**************************************** Goodluck with your Trials *Signed* - Joey Lanai, Dragoon Corporal Title: Re: Dragoon Trials - Vincent Redfield (Warning, long. ) Post by: Vincent Redfield on February 07, 2006, 02:25:31 am I's gunna be the newest Dragoon, I tells ya.
Right. So after the buzz of being a Junior faded (as did my hangover), I stumbled to the board to read of the Dragoon tasks. Work work work, it seems....*sigh* Right! So I got started. Seems at Destard, theres too many taints running around, so the work wasn' gunna get done there. At the deamon shrine, there was too many, well...deamons...so I headed over to the Valor Shrine, and after a short jog, I came upon what seemed to be a reptile breeding ground...hundreds upon thousands of lizardmen and snakes resided there, until I found their 'boss'...Fluffy! Aye, Fluffy the Dragon. I tried to talk the dragon into 'playing' dead for a good poster, but, he didnt seem to like tha' idea. Pft, And I tried to make it easy on 'em! For shame. Well, I'll give 'em credit, he put up a decent fight... ((OOC: The following is told in an 'omnipotent' point of view.)) Vince's Tale The dragon and Vince stood toe to toe, eying each other for what seemed like an eternity. The 'agreement' to let the dragon live in exchange for a picture of it playing dead went sour, so a fight was imminent. Vince charged at the dragon, who immediately cowered back. Vince merely growling in its direction forced the dragon to cower back. 'Don't hurt me, oh mighty Vince!" cried Fluffy. "I concede!" "Too late!" Cackled Redfield, who, in a single swipe of his mace, knocked the Dragon back, flying into the mountain, where it died instantaneously(or did it?). Vince claimed his reward and sneered, he had excerted force, which he disliked. His new prize, a dragon leg, in his possesion, he headed home. Fluffy The One-Armed Dragon's Tale "Please! Oh please oh please, won't you please let me paint you playing dead, so I can join the Dragoons!" begged the covian warrior. "No deal!" Exlaimed Fluffy, with a grin. "I'm unbeatable...now..you must pay!" The giant reptile sprung at Vince, who curled into the fetal position. Just as Fluffy was done battering him with swipes and fire, he raises his paw for the kill-strike. Just then, A rock fell from the mountains above onto Fluffy's head, knocking him unconscious. Vince, seeing this as an opportunity, quickly severed the dragon's paw, and ran off home. How It Really Happened "Okay, listen." Began Vince, "We can both save ourselve a long drawn out fight. Let me paint you bein' dead, and I'll let you have my shield so you can tell your buddies you killed a human." "I dunno..." Hissed Fluffy. "I need richess..." The Dragons forked tongue came menacingly close to Vince's face, who sneered and jerked away. "Gah!" Exclaimed the warrior. "I'm warnin' ya.." "Fine! My portrait in exchange for your shield." The dragon lay down in the prone position, a few feet from Vince, feinging death. The warrior slowly crept up on the dragon whilst its eyes were closed, and raised its axe... "Hey!" Cried the Dragon. "You were gunna cut my leg off anyway..!" "What?! Lies! Slander!" The beast suddenly hopped up, and breathed a long stream of Fire at Vince, who deflected it with his shield, but due to the heat, dropped it in surprise. Wincing in pain, Redfield charged and began to swipe at the dragon, its thick scales guarding it well. The dragon easilly knocked Vince on his back, who blacked out momentarily. Comming around, he looked up to see the Dragon about to pounce. "This is it Vince, it's over...the final cur--" *CrAcK!* Vince eyes were shut, expecting to be dead. Seconds passed, and he realized he could still feel his legs. Onne eye opened, then the other...the dragon lay unconscious..or was it dead? A huge boulder lay on its head. In disbelief and shock, he looked up, to see a team of Miners, wielding pickaxes, atop the mountain. "Oh dear!" They shouted. "Was he your pet?!" "..Uh.." It only took a second. "Yeah! Why yeah he was, you stupid, ignorant miners!" The miners looked shocked as they ran down the mountain. "We're terribly sorry! We didn't mean it!" Vince cut them short. "You imbeciles! Never looking where you're throwing rocks...look at my poor fluffy...dead!" Vince began to feign weeping, though he wasan't exactly a Britian town actor. The miners, not knowing any better, took their hats off, and put it to their chests. "We'll pay anything...we're..so sorry! Is there anything we can do?" Vince grined. ((OOC: Back to our regularly shedueled arrogance.)) Right. Turns out that dragon was a dragon-blacksmith. A rich one, too! Weird, eh? So, I ended up walking away with about 10,000 gold, a brand new suit of armor, and, most importantly...the dragon's claw! Gwahaha! I's the best. 'Eres some drawin's.

Right, t'day, February 8th, I set out to complete my task of leading a patrol to the orc fort. I never like reports on small patrols, because theres never much to say, so I'll keep this short and sweet. We moved in. Killed two Brutes. Got the ore. Came back. Okay, so maybe I can do a bit better.. We lucked out in the sense that as soon as we stepped in the fort, a Brute was waiting for us. Even I was surprised at how quickly we had taken it down. Collecting the ore, we moved on, slaughtering little peons and armored orcs as we went, until orc brute number two came along, and was disposed in the same fashion. We divided the ore up, and legged it back, when ANOTHER brute came at us. So that makes three brutes we slaughtered. Unfortunately, ore is heavy, so we only managed to get 50 back...which...I kinda put on your floor, Joe. Sorry bout the mess. *Cackles* Anyway.. Attending M'self Delcarakdur Kurt Kas Valentine Hrothgar Dalamar Good stuff. Here's some paintin's. (http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/2552/ob1nf.png) (http://imageshack.us) The best, Vinny Red.
