citw: the generous

I'd like to invite you to write up Pala as an Emeyan, and have her become a dream companion of Hart's.

citw: endgame 1: dreams

You gave "The Door" one day of your life. This will be a plot which is either approved, or run, by me! Therefore if you have a plot you'd really like to run - give me a yell and we'll work it out.

the dead

You have taken a step towards Immortal status yourself. You are now able to access your Emean Domains. Hart automatically just... knows this and knows how.

the call: overview review

Lust - you may keep ahold (pardon the pun) of her - please submit to the PSF if you wish to.

life forged, death forged

Following the events of the Forging, things on Scalvoris would never quite be the same. Each person present is given a task by one of the Immortals. It is entirely optional and will infer no negative consequence if you do not do it.

The Immortal who approaches Hart is Vhalar
The Guardian of Oaths approaches Hart and speaks quietly with him. He wants to try and understand the importance of Festivals to mortals on Idalos. What do they mean, what kind of festivals do people prefer and how do they like to celebrate them. Are they popular because of the topic they are about / issue they celebrate, or is it because of the chance to do something different? Is it something else? He'd like to try and find out, if he could, and he was wondering if Hart might have some ideas or be willing to gather some information for him?

Will you help?

and

Cassion's Favour Since Hart has no wish for blessings, Cassion instead offers him a single ability from his mark, in an item, which can be used 3 times a season. The ability is up to Hart and may be from Favoured or Adored Sojourn. (Please note, there is a re-write of Sojourn in the works. As and when that hits the boards, you will be able to change it, if so desired). Cassion also removes Hart's Attunement spark. You are now at 0 XP and uninitiated - you may re-assign the points to any non-magic skill.

skills
politics 30/100 [competent]
leadership 30/100 [competent]
socialization 30/100 [competent]
blades: one-handed 10/100 [novice]

personality
Fond is the best way to describe Noah; fond of his position, his life, his wife, his children. Noah has most always been content to live his life as a baron, glad to imbibe of the wealth and status of his family. That is not to say that Noah is greedy or arrogant; on the contrary, he has a kind heart and a likability that most find difficult to disagree with. Mostly, Noah just wants to be happy and let others deal with the tragedies of life.

history
Noah Venora has lived a simple life, for being a noble. His mother, Ebony Venora, is a very strict woman with very particular views about what it means to be nobility. As such, early in life Noah agreed to an arranged marriage with a noble woman whom he later found love with, Shannon Meadow. Noah and Shannon promptly produced four heirs, including two sons Tristan and Teddy.

However, like many, Noah made mistakes in his youth. He found himself, around the time of his engagement, to be in an adulterous relationship with another woman. The woman, who was more beautiful than any woman he'd ever met before, said her name was Ambrosine. Though their time spent together was defiantly public, it was not to last. By the end of the Vhalar of their love, Noah was married to Shannon Meadow. It seemed that Ambrosine was there one day; gone mysteriously the next.

Over time, Noah's memories of Ambrosine have faded as he turned his affections to his wife and children. Nowadays, he thinks little of his past love, if at all.

other
Noah doesn't know that the woman he had an affair with, Ambrosine, was the immortal Edasha. Neither does he know that, when she left, she was pregnant with his first son, Hart.

notes
Ebony Venora, Noah's mother, is a noble NPC of Venora with an NPC writeup, here.
Noah Venora is a noble NPC of Venora, listed in Venora's noble lines, here.
Noah was previously approved as an NPC in Hart's mortalborn approval, here.
This writeup is much like the previous writeup, but some edits have been made.

With this approval, Noah will remain a part of Hart's mortalborn story as his father, and will be linked to on Hart's CS, but will be Tristan Venora's personal NPC.

family and companions

name Karshe (Xanthean for "deer") [Karshe is not an approved NPC.]
breed red deer
gender female
birth season unknown, circa 713
size / height (at shoulder) 3' 6" (full-grown height)
weight 350 lbs (full-grown weight)

personality
Karshe is caring, courageous, loyal, and kind. Much like Hart she believes in doing her best to help people, though unlike Hart she prefers to help those who are deserved. Loyal to Hart's friends and family but especially to Hart himself, Karshe thinks of herself as Hart's conscience, and, when she can be, prefers to be by his side.

history
Uncertain of where she came from, with little memory from before, Karshe only knows that she met Hart in the Maze, and that before the Maze she might have been a normal deer. Though she doesn't speak of it unless prompted, at times she feels a longing, a wistfulness or nostalgia for things she cannot remember but must have once known. As a deer she misses the deep forest and being around others of her kind, even if she cannot remember her forest or her herd.

other
Karshe is Hart's companion. Ever since he met her in the maze, Karshe has been able to speak to him, and sometimes with others. Along with the ability to speak, Karshe has demonstrated an intelligence far superior to most of her kind.

While Karshe is a stag, she considers herself female, and Hart does the same.

scars He doesn't have any prominent scars, though his skin is peppered in odd marks just barely paler than his natural complexion. These marks, barely visible, represent the torture that was done to Anthropos Apteros over untold years.

skills
dreamwalking 30/100
endurance 30/100 [competent]
resistance 30/100 [competent]
deception 10/100 [novice]

personality
For the most part, Wren is a rather subdued and solemn child. He doesn't make friends easily and seems uncertain of other people his age. Though he seems to prefer to be around adults, he has a serious face and a strange manner which puts most adults off. He prefers listening over speaking, and sometimes will not speak a word all trial. Despite this, he seems happy enough, and is at his happiest around other people and when experiencing new things. He does not like to be alone and, when he does speak, it is usually to ask questions. He's a curious child in more than one way.

history
When Hart met Wren, Wren was a man of indeterminate age, surrounded on all sides by his many wings, trapped at the heart of an Emean maze of his own making. Though Hart had been told previously that the man's name was Anthropos Apteros, the man did not respond to that name and couldn't remember his own. There were apparent shadows tearing at him which Hart identified as two mortalborn, Jesine (the mortalborn of Dreams, Sleep, and Imagination) and Kielik (the mortalborn of Nightmares, Insomnia, and Oblivion). In order to help Anthropos Apteros free himself from the maze and from Emea, Hart touched the two mortalborn and, using his ability Bliss, commanded them to fall into restful slumber.

As the mortalborn fell asleep, Anthropos Apteros burst into a brilliant light, strong enough and bright enough to batter Hart unconscious. When he next saw the man they were outside the maze and Emea, but the man, now old and scarred, was dead. Hart, using his mortalborn ability Wish, Wished Anthropos Apteros back to life and youth. Between one instant and the next the old man was a young boy, five arcs old, who did not seem to remember anything that had happened. After the maze the boy was given the name Wren, and came into Hart's custody.

other
Excerpts about Anthropos Apteros from the maze:

He had been a child when they'd taken him.

A young boy. A twin, he and his sister. They'd taken them because they were both born able to walk in dreams. Powerfully so. And so, they had experimented, questioned, probed. At first, that was all they'd done, but then they started to cut, to force ingestion of different poisons, chemicals... as their abductors grew more desperate, so too did the treatment the children received grow more extreme.

link

Anthropos Apteros slumbered and in his slumbering he dared to dream. His dreams were of beauty and life, love and hope ~ or so he believed them to be. As the rip in reality caught the fevered dreams of the wingless man, it took them and it twisted, experimenting with each one. Science, after all, is an amoral creature and 'what happens if' is an emotionless question.
extra line here

What happens if you take a mortal who is broken, emotionally, and expose him to the depths of Emea?

Thou shall not fall

... and thus, Anthropos Apteros was born
What happens if that mortal watches the torture of the one person above all others who he loves?

Thou shall not fear

... and then, his sister joined him
What happens if that mortal is pushed beyond every limit he believes he has and then left, alone and afraid?

Thou shall not die

But soon, they were both no more ...
What happens if his love was so strong that he comes back and exacts vengeance?

Thou shall not kill

notes
Hart is not aware of most of Anthropos Apteros' history. He does not know that he was taken as a child, that he had a sister, who his parents were, or from where he was taken. He does not know if Wren has living family. He knows that it was likely that Anthropos Apteros was tortured, because he saw the scars on his skin. He suspects that he was tortured at least in part by Kielik. Other than that, Hart only knows that he reached the man at the center of the maze and did everything he could to set him free.

relationship to PC
Wren seems to like Hart, and likes to keep close to him, usually within sight. Though he doesn't much remember the maze or his life before, he seems to understand that Hart helped him in some way. He doesn't think of Hart as an adoptive father. As far as Hart is aware, Wren thinks of him more as an important friend and guardian.

Please play him [ooc note: Wren] in such a way as just... sometimes... knowing stuff. He'll never know the outcome of something, but he'll tell Hart, very seriously, that Hart needs to go to X place, or should really talk to Y person. He's always right and there is always something for Hart to "do" there. Aka, this kid is a catalyst of weird stuff, adventures, and all good stuff.

updates

121st - 123rd Ashan, 719
Wren is involved in the Crack in the Wall event [ooc note: CITW]. At the end of the event, Wren disappears into the dreaming world. Because of this and the Fall of Emea, Hart believes Wren to be dead. In reality, Wren vanishes from Hart and appears to Eliza Soule, whom they had met during the event.

1st Ymiden - 1st Vhalar, 719
Wren remains with Eliza. He enjoys his time with her, and Eliza is very kind. But he misses Hart.

1st Vhalar, 719
Wren meets a man named Magpie in the dreaming world.

1st Vhalar, 719 continued
Eliza and Magpie meet in the dreaming world. Wren, who is an experienced dreamwalker and a very intuitive boy, feels like he needs to go with Magpie; he intuits that Magpie might be able to help him find Hart. Eliza, knowing this and Wren's history, allows Wren to leave. They part tearfully.

1st Vhalar, 719 - Zi'da, 721
Wren remains with Magpie, whom Wren learns to be a man named Llyr Llywelyn. Over time, Wren begins to think of Llyr as his guardian, like Hart. He enjoys his time with Llyr and looks up to him. Llyr is a suitable guardian for Wren, and gives Wren much that Hart wouldn't be able to. But, Wren misses Hart.

25th Vhalar, 719
In Melrath, Hart experiences ego death, a death of the personality. "Hart" is dead, but his body lives. Because of this, a new personality is born from the trauma of his death, a man named Eihr.

118th Ashan, 720
By fate, Magpie, Wren, and Eihr meet in the dreaming world. The meeting doesn't go well. Eihr tells Magpie and Wren that Hart is dead. Wren doesn't believe it; Magpie believes it, but also believes Eihr to be unstable, and an unsuitable guardian for Wren. Their meeting ends when Magpie and Wren leave, but not before Eihr Brands Wren.

121st Ashan, 720
Three days later, Eihr experiences ego death. Hart, because of Wish, is alive.

13th - 44th Ymiden, 720
Alive again and aware that Wren is alive as well, Hart travels to Wren. Though they are happy, their meeting is fraught with emotion. Wren loves Hart, and Hart loves Wren; but Wren is confused by Hart's death, and emotional about the events that have transpired. Hart wants Wren to live with him, but there are obstacles, and he needs to speak with Magpie.

Zi'da 720 - 1st Cylus, 721
Wren comes to live with Hart.

family and companions

name Tamsen [approval]
additional names Pala
race Emeyan
appearance Tamsen tends to take the form of children, though she may take other forms. Her favored form is a young girl, around Wren's age, with blond hair, dark blue eyes, and white feathered wings. She also favors a young tunawa form.
personality capricious, intelligent, tricky
purpose To be a companion to Hart- now Eihr. [To be a companion to Hart.]

While they are in any part of Emea or within a Fracture they can accompany Eihr [Hart]. This being can be summoned with a thought into Idalos, however, this exposes the being to corruption and limits their time [in Idalos] to thirty bits per day.

link

abilities
Moderate Emeyans have sentience, 4 minor traits, 2 major traits, and 150 skill points with a maximum of 50 points in any skill. Their traits and skills should be related to their overall purpose as an Emeyan, and they are fluent in a language. Tamsen would be fluent in Common. [link to the Emeyan ranking system]

minor traits
malleable

The Emeyan has a physiology that enables them to flatten themselves, bend their joints dramatically out of place, or otherwise readjust their bodies for the purposes of accomplishing impressive feats of contortionism and agility.

shapeshifter

A shapeshifter is able to change their appearance partially or completely, though their traits remain the same. They are able to change all cosmetic details in the frame of their abilities on a whim.

sizeshifter [unique trait]
The Emeyan is able to change their size from very small to two times as large, though their other traits remain the same. For Tamsen, this means she is able to take on a form as small as a tunawa or as large as two times her default size. Tamsen by default is about as big as a six-year-old child; by default she would weigh about 50 lbs. This means she would be able to take on a form up to two times as large; in weight, about 100 lbs.

winged flight

The Emeyan is able to fly by means of being winged. The form of these wings and other cosmetic details are individual and should be appropriate to the Emeyan's purpose and other traits. Faster and more versatile than levitation, winged flight offers greater speeds and maneuverability much like any other winged beast or creature, though the inherent weakness of depending on their wings to fly means that, if they [their wings] are incapacitated, they are unable to utilize their flight.

major traits
humanoid

An Emeyan with this trait has a humanoid appearance and the benefits that come with it. Though it doesn’t have to resemble a human, it possesses the abilities of a humanoid and is capable of speech, has opposable thumbs, and [has] two legs unless otherwise specified. [This trait can] be combined with other traits for strange creature combinations.

[unique trait]
As Eihr is blind, I thought it might be nice for him [Hart] to be able to see through the Emeyan's eyes.

deception 50/100 [competent]

archived housing

housing	date
the spare apartment over Greta Gretasdotter's bakery [Raelia, Melrath]	25th of Vhalar, 719 - 20th of Cylus, 720

Eihr's housing in Raelia was a one-room apartment above Greta's bakery. The apartment had a single bed, a small writing desk and chair in the corner, a tiny closet, and a single window that looked down onto the street. It was drafty in the winter, but the apartment was -all in all- a nice place to stay.
