In reply to Brennan Otthild (msg # 691):
Titus looks around to ensure they are alone. He strikes a pose facing the town as if he were having a conversation with the other men, one where he is facing the town.
In the bright sunlight Titus' eyes narrow as he focuses on everything in the town.
quote:
As the breeze begins to pick up the shadows in the town become sharper. They reach our in spiraling tendrils towards the center of the town square. Snaking under and around those walking in the square. Slowly spinning. Shortly after this people's shadows detach from their feet and get sucked into the spinning vortex. Soon there are no shadows to be seen in the town and a roiling cloud of shadow.
Titus makes a hand gesture to Brennan
quote:
As he does this the edges of the shadow burst into flame with no heat, and remains on the ground. Soon the flame and the shadows twist together into a form that is almost.... but not quite... entirely unlike Jack (clearly not him though). The wind whips and howls and the creature acts as if it is coming as much from him as from the wind.
The form looks around feral for a moment, as if deciding what to do. The figure lurches as it runs from one corner of the square to the next. Menacing, but avoiding villagers.
Once someone with more gumption appears to confront the threat, more hand gestures.
quote:
A sudden gust of wind blows through the town and the figure unfurls vestigial wings (think flying squirrel) and leaps into the air against the stiff wind and flies incongruously to the rooftops. Leaping from one to another until it leaps into a now restored shadow and vanishes.
Titus appears to conclude his conversation with the other men acting as if he had seen nothing.
That should do it...
