"In order to grow my powers, I must find some more creative bones. " thinks the necromancer. With that in mind, he sets off for his travels in search for bone. Not just any type of bones will do for him though. He is on the hunt for something big and powerful to use. After a long hike up a mountain, a slow rumble comes from with in a cave. A mystery indeed one that even this mighty necromancer can't resist.
Making his way through the cave a slow rumbling voice starts to echo off the walls.
" Who dares to enter my layer?" rumbles the voice. Startled, the necromancer doesn't move for what seemed like years but was only seconds. Another few steps down the cavern as it grows in darkness and another rumble from the mysterious voice.
" Who ever you are, you reek of death. Leave now or face the consequences. " growled the voice this time with a touch of anger to it.
It was too late. After rounding a bend he could see it. A very large chamber deep in the cavern, filled with bones, jewels and gold. It's what was guarding them that struck the necromancer with a hint of fear. A very large almost golden colored dragon, gleaming back at him with ruby red like eyes.
" My name is Jarad, Lich Lord. I have come in search of.."
" I know why you are here necromancer!" " The smell of death is pouring off of you, you should leave now or face my rath." growled the mighty beast.
With Jarad not moving the beast started to rise and began to make its intentions known. Spreading his mighty wings the beast let loose a powerful blast of fire. Jarad turned heel, making his way as fast as he could out the cave diving out of the way just as the ball of fire passed by him. Getting to his feet, Jarad saw the beast is out of the cave now and determined to make him pay for disturbing him.
" Foolish necromancer, you know not who you have disturbed. For I am Numot. Numot the Devastator, and now you will pay with your life."
Thinking fast. Jarad sends out his Drudge Beetle to defend himself from the Devastator. Unimpressed, Numot sends forth an ancient artifact known as the Paradise Mantle.
" You have yet to see my power dragon!" intimidated Jarad. Casting out the Strangleroot Giest ready to do battle with Numot, then sends in his beetle to damage the dragon.
Growling with anger, the dragon only continues his play to eat this new foe. Making preparations for Jarad's next attack.
With a charge of power,Jarad sends in his beetle and giest to attack the dragon yet again and then summons his Obstinate Baloth for a defense. Numot copies his foe's Baloth using the powers of Clone. Jarad only calls forth Vital Splicer unwilling to attack his creatures into a copied baloth.
Bearing his teeth, Numot grinned and rumbled " Now this should stop you in your tracks Lich Lord."
Jarad's fear has come. Numot sent out a way to stall for time keeping Jarad's assault on hold. The power is that of none other than Norn's Annex. Jarad would only build his army up just waiting for the extra mana to flow and begin his assault again. Now though, Jarad faces down Hypersonic Dragon and the baloth clone. Things aren't so bad is all he could think until Numot did his next move. Numot would make his army stay as a defense while he began to gather mana for a thunderous attack. Using what mana has been gathered, Jarad sends in his forces to keep the dragon back. Unable to pay for them all, Jarad must also pay some of his own life to the Annex as well. While he may have lost three strong creatures, some damage was still able to be dealt to the beast.
" You shall pay for this pain I feel!" Growled the dragon in anger.
" I highly doubt that beast, you will fall before me" boasted the lich lord.
" I highly doubt that beast, you will fall before me" boasted the lich lord.
A sinister grin began to show on the dragon's face as he let loose a powerful fireball. Jarad dodged the ball just enough to be alive but took a brush to his left leg. Rithing with pain, it only got worse. Numot would take away two of the lich lord's mana using his own power. Demolish takes out yet another mana from Jarad.
" You are truly a fool. How dare you think you have what it takes to bring me down." growled the beast.
Another giant ball of fire came towards the lord of death and yet again he managed to dodge it enough. Severely wounded, Jarad refused to back down from the dragon. Down to just one mana all he could do was try to keep his determination strong.
" You won't beat me dragon. I will find a way to slay you and your bones will make for a truly terrifying beast." stumbled Jarad.
Again another powerful ball of fire erupted from Numot hurling it towards Jarad, this time he wasn't so lucky. Unable to stand from the last assault, Jarad sunk to into the ground. Numot glared at the battle field at the smoldering ash pile that was Jarad.
" Guess I will just go find another meal then." smiled the dragon.
With a flap of his mighty wings, Numot set off in search of food since Jarad was cooked too well for the dragon. Jarad resurfaced after he herd the dragon fly off and could only have one thought in mind.
Letting out a sigh and wispering under his breath, " I will get stronger dragon, and you will fall to my power the next time we meet"
