Plot
Eden, a utopia high in the sky. Known to some as the Ark closest to Heaven, and others, just a place for the 'Almighty'. Inside of Eden lies a man named, Archael. He is believed to be the reincarnation of an ancient race that created an artifact called the Mystic Arcana which could grant god-like powers to anyone who held and was bestowed the powers it held. Its original use was a tool to end a war between Eden and Purgatorio, a hellish place full of monsters and demons, but home to much more. During the war the Mystic Arcana fell into the wrong hands and was used against Eden and nearly took the world into destruction. The people that lived in between Eden and Purgatorio suffered the major effects of the war, turning their super intelligent cities and high-tech areas back to simpler times. After a harsh battle, Eden had one and separated the Mystic Arcana into four pieces and scattered them across the world. Archael believes that he could save Eden from future disasters and plans to collect all the pieces, but is this really a good idea? The ancient race had separated it for a reason, although Archael must have a hidden plan for using it. Will Eden repeat history and emerge into war with Purgatorio, or will something worse happen?

Permanent Characters so far
-Crescent Wing

Name: Freija
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Role: Rune Fencer
Weapon: Rapier
Crisis Trance: Riot Blade (A wave of force hits all enemies, knocking them down)
History: Freija was always living at Hyrien, and attended an academy there, she always found the fear and excitement of being in a battle with a monster. Never having the courage to leave, she remained at Hyrien's academy, and eventually the head Battle Instructor. During one excursion on the field, she encountered a Moogle. It seemed lost and was attracted to Freija, eventually becoming her 'pet' and actually learning how to speak after months of teaching it, and even taught him how to fight and defend himself, which actually was his own choice. Freija takes pride in what she does, helping those to learn to explore, hoping one day she too can explore Eden.
Appearance: (Credit)

Name: Apollo
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Role: Bard
Weapon: Bow + Arrow
Crisis Trance: SOS Wall
History: Apollo lived his life a traveling bard and loved performing for audiences. He then came and settled down as a student at Hyrien Academy. He continues to perform for the students and faculty along with other musicians. He is a good friend to Freija but has trouble getting along with other people as he is a loner. Freija and him were good friends when they first met as she was the only person brave enough to approach him, he always helps the others and makes a great supportive friend once he warms up to you.
Appearance: (credit)

Name: Arekkusu
Age: ?? (Presumably 5 or 6)
Gender: Male
Role: Sage (all magic)
Weapon: Ethereal Aura (Magical blast of energy)
Crisis Trance: Quadra Magic (Casts 4 spells, all at weakened power)
History: Arekkusu was a young moogle, who one day was picking berries for himself when the other moogles had somehow disappeared. Little did he know that it was the Moogle Migration that was happening and that most of the moogles would move off to go on their own, and he thought they abandoned him. One day, while exploring, he saw Freija, he noticed her sense of passion and elegance on the battlefield that after watching he flew over to her and onto her shoulder and she quickly fell in love with him. After taking him back, and keeping him, Arekkusu wanted to learn to speak more than, 'Kupo' and so Freija taught him to speak and now he is well educated, and even wanted to learn to fight by focusing his magical powers into spheres of magical energy and releasing them at enemies. He currently stays with Freija at Hyrien Academy.

Name: Varai (Va-rye), Also likes to be called Air.
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Role: Gladiator
Weapon: 3 knives
Crisis Trance: Fleet of Fury
History: Varai grew up in a quaint town. Her parents had died when she was only 7, so she grew up alone. She applied to work as an apprentice for a farmer in her village. She was accepted, and has been working on the farm since she was 10. She loves to help with the animals and tend to the crops. She isn't highly educated in math, and complicated stuff, but she is what you would say "street smart". While working, she learned how to get out of a tight situation, and fight back. Oddly enough, she learned this from milking a cow.
Appearance:(credit)

OOC: Almost done, just gotta fix a few things~

OOC: Great, I need to add some more stuff and edit my second post about some later game stuff. But looks great. The Crisis Trance is used when you're low on health and its your life/death attack. Like when Freija is low on health, Riot Blade is her only hope for survival and uses it in hopes of knocking enemies down to heal. Same with Apollo, SOS Wall increases his defenses in hopes to recover quickly. Arekkusu, being a Sage gains innate SOS Faith, which increases Magic when critical health.

Since Gladiators have Chain Slash and other abilities, a good Crisis Trance is something to focus on a strong attack or maybe recovery or something. Here are some Gladiator Crisis Trances of the top of my head.

-Sentinel ~ Largely Boosts Defense and recovers about a quarter of health in the process but renders you powerless.
-Ravage ~ When a Sage is on the battlefield, boosts power of Special Chain Slash and other Gladiator skills.
-Blitz ~ Low accuracy attack that attempts to defeat all enemies in a single blow.
-SOS Brave ~ Greatly Increases Power.
-Fleet of Fury ~ Bestow Haste to all allies

And if you think of one, that works too. These are suggestions

OOC: Well, do you wanna start this now?

OOC: We can start, do you want to post first?

OOC: Sure, don't forget to read over everything on the plot and character sheets and change what's needed. I also added two new guilds, Geomancer and Ninja, so check those out.

The story starts out with Freija and Arekkusu walking through a large plain, filled with beautiful pastures, blooming flowers, and gigantic trees swaying in the wind. They look around and see many sights to behold.

Background Music while exploring The Bisga Plains


Freija and Arekkusu walked over the hill and enjoyed the view, a large pasture with flowers and bushes all around, a few animals too. A soft, delicate breeze blew from behind them.

"Isn't it beautiful?" Freija asked. "I love coming here. It just seems like the perfect place, I mean when I come here, I am at peace. You get what I mean Arekkusu?"

Arekkusu nodded. "I completely understand, kupo. Look over there, a pack of Chocobos!"



Arekkusu pointed his tiny arm to the west and saw a pack of 3 natural yellow Chocobos grazing and happily playing around in the field.
"Wow. Aren't they gorgeous?" Freija asked. "I want to ride a Chocobo sooo bad."

"Kupo!" Arekkusu smiled.

The three chocobos were jumping for joy and noticed and made a gentle, 'kweh' a noise that tame chocobos would make, instead of the more feral, 'wark'.

"They seem tame. Maybe they belong to a farmer nearby, maybe a breeder. Do you suppose they might let me ride them?" Freija asked.

"Kupo. Why not try it, kupo? Hehehehe, I would love to see you try and ride a Chocobo, kupo." Arekkusu giggled.

Freija made a small frowning face. "Well now, I can try can't I? I mean, I want to, but what if they get mad and knock me off?" She said holding one hand over her elbow.

"Well, then you gotta have them warm up to you, kupo. Maybe some Gysahl Greens might help." The moogle answered. "And if they do knock you off, you get right back on, kupo!"

She smiled and nodded her head and called Arekkusu onto her shoulder. "Let's go then!" She shouted and took off running in the direction of the Chocobos.


An old lady stood at the top of the hill from her home near the village of farmers and merchants, Bisga.
"I remember when I was her age, and wanted to ride a Chocobo. Let's hope she doesn't get pecked like I did. Oh I can feel the bruises now, hahahaha." She laughed and went back to tending her garden.

OOC: Alright, well Dragon Knight's use Attack/Dragon/Jump/Item. The skills you have are White Knight skills. And let's tone down Hyper Dragon to deal heavy fire damage to all enemies on the field, and since you're level 1, the only Dragon skill you'll have is Lancet. And could you please make your story a little longer? Thanks, and overall, good.

We'll have to find a good point to introduce Soron.

OOC: Alrigght cool. You can kinda introduce yourself. We are in the Bisga Plains, just outside of Bisga, a town of poor farmers and merchants who thrive on yearly tourism, but still live happily, despite little they have. Freija and Arekkusu are playing, as posted above.

OOC: I will need to you post a lot more detail instead of one sentences. It is stated in the rules, so please do your best to comply with them. Also, I will post character sheets. If any of you create Any Magic users of Destruct/Lumina/Saboteur, let me know, so I can make a spreadsheet for them and learn the abilties you want me to teach them. (You CAN NOT learn every single ability of a Magic unless you are specializing in just a single element. Like, Destruct on Evokers, they can't learn all Destruct Spells, they learn only a few, while Sages who specialize will learn more. Any questions, just PM me.)

Freija and Arekkusu finally reached a Chocobo.
"Aww, he is soo cute." Freija said. "Come here, buddy." She said, holding her hand out and signalling it to come closer.

"Kweh!" It happily cheered and saw the Gysahl Green in her hand. "Kweh, kweh!" He gladly accepted the treat and jumped for joy.

Arekkusu laughed. "He is enjoying that, kupo. Makes me kinda hungry for a Kupo Nut." His stomach started growling.

"Ahaha, oh you Moogle, here." Freija smiled as she grabbed a Kupo Nut and gave it to the hungry Moogle. She then put both of her hands on each side of the Chocobo's beak. She then gently rubbed her cheek on the side of his beak.

"Kweh." The chocobo cheered. It then nuzzled Freija gently, and kneeled down for Freija to get on.

"Why thank you." She said and slowly mounted the large bird. "Wow, this is so cool. Come here and check this out Arekkusu."

"Coming, kupo!" He answered. He then flapped his tiny wings and flew up and sat in front of Freija on the chocobo. "You better hold on to me tightly, kupo. I don't wanna go falling off." He worriedly said.

Freija giggled. "Oh, I would never let that happen. You just let me handle this."

"Ok, I trust you, kupo!" Arekkusu said, grabbing on to the chocobo's feathers with all his moogle might. "Let's go! KUPO!"

"Giddy-up!" Freija called and the chocobo began to take off running.

Freija's hair was blowing in the wind and she thoroughly enjoyed the ride and seemed to be a natural rider, and they both went up to Bisga after seeing the moderate dust cloud.

"What could that be?" She mumbled. Taking her left hand she unsheathed her rapier and rode up to Bisga to investigate.

OOC: Alright, great, just remove the occupation part and it looks all good, CL.

Varai, in her usual black coat and black boots, was tending to a crop of wheat on the farm. She carefully watered the crops, making sure each had the proper amount of water. After she had finished, she moved on to go and refill the chickens' food. She took a bucket that she earlier filled with grain and went to the chicken coop. She first went to the outdoor eating area, and filled the hollowed log that held the food with some of the grain. After that, Varai went inside the chicken coop to fill the other hollowed log with grain. While Varai was busy filling up the food, one chicken that Varai nicknamed "Mr.Peckle" started to gently peck Varai's arm. Varai laughed a little as she put down the bucket and picked up the chicken. "You goof." She laughed as she pat the chicken's head and set him down in front of the log.

The cloud of dust had disappeared and Freija, nor Arekkusu spot a slight cause of the ominous cloud. Freija placed her rapier back into the sheath. After dismounting the chocobo, she and Arekkusu walked around. They both saw a large farmhouse and went near it.

"This place is gigantic. Nice farm though. I wonder if anybody is home." Freija wandered. "Seems so big, maybe it doubles as an inn?"

Arekkusu shook his head saying he didn't know either. "Maybe we should check the farm over there! I thought I heard something spill or something."

"You're right, let's go check out the chicken coop, the door is open." Freija said and they both walked over.
Freija knocked on th hinge of the open door. "Hello?" She asked, and looked and saw a girl in a black coat and boots. "Oh Hi there. My name is Freija, and this is Arekkusu. This is our first visit and we were wondering, did you see that huge dust cloud?"

Freija's Theme (Credit to Artist)

Varai gasped lightly as she turned around. "Oh, no I didn't I was busy feeding the chickens, especially Mr.Peckle over here. Little guy eats like pig" Varai said with a small laugh. "I'm Varai, by the way. You may call me Air if you want though." Varai said with a small bow of her head. "By the way, welcome to the farm. If you need any help, just ask me. My boss is doing some errands at the moment" Varai said as she picked up the rusty silver bucket that was now emptied of grain. She popped outside the coop and set the bucket in a corner. She brushed off some dust from her jacket and brushed a lock of silver hair from her face.

Freija smiled. "Thank you. I heard something, felt like an earthquake. We should probably check it out!" Freija and Arekkusu took off towards the loud noise that came a few moments ago.

"Kupo! Look over there, a dragon!" Arekkusu cringed in fear of a large sight.

"Don't worry, it doesn't seem to be doing anything, there must be a Dragon Knight around here." The silver-haired girl said.
They proceeded towards the dragon. After walking up, they saw a man in armour with a large sword.

Freija looked around and saw the man talking to one of the merchants. She gently tapped on his shoulder.
"Excuse me. Is this your dragon?" She firmly asked, despite having a hint of fear.

OOc: What weapons do evokers get? I just don't know, other than summoning elementals.
Name: Lorcarane
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Role: Evoker
Weapon: Elementals/ Quarterstaff favore elemental is Yamato-Takeru
Crisis Trance: Black Light- Empowers Yamato-Takeru's Darkness and Light attacks, while decreasing his physical
History: Lorcarane studied elementals for a good 7 years of her life, because how some were so complex, and some were so simple intriqued her. When she started to summon them it was merely for science purposes, but when her lab was attacked, she summoned them for a more deadly purpose. This and her quarterstaff skills earned her lab a bit of safety.
Appearance: 5 foot 7 inches, brown hair, Hazel eyes, black coat, and black vest.

OOC: Evokers, use Staves and Rods as their main weapons. Then, if you can find a picture if you want, that'd be cool. You are accepted and introduce yourself when you see fit. We are at Bisga, the town of Farmers and Merchants, so maybe have her run an apothecary or something that sells potions and medicine. Idk think of something.

"She is very... Big, but beautiful." She said. "Mind if I pet her?" Freija asked.

"I am also very protective of Freija, kupo. I may be small, but never fear, my magic is second to none, KUPO!" Arekkusu cheered. "But Don't pet my pom-pom too hard, or you'll have aburn mark on you!"

"Now, Arekkusu, don't worry. She looks very tame. I have never met a Dragon Knight. By the way, I study in the arts of Spellblade as a Rune Fencer. Arekkusu here is a Sage, he specializes in all three schools of magic. My friend Apollo should be around here, maybe the inn or bar. He is a Bard, he loves to perform and makes a decent living. We both go to Hyrien academy though, but I have been taking a small break."

OOC: Okay, so I guess Yamato Takeru will be your initial Guardian. Youj can learn the rest in any order.

Lorcarane walked out of her labaratory. Her light/darkness elemental had found her tons of herbs so she ran a apothecary shop. She saw a pale Rune Fencer, so she walked up. "Hello, want some herbs? If you want someone to help on adventures, I can help with that too." She stated. She then looked at the dragon knight with his dragon. "Wow, impressive pet. I have an interesting beastial companion as well, but still, moderately cool.

OOC: Great, if we can get 5+ lines of post that'd be great. At least 4. and add DETAILS!!!!!

Freija looked at the Girl. "Oh, why yes, I guess it would not hurt to have some of these." She then handed the girl some money. "Thanks a lot, these will definitely help us. You must run that local Apothecary then."

"Kupo, look, an Elemental. Yamato-Takeru, kupo." Arekkusu said in amazement. "He is an Elemental of Light and Darkness. He is a fierce warrior, but also a compassionate, elegant warrior, kupo."

Just then, a loud crash was heard from the Plains.
"What was that?!" Freija asked in a firm voice. "Sounds like something is running loose in the plains."

(Chocobo-Eater)(credit)

"Look, the Chocobo's!" Freija cried. "That thing is trying to devour them! We have to help them!"

As soon as Freija drew her sword, an arrow flew by and pierced the monster's arm.
Freija and Arekkusu looked behind them. Apollo must've noticed the monster and came to their aid.
"Well, I get interrupted during a performance by this? Well he is going to pay most certainly." He smiled. "Now, let's go get this thing!"
"Yeah!" Everyone shouted and ran towards it, weapon's drawn.

"Freija held up a mystical card and crushed it, and a ring appeared around the monster. "Scan!" She hollered. Moments later the ring faded away. "It seems this thing is pretty tough, but weak to Fire! I can help out there. It knows some pretty powerful attacks, so be careful!" She nodded. "Enfire!"

Everyone's weapons had all been encased in an orange flame, adding Fire damage to every physical attack.

"Alright, take this, kupo!" Arekkusu shouted. "Flame!"
A bright explosion hit the large monster and it flinched, taking a few steps back."

Freija smiled, "Great job, but don't get cocky, this thing is tough!"
Freija took a dash near it and repeatedly stabbed the monster in various spots with her enchanted rapier. It retaliated by swinging it's mighty arm and knocking her back. "Ouch, good thing I just got one of these." She moaned as she pulled out an herb and healed herself. "You're gonna get it now!"

Arekkusu unleashed another Flame spell, knocking back the monster even more. Apollo sang his mighty song and bestowed a mystical rejuvenating aura surrounded everyone. He then pulled the string of his bow and fired the arrow tipped with fire and let it fly, hitting the monster in the arm.
"Alright, direct hit. If we can take out its arms, that should greatly help."

Freija ran back up and along with Varai, attacked the monster with a flurry of attacks but were knocked back again.
"Don't worry! Here! HEAL!" Arekkusu said, casting a spell to unleash bluish-white orbs that restored the duo's health back to top condition.

"This is pretty rough, but we gotta help them chocobos out!" Apollo shouted and fired another arrow at the creature.

OOC: The youtube link isn't working for me, idk about anyone else.

Arekkusu focused his energy into a sphere and flung it at the gigantic monster, it didn't do much but stunned it none-the-less. "Kuppoo..." He frowned, "Flame, kupo!" He called, gathering his magic and casting the fire onto the monster.

The monster roared and raised its hand, a dark swirling energy began to materialize. He charged up and unleashed the energy, it was the spell Flux, and it hit the entire party, hitting them hard, knocking all but Soron down, due to his heavy armor.

Arekkusu and Apollo both were aiding the group with healing, by casting magic and singing a song of life, both restoring little health at a time, but taking the time to get everyone fully restored. Freija and Varai were on the main offensive, continuously pounding away with their flaming weapons.

"C'mon you! Take this!" She said, stabbing and slashing the monster with her silver, shining rapier and then kicking it back. It swung its treetrunk arms but Freija quickly did a somersault-roll to avoid it. "Too slow!" She provoked and quickly slashed it again, this time getting hit again by Flux, with all of its power focused on her. "That's it!" Freija yelled, she swung and pointed her sword at the ground, clearish-white swirls formed around her blade and she swung with great force, unleashing the power of Riot Blade on the Chocobo Eater, slowly, but surely, knocking the monster back quite a few feet.

"Great job!" Apollo called out. He pulled back the string and fired another flaming arrow, another direct hit in the monsters wrist, causing it to slightly fall numb. "I think its left hand is paralyzed, that will change the tides!"

Arekkusu was hit by a mighty blast of Flux along with Varai and Soron, he was badly injured, as moogle's weren't the most defensive creatures. "O-o-one m-more shot,kkuppopopo!" He said, charging his mighty spell and unleashing four Flame spells in quick succession, all dealing heavy damage to the monster.

Apollo then threw Arekkusu a few Herbs and he swiftly used them and recovered a majority of the damage.

The creature flailed around, knocking off Soron and hit him with its arm, sending him right into a tree, luckily he could withstand the damage, thanks to his armour.

Freija looked at the monster. It fell to the ground with a mighty thud, it left a small spot on the ground where it fell for the last time, its body beginning to slowly melt and disintegrate into thin air.
"At least the chocobos will be able to rest easy now." Freija said, sighing and sheathing her rapier. "Look over there, they seem to be cheering that we saved them."

Arekkusu smiled. "Look, kupo, they are coming this way!"

The three chocobos from before ran over to the group. They decided to help by using their signature skill, Choco Cure, to restore all the wounds they received back to normal, as they returned the favor by defeating the terrible monster. They showed them what they were trying to hide, a small egg.

"It looks like they really cared about this thing. It looks pretty mature, it may hatch soon." Apollo noted. "It is white though... Aren't the only chocobos-well, no... That one lady, Esra, has a White Chocobo on her farm. Maybe it belongs to her, but she has quite a few, maybe they recently bred to make this. Strange it landed in Yellow Chocobo areas, none-the-less, their 'Pack Mentality' has caused them to protect and care for it, despite different family and breeds."

Freija raised her eyebrows. "My, don't we know quite a bit on chocobos." She chuckled. "I didn't know you knew this much on them."

"I grew up on a chocobo ranch when I was six, well, it was my grandparents' ranch. They had White and Yellow Chocobos. I think they are the two common breeds, but White are pretty rare. Anyway, shall we return to the bar? I have a performance to finish and all rounds on Frei- I mean me, Heheh." He said, and put his hand on his side and looked down. "Well, I am heading back. See you guys later for a victory party."

Varai looked to where everyone was as she walked out of the Chicken coop with a baby chick in her hand. Varai took the small chick to the log filled with grain and gently set it down on top. "Eat up little one, you'll be sure to grow up to be strong like your father" Varai said to the chick as it ate. The chick chirped happily as it tried to flap its wings. Varai picked up the chick with a giggle. "Oh silly little chick, you cannot fly. Your tiny wings cannot support your adorable body. But maybe, if you try hard enough and believe, you may fly!" Varai said in an enthusiastic voice. The chick chirped excitedly.

Lorcarane had run over ther, but before she culd do anything, the newcomers destroyed the beast. "You guys have some mad skills" she observed, in a minor state of awe. She could have definetly helped, but the creatures demise was quick. So it was a little bit of an impossibility for her to help. She decide to try to find a way to adventure with them, since it had been a long time since she had felt the thrill of adventure, and these people would probably provide sufficient defense added with her own skills. "SO what about my second offer? A skilled evoker right in froont of you, at your service.

OOC: Spyro, please get +4 lines of post, it is a rule.

Freija smiled at Lorcarane. "Well, come to think of it, I have always wanted to leave Hyrien academy and explore. I have always wanted to explore Eden." She said pointing high in the sky towards a large crystalline fortress. "I know, it seems stupid, as nobody would ever be stupid enough to do it. I would though. Say, would you guys want to come on an adventure with me?"

"Kupopo. Adventure, adventure! That sounds great Freija. Well, I am in!" Arekkusu said, putting his tiny hand out.

"Yeah, that's the spirit." Freija said, putting her hand in too.

Apollo came back out and asked what the hold up was.
"So, you are going on an adventure. Count me in!" Apollo cheered, placing his hand on top of Freija's.

Freija looked at Soron, Locarane, and Varai. "What do you guys say? You in?"

Lorcarane then excitedly stated, "I've been aching for an adventure since I first summoned Yamato-Takeru, so of course I'll help." She quickly put her hand on the others. "Besides, I believe my skills, plus all of yours would be sufficient to protect oourselves, but we will need Soron and Blaze. If not, we may not be sufficient and be overwhelmed." SHe then looked expectantly in Soron and Blaze's direction, but also kept a weary eye on the dragon.

OOC: I am going to add two new classes in case more of you want to make other classes, which of these do you think are good? Any suggestions would help.

"So, it seems everyone is in then?" Freija said. "Wait a second where is Varai?"

"I think she went back to the farm after the battle, kupo." Arekkusu said, floating and pointing at the farm.

"Hey, about the traveling, Bisga is a port city. Near the south end are three ports. I think a Ship is scheduled to leave tonight." Apollo added, moving his hand.

Freija crossed her arms. "Well, so you guys are all in?"

The strangers that met, all promised to join up and one day, travel to Eden.

"Well then, I guess we will set sail on the boat tonight then? In the meantime, I am going to go find Varai and ask if she is willing to go with us. I won't force us, but hey, the more the merrier, and maybe some other people might join us."(Hint Hint)

The group of friends split up and went around Bisga until it was time to head towards the port. Freija and Arekkusu headed towards the farm she first met Varai. "I hope she considers joining us. She seems like the person who would be willing, but scared, just like me." She thought to herself.
Freija then arrived at the farm and walked around to the barn and saw a door was open. A girl in black was tending to the animals, what appeared to be a baby chocobo chick. "Um excuse me." Freija asked. "I have a question for you. Would you want to join us on our travelling of the world? Everyone agreed to go but you. You seem like you want to go but scared at the same time. Just like me. I am anxious to go, but I don't want to leave what I am used to. So what do you say?"


Freija seeing Varai and asking her if she would join

Ooc: I think we should have a new maic user and a melee so Defender and, what was the other one with the studying?
Loracarane then looked at Freija "So, if we do go to Eden, shouldn't we train first?I mean, I have no doubt in our abilities, but the monsters would be no competition if we trained a little. If you don't want to, we don't have to, but if you agree, I think I might be able to attract some monsters with herbs as long as we keep them away from innocent civilians." She then motioned towards her bag, "Cactuars are attracted to a few fruits I have collected, so....."

OOC: Don't forget to pick what two classes you like best to add.

Apollo, who was the only person left with Loracarane. "Well, Eden is high in the sky, I have no clue how Frei intends to go there, but I hear, the monsters are top-notch almost god-like beasts. I think we are pawns compared to their kings. It will require quite a bit of power. With just six of us, I don't think we could stand much of a chance.

(Apollo telling Loracarane about Eden's defenses)

(Credit. Actually very small, different variants are Cactrot and Gigantuar.)

He took a look at the fruits she carried in her bag. "So, we have been traveling around the Eternia Orlands. That place is filled with Cactuars, must've had quite a knack for giving those things food as a diversion. Their 10000 Needles attack will leave barely any trace you existed. Although, some people have tame Cactrots, anyway, I wouldn't mind training. How bout coming inside and getting a water or something to drink." Apollo smiled.

" Cool," Lorcarane then smiled. "If you believe the legends, didn't a group about the size of ours venture their?" Lorcarane, still smiling started to walk into the tent. "I mean if you believe the legends. She drank a glass of cool, refreshing water. She then pulled out an orange fruit that she knew wasn't poisonous. It was very juicy, and she particularly liked these. She then looked at Apollo, he was very knowledgeable of the legends. That is quite an interesting fact.

OOC: So Defender and Scholar are your picks? Okay, I was leaning on Defender and Seer, but we will see what Cynder and Spyrocon say about it.

Apollo put his glass of cider on the bar counter. "Well, the legend spoke of six children, all whose parents were gods. They had natural talent. None of us are children of gods, only children of man."

One of the guys at bar had started a fight, but this man, was more than just a bar drunk. He quickly pulled out a knife and dashed for the man who accidently knocked over his drink.

"HELP ME!" The poor man cried as he jumped behind the table.

"OH god." Apollo said, "Loracarane, help me. This man is getting angry over a spilled drink, I'd hate to see what he would do if something worse happened." Apollo drew his bow. "Hey, you! Why not pick on someone else.!" He provoked and ran outside. "C'mon out here!"

The man quickly ran outside. Loracarane did not know what to do. Apollo pulled the string back and fired a warning arrow. "Do you think killing a man over a spilled drink is worth it?"

"I am not just trying to kill him because of that. I just want him dead. He gave me a dirty look, and I just don't like him. I am a wandering person, more like an assassin, but I suppose killing you works too!" He laughed and charged at him with a knife, Apollo fired an arrow and it hit him in arm he held his knife in.

"I don't want to kill, but if you keep this up, you're definitely going to get hurt." He warned, pulling out another arrow.

(Credit, The battle with the 'assassin'.)

Yamato-Takeru was instantly summoned and the man was blinded with a flash of light. Lorcarane then burned him with her fire spell, and hit him in the back of the head with her quarterstaff knocking him out. "Haha, you will never kill Apollo, he has fighting skills and some friends with them too." She then walked over to Apollo. "He's a bit strange isn't he? Well hopefully he doen't bother us again. He probably won't after that would he?"

Apollo nodded and smiled at Loracarane's skill in battle. "Well, nice job. I doubt it, but let's get-"

The body of the man faded away leaving nothing but a tiny little gem. Apollo picked it up. "Is this some sort of transfiguration gem? Maybe this guy was just a puppet or something. Let's see if we can find out what this thing is."

Arekkusu was busy playing around with the baby chocobo chick. "Kupo, kupo! You're sooo cute, kupo." He said playing a game with.

Lorcarane then said, "Y-You weren't to bad either. Maybe Freija will know something about it." Stuttering because she was realizing that her earlier thoughts about his smarts may be becoming an attraction. She shouldn't be attracted to a fellow adventurer. To risky. But, he was handsome, and smart, and he sure could handle a bow. That's always a plus. "So you think the guy wasn't real? That is creepy and cool at the same time. Maybe Yamato- takeru will react to it for some reason. And I SO told you he wouldnt mess with us." she joked

Ooc: I am kinda relying on Crescent for the reaction

Ooc: Interesting explanation, but are we allowed to do that?

Lorcarane sat next to Apollo, then asked Freija if she believes that Soron is correct. SHe looked at the crystal before asking Apollo if he thinks that is a possibility as well. "Interesting idea Soron. If your idea is correct, then we could clone ourselves tons of times, then even the godlike monsters of Eden couldn't defeat us. Well, probably. Maybe." SHe observed after taking a bite out of her fruit. "Anybody want to try some? Apollo? Freija? Arekkusu?"

OOC: Freija is at the barn with Varai and Arekkusu, so she isn't around. And, yes, nice going convexity, I like where it's going. Convexity, what of those 4 classes do you like? your 2 picks.

Apollo looked at the crystal. "So Soron, you said these crystals require a sacrifice to make a clone? It seems redundant, but why would someone do this?" He held the crystal, its ominous glow made him a bit frightened of what the gem's real potential was.

Arekkusu flew down to see Apollo as Freija and Varai were having a private conversation about their adventurous personalities and strong will to go to Eden. "Kupo, what's that?" He asked pointing at the glowing gem.

"Soron says it is a cloning gem. A mad man from the bar threatened to kill someone, and Loracarane summoned her Elemental to destroy it. It was quite a sight, but, damn... I forgot to go check on that man in the bar who was attacked. I will go check on him." He quickly ran back into the bar to check on the man.

Arekkusu floated around the gem Soron was holding. "It looks creepy, that black hue. What do you suppose we do with it, kupo?"

"I don't know if I should come. I can't just leave this little guy. His mom is nowhere to be found, and Mr.Peckle can't take care of him. I have to be here to make sure he is well fed." Varai said, worrying about the little chick. "I also don't know if I could just leave the farm. I grew up here. It's been my home for... 7 years. It'd be hard to just leave all of the sudden" Varai said sadly. "I also couldn't leave my boss. She's been like a mother to me. When I lost my parents and was alone, she was there." Varai said, wiping a small tear. She thought for a while. "I suppose I'll come. Even if I get scared, I know I can always come back here. Right?" Varai asks, picking up the small chick and gently petting it.
