Castlevania RPG

[Lair Argyra]

Sometime in the 19th century, Dracula''s Castle has appeared once again. Monsters everywhere are haunting and attacking nearby villages. The time has come for a new team of Vampire Hunters to seal away the tides of darkness. Unfortunately, the gate to the Demon Castle remains closed.

A local library is kept safe from monsters, protected by some special wards. Inside, a librarian by the name of Olfeus researches on Necronology and has finally figured out the way to open the gate to Dracula''s Castle. The Vampire Hunters visit the old librarian for advice and guidance, and specifically in this case, to learn the way into Dracula''s Castle.

Anderis Crostino, a man with no true reason for living, has found himself at the entrance to an ancient library upon Dracula's sacred land, home to his legendary castle of pure evil and Hell's infinite minions, Castlevania. He fears nothing and trusts no one, he comes here for one intentional and self-focused reason, to recieve money. Anderis is a vagabond, or a mercenary for hire, and with his evergrowing danger in life and work, he has become more demanding as a killer. Now he finds himself torn in his neverending struggle between the continuation of assassination, and suicide... He stares coldly at the door dimly lit by the nightfire of the luminating moon, and walks foward. He now chooses to push on through murder and living, and see another day. However if he wanted to witness what he would so see in these upcoming events, he may have taken his life already.

*Vishno once again took the open road after his last adventure. After a few days of wondering through forests, plains and mountains, he found a strange figure crossing his path. After sensing that the creature was nothing more than a vampire his immediate reaction was to hunt it down but, before he could even breathe, the mysterious figure already fled from the scene. Even though he eventually caught up to him, or so he thought, he only found a cave with an awful stench of Vampire coming from it. He didn't even care if this was a trap, his senses, or his chakram, always warned him if the situation at hand was more than he could handle and so he marched on. After going through for barely a minute, he fell dizzy and went under a deep slumber. When he finally woke, he found himself in a strange place.*

Vishno: What brought me here? What happened?

*After looking around he found a gloomy scene in front of him. A dark and mysterious castle was in the distance and a library was the only building close to him. The only thing he saw at the library was a strange man in front of the door as he opened the door and walked through it.*

Vishno: Maybe someone can give me some answers there. What else do I have to loose right?

*And so he hurries towards the library, not knowing the big adventure he's about to step into, or the people he will meet here.*

Lyra looks around. She some how ended up inside a library. Wasn't she outside the castle a few minutes ago? She shrugged not know what the heck was going on. She carried a cross bow in her hand. She was a bit nervous. It has been a few months since she has gone hunting for things that aren't considered human. She walks slowly toward the door to her right. She sees a figure approaching her. She holds her cross bow up ready to shoot when needed to. She awaits to see who is approaching her.

*And so Vishno opens the door and goes through the threshold. His eyes, used to the dark by now, see the same man from before approaching a woman further down. He sees she's holding a crossbow at the mysterious man. Not knowing who these people are but, at the same time sensing they're not evil, he feels he should do something before an accident occurs. Vishno steps forward and...*

Vishno: Hey! Who are you people? We're all human here are we not?  

[KoruKinshi]

*Quietly walking through the forest, he carries many heavy burderns on his shoulders...he lost the love of his life to Chaos, and lost his best friend to darkness as he sacrificed his life for him...*

. o O ( And now I am all that's left...why...why must my life be so harsh...if I could only just rest and relax...to be in peace for once...no death...no despair...just peace... )

*But such is not his path...for wherever there is darkness, he appears; to be the light that pierces through, where there is chaos, he will bring order. The image of his father's killer...the one who has killed all the guardians before him...the same one who took the life of his love...he will pay. He will pay and the retribution of three millenia will wreak havoc upon the creation of chaos once the fateful meeting is set, but until then, he moves forth, protecting those who are in need*

*Koru looks up at the castle, the hair on the back of his neck raising ever so slightly* .... *He could sense the darkness coming from it, and knew that this was a 'famous' evil, if you will. He heard many stories of the castle that would reappear every century...of the legend of the vampire hunters who struck it down along with it's master. Certainly people he would be honored to meet.*

"....I wonder if they're here now. Either way...it looks like I will be occupied here for some time."

*He shifts the sheath of his sword a little and moves forward towards the library, seeing that someone has just walked in. Their auras are all different, but their intentions are all the same. They are here on a mission with the same goal*

"Well then...time to introduce myself..." *He heads towards the front door*  

[Lady Lunar Phoenix]

"We've got a job for you... Go to this location and all will be explained..." Muttered Tarot to herself as she looked up at the name listed and the road. Then from there she wandered around till she finally found a few barriers.
Well this had to be it.
Rephrase that.
It was *it* or it was going *down*.
She had more important things to do then find strange libraries. Well she thought she did.
She knocked on the door before walking in. "Public library public use." She muttered before shuffling her deck.

"Hi! I'm here to speak with a smart guy who has a lot of books... Something about killing time or something..." she looks around at all the books, and people.  

[KoruKinshi]

*He slowly walks into the library, looking at the grandscape. He sees the many other faces in the library, but decides to remain silent as he walks a little deeper in. He's one not to necessarily speak, unless spoken to*  

[chippbogard]

Lyra points her cross bow at everyone in the room. " I dont know who any of you are, but if you try anything funny i have an auto fire on this thing and ive used it many times in the past! " Lyra looks at the guy who was the only one to speak to her so far.
She takes a deep breath. " My name is Lyra. Who are you?"
She kept her view on the other guy in front of her. He knew that someone else was in the room, but her blind left eye limited her view. She wasn't able to fully scan the area with her attention put all on two other people. She awaited for any of the others to speak before she decided if she was gonna fire or not.  

[Lair Argyra]

An old man comes from the back of the library, apparently annoyed.
"What is all this ruckus?! Sheesh! This is a library, keep your voices down!"
He grumbles under his breath and grabs a book titled 'Illiad' firmly, with the intention to toss it at the next person who speaks loud.

(OOC: The library is outside the castle and kinda far from it.)  

[Lady Lunar Phoenix]

Tarot walks up to the older guy and gently prodded him with a finger. "Say... Are you supposed to give me a mission? My boss said that there was a smart guy with lots of books here who's supposed to give me one," she inquires in a whisper.  

[hypnocrown]

Vishno whispers: Could everyone please calm down? Why not just start with everyone introducing themselves? Lyra already started so allow me to go next. My name is Vishno Derante and I am a vampire hunter like my father before me. I think we're all here for a reason but, I do not know what that reason is. I can only guess that we all came here for a similar purpose but...

*Vishno steps toward Tarot as he notices she possesses some kind of familiar clothes and what seems to be a deck of cards*

Vishno raises his voice a little: Excuse me, you have knowledge of magic do you not?  

[KoruKinshi]

*Koru silently listens to the conversations going on around him, regarding the old man with a single nod, maintaining his silence*

. o O ( It seems we were all brought here....probably for the same reason....So I won't be going in alone after all... )

*He crosses his arms slowly, taking in a deep sigh and letting it out*

"What of it?" she asks glancing at him while still shuffling.
