Star Wars: Enclaves

Sorry if my reply is ass, I wasn't entirely sure what angle I should've went with ^-^ Just decided to join you two in the cockpit. And I'm sorry to all the hardcore Star Wars nerds for using the word "computer" ;)

Aether Oath Ether

Computers. Aether hated them.

She just couldn't quite figure out how to work the things. Sure she knew the workings of a fighter inside-out, but trying to extract information from advanced information storage systems had her head hurtling through hyperspace! She wasn't as tech savvy as the other two aboard the Krayt Fang, especially not Merak. His level of knowledge on technical things was somewhat intimidating to her. Then again, who was the one who could survive in a desolate wasteland without even a lightsaber?

... Yeah, he could possibly also know how to do that, too. Aether had no idea.

She hadn't gotten to know him much since his arrival, despite being a fellow Mirialan. It was good to know that she wasn't completely alone by race on Valkaina, though. The two worked in opposite angles, really, Merak being technological, and Aether spiritual, hence why they hadn't had the chance to really converse. Well, until now, that is.

On the other hand there was Alessia, sister to fellow Jedi Knight Maria, an instructor in the Ataru form of saber combat. Aether had sought her for lessons in Ataru for awhile now, though wasn't always met with success, the other Jedi Knight being far more busy than Aether finds herself being. After all, who wouldn't want to learn from a prodigy? Also traditionally Jedi Knights aren't to be tutored, though Aether was taught by her former master that the pursuit of knowledge was far more valuable than tradition or rules, and she's lived by that motto ever since. Additionally she found that sparring was a perfectly fine way to learn, despite getting beaten quite easily in the process. She found Alessia to be intriguing; despite being twins to Maria, she wasn't quite as capable a fighter as her sister. Even so Aether had to admit that there was no-one quite as proficient in Force Healing than her, which far out-shined Aether's own ability. It bought her respect in Aether's eyes.

... Computers really were quite frustrating...

With a defeated sigh Aether spun her chair around and looked over at Alessia. "Alessia."

No response.

"Alessia. Alessia?"

That got her attention. "Yes, sorry, what?" Quizzed the other Jedi Knight, as she turned her attention to her Mirialan comrade. Aether glanced quickly at the display at her side, then back to Alessia. "Could you... please fill me in on what we're about to be running into? I cannot get the machine here to tell me what I need to know..." It was embarrassing to say, but Aether managed to mask it well, her expression stoic, almost stone-faced.

She really needed to get a better grasp on technology...

Ren waited a little before she could make her command, Shyn a little tired from making two moves in quick succession. As the pair witnessed the smokescreen spray at the ground, Ren listened to Oaken's order to basically bubble everything. After all it had been through, Ren knew it was likely rather tired. It wouldn't have to keep going for long. "Wait out the smokescreen behind that fence and give Horsea your hardest tackle when you can see him, Shyn. If he smokescreens again, run in there and follow the sound of Horsea's bubble-blowing." Ren's tone was even and calm, apparently regarding the situation as good as won. Of course if Oaken wanted to continue then that was on him, but Ren didn't want his Horsea nor Shyn getting anymore hurt than was required. She was a cheater, not cruel.

"If you want we can end the battle here." Ren noted to Oaken. "We all know how this would have gone had I not fought unfair. All I wanted you to know was that not everyone out there can be trusted to fight on the same ground as you. Do not expect a wild Pokemon to play by the rules set for humans." Her words remained even and calm, yet a little softer than usual. It was apparent she wouldn't think less of him or be a snob about calling it a draw; truth be told, she was actually impressed by how well Oaken had handled himself. She wouldn't argue to him saying no, however she didn't expect Horsea to hold out much longer, and would rather not have the Pokemon suffer.

'Mmmmngh... No, mother, please... F-father...'

"AAAAAHHH!"

Emile thrusts herself up and accidentally finds her face at the floor. Due to her twisting and turning of a nightmare, she couldn't stay in bed, and fell out. Though she doesn't recollect why, the throbbing pain in her head is distraction enough to make her want some ice. "Owww..." Mutters the young woman as tears begin to form in her eyes. She didn't like pain, and couldn't understand how some people could thrive off of it. Things like this were perfectly good examples of why she wasn't a fan of action or violence...

Untangling herself from the mess of damp bed sheets and blankets, Emile manages to get up, albeit by dragging herself to her feet, requiring great effort. Her ocean-blue eyes scan the bedroom: unfamiliar. Though she felt she couldn't remember a whole lot, certain things came to be familiar to her, though apparently this bedroom wasn't such a thing. She notes how lucky she is to have avoided one of the nightstands on either side of the bed, before noticing the bland, though pretty, room wasn't as barren as she initially thought. There, sitting on the desk opposite the bed, sits a note; simple, short, and in handwriting she didn't recognize. Though it did trigger a thought:

'Ted- I mean Grian, Grian.'

Following the note's directions, Emile exits the guest room in which she's sleeping in, looking about the current hall she's presently in. She had to admit that the place looks a lot more grand than she would have thought from her giant Teddy. It takes but a quick glance to identify the stairs, and she hastily makes her way toward them and descends, thanking the gods she doesn't feel dizzy, but using the guardrail, just in case. It opens up to a dining hall with a long table at it's center, once again looking quite regal. "I never thought Grian would have such pleasantries..." She murmurs, before looking around and calling to her newly-found friend. "Um, hello...? Grian?"

Psychological Attributes

Delusional * Scared * Bipolar * Somewhat childish

Sexuality: "Sexa-what?" She has no idea.
Relationship Status: N/A
Personality: Ira isn't perfect when it comes to her personality. In fact she faces numerous mental illnesses which make everyday living for her as unique as those in her favourite novels! Generally Ira is a lot like a constantly frightened little girl who suffers from delusions, although these delusions are often what make her personality fluctuate between upbeat and terrified. When not suffering from delusions, at least not for a long period of time, her mood is a lot lighter and she is far more outgoing. She likes to sing, dance, sell things in her shop, read, write, play games with herself (or others if she has company), practice speeches and public speaking, do bad impressions, and sometimes adventure. She's a lot more joyous and likes to spread that joy with others. Although she talks loud and often, Ira tends to not always be the most articulate speaker, accidentally saying things that may be insensitive or inappropriate, her emotions often being the guide for her speaking ability. She's smart, though, and enjoys messing with puzzles, often randomly issuing them to strangers to see if they are capable.

On the other hand, Ira has her... less joyous side. Terrified out of her wits and quiet, Ira's delusional state involves her nerves being on-edge and her accomplishments declining to a sharp and sudden zero. She fears doing things because she doesn't want to go into a frenzy, and so usually just studies up on cures, ways to make blood, what the most human blood one can find underground is, or plan her next victim. If left unable to do those things, however, Ira will essentially do nothing but eat, sleep, loiter, and defecate. While rather level-headed and capable in combat when not in this state, she will almost always attempt to flee in terror when faced with danger in her frightened mindset. This is sometimes accompanied by Ira desperately clutching her Sun Shard amulet and rocking back and forth, weeping.
Habits: Minimal 2

• Clutches her Sun Shard amulet when nervous or afraid.
• Raises her hood in public for fear of being recognised by members of the Church, or more superstitious folk.
• Adjusts her glasses.
• Muddles her speech.

Hobbies: Enjoys writing, reading, singing, dancing, playing violin, practicing swordsmanship, and resting. Well, in a good mood.
Fears: 3 real fears that make your character unhinged

• Death, both for her and innocents.
• Going into a frenzy.
• The delusions she has.
• Losing her amulet.
• The dark.
• The Church.
• Hunters.
• The creatures in the tunnels.
• People shaming her. Publicly, obviously.
• Her extra weaknesses as a vampire.
• Getting her extra strengths as a vampire.
• Humans.

Likes: 6 minimal

• Books
• Singing/Composing
• People who aren't especially judgmental

Skills

A listing of skills, such as horseback riding, and natural abilities, such as night vision - this also includes any racial edges

• Vision: Mostly due to her vampirism, Ira is a lot more sensitive to light, and thus tends to see a lot better than most people. In fact, with her little Sun Shard amulet, she can navigate and make out the area ahead of where the light for most people loses it's effectiveness. This ability has steadily gotten better over time, though of course has a loooooooooooong way to go. Also, direct sunlight, as in that from the sun, is not only blinding, but painful for her.
• Better Senses: What sets her vision apart from the rest is it's many lengths more potent than, for example, Ira's hearing. However, her other senses are still quite a bit more potent than the average human. Able to hear a whisper from across a street (although not well) and able to smell a select person's blood as though she were a hound, in order to track them. These senses are used often for exploiting people in her shop, however, and can sometimes be a hindrance in combat (e.g. unable to hear due to the loud noises).
• Swordsmanship: Though not excellent with a blade, Ira can handle herself if the situation calls for it. Though she's usually a lot more skilled at avoiding fights or planning escapes routes, she can still use her intelligence to out-smart an enemy with a blade.
• A People Person: Despite being a vampire, Spencer is good with people. Well, when she's not delusional, anyways. She is great at handling others' emotions, offering support and helpful advice, though occasionally muddles her speech. This can lead to some humorous misunderstandings and Ira's unique and estranged laugh, which often has people laughing harder.
• Tactical: Due to all the texts she's read and games she plays, Spencer has a pretty solid understanding of tactics. She's good with her decision-making and knows how to handle various situations, be it in combat or in conversation with someone, as well as anything in between. Though she lacks much experience in actually applying this with others, her outgoing personality leads her to being capable of issuing orders or making plans.
• Healing: Yes, Ira can self-heal, however the ability isn't quite as powerful as one would think. The process takes almost a half-hour to kick in, and has varying rates dependent on where the wound actually is. Wounds at her core heal the quickest due to their close proximity with the stomach, in which a blood vile (the trigger for the healing process) would go when ingested. Wounds to her head, forearms, hands, fingers, calves, feet, and toes all are significantly slower. Additionally, more blood is required to properly heal the more intense wounds, draining Ira's supply. Wounds in the past have ranged from an hour to heal to several days, depending on intensity and blood on her person. Out of desperation instincts may kick in and Ira could go into a frenzy, draining whoever or whatever is closest to her in order to heal herself, though if too much of her own blood is lost, this frenzy dies with Ira.

Possessions Generally On Person: Clothing, coin purse, money, etc

• Sun Shard Amulet: This is Ira's most prized possession, and she NEVER lets it out of her sight, or even off her person. It emits light like all Sun Shards, though is somewhat dimmer than others due to it's long-term use. The Sun Shard itself is actually carved into a hexagonal shape, with a perfect sheen and cut, lacking even a single chip. It's a priceless artifact. Usually the Sun Shard is hidden beneath her cloak, though she will occasionally reveal the item for light or comfort.
• Glasses: Large, round, nerdy glasses. What you should expect from someone like her. They help her read up close, though she will usually just wear them regardless of the situation. They get dirty easy.
• Handkerchief: Exactly what you think it is. Used to clean glasses, wipe away tears, or to cover her mouth in especially dusty/dirty areas.
• Her Coin Purses: Keeps all her money on her, though in various purses. And pockets.

Weapons: Personal weapons, no magically enhanced items

• Silver-tipped Steel Sword: Clue is in the name. Ira's sword is made of a thin, refined steel, with a literal silver lining at the tip extending ten centimeters along the blade's edges. Is a little longer and thinner than most blades, but will still get the job done. She was self-taught with it, and wields it in a left-handed reverse grip. Yes she's aware that's wrong, but it works!
• Steel Dagger: Lacks a whole lot of practical use, and is her last-resort weapon in case she loses her sword or bow. It's quite sharp, but requires close proximity.
• Bow and Arrow: Yes she has a bow, but really needs to learn how to use it...

Armor: Base armor only, no magically enhanced items

• Cloak: It doesn't offer much protection except for being really dark. Makes hiding a bit easier.

Pack Contents: What do you carry in you pack when traveling

• 7x Viles of Spare Blood: Not always fresh. It's Ira's sustenance, the only stuff she really needs. She can survive for months off of it if she doesn't exert herself much, but considering her trade it's hard not to run into trouble occasionally or be forced to travel. Thus it'll only last her about a week, usually, and tastes horrid. Might make her sick in the process, too. She'll be forced to drink a vile if entering a combat situation or when wounded, making managing her sustenance a bit more difficult. Additionally, while this triggers her healing process, the process is slow and will require more viles for more intensive wounds.
• Her Wares: Carrying ones wares around with them is a little extreme at times, especially without vampire super strength. Still, these are usually just expensive trinkets, small weapons, goods, books, sometimes food, and alchemical things. Though lately all she has on her is a rusty dirk, three necklaces, five different books (four philosophical texts, one literature), and a vase.
• Her Violin: Yes, carrying the violin around as well makes things heavier, but she likes her music. Somehow always manages to carry it despite what she also has in her bag.

Magical Items:

• The Big Book of Everything: Once you write something into the Big Book, it's cataloged into it's pages for eternity. If you were just an ordinary person opening the book on a whim, then you'd find that it has absolutely no writing in it whatsoever. However, if you were looking for something which has been entered into the Big Book, then you're in luck! See, upon writing in the book, your words will disappear from the page you wrote it on and only show if you desire to see the knowledge. The book has some sort of mind-reading capability, and if someone wants something from the book, it'll display it on a page, so long as it's been entered. Ira has only recently got her hands on the artifact and has treasured it second only to her amulet and guitar.
• Weak Illusion Potion x3: Aforementioned big book of everything managed contained a rather useful illusion potion. It's nothing especially strong, but it changes the colour of Ira's eyes to a deep blue instead of red, and her fangs are slightly less visible. The potions, despite not being especially powerful, have a long effect time of four hours, and the ingredients are fairly common in the tunnels.

History

Childhood: The start of Ira's young life was grand. She was raised to a loving priestess mother and funny violinist father. A unique blend to be sure, but the two cherished one-another, as well as their only daughter, all throughout Ira's childhood. Ira's mother was one of the good kinds of priestess', and though she didn't condone what those who were corrupt in the Church were doing, she was smart enough not to question them. She raised Ira by inspiring her with faith in the Church, setting her daughter onto a path of righteousness and kindness, but also intelligence. On the other hand, her father treated her more like an equal, like a friend, like a mentor. He taught Ira the joys of living, those being in music, literature, and good humor. Both parents had desires to raise their child the right way, and they trusted one-another to make sure their little girl grew up to be a good person. And for Ira-Anne Spencer, this process was a smooth and happy part of her life which still bring a tear to her eye to this day. Mostly in happiness, but also in traumatic sadness...

Ira's upbringing had been rather smooth until she was ten, when she and her father were attacked by a man -- though he seemed more creature than man -- and were sucked almost bone-dry of blood. Ira's father had been killed, however Ira survived as the guards arrived in time to drive the beast off thanks to the commotion her father made during the scuffle, as well as Ira's own cries for help. Tragedy struck, however, when the signs of vampirism started to appear on the young girl in recovery. Everyone, including her own mother (likely out of grief) blamed Ira for the events which transpired, and Ira was to be executed for being both a demon spawn and a murderer. She was still in recovery, not even conscious, when the election of execution was made, however Ira's mother plead to spend the night with her child one last time. Somehow, Ira doesn't quite know, but somehow she managed to do so. That was when Ira and her mother became public enemies of both the Church and, in many peoples' eyes, all living beings.

Ira awoke the night her mother stayed overnight, and her mother filled her in on what had happened, and what was to come. Though obviously torn in her decision, Ira's mother decided to risk her own life to save that of her child. She already had an escape plan hatched (it helped knowing the city due to her being a priestess), and, knowing there was no going back, the two enacted their escape from Zalu. The road was tough, needless to say, but the two were close. However, just as they were reaching the outskirts, they ran into a large patrol of guards and were forced to run. Ira didn't have the strength yet, so her mother had to do all the work. While they were attempting to escape, Ira's mother had been shot multiple times with arrows, and found herself leaving a trail of blood for the guards to follow by. Her strength was weakening and they were running out of time. Time that she didn't have. But Ira did.

The last of her mother's strength was sapped by none other than Ira herself, when she drained her mother of blood to recover her own strength. After slitting her own throat with her husband's sword, Ira's mother handed her daughter her prized Sun Shard Amulet and the sword she'd just used to take her own life. Her dying wish was but three words long: "Run... and live...!"

So Ira ran. And ran. And ran. She didn't stop until she couldn't run any further, and when that happened, she cried. Yet she didn't even have the strength for that, and fell asleep soon after her collapse...
Adulthood: She stayed like that for days. But eventually, she got too hungry to continue laying on the ground. She found herself drawn back to Zalu, in search of food. Yet the only food avaliable was an old man in a dark alley on the very outskirts of town, sickly and starving himself...

The two talked, the old man telling his story. He was a noble once, but was found corrupt and tried, all he stood for ruined. He'd lived on the street for far too long now, and he knew his time was up. He said that killing him in such a state would be considered merciful and would be praised by people like him - that death was the best thing for him. Though she barely knew this man longer than a couple of hours, that lesson ended up shaping all of Ira's coming life. She gave the man peace, and was blessed with what little life he could offer. Though Ira hated the blood, she saw just how happy death had made the man, and experimented. She learned only to take the lives of willing participants, or drain small amounts of blood from unsuspecting individuals to get her by, so to not completely delve into her vampire self. She aged to look a bit older, somewhere in her mid teens, however it stopped after a certain point and her aging slowed to a crawl.

She's lived her life as closely to what her parents would have wanted for her since then, though of course there are some exceptions like being a vampire or being wanted by the city of Zalu (and sometimes beyond). She opts to drink blood as little and far-between as possible, going for long periods starved of the stuff now, fasting. Due to a certain event that happened long ago, Ira makes sure never to starve herself too much, and has learned that the sacrifice of the few is optimum to save the many. Nowadays Spencer the Vampire roams the underground to try and make an honest living, though not everyone takes to vampires very well...
Special Moments: Her parents' death plague her mind and often bring about most of her fears and delusions. Her mothers death weighs especially heavy on her conscience, and Ira feels guilty for not being able to save her. Also her freak incident in the past haunts her, and acts as a constant reminder to never starve herself to the point of near-death...
Current Events: Shezze is a safe haven for Spencer. The people out there are on hard times, and Ira makes exceptions for them, cutting down prices till it's a dime a dozen. They keep out of each-others' way, though trading relations are good, and Ira has steadily begun earning something of a place there, though it may be awhile yet to find that.

Of course... it would all come to an end if she were to be found out as a vampire...

Extras

Theme Song: A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes; Happy Theme; Delusional Theme
Aura Color: Red and grey.
Scent: Blood. Pretty straightforward, I know.
Anything Else: I didn't completely fill in the stats because I wanted a more accurate representation of her strength and constitution without advancing other stats, though if it's essential to the app then I'd just up the strength and constitution to 11.

@6slyboy6 Well I mean you were kinda inactive afterward so I thought you weren't following :D

@liferusher Thank you! ^-^ I stole it from a friend so feel free to search for it through google images :P

Endless Darkness [Open 1-2 spots]

@Marx and those two in a group with a twin witches that cause blood to boil... quite literally xD

@rivaan

Don't scar my 53 year old baby ;-; She's scared of blood!

Speaking of Spencer, she's all ready to go ^-^ Just to list the changes quickly:
1. Guitar changed to a violin, since it's more dramatic that way ;)
2. Ira's mother took two steps back to be a priest(ess)
3. Shezze folk don't know about Ira's vampirism due to a potion she discovered in the Big Book of Everything (though she's basically worthless at making other potions), and she still trades with them for cheap ^-^ Can also be used as a plot point since I may need to get her a reason to run into the scary dark caves instead of back towards the other towns/cities.
