Tiberius (played by MugoUrth)

Nightfall had stricken in a huge forest. A giant creature lurked about. It was eight feet tall, a spiraling black horn and dull yellow fur. It had feet as long as a teenage human was tall, enlarged muscles with spikes protruding from the creatures great arms, and a face as ugly and mindless looking as it gets. Yet out through the night, it enchountered many elves in the forest. And every time it enchountered one... it tried to run away.

"There's no more escape for you, wretchid behemoth!" one of the elves cried. "This will be the last time you rear your ugly head upon our village! Tomorrow your execution will be most tremendous as our whole city will witness your downfall."

Eventually, the creature was cornered into a large sequoya tree. The creature did something else you wouldn't expect. The creature held its hands out. It looked like he was trying to grab one of the elves. But an elf at the side struck a spear right in its arm. The creature seemed like he was holding his potential back, as its actions were easy to read and overcome. ...Or were they?

"You're not trying very hard to fight back," one of the elves mentioned. "You know your doom is coming and you are just going to accept it, is that right? What a shame. We were kind of hoping for a challenge, but you obviously know your place."

The creature then roared at the entire group. It started to show tears near it's eyes. The tears mixed with all the drool coming out of it's mouth, so it was hard to see. But at that moment, it finally started to attack. It slammed it's fists into the ground, and all the elves surrounding him flew into the air. This creature was now ready to brawl. He stomped to and fro, his giant feet creating shockwaves which caused the elves to jump from the ground every time. He swung his mighty fists every time an elf got close to him. At that moment, you could see the creature's true power.

But that struggle was all for nothing. Caught off guard from above, a couple of elves in the trees got the drop on him. Well thrown spears lodged right into his back, weakening the creature but not killing him. But it did give the elves enough time to use magic to restrain the beast. Multiple elves cast vibrant purple beams aimed at the great beast that started to wrap around his arms and legs. One more cast the beam around his neck. Soon, it looked like the great beast was done fighting. It watched as more elves came with a giant cage.

"Aww, such a shame all that energy went to waste," one of the other elves said. "Don't worry. Come tomorrow it will all be over. ...Oh what am I saying. You can't understand a word coming out of our mouths. You are just a mindless beast."

As the elves were loading the great beast into their cage, all of them were oblivious to the real danger of which would befall them soon. It was possible that no one would truly know until it was too late.
"Jackie!"called an Elf mother. Soon Jackie poked her head around the corner in her house. "Yeah?"She asked. "Lunch is ready."Responded Jackie's mother. "Okay."Jackie said, before running off to get her siblings. After a short while Jackie returned, heading into the kitchen to get her food, with her mother groaning. "Why are you still wearing those pajamas?"She asked. "Because I like them. They're comfy and they look cool."Jackie replied.

Jackie's mother sighed, shaking her head. "Before you go anywhere you're going to change into some normal clothes."Jackie's mother said adamantly. "What?! Why?!"Jackie asked. "Firstly, you're nineteen. Footy Pajamas are something your youngest sister would wear. And even then, she doesn't! Plus, you've been wearing that thing for weeks! Have you even washed it?"Jackie's mother asked. "Just make your lunch and go eat."Jackie's mother said. "Did your brother or sisters get up?"Jackie's mom asked, with Jackie shaking her head. Jackie's mother sighed before walking off into the house.

Jackie made her lunch grumbling about how she should be able to choose what she wore, no matter how childish or stupid it was. Soon, an idea crossed her mind as a grin spread across her face. Jackie grabbed her plate and darted for the front door, managing to get outside and close the door before her mother returned. "FREEDOM!"Jackie declared heading off into the town.

Jackie roamed the town for a while, having eaten her food and ditched the plate. Soon, a crowd had gathered, which got her attention. "Hey, what's going on over here?"Jackie asked one of the people in the crowd.

"Here we have a real treat for you today," one of the elves from the hunt mentioned. Behind him was a giant cage draped in a red cloth. The cloth was moving a lot. "Captured fresh from the woods last night is a terrible creature of which no one has ever seen. This creature is responsible for destroyed forestation, a desecrated village, and many dead elves. The execution will take place soon. I give you ... Emperor Tiberius."

Eventually the elves uncovered the cage and revealed the giant creature behind the curtains. It was the same creature from last night. The giant rabbit was clutching onto the cage, looking out to see a crowd of elves. It seemed odd, but he actually looked sad. He wasn't even trying to break free, he just looked sad and was clutching the cage. Of course, he looked strong enough to break the cage, but the cage was actually tougher than it looked. Was the creature as evil as it seemed.

The one the elves called "Emperor Tiberius" gave a low growl. Once again, it seemed like a sad growl. It's obvious the creature was capable of destruction, but was he truly dangerous?
"He looks sad..."Jackie said. "How do we know he did all that stuff?"She asked. "I mean, did someone see him causing trouble?"Jackie asked.

"Quite so we did," one of the hunter elves told her. "There's even witnesses of the creature going on a rampage after being spotted in the town over."

...But the question was: did he do any of it on purpose. Was this creature really what he seemed, or was he a gentle creature trapped inside a great beast's body.
Jackie glanced at Tiberius, and soon left. After several hours the crowd had dispersed and the sun began to set. Thankfully, the guards weren't the brightest and left to the village's bar. Soon, Jackie headed to the cage. "Uh... hi. Can you talk?"She asked walking up to the cage.

Tiberius looked down at the newcomer elf. He didn't feel the sense of danger from her that he got from the other elves. He let out a quiet growl, hoping not to come off as scary. It didn't seem like the great beast could talk.
"Can you understand me?"Jackie asked.
Tiberius (played by MugoUrth) Topic Starter

Tiberius nodded at the elf. It was obvious he knew their language.
"Well, that's good."Jackie said, sitting on the ground. "Did you do anything that those guys said you did?"Jackie asked.
Tiberius (played by MugoUrth) Topic Starter

Tiberius turned his head away and brought his fingers together before nodding yes. It showed that he DID do those things, but not because he wanted to.
"Why'd you do that stuff?"Jackie asked.
Tiberius (played by MugoUrth) Topic Starter

Tiberius growled a bit more in a way that told her it would be hard to say. He started to point at the other elves and then... he shivered. He was trying to say he was scared of them. He then covered his head with his arms, showing more fear.
Jackie scratched her head, not sure what Tiberius meant. "Can you write?"She asked.
Tiberius (played by MugoUrth) Topic Starter

Tiberius nodded his head, confirming that he could write. ...Except he didn't have anything to write with, and his hands were too big for pens and paper. Tiberius then pointed to the dirt on the ground. He scooped the same hand towards the inside of the cage. It looked like he was trying to tell Jackie to throw dirt into the cage, and lots of it.
Jackie nodded, beggining to dig in a similar fashion to a dog. After a short while thee was a large pile of dirt in the cage for Tiberius to use.

Tiberius then used a spike on his arm to write in the dirt.

"I am Tiber Ius," he wrote. "I am from a species of creatures known as Almiraj."

After Jackie had read what he wrote, he shuffled the dirt around to write a new message.

"Our people grant one member of their colony the power to become a Great Almiraj.
I am who my colony chose. As a Great Almiraj, I have heightened abilities.
We are blessed with such strength so we may hunt big game to feed our colony.
However, we lose our ability to speak, which is how I entered this problem.
Many elves consider me a monster and tried to kill me.
Many things I have done were by accident, and I meant no harm to anyone.
But I ended up hurting many elves in my defense as a Great Almiraj.
The only way I can turn back is to revisit my colony and hold onto
the Stone Ring of the Great Beast."
"Oh, well, I think I can get you out of that cage."Jackie said, standing up. "Are you gonna need help getting to your colony?"Jackie asked.

"I don't think so," Tiberius wrote. "But maybe someone to help my image.
I'm not the horrible monster the others think I am."
"Well, if you're gonna try and prove the stuff you did wasn't an outright attack, then you'll need to get out of that cage."Jackie said, standing up. "But, I know how to get you out."She said enthusiastically.
