I'm just waiting for someone to interact with me. I don't mind if we continue or not, honestly. I still got time to bond with a few characters regardless.

Sightseeing. That is all Aiden had come here for - he was still unsure of how to even ask for work from people he knew absolutely nothing about, save for where they lived. All of the world was a mystery to him, for he knew only the closed in life of his hamlet, before it was destroyed by raving bandits. Even as he walked up and down the markets, there was always something new to discover. He was beginning to kick himself in the head for not bringing some paper and a writing utensil to jot down all the fascinating new sights before him. "Damn it; why didn't I bring something to write with? I'm going to forget most of this stuff in about a weeks time." He was so caught up in his predicament that he almost completely failed to see the guards that had made their way to him. By the time that he had realized they were there, they were already pressing him to follow. Being the 'law-abiding' young boy that he was, or just very frightful of the consequences in refusal, he did as they bid.

It wasn't long until he was rounded up with a few others in some unknown location in the heart of the Sanctum. As if by instinct and 'not at all by some sort of anxiety', Aiden put his visor down to cover the lower part of his face. It was actually almost comical with the way it fit on his head; his body was far too small to fit the armor he had worn. While not at all dangling or swinging around, it did shake with every movement he made, making him sound like a walking mechanical-being that was just waiting to fall apart at any moment. Even so, his posture was brave. Almost, anyways - a experienced eye would catch that this wasn't so much bravery as it was false confidence. Perhaps a means of coping or intimidation?

When the woman came in, he watched her carefully, keeping his mouth shut as to listen to her words. She appeared strange to him, especially after the fact that she had gathered a group of strangers. For what reason could she want them? To want him? He was just some kid, so he thought. After welcoming them and asking them about their business in Guixiang, Aiden put his hand up and spoke up from underneath his visor, which muffled his voice just barely. "I-I'm a little too young to be pleasure seeking, but I have been exploring. I really like the architecture!" Perhaps he sounded a bit too enthusiastic...

Eli observed the room quietly as the sound of a clock ticked on inside. Every moment he spent in the room was used to inspect the fine furniture and material used inside. Deciding it would be best to wait for the others, since he assumed they had gone elsewhere, he plopped down onto a chair, and waited. Of course, by the time he sat down, he was already quite bored. There was nobody here to greet him, 'nor to talk to for that matter. He looked up over at the door, as if expecting someone to walk in at any moment. Finally, after another minute, he decided to stand up and leave. If nobody would come to him, perhaps he could come to them?

He walked silently through the halls, before making his way to a door outside. The garden was an amazing sight to see and almost seemed to remind him of another garden elsewhere. He stopped to look at every single flower and piece of vegetation around to admire it's beauty. Of course, this was cut short when a small ladybug crawled up on a leaf he was inspecting. He went pale, stood up straight, and moved on to find the others. He was quite tense from the ridiculous experience, but soon calmed himself down when he noticed a few individuals in the garden.

Once more, he took a deep breath, and approached them. He put a hand up in a wave and smiled. "Hello!" He called out to none of them in particular. Better to greet them all at once and get to know them individually another time.

@Gentlemanvaultboy Ayyyyyy.

@Letter Bee Well I'm just heading into the guest room, but I'm not really sure who is in there, so I'm waiting for someone to mention me so I know they're interacting with me.

Eli Vaelum

Name: Eli Vaelum

Appearance:

[+]

Bio: Born in the cities of Haven, Eli was brought up on the stories of ancient masters, who had trained children like himself since the dawn of their civilization. For much of his youth, the masters and keyblades captivated him, and filled him with dreams of discovering more of the Order as one of their own. He would eventually get his wish at the age of fifteen, when the rare choosing of students had occurred. The event, like many, was heavily celebrated by their people, and the young children were proudly put forth towards the masters.

Eli, as well as twenty nine other children, were chosen to become the new members of the Order, and celebrations were had for the lucky chosen. Of course, they soon found that it was not all joy. Their masters were strict, yet caring to the young folk. Day-in and day-out, they were trained heavily, from not only their skills of knowledge, but in combat. Pitted against one another and even in teams, they soon found out that becoming a master was far harder than they had anticipated. For Eli, his relationship with Master Lianya was heavily personal, as if she was like another mother to him. For two years Eli trained, learning new skills, and even training on his own with his peers.

It would seem that their training would be elevated soon, but it was not meant to be - an unknown foe, made of pure darkness, had attacked their world in countless, overwhelming numbers. While teacher and student alike defended the sanctuary and citizens alike from the hordes of Heartless, it would ultimately end in failure. The world tore itself apart violently as the hearts of keyblade wielders and civilians alike were lost, leaving only a small handful of survivors to fend for themselves in the sanctuary. Eli, with only five other keyblade members left, as well as a small handful of civilians, were the only survivors. Master Lianya, in her grief, made Eli promise something to her, until the world shattered completely. The device that had kept stored the memories from long ago exploded as the survivors were flung into the darkness, destroying their memory of their home, and fragmenting many others.

Eli awoke to a new location, one foreign to him, with no recollection of his world. His only memories kept in check were his personal ones, his Order, the other survivors, and his Master. The promise was lost...and so too was his world.

Age: Seventeen

Personality: It can be said that Eli, like most youth around his age, is an extremely energetic young boy. While not goofy, he's more than willing to joke around with those around him, if the time calls for it. However, due to his position in the Order, he will quickly correct himself into a proper character if he gets out of hand. For the students in the Order, concentration is key to success, and Eli is no different. Perhaps the most defining feature of Eli is his inquisitive mindset, always willing to learn more about other worlds and people. If someone or something strikes his interest, he is not afraid to explore further, unless chastised by one of superior authority to him. On another note, he is incredibly uncomfortable around bugs, which causes him to go slightly pale.

Skills: The skills taught to Eli were gained through harsh, but guided training from his teacher, Master Lianya. From keyblade expertise to magic, he was thoroughly taught in order to prepare him for his future trials, and thus keep the Order alive.

Mending Hands - Like most young members of the Order, they are taught that healing abilities were important to not only their comrades survival, but their own. Mending Hands, like Cure, is used to heal the wounds of of an individual and restore their vitality. Unlike it however, it is not instantaneous, and requires the user to physically touch the recipient.

Heart of the Order - Through unknown reasons, members of the Order, when taught, are able to sustain themselves for a prolonged period of time in combat, essentially making themselves immune to pain, almost like a frenzied state (without any of the actual frenzy.) This does not, however, make them immune to damage, and will succumb to their injuries after enough damage is taken. Why the user eventually falls is unknown, but it can be assumed that the ability was made with a means of prolonging a user's time to fight, while also ensuring that the user doesn't harm themselves to the point of no return.

Forward Barrier - Defense was a heavily emphasized form to many of the newer embers of the Order. While it was said that they would be able to project spherical barriers around themselves at a later point, they were pushed to learn at least the ability to defend themselves from powerful attacks to the front.

Supernova - Being the only offensive skill in Eli's arsenal, it comes at a dire cost. The move itself, well extremely damaging, requires a small charging time. The ability is advanced, completely depleting him of any magical power he might have. Depending on how much he charges into it, it will either cause a massive surge of flames or explode violently with extreme, searing heat. This move will completely render him unable to fight for a short period of time.

Keyblade - Forgotten Promise

World Sheet

Name: Haven

Summary of History: Haven was an ancient world established by a few survivors dedicated to the 'proper' training of keyblade wielders in an attempt to to repent for their sins. While uniting the planet wasn't necessarily easily, it proved to be effective with the keyblades in hand. With the world united, young individuals were chosen by the unanimous Master of the Order, and sent on their way to learn the secrets of the keyblade. For the most part, life on Haven was relatively peaceful, even for those taken into the Order. The secrets of hearts, the use of the keys, and of other worlds was shared in an effort to forward the betterment of all people. Unfortunately, the inevitable tension between keyblade users had sparked once more.

Young keyblade users, corrupted by the darkness, struck against their masters in an attempt to take control of the world, and in doing so, work towards finding the X-Blade once again. The battles were ruthless, destroying everything in it's path, including the great library, which had contained the greatest of knowledge. The conflict ultimately ended with victory towards the masters, who had far more experience than their students. Even so, it had taken it's toll, and reduced the number of keyblade wielders to an all-time low. In a last ditch effort to control the chaos the world had been plunged into, the masters created a device to wipe the memory of the multiverse, the keyblades, and of the other countless amounts of knowledge from everyone's minds but their own.

In doing so, the world was once again ready to rebuild. The masters, more cautious of who they chose, picked one student at a time, making their relationship with their pupils more personal, to ensure that the same event who never happen again. Thus, centuries passed, and the secrets of the multiverse with the masters of old. The Order had remained, but not it's origins. Life went on as normal, with the keyblade wielders kept strictly in small numbers. All was well...until the rise of Heartless erupted.

Despite the strength of the keyblades against this foe, the order was ultimately overrun, and the world began to split and tear apart from the overwhelming darkness. With it, a piece of ancient times was lost forever, and so too were it's people. In an unexpected result of the world's destruction, the device, which no longer had it's use, violently burst, wiping the memories of Haven from the small number of survivors.

Important Nations (Great Powers, etc.): Reformed Keyblade Order

Overall Technology Level: Low/Ancient

Map: The land of Haven had a similar terrain and water levels to Earth, but it's formation and placement was vastly different. After the Heartless destroyed it, the land was broken up into several fragments, and is now nothing but a bunch of rock floating in darkness, with small remnants of it's buildings remaining.

Kingdom Hearts: Lights of the Multiverse (KH and Alternate History)

Eli squished his face against the window of the Gummi Ship as he stared at the architecture before him. ”This is amazing! I’ve never seen anything like this before!” The pilot was quick to chastise the young man for getting out of his seat, but such strange buildings were rare to his eyes. For the most part, all of this was incredibly rare to him. He remembered waking up in a strange world, one that he did not recall, withiut any knowledge of where he came from. It was from there that a moogle had delievered a letter of invitation to him.

Even so, he imagined that whoever had sent him this invitation would think him even stranger. So there he was, the ship landing, ready to recieve a welcome from his host...or so he thought. Instead, he was approached by a few guards. He was rather confused over the whole ordeal, but did not question it. Perhaps he would be led by these men in armor to his host inside the magnificent building before him.

As he looked around the interior of the castle, he wondered how someone could have built such architecture without some kind of divine direction. Honestly, it was amusing to him. After passing by many paintings, doors, and corridors, he was led to a single door. There, the guards broke off from him, and he was left alone. He stood there for a few short seconds, preparing himself, and walked into the guest chambers.

”Hello? Is the host here?” His eyes darted about the room curiously, trying to take in as much of the scenery as possible. He thought of a room almost like this. It felt familiar and welcoming. Somehow, despite the nervous greetings, he felt comforted. It was as if he was close to home - wherever that was, anyways.
