Deimos walked over to where Vadkskye was.
Deimos: What happened?
Vadskye: That tree... ate Silver.
Deimos: That's just it, then.
Vadskye: What?!
Deimos: I'm leaving. This war is nothing but several quests for revenge, and there's nothing to fight for. Vadskye, don't you realize that this is not about new spam vs. old spam anymore?
Vadskye: You have a point.
Deimos: Let's see, this war consists of a dead gnome, a vengeful shadow mage, a theiving angel, a surprised mage, a deranged spam necromancer, a vengeful time mage that follows the above necromancer, and a confused magog. You're the only normal one, and I think that you're confused too. There's no point in this war continuing. I wonder what Woock will say.
Vadskye: About Woock... he is either dead or fled.
Deimos: That's it then. I bid you farewell.
Deimos walked off in the direction of the sinking sun.
A minute later...
Vadskye watched Deimos walk until he couldn't be seen anymore, and then turned to go. Then he heard a thump, a yell, and a whoosh. Before he knew it, Deimos was lying sprawled in front of him.
Vadskye: Deimos?
Deimos: AAAAHH!!!!!! Mad cow disease!
Vadskye: What the heck are you talking about?
Deimos looked behind Vadskye, and hid behind a tree. Vadskye looked to see what Deimos was looking at, and saw a horned cow running at full speed, mooing.
Vadskye: Translato bovi.
Vadskye's translating spell enabled him to understand the cow. It was Romana, and she was charging at Deimos.
Romana: YOU! LURE ME TO THAT IDIOTIC CAVE UNDER FALSE PRETENCES! MALL INDEED!
Deimos: Well, you fell for it.
Romana: YOU'LL BE SORRY YOU MET ME, YOU MAGOG!
Deimos: Now really! Enough is enough!
Romana: All right, you've been punished enough.
She turned back into herself.

Vadskye: You know Deimos, you have a point. Romana, MM, and I are really the only normal people. You have two options: To leave and let them all kill each other, or to try to fix them up. You seem to have decided to leave them to die, and that is a valid choice, but I will stay with them to try to save them from themselves. I'm going to continue wandering now. Good luck, Deimos."

OOC: Demios, that last post has got to be the best representation of SPAM I've seen yet.
*Mighty Mage and Gorman set out now with the Shadow Mage long gone. Unknown to them are the perils waiting around every corner. As they continue their trek through the forest onto the mountains, Mighty Mage can think of only one thing, besides his growing hunger. How can he stop what is about to happen. How can he really prevent the plans that RSF intends on fulfilling. What of Dingo? Can he be trusted anymore or has RSF weaved him into his web of lies and deciet. Even more, what if his newfound power has corupted him. What then? All this and more continues to run through his head they walk to their destination*
Gorm: You've got somthing on your mind. Are you troubled?
Mighty Mage: No more than usual I suppose. I'm always worried about somthing. This time though...
*What Mighty Mage wanted to say was that he was for the first time completly unsure of the outcome. He was part of an elite group of mages sworn to peace keeping but this was the first time when the others were not with him. Under normal circumstances this may have been enough to be considered an alarm for national security. This was however, out of the mages jurisdiction they claimed. They had told Mighty Mage when he informed them of his extended stay that he was not to interfere with this. Mighty Mage knew better though. He knew that if somthing could be done to stop this that at least it should be attempted. Now he was unsure. Had he chosen the right path? Without the Order's support Mighty Mage had in fact become not so mighty. And what of his companion? Somthing about the Archangel had troubled him since their meeting. Suppose Dingo and RSF convinced him to join them. What then? Was Mighty Mage supposed to stand up to an angel as well?*
Gorm: You don't say much do you?
Mighty Mage: I'm just thinking is all.
Gorm: What's there to think about? We find the wizard and the spam god and we go from there.
Mighty Mage: It's a lot more complicated than you make it sound. The spam god, Dingo can summon mass ammounts of dark creatures at his will. With the combined powers of RSF they're almost invincible.
Gorm: You've got magic. Why can't you stop the Time Mage before he pulls any of his tricks?
Mighty Mage: It's not that simple. There are many schools of magic besides the four elements most always speak of. The elements alone are part of two seperate magics. RSF is a master of time, meaning he can move quicker than most, stop us in our tracks, speed up any of those creatures, and other skills as well. Besides, I'm sure he can do more. Most Time Mages have some Black Magic skills as well, one of the groups containing mastery over the elements. If we go barging in there who's to say he wont cast an accelerated lightning spell or somthing like that.
Gorm: You see, you worry way too much. Why not stop thinking about it and just take care of things as they go. If he tries to use his speed, place a quicksand or somthing. Simple as that. Take things as they go. If you spend the rest of your life worrying about every little detail than you will find yourself more unprepared than when you started.
Mighty Mage: I suppose. I'd still like to be prepared though. It's not my goal to be killed the moment we walk through the door.
Gorm: Maybe you were better off when you wern't talking.
*So the two continue on, Mighty Mage thinking to himslf, all the while Gorm making plans of his own. Some of which did not involve his new companion*

The wolf watched the angel and the wizard talking.
It was so intent on their words that you would almost think it understood them.
When the mage mentioned the Time Wizard it froze, not breathing.
Then as the two moved on it paded away silently on the forest floor.
Abruptly it melted into an eagle's form and took off into the sky with a sharp cry.
It needed to find a cure badly.
Perhaps this time wizard could help somehow, if he could be found.

*as MM babbled about the difference between Dark and Black magic I noticed a peculiar figure watching us from underneath some foliage near the outskirts of the forest. It appeared to be a wolf, but as I watched it, it appeared to have the most extremelly intellegent look upon it. I watched as it turned and trotted back into the woods. A couple seconds later an eagle came soaring out of the forest with a sharp cry. It looked upon us as I watched it fly away*
MM: Hey! Are you listening to anything I've said?
Gorman: *hastily* Yes my friend yes. Tell me something, can your magic understand animal language? There's something about that eagle that...seems....different.
MM: What do you mean?
Gorman: I mean that bird seemed almost....humane...
*at this point MM started to think myself crazy, there was no doubt about that. I gave a great leap into the air and quickly followed the eagle's flight. I had almost caught up to it when it's head swiveled around and it gave a surprise squak! I got over it and easily matched its pace. I gently came over top of the creature and with a quick thrust pinned its wings to its sides. It attempted to free itself by biting at my hands with its sharp beak*
Gorman: Let me warn you, if you are human, that I'll snap your neck if such actions continue!
*Surprisingly, the bird DID stop. I flew back towards where MM stood and told him to see if he can try and figure out if this animal is actually humane or not*

Mighty Mage: Hey, what's that? Did you catch yourself a little snack?
Gorman: Not quite. I think this eagle is more than an eagle. In fact, I don't even think its an eagle at all.
Mighty Mage: No...no, it's definatly an eagle.
Gorman: No, that wolf that was watching us in the bushes, I think that was the eagle...I mean, I think the wolf changed into the eagle.
Mighty Mage: Like a morpher or something?
Gorman: Yeah, something like that.
Mighty Mage: Well if it is than maybe you shouldn't eat it.
Gorman: I wasn't going to. Speaking of which, you never told me if you could talk to it.
Mighty Mage: Hmmmm, that would require some sort of beastmaster skills. I can however, talk to it telepathicly, assuming it can think and understand.
Gorman: Well try than.
Mighty Mage: I don't have to. It's speaking loud and clear to me.
Gorman: What are you talking about? I don't hear it.
Mighty Mage: Telepathicly you dolt. I suppose if it directed it's waves to you you could hear it as well.
Gorman: Well, what's he saying?
Mighty Mage: He says his changing abilities came as the result of an accident. His illusionary skills accidently combined with some of his other skills. He can no longer retain a human form. Only animal forms.
Gorman: Soooo, what does he want with us?
Mighty Mage: He thinks RSF can change him back.
Gorman: The time mage?
Mighty Mage: Yeah. I don't know. Maybe he thinks RSF has some special animal changing back into human skill.
Gorman: You made that up.
Mighty Mage: Of course I did. Besides, I don't even think that power exists.
Gorman: You should tell him what we know.
Mighty Mage: What. You mean the fact that RSF is a crazed maniac and would probably maim and eat the poor guy before he helps him?
Gorman: I meant the fact that he just knows time spells...but that works too. Yeah, that definatly works.
Mighty Mage: You think we should bring him with us?
Gorman: Why? What could he do that could possibly benefit us?
Mighty Mage: He might be able to turn into a dragon or somthing. That could be helpful.
Gorman: I don't know. I think we should ditch him and worry about finding Shadowcaster.
Mighty Mage: The shadow mage? You still want to find him?
Gorman: He'd probably be of more help than the chicken here.
*At that moment the eagle transformed into his wolf form. As he jumped to the ground he began to growl at Gorman.*
Gorman: Hey...down...down boy. Please?
Mighty Mage: I think you made him mad.
Gorman: You mean he can understand us?
Mighty Mage: Of course he can. He just can't talk.
Gorman: Great....WAIT, Not great. What if he can turn into a dragon. I don't want to be dragon chow.
Mighty Mage: He seems meek enough. Just treat him with a little more respect.
Gorman: Fine. But that doesn't mean he's going with us.
*GROWL*
Gorman: Well...maybe for a little while.

*great, I thought, now I get to be known as the traveling circus! A mage that can telepathicly talk to animals, and an animal that can shape shift. What's this world coming too?*
MM: Are you still thinking about Shadowcastor?
Gorman: No. I know he is lost to those that we seek to destroy. He shall just be...how do you say...a casualty of war?
*MM looks at me and shudders as though I'm a deluded maniac. Heck, maybe I am. All I know is that I'm here for one purpose...until further notice that is. And that is to find and destroy this new god. I look at the shapeshifter and notice it studying me. I think to myself that I wish I wouldn't have gone and caught the blasted thing! I often find myself wondering why such actions are taking place. Does it have a purpose that I caught the shapeshifting animal? Is there a purpsoe as to why I'm with this "Mighty Mage"? Only time shall tell in my case. We walk for what seems like miles across open terain. A large grassy plain w/scarce trees. Eventually, we come to a secluded patch of woods, being late in the day, I suggest we camp here. After eating a hearty meal, the Mage and Shapeshifter rest. I have told them that I'd take the watch so as nobody sneaks into our camp whilst they sleep. The crackling of the embers makes the night seem more peaceful. As the wind dies down and the cool night air sets in...all is quiet...*

After an hour or two of rest I wake up and trot over to the angel, sitting down on my haunches beside him. He ruffles my ears.
Gorman: 'What's the matter buddy? Can't sleep?'
Grrr. Ruffling my ears like some dog! Next thing he'll be giving me a collar and a water bowl with my name on it. I give his hand a little nip, just to show that I'm not some tame poodle.
You know featherbrain. We'll get on a lot better if you stop treating me like a pet. I have a human mind you know.
Gorman: Sure you do buddy. Now why don't you get some more rest. We're gonna do some hard travelling tomorrow.
Damn stupid angel scratches my ears again. Does he think I'll roll over so he can scratch my belly next?
I'm a wolf. I'm nocturnal. It's kinda built in. And my name is Dean, not buddy. I'm gonna rest again soon, I just wanna look about, see if I can learn anything useful
Gorman: Okay....Dean (sarcastic grin - grrrr) Just don't get lost alright.
Get lost? Get lost! I couldn't get lost in a forest if I tried, there's so many scents about they're better than a map for telling me where I am.
What I really want to do is experiment with something I may have figured out. I find a small pool of water close by, with the moon reflecting off it.
I scan the trees above intently, waiting for something - there. A shadow moves above and now I can make out the shape of an owl, rotating it's neck, looking for a midnight snack. Now to see if I'm right.
Here goes.
Fixing the image of the owl firmly in my mind I concentrate on becoming the owl. From it's flat face and big round eyes, to it's dark feathers and sharp talons. The only clue I have is a tightness in my skin.
Opening my eyes I'm astounded! It's almost as bright as day! The moon above burns like the sun, and the reflection in the water doubles the effect. So this is how owls see in the dark. Bending over the pool I am confronted by two huge orange owl's eyes. My eyes. It worked. If I have seen an animal and can will myself into being that animal, I can assume it's form. Maybe if I can find a dragon - from a safe distance - then the next time angelboy scraches my ears I can turn him into a feather mattress.
Changing back into the wolf body I pad back to the fire, lying down with my tail under my chin and sleep again. The angel is still sitting where I last saw him. I wonder whether I should tell the mage and angel about this discovery, but I've only been with them for a day. Maybe later.
One thing it's easier to do as an animal is fall asleep. Within seconds the wolf by the fire is dreaming......

OOC: Why does this remind me of Animorphs? Anyway, BIC:
Vadskye: "You know, I haven't eaten the old spam in a long time. It might taste good. Let's go!"
Vadskye, Deimos, and Romana set out to the Chaos fort. After about half and hour, they arrive.
Vadskye: "Well, it looks like it's getting dark out. Who's hungry?"
Deimos: "I could use some food myself."
Romana: "Ooh! I want Burger King!"
Vadskye and Deimos stare at Romana.
Vadskye: "Um, we don't have any fastfood nearby. How about I make you a burger?"
Romana: "Okay... but it had better be good!"
Vadskye: "I'll do my best. Deimos, what do you want?"
Deimos: "I don't care, Magogs don't have taste buds."
Vadskye: "That stinks. You don't know what you're missing! Oh well. I'll do what I can. I should be done in about a minute."
Deimos: "A minute? Nobody can cook that fast!"
Vadskye has already started preparing the food. Hazy shapes appear in the air, then they begin to solidify. Hamburger buns, meat, and tomatoes begin to appear.
Romana: "No onions!"
Vadskye grunts in responce and arranges the shapes in the generic hamburger organization. Then, they solidify. Vadskye grabe the finished hamburger out of the air and places it on a plate.
Deimos: "Then again, who said anythink about cooking?"
Vadskye chuckles and begins to compose a unrecognizable lump of gray matter. Soon, it solidifies and plops down onto a plate.
Deimos: "You know, it's a good thing I don't have taste buds."
Vadskye: "That there is the healthiest food on the planet."
Vadskye then makes spaghetti for himself the same way. After supper, Deimos and Romana turn in. Vadskye goes outside to get a breath of fresh air before doing the same. An owl hooted nearby. Vadskye sighed contentedly and then went back in the fort to his bed.

In the morning...
Deimos: We've eaten now. What do you think we should do?
Vadskye: I'll leave that decision up to you.
Deimos: We've got 2 options. Look for Shadowcaster, or go after Dingo.
Romana: Let's look for Shadow. On the way, we might find Burger King!
Vadskye: ROMANA! We should think about rescuing Shadow, but finding Dingo and RSF is more important.
Deimos: I like your idea better, Vadskye.
Romana: NO! I PROTEST! ROAGORAAHH!
She turned into a bear.
Vadskye: Burger King's bad for you.
Romana: Oh.
So, the genrals set off to the cursed forest, where Vadskye knew Dingo and RSF were, because he scryed for them.
While walking through the forest...
Deimos: I smell something.
Vadskye: What?
Deimos: Follow me.
They followed Deimos, and found MM, Gorman, and Dean.
Deimos: Well, you're here.
MM: We are. Got a problem with that?
Vadskye: There's no reason to be agressive. Anyway, Dingo and RSF are here. I scryed them.
MM: Do you know anything about animal transformations?
Vadskye: Why?
MM pointed to the dog.

OOC: a character doesn't have to use thought to communicate with me. I can understand speech - unless you want to 'whisper' so no-one else will hear.
I give him a wolfish grin. Well, in this form all my grins are wolfish, but I wide beam the thought so everyone can hear.
And let me tell you one more thing little thief-wizard
Vadskeye: What's that?
I make a sudden lunge for his arm. Grabbing it in my jaws hard enough to hurt, but not break the skin.
I am not a dog!
Vadskeye: Whoah, let go. Okay dammit you're not a dog.
I let go and he snatches his arm back, massaging it. I survey his companion. A magog from the smell, even if I couldn't see him the smell of sulphur and ash would give him away.
Tight-beaming a thought to Angelboy and the Mage I ask:
Do you two know these guys? There seems to be a bit of an atmosphere. And THINK you're answer if they're hostile, lets not give them any advantages. And until I say so, don't tell them I can switch shapes okay?

*The unholy one ventures from his underground masoleum, he studies his surroundings.
Unholy One: Ugh. Trees. I Was buried in a desert. Not a rain forest.
*taking his poisonous katar, he stabs in deep into the fertile soil. A Green fire spreads throughout the forest floor and up the trees, reducing them to nothing but cinders. In mere minutes, the lush green forest is reduced to a ash covered graveyard.*
Unholy One; Thats more like it. Now to find the mortals..
*He walks throughout the ashes, the cinders crunching underneath his feet. A female deer who somehow survived the destruction wanders cautiously past the unholy one. The dark aura catches on to the deer, freezing it in its tracks. He turns around and faces the deer. He grins underneath his dark cloak and jabs the katar deep into the deers throat. Its eyes burn out, as its life is extinguished. The Unholy One bends down and places the dark cloak over the deer, enclosing it within. Unearthly shreiks emit from underneath, blood seeps out from the cloak, when the unholy one lifts up, nothing is left of the deer except scattered bones and blood.*
Unholy one: Ahh...that will quench my thirst for now.
