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.

"Well I'll be damned. They actually came to a tru-"
... Damnit.
This was her final thought just before she and Blackbean were enveloped in a net of white light and suddenly disappeared. It may have been well worth the distraction to see a once in a lifetime event however: a parlaying blue dragon.
Surrounding the village, meanwhile, was now a ring of mutated plants sporting long drapes of golden yellow flowers that didn't really belong to them. Assuming no one was around to complete the spell, the flowers would recede with time. Anyone who dared to consume the flowers would be in for a surprise, however.

From her hiding place, Cheesecake continued to charge a spell while keeping an eye on the dragon and Riley. She could hear part of the conversation and the words "truce" came up followed by Riley holding his hand out to shake. Was he trying to make peace with the dragon? What was the point of all her spell casting if he was going to give up?! Maybe the dragon made him do it!
Peeking her head out, she chirped to Riley as to what was going on. She still retained the two charges, however, in case something went poorly.

This was too precious. The dragon was attempting to parlay? Either he was desperate and realize the odds were against him or he was crafty enough to lure Riley into a false sense of security and stab him in the back. Riley wasn't above thinking it was a little of both. Still....as much as he disliked the dragon, he cared more about protecting the city. If the dragon actually was willing to work with him to save it having more firepower would always be appreciated. If nothing else he could return to the fight they were having at a later time. Cheesecake's chirp was all he needed to confirm this as well. Riley put his scythe's blade to the ground, signifying the truce was accepted. "Alright....I hate you, no question, but I do want to help these people out. You know the bandit leader's base location? Then I say we stop here and team up to take them down. And if we do this we'll need to both promise not to betray each other until after the city is rid of their bandit trouble. No backstabbing, no 'I changed my mind', no 'I had my fingers crossed' nonsense. You know about honor just as much as I do, I'm not going to do something stupid like trick a dragon. Same's true for my fairy companion, I'll keep her reigned in. We'll finish our fight afterwards. Are these terms acceptable?" Riley held out his hand to shake, symbolizing a gentleman's agreement. He knew the dragon wouldn't shake if for no other reason than he was too large to actually do so. Riley hoped the dragon was as honorable as he was cruel. Jarkoopi, Kepesk Altiui did not like this human, but it appeared to him through battling that he and his fairy were more than capable of putting up a fight. Something he’d like to direct towards Helmfirth, who was ultimately the true enemy to both of them, whether they liked it or not. If they continued fighting here and now, neither party would have enough manpower or strength to kick Helmfirth where it’d hurt most. The fact that Jun and her bird just disappeared out of thin air didn’t help, he’d have to summon her once again. He’d nearly forgotten he had one of the Isranian communication gems embedded in a stone bracelet, he could use that to reestablish contact with her in just a moment. The dragon stopped focusing on his anti-magic spell and the local mana returned to the area. As Riley put out his hand, he might see the dragon approach him, and in a flash of light, the dragon was replaced with the appearance was that of a man in the age range of forties to fifties, averagely built besides being a few inches taller than the average Joe and dressed in clean leather armor and worn blue cloths. As Riley’s eyes recovered, he could feel the old hardened grip of another human grab his hand tightly and shake while he heard the voice of a slightly higher pitched and less rumbling voice than of the dragon's. “You have a promise, xsio sia frevor di iejir sjek si jikmada coi.”The man gave a smile, something pleasant that the dragon had provided. He let go of the human’s hand. “Now, if you’ll give me a moment I need to call my friend back over, whom you two teleported away.”He turned away from Riley to clutch at the stone braclet as he walked away from him slowly. You still there? You’re coming back, now.Jarkoopi, Kepesk Altiui would set his focus on making Jun reappear, now in front of him. He’d talk to Riley or Cheesecake further once Jun was here.

Riley Fletcher and Cheesecake

Roleplay posts: 121
Age: 25
Physical Description: Riley Fletcher is a red-haired human standing 6 feet in height, with the body of a trained soldier. His hair has been described as "red and floppy" and his clothes always seem to be their cleanest. Cheesecake is a fairy standing 6 inches in height, wearing a pink skirt. She has short blonde hair with a tiny cowlick that never seems to go away no matter what.
Clothes and Equipment: Riley's normal attire includes his red armor and green-tinted plate pieces and his green scythe with an amber blade. The scythe was a gift from the archfey themselves. Riley will be the first to admit a scythe isn't actually a viable weapon but the archfey, living in another plane of existence and having no idea what humans consider weapons, gifted him one thinking that because "it's super awesome-looking" it must be a proper weapon.
He keeps a longsword and shield as a backup for when the archfey are proven wrong. Along with his weapon, Riley carries with him standard adventuring gear as well as healing potions for when they're traveling. Cheesecake's small size means she's not able to carry much more than her rapier (essentially a metal toothpick).

(Since we're not fighting anymore I'm not going to bother using Cheesecake's separate account)
"I could just ask my friend to- oh, okay, you're, uh...you're doing the thing already...." Riley started to say before Jarkoopi began the teleportation spell. Riley waved to where Cheesecake was, causing her to fly over to Riley where she hugged his cheek and chirped. She looked to the new man standing before Riley and chirped back to him in confusion.
"No, that's the dragon in disguise. Glamours or something, I guess." Riley replied, "He's bringing his cute human friend back, the one you sucked into your portal."
Cheesecake let out a low-sounding coo to suggest she understood before her eyes went wide. Her cheeks became puffy as she chirped at Riley upon hearing about Jun's return. Riley stepped back with his hands out in front.
"Hey, I'm not going to deny it. I certainly wouldn't say anything either. Anyway, we have a truce with these two, so be on your best behavior. No backstabbing, okay?"
Cheesecake began to argue, frantically chirping but each time Riley would stop her. Eventually she sighed and floated onto his head, crossing her arms in frustration and pouting.
"We have more important things than hunting dragons, Cheese, let it go for now."
Cheesecake rolled her eyes and cast the two-charge spell she had held, creating a massive donut in her hands the twice her size covered in chocolate drizzle. Taking a bite in anger, the donut refilled the spot she bit out of almost immediately after she chewed and swallowed. This would continue for the duration of Jarkoopi's spell.

"..."
It took more than a few seconds, but eventually, a flash of lightning would strike next to Jarkoopi, heralding Jun's return. Blackbean was sitting on her shoulder, now the size of a regular crow. His cataphract armor was now less menacing and more adorable. He cawed bitterly at Cheesecake. Jun herself was still adorned in her armor.
"What the- oh. I see." She said blankly. She had never seen Jarkoopi's human disguise, but she quickly deduced his identity from his magical aura. She raised up her palms towards Jarkoopi the man. A light shined from her hands and bathed his body. He would feel bruises heal and bones crack into place. It might sting a bit, but he would feel much better for enduring it.
"So, I take it you guys have come to some sort of understanding? Maybe you decided to talk out your problems?" She spoke with a cold, serious voice while she continued to heal Jarkoopi. Once again Blackbean cawed at Cheesecake. She looked towards the fairy and gave a genuinely warm half smile. "Cool spell by the way. My name is Jun." Her face turned to ice again and she finished up her healing spell.
Without waiting for a reply from the three, she walked over to a patch of dirt a few meters away, where she would find her loofah. She bent down and picked it up, and then deliberately walked towards Jarkoopi. "You guys can fill me in in just a sec. I need to do something first."
Then, without any other warning, she viciously slapped the loofah into the back of Jarkoopi's head. This wouldn't cause any damage (loofahs rarely did), but it would certainly mess up his perfectly coifed human hair. She repeated this action several times, striking at his shoulders, back, and chest like a grandmother attacking a thief with her purse.

Riley and Cheesecake eyed one another before looking to Jarkoopi and Jun's antics with the smugest, most cathertic look on their faces. They had failed to kill Jarkoopi, but this was definitely worth it. After Jun had finished, Riley nodded to her and stepped forward. His posture was straight and proper but also casual to an extent.
"Pleasure to make your acquaintance, ma'am. I'm sorry we met on such hostile terms. Lieutenant Riley Fletcher, this is my companion Cheesecake." Riley said, holding out his hand to shake before gesturing to the sprite. As they spoke, Cheesecake had split the infinitely regenerating donut down the middle which caused both halves to regenerate and create two separate donuts. She looked up and waved to Jun with one before taking a bite out of the other.

Jun sighed. "Yes and I'm a woman of my word." She put the loofah away in her pack. "Well, since the fighting is officially over..." Jun backed away and raised her hands into the air. There was a flash of lightning, though this was ominously soundless. Afterwards, Jun was dressed in far more comfortable clothing. She now had a black silk suit and slacks, a bit mannish were it not for a floral pattern dominating her side. Her sword was still holstered at her hip, and an odd sort of silver belt, holding a glassy crystal near the base of her spine, was now visible. The belt had thin silver chains that ran to what appeared to be gauntlets hidden up Jun's sleeves. They were just the right length to not impede her movement. She still had a rough looking pack and some thick, black, comfortable-looking boots.
"I agree. I promise I'm not usually this much of a, well, a bitch." She extended her hand to accept Riley's handshake. "Nor am I usually this vain. I just, I dunno." It was clear Jun was a bit frazzled from the fight. "It's good to meet you, Lieutenant. Also you're like the third, fourth Fletcher I met?"
She gave an exhausted but warm smile to Cheesecake and gladly accepted the donut. "So, what kind of deal did you guys come to?"

He chuckled.
"Yeah, Fletcher's a common surname I suppose. Though you don't strike me as vain." He said as Cheesecake fluttered back onto Riley's head to nibble her infinity donut.
"It's more of a pact really. We find a bandit leader terrorizing this town and dispose of them. From there, we'll decide on whether we want to keep fighting or not. Knowing you're not this dragon's slave and he's more selfish than evil-"
He leaned in and whispered to Jarkoopi.
"-no offense-"
He returned to his normal standing position and volume.
"-I think as long as he agrees not to attack or extort an obviously suffering village with few excess resources I can let bygones be bygones. I have a feeling I wouldn't be able to win anyway."
Cheesecake let out a squeak, pouting a little. Riley rolled his eyes.
"I specifically mentioned me. I have no clue what you can do, and we've been together for...."
She chirped once more. Riley stopped in shock.
"Really? That long? Huh, time flies, I guess." He said, sincerely surprised.

Jarkoopi, Kepesk Altiui would let the two finish conversing, even as Riley leaned in to test his nerve under their “truce,” and then would turn to address Jun. “We’ve came to the temporary agreement to not try to murder each other, until this Warden of Airedale is disposed of. Anything goes after we’re out of this.”He turned back to brief all of the group once again. “So, what I was told, before you Riley, rudely interrupted my conversation,”He glared at the man for a brief moment, he was toying with him under this allegiance. “Was these raiders happen to come from up north. They head south to come down around this territory and harrass the locals. Such as this village.” He motioned to the buildings around him. “And these bandits are happen to be lead by a Warden of Airedale, don’t know much about this being, besides what’s implied in the name. We should look in that direction,”He outstretched his arm and pointed towards the woods to the north. “For any place called Airedale. Or maybe somebody else who might know where that is, and we force it out of them.” He turned back to Riley Fletcher and Cheesecake, “ Do not think you are special, but for this one time alone, I will allow you to travel upon my back if you have no flying mount.” He didn’t need to say Jun was welcome to use him as transportation, she should already know she was welcome anytime. “And Jun, I’ve heard you’re a Sun Marshal. If you could kindly as the Empress for any assistance on our quest, that’d be appreciated. I’d do it myself, but we are currently not on the best of terms.”He paused so they could all fully register what he was saying. “Do any of you have any questions, or perhaps better ideas of how to go about this? Personal questions can be answered while we’re travelling. Jun and I will need to catch up.” The older man smiled, and for once, it looked natural.

He keeps a longsword and shield as a backup for when the archfey are proven wrong. Along with his weapon, Riley carries with him standard adventuring gear as well as healing potions for when they're traveling. Cheesecake's small size means she's not able to carry much more than her rapier (essentially a metal toothpick).

Riley flinched at the mention of the empress but otherwise remained silent until Jarkoopi finished.
"Actually, I think I'll walk. I don't do so well when flying. Makes me sick, you know?" He said as he began walking North.
"I'm sure they'll book it when they see a dragon charging them down, I'm mostly coming along for ground support and because I want to keep an eye on you until after this is all over. Cheesecake might take you up on that offer, though. She'd probably be able to help Miss Jun out more than I could."
Cheesecake gave a hardened salute before zipping over to Jun, floating just above her shoulder and waving to her cheerily.

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.

"Walking may be for the best. It'll give us the element of surprise." Jun winked at Riley. "They'll be expecting to have to guard against dragons and giant hands. That battle of ours was visible for miles around. So best we keep a low profile." She grinned when Cheesecake approached her and gestured for her to sit on her shoulder. "I would love to learn how you did that hand portal thing." She said. "And as a matter of fact, I've been a Sun Marshal for over a year now." Jun looked over to Jarkoopi. "I was a Sun Marshal when my tribe was at the inter-kingdom conference, back when you... well, water under the bridge I guess. Anyways, give me a chance to contact Empress Naoki ." With that Jun tapped her choker, which Riley would notice had a small purple gem hanging on it. Then Jun appeared to concentrate while snacking on her donut. Hello? High Lady Naoki? Can you hear me?... Hello, forgive me for disturbing you, but I have a bit of a request. Jarkoopi summoned me to... uh, I guess it's an island nation with a serious bandit problem, uh, Helmrith I think. He seems intent on liberating a village in the island from a warlord named the Warden of Airedale. The village is called...Jun looked around for a sign. ... Acrine Village. I'm here with a lieutenant and an extremely powerful little fairy who gave Jarkoopi a pretty good fight. I won't go into details but let's say there was a misunderstanding between them. For the moment we're on the same side. Anyways, I'm anticipating a serious struggle, so would you be able to send any spare Black Tower agents or Sun Marshals to our position? If we do this we could probably increase our reputation in this region.The transmission between Jun and Naoki would be fairly clean, although Lady Naoki might inexplicably start craving donuts.

Physical Description: =========================
Empress Naoki is a curvaceous woman of average height, indeterminate age, and catlike features. Her hair is a dark auburn, often pulled back into a long braid. Her ears are both soft and fluffy, and her tail is never less than perfectly groomed. Amber eyes glisten in the shadows cast by her hair.

Naoki's wardrobe is to her as a frame is to a painting. Sometimes embellished with detail to be attractive in its own right, but never the focus. Usually simple but elegant, tightly fitting and highly revealing, used only to frame the beauty within.
Additionally, Naoki is, when clothed, often adorned with a small collection of accessories. She wears an earring, a brilliant cut amethyst, in her right ear. The silver signet ring of Isra is worn on her left pinky, marking her as High Lady of Isra. Directly adjacent, she wears the golden signet ring of The Isran Empire as its Empress. On the inside of her left thigh, there is a tattoo depicting a rose entwined with tentacles.

Based on the coherency of the message, Lady Naoki makes the assumption that Jun is not currently in harm’s way, and the need for reinforcements is not immediate.
“Hello, Jun.”
...
“I have many questions,” come the words unspoken, “the first of which is ‘What sort of village do you have over there that you feel is worth both risking your own life over, and asking me to risk the lives of others over?’ Give me more information, because, at the risk of sounding colder than I intend, bandit problems on scum covered rocks do not fall within the purview of my obligations or yours.”

Well, quite frankly, you're right. The truth is it's strictly a charity mission. There are only a few grounds on which I can base my case on. The first is, as I said, a chance to spread Isra's reputation to a new region, something which could have both positive and negative consequences. So that's a bit of a flimsy argument. Humanitarian concerns are perhaps the strongest case, as this village seems to have suffered greatly at the hands of the bandits. But as they are not our allies yet, I could only ask for volunteers, and that is assuming you volunteer to spread the word, something you are not obligated to do either. My own personal motivations are mine alone, and I do have them. I could ask you to respect that, but I know I'm also an asset to Isra, and that you would rather I not waste my life which could be better spent protecting the Free City. So the best I can do is promise to do everything in my power to come back alive and as quickly as possible. I could also make an argument that I'm protecting another asset, Jarkoopi, and aiding the quest of a potential future ally...
Naoki would see an image, a figure in her mind, a winged creature in a pink dress, who could easily fit in someone's palm. Next would play a short moving picture, a highlight reel, of their climactic battle. Giant hands, the creature flying through the air at high speed and suddenly turning invisible, and an almost instant de-summoning spell,all featured prominently.
I believe she is at least as powerful as I am, maybe more so.
Naoki would once again have an inexplicable craving for donuts.
So, in summation, I am not imploring you by any means. There are possible benefits and possible risks, but it is nothing that immediately concerns Isra safety. So the decision is yours.
On the outside, Riley, Cheesecake, and Jarkoopi would see Jun standing serenely with her eyes closed, focusing on something inside her eyelids. Her choker necklace had a purple crystal on it which was glowing brighter than usual. She also occasionally took a bite of the donut.

Naoki’s reply does not follow until several moments have passed in silence. Jun would first feel the mental equivalent of a brief huff of amusement. Naoki wasn’t quite sure what she was expecting but what she got was most certainly Jun.
“Alright,” Naoki responds, “If you’re committed to it I’ll support you, no more questions asked. I’ll send someone over; you’ll owe me a favor, and come to visit later. My point about risking more lives is only valid if I send someone who’s alive, anyway.”
At this point, Jun would begin to feel a craving of her own as Naoki pulls the reversal. Through her mastery of the telepathic arts and command of demonic magics, Naoki bestows upon Jun the most basic of urges, the most primal of hungers, a need that demands to be satiated. Not a so wanton a thirst as to significantly impede Jun’s judgment or lower her standards to such a depth as to make her present company seem in the least appealing, but perhaps enough of an appetite to inspire thoughts most impure and tickle tenderly at the edges of her concentration until suitably addressed.
“Have fun~!”
The smirk is all but visible.

A chill went up her spine, but Jun was able to keep it from reaching the link.
Uh- uhh... Thank you Lady Naoki. I'll stop by as soon as I can.
...
I don't suppose Naoki just really, really likes donuts?
Jun fluttered awake from her apparent trance, and the glow of her gem disappeared. Her face was slightly red. "Well, the high lady is sending back-up." She said in a slightly high pitched voice. She then cleared her throat and took another bite of the donut. "And if it's who I think it is, Jarkoopi, I think you've met before. It might be nice to see a familiar face. Riley, Cheesecake... I'm sorry." She winced.
The creature en route was not the cute and cuddly kind.

Riley snorted. He didn't look too happy about having someone sent over from the empire, although he did his best to hide it.
"Fine, let's just get this over with." He grunted after Jun mentioned who was showing up. Cheesecake looked at him with a confused look before shrugging and swallowing the donut whole and dusting her tiny hands of crumbs.

As a storm dragon, his hide and flesh can generate an electric charge passively when threatened, much like an eel, and can naturally and instantly release it upon being touched by a foreign organism or object.

Clothes and Equipment: Two small leather pouches tucked under wings
He owns his father's ancestral unique magical scale mail. It is enchanted to break on impact and the shards return his body and reform into a different piece of armor until it is struck, then it repeats the steps.
A set of personal shoulder pads forged by Brock the forge master. It focuses the passive electricity in his hide into a beam of magic energy which blasts away targets.
Weaponry: Claws, Breath Attack (Lightning), and Bite
Treasure Hoarding: Minimal, mainly gems sometimes gold.
While as a human, he wields a magical long-sword, not much is known about his weapon, as he rarely uses it.

I’ve probably met more people than there are words in the language of draconic by now. Hopefully whoever you are referencing won’t try to kill me.”He crossed his arms and looked between Jun and Riley as if he was expecting one of them to punch him in the face while they waited.

A dark energy seemingly coalesced out of nowhere then a few moments after Jun had ended contact with Naoki, the dark form of the void creature Xel'rath perhaps only recognizable to Jun. The mere presence of him was unsettling, and that feeling only grew stronger if one of them were to look upon him.
A greedy tug could be felt then by the casters in the area, perhaps, as it gripped the leylines and began siphoned their power directly into Xel'rath as he prepared for battle, dark wisps of energy crackling around him.

"Actually, wait, I don't know for sure if you guys have met. I might be thinking of someone else OH GOD there it is." Jun remembered this chill from one of her previous battles, where she was allied with this creature. Jun shuddered and backed away as the dark form emerged. But at the same time, she felt guilty for contributing to the uneasiness that everyone was bound to feel around him. So she decided to try to remedy that. Using her light magic, she quickly summoned a solid white disk of light beneath her, extending a couple of meters outward. With a quick wave of her hands, a podium of light energy materialized up from the disk. Jun was now somewhat elevated from the ground and appeared ready to give a speech. For a little extra decoration, Blackbean hopped down and sat on the edge of the podium in front of Jun. "Ladies and Gentleman, dragons and fairies!" She said loudly with the tone of a circus announcer. "Jarkoopi asked for back-up, well here he is! Weighing in at anywhere from zero to 20,000 pounds, depending on his mood, I give you the creepiest, spookiest, shadowy-est and unnerving-est presence out of all Isra's allies. He is one of the heroes of Aaedan, a conflict that threatened to destroy the continent. A shapeshifter, a quake maker, and your worst nightmare at any pie eating contest. He's not the hero anyone would ask for, but he's the one we all know we need. Friends, I give you, the one, the only, XEEEEL'RAAAAAAAAAAAAATH!" Her hands flailed out, inviting everyone to bask in the presence of the creature in all its horrific glory. (Cue theme song)
Blackbean cried out, right on cue. As a crow he really added to the atmosphere of the whole presentation.
