No joke Oc's please! No you cannot kill the Princess or the Dragon.

*He was just flying around, enjoying himself when he noticed the two. He quickly and quietly hid behind a bush to see what they were doing.*

*the Princess and the Dragon seem to be laughing*

*He listens in...*

Princess: Did they actually do that?! *she laughs*
Dragon: Yes. *she laughs as well* They did do that.

"What in...?" *He whispers to himself.*
*He looks closer, not to close to be spotted, but not to close to not see.*

Princess Ivy: *laughs*
*you realize that the princess is wearing mens clothes*

*wait wha-*

Dragon: Ivy, there is someone here.
Ivy: Oh? *spots you* Oh! Hello!

*As soon as he realizes he's been spotted, he darts into the forest, and into another hiding position.*

Ivy: *follows you* Why are you running?

*He then begins to fly into the sky, to attempt to get away.*

Vex (the dragon): *follows you*

*He goes far above hills and down below canyons, but soon he gets exhausted, and hides behind a tree to rest and re-gain lost strength.*

Vex: *lands in front of you* Hello.

*The moment he sees the dragon, he begins to tense up. He can literally sense the fear that is radiating off of him.*
H...hi? *He says, still clearly afraid.*

Vex: You don't have to be afraid. I'm not going to hurt you.

H-how...do I-..not-k-know t-th-that? *He says, still clearly afraid.*(this is a younger version of the young hero, he's 9 years old in this timeline)

Ivy: *appears beside Vex* Because, unlike the King and Queen, we help people. We won't hurt you.

Wait...the King and Queen don't?

Ivy: *shakes her head*

That just sucks. *He says, standing on all fours, his yellow cape slightly flowing in the soft breeze.* How come?

Vex: *growls* Because they kill dragons!

*The sudden change of tone stuns the young soon-to-be hero.*
Well...now I regret knowing that...

Ivy: *grimly smiles* I have to come here to talk with me Spirit Guardian Dragon, Vex. Otherwise she'll get killed by the King and Queen.
*you notice that Ivy doesn't refer to the King and Queen as "Mother" or "Father"*

That's sad. *He says, now feeling sorrow.* Are there others like you, Vex? *He says.*

Vex: *her aura saddens* No. I'm the only one left.

*His eyes go wide, and he actually sheds one tear.*
I am so sorry...*He says quietly, now standing bipedal*

Vex: *simply nods*

*Then, his frontal paws(or hands if you will) begin to glow Yellow as he walks to Vex(still bipedal), and as he places one hand onto Vex's belly, she begins to feel something...growing...*
Your species will live on. That I promise you.

Vex: *puts her head level with yours, quietly* Promise?

Promise. *He says confidently.*

Vex: *gently bumps you with her head, a single shimmering tear falls* Thank you.

*3 months later(after she's given birth to 20 dragons)...*

Vex: *roars with pride*

(not an rp yet but does this have anything to do with skyrim?)

(cuz i can speak dragon tongue)

(Yes, it does have to do with Skyrim a bit. The Princess is on a mountain, hence why you can't understand what either her or the Dragon are saying)

(he has a shield instead of a banner)
*He slowly approach's, confused at what they are saying*

Princess: *laughs* They really did that?!
Dragon: *in Dragon Tongue* Yes they did. Princess, someone is approaching.
Princess: Oh. *turns to you* Oh! Hello!

*he peaks out from behind a tree*
???: How did you know i was here

Princess: Oh that! *she gestures to the Dragon* She told me.

???: I-it talks?

Princess: Of course she does!

???: Then why doesnt it now?

Dragon: *in Normal Language* Because you wouldn't have understood me.

*he stumbles back and falls*
???: By the gods, it does talk

Dragon: *rumbles in laughter* Yes I can talk and for future reference, I am a 'she' not an 'it'.

???: M-my apologies ma'am

Dragon: Tis no worry.
Princess: *to you* So... What brings you up here?

*he stands up, clears his throat, and pulls a large paper from his side*
Vincent: I am Knight Vincent, a traveling mercenary looking for work

Princess: Hm. Come with me then. I will see if my father will hire you.

*he rolls the scroll back up and follows, staying what he assumes is a safe distance away from the dragon*

Princess: *hums while walking*
*you notice that the dragon is gone and that the Princess has a dragon tattoo now*

*he looks around nervously looking for the dragon and notices the tattoo*
Vincent: Um... You didnt have that tattoo earlier, when did you yet it?

Princess: *smiles* Vexcin, the dragon, is my Spirit Guardian. *points to the tattoo* This is her in Tattoo Form.
*you and the Princess finally approach the palace gates*

*the Knight puts his mace in his belt, and his shield on his back before entering*

Guard 1: HALT! HOW GOES THERE?!

*the Knight hands the guard is paper* I am a traveling Knight in search of work

Guard 2: Who is with you!
Princess Ivy: The Princess! Now let us in!

*Vincent quickly turns around kneeling and holding his mace in his hands offering it to you*
Vincent: Your highness!? *You can tell he is foreign to this nation from this gesture*

Princess Ivy: *smiles and takes the mace* Rise Knight. We have an audience with my father.

*he rises surprised you knew what to do, he salutes and steps aside for you to walk past him*

Princess Ivy: *smiles*
*you follow her to the throne room*
Princess Ivy: FATHER!!

*he kneels waiting for the king to enter*

*the King and Queen enter*
King: Ivy, who is this?

*he doesnt speak, he lets the princess speak for him*

Princess Ivy: Father, Mother. *she bows* This is Knight Vincent. He's a traveling Mercenary looking for work.
King: Hm. Go on.
Princess Ivy: I was wondering if you'd hire him.

*he rises and salutes the king*
Vincent: May I have a word?

King: *nods*

Vincent: I specialize is guarding, as well as regular adventuring parties and hunting groups, if any of those interest you

King: Actually yes, how good are you at hunting?

Vincent: Well, Monster hunting is the one i am least experienced in, but id say i can hold my own against some regular foe

King: Hm.
Queen: Have you hunted dragons before?

Vincent: Uh... I... Dont think i qualify for that... The steongest thing ive kilted is an Ogre...

Queen: Hm. *she claps her hands and another Knight, whom of which you recognize, comes into the throne room* Vincent, this is Stalker. He is a well skilled Dragon Hunter. He will train you.

*the knight glances at the princess nervously*
Vincent: Y-yes your highness *he kneels again*

*you see that Princess Ivy is glaring at Stalker*

*he rises and approaches Stalker*

Stalker: *grins* Long time no see eh Vince?

Vincent: Im not as helpless as the last time you saw me *he grumbles* lets get this ocer with, im guessing you want to "Dual" so you can see what ik capable of?

Stalker: *laughs* Sure why the h3ll not!
Princess: I will oversee the Dual.

*Vincent glares at stalker and says low* I wont go down so easily

Stalker: We'll see about that!

*once they reach there dualing grounds vincent dons his shield and his mace, as well as grabbing his scroll off his side

Ivy: *observes*
Stalker: Really dude. A f**king scroll. *he dons his scythe and shield*

*he unrolls the scroll and shouts* "BULWARK"
*and the scroll disintegrates seemingly doing nothing*

Ivy: Hm.
Stalker: HA! That did absolutely nothing!

*Vincent charges forward his mace and shield in hand*

Stalker: *charges as well*

*Vincents armor starts to shimmer with holy light and a holy outline of an ancient templer appears around him*

Stalker: The H3LL?!
Ivy: *laughs*

Vincent: I AM NOT THE SQUIRE YOU MET AT THE TRAINING GROUNDS, I AM NOW A KNIGHT AND I SHALL PUT YOU IN YOUR PLACE MONSTER HUNTER *His mace glows with holy power as he brings it down onto Stalker*

Stalker: *blocks the attack and sends a dagger flying at Ivy*

Vincent: NO! *he bashes Stalker in the stomach with the point of his shield*

Ivy: *sees the dagger* VEX! *the dragon stops the dagger*

*Vincent backhands Stalker with his shield trying to knock him down*

Stalker: *kneels* You win, Vince. *shouts* YOUR MAJESTIES!! THERE IS A DRAGON NEAR THE PRINCESS!!

*the holy light dissipates and reforms into the scroll around his belt, he rushes to the princesses side*

King: *sees the dragon* GUARDS!! DRAGON!

*Vincent rushes to the princesses side*
Vincent: We need to go

Ivy: *nods* Vex?
Vexcin: *in Normal Language* Hop on my back. I will fly the three of us out.

*Vincent clambers up onto Vex*

Ivy: *hops in front of you* Vex, take us to home. *to you* Hold on tight.

*he already was and as the dragon takes of he cries out and he practically has a death grip on the dragon*

Vex: Oi! Not so tight on the spinal spikes!

*he loosens up, barely*

Vex: Thank you!
Ivy: *has her arms in the air* WOO!

*he is just waiting for them to land*

Vex: *lands*

*he slides off, stumbles, throws his helmet off and vomits on the ground*

Ivy: *has one hand on Vex* Takes a bit to get used to.

*he finishes expelling his stomach and reaches for his helmet, making sure she doesnt see his face, but he cant seem to find his helmet which is out of his sight*

Ivy: You doing better?

Y-yep *he finally grabs his helmet and dons it before facing you*

Ivy: Huh. How come you won't show your face?

*he is silent* Please do not ask me that again

Ivy: O-oh. I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable.

*he sits down leaning against a tree*

Vex: *to you* You okay? *she seems to be very concerned*

*he checks to make sure ge still has all of his belongings* I am never flying again...

Vex: You'll get used to it.

*he gets up*
Vincent: So what are we going to do if bounty hunters show up? Surely the king will not be happy abo her *he motions toward Vex*

Ivy: My Aunt lives around here. She's an Empress and protects dragons. She won't let me parents or the bounty hunters hurt Vex.

And what about dangers, have you heard the rumors of undead rising at nightfall? They're true and we've wasted most of the day already *he points at the setting sun* so i hope this aunt of yours lives close by

Empress Solstice: Turn around dear Knight.

(i had a mental image of vincent turning around with and posing like caveman spongebob)

*Vincent whirls around startled and reaches for his mace but stops when he see's who it is*

(That's fricking hilarious!)
Empress Sol: *smiles* Hello Ivy. Greetings Vexcin.
Ivy and Vex: Auntie Sol!!

*Vincent takes a second to compose himself and does the same kneeling he did for Ivy when he found out she was royalty*

Sol: Rise.

*he does so*

Sol: Dearest Knight, do tell me why my niece and her dragon brought you here?

Vincent: *he looks back at Ivy* That... Is a good question, why did you take me with you, you could have easily escaped by yourself

Ivy: Oh really?! Like hell I would've left you! Stalker was planning on killing you!

*you cant aee his face, but you assume he reacted with his face rather than his voice*

Ivy: Idiot.

Vincent: That was rude *he sounds offended*

Vex: I apologize for Ivy's attitude. She isn't normally like this..

Vincent: Well i hate to sound impatient, but nightfall is upon us, and i dont think we should be wandering in the dark

Sol: *grins* Vex and I can fix that. *she clenches a fist and quickly opens her hand where there is a very bright flame sitting on her palm, at the same Vex starts to glow very brightly*

Vincent: That... Still doesnt help with the undead...

Vex: Cover your ears.

*he cant due to his helmet but he puts his hands over the holes in his visor*

Vex: *lets loose a Novalic Roar*
Ivy: *lets out a Phoenix Screech*
Sol: *lets loose a Griffin Howl*

*his helmet rattles and he holds it steady* What was that supposed to do?

Sol: Warn off the undead.

Vincent: Oh... Alright

Sol: *smiles* Come. My Palace isn't too far from here.

(sorry, was drawing)
*He follows*

(Tis okay)
*you follow Sol to her Palace*

*he looks around the threshold in awe*

Sol: *spreads her arms* Welcome Knight Vincent, to my Empire!

Vincent: This place... Its Huge

Sol: Compared to Ivy's "parents" kingdom, yes.

Vincent: *is nodding, he then lets out a loud yawn* I think ive had enough traveling for the day...

Sol: *whistles and a servant comes* Lily here will show you to your sleeping quarters.

*he bows slightly in greeting and follows*

Lily: This way sir!

*he follows*

*you are lead to your room*

*he enters examining his surroundings, after bidding the servant goodbye, he closes and locks his door, removing his helmet and placing it on the table*

*Ivy is watching from the shadows*

*he turns so she can see his face, his eye has been branded with the mark of the dishonored, there is a large scar down his eye and his eye is pure white, this must he why ye didnt want you to see his face*

Ivy: *in her mind* Oh my gods...

*he begins to take of his plates and notices you, betrayal painted across his face* What are you doing in here

Ivy: *comes out of the shadows, wearing men's clothing* I was curious. I now know why you didn't want me to see your face, but I don't understand you're branded with the mark of the dishonored. It's okay if you don't want to answer me but I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who hides their scars.

*he is silent fir a bit* Stalker did this to me... We are apart of rival guilds, i used to view him as an older brother, we were best friends, but then our fathers found out, and challenged our honor, my father chose me to fight in his place, and Stalker's father him... Stalker fought dirty, took my eye, and out of disgust, i was branded by my father for dishonoring him, and disowned... I was forced to join a bounty hunters guild where i was given the rank of Hunter, and worked my way up to Knight Hunter...

Ivy: Oh my! *she reveals her real form, which is very scared*

*he takes off his plates, but leaves the chainmail and leathers on, grabs a lepers mask from his bag and puts it on and puts a cloak on pulling the hood over his brown hair*
(If you want to know what mask he is wearing look up Leper Darkest Dungeon)

(the brand is actually a burn scar around his eye)

Ivy: *bows slightly* I am very sorry for intruding.. I guess I'll leave now...

Vincent: Mind if i tag along?

Ivy: Oh?! Uh. Sure!

*he adjust his mace belt and follows you*
(Vincent has joined the party! 😂)

(XD)
Sol: Ah Ivy, Vince. Join me, there are plans to go over.

Vincent: Plans?

Sol: Yes.

*he listens to the plan*

*you realize the plan is about taking down the King and Queen, whom you learn are not Ivy's real parents*

Vincent: But... What about the royal guard, i-i-i heard its the most fierce guard in the known world... I wouldnt possibly stand a change against them

Vex: *breathes a gentle flame on you* Now they'll be no match for you!

*turns to look* what did you do?

Vex: *give a sly dragon's grin* Gave you a Dragon's Strength.

*he looks at his scroll uncomfortably*

Sol: *reveals her real form* Ivy, Real form now. Vince, ready to do your first raid?

*he holds up his hand for them to give him a minute, he heads back to his room and returns in his platemail*
Vincent: Ready

Sol: Hm.. Your armor is missing something... AH HA! *she snaps her fingers and the crest for her empire appears on your armor and shield* There we go!

Vince: So how are we gonna get there

Sol: Either we fly or protal.

Vincent: I vote portal

Sol: *laughs* Not a fan of flying?

Vince: No.

Sol: *laughs* Took a flight here on Vex didn't you?

Vince: I dont wanna talk about it...

Sol: *laughs* Let's get this raid going!

*he follows her through the portal*

*they are met by the King at the border between the two kingdoms/empires*

*he doesn't kneel this time*

King: *angered* Kneel to your King!

(he uses the scroll to cast twist of fate)
Vincent: *he points his mace at the king* I CHALLENGE YOUR HONOR, FOR YOU HARBOR THE MAN WHO TOOK MINE *he removes his helmet exposing his mark* I HAVE COME TO RECLAIM MY HONOR, SO FIGHT ME KING, OR SEND A CHAMPION IN YOUR STEAD

King: STALKER!
Stalker: I know my duties. *to you* Let's fight then, Weakling!

Vincent: Not so fast you filthy snake! BULWARK *his scroll disintegrates and an apperaration of a templar appears next to him* Drop your weapons, ive been wanting to beat the arrogance out of you for years *he ets his mace down on the ground
