"Really? If you're gonna attempt to kill me, you couldn't have gotten someone that'll at least be intimidating?" Lizzy huffed, leaning back in her chair with her arms crossed. "I know death is meaningless to me, but you could've at least tried to make assassination seem like a scary experience..." She glanced away and muttered, "...This is just pitiful."
I felt like this would be kinda fun.
Basically your OC finds out that the OC above is going to assassinate them at any given point.
How do they react to this? What do they do? How intimidated are they by the OC above?
So, I will use my assassin OC Scourge for this. (partly because he was what inspired me to make this) So basically whoever comments IC next has to react to hearing the news that they are about to be killed by this guy. They might survive though if they're lucky.
"Really now? While I'm sure you have your reasons you will certainly have to catch me first... Good luck sneaking up on me with that bright hair of yours. "
Fire isn't a huge threat to Myra, and she's very fast, she'll probably outrun other than attempt to fight back against someone she sees as a child (both in apperance-though she is still younger than her even at her 'real' age); not to mention if Elizabeth is unable to be killed. If anything, she may attempt to restrain her- but for risk of her family the better option in her eyes would be to travel as far away as possible and try to lose her.
Shes dealt with assassination attempts multiple times in the past and largely just tries to out-assassin them.
Scourge was casually just hunting a few deer in the forest. He crouched down behind a bush and stalked the herd for a while. He was ready to annihilate his prey when suddenly they all raised their heads up in alertness and ran away. Strange, he did not even make a sound. Scourge knew that the herd of deer must have detected something else.
Scourge picked up an unfamiliar scent of someone, so he hastily got up and prepared himself for whatever was there. But unfortunately for him, he was too late. The being that was lurking around had already pounced onto Scourge and threw him to the ground. The creature-- well, beast's name was, Maximilian and boy he was angry. After all, he was face to face with the one that he was hired to kill. He was clawing Scourge across the face repeatedly and biting him whenever he got the chance.
Maximilian ended up getting kicked back by Scourge, who was very confused to what this thing actually was. This guy seemed so human-like, yet so monstrous at the same time. Quite intriguing to say the least. Scourge dropped down on all fours in a pouncing stance that is similar to that of a wild cat's, and he let out a primal roar at Maximilian.
"How adorable. The little teddy bear is really going to try and fight back with me?" Maximilian said with a smirk. Scourge did not respond back. Instead, he continued to growl at Maximilian as his fur stood on end. He was definitely threatened by this humanoid beast.
"Oh boy. This is going to be interesting. Also entertaining!" Maximilian gave Scourge a sly grin.
At that moment, Scourge pounced right onto Maximilian and pinned him to the ground. He sunk his claws deep into Maximilian and shredded through his flesh, over and over and over again. Maximilian was not about to give up though. He continued to claw back at Scourge with every opportunity that he got. This resembled some sort of wild animal fight, which in a way it kinda was. These two wet on fighting for a while, blood was being scattered everywhere. They were not about to stop until someone came out victorious.
So that's who it was.
You had heard through word of mouth that there was someone who was after you. Someone who was trying to assassinate you. You didn't particularly care, really. It wasn't like people hadn't wanted you dead before, especially since a good portion of the contracts that come through that you had to deal with were directed at you specifically - but it wasn't like they knew that you were an assassin yourself thus marking them null and void. You watched the bear with the utmost curiosity, what was he? You'd never seen anything like him before, and the only bears you had come into contact with were all wild, feral creatures. This bear seemed... intelligent.
Narrowing your eyes, you made sure you got a good look at the stranger before you. You weren't sure if he'd noticed your presence or not, but you were trying your best to stay hidden regardless. He definitely looked intimidating enough - with his sizable claws and sharp teeth - but you also couldn't help scrunching your nose up a little bit at the rest of his appearance. He definitely seemed very rough around the edges which was understandable if he had a similar occupation to you, but one would think he'd never thought to clean himself. And no clothes? You shook your head. Well, whatever the case, you knew he was likely a force to be reckoned with. You silently turned on your heel and headed in the opposite direction to your potential assassin. Luckily you wouldn't necessarily have to fight him in close combat if the need to protect yourself arose. You were quite skilled in long-distance destruction magic, after all...
(i find it amusing that scourge has a fear of fire and r'jhera specialises in fire magic specifically lmao, poor dude :'3 also accidentally wrote a 2nd post instead of editing this one that's what three hours of sleep will do to ya)
"Oh man," Salvador nervously chuckled. "You got the wórst possible job. No, no really, " Salvador held up his dagger but almost already dropped it when the khajit looked his way.
"I'm so lów on the thief foodchain I can't imagine what..wrong you did to your boss to get this... Boring job, ha ha, " Salvador laughter died as soon as he remembers that this man was here to kill him. that was nothing to laugh about! Salvador backed up a few paces, his sweaty hand still grabbing his dagger. As if this, Iron dagger could save him from a powerful, vampire.
"Listen, " he said his voice definitely shaking with tears. "We can eh.. talk about right? Ne-... negotiate it.." Salvador shook his head. "We eh are eh..both thieves! Ye-yes! Thieves! N-no murderers!"
Mizuki recooked in shock. "M-me? Assassinated? B-but why?!" She yelled. "There's like... so much to like about me! I'm nice, I have money, I have good fashion sense, I'm a good singer, I have money, I'm always up for trying new things, did I mention I have money?" She rambled.
"Listen, I'll like, pay you whatever amount of money so you don't kill me. I have a gig tomorrow with my band and I don't need to be presumed DEAD!" She dramatically yelled.
"Heyyu? Are you sure you that you want to do this?"
Lady blinking her glowing amber eyes at the white hair man who wearing a nice yellow shirt with a white vest outside, he doesn't looks like a bad person or anything but she can't let her guard down. But now think about it, who wanted to assassinate a little robot like her? Not to mention how screw up that gonna be, Lady herself do not want to make a fuss by trigger her alarm systems and just talk to the man front of her instead. She faced a lot of scary criminals before, and this man doesn't looks like one of them. Maybe he just need money quickly, and now she been curious about the person behind all of this. Then she opened the door for him to get inside before someone saw them, in any case, Lady won't be assassinate that easy. She knows exactly how she would die and tonight isn't the right time to die, that won't happened. So why not try to get some information from this man right there to know who want to kill her that bad eh?
"Come in, sir! You could try to murder me, but trust me you don't want to. Anywayyy, who hiring you to do this?"
Scourge had gotten word that a shape shifter was hired to kill him. He didn't really believe this at first though because he knew that shape shifters weren't real. Scourge was walking over to the lake in the center of the forest, when suddenly he heard an unfamiliar voice behind him. This caused him to turn around quickly to see who it was.
"Greetings there, sir. Isn't it just a lovely day today?" The voice had said. This voice belonged to, Canvas. The so-called shape shifter that was going to kill Scourge.
Scourge didn't realize that this was the person that was after him though. So he handled this like the ray of sunshine that he is...
"H-Hey! I don't know ya! Get outta my forest before I decide to paint the grass with your blood!!" Scourge roared at Canvas.
Canvas simply chuckled in response at Scourge.
"Actually bear, that will not be necessary. You see, it's you who will be leaving this wretched forest forever." Canvas said this with a sly grin.
"W-Whaddya mean by that, punk?!" Scourge was only getting angrier at Canvas. But that anger quickly turned to fear as soon as Canvas changed his form into a monstrous, fire elemental creature that was at least 15 feet tall. The rumors were true, this guy really could shapeshift.
Scourge stepped back. He quickly ran into the lake to prevent this fiery form of Canvas from touching him. Scourge had a fear of fire after all.
"Aww, what's wrong there little bear? Not a fan of fire I take it? Well then..."
Canvas went back to his normal form and looked at the water, thinking of the next thing that he would turn into.
"I guess sharks will have to be the next then, my dear friend!~"
