I guess my comfort zone is "eccentric side character."

Most Recent Posts

Name: Rex Tyran
Age: 15


Power: Rex is a conduit for the power of the dinosaurs. As such he has enhanced physical parameters and the ability to conjure dinosaurs.

Bio: Rex was screwing around on a field trip to the museum when he accidentally knocked over and destroyed a T-rex skeleton, the falling debris knocking him in the head and sending him into a short coma.

In his dreams the Dinosaurs came to him and told him that, because of his flagrant disrespect and act of vandalism, he would be forced to be their representative in the current age, protect Dinosaur remains from those who'd seek to harm them, eighth wrongs committed against them, or be haunted by Dinosaur ghosts forever in this dream. He told them to go screw themselves, but after a few blood soaked nights in a Cretaceous jungle he came around to their way of thinking and was allowed to wake up.

The police surprisingly bought this story, especially considering the apparent new superpowers he'd gained while asleep, and deciding that dinosaur ghosts were way above their pay grade they remanded him into the custody of Oakport High to get him started on the punishment that had already been laid out for him.

Personality: Brass, hot-blooded, and very aggro. Will fight anyone and anything. Couldn't think his way out of a thin paper bag, but is so stubborn he'll just keep going at a problem till it's solved.

Extras: Actively avoids learning anything about dinosaurs out of spite.
Man, y'all are to fast for me. Plus, this isn't really the game I signed on for anymore. Peace, and have fun with it.

Linkle looked up as Bowser and the wizard started playing good guard/bad guard with the guildmarm and frowned at how obviously uncomfortable they were making the nice looking young lady. She absentmindedly let the gunpowders fall out of her hands and into those of the Courier and walked forward to give the boys a piece of her mind about that.

Turns out she didn't have to worry all that much, and Linkle's grin widened as none other than the Master of Masters swooped to her rescue first!

Or, at least, a guy who looked just like the Master of Masters. His mannerisms, though similarly energetic, the voice was all wrong had this slight but unmistakable twinge of sleeze to it. Besides, the Master could see the future. If you could do that it would take all the fun out of gambling. But if he wasn't the master they definitely shopped for clothes at the same place, so he must have been from the same world.

She sidled up to the counter as the man was dealing out the quest cards, crossing her arms on the table and laying her chin on them to watch him deal them out. She read them out one at a time, and wasn't surprised to see the rewards listed in rupees. If she got a few of these under her belt there was no way she wouldn't be able to square her self-imposed dept to Cid. If she just wanted money it would be easy to take the rock gathering job, something she was confident she could go all day at, but her eyes slid off that card and was drawn as though by some compelling force to the more urgent ones. Missing people and evil fish creatures took priority over cold hard cash.

Then again, it wasn't like the Guildmaster had said anything about only one quest to a person. It wasn't like they had somewhere they desperately needed to be either.

Speaking of the Guildmaster she looked up at him. "Hey?" She said to get his attention. "Do you know a man who calls himself the Master of Masters? He helped us out a while ago, and he dresses exactly like you." A sudden thought occurred, and she excitedly pushed herself up from the counter. "Wait, if you're the Guild Master, and he's the Master of Masters, does that make him your master? Do you have any idea where his eye would be?"

By now Bowser had turned back, his thump of the counter putting the cards askew and sending a tremor up Linkle's arms. He gazed down at the cards, clearly in deep thought, but it didn't seem that complicated to her. "Let's just do all of them." She said, already getting fired up. "Between the lot of us I'll bet we could knock all of these out in one day, team up on that big monster, and leave the town clamoring for more."

"Imma box him then sell the video to Animal Planet." She said confidently, pulling herself back up onto the step. "If they're gonna fund a whole show about four big ol' rednecks going to look for him I figure I'll get on there easy."

She suddenly smirked, tilting her head from behind the viewfinder. "You really think he's a guy?" Claude hadn't considered bigfoot might be sentient. To her it was simple; cool ass people would be living at the school and in the dorms, but you'd keep a weird ass animal in the woods so you didn't have to clean up its massive mythological dumps. Still, the thought excited her. "That'd be even better." She said with a smirk. "We could do pre-fight trash talk, interviews, do this up right."

Her thoughts were pulled away from the idea of a properly promoter pay-per-view when she heard voices coming from another room. She turned her back to the stairs and peeked around the corner into the nearest room. The boy from the hallways was in there, along with a girl from the bus and and a dude that was already in bed.

"C'Mon, you're all Tuckered out already? We barly just got here."
There was an uncomfortable number of necromanantic death entities in the room at this point, not to mention he could feel the eyes of a big mother hubber on them now that probably had perhaps the biggest skeleton of all.

He tilted his eyes upward and could see the swirling death energy. A ghost eye, like his, staring down at them. It was a gaze that was oddly familliar.

The realization hit him like a millstone. "Hey, is that him right now? Hold on, hold on a minute, can I just..." He said walking close to the scythe girl and leaned down, tilting his head to the side to try and listen at her ear as though she were some kind of information transmitting device that hadn't been invented yet. "Hey fuckface, is that you? It just hit me right now, I think me and my uncle killed one of your fingers."

When the group finally rolled up to the village the back door of the rabbid's truck popped open as the three jumpers bounced out of the door and into the open grassland, one flying right out and into a tree with the assistance of his brethren. He started swinging from a low branch as the other two laughed it up.

Linkle followed them out, stretching out and taking a deep breath of the fresh, cool air. Even with the hint of exhaust still floating in the air the feeling was unmistakable. "Ahhhhh. It even smells like a Hyrule. Hey Tora, you wanted to know what the world I came from was like?" She said, starting to turn and help him carry Poppi out of the back. "It was like this."

She helped Tora at least until she hearted Din give a shout. Upon hearing yhe news she rushed around the front of the truck and stopped cold as she laid eyes on one of the guards posted at the entrance of the village they were about to enter. To most people such a young boy would be completely unassuming in any village. Even his position here, trusted with ensuring the safety of the village, would come only as a surprise to most considering his age. Linkle knew though. She knew exactly who this was. From the green tunic, to hair, to the hand with which he gripped his sword, his identity was unmistakable.

"You're the Hero of Time!" She managed to squeal out before her throat was filled up with frog. She usteadly stepped forward till she was right beside Din and her loyal goat, shaking with excitement and trying to figure out what you were supposed to say in this situation. She had never actually thought about what she was going to say tell a fellow hero once she met them. After all, how were you supposed to talk to yourself without making it weird?

All right, all right, now wasn't the time to panic. He was just a person, Din was right here, she had already got the ball rolling, everything was fine. Treat it like anyone else. Start by introducing yourself. "Hi, I'm you." No!!

She threw up her hands in a pleading gesture. "No, wait, I'm you from the future...no, wait, that's not right. you already did that. I'm you but after you die. No, no, that's even worse." She pounded herself on the chest, closed her eyes, and took three deep breaths to they and stabilized herself. Once she felt like she could speak without putting her foot in her mouth she opened up her eyes and said, slowly. 'I'm Linkle. I'm a Hero of Hyrule, like you. You know, reincarnated? I'm sorry if this is weird. It's just that you're, like, the one legend that all the others get compared to."

She looked around awkwardly, teying to basically will the charming Din to help smooth this over before Linkle died of embarrassment. As she was looking around, though, she laid eyes on Tora slowly dragging Poppi through the gate. That reminded her of her priorities. After all, the state Poppi was in was partially her fault as much as the damage done to the old mans garage. She wasn't going to be paying back that dept by standing here starstruck, especially if everyone moved on without her. Not to mention the sight of it made her feel like, maybe, she didn't exactly deserve to stand in the presence of the greatest of them right now. She turned regretfully back to the Hero of Time. "Sorry, I have to go. I don't want to get left behind. But, would it be all right if we talked later? You can talk to Din right now, though. She's great. She definely knew an us. Maybe she knew you, maybe that was actually you." Babbling, she was starting to babble again. "I should go." She said quickly.

She hardly waited for an reply as she rushed over to Tora, retreating from any possible refusal and doing her best to help support Poppi's weight as they made their way into town. As they made their way through it certainly seemed like a rustic place, much more familiar to her than the arid garage. Her hometown was was very similar to this, save for the castle that served as it's centerpiece. As they made their way past the animal paddocks, which she paid special attention too expecting to find Cukoo's happily pecking away, an old song drifted into her mind that she absentmindedly began to whistle as they made their way down main street.

She had to part ways with Tora and Poppi at the guild hall as the two of them left her company and Tora was left to lug the Blade the rest of the way on his own.

In contrast to the cowboys rudeness at the assorted looks the eclectic group drew from the residents of the hall Linkle just gave everybody a hearty wave. She looked up at him as his attention was drawn by something and followed his gaze to the bizarre cube man sitting by himself. He seemed dumbstruck for a moment by the cube man, so she tapped the cowboy on the back to get his attention. "Sometimes things are just cubes." She said, remembering the cube zombies, the cube spiders, and the cube whatever-you-call-those-scary-things-that-teleport. She pulled out her cube bow and gave the impossibly cuboid string a pluck to play a perfectly ordinary twang.

Actually, since that guy was a whole cube person he might know something that had been bugging her for a while. She broke off from the group momentarily and approached the cube man. "Hi." She said. "This might be kind of weird, but you seem like the sort of person who'd know what these are."

She pulled the weird black cookies out and laid them on the table, where they balanced upright and floated in little circles. After a brief, enlightening conversation, she walked back up to the cowboy with the two things in her hand to show him. "Where he's from this is what gunpowder looks like."
"You could, but do it someplace private. I tried it on a dare once. Had great dreams. Woke up seconds before being buried alive."
"Hey there boys." Gadot said, leaning in the doorway with a bag hanging from his fist. He walked inside, looking over Fenris's shoulder to get a good look at the map before plopping the bag in the middle of the table with the distinctive sloshing of liquid. "Sorry I'm so late. Decided to leave you to it once the party really got going. Alcohol's never been much used to me since the incident. Besides, had to go somewhere."

He dumped the bag, scattering three hand sized leather flasks onto the table. They were each capped with a metal cork and jostled from the piqued inside like water balloons. "Went to see a guy I know, in case you were still serious about that no killing people vow. If it looks like we're gonna get in a fight just apply a few drops of this to your weapons. It's meant to knock out rampaging bulls, but it works just as well on men."

"No way." Linkle said as the old owner of the garage offered to wave the fee for the damage she'd caused in what could very charitably be called a misadventure. This was her fault. The heroic thing to do was at least make up for the damages. She patted herself down, trying to find her wallet. "If someone came into my house and fought my birds...well, they'd be halfway to a stalfoes...but it's the principle of the thing. So just let me, uh...."

Where was it? She knew she'd had it before all this, a big stinking wallet stuffed with rupees. More rupees than she knew what to do with, enough to lounge on like a fat happy cat. Monsters just burst into them sometimes. It's not like she had anything to spend them on while she'd been out in the wild so they'd just been gathering dust in her Wallet. Which wasn't here!

She froze up and glared at Galeem. Today had been terrible so far. She ate a bunch of dust, her bike got smashed, a bird she'd just been trying to help attacked her, all the other girls transformations were cooler than hers, and now it turned out that Galeem had stolen all her money.

She looked mournfully at Cid. Now she had been a double jerk for getting his hopes up, and monsters around here didn't drop as Much currency as she was used to. But then she hit on an idea.

"We're gonna have to come back through here to get back to the castle. By then, I'll have as many rupees as you need to pay for this." She said. Bowser had said it, they were headed to the Land of Adventure. There was no way there wasn't something she could do there to earn a bunch of money. Adventure and Treasure were inseparable words, you couldn't have one without the other. "Oh, and that." She said, pointing to the pile of scrap Banjo had laid in the garage. "That was mine. It used to be the coolest kart in our whole group, until it got smashed by the huge one. If you were to rebuild it I bet you could sell it for tons of money. And if not, I'll buy it back from you when we come back through."

Linkle nodded at herself for being such a good haggler, but then Bowsers yell to get a move on cut through her brain. "Right, sorry, I gotta run. I'll be back though."

Everyone was already pulling out, but the now undermanned rabbit kart helpfully slowed back to pick up any stragglers. A few of the springy one sat in the back, door open, alternatively laughing and waving their arms in encouragement as she raced after it and jumped aboard.




The land of adventure turned out to be very nice, a far cry from the dusty roads they followed here. "It's almost like we're back in Hyrule." She said. It was probably a far better place than the horrible demon castle the rest of the group had driven off too. Honestly, normally she'd have jumped at the chance of knocking over some horrible demon castle but she had depts to pay and every hero knew you didn't head to the horrible demon castle if you still had side things to do.

She watched the birds running by outside, yellow fluffy things like giant chickens, but considering how things had gone last time she didn't feel the need to reach out to them.
