Rig kept quiet when things started getting a little more...abrasive. He didn't know how to feel about the hotshot sniper, and after a few seconds he had whiplash from the response. Spook laying into him so readily, it was almost funny. Imagine hyping yourself up as an angel of death and being told "no." in two seconds flat. The mechanic just ran his hand through his hair, somewhat uncomfortable. He didn't really have a very loud personality, and going from arguing to flirting so quickly left him more then silent. He didn't even look at Isis as she rebuttaled, in fact he almost felt sorry for her.

As they landed he had mixed feelings. The place was beautiful, for an armed outpost. High up in the trees being close to nature. In a way it reminded him of living on a farm, back when his life was more about corn and cows then it was engines and oil. He wondered how they lived here. Did the trees grow food? Did they farm up here or was it mostly provisions sent from outside? What sort of things did they primarily hunt? Do they keep Duvari pens up here or on ground level? He was too caught up in looking around and trying to see how people worked in this environment to listen properly to the gruff scarred man. He didn't seem like a very pleasant person anyways. He preferred the captain that didn't like being called captain.

As the man named Johnson had the blast shields let down, Rig's attention grew sharper. Starring out the window he saw an amazing view. It was an obvious fact that most of world doesn't look like insides of Anselmo, but if you spend most of your life surrounded by walls, such an expanse will feel alien. Then, the beam of light parted the sky. Creating a dividing line and piercing the clouds, Rig's face turned from stunned to smirking. His eyes were wide and his dimples showed. What was it? What could it be? It had to be machine run right? Nothing like that could be natural, if it was it would move or have been discovered already. What sort of tech ran that thing? What did it use as an energy force? If that beam is purely light based it must put out a ridiculous amount of heat to part the clouds like that! Could they weaponize it? A condensed form would do great against the rough hide of the leviathans. Maybe not though? It must take a lot of energy to run that thing, and the computations? The machine must be massive! Could the old world really do such things? Maybe there are schematics somewhere to be found! Rig's smile only grew as he imagined adapting such technology for his own designs. Oh how they would fall before him.

He had let his thoughts wander so much, he was only dragged out of them by Johnson barking some gruff orders, then leaving. "I bet I would of disliked that guy. Had I listened to him." Rig said aloud to no one in particular. He turned and with his vision unclouded by imagination, he saw the beautiful craft ahead. His eyes lighting up again like stars he had never worked on one these things before! Sure on some parts, but he'd never had the privileged to get inside a working one. A beautiful ghost of a world forgotten he was ecstatic to explore it's capabilities. Not too many weapons yet either, maybe he'd get to outfit it at some point?

The tingling joy in Rig's brain would soon come to an abrupt end, as the sounds of panic mixed with massive foot prints galloping nearer stole his gaze. A large Duvari came bounding into Isis' arms, taking her to the floor, the two seemed ecstatic to see each other. Rig found himself behind the nearest teammate. Fuck. That.




I think stated before that I'm really not as knowledgeable about some things pertaining to this RP, but my 2 cents are that a helo works better in giving agency to Mateus' character as "The Daring Pilot". Also if we have massive monsters that can crush either vehicle like empty soda cans, I'd like something with a bit more mobility lol

Also, I'm back from my thing, so I caN participate more readily again. :)
Drat :/ I'll have to try again.

I'll be busy the next few days but I guess expect a crappy drawing within the next week? Idk lmao

I think I have an idea as to what it looks like but we'll see.
Just a heads up i'm actually going to be out of the house for the next few days. Going to a convention.

So I guess don't interact with the mindless Rig-bot that will be accompanying the party lmao

Types of Magic


Enchanting: Applying innate magic power using either inlet crystals or magic symbols
to grant items with your own magical power, instead of using it to cast the spells these
items now function directly.

Casting: An umbrella term used for any magic style that uses one's innate magic power
to cast spells directly.

Foci-casting: Casting that uses a sort of tool to aid in the casting of magic. This is more
commonly wands and staves. Of course this is not limited to these objects, but these
empower a users magic the most. A foci has to contain some portion of wood, or leather.

Body-casting: Casting that uses one's body as a foci. Trading a tool for larger motions of
the body. This is a trade off, as one does not need to guard their foci, although they
need a larger range of motion to work, and thus are less able to wear armors or heavy
equipment.

Summoning: A magic that uses one's innate magic to reach out to creatures from other
planes of existence. This takes neither a foci nor body casting, though can be
enhanced with either. The downfall of this magic is that one binds a portion of
their mana to their summons. For a time after this summon is brought to one's command
they cannot use that mana for any other spell. There is also the chance that a summon
may run rampant, and cases of summoners killed by their summons exist.

Voice-casting: Putting magic power into specific words. Powerful and not suffering the
drawbacks of body casting or foci-casting, it means learning the language of the
mages, and naturally, having a voice to cast with.

Familiar-casting: Somewhere between summoning and foci-casting, this school of magic entails
forming a partnership with an entity. The magical force of the two is shared and melded,
and they are able to cast spells on and for each-other. Bound by the rules of the contract,
the strengths and weaknesses of this school change from caster to caster.

Spirit Bending: Using one's magic to confer with spirits and creatures on the plane of the
dead. They can manifest them into our world and use them to do things that other casters cannot.
They can also control their own soul far greater then others can. Can be enhanced by a foci.

About the city


The kingdom of Allumara is a place where magic thrives. It's capital, Thesia; lays in a grassy valley surrounded by mountains on all sides but one. In this valley it has all it needs to function and prosper. Trade routes open from the path to the south and with the bay to the southeast, prosperity has grown in the recent quarter of the century. Being a theocracy the high church of the sun is the presiding political power. It spreads the teaches of Alluria, the goddess of light and magic. While the churches rule is absolute here, the large city is split into different plots of land, and each are governed by an assigned noble. Either a higher up in the church or someone rich enough to buy their way in, these people make a profit from the sales within their sectors. Currently the kingdom is waging a crusade against a cluster of small bordering countries in the north. Attempting to finally pave the way through the forbidden mountain on their north side something has come to light. The people of Thesia have learned that they are not the only ones living in this valley.

Thesia is a major exporter in metals and ores, as well as weaponry, enchanted artifacts and magical items, agriculture, fish, and wine. The wealth of plant-life, around them (mundane or otherwise) has allowed the small congregation of people that originally settled there, to expand and grow into the bastion of pious might that they are now. While the northernmost peaks have been kept hidden by way of religious beliefs, the other mountains are a wealth of precious metals and stones. A wide river runs from the westwards peaks, and down through the city. A circle of large trees are grown at points around the city, built into and from these is a fence of magic powered technology creating a perimeter of safety from outside threats. Citizens are assured safety by this holy wall, as well as by the elite paladins that defend this city from the local dangerous fauna.
A major city thrives nestled in a semi-circle of mountains. In a world of magic, dragons, knighthoods and all other manner of fantastical doings, the things hidden deep in the heart of the northern mountain seem almost out of place.

When a city built on faith and belief is presented with something very literally alien to them, things change forever. The church that leads this city and country is a beast, and it is hungry for power. Snapping it's jaws at thing's it does not understand, a worldwide upheaval threatens extinction.
