I should do my job more and actually moderate here, but I do agree with Lunar. While it's not too far fetched to assume that Avery may be some sort of spellcaster, IDing him exactly as a summoner is pretty spot on for someone you just met. Not to mention how exactly he got inside the house since looking at your last post, since it seems to imply that none of the doors are locked. At all. Which is pretty odd for a big fancy house who would no doubt be the target of thieves and such, and a locked door would be a pretty good deterrent for the unskillful ones. Nothing about your character implies he would have the skills of a lockpicker either, since it seems his only skills from his CS are Yang magic, sword play, and appraisal. And I don't like the excuse of "He has a mysterious past" to justify new skills when you need them.

@Lunarlors34 Alright Zin's jumping out the window and hugging Vesta's posterior, and maybe give Vesta a marshmallow hell if she's fast enough. Oh and now you enacted the life debt with Zin. She will now follow you into any fight and tear them apart under Vesta's orders.

So was Zin actually suffering from shock?

@Lunarlors34

Also, i guess Dante would be staying at Vesta's if not really nearby to keep an eye on Aya to apologize for putting her in that mess.

@Lunarlors34 Naw I don't want Zin Solid Snaking her way around Vesta's home without her permission, plus I want Vesta there when she does it so Vesta's reaction can be seen as well. I think it somewhat makes more sense.

@Lucius Cypher
The summoner part is my main problem. I mean I'm pretty sure Avery is the only one who 'summons' in the entire Re Zero AU. Sure there might be other spiritual art users, and thus they can bring forth a spirit. But they're usually restricted to just one (hence why Avery also only has one contract). Avery in theory can make an unlimited amount (of course how many he can make in a day is very much limited, just talking about over the course of his life depending on how long he lives)
That was something I couldn't bother bringing up, as that was the least worrying one to me. But I agree, how the heck did he get in?
I mean the Celestia's are elitist douchebags. They're not going to just leave the front door open for anyone and their grandpa to walk on in, there would be magical traps, runes, guards, guard dogs, possibly a dragon or two. You know the usual fantasy security systems.

Also to be fair to his skillset, you forgot to mention at least a good memory to remember information.

Also the fact that Vesta's mother has no idea who Zin is and could possibly kill her? (Or at least try)
@demonspade64
Okie dokie. Then we can all dog pile on Rachild! Teach him not to casually break and enter into a mansion of super powerful mages with a small private army at their disposal XD

@Lunarlors34 Or the fact that Zin could accidently sneeze in the library and probably burn it down, or accidently light Vesta's mother on fire as well.

....How does he know Avery is a summoner by looking at him?
There isn't really a thing known as summoners in the Re Zero universe, in fact Avery is probably the only one and that's because of his divine protection. Something which no-one outside the Celestia family knows about (ok maybe the odd family friend like Maria)
There's a thing called meta-gaming. And I believe that is exactly what you are doing. Whether it be intentional or not, it kinda needs to stop please.
Meta-gaming is where your character posts with information they shouldn't have, meanwhile you may know about it but unless you can justify them knowing it then well....
Which leads me to my next thing. Perfectly reading Avery's thought pattern despite this being the first time you've met. If the above isn't meta-gaming, oh boy that is.
Wanna know why he was going for a hawk? Because he can't summon something big straight off the bat in the morning. Not because of the size of the room.

But other than that that is the weakest excuse ever XD
'I'm a trader' 'I entered the wrong building' oh god. My sides. He is going to get an ass kicking. An absolute handing of his ass on a silver platter. I mean if Avery doesn't, then the commotion they will cause will bring someone who will.
Because I view their mansion somewhat similar to the Re Zero one....out in the middle of fucking nowhere XD There are no other houses to enter nearby XD
Also finally someone from this world knows the Celestia's XD Though he is idiotic enough to break into their mansion... -_-' Eh take the good with the bad.


Lunars got a point. It was a bit aggressively put, but he's got a point nonetheless.

Diox, your character can't figure all of what he's going to do just by simply looking at Avery in this situation. The summoner thing is a hard to believe because nothing about Avery shows you would know that. And going by that, him being able to figure out what he would try to summon wouldn't be possible. Figuring out he might do some sorta magic does make sense. Why? Because everyone in Lugunica can use magic and he doesn't have weaponry. That's a logical thing to come to. Meta-gaming situations like this happen man. Metagaming happens to the best of us too. You just have to learn to use the information given to IC, alright?

As for him coming into the building, that kinda ain't fixable at this point. But, a quick note for your own writing stuff like this-you need to be more aware of when your character can jump in. Coming into the Celestia household by "sensing her" doesn't really work because Rachild(from what I know) can't sense presences. Plus, even if he could, you need to give a bit more reasoning on why he would. It also helps develop your character a bit more. "Because it's interesting" only works so much after all.

Finally, I know your trying to put Rachild as the information gatherer, but here's the thing. Going in a house that(considering he's an information gatherer), would make him think it belongs to the Celestias without a plan isn't a good idea and just seems very strange and nonsensical for an info gatherer to do. It's an OOC moment(out of character). Of course, it is your character, so you decide what he does, but in writing, stuff like that without some sort of explanation usually doesn't make good writing.

Just edit it for now so it isn't meta-gaming, alright?

EDIT: And one last thing. Tag people who you're more than likely going to talk/fight/meet with in the area. I mean this moreso for the post where Rachild broke in. You're in Vesta's house. More than likely, you'll be talking to or at least be near the presence of one of lunars characters.

@demonspade64 Naw I would say a mix of blood, walking around all day, not eating much all day, burning herself and using a lot of her magic. She was exhausted.

The only way I could see it working for him to sneak in is the use of Yang magic which would still require an explanation of how he did it. More importantly, I'm not even sure if Yang magic can really work like that unless he somehow Shamac'd all the guards.

@Spriggs27
Those would be bad as well XD
@ZekariVoblis
I didn't mean to come off as aggressive >.>
Also it wouldn't be too hard to see him as a mage. He is in the Celestia house, looks somewhat fancily dressed, therefore could be a Celestia. Therefore a mage. His staff might also be a giveaway but that's mostly for decoration and beating people over the head, also for storing Shiro (similar to the Crystal around Emilia's neck for Puck/Pack)
Also the fact everyone in Luganica can use either magic or spiritual arts (pretty much the same thing, just slight differences) is also a good thing to factor into that. All in all viewing Avery as a mage, I have no problems with.
Anyone could work it out by looking at him.
The summoner thing and reading my mind were my biggest problems as stated. It seems like quite a specific thing to narrow Avery down to, as like I've stated that I doubt there are any other 'summoners' in the Re Zero world (If anyone can prove otherwise I'm more than happy to be proven wrong. Means Avery can start a summoning club :P)
The mind reading is what kinda ticked me off the most. I know he's new, so I tried to explain it the best I could what he did was wrong and how he did it wrong. But mind reading should be pretty obvious, unless he has a mind reading ability. Which I don't think the GM's would let slide anyway.
I mean Avery's divine protection is the only reason he can 'summon' anyway.

If you don't mind, perhaps I could have Malakaus arrive too? Though he died yesterday (I'm assuming we're on a new day since Life's last post implicated it is now dawn), he'd remember meeting Vesta yesterday and try to ask her to join him on his quest to save some villages from demon beasts. And if he happens to stop a snoop too, all the better. I might even have Atisha come along since she doesn't particularly care to stay back at the castle or inn.

@Kitsune

Alternatively if you want, I could have Atisha staying at the inn and she could meet Kyojin there. I know that Life kinda said something to Kyojin in her last post, but seeing that a timeskip happened I figured that event might have passed without much further event. Up to you really.

...I forgot which one is buffs? Is it Ying? XD
Also Shamacing all the guards isn't the greatest idea against the Celestia guards. Using magic, in the presence of powerful mages, is one sure fire way to get yourself noticed. Let alone Shiro, a spirit.
Also it wouldn't be too far fetched to say the guards would've been trained to somewhat resist such a thing. They do work for a powerful mage family, so some may/may not have trained for such (not to say be totally immune, but not totally affected either. Just to make sure some ammature can't just knock them out at the least)
Unless of course he is far more powerful than I think. In which case the guards are stuffed XD (Though once again, mages would sense magic used on their turf. Let alone the magical traps and runes and whatnot placed around the perimeter)
But eh I let him getting in slide. I mean it isn't totally unbelievable he has snuck in.
Most of the Celestia's are fairly egotistical after all. 'what kind of idiot would break in?' sort of thing, be slack, etc. Also it sets up for an interesting interaction.

Hey there all you fine people. Figured I should say high before I start tossing profiles around.

While I'm here, though, is there anything in the IC that would be helpful for a possible new player to know? Had Cities are driven insane by that weird Lovecraftian knowledge in the main post? Good spots to jump in? Mary Sues to be avoided at all costs?


Hey, I'm sorry your post was ignored. I didn't say anything at the time and hoped someone else was gonna help you and at the time I was heading off to sleep since my sleep schedule is really fucking weird.

I hope that this happening didn't make you want to turn away from this rp. I may not be a co-gm. But the current one is busy I think and Life the gm isn't on so I believe we can help you out.

Sorry about that. Not sure how I missed it now that I look back.
So a somewhat late welcome :D Followed me from Phoenix Wing have ya? XD (You mightn't remember me, but I remember you). If you need any help don't be afraid to ask. I'll try my best not to miss you this time
But @Lucius Cypher Is the other co-gm so he is probably the one to talk to.

Also Spriggs, what the hell was in Zin's bed? I've gotta know XD

@Lunarlors34 I never thought I could make a blanket sentient and life like without it moving, speaking, or breathing. Either I'm really fucking bad at giving clues to alluding to object, or really fucking good at making objects life like.
