With a loud crack a barbed whip lashed out of the smoke, wrapping around Maximilian's blade.
"Now, now, let's not be hasty. We can hardly let such an
intriguing
specimen go to waste just like that, can we?" came a low, throaty purr. The one to speak walked out of the smoke veil, swaying her hips seductively with every step - a succubus clad in lamellar armor, her blueish white skin covered with an intricate network of glowing runic tattoos.
"Why don't you take it easy, mmm?" she murmured to the illusionist, with a flick of her fingers sending a wave of magical energy into him, the spell woven to addle his mind and smother his rage.
Meanwhile, another player entered the game; though still hidden by the fumes, his silhouette was outlined sharply - that of a robed man with a scythe sitting upon an otherworldly steed of demonic grace, the stallion's hooves engulfed in cold purple flames of the Nether and its eyes a pair of smoldering embers from the forges of Hell. The wickedly curved blade of the scythe was surrounded by a shimmering violet halo, dripping tears of amethyst light onto the scorched ground.
"Ladies, gentlemen, critters. It would please me greatly if you ceased your hostilities but for a moment," the rider thundered, his voice augmented by potent enchantments.

Max tugged at the blade defiantly if ineffectually. "Augh! What? Do I have 'thwart' tattooed on my damn head! Gimme that back!" he snarled, grabbing it with both hands and yanking.
Cregga growled lowly, limping backwards and into the darkness of the woods.
Peter shivered, looking up to see what had happened. He blinked at the figure moving through the smog and scrambled to his feet.

"Sit you on a bubble, feathered wench, or lean you against a wall?" the rider inquired somewhat grumpily, raising his scythe and sending a potent slowing hex into the shapeshifter.
"This needs not come to violence. Well, further violence, at the very least. I would much rather you, young people, stayed put until I have assured you have not taken anything of import from Reichten's hideout.
Unless, of course, one of you is in fact Edward Reichten, in which case I salute his - yours? - camouflage."
He prodded his mount lightly with his knees, causing the monstrous charger to step unhurriedly out of the smoke. The beast turned out to be one of the famed dreadsteeds of Xoroth, and its rider a pale, tall human with a short ponytail of auburn hair and mismatching eyes - the left brown, the right eerily murky white.
"Isn't all this struggling too much trouble for you?" the succubus smirked suggestively, caressing Max's face and loosing more spells into him.

"No, see, this is how I introduce myself. With a sword. And you're being
VERY
culturally insensitive! So gimme!" Max howled, yanking at the sword once more and rearing back. "And keep those hands away! Light knows where they've been and it's probably somewhere light never reached!"
Very much slowed, Cregga continued to back into the woods.

"Performance issues, Gesvene?" the rider asked peevishly.
"That's what she said!" the succubus replied cheekily, before opening her mouth wide and attempting to bite into Max's neck so as to administer the curse of sloth directly into his blood.
The warlock - and, seeing that he commanded a demon, the newcomer could be none other - rolled his eyes and raised his scythe once again, pointing the weapon at Max.
"I grow weary of the sound of your voice, little swordsman. Why persist in this futile gesture of defiance? Submit," he hissed, sending an exhaustion hex into Max, only narrowly missing his minion.

"Aughhhhh! Fake vampire *!@#!" he shrieked, punching the succubus in the head. "So lame...So very...very...lame..." he trailed off, his punches growing weaker until he was only papping her with an increasingly limp hand.

"And you wonder why I recommend you to wear a helmet and find some better way than a bite to access the victim's bloodstream. At least you wear real armor," the warlock admonished Gesvene, whose face was now richly covered in bruises, despite the speed with which the hexes took hold of Max.
The succubus pouted at her master, somehow losing none of her attractiveness despite being beaten up. The warlock rolled his eyes again, "Tie him up and you're dismissed for now."
Soon enough the young illusionist was secured in a horizontal position, wrapped in twine like a present for Winter Veil just waiting to be opened. And instead of the succubus attending to him on his chest sat a fine specimen of a felhound, wearing a wide black leather collar adorned with numerous rune-covered spikes, carved out of some bone.
"Do not slobber, Khadomo," the warlock ordered, causing the demonic beast to bark and wag its tail innocently.
"Silly dog..." he muttered affectionately, then shook his head.
"Let us start at the beginning. My name is Wilhelm Meyer and my activities are authorized by a patent of the Crown."
Meyer hopped off his high horse and snapped his fingers. His scythe dissipated into thin air, his mount assumed an appearance of a pinto and his robes, with their distinctive 'I'm-an-evil-possibly-insane-demon-worshiper' look, dissolved, giving place to an unbuttoned black velvet jacket over a plaid shirt, blue denim pants and a pair of leather boots.
"If anyone here kindly told me something about Reichten's hideout and what you found there, that would be great," he said, walking towards Irene.

Peter shrank back from the warlock sharply, fear painting the young priests face.
Max meanwhile growled from beneath the felhound, flexing his fingers and trying to restore motion to his limbs.

Khadomo barked once more, this time warningly rather than joyfully.
"I know, I can hear the quills bristling," Wilhelm nodded. He narrowed his eyes, sizing Irene up before continuing, "Do us all a favor and call off that creature, young lady. You can still speak, I hope? Or tap your foot twice for 'yes'? This corruption inside your body is gaining root fast, I would consider asking for help if I were you."

"Sir, please," Peter called in a trembling voice. "Don't want trouble. Rather, trying to avoid that. Came here to recover her. Not with them, them being the warlocks. Promise that. Believe you are from the crown, no reason not to. But, must insist, not our business. Were leaving. But. Had some...difficulties, in execution," he added looking towards the bound Max.
'Hey pal, guess which finger I'm trying to move," Max spat at the priest.

"Figures," Wilhelm rubbed the bridge of his nose. "And what exactly are you planning to do with her? She needs qualified help."

"Well? Come on, spit it out. You don't want her to turn into a demon and some other warlock bind her to his bidding, do you?" Meyer stared at Peter.

"Hadn't...expected such," Peter said defensively, failing to meet the warlocks eyes. "Only just arrived. Spent time finding out where she was. State not...considered. Need time to think about it. Ideas, but...other more pressing issues presented selves." He glanced towards Max.
