Devon kept shooting into the crowd as the riot continued, though his supply was dwindling. After a few moments, a sudden force seemed to rattle the ground. Someone- a dyre, he noticed- had leapt to the ground and sent a shockwave through the area. Devon narrowed his eyes and chuckled darkly. "Blood magic, eh? Let's see just how powerful you are, dyre..." He moved to stand behind a corner of the wall to shield himself from the chaos. Few projectiles would have a chance at hitting him, unless someone was on the outer edge and had good aim. Devon took a deep breath and waited. He wasn't one to just jump into the fray itself, but he didn't know what to do in this instance. The best thing was to just watch and wait.

Highborne Fighter
Dyre Wolf
tagged;; Raphael

After his first target went down, Jax turned just in time to deflect a poorly-aimed jab with his armor. The opponent's blade skittered across his breastplate, making the dyre wolf grin. He howled loudly before sinking his teeth into this man's neck as well, this time ripping the head clean off. It flew a good 5 feet away, bouncing a bit into the mud. The body fell to the ground, and Jax turned to survey the scene. Raphael was slowly coming closer, so Jax moved towards him. He didn't know him personally, but he knew that he was a good fighter.

As he turned, however, a shock wave knocked him to his feet. He caught himself to avoid being smashed into the ground, but he growled in a mixture of pain and anger. He grabbed his fallen knife and turned to attack, but there was no one there. The origin of the blast seemed to be a dyre of some sort that was wearing a mask. Jax put away his knife and stepped up beside Raphael. He growled quietly, "What is going on?"

Robb frowned at the white dragon, he didn't trust it. Not one bit.
There was something off about the large dragon that made Robb pull the
small injured, bleeding dragon closer to him. "No, he needs
my help. I'm looking after him." he spoke after a few moments of
thinking about whether or not he was making the right choice. Maybe he wasn't
but Robb felt responsible for this little dragon now and he wasn't letting go of him easily.
However he had a feeling this dragon wasn't going to give up easily. Wrapping the small
dragon up in his over-coat, making sure to keep his hand under the little body in case his head snapped completely off altogether.

Lunaris was angry inside, but she hid her emotions well. She didn't want to overdo it, but she made herself look sad. "With all due respect, you know nothing of dragons. His wing injury must be treated properly, by another dragon, if he is to ever fly again. A grounded dragon is not good, and I know you agree with me." She didn't step closer, but she didn't move away. She simply glanced sadly down at the little dragon. His wing injury didn't look comfortable at all. She wouldn't want it to happen to her. He was small enough that it was easy to treat, but she doubted this dyre knew how to do it properly. "The longer we quabble, the worse the injury gets. Please, I do not want to hurt him!" She put all her conviction into her voice. At the moment, what she was saying was true- she did just want to help him get better.

Apphia Red Thatcher

Looking towards her side, she just flinched as she tried to take the dagger out. Taking a deep breath, Apphia suddenly pulled out the dagger. Throwing it to the ground, she set her hands on the wound and slowly got to her feet. This took great effort, but she got to her feet at last. Looking around, she just saw that everyone was silent and circled something. Looking through the crowds of people, Apphia suddenly saw a male with strange magic circling him. The question was, why is he showing his magic when it's strictly prohibited? Shoving her way through the crowd with pain, she just got to the front an just glared towards the man, listening on what he has to say about this. She didn't mind magic, but why risk his life for this worthless s***?

Still growling underneath her throat, she just bared her teeth, exposing her feline teeth with hatred, yet with questions. As we hands still laid on her wound, she just flattened her ears and pushed her way through the crowd again. Apphia had enough of this non- sense and just wanted to return to her broken down home and clean herself up. Seeing that guards still surrounded the gates and walls, the feline just muttered and just sat against the wall with exhaustion and pain.


Chase Ujj Forest

Suddenly being hugged by his sister, he just smiled and held her tightly as he carried her towards a safe area. If she died, there would be no meaning to life to him anymore. As she rested her head on her shoulder and whispered words into his ears, he just smiles and shakes his head," I will never leave you." He says, seeing that exhaustion started to take her over. As he walked towards the gate, he suddenly felt a force push onto his back and he held onto his sister, making sure that nothing harmed her from the force. Turning his head to the scene, Ujj just saw a male with the magic that he met earlier. Knowing that he shouldn't stay any longer, Ujj just headed towards the gate. Everything was calm, which gives an easier escape. Seeing guards along the gate, he haut walked up to them and just sighed," I need to pass through here..." He says with a stern tone. Being denied, he just growled," let me remind you, I out rank you, so let me pass or you will be reported!" Seeing that they finally listened, he exited the plaza and headed towards the stables. Seeing his loyal mare, he smiled slightly and sets her sister onto the soft hay. Preparing his horse for the journey home, Ujj just sighs and sets her onto the saddle with a gentle toss. Getting up as well, he clicked his tongue, telling his mare to head forward. Looking at his sister, he just slowly walked the horse home.

Kivuli looked up at the sky and watched as the falling star curved in his direction. A dark blue mist began to rise towards the sky with a strange mist which seems to have materialized out of nowhere. "Well..." Kivuli began, "Look above you." Kivuli watched as the shooting star came closer and closer. "Many of us believe in the gods above, but very few know them" he said in a strong and concerted voice, "I know the gods, and I know what they want. Magics have returned to the world and nobody seems to know why, but I do. An energy known as flux builds up in the world and with it, so does magical energy." Kivuli paused to let everyone soak in what he has just said, then turned his head towards the king and his guards, "The gods fear this power, enough of it and we may be strong enough to destroy them. The only way they may remove flux is by killing the very beings who are creating it. They rain a powerful magic from the skies and lay them in our hands. Every time in history, we have destroyed ourselves with this power, but that ends now. May the stars lead us to our ultimate salvation." Kivuli paused a moment to look up at the sky, the star was going to land in front of him any second now. "Lest you wish to be killed before our salvation, I suggest you run." he said urgently.
(A small amount of time passes here for character action)
The falling star illuminated the plaza with it's bright light as it made it's approach. Many of those who didn't see it before now did and ran in fear, guards included. It curved into the plaza and landed in front of Kivuli, it let loose a great shock wave which shook the earth around it. Kivuli knelt down in order to lessen the blow, the energy quickly drained from him; the load of redirecting the meteorite and holding still proved to drain nearly all his energy.
Dust and smoke covered the plaza, Kivuli coughed and covered his nose with his cloak, peering through the dust. He walked forward and saw the meteorite sitting in the ground, its size comparable to that of a cow. Kivuli felt a swell of excitement form in his stomach, despite his composure and planning, to actually be steps away from the shard was like nothing he's experienced before. Wasting no time, Kivuli drew his sword and stuck it in the rock, prying a hole into it. Within it sat a small translucent shard which had the image of black flames burning within it. He grabbed it out quickly and stowed it away.
"Yes my friends, this is starfall. May we kindle the fire but avoid the inferno." Kivuli then bolted to get out of the plaza as fast as possible, but not before skinning part of his hand on the meteor. He winced but kept running, with no energy left in his soul shard there would be no way for him to use it for an easy get away. Kivuli looked at his hand, he left some fur behind, fur he was sure could be used to track him down later; hopefully, nobody is smart enough to do that.

(There will be plenty of starfall events in the future and everyone will have their chance. This was meant mainly to serve as a way to introduce the idea to your characters. If you want a starfall event to happen to make something interesting happen with your character or between characters, feel free to pm me. There will be an event relatively soon as well.off topic but if anyone cares for it, my skype username is "Austen the Naz/roulette", I'm open to chatting/messaging whenever)

Nɪᴄᴋɴᴀᴍᴇ: Rafe

Rᴀᴄᴇ: Human

Rafe did not have time to answer. The mysterious Dyre began to speak again - of the Gods. Rafe was by no means a Godly man; he prayed to them once or twice for luck, but never sought them out for guidance or redemption. He was not entirely convinced of their existence at all, but he had learnt that blasphemous thoughts like that were best kept quite. Now, he didn't know what to believe anymore.

As the strange light and mists danced towards them through the sky, the Dyre's monologue seemed to become more urgent. Rafe did not heed it at first, but the pace at which others were retreating made him think otherwise. He managed to get to safety just in time.

The impact was worse than the one before. Grabbing the shoulder of a nearby townsperson was all he could do to stop himself from losing his footing this close to the crash site. The light was blinding and he blinked furiously as his eyes protested in pain. Rafe watched as the Dyre extracted something from the rock, then turned to flee.

For a moment, like him, everyone seemed somewhat stunned. Then the reality of what had just occurred set in. Rafe had dropped his sword in the fray and now he spotted it down near the base of the meteorite. He sprang up to retrieve it, sliding hastily down the small slopes of the crater that was formed upon impact. Others were to scared to go near the strange rock, however, Rafe was sure others were having the same ideas as him. His initial aim had been to retrieve the sword and go, however the nearer he got, the more he felt drawn in by the huge rock. Rafe held his palm against the callous stone; it was hard, around the size of a cow and strangely warm to the touch. It was not the meteorite he was interested in.

Rafe scrabbled around until he found the notch that the Dyre had opened only moments before. It was empty; no magical shards remained. Rafe cursed, running his fingers around the mouth of the hollow, as if checking for small, hidden cavities. Something coarse and soft prickled his fingers. Pinching his thumb and forefinger together, he extracted the fur carefully; it must have belonged to the Dyre. For a moment, he was simply going to discard it; however a plan formulated in his head.

He cast a sideways glance at anybody nearby, checking if anyone had seen. He couldn't be sure. Rafe's fist closed securely around the fur, all thoughts of retrieving his sword forgotten. Hastily, he made his way back to Jax, his body language trying to remain nonchalant. When he reached him, he tilted his head towards one of the gates which was no longer guarded, "Let's get out of here before someone takes the time to notice who we are."

A helpful mask of mud and dried blood clung to Rafe's face; his tunic splattered with gore. The phoenix sigil was hidden behind a layer of undefinable sludge. At a glance, he could pass for a commoner, but to anyone who looked to closely he was identifiable. Without waiting for an answer, Rafe turned, striding with haste towards to small gate. He had more questions than answers now and the one way to solve them all would be to find the mysterious Dyre; and the one way to do that was with the help of a few dyre's of his own.

Ty
Male
Dragon
Caller

There were bubbles of noise which would burst into Ty's awareness like Morse code, infrequent and bunched together. Tynex could vaguely feel warmth underneath his damaged body but everything surrounding him felt hazy and sluggish, he tried to open his eyes but that was pushing his body too far, instead he used a lot of his strength to grip tightly on to Robb's forearm, he felt safer that way, reaching out in his desperation he felt like he'd brushed against Robb's consciousness and with that remaining energy he pleaded 'Please, please don't let me die, not here, not like this' before curling his tail around Robb's arm with the rest of his body.

Shae
Female
Human
Highborne

From her vantage point Shae could see down above all the people who were standing around the crash site, she'd kept hidden through most of the ordeal but she heard everything, including the Dyre talking and then leaving, before she could figure out what he meant she could hear others moving below her. Shae took this as a cue to peek over the ledge of a window opening which allowed her to see down into the plaza, there were still a few people inside but they were also making a speedy get-away. As she crept along the inner wall to climb down the beam she'd used to get up there in the first place she caught sight of someone moving inside the crater, she quickly ducked back behind the wall and watched him, he appeared at first to be wanting to retrieve something but instead got distracted 'What are you up to?'. She attempted to identify the man but apart from recognising the rather high quality of his clothing she couldn't see any distinguishable features through all the mud. After he left she climbed down and walked over to where he had been looking, she could see a sword just out of her reach, she hovered around the area for a moment, then slid down, the sword was barely visible let alone identifiable but she took it anyway, it was much heavier than her own, again a sigh to her that this was no peasant. After climbing out with the sword she made a hasty retreat out of the side exit and headed for home.

Dark. if this isn't okay, let me know.)

Alice
Female
Dyre
Other

"Well that was unexpected" Alice, was nearly blown clean off her branch, she'd fallen asleep shortly after the king had started talking and had missed everything, she was only woken up by a huge blast of energy, she wanted to leave immediately but there was the undeniable scent of blood which lingered in the air. Instead of fleeing Alice remained exactly where she was, partly out of shock but also just to watch what was unfolding before her, after a short amount of time she saw people leaving, including a dyre with a mask on his face, a couple of people plastered int he blood of others and a red-headed lady who ran straight beneath her trying to carry a sword which was obviously too heavy for her. Alice then took a deep breath and flapped her wings creating a clean breeze around herself before diving off her branch and heading for the woods.

Ary let a slight smile form on her lips as he said that. Now she was on the horse, they both were, riding home to safety. But Ariel couldn't help but notice the sky, the strange symbols that had previously been there were now gone and a gust of wind or something forceful, pushed the area around where a strange cow-sized rock had landed from the sky, but because they were far enough away, the wave of force didn't seem to affect them as much as it would have affected the people closer to the strange rock. She wiped away the tears from her cheeks, she was muddy and dried blood covered her arms and clothing, new blood dripping down her arm from under the piece of her older brother's short material wrapped around her thin arms. She was tired, the event haunting her thoughts, all she wanted to do now was wash and go to sleep. Nothing more, she decided to take a trip to the woods or something tomorrow. She felt like exploring, but not today.

Shadow had watched it all, the rock falling, the strange dyre taking something from inside. He flew away after that. He was hungry and tired, he decided it might be best to go back to the barn. No doubt about it, the villagers there would of put some food down for him by now. He spread out his large wings and soared into the air, letting the cold wind brush against his face. Landing on the ground, he plodded back into the barn again. Just as he had thought, there was a bucket full of sheep heads and other meaty goodies. After a few minutes, the bucket was empty and licked clean. Shadow had gone to the top of the barn, the bar attic to be exact, and had curled up and closed his eyes. He had had enough humans today and just wanted some rest.

Nodding slightly, Robb picked up the small injured dragon carefully, blood smearing onto his hands again and leaned in closer to the large white dragon about to pass him to her, but something made him stop. The small dragon had positioned itself so it had it's arms hugging his forearm. He knew know that this must of been some sort of sign and hastily but carefully, retreated and put the dragon back wrapping him up in his overcoat again with his hand underneath the bleeding body for protection.
"I'm sorry but I can't let you take him. I don't want to hear what you have to say anymore." he said firmly, before making his mare backup and turn in the direction of the Highborne faction where his "home" was. Making sure to keep his one hand under the bleeding dragon so that he could make sure that the dragon didn't fall off. "I'll help you, don't worry. I won't let you die, not while I'm here with you." he whispered to the little dragon.

Leaning against the wall, her eyes half closed, Apphia just took deep and fatal breaths. The more blood she lost, the closer to death she would come. Everything was a blur and the sound of people were fading. Coughing again, she just looked towards her side with pain and looked at her hand which was covered with blood. Groaning lowly, she just tried to get up again, using the wall for support. Getting to her feet, she just took deep sighs and slowly walked towards the gate. Once she was only a few feet away, a large shock wave of some sort pushed her towards the ground and she grunted as her body bashed into the ground. Laying there for a few split seconds, Apphia suddenly got to her knees and looked towards where the crowd was. There was a huge dent in the ground and Apphia didn't want to risk going back. Suddenly she felt the ground shake as people started running towards the gate.

Covering her head as people ran past her, she just kept her eyes closed, hoping no one would hit her as they passed. Luck wasn't that easy to get and suddenly some tripped over her and both crashed to the ground. Shaking her head, she just watched as they got up and ran off again. Knowing she couldn't stay any longer, Apphia suddenly took a deep breath and whistled as loud as she could. Hopefully her trusty stallion Yale would hear her. Minutes passed again and suddenly people screamed and moved to the side.A large appaloosa crashed through the hoards of people, his bridle and saddle gone, but that's because he was rested among the stables by the plaza. As Yale trotted through the crowds with ambition, he suddenly slowed down and snorted, his head lowering to level with Apphia. Smiling, she set her bloody hand on his muzzle and sighed," Take us home Yale.." She says softly and with the help of her stallion, she got up onto his back and she wrapped her arms around his neck.

Leaving the plaza as quick as the breeze, she just held on tightly, glad that Yale was always around to help her. Trying to stay awake, she just let the breeze blow off her hood and her hair wildly fly through the air. Feeling Yale's heart pump, she suddenly slowed him down and just walk the rest of the way home. As they both headed home, she just looked towards the sky where strange clouds rumbled around the plaza. Seeing that they were in the broken down part of town, she just slowly slid off of Yale's back and led him to a broken home, where cracks, torn curtains, smoke stench residue, and rotting furniture remained in the building. Looking at Yale, she just smiled weakly," Thank you.." Rubbing her hand across his muzzle, she just led him to a small stable on the side of her house and lets him rest there for the rest of the night. Walking inside of her home, Apphia just coughed to the dust and just cleaned herself up. After cleaning her wounds, she crashed onto her bed, which was made out of hay and slowly fell asleep.

Getting closer to the center of the city, he just looked around and kept walking his mare. Home was in sight and he just stopped his mare and leaped off. Grabbing Ariel off with a gently, he just told his mare to stay and entered inside the building. Setting his sister on a table, he just grabbed some medical supplies from the counter and looked at his sister. " This might hurt.." He says softly, unwrapping the old materials the covered her wounds. Checking how deep the gash was, he just sighed and grabbed a needle a thread. " This will only take a minute.." He says, slowly stitching up the two gashes. Making sure he didn't hurt her too much, he just sighed and finished about 2 minutes later. Wrapping new bandages around her arms, Ujj just sighed and finished cleaning her wounds. Grabbing his sister's hand, he just sighed, seeing that he just put his sister at risk. " Ariel, I'm sorry that I wasn't here for you. If you ever need anything, please tell me." He says with a smile and just kisses her forehead and puts away the left-over medical supplies.

Tossing the old bandages and bloody cloths. Hearing footsteps come from the stairs, he just grumbled as he heard his parents gasp. " Chase Ujj Forest, what happened!" His mother says with anger, looking at Ariel with shock. " There was an accident at the king's plaza ma"am.." He says, turning towards her. Watching as the father came up to him, he suddenly was smacked across the face. " I suspected more from you son!" He says with anger, glaring at Ujj. As the mother started babying Arial, he just nodded," I understand father.." Walking out of the door to put his mare into the stables, he just stopped to the sound of his mother's voice and waved a bye to his sister and just exited the door.

Grabbing Ellie by the reins, he lead her into the stables and started cleaning her up. Giving her fresh food and water, he just patted her neck and just sighed with exhaustion. Walking out of the room, Ujj just looked towards the dark skies and just sat down against the stable and lit his pipe. Blowing out smoke from his mouth, he just sat there thinking about what happened at the plaza. Hoping his sister would be alright and she would be better by tomorrow. Knowing that he should stay away from his parents as they would calm down slowly.
