based on dragonlance world

Raistlin's cold and eerie gaze stopped Steel in mid-sentence. The mage waved his right hand and the whole tavern was filled with blinding white light, shocking everyone and stunning the Knight, sending him sprawling over the floor in awe and shock.
Tika and Flint fell back and shielded their eyes, only Tas widened his in curiousity.
Raistlin stood up, casting back his hood and all who saw him in the midst of the white blast truly believed that he was capable of ultimate power...
And suddenly the light was gone, except for the fire in his hourglass eyes.
"Nephew, know me as Raistlin Majere. I am the Master of the Past and Present. I went into the abyss and nearly defeated your Queen. But i didnt... my twin saved me.. and so did my other nephew, Palin. Now i have returned.."
Then Raistlin sat down again and merely stared at the fire. "But what u said was true.. i am an imposter.. i am not the powerful mage that is, was Raistlin." He turned and stared Steel in the eyes.. "Why? Because i have lost the MAGIC!"
Tas then stammered, "Then how did u do that bright light thingy, Raistlin?"
Raistlin smiled, a smile without humour or pleasure. His palm dribbled white powder onto the table.. "Flash powder, tas... "
"The magic.. flowing around me, forever eluding my grasps... the magic within..gone.. extinguished... why? i shud say its a gift," he whispered with a sarcastic smile " a gift from Her Majesty herself...reducing me to sleight of hand"

OOC: the setting is supposed to be when Krynn still had magic right? cool.. den its only Raistlin that has lost his magic.. imagine him to be like "returning from the abyss after being rescued by Palin from the Abyss.."

Tike gasped, as she had not recognized her son (OOC: I'm the missing Cameron's wife, so you're my son right? Wait, let's clarify before I continue)
 
OOC: Steele would probably be Tika's nephew, I think.

IC: Flint was shocked when he heard what Raistlin said. How could he just lose the use of his magic, that was virtually impossible. Or was it; he remembered being told by Caramon's son Palin about the Abyss, the queen and what happened to Raistlin so it might indeed be possible."
 
steele is kitaira's and Sturm's son so therefore Tika would be his Aunt IF you want to be considered as married to Caramon...otherwise no relation

IC

watching the turbulent scene unfolding I wait with the patience of dragon
 
OOC; wait, if you are back from the abyss with no majic, then that means that I have grey hair! *feels his topknot frantically* Oh no, my hair!! this is almost as bad as the time it was cut off by the minotaurs 40 years ago! damn minotaurs....
 
Tika frowned at her nephew and sat down uninvited at his table. Feeling suddenly older, she sighed and wacked him in the back of the head.

For a moment, she thought he would hit her back.

"Speak respectfully to your uncle,"she said.
 
Steele said nothing - he just glared at Tika and then looked back at Raistlin.
"So, it is true. The Queen in her infinite wisdom has taken your magic and you were meant to be one of her greatest servants."
"I am a servant to nobody!" Raistlin shouted so loud that it astonished every one in the inn.
Flint walked up to Raistlin and said, "Now now ye youngster. You don't want to do any damage to yourself."
"The only person that I want to do damage to is my imputent nephew," he then looked at Flint. "Don't stand sounding like my brother Flint. You can't do it, he is too good natured - the big fool and you are basically you."
Flint looked at Raistlin with a look that if he were a mage would have killed him on the spot.
"Ye stupid young whelp! I have killed people for saying less than that to me."
Raistlin just sat back, picked up his tea and sipped it, a smile on his face. Flint just looked at him then turned and walked out of the inn, gripping his ax so tight that his knuckles were white. Tasslehoff looked at Raistlin and then Flint as he slammed the door open and ran off after Flint.
As Raistlin watched the kender run off after his best friend a smile came to his face.
 
OOC: I think that it would be best if everyone was at the best that they could be so Tasslehoff would be young but Flint would still be Flint.
 
As Flint walked away from the inn he was grumbling to himself and didn't hear Tass calling out his name or running up behind him. He then felt a hand on his shoulder and turned quickly, his ax in his hand.
"Don't do that Flint. You could have killed me, in fact you nearly did. That was more of a fright than I needed, why did you have to do that?"
"Don't do that- don't you ever sneak up on me when I am in a foul mood. Ye should know that. I could have killed ye where ye stand, ye stupid kender!"
Tasslehoff was about to answer but before he could he heard someone laughing and turned around.

OOC: Is it okay to have two characters, I like Steele and wouldn't mind being him. Anyway, seeming as I have introduced him I can't have him disappear now, can I
 
OOC; wasn't cyan bloodbane the largest of dragons, save for the great red herself? I remember him from Lorac's nightmare, the infiltration of Neraka, and raistlins goodbye! (events, not book titles)

"Hey, what was that? I'd better check it out!" proclaimed Tas. Flint mentioned something about getting himself killed and not caring, but Tas pretended not to notice. "Are you coming flint? you know you can't be an old grouch all the time!"
"Your right I'm an old grouch. old enough to know when not to poke my head into what's not my business"
"Oh comeon. Adventure keeps you healthy"
"avoiding you's what keeps me healthy. that's why I'm in such bad shape!" tas pretended not to notice again and pulled flint along to examine the noise
 
Flint followed Tas, grumbling, "Blasted kender, ye're going to get yerself killed and me with ye."
"I was killed. Well almost, I told you about that in the inn remember. The Cataclysm, Raistlin, being tricked by him. Or do you want me to tell you it again?"
"I would rather ye didn't. Now, come on- let's see what's making that noise."
The two of them heard the laugh again and followed it to see a cloaked figure standing there. Flint quickly pulled out his ax, "Who are ye?"
"Someone that you should have learnt to fear by now. Someone that will destroy everything that you love and there is nothing that you can do."
The figure raised both of its arms, sending Flint and Tas flying through the air to land with a thud several feet from where they stood. Flint got to his feet quickly and looked to where the figure had been but it was gone.

Tas looked at Flint and said, "Who or what was that?"
"I don't know, but if we don't want to find out then I think that we better get back to the inn."
Tas readily agreed with his friends and the two of them walked as quickly as they could to the inn just to see that Steele and his uncle were have a heated discussion in their corner.
 
Flint and Tas raced into the inn and straight up to Steele and Raistlin who were having a discussion about Takhisis which was beginning to clear out the inn much to the shock of Tika. Tas walked up to Raistlin and said, "Raist, we just saw something. Don't know what it was but she threatened us, said that she would destroy us all."
Raistlin looked at Tas and said, "Good. At least you might just leave me alone so that I can talk to my nephew."
