 [attr="class","scare"]EASY MODE! [attr="class","scare1"] [attr="class","scare2"] [attr="class","scare3"] [attr="class","scarewords"]Fuck was it colder than tits and balls out here! Rex really hated being out on the first level of the dungeons, though most of his adventures here had been nothing but giant fucking failures. It wasn't expecting more than such from his band of misfits, but he figured tossing them into a real shit show might get them a little closer as a team.
So it was here that he sat himself on a wide tree stump, cigarette clenched between jagged teeth before he waved a gloved hand forward to bring up his game menus and scan over his fellow guildmates, sending them all an invite to his suicide training, 'Alright shit eaters, we're doing a floor run...Come on, I'm freezing my ass off out here, so hurry it up! No questions!' He sent it, taking a cold breath around his smoke before reaching to take a drag from it and let it rest between a couple of fingers.
Sharp and dangerous gaze settled forward into the icy snow covered forest before him, yetis and giant wolves...This place was really fucked. He hoped if the second level ever did get unlocked, it was going to be a nicer fucking place, like maybe a beach with a bunch of half-naked amazon ladies trying to kill them. Now that would be a real way to die! The soldier grinned at the thought as he waited...

Drakka didn't mind the floor run, it was a genuinely good idea and she was actually pretty ok with the idea of exploring with some people she reasonably trusted. Her problem was with the fact there was little to no warning and one more thing, it was fucking freezing! Her fur was already highly crusted over with frost, and her scales were forming mini icicles of their own. This information helped with her warmth, often she had found she was too warm before, now she was eating those words. Again she was forced to halt and shake frantically, sending sleet in all directions only for it to be rendered moot in a few seconds as a gust of wind threw a snowdrift over her body. She shivered enough to send her teeth together in a painful chattering. She was still kinda happy to see Rex, and would chamber over, forcing herself to not shiver and walk with as much dignity as she could muster. " I pity the guys without fur." She sneered, sitting next to Rex and completely regretting it as the cold crept up her back...the others better hurry up! kingrex akeno raynauld

"Hm, they're awfully close."[break] Drakka and Rex's threads had inched closer in the time between Raynauld recieving the message and now. Rex had better not have been doing anything weird - he still had Akeno as his fated one, after all! Musings on the lives of his allies aside, Raynauld was finally growing used to the threads he saw every time a party was formed.[break] They also served as good indicators of how far he had to go in this stygian wasteland. This was worse than that snowstorm they had last year - little surprise there, he supposed. Akeno better have brought shoes; the complaining they'd sit through between her and Rex about "my feet are cold!" weren't worth this. For his part, he tried to stifle his own complaining, lest Rex or Drakka snap off at him.[break] He made it fairly quickly to the two of them - No, they were just sitting there. Rex had a stupid grin on his face, as per usual. Raynauld said nothing, merely looking down at the two. A stoic knight in the cold... it would have been poetic if said knight didn't have a habit of shooting off about his weird fake deity.[break] And he made three.[break] kingrex drakka akeno

"AHHHHH!" The Cannibal screamed her way towards the group, sprinting and sloshing her way through the snow towards the others. "MY FEET ARE COOOOOOOLD!" Barefoot as usual, she'd made the mistake of forgetting to put on her boots, as she dashed towards them.
"COLD COLD COLD COLD COLD!!!!" Flailing her arms in the air, the thought suddenly hit her. Collapsing herself forward, she did a forward roll, swinging her bag over her head so it landed in front of her. Reaching in, she quickly extracted the boots, which already had the socks in them, pulling them onto her feet.
"UGH!" With a sigh of relief, and agony, she let herself collapse back into the snow. Silly, the girl had remembered to put on her gloves, but not her boots. In a moment, she pulled herself up, looking around at the others around her. "Oh, hey guys! I thought..." She turned around, staring at the mess of footprints in the snow she'd left in her maddening sprint. Then, she turned her gaze back towards the others, giving a jealous glance to the wolf girl. "Never mind... Why's it so cold?! Shitty developers, not cool at all!!" Truly, the classiest girl around.

[attr="class","scare"]EAT SHIT AND DIE! [attr="class","scare1"] [attr="class","scare2"] [attr="class","scare3"] [attr="class","scarewords"]Rex slithered his sharp blues onto the girl outside her wolf form, grinning pointed teeth her way when she joked, “Oh yeah? You're the one shivering like a damn wuss!” He teased leaning over to nudge her side, knowing damn well it would frustrate her before he leaned away and spotted Ray coming, he'd give the guy a lazy wave.
“I bet that armor is chilling your nuts, huh?” Rex toyed before he stood from the log and stretched his arms, hot yawn slipping from his mouth as he gave a lazy look to either of them, “Where the hell is that crazy bi-” He was cut off was Akeno came running towards them like the usual nutcase she was. A usual toothy frown took Carlo's features as he watched her...
“...At least you remembered to bring them...Te'h...” He fussed with a sigh before reaching to ruffle the hair under his ponytail, “Guess you bitching about the cold is better than hearing you talk to your damn hands...” Again he'd sigh with disappointment, turning to face away from them and take a few steps forward.
“Alright...We're going to head north east, there's a lake there that's frozen over...obviously.” Rex explained as he tilted a stern look over his shoulder, “When I was out drinking the other night, I heard a few guys tell a story about a monster there, big...Scary...And needs killing.” Wow...what a briefing that was! Without saying anything else he'd stalk himself forward through the heavy and layered snow, expecting them to follow...

Drakka rolled her eyes at Rex, taking the nudged at her side before roughly butting Rex's hand away, " Damn you. Stop touching me, you're stealing my warmth." Not that there was any heat to steal, she was a icicle beast at the moment. As Raynauld walked in, Drakka grimaced at the sight of his armor. Dear God that must have been freezing...still...she couldn't help but to laugh at Rex's quip, turning her head away to hide this moment of amusement. " Ah-hem, hey, don't talk to much today, got it?" She chirped, whipping her tail to spray off a freezing bit of snow. Akeno was honestly no surprise, Drakka's ears simply twitched at her antics before she stood up, glad for an excuse to not be touching the ground as much as possible. She shook herself out, groaning inwardly as sleet dripped down her form. The groan became more audible at Rex's poor excuse for a briefing, " Nice one boss, where's the details?" She heckled, following after him with a rude chuckle. kingrex akeno raynauld

"I doubt he knows much on the saga of this beast," Raynauld piped up, taking the point position behind Rex, "Doubtless this unhallowed place shifts its rogue's gallery far more often than it should."[break] Sometimes, it was easy for him to forget this world was a video game. Outside of his day-to-day routine of fighting whatever monsters the quest descriptions told him to, and outside of whatever adventures he was dragged on (or he dragged one of the devils on), the only real difference at the end of the day was that he carried a weapon and wore armor... That, and no one called him what they did here.[break] Their quips aside, Raynauld seemed less bothered by the cold than Drakka and Rex's jokes would have implied. Was he merely used to it, or was he just putting on a cold front?[break] "Besides, it's no different from what we normally do. Find the big bad monster and beat it until we've obtained some form of momentary release from its suffering."[break] ... Okay, this was less than normal, even for him. Wasn't Raynauld the kind of person who shouted about love and justice instead of this?[break] kingrex drakka akeno

Shivering, with her arms wrapped around herself, The Cannibal practiced little bunny hops. This was not only to get herself hyped up for the future conflicts that they would be facing as a group, but to try and warm herself up. Seldom equipped to sprint down the street unharmed, The Cannibal was not wearing proper equipment to be standing in the cold at all. Needless to say, she was made very uncomfortable by the frigid weather.
"Okay, okay! Well, I don't want to stay here any longer than I've got to!" She continued hopping, pointing a hand in the air, hopping in circles. "Which way is ye ol' evil beasty!? We must slay it, and make jackets from it's pelt!" Her jaw suddenly dropped, the idea of jackets coming to her mind.
"Oh!" Using her bunny hop technique, she made her way over to her armored companion. Seemingly oblivious, or just careless, to whatever was making him act differently from usual, she tugged at his arm. "You got a coat for me or something, oh so great and powerful armored mister?!"

[attr="class","scare"]EAT SHIT AND DIE! [attr="class","scare1"] [attr="class","scare2"] [attr="class","scare3"] [attr="class","scarewords"]“You'll get enough details when we get there kid, don't bitch.” Rex warned with a look over his shoulder before settling it forward as they walked through the snowy terrain. The guy didn't have any extra layers on, those tatted arms looked so painful without any sleeves on! Then the Commando turned his attention on Ray who'd followed in right behind him.
He'd give the man a sort of annoyed and confused expression, sharp teeth slithering out as usual with the look, “You talking shit? You better not be...” The soldier threatened, not entirely understand just what the fuck he'd just said in that...ancient dialect of his. Why did some people feel so compelled to fill their role in this game?
Though the guy finally started to talk some layman's terms, “I'm impressed Ray, I figured you'd try to tell me we should pray it to death or somethin'.” Rex toyed with a grin before looking forward again and shifting his direction just slightly past some incoming trees. So far the walk was eerily empty and quiet.
Rex did sneak a look towards Akeno when she got all touchy with Ray. The two of them being as ridiculously awkward as possible made them a rather impressive match for one another. He'd keep quiet though, just giving it a smirk before tilting his gaze back on his compass, making sure they didn't deviate from the proper direction.
It wouldn't be long and they'd be at the lake...

Drakka sneered at Rex, smiling afterward in her wolfish way before following at at quick and shivering pace. " Ugh, yeah, yeah." Again, she paused momentarily and shook, letting out an irritated snarl before it faded away into a more content rumble as snow didn't immediately settle on her as soon as she was dry. She joined Rex in his little smile at Raynauld and Akeno. She knew absolutely nothing about romantic stuff or anything to do with boys or girl, but the two were both ultra dramatic, who was to say it wasn't a match? Still, a childish giggle broke through her for one second before she smothered it. While Rex took care of direction, she was praying he knew what he was doing, Drakka resolved to keep an eye and ear out. Long, thumping footsteps started, but way in the distance, so Drakka didn't care...no, she was more concerned with light, fleet, sounds that came dangerously close before fading away. " Um...we may have company soon." She murmured, loud enough for the whole group to hear before she started drifting around the group, trying to catch the enemies before they launched an attack. kingrex akeno raynauld

Akeno got a single, one-word response to her query before Raynauld broke off from her.[break] "No."[break] Swift, blunt and to the point - almost too close to the point. She'd hit too close to home, asking for clothes, both because it reminded him of events prior to Broken War and because it reminded him that he hadn't actually tried his hand at tailoring in a while; being stuck here was murder for finding good material and inspiration, and that was without considering the fact that everything wanted to kill him.[break] He didn't even bother responding to Rex and Drakka, though maybe he was just too cold to consider dealing with pettier giggles from the peanut gallery to the side. At least the latter's senses could be counted on to sense something from somewhere in this frigid waste, all the better to keep him occupied.[break] He drew his flail and shield, even for a just in case kind of scenario. Better to have something to hold onto, if nothing else.[break] kingrex akeno drakka

Akeno did not know the first thing about what was and was not romantic. All she was aware of was the fact that she was asking for warmth in a frozen wasteland. All the while, the blunt response was much to her dismay, having expected at least a little softer of a verbal reply. This was amplified by the fact that she expected kindness the most from this guildmate in particular, having much more strained tensions between the other two in terms of respect.
With her bunny hop halted, The Cannibal, with head tilted in confusion, brought her lips to one side. With an expression of whole incertitude, she was honestly uncertain of why exactly this sort of thing happened. She never really experienced emotional shifts like that from her simple mindset.
"You're supposed to be the nice one." She pouted, seeing the others begin to walk ahead of her, since she had paused her movement temporarily. "Grumpy, grumpy, grumpy. No fun." She crossed her arms childishly, following along in the back of the group. With her boots sloshing through the snow, she turned her displeased gaze to her left, not acknowledging the others, still shivering in the cold weather.
A few moments later, a pebble would be fired from the back of the group. The projectile landed dangerously close to the armored one's foot. Upon looking back, other members would see Akeno, innocent as could be, hands behind her back, an obvious sign that she was definitely not hiding anything! Nothing at all hidden behind her back! No pebble firing mechanism, oh of course not! What even is that? A slingshot? Psh, who uses slingshots in a game with guns! Um... Nobody, of course!

[attr="class","scare"]EAT SHIT AND DIE! [attr="class","scare1"] [attr="class","scare2"] [attr="class","scare3"] [attr="class","scarewords"]The soldier was quick to reach for his rifle when Drakka made mention of enemies nearby. The last time he'd dismissed the girl's senses it had costed him dearly, he wasn't about to make that mistake twice. So whatever short lived banter between Ray and Akeno was quickly brushed off for the more serious topic of staying alive.
They were now on the edge of the frozen lake, and it was still entirely to quiet and empty for his taste. Drakka was sniffing around and pacing like a nervous animal before a storm, which didn't ease his tensions either. Rex held his gun in one hand, finger close to the trigger as his other hand waved towards the lake, “Stay off the fucking ice, yeah? Probably a death trap if shit gets heated.” He warned.
Almost as if his wave had triggered something, the very ice he'd pointed to seconds before cracked and crunched with an unseen reason. The commando instantly took a few steps away from the lake and readied his rifle, the ice continued to snap and crack apart in a very systematic manner before it lunged forward like a living wave, diving into the snow nearest.
Quickly the snow and ice melded together and shot upwards to form some kind of...humanoid with sharp frozen digits and a maw of chilled and razor like teeth. These must have been the angry and mutated cousins to frosty the snowman...Lovely. Similar creatures would start to spawn on the edge of the lake in a similar fashion.
“Here we go! Kill 'em quick so we don't get overrun!” Carlo roared as he raised his assault rifle and blasted the first ice-man with a hail of bullets, breaking off pieces of it's body and even a limb, though it seemed to care little as it stalked forward to attack.

Drakka bristled as the ice beings appeared, or at least tried to, the sleet was still weighing her fur down too much. The icy humanoids rumbled forward, growling like some sort of machine coming to life. She shrieked past the first humanoid, narrowly dodging it's sole arm as it tried to catch her, Rex had that one. Instead, she went for one of the ones nearest to the pond, she certainly had the best chance to escape if one of those things flung her out to freeze. She didn't bother to bite the thing as she couldn't help but to assume a Snake Bite wouldn't work on something barely living, instead slicing through the ice armor with one slash of her claws, earning a furious roar as more converged on her location. They were met with nothing as she vanished from sight, feeling a growth coming on...that was strange, it didn't usually work that fast...hell, of course she was taking advantage of that! She burst under her injured one, tearing furiously at its legs till it toppled over, whereupon she seized it's head and swallowed it. It tasted like dull ice and grass. Another humanoid rushed for her head while the others continued ahead, grazing her with one of its claws and clearly trying to herd her onto the ice. Drakka lunged forward with a hiss, grasping it's thrown out arm and taking the sharp punch before she flung herself up and away from the ice, circling her prey with mouth parted slightly.

Finally. A way to forget all of this.[break] "Ave Maria!"[break] True to form as ever, Raynauld crashed headlong into the nearest gathering of snow golems, immediately drawing back to keep himself from being mobbed (as well as keep himself away from the lake). Spinning his flail, he swung the weapon into one golem's torso, staggering it, and brought his shield up to block another's strike.[break] "Yes, you soulless automatons, gaze upon the power of faith![break] Around that time, he took stock of the situation; between the two, Drakka was more likely to survive being mobbed compared to Rex, so he prioritised the latter (since Akeno had yet to stop pouting). Turning on his heel and charging at Rex's oncoming attacker, Raynauld barreled over and toppled the golem before spinning on his heel and bringing the flail down to scatter it back into its constituent parts.[break] That freed one up... so many more to go, however. And Raynauld was the only one who was any good at managing heavy groups. Inwardly, he surmised how much pain he was going to be in by the end of this...[break] kingrex akeno drakka
