Warriors Past [Musou | Brandt]

[Oda Nobunaga]

In the middle of the conflict at Ise, Brandt would find himself lost in a new world. Once he blinked, his eyes would reopen to a completely different environment. The land was barren, there was no Amakusa army, and there were old weapons and corpses scattered about. The Nord would find that no matter where he looked, the land seemed to stretch on forever.

[Brandt Solveig]

W-what!?

Brandt was at a complete loss as to what had just occured. One second before he was at Ise and the next he was in a barren wasteland. In some ways it reminded Brandt of home. Those pale green hues stared around at the torn battlefield which seemed to stretch in every direction. Hundreds upon hundreds of weapons scattered about, or resting vertically in the ground

If I'm not mistaken.. Valhalla!? But, I did not die, did I!?

Oblivious to the truth of the matter, Brandt would continue to search the area. There had to be some kind of reason as to why this had happened. Maybe he had been put under some kind of foriegn spell. Regardless, he would call out even though he didnt think he would get a response.

"Heelloo!? What is the meaning of this!?"

[Oda Nobunaga]

"Brandt Solveig," a voice would start as a shape seemed to take form in front of Brandt. The wind and sand would gather into a single mass, forming an effigy of Bishamonten. The God of War looked down upon the Nord, towering a whole four feet above him.

"You have been chosen."

Wordlessly, the being disappeared, and all around Brandt, weapons would begin to levitate. Fifteen swords would be thrust at his waist from all sides.

[Brandt Solveig]

Chosen?

The nord stood there in silence, confused about what was taking place at this moment. However the figure that appeared disipated and that was when the weapons rose upward. Gritting his teeth, the warrior readied his Zanbato in preparation.

When the sword came in, Brandt would magnatize the handle of his Zanbato and begin to spin on his heels. Swinging his massive sword around he would look to try and sweep them all up onto his sword as he spun, the shield on his back protecting him from strikes from behind. 

If he collected them all as he was attempting, he would continue to spin a couple more rotations and then aimed to reverse the magnatization and shoot the weapons as far away from him as he could.

[Oda Nobunaga]

Brandt successfully gathered the spears, though the weight of them would prove stressful, even for one as strong as the Nord! As he tossed them away, they would all stop mid-air and turn perpendicular to the ground, the blades shooting into it. A glow would appear from ten spots, and ethereal warriors would seem manifest from the energy of souls that radiated within the area.

These ten warriors charged at Brandt from all sides. Two from the back launched their spears toward his kneecaps, two from the front sought to impale his chest, and the remaining six held their spears at the ready to counterattack.

Ethereal Knights:
10 in all stats.

[Brandt Solveig]

While he had struggled under the weight, he had managed to sweep and bladt the swords away, only to watch them freeze in mid air and shoot to the ground. Once he saw the glow, and the ghastly soldiers came fourth, Brandt would prep himself for whatever may come.

He would wait from them to come in before he would activate his whirlwind abilitie to blow back the incoming knights and then he would attempt to rush the ones that had held back, activating the explosive shield he had to try and take out any behind him, launching himself forward in an attempt to slash at the ones in front of him as he was shot forward.

[Oda Nobunaga]

Brandt's tactic was successful! His whirlwind tore apart those who rushed at him initially, and the explosive on his shield took out another three! The burst he got from shooting forward also allowed him to cleave the remaining three in half!

In place of the ten, five of the ethereal valkyries would rise up, this time with wings and javelins. The five took a good distance between themselves and the Nord, and once they were about thirty feet away, they began launching ethereal javelins in his direction from all sides!

Ethereal Valkyries:
20 in all stats

[Brandt Solveig]

Brandt would successfully manage to fend off the first wave of etheral knights, however five etheral Valkyries rose up to take their place. Those pale eyes only widened at the sight. Again he found himself wondering if he had truely fell on the battlefield. However there was still hope inside and he eould show the gods a will like any other.

I cannot have died! I have much to do in this life!

Bracing himself for what he saw as the most likely of attacks, the Nord grasped at his Aegis of Vörn to pull it and the lift it over his head and slam the botten down into the ground in front of him., after pushing his blade into the earth behind him.

This would.give him optimum coverage in front of him, while the thick, wide flat of Brandt's blade would cover the majority of his back side. He thought it unlikely that he would block all javalins, but he was sure he would manage to block the majority of them without suffering any more then a fleshwound or two.

Regardless of the damage he might suffer to his own body, the nord would grasp the brackets on the inside of his shield as he roared out and lifted that heavy shield, twirling before he would release it, the bladed edfes yearning for anything to rip through as the shield flew on. And after the throw he would turn on his toes, and lift his right hand to rapidly expel a barrage of arrows toward any valkrie he saw upon turning.

"YOU WILL NEVER CLAIM MY SOUL! NOT UNTIL I AM READY TO DIE!"

[Oda Nobunaga]

Brandt would be able to block the majority of the javelins, but he would find one rip into his side, and another graze his cheek. Before the valkyries could prepare for another attack, however, his shield would rip through two, and his arrows would pierce one's head, the three falling to the ground. Of the two who remained, one summoned five more javelins and launched them toward him from behind, while one charged toward him and sought to rip a blade through his kneecaps.

[Brandt Solveig]

"I stand defiant, even against the gods! You will never bring me down!"

Brandt would roar out as he watched another valkyrie rush him. He cast a quick glance behind him he would catch sight as the five javalins formed. It was then the giant would react, taking two big steps backwards as he jumped and angled himself backwards. 

Brandt would activate his shield to launch himself into the sky, angled so that he may be moved in the air toward the valkyrie behind him. His hopes were that the javalins thrown finish off the charging valkyrie, while Brandt would twist and swing his sword in a wide arc as he moved in the air toward the valkryie initially behind him.
