Hello, this is the World of Matar! Where we tell grand tales, and also manage to fit in the odd complaint about what have you. But we love each other. Well most of us. Well, some of us. Well, one of us. Maybe.

Basically, here's how it goes down:

There's the General Discussion for anything, hence the "general". And the Introductions and Farewell section for, well, introductions and farewells.

There's TWoM RP with three sections, and a fourth one coming soon when the story demands it, for role playing, a Codex section for your questions, and some Guidelines.

There's the Fantasy Role Plays for all other original RPs (Role Plays), and not just fantasy but sci-fi and what not. Currently there is... nothing. Yeah. Kinda depressing.

There's the Fan Based RPs for when we want to RP either as people from games, books, or movies or base the RP off of said published work. Currently we have Final Fantasy I and I believe that Fate/Stay Night is getting started.

There's the Creative Writing with story time where residents can both write and read original stories from creepypastas to fanfictions to ramblings. And soon enough there may even be a Blog section there as well.

There's the Battle System section all on its own, this is a proto-system headed by Metal Neil and may one day be implimented into some RP. Or not. We're not sure about all that.

The Nerevarine and Zero enter the Mirage Arena and some kinda music plays in his head.

This formulated in his mind after the fifteenth cliffracer horde came after him.

And far from it for him to actually get the first blow, he decided that since everyone at anytime who has ever said "Make the first move" actually attacks the moment the conversation ends, the Dunmer was preparing all his vast counter measures against an assassin.

He almost wished he still had that Dwemer Jinksword and its paralyzing enchantment. But after the seventh time a bonelord reflected the enchantment onto him, he decided it was better to have it put away for good.

It has been a while since he's fought an assassin. The last time he did, he wondered, was it in the sewers or was it that grandmaster? Either way, they went down like punks, punks he says! He draws Keening and readies any magic he thinks is necessary and waits for Zero to move.

In the brief moment that Zero steps through the portal into the arena, she takes off her mostly superfluous cloak and throws it at the Nerevarine.

Note the use of the words 'mostly superfluous'. These are important, because while the cape provides nothing except minor protection from rain, the smoke bombs contained within explode once a small conjoined fuse burns down and sets them off.

This ruins the cape. Quite completely. That smoke just won't wash out, and it's also ablaze. But the end result is that the area is thrown into darkness as the arena forms, and Zero leaps into the air.

Zero stands on a rooftop as the arena finishes forming.

As the smoke clears, throwing blades rain down on the Nerevarine from on high.

With the smoke clouding his eyesight, the Nerevarine was incredibly vulnerable to the knives raining down from the sky. He was hit several times and ran into a side alleyway. He tore off his boots and greaves that sapped his speed and acrobatics for various challengey reasons and jumped from wall to wall onto a rooftop.

Not seeing Zero yet, he took out a slip of paper that he had enchanted to Detect Humanoid. Upon activating it, he saw Zero's outline in a purplish foggy way and jumped towards her. He readied his magic and shot down a blizzard/lightning storm cone down at her.

Interesting. The enemy seems to have the ability to cast magic using pre-prepared writings.

It wasn't a medium her people traditionally used. Oh well.

The lightning snow storm thing was probably of greater concern to her anyway. There are no higher points to ascend to to get out of the road. So it would have to be another rooftop. She launches herself across the gap as the spell strikes the rooftops, scorching and freezing it in equal measure.

She aims her arm towards him, and fires a small dart from a launcher on her wrist. Aphonia for silence should be sufficient.

She draws her blade. Would the spellweaver be as good at physical arts as magical ones?

The Nerevarine feels a small dart hit him as he lands on the rooftop. He tries following his storm up with a small fireball, but to his dismay he can't. I'm not out of magicka yet... did she silence me? He thought as he charged at her.

He drew Sunder and Keening and slammed the hammer at her midriff and using Keening to deflect the blade she's drawn from any counter attacks. If he couldn't use any magicka spells, he'd just have to bring the hammer down. Or just swing it side to side.

If she was a character in one of those trashy novels that she was always reading, Zero supposed she could raise a shield to block the hammer blow, or twist her blade in some fancy manner to avoid the preemptive parry and strike the hammer away.

That is of course, completely silly, and completely worthy of her contempt.

Instead, she gets knocked backwards by the blow, sent flying over an edge.

... Well really now, that was easy. We might as well call this one now, I'm sure nothing else is going to happen.

Oh wait, a screeching noise starts happening. It almost sounds like a wire of some sort being scraped across a stone surface. It is actually, it's a wire scratching across a stone surface. One end comes from the launcher that fired the dart, and the other is secured around the other elf's leg.

Let no one say that she's not fast.

The Nerevarine's sense of accomplishment at knocking Zero off the roof was shattered as he heard the wire screeching. He looked down at his leg and for a moment, the world froze for him. Several things flowed through his mind as he flew towards the edge, dropping Sunder and Keening on the rooftop.

He futilely grabs at the edge, but his armor and the awkwardness of his sudden movement causes his grasp to slip. He twists himself towards Zero as they fell and he wished he could use that Storm move again, but even if he wasn't silenced, that spell drained too much for him to do it again so soon.

Not wanting to try to use Trueflame on Zero for fear of it dropping out of hand, The Nerevarine shifts and dives towards the elf. He aims Wraithguard and all its heavy gauntlet glory to slam into the assassin.

Zero looks down at her wrist and pushes a small button, cutting off the wire attaching her to the Nerevarine. It's served it's purpose well in dragging him off the roof and catching him by surprise.

A hand does go to the site of impact. Having a warhammer smashed into you does hurt, even if you're a highly trained assassin. Moreso in fact.

The Nerevarine seems ready to add to it too, diving towards her like a hawk with an outstretched gauntlet. She briefly considers her options. 'Your berserker-like approach to falling from the sky is not going to help you.' She even has a moment to give commentary.

Then she strikes against the wall behind her, digging her heels into the stonework. As they're designed for climbing, they tear into the stonework as she reaches out with her arms to hold onto the wall. Now facing her foe, and not falling out of the sky, she launches herself off of the wall and into the air.

For a moment, she imagines casting some kind of shadow over the elf below like a predator of the night of some sort. It's either the environment, or her influence, but either way she suppresses the very idea. It's just stupid.

She then dives down towards the Nerevarine, two blades extending from her wrists.

The Nerevarine's fist slams into the wall where Zero had been moments before. The force of the impact causes Wraithguard to get stuck in the wall. This being my own interpretation of Wraithguard and probably not actually canon, the gauntlet is stuck in the wall and instead of removing it, he cannot as it is welded to his hand.

It's the only reason I can justify it hurting you when you first put it on. Doesn't really make sense when you take it off then put it back on, but whatever. Point is, the Dunmer now has only one usable arm in order to defend himself from Zero's two wrist-blades.

The numbers do not match up, no matter how hard one tries. He does something thinkable, he allows himself to get stabbed by her blades. But in doing so, he is able to use his low power, low costing fire spell, aptly named Sun Burn. It being a touch spell, he needed to make contact with his hand and her body.

With her being so close, the Nerevarine charged his magicka and unleashed sun burn-y doom with his fist into her ribs with two quick jabs. If all else fails, he does have one last ace up his sleeve.

I can't believe it took two months to post this. Let's get to it.

Zero is struck in the torso by the flame burst attack, and sent flying backwards. She pulls herself up at the last moment and strikes the ground, sliding to a stop as she steadies herself.

She then looks up at the Nerevarine, still stuck in the wall. She then raises her hand, and a burst of darkness announces the arrival of her Greatbow.

She notches an arrow of Darkness, and takes aim, fully intending to just keep shooting him while he's stuck in the wall. Honour is as weak to being shot by arrows as everything else in the world.
