I was going to just have the parts that were today, but then other people showed off things from the past and such. But, I kind of want to keep the details a bit more hidden, as per the nature of the game, so I'll give you something not from her point of view. Haha. Tell me if it's too much. There you go.
Location: City of Jungenbru, planet Taranese.
Date: 3rd of February, 2162.

It was a busy marketplace, in the middle of a big city. People talked loudly, cars drove by both on the ground and in the air, chatter loud as people bought their varying wares and laughed happily in the bright city. This was one of the happier places in the galaxy, far from conflict and terrifying ordeals. In among these walked a tall woman in black, an alien with white skin and black eyes, carrying a weapon on her back. But, this wasn’t unusual. Bounty hunter, perhaps, this place was filled with aliens as it was and she wasn’t one of the worst offenders. She was speaking to someone, and it was reported that she placed a hand on his forehead, since this struck those who watched as just the slightest strange.

Then the woman, in a single deft movement, reached behind her with her free hand and grabbed her halberd before swinging it in a flawless slice which cleaved the man’s throat. He died immediately and fell back as a string of blood launched into the air from the woman’s sharp blade. Multiple screams were let out around her, and people called for the police. The woman was utterly calm, despite the action she had just committed and the screams of the terrified crowd around her. Police weren’t far away, and arrived directing their weapons at her, telling her to stand down. She pushed them back and off their feet with but a motion of her hand, using psionics. They started firing. The woman deftly dodged, in a way that seemed impossible, like she knew where they’d shoot, before she closed the distance and hacked at them with her halberd.

That day, their police force was left decimated. The woman darted from officer to officer, cutting them, incapacitating them so they fell bleeding and screaming onto the ground. The ground and surroundings quickly became stained with red. When reinforcement came, they found her stained with blood and standing with her halberd raised over a sea of injured, screaming and bleeding police officers. And if that wasn’t bone-chilling enough, the woman was smiling. A creepy, pleased and ill-fit smile, as if she was proud of herself or simply enjoying the sound of the screams which surrounded her. With this, it came as no illusion to the police that they needed help. A bounty was quickly put on her head.

With the bounty that was put on her head, a chase instigated. Yet, tracking her down seemed to always end up with blood spilled all over the ground around her before she fled again. Soon enough she vanished from the planet, just as more extreme measures were being put into motion, the law enforcements lamenting their inability to defeat the threat. And this one incident… was only the beginning of what would amount to the reputation of one of the deadliest criminals in the galaxy…

Location: Chronos Station
Date: Today (19th of August, 2166?)

And here she stood. In among these soldiers in armor suitable for the age and with blaster-weapons for shooting purposes or what-have-you-not other things, stood also a tall woman in what appeared to be medieval armor with gems attached to it. Lataniva listened, her skin unnaturally white and eyes black, in her armor, spikes going a bit of everywhere from it. Here and there on the armor were gems, including one on the headband that held her long black hair directed backwards. On her back was a long halberd, with small blades on the end, strapped to her back. She might have looked strangely out-of-place.

Some here may know her reputation. If nobody else, bounty hunters should know her, for a price has long rested on her head.



She listened with a blank, almost mildly bored-looking expression as she looked at Dawson. This was information she already knew. Then, it was over to Stryker. He made it clear he had no intention of making friends. Didn’t bother Lataniva too much. She understood. For the moment, there was nothing immediate she felt like commenting on, for now she would stand and listen. For now.
@Delta44 Awww. Lonely little loner. Alright. Actually want to know more about Pureplain, huh. Almost thought I'd never get to say what's in Pureplain. Thank you for that opportunity. I know at least one of you will have use of one of the buildings it has to offer, eventually. Haha. Nicely posted~

@Eklispe

It comforted her somewhat that, as a thief, she’d eventually be caught by one of the good guys. That meant she could explain her actions and they’d likely take care of her sister. She’d… rather they didn’t force any of them to join the Wards, or the Protectorate if they were at that age, but it was a comfort that whenever that happened they’d be taken care of, one way or anoth-

‘…!’ Wisp came to a full stop, staring with wide eyes at the gang before her. It was the Rockers, she knew, but did they know? Did they KNOW who they were attacking? All of her cautious personality said that she couldn’t possibly take the chance that it was at random. Viola was in there! U-unless Viola had left on some business Wisp knew nothing about. No matter. As much as Viola could easily outrun them, she couldn’t let them continue! They might see her real identity!

Wisp gently put down the box behind the corner she just passed, and turned to them. She’d remain invisible through the use of her power throughout this encounter, as always. She gathered light behind her, starting to charge for a blast if needed, and would keep charging it even as she did the rest. There was a sense of urgency that she had rarely felt before. This time was personal. While normally she moved slowly to avoid being heard, she was way too desperate to stop them quickly this time.

She dashed forward, and taking care not to run into any of their attacks at the door, she got as close to them as she could while also moving by them. Her thick socks would ensure that her run made a minimal amount of sound, but the sound of texture pressed against floor might still be heard by the observant. If successful, for the brief moment of a second they’d see a flash of light across their vision, the illusion of a white wall of flame between them and the door. A text in black threatening flame within the fire read a word of warning.

She then ran on past them, no intention of staying within a meter of such people for any lengthy period of time. The flames of their illusion fanned out into nothingness as she passed them, and she came to a stop on the other side of them, assuming her attempt had been successful. Of course, it had been but a bright illusion, nothing that could hurt them other than leave the annoying mark in one’s vision one gets from having stared directly at a bright light. But, Wisp would fish up a laser-pointer… She could make it worse if they persisted.
... Oh, dear. Alright. Time to act.
@Pyromaniacwolf Nicely posted. Yupp, let's get this journey under way. After I've waited just a little longer on some more than should be allowed to post, but otherwise, enough of you have posted to warrant replies. Haha.
@Pink Madness Alright. ... I will note that Cherubi's other move is also really useful at this level, but eh! That's not important! Haha. And, I did still intend that the tactics will need to be written alongside an IC-post. That way, someone just reading through the IC won't get lost when a battle just suddenly concludes out of nowhere. Haha.
@Metronome ... Huh. And here I was just going to post three paragraphs of Lataniva just standing there listening, and you post... that. Hum. Maybe I should revise. XD

in case unclear, this is a joke, people can post what they like, I assume. XD
@Eklispe I did an awful lot of planning to ensure I was ready by the time I actually started to run this. Can't let my players down, now, can I?

@Joshua Tamashii Pfffth, haha. Noted.
@Pikmin Eye And your parts has been updated with the new information. Go at it.
