The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Ku'ux approached the wall and looked over as Kayla approached as well, running to the spot to where Ku'ux was, only to have him run along the wall as Kayla followed suit.

"What are you doing?" Kayla asked him.

Ku'ux came to a halt to see one army hadn't attacked yet "Something's not right, they're not attacking" he spoke as he shook his head "We must find Adykon, he will know what's going on now"

"Adykon?" Kayla asked.  She had no idea on who Adykon was as she hadn't met him yet, but followed Ku'ux once he had run off once more.

Jake took a look around the room "nothings changed apart from the fact that a war is outside...." said Jake, jake turned and faced the stairs and proceeded up them to go and see if his old room was still as it used to be before he turned.

Marcus climbed onto the roof of his house and sat down. Up here, there was a better view of the battle. his house was not high enough to look out over the wall, that distinction was limited to the Lord Tallon's castle and a few noble homes. But Marcus could see the defending on the parapets rushing to and fro..
Minna ducked an ice blast from an enemy mage and returned fire, hitting the mage in the chest, and knocking him out of the air.. Minna grinned briefly then continued moving around, returning fire, and mixing up her spells.
_ Ilsa saw a defender go down with an arrow in his shoulder, and she grabbed him  just before he fell off the parapet " Stay still" She said, lying him down below the face of the wall" This will hurt.. just grit your teeth" she said, and grabbing on the shaft of the arrow, tugged on it and began to pull. The soldier screamed, and little by little the arrow began to lift out of the shoulder. Finally she managed to get the arrow out, the tip was soaked in blood.  She tossed the arrow aside, and started guiding the soldier down the stairs. " We're going to get you help.." she said to the soldier who was reaching for his injured shoulder.

Meanwhile...

Aerta had to try again. Dememoras was out there, but Adykon needed her. Minbenthac needed her. By extension, the whole of her race needed to stop this evil. Summoning her magic again, Aerta sat down crossing her legs once more. Calling upon all of her powers of concentration, the archmage tried something different. Instead of sending out her spirit to view the battlefield, she would take the images of the battle home to her.

Using a form of "astral echolocation", Aerta fired out far-reaching beams of magic, heading for Minbenthac. Traveling at the speed of light, they bounced back harmlessly and invisibly, giving her a picture of the combat. She also sensed something else; an item whose composition was not fully in the material plane. A large magical device nearby a young dragon, a large bird, and a kobold. An astral beacon!

Jake walked up the stairs and went into his old room, he looked around the room and sighed. He then noticed that Sasha was lying on his old bed. Jake walked over and gently nudged her. Sashas eyes began to slowly open. Jake leaned in close to her face "guess who". And Sashas eyes opened wide and she was fully awake.

"Jake Jake Jake Jake Jake!" yelled Sasha "your back!" Sasha hugged Jake extremely tightly and Jake gasped for air, Sasha let go and Jake took a few gulps of air. Once jake had regained his breath he spoke to sasha "Sasha, can you still use magic? if you can we have to get out there and help defend the city"

"i think i can.." replied Sasha, as soon as she had finished the sentence jake grabbed her arm and they both ran down the stairs to try and help the army defend against demoras' army

(OOC: In this and in at least one other RP, I shall go back and add more to it. I made this on the run, pretty much.)

From all four sides of the city, the enemy charged. They didn't merely advance, they ran at the walls, pushing their siege equipment, scaling ladders and heavy weapons with them. Three of the four armies were led by a red, green, and blue dragon, respectively. It would only be a few seconds more before the enemy were within firing range of the archers on the walls.

Adykon stood firm, resolute, even. "Alright everyone. We've seen what they can do, and THEY'VE seen that we can take everything they've got. We're not gonna die today! Minbenthac shall not fall as long as one of us stands to fight!" Brave words, but would they be enough?

Meanwhile Adykon was at the walls while the armies advanced on his position. Jake and Sasha had been running through the city at speed to reach Adykon before the armies had broken through. "Adykon!" yelled Jake "where here to help you fight these guys". "yeah" replied Sasha "with my magic i can blind some of the soldiers for a few seconds while you and Jake kill most of them". "sounds good doesn't it?" said Jake

Margas turnd at the two human's reached them. ' You know these two Adykon? he asked, having never met Sasha or Jake before , he wasn't sure whether he could trust them
 Minna recognized Jake at onceJake! How in blazes did you get here? We tried searching for you in Hekaga, but We couldn't find you.. Are you alright? I do hope you didn't run into the prince.. hes evil.. to be blunt' Minna of course didn't realize Jake's true mission, his helping them was just a ruse..
 Ilsa guided the injured soldier back to Tallon's castle where there had been atreatment wing set up, and from the looks of things, they already were hard at work treating the injured. from what Ilsa could see, there were at least thurty patients already, possibly more..

"umm..yeah i didn't run into the prince" lied Jake "i was just confused when the spell wore off and i came back to minthenbac as fast as my legs could take me...." Just then a couple of soldiers had breached the wall. Sasha began chanting a spell and a small blinding light was at the breach for a mere 3 seconds....enough for Jake to jump down and begin to attack the attackers. (that okay?)

" Thats good, as ong as you didn't run inti him" Minna didn't say any more as Jake jumped down to join the battle " Seems to be the same as he usually is, impulsive, willing to scrap.. but has undeniable courage" she thought to herself as she rejoined the battle
_ Ilsa led the Soldier to a nearby bed " He was shot in the shoulder with an arrow "
 Hes one of the lucky ones, of the thirty we're treating, we might be able to save twenty' the servant replied " Just get him onto the bed .. I'll be with him shortly.. tell him to stay still.
 _ thank you miladay" the soldier replied as he climbed into the bed " If not for your help, the fall would have killed me I'm Corrus"
- Lady Ilsa of Dercos, at your service Corus. I only did what anyone else would have done "Ilsa replied 'my husband is still fighting out there I might return to him.

So far, the lines were holding, in spite of all four sides of the city being attacked. Dememoras's forces were holding back. Why? The three dragons had flown over the walls and were taking shots at the city with fire, acid, and electricity, yet even these were not doing anywhere near the damage they could be doing if they truly wanted to.

It soon dawned on Vespion that this attack, fierce as it was, was nothing more than a test run. The Dark Master was testing them. "Damn this. Even if we win today, there's no way Minbenthac can stand by itself." A sense of anger welled up in the cleric, but he fought on. The Demonbred Dracons stood at the base of the wall, taking shots at the wall guards with their bows and crossbows, but not really attacking. They could have used their catapults, scaling ladders, and siege towers, but they didn't. It was as if they wanted something to happen first, like they were waiting for something. Unknowingly, Adykon would give it to them.

The mercenary lined up some archers to take out the first line of Demonbred soldiers. They weren't attacking yet, so he figured he might as well score some easy kills. "Ready, men! Aim! Fire!" A volley of arrows erupted from the walls of Minbenthac, striking the Demonbred soldiers. The arrows sank deep into the flesh of the first line of the soldiers, but they did not falls. In fact, the injuries only made the Demonbred angrier, fiercer, even excited, as if eager for more blood, more violence, more battle. The sight of blood, even their own blood, awakened the demons within them. The Demonbred began to transform, their eyes glowing red, muscles bulging, fangs growing in their mouths as they let out savage roars. As they transformed, they grew in size, and claws the length of swords emerged from their hands, horns as long as a Dracon's arm erupted from their heads, and their tails grew a poisonous stinger at the end.

This was the goal of Dememoras's attack; to unleash the full potential of his forces.

Annette had known the attack would be massive, but this...this was too much, as she stepped up toards the front lines near the wall where the  Demonbred Dracons were attaking and she raised her staff into the air and cast a fire spell trying her best to disperse the Demonic Dracons from the wall.

Arianne leaned on a nearby wall. - "This is far too much, we need something like a miracle." - She was indeed tired, but she made use of this little time to get some energies back. After all, the real battle has just started.

Eriol was preparing himself for the new hordes of enemies to come. - "A miracle would be welcomed indeed, but they are not just granted, so we must make them possible... fighting to the very end!." - He was looking at his wife, then he turned back to where the city walls are, smilling evilly. - "We will make through this day Arianne, you'll see." - The male Gaean Panther grabbed firmly both of his blades, which he once said were forged from Dragon scales and steel, making them capable to cut through many things with ease.

 He then looked back at Arianne again, for a moment. - "This will be quite the tale to tell Isaac and our future kid."

 Arianne smiled and that and began walking until she got next to her husband. - "Yes, that will be our greatest tale to tell."

That wasn't a wise move " Margas muttered as he saw the Demonbred soldiers transform. the arrows had caused them to nearly double in size, and the sting, almost like a scorpion, looked very lethal. If they stung any of them the chances of surviving them were low without very quick attention from a skilled healer..
_
Ilsa waited until a nurse attended to Corrus, then rushed as fast of she could out of the palace " the roars from the demonbred sents down her spine and into her soul.. " by the gods, what terrible beasts has Dememorus unleashed now?' she thought as she headed toowards the nearest ladder which led to the top of the wall.

The Demonbred represented the worst, lowest, and basest desires in the psyche. Rage, sloth, anger, fear, lust, greed, gluttony, envy, violence, and pride. There was no turning back now that their demonic blood had been awakened. The transformation was complete and very hard to reverse. No one was in control of these creatures now. They would move into the city and kill, rape, loot, pillage, and burn until they were too exhausted to keep killing. The more they were hurt, the more powerful their attacks would become, and if given flesh or blood to consume, they could easily heal even the gravest of their wounds, converting newly-consumed matter to fill any holes in their own, at the cost of some energy.

They were Dememoras's children, demons in a pattern not too unlike his own. Existing only to destroy and consume, it was a case of life gone wild. All the normal functions of a living creature were present, and all of them were magnified, twisted, and set against the chosen foe. Minbenthac was in dire straits as the Demonbred began to climb up the sheer walls of the city, claws biting into the magically-hardened stone, moving up the walls as if running along a flat surface!

This was not a good day for Adykon.

Annette noticed that Margas was right. These demented soldiers were becoming far more deadly than anticipated. She looked around the battlefield that would eventually be the entire city and she sighed. With a trace of fear in her voice, Annette turned to her fellow combatants and asked, "What do we do?! These things can't be stopped!"

Jake was trying his best to fight off a demonbred soldier but it blocked all of his attacks and it lunged at him and it bit him on the shoulder "AAaaaAAHHHHH!!!" yelled Jake, Jake tried his best to consentrate and summon some flames to his right arm so he could at least get it to let go.

"We Fight!' Margas said. "Drive them back.. whatever the cost!" He said. Reaching deep within himself, he let forth a flurry of bright and powerful magic.  He sent it down amongst the advancing Demonbred. it knocked a few off, but there was still more advancing. Try as Margas might, for every one he knocked down, three more started climbing. several were already halfway up the wall, and showed no signs of stopping..
- Ilsa climbed up the ladder as the cries and shrieks of the Demonbred grew louder and louder. It was then Ilsa caught her first glimpse of them She shuddered openly. 'We must stop them.. she thought, or no one in this city will be spared..."
_ Minna  Started throwing debris at the advancing Demonbred, but it produced little  positive effect. their skin was quite thick, and any injuries the shrapnel inflicted was quickly healed bu their magic, indeed, one could say they ENJOYED the pain, as  being hit by the rocks spurred the climbing monsters still more..

Jake successfully hurt the demonbred soldier but that just made it more bloodthirsty and it tried to rip his metal arm off. "hey! let go!" yelled Jake. The demonbred noticed that not much was happening to the arm so the demonbred decided that if it wouldn't come off he would use Jake as a weapon to swing at the defending minthenbac soldiers. (that would suck so bad...)

The other three armies pressed forward, as no one could stem the tide which swept over Minbenthac. The wall guards fell back on two of the four sides; the ones being pressed by the Demonbred and the Dragonbloods. Flying high above the streets, three dragons kept taking shots at various buildings, even though it was only a few pinpricks for a city of this magnitude.

Adykon slashed at the throat of a particularly large Demonbred, his blade biting into the scaled flesh of the enemy. A blow which would have decapitated almost any Dracon only succeeded in sending this one stepping back a few paces. A wound that ought to have seen blood flowing out of the jugular saw only a few drops as the wound began to dry up after a few seconds. Now it was the Demonbred's turn...
