Saeka yawned walking out of the house she called home. It was nothing but a false front right? She was given permission to hold such a cover as a socialite. She been taught how to be a normal girl, how to make friends, how to hide who she was. She been taught so well that every day she could feel part of her being over taken by this false front. Someday the assassin, the killer the girl was trained to be by the only family that knew the real her, the knew who she truely was. That girl was fading, she was becoming non existent. [break][break] Killing didn't seem as fun anymore, being a socialite, making friends within the circle she was in felt more exciting, more lively. While she was concern of such, she wasn't going to voice her concern to her caretakers. She was sure her "parents" have already reported her changes in this false life and has asked what they should do for her. [break][break] The pink haired socialite walked into the crowded square where the festivies were being held. She watched the crowds in seeming amazement and happiness soon spotting her group of made friends. Just lowly sheep that didn't know that one of them was a wolf that could have once thought of ending them all and coming out smelling like roses. Yet this life, This social life felt...Normal...A foreign normal that was slowly becoming more familiar. it was scary but it was all for surviving, even if her true self has to fade into the darkness to be free while she stands in the light, so be it. [break][break] She smiled enjoying the planning of today's event for the group as she decided to give some excuse to tend to the events on her own and how she would make it up to them all with some gifts. Cause after all, what girls do not like gifts? [break][break] She waved to them as she turned walking away from the girls heading towards the dance area. It was the easiest place to observe and scout for something to do, maybe someone to kill later. [break][break]
Rank & Element: Junior ¦ Air Pressure ¦ Mist Class & Type: Relic ¦ Accessory (Necklace) Magic Specializations: Sensory ¦ Healing ¦ Physical Reinforcement Appearance: Adunel Lerovup is a simple yet elegant necklace that sits on a delicate silver chain. The pendant itself is around an inch tall by half an inch wide, it is a moonstone surrounded by silver filigree with several silver leaves and small pearls to add to its beauty.
Junior Lore: The creation of this item was thought to be within the Diamond kingdom by a holy man, it isn't been proven one way or another if this is indeed the cage. The former heir to the Zhongli was doing some personal training in the outskirts near the Heart Kingdom when she came across an injured child. The child was to old to take home and so did her best to patch them up, when they regained consciousness they explained what happened and asked for her to take them home. Even though she didn't want to she didn't want to have a child's blood on her hands and so agreed.
When the child was returned she was about to leave but due to the relief of the parents, they insisted on giving her something they considered just as valuable and so was given the necklace. They insisted it wasn't much but in comparison to what she had returned to them, as not to offend them she accepted with every intention of throwing it away, however, she decided against it and so went to the black market to get it appraised and tested. She found out it was indeed valuable and so had it placed in a wooden box with Saeka's name written on top with a note that it was only to be given on her fifteenth birthday so she could appreciate it.
Little did any of the family know that the young heiress would never be there to see their youngest sister's reaction when opening the gift.
Intermediate Lore: ~Get the relic to intermediate to unlock~ Senior Lore: ~Get the relic to Senior to unlock~ Grand Lore: ~Get the relic to Grand to unlock~
Adunel Lerovup is unique in many ways, from the fact it has two elements instead of one, three specializations instead of the normal two and four abilities instead of the normal three, this gives it a perceived edge over many other items because of this fact. In addition to this, any training done by its wearer will grant stats and spell points at a ratio of 1 per 1,500 words as well as once per page allowing it to redirect a spell of the same rank as the item or lower without a clash.
Name of the Ability Z'ar Tobor Type & Uses: Flow¦ 3 Rounds Active ¦ 2 Round Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Healing ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 15 Range & Speed: Self ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: +2 m/s Speed Description: Saying this ability's name is enough to activate it. The wearer of the necklace gains a light mist around their body allowing them to feel refreshed, due to this sensation they are able to move quicker than normal. A secondary effect of this refreshing mist is that the wearer will be healed for junior rank damage, this healing is still in its infancy and so can only heal grazes, minor cuts, bruises and scratches. In addition to this, it will actively use the clashing rules to try and cleanse debuffs, poisons, toxins and other negative effects.
Name of the Ability Hawga Kagh Ehtaha Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 Rounds Active ¦ 2 Rounda Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Sensory (Tracking) Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 25m (+sensory x2) ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: Description: Saying this ability's name is enough to activate it. This tracking spell is a unique one even among one of its kind as usually physical contact is needed to place the marker, where this can still be applied the wearer of the necklace can use their air pressure to send a bolt of air around the size of an average sized dinner plate in the direction of the one they want to track. Due to the nature of Air Pressure if it makes contact with its intended target it will be knocked back 2m with an additional 5m being added for every 10 strength they have, it, of course, would do no damage allowing the person to believe that it was just a dud spell. Regardless of if it is a touch or a dinner plate-sized orb that hits them an invisible mark in the shape of a lilac scythe would be left. This mark can only be seen with the right amount of sensory or higher.
This mark allows the wearer to track their target over a large distance without requiring a map spell that could possibly be seen to be used. With the use of ammo rules, additional marks can be created allowing for several targets to be tracked at once.
Name of the Ability Lorkor Hofiba Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 Rounds Active ¦ 2 Rounds Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Physical Reinforcement ¦ Sensory (Illusion) Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 10m ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: -2 Sensory ¦ +2m/s speed (self) Description: Whispering the ability's name is enough to activate it. The moment this is done what appears to be a thick wind-filled lilac fog seems to fill the area making it almost if not impossible to see for a single round using the blinding rules, regardless of whether they are blinded or not their mana senses would be reacting strangely. They may not be able to feel a spell coming at times and times that they do feel mana it could be coming from the wrong direction, this includes when they use their own spells. The sensory required to see through the illusion is 10 +2 for every 15 control that the wearer has (if the wearer has the advanced perk puppet master this is reduced to +2 for every 10 control) this can be reduced lower if another sensory mage uses a map spell as shown inside the sensory magic spec. The requirement to see-through the spell will decrease by 2 every round (this will change to every second round if the wearer has the advanced perk shattered psyche). As the illusion is still in its infancy there is a lot of unknown growth it can do. The wearer will find that while they are inside the fog that their speed has slightly increased as they feel a stronger air current around their feet.
Name of the Ability Malakta Lilaste Type & Uses: -- ¦ -- ¦ -- Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: -- ¦ -- Range & Speed: Self ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: Description: 1/2 Junior rank strength buff This ability passively grants 1/2 Junior rank strength to physical attacks around their hands a faint wind can be felt with the right amount of sensory the aura of the wind can be seen to be lilac in colour. Due to the nature of air pressure, any physical hit the wearer lands causes a knockback equal to 2m with an additional 5m being added for every 10 strength the wearer has. Due to this being a passive ability it will grow with the necklace and so its word count will be added to what the word count required to advance the item itself.
Rank & Element: Junior ¦ Shadow Class & Type: Magic ¦ Accessory (Hair bow) Magic Specializations: Transformation Appearance & Lore: A periwinkle silk and lace ribbon fashioned into a double hair bow around three inches wide and one and a half inches in height with a double tail that matches the width of the bow. Although, due to the nature of the specialization it has it may change colour depending on what the wearer wants. near the centre of the bow, there is a small gold and moonstone charm around half the size of a pinky nail.
If a person was to look at the owner of this particular bow they would see nothing but a cute, naive and innocent young noblewoman, what they don't know is that the owner is actually a stone-cold manipulator and killer who has likely in the initial second of meeting a person decided how they would be of best use to her, several ways to kill them and how to dispose of their body. The bow was given to Saeka by her elder brother Xue on her fifteenth birthday, it is like its owner and holds a deadly secret that only Saeka and Xue know. Abilities: While worn the owner of Hidden Secrets has access to the advanced perk Mystic's touch
Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 rounds active ¦ 2 rounds cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Transformation (Temperature Changing) Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 10m (AoE) ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: -- Description: Pulling the golden moonstone charm before gripping and pulling the hairbow out of her hair will cause the bow itself to be shrouded in a wispy shadow for a moment before it begins to extend, when it fades what lays in its wake is an ornate 8" double-sided serrated, yet lightweight dagger which is perfectly balanced for the user. Around the blade itself are wisps of shadow but after a brief few seconds it seems to transform leaving lilac wisps of wind. The blade is classed as a physical weapon and will do Junior rank damage as such. It has the added benefit of warming or cooling the area with the light breeze although it will smell of lilac.
Rank & Element: Intermediate ¦ Gemstone Class & Type: Magic ¦ Trinket (Charm) Magic Specializations: Golem Creation Appearance: This is a delicate silver charm slightly bigger than a thumbnail with an obsidian inlay to make it seem like a spider's web.
History: To get into the festive spirit the shopkeeper had these charms made as a sweet treat with a trick hidden inside. She has people sign a liability waiver and hopes no one they know has arachnophobia.
Name of the Ability: Black Widow Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 4 Rounds ¦ 3 Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Intermediate ¦ Golem Creation Mana Cost: 15 ¦ 8 Range & Speed: 40m ¦ 20 m/s Stats Affected: N/A Description:
The owner of the charm runs their thumb over the webbed charm whispering the words "silent death" to activate this ability. Behind them will stand a six-meter-tall spider made of obsidian and onyx with eight eyes made with citrine. Those who get somewhat close will believe that it has hairs on parts of its body but only when getting closer will they notice that it is very fine shards of smoked quartz. This spider is a predator and has several ways of attacking, these being its legs, pedipalp, fangs or biting, strangely enough, these golems even have a unique quirk that they can create a web of a random coloured gemstone (once chosen this will not change). It doesn't matter how many times or different ways it hits a single target in a round it will only deal intermediate damage. The maximum number of these golems that can be created at a time is four with the use of the ammo rules. This golem is large enough that it can be used as a mode of transportation which can carry up to two passengers per golem but its speed will drop to 10m/s while doing so. Due to the animal, the golem is fashioned after it can climb up walls and scurry over ceilings even while being used as a mode of transportation. This golem can be upgraded if a person has the correct element.
[attr="class","raescroll"] This was the first time Jevi would attend a Star Festival as an actual Magic Knight. In fact, he hadn’t been to the Star Festival since he ran away from home. The thought of being spotted by his father was simply something he did not want to risk. So, for the past three Star Festivals Jevi had stayed within the Forsaken Region with the commoners he found a home with. This year was different, and he was actually going to attend the events once more. It was a celebration to commend the Magic Knights that worked tirelessly to protect Clover, and he was now one of them. While he had not done as much as others, he knew the Crimson Lion squad had done amazing as always. They were usually in the top three squads from what he remembered, though he wondered how this year would play out. He had certainly contributed, of that there was no question, but was it enough for them to truly stand out above the other squads? Then again, it was more of a curiosity than anything else as Jevi was not exactly competitive when it came to this aspect of being a Magic Knight. The better they all did, the better it was for Clover, and that was all that mattered. He was but a cog in the wheel, and that was just fine with him. [break][break] At the moment he was finishing up his outfit. He was wearing a dark blue top, white pants and dark blue boots. The accents were mostly gold and white, which fit his grimoire which was in its holster at his right hip. To finish up the outfit he wore a white cape that fell to his knees and was held together at this chest with another golden ornament. It was not his magic knight mantle, but he had grown so used to wearing it that the cape gave him some level of comfort. It also nicely hid away his grimoire from prying eyes for the most part. When he was finally done getting dressed he went downstairs where his parents were waiting as well, since they were going to the festival too. Saki had a bright smile on her face seeing her son all dressed up. It was not a sight she got to see often, especially as of late when he was usually wearing his workout gear. “You clean up so nice, dear. You really ought to dress up more often.” Jevi playfully rolled his eyes, but had a smile on his face. “Thanks mom, but I can’t really train in outfits like these.” His father interjected, his tone as dismissive as usual. “If we are all ready, then let’s get going. We are already late.” Jevi sighed softly. He knew his father was a punctual man, but it still felt like it was a personal grudge he held against Jevi for everything that he had done. It’s not like he didn’t understand his father, but he had been working hard to make up for his mistakes. Would he ever come around? It was something that Jevi doubted quite a bit. [break][break] In either case, the three of them got into the family’s carriage and made their way to the capital to take part in the many events. They were not going to stick together, most likely, but it was important to show their faces. Doubly so for Jevi as a magic knight. Once they arrived, Jevi got out of the carriage first and helped his mother out of it by extending his hand and letting her land gently on the ground. Before fully letting go, he made sure she had found her balance on her heels with a smile. “Thank you, deary.” Saki smiled as Jevi let go of her. “You’re welcome, mother.” He leaned in and gave her a gentle peck on her cheek before fully pulling away. “I’ll see you both later on, enjoy the festivities. I’m going to see if I can find some of my colleagues.” His father, Daki, scoffed a little at this, but he did keep his mouth shut for once. Jevi had noticed, but he was not going to start a scene right here and now. Not today, and not in front of all these other people. The Suru family was broken, there was no doubt about that, but he would do his best to keep that knowledge from the public. Right now it was only Hinota who knew how bad things truly were, and he was hopeful she could stay out of it from now on. [break][break] With all that being said and done, Jevi made his way around the festival without truly knowing where he was going. He was enjoying the atmosphere, looking around and talking with people who he ran into. Eventually he found his way to the ballroom where people were dancing to beautiful music played by a live orchestra. Thankfully he had at least been taught the basics, and considering how much he practiced his steps when sword fighting he was not too shabby at it. While most people were already dancing with a partner, one particular individual stood out to Jevi. There was a girl with striking pink hair and a gorgeous purple and black dress standing all by herself to the sidelines. The gentleman inside of him knew what to do, and so there was no real second thought as he made his way over to the girl. With his right hand over his heart he gave her a small bow as he spoke. “A gorgeous dress like that should not be wasted on the sidelines of the ballroom, should it now?” As he straightened himself up again from his bow, he extended his hand for her to take if she wished. “So, may I have this dance?”

[attr="class","raescroll2"] Jevi asks Saeka to dance.
Rank & Element: Junior ¦ Wood[break] Class & Type: Enchanted ¦ Trinket[break] Magic Specializations: Physical Reinforcement[break] Appearance & Lore:[break] Due to the lunar year just passing, a craftsman in the town of Hage teaching a new class of apprentices decided to make it a class project. They were to make small trinkets out of oak that look like oxen as with all learners things didn't go as planned and they ended up making derpy looking oxen. The shopkeeper decided to buy everything as she found out that all the proceeds were going to help with the rebuilding of Kikka.[break] Abilities:
Type & Uses: Enchanted[break] Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Physical Reinforcement[break] Mana Cost: Not applicable[break] Range & Speed: Not applicable[break] Stats Affected: 25% junior buff to strength[break] Description:[break] The holder of this small trinket seems to hold the strength of an oxen allowing them to deal a bit more damage than is normal. Unlike normal items this item seems to grow in strength the stronger the bond it has with the owner much like a spirit or relic allowing this to be trained up to a grand ability. Once bought it is bound to the account it is on and can't be sold back to the store. This item can be bought only once.
Saeka was not looking to dance with anyone in particular. There were targets of all shapes and sizes around the ballroom. There were magic knights, which cut down the grab pot a lot. She could go around and kill magic knights without issue, however the issue that would come is the awareness of her existence, bring investigations to herself and the possibilty of her family and the entire network within the underbelly being found out. No. As much as she wanted to mess with an actual prey that could fight back and give her a reason to add to her kill room and satisfy her dwindling need to kill. [break][break] It felt werid feeling the need fading as if losing a phase of her life to open a new one. She wasn't ready to stop. She couldn't imagine being a simple citizen of clover instead of a predator within the shadows. She couldn't imagine to be someone's life working a job or tending to kids. That was not her life. that life was a hell in her eyes. She would rather have death then that caged existence. But the more she seemed to live this facade and act it, the more that once viewed hell was growing more welcoming. She must be getting sick. There is no way she would ever welcome that life. [break][break] She watched, waiting for any oddly waiting males on the side, not being accompanied or wanted by anyone at the dance. She needed someone who was lonely. Where was one at? She snapped her attention back to reality to see a white haired male standing infront of her, dressed as nobility from what she can tell. he was a gentleman and a smooth talker. that she was sure when she heard his words and ask for a dance with her. Every part of her said no, to decline the dance. to just walk away and ignore the advancement. He wasn't a target, he wasn't on her list for her next prey. However her facade shut the predator side of her up by taking his hand. She had to look the part and be the part. This was the life she had to convey and only a werido would decline. [break][break] "oh this dress? I guess your right, my mother got it for me and I thought today was the best choice to wear it."She lied sweetly brushing her hair behind her ear looking towards him as her free hand felt over her skirt as she smiled " I would love to have a dance." She said with a smile feeling her preadtor side annoyed and angry with this choice. [break][break]

[attr="class","raescroll"] Obviously, Jevi was completely and utterly unaware of what was going on inside of Saeka’s mind. The fact she was looking for an easy target to kill was something that would never cross his mind, because all he saw was a young woman who was all by herself at a social gathering. Perhaps she was a little shy, or maybe she was just waiting for someone to approach her and ask her to dance. She was quite a beautiful lady, it would not be unreasonable to think that many men would be too shy to ask for a dance. However, if there was one thing Jevi was not it was shy. While many would likely see it as flirting, to him he was simply being the gentleman and extending a helping hand. The reason he rarely struggled when it came to talking to girls, was because he was never actually looking for more. He was genuinely being a nice and caring person. That’s also why things with Hinota did not go smoothly whatsoever. It was not just their cultural differences, it was because he was trying harder for her which made him stumble and fall with every step. Saeka was not a girl he was romantically interested in, so just being himself came naturally as was shown in his smooth talk and gestures. If this was Hinota, he would have never come up with a line like that. He’d have his tongue twisted unable to come up with the proper words to say. [break][break] The comment on her dress did not go unnoticed, as Saeka sweetly told him how her mother had bought it for her, and she simply felt today was the best day to wear it. He returned her smile as he gently held her hand in his, listening attentively to the woman. “Then you both have excellent taste.” It was not unexpected to Jevi that Saeka would accept his offer to dance, considering Saeka must have gone to this part of the Star Festival for a reason and simply lacked a partner. “Well, I’d be honored to oblige. I’m Jevi Suru, and to whom do I owe this fine pleasure?” His gentle smile never left his face as he lead Saeka to the dancefloor to join in with the ongoing dance. It was classic ballroom dancing, nothing too special, which made stepping in to join that much easier. His footwork was graceful, almost effortless. It took a small moment to get used to it once more, but after the first couple of seconds Jevi was leading the dance as if he had never done anything else. “You must be used to these kinds of dances, I cannot remember the last time I had such an easy time leading my dance partner.” It was always proper to flatter the lady, instead of boasting about yourself. There were many areas in which Jevi lacked and still had to learn, but when it came to chivalry he needed no help. [break][break] The dance continued without issue, as Jevi followed the proper movements and twirled Saeka effortlessly when needed. His one hand, of course, stayed neatly above her hip, so he would not touch her in any inappropriate way. After a couple of minutes, the music died down for a short intermission for the orchestra before they’d continue with other music and styles of dances. As everyone stopped their dance and clapped for the orchestra, so did Jevi with a smile on his face. He had clearly enjoyed himself just now. He turned to look at Saeka once more as he spoke. “Well, that was fun, wasn’t it?” He could not help but wonder if Saeka had come here alone, or had some friends to return to, and his curiosity got the better of him. “So did you come to the Festival all by yourself? If so, I’d be happy to keep you company if you’d like me to.” After all, he himself had not ran into anyone he knew yet either like he had expected to. That was all fine with him, though, since he had little issue getting along with most people. If push came to shove he could always go out to the Festival grounds and entertain the children by playing hide-and-seek or something of the sort. There was plenty to do, and he was certain he wouldn’t be bored. Though, it would be more fun with more people present, of course.

Aura stretched once the carriage arrived, the girl hopping down gracefully off of it before tossing a coin to the driver with a smile. A fake smile but she was good at faking such things. The young woman was there in a more social setting, though she still had her Blue Rose mantle; it was situated as an arm band for the day so it didn't cover up the dress she was wearing. White with plenty of blue accents she felt like it fit her well, especially with the flowers. Well in hindsight it definitely fit her as a Blue Rose as well. Enough about that though, the young woman was there solo in a dress that would probably draw attention. Her hand rested lightly on the hilt of the blade at her side, a soft sigh escaping her. Part of her found it comforting that she had a run in with a man that had somehow gotten her mother's sword, it had to be fate that it made its way back to her.
It was also oddly calming having it by her side, even if it was currently tied in a ceremonial fashion. It was going to be annoying to draw if she needed to but she also highly doubted that need would arise. Instead she was going to treat it as a very pretty accessory at her side, which was not entirely false. She looked out through the crowds, keeping to herself for the most part, though offering small smiles when people greeted her. Was she nervous? Of course, she was out and about amongst strangers, but it also meant it was harder for anyone to try anything because she could just scream if needed. The Flower Fete had events that felt more secluded, it was easier for her to feel crowded by the same person being overly friendly or giving her the creeps.
There was one place that she definitely wanted to check out though, the dances. She was a dancer at heart, having learned how to dance before she learned how to sing from her mother. It came naturally to her, she loved being around it to see if there was anything she could incorporate into her own movements and dances. "Wonder if there is going to be anyone to learn from there…" she mused to herself, making her way through the crowds until she was on the outskirts of the area that had been taken over by those looking to dance the day away. For now she was going to just observe, swaying gently to the beat of the music present.

Rank & Element: Junior Class & Type: Accessory Magic Specializations: N/A Appearance & Lore: The Magic Knight Mantle is an Item in which Magic Knights wear to show the Squad that are in. Each Squad has a different color Mantle along with their own squad logo as well. When these items were built they were made out of a special material that allows them to be unbreakable from any sort of attack, but does not block the wearer from any attacks. Magic Knights of the Clover Kingdom has worn these Mantles for hundreds of years. Abilities:
An elegant looking two handed sword made of silver, gold and what appears to be imbedded with lapras at the hilt and blade. It is easy to say that this blade was made with a keen eye for detail and was made as a labour of love. When held by its owner though it will glow a pale blue in certain parts of the hilt and blade while having an aura that seems to emanate from the blade itself.
Lore:
In noble and common families alike family heirlooms are often created at the beginning of the family tree and handed down from one generation to the next. This sword is no different, it does have a crest of a noble house on it however no historical books show it matching to any house common or otherwise making this blade a truly forgotten and enigmatic heirloom.
Abilities:
The accepted owner of the Forsaken Heirloom is granted the Full Blitz perk while wielding the longsword.
Name of the Ability Ancestral Spirits Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 (uses) ¦ 2 (overheating) Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Attack Creation Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 25m ¦ 10 m/s Stats Affected: +2 Power Description: The sword itself seems to almost become an extension of its wielder which is clear the moment it is held and the calming pale blue aura can be seen emanating from it. The user need only speak the words "Ancestors guide me" then use the sword as it was intended to activate this ability. When slashing or stabbing it will release a small arc of pale blue mana of two meters wide towards its designated target, with the use of ammo rules several more of these pale blue attack arcs can be created per round.
Name of the Ability Generational Gifts Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 (uses) ¦ 2 (overheating) Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Attack Creation ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 25m ¦ 10 m/s Stats Affected: Junior Strength Buff Description: This sword seemingly acts a little strange as if drawing the strength of those who wielded it before the current owner. To activate this ability they must draw their own blood on the side of the blade that correlates to their prominent hand and then run it down the blade itself. Once active they need only use the blade as intended, when slashing it will release three tight lines 2m long by one inch thick then thrusting forward it will send it in the general direction of the enemy. With the use of the ammo rules, additional tri-slashes can be created. As stated above the sword acts strangely, the owner will find if they are disarmed while this ability is active and the sword is still within 10m of them their strength would have miraculously increased as if those who held the sword before them are attempting to aid them.
Name of the Ability: Pride of the Ancestors Type & Uses: Passive Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: -- ¦ -- Range & Speed: Self ¦ -- Stats Affected: +5 m/s Description: The wielder will find themselves shimmering with a very soft pale blue white light that is almost completely translucent, this will grant the wearer a passive +2 m/s to speed however this ability does not become active until the ability is trained to intermediate. As this is a passive the abilities word count will be added to the item itself so it will grow at the same time, however, due to the full blitz perk they will still find themselves +5 m/s faster.
Whatever this man's deal was. she was impressed at how much of a gentleman he was being. He wasn't boasting or being charming, just being some gentleman. She wasn't really planning on a dance, more just focused on finding a target. However it seemed her search would have to wait as she accepted his offer for a dance. After all, someone would possbly find her odd to turn down a dance only to never dance the entire day. She followed him out feeling her dress with her free hand. it was a dress she choose for such occasions. it was a talking point and eye catcher, perfect for luring a target or making a target. [break][break] She listened to him feeling honored to having the dance, even speaking of who he was. One Jevi Suru. She smiled as she cutersy " Saya Zoraki, the honor is all mine Jevi Suru."She spoke standing back up as she followed along allowing him to lead her on to the dancefloor to join in with the classic ballroom dance. She hated these dances, they were boring in her opinion enspecially when allowing a clutse to be her partner. Luckly it seemed Jevi was no such man. He seemed rusty for the first few seconds, but he quickly kicked that rust to the curve. She had no problem following and moving in effortlessly, joining a dance was just like stalking, you flow into the crowd and look like everyone else. Nothing too it. [break][break] She kept watch of him as she followed foot as she nodded to his acknowledgement that she must be use to these dances and his own knowledge of the last time he joined "I always come to these festivals. I just love the gatherings, the dances, the music, all the beautiful memories of fun at these."She replied sweetly "your not half bad for choosing me, i know all the dances by heart."She added with a smile. [break][break] She continued the dance without an issue. Following every move, ever twist and every turn allowing him to lead and turn her in time with everyone else. she was not once for touch but for the time being she was going to allow his hand as long as it remained glued to above her hip. He was a gentleman so far, she was going to give him that benefit of the doubt he would remain such. [break][break] They slowed their dance to the stop for a couple of mintues as the orchesta stopped for an intermission. she followed along clapping with everyone in apperciation of the music. She turned her attention back to jevi as she listened to him nodding "that was indeed fun and yes I am often alone as sometimes i love just being lost in the enviroment."she spoke being truthful in a way. [break][break] She then shaked her head as she laced her fingers behind her back as she acted shyly "Well you don't have to put yourself out there by accompany me around. I am sure you have better places to be then entertaining a stranger."She said with a smile. " I wouldn't mind company if you have none yourself. After all, Mother always says festivals are meant to be with others."She sid with a smile. She didn't know if she would leave the dances to do anything else. maybe she would spend the festival with somebody this time around.
Rank & Element: Junior ¦ Air Pressure ¦ Mist Class & Type: Relic ¦ Accessory (Necklace) Magic Specializations: Sensory ¦ Healing ¦ Physical Reinforcement Appearance: Adunel Lerovup is a simple yet elegant necklace that sits on a delicate silver chain. The pendant itself is around an inch tall by half an inch wide, it is a moonstone surrounded by silver filigree with several silver leaves and small pearls to add to its beauty.
Junior Lore: The creation of this item was thought to be within the Diamond kingdom by a holy man, it isn't been proven one way or another if this is indeed the cage. The former heir to the Zhongli was doing some personal training in the outskirts near the Heart Kingdom when she came across an injured child. The child was to old to take home and so did her best to patch them up, when they regained consciousness they explained what happened and asked for her to take them home. Even though she didn't want to she didn't want to have a child's blood on her hands and so agreed.
When the child was returned she was about to leave but due to the relief of the parents, they insisted on giving her something they considered just as valuable and so was given the necklace. They insisted it wasn't much but in comparison to what she had returned to them, as not to offend them she accepted with every intention of throwing it away, however, she decided against it and so went to the black market to get it appraised and tested. She found out it was indeed valuable and so had it placed in a wooden box with Saeka's name written on top with a note that it was only to be given on her fifteenth birthday so she could appreciate it.
Little did any of the family know that the young heiress would never be there to see their youngest sister's reaction when opening the gift.
Intermediate Lore: ~Get the relic to intermediate to unlock~ Senior Lore: ~Get the relic to Senior to unlock~ Grand Lore: ~Get the relic to Grand to unlock~
Adunel Lerovup is unique in many ways, from the fact it has two elements instead of one, three specializations instead of the normal two and four abilities instead of the normal three, this gives it a perceived edge over many other items because of this fact. In addition to this, any training done by its wearer will grant stats and spell points at a ratio of 1 per 1,500 words as well as once per page allowing it to redirect a spell of the same rank as the item or lower without a clash.
Name of the Ability Z'ar Tobor Type & Uses: Flow¦ 3 Rounds Active ¦ 2 Round Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Healing ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 15 Range & Speed: Self ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: +2 m/s Speed Description: Saying this ability's name is enough to activate it. The wearer of the necklace gains a light mist around their body allowing them to feel refreshed, due to this sensation they are able to move quicker than normal. A secondary effect of this refreshing mist is that the wearer will be healed for junior rank damage, this healing is still in its infancy and so can only heal grazes, minor cuts, bruises and scratches. In addition to this, it will actively use the clashing rules to try and cleanse debuffs, poisons, toxins and other negative effects.
Name of the Ability Hawga Kagh Ehtaha Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 Rounds Active ¦ 2 Rounda Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Sensory (Tracking) Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 25m (+sensory x2) ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: Description: Saying this ability's name is enough to activate it. This tracking spell is a unique one even among one of its kind as usually physical contact is needed to place the marker, where this can still be applied the wearer of the necklace can use their air pressure to send a bolt of air around the size of an average sized dinner plate in the direction of the one they want to track. Due to the nature of Air Pressure if it makes contact with its intended target it will be knocked back 2m with an additional 5m being added for every 10 strength they have, it, of course, would do no damage allowing the person to believe that it was just a dud spell. Regardless of if it is a touch or a dinner plate-sized orb that hits them an invisible mark in the shape of a lilac scythe would be left. This mark can only be seen with the right amount of sensory or higher.
This mark allows the wearer to track their target over a large distance without requiring a map spell that could possibly be seen to be used. With the use of ammo rules, additional marks can be created allowing for several targets to be tracked at once.
Name of the Ability Lorkor Hofiba Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 Rounds Active ¦ 2 Rounds Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Physical Reinforcement ¦ Sensory (Illusion) Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 10m ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: -2 Sensory ¦ +2m/s speed (self) Description: Whispering the ability's name is enough to activate it. The moment this is done what appears to be a thick wind-filled lilac fog seems to fill the area making it almost if not impossible to see for a single round using the blinding rules, regardless of whether they are blinded or not their mana senses would be reacting strangely. They may not be able to feel a spell coming at times and times that they do feel mana it could be coming from the wrong direction, this includes when they use their own spells. The sensory required to see through the illusion is 10 +2 for every 15 control that the wearer has (if the wearer has the advanced perk puppet master this is reduced to +2 for every 10 control) this can be reduced lower if another sensory mage uses a map spell as shown inside the sensory magic spec. The requirement to see-through the spell will decrease by 2 every round (this will change to every second round if the wearer has the advanced perk shattered psyche). As the illusion is still in its infancy there is a lot of unknown growth it can do. The wearer will find that while they are inside the fog that their speed has slightly increased as they feel a stronger air current around their feet.
Name of the Ability Malakta Lilaste Type & Uses: -- ¦ -- ¦ -- Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: -- ¦ -- Range & Speed: Self ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: Description: 1/2 Junior rank strength buff This ability passively grants 1/2 Junior rank strength to physical attacks around their hands a faint wind can be felt with the right amount of sensory the aura of the wind can be seen to be lilac in colour. Due to the nature of air pressure, any physical hit the wearer lands causes a knockback equal to 2m with an additional 5m being added for every 10 strength the wearer has. Due to this being a passive ability it will grow with the necklace and so its word count will be added to what the word count required to advance the item itself.
Rank & Element: Junior ¦ Shadow Class & Type: Magic ¦ Accessory (Hair bow) Magic Specializations: Transformation Appearance & Lore: A periwinkle silk and lace ribbon fashioned into a double hair bow around three inches wide and one and a half inches in height with a double tail that matches the width of the bow. Although, due to the nature of the specialization it has it may change colour depending on what the wearer wants. near the centre of the bow, there is a small gold and moonstone charm around half the size of a pinky nail.
If a person was to look at the owner of this particular bow they would see nothing but a cute, naive and innocent young noblewoman, what they don't know is that the owner is actually a stone-cold manipulator and killer who has likely in the initial second of meeting a person decided how they would be of best use to her, several ways to kill them and how to dispose of their body. The bow was given to Saeka by her elder brother Xue on her fifteenth birthday, it is like its owner and holds a deadly secret that only Saeka and Xue know. Abilities: While worn the owner of Hidden Secrets has access to the advanced perk Mystic's touch
Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 rounds active ¦ 2 rounds cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Transformation (Temperature Changing) Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 10m (AoE) ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: -- Description: Pulling the golden moonstone charm before gripping and pulling the hairbow out of her hair will cause the bow itself to be shrouded in a wispy shadow for a moment before it begins to extend, when it fades what lays in its wake is an ornate 8" double-sided serrated, yet lightweight dagger which is perfectly balanced for the user. Around the blade itself are wisps of shadow but after a brief few seconds it seems to transform leaving lilac wisps of wind. The blade is classed as a physical weapon and will do Junior rank damage as such. It has the added benefit of warming or cooling the area with the light breeze although it will smell of lilac.
Rank & Element: Intermediate ¦ Gemstone Class & Type: Magic ¦ Trinket (Charm) Magic Specializations: Golem Creation Appearance: This is a delicate silver charm slightly bigger than a thumbnail with an obsidian inlay to make it seem like a spider's web.
History: To get into the festive spirit the shopkeeper had these charms made as a sweet treat with a trick hidden inside. She has people sign a liability waiver and hopes no one they know has arachnophobia.
Name of the Ability: Black Widow Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 4 Rounds ¦ 3 Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Intermediate ¦ Golem Creation Mana Cost: 15 ¦ 8 Range & Speed: 40m ¦ 20 m/s Stats Affected: N/A Description:
The owner of the charm runs their thumb over the webbed charm whispering the words "silent death" to activate this ability. Behind them will stand a six-meter-tall spider made of obsidian and onyx with eight eyes made with citrine. Those who get somewhat close will believe that it has hairs on parts of its body but only when getting closer will they notice that it is very fine shards of smoked quartz. This spider is a predator and has several ways of attacking, these being its legs, pedipalp, fangs or biting, strangely enough, these golems even have a unique quirk that they can create a web of a random coloured gemstone (once chosen this will not change). It doesn't matter how many times or different ways it hits a single target in a round it will only deal intermediate damage. The maximum number of these golems that can be created at a time is four with the use of the ammo rules. This golem is large enough that it can be used as a mode of transportation which can carry up to two passengers per golem but its speed will drop to 10m/s while doing so. Due to the animal, the golem is fashioned after it can climb up walls and scurry over ceilings even while being used as a mode of transportation. This golem can be upgraded if a person has the correct element.
[attr="class","raescroll"] Just before Jevi would take his newfound dance partner to the dancefloor, he introduced himself and asked for the young lady’s name. She introduced herself as Saya Zoraki, giving him a curtsy as she said the honor was all hers. “A pleasure to meet you, Saya.” Jevi would lead her to the dancefloor by the hand, and while it took a couple of seconds for him to get back into the swing of things, literally and figuratively, he quickly picked up the steps to the dance as if it was second nature and began to lead Saya. The young lady was clearly used to these dances, and Jevi complimented her on how easy it was for him to lead her because of it. It was a way to flatter her, instead of singing his own praises. While dancing she commented that she always came to these kinds of festivals as she loved the gatherings, dances and music. She had beautiful memories of these events, and Jevi replied to her with a smile. “Then I hope I can become one of those beautiful memories as well.” They continued to dance, and Jevi could not help but chuckle when she mentioned he had made a good choice in picking her for a dance partner. “So it seems, I was lucky you were not already taken by someone else.” It was a fun time dancing, at least for him, and as the music stopped for an intermission Jevi clapped along with everyone else for the orchestra who provided them with such beautiful songs. [break][break] The lull in the dances gave them an opportunity to get acquainted with one another further, and so Jevi noted how much fun it had been while asking if she had come here all by herself today. If so, they could hang out together since he was essentially by himself too. “I can understand that. It can be quite peaceful to be with just your own thoughts at times.” He was kind of the same for the most part. Even when in conversation with another, he could get lost in his own thoughts just like that. That often happened when the conversation at hand gave him something to ponder about, and he usually felt guilty for essentially ignoring his conversation partner when it happened. It was not in purpose, he was just someone who ended up overthinking most things. Saya seemed to be a bit shy if the way she acted was anything to go by, as she reassured him that he did not need to entertain a stranger if he had better places to be. That being said, she did not mind the company if he had none himself, especially since her mother had taught her that festivals were meant to be enjoyed with others. “Well, I am here by myself too. Well, my parents are around somewhere, but I told them we’d meet up later, so I’m free and I’d be delighted to keep you company for the day, Saya.” It was obvious that Saya would enjoy spending time with others around, but was simply too shy to ask for it directly. Perhaps that’s why she had been at the sidelines just now. [break][break] Since there was an intermission going on right now, they could either wait here for the orchestra to resume their playing, or find something else to do around the Star Festival. There had been plenty of events planned, so it should not be too hard to find some form of entertainment. “Would you like to stay here and dance some more once the music resumes, or do you prefer to leave and check out some of the other events that were planned?” As a gentleman should he left the choice with the lady, though looked around to see what other people were doing. Some of them were leaving the dancefloor, others simply chatted with their dance partner and remained on the dancefloor like himself and Saya. As he looked around the room, his eyes fell on a familiar face in Aura who had also clearly picked a dress suitable for dancing. He remembered her saying she had a background in dancing and music, so it did not come as a surprise to see her here. Jevi shot the blonde a smile, giving her a wave to acknowledge her, though he knew she was rather cold and distant towards him for some reason and so he would not intrude on her personal space by going up to her. “I suppose I should not be surprised to see a fellow magic knight here today.” He spoke in a relaxed tone of voice to Saya, so she understood why he had waved to a to him seemingly unfamiliar girl in the crowd.

The performer was mulling over what she was seeing before shaking her head a little. No, these were just people having fun, nothing more. The idea of coming here to see anything that could inspire her had probably been the wrong choice, though it wasn't like she had much else to do. Days off were rare and a festival was a good time to get out and work on her issues with immersion. Throwing herself right into these situations felt wrong but she knew she needed to. The girl lightly tapped her chin in thought, mulling over what to do now. Inspiration wasn't going to be something she came across so trying to find a way to comfortably mingle was the next best option. But how?
If she showed off her dance she'd probably draw eyes, too many eyes to be comfortable. Instead maybe she could look for a familiar face? There had to be some kind of familiar face in the crowd right? Even if it was just a fellow Blue Rose or something, maybe someone she had worked with? Sure, it hadn't been that many people yet but it wasn't like she hadn't been putting herself out there to an extent. The young woman spotted a wave, a tilt of her head following as she gave them a curious glance. Ah, the Noble boy that she had figured had a crush on someone, at least that's what she thought he had been talking to Sumire about. Sure she wasn't interested in the dating scene or anything but even she could tell what was going on, even if she wasn't entirely sure of the details.
It was still a familiar face though, one that Aura at least knew wouldn't try anything shady, at least as far as she could tell. She let out an internal sigh, keeping a more stoic face before making her way towards the two. She wasn't sure if there was some kind of date going on or anything, but greeting at the very least could shake any awkwardness for the girl he was with. At least she figured there could be awkwardness from the random wave to her. Did she necessarily want to approach a man like this? Not really, it was too friendly for her but she also knew she probably needed to. Not pushing herself out of her comfort zone was not a good idea.
"Good day Jevi, never thought you would be the dancing type. I hope I'm not interrupting something important." She kept a more casual demeanor, not really smiling but at least keeping a friendly air about her. It was the least she could do, it wasn't like he had creeped on her or tried giving her any weird gifts.

The user need only speak the words "Ancestors guide me" then use the sword as it was intended to activate this ability. When slashing or stabbing it will release a small arc of pale blue mana of two meters wide towards its designated target, with the use of ammo rules several more of these pale blue attack arcs can be created per round.
Name of the Ability Generational Gifts Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 (uses) ¦ 2 (overheating) Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Attack Creation ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 25m ¦ 10 m/s Stats Affected: Junior Strength Buff Description: This sword seemingly acts a little strange as if drawing the strength of those who wielded it before the current owner. To activate this ability they must draw their own blood on the side of the blade that correlates to their prominent hand and then run it down the blade itself. Once active they need only use the blade as intended, when slashing it will release three tight lines 2m long by one inch thick then thrusting forward it will send it in the general direction of the enemy. With the use of the ammo rules, additional tri-slashes can be created. As stated above the sword acts strangely, the owner will find if they are disarmed while this ability is active and the sword is still within 10m of them their strength would have miraculously increased as if those who held the sword before them are attempting to aid them.
Name of the Ability: Pride of the Ancestors Type & Uses: Passive Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: -- ¦ -- Range & Speed: Self ¦ -- Stats Affected: +5 m/s Description: The wielder will find themselves shimmering with a very soft pale blue white light that is almost completely translucent, this will grant the wearer a passive +2 m/s to speed however this ability does not become active until the ability is trained to intermediate. As this is a passive the abilities word count will be added to the item itself so it will grow at the same time, however, due to the full blitz perk they will still find themselves +5 m/s faster.
Post by Jirou Yuiee✾ on Sept 14, 2024 19:05:00 GMT -5
To say jirou was beyond well dressed was an understatement of grand orders. His two cherub-like innocence-filled attendents walked in fastly, holding each others hands. Their clothing made to appear to be made of fine silks befitting noble children. A they made their way into the dance, Jirou knew his personal guard he assigned to them was already watching them so he need not concern himself with them for the rest of the night, as he knew they were safe. When he would enter the dance hed enter it in such a fashion that the swelling of the music would be his entrance note, making his appearance even more grand then almost anything youd find in this backwards country called a kingdom. His clothing was a silk of the highest grade with enchantments that made it not only nearly impossible to stain or burn or rip, but that also caused it to somehow twinke like little stars against the pure white snow.
In his left hand he carried a fan of equal purity with the same effect, however the fan was decorated with magical jewels that seemed to move and shift through the fan making the image of a mighty Loong dragon with colors of the rainbow and 5 taloned hands gripping a giant pearl in the shape of the Known World. In his other hand was nothing, however three of his fingers, his middle, his ring finger, and his pinkie were covered with a pure jade finger guard, each one a jade of different colors all of which he had made using the highest degree of gemstone magic he could find in the markets. His other hand also had the guards making it look like the pure whiteness of light was fracturing into the jade colors of his finger guards through a prism. The green however was Located not on his fingers but in his eyes, the very jade he was naturally born with completed the rainbow theme as he smiled enterng the dance.
This was not part of her plans for the day. Just a simple want to hopefully re- feel the monster inside her. To find a prey, end them, then to be satisfied and happy to be herself again. yet here she was deciding to spend the day with a literal magic knight. What the hell was wrong with her, there had to be something wrong with her. She was actually enjoying this star festival, the company of another. She had to seriously be sick right? At least she would have thought that but at the moment her only thoughts were on the magic knight infront of her. [break][break] She was amazed at the fact no one seemed to be bothered by her presence, not feeling a predator among them. Which was a good thing. She needed to remain as normal as possible. Which was easy when speaking with the literal enemy that could arrest her or kill her if they knew how many skeletons were in her closet. She smiled having just gotten introductions out of the way along with the dance so far she was brought with another question, if she wanted to spend the day with him. That was an interesting question in her mind. She should say no, make up some excuse why. However that wasn't what would come out of her mouth "Oh uh I don't mind spending the day with you nor do i mind wherever we go. I had no plans of any sort." She spoke pulling some of her bangs behind her ear as she rested a hand around his arm following him off the dance floor seeing him wave to another girl. He then spoke to her , introducing her as another magic knight. Wonderful, she got to hang with two literal enemies. [break][break] She saw the female moved towards them as saeka kept her soft smile on her face looking the girl up and down, she wasn't too bad looking, she was pretty in terms of female standards, clean, wearing dresses that fit her. Not bad in saeka's book. She stood quietly listening to the girl as she shaked her head " No you were not interupting anything, I was just getting to now Lord Suru since he asked me to a dance. I am Saya, Saya Zaraki. It is a pleasure to meet you."She spoke before a glint caught her eye causing her to turn to find the most rainbow colored male she had ever seen. There was only one man alive that she knew would willingly dress like that and unfortunately her uncle was his family's steward as she acted to sneeze covering her noes into the crook of her arm to hide the want to slap her hand so hard on her face at the sight of him. [break][break] She knew of the yuiee and her family ties to them within secretcy. she knew of the various princes and princess of the yuiee from rumors, from details and just from what she has observed around clover. Hino was weak in her opinion when it comes to mindset. While she understood the want to be a pacifist, there was a time and place that one must bathe in the blood of those they slained. She envied the flower mage for never having to feel the need to dirty her hands just to calm the hungry beast inside or quite the voices and need to be accepted. Ozma was, form what she seen, more willing to adapt and hide among the commoners and noble. While he was a prince and had nice outfits, he fitted much better and more pleasing to her eye. Then you had jirou. The literal prince, god, being-thing that he thought he was. She was sure there was some saying that many spoke of the man. She felt disgusted with people like him. He was much too out there, giving the allure of grandure yet not once has he been seen with a woman on his arm, or being kind to anyone but the 'servants' he happened to help, though anyone who knew what to look for in someone's body language would know the man is dangerious and not in the scary way. [break][break] "So sorry."She said patting her noes "I felt a sudden sneeze come on."She spoke turning away from him. As long as she didn't have to deal with him, the better off this day would be.

Rank & Element: Junior ¦ Air Pressure ¦ Mist Class & Type: Relic ¦ Accessory (Necklace) Magic Specializations: Sensory ¦ Healing ¦ Physical Reinforcement Appearance: Adunel Lerovup is a simple yet elegant necklace that sits on a delicate silver chain. The pendant itself is around an inch tall by half an inch wide, it is a moonstone surrounded by silver filigree with several silver leaves and small pearls to add to its beauty.
Junior Lore: The creation of this item was thought to be within the Diamond kingdom by a holy man, it isn't been proven one way or another if this is indeed the cage. The former heir to the Zhongli was doing some personal training in the outskirts near the Heart Kingdom when she came across an injured child. The child was to old to take home and so did her best to patch them up, when they regained consciousness they explained what happened and asked for her to take them home. Even though she didn't want to she didn't want to have a child's blood on her hands and so agreed.
When the child was returned she was about to leave but due to the relief of the parents, they insisted on giving her something they considered just as valuable and so was given the necklace. They insisted it wasn't much but in comparison to what she had returned to them, as not to offend them she accepted with every intention of throwing it away, however, she decided against it and so went to the black market to get it appraised and tested. She found out it was indeed valuable and so had it placed in a wooden box with Saeka's name written on top with a note that it was only to be given on her fifteenth birthday so she could appreciate it.
Little did any of the family know that the young heiress would never be there to see their youngest sister's reaction when opening the gift.
Intermediate Lore: ~Get the relic to intermediate to unlock~ Senior Lore: ~Get the relic to Senior to unlock~ Grand Lore: ~Get the relic to Grand to unlock~
Adunel Lerovup is unique in many ways, from the fact it has two elements instead of one, three specializations instead of the normal two and four abilities instead of the normal three, this gives it a perceived edge over many other items because of this fact. In addition to this, any training done by its wearer will grant stats and spell points at a ratio of 1 per 1,500 words as well as once per page allowing it to redirect a spell of the same rank as the item or lower without a clash.
Name of the Ability Z'ar Tobor Type & Uses: Flow¦ 3 Rounds Active ¦ 2 Round Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Healing ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 15 Range & Speed: Self ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: +2 m/s Speed Description: Saying this ability's name is enough to activate it. The wearer of the necklace gains a light mist around their body allowing them to feel refreshed, due to this sensation they are able to move quicker than normal. A secondary effect of this refreshing mist is that the wearer will be healed for junior rank damage, this healing is still in its infancy and so can only heal grazes, minor cuts, bruises and scratches. In addition to this, it will actively use the clashing rules to try and cleanse debuffs, poisons, toxins and other negative effects.
Name of the Ability Hawga Kagh Ehtaha Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 Rounds Active ¦ 2 Rounda Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Sensory (Tracking) Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 25m (+sensory x2) ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: Description: Saying this ability's name is enough to activate it. This tracking spell is a unique one even among one of its kind as usually physical contact is needed to place the marker, where this can still be applied the wearer of the necklace can use their air pressure to send a bolt of air around the size of an average sized dinner plate in the direction of the one they want to track. Due to the nature of Air Pressure if it makes contact with its intended target it will be knocked back 2m with an additional 5m being added for every 10 strength they have, it, of course, would do no damage allowing the person to believe that it was just a dud spell. Regardless of if it is a touch or a dinner plate-sized orb that hits them an invisible mark in the shape of a lilac scythe would be left. This mark can only be seen with the right amount of sensory or higher.
This mark allows the wearer to track their target over a large distance without requiring a map spell that could possibly be seen to be used. With the use of ammo rules, additional marks can be created allowing for several targets to be tracked at once.
Name of the Ability Lorkor Hofiba Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 Rounds Active ¦ 2 Rounds Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Physical Reinforcement ¦ Sensory (Illusion) Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 10m ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: -2 Sensory ¦ +2m/s speed (self) Description: Whispering the ability's name is enough to activate it. The moment this is done what appears to be a thick wind-filled lilac fog seems to fill the area making it almost if not impossible to see for a single round using the blinding rules, regardless of whether they are blinded or not their mana senses would be reacting strangely. They may not be able to feel a spell coming at times and times that they do feel mana it could be coming from the wrong direction, this includes when they use their own spells. The sensory required to see through the illusion is 10 +2 for every 15 control that the wearer has (if the wearer has the advanced perk puppet master this is reduced to +2 for every 10 control) this can be reduced lower if another sensory mage uses a map spell as shown inside the sensory magic spec. The requirement to see-through the spell will decrease by 2 every round (this will change to every second round if the wearer has the advanced perk shattered psyche). As the illusion is still in its infancy there is a lot of unknown growth it can do. The wearer will find that while they are inside the fog that their speed has slightly increased as they feel a stronger air current around their feet.
Name of the Ability Malakta Lilaste Type & Uses: -- ¦ -- ¦ -- Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: -- ¦ -- Range & Speed: Self ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: Description: 1/2 Junior rank strength buff This ability passively grants 1/2 Junior rank strength to physical attacks around their hands a faint wind can be felt with the right amount of sensory the aura of the wind can be seen to be lilac in colour. Due to the nature of air pressure, any physical hit the wearer lands causes a knockback equal to 2m with an additional 5m being added for every 10 strength the wearer has. Due to this being a passive ability it will grow with the necklace and so its word count will be added to what the word count required to advance the item itself.
Rank & Element: Junior ¦ Shadow Class & Type: Magic ¦ Accessory (Hair bow) Magic Specializations: Transformation Appearance & Lore: A periwinkle silk and lace ribbon fashioned into a double hair bow around three inches wide and one and a half inches in height with a double tail that matches the width of the bow. Although, due to the nature of the specialization it has it may change colour depending on what the wearer wants. near the centre of the bow, there is a small gold and moonstone charm around half the size of a pinky nail.
If a person was to look at the owner of this particular bow they would see nothing but a cute, naive and innocent young noblewoman, what they don't know is that the owner is actually a stone-cold manipulator and killer who has likely in the initial second of meeting a person decided how they would be of best use to her, several ways to kill them and how to dispose of their body. The bow was given to Saeka by her elder brother Xue on her fifteenth birthday, it is like its owner and holds a deadly secret that only Saeka and Xue know. Abilities: While worn the owner of Hidden Secrets has access to the advanced perk Mystic's touch
Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 rounds active ¦ 2 rounds cooldown Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Transformation (Temperature Changing) Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 10m (AoE) ¦ 10m/s Stats Affected: -- Description: Pulling the golden moonstone charm before gripping and pulling the hairbow out of her hair will cause the bow itself to be shrouded in a wispy shadow for a moment before it begins to extend, when it fades what lays in its wake is an ornate 8" double-sided serrated, yet lightweight dagger which is perfectly balanced for the user. Around the blade itself are wisps of shadow but after a brief few seconds it seems to transform leaving lilac wisps of wind. The blade is classed as a physical weapon and will do Junior rank damage as such. It has the added benefit of warming or cooling the area with the light breeze although it will smell of lilac.
Rank & Element: Intermediate ¦ Gemstone Class & Type: Magic ¦ Trinket (Charm) Magic Specializations: Golem Creation Appearance: This is a delicate silver charm slightly bigger than a thumbnail with an obsidian inlay to make it seem like a spider's web.
History: To get into the festive spirit the shopkeeper had these charms made as a sweet treat with a trick hidden inside. She has people sign a liability waiver and hopes no one they know has arachnophobia.
Name of the Ability: Black Widow Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 4 Rounds ¦ 3 Cooldown Rank & Specialization: Intermediate ¦ Golem Creation Mana Cost: 15 ¦ 8 Range & Speed: 40m ¦ 20 m/s Stats Affected: N/A Description:
The owner of the charm runs their thumb over the webbed charm whispering the words "silent death" to activate this ability. Behind them will stand a six-meter-tall spider made of obsidian and onyx with eight eyes made with citrine. Those who get somewhat close will believe that it has hairs on parts of its body but only when getting closer will they notice that it is very fine shards of smoked quartz. This spider is a predator and has several ways of attacking, these being its legs, pedipalp, fangs or biting, strangely enough, these golems even have a unique quirk that they can create a web of a random coloured gemstone (once chosen this will not change). It doesn't matter how many times or different ways it hits a single target in a round it will only deal intermediate damage. The maximum number of these golems that can be created at a time is four with the use of the ammo rules. This golem is large enough that it can be used as a mode of transportation which can carry up to two passengers per golem but its speed will drop to 10m/s while doing so. Due to the animal, the golem is fashioned after it can climb up walls and scurry over ceilings even while being used as a mode of transportation. This golem can be upgraded if a person has the correct element.
[attr="class","raescroll"] After the first dance ended, Jevi offered his company to Saya for the rest of the day. He had no other plans, and so far the interactions with her had been lovely from the dance to the conversation. This was the kind of interaction he was more used to when it came to girls. Just an easy-going and fun conversation without any awkwardness. Naturally he understood why things were different with Hinota, but it was still refreshing to experience something more light hearted after so many stressful interactions as of late. Saya gently moved some of her bangs back towards her ear before she moved her hand around his arm and told him she did not mind the idea of spending the day together, nor did she mind what they were going to do at the festival. “Great, it’s a deal then.” Jevi gave her a gentle smile, not at all minding the fact that she was holding onto his arm. Back in the Forsaken Region he had many interactions just like this with Cecilia, so it did not make him feel nervous or anything of the sort. [break][break] As they moved away from the dancefloor for the moment, Jevi spotted Aura and waved to the blonde who he had gotten to know bit by bit over different interactions. The girl was not all that comfortable around him, or that’s what Jevi felt like at least. That’s why he did not want to force any interaction on her, but when she approached them he greeted her with a smile and introduced her to Saya as one of his fellow magic knights. Aura greeted him back politely, and while there was no smile on her face she did seem to be far more casual and relaxed than what he was used to from her. She even mentioned not taking him for the dancing type, and wondered if she had been interrupting something. Saya commented that Aura was not interrupting anything, as she was just getting to know him after a dance and introduced herself to Aura. “Just Jevi is fine, really. I noticed Saya was all by herself, and since I was too I invited her for a dance. I might not be the greatest dancer, but I’m light on my feet and a pretty quick learner.” He chuckled softly, just before his eyes fell on the item that Aura had brought with her. From the looks of it, it was a sword but tied up in ceremonial fashion as to keep the blade from being directly exposed. “I see you picked up the sword as well? Must be a pretty unique blade if you keep it wrapped up so nicely.” It was quite obvious where his interests were, and since Aura knew him a little bit she most certainly understood why the sword caught his attention. [break][break] However, when it came to catching anyone’s attention Jirou certainly took the cake. There was no mistaking the man when he walked in looking more like gems than a person from the elaborately decorated clothing to the fan and jewelry that adorned him. Even a peacock with all its feathers out for the world to see did not show off as much as Jirou did in this current moment. The fact that he was one of Hinota’s older brothers was enough to make Jevi slightly nervous about being near him. He did not know how much he knew about him and Hinota’s time together. It could be nothing, it could be everything, or it could be anything in between. If he could avoid interacting with the man for the time being it would probably be best, but then again it was not like a relationship with Hinota was in the cards considering her betrothal to Valo, so even if he messed up around Jirou it would not mean all too much. Though, he had been learning more and more as to not make a fool of himself like he had almost done at the Flower Fete. Which reminded him of Aura’s response to the man back then, and how he had attempted to redirect his attention away from her before the mana beasts broke free and did the trick for him. [break][break] While those thoughts raced through his mind, he was quickly brought back to reality by Saya’s sneeze. Seeing her pat her nose made him reach for the clean handkerchief inside of his pocket. He’d extend it to her with his free hand, letting Saya keep a hold of his other arm. “Bless you. Here, use this instead. You can keep it if you wish.” The handkerchief was nothing special, just a simple light blue one without a particular pattern or stitching. Jevi usually kept one or two on him for occasions such as these, especially when he went out to events such as the Star Festival. They always ended up being useful, as was showcased again just now. From Saya’s body language, he could tell she seemed to be turning away from Jirou’s general direction, almost as if she was hiding from him. Perhaps these two had some kind of past between them? Either way, Jevi was not going to go out of his way to get Jirou’s attention. Aura had shown in the past to be uncomfortable around the man, and Saya did not seem to care much either. “Did you want to stay here at the ballroom, Aura? You’re welcome to come enjoy the rest of the festival with us if you wish. I’m sure Saya won’t mind either, would you?” If Saya did mind, then Jevi would have to excuse himself to Aura for being presumptuous, but his offer had been made to Saya first and he’d naturally honor that commitment.

Aura blinked a few times at Jevi's comment, her eyes moving to the relic at her side. "It belonged to my mother. I'm still shocked I found it." She placed a hand on the tip of the hilt, a soft smile playing across her lips before she returned her attention to Jevi. "It's wrapped like this because it's how my mother taught me to treat a weapon while in more formal situations. If I were on official business it would not be wrapped." She was just being honest, it wasn't like she didn't have a reason not to be. She never hid that she was an orphan, it wasn't like it was that important in the first place.
If anything she felt the fact the blade was owned by her mother could be shocking, especially when they were just commoners. Outside of herself it was her mother's most prized possession. The woman didn't even realize that another had entered in such a grandiose way, or at least he felt it was. Her back was turned, the girl using her passive sensory magic to just keep track of what was around her. She could tell people were parting or giving someone distance, but she wasn't really paying attention to why. Her eyes flicked over to the woman that introduced herself as Saya. She raised an eyebrow, though stayed calm before speaking again. "I have healing magic, if you need it I can free you from an illness if there is one." She looked back towards Jevi as he spoke again, blinking a few times. At the very least she could stick closer to someone she at least somewhat knew. Even if his niceness made her wary she couldn't say that she hated the idea of at least sticking around him.
Though she couldn't help the look of bored annoyance that crossed her features only a moment later. None had even made her interested at all in watching the dances though. "Honestly this place has been.. Uninspiring. I had come here hoping that there could be some inspiring performances, but I now see that the nobles keep to the most basic forms of dance." A hint of annoyance at the simplicity was there, she wanted something inspiring to watch, not just the most basic of dances. "Guess they are too focused on not looking bad for their houses to decide to come up with anything new. What a shame."
Aura was if nothing else a performer. Uninspired performances was the last thing she enjoyed witnessing but there she was, watching a bunch of nobles fail to impress her. Was she too hard to impress? Probably but it wasn't like she was easily impressed by music or dance if it were so uninspired. Maybe she'd find better inspiration elsewhere, though she doubted it.

Rank & Element: Junior Class & Type: Accessory Magic Specializations: N/A Appearance & Lore: The Magic Knight Mantle is an Item in which Magic Knights wear to show the Squad that are in. Each Squad has a different color Mantle along with their own squad logo as well. When these items were built they were made out of a special material that allows them to be unbreakable from any sort of attack, but does not block the wearer from any attacks. Magic Knights of the Clover Kingdom has worn these Mantles for hundreds of years. Abilities:
An elegant looking two handed sword made of silver, gold and what appears to be imbedded with lapras at the hilt and blade. It is easy to say that this blade was made with a keen eye for detail and was made as a labour of love. When held by its owner though it will glow a pale blue in certain parts of the hilt and blade while having an aura that seems to emanate from the blade itself.
Lore:
In noble and common families alike family heirlooms are often created at the beginning of the family tree and handed down from one generation to the next. This sword is no different, it does have a crest of a noble house on it however no historical books show it matching to any house common or otherwise making this blade a truly forgotten and enigmatic heirloom.
Abilities:
The accepted owner of the Forsaken Heirloom is granted the Full Blitz perk while wielding the longsword.
Name of the Ability Ancestral Spirits Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 (uses) ¦ 2 (overheating) Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Attack Creation Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 25m ¦ 10 m/s Stats Affected: +2 Power Description: The sword itself seems to almost become an extension of its wielder which is clear the moment it is held and the calming pale blue aura can be seen emanating from it. The user need only speak the words "Ancestors guide me" then use the sword as it was intended to activate this ability. When slashing or stabbing it will release a small arc of pale blue mana of two meters wide towards its designated target, with the use of ammo rules several more of these pale blue attack arcs can be created per round.
Name of the Ability Generational Gifts Type & Uses: Flow ¦ 3 (uses) ¦ 2 (overheating) Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Attack Creation ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: 8 ¦ 4 Range & Speed: 25m ¦ 10 m/s Stats Affected: Junior Strength Buff Description: This sword seemingly acts a little strange as if drawing the strength of those who wielded it before the current owner. To activate this ability they must draw their own blood on the side of the blade that correlates to their prominent hand and then run it down the blade itself. Once active they need only use the blade as intended, when slashing it will release three tight lines 2m long by one inch thick then thrusting forward it will send it in the general direction of the enemy. With the use of the ammo rules, additional tri-slashes can be created. As stated above the sword acts strangely, the owner will find if they are disarmed while this ability is active and the sword is still within 10m of them their strength would have miraculously increased as if those who held the sword before them are attempting to aid them.
Name of the Ability: Pride of the Ancestors Type & Uses: Passive Rank & Specialization: Junior ¦ Physical Reinforcement Mana Cost: -- ¦ -- Range & Speed: Self ¦ -- Stats Affected: +5 m/s Description: The wielder will find themselves shimmering with a very soft pale blue white light that is almost completely translucent, this will grant the wearer a passive +2 m/s to speed however this ability does not become active until the ability is trained to intermediate. As this is a passive the abilities word count will be added to the item itself so it will grow at the same time, however, due to the full blitz perk they will still find themselves +5 m/s faster.
It had been several weeks since Akihiko returned from his last tour and to the surprise of his family he hadn't left to go on another one yet. He had his reasons, one of them being that the servant that his father had watch over him while away from home had created far more meet-and-greets than usual draining his social battery lower than usual. The second reason was that Sumire had asked him to do some embroidery for the Ravencrest order, it was no secret within the family that though he matched any of his siblings when it came to pattern recognition he flourished and seemed happiest when embroidering. Even his elder sister who honed her craft day in and day out stated in this area there was no one better. He always felt humbled by the praise of his family as it had been them who had nurtured the talents he now possessed.
The third and final reason he was still at home was that he had heard people speaking of the Star Festival, he had always been in the middle of a tour when this festival happened and he felt selfish for even contemplating having a day off so he could go and see the festivities, this was mainly because of the servant's words as when the young tailor was away from home the servant acted as his father's voice. He never wanted to be selfish, undisciplined or disrespectful so placed such childish notions away and did what was expected of him while on tour after all he was working. He hated this servant so much as a lot of the time he prevented him from having any kind of fun or downtime. It was concerts, meet and greets with fans, making his clothing, writing more music, practice for his music and dance, practice for concerts.
Then there were his usual lessons and also nobles who paid who knew how much so their child could spend one-on-one time with him at meals and other events, the latter still made him somewhat dirty to this day. He didn't even know if his family knew about those things and he didn't know even to this day how to bring it up as though nothing sinister ever happened it still made his skin crawl. The servant had attempted to set a new tour in motion a week earlier but he straight up refused to start it and when told that the venues and events were already sold out he told him to give people back their money as this hadn't been discussed with him. The servant looked less than pleased but the blonde-haired male refused to budge, it was either he who asked for a tour to be set up or his father informing him that he would be going.
If the latter were to happen then his father would never speak through a servant, he would communicate with Akihiko directly so he understood the reason for it being forced on him. To this day it had only happened three times since they had come to Clover, he was starting to become concerned that the servant was becoming greedy and so overstepping boundaries that had been put in place for him. It would be something he would have to talk to someone about but that was yet another subject he didn't know how to approach for a completely different reason than the first. Still, the servant did as he was ordered and cancelled the tour returning the money that had been gained. From what he had heard while on errands the idol was spending some quality time with the divine but when he heard of this scam wanted to make his fans whole and so returned the funds out of his own money.
It seemed to garner more support for that side of him but he couldn't help but roll his eyes at the stunt the servant pulled because it could have easily gone the other way. He knew by now his parents would have heard of it and so he would be questioned about it. That would have to wait however as he was looking forward to enjoying the festival, the issue was as his normal self he just didn't have the social bandwidth to deal with it so decided that his idol self would go which irritated him as it seemed recently he could never get away from it. It was like being back in the East all over again but this time instead of his father it was his would-be 'caretaker' attempting to exploit him. He left a note for his parents and moved to get into the more traditional carriage those of the East used.
While travelling to the festival he changed from his simple pale greens and white clothing to a more simplistic yet elegant pale almost eggshell flowing hanfu with white butterflies embroidered onto it. His sash was a deep emerald green as was the single charm that dangled from it. In his left ear, he wore an earring that was of imperial jade and what appeared to be silver while he tied his hair up with a ribbon that matched his hanfu. Twisting the blue jade ring as he usually did before placing it onto his right hand allowed him to change his appearance to be more androgynous than usual, it also changed his blonde hair to being black and his piercing emerald eyes to be more of an alluring sapphire. Once his carriage came to a stop he would allow for the door to slide open and he would make his exit. "Where are we?" he would ask the servant this after all was completely new to him.
"This is the Royal Capital my lord" the man answered "No, I know that but where exactly have you brought me?" he would ask his tone showing confusion as he looked around. "Oh, well we believed that the ball may have interested you first and so we brought you. You did tell us to surprise you." he said wondering if he had done something wrong "I... I see, thank you for your consideration." he said with a smile bowing to the man the servant returning it. "Please enjoy yourself, compensate anything you eat, or drink wish to take as souvenirs or activities you wish to take part in." he said his voice sounding content as he bowed once more and made his way to where the dance was talking place.
The music wasn't to his taste and seemed like many of the instruments needed to be tuned again but he drowned it out for the most part. He watched as many people danced or even had conversations, as he walked deeper into the crowd he couldn't help but hear a young woman comment how it had been uninspiring, how she had gone with the expectations of being inspired by performances but that nobles were just plain and boring. This caused him to stop for a moment and turn his attention to her "I am sorry to intrude on the conversation, but I don't believe your way of thinking is correct my lady." he said his voice still warm as he wore a smile "Nobles are neither trained monkeys nor performers so they aren't here for your entertainment or to help you gain inspiration..." he continued his tone always respectful as he spoke
"If this was the case then performers like myself or if I hazarded a guess yourself would be out of a job." he was polite the entire time he spoke but once he was finished he just continued into the hall, as his hanfu was so long it almost seemed as if he was floating across it though it was still clear his steps were graceful and no matter his movement he wouldn't fall.

Ozma released a silent sigh as he emerged from the carriage in the royal capital to enjoy the festivities, while he enjoyed time to himself he knew that as someone with royal blood in his veins he needed to mingle every now and then or he ran the risk of being disconnected with others and that wouldnt help him at all, from a quick glance he spotted his brother dressed in gaudy colors and ornate jewlery which honestly looked garish in the older twins eyes,'its one thing to show off wealth but at this point I think even a peacock would retch at my brothers sense of style' he thought to himself, the elder of the twins was garbed in what a fusion of eastern and western styles,he wore traditional combaat style boots along with black pants while his upper body was clad in a more form fitting version of a hanfu that was a lovely shade of red that had accents of gold and black with what seemed to be bracers on his arms near his wrists and a sash that was a mixture of gold and black as well.
The prince was clearly showing off his wealth but he wasnt being as garish and outlandish as his twin as he started to move thru the crowds, as he did he accidently ended up lightly bumping into Aura and as he made sure he didnt fall he looked to her before he bowed in apology and signed to her “my apologies I should have looked where I was going” he signed though he wasnt sure if she would even understand it was still better to attempt to communicate then to not and look like a jerk to the others, in truth he could hardly care about the others around but he had to keep up appearances and he would be damned if he was going to act like his brother since while he could keep up an act it was not perfect and Ozma was one to make sure he kept his feelings and secrets to himself.

As he walked through the dancehall His stride and form were of elegence and serenity, all rolled into the immaculate package that was Jirou. He smiled as he saw his targets and made his way there.
Hed did not notice his brother, his eyes were set on the prey he wanted, and he wouldn’t lose them this time. He glided across the dancefloor weaving his way through the dancing people with the ease of a trained warrior on the battlefield. He was a prince and so held himself to the heighest standards of skill in all things. To be bested by anything but his abslute equal is nothing but insulting.
Hed a smirk as he made his way toward Aura and her little friends. How sweet that they like her so much that they would be willing to.interqct with her. But sadly, he knew well how that ended. Such a waste, to have her beauty and innocence wasted on boys instead of a prince as she deserves. Or at least... has shown herself to deserve. As he approached people naturally gasped and showed awe at his outfit. But this was just one of several outfits he had planned. As he walked toward them his smile was normal and gentle.
"Greetings~ I must say I am impressed with your outfits tonight. They make a much better showing then you did at the flower fete" hed smile softly at them all.
