [Pompiere Isaac had just gotten home with the game held tightly in his hands. His father looked towards him and offered a small and warm smile glad to see his son happy. He had been against the game at first, but Isaac had shown really good promise. He had earned that money himself though he was sure that it had been hard for him.
[+green "Good Job. I knew you could do it. Why don't you come eat and then you can go on up and play. Not too long though. We have an appointment tomorrow that you can't miss. You promised."]
The boy's eyes lit up. He wasn't expecting to get any time on the game. He sat down with his father to enjoy a meal. He didn't say much, but his father knew he understood. If anyone in this world understood Isaac it was his father. The boy couldn't speak. He hadn't been able to speak for a very long time. He had been going to therapy, but so far there was no change. He worried about his son, but if there was a way he could branch out and make friends... Well then maybe this game wouldn't be so bad for him.
As they finished eating, they both did the dishes and then he sent his son up the stairs so that he could play his new game. He wished him luck as well.
Isaac stepped into his room and looked for his computer. He found it on his bed where he always left it before he headed off anywhere. He did small chores and things for the neighbors. People who understood his condition and never made fun of him for it. People felt sorry for him, and he hated it. The only one that still treated him like he could still speak was his father. The boy looked at his father as his closest friend. His only friend.
He put the game in and watched as it downloaded. It would take some time, but that was alright. Even if he only got his character created, he would be happy. He began to work on his character once the game loaded up for him.
He had chosen a Kenku making him look mostly human with white feathers. He loved how his character turned out. Once he got started and he was sure everything was saved he shut the game down and left his room to get ready for bed. Maybe he would be able to find his voice again tomorrow. Who knew? It was hard though. He just didn't want to talk to anyone. It felt too difficult.
Once he had let his father know he loved him and that he was going to bed he laid down. He was excited about the game and all the possibilities that were open to him. Slowly he drifted off into what he thought was a dream.

He was falling. No... Not one of those dreams. He had a hard time waking up from these. He normally did with soundless screams. This time he wasn't waking though, and he realized something very odd... He had wings. He tried his hardest to spread them, but he couldn't. They just wouldn't flap or anything. Oh god. He couldn't fly. What good were these wings for?
He closed his eyes. He was going to die, wasn't he? These dreams could kill you, couldn't they? He felt himself hit the ground. It took the breath from his lungs. He laid there struggling for a moment with the pain. Wait... Pain? No... He slowly sat up and looked around. His wings were sore and... He looked at himself. Oh. He was the character he had created in that game earlier before he had gone to bed. What was this? What was going on? He was starting to panic a little bit. He didn't know what he should do. He got to his feet and pinched himself hard on the arm.
Ouch... He couldn't voice it but damn that hurt. He had chosen a Kenku because they couldn't speak. He felt some sort of... Kinship with them. Slowly he began moving towards the lights of what he assumed might be a town. He didn't know how he was going to really communicate with anyone though. He was also a bit afraid. He didn't have any weapons or anything.

Isaac stepped into his room and looked for his computer. He found it on his bed where he always left it before he headed off anywhere. He did small chores and things for the neighbors. People who understood his condition and never made fun of him for it. People felt sorry for him, and he hated it. The only one that still treated him like he could still speak was his father. The boy looked at his father as his closest friend. His only friend.
He put the game in and watched as it downloaded. It would take some time, but that was alright. Even if he only got his character created, he would be happy. He began to work on his character once the game loaded up for him.
He had chosen a Kenku making him look mostly human with white feathers. He loved how his character turned out. Once he got started and he was sure everything was saved he shut the game down and left his room to get ready for bed. Maybe he would be able to find his voice again tomorrow. Who knew? It was hard though. He just didn't want to talk to anyone. It felt too difficult.
Once he had let his father know he loved him and that he was going to bed he laid down. He was excited about the game and all the possibilities that were open to him. Slowly he drifted off into what he thought was a dream.

He was falling. No... Not one of those dreams. He had a hard time waking up from these. He normally did with soundless screams. This time he wasn't waking though, and he realized something very odd... He had wings. He tried his hardest to spread them, but he couldn't. They just wouldn't flap or anything. Oh god. He couldn't fly. What good were these wings for?
He closed his eyes. He was going to die, wasn't he? These dreams could kill you, couldn't they? He felt himself hit the ground. It took the breath from his lungs. He laid there struggling for a moment with the pain. Wait... Pain? No... He slowly sat up and looked around. His wings were sore and... He looked at himself. Oh. He was the character he had created in that game earlier before he had gone to bed. What was this? What was going on? He was starting to panic a little bit. He didn't know what he should do. He got to his feet and pinched himself hard on the arm.
Ouch... He couldn't voice it but damn that hurt. He had chosen a Kenku because they couldn't speak. He felt some sort of... Kinship with them. Slowly he began moving towards the lights of what he assumed might be a town. He didn't know how he was going to really communicate with anyone though. He was also a bit afraid. He didn't have any weapons or anything.

Haruka was a very shy girl. She didn't have very many friends. Even the friends she had weren't really her friends. They were simply using her to get through school. Haruka excelled in math and science that was why she had "friends" they simply wanted her around to help them get a passing grade. Deep down she knew that.
The Game
Hearing her friends chatter about this new game all the time was kind of annoying. Pressured into buying a copy, decided to give it a try anyway. Open the brightly color case. She put the disk into her computer.
She opened the game a smiled softly as she decided on what character to make. She finally decided on something pure and innocent. She decided to make an angel of course she didn't know how to fly yet. It said something about not be able to until she level two. She was okay with that she was still happy with how her character had come out.
She then heard her phone go off. It was one of her friend complain about getting a D in math. In her mind [i Maybe if you spent less time looking at boys you would understand."] she simply wrote back. Sorry. Her friend then bullied her into doing her home for her. Sighing as she closed out of the game she started to her friends math homework.
She yawned and rest her head down on the math book.
Falling
When she open her pale lavender eye she realized she was on the ground staring straight at a large forest. Her heart was racing in her chest. She slowly say up and looked around. Where was she ? Why did that? She notice a small scratch on her leg was starting to beed with crimson.
Her eyes widen as she looked around. It was then she heard voices in the forest. She didn't know if she should run or stay. The game did say it was best to be in a group. Dream Land was mostly a peaceful place but there were a still a chance of running into enemies especially near the forest. Weaponless the slender brunette stood up. She seen a stick on the ground a grabbed. Holding it tightly in her hand.

Yuuko was a resident of Dream Land. She often helped lost travelers find there way through Dream Land's forest. Lately it seemed that no visitors had come. It was a rather dry spell.
Sighing softly the bright purple taxbai sat down on a large rock. [#ca18ec "How boring!"] she shouted to the sky. As if it could answer her. She sighed softly as she closed her bright yellow eyes.
She drifted off into a light slummer but her ears were still alert listing to the sounds around her. It was then she hear it. The sound of multi people and beings all around the forest. She shot up and smiled brightly as she darted off to the nearest sound. Since she was still near the entrance to the forest she when to Kenku first.
[#ca18ec "Hello!"] she said cheerfully to the Kenku who seemed to have fallen to the ground with a loud thud. [#ca18ec "Are you alright? From the sounds of thinks you taken a rather large fall haven't you?"] she said with a soft but worried tone.
She didn't know a whole lot about Kenku other that they couldn't actually speak. Well they could if you knew all the right sign and listen to them. Having such large ears that she was softly made fun for. She was happy about her heart that helped her listen words of the heart some might say.
Sighing softly the bright purple taxbai sat down on a large rock. [#ca18ec "How boring!"] she shouted to the sky. As if it could answer her. She sighed softly as she closed her bright yellow eyes.

Shifting from rabbit to man it finally settle on something in-between. After seeing the man emerge from the bush made his heart race. It was Remus. A small smile appear across his face along with a faint blush. This was the character he had read so much about. Even dream about. He quickly looked way [#bebff9 "Um..H-Hi"] he said nervously.
He hope that the tall man would answer him not think of him as an enemy. He quickly offer another smile before look down at the ground. [#bebff9 "Remus is it? I-I am... Anri"] he said as he bowed his head a little nervously fidgeting.

Remus paused in place. It was like love at first site. This was the one he had been dreaming so fondly of. His orange colored eye scan the slender figure up and down. He shook his head and rain his slender fingers through his hair. [+Orange '"Who is asking?"] he said dryly as his eye brows narrowed.
His orange colored eyes seem liked a dancing flame burning so brightly. Remus wasn't normally one to start a fight. He might of seem mean and dangerous but on the inside he had a heart of gold. Seeing that boy meant no harm and seemed rather lost he let out a heavy sigh. [+Orange "Look if you are looking for the town I will take you there."] he said with a soft smile.
Seeing that boy had agreed he lead the way to Dream Land. Carefully and skillfully he lead the boy through forest. It seemed that everything was going according to play. No foe so far to cross his path. He was kind of surprised the purple colored tabaxi didn't head this way. She was normally hoping for lost people she loved helping people through the forest.

He looked back to the Tabaxi realizing that this whole time he hadn't tried to communicate with her.
Ah that's right Kenku had a really interesting ability. Mimicry. He could mimic words that he had heard before. She had greeted him. He could use mimicry for that.
[+skyblue "Hello."]
Oh, it worked. Of course, he didn't know how to say anything else other than that. He sighed softly feeling a bit defeated. He nodded when she asked about the fall that he had taken. He was hurting a bit, but he was sure he would end up being just fine.
He looked around. He didn't know where he was. He really couldn't ask either. He looked back at her and tilted his head slightly. He gestured towards the town and then looked back at her.

Seeing that the young stranger honestly meant no harm. He decided to travel with him to Dream Land. He was happy that they reach the town before sunset. It seems that he would at least have a warm bed to stay in tonight. He looked at the young rabbit that stood beside him.
It was clear he was different. He knew the minute he saw him this was the boy he been dreaming about. He couldn't just come out and say this. He could smell something on the boy scent that confused him. Sorrow was the first thing that came to mind along with loneliness. The boy seem happy? Shaking his head he noticed the large eared purple haired cat emerge from the forest with someone with her.
[+orange "Hey. Yuu where have you been all day?"] he said dryly look down at the small tabaxi he easily toward over. Remus was rather tall compared to most. He crossed his arms firmly over his chest. Sure she helped one person through the forest but wasn't it her job to help everyone. Surely Anri could of used it. Shaking his head he then looked back to Anri would seemed to be amazed with the town.

For the first time in a long time he Anri smiled softly. He was happy just to be near Remus. Surely this had to be where his dream was going to abruptly end right?
He was happy when ever he was happy something bad always seemed to follow. His smile soon faded they had made it to the town. He really wanted to speak more with Remus but the words wouldn't come out. They stay suck behind his teeth. His lavender color eyes dance around the sight of the town. Wow. It really was breath taking.
The light that came from the town really did give you a dreamy vive. The scent of foods lingered in the air along with a strong scent of flowers.
In the center of the town stood a sakura blossom tree. It was always in bloom it had been that way for over 100years according to the legend. The tree it's self was very tall it looked almost like a pink fluffy cloud with branches. Anri eyes seemed to sparkle with amazement.

Suddenly two people came over. He felt off around so many people. He decided to avoid the other two. If they didn't speak to him then he wouldn't say anything to them. Well not like he could anyway.
He looked up at the town. It was a rather beautiful place, wasn't it?]

[center [b He wanted to say "But Rex was fine." He felt weird saying so much at once. Well.. Was it really that much? An extra sentence really and yet.. It felt like running a marathon. No.. Running a marathon would be easier. Why... Why was this so hard?]]
[center [b She had shown off her feathers to him. He gave her a rather awkward smile and nodded. "Why can't I just say.. It'll come to you? Say something Rex.. You look like you're just leering at her!" She had asked where to go. He remembered the beginning area pretty well. He pointed a direction. Toward the city of dreams. He would have said "Follow me" but that.. Proved to be too hard as well so he simply began to lead. His head hung low as to avoid any awkward eye contact.]]
[center [b She began to get caught and snagged on every little thing. She had commented on wishing her wings could be put away. What was this..? "Oh.. This is small talk right? A person complains about something annoying and the other person.. Well how does the other person respond? Do they say sorry? Wouldn't that seem short? Fake? Well offering a serious apology for it seems silly for such a small thing. It's not like I can even say yeah I know what you mean cause.. No wings. So what can I say to this? Come on Rex... It's just small talk everyone does it every.. freaking... Day." He turned around and with all the courage in his heart he parted his lips softly.]]

Things were a little too peaceful. How boring? Then he seen her another angel. Falling helplessly from the sky. It seems the poor thing didn't know how to fly. How pathetic he thought to himself. A smile crept across his face.
Let's go have some fun with that pathetic sap. It was easy to find her what caught him off guard was seeing her with someone else? Already? Shaking his head it didn't matter. They were both weak and would be easy to cut down.
[+Magenta "You can make them disappear.... I will just cut them off for you..."] he said dryly as a beautiful sword appeared in blinding ray of light.
The tall sender figure stood top a tall tree branch looking down upon the two. The clothing the angel wore was certainly different. It was almost as if he was dress as a jester. The sweet smile that appear across his face was malicious. There was nothing funny about him in fact he loved bring pain rather than happiness. Perhaps a demon would of been a better choice.
The angel quickly landed before them and smiled maliciously. [+Magenta "Such a pity you aren't really wroth my efforts..."] he said dryly.

[center [b It was than a man had shout a ray of light approaching them. Rex had grabbed her hand and backed up a bit. It was a moment before.. He found himself blushing and pulling his hand away slowly.]]
[center [b "Worth my efforts..? A pity? Was this guy from a real life anime? He had to be an NPC a person would never talk like that. Not unless they were big into the whole immersion thing right? Rex didn't remember this encounter at the beginning either. So was it really an NPC? Maybe it's random? It hadn't mattered, Rex may have been level one but but he knew what he was doing. And luckily his class didn't need armor or weapons. Rex was excited to get some experience in. A slight grin came to his face as he began to dash on his foe.]]
[center [b Taking an action he came with an unarmed strike punching at the angel like creature. Due to his Monk's agility and his own reflexes he was able to throw a second kick into the same attack action with surprising speeds.]]

I know we aren't doing it exactly like DnD/Video game with the combat right.
More so role play heavy? (Not that DnD isn't roleplay heavy but I mean without the stats xD) Does he still have the abilities that would be on his sheet? Or no?

[#ca18ec "Well If it isn't Remus"] she mutter before crossing her arms firmly over her chest. She smiled soon faded when she learn that she missed someone in the forest. Sure it was her job to help lost travelers. Sometimes it was hard to come across them all. Her golden colored eyes then landed on Anri.
Yuuko smiled softly as she pull the Kenku with her to the small group of people. [#ca18ec "Look I am sorry if I caused your any trouble Remus..."] she said. [#ca18ec "I was doing my job! "] she said as she pointed at the Kenku.
Yuuko golden eyed then went back to the Kenku. [#ca18ec "I am sorry.... what is your name?"] she said as she looked at the Kenku. She was sure he wasn't going to answer her. She felt bad not asking this sooner.

His eyes landed on the Kenku. [+Orange "Well I hate to leave but since your here... I will leave Anri with you."] he said with a soft smile. He almost forgotten what his main reason for coming this way for. He needed to find work, he couldn't do that if he had Anri. [+Orange "Well since your here Yuuko I will leave Anri with you..

[+orchid "Wait..."] he said as he looked towards Remus. When Remus turned to him. [+Orchid "I just wanted to thank you..."] he said. The words that were stuck behind his pale rose colored lips. He really wanted to ask Remus to stay longer.
Anri thanked Remus as bowed his head once more. He felt the man hand on his head as he ruffled his violet colored hair. He blushed softly hoping no one notice. This feeling, he had not felt it in so long it was hard not to blush.

[h3 [center [+Magenta Attack ]]]
Akari was caught off guard by the mage. He honestly didn't expect much from the two of them. An angel that couldn't fly, a what seems to be a low level human.
[+Magenta "Why don't you do me a favor just die"] he said he swung his sword once more at them. He was surprise with how brave they were especially for being new around here.
Sure enough he would win. There was no chance of these newbie defeating him. In game talk he was already level 4. They were level 1 there was no way they could beat him.
[h3 [#86a7ee Frighten]]
Minakami was caught off guard. She was frighten when she seen the angel sword appear in his hand. Why would such a pretty and light being be so horrible. Maybe a demon would of been a better fit for that man.
It was then she watch Rex willingly jump into battle. Throwing punch and fist like a mad man. She slowly and nervously back up until she was against a large tree. That was then she found a fallen tree branch. She picked up the branch holding it close to her.
As if she be able to defend her self with a fallen brach. Something felt different about this branch. Her lavender eyes danced around the scene as she though of what to do next. The only way the would be able to beat this man if they worked together.

She hear Akari laughing as he rose in the sky. His wings fluttering effortlessly. [+Magenta "So you can't fly or even cast spell... What a wast of flesh"] he muttered as he looked down at them.
Rex may have gotten his sword but this wasn't over yet. His wings shift and suddenly a ton of feathers flew at them. The feather flying at them were sharpe like razors. Surely an attack like this would wipe them out if not he do it again. He do it as long as he need to quiet out these newbies. Even though rex had his sword it wouldn't do him much good if he was in the sky.
Minakami was shaking what was she going to do. Then it spoke to her, the stick she was held too tightly to was no ordinary stick. In her mind a card that almost looked like a tarot card appear. It showed the word shield. The voice told her say the word shield.
[#86a7ee "Shield"] she said before her and Rex appeared a lovely pink shield. The shield blocked all the razor like feathers with ease. Of course this made Akari even more angry.
The Seraphim snarl as he landed on the ground. [+Magenta "What the hell is this?"] he said in a taunting harsh tone. How did such a low level player summon a magic shield like that? Akari then notice the stick in the young woman hands. There was no way that would be the cause of it.
Akari flew back into the sky quickly. No matter she was nothing special. Her magic was surely going to run out sooner rather than later. Akari got ready to attack again once more with his razor like feathers. This time he was going to miss.
