Jun of the Celadine
Widely Known
Roleplay posts: 1,410
Age: 28
Physical Description: Jun is a human adult, standing 5’4”. She is wiry and fit at approximately 120 lbs. She has olive skin, dark brown hair ending just above her shoulders, and slight epicanthic folds over her dark almond eyes. Her face is squarish with a small chin. Her skin is dotted with battle scars, and her left arm is heavily bandaged due to an unknown affliction.
Clothes and Equipment: Jun possesses a vast collection of seeds, herbs, insects, and scrolls hidden in various pouches in her armor. These serve as reagents for her multitude of spells. Her armor consists of a customized, long-coat style gambeson that is stuffed with a matrix of seeds and plant fibers. Fitted on top is a set of brass-like, enchanted half armor (chest piece, pauldrons, and tassets) which gives off a warm aura. She has an open-faced, burgonet style helmet and coif of the same materials.
Her most notable "weapons" are Blackbean and Resonance. Blackbean is an elephant-sized demon crow which has served with Jun for many years as a mount and as a bodyguard. A minor enchantment allows him to disguise himself as a regular crow. Resonance is an azure blue longsword with a mind of his own. He can intercept minor attacks and can teleport to his owner. He can also use a personal reserve of magic to aid in the casting of a single spell.

Jun examined the pulsating cubes with interest. She could sense they were decently powerful but...
"Well, either that or like, a few hundred of these here. And something tells me it'll be impossible to get that many in bulk. What I would need is something comparable to say, Croeria's gems... You don't know what those are. Nevermind. You probably know about the magical weapon protecting Goraia's borders. The system I want to design would use a lot less energy than that, maybe half. But that's still an insane amount of power."
Blackbean flew back to Jun's shoulder. He was still quite grateful for the new armor. Jun smirked. "I've been authorized with a sizeable budget, but I'd still like to spend it wisely and efficiently. I'm sure you understand."

“Well, technically enough of these are produced for your needs, it’s just they're not available to the public. The majority made each month get added to the Central Magic Dispenser which powers the entirety of The Steelscape. It also has a few artifacts in it which are why artifacts are also rather hard to find. Fortunately for you, I have connections. Follow me!”
Going even deeper into the auction house, which appeared to extend hundreds of feet with no sign of an end in sight, the vampire would make his way over to a creature that was hunched over. Covered completely in a cloak, it was impossible to tell what species the creature was, but its hands were covered in boils and it didn’t appear to be in particularly good health.
Holding out a hand to signal Jun should stay back, the vampire would approach the creature and proceed to have a whispered conversation with it. After a few minutes of this conversation, the strange creature would dejectedly point a hand towards yet another pair of metal double doors, this one guarded by a pair of large stone golems.
“You’re going to really owe me now, human. It wasn’t easy to convince that grubby little doorman to let us into this section. Still, you’ll find what you need in here. A blind auction for artifacts of the type you’re looking for is about to happen, I suggest you get your money ready…”
The golems would move aside as the pair passed through the double doors. The inside of this room was even darker than the normal auction area and the only part well lit were the countless artifacts on display. Jun would be capable of feeling the immense amounts of power they held, each one priceless in its own right. Well, not quite priceless. Swathes of clients, practically all wearing cloaks or mask moved around the room, inspecting each artifact intently.

Jun raised her cloak up and started snooping around. She wished she had time to examine each one more carefully. However, there was one item that caught her attention the most. "Beads of the Fourth Time Dragon King" Or rather, a set of items. What she found were several large spheres of various sizes. They were metallic looking, and each seemed to be divided into two halves via a black indentation that waved around their circumferences. The outer shells were mostly silver, but also covered in a white gold design. Frankly, they were very beautiful. A rather odd thing happened when she was close to them. Her sword, Resonance, or rather the fairy construct within Resonance, became drawn to them. Jun noted in the description that they were best suited to use in time-space manipulation and portal magic, and could recharge over time. She smirked. It's too bad. They would have made an excellent present for Professors Echoes in Gauldin. It also made sense that Resonance would be drawn to them. It was a fourth-dimensional construct after all. The opening bid... could have been worse. While powerful, their limited usefulness helped lower the price somewhat. It was still beyond reach for the vast majority of citizens in Isra. Luckily Madam Naoki was no ordinary citizen. Jun quickly gathered up her bank-notes. She had more than enough for the opening bid. She was determined to take these home with her.

It would take some time for the blind auction to finish up, a number of demons who appeared to be in charge of it going through all the bids, double checked everything and ensured no tampering occurred. Once they finished, messenger boys were sent to various clients, letting them know which auctions they won.
Jun would find such a boy approaching her, just barely over twelve years of age. He was dressed in a suit of similar make to the auctioneers and addressed Jun in a very respectful tone. Jun might notice he seemed rather on edge or nervous.
“Madam, you won the auction for the Beads of the Fourth Time Dragon King. How would you like the items delivered to you? We can give them to you now, arrange protected transportation to accompany you, or send them through a portal to most major locations in the overworld. The second and third option cost extra of course.”
By now, most people were filing out of the auction, some carrying items, but the majority leaving empty handed. Jun most likely wouldn’t notice due to the poor lighting and crowd, but a particular individual, a rather haughty looking demon would stare at her for a rather long time before leaving.

Jun's eyes grew wide with excitement. "I did? Excellent!" She checked her bank notes. She had just under half her budget remaining. "Ok, can you have them sent to the Black Tower Branch in the Land-Tiller's State? Oh, and please make a note that they're from Jun of the Celadine. Have them addressed to someone named 'Grandma'. They'll know who that is." She paid the young demon, and if allowed, would give him a little tip as well.
She rushed over to her vampire "friend." "I did it! I won!" She squealed, practically hopping up and down. "Thank you so much. Did you get anything good too? Also, about that favor? What do you need? I've still got some of my budget left or..."

The errand boy nodded solemnly as she gave out her instructions. He performed a deep bow when she paid him and took the tip, offering her a quiet “thank you”, before quickly stuffing the tip away in his pocket. With that done, he would scuttle off to relay the message to his superiors.
Her vampire friend would let out a sigh as Jun excited exclaimed her winning, holding a finger to his lips when she became rather loud.
“You need to quiet down human. Around here it’s in your best interest not to show to the world you just won something at the auction, the people who lost to you might not be that happy about it. I’d keep your wits about if I were you. Unfortunately for me, the item I wanted was also wanted by Equinox Industries, which means there’s no way in hell I was going to be getting it. Although I was planning on having you help bid on it with me, due to Equinox Industries wanting it, there was no point. I think I’ll have to cash in on that favor some other time. You said you worked with the Sun Marshalls? Well, maybe if I ever visit Isra you’ll be able to do something for me.”
Exiting the auction, the vampire would seem ready to part ways.
“Well, perhaps we’ll meet again, perhaps not. Just remember, be careful while exiting the Steelscape, I saw someone watching in the auction, and they didn’t have a very friendly expression on their face…”
His warning given, the vampire would leave, melting into the bustling crowd of the exchange.

"Take care!" Jun grinned. What a surprisingly nice guy. Somewhat red-faced, she had to admit to herself that the vampire did have a point. She looked around for the strange figure but saw no one. She assumed he or she must have already left. She patted Blackbean on the head and decided to head back to the Great Gate. She was anxious to get started on her project and didn't want any more delays, especially from a disgruntled potential bidder.
Watching her back and moving quickly with her hood up, she made for the nearest portal to the Great Gate.
