Grimoiric Heart

Thanks! :)

First post officially out, so we'll see how it goes from there.

Grimoiric Heart

It had been days since Maria left her villa back in southern France. For years now, Maria had been doing her work solo, mostly, and it had been working out rather well. For a time... for a long time, she managed to keep her area cleaned and secured. She preferred it this way, as her powers were hard to control and risky to use and she could never be sure of when, if ever, the day would come where she failed and unleashed something she'd rather not think about. Because of this, she felt as if relationships - magical girls or otherwise - was simply an added risk she had to do without. However, this was no longer an option.

Maria had received a letter, or rather an order, directly from the Grand Ministry that strongly suggested she should relocate herself at the Marrywell Academy, in London. It would seem she had little say in the matter and the Ministry being what they are and holding the sway they did, Maria had to agree with their suggestion. And so, no later than a few days later, she was in London.

Amongst the many reasons cited and half-hidden strong-arming arguments in the letter was an explanation that they believed that Maria needed to stop being solo, and she...kind of agreed, in a way. Working alone was never her wish, but a self imposed restriction for fear of her Grimoire - and it took it's toll. Loneliness could only be endured so long, and Maria's career approached a century now. She felt that isolation was almost as big a risk to her mental state than risking it with others and mixed with the Ministry orders - here she was.

All of this was going through her mind while the silver-haired woman walked through the Academy's paths, eventually arriving where she was heading. Maria had been told to reach the Training Facility B, where she'd meet fellow magical girls. More accurately, she was asked by the Ministry to be a team leader, of all things, and to come here to watch the girls which might become her team members. She tried to do so without catching too much attention, but...

It turned out the viewing space she went up to was already inhabited by a pair of girls; one red haired one and another taller with a gothic appearance, both seemed around Maria's physical age. They themselves would notice Maria was wearing a long black dress that clashed with modern times, her pale blonde hair neatly tied at the back and she was walking with regal appearances, hands joint at the front. She walked up close to them, until she could also see the girls on the training field, then addressed them.

"Hello." she said, keeping her stare blank for now, but bearing a smile as best she could. "You must be Charlotte. My name is Maria de Borbón, freshly arrived here in London. Pleasure to meet you, miss Clementine..." she said with a slight polite bow that, again, betrayed her advanced age and upbringing.

"...as I am you, miss...?" she said, trying to remain as polite as can be.

I'ma have some catching up to do in this IC. x_x

María de Borbón

Spanish

Maria

Description: Maria has been a magical girl for close to a century now. Although a very distant relative, she was technically born in the house de Borbón, the ruling Royal Family of modern Spain. Her family, while not in direct contact with the monarchs, were still very wealthy of their own means and Maria grew up in need of nothing. She attended the most prestigious schools and had the best education available, indulging in many kind of excess until her 20th birthday.

In 1937, in the midst of the Spanish Civil war, her family's estate was ransacked by a mob of angry civilians. Which side they represented mattered little and Maria never knew. In the village that they lived, their family represented excess and induced jealousy, so when everyone was starving, angry and ready to fight the inevitable happened and the family met it's fate and the hands of angry Revolutionaries. However, not Maria. She lived on through means she could never have anticipated. Before she, too, was killed by angry men something magical happened - a great book appeared before her. It was a dark book covered in ominous symbols and a dark aura, yet Maria felt the need to grab it...and the rest is history. Before the astonished eyes of the people present, María de Borbón disappeared never to be seen again.

A life of undeserving excess led her here, led her to possess this dark Grimoire - The Mythos of the Angel of Darkness, the Devil himself.

She was going to have to atone. Sole inheritor of her family's fortune, Maria traveled to France where she hid for a time, understanding her newly acquired power and coming to terms with it. For the longest time after that she operated alone. She had heard of the academy, but was wary of others. Her Grimoire gave her great powers, but she felt a constant pull towards something she was not, towards what the Mythos represented; Evil, Deceit and many kind of Excess. She could tap in this power, but had to remain strong not to give in, and felt like close relationship to others, magical girls or otherwise, was a risk.

Eventually, however, The Ministry summoned her to come and join their rank. It was not a proposition this time, and she knew it. Maria also knew that her time being able to be on her own was drawing to a close. if she was to somehow fall - whatever that implied - she wanted others to be close by to deal with what she'd become then.

Morning Star

Morning Star

♫

Grimoire:
• Title: The Devil's Mythos.
• Classification: Myth.
• Description: The Devil's Mythos encompass the beliefs surrounding the fallen angel, under his many, many guises through just as many folk tales and ethnic groups. It whispers of promises of power, tell tales of deceits and of great many unspeakable betrayals. It contains the human belief of evil incarnate, no matter the origin or religion. It encompass every fears and has the will to dominate others. Needless to say, such a cursed Grimoire grants much powers - but at the risky cost of becoming what it represents.

Abilities

Morning Star is Maria's chosen title for her Magical Girl persona. The less ominous name given to Lucifer, from the origin before it was the incarnation of all evil.

Her powers, however, are less buried in forgotten meanings and more...to the point. As the bearer of the Devil's Mythos, her powers manifest as one would expect; with Hellfire.

• Demonic Strength: When calling on her powers, Morning Star has access to incredible super human strength and her physical attacks are devastating and deadly to all but the strongest foes - or the quickest.
• Hellfire: Maria can call upon hellfire to surround her in a great tempest of fire, and can direct the flames to immolate enemies around.
• Hellfire: Enhance: As if her great physical strength was not already enough, Maria can call upon the hell flames to enhance almost all of her attacks. her physical attacks would then be delivered with explosive, fiery effect and leave enemies charred and burning.
• Wings of Evil: While she cannot remain in flight, Maria can summon forth two great bat-like wings wreathed in flames to send her a great distance away - like an enhanced jump.
• Beelzebub: Probably her greatest weapon comes in the form of floating sword that looks like a cross that constantly remains floating behind her. The sword is made of an unknown dark metal and seemingly does very little until Maria calls upon it. When she does, she gets engulfed in flames for a time until the fire takes the form of a goat demon, first it's skeleton and progressively the full creature. Only it's upper body shows, Maria standing in the chest area and protected by the flames. When in this form, the Demon wield the great Dark-steel sword, now also wreathed in Hellfire.

Prophetiae Adventum: Envoys of the Pantheon

There will be a modification coming to characters soon enough, probably tomorrow. A lot of confusion seeped in, so I will do a slight yet very beneficial modification to characters origins.

If you are creating characters, you might want to hold for this. I will ping everyone and review all characters once I edited it in !

Prophetiae Adventum: Envoys of the Pantheon

@Siber
Hey, checked the character. There are a few things that we would have to address lore-wise regarding her past, but that I cannot type right now! Nothing terrible don't worry, it's just there is so much details in my head that it was impossible for me to list every possible infos about the world in the OOC. :P
Just wanted to let you know I've seen it.

@Rune_Alchemist
Sent you a message regarding Liora. Also a few things to discuss.

EDIT

Some modification was done in the OOC Concept section. I will post it here, it's also up there. I tried to explain the character original concept better, as I know from experience of having ran it before that it's the one thing people get confused about.

The Envoys are programmed with a 'primary function' of; Serving the Pantheon, being loyal to it and accomplishing the mission they were sent on Edanica for, regardless of who their host body was and who they worshipped. That being said, you won't be machines. After the merge, the original host is effectively gone, dead, but remnants of it's mind and emotions and memories remain and affect the Envoy who's own personality will now be affected by those mementos at varying degrees (you decide).

When they merge with the host, this is where they gain their particular personality/idiosyncrasies and overall character from...effectively creating a new being that is a combination of the host and the Envoy's original loyalties and mission.

It's entirely possible, and expected, that characters will eventually meet conflicting situations from the host's past life.

EDIT - 2

Added Discord link top of the OOC. When you get in there, you can notify me on there or here and I will assign you the correct role if I did not yet!

Prophetiae Adventum: D&d inspired world, Fantasy Adventure

Hello. I would invite you to reads the full post again as well as the OOC, which has a bit more info!

No, it does not matter. It is only inspired by it, but all the info you need is gonna be in here. :)

Prophetiae Adventum: Envoys of the Pantheon

@Siber Herro. I would have liked for you to post the character in the OCO and not the character tab until it was accepted, please. :/

Now is too late, just a heads up. I'll take a look at it when I got more time!
