*uhhhh so here are my characters*

Theren is sitting in a corner watching over his kids.

Phoenix is trying to figure out what is wrong with Jack and Lore.

*annnnnnnnd i might intro someone*

Jack and Lore, both being piloted by Rejuvenation, are sitting in the middle of a field. Rejuvenation talking to themself about death and decay.

Phoenix approaches them both.

Both of their necks make a sickening snap as Rejuvenation giggles "The solider is back to play some more!"

Phoenix raises his finger. On it glimmers two diamonds. "Ring of three wishes." he then shouts. "I WISH FOR JACK AND LORE TO BE RID OF YOU!"

Rejuvenation barely has time to even snarl a vicious threat before it seeps from Jackson's and Lore's skin into a pool of black smoke. It hisses and runs for the shadows as Lore and Jackson drop to their knee's unconuisus.

Phoenix rushes to them both and mumbles a prayer to his patron, The Queen of the Summer Court. He casts greater restoration.

(OOOOOOOH YURI IS GONNA BEAT HIS (GP) TO HIGH HELLS)

Jackson wakes up, groggily, but Lore remains asleep.

*thbghtbg why-*

"Hon, are you ok?" he asks, trying to shake Lore awake.

(Yuri notoriously hates Tatiana.)

"Hm? yeah. Just... headache." He said and summoned his spellbook. "Careful please love."

"You were possessed." he says, continuing to cast spells. Theren comes running from the woods. "What the hells happened?" *Just gonna do this so he can assist with Lore*

"Terrific" he said and rubbed the bridge of his nose "Good gods above it feels like my head is gonna split open."

After a moment Lore wakes up, gasping for air as if she was held underwater.

"Ring of three wishes saved you."

Theren cradles her head. "Hey breathe, breathe..."

"You wasted a wish?" he asked and tilted his head "Ah love, thank you but now im worried again."

"Im breathing!" she says and takes a deep breath in and out.

"Two wishes." he shows the two shattered diamonds to Jack.

Thern has worry etched onto his face as he continues to cradle her head.

Some stories are often forgotten within the sands of time. We hear them from our parents or grandparents who heard it from theirs but as we grow older, we often forget them.

Let me tell you a story friend. Its about a woman who hid herself from the world because of an angel.

Elise was no more than 5 when Titus had began visiting her. He whispered in her ears, trying to set her on the path of good. There was a fatal flaw in his plan however, humans are not good nor evil. They are simply humans.

Elise has denied his words from entering her mind for years until her adopted brother, a turquoise-skinned teifling by the name of Maddox, was killed in a riot in town. That day, her wings sprouted from her back, featherless and made entirely from celestial bone. Titus watched as his little creation formed from the rage of loosing what she held dear and he almost told the gods of what had happened, but he was to fascinated by her anger to do so.

He stood before her, offering his hand and guidance and she took it. He showed her who had murdered her brother and she brought down her sword, cleaving his head in twain.

When her eyes were no longer clouded by anger, she saw what she had done. She had taken a life and that was a horrible sin. She renounced Titus, cursing him for letting her do this. He noticed her pain but he was to infatuated with her sins to care. He continued to follow her around until she took her sword and removed his head from his shoulder.

Her blade, now coated in the blood of a celestial, was cursed to never leave her as a final act of gleeful vengeance by Titus. If she ever tried to get rid of it, her hands would catch aflame with holy fire.

The door opened slowly as a woman, about 30 or so, peeks her head in. She has long, white-blonde hair that flows around her shoulder like a cloak. Her skin is fair but horribly pale, her cheeks dappled with silver freckles. Her eyes are bright gold and are flecked with dots of jet black. She wears black plate armor that has seen wars and battles. Sheathed on her hip is a longsword with a silver blade. Bandages peek out from the breaks in his plate armor, wrapping around her chest tightly.

She moves inside and makes her way to a table by the window, keeping her head down and eyes on the ground. She sits down and stares out the window, her thumb running over her blade.

Theren waves from a corner where he is watching over his two kids.

She looks over and gives a small smile and a wave before getting up and walking over. "Hello there" she says.

"Hello. Who might you be?" his kids hide behind Theren.

"Elise Moongrave.... Pleasure to meet you." She said and bowed a bit. "Who are you and these little ones?" she asked and tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear.

"Pleasure I am Theren Dotsk. These are my kids. Cecilia and Nathan."

"Mn." She said and watched the kids for a moment before turning her attention back to Theren "You waved me over, did you need something from me?" she asked politely

"Just welcoming a newcomer." he says with a kind smile.

"Ah. Thank you then." she said and bowed again.

Theren bows as well. "So, if you dont mind me asking, where are you from?"

"Twin Rivers, south of Icewind Dale." she said and stuffed her hands in her trouser pockets.

"Wow...Icewind Dale. Been a minute since i've been there."

"Not lovely now of days" she said and chuckled "But its still cold so theres that."

Theren nods. "Aye. Are you by chance part of a royal family of sorts?"

She shifted a bit "Yesss.... but i am no longer part of the lineage now of days" she said.

'ah, ran away or disowned?" he then looks abashed. "Sorry if i'm asking too many questions.."

"Ah, both." she said and messed with the hilt of her sword "Not a very good story" she said and looked down at the children "and your fine, i tend to be on the same side of the wall as you are now."

"What do you mean same side of the wall?" he asks as Cecilia hesitantly walks up to Elise.

A stout figure wanders into the inn. They wear a red cloak with gold designs on it resembling coins and dishes of food. A closer look reveals the creature to be at least reptilian, if not draconic, in nature.

The woman, who just walked in, looks up. Her golden eyes watching them for a moment before looking away.

It shuffles up and taps her on the shoulder, an impressive feat for such a squat creature.

She looks over and tilts her head. She gives a small smile "Oh. Hello..."

"H-hello." It seems like it wanted to talk, but didn't come up with a conversation starter before getting her attention. "Can I talk to you? I'm new here." It dumps a fistful of gold onto the table from its seemingly empty hand.

She raises her eyebrows, surprised. "Love, I don't need your money." She said chuckled quietly "You don't need to pay to talk to someone. But I would love to chat with you."

It seems mildly confused and panicked. "I'm sorry! I-it's the only trick I know." It breathes deeply and steadily, attempting to calm itself. "My name is Rupert Clutterghast. What is yours?"

"Elise Moongrave, a pleasure to meet you Rupert." She said and smiled "What are you doing here? If I may ask." She asked and tilts her head,

*Back! And on Chromebook.*

"I'm trying to make friends. I try to be a good guy, but I just... can't help but covet people's friendships. Once people find out that I can... no, not gonna say it this time."

"You can what?" she asked and tilted her head "You can tell me because, believe me, weirder and worse things have happened"

"I can make gold. And luck. And rain. I'm also a skilled thaumaturge."

"Interesting." She said and smiled warmly "Are you a magic user like many in this tavern? or does your magic limit you to simply those things?" She tilted her head before chuckling nervously "I am sorry if i am asking to many questions... If you are uncomfortable with that.. i shall stop."

"No, no!" He seems almost panicked. "I, uh, my sorcery can only do the things I listed, but thaumaturgy is the art of creating miracles through the mundane, and I've been studying it for decades. I know the right teas to cure poison and the right tools to bring back the dead."

"So an alchemist?" she asked and signaled over a waiter, ordering Ale for herself. "You want anything?"

"No thank you, and not quite. Alchemy is science with a small amount of magic, while thaumaturgy is magic with a small amount of science. The difference doesn't sound like much, but in practice it is quite extreme."

"Hm!" she said and sipped her ale "Then why come here?" she asked and tilted her head "I bet someone would pay top dollar to have someone like you on their side."

"That's the problem. I've been used by people so many times. It's not fun to be treated as a glorified prosperity engine."

"Ah. I am sorry for suggesting something like that then." she said and bowed her head "Forgive me, i tend to not think things through before speaking."

"It's okay. Everyone thinks that I should be helping someone when they meet me for the first time. Usually I just got away from 'helping' someone, though."

Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.

Awake, impure, divine

"It's okay. Everyone thinks that I should be helping someone when they meet me for the first time. Usually I just got away from 'helping' someone, though."

"Ah, im sorry." she said and drummed her fingers against the table "Blast it, i feel like i insulted you..."

Quote from WendigoOfLore >>

Some stories are often forgotten within the sands of time. We hear them from our parents or grandparents who heard it from theirs but as we grow older, we often forget them.

Let me tell you a story friend. Its about a woman who hid herself from the world because of an angel.

Elise was no more than 5 when Titus had began visiting her. He whispered in her ears, trying to set her on the path of good. There was a fatal flaw in his plan however, humans are not good nor evil. They are simply humans.

Elise has denied his words from entering her mind for years until her adopted brother, a turquoise-skinned teifling by the name of Maddox, was killed in a riot in town. That day, her wings sprouted from her back, featherless and made entirely from celestial bone. Titus watched as his little creation formed from the rage of loosing what she held dear and he almost told the gods of what had happened, but he was to fascinated by her anger to do so.

He stood before her, offering his hand and guidance and she took it. He showed her who had murdered her brother and she brought down her sword, cleaving his head in twain.

When her eyes were no longer clouded by anger, she saw what she had done. She had taken a life and that was a horrible sin. She renounced Titus, cursing him for letting her do this. He noticed her pain but he was to infatuated with her sins to care. He continued to follow her around until she took her sword and removed his head from his shoulder.

Her blade, now coated in the blood of a celestial, was cursed to never leave her as a final act of gleeful vengeance by Titus. If she ever tried to get rid of it, her hands would catch aflame with holy fire.

The door opened slowly as a woman, about 30 or so, peeks her head in. She has long, white-blonde hair that flows around her shoulder like a cloak. Her skin is fair but horribly pale, her cheeks dappled with silver freckles. Her eyes are bright gold and are flecked with dots of jet black. She wears black plate armor that has seen wars and battles. Sheathed on her hip is a longsword with a silver blade. Bandages peek out from the breaks in his plate armor, wrapping around her chest tightly.

She moves inside and makes her way to a table by the window, keeping her head down and eyes on the ground. She sits down and stares out the window, her thumb running over her blade.

Theren waves from a corner where he is watching over his two kids.

She looks over and gives a small smile and a wave before getting up and walking over. "Hello there" she says.

"Hello. Who might you be?" his kids hide behind Theren.

"Elise Moongrave.... Pleasure to meet you." She said and bowed a bit. "Who are you and these little ones?" she asked and tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear.

"Pleasure I am Theren Dotsk. These are my kids. Cecilia and Nathan."

"Mn." She said and watched the kids for a moment before turning her attention back to Theren "You waved me over, did you need something from me?" she asked politely

"Just welcoming a newcomer." he says with a kind smile.

"Ah. Thank you then." she said and bowed again.

Theren bows as well. "So, if you dont mind me asking, where are you from?"

"Twin Rivers, south of Icewind Dale." she said and stuffed her hands in her trouser pockets.

"Wow...Icewind Dale. Been a minute since i've been there."

"Not lovely now of days" she said and chuckled "But its still cold so theres that."

Theren nods. "Aye. Are you by chance part of a royal family of sorts?"

She shifted a bit "Yesss.... but i am no longer part of the lineage now of days" she said.

'ah, ran away or disowned?" he then looks abashed. "Sorry if i'm asking too many questions.."

"Ah, both." she said and messed with the hilt of her sword "Not a very good story" she said and looked down at the children "and your fine, i tend to be on the same side of the wall as you are now."

"What do you mean same side of the wall?" he asks as Cecilia hesitantly walks up to Elise.

"That i tend to ask to many questions as well." she said and shrugged before kneeling down to Cecilia "Hello child, my name is Elise. Tis a pleasure to be in the presence of such royalty" she says and smiles warmly.

"I-i'm Cecilia. I-i'm n-not royal though..."

*uhhhh so here are my characters*

Theren is sitting in a corner watching over his kids.

Phoenix is trying to figure out what is wrong with Jack and Lore.

*annnnnnnnd i might intro someone*

Jack and Lore, both being piloted by Rejuvenation, are sitting in the middle of a field. Rejuvenation talking to themself about death and decay.

Phoenix approaches them both.

Both of their necks make a sickening snap as Rejuvenation giggles "The solider is back to play some more!"

Phoenix raises his finger. On it glimmers two diamonds. "Ring of three wishes." he then shouts. "I WISH FOR JACK AND LORE TO BE RID OF YOU!"

Rejuvenation barely has time to even snarl a vicious threat before it seeps from Jackson's and Lore's skin into a pool of black smoke. It hisses and runs for the shadows as Lore and Jackson drop to their knee's unconuisus.

Phoenix rushes to them both and mumbles a prayer to his patron, The Queen of the Summer Court. He casts greater restoration.

(OOOOOOOH YURI IS GONNA BEAT HIS (GP) TO HIGH HELLS)

Jackson wakes up, groggily, but Lore remains asleep.

*thbghtbg why-*

"Hon, are you ok?" he asks, trying to shake Lore awake.

(Yuri notoriously hates Tatiana.)

"Hm? yeah. Just... headache." He said and summoned his spellbook. "Careful please love."

"You were possessed." he says, continuing to cast spells. Theren comes running from the woods. "What the hells happened?" *Just gonna do this so he can assist with Lore*

"Terrific" he said and rubbed the bridge of his nose "Good gods above it feels like my head is gonna split open."

After a moment Lore wakes up, gasping for air as if she was held underwater.

"Ring of three wishes saved you."

Theren cradles her head. "Hey breathe, breathe..."

"You wasted a wish?" he asked and tilted his head "Ah love, thank you but now im worried again."

"Im breathing!" she says and takes a deep breath in and out.

"Two wishes." he shows the two shattered diamonds to Jack.

Thern has worry etched onto his face as he continues to cradle her head.

"argggggh" he grumbles and musses Phoenix's hair "You will be the DEATH of me!"

She looks up and chuckles "You can let go Theren." she said and blepped her tongue.

"I will be the life of you." he counters.

Theren gently lets go. "I have something to show you by the way."

"Dont make me teleport you" he jokingly threatens. He slowly stands up, a bit shaky.

"Okay." she said and bowed to Phoenix "Thank you very much for saving me. I have a debt for you now." she said before following Theren.

Quote from Baalzeboop >>

A stout figure wanders into the inn. They wear a red cloak with gold designs on it resembling coins and dishes of food. A closer look reveals the creature to be at least reptilian, if not draconic, in nature.

The woman, who just walked in, looks up. Her golden eyes watching them for a moment before looking away.

It shuffles up and taps her on the shoulder, an impressive feat for such a squat creature.

She looks over and tilts her head. She gives a small smile "Oh. Hello..."

"H-hello." It seems like it wanted to talk, but didn't come up with a conversation starter before getting her attention. "Can I talk to you? I'm new here." It dumps a fistful of gold onto the table from its seemingly empty hand.

She raises her eyebrows, surprised. "Love, I don't need your money." She said chuckled quietly "You don't need to pay to talk to someone. But I would love to chat with you."

It seems mildly confused and panicked. "I'm sorry! I-it's the only trick I know." It breathes deeply and steadily, attempting to calm itself. "My name is Rupert Clutterghast. What is yours?"

"Elise Moongrave, a pleasure to meet you Rupert." She said and smiled "What are you doing here? If I may ask." She asked and tilts her head,

*Back! And on Chromebook.*

"I'm trying to make friends. I try to be a good guy, but I just... can't help but covet people's friendships. Once people find out that I can... no, not gonna say it this time."

"You can what?" she asked and tilted her head "You can tell me because, believe me, weirder and worse things have happened"

"I can make gold. And luck. And rain. I'm also a skilled thaumaturge."

"Interesting." She said and smiled warmly "Are you a magic user like many in this tavern? or does your magic limit you to simply those things?" She tilted her head before chuckling nervously "I am sorry if i am asking to many questions... If you are uncomfortable with that.. i shall stop."

"No, no!" He seems almost panicked. "I, uh, my sorcery can only do the things I listed, but thaumaturgy is the art of creating miracles through the mundane, and I've been studying it for decades. I know the right teas to cure poison and the right tools to bring back the dead."

"So an alchemist?" she asked and signaled over a waiter, ordering Ale for herself. "You want anything?"

"No thank you, and not quite. Alchemy is science with a small amount of magic, while thaumaturgy is magic with a small amount of science. The difference doesn't sound like much, but in practice it is quite extreme."

"Hm!" she said and sipped her ale "Then why come here?" she asked and tilted her head "I bet someone would pay top dollar to have someone like you on their side."

"That's the problem. I've been used by people so many times. It's not fun to be treated as a glorified prosperity engine."

"Ah. I am sorry for suggesting something like that then." she said and bowed her head "Forgive me, i tend to not think things through before speaking."

"It's okay. Everyone thinks that I should be helping someone when they meet me for the first time. Usually I just got away from 'helping' someone, though."

"Ah, im sorry." she said and drummed her fingers against the table "Blast it, i feel like i insulted you..."

"You haven't! I'm just used to it is all."
