WM [42] Not a Mindless Animal

The hunters were not just running into danger haphazardly. In fact they would avoid any monster they could unless they saw a perfect opportunity to take it out quickly and with minimal risk. The horde was not their main concern at the moment. They needed to find the jeweled wing monarch before it...

WM [41] Head’s On A Swivel

Bjorn could taste the corruption of mana in the air as thick as honey to his senses. The monsters were on the last leg of the journey to the camp as Tanisha’s group followed Alfred to an elite unit of monster hunters. Bjorn noticed for the first time Alfred was in armor instead of his normal lo...

WM [40] The Armored Merchant

The monster hunters haggling with Joel finally gave in to his price with the pressure of the monster horde. They ran out of the shop cursing a few times about being ripped off.

“Hmm, a monster horde this close to town is rare.” Underrock said, with more irritation in his words than conc...

WM [39] Rowdy Monster Hunters

Bjorn found that there was a surprising lull throughout the past couple days, Tanisha spent most of the time with the cold infusion basin. Joel gave her a hundred ingots to infuse with various materials, the dreamweaver blood being one of them. Between cold infusion, potion brewing, and selling h...

SND [7] Hope I Can Swim

It wasn’t darkness, it was emptiness, a void in well… everything. It may sound like semantics but there is a difference between a large dark space even one that is infinite in size because darkness is a concept that one could envision. However a void blank of even the concepts of light in dar...

WM [38] Clearly Unimpressed

Bjorn didn’t expect the wifwolf to actually be a part of the training that night. He could literally taste her fear when they arrived in her room. Tanisha didn’t seem bothered by her; she had already fully accepted whatever decision Joha made in regards to Adelheid. Tanisha really didn’t tr...

WM [37] The Stronger Path

The room was quiet, save for the constant sniffling sobs of the young woman sitting on the floor with her back against the wall. Nightfall was creeping in, the last remnants of daylight fading into the encroaching shadows. Though a window and a door offered the illusion of freedom, she knew there...

Chronicles of a Scalebound Sage: Wandmaker

Bjorn, Tanisha, Joha, and the Isi were trapped within the walls of Lavi. Ingrid and Loki were desperately searching for the last heir of the Isi house to secure the city and complete Salstar’s Show of Power. However, they failed, and the group ...

WM [36] Wickedly Sharp Blades

Bjorn and Tanisha did not care to watch the reunion of the werewolf leader and his son which was handled largely by the Jackrabbits. The werewolf pack leader was questioned by the council before they were made to leave. Despite the excitement of the morning things settled down quite rapidly.

WM [35] Mercy Runs Thin

Alaric Strider knelt down in front of the stall of the very same person that his pack tried to kill her familiar. Town guards and even the Jackrabbits had come to ensure he did not run away. There was suspicion he was working with the druids or some other nonsense. He lost good people to the hydr...

WM [34] As if Nothing Happened.

The intricate design He had set in motion, carved into the very fabric of this Lower Plane was his Will. He could feel His Will influence the world playing out as He had planned. Then like a knife he felt the presence of another's Will scrape against his own. One of His creations had broken free,...

WM [33] It Tasted… Good

There was an explosion of movements as Tanisha redirected her own swinging bardiche. Sabec thought he was being sneaky by sobering himself up over the course of their conversation. Tanisha knew what he was doing and decided to play along. The gnoll man was worse for wear and she wanted what she w...

SND [6] Agony and Rage

Freja and Bjorn rolled down Thrand’s back, his massive wing creating a leathery ramp to the rocky ground below. The descent was anything but gentle; sharp scales left small cuts and the sheer speed of the fall made the inevitable rocks at the end all the more painful.   The fall was not pl...

WM [32] Die on Your Feet

The small hunting cabin had only one window, allowing just enough light to pierce through the thick curtain to cast a dim glow on the room’s grimy interior. It was a pitiful, forgotten place, all but abandoned after a monster attack had killed its previous owner.  There was a strong smell ...

SND [5] Shai

Bjorn and Freja swallowed hard as they saw the scene before them. The courtyard was full of spectators, all of whom were collectively holding their breath at the scene before them. Many of them were not Freja’s race and this would have been their first time seeing a dragon. They would have hear...

WM [31] We Found Him

Tanisha felt as though she kept finding herself in the middle of events she wanted no part in, and had no power to control. Life with her family was fine up until it was discovered that she was a wizard. It turned out that the diagnosis as a wizard was wrong but she did not find that out until ye...

SND [4] Failure of The Salstars

Freja felt as though she might faint as she turned from the door. She had to clasp her hands together to stop from shaking, her eyes glistened from unshed tears. The last time she saw him was four years ago when he sent her here to exile her from family affairs. The transition wasn’t pleasant n...

Random Lore Familiars Pt. 3

Humanoid Familiars The Blood Pact

Humanoid familiars, formed through Bonded Blood Pacts between sentient species offer unique advantages and challenges compared to traditional animal familiars. While some cultures view such bonds with skepticism or even revulsion, considering them as infr...

SND [3] Social Decorum

The light of Bjorn’s third day as uh, whatever he was, started with a squeal of excitement as Freja watched his eyes slowly flutter open. She was watching him from her desk at the far end of the room. Bjorn knew the girl was completely enamored with him by how much attention she gave him. His b...

SND [2] Dorsehal Academy

Freja woke up excited to see how her familiar was doing. She barely got any sleep as she wanted to spend every waking moment the previous night with him or her? She still needed to complete the blood test to determine what sex Bjorn was. There were actually a lot of unknowns. She had no idea what...

WM [30] The Need To Commune

The morning started the same way it normally did. Joha led Tanisha and Bjorn through stretches and breathing techniques. Followed by a detailed accounting of all of their goods and sales. Tanisha didn’t sleep the previous night and instead took a concoction she made to keep herself awake. Bjorn...
