Chapter 1: the academy

Name: Palandir
Specialty: Teleportation, Runes, and Light Magic

*realizes that he didn't want to come here in the first place, but came at the recommendation of a friend*

"I just hope the headmaster isn't a sorcerer..."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first person he meets is Shade, one of his faction's enemy, the Shadow. He can't wait to learn his first Bolt of Light spell so he can knock him out, at least temporarily...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He goes into his Runes class and learns a few symbols. He then writes girith (freezing), written in runes, on Shade's door. He steps back when he hears the frozen scream from inside.

He then looks at the sun and realizes the ice will soon melt. Oh, well...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later...
The ice has melted. Palandir takes a crash course in Barriers, just in case Shade tries to retaliate.

Not having heard from Shade in a while, he begins to wonder if he accidentally killed him...

Palandir wonders if the Alchemists are closer to the Light or Shadow, and hopes it's Light. He looks around and realizes how empty the academy seems...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He decides that, while nobody is looking, he will escape from this place. He starts to run, but realizes that there are still guards at the end of the hall.

"I know! I'll use a teleport spell!"

He then remembers that he has not yet taken this class. A light is on at the end of the hallway, and he enters Teleportation Class.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Palandir then goes to Spell Writing class, and makes a spell that will allow the holder to teleport directly to him from anywhere upon saying the word Meldir. He hopes that it won't fall into the wrong hands.

He wonders...
"Meldir!"

His spell is not sure what to do with that kind of thing, because Palandir cannot logically return to himself, so it simply takes him out of existence altogether.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While floating in space, he realizes that he has been carrying a sample scroll from the Spell Writing teacher. He says the keyword and is quickly returned to reality, where the surprised teacher is staring at him from the front of the classroom.

He says, "I see that you have been using my spell."

Palandir does not respond, but just sits there, his face red with embarrassment. He finally gathers enough courage to talk.

"I wanted to learn a bit more...considering this is my specialty..."

"All right...our next lesson is 'Teleporting Out of Reality.' "

Palandir leans back in his chair and groans.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After being transported in and out of existence 17 times, Palandir finally gets the hang of it.

He then learns that it is possible to teleport from class to class without having to go through the halls. He learns how to do this, then zaps off to Alchemy.

Alchemy and Magical Herbs are combined this week. Palandir meets a fellow magician there, Caldis. She also specializes in Light, but seems more interested in the elements than teleportation. Since she is the only light-magician there that he can see, he gives her the teleport scroll he made.

(Who wants to play Caldis? I basically already outlined the name/specialties.)

Shade comes out of his room with an icecicle on his nose "I am going to kill palndir even if it's the last thing I do..." Thus begins the the rivalry of Shade and Palndir... smile Shade is walking to his alchemy classes and trips Palndir since they pass eachother in the hall "I love having I rival." Shade says in Palndirs ear then slips on a. banana and drops a demon concealing orb and it breaks realeasing the demon which begins to attack Palndir "I feel so bad for you Palndir" Shade mutters. "Oh Palndir, the Wizard Duels are next week, I challenge YOU! Up for the fight? Or are you chicken?"

Just so you know, the Headmaster has a deep, DEEP dark secret later in the game... But our Rivalry might end...

SmartIrishKid · 2009-03-26 21:34:40

"I accept the challenge!"

*casts a spell at the minion, which is then teleported in front of Shade and starts attacking him*

"You shall see the power of the Light!"

A sudden bright light fills the hall; when it fades, Shade's minion lies dead on the hall, Shade is stunned, and Palandir is gone. However, he has left a note which reads:

That's what you get for being absent two days! I have advanced a rank since you've been gone!

Oh, lemme guess...
He is your father.

SmartIrishKid · 2009-03-26 21:47:00

Palandir appears later in the lunch room, after having been at the Class of Light. He prepares to cast a giant bolt at Shade. Caldis looks on at the happenings in astonishment.

No. Much much darker... Mua ha ha ha!!!

Shade jumps up and shoots a bolt of lightning at Palandir knocking him over thenn disappears and then reappears on the table laughing menicingly then holds out the teleportation scroll. "Did you drop this?" then Shade is Immediatley strangeled by vines coming from the ground and breaking the table and is forced to drop the scroll to try to pry the vines off him. (No, this is not your spell Palandir!). "Help, me... If you don't, you wouldn't be able to torture me any more..." Shade goes limp right after muttering one last thing, "And, I was at the school longer than you. "

SmartIrishKid · 2009-03-27 10:07:36

Caldis, being very compassionate by nature, begs Palandir to help Shade in some way. Palandir, who is still recovering from the lightning bolt, is somewhat reluctant. He pries the vines off of Shade, but they are now attacking him. He is being choked...

"A-Chaldis! Ai e-Ngail!" he shouts and lets loose an orb of flaming light, which sets the vines on fire. He then remembers to use his abilities and teleports behind the creature to sever it at the roots. However, it whirls around and grabs him, and he is knocked unconscious.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Suddenly, bolts of ice, acid, fire, and lightning come out of nowhere. It has forgotten Caldis! The monstrous plant is frozen in place, eaten through, burned up, and electrocuted. The lightning also cuts the stem, so it finally falls over, withered and dead.

Before the vines can start to grow again, another wizard comes in. Poppy the Alchemist quickly puts together a mixture and applies it to the roots, thus killing the plant once and for all.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The lunch room has been set back in order. Everyone is all right except for Shade, who has not moved since his final taunt to Palandir. We have yet to see whether he is still alive...

(Oh, by the way, Palandir should technically have an acute accent on the i: Palandír. However, it is easier just to type Palandir.)

Chapter 2: the discovery

In his spare time, Palandir is writing several teleport spells. From rumors than have been going around, he thinks he knows who is responsible for the plant mishap, but he is not sure. He only needs a bit of proof...

He goes into one of his classes and learns how to turn himself invisible. He then realizes that the headmaster's room not only has motion detectors, but heat sensors. He then remembers a friend who could be able to help...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Caldis has equipped him with an elemental ice spell that will reduce his heat level to room temperature. She warns him that it will wear off after a couple hours and he may have to learn it if he wants to use it repeatedly. With this in mind, he is off to the elemental school.

Having learned the spell, he then sneaks into the headmaster's office and takes a look around. He notes a lump of plant matter in the corner, confirming his suspicions. On the desk is an envelope that has the word Mirrind e Thaur on it. Ring-jewel the Great, he realizes. Or Ring-jewel the Abhorred. But what is that? Out of curiosity, he opens the envelope...which is empty!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All of a sudden, he hears a noise behind him. It is the headmaster, and he is muttering in Shadowspeak. Palandir covers his ears because it is so horrible. Then the headmaster starts saying the same thing in Common Wizardish.

"Im Istaur han gara! Er almir ortherad!"
"I, Knowledge-master, have it! One jewel to conquer!"

Palandir is just pondering this, when the headmaster turns his head and looks directly at him! How can he see him when he is invisible? Luckily, being in the world of Invisibility, there is fog everywhere, and he cannot see Palandir properly. Palandir has just enough time to escape before the headmaster grabs him! He is free!

Back in his room, he realizes―the headmaster had been wearing a golden ring with a dark red stone in it!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So that is the Mirrind e Thaur! It is a ring that will give the wearer great power, invisibility, ability to see both the physical and the invisible, and practically limitless magical ability! The headmaster is trying to use it to take over the world! How it has come into his hands none can tell...

Palandir realizes that the headmaster must not be completely used to the ring yet, because otherwise, if he had wanted, he could have caught him. He doesn't have much time to thwart the plans!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Palandir calls a council, with Caldis, Poppy, and several other light magicians.

"There is a matter of great importance at hand. This must be kept a secret."

He then tells them the whole story, of how he had found out the headmaster's plans. They are all dismayed when he tells them of the plan to take over the world using a powerful ring that would seem to make the wearer unbeatable.

"So, does anyone have any ideas?"

Shade comes out of the Infirmary and knocks on Palandir's door and when Palandir opens the door Shade says "Thanks, I guess... You saved my life at lunch yesterday. What was that thing? I checked the beastiarys and spellbooks in the library and there wasn't anything like it besides DeathRoots. But, those are only summoned by Necromancers, who could have done that? Also, I agree to help you, I heard you but I was paralyze." Shade sits down on Palandir's bed. "I have a broken arm from that attack and I have to take private classes in my room now, from the Headmaster. I just HATE him, everytime I see him a chill goes down my spine. Well bye for now. Our rivalry will return, I should heal by the Wizard duels." Shade get up and leaves the room and turns to his room.

(What if we studied the spellbooks in the library and practiced in the student training room?)

SmartIrishKid · 2009-03-27 21:25:31

"Shade, I have bad news for you. We are discussing it in the conference room over there."

keikij · 2009-03-27 21:27:29

Just pretend it was the next day!

SmartIrishKid · 2009-03-27 21:30:43

OK! The next day, all I described above happened at the council. We now pick up where we left off, when Palandir had just asked for ideas.

"...Anyone?"

"What if we snuck into the Library of the Banned Arts? I would need some people to distract the Headmaster and the school staff. The rest of the teachers are in cahoots with him. The Book of Time is in there and has time spells. Also the Book of Legends. And, the prophecy might come in handy. There might be something about defeating him.

SmartIrishKid · 2009-03-27 21:36:53

The crowd of Empyreals remains silent. They are still in shock at Palandir's news.

Are you even listening to the plot I've set up?

Shade runs out of the room and returns scroll and reads off it, "Kaforn tun, flynt(just random jibberish I made up.)" A portal opens in the room and Shade says "This will lead to a place where we might meet our death. This is a portal to *Please choose a name SmartIrishKid! I'm not good with names for places!*, the fabled *Or names for magical objects!*."
