| Welcome to Imythess, the border between dreams and reality. We hope you enjoy your visit. Imythess is a creative writing board where you narrate the story of a character in the medieval land of Imythess, on the planet Chaon. Each topic is an opportunity for your character to interact with the world and its peoples by cooperatively writing pieces of a story with other members, one post at a time. We call this role-playing, because you assume the identity of your character as if it were your own. In order to play, you must register an account for each character you would like to write about, and begin their tale by filling out their basic profile information: Race (human, elf, demon, etc.), class (warrior, mage, etc.), physical appearance, and any other personal details you would like to describe. You are also encouraged to come up with some background history information for what your character's life has been like up to the point at which their story in Imythess begins. There is no approval process or application required to join, so long as you follow the rules then you are free to write whatever character details you choose. Registration is simple, fast, and completely free. Create a character now! If you're already a member, you can log into your account below: |

Brant jumped a foot, his eyes opened wide and his heart skipped a beat. "You fool! I don't want an army of undead attacking us!" Brant yelled his anger overrode his sense of fear of the vampire, and even more so of the zombies around them. He quickly lowered his voice and glanced around, the shuffling was coming closely, he swore if this man got them attacked he would..Probably attack him and end up food, but even still. |

Nero didn't here the boy's insult against him due to him laughing so heavily to himself, but he did manage to catch the part about the army of undead. That was exactly why Nero was there, give or take. To kill swathes upon swathes of mindless zombies, it was exceptionally liberating and made him feel powerful. "An army of undead? Is there really that much?" he said through gritted trying not to laugh. "I guess it's gonna be one hell of a party then, eh?" |

"So the rumors say..." Brant replied to the mans question about the army of undead. He drew an arrow and knocked it, looking around the cemetery with shifty eyes until something happened, which he really hoped it didn't. The shuffling sound grew closer, and closer...There is no way in hell I'm going to die here, he thought. |

The shuffling sound had now become apparent to Nero himself as he had finally put his mind to listening out for it. He watch, amused, as the boy knocked an arrow and began to examine around him for any sign of zombies presumable. Taking a small white object from within his pocket which became apparent to be a cigarette, the vampire struck a match and used it to light the cigarette. He then slowly but with a sense of grace drew his sword from within his sheath and took a slight stance. "Slow buggers, eh?" |

Brant heard the mans voice, and th question he posed was a good one. "Yes." was Bran'ts only reply, and he did so without looking at the man who could have just caused them their deaths. Even so, Brant now realized that he and this man, this vampire would have to work together, if either of them, but mostly Brant wanted to survive. |

Nero had sacrificed being on his lonesome once he had actually decided to pull whatever there were in the cemetery after him and the boy. Mostly of all, other than wanting to get into a fight himself, he wanted to see what the boy was capable of. "Maaaaan..." Nero muttered childishly as he looked around the area of the graveyard him and Brant were in carelessly. "These things are taaaking their time.... HURRY THE HELL UP GUYS! Let's get this party started." |

Brant noticed a shape appear off in the distance, Brant let loose the arrow that was currently knocked, and watched as it flew through the air towards the shadow. Brant couldn't tell if it had hit or not, not at this distance. But, considering the shape was still walking towards them, with its slow walk, Brant doubted his arrow had hit the things head, were he had aimed. So he shot another arrow, and this time the shape dropped to the ground, and just as it hit another shape appeared in the distance. |

Nero watched, amused, as the boy he was with decided to let a couple of arrows loose into somewhere into the cemetery, at a target which was out of sight for the vampire. Because of this he couldn't gauge the boy's ability, and simply would have to wait longer to find out. It seemed as if Nero himself would be doing most of the close-range fighting, due to him being... Well, a close-range fighter. |

Brant was slowly taking out a few zombies, but it seemed as though for everyone he killed, at least one more would appear shortly after, they were no longer dark shapes off in the distance, now Brant could almost make out features and genders, it seemed obvious to him that he would have to let this man who had attracted all of these zombies cover his back completely as he fired off arrow after arrow into the mist. ((...NOOOOO D= Wrong account..*Sad*)) |

Nero had begun to become aware of the large number of zombies which had started to conglomerate around the two's area, in order to... Well, come and eat them? Or whatever it was that zombies did... Would they eat Nero? They would eat the boy, that was for certain. But Nero was classed as undead, so if he just left the boy, would the zombies simply overwhelm and eat him? It was a good question. A question which Nero wanted to know the answer to. However, it meant he would be doing no fighting... And that was no fun. So for now the boy was safe. Readying his sword, he waited for the zombies to come into range, whilst the boy continued to pick off those who were in front of him. ((Idiot. >:C)) |

Brant kept firing arrows, with the zombies being as close as they were he barely missed, which was good because he was swiftly running out of arrow. Luckily, he had filled his quiver to the fullest before entering the horrible graveyard, and so he would be able to sustain this level of speed for quite some time still, but even still it would be a good idea to at least try to maintain ammo, and so he only fired at those close enough, until one or two got within range of that mans sword. |

Finally, after what felt like an age, and after hearing many a number of arrows being loosed from the boy beside him, two zombies at toughly the same time reached the vampire who had been patiently waiting for their arrival, blade in hand. The first of the two was dispatched easily with a slash which separated the upper part of its body from just below its shoulders away from the rest, and the second one was simply decapitated by the vampire. They were slow and not very powerful, but there were hell of a lot of them. |

As more and more undead closed in on the two, Brant quickly realized that soon they would be overrun, there was no way they could just stand there and take out all these foes, Brant turned his head away from the countless enemies approaching to whisper to Nero "I think we may need to leave soon!" He whispered it quickly and urgently, by now even more zombies had gotten close enough to Nero's blade. |

One. Two. Three. Many zombies were by now piling into the area with the two men, all eager to try and get a piece of their flesh. But Nero was prepared and was valiantly dispatching the Devil's minions one after the other was relative calmness. He knew his way around the cemetery fairly well, and knew how to access ways into the Black Mist Mansion which lay underneath. Being a member of the Shadow Society, the zombies wouldn't actually attack him, but he didn't want the boy to know this, so he continues to dispatch the zombies unfairly... It was enjoyable. "Follow me then." He muttered in response to the boy as he easily sliced a zombie open and made his way over towards a large tomb. It stored a long, winding staircase which lead down into a dungeon, which would eventually lead to the Black Mist Mansion. It was something Nero had been shown by Christian... That pathetic creature which called itself a vampire. |

Brant followed Nero over to a large, rather plain tomb, once opened a large staircase that wound around in a circle the deeper it went was revealed. Brant didn't know were it lead, or what would be in store for them as they went down, but even so it was better then standing here with an army of undead attacking them, and so he followed Nero. |
