Cain vs. Marie O'Nette

Cain walked through the forest, keeping a watchful eye out. After a while, he noticed the sun had set, or maybe it had set long before, it was hard to tell with the trees overhead.
Just before he was about to go back and call it in, he saw a mansion in the dark. It was old, ruined, and abandoned, and it was exactly what he was looking for. An old mansion that sometimes appeared to those who delved too deep in the woods and snatches up those who enter, or so the rumor goes. Well, urban legend was more like with the way it was told, but Can took it as a challenge as a Ranger.
Without hesitation, he stole away swiftly into the mansion, the doors closing behind them of their own accord. "A visitor..."
A chill ran up his spine for a moment as he heard a girl's voice and what he assumed was her light-footed steps. Soon, a girl with smooth alabaster skin and silvery blonde hair stepped into the room, lit up by the moonlight spilling into the remains of what was once the main hall of the mansion through a hole in the roof. "Hello...have you come to play with me...?"

///Marie's Skills

Passive Skill: Undressable - Throughout the fight, with every article of clothing that's removed from her, her attacks become stronger and stronger, damage upping by one point with every lost article of clothing until she's fully nude. This does not include consistent bind damage.

////Attacks
On Strings - She approaches you and in one swift motion, she tangles her strings around you, preventing you from moving. "Play with me," she coldly requests as she stands on her toes and lays her lips upon yours and holds you there. Inflicts Bind status, 2 Willpower damage initially.

Damsel - Marie O'Nette's controls hovers upward, lifting her into the air above you before dropping to the ground. As she falls you reach out and catch her, saving her from a bad landing. She caresses your cheek and gazes into your eyes. "Thank you..." Leaning her head forward, she plants kiss on your cheek. 3 Willpower damage, Inflicts Charm Status.

Feign Faint - Like a puppet not in use, she falls to the floor. It seems like something happened, she could be unconscious right now. Doubles the next attack.

Dancing Marie - She requests your attention and bows as she dances for a moment before giving a twirl, her dress flying up a bit, just barely short of seeing her clit. 3 Willpower damage.

Undress Me - She walks your way and holds the hem of her dress. "Do you want to see what's under these? It's what you do with dolls, isn't it? Go ahead, undress me," she says. The first article to go is her shoes.
You drop to your knees, taking to her beautiful feet and gently lifting one foot at a time, removing her shoes.
The next one to go is her stockings. You've fought well so far, perhaps you could reward yourself by getting a glimpse at her pretty legs. You slowly slip her legs out of each stocking getting a small bonus from seeing her lovely bare feet in addition.
Further into the fight thereafter comes her dress, her last article of clothing. She walks toward you and turns around, allowing you to gently, slowly remove her beautiful dress. Her bare back and small but firm ass get you somewhat excited for what comes next. Once the dress falls to the floor around her feet, she lifts her feet up and steps away from it and turns around slowly, revealing her full beauty to you. "How do I look?" she asks calmly, waiting for your answer patiently. Four damage removing her shoes and stockings, five damage removing her dress.

Playing Dolls - You grab her clothes to cover her up and move towards her. In a rush to dress her back up, you lose your balance and fall over her, taking the both of you to the floor, embracing her naked body from pure accident. "You want to play with your doll?" she inquires, pressing her chest against you, wrapping her arms around you, her legs around your hips, grinding against your groin, and kissing you for major pleasure. 8 Willpower damage, Requires her to lose at least her stockings.

New Puppet (Finisher) - You fall to the floor, your resistance shattered. She stands over you, her beautiful body keeping your full attention as she bends over you and caresses your limbs. "Your strings broke," she says with cold observation. Taking her puppeteer's controls in her hands, she removed the strings attached to her and placed the object onto your chest. The strings rise into the air before seizing each of your limbs. Your arms, your legs, your head, and your hard rod. The strings raise you to your feet and keep you there as she smiled for the first time.
It was as if she were looking at a new pet or toy. With a swerve of her finger, she orders, "Come to me." Your legs move at the behest of the strings and you stand mere inches from Marie.
"Let's play~"
She swings her fingers around, willing the strings to move you as she will. Your hands rush to her breasts, massaging them and pinching her nipples. Your head closes in for a kiss, your lips and tongue worshipping her mouth. Your dick rises and penetrates her vagina, thrusting in and out of her. She plays with your body, treating it like a toy, but you don't care anymore.
"I'm going to keep you," she whispers in your ear as you climax.

This wasn't Cain's usual hunting grounds for good reason. Whispers spoke of this forest being cursed along with whatever people or creatures once lived here. A smart man wouldn't dare to enter. The problem was fools had entered before him and never come back. That made it his problem. Even as the sun set and he was forced to fish out a torch from his pack he stayed on the hunt rather than give up for the night.

He was rewarded with the eerie sight of the manor in the distance. A landmark that stuck out in a place like this. There was little doubt in his mind that this was connected. He wasted no time approaching it, giving the front door a gentle push open for stepping inside. He was ready to look this place over from top to bottom but it seemed he had no need. What seemed to be the only occupant showed herself freely, her voice cold and empty and her words bizzare. Despite ever bone in his body telling him to get out or put this things down he took a deep breathe and spoke to her.

"No. Right now I just want to talk."

// Cain Abilities

Normal Moves:

*Negotiate - Although Cain is a fighter, he knows it is better to make friends than enemies. Before a fight, Cain may attempt to peacefully negotiate with his attacker. (Stun for one round)

*Marksman - Cain quickly pulls an arrow from his quiver, nocks it, and fires it at his opponent. (2 stamina damge)

*Knife to meet you - Whipping out a dirk, Cain throws it with practiced ease towards his enemy. Although not necessarily lethal, the small knives can either whittle down an opponent's health or temporarily slow them down. (1 stamina damage or stun for one round)

*Up in smoke - Reaching into a pouch, Cain pulls out a small black orb. When thrown, it produces a cloud of billowing smoke, blinding anyone caught in it's radius, as well as slowing them down. (1 willpower damage.)


Special Moves

*Cloak and Dagger - Ducking past his opponent, Cain unclasps his cloak, before throwing it at the enemy. While they attempt untangle themselves, the ranger quickly launches three throwing daggers at them. (1-3 stamina damage, as well as stun for one round.)

*Into the Shadows - Cain attempts to use the environment to his advantage, using his cloak to blend in with his surroundings. However, as he wears only green, this move is useless in any environment besides a forest or field. (2 willpower damage.)

*Block out the sun - The ranger fires an arrow at his opponent's legs, pinning them in place. He then proceeds to fire arrow after arrow at them, until his quiver is empty or they manage to escape. (1 will power damage, 3 stamina damages, and stun for one round.)

"Talk?" she echoed with a slight crook of the head. "But I want to play..." Her puppeteer's controls rattled softly as she slowly approached the ranger.

This thing already unnerved him to the point that he was already going for the knife in his cloak but he refused to make the first move. It almost never worked but he wasn't about to drop an attempt at peace this time around. "I'm giving you a chance here. I don't want to do this the hard way but I will if you force me."

-Negotiate- 78, Success

She stopped for a moment and tilted her head again inquisitively. "Why don't you want to play with me?" she questioned. "It will be fun."

She wasn't listening. All she seemed to think about was 'playing'. It seemed he had no choice. He took a deep breathe before quick drawing a dagger, throwing it at her center of mass.

-Basic Attack-
He thrust his knife at her , the blade soaring through the air and hitting her in the chest. She made no sound, no cry of pain. The knife dropped to the ground and the damage to her body repaired.
-On Strings- 86, Success
"Play with me..." she said firmly. She moved her body around, a strange action in Cain's eyes, but suddenly his arms whipped to his sides, held firmly together. Marie came closer and pulled him in, laying her cold, yet pleasant lips upon his own, the sight of strings glistening in the moonlight being just barely visible in the corner of his sights.

Cain: 28 + Bind
Marie: 28

He was in shock with how ineffective his attack was. In truth he thought that whatever this thing was might have been some kind of ghost or just plain unhinged but as his blade hit something hard only for her to shrug it off and repair it... this was very, very wrong. The next thing he knew He couldn't move his arms, feeling them pin to his sides as she moved in to gently kiss him. Her shivered from the cold and pleasure mixed as he tried to move his arms and get away from her.

-Struggle- 60, Success
In spite of her kiss, Cain fought to lose his bindings and managed to free himself. Marie took pause at his quick recovery and his resistance, but drew her strings back and prepared for her next move.

Not wanting to risk another attack like that he jumped back and drew his bow, nicking an arrow into place and aiming at her. A part of him felt wrong, both morally and in terms of success, about shooting at such a figure but he lets the arrow loose regardless.

-Marksman- 98, Critical Success
He fired an arrow at her, hitting her square in the forehead, a very successful shot to be sure.
-Feign Feint- 28, Success
When the arrow made impact, Marie went limp and collapsed to the floor. With no movements thereafter, Cain couldn't help the idea that perhaps he did more damage than he intended.

Cain: 28
Marie: 24 (Double Damage for the next attack)

Cain paused as he waited for a reaction... and was shocked when nothing happened. Perhaps that was a foolish reaction. That'd been a shot through the head. He got up and walked towards her, prodding her with his foot. This had to be the fastest he'd ever taken down a monster like this.

-Damsel- 70, Success
Suddenly, the puppeteer's controls flew upward to the ceiling, pulling Marie's body with it. They remained suspended for a few moments, before Marie's body was dropped from so high up.
Acting without thinking, Cain reached out and caught her in his arms, surprised by how light she was. But even more surprised when she started moving again. She carressed his face and whispered, "Thank you..." And planted a kiss on his cheek.

Cain: 22 + Charm
Marie: 24

He was shocked as her body shot up towards the ceiling and he was almost ready to draw an arrow, ready to go for another shot before he realized she was dropping. His soft heart got the better of him as he dropped his bow and caught her in his arms before she could hit the ground. He was expecting a sharp punishment for letting his guard down like that but as she whispered her thanks and pecked him on the cheek he just felt his heart flutter. He got her back on her feet and pulled away from her, trying to get his head back on his shoulders as he breathed deeply and drew his blade again, hardening his heart as he tried to toss it at her.

-Knife to Meet You- 2, Success (Stun, 35, Failure)
In spite of his urges not to, he threw his knife at her, hitting her in shoulder, though it didn't hurt her much.
-Undress Me- 62, Success
As if his attack hadn't happened, she recovered and asked him, "Would you like to see what's under my clothes? That's what playing with dolls is, right? Come here and undress me."
And though he knew he had to fight her, the idea of doing so seemed like a wonderful thing. Cain reluctantly came forward, and Marie requested her shoes first. He got to his knees and pulled her shoes off, getting a good look at her legs, feet, and up her skirt, taking notice that she wasn't wearing anything under her dress.
Cain: 18
Marie: 23

"Why in the world would I do that?"

That's what he thought to say. Those words never left his lips though as he wordlessly nodded and stepped forward. He couldn't tell if it was magic, hypnosis or just a genuine desire to do what the uncannily flawless beauty wished of him. He got to see her dainty feet, up her tight stockings and then come. Seeing her bare under there, while arousing, also snapped him out of it. With the knife having fallen out of her wound a moment earlier he grabbed it and tried to hit her with it again.

-Basic Attack- 2, Success
He moved swiftly, attacking her with his knife and slashing her along her dress and across her chest. Once more, she recovered from the attack itself, but the attack had landed regardless...
-Dancing Marie- 91, Critical Failure
And the attacks seem to be working despite her body having not a scratch on it. In an attempt to twirl around, perhaps to dance, she lost her balance and fell to the floor hard, giving him a chance to strike again.

Cain: 18
Marie: 20 + Stun

With her on the ground after his last attack he pulled away and had plenty of time to grab his bow again. With such a clear opportunity he wasted no time notching another arrow and trying to figure at the pale beauty.

-Marksman- Stun: 59, Failure
He launched an arrow at her and hit her without fail as she attempted to pick herself up, damaging her further, but she didn't remain stunned like he might intended.
-On Strings- 74, Success
She approached him again, her movements a touch shakey from the attacks she's taken, but she moved forward nonetheless. Before he could ready another arrow to stop her, the glistening sight of string in his peripherals caught his attention and he was wound up once again. Before he realized it, she was right in front of him, pulling him in for another kiss.

Cain: 16 + Bind
Marie: 18

He was reaching for an arrow when he felt the bindings grab him again. While her unsteady movements were a bit offputting once she had his face in her hands and her lips on his he felt himself starting to melt a bit. Thoughts of what he'd seen while taking off her shoes came to mind and for a moment he just wanted to relax and think nothing more of this. Of course he couldn't let himself do that. He started to struggle before long, trying not to drown in the sweet feeling of her kisses.

-Struggle- 83, Failure
He attempted to untangle himself from the string yet again, but his attempt failed in his moment of weakness.

Cain: 15 + Bind
Marie: 18

Had he grown tired from this fight already or was he just having a hard time pulling away from her lips. Even he wasn't certain. He let himself enjoy the moment for just a heartbeat before he redoubled his efforts to try and escape.

-Struggle- 62, Success
Renewing his strength, he wrestled out of her clutches and distanced himself as quickly as possible.

Needing a moment of reprieve he decided that distracting her was the best choice. His fingers wrapped around a small, black pellet on his jacket and yanked it off before throwing it at her feet. It harmless went off only to shroud her and hopefully her vision in thick black smoke.

-Up in Smoke- 40, Success
He tossed the smoke bombs at her and it burst into a giant cloud of dark smoke, obscuring her vision.
-Feign Faint- 59, Failure
She was too preoccupied trying to find him through the smoke to think of tricking him again.
