Bio

Welcome to my Bio, random person. Yeah, my name is pretty redundant (Polaris - North Star, North... well north.)

Things you need to know about me?

I live in the Philippines. I'm a student and life gets a bit hectic so please understand if I suddenly become more sporadic when it comes to replies.

I'm involved in a lot of fandoms (mostly anime) and as long as it gets my interest, I'll join. My range is from free to casual [or well, as long as I can get it from the post I'm replying to]. I'm more of a fantasy kid than a slice of life but I think I can join something like that. I'm not much of a romance writer so I keep myself to PG-13 and not exceed anything else.

I chose Chimchar cause I really liked Monkey Pokemon for some reason? I dunno it just came out of nowhere and I stuck with it up to now. Maybe a lot of it is having it in my imagination that they just casually lie down on branches when they're resting or swinging from tree to tree.

Fun times.
@Ambra Is Flame Wheel too much? Cause it's at lvl 17 and I'm willing to take it out if need be!
Same here. If there are any restrictions, I'd be more than happy to edit my sheet!

If you're still looking for more, I'm interested in joining!

Village of Kotana
Hiroko slowly nodded at Honami's explanation which was then confirmed by Ipharia. It was definitely useful to have Honami around, considering her knowledge of such games were numerous compared to herself and Kaito. This came to the shock of Kaito but Hiroko did remember when everything started out. Everything checked out with Honami's game logic so they could likely reliably guess from her experiences.

Her eyebrows were raised at the abilities of the magical item that Kaito had chosen. "Well Kaito, looks like you can eat anything and be fine. We'll give you the questionable ones, yeah?" She said with a light chuckle, patting his shoulder. "Attunement means only Kaito can use it, right?" Hiroko questioned Ipharia with a curious look. It would have been convenient if magical items like the one Kaito had could be shared among people, just so they didn't have to worry about eating the wrong things.

Speaking of eating, Ipharia suggested grabbing some food. Hiroko had to admit that she really was starving. She wasn't sure if she had eaten something properly before she had even come home and now they were in some other world.

"If it isn't a bother to you... you already bought us these." Hiroko gestured towards their clothes, weapons and talisman. She wasn't sure how much money Ipharia had but considering she was on a pilgrimage alone, she likely didn't have much on hand. She idly wondered if she could figure out how to cook things on the road here. Surely, edible plants or animals couldn't be that hard to find... right?

"Ah, don't worry about that. I'd never think of eating anything other than the monsters we kill." Erika reassured her. From how this woman spoke, it seemed like they really were from an age before her or Ren's. She sounded so formal after all. Her mouth did quirk upwards at the addition and pronunciation of her name, but she didn't have any qualms about it. It honestly sounded kinda cool despite the circumstances of which she had gotten it.

A blush crept up to her face at the mention of the stench from the raw meat she had just consumed. "Oh, uh, right! Right. I'll find a well. Or something." She took a step back from them while rubbing the back of her head.

She turned to Ren who began to shed a bit of light to the situation. Just as she had thought earlier, it must have been the goddess's blessing of some sort, but it seems that this went beyond the advanced knowledge on how to fight like it was natural. She scoffed though she looked more amused than annoyed. "Weird ass blessing..." She grumbled under her breath.

He then began to prattle off in RPG terms and she did thank her relative experience in playing them. It made sense. Unlike the others, what she only needed to do was eat and she'd get stats. She doesn't need to get involved in any fights to get something out of it. "That's true. But I'd rather be out there helping you guys than just taking boon for myself without doing anything. Besides, we also have those other skills that need leveling up." She recalled hearing the voice ring for her combat and acrobatic skills.

"And sure, I was the one who approached you about this first after all." She looked towards the others, giving them a wave over. She eyed the portal area where the soldiers were still walking through. "I wonder how teleporting feels like..."

Village of Kotana
Hiroko breathed a sigh of relief when she had seen the village. Thankfully, nothing more had happened to them when they were on the road. She rolled her shoulders once they went through the gates. She hadn't realized how tense she was during the entire walk until she let herself relax even a little. As they walked through the village, she could feel the stares and the glances sent their way. Their odd clothing must have stood out immediately. In any case, Ipharia was right, it would have been better for them to get weaponry that was better suited to them than continue using what they had picked up from the goblins.

Once they had bought their respective clothes by grace of Ipharia's money, Hiroko gravitated towards the shops that sold weaponry and kept herself close to the rest of the group. She looked through her options and had tested a couple of them. All of them felt just right which frustrated her a bit. Nevertheless, she had settled on a short bow and a couple of additional arrows.

Hiroko had attempted to sell the goblin's bow but the merchant waved her off, calling it junk. He eventually relented to simply taking the bow off of her hands. With that, Hiroko gave a small bow before heading back to the group, idly fiddling with the string of her bow as they continued their walk.

She followed close behind the two, looking around at the stalls that were lined up. Hiroko pushed the thought of hunger away from her mind when she caught sight of the fresh meat that was laid down on the stalls. It would be rude to ask for more when they had already taken so much. Maybe if they returned to the road, they could hunt for something. She figured target practice wouldn't be too bad.

With that in mind, she continued to follow the two. "I assume most magical equipment can be found in major cities?" She questioned once they had reached a stall filled with odds and ends. Probably just a scavenger trying to make a living.

Erika couldn't help but chuckle when Ren bowed a little too fast, a little too far and hit her which was followed by a lot more apologies. "It's okay, it's okay..." She said reassuringly with a calm smile. It was a little endearing to see how nervous he was. He wasn't unfriendly by any means so that was a nice consolation. Once he had shot off a couple more apologies, he had finally calmed down and they moved on to their main topic.

She let out another nervous chuckle, her hand moving to the back of her neck. "Yeah, I was pretty sure dying meant going to heaven or whatever. Not... to places like this." Erika's gaze followed Ren's as she watched the knights carry the bodies away with minima effort. "But also, during that battle, it just... I don't know, it doesn't seem like this world gave us enough time to deny what happened." And if she was being completely honest, it still hasn't fully dawned upon her. What does it really mean to have been transported like this? Were they supposed to do something or did the goddess literally just dropped them into this world without a mission to do?

As Ren explained his skill, she felt a little dejected. She hoped that he would have been able to clarify a few fine points... or maybe just someone else who could understand what her skill was. He likened the world to RPG logic, and it did make sense. They had skills, those skills leveled up and they also had stats. Though, something didn't sit right with her. If this was an RPG game, then shouldn't she have a level herself and not just her skills? Shouldn't she be leveling up after defeating a boss monster like that Kobold Lord?

Before he could finish his explanation, however, one of the Chinese women had stomped over to them and Erika immediately knew that she was the target for this interrogation.

"That's my problem!" Erika called out, raising both of her hands in a motion of surrender. "I'm sure you know about that voice in our head right? And it told me to eat the Kobold Lord to... increase my stats... or well, to get more powerful?" She carefully explained and it honestly sounded so far-fetched that she wouldn't have believed it herself if she wasn't the victim of this very odd skill.

"It tasted disgusting, I know. It's not the worst I've eaten but it's somewhere up there." It was odd that she hadn't felt the need to puke it out despite eating it raw... or the fact that her stomach wasn't hurting minutes after she had done it. Perks of the skill, probably. For a moment, she thought about asking what had gotten through the other woman's head as to replicate what she had done and took a taste of the Kobold Lord, but she figured that it wouldn't have been a good idea to point that out. It would sound incredibly hypocritical on her end. "And my name's Erika, for reference next time."
Yeah I'll try to post as soon as I get finished. Lately my weeks suddenly got hectic.
