Ninja:<br/>Your crew does not seem comfortable with your last statement, Saber in particular. Keep in mind, you've got three good guys on your team, and your last statement sounded rather dark.<br/>"What he means to say is that it's in your best interests to leave your seals with us, otherwise you might become targets again. You should accept your loss with dignity and bow out of this war," Defender clarifies, giving you a meaningful look.<br/>"Fine, you may take mine, " the guy you scalded says. His seals turn into a book of command and he hands it to Defender. "But I choose to give mine to you. What you do with them now is between the two of you."<br/>The woman on the other hand is trembling in rage. "How dare you! I refuse to give my seals to you! Your're the ones who defeated Lancer!  If you want my seals, you'll have to take them off of my corpse!" She glares right at you, standing defiantly. "I won't run away. You want them, then have Saber take me out. I will fight to my last breath!"<br/>---------------------------------<br/>Cmpuncle:<br/>As you ruffle the wolves fur, Matsi and Anta roll over and let you scratch their bellies, thoroughly enjoying the attentions. Komatsa on the other hand shies away from you and growls a bit. "Komatsa! Behave!"  Komatsa lets up with the growling and walks over to a nearby tree and pisses on it, all the while looking at you.  "Sorry, Komatsa's always been that way," says Berserker with an apologetic shrug.<br/>"It's entirely possible that a master and servant destroyed the bridge in order to fortify their position. We might want to investigate after our hunt tonight," Izzy comments. Berserker nods, though she seems to have her attention elsewhere. "Something wrong Berserker," Izzy inquires. Berserker listens for a few more moments, and slowly shakes her head<br/>"Guess I should get 'get dressed too'."<br/><br/>Speaking of getting dressed, you realize that she changed her outfit sometime this evening. She now walks barefoot on the forest soil. Furthermore, she has donned a pair of baggy jeans with a few tears in them, and a white tank top that shows off her athletic physique.  Covering her head is a black beanie with 4 yellow stripes on it in longitudinal lines and her hands are now sheathed in fingerless gloves. Combined with her albino features, it's a strangely striking ensemble. She closes her eyes and concentrates for a moment. As a cloud coincidentally passes overhead, letting the moon shine upon her and Izzy for a moment. Their pale skin and white hair practically glow in the soft light.<br/><br/>When she opens her eyes, they are now two toned, with red on the outside and yellow on the inside, surrounding the pupil. They glow with their own inner light and her gaze has become markedly more animalistic. Her hair takes on a life of its own, floating about her as she releases a little more of her power. Her fangs become more pronounced and the nails of her hands become claws.  Her ankles change shape so so that her heels no longer touch the ground and her toes sport claws. Her arm and leg muscles also become more pronounced, filling in the bagginess of her clothes, though leaving enough room for more growth. Her dreads return to normal, though they seem a little longer.<br/>" For your information, I was born with the ability to take this form.  It's only the first stage of the transformation, but any more would be risky. I reserve the full transformation for nights of the full moon or when I enter battle. I have much more control over this form than the next, so keep that in mind. Also, while I do require blood, I do not need it as often as you or Izzy. Also, at my age, I no longer need to worry about the sunlight, though it always had less of an effect on me than it did on either of you."<br/><I'll tell you more in a more secure location, master. If my hunch is correct, I'll get to display my abilities firsthand real soon.><br/>"Anyway, let's get on with the hunt, shall we?"<br/>(GM: The names of her familiars are based off of a pack of wolves that I sponsored many years ago. Ironic that one so phobic as me surrounds himself in the imagery of wolves and sponsors a pack.)<br/>----------------------------------------<br/>Undercover:<br/>Berserker takes the hit square on, though the blade doesn't seem to cure his madness, as he is holding the blade responsible for it. Much the same as holding Gentle Hands protects you from his madness, his blade protects him from your sanity. It does not however, protect him from the blades slash, which miraculously, you were able to land an expert hit on him. Though wounded, it does not seem to affect him nearly as much as a wound of its magnitude should.<br/>Saber on the other hand seems to have retained some of her skill, which she uses to blocks your attack with her blade and follows with an attack and an attempt to disarm you.  From your position, you can see that the girl is fighting Sophie, and for once is actually holding her own.  Lancer and Archer are still going at it, every time Lancer attempts to protect you from Saber and Berserker, Archer attacks him, forcing him to keep engaging him. For the time being, you're by yourself against two servants. An attempt at freeing the others from their madness would be incredibly risky.<br/><Hold out for just a little longer Riley! I'm almost there,> says the woman whose identity you now know.<br/><br/>Roll Result: Saikotsu rolled: 2d20, adding 6to the total<br/>Comment: Two separate d20 rolls. +3 per roll.
