Daggerheart: The Witherwild

Everything seems to be back to normal on my end.

I was having issues too.

@Dark Cloud

I had trouble as well… ^^”

<Snipped quote by Guardian Angel Haruki>

I don't think loreborne have sayings like orderborne do. From what I can read, sayings are part of the orderborne community feature, so they are the only ones who need to record such things.

@rush99999

Got it. I’ll get rid of that part.
Thank you for letting me know. ^_^

@Guardian Angel Haruki

Quick question, would Aurora be able to tell if these potions might have an adverse effect? I figure this might be pushing limits as she does not have a herbalism kit, posioners kit, or what not available for testing it.

@Lurking Krog

She’d have to taste a bit of the potions, but I would allow an Arcana check if she does so.

Daggerheart: The Witherwild

Complete!

Pepper Celestina Brevil

Pepper Celestina Brevil

Human Loreborne
Wizard, School of Knowledge

Background

Pepper was born to a small family. Both of her parents are very knowledgable wizards in their own right, but they are not Archmaguses themselves. Her father studied magic itself and how it works, while her mother studied astronomy. The both of them simply wanted to live a peaceful life and have a family while they contributed to Haven through their research into their respective fields of study.

Pepper originally had a twin sister, Daisy. Unfortunately, when the both of them were toddlers, they contracted the Serpent's Sickness. Pepper was able to recover, while Daisy succumbed to the petrification. The loss struck Pepper and her parents hard.

Ever since then, Pepper took her studies seriously. She was able to get into a prestigious wizard college, and graduate! The events in the school were uneventful, as her days were filled with grueling study sessions. After graduation, many wizards were expected to enter an apprenticeship before they become wizards of her own.

Pepper, unfortunately, ended up being the apprentice to Archmagus Lapin. The man was well-renowned for numerous discoveries, most of them lead to the medical advancements of Haven. What nobody knows about him is that none of those discoveries are truly his. Archmagus Lapin takes the discoveries of his apprentices and calls them his own. Despite his acts of fraud, his knowledge of magic, his ability to practically apply magic, and his charisma allows him to keep his Archmagus status, and he is able to sabotage his apprentices.

Pepper was also one such target. Her naivety, optimism, and curiosity blinded her to the Archmagus's demeanor and actions towards her. She simply followed his instructions, and as part of the natural progression, the Archmagus complained and stuck her with ordinary chores. As a result, Pepper studied more about healing magic on her own time outside of the apprenticeship. She didn't mind though, that was what she wanted to do.

Her time in the apprenticeship comes to an end, when Archmagus was asked to cure a person afflicted with the Serpent's Sickness. Pepper recognized a mistake that the Archmagus was going to make, but when she tried to speak up, he silenced her and continued the medical procedure. She didn't disobey, and as a result, the victim's petrification sped up and the victim now stands as a statue.

After that, Archmagus laid the blame of his mistake onto Pepper, and she was kicked out of the apprenticeship program. Naturally, Pepper was distraught, as that would mean the end of her wizarding career. But after a while of shock and mourning, she realizes something:

She is free to find the cure on her own!

So, with that, she resolves herself to go out to the world and find the cure to Serpent's Sickness, no matter what it takes. Her parents were concerned upon hearing this, but there was clearly no changing Pepper's mind.

Her father didn't want her to go alone. He was able to speak with a family friend and hire a Guardian to protect her on her journeys.

Class Questions
What responsibilities did your community once count on you for? How did you let them down?
I just graduated, and got into an apprenticeship with Archmagus Lapin! He was quite strict, but he knew much about healing! Unfortunately, I am a bit of klutz and he always got angry at me for bringing the wrong items to him. It’s confusing…I know I brought him and did everything he asked…

Still! I was ready to learn and meet patients! But…he decided it was best I stayed and did chores instead…to improve my motor control skills, he said…

Oh! My failure? …Right…Master Lupin documented that it was my fault that his medicine for the Serpent’s Sickness didn’t work. In fact, his medicine only made the rate of petrification increase. …I knew I should have brought him the Kakiori Herb and not the Wolfsbane he asked for…

You’ve spent your life searching for a book or object of great significance. What is it, and why is it so important to you?
Well, since I got booted from the Apprenticeship with Archmagus Lapin, I might as well figure out another cure for Serpent’s Sickness on my own then! I’ve been studying on my own, so this is another perfect opportunity!

Curing the sickness is important to me, because my sister succumbed to it…while she and I were toddlers. I don’t want anyone to suffer like that. That’s why I studied and worked so hard to be a Wizard expert in healing! I’m going to do my best!

You have a powerful rival. Who are they, and why are you so determined to defeat them?
....I have a rival? …I can’t think of anyone…

Huh? Archmagus Lapin? You think he acted out of line? Sure, he’s strict, but…

…You think he was sabotaging me during my apprenticeship? Why would he do that? I’m nowhere near Archmagus yet…

The Wild Beyond Witchlight

DM Post is up! Sorry for the wait again.

Had a busy weekend, and could only lurk a bit on my phone. ^^"

The Wild Beyond Witchlight

Elemental Plane of Air

Ishaan's Palace: Grand Hall, Right Wing

Jub can see that the macaw is helping him by beating his wings and sending gusts of wind towards the bonfire illusion, to make it seem real as it flickers and waves. Between both Jub's magic and Brutrumukk's singing, the armors stop, watch for a bit, before they immediately march back to their posts. It seems that they were letting Brutrumukk and Jub finish their performance for an unseen audience. Once the song was done, applause can be heard all around the theatre, even though the suits of armor are completely stand still at attention.

The macaw leads the way towards the door where the cats escaped and he calls to the both of them, "Nice job! We're in the clear! Now let's hurry!"

The door is open and as Jub and Brutrumukk move, they would find that the suits of armor are not moving to attack them. Should they move closer, they would see bookshelves filled with books and scrolls beyond the door. Other than that, they can't see much else until they cross the threshold.

OOC

Initiative is over! Brutrumukk and Jub can continue onwards after the two Grinning Cats!

@XxFellsingxX@rush99999

Hither

Bavlorna's Cottage: Study (B10)

Everything falls silent as the cat remains limp and lifeless on the ground, the wall remains unchanging from the current frowning face, and the three bottles in the cabinet sit there...ready for the taking should anyone want them.

For Gabriel, in this silence, he can feel that tug on his heart again. His lost item...it's so close!

Should he take a moment to close his eyes and focus on that tug, he can discern that tugging sensation a little better. If that tug was any stronger, Gabriel may fear that his heart would be ripped out of his chest and pulled....up? Towards the ceiling...

OOC

Nothing yet...

I’ll get a DM post up ASAP. Sorry for the wait. ^^”

Anyone interested in Daggerheart?

<Snipped quote by Guardian Angel Haruki>

Yeah, I like that idea!

EDIT: I'm broadly thinking of this person as someone who has been in service of some kind or another to the Empire for most of their life, and has lost someone significant to the petrification disease--so they have an axe to grind against the gods for what they see as their desire to keep the people of the world in subjugation.

@ctrlsaltdel

Nice!

Good thing my Wizard is there to try and find a cure/vaccine against the Petrification disease. XD

I do envision her becoming sort of like Ashitaka and trying to find a middle of the road solution as she learns more about the situation throughout the game.

EDIT: My Domain cards will be Book of Ava and Mending Touch
