Dungeon Crawling Adventure

At the moment, um... We can get moving on as soon as everyone's introduced themselves. I think the best course of action is to roll things back a little. @SilverDawn needs to have their character introduce herself, and @Shisa should probably make it a little clearer she's joining up.

@VitaVitaAR

Well, due to something coming up, I won't be here for the next week. I'll have to skip out for the first (and maybe second, if you go quickly) dungeons.

I'm sorry.

Dungeon Crawling Adventure

So, what I'm pretty sure we need is Tanya to explain the mission, then we do all the self-introduction-thing posts, then we can get on with the quest.

Dungeon Crawling Adventure

...@SilverDawn hasn't actually gotten over to the group...

@VitaVitaAR

I did write that she had walked on over.

Probably didn't make it too clear because I wrote it right before I slept.

Dungeon Crawling Adventure

Liliane had noticed that her yell hadn't gone unheard. The rather small paladin had called her (and possibly a few others) over. Liliane took one step forward and heard another shout by one of the tiny paladin's companion. The second yell was unexpected. "Aye?" Liliane yelled back to him, wondering why he knew that she was a treasure hunter.

Liliane, with tree nuts in hand, walked over to the mini-paladin's table. Liliane then noticed that the small competition between the soldier lady and man who looked like an average warrior had spiralled into someone's arm being gnarled. Luckily, the arm appeared to be tended to by a foreign person.

Liliane stood there, amazed that so many events could happen at a bar in less than 8 minutes.

I mean, no matter what Vita says, it'll be bad for her.

If she discloses the problems (and if they're caused by a few people), then she is effectively not Fonz-level cool by calling out someone where everyone can see.

If she doesn't disclose what happened, then the person who caused the problem (if there was any) won't be shamed in public, but you want to know exactly who (or what) caused the problems.

What if what caused the problems were extremely personal?

I'd say that you aren't being respectful to another person by pestering them even when they said they wouldn't disclose what happen.

Dungeon Crawling Adventure

Liliane had been sitting alone at one of the tables for many hours. Apparently, finding a group of people to go adventuring with was difficult (especially since Liliane never asked anyone). While she didn't drink a single drop of alcohol, she had eaten multiple saucers of various tree nuts. She silently moped to herself.

Though, that moping quickly ended once a not-shady woman aggressively declared that all those who wanted to go into the Prison-Castle would go with her. Liliane had wanted to go to the Prison-Castle for the longest time (in fact, she wanted to go to almost every single not fully unexplored dungeon in Velt), but she never could because the rumored giant-rats were her perfect counter (just like almost every kind of enemy in a dungeon).

Liliane deposited the nuts from the saucer into her hand and stood up. "I'll join you in your adventure!" Liliane yelled out loud. After yelling, Liliane had realized that her table was rather a ways off from the Paladin and the rowdy group of people already near her.

So, they're trying to turn into a Guy and their name is Fieri...

"Is that treasure I hear?"

---

Name:
Liliane Gage

Age:
22

Gender:
Female

Race:
Human

Class:
Treasure Hunter

Appearance:
Liliane stands at about 5'7", and weighs around 125 pounds.

Personality:
Liliane is a happy-go-lucky treasure hunter. She tends to have a positive outlook in most situations and constantly thinks that the pay dirt is ahead. Because of this, she gets disappointed rather frequently (mostly whenever there are no ancient artifacts). She doesn't really have a huge desire to become the head of her family, though. She just wants the feeling of being better than her siblings.

Backstory

Liliane was born to 7th generation of the Gage family, a group of famous treasure hunters who renounced their last name and took upon the last name of Gage. Because of this, Liliane's future was engrained into her. She would become a treasure hunter, just like all 18 others in the family.

Her parents were the best of the treasure hunters. They would always leave and come back with the oldest artifacts and the most money. Unfortunately, they weren't the lenient teachers. 8 hours a day of practical training. 8 hours of studying traps and monsters. Free time? Study while doing practical training. Sleep time? Wake up in 7 hours to train more. It was a living hell.

Even though she was the most trained out of all of her siblings, she was also the weakest. She had no talent, except for her memory (which isn't the best, but when you study the same things for 15 years, it gets ingrained fairly well). Her siblings would constantly tease her and make her feel bad. That just drove her, though. She wanted to be better than them. She wanted to finally say that she was better. She was convinced she would find the best treasure because of her strict training.

Despite this, Liliane still wanted to be a treasure hunter (just like her 5 sibs). On the day all of them turned 20, they were given some heirlooms to aid them on the journey they would embark on.

Brother Orwell had gotten a giant claymore and extremely durable plate armour to represent his unyielding tenacity in dungeons.

Brother Cain had gotten a priceless bow and hundreds of arrows to represent his tendency of reaching perfection.

Sister Ana had gotten a magical staff and a magical tome to represent her being the only one who was actually taught magic.

Sister Annette had gotten an absurd amount of gold to hire mercenaries to represent her intelligence in strategy.

Brother Abel had gotten many animal companions to represent his kinship with animals while traversing the unknown.

Liliane had gotten an old knife and useless necklace to represent her... something?

They were all given 5 years to find the greatest single treasure that they could to determine who would be the next leader of the Gage family.

Two years later, Liliane had found nothing. All the dungeons were either too hard to clear by herself, or were already looted. She decided to join a party of adventurers to delve into the dankest of dungeons.

Equipment:
Gage Family's Ol' Stabbing 'n Slicin' Knife
An old heirloom passed down by the Gage family. It has the power of one regular dagger, but it manages to keep its edge no matter what a Gage puts it through. It's almost comically difficult to destroy the knife.

Cloth Clothes
Clothes made out of cloth. Really good in the summer. Terrible in the winter.

Leather Gloves and Boots (with Ivory Plating)
Gloves and boots made out of, well, leather. High quality ivory was plated onto at a later date.

Strange Necklace
Another heirloom from the Gage family. Probably some part of a grand scheme about giant spiders and a holy spear. No one from the Gage family cares about that, though. It looks pretty, so they keep it.

Liliane's Pouch of Holding
A pouch made from thick leather. Contains the small gemstones that Liliane palms on her escapades.

Abilities:
Liliane as a combatant isn't very useful. Really, her only combat style is sneaking up on something and stabbing it in the back. What she does have is a great knowledge of monsters and traps, making her an excellent support while traversing the dungeon. Because of her intense training, she is usually the first one to spot traps and disarm them for the rest of the party. She is also quite agile.

Going to leave this here.

<Snipped quote by SilverDawn>

Is there a reason why? O.o

@TwilightDragon

I didn't really like how she turned out, now that I had a long while to think about it.

It seems I managed to out-edge myself.

Jiang 2.0

---

"I guess I'd have to."

---

Username:
SilverDawn

Name:
"Jiang"

Age:
28

Gender:
Female

Crystal Color:
The colour of Jiang's crystal is a murky white.

Allegiance:
House Gryphes

Rank:
N/A, acts as the resident doctor.

Skills:
Surgery and scaring people.

She doesn't have many talents, but she's good at what she does.

Abilities:
Jiang can create and control the cold. While this ability is useful, she can't create ice unless she has water with her. Generally, her main form of attack is creating a -15°C field around her. It's not a very useful magic, especially when it's already -15°C out.

Jiang can also force an object into absolute zero. Generally, it takes 10 minutes to force an object into absolute zero. While in absolute zero, an object will be unaffected by temperature and will not exude any kind of cold air or heat. It would be essentially locked in time if it happens. Living things can not be sent to absolute zero because they constantly release heat.

Weapons:
Jiang rarely uses weapons, as she rarely will fight.

Appearance:
Jiang stands at ~5'6" (168cm) and weighs ~128 pounds (~58 kilograms)

Personality:
Jiang is a frightening person to be around for both houses. She constantly has a small grin. It's unsettling for other people because of the massive scars she has all over her body. When asked about said scars, Jiang would always reply with "experimenting".

Jiang speaks with a very casual tone to everyone, except for perhaps the boss. She has no real qualms about killing people. Even if she's slicing someone to death, her grin never changes. According to Jiang, she doesn't realize if she's grinning or not. It just ends up being natural to her.

Jiang has a deep fascination with corpses and organs, so she tends to clean up all of the dead bodies. She also brings in a lot of money, so her disturbing presence is somewhat welcomed.

History:
Jiang was born into a fairly well-off family in China. As a child, she had a rather unhealthy obsession with what was on the inside of things. First, it started with crushing insects and looking at what spilled out. Later on, it turned into small animals.

Her parents never really noticed that something was wrong with her. They never found out about the animals, as Jiang hid them fairly well.

When Jiang was 22, she had entered med school. She was filled with pleasure from learning about the innards of humans. In her 3 years of studying, she learned all she needed to about the human body and surgeries. She opened a small clinic in a seedy part of town, and began to operate on whoever would come in.

Of course, people would die while they were getting operated on because of a certain lack of anesthetics and health-standards. When that would happen, Jiang would operate on them to take and sell their organs.

A year had passed and Jiang had a booming business. Triad members would enter with broken bones and leave healthily. It all ended when Jiang harvested the organs of a certain big Triad leader while he was still alive.

The Triad members came after Jiang relentlessly. They destroyed her shop, her parent's businesses, everything. Jiang, after losing everything, decided to run. All she took was a few disinfectants and her tools.

She made herself a fake identity and hid inside of a fishing boat. The fishing boat left and, after a few days, arrived at a dock in Japan. Jiang snuck out of the boat and into the cities. Something was different about Jiang, though. She had wounds covering her entire body. She entered the boat perfectly fine, and left with large wounds.

Jiang wandered around for a day or so. She had odd stares from strangers, but didn't particularly care. While wandering, she had found someone with seven gunshot wounds to his torso. Jiang, knowing he was still alive, took him into a deserted building, and began to operate.

The man was (surprisingly) okay after that. He took her to the house boss, and pleaded that Jiang was what they needed. A (somewhat) good surgeon who could help them. In all honesty, Jiang wanted to take the man's organs, but she didn't have anywhere to put it.

The man invited Jiang to join their "family". Without anywhere to go, Jiang said yes. They gave her a small crystal and taught her what they could about magic. Jiang trained her magic, but not in a combat way. She trained her magic in a way that could help her surgeries.

After a few more years, Jiang became a dedicated surgeon to House Gryphen. She became a valuable addition to their team, despite the entire organ stealing thing.
