@Amaterasu Looks fine to me. Just some small changes, or just one. The buffs should be 1.5x, as you have Crescendo, which would make 2x pretty OP, also considering it affects all allies close enough, but considering it's song the range is still decently far.

As the room lit up with holy light, there was a particular tension in the air as magical fire rained upon the charging Rui and Akane. Kotori casting Salvation was doing it's work as the two were able to keep pushing on despite all the grazes and glancing blows, but as long as they didn't take a direct hit they wouldn't be stopped.
Eventually the fire spells became immense, shrouding Rui and Akane from vision, but after a few moments, the flames dissipated, and Akane was visible, plunging her sword into the shadow's chest. The shadow shrieked in rage before going to grab Akane, all four arms moving to clasp around Akane, but two shadowy figures and four silver flashes came down from above as the arms were cut, misty blackness spewing from the slashes as both Rui and his Persona Askr landed.
"Now! Do it!", Akane leapt off from the shadow as Rui made his order, before Katsuro and Kotori let off a volley of spells, finishing the shadow off in a flashy display of magical power. Within moments the shadow crumpled, it's body breaking away into black mist before it reverted to it's human form.
Shizuka was in rough shape as she slid across the ground, but she wasn't completely out. Considering how much she was struggling to get up, she didn't have much left in her, but fortunately neither did the demon. Another round of magic blasted the Oni, repeated strikes of magic chipped away mirror shards with each strike, before the Garudyne blasted whole chunks of the Oni away in a single hit. Everyone was about to let off another volley of magic, but that didn't seem to be necessary.
The Oni began to simply collapse and shatter into mirror shards, dissipating into a vortex. As that happened, everyone was given glimpses of something... They witnesses what looked like the perspective of a man with his wife, long black hair and a warm expression. Kami seemed to recognize it to some degree... But where...? It was all a bit too unclear like the memory was a corrupted tape.
As soon as that had transpired, the village they stood in began to light up a bit.
"Huh? You beat it and... now this area. How to put it, it's 'safe' now. Shadows that were lurking nearby seem to be simply running away",
"I see... I guess this makes for a good forward base. We'll head back, we're done here for now, hopefully Rui's finished on his end too", and with that, it was agreed they would head back.
Hyrule Castle City, Inner Wall District
Morning
The entire square was being used for the tournament, there were two stages, Stage A and Stage B, one on each side of the fountain in the middle, with a statue depicting the Goddess Hylia. Looking at it from the front with Hyrule Castle behind the fountain, the stages were set on the left and right side, while an announcement platform was set up against the fountain, with a bigger balcony on the front where a majority of the crowds would gather. Currently everyone's attention was focused on that announcement platform.
"Welcome Hylians and all, to the first set of the Hyrule Combat Tournament! Today here in Hyrule Castle City the jewel capital of the kingdom itself, we will find out who is the strongest warrior within the region of Hylia! That's right, the strongest in this region! But we won't be stopping there, after this we'll find out the strongest in Eldin, Faron, Lanayru, Gerudo, Akkala, and even Snowpeak! And when that is all said and done, we'll return here again for the Grand Finals! Featuring the strongest from every region to find out Who. Is. The Strongest. IN ALL OF HYRULE!", the crowd's cheers were deafening as the MC introduced the tournament to everyone. It was roughly the same every year though, but the energy never waned regardless.
"Rrrright now our contestants are getting up on stage! From now to two clicks past noon, we will be running qualifying matches! We have a lot of contestants so this time around we're running this tournament in two sets. The Preliminaries, where all the contestants will be matched against each other in a rapid elimination to narrow down for our notorious Eliminations round. Yes the one you've all been waiting for! The Eliminations will be done in a traditional tournament fashion where contestants are pitted against one another, fighting to climb to the top!", the crowd cheered once more, but ended rather quickly as he continued.
"Throughout the Preliminaries however, new contestants are allowed to sign up, however do not be too late, otherwise we may have to reject your entry because it'd simply be too late. I will return to announce the Eliminations when they start, so everyone, please enjoy this year's entrants, look at them, size them up, and place your bets when you feel confident in a certain fighter!", and with that, the flashy-coated man left the stage, letting festivities resume.
Sure enough, anyone who registered was walking towards any of the two stages. It was as said, the organizers would tell who was up, and then the two would briefly fight. Considering these were just preliminaries, it became quite apparent who was going to make it to the Eliminations, as those contestants defeated their opposition with little trouble, if not effortlessly.
Hyrule Castle City, Inner Wall District Guard Station
Morning
@Sen
"Huh? We didn't hear anything about-... Hmmm", the guard captain took a moment as if considering. Sure enough the attire that the Zora wore was that of the guards in Zora's Domain, but that wasn't his concern right now. The Zora was offering to help. He straightened up over the table and stepped out from the counter.
"Alright, yes you're right, we're stretched pretty thin and could use all the help we can get. Times are tough since the Cult of Ganon began to become popular again as of late, so the Templars are out witch hunting rather than focusing their efforts here in the city, so it's become easier for criminals to move around", he began.
"I'm not sure what it's like in Zora's Domain, and by protocol I'm not even supposed to let you help us as we're meant to treat you like civilians, but if anyone asks it'll be 'international cooperation', and you're also from the guard in Zora's Domain right? I hope that's true because that'd make the excuse easier", the guard captain seemed an easygoing guy, though he kept a firm stance. He reached over behind the counter and grabbed a few papers and began reading.
"So... Basically we got a lead. Big operation is going down today, seems they're also all meeting up to review their plan. We only know this because one of their rats were squeezed hard enough to speak. We don't know where though, only their leaders know. We only know of two leaders, 'Gaunt Grant' and 'Sewer Steve', I'm not sure who comes up with these names but they sound like really terrible superheroes. I have dossiers on them, but I can't give them to you. I'll ask someone to get the documents out and you can read them over on the table there", he said, clicking his fingers as a guard standing by at the door behind him entered what seemed to be the room with all the files. Shortly after he emerged with very few files.
"See to them as you like. We don't actually have much on them, so take in what information you can", and with that the guard captain went back to his seat by the counter, reviewing some other documents. As Nikou would pass it seems like the standard permissions and complaints, as well as patrol routes and reports.
As Nikou would peruse through the documents, the most information came up for Gaunt Grant. The guy was old so this was natural, more or less it was more suspected involvement, but there's a lot of evidence that suggests he is in the smuggling ring. The more solid lead though is Sewer Steve. The note says that the one they interrogated on this was one of his underlings too... All the interrogation details are here, but nothing points to a location. Looks like he might have to do some hunting. His name is 'Sewer Steve', so maybe his nickname is related...? As for Gaunt Grant, he seemed a little untouchable right now, no tells of his location or what he did.
"LIIIIIEEES! I saw her die, that's just not possible!", even though the Broodmother had said that, she seemed to doubt those words even a little bit. After all, to an underling that treated Silitha like a god, it was entirely possible. Still while it was getting to her, it only agitated her further, using her giant legs to crush the area where the Nephilim stood in an attempt to attack, before flinging some more webbing. The Broodlings simply crowded up and gave chase.
"Silitha is no more and I now take her place! You Nephilim scum will pay!"
As the skirmish raged around them, their sprint towards the artifact was littered with the crossfire of the fight, whether it was angels firing, or both parties' colossal weapons destroying the place. It was destructive enough to make an archaeologist cry. Regardless, they had the opportunity to go for their goal. Upon reaching it, the battle began to favor the angels, the Army of Light soldiers, though they lost one, had banded together in formation and easily took out the Hideous, while the Champion continued to fight the Hatred.
As Akoni attempted to make a warp gate to grab the artifact from afar, the magic was immediately blocked. That power radiating from the orb... It was preventing him from being able to use his gate, but it wasn't like it erased it or anything, it was more like... It was so dense that no other magic could occupy the space around it. They'll have to actually pick it up by hand.
"Cease at once humans! Or we WILL cut you down!" he managed, before blocking yet another assault from the demon.
As Lily's disguise was blown, the lesser angels seemed ready to jump, weapons at the ready. As her true form came to light, one of the angels recognized her from before.
"I-It's her! There must be more of them, she wasn't alone", great, there seemed to be no use in keeping Fenn and Souta hidden now, though they weren't seen just yet, so maybe there is some advantage to be had here. The air tensed as the angels kept their hands on the trigger, it seems as part of training they immediately now take orders from the commanding angel present, this being Zarrath. Fight or let it slide for now? The choice was up to Zarrath, or Lily should she simply decide to attack, but considering the information they gleamed, there is no point in fighting them now.
"Th-there were two others... Demon, where are they?! I know they're with you, hiding around here somewhere!" in a panic the lesser angel was the one making demands. There were roughly five Army of Light soldiers here, three of which came from the vanguard that Lily, Fenn and Souta slaughtered earlier, the other two were posted here as guards.
As Blair sneaked around, being fairly deep in the Angel side of territory, beside her was the demon, Madamma Enepsigos, though thanks to her they can basically take a stroll in this side of the woods.
"Hmmmm, if this place wasn't teeming with demons and angels, I'd be rather happy making this a holiday retreat, wouldn't you agree?"
"Well, in any case I can consider that later once all it's current occupants are evicted. I've caught wind of something a bit interesting", she began. That's right, her control of the area around them lets her receive information too, allowing her to eavesdrop without much difficulty.
"The angels appear to be looking for 'keys' to a door of some kind, apparently there are three keys. Looks like they already have one of them, found the location of one, and the third one they have a lead on, but some spider demons are clogging the way. As commander of this op, it'll be up to you what to do", she informed. There were two obvious choices for Blair right now... Wait and hide at the door and strike once they have all three keys, or find the other two keys and force her way in for the third which is likely under guard. Either way, it seemed many forces were on the move in this forest, things were volatile but they can still move freely, as not even demons can notice her thanks to Enepsigos' skills.
@FlitterFaux In all honesty play what you think is most fun.
@Sen I'm gonna update because so many posts. Plus he needs to give you your assignment so yeah.

I guess I'll start projections on who's going to become the core playerbase now.
It actually all looks good, but you'll need some more elaborated interaction with the Koroks of the Lost Woods in your backstory for Korok Magic.
And one last problem, your race trait for Deku Scrub is missing. Korok Magic even in description says it isn't a race trait. Below is the Deku Scrub trait.
Bloom: As a Deku Scrub you can hide underground in a stationary position as a flower, and pop up to shoot, or eject oneself into the air and fly using the leaves on your head. You also have the ability to jump on water. Deku Scrubs are unless underground, vulnerable to fire, though fire will still prompt you to get out of the ground. As a natural talent they can shoot seeds out of their barrel-like noses for 1 heart of damage.
You can fit it in any way you please, as long as it's within the limitations of the system, as all your skills look okay to me.

Hyrule Castle City, Inner Wall District
Morning
There was a jubilant energy in the air in Hyrule Castle City. Even in the wake of recent murders, many people still go on about their daily lives, making the best they can. The Inner Wall District kept it's cobblestone streets clean as guards patrolled every corner, but there was a smile on their faces, not a glum and gloomy enforcer of the law. Here, it seemed everyone was friends. However this atmosphere in the city was not the result of a utopian society of any kind, today was an annual event that Hylians, Gorons, Zoras, Rito and Gerudo and even marginalized minorities of the kingdom enjoyed, because it was the one even where despite any background, only one thing mattered. Martial skill.
It was time for the annual Hyrule Kingdom Combat Tournament, to determine who was the best warrior in the land that year. The banners strung up all over the Inner Wall District as well as food stalls set up were tells that this event was no mere tournament to those who would not participate. It was a festival. One where people can come together and make merry over food and drink and entertainment.
There was a line of people signing up for the tournament this fine morning, it seems throughout until lunch, they were going to run rapid eliminations to narrow down contestants for the main events between the best out of the selection. There seemed to be a lot of promising contestants this year, among them was a Goron, strapped to his hands is what appeared to be nothing but scrap, a Gerudo in black dancer gear with a giant scimitar strapped to her back, a towering man, based on his attire and weapon, he was a Highlander, and finally a Rito warrior, he had a bow strapped to his back, and a short sword at his side.
Meanwhile not far from there...
The Guard Outpost in the square, the largest in the city had a few guards being dispatched, as soon as another set had returned, they were dispatched again immediately. It seems they were a bit more antsy they usual...
"Ugh... Of all the times for us to get busy... I just wanna watch and enjoy the tournament",
"Yeah, but that smuggling ring's definitely going to take advantage of these crowds. We can't let illegal goods circulate freely, the stuff's banned for a reason you know",
"Y-yeah I know, gotcha captain... But still...",
"Yeah I know, but if the day goes well we're getting a bonus, so that means we go drinking tonight eh?"
"Well that makes me feel a bit better... Well, I guess I'll head out then", the guards waved goodbye as the patrol went on their way. The Captain though was looking at the sheets, between the guards needed at the murder site and the increased patrol in the square, they were still short on hands... In fact if they weren't so occupied, some extra hands to go on the offensive on the smuggling ring would be great too...
"Ugh... If only...", he sighed.
Inner Wall District, Cordoned House
"The exact same patterns, and method too, the wounds match the weapon type, a crude bladed weapon. Missing organs, and... Very clean, not a lot of blood, meaning two things. Victim was not awake at time, and whoever did the deep, despite the crude cuts, is very careful...", the golden haired and green garbed knight standing in the mostly untouched bedroom, stood over a corpse he was just describing. Like the others, a young woman also, but he chose not to note that as it was normal.
"Autopsy from the Fountain Knight Scholars tells me this is all related to a dark ritual... Hmmmmm...", Linwood was always a rather proactive individual, but he was a bit stumped on what to do here. He had some leads to follow, but duties at the castle called for him, it wasn't something he could simply ignore either, it was an order from the King himself. Which was why he was waiting here. He got some people assigned and believed it would be quicker to brief them once they got here.
"I hope they come soon... The King is friendly, but I shouldn't stretch his patience...", he sighed.
Lon Lon Ranch
Morning
"Okay Ingo, I will send you the supplies as needed. It's been good you could visit us", the hefty man in the rancher attire was speaking to what appeared to be his opposite, a lanky rancher that towered over him, but not quite the width. He was identified as Ingo. The two stood outside the Lon Lon Ranch's residence house which belonged to Talon and his daughter, the fields on this elevated plot of land were rich, the horses galloped happily on the grass, and some part timers were tending to some of the horses too. There were even some knights here looking to obtain their first horse it seemed.
"Hmph. Of course Talon, I'll make the Akkala branch even greater than this one, mark my words, the horses found in Faron are some of the finest", he had lofty ideals, but one could not help there was more he wanted to say about this matter.
"Also, good luck finding that horse thief of yours. I swear I looked at the stables too as you asked, and there was not a single clue of any break in... Almost as if they'd just disappeared", it had to have been either someone incredibly skilled, or magic. Regardless, after farewells, Ingo was on his way. Soon as he left, the door to the residence opened, walking out was a young beauty, Talon's daughter Malon.
"Oh was that Ingo?",
"Yes it was. He needed some supplies for repairing fences and building more facilities",
"That's the third time he's requisitioned extra supplies though... It must be the highlanders over in Akkala isn't it...? Oh well, no matter... I'll be going to the stable. I'm sure I'll find something on the missing horses there", she seemed quite sure of herself. Even though there was no visual evidence, she was still quite confident... Woman's intuition? Well regardless, Talon had a busy day ahead.
Ordon Village
Morning
"H-hey! Quit it! I'm trapped up here with you too you know!"
"Well maybe if you weren't such a spineless knight you wouldn't be up here too!"
"W-well! I'm just not good with dogs. That's all! Anything else I'm fine, be it dodongo, moblin or- Gah!", the green garbed knight flinched as one of the wolves jumped a bit higher than he expected. Right beside him was a Korok also shivering and holding onto him for dear life. It seems they were in a bit of a tight situation...
"Ah geez, I shouldn't have made camp... But everyone in Ordon is a little suspicious of me",
"I mean to be fair you were here for a very long time, that alone is suspiciouooouuusususs! N-nevermind that's none of my business. Someone help!", the Korok stuttered and halted it's reprimand as another wolf leaped just a few inches too close.
We're all used to using Skype though. I was thinking we should migrate there eventually...
@Darkmoon Angel Unfortunately she wouldn't get any details to investigate it, because she doesn't have that kind of authority, but the questline becomes open to everyone else after not long, you just tag along with it's current investigators.
