    Hallows Eve The Veil Falls

    Fantastic, so blood was not to be shed this day. The mage turned to the other elf, and the man she cradled in her lap. Aside from the severe burns lining the poor soul, the man's magic... He was no professor of Elbion, but he was plenty sure that wasn't normal for a pyromancer. But back on the...

    Hallows Eve The Veil Falls

    His head snapped in the direction of more newcomers to this little party. He'd be more interested in the lantern itself were it not for some... distinct features he found in this one. 'By Arethil, is there a costume party hidden in the background here? ' And while he had nothing towards elves...

    Hallows Eve The Veil Falls

    He didn't even feel the world drop out; just one moment where he felt weightless, almost as if he defied the natural laws of the world. He had been about to take to the steps themselves, and then, "Wait whaaaaAAAAAAAAAA?!" And down he went, sliding down into god knows where. He hit solid...

    The Great Ones Re-taking Elbion

    These things did not stop coming! Even whilst conserving his energy, these fiends were unending in numbers. Though sporadic, they were present at every turn, every darn tootin' roadblock, preying on innocents and town guards alike. The mage had no obligation to the college and the city of...

    Hallows Eve The Veil Falls

    "Ha... ha... MRGH!" He had to struggle to not throw up on the door of this... haunted house. By the gods, no matter how much he trained up his mental and physical fortitude, he couldn't stand the blowback of any teleportation, even on a good day. And it was during the Lessat Eclipse of all...

    Open Chronicles The Mountain Queen and the Dragon Valley

    A simply dreadful job, and the ice mage already found himself wishing he had never taken this, simply letting the ambient ice cool the refreshments. He wasn't even using his magic - the residual cold radiating off his body alone did a comfortable job of keeping all these beverages cool. He kept...

    Open Chronicles The Mountain Queen and the Dragon Valley

    He was immediately led into a grand room he had never, ever, seen. He was not the most social of his kind, and he had not the experience of touring the vast halls of the Elbion College, so this huge structure came as quite the shock. How was he supposed to cater to everyone here? "Ah yes, you...

    Open Chronicles The Mountain Queen and the Dragon Valley

    Those whom stood guard at the gates felt the subtle chill in the air, a shift in the wind. Even though it was a merry day, full of warmth and celebration, it seemed there was always one whose presence would bring ill tidings. Almost as if it were a law of the world. They would stand on guard...

    Open Chronicles The Great Ones Aftermath: Elbion

    The ice mage noted the new company. Two men, one with armaments, the other whom was his polar opposite in craft. Beneath his hood, his cerulean eyes gleamed brighter, hiding the grin of relief at the reinforcements. They could be from the college or even from the faraway Eretejva Tundra for all...

    Open Chronicles The Great Ones Aftermath: Elbion

    Next to Kara Orin, three spikes of ice, each as tall as her, slammed into the earth. Like meat on a stick, three more of those monsters were impaled, even their death rasped silenced as rigor mortis set in with alarming speed. Focraig himself descended from above, beneath him a larger monster...

    Open Chronicles Hunting Gods

    Cold indeed. It was magic of a kind practiced by one errant ice mage. The mage handed over a full bottle of beer, taking a coin pouch in return. He hated this side job. Acting as a mobile cooling machine dispensing free ice drinks? Not the most glorious of uses for his magic, but it was more a...

    The Great Ones The Great Ones Beneath

    The surge came without warning. It was a veritable wall slamming into him with all the full-force of a charging elephant. A ripple of what seemed to be, to his senses, raw magic. Power the likes he had never felt before, and never would in any othe adventure after. It was only thanks to his...

    The Great Ones The Great Ones Beneath

    His temporary job as alarm bell done, the mage slammed his book shut, tossed it haphazardly in a corner and rushed out his room with a haste as if death were on his heel. Given the situation, it was not far off the mark. His rush led him out and into the streets of Elbion's Port District, where...

    The Great Ones The Great Ones Beneath

    The hell? The bloody ground was shaking! The mage hastily abandoned what scribbles he had been writing down (A thesis on how his Cryomancy functioned, and how it would interact with other magics of ice that used other sources of power) and rushed to the windows overlooking the city. He hadn't...

    Open Chronicles A Collegiate Inquiry

    The trio would find themselves rudely interrupted, though not intentionally, when a mage fell down from a portal mere meters from where they were, sending books and dust alike up in the air. His cloak fluttered, and from his neck did an amulet of pure ice glow a navy blue. His eyes lit up in...
