Dulga Tarata


"Ah, Kasuke-san I-" But before Dulga could correct herself Mina had left. Before she had left Mina started talking about her mother the Seductress. Dulga had no idea who taht was, but from the sounds of it she was the one that Mina was trying to overcome. Dulga just sat there and watched her new friend leave while feeling rotten about herself. "Good job Dulga..." Sighing, the six-armed giant stood up to head to class. She wanted to ask Mina if she wanted to try to become better than her mother, or become her mother. Even if mina wanted to be able to fight by herself and overcome her mother's shadow, she could still do that while also working alongside other heroes and further do more than her mother ever could. Because otherwise Mina may actually die trying to achieve her dreams. Dulga didn't want that to happen.

Dulga wasn't sure where to go from here. She didn't want to head back to class; it was too loud. She didn't want to chase after Mina, she needed some time to cool off. Dulga didn't know this school very well though. But she knew one thing: her favorite places was high above everything else. So Dulga headed to the rooftop. She just kept taking all the stairs until she finally reached the top of the building. There weren't very high fences skirting the side; just some handrails. "Perfect." Dulga went to the edge and leaned against the rails, looking down at the world from above. It was a good feeling, being able to see everything so clearly. Even if she couldn't see inside buildings or underneath the trees, she could see the entire city as far as the eye could see. She could even seen the dorms where Mina was heading to. Dulga looked with a forlorn stare, worried that she had just ruined a friendship with Mina. Taking her phone out Dulga started looking for a song to play so she could dance her problems away. But before she did she made sure to close the door. Hopefully no one will find her up here.

Once Dulga's song started, Dulga bobbed her head to the beat as she tried to find her rhythm. Once more she let the music take her away and just danced. Danced like she hasn't danced before.

Dulga Tarata


Dulga listened to Mina retell her side of what happened at the battle. Apparently she started at Point B first, and was the only one who faced off against Donny. However Mina didn't give Dulga too much details about her fight with him, which made Dulga curious. Just what sort of secrets did Donny have that even Mina couldn't talk about it? Dulga didn't really know what Donny's quirk was, but if the secret was that big perhaps it would be best if Dulga didn't know. She certainly knew the importance of secrets. Still she worried that someone with Donny's power, without anyone keeping him in check, was going to continue doing stupid things for stupid reasons. Dulga understood desperation and she also understood taking extreme measures, but if Donny's first option was to destroy an entire building before he has even tried to fight anyone and minimize the damage done to the surroundings, someone needed to set him straight. Dulga would gladly teach him that lesson.

Next Mina explained her fight at Point A. Sure enough Mina explained what she had already told Dulga before; she was playing it safe, used her powers carefully, and took out Roy when victory was most certain. Like killing a target with one bullet, Dulga understood Mina's thought process and liked how she thought. Mina couldn't act like a macho fool like the boys and fight for the sake of fighting, expanding all their energy just for show. Someone needed to actually win these fights. Just as Mina finished her questions one of those macho fools approached. Jett interrupted them to say his opinions on Mina's critique as well as eluding to Dulga about what he saw back at the other room. She simply narrowed his eyes at him and soured her mood greatly. Dulga was ready to jack him in the throat just for even speaking to her but she held her anger in check as he left. Sighing Dulga shook her head. "All these boys are fools."

Getting over it Dulga focused on Mina again. She didn't really have much to say about her fights that she didn't already say before. She liked how Mina fought, it was smart and played with her strengths. But she could tell that Mina may still have issues with Yoshida's criticism, and while Dulga didn't see a problem with what Mina did, she did want to say something in defense of Mr. Yoshida's words. "It's not about your attitude. It's your approach. One thing I noticed from what you and Yoshida-Sensei said, is that you fight alone. Even when you had teammates you fought the enemy by yourself. There are a few things you could have done differently. Instead of chasing Donny underground you could have waited for Lysander to back you up. After you fought Donny at Point B you could have checked on your allies and see if they were okay. Perhaps bring them back to Point A to help you fight. Instead both times you relied only on yourself." Dulga said stoically. Even when Dulga went hunting as a teenager she never went without her mother, or when she did she never strayed too far from home. Even wild beasts Dulga hunted every day can have devious cunning when their lives are on the line.

"Everyone fought alone. There was no teamwork, not even ganging up on each other. Heroes are suppose to be the icon of good and justice but they aren't suppose to be fools either. Heroes will always fight enemies stronger than themselves. One day you will fight someone you can't defeat. When that time comes even your best will not be enough. You need to be able to work with others to defeat enemies stronger than you." Dulga stopped talking to let Mina think about it. Perhaps it wasn't the most heroic thing to say but Dulga was a realist. Even though she had super strength and was good with guns, she knew all sorts of villains that could easily overpower her or render her firearms useless. Memories of that villain who attacked her home, who even her father and mother could not defeat and only managed to drive off, resonated in Dulga's mind. She understood Mina's desire to get stronger so that she could defeat someone. But she also knew that she needed to have reliable friends at her back if she actually wants to win.

"Make no mistake, Kasuke-san. Yoshida-sensei criticized your attitude because you fight alone. And one day that will kill you. But you have the heart of a hero and that's what matters. As long as you have that you can fix the little things overtime."

"Tomorrow. The bell is going to ring soon and I have some homework to do tonight." Dulga took out the thick student handbook and waved it around. She probably wasn't going to read all of it, just skim the important rules such as quirk usage and emergency information. Though she supposed she also ought to look up anything about fighting among students. Dulga was pretty sure with all these teenagers with attitudes and super powers, they're bound to have some rules and regulations about how to deal with it. And while the fight between Dulga and Mina wasn't hostile in the slightest, Dulga didn't want to get into trouble just because neither of them told a teacher they'd be sparring.

When Dulga noticed another student approaching she hid her arms back underneath her cloak, holding it firmly. While it was hard to hide Dulga's quirk, she just felt more comfortable covering up rather than showing her arms off. It didn't help that her uniform was also designed to be backless and gave her a bit of a breeze. She guessed that customizing the shirts with extra sleeves on her back would've been too much work. Her father could easily do it in minutes with some fabric and a needle. When the boy got closer Dulga recognized him as the one who fought Mina at Point A, Roy. He had some sort of light-based ability that allowed him to create objects out of light. Dulga didn't really remember what was said about him as she had focused more on Mina, but from the words they exchanged they both thought the criticism aimed at them was questionable. Dulga didn't say anything about it and just nodded her head in recognition towards Roy.

"So... I know what the teachers showed me. But I want to know what you did and what you were thinking. Please tell me everything you did at that battle, from start to finish." Dulga motioned Mina towards a ledge by a window for them to sit at. No sense in standing around and talking. Dulga would be listening to Mina as she walked towards the window.

"Of course Brannor. I'll stop by again later with food and water." Kyra said to the wounded man. Gruff as he may be, he has earned Kyra's respect, so she'd stop letting his instance on naming her by her title bother her so much. Though she'd certainly not tolerate others doing the same. Kyra left the room alongside Torus, who immediately questioned the monk. Kyra was rather surprised to see the old man bad mouth the stranger; while Kyra knew the monks did not participate in battle, their healing services were immensely appreciated. Kyra and the other healer had their hands full enough just treating those wounded getting here, without the help of the monks many soldiers would have also been left for dead.

"I apologize for my friend's words, good sir. After everything that's happened we're all very... Frustrated. That being said if what you say is true, than my friend here may have a point: trying to find your master while he is undercover may undo whatever task he set himself out to do. That being said..." Kyra thought about it and decided that she would make her decision now. No more hesitation. "It would be imperative that we know more about our enemy. We already know that they command an adult dragon, a mighty warrior, and even a nest of hatchlings. I have no doubts that they have even more among their numbers. As much as I wish that a righteous fury would be all that's needed to fight these evil-doers, a calm and informed mind is needed to defeat these enemies." Kyra only wished she knew more then what that prisoner told them. They didn't know the exact location of the hatchery, though Kyra was certain that they could find wherever they had set up their main camp. Perhaps that would have clues. Not to mention that they traveled as an army, and Kyra could easily track their movements with their numbers. Even if they scattered all she needed was one lead out of a thousand.

"What else can you tell us about your Master, Leosin? What does he look like, and where was the last place you knew he was at? And has he told you anything before he departed?"

Dulga Tarata


Dulga glanced back at Mina followed her out of the class and towards the water fountain. Apparently Mina wanted to talk to Dulga right now. That was fine, at least Mina wasn't stalking her like Acion was. Leaning into the water fountain Dulga took off her mask and had a few sips of water. She listened to Mina explain what she did and it confirmed a few of Dulga's thoughts about Mina too. First to proved to Dulga that Mina was a smart fighter, wisely trying to gauge the strength of her enemy first instead of rushing in needlessly. It also showed that Mina was indeed a trained fighter, though hearing her start her training since she was three did seem odd to Dulga. Dulga didn't start handling guns until she was ten years old, and that was only because Dulga was interested in her mother's guns. She couldn't imagine that Mina chose to start practicing martial arts at such a young age. And lastly, the way Mina spoke about it made Dulga wonder if Mina is trying to prove something. She couldn't put her finger on it, but Dulga had a feeling that Mina wanted to be stronger than someone.

"A little." Dulga shifted her cloak off her back to reveal her extra arms. Unlike her normal two arms, these arms were not covered by sleeves and had exposed muscles. They were red and veiny as if their skin had simply been burned off. Even Dulga's hands looked damaged, with the webbing between her fingers going up to her first knuckles on some fingers or looking ragged, as well as completely lacking finger nails on all four of her extra hands. "These arm grant me great strength. I've learned how to use them in my daily life. I've also been trained as a hunter. I can pull apart deers, boars, and sometimes bears with just my hands. But I've never been trained in martial arts. I know how to throw and take a punch, and that's about it. I'm much better at guns." Dulga was secretly happy that she was having a "Conversation" with Mina. It felt so easy.

"I'd like to fight you Kasuke-san."

Soon class was coming to an end. The teachers gave out their assignments and all the other students went about mingling with each other. Dulga looked down at the "Handbook" they were meant to read and sighed. She wasn't a very fast reader and hated the idea that she needed to learn this entire book by tomorrow. But it wasn't as if she had anything important to do tonight, so she'd just have to get comfortable and read as much as she could. As Dulga put her things away she was about to leave when she looked up and noticed the blonde girl, Mina, sitting not too far form her. Mina seem annoyed about something and Dulga wondered why. She thought back to the presentation and tried to remember what Mina might have done which could bother her. It wasn't until Dulga watched the teachers leave that she realized that maybe it was more about what the teachers said. They were pretty critical about how everyone fought. Dulga understood the need for criticism; compliments and kind words can't fix mistakes after all. But in Dulga's eyes, she wasn't underestimating Roy: While some might've thought Mina was toying around with him, Dulga could easily recognize that Mina was playing it safe, even if it meant not doing as much damage as she could against him. It was the only smart thing to do when you can't win a straight up fight.

"Kasuke-san..." Dulga said quietly as she walked up behind Mina. Dulga wasn't really sure what to say or how to start this conversation. Normally all she'd do is give her name and maybe a few comments about whatever the subject was. Dulga has almost never started a conversation herself. Not to mention that annoying guy, Jett, was sitting next to Mina. Dulga didn't want to stay here any longer than she had to, less she do something she'll regret in a moment of frustration. Putting her fingers to her mask Dulga though of what to say and then said it. "You fought well. I'd like to hear how you did it." Simple and to the point. No need for needless words or to butter her up. Dulga told Mina what she thought, and then told her what she wanted. Smiling underneath her mask Dulga considered this a good job before she left to go get some more water.

Dulga Tarata


"Seriously? You're following me and talking like that?" Dulga mostly ignored the winged boy as she walked back to class. Now that she thought of it, did he follow her to the bathroom? Now Dulga was throughly creeped out. Last time someone tried to follow her around, she broke their kneecaps. Granted she did that in a panic, but she did so very easily. He wanted to know her name and apparently they were classmates. "Of course. Because all the weirdos are in my class." Sighing Dulga stopped and faced the boy, most of her face still hidden underneath her hood and mask. "Tarata. Now stop following me." Turning back around Dulga walked to class.

She managed to get inside just before the three teachers did. She took her seat and made no attempts to draw further attention to herself as they reviewed what happened. Apparently Dulga missed out on a team deathmatch with the students of A1. This sadden Dulga: despite her own reluctance at social interactions she was always willing to fight a good fight. Ever since what happened to her mother, Dulga promised herself to never run from a fight. In any case Dulga watched the clips of the fight which allowed her to learn everyone's name, powers, and how they fought. What caught Dulga's attention the most was what happened at Point C; not just the sheer destruction but what followed after. It seemed like everyone was just lost after Mamoru and Sen took each other out. Even the fights afterwards seemed more like a friendly spar than a real fight which bothered Dulga. She knew it was just training so trying to kill or seriously hurt each other wasn't what they were suppose to do... But they had to take it seriously. If some madman was causing destruction in his truck and a hero died from it, they couldn't stand around in shock. They needed to act.

"Well, I guess it's easier for me to think that since I wasn't there. I could say a lot of things, but I wasn't there to really know how it was like."

Another thing that caught Dulga's interest was the destruction of Point B. Not merely the fight but the entire place going down. That was some real destructive potential there, even though it was a very deadly act as the teachers said. Even Dulga wasn't sure how she could pull off something like that; she may have super strength but it's not like she was strong enough to destroy sky scrapers. Though what also caught her interest was someone who was there: Ezra. Right after Lysander had saved him and Roy, Ezra wasted no time knocking out Lysander, his opponent. It was a dirty trick but Dulga had to agree that she would have done the same. Perhaps it wasn't "heroic" but a hero had to get the job done. Sometimes it meant resorting to dirty tricks. At least someone remembered what they were there for.

"I wonder how that building collapsed anyways. Just what did Donny do?"

Finally Dulga learned the name of the girl who gave her the new cellphone. Mina didn't really seem like a strong hero to Dulga, physically looking like a dainty little girl, and even her quirk seemed to be little more than a light show. However Mina made up for her lack of strength with sheer skill which was something Dulga respected. Dulga was a little bit of the opposite; while she knows how to fight, she doesn't have any refined martial arts training, just six arms and a lot of strength. Though Dulga was much better at guns than hand-to-hand. Dulga was interested in fighting Mina now just to see how she'd fare. If Dulga wanted to get stronger, she needed to be able to fight all sorts of enemies, even "weaker" ones.

"There's a lot more to Mina than meet's the eye. Maybe I should try to talk to her later and see what other surprises she has."

Anitta looked at the dwarves and counted their numbers. Their garb told her that they were scouts, but their numbers said they were a war party. Perhaps they intend to attack a large fortification later? Their leader was certainly dressed for the part. Anitta did not know many dwarves but has heard much about them, from their skills in battle and war, to their honor and valor, as well as their immortal grudges and ability to excel in court intrigue. Anitta should not underestimate these men, though she was still willing to question them. They wanted her to evict a human who lived near the river here. These dwarves surely had the numbers to do so, but why would they need her if they couldn't do it themselves? And why all the secrecy? Does it have to do with the dwarve's war against the Order? So many questions, so many answers.

"What do you know about this human? And who else but us are here?" Anitta figured that "these people" that the dwarves was referring too weren't the people at the city. They were far too deep into the forest for any screams to reach them or any patrols. Anitta was going to ask more pointed questions like "Are you going to use this place to fight against the Order" or "Why are you all even here", but Anitta doubts that the dwarves would have the patience for such personal questions. Things related to her job would likely be more willingly answered.

Dulga Tarata


Dulga had stayed in the bathroom for a few minutes and used this opportunity to put her cellphone's memory card into the new phone she received. It wasn't long before Dulga's new phone was finished downloading all the information from Dulga's phone, mostly her contact information. "That reminds me... I should ask for that girl's name. Even if she's in my class, it'll only be polite to know her name." Dulga had some problems trying to be "Sociable", but she still remembered a few things her mother taught her about manners. The fact that Dulga just walked out without even saying goodbye was one of those things that her mother told her not to do. Sighing the six-armed giantess left the bathroom with her eyes looking down and her hands in her pocket. She didn't expect anyone to be over here and thus was surprised when she ran into someone near the bathroom.

"Sorry." Looking up Dulga nearly flinched at the sight. It was a very... Pretty looking boy. But what caught Dulga's eyes the most was his wings. Six wings folded on his back like some sort of angel. Reflectively Dulga's own arms grabbed the edges of her cloak and tighten around her body. She felt a jealous just looking at him. "I bet everyone tells him how cool his wings look. I doubt anyone looks at you and think you're freaky or troublesome. You probably think you're hot shit too." Dulga thought to herself. It was a good thing she wore a mask and a hood, because the distaste on her face was easy to see. Hiding her face from the winged student Dulga walked around him and headed back to class. While those two trouble-making students were probably still in there, Dulga would just deny whatever they say about her.

"Ugh. Not the best way to start the first day of class."

@Conscripts

Dulga Tarata


"Dulga Tarata." Dulga said in a flat tone. While she may seem unexcited, Dulga was glad that this girl had the same line of thought as she had. It made things simple, not having to explain yourself. Shortly after Mamoru started to yammer at the blonde who still hasn't introduced herself, and Dulga quickly lost interest in their conversation. Yes, she missed the first class, she was sure it was super fun, and she feels very bad about it. Closing her eyes Dulga wanted to take a few minutes to get some rest but before she could even take a deep breath those two idiots from before came through the window. "So they came after me huh?" Dulga didn't waste a second to stand up and leave the class. If anyone asked why she was leaving, she'd just tell them she was going to the bathroom.

She really didn't want to have to deal with anyone who might try to expose her little hobby.

Dulga did end up going to the bathroom and took a drink of water at the fountain. ”Of course those nosy bozo’s will be in my class. I need to make sure they keep their mouth shut.” Dulga thought of ways to make sure they kept her dancing a secret. Threats was her first go-to option, but considering that they’re at a school for heroes, she doubts they would be so easily cowed. Blackmail perhaps? Find some dirt on them? No, too dishonorable. Perhaps just a show of power, make them forget all about it? ”No no no… Just forget it. They'll forget it on their own too.” Taking her mask off Dulga looks into the reflection of the water. She traced the scar on the side of her face, picking at the scabs. Dulga splashed some water on her face and decided to take a breather out here for now.
