Final Fantasy VIII: Tempus Veneficarum [7/10 Slots]

Relieved, Xerox heaved a heavy breath. A few others could be heard among the silence. Is it over? was the first thought. Xerox propped his glasses, confirming the state of the implants, no longer functional. The silence was broken by Duncan. 'Ex... traction team, so uh... you Xerox. Take him back. Load up the wounded and... the dead too. Kein's a healer, he'll keep them going.' His voice grew slowly stronger as he spoke, as if giving orders were slowly restoring his confused mind. 'The rest of you, search the area; anything of value, nick it. And Jake, do your thing, the office is yours.

Xerox replied with a simple 'Yes sir'. Turning over to the fallen Eika 'You okay? You don't need to push yourself you know. Eika spoke, "Ah...Sorry I couldn't get here sooner. And uhm. Nobody save the doctor and maybe the man at the exit knows I left. What exactly was going on and...Well...What happened to everyone?...Was I too late to stop it all?..."

Looking around, Xerox sighed. "Well, if you are talking about those from the class that graduated, the others seem to have gone on other missions or something, I haven't been able to see any of them around. So far it's you, me, Kein and Syrus. But Syrus took a pretty big hit, so he might be out of it for a while. If you are talking about everyone in this team built by Duncan, a number of them are back at the base camp. A small team was selected for this capture, but ... we lost a few good people, but, nonetheless, you weren't too late. You really saved us there while we were in a bind. I was able to find the weak spot, and although I am not the leader, issued an order which you listened to. I'm thankful you got here when you did. You did the best you could, you should rest. You really helped out everyone. There's probably less dead thanks to you." He gave her quite a speech, he was unsure what it was she wanted to hear, and tried his best to comfort her. The best person for that would of been Duncan, but he seemed to be kind of avoiding Eika.

Going through his stock, he had some Cures he could use to help her, at least a little. "Cure", Xerox called out, calling forth his paramagic stock of Cure to use. A green glow surrounded Eika, letting her feel the soothing paramagic. "Think you can stand? You should get Kein to look at you to help you. Maybe Duncan can take you, I need to get the target and the injured." Xerox asked, lending Eika a hand to help her stand.

Regardless of if she stood or not, or if she took his hand or not, after a moment he left her with the words, "You did your best, and you did a great job. Get some well deserved rest." Walking away, Xerox approached Wiggs's body. Assuming the proper procedure to lifting heavy objects without straining ones back, he attempted to lift Wiggs.

After a few moments, it was evident, Wiggs was too heavy with all those implants to be moved by even a group of people, let alone just Xerox himself. Getting a long pole, Xerox used some leverage to get Wiggs to lift up slightly from the ground. Afterwards, he brought up a trolley using his ESS and managed to get Wiggs on it. Luckily, it was a trolley suitable for mechas, so it was able to support Wiggs weight. Checking one last time, Xerox was able to confirm the implants weren't being repaired. In all honesty, he wanted to extract the implants and check them out, however, there was a chance of killing Wiggs in the process. That would be a waste, considering all the effort they put into capturing him.

Once he got Wiggs on the trolley, he went and got the wounded SeeD, such as Syrus and Freya, onto a trolley next to Wiggs. Turning to the person with the scythe who had helped them during the SeeD examination, Jericho, Xerox requested some help. "Hey, could you help gather the rest for me? I will start heading down with who I got now. Hoping that he would get that help, Xerox dragged the trolleys to the extraction vehicle. Although on a trolley, Wiggs was still quite difficult to transport.

Kein and the others had their eyes wide-opened at the size of the man, and the sheer weight. The team struggled to get him into the vehicle. "Woah, what is he, a giant? ... Oh shit. Syrus, Freya. I better take care of them! Kein spoke out. Although he was being frantic, he was a good healer, Xerox knew that much at least. "I'll go get the other wounded and ... deceased. We will be moving out probably after we grab anything useful and Jake does whatever he needs to do. Xerox went back to where the others were.

Sorry I took so long
Last night, when I got back, it was late and I had a group project to do, so yeah

Maki

Appearance:

Human appearance

She's about 160cm (about 5' 3")

Harpy appearance

Name: Fukuro Maki

Nickname: Lady of the night, Wind symphony, Miss Lazy

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Powers:

Flight

Maki in her harpy form has the ability to fly. She can glide and move a high speeds. Being a harpy, it feels more natural and less tiring to fly than to walk. She is very agile and can fly to speeds of up to 190 km/hr.

Transformation

Having a human form, she needs to be able to transform from harpy to human. An ethereal glow surrounds her body, and her feathers start to come out or she sheds her feathers in a cloud-like manner. The glow is of a light green color.

Aero

Harpies have a natural affiliation with the air and can use magic to some degree to manipulate it. Usually they use this magic to assist in their flight and to enable higher maneuverability. With this magic, Maki can achieve almost double her normal max speed. Harpies generally cannot use powerful magic, however, Maki is one of few prodigies among harpies who can use powerful magic. She is powerful enough to create cyclones and storms. She is still restricted, as other harpies are, in the fact they cannot use magic in their human form.

Weakness: Although learning to swim in her human form, it is impossible for her to swim in her harpy form. As a harpy, her feathers collect water and weigh her down, slowing her and making flight difficult.
She is also very terrible with the daytime/morning.

Skills: She is very skilled at playing wind instruments, such as a flute. Additionally, Maki has excellent night vision.

Hobbies: Maki loves to play with magic, although recently has been finding it hard to find time or space to do so. A lover of sleep, she also likes listening to all kinds of music and playing music.

Personality:
General
Happy and friendly, Maki seems quite lazy as she doesn't like to walk. Her persona changes depending on the time of day.

Day persona
During the day, Maki is very tired. She is always dozing off, but her tone is very happy as she speaks. Her movement is slow, although she still has good reflexes, and seems a bit clumsy. When asked to move things, she will put no effort and be lazy about it. Talking to her, she will try to keep up the conversation, and she is very happy to talk to people.

Night persona
Awake and alert, Maki gives of a cool beauty feel. She is very kind and talks in a soothing manner. Smiling to all, she is always friendly, and her movement is improved. Although she is still quite lazy about walking, Maki will complain less about it and occasionally go on strolls.

Background:
Before even hatching from the egg, Maki was known to be a prodigy of magic. There were times where her egg was floating, one of the clear demonstrations of her magic being used, before she was even aware of conscious thought. Eventually coming out of her egg, she was well-nurtured. Her parents were very loving and looked after her carefully.
Learning to play with magic, at night she was very mischievous. Blowing clothes away or blowing dust around. Making other objects fly or cutting things with the wind. She love playing with magic. Her parents were worried about her safety and the potential harm she could do, and found a teacher for her. One of the other few prodigies among harpies, Suzume Risa. Eventually she had to also attend school.
Her school was separated into two classes, the night and the day class, due to the types of birds the harpies were of. Maki was of the owl family, making her nocturnal. She had a lot of friends, who were jealous of her magic, but loved her. Showing off her magic, she once made a mess in the school, getting her scolded. Even then, she loves to play around with magic.
Her life, however, felt like there was something missing. Something wasn’t there. Suddenly she found what it was. Wondering off, she found out that there was more than just harpies in the world, there were things known as humans, and werewolves and others. Maki wanted to learn more about this world, which lead to her asking more and more things about the world below where they lived.
The school was reluctant about it at first, but eventually did teach more about the Lower World as they referred to it. It was something that they said was dangerous and must be handled with caution. If one wanted to go down there, there was only one place that was allowed. That place is Orean Cause.
Asking to be transferred to both her parents and the school, they gave her a special test. One which they thought she would not be able to achieve, at least not at her current ability since she was not taught of any of these things. Unfortunately for them, Maki had learned about the Lower World and how to transform from Suzume Risa. Thus, they reluctantly got her transferred to the school as an exchange student from a very faraway place.
She was sad to leave her friends behind, but they said that she should see the world, and tell them all about it. They were excited for her and wanted her to make as many friends as possible and one day let them all meet together. With that, Maki was transferred to the Lower World, to the school of Orean Cause as a student.

Optional info:
Maki had actually been taken to the Lower World by her magic teacher a couple of times, to see how her transformation magic fairs and how long she can hold it for. Originally, her ears could not form into human ears, and she had been given headphones and mp3 player by Risa to cover them. She did not like music at first, but eventually started to love it as she listened to what was on her headphones.

Orean Cause (Closed and redone in a new thread!)

Maki

Having only been transferred for a few days, Maki had yet to make many friends at her new school, Orean Cause. She did know a few people who were attending the party being held tonight, but not to any great degree. She decided she would have to use this chance to get to know people and let others to get to know her. Looking over herself in the mirror she made sure the dress was a perfect fit, and that there were no issues with any ... feathers.

Dress

Having put on the dress and grabbed her clarinet and left for the party. Leaving the dorms, she wore her smile, and walked elegantly. Considering it was 6:30 pm, it was getting dark, which meant she was more awake. Walking along, there were a few people in the Wind Orchestra Club who greeted her along the way, whom she greeted back. Eventually she reached the party, it wasn't quite what she expected, but it was still a nice event. Although it was a short walk, she felt her legs were quite tired. I just don't think I can get used to these things she thought.

She saw one of her acquaintances, whom she greeted. "Are you ready?" they asked. "Of course." she replied. Maki went up on the stage, and took a deep breath. Beside her was her acquaintance, sitting by a piano. Looking at each other and nodding, they suddenly played some music together.

The music played.
