Re: Zero: The High Council

Grisaia Vertti

Grisaia Vertti

19 | Cismale | 115 lbs | 5' 7" (excluding ears)
Fuma_Wind | Native | Rabbit Demi-Human

Description
Main servant to the Vertti household and known for forming a contract with two full Spirits, Grisaia is a rabbit Demi-Human who's stone clad face and overall polite personality hide years of neglect and trauma under it.

Appearance Description
Grisaia is a lanky young man with short faded blonde hair, pale crystal colored eyes and almost porcelain skin. Being a loyal and one of the best servants that belong to the Vertti family Grisaia is almost dressed in a white long sleeved button up collared shirt with a wine red sleeveless tailcoat over top it. He normally wears light brown slacks short enough to expose some of his shins as well as his striped socks. He also wears reddish brown boots, especially when going out to run errands. As a Demi-Human, Grisaia sports a poofy white rabbit tail and long white rabbit ears that move depending on his emotions.

Personality
Grisaia is almost exactly what you'd expect a servant to act like. He's extremely dedicated to his work and upholds a strong sense of duty to his household. He faithfully follows and carries out every one of the Vertti's orders, while ensuring that the other servants around him run smoothly. He's extremely polite despite his face being rather stone clad and entirely stoic. Being a servant, Grisaia's true emotions for the things around him are strongly filtered out, so when he does go outside of the Vertti household, he can be a little dense and often oblivious to even his own emotions; his mind would say one thing, and his mouth the other. There are those rare moments were he's able to fully express himself and speak what's truly on his mind, but it only seems to happen with people outside of his work or that he's gotten to know really well; for example, his two spirit companions.

Hopefully if one gets to know Grisaia better, they'd realize he's just a normal, friendly guy, who has a hard time speaking what's truly on his mind due to past experiences.

Class
Jack-Of-All-Trades (with Summoner tendencies): Grisaia fights much like how a Summoner would fight in the Final Fantasy Series, or The Bravely Default Series to be more specific. He relies on his Divine Protection to build mana before expending it on his contracted Spirits or vice versa. Without his Divine Protection, he'd probably be akin to a glass cannon. He can heal with Adhara, attack/defend with Anubis, and defend/attack on his own, but he'll never be as strong as someone who has mastered any of these skills.

Bio

-

Grisaia was born into the world along with his older twin brother Florenz within the slums of Gusteko. Knowing that they wouldn't be able to take care of two children in such terrible conditions, both his mother and father decided to abandon him in favor of taking care of a single child; it wasn't like either of them were even old enough to understand what was going on, so that lessened the pain of it all right? Probably for Florenz who still had a family. Grisaia on the other hand was taken in by a group of slumfolk who found him alone and wrapped in a little blanket.

Gusteko was already a cold kingdom so the fact that Grisaia was able to survive for who knows how long before he was finally found was quite a miracle. Even the people than found him was a miracle for Grisaia, as said people made it their job to take care of the lost and abandoned children that made their way into the slums in the first place. It was in their care that Grisaia slowly began to learn about himself and the blessing bestowed upon him.

Although his days in the slums were hard and strenuous, Grisaia felt like he belonged and was actually happy with his life and once he's old enough, he hopes to find his parents and reunite with them. He was optimistic. Unfortunately, the world didn't seem to want Grisaia to find his family and let them know that he's still out there. At the mere age of six, all hell broke loose and the war came into fruition. At first, Grisaia felt that he and the other kids would be fine since they wouldn't feel the need to bring fighting to their raggedy home, but low and behold, Grisaia and all the other Demi-Human children were plucked away from their foster family to train and participate in said war; he was being forced to fight for the Demi-Humans.

To say that Grisaia would never be prepared to fight in the war was a complete understatement as the undernourishment of being abandoned as soon as he came into the world coupled with his naturally scrawny body meant he wouldn't be of much use. At least, that was what was originally thought until Grisaia was forced to use his Divine Protection and destructive Wind magic to deflect a blast coming straight at him during training.

Upon uncovering this amazing power and potential magical prowess that could used for their sake, Grisaia, who was only about ten years old by that time, was put into the front lines as the 'perfect shield'. The physical and mental strain of putting thousands upon thousands of elemental barriers up to protect those who wanted it as well as watching people his kind and alike losing their lives right in front of him, followed by the constant, almost never ending beatings he received whenever one of his barriers broke during training, had Grisaia to the point of wanting to take his own life and end it all.

But he couldn't. Doing that meant that he couldn't go back to his family, Doing that meant more people would get hurt and die. Doing that would mean that everything was over and Grisaia didn't want that. He probably looked miserable in battle too, as during one fateful day, Grisaia was kidnapped by the enemy side, a house that went by the name of Vertti. The traumatized boy wasn't scared in the slightest as he wasn't tied up, or attacked, or anything really. Instead the humans of the Vertti household offered him a place he could call his new home. A place within Lugnica. It was here that he learned how to become an extremely loyal and trusting servant to the people that took him off the battlefield and to a place where he could somehow be happy. He was only fourteen by that time.

A year passed with living with the Vertti's and that's when he came into contact with the the Spirit Adhara, who was draw by Grisaia's divine protection, acting as a shield for him. The two hit it off pretty well and eventually formed a contract together so that she wouldn't have to keep following him around like a lovesick puppy. Next came Anubis, who Adhara sought out to join Grisaia's ranks. To this day, he dtill doesn't know what Adhara chose Anubis, but a friendship had grown between the two, strong enough to hand any adversity, and that's all that mattered.

TLDR; Grisaia was abandoned by birth and taken in by a group of 'slum-dwellers' soon after. Life was alright until Grisaia turned six and was taken away to be conditioned for the war. Upon learning his force field capabilities, the Demi-Humans threw him into the horrors of war and wasn't saved from it until he turned 14 when he was kidnapped by the Vertti's. The Vertti family instead put his magical prowess to better use and made him a servant to the house. He rose up the ranks and eventually became the main servant, meeting Adhara and then Anubis soon after because of his mana capabilities.

Magic
Life energy: D+ / Flow: A-
(Spirit Magic)

Abstract Magics
Divine Protection: Spirit Shield -- Due to Grisaia's strong affinity with other Spirits, his Divine Protection, properly named Spirit Shield, allows Grisaia to call upon very small non-contracted Spirits of any affinity he chooses so long as they are used for protection purposes to ultimately shield him and others when needed. He can only pull up to 2 shields at a time with normal circumstances, but he has the ability to erect more if pushed to his limits. This often leads to terrible side effects like minor headaches to losing consciousness if the initial strain was too much.

Spirit: Adhara -- A Water affinity full spirit who made a contract with Grisaia. Performs Water based attacks of various states and healing magic. She can be given orders and leave from Grisaia's side easily.

Spirit: Anubis -- A Earth affinity full spirit who made a contract with Grisaia. Performs Earth crumbling attacks. He can be given orders and leave from Grisaia's side easily much like Adhara can.

Meteor: Clockwork Compass -- A Meteor given to him by Mistress Vertti that is tethered directly to her necklace. Serves as a clock in most cases, Grisaia is able to track down the necklace if it were to ever get too far away from a given radius.

Eiko Tachibana

Eiko Tachibana

16 | Cisfemale | 97 lbs | 5' 1"
Yang_Jiwald | Native | Dove Demi-Human

Description
A mature young lass with Dove wings strapped to her back and clothing akin to the spirits, Eiko is a friendly girl you wouldn't want on your bad side.

Appearance Description
Eiko's a fairly short girl with short brown hair, bright emerald eyes and fair skin. Pale white dove wings sprout from her back, but can be tucked in to feign the appearance of being entirely Human. Because Spirits are naturally attracted to her and she sees them on a regular basis, Eiko loves to dress up and emulate said Spirits by making the clothing herself. Whether it's primary for battling, to working at the Religious district, attending a sacred ceremony, to just taking a normal stroll in the rain, Eiko's got something different and interesting to wear, with each outfit emulating a Spirit of some sort. Despite frequently changing her clothing, Eiko always has on her person a slim pink staff and a mini white grimoire with golden clasps on them.

Personality
Eiko is an extremely sweet and surprisingly mature girl for her age. She's often all over the place when it comes to explanations, and tends to get angry at herself for very petty reasons. This usually makes her comes across as naïve, clumsy, dense and clueless in the process, but that's far from the truth. Eiko's rather optimistic and trustworthy, which normally makes her automatically friendly with everybody, but once someone gets on her nerves, expect to be blacklisted for life. Eiko, once you've seen it, it practically known for her very vicious temper. While she's often seen getting a bit upset at her ramblings, it's almost nothing compared to how she is when she's angry. Almost like a Two-Face situation, Eiko could be the sweetest and most mature person in the world if she likes you, and a vulgar demon spawn from Hell if you get her angry. Regardless of this, Eiko tries to give everyone a chance, but once you've lost that luxury, expect every interaction with her afterwards to be slow and painful; unless you're into masochism...that's okay too I guess. Oh, and uh, just because her outward appearance might seem entirely good, she isn't afraid to work with shady people if it ensures the well being of her Spirit friends.

Class
Valkyrie-Dragoon Hybrid: Two other classes from the Bravely Default and Final Fantasy Series. Eiko essentially fights like the both of them would, even implementing the 'Jump mechanic' from them, using her dove wings to hover in the air for a moment. She's known for hopping to and fro, launching sharp cards at far range and utilizing her multiform staff for close range endeavors. She never uses magic unless it's to protect herself from unnecessary blows.

Bio
Eiko is probably as normal as normal can get in such a magical world. Being born a Dove Demi-Human, as she grew up, she was often used in religious ceremonies and even weddings too because of her pristine look. Most wouldn't believe that she actually grew up in the poorer districts, with all the money she got from helping out. Having no say and being a minor working in the Religious District wherever she was needed, Eiko quickly fell in love with dressing up and wearing clothing that she could use to express herself. However with the war and everything, she was never able to show her beautiful clothing to the world as much as she would like to, which lead to her slow but steady interaction with the Spirits in the environment who were naturally attracted to her.

She still spends her days, helping out where she's needed, in the Royal Districts, in order to acquire enough money for her mother and also interact with and learn from the Spirits who always give her a new idea in terms of something new she can wear.

Magics
Life energy: D / Flow: E-

Abstract Magics
None at the moment, and she probably won't ever have one, although she is very friendly with Spirits.

Themes

Eiko's weapon of choice is the slim pink staff she always has on her. It has the ability to change into two other weapons whenever Eiko prompts it to do so; that being a lance (Dragoon/Valkyrie Form) and a hammer (Heavy/Guard Form). These two different modes do nothing aside from change the weapon (no magical properties are added. Inside of her grimoire, Eiko carries around razor sharp throwing cards, again with no other significant magical properties. The only time Eiko uses magic is to protect her body if she falls and add an extra punch to her attacks.

All Relationships

Aer Pacifica

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- A bit more touchy then he would like, Grisaia does like how she's a leader of sorts, as he's best known for following orders then really making them. Finds her rather endearing when drunk, and pities her early life. If he ever found out that she was an elf, he would be more amazed then anything else. "So long as she isn't stealing from the Mistress nor touching me inappropriately, she's acceptable in my book. I can't hate anyone that so small either so..."

Anubis -- Anubis doesn't really care about Aer. Seeing that Grisaia doesn't mind her, he doesn't as well. Although her very red appearance can hurt his eyes sometimes. "..."

Adhara -- Now, Adhara could care less about what Grisaia thinks and is more worried about his well being then anything else. Off the bat, it would be safe to say that Adhara wouldn't really like Aer all that much. Her personality makes her want to puke, and if she found out that Aer was an elf, she'd be pretty defensive, to outright disrespectful about it. "I don't know, there's just something about her I don't like. She'd better not get in Saia's way or she'll be hearing from me!"

Eiko Tachibana -- Eiko knows quite a bit about most of the inhabitants of Lugnica, so she's at least heard of Aer before. And like everyone, Eiko would definitely enjoy her company and think she's a nice lady. "Ms. Pacifica seems very nice! I pray for her safety within her endeavors and wish her a profitable future!"

Nobuhiro Nishioka

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- Grisaia would probably look up to Nobuhiro almost, since he can separate his real life from his line of work. With Nobuhiro being what's essentially an evade tank, Saia would love to be on his side in battles, as it meant he could fully work as a Summoner, dishing out attacks while the other pulled the aggro towards himself. A powerful dude Grisaia wouldn't look down on figuratively and literally. "In a way, he's what I aspire to be. Someone who can separate themselves from their profession. Someone with a 'life', I guess. I'd definitely learn a lot from him whenever I can."

Anubis -- Doesn't have much of an opinion on this guy. He seems interesting, but that's about it. He's interested in the way the other fights and would like to learn, but due to the muzzle on his mouth, he can't exactly do so via speaking with him. Would possibly like to be friends with him. "...(✿◠‿◠)"

Adhara -- Finds Nobuhiro attractive in both a battle sense and his actual looks. Could definitely see his personality meshing alright with Grisaia's which is an automatic plus for her. "Nobuhiro...I'll just call him Hiro. Never seen him around these parts, but he definitely sticks out."

Eiko Tachibana -- As someone who also gives her all in any situation she finds herself in, Eiko would be very fond of Nobuhiro and enjoy his company in almost any setting. Very possible they could be friends despite the age difference. "Mr. Nishioka looks so cool! I would never think he's a brawler! Punching things sound kinda painful, so I'll stick with my staff, thank you very much!"

Chieko Okawa

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- He'd be alright with Chieko, bordering on to slight annoyance with her. Her confidence can be a good thing in the right situation, but Grisaia feels like it can be a bit too much even in a situation like that. There's the possibility of being friends, as Chieko having a nice side is definitely more desirable in Grisaia's eyes. "I don't think I'd understand what she's talking about most of the time, and her confidence drowns out a lot potential to get to know each other, but we could be friends if the circumstances fit."

Anubis -- If Grisaia has a chance of not understanding what she's saying, Anubis would be a lost cause. He wouldn't not like her or anything, but would definitely stray away because she of it. "(。・_・。)..."

Adhara -- Would definitely see Chieko as an annoyance more than anything else. Yeah she's apparently nice once one gets past her cold exterior, but Adhara wouldn't really care. First impressions are important to Adhara. "Two words: Fucking. Weirdo."

Eiko Tachibana -- Wouldn't be fast friends, but acquaintances at least. Eiko would normally be confused about how she's able to wear so many layers when it's hot out and would try to make clothes for her if their friendship ever got that far. "Ms. Okawa seems a little scary, but I think we can get past it after some time. Her caring persona reminds me of the work I do in the religious district!"

Mie Yukima

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- "Probaly the closest person to me, other than the Mistress and my Spirits. I guess we're friends? I'm not quite sure honestly. She can be really mean sometimes, but I like her regardless. She's a superb merchant to where I know I'll get my money's worth."

Anubis -- "●︿●"

Adhara -- "Eh, I don't really talk to her all that much. She's more of Saia's buddy then anything."

Eiko Tachibana -- She'd probably a little nervous around Mie in fear of the response she might get. However the moment she gets said response, Eiko would immediately treat her same. She wouldn't black list her or anything, but try to at least play her game. "A-Ah...Ms. Yukima is, uh...a special flower in the garden of Lugnica. She can be a bit of a fox, but she's alright, I think!"

Grisaia Vertti

At A Glance (CS)

Anubis -- "(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ"

Adhara -- "Of course I love the kid. He's been through a lot and it's simply my job to make sure he doesn't go through anything like that ever again. I protect him like he's my own child, so mess with him and I'll be sure to fuck you up, got it?"

Eiko Tachibana -- "Oh, I've seen Mr. Grisaia roaming the districts often! Whenever we run into each other, he's spends some time to talk with me because taking his leave. I want to say we're friends, but sometimes he can be really dense and closed off, so I'm not sure. I pray for his well being every chance I get!"

Adhara

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- "Sh-She's, uh, fun. We're friends. Family. Anything you can really think of. It's a little hard to put into words, really. But she knows I love her."

Anubis -- "(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ "

Eiko Tachibana -- "Oh, the Full Water Spirit Adhara! I know of her! Some of the other Spirits talk about her a lot. They say she can be scary, but has a really big soft spot for three specific things/ I have yet to actually making something based off of her clothing, but I feel like it'll hurt too even try, heh heh."

Anubis

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- "Even though he can't actually talk, I get him at a very spiritual level. Much like Adhara, I can't really put it into words. They're both like extensions of myself, or like siblings if that makes sense. I don't know, I feel like I'm rambling at this point..."

Adhara -- "...My best friend. He's different, yeah, but that's what makes him cool. Like I am to him, he's my Euphoria, and so is Saia. Like a band of goofballs!"

Eiko Tachibana -- "The Full Earth Spirit Anubis! I could never replicate that muzzle his has on his mouth, but I'd love to get to know more about him. He looks scary, but seems very tame! I'll dress up like him one day, just you wait!"

Eiko Tachibana

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- "Nice girl with a good head on her shoulders. We talk often and she's really friendly. She's easy to talk to and never forces me into a conversation, making me want to talk to her more. I might invite her to the household one day."

Anubis -- "◕3◕"

Adhara -- "Cute kid. If she wants to dress like me, I won't stop her. Some of the other lesser Spirits say that her dressing up like you means that you've really made it big, so I'm interested, sure."

Hilda Gunnarsson

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- They would probably get along, especially with how they look at people who are suspicious. There'd definitely be a disconnect when it comes to empathetic topics, but overall, its very possible they could become friends. "Hilda is the type of person I'd like to talk the most. We're the same age too, so I'm more comfortable talking to her. She is a Human, but I can easily see past that for her personality."

Anubis -- They share the same affinity, so Anubis would be attached to Hilda in some way by that. He'd want to show her the ropes if they ever got the chance to meet. "(✿◠‿◠)"

Adhara -- Adhara wouldn't have any problems with Hilda, but probably wouldn't be able to talk to her out of awkwardness. She'll be friendly with her, unless she does something stupid. "Yeah, she's okay I guess? Not someone I would hang out with, but I wouldn't be mean to her because of it so...yeah."

Eiko Tachibana -- Eiko would be completely infatuated by Hilda's clothing style and her bag of miscellaneous items, wanting to get tips and maybe even make something for her as a present. They'd probably best friends if they had the time to talk. "Bis sis Hilda! She's so cool! I can't wait to learn a lot from her!"

Alistair Archibald

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- Grisaia would be very understanding towards Alstair's behavior, but that wouldn't mean that he would like 100%. Alistair would easily earn his trust, but Grisaia would never want to rely on him too much. "He's alright, but I'd be nervous to do anything around him in fear of being judged and looked at like...back in the day."

Anubis -- Wouldn't even bother trying to get to know this guy. "o(╥﹏╥)o"

Adhara -- Adhara would like Alistair for what he stands for and even as a person since they have similar tendencies. She'd respect him for how hard he works and would even been willing to help him with magic should the situation come. "He's got a good head on his shoulders. some people just can't see that. But's it's whatever, their loss..."

Eiko Tachibana -- Eiko'd be scared upon first encounter, but if she ever got to know the man better, she's be less nervous around him. Would focus mostly on trying not to step on his toes. "Mr. Archibald is scary, mean, and very prideful...but I think can be nice once you've proven yourself to him."

Fredehildr “Frede” Merogasque

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- "Everyone knows of Fredehildr...she's very prideful, but I am extremely grateful for her deeds. I'd honestly be too nervous to talk to her ..."

Anubis -- "ಥ⌣ಥ"

Adhara -- "...I don't know what to say. She's on such a higher platform, I couldn't imagine us getting along."

Eiko Tachibana -- "Ms. Fredehildr Merogasque! She's amazing! I wish I could be someone like her. Brave, strong, and prideful of her deeds! I'd do anything for her if I saw her."

Yuuki Kimura

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- They'd be on good terms. Nothing more. Nothing less. Because of his smaller stature, Grisaia would automatically feel the need to want to protect him. "Yuuki is like a little baby lion. He has potential to do so much more, but not until he's been nurtured and trained. He's nice enough, of course."

Anubis -- He doesn't have much of an opinion on him, aside from him be smol. Would attempt the coddle him, maybe even jab his muzzled into the other's cheek as a form of affection. "(~￣▽￣)~"

Adhara -- She would have a big soft spot for Yuuki because of how nice and spineless he is. She'd definitely whip him into shape, maybe even give him some advice on love and things like that. "Yuuki is such a little bean! He's adorable and really nice and sweet too. I'm really surprised that he hasn't found anyone for himself though."

Eiko Tachibana -- She'd find the other to be fairly attractive and too good for his own good. She'd do anything to make sure that he's happy, healthy, and having fun with whatever he's doing. "Mr. Kimura would be fun to be around! He seems very nice and adorable too! I hope I can make him some more suitable clothes though...heh heh."

Ashton Andrews

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- Wouldn't really have a opinion on the other boy. He seems nice enough, and maybe they could even be friends if the situation allows itself. Grisaia might find him easy to blend into a scenery. "Don't get me wrong, I think the kid's alright, but I'm not quite sure what to think of him yet. He seems helpful in a group, and other times, he seems really conceited. Comes off a little off putting."

Anubis -- Anubis would be confused by most of what Aston would probably have to say to him, making the former very reluctant to talk to him, even if he could talk that is. "~_~"

Adhara -- Wouldn't like Ashton that much. Maybe it's how he wants to be the'face' of whatever group he's in, or the though that hes way to full of himself and feigns caring for others, Adhara gets some really weird vibes from him. "If he so much as touches Saia, I'll hang him up the highest roof of the Vertti household by just his underwear."

Eiko Tachibana -- Eiko would probably be friends with the boy, wanting to get more about him and learn more as well. Shed probably be too nervous to do so based on the people he associates herself with. "Mr. Andrews seems very friendly! I like him a lot. He just wants to do the best for himself and his friends and I respect that!"

Flame Brooks

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- If anything, they'd naturally get along with each other. They share similar personality traits and would be able themselves in each other. Grisaia might even be prone to start conversations with him because of that. "Flame is cool if, I think. He understands a part of me that probably no one else will, and for that I'm grateful."

Anubis -- Anubis doesn't have any opinion with Flame. It's not that he doesn't like him, but he doesn't really care that much for the guy nor does he have any inclination to get to know him better either. "(+_+)"

Adhara -- Adhara couldn't care less about Flame. Wouldn't hate him because he has his demons, but wouldn't like his ignorance in the slightest. "As long as he doesn't do anything to hurt or annoy my friends, hes whatever to me."

Eiko Tachibana -- Eiko would naturally be nervous and clearly frightened to be alone with him because of his nature, but it's possible they could have an 'opposites attract' kind of personality. "Mr. Brooks makes me nervous...l-like really nervous. I think I'd cry if h-he tried talking to me. I-I hope he wouldn't think I'm ignorant or a b-bad person..."

Chiyo Kouko

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- "I often see the little girl in the Forye Household. She's a little...different, but I treat her like I treat most."

Anubis -- "(⊙︿⊙✿)"

Adhara -- "Freaky fucking brat..."

Eiko Tachibana -- "Ms. Kouko is super adorable! Although she doesn't make me really nervous..."

Gris Ayt Forye

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- "Sir Forye is someone I greatly respect. I am often sent on deliveries by Mistress Vertti to the Forye Household, so I see him often. I care for him as much as I care for Mistress Vertti herself."

Anubis -- "(✿◠‿◠)"

Adhara -- "He's cool, I can respect what he does. Haven't actually talked to him before."

Eiko Tachibana -- "Mr. Forye...I don't personally know him, but I'm very grateful for all of his helpful actions concerning Demi Humans such as myself! I hope one day, I could do something nice for him as repayment!"

Pharos

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- "I respect all Spirits and I hope my Divine Protection doesn't offend him..."

Anubis -- "ヾ(＠＾▽＾＠)ﾉ"

Adhara -- "All Spirits are awesome! Pharos is no exception!"

Eiko Tachibana -- "I can't dress up as him, but I love Pharos much as all other Spirits. I'd love to get to know him better."

Elque Ayt Forye

At A Glance (CS)

Grisaia Vertti -- "A cuter, older, and female version of myself. Elque is very similar to me, make her really easy to talk to. We kinda have the same job too so we see each other a lot. Disrespect her and I'll have your head."

Anubis -- "╰(◡‿◡✿╰)"

Adhara -- "I unfortunately have to see her a lot..."

Eiko Tachibana -- "I don't know if we'd really be friends, but I-I'm glad she's on my side... heh..."

Miraculous America

Bella looked up cautiously when Alex claimed that her words weren't exactly what she herself thought they were.
"I-It's not?" She questioned as she skated forwards a bit before turning around to face the other girl. She made sure not to jostle Hoppi too much in her pocket, but judging by the slight rustling, she didn't do a very good job at it. "Really? We can be friends? For real?" She questioned, and for once not stumbling over her words. The timidness in her posture and on her face slowly began to fade and was replaced with a much more calmer and comfortable girl. "Thank you, I would really...l-like being friends."

Having relationships with other people had always been a very touchy subject for Bella. She never knew how to act, nor if she was doing he right thing that came with the relationship in question. Sure she had 'friends', but she never really talked to them outside of class or anything like that. But Alex, and maybe even the others at this point, was a little different. Maybe it was because they woke up in the same hospital room, but Bella just felt calmer around the dark haired upperclassmen. Maybe they could really become good friends...

At the mention of others, Bella visible tense and turned to face forward on her skates, covering her heated face in the process. Of course she knew about Jess and Brian despite never interacting with them, but suddenly being put in a position to get to know them?! Once she collected her bearings, she turned back to Alex, her expression lighting up a bit.
"I-I can be friends with them too? That's okay? W-Would they even like me? A-Aren't they all upperclassmen like you?" Bella questioned curiously before placing a hand over her mouth. "Sorry, I-I'm asking too many questions...w-we should go, i-it'll be a long day t-tomorrow..." She smiled faintly as she slowed down her pace, moving beside Alex instead.

Although learning each other's secret, Bella was a rather glad that she was able to make some friends out it.

Grisaia Vertti

Grisaia Vertti

19 | Cismale | 115 lbs | 5' 7" (excluding ears)
Fuma_Wind | Native | Rabbit Demi-Human

Description
Main servant to the Vertti household and known for forming a contract with two full Spirits, Grisaia is a rabbit Demi-Human who's stone clad face and overall polite personality hide years of neglect and trauma under it.

Appearance Description
Grisaia is a lanky young man with short faded blonde hair, pale crystal colored eyes and almost porcelain skin. Being a loyal and one of the best servants that belong to the Vertti family Grisaia is almost dressed in a white long sleeved button up collared shirt with a wine red sleeveless tailcoat over top it. He normally wears light brown slacks short enough to expose some of his shins as well as his striped socks. He also wears reddish brown boots, especially when going out to run errands. As a Demi-Human, Grisaia sports a poofy white rabbit tail and long white rabbit ears that move depending on his emotions.

Personality
Grisaia is almost exactly what you'd expect a servant to act like. He's extremely dedicated to his work and upholds a strong sense of duty to his household. He faithfully follows and carries out every one of the Vertti's orders, while ensuring that the other servants around him run smoothly. He's extremely polite despite his face being rather stone clad and entirely stoic. Being a servant, Grisaia's true emotions for the things around him are strongly filtered out, so when he does go outside of the Vertti household, he can be a little dense and often oblivious to even his own emotions; his mind would say one thing, and his mouth the other. There are those rare moments were he's able to fully express himself and speak what's truly on his mind, but it only seems to happen with people outside of his work or that he's gotten to know really well; for example, his two spirit companions.

Hopefully if one gets to know Grisaia better, they'd realize he's just a normal, friendly guy, who has a hard time speaking what's truly on his mind due to past experiences.

Class
Jack-Of-All-Trades (with Summoner tendencies): Grisaia fights much like how a Summoner would fight in the Final Fantasy Series, or The Bravely Default Series to be more specific. He relies on his Divine Protection to build mana before expending it on his contracted Spirits or vice versa. Without his Divine Protection, he'd probably be akin to a glass cannon. He can heal with Adhara, attack/defend with Anubis, and defend/attack on his own, but he'll never be as strong as someone who has mastered any of these skills.

Bio

-

Grisaia was born into the world along with his older twin brother Florenz within the slums of Gusteko. Knowing that they wouldn't be able to take care of two children in such terrible conditions, both his mother and father decided to abandon him in favor of taking care of a single child; it wasn't like either of them were even old enough to understand what was going on, so that lessened the pain of it all right? Probably for Florenz who still had a family. Grisaia on the other hand was taken in by a group of slumfolk who found him alone and wrapped in a little blanket.

Gusteko was already a cold kingdom so the fact that Grisaia was able to survive for who knows how long before he was finally found was quite a miracle. Even the people than found him was a miracle for Grisaia, as said people made it their job to take care of the lost and abandoned children that made their way into the slums in the first place. It was in their care that Grisaia slowly began to learn about himself and the blessing bestowed upon him.

Although his days in the slums were hard and strenuous, Grisaia felt like he belonged and was actually happy with his life and once he's old enough, he hopes to find his parents and reunite with them. He was optimistic. Unfortunately, the world didn't seem to want Grisaia to find his family and let them know that he's still out there. At the mere age of six, all hell broke loose and the war came into fruition. At first, Grisaia felt that he and the other kids would be fine since they wouldn't feel the need to bring fighting to their raggedy home, but low and behold, Grisaia and all the other Demi-Human children were plucked away from their foster family to train and participate in said war; he was being forced to fight for the Demi-Humans.

To say that Grisaia would never be prepared to fight in the war was a complete understatement as the undernourishment of being abandoned as soon as he came into the world coupled with his naturally scrawny body meant he wouldn't be of much use. At least, that was what was originally thought until Grisaia was forced to use his Divine Protection and destructive Wind magic to deflect a blast coming straight at him during training.

Upon uncovering this amazing power and potential magical prowess that could used for their sake, Grisaia, who was only about ten years old by that time, was put into the front lines as the 'perfect shield'. The physical and mental strain of putting thousands upon thousands of elemental barriers up to protect those who wanted it as well as watching people his kind and alike losing their lives right in front of him, followed by the constant, almost never ending beatings he received whenever one of his barriers broke during training, had Grisaia to the point of wanting to take his own life and end it all.

But he couldn't. Doing that meant that he couldn't go back to his family, Doing that meant more people would get hurt and die. Doing that would mean that everything was over and Grisaia didn't want that. He probably looked miserable in battle too, as during one fateful day, Grisaia was kidnapped by the enemy side, a house that went by the name of Vertti. The traumatized boy wasn't scared in the slightest as he wasn't tied up, or attacked, or anything really. Instead the humans of the Vertti household offered him a place he could call his new home. A place within Lugnica. It was here that he learned how to become an extremely loyal and trusting servant to the people that took him off the battlefield and to a place where he could somehow be happy. He was only fourteen by that time.

A year passed with living with the Vertti's and that's when he came into contact with the the Spirits Adhara and Anubis. Due to all three of their naturally odd behaviors, the three hit it off pretty well and eventually became close enough to were Grisaia made a contract with both of them. He's been working at the Vertti household ever since.

TLDR; Grisaia was abandoned by birth and taken in by a group of 'slum-dwellers' soon after. Life was alright until Grisaia turned six and was taken away to be conditioned for the war. Upon learning his force field capabilities, the Demi-Humans threw him into the horrors of war and wasn't saved from it until he turned 14 when he was kidnapped by the Vertti's. The Vertti family instead put his magical prowess to better use and made him a servant to the house. He rose up the ranks and eventually became the main servant, meeting Adhara and Anubis soon after because of his mana capabilities.

Magic
Life energy: D+ / Flow: A-
(Spirit Magic)

Abstract Magics
Divine Protection: Spirit Shield -- Due to Grisaia's strong affinity with other Spirits, his Divine Protection, properly named Spirit Shield, allows Grisaia to call upon very small non-contracted Spirits of any affinity he chooses so long as they are used for protection purposes to ultimately shield him and others when needed. He can only pull up to 2 shields at a time with normal circumstances, but he has the ability to erect more if pushed to his limits. This often leads to terrible side effects like minor headaches to losing consciousness if the initial strain was too much.

Adhara and Anubis

Spirit: Adhara -- A Water affinity full spirit who made a contract with Grisaia and is best friends with Anubis. Performs Water based attacks of various states and healing magic. She can be given orders and leave from Grisaia's side easily.

Spirit: Anubis -- A Earth affinity full spirit who made a contract with Grisaia and is best friends with Adhara. Performs Earth crumbling attacks. She can be given orders and leave from Grisaia's side easily much like Adhara can.

Eiko Tachibana

Eiko Tachibana

16 | Cisfemale | 97 lbs | 5' 1"
Yang_Jiwald | Native | Dove Demi-Human

Description
A mature young lass with Dove wings strapped to her back and clothing akin to the spirits, Eiko is a friendly girl you wouldn't want on your bad side.

Appearance Description
Eiko's a fairly short girl with short brown hair, bright emerald eyes and fair skin. Pale white dove wings sprout from her back, but can be tucked in to feign the appearance of being entirely Human. Because Spirits are naturally attracted to her and she sees them on a regular basis, Eiko loves to dress up and emulate said Spirits by making the clothing herself. Whether it's primary for battling, to working at the Religious district, attending a sacred ceremony, to just taking a normal stroll in the rain, Eiko's got something different and interesting to wear, with each outfit emulating a Spirit of some sort. Despite frequently changing her clothing, Eiko always has on her person a slim pink staff and a mini white grimoire with golden clasps on them.

Personality
Eiko is an extremely sweet and surprisingly mature girl for her age. She's often all over the place when it comes to explanations, and tends to get angry at herself for very petty reasons. This usually makes her comes across as naïve, clumsy, dense and clueless in the process, but that's far from the truth. Eiko's rather optimistic and trustworthy, which normally makes her automatically friendly with everybody, but once someone gets on her nerves, expect to be blacklisted for life. Eiko, once you've seen it, it practically known for her very vicious temper. While she's often seen getting a bit upset at her ramblings, it's almost nothing compared to how she is when she's angry. Almost like a Two-Face situation, Eiko could be the sweetest and most mature person in the world if she likes you, and a vulgar demon spawn from Hell if you get her angry. Regardless of this, Eiko tries to give everyone a chance, but once you've lost that luxury, expect every interaction with her afterwards to be slow and painful; unless you're into masochism...that's okay too I guess. Oh, and uh, just because her outward appearance might seem entirely good, she isn't afraid to work with shady people if it ensures the well being of her Spirit friends.

Class
Valkyrie-Dragoon Hybrid: Two other classes from the Bravely Default and Final Fantasy Series. Eiko essentially fights like the both of them would, even implementing the 'Jump mechanic' from them, using her dove wings to hover in the air for a moment. She's known for hopping to and fro, launching sharp cards at far range and utilizing her multiform staff for close range endeavors. She never uses magic unless it's to protect herself from unnecessary blows.

Bio
Eiko is probably as normal as normal can get in such a magical world. Being born a Dove Demi-Human, as she grew up, she was often used in religious ceremonies and even weddings too because of her pristine look. Most wouldn't believe that she actually grew up in the poorer districts, with all the money she got from helping out. Having no say and being a minor working in the Religious District wherever she was needed, Eiko quickly fell in love with dressing up and wearing clothing that she could use to express herself. However with the war and everything, she was never able to show her beautiful clothing to the world as much as she would like to, which lead to her slow but steady interaction with the Spirits in the environment who were naturally attracted to her.

She still spends her days, helping out where she's needed, in the Royal Districts, in order to acquire enough money for her mother and also interact with and learn from the Spirits who always give her a new idea in terms of something new she can wear.

Magics
Life energy: D / Flow: E-
(Gate-Based)

Abstract Magics
None at the moment, and she probably won't ever have one, although she is very friendly with Spirits.

Themes

Eiko's weapon of choice is the slim pink staff she always has on her. It has the ability to change into two other weapons whenever Eiko prompts it to do so; that being a lance (Dragoon/Valkyrie Form) and a hammer (Heavy/Guard Form). These two different modes do nothing aside from change the weapon (no magical properties are added. Inside of her grimoire, Eiko carries around razor sharp throwing cards, again with no other significant magical properties. The only time Eiko uses magic is to protect her body if she falls and add an extra punch to her attacks.

location: Corona Park (Afternoon)
tag(s): Ash @LostBrotherGrimm, Siobhan @Almalthia
mention(s): none

"I can teach you some cool words if you want Ash! In exchange of something else of course." It must be sad being the only one in the group to not know another language. Not that he would know of course. At the mention of a 'toasty demon', Capella gave the older man a sour look. Since he could see a few murky figures around him, the blonde swung around his walking stick in attempts to bop the man on the side. He could swear, this guy just had all the jokes did he...at least he was reliable when he needed it.

And although it took a while, the guitar ended up in his hands.
"Honestly...that would have been really cool to see!" This time he actually laughed, bouncing on his toes in the process before getting helped into the Uber; it seemed to be a habit he did whenever he was really happy or surprised.

Once he got his bearings together in the car, Capella tilted his head in recognition to Ash's voice.
"My mom talked about the place once before. Apparently it was built in 1897. Super old place." He commented as the car began its drive to the restaurant in question.

---

As the Uber pulled op to what he assumed was there destination, Capella noted how quiet their lady friend was being. Maybe something happened? Or they weren't feeling very well? The blonde wasn't sure if he should question it or not, so he instead focused on Toasty, who didn't seem to be very excited about being crammed in a car with a few strangers. Luckily the drive wasn't very far, as he was soon was being helped out the car by Siobhan, mumbling a quiet thanks in the process.

Hearing the older woman claim she had to take her leave, Capella nodded slowly as it confirmed his suspicions. With his hands particularly full, the boy hooked his guitar over his body and wrapped his end of Toasty's leash around his wrist before tilting his head curiously when she said she'd give her card to them. At the mention of taking care of him, Capella couldn't help but let out a scoff.
"Him? Take care of me? Sure..." He trailed off, his voice condescending but playful. As he received a pat on the shoulder, the blonde boy smiling before giving a small wave.
"I-It was nice meeting you!" Capella grinned as Toasty barked in confirmation before his attention was eventually brought to Ash. "What does the card say? What does the card say?" He questioned in anticipation, leaning forward in the process.

Miraculous America

Bella remained quiet during the entirety of their little conversation, her eyes practically glued to the ground. She never looked up, nor did she physically acknowledge their words. If she was on anyone's side then it would probably Alex's. They were meant to keep their identities secret, but with them knowing who each other are, it would lead to them being more open to the enemy if they could also make the connection. However, Tonya's point was also true in that they couldn't do anything about it now and just ad to bare the secret together.

Naturally being the type of person to keep everything to herself, getting use to something like this would be strenuous at the very least. Eddie's Kwami mentioned the idea of having all the Kwami meet up with each other, but Bella didn't want to speak on behalf of Hoppi, especially when she couldn't speak for herself, so she simple kept quiet, waiting for everyone to disperse before leaving herself. She quickly hurried to her locker, putting on her elbow and knee pads as well as her in line skates, before grabbing her bag and skating down the halls towards the upperclassmen lockers. What Alex had to say earlier did make Bella reluctant to see her with the knowledge they had, but she couldn't just leave the older girl behind at school.

Upon finding the dark haired girl, Bella slowed down her pace so that she wouldn't run over her. She patiently waited to let the other finished what she had to do before making her way towards the school's front entrance. She was silent at first, but after a bit of thinking, she finally decided to speak up.
"U-Um, Alex? If y-you'd like, I can keep my distance away from you at school? I-I mean, you said you w-want to keep your personal and h-hero life a s-secret, y-yes? So...i-if that's what you want, I don't mind..." She began to trail off, fumbling over words as she wasn't quite sure how to explain it.

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Harmonia United

Those Involved: Everyone

"So, we got the whole day to do whatever, right? What do you guys want to do now?" The raven haired one of the bunch questioned as he felt a gentle tug on one of his locks, giving him the okay to let down the messy haired girl on her own two feet. The Dark Dorm members, as usual, kept a rather low and quiet profile, save for Kame and Elliot, who were either commenting on the duel between the teachers, or butting heads about why the new Fire Dorm teacher won. They were currently standing in somewhat of a circle, each sharing a curious glance with the ones next to them to see if they had any ideas on how to answer Elliot's question. Soon enough, Kame took this as her chance.

"Don't you think we should at least talk about this whole 'team up' thing before one of you guys decide to waste my time?" She questioned, placing her hands on her hips as she did so.

"I thought we would team up with Xyz. They're nice people from what I've seen." He answered simply, much to Kame's annoyance, her bob swishing as she turned her head to look directly at Elliot.

"Okay, either you're stupid, or blind, because the Synchro dorm is also an option."
"But they got the Ice Queen herself on their side..."
"Don't call her that, you ass." Kame snapped, stepping closer to the much taller boy as a form of intimidation. "I know you just want to team with them so that you have an excuse to talk to that weird animal girl you've been crushing on. What's her name again...?" Elliot seemed to get heated up at this as he brought his balled fists up in a defensive motion.
"Her name is Sana, you uncultured swine, and I LOVE her."
"Yeah, sure. And I love making my grandmother cry." She hummed dismissively.
"Oh for fuc--"

"Guys. W-We're in public..." William's soft voice caused the both of them to stop and look around. No one seemed to be paying much attention to them, but the gray haired boy knew when they would start yelling at each other. Best to stop them now then to let them keep going with insults that'll sooner or later start hurting people's feelings, and that they did, apparently unaffected, thankfully, by each other's words. Bellatrix could only snicker at their back and forth, while Felicitas seems to be looking somewhere else, both seeming not to care too much of they kept going or not. "But Kame's right, we should at least talk about it. Maybe leave it to a vote like usual." Ah the 'usual'. Liam was always the one to offer the 'usual', but it always led to more fighting and inevitably no decision being made. Not that it really mattered most of the time. Yeah, they always got on their nerves, but once it was all over they'd just forget about it. Hopefully it was the same for this case as were all the others.

"You know this'll turn out not working, like always, right? It never does when me and him have different opinions." Kame frowned as she folded her arms. "I want Synchro and Elli wants Xyz, right?" She questioned, earning a simple nod from the glasses wearing boy in question. "So that means Bella's gonna choose a side..." She trailed to let the devil horned girl make her choice.

"Ooo! Let's go Synchro. It's fun to say!" Bella said with a toothy grin, her canines practically forcing Kame to step back.

"Yeah, sure, whatever. And then you're gonna choose whichever side has the least amount of votes because you can't think for yourself." This time she glared at Liam, expecting him to do something different, which he didn't. "And Felicitas never cares, so we're stuck on a tie!" She yelled towards the end, lacing her fingers through her hair in annoyance. "We really need to find a better way of doing these things, because we always end up nowhere using them." She huffed.

"I don't like her that much either sometimes..." Elliot paused to smirk when Kame stuck her tongue out at him. "...but she does have a point. We should talk about it over some food, that'll get our brains turning! Right Feli?" He questioned, finally acknowledging his best friend, and the top ranked of the Dark Dorm.

"..."

"Feli?"

"..." When he didn't get a response the second time, The turned to look at whatever the beige haired girl was looking at. From what they could tell, it just looked like some other students passing by, but upon closer inspection, they came to realize what managed to catch the petite girl's eye.

"Wow, how did I miss his hair?" Liam remarked as he placed a hand on his chin.

"Yeah, I tend to do that a lot myself. He kinda blends in and doesn't blend in at the same time." Kame admitted.

"But look at his eyes! They're so pretty~" Bella ended it with a coo, flexing her fingers in a grabbing motion.

"Damn, it really has been a hot minute, huh?" The raven haired boy sighed almost dreamily.

"He kinda looks like you, but with blue...hair."

"Oh that's right, you haven't really talked to Kaito that much, huh...we could introduce you properly Feli!"

"...Why?"

"Because he's getting cloooossseerrrr~" Bella snickered excitedly, sliding up to her tippy toes in anticipation.

"Ah you guys were in the middle of something?" The boy questioned once he was close enough. Before any of the others could speak and ultimately embarrass all of them, Liam took the reigns.

"Ah, n-nope! Don't worry about us! Was there a-anything you needed?" He asked, practically feeling the four pairs of heavy gazes cast upon the blue haired teen.

“Don’t worry, I won’t be here for long if you guys are busy. I’m just here to start the year off on the right foot and talk to you all at the start of the year. Ah, by the way, the name’s is Kaito Nonaka in case you forgot. I’m happy to see you all once again. How about it? You guys up for hanging out for the day?" He then asked, only to receive a slight glare from Kame.

"Nonaka? As in Izumi Nonaka?" She questioned. Despite the constant battles they've had together, she never even thought about what his last could even be. That, or she just didn't care and forgot about it.

"No way, are you related to her? Or is it just a coincidence?" Elliot then asked, lilac eyes wide and curious.

"Do...Do you use Pendulums too?!" Felicitas asked as a bit of life flashed into her eyes. Speaking of eyes...

"Kaito, darling! It's great to see your lovely eyeballs once again!" Bella snickered, nodding approvingly at what...um, at who was in front of her.

"Come on guys, g-geez..." The dark skinned male sighed before giving Kaito an apologetic smile. Of course they all knew each other, aside from Felicitas, but seeing as the other started the new year with a little reintroduction, Liam decided to do the same with everyone else following suit. "It's nice to see you again, Kaito. I'm William Nikos, but of course, I prefer Liam." He said, before looking to the others.

"Oh! Bellarix Layn. Bella!"

"Kame Hiro, ranked third in the Dark Dorm, but of course you knew that. I've already started working on a timetable for times we can duel throughout the school year. You better be ready."

"No need to reintroduce myself, but she would like to." Elliot grinned smugly before placing a hand on their first rank, prompting her to speak.

"...I'm Felicitas Weiner...it's nice to meet you..." The leader concluded with a slight wave before looking back up at Elliot, who decided to take the lead.

"I think it'd be cool if we hung out! We can be a little weird, but I'm sure you don't mind. Plus, we wanted to maybe ask you some questions about your dorm?" The boy smiled before continuing. "We don't go out much, so anywhere that suits your fancy's cool with us!"
