You all Awaken by a sign that says "welcome to the island of no return Population 100. Your surrondings are what you didn't expect to ever see. The grass is a light blue, The sky that you can now see becaus ethe fog that was covering the ground is now disolving you now can see that you along a few others laying around on the ground they also look confused about there surroundings. As you look around even more the trees leaves are a gold and silver color. there brances and the bark are a light red color. There is also a pathway that seems like it been used often but it still look brand new. One dude who been laying on the ground being to get up his light blue eyes and his dull brown hair seem to wave in the light gust of wind. He gets up and then helps every one else up and then he says hi my name is Byron and just out of courousty are you here also becuase your freind been kidnapped too?

(Gm to player) I know this isn't a very long. But The story plot will thicken as soon as the story line progresses which will be once we all get interduction over with

Rathier was lying on the ground, listening to the darkness of his mind. It was a soothing sound. Somebody shook him. Dude, wake up...Wake up!
He jolted awake, remembering the seeming past few hours. He'd been given a note, told to go somewhere...He sees the sign...WELCOME TO THE ISLAND OF NO RETURN. POPULATION: 100. HAVE A NICE DEATH!!
He sees the guy that was shaking him. The guy introduces himself as Byron.
He says, "Yeah, I'm Rathier, a gem mage, in search of my friend. I wonder, would you help me in my small little adventure here? And just what are you anyways?"
He then takes stock of his surroundings in search of the best path to take, while checking his inventory to see if it's been tampered with in any way.

(Player to GM) Not bad, but do try to polish up the grammer a little bit, eh? I recommend using word to grammer check before you post.

You too? He quickly replies. I wonder if these other people freinds where kidnapped too? If so then maybe we all should team up and form a group to go resuce our kidnapped freinds. Watches him keep going through his pack back. Hello? are your even listing? Guess not oh well. Byron then leaves Rat and goes help the others. Byron goes and helps the others up and introduces himself as Byron. I am a wander merchent, but because of the war I been more like a hired killer..something that I wish I never agreed to do at all. I still have nightmares about the people I killed. Its like they are and will forever haunt me. The worst part is that sometimes they even come into the living world to make sure that I am forever miserable. I can still hear there crys and scream and they helplessly beg for mercy. I Usally killed the parents in front of the kids to watch the fear and the sadness in there eyes. But one child forever changed my life. Her name was jenny. It all started when I was paid to kill 3 people. heh this will be easy I figured as I walked along the forest path that lead to the peoples houses The day was a normal day it was a great day the leaves have all fallen off the trees the wind was blowing ever so nicly. I remember that day like it just happend I got there and I broke open the door. I saw Jenny and her father and mother. but I did't see the other people who where hiding waiting for me. Before I know it I was ambushed. It was a trap set up by the Empior him self. Apperently he didn't like the way I handle business. He said the way I killed my prey was just wrong. Well I whouldn't have been killing like that if I wasn't ordered to kill like that, It was the empior who pays me to kill like that. He goes one after catching his breath saying I was to be executed right on the spot. I was to be killed in the most brutest manner. At that time it was to be bleed to death and it was a crowd pleaser. But I was to be executed so place more quiet. So they took me to the middle of no where which happen to be in the middle of a mountine range and it was there that they cut me..over and over and over...untill finally they stopped they sat there and watched me bleed there where sure death was going to be slow and painful death but I wasn't bleeding fast enough for them. So they picked my bloody body up and tossed me over the ege of the cliff.. I don't rememeber anything accept waking up and she being by my side. I was shocked because she was crying with tears in her eyes I ask her whats was wrong but she whould not tell me. After many days of what seem to be a eternity to me. She finally filled in the missing pieces which include why she was so sad. It turns out that after "killing me" they returned and killed her parents. Saying that they wanted no witnesses. She was outside when it happend after she heard them yelling at each other about spliting the gold. She peek through the window and she saw her parents dead. She ran as fast as she could she just wanted to get away because she whould be next. After a little while of traving she stumbles upon my lifeless body. She says at the time she had this burning hatred towards me and when she saw my body she kicked and scream at my body blaming me for everything that happen...but after a little bit of kicking and screaming she said that she relize something maybe she could find someway to revive me and use me to her advantage. So after much research and searching of herbs she by some twist of fate brings me back to life..but I was still out cold for weeks. When I come to I didn't know who I was or in that case what I was. She told me that I was her "hired merchent" and that I was hurt real badly and that she was taking care of me. My head was hurting to bad at the time to really ask any more questions. After weeks and weeks of bed rest I was up and moving about ready for my first assiment, from her. Her first assignment she gave me was simple thing to do like get fire wood, gather herbs, ect, ect,. I did this for weeks and weeks. But everynight it was the same dream. I knock down a door and I murder people...I tell her these dreams and she always laugh and say that there are just dreams and they mean nothing. Well I belived her..untill one day I was gathering mushroom for a soup she was making. I picked the last one and I got up and there standing right next to me was a boy about 4'0 black hair blue eyes. He look at me and he asked me. "why..why..." In a ghosty voice he repeated "why did you kill me for? what did I ever do to you?" What are you talking aout little boy I don't even know you. I look down as I got up and I looked where he was and he was gone. Ok that was odd... I turned around and there he was this time he was floating in the air he reached out and touched my shoulder. I will never forget that feeling that I had when he touched my shoulder it felt like some one placed a fire on my shoulder and it got hotter and hotter untill finally it stopped burning. he then said for the sins agaist man kind that you commeted I place a curse on you. You will now and forever will be haunted by the spirtes of the people you killed. You and only you will be able to see them" I also will restore your mermory that you might remember the horrbile deeds that you did. So that you might now and forever be sad and depress because of your terriable sins agaist man kind. Then the pain on my shoulder increased to the point that it was unbearable. I guess I passed out because I woke up back on that same bed I Wake up so many weeks earlyer. But only this time I remember what happend and I was so..sad but angry too. But I decicded to make a pack with my self I decide to never kill again unless needed to kill like to defend my self or my freinds. I never told her about the ghost or the curse placed on me because I didn't want to scare her..that and she whould think that I was crazy it was also becuase she was so nice to me. Well to make a long story short we grew up and the war come and she went to the war to help heal the injured. I whould have gone and helped but..I made a pack with my self and I was going to keep it I told her I will see her again....I will see her again even if it kills me....again.... :sweatdrop When I find her i'm going to tell her about the curse and that I.... He pauses and then blushes then shakes his head and then says you know what? Lets not drill on old times, and on the past. lets focus on the further and on how we are going to resuce our freinds. He walks off and begins to walk up the path some.

(Gm to pc) You got everything accept your map which is gone.

Rathier catches up and says, "Wow, that's a long history. Let me say mine isn't as...blood filled. I have no clue who my parents are. I have only one friend, and he's the one who found me. We're both the same age, he's like my brother to me. He managed to convince his parents to raise me like they would him. But then both of them went out to gather some herbs one day because they were the village healers. They never returned. By then we were old enough to take care of ourselves and we did so. Actually, he did so. He was the village scoundrel and thief for a long time. I found a gem from his scroungings and touched it. It was a ruby. Suddenly, my hands had little flames playing around them. I didn't know why then, but every time I touched a gem, I acessed it's powers. He went off when he was older to recieve more training, and came back as an assassin. I, in the meantime, began to read up on gem mages throughout the ages so as the train myself, and became the village mage. The village GEM mage. And all was well until the other night, when he was supposed to return from his first year of teaching assassin school."
He pulls out a gray gem and casts Danger Sense on himself.

once i awake i am greeted by some loser who lost a pal but i didn't really care about what he had to say i check my goods to try to find my weapons and if so i pull out my dagger and stab him at least 5 times to make sure he is dead i then follow the path in search of food!

(OOC thanks for the good laugh I needed that after being put off by a bunch of Jerks in this other rpg....I still can't belive they didn't pick me. Stuiped Jerks any how)

Ok Your find your dagger and you try to stab him but with every attempt he doges with great ease. then after a little while he looks at you and says are you through trying to hit me? because honsetly I hope you where trying to miss because man you suck. After saying that he draws his huge sword that looks like clouds and it has a strange gem. Gem mage you know this rare and deadly gem it is called the Ghost gem. It is a legendly gem. it is said that only the dead could be able to touch this gem and survive. which make you wonder. How can he be able have this gem into his sword, Because he was revied...but if he was then he is no longer dead which mean that.... any how back to the fight he swings at you and hit you 3 times the 3 time sends you flying over the river, through the woods and past some weird ladys house who has a sign out front that says granma's house. While flying you being to think maybe I shouln't piss off the merchent who use to like to kill people..for fun....after that you hit the local town wall and you stumble into town and find food.

(OOC hows that for RP?)

OOC:Woh, Uhh Kinda strange Brothers (and sisters?) Once again I'm telling you your posting's wierd that's serious
IC: Visio wakes up, peering at the group from his darkened postion, the light catches his eerie silent face and he speaks, suprising the others "Maybe we should get moving, I'd like to set a record and actually return from this place, Loved one beside me"

"Indeed, that is what we are here for, is it not?"
Rathier then takes out a few gems and puts them in easily accessable pockets within his robes. They consist, but are not limited to: A Ruby, Sapphire, Topaz, and Emerald.
Rathier then looks at the other unconcious people lying on the ground. "Should we leave them or take them along? They haven't woken up yet."

You know what? I Agree with both of you I say we drag them along untill they wake up. Or we could pour water on them untill they are awake. But if that doesn't work then I says lets take them with us we could drag them along with us carfully. I Really don't care how we bring them with us I say lets just bring them along.


Gm to player: Premonitions what do you mean weird my spelling is correct no mispelling. So what is so weird about it? Oh and somebody else joined this rpg so he will be posting soon...I hope.

Vince awakens to this new light and looks around. Slightly glancing over the signs, he eyes quickly move to where the action is. He watches the fighting the arguing, the discord and chaos.
"This is going to be a long trip," he quickly mumbles as he rearranges the way his sickle lies on his waste, and combs back his long hair, making it gleam.
