Tribes of Twelve Seas [IC]

[Hamste]

Hell's Tribe

The celebration back home. The spoils sit on a dais while all the tribe gather around feasting on meat. Stories of the epic fights are shared around and the tribe is getting rowdy. Jaina smiles at the crowd before yelling.
Everyone listen up! It is time for the sacrifice and the consumption of the heart.

Pyrom slowly lifts a pair of eyes above his head ever so careful not to damage them as he displays them for all the tribe to see. Carefully he lays them on the later next to a lifeless corpse.

It was a glorious hunt. We fought hard and we fought long. Even at home we fought off the Yellow Eyes. In the end we killed a mighty beast and drove away the Yellow Eyes but we still lost a warrior. May their sacrifice never be forgotten and may Chemosh absorb their power for his own. Pyrom says solemnly before the altar. He sits down to start praying.

We rescued some of your tribe members from the Yellow Eyes and we will return them if you want. Though we do have an offer. Your tribe is clearly at risk of being raided again, it seems like food will be harder to get and it seems your tribe is having a lot of difficulties if the dream that was entered into the competition speak of anything. If you want instead of returning all of them we can ask to see if any want to stay with us instead as full members of our tribe to lower the mouths you have to feed and to give them an opportunity to get away from what ever is causing your tribe so much pressure.

Either way it is your choice. We were also wondering if your tribe would be available to make us some weapons and armor? Your tribe is well for known for its craftsmanship and the heads you craft so we were hoping you could craft other things.

All in all that seemed like a very successful fight. We are glad to have worked with you and if you ever want assistance hunting a monster just tell us.The talk about the red sea threats is interesting. It is going to be interesting to see what monsters comes from there.

Spoiler: Lunai Tribe

We won't need help now as the Yellow Eyes are dealt with. In the future we will try to contact you earlier if we are asking for to work together.

Though if there is truly more threats in the Red Sea it might be a good idea to get as many tribes united as possible.

Using Pyrom and 4 villagers to pray to give Chemosh power. They are sacrificing the Mother Lizard eyes to Chemosh and if he wants it the body of the fallen warrior who died in the hunt (If not it is just symbolically disposed of by leaving it out to be eaten by the wild life). I'm also spending 4 mana to strengthen Chemosh.

Am I able to spend Mana to distinguish a warrior into a leader of the tribe particularly seeing the tribe is classified as a larger tribe now? I would like to make a warrior into Ivin the Monster Slayer. The child of Jaina and Pyrom, he distinguished himself finally in the battle against the Yellow EyeTribe in which he managed to achieve the final blow against the Mother Lizard with Fleshpiercer.

If I'm allowed to raise up Ivin I would like him to eat the Lizard heart. If not Pyrom will. Spending 2 extra mana as well as a single person eating the entire thing in the hopes it will strengthen the effect and give the consuming scaly skin the equal to the lizards.

Two of the crafters work with some of the lizard hide and grass to make hide armor with the grass being braided together and used as a thread for the hide. Again both are trying for the best quality possible before asking for Chemosh to bless it with 1 mana.

Hell’s Tribe presents a monster. Unsurprising for their tribe but this monster is a truly terrifying one. A horrendous amalgamation of the best of every beast it represents Hell's Tribe ideals perfectly. Eyes of an eagle peer out for the many ridged face of the beast. Tusks, horn and sharpened antlers jut from the creature's head each carefully designed to deflect blows away from the creature. Venom drips from the various sharp edges of the beast. The few parts of the head and neck not covered in spikes have thick leathery skin resistant to being pierced. The creature has almost no neck but it twists its head around to always look directly at the viewer even going so far as twisting entirely around in a similar manner as an owl. Most of the body is obscured by a thick shell covered in spikes a strange combination of turtle and porcupine. Hundreds of legs just from the bottom of the the creature each covered in a thick carapace protecting it's legs in thick armor. 6 arms reach out from the creature. 4 of them are reminiscent of a gorilla's covered in muscle and a thick matted fur. Each of the Gorilla arms carries a massive horn like spear like a horn was torn from a narwhal. The remaining 2 arms look like a massive crab's claws designed for snapping and blocking with. The most terrifying thing of all is something not seen however. For hidden inside the shell, piloting the creature is a human brain, heart and soul. For no matter how dangerous the body nothing will ever equal the adaptability of those three things.

Response to the Dreams (Not sure what is exactly supposed to be done with the responses but I just thought of possible answers that might weaken the dream or concepts. If they can let other concepts fight it out they will)

Spoiler: Masked Man

Show

When he gets close to the chimera the creature will start threatening it and chasing it. Not attempting to hurt it but trying to force the dreamer to feel fear. You can smile and say it was just a dream if you want and that you were the master but that is just you lying to yourself. When you wake up in the middle of the night, in a cold sweat and shaking in fear from your nightmares, can you say you were the master? Has the nightmare truly ended when the dreamer awakes or has the dreamer just shut their eyes looking away from a world they simply can't understand?

Spoiler: Volcano

Show

The creature moves away from the volcano but then it sits down to wait. It plans to wait and wait for eons. Moss growing on its back as it uses a tortoise's life span and hibernation to stare at the volcano as its life inevitably ebbs. For while volcanos can kill almost anything they have a life span and no matter how big their tantrum is eventually they have to calm down. And when they do, the mighty volcano's corpse finds the very things it sought to destroy growing on it and thriving as its energy it feeds them. For life will evolve and adapt until it triumphs over even the worst disaster For life can be eternal while all disasters must one day end.

Spoiler: The Ocean

Show

The Chimera is unperturbed at the advancing onslaught and prepares to fight back. A land creature may fear the oceans with its apparent merciless nature but the oceans teem with life which has adapted to its moods. The ocean is only a harsh mistress to those who don't belong and the Chimera is a creature of the ocean just as much as it is a creature of the land or even the air.

Spoiler: Adventure and Desperation

Show

Rather than try to get metaphysical with the conceptual dreams, Jaina is going to try to force the Stone Head's Dream and the Groh's dream to meet for she believes they are antithetical to each other. One running out of time, not excited but terrified of one day having to face the eyes that watch them and realizing they are not enough. The other about taking your time and enjoying yourself and being adventurous. To seek out new goals and adventures. They should not exist at the same time and so hopefully if they meet they will cease to be.
