Re: Embattled Forest (ToC PvP Arena)
Senka was surprised when she found the woman who was the source of the footsteps she had heard. It was unusual for her to encounter someone shorter than herself—and green at that. She had expected another of the typical warriors she had grown accustomed to in this place. They came in various shapes and sizes, but they mostly tended to follow some typical trends.
"
Hm. What are you then?" Senka pondered aloud, twirling the knife between her fingers. She had seen green people before, several of the warriors she'd seen in the hall were big and green—orcs, she was pretty sure, though she'd never seen one in person. This place was a lot like back home in that sense. Lots of people of wildly differing looks and sizes. After living among humans for so long, she wasn't used to such variety any more. "
Well, yes, of course. That is what we do here, is it not? We fight."
"
I wonder what you taste like... or perhaps I should play with you a little first?" Senka wasted no time preparations as she continued her slow approach until she was directly across a small clearing from the small woman, a barely visible miasma rising up from the ground and surrounding her body. She waited for the goblin to do the same, as were the rules she was told about these fights, but the moment her opponent took a step towards her Senka's hand shot out, a trio of black daggers flying towards her foe.
"
Hmph... is that all?" She shook her head as she watched all three strike true, not only piercing the green woman's light armour, but knocking her back into one of the thick webs surrounding the area as well. Senka's ears twitched as she listed for any sign the the creatures who had created these webs had been alerted, but heard nothing for the moment. That meant that she had time. Usually she simply killed her opponents, taking her reward from their bodies directly, but she was feeling a little curious. She had come across a few battles which had already concluded, seen the warriors who chose to take the defeated as their prize. A few had even brought them back to the feast hall afterwards.
There was nothing that she could not do to the woman in front of her, a thought which set off her sadistic side rather quickly. There was no need to rush, though. Death was not permanent here, but it would certainly end her chances at some fun, and her knives had already done a number on the woman. She approached carefully, but with purpose, avoiding any other hanging webs as she walked, her dress swishing back and forth with each step, and her tail giving away her eagerness as it began to sway slowly behind her as well.
"
Well, this is convenient, isn't it?" She gave one of the thicker strands of the web holding the goblin a tug, testing its strength, before drawing one of her larger knives. They were all made from darksteel, their sharpness beyond what an ordinary tool could achieve, so even if they were designed for throwing they would serve her purposes just fine. "
Now stay still would you? I wouldn't want to hurt you too much..." With those words the tip of the blade came to rest just below the goblin's neck, and with deliberate slowness she began to slice the woman's armour and clothes—if they could even be called that—down the middle.
A few more cuts to the sleeves let her tear the entire thing away, tossing it all into a shredded heap on the floor, before taking another look at what she had captured. She'd had to make sure the goblin was still stuck in the webs, but that had given her little trouble. While this realm seemed to heal the wounds of those who were defeated in battle but not killed, it did not restore their strength. "
But now that I've got you all at my mercy... what should I do with you? Hm..." Everyone she had seen had all seemed to go straight to sex. That was something Senka was familiar with, having grown up in Acheron, but had yet to actually experience. Perhaps now was the time to try? After all, it wasn't like the woman could go anywhere until she was done.
She ran the flat of the knife along the woman's cheek, just enough to tease with the deadly edge, but never cut. Enjoying the feeling of actually standing over someone for once, Senka brushed some of the goblin's hair out of the way with her free hand. Leaning down, and careful to keep any of the webs from touching her dress, Senka bit down on the goblin's long ear, just hard enough for her sharp teeth to break the skin, before pulling back and looking the goblin in the eyes. "
Normally, I'd just kill you, but I'm feeling curious. So you're going to help me out with a little experiment, and then I'll decide what to do with you."
