Executioner... So, it's something like a combo of a Scavenger and a Colony Soldier, she realized. Except, War clansmen should obviously be more war-based. She wondered, if they have something like scientists in their clan.
DAMNED!
New blow she missed while thinking was symmetrical to the previous one, and her own attack was pitiful: she had no idea how to use the chain with such a close range. Well, she could see Shikoba specializes in a close combat: he surely was much better with the dagger than with an arrow!
"Like you see, I need a lot of training in a close combat. In my clan alchemists don't fight often, they do.. very different stuff. But I need to become stronger, that's why I'm studying combat, - like you study bow and arrows", she explained.

She couldn't help admitting that was a good advice, and actually quite obvious. The thing was, it wasn't really easy to adjust the chain length in a fight with the opponent who was a) winged; b) generally faster; c) more experienced in battling.
Eisheth sighed. Unfortunately, she was quite positive now the humans, these humans, this particular kind of humans, who defeated them, would be tougher enemies. That's why she does not accept any limits: she has to fight 100 times, 1000 times, 10,000 times, until she would finally be powerful enough.
That's where inspiration comes from, she smiled. She rushed towards Shikoba instead of drying to dodge: she was hit again, but managed to equally hit the executioner with the chain.
"I'm grateful for you advice", she smiled. "I would try not to let you down learning fast".

Shikoba was right, and Eisheth knew it. Horsemen were dangerous even without their weapons... actually, she was thinking about using one of her poisons... her favourite one. However, when she was almost ready, she stopped. No. That wasn't right. She was an alchemist, and that was only natural she was skilled in making various poisons, it was her specialization for her entire life, - but she won't get further, if she would keep relying on what she already knows. If she wants to move further, she needs to learn something new, she needs to learn how to fight in different ways.
Eisheth moved forward trying to grasp Shik's throat, but of course, she wasn't even near his speed. She smiled to War clansman: "What really fascinates me, if your ability to talk while fighting. I need to learn that, as well".

And she did! Carefully analyzing War clansman's moves Eisheth realized he was surprising her with every attack, never doing exactly what she expected. First, bow, then claws, then dagger, hands, feet, - Shikoba used every single part of his body as the weapon (she even wondered for a moment, would he butt her with his forehead at one point).
So, the alchemist decided to use the same strategy: she rushed towards Shik, and suddenly moved left jabbing him with the horn of the skull attached to her collar!
"I would love to learn this breathing technique thing later", she replied. "When we finish".
HP: 13/40 Damage: 1
Ol-j-man Lol, I dunno, if that counts as the surprise, though I certainly keep surprising her and myself with the fail dicerolls razz

What she liked about War clan already, was their practical way of thinking. The only difference was War mainly concerned about battle, and Famine dedicated to surviving at any cost, but aside that fact they were much closer, than, say, Conquest or Death: both clans seemed to be rational and avoid unnecessary crap like Death beliefs, or Conquest formalities.
"Nope", she smiled stepping back after Shik's attack. "It's not the right time. And also, I must learn to make it without... it". Proving her words she suddenly released the chain she was holding in her hand, and hit the executioner still smiling at him.
HP: 10/40 Damage: 2
Ol-j-man Oh, I need to find and read Shik's first battle then! Does Shik ICLy know about hunters, btw?

"I guess, it differs depending on the rank", Eisheth replied. "I'm the alchemist, and we are very different from scavengers, who are in charge of harvesting fear, or colony soldiers, who are... well, soldiers. Each alchemist had its own specialization, which empowers them. My studies are.. poisons. And antidotes. So my FEAR is poisonous. But I try not to rely on it much", she explained.
Eisheth noticed she has hit Shik's hand several times during the batte; it was bleeding. If only she could focus enough to keep hitting the same spot, it should probably weaken the executioner...
HP: 10/40 Damage: 0
Ol-j-man AH, lol, no, I mean, did he meet them personally biggrin Since, Eisheth was in one of the lairs in human world when the event occurred (I think, I THINK, though I might be wrong, that only auction horsemen were supposed to be with Medea and her group during the event, and all the raffle ones were staged in the lairs....)
