The Fort

An outpost of years past. The aging structure is what remain of an old Kelvendar outpost. Since the weather is rather dry in the desert, little of the ancient structure has been destroyed. Only wind and sand wear on this old place. There aren't many signs of life here, but there there are some human footprints here and there suggesting someone has been through here, but it is hard to tell how long ago that was. There are signs of beasts coming through the fort... Or live there.

The group will have taken 2 days to get there, they will have arrived late morning.

Laying in the shadows of the courtyard was an extremely large backpack... At least nine feet tall, if not more so. The backpack had various bits of... things sticking out of it, and it smelled a lot like smoke.

Outside of the backpack was a short man with flame red hair. He had tables set up all around his backpack that had even more bits and pieces of things spread out on it. It ranged from a cage filled with hamsters all the way to what appeared to be a half finished suit of armor that was retrofitted with a porcupine like exterior... And strangely enough there was a bit of smoke issuing from the armor.

Hadrien himself was leaning back in his chair and sipped some water. He had no idea how much longer he would be able to stay at this fort. The bandits had found him five times already, and they didn't seem to be giving up pursuit... Maybe it had something to do with blowing six of them up on accident. Or maybe they just wanted to become his glorious interns!

Hadrien really hoped it was that last one. He tended to go through interns rather quickly. Half the time they blew themselves up and the other half of the time, he was the one who blew them up...

"Note to self, if my next set of interns develop some type of rash, never let themselves rub down with a salve or lotion derived from alcohol and oil and then have them test the prototype flameblaster..." He laughed. "But on the bright side I could see where the leak was that time."

Roslynn stuck to her own shadows. Well, it looks like they aren't here....but what was? Could it really just be wild animals? OR maybe it's just a hobo? Hmmm...."

She looked at Varen and shrugged.

Varen pointed to the shadows at the furthest corner of the fort. "A small man is sitting in a chair right there in the shadows. He's drinking water and he's surrounded by half a dozen tables, and a giant backpack." Varen murmured. He focused his eyesight a bit more and saw that there were also barrels by each and every table, and about eleven feet behind the man.

"Want me to take him?"

Varen curled his lip slightly as he moved through the shadows. He was beginning to wish that someone else other than this woman came with him. She kept her emotions under tighter control then the others, and he was beginning to get hungry.

Varen stepped from shadow to shadow until he was in between the barrels behind the man. Varen wasn't ready for what happened next though.

The minute he appeared in the shadows each and every barrel twitched and suddenly dozens upon dozens of arms emerged from the barrels, and each of them ended in extremely sharp blades.

Crap.

The first blade slashed him across his chest the split second after he appeared. The second slashed him across the stomach, and the rest slashed him in dozens on dozen of other areas.

Varen was unconscious in a matter of seconds... He didn't even have the time to call on his masters for help.
__

"I was wondering when you'd all show up!" Hadrien called. He jumped out of his chair and blew a whistle. The arms in the barrels retracted back and they suddenly appeared to be barrels again.

"I know there's more than one of you!" Hadrien shouted. "Your partner here is in trouble here, show yourself and I'll let you drag him away from my bladebarrels! If you show yourself nothing bad will happen."

What the hell?

Roslynn chuckled and popped out a bit, "Sorry, we don't really mean any harm, we just want some information if possible. We heard there was something strange living here, we wondered what it was....but I think we just found it, haha. I don't think he meant to hurt you, unless you proved to be an enemy."

Hadrien picked up what appeared to be a copper tube with a ruby on the end of it. He examined it to determine exactly what it was... He had made so many things he had a hard time remembering which was which.

Well it'll do, he sighed silently. He pointed it at the woman and stared at her. "Are you a bandit? 'cause they've been following me for weeks and I killed about twelve of them... And if you're a bandit, I'm willing to let you live as long as you go back to your 'king' and tell him you found nothing at all." He twirled his invention around in his hand as he continued, "But if you refuse, you'll probably regret it."

"No, we aren't bandits. We're actually after those bandits, matter of fact." Roslynn stepped out of the shadows completely and knelt next to Varen. "Those are some....interesting barrels." she chuckled as she examined him.

"They're called blade barrels. Triggered by proximity or movement. Clockwork sensors and steam driven vanes detect motion near the blade barrel, and anything larger than a rat is subject to a lethal series of attacks...Well usually at any rate." Hadrien looked down at the old man, and poked him. "He was either in the perfect spot to avoid lethal injury, or he's a lot stronger then he looks...Or they're malfunctioning."

Hadrien dragged him away from the barrels and then put a normal barrel half an inch from where the old man was originally positioned. He blew the whistle to reactivate the barrels, and suddenly the normal barrel was reduced to a bunch of splinters.

Hadrien laughed and did a little dance. "Okay they still work. Guess he was just lucky!"

"You're....odd. Hahahah." Rose took out some bandages and would bandage up Varen, to try to stop the bleeding."

Hadrien continued looking at the woman. "You look familiar..." He snapped his fingers. "Right, you're Kelvendar! Works with the prince. Saw you around the capital about two years ago before I was thrown out of the city. Does the king's bedroom still smell like smoke and burnt hair?" He asked this because of a certain little...incident between him and the king. Hadrien had hoped that if the smell vanished, the king wouldn't remember half of his palace going up in a blaze of inferno... Though the damn cheapskate deserved it.

"Hm? Well, yes, that's probably me. And it's pretty much gone, now, a keen noes can pick it out, though. Why were you thrown out?"

"Well a couple of years back, I was given a job by the king. I was to install steam and water pipes throughout the palace to keep it either cool or warm. I also made him a bet that if I could do it in three days, he would double my pay." Hadrien said. "Well he agreed because he didn't think I'd be able to do it in three days. Well I did do it, in a day and a half I may add... But unfortunately I rushed the job a bit and forgot to add a couple off pressure release valves..." He laughed at the memory. "The minute I activated the system the steam pipes and water pipes built up too much pressure and blew half the building to hell and back...The cheap bastard didn't give me my pay, and banished me from the capital."

Hadrien prodded the man on the ground and he moaned a bit. "Damn geezer is tough as hell..." He looked at his backpack and whistled. A small shape came crawling out of the pack and scurried up to the man and sniffed him. "Wilbur, get the needle and prod him with it please."

Wilbur was in fact Hadrien's one surviving 'intern'. He was actually a hamster that had gone through and survived numerous tests that Hadrien inflicted on him. One of which grafted dozens upon dozens of metal plates onto him, and gifted it with a degree of intelligence. It could follow basic instructions at least, which made him smarter than a baby... Not that he hadn't tried training babies.

The hybridized hamster scurried back into his backpack and popped out quickly with a syringe filled with what appeared to be a black liquid. It looked at the man again and then charged at the man on the ground. He jabbed the needle into the man's arm and then banged it's head against the end of the needle to inject the liquid.

"Okay, he should be better in a few minutes..." Hadrien said. "Provided he has no adverse reactions to that!" He laughed. "But Wilbur is alright, so I don't see why this guy wouldn't be."

Banned less than 24 hours after being un-underdogged

Vega sat atop a nearby pillar and watched the events unfold before him. He was as still as a rock and didn't make a sound. He wasn't out of sight, but was a good 13 or so feet above them, so unless they looked up, no one would be aware of his presence.
