Cheryl Lusby


Appearance | Standing at 1.6 metres, Cheryl's default expression is one of intense disinterest. Her auburn hair curls around her neck in a bobcut, with a side bang that has an irritating tendency to fall into her left eye. Nowadays, it's held back by two simple bobby pins. Steel-knuckled fingerless gloves adorn her hands and a utility belt tucked under her jacket holds her meagre possessions - a knife, money, and her mana shards. The front pockets on her utility jacket are where she keeps odds and ends. Heels? Nah. She's lovin' her steel-toed combat boots.
Age | 23
Gender | Female
Orientation | Heterosexual
Occupation | Bounty hunter

Jack


Human

Male

30 years

1.8 meters (6'2")

Origin: Earth, 21st century.

Occupation: Career Criminal.

Jack’s a tad odd, personality-wise, while his appearance is more than acceptable by 21st century society standards. Far too appealing for his own taste. His hair, dark brown with natural rustic highlights, is on the short side, but long enough to get a mean grip on with your fist if it ever came to that. His translucent blue eyes hold a natural slightly narrowed stare, while his cheekbones, like the rest of his features, are strong, solid, but not sharp at all. To Jack, his good looks are a curse, not a blessing. One reason for this is that he doesn’t like drawing attention to himself, which is reflected in the way he maintains his appearance, such as his tendency to wear clothing on the dark and dull side. Bright clothing is one of the many things he detests, another is being looked at, by anyone, and another is the grubby feeling of having lengthy facial hair - and yet he is never actually clean-shaven. Overall, he prefers an unkempt look, which, on account of his regrettable good looks, results in a rugged yet approachable appearance, an appearance defected by a subtle and undefined shiftiness in his demeanour.

Odd: Differing in nature from what is ordinary. The literal meaning of the word is the best way to generalise Jack’s personality, his views, his likes, his distastes and interests. And it’s not that the influences in life growing up made him that way. He was always like that. Even school, a place where most kids take their first big dose of social interaction, was for Jack a place of solitude and reflection. He spent those days in the least conspicuous spots possible; the darkest corners during class, the least observed places on the playground during lunch, most of such times spent thinking on how much he hated it there, how idiotic and unappealing the rest of the student body and their activities were, how to escape that place in the most efficient way possible, and all the while plotting the best way to kill his stepdad. It didn’t take too long to accomplish the latter two in one effort - two birds with one stone, so to speak - when at the age of ten he did kill his stepdad, resulting in being sent to juvenile detention until he was eighteen. There were those that suggested, despite being murder, that he shouldn’t have been sentenced to spend the remainder of his childhood incarcerated, but apparently the particularly heinous and abundantly clear premeditated nature of the act called for a more severe penalty than what was deemed normal for a pre-adolescent.

Life in juvenile detention was good for Jack, it taught him a lot, like how to become a career criminal. He came out knowing exactly what he wanted to do with his life, and had the connections to make it happen. The first two years of freedom were spent doing jobs for a guy nicknamed Johnny Big, real name unknown, the head of the largest organised crime family in the city of Sydney. Johnny Big also had a sister by the name Jezibel Small - also not her real name - who took an automatic shining to Jack and had his kid within the year of his release. Jezibel named the kid Hannah and took some time out from the life of crime to raise the girl in a more civilised manner than the underground world of crime could provide, only to be killed during a home invasion when Hannah was two years old. It was only then, when Jezibel was killed, that Jack learned that Hannah was actually his own daughter. He wasn’t entirely happy about it, and neither was Johnny Big, who nevertheless let Jack live because, in his own words: “Even though you knocked up my only sister, you’ve always been my best bastard. So I’m letting you go. You’re out. I won’t support you anymore. But you will take the kid. You will raise her. And you will raise her to be the best damn woman this world has seen – but let it be known, if she ever comes to harm while under your care I will fuck you up so bad you won’t ever again remember your own name.”

With Johnny Big’s blessings, Jack was on his own and in a house of his own, in the suburbs, with all expenses paid, and with a daughter whom he quickly grew to love. All of this was not to suggest that Johnny Big forbade Jack from ever taking part in that line of work again. To the contrary, actually. Johnny knew Jack was going to need an income, but Johnny also knew that Jack could do without the constraints of being tied in with the family. He needed freedom, to do things the way he wanted, needed, in order to at the same time raise Hannah the best he could. This to Jack meant the only thing it could mean: freelance crime. And thanks to Johnny and his connection, not to mention Johnny’s willingness to cooperate for the sake of his niece, Jack once again had all he needed to make it happen.

Within a few short years, Jack became the most renowned and reliable freelance mercenary known to the underground, and life was simple for him. He dated no women, and rarely felt the need to, outside of an occasional one night stand for the sake of his primal urges. He had no close friends, outside of the few people he knew from his life of crime, so he never really had many visitors. He kept to himself, as always, and at the times he was out working he hired a babysitter for Hannah. Surprisingly enough, he found being a father rather easy, but he wasn’t at all sure his definition of parenting was all that standard. But then again, he didn’t really care about ordinary standards.

When Hannah was three or four, Jack started home schooling her, occasionally bringing in a tutor for the things he wasn’t really up on, which, as it turned out, was more often than he had expected. But overall, Hannah was healthy, very smart, being raised so well that Johnny Big would swell with pride when he dropped by to visit once a month like clockwork. More or less.

Less common than many other dragon types, and considered extinct for a short period post The Age of Resilience, Arist are arguably the most feared and revered of all dragons, renowned for their esteemed intelligence, exceptional magical abilities and physical prowess.

With brown locks that end mid-back, she's usually seen in an orange short-sleeved shirt, brown shorts and most notably, dark red gloves. More recently, she's seen with grey inner sleeves extending out from her shirt on her arms. Depending on where she is and the situation, she may also be seen with crimson red wings ending in jet black tips.

Haila
[pronounced: hi-la (la like in "laugh")]

Appearance: Being a fairly young dragon, Haila's height stretches up to an average three metres. Most floret wyverns possess flowerlike manes and tails and Haila's no different, with her mane alternating in stripes of black and gold, and flecks of gold in her tail. As a wyvern, Haila has wings in place of forelegs; they're a brilliant spread of gold, bronze and black, with tail ends that make them resemble a butterfly's wings. Her scales are a pale grey and her eyes a deep turquoise, often taken up by a soft, curious expression. Her build is lithe - certainly not built for combat - and her gentle, dance-like movements easily portray her as a non-threat. This, of course, is not always a good thing.
Species: Floret wyvern. An elegant breed known for their calming presences and shared wisdom.
Age: The dragon equivalent of late teens.
Gender: Female
Occupation: Wild dragon in a Khusa-Floret wyvern alpine community.

~~The Two Clans of Nihilo~~


Nobody really knows exactly how long ago the first humans settled in Nihilo. What is known is that the first settlers were actually two tribes, The Hokumtapaya and The À La Stan. It is believed that the tribes were first nomadic allies who settled together in Nihilo because of the abundant resources and diversities it offered. What was perhaps centuries later, the two tribes became enemies and went to war with each other. It was after this, a war that lasted close to two centuries, that both tribes began documenting more detailed accounts of their steps through history. These writings are now referred to as Ancient Doctrine.

Though the first war had ended without a victor, the tension between Hokumtapaya and À la Stan persisted. Ancient Doctrine from both sides agree on what is said to be the only thing they do agree on, that this enduring conflict originally stems from their inability to agree on specific matters relating to the purities and superiority of magic types, both in Humans and Dragons. Over the centuries, however, their differing points of view branched out into progressive compilations of facts and perspectives concerning many various aspects of life, and eventually became two very distinct lines of Nihiloan knowledge and Philosophy, both of which are still studied and even taught in schools to this day.

More recently, the Hokumtapaya and À la Stan are often referred to as The Two Clans of Nihilo, and their teachings are referred to respectively as either Hokumtapaya or À la Stan Philosophy, and Hokumtapaya or À la Stan Knowledge.

Although the genealogy of the Hokumtapaya and À la Stan clans have been scattered and diluted over the many centuries of generations to become what the population of Nihilo is today, there remains a myth that a pure and untainted lineage of both tribes still exist as neighbouring communities, now residing in seclusion and at peace with each other somewhere in a magically hidden domain upon the highlands of Nihilo.
