Oval was outside. They were leaning against a tree trying to make a succeeding attempt at a handstand. They kept falling over from time to time but kept getting back up.
Theren comes staggering past Oval completely oblivious that they are there. He collapses against an opposite tree while breathing heavily.
Oval tilts their head and walks over, crouching down to stare at him.
Theren looks up his eyes slightly misted over. "Who...who are you?"
"The more important question is are you alright?" They ask, their ear fins wavering back and forth
Theren smiles weakly before grimacing. "I've been through worse. An adamantium sword wound isn't that bad. The problem is that it was coated with poison."
Oval moves to examine the wound. The end of their frills begin to glow a bit with soft pink light as they study it.
*Sorry spanish test*
Theren keeps his hand over the wound.
Oval titled their head again "if you want to heal, I must see it"
Theren sighs and uncovers the wound. The surrounding area is green and the wound has turned black.
Oval looks over it. They pull something out of their pocket. It looks like a silver ring with a cut rose quartz in the shape of a small heart embedded in the metal. They hold it out "Ring of Healing" they say
Theren takes it and turns it in his metal left hand. "Question."
they tilt their head again, listening.
"Why do you care?"
"Because I can feel your pain. Its a problem with me, I can feel others emotions"
*Back*
"Oh..." Theren slips on the ring.

Oval smiles a bit "it won't help the poison but it should stabilize you so you can take care of it. You can give it back later!"
Kelipso was outside, he was jogging around in the woods, Gordon racing behind him happily.
Brand was drinking at the bar, flicking A few coins at the bartender.
*Me crying in not having jason anymore due to a quest happening ;-;*
Zenix is sitting in a tree deep in the woods, seeming to be both extremely vigilant, and very laid back at the same time.
Simon is leaned up against a tree at the edge of the forest line, reading a book
Vega is outside the tavern, laying in the grass, a small group of pebbles being levitated to form rough shapes every couple seconds (Going with him cause of personal reasons :D)
*Hm I have not met Simon I don't think. Let me spin again to annoy myself*
*BUT I do have oval!!!*
Oval was leaning against a tree quietly trying to do a hand-stand.
*Simons actually someone new that i brought in recently. I also brought in a god, but i'm still tweaking them to make them semi-balanced. So mostly just simon out of my newbies*
After a few minutes, vega walks over, watching her attempt the hand-stands
Oval keeps falling down but trying again and again
After a couple more attempts, vega chuckles, "Want some help there kiddo?" he asks
"I can do it!!" They said and tried again, falling over despite trying AgAiN
Vega smiles and flicks a finger when they aren't looking, using the slightest hint of telekinesis to help them balance
Oval chuckles "your using magic, I can feel it" they said with a small grin.
"Just a bit of balancing help," He says cheekily
" I can do it!!" They said and huffed a bit
"Ok, ok," he says, removing his magic
Oval holds their breath as they stand very still

Out of the woods, A tiger-looking humanoid steps out. Their fur is red-orange like fire, white, and black. Their eyes are bright blue, like two tiny sapphires. Their whiskers twitch ever so slightly in the breeze as they look around proudly at their surroundings. A notable thing to their body is that their hands seem to have the palms on the back, not normal at all.
They wear fine silks with elegant designs stitched in with gold thread, A pair of rustic leather boots on their feet, and a thick golden necklace around their neck.
They seem to chuckle a bit to themself, scanning their surroundings.
*SO MANY CHARACTERS I WANT TO USE, SO LITTLE TIME*
Simon looks over at them as they step out of the tree line, basically directly next to them
The rakshasa flicks an ear "I can smell you so there is no point in turning my head" he says, his voice deep, almost like a growl.
"Sure there isn't." He says politely,
"Who are you" he asked, flicking his stumpy tail.
"Names simon," He says, watching their tail move, "And you're a tiger person or something?"
"Rakshasa" he corrected him with a chuckle as if he were a grown up teaching a child.
"Tabaxi knock off," He nods with a teasingness in his tone
Arajani snorted and placed a large furry paw on Simons head as if he were giving him a head pat and pushed him away.
Simon chuckles as he's pushed
"Leave me tiny humanoid" he says and flicks his tail again

Albwin watches from behind a tree.
After about a minute or so, vega sits up, stratching slightly as he gets up from the grass, looking around the fields of grass with the same friendly smile he always has
Albwin continues to watch quietly.
From the looks of it, vega starts walking in the direction of the tree he's behind, though he doesn't seem to know that albwin is behind it
Albwin ducks behind the tree and prepares to scare Vega.
Vega keps walking, eventually starting to pass the tree
Albwin pokes Vegas back. "BOO!"
Despite the average resolve of a goliath, vega visibly jumps slightly, turning back, "Albwin!" He chuckles

There is a loud thunk as an arrow hits a tree near them.
The Rakshasa sighs and sticks out their tongue a bit "now that was mean"
A half-elf with a metal left arm lowers his bow. "Sorry! You just appeared out of nowhere!"
They hiss a bit and flick their stumpy tail. "I should deserve compensation for you almost endangering the life of a noble"
"I mean you just walked into where I was practising archery."
"Money. Now." He snaps his fingers in their direction
