“You dare to collect fairy wings? ? YOU UNSPEAKEABLE FIEND!!!!!!!” Valerian shouted at the poor merchant reaching across the table grabbing the merchant by the collar. Valerian shook the merchant several times accenting his words as he spoke. “Do you have ANY idea how many times I’ve nearly been killed by spell casting morons like yourself? Oh look there is one lets killed it with lots of poison hehehehehe won’t that be fun. I’m practically an endangered species you know? ? (Well I guess the bunny demons have it worse but you know they reproduce like no other so they’ll be making a big comeback soon you just know. But fairies I tell you can’t even get a date much less respawn allowing my race to escape its dire fate of fading from existence but in any case your nut jobs sure aren’t helping the matter.)”<br> The merchant was looking a rather sickly shade of blue green as if he could decide what was worse being shaken till he was sick or being deprived of oxygen. He managed between shakings “I honestly have no idea what you are talking about. These are butterfly wings.”<br> Valerian however was to busy to talking to actually listen to whatever the merchant had to say. Valerian was in rare form today, he was feeling particularly spunky because he had managed to make himself grow another half inch, which he was particularly proud of. Valerian hoped one day to be seven or eight feet tall but currently he was a little less then three and one-forth feet tall. He extra long black and blue strange half butterfly half demon like wings fluttered keeping him in the air causing his mid length blue hair to wave about dramatically (or would be dramatic anyway if his hair didn’t keep poking him in his violet eyes) as he flew. To top it off he had blush tinted white skin, if not for the fact he was so short and hyper he might actually have been intimidating. Suddenly something pinched his wings together and Valerian fell with an “EEEP!” as he crashed into the earth. As Valerian picked himself up off the ground he was delighted to see the offenders against his person were none other then the elder Benson sisters Begonia and Hydrangea. Begonia was a the slightly heavier set and shorter of the two with deep purple hair & eyes and lovely orange wings which were her best feature. Hydrangea on the other hand had a statuesque build long flowing golden hair, wings that went from light to deep violent and light purple eyes. Begonia had her hands full with two jacklopes one blue and one brown who she was hugging close so it had to be Hydrangea who had clipped him from behind. Hydrangea was the taller of the two and so Valerian was deeply attracted to her, plus it didn’t hurt that she was wearing a Japanese school girls sailor school outfit and from where Valerian laid on the ground her could see up her skirt to her sailor moon panties. The merchant barely had time to gasp for breath before Hydrangea was barking at him about a cure for some or other involving their brother; Valerian had missed most of what they said as he was too stunned by this sudden view of the stunner. Collecting his wits and shutting his mouth valerian took to the air once more to speak with the older, taller, and beautiful fairy. “Ahem, well well my good Hydrangea imagine meeting you here. It has been so long, have you been well? I hope so. I saw a beautiful flower the other day and it just reminded me of you, well it wasn’t actually a hydrangea (in fact I think it was a daisy) but all flowers remind me of you. Did you know that?” Valerian asked with all the sophistication he could muster and then when she didn’t realize she was there even after repeating himself several time he added. “HYRDRANGEA BENSON!!!!!!! WHY HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!”<br> Unable to ignore Valerian shouting in her ear Hydrangea finally paused and spoke to him with any annoyed fluttering of her wings replying less then sweetly. “Go away Valerian.”<br> For Valerian this was indeed a good sign, she remembered his name which was a first. Although he had met the Bensons and Hydrangea many times before, 147 by Valerian’s dubious count, each time Hydrangea had not remembered him or at least pretended not to. Valerian wasn’t sure and since both were depressing he never dwelled on it. “Hi Val.” Begonia called over to him. “Did you see George & Oleander? Isn’t he cute? ?? I love them both. We were wandering in the wood when we came on Azalea’s ex……” Begonia said thrusting the jackalopes at him. “Yea whatever Begonia.” Valerian said. “Sooooooooo Hydrangea. What whatever brings you to here this fine evening in such a state of distress.”<br> Begonia was the one who answered him for Hydrangea was to busy ‘haggling’ with the merchant which was suspiciously similar to the method of ‘talking’ Valerian had employed only a few moments before. “Ohhh, we we’re after that wicked Kavonn. You remember I told you all about him don’t you? Azalea’s ex. Well anyway we were about to pay him back for all his meanieness to our little sister when he turned Oleander into this CUTE little bunnie! It all happened so fast one moment Oleander was throwing blades and the next he was my sweet little……”<br> Valerian asked slyly. “Yea, yea, yea! Soooooooooo Hydrangea doesn’t like ‘Kavonn’ yes?”<br> Begonia replied quickly. “No we all hate him he is a little….”<br> Valerian smiles as sweetly as he could which was impressive because on the rare occasions he actually tried he could have make frosting seemed bland. “Reallllllllly??? Tell me more about it!”<br> And after a few more moments of discussion securing some details on Kavonn first from Begonia and then from a few other market goers Valerian shrank down to his smaller size and flew off to go confront the wizard with a wide and grin. Of course he might not had been grinning quite so much had he had the patience to wait around for the part about Kavonn’s nearly limitless magical staff or his bizarre mastery of hair but alas Valerian as usual had waited around enough to hear what he wanted which left him just informed enough to find trouble or in the case Kavonn.

The day had started like any other for Kavonn. waking up to the chirping of whatever had nested overhead in the dusty shed he resides in to find that yet again Menu has polished off what was left of the breakfast Mye had prepared for everyone. But Kavonn was feeling in a rather morose mood today, he had spent most of the night stewing over his recent rejection by the girl he admires, Ms. Rosemary Petrucci. So, with an empty stomach and heavy mind (such a combination would send someone head-over-heels!) Kavonn set off to his favored location to repose. Around mid-morning he arrived in the small clearing in the middle of the seemingly endless woods (it's a wonder he can even find it half the time) and lifted himself upon the odd rock formation , the very same one he had enjoyed resting and playing on as a mortal. He had always felt that the rock helped him concentrate his thoughts so he often came here to reflect and meditate. He set his golden staff, that appeared to be an uncanny combination of a symbol of death and one of immortality (an elongated ankh adorned with a human skull) on the rock next to him, blinking once as the sunlight reflected a glint into his eyes. He leaned back to think but for some reason he was feeling uneasy....this was quite unusual, he was in his favorite spot...the rock was indeed a little cold and damp from the morning dew but that had never raised gooseflesh like now. "What the blazes? I cannot have comfort even in my favorite vista today! Confound it all!" Kavonn squirmed uneasily with discomfort and then he realized it was more than mere irritablity that was causing him grief but a presence of power, one not unlike that he had sensed before....Cursing, he stood immediatly, and grabbed the staff. He leaped effortlessly to the very top of the boulder to gain a more favorable view of his surroundings. After rotating once, scanning the area nervously, he finally gave in and called out to the other party who's presence was troubling him so, in a polite but loud voice. "Who is out there? I can sense you, I need not to see you to know your presence! Pardon my vociferation but I am in a mood today and do not wish to be trifled with! I mean you no harm, but do not engage me." There is no response, and this irritates Kavonn. It is bad enough that what feels like a being posesssing an amount of natural magic is near him (and such things make him nervous, since it feels like fairy magic) but the being is apparently ignoring him. Slightly annoyed now, he impatiently calls out again: "Do you intend harm ? If not, show yourself! If so, then show your pusilanimous visage before me or I shall be forced to act rashly! Appear on your own volition or I shall be forced to vitiate your body and drag you out of hiding!"
From a branch overhead, just about out of Kavonn's sight due to the brim of his hat, Valerian peers down at Kavonn with both amusement at his apparent irritation and slight confusion, he wonders " he is in the same spot that the Bensons told me about, a boulder in a clearing...but how am I to believe that this Vaudeville-clown reject is the mighty Kavonn that defeated my most beauteous Hydrangea? He's so short! it is an insult for me to even assume..." Just as he was about to finish the thought, Kavonn raises the staff skyward, and calls out one more time: "It better not be you pesky Bensons asking for a rematch! You truly do not know when to give up! Obviously Azelea was the one who inherited the rationale and the brains in the family, since there doesn't appear to be a lick of it between the three of you!" Valerian stares daggers at Kavonn for implying the object of his affections is less intelligent than her little sister, let alone anyone (even if it was a little true) Suddenly, Valerian is feeling very confident...he can surely turn the surface of that boulder red with Kavonn's innards!

High up in a tree deep in the woods miles away from civilization a small humanish looking creature covered in short black fur rested in the bow of an oak. Moss leaned against its trunk smoking a pipe with his eyes closed. Slowly he began to feel his mind stretching out. he could feel the consciousness of the tree he was sitting in, the consciousness of the trees that surrounded him for miles out, he could sense all of the creatures that walked in the woods and slowly he was able to feel the forest spirit, its Protector, a collection of all the trees in the woods and something more. Now he could begin to feel other worlds, worlds always just out of reach ones that these trees seemed to live in at the same time as they lived in this one. Moss felt smugness knowing that he was the only creature of his kind that could experience this, these were the times that made his life worth living.
All of a sudden he was aware of two creatures, both of the intellectual capacity of a human or demon on the outskirts of his forest, a tree still over the watch of the Protector must have been near enough to sense them. They appeared to be in a conflict and this concerned him. Often creatures of a humanesque mindset, when entering into this depth of the forest with such an angry feel to them had only destruction on there minds. Even though they were far enough away that he doubted they could do any harm to his particular forest he feared for the life of anything around them.
His peaceful mood being shattered along with the rest of the forest simply from the violent presence of these two creatures, he decided to go check it out. He slid down the trunk of the tree to the ground, he stood up and extended his arm to his side, a staff flew through the air and into his hand, he lifted his pipe and poured the contents into his mouth.
He seemed to melt into the ground and become a shadow. Soon he was flitting through the forest at an incredible speed until he reached his destination. Standing against a peculiar looking rock nothing more then a piece of darkness he watched the two strange beings.
The one he knew, his name was Kavonn and he had spoken to him one time (and spied on him from the tree tops on many other occasions) he was a peaceful fellow who wouldnt hurt someone who didnt deserve it or so Moss thought. He was welcome in his forest anytime. However right now Kavonn seemed particularly strange, he seemed nervous and potentially violent which seemed strange for a being of such power as Kavonn. The other one was a fairy, which wasnt a good sign. Some fairies were peaceful and harmless but others were obsessive tricky dangerous little creatures and this one in particular seemed to fit that description very well.
Well not fearing for the safety of the forest anymore, he didnt feel the need to interrupt. It was Kavonns problem now and who was he to interrupt the natural order of things? Moss settled in and watched this developing conflict with great interest.

OOC: Generally you are not supposed to speak for other people's character in an RPG. For example Valerian isn't particularly blood thirsty as much as he is mischievous since he has little in the way of combat abilities. Also unless it is stated as open to all it is good manners to ask before one enters, however since neither caused any harm lets just keep going. Welcome Moss.
Valerian, being Valerian, wasn't really sure how he was going to go about his task just that he knew he was going to do it. Painting with innards while artistically pleasing and delightfully sadistic wasn't really something Valerian had a hobby of/ever done before (though not for lack of trying in a few cases). Kavonn didn't seem to notice him yet, Valerian wondered if it has something to do with his deformed eyes. Valerian was already getting antsy, he hated waiting and really wanted to do something. Kavonn didn't look like much but Valerian didn't want to put that to the test. Humiliating Kavonn was normally more Valerian's style but Valerian in one of his brief moments of wisdom, considered that if he had beaten the Bensons it was more then likely that Kavonn could and would do bad things to Valerian if he let him. Therefore it seemed best to incapacitate him some how and make a present of him to Hydrangea. Valerian's mind was already drifting from Kavonn what came after with him delivering the wizard to Hydrangea and saying sweetly how it was all for her and how should would thank him and then go back to profusely ignoring him while she did whatever she wanted to do to Kavonn. No wait that wasn't such a good scenario after all, Valerian certainly didn't want to see that. Perhaps he could go for a walk while she had her fun and then come back later. Then Valerian worried maybe she was attracted to Kavonn, after all we do hurt those we care for most it was said. So maybe leaving them alone was not a good idea. Maybe he would just force Kavonn to apologize to her and then skip all the Hydrangea having her way with him parts. Valerian getting frustrated with how not spectacular his imagination was shaping up his reward decided to just focus on the matter and hand.
Valerian switched to his small form and then flew over and behind Kavonn going up as high as he dared. Then Valerian turned and dived down towards Kavonn at an angle so as not so smash himself onto the rock. He flapped furiously going so fast the wing hurt his cheeks a the last moment Valerian currled up into a ball and enlarged himself crashing towards the back of Kavonn's head.
As almost as an after though Valerian thought as he screamed toward Kavonn. "Oh my this is going to hurt a lot." then Valerian squeezed his eyes close and flinched anticipating connecting with Kavonn's skull and hoped for the best.

OOC: ohmy, I was unaware! quite sorry about that (as this is the first time I've actually particpated in RPG I wasn't too aware of it, I originally had that typed out differently too...and silly me I was thinking too much with an "azelea" channel with that violent part, I'm too used to my fairies being homicidal ^_^ )
Kavonn could sense that power coming closer now...where is it though? Then,his eyes widened slightly as he finally heard it: the sound of wings flapping furiously, and with that realization, in a dramatic swoop Kavonn ducked, switfly removing his hat and sending several tendrils of hair upward, caught a rather surprised looking fairy in a "hair net" before he hit the ground. Having had his target move on him so quickly, and the velocity he had picked up (and the fact that his eyes were closed) left him little time to react. Now,the unfortunate Valerian was entangled in Kavonn's hair, which he held in front of him as he inspected the newcomer with great interest. He thought to himself, "Not a Benson but certainly someone who intends to steal my hat, why else would he attempt such a kamikaze-style entrance? He is obviously after the portal!" He glared angriky at Valerian for a second, unintentionally tightening his grip and then he gathered his senses and thought again " This is not like me to jump to conclusions, perhaps this fellow is just misguided. I shall release him, but stat on my gaurd..." And with that, the hair that was wrapped around Valerian appeared to disintegrate, and he was dropped to the ground with an indignifying thud, as a few strands remained wrapped around Valerian's wings but they dissapeared as well (though a little too late for his dignity). Kavonn looked down into the grass where he had landed and adressed him in his most polite voice he could muster(while stifling some guilty giggling at his mishap, lately he had gotten into the habit of laughing at such misfortunes.) he said " Please allow me to respectfully extend my apologies, Sir, I thought you were someone else. Might I inquire what it is you need? Perhaps I can assist... the blinding haste with which you approached me denotes something of importance is at hand"

Valerian flapped his wings throwing off the last strands of hair as they feel away to nothingness and sprung into the air fluttering furiously and forcing Kavonn to look up at him which always made Valerian feel better about a situation. And reassurance was just what Valerian needed right at the moment. Valerian was in fact deeply concerned that Kavonn had tried to remove his vital organs. This meant either Kavonn was terminally stupid/suffering some metal disorder or despicably powerful to the point he didn’t actually feel threatened by Valerian. Valerian was inclined at this time to believe both based on the way Kavonn spoke, of course Valerian only understood every third word Kavonn said so he was a bit bias.
For a long moment Valerian just stared at Kavonn then said. “Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.” Stretching the word out to the utmost.
“Suspenders,” Valerian managed to blurt out while his brain caught up with his predicament. “I need you suspenders. I really, really need your suspenders.” Valerian said picking up speed as he went. “You see it is a funny story actually you see because I was traveling through the forest minding my own business when this big evil much troll (if you don’t know what muck troll is your much better off) rises up out of the well muck and says to. ‘Ay you little fairy boy ay.’ (He was Canadian you see.) ‘I’m taking over your house just as soon as I find it. Unless you give me a dozen dresses.’ Now I argued with him on this point but he was very insistent but I managed to negotiate him down to three high heeled shoes and two whole chickens. But he didn’t know what those were so in a panic I lied to him and said they were all part of gabroflang, and of course he didn’t know what that was so I told they were like suspenders but cool. So I had to fly off and try and find some now that I put myself in this dire predicament so I flew all around the forest (I suffer from this condition where this thing happens at the times) and suddenly I saw and was just going right towards when I came back too, so anyway if you could just forget everything I just said and tell me all about yourself (don't be shy on your powers and abilities) that would really work out well for everyone (be sure to include who defeated you in the past) and save baby kittens from eels yadda yadda yadda, it would really help me out a lot especially with a female problem, thanks in advance.”<br> Valerian finished throwing Kavonn the old the wink & the gun expression and looking at him egarly. While inwardly thinking to himself "Suspenders? I'm and idiot. Valerian sometimes you are an idiot!"

Staring incredulously at Valerian (quite impressed that he had been able to say all that apparently with one breath) Kavonn attempted to gather what exactly had been said to him so rapidly. "Muck troll, eh? An unsavory breed indeed...I wonder what a muck troll would need with ladie's apparrel, but who am I to question the motives of muck trolls?" Kavonn was feeling a little more than suspicious about Valerian's apparent interest in his powers, he didn't want to seem too much of a braggart either so he avoided suggesting that he take the muck troll down himself (since muck trolls are rather formidable themselves) so he decided to try and avoid bringing the matter up with some light banter and perhaps helping him cater to the whims of this muck troll that was bullying him."Well, sir. I can help you with your clothing problems, I'm afraid I cannot give you the pair I am currenntly wearing since they are indeed holding up my trousers, but I may be able to manifest almost any article of clothing to appease this garb-obsesssed troll." and to demonstrate, Kavonn waved his staff and with a few sparks, manifested a spiffy pair of suspenders onto Valerian, a black pair with skulls decorating the straps, not unlike his own. "And there can be more where that came from, I've no previous obligations today so why not help out a fellow in need? Besides, I can find common ground with a female problem, I'm afraid I'm in the same boat there so I'm not an expert in that field.Trying to warm up to her has been like melting an entire iceberg with a hairdryer"

Valerion nodded like a bobble headed doll in agreement with Kavonn. “Oh you have no idea about cold. You see the muck troll is all about dating my ex-girl friend, she was a vampire I think. And you she is all like bite me because I’ll never bite you and I’m totally getting subjective transfer blame here. And any girl I meet who isn’t an ice queen (and many who are) judges me just because I happen to be filled with negative energy and the stuff of shadows (totally ingoring that I am also a part of nature and filled with fairy goodness, [though not in a cookie sort of way more like a two stage candy] and so really am just as likely to be good as be evil [not that I have anything against evil]) by accident of my birth. It is cold like ice out there Kavonn. The lady types are just not easy to come by and harder to please. Maybe you should consider making yourself a nice girl friend or something, you know get the object of your affection jealous (I would try it myself but my woman doesn’t acknowledge my existence so it is hard to make her jealous) then get your friend to go on and on about how wonderful it is to have a other into their lives and she is sure to crack (possibly into a homicidal rage but I think that would be progress) but your sure to weather her out it till she is yours.”

OOC: Please accept my apologies as well, I suppose it has become obvious that I too am not experienced at this so please do not take offense. Also it might not have killed me to think it over a little before I became the first person to enter an RPG with two people that have webcomics of there own and are moderators here .

Ooc: that's alright, I made a few mistakes myself here, no need to worry ^_^
Kavonn pondered a bit about what Valerian had just said to him..."Make a girl to make her jealous? Ha, I don't really need to make one, I know just about every female in this area of the woods, if I were really that desperate to impress my bitter flower they would gladly help (though I know it won't be out of the goodness of their hearts, they prefer I repay them, usually with material luxuries...)but even if I could conjur myself a beauty,(which I cannot do) I would feel horrible messing with her mind like that. Her problem is her brother, who is a touch obsessive...she doesn't want to turn into him. Alright, subject change! I'm depressing myself... Let us see about taking these things to the troll then, shall we? It is probably best we get this prior obligation out of our ways before we attempt to solve the unsolvable problems with women..." And with that Kavonn motioned Valerian to lead the way to where ever this troll may be located so business could be done.

Valerian flutters with dismay momentarily drooping before her resumed his normal flapping motion. "Huh? What? Eh? Oh! Right right well here is the problem the muck troll only appears during the day and I can only go about at night. So we really can't be bothered with this night (or bothering him during the day when I cannot help you in your battle). So really there is nothing to be done at present. I'll just take these back to my place and give them to me the next time he decides to awake me up to beat the living day lights out of me. Besides you have been far to kind (really your a darling, you've already treated me better then 3 ex's and 14 family members [almost makes it a pity your a man]) and I wouldn't want to risk and violence on your person to a lasting effect such as blunt trauma from a muck troll. But um here please take this a lasting token of my affection and to remember our brief encounter and steadfast kinship."
Valerian holds out his hands in front of him and with and explosion of magical metallic dust manifests what looks to be like a limp metallic carp which jiggles like jelly. Valerian looks embarrassed and tosses the carp aside and grabs a near by shiny stone instead.
"Er here. Its...........................the best I could do in short notice. Just change it into something nice for yourself like a karaoke machine or something (just love some of that myself or I would if I ever got the chance). Thanks for allllllll the help again, oh what did you say your nifty looking staff did again specifically? This is so embarrassing I've the attention span of a gold fish (or maybe one of those other small sea creatures like plankton)."
Valerian reduces his size and start to fly away backwards slowly waving at Kavonn.

Moss had forgotten how irritating it was to be around his own kind.
He felt an angry surge run through him when the fairy referred to himself as filled with the stuff of shadows and being a part of nature, those descriptions fit him far better then it did that crazy fairy, although the part about negative energy and fairy goodness didnt seem to apply. It always seemed to bother him that he didnt get any credit for his amazing skills whenever he was around humanoids even though he resented them and it never seemed to bother him when he was alone in the forest, he briefly contemplated why this might be but gave it up as the conversation cotinued.
He hated it when people complained about there problems with women as he had never had the opportunity to have such problems. The only women he knew were huge, bald, small eared disgusting looking things who even if he were interested in wouldnt want anything to do with a short, furry, rabbit eared, fang filled man with glowing pupilless white eyes. The only women that looked remotely like him were huge predetors that saw him as prey. These two had nothing to complain about, at least they had a chance whereas he had none.
He wasnt sure if he trusted the fairy, he seemed very odd to Moss. If he spoke the truth why wouldnt he simply abandon the people who did him wrong?
Now the fairy looked like it was going to leave and Moss had made up his mind. He would stalk the creature and see if it was lying. He had not gone on a grand adventure for quite some time and stalking a person always gave him a strong sense of superiority which would cool his temper.

Kavonn eyes the rock Valerian handed him, and not really in need of rocks but not wanting to appear rude, he pockets it, while thinking: "Curious about my staff, eh? Can't blame him, it's natural for the fairy sort..I can't really say it has no power when I know they can sense it..." Then Kavonn says to Valerian "No need to rush off now, if I cannot locate you in the morning, how might I assist you? Come, let us travel to the market, I'm sure you can find something to repel that troll there, and if not you may also find something shiny to impress your lady? Either way, I had entertained thoughts of visiting today. " Kavonn pointed with his staff in the direction of the market to denote he was walking in that direction. Either way, he felt a need to leave the area...he sensed another familiar power nearby, but he decided not to adress it at this moment, as he was still staying a little on gaurd with Valerian. It wasn't that he didn't completely trust him and his story (because crazy things to seem commonplace in Kelwood) but anyone who seems that interested in his powers made him wary. Kavonn walked a few paces and looked back to see if he was following or going his own way for now.

Valerian cast a long sideward glance at Kavonn's offer but said quickly. "Okay, to the market it is!"
Valerian was not too keen on traveling with his unwitting future victim, especially because he was beginning to suspect Kavonn of being a romantic rival. It would make all to much sense in Valerian's mind that this cold female could be non-other then one of the Bensons, why else would Hydrangea be so unhappy with him unless he had come onto her in an inappropriate way. Yes of course that must have been what happened Valerian told himself.
Regardless Valerian had planned to travel to the market anyway and saw no way to ditch Kavonn without looking suspicious. A plan began to form in Valerian's mind. Kavonn's staff was clearly an item of great power. Valerian knew such things could not be come by easy but neither were they unheard of. Perhaps with Kavonn's aid and a few others he could gain an item for himself, and then when Kavonn was weary use it to defeat the wizard. But Kavonn was expecting a muck troll, he would have to divert Kavonn from his intention to fight the muck troll.
Valerian floated down onto Kavonn’s shoulder. “Well since you make such excellent company let us then be off to the market!”

*ahem* As the two walked towards the market, a little fox demon heard their footsteps. "yeeeks! they must wanna attack me and steal my treasure!" (which consisted of a few rodent bones, a battered old comb, and a very shiny piece of tinfoil.) This young fox demon (appearing around 7 or 8) leaped out of her hole, and struck a kung foo pose, uttering a low "hiiia!"

OOC: I'll allow you to come in as this is the first quest and all but!
1. I just got done saying earlier you need to ask if you can join
2. Valerian is flying only Kavonn would be making footsteps. It is a minor point but stuff like that lets people know you are reading their stuff.
3. You really should try and expand you posts a bit. I'm not saying every post need to be an epic but all two or three line posts get annoying very quickly. Your character just came in. Tell us what she looks like at the very least. I expect a little bit from your future posts. Remember we're telling a story together not writting a quick summery. Just give us a few details.

they saw before them a young fox-demon girl with brownish-red hair, ears, and tail. her green eyes blazed with anger as she saw them. she straightened up to her full height of 4' 6", and glared.

Varian was tired and hungry. Although she had been trained in 58 ways to kill, she had spent the last two weeks working as a bouncer at the Dragon�s Mane, a cheap watering hole on the edge of the demon market. The pay was bad, the food was worse, and the clientele scraped the bottom of the barrel. She had been on the door for nine hours but the night shift bouncer had yet to show up, and she was reaching the end of her patience. She was tired of bundling the various drunken creatures out the door that became too loud for even for the Mane�s staff to put up with. She was supposed to get a full meal at the end of her shift, but she never knew when that would be. She was tempted to walk out the door and forgo her last week�s pitiful wages just to be free of the cloying stink of the unwashed lesser demons that habituated the place.
She stretched languidly, pulling herself up to her full height of 5� 11�. She was tall for a Pardalis, a type of Felidae, or cat demon. Most of her littermates had been 5� 7� or 8�. She had always been a favorite of the elders, not only because of her size and speed, but also because her black and brown markings were considered the image of a successful Pardalis warrior. Hadn�t the Great Goddess herself proved her blessing by bestowing holy tabby markings upon Varian�s face? But she had a hidden defect in her heart...although she had enjoyed competing among the Felidae champions for honor and esteem, she lacked the bloodlust necessary to mark a true warrior. Although she could rip a fellow demon�s throat out in a matter of moments, she could not bring herself to do so unless she felt that it was deserved.
Because she was not convinced that the Pardalis had the holy right to kill whomever they chose she had snuck out just before her coming of age ceremony, packed her few precious belongings, and run away from the Bloody Tooth Clan. Since then she had worked at various jobs, but this one at the Dragon�s Mane was one of the worst. She had agreed to work at the Mane for two weeks and they were coming to a close; she was not sorry. She sincerely hoped that her next job would at least involve some fresh air, even if she had to catch her own mice.

OOC: Sorry I've been busy the last few days.
Valerian was deep in thought about how he was going to deal with Kavonn. Plotting and scheaming, forgetting the intricasies of his own plans and starting over again. If fact Valerian was just thinking of plan that involved a hippo when the small fox demon jumped out.
Valerian was so deep in thought that the little creatured started that he flutter backwards in a panic. He fluttered flapped and flew backwards right into Varian spraying out half formed jelly like metalic objects in various explosions of smoke and sparks.
"Skee! Die you horrible undead fairy eating fiend!!!!!!!! Someone save meeeeee! " Valerian cried.

"Hey! come back and fight me! Hey, are you listening to me!" her untied straight jacket flapped in the wind, and her ears laid back, as she lowered her head to charge. "hey, are you listening to me! heyyy!" suddenly, as she stepped forward, she got her foot stuck in a hole. "owwww! can somody somebodyhelpmepleasepleasepleasetheevilholegottaholdofmeandithurtsaniwannagetout!" her eyes changed to a lime green as she struggled, and accidentally turned to her hyper-freaky-ADD form.

Varian stepped out of the bar with a sigh of relief. Her replacement had finally shown up, she had eaten several portions of deep-fried rodent, and she was looking forward to finding a nice tree branch to stretch out on. Suddenly, a small hysterical fairy being chased by an escapee from a lunatic asylum smacked straight into her stomach.
Varian reached over and grasped the fairy by his wings, pinning them together, and tucked him under her arm. Then she reached out and rapped the fox girl sharply over the head with her fist, momentarily stunning her. She took Valerian out from the crook of her arm and held him at arms length.
“Okay, okay, calm down, I’m not going to hurt you! Just tell me the situation, maybe I can help.”

"oowww..." the young kitsune clutched a big bump on her head. "Whaddya do that for!?"
her eyes darkened to a deep green. "Oh! I'm sorry, you guys! Uhhh..."
She surveyed her surroundings, and the people in front of her.
Kavonn: (Who had followed them) Excuse, me, fox demon, who are you? You seem to be having a... problem with this little fairy, and myself!
"oh, sorry, that was most likely my alter ego, I am a little insane ^__^ ;;;"

Kavonn surveyed the newcomers with great interest, then settled his eyes back on the young Fox girl before him. "Alter ego? Interesting...you are in the right mind now, I hope..." and then he turned to the other new arrival, the Felidae . Of coures it was in Kavonn's nature to be a hopeless flirt with anything that resembled a female (unless it looked underage as the fox demon appeared to be to him...) And with a tip of his hat and a nod, he said " Salutations, Madam! How might you be on this fine morning?" (of course he always laid the charm on thick around the ladies) then noticing Valerian still in her hands, he realized something must have happened shortly before his arrival to get him in that particular predicament, as he blushed slightly and said "Oh...he's with me, he's alright...."

"uhhh... hey? i dont beleive we've been introduced?!" Kcattah said. She thout the strange boy with the hat and funky suspenders was very cute! ;D he also had a peculiar aura. not totally demonic, but not human, either! those slits under his eyes were intreaging (sp?), as well. "I'm Kcatta!!!" she smiled and put out her hand, which reached about up to Kavonn's stomach. OOC: I DO think Kavonn is irrisitably (sp?) cute, and that his suspenders are awesome! ;D ;D ;D

The small fairy that Varian held was unresponsive, so she looked up to see that someone else had arrived on the scene. The newcomer looked familiar to Varian...she had seen him at the market before, but had never met him. He seemed to be in a much more reasonable state of mind than either the fairy or the fox demon, so she answered his question with equal courtesy.
“I was fine until these two ran into me....it looked like this fox demon, Kcatta, was it? was trying to kill this fairy. I’m not sure if he’s all right, he seems to be stunned or something.”
She gave the fairy a little shake...
“Are you OK? Hello....”
