Five hundred years ago, when feudalism was still around, a great and powerful lord had been given an enviable amount of land. The man was given leadership of many knights. However, one was more famous than all, for that particular knight was involved with one of the most legendary of thieves...

Username: GracefulVampireGirl Character Name: Viktoria Kalina Sidorov Role: Thief Bio: Viktoria grew up not knowing who her father was and why he left. Her mother would never speak of him and over time, Viktoria had stopped asking questions. The only thing that she knew was that they had been married for a short time and that they were both Russian, hence the name they had given their daughter even though Viktoria herself knows nothing about Russia. When she was sixteen, her mother became ill and slowly died 3 months later. Viktoria doesn't know what she got that had made her die but she did know one thing; Viktoria needed to keep herself alive and make some sort of living for herself. After trying, and failing, at many sorts of different tasks she grew frustrated that none were working out for her. Being desperate for food once, she stole some from a small bakery and that when she got the idea that she would simply become a thief and make herself a life that way. Although, she does have her reserves when it comes to who she steals from. She lives the poor people alone and tends to go after the more wealthy for two reasons. One, the wealthy have more interesting stuff for her to take. And two, there's always a bigger thrill when stealing from someone weathly for she almost always gets a good chase going on purpose. Personality: Viktoria is a very decieving and cunning sort of person. She likes to tease and joke around with others in a playful manner and will often take the names of other people to keep the suspicion off of herself. Loves a good chase and loves it even more when she is almost caught, it gives her that thrill that she just can't get enough of. If things don't go her way though, she can get easily frustrated or angered but usually hides it fairly well. She's also a very good liar which has proved very useful in her life as a thief. Image:

Viktoria Kalina Sidorov xxxViktoria snuck a small glance over her shoulder just in time to see a few sharply dressed men run past where she had just turned and stood hiding behind a large draft horse. The horse snorted softly as she pressed up against his side and waited the for the men to turn another corner, keeping her breathing quiet and steady even though she had just run for quite some time. When she was sure the men were out of her sight and weren't going to turn back, she stepped away from the horse an gave it a small pat on his neck before she walked down the streets once more, headed in the direction of her house about a few miles outside of the town. Her hair was pinned into a loosely styled bun underneath of her hood, a precaution that she had to take for a few reasons. More then anything, her long white hair was a very obvious feature that she had and she didn't want people to recongnize her by it and another, slightly lesser reason, was that it was a nuisance when it would sometimes get in her way or blow into her face and hinder her eye sight from something that might be of importance. She gently patted a part of her cloak and could feel the small object that she had procured tonight. It was an extravagant looking necklace that she had, quite literally, plucked right off the neck of a young woman. The young man who had been courting the lady that evening had ran after her and taken a few of his friends along, but it hadn't taken Viktoria very long to lose them; a fact that she was both a little disappointed and glad in. The necklace was way too fancy for Viktoria to even consider keeping such a thing for herself, rather, she planned to sell if for a good deal of money. She'd been contemplating on where she would sell it at and thought she had the perfect place in mind, she would go there in a few days she supposed. She lifted up a fold of her cloak to take a quick peek at the necklace and she roughly estimated its worth before she once again made sure it was concealed properly within the fold of her clothes. Viktoria kept walking along the dirt road, the bright shining, silver moon helping her see her way. She hummed a soft tune to herself as she walked with quiet steps.
((I went ahead and made the first post. I hope that was alright.))

((It's ok.))
Sighing in boredom, Kyle looked around the town from his vantage point. Nothing appeared to be out of place. The night air chilled him through his armor, but he ignored any discomfort. He had to keep a sharp eye out for anything that dangered the peace of the city that he was in charge of protecting.

Viktoria Kalina Sidorov xxxViktoria kept walking a long at a steady pace, keeping her cloak pulled tight around her. A few minutes later she heard shouts coming from behind her, the things they were saying she could just barely make out but she was sure of one thing; they were the few men that were pursuing her whom she thought she had lost. She looked over in the direction that she heard them and saw them running towards her, but they were still a good distance away. A small smile flickered across her face as she went running through the woods on the left side of the road, amazingly not catching her cloak on a single tree or bush that she passed. Behind her, she could hear the men yelling that she'd gone into the woods and Viktoria smiled smugly. It was much darker within the woods seeing as the moonlight did not fitler through the thick canopy of trees above and with Viktoria's dark cloak, she blended into the night extremely well.

((Oh, shoot! Forgot about this RP! redface ))
Kyle took out his telescope to gaze over the dozing town. He saw a group of men running after a smaller figure through the streets of the town. The smaller figure had soon lost the men. Whoever the smaller figure was, they had fled into the woods. Quite suspicious. Curious, he climbed down the ladder of the vantage point, soon arriving back on the ground. He quickly turned and started to run towards the woods. Whistling a shrill call, his trusty dog soon bounded up to him and began running alongside him.

Viktoria Kalina Sidorov xxxViktoria continued to run through the woods, quickly and silently as always. When she had gotten far enough distance between her and the men she swung herself up onto a branch of a large tree and the climbed a few more branch's of the tree to hitch herself higher. She sat on the branch and watched the men below run right by the tree a few minutes later, still thinking that she was ahead of them. Once they'd passed by, she allowed herself a small laugh at their ignorance. She looked back the way she had come to see a knight also running through the the woods as well. While she assumed the knight would be more vigilant on checking places such as tree's she didn't know if he would see her or not. Then she noticed the dog trotting beside him and she had no doubt that the dog would smell her scent at the base of the tree and look up spotting her sitting in the branches. Damn, she thought to herself as she decided that she would just stay put on the branch for right now.
[[OOC: Lol, alright. No problem, I just thought you didn't want to continue it or something. XD]]

The dog led Kyle on a winding path through the woods. Whoever they were pursuing was used to retreating into the woods and making an escape. Was it a thief, or was this all a misunderstanding of a child playing tag in the day? But that wouldn't explain the figure running into the forest. Maybe they were following the wrong scent trail? He wished he could talk to his dog, but that was impossible. Sighing, he pressed on, following his dog diligently.
The dog looked up suddenly and turned its head back and forth. They were now below the tree Viktoria was hiding in. The dog started to sniff again and started to circle the tree.

Viktoria Kalina Sidorov xxxViktoria watched the dog and the knight as they drew ever closer to the tree in which she was hiding in. She frowned slightly when she noticed that the dog had picked up on her scent and started to circle the tree. She thought of making up a story and make it seem like she was the helpless victim in all this and that the men had been pursuing her to nothing more then harm her, but she dismissed the thought after a few seconds and instead said the first thing that came to her mind. "Using a dog to track someone is cheating," she said from the tree branch as she looked down at the man, just barely able to make out some of his features in the limited amount of moonlight there was in the woods. "If you can't track someone yourself, then there is no fun in the task," she said with a nod of her head as she smirked slightly thinking that this was true. Viktoria had her fair share of time tracking down people who held in their possesion items of interest to her and she'd always had fun in the challenge along with a bit of frustration at times.

The moon showed its face through the clouds, lighting up the tree with its light. It showed both faces to one another. "I want to know what you're doing out in the forest at this time of night and why those men where chasing you." said Kyle in an official-sounding voice. Judging by the size of her, this was no doubt the smaller figure he had seeing fleeing.

Viktoria Kalina Sidorov xxxViktoria laughed a little, amused by what he asked of her. "Oh do you now? I know you're a knight but I don't follow any authority very well so I think I'll keep why I was being chased a secret from you," she said to the man with a tone that really did imply that she wasn't to follow any orders or give him any responses that she didn't want to give. "Beside's, maybe I just like hanging out in the forest, in a tree, at night, when it's kind of freezing cold out here," she said, her fingers and face were cold to the touch from the cool weather. "Though, that doesn't explain why the men are out here. Maybe you should go ask them, but like idiots, they ran right by me," she said as she laughed softly once more as she continued to stay up in the tree for a little while longer.

Kyle gave a stone-cold look at her. "If you don't tell me why you're hiding there, I'll need to bring you in for questioning until we get an answer from you. I would talk if I were you." he said loudly so that she wouldn't miss any part of what he had said.
