Demon Rathian

The hunters all walked out into an arena covered in grass on one half, and sand on the other. There is a pitfall trap hidden in the sand, as the hunters were told of and warned. There is also a ballista cannon, with five shots, on the far side of the grass half of the arena. In the middle of the grass, about 100 meters from the hunters, Rathian stands, a full grown Gold crown monster, perhaps 20 or so feet tall. It's facing to their left, chewing on the Great Jaggi that was supposed to be a surprise bonus, it's blacked corpse limb in Her jaws. The arena has about an eighth mile diameter, perhaps 200 meters.

The gate closed, archers positioned every few feet high up in the walls in case the worst happens... again.

Urvan looked over the hunting company, recognizing two of the members as past allies.
The near naked one he remembered as the fool who almost got himself killed. At least this time he brought a more fitting weapon.

With his hammer in his arms, the heavy hunter advanced closer to the black Rathian. Like the Espinas some time ago, he'd never seen or fought such a monster, but heard it was a monster to be reckon with. More so than that of the rare Golden Rathian.

Demon/Ancient Rathian is supposed to be better than Golden Rathian, right?

[Blaster427]

Upon seeing the Rathian, Jason knocked three arrows in his bow, then shot then at the Rathian's right wing, then knocked three more, firing them at the left wing.

[SemajChaos]

Before Urvan could move more than a few steps, and before any of the group split up at all, Jason fired arrows. The distance severely faltered his aim, having only one arrow go where he intended of the first round. The first two landed in the ground while the third bounced off of Rathian's enormous thorns and shell. She didn't even bother looking.

The second round tried to fly over her, but considering the target out of his sight, all of the arrows overshot.

[Blaster427]

"*beep*" Jason said to himself before taking a few steps closer, being very quiet, then knocked three arrows in, then got his aim just right on the right wing, then let loose, then knocked three more, getting his aim just right on the webbing of the left wing, then let the arrows fly, then kept knocking one arrow in and firing whenever the oppurtunity.

ooc: She's 100 meters away from you Blaster. Monster Hunter bows weren't made for that distance. That's about 328 feet. Try to at least get within 200.

ooc:
And 300 feet is a football field, to help you visualize.

"Best wait 'til you're closer." Urvan said to the archer as he continued to approuch the Rathian. He had low expectations for the long range hunter, which ironically boosted his mood. It would mean more challenge, which to him translated into more pleasure.

-
ooc:
@Blaster: Don't be offended, that's just Urvan's impression.

Roy merely distanced himself from the other hunters, his weapon drawn. He was heading towards and to the right of the Ancient Rathian.

"Let's see how you move..." he muttered to himself.

OOC: Yeah DB, much better.

[sunfish123]

Miles chuckled to himself slightly when he saw how badly the archer had missed while slowly advancing towards the Demon Rathian himself.

ooc: Will everyone stop laughing at me

[Chaa]

Patting Jason on the back, "Atleast one hit, so it's not a total miss, right?" Chaa exclaimed, then giggled. Looking over at Toby, she facepalmed, recognizing him from the last arena quest, "Don't give me that crap about your armor and where is the shield to your sword?" Not giving Toby a chance to reply, "Nevermind, don't answer. Just don't die." Seeing Urvan trudge ahead, she sprinted to run alongside of him. "I'm guessing you gonna break her face in, right? I'll work on chopping that tail off!", Chaa saluted Urvan then slowed her pace and broke off to the right, in an attempt to blindside the Rathian and her tail.

"Unsheathe and dodge away" she kept repeating to herself.

[17dragonboy]

ooc:
@Blaster: Sorry. All in good humor.

-

"Dunno. I tend'ta just hit what's near." Urvan said to the huntress without looking her way. Strategy wasn't his thing. He worked with reflex and instinct instead, and they'd worked just fine for him thus far.

[SemajChaos]

As all of the hunters moved, Demon Ian merely glanced over, before closing her eyes and resuming her meal.

[17dragonboy]

Urvan continued straight for the Rathian, not bothering to spread out from the others as would likely be strategically ideal. If they wanted to follow that plan, they could themselves. In his defense, however, he was the slowest in the group and would have the hardest time taking any route other than straight ahead.

[sunfish123]

Miles continued his trek towards the Demon Ian while unsheathing his scythe. He figured the best plan of action was to get up next to it before making a slash at a leg to try and slow it down a bit, however dodging was the biggest priority.

[Blaster427]

Jason knocked three arrows, ran at it at full speed, then fired the arrows once he got close enough, then knocked three more, firing once more, then evading out of the way.

[tobyaG]

'Hey everyone! My name is Toby, I can remember some of you from the previous hunt! Lets hope we can have some fun!!! shouts Toby. He ran towards every single hunter to personally introduce himself. He felt that it would be selfish of him not to introduce the future King of Hunters.

As Urvan marched, Chaa ran around, aiming for Ian's tail. Toby chased after her, and Jason ran forward to release a volley of arrows. The Reaper Miles advanced as well, eyeing her legs. Roy re-positioned himself.

Ian looked up and watched them. Then yawned.

As Chaa made it to her, she unsheathed her sword, and swung at the tail. At the same time, Miles slashed at Ian's leg. Both of them made superficial cuts in her shell, not causing any blood, or drawing a reaction. Urvan made it most of the way there, and Toby tapped Chaa on the shoulder. Several volleys of arrows all bounced off of Ian, or stuck to her wing membrane, not all necessarily piercing, but all at least sticking. Rathian grunted, shaking the arrows free from her wings, and swept her tail, knocking down Chaa and Miles. Afterwards, she lifted up the Jaggi corpse, and tossed it a good forty feet with a small puff of flames in her maw.

[Chaa]

Immediately getting up to see the jaggi corpse fly overhead, "STOP DISTRACTING ME AND HELP!" Chaa yelled at Toby. She did an upward swing with all her might at the Ian's tail and as her Brunhilde began falling back, she used that momentum to do a backflip of sorts. Now a few paces away from where she was previously, she eyed the Demon Rathian and any movements she made, ready to block any attacks.

[sunfish123]

"Well this could be a problem." Miles said as he stood back up. He then went back over to the legs again and made another slash at the same spot, but was weary of any reaction that may occur.
