《RE skeleton》Chapter 9

Advertisement

My worst foe the sun rose. It began to illuminate the wooden castle I had just defended. Bodies were everywhere. Gore brains and pieces of bones littered the castle. Well I was not going to have to clean this up. Time to find out what I could do.

I checked the summoning options there were two extra. Summon Skeleton mage and summon greater spirit. I entered the keep where it was dark and tried my new summoning spells. I summoned up a ice mage skeleton for 25 mana.

A basic mage skeleton

Next i reached out and created a combination I created a ice mage using the ice skeleton base spell.

Greater ice Mage skeleton level 100 hp 900 mana 600

weakness to flame. Immunity to cold damage.

summon lesser ice golem Summon skeleton warrior

I summoned a void mage and death mage skeleton. But found i was unable to create a greater void mage skeleton or greater death skeleton. I ordered them to practice there magic on a stone target. I would adsorb them before leaving and gain there experiences of firing there magic. I had the greater ice golem practice summoning the lesser ice golem.

Next I checked the summon greater spirit summoning spell. It was a bit of a surprise. The description was interesting to say the least.

Greater spirit. A wailing spirit that distracts enemy's.

The greater spirit can be summoned with various attributes depending on the skill of the summoner.

Extra abilities that can be given sonic wail, cold aura, minor fear aura, unclothed distraction and possession ability

I examined the possession ability

The ability of the spirit to merge with another being. This destroys the spirit. Once merged it forms a new being. Spirits can take possession of dead bodies also. Once inside the dead body you can use

a reanimate spell on the corpse. The result is a stronger undead. The body base class can be used by the new undead. A undead knight can become a undead zombie knight, undead skeleton knight or undead ghoul knight for example. Sonic wail, cold aura, minor fear aura can be developed by the merged being

This was going to be a help. Or it would be once i could summon up a spirit with the possession ability. Right now I did not have the spell in my memory. I was going to have to find a necromancer to teach me that spell. It was to bad that I had the adventures beheaded still the death knight i had summoned had not formed yet. If I could find the right spells i could enhance him before the summon spell finished.

Attention all dark creatures

Laura's dark crusade is now hiring. Horde points will be awarded for joining. Even now cities are burning. 55% of the standing force of good in the local region are dead. The summoning spell for the demon princess Aria the damned and unrepentant has begun

Well that was not a good sign. There was no way Laura was capable of doing all that. And where was my back up. I changed into a new robe. And took a look at my equipment. I was going to have top get a decent melee weapon a staff or spear or something. Swords were effective but i was super strong. A mace or 2 perhaps aimed with my super strength would smash straight threw shields.

I waited for my backup to arrive. It was taking them longer than expected. I created a couple more

Greater ice Mage skeletons and had the archer skeletons stack the bodies and body parts in the keep. Then the skeleton mages cast cold spells on the bodies. This would keep them relatively fresh

One of my Archer skeletons notified me that Lion was approaching on a horse. I released the ice swarm on the gates and moved forward. Lion was covered in mud and had increased in level from 151 to 155. He stared at me “You changed your name to the desecrater ha. They did not have nothing better Larry, Joe, Simple Simon or Idiot Skeleton? Anything but that”

“They are slaughtering each other. The nobles have taken the loss of the good paladins as a chance to settle scores. I am not sure of the bigger picture but it looks like the forces of evil are routing the forces of evil.” Well it did sound like something that humans would do. “Well Witchlord sent out a squad to deal with the first group of adventurers. The rest were to ambush the adventures after they had finished up. Ronan was not around to counterman the orders. So I had to wait ”

It took a moment to sink in. Witchlord had written me off. Well i was still alive and pissed. I had summoned that idiot. Normally I would have spanked him and there was a part in my children's adventure story about torture. But how exactly do you punish a undead. We do not fell pain or boredom. Well I did not fell boredom it was possible that a human turned into a undead would suffer from boredom. If I could I would experiment on the Witchlord to check.

I called my skeleton steed forward from where i had hidden it.

Report on failure of temple guard by high inquisitor Temperance.

In my over 400 years of life. I have never heard of a failure of the magnitude that occurred at the hands of a twelve year old girl. The forces of evil seemed to just come out of no where and smash the forces of good on a unprecedented scale. However there were mitigating factors involved in this fiasco. First of all the sheer maleficence and fury of Ronan can not be underestimated.

Ronan was shown to be a cunning and vicious foe. In the past appeared to be thorn in our side. A minor annoyance only. The files indicate there was a operation launched against him a few years ago. The results of this operation were satisfactory. A lesser operative managed to seduce Ronan and gain his trust. Some information was acquired. The file mentions the operative was killed.

The pertinent files have since been destroyed by Ronan. All we know is Ronan seems to have disappeared off the map for a few years and then began to rebuild slowly. What happened next is still unclear. Somehow Ronan ambushed a large contingent of good Paladins. Using foul trickery no doubt. He must have used this Laura as a cover to launch a dark crusade. He started by launching a assault with mercenaries at our biggest cathedrals and holy places. Using the dark points generated by such a acts he summoned the foulest of demons from the dark places of the earth.

He and laura must be stopped. No effort must be spared. Send every assassin that can be spared from the war effort after them. Place a bounty on there heads so high even the dark gods would be tempted to turn them in.

Letter home from stone.

Dear Mother,

I am sending a trunk home it is full of loot. Take it and get out of the village. Head somewhere safe. I hear Lauras skeleton is now called the desecrater. Head to his territory. Ronan has gone insane from fury. The mercenary scum we have helping us are afraid to even speak his name. Yesterday he killed 14 good paladins who were trying to slow assault into the merchant district. One of them was over level 400. Ronan killed him with a single blow. Then he smashed threw there ranks any who stood against him died in seconds. His level has risen to 370 in a few short days.

Some of the men whisper that Ronan is a god of war given human shape. There fear of him can almost be sensed. We are raiding every orphanage we come across. For some reason Ronan is looking threw their records. Fury and some dark force seem to animate him.

I am fine for the time being. But i am halve tempted to surrender to the forces of good. I keep thinking of the destruction I have witnessed. Some of my fellow trainees cry themselves to sleep. Even the older dark paladins seem subdued.

The only plus side is I have been able to loot a number of rich merchants houses. I also have increased in levels vastly. The mercenaries gave me four shares in out last looting mission. Due to my increase in levels i get a lot more dark quests. We robbed a rich noble who was trying to escape the city.

I got as part of the loot the dress from the fat nobles wife and daughters. Seriously they were ugly even before we stripped them naked. The material is of good quality and can be made into a number of dresses. The lord had a gold tooth. I took it out and you will find it in the trunk. We let the naked lord and his fat daughter loose in the poor slum area. The look on his face was priceless. Also i have the lords stash of art. Do not let father look at it. Do not destroy it either. The pictures will be worth a lot to collectors of such sleaze. There are three barrels of lesser loot as well. Mostly silver cups and such.

Laura diary

I keep having nightmares that my skeleton is coming to spank me. Ronan says that it will not happen. He says he has a daughter and we are going to meet her soon. But i keep thinking my skeleton is going to be mad and come and spank me.

So far i have learned this cool spell summon giant bull skeleton. We have been using them to clear the streets. I do not know how a giant bull that can clear the streets. But i have been told they are doing a great job. I was praised for summoning a giant ice boar. It could breath a ice fog which could freeze a person in place.

It is kind of boring i can not even go out and loot. Ronan says that i am to young. Gaa i am twelve. Stone and the others have such cool stuff. Yesterday I saw someone with a wooden rocking horse. Ronan made him give it to me.

Today was horrible. Four men burst into my room when i was sleeping last night. So I beat them all up. Seriously i am a little girl. That is all i can remember of what happened because i was hit with a sleep spell.

When i woke up I was shacked while a horrible women interrogated me. Temperance wanted to use a iron maiden to get the truth out of me but this old man stopped her. I was important and a example needed to be made. I would go on trial and then temperance could use the iron maiden on me.

I was thrown into a oubliette i think that is the word it means to forget or something. It is a huge cavern with only one entrance down a rope. I still have my diary because the guards felt sorry for me. They are really nice. They give me plenty of food and have even given me blankets which I share with Stone who is here as well.

The other prisoners are not as nice they will not even look at me. I hope my rocking horse is alright.

Ransom note from stone

Dear mother,

I was hoping you could send 50 gold coins to the jailers of my prison. I am afraid i was caught smuggling goods. The city guard took me and my associates to prison. I would like to bail some of them out as well. I would also like to tip the guards for feeding me. So please bring as much as you can.

Written on invisible ink on the back of stones ransom note

The guards have supplied a fellow prisoner Laura with her diary and pens. They are also feeding me well. Mainly because they are terrified of laura. I got caught moving looted items and because of my dark crusader title I did not have enough to bribe the guards.

I just hope the lord the loot was taken from did not make it out of the slums. I heard someone took out a couple of his gold teeth. So please be quick with the gold. On the plus side the locals are nice all i have to do is keep Laura away from them.

I found out why they are so afraid of laura. Apparently when this angelic looking little girl was put in here she was lowered in chains in a basket. The guards had crossbows pointed at her the whole time. There were also three mages casting a sleep spell on her.

A local gang member got close enough to use identify on her and wet himself. She has the cannibal ability. Then when she woke up the guards were waiting and asked her if she wanted her things back. The local gangs now knew something was fishy. The guard had two mages with them. Romurs got started in the dark about the terrifying soul eater little girl.

So when I was dumped with my smuggler buddies they all assumed that Luara had threatened me.

I could fell the pity of the thieves murders and rapists. They felt sorry for me. The scum of the entire city are all terrified of a little girl. After my first night sharing laura blanket you could feel the prisoners terror increase. I am not sure what they think laura was doing to me. But they will not meet my eye.

I heard one of the prisoners telling a story about laura. “They say even the demons in hell are afraid of her. She turns men into flies and rips there wings off before swallowing them whole.” you can feel the terror.

Most of the prisoners have been released on bond. With the initial fires put out. The local lords want everything put back in place as fast as possible and are clearing out the jail except for the worst of the worst. Or those caught with the dark crusader title.

Report from witch lord

Mistress Aria,

This is a report about the dark crusade. No one myself included expected what happened. Ronan proved to be a insanely successful leader. Even now the ashes from three cities and all the monasteries for one hundred and fifty kilometers lay on the ground.

When I was first summoned i was impressed by Ronan and that skeleton he employed. However I assumed that it would be another failed attempt to gain ground. We might damage the forces of good but ultimately they would win in this corner of the world.

Ronan launched a series of attacks in three cities on the same hour. Poison had been administered the day before. The temple soldiers were weakened. And the rats and bats attacked the priests. This went off without a hitch in all three cities. Then skeletons were sent in to clear out the temple guards. Ronan personally lead his forces in the biggest city Ironheights

The situation at the moment is tricky the forces of good have been done perhaps a mortal blow. Ronan has sowed dissent among the lords. They have begun to slaughter each other. If the orc and goblin tribes can be brought together we might be in a position to grab control of the entire region.

I have got to cut this report short. Apparently a skeleton I assumed would be killed is returning to the local hovel I am currently resided in Carnsfort. The God of pure evil has warned me it might be upset. Given the the fact to survive it would have had to have killed at least 16 warriors level 200- 300 I am getting out of here. Seriously what kind monsters are being born in these parts. It makes me feel weak and small.

Skeleton descrator

Lion could not keep up on his horse and i pulled ahead. Skeleton do not lose stamina unless they use power moves. My own stamina is limitless for things like walking. I can walk for a month no effect. But quick movements require stamina. Luckily for me the steed I was on did not use stamina to gallop.

Thinking about things would it be worth it if I ripped off the witchlords leg and stuck it up his ass. He was undead it would not kill him. Maybe I could use a heal spell once it was up there. Well heal spells did not really work on undead maybe glue. I had giants strength so I should be able to wedge it up there quite far.

Aura of terror increased

Most people think about doing things. You have decided to do something truly barbaric to a member of the same race.

Terrifying presence increased * 2

When you make a threat you mean it and people will sense this.

Terrifying presence increased * 2

You might actually smile when doing the most awful things to the witchlord people will sense this as well

I got to Carnsfort and looked around there were dark Paladins manning the walls. There were also three naked women chained over a pole with there ass sticking into the air. Two were being gawked at by a men the third a massive older women had been pelted with rotten fruit.

I looked around and I noticed Felix who was grinning “Nuns of the good gods they have refused to give up there false gods. So how went it at the castle?” Lion spoke “One dead lord and a lot of dead foot soldiers is Elizabeth around?” Felix grinned and went off to summon Elizabeth.

Elizabeth rushed out “You need to stop them spanking Suzie. They think it is lucky. That poor girl can barely sit down” “Laura created a dark quest spank Suzie really hard. Stone read the quest and completed the quest. Now there are a lot of dark paladins waiting in a line to spank her. They think it will increase there luck”

Elizabeth stopped walking “Crap we are going to have to get that girl out of here and fast” Elizabeth gave me a hard look “Fine after me your right luck is really hard to increase.”

We got one point of luck each. A sobbing Suzie was put in the local prison to stop the dark paladins spanking her. The effect of the curse on her should wear off in a day or so. Elizabeth would have Lucy, Lion , Felix and Jarold spank her in the morning. No need to waste a good curse. We would pay Suzie family a gold coin for the inconvenience. Then we would keep Suzie in the jail for a few days just in case her family also wanted the luck point.

I summoned up 30 greater ice mages and 15 greater skeleton archers and had them equipped with cloaks. I had the skeleton mages armed with a giant axe. They would use up there mana and then use there axes. Tomorrow I would learn summon skeleton dwarf masons, smiths and miners. Elizabeth had a new few bodies curtest of Ronan. The undead miners would create a few new ditches and the mason would build a decent set of towers around the town. They could only work at night until bandages were found for them. But they would work all night non stop.

I had just finished summoning the skeletons and had them patrolling the walls when a bunch of knights appeared. There were 22 of them. Most of them were quite old between 40 and 60 years of age and had levels of about 135. That meant lazy they had finished there squire ship and had decided to just let there training slide. The leader

Lord Bull level 115 age 35

a lazy and incompetent lord. Has gout. Due to rolls of fat armour does not fit correctly. Armour debuff.

Due to smell and itchiness due to armour debuff all negotiations.

He rode up to the locked gate and i moved forward and used drain mana on two of my skeleton mages. I was in serious need because my mana was almost depleted. I could summon ten standard skeletons archers for the mana cost of a greater ice mage.

Felix ran up looking furious “Your not welcome here Bull. We are a free town under the protection of new and might masters.” Bull laughed “mighty masters my arse the local lords are in uproar. The good churches are all split. So i am expanding before the others do. Now be a good chap or and get this gate open or i will have you whipped like your son in law was.”

I decided enough was enough I wanted the horses bull was on. I cast ice bolts and three came out only one knight fell. So i cast it again while the knights were trying to work out what was going on. 17 came out this time and nine knights fell. I ordered the ice mages to use ice bolts and the rest fell quickly.

Felix grinned and lead the villagers out to retrieve any loot they could. The rest of the day and night was like that small groups arrived demanded we surrender to them and were mowed down by me. I got a lot better at icy bolts.

We also killed all the remaining local lords. They had all sent in troops to capture Carnsfort. So by the morning most of there troops were dead. I only had to send out one group of a few skeleton mages they captured the nearly undefended keeps and small holding. They then moved from one small holding to the next.

While this was going on i got lessons from Elizabeth. Elizabeth knew a surprising amount about necromancy. She thought me the ceremony for summoning a undead knight. Of course to do this i needed a dead knight and about twelve hours of a convoluted ceremony. I got the dead knight and put him a circle chanted the incantation.

Summon spirit>spirit type dead knight> stats

select> name 7ujd %ijf

if(int counter>= level)

(dsakjldskjldsafjkldafs)

else if (int counter=

It took almost nine hours of non stop spells before I was finished. With the initial summoning spell. Apparently once you did this once perfect that was it you had a instant spell. Of course for a human

it would have been torture one mistake in the entire nine hours of spells and you had to start over.

Well the spell went without a hitch and i used it to summon a dead knight.

Dead knight level 125 hp 1575

A dead knight retains sword slash and block skills

I tried out my summon greater spirit and it worked. For 50 mana i could summon a spirit that would

possess each of the dead knight I had stored in Jarrods warehouse. There was a 5 percent chance of summoning a skeleton with slight gift like minor fear aura or cold aura. So I used up most of my mana to summon 30 greater spirits and had them possess the knights. Once they woke in a week or so i would have hopefully at least have one knight with a extra trait. I could use life drain on him to learn how to put it into the others.

Your goblin horde has captured a castle. A new dungeon heart has been installed in the castle.

Sara goblin shaman> Your a hard one to get hold of boss I have been trying for hours.

me>Well I have been summoning a undead knight. Or rather 30 to them I might send some over once the spell finishes working on them. How are things working out for you.

Sara>The god of pure evil gave us a few bonuses.

God of pure evil> Well i figured you would survive the whole death squad business. I am in need of a good weapon producer. With the recent surge in fighting my troops need weapons. So i have given you a few orcs to follow you. to make up for the witchlord incompetence

Me>Fair enough i suppose this means I can not ram the witchlords foot up his ass.

God of pure evil>No that is something you can not do. Well should not do.

War god: Tu the angry> Well your no fun go out there and kill.

Me>Any good targets

Tu the angry> yup I will supply targets shipments of weapons and supplies to you and you can raid them. I hate Mia and feel you could really do her some damage.

me>fair enough
