Physical Description: Royal is a pale boy with dark bags under his bluish eyes, an unfortunate result of too many days spent staring at books indoors by candlelight. He's thin, of slightly below average height, and has white hair.
Clothes and Equipment: Roy carries around an enchanted parasol at all times, which floats above him and shields him from the sunlight. He also has a sword, a gift from his cousin Roxanne. His pockets are always filled with an unreasonable amount of chocolate, and he usually has some sort of cake or other baked goods on his person.

The Fletcher family is one of the oldest and biggest in the land. A massive family of white-haired people who all seem to carry candy with them at all times. They're spread all over the world, but this will always be home to them: a massive estate out in the country with huge tracks of land surrounding it. White-haired children play in the gardens, or run around the lands, while serfs work the fields. The serfs, like all good serfs, pay their taxes and rent by giving a share of the crops to the Fletchers. The manor is on top of a hill, with the farms extending from the base of the hill. Corn fields are to the east, south, and west, and strawberry fields are to the north. There are always people walking around outside the manor: guards, family members, and staff. There are ten full-time guards on duty, as well as a whopping forty members of staff. The total count of Fletchers is unknown, as they tend to come and go regularly.

Rowena wanders the grounds, smiling peacefully. It's so nice here, with all the kiddies and birds and cats. The staff is a bit incompetent sometimes, but usually they're not too bad either. She sits down in her armchair and opens a letter from one of her grandchildren.
"Hmm...Roy's a vampire. Strange, he's usually not that careless."

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.

While on her way to find a dragon to help teach her draconic magic, Jun came across a large, strange looking mansion. She wasn't used to seeing dwellings like this, which seemed more well suited for royalty than just normal people. She shrugged it off and decided to check out the place.
"Oh, hello madam. I'm Jun and I'm new to this area. Who are you?"

Rowena smiles. Usually she turns away foreigners, but her vision's been going lately. And anyway, it's been so long since anyone has visited...
"Hello there, Jun! I'm Rowena Fletcher, but most folks just call me Granny. Don't stand out there, come inside! You must be famished."
She opens the door and ushers Jun in.
"Come in! It's been so long since I had a visitor."
A small, white-haired child runs past.
"Easy there, Riven. You'll make yourself dizzy, running around like that. Anyway, it's not polite to the guest."
Rowena turns to Jun apologetically.
"I'm terribly sorry. A few of my children live here, along their children. I love them all dearly."
She glances around, an annoyed expression on her face.
"Now where are my manners? I should have someone here to take your coat...excuse me. CALLIE! GET OVER HERE!"
Her voice is surprisingly loud for such a tiny woman.
"I'm sorry...it's so hard to get good help nowadays."

A flustered, overworked-looking young woman in a maid's outfit runs up.
"Terribly sorry, ma'am. I was dusting the armor."
She turns to Jun.
"I'll take your coat, miss. Is there anything I can get you? A drink?"

She was caught off guard by the sudden hospitality. "Umm, yah sure! Whatever you have a surplus of."
She spotted Riven and smiled endearingly. She hadn't interacted with small children in a while. "Your kids are lovely. I think I've heard the Fletcher name get dropped around. What's your family about?"

"Oh, my family's everywhere. You know how it goes. We're a big clan, us Fletchers. We're everywhere and everything. Some Fletchers are mages, some shopkeepers, some adventurers...my grandson is even a vampire! Imagine that, a vampire."
She chuckles.
"Oh, look at me. Talking your ear off. Tell me, Jun. What do you do for a living?"
She turns to Callie the maid.
"And what are you doing still standing here, girl? You heard her. Get her a nice glass of Medanese gold from the cellars."

"Well, I'm a mage, and I also run errands for the Princess of Medan. I'm her bodyguard and lady in waiting. Aside from that I tutor and take odd jobs." She smiled, somewhat proud of her accomplishments. "Right now however I'm on a personal mission. I'm looking to become more powerful. My last mission with the princess was a failure and I feel like I need to grow more."
She was surprised at Granny's mention of Medanese Gold. "That's a pretty high end item to have a surplus of isn't it?"

"Heh heh heh...oh, don't worry about it, dearie. My children and grandchildren keep me very well supplied in here."
She smiles sweetly.
"Oh, a mage? I'm sure you'll get better with practice. And a tutor? A teacher? Lovely! Maybe you could teach the children a thing or two, heh heh. And there's no shame in odd jobs. I used to do a bit of that myself in my younger days. I was quite the adventurer. Traveling all over the world...ah, listen to me. I'm an old relic. I'm sorry about your mission failing, though.
She glances around impatiently.
"Where is that maid? She's so slow."

"I could always use the extra money. Sure, I'd be happy to teach your kids. And if you need any other help around the house maybe I could do that too."
She wasn't in a hurry and displayed no discomfort in waiting for a drink. "I do hope your employees are treated well." She winked. "And don't feel bad. The mission failed largely because we were interrupted by a powerful dark entity, some kind of evil-hunting wraith. But luckily no one was killed, and, well it's complicated. Let's just say it may have worked out for the best."
She thought of her friend Jill and how she ran off with her sister. Their civilization did need that artifact more than Medan she supposed.

"Oh, excellent! The kiddies will love you."
Granny smiles.
"Oh no, there's no need for you to help out around the house. That's what the help is for, incompetent as they may be. That's good, that it worked out. You never can tell with those wraiths. Never liked them. They're almost as bad as elves, or foreigners."
Granny walks to a large dining room with a massive, intimidating-looking table.
"Go on, sit down. You must be famished. I'll have the cooks make you something nice."
She tuts away any protest from Jun, saying "Oh, nonsense."

Jun couldn't believe her luck. A new job and free food. "I'll take anything you have. I'm not picky about food. As for your kids, well, we'd have to figure out a number of things, like how much of an affinity for magic they have and what sort of elements they're aligned towards. It's true that with some hard work anyone can do anything, but it's always best to play with your strengths."
This was nice. She didn't get to discuss the technicalities of magic very often. "Do you have any experience with magic?"

"Me? Oh no. No, magic was never for me. I defended myself with that."
Rowena points to the fireplace, where a massively oversized sword hangs. To say it is huge would be a gross understatement. It's twice granny's height, and looks to be made for a giant.
"Good ol' Grunhilda. I took so many monster heads with that beauty...now look at me. An old woman reminiscing about the old days. But enough talk. There's the food!"

A maid in a starched uniform walks in, followed by a tall manservant in a crisp black suit. Both are carrying large covered platters. The platters are placed in front of Jun, and the covers are lifted, revealing a roasted chicken, several baked potatoes loaded with stuffings, a selection of veggies seemingly only there for decoration, and two enormous loaves of bread. A third servant appears, carrying a bowl of tomato soup. It is also placed in front of Jun. Her wine glass is refilled as well.
"Please enjoy your meal, miss."

"Thank you so much! Yum!" She dug into the food, remembering the table manners that Camilla had taught her so as to not look like an uncultured buffoon, even though that's more or less what she was.
Unfortunately there was one social norm she still wasn't quite clear on. She hung her head low and whispered to Granny's ear. "I really hate to ask this but, should I give our server a small token of gratuity?"

She gives another kindly smile.
"How's the food, dearie? We have an expert chef all they way from the Free City. Don't worry, he's one of us. Not a foreigner."
She beams as Jun digs into the food.
"I'm glad you like it. My, you must have been famished. Doesn't your employer feed you?"

"Heh, of course she does. I guess spell casting burns a lot of calories!" She dug in.
After a few minutes of food and wine, she remembered something odd about what Granny said. "So I take it you don't consider Medan or the Free City to be foreign. Just how far removed does one have to be to be considered foreign? What about Katashima and the uncharted lands farther East?"
She was born in the Land-Tiller's Expanse after all, which up until its alliance with the Phoenix State was mostly isolated and uncharted. She was starting to feel a tad insecure.

"Oh, you know. Katashima, the Phoenix state, those people from the jungles...that sort of thing. Asgeir is foreign, but they're the good sort. Lovely people, the Varans. You know how it is. But enough of my prattling. Eat! Eat! Your soup will get cold, dearie."
A small, white-haired child peeks around the corner, then walks over cautiously.
"Er...could I have some of your chicken, ma'am?"
Rowena gasps.
"Reggie! How rude! She's a guest. Go to the cook and ask him to fix you something if you're hungry, or wait for dinner. Didn't you just eat?"
She turns to Jun apologetically.
"Please forgive my great-grandson. You know how they are at that age. You feed them and feed them, and it's never enough. They're always hungry."
She chuckles.
"So, what sort of things can you teach?"
