Session #01: Onwards to Yndaros

Oui oui, 

We needed to "prove" ourself to Argasto

Stood against his loyal guards and needed to damage them.

I tried and then I missed, but i tried again...I FINALLY HIT WITH MY WEAPON.

Seems we will be following Argastos Caravan tmrw morning. 

Toruma  - Colour (Olivine) 

Sprite - Colour (Butterfly Bush)

OOC / General Knowledge - Colour (Golden Dream) 

Chronicle of the Copper Crown 

In-game date: 1st Andonia (Wildling, Wither) Year 21

I likely once came from Albator - Originally from the East?

We start around a campfire.

KJ - Name - Sekiro. Known gender - Male. 

Has amnesia regarding his past, but claims he wants to join the Ironsworn - takes hunters and warriors - Good at hunting and offers to help train those who ask. Uses a longbow. Is always wearing a cloak with his hood up.

Andy - Name - Rogan. - Species - Ogre. - Known gender - Male.

Deep voice, slightly intimidating? Businessman - Blacksmith. Carries 3 large hammers on his person and apparently knows his way around the mountains. Decidedly not intimidating; just a softie who needs more processing time than some.

Rob - Name - Slice. Known gender - Male. 

In his 30's, has a short beard and brown hair. Often wearing a hood and a mixture of tattered and oddly nice clothing, including a fancy looking cape that has some sort of thin metal chain link appearing armour? Lots of belts. He moves...oddly, like a clumsy dancer, very happy (weird) and away from main group.

Riceling - Name - Ove. Known gender - Ove...

Well stocked and armoured person wearing proper gear unlike most, it is branded. Possibly soldier?

Jenny - Name - Fera Lindt. Known gender - Female

Acrobatic individual, doing cartwheels behind the camp with her staff. Very cheerful.

Everyone introduced themselves as I passed out soup I'd helped cook. After some general conversation, a question of my agility was made, and I agreed to try and jump over Rogen's arm (I critted! First roll woop!) and successfully leapt not just over his arm but his whole person. Sprite was very popular and received extra food from a couple of people. Apparently, that isn't normal as many seemed impressed or in awe. Must be more cautious in the future. Slice seemed suspicious. Luckily 2 individuals came by and took the attention off of me as I overheard them talking about the bad news we'd already received; the mountain pass wouldn't be safe to cross before winter hit. However apparently 1 caravan is going to try and brave it and they had been told they could join! It looked like they were trying to keep it secret but were just so excited I had to try and encourage them to be honest and tell us what was going on; sadly, I wasn't successful but by now the rest of the caravan troop knew something was happening and everyone swarmed Argasto to ask him questions. I stayed back a little as I didn't like the big crowd. 

Argasto claims that there isn't enough room in the caravan for everyone to come along safely and that if we want to join as a part of the caravan then we have to prove ourselves. We each faced a guard currently assigned to the caravan, although Rogen had two people against him which didn't seem quite right, he may be bigger but he's still just one person? Not overly important I had me and Sprite to think about. Most of the people I was lined up with didn't seem to be doing too great, maybe it was because we had been told not to severely hurt the other person and they were holding back? Or perhaps they're just not big fighters. Either way it wasn't too hard to trick the guard into letting me reach up towards him, trail my fingers behind his neck and dig in along with a swift kick to the back of his knees (which I wouldn't have had to do if he wasn't so darned tall!) and bring him, quite literally, down to my level. Maybe I went a little overboard, I accidentally dug my claws in more than I'd meant to, but he was fine, got up and ran away, so I knew at least Sprite and I would be safe. Plus, his blood was an unexpected little treat.

The others continued to struggle, the other woman seemed to be toying with her guard which I admit I found rather entertaining, and the man of few words, Ove, was out before he even had a chance to get a blow in. Still the one that irked me more than I thought was the two against Rogen, who had already taken him out of the running, but he'd had two against one! I was gonna give at least one of the guards a piece of my mind but apparently Argasto was satisfied, the 'challenge' was called to a close and he decided that it would be worth the risk of taking the whole lot of us along after all. Honestly it was tempting to lash out at one of the guards anyway, but I got distracted; probably for the best, by Fera and her guard who she'd managed to knock out with a single hit. I'll have to keep an eye on her, she's more than she lets on clearly. Her guard just needed some smelling salt and a little salve, and he came too soon enough, and thankfully too because I was starting to feel hungry again. 

I figured it'd probably be best if I took myself and Sprite off to bed to calm down, we've got a long journey ahead of us in the morning, if the others are to be believed.
