Endless Darkness [Open 1-2 spots]

Vamon

Location: The barracks
Interacting With: Spencer

Vamon felt stomach drop for a moment as the girl spoke about her mother. Considering that they are around the same age, it was entirely possible that she had heard about his incident. He had considered slipping away before she stated that she herself was from Zalu. He let out a little sigh, making a mental note to not jump to conclusions. But he had never visited Zalu, it was a place that he thought he might pay a visit to one day, but it was fairly low on his list. There could be an interesting collection of materials there, but he did share the girl’s opinion about Astaras.

“I have heard good things about Zalu, there are a few materials from there that I would like to experiment with one day. But I have never been to Astaras, it would be rather enlightening though. Once I finish up my own personal studies, I plan on paying it a visit.” He said with a strange conviction in his voice. He had been working on a theory for a long time now, one he had been fairly close to achieving when he was banished from the city. His goal is to create synthetic Sun Shards by studying the crystals in detail. He had a few theories, but without a shard to work with it would be nearly impossible to progress. But he spanned out of his momentary distraction to see a large, well-lit building with a man standing guard at the entrance.

“Aah well that would be the barracks then wouldn’t it” Vamon said as he glanced around, making a note of the surrounding buildings. He slipped a notebook out of his pocket for a moment and scribbled a few details to remember. He let out a little chuckle as the girl spoke. “I think I will be fine from here. Thank you Spencer.” He said as he offered her a small bow. “If you ever need anything, you can find me in the inn for now. I would be happy to repay you with a meal or something” He said with a playful wink before turning and making his way to the barracks. He let out a small sigh as he walked, it had been so long since he had just spoken to someone that he had forgotten how tiring it could be. He wasn’t an antisocial person; he was more of an anti-have people discover that you are a heretic person, which made conversing a lot harder. But he decided to focus on the goal at hand and made his way through the large metal gate and into the building.

The barracks were surprisingly well kept and tidy, but it didn’t take much time searching to see where could go to sell some potions. On the ground floor there was an older man that had a collection of simple armour and weapons as well as some other supplies in one of the corners. Vamon made his way over, trying to seem as non-suspicious as he could.

“Excuse me sir, I am a traveling alchemist. I was wondering if these potions of healing might interest you, I could dilute them if you required, but I have two full strength potions if you would be interested. I would be more than happy to offer a fair price, of course.” He spoke as politely as he could. He didn’t know what kind of price people would expect in a place like this, but if anywhere could buy the potions, it would be here.

Hitchhiking Through Space

Name: Deloran Shizee

Gender: Male

Age: 26

Appearance: Deloran is a tall man, reaching around 6’3. He has tanned skin and shoulder length brown hair that he leaves tied in a short ponytail. Despite his height, he is a rather slender man, usually choosing to wear a sleek grey suit when he wants to be noticed and had at least one set of clothes for when he doesn’t (though that usually doesn’t happen).

He has short facial hair, keeping a well-groomed beard and a clean shaven moustache. He takes his appearance seriously, making sure to be as approachable and friendly as he can while maintaining a professional appearance

Skills/Abilities:
- Smooth talker
- Excellent mathematical skills
- Rather good at running away (But not quite good enough)
- Skilled at social espionage
- Skilled surgeon

Personality: Somewhat of a manipulator, Deloran is quick to help those who ask for it. But he is even quicker to ask for a favour in return. His social grace and natural composure under stress help him to breeze his way through most situations. He often keeps people at arm’s length, not getting too personally attached in case people decide to turn their backs on him. In short, he is the person who had a contingency plan for every person he meets, trusting very few people. Despite his nature, he isn’t the type to leave someone leave someone when they really are in a lot of trouble. Obviously, this is the kind of trait that can get him in a lot of trouble in the wrong situation.

Name: Sebastian Stewart (Prefers the nickname ‘Seb’)

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Religion: Athiest

Sexuality: Bisexual, open to a little bit of everything.

Occupation: ‘Professional Gambler’ – i.e. someone who spends all their time, and money, at a casino. His day job, which funds his adventures to the casino, is as a Taxi Driver.

Abilities:
Counting cards – Before he got his power he had to rely on tricks like counting cards to win in a casino. He got quite good at it, but took a break from the casino scene to avoid the broken legs he was fairly close to receiving. As a result, he is quite good at math, and running.

Confidence – Well calling this an ability is a little extreme, but he has a natural confidence that gets him through some of life’s stickier situations. He once talked his way out of an arranged marriage to a drug lord’s daughter. The only catch was that he had to transport a few questionable items into the country. A situation that he promptly talked his way through safe and sound.

Medical Knowledge – Despite his lack of interesting during his study, Sebastian was able to retain a fair bit of information. He has a good understanding of medicine, and is able to treat minor wounds. Some practice has made him rather good at fixing broken bones and gunshot wounds, even when the patient is himself.

Faults:
Compulsive liar – Sebastian has a hard time determining the truth from the lies. Often finds himself confused as he struggles to remember the facts. This, coupled with a past of substance abuse makes for a strenuous grasp on reality.

Fears – His biggest fear is falling into his lies and forgetting who he really is. His other fears include bouncers, security cameras, large dogs and being caught cheating. Especially being caught cheating.

Physicality – Sebastian is an intellectual, focusing more on matters of the mind than matters of the flesh. To phrase it in a much more accurate sense, he is not strong. He isn't very fit either, which makes his daring escapes in the face of danger even more stressful.

Enemies – Sebastian has made a good number of friends that have some influence around the city’s underground. Unfortunately, he has made a far greater number of enemies. He often avoids walking around at night if he can, and generally sticks to more populated sections of the city. He has even had to relocate once when his apartment was introduced to a few Molotov cocktails.

Gambling Addiction – Well this goes without saying, he has a rather uncontrollable compulsion to gamble away his hard money.

Power:
Lady Luck – Lady luck seems to favour some above others. In Sebastian’s case, it would seem that she was somewhat of a stalker. His power is hard to define, and even harder to directly control. He can 'imbue' items or people with 'luck' to a degree, allowing them to do very lucky, or unlucky things. For example, he can touch a deck of cards and draw all four aces in a row, or touch a gun and cause it to misfire. His power is strictly limited to physical touch though, so he often has to get creative when it comes to dealing with a confrontation. There was one situation where his phone blocked a bullet from hitting his heart, but it still came pretty close to killing him. I guess it was pretty lucky he survived.

Personality: Some might call him eccentric. Others might call him a weirdo. But if you were to ask Sebastian, he would say that he was an amazing actor. Around people he considers his true friends, he is a bubbly man that is more than happy to help with any issues. He acts like himself, and expresses his love for things like classical music and fine art, but around people that he is unfamiliar with he becomes much more calculating. He will do whatever he can to appeal to a person, pretending to like things or to dislike things. But if someone is able to see past his demeanour he acts as he usually would, a happy go lucky young man without a care in the world.

History: Sebastian had the kind of life you might read about in a PSA about the dangers of drugs. He was a bright and friendly kid with loving and respectful parents. He was brought up in a good town and went to a prestigious high school, ready to make the transition into medical school to become a doctor. But it was when he moved out of home that his life started to slip. He fell in with the wrong crowd and started to stay out all night drinking and gambling away all his money. He was able to maintain his lifestyle, but it wasn’t long until one of his ‘friends’ introduced him to something a little more intense.

He started taking any drug he could get his hands on, though his particular favourite was cocaine. He began a spiral down into addiction, hatred and despair. Fast-forward a few years, and we are met with a very different man than the bright young boy that had left to start a promising medical career. Sebastian had dropped out of medical school, cut off all contact with his parents and started living in a run-down apartment surrounded by countless drug dealers and gangsters. On the bright side, he had given up the drugs. On the not so bright side, he had developed a small case of compulsive lying. But back on the bright side, he has a job as a taxi driver. It doesn’t pay too well but it covers the necessities like rent and bills. Food is optional, but he prefers to spend his money at the casino. These days he doesn’t have any people he would consider friends, more like people he would consider useful.

Haha as a non-front liner myself, I don't think I ever want to fight her. Vamon would throw things at her and run away, soon to be cut in half without a lot of effort.
