EVENT #02: A MAN OF WORTH EXECUTION PHASE

At the appointed time, a lavish fleet of airships begin to descend upon the islands of Elysium. Departing from the Maikrecht port, the heraldry on the central ship marks a noble general of extreme renown. His airship is surrounded by 3 other airships in a protective triangular formation, as well as a flight of 2 Zepter and 3 Feder armors. As they descend, the Flotsam fleet set sails, hoisting black flags as one over every single ship in the fleet. Flotsam has but 4 functional airships to their name, and all are present today as they take flight. As the airships climb in altitude, the Flotsam fleet begins firing upon the escort group from below.

It is above this salvo of cannon fire that the Corsairs begin to board. Descending on the escort airships via glider, they have but one goal - destroy the ships. Meanwhile, a smaller strike force quietly descends on the main ship with their own mission: secure the VIP and get him out alive.

CORE MISSIONS

Attack the Ships:Combatants will need to attack and sink the 3 escort ships and armor escorts, as well as ensure the elimination of any soldier within the escort party.
Conflicts: The fighting will be bitter, with lots of powerful soldiers. There are 3 Feder and 2 Zepter armors that will need to be contended with, the Feder Armors carrying gattling guns and the Zepter armors piloted by powerful lightning mages. The soldiers manning the ships are elite, and cannot be easily dispatched.
Requirements: To participate in this mission, your thread header should read ATTACK THE SHIPS.

Capture the VIP:Infiltrators will need to sneak aboard the main ship and capture the VIP. The man himself is an aging noble in rich robes and with graying hair who goes by the title of Lord Gundhir. They will need to capture and subdue him, as well as get him off his ship and onto a Corsair vessel.
Conflicts: Lord Gundhir is not a fighter, but he won’t come easily. Additionally, he is accompanied by his son, Adolfus Gundhir, who is a powerful warrior known for fighting with a massive greatsword. While the private and sumptuous appointed quarters the two nobles are in aren’t great terrain for using the greatsword, the younger Gundhir is an extremely accomplished warrior and if encountered directly will take the combined might of the entire team to threaten.
Requirements: To participate in this mission, your thread header should read CAPTURE THE VIP.

A young green haired girl in a heavy robe approaches, her cowl down to reveal her youthful face.

"I had heard someone was in need of healing, am I to take it that is you?"

[minorinasskicking]

Gohan looks up when he realizes he's being spoken to. He doesn't recognize the young lady standing over him, but she does look the part of a healer.

"Um, I guess I do have a few places where I took some hits, but I don't think they're serious -- just bruises or scratches. I'm more low on stamina than anything else right now. Is that something you can help with?"

[sapphirecontess]

[Musse's demeanor becomes immediately sly]

My my, what a strong and dashing man~

Well, be that as it may I've been given orders to provide healing, and provide I shall. Please hold still, this will only take a moment.

[As she speaks, blue ether begins to gather around her hand, in a manner that may remind Gohan of a gentle stream.]

[minorinasskicking]

Eh?

[Gohan manages a very sheepish grin.]

I-I don't know about dashing, but yeah, I can't deny my strength.

[Gohan only thinks he comes off as dashing when he's in Great Saiyaman mode. In other words, he's a rather poor judge of that sort of thing.

Anyway, Gohan does as he's told and holds still, though he watches with great fascination. He hasn't seen the native healing magic up close and personal yet.]

[sapphirecontess]

[Musse focuses for a bit as the blue energy swirls around Gohan. He will immediately feel his wounds begin to mend and close, although any major injuries will only close - those will require far more attention]

[minorinasskicking]

Oh, wow...

[Gohan watches in amazement as the energy swirls around him and he feels his wounds healing and pain subsiding. He's fortunate that he doesn't have any major injuries, so by the time it's done, he's feeling right as rain.

Well, not so much on the lack of energy front. But at least he feels better!]

Wow, thanks! I appreciate that.

[sapphirecontess]

Of course. I must say, you got quite banged up but seem to be weathering it well. What did you DO, exactly, to end up in such a state?

[minorinasskicking]

I can fly, so I volunteered to help keep the armors busy. I forced them to fight me, and even when they tried to get away, I didn't let them. That way, they couldn't attack our fighters boarding their ships, or our own airships.

I could dodge most of what they threw at me, but they got lucky a few times.

[sapphirecontess]

I see. Usually people don't return when Armors "get lucky".

[minorinasskicking]

I got that impression, too. That's another part of why I volunteered to keep them busy. I've been through a lot, including things that hit faster than those armors. Any hits they got on me were glancing blows at most. But better I bait their attacks than someone else who can't avoid the full brunt of them.

[sapphirecontess]

That's quite daring. Are you feeling any internal pain? Even a glancing blow can be quite dangerous when one considers the sheer size and weight of the armors.

[minorinasskicking]

Oh, the armors themselves never touched me. I got nicked by some of their bullets, but nothing worse than that. I think I'll be fine, just as long as I get some food and some rest.

[On one hand, Gohan is the type to downplay his injuries. On the other hand, he has experience with internal injuries before, and nothing feels like that here.]

I guess I could get a full checkup when we get back, though.

[sapphirecontess]

That would be strongly advised. I can provide immediate attention but the medical staff will be needed to properly appraise you.

[minorinasskicking]

Then I'll do it. I'll give the people with more serious injuries a little time to get in first, then I'll get in line myself.

[At least this is an improvement over "I'm fine, go help the people worse off, not me" that he's had in the past.]
