Vivid Recollections Season 2: Into The False Light [COMPLETE]

I'm out of hospital! However I'm still low energy (will be for a while since I'm gonna be on medicine / still ill for a few months) and need to catch up, so it'll take me a while to post still.

I'm still in hospital so I'll basically be unable to post until I'm out :L I could do it on my phone but I'm v low energy so it would be super short and bad

Vivid Recollections Season 2: Into The False Light [COMPLETE]

I'm still here for sure! But I'm glad it's not gonna die at all, makes me feel less guilty for not posting frequently. But anyway I at least plan to stick around to the end cause I'm enjoying it and want to see it to the end.

I'm horrible ill rn so posting is kinda hard.

Good! Everything makes sense to me at least don't think there's anything I don't understand

I'll try and post during the week - I'm away all weekend so can't write

Natrelmon: Reckoning [Creature Capture]

Shea

Name: Shea Byrne
Age: 20
Gender: Agender

Appearance: Shea is at first sight a bit short, standing at around 5’3”, with an androgynous look making it difficult to determine their gender (though they identify with neither). They’re body is what could be described as average – no curves, neither slim nor overweight. However they have strong arms and legs from years of sailing even if it didn’t develop into overly obvious or attractive muscles. Their skin is fair, with a smattering of freckles across their nose and cheeks. However it does tan well in the sun rather than just burning. They have grey eyes and dark hair, kept short and messy. They are fairly commonly found with a grin on their face, giving them a surprisingly attractive (well, more cute) look for one so average.

Hometown: Armkfish

Personality: Charismatic and cheerful, Shea knows how best to talk to people to get what they want. While friendly and quick to make friends, they are just as quick to drop them. This is not because Shea is inherently a cruel person but rather that they have a rather one-track mind. They quick to forget things not important to what they are currently concentration on. They are still easy to get on with and good company. At the end of the day Shea is reasonable and pragmatic, if a bit fickle.

Relic Description Shea’s relic is a nautical rope bracelet, with brighter coloured string running through it each containing a Natrelmon.

Starting Natrelmon: Kaigara [15](F), Velare [10](M)
Starting Spell Schools: Mistshaping [III], Invocation[III]

History: Born and brought up in Armkfish, Shea’s mother worked at the port and their father was a merchant. Both had a love for the sea that was given to Shea and from a young age they were sailing. They learned everything from them, sharing a close bond. It was no surprise that they got their first Natrelmon while at sea with their parents. And they continued to learn how to train and work with Natrelmon from their parents.

Though unaffected by the war due to their location, it also meant that Shea barely travelled beyond Armkfish until it was over. Even then afterwards they only travelled down the west coast, mostly by sea. Their parents were far from overprotective – Shea has been practically independent since 18 and taught how to look after themselves from a young age. However it wasn’t until now that they had any wish to leave their hometown and quiet life, deciding to undertake their Rites.

Professions: Tamer, Merchant

Noteworthy Skills: Sailing, Navigation, Seamanship

Somewhere Else

---

"... Are you ready to see something beautiful?" The Child asked as they extended their heavenly hand outwards toward the group, expecting each of them to grab.

“For some answer, yeah, sure,” Caelea rolled her eyes as she gave her hand.

Min was more than willing to give his hand, in silent contemplation. If it led to more knowledge, then why wouldn’t he? The more he knew of this the better.

“As long as it doesn’t kill us,” Rien put their hand in. A bit hesitant, but doing it nonetheless since both Kimberley and Jordan had. They’d rather stick with the people they knew.

Tuyen raised their hand, their shadow copying and doing the same. It was better than not knowing what was going on. Anything to get out of this situation.

Then they were transported to what seemed like another world, filled with so many colours. It truly was beautiful. Tuyen looked around in awe, practically speechless. Even their shadow was silence for once without her having to concentrate on it. The tree itself was even more beautiful and unlike anything they’d ever seen. It was beautiful.

“Shit, I wish I had my sketch pad,” Rien’s mouth was slightly ajar as they stared. Not that they would be able to do it justice in a drawing. They could always try.

"Ages ago, my predecessors, in the act of ultimate compassion seeded a barren universe and given up parts of themselves so you all may think. May feel. May be able to decide the fates of your own lives. They created the Godforce, the accumulation of all sentient conscious, emotion, thoughts, memories, and personality across the multiverse."

“Kinda like god, huh,” Caelea murmured with a raised eyebrow. Even see was awestruck by the sight.

"When someone is born, they borrow a piece of the Godforce that gives them the ability of free will. They will go out and gain memories and experience emotions that are absorbed back into the Spectrum when they finally pass which allows the Godforce to go in size and power... to what you see here today."

The Child made some kind of beautiful white ball in their hand and held it out to them all. "The God-Force is everywhere and is life itself. As without the ability to feel, to think for yourself, to experience memories... you are considered dead...."

"... The Awakened owe their powers to the Godforce."

It was difficult to process. Being awakened was one thing, but this Godforce? It was even stranger. It was more than just powers. It fuelled everything. Tuyen couldn’t quite wrap her head around it. So if they used Godforce for their powers… what did the make them? Or was it just that they had more Godforce than normal people? She couldn’t quite understand.

“Do our powers come from memories and experiences then?” Tuyen asked, quietly and more to herself than anyone else as she reasoned it all through.

”The glutton it craves Godforce, doesn’t it?” One of the new people asked a question that seemed far too close to reality.

“…Is that why Scott ripped off the tattoo things of the people he killed?” Rien asked, remembering an all too horrible vision they’d had from a long time ago. It seemed like a different century when all they’d had to worry about was Scott. “Because of the Godforce, and the glutton wanting it?”

“My question is,” Caelea clenched her fist, looking away from the beautiful tree made of flowing fog. “If you’re predecessors had enough power to make us all think, why can’t you defeat the glutton. Why do we have to do it? Why the fuck are we the ones who landed with these powers and shitty situation?”

Also going to try get some kind of post up this week, I'm all caught up and feeling a bit inspired- just gotta get assignments out of the way first

Vivid Recollections Season 2: Into The False Light [COMPLETE]

@Ruler Inc I mean the GM sucks so you know that's always a downer

In all seriousness I think it's going great, I'm struggling to keep up but that's on me and kinda... happens anyway (whoo uni and bad mental health). But I also know I'll be able to jump right back in when I get time so it's not much of a worry tbh.

<Snipped quote by FernStone>

You better get rid of that writers block now

I am going to have the child reveal that the key to beating the Glutton is by having Rien get tentacle banged by it.

@Ruler Inc

Oh shit well thats exactly what I need to get rid of writers block
