[OOC: The way this works is simple; you get ONE post PER character! Go nuts in your post, let your character cut lose(within the rules of course lol), and have fun! No word min or max word limits, but there’s no end true end to this battle, the thread ends when no one else posts anymore. You can say that your character saw another doing whatever they are doing, but, there’s little reason to interact, because, neither of those characters will post again hehe So, have fun, I’m curious to see what happens here, if you have questions, please PM Sirona or find me on Discord.]


The attack had started suddenly and with very little warning. An army of orcs had appeared on the horizon to the North of the village and had come charging across the Plains. However, the village wasn’t alone. While this unnamed village had been started by folks who had moved away from the city of Adeluna, the orc army had pushed a large group of Boharan Tribespeople into the area only a few hours before the orc arrived. This was all the warning that the village and any of the visitors received before the orcs arrived.

Bianca had been in the village only because they were passing through the area and ended up staying here for the night. Now, with a fight literally on the horizon, Bianca had a chance to get out of the village or stand and fight and help protect it. Weighing the options Bianca had chosen to stand and fight, with the addition of the tribespeople and, what seemed to be a large group of visitors hanging around, the blood mage figured they had a chance to save the village. It was unclear on how large the orc army was, but, they weren’t known to be that bright, and would eventually run if they started taking too many losses.

Now with the fighting started, Bianca was in the thick of it and probably enjoying themselves a little too much.

It didn’t take long for the villagers and tribespeople around Bianca to learn to give them some room. With Bianca large magma scythe spinning around carving up orcs a couple at a time and the fires that they were starting among the orcs, Bianca needed room to work. A couple of orcs charged Bianca and they replied with a shout and a hand thrusted out, and a gout of fire blasted from Bianca’s hand to the orcs. They screeched in pain as they started to burn alive, but in their rage they continued their charge anyway.

Smiling Bianca spun their scythe around in a few quick attacks and a few parts from the orcs fell to the ground, still on fire. From their left an orc came at Bianca and they turned in time to dodge the swinging mace that would have crushed their should if it had connected. When Bianca noticed that this orc already had a heavy gaping wound in its chest, when it got close enough Bianca reached out and grabbed it’s arm for a moment. In that moment Bianca unleashed a hideous blood magic spell, enhancing the damage the orc had already taken in a rebounding affect. The gash, while it had been bad already, now became far deeper and the orc stumbled and fell as it started to bleed out faster.

The fire mage then had just enough time to bring up their scythe and use the middle of the handle to block an incoming sword from an orc. It bellowed in their face and Bianca scowled in reply at it, opening their mouth to scream back, but instead breath out of a cone of fire into the orc’s face. It screamed in pain at the sudden fire and reeled back to try put the fire out, but that was enough time for Bianca to get that big scythe moving and slam the magma blade into the orc’s chest. It was dead instantly and started to fall as Bianca got the scythe’s blade out of it and spun it around.

There was a moment where no orc was coming at them, so Bianca looked around their immediate area to see how the others fighters were making out.

The sounds of people shouting awoke Ciara from her sleep. The room was simple and the only two-story home in the village. This room in particular happened to belong to the daughter of the village leader. Ciara looked over to the village leader's daughter who was still in bed with her. After blowing her a kiss, Ciara changed her clothes to a crystal blue gown that was as elegant as the moon itself. She looked over back to the bed and noticed the still asleep blacksmith, who'd also spent a night with them. After blowing him a kiss, she took her stuff and left the room. When she arrived downstairs, there was a flock of people in a panic, talking about some sort of orc attack. Any other person would have left the village to its own devices but Ciara wanted some more fun. She burst through the backdoor and headed to a spot with four tall strong trees. 

Her hand swirled with a blue magic as she reached up to touch the bark of one of the trees. Magic flooded the tree as it began to morph into a ent, a human-like tree. Once it had finished its transformation she did the same to the three other trees. It drained up her mana to bring them to life and to control them. Reaching into her bag, she pulled out a greater mana potion and drank that sweet liquid. She could feel the mana returning to her as she commanded one of the trees to pick her up and put her on the ent's shoulder. Ciara knew she couldn't be walking while using this much magic. The four tree ents began to walk towards the orcs with her directing their moves. This little spell was highly protected by the Onnen druids but she found one of them and….convinced them to teach it to her.

Ciara was mindful of the fire mage and kept her ents away from them. Burning magical trees would be useless. The first ent picked up a boulder and chucked it at a group of orcs. The boulder smashed into five of the orcs and crushed them while two managed to just barely get away from the incoming boulder. The second ent lift up its massive arms and slammed them down on three of the orcs, making the ground rumble from the impact. The third ent grabbed two orcs with its left hand and two with its right before throwing them as hard as it good. Ciara watched with delight as the four orcs were sent flying. But she knew that this powerful spell was quickly draining her mana. And the tree ents couldn't go far unless she wanted to loose control. That was why she couldn't control a fifth ent and was the reason the fourth ent was in charge of protecting her. 

"What GOOD boys I have." Ciara said. 

The fourth ent was stomping down on any orcs who was getting too get close. Ciara kept her eyes out for any orcs who looked smart. She didn't want them to get the bright idea of burning her trees down. The first of her tree monsters was still chucking boulders and rocks at the orcs. It managed to take out several small groups of orcs but she sent it a bit further in the group of orcs so it wouldn't accidentally hit one of the allies. Her second tree monster was swatting at the orcs like they were the worst of bugs. The third one was throwing orcs which was amusing but she needed the other two who were hitting harder. Ciara made the third tree monster jump then she stopped powering it with magic, causing the tree ent to reverse its transformation and turn back into a normal tree. The now normal tree hit the group of orcs it had been fighting and rolled down the battlefield, hitting anything in its path. Now she only had to worry about powering three giant trees. 

"For all of the village's allies, if you fight well I might give you a kiss." She called out with a mischievous smile. 

The entire time Ciara sat on one of the ent's shoulder and focused on powering her trees with magic and keeping up with them. She knew that eventually she would have to retreat from the battle and take time to rest. This would drain up all her mana but it was causing a massive amount of damage to the enemy. Ciara's trees became two when she was forced to leave the tree that had been smashing orcs. The boulder throwing ent was her strongest so she used it for as long as she could before letting it transform back into a tree. Each time the ents turned back, she had them roll into the battle field so even their transformations would cause damage. Now she was down to the last tree. She had the tree escort her away from the battlefield and the village. She couldn't be around the enemy once her magic was drained. Once they were safely away from the fighting, she allowed it to take root and transform back into a tree. But Ciara stayed in the branches of the tree and began to rest.
