This thing still isn't dead?! I don't think this is any normal monster? Look! There are green data bits around it?! ((like databugs from the games))

(What are databugs?)

Keita pants, "Yeah, this thing is never gonna die!! We've been hacking away at it for hours!! At least it has terrible aim!!"

She looks at Jace, "Thanks for helping out!! We needed it, even if it doesn't seem like we're doing anything to this thing....Okay guys! I know we've been trying, but lets concentrate all our attacks on the center of the guardian. Where it's ring is. Still the same attack stragedy, but focus your attacks more!!"

-nods and waits for ketias signal to attack it-

Fang dodges an attack before holding his sword in front of him, he became spinning it, beginning to do his Signature attack. The sword began to glow redder and redder.

*stares as fang's sword begins to glow*
wow! that's pretty cool!

Hello! I was wondering if I could jump in here, roll up a character an all.. See:

Character Name: Rooks Durandal
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Age: 26
Class: TwinBlade
Weapon/Spell of Choice: Twinblades
Physical Description: Kind of spikey Dark Reddish Brown Hair and brown eyes, a tan headband, a sleeveless black jacket, and a pair of fingerless gloves, and a pair of loose fitting black pants.

Likes: Competent People, Any Items better than his own, Helping People, Winning.
Dislikes: Incompetent People, People Hording all the best items, Losing at anything, Waiting.

Past Pertinent History: While fairly new to The World, He was an avid online gamer trying various other games. Drawing on previous experience he quickly picked up on how things worked. He quickly adapted and became a decent player in his own right. Though due to his personality he's a realitive unknown.

Personality: He can seem aloof, or cold and unfeeling to those who first meet him. Getting past that he can range from outright obnoxious, to quite a nice guy. He's reported to be quite the generous sort as he's been known to give up items to people who could use them better than he could. as well in groups he's been in he's also been known to give up his agenda for the moment to help someone else accomplish thier own. That said his prideful tendancies lead him to try and do everything he wants done by himself, despite the fact he usually needs help to accomplish most things he sets off to do so, and so he almost never asks for help.

How they found out of the World: Someone he knew started playing.

Hopefully I filled it out all right.

(a databug is one of those unbeatable monsters from SIGN. Or in the games, they're the monster's with viruses that Kite datadrains.)

*Jace jumps in and plunges his sword into the ring of the monster, twists it, then jumps back to the lines. He quickly does Phal Repth and heals everyone completely.*

There we go! Back to the action!

Guys this is one of those unbeatable monsters, like back from the .hackers days. I don't think we can beat it. If we keep fighting too long we might end up in comas like in that last incident. And since Kite isn't here with his bracelet thing, we're screwed!

Keita winced, "I hate giving up, but I guess our best option is to run?"

She glanced at everyone around her, noticed that they were in fact very tired out, even after Jace's healing, "One at a time, okay? But I have one question do we run further in, that's my choice, or run out of the dungeon?"

Keita closed her eyes in thought, then looked upward almst as if asking a higher being, or praying, "I'm going further in, if you don't want to come with its your choice. No one is being forced to go, but we will still run one at a time. The last person out will have to throw up a smoke screen to hinder the guardian for a moment, then run as fast as they can..."

Everyone is welcome!! Don't worry about being late! Your sheet looks fine, you can just jump in whenever you see fit. Remember to have a good reason or excuse for being in our area. (Ie. You were exploring this dungeon, and when we run further in we bump into you, or you're trying to get into it...or something) Anyway, hop in! We like new people!!

I'll go last. And I'm going further in. I want to see what this thing is guarding.

*Jace does a Bullet Revolver ((I'm pretty sure it's on the list)) stunning the monster for a second*

(meanwhile inside)

Rooks slices through the last monster, and takes a small breather. "I always find the groups of monsters.." He mutters under his breath. He spies a potion that was dropped and swipes it up "Ah, at least this'll help later!"

With the noise of his fighting gone he hears the sounds of fighting coming from a ways behind him. "Hmm.. Someone else is here? I wonder if they're..." his train of thought ending as he hears footsteps approaching.

*slices level one monster in half*

Remember we are in a high level dungeon. There will be no level one monsters here. Just a reminder.

Keita looks at Jace, "Now you be careful! And get out as soon as I'm out of sight!"

She runs down the tunnel leading further down into the dungeon, everyone else had already ran ahead, only Jace was behind her now. Soon she was panting, and slightly lost. I can't believe I haven't caught up with anyone yet!

Suddenly she literally ran into someone, "Oh my god! I'm sorry! Jeez why did you run so far ahead? Where is everyone else?" She lit a small light, and realized that this person was not someone she had just been fighting with, "Eek! Who are you? Seen anyone ran by here in the last few minutes?"

Rooks almost gets the wind knocked out of him, as he didn't expect someone to run right into him.

Putting away his twin blades he replies chuckling slightly "Yes, Hello to you too, I'm Rooks, and your the first person I've seen since I got here"

He shifts a little uneasily on his feet. "So who did you think I was? and who was it you were looking for?"

*Jace does a Darkness Spell, trying to blind the monster if only for second. In that second, Jace uses a speed charm and takes his chance for escape. He flies straight down the hall into the darkness. He does a barrier on the front of the hall*

That'll stop him for about 10 seconds, I'd better find the others quickly.

*He continues down the hall untill he hears the voices of Ketia and someone else. He steps out of the darkness to face the stranger, standing beside Ketia. Sword laid across his back*

Hey Keita, where are the others? Who is this?

Keita turns around quickly at the sounds of Jace's fast approach, "Oh hi! I'm so glad to see you! He's Rooks." She looks around, "Well, I have no idea where the others are, maybe they left us behind."

She once again turns towards the man named Rooks, "I'm Keita, this here is Jace. We were party of a party. The rest of our group should have come running down this tunnel. I don't understand what happened to them."

I wonder if the dungeon has been altered, or maybe we missed a turn off in our frantic sprint....I'm starting to get worried. Keita smiled at the two standing before her, "Lets get going, its not going to do us any good to stand here. Rooks, you're welcome to come with us, I'm gonna warn you that if you keep going down this way you will run into a guardian. One that is sereiously pissed off."

The admin turned away from his moniter, "They are going to cause us some really big problems." He muttered to a person standing behind him in the shadows.

"Yes, they will. Maybe your work on that dungeon will stop them. Or maybe our stupid guardian will get them finally." The voice replied sarcastically, "You had better not screw this up."

The man once again turned towards his moniter, he didn't know what else to do. He had separated the group, made the guardian invicible. Nothing was working, but there was no way that he could fail. "Maybe the surprise will kill them."
