Appearance

Ari'sora is tiny. Standing at 4'7", and having a slender, graceful build, she looks like a child, not the nineteen arc old young woman that she is. Arcs of being fed only when her guardian decided she had earned a meal has taken its toll on her, and makes itself known in her diminutive stature, small breasts, and waif like appearance. If she were to cut her hair, or hide it under a hat, or scarf, and bind her breasts, it would be very easy for her to disguise herself as a boy.

Her mixed heritage is impossible to deny. The most obvious sign of her Avriel nature is her wings. They are a deep black, and they have a glossy sheen to them that makes them look deep blue or purple when the light hits them the right way. Ari'sora also has her father's eyes. Her eyes are a deep twilight blue that can darken into black at times. They are the eyes of an Avriel. Instead of pupils, they have the strange white core that the Avriel call the "presence of the wind." And like a full blooded Avirel, she is able to see the currents and flow of the wind. Most of her body is free of hair like an Avriel's would be, but her Sev'ryn blood has given her some hair in the form or her eyebrows and lashes, and the hair on her head. Her fingers are slightly longer than normal, and her nails are somewhat stronger than usual, but the differences are slight enough that it can be difficult to tell whether those are inherited from her Avirel blood or not. From her mother, she inherited her fair skin, her black hair, her rounded face with an angular chin, her delicate ears, and the shape of her facial features.

If one were to ask Ari'sora what her favorite feature was, she would be hard pressed to find an answer. She loves her wings, and the freedom that they represent dearly. And she also loves being able to see the wind currents, and the fascinating patterns that she sees in them. But she grew up with a firm belief that Avriel were evil, and that has instilled a deep sense of shame in taking pride in that part of her heritage. Ari'sora also loves the straight black hair that reaches just past her shoulders. She feels that it is one of the few things about her that can be called pretty. Better yet, it is one of her mother's gifts to her, and something she can like freely, unlike the wings and eyes she has been brought up feeling that she should hate.

In Zi'da of 718, Ari'sora was blessed by Pier and Pre. Her mark is a glowing tattoo on her forehead. Since she is currently Favored by the Twins, her mark is a small one located in the center of her forehead. That mark was lost on the 30th of Ashan 721 when Ari'sora accepted Vega's offer of a fresh start in life along with her memories of the past and she was given a completely new appearance to go with her fresh start as well as being deaged back to the age of 18.

On the 16th of Cylus, 719, Ari'sora was branded. The mark takes the form of a palm sized lotus, and is located on the small of her back. While she was never registered as a slave due to slavery being illegal in Scalvoris, the brand is a constant reminder of her season of captivity at the hands of a man who claimed to be her father's friend.

On the 29th of Cylus, 719, she was branded eight more times. One was shaped like a lotus, identical to the one that she had been branded with on the 16th of Cylus. The others were a lotus growing under a full moon, a lotus in front of two crossed swords, a lotus floating in a pool of water, a lotus surrounded by feathers, a lotus in front of two crossed wings, a lotus surrounded by flames, and one shaped like three crossed weapons with a sword in the center and an axe and a spear crossed in front of it. Each one is palm sized. The lotus, the lotus surrounded by feathers, and the lotus surrounded by flames were branded into the inner thigh of her right leg. The lotus in front of two crossed swords, lotus in front of two crossed wings, and the three crossed weapons were branded into the inner thigh of her left leg. And the lotus growing under a full moon, and the lotus floating in a pool of water are located on her rear, one on each side. She was also given a tattoo in the shape of a lotus floating in a pool of water under a full moon surrounded by three weapons; a sword, an axe, and a spear. It is located on her abdomen.

Comfort and freedom of movement are key when it comes to Ari'sora's choice of clothes. Loose fitting garments are preferred over form fitting ones that cling to her body. And anything she wears must be adapted to allow her wings to be free. Materials that are light and airy during the heat of Saun, and ones that are warm during the icy chill of Zi'da and Cylus are of far more importance to her than whatever might be in fashion. Ideally, her choice of outfit would be a simple sun dress like gown with slits in the back to accommodate her wings. But when flying, she always makes sure to wear pants for modesty's sake. As far as colors go, Ari'sora prefers dark or neutral ones over loud, bright colors. She has simple tastes, and likes plain, solid colors, or simple patterns more than anything too elaborate.

Ari'sora's taste in hair styles is as simple as her taste in clothes. Her favorite thing to do is simply wear her hair down. When not doing that, she usually wears her hair in a simple pony tail, or braid. Ari'sora loves pretty things. As a result, she likes jewelry, though she rarely wears much of it at a time. A single ring, a pair of earrings, or a necklace is about as elaborate as it gets. And her simple tastes find her more attracted to a pretty glass or wooden bead than a large, bold gem. When she was a child, her guardian pierced her ears because he thought it made her look prettier. When she does wear earrings, she prefers simple studs rather than large hoops and the like.

Family

Ari'sora never knew her father. She doesn't know if he is alive or dead. She doesn't even know his name, or what he looks like. All that she knows of the man is that he is an Avriel who owned her mother for several arcs until she managed to escape while in Scalvoris.

Mi'aris was a Sev'ryn who had the misfortune of being captured and enslaved in Athart while searching for her ose-bori. She had just finished bonding to her familiar before she was captured. Her first master was a cruel Avirel man whose name she refused to even mention to her daughter. The man owned her for many arcs before bringing her to Rynmere to serve him while he was on his business trip. She was pregnant with Ari'sora at the time, but when the chance presented itself, Mi'aris made her escape. Since people distrust Avriel in Rynmere, they were reluctant to help him find and reclaim his property. But Mi'aris's luck took a turn for the worse when she escaped one master only to be captured by a group of slavers who needed one more slave to fill their quota for transport to Scalvoris.

Mi'aris was given to a trader who was more drug trafficker than honest merchant in payment for enough drugs to keep the rest of the slavers' merchandise quiet and obedient until they could be sold. Ari'sora was born a few seasons later. Although she gave her daughter the minimum amount of care needed to keep her alive, Mi'aris couldn't bring herself to like her daughter, much less love her. As a result, Ari'sora's earliest arcs were filled with neglect alternated with abuse, and the absolute certainty that she was neither loved nor wanted by the person who should have loved her the most.

Her new master used her in much the same way as her old one did. Unlike Mi'aris, he did like Ari'sora. Or rather, he saw a potential use for her in the future. And where one was good in his mind, two would be better. So with the use of Saikuru, he ensured that his new slave gave him another child exactly two hundred and seventy trials after she bore the first. Mi'aris never recovered fully from the stress of giving birth so soon after the birth of her first child. Arcs of hard use weakened her further, and when Ari'sora was nine, she lost her mother to a miscarriage.

Ren'zar is an opportunistic man. Part trader, part drug trafficker, part smuggler, he is a business man who wears many hats. While Sev'ryn by birth, he has rarely been to distant Desnind. That didn't stop him from adding "genuine crafts and art straight from Desnind" to his wares once he got his hands on a Sev'ryn slave who could be forced to make him some. He is a cruel, cunning man who knows what he wants, and knows how to get it.

From a very young age, Ari'sora had to serve his needs and whims. As a child, this meant cooking, cleaning, and making "rare Desnind artifacts" for him to sell. As she got older, and showed a skill in languages, translation became a part of her duties. And when she was old enough, he had other uses for her as well. His own daughter was treated no differently.

Although Ari'sora was never branded and enslaved officially, Ren'zar treats her as if she truly is his slave.

Personality

Ari'sora's mixed heritage plays a part in her personality much the same way that it does in the way she looks. Unlike full blooded Avriel, she never went through a time in her adolescence where she was utterly wild and uncivilized. Her Sev'ryn blood protected her from that extreme. But she does tend to be ruled by her emotions. She feels everything very strongly. If she likes something, she becomes fascinated with it. She needs it in her life in some way. In this, things that she likes are almost like a drug to her; she needs them in order to function properly. Going too long without making the time to do something she enjoys will leave her unable to think of anything else. In some ways, she has a rather obsessive nature; deny her the thing she needs, and she will reach a point where she can't function properly again until she has spent enough time doing it. And the longer she has been denied it, the longer she must spend doing what she has been denied before her mental and emotional equilibrium can be restored. Conversely, if she dislikes something, she tends to avoid it. Learning anything she isn't interested in is far harder for her than learning something she enjoys. She will put the lessons off in favor of something she does enjoy, and she doesn't retain the information she does learn as easily as she would if it interested her. Learning about something she actively doesn't like is harder still.

If she is hurt, she will not necessarily seek out revenge against the one who hurt her; any aggression she might have had has been beaten out of her over the arcs. But she cannot simply forgive and forget, and work with the person who hurt her as if it never happened. If someone hurts her in some way, she will avoid them at all costs, even if working with them becomes necessary for some greater goal. This instinct can be overcome if the need is great enough, but it is very difficult to do so, and it causes her to feel the need to avoid the source of her pain even more in the future.

Instinct plays a big part in Ari'sora's life. She trusts what she feels about a person in their presence far more than anything she might have heard about them. And if something triggers a warning in her instincts, it takes an act of will for her to ignore that warning and do whatever her instincts are warning her against, or stay in the company of whoever she instinctively distrusts. This too is a part of her Avriel nature.

But her Sev'ryn nature plays a part in who she is as well. It acts as a calming influence on her instincts at times, and it allows her to focus far more on a single idea or belief than a true Avriel is able to. Unlike most Avriel, she does tend to be a deep thinker, preferring to think long and hard about every angle of a situation before making any final decisions if given the chance to do so.

Her Sev'ryn nature also gives her a deep love of and respect for nature. She loves plants and animals equally, needing them around her in order to truly be happy. She loves spending time surrounded by nature, and working with plants and animals is very calming to her. The smell of flowers or of fresh earth after a good rain are far more appealing to her than any perfume. And she tends to find more beauty in nature than she would in the most valuable of gems.

Ari'sora's love of nature is rivaled by her love of stories. Both the Sev'ryn and the Avriel love telling stories, and she is no different. One of the things that give her true pleasure is making up fanciful stories. It is an escape for her, as she indulges the urge to imagine herself living in the world created by her stories. Her love of reading is an extension of this. Reading is a means of indulging her need to learn interesting new things. But it is also an escape where for bits or breaks at a time, she can escape into the world of her books.

Another love equal to that of nature, reading, and learning about things that interest her is a love of creating new things. All crafts hold an interest to her for that reason; the idea of creating something out of nothing, or out of unwanted scraps is fascinating to her. Creating something beautiful is even more amazing in her eyes. Working with wood is one of the crafts that she loves the most because it allows her to combine her love of nature with her love of crafts. Making quilts is another of her favorite crafts because it allows her to take rags and unwanted scraps of cloth that most people would discard as trash, and turn them into something beautiful.

Ari'sora has been kept very isolated for most of her life, and that has affected her very deeply. She is unused to people in general, and as a result, they make her nervous. This can come across as shyness at times. She also tends to be awkward around people she doesn't know well because she isn't sure how to act around them. Unless her instincts tell her that a particular person can be trusted, it can take a long time for someone to earn her trust. And without that trust, she tends to be wary and keep people at a distance. But once she has warmed up to someone, Ari'sora will do just about anything for them if it is in her power to do so. Anyone Ari'sora counts as a true friend will have a loyal friend for life.

Large crowds tend to be even more intimidating to Ari'sora than people in general are. She finds them horribly claustrophobic, and the desire to escape being trapped is very strong when faced with one. She can endure them if she must, but afterwards, she needs some time to herself to do something she enjoys to calm her nerves. Failure to indulge this need will leave her feeling anxious, skittish, and unable to focus properly until she is allowed to unwind. And if she is trapped in a crowd for too long, she may be driven to panic. Should this happen, she will lash out blindly at anyone around her until she has enough space to spread her wings and escape into the air.

Ari'sora is a very bright girl. She tends to learn quickly if she is interested in what she is learning. Learning anything that she has a passion for is a need for her as much as food or air are. In her pursuit of new things to learn, there is little she will not try at least once. If she doesn't enjoy it, she will discard it soon after that first attempt. But in constantly trying new things, she is always finding new things to enjoy. Her desire to try new things is a result of her isolation as much as her fear of crowds and wariness of strangers is.

She is also very observant. Most of her life was spent in a situation where judging her guardian's mood correctly meant the difference between being given a task she enjoyed doing to keep her busy and out of his hair, or a beating just because she was there and he needed to work out his frustrations. This has led her to be something of a people watcher. When given the chance, she likes to observe a person and get a feel for them, or observe a situation and gauge how dangerous it might be before getting involved. Sometimes, when bored, she will watch someone for a few bits, and try to make up a story about who they are and what they are doing based on what she observes of them in that time.

Prized Possession

Hotaru is a baby Nightpup. She is mostly black, but her paws, ears, tail, and muzzle are white, and she has a white star shaped mark on her chest. Her eyes are a bright sky blue, ans both the inside of her ears, and the base of her tail are a deep twilight blue.

Hotaru is a very bright, curious puppy. She is also very loyal. But she is very much a one person dog. Ari'sora is her world, but she will only ever tolerate anyone else that Ari'sora cares about. And that much is only guaranteed if the other person has proven that they aren't a threat to Ari'sora.

Hotaru's mother, Haru bonded to Ari'sora when she was just a pup. Ari'aora loved her more than most of the people in her life. The Nightpup saved her life more than once, defending her from the worst of her guardian's rage when his anger overwhelmed him. The last time it happened, Haru sacrificed her life to save Ari'sora. As Haru's only surviving puppy, Hotaru is Ari'sora's only link to Haru. For that reason alone, Ari'sora would love her deeply. But in their grief at the loss, Hotaru bonded to Ari'sora as well. The bond they share is just as strong as the one Ari'sora had had with Haru.

Ari'sora

History

Officially, Ari'sora does not exist. She is the daughter of an unknown Avriel, and a Sev'ryn slave who was a gift to a man whose less than fully legal business ensures that he does not want to draw attention to himself. Her mother was not registered as a slave in Scalvoris since she had been enslaved before she ever reached the island. Since Ari'sora was never enslaved, she wasn't registered either. And since she was born to an unregistered slave, her existence was never reported.

What this means is that Ari'sora has never been to school. Sending her to school would have drawn attention to her, and through her to Ren'zar. It also would have shown Ari'sora that the way she lived was not normal for someone who wasn't a slave. Had she reported her circumstances to a teacher, it might have caused someone to look into the matter. And an investigation wasn't something Ren'zar wanted any part of. For that same reason, he never took Ari'sora to the doctor when she was a child. Fortunately, she was a healthy child for the most part. And while she was never given enough food to truly thrive, she was given enough to keep her alive and healthy enough to do her work. Neighbors saw her from time to time as she worked outside the house, but they assumed that everything was as it should be. On the surface, Ren'zar appeared to be an honest trader, and he was careful to do nothing to make his neighbors think otherwise. Living in a section of Scalvoris Town where the neighbors were not especially curious helped maintain the image of normality.

Although she has never been to school, this does not mean that Ari'sora is completely ignorant. Ren'zar taught her how to read and write because it served his purposes to do so; without those skills, she would have been less useful to him, so he made the effort to teach her the basics of both. She learned useful skills such as cooking, baking, gardening, candle making, herbal remedies, and sewing from her mother on Ren'zar's orders because learning them made her a useful worker able to see to his needs. Her mother was a reluctant teacher since she hated Ari'sora for reminding her of her father, but she was a slave, and had learned to obey the orders she was given. And as an observant child, she picked up bits and pieces of other languages from her mother, guardian, and the people Ren'zar worked with. Since it was a source of entertainment for Ren'zar and the people he invited home, he had the slave of one of his coworkers teach her how to play the glass flute when the opportunity presented itself. When Ari'sora pleased her guardian, Ren'zar would teach her something, or give her time to learn something on her own as a reward. As a result, Ari'sora learned something of history, got a better grasp of the languages she had been exposed to, and learned a bit about new ones, and learned other things that she found to be interesting to her.

Math is her greatest weakness. It does not come easy to her, and she has had little reason to master it in her isolated existence. Ren'zar made certain that she knew how to count, and enough math to make sure she wasn't cheated if he ever decided to have her run errands for him. But she knows little more than the absolute basics when it comes to math.

Books were Ari'sora's closest friends when she was growing up. They were her teachers. Through them, she was able to expand her knowledge from the basics she was taught by the people in her life. She was able to learn cooking techniques that her mother either didn't know, or didn't bother to teach her, as well as new recipes. When exposed to a new language that interested her, she was able to use books to build her vocabulary in them as well as learn the proper grammar. She was even able to learn where the languages were spoken, and a bit about the peoples who spoke them. And when she had earned a reward, she was able to indulge her love of learning by reading about any number of subjects that caught her interest.

Perhaps even more importantly, books were an escape from her own life. They were windows into worlds both real and imagined that were vastly different than anything she knew. They gave her hope that one day her life might be different. While reading, Ari'sora was able to lose herself in the world of the books she read for a time. A vivid imagination allowed her to become the characters she read about, and live their lives for a time. In doing so, she managed to keep herself sane.

Ari'sora is also very close to her sister. Born less than an arc apart, they are very close in age. They grew up as friends as well as sisters. They were both treated like slaves by Ren'zar, so they helped each other as best they could. But there was one big difference between them. They mother loved Ari'sora sister, and she hated Ari'sora. That hurt Ari'sora deeply, but she blamed her mother for that pain rather that her sister. Even so, she was jealous of her sister because of it at times. Had Ren'zar treated his daughter any differently than he had Ari'sora, that occasional jealousy might well have turned bitter and become hatred. But since both existed only to serve Ren'zar in his eyes, they had a lot of common ground between them. This allowed them to team up as partners, friends, and sisters against a common foe rather than tear each other apart.

Important Events

On the 7th of Cylus 719, Ari'sora was captured by an Avriel who knew her birth father. Vyndar knew of her birth father's skill with musical instruments, and he sought her ut to see if his talent had passed down to his abomintaion of a daughter. From the 7th to the 29th of Cylus, Ari'sora was forced to practice the glass flute, and later the glass piano. She was tested every five trials, and was punished harshly for failure. On the 29th, she finally passed her test to Vyndar's standards. Satisfied that she had her father's musical talents, Vyndar planned to enslave Ari'sora, and take her away from Scalvoris since slavery was illegal there. Fortunately, she managed to escape on the 30th before that could happen. Her twins, Ryusar and Sai'rin were born on the 19th of Vhalar, 720 and they were conceived during her captivity. Ryusar is a Lotharro, and was sired by Hathelrri, Vyndar's associate, while Sai'rin is 3/4 Avriel, and was sired by Vyndar. Although Ari'sora has been able to recover from what she suffered during this time, it is still a very sensitive topic for her, and she does not like to talk about it.

In the final trials of Ashan of 719, Ari'sora was caught up in events that have had profound effects on her. She found herself in Emea with several others trying to find a way to wake the sleeping Twins, Jesine and Kielik who had been put to sleep in Ymiden of 718. Their slumber caused all of Idalos to fall asleep, and the only way for the people to be able to wake up was to wake the slumbering Twins.

In the attempt to wake the Twins Ari'sora and many others had to make many sacrifices. One of the sacrifices that Ari'sora made was a quarter of the energy that gets her through the trial. Upon waking on the first of Ymiden 719, she learned that this sacrifice had caused her to age twenty arcs.

The events where these things happened can be found here and here

After fixing her personal dreamscape through a series of dreams she had on the 123rd of Ashan, the 1st of Ymiden, and the 3rd of Ymiden, Ari'sora woke up on the 4th of Ymiden to find that she had reverted to the age she had been before everything happened. She believes that fixing her dream helped Emea in some way, and that regaining her youth was a reward for doing that, but when asked, she tells people that strange things happen in Scalvoris. She has no proof that her belief is true, after all, and she doesn't want to risk lying to people if she is wrong. It could just as easily have been caused by the mystery that is Scalvoris after all.

On the 120th of Ashan 720, Ari'sora responded to Baron Smooglenuff's call for help while she was visiting Faldrass. Things quickly got out of hand, and she was caught up in the events that led to the freedom of the Induk Faldrass, and the eruption of the volcano on Faldrass. This disaster resulted in the deaths of a thousand people between the volcano erupting and the resulting tsunamis that hit Almund, Harvrdr, Immortals Tongue and Ishallr. Thousands more were left homeless. Due to Ari'sora's actions during the event, she now has the reputation of possibly having caused the deaths of the Baron and all of his staff. Rumor being what it is, it has the tendency to twist as it spreads, so there is no telling what the fallout of this will be.

The events where these things happened can be found here, here, here, and here.

One of the sacrifices that Ari'sora made in Ashan of 719 was the ability to recover from emotional trauma. That was probably the biggest mistake she has ever made given her emotional state. Her experiences as an unregistered slave and the hatred that her own mother showed her as a child had a profound impact on the way that Ari'sora saw both herself, and the world around her. Those things were, in fact, what led Ari'sora to make the sacrifices that she did when she was called upon to make them in an attempt to wake the Twins.

Since then, her mental and emotional state slowly became more and more unstable as other things happened to her. Her sacrifice left her unable to recover from the trauma of nearly being crushed to death and having to be rescued when she responded to Baron Smooglenuff's call for help in Ashan of 720. And although this trauma was situational enough that she was still able to function, it was the start of a slippery slope from which there was no escape. And in Zi'da of 720, she had a panic attack caused by trauma she had suffered as a captive of Vyndar and Hathelrri back in Cylus of 719 that she had never come to terms with. That panic attack led her to be sent to the Order of Adunih clinic in Scalvoris Town where she was told that she would be held until she had dealt with all of her trauma since the panic attack turned out to be only the tip of the iceberg of the issues that she was suffering, and she was deemed to be a danger to herself and to others in her current state.

Since Ari'sora was unable to recover from emotional trauma due to one of the sacrifices she had made, this was a very real threat that she would be locked away for the rest of her life. Fortunately for her, one of her healers was able to obtain an amulet made by alchemy that would allow her to recover from emotional trauma while she was wearing it. Even so, her trauma was so severe that it was decided that she would be transferred to Spirit's Rest Oasis in Ashen of 721 where there were specialists that might be able to help her heal now that she was able to do so.

On the 30th of Ashan 721, the ship that Ari'sora and her healer were traveling on was caught up in a storm followed by a freeze that stranded them in Hopetoun on Faldrass until repairs could be made to the ship. During there stay, they met Vega, a woman known for bringing hope to people who had none. That meeting led to Vega offering to give Ari'sora a fresh start in life where she would lose all of her memories of the past, and be deaged back to the point when she had first become an adult. This ability of Vega's would also give her a new appearance, and she would lose any magics and marks that she had. Ari'sora decided that she wanted the fresh start that she was offered, and she gladly took Vega's offer.

The thread where this happened is here.

On the 39th of Ashan, 721, Ari'sora met with Darius, the leader of the Hopetoun settlement in the hopes of staying there after her new start in life. He said no, but both he and Vega suggested that she change her name in order to truly leave the past behind. She has done so, and now goes by the name Rei'sari.

The thread where this happened is here.

Housing

On the 15th of Vhalar, 720, Ari'sora donates her old house to the Scalvoris Council to be used as an orphanage for some of the children who lost their families when the volcano erupted. Her new house is located not far from the edge of the Sweetwine Woods; far enough from the city to offer privacy, but not within the forest itself.

The house itself is a tier 10 house. It is a beautiful home built with strong, sturdy materials meant to last for generations. The house has stone walls, wooden floors, and a thatched roof. Its floors and walls are heated in the cold seasons and cooled in the hot ones with the appropriate types of sand insulation, so it is kept at a comfortable temperature at all times.

It has eleven bedrooms, including a spacious master bedroom and one that has been converted into a nursery, a large kitchen with a pantry, three bathrooms, a large living room, a play room for the kids, three work rooms, a music room, a large library, and plenty of storage space. On the property is a good sized dojo for when Ari'sora wants to practice her fighting skills, or learn new ones. She also has a stable for the Scalvwing Steed mare that she owns.

Name: Vyndar Lavarnian
Race: Avriel
Date of Birth: 13th Saun, 684
Skills: Business Management: 18; novice, Flying: 26; competent, Linguistics: 26, competent, Musical Instrument; Percussion (Glass Flute): 30; competent
Appearance: Standing at 5'10", Vyndar is tall for one of his people. He is slender, with a wiry build, and a grace in movement that many would envy. His aristocratic facial features add to his air of arrogance and superiority. He has long white hair that he is inordinately proud of. And his black eyes have a cold, piercing look to them no matter what mood he is in. His white wings shine in the light, the natural oils in them giving them a shimmery look.
Personality: Vyndar is very much the typical Avriel in his arrogance. In his eyes, no other race can even come close to his own, and halfbreeds are an abomination to be tolerated only if they can be of some use to their rightful masters. But he has learned that at times, people of other races can be of use to him, and as a result he has come to see value in some individuals for that reason. In order to keep those rare individuals happy, he has cultivated a mask of friendly charm that he can use when it suits him. But he has a temper that can make it difficult to keep up his mask. He also has a cruel streak.
Relationship to PC: friend of her father
Anything: 1) He is fluent in Lorien, conversational in Dehasian, Averilian Script, and Common, and knows a little (broken level) Scalveen and Haltunga due to being competent in linguistics. 2) Vyndar is a merchant, so he travels a lot. But he is successful enough to own a house in a number of cities where he tends to spend a lot of time in. Scalvoris, Athart, are two of them.

Appearance: Standing at 7', Hathelrri is a giant of a man. With broad shoulders, and a very muscular build, he can intimidate others by his appearance alone. When he frowns, he is a truly terrifying sight. But when he smiles, he has a rougish charm that some find very appealing.
Personality: Haltherri values power over all else. And he enjoys using that power over others. If you can't beat him in battle, or are not paying his bills, you are worthless in his eyes; good only for whatever amusement he can get from you. He takes what he wants no matter who he has to hurt to get it.

Name: Ryl'ryn
Race: Mixed; half Sev'ryn, half Avriel
Date of Birth: 1st Ashan, 699
Skills: Caretaking: 10; novice, Cooking: 12, Novice, Flying: 26; competent, Linguistics: 26, competent, Musical Instrument; Percussion (Glass Flute): 36; competent
Appearance: Standing at 4'9", Ryl'ryn is a small girl. Her slender, willowy build does little to change the fact that to some, she appears to be little more than a child. She is quite beautiful, though. She has long black hair that drifts down to the middle of her back. Her wings are the same shade of black as her hair, but they have an irridescent sheen to them that almost makes them seem to glow when the light hits them the right way. Ryl'ryn's eyes are those of an Avirel, black with the strange white core that the Avriel call the "presence of the wind." And like a full blooded Avirel, she is able to see the currents and flow of the wind. Most of her body is free of hair like an Avriel's would be, but her Sev'ryn blood has given her some hair in the form or her eyebrows and lashes, and the hair on her head. Her fingers are slightly longer than normal, and her nails are somewhat stronger than usual, but the differences are slight enough that they can be overlooked unless one is looking carefully.
Personality: Ryl'ryn does not trust easily. But once her trust has been earned, you have a loyal friend for life. She is incredibly intelligent, and she learns quickly. But her issues with trust mean that she has very little use for people who have not earned her trust.
Relationship to PC: friend
Anything: 1) She is fluent in Dehasian, conversational in Common, Scalveen, and Xanthea, and knows a little (broken level) Haltunga and Lorien due to being competent in linguistics. 2) She has a female winged cat ose-bori named Ter'ali. Ryl'ryn found her and bonded to her when she was 11 during a time that she and Vyndar were spending time in Desnind. 3) She is Vyndar's daughter as well as his slave. Her slave brand is the shape of a lotus, and is found on the small of her back. She has a tattoo of a blue lotus at the base of her throat. 4) She has a beautiful, but completely untrained singing voice.

Skills

❖Alchemy: 28 Knowledges

❖Alchemy: is a subject that is taught at the Scalvoris University
❖Alchemy: is not a type of magic
❖Alchemy: is a branch of science
❖Alchemy: is closely related to chemistry
❖Alchemy: alchemists transfer properties from one item to another and unlock the hidden potential of things so that they become more than the sum of their parts
❖Alchemy: making an item from scratch and imbuing it during the creation process ensures that there is no gap in the effect being imbued into the item
❖Alchemy: the risk of backlash increases exponentially when you work with the blood of mages and blessed individuals; this is one of the reasons why some knowledge of chemistry, specifically how substances interact is very important for an alchemist
❖Alchemy: can be used to make items that can reverse the consequences of sacrifices made to powerful beings
❖Alchemy: reagents are needed to create the items and potions that can be made with alchemy
❖Alchemy: some reagents can damage certain materials, but the negative effects can be reduced by adjusting the dosage and mixing them with other reagents
❖Alchemy: more than one property can be transferred to the same item but the number of properties that you can transfer depends on a certain factors such as the skill of the alchemist in question, the type of item that you want to create and the reagents that you use
❖Alchemy: not all reagents are compatible with each other
❖Alchemy: a base is necessary; this can be a liquid for a potion, a more viscous substance to make paint from, something to submerge an item in, etc.
❖Alchemy: a primer is sometimes necessary for the alchemical agent to work; they prepare the item being imbued to receive the reagent
❖Alchemy: different primers are needed depending on what kind of item you use, and on whether your creation needs to be safe for consumption or not
❖Alchemy: when imbuing more than one property into an item, binders ensure that the reagents don’t negate each other
❖Alchemy: adding a trigger allows you to turn the effect that you are imbuing into an item on and off
❖Alchemy: accelerators speed up the alchemical reaction
❖Alchemy: metabolizers render the effect more powerful
❖Alchemy: sealants may be necessary if you imbue an item with several different effects or if you add a trigger
❖Alchemy: if two or more reagents that aren't compatible are used without adding a binder, potential warning signs include an unusual reaction such as a smell, a change in color, fumes, or in the case of a potion, the potion will start to bubble; sometimes there will be no warning signs, but the item you made won't work properly
❖Alchemy: you can only imbue what is already in the reagent; you cannot use a reagent that has heat properties to make something or someone resistant to cold, you can only use it to imbue heat related effects such as heat resistance
❖Alchemy: the most skilled alchemists can replicate the effects of domain magic
❖Alchemy: in order to achieve the effects of domain magic, alchemists use Blood Magic
❖Alchemy: Blood Magic is one of the most advanced and dangerous branches of alchemy
❖Alchemy: those who are new to alchemy should only work with reagents that occur naturally such as plants, metals, or reagents that are derived from animals
❖Alchemy: those who are new to alchemy should focus on mediums such as stone, wood, or cloth; potions in particular and liquids, in general, should be avoided until one has more knowledge and skill in alchemy
❖Alchemy: Swiftweb is a metabolizer that can increase the potency of an alchemical compound and strengthen its effect

❖Cooking: 33 Knowledges

❖Cooking: Dry heat cooking methods utilize air or fat to heat the food that is being cooked; examples include broiling, roasting, grilling, baking, sauteing, pan-frying and deep-fat frying.

❖Cooking; Baking: is used to create flour based foods such as pastries, breads, cakes, biscuits, shortbread, and cookies (changed for SSD 2021)


❖Cooking; Baking; Kneading Technique: Kneading dough is a technique that uses only the heels of your hands. Push down on the dough with the heels of your hands. Fold the dough in half. Then turn the dough about 45 degrees and knead with the heels of your hands again. Continue to knead, fold and turn the dough for the required length of time or to the consistency suggested. Your hands should be lightly dusted with flour to keep the dough from sticking to you. And you should keep a measuring cup of flour beside your work area to prevent the dough from sticking to your counter or kneading board. (changed for SSD 2021)

❖Cooking; Baking; Punching dough is a common technique that is used in baking bread, and it is essential to almost every type of bread you bake. "Punching down" deflates the dough and releases the air so that you can knead it and form it into loaves. When punching dough, you should leave it in the bowl it rose in. Make a fist with your hand and push it gently and firmly into the center of the dough. Then fold the edges of the dough into the center to form the deflated dough into a ball. When you're done with that, remove the ball from the bowl and place it onto a lightly floured surface Then knead it two or three times before shaping the dough into your desired form, or putting it into a bread pan. Punching down will result in a finer, more tender crumb; something you would look for in a sandwich bread or pastries like cinnamon rolls. (changed for SSD 2021)

❖Cooking; Baking; Folding Technique: The folding technique is another way of releasing the air in the dough. It creates a bread that rises higher and has a looser crumb and air pockets once it is baked. This is a welcome characteristic of artisan bread, baguettes, and dinner rolls. To fold dough, place it on a flour coated surface so it won't stick, and carefully pat it down into a rectangle. To create the first fold, pick up either the right or left side of the dough and fold it a third of the way over the rest of the dough. Then brush off any excess flour. Repeat the process on the other side of the dough. Next, grab the edge of the rectangle that is farthest from you and pull in toward you, folding it ​one-third of the way. On all of these folds, gentle stretching is ideal. The dough should not be pinched closed in any way; you should be able to see the layers of the folds. Finally, fold the piece of dough closest to you over the other folds which will now create a square. Brush off the excess flour. When you're finished, put the dough back in the bowl. If the recipe calls for using a floured or oiled bowl to keep the dough from sticking, be sure to do this before placing the dough in the bowl. (changed for SSD 2021)

❖Cooking; Baking: brushing a loaf of bread with butter after baking it will produce a soft crust (changed for SSD 2021)
❖Cooking; Baking: can be fun when done with others (changed for SSD 2021)

❖Cooking: Creaming means to squash the butter and sugar into each other until they get softer, and lighter. This is done by pressing them between the back of the spoon and the side of the bowl. It's called creaming because the end result looks a bit like very thick creamCooking: Technique; Frying is is the cooking of food in fat. It is considered to be a dry cooking method even though liquid oil is used, because water is not used in the cooking process - ideally the cooking oil will not be absorbed by the food, so no moisture will be added by cooking. The methods of frying in order of how much oil is used are deep frying, or immersion frying, which uses the most oil, pan frying, stir-frying, and sautéing, which used the least amount of oil.

❖Cooking: Deep frying involves fully immersing food in hot oil. It is an extremely fast cooking method.

❖Cooking: Pan frying involves frying food in a pan. When pan frying, the amount of oil in the frying pan can range from absolutely no oil (especially when the foods to be fried contain fat or oil), to as much as covering the bottom 1/3, up to 1/2 in oil. One might distinguish pan frying from sautéing, stir frying, and deep frying in that, in pan frying, the food is not necessarily intended to be frequently stirred around, or turned repeated, but, rather, turned only once or twice during cooking.

❖Cooking: Stir-frying involves frying food in a special slope-sided pan called a wok quickly over very high heat, while stirring it constantly. An open flame heat source works best when using a wok.

❖Cooking: Sautéing is cooking food in a shallow pan, with a small quantity of fat, or oil. While being cooked, the food should be turned frequently but not constantly as is required in stir-frying. This method also takes less time and uses less oil than pan frying.

❖Cooking; Ingredient: zest is the thin colored portion of a citrus peel; the white part of the peel is called pith, and has a bitter taste

Dreamwalking Skills

Dreamwalking: 22/100

Ari'sora's Dreamwalking range extends throughout the city she is in.

❖Lucid Dreaming: Upon being initiated into Dreamwalking, a Dreamwalker first gains the very basic understanding of the reality of dreams and becomes more likely to gain self-awareness in their dreams, increasing probability that they can retain information in the waking world. Not all dreams will be lucid even for a Dreamwalker, but their initiation into the ability gives them the liberty of choosing to explore their dreams in more depth, which is a prerequisite of all other implied ventures by the Dreamwalker.

❖Walking: The trademark ability of a Dreamwalker is to walk. It's to exit their own Dreamscape and step into the Veil. Their body in Idalos is unaffected, but their mind ventures further into Emea in order to access the parts of the Veil within range of their body. 'Walking' will only allow the Dreamwalker to access the Veil itself, gaining awareness of Dreamscapes in their vicinity and gaining familiarity with the mechanics of the Veil. While rare, there's a possibility of encountering strange creatures and entities in the Veil. (gained at 10 points in Dreamwalking)

❖Governing: Most Dreamwalkers desire the ability to control their environment. It isn't until they learn to Govern that they truly become able to, but the scope of their control is still limited. A Dreamwalker at this stage is able to Govern their own Dreamscapes, enabling the Dreamwalker to influence the environment and content of the currently ongoing dream by forcing their will on it, shifting the reality of the dream at their whim. They become able to create new items, objects, areas, buildings and even creatures to insert into the Dreamscape, limited only by their imagination and prior experience. They can control everything within their dreamscape, with the exception of other people who enter. (gained at 20 points in Dreamwalking)

Capstone Abilities

Musical Instrument; Percussion (Glass Flute)

Muse

A good musician can move people with their performance. Ari'sora takes this a step further. People who listen to her play are inspired in some way. Someone who is an artist or a craftsperson would be inspired to create something. Artists, craftspeople, and inventors who are inspired by her music find that their skills are boosted temporarily. This boost only affects the skill that the person is inspired to use. So an artist who is skilled in drawing, painting, and sculpting would only gain a boost in one skill. The boost in skill lasts as long as it takes to complete the one thing they are inspired to create. This can be breaks, trials, or arcs, but can only be applied to the one thing that Ari'sora's song inspires them to create.

Those who are not may feel a strong desire to do or see something they have never done or seen before. In this case, the boost will be to one skill that would help them to do or see the thing that they are inspired to do/see. This could be field craft, mount, or any other one skill that would help them achieve the goal that Ari'sora's music inspires them to. And the boost will last only as long as it takes to do it. Or it might simply fill them with a sense of wonder for a while, in which case they wouldn't experience a skill boost at all. But that feeling may be enough to ease someone out of depression if they are feeling depressed.

For game play purposes, this capstone ability raises the effective skill by one level. And Ari'sora can be affected by it as well because she listens to the music she plays as she is playing it.

Random Bits of Wisdom

Starter Quest

It has been years, and one would assume that you've been forgotten as an anomaly on the island. But see - there are people who are still curious, even if they don't show it. They would like to know where you are from and where you are going; they wanna see if there's potential, or worth, as they would say it. And one of these people just so happens to be one of your father's friends. Now, he doesn't know the full story, but he figures it would be something worth entertaining him for a half break or so.

But he wants this story told in a very specific way, that he does. He wants to put those flute playing skills to the test, to see if there's something to be gained and if you might hold some capability for future endeavors of the same ilk in grander places. You have very little choice in accepting, but it's simple: regale him with your tale through music. He wants to feel what you've felt from that there instrument of yours and it better be nice.

Grifter’s eye: sees through ruse at any level, So long as the subject of deception is theft. If someone has the goal of stealing your property or profits, no amount of talking or special magical abilities will affect you. You can see to the heart of the deception instantly. In addition, when any property a you own is taken by a thief or with the intent to steal, you are instantly aware of it, no matter how far away they are from the object in question. While this ability considers any item that you obtained through honest means, whether buying, creating, or crafting, anything that the merchant has stolen from another person will not be protected by this ability until it has been in your possession for an arc. While not strong enough to pierce powerful illusions or be used for any other situation but your personal wealth, Grifter’s eyes is an invaluable tool for merchants looking to protect their goods from thieves. However, this ability only applies to things of purely merchantile or monetary value to you. Things of personal value such as weapons and other personal effects are not so protected, as such attachments are a violation of Chamadarst's Neutrality. Earned here

❖black pants (SP)

Shoes

❖black boots (SP)

Night Wear

❖a set of nightclothes; thick, soft, fuzzy pajamas. The chest, and back of the top are darker shades of blue that gradually lightened as it reached the sleeves, which are a bright crystal blue. The pajama bottoms are dark at the top, and the shades of blue grew lighter gradually as they reach the feet, which are covered in twilight blue slipper feet that are attached to the pajama pants. The pajamas are comfortable, and easy to move in, and warm, earned here

Accessories

❖a headband; black with black fuzzy black panther ears earned here

Jewelry

❖a simple bracelet; the wooden beads, and the bracelet itself were all made by a child, so it is far from a masterpiece, and has no monetary value, but some of the beads are unique looking earned here

❖An amulet. The chain and setting for the jewel is made out of Crystalline (tier 2), and Cobalt (tier 4). The cobalt used appears black, and the crystalline appears purple, giving it the appearance of being a very dark purple-black that can appear to be either dark purple or black depending on the lighting. And the cobalt lends its durability to the metal, making it a lot harder to break than crystalline alone would be. The jewel is a thumb length teardrop shaped labradorite (tier 7). This a local renown item with the following abilities: This amulet does two things. When the wearer closes their eyes and focuses on the amulet in silence for several trills, it acts as a mirror to the wearer's mind, reflecting images and memories that trouble the wearer (emotional trauma, fears, etc.). It also suppresses things that would prevent the wearer from dealing with whatever troubles them. This can be a feeling of shame or reluctance to seek help in dealing with their trauma, or in Ari'sora's case, the inability to recover from emotional trouble caused by a sacrifice she made. It goes a step further in that it gives its wearer the feeling that seeking help is the right thing to do. The amulet is unable to heal any kind of trauma itself, but it allows its wearer to recover from their trauma - whether naturally over time (in the case of insults and such), or by seeking help in some form.

Use: The amulet must be in contact with its wearer in order to work, but it must be attuned to its wearer in order to work. It takes three trials of wearing it constantly to attune itself to its wearer so it can work. Once this is done, it will do what it is intended to do. But if its owner stops wearing it for three trials or longer, it will need to be reattuned to its wearer before it will work for them again. approved here

❖A plain but pretty necklace with a small pendent in the shape of a twinkling star. When worn, it gives a sense of hope. It isn't strong enough to overcome Ari's current situation but it will help her see a hopeful future earned here

❖a small pin which mirrors exactly the fish you saw (as long as her hand was, and it glowed a brilliant sky blue that reminded her of a sunny trial without a cloud in the sky). It's beautiful, really well made. (earned here)


Travel/Cold Weather Gear

❖black cloak (SP)

Musical Instruments

❖glass flute (here)
❖Ryl'ryn's glass flute (earned here)
❖Ryl'ryn's glass piano (earned here)

Personal

❖hair brush (SP)

Books

❖a set of encyclopedias in thanks - a full set of 20 beautiful leather-bound, gilt-edged etc.; the encyclopedia is about herbs of the world, and remedies that can be made out of them (earned here)
❖1 x copy of Smooglenuffs Guide
❖A story written by Ari'sora. Poor Penmanship (0 writing), Basic+ quality story (25 xp Storytelling) earned here

❖A story that Rei'sari wrote about Ari'sora's childhood (competent storytelling & novice writing). Earned here
❖A story that Rei'sari wrote about Ari'sora's time as a captive of Vyndar and Hathelrri (competent storytelling & novice writing). Earned here

❖Two handwritten copies of the story: “A Star's Journey; Falling to Idalos” (written with expert level storytelling and writing) Earned here



Weapons

❖A one handed sword/saber that is an exact replica of Sephira's sword, Wyvern: this is a magical blade that can store the pain and sensation of the cuts that are made with it. It is able to "remember" one cut, and that will allow the user to intensify the damage of one strike at a time of her choosing by releasing the energies stored in the sword. This essentially means that once per season, Ari'sora is able to double the pain and damage caused by a strike of her choosing as long as she has activated the sword by storing the memory of a cut in it. earned here Appearance

❖short bow; Will be made out of well-made materials by someone with Expert craft skills. Weapons have some detail and adornments. They still require upkeep, but unless they are damaged quite severely, they will not need to be replaced. Good+ weapons represent above-average standards when it comes to craftsmanship at Expert level. Simply put, good+ quality weapons are of better stock than good weapons. In battle, a good+ quality weapon might break a good-quality weapon, though one weapon breaking another at this level is considerably rare. (one of she weapons she is allowed for free at tier 8)

Treasures

❖a strange mirror (the next time you look at it, it is shattered into pieces. Yet, the pieces do not come out of the frame. Over the course of the Cycle it will get more and more broken and nothing seems to fix it.); earned here
❖a notebook with the name Spirit on the front (seems to be just a notebook. Unless it is thrown into the fire. In which case, you'll find that it's a fireproof notebook); earned here
❖a crystal (glass, pretty and shiny and nothing else); earned here
❖Ring of Reversal: A ring that can bring your character back from the dead. One ring per character. This ring may only be purchased one time and shatters when used to revive (bought for 300 point bank points)
❖+1 Stasis Dust. This allows you to undo one of the sacrifices made by someone else - not your own. This may be done in the Dreaming or Waking world and Ari'sora instinctively knows what it is / does. earned here
❖Pig-skin Blanket: A leather blanket that smells like bacon. By wrapping it around themself the user can transform into a pig, absorbing all clothes and items wrapped up with them into their body. They can transform back simply by willing to. They can stay transformed as long as they wish and use this an infinite number of times. Earned here
❖Saoire's Kiss: A small snow-globe that, when shattered, will instantly summon snow clouds and transform the surrounding area into a winter wonderland for the next trial. During this time the player will always find food, the cold will not find them, they will leave no tracks in the snow or scent to follow, and ice will never shatter beneath their feet. It is as if they are temporarily exempt from the dangers of winter. They can only use this item once, but the effect will last for an entire trial and cover the entire city they are in. Earned here Used here
❖Doran's notes for Ari'sora (earned here)
❖Ari'sora's first practical attempt at alchemy; a paperweight that feels cool to the touch (earned here)
❖1 x Domain Bag
❖1 x map
❖An Enchanted Spice Rack: This spice rack, whenever supplied with fresh spices, will provide the ability to sprinkle those spices onto confections of any sort (Not pastries or other dishes), and impart the flavor of any fruit you know to them (earned here)
❖ a small crystal glass made from rainbow sand. It swirls constantly with different colours. (earned here)
❖ a small bag of flour. It is enough to bake 4 cakes which would feed 6 people each - basically there are 24 uses, but only if used in cooking). Anyone who eats something made with it will have any minor cuts / abrasions dealt with (minor stuff only) and will feel as refreshed as if they'd slept a full night's sleep and just woken up! (earned here)
❖ a small origami bird during the party. It can be unfolded, ripped, whatever and, the next day, it's a small origami bird again. (earned here)
❖ a small children's puzzle made of wood and brightly coloured. It draws attention, should you be trying to solve it. People will stop what they're doing and watch you, they'll be intrigued. It isn't massively powerful (Discipline, etc, will be able to resist it) but it's very useful for de-escalating situations. (earned here)
❖ a feather quill. It will never need to be dipped in ink, and will change colour of ink on command, once a trial. (earned here)
❖ a small statue of a woodpecker. Once a cycle it can be animated with a command word (you must include this word in your inventory / link to it and your PC chooses it now) and will then fly to the nearest piece of wood and attempt to bore a hole through it. It will stay active for 1 hour and can bore through a piece of wood approximately 4 inches (10 cm) deep and roughly the same diameter in that time. However. It is activated on use of that word the first time it is spoken in it's "earshot" each cycle. So, if someone else happens to say it, it'll fly and find the nearest piece of wood and start pecking. The activation word is scurryfunge. (earned here)
❖ a small bird-whistle. It makes sounds like birds. (earned here)
❖ a gold coin which is most odd-looking and not a nel (it looks like a florin, OOC) - when you flip it for heads or tails -it always lands on the opposite of what was called. Always. (earned here)

Other

❖Some litmus paper she made in alchemy class; earned here
❖On the 2nd of Cylus a large, beautiful basked is delivered to the Order where Ari is staying. In it is a note from Saoire, saying that she is sorry Ari'sora had to miss the event, but that she had a seat there and that the Baron had remembered her in his last will earned here
❖a small box with 10 chocolates / candies. They are, frankly, beyond delicious and taste like your very favourite thing. You find yourself unable to more than 1 on any trial. But each one provides the following to whoever eats it for the next 6 hours: "Saoire's domain of Gifts is not merely one of physical goods, but of the happiness and joy that comes with both giving and recieving a well meant gift. This ability allows the Blessed to give both themselves and anyone they're with a feeling of joy and good cheer, banishing negative feelings like sorrow, anger, and fear." earned here
❖A basket of food to you - these are all individually chosen and are your favourite things. earned here

26th Cylus, 719: [Starter Quest] Consequences of Neglect: Skill Points: +10, Injuries/Conditions: Psychological stimuli/trigger: Ari'sora will feel a psychological terror equal in severity to these events if she should ever raise her voice in a scream. I've offered a way to combat/reverse this psychological trigger should you wish to go that route.

Consequences: Meditating in complete silence for a few moments, and then slowly humming to introduce sound, raising your volume until you reach your threshold. Ari'sora must do this for a few ten-trials (whenever her trauma resurfaces, either this current season or next). She'll almost feel as if she's able to overcome her trauma, but then it snaps back again. However, something in the back of her mind calls her back to center, and she'll feel compelled to try again. (PSF for details)

27th Cylus, 719: [Starter Quest] Fifth Test: Skill Points: +10, Renown: +5, for giving a performance

29th Cylus, 719: [Starter Quest] Consequences and Choices: Skill Points: +10, Injuries/Conditions: Scars and brands that don't fade entirely with time. Although there are rumors of some healers capable of performing such miracles as removing slave brands.

Consequences: (PSF for resolution to injuries/consequences)

29th Cylus, 719: [Starter Quest] The Language of Music: Skill Points: +10, Injuries/Conditions: Lingering soreness, Consequences: (PSF for consequence/injury resolution). Also, I'd advise against sending a halfriel to Athart in a memory thread. Ari'sora likely wouldn't survive or at best would be tortured to the point of maiming, as Avriel have a terrible hatred of halfbreeds.

30th Cylus, 719: [Starter Quest] Escape: Skill Points: +10, Renown: +10, Injuries: Bruised knees from when she dropped to them in the forest; the bruises are mild, and will heal quickly, Loot: 1 glass piano, and 1 glass flute


Ashan

1st Ashan, 719: Ashan Fever: Rewards: Points: 10, Loot: Three kittens that will be born on the 59th of Ashan. Two of the resulting kittens will be full Nekosani, and the third will be a normal cat, but after a full arc, it will be able to able to receive telepathic communication from its siblings, but won't be able to initiate it., Injuries: N/A, and Renown: N/A

5th Ashan, 719: Treasures of the Heart: Rewards: Points: 10, Loot: a simple bracelet; the wooden beads, and the bracelet itself were all made by a child, so it is far from a masterpiece, and has no monetary value, but some of the beads are unique looking, Injuries: N/A, and Renown: 5

59th Ashan, 719: Bundles of Joy: Rewards: Points: 10, Loot: Three kittens that will be born on the 59th of Ashan (the ones conceived on the 1st of Ashan). Two of the resulting kittens will be full Nekosani, and the third will be a normal cat, but after a full arc, it will be able to able to receive telepathic communication from its siblings, but won't be able to initiate it., Injuries: N/A, and Renown: N/A

77th Ashan, 719: Practice is Key

120th Ashan, 719: A Crack In The Wall: Skill Points: 25, Renown: 20, Dreamwalking XP: Initiation into Dreamwalking, 1 x set of nightclothes; thick, soft, fuzzy pajamas. The chest, and back of the top are darker shades of blue that gradually lightened as it reached the sleeves, which are a bright crystal blue. The pajama bottoms are dark at the top, and the shades of blue grew lighter gradually as they reach the feet, which are covered in twilight blue slipper feet that are attached to the pajama pants. The pajamas are comfortable, and easy to move in, and warm., and 1 x headband; black with black fuzzy black panther ears.

120th Ashan, 719: CitW: Round 2: The Curious: Skill Points: 15, Renown: 5, Other: the chance to create Leigh as an Emeyan being as a dream companion.

120th Ashan, 719: CitW: The Curiously Spooky House: Skill Points: 15, Renown: 5

120th Ashan, 719: CitW Endgame 2: Nightmares: Skill Points: 20, Renown: 30, Loot: 1) You gave "The Door" one day of your life. This will be a plot which is either approved, or run, by me! (Pegasus) Therefore if you have a plot you'd really like to run - give me a yell and we'll work it out, 2) +1 Stasis Dust. This allows you to undo one of the sacrifices made by someone else - not your own. This may be done in the Dreaming or Waking world and Ari'sora instinctively knows what it is / does, 3) +1 sword. Wyvern. This is an exact replica of Sephira's sword.
Consequences: Sacrifice 1: 1) Ari'sora has lost 1/4 of her life. She has aged by 20 years, 2) The four pillars of her fury result in her losing all fury for her mother, Rez'nar and her sister. This emotion is replaced with absolutely nothing - Ari'sora is unable to feel anything towards or about them. Good or bad, 3) Impulsiveness. The loss of her impulsiveness means that, in a pressured situation, Ari'sora speaks her thoughts. She can't stop herself, and 4) Love. While Ari'sora is capable of feeling love, it is no longer something she wants. Yet, she develops the Vri-granted ability "Love's Caress" from Bellinos.

Sacrifice 2: 1) Ari'sora will, indeed, die 3 arcs earlier. Since she's 20 years older - that becomes more of an issue, 2) She can still feel fury, but whenever she does it physically hurts her. The stronger the anger / fury, the deeper the slashing cut she experiences. These cuts can not be magically healed, and must heal in their own time, 3) The inability to ever psychologically recover from hurt or emotional damage is incredibly debilitating. Ari'sora will undoubtedly experience a lot of trauma from this - she gains the ability to create a "momento" (as per the Vri blessing ability) where she can "give up" a memory - lose it completely - if she wishes. This can be done once a Cycle and is a permanent loss of the memory in question - but also all trauma associated with it.

120th Ashan, 719: The Choice: Skill Points: 15, Renown: 20, Dreamwalking XP: 10, and when she wakes up on the 123rd of Ashan at 11:30 at night, she finds Shadow alive and waiting for her

If someone has the goal of stealing your property or profits, no amount of talking or special magical abilities will affect you. You can see to the heart of the deception instantly. In addition, when any property a you own is taken by a thief or with the intent to steal, you are instantly aware of it, no matter how far away they are from the object in question. While this ability considers any item that you obtained through honest means, whether buying, creating, or crafting, anything that the merchant has stolen from another person will not be protected by this ability until it has been in your possession for an arc. While not strong enough to pierce powerful illusions or be used for any other situation but your personal wealth, Grifter’s eyes is an invaluable tool for merchants looking to protect their goods from thieves. However, this ability only applies to things of purely merchantile or monetary value to you. Things of personal value such as weapons and other personal effects are not so protected, as such attachments are a violation of Chamadarst's Neutrality.

It's beautiful, really well made, 2) a small crystal glass made from rainbow sand. It swirls constantly with different colours, 3) a small bag of flour. It is enough to bake 4 cakes which would feed 6 people each - basically there are 24 uses, but only if used in cooking). Anyone who eats something made with it will have any minor cuts / abrasions dealt with (minor stuff only) and will feel as refreshed as if they'd slept a full night's sleep and just woken up!, 4) a small origami bird during the party. It can be unfolded, ripped, whatever and, the next day, it's a small origami bird again, 5) Bonus +1 Etiquette Knowledge, 6) Bonus +1 Etiquette Knowledge, 7) a small children's puzzle made of wood and brightly coloured. It draws attention, should you be trying to solve it. People will stop what they're doing and watch you, they'll be intrigued. It isn't massively powerful (Discipline, etc, will be able to resist it) but it's very useful for de-escalating situations, 8) a feather quill. It will never need to be dipped in ink, and will change colour of ink on command, once a trial, 9) a small statue of a woodpecker. Once a cycle it can be animated with a command word (you must include this word in your inventory / link to it and your PC chooses it now) and will then fly to the nearest piece of wood and attempt to bore a hole through it. It will stay active for 1 hour and can bore through a piece of wood approximately 4 inches (10 cm) deep and roughly the same diameter in that time. However. It is activated on use of that word the first time it is spoken in it's "earshot" each cycle. So, if someone else happens to say it, it'll fly and find the nearest piece of wood and start pecking, 10) a small bird-whistle. It makes sounds like birds, 11) a gold coin which is most odd-looking and not a nel (it looks like a florin, OOC) - when you flip it for heads or tails -it always lands on the opposite of what was called. Always.
