Serpent's Benediction

Name: Valmyra Audron

Age: 23

Gender: Female

Race: Lamia

Appearance:

My Hider

"I would much appreciate it if you were to stop staring at me..."

Personality: Valmyra is a cautious and taciturn individual. Some may even call her opportunistic, a sentiment while not completely incorrect still fosters feelings of resentment toward her peers. While lamias living within the borders of Velt aren't too uncommon of a sight, she and her kin would still be the target of at least a bit of xenophobia. The civil unrest caused by tensions with their neighboring nation didn't help things either. It is perhaps due to this that the young serpent isn't quick to take to others and would rather be a quiet observer to those around her. However, those that manage to get close to her are able to see her better aspects: loyal, kind, and always willing to lend an ear. Some may even regard her as being a bit clingy, although she is usually conscientious enough to respect boundaries.

Brief Backstory: "Why...Why couldn't I protect them..."

Valmyra was born and raised in the forests that lie across Velt's eastern borders. She and her family lived alongside other lamia clans in a small secluded community. Born as the oldest into a family of several siblings, she quickly found herself being thrust into a protective caretaker role to safeguard her kin. While times were often hectic for the serpent, they were also filled with peace and tenderness. While her family mainly kept to the forested area, they often ventured into human villages and towns, whether it'd be for business or leisure. In addition, while not traveling north often due to the colder climate, the often traded goods with the dwarves as well.

While times were simple at first, eventually the skirmishes that sparked between Velt and Ithillin spilled into their village. Members of the lamia community in the area got caught in the crossfire between the oppoaing patrols, and during the exchange her father was killed while defending his family. Valmyra's mother was also gravely injured in the attack, and was since then left bedridden. This traumatic experience left Valmyra as the head of the family, and had to scrape whatever she could in order to take care of her household. She decided to take up spearmanship and join the Velt patrol corps, aiding to prevent such a event from tearing apart her family and community ever again.

Eventually, the Steel Princess Lady Velvetica caught wind of the lamia's efforts, and offered her a spot in her private military unit. The rest is history.

Equipment: Valmyra's main weapon of offense is a impressive spear named Asclepius, forged by the master dwarf craftsmen to the north. In addition to having an incredibly sharp edge, is lightweight and easy to carry - making its swings all the swifter. Of course, Valmyra has her fangs and powerful tail to rely on in battle as well, by virtue as a member of her race.

Asclepius

"Just you watch, this lance will skewer through any threat!"

Skills: Living in a forested area for most of her life, Valmyra is well versed in tasks such as hunting and herb gathering. As she has been tasked with taking care of her siblings and being the head of the household, she is also decent at tasks such as cooking and cleaning. Her snake biology also grants her a keen sense of smell, in addition to being an excellent climber

Genshin Impact - Eikons [Current Chapter: Geo]

The Azure Performer

Appearance:

A Dazzling Songstress

“The Wellspring of Truth lies in wait, and my voice wills it to come forth.”

Name: Tiziana Maggiore

Age: 21

Gender: Female

Race: Witch

Appearance: Tiziana is a young woman with striking features, her natural beauty often betwitches many that come across her. Standing at 5’5’’, she is a fair skinned woman with long brown hair and violet eyes. While traveling, she wears an elaborate white and blue dress complete with a slit. The slits reveal thigh-high stockings and end with a lace trim, and she wears opera gauntlets on both arms that are completed in a similar fashion. Some parts of the dress are edged with gold lining, and she wears asymmetrical gold rings on both arms. Her wardrobe is completed with gold lined platform shoes.

Personality: Tiziana’s personality can be best described as something akin to the sea itself. She can be cool and gentle as small ripples, or as wild and raging as large waves crashing onto the shore. She is a woman who follows her own tempo, and enjoys taking her time doing things. As a secret witch, she holds deep knowledge of the sorcerous arts, and naturally approaches problems with a methodical mind. As a songstress, she also can have a whimsical pattern of speaking, which paints her as an eccentric from the eyes of others.

Backstory: Tiziana Maggiore started her life within The High Court of Lascuta, born into a small family of wealthy aristocrats. On the surface it would appear that the young Tiziana had enjoyed a prosperous upbringing and life of high society. However, in reality, the Maggiore family was a clan of witches. They were magic wielders who were tasked with observing the balance between the natural and supernatural planes. Specializing in seid magic, much of Tiziana’s life was dedicated to studying magical sciences and the principles of supernatural entities. Due to her dedication to her studies and wanting to perfect her art, it was at some point during this time that she suddenly received a hydro vision, further adding to her abilities.

As she grew older, she longed for more from her life. So, to expand her interests, and to create a convenient cover for her other life, Tiziana decided to become a songstress. While she did have natural talent as a singer, Tiziana certainly wasn’t above using magic to alter the sound of her voice to make it sound even more entrancing than normal. She had garnered quite the following of fans, and her voice was of some renown in Lascuta. What was at first just a small side hobby became a beloved passion. With her manipulation of water, she also incorporated graceful dances along with her water control to create awe-spectacles during her performances. Eventually, when she came of age and was recognized as a fully fledged witch, her mother sent her off on a journey. Members of their clan become traveling witches in order to observe the natural balances of the world around them and further her studies. This was a plus in her eyes, as she could now spread the sound of her voice in other regions as well and further her fame.

Independents:

Sacred Voice: By utilizing her magic-imbued voice, Tiziana is able to strengthen her allies and lift curses. She can also charm animals and weak minded foes to give her an advantage in battle.

Siren's Voice: When interacting with men or certain women, her voice can seem a lot sweeter than normal, and she will have a better time of persuading such people.

Professional Performer: When she sings and performs, she can draw a crowd with ease. All eyes will be on her, which can be useful should anyone need a diversion.

Combat

Element: Hydro

Main Weapon Type: Dancer’s Fan

Secondary Weapon: Her voice

Weapon

Name: Luna Nixie -

Description: A ornament dancer fan that Tiziana uses as her main catalyst for her elemental abilities. It has the appearance matching the plumage of a peacock, and glows with an enchanted azure hue when in use.

Weapon Enhancement
Ocean Blessed: An enhancement that makes Tiziana’s fan to more easily synergize with the Hydro element, strengthening her elemental attacks.

Fighting Style: Azure Grace
"Ah…I’m more of a performer than a fighter…”

Torrential Devastation - Tiziana is a delicate lily, due to this she prefers to keep enemies at a distance with large torrents of water, guiding them with Luna Nixie.

Flow like Water - Tiziana takes great pride in her dance moves, which she uses to dodge incoming attackers with precision and grace. Her elegant moves and water illusions confuse enemies, making her harder to hit.

Affinity:
Strength: 1
Skill: 2
Endurance: 1
Elemental Mastery: 3
Elemental Stamina: 2

Elemental Style: Tizana controls waves of water that she uses to attack her foes. She can manifest them as waves, blades, or torrent shots.

Techniques:

Acqua il Passo - Tiziana phases to the side using a dance move and leaves a water image in her original spot. When attacked, the image will explode, dealing small AOE Hydro damage to any foes nearby. The energy fallout goes into her fan, which strengthens her elemental burst.

Finale di Onde Oceaniche - Tiziana gathers a large amount of elemental energy into her fan, then crashes a giant wave into her enemies, dealing AOE Hydro damage to those engulfed in it. Energy tacked on from her previous skill stored in her fan can further strengthen this attack.

Hey. I had a decent amount on my plate and wasn't sure if I could take this RP on as well. Been lurking around the interest sheet, and I decided to throw my hat in again, if that's cool. Got a CS here, let me know if anything needs to be changed.

A Small Respite

"No grazie, Senora." Replied Lucrecia to Kat "Though quite flattered, I'm against workplace romances. Too problematic for my tastes." Viatrix the responded to Lucrecia's earlier comment, feeling that the maid gave her a little too much credit. She carefully took Akantha into her arms as she prepared to go off with her and Lyssa to the infirmary. The child glancing at her and Polina, Lucrecia returned the glance with a reassuring smile before the three went off.

Leoniya then walked up to the three recruits, congratulating them on a job well done. "Ah, t'was nothing Madonna." She replied with a humble bow. "It was a matter of, how you say, "Teamwork makes the dream work." I believe that's the way the saying goes?" Bernadette was the next to make her presence known, confirming that she was able to reestablish communications. However, before she could finish she was snatched up by the Krysan maid, who declared she was going to cook up her apparent "signature" Stroganoff.

"Truthfully, I am no stranger to cooking dishes using wine and ale. You'd be surprised how popular it is among certain affluent socialites." Replied Lucrecia to Leoniya and Bernadette "If I'm not overstepping my bounds, I'd be more than happy to- Gruhh!" She cut herself off making a sudden pained grunt, holding her back. It seemed the back wound she received during the mission hadn't fully healed at this point. Wincing a bit, she decided that it may be in her best interests to reunite with Akantha a bit early and pay the medical officer a visit.

"Perdonami, Madonna, but I think I'll see Viatrix for a moment." She wasn't as familiar with demons as some of her other companions, but she imagined untreated wounds inflicted by them spell particular trouble down the line. She went in the direction the other three went and arrived at the entrance to the infirmary, seeing Viatrix beginning to attend to the other two.

"Ciao Madonna!" Lucrecia said. "I hope you don't mind the sudden intrusion, but hopefully you're equipped to tend to a third person. I have a nagging back pain, from a demon wound no less..."

She looked over at Akantha, waving a greeting at her. "Hello dearie, looks like we both could use a bit of a check up." She then looked over at Viatrix, her expression becoming more serious. "You haven't found any issues with her, have you?"

Seeing Hinami pass into a peaceful slumber, the gravekeeper lowered her axe, with Takeshi now speaking with her on current events. Thankfully, it seemed he won Yurine off with a bit of convincing. She stated that she knew of a remedy that calms the body allowing the mind to focus, perhaps then it would be easier to figure out what drove this negative feelings inside of Hinami. She would first need enough ingredients to make the remedy, however, as she didn't have the necessary flower - red spider lilies. Seems there were some nearby, fortunately, with Takeshi agreeing to scout out for them and Luna volunteering to follow.

"Please, be careful Takeshi-san. You as well Luna-chan. And, thank you..." Said Atsuha to the duo leaving to find the necessary herbs. That leaves her with her sleeping sister, her lover, and the gravekeeper herself. At Yurine's questions, Atsuha felt that the first one was easy enough to answer. "We are yokai from various backgrounds who were contacted by a supporter of the Oja family and Shizuyama as a whole, sent her to aid Takeshi-san the the natives against the Varjan invaders and save as many lives as possible. There's not really much more to it than that."

However, at the second question, she fell silent for a moment, looking over her sister. She then seemingly braced herself, as if it was quite the emotional burden for her to speak on the next subject. "Truthfully, I that's something I also wish to know. I'm not sure if it was something I did or something else that happened at some point. It may help if I gave a bit of context." She paused for a moment, as if she was gathering the courage to divulge the information she had been holding back.

"You see, my sister and I are not natural yokai. We, we actually were born humans just like you and Takeshi-san. However, one day, my sister died from an illness. She...is very dear to me and I simply could not accept that she had been taken from me. So, I did the unthinkable - I underwent a ritual that involved resurrection magic. After I perform the ceremony, my sister and I took the forms you see before you now as punishment for breaking taboo. Perhaps her fury is some form of karma for defying the laws of nature."
