Diablo 2(for the uninitiated, there will be, once again, guidelines)

Morgoth used a Rogue's armor to wipe off his blade. He took a deep breath and then offered the deaths to Trag'Oul. After that was done, he turned around to see if everyone was allright.
 
Eliah:

Standing with a slight smirk, Eliah returned the spear she had been weilding to its place. Her leg muscles were taut as she rose to her feet, her breathing came rapidly but was already slowing to a normal rate. The muscles along her arms and shoulders were lit with a sheen of sweat. "I will be fine, the oaf is right this time. We should press the attack, the less time we give the Countess to reform her forces the better. She no boubt knows we are coming now..." She walked past Alic with purpose as she drew her forearm across her brow. He, Eliah was sure, could scarce believe his ears when she whispered, "Thank you." to him as she passed. She whirled about, seeming to have already recovered from her sprinting only moments past, and addressed the men as a whole. "Come now, there are innocent virgins to resque..." It was hard to figure if she was mocking them or simply giving them a token motivation to proceed.
 
"Well those have to be the best words that I have heard in a long time as I am more than willing to rush down there and kill as many of those undead creatures as I can."

Alic then looked down the hill to see a large group of creatures moving towards where they were and turned to the rest of the group, "And it doesn't look we have to wait anyway because they are coming right towards us."
 
Eliah:

Turning away from the men to see the trong of hellspawned lumbering toward them, Eliah once more freed her spear. She was so worked up from the last battle that she gave no thought to the chance that she could be overcame by this mob. So she rushed into them with a fury, at first it seemed as though they would fall to her with ease. That is until they swarmed about her, nearly blotting her from her party members eyes. There were several moments when all that could be seen was the glint of her spear's head as it burts through the mass of dead flesh that was quickly subsuming her. Not even a minute passed before there was a blood curdling shriek. A mear moment later Eliah's limp form was being lofted into view, carted away, toward the tower, by a pair of demonic goat men. Her arm had been savaged and dripped blood. Her party was locked in combat, little they could do to give chase. They were being blocked off by an ever advancing wall of dead, moaning, groping undead.

><*><

Five minutes passed as Eliah's unconcious form was taken to the prison cells of the Countess's tower. She was dropped to the grimy floor, with a hard thud. She roused a bit but stayed in a heap on the ground. The two goat men that had brought her in latched shackles onto her wrists and ankles. They then looked up at the far wall. I slim woman was chained to the wall, stripped to nearly nothing. No doubt they had vile thoughts about her, but knew too well that this one along with all the others in this cell were to remain untouched. They slowly left the room, closing the cell door, plunging all the innocent maidens into near darkness.

OOC: Seeing as Money needed a play mate. ;) Trinity, oh Trinity... Heheheh!
 
Alic shouted out when he saw Eliah been taken away and ran in that direction only to be blocked by a mass of undead who came straight towards him. He looked at them with a blind fury and slammed into them, the blade of his sword glowing an angry color. The undead began to fall all around him and as he began to get closer to the tower, not knowing that the undead had closed off the way back to his friends. He looked up at the tower and thought of a way to get into the vile place but before he could a huge shape walked before him. He looked up to see an undead minotaur looked down at him.

Alic screamed out and began slicing at the minotaur who moved with each stroke, avoiding them. The minotaur then moved with a speed that was unbelievable for its size and slammed its fist into Alic's side which caused him to fly off his feet and onto the ground. He looked up at and the last thing he saw was the minotaur standing over him seconds before it slammed its fist into his head.


When he opened his eyes again Alic looked around and saw that he was in a large chamber that was unlike anything he had seen before. He then heard a noise and moved his head to see a beautiful woman walking towards him. She stopped near him and looked at him with a smile before she slapped him across the face. She then spoke in a voice that seemed to come from the grave and said, "Oh good, you are awake. I would hate to have to rip you apart when you still unconscious."
 
Morgoth and the Barbarian rushed into the remaining hellspawn and quickly sent them to Diablo. They pressed the attack and had soon penetrated into the Tower. They were beset by four Blood Clan Champions, and so they kept their distance, luring one away, and trying to kill him. They were done with them after an hour or so, and were very tired, covered with sweat. They rested for 15 minutes, and began to press on.

OOC: Are you in the upper tower, or in the cellars?
 
Mistake Corrected

OCC: This is a post I wrote a little while ago but made a little mistake in posting it so please forgive me. I have mada a few slight changes.

IC:
The tramp of feet announced the arrival of the groupof about 40 or so humanoids. They were the personal guards and fighting men of Ralcair, the powerful and might Necromancer. About half of the group consisted of Skeletons and other hellspawn summoned to battle evil. Ralcaia surveyed the land around him with a gleem in his eye. Somewhere in this barren wasteland was a witch and soon she was going to die. Defeating powerful magic users had always been Ralcair's strong point. For one thing, they never expected someone to use teeth while also using bone armour and then sending mastered skeletons against them. This, in combination with his unexpected poison dagger attack, made the name Ralcair feared. Strangely, he was only a low level necromancer and only his cunning and wits kept him alive. His men and minions kept melee fighters off him while he worked the magic in combat.

"Master", shouted one of his returning scouts."What is it Salamon?" said Ralcair abently. " Large, black structure in the distance and I think this is your witche's playground master". "Thats it! Thank you Salamon! Full gallop! We must reach it before nightfall". The party of horseman and demons dashed into the distance...
 
Thorr

"You hokay guy, for skinny little Nekkie. Thorr glad to have you at his back. You need to rest a bit?"

Though he directed his words to Morgoth, it was plain that even Thorr's incredible stamina had neared its limits. Blood, much of it his own, covered him from head to toe. Only Giant-Cleaver remained clean, its magic burning off all the gore from its length.

"We find friends in this dungheap of a tower, then relax with virgins, yes? Where you think they are, anyway? I only saw them both taken this way, but they weren't dead, just taken. Hope Evil Cuntess doesn't think Eliah's a virgin!"

Turning a corner in the dark tower, they came upon another of the tower's seemingly limitless number of guard-creatures, an undead giant, wielding a sword even larger than Giant-Cleaver.

"Hey! I killed you already! Just last week! Stay dead, dammit!"
 
OOC: I'm not sure where Eliah is but I'm somewhere near the top.

IC: Alic started screaming as the blade ran down his arm, cutting a deep gash into it. His blood was draining out a several different wounds and he was starting to fall into unconsciousness but every time that he did the woman slapped him across the face and said, "Oh no, I can not let you do that yet. I want to hear all the pain that I inflict on you."

She then began to run the blade of the dagger down the other arm and he started screaming out again, a scream that seemed to fly up in the top of the chamber and then come back to him louder. The woman closed her eyes and smiled as if it was music to her ears and then began to run the blade over his abdomen before she heard another noise, turned to Alic and said, "You stay right there and I will back to you very shortly and don't die on you or I will be very annoyed and will make you pay for it the rest of you miserable undead life."
 
Thorr

"Oh, shit! Die again, foul wight! Roll over, and be dead! Morgoth, we don't have time for this creep! I yust heard screaming, man-screaming! Must be Alic. Don't think he's a virgin, do you?"

Swinging Giant-Cleaver, the blade that first felled this giant in life, Thorr charged the monster. This time was different, however. This time, the giant felt no pain from the huge gashes Giant-Cleaver made in his torso, and was not distracted from his attack on Thorr. While Thorr's sword was thrust deeply into the undead's former vital areas, the giant reached down and grabbed Thorr, crushing him against the monster's chest.
 
Morgoth swung around and launched a bone spear. The massive projectile ripped a hole in the giant's head, spilling it's brains out on the grass. It didn't die. So Morgoth jumped up, and Loath Wrack cut off the giant's arm. Then, finally, the giant dropped onto the ground, bleeding from numerous wounds. Morgoth cut a path through the undead into the tower. He looked at the stairways. One went up, the other down. He guessed and charged up.
 
Unexpected Guests

Ralcair and his minions arrived at what was the site of a recent battle. " Good God! Look at this place! Demon dead eevrywhere!,"cried one of the fighting men. " Form up and keep constant vigilance!," shouted the guard captain. Riding at the middle of the party, Ralcair surveyed the area. The blood and guts of hellspawn lay scattered about like stones in a quarry. Finally, the group of men and monsters came apon the corspe of a giant, his brains scattered about the landscape. " Callifar, take your men and go down the stairway. Me and my pets will go up." Yes my master", muttered Callifar, still shocked by the carnage about him. The party seperated, one group to meet their doom in the clutches of unimaginable horrers, the other to lose allof its members except its leader, which turned out to be Ralcair, lucky for him......
 
Eliah:

The cell door opened once more and a strange hunch backed humanoid entered, it carried a barbed whip in its right hand. Making a circle round the chamber, admiring all the maidens in its own perverted fasion, licking one here, pinching at anothers nipples there. It finally settled on poor Trinity. Touching anywhere near one of the virgin maiden's sexes was punishable by death, or worse, and was well known by all of the countess's hellish servants. So instead of indulging as the hunchback had wished to it would just have to settle for hearing the little innocent squeel in pain from sting after sting it administered with its whip. Eliah had come too just as the hunch back entered the cell. A couple of the othe maiden's in the room murmured weakly for mercy, made desperate by many a night under the hunchbacks sadistic care. Eliah eyed this task master of sorts as it drew the whip back with a sharp snap that sent the majority of the pleading maiden's back into a fearful silence. Their silence made Eliah's command for the task master to hold his strike still all the more audible.

The hunch back flinched with annoyance, letting the coil of the whip hang listlessly to the cold stone ground. Turning as sharply as it could, it drew the whip back, aiming it for Eliah's slender, exposed stomach. It bit into her flesh sharply. She didn't, woudln't give the demented hell beast the satisfaction of a cry of pain. Tilting its head, the hunch back spoke, it was a hissing, gurgling sound that issued from its throat. "You would take the lash in this girls stead?" It unnerved Eliah slightly, though she would never show such a reaction outwardly, she felt a twinge of fear. She was alive for only one reason, and a sudden unexpected chill ran up her spine at the thought of these foul, unholy things knowing that reason first hand.

"I would see you empaled on the end of a blade!" Eliah hissed with wild venom. Her eyes sparked with an undenighable blood lust as she tugged futiley agaisnt the chains and shackles that bound her most effectively.

The hunch back gave into a fit of mocking laughter, fell silent, then drew back its whip for a second bite into Eliah's flesh. She steeled herself against it. She still felt the pain but it seemed distant.
 
The countess walked into the large chamber and saw the hunchback as he whipped the latest addition to the room. She walked up to the amazon and looked at her, her hand resting under the amazon's chin.

"My, aren't we a pretty young thing. I will enjoy bathing in your blood."

Suddenly the amazon spat in the countess's face and the countess smiled before slapping her right across the cheek, making her head turn.

"You stupid little bitch. I will leave you to last now."

She ran her fingers over Eliah's abdomen and then brought them back up, covered in blood. She brought her fingers to her mouth and sucked on them, closing her eyes and letting out a sigh as she did. She looked back at Eliah and said, "You do taste as beautiful as you look but just wait until I drain you."

The countess turned back to the hunchback and slapped him across his face then said, "Do not kill them you imbecile. I want them alive but first I have to get back to my little toy- my favorite little paladin pin cushion."
 
Alic

Alic lay there with his eyes closed, trying to stay conscious even though he felt the blood flowing from the deep gashes along his body. He began to say the words to one of his spells and hoped that he had enough energy to finish it. His head fell to one side as he continued.

"-god of justice, please grant me the power to injured those who have injured me."
 
The Countess

She walked along the hallways- the taste of the amazon's sweet blood still in her mouth when she felt an amazing amount of pain come from her right up and looked down at it. Her eyes widened when she saw her skin slowly rip open and blood begin to flow from the wound and looked down the hallway at the room where the paladin was and knew what he was doing then fell against the nearest wall, a deep wound appearing slowly in her leg.
 
Alic

Alic felt his strength leaving him but he tried to stay awake long enough for his spell to take full effect and the witch who had done this to him to feel everything that she had done to him. He opened his eyes and saw that a few of his wounds were starting to stop bleeding and smiled when he pictured what was happening to the witch.
 
The Countess

The countess walked along slowly, leaving a trail of blood behind her. He dress was soaked with blood as every wound that she had inflicted on the paladin had ripped her body apart. She silently cursed the paladin and his ability as she was loosing her precious blood and beginning to turn into the hag that she really was. She slowly opened the door to the chamber that held the paladin and saw that he was silently saying the words to a prayer and raised her dagger, pointing it at his heart.
 
Alic opened his eyes when he felt the presence near him and looked in shock at the figure that was standing there. She looked nothing like the woman who had inflicted his wounds, she looked practically ancient and the dress that she was wearing was soaked with blood. He then saw the dagger poised above his heart and said, "I would not do that for if you do then you will kill yourself and I don't think that you want that."

The woman dropped the dagger and screamed at him before she swiped at his face with her fingernails, ripping bits of skin off which appeared on her face. She put her hand to her face and screamed at him before she disappeared through the door.
 
Countess

She walked quickly to her bathing chambers and looked at the large round bath that still held blood in it then stripped off the dress and sank into the blood, sighing as she did. As soon as she felt her youth and energy returning she said the words to her healing spell and felt all of the wounds that she had closing. She then put her hand to her face and found that that wound was still there and screamed out a curse to the paladin.
 
OOC: Taking liberties. Tell me if it's bad. I'll edit.

Morgoth whirled around at the sound of footsteps. It was Ralcair, his brother! Morgoth dropped Loath Wrack, and ran up to embrace Ralcair. He picked up his little brother and hugged him tightly, the gore that covered his armor wiping off on Ralcair. The Morgoth stood back and admired him. "You have both matured and grown since we last parted at the sea, brother", noticed Morgoth.
 
Thorr

His head swimming from pain, Thorr heaved the undead giant's corpse from off of his body. "Up, must go up..", he muttered to himself. "Alic up there somewhere. Good guy, must save. By damn, I hate stink of dead not-dead things!"

As he headed up the nearest stairs, he noticed chunks of freshly-destroyed monsters. "Hunh! Look like Nekkie went this way. Hope he left some for me!" Quickly, the barbarian's amazing stamina allowed him to recover from his wounds. He was by no means in perfect form, but felt ready to continue the fight.

Pausing at the top of the stairs, his keen senses told him that a group of undead were ahead. Charging forward, singing a battle-chant to his ancestors, he waded head-first into the mob.

As he proceeded to hack into the strangely non-resisting undead, he heard a familiar voice scathingly ordering him to quit killing these monsters, as they were on his side.

"Oops! Sorry, Nekkie-guy! Thought they were more of the Cuntess'es things. Who's that?" He had seen a new figure, similar in appearance to Morgoth. "More help? Good! Let's find friends now, slay Cuntess, rescue virgins!"
 
Brothers of Darkness unite

Ralcair could not believe his eyes! His brother Morgoth was here in this hell with him! Smiling slightly at the huge Barbarian and his brother and teacher he said," It is good to see a friendly face in this place of death. I did not expect to find you here Morgoth". Still smiling, he picked up Loath Wrack and handed in to his brother. Small world, he thought. All hope of trying to claim the glory of slaying the witch vanished with his brothers arrival. Next to him, his own power was nothing! Suddenly, a very large swarm of undead fell apon his own creatures and slaughtered them in moments! "Run!", he shouted to his brother and the Barbarian, who had turned to fight the oncoming mass of hell creatures. Dashing down the hall he took a narrow flight of stairs up and found himself in a hallway with several doors in it. Choosing randomly, he ran through a door to the left and found himself in a sort of cell. At first glance, it appeared empty, but then Ralcair noticed a shape curled up on the floor. "Friend, are you alive?", he asked quietly. Suprisingly, the shape slowly lifted its head and said weakly," The lord of light has surly sent you to me". Lighting a flame in his palm, Ralcair inspected the figure closly and determined that it was a man, and a knight of the holy order at that, with his siver plate and white stripes. He was also bleeding in a dozen places. Ralcair did not know healing, nor did his brother. Cursing, he tore off some of his black cape and used it to bind some of the paladins wounds. Sitting back, he heard the light tread of footsteps in the hallway. "Uh oh", he wispered to the darkness....
 
OCC: Sorry about my grammer but I hate paragraphing on the web. This is just to thank you people for helping me get started on racking up posts. Who knows the first gain in rank? Also, I was just wondering Morgoth if you have played any other Blizzerd games. And can someone please be the countess for a second. My character, Ralcair, is in Alaric's cell with him and I typed in that someone was coming so it might as well be her...
