Big Bad Offer

Tenuk was rather confused as he reached the private training area for his team, Xeno Dessaron One. The lights were all off, and there was a strange, meaty, rotten smell coming from somewhere in the room. However, he could definitely hear movement, and as Tenuk opened the door, the lights abruptly snapped back on. “Heya, … Read more

Assorted Messages

Deathbringer: Hey guys, you two alright? It’s rare to see you online, Retvik. Flamebearer: Considering what is going on, I felt like I needed to hear a friendly voice. Or at least read one. Deathbringer: Fair enough. Is everything alright? Souldrainer: No. Something possessed Galyn, made him attack us to the point of nearly murdering … Read more

Going Elsewhere

“I swear, you Thantir are fucking cursed!” The fact that Tah, a normally rather calm being who very rarely said anything worse than ‘darn’, had just loudly cursed and thrown something across the room, was a sign that things were certainly not well. His recently repaired left arm was missing again, and one of his … Read more

Brutal Insanity

Litvir wasn’t quite sure where his lower intestine was. To be fair, he didn’t particularly need it any more, he hadn’t eaten solid food in at least a month, but it was currently missing, having been torn out by the rampaging beast that abruptly broken free in the middle of a mental scan, in which … Read more

Third’s Rage

As Retvik made his way down to the cockpit, he was feeling very unsure about things. In his hand was Galyn’s personal communicator, which he had been scanning through for the last ten minutes. The plan was supposed to have been simple, to call Galyn’s old companions, his other Thirds, and get them to help … Read more

Stabilizing Failure

“I hate this body…” Tah clicked and crackled as his old, battered form jolted back into life. His current body was currently lying on the ground, since Tah’s Krana-brain wasn’t powering it, but considering what had just happened with Galyn going insane and attacking everyone, they needed someone that Galyn recognized. And, according to Litvir’s … Read more

Sudden Madness

Green, slightly corrosive goo covered the walls and the room’s occupants as Galyn exploded back to life, pulling himself out of his healing cocoon. After taking a few moments to remember how to be alive and conscious, the elder Decay Lord scanned his surroundings, trying to work out where he was. “Did that happen last … Read more

Inconvenient Message

“So… you have brothers?” Sini asked as she inspected the large pile of bones and teeth that Arkay had brought to her. “Technically? Yes. But that’s not important.” Arkay had been trying to get Sini to focus on the task at hand, but she was insisting on asking all sorts of questions. “But Kinisis only … Read more

The Banikan Team

While tour guides were common around the Great Dessaron Battle Arenas, there was one area where visitors were forbidden to go, where challengers feared to tread and only the bravest of house fighters were allowed to visit. The Panicked Wardens was a heavily barricaded area where the Banikan house fighters of the Great Arena trained … Read more

Mass Fainting

“Hey, uh, General Retvik, is Relkir going to be alright?” Retvik grunted as he glanced down at Teekay, the almost silver-skinned Skyavok that had been hovering outside this bedroom door for a while now. “Yes, Relkir will be fine. But please do not call me ‘General’, I have no right to use that title.” Teekay … Read more

Adaptation Overload

“Alright now, deep breaths.” Relkir did as he was told, taking long, drawn out breaths. But Relkir was currently not in reality. He was trapped within his own mind, lying in a field of fluffy grey clouds, staring up into a pitch black sky littered with small, red points of light. As to why Relkir … Read more

Suddenly Online

Litvir slammed the door to his personal quarters, then double-checked to make sure it was locked, before making his way to his desk, where his tablet was lying. As he opened the tablet up, a wave of dread washed over Litvir, wondering what horrible messages he’d find. However, as his eyes scanned the screen and … Read more

Ceti Asteri

“Hey, Gah, when you accepted this job, did they mention that they were a Ceti Asteri?” The blue-painted Cleanser popped his head into the cockpit of the Thantir Two, where his sibling Koh was sitting, alongside the Decay Lord Retvik and two Decaylings, Tenuk and Tahvra, who had been making sure that they were going … Read more

Late Night Confessions

“What are you doing awake?” Retvik had been meaning to get that creaky middle step fixed for years. It had always bothered him whenever he got up for his early morning snacks, and while it hadn’t woken any of his new housemates, the death god lounging in the living room had definitely heard him. “I … Read more
