Are you including us?Gaia will defend his master until the death, even if he has to sacrifice everything for her.
Hopefully NO characters dieI'm not giving out spoilers.
Most likely not. His ritual sacrifices have to be willing sacrifices or else the ritual will not work. Any character deaths will happen in ooc before ic, right?
WelpThis took way longer than I thought, but code is fun so I made it work, yay!
I want to play a more flavor role, so I'd be taking the job as support; think another Solomon except not out to kill everyone.
Hi DANI!
BlightGiver Just tell me if I need to change stuff and when I can jump it XD
Alexandria Bartholomew Rehema
no slide
Personality: Not you're Average Magus
Alexandria is... confusing. Normally, she's one of the warmest people in the room, kind, gentle, indulgent even, but on the flip side she has a mischievous streak miles wide. More often than not, the smile she wore hid some more sinister plot... but the furthest she ever goes are practical jokes: mere inconveniences ranging from materializing something like a Roman Cushion to throwing her voice to confuse those she speaks to. With a smile, she can brighten a room and with a few short words she could inspire laughter, though more often than not, it's her own mirth that fills her ears. She's in love with the idea of humor, forcing the world in the perspective of a comedy; something light, cheerful, and most of all, entertaining.
She's a kind woman to an extent, thinking of others when she could and always aiming for an end that would please everyone if possible. She is, however more willing to accept the reality that not everything is bright and beautiful, she she has resolved to try her hardest to find some light in every situation. She very much enjoys the feeling of freedom, of wandering aimlessly through wide open spaces and that little habit gets her into trouble at times. She's capable enough to get herself out though; as one who willingly flirts with mischief, she knows how to escape as well as ensnare whenever fate decides to play.
She is intelligent, though it's never immediately apparent as she often speaks of dreams and ideals rather than cold hard facts. She knows a great many things and loves learning just as much as she loves life, though she rarely uses such a thing to claim the pretense of superiority. She's been rather secretive as of late when it comes to sharing her knowledge, though this is a rather normal trait for most magi. Regarding more mundane things however, she is more that willing to tell the all who would lend and ear the wonders of the new age and often bemoans the fact that her unique upbringing prevented her from enjoying such marvels earlier.
In combat, though she actively avoids such situations, she's all but impossible to predict; quickly changing strategies and leveraging her extensive knowledge to bring the opponent to heel. She can end most battles after a few lines, though strangely enough she only goes for the kill when there is absolutely no other option.
History: it's a long one
The last heir to the dwindling line of Rehema, keepers of the once proud Library of Alexandria, Lexa was always an inquisitive child. She would devour knowledge like one would expect from an alchemist of Atlas and retain it with perfect clarity thanks to the Family's Sorcery trait. She had a more mundane childhood than most, most of her time spent with her nose in some tome, browsing scrolls, or perusing research and records instead of playing around. Well, she was allowed to experiment whenever she wished, though she didn't take to that as quickly as a child normally would. She was content then, you see, and the tomes and books and scrolls and papers were enough to fill her mind with things she didn't know but desperately wanted to. As a Magus Family, they were always odd, being content to simply safeguard and collate the knowledge of magecraft rather than undertake research of their own to further the path towards the Root... Well that wasn't right. In time she learned how to used magecraft, with all the power and control her family was blessed with despite her place in Atlas, but they didn't work to go back to the Root, but rather to surpass it. Her family line was one who sought the infinite pathways of the future into and evermore infinite end rather that return to the unobtainable beginning.
This was much more apparent in her considering her strange Dual Origin. To Consume would validate her hunger for knowledge but to Evolve was something that went against all sensibilities of Magi, to advance to the future rather than towards the Root of all things. This made her indispensable at Atlas, that even if her prowess with the Rooms and Calculations were at par with the majority, her creativity as well as tenacity brought her far into the Art of Creating World Killers. She could grasp what normal magic could not, and to combine the ingenuity of man with the power of the gods was something that Atlas strived for since completing their computer.
Even as a child she consumed everything they could give her; the method to create Pseudo-Spiritons was simple to her, the workings of Ether and how the Counter Force would actively avoided was committed to memory, the Black God was successfully recreated despite it still being sealed into the caverns of the World, and even the Great Curtain Pillar was analyzed with the full consent of the Successor of Mercury. She climbed the ranks quickly, as she was expected to because of her strangeness, her brokenness as a Magus, but they did not give her a Sealing Designation; One did not challenge a World Ender, especially when they were content to tinker away in the Caverns of the World. She dove into long forgotten magics, from the useless to the obscure, from the impossible to the most effortless. She didn't need to know when or where she would use a particular miracle, or if she would ever need it in the far flung future, but endlessly she dove into knowledge for the joy of filling herself with their wonders. She accumulated it for the sake of accumulating it, and even as her repertoire broadened, her knowledge was elevated. Concepts were fused, unified, before being undone or discarded. Things deemed inseparable were torn apart to its barest bones before those were practiced and observed. She would evolve magic, analyzing, lumping them together, utilizing the infinite permutations hidden within each combination to increase knowledge and thus increase in joy.
For learning was always fun, no matter what she knowledge she gained.
And then, suddenly, Atlas had nothing left to teach her. Of course Atlas was in the business of Prediction and Prevention, but they thought; they didn't know. They Predicted, but they didn't record. The infinity of combination was still there, and it would always be there, but Atlas itself had nothing more to add. It was like being able to mix every paint on a palate, but in doing so nothing was left in the tube. Atlas, her home for all her life, suddenly turned into a prison that was to hold her for eternity, for no one would let loose a World Ender. For that's what she had become; when there was the Black Barrel, the Sealed Order of Knights, The Pillar that Holds the Other Side, she had become the Forbidden Grimoire; that which knew.
So she ran away, to escape the cave and go out into the world, as one of the famous philosophers would say. She was free for a time but Atlas, arrogant titan as it was, denied her this. They held the world, it was but a simple matter to retrieve her, but like the being of legend, it allowed for a labor, a task to be accomplished in exchange for freedom.
She entered a Fake War under a false observer, and there she learned much in regards to the servants and how they work. True, the honor of the victor went to another but she had gotten what she had needed, and that was enough. She had her freedom, and though her servant was defeated, they parted on good terms, both of them more than satisfied. With the help of a select few, they were able to perfect the Ritual after a more secret attempt but this time they had confirmed the hypothesis; the Grail they had created was not enough to punch a hole into the Root. Of course that lead to more questions, but such was her life now that she was free, she could attend to such frivolities in her own time.
She decided to enter Chaldea on a whim; given how horribly run their replica was and the disaster surrounding the organisation, she decided to give them a helping hand.
As A Magus: Short description of course
Keepers of Alexandria:
Lexa is proficient in basic magecraft and frighteningly with most known magecraft not classified as Sealing Designation. This is due to her family's unique Sorcery Trait, Keepers of Alexandria, which allows those who possess the trait to act as conduits to the Library of Alexandria. In short this allows those who possess the trait to perform any known magical ritual regardless of length, though this only provides the holder with the knowledge of the particular spell. If for example, a certain spell requires the death of the caster, this Trait by no means circumvents that requirement, therefore a spell used in this way still requires the costs of the original spell to be payed.
Lexa has a wealth of information available to her, though she more often than not uses Memory Partition, Thought Acceleration, Reinforcement, Elemental Magic, Alchemy, and Hypnosis. Other more specialized spells don't see the light of day until an experiment calls for it or a Weapon to be fabricated.
She possesses great skill in most of the Miracles of High Honor: Time Vamprism, Words of Babel, Creation of Mysic Eyes, Seeds of Knighthood, Runes and Words, Imbuing of Self even the Nobility of the Blue, but to use any of these outside Atlas will grant her a Sealing Designation for fear that the Clock would have to release all those they have already captured. The last one is just so that Barty doesn't try and start a fight again. After successfully gaining one of the contracts, she's given free reign to use her entire arsenal though for some reason she chooses not to.
