I just can't. This is too much. Berserk was so influential on so many things that I love. Goodbye, Miura. You'll be missed by many.

Bio
Hello! Welcome to my little bio.
Not much to say, really. Just a horror game protag that likes writing and playing vidya games when I'm not being chased by the cosmic forces of darkness. (I'm a security guard that works night shifts usually).
Personality Traits: • The world in fact, Revolves around me. • Why worry about things? You're alive, so get moving. • I like people and things that are interesting and that do not bore me. Bond: • My dad, and house Norinthall. Flawed, but I owe them a lot. • The Fraternity of Order...can't cause too much trouble. • I wonder sometimes...about my real parents and who I really am. • I really like books. Ideal: • Magical power trumps all else • I will learn all the magical mysteries in this world that I can. Flaw: • I am both selfish and impulsive - I am not familiar with the word 'No' • I will protect this secret with my life...
Personality: Raella is a mixed bag, a bit. She comes off as perhaps, your stereotypical arrogant and greedy noble. Indeed, she's used to throwing her families name around without remorse or care, using her families fortune to get what she wants, and generally using House Norinthall's name to do what she wants, when she wants. Flippant, impulsive, and an overall lackadaisical attitude about most things is how she typically comes across. If it doesn't affect her, she usually doesn't care.
Now, it should be noted she's not some villain or some corrupt noble that throws her weight around to satisfy her own greed and desires. While she loves the lavish lifestyle as her family has ties with the Fraternity of Order as well as her own moral compass, however loose it may be, she typically doesn't break the law and has a fair bit of respect for it.
That's why she learns it so she can get away with more things, of course.
Backstory: Raella's history starts with House Norinthall. As the only daughter of the house, she's had a cushy, one might say, lazy life. As a native to Sigil, the family is well known for both their long standing, prestigious feats of arcane might, as well as being affiliated with Sigil's Fraternity of Order, which the house has had long standing ties too, both as benefactors of the courts as well as judge themselves. This pedigree, is something Raella is not afraid of, nor shy about throwing around in order to get her way or things she wants.
Of course, all those of Nobility have their secrets. House Norinthall is no different. Perhaps, the most damning and salacious of which, is that Rael herself is not of Norinthall blood. Years ago, just after Norinthalls first child was born, Lady Norinthall and the child were killed in an accident involving magical experiments, perhaps, at the hand of Lord Norinthall himself. In order to save face and prevent investigations into such matters, a solution was needed. The child had already been seen, by commoners, relatives...so under the guise of the mother and child being Ill, he found his solutions in the orphanages of Sigil to take the guise of his now deceased child.
The mother was buried, the childs remains were disposed of. Thus, she became 'Raella'. A Persona that she would become fully, for now. Lord Norinthall made it clear - she would be treated as his daughter, and would entirely be the heir to house Norinthall should she do so. All she had to do of course, was become someone else and play that role the rest of her life.
Well, she hasn't had a problem with it so far. Sometimes, though, sometimes...she takes the appearance of a commoner, or other face in the crowd and lives as someone else for a bit.
Related Factions: House Norinthall - A noble family in Sigil has ties to the Fraternity of Order and is fairly well respected, if seen as a bit enigmatic.
Fraternity of Order - While she herself holds no current affiliation, they are close allies of House Norinthall and her father. She is expected to foster ties with them as well, and even join their ranks in the near future should the path present itself.
Incanterium - No official affiliation, but Rael has a great interest in their collections and has visited them on occasion to peruse it.
~Extra~
Myth Weavers Sheet - Since fell asked, I will be updating this, but I'll primarily be using the GSheets that I use.
Family Info:
The Norinthall Family is an old one, rumors of their origin swirling and surrounded in typically more myth then fact. Supposedly, founded by an old pirate, who shipwrecked, made a pact with a being for one thing - survival and power. A typical story, really, as far as Warlocks go. Whatever the being wanted from them in return, is publicly at least not known.
The manor itself, and consequently the family, is located in the Lady's ward, situated close to the border of it and the Market ward and built upon elevated terrain. The looming gothic, architecture of the manor and high, spiked and darkly colored walls that surround it and the land gives one the impression that it constantly looks down upon those outside of its walls. A curious note, though, is that water plays a heavy motif in the construction of the manor. The walls themselves function as both decorative aqueducts that have a channel of water running across into a large pond near the front gates creating an almost moat-like construction, as well as bringing fresh water through the estate.
Publicly, the family is considered highly eccentric, mysterious, and more than a little fear and shadow surround them. Not helped by the flamboyant daughter, who is constantly causing some manner of light mischief and doing what she wants, regardless of the consequences in high society. Its well known they're a family of warlocks who engage in likely not so legal magic experiments, and as such, many dark and nasty rumors surround the family.
Of course, everything is mere speculation and unsubstantiated.
“Heh, naive kid aren’t ya?” The man responded with a grin, not seeming bothered by Richard showing up here. “Ya ain’t wrong, if all we wanted was the stuff here ourselves, that’d be the nice way to go about things.” He pulled out a pokeball from his coat pocket. “Unfortunately for you, kid, we’re going to make sure no one else gets this but us.”
“We’re burying this place. Again.” The woman's words were quick, sharp, and to the point. “Can I beat them into the ground, Montgomery?”
“Don’t gotta wait for my permission, Bea-”
Before the words even left his mouth, ‘Bea’ had already tossed a pokeball at Richard and Laurel.
The released pokemon, was a Sneasel! Well, it looked like a Sneasel, though its coloration was a bit off. It was a Hisuian Sneasel! The Sneasel would shake its body, giving a little laugh as it’d aggressively swipe the air in front of it.
“Seansel, rip and tear.”
“Well don’t just stand there, Pawniard, you heard the lady. Lets teach these kids how this world works, eh?”
Pawniard wasn’t far behind, joining right next to Sneasel.
“Tch, fine then - Verdue, lets teach these cretins some proper Rossaden Etiquette! No one interrupts tea time!”
It seemed whether he wanted to or not, he was now getting involved in a battle.
“Relic Hunters Beatrix and Montgomery challenged Richard and Laurel to a battle!”
“Oh. Now thats not a pokemon you see every day, where the hell did it come from…? That’s a Hisuian Sneasel, not Native to Eidda at all and only recently reintroduced to the Nature Preserve - that isn’t even open to most public yet! Hm…well, whatever. Not my problem. The chibi Camphor would take a long chug of coffee. “They aren’t too different from normal sneasel. Claws, speed, but watch out for their poison.”
“Pawniard is a bit more usual here. Often found around Giervor, they’re not an uncommon pokemon to find in a few biomes. Fearless and ruthless little midgets, they’re tenacious and take very good care of the blades on their body which they use to stab their opponents relentlessly.”
So Yuu, completely ignored the Rattata. The little rat pokemon would continue to be mostly oblivious to his presence as he’d change course, contenting themselves with chewing through the remaining left over boxes and scampering along, unbothered after. It seemed like the only other potential door out of the large warehouse, now, though, was on the far opposite wall - it looked like an old loading bay with a few signs next to it saying ‘Foremans Office’ in old, faded letterings.
Easy enough to get over there. Just around some boxes, past some Conveyor belts, up a small flight of stairs to a catwalk above, and they’d be out.
Beeeep! Bzzzzt!
The sound of machinery powering up broke whatever silence there was as every single conveyor belt turned on - followed by large shutters closing off the doors in the area leading out! Static played over the factory's intercoms, buzzing while a few TVs also flicked on, flipping between static and showing old toy commercials. While the TVs and speakers displayed static, a faint, whirring, buzzing, almost laughing noise could be heard…
All three present would feel a bit of static charge in the air pass between them, shocking Chloe and Jill as they held arms. More importantly though, it made parts of her hair stand on end, completely ruining her hair style, for the moment.
Seems like something may have finally woken up in the factory...
Pursing the thieving ghost, Clarissa would be led on a chase through more offices, up some stairs, spooking some Rattata, and through an empty computer room. The Gastly showed no signs of stopping as the Psychic would soon find herself pushing open a door and finding herself now on the catwalks above the factory floor, a few stories up.
Oh, she could see Chloe and the others from here, below her on the floor. Looked like they were having a rough time of it, too. Whatever was going on down there didn’t seem to bother her for the moment though, as she’d chase th Gastly across the catwalks towards the opposite side of the factory. The Gastly would phase through a door labeled ‘Maintenance and Computer Room’
It’d open without much fuss, where she’d find Gastly dropping the pokeball on a table in the middle of the room before flitting off again, though it was still nearby if she happened to check. More curiously, was the room she was in. Instead of a dormant, unused computer room, every single machine and computer in the room was alight with power, whirring and buzzing away loudly. Some switches were even flipping themselves…
Huh, she could feel a second ghost pokemon that wasn’t the Gastly…somewhere. It was hard to pinpoint, almost like it was everywhere…
“Goodness, either you all are wary of me or you all are quite content individuals.” Leah would cover her mouth with a hand and giggle lightly, her eyes narrowing slightly. “Well, I suppose I can’t fault you all for that. Strangers can bring strange times, no? Well, whatever the case, I hope you can think of me as a friend from here on out.” Her distant gaze turned towards Isla, her expression softening. “Never, really. I am merely an old recluse who travels far too much in her free time. Not that I mind it…people can be so very noisy.”
“You done with your cryptic weirdness, lady?”
“No.” The woman would retort with a small smile. “I have one last Cryptic little thing to tell you, Miss Yasu. What you have lost, has returned to the start.” Leah would clap her hands. “Now, a gift to commemorate our first meeting. You are all trainers, yes?”
Leah walked over, handing Isla a small green and gold colored laminated card. On one side was emblazoned ‘VIP’ in large letters. On the back, was the logo for the hotel in Pines End depicting a Musharna sleeping languidly. Supposing she took it…
“Isla obtained the Tranquil Reviere VIP card!”
“You see, I was out here since an old friend wanted to meet me…” Leah sighed, glancing to the side as her shoulders slumped. “Alas, I won’t be staying. We have drifted quite far apart these last few years, it seems and I have no desire to stay here much longer. Consider it a gift from your new friend, hm?”
“We’re not your friend, lady.”
“Perhaps, not now, but who knows what the future holds? Just show that card to the front desk of the hotel here in Pines End, and they’ll let you three stay there free of charge whenever you want as long as the card doesn’t expire, no questions asked. Now if you’ll excuse me, I must be returning to Byjerlfal by the end of the day.”
Supposing no one had anything else to say to her, or to stop her from leaving, she would.
You're in a Secluded grove off of route 1. Heading back to route 1 seems to be the only path. Train pokemon. (Skip the grind, and we get to the result. Tell me how you train and if you just grind wild mon or some other creative training) Maybe see if the wild pokemon in the field are of any interest to you. Leave and head back to Pines end. Random event (Want to bully the GM? Ask him to make a random encounter for you that isn’t any of the above or below. Quality will vary.)
She could, have continued to believe she was somewhere on earth. Just a little bit of plausible deniability. Even the weird snake hair she had and the two shorties could be somewhat maybe, reasonably explained away. This illusion, however, was shattered the moment that gargantuan creature fully came into view.
"I did not survive a plane crash just to have my ass eaten by whatever the hell you are!" Colleen shouted, realizing she was in no position to outrun this beast, whatever it was. Gritting her teeth and planting her feet on the ground, she'd have to try fighting then. Her heart raced, pulse quickend, she pivoted, and then -
"Weh?" Before she could do her Totally awesome bad guy one-shot kick, however, the creature slamming into a gold wall of light, injuring it in a way that would have likely killed nearly any other being. The source of it? A young looking girl welding a staff and wearing a hat like some sorta wannabe witch type.
bonk
"Wa-ow hey!" The serpents on top of her head all proceeded to hiss in unison as Colleen recoiled lightly from the sudden blow. "What's that for ya wanna be witch nerd?! You wanna taste these fists yourself?! We got no idea where Here or what that so called death trap is!"
Man, she really just wasn't cut out for this whole field work thing. At least, not this more aggressive kind anyways. Numako for most of the fight since her attempt to restrain their opponent had mostly taken a bit of a back seat, doing her best impression of a nonexistent ghost. Not to difficult, to remain Moreso at the edge of the fighting, expanding as little energy as she could just taking care of the small fries. Being useful without putting in too much effort.
The only things that had made her pause were when Tera got put out of commission, and when she had to take a quick dunk in her own water to avoid getting turned into an actual ghost.
And then, just like that, it was all over. She kind of understood this spirit guy in the end. She was...well, kinda similar in a way, only that technically she was more of a priestess of a corrupt local god. Should she do something? Say something? Maybe she could help...
"Whew...it's over. Im going to need a long massage after this. Hey, you got a name ghost guy?" She'd inquire, not really expecting much of a reply. "The others arent wrong, though." She'd say, piggybacking off of the others comments. "If you feel regret about not being able to protect the people, maybe give it a go again? Wont fault you for wanting to sleep though, heh. Could build a local small shrine here. Consecrate the grounds or whatever. A donation box people leave money and other offerings."
Hopefully she wasn't being too out of line, or speaking too much nonsense. And that third suggestion wasn't just for her own benefit, either. Definitely not.
Leaving behind the grassy plains he had chased the Nidoran into, it was a quick jaunt for Richard back to the main road and ultimately the Ruin where trouble was supposedly brewing. The dig itself was fairly simple. Standing stones arranged in a semi-circular pattern half buried in the ground. A few old stones that were once part of a building stood nearby. One of the tents that had been up earlier though, was now knocked over, and there was clearly a commotion that could be heard as he was walking up.
“Awfully uncouth of you cretins.”
Laurels voice, noticeably loudest among them.
“No need to be like that miss. We’re not here to cause trouble.” A different, unfamiliar voice. Male, this time. A bit gruff. “We just need everyone to clear out while we take a look at this place ourselves. You society types have no idea what you’ve got going here.”
“I don’t care.” Laurel replied with a huff. “You interrupted Verdue and Munchlax’s Lunch time, and you should know, that is an unforgivable sin.”
“Jeez lady, you’re a piece of work…”
Getting close enough to properly see now, Richard could see a duo of unfamiliar people. A rough looking red-headed older male. He was standing, arms crossed. At his side, was an aggressive looking Pawniard that was sharpening its bladed hands against one another.
The ball sailed through the air, the Murkrow too focused on its single minded assault on Sir Lopsalot to notice the ball sailing through the air at it.
“Krow!”
A surprised cry as it was bonked on the head with the pokeball.
Once…twice…three times…
Four times-!
Murkrow was successfully captured! Sir Lopsalot grew to level 7!
The danger immediately over, Clarissa was free to catch her breath a bit. She was still locked in the factory, but she at least was probably fine, for now. Well. Sir Lopsalot had taken a bit of a beating and was looking a bit worse for wear, but that was probably fine now that she had got what she came for.
That said…
Before she could actually pick up the pokeball, the Gastly from earlier would phase through the wall, grab the ball in its mouth, give a ghostly laughed before zipping through a door - consequently throwing it open in the process.
She’d probably want to give chase. Unless she didn’t want to keep the pokeball.
Find pokemon (Specify if you’re looking for anything in particular or how you look) You can’t leave, now. You probably want to find a way out or the pokemon you came here looking for. Random event (Want to bully the GM? Ask him to make a random encounter for you that isn’t any of the above or below. Quality will vary.)
The woman didn’t immediately respond. Instead, she’d turn on her heels, quickly and a bit abruptly turning to the trio. Her right hand rested on her hip, her left arm was halfway extended to her side, palm side up, a bit like she was holding some invisible wine glass or something. Her expression though, was distant as she’d gaze at Isla and company.
A long few seconds passed. If Isla or Camila were about to speak again, they’d find themselves being interrupted rather suddenly.
“...ah, sorry. My mind was elsewhere.” The woman responded, voice soft but distant and perhaps a bit haughty. “Forgive me, I wasn’t expecting guests. I am Leah. What are you three doing here?”
“...we were looking for something of mine.” Yasu curtly replied. “I lost it here.”
“Did you now? Well, perhaps we should consider this lucky. I do not believe in chance meetings. Perhaps you three could entertain an old ladies question? Do you have any…particular dreams? Or perhaps, desires, wants, it doesn’t matter. Something you wish to accomplish.”
“Don’t have one. If I did, I wouldn’t tell a weird old hag like you.” Yasu responded as gruffly as she ever did.
“No? Well isn’t that sad…what about you two?” She notably said nothing about the burned bits of the forest or the recent destruction of this temple.
@XxFellsingxX Here ya goes. Didn't change anything since yesterday, though did expand the background just a bit and clarified a few things. Lemme know if anything needs changing again. I apologize in advance for my problem child.
Decided to go with pact of the tome, as previously mentioned. Now I don't need to sleep!
