I approve of Zoey. Also, she had a lot of my Arte ideas. (drats.) But you beat me to the punch. However she isn't leaving for the pilgrimage just yet. She has to receive the Oracle from the Temple first. But yeah, Zoey is approved.I also find it funny how everyone is making fighters. Like there are no mages. Zoey will have new abilities due to plot reasons later. But still lol.


Edited bio for accuracy.

'That hothead makes an awful lot of assumptions about something we got absolutely no intel on.' Sigmund thought to himself, as he listened to Charles' tirade. Alive, powerful... What did they even know? All they knew was that it lured kids with the promise of love through song, but love could be a lie. Sigmund knew all about that, dismissing the thought before he'd rekindle more of his past. There were even animals and monsters who used pheromones to catch prey – a small fact he'd picked up on a past mission. Working with the library certainly had gotten Sigmund better at trivia. All in all, Charles' guess was as good as his own and when it came to gut instincts, Sigmund felt far better relying on himself. “Awful high and mighty, for someone who let's a kid do his job for him. You don't need them, hell you pulled out of their heads the second you were at risk. That face of yours should be red for a whole different reason.” The rook condemned Charles telepathically, as he continued his search mission; already too far away to hold a proper conversation.

“And another thing, you never place all your bets on a single horse. Even if I get these kids safe and you don't have the guts to take their place, we got Eidren up in the sky with those shiny eyes of his. You can find out a sound's location by stepping in the direction it's louder as well. Since you're obviously not going to be helping me, there's a hint to get you started.”

But I do require a chosen.


You called?
Name: Zoey Weaver
Nickname: -
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Occupation: None (student)
Housing: Under her parents' roof.

Appearance

Main Weapon (Primary): Shortbow
Sub Weapon (Primary): 'Boomstick' a self-made, although highly experimental weapon. By which I mean malfunctioning. Still, it's consistent ability to induce explosions gives a unique taste to artes... Which is quite worrying since it was supposed to become a toy for her kid brother... The boomstick is kept in Zoey's sleeve like a trump card, and somehow hasn't blown her hand off yet.

Type of Artes: Primarily ranged physical with a high amount of mobility options. A ranged, rapid-fire mix drawing inspiration from Hisui (Hearts) Alvin (Xillia) and Judith (Vesperia.)
Fighting Style: Runaway, strafe and strife, using the recoil from artes to move quickly or even maneuverer through the air! Ever saw someone rain fireworks down on you and use the blast to do a double jump? No? Well does Zoey have something in store for you! Many of her artes move her all over the battlefield, by the power of boomstick! This also causes many artes cast in conjunction with her self-made rod of destruction to have fire elemental properties.
Mystic Arte(s) : None yet.

Sexuality:

Hometown: Iselia

Weaknesses: Poor planning ability, no sense of direction, morbidly obsessive/overly attached with hobbies or objects of affection, far too detached from on-going conflicts and her duty as a chosen, quite vain and somewhat egocentric.
Strengths: Highly analytic and an excellent student, great at thinking in both conventional and unconventional patterns, very open-minded about people and their quirks, would've made a great engineer one day if it weren't for being chosen.

Elemental Weakness: -
Elemental Immunity: -

Background: It's not a stretch to say Iselia's opinions were very divided about their new chosen. Although of common birth, Zoey was identified as the chosen at an early age and abused her privileged position to the best of her abilities and grew up plain spoiled. Zoey's only duties for a long time would be to learn about the tales and rituals of the Church of Martel. With her keen mind, Zoey had to spare little to no effort on that. As she grew up however, that same mind developed an interest for science and archery, as well as a greater need for solitude to practice these hobbies in. None of that mixed or match well with her teachings nor upcoming pilgrimage. As the priests tried to prepare Zoey for her journey, she would rather spend her time away tinkering at some obscure invention. Zoey grew more and more detached from her task... After all, things had been just fine up to now, right?

“As long as they're not killing their selves, they're a hell lot better off.” Sigmund rolled his eyes. “If your idea of a plan is letting innocent children walk to their doom, we're not a team.” He stated bluntly, but remarkably calm, before walking straight forward (whether Charles would remain standing or not) towards another kid.

“No goal justifies every means. Matter of fact, you're not convincing me the village will look kindly upon us if we let more brats kick the bucket. You can try to stop me by finding us whatever we need to beat to a bloody pulp to end that trance, or by risking that arm of yours again.”

Mid-sentence, Sigmund's Iron Viper shot forward to yet another child, reeling it in. After ensuring his catch, Sigmund turned back at Charles, unwavering and staring straight into his eyes. “Or you can do the right thing and help me. Choice is yours, mister Night.” Sigmund mentioned shortly, before searching another kid off their curfew to pluck off the streets.
Looks like Sigmund and Charles won't be friends after all :(

“You're using them as lines and sinkers?” Sigmund grumbled, suddenly displeased with Charles. “Are you mad? These are kids. Kids for crying out loud.” The rook understood that using the children was the most convenient way to get to the bottom of the disappearances, but this did not go down well with the rook's code.

“Go home!” Sigmund roared at the boy that had been knocked out of his trance, and walked up to the kid with the scariest face he could manage. If nobody was going to speak their language to the kids, Sigmund would go with the tactics he knew best; intimidation and force.

An iron snake's head enveloped around Sigmund his fist, and quickly burst forward to one of the kids. In his head, Medusa giggled, as the weapon clutched inside the child's night robes and snatched a helpless body straight towards Sigmund. “Shut up, vile snake.” He bit at his spirit, as he put the kid under his arm and aimed his hookshot at the second child, a girl. This one he snatched by the arm, “Cursed darkness.” Sigmund cursed underneath his breath. Medusa cackled wickedly.

“Even kids? Seriously?” Sigmund growled at Medusa, who didn't even notice Sigmund's deprecation in her delight. With both kids under his arms Sigmund ran back to the closest house, and without warning, used his strength to kick in the door. The door flew straight into the living room, with Sigmund following up and without even a shred of consideration walked straight into the bedroom; put the kids down with the (no doubt shocked) inhabitants, then closed the bedroom door and stuck a chair underneath it.

“Charles, Eidren, you two better get to the bottom of this, we're not putting anymore of these brats at risk.”

A Clayman's Finale


“Wow, wow, wow, lady.” Lux almost gasped for air faced with the sudden hostility from Noelle. She had been... Forceful before, but this was a completely unexpected turn of events. Fortunately, one of the present holders had a solution; one Noelle was most fit for considering her flying abilities.

“The girl's right.” Lux added to Adeline's suggestion, then reassured Noelle, “Don't worry about the mission,” Sparks jumped between Lux' fingers, “It'll be over quick as lightning.”

“From nervous teacher to dashing hero... Who'd have thought.” Koko taunted in Lux' head, something the Bishop did his best to ignore. Instead he he turned to Adeline and Maria, two holders he hadn't introduced himself to yet. “Lux Turrez, mercenary and recruitment.” He spoke friendly, though hastily, after which he quickly stepped up to Salia and offered her a shoulder to lean on. “Good to see you're still alive. Though I imagine you've seen better days. Here, lean on me, it's time for a role reversal.”

The moment Salia'd accept or reject, Lux started walking. Not only because of the angry dragon lady, but if the royal guard was here again, whatever was going on must've been urgent...

Eowyn was grateful and ashamed that Remia was far better equipped for crowd control duties than she was. Though of course, she couldn't summon Sleipnir without giving the crowd the scare of their lives. The horse didn't understand the nuances of crowd control, however. “A warrior commands respect.” It stated simply, “A display of strength should supersede their meek wills. As well, I have collected more intelligence from the solemn Kuroi. She has identified the holders.”

“I see, thank you Sleipnir.” Eowyn spoke, before relaying the spirit's report of Mari's findings to the rest of the team. “Mari has found the two holders. A gray-haired woman, as well as one in a group of men. She said they have darker skin than the rest of the beach-goers, so please be careful when you see them.”

“Again exhibit a deficiency in initiative.” Sleipnir judged harshly, “Our opponent is in front of us. You lack a warrior's resolve.”

Eowyn, shuddered by her spirit's words. It was true she didn't know what to do, but Eowyn did not think unnecessary violence or displays of strength would be for the good of the mission. Instead, she accepted Quartz' proposal. At least, Eowyn wanted to, before it, along with Arlette, got snatched away by a random woman.

“Don't worry, she's with me!” Eowyn shouted as a small wall of people formed itself between Arlette and the rest of the holders, hoping her voice would be loud enough. Eowyn looked at Remia apologetically, asking if she could help retrieving Arlette. After all, just like Nathair and Eowyn, Arlette just wasn't fit for wrestling through this tumultuous crowd...
I hope so. Sigmund would probably turn out nicer for it.
A Clayman's Finale


“Girl's name?” Lux frowned, soon realising the armoured girl was addressing him. Before he could respond, Noelle pulled him near and for a moment Lux was confused whether she was going to hug or strangle him. Sparks formed around his fingers in a reflex, but a second later he felt his feet leaving the ground. Noelle had lifted off with the bishop in tow. “Our relationship is escalating quickly.” Lux smirked cheekily at the girl. A remark which may or may not have been the reason why Noelle promptly dropped him after she flew the both of them into their destination.

“Way to let a guy down.” Lux mentioned as he crawled up from the moving and shifting temple floor. The insides of the temple were eerie at best; fluorescent lines were drawn throughout the walls. To feel this sensation right after flying made Lux' stomach somewhat uneasy. “Well, time to get to work.” He said, as he decidedly pressed on, hoping Noelle and Nuka would follow.

It wasn't far into the temple when he began hearing voices; unfamiliar ones at that. Strange, Lux thought. His reports had been that only Salia and Adeline found their selves inside the ruins. He approached the sound through the blue-lit, twisted corridors and called into the distance; “Salia Kyrie! Adeline Tourret! Back up has arrived! Where are you?”

“Eowyn.” The knight heard her spirit, Sleipnir, demand her attention in her head. “You've been sent a report by our colleague, Kuroi. It makes the proclamation there be but two holders present proximate to the seashore that remain unknown to us. She also details a small turmoil in the distant water. Our surroundings are otherwise tranquil.”

Eowyn let out a small sigh, hoping Sleipnir hadn't made communication as difficult for Mari's spirit as he did for her. She then relayed Mari's information to the rest of the group, before telling Sleipnir to thank Mari's spirit for the information and request her future plans so that they could align them.

Eowyn was glad Quartz seemed to have a way to do his job without causing too much of a disturbance, but Eowyn knew Sleipnir couldn't quite do the same. The presence of a volcanic horse was hardly obscure and she herself couldn't lift the spirit's sword even if she applied both of her hands. Still, at the very least she could count on Remia and Quartz. Maybe even Mime... Although she could hear Sleipnir snort at the idea of trusting the doppelganger.

When the crowds gathered on the beach, there was a sense of restlessness boiling. Simon was already getting harassed, and Eowyn tried to sound optimistic when she said “Looks like we've got work to do!” to the team, as she lead them onto the beach. Taking initiative however, made Eowyn feel quite nervous, it wasn't a role she felt suited for, although Sleipnir was most pleased that his holder did for once.

“Excuse me!” Eowyn yelled, trying to pass through the crowds, but it was hard to wade through the sea of people. She looked back at Remia, Nathair and Mime, silently asking for help n the hopes they would have a better chance at getting through and helping Simon get on stage without his clothes being torn off in the process.

As time passed, Sigmund tried to figure out the riddle of the kidnappings. “We must've missed something obvious.” He told Charles when he met them during their rounds. He didn't know if Eidren had returned yet, but as the rook grew impatient he used Charles' telepathy to relay their flying holder a message;

“Have you found anything yet?” He asked Eidren, “On our end we just can tell you this was no ordinary kidnapping. Nobody here knows a thing and there's no sign of struggle or break-in's in the houses. Oh and they don't have pigeons ar-”

Sigmund's telepathic communication was cut short when he saw a kid leave his home. “Damned parents ought to buy locks.” He mumbled, before sticking out his arms and waving at the kid to yell “Get back in you stupid brat, it's dangerous out here!” Before quickly realising the kid likely wouldn't understand him and telepathically asking his team if anyone could repeat that in the native language.

Though what else disturbed Sigmund was an unnatural sound squirming it's way into the night. More doors opened and more children stepped outside. It didn't make sense, Sigmund could understand one kid could be this stupid, but this number. “What in hell's name is going on in here?” Sigmund asked Charles...

The before polite Mari has surprised Eowyn in her quick leave and harsh choice of words. First impressions weren't all there was, but it reminded Eowyn of Ryan who had gone off on his own... Although, it was a lot less likely that anything on or near the beach would petrify Mari's innards, than it'd been in Mösund's network of tunnels.

Fortunately Remia was still her old self, and Nathair, despite his awkward nature, seemed sensitive enough. At the very least he knew Arlette. His spirit on the other hand, had a rather... Curious behaviour, and relationship with his holder for that matter. Even Sleipnir, who was about as proud and arrogant as Eowyn had ever known a spirit, never assumed authority over Eowyn. Quartz was a strange one.

As everyone, well outside of Mari, agreed, they left for a place further away from the crowds. Quartz and Arlette seemed to get along and she seemed less nervous in the presence of the small snake. Eowyn was relieved. Still, there was their mission, and so Eowyn asked everyone “What do you think our strategy should be? Four of us are knights, but showing spirits to the crowd would unnerve them I think.”

Unfortunately Sigmund couldn't see or hear Sophia either, and so he just laughed. “Well, let's see if they taught you anything fancy there.” He replied to Charles, as he already prepared his distraction. He stepped away from the knight and out in the open, putting his hands near his mouth and activating his provoke skill; so that all eyes would be on him.

“Any of you guys got a carrier pigeon? I need to send a message!” Sigmund asked. This way Eidren's question could be useful after all...
