Current Status: Tired and Concerned

With the force of the attack, the shield she had placed in front of them had shattered, fragments of light flying past her as it was used as intended to provide them cover. Sighing in relief as she moved her eyes to their teammates as she watched, observing the situation- well at that was what she intended for a moment before she felt herself tugged into action by Matteo.

Following in suit as she focused herself on running, making the best of Matteo's initiative to capitalize those few seconds provided to them by their teammates. Keeping a steady pace with her breathing, there was no opportunity to recite any of her prayers as she feared that doing so would pull her behind. It seemed like there would be no stop for the action, remembering the previous times that she had adventured out with parties before. This time was a bit different, as perhaps with the greenhorns this might of been something too much for them but it was a good learning experience, right?

But right now, the time for idle thoughts was not for here as her mind realigned itself with the current developments. Not being able to see the situation developing with the three handling the toad, she grew concerned as she was instead able to hear their voices with a very vague feel of what was happening. With Ettamari's words providing of sense of security in defeating the toad, Ash's own observation concerned her with Muu and the girl's injuries, having left her behind to handle herself.

While Alri-Qua's [Protection] was still hovering over the party, it could only do so much in terms of bolstering them. The boons granted, being gains in physical capabilities was probably negligible to Ettamari and the healing while helpful to Muu, probably wasn't enough to handle whatever hit her. With precautions already set up by her, it probably wasn't enough as she would have to keep an eye out for any opportunities to circle back around.

Having her priorities already set, she could only adapt to the situation and support her teammates as their priest, allowing them to work at the best they currently could achieve. Making sure that the individual gears that made the machine that was the party were polished and in the best condition they could be.

Species ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ ' Mage ' Magic itself is a phenomenon primordial to the world just like gravity or magnetism once natural to humans yet became aberrant in nature, over the course of humanity's existence. Coming as punishment for the hubris of mages who sought godhood by dominating magic and thus control over reality itself, causing a civil war between themselves. With the Resistance winning, these tyrants were took down from power but at the damage afterwards caused the sundering of what the magical world is today. Individuals who have the capability to tap into the force of magic are known as mages. But besides that designation, they are split into two major groups that branch out into numerous paths which explain how they are able to acquire their ability to tap into that power. Those who study the art of magic from the fundamentals and up are known under many names, being the scientists of magic as they use their knowledge to manipulate it. They lack the instinctual ability to control magic and instead use pre-established methods as their foundation before building upon it with their own experience over time. From witches to wizards, priests to warlocks, these mages have many names for themselves around the world but the fact still remains true that they can use magic. With Vincent finding himself in this group. There are also those who naturally possess the affinity to utilize it within their blood. These individuals are known as sorcerers who possess that inborn talent that comes from their ancestors who were supernatural. They are able to use magic with just their instincts and they do not have to learn the fundamentals of magic but rather what drives their ability to use it instead. Faction Alignment ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ Freedom, Secrecy, Self Interest. Vincent himself doesn't care much for the politics of the mundane or supernatural so long as they do not forcefully impose themselves on him. A privilege one could say for a mage who can mostly go undetected in normal society, but that doesn't mean he is apathetic to what they are doing. As he himself values the secrets hidden within the dark, there are skeletons in the closet that are better left in the dark rather than exposing them to the light. As there are already enough problems as is with the world now publicly aware of the existence of 'supernaturals' both for the mundane and supernatural, but what has happen is already a fact for their reality. It is now up to them to take their situation and make the most out of it.

Will change to reflect that, thanks!

Fate/Eternum

Actually this post feels half-assed, I'm aborting! Back in a few... You guys saw nuthin!

The Faraway Land: Knights vs Dragons (CLOSED)

Count Alexander Gallagher

In the heart of Drakengard lied Southaven where the king's summons were destined to meet and what matter it concerned wasn't much of a guess upon traveling to the bustling city. Having received his letter early in the morning where a messenger delivered his summons to him, he was already awake at such an odd hour, with some of his paperwork sprawled across his desk. Clerical and unimportant in its nature compared to a message with the king's seal as he unsealed and read its content...

Upon finishing it and rereading it, he began preparations to leave upon receiving that summon, he enlisted several servants to prepare some gear for traveling and a few of his messengers to acquire two of his own soldier to accompany him upon horseback when the time came. He'd make the trip easily within an hour or sooner if he rushed, taking time to make sure all his business was in order as he kissed his family goodbye and a shallow explanation of what was happening. Grabbing something small to eat and washing himself thoroughly before dressing himself, he left in the morning where everyone were preparing themselves for the day.

Having an entourage of four guards under his employee as he had them alongside himself for the short journey, for one could never be too cautious during these times. Having made sure to dress modestly and wear a cloak on top as an additional layer, it was an odd time for anyone to be traveling but the roads were empty and that was good enough for him.

---

---

Entering Southaven an hour or two before the stroke of noon, he entered the city with no problem despite the recent situation that may have put them on edge. Being a notable figure of nobility that they were probably made sure to recognize, Alexander didn't mind their duties as he was compliant and engaging with them as he warmly brought them into some small talk to wind down their nerves while they check his group over. Eventually asking them what they know about the dragon situation in Brixton and if anything notable is happening because of it before attending the meeting.

Once they were done, his party left into the city as they walked through the streets, heading toward a small property possessed by Alexander that was effortless to do. Being comparable modest in amenities and size, it was intended for its subtly as it would occasionally house himself if needed or in this case, his personal guards until he retrieved them. Asking them to stay close for the duration of their stay if they were needed to be called upon.

---

---

Having the time to look himself over and fix his appearance, swapping his clothing for more finer apparel in preparation to travel to the palace, having two of his guard accompany him as they exchanged small talk throughout the city. Getting closer to the palace lobby, upon seeing the blonde Petronus, he dismissed the two guards that accompanied him before approaching them.

" Muu, its heavy! Keep to its back after you poke it! I'll cover Matteo "

Gwyn shouted as the the Blade Dancer took off, much faster than what she'd be able to do but she had her own objective to accomplish. With her mind sorting through the prayers fresh in her memory, she began to pull one that was quite necessary right know. Seeing Matteo quite panicked as he gave a mad dash for his life away from the tongue, she was quite the airhead to never consider the frog being such a huge size to munch on livestock whole but then again she was stuck inside a church for a few years so who could blame her?

" O Keeper of the Sun, Alri-Qua... "

She began her prayers as she continued the observation of her team mates and their positions, now placed in quite a precarious situation, there was still hope that everything could still be neatly wrapped and finished. Running towards Matteo as [Ward] was being prepared, it was because even if that tounge was avoided, Matteo was still on the ground face-first into the dirt. Vulnerable to a followup attack on the toad should its attention retain on the thief, the effective distance on her spell being adequate to protect him from a very short distance away but it was better than nothing or herself if its attention bounce over.

With its abnormally large size for a frog, it probably did not care for the cover of the grass around them, its perspective towering them and seeing through what little cover would normally be available to them. Jumping into the cover of the grass perhaps would've worked for a shorter foe, but something that size could track a moving body in the grass like nothing. Now on the ground with his ability to move being removed entirely, Matteo was an easy prey for the frog to take a second swipe with that tongue of its and he wouldn't be able to dodge it a second time with his head on the ground.

She could provide some cover momentarily for the Rouge to recover but she'd have to worry about Muu on the opposite side as well, probably causing the frog to take an extra moment or two to turn around and at least backlash against the annoyance. But its heavy size and the potential gain for taking a single foe behind it versus the the assortment it had on the left, she gauged the toad's attention would most definitely be retained on them...

These calculations were done as the situation was observed, with her also taking mind of the path that the rouge took as she went ahead of him, as the words of her prayer echoed with it finishing as she approached in front of fallen Matteo as he threw himself.

" Keep the darkness at bay, Ward! "

She shouted loudly before shimmering screen of energy appeared in front of them as it covered their position from at least a single attack, providing some time to recover for the two of them. Breathing a tad heavily as she was out of shape, her feet ached a bit for the pain was temporary but the lives she promised to protect were in her hands.

Fate/Eternum

I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think.

Servant

• Name: Socrates
• Class: Avenger
• Personality:
  Despite summoned in this particular class container, a person could do a double take at Avenger and still reluctantly wonder if a bad joke was made. Wondering if someone is yanking their chain or if what they are saying is actually true, as dubious it may seem.
  
  As an aloof and bubbly character that ways seems to always be in the mood for a conversation if you got the time to spare or even waste if you want to procrastinate on something. He doesn't mind, finding whoever is in his company is an interesting puzzle to be solved, with people living in their own individual bubbles separated from one another.
  
  Inquisitive and thoughtful as he unravels the world through questions asked in conversation and exploration that strikes deeper to the foundation. Finding interest in unearthing the true nature of people as they discover who they are as individuals as they search within themselves. For the journey to reach the end of the goal is part of the fun that stimulates the mind for the future.

• Parameters:
  
  • Strength: D
  • Endurance: D
  • Agility: D
  • Mana: B
  • Luck: D
  • Noble Phantasm: B+

• Class Skills:
  
  • Avenger: C
    
    Accepting the misfortunes that fell upon Athens and making himself as the scapegoat to cleanse the city from the strife that it was suffering from. He sought to hone his fellow citizen's sense of righteousness and ability to question all throughout his life, accepting their resentment in order to better themselves. The more hatred he gathers, the more persuasive he becomes rather than increasing in physical strength.
  
  
  • Self-Replenishment (Mana): D+
    
    When engaging or receiving any kind of offensive action, a small amount of magical energy is generated from Avenger, with the debate and challenge of ideas strangely qualifying for the activation of this skill. When Avenger operates toward the promotion of order and maintenance of the law, he gains the bonus modifier that allows magical energy to slowly generate autonomously into his reserves. It is always active with his Noble Phantasm, being just enough to cover the cost of Phronēsis and always keep it manifested.
  
  
  • Memory Correction: C-
    
    A skill that generally increases the damage of an attack from a critical opening that a target may have from forgetfulness. For Avenger, it instead serves as something for him to always remember his opponent's argument, secondarily used to increase the damage against them when contradiction occurs that results in the negative modifier.

• Personal Skills:
  
  • Innocent Creation: EX
    
    There is absolutely nothing that has been recorded about Avenger from himself personally or even anything that was created by him, being an individual that would've have disappeared into the past had it not been for others who recorded his legacy. Influenced greatly from his pupil Plato, Avenger was known to be a Lover of Wisdom who fully dedicated himself to seeking the truth and was one of the founders for Western Philosophy.
  
  
  • Single-Mindedness: A+
    
    The ability for an individual to immerse themselves in something subject, exhibiting a superhuman degree of focus. Avenger himself is a special case, as his origin was revealed to himself from the Oracle of Delphi, fueling his eternal search for the one singular truth that was hidden beneath everything. In this case, it manifests itself as a version of mental pollution almost absolute in nature which prevents people from truly understanding Avenger or affecting him in any meaningful way.
  
  
  • Connection to the Root: D
    
    At the end of his life, during the last fading moments of his life was where he saw the end of all things, the truth that was the origin of all things. A gift from a greater entity that allowed the chance of Avenger to momentarily glimpse at the Root which connected Avenger to that 'source' of wisdom. Influencing him as a Servant, most noticeably causing pure magical damage to be inflicted with his voice vibrates with ideas and concepts that are being attempted to be understood by lesser minds.
    
    With a luck check, Avenger can attempt to haphazardly recall information from the Root, most likely failing in the process and inflicting damage onto himself. But as a side effect, this skill also provides a large resistance against illusions, allowing Avenger to ground himself and see the truth of things, discerning their properties.
  
  
  • Charisma: C-
    
    The rhetoric of Avenger is extremely compelling and conductive to those who wish to learn more but against those who innately disagree will become more entrenched in their mindset. With some of the most incompatible, they may even become enemies rather than allies when he opens his mouth, which is kind of understandable as he is annoying at times.

Noble Phantasm:

Noble Phantasm 1

• Name: Phronēsis - Purity of Thought, Sense, Judgement, Wisdom, and Prudence
• Rank: C+
• Type: Anti-Unit
• Appearance: The appearance of Phronēsis is more of an aura that surrounds Avenger, barely noticeable other than the meager glow that comes off his skin that's probably only noticeable in the dark. When in the presence of something 'Evil' or 'Negative' the glow is intensified, being noticeable as it extends from Avenger as it tries wards away any influence.
• Effects:

Avenger believe that if the wrongdoing and behavior that was not virtuous resulted from ignorance, then the one who did it knew no better. Saying that a person who was virtuous in action, thought, and spirit would not be able to be wronged by a person less virtuous than them. He lived up to this standard and in the end, Socrates accepted his death sentence when most thought he would simply leave Athens, feeling he could neither run away or go against the will of the community. His valor was remarkable that manifested itself as a Noble Phantasm that is always active, protecting Avenger from harm so long as he remains virtuous, taking off a set amount of damage [ C Rank] against attacks while also increasing the process of healing.

Against those that are of the 'Evil' or 'Negative' alignment, the difference in morality between Avenger and the target is so great that this Noble Phantasm gains the bonus modifier. Becoming a potent conceptual defense of 'purity', where he stated that no lesser individual may truly harm the virtuous even if physical harm fell upon them. As they could not affect the purity of his soul or it's integrity, with only himself being the one determining the destination of where it shall go.

>/list>

Noble Phantasm 2

• Name: Law of Athens - Daemon of Law, Purity, and Wisdom
• Rank: B++
• Type: Anti-Chaos
• Appearance: More conceptually when it is passively used, looking around Avenger, his environment seems to be more orderly than other places. Things just seems to smoothly go along as intended with nothing too dramatic happening and accidents seem less likely to occur in such a pleasant environment. When actively used, they manifest in the form of chains made from words
• Effects:

Background

Daemons are existences founded within the 6th Imaginary Aspect, called forth by human desires and wishes, that materialize as Phantasms formed from the thoughts of humanity. Acting to realize the wishes they come to be invested within by distorted means.

Born within the city of Athens, a existence built upon the laws of society that were created by the citizens and wish for them to be upheld and followed allowed for this daemon to be born. 'The Law of Athens' as Avenger described the entity was the designation that was given for the Daemon and in it's prime held substantial power even during its decline where the government of Athens deteriorated and people began to doubt the law's ability to fulfill their needs.

It was a daemon that favored a certain individual, almost finding similarity in another being who shared held unshakable faith in the virtue and laws of the people, seeking to improve them so that they could be the best for everyone. To attach itself to Avenger who was the individual it found was almost effortless, being an anchor for such an entity like him was second nature but influenced the world around him. Rather than fully possessing the host and destroying such a compatible vessel, the daemon exerted its powers through Avenger and allowed them to shape Athens with their words. In his pursuit for Akasha, his death planned by his opponents weren't simply to spite the philosopher but aimed to get rid of a host for the daemon, with both following their doctrine to the exact lettering which they took advantage of.

In the end of his lifetime, the Daemon empathized with the philosopher and in return for the man's duty, who have went through poverty and strife was awarded a single gift that it aligned with. Before detaching itself from its anchor, it opened a path towards Akasha within Avenger in those final moments that pushed the existence that was him to its limit, reaching the pinnacle of [The Truth that upholds Society].

Manifested as a servant, he is the potential host to the Daemon 'Law of Athens' who has long since past from the Modern World, his existence has been influence from such an relationship.

Effect

Avenger's conceptual nature brings about the 'laws of society' that influences the natural and predetermined outcome of events to correctly come into fruition. Providing feedback against unnatural phenomenon that may try to influence the system and disturb the process in the form of negative modifiers, as entities which have a Luck Parameter or fate manipulating abilities above [C Rank] receive a single negative modifier on them for each rank they go above it.

When the Noble Phantasm is consciously activated, Avenger can manifested the laws imprinted on the land and impose the rules upon an individual, affecting them in a variety of ways, both detrimental and beneficial in possibilities. Functioning as a type of conceptual ability that ensures that the laws will be followed, harming those that do not follow them while ensuring the safety of those who do, as what the ideal laws should do.

Avenger's overall ability to use this Noble Phantasm comes from the seed within him to birth the Daemon 'Law of Athens' should the opportunity to cultivate that piece ever take place. With the two additional modifiers coming from Avenger progression of becoming the host of a True Demon, with his nature becoming less of something that can be classified as a Servant.

• Alignment: Lawful Good

Count Alexander Gallagher

" Hey Gramps... "

♠ ♦ ♠ ♦ ♠ ♦ ♠

Characteristics

• Date of Birth: May 22, 3107
• Hair Color: Pepper and Salt / 'Black and White'
• Eye Color: Dark Brown
• Skin Color: Fair Complexion
• Species: Human

Possessions

• Weapons:
  
  • A mechanical bow inside an holster, resting on his back for the moment. From its construction, it outperforms any mundane bow due to the nature of its mechanisms but lacks any other special quality outside of its craftsmanship.
  • A quiver for arrows also rests on his back, sitting behind the bow and accessible to be drawn when he needs it
  • On his person, he also possesses a short sword that possesses the same mechanical handiwork and is made from dense metals, capable of folding upon itself to be hidden. He usually keeps it on his left side, hidden underneath his cloak.

• Armor:
  
  • A simple set of leather armor, allowing ease of movement with layer of cloth underneath which provides adequate protection overall. Only wears it when expecting to get into trouble, trading it for more fancier clothing in the meanwhile
  • A cloak on his back that allows for the hood to be pulled over his features, providing some protection from recognization and stealth

Skills & Abilities:

• Charm and Wits. The typical skill set of a noble who dances upon the delicate surface of court, forging alliances and deals that slowly change the landscape of power between nobility. Having the general skill set of being pleasant talker and even more important, to listen to what others say, he has a warm and outgoing presence around himself that he carries with confidence. Fatherly in figure and action, Alexander wouldn't seem like the kind of person who would be entirely conductive with style that the court of nobles generally play.
  
  While being openly fun and engaging in social events, don't let that fool anyone as he possesses a silver tongue that can ease its way into anyone's conscious and subconscious thoughts. He is quite the charming figure, having the words to swoon people if needed, get those he wants to listen, and even persuade others to follow through his requests.

Relationships:

• A minor noble who possesses land close to the heart of Drakengard, formerly the head of the family until a few years ago before slowly handing it off to his son who grew of age to inherit the responsibility. With the watchful eye of a few deeply trusted individuals and his wife, he is assured that they will be able to handle things while he is gone or if the worse comes to fall upon himself. Even their daughter is trained in the ways of ruling should it be necessary but has deferred the position to her older sibling, preferring a calmer life.
  
  Prior to Alexander though, the noble family of Gallagher was in fact an unimportant family who simply possessed the status with nothing of note. With the land and funds to simply have a leisurely life, they lacked any significant dealings with the court other than marriage arrangements and building small connections. With Alexander becoming the head however, he has taken the effort to have raised the standing of the household to be surprising influential under him.
  
  To most however on this mission, he is like any of your ordinary knights who volunteered to join the party and offer his skills as a spokesperson. Having shown the skills to adequately protect himself and have sufficient martial prowess, he was qualified to join.

Blurb:

As a father myself, I can empathize with the king's worry not only for his missing daughter but the safety of not only his family and the kingdom itself. The nobles back home choose to bicker and consolidate their own power instead of taking action personally, referring vassals in their name to fulfill their place in any task that befalls upon them.

To that I simply am sad to see the reluctance of my peers, yet many would say that I am off my rockers for giving up such a position of comfort. But I say in return that the few decades so far have been kind for me and I am simply repaying the King for the opportunities that have been given to us from his reign. In return for our loyalty he should only be capable of giving us more years of peace and prosperity without worry, for he has more than enough on his plate without worrying for his daughter and that trouble with the dragon.

What does a nobleman have to offer to a group of knights? While I can assure you that I'm capable with my swordsmanship, but what I have is the way with words that may smooth our journey over. Not all of our situation will be placing us in a battle where we lock blades, so it is my duty to navigate any conversations with anyone that could prove beneficial to our mission. So in that light, I look forward to working with you all.

Fate/Eternum

I'd be willing to join in the fun if you'd have me. If so then I'll get started soon!
