Myths and Creatures of Myth 101.

[Sephiroth the Skull Master]

Good evening - my name is Sephiroth the Skull Master, and I'd like to welcome you all to my first class on:

[glow=black,2,300]Mythical creatures and their uses...[/glow]

In this session, we start with the basics - Summoning a creature, or spectre, and getting it to do what we would require it to do. For instance, Zombie slaves can be a pain in the neck if used incorrectly, but they can ALSO be usede to find the remote control for the TV or basic home chores.

Same goes for floating Skulls or Enchanted daggers - all harbingers of doom if used in the wrong manner, but excellent party servers and letter-openers in their own special way.

Now, will students who intend to take this course PLEASE come in, and make themseleves known.

I will tolerate no mis-use of spells, equipment, or demonstration creatures like 'Bob' the skull and 'Daranoff' Dragon.

Now, let's get everyone sat down, named and dealt with before I continue... ;D

[LordBob]

Hmm this looks like an interesting class *sits down* Hiya I am Lord Dennis

[Sephiroth the Skull Master]

I do hope you pay attention - I would SO hate to lose ANY students to the unknown forces that are merely seperated by a thin veil of reality.

Of course, it hasn't happened YET, but there's always a first time for everything. We'll await 3 more attendee students before starting. ;D

A small blue dragon wearing a grass skirt, lei, sun glasses and a brightly colored shirt walks in
Skippy: Yo! Does anyone know where Hawaiji is?

[LordBob]

second door on your left, there is a vortex in there which either goes to Hawaii or dimension Q I cant remember which though

[glow=red,2,300]Notice[/glow]
This classroom is NOT to be used for unrequired asking of unrelated topics during hours from outside interference. Any student who DOES interfere here will be fed to the hungry dragon downstairs...

While the sign is NOT intended, it's purpose is clear: Don't BOTHER him during a class in session. Oo

[Snowwiewolf]

Skippy: Thanks *runs off*

[ringmasterrob]

hey hungry dragon eh? You must have met Dracus

[GreenDragon]

GreenDragon: All present and correct, sir! What are we going to learn about first?

[Sephiroth the Skull Master]

In order for us to learn about mythical creatures, we are going to summon our OWN and study them both individually, and as a group. Of course, Summoning a creature in the FIRST place is something I wish to cover in this class.

{Walks over to the blackboard, and rubs out whatever is on it.}

We will be spending MUCH time studying the space-time dynamics of Organic Object Transference techniques and the many, MANY methods in which we do, and do NOT implement in such spells. Get used to learning about the Ritualistic dynamic of these spells, and what, if misinterpreted, can go wrong.

{He picks up a chalk, and draws a complicated diagram involving one pentogram, interlaced with lines joining up various outer points of the star, demonstrating where objects and candles need to be placed and prepared.}

The fabric of space-time itself is a thin veil seperating reality from other interwoven alternate reality's. However, we can BEND this fabric and snatch a creature from these alternate realities by the technique of 'folding' reality around it like paper, and tearing a small, repairable hole so we can drag it out.

{He pulls out a video tape from his desk drawer.}

SINCE you are young, and inexperienced, I have brought along a tape of 'The worlds most fatal summonings' for you to observe. As we learn more about the ways of the summoning, we will come BACK to this tape and point out WHAT the spellcaster did wrong, and what should be done to ensure such mistakes are not made.

{Sticks the tape in the TV nearby, and smiles back at his class.}

What? Did you expect me to make you do anything strenuous on your first day of class? Pencils down, eyes up and PAY attention, that's all I ask.

{Presses play, and lets the morbid, yet funny footage roll.}

[LordBob]

*Watches the strange film* T.V doesnt really fit in with the dungeon dimension does it?

[Sephiroth the Skull Master]

It fits because I say so, Dennis - after all, it WAS an interesting piece of technology, despite the obvious redundancy in this place... ;D

{The film rolls on with a piece about a guy who was sucked into his own portal...Oo}

Oooooh, Nasty!

[LordBob]

Well this certainly is interesting, wonder where the portal took him?

[Sephiroth the Skull Master]

Nobody knows - he was never seen again after that was taken.

{After the last incident is shown - a young sorceress standing there, gaping at the remnants of half a unicorn-type creature, he flicks off the tape.}

We'll come back to the tape as a stufy aid when we've learnt more about the do's and don'ts of these procedures. As for now, we'll be studying the reasons people summon creatures. Now, can anybody tell me a GOOD reason why anybody would summon ANY creature at all? One at a time, raise your hands if you can...

{Awaits response.}

[LordBob]

In combat then a fierce creature like a bugbear could be summoned to protect the caster so he can cast more spells (I have experienced that first hand against the dark wizard Antonius)
