"You must stop!" The speaker shouted, but not at the three heros. Deep within his naked breast a dark and hissing voice growled. [spoiler]You are a tooooool, to be uuuuused a cast awaaaaaay, I am an Aspect of the Darkness! you WILL do my bidding![/spoiler] "No!" The cry was more a whimper than a protest. From a nearby ruin, the figure of a graceful and deadly creature hung observing the ensuing drama, a delight it would seem was unfurling before all of Offtopica, and she had a great seat. Her name was NIL [quote]*sitting on the ceiling, legs crossed* Makes perfect nonsense to me. *munches on popcorn*[/quote] as she surveyed the scene, munching on handfuls of buttery intrigue and popcorn in kind, A most heavily armed and armored Mandalorian approached the man crowned with wrong. [quote]"Alright, how bout a test to see who has control." The armored soldier retrieved one of his many guns from a holster on his thigh. "What I've got is a fourty-five ACP with one round Which of you can make more use of it; which of you [i]will[/i] make more use of it?" He chambered a single round cocked the weapon and laid it at the feet of the motionless man, unafraid and itching for a reason; he didn't buy this act "Do it; or are you a coward?[/quote] The Strange man said nothing, but a dark presence was rising within him. [quote]"Shame. I guess it's the latter, what a waste..." [/quote] He knelt unafraid and picked up the gun as the stranger stood motionless a look of pure dark delight on his face [quote]"Boy, you do need some serious help." A warrior scholar of the highest orders stepped forward, a mischevious grin on his face. "What's something you can tell us about yourself mister Aspect of the Darkness? Something charming so that way maybe I can hook you up with a Lady of the Darkness. I heard Morganna is available, you know, the "lady of shadows"[/quote] His name was LJShafer, and he would become known as the Darkwight The Aspect cackled within the stranger. [quote]"[i]I am all that is death and mayhem and silence, the inevitable smiting of all that is brilliant and fleeting[/i]" Suddenly the man was thrust upward into the air by an unseen force, glowing and crackling with dark energy as he levitated. His once piercing green eyes now stabbed with verdant fury and glowed with the power of ages. "[i]There shall be no charm again while my minions scorch the land[/i]" Screeching bolts of impossible dark flew from the man's eyes at LJShafer, barely missing him as he dodged; he was unharmed. [quote]Ehhh! I'm unharmed...[/quote] "NOOOO I won't let you hurt anyone!" The bolts became wild flying in every direction, far away a bolt grazed the fuselage of very temperamental Toaster, piloting an atomic mech; but another struck the warrior scholar on his left shoulder sending him sprawling at first, but recovering quickly. [quote]wtf was that for! Don't make me bring my blade into this; when there is too much darkness in the universe, light must cast it out. And I will, gladly.[/quote] The warrior drew his flaming blade. "[i]I am the darkest aspect of the deep, I am the end of all things I am woe i am despair i am longing i am pain I-[/i]" [quote]We happen to disagree.[/quote] The mysterious third warrior stepped forward clad in only a fiery patterned robe, formless, incomplete. Awaiting something... "[i]An Unbeliever?[/i]" [quote]We know. Do not question the light that shines in places you cannot reach, mortal. [spoiler]A false sense of power.[/spoiler][/quote] "[i]An ADVERSARY! KNOW THIS NOBLE WARRIOR I AM ALLLL THAT IS THE BLACK OF NIGHT you will-! what? foolish knave! you dare betray me?![/i]" "I haave more coontrol than you thoought" "[i]your attempts are futile![/i]" The Aspect hurled more dark-bolts, but in the blink of an eye, the Noble was out of harms way "NO! you will listen... TO ME!!!" The man who would be known as Darkwight spoke; he had seen enough. Calling out the Aspect of Darkness, he uttered a name to give the beast a form. "You are Aod: Elder Aspect of Darkness! And you don't stand a chance..." Suddenly, the power of The Aspect poured from every opening and pore of the mans body, a swirling chitinous mass it took a form above the barrens of Bnet" (Description link: [url]https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/250978644?sort=0&page=0[/url]) From over a distant hill, 7 warriors came, observing the shocking sight. There names were: deatheater200, Ronin, Austin Garnet (Solargeo) Toaster, [Slot still open], [Slot still open], and Rezyl Azzir. They united beneath the rising and writhing monster, with the three heroes that drew out the beast; All of them gazing in disbelief. Suddenly the Aspect was moving, slowly at first then at greater speed, towards the gleaming forests and rolling hills Of Narnia, It's Tendrils reaching toward fresh meat to consume, and grow in Power.
