  PERSONALITY
  
  To the eyes of her people, Guineverre is the kind and compassionate queen of justice. She carries herself with utmost regality, confidence, and demeanor befitting a queen straight out of fairytales. Her subjects regard her presence as a totem of hope; reminding them that the dawn lies after the night.
  
  But deception breeds adoration. Underneath the majestic persona lies a devious enigma whose heart is fueled by longing and vengeance. Guineverre uses her outstanding intelligence and exceptional charm for her purposes; be it wicked or not. Her past forced her to create a self-imposed moral code and to be wary of everyone she meets. She is also highly perceptive and has a knack for analyzing everything. She always strives for perfection and is highly susceptible to bursts of anger when plans are met poorly.
  
  Nonetheless, the Queen of Hearts is diligent and persistent in everything that she does. She is willing to do whatever it takes to reach her goals, readily disregarding conventional ideals if it would guarantee success.
  
  Post time skip:
  
  Guin's personality significantly improved for the past five years. First off, she learned how to genuinely sympathize with others. She has developed care for those whom she considers her friends and loyal subjects. Guin now understands the importance of companionship, although this by no means implies that she's now beyond her manipulative and devious nature. She's still very much eager about accomplishing her goals. Her anger issue has also been somewhat fixed.
  
  BACKSTORY
  
  Of Lions and Phoenix
  
  Born to the prestigious Blanca family in the Kingdom of Hearts, Guineverre had a perfect life. She, alongside her older brother, lived with silver spoons in their mouths. Being raised in an environment where everything she needed and wanted were at her disposal blinded her from realizing the truth behind their wealth. Her father, who was a corrupt nobleman involved with the kingdom's politics, extorted their riches from the government. Nonetheless, he loved his family, and so did Guin. She held them above all and loved them dearly. She was particularly close to her mother who loved parading her at high-ends social parties. It was through one of them that she met Leolin III, the son of the former Ace of Hearts. Despite her meek nature and his outgoing personality, the two of them immediately clicked; forming a friendship bound to be tainted by a tragedy.
  
  The Oath of Vengeance
  
  She was merely twelve when it happened. Red filled her vision as she watched eminent flames engulf her home from afar. Despite the tears obstructing her sight, she still managed to catch the unmistakable figure of the ace, ridding the girl of her entire family. Wrath welled in her chest and she vowed upon the ashes of her home that she'd be the one to put an end to his life.
  
  The Whispers in the Dark
  
  The news regarding the tragedy spread like wildfire. Everyone was convinced that the fire took the lives of the entire family. Unbeknownst to them, the sole survivor managed to endure in one of the darkest and poverty-stricken streets of the kingdom. Completely alone with nowhere to go, Guin spent months wandering around as a pauper, getting by through scraps and petty crimes. However, it was in the dark slums where she first heard about it. Necromancy- the fabled magic strong enough to bring lives back. Of course, she was merely a child; but the idea of being reunited with her family got stuck in her head.
  
  A Fateful Reunion
  
  It was during a rainy afternoon when she wandered back to the place where her home once stood. Guineverre neither expected that she'd see her friend, Leolin III, there nor that he'd be able to recognize her in her impoverished state. What surprised her most, however, was when he offered her a place to stay. The boy snuck her into one of his family's vacation houses and gave her bags of coins, but not before she made him promise that he'd never tell a soul about her.
  
  Rising from Ashes
  
  Leo helped her get back to her feet. She continued her studies when she turned thirteen. It was also then when her magic began to show, landing her at rank six. It hugely motivated her to train herself and to explore her magic. It was also at this stage when she first acted on her curiosity upon the dark arts. She secretly began to gather what little information available about it in the kingdom. Soon enough, she began applying her knowledge onto recently deceased animals. Progress was beyond slow; however, she persisted. She continued studying Dysidia and its art in the utmost privacy; attempting to perfect and develop her spells as much as she could.
  
  The Flames of Jealousy
  
  Guineverre was sixteen when Leolin came up to her, telling her that his father was the one responsible for the death of her family. She wanted to both cry and laugh at him at that moment. He gave her the deed to his family's vacation house and decided that they should train together to defeat his father. While the Kingdom grew to love both Guin and Leo (a prerequisite of the Aceship trial) thanks to their many great deeds, the latter grew immensely stronger until she found herself unable to win against him during their spars. It frustrated her to no end. Eventually, her frustration grew into envy, and her envy blossomed into spite.
  
  The Broken Promise
  
  Despite her many efforts, Leolin bested her during their final match. It was he who ended up continuing with the Aceship trial to fight against the former Ace. She watched by the sidelines as he delivered the final blow to his father. Her only friend; depriving her of the chance to fulfill her oath. The girl bitterly congratulated the new ace with a tight embrace while he laid unconscious after the fight. She disappeared without a word for a few years. During this period, Guin spent her time traveling around the Suits with one thing in her mind: to grow stronger.
  
  All Hail the Queen
  
  Guineverre returned when the former queen of Hearts fell to her demise. She contested for the throne and won the crown. She was ruling alongside Axton and Twig, with Leolin III as their ace, for more than a year when the All Hands on Deck has been called. She was present during both the said assemblage and the infamous Royal Flush attack- which devastated Atria and shed them of Axton. It was also then when she had Jake Parkinson, the Joker leader, retrieved from the Diamond's prison to form a secret alliance with the group.
  
  The Valencia War
  
  She fought alongside the Coalition during the Argossian war. After the Suits' victory, Guin was approached by the William from several futures and asked to revive the fallen Arimand. After striking a deal with the ace, the necromancer successfully brought the king back to life. This event later led her to finding out the existence of different gods and the plane of the dead. Guin's resolve to bring her family back strengthened.
  
  The Five Year Timeskip
  
  This was probably the busiest period of her entire life. Between bringing her kingdom back from shambles to managing an international terrorist group, Guin had no time to chill. Even so, she continues to work on her secret craft. (I'm going to leave this very vague so you will read my hundreds of collabs hmpf.)

  MAGICKS
  
  DRAIN - It is the ability to absorb mana from a target and convert it into dysidia for the caster's usage. The strength of Guin's Drain depends on her control and proximity. She has three types of drain:
  
  • Area Drain - Guin absorbs mana from a 100ft circular area, her being its midpoint. (Steals 5% of mana used on original cast per second from all targets)
  • Mass Drain - A larger Area Drain, up to 500ft. (Steals 1% of mana used on original cast per second from all targets)
  • Direct Drain - The strongest of the all types; however, it requires physical contact with the target/s. (Steals 10% of mana used on original cast per second)
  
  PSYCHIC CONSTRUCTION - Guineverre can manipulate her mana to construct shields, barriers, bolts, weapons, and objects. All of her constructs typically have a bluish, ethereal appearance, although she can modify its color, weight, and density. Additionally, its size and mana usage are directly proportional to each other. The largest possible size of her constructs can go up to a couple city districts.
  
  • Reflect - Her psychic constructs can throwback spells if she continuously feeds it with mana. The reflected spells will burn the same amount of mana from her as the original caster used.
  
  BLINK - Guineverre teleports to a short but visible distance.
  
  SYNCHRONIZE - Guineverre links herself to her target(s). They will share the same condition for as long as the spell remains active. It consumes either mana or dysidia.
  
  • Partial Synchronization - Guineverre and the linked target(s) will be sharing the same status such as buffs and debuffs.
  • Full Synchronization - Whatever happens to Guin will also happen to the target(s) and vice-versa.
  
  NECROMANCY - The Queen has spent more than half of her life studying the dark art in absolute secrecy. Despite having little to no resources, she still managed to get somewhere.
  
  • Raise Thralls - Guin can raise thralls by infusing dysidia into corpses. She can raise up to twenty thralls at the moment and each of them have to be within her 10m radius. Furthermore, she has to actively puppet them around because they have no consciousness.
  • Raise Deathless - Improved thralls. Please proceed to the lore for more information.
  REVIVAL MAGIC - Through studying Two's peculiar magic, she was able to learn how to revive someone who died within a minute. The revival spell can pull the soul back into its body, bringing the person back to life. While an astounding feat, it comes with its own share of drawbacks and limitations. Guin's spell won't heal the body upon reclaiming the soul, therefore, she can't revive anyone whose body is critically injured (for example, a headless body). Furthermore, if the soul has been successfully reclaimed, a healer should be around to keep the body alive. Secondly, nearly all her mana reserves would be used, rendering her unconscious or immobile after using the spell.
  
  DEATH PENALTY - A fusion spell that can only be cast with the help of Leolin Hravart III, Ace of Hearts. Combining his pyromancy and her dysidia magic, they can spew an eerie black fire that corrupts the soul and causes rapid decay to anything it touches. The target’s draining mana simply adds fuel, putting powerful casters at greater risk.
  
  EQUIPMENTS:
  
  Guineverre's Super Secret Book - The book contains all of Guineverre’s necromantic logs and magicks. It also serves as her diary, so yes this may or may not contain all her personal troubles from childhood years to now. It can be stored and summoned from a pocket dimension. It comes with a pen!
  
  Cassius' Tracking Card - A card handed to her by the new King of Hearts, Cassius Bellarmont. It gives him information regarding her mood and whereabouts as long as she keeps it with her. It can be toggled on and off in respect of her privacy.
  
  Samael's Enchanted Pocket Mirror - A compact mirror handed to her by Samael Nicks. It has three primary uses: storage, transportation, and communication. The mirror has been enchanted by Sam to act as a gateway to her office in the Heart's palace. The man can also be contacted and summoned through the mirror.
  
  Perceptor - It is an expensive, portable, magical-laboratory device that allows her to perceive magic and to observe its process. Among her many laboratory devices and equipment, the Perceptor is the one which she always keeps with her. It has the appearance of a pair of steampunk goggles.
  
  Dawnbringer - A modified handgun produced and granted to her by the Jokers. It has rapid-fire magic missile enchantment that focuses her mana to a point and fires it off with a force. It has also been enchanted to weight less than it otherwise does.
  
  Doombreaker - Another modified handgun produced and granted to her by the Jokers. Its chambers have gravity enchantment- which turns each bullet weightless. The gun loads actual bullets. It has also been enchanted to weight less than it otherwise does.
  
  The Queen's Bastion - A blessed light armor coated in deep red which enhances her physical strength (BECAUSE FUCK YOU 200 PHYS BULLIES!)
  
  True Queen's Garments - A dark costume she'd wear during Joker related businesses. The clothing was enchanted to mask her mana signature while the mask modifies her voice and gives it a synthetic edge. It is also built with a blessed enchantment which improves her phys (Same reason as above)
  
  Victoria's Pendant - An amulet enchanted with illusion magic. It changes the color of her hair and eyes. They become brown and hazel respectively. Additionally, her voice is also modified to a lower pitch.
  
  Mia - That one talking sword. For more information about her, please head to Coyote's CS for Lloyd and scroll down.
  
  SKILLS
  
  1. Politicking, diplomacy, statecraft - Hailing from a long line, a-touch-extinct clan of ambassadors, Guin was groomed for politics. She underwent the complete Queen education, and she has been in title for nine years in total.
  2. Social Competence - Guin has been taught to always observe the proper etiquette and how to construct the right demeanor when in front of people. She's capable of changing her outwardly attitude to match her audience, making her an excellent manipulator.
  3. Marksmanship - Ever since she allied herself with the Jokers eight years ago, Guin began using small firearms such as pistols. She took lessons from the rebels on how to aim and shoot properly. As of the moment, she can effectively use dual pistols, but is incapable of using heavy firearms due to obvious reasons.
  4. Cooking and Baking - Orphaned at a young age, Guin learned how to feed herself with excellent meals.
• 
  Leolin Hravart III - The Ace of Hearts is the Queen's closest and childhood friend. She used to hold vendetta against him because of what his father did to her clan and how he 'robbed' her of the chance to kill the former Ace. Guin learned how to let go of her ill-feelings towards him throughout the years, especially when she understood how much Leolin cared for her. She now sees him as family.
  
  Zephyr Terwilliger - Admittedly, the Queen used to view the Jack as someone utterly dumb and weak. However, he slowly grew on her after they both started working with the Jokers. She taught him how to cast dysidia spells despite being a healer. Now that Twig is the new leader of the Jokers, Guin stays by his side to give him guidance. After their fateful meeting with Leolin, Guin now also sees Twig as family.
  
  Samael Nicks - Many years ago, while Guin was still roaming around the four kingdoms and a little shortly before she came the queen of Hearts, she caught winds of a rumored necromancer kidnapping people for his study. Long story short, the man was simply a regular slaver, and she ended up saving Samael before disappearing. He found her roughly eight years ago and devoted himself to her. Guin rewards him with affection for his outstanding loyalty and remarkable performance, albeit privately.
  
  Cassius Bellarmont - He used to be the captain of the Queensguard, and he vowed to protect her with his life. Guin found his magic interesting and approached him because of it. Things began to escalate when she ended up tutoring him how to imbue dysidia into his cards. Long story short, he fell in love with her, and Guin is fully aware of it. She used to extort his feelings by manipulating him into doing her bidding. Funnily enough, throughout the years, Guin began genuinely caring for Cassius. Now that he's King, Guin works alongside him in molding the kingdom according to the Joker vision.
  
  Declan Sarmiento - Declan was the one who taught Guin how to survive the streets when she was thirteen. They got separated after a few months, and Guin was convinced they'll never see each other again. One day, she caught him stealing breads in one of her coastal towns. Eager to fulfill his promise, Declan started following her around, forcing Guin to assign him as her personal telepath. Declan and her also work together as members of the Jokers. He's one of the few people she trusts.
  
  William Code - Guin barely interacted with William until after the battle in Valencia. A future version of him sought her out to revive the fallen Arimand, which she reacted incredulously to. This led to a promise, one which completely changed Guin's perspective on William. A year after the war, Guin sought him out at the Crystal Marking in the Diamonds. It was there when a secret and a second promise blossomed between the two of them. Guin holds William in high regards.
  
  Arimand Dornwell - Guin secretly disliked Arimand when he was leading the Coalition. However, a sudden twist of fate led her into helping and cooperating with the king. She was the one who brought him back to life five years ago, although nobody knew about this except a few.
  
  Amelia Chevrolet - Mia became Guin's mentor in necromancy. She respects the first Queen of Spades although Guin isn't beyond turning her back on her if the need arises.
  
  Vierdante Tollamber - Guin had her sought out when she learned of Vier's family background. As a descendant of spirit mages, Vier was essential for her necromantic studies. As payment, Guin granted her a land in one of her towns. They have a good professional relationship.
  
  Alaric Westguard - The Queen is aware of the man's contributions in the previous battles, and his heroic nature in general. She supported Cassius' decision to reward Alaric. She admires the veteran's courage and selflessness, although admittedly saw it foolish at first.
  
  Kaiden Alderidge - Guin and Kaiden both share fondness for orphans. They first met during the Argossian war and stumbled upon each other once again in one of the former's owned orphanages. After bonding, Guin began to respect Kaiden, and sees great potential in him. She considers him as one of her most useful assets.
  
  Adelleid Frey - Guin, in her civilian disguise, helped Frey reunite with his younger brother. Through the experience, Guin decided that Frey should become the Jack of Clubs for the Jokers. She admires his family-oriented nature.
  
  Jake Parkinson - Guin was the one who got Jake out of the Diamond's prison. She formed an alliance with him between the Hearts and the Jokers. Personally, Guin never really liked the man. She found him too snarky. His silver lining was his capability to get a job done. She didn't really mind his death, at the very least she found it a shame.
  
  Cilantro - Guin almost killed Cilantro when she learned of his mistake. After being convinced to spare the boy, Guin made Cilantro promise her that he'd be a strong and wise man. She has yet to see his improvements.
  
  Xixix Valentines - Guin honestly just wants to strangle him to death.
  
  And a fuckton of others!

» PERSONALITY;

Frey, most of the time, always wears a smile on his face. He shows others a friendly personality, someone that they can trust, they can talk to, polite, and slightly flirty. While this is all also really a part of Frey's real personality it depends on who he is interacting with if it is genuine. Romance doesn't interest him as much as toppling the caste system of Suits. He's willing to do anything just for that to happen. That's why he joined Jokers. In all honesty, Frey has a deep hatred for the nobles but he doesn't group them all as a villain in his story. He knows that there are those who treat low ranks well, treats them as humans and he appreciates that.

He's pretty observant, he tends to analyze the situation first and is never one to use violence to quickly. The loss of his family has left him with a numb feeling, the only thing that keeps him going is the fact that he doesn't want others to go through what he has. The slave trading, the disdain of being a low rank, he hates it all. All he wanted was to come back home to his mother and younger siblings but fate likes to throw him to the side of the cliffs. He wants to know if they're okay, if they are alive after everything that has happened, he wants to see them and take care of them but he's also ashamed of the person he has become.

He values family a lot. He dreamed of becoming someone like his mother, a loving parent.

» BIOGRAPHY;

Frey loves his family, even if it is a family of slaves. A lot. His mother was kind but she always worked at night, going to houses of the people whose eyes she had caught with her beauty. When his mother was away, he was the one taking care of his four younger siblings as he was the eldest. He adores them all, even as a young kid he tried his best to work hard to help his mother. He and his twin sisters have met their father, Allen. A noble who taught them blood magic in secrecy whenever he visits, they were his illegitimate children but he cared for them all the same as his others. By his teenage years, their father died.

Frey and his sisters weren't allowed to attend his funeral. They were a secret, after all, born from nights of sin. The young child was seen using his magic as it made him felt closer to his father, he was seen with a potential to be great and so a noble from Spades bought him, forcefully adopting him into their family. The Jhoust. They changed his name to Wylfred, made him practice his blood magic while he was pitted against other adoptive children like him like a competition.

But even Frey has his limits. He purposefully slacked in his training, not wanting to be a pawn to the Jhoust family’s game. The progress of his magic ability slowed down, leaving him as the only low rank. He was discarded as he was deemed useless. He searched for his mother but she has passed away from the sadness of her children being taken away, his siblings bought by other families scattered throughout the Suits.

One day, he was surprised to find a note in his pocket to meet up. Frey isn’t afraid of doing anything to achieve the Joker's goal. He is willing to do risky jobs if it meant them trusting him more, any job that will contribute to becoming a step closer to the eradication of the System. Upon entering the Jokers he learned Illusion Magic. He stayed in the Spade Kingdom, using the name Ansel Walker and posed as a civilian while steering clear of the Jhousts and doing his work as part of the Joker. Only the people in that organization knows his real name.

After the events of the stealing of the Deep Piercer, Frey then lived at the Joker base. Not wanting to risk getting caught. There he stayed and further developed his abilities. After years of working for the Jokers, Frey was tasked with taking the Royal seat of Jack in the Club Kingdom. He agreed, and five years since he moved to Hearts he challenged Reginald Geary for the position of Jack, giving the name that his family gave him Adelleid Frey. He almost doubted himself, giving a show of false confidence but he won in the end. He even got a pet!


» SKILLS & ABILITIES;

Magic/Phys - Average
750/400 - 1150

Skill:

• Acrobatics - Frey has always been naturally flexible and has a great sense of balance, as a kid, he'd always demonstrate such flexibility to entertain his younger siblings. Upon entering the Jokers, he has developed this skill to use during operations in case it comes in handy.
• Hyperthymesia - Frey has an amazing capacity to recall events in his life in great detail, while it is great for information gathering it is also quite a curse to have as his head is filled with useless information such as the texture of the clothes people wear or the way people sneeze.
• Melee Combat - Frey is quite handy with fighting with his bare hands, and with blades.
• Marksmanship - While not the sharpest eye in town, Frey has since he practiced his shooting, he gets a four of five shots right. He prefers to use the shotgun, as you don’t really need to aim it that well, but he's been leaning toward his new pistol now.
• Acting - For one, as a child, he has always been interested in the art of acting, and second, Frey isn't someone that likes to display his true feelings to others, hence acting. He acts as need be from the situation. Does he have to pretend that he is a noble? So be it. Need someone to act in a stage? He's your guy.

Abilities:

• Blood Magic - With Blood Magic, he is able to control blood, amplify his strength with this magic as well as form shapes with the use of his own blood or others. Frey is able to make use of it in different ways: Blood Enhance, with the ability to manipulate blood, Frey can use it so increase his blood flow and gain strength, speed, stamina, and regeneration; Blood Constructs, Frey can turn blood into tools, objects, weapons, and other items, and/or create puppet-like constructs, ones that need to be in his sight to control and not too far from him. He can use it for almost any situation, creating anything he needs, a sword, whip gauntlet, golems, shields, appendage, and more; Blood Bullet, Frey can create/generate from exposed blood and fire bullets of blood faster than a gun would; Blood Healing, Frey is able to fully heal physical ailments such as wounds of any fatality, limb reattachment, and bones, but this all depends if he has enough blood to use or else Frey himself will die of blood loss.
• Hallucikinesis - Frey has the ability to create, shape, and manipulate illusions, causing those around him to see, hear, feel, smell, and taste things that do not actually exist. The things he can do with these are: Holographic Projection, an ability that lets him trick the sight of people with three-dimensional images and have no effect to the other senses or physical presence; After Image, Frey can create clones of himself of his previous actions to confuse his opponent/s; Glamour, can alter their appearance by the use of illusions, appearing as anything they want, includes a change of voice, but knocking him unconscious will render the magic nullified; Illusion Creation, can create illusions that affect one, multiple or all of the senses or cast area-effect illusions that alter the appearance of their environment, either to hide things from view or add them. This also includes invisibility and he can also freely destroy these illusions.

» GEAR;

• Dual Short Swords (Enchanted) - swords that are imbued with magic that makes it sharper and is of help to collect blood from the flesh that is sliced. This is made to help Frey limit the use of his own blood, to keep him from becoming anemic, and to use for close quarter combat when he is all out of bullets.
• Ithaca 37 (or Model 37) - from the Agrossians, is a pump-action shotgun that utilizes a novel combination ejection/loading port on the bottom of the gun which leaves the sides closed to the elements. Since shotshells load and eject from the bottom, operation of the gun is equally convenient for both right- and left-handed shooters. This makes the gun popular with left-handed shooters.
• M1917 Revolver - were six-shot, .45 ACP, large frame revolvers. They used moon-clips to hold the rimless cartridges in position and to aid in extraction. Always has another round of bullets with him.
• Walther P38 - a 9 mm semi-automatic pistol with 8 rounds in total.
• Hand Grenades - handy when in need to cover a large area when fighting. He always has at least three hidden.
• M18 Colored Smoke Grenade - grenade used as a ground-to-ground or ground-to-air signaling device, a target or landing zone marking device, or a screening device for unit maneuvering.
• Sanguis's Garb - Frey's Joker persona that he uses during missions.
• Blood Armor - Frey's blessed light armor with the color of red and black which raises his Phys to 750.
• Samael's Mirror - a mirror from Samael, it acts as a storage and a teleporter. He has to call for Samael to teleport.
• Red - pet wolf of the former Jack of Club. Before the fight, Frey jokingly mentioned that he and Red could be good friends if given the chance. After the battle, he felt pity for Red. Not only because Reginald did not treat him well, but Frey was also the reason why Ted and Rex were gone, he felt really bad. So he invited him, promised to take care of him. Red is willing to fight for Frey, he feeds him after all.

» RELATIONSHIPS;

Declan - He's known him as a member of the Jokers and is a friend. Frey got his first gun from Declan. He likes the guy, the way that he is dedicated in his study for Argossian tech.

Cass - They met during the prepping of stealing the Spear. Frey always wondered why a Queensguard would be part of the Jokers but he doesn't ask. A nice man, so he doesn't really mind that much apart from being generally curious.

Zephyr Terwilliger - Current leader of the Jokers, he respects him as the White Plague, being the leader of their group. Knowing that he is actually the Jack of Hearts doesn't change his perception of him but it makes him curious if, like Frey, he also had a low upbringing or he was born a noble and pity those of the low rank.

Victoria - a woman that he met while looking for his siblings. She's charming, cunning, and pretty funny. If given the chance he'd love to get to know her better. He has an inkling that she and True Queen is the same person.

Xixix Valentine - Frey sees X as a... well, he is vastly different from others in almost every aspect. He finds the King of Clubs to be amusing with his many strange antics but at the same time he wonders if he is of sound mind. Nevertheless, Frey goes along with his shenanigans.

Iris Bastille - He hasn't met her but he found out that she is X's assistant and has great admiration for her because she stuck with him for a long time.

Frey had built two villages and named it Sierra and Makiling
He has 20g currently

Many became nomadic, as a result, others decided to stay down south and await a person of great strength to show them the path. Most of their history, as a result, has been meddled with due to the varying amounts of leaders and cultures meshed with their own. Time kept progressing, however, and the Diwatas assimilated themselves within the new rulers of the land they inhabited; the Club Kingdom. Although the population was small, they did contribute more than a lot to the Club Kingdom and were well-respected for a time. The Diwatas were skilled in the arts of breathing, although the martial arts were still in its infancy, they were spearheaded by the Diwata. It's speculated that the pre-club Diwatas were the progenitors of the breathing martial arts. As civil wars passed and the dust settled, Diwatas were less needed within the army and were put on reserve until further notice, this caused many to see the military as having no need for them. The now medium-sized population of Diwatas traveled out of Club Kingdom and established a small wandering tribe within the borders of the Club Kingdom, moving from city to city, and time once again passed. Many of the traveling Diwata settled down when passing through cities, those who didn't eventually ended up doing so as their tribe slowly decreased in people. Those who settled were very off the radar, living on low-income farms as farm-hands. Generations passed and their way of living really hadn't changed. The Diwatas entered an age of obscurity, their culture had been revamped and recreated so many times it had no consistent themes and the divided Diwatas had no similar definition or explanation to their culture. Some Diwatas still practiced the breathing martial arts and passed it down the generations, others did not.

• 
  Personality:
  Ebel is a go-getter and it shows. He has desires and he’s willing to do anything to get them. Ebel learned a lot from his father now long gone, becoming a more social person because he saw the power his father’s sociability got him. Ebel aspires to be like him but because of the changing times, his aspirations aren’t quite as viable and he understands that. Ebel understands when a situation won’t go in his favor and he’s quit to give up when it appears the deck is stacked against him. Though he has learned to give the situation some more time, he still has little patience to wait for a long plan to work out.
  
  One thing Ebel doesn’t give up is his goals, the things that have motivated him the most. Because of those goals, he works for his late father’s goals and strives to achieve them. No matter the hardship, no matter the setback, what his late father told him is what carries him to go forward. Ebel isn't a very social person and was born a warrior at that, meaning most engagements, hostile or otherwise, end with a fight or a declaration of one. He's quick to resort to violence to achieve his goals, being a firm believer in the whole 'end justifies the means'. Ebel doesn't mind how he gets there, as long as he's there, he's okay with what he's done.
  
  Biography:
  Born from a long line of people such as himself, he's a direct descendant of an old king/leader from an era now taught in classes of history. The king in question was a man named Belial Athame, his last name being the name of the tribe and small nation he led. When Ebel was a child, his father had told him to aspire to be just like Belial in terms of power and land. Ebel took these words to heart and still remembers them to this day. Raised under the idea that until the family of Ebel regains the lost land and power once owned by Belial, they will have no last name and no banner to follow. Ebel grew to find this idea to be restrictive but one that he could follow, one that he understood.
  
  As years passed, his father grew ill and soon passed away before he could give final words. When Ebel's father passed away, Ebel gathered what little possessions he had and went off to fulfill the words he had been so graciously told long ago. To retake the land and power once owned and controlled by Belial Athame, and to retake the last name lost to them all that time ago. Journeying to a small hovel built into a decently sized mountain told to him by his father as the only other place of refuge besides his own home, Ebel traveled without rest to arrive there. Greeted by a middle-aged man wearing tattered robes over what appeared to be tight-fitting clothing, Ebel gave the man his concerns and was welcomed into the small hovel. The hovel had an assortment of humanoid-shaped hay-made dummies. Ebel was told to stand in the middle of the room and the man before him stood parallel to him. Ebel was told by the man to throw a fist and he did as the man commanded and after only a second, found himself in immense pain and on the floor.
  
  Ebel was told almost immediately the process of how the man, now known to Ebel as Keli, of how he took down Ebel in just one throw. After recovering, Ebel was quick to pledge his allegiance to Keli to learn the techniques the man had. For years Ebel trained but as his training neared its eventual end, he had to further dodge the draft as the upcoming war reared it's head. Dodging it grew harder and harder but soon the King of Clubs ordered that Ebel and Keli be left to train before they are officially drafted, this left Ebel to speed through the remainder of his training as he prepared to scour and then leave the nation of Clubs in search of an artifact and a god to be his sponsor. These were difficult enough and as the war officially started, Ebel left the nation to search for ancient scriptures. He's been traveling for three years, with the war still in it's prime, and soon, he'll probably be found and drafted, but he has hope he can find a patron god in the remaining time he has.
  
  ---
  
  Ebel began to become an entrepreneur, he knew the continent that had just been ravaged through the war was in need of supplies and items needed to rebuild. Ebel, a native to a marsh, where many big trees grow and often disappear, decided to monopolize the region and begin a lumber company with 20 other people. Around this time he also developed a spell which he was very proud of once he finished it.
  
  At the start of the second year of his lumber company, he approached by a man donned in light robings and various fabrics. Ebel thought the man to a fabric seller, they needed none so he was quickly pushed to leave. The man then introduced himself as a practitioner of Hawk Breath, Ebel responded with 'What the fuck is that'. He knew of his own breath but he never imagined there'd be different ones. The practitioner offered to teach Ebel his ways and Ebel agreed. For three years, he learned the secrets and techniques of Wind Breath.
  
  Upon the start of the 5th year since the start of his lumber company, he decided that he would need to be a little bit more buff to sustain his new breath and as such, did push-ups for a year. Around this time as well, he proposed an organization idea to his King and he was allowed to begin it and so, by the end of this year, he'll have acquired a retinue of men trained and hired to do one thing: prevent terrorism and combat it. They would be known as RATAR.
  
• 
  AbilitiesEye of Belial
  Ebel has a unique ability inherent to his direct bloodline. This is a status link-infinity area-of-effect that causes people around him to unwillingly share up to 50 physical ability depending on their magical resistance.
  Sub-Spell
  Belial's Target
  Ebel is capable of focusing Eye of Belial onto a single target, causing them to unwillingly share 50% of their physical ability, this also depends on magical resistance.
  Belial's Link
  Ebel is capable of focusing the Eye of Belial and linking himself with multiple targets, causing them to share up to 50% of their physical and magical ability. This is a willing share as he cannot just apply this to anyone; he has to be given direct permission to do it and anybody involved, of their own free will, are able to dispel the effect whenever they wish. There is no distance restraint on this spell.
  
  Attractive Touch
  By saying “Set” and placing his hand on any object, Ebel is able to place a runic symbol on the object. Any object with the runic symbol on it can be teleported instantaneously to Ebel’s right hand using a certain word: "Summon". He’s limited to 10 runes and once an object with a rune is summoned, the rune is automatically removed.
  
  Stream Breath
  A mainly defensive breath using counters and deflections to reroute attack or counter one. Ebel is more than skilled in this breathing technique, having for an undetermined amount of years, been training to master it. Ebel is able to effectively reroute attacks with and without weaponry. Ebel has been training in Stream Breath for whole years.
  
  Spoiler: Sub-Spells

  Removing Spirit
  Ebel trained for a year to gain this unique technique which allows him, with some preparation, to push a soul out of somebody. This is, however, in the form of a counter skill. Removing Spirit is divided into two different stances that both require Ebel to counter, and strike with a ball of condensed Chi.
  1st Stance: Temporary Removal
  By countering and striking the chest region with a condensed ball of Chi; Ebel is capable of temporarily expelling the soul of a person. This however only lasts for as long as Ebel was able to condense the ball of Chi, meaning he could have as little as a second of time to defeat his opponent. The expelled soul will return after the amount of time, granted the body is not dead.
  2nd Stance: Permanent Removal
  This stance takes can take upwards of a minute to charge and is not guaranteed to permanently remove the soul of his opponent. The stance requires charging the condensed ball of Chi before countering and striking, causing Ebel to have to be particularly careful with how approaches his opponent and how he uses his next move. Technically, a soul expelled or removed by this technique can still return to the body if it's not dead.
  
  Dance of Four Gods
  When left alone to his devices, Ebel was told by Keli to develop a skill that would surprise even him. Ebel for a full year, traveled to a few shrines and statues, sometimes praying, and then developed a martial arts move based on the experience that had given him. Ebel ended up only finding an ancient tome on the warrior pantheon and finding a statue to Raen, the Wayward God of Direction, whom he was comfortable developing a move around. While he originally developed 5 techniques, the last two had such a similarity, they were combined into what it is now. This unique skill partially uses Joining Spirit within its techniques. The Dance of Four Gods is a set of attacks patterned to interrupt an opponent's forced offense; offset their balance; and finally, break their defense. However, Ebel only partially designed it for this. The Dance of Four God's true goal is to create an unnatural flow of air and wind around Ebel's body and direct it to create an unblockable blast of air.
  1st Stance: Denri's Stab
  The first stance of the Dance of Four Gods. A technique that uses Joining Spirit to match the Chi and momentarily lead the attacker into a position to be countered, using a powerful punch to then interrupt the incoming attack. This also creates a minor shockwave that can sometimes knock back surrounding things/people. In the last duel he ever faced against Keli, Ebel minorly adapted Denri's Stab into an explosive uppercut. By ditching Joining Force and instead of interrupting an attack, Ebel carefully moves his feet and arm to create a small upward current before punching upwards and sending the current upwards and outwards. The current is, however, only above the waist and has not been fully developed beyond its base form. This derivation is named Denri's Upward Stab.
  2nd Stance: Jerin's Heavy Weight
  The second stance to the Dance of Four Gods. To offset the balance of an opponent, Ebel carefully moves to create a small moving current around one of his feet, then by kicking the ground, he sends a powerful shockwave through it. This still applies if Ebel instead stomps on the opponent's foot or leg, the shockwave will still travel from his foot upward.
  3rd Stance: Kinshar's Dance
  The third stance to Dance of Four Gods. It's a sequence of strong, sets of counters and attacks meant to penetrate an opponent's defense and attack. Ebel uses Joining Spirit in this technique to illicit defensive and offensive responses from his opponent. This sequence is often picked carefully because of how it further sets up the airflow required for the next stance to Dance of Four Gods. Any interruption to his balance or own attacks has the chance to ruin the airflow for the 4th Stance.
  4th Stance: Raen & Vern's Dragon Storm
  The final stance to Dance of Four Gods. Using the airflow setup from before, Ebel can take control of the flow and direct it towards their opponent in a powerful blast of air. This attack is strong enough to leave a street destroyed and destroy a set of houses like a tsunami hit them. After the first three stances, air should be flowing and moving around the two calves, around both of the thighs, and around the elbow of the arm that used Denri's Stab. The only place without air should be the other arm and thus, air diffuses from the highly concentrated areas to the arm’s low concentrated area. By putting his hand into a paw position, Ebel is able to force the diffused air in a controlled direction. This force is so strong, however, that the force puts ridiculous amounts of strain on the arm and the force of the wind is liable to cutting and/or bruising the arm.
  
  Wind Breath
  A chaotic but graceful, all-encompassing martial arts style that switches from technique to technique. This style allows Ebel to switch from defense to offense with ease, this form of switching can often throw opponents off and incite hesitation. Techniques use as little movement as possible; centering them around creating openings and slipping through defenses. Wind Breath is best described as a 'seamless execution of techniques with perfect timing and grace'.
  
  EquipmentTorn Ceremonial Robes
  Robes of a forgotten era damaged beyond repair and recognition by the harsh winds of time. Ebel holds onto them as a keepsake from his late father.
  
  Pants
  Just very tight pants that also have shoes otherwise known as heels where the feet are inserted.
  
  Halberd of Athame
  While Ebel does physically have this item, it's still a piece of his gear. This halberd was an heirloom passed down from his grandfather to his father, then to Ebel. The halberd is made of a suspicious material that, while under Ebel's care, has yet to even have a chip in it. While the material isn't known to slice through anything like butter, it's cut some armor into nothing but shreds after a few swings of it.

  Art de Glace: Ebel's good friend and co-founder of RATAR. He knows the man to be a practitioner of another breath, though Art is less than enthusiastic to show it off to him. Ebel trusts Art to be the good man he sees him as, and lead the world to a brighter and safer future.
  
  Caroline Earnest: The sister of one of the members of his small retinue, she's a warrior through and through even if she doesn't have the physical capability for it.

  Title(s): Elias Hildryn (Alias; by Ebel and RATAR)
  
  Age: 24
  
  Gender: Male
  
  Race: Human
  
  Rank: 10
  
  Sub stats: 350/650
  
  Affiliation: Clubs, Assassin’s Guild
  
  Guild Rank: Blade
  
  Appearance:
  Art has a lean build with a peach skin tone. He has brown scruffy hair. Two streaks of dark paint run down his face that resembles tear streaks. He dons a black robe that is held up by small red belts. He wears a black pilgrim hat tied around to head. He also has various bandages wrapped around his arms and a pair of black shoes. Art wears a black blindfold that covers his eyes and has a symbol embedded in it.
  
  As Elias Hildryn, he ditches his blindfold and covers the streaks of paint on his face. He wears fewer robes and more formal clothing as he acts not as the founder and leader of RATAR but a representative of it. He deals with formal matters and keeps a calm and collected composure. He keeps his grimoire hooked on his belt, holding any weaponry or items he would need for the day. His hair is tidier and his eyes lack the lifelessness they would have when wearing his blindfold.
  
• 
  Personality:
  Art gives the impression that his general demeanor is cheerful, eccentric, and sarcastic. Despite the surface impression, however, he is generally unassuming and is fairly self-deprecating. He has also confessed to being envious of other people. Nevertheless, he accepts these qualities to be repellent to other people, thus he has gained a love for humor and smiling, and acts in a spontaneous manner. He likely believes he can not maintain friendships otherwise. Art is very careful with his application of jokes for he believes that they must be improvised, or else they are just common lies, moreover he fully understands how they can cause misunderstandings. Art’s mood is generally well kept, except when he feels his time has been wasted; then he becomes somewhat depressed and irascible. Contrary to his personality, he distances himself when people start getting too close, as he is obsessed with not becoming obsessed with anything.
  
  When Art looks at a contract, he spends a good amount of time analyzing it and seeing how achievable it is. Sadistic in nature, Art spends a lot of his time playing with his targets and any person who is unfortunate enough to encounter him while on the hunt. But when it comes to death, Art takes no pleasure in robbing life, he sees his playing with victims as a way of prolonging their life, to let them reflect and see where they went wrong. It’s a sick way of killing but Art sees it as a necessary factor. When Art accepts a contract, he will finish it no matter the consequence; no matter the dangers; no matter the effect.
  
  Biography:
  Born to a family of nobility, Art was held to high standards and throughout his childhood, he despised his family greatly. Thrown into an academy to train nobles to take the throne of their respective kingdom, Art didn’t care much for it but when that was over and done with, Art just kinda knew about how to be a royal and had also learned sound magic, at some point.
  
  One night, however, there was a disturbance in the household, hearing a scuffle in the master bedroom, Art didn’t think much of it but figured something was up and decided to investigate it. Reaching the door, upon opening it, he found his father dead and a shadowy man standing over him. Instincts kicked in, Art didn’t care that his father died, all he prioritized was protecting himself. Even though any attack was ineffective, Art kept going and eventually, the man spoke up. His gravelly voice still gives Art the shivers to this day. The man complimented Art and asked him whether or not he cared if his father was dead. Art, exhausted replied with an honest no, and at that moment, the man took Art under his wing.
  
  On a stern schedule and with the fear of being killed by the man’s comrades, Art was trained to be a successor of sorts to the man when the time came. Learning new magic and skills, Art became a mini assassin. Finally joining the Assassin’s Guild in the middle of his teenage years, Art wasn’t allowed to take contracts until he was 18, which sucked but it just gave him more time to train.
  
  By the time he was 18, he took his first contract, and at that moment, he became an official member of the assassin’s guild.
  
  ---
  
  Art was still annoyed that his main target got away but with the assistance of the Lazarus, he could change that. Art learned the martial form of Serpent-Breath from Lazarus, only taking a remarkable 2 years to finish it. Deciding to advance to three years, he learned a technique that allowed him to focus a point of Chi and push into something, breaking it or something on the inside. Around this time he also studied pressure points and the weaknesses and sensitivities of the human body.
  
  At the end of the 3rd year, deciding to enhance his prowess with his martial form, he did sit-ups for two years. At some point in this 5-year time-span, he met a man named Ebel. Art, knowing he could use as many companions as he could get, inquired the man if he was able to assist him in a matter. Ebel agreed and decided to go one step further, founding RATAR with Art as a co-founder and the King of Clubs as its sponsor.
  
• 
  Abilities
  Sound Travel/Perception
  Art is able to perceive sound, which allows him to travel in distributed frequencies. Although he sometimes requires a spectrum of sound to balance him out, he is still able to use his magic. When Art snaps his fingers, the snap creates a pitch frequency that travels in circular soundwaves in which Art can see and travel through. Therefore, Art can move at the speed of sound by using sound as a medium to transport his body. It should be noted that when Art snaps, he can only travel as far as the sound of his snap can be heard; therefore, every time he gets to the end of the soundwave he must snap again to utilize his ability.
  Sub-Spells
  Sonic Speed fucking Fighting
  Art is also able to produce sonic punches and kicks that also travels at the speed of sound in which it makes him stronger. He is immune to the air friction and the strain it puts on his body through his attacks.
  
  Memory Manipulation
  Art is able to manipulate memories to the fullest extent. Art can create artificial memories, remove memories, observe, and even steal memories. Although Art can steal memories, it depends on how complex the memory is and how efficiently he’s trying to obtain it. This also depends on whether or not its a surface memory or a ‘deep’ memory, or both. The process of creating, removing, and stealing can take upwards of an hour depending on the factors above. Because of this ability, Art has a collection of knowledge stolen from his targets and random people he’s found interesting.
  Sub-Spells
  Memory Invasion
  By linking with an unconscious person, Art is able to transfer part of his subconscious into the person and explore their memories in a dream-like state. Art, in this state, is unable to move his body and is put into an almost catatonic state. Art while exploring people’s memory’s, can interact with them and change, remove, or even steal them. This way of manipulating memories is more effective and efficient compared to normally.
  Memory Constructs
  By using his mind, Art is capable of producing constructs made purely of his memory magic and from his memories themselves. These constructs can change shape at Art’s will.
  Memory Overload
  By focusing on an unpleasant memory of his opponent or really anybody, Art is able to move that memory to the person’s surface level and increase the intensity and emotions the memory causes.
  
  Enhanced Learning
  Art is able to learn things at a faster rate than normal people are able to. It’s never been compared how fast he can learn but he’s beat other students in their academic studies more often than it’s worth noting.
  
  Serpent Breath
  A mainly quick and agile martial form, Serpent-Breath is noted for its sudden movements and disconcerting evasive movements. Art uses it mainly for assassination and is a full master of it despite his only two years.
  Sub-Spells
  Focused Fang
  By focusing his chi into a thin spike. Upon stabbing it into target, the chi at the tip expands into multiple smaller spikes that rend the inside of the target.
  
  Equipment
  The Swamp’s Grimoire
  A small book Art obtained during his travels said to be able to contain anything. It’s said to have limitless space, Art hasn’t nearly had the time to test that out but he’s pretty sure it is limitless with how much he’s stored in there. At any moment, he can open the book and absorb something into its pages or release something from it. The book itself is mostly blank, except with the first three pages which contain poems.
  Art also brings anything he’d need for a contract, so what he keeps on hand varies from time to time.
  
  Dagger of Confounded Nature
  (Special/Uncommon)
  A dagger crafted by Ebel's smiths; it silences the sound made by its wielder and anybody struck by the dagger is immobilized and magically poisoned. The poison isn't strong but it's quick and can cause one to hallucinate and enter an unconscious state if they're unable to resist it. The poison usually passes after a few hours.
  
  Endereal Katana
  (Special/Special)
  Gifted to him by his mentor Lazara, the Endereal Katana silences all sound made by its wielder, is magically sharpened, and is able to phase through objects and people.
  
  Foolish Blindfold
  (Uncommon/Uncommon)
  Made by Ebel's smiths; this blindfold, despite it covering Art's eyes, allows him to still see through it and see through the eyes of his trusted eagle.
  
  Guild Ring
  Given to him by his guild, this ring allows for the invisibility of the wearer.
  
• 
  Lazara Faust: Art views Lazara as his mentor, the man who helped him not only with serpent breath but with the fight he should've won against Marillys. Though, Art knows the risks he's taking with putting his face and sometimes name out there. He knows that the day he is found out, he will either have to be killed by his mentor or kill his mentor. A situation Art refuses to think of but something that always sits in the back of his mind, laying dormant, waiting.
  
  Ebel: Art sees Ebel as his equal and friend. A warrior who would stand by his side and take on the evil that awaits them. As the co-founder of RATAR, Art will often have disagreements about how the organization should be ran but in most cases, the two usually settle on a middle ground concerning decisions.
  
  Caroline Earnest: A beauty in his eyes; Caroline is a rose with thorns and Art understands that. Though he keeps his distance with his romantic interest, there are often moments where he is forced to talk to her. He pities her situation and condition but knows that she'll overcome it and persevere through whatever danger lies ahead of her. Perhaps then he'll be able to confess his love.
  
  Xixix Valentine: X only knows Art by his alias and Art doesn't quite know X that well. He knows he's quite the humourous man and disregards formal greetings and matters such as that. Art respects X but doesn't know what he is capable of yet and thus can't make a good judgment of his ability as a King.
  
  Arimand Argus Dornwell: The King of Diamonds only knows Art by his alias. Art suspects that the King knows of his true name and self, though Art is taking as many precautions to avoid his outing as a member of the Assassin's Guild. Art knows the King to be quite calculating and cold meaning Art only has to be that but better to achieve what he wants.
  
• 
  Other:
  Trained in the art of being an assassin and is able to effectively kill his targets with ease if at least, they aren’t being guarded by powerful nobles and guards.
  Art has finished royal education in law, meaning he is fit to be a queen if he ever decided to try and become one.
  Art is the co-founder of RATAR, the Royal Anti-Terrorism Assault Retinue. They're tasked with combatting and countering terrorists and apprehending them.
  He has a pet eagle that he uses for scouting and spying. It's not magically bound to him but it's been trained well.

• 
  Personality:
  Agnes is a person whose character is difficult to read. She possesses a dislike of humanity that borders on mistrust, which is something that she shares with most of the other people in her group. She is a skilled actress as she is capable of putting on the facade of an innocent, curious, polite, and young girl when she needs to. However, under that mask lies a mad woman, prone to fits of insane laughter and possessing no regard for human life, viewing them as a food source to restore her own body, and thus, a disposable commodity.
  
  There is a twisted justice behind her methods, however, as the people that she targets are would-be. In hindsight, Agnes possesses some degree of innocence that her psychotic behavior has not entirely ruined; she has a soft spot for small animals and other creatures. She once slaughtered four humans not because she needed to replenish her time, but because they were trying to kill a harmless creature.
  
  Biography:
  Born into a vampiric family, Agnes lived a caution-filled life, constantly moving and traveling. She and her family never stayed in one place. However, upon reaching some arbitrary age, Agnes heard a voice so distinct, so clear, it was as if she was hearing someone speak directly into her ear. As time went on, this voice told her do things, kill people specifically. At this point, Agnes had become reliant and dependent on the voice, as it helped her get by and avoid the loneliness her travels gave her.
  
  One night, her dream changed, visions of a woman having the same treatment from the voice Agnes had become so dependent on. Agnes met the woman at an abandoned shrine, there they prayed together and did demon things .
  They now travel together posing as merchants, visiting villages, and doing demon things in them.

  For around 5 years, Agnes spent her time making babies and learning new magic. Despite the many children she has now, one is her most favorite creation out of all of them. The child she birthed herself and from the man she knows as Lazara. She entrusted this child to a group of devoted cultists, she visits every year and intends to take care of her child once they achieve their goal and attain ultimate power. For now, she has her cultists teaching and training her child in all forms of magic and to see how she turned out with the awkward combination of races.
  
• 
  AbilitiesVampire Racial Powers
  Because she is a vampire, Agnes possesses some skills unique to her race. Vampires have an affinity for blood magic. They have a thousand years of lifespan.
  Sub-Spells
  Biting Drugs
  By biting anywhere on a living body, her fangs enter a toxin into their body, causing them to enter a minor euphoric state that dulls the senses and makes the individual more susceptible to suggestive commands from Agnes (if she bit them). Biting an artery of any kind increases the efficiency and duration of the effect.
  Enhanced Regeneration
  Because she is a vampire; enhanced regeneration.
  
  Biomass Manipulation
  Agnes has complete control over the biomass of her body and can freely alter and manipulate it allowing her the ability to grow additional appendages, regenerate wounds at accelerated speeds and even go as far as to completely reconstruct her being. This is fueled by the absorption of biomass (flesh, blood, etc) and prolonged usage requires active assimilation of biomass. This ability allows her to; completely disassemble her body into a mass of malleable "red matter", the red matter being invulnerable to conventional weaponry such as projectiles; to shapeshift into whatever creature she wants as long as she possesses the biomass for it, and regenerate wounds and limbs, remodel her physique and structure. She can only hold 10 people worth of biomass and must refill once expended.
  Sub-Spells
  Split (2016)
  By splitting her own mass(gained and/or original), Agnes is capable of controlling that split part. She can manipulate its own body and control it and command it to a fine degree. By doing this, however, she gives the split part a piece of her mana but this also means her split mass can use some parts of her own magic depending on how much mana is put into it.
  
  Devotion Sacrifice Magic
  By sacrificing another person, Agnes is capable of applying many destructive applications to her magicks. Sacrifices can include; blood, flesh, soul, mind, or all at once. Applications for this do vary but it generally goes into destructive purposes as said before.
  Sub-Spells
  Freeze Area
  By sacrificing, Agnes can freeze an area with an intense chill. The more mana put into the spell, the larger the area affected becomes.
  Fire Whirl
  By sacrificing, Agnes can summon a whirling mass of fire unto an area. The more mana put into the spell, the larger and hotter the whirl becomes. Agnes can control where the whirl travels to, otherwise it moves randomly.
  
  Blood Magic
  Through blood magic, Agnes can crystallize blood, mainly into objects or creatures which can be controlled through her psychic magic, but also simply used to stop it from flowing. With liquid blood, she can ‘grab’ it as soon as eye contact is made or is in proximity. With enough blood supplied, Agnes can heal minor wounds and can go into lost limbs with enough blood to replace the volume missing. Agnes can also curse victims causing constant bleeding, requiring healed or stopped with other measures as it doesn't stop until the source of energy is removed.
  
  Psychic Magic
  By projecting her consciousness, Agnes can put it into blood constructs and flesh beings to control them and get information from their eyes while retaining her own body's information through minimal brainpower left inside. Without projecting herself, information is still gathered but commands must be given. Agnes can also communicate telepathically and can tune into "channels" to listen. Cursing her opponents, Agnes can both cause headaches to people, rendering concentration to a minimum, and can also knock out people with sensory overload as she transmits certain gruesome videos in a bulk package directly to the brain. Finally, she can get simple pictures and emotions through reading a single person's brain through repeat trials on welcoming test subjects.
  
  EquipmentStaff of Belial
  A staff once belonging to a tribal king, it's head resembles a vertical eye with an unknown symbol in the pupil. The utmost end of the head has two sharp blades on the sides of the eye and a pointed bit at the top of the eye.
  
  Halberd of Belial
  A halberd said to have belonged to a tribal king, made of bone, and sharpened to its limit. It carries no enchantment but is almost unbreakable.
  
  Robe (Right)
  Agnes' robe, made of human flesh, carries an enchantment with casting illusions to whoever she wishes and teleportation.
  
  Battle Gear (Left)
  Her gear is spelled with many enchantments, some assisting her in combat and others giving her a clear state of mind and intent.
  
  Watch
  Agnes carries a watch/bracelet that's enchanted to alert her whenever her child is harmed.

  Personality:
  Caroline is a person whose character is difficult to read. She possesses a dislike of people that borders on mistrust, which is something that she shares with her brother. She is a skilled actress as she is capable of putting on the facade of an innocent, curious young girl when she needs to. However, under that mask lies a madwoman, prone to fits of insane laughter and possessing no regard for the lives of people she doesn't know.
  
  There is a twisted justice behind her methods, however, as the people that she messes with were would-be murderers or child abusers. In hindsight, Caroline possesses some degree of innocence that her psychotic behavior has not entirely ruined; she has a soft spot for small animals and other creatures. Caroline is determined to do what she must to gain favor from anybody she can, she desires attention from anybody she can get it from.
  
  Biography:
  Born with her brother Caetano Earnest, her life was rather standard. She played with her brother as good as a young sister could and was civilized enough to have her parents believe she could be something. Though that ended when she was cursed upon stepping on the land of a witch. Her legs became mangled and degraded after a while, after a month, she was bound to a wheelchair as nothing else could let her move. Her family's opinion of her did change at the time, they saw her as useless, incapable of passing on the legacy they so wished for. Caroline didn't give up though, her lack of mobility did not stop her from achieving some sort of greatness. She taught herself magic through grimoires left by her mother and even adopted a form of magic to use to make up for her lack of strength.
  
  Time went on, she grew more powerful as a mage of minor nobility did and learned more than she could ever imagine. Her parent's faith in her was restored and stayed that way until their eventual death from old age. Caroline and her brother were left without a home as their estate was reclaimed by the kingdom, now seeking refuge, they found their way into Noah's Park and consequently into a village there. The village was run by a man named Ebel, a warrior as shown by his rather barbaric appearance. Ebel asked of one thing from them to allow them to stay and find a home in his village, he asked whether or not they would be willing to fight by his side should he ever require their help. With no other places to go, the two accepted and became apart of his group; The Circle of the Marsh.
  
  Although Caroline's opinion of Ebel wasn't the best, Caroline grew to respect him as she saw how he led the village and operated his own business.

  Name: Cain Ozai
  
  Nickname/Title: The Silent Devil, Oz
  
  Age: 24
  
  Gender: Male
  
  Race: Human
  
  Rank: 10
  
  Affiliation: Hearts
  
  Stats: 1000/1500
  
  
• 
  Personality:
  
  Cain can be seen as a jokester during his day to day life with his general disregard of what happens to him. To him, any event is just a little piece of spice to add some flavor to that day. Other than that, Cain is pretty regular. Going out, having fun, drinking with friends, seeing women entertainment, and such. The only thing that really gets Cain off is any type of official in the Hearts, making Cain almost bloodthirsty instantly.
  
  Biography:
  
  Cain grew up alone, thrown into an underground fighting ring for most of his life with only sound magic. The only way he survived was an almost father figure, who was there longer than Cain but Cain himself didn't know for how much longer, who taught him how to fight. Year after year after year, Cain became known as the Devil who made no noise after he was undefeated after 6 years in the ring. Eventually, the time to loose everything came up sooner than Cain could have predicted. The ring leader put Cain up against his mentor, telling him to kill his only friend or Cain "would be as good as dead in this world". Fighting back tears, Cain pleaded the leader of the fights to change the fight, to do anything... All before Cain saw the leader talk to the Mayor of the town and some money being transferred. Enraged, Cain put his blade up to his neck, threatening to leave the rings but the leader cared not. "Leave then, kid. I only kept you because you brought money as people bet for you..." Tears broke, and Cain ran out of the ring just as he heard his mentor scream. Looking back, the leader chopped the head off of the mentor before tossing it towards Cain. "Wrong answer, kid." Running with nothing to loose, Cain attempted to kill the Ring Leader before being knocked down almost instantly. The Ring Leader put his blade to the throat to Cain, and right before Cain died, a mysterious person showed up and killed the ring leader before Cain's eyes. "Join us, and you can get the strength to get revenge for the person who was taken away from you." The person put a hand out to Cain, and Cain took it as he was brought up to his feet.
  
  Many years later, and Cain trains himself to a whole new level compared to the little kid in the ring. To this present day, Cain waits for the word to start from his Master, but in the meantime is going around and spreading his name.
  
• 
  Abilities:
  Vibromancy: The manipulation of Vibrations.
  -Cain can create vibrations, shattering things on touch and causing minor earthquakes.
  -Cain can turn his hand into a blade of vibrations.
  -Cain can also absorb shockwaves, and if they are not nullified he can redistribute them.
  -Cain vibrates everything about him, allowing him to become intangible. This can go from a single part of him to his whole body.
  
  Sonokinesis: The manipulation of Sound.
  -Cain can manipulate sound, making it louder or softer at will. This is used in both defensive and offensive ways.
  -Cain can change his voice's sound.
  -As described in the first bullet of sonokinesis, by increasing the sound of something it can make someone deaf or knocking someone out if loud enough and close enough. And on the flip side, the sound can be lowered until there is no audible sound.
  -Cain has enhanced hearing. and can perform "echolocation" of sorts by throwing sound around.
  -Cain can make solid constructs/attacks of sound, creating a variety of attacks.
  -Cain can "throw" sounds from one location to another, or just "create" the sound. The sound can be anything from voices to noises (walking, gunfire, etc).
  -Cain can see sound whenever looking in it's direction.
  
  Lunakinesis: The manipulation of aspects of the Moon. (All the abilities, unless specified, only work when the moon is outside.)
  -When at night, Cain can connect to leyline of the moon granting him the ability below and increased mana regeneration. Cain also feels more refreshed and energetic when the moon is out, and when connected to the leyline Cain's stamina refreshes quicker.
  -When connected to the leyline, Cain can manipulate a formless translucent type of light magic. This light magic can be made into projectiles, weapons, blocks, etc. The items weigh next to nothing, however they damage according to the magic stat despite it.
  -Cain can see through the night using the light of the moon, allowing no darkness anywhere during the night. This ability also works when it is not nighttime, but Cain must use it in dark spaces (ie a cave) or risk blinding himself.
  -Cain can move water at the coast of Ornare. This ability can work with the moon, creating a stronger effect, or during the day causing not as large of a difference in the water.
  
  Picnokinesis: The manipulation of Density.
  -Cain can manipulate and alter the density and solidity of objects or part of an object, whether living or non-living.
  -Cain can infuse density into his combat, allowing him to have weighted attacks.
  -Cain is simultaneously both weighted and weightless, allowing him to have both physical mass/weight and no physical mass/weight at once. As such he can do things like walk on quicksand without falling through or walk on pressure traps without triggering them because he has no physical weight but he can also knock things over or carry things that weight more then enough to weight him down or knock him over without affecting his surroundings.
  -Cain can manipulate the weight, the force on the object due to gravity, of anything to make it very light and easy to move, or very heavy and impossible to move. They can make the object so heavy it can break through almost anything, or so light that it can just float away.
  
  Cain is proficient in both his "hand sword", the spear, and the bow.
  
  Gear:
  Cain has a spear on his persons majority of the time, and a bow that he doesn't carry on himself often. Both weapons are custom made for Cain, allowing them to be weighed and designed for Cain in mind. Each weapon is enchanted with a soul-bound enchantment, repelling anyone who doesn't have Cain's mana signature. Cain also carries a mask that is enchanted with an illusion spell.
  
  
• 
  Cain, at the moment, is close to a handful of people and that is it. However, despite being "friends" and almost like a family, Cain knows almost nothing about to any of them minus his Master.
  
  Master: To Cain, the savior of his life along with the person that gave Cain purpose again when he saw none before.

  Name: Lazara Faust
  
  Nickname/Title: Bloody Baron (Is more commonly known as BB compared to it in length), Guild's Second
  
  Age: Actual age is 36; Looks 20 in a majority of his skins.
  
  Gender: Male
  
  Race: Shapeshifter
  
  Suit: Diamonds
  
  Affiliation: Assassin's Guild
  
  Rank: 10
  
  Stats: 1350/1000
  
  
• 
  Personality:
  
  Lazara is cunning, twisted, and sadistic enough that rumors alone cause normal civilians to faint at his stories. When fighting, a bloodthirsty look is the only thing in Lazara's eyes as he massacres anyone not considered an ally. However, outside of work Lazara could be considered normal seen briefly by Agnes and the Guildmaster themself alone. Few things annoy Lazara, that is anyone messing with his child and when people don't do their service. The latter is apparent when he partakes in his tasks from the Guildmaster, while less so when doing regular missions.
  
  Biography:
  
  Lazara seemingly popped out of the blue, with no ties leading back to anywhere. When confronted about his own past, the questioner almost always looses a limb. The only past that isn't unknown, is that he is a part of the Assassin's Guild with undying loyalty to an insane degree. People question why, however none except the man himself know why Lazara is so devote to the cause. Nevertheless, Lazara has shown to be loyal (and strong enough to provide) to the cause, which has gotten him high enough to finally manage exactly how loyal everyone is.
  
• 
  Abilities:
  -Blood Magic: Through blood magic, Lazara can crystallize blood, mainly into objects or creatures which can be controlled through psychic magic (explained in it), but also simply used to stop it from flowing. With liquid blood, he can ‘grab’ it as soon as eye contact is made or is in proximity. With enough blood supplied, Lazara can heal minor wounds and can go into lost limbs with enough blood to replace the volume missing. Lazara can also curse victims causing constant bleeding, requiring healed or stopped with other measures as it doesn't stop until the source of energy is removed.
  
  -Psychic Magic: Projecting his consciousness, Lazara can put it into blood constructs (mentioned earlier) to control them and get information from their eyes while regaining his own body's information through minimal brain power left inside. If the construct is destroyed, a massive headache is sent to Lazara fitting it almost impossible to concentrate on minor things. Without projecting himself, information is still gathered but commands must be given. Lazara can also communicate telepathically, and can tune into "channels" to listen. Cursing his opponents, Lazara can both cause headaches to people, rendering concentration to a minimum, and can also knock out people with sensory overload as he transmits certain gruesome videos in a bulk package directly to the brain. Finally, he can get simple pictures and emotions through reading a single person's brain through repeat trials on welcoming test subjects. Lazara can also edit memories, including his own memories.
  
  -Weapon Magic: Lazara can summon weapons made out of pure mana, with the obvious ability to control them without physical touch. With them being made out of Lazara's mana, they cannot be manipulated and can only destroyed when the mana it is made out of is removed. The swords are, of course, stronger than typical weapons out of an armory. Through rigorous training, Lazara is a master in every type of weapon, allowing a variety of weapons to be summoned with this magic. Takes one second for small weapons to form, two for a normal sized weapon, and three for two-handed weapons; the max range is fifty feet. Max amount of weapons is 100 at a time. Lazara can summon armor made out of his mana that are of similar strength/defense of his weapons.
  
  -Plant Magic: Lazara can manipulate plants and grow plants an accelerated rate. Lazara inherently knows all plants, and where any in his location are, and their uses. Combining this knowledge, and the knowledge of how to make poisons, Lazara can grow flowers that release poison. Lazara can also create plant "creatures" that burst out of the ground. Once out of the ground, they perform similarly to Lazara's blood creatures.
  
  -Serpent Breath: A martial arts that relies on quick and sudden movements to throw off enemies, out-speed defenses and strike effectively at opportune times. Through a particular breathing pattern that one must master, you can temporarily boost your muscles in sharp bursts to deliver strong and swift strikes at a time. This style is particularly effective for assassination or striking your opponents vitals to incapacitate or destroy organs. Techniques also include disconcerting evasive movement, a favorite being "Blink Step", where the user sharply darts forward during an opponent blinking to appear as though they've teleported forward. Simple deception tricks like this are common for enhancing your combat.
  
  Gear:
  Lazara has an enchanted sword with sharpness, durability, and bleeding. Alike the other assassins in the guild, Lazara has a ring of invisibility. Lazara also has a ring that reduces his mana aura.

• Nickname: Cilantro (by the Jokers), Mark Thunder (by the circus in the Clubs kingdom), Gnocchi (by Myles Rein only. He already hates this nickname, if someone else called him that, expect a dart to the kneecap). Cilantro was not born with a real name.
  
  Age: 20
  
  Gender: Male
  
  Race: Human
  
  Affliation: Jokers
  
  Rank: 4 (6 with Absolute Downfall)
  
  Substats: 100/250 (100/500 with Absolute Downfall)
  
  
• 
  Cilantro is a young man with quite low of self-esteem, although this isn't very obvious due to his flamboyant behavior. However, his confidence is much more of an improvement from five years ago. He is highly loyal to the Jokers due to how he perceives them as a community and a family that he never had. Cilantro still retains his bleak outlook on life and his dry humor. His favorite food is cinnamon buttered toast with blueberry jam.
  
  "The weak cannot be courageous." Although he still stands by what he said five years ago, Cilantro now believes that being strong doesn't only mean rank and magic. People like Myles, who wasn't even a royal, acted much like a royal. He had strength without magic, and he wasn't the weak pitiful boy he once was. Cilantro is driven forward by the possibility of revenge just on the verge of the sunrise.
  
• 
  Backstory:
  
  "Lads and ladies, I present to you: the great Mark Thunder!"
  
  A short boy with scraggly golden brown hair stepped out from behind the patterned red and white tent, each hand armed with four darts On his right hand was a tarnished ring with a jagged mana stone. His face was a picture of uncertainty, defiance, and fear. The audience was whispering. They didn't know who this newcomer was, and based on the way that his slumped posture was presented, it didn't seem like he was a talented newcomer.
  
  The boy walked over to a target, where a volunteer was splayed out against. The target was particularly small, leaving no room for error. If the boy was off by more than just an inch, the deadly darts in his hand would impale the volunteer. The boy raised his arm, and with the audience holding their breath with anticipation, let loose the four darts.
  
  They each struck the board in the small areas where the target's body parts didn't occupy. Impossibly, the boy raised his left hand-- his nondominent hand-- and let loose of the darts. They slammed into the target-- millimeters away from the other darts.
  
  With this, the crowd let loose applause. Not particularly loud and thundering, but applause nonetheless. The boy looked up at the crowd, unsure what to make of the sounds. He looked back at the circus master, who gave him an encouraging thumbs up.
  
  At first, the boy's smile was doubting and cautious. But when the crowd continued to applaud, finally smiled, finally truly smiled, knowing that for once, he was appreciated.
  
  In the Spades kingdom, there were a cult of mages. It was mostly twos and threes, and led by an eight. Their goal was to create a superior mage by infusing their souls with one of a phoenix, through the use of a fossilized phoenix feather. They worked tirelessly to try to obtain the correct conditions for the miracle to happen. But just as they thought that they succeeded, they were given a failure.
  
  A failure that was later known as Cilantro of the Jokers. The cult of mages knew immediately that he was a failure, so as such, they attempted to sacrifice him to the demons in hopes of acquiring some sort of power. Fortunately, a traveling circus that was passing by saved Cilantro from his fate.
  
  He was picked up by the traveling circus, and spent most of his early years in their ranks, practicing an art so that he may be useful to them. As a result, he became one of the best dart throwers in the kingdom.
  
  After years of performing for Miss Taylor's Cirque Delirium, the war between the Argossians and the Suits began. At first, he wasn't allowed to participate-- he was way too young. But when he turned 15, he immediately joined up with the Jokers.
  
  Why the Jokers? Because in his early childhood, Cilantro grew to resent the ways of the Four Suits (as such, he was an opposer to the alliance between the Jokers and the Heart royals). He was created in a competitive race to be the most powerful mage, and as such, the most privileged. And when he was deemed a failure, he was cast out and ostracized by the general public.
  
  So that's where his story starts. But not before long, it will end.
  
  Forestory:
  
  With the five year timeskip, Cilantro has grown up into a new man. This was mostly due to one particular person-- Myles Rein, a happy-go-lucky Argossian. You'll have to wait for my flashbacks if you want to know what happens, however I will hint that it will involve all the following: Jokers, martial arts, and holidays, oh my!
  
• 
  Abilities:
  
  • Soul of the Phoenix: Cilantro can spark a weak flame in his hand at will. Of course, this is completely nullified by his ring
  • Superior Dart Throwing: Cilantro has the agility to throw a dart and hit a bullet out of the air
  • Stream Breath: Cilantro can use stream breath while using his darts as a weapon, relying on parries and indirect comebacks to make up for his lack of strength. This was taught to Cilantro by Kaiden. Due to Cilantro's temperament, he relies more on techniques than on chi channeling, however, Cilantro is fully capable of channeling his chi to give him immunity to attacks. More about Stream Breath can be found in the lore.
    • Flames of Desire: Cilantro's personal special technique, meant to give him an upper hand even when he's outmatched. He can infuse his counterattacks with chi that sap the strength of whoever it hits, transferring that strength to Cilantro. If Cilantro chooses to infuse his darts with this chi, then whoever gets hit by the darts will continuously lose strength, with that strength being given to Cilantro, until the affected opponent pulls out those darts.
    • Goading Blow: Unlike most Stream Breath users, Cilantro can attack unprovoked without breaking his stream breath stance. The intention of this attack is to make it too dangerous for the enemy to not attack back.
  • Cirque Delirium: Cilantro has monkey-like agility that is due to his circus training
  • Acting: Small tidbits of acting that Myles passed onto Cilantro. This is what gives Cilantor his bravado.
  Equipment:
  
  
  • An absurd amount of darts. These have poisoned tips thanks to the Assassins Guild.
  • Mana Neutralization Ring: [Redacted; Kloudy should know what this means.]
  • Emperor of Hearts: A specific dart that Cilantro has, identifiable by its larger size, flame-red body and the use of an Argossian steel tip. It was enchanted by the Ace of Hearts, Leolin, and is capable of burning through even the strongest of mage defenses. 20,000 mana has been stored up, however, it has been enchanted with only 2k strength. There is also an enchantment on it that allows it to instantly return to the user after being used.
  • Grappling hook and line
  • Myles Rein's ceramic cup. This is covered and laminated with thousands of stamps and stickers, evident of Myles's wanderlusting tendencies in Argossia
  • Absolute Downfall (Special/Uncommon): Cilantro's collar, which is enchanted to provide Cilantro with higher phys (500)
  • Argossian uniform. The insignia has been ripped off and replaced with a yellow smiley face.
    • Devil's Charm: A red flower-shaped stone charm which has been pinned onto Cilantro's uniform. They were obtained during Devil's Due, and they probably do nothing to ward off demons.
  
  
• 
  
  • Kaiden: Kaiden is like a bigger brother to Cilantro in a world where he never had family. He was the one who taught Cilantro the art of Stream Breath
  • Myles Rein: Myles and Cilantro are best buds, and both of their energetic personalities mesh very well together.
  • Zephyr "Twig" Terwilliger: Cilantro dislikes Twig due to his royal status, but he does find companionship in the fact that both of them have faced quite a loss.
  • Guin: Similar to his outlook on Twig, Cilantro dislikes Guin because she's a royal. But he also totally has a crush on her.

Male

Rank:
7 [400/300]

Affiliations:
Jokers | Hearts

Physiological/Psychological

Personality:
Declan isn't a very memorable person. Just another passing face in the endless crowd of people you would meet in life. Unremarkable in almost every way, the most you'd remember from him is the fact that he's silent all throughout your interaction with him with a passive smile on his face. In fact, you'd think he was just some servant boy who was going to attend to you. Most don't even notice when he disappears from his position. And this is exactly what he wants. He wants to be part of the crowd, away from the spotlight because if people don't pay attention to you, you can get away with so many things. It's why he's valued - because he's so unremarkable and normal in terms of personality that no one gives him a second glance. Not unless he actually makes himself more known and wants you to remember him. It's simple manipulation but it's something he does well.

Socially, he's still a silent person. Or at least, you would never hear a peep from his mouth but that's because he's mute. Usually, when he's on serious jobs, Declan does don the silent persona. However, once you get to know him, Declan is rather friendly. Most of his actions are done out of genuine interest in a subject matter and he rarely expresses outright disgust towards a certain action. And perhaps it is this all accepting nature that can put off people - because only a man with no morals can so readily accept so many things in life and roll with it. And Declan is exactly that. With little morals governing his thoughts, his actions are merciless but also equal. He only abides by his law and sometimes by other's laws as well.

Declan also has a tendency to be fickle. There are many interesting things in life, but there are also many things that one needs. And sometimes, you have to betray someone to get it. Declan is not above that. However, he doesn't do this without reason. He has many things to weigh before making a decision to betray an ally - but that's because he would be risking his own neck if he did. He does have times when he can be the most loyal person in the world - but those are rare and in between. He could count on his one hand how many times he had felt strong loyalty towards a person or a cause. However, he does keep his promises but he doesn't give those away easily.

Through years of being in the Jokers, Declan has developed a well-hidden devotion to the cause. Years of being around the royalty has taught him quite a fair bit of politics and he's surprisingly well read despite his general demeanor. Declan's curiosity in Argossian technology has consumed his very being and has dedicated a lot of his time into this course of study. He may not agree with what had happened to their land, but he had no doubt that the Arogossians had technology that could help them.

Backstory

Backstory:
Declan couldn't remember a time when he wasn't on the streets. He could barely remember much about his young life. There had only been one person who aided him throughout his younger years - an old hermit who took pity upon young Declan. As far as he knew, the hermit had been the one to give him a name. At first, it was easy to play the kicked puppy card when you were a child. Despite the power disparity, there were many who took pity upon the young boy and give him something for him to survive off of. He and the hermit had traveled from town to town, kingdom to kingdom - rarely legally but that didn't quite matter in the long run. Not for them, at the very least. As long as they didn't get caught, they would be fine.

But the hermit had passed and Declan was left alone. It was difficult to survive without anyone to guide you but the streets temper people fast, and they change people forever. Declan was a product of the harsh environment but the boy never seemed to mind. He was rarely interested in the political affairs of the kingdoms - hard to be when the only thing in your mind is how you're going to eat when you go hungry again. The power system sucked for someone like him, born without parents and apparently no latent power to speak of. But hey, you just accept what's given to you by life and continue living. So he does whatever he can to survive. That stretches from doing odd jobs for people to stealing food or money.

During his early teenage years, he had been at the Hearts kingdom. There he had met this girl around his age who seemed to be in the most depressive state. Just like how the hermit had helped Declan, he decided to at least give the girl a fighting chance. For the first few days, he had to steal twice of what he usually did or he just gave her a part of his portion. Slowly, however, she became more grounded. Declan had thought to leave once she's on her feet but she proved to be an able companion so they came to the agreement of being partners in crime. Somehow, they had managed to overcome the lack of proper verbal communication. They understood each other well enough. With her brains and his street rat skills, they managed to thrive.

Up until they slipped up and guards came after them. He got separated from her and was knocked out by some guard's magic. By the time he woke up, he expected to be in a cell and prayed she would not be there. But he wasn't in jail or dead. He was with a young man who was grinning and holding out some food. Said he didn't agree with the current way their kingdoms functioned and offered to take in Declan. They wanted to incite a revolution against injustice. Declan would have accepted but he needed to revisit his makeshift shack first - hoping that she was there. He snuck back into the city and waited. She never came back. Knowing there was nothing he could do, not yet anyway, he returned to the man to join him on his quest.

They had soon come to the Jokers who shared the man's sentiment. Since he had joined, Declan decided to join as well. It had been fun. He wasn't exactly as gung-ho about the belief as the other members of the organization but he was being fed and the extra training and technology that they were being provided was certainly useful.

Lately, he had reunited with the teenager of his past who is now the Queen of Hearts. Ever since then, he had been working for her as her personal telepath. After the fateful war with Argossia, Declan has since been spending his time researching with his assigned group.

Combat

Abilities:

• Telepathy:Declan's telepathic magic isn't something that would raise people's interest all too much. After all, it's simply used as a method of proper communication between him and other people who can't understand vague gestures coming from him. He is able to tap into the surface level of people's minds so that he can communicate his thoughts to them. He can open a channel for the other party to respond through telepathy as well.
  • Group Telepathy: Declan has learned how to communicate with multiple people at once using telepathy as long as they are all within reach of his magic. With this method, the group can communicate with each other through telepathy as well.
• Silencing Magic: Declan has the magic to be able to muffle or even completely silence a particular sound. Most often used during times when he needs to hide his position or a certain gunshot. He can only cast these when he knows where the sound is coming from.
• Telekinesis: The magic acts as a precise, invisible force that allows the user to manipulate objects without having to physically touch them. Often used by Declan to manipulate multiple weaponry at the same time or to be able to lift himself off the ground. However, it can be used to create a powerful force that can push and sometimes even destroy an object if Declan so wishes.

Skills:

• Expert Stealth: Ever since he was a kid, this has been his most prized skill. He knows how to blend into the crowd and to the background to get whoever is chasing him off his back.
• Sleight of Hand: A thief since he was a child, Declan has mastered the art of pickpocketing and simply just stealing something without people noticing. As long as someone is distracted, it is likely he can pick something off.
• Expert Marksman - He had spent a lot of his time training with mid-long ranged fighting, especially with the Argossian tech that has been provided to the group.
• Gun Modifications: Having spent time fiddling with the Argossian tech that had been given to him, he had slowly learned how to properly modify their technology as well as inserting magic into them to pack more power.
• Engineering - Over the years, Declan has developed a knack for Argossian engineering and is able to study them better than most inhabitants of the kingdoms.
• Parkour - Ever since he was a kid, he's been very active in the art of freerunning. He has honed his skills to near perfection to use the terrain to his advantage as much as he can.

Gear:

• PF-201 [2x] - A handgun from the Argossian Military. He has a detachable silencer for each gun. Both of them are enchanted for increased piercing power.
• "Predator" - A heavy duty sniper rifle with bullets that are meant to pierce through even thin cover. It has a detachable 4x magnified scope which has been enchanted so that it can switch between 4x magnification, 6x magnification and 10x magnification. The Predator has been worked upon so that a mage would be able to push magical energy combined with the blast of a gunpowder to mimic a railgun's destructive potential.
• Smoke Grenades - This allows for a cover to escape or to get closer to enemies. These are enchanted so that they blow thicker smoke and it takes longer to disperse naturally. He constantly resupplies himself with these.
• Mines and explosives - Declan usually carries these only during missions or when he expects fights to happen. These are simple explosives that can be strung together. Often used just for sabotage or for lower ranking enemies.
• Enchanted Broadsword - Tempered with magic that increases its durability and sharpness, the sword - while not unique in any way - is of help when it comes to combating smaller threats.
• Hidden Knives [6x] - Hidden under his clothing that are easily accessible, these are used for small time assassinations. They are enchanted in which magical, invisible tethers can be attached to them and he can pull them back when he throws them away. Of course, he would need to catch these knives if he wants to retrieve them.
• Magicite Kunai - Hidden on his bracers are two kunais that can be launched. It had a chain attached to the end to make it easier to be restored like a harpoon. These are reserved to punch through and disable other mages.
• Samael's Storage Mirror - Declan keeps this with him at all times and stores all of his gear inside. He also keeps emergency food supplies in there just in case one of them gets hungry. You can never be too careful.
• Necklace of the Wind - An enchanted necklace that, when activated, gives the user 600 phys to their speed and, like any other enchantment, must be re-enchanted after the manastone is depleted. [Rare Rarity | Special Quality]
• Ring of Protection [800 | 300] - An enchanted ring that can be activated at any time which surrounds the wearer with a barrier to protect from both magical and physical attacks. It can be activated and deactivated at will. [Blessed Rarity | Special Quality]
• Ring of Mana Neutralization - Provided to him by Twig, it's something he can only use in emergencies. They claimed that it would be able to neutralize any mage in its range - regardless of rank and power. Unfortunately, it doesn't last long so he can only use it rarely.

Others

Relationships:
Guineverre Victoria Y Blanca [Queen of Hearts]

"The woman went from rags to riches. She's living every street rat's dream - but I don't envy her position."

Declan met the queen during his teenage years when it just so happened that he found her - starving and depressed - in the streets. It was a simple calculation on his part, he'd help her get her back on her feet and they'd go on their own way. So he took her to his little abandoned shack. It took days of him providing her food before she responded to any of his questions. Gave him a simple name and that was that. Another few days to coax her out and finally, she took part in some of his escapades. He figured on moving on after another week but he found that Guin was smarter than she looked. Her plans usually goes off without a hitch and she's managed to barter and scam without much difficulty. So, he decided to stay with her. They were separated after a few months and he never found her again.

So imagine his surprise when her name came up on the Ace Tournament. He wasn't sure at first as he didn't know her full name but after checking it out, he was sure that it was her. She lost and disappeared off the grid again before popping up as a contender for Queenship and won. They had reunited two years prior in a coastal town and Declan was adamant in sticking with her for the remainder of her trip - much to her general annoyance of course. However, ever since then, Declan has been allowed into the Hearts Castle as Guineverre’s personal telepath.

Arabella Vanstauf [_ of Hearts]

“She’s the personification of a ball of sunshine. Pray to heaven and hell that you don’t cross her.”

Due to Declan’s constant presence in the Heats castle, they had naturally met. Because of their friendly dispositions, they had become fast friends. Over the years, their friendship developed with Declan even putting on an effort and inviting Arabella to eat - something he rarely does to people he doesn’t know. They are even known to sometimes be found around comfortable places, comfortably asleep with Arabella in her animal forms while snuggled up to him. Declan had also discovered that she seemed to be rather neutral to his thievery, which was surprising in itself.

Cassius Bellarmont [King of Hearts]

“He's a great friend. It's really nice to listen to him rant every now and then. Wouldn't change him for the world."

Over the years they've worked together, Declan has found himself getting close to the Cassius and has found spending time with him enjoyable. At least the guy wasn't all work - even if he seems constantly stressed about the current situation. It's because of Cassius that Declan's manage to expand his political knowledge. One could even say that they've become best friends. If anything, they're close enough that Declan has started breaking into his room to exchange notes with him.

Zephyr Terwilliger [Jack of Hearts]

"When I first met him, I thought we'd never get along. Working with him really changes your perspective."

Declan respects Twig in a way that he respected Jake - both were good leaders. He had his doubts about Twig, if only because the man would be swamped with work and the fact that he was technically a recent recruit to the Jokers, but Twig has surpassed his expectations. He's gotten close to Twig and has been known to burst into his office holding food to make sure that the guy doesn't pass out from starvation.

Leolin Hravart III [Ace of Hearts]

"He's a pretty cool person. Just... terrifying."

Declan isn't openly afraid of Leolin and he likes to think that he's starting to get used to his overwhelming mana. Nevertheless, he gets along with Leolin rather well and Declan sometimes visits his office to eat with him or to invite him to raiding Guin's pantry every now and then. All in good fun, of course.

Adelleid Frey [Jack of Clubs]

"He's gone far. Glad the weapons could help him out."

Though they've never really talked all that much, the two get along pretty well. Declan had personally provided Frey his weaponry when he was going to the royal tournament and bade him good luck.

Xixix Valentine [King of Clubs]

"Guy's crazy! Full respects to him!"

While they only had one interaction so far, Declan had absolutely no idea what he should think about X. On one hand, he was a king and he has shown his full capabilities of it. On the other hand, the guy almost choked on a pastry and had a delusional pastry trip in the Hearts kitchen which landed on a year ban for Declan and a forever ban for X. Declan likes to think they got along well.

Iris Bastille [4 of Clubs]

"We couldn't have gotten as far as we did without her help."

It was hard not to like a person you spend four years with, almost nonstop. Declan has gotten quite close to the king's secretary. He respects her for what she has done and what she is capable of if only the system hadn't completely screwed her over. The two of them keep in contact but Declan does feel bad for keeping secrets from her.

"One by one the artefacts are being revealed. It's only a matter of time until I can study one as well." Callum Mallard

​

Basic

Name:
Callum Mallard

Titles:
Cal

Age:
39

Race:
Human

Sex:
Male

Rank:
10 [680/720]

Affiliations:
Himself | Mercenary Guild | Spades [Selectively]

Physiological/Psychological

Personality:
Often seen with a calm and serene look on his face, Callum is seen as someone with a good head on his shoulders. And typically, he does. Callum doesn't easily let his emotions rage out of control because he already has a companion who has that going for her. And for him, letting too much emotion cloud one's judgement could lead to disastrous results but he does know that it would do him no good to lock it up either. He tries to maintain a good balance of logic and emotion in his decisions. He isn't too keen on letting one or the other override a decision lest he makes the wrong one, but even he isn't immune to bouts of emotional outbursts.

He is a driven man with a goal to pursue - and he will stop at nothing to get what he yearns for. He isn't above paying people or even forcing people to tell him what he wants to know, but he typically likes to go about it in a calm manner. There's no use in scaring someone off and having them lie to you after all. With a keen eye for detail, he typically collects all the information he can get and then try to deduce possibilities from there. Artifact hunting requires both skill and patience and the latter he has quite an advantage on.

Callum, however, is a friendly soul outside of his obsession. He is a man of conversation even outside of information gathering. He simply likes to sit down, relax and talk with some people to exchange experiences. He loves a good story after all, even if it wasn't his. Callum even appreciates the exaggerations of bards since it makes the storytelling even more interesting. It was how he got into artifact hunting in the first place - legends and rumors of powerful beings long forgotten. Sometimes, the stories of old are all true and people brush it off as something someone just decided to tell their children for fun.

Backstory

Backstory:
It would be a lie if Callum told you that his life started off rough. Not really. Born into a commoner family, he lived a lot of his young years in a farm and barn, tending to crops and animals. He never really minded the farming life. They had enough money to scrape by everyday and they were happy and content. His parents were low ranking citizens but they made do with what they have. Crops tend to rake in good money as well as their swine, so they don't complain. This was a good and honest way of life and Callum was content with that.

Up until when he was a young teenager, first discovering his magical affinity, when his parents offhandedly told him about an artifact locked away in the Spades Castle. Callum had become invested in the story, wondering why it hasn't been opened yet and why they aren't pooling resources into finding other artifacts because when he asked again, his parents just shrugged and said that it was the only known artifact to have been found in their kingdom. But Callum grew up on legends - of dragons wielding helmets of great intimidation and a spear that could pierce the heavens. Exaggerated, yes, but if one artifact exists, then why can't the others?

Callum's parents hadn't agreed to him leaving at first, despite him training nearly everyday so that he may be an apt adventurer. It had taken him a while - after all, in between tiring work and having only a few people to teach him, he was mostly teaching himself. He wanted to follow where the legends would take him. Callum wasn't in it for the glory, he was in it because he was curious. They were real, they had to be. His older sister had been the one to convince his parents to let him go. He promised to come back every now and then to help with the farm. It was a tearful goodbye and Callum knew that there was a chance he wouldn't get to come back. But he kept that to himself as he left.

Callum has spent years trying to find an artifact, collecting clues and rumors and legends and found nothing. It was a bit disappointing and discouraging but he was aware that there were others who delve into ruins to find these artifacts as well and have come up with nothing - but they couldn't give up. These must be unearthed. In the time that he spent searching for these artifacts, he had learned magic as well from fellow adventurers and good natured magic practitioners. There was one who had told him about Dysidia and taught him how to utilize it in a destructive array - one Callum didn't mind learning. One time, he had a fight that had cost him his eye while saving a merchant. The merchant had given him a discount for a magic eye. Callum decided to take it and the merchant implanted it for him.

During this time, he had also met Jana in a pub at Nalore. He had been visiting his family and was about to embark on another adventure when he decided to stop by the pub. There, he met Jana who was spouting off her life story to him - very drunk already. Apparently, she was an outlaw after a disagreement with her previous troupe. Callum decided to share his own life story even though he was aware she was too inebriated to understand but then she had expressed great interest when he mentioned the possible yield one artifact could give them. Soon after that, she got into a fight and Callum had to drag her out and ever since then they've been travelling together - hunting artifacts.

Combat

Abilities:

• Gravity Magic- Callum uses mana to be able to affect a certain object or area and change the effects of gravity upon that particular area. He can freely multiply the effects of gravity on the area to make moving difficult and even nearly impossible for those with low physical abilities. Given enough time, even structures can crumble under the heavy gravity with one great push. He can also lighten the effects of gravity for potential gliding or even flight if he concentrates.
  • Gravity Ball: Forming a dark colored ball of magic in his hands, he can throw this magic ball which would - while it is in the air - pull the objects around it to itself. Depending on how heavy and fortified something is, it can pull the object completely to its core and sticking to it or it can merely tug something to its direction. The bigger the surface area of the sphere is, the larger the area it can affect.
  • Graviton Tendrils - Using an advanced form of gravity manipulation, Cal can pool together sediments [sand, gravel, etc.] and create two tendrils that come from the ground. He can use them to attack freely with a length dependent on how much he can pull together. The tendrils are solid but easily cut - though they can easily be mended as well. He can use them as weaponry or a spear.
• Ray of Decay [Dysidia]- With the usage of Dysdia, Callum can form one straight line of this pure magic to essentially make a path of destruction. Anything within the diameter of the ray has its decomposition sped up to an abnormal rate. Plants and animals die within these rays and will be found in an advanced state of decay. Inorganic objects crumble when it is within the ray. It has a maximum diameter of twenty meters and a length that can reach up to fifty meters. He can use this at close range with simply his touch.
  • Touch of Death - By focusing Dysidia magic into his hand, a surface that he touches rapidly undergoes decay. Inorganic substances crumble under it. Armor tends to take a while before it crumbles. Those with magical resistance can resist long enough before it starts to affect them as well - usually in the form of a grayish spot beginning to spread throughout the point of touch.
  • Seek the Soul - The ray can now change direction if it hits a solid object, essentially bouncing off of it, seeking out the nearest soul to decay and corrupt. This can be controlled by Callum to avoid his allies.
• Mage Armor - He can coat himself and other people with a layer of mana that would substitute a typical armor. He can passively put it on without much toll on his mana but once it takes a hit, it saps his mana quickly. He uses these in emergencies and when he has plenty of mana left.

Skills:

• Magic Sight [Passive] - Due to circumstances during his travels, he had been blinded in his left eye. However, replacing his regular sight is the ability to see mana and dysidia flow through the use of a magical eye prosthetic. Remnants of magic spells are typically faint in color. Anything that contains mana can be seen through this sight. Every user has a unique magical signature that he can see.
• Dungeoneering - With years of practice gone into traveling and delving into ruins, Callum can be considered an experienced adventurer. He has entered and exited ruins most people would have avoided out of self-preservation.
• Alchemy - The creation of poisons and potions using various herbs has been a favored past time of his. Studying them had been mandatory for him when he had started travelling too so he wouldn't accidentally poison himself because he grabbed the wrong herb. To an extent, this has allowed him to also know a couple of things regarding cooking.
• Axe Mastery - From swinging it to cut lumber to swinging it to cleave a man's head off, Cal has a lot of experience with the usage of most types of axes. He's also capable of wielding great axes with relative ease with the combination of both his training and his magic.

Gear:

• Backbreaker - An enchanted greataxe-hammer hybrid that is typically found strapped to his back. The enchantment is gravity based - wherein Callum can easily manipulate the weight of the weaponry whenever he prefers. He had personally enchanted it so that it consumes less mana. Another added enchantment is to increase the durability of the weapon itself so it does not break easily.
• Magic Eye = [See magic sight above]
• Throwing Axes - He has two small hand axes that hang on either side of his hip.
• Hunting Knife - A knife used for more day-to-day usage and not for fighting unless needed for emergencies.
• Gravity Bomb - Personally enchanted by Callum, it explodes and increases gravity around it's a ten foot radius. Anyone who cannot surpass Callum's magic will either be stuck in place or can only move very slowly.
• Potions and Poisons - He carries around various potions and poisons of his own creation to aid with his and his companions' travels.
• Anti-gravity backpack - An enchanted backpack that renders the items inside to be weightless.
• Map and Coin - Enchanted items used for location tracking
• The Suit - The suit's a fine finish, composed purely of natural plant fibers from the one of a kind Yisstra's Grove. The Quality is a whopping 750 stat, easily enduring the bite of a bear. Complementing the suit's mere quality is its base Kinetic Energy enchantment, able to deflect physical attacks onto opponents of up to 750 stats. A simple 300 Sound Masking enchantment was also infused to provide a seamless quiet experience when trekking through even the roughest of lands. Aura Concealment follows up at a 700 stat, achieving nearly full coverage of the wearer's current 680 mana stat. Then the finishing touch. To top it all off, the contributor paired a Magic Resistance enchantment valued at 500 to ensure the safety of his crew.

Others

Relationships:
Jyotiranjana Baila [Rank 10]

"She's my partner, what else can I say? We look after each other and we got each other's back."

They had started off rather rocky, with Jana's personality. But Callum merely brushed off most of her bad traits and found that she was actually a rather useful companion. They've been together for years and they have come to an acceptable dynamic where they can effectively work together. Though, Callum is often the one that is delegated to hold Jana back when she gets a little too feisty for her own good. He also keeps their money, what little they have, knowing that Jana is a little addicted to gambling her money away.

Kaiden Alderidge [Rank 10 of Hearts]

"A good man. A good alchemist. What can I say aside from that?"

Callum and Kaiden had encountered each other during their travels and had shared an affinity for alchemy. Ever since then, they had kept in contact for various information that they regularly exchange.

Sera [Argossian]

"I suppose you can say I picked her up from the streets."

Sera sees him as a father figure and while Callum was unused to it at first, now he's more open to it and has referred to her as his daughter multiple times before. While he knows that she's not from Ornare and likely was an Argossian left in their country from the war, Callum doesn't particularly care about it. He appreciates her help in the farm.

Titles:
Vier

Age:
46

Race:
Human [bound to a Raiju]

Sex:
Female

Rank:
10 [850/300]

Affiliations:
Mercenary Guild | Diamonds

Physiological/Psychological

Personality:
Vier is more used to beasts than to people - that much is clear the first time someone sees her. With beasts, she can learn how they move, how they act, how they do things by mere observation of some samples in a population and it would be accurate. With people, however, they act far too different from each other. It makes them unpredictable. And while she is fine with the occasionally unpredictability - observations aren’t always accurate, there are always outliers - people just make her plain uncomfortable.

Nevertheless, when Vier has to interact with others - especially those that she isn't familiar with - she maintains a formal and polite air around her as a result from her training during her childhood. She knows how to interact with royalty but often trips up with the commoners due to them not having much formality. Nevertheless, thanks to her time with the mercenary guild, she's become a bit less awkward. Though, even with her constant companions, she's known to quiet. One can coax her into talking by giving her a topic but she often accidentally shuts down most conversations.

Vier has dedicated her life to the study and the capture of beasts. She had never taken them for granted - not when she was bound to one as well. She wanted to learn more and get more of them. It was a burning need by now. She knows she was bred for fighting but this was what she offered to her family - knowledge. And perhaps, a new source of income if they approach this correctly.

Backstory

Backstory:
Vier was not the firstborn. In fact, she was the fourth one - hence her name. She was the only successful child, as the first three had died when they underwent the binding process. It was tradition after all. They had to produce a child who can contain the soul of the Raiju without being rejected. Once she was bound to the Raiju, they had to make her learn how to control the lightning that it would give. And just like that, her family went back to normal with her focused on training.

The bearer of the Raiju could always choose their own path - so long as they heed the call of their family. Vier had gone on to become interested in the various beasts that dot their beloved continent. And so, she had gone on to learn all about Beast Summoning Magic, with her background of Soul Binding magic - it had been relatively more simple for her to learn. She then set out to travel the four kingdoms to both record and capture beasts of interest.

Her entire life has been dedicated to their search and study of the beasts of Ornare. During her travels, it had come to her attention that the mercenary guild had been hiring. While she did not lack funds, Vier had opted to join the guild so that she can generate her own money and not require to travel back to her family estate all the time.

Combat

Abilities:

• Beast Summoning Magic - Focused on the capture of beast souls and inserting them into mana stones - binding the will of the beasts to the order of the user of the magic. Beast summoning is a delicate act of capture and order, favored by those who spend their time with nature.
  • 4x Carette - Rare beasts. Docile. Herbivores. Mana stones grow on top of their heads which allow them to use magic to grow mana spikes on top of their horns. [500/400]
  • 5x Syilax - Deep cavern dwelling beasts who thrive best in no to low light areas. They also have thermal vision which makes them better at hunting in these areas. Their claws allow them to crawl on walls. Their sharp claws and teeth make them dangerous but what really makes them dangerous is their speed. Deer sized. [150/300]
  • 3x Garadune - These beasts burrow underground and try to get a sense of the world above through seismic tremors and then they pop out to bite/attack/consume whatever poor being is above. Their presence is obvious when they're close to the surface where the ground becomes disturbed according to its movements. [200/400]
  • 4x Lacertia- Both aggressive and docile, the Lacertia are capable of blending in with any object and are known to be very sneaky and aggressive when actively searched for. Commonly found in forested areas and mountainous regions. Fast-moving; the skin of the Lacertia is said to hold mystical properties, causing the species to be hunted and are a popular catch for any hunter. [200/500]
    • Memory Tap - This subspell allows the user to delve into the memories of their summons within a 60 feet radius.
• Soul Binding Magic - The magical art of trapping a soul into a mana stone - binding the will of the bound soul to the owner of the mana stone. This allows for the owner to force the bound soul to follow their every command and they even have the ability to control their mana and their usage of magic.
  • Howard Dellin - Passed down to her by her father, Howard is the resident telepath of the Tollamber family. Despite being soul bound, he is generally loyal to the family but his mana stone is there just in case he thinks about rejecting their orders. [550/300]
  • Nathaniel Dower - A young man who swore fealty to Vier when she had rescued him from a beast attack. Much like Howard, he is bound to her for the sole reason of safety. Despite not being magically inclined, Nathaniel was once an adventurer, using bows and arrows as his main weapon. [300/550]
    • Shock Collar - Using her lightning magic, she has created an enchantment in which when a servant of hers disobeys her orders, they will be shocked. She can adjust how high the voltage of the shock is.
• Lightning Magic - Due to the Raiju that has been bound to her soul when she was a child, Vier has developed a natural skill in the manipulation of lightning. Often utilized for long ranged attacks and enchantments.
  • Call of Lightning - A small thundercloud appears above a point of interest within a thirty feet radius and sends an electrical wave within five feet of the point of impact.
  • Raiju’s Hunger - A subspell that allows lightning to jump from one target to another, the maximum of which depends on the mana used up. Usually, it ends within five jumps. The targets have to be within ten feet from one another or else the jump will fall short.
• Spirit Magic [Dysidia] - The magic itself deals with the souls of the departed. It has the capabilities of pulling the souls back to the physical world. Vier is able to summon a spirit and communicate with them, though currently she cannot summon them in a way wherein they can utilize their magic at their full power nor their memories. She is able to bind spirits to a certain location, practically creating a spirit bank at her land.
  • Temporary Binding - Vier is able to summon a spirit and bind them to herself and be able to utilize a part of their magic. The spirits that she can be able to call are not constant and entirely depends on the area where she's using the magic.

Skills:

• Beast Researcher - Having spent her entire life researching them, Vier has a wide knowledge about beasts - from those who are common enough to be listed in a bestiary to those who are a rarity. She’s also become a skilled tracker because of this. She is also capable of accurately guessing certain actions through the observation of behavior.
• Survivalist - Most of her years were spent in the wilds, giving her good instincts as well as knowledge on what’s deadly and what’s safe in most of the wilds. She’s been known to stay in the forests for months on end with little to no contact or help from the outside world.
• Marksman - To aid her summons and to conserve magic, she trained herself to be accurate most of the times.

Gear:

• Gauntlets of the Beast - Made from the armor of a beast, it was specially crafted for Vier. Enchanted to make attacks made with the gauntlets to be more powerful using physical reinforcement magic [600 phys]. It is then enchanted by Vier to allow the flow of lightning to be more natural, making it doubly effective when used as a weapon.
• Cloak - Clipped by the pin of her family, the cloak is enchanted to be able to insulate her from both heat and cold - adjusting comfort in extreme areas for the owner. It is also protected from the wear and tear that one might associate to age of the cloth, but it can still be broken.
• Bestial Mask - The mask gives a temporary increase in the usage of the user's sense of smell and hearing.
• Lightning Cage Trap - A small bomb that releases a stream of lightning that traps whatever is in its vicinity. It electrocutes anyone who touches the cage, whether inside or outside.
• Tollamber Tome - Passed down from generation to generation, this tome contains the secret of the Tollamber family. Detailing the intricacies of spirit magic and spirit binding to continue the family tradition of the passing of the Raijuu. Vier had received the tome from her grandparents who had tragically died before they could teach her the magic themselves.

Others

Relationships:

Guineverre Victoria y Blanca [Queen of Hearts]

"She is an excellent mage and study. Working with her has been enlightening."

Guin had requested her personally from the guild, and those usually were not quests that can be turned down. It had been vague at best but Vier had soon found out that it was because Guin was interested in spirit magic, and her tome. While Vier did wonder how she was able to collect this information, the reward was well worth the trouble and Vier saw it as an opportunity to finally be able to learn her family's trade. Vier maintains a cordial and professional relationship with the queen and has managed to pick up on a few quirks, both common and odd, over their years of study. Technically speaking, Vier is still contracted with Guin but she is able to roam and do other quests and her own work as long as she is able to report back to Guin when the queen requires it.

Other:
Vier owns a land in the Hearts Kingdom in Aragon as payment from the queen herself. She has servants there. It is but a mere farm that does not have much to its name... yet.

[TPBx]

Appearance:

Name: Athania Fell Kaloronos
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Rank: Queen
Affiliation: Diamond

Personality: Hot-headed and loose tempered, unlike her father who was far more reserved. This carries into her use of shadow magic which unlike her father is heavily more offense focused. Though that's not to say she doesn't inherit all the traits of her father, she is very observant and while easily prone to create conflict is also just as prone to de-escalate it.

Biography: Athania is the bastard child of the former King of Diamonds, Ethan Kaloronos. In her account of how her father and mother met, apparently the King of Diamonds and her mother were once teenage lovers, but when Ethan saw an opportunity to ascend into the ranks of the Royalty, he abandoned them without hesitation. Because of this, Athania hated the late King and father with a passion. Upon hearing the news of his death in combat against the Royal Flushe, she was elated and rejoiced thanking them for doing something that she wished she would be able to do.

Though because of her heritage, Athania realized quickly from a young age that she was unlike the other children around her. She felt comfortable with the darkness and embraced it early on, showing a similar if not greater level of adeptness with Dysidia than her father and many other mages. By the age of 10, Athania learned many of the same magical abilities that her father had learned much later in life. She continued to study about this power as well, begrudgingly going over the notes Ethan had left behind to further her understanding of Dysidia and her affinity with the shadows. Ironically she followed in her father's footsteps, and thanks to his ascendance to the rank of King of Diamonds, was given the opportunity to study in the Royal Academy at the young age of 13 after proving herself to be incredibly studious and a naturally gifted mage in her own right.

War broke out and the Argossians, within the first year, mowed through the Kingdom of Diamonds. Unable to evacuate in time, Athania's mother became one of the first victims of the war, fatally wounded in the bombings of the countryside following the fall of Parma and Jann. Now fueled by rage and knowing that her father's ineptitude and pride were among the reasons why this tragedy happened. Athania then joined the Coalition military and fought in order to become strong enough to challenge her father for the throne and lead the diamonds to victory against the Argossians. However, despite her confidence in her abilities, Athania saw the true realities of war that day.

During the Battle of Valencia, she fought valiantly to defend the city's shield generators, leading to a nearly deadly confrontation against the Mage Hunter Byllarmont. In the ensuing chaos, Athania managed to strike down this powerful foe with the aid of Kaiden and X. Resulting in that part of the city being successful evacuated before the fighting tore the land into a hellish landscape. Her body was broken though, her gifts in magic were nothing in comparison to the might of someone with experience. After weeks of medical treatment to heal the Shadow Mage, Athania rose up to become one of the fiercest fighters the Argossians had to go against. Throwing herself into the heat of the battle to become stronger both magically and physically. Though she still had one thing to fix, her family name.

When the war quickly came to a close after the fall of the Argossian Military at the Siege of Valencia, Athania took it upon herself to rectify her father's mistakes and traitorous ways in order to bring honor back to the Kaloronos family name. She finished her schooling at the Royal Academy within the first year of the war's end and worked with the current Diamond Royalty to rebuild the kingdom. During this time she revisited her father's manuscripts and the grimoire he left behind and truly came into her own as a Dysidia Mage. With this newfound knowledge and refinement of her abilities, Athania entered the Queen's tournament where she claimed the title of Queen of Diamonds, becoming among one of the youngest mages to ever attain the rank at the age of 21. Now five months later, she celebrates her 22nd birthday and attends a meeting with the rest of the coalition in the now bustling city of Valencia.

Abilities:

Substat ( 800 / 1200 )

Shadow Magic: Unlike her father who could only manipulate the shadows and darkness around him, Athania is fully capable of generating her own shadows and using them for her spells.

• Darkness Generation: Athania uses Dysdia to convert light or raw dysidia energy into darkness for use with her spells.
  • Delumination: Athania can remove nearby light sources with the use of dysidia through the same process used for Darkness Generation but instead the darkness is not used for any particular spell and instead used as a tactical advantage to make her shadow attacks harder to avoid.
• Draw Darkness: Same as her father's version of this spell. Athania can use the darkness around her to create different objects from swords to tendrils to raven's wings that she can use to fly. It is one of the most versatile and used spells in the Shadow Magician's arsenal.
  • Shadow Enhance: Athania can bolster her physical capabilities by reinforcing her body with shadowy tendrils. Additional physical strength scales 100 + .8 Magic (480)
  • Dark Flight: Creates a pair of raven's wings that bend space around her allowing for sustained and highly maneuverable flight and mild projectile protection. An ability previously used by Ethan which allowed him to gain the high ground against the physically superior King of Spades in the form of butterfly iwings
  • Shadow Arms Construction: Can recreate in perfect detail any basic melee weapon by forming shadows and dysidia into a physical form. She however primarily relies on lances of varying lengths and the iron chain whip she fell to in Battle of Valencia.
• Shadow Chains: A separate skill from Draw Darkness. Generates several chains that can lash out at her target that scales with her physical strength. By combining the reinforcement principle of Shadow Enhance and Darkness Generation, she can create chains that scale 1:1 with her physical strength, making them harder to break than her much draw darkness constructs. After having her Draw Darkness constructs torn to shreds by the brute that was the mage hunter, Athania realized she had to create a Draw Darkness spell that was unlike her father's in order to accompany her fighting style and much more physically attuned body. By reinforcing the physical form of darkness that she used for her spells with additional shadow constructs creating a much more concentrated and sturdier substance that could take more of a beating in a similar way to how the shadow enhance ability made her physical form more resilient.
  • Shadow Chain Arms Construction: Athania has been learning to recreate the Shadows Arms sub-spell from Draw Darkness using Shadow Chains in order to create more durable and effective weapons and armor to use in her arsenal. However, unlike Shadow Arms, recreation takes a lot more than simple visualization, requiring Athania to have physically held the weapon in her hands for an extended period of time in order to understand and recreate the composition of the weapon. Further distancing herself from Draw Darkness as all weapons had to be grounded in reality in some way.
    • Shadow Chain Arms
      • Spoons
      • Kitchen Knives
      • Bottles - Athania discovered can't recreate the contents of objects as well as living things. In retrospect she figured that makes sense because that would require learning different magic altogether.
      • Argossian Firearms - When she discovered she could recreate machinery. Although firearm was not functional without bullets that contained stuff not made of darkness.
      • A Watch Stuck At 10:30 - When she discovered she can't recreate finely crafted machinery.
      • Argossian Swords - Discovered she could create weapons that were created by the Argossians. In hindsight, she recognizes the craftsmanship of some of the Argossian swords, especially those worn by officers.
      • Argossian Armor
      • Coalition Swords
      • Coalition Armor
      • Coffins
      • Clothes that she wears repeatedly.
        • This includes lingerie and underwear, rumors have begun to spread around the Royal Academy about whether or not she still wears clothes or if its all shadows given her preference for wearing dark attire.
        • The durability and protection of the clothes and armor created by this ability Athania discovered to be no different, giving some credence to the rumor due to full dresses and long robes offering greater levels of protection because of how much area they cover.

Dysidia Based Magic

• Drain: Drains target's life energy, making them feel lethargic and slow. Learned from her basic understanding of pulling dysidia and mana from her surroundings as well as the recently dead in order to gain the dysidia necessary to power her own spells by targeting this spell at a living thing, she can draw some of their power away from them. While only a mild mastery of this skill, she is very capable in exploiting her enemies momentary lapse in focus.
• Dysidia Burst: Gathers dysidia into an area the size of a small ball before releasing a deadly beam of energy. Athania can control up to 3 of these balls and fire them in different directions fairly accurately. A skill Athania knew how to use but learned that by focusing her attention and applying the same skills used to create and control shadow weapons mid-air and what she saw from Argossian warships, she learned to use them as an independently controlled long-range attack tool.

Skill:

General Weapons Practictioner - Like her father, because of the versatility of Draw Darkness, Athania has learned how to use every weapon in her arsenal at a basic level, but not being a complete master in any single weapon. This allows her to switch fluidly between different weapons and use them all effectively to a degree, creating a fighting style that can throw off even well practiced hand to hand combatants. As seen in her battle against the Mage Hunter where she effortlessly switched between using 2 handed sword techniques, sword and shield techniques, and finally finishing off the battle with a flashy change to a lance.

Backstory - Zinnia was born to a family with loving parents. They tried to give her everything they had. Filled her with their love and sympathy. The life was quite quiet, living on a farm in a town she does not remember to this day.

(another button) Slowly consuming her parents to the point of them not recognizing their own daughter.

Arabella later found out about the effect of Soul Corruption. That was the thing that killed her parents and she hated them for it however she did not know why.

Zinnie spent her life at many places. Working on a farm, in a tavern. Although the pay was good enough to live by, she felt empty and wanted to do great things. And so the fate decided. One day she witnessed an assassination of the owner of the tavern she worked in. The face of the assassin resembled her old friend and so she shouted his name after following him into an alley. The assassin stopped and recognized her. It was Moon, a childhood friend of Zinnie’s.

A negotiation started and Zinnie managed to persuade Moon to teach the arts of assassination.

The years went by and to this day she works with the assassins. Living an adventurous but bloody life.

 

[Snackofthefuture]

Name: Gypsy Code
Aliases: Gypsy Danger, Wildcard, Maverick, Loose Cannon
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Age: 26
Affiliation: Diamond
Rank: 6
Appearance: Magi by madspartan013 on DeviantArt
Role: The Construct Mage
Personality: Gypsy is what many call a loose cannon, a maverick, mr. paperwork, I want your badge on my desk by Monday. These terms do not necessarily describe the man all that well, but Gypsy doesn't mind one bit, he likes being known as the reckless, unpredictable one. He was born a noble, but Gypsy didn't stick to that path very well, getting in fights and roughhousing about a ton when he could. He is nowadays a bit less of a jerk to others, but his dickish side does show itself occasionally. Gypsy is a rowdy sonofabitch, born to take chances and roll the dice, he likes the thrill of the gamble, even if the odds aren't in his favor, hell even if he loses it ain't so bad, so long as he's got his life. As long as he's alive he can still gamble.
Motivation: To gain power, to see what the next day brings
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Abilities:
-Construct Mage-
Gypsy can form weapons, shields and everyday objects using mana that enhances the look of whatever object he has magicked into existence, giving it a blue outine. Gypsy’s ability is quite strong for his rank, but the lacking in durability of these conjurations is what puts him back a spell (haha get it a spell lol)
=Construct Hail: Gypsy summons a rain of sharp constructs from the sky, shooting towards his desired target. These can be manipulated in mid-air
=Construct devil: Gypsy summons a construct in the shape of a demon in his place and while the demon is distracting everyone Gypsy runs away.

-Street Magic-
Gyspsy likes getting his hands dirty, often literally, with blood I mean. A top class brawler, Gypsy can beat the shit out of most people. He is unnaturally good at punching people, his brawling skills superhuman in class. This magic enhances Gypsy's CQC skills to an unnatural degree.
=Bludgeon: Gypsy hits with the strength of a metal hammer, denting metal and crushing steel with his fists.
=Brawler's Curse: Causes the target to feel immense pain in their hands, this pain is just that however, pain, and can be overcome if one puts the suffering from their mind. This pain increases upon touching anything.
=For the Rats: Gypsy can upon touching a target, create an immense overpowering feeling of hunger.
-Locked- =Save your skin: Gypsy switches places with whatever object he is touching, allowing basic teleportation.

Equipment:
Gloves of hectic sorcery: A gift from Gypsy’s father, can randomly enhance different incantations to achieve power often far above that of Gypsy’s level. The reverse is also true however as the gloves can also weaken said incantations and make certain spells not useless, but much weaker than they should be.
AK47 Assault Rifle: Self-explanatory, 30 rounds, 6 magazines, basic Arogossian construction. Unknown how he acquired the weapon.
Other:

Bio: Born to house Code, Gypsy is a noble in the most lenient sense, preferring to spend his time among the common folk often. He was raised by loving parents who allowed him to do what he pleased, enjoying his noble status as much as possible. This doesn't mean his childhood was one of leisure and coddling however as early on in his life, Gypsy’s magic was discovered, an incredibly versatile ability known as Constructing. This lead to much training with his magical arts. His father also happened to be a martial arts enthusiast and this ended up passing itself onto Gypsy. Soon after discovering his magic,Gypsy went into his Royal Education, delving into economics with glee, giving himself a Jack Royal Education.

Gypsy had many friends in his childhood believing friendship to be one of the greatest gifts life could grant to a living being and among these friends, one of his closest was William Code, the notorious cryomancer and Ace of Diamonds. They were closer as children but the bond between them is still strong. Some might be confused by this friendship but the two do respect and care for one another, with Gypsy being one of the first to congratulate William on his ascension to Ace.

Gypsy studied hard and eventually reached a point he could be satisfied with his magic. He then left home for a time to better understand the world journeying throughout the kingdom of diamonds gambling and partying when possible.

When the war started Gypsy disappeared, he's recently resurfaced and wishes to work alongside his cousin.

• Name: Zephyr Terwilliger
  
  Nickname: Twig
  
  Title: The White Plague (only as a Joker), Jack of Hearts
  
  Age: 28
  
  Gender: Male
  
  Race: Human
  
  Affliation: Jokers, Hearts
  
  Substats: 1250/400
  
  
• 
  
  Twig is usually soft-spoken and doesn't like to raise his voice particularly much. He still manages to drive his point through since his soft voice has a strange ability to project across loud places. However, the problem with this is that he is easily drowned out by some extremely aggressive, adn when that happens, Twig gets easily frustrated. When with strangers, Twig is extremely polite and almost stiff. With more knowledge about the people he is talking with, Twig ends up becoming much more social. He is generally extremely forgiving to mistakes and is extremely kind and willing to help. He is also unusually calm. Only when things are exceptionally bad does he ever panic.
  
  Twig has a strong doctor moral code that he upholds. This moral code makes it so that if someone asks him for help, he provides what he can. It also means that if someone needs to confide in him with something, he would keep their secret. This moral code is also what might influence him to assist the enemy with their wounded, which could be seen as a sign of weakness and betrayal. But the urge to help almost overpowers Twig.
  
  Twig likes to chew mint leaves, whenever out in public or when he is studying. He loves books for the knowledge they bring. He dislikes the taste of seafood.
  
  After the three year timeskip, Twig has changed. Although he still has his positive demeanor, when Twig fights alongside the Jokers, he does his best to avoid talking as much as possible, and try to imitate the "silent swordsman" sort of vibe. Although he tries hard with this, he frequently cannot stop himself from chuckling in regards to how silly he thinks he is. Twig has a slightly more serious outlook at war, although he is not willing to kill someone still.
  
  After Jake's death, Twig had a period of sadness, but this has passed. He takes the Joker job much more seriously, and avoids embodying the silent nature of the White Plague as much as possible.
  
  
• 
  Version 1.5:
  
  Twig grew up in a large household with four children, with Twig being the second oldest. He lived a quiet life in a town where everyone knew each other. It was a place where everyone had what they needed. Everyone were twos or threes, except for Twig's family, which was filled with 6s since there was powerful wind magic that ran through everyone's veins. There was food on the table. Twice a week Twig was able to eat eggs. There wasn't a normal "school" though.
  
  Starting when he was eight, Twig had an interest in the field of medicine. So he took every opportunity he had to be with the local healer at and learn the trade. It was probably due to the fact that he wasn't the oldest child that he was able to sneak out and learn from the healer.
  
  When he was ten he had already gained a small but significant amount of knowledge in the practice of healing. He was able to further it more through tomes the local healer had.
  
  The local healer, who was extremely old, died when Twig was 13. Due to his early interest in healing, he ended up the most knowledgeable in the matter. Because of this, he ended up taking the position as the local healer, which he performed at adequately but not exceptionally.
  
  It was around this time that Twig became distanced from his family. He had more or less moved into the vacant house of the late healer. However, he became much more connected with the people of the town, especially the boys around his age that had a predilection to get themselves hurt. He was even willing to accompany the boys once to drive out a group of anarchists. It was from the boys that he gained the nickname Twig, partially from his last name and partially from Terwilliger's fragility and skinniness, quite like a twig.
  
  By 14, he had already taught another member of the town enough for them to take the role as a temporary healer. Twig took this opportunity to travel to an academy where they specialized in medicine. There he furthered his understanding of healing to an extreme degree. Alongside that, he also took a few years of business, for several reasons. First of all it was because Twig knew he would need to know some level of business if he was going to run a hospital. The second reason was because he needed a backup profession in the case that medicine wouldn't be able to earn enough money to feed himself. The third was because Twig only forecasted for medicine based classes-- and so the school randomly put Twig into some semi-useless business classes (he was also shoved into a magic conditioning class, which Twig managed to cheat in by making his inherit magic much weaker and slowly putting more energy into things as the year went on).
  
  It was only when he graduated that Twig realized that he had the qualifications necessary to take on a government position in the Hearts kingdom. In all honesty, Twig didn't think too much about it, but the thought of being a part of the government didn't really interest him. But later on, when he realized that he disliked the current Jack of Heart's economic decisions, he decided to challenge him.
  
  The Jack of Hearts was a tall, burly man who relied on fire magic, a greatsword, and a dozen crossbows that he carried in a barrel. Twig knew that this battle wouldn't be as easy as fighting the anarchists, but he readied himself.
  
  But to be frank, Twig wasn't prepared at all. The first crossbow bolt went shooting through Twig's chest. Fortunately, this missed any vital body parts, and Twig was able to pull out the bolt and heal himself. This went on for quite some while as the Jack of Hearts shot through half of his crossbows (Twig literally had to use some painkillers to soften the blow of each crossbow bolt) until Twig decided to send a gust of wind magic at the barrel full of crossbows, scattering it everywhere. Without any crossbows to fire, the Jack of Hearts charged forward with his sword in hand.
  
  Twig honestly wasn't a very good combatant. His wind magic along with his staff were barely enough to stop each of the sword swings. Most of them managed to hit Twig, and it took all of his healing magic to heal those wounds and fight at full power.
  
  It took a while, but Twig was able to wear down the Jack of Hearts to exhaustion. Then all it took was a well-aimed wind blade to injure the Jack of Hearts and another gust to knock him out.
  
  Immediately, Twig's first concern was the wellbeing of the former Jack of Hearts, and he used whatever remaining healing magic he had to make sure the former Jack of Hearts was okay. And then he took the vacated government position -- and he partnered himself with the local doctor, naturally.
  
  Version 3:
  
  Three years after his inauguration as Jack of Hearts, Twig still holds his position, although with more experience. Being involved in the war has caused Twig to carry more burden on himself in terms of responsibility and workload, and as we all know, practice makes perfect.
  
  When not involved with his job as Jack of Hearts, Twig took the position of a Joker, fighting alongside Cassius and Jake on the battlefield, under his own insistence. During this time, he developed his new persona that he assumed in the battlefield, the White Plague, known for his plague doctor mask and flaming green sword. In Twig's opinion, his acceptance of the Jokers meant that he needed to partake in what they did as well as making sure that they commit as little casualties as possible. Twig made it a policy to avoid killing anyone while out on his missions. Throughout the past three years, Twig hasn't talked to anybody but Cass and Guin about his Joker associations.
  
  So of course, Twig had to learn these new skills that he used as a Joker, which he did in general secrecy. After an agreement with Guin, Twig learned a lot of dysidia magic through her library's books, as well as with her tutorship and a dysidia infused gem. And as for swordplay, Twig couldn't keep his study of swordsmanship a secret, so he begrudgingly did it in the presence of as little people as possible.
  
  Version 4:
  
  During the five long years of the timeskip, Twig has been noticeably quiet. This is due to the loss of Jake, and it takes about a year for his mourning to end. He spends most of the timeskip carefully planning, as well as furthering his magic in order to prevent anybody else from getting hurt again.
  
  
• 
  
  Abilities:
  
  • Healer's Magic: Twig's most powerful asset, being his ability to speed up and improve the body's self-healing process. This allows him to heal himself and others in the midst of battle. The healing is more effective the closer he is to the target. Unfortunately, this relies on his stamina, which slowly depletes itself as he heals people. This however will take at least ten minutes when he is actively battling, and much longer in a supportive environment (ex: He has a shit ton of apple cider). This additionally can't save Twig from well-aimed fatal hits, such as a stab to the heart. If Twig is disarmed, then this healing is severely impeded. On its own, this heals at half-power at 25 ft and full power within 10 ft.
    • Burden of Afflictions: An alternative 'healing' spell that rather than healing the affected, simply passes the afflictions from the target to Twig. If Twig is within touch range, he can take from a willing ally all buffs, debuffs, curses, injuries, and other afflictions. The exception to this is dysidia poisoning.
    • Clean Slate: Twig can only cast this on himself, but he can wipe away all "changes" to himself, such as curses, injuries, and illnesses. This has to be done as a ritual though, and takes at least a minute, making it unsuitable for the midst of battle, and can only be done once without some rest. Additionally, he can't stop fatal bleeding or revert surgery.
  • Wind Magic: Twig has an inherent affinity to wind magic. This magic is incredibly unrefined and unstable, as the line of wind magic the Terwilligers are born with require extensive training to use appropriately (and Twig didn't have any of that). He is still able to draw on a weaker, more controlled version of the magic that is on par with 7s. This magic could be manifested in any way Twig chooses, such as a shield, a blade, or a gust of wind. When Twig forsakes control for power, this magic becomes as powerful as a tiny cyclone and destroys everything in its path-- Twig himself included. Even if it doesn't kill Twig, the stress of creating a cyclone would cripple both Twig's wind and his healing magic.
  • Dysidia Paralysis: Dysidia based paralysis magic that affects the victim's nerves and renders them fried so that they can't move. The affects slowly lessen with time. The presence of this magic can be seen from dark green flames and an aftertrail wherever the flame goes. Twig has not completely mastered this ability, and he channels this into his smallsword. He can only cast this externally, through his manastone. This was taught to Twig by Guin through one of her books.
  • DRAIN - It is the ability to absorb mana and stamina. Stolen mana and stamina can be used by Twig or transported into another person or container. Taught to Twig by Guin in a rudimentary fashion so that he can absorb dysidia from his surroundings to collect into his amulet. Twig focused evenly on direct and area drain.
  • Yl Fenca (Kite Form): A deadly mix of western and eastern swordsmanship cultivated by the Argossians for over a thousand years. Twig has mastered the Kite form, which was taught to Twig by Marillys Argossia (the nature of Yl Fenca is that the form chooses the wielder, and the form that a wielder knows is not determined by what the teacher knows). This allows Twig to abuse the weak points exposed by his enemies, as well as providing him the instincts necessary to quickly evade attacks. Although Yl Fenca relies heavily on strength, Twig's style allows him to be effective at hitting even without strength.
    • Serenity Call: Twig's unique Kite Form technique, carved through his battles with Marillys as the one move that can do so much as a dent in his defenses. It utilizes a burst of wind magic for speed and strength, although this isn't always necessary. Twig calls upon extreme speed and dexterity to make a singular, powerful strike at the enemy's weak point. If there are no weak points, a weak point is created at the enemy's right shoulder, where if the enemy is hit, it would prevent them from fighting (this is because it severs one of the tendons necessary for proper arm movement).
  Arsenal:
  
  
  • Pemulihan: A staff that is integral to Twig's magic, as it amplifies it incredibly. It is a gnarled wooden staff that has a deep blue spherical gem nestled in the wood at the top. The wood is solid enough to use as a combat staff. This lengthens his normal healing range to 25ft and his half-healing range to 50 ft
  • Doctor's Tools: This gigantic bag of tools is summonable through a neat little conjuration spell Twig learned while at the Medicine Academy. In it are all things a doctor might need, such as bandages, ointments, and small knives. And it also contains things a doctor definitely doesn't need, such as an abundance of rope. A lot of rope. Why the hell does a doctor need so much rope?
  • Pewter hip flask filled with apple cider for refreshment during battle
  • Argossian Smallsword: Twig uses a smallsword made from Argossian alloy, a superior mix of metals that can withstand blows most Suits weaponry cannot, this was provided to Twig by Marillys. The blade of the sword has been treated with magicite, making it a good counter against spells.
  • Jake's Mask: Twig wears Jake's mask instead of his usual Joker mask in the fourth arc. See the website linked in the Miscellaneous section for more information.
  • Tous: Originally Jake's weapon of choice, Twig carries it around as a backup weapon in knife form. See the website linked in the Miscellaneous section for more information.
  • Dysidia Gem: A round pink/red gemstone attached to a silver necklace that stores Twig's stock of dysidia. Can be refilled with either Twig or Guin's Drain ability. Worn underneath the shirt in his normal attire and exposed in his Joker attire
  • Magic Hand Mirror: One of Samael's magic mirrors. Connected to his room in the Joker base.
  • White Plague Trenchcoat (Blessed/Blessed): A blessed rarity armor that provides Twig with enhanced physical power, transformation (it can change from Twig's jacket in his normal suit to his white trenchcoat), obfuscated mana signature (Only automatically enabled in the trenchcoat)
• 
  Leolin "Leo" Hravart III (Ace of Hearts) - Twig thinks that Leo is a paragon Ace and has enjoyed his company for many years, including his occasional flirts. He respects Leo and would do his best to protect him. This platonic affection only increased greatly after Twig revealed to Leo his identity as the White Plague
  Guineverre "Guin" Victoria y Blanca (Queen of Hearts) - Twig remains on friendly terms with the Queen of Hearts, even after discovering her true intentions and nature. Of course, Twig severely disagrees with her philosophy and her practice of necromancy, however, Twig knows that he would need to tolerate this if the Hearts-Joker alliance would go anywhere, so Twig generally turns a blind eye to her actions. Their friendship has truly grown since Guin taught Twig how to utilize dysidia, as well as when Twig became the leader of the Jokers and worked more closely with the One True Queen. Twig usually follows Guin's lead, however, he's known to give her advice or rein her back into the right path.
  Jake "Silvern" Parkinson (Deceased) - Twig met Jake in the Diamonds prison, and quickly fell to his charms and good looks. Needless to say, Twig considers Jake his boyfriend. His status as a Joker doesn't bother Twig one slight bit, and on the contrary, Twig likes fighting by his side. After Jake's death, Twig realized that he had been initially fighting with the Jokers due to his infatuation. But this quickly changed into a true desire to fulfill the goals of the Jokers. And when he was alive, Jake was truly more than a best friend for Twig.
  Alaric Westguard (9 of Hearts) - Twig does not known Alaric too well.
  Cassius Bellarmont (10 of Hearts) - Twig doesn't dislike Cassius's passion and fervor to help Guin, and he usually smiles about it, since it's such a positive sort of protectiveness. Working together as Jokers out on the field of battle has birthed a strong comradeship between the two of them.
  Arabella "Ara" Vanstauf (9 of Hearts) - Twig has a friendly relationship with Ara as fellow healers, working together to heal those who are injured in the battlefield. Ara's ability to reattach limbs is also something that Twig doesn't have access to, while Twig's faster healing compliments Ara's healing. He does distrust her, since she hasn't align with the Jokers
  Quillon Downs (Ace of Spades) - ???
  Xixix "X" Valentine (King of Clubs) - ???
  Mortemiah "Emia" (Queen of Spades) - Twig is worried that she may be an obstacle towards the Joker's goals. He also has a lingering dislike for the Spades royalty for Jake's death.
  Arimand (King of Diamonds) - TBD, likely an enemy. Dislikes how he allows Will to continue acting as the Ace of Diamonds even after his betrayal.
  William Code (Ace of Diamonds) - Despises for his murder of many.
  Marillys Argossia (Argossian) - ???

  "I'm always serious. Isn't that right Professor Duck?"​
  
  Xixix doesn't take too many things seriously, including himself, and is always seeking ways to avoid any type of work. Despite his rank, he prefers to leave problems to others and will often portray himself as a lazy coward, preferring to give others credit for his work although you can never tell if he is joking or not. Hanging out with Xixix you will realize there is such a thing as being too carefree, or apathetic. Xixix will often say things in a matter of fact manner and can be pretty tactless at times even though it is usually coming from a good place. He tends to look at things from a logical perspective, even subjective things such as morality. Ironically, his actions are often quite illogical. His laziness does not always extend to the physical realm. Xixix will often arrive at conclusions, or statements without saying the important parts in between. This can leave people confused as his speech might seem fragmented while his actual thought process is anything but. Lastly, he is pretty casual at all times, speaking to most as if they are equals despite their position in society. For clarification, he is equally kind and equally a pain in the arse for all parties involved.
  
  In battle...a serious battle....a serious life threatening battle, he is almost a different person. While he maintains his blank canvas, he is far more ruthless and cunning. He would resort to almost any strategy to assure victory making him a fearsome foe. This works both ways as he is usually good at controlling his emotions even if his peers meet their end on the battlefield. Because of this many might view him as cold-blooded; however, he remembers every single person who has died on his watch.

  BACKSTORY​
  Dark Genesis
  
  Although Xixix was orphaned since birth, it is unspecified as to where he lived before his arrival at his recorded oprhnage. The orphanage most people recall his belonging, received his arrival at age 10, where he spent five years of his life before being handed over to the mages. Before that, Xixix was born into a group of assassins who delved into the underworld of club society. He only served to be a weapon and nothing more. By age 5, he had already learned how to slit someone’s throat, and by age six he had undergone severe pain tolerance training. At age 7, he had survived the Dark Rumble. An event in which prospects are forced to fight each other until one comes out alive. Sometime after this, he was assigned to discover the research of a noble suspected of Dysidia research. The dark group of mages wanted to get their hands on the research itself, and distribute it on the black market. As a cover, X was sold as a slave to the noble family through the black market to investigate the target.
  
  During his time there, he befriended a pink haired girl (Wysteria) who happened to be the daughter of his target. This is how he received most of the information. During his time there, X underwent several experiments, and other heinous activities were conducted against him since he was only a black market slave. In fact, he didn’t exist. However, despite this, his act became all too real, as he found himself genuinely caring about Wysteria. Eventually, her father would lose control of his research and doom the city. THe sudden realization of failing his mission resulted in a PTSD that caused X to leave Wysteria behind, not realizing the consequences of his actions until he made his way back to the assassins. Upon his arrival, he was immediately punished, as they interrogated the reasons behind his failure. After 2 weeks of unbearable treatment, he caved in and explained. Their resources already knew Wysteria had been taken in by a powerful mage. X was sent away, instructed that he could never return until he assassinated her. Others were sent on the mission to make sure he went through with it. However, upon leaving, the assassins guild was raided by Club Officials after X practically lead a bread crumb trail leading to their hideout. The guild became scattered, and the two people who were sent to watch him also fled, valuing their own lives ahead of his own. After 5 years of relative peace in the orphanage, those from the assassins guild appeared, attempting to kill X. X made short work of them, although the authorities thought they were simply robbers. This set off a chain of events that lead to X becoming a mage. Through chance, he eventually met Wysteria who had become a powerful mage in her own right. She immediately recognized him as Eren through his eyes. Although X denied it initially, he eventually confessed to everything after remembering how he had left her to die.
  
  
  Wysteria, conflicted with how to handle the news of betrayal, and that her one friendship began as a farce, only delved deeper into her insanity. Concluding that X was not the real Eren, and that Eren died that day, Wysteria believed she should kill X. Although X feels as if he deserves to die after what he has done, he wants to save Wysteria from her condition and help her find peace despite her desire to destroy him. Due to his past, X truly lacks empathy in most situations. Wearing a mask of eccentricity, and playfulness to hide his true cold blooded nature.
  
  
  Obligations are taxing, or at least that is what he told himself to deal with the circumstance. He couldn't understand why his peers at the orphanage made such a big deal about being adopted when he himself was a tool all of his life. How could random people love you if the people who are supposed to love you by default break their own rules? He should have known he was different from most children by that thought process alone, nevertheless he did his best to fit in as long as it did not involve him being adopted. Xixix would constantly misbehave, especially when there were visitors, just so he would not get adopted. (Perhaps he carries on these antics to this day) He didn't feel like forming a life long contract where he had to play the role of someone's son....it would be too taxing. The person who ran the orphanage thought he might be bi-polar since he was well behaved and lethargic for most of his stay there. Although he didn't like to work, he admired the Ace and the royals, often training in secret, dreaming about becoming an Ace one day. They were cool, and being awesome had its benefits. For instance, if you were at the top you could just tell others what to do and live an easy life.
  
  One time while the head of the orphanage was out, he took care of three would be kidnappers on his own. These were of course, assassins' meant to finish him off. He didn't think it was a big deal; however, it set the wheels of fate in motion. Because of his attitude toward adoption, and his discovered abilities, the orphanage contacted the mages in order to evaluate Xixix. He went along with this since he could get out of the orphanage and become a mage at the same time. Moreover, he supposed they would offer better protection. This was when he started hiding his face at a young age just in case he became one of those feel good stories where he accidently ran into his birth parents. In reality, it wasn't even his face to own. Nevertheless, hopefully all of his loose ends would be taken care of shortly. As he went through the evaluations he showed promising skill and he learned what roles the Jack, Queen, and King ranks entailed...as well as the Ace. Long story short, there was no way in hell he was doing all that. He aimed for at least rank 5, constantly sabotaging himself and acting inept. However, due to the nature of his magic he accidently rolled a 10 and summoned Alexander. Although he destroyed the training facility, and would later have to rebuild it, he achieved the 10th rank much to his dismay. Xixix continues to live his life, trying to maintain the respect he has garnered over the years while not getting too much respect lest there be talks of him moving up.
  
  Royal Tournament
  A tournament was held worldwide to decide what mages would end up being royalty. Of course, X did his best to get out of it since they were targeting those who were ranked at a 10 as the prime candidates for this tournament. Being ranked at a 10 was perfectly fine. Very little responsibility besides protecting the people. If people asked you a question you could always pull the "Speak to the manager" routine and refer them to royalty, or even another 10. You were famous...but not too famous. Important, but not too important. It was everything he could have hoped for; but somehow he got dragged into this sideshow. He was famous enough in his own kingdom that they wouldn't let him get away without competing. Plus, he realized that some incompetent hot head could end up gaining an important position...but that's what the Ace is for...unless they are also incompetent. After weighing the pros and cons he decided he would put up a good fight and then throw the match toward the end. Out of all the positions the King seemed to suit him best so he would through his lot there. During the tournament, by some misfortune...or fortune if you consider what happened next, X accidently got his canister of water mixed up with an alcoholic canister of a nervous contestant. After getting drunk he rolled a 9, gaining access to one of his more powerful weapons, and went buck wild. Not even he could tell you what exactly happened. He woke up the next day as King of the Club Kingdom much to his dismay and for some odd reason people seemed terrified of him.
  
  War in Valencia
  Despite having reservations about being in such a position X has fulfilled his roles dutifully. It wasn't the most orthodox reign, nor was he the most orthodox King, but he was there for his country when they needed him most. Although he was not weak by any measure it was his mind that helped him out the most. He avoided conflict as best he could since their kingdom had a considerable turnover; however, he has poured focus on intel and relations with the other kingdoms. Being a King wasn't so bad after all...especially since he rarely acts like one. With a new responsibility to live up to he has trained to get stronger and meet the expectations of his title. Then came The Great Battle of Valencia. While their are many strange stories about what he did there...most of them involving pigeons some way or another, Xixix fought bravely. He managed to help take out a Bellaramont who possessed a strange weapon and armor. Athania and Kaiden did most of the work before he got there, so he just helped with the clean up. However, his main accomplishment was later in the war.
  
  Charged with leading the attack on the Argossian backline, X followed through with the pre established plan. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, none of the more prominent members were able to assist him in this battle which left him severely undermanned against the fresh reserve forces. During this attack, X and co destroyed several of their anti aircraft machines by milking the element of surprise. Supply lines were destroyed as well. Moreover, they took out a great deal of soldiers, but perhaps they performed too well; the Argossians turned their full forces to this surprise encounter and began to mow down their numbers. This was priginally supposed to be when they were teleported back to the front line to regroup; after all, they were never constructed to actual defeat a fully alert reserve force. However, their transportation ran into a little trouble and was unable to send them back. Essentially, this was a death sentence to be blunt. Despite that, X and his army fought tooth and nail, barely hanging on to life until the allied air force was able to pick them up during a hailstorm. Having nearly been wiped out, X considered it a failure; however, it was noted that they were lucky to even escape with the amount of people they did. He was awarded a medal for his bravery.

  ABILITIES:
  
  LADY LUCK'S ARMORY
  
  The collective name of different weapons that have different capabilities. It is a versatile, yet troublesome ability. You see Xixix Valentine has the ability to throw a magical die that summons 1 of any number of available contracted weapons from a mythical armory. Below are the weapons, their corresponding number, and their abilities.
  
  1. Eclipse-Eclipse is the collective name of two chakrams. (Circular bladed object primarily meant for throwing, but can be used in close quarters.)These are tethered to himself with a magical, invisible string that he uses to control them like lethal yo yo's. One special ability of these magical chakram is the ability to expand and shrink on command which increases their lethal capabilities and can surprise the enemy. They can expand to the point that they have a 4 foot diameter and shrink to as little as tea cup without losing their deadly cutting capabilities. The special ability is the Iron Cyclone in which the expanded chakrams rotate violently and produce cutting shockwaves due to their speed of rotation.
  

  Spoiler

  

  2.Oathbreaker-6 ft sword that can cut through most things. While it is massive in size and weight, Xixix can swing it as if it was made of air due to his magical connection. Covers a great range. Special ability-Mirage blade-The user can perform multiple strikes within a single swing. Consecutive swings acts as a multiplier. Others will see this is afterimages, making this difficult to counter when engaged in close combat.
  
  

  Spoiler

  

  3. Asura-summons two pairs of gauntlets that float about the user. Essentially they act as extra limbs for the user which makes him dangerous in close combat. They have other uses, such as touching harmful substances/energy and multitasking. Special Ability-Hand of God, the gauntlets form one gauntlet that he wears on his right hand with visible energy flowing through it. He then snaps and that's half the population (lol jk). The user has the ability to disassemble and reassemble anything he touches with that hand. Touching living things won't kill them, it will only have them unable to function, however, creatures with strong magical/physical disposition will have a proportionate resistance to the effect. (Some might go minutes without being affected at all if they are strong enough) He can only disassemble a single object at a time. Once this ability runs out anything that was disassembled is reassembled; however, it does not have to be reassembled in its original composition.
  

  Spoiler

  

  4. Incantations of Madness--(IOM) IOM is a book that fills itself out as Xixix continues to live his life. The ability of this book is to summon infinite weapons...or at least as much as his mana will allow. If Xixix has seen it, he can summon it out of the book as long as he understands its workings. This includes weapons of the Agrossian Empire. Unlike the weapons he sees in everyday life, these are marked with the special insignia so that only he may use them; however, they are more or less ordinary weapons outside of that fact. The Trump Card of this book is Steel Rain. Like its name suggest, a large amount of weapons will rain down from the sky and damage the battlefield. Everyone take cover! It is said the amount of weapons falling total to around 100.
  
  

  Spoiler

  

  
  5. Aegis-Xixix summons a large shield. Nearly as large as him. It's main use obviously serves for defensive purposes. It is able to block physical and magical attacks while dealing blunt force damage in combat. A strange ability is that Xixix can also ride the shield like a hover board which offers him great mobility on the battlefield. The special ability of this weapon is that he can Erect a barrier around himself and allies in close proximity.
  

  Spoiler

  

  
  6. Gonieg-A long steel chain with a heavy blunt instrument on the end that is shaped like the head of a dragon. Xixix has complete control of the chain and can make it take paths and directions that are physical impossible. It is more dangerous in closed spaces where he can reflect it off surfaces to increase its speed. If he captures you with the chain your energy will be drained to weaken resistance; however, this effect is slow and to drain someone at the same strength as X would require 5 minutes. The special ability of this weapon is Iron Dragon. The chain increases in mass and becomes a chained Dragon intent on decimating it’s enemies.
  
  Note: After learning about guns from Declan, handguns, revolvers, and sniper rifles are now available
  

  Spoiler

  

  7. Virtue and Verdict-Dual arrow launchers. Great for ranged battles. The arrows are made out of concentrated mana and will last as long as Xixix has mana which favors him in most cases. Special Ability-True Spear Cannon-Shoots a concentrated arrow that is capable of traveling long distances. This attack can be launched from at least a mile away. (He can't see as far as a mile but theoretically if it was a large target, or a general area to be targeted he could shoot from that distance.) Unlike the arrows he normally shoots this arrow creates an explosion upon impact.
  

  Spoiler

  
  

  Spoiler

  

  8. Preix-A large scythe that was supposedly owned by a reaper (this is more or less a rumor to spook others) is summoned. This attack grants Xixix the ability to phase through solid objects although high energy based attacks can still effect him.
  (Fire, lighting, light etc.)
  
  The phasing can only last for a total of 2 seconds, and a 5 second cooldown is required before he can use it again. Also he can’t attack while phasing. The trump card of this scythe is rebirth. One time and one time only can he regenerate from a lethal blow but this is only if the attack does not automatically kill him. Furthermore, the regeneration begins 5 seconds after he activates the ability. After using this ability he can no longer phase through objects, essentially losing his ability until the next dice role.
  

  Spoiler

  

  
  9. Purgatory-A unique and powerful armor that was said to belong to a strong warrior of the past. When clad in this armor all of Xixix physical skills are sharply enhanced. (Half his mana total is added to his physical stats). He is particularly resistant to dark magic in this form as well. The trump card of this armor is Overdrive. For a second stats increase (The remaining mana total is added to his physical stats) Xixix breaks his physical limit by pouring more energy into the armor. A white aura will surround his body (cosmetic effect only) as this allows for a second stats increase; however, Xixix will also suffer considerable recoil and damage from his attacks and can only maintain this form for 5 minutes. Afterward he will be sore and considerably fatigued.
  

  Spoiler

  

  
  10. Castle Alexandria-When summoned the user is shackled to a chair resembling a throne and a fortress is summoned to defend and attack on the their behalf. The chair can move via mental command; however, it is fairly slow in speed. The fortress is comprised of 10 giant iron rooks. They are embedded with cannons that shoot down compressed mana/energy at the enemy and erect defensive barriers nearby. The trump card for this ability is Guardian Alexander-The Rooks will combine and transform into a giant humanoid structure that is roughly two stories tall with the user in the center which boasts great offense and defense. The physical stats are the same as the user; however, the durability is highly increased. With all else being equal this is arguably his strongest weapon. After using Alexander's final form he is unable to use mana for an extended period of time.
  

  Spoiler

  

  Spoiler

  

  
  

  

  
  11. CROSSROADS
  
  
  11. Crossroads-Crossroadsis comprised of a large set of wings that span about 12 meters on either side. Of course, they allow the user to fly naturally. However, the wings come with a set of natural abilities, as well as the contractual abilities that are bestowed upon every weapon. First, the wings are very durable as the "feathers" having been replaced with steel like blades. This allows for defense, as well as offense. Moreover, the user is able to shed feathers which allows him to manually wield the blades that our shed, as well as attack with them. The shedded blades grow back. Moreover, (although this isn't a magical ability) the sheer size of the wings allows X to create powerful gusts of wind by beating his wings to keep enemies at bay. More details on his actual ability is listed below.
  
  Shed:
  Art of 10: The user can control 10 shedded blades at a time. One in each hand, and eight mentally.
  
  Art of 100-The special ability of Bad Omen allows for the blades that X is currently wielding to break down even further, revealing that the blades themselves are comprised of smaller, paper thin, feathers. However, these feathers are extremely sharp. An innumerable amount of feathers can be used to defend, or attack; however, given their size, a collective amount of blades can be utilized for other creative purposes such as floating platforms, bridges, etc. What may look like a mass of darkness, is essentially a death trap used to corner the enemy. Because the blades are extremely light, they move at a +200 speed of the user's phys stat when in this state. Essentially, they sacrificed individual strength for a collective gain.
  
  Art of 1000-X sacrifices his ability to fly in order to breakdown all the blades within this weapon to tiny, sharp feathers capable of dicing up the enemy with greater numbers. It is worthy to note this is all the same ability; however, it just costs more mana to activate each one.
  Art of 1,000,000: Locked

  DOUBLE OR NOTHING
  After honing the phys, and magical aspects of his body, X has gained the ability to utilize two abilities at once. In certain cases, this might provide minute changes from the summoned weapons original form. With a greater mana cost paid, X initiates a second dice roll and summons any weapon according to it's dice roll. Should the number return as the number he is currently using, he enters the lightning round. He gets a third dice roll. Should he roll the same number again, Jackpot initiates and he can choose his weapon. If not, he simply uses the weapon summoned on the 3rd roll.
  
  Special Circumstances:
  Dual wield weapons like Eclipse, and Virtue/Verdict will be cut down to one weapon, (the same holds true for the others.)
  Alexander: When utilized in a double or nothing situation, X is no longer is confined to the summoned throne. Moreover, should he enter Alexander's true form under these conditions, Alexander can utilize the abilities of those weapons, albeit on a larger scale although this drains mana exponentially.
  
  
  HOUSE RULES
  
  

  Spoiler

  BARRED
  He cannot use weapons that are not marked with the insignia of Lady Luck's armory while it is active. Using such weapons causes him great pain to the point he has to release them immediately. The opposite holds true as well. No one else may use or manipulate the weapons in X's magical armory; however, Telekinetic and others with the power to move physical objects by any means may use them. However, It should be specified that these are also mana constructs and should be treated as such.
  
  ALL IN
  Xixix cannot roll again until the next day. Whatever weapon is chosen by the dice is active for that entire day.
  
  JACKPOT
  If his last 3 rolls have all been the same number, he can then choose his weapon without having to roll.

  
  General Abilites:
  Physical aptitude, close combat prowress, strategic.
  
  Weaknesses/Drawbacks:
  It is a strange ability to say the least. One could argue that he could have the potential to be Ace...that is if he was able to access all of his abilities whenever he wanted. The most glaring drawback is that he can't use more than one ability at one time. Even if he has an ability that fits perfectly for the situation he is in, he only has a 1/10 chance of getting it. Second the weapons have, for the most part, one essential function. Most relying on his own natural aptitude in combat while other enemies have multiple ways to take you down. In other words his abilities are more spread out even though he has many to choose from. Moreover he has to be more strategic, creative, adaptable and skilled to bring out the best of his ability despite of its drawbacks.

  RELATIONSHIPS
  "If you've managed to actually piss me off, you're probably dead."​
  
  IRIS: Almost a brother and sister kinda thing. She helps him, and he pisses her off. He happened to meet her at a bar while she was complaining about her place in life. After he became King, he remembered her...well her abilites and put them to good use to running the kingdom.
  
  DECLAN: After he helped him with gun research, he realized he was a kindred spirit. A fellow trouble maker indeed.
  
  WYSTERIA: Too complicated to put into words.
  
  GUINEVERRE: Mirror distance relationship. She clearly can hardly contain herself around X and often speaks in code because of her trouble expressing her feelings. Their first date was before the war when she wanted to discuss "plans".
  
  WILLIAM: He's a big fat liar with pants that are indeed on fire.
  
  KAIDEN: Met him briefly, he was stalking X during the war for some reason.
  
  ATHANIA: She barely met him but she has yet to respond to the IOU that was posted on her forehead after he saved her from falling debris.

  MISC.
  
  "Good luck brave Pigeon."​
  
  Messy Eater: X eats pretty much everything with his hands. Unwilling to take off his mask, he drinks through it and often slips food into it before chewing.
  
  The Best Bad Liar: X is a horrible liar, but he is capable of saying the most absurd things with a straight face. It almost makes you wonder if he is telling the truth....so is he a good liar?
  
  Dry Eyes: X hasn't cried since birth.
  
  They Suck: If you ask him, he will tell you that the heart's air force is subpar.
  
  Good Luck Charm: Having been extremely fond of the city, Erylon, X took over the casino their and made several changes until it became the most famed Casino in all of Club Country. This is in part for his reputation. (Gamblers are a big fan of his), his being a King, and the fact that the city loves entertainment to a fault.
  
  ZERO: X established a black ops organization of low ranking mages who partake in missions that do not necessarily require strength. Things such as intel, exploration, assassination's, framings, cover ups etc all fall in the umbrella of Zero, Even the Club Kingdom is unaware of their existence.
  
  Iris did in fact remind X that he was a King. Although going around buying towns, and the like was annoying, with Iris' help he could manage. One thing you needed in this world was influence and money to make things easier. Moreover, owning towns of his own would give him a place to do what he wants. X currently owns 3 towns within Club Kingdom.

• 
  
  Personality:​
  Jana is a straightforward person with no filter for her words and who acts on emotions ninety-nine times out of a hundred. With no stopper to her temper and an exceedingly self-serving personality, she becomes quite the dislikable individual no matter where she ends up. While she is habitually rude, crude and just plain bitchy, those who can see past her spiky exterior will find a simple idiot. Even with all of her faults, she can be a loyal friend and functional ally once one can find it in themselves to stand by her. Her overconfidence may just be one of her best traits, and she has a soft spot for children after living at the farm for so long.
  
  
  Biography:​
  Jyotiranjana Baila was once the beloved daughter of two sword masters, and as a child, she wielded the blade before she could speak. Then again, her learning disabilities might have also played a role in that. Soon after her fourteenth birthday, both of her parents died in a riding accident and she inherited their school of swordsmanship. Convinced by a conniving neighbour to sell the school, she gave it away for a slice of what it was worth and thought she had cut a great deal. As a pampered daughter that did as she wanted and never looked back, Jana took the payment and gambled it all away.
  
  Once she was flat broke, she got kicked out of the house her parents left her and became a street performer to earn her meals. Her other qualifications were nonexistent and her personality really couldn’t be mentioned in polite company so her only option was self-employment at the time. She joined a circus after a few years of barely getting by for a better working environment and better pay. In the beginning, they had convinced her that she would be rolling in dough if she performed with their troupe, which although sounded doubtful, was very tempting during her dreariest days.
  
  While things were just looking up, she abruptly broke off with the travelling company after a disagreement lit her fuse. And being the spiteful bastard she was, she took that fuse and burned their tent down to smithereens. That, of course, didn’t go so well with the owners and she ended up gaining a bounty to her head.
  
  Running to the Spades kingdom to lose her pursuers, Jana didn’t know she would soon meet an offer that would turn her frown upside down. She bolted to a pub the moment she set foot in Nalore, spent and in a mood to complain about all the woes in her sad, sad life. There, she met Callum, an artifact hunter who listened to her long and distorted epic chronicling her days past without a peep of protest. In a drunken haze, she heard him speak of the amounts artifacts sold for and jumped to the opportunity when he invited her to join him. As part of the introductions, Jana showed off her ability to separate work life and social life by starting a fight with a tavern regular over the matter of incorrect change. Cal was so moved by her occupational ethics that he dragged her out of the place and never took her back.
  
  Now, she shuffles between the four kingdoms with Cal to hunt down any leads to rare artifacts.

  Skills and Abilities:​
  [ Many Ripples Make a Wave ]
  The exploitation of water is one of Jana’s main skills, and with it, she can manipulate any liquid water and tiny particles inside within thirty metres. If there happens to be none or not enough, she can summon waves of saltwater from the closest coast that connects to the sea. If she keen to waste all of her mana, she can form a tsunami or waterspout, though this would be a last-ditch effort in the case that everything else fails. The longer she manipulates water, the quicker the movement of the water can be, rising up to speeds of 1000 m per second, which is enough to cut through sheets of most metals. Homogeneous liquids can be affected by her power if water makes up at least 50%, but her control over those are much less precise.
  
  [ Dance in a Fairy Ring ]
  When Jana dances with or without a partner, small spheres of light similar to a firefly’s glow appear and incircle her. Within fifteen metres of her person, all creatures with the right limbs for the motion are forced to partner up and dance in a ring centred around herself. While the dancers are not blocked from doing anything else, they must have the minimum form of the style she chooses and stay within the circle. Whether the afflicted know how the motions or not, the skill forces their body into basic steps. The dancers' energy is also drained thirty times quicker than normal and the extra potential unneeded for the continuous movement is transferred onto Jana and anyone else she specifies. The skill lasts as long as she continues dancing or until fifteen minutes have come to pass.
  
  Once she stops dancing or the time is up, everyone in the ring gains a three-minute magic slowdown. The rate at which the affected can cast is influenced by the overall mana capacity, so someone with an extremely large store of mana may only have a minuscule increase in casting time and vice versa. Using this skill in a period of eight hours from the last usage will double the mana cost.
  
  [ Slight Step to Recovery ]
  The number of steps the recipient of this skill has taken in the past hour determines the speed at which their wounds will heal. This ability only amplifies and quickens the receiver's natural healing capability by the number of footfalls they have taken and will not realign broken bones or regrow hacked off limbs. Pain from the restoration is not relieved, so whatever wound the cast-upon has will hurt much more than if they had naturally waited for it to heal. Within a day, the total amount of time spent on this skill can only add up to at most three minutes.
  
  [ Swordsmanship and Other Sword Arts ]
  She has some basic knowledge of wielding all sorts of short blades and is absurdly experienced in the dagger. Jana is also excellent with a sword in hand and literally spell blinding at sword dancing (when her talwars' special effects work, at least).
  
  [ Classical and Street Dance Competency ]
  From waltzes to foxtrots to ribbon dances and polkas, she has dabbled in them all. Her dance skills are simply a leisure pursuit, with no teachings from actual dancers or professional expertise.
  
  
  Gear:​
  [ Relic, Name Pending ]
  This shiny new sabre may be a relic of modern times, but it works better than many recent designs, so she could care less about the style.
  
  [ Assorted Daggers, Short Blades and Small Weaponry ]
  On her person is currently a somewhat chipped ornamental dagger stolen from a wealthy landowner, a pair of brass knuckles found in an alley, and two thin dirks engraved with fish-like creatures and warped lions. She switches her weapons and gets new ones fairly easily, so what Jana has now may not be what she has in a few weeks.
  
  [ Mirage and Oasis ]
  Twin talwars made of questionable steel and bought cheaply from a dubious vendor. They used to have longer names, but Jana found them troublesome and pretentious, so they’ve been shortened to what it is now. They used to be props for her dance performances but now that she doesn’t perform anymore, they’re restricted to being dangerous-looking decor. Colourful flame effects are supposed to appear when she waves them around, though they frequently malfunction and spurt smoke instead. Mirage and Oasis are weak to force and definitely not for combative use.
  
  [ Kismet the Fortune Cat ]
  Kismet is a porcelain statuette of a cat with five eyes, one on the forehead, two on the face, one on the chest and the last on the tip of the tail. When mana is poured into the figurine, the one who inserted it can pull the tail to draw a paper fortune out of the cat's mouth. The recipient can acquire anything from great luck to great misfortune. There are seven fortunes one can pull out, each giving a different possible outcome the nearest future events.
  
  Jana gave it its name as a child. Gifted by her parents on her sixth birthday, it originally was meant to be a child's toy.
  
  [ The Suit ™ ]
  "The suit's a fine finish, composed purely of natural plant fibers from the one of a kind Yisstra's Grove. The Quality is a whopping 750 stat, easily enduring the bite of a bear. Complementing the suit's mere quality is its base Kinetic Energy enchantment, able to deflect physical attacks onto opponents of up to 750 stats. A simple 300 Sound Masking enchantment was also infused to provide a seamless quiet experience when trekking through even the roughest of lands. Aura Concealment follows up at a 700 stat, achieving nearly full coverage of the wearer's current 680 mana stat. Then the finishing touch. To top it all off, the contributor paired a Magic Resistance enchantment valued at 500 to ensure the safety of his crew."

  Relationships:​
  [ Callum Mallard ]
  “Cal? He’s my partner-in-crim—I mean, my partner. He’s a better guy than I'll ever be—don't you dare tell him I said that—but too uptight sometimes. He also doesn’t like putting too much in my hands, the cheapskate.”
  
  [ Kaiden Alderidge ]
  "Kaiden, huh? He’s a pretty entertaining dude, for someone that ran off to the military. But he's also smart. Too smart."
  
  [ Sera ]
  “Sera, hm. Sweet thing, good at shooting annoyances and general beat ups. She’s a good niece.”
  
  
  Additional:​
  Jana is an avid gambler with absolutely no luck or skill at the game, and she has a particular love for cold, hard cash.

​

Name: Leolin Hravart III
Titles:
Ace of Flirts, Flushe Hunter, Hot Stuff

Age: 32
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Rank: Ace
Subrankings: 12400/4600 at noon; 3100/1150 at midnight
Affiliations: Hearts

Personality:
It used to take a lot to wipe the smile off Leo’s face. War on his soil and the Royal Flushe achieved that in a hurry, with lasting results. He takes his duties VERY seriously, safeguarding the people from poor decisions made by other nobles and terrorists. The burden of the people weighs heavily on him, so he shoulders it and does his best to be their white knight. He used to enjoy roaming the streets of the capital, having beer with the men and tea with the ladies. The destruction of Corda still haunts him five years after the fact.

Leo refuses to undress unless he is bathing in a tub of his choosing or sleeping in a bed with fresh sheets. He fears what he might discover by an act as simple as walking around barefoot or handling an antique without gloves. He wishes he could live in blissful ignorance, but once he discovers something unsavory, it’s difficult for him to forget and simply mind his own business. However, he has grown more accustomed to using his clairsentient powers to find information he wants, and has become less hesitant to read suspected liars.

One thing incurs his wrath above all else: apathy. He is normally not one to hold a grudge, but failure to act when people’s livelihoods and lives are at stake is enough to provoke him. He harbors a deep-seated vendetta against the Royal Flushe; those who have the means to aid in destroying them but refuse are held in ill regard. Aside from that, it’s not difficult to please him; he enjoys the little things. While he is well-learned, he feels his best decisions were based on instinct; he values intuition over logic, since there are things in the world that seemingly defy the latter.

Backstory:
The product of a long line of powerful mages, Leolin III was a strange exception. Kinder and less serious than previous aces, it seemed unlikely for him to succeed early-on. His mother died when he was a teenager. His cold, callous father and namesake—and also the Ace of Hearts at that time—often made cutting remarks that ultimately kicked off a long and bitter feud. The ace was also revealed to have been the one behind the extermination of the Y Blanca family. Training with Guineverre—the sole survivor of that massacre—the two promised to deliver retribution for the ace’s horrific misdeeds. It was ultimately Leolin III who defeated his father by a narrow margin.

Eleven years have passed since then. Leo has fought tirelessly to stop two major threats to his people: the Argossian invasion forces and the Royal Flushe. Working closely with Guin and Twig, they have created a nigh-unstoppable unified force. Having discovered their secrets, he also started supporting the Jokers in secret, though he isn’t entirely in the loop...

Abilities:
Forbidden Sun - Leolin’s signature magic is his pyromancy. He has full control over fire and can ignite most flammable objects—including humans—with one look. Those are the basics, however; more powerful spells can heat metal or even glass beyond its melting point, ignite gunpowder, or create earth-shaking explosions from nothing. More gentle and precise applications include cauterizing wounds, branding flesh with his insignia, and welding metal. This ability’s strength most greatly waxes and wanes with the sun’s position in the sky, reaching full power at midday, but weakens to fit Leo’s actual base power at midnight.

Death Penalty - A fusion spell that can only be cast with the help of Guineverre Y Blanca, Queen of Hearts. Combining his pyromancy and her dysidia magic, they can spew an eerie black fire that corrupts the soul and causes rapid decay. The target’s draining mana simply adds fuel, putting powerful casters at greater risk.

Renewal - “If you hit me, you’d better kill me.” These are Leo’s famous words, and for good reason. The magic permeating his body grants him superhuman heat resistance, meaning he can simply burn most toxins with little consequence. He can also regenerate when wounded, making for astounding comebacks at the brink of death. The only way to to permanently kill him is to completely destroy his heart or brain.

Thermal Vision - Leolin’s eyes can alter themselves to find people and objects by their heat signatures. In this state, his eyes glow a fiery red, and he can spot a human heat signature from a distance other mages are still trying to calculate. In some cases, he also uses this to bolster his intimidation factor.

Clairsentience - This power makes Leolin a ‘human lie detector’ of sorts, though it has some obvious drawbacks, in his opinion. By making bare-skin contact, he can learn more about a person, a place, or an object. It is for this reason that he keeps most of his skin covered. He can gather the most information about a person, such as their emotional state, intentions, surface thoughts, and even recent memories. During the daytime, he even has a degree of precognition.

Gear:
Hot Poker - An enchanted rapier with a humorous name. It has a higher heat tolerance than mundane steel, so Leolin can safely heat the blade enough to sear clean through a foe.

Amé - An ornate scimitar Leolin carries along with his rapier. There is nothing remarkable about it, aside from the beautiful engravings. It was a gift from the people to commemorate his victory over his father, the previous Ace of Hearts. He cherishes this item above all others.

Chaos skulls - A pair of nondescript skulls. When mana is passed through them, each skull manifests an ethereal body of equal physical prowess to the user. Additionally, each skull gains the ability to cast one magic that belongs to the user. Magic being used by a skull cannot be wielded by the user simultaneously. The skulls follow basic commands and demanifest after taking enough damage. Leo keeps his possession of these a secret, and only regularly carries them in a bag when hunting the Flushe.

Winged Boots - Enchanted footwear made to withstand the force of Leolin’s cannon jump technique. Aside from being uncannily durable, they also benefit from magic that allows him to glide or float down so he doesn’t hit the ground with a grotesque ‘splat’.

Book of Grievances - An ordinary logbook listing all the problems in Hearts. It’s nearly full...

Relationships:
Guineverre Y Blanca - Guin is like a sister to Leo. He often studies magic with her and knows the vast majority of her secrets. Dedicated to happiness and equality, they both turn a blind eye to anything illicit they may do for their shared cause.

Zephyr Terwilliger - Twig is another close friend, also like family to the lonely ace. Leo turns to him for answers when a matter is completely baffling—be it a magical or medical mystery. A similar case to Guin, Leolin plays dumb or cooks up a convincing lie if Twig is “nowhere to be found”.

Arimand Dornwell - Leolin tends to bring out the worst in Ari, usually because of their polar-opposite methods—namely, sheer improvisation and intuition versus extensive planning. Regardless, Leo is always there when it counts, especially after a certain incident involving the Ace of Diamonds during the Battle of Valencia.

  Personality:
  Melody is a laid back girl who is mainly interested in tinkering. However, she can be a little feisty when bothered or if someone makes comments on her height. Melody is also rather tomboyish. She likes to explore and wear men's clothing instead of 'restricting' dresses. Her manners are somewhat limited to strangers. However, she warms up quickly when her trust is gained. Also, Melody often shorthands words and comes up with odd names for her inventions.
  
  Appearances:
  Human/with weapon form-
  
  
  Dog form-
  
  
  

• Background/Relationships
• Abilities/Experience and Gear

• 
  Melody was born into a notably large demon cult group. While her parents were great followers of the cult, Mel wasn't as devoted. Since birth, Melody was raised to be a sacrificial lamb for a contractional sacrifice. At the age of coming, her heart and blood would be sacrificed to a demon.
  
  Mel was pampered and taught demonology by scholars of the group. Her first attendance of sacrifice was when she was the age of 6. After seeing an innocent civilian being gutted before her eyes, she realized that she didn't want to die.
  
  Melody devised a plan to escape from the cult. Both her parents were talented mages in fire manipulation. The inheritance of the ability to use fire magick quickly came in handy when practicing fire spells. She disguised her practice of magic as wanting to be a more desirable offering to the demon. When she wasn't watched like a hawk, Mel sketched plans of her escape during the night. She planned to disrupt the ritual at the moment the blade is about to pierce her chest. This would backfire on those performing the ceremony, but also on her. Forgoing the possibility of own her death, she continued with her plan.
  
  At the age of 12, Mel was prepped for the alter. A big opening ceremony was held with her being the center of attention. It was the last time she would be up close to her parents. Deep into the woods, the sacrifice is where it was held. With her back on the alter, Mel was ready for her risky move. As the cult chanted, Mel gathered the majority of her mana and let a stream of fire across the ceremonial grounds. A burning sensation had fallen upon her chest as she did a split. Upon running away from the cult members, Melody started to transform into a dog. While unfortunate, Mel made do with the body and dashed into a city far away, leaving the site in flames.
  
  In a market place, Mel looked for an opportunity to steal food. There weren't many mana sensitives or people who care who would understand her dog yipping. However, after unsuccessful tries of food stealing and whining, Melody was able to catch the attention of an old weapons maker. Upon hearing her remarks, the old man, Mr. Fireheart, takes Melody into his home.
  
  In a month, the older man was able to get Melody's mostly human form back with the help of a talented mage. Melody acquired an enchanted collar that would help her shapeshift into both forms with ease. In return for the help, Mel decided to work for the older man. His business had more activity due to the ongoing war, and he needed support due to his growing age. Over time, Mel developed her weapons skills and took a keen interest in tinkering. In current days, she advertises her inventions at market places across the Diamond kingdom.
  
  Relationships: Parents- Melody is unsure of her parents' whereabouts. She rather not know. However, Melody still somewhat cares about them even if she was seen no more than a sacrificial lamb.
  Mr.FIreheart- An old kind man who owns a weapons-making business. He took Melody under his wing and taught her metal manipulation as well as weapons-making skills.
  Cult: Melody hasn't had contact with the cult since her escape. She doubts that they will be happy to see her if she ever encounters them again.
  
• 
  Abilities:
  Fire Bending: Fire bending is the main magicks used by Melody. Mel can manipulate open fires, as well as convert her mana into fire. Mel can puff out a burst of fire for up to 15 seconds. This is mostly used for heating metals when making weapons, but it is also used for offensive measures.
  
  Metal manipulation: Mel can bend and shape metals. She can especially shape metals that are weak or when they are heated up. Mel mainly uses this ability in weapons-making and tinkering. Stationary or slow-moving metal objects are more straightforward targets of this spell. It takes a lot of concentration to manipulate harder metals.
  
  Shapeshifting: Shapeshift- Mel can shift into a dog. While in this form, she can only be understood by those with mana sensitive souls. Mel is mostly unable to use magic in this form. However, she can spurt small bursts of fire compared to a lighter. Also, she can communicate with dogs and other distant relatives of the species. Mel will maintain the same dog senses in both human and dog forms. These senses include sensitive hearing and smell along with increased speed.
  
  Experience: Melody has little war experience. She did protect her family's home from a few low-ranking Agrossian raiders. Occasionally, she has fought magical using thugs and thieves on the outskirts of her home town.
  
  Gear:
  Metal Claws- One of Mel's inventions. It's a set of large metal claws built with very light but durable metal. Melody uses fire magic to create a firey claw attack. [Look up to appearances to see weapon}
  Tool pouch- A pouch that is strapped around her waist that carries her tinkering tools.
  Enchanted collar- A collar enchanted by a talented mage to make Mel's shapeshifting easy. Small amounts of mana are regularly taken to ensure that Mel stays in the form she wishes. Without such a collar, Mel would likely be stuck in her dog form

• 
  
  
  Personality:
  Sera is a generally a happy-go-lucky girl with a festive attitude towards most that she meets, while keeping a reserved self when her origins is questioned. She is a progressive personnel that advocates personal liberties, but can prove to be a clingy and inquisitive creature at times. While often perceived to be a docile and easygoing person, Sera can be quite stubborn at times. She has a habit of studying people and has a tendency of a thousand-yard stare at times. This, in addition to her ardent admiration of arts and aesthetics, makes her an astute person when it comes to details. Sera keeps to herself a certain gloom after being left for dead at the Siege of Valencia. Instead of wallowing in her own grievances and abandonment at the hands of her superiors, Sera dons a carefree facade as she traversed the kingdoms for the last five years seeking to cope in. Even so, the wolf can bear fangs when threatened or undergoing stress. Sera can show her softer side when one bribes her with food and headpats.
  
  Her personal beliefs as an Argossian in the aftermath of the conflict's end was "anti-climatic change of pace". She harbors little to no hatred for her once enemies, simply going about it as "an evil necessity of a cause". She believed that she had served the Empire without shame, and that their defeat was a humbling experience. As one trapped in the wake of the Imperial withdrawal, on hostile soils, Sera had hoped that her dictionary was enough to get by the day with the locals. Beneath her smiles, however, resided a certain enmity for herself, and the sorrows of a battle-hardened soldier that is trying to cope with a civilian life with no goals whatsoever. A tired, but resilient wolf, in search of her destined pack. The fateful place where she felt like she belonged there.
  
  Backstory:
  A cadet at the Imperial Military Youth Institution, Sera is one of the few gifted in the field that earned her a promising future as a commissioned officer. Despite this, she chose to enlist from the bottom to experience the world. An orphan for as long as she could remember, the Imperial Legion quickly became her foster family, and eventually her fellow service members as her brothers and sisters. Sera passed for Ranger selection, and quickly followed up with a high score, despite her enlisted status at the time. The young soldier scored a high percentile in marksman class and was plucked from her group for weapons support training, where she would hone her skill with an anti-materiel rifle. She had spent her time training and learning at Fort Marx until her unit was to be deployed. Unbeknownst to Sera, her entire life on record thus far was fabricated, due to her generation's defective shortcomings. Rather than being scrapped for less than the Empire's initial investments, the homunculus was embedded in the Rangers.
  
  
  
  Among the fresher faces to be shipped overseas, Sera accompanied the Ninth Dismounted Ranger replacements in the initial skirmishes. Having proven herself on the field, she was promoted to corporal and was given command of her own fireteam. As the years pass her by, the corporal made her marks as a simple weapons specialist. She earned the nickname "The Golem Slayer of Black Forest" after destroying over five hundred golems within a night, despite being stretched thin of manpower due to the rapid advance of her unit's vanguard. The height of her service career was at the Battle of Hill 712, where she made her stand alongside her detachment to hold a strategic high ground that oversaw most of the valley below. What was supposed to be a long-range patrol culminated in one of the most intense firefight of her tour thus far. Shrapnel from the rocky mountain made short work of the attackers and the defenders. Yet despite the prolonged sporadic combat, the psychological effects for both the Argossians and the Suits were detrimental. After an entire week of reinforcements pouring in and out of the base of the hill, neither side were willing to give up the prized position. Sera's detachment suffered an eighty-percentile casualty rate with replacements coming in almost every day. By the time the Argossians had taken the hill, Sera was the only one left, out of the original fifty-nine Rangers. It was not long before she herself was tossed over by a golem that took her arm right off. While she managed to destroy the golem, Sera had to be taken off the field after sustaining heavy blood loss.
  
  Sera eventually came to, and was augmented with a prosthetic arm for her efforts in taking Hill 712. After a recuperation period, she returned to active duty and would go on to participate in a series of skirmishes that slowly takes its toll on her. By the time she was made a sergeant, Sera was far from the patriot she once was. Yet despite her worn out strength and sleepless nights, the young girl refuses to come home without seeing the war through. A resolute ideal burnt within her, one that would see her supposed demise at the Siege of Valencia. It was there that she witnessed first hand the chaotic beauty and holy destruction of both side's prowess. Technologies met magic. Minds met swords. The bells had surely tolled for the routing Argossians. Sera was one of the few fortunate enough to be able to open her eyes. She found herself in the heart of the enemy's territory, with no friendly presence. There, she resolved to survive, living off the land by foraging and hunting, all the while avoiding the Suits. Weeks become months, and eventually, Sera was beginning to hope for the worse. Sera had hoped to link up with her unit, or at least find a friendly metalback. A swift, but sudden revelation caught her standing on a hill and looked beyond the empty azure horizon. Her country had left her behind, with its riding crops a hundred miles trying to keep up. A lonely Argossian with no possible way to return home. Even if she could commandeer a vessel, there was no saying if she would be successful to cross the vast ocean without proper cartography and experience in sailing. Should she be captured, Sera would be sold into slavery. It was there and then, at the bottom of the barrel scraping for hope, Sera fell asleep beneath an olive tree. Perhaps years of constant fighting and restlessness have caught up with her disillusioned state of mind. It mattered little, as the wolf was finally able to partake in the long slumber that she earned. The next five years would see a certain Argossian ghost dragging themselves from one end of the continent to the other. In search of shelter, of hope, and of purpose.
  
  Abilities:
  [Yl Fenca Argossya - Kite Form]
  Sera practices the Kite Form of the Yl Fenca Argossya, moving around a lot to dodge attacks, measuring her opponent's pattern of strikes before following up with a series of consecutive counter-attacks. Her form is still rigid, making her keen on swift strikes rather than fully "kiting" her opponent over a long period of time. Sera prioritizes the quickest action to disarm or neutralize her opponents on a short clock, but does not push herself to the extent of Spirit Form's doctrine. Sera was taught the Yl Fenca Argossya by her immediate superior officer - Lieutenant Suomi Lahtinen.
  
  [F-Gen Traits]
  Nocturnal vision and keen senses, a part of the Felix Generation of Produced Homunculi. Felix Generation are genetically-mixed amalgamation of wolf and human, binding the enhanced wolf traits with human genomes for recon and extensive survival capabilities. Able to see better in the dark, and possesses a keen nose and ears. Sera's tail tend to stiffen up and pointed upwards when she picks up on a stranger's scent or when natural disasters (earthquake/tornado/volcanic eruption) is impending.

However, it is as resilient as its spare parts, and requires tuning every now and then.

  "For once, could you at least pretend to care?"​
  
  She has been described as being a bit too uptight. She hardly ever goofs off and even at a young age it wouldn't have been strange to think she was just a nanny who never had children of her own. She takes pride in her professionalism, ability to plan things out, and punctuality and almost detests anyone who doesn't do the same. Because she has had to claw her way to even achieve her current rank she is a workaholic and finds it difficult to relax. This gives her a bit of a chip on her shoulder since she is always ready to prove others wrong even if it is the result of a fabricated slight on her ability. She becomes flustered when things do not go as planned and although she usually overcomes setbacks she does have doubts about being a worthy mage let alone royal.
  She can be cynical and pessimistic despite her aspirations; however, she is not unkind. She will almost always honor her debts and will never forget those who have been kind to her. Despite her hardened and serious demeanor she has a soft spot for cute things. Calling her out on it will only fluster her even more.
  
  However, after working with probably the most difficult person in all of existence she has begun to soften a little. She is still a workalhoic, but she is more likely to relax. Morever, she has slowy gained a bit of confidence over the past few years.

  BACKSTORY​
  Under different circumstances she would have made a great politician, or an elected official; however, fate had other things in mind. She came from a family line that possessed great power. No one in their bloodline had ever been ranked below a 7 and this was coupled with their high social status. However, once Iris discovered her abilities, she was seen as a black sheep due to her low ranking magic (rank 2 at the time). Her magic was not lethal, nor was it highly ranked among support magic (particularly in battle). To gain the good graces of her family she poured her all into studying and improving her mind by using both her magic and her natural intellect to no avail. Despite her many efforts to prove herself worthy of the family name, she could never compete with a fire breather, a rock crusher, or a water gusher. If one were to highlight her intellect alone, she would be considered a prodigious talent. By the age of 14, albeit with the help of her magic, she was well versed in law, tactics, business. Those subjects in particular could help make her a great royal; however, she was still far too weak to even mention such a dream without being scoffed at. Despite her intellectual gains, she remained relatively unnoticed. Now she has furthered her intellectual spectrum by studying history, geography, and science.
  
  After the royal tournament, which she failed to sneak into, she ran into X at a bar. He was complaining about becoming the King. Honestly the nerve of some people. Here was this man, who was living out her dream of being one of the 3 royals, and he had the nerve to not only complain, but drink it off as some cause for depression. Iris was drowning her sorrows because of the exact opposite reason. Choosing to ignore the foolish brat, Iris angrily flipped through the pages of her favorite books while X continued to get shitfaced. Of course X asked her if she had a paper cut fetish which brought her back to the real world. (She had gotten so used to her methods of reading that she forgot that it was uncommon.) After reluctantly explaining her abilities to the strange man, she was surprised when X called it a terrifying ability. At first she thought he was being an ass, but after prodding him further his words appeared to be genuine. Out of all the people who had entered her life this drunken idiot was the first to acknowledge her abilities, although she wouldn't say her abilities were anywhere near terrifying. X took it a step further and hired her as his personal assistant. She wasn't sure how valid the words of a half drunken King was, but this was a small step toward her end goal.
  
  Of course when she showed up to work the next day X claimed to have never met the woman in his life. However, once she explained her abilities again X pretty much had the same reaction after admitting he did remember some chick coming on to him at a bar. After an actual job interview which consisted of X "testing her" with a few "practice documents" she became his personal assistant.
  
  Battle of Valencia-She hadn't performed as well as she would have liked during the war; however, it was a great experience for her. To her surprise, X brought her along to the greatest battle of their lifetime. His reasoning, she would be dead anyway if they had lost. It was here that she met Arimand, Guin, and many other important people. To her surprise, she wasn't treated as horribly as she thought she would be, and was even placed to work with Ari as he took command. During most of the war, she leaned on Arimand for guidance, and he protected her on more than one occasion. Eventually, he was forced to leave and Iris had to command a portion of the army on her own. Since it was during the waning period of the war, she performed amicably and managed to stay alive. After the war, she had doubts on if she was ready to make in impact in the Club Kingdom despite the fact that was her first time on a battlefield.

  ABILITIES:
  ​
  Literacy Manipulation
  Iris has the ability to instantly read and understand any form of literature simply by touching its pages/medium, even if it is in an uncommon language. This includes maps. This allows her to sort paperwork, conduct research, and study at an exponential pace. This is even helpful for works that have aged over time, making them difficult to read by normal means. Under the influence of her mana she can repair these works of literature to their prime form. She can even make edits (ex inserting/deleting words, font etc) to the works in question.
  
  Calm's Blessing
  After training for a year, she has gained the ability to "read" inanimate objects. It's a fairly abstract ability; however, the gist is that by turning this objects into a book, she can read through the history of a said object. It can reveal information on how it came to be, or reveal anything that came into contact with the object. It can be extremely useful for archeological/scientific purposes.
  
  Instant Messaging
  Iris has the ability to craft a special piece of paper that she calls, Ka. This allows for communication between her and anyone of her choosing no matter the distance. However, this communication only works if you are contacting her since she can only open the channel for you to write and receive messages with her ability. Each crafted item is special and unique to the user since she needs the mana of the person in question to create it. A byproduct of this ability, due to the nature of its composition, is that the paper acts as a mana tracker; moreover, she can somewhat sense the condition of the person in question. (If someone dies the paper crumbles to pieces.
  
  General Abilities:
  Photographic Memory, Supreme Intellect, good cook.
  Battle
  She can wield a sword better than the average person but don't expect her to be a samurai.

  H-Hi it's nice to meet you....Wysteria suffers from multiple personality disorder and currently houses 3 personalities. Wysteria is cunning, cold, and calculating. She is not afraid to use less than honorable methods to achieve her goals and has little trust, or respect for anyone other than herself. She is ruthless and would not bat an eye at even the most gruesome sights. This is her base, or primary persona. Wendy, that's me, was created after she had escaped the dungeon. One could say I represent her innocence. I'm shy and I hate getting in trouble I often advise that Wysteria take the more righteous, self sacrificing path. I'm a friend to all, and sensitive to emotions of others as well as her own. I take pleasure in doing favors for others and I'm really childlike. Wuu is dangerous...

  BACKSTORY​
  Wysteria's birth would have been celebrated by most households; Let m- however, her birth destroyed her family. At birth Wysteria's mana reserves were abnormally high. In fact, they were much higher than the next official heir of their noble family. Needless to say, due to optics and politics they quickly made efforts to bury her existence. They did not kill her, for they could always utilize a potential powerful resource, but until such a time transpired she would be locked away in an underground dungeon as if she was a monster. She spent most of her childhood isolated from the world and her family. Servants would come to provide her with whatever food was leftover, as well as teach her the basics. Unfortunately, several experiments were also carried out to test the limits of her abilities. One servant, Eren, who was only a few years older than Wysteria befriended her. He would often sneak full meals, tell her stories of the outside world, and commend her on her strength. He became a mentor, and good friend. In fact, this was the only time she really began to question the kind of life that she lived. As time continued to pass they eventually hatched a plan to run away and disappear once and for all, but that would prove futile.
  
  Despite her isolation, the feeling of inadequacy never -me left her father, who was now considerably weaker than his chained up daughter. Eventually, his perceived inferiority overwhelmed him to the point of obsession. Not willing to kill his own daughter, mainly for his own selfish reasons, he decided to seek other ways to become stronger. This included research on dysidia. He began to dabble in the forbidden, malevolent magic in order to increase his power. A day before Wysteria and Eren planned their escape, her father attempted a spell he could not control. The LET- entire estate was turned to ruin...save for Wysteria. YOU B****-, Her family, the servants, Eren HAHA all became denizens of the dead, unable to live and unable to die. Free from the mental chains her father cast upon her she continued to wait...bound by the chains of a newfound friendship unaware of what became of him. It was during this time that W-Grwgeigswf was born. To adjust to the isolation, pain, and denial of neglect, she created Wuu. Nevertheless, even this defense mechanism wasn't enough to stop her body from succumbing to her lack of proper nutrients. She began to deteriorate with the faith that Eren would come for her. -IN bueibgieb was reported that she remained in that cell for 4 months. Eventually, mages took care of the zombie incident before it spread to far. They did not find Wysteria, but not too long after this event, Wuu took ov-REMEMBER and escaped. There was nothing left.
  
  Wysteria managed to survive on her own before wandering to a nearby city. Once the citizens saw her condition she was immediately placed in a hospital. Later, it was quickly discovered that she possessed immense mana although it had no direction, or form. With any guidance she could very well be a competent mage, likely nothing less than a seven once her full potential was achieved. She was unsure of what to do with her life, and the mages did not know exactly what to do either. Since she had no documented past, and no one else to take care of her she was taken in by an older, veteran mage who became her teacher. He knew she had the potential to be talented, but her growth surpassed all expectations. After finding out what spells she had an affinity for she quickly developed her magic and sharpened this sword overtime. Her magic was practically harmless at first and she was no more than a rank 2 once she finally joined the rank of the mages. However, her growth was faster than anyone could have expected as she quickly rose through the ranks. Eventually, she achieved a rank 9 by the age of 16. The remaining years of her life was spent learning new spells, and better ways to utilize her existing spells. During this time her mentor would pass due to natural causes but she would continue to fulfill her potential regardless of his status. In fact, she felt nothing at the time of his death. Her motivations for living still remained, power and revenge. Revenge on the world that allowed her to be born. This is my story.
  
  Valencia
  Wysteria helped X during much of the war. Originally, she cared very little for what was happening and couldn't fathom why X brought her to the battle. After personally being requested by X, to come and aid him she began to pull her weight. However, a condition was set so that she would be able to duel X after the war should she help him.
  
  Post War
  She would duel X and afterward she would be charged with working with the Navy Captain and the Four Leaf Fleet. She trained at sea, intervening whenever necessary against some of the stronger pirates out at sea. Her skill set would be a huge boost on naval battlefields. With the help of the navy, she would begin searching for Storm Caller at X's request.

Alaric is scarred from the wounds that he has taken for others over the years. They cover his whole body, there are so many that they cover each other, and a few ghastly ones cover his face. Few who knew him in his early years would recognize him now, with only his abilities and the forlorn look in his eyes remain unchanged.

Appearance: 40 Age:27 (Vol 1.5)
Appearance: 47 Age:30 (Vol 3)
Appearance: 55 Age:35 (Vol 4)

Race:
Human

Sex:
Male

Personality:
Alaric is honest, he does what he says hes going to do and expects others to follow suit. Broken promises haunt him, and he does everything he can to keep his word. He's also honorable, and does his best to do what is right, but life isn't black and white, its grey, and he's made some mistakes along the way. He tends to be self-sacrificing, with his abilities he feels like its his duty to keep those alive that he can protect from death. This has caused him immense amounts of pain, whether the person lives or dies. If they live, he experiences the pain of their tragic demise, but if they die, he blames himself. With his abilities he should be able to protect them, so why wasn't he able to. As history would have it, Alaric's control over his Life-Link ability hasn't always been as stable as it is now, and when he needed it the most, it wasn't there.

Backstory: WIP
Alaric grew up in a small hamlet, deep in Heart territory. It was quiet there all his life, and he would have continued his simple life there, if not for his Life-Link ability. At the young age of five, Alaric's younger brother was trampled by horses. It had been an accident, the herd had gotten spooked. By what, nobody knew. But the crazy thing was, the boy was fine. Sure he was scared, but physically he was fine. Then everyone noticed the broken form of Alaric, lying beside the fence he had been perched on where he had watched the whole thing happen. He had passed out from the pain, a multitude of his bones broken. He hadn't known yet that he had the ability, he had only wanted so desperately to protect his younger brother. His parents feared for him, tried to convince him that he had been the one trampled, and for awhile he believed them.

But as the boy aged, more accidents happened to people, and more injuries happened to him. It was easy for the young boy to make the connection. At the tender age of thirteen another incident happened, his brother had been playing in the barn when it caught fire and trapped him inside. Without hesitation, Alaric dove into the flames, fighting the terrible pain and pulled his younger brother from the doomed building. His brother was again, miraculously, fine. But, Alaric had suffered yet again, his body burned beneath his clothing, and he spent many weeks in critical condition recovering. Again his parents tried to convince him that he had been the one caught in the fire, even the village was in on it now, doing what they could to convince him of the lie. He wasn't sure he believed it at the time, but everyone wanted him to believe them, so he did. It wasn't until he was seventeen that he confronted his parents about the lie they had told him. A rabid wolf had ripped through the village, and left a young girl bloodied and dying. Alaric had put the beast down but the damage was done and she didn't last through the night. Alaric had known the young girl well, they were roughly the same age, and they got along well enough. Their parents hoped they would marry, Alaric had hoped for it too. How many people in the village could have been saved if only he had known. How many people didn't have to die. But like all good parents they didn't want to see their child in pain, and they knew that the ability would only bring him pain. So out of selfishness they had hid it from him, and they told him this. Looking back, he shouldn't have raised his voice. He shouldn't have slammed the door behind him as he took off into the woods that night only to come back to a burnt out village the next day. His family was gone, his home was gone, and he hadn't been there.

Alaric's other abilities were discovered around the same time as his Life-Link ability. His parents didn't deem it necessary to hide these abilities from him because having magical abilities is normal. So they taught him how to use his other abilities, all the while drawing his attention away from his life-link ability. He wields his other abilities with deadly proficiency and believes in honorable combat and is willing to limit himself to produce a fair fight.

Its been ten years since that day now, and Alaric has been spending those years trying to make up for his mistake. He wanders the Heart territory protecting those that he can, all the while hoping that one day he will be able to forgive himself for leaving the village on that fateful night. Because of this he has been dubbed The Wanderer by those that have encountered him. Oftentimes a village will ask him to stay, they tell him that he could be happy in there quaint little town. But he cannot be happy, not yet, there are still people out there that need him.

After the attack on Atria by the Royal Flushe, Alaric went about the Heart countryside quelling terrorist attacks and looking for clues as to where the Royal Flushe had disappeared to. Albeit unsuccessful, he was able to keep the common man safe in his home while the elite of the heart army were away fighting the Argossian threat with the rest of the Suite armies. The constant fighting and protecting of the people has done nothing to slow his accelerated aging and while he continues to try to push through his limits he fears that one day he will start to decline. And, with his decline he fears he will not be able to protect those that would rely on him for protection.

Now it’s been five years since that last fated battle where Alaric disappeared. In shame he hid away for a year, honing his abilities. He had not been there during the climax of the battle and waking to the devastation had wounded him emotionally. After reappearing, he was awarded as a hero by his friend and new King. He was given titles, awards and even a city to manage. He requested a monument to be built to those that lost their lives in the ruined city of Valencia, and has spent the rest of his time devoted to rebuilding the city while strengthening his mind and body with training and schooling. With his new position as the general of the Heart Kingdoms armies, Alaric found himself in a position he wasn’t fully prepared for. He had spent his entire life trying to keep people out of harms way, and even though they were now at peace, he would be leading men into danger now. People would die under his command. He had never realized the pressures of leadership, the struggles commanders went through on the battlefield. It was a somber thought that caused him to dive into tactics with a frenzy. He began reading whatever texts on strategy and warfare that he could obtain while developing strategies where he could rely on his Life-Link ability to keep the soldiers under him safe.

Rank:
10

Affiliation:
Hearts

Abilities:
Life-Link: Can absorb damage dealt to those around him, at the cost of having said damage inflicted upon himself. Damage that would have been inflicted to said persons is instead directly transferred to Alaric. So if a person is slashed with a sword, said slash would appear on his body, though as a rank 9 a mere sword slash would do little actual damage to him. Those of a higher rank than him can dismiss his Life-Link, though he is known to take a dismissal of his powers personal, as if he uses his Life-Link ability on someone, it usually means he is ready to die for that person. A side effect of his ability is that he feels the pain from every wound as it would have been dealt to the person he protected. So if the attack would have killed someone of a lower rank, he feels the pain of dying, which, along with the toll on his body, has lead to his increased aging.

Mutated Life-Link: A weaponized version of his Life-Link ability. Damage dealt to himself is reflected onto others. Does not currently have the ability to do so and will require an RP reason for said mutation.

Increased Durability: Alaric is tougher than most at his rank, being able to take more hits than other rank 10's, though some might attest this to his constant use of his Life-Link ability, which has left his body broken on multiple occasions throughout his life.

Weapon Summoning & Manipulation: Alaric can summon a multitude of weapons to his person, anything he understands is fair game. Along with the summoning he can manipulate seven additional weapons perfectly, adding additional weapons over seven causes him to lose precision and control over said weapons. He wields the additional weapons from a distance as if held. Alaric loses control over the weapons once they travel five meters from his body, but remain up to five minutes after leaving his control, allowing him to telepathically throw weapons across the battlefield. Alaric tends to favor a sword and shield in his hands and seven long swords in the air as he sees it as his most noble set of armaments though he isn't inflexible in his weapon choices though and will pick what suits the situation.

Gravity: Having come into this magic 8 years ago, Alaric has honed this magic carefully. With a touch Alaric can increase or decrease the effect of gravity upon a person or object. He has taken to using this to immobilize those who he wishes to capture to interrogate later by increasing gravity on them or blasting opponents away by decreasing the effect of gravity on them while striking them. The effect only lasts as long as he remains in contact with the object or individual he is affecting.

Gear:
Wields a long sword etched in runes, the runes describe the history of the blades owner and are magically enchanted to add to the story as his life goes on.

Relationships:
Cassius Bellarmont: The current King of the Hearts kingdom started as a respectable Queensguard that Alaric fought alongside in multiple conflicts over the years. He recognized the young man as an honorable and trustworthy brother on the battlefield and while he had thought about pursuing the Crown again, he is pleased with the current King and is loyal to the crown.

Guineverre Victoria y Blanca: The Queen of the Hearts kingdom, Alaric has much respect for her and how she has carried the hearts kingdom through the last eight conflicting years. Though he was fought along side her only a handful of times, each time she proved herself as a capable leader and earned a bit more of his respect.
