"Your brother is powerful girls... But not all of this is his destruction, some was at the end; some of it is much more recent past day or two, and the rest is the incompetence of those in control," he said to the bears as he went through several maps and found where they were, and he sighed as he looked around and then at Jazdia.

"My intuition is telling me this area is a trap, and we should keep moving. The bears should dismount and try to smell out any of the magic being used. That artillery back there was similar to what we are going to see if we fail, but it was different, more potent and filled with magical imbuement, much smaller than our artillery, but it seemed to linger like a cancer." he said, looking at his map, "this area can be seen by miles, and places we can't see with clarity. If someone was to bombard us, they easily could without us knowing where exactly they were."

"But... it's a good spot, get off the path a bit, and watch for those we need to, those who we aren't looking for we can follow them in. This is not my cup of tea with the spying, and planning a raid on someone's likely well-armed manor. That is more of Erwins thoughts. But my intuition tells me that here in the relative open is not going to be good in the long run."

The Five Senses - Second Arc (Accepting New Players!)

Peytr Ruhnoveltz

Name: Peytr Ruhnoveltz
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Yes
Age: 22
Home Nation: Touch

Appearance:

A relatively young man with short hair, and usually stubble. But he is relatively standard, with a rounded face, average build, 5'11 in height and maybe 180-190 lbs. He is generally standard in all ways, looks, and the like. His attire is likely very standard, and common. His wears for his role in life, is likely guard equipment from armor, and arms to idolatry.

Bio:
For most of his life, he has lived a simple life. A typical family of crafters, with the eventual guard mixed in. Living in the Nation of Touch, his family was relatively low on the totem pole, and he mainly lived just to assist his family financially, learning his fathers trade of being a blacksmith. He primarily made nails while his father did more complicated tasks. But he spent maybe eight years assisting his father and family in the trade, and doing chores while picking up a small education from his family. He learned mostly skills such as cleaning, and cooking outside of blacksmithing, and he did pick some more advanced things, but he would still be novice at much of it.

When he was older, there was a decently sized barfight happening when several guards had gotten hurt, and he found himself protecting several of them from fighters. Through that, one of those guards wished for the young man to join the guard, and as it was a pay raise, he did. For most of his young life, he has decided that was the pathway he wanted to take; he got some education outside of what he learned through his parents, and family. He turned out to do well in some of his studies as he learned to properly read and write to fulfil his job in the guard, he did decently well with other studies he dipped into, mostly math and finances. Some basic architecture, as he did find enjoyment in buildings.

But as a guard, he spent most of his life walking and talking to people and building relationships in his community. He learned and read books some to those around, and helped further his education, and got others interested in learning. He might not have been the smartest bookwise, but he did have a good heart, and mind. That might have been why he went missing when several shady individuals entered the town, and departed soon after. After this, nothing is known of his whereabouts; his body was found, and no one saw him after his interactions with these figures. He is figured by many to be dead.

Currently, he is being tortured, he was taken by a group unknown to him, and brought to an undisclosed location for experimentation. Those who wish to learn more about packmasters, and bring godlyhood to themselves have experimented, and found a way to bind an individual to the plane, but also force that pack to be split two ways.

Personality:
A young and happy man, he honestly is relatively nice and level-headed compared to most. While others in the guard were more prone to violence, he was more investigative and curious. He did this, and spurred others in the community to be better than themselves. He want to build people up, not break them down. He did get into fights, but usually, that is if talking didn't get anywhere. He will be brash, and harsh in certain events, mostly in others getting hurt, especially if they would be the underdog in the situation, those are the times he tends to lose his level-headedness and go to instinct. But again, this is only on infrequent occasions. He does enjoy learning, but, he is relatively innocent and does not know much of the world outside of his own community. He does drink often, but that is recreational with friends and for enjoyment. But he is usually soft-spoken, and he tries to sound educated for someone who just learned how to read.

Quirks:
Learned in basic trade skills, mostly blacksmithing, but some carpentry, and architecture.
Basic reading skills

Skills/Magic:

Natural resistance to Heat : Due to his family and most of his life living within a smithy, he was almost born to being used to living in near-extreme heats.

A touch of brawn : He has strength beyond his looks and phsyic, his family is unnaturally strong, and that is due to lineage, and their nature as those born of Touch. They use this lesser magic to craft more complex materials in blacksmithing or to haul goods and resources.

Blacksmith first tradesman second : He is a journeyman blacksmith, and does decent in other trades, mostly carpentry for finishing tools.

Broken pact : forced into a form of pact through an unknown but somewhat controlled means, anti-magic. He was created and not brought into the pact through normal means. The first part of the difference is that he does not give to the Being. Instead, his legacy continues, but he may also take others' legacies up to that point, or should they die touching him. But, this can also be returned, both parties will be in pain with the transfer of information of the pact. But, he is essentially a bank, full of memories of others lives, and he already has several stored in him. Similar to bank, where one can deposit, store, and withdrawl copies of their desired memories and legacies. Does wear on his mental strength and ability over time.

Magic disruption: As a result of the experiments performed upon him, his very being has become a bit of an abnormity. Through touch, he can nullify normal magic abilities. For stronger magics however, he can only disrupt/weaken them. The stronger the magic, the less impact his nullification ability provides. Disrupting magic, causes great pain for both him and the magic wielder.

Weaknesses:

For most of his life, he has been standard, and possibly less than that, his weakness is his heart, he would do anything for others. He is also relatively new to education, and reading. He spent most of his life learning trades rather than a formal education, and that is how he learned. He is tactile, and by treating himself with experiences, he learns better. But it is a much slower process as well.

Then the pack, while it was made, something altered its course, and no longer did it find into the realm of reality; while he was saved, it was by those who created the pact for him. They have bind over what he sees, and should anything try to draw information from the pact, it causes him pain. Should the weave be opened up from him, it causes immense pain that can be immobilizing due to how it interacts with his body and mind.

Equipment/Items:
Ragged clothing

Erwin

Erwin looked wired at that point, alert, almost too alert as he looked about like a rooster in coyote season. He looked around, and he saw something off in the distance but he did not believe it to be anything but people fleeing. He pressed his lips together, and looked at Varya as he did not seem to enjoy much.

"This is why I shot the ancient... for fears that something like this would happen should someone decide that we were a ripe target that invoked revenge for troubles we caused them." he said, "In a world of men and corruption, there is only law and order, and that has broken down because of the war posturing, those from inside who seek power, for from the mountains to the north seek to pillage these lands while the warriors are away."

He moved back with the two bears, and looked them both in the eye, "This is a small taste of war... this is what Erwin is afraid of, he will do anything to stop something like this, because it causes disorder for all."

"Weapons of man can do the same as a mage, and without any enchanting. But this is more than just those craters, that was direct artillery, this is just blatant destruction and barbarism."

He slowly made his way into the snuggled part of the wagon he slept in prior, but when the came to the place, he looked at Jaz, "Are you sure this is the place, it is rather open, and in a place that seems relatively hostile? My eyesight is a bit too bad to see the landmarks of the mountain range, and it seems the closer ones I have used more recently are burned down."

Erwin

He looked over to his side, "a few things, to my knowledge several months ago, the bears brother came through. But this looks recent, this looks like a test fire gone off course." he said pressing his lips together, "Artillery possibly."

He looked over at Varya and sighed a bit, "Preparation for war, it's been voted on. Everyone is preparing, that means less of the kings people here, and more local deputies to take over once again. This area has been full of turmoil for a short time, the kings men that were hee have likely been mobilized, and only a small group of soldiers is around because it's where they are stationed."

He rode his horse closer to the man, "things are changing, but... From what I heard, this is new... I know the bear's brother did a lot of damage here... but this is not from him."

He stared at the town around them, and he leaned over to where the bears were sitting, patting their head, "This, is the work of a single mage... imagine that expanded."

He looked around them, and smiled a bit, "we were here about a week ago Erwin before moving to our next stop south of here. Let us just hope another fight doesn't break out, this place doesn't need more death."

Erwin looked at those in front of them, and took out a small flat piece of bread, "Gruel is soup, we are traveling, just ask for bread like a normal person alright little one." he said with a smile, "but move on quickly."

With that, he moved his right hand across his body in wait as he looked at the surroundings, he looked at the soldier, "Do you know where the live? The brigands and traitors?"

"He is a soldier, he is fine." he said looking at the woman, "he has medication that can keep him up for a while, made right in the capital. It is used for productivity in factories, and he found another use for it. It makes him alert even in a drowsy state, he climbed into the carriage and pulled out a small pouch and bringing out a tiny brown ball the size of his pinky's fingernail.

Erwin rode up and took it before taking his place in line, and then he chewed it for a moment before swallowing it.

"Give him a minute and he should be fine... don't mind the mania if he starts talking. You might find him more agreeable, he is more open with it."

Erwin rode over and got the pill, he chewed the bitter paste but he swallowed it after a moment, it would be a while before it really got in the way of things. He smiled a bit, "I thank you for your concerns, but I'll be fine, I made a mistake I will not make again, and I will pay the punishment for it. Plus, we are on our own roads, there should not be much of a problem. When we get closer to our objective, I will swap out when we tend to the animals needs."

"But I do thank you both for your concern," he said quietly looking between the two trying to get him down, he looked drowsy, but he perked up and rolled his shoulders, he knew it didn't kick in yet, but it would eventually.

"Get on your horse boy... you are up front, learn to talk to people and find their thoughts out, learn not to be an idiot, and learn what everyone can do, these here are your unit now." he said as he was standing at the shotgun side of the carriages seat. He stared and looked at everyone as he pressed his lips together, "Miss Jazdia, feel free to hit him, but talk to him. You can learn things from him, and him from you. After all he helped make half the laws in the land that are new. But he can learn the old ways of non humans from you."

"Now..." he said as he made sure the horses were on tight and he climbed up, "who's driving?"

He looked back at the Bears, "today you get to see what a strong mage can do, what your brother did when we get to the village. It will be a lesson for you dears."

Erwin

Erwin just sighed as he continued to saddle his horse, and he made sure his packs were on it, he was drowsy, but it is something he has done plenty of times before, he was thankful he was youthful. He slid his rifle into it's place, and pouches onto their dry bags.

He did not like the words his grandfather said, but there were a few that he might enjoy. So far he believed everyone to be money grubbing mercenaries, and those who cared not for order. Which in some aspect is true, but he could not fault them for that. He took a deep breath and mounted Bread, as he looked around, his grandfather singled out a name, and he despised it."

Erwin caught the woman, and the box in her hands, he pressed his lips together and rested her head against his shoulder as he would move his rifle to her chest, and he pulled her up into his arms and carried her towards where he put up a bedroll and tent. He laid her down and kissed the top of her head gently.

"Sleep well..." he said as he slowly moved a few cloths over her before taking his musket, and getting his pouches for it. He saw his grandfather and the bears sleeping, and he would stay up relatively uneventful for the rest of the night.

Erwin

Erwin sighed a bit as he looked at her, and he reached his hand out towards her, "You are a good person, but you have plenty of place to judge others. You have watched me judge plenty, you have seen justice in it's honor. You have been with me and uncle for a year and seen several arrests. You have seen what has happened to traitors, human or not. They are the same under the law my love..."

He slowly smiled a bit, "But what is wrong?"
