The Hunters
Eckart Köhler
Age: 46
Gender: Male
Height: 182.8 cm
Physical Description: Eckart is a muscular man with brown hair and brown eyes. Interestingly, he always wears clothes that completely cover his arms, hands and legs.
Equipment: Eckart has a variety of equipment with which he destroys the undead. He is competent with knife, sword, bow, crossbow, musket and blunderbuss. He always carries a sword and a set of silver stakes.
Eckart only has one piece of magical equipment, The Shield of Bechafen. The Shield is entirely black with no device or heraldry upon it, but it has a curious effect when it is stuck by the Undead.
When the Shield is struck by the Undead, it immediately rebounds the attack with the exact same force as what was used to hit it.
Alena Hoffmann
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Height: 160 cm
Physical Description: Alena appears as a typical woman with black hair and brown eyes.
Equipment: Alena is competent with all manner of weapons just like Eckart and is armed with the magical sword created by the College of Light. The sword burns as if dipped in pitch and set alight, and unclean flesh cannot abide its touch.
Burkhard Müller
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Height: 172.7 cm
Physical Description: Burkhard always wears a greatcoat with a high collar that's turned up. This is probably done out of habit from the cold, as in the few times Berkhard has spoken it has been with a Kesliv (or Norse) accent. He has brown hair and light blue/grey eyes
Equipment: Burkhard has only ever used two weapons, a pair of silver knuckle dusters, one with the Hammer of Sigmar and the other with the Two Tailed Commet embossed on them.
The woman ran through the Great Forest of the empire, the howls of her inhuman pursuers chasing after her almost as fast as the Vampires themselves. The full moon's light could barely illuminate the ground before her feet, and she tripped, falling to the ground.
The Vampires stopped, smirking with their fangs, gloating over their prey helpless on the ground.
"Well, that wasn't much of a chase."
Said the lead Vampire, his gets laughing.
"Your poor sport girl."
The woman scrambled to get up. The lead Vampire gestured to his gets.
"Do what you like with her."
One of the Vampires moved forward a cruel smile on his face. He grabbed the woman and rolled her over on her back.
He stopped, surprised, as he looked at her face.
She had a cruel smile of her own on.
The woman kicked her boot down, and a small silver knife shot up from her shoe which she plunged into the Vampire's groin.
The Vampire's roar of pain was cut short, as a silver stake flew out of the darkness and impaled him through the heart.
The Vampires seemed stunned for a moment as they watched one of their number fall to the ground, a stake through his heart, and then scattered as another silver stake flew through the night air and barely missed the head of the leader.
Suddenly, the night was illuminated.
The Vampires found they had chased the girl into a clearing of the forest, the edges of which had suddenly caught fire. The Vampires where hemmed in, without means to escape.
Two figures walked through he flames on opposite sides of the clearing. One was a muscular looking man, his hands holding a crossbow armed with another silver stake. He had a shield on his back and a sword at his side, with a belt holding several more silver stakes. The other man had on a greatcoat, the collar covering up most of his face, revealing only his eyes and blond hair.
The big man smiled.
"Sorry to break up the party boys."
The lead vampire scowled and said simply.
"Kill them."
The three gets rushed at the two men and the woman who had by now regained her feet.
The big man calmly raised his crossbow and fired the stake into the right leg of the Vampire charging towards him. The Vampire crashed down to the ground, his skin smoldering from the silver projectile. The vampire flipped onto its stomach just in time to be hit in the face by the human's boot, sending the Vampire sprawling on his back. In one deft motion, the man withdrew a silver stake from his belt and plunged it into the Vampires heart.
The man in the greatcoat didn't move at all as the Vampire moved to kill him. The unholy monster raised a fist and punched it square into the human's jaw. The beast smiled as he waited for the human to collapse dead from the blow.
Instead, the man spoke, in a foreign accent.
"Was that it?"
A moment later the Vampire's head was literally punched clear off its body.
The body collapsed as the head rolled onto the ground, a Two Tailed Comet burned onto its brow.
The man in the greatcoat held up is right hand, showing the silver knuckle buster with the Two Tailed Comet emblazoned upon the bar.
"Thats how you punch someone."
The woman had produced two daggers which she held blade down. The daggers where connected by a thin silver cord that was barely visible. The Vampire reached out to grasp her and she brought the two knives up, the cord between them held taught. It sliced the Vampires arm off. With a single deft move she performed the same trick and removed the beasts head.
The lead Vampire scowled even more as his gets where systematically annihilated. He threw his hands up in a rage.
"Pathetic humans! You don't know who your messing with! I am a child of Vlad Von Carstein! I am-"
A silver stake plunged into the vampire's mouth, the point protruding through the back of his neck.
"You are over talkative."
Said the big man as he reloaded his crossbow. He walked towards the Vampire which had fallen to his knees trying to remove the stake that was burning into his flesh.
The human kicked the vampire and shot the stake into his heart.
"And now you're dead."
he said as the Vampires body crumbled into dust.
The woman walked over to watch the Vampire crumble away.
"That was easier than you thought Köhler. You think he was a real Von Carstein?"
The man scratched his chin.
"Perhaps. Of all our weapons against the undead, the greatest one is their own hubris. Had he shut up and attacked we might have had more of a struggle. What do you think Müller?"
The man in the greatcoat said nothing.
"In any case, we have another assignment. This one came from the Grand Theogonist himself."
"Really?"
said the woman
"Why would the old man call on us, his dirty little secret, personally?"
"All I know is that we're going after a group of them this time. Their called the Vampire Council, and their supposed to be pretty tough."
The woman smiled
"We'll be the judge of that."
I'll probably send them in on the next chapter.
refers to fight on foot but sometimes rides on a Great Black Wolf
But I'm not so mean.
