Roleplay posts: 310
Age: 22
Physical Description: At 5'7", Thaelyn is just above average height for a woman, with a slender build that makes her just shy of willowy. Slight curves and a womanly shape keep her from looking boyish, if only barely. She has long red hair that falls to her knees, and rich crimson eyes that are usually filled with curiosity, set in a face with delicate features.
-------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Typically, Thaelyn wears a set of white and blood red armor which is inscribed inside with a complex series of magical runes. This provides her armor with a strength that belies its lightness, as well as serving as a sort of magical buffer that wards off most spells. She also carries a spear, or perhaps it's a staff - she seems to use it as a combination of both, using it both to fight and to channel her own magical abilities.

"Thank you!" Thaelyn smiled brightly at him, then returned to her desk. Settling into her seat, she began to work on some sort of paperwork.

Age: 68
Physical Description: Takhana is an undeniably memorable figure. At a full 6' in height, she is graceful and willowy, with a woman's full figure. She has skin that is a dark greyish color, lightly tinted with silver that very nearly sparkles when the light hits it at certain angles. She has the beautifully formed, delicate features, pointed ears, and inherently graceful movements that identify her as one of the Elven folk.Her hair is long, naturally falling to her hips in straight lengths, and is a shining white threaded with silver, although she normally wears it pinned up elaborately with a set of wooden hair sticks that bear jingling silver charms. She has no eyes, and instead wears a blindfold of soft black leather that criss-crosses her empty eye sockets, for the benefit of the others. Tattooed upon her brow and her back are two strange crests, their origin mysterious.
---------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Typically, she wears an elaborate dress of black leather that both reveals her body and conceals it, adorned with straps and seemingly random silver buckles. This is paired with a set of leather-and-metal boots with pointed toes that come to her knees, enhancing the shape of her mostly-visible legs. Aside from her blindfold and ornamental hair sticks, she has a number of accessories that she habitually wears, such as a large pair of silver hoop earrings and numerous silver rings on each hand - one of which, a silvery band set with a violet stone, she wears on her right hand's index finger: This is her official communications accessory for The Midnight Sun, her employer. The enchanted gem is socketed so that it touches her skin at all times, thus allowing her constant access to the telepathic communications network shared by all employees of TMS, simply by virtue of being in uninterrupted physical contact. She uses no weapons, being a peaceable individual.. not to mention the whole blindness thing. She also has a white-and-black, stocky mare named Irabelle, and a fluffy long-haired cat named Jean-Claude.

Takhana descended from the tower a few minutes later, opening the door that led to the structure and moving into the main foyer area where Zephiros was waiting. She had a leather portfolio resting in the crook of her left arm, and a quill and inkwell held carefully in her other hand. She moved with the grace of the Elvenkind as she approached the man, that nonexistent gaze landed unerringly on the blonde, and a small smile was offered by the half-Drow woman.
"Mister Zephiros, thank you for waiting. If you wouldn't mind coming with me, I'll get you all set up." Gesturing for Zephiros to follow her, Takhana led him into the nearby library/planning room. Sitting down at the oblong table, she set down the portfolio, quill and inkwell, immediately pulling out a blank Marshal badge tucked into the portfolio and putting it to one side. The paperwork contained within the portfolio was removed, and she began laying it out in front of the chair to one side of her, indicating Zephiros should sit there.
"I'm well aware of what the High Marshal told you about our organization, but let me preface our actual business by asking if you have any questions?"

Physical Description: Zephiros is not the most muscled of individuals, having a rather average build for someone his age who is physically active. He has blonde hair that reaches his neck and green eyes. He stands at about 5'10'' in height.
He appears to be somewhat younger than he actually is, and he has yet to decide if this is a good thing or not.
Clothes and Equipment: Zephiros wears a variety of things, though most of the times he prefers to wear his trusty jacket. It has a hood with fur on the fringes and is a tan color outside and orange inside. This is the only article of clothing he wears consistently. It acts very well as a windbreaker and rain coat as well.
He also carries with him a wooden carved flute. carved along the flute's length are many ornate designs depicting various creatures and symbols. All of these symbols and other carvings hold meaning to Zephiros and the flute itself also has sentimental value to him for reasons he does not share.

Zephiros would get up, following Takhana through one of the nearby doors into the library. It was quite a large library, with numerous shelves of books all about and many tables and chairs scattered throughout to sit comfortably in to read. The room also held that characteristic smell of a library that Zephiros knew so well, the smell of aged parchment, the smell of books. It was really somewhat indescribable to Zephiros yet it was comforting.
He would take the seat indicated by the paperwork, and would look intently at it, briefly skimming over it for now before he got really into the details. He did have some questions after all before he did any of this, and Takhana at least seemed much more approachable than Alden had.
"Uhm, yeah I have some questions actually. What would the hours be like? Also, what would the pay be like? I have never taken a job similar to this one..."
Was being some sort of special agent for Isra even a job? He supposed it was, but it felt all too not mundane to be simply called a job. Perhaps it was considered a lifestyle, that's what all the most avid of professionals referred to their jobs as after all...
Zephiros didn't know if he wanted this sort of thing to become entirely what his life revolved around, he still wanted to do music on the side at least! Or perhaps do whatever it was Sun Marshalls do on the side.

A smile curved across her lips at the questions asked, and she chuckled softly. Zephiros's perusal of the paperwork would reveal it to be citizenship papers for Isra, and a Sun Marshals contract - all fairly normal, although the contract also contained a very strict non-disclosure agreement.
"The hours are rather fluid, once you finish your training - you'll be given a great deal of free time to pursue whatever you wish outside of missions, although we prefer that our Marshals take advantage of this time to engage in learning things that will broaden their repertoire of skills. That's not mandatory, however, and as long as you're not getting in trouble, we don't much care what you do when you're not on a mission or attending training. As for compensation, if you look in that contract there, you'll see what you'll be receiving. Third page, halfway down."
She pointed to the contract in question. If Zephiros looked where she indicated, he'd find a detailed listing of salaries for the respective ranks within the Marshals - as well as added bonuses for successful mission completion and raises for anniversaries, and other things such as hazard pay for particularly dangerous missions, and allowances for purchasing specialized items or gear that couldn't be requisitioned directly through the Marshals themselves. The figures were exceptionally good, even for this line of work, and she doubted he'd have any complaints on that front.
"Part of your pay is deducted for housing and food, should you choose to live within the quarters provided in this building, but it's a minimal amount." She pointed to where on the page that amount was listed, and it was considerably lesser than room and board at a facility within the city. In all, Zephiros would be getting a very good deal, should he sign on. Takhana folded her hands atop the table and fixed him with an eyeless gaze as her head tilted, silently indicating that she was open to answering more questions, if he had them.

Zephiros nodded, the answers seemed to satisfy him. He would take a look at the pay on the third page of the contract. The amount he would be paid to start was surprising in of itself, and his facial expressions would momentarily reflect his surprise. Indeed, if he was drinking something at that moment, he probably would have done a spit-take.
They would also provide him a place to stay and food, for that low of a price? The contract was as good as signed in Zephiros' eyes.
He would read the contract and the non-disclosure agreement real quick and sign them in a flowing and delicate calligraphy that would spell out Zephiros in fancy lettering. Once he was done he would look up at Takhana, pushing the stack of signed forms to the administrator who sat at his side.
"Ok then, does this mean I am now a Sun Marshal?" he asked, somewhat excited, though understandably so.

Taking the stack of parchment, she tapped that which remained.
"As soon as you fill out and sign this citizenship paperwork, it means you'll be a Recruit Marshal. You'll need to undergo some training to flesh out your abilities, and then in a few months, we'll reassess and possibly promote. For now, however..." Mana gathered within her body, and a thin tendril of flame appeared, flicking delicately across the surface of the badge sitting near her hand. It was inscribed with his name and rank, before she slid it over to him.
"This is your badge - the scarf will come when you've earned it. These two gems do very specific things: That one enhances your magical capabilities. This one connects you to our telepathy network. To use it, touch the gem, and think of who you want to speak with, and you'll be able to communicate. Until you get used to using it, it helps to speak aloud, although in time, you'll be able to converse silently, have multiple conversations at once, and even send images and impressions of emotion."

Zephiros would take a look at the citizenship papers. He had totally forgot about them in his rush to fill out the paperwork specifically for becoming a Sun Marshal. He forgot he needed to become an Isran citizen before though.
"Yes, of course..." he muttered as he looked over the papers and then filled out the required fields. Once that was done he would present it as well to Takhana, and then pick up the Marshal badge and take a closer look at the two gems. He would definitely have to test it out later.
"I would also like to get a place to stay here at the headquarters... it would be cheaper than anything I find in the city," he said.

Grandma strolled towards the Sun Marshal Headquarters, cane clicking on the ground as she approached the double doors leading into the building. She hadn’t yet visited this place despite being made a Sun Marshall by Naoki some time ago, however, there was a reason for that. Due to the rather unusual circumstances and the fact she didn’t exactly plan on taking part in the normal Sun Marshall activity, she had decided her presence might cause unnecessary friction and decided it would be the best to stay away from the Headquarters.
However, she had heard the Sun Marshal’s might be receiving some new recruits from the tournament that had been hosted. It was for that reason she came here, to pick up a recruit and give them a bit of training. Although Grandma didn’t often train people, she thought it would be an amusing way to pass the time and also strengthen the Sun Marshal’s, which is turn strengthened Naoki.
Pushing open one of the doors, Grandma entered the entrance room. Assuming Thaelyn was present, Grandma would stride over to the woman, taking out her badge to confirm her identity before speaking.
“Senior Marshal Grandma here, I’d like to request a list of the current new recruits.”

"Of course. Thaelyn can show you to our empty rooms and explain how to claim one. Here's a list of the courses you'll be taking to broaden the scope of your abilities. Try to be at as many of the training sessions as you can." Takhana handed him a sheet of paper with a list of classes, times, and places, then tucked the forms he'd signed into her portfolio. With that in hand, she stood, and gave him a smile.
"Welcome to the Sun Marshals, Zephiros. If you need anything at all - supplies, recommendations, directions, what have you - just speak with Thaelyn. If she can't help you, I can. Have a nice day." Inclining her head to the man in a nod, she then turned and vacated the room, tracing her steps back to the tower door and ascending the steps. She was always doing something.

Thaelyn looked up at Grandma when the woman approached and blinked. At the explanation of who she was and why she was there, the blood mage lit up with a smile.
"Ah! Of course. One moment..." The perky redhead rifled through her desk drawers until she located a sheet of paper, whereupon she proffered the complete list of recruits to the Senior Marshal. The ones who had an assigned Senior Marshal trainer were denoted, but so were the ones without - including Zephiros.
"Anything else I can do for you, ma'am?"

Zephiros would wave goodbye as Takhana left, taking a moment to see what classes he was taking. He would make sure he went to every single one, even though it seemed they were lenient on attendance.
Walking out of the library into the foyer once again he would see Thaelyn was talking with an old woman at the desk.
"Hello," Zephiros would say in a friendly tone, before moving to stand behind Grandma and wait to speak to Thaelyn. He had no idea the old woman in front of him could be the senior marshal that would be training him.

Grandma would glance curiously at Zephiros as he entered the room, getting a glimpse of his badge as she did so. Well, it seemed the one she would be training was already here, excellent. She would offer a quiet greeting in return at his ‘hello’.
“Yes, there is one other thing. Please denote that I will be training Zephiros for the time being, who going by his badge, is the young man behind me.”
Turning around, Grandma would look him up and down.

"Alright, I'll be sure to give this to the High Marshal and the Administrator for their records." She glanced up and leaned to one side to peer around Grandma at Zephiros.
"Did you need help with something, Marshal Zephiros?"

"Uh... hello Grandma," he said, trying to sound friendly. At least her name is quite fitting.
Zephiros' attention would be caught by Thaelyn again as she called him, and he would walk up to the desk next to Grandma,
"Yes! Actually, I did need help. I need a room to stay in here at headquarters."

On her wrist is a silver bracelet with a ruby in it that Grandma uses for telepathic communication with others in its network.

Grandma made for the door, she would have Zephiros come and meet her when he was settled down. She also planned to train him in various places around the city, not at the Sun Marshal Headquarters.
“Once you’ve settled down and got everything in order Zephiros, meet me at the Midnight Sun. Just tell one of the servers you’re there to meet me and they’ll bring you up to my rooms.”
Remembering her manners, Grandma also looks over to Thaelyn.
“Also, thank you for your assistance with this, secretary.”
Offer a wave of farewell to the both of them, she headed out the door.

Thaelyn Mortris
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 310
Age: 22
Physical Description: At 5'7", Thaelyn is just above average height for a woman, with a slender build that makes her just shy of willowy. Slight curves and a womanly shape keep her from looking boyish, if only barely. She has long red hair that falls to her knees, and rich crimson eyes that are usually filled with curiosity, set in a face with delicate features.
-------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Typically, Thaelyn wears a set of white and blood red armor which is inscribed inside with a complex series of magical runes. This provides her armor with a strength that belies its lightness, as well as serving as a sort of magical buffer that wards off most spells. She also carries a spear, or perhaps it's a staff - she seems to use it as a combination of both, using it both to fight and to channel her own magical abilities.

"Oh, of course! Just come with me, please, and we'll get you all set up." She rose from her seat and started toward the stairs, but stopped when Grandma made her farewells, grinning and waving exuberantly to the woman.
"Have a nice day, ma'am!" With that, Thaelyn started up the stairs, gesturing for Zephiros to accompany her. Once he followed, she'd lead him up to the second floor, gesturing toward one of the hallways off the main lounge area.
"All the rooms down that way are vacant, so you'll have your pick. They're all identical, too. To choose one, just put your hand on the door - it'll take a few seconds to register your energy signature, but after that, the room will be all yours. No one except the High Marshal or the Administrator will be able to go in without your permission. You can decorate however you want, and if there's anything you need or want, just get a message to me in some way or another and I'll see to it you get it. There's kitchen staff here at all times, so if you get hungry, just ask them for something. Any questions?"

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.

"Seriously?!"
Jun was striking up a conversation with one of the Sun Marshall staff when it was let slip that Alden was dating. "Who? Er, how?" She meant no offense, but Alden had always seemed rather mechanical and closed off. Not that he wasn't a friendly person. In fact Jun found him most agreeable, especially when they first met. For some reason Jun had just always assumed that dating was more or less beneath the ultimate assassin.
***
The next day Jun would appear in Alden's office, holding a lumpy looking brown package. She'd knock on the door to see if the pickle-jar-breaking-capable-forehead man was available.
"Hello, Commander Alden, sir?"

Alden Marshal
Widely Known
Roleplay posts: 1,420
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.

Alden was staring at his usual mountain of paper worked. He'd gotten better at filling it out but it was still very boring. The knock at the door is unexpected. He didn't have any appointments today did he? His mind flicks back to the schedule he'd prepared in the morning, he didn't. In theory, that meant he should turn whoever was at the door away. But talking was better than paperwork and he liked being seen as at least somewhat approachable. So he calls out with some injected good humor.
"Come in."

Jun carefully creaked open the door and popped her head in. "Hello Alden." She said with a wave and a devilish grin.
She stepped lightly into the office and smirked slightly at the mountain of paperwork that Alden had allowed to pile up, again. It was well known in the organization that Alden hated paperwork. She approached him and carefully held out the package in her arms.
"So, I know this is somewhat irregular, and perhaps even borderline inappropriate, but I heard you were dating someone and, well, in my culture it's not uncommon for young people to give each other presents of well-wishing. So, I got something for you." She held up the package.
If he were to go ahead and open it, he would find an interesting assortment of colorful flowers, most of which were not native to Isra.
"The yellow one makes a good perfume when boiled. The white ones are cooking ingredients. A lot of times people will share each other's cooking or teach each other how to make things when dating someone, again at least in our culture. So, I just thought that might be useful. Uh, the red one is..." Jun's face turned red slightly. "Well it's a tea for uh..." She strained. "Er, you'll like it. Just make sure both of you drink it at the same time, in your spare time. The blue one makes a calming tea in case you guys get into arguments, you know, inevitable. Uh... I think that's about it. The smaller ones are just for good luck."

Alden's visitor proved to be Jun one of the first recruits they'd brought on board. He remembers their meeting though it had been some time since they'd talked. He raises an eyebrow in surprise as Jun speaks. Not because he is surprised she'd heard. No, he was familiar with the concept of gossip even if he didn't indulge. He is surprised the girl felt the urge to come visit him and even bring a gift. A slight note of confusion enters the High Marshal's friendly tone as he responds.
"That is very thoughtful of you Jun. It's a lovely gift, perhaps I can plant a few of these in my garden."
