Borissomeone's Tales of Thera (Fan Fiction)

**Borissomeone** · October 26, 2009, 08:45 PM

Quick question, is there a list of names i could use for characters for the men of Demos. It just doesn't feel right calling someone Barry or Joe...please feel free to suggest names. Cheers

If you look into the descr_names file in your Thera folder under the faction saxons, you'll see all you want.

Thanks, only one small problem. I do most of my writing at work now....during breaks of course

. So if anyone would be kind enough to share with me that would be great. Cheers.

A snippet from the next part.

'The Legionarri drifted through the forest, a light mist ebbed its way between the trees as the Romuli headed towards the camp of the men of Demos. The Legionarii had smeared themselves with dirt, grease and bits of twigs hung from their armor, now looking like ghosts from some long ago battle risen from their graves. The men guarding the picket’s lines were weary the night almost over, most hoping for some sleep before the chase resumed. A patrol ambled past, theirs eyes heavy under their helms, mist swallowing them as they disappeared into the night. The patrol made their way around the camp, other guards and patrols coming and going. Weaving their way through the dense trees they never saw the men suddenly rise up out of the thick undergrowth blades quickly finding targets as the patrol seemed to be swallowed up by the ground. Wiping his blade on a fallen Demos dog Maximus, Anthony and their fifty grim Legionarri continued on.'

Thankyou Mr Templar, it was fun to write. In the next part the fool Muckus will meet his end, not sure 100% how yet but thinking about something good.

**GrumpyBean** · October 30, 2009, 06:19 PM

AAwwwww that muckus is going to get reamed big time lol

Bad boy

Im printing this out and making a little collection of mine lol....i couldn't resist.

EDIT: I think Muckus should go with the horsemen for awhile then try to escape during the night. He makes his escape then finds himself in the hands of some not so nice people if you catch my drift....

Oh also when V3 comes out hopefully ill get some screenies in for your awesome story. if im not already beaten to it

Yeap Muckus will meet his end soon, but i like the idea of him falling into the wrong hands....something to ponder. I'm trying not to get a big head

, but are you printing my story so far? If so...well thats really cool

. Feel free to add screenies when you can since I've not mastered the art. Cheers.

**Borissomeone** · November 05, 2009, 07:20 PM

Hello, next part please enjoy. This part is about Muckus and in his opinion, his own untimely death. Thanks to Grumpybean who gave the idea about him falling into the wrong hands. I was going to have him fight to the death against Anthony or Maximus but liked the other idea better. Cheers.

‘Muckus’

The Harsh sun glared down on Muckus, sweat dripped off his sharp nose, he waited for his fate to be decided, he sat tied to a tree on the side of the road leading back to Arretium, the thick forest at his back mocked him with its offers of cool shade and a place to hide if he managed to escape, a single Legionarii stood guarding him as the other men of the Fifth Legion and the newly arrived mounted Legionarii planned their next move. The guard didn’t look at him; not wanting to talk to the coward, this suited Muckus as he tried to release a hidden knife, most of the Legion didn’t consider him a threat, which again suited Muckus. He had some fine tutors on top of the usual training the Legions went through, and when he had bothered turning up to classes he did well. Muckus was competent with his gladius, but his true love lay with knife fighting, having spent his youth brawling, taking what he wanted and sometimes killing in the streets of Arretium, his family having the funds to cover any murders that might have caused problems for him. Muckus had grown up believing he could buy his way out of any situation, and when money didn’t work for him, his thugs would always make sure they found their problematic friend alone, making quick work of them, so now Muckus sat and thought hard on how or what he would do to get out of this little mess. Muckus knew that if he made it back to Arretium his family would make sure he disappeared until things settled, either that or his family was on good terms with a local assassins guild who could make his problems melt into the night. The knife finally came free; he quickly cut the bonds that held him as the foolish guard looked the other way.

Vibius waited in the hot sun as the fool Muckus sat tied to the tree, he hoped someone would come soon to relieve him from this boring task, I should just cut the fools throat, no one is paying any attention to us, he thought to himself, day dreaming about being the hero who slew the traitor Muckus. A slight sound from behind and Vibius’s day dreaming came to an end as Muckus’ knife slipped into his neck.

Muckus stood looking down at the dead Legionarii, dust and the sound of hundreds of men drowned out any sound he’d made. Thick blood dripped from his blade, looking around and seeing no one else about Muckus slipped into the trees, the shade a blessing after sitting in the sun, taking a drink from the water stolen from Vibius’ body he set off. Muckus hoped to now make his way back to the city and headed off in the direction he thought was the right one, unfortunately for Muckus he missed the class on how to tell the difference between east and west and now made his way towards the army of the Demos.

Muckus made his way through the forest, where is that damn road? He thought to himself as he staggered again, tripping on yet another root, the sun would soon fade as night reclaimed the sky from its bright friend. Muckus stopped and leaned against a large tree, wishing trees could provide more than shade, maybe one that leaked cool wine or had buxom women for fruit. As Muckus stood there his eyes closed as he dreamed of trees that leaked wine and had woman for the taking silent figures came upon him, clad in drab robes armed with maces and small shields, the priests of Callisto had found a new victim for their foul arts. Muckus sensed he wasn’t alone any more, he cracked his eyes open to find a grinning skull staring at him, reaching for his knife he tried to scramble backwards away from this walking nightmare. The priest’s mace smashed into Muckus shoulder, knocking him down to one knee, the next blow sent him into darkness.

Muckus awoke naked, his shoulder and head a mass of pain, one arm hung at his side and the other was free, his knife bound to his hand so he was unable to let go of the blade,again bound to a tree.Thepriestsstood around him watching, not saying anything. The setting sun casting everything in harsh colours, the priests started droning, a low horrible sound, Muckus pissed himself, other warriors came out of the gloom as the droning continued.

Toke stared at the lone Legionarii bound to the tree, the priests had already made a mess of him, his face covered in blood and one arm useless. His army was camped in the surrounding forest; the priest’s had come from the city Demos, somehow sensing that their fellow priest’s had met an untimely end at the battle of The Lonely Hill fort, turning up to replace their fallen comrades.
‘Tell me about your remaining men, where are they and how many live? Answer this and I’ll let you live and not let these dark men have their way with you,’ Toke said to the now trembling man. Muckus gazed at him, his mind thick with pain, he looked at the moaning skull faced priests, noticing a small bug fly into one dark eye socket and out the other, Muckus tried to speak.

Toke looked at the man moaning before him, trying to talk, but the priests of Callisto had hit him too hard, the man made no sense, oh well better luck with the next one, Toke thought.
‘He’s yours,’ Toke told the dark priests, not wanting to watch whatever foul practices they were about to perform, Toke walked off pondering whether he should continue the chase or send for more men. Toke knew he was in the lands of the Romuli now and the risk of finding another Legion in the area didn’t sit well with him.

Muckus watched as his arm started to rise, of its own accord, pain and the droning filling his head, the arm with the knife bound to it drifted across to his hanging arm. The blade sliced into his arm peeling off a sliver of flesh; again it sliced, more flesh dropping off as Muckus slowly skinned himself alive. Droning and mangled screams greeted the night; the moon rose above the lands of Thera as Muckus drew his last breaths, Muckus died half skinned by his own hand, naked and alone. Muckus last thought was, why like this, he wasn’t a bad person was he? Was he?

He was indeed a scumbag, even I'm glad he's dead and I made him up

P.S - @GrumpyBean I had a look at your pic's in your profile, got to say nice work sir.
