[color=FFDDF4][i]“H-hey!”[/i][/color] Yuudai declared, inadvertently springing forward as Rihi violated the petting principal. [color=FFDDF4]“Did I not just say I would claim heads for touching me!? ...Even if you made a salient point regarding height. [b]ALSO EMPEROR YUUDAI![/b] No cutesy insistence on the diminutive Yuu unless I approve!”[/color] With a distinctive pout on her face the elf girl began stomping on the ground before flailing her finger at the green-haired dwarf. This alongside having to explain the insistence on Emperor, instead of Empress. Perhaps adopting that creed instead would influence the masses more? No, such thoughts were unacceptable. Yuudai was [b]The Emperor[/b]. Not the Empress. 

However as these thoughts flew around in her mind, Yuudai realized that the rodent had made their mark and insisted that they were doing the bidding of the Emperor instead of trying to steal the best things. Yuudai smirked as she dramatically placed one hand on her hip and cupped the other around her mouth, [color=FFDDF4]“Good! You are improving, I thank you for the service!”[/color]

Of course eventually the Emperor Yuudai followed to the training room to obtain gear. To train and to practice and establish dominance was the order of the day, Yuudai was to lead on the front lines and establish why they were the Emperor. However, there was a distinctive thing that had to be taken into consideration before getting gear. 

Finding things that fit this body. 

She looked annoyingly down at herself as she began to dig through the selection of armor and weaponry. [color=FFDDF4][i]So this, this is the body, I have to work with.[/i][/color]

Obviously the first thing to be claimed was a great sword, none of the plate breast-plates seemed quite right, so she settled with a brigandine – a canvas torso piece with rivets of metal and added it to a pile. This was followed by metal boots, and pauldrons, some canvas gloves, a tabard and well this was a surprise…

...Someone had left, a circlet. Well it was more of a head-band, but nevertheless it made Yuudai smile. Yuudai took the head-piece, and carefully eyed the rose on it for a moment before judging it. The rose was the thorny and one of the deadliest and elegant plants of nature so its presence was acceptable. 

Dressing as a standard knight did not suit the Emperor, but this was surely enough to be distinctive. Scooping up the pile, Yuudai switched out of her attire from the old world – placing the remnants in her small bags and switched into the gear of the adventurer. 

Hauling the sword over her shoulder, Yuudai strode back into the room proper with a smug grin upon her face. Spinning on her heels she turned to face one of the straw dummies as she burst into theatrics as she swung her great-sword up and held it aloft.

[color=FFDDF4]“In the ages past”[/color]
[color=FFDDF4]“Many things could not last”[/color]
[color=FFDDF4]“Now here this you souls amassed!”[/color]
[color=FFDDF4]“Witness and bow before the Emperor’s Creed!”[/color]
[color=FFDDF4]“To honor and serve none above me!”[/color]
[color=FFDDF4]“If you fail this duty...”[/color]

Yuudai could feel the blow growing in strength as the monologue was being delivered; with a diagonal slash downwards, the straw dummy could feel the hate present as after all this was the <Vengeful Slash of the Forgotten Squire> coming down against its non-sentient flesh of straw, cleaving it entwain. Pressing her heels together she spun around, the head-band keeping the hair from entering her face for once, Yuudai peered around. 

[color=FFDDF4][i]”Any questions?”[/i][/color]
