Moonflower Làidir
Main Character
Roleplay posts: 537 
Age: 25
Physical Description: Moonflower is tall and willowy, standing at 5'11"; for all her slimness, she definitely has a woman's figure, with subtle curves that she does her best to hide beneath clothing slightly too large for her. Her hair is white, and falls to her waist, framing a face with a delicate bone structure and fair skin, set with a pair of silver-blue eyes that have a tendency to change intensity of hue to reflect her emotions. She has a few scars scattered all over her body, but the only real visible marks are the scars and callouses on her hands, a product of her work. For all her slight build, she is somewhat strong, likely due to her lupine-shifter nature, and she is flexible, swift, and dexterous.. when she's not dropping things due to being clumsy and awkward.
------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Her usual clothing consists of any mixture of one of her white linen shirts, a vest with two small pockets (one dark blue, one light blue, one light grey); a pair of breeches (one black, one dark grey, one dark blue), and her black knee-high boots. Always around her left wrist is a pewter Dwarven bracelet, and around her right a bear-claw bracelet; on the fourth finger of her left hand, she wears a silver engagement ring with a single oval-shaped moonstone framed by a pair of triquetra. Tools of her trade include whittling knives, and glass- and metal-etching tools.

Moon laughed at the flood of questions, but didn't hesitate to answer them as best she could.
"Yes, you're going to have a cousin. How he got in there is something your daddy can explain when you're older. He'll come out when he's ready, in about four months. I'm going to name him after your daddy because your daddy is my favorite person in this world, aside from your Uncle Mihael, and that's what you do when you love someone - you name your baby after them. Just like how you got named after me, Moon Moon."
This last was said as she gently tapped little Moon's nose with her fingertip, then grinned down at the children. Her gaze shifted to Alden's again, and when she realized that he'd actually teared up a little, Moon felt her own eyes fill with that annoying stinging wetness. She sniffled and breathed a watery laugh as she swept her fingers under her eyes, trying very hard not to start crying. Alden should know better than to go being emotional around a pregnant woman!
"You can't do that, you're going to make me cry."

Age: 30
Physical Description: Alden is 6 even, with shoulder length messy black hair, and several days worth of beard stubble. He is handsome, with a powerful jaw, mid set cheek bones, and a perpetual grin that makes him seem younger than he really is. His bright green eyes, constantly sparkle with barely contained mirth. He has the lithe well muscled body of a swordsmen, and he moves with considerable grace and dexterity.
If one where to take more thorough examination of Alden's eyes they may notice a further detail. Around the outside edge of his iris's there's an intricate series of minuscule grey runes.
Alden rarely removes his shirt, but should someone see him with it off, they would find his body to be covered in scar tissue. Starting from just below his neckline, there is very little space that does not sport some relic of a past injury. A particularly observant person may also note that among these scars, some are a bright scarlet. These scarlet scars form an intricate series of runes hiding among the others.
Those of a more magical bent may be able to decipher the runes in his eyes and on his skin. Identifying them as sigils more commonly found on magical items. The most obvious effect of the runes on his body, are increased speed, strength, and durability.
The runes on his eyes give him the ability to detect magical auras and residue, as well as allowing him to see through low level illusions and glamours. They also maintain his vision regardless of the current light level, and even if there is a sudden shift. His eyes are also capable of dropping into the infrared spectrum in complete darkness.
The rune work on his body enhances his natural strength, speed, endurance, durability, and reflexes to almost super human levels. The effects make him a formidable opponent for most magical creatures though only because they are supplemented by exceptional skill.
This means that all though he is almost super human in a straight contest of strength or speed he would most likely loose to most other magically enhanced humanoids such as vampires or were wolves.
Alden's runes also greatly increase his healing rate allowing him to recover from injuries that would normally take a few months for a person to recover from in a few short weeks. Not only do Alden's runes accelerate healing they also enhance it. A normal persons body will repair itself until it is functioning again then stop, thanks to the runes Alden's body will continues to fix itself until it is in near perfect condition. His healing abilities enhance his already prodigious stamina as it repairs muscle damage and lactic build up and it also increases longevity as he does not accumulate long term damage as most people do.
Finally his body runes provide protection from people attempts to find him magically. Detection spells will be obfuscated their readings on his location being off by about 20 meters. Long distance scrying and tracking spells are only able to narrow down his area to somewhere within a mile radius. It should be noted that these protections can be overcome by someone with sufficient power or ingenuity.
His runes cannot be removed unless they are cut off of his body using an appropriate ritual knife and magic. If the runes are disrupted in any other way they will simply grow back in a few weeks time.
The final thing that only someone versed in rune craft and enchanting would be able to tell is this: The process of these runes being carved into his bodies would have been unbelievably painful. A normal person would have been driven insane or to suicide if they had this happen to them. During the carving process un-directed magical energies would begin to take hold and tear apart your soul. The pain this would not cease until the rune pattern was completed. This means the pain caused would be on a spiritual and physical level of incredible magnitude.

The children turned to see what their daddy was doing. All of them gasp in surprise. Daddy never cried, he never came close. Suddenly the children are scrambling away from Moon to swarm their father. They hug him and look up at him eye wide with concern and a bit of fear.
"What's wrong daddy?" "You look like you are going to cry?" "Did you get a boo boo when we weren't looking?" "Stop biting my ear!"
Alden laughs and wipes at his eyes scooping up his children. He tickles and kisses until they are no longer worried.
"I'm not crying because of anything bad. Sometimes you cry when you are happy... apparently."

The sudden departure of the children made it much easier for Moon to wrangle her emotions back under control, and after a few sniffles, she stood and followed the horde of munchkins over to where their father was sitting. Scooting them aside, she sat down beside her pack-brother and wrapped her arms around him in a hug, pressing her brow to his jaw as she smiled.
"Happy tears. So strange. That's a lesson we both had to learn, eh, Alden?" It was crazy to think how much they'd both changed since they met. Her eyes closed as she hugged him, and then the baby stirred, kicking vigorously and making her grunt as she pulled away. She smoothed her hand over her belly as she huffed a laugh.
"I think your potential namesake is saying 'hello' to his or her uncle, brother."

The children protested at being scooted aside, but quickly decided to crawl over both Alden and Moon. The reminder that her belly had a baby in it brought many curious hands and ears back to Moon. Alden smiles at his sister reaching over to take her hand and squeeze it. Then he moves a hand to rest it on her belly. He moves in close and whispers softly.
"Hello little one, welcome to the family."

The energetic pup kicked and moved as hands and ears pressed to the cloth and flesh shell that protected it from the world, although it stilled at hearing Alden's voice, before kicking his palm vigorously. Moon giggled, hiding her grin behind her fingers as she looked at the amusing scene. Yep, this was definitely her baby.. and Mihael's baby.. and Alden's niece or nephew. Letting her hand fall, she grinned.
"I think this pup will fit in just fine. Ah, that reminds me..." She stretched out and grabbed the basket of gifts, dragging it over. Then she began plucking out items and handing them to the cat-eared children.
"I brought presents!" She also passed one over to Alden, something wrapped in cloth, which when opened revealed a sturdy gauntlet of Dwarven make. "The Dwarves over in Alban are amazing craftsmen. I'm hoping they'll let me spend some time there and learn from them, once this little one is big enough to do without me for a while."

Alden grins as he feels the little one kick. He was feisty, so he'd fit in just fine. The gifts are met with squeals of joy and as they are unwrapped gasps of amazement. There is also some attempted stealing, but Alden's stern voice puts an end to it. The children loved their father and they would disobey him... where he could see them anyway. He takes his own present and gives the gauntlet a critical once over, then nods.
"Thank you Moon, you are right it is of excellent make. Might make a good back up weapon, when I have to dress formally."
The dressing formally part is said with a grumble. He did not enjoy wearing fancy clothing.

A chuckle was heard from the lupine woman in response to Alden's words, and after plucking a final item from this basket (this one a small pouch of nuts for her, she was always hungry these days), she leaned back comfortably. Propping the pouch on her belly, she began to eat them one at a time, offering a handful to her pack-brother while the children played with their various gifts.
"My thoughts exactly. I know they keep forcing you into situations where you can't have your normal weapons on hand, and I saw that and thought it would be perfect for you. The craftsman who sold it to me said that it was made of the hardest metal imaginable, and it'd take, ahem -- 'a force like unto a blow from the gods to break it'." This last bit was said in a rough tone that mimicked Dwarven speech so perfectly, it was almost like Moon was just a tall, beardless Dwarf. Her impression was spot-on, and she knew it. One benefit of spending much of her young life with the short race, she supposed, and she grinned as she popped another nut into her mouth.

Alden takes some of the nuts and chews. He chuckles at her impersonation of a dwarf and he watches his children play. They were the best things in his life and it was good to see them so happy. He had a family and thinking of that he says off hand.
"I've been thinking I should get to know Mihael a bit better. He's my brother in law or something along those lines. I'll set something up with him, take him for a weekend and bond."

Moon nearly choked on what she'd been eating when Alden said that, and she turned a very flat look at him.
"I'm all in favor of you being friendly with Mihael, but I swear that you better return him to me completely whole and at least mostly unharmed. I'm more than a little attached to him and I'd be mightily upset if I didn't get him back in at least very nearly the same condition that you took him away in." Moon was normally very mild-mannered, but there was an edge to her tone that Alden should recognize - that of a wolf who would kill on behalf of her pack. She wouldn't kill Alden if Mihael got hurt, but she'd sure make him wish he was dead. Mihael was not only her husband, after all.. he was her mate, and with the way her hormones were influencing her... There's no telling how she'd react if he got gravely wounded.

The rune work on his body enhances his natural strength, speed, endurance, durability, and reflexes to almost super human levels. The effects make him a formidable opponent for most magical creatures though only because they are supplemented by exceptional skill.
This means that all though he is almost super human in a straight contest of strength or speed he would most likely loose to most other magically enhanced humanoids such as vampires or were wolves.
Alden's runes also greatly increase his healing rate allowing him to recover from injuries that would normally take a few months for a person to recover from in a few short weeks. Not only do Alden's runes accelerate healing they also enhance it. A normal persons body will repair itself until it is functioning again then stop, thanks to the runes Alden's body will continues to fix itself until it is in near perfect condition. His healing abilities enhance his already prodigious stamina as it repairs muscle damage and lactic build up and it also increases longevity as he does not accumulate long term damage as most people do.
Finally his body runes provide protection from people attempts to find him magically. Detection spells will be obfuscated their readings on his location being off by about 20 meters. Long distance scrying and tracking spells are only able to narrow down his area to somewhere within a mile radius. It should be noted that these protections can be overcome by someone with sufficient power or ingenuity.
His runes cannot be removed unless they are cut off of his body using an appropriate ritual knife and magic. If the runes are disrupted in any other way they will simply grow back in a few weeks time.
The final thing that only someone versed in rune craft and enchanting would be able to tell is this: The process of these runes being carved into his bodies would have been unbelievably painful. A normal person would have been driven insane or to suicide if they had this happen to them. During the carving process un-directed magical energies would begin to take hold and tear apart your soul. The pain this would not cease until the rune pattern was completed. This means the pain caused would be on a spiritual and physical level of incredible magnitude.

Alden is a little taken aback by Moon's tone, but he nods his head. He chews another few nuts and then says calmly.
"Don't worry Moon, I wouldn't let anything happen to him. He makes you happy, so if he died you'd be sad. You know what I do to people that upset you."
He wasn't particularly nice to people who upset Moon. And honestly if he upset her he'd never forgive himself. One of the kids comes up to tug at his leg and he picks the little boy up. Unlike the other children he didn't seem to talk much. He was chewing on the toy Moon had given him though and smiling happily up at his father. Alden tickles the lads belly and he giggles happily.
"Hey there little Rawr Rawr, what do you have there?"
The boy takes the toy out of his mouth and eagerly shows off his toy to Alden, clearly very proud of the wooden horse.

Main Character
Roleplay posts: 537
Age: 25
Physical Description: Moonflower is tall and willowy, standing at 5'11"; for all her slimness, she definitely has a woman's figure, with subtle curves that she does her best to hide beneath clothing slightly too large for her. Her hair is white, and falls to her waist, framing a face with a delicate bone structure and fair skin, set with a pair of silver-blue eyes that have a tendency to change intensity of hue to reflect her emotions. She has a few scars scattered all over her body, but the only real visible marks are the scars and callouses on her hands, a product of her work. For all her slight build, she is somewhat strong, likely due to her lupine-shifter nature, and she is flexible, swift, and dexterous.. when she's not dropping things due to being clumsy and awkward.
------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Her usual clothing consists of any mixture of one of her white linen shirts, a vest with two small pockets (one dark blue, one light blue, one light grey); a pair of breeches (one black, one dark grey, one dark blue), and her black knee-high boots. Always around her left wrist is a pewter Dwarven bracelet, and around her right a bear-claw bracelet; on the fourth finger of her left hand, she wears a silver engagement ring with a single oval-shaped moonstone framed by a pair of triquetra. Tools of her trade include whittling knives, and glass- and metal-etching tools.

That seemed to soothe her proverbially ruffled fur, and she settled down, returning to munching on nuts.
"I know. I'm sorry. My emotions are all over the place lately. I feel like I cry for no reason and get angry over the smallest things." She looked toward her little nephew as he came over, and grinned when she saw how much he enjoyed the horse she'd found. It was glossy and smooth and completely seamless, with exquisite detail.
"Isn't that amazing? The Fae over there grow things out of the wood without harming it at all. I've never seen anything like it."

Physical Description: Alden is 6 even, with shoulder length messy black hair, and several days worth of beard stubble. He is handsome, with a powerful jaw, mid set cheek bones, and a perpetual grin that makes him seem younger than he really is. His bright green eyes, constantly sparkle with barely contained mirth. He has the lithe well muscled body of a swordsmen, and he moves with considerable grace and dexterity.
If one where to take more thorough examination of Alden's eyes they may notice a further detail. Around the outside edge of his iris's there's an intricate series of minuscule grey runes.
Alden rarely removes his shirt, but should someone see him with it off, they would find his body to be covered in scar tissue. Starting from just below his neckline, there is very little space that does not sport some relic of a past injury. A particularly observant person may also note that among these scars, some are a bright scarlet. These scarlet scars form an intricate series of runes hiding among the others.
Those of a more magical bent may be able to decipher the runes in his eyes and on his skin. Identifying them as sigils more commonly found on magical items. The most obvious effect of the runes on his body, are increased speed, strength, and durability.

"It is impressive. I almost feel bad about what will happen to it."
Alden said with a small laugh as Rravarran stuck the horses head back in his mouth. The boy was the proverbial runt of the litter, the least talkative, and the one Naoki pushed around the most. Still like all his children Rawr Rawr was bright, sunny, and happy. It came from having a father that doted upon them whenever he was around. Pretty soon the other children pick up on what Rravarran did. Then Alden is covered in little bodies eager to show off new prized possessions.

"I can always get them more." Moon didn't seem at all bothered by little Rravarran chewing on his gift, and in fact once she'd finished her snack (tossing the empty pouch back into the basket), she stretched out with her hands folded atop her belly, simply basking in the happiness of being with her extended family. Any child who came to cuddle with her was welcomed, bundled into her arms and nuzzled lovingly as she smiled. After a while of silence, she looked at Alden with eyes that seemed slightly concerned.
"So how are things with you and Cynder?" Alden never seemed to want to talk about his mate, and Moon often wondered if things weren't as great as he always said they were.

Alden frowns at the question. It was a delicate one and he isn't quite sure how to phrase his response. He absently jostle one of his children on his knees and say's after a moment.
"She's been... distant lately. We sort of rushed into things and I'm not sure how she feels right now. She loves the kids, but I'm less certain how she feels about me. It could be nothing maybe she just needs to sort some things out."

Moon's expression filled with empathy. She knew very well how that felt. The same thing had happened between her and Kematian. Leaning closer, she let her head fall to rest on his shoulder as she spoke quietly.
"I had a feeling. If you ever need me, I'm just a teleport away. And although I'd never wish the kids to be without a parent.. I also want you to be happy. And if that means not being with her, I'll support you however you need it. You know that, right?"

"I know. I hope things will work out, for the kids they need their mother. But the lack of talking bothers me. As does the lack of sex."
Alden notes bluntly. Though he had made great strides in being more normal somethings hadn't changed. He still hadn't realized certain topics shouldn't be discussed bluntly. Or in front of children, though his kids were thankfully ignoring him.

Moon blushed as Alden mentioned the lack of sex, but she didn't get flustered as she once would have. She did, however, remain silent for several long moments, trying to figure out how to say what she felt the need to say next. This was a delicate subject, and she didn't have a whole lot of experience in things like this, but she felt the need to help Alden. He was her brother, after all.
"Have you considered what you'll do if those things don't improve?" It was phrased in a carefully neutral, slightly inquisitive tone that was mostly tinged with worry. She didn't want these children to lose their mother, but she also wanted Alden to be happy.. and it sounded like Alden wasn't happy. At all. That didn't sit right with her.

"Not really no. I've been focusing on the kids. They are what's important."
Alden stares down at his children. His face is a mask of adoration, love, and absolute devotion. It is clear that he would do anything for his children, no matter the personal cost.

Moon struggled with herself for a second, then spoke softly.
"..They are.. but I think you should put some thought into it." She raised her head and patted his shoulder, then tried to raise the mood by smiling brightly and gesturing to her gaggle of cat-eared nieces and nephews.
"Now, I want to hear all about what you scamps have been up to!" Getting the children talking about their lives and their day to day activities was always entertaining.

Physical Description: Alden is 6 even, with shoulder length messy black hair, and several days worth of beard stubble. He is handsome, with a powerful jaw, mid set cheek bones, and a perpetual grin that makes him seem younger than he really is. His bright green eyes, constantly sparkle with barely contained mirth. He has the lithe well muscled body of a swordsmen, and he moves with considerable grace and dexterity.
If one where to take more thorough examination of Alden's eyes they may notice a further detail. Around the outside edge of his iris's there's an intricate series of minuscule grey runes.
Alden rarely removes his shirt, but should someone see him with it off, they would find his body to be covered in scar tissue. Starting from just below his neckline, there is very little space that does not sport some relic of a past injury. A particularly observant person may also note that among these scars, some are a bright scarlet. These scarlet scars form an intricate series of runes hiding among the others.
Those of a more magical bent may be able to decipher the runes in his eyes and on his skin. Identifying them as sigils more commonly found on magical items. The most obvious effect of the runes on his body, are increased speed, strength, and durability.
The runes on his eyes give him the ability to detect magical auras and residue, as well as allowing him to see through low level illusions and glamours. They also maintain his vision regardless of the current light level, and even if there is a sudden shift. His eyes are also capable of dropping into the infrared spectrum in complete darkness.
The rune work on his body enhances his natural strength, speed, endurance, durability, and reflexes to almost super human levels. The effects make him a formidable opponent for most magical creatures though only because they are supplemented by exceptional skill.
This means that all though he is almost super human in a straight contest of strength or speed he would most likely loose to most other magically enhanced humanoids such as vampires or were wolves.
Alden's runes also greatly increase his healing rate allowing him to recover from injuries that would normally take a few months for a person to recover from in a few short weeks. Not only do Alden's runes accelerate healing they also enhance it. A normal persons body will repair itself until it is functioning again then stop, thanks to the runes Alden's body will continues to fix itself until it is in near perfect condition. His healing abilities enhance his already prodigious stamina as it repairs muscle damage and lactic build up and it also increases longevity as he does not accumulate long term damage as most people do.
Finally his body runes provide protection from people attempts to find him magically. Detection spells will be obfuscated their readings on his location being off by about 20 meters. Long distance scrying and tracking spells are only able to narrow down his area to somewhere within a mile radius. It should be noted that these protections can be overcome by someone with sufficient power or ingenuity.
His runes cannot be removed unless they are cut off of his body using an appropriate ritual knife and magic. If the runes are disrupted in any other way they will simply grow back in a few weeks time.
The final thing that only someone versed in rune craft and enchanting would be able to tell is this: The process of these runes being carved into his bodies would have been unbelievably painful. A normal person would have been driven insane or to suicide if they had this happen to them. During the carving process un-directed magical energies would begin to take hold and tear apart your soul. The pain this would not cease until the rune pattern was completed. This means the pain caused would be on a spiritual and physical level of incredible magnitude.

The kids were thrilled to share stories of their adventures. Tales of bugs found and caught, epic games of tag and hide and seek, monsters slain, daddy's defeated, and many other stories. Alden sits and stew over what Moon had asked him. The question rolling in his mind over and over. He didn't want to leave Cynder, but it felt like she had already left him. It was a hell of an issue and he wasn't sure how to resolve it.
