| Toriko Smiled as he cornered his prize. The large beast looked delicious, and angry. The beast lunged for Toriko’s throat sailing past him claws forward, Toriko had not enough calories to weather the attack and dodged the beast catching hold of it’s tail. Quickly the beast turned, teeth filling Toriko’s field of vision. Teeth clenched is skull as the tiger attempted to end this fight but, the flesh it had gotten hold of was torn from Toriko’s face as he threw the creature. The tiger landed on its side with a thud and Toriko held his blood covered face. As the tiger rose to it’s feet, Toriko glared at the beast showing his intentions, the Tiger once again, leaped at his opponent, only to be snared by the first of Troiko's deadly techniques, the fork. The tiger barely had time to lament it's fate before the knife came down, breaking the beasts spine. quickly done |

| Tael had finished removing the bolt from his arm and had a nice new burn in it's place, on top of the burn he had gained a few grimy clothes from the bandits he had encountered, he would later be told that this land was governed by a group called the "Brotherhood", it seemed like the name for a cult. Tael had stripped the bandits of anything they had, which wasn't much, and left them to burn in the small fire arranged in a lude position. Perhaps Tael wished to mask their deaths as a crime of passion but, it was more likely he took pleasure in the bewildred expression he imagined whomever found them would wear. The flees from the male's bear pelt, bit into Tael's skin, the untanned hide attracted flies as well but, it was better than being stark naked. Tael rounded a bend in the path, nearing a small market town. It was becoming clear to Tael that this world would not have a way home, if they didn't have space travel, they certainly wouldn't have the higher technology like the federation but, on tallon IV he had seen the ruins of the Chozo, a race far more advanced than the federation retreat to seclusion and simplicity. He held out hope. ________________ Tael had thought he would have smelled bad, and repelled the citizens of the world he was on but, as he entered the town he saw chamberpots emptied from windows falling into the alleyways below. It was like something out of a fairy tail, a startlingly realistic fairy tale. He worked his way through town, among the stalls filled with rotting meat and surprisingly fresh fauna from the planet. He heard the name "Thracs" several times, learning this to be the planet's name. "Hey new arrival, where'd you get that pelt?" a slim man said smiling through broken teeth. "I had a friend who wore one like that." Tael looked at the man, fingering the heat warped dagger he still carried. "Whoa there friend, if i was going to kill you i'd have chosen a better place." He said throwing Tael a fresh apple. "If i did that, i'd get arrested." Tael caught the apple keeping his silence, however the shady character would not be keeping his. "HEY THIEF, THIEF, GUARDS!" the man yelled as every eye in the marketplace turned to Tael and the piece of fruit he unwittingly carried. Tael glared at the man, who was in stitches by now, before running past him quickly followed by armored soldiers. |

| I wouldn't object to some sidequests to get people (and COs) familiar with the scope of their actions, maybe some events to galvanize player response. |

| It was a clear day, the "sky" or whatever it was that served as the edge of Thrac's atmosphere was of endless blue with temporary fractures in space showing themselves only to promptly disappear. It was in this sky that flew a lone falcon, a small bird compared to many on Thracs, but agile and with good eyesight. It's screech echoed throughout the forest causing the three travelers to look up to the sky, the parasites in their brain wriggling as they relayed a silent conversation between them. They watched the skies, seeing nothing as the falcon returned but, it was their ears that told of it's coming. The large creature stepped out from between the trees, wingless , the giant lizard was three times that of a normal human, with a hardened skull reminiscent of a beetle and a long tail with a spiked end. It was not the large flying dragon like the hunters had expected nor as large but as they began the battle, they would learn to appreciate this moment of disappointment. And so, the battle began! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YA395jKjYb8 Sutekh thrust forward his book, chanting great magical hymns from it to strengthen his power, declaring an invocation he shouted a spell but, instead of the great and powerful elemental he had attempted to channel, a pure missile of magical essense shot forth and struck the dragon. The ancient giant was dumbfounded, Thracs had refused his influence. Sutekh was having more luck than Nahuatl who was able to channel none of his power, the two elders seethed with frustration at their predicament as they dodged a strike from the beast's tail. Sutekh's attack had not been totally ineffective however, and had caused a gash in the monster's facial armor. Eknara lept into action, her companions communicating their distress, her spells had also not appeared but, she had taken the time to craft her weapon and she would not rest until she had the supplies needed to craft her armor as well. The cloth armor she currently wore was light in weight but blocked little in the way of injury. Quickly she dodged each strike from it's tail, admittedly it was easier than before, screaming as she charged forward the ground exploded around her from the monster's missed strikes. Nearing the beast she spun in mid-air crashing her sword onto the injured head of the creature. Liquid oozed from the wound as the creature started to go limp, Eknara backed away slowly as the creature's entire being began to groan. There was a loud explosion, three heads snapped to the tail of the creature, as each segment exploded in a gruesome chain reaction until finally in a series of violent concussions, the main body burst, spreading it's skin, muscles and entrails over a large area of forest which, included the hapless travelers. OUTCOME: Hunt Successful. Rhabeopax slain. Eknara Orkaro: 5EXP, Crippled Sutekh: 5EXP, Crippled Nahuatl Negendra: 5EXP, Crippled |

| It was a cold day, raindrops slid slowly off his visor as he approached the underside of the large stone bridge, it was primitive, quarried rock and mortar from what Tael guessed missing the visor technology that was all but standard in his home. The sounds of merchant carts rattled along the top of the bridge, only just barely visible through the we fog. "it almost reminds me of tallon IV" he reminisced, it had been one of his most pleasurable assignments. He felt the pillar with his armor, gauging it's strength, to his surprise, the stone shifted out of place. Quickly, Tael attempted to pull it back into place only for it to drag another stone with it. The pillar began to lean and stones clinked off of Tael's helmet as a large section of bridge came down. Tael dove for cover as basketball sized stones splashed into the water. Looking up Tael found the bridge to still stand, albeit with a large hole in it and the sounds of panicked horses and clanking of heavy armor. Shortly two guards would slide down the hill on either side of him. "Stop right there, criminal scum!" one said, stepping forward with his sword drawn. "You've violated the law!" "I really should get a speaker installed in this thing." Tael said, tyring to motion them to stay away. "Then pay with your blood!" The guard said, swiping at Tael, producing great sparks in contrast to the foggy day. Thinking quickly Tael ran into the nearby river, the guards giving chase until the water came up to their waists, and Tael disappeared underneath the current. Outcome: Recon Successful Tael Avril: 5 EXP, Wounded |

| "good-bye little guy" Tael said as he waded into the water on the southern tip of the island, if he was going to find civilization, he was going to have to swim. He shivered as the water rose up to his waist, cold but not freezing, he took one final look back at the lantern toting creature as it stared at him from the bank and swam to deeper waters. ______ On the other bank, the shivering GFMC struggled to light a fire, his cold hands losing grip consistently on the piece of wood he was building friction on. "Please don't tell me that wood on this planet doesn't burn." Although no sooner had he said it than a thin trail of smoke rose from the kindling. As Tael's fire burned it had attracted the attention of a couple of bandits, after the laughter from seeing the man was stark naked they began discussing amongst themselves how best to package the individual, fetch since in their mind, he could easily fetch a high price in the arena or perhaps as a manservant to some rich aristocracy. "So, let's have your arms, don't want you making a break for it and getting yourself damaged." The slobbering male said "well at least their human" Tael thought "Better tie his legs too." His female counterpart said, as she itched herself. "And I am familiar with the language." "Stupid hag, we'd have to walk slower then, best to tie it around his neck." "not too bright though." "Just tie him up and shut your toothless maw." She said tossing her compatriot a length of roughly twisted rope. As the lumbering man reached out to Tael, whom they had not yet bothered to address directly, he soon felt his arm break as he touched Tael, enraged the man tried to draw his large sword from his back but, before he could Tael delivered several sharp jabs to his would be slavers' throat. The man clasped his neck and backed away coughing and sputtering as his female companion shoot a quick bolt from her crossbow at Tael. The bolt tore through Tael's arm, muscles contracting in a fruitless defense of the penetration. Yelling Tael charged the woman who was attempting to wind the crossbow for another shot. As he neared, she fumbled for a dagger in a band across her chest, Tael delivered a quick blow to her jaw before grabbing and burying the dagger into her chest. "You Bastard, I dun care about the money, you have to die." The brute said, having regained his breath and drawn his weapon. Tael held his bleeding arm, and bracing his foot against the dieing woman, pulled the dagger out to confront his other enemy. "Sorry about that, don't mean to pull out so soon." The brute let out an earsplitting yell as he charged forward, sword held high overhead, Tael through his body forward attacking the brute's center of gravity, then used the charge to throw him overhead with the brute yelling in confusion and fear and Tael yelling out in pain as the movement widened the wound from the crossbow bolt. With a thud the brute struck the ground and Tael fell to his knees, blood streaming from the gaping wound. the brute made no movements, he had been impaled on his own sword. Tael stumbled over to his fire, placing the dagger's blade into it. "Oh lucky me, field surgery." |

| Tael took stock of his surroundings, from what he could tell he had lost everything in the blast eve, curiously, his armor and survival provisions. Luckily, Aether had breathable air though as he took a closer look around he realized, this was not Aether. The dimensional storms that brought down his transport were nowhere to be seen and the environment was very different thankfully, again with breathable air. "I've been dropped into worse hell holes." he smiled shaking his head. "At least the beach is nice." His survival training first called for setting up a distress beacon within his armor. "heh, well that's not gonna work,you know what, you'd think they'd train us to survive without the armor." Mentally he skipped the other fifteen steps involving diagnostics and system repair. Following the next step he grabbed a stick and started to survey the environment, walking along the beach see'ing if any of his equipment had followed him through the dimensional rift, that had to be it, he had heard stories about things such as that but most of them involved naked women and copious amounts of alcohol. Tael threw himself to the ground as a light approached from the surrounding forest, he readied his stick, hoping whatever it was, was small enough to be intimidated by it. A small green reptile shuffled out of the bushes carrying a lantern. "Hello" Tael said in federation common as he got up. "would you mind guiding me to your village?" The creatures yellow eyes stared blankly at him as it twisted the knife in it's hand. If only the creature would speak so Tael could anticipate a similar language but it did nothing but, stare at him, holding it's knife in front of it in what, to Tael, seemed a defensive posture. Tael couldn't afford to fight so ill equipped so he simply waived goodbye, and started walking along the beach again. It was several miles before Tael realised the creature was still behind him, shuffling with the knife still held in front of him. "he's like a lost puppy." Tael thought as he shrugged the realization that he had a stalker off. |

| Tael was attached to a GFMC Reconnaissance mission to a planet call Aether, shortly after arrival he was separated from the unit when they were overrun by a horde of alien creatures. Shortly thereafter, he encountered a dark humanoid creature that wielded weaponry consistent with an experimental element, during the fight, Tael was caught in an interdimensional blast when the creature destroyed a nearby portal machine. Upon arrival to THRACS, he wandered for some time hunting creatures for food and clothing and having brief encounters with the 'Ead' Unters, brotherhood and rarely, the faust. While these brief scrapes did much to shape Tael's perception of the world, they weren't enough for him to make a name for himself. Eventually, He made his way to the Order and due to his military training and familiarity with technology considered to be somewhat advanced, he was admitted into their society, he has since spent much of his time trying to re-create armor and weapon technology from his dimension and field testing it's effectiveness.
