The Alighieri Incursion

The Magic SOB forum is for posts of story sequences that are frequently vignette-based. Put those here while actual battle reports can go in Reports From the Field.
You must talk like James T. Kirk in this forum at all times. Leonard Nimoy is fine too.

The Alighieri Incursion

Post by Arkbrik » Mon Sep 06, 2010 1:10 pm

Image

The frozen world of Alighieri, on the outskirts of FELC space.

Image

These soldiers have the thankless task of patrolling the icy plains for any signs of danger.

Image

"Uh, guys..."

Image

"...what's that?"

"It looks like a... crack?"

Image

"???"

Image

Vergilius Raskolnikov has returned from Hell to continue his quest!

Image

Unwholesome demons follow in his wake.

Image

"For FELC! For Alighieri!"

Image

"This is patrol 9, we are under attack! Requesting ba-"

Image

"-aargh..."

Image

The tide cannot be stopped.

Image

The FELC soldiers are defeated and the crack closes. The demons wander off into the wastes looking for something to kill.

Image

"Ah, a Sub-Etha transmitter. How convenient."

Image

"General, this is Vergilius Raskolnikov. Hell foolishly thought it could keep me contained, but I conquered my way out."

"Just as we expected, sir. What are your orders?"

"I am on some planet called Alighieri. It will do fine as my next conquest. Prepare the fleet and army for departure!"

"Yes sir!"

These demons were inspired by Dwarf Fortress; there was a shark demon, a tentacle demon, a goat demon, a monkey demon, a smurf demon...
