Pact Price: A silver furred cave-wolf, every month. They're big wolves but move too fast and hide in caves Hev cannot get to. So he's happy for his monthly meal when he gets it. Anything else: Hevnaar got hurt when he was younger, and has a large scar over his left eye, scales do not grow back in that area so he tends to be very defensive over that spot since it's the (khv won't let me say this word) in the armor so to speak.

Characters Name: Verus Milne Characters Age: 21 Character Race: Human Characters Gender: Male Characters Appearance: lel Characters Personality: Verus is a very loyal man and he works too hard, where he needs to be told to stop and rest or he very well may not. He's a curious mind, wanting to learn more about things probably best forgotten. He's not much of a troublemaker, but he will speak out of turn if something truly seems off about what is being said. Otherwise, he tends to be quite, and more willing to accept his place in society. Role in Society: Farmer Do You Have Any Weapons: A sword, given to him by his father for his quest. It's not a magnificently made sword but it is clearly one that has seen combat and can survive longer.

Dragon Strength to Magic: 9 magic, 1 strength Dragons Personality: Iilah is a very sly dragon and a troublemaker. She's not afraid to speak her mind, even in times where it would be respectful not to. She's very protective of her property, and views Verus as property in instances where dragons get too close or comfortable. Pact Price: Verus' left pinky finger. Anything else: Iilah is one of the few albino dragons. Sometimes she gets herself dirty intentionally so people won't turn their eyes at her.
Take found himself trailing more towards the back of the group and constantly looking over his shoulder to make sure no one unfamiliar followed. He wasn't particularly fond of the circumstances but he figured if everyone was forward facing, that would be a problem in itself. But it turned out the enemy wasn't behind or in front, they were above. Take kind of rolled his eyes at the thought the enemies always come from above. He summoned out his keyblade and got into a bit of a defensive stance before figuring out which group of the Thrusters to go after. Once he knew, he set a foot behind him to steady himself for a charge, and he charged at a group. Take tried to isolate some of them from the rest of the group as he got in a few good hits with the first two heartless. Then he tripped up a bit, and found himself having to dodge roll to evade an attack before he swiped up again, not afraid to jump up to hit him. This was his kind of style to fight in, going for the aerial enemies while keeping a good footing on the ground in order to not be knocked over. Once he got three or four more. He stopped to check behind him to make sure the others were doing alright before chiming out, "Is it just me, or are these guys was easier than the other ones?" before he got his last few heartless in before he knew he had to tactically back up. He tried to at least get in an area where he could take the attack of the heartless if the others didn't kill them fast enough. Heartless Killed: 10 Heartless Remaining: 80 HP: 20 AP: 0
@Aelin FireHeart Here's a picture of your favorite cinnamon roll. I made it just for you. May our days be as sweet as our sephy sweet treat. cstar. ps. please don't kick me out of bed for this.
Take revved up those fryers and followed the group, and that's it because there's no actual other input I can put into the scenario but Arch wants me to post and hasn't posted in my rp so I'm doing this entirely to make a point and I really just wanna see plot happen but nooo he has to wait for me to write "and then take followed into the cave" ahaha **** all this.

Mora dropped quite a bit from the ladder but clung onto it and she looked over at Alder, shaking and climbed up a little more. She took a deep breath and her physical shaking stopped but her voice still sounded shaky and hoarse as she asked, "W-would I? Or would you guys just kill me?" it was a genuine fear and her climbing up more so she wasn't in Alder's arm reach affirmed that as she added, "I-I mean, I did just try to kill you..." --- Ria was very silent after that exchange with himself. He stood up and stared off as the heartless backed away. Ria turned around and looked over at the house Chrys was in and he said, "So that's where you ran off to, huh?" Ria walked over and seemed to reach out before there was a quick pained reaction from Ria as he held his hand, "You managed to...." he stopped before he gave away information. He backed up and reached out towards the heartless to recharge a little more, "I'm not gonna give you that bit of information. Why don't you come out here friend, before I destroy more of yours... I believe there's only... four of you left? Well, five, technically. But that one's a traitor." Ria lifted his hand up towards his own head and poked a bit and said, "And he looks just like this. 'les ya don't believe me? In which case." Ria summoned out their keyblade and said, "Allow me to give you... a little gift." and he pressed the keyblade up to his own heart and a memory began to pour out. --- The entire party remembers this memory: The cave everyone woke up in was well lit and the extractor was letting out a slight hum, indicating it was operational but at rest. The entire party was gathering in as Chloe, Chrys, Kara, Marley, and Xen entered. Kara walked on over and said with a strong aura of authority, "We finished bringing everyone to the sanctuary. Every villager is accounted for. We should be clear for destroying the machine..." Kara looked over at one particular person and said, "We're ready when you are, Aevum." Walking into the middle of the group, Aevum stepped up, and for everyone, the familiarity of seeing Chrono and associating it with the name Aevum was normal. Aevum took a deep breath and said, "Great. You all remember the formation Alder suggested to prevent a potential heartless attack. Right? Well, now's the time to get into it." Everyone began to walk into a semicircle type position, facing away from the extractor. The exception to this was Aevum who placed their hand on the extractor and said, "Alright, I'm starting it now. Be ready." and he flipped a switch that caused it to begin. Darkness began to swarm towards the area, lightly, like little particles of dirt heading towards the extractor. Then heartless began to appear and Cerdic shouted excitedly, "Let's do this!" before charging at one of the heartless in advance and Alder shouted, "In formation, Cerdic!" "It's fine, Alder. He's got it." Kara tried to reassure as Cerdic got the heartless and backed back into line and swiped his hair back, "Yeah, I've got it." A couple more heartless began to pour in and suddenly Aevum said, "Take a step out, now!" as the machine grew louder. The group did as they were told and these was a noise that came from Xen who grabbed his heart and said, "S-something... something feels off..." "Keep going!" Chrys shouted as a large amount of heartless began to enter and the fighting continued until Relli let out a yell and dropped to the ground clutching their chest. Daeni heard the scream and tried to run over but Alder yelled, "Stay in your spot Daeni!" before he ran on over in front of Relli. Alder ran on over to stand in front of the heartless to protect Relli but the heartless ran past, into the circle, not even attempting to attack the party. Chloe noticed this and said, "Wait, I thought the heartless wanted us to stop using the machine, but he just..." Chloe turned around to look at the machine and so did Chrys as the heartless began to float, and dissipate into darkness and Aevum quickly pressed a button which led to everyone suddenly feeling pain in their chests as they watched the darkness floating out of their chests. The pain was incredible, immobilizing everyone so they were on their knees on the ground. Not everyone had turned around. Some people already passed out. "Stop this now. It hurts!! Aevum stop!" Daeni started screaming as she tried crawling over with all of the energy she could, but she just ended up passing out. "We trusted you! How could you betray us like this! Aevum!" Aevum looked over at the voice who shouted these words, it was Cerdic, and they looked at him with a bit of a smirk and he said loudly for everyone to hear, "This will work, we have so much power at our disposal, how could we reject it? Isn't it great to lose that darkness anyway? You're just giving it to me... think of it like giving me a disease." "Give back what is mine!" Cerdic screamed before passing out. Chrys seemed to stare forward, as his vision blurred and others passed our around him. Then someone ran straight at Aevum and pushed him. But the scene was dark and the last thing that could be heard in the memory, was the sound of Aevum screaming.
Kaida hadn't expected to be so quickly arrested when they were identified as foreign entities. Usually in a world, no one knew they weren't from there, they never found out and their leaving usually happened without conflict. But these people expected it, perhaps it was because of the inter-connectivity to the other games? She didn't know but she tried struggling a little bit against them when they were arrested. When they were pushed into the coliseum, Kaida looked around at the scene a little bit confused as she listened to the announcer speak. Something about a Turbo situation? Before booing ensued and objects were thrown and she ducked her head to dodge a couple. Watching a flying shoe head towards Beuce and hit him and she hoped it didn't hurt too bad She listened to this man's challenge, of course they were warned in advance about them, well at the very least it would make this more streamlined if it was an offer. And hey, she was willing to play a game against opponents for the password, she figured she could take 'em. That was when they revealed the opponents and her heart sank. She didn't really know one of them, she vaguely recognized Anora, but Cat and Etrius she definitely remembered and she stepped a bit closer and she said, "Cat! Etrius! Is that you?!" she hoped it was some sort of illusion or trick to make them feel worse about who they were fighting, but she hadn't seen them in so long that she hadn't the slightest idea if they were illusions or the real thing.
Mora looked over at Chrono when he asked about the crystals and said, "They've been there the whole time... the crystals..." she noticed at that point 3 crystals were broken, so she did her best to struggle and she got out and weakly fell to the ground. She looked over at the rest of them, and in a moment unsure of what they would do to her for all that, she tried to run off. But she was slow to it. Ria had not reappeared yet, which was probably a good thing. Mora got up to the ladder and tried to climb but she did not have much strength to really move at a brisk pace. -- Meanwhile, up on the outside near where Chrys was hiding. Ria appeared, coughing and scared and knelt down on the ground to try and conserve energy. Some of the heartless walked on over and seemed to disappear into darkness, and Ria began to absorb them. Ria pulled back their hood and their face was covered in sweat, but his face was definitely just plainly Chrono's face. There were slight changes, his nose was a bit more swelled up and his eyes were a golden color, but there was no real mistake. Ria looked at their hands as they recharged and said, "I should have let them keep some of it, in case something like this happened... so their light wouldn't be so strong... damn it." "You shouldn't have killed them. It wasn't your right. I hate the fact you did this." "I hate the fact you're still in my head." "You're the one keeping us all here. You wouldn't have a problem if you let go." "Don't kid yourselves. You think after all of this I'm just gonna throw everything away?" "We're your friends..." "...if you were really my friends, you would have understood why I did this."

Never.
Kaida's silence for the most part had been trying to figure out exactly what was going on. The world splitting seemed weird compared to the other ones, and after she felt herself being led into one of the worlds by Luna at that point anyway. She hadn't fully seen what group went in there before her so she didn't know who the other 2/4 was, but she knew she'd figure it out soon anyway. Besides, better to just get started than wait around for her to mentally process everything. Upon entering the world, Kaida immediately realized her attire changed just by walking on in. She moved her hands up to her head to feel the helmet, since it immediately felt heavier to her and she wanted to adjust it, and the neon glow to the outfit she thought was pretty cool. She heard Luna ask a question, and heard a response from Beuce, which caused her to look up and see Beuce were with her. Even if she wasn't sure what her relation with Ignis was yet, she was content that Beuce was at least there, since she knew he had her back at least. Kaida thought about Luna's question and said, "Well, they did mention us being in a... game of some kind before? So maybe we're in a computer? That's my best guess. Now, what exactly is going on inside the computer I have no idea..." Kaida looked around at the neon-city like environment and commented, "Seems very empty for a city though, and everything just seems so... dreary... oh no are we in some sort of dystopian future genre?"
Ria was a bit surprised to hear two offers come suddenly from Cerdic and Alder. Cerdic's answer seemed, unlikely, but quite possible. While Alder's certainly seemed likely, but Ria was not sure he needed it. Ria seemed to ponder for a moment before looking at Alder and saying, "While your offer is tempting and I believe you, it is not something I require. And, well to be frank my friend. I want you dead. Gone. Poof. Which is why Cerdic's little scheme with the journal is not going to give any of you a pass whatsoeve-" Ria heard a tearing noise, and looked over at Cerdic. He lowered his hand which stopped Mora from choking and instead made her cough, she looked drained and tired and Ria began to make their way towards Cerdic saying, "Ya know, I guess you're right. You did hide it somewhere, didn't you? Well, at least you didn't lie. Though, I'm not quite sure how I feel about you ripping up the pages. Therefore-" Ria lifted his hand and darkness from the circle came out and began to surround Cerdic. It was not nearly as paralyzing as the one in the circle, in fact with enough willpower Cerdic could probably escape. Ria walked on over and said, "I'll happily take the book from you now." There was a moment where Ria freed one of Cerdic's hands to reach the book, and Ria held their hand out as if ready to accept it, "I'll let you go, hero." But in an instant, Ria noticed Relli coming at him from the corner of his eye. Erratic, uncontrolled, and swinging the keyblade with as much force as possible, going straight for Ria's leg's like the last time Relli attempted. Though this time, it worked perfectly, as Ria's reaction time was not nearly as good after what happened with Marley. And Ria ended up losing their grip on Cerdic with the darkness, but he was able to at least push Cerdic away from him, just away from the group before falling down. Relli got on top of Ria and dropping the keyblade, began punching the lights out of the guy. Between each punch, Relli gritted their teeth as they commented, "I've had enough of your games! I've had enough of you killing everyone! I have had enough of not knowing what's going on! I've had enough of your ugly mug speaking with their know-it-all attitude." Relli gave one more solid punch before yelling, "Fuck you!" Ria laid on the ground for a moment to process it before chuckling a bit and saying, with Alder's voice, "You have no idea what you're dealing with, do you, Princey? If you did, you wouldn't have left your keyblade." Relli moved to go and summon it out once more before Ria grabbed Relli by the neck and darkness began to surround him and said, "At this rate, I'm gonna have to get rid of all of the ones I don't need to be rid of. But this is fine." Relli struggled to get out of his grasp, shaking uncontrollably and struggling before Relli looked tired out and seemed to slowly stop before Relli started to disappear into light as Ria said, "And... goodbye." he let go and Relli disappeared before Ria just kind of laid there on the floor, trying to catch their breath saying. They rolled over shaking, until they were at least on their hands and knees. Their breathing was heavy and they seemed to be struggling a lot before the ground turned to darkness and they disappeared into it. Trying to not show that much weakness anymore. Mora took a breath and said, "The- the crystals. There are five of them. One in each corner of the village, and one up there." Mora pointed up towards the top of the cave and said, "If... if you can break them, it should free the circle and we can get out of here... If we can only break a few, we might be able to struggle our way out of here without passing out..." Mora started shaking a lot before she started crying, "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry..."
Take listened to Tinarah express her feelings about Choma leaving and the fear of getting hurt. He understood this completely, not because he had this problem himself anymore, but he knew he used to. He was a bit hesitant to bring up the fact he was "used to it" as he didn't think that was going to help. Takehiko raised an eyebrow and asked, "You think Master Choma would leave us alone if he didn't think we were strong enough to handle ourselves?" he crossed his arms to think of some solution for her and said, "Tell you what. If you're worried about us getting hurt, how about you use that cure spell Choma just taught us and give it some practice so you can heal us better? Being a healer isn't any less important as someone out there and fighting... though..." Take stopped himself before he even stated his thoughts. He wasn't sure how to word it and he was worried he'd sound stupid. He tried to word it as best as he could in his head but instead it slipped out, "Sometimes people have to get hurt so they can learn how not to get hurt." once he said he it kind of stood there for a moment and said, "Iunno. Just. You can do this. Just..." he shook his head and said, "Just... you'll be fine." and he didn't really know what else to say.
Hey, so I started realizing recently that I've been listening to a lot of the same songs lately... or same types of songs. And I just have not really had the motivation to really go out of my way and search for new songs to listen to so I figured... why not ask everyone what they're listening to or what their favorite songs are, just so I can get some new songs to listen to and possibly find new artists and genres I didn't know I was into. I'm making the playlist on youtube, and making a little google doc that says the name, artist, what the genre is, (if applicable) whether or not the video has a big part in enjoyment of the song, and (if applicable) if the song is more of a song to listen to ironically. I know I'm putting this in spam zone, so I am prepared for ironic or meme type entries in here, that's fine. It would be nice though if you could tell me which of the songs you tend to listen to more ironically. So plugs your favorite bands, plug your favorite songs, plug your own songs, give me songs you hate to love or love to hate. Or just... don't give songs at all. But I will have the playlist and google doc available for anyone who just happens to also want to use it. I already put some of my personal favorites in there for anyone who would like to give those a listen. If I somehow max out the youtube playlist, I'll make a second one. I'm.. not sure I'm worried about that though. Thanks guys so much in advance. o7 Note: if the song you'd like to rec is not on youtube, just provide me a link and I'll find it, probably buy it if I have to, and add it to my personal dropbox mix instead. Google Doc Youtube Playlist
Aalis listened to the story intently, always fascinated by being able to learn a little more... then she got bored. She started fazing out, since all she was doing was standing there and listening to a story and not doing anything herself. Then the girl telling the story said she was the wind guardian. Convenient. Aalis rolled her eyes and said, "Yeah, and I'm the Spring Maiden or something... listen, I love stories but I don't see why this is relevant during orientation. Though, I'm glad I'm in the company of madmen I suppose." Uva listened to everything with a full fascination. The responses everyone was giving seemed rather lackluster and borderline offensive. So once Aalis spoke, Uva finally said something. Her voice was very soft, but it in no way sounded shy. It just seemed to lack any form of punch that would make her voice stand out, "I'm gonna bounce off the crazy one's commet... why tell us? We... we all just got here for orientation... we haven't even started classes or being sorted into teams... is this something you do for every freshman? This feels very diverted and exclusive and.... I'm not sure how I feel about that."
As the group went towards the circle, Marley had also joined keyblade in hand and skirted the edge looking for something to help. They moved on over towards Kara and said, "Hey, this isn't the time to sleep, wake u-" Just as Marley was about to finish, Mora quickly ran up out of the shadows and shoved Marley into the circle. Marley was quickly wrapped into it similarly to how the other three were. Mora had not accounted for how much space she had between the circle and the safe ground. She moved to try and run away, so none of the others could come after her for doing that. But her leg had crossed the circle and was wrapped in the same darkness that wrapped the others, and it tried pulling her in more. Mora was freaking out and trying to pull away from it and the struggling made her weak. A laugh echoed briefly before Ria appeared on the roof of one of the houses, keyblade in hand in case someone managed to get up to them and attack, "Thank you Mora for your help." "Let me out of this!" Mora looked scared, "We had a deal! I got the people you wanted, now let me and my village free." "I'll free the village, that's no problem. But I can't release the traps until you five are disposed of." "F-five?" Mora looked confused and then scared as she realized, "Wait, I thought we-" "I never agreed to let you go, Mora. You know far too much for me to keep you around. Besides, your village will still be spared, I just need someone for this who was previously not involved in our little experiment." Ria grinned a little bit before looking at the rest. "And hello to all of you. I have a deal for the three of you in here not in the trap. I'll let you three go, no tricks, no mess. I'll let you three leave this world and let you live a longer life. But there's only one condition... and it's a similar offer to what I said before." Ria began to propose to them. Marley struggled a little bit in their trap. Looking around for some form of help. The closest one to them was Daeni, and they began reaching on out over to them. "Give me that journal. Unless of course, Marley has it." Ria reached their hand towards the darkness and it swirled a little more, he moved his hand to Marley and tightened their fist. Marley began to start making a strangled noise. Struggling a little as if trying to free themselves from the darkness that took hold over them. Their hand that was reached towards Daeni immediately moving back towards their neck. Ria focused a little more and said, "Nope... not Marley." they released slightly and Marley took a gasp of air and looked tired. Ria looked back at the group and said, "One of you... wait..." Ria's eyes widened a little before asking, "Where's Chrys?" Ria suddenly looked angry and said, "ANOTHER COMPLICATION!" the fist tightened more and Marley started to make the noises again and Ria shouted, "Is this YOUR doing?! Did you set this up in case I did something JUST LIKE THIS?" Marley had no idea what he was talking about but the air was leaving them before saying, "You're not going to be a complication for me anymore, I'm sick of you ruining EVERYTHING!" Marley barely managed to speak out, "I-I don't.... know what... you're rambling... a.... about but.... I'm not... gonna...." Marley was losing air and consciousness before saying, "Let... yoU...." Marley managed to break out a little from the darkness grasp and his keyblade appeared in his hand. Ria's eyes widened as they shouted, "WHAT?!" Marley pointed it at Ria and managed out as light shined from the keyblade, "W-win..." and the key shot straight at Ria and knocked him powerfully off the roof. Ria went flying and Marley dropped their keyblade and looked over at Daeni weakly before Marley managed out at barely a whisper, "...broken..." before the darkness let Marley go completely and they fell. Their body disappearing into sparkles of light. At precisely that moment, Mora shouted, "The... there are shards that look like crystals... there's five of them powering-" Mora felt darkness wrap around her throat too, beginning to strangle her as Ria reappeared on the roof, looking quite off balance as they said, "My offer, still stands. You three will survive if you give me the journal, or tell me who has it. Then you can go..." --- The village still contains quite a bit of heartless, but there's a particular spot that the heartless seem to be avoiding. It's a tiny little house, and while Chrys does not know it, it happens to be the house that Mora had been hiding in before she began starting trouble. Perhaps, Ria put an order to not attack in that area. Maybe its a convenience the gods above made up because they never intended for people to stay with the heartless so there's no plot for you to participate in. Who knows. You can do whatever character development you want, or just... not post until after the others' event.
Ria heard the noises of the welcome intruders and vanished quickly into darkness, as if to hide. Not really paying attention to Alder and Chrono at that point. Once he had, the darkness almost encouraged Cerdic to try and come closer, as well as the rest of them. Mora had stared at Chrys, watching him fight, and knew she didn't have time to a slowpoke. She shifted to go into the ladder and slammed the trapdoor down, leaving Chrys alone with the heartless. She slid on down the ladder with practice, getting down to the rest of the group fairly quickly but staying in the shadows so Alder and Chrono could not see her. Marley looked out a little bit behind Cerdic's shoulder and said, "Hey... it looks like Alder, Chrono, and Kara are having fun." they said it pretty loud too, so the words echoed towards the other three.
