Race - Fairy
Class - Forest/elemental spirits
Fairy's are one of the most common sprites which could be found in the forest. All fairies love to dance, sing, confuse others, joke/prank in a childlike way, and are often harmless to all creatures. They take the appearance of human children, however, some will take adult forms but they will still be quite small. They spread a youthful and jollification aura around them, as well as they are capable of suppressing negative emotions in beings around them.
Even though they look really innocent and harmless they are capable of using light, nature and teleportation magic (however it will depend on the fairy's element) which is effective against undead or creatures of darkness(hell). If they are attacked they will run away until they meet other groups of fairies, which will lead them to team up against you.
But in no case should you fight them for a long time in one place. After all, they are simply trying to hold you back while others open a portal to the spirit world or the fairy world. Or they can summon a treant to protect them.
********************************************************************
In one of the many paths of the cave, 3 creatures could be seen facing each other, 2 of them were creatures with red skin, small wings but in this case, only one of them had 2 wings. They have hooves and still growing curved horns. Opposite of them stood an insect of the same height as them. The insect had a dark blue crystal shell and a crystal growing out of its butt. None of the creatures moved or showed even the slightest signs of aggression towards each other.
Some may assume that they are just looking at each other, others will assume that they are about to cling to each other's throats. Nevertheless, they will be deeply mistaken in their guesses.
Those creatures were talking to each other but not by words or hand gestures. They were communicating in a unique way that only mages will understand.
While they communicated with each other, another creature secretly watched them. But it doesn't interfere with their dialogue and quietly waits for them at one of the many rooms of the cave.
Edgar's pov
While Riku was trying to invite our little guests into our cave, I was thinking about what chess piece I should give to each one of them.
After all, each chess piece has its own advantages and disadvantages. I guess I should wait until they join me and only then give them one of my pieces.
Looks like they are done. I think I should come closer to the entrance.
Edgar: 'Riku before you tell me anything can I ask you to answer my question and then ask the same question to the imps.'
Riku: 'Aaaa? Shure...'
Edgar: 'Do you accept me as your leader or a king if I'm going to be precise'
Riku: 'Well to be honest with you I don't mind calling you king and following you, but I would prefer just calling you Edgar or leader. After all, calling you king just doesn't sound right.'
Edgar: 'What's about the imps?'
Riku: 'Wait a sec.'
Riku: '...'
Riku: ' They both agree to follow you.'

********************************************************************
I just want to explain how the damage works now so you won't have questions later on. For example, imagine an imp fighting a human. An imp can dill 6 damage, If an imp manages to land a hit at a non-protected point or area somewhere on the body he will deal 6 damage. if he hits armour, scales his damage will be decreased or nullified if said armour or scale has hire protection. However, all creatures in this world have weak points and landing a hit there can double or even triple the damage taken by the being or it can be killed immediately
I will live magic out for now.
********************************************************************
Edgar: 'Can you hear me?'
3 voices: 'Yes'
Edgar: 'Good, now listen carefully I will explain some plans for the future and give you something at the end of our small meeting.'
Edgar: 'As you could have understood, from now on you follow me and I advise you to listen to me. Since there are four of us now, our main task is to gain exp, get resources, food and try to evolve into a new species or higher stages. I am not a maniac who only like to hunt, so today we will wait it out, I advise you to rest and from tomorrow morning or evening we will start hunting and exploring the caves. But before I let you go, I have two unfinished business with you. The first is to give everyone names. The second is to give you chess pieces or a rank for simplicity. Do any of you have questions?'
One wing imp: 'What are chess pieces and how will we use them?'
Edgar: 'Each piece or let's just call them chessman is a rank on the battlefield and that piece will give you a different bonus. For example, a pawn will give you 3 additional evolutions, increase your main attribute and give you 2 additional skills. Any more questions.'
Second imp: 'Which piece get we?'
Edgar: 'You need to improve your speaking skills but we will worry about that later. The pieces you and your friend will get are pawns and Riku will get the bishop.'
Edgar: 'you will momentarily know what each piece does when you will get it.'
As soon as Edgar finished his sentence, 3 pieces appeared before their eyes. Еhey slowly flew up to each of the creatures and drove into their heads.
*Ding
System: '3 creatures were given chess pieces.'
Edgar: 'Now I need to name you all… well that's pretty easy: Riku will be called Riku, you one wing friend from now on will be called Izbor and you will be called Margan.'
Edgar: 'Well that's it I will see you tomorrow and now I'm going to sleep.'
Finishing his little speech Edgar stumbled to his leaf made bed and quickly fall asleep
Riku's pov
Riku: 'I feel like I got stronger as soon as I was given a bishop. Look at those new skills, I guess I will get a chance to try them out later on in the fight or I can practise further away from the cave so I don't disturb them.
Nah It's too dangerous for me to go out and roam on my own. After all, I don't have any skills or knowledge on how to protect myself.
I should go and try that salamander which Edgar brought in not long ago maybe it will taste good.'
With that thought, Riko quickly crawled to the lizard's body and started to munch on the corpse.
While he was eating both of the imps were looking for the spot to rest, after all, they had a tough fight today and they weren't going to risk going out without Edgar or Riku. In the end, they found free moss in the corner of the room and used it to make a small area for themselves.
