Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Okay, but remember that the official character limit is two, but you can have as many NPCs as you want/need. The NPCs are allowed to be killed easier and some can be controlled by others and are susceptible to godmodding unless they are vital characters to their original controller's plan. They are also obviously not your main character(s). Just a reminder! 3nodding Okay, time to write a paper! xd ))

((I figured that they were vital to your plot. I just wanted to let you know, though, that all but Willow and one other with a posted profile will be considered NPCs. Though their control belongs to you, that is their technical title and will not have a posted profile. If you write one up for each of them, though, I would love to see them!

So everyone knows, Rush and Crush will be absent for the next few days and gave me temporary permission to control his character if that need should arise for whatever reason.

Hopefully, I will be capable of getting around to posting this evening! Sorry again for the absences.))

((I moved your characters’ profiles to Defenders!))

Rodger nodded, his eyes shifting to the surroundings upon occasion as Loki spoke, his ears concentrating on the girl’s words.

A small, knowing smile played at the corner of his mouth at Loki’s final statement. “Surprises come in an abundance in this ‘mythical’ world of ours!” His smile widened. “Let me be the first to welcome you back to the Defenders, then!”

His attention snapped to the entrance as Vanessa strode through, her scythe in hand.

“You’re carrying that thing around again?” he mocked, the smile visible in his eyes sparkling at Vanessa’s irritated scowl.

The librarian’s eyes fell to Loki and Jarod, her eyes narrowing. “You two were here before we left.”

“They’re good, Nessa,” Rodger put in reassuringly. “There a couple of us. Thinking of, I should probably go let one of the ‘Keepers know.” He turned to face Loki and Jarod. “It’s been a pleasure! I should be back soon, but I’m sure Vanessa will be more than happy to answer any questions or needs you have.”

Flashing his white teeth, he turned toward the doors and passed Vanessa.

“We need to talk when you get back,” she muttered as the man passed and left with a nod.

She turned her attention to Loki and Jarod for a moment before going to her desk and looking in the brown paper bag sitting amid the clutter. “Ah, good. He remembered.” Walking behind her desk, she leaned her double-bladed scythe against the wall behind her and looked the two up and down. “So, tell me; what had you with that woman?” She spat the last word.






Karinda smiled slightly as Plushy wrapped his tail around the girl to place her on his back.

“Grammercy, good dragon!” she said as air again swirled around her, lifting her as a scowling Saiirin took to the air beside her. “Allow our journey to commence!” With one hand in the pocket of her borrowed red hoodie ((I think I once stated that that is what she is wearing. Correct me if I am wrong!)), she stretched her arm in front of her, the tip of the sword clutched in her hand pointing ahead of her.




((By the way, this is kind of why I want the profiles of only your main characters, Rikku. smile ))

Carissa’s eyes were scrunched shut, her breathing growing heavier as her eyes moved beneath their lids.

Agrona’s foot tapped against the tiled kitchen floor, her impatience eating away at her as she watched the Seer.

With a gasp, Carissa’s eyes flew open, her irises now black. Her head tilted up, her eyes cast unseeingly to the ceiling.

“Into the world, only a select few can pass,” she began, her voice holding a dark undertone as Agrona leaned forward, her eyes glued to the woman across from her. “Some of those with hearts and spirits strong enough to enter,” a light formed in the center of the crystal and quickly spread to engulf the entire stone orb, “are Karinda Drathone and Saiirin.” With a flash of the golden light, a hologram formed above the orb, the light changing colors to reveal a brown-haired girl and a silver dragon in flight. “Loki and Jarod ((last name?)).” The hologram shifted to reveal two people, one a young boy with brown hair and blue eyes and the other, taller girl with silvery gray hair holding his hand. “Willow Reaper.” The light morphed into a woman with long black hair sitting on an invisible object, a scythe leaning against something next to her ((Sorry, I do not know her current position so just guessed)). “Plushy the dragon.” The image shimmered into a large red dragon readying for flight. “Akuma ((Last name?)).” The hologram changed again, showing a man with blue eyes. short black hair, and a device resembling a large phone with a solid blue and a blinking red light held in his hands.

The images faded and, with a loud moan from Carissa, the light disappeared as quickly as it had come. The woman slumped forward with a groan and pushed the crystal away before placing her arms on the table and resting her head on them.

“T-there are others,” she muttered, her shaky words scarcely audible. “I couldn’t force them to be revealed. T-they are too well protected.”

In a swift, fluid motion, Agrona stood, Carissa’s muscles tensing at the sound of her chair moving back.

“You have been most useful,” Agrona appraised monotonously as she passed the slouched woman. She strode quickly to the front door and left.



The scratching of a pen on paper filled the medium-sized room. Artificial light cascaded in from a single window behind the desk at which Chaim sat, one hand placed on his forehead and the other creating arcane symbols on a piece of white paper. The desk’s surface was cluttered with books and scrolls, leaving only a small triangle of space for the sea angel to work on its mahogany wood.

A loud, shrill bell sounded through the room, making Chaim jump and reach for the sword leaning against one of the drawers of the desk.

Realizing what the sound was, he sighed and brandished a cell phone from his pocket. Flipping it open, he looked at the caller ID and answered it.

“Miranda,” he said with confusion and concern. “Is all well?”

“Chaim!” The woman sounded breathless and her next words were quick. “Chaim, I—Someone forced the information. Th-the names are known. Well, some.”

“What?” Chaim sat his pen down on the desk, his eyes shifting to the tall door across from him. His expression paled and the corners of his mouth fell.

“S-someone else is looking for the same people as you,” she answered, her voice soft. “It’s not an easy thing to do, forcing things like that. I only know one other person who knows how to do that, and--” her voice trailed off.

“I know, Miranda,” Chaim replied sullenly as he stood and rested the phone between his shoulder and ear. “I know. Are you home?” He picked up his sword and looped the belt around his waist.

“N-no, but I will be shortly.”

“I’ll be there soon, then.”

“Good.”

He heard a click as she hung up. Replacing his phone in his pocket, he collected his cloak from where it hung on a hook on the wall beside the door, opened the heavy door, and left.

((are some of the ones they cant 'see' my other characters? Also, I should be able to send you Noci's profile tonight at somepoint.))

((Rikku, the ones they cannot see right now are for the sake of future characters. Only the ones with posted profiles are going to be capable of entering into the other dimension. If you need all of them there, PM me and we can try to work something out.))

Karinda's face fell as Plushy went onward on foot. She followed at the dragon's left, the wind carrying her in front of the dragon as she turned around to face him.

"We are walking?" Karinda asked as Plushy turned left on Green Street. Her form continued to glide backwards, her head turning to glance at what was coming every now and again. "What creature walks when capable of flight? Caution clearly is not necessary for you here." She gestured to the many cars that swerved nonchalantly to avoid the mighty beast's hulking form trudging down the extra-wide streets. Her eyes shifted to a few pedestrians on the sidewalks who spared the group only a quick glance before continuing onward. "Flight grants great speed. 'Tis no reason I can see to avoid what comes naturally to your kind!"

She turned to face the way ahead of her at the sound of water cascading into a small pool of the same element. Speeding ahead of the dragon, her feet touched the ground beside the fountain near where a man sat reading a book at a bench beside it. Saiirin landed on the brown brick edge of the wall keeping the water restrained, her claws clicking against it.

Karinda leaned over the brick wall, reaching her hand out to touch the cascading water as Plushy stepped over it. The man looked up as Plushy's form blocked out the sun, the man's eyes widening as the water sprayed back down forcefully.

With a yelp, Karinda commanded the air to create a swirling fan above her and the man, and Saiirin, redirecting most of the water.

Once Plushy was beyond the fountain, she let the fan die.

"Thanks," the glaring man grumbled to Karinda, wiping off a couple droplets of wetness that had landed on his book.

"'Twas my pleasure," Karinda answered him with a bow before she shot upward, the ensuing wind causing the man's book to flip a page.

Karinda and Saiirin quickly caught up again with plushy.

"'Twould also be far more convient for the people if you were to fly," she muttered, glancing back at the fountain where the man now stood and walked to another bench sitting in front of one of the many tall buildings surrounding the roundabout.

The girl looked up at the buildings towering above her, her breath catching in her lungs.

'Tis strange how they do not tumble to the earth, she commented to Saiirin as the silver dragon's wings beat beside her.

The dragon only nodded.

Plushy

"We are walking? What creature walks when capable of flight? Caution clearly is not necessary for you here. Flight grants great speed. 'Tis no reason I can see to avoid what comes naturally to your kind! 'Twould also be far more convient for the people if you were to fly." Karinda said. Plushy answered, "Not for the Noci, she know nothing about riding dragons, are you want to lose her somewhere on the way so she gets lost? You where the one asking her to come with!"

Plushy walked over the wish foutain next, the soft gush of water just reaches the bottom of his belly. He more walked in it than over, for it was big pooled, and very large around. Plushy checked his street signs, Brown and Tan.

Plushy stop, he still stand in the middle of the wish foutain, an idea in his head, he asked the Karinda "Would you like to learn how to ride a dragon? Plushy could teach you, if you wanted to learn..."

((I meant the way she talks, not what she says, in other reopleays some people find her way of talking too confusing, but i dont change it cose its part of who she is))

((oh also, i finished a character sheet for noci, like i said just for reference, not my second character, want me to pm it to you so you can check it out?))
