I suppose that my adept bounty hunting skills precede my reputation, for I have already found those interested. This, my friends is a place where I will start a story, and those who seem interested shall merge into my story. *Ahem* OUR story. I shall soon post the beginning of the quest, so stick around. |

The wind on that fine morning carried with it but a wisp of the salts of the neighboring sea. This was commonplace within the docks district of the city of Athkatla, where so many fisherman and dockworkers scurried about the piers, and the stench of fish filled the air.
This was the only place it seemed that thieves could comfortabley call home, for merchants and the Shadow Thieves made a pact long ago that offered amnesty to any of the wayward thieves guards make have caught simply wandering in the city's depths.
This was the place Yoshimo called home, even though he was not regarded as friend with most of the city's inhabitants, especially Shadow Master of Athkatla, Aaron Linveil.
Yoshimo sat with a foot propped up on a chair as he sat against the wall, downing some of what these westerners called Winterwine. Spicy stuff, he thought. This was the type of life he wished he could live all the time, undesturbed with a tankard by his side.
He played with one of his many daggers, his eyes scanning the room for anyone who sought to do him harm.
He knew that no one would seek to do him harm, for he was noble... Gallant... Trustworthy... He laughed to himself and spat at the last thought.
His thoughts were then disturbed by the shouts of those outside of the Daft Ale Tavern, down a few flights of stairs. This, it seemed, regarded something about trolls.
With a raised brow, Yoshimo checked his gear and stood, curiosity swimming over him. Battle, he thought, was about to fill the air.
THIS IS WHERE THERE SHOULD BE SOME SORT OF PAGE DEPICTING YOSHIMO'S STATISTICS, BUT I WONT WORRY ABOUT THAT UNTIL LATER ON. FEEL FREE TO MOVE OFF ONTO ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW. |

Yoshimo's cautious footsteps brought him slowly out into the open where the rain from above tapped against his armor and swords. He leaned upon a railing with both arms as the events outside began to transpire.
As it turned out, a large, green, wart-encompassed troll was swatting at all of the sailors and swashbucklers he recognized that were beginning to shut him off from movement. The corner of Yoshimo's mouth raised slightly and he even gave a surprised laugh when a sword-wielding sailor was hurled into the sea off of the docks with a swift backhand from the troll. Each slash that was made on the troll revealed more sizzling green blood the bounty hunter was no stranger to.
Soon, the troll became so angry that he began to swat even more viciously at the sailors and warriors. It was soon that each one of these men were downed, one even mortally wounded by one of the troll's horrid claws.
Yoshimo thought this all to be quite amusing when the sailors appeared they were going to win, yet there came the time when the troll began chasing after a some of the peasants in the area. As much as the bounty hunter hated fighting creatures that were twice his size and strength, Yoshimo planted a booted foot on the rail and leaped down to the cobble-stone street beside a vendor's booth that hid his demeanor. He drew the katana and wakasashi from his back silently and left the cover he had leaped behind in order to sneak up behind the troll silently and unnoticed.
The troll licked its horrid lips and reached down for a peasant woman who was in a corner, helpless. But before his fingers grasped the woman, a sharp pain ran up through his flanks, duel blades slicing into his buttocks. It turned to regard Yoshimo, and the bounty hunter simply smiled.
Greetings, ugly, I have come to offer my condolences to your unsightly appearance.
Yoshimo smiled, for he knew this troll understood clearly what he said. He ducked deftly under the swing of the troll's long arms and raking claws, charging up to slice cleanly into its leg and groin before another hand's knuckles slammed hard into him and sent him into a spin as he sailed backwards through the air. The troll was mad, and Yoshimo knew he would need some help as he stood, coughing from the blow... |

This is where someone can jump in with any action they want to perform, okay? You can kick the troll's butt if you want and then get to know Yoshimo better and Yoshimo can get to know you better... Okay? |

Zerituel jumps into the street from a rooftop and unleashes a mighty greatsword with blue flames trailing off of it. This magical sword cutts deep in the troll's breast and then again through the thing's leg.
<Needed some help?> he growls as the troll staggers back. |

A Bunch of Heros in a Cliche Sort of D&D RPG
, but it will be fun, nonetheless. An RPG that anyone can join if they want to. You have to have a character, of course, and perhaps there will even be stats in the future, but now there only needs to be your character that includes the following statistics:
