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.

"Oh, of course! I didn't even know you had a garden. If I did I would have brought you some seeds and things. How interesting. You don't seem the type."
Jun wasn't even sure what she meant by that.
"I hope you're not offended by me saying that. I don't know much about you at all, not that I think about it." She nervously parted some strands of hair out of her line of sight. Alden intrigued her. He seemed almost like he was from another world. Everything from his runes to his general demeanor was unfamiliar to her, a another mystery waiting to be solved, just like all the other civilizations and people she had encountered. Just getting to know him better would qualify as an adventure to her.

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 eyes Jun curiously, she was an odd one that was for sure. Though he was kind of curious what kind of person seemed like the type to tend a garden. He'd thought hobbies were just things anyone could do and you didn't have to seem one way or the other.
"I don't see why that would offend me, It's the truth. We've only had a single conversation and it didn't relate to my personal life. I think I would be more offended if you did assume to know me well."
Alden gives her a friendly smile as he'd meant that last part as a joke.

Jun chuckled. "I guess that's true." Alden continued to defy expectations in terms of friendliness. "I'm glad you like the gift. When I get the chance I'll send you some seeds to experiment with."
Jun uneffusively tapped the tips of her fingers together and looked around the room before continuing. "Well, uh, if you have any spare time sometime I'd love to hear your story. Mine's probably on file somewhere. You probably know more about me than I do."
She was suddenly conscious of her habit of gesticulating while speaking and clasped her hands behind her back.

Zephiros

Roleplay posts: 55
Age: 19
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.

"Nope! Thanks Thaelyn," he said, picking the first room. They were apparently all the same anyways.
He would look over his room real quick but otherwise wouldn't settle in just yet as he would leave pretty soon to go meet Grandma.

"I'd like that. I enjoy gardening it an excellent way to spend time with my kids."
Alden says this offhandedly unaware that Jun probably didn't know he had kids. Another revelation that would likely make the young woman reel in surprise. He chuckles lightly as jun realizes she'd been waving her hands around and clasps them around her back. Though after a moment's consideration, a dark look appears in his eyes. The smile fading and a certain hardness tinging his voice.
"I doubt you'd appreciate my story Jun. It isn't pleasant."

He has kids too.Jun really had to try to conceal the fact that she had just been mentally floored. Literally every assumption she had made about him had been completely wrong. Alden wasn't a hard-hearted cold-blooded general-type figure at all. Aside from the fact that he could probably fight 20 people at once using martial arts, he wouldn't have been out of place living in an Isranian suburb surrounded by merchant-class families. She only nodded politely, as if Alden having children was as common knowledge as the sky being blue. "Right, of course."
But then his tone shifted. Not appreciate his story? After hearing about how he was a family man with a garden? How bad could his story be?
"Oh. Well, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't curious, by virtue of the fact that you just said that, but... It's fine, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to... I, I guess I should leave you to your paperwork. Uh, take care." She started to turn around to leave.

"I didn't saw I wouldn't share it. I said you might not appreciate it since it isn't particularly pleasant. If you are that curious though feel free to stop by my home some evening. I don't mind sharing the story."
The words are said simply and with a slight tone of curiosity. Evidently, Jun took gentle discouragement as outright rejection. A trait unbefitting of a marshal. She'd have to have that trained out of her at some point. Since she seemed to be taking her leave he turns his attention back to his paperwork. As much as he loathed filling out forms it needed to be done.

<A few weeks later> Jun had returned to the Sun Marshall headquarters and once again made way for Alden's office. This time she was in uniform and carrying several books, as well as two unusual magical artifacts. They were shaped like wands, but bigger, and inscribed with various intricate runes. She also had a notebook filled with notes. Finally there was an odd document which, upon closer inspection, was a disclaimer form. Her face was quite grim. She knocked on Alden Marshal 's door.

"Come in."
Alden's voice comes out distracted as he is currently pouring over a mission report. He was trying to determine if what the Marshal had done had been warranted. Well, Marshals could do almost anything in the course of their duty the still had to be held culpable if they went to extremes that could have been avoided. For example, torching a village to capture a single target was an unacceptable solution even if it worked. At least not if you hadn't tried something more reasonable first. He flicks an eye up to Jun as she enters, again without an appointment.
"Marshal what do you need?"

Jun took a deep breath. She was nervous about this, but after days of hesitating, she decided this would be a worthwhile project. "Well, I have a rather peculiar request I'd like to make." She set the items down and laid them out plainly on the table. "I was doing some research in Isra's library, and I found very little research on the treatment of torture victims. The few books I did find were more concerned with administering torture and the history of torture than the recovery process. I thought for days about whether or not something could be done about this, and I came to a realization. I, and many others, don't know what it's like to experience something like what you've experienced. If more people did understand, I feel that atrocities like what you described would be less likely to happen. At the very least there would be more pressure to weed them out, and maybe more public support for Lady Naoki's human rights proclamation. To that end, I had the agent 'Grandma' of the Black Tower make these..."
She pointed to the two strange devices. "These devices can be used to record the thoughts and feelings of someone with their consent."
She bit her lower lip and gave Alden a hesitant look. "You don't have to give away your identity, but, I think it would be great if more people knew about your story. So with your permission... I'd like to use your story to write about recovery and healing. I wanna write a book about human rights violations. The refugees from Goraia would benefit a great deal more from something like this rather than say, retribution against their government. Justice is important. But I wanna do something more. I wanna help people in a way no one-" she gestured to the pile of books on Alden's desk "-to my knowledge at least, has ever done..."
After the inevitable awkward pause Jun would say, "This is a silly idea isn't it?"

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.

Alde looks at the devices then at Jun, then raises an eyebrow. His voice is colored by his confusion as he says slowly.
"You want me to recite my story in full, with every detail I can recall, well using this device to record my emotions as I speak, and you will write down what I have to say and make it into a book. Is that correct?"

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 nodded. "That's the gist of it, yes. Of course it doesn't have to be now, or all in one day. I just wanted to show you the magic devices and make you aware of my idea. Remember, it's not just your story I'm interested in, but the process by which you've been recovering, regaining your identity, learning to have a normal healthy family life. That's the part I think will help people the most."
Jun leaned closer against the table and, almost whispering, said squeamishly, "Do you think this is a good idea? Like, the generally concept? I really wanna know you're opinion on the matter."

Alden looks at the Jun and frowns as he mulls it over. Eventually, he shrugs.
"I have no idea if it's a good idea or not. But I suppose it might help someone at some point, so it's worth trying. We can schedule some time where we can go over the story in more detail. I honestly have no idea what this will achieve but I guess we will see."
With that Alden turns back to his paperwork, he clearly considers the matter closed for the moment.

Takhana Veil
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 312
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 contacted Kaylie Imrahil via the telepathy network.
"Marshal Imrahil, please meet me in the first floor library immediately." Exiting her office with a scroll in hand, Takhana moved to the library in question and waited for Kaylie to join her.

Kaylie came skidding around the corner into the library, gear hastily thrown on and two full quivers stacked, one on her back and the other across her hip. Her bow was in her hand as she threw the door open and sat down in haste.
"You called for me Lady...er...mistress...er...ma'am. Boss. You called for me Boss?"

Takhana's ears twitched, and her brows raised in amusement, invisible as they were thanks to the blindfold. The smile that appeared on her lips was very visible, however. Reaching under the edge of the table, she activated the silence ward around the table, then handed the scroll to Kaylie.
"Thank you for being so prompt, Marshal. I have a very important task for you. I need you to meet with a trio of rangers at the edge of the Winterlands and go with them to the location marked on that map, via the directions provided on said map. There, you'll find individuals who are going to help us remove the regime of Goraia and restore the proper Medanese line to the throne. Take this with you and once you can establish a secure forward base, install it and channel a bit of mana to activate it." This was said as she handed Kaylie a small metallic circle, topped with a shining clear crystal.
"I'll give you a full brief and description of who you're looking for and what's to be done en route. Any questions?"

Kaylie looked at Takhana for a moment, surprised to have been given such a momentous task. She didn't understand half of the reasoning for it, at all, only vaguely noted the difference between Medan and Goraia, but Goraia's regime had been bad for business during her bandit days so she had no problem with this.
"Got it, go to the Winterlands, meet Rangers, follow map, be diplomatic with individuals, and establish a forward camp, oh, and then contact you to tell you that we have done so. So I don't think I have any questions. I can leave immediately."

"Excellent. Retrieve anything you need and leave immediately. Good luck and godspeed, Marshal Imrahil." Takhana nodded firmly, then reached under the table and deactivated the rune. She was free to go, and she should move quickly.
