[RPBT] Shadow Card v. Lloyed Tashna

[CassinoChips]

Setting: Lloyed likes to fight in barren areas. If there is no life, no objects, he is set. Something he really enjoys is a stone ground that anyone could get hurt on with a good fall. He would like there to be a rather colorless sky as well, so to add to the effect of his desires. A bland, gray color scheme of no life, and no end, with no sky. In his abilities he has a spell that can take one to this land. A solid sky seeming to be no sky, appearing full of non-existent and stagnant gray materials, falling in place, drifting with winds. In his preferred area there is no wind, no fire, no water, there isn't even water in the air. If someone wanted water, they would have to use magic to make it.

Lloyed Tashna, the one who saw himself as the god of the normal man, was standing in a land that was baron and empty. Nothing was in his sight, and he loved it. The stagnant dry air flowed in and out of his lips as he breathed, savoring the emptiness that he once desired. His eyes remained widened looking at the dusty horizon, knowing that it was not dusted at all, just...empty.

He began to walk, stepping his foot on the hard rock ground as the small particles crushed under his boots. His steps were slow paced, and he shut his eyes to inhale through his nose, just to smell dry air full of nothing. A smirk grew on his face, and it was his usual evil look, revealing his psychotic ways and clearly horrid intentions with the world.

Lloyed was not one to handle insult, and he did not even appreciate the rare compliment that came his way. An insult to him would usually lead to death, and if not, then pain and emotional strikes to the one that sent the insulting words. If he did that he would just leave them there to suffer. A compliment would not help the situation he would create either way, he would enslave you no matter what if his plans came true, if not then kill you at the very least. Nobody was an exception to this desire he held in his heart.

Anyone that had defied him in the past did not make it too long in the future, as his sword skill was intense, teamed with his abilities, made it nearly impossible for any mortal man to escape his power. That was the exact thing that made him feel as he was a higher power than any man. The twisting evil nature of his powers also helped to bring him to this point. Afterlife magic was deadly to both the victim, and the user. It took a great toll on the sanity of he who cast it, along with the risk of their life if they made a single wrong move.

 

[Silver Shadow]

Shadow looked around the wasteland, slightly surprised by how empty it was. After visiting his family's grave with mixed results, he decided to go exploring again, and somehow had ended up in this blighted area of the earth. There was absolutely nothing. Shadow sighed, adjusting his grip on his scythe as his eyes roamed again. A place like this would be perfect for someone to appear. Thankfully, he still had his shadow, which reassured him about his fighting capabilities.

Still nothing. Shadow mentally considered the possibility of turning around and going back to the graves and start again when his eyes came across something. A human, cloaked in a robe, that gave off an evil aura. Shadow shuddered only slightly as he felt it. Despite what others believed because of his attitude and abilties, Shadow was NOT an evil person per se. He was just a loner. This man, however, seemed to give evil a whole new meaning.

Shadow's scythe came up to calmly rest across the back of his neck as he approached the man. "Which way is out of this wasteland? I want to leave." Shadow was being blunt. He wanted to leave soon as possible from this place, and this man.

"Which way is out of this wasteland? I want to leave." Lloyed heard from a small creature. It was something he had not recognized and was very new to him. He looked it up and down, examining the weaponry and the clothing. He had a feeling there was some power in it, but he was not intimidated by the size. He kept walking until he went right by it and he spoke to it while getting ready to draw his sword. "Who would want to leave this beautiful emptiness?" His sword was drawn out only a few inches and the purple blade was reflecting arrays of purple light being reflected off the blade. He was feeling generous for his normal self. He would fight only if he was attacked first, but he still had the urge to lure the creature in. "First tell me your name, then I will tell you where to go. If you can beat me, Lloyed Tashna..." He was showing no modesty, and was itching for a fight.
