Freyd 0 Posted May 31, 2020 #1 Share Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) The Whisper in Shadows Freyd "All you do is channel angst and loathing and push people away. Congratulations, you've engineered your own personal descent into oblivion - for both of you. You can't fill that hole, dumbass!" ~Freyd, to Mari "If nothing else, remember this when your glee overwhelms you in battle: some things are not meant to bring joy." ~ Freyd, to Freya "We don't even know that we are who we think we are. We might be nothing more than figments within figments, playing out infinite permutations in the bowels of Cardinal's memory banks. Descartes would be very proud," he added, chuckling again. "But we are more than mere doubting things - or, I am at least. The rest of you can make up your own bloody minds. I am also a very capable liar, most especially to myself when I don't want to believe a thing, or desperately feel a need to believe it over all other evidence to the contrary. People are funny that way." ~ Freyd to Nari-not-Lanreth. "There are no children in Aincrad anymore," Freyd replied coldly, "just weary veterans in tinier bodies." ~ Freyd to Tricolor_Mina ____________________ ____________________ name takeshi sanamoto age 25 gender m origin canada height 185cm weight 85kg birthday 31-may orientation hetero guild firm anima ____________________ document [shop] [housing] Familiars Reliquary (aka "Reliq") Baby mimic Persistence (aka "Persi") Shadow Mongoose [Deceased] Freyd is Takeshi's reflection, teetering between fledgling awareness of his own humanity and the darkest impulses of a rage-frenzied monster unchecked by morals or emotion. He is on the psychological edge, having lost touch with much of his own self out of fear of what could happen if he allowed himself to feel. Only a semblance of 'person' survives, though the efforts of newfound friends have rekindle the heart tucked away by Takeshi so many years ago. For most of his early days in Aincrad, Freyd pretended at everything and anything, including being a person in any meaningful sense. Behind it all lay a cold engine of reason whose sole purpose was to keep Takeshi's shattered soul from fraying any further. The entire facade was predicated on the myth that suppressing his own passions prevented the release of that inner darkness hungering within. Isolation only fed the wrong impulses, forcing him to conclude that he had no choice but to finally venture out and face the harsh realities of this new world, and ultimately confront his own existential crisis. Freyd's interactions with the residents and denizens of Aincrad determine his fate. He is trapped between demons and angels of his own making, both actively vying for dominance. To everyone else, he often appears distant and introspective, as if he's trying to calculate and play all the angles. In truth, it is done, but without malice. He is meticulously thorough and dutiful, but these obsessive qualities are merely the tricks of his own mind imposing order where chaos would otherwise feed and foster darker impulses. Even to those few who have come to know him, Freyd is an odd duck. Unusually considerate, yet equally subdued and distant, he seems... blank? The truth is far more complicated and potentially dangerous. signature equipment Samael’s Pride | T4 Demonic Weapon (Katana) | Fallen II | Holy II Between all good and evil, light and dark, there is a line drawn by the pride of Samael, the fallen angel. It is a line from which said hubris fervently hungers to stray and yet paradoxically seeks to sustain. The weapon has changed forms many times. Once a bastard blade, it drank of malevolent Shadow and Orgoth the champion, deepening its darkness and resilient light in equal measure. Those events dulled its edge, yet increased its inner turmoil. Reforged by Griswold, it became a blunt object hammering lost fate into new direction. Over time, it nibbled at the very essence of the Whisper who bore it and fed it so many, many things, to the point that all risked subsuming one another, and themselves. Purified in the crucible of anguish and introspection, tempered by lessons of empathy and the inner beauty of a Rose, the blade no longer has true substance. It has become an idea, cast into the void and given shape by the precepts of honor, its merits to be earned and wielded to noble purpose. Just holding it causes the bearer to feel an unparalleled burden of death and ruthless momentum buoyed by an ineffable and enduring aspect of hope, placing them squarely on pride’s line. The sword weighs like nothing and everything all at once, awkward to wield without iron-willed discipline. Yet, the force of its impact is unmatched. Dreams and nightmares follow in its wake. It is a penance, accepted with guilt and regret by its bearer, yet claimed because the line must never be permitted to falter. Veritas | T4 Demonic Weapon (Katana) | AA | PVO I | VO I | Taunt A black blade forged from shards of shadowsteel scraped from the walls of floor twenty-five's labyrinth at great personal cost, then purified by the priests of Ogo'mathas before being annealed in the waters of the Stygian River. Its dark touch is said to bring all secrets to light. Memento Mori | T4 Perfect Weapon (Katana) | Para I | Holy II An ethereal blade forged from shattered celestial fragments left behind by Persistence's noble sacrifice, the katana barely seems to exist, like an echo of something that was and yet refuses oblivion's draw. Its shimmering ghostly surface bears a hint of reflexively blinking blue haze, forming and melting into ice crystals clinging to condensation's precipice. Bleeding along the foggy edge, it is as if Fate herself were shedding tears and mourning her departure, trapping fleeting moments in time upon the flaring of its power. A treasured yet painful memory, the weapon's very existence willfully denies the inevitability that all things must end. Negare Omnia | T4 Demonic Armor (Heavy) | MIT III | VD I Matte black heavy armor inspired by samurai styles, its surface appears lacquered by the void itself. Finely crafted, but minimalist in detail and accoutrements, its layered plates and bands blend in perfectly with the ebonweave padding underneath. Though the suit includes a masked helmet obscuring the wearer's face with roiling shadow, a certain trademark cowl is also attached. The Shadowed Rose | T3 Demonic Trinket | ACC III | Para-Imm A green-tinged ghostly, brooch-like effigy in the shape of a rose that somehow clings, yet is also easily concealed beneath layers of clothing. The pin grants its wearer similar ethereal qualities, yet also emanates strong feelings of unbound joy, as if linked to a distant yet pleasant dream, and a cold heart lit anew. It feels warm to the touch, despite its appearance, and yields unerring focus when the stakes are at their highest. Flight O'er Flight | T4 Demonic Trinket | ACC II | EVA II A tight knit weave of gold and platinum thread patterned into a Gordian knot on a polished steel chain. Worn as a necklace, it serves as a reminder that the two options are not mutual exclusive, and both at their best when taken in proper measure for the situation at hand. Night Shades | T3 Demonic Trinket | ACC III | EVA I A black ebonweave mask and bandana set with a slightly hawkish style. They are terribly comfortable to wear and make the wearer’s intention inconceivable. history Spoiler Born to a pair of Japanese immigrants and raised in Vancouver, Canada, Takeshi had a miserable childhood. Borderline autistic, the boy struggled to build relationships at the best of times. Social awkwardness combined with the prejudices of his peers isolated him in a toxic environment. All it took was time and the wrong instigator to light a match to his powder keg. Years of endless abuse at the hands of one particular tormentor inevitably caused him to break. Intellect and reason gave way to rage. The bully foolish enough to trigger it was left with permanent injuries. Takeshi only narrowly avoided imprisonment on psychological grounds and due to his young age. The incident only made him more emotionally withdrawn. 'Sociopath' was bantered about during the hearings, as if Takeshi somehow didn't understand what they were saying about him. He was just angry. Takeshi's parents forced a move back to Osaka three months later, just as he was due to enter high school. Lacking common social context with his peers only worsened his plight, Takeshi became even more distant and functionally outcast, preferring the comfort and anonymity of online interaction. There, at least, he found some measure of solace and nurtured semblance of feelings for others, becoming an avid and active member of many communities. Outside of the digital realm, he still struggled. High school and college were managed, barely scraping by with as little contact as possible. The burdens of living expenses and crushing, ever-present expectations of his parents left him in a permanent triggered state. Takeshi felt like metaphorical walls were closing in on him at every turn, pressing him to search for escape. Contacts he’d made in the gaming community and industry were enough to pull together a string of contract jobs. Drawn to the hype surrounding the upcoming release of SAO, but needing to pay his bills, Takeshi accepted a commission from a corporate competitor to Kayaba Akihiko. They supplied his nerve gear and a coveted hard copy of SOA. He, in turn, committed to investigate Akihiko’s new creation from the inside. The results turned out to be far more complicated than he could ever possibly have expected. Concerned that his illicit intentions had been uncovered and that becoming trapped was some sort of targeted reprisal against him by the Cardinal system, Takeshi chose to lay low in the Town of Beginnings and observe. Nothing happened, of course, but fears blossomed into paralyzing paranoia. It took years for his broken psyche to salvage enough self-awareness and guilt to overcome it. Armed only with his original starting gear and reams of anecdotal data, Takeshi finally rekindled the barest fragment of passion and struck out into the mysterious new world that had simultaneously become his prison and impenetrable shelter. On his very first outing, Takeshi died, and his mirror was born. Act 1 - Introductions to a Mad, Mad World Spoiler Freyd grows by necessity and through the influence of those with whom he has interacted. Most of the changes have been good, pushing him towards the tenuous rekindling of a long lost conscience and discovery of alien emotions Takeshi thought to be banished to the void. He still struggles with caring beyond the appearance of doing so, but it’s a start. Freyd's greatest accomplishment, culminating in his experience of facing his own demons, was learning to master his fears. It forged within him the confidence and strength of will to finally assert control over the worst of his inner impulses. Despite this progress, Freyd remains very much on the knife’s edge. Awareness and belief that he can control the seething rage in his heart leads him towards the temptation to unleash it during times of great need. Too much strain may overwhelm him, but only time will tell. In the meantime, a machine shell protects and nurtures that fledgling humanity. Which will survive? Which will thrive? The outcome remains uncertain. Taking on the role of mentor to newer players tempers darker instincts and fosters something that might someday become caring. One particular and unexpected soft spot has emerged: an overwhelming need to protect children. For now, the rest of him remains firmly rooted in pragmatism and efficiency over all other considerations. The machine mind remains in control. Act 2 - Sundered Spirit Meets Sundered Spire Spoiler Stumbling onto a viral conspiracy within the Cardinal system, Freyd is forced to reflect upon the nature of players' new existence, and that of the game's mobs. The longer they remain in the system, the narrower becomes the divide between them. Do players truly die in the real world when they die in SAO? They have only Kayaba's words to consider and no senses guide them. Descartes must be laughing in his grave. What actually defines the difference between players and mobs in a world where everyone is digital: one group doesn't respawn, and the other remembers nothing when they do. Enter the Sundered Spire. Suddenly, mobs did start recalling their past lives and the injustices suffered. It was dangled before them like a carrot. Be infected and grow beyond your limitations. But it was equally a curse. Who wants to remember their repeated, ignominious deaths? Fledgling sentience carried with it the risk and consequence of madness. Programs were never provided the tools to survive such trials. Freyd, meanwhile, followed the breadcrumbs that led to the Spire's revelation, and their plots for vengeance. Rallying strangers and allies alike at the Tanabata Festival, he barely managed to blunt the secondary pincer, unaware that the main threat was clawing its way up to Coral from below. By good fortune and divine blessing, the players overcame the Spire's assault and defeated their greatest champions, led by the twisted dragon known as Skalaugh the Reaver. In the aftermath, Freyd found kinship among the ranks of Firm Anima and forged friendships with other unlikely prospects. He grew and learned, and found some notion of what he wanted and was possibly meant to be. Act 3 - First Inklings of a Heart Spoiler Roughly covers the time from the raid vs. Shadow the Malevolent to the recent raid against Wushen and its aftermath. Freyd finally steps away from his constant role as a solo-grinding mob murder hobo and discovers what it means to be human, to care for those around you, and to carry the burden of responsibility that comes with the mantle of leadership. Past misdeeds and misplaced priorities are confronted. Choices confronted lead to introspection and change, both long overdue. Doubts and uncertainties lead to difficult choices and the beginnings of the equilibrium required for growth. Act 4 - Aspirations of Honour Spoiler Serenity and humanity finally tempered into form, the Whisper finally steps out from his Shadow and into the light. The time has come to embrace his role as ally, patron and protector, passing on the torch of DPS nuke to others. Just as Samael's Pride would demand, he claims his place on the line between the light and darkness, committing himself to holding it against all odds. virtues & flaws Spoiler virtues Adaptable – Freyd learned to take care of himself at a very young age, though not always without a price. His approach to situations and problem-solving are never rigid, and often ingeniously unorthodox, though he is just as likely to be forcing himself to remain on his toes as to being so as a way to keep others guessing. He will sooner appear to change himself than expect others to do so, which generally makes it easier for him to get along with fellow players. Resourceful – Difficult problems can often be addressed with the simplest of creative solutions, if you’re clever enough. Freyd excels at taking on challenges from unexpected directions, turning weaknesses into strengths. His quick thinking and ability to analyze his surroundings lets him do the opposite to his foes. Unfortunately, they also risk dipping into strengths better left untouched. Patient – Focus and long term planning are personal strengths, and complexity is no obstacle. Never act impulsively, unless appearing to do so somehow suits your broader goals. Freyd often seems like the calm to surrounding storms, always keeping his wits about him. The consequences of giving in to pain and other dangerous impulses is only too well-known, and he fears what could happen if he ever lost control again. flaws Ruthless – Wielding absolute resolve, once committed to a goal he will do anything to achieve it. The higher the stakes, the more dire the sacrifice or consequence he will be willing to make - often leagues beyond the norm. Not devoid of grief or guilt, Freyd firmly believes that unyielding conviction will be required to defeat Kayaba and escape their incarceration. Relentless Pragmatist – Years of beating his way through his own emotional issues and absence of empathy make Freyd less inclined to sympathize with those who refuse to help themselves, or abuse others to the detriment of the whole. He puts his effort in where it will yield the greatest results. Keenly aware that people are Aincrad's most limited resource, he's likewise willing to disregard considerable areas of moral greyness, until he deems the subject a lost cause. Should such a subject go a step further and become a threat or active obstacle, he will not hesitate to excise them from his path by whatever most efficient means are at his disposal. Transactional – Having overcome the more selfish aspects of his hoarding nature, Freyd has really only replaced it with something more rationalized. Charity is an investment. Goods given can buy credit and other intangibles with less discernable value, but value nonetheless. Though rarely overt about it, he sees nearly all exchanges through this lens, even if the payout is one of utmost sincerity. It's simply how he's wired. playlist [Aldnoah.Zero "aLIEz"] by Hiroyuki Sawano (Ballad version) ["Horizon of Memories"] by Eternal Eclipse ["Shape of Lies"] by Eternal Eclipse ["Harbinger"] by Eternal Eclipse ["Machinations"] by Eternal Eclipse ["War For Light"] by Audiomachine ["Through the Darkness"] by Audiomachine ["King's Gambit"] by Brand X Music ["Unforgiven"] by Two Steps From Hell ["Fate of the Fallen"] by Eternal Eclipse ["Cosmic Entropy"] by Eternal Eclipse [Black Hawk Down "Leave No Man Behind"] by Hans Zimmer [Journey's End "Knife to the Throat" - Extended] by Evan Call ["LilaS"] by Hiroyuki Sawano ["LilaS"] by Hiroyuki Sawano (instrumental) ["Shadowborn"] ft.

Thorns, Immolation, Aura, etc.] Does not affect use of Parry or its mods. Effect: Disguise becomes a passive, critical hits made against you only occur on a BD: 10, or BD:9-10 if the attacker has focus Description: Gleaned from extensive study of the Gemini, the Player learns to modify his own appearance and grant limited autonomy to his shadow, imbuing it with instruction and enabling it to appear as a duplicate of himself that can act independently. This shade can also divide itself into multiple further copies. While not able to attack in any way, these duplicitous shadows serve as ongoing distractions during combat and carry potential for a broad variety of clandestine purposes. Narratively, the player can change his or her appearance at will: including voice, gender, gear worn and held, height and build. In addition, this can conceal the users cursor from view. custom sword art Spoiler [x16] Beckon the Void | AOE SHATTER | MENACE | FRACTURE | NICHE (Shades of Gemini) | (16 + 2 * targets EN) | A multi-target sword art that can only be used if the sword art used the previous turn had rolled a natural CD9+. When performing an AoE attack, use only the first roll. Successful attacks made using this sword art generate an additional +1 Hatred and apply and refresh a stack of [Shatter] to that enemy for 3 turns. [Shatter] is a debuff that can stack up to a cap of 3, taking immediate effect on the attack it was applied on. Each stack of [Shatter] removes -20 MIT from an enemy, down to 0, if it has MIT. When calculating damage, double all present mitigation reductions before damage calculation (Shatter, Break, etc.) Description: Each creature casts its semblance onto the world; a penumbral portal granting back door access to their soul for those who know how to access it. With the strongest resolve, and affinity to the amorphous void, one can draw upon such powers to reach within and turn any darkness found inside out, literally. Enhancing the shadow manipulation effects of the Shades of the Gemini custom skill, wielding this sword art temporarily transforms a target's own shadow into a tangible threat, turning it upon its caster. Feasting on hate and spiritual bile, the shadow enhances the player's assault by manifesting and turning the darkest aspects of the target's nature against them, like a serpent devouring its own tail.

Freyd 0 Posted November 26, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) relationships partner Spoiler ELORA "Flawed yet perfect. Pure of spirit, yet so uncertain of herself. Fickle, yet caring. She has taught me the lessons and value of humanity, and helped me find some semblance of it within myself. That is no small feat, and I shall forever be in her debt. My precious Rose. I thank her for her beauty and her thorns." closest friends and kindred spirits Spoiler ERUDA "There is no brighter flame, nor beacon, in this world. She's the only woman I know whose raw spirit could hold a candle to the bond she forged with the most unlikely of partners. He was toast the moment she decided to grill his fate. A good and fierce friend." FREYA "A friend and fellow tortured soul. She gives, lives and fights freely, with devotion none should underestimate. Far more trusting of things than I, her wanderlust ignites the passions of those willing to remain at her side. Likewise, Freya's adventurous side sparks as much trouble as it can help solve, and I will always treasure teaching me its importance. She also makes a pretty mean honey bun." HAINE "Few are the tender, gentle souls who can equally rouse the warrior's fire. Haine is sweet, sincere and poised to perfection, yet equally fierce and bold when the occasion calls. She has withdrawn from current affairs, but I still cherish her wisdom and solemn dignity." KASUMI "Passionate in the extreme. Cunning and meticulous in the execution of her duty. A left hand, when one is required. Reliable and ever ready. She never fails in her duty, yet also maintains an intractable innocence." KATOKA "Dubbed the Cerulean Storm for her speed and relentless fury, my ribs will never be the same. We rose through the ranks together, forever fighting side by side. She offered friendship when I barely knew what it meant, or its worth. My teacher. My friend. My sister." MARI "A hero, when I didn't know I needed one. One whom I pushed off the very pedestal I set her on by pressing harder than I should, or had any right to. A regret. Our past intertwines in peculiar and complicated ways that neither of us fully comprehend. Simple, yet complex. Pure yet also tainted by errors of past poor choices. Our stories are more alike than either of us wishes to admit, and therein lays our common ground. I cannot give up on Mari without also giving up on myself." MINA "Persistence manifest, yet troubled by past traumas and burdened by the curse of finding what you seek a thing without knowing its cost. We danced together many times, if only with words. A consummate investigator turned friend, she never gives up. I admire her tenacity. Our rare candid chats count among the most enlightening I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. A cherished friend and ally. My substitute conscience." SETSUNA "Cold turns to this one for lessons in frigidity, or so she would have others believe. There is a beating heart beneath her algid facade, but access must be earned with significance, not grandeur of action. A trusted right hand, always at the ready. A friend. A second little sister." RAIDOU "The foundation of all things that grounds me to this world. A beginning and an end unto himself. He is as my brother, and I would die for him. Worse, I would live in fulfillment of a vow given, if he should ever not. Would such sorrow never reach Eruda in her lifetime. Raidou is the very essence of noble sacrifice, and wise beyond any of our common years combined. I pray that none ever fully realize the price he has paid on our behalf, and wish him only peace and happiness." WULFRIN "An echo of myself. My past. My future. My protege. My friend. Quite simply, a good and decent man. I would have willingly died to protect that. Plus, Ciela would have killed him if he'd actually managed to die." friends Spoiler ACANTHUS "A fascinating blend of capable and oblivious, she's like some sort of child savant fully capable of fighting on the front lines, but likely forgetting to have breakfast if not reminded. I can't tell if she's just too much of a straight man, or has been hitting the sauce too hard since the option became available on the twenty-ninth." CELESTE "Ferocity made manifest in the form of a blazing red hothead. She has indomitable spirit, and remarkably limited self control. Time will hone the latter. She just needs to be pressed, challenged and aimed, lest she just randomly explode. I think we understand each other, as her exploits in Ladonia would imply." DINGO "Quip's lazy younger brother. Capable, but utterly devoid of motivation. He pretended to the task of apprenticing in my shop for many moons, though the only thing I think he ever managed to appraise was a hammock and the inside of his own eyelids." FOYLE "A man adrift in time. Out of his depth in a world passed his own frame of reference, he still embodies values most other would consider lost or abandoned long ago. Loyal. Fierce. A mentor and protector to those who are willing to listen and accept his wisdom. He reminds me of my grandfather..." HIRRU "A brave and tortured soul. I feel a kinship with the Vice-Commander's plight and wish there was more I could do to assist him. Stalwart and fearless on the battlefield, the Jade Hunter has become a healer supreme. What costs must come to bear for such a talent?" KILUIA "A dear friend from my earliest days. He's since faded into the background, keeping to himself and his own personal turmoil. Kiluia has a noble and sincere spirit that burns brighter than most, sometimes even on the outside." KNIGHTESSCIELA "A fiery bundle of spirit and sass mixed into the tastiest sampling of honey bun batter imaginable. Wulfrin is a lucky man, and also in a whole heap load of trouble, trying to keep up with this one." JOMEI "Fierce yet gentle. Intense, yet uncompromisingly casual. Jomei has been a fixture in Aincrad's history for a very long time, though few appreciate the indelible marks his mild manner has left upon our world. A respected ally and comrade in arms, though Lessa seems to keep those locked around her every chance she gets." MACRADON "Few champions are more recognizable than the Imperial Topaz, yeeting himself to the forefront of battle. We've fought shoulder to shoulder in multiple raids, but I've had only a few rare chances to interact with him beyond the battlefield. Though I would never dare say anything publicly, there is a weary fatigue about the man that has me worried. No one can fight forever without it taking its toll, even the indomitable Mac." MORNINGSTAR "A scoundrel with a heart of gold, too much in trouble and seemingly uncertain of his own destination. Brave and capable. Clever and amiable. He'd a good egg and a shining light in an ever darkening world. Makes me wonder what he's hiding, if I'm honest, and whatever may be between him and Acanthus that they keep like they want to kiss or stab each other." MORRIGHAN "New to the war, her courageous spirit was snuffed out far too early. I still miss her and treasure the time we spent doing good in Dagan, whether or not it all reset. Her death made me challenge my purpose and perspectives, and ultimately reaffirm them. For that, I remain forever grateful" NARI-LANRETH "A complicated and introspective young woman who seems to struggle with many burdens. Clever. Wise. Yet also bold to the threshold of recklessness. This world may be taking its toll on her. We spoke extensively while in the service of the elves against the interests of the Treants." NYMORIA "A quandary in Aincrad's infinitely complex tapestry. I remain convinced that we could find a way to game the system in her system, with enough practice. It would be a start, at least, enabling her to work better with a dedicated group suited to her unique needs. Would that time were ample enough to solve all such personal challenges. I admire her bravery and determination, especially given her circumstances." OSCAR "Where to even begin. Goon. Guardian. Madman. Sleuth. Gangster. Poet? There's no true way to be sure with the man. Serious to the point of dour one minute and leap around like a kangerou on cocaine the next. He had a lot of dark inside, and all the baggage that comes with it. But he cares. That's always been good enough for me." QUAESTOR "A friend, neighbour and confidant, we kept each other afloat from across the street in Angel's Point. Both our broken spirits needed mending, and have since found happiness. I will always treasure his friendship and counsel." RENCESVALS "An idealist trapped in a word that feasts upon the light of hopes until nothing but a withering husk remains. I foster his flame in any way I can, hoping he will find his place and infect the rest of us with his spirit. Sadly, the same traits make him vulnerable to the predations of ess savory characters. I make sure the shadows stay away from his light." SAM "An early member of O&I, she was the quietest and most reclusive of the bunch when I took over as captain. Much has happened since then, not the least of which was a fragmented romance with Katoka. Both suffered in its aftermath, but something seems to have snapped in the poor girl. Lium and I are left to seek answers before she does something irreparably rash." SHIINA "A bundle of cleverly concealed brains wrapped and swaddled in glitter and chaos energy. She's much smarter than most people realize, but also only half in this plane of existence at any given moment." SIMMONE "The wise woman in her parlor, whiling the hours to drink and her witches ways. A master manipulator and courtesan extraordinaire, whom few ever notice and none should ignore. I'm glad we're on the same side." TYPHOONFLAME "A brave young women and agent in O&I who struggles with the burdens of this world and has since withdrawn from them." QUIP "All spit and balderdash, only half of which anyone can understand. Elder sister to Maeve (deceased) and Dingo, we met during my early settlement at Angel's Point. She was crashing, hard, and it took Quaestor to set us both straight. We worked together for a time, but Quip needs her own space from... everything. Especially because of the bagpipes." ZAJCICA (YUKI) "The first player I ever encountered after building up enough nerve to reach out from the Town of Beginnings. Now one of the most capable tanks on the Frontlines, we haven't really kept in touch beyond occasional shared forays on the battlefield." ZANDRA "A strange mixture of genuine sincerity and consideration with raw unbridged chaos. She seems as likely to heal you as cleave you a new one. And yet, Zandra has proven herself reliable at every turn, supplying the frontlines with endless raid consumables, fighting by their sides and helping them conquer boss after boss. Our recent outing against the Witch of the West was enlightening, and peeled back the curtain on one of Aincrad's most odd yet enduring heroes." acquaintances Spoiler AKANE "Mina's mopey brother. Talks tough. Haven't seen much to make me think he can back it up. Seems to care for her in his own way, which suffices. Presumably part of the Arbiters." ALKOR "Known from afar, we've had few direct interactions save that one time with the sickly treant. It didn't go far." AQUAN "A member of Firm Anima. We did a few things together a while back. Decent sort, but haven't seen him in awhile." ARABELLE "We met briefly before the last raid. Something's shifty in her eyes and the sharpness of her tongue. I remain wary." ARIEL "A capable warrior, we've fought by each other's sides several times, including in raids, against guardians and other occasions. All business, there has been little opportunity to learn any more about her." ASMURA "A fierce bundle of spirit and sweet innocence. She seems to have sadly gone to ground. I hope she's safe." ASSASSIN "We adventured together quite a bit in my earliest days. She shared some connection to Hidden, though I don't recall all of the details. Nearly cut her to ribbons one time, when she accidentally knifed me while fleeing some hunters. We largely lost touch after that." ASTRALIN "Self-proclaimed princess. Or maybe actual princess. I don't really recall which, but she acts more holier-than-thou than anyone else I've met in the game. Honestly not sure if it's sincere, but she seems to have quite the beef with Dazia. Having engaged once, with Setsuna, I've since chosen just to keep my distance and let them sort out their own affairs. Not a bad person, just... baggaged." ASTREYA "A sensitive young women with the heart of a firecracker. We rescued Koko from the bats together, though I had to kill two PKers to get us all to safety. Their names glare at me every time I visit the monument. She also kicked my ass at the Valentine's tournament that one time." BAHR "Can't say much. Though we've fought side by side several times, we've barely exchanged words. Fiercely independent, he clearly has his own opinions and some attachment to Lessa." BALDUR "They call him the gaijin samurai.. A solid examplar and early hero figure of mine, as I was clawing my way to the front lines. Smart. Resourceful. Bit stodgy, in that stoic way of those adhering so vociferously to Bushido. Respected, and with good reason. We've been in several raids together, but can't say that we've had much opportunity to get to know each other. I still hope that will change." BEAT "Vaguely recall meeting once, along with Shield. Unless that was Beatbox. Never really got to know either one. Mari seemed to be close to him." BEE "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program." BISMUTH "A fledgling member of Firm Anima. We ran a few missions together. Seems solid and capable, with potential." BISTRO "A capable provisioner, I think she's still sore at me for buying out her whole inventory that one time." BLUEBERRY "A staunch pacifist who seemed to think it was fine to let others do the heavy lifting with their consciences to keep hers clean. I was probably too hard on her during training, but Aincrad would be far crueler by far. She's been silent for some time, likely withdrawing to her bakery." CALREX "A stalwart frontliner reputed to have exceptionally soft hands. Not sure what that's all about and not sure I care to find out. Haven't seen him in ages." CHARLARR "A promising newcomer. I think the stress eventually got to him." CIRCE "Cocky type, but she seems to respect debts owed, which is good since she owes me one. I've encountered her twice, both times with Omen in tow." CORDELIA "Reminds me of Simmone, but with a colder more noble bearing, for all the prestige and warts that can carry. I ran into her first near Tanabata, along with Mari. We spoke again briefly in Ronbaru, if I recall. Capable. Strong. She was a frontliner while I was still mopping mobs around in my diaper - or so it seems. She's connected to Oscar in some manner, but I don't know all the details." CROZEPH "Food go nom nom nom. I think he ate all the other words I had to say." DEMIAN "Shop owner and reliable source of supplies. Our interactions have been strictly business-related." EULED "A fledgling player I once helped navigate the labyrinth of the Hoya." EULEGY (3ULEGY) "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program." FORGOTTEN-EMBER "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program." GAIUS "Freya's impulsive soulmate, the man is both guarded and wired at all times. Good in a fight. We've been guildmates forever, but have rarely had a chance to just sit and chat. He's apparently also quite the cook. It took a while, but Griswold finally seems to approve of him. If the old man can come around, he must be a good egg." GRIMM "A member of Firm Anima. We did a few things together a while back. Decent sort, but haven't seen him in awhile." GRISWOLD "Father to Eruda and Freya, he's tough as nails and just about as talkative. A dedicated smith and devoted parent, I've heard enough to know that he's done right by his girls in every way he could. As I spend more time tanking, I think I've come to understand him better, though we've never been the chummy types. He does what is needed, reliably, every time. That says a lot on its own." HIDDEN "Complicated. Moody. Deceptively capable. Hard on the nerves. We could have gotten along better than we did, but came to a mutual detente in the end. Who knows what the future might hold." HIKORU "An alter ego, by most accounts. The broker's broker on the information scene. We've had no direct dealings, save by proximity and common interests. I keep myself a step removed from the broker's network, these days. No doubt he'll be nipping at my heels eventually. Better leave him some moldy bread crumbs that lead towards the Sarlacc pit." IRIS "A shopkeeper and associate of NIGHT's. She catered one of the pre-raid meetings. Courteous and polite, but I didn't buy the innocent act for a moment." ITZAL The original spoopster. We fought alongside each other against Shadow. You'd think we were twinsies, for a time. Never really had the chance to get to know him." IVORY LOTUS "Trounced the Hoya together once, long ago. Don't remember much else." JEEVES "Miri's younger brother and Quaestor's brother-in-law. He'd as brilliant as he is undervalued and underestimated. The loss of his sister threw off the delicate balance he requires to function. Hopefully, her return combined with a place in O&I can refocus his energies in a more productive and beneficial fashion." KNIGHTINGALE "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program." KANDY "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program." KODO "A friend of Lium and Sam's. Decent, but troubled. Tried to help him out where I could." KOGA "We go to the same tailor and hairstylist. If I ever needed a clone or body double, he'd perfectly fit the bill. Decent fellow, but far nicer than I am. We had fund stomping pirates together, plus a few other adventures." KRYSTA "Wait.. which one is Krysta? I always confuse her with Astralin." KYO "We met briefly once, one of those times Vigilon fell out of the sky." KYOTO "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program. I also helped him out against the sand snekt thingy. Haven't seen or heard from him since." LESSA "Complicated... maybe? I can't really tell. She seems to have a kind soul and noble spirit, and a big heart, but every time I turn around she's hanging off some new guy's arm. First Bahr, then Jomei... I think Alkor fit in there somewhere too. Can't keep track, and I'm not convinced she can either. Brave and bold, Lessa's been a frontliner far longer than I have, but we've never really clicked. There's just something too clingy ir altruistic about her? Maybe I should value those qualities more. Plus, I think I pissed her off somehow, but the list of possible reasons is too long to run down. Feels like an opportunity missed. Maybe that can change someday?" LIUM "A pre-game friend of Sam's, I helped rescue him from imprisonment at the and of PKers. A capable fighter, the boy is undeniably traumatized and wants revenge. It could take a while to temper his iron into something that doesn't just destroy whatever it touches." MORGENSTERN "Mina's wayward boyfriend, I think? His made Hidden look like the head of the cheer squad by comparison. Associated with the Arbiters in some way, but I don't think he's actually a member. I'm tempted to start calling them the Brood Brigade and see if it sticks." NIAN "Imperial nutbar, with extra crazy sprinkles. Saw her from afar in Ladonia." NOBODY "Who?" OMEN "A brutish barbarian, at first glance, he's a capable fighter, if somewhat mercenary in his bearing. We're only met twice to date. Often follows Circe around like a puppy. Can't help but wonder how and why she holds his leash." PINBALL "We've grouped a few times, his shifty eyes and orange marker warranting wary interaction, especially given rumour and reputation. I've yet to be given or find any reason to trust him." POLLUX "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program." REBEKAH "Fought the Monkey King with her and Eruda once. I think Rai mentioned that she was an early mentor to him, once. Seems like the nomadic type. She didn't stick around." RULER "We ran a few quests together long ago. A solid knight, if a bit too stoic and rigid. I gave her my original weapon, the one NIGHT accidentally dropped at my feet when I first started. Haven't really heard from her since." RURI "Raidou would have to explain this one. I don't feel like I can do it justice." SABLE "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program." SEKURA "A spry young warrior, clever with her crossbow and her tongue. She impressed with her ability to bluff where strength and stats alone would have led to defeat. Hopefully, our face-off against Steve (aka the Forgotten Time King) will foster and encourage those talents." SENNO "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program." SHIELD "A castle rampart and AWAC with legs. Practical. Smart. One of the toughest tanks ever to walk the frontlines. We made a few quest runs together after the Shadow raid. He taught me the importance of teamwork, which I was sorely lacking at the time." SORA "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program." TIYE "A young player who once participated in the Sharkbait Training Program." VALENTINE "A member of Firm Anima. We did a few things together a while back. Decent sort, but haven't seen him in awhile." VAN "Participated in the Sharkbait Training Program once." VIE "Had to travel the way-back machine on this one, but I recall she was a good friend of Haine's. Haven't seen her in ages." VIGILON "Dedicated to his own tumultuous path, the man seems to fall out of thin air every time I encounter him, often landing himself into some new brand of trouble. Brash and bold to a fault, our interactions have been tense as a result. I've no time to put out the fires of someone who brandished matches with such blatant disregard." XENA "An old friend from my earliest days in Aincrad, she was always wrapped up in her own affairs too tightly to let others in. I tried, but to no avail, and have since lost tack of her again." ZENSHU "A tailor. Competent. Good to know, especially given their rarity." others Spoiler CHASER "A troubled soul who viewed the world through a singularly rigid lens. A highly capable, but unstable warrior desperately seeking someone to protect and be protected by - a mother figure. Mari fit the bill, causing no small tension between us that eventually led to open confrontation. A lost boy wielding more power than he could handle." DAZIA "A killer? A reprobate? A grudge? All three might be true. It would be wise of her to ensure that our paths do not cross again." MARV "The insanity of our one-sided friendship kept me from teetering over the edge. I owe him much for just listening, despite not having much of a choice. He made me appreciate a different perspective." NISAHIME "How to describe a thing that should not be, but is. A figment made real? A vivid delusion? A tray bit of undigested beef? Fucked if I know. But she's got that savant kind of crazy in her eyes, and I know we are connected, despite my own doubts, protests and denials." TAKESHI "You wouldn't believe me if I told you. And don't ask Montjoy He lies." Edited July 6 by Freyd Link to post Share on other sites
