Thread: Elf Rps

post rei-sith encounter Night had fallen on the surface. the fatigued elven envoy had set up camp under Maryel's orders, trying to trek this far in a day during summer with the majority of her warriors in heat was crazy. a night's respite and a more idle pace in the morning. they could afford a day lost. outside the camp perfectly melded to the shadows was the drow raiding party. by now the unease of just what they were doing and why they were doing it was starting to weigh down on the drow warriors. clearly they had orders from their matron, clearly habisai was giving them different orders, habisai had told them their objective, but she was clearly lying to them. whatever transpired soon would either result in them walking into a slaughter or having flayed hides at the cruel hands of their matrons back home. Rei-sith wasn't talking, and refused to make eye contact with habisai, clearly habisai deduced something that rei-sith would rather keep secret. she seemed so exited when she did. the hardened and calculating scout seemed uncharacteristically different, distracted even. something happened on the surface? too much sun? Lloth knew what damage long term exposure could to a drow. Most of the drow warriors, unaccustomed to visible light strained against the camp fires, making out vague shapes of the patrolling elves. Habisai didn't so much as blink agisnt the distant light of the flames. nothing seemed to phase this beautiful avatar of Lloth that was habisai. the platoon leader tried to catch her attention with a flourish of his hand follow by the elegant and complex hand estruses of the non-verbal version of drow language. 'Mistress! so, on your call we will surround the camp, snuff the flames with a globe of darkness, and then use sleep poisons in our darts to take them out. should be no trouble.' Daulsic explained, the ambush pattern he was suggesting was very standard for a non lethal raid. Habisai narrowed her eyes at him, and purse her lips into that adorable pout she often teased them with. the other drow waited nervously for her answer. Habisai kept and long hard glare at Daulsic keeping him uneasy before returning her attention back tot he camp. the wind started to shift and habisai sniffed the air. her lips curved into her more wicked smile as she started giggle. out loud. the already uneasy platoon flinched at the sound of one of the them making any sound frantically gestured, pleading for her to not giggle any louder. Habisai shrugged and shook her head smiling, clearing enjoying keeping her me on edge right before a mission. ' non-lethal, no poisons ' she gestured smugly. the drow males looked at each other in astonishment, had she lost it? Daulsic's shaky hand came back up. ' bu-but mistress, that's not possible .' Habisai shrugged and gestured back dismissively. 'o h its possible, you have hands you and you have ropes. think this is a challenge that the matron's finest can't handle? ' that was a low blow to the pride of the platoon, but she was literally ordering them to go into there with, well nothing, just grappling matches in the dark. and they knew nothing about this other breed of surface elves either. Rei-sith seemed even more distant with this new order and began looking back into the camp, easily handling the minor sting of the fire light, where was she? The male drow every forced to accept their disposable role conceded to habisai's orders. the score of drow started to divide up into small teams as they began the encirclement.
