No matter what kind of disaster happens to the world... they'll still be here.

Oliver Clive

_Age

---

15

_Gender

---

Male

_Appearance

---

Oliver is smaller than most, with messy brown hair wrangled in by an old beanie he sloppily throws on anytime a visit to the outside world is necessary. A pair of wiry light gray glasses is set in front of his lime green eyes, both contrasting with the tan brown color of his skin. He wears what many would consider "mom jeans" a couple of sizes too big for his thin body. Oliver has a rotating wardrobe of turtlenecks and sweaters that he layers with a polo shirt underneath. He does the bare minimum when it comes to maintaining his appearance and it shows.

_Personality

---

Oliver is a fidgety and nervous teenage boy with a great passion for insects. He tends to spend his days huddled up in his room tending to his various specimens. He is outspoken about his worries and has a bitter side to him that shows up frequently, often when others express disgust at insects or blow off his concerns. Oliver treats the world outside of his room as if it were an alien planet and is overly worried about safety.

He is adamant in his belief that insects hold the key to survival. To him they're a food source packed with nutrition, a source of medicines and poisons, and what humanity needs to embrace if they want to further spread out. Most people don't care too much about his rambling. And because of that, he believes that most people are wrong.

_Background

---

Oliver wasn´t always an only child. After a tragic incident that happened while he was nearly too young to remember, his older sister was fatally wounded by a dinosaur after venturing too far out into the wilderness. His parents' happy view of the town they'd spent their whole lives in changed overnight after the loss of their first child. Ever since then, they've been overly protective of him and are glad that he's chosen such a quiet path in life. They provide him with whatever supplies he wants for insect care, relieved at his passion taking place primarily indoors. Their house is small and unkempt, as Oliver likes to hoard things in his room and his parents are too busy with work to clean.

_{Miscellaneous}

---

-Since he spends most of his free time indoors, not a lot of people know him. When he does venture outside, it's usually to collect specimens or visit the library. Because of this the people that are familiar with Oliver tend to regard him as an oddball.

Eɴᴛᴇʀ — Into an Isekai World

---

Unknown Forest

---

Kaito clutched his journals as a sharp breath ejected from his mouth. So those animals... er, goblins that almost killed them, were common in this land. It dawned on him that his time here wouldn't just be a test of mental fortitude. Could a man of his build even defend them? Could he even defend himself?

He ruminated about what to ask next while the others spoke. The more Ipharia explained about the kingdoms and royalty, the more wherever they were in started to sound like a fairy tale. Even her belongings, which he would have mistaken for movie props under normal circumstances, had the spirit of being from some fantasy world. It made more sense to perceive it that way rather than the strange terms the teenager kept bringing up, anyways.

"Ipharia..." he said, the word not quite coming out right. It wasn't just out of the name's unique aspect, as there were definite pauses throughout his words. "The others were able to defend themselves earlier by using... magic. Or something to that nature."

His eyes began twitching, refusing to look at anyone directly.

"How would... how can I do the same?"

Spending multiple weeks under constant danger was definitely not something he liked the idea of.

The Five Senses

Lynx

Octavio

---

Octavio stared at the falling drops of rain in silence, awaiting any kind of response. At hearing Chres' words, a chill colder than the air around them ran down his spine. The urge to joke about the situation came and was snuffed out. He knew that something had gone terribly wrong.

---

In a short span of time that Lynx was unable to perceive, the endless loop of garbled sensations lessened, yet persisted. It was a blaring all around him that seemed to overpower his entire being, as if the wavering spots the noises rang from were threatening to drag him back to the state of nothingness and overload he was only just beginning to scrape away from.

Even in his state of being unable to form coherent thoughts he knew he had to hurry. He didn't quite grasp time yet, but it was something distant and alarming and definitely there. Some of the noises wanted him to leave and escape. He didn't want to trust any of them.

A shaky memory lit up in his mind. Being carried away by the current of a furious river, long long ago, the only help coming from the outstretched arms of a man in a nobleman's robes. Was he reminded of the past because it was repeating? Or was it because a part of him that had been laid bare knew the way out?

Wheezing, he dragged his trembling body up to the best of his ability and dashed to a dark corner in the movements of a wounded animal. At last, when the sharp noises got sharper and he understood their instructions better, he escaped.

---

"I don't believe we have many options right now," sighed Octavio, eyes scanning the tower. Their current distance from it allowed Octavio to detect faint traces of his familiar, although it was nowhere near enough to put him at ease. On the contrary, the lack of activity worried him further.

After what seemed like an eternity under the rain, Lynx's gray form could be seen dashing towards them. But something was different. Gone were the familiar's graceful movements, replaced instead by limping.

"Lynx!" His cry tore through the air. The illusion of himself dissolved as any sense of concentration Octavio possessed disappeared.

Basic Info

Ko-Ko-A for your Ko-Ko-RO!~ Sweeten your heart with Kokoa!❤

Eh?! The interview already started?!

Uwahh!!... Kokoa-chan is embarrassed… To think that she´s going to high school starting tomorrow… it makes her heart beat passionately~

Ah, you see❤, Kokoa-chan may be a popular idol, but deep down she´s also an ordinary girl, I promise!, Please take good care of her from now on, alright?♫ Ehe~

Stage name: KokoA

Name: Tanaka Tsubasa 田中 翼

Age: Fifteen years old

Birthday: February 11

Height: 156 cm

Blood Type: B

Hair Color: Brown

Eye Color: Brown, blue eye contacts

Seiyuu: Harada Hitomi
Sample 1
Sample 2

Description

Asking Kokoa-chan to describe herself is a little hard~ but... being an idol is all about expressing your true feelings, right? Kokoa-chan will do her best, so please support her! Magic Kokoa kiss! chuu~❤

Physique: Very slim with almost no muscle whatsoever. She puts a lot of effort into skincare and avoids the sun like the plague.

Outfit:

-School: Girl´s uniform with the skirt as short as it can be without being reprimanded for it. Tailored to fit snugly against her body for a more fashionable appearance.

-Casual: Kokoa's extensively coordinated outfits are topped off with a visually overwhelming assortment of accessories and frills.

-Shoes: Form over function heeled shoes.

Personality: ESFJ

Tanaka Tsubasa is an overly competitive and ambitious workaholic who is never satisfied with staying put. When dressed as Kokoa, Tsubasa acts in an overly saccharine and cute manner. Tsubasa believes that she lacks the natural charm her mother had during her days of being an idol and has resorted to viewing the idol world through a scientific lens to figure what to do and how to act. She spends hours researching current trends and puts her conclusions to use in competing in the music industry.

This approach to becoming famous doesn't mean that she dislikes her job, she just thinks that this is the best possible way to achieve her goals. She genuinely enjoys being cute.

The occasional quirk exclusive to her true self might unintentionally slip out from time to time much to her dismay. This is especially prone to happening when competition is involved.

Likes: Shopping, winning, attention, simple math, makeup, social media

Dislikes: Unpredictability, parental visits, physical exercise, getting wet, studying

Backstory: Born to one of Japan´s most loved idols, Tsubasa was instilled with an overly ambitious attitude since birth. With a forgettable appearance and a lack of socialization skills however, young Tsubasa´s fifteen minutes of fame evaporated quickly and left the entire family forgotten by the Japanese public outside of hardcore idol fans, as these events took place many years after her mother´s retirement.

Tsubasa's parents were always supportive of her and never presented working in the entertainment industry as a career option. This angered her as she perceived their mellow attitude as faithlessness and distrust. She set out to make a name for herself in the idol industry no matter what and eventually succeeded. Tsubasa's parents have allowed her to live in an apartment by herself, although they chose one that was close to their house and insist on constant check-ups.

Personal

Phone: An overdecorated AU KDDI Sony SOV34 Xperia XZ.

Occupation: Idol, her parents keep most of the money.

Elif

"Hey, got a minute?"

_Name

---

Elif Edelweiss

_Age

---

15

_Appearance

---

Five feet and six inches of slight lankiness. A body developed from delivering medical equipment from point A to point B in top speeds but not much else.

_Biography

---

Elif's father was a respected and talented medic who had drowned himself in work to forget the grief of losing his wife during childbirth. He loved his daughter, but never had the time or energy to tend to her. Elif grew up as an only child with an insatiable curiosity towards the world. She would relentlessly question her father over whatever procedure he was in the middle of and would start conversations with anyone after eventually getting sent outside.

They say it takes a village to raise a child, and that's exactly how Anna experienced her childhood. Piecemeal tidbits of information about the world outside a little infirmary were given to her by anyone who happened to be around. The conversations that stayed with her the most were the ones had with those with little time left to live. From a young age she had learned that life was short, unfair and very, very fragile. She wanted to soak up as much of everything before inevitably passing away like they did. Future events would force her to become aquainted with more of the world and would make her dream of those hazy, dreamlike days.

_Personality

---

Elif is an extrovert with a bold and chatty personality. She has a bratty side that can occasionally come out, usually when denied the answer to something. She is knowledgeable over tending to injuries and isn't disgusted by the sight of excessive blood and gore due to her upbringing. She hasn't put her skills to the test outside of being an assistant, and the idea of another person putting their entire life in her hands is too much for her to handle. She is an earnest open book who is oblivious to the feelings of people who aren't the same way.

The reasoning behind her overly friendly personality is mostly normal, save for her feelings of frustration stemming from a lack of longlasting personal relationships. She's gotten used to people coming and going from her life, but still yearns for someone to stay.

_Statistics

---

• Physical Strength: 8
• Speed: 14
• Teamwork: 14
• Leadership: 4
• Skill (Gear): 10

Intentionally cheesy fantasy rogue man

Male.

Sight.



Octavio was abandoned by his mother at an orphanage near a college for bards. It was during this time in his childhood when he began to take after them and see them as his idols. He dabbled in everything related to the world of entertainment before settling into the role of a lute player, out of being criticised repeatedly for his at the time cynical personality, one that developed from growing up in a competitive and emotionless environment.

As he grew older he held a grudge against the rich and the eager way in which they wasted resources on attempting to impress each other. Initially he began with petty thievery, but as the years went by he slowly began to fine tune his charisma in order to take a more direct course of action. He is now what one would call a "gold digger", attempting to approach and woo older socialites with the help of his above average appearance and a stolen and luxurious familiar.



Octavio, at first glance, is a man who revels in all things dramatic. From the things he says to the way that he says them everything is romanticized and exaggerated to the point where reality becomes interchangeable with fiction. He is a womanizer of sorts and will not turn down the opportunity to “charm” the opposite sex should it present itself. Underneath this extreme personality is a less dramatic and more grounded individual. He is still a talkative extrovert, albeit one with more restraint.

He is charismatic, swift, and typically tends to know less than he lets on. In combat his familiar takes on a support role rather than directly engaging targets, while Octavio himself makes up in speed what he lacks in physical strength.



He admires perfumes and colognes for the aesthetic qualities in their colors and containers. His sense of taste and smell are both poor and he envies those who are able to enjoy pleasant scents or foods to their fullest. He is also fond of paintings.

His lynx familiar is never used in combat. They argue frequently.



Homosexual.



Octavio´s past experiences in music are red herring for his true abilities in sight based magic. His tendency to attempt to charm and swindle those wealthier than him are supported through the illusion based nature of summoning magic. His familiar is a flashy silver lynx who is used in helping his owner blend in during his attempts to infiltrate high society rather than combat.

The lynx belonged to a duchess as a mistreated ornamental pet. His metal glass was stolen by Octavio and he now finds himself accompanying the rogue through various shenanigans. The lynx has been given countless pseudonyms and is simply called Lynx when not in front of targets. Lynx is brooding, stable, and quiet, a direct contrast to his owner´s personality. He puts up with Octavio´s lifestyle only because he slightly prefers it to his previous owner´s.

Octavio has a relatively strong mental fortitude and can resist magical manipulation attempts better than most.



Octavio has a hard time acting seriously and will normally offend and confuse level headed members of the working class. He has a toxic view on human relationships due to his upbringing and will emotionally shut out anyone who attempts to crack his shell.

Even with the support of lesser familiars in combat Octavio is far from being the best fighter. He is suited to fighting magicians or opponents in stealth situations but suffers when fighting anyone wearing armor.

A small and light leather bag, a short sword and a dagger, cologne, two earrings meant for standard combat summons, expensive wine that he refuses to admit the origins of.

My Hider

• Male

• 43

• #F27778 = "No problem, no problem!"

• Repair and maintenance expert.

• An upbeat and charismatic spanish man in his forties, characterized by his boisterous nature. While speaking fluent English was a bare minimum requirement for anyone who wished to join the Aurora, Hugo, against all odds, was selected. His heavy accent and less than fluid speech don’t seem to bother him or affect his booming voice in the slightest.
  
  Hugo comes from a large family, and as such loves children and has no concept of personal space. For someone with such a large build he surprisingly doesn’t eat much. Overly affectionate, great at improvising.
