The Origin - Wylderness Roleplay

Main Plot Ch. 1

(Okay, if anyone is still around, here we go! This is twenty nine years after what we last left off, and there was a war a few years ago, in short, and that the Wylders of the Origin are re-adapting to post-war life. So, look through the chapter to the last for instructions, and have fun! If you have any questions, do ask!)

Lightning flashed, the sky darkened, and seven figures emerged from the depths of their prison, with them, the army of Voyd.

The leading silhouette, aflame with glowing scales gave an angry roar that echoed across the realm, her dragon wings propelling her into the sky, a shockwave from her wings felling the forest around them.

A shadowed figure came close on her heels, inducing fear with simply her eyes, boring into the land beyond, which she had never seen before.

A cloaked woman strode beneath the two fliers, tossing her hood off with a cackle, exposing her dragon horns and terrifying smile. Creatures of nightmares shifted into and out of existence beside her.

Another winged creature shot forward, her stark white wing ghostly and pale in the moonlight, and nature trembled at the sight.

Just under her was a charging centaur, her pale blue skin glowing with power and silver hair bellowing with a sickly feeling. With every step, the grass and trees wilted and blackened around her.

Another two climbed out of the chasm, seemingly human at first glance. But then, the female one closed her eyes and the animals and plants howled and swayed, their minds and memories all laid bare for the woman, who immediate knew...... Everything.

The male looked around calmly, nonchalant of the mess the other had created. He blinked and the din of nature faded, the pained flora and fauna froze in time, and the forest fell silent. He spoke quietly, "We will have out revenge sisters. But for now, we need to call our armies together and reserve our strength. Soon, the Origin and the rest of the Wylderness will be at our control." And the world shook at their feet and the war began.
………………………………………………………

The council room became a battlefield. It was a clash of powers that should have never been used in war. A particularly brave but foolish Wylder attempted to enter the building and had his mind invaded. He was forced to stab himself in the stomach, and while he choked on an invisible force, an electric shock went through him. A meteor fell from the sky and annihilated him, ending his torture. The opposing forces struggled as they fought to gain advantage.

The Architect defended her siblings with courage and might, but was soon weakened as she took most of the enemies' attacks, enough so for her doppelganger to strike her with a fatal blow. Raven caught a glimpse of that, and left her opponent in a howl of rage, appearing in front of Anna with a flurry of wings and barging into the Voyder. The Voyder's eyes widened, as a twelve inch horn pierced her heart. The Wanderer looked more beast than human as she withdrew with the blackish blood of the Voyders dripping down her horn and to her cheeks. She bared her fangs, grief mixed with wrath in her eyes, and most gave her a wide berth as the battle raged on. The two had been close.

Schemer was flinging the very elements at the enemy, locked in combat with her Voyder counterpart. Her enemy fought with dexterity and strength, but she sensed it was impossible to win, thus, with a narrowing of her eyes, she darted towards the Admyn, summoning the most powerful element of all: Void. A crack was formed in the fabrics of reality, a swirling portal that had both Admyn and Voyder tumble into the gaping maw of nothingness, fate unknown.

The battle raged on, and eventually, as most stories does, it ended with the rest defeating the Voyders, and the Voyder army disappeared. Semele replaced Anna as Admyn Architect. Schemer was determined missing instead of dead, and there is a prize for those who can discover her whereabouts. Peace and quiet came to the land, and all seemed well. Well, all but the oddness of the Admyn's behaviour and the strange phenomenon in the Northern Ridge everyone's been talking about. The Admyns have been rooting out the cause of the disturbance, but to no avail, as they couldn't discover anything themselves, strangely. They eventually announced a bounty to whoever managed to discover the secrets of the mountains.
