RP Tavern Quest: The Catacombs
Koali:
*Edges closer to the doorway and tosses in a light ball.*
Carn:
(Carn) "Well now, that's........unpleasant." There are several skeletons in the room, all in labcoats. Some are strewn at the door, while one is laying over the worktable.
(Ingur) "From the notes, it did seem likely not everyone made it out. There is some equipment i see though. If Koali doesn't mind some more weight, we should be able to set up shop as soon as Shaded can get the supplies."
(Carn) "Alright, fan out. Look for useful or valuable items, but try and be respectful." notices a small journal clutched in the grip of the scientist on the desk. Taking it he see's it is the same writing as in the notebook with the formula. "Ahh, this explains why my great grandfather was able to make Bloodsong. It seems a small portion of hemovibrium was transported to another installation in what is now Anglea. It seems likely he never knew the recipe himself, but found some notes on how to shape it, as well as the metal itself. I may as well show you why its call hemovibrium, if we are going to make more."
Unhooking Bloodsong from his belt and laying it on the desk, he then unsheathes a small knife, the kind used in hunting. Cutting his palm so that a few drops land on the axe he motions for the others to watch. At first the blood is still, the it begins shaking, though there are no tremors. Along with that, there is a low humming sound in the air, different then the tone when the metal is struck, and when it is spun through the air.
"Hemovibrium, Bloodsong, it reacts to blood in a way that agitates the blood. A cut from this metal leaves an odd and unpleasant feeling. The blood remains agitated for awhile, causing tremors to go through the body. Effectively throwing there fighting capabilities off. Prolonged contact with enough blood creates an eerie harmony," allowing more blood the drip onto the axe, strengthening the noise "the vibrating blood, the song of blood and metal. That is why it is named thus." wipe blood off the axe and hooks it back on his belt, then bandages his hand back up.
(Ingur) "Do you have to act macho all the time? Give it here, I'm better at this then you." grabs his hand and bandages much better than Carn.
Koali:
"At least he didn't pee on it, that would have been unsuitable for everyday reading."
*Opens a large chest.*
"Huh. I guess they left a bunch of Songsteel unused. Look at all this!"
*The chest is full of Songteel scraps and ingots.*
"Oh, it's SO TEMPTING! I just wanna build a skywhale call right now! But if I do, I might make the whole cave system collapse. Speaking of which..."
*Goes to the center of the room and puts up a brace.*
Boi-Crunch!
*Looks down and sees a skeleton whose skull was, until recently, not crushed by a spring loaded pillar.*
"Yeugh, sorry about that."
Carn:
(Carn) groans "Koali please, anyways this is a difficult metal to work. I'd rather we make armor and weapons first. Imagine bullets made of this stuff, they'd be armor piercing rounds, Put bullets made from this into a gat, and a galleon will lose its armor in no time. Just store it for now Koali, I know how to work the metal, those notes were in the family. may as well just take the chest too."
(Ingur) goes over to a cabinet and opens it "Well aren't you beautiful." grinning she removes an officer's sabre made of hemovibrium "Perfectly balanced and razor sharp, I think I'll keep it. There's also some hammers and a few tongs back here, along with an anvil. Koali if you can carry these aswell, things will go a lot faster."
(Carn) looking at Koali "Im going to ask you to not try and make something right away. This is a difficult alloy, its not like iron or brass. It requires extreme heat, and a lot of brute strength to bend, let alone be made into something of use."
Koali:
*Walks over to the smithing equipment and picks up a small pair of shears and a pair of pliers, and works for a moment before turning to Carn and holding out a tiny ship resembling the one below.*
"You were saying?"
*Stores the smithing equipment.*
