Calliope had yet to try her astral magic on him of course he'd be inclined to say yes but it would be welcomed to help her get a hold of her skills and a lady's touch wouldn't hurt. Returning the smile the young woman had given him in return, friendly and cordial but refrained from pushing any other limits. Especially around a newbie at that. Alban had to let out a small chuckle as Calliope had punched his bicep. He forgot how tall he was sometimes and what the young mage had done had reminded him of that and how small she was compared to him. "I hadn't seen your caster magic yet so I have to admit it would be interesting to see. I can't say I have a sword but I could create something fashionable for us to spar with sometime if you'd like me to oblige." Alban was no great swordsman but he could create something like a bladed weapon with his magic if the occasion called for it, it would be practice that he could teach her in more confined spaces but that was for another time as Nash had made his way over.
Barnaby's exspression had been price, Alban had to admit that fact. Seeing the acid mage turn fifty shades of red, having to laugh at Barnaby in that moment. It's what made the guild function so well, being able to laugh at the smaller things. His laugh turned to a smile as her surveyed the request board. Something that would a little easier but if Nash did decide to come maybe something a bit tougher?
Nathan was well being Nathan, but it was obvious when he came into the guild hall. All of the girls started giggling as soon as he came in. That was the difference between them though, he tended to be more subtle in his affections or at least tried to. Well and the fact they used Alban for two bit things some times. Which Pearl had to sometimes play the motherly role and ridicule the said females. But pretty much before he could say 'hello' Nathan was already gone and out the door. Alban shrugging his shoulders as he peered back at the request bored.
"Well I don't know what kind of job to look for but perhaps..." Picking two flyers from the bored, handing them both to Calliope letting her decide which. "One is to stop the thieves in the next town over, something easy but could provide you a chance to show your swordsmanship. Or find and eliminate whats taking the fishermen's catch down at Serpents Cove." Not the best choices but something a little easier for the new mage to try her hand at. Off course Alban and if Nash decided to go they'd provide most of the heavy lifting so to speak. Peering back at the request board to see if there were any others that might suit the need.
Alban had been back a week since his last request, he tended to wait a little while after S-class quests before taking another job. Sure he was a bit lazy but being one of the few to take the most difficult type of requests did take a toll on him sometimes. Regardless though he thought about taking another to alleviate some boredom, but the higher ranking requests seemed immensely time consuming. While he did need the cash he didn't wanna go alone. That fact in itself was the biggest flaw, but its the price he payed for being a bit over the top. The guild however was still just as lively, maybe something would happen that would spark an interest to take a lower paying job or to help out with one at least.
As luck would have it Raymond had come in letting a smile form seeing the dragons slayer come in, next to catch his eye had been Nash. Alban had found him curious but wasn't the type to pry into other peoples affairs. Lastly had been the new beauty Calliope, admitting to himself he did have a crush on the young woman but had pursued it. Actually finding himself rather bashful around her. Since everything was lighting up he come time from the top rafter where a few other of the S-class mages had settled in. It was time to socialize with his comrades after all.
As he set foot on the bottom level Alban held his drink up towards Nash, knowing full well what had happened but it was just a little fun as held up his alcohol infused drink though it wouldn't affect him as it would most of the guild cause it diluted too fast in his system. Alban had gotten used to calling the man by his last name, it was no offense just easier for him to say."Nash one should be coming back in an hour roughly."
Taking the last drink from his mug as he approached the bar to the left of Ray and his exceed Roger, "A refill if you don't mind Klondike." Looking over to the duo as they ate. "I'll take you on an S-class quest sometime if... you can convince Max and Pearl to let you come with me." A feat he knew that could prove to be difficult. "Good job though on your recent job. Keep it up and I'm sure you'll get in for S-class exams." Patting Ray on the back as he continued onward, taking a lax sip from his mug.
Crouching down near Barnaby. "Leave the new girl alone Barnaby or maybe we'll have to play catch again sometime." Alban's smile was almost devilish since this game of so called 'catch' didn't sit well with the acid mage as he left promptly. Standing back up looking down at Calliope and to the request board. Again... Well it couldn't hurt to help with an offer right? "If you need help choosing or help with a job I'd be more than happy to help you Calliope." Eyeing a request that seemed to scream for her particular set of skills but didn't point it out, not yet at least. "Or you can go with me on one, I'll split the reward even with you." She probably heard his 'flaw' around women but it didn't hurt to try and help the newcomer out.
I got a strange idea I want to shoot by. It popped into my head randomly and thought what the hell, its not really thought/mashed out so I apologize for its roughness. The idea revolves around a couple, deeply immersed in the gaming cosplay world. Even having their own youtube channels. Following from the personal life, to work and their online videos. Its extremly rough I know but I'd bee willing to has things out further if your interested.
Through out the city an unprecedented time wave is taking hold along with several serial killers stalking the streets. The local police force are stretched to the max and the killers are taking full advantage of the situation. Two however have caught the attention of the media and have nicknamed them according to their killings, even building a sizable fan base behind their psychopathic obsession. The two mass murders still continue but one has found the other. He was more interested in her than adding her to his list, even adding a token of demented friendship to his invasion to her apartment a red painted doll in front of her computer.
Drawn out of curiosity since she could tell who had been there along with strange connection to a man who shared her obsession with murder. In her email she also found an addressed letter to her from a man named Skinner. The name the paper had dubbed the man who skinned his victims. Replying back under the assumed alias the papers had given her, starting a twisted platonic relationship between murders. After several months of replying back and forth, Skinner sent a simple message. "Shall we meet appropriately?" Starring at the message for little over an hour before replying with a simple yes.
(A roleplay inspired somewhat by Dexter but I had a craving for something dark. We can do some dark romance or strictly platonic. The mature meaning in this is for violence and gore, intimacy is a maybe but something we can talk about if you want. Anything else you want to discuss or add possible ideas to this by all means contact me.)
Appearance Alban stands as a tall young man around the height of 6’4, but to back up his height is a body frame that is normal by most means. There isn’t a lot of muscle to it but it does still have enough meat to fill him out. Keeping his face cleanly shaven to maintain a clean appearance but hold his hair back in a black ponytail little past his shoulders that always has a seemingly wet appearance. While he is a professional he wears what is comfortable which is usually a pair of sandals, light blue silken long shorts embroidered with waves on each side and a silken shirt with crashing waves on it depicting a sailor kissing a mermaid.

Bio Alban has been apart of the guild since he washed up on the shores near the guild house nearly twelve years ago when Pearl found the young boy face up with the sun beating down upon him. Knowing from the storm the night before he’d been a sailor's son. But the guildmaster did sense that he had magical power about him, but what it was would baffle the woman later on. Taken into the guild allowing the young boy to recover before probing him for answers, it didn’t take long to see that the boy was a water mage and an accomplished one for his young age. But he said afterwards shocked both Max and Pearl.
Alban as he stuffed his face claimed the the god Njord had taught him how to use magic, which at the time was either very serious or laughable. Since the art of God slaying was exceedingly rare and the ability to find such magic even rarer. But this child claimed not only to have it but to be taught by one of the gods of the sea. When asked for a demonstration, young Alban nodded. Taken outside of town just incase this strange boy had these powers. In his demonstration Alban bellowed out thick black water cutting through a mountain, cutting the rock smoother than polished diamonds. After he had done so Alban passed out, both Max and Pearl unanimously admitted the boy into the guild afterwards.
As his time in the guild grew, so did Alban’s power. Growing to be an exceedingly powerful wizard. Taking on jobs that most thought were too dangerous proving his worth repeatedly but also grew tired of the onslaught of easy jobs. But that was about to change with the upcoming S-Class promotion trial. Chosen at the age of seventeen for the trials, one that did actual prove challenging and pushed past and threw the trials. Tapping into the rage from his heart, summoning and excessive amount power, that was far above the amount needed. What actually transpired is known between Alban, Blitz, Max and Pearl. Afterward he became an S-Class wizard and the rest is history. Becoming one of the premiere wizards of the guild and overtime was granted the alas ‘Son of Njord’.
Personality Alban works when he needs cash, helping out a friend or maybe to impress a girl or two. While he can be counted on in a pinch, he more than often is seen lounging about the guild hall or the town drinking. Which doesn’t exactly help since his body dilutes the liquid rather quickly. Normally very friendly and quick to help, even tutoring the younger generations of the guild. What he’s best known for is that he’s a sucker for a pretty pair of eyes and most of the female population of the guild know and exploit this fact from time to time. Something Pearl has to keep a watchful eye on.
Relationship (Would like one, pm to discuss it.)
Equipment None
Other Alban has major scarring on his right side which is a shark bite from his youth.

Elevating their house to the crown and destroying the line of dragons. After the dragons had been destroyed, the youngest of the Trelliss brothers was given the Vale. Surpassing the middle brother given to the youngest that supposedly done nothing. Under Raylan Trelliss the Vale has prospered as it had before, if not more so. The people and lords alike rallied behind the younger lord, creating one of the most fruitful areas of the seven kingdoms despite its terrain
House relations
Age 30
Physical description Raylan is a man of average man by conventional standards but being of the Vale tend to be stronger than what he looks. His physical appearance though is considered sauve and exceedingly handsome. Keeping his face cleanly shaven, that yields to face still very much youthful in appearance. His age often mistaken for a younger man barely in his twenties. Sporting shorter auburn hair, usually kept back with oil with piercing green eyes. Preferring to wear more elegant linens signaling his station in life.
Personality Raylan is the sort of man try as you might you can never hate him, well except his elder brother of course. Charming and clever if he really wanted to could talk someone out of all of their coins. Beloved by most low born and highborn alike for both his appearance, lavish parties and generosity. Values his daughter Ceria with the utmost pride and is the joy of his heart.Another mystery about him is why isn’t he married but that has drawn in a large crowd of women trying for his hand, but has stayed his hand. While he is one of the most beloved figures of Westeros, the faith looks down upon him as he is godless and has been since his wife had passed away. Rarely talking about his deceased wife as it is a sore subject.
Bio Raylan was the youngest of the Trelliss brothers. Born well after anyone thought his mother could’ve bore anymore children and because of that fact she took the utmost care of him during and after her pregnancy. Molly coddled by his mother but ignored by his father leaving largely because how his mother had doted on him so, raised largely by the his mother, the ladies of his parents court and maesters. Left without any major male figures to help him grow, the only exception being his brothers.
Growing to be quite the looker which earned him more attention in his youth flourishing among people males and females alike. But still fell behind the shadows of the brothers, where his Michael excelled with the intrigue and James with military skill. Raylan had excelled in politics and the social arena, that helped lessen the distance between the Trelliss house and the others. Softening the blow, helping mending relations with the other houses. After his eldest brother had usurped the Targaryan’s, he was given their ancestral house in the Vale, much to James’s dismay. For what reason is known between his late mother and brother, but he didn’t question it the offer and took it gladly.
Raylan had been married at one time shortly after the ascension of his house to the throne, he doesn’t mention his late wife. But is reminded of it every time he looks at his daughter, but that hasn’t dampened his spirit. Rumors of late is that he’s been searching for a new spouse, what kind of woman he’s looking for isn’t known but it hasn’t had stopped some ladies from trying to win him over.
Age 13
Physical Description Ceria takes a lot from her father's looks, that screams beauty and elegance but takes from her mother a slender form much like her mother, with a mature look to her. Already well developed for her age, complemented by the grace and beauty of her parents. Developing a dark auburn hair that resembles a plum color. Eyes that look as if there were emeralds, gleaming brightly. Often wearing varying shades of blue or green to increase her over all appeal.
Personality Ceria takes most of the best traits from her parents but the exception is her secretive nature. Much like her father she is immensely well liked and flowers in the crowd. Hard to hate such a young and aspiring figure that is loved threw out the Vale. The charm in her sweet voice puts most to ease. The sweet and innocent persona though isn’t all that it seems as it can be both her greatest weapon or weakness and is notorious for humiliating suitors the press for hand when she comes of age.
Bio Ceria’s birth was both joyous and cause for distraught. Welcoming a beautiful girl to the world but losing the unnamed mother the birthing sickness. Brought up in a very protective environment as Lord Raylan’s only child. Though as she blossomed her charming nature of her father, her mother's grace and the beauty of both swirled to create a prodigal child. A learned child that took to her lessons well but often sought the company of others. While she knew her position well she did play with the fact that she royalty, immersing herself with others. Now however as suitors lined up for her hand when she comes of age she plays with them. Toying with the young men since she’s been given free range to choose her betrothed unless ordered by her father.
Age 55
Physical description Ser Lorvik is a man grizzled by fighting the mountain clans, wars, and the Vale itself. Most of his hair graying but at one time it was black as night, but now balding his most distinguishing feature is the peppered beard falling from his cheeks. Cold blue eyes and sinewy frame of 6’3 make Lorvik Raylan’s most formidable man at his disposal even with his age.
Personality Lorvik being a part of the old guard is an extremely loyal man to the Trelliss family, more so to Raylan than to James or the late King Michael. While he is an exceedingly cold man, flares of color do flash lightly on occasion. Having a sixth sense about issues coming to matters of battle.
Bio Lorvik is actually the son of Raylan’s mother’s brother. Born the third son, having nothing to his name and would never inherit. Taking the black wasn’t in the question so he came to be captain of the guard under the Trelliss patriarch and as time passed he became the master at arms at Titan’s Heart. After the family had taken the thrown he passed the chance to be given a command in Kings Landing, hating the people of the city. Staying back in the Vale with Raylan as he was the only real father figure the young man had.
