@Dead Cruiser and @Rune_Alchemist Humans in this rp are not naturally attuned to magic. There's magic all over the world that some creatures can tap into but human's can't unless helped by enchanted artifacts or dragons.
The Listeners are a different thing as they're able to see the flow of magic, but this connection is weak that the only thing they can do with it is communicate with dragons. As their relationship with their dragon grows, so does their connection to magic. The magic they learn to tap into relates to the magic of their dragon, but isn't limited to elemental magic.
Since we're starting just after the Leviathans attack and after they first meet their dragon, none of the Listeners can use magic yet. Maybe rudimentary sorts, but nothing really magical.
"Good to meet you as well, what was your name?" Yu-Pha heard as he asked. "Yu-Pha." she replied.
Just as she did so, she heard the other woman saying, walking towards her. "Well, time to face death?"
"No, it's time to fight for our lives. We are alone, unarmed and we don't know where we are. Be intelligent, be cunning, be smart. Its the only advice i can give you. Strength alone wont save you. Don't count with kindness, mercy or good intentions. If we had escaped from the cage, we could even have a chance to flee, but we were released. This is one thing I'm familiar with: if we are released we fight or we die. There is no hope of escaping." Yu-Pha's voice was serious, devoid of any emotion, but her eyes were truly frightening. Weren't the eyes of a normal person... You couldn't say for certain why, but you could feel that there was something off with that woman.
When Yu-Pha finished saying that, she got out of the basement, walking very carefully, paying attention to not make any sound and observing everything. She didn't know where she was going, but she was looking for the exit.
Strangely enough, things were pretty silent until now. No fighters trying to kill her, no one trying to shoot her... It was strange... But she had no time to think about it. The only thing she was certain was that she was released from her cage, and that is something that she was very familiar with. When she was released from her cage, she fought, killed her opponent or died, and if she was lucky, she lived to see another day. Seeing as there were no opponents to her to fight raised many questions. Why she was released in the first place? Surely there is a reason, but what is this reason?
"A game huh?" She thought to herself. It was a wicked game, but it surely would give her the opportunity to at least save one of them, or at least give them a quick and painless death. Torturing them was too... barbaric... If she wanted food, she would hunt. It was simple. But there is no reason to torture someone. Its not like you are hungry, you are just torturing... It was cruel. "I don't know... Hunting is fine, i mean... when you are hungry you hunt and eat. Simple as that. But torturing is just... mindless violence, cruelty." she said to Nixon.
"Anyways, letting this aside, good to know that the Hotel hasn't changed. I like this place, it is kinda cozy, you know?" she said, following him.
"Anyway, so Boss said you wanted meat, then a...wounded human? I mean, I could do two birds with one stone I guess. Not too hard to slice off an arm," Just as he said that, she let out an surprised exclamation.
"No, no!! Its not what i meant... You don't need to HURT a human for me... If there is a wounded human, that someone tortured and left to die, bring them to me. I mean, some like to torture them and don't even have the decency of killing them and eating. Whats the purpose of torturing at all its simpl..." she started to talk, clearly annoyed by the behavior some supernatural creatures displayed, but suddenly stopped talking.
"I'm sorry... I kinda overreacted... I just feel that there is no reason to torture a human. A tortured human isn't even fit to eat... they have no taste... And its simply cruel... its against the natural law..." she said, blushing a little.
"Alright, here's access to the meats, from full to chopped, and I think some might still be living," "Then we can get you the wounded human."
The following scene was rather terrifying. Kamilah's beautiful and delicate appearance only made it even more terrifying. As soon as she saw the meat, she moved towards a goat that was still alive on the corner. In the blink of an eye, she coiled around the goat. The moment she did, Nixon could hear the loud cracking noises of the goat's bones breaking, followed by a vicious bite to the jugular. The goat contorted itself, trembling and spasming uncontrollably before falling dead. Everything happened in seconds, it was almost too fast to react. With the creature already dead, Kamilah used her sharp teeth to tear the goat's throat, eating its flesh voraciously. A few minutes later, the only thing left was bones. It was terrifying to see that happening in such a short time, but at the same time, Kamilah's precise and graceful movements were hypnotizing, she knew exactly where to cut, which tendons to cut to find the best meat.
Cleaning her hands and mouth, she looked to Nixon, blushing heavily. "Sorry for this... I was really, really hungry." she said, with an awkward smile. "Now, about the humans..." she said, looking to Nixon, putting a finger over her mouth. "I'll be our secret ok? Don't let others know about this."
Full Name: Lila Suda, Nickname/Alias: The Blade Dancer, "Rings" to those close to her. Age: 22 Gender: Female Sexuality: Heterossexual Country: Wildeshore Occupation: Dancer / Hunter Appearance: Platinum hair, skin as white as the Wildshore's sands. Standing at 1,85m, Lila is a tall woman. Long, strong legs and a very flexible slender body that hides an impressive strength for a woman, Lila sure is a box full of surprises. Unlike the common long hair many woman prefer to use, Lila opted for cutting it shorter than usual. Coupled with the unusual color, it sure attracts a lot of attention.
Casually, she wears a black elegant dress made entirely of silk. The material makes it strong and flexible, letting her move and dance freely. While hunting or in battle situations, she wears a lightweight leather armor, reinforced with steel on some parts.
Background: Born out of an impossible union, probably fruit of one single night of passion, Lila's parents are extremely different from each other. Both in status and way of life. Her mother was a dancer, just like her. A free spirit who loved to travel, talk, have fun and dance. She liked to say that her husband was the wind, that she went wherever it took her. Her father, on other hand, was a very wealthy and important nobleman. Most part of the money that passed through Wildeshore, passed by his hands. Owner of a big part of the commerce there, he was a beautiful man, but was completely the opposite of Lila's mother. He cared too much about material possessions, including money. Hated changes and was an extremely traditional man, with a deep love for military and martial arts.
Due to being extremely traditional, her father simply couldn't ignore the fact that he had a child. Even If the mother was only a dancer. Of course, he was already married. Lila was the fruit of an affair. Luckily, he chose to give both her and her mother a house and a large sum of money, promising to take care of them. Maybe he was trying to take responsibility for his mistakes? Or perhaps he was only trying to hide his shame. Lila was raised between the nobles, in the high society, but had the same free spirit as her mother and coincidentally, the same love for dancing, but at the same time, was deeply fascinated by martial arts, just as her father. Thanks to this union of two completely opposite extremes, Lila ended up fusing her two passions. A weapon specially made for her, a Ring Blade, was gifted to her by her father. It was just like the weapon was an extension of her body. Graceful and swift circular movements, deadly precision and a dancer's footwork and flexibility created an unique martial art. As the little Lila grown up, she became an enchanting woman. Beautiful and desired, feared and admired by many. Her name quickly became known thorough Wildeshire, enough to other nobles overlook the fact that she was fruit of an affair and with that came many different aliases: The Blade Dancer, Rings & etc.
Her meeting with the dragon "Jörmungandr" was very... unorthodox. One day, while she was dancing and performing in a party near the beach, having fun as the torches illuminated the night, the moonlight reflected on her ring blade (which her friends insisted for her to use the real weapon instead of only a hoop in her dance), it was beautiful and deadly, the smile, the pure joy in her face while she danced was hypnotizing. Lets say that her friends weren't the only ones watching...
From the dark sea, a big dragon came, getting out of the depths of the sea. Naturally, everyone nearby was startled, but Lila hadn't perceived the creature, continuing dancing. When she saw it, the dragon had laid his head on the sand, and was quietly staring at her, like it was hypnotized. In a moment of bravery, or foolishness, Lila extended her hand, touching the creature's nose. That moment, under the moonlight, a strong relationship, and strong feelings were forged between the two.
Strengths:
》 Dal Niente, Al Niente – Lila is capable of moving very fast around the battlefield, being able of impressive speeds in order to eliminate specific targets. With her mobility, positioning means nothing, as she can use her speed and dance movements to confound her enemies, making them unable to predict where she will go or from where she will attack.
》 Noble Aura – Lila's is a woman who passes an aura of nobility and purity. Other people tend to trust her easily and find it very difficult to think anything wrong of her.
》 Fortissimo – Using her entire body's weight and mass to build her weapon's momentum, it can deal very devastating attacks without compromising her agility. Her enemies often get surprised by the force behind her agile and fast attacks.
》 Dancer's Agility – Lila's graceful movements hide powerful and flexible muscles which make her capable of performing very impressive acrobatic moves and an uncanny agility and flexibility.
Weaknesses:
》 Innocence - Lila is an innocent girl and kind girl. She trusts others too easily.
》 Weight Restriction - Obviously, Lila cant carry too much weight with her, as it will affect her mobility and fighting ability.
》 Light Armor - Lila wears only very light armor in order to keep mobile. She cannot wear anything heavy, and its unable to wield a shield or any kind of off-hand weapon when using her weapon (excluding her throwing rings.)
Equipment:
》
A very unique weapon that resembles the decorated hoops she uses in some of her dances, it uses beautiful and very complex circular movements, using the dancer's own body to give the weapon more momentum, its a very unpredictable weapon, and can be very tricky to defend. On the other hand, the nature of this weapon is so dangerous that it could literally mean dismemberment or death if used by those who dont have enough skill.
》 Throwing Chakrams: Small, razor sharp bladed rings she can throw to hit her opponents.
》 Black dress and Light armor
Jörmungandr, The Midgard Serpent
ps: ignore limbs
Full Name: Jörmungandr, The Midgard Serpent Age: Estimated 150 Years Gender: Male Race: Amphitheres Appearance:
Background: Jörmungandr was one of the biggest and most ferocious Amphitheres on the sea, differently from other amphitheres, he was very aggressive and territorial, sometimes sinking ships only because they passed nearby him. Nobody knew why he was so different from the other dragons of the same species, perhaps because he was still a young dragon? Nobody knew for certain. His characteristic horn was the first thing the ones unlucky enough to cross his path would see, and very often, the last one.
Unlike other dragons, he didn't liked humans. Never had assumed a human form before, nor he wished to. Some say he inherited the old dragons' pride. He thought that humans were inferior and worthless, that was until the day he fell in love for a human himself. For the first time in 100 years, he let a human touch him, for the first time in his life, he assumed a human form. He changed completely after that day. Even becoming rather curious about humans. What was a ferocious dragon that destroyed everything he wanted, now was much more tame and well mannered. His interaction with that human made him rethink what he thought about the human race, making a growing curiosity rise within him. Strengths:
》 Natural Hunter - Fast, stealthy and with an extremely powerful bite, he is a natural and very dangerous hunter, both in dragon and human form. 》 Bladed Horn - His horn is razor sharp, and can be used as a blade by him. 》 Roar of the Ancients - An earsplitting, terrifying roar which can disrupt arcane arts and weaken arcane attacks directed to him. 》 Camouflage - As an Amphithere, he is able to camouflage himself with the surroundings.
Weaknesses:
》 Extremely possessive about Lila. He will put her safety as a priority no matter what. 》 Berserk - If Lila gets too hurt or if she is kidnapped, he will enter a berserk state. 》 Dark Past - Due to his blood drenched past, he feels guilty and feels like he should atone for his actions. As such, he will try to protect innocent humans if he sees them in danger. 》 Righteous - Will be compelled to help others who are in need, even if they are humans.
