"Denali. You will switch with me," the other bird said to her, puffing out her chest.

Denali let out a tiny chuckle. "Not on your life."



A ringing in his ear began to pull David back to consciousness. Everything was a bit of a blur... he was on the beach, and they were talking about being friends forever, and then... a portal? Or a black hole? Or tentacles..? He took a deep breath and groggily opened his eyes. He blinked once. Twice. This was not the beach he was just on. The sky should not be those colors. Plants don't glow. Before he could react, a small bird popped into his vision.

"Oh good," the bird cheeped with a sigh of relief, perched on his chest, "You really had me worried there for a second."

"Wh-- Where-- Where am I?" David stammered. Talking bird. This might as well happen.

"Shh, there's no time to explain right now. My name is Denali, and I need your help. For now, though, I need you to get up and fight. We're in danger." She fluttered off his chest, nudging his arm with her tiny head. "Now go!"

At Denali's command, David stumbled to his feet and got a lay of the land. Not too far away, he could see his friends from the beach fighting a space bear. Alright! Taking a moment to get his bearings, he noticed he was not dressed the way he came in. Although, the new fit was quite comfortable, and came with... wings? Yes, he most definitely had wings now. He put his hand instinctively to his side and found the hilt of a sword. He pulled it from the scabbard and studied it. It seemed to be glowing... was he glowing?

David turned back to Denali, a worried look on his face. "Ah, miss Denali," he said, biting his tongue, "What, exactly, do I do here?"

"You'll figure it out, David," she said in her soft and gentle tone, "I mean no offense to your companions, but, you do seem to be one with considerably more discipline than most. Just feel the power within you, and you'll know what to do."

"Right, just feel it," David mumbled to himself.

At that moment, Milo breezed past him towards the bear. "Fuck yeah, I'm like the motherfucking Avatar! With skates!" he cheered. David watched him closely.

"Just feel it, huh?" he said. He took a deep breath, and closed his eyes, focusing on the new wings on his back. They felt feathery and light, and he could feel the leftover wind from Milo with every feather. David crouched a little, before leaping skywards. As if by nature, his wings took over, lifting him high into the sky. He could see the bear below, currently tangling with Connor. He lifted his sword and stared down its blade, right down at the Ursa Major. "Just feel it," he breathed.

David readied his sword, and slashed it in the bear's direction. As he willed it, a blast of light came flying from the blade, slamming into the Ursa Major's shoulder. "Woohoo!" he cheered, throwing his hands into the air, "I'm like... I've got the Master Sword! I, guess." He didn't take too long to celebrate, shaking it off and flying closer toward his friends.

David ran along the beach as the sun began to kiss the horizon. Everything was to be savored in this moment: the warm sand beneath his feet, cool waves lapping at his ankles, the gentle breeze on his face, the crisp air in his lungs... it was almost like a movie. Of course, it was made even better with Milo at his side, the two boys racing sunset as they headed back to camp. Milo was an odd one, and at least a full foot shorter than he was, but he enjoyed his company. He brought an excitable energy the others didn't really have.

Everything had to be savored, because David wasn't sure how much time he had left. Every passing hour was one more hour closer to him shipping out to another state entirely for college, an hour closer to him maybe never seeing these friends, all together, ever again. He liked to hold out hope that maybe there would be another beach trip, one day, but nothing's ever certain.

He shook the thought from his mind. Now was not the time live in the future.

"Almost there," David breathed as they rounded the last corner, their little campsite coming into view. Conner and Noah were getting the tents set up, while Gray worked on the bonfire. Slowly, he paced himself from a run into a jog, then into a walk as he reached the others. "Thanks for the run," he said, giving Milo a quick pat on the back, "Always nice to have a running mate."

He grabbed his water bottle and sat down in the sand, enjoying the still ice-cold water inside. He didn't mind that the others were drinking, but it wasn't exactly his scene. Alcohol was never the right move after a run anyway. He took a deep breath, focusing in. "Y'all need help with anything?" he called out, "Or should I get working on setting up the marshmallows and hot dogs?"

David Baker

Human

Name: David Baker

Age: 18

Appearance: David is a quite good looking guy for his age. He stands tall at just over six feet tall with a little bit of muscle build and broad shoulders. His skin glows a warm dark brown, and is fairly clear of blemish. His long black hair is kept in thick dreadlocks, and he usually keeps it all up in a loose bun. His eyes are a very dark brown, and shine like amber in the sunlight. Despite his build, he has a softer face, with hints of sharpness in his nose and jaw.

David has never been wildly into fashion. His clothes fit well and keep him covered, and that's all that matters. Because of this, he tends to wear mostly t-shirts and joggers, with the occasional jacket if it gets colder.

Personality: David is a warm, gentle man. He is a helping hand, a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on. He is somewhat soft-spoken, preferring a quality over quantity approach to how he chooses his words. He is optimistic and hopeful, choosing to never give up and stay tenacious in his goals. David is very loyal to those he loves, but not blindingly so--he isn't afraid to call someone out if they're making poor choices.

David's hobbies center around sports and books. David loves to run, and has been on their school's cross-country team since he was a freshman. He's also into basketball, but only for fun. He loves to read, and has a soft spot for romance novels in particular. He enjoys singing, and has a lovely baritone voice to match. He hopes to carry these into college, but isn't sure if he'll be able to make it work.

David is always willing to stand up for other people, but struggles to do the same for himself. Always a giver, he has a hard time advocating for his own wants and needs, afraid he takes up 'too much' space. He's a bit forgetful, often getting lost or losing track of things. David worries that he's just as forgettable to other people, and feels that at the end of the day, he won't be remembered by the people he cares about.

David is deeply compassionate, and driven by love for everyone. He wants to see the world change for the better, and wants to do whatever he can to bring that about. He forgives easily, believing strongly that people can change. No matter how hard things get or how he might be treated, he does not let go of his beliefs on love and grace. They are his guiding lights and feels that as long as he's following them, he's on the right track.

History: David is the only child of his parents, Gabriel and Sarah Baker. As such, he was given the full attention of his parents at any given time, pouring their love into his upbringing. (This isn't to say that they were permissive, giving everything he wanted; but rather found the healthy balance between love and limits.) He grew up surrounded by friends and family, and spent a lot of time with his parents at their local community center. It was there he learned the value of serving others, and it pushed him to always be on the lookout for ways to help.

David did well in school. He loved to learn, and with the encouragement from his parents, no subject could deter him. Everything was interesting in its own right to David! He found himself drawn to the medical field, fascinated by its history and the advances made to keep more people safe and healthy. He knew he wanted to go to medical school, so did all he could to ace his classes and prepare to apply for schools across the country. He became very interested in surgery, and by the time his senior year had ended, David had been accepted to one of the top surgical schools in the country.

As excited as he was to move onto college, there was more to life than just education. His friends! He had become buddies with a bit of a rag-tag group of other boys, all from different backgrounds and wanting different futures. He sometimes felt like he didn't quite fit in, but was just happy to be included. So, when they invited him to a camping trip shortly after graduation, he accepted, excited to see them all one last time before heading out into his future.

Magic

Magical Form: Upon transformation, David is clothed in whites and golds. The first thing to notice about him are the six feathered wings from his back, stacked in sets of two. The next is the halo that sits behind his head, a disc of gold that seems to always be behind him no matter which direction you look at him from. (Think of the way they do it in old art.) His eyes turn a golden color, and his skin seems to faintly glow. He wears a loose white toga, worn on his left shoulder and exposing part of his right chest. It is belted around the waist by a gold band, with extra ornamentation to drape around his hips. He wears gold bracelets on his wrists, and a thin gold necklace that is worn under the toga. Seemingly tattooed in gold on his right shoulder is a sun emblem.

Not Very Good Reference

(use this as an idea, it's missing a lot of the details because recolor and I don't seem to get along.)

Weapon: David's weapon is a large sword, ornately decorated with gold accents. The hilt seems to be made from marble, carved with intricate knotted patterns. Opals and diamonds are set into the pommel, and the blade's steel is so polished that it appears to glow with a faint light.

Abilities: David gets full control over the element of light. He is able to fire damaging beams of light from his hands or his sword. He can create illusions seen by all, although they can be detected by touching them. He can create physical constructs from light, but they take far more concentration and energy to uphold. He can heal others by touching them, similar to healing hands in Dungeons and Dragons. He is able to control his 'glow,' able to turn it off all the way to becoming a blinding being of pure light.

Companion

Name: Denali

Appearance: A small, fluffy white chickadee.

Personality: Denali was once a powerful sorceress of light, but has since been cursed to be... this. It's fine. She hates it, but it's not the worst thing that could have ever happened to her. Denali is kind at heart, but a little ditzy and forgetful, and can sometimes be a little too passive. She's very shy, and frankly doesn't want to be on this adventure at all, but wants her body back, so here we are.

Any particular preference?

Surprise me!

I would switch to Light, and you could take Shadow just for Lucwell… But Conner was born to be a Magical Boy so…

@Crimson Flame

I briefly thought about using Shadow for Lucas, but I'm thinking I'll make a totally new character for this one. I think I'd prefer either Air or Light for that reason?

I'd love to join in, if there's room. I don't have any element in mind, though, I'm flexible!
