 I'm a good and lazy person, and didn't see the point of more than one quest thread if I want three things. Why waste Gaian bandwidth? But, at any rate, here are the links to the shops that I'm questing for things from, in the order that they will be quested for: .The Gaia Jedi Academy.
 At any rate, hopefully this will enable me to achieve all three goals.

Name: Katl'luna'hehro ----Informal Name: Llunah ----Pronounciation: YOO-nah Gender: Female Appearance: Llunah would be very normal Chiss, with glowing red eyes and midnight-blue skin. Her hair would be very deep navy, nearly pitch-black, with very few highlights. Otherwise, she would also be an average humanoid. Her hair will be generally worn at about chin-length to try and hide a slightly squarish face, which will work because it's so thick. Her ears will get pierced before she moves up to Padawan stage. I kind of like imagining her wearing golden or yellow clothing, haha... >>; Personality (briefly): She has a hair-trigger temper and will get enraged or cry at the slightest provocation. Llunah has no comprehension of the word "peace" other than something unattainable. She has a very stange sort of wit and humor that seems to open herself up to said applications of her temper. Though she has a respect for order because of her upbringing, she seems to feel it doesn't apply to her. Lightsaber Color: Purple Style: Ataro (fifth style)- The most aggressive style.
Name: Riku ----Nicknames: Ruki, Rik, Riri, Li, Goon ----Pronounciation: RHEE-coo Age: Early/Mid Twenties Gender: Female Race: Human Occupation: Scientist Appearance: She looks childish and not at all her age. Her hair is a dark brown/gray tone, and cut with a jagged edge. Her eyes are a crystalline gray. She's not particularly curvy, possessed more of a willowy form than a tall one. She seems sort of wispy, like she's not really here- or shouldn't be. History: There's really not much to say. She was born in Midgar in the general vicinity of the time that Marlene was born, though they never knew each other. She was one of the children who was afflicted with GeoStigma,* and was present when Cloud began to heal the children. Since then, she grew up and aided ShinRa with returning the Planet to its former (aka: before ShinRa started with the Mako energy) glory for a few years after she finished her schooling. Eventually, through an unknown circumstance, she ended up on Gaia, away from her former compatriots and friends. Quote: "Apparently I made it out of kryton! Very unstable. I put a button on it. I want to press it, but... I don't know what will happen if I do.."
*I do have screenshots of the character that I would like to claim is Riku, but they're all at home and I'm currently away.

 Name: Enoch Seraphim Zaphikel Name Meaning: Enoch is the name of the book that tells of the fall of Lucifer and the creation of fallen angels. Seraphim means "firey one" and is a ranking of a High Angel. Gender: Female Program: Direct KiSS Virus: Aevum Powers/Skills: Shapeshifting. Enoch can change her hair color, hair length (within a few feet), her skin tone and body type, add and detract cellulite at will. She can work with the cartilige to increase her height by very small intervals (an inch and a half at most) or change the shape of her face, but cannot do anything with bones or bone structure. Her eye color is fluid as well. She is slightly empathic. Personality: Enoch would be a doll brought to life. She would be quiet when she thinks you want her to be, she would be loud when you feel she should be. If she is ever unhappy, she'll never show you unless you expect her to be. Like a real doll, she'll never tell your secrets or laughs- except when she thinks you expect her to. However, all that bottling up of how she really feels will create a dark, roiling mass of unspoken feeling. Enoch would be prone to explosions of negativity, lasting for a while- up to a month, and during that time, it would be as if she has a large thundercloud over her head, roiling with thunder and lightning. She would be a pious sort, adhering to one religion very sharply and applying everything literally. That one religion is very likely to be Christianity, but there are small factors that may change it. Enoch would like to read, play- do everything. She would try very hard to be perfect at everything she does, and throw all she has into it. She would be, as Maito Gai says, "a genius of hard work". She would absolutely refuse to do anything more dangerous than skiing or snowboarding, and probably do very badly with computers and science in general. She prizes her own possessions very highly and wouldn't like risking them breaking. Appearance: [roughly] [to be added] Guardian: Melusine Zaphikel Name: Melusine Irinim Zaphikel Age: 26 Gender: Female Species: Human; Homo Sapiens Occupation: V-Gen 'desk monkey'/Secretary- "I answer the fecking phones, address the fecking mail, tell people their fecking 5 o'clock is here, basically everything but what I'm paid to do- organize information." Religion: Christian Personality: Melusine is an optimistic bitchy sort, and leads a regular, well-regimented life. It shows in her attitude- she can take absolutely nothing in stride at all. Any change in her safe lifestyle sends her off the deep end into a panic attack of huge proportions. She enjoys teasing people and doesn't appear to know when to stop. An optimist, she always thinks the best of people in a bitchy way. In a panic situation, though, she digivolves into a drama-queen-pessimist Melu. She's a "sunshine" Christian and usually attends only on holidays. She has a passing interest in exorcism, which is why she carries a staff around, and has somehow managed to get her hands on a tame raven. Appearance: Melusine has black hair and gray eyes, and appears much younger than she looks. Even so, she has a nice figure and appears to enjoy wearing solid black/gray/white clothing. Family: Mother, Zenobi Zaphikel Father, Remus Zaphikel Uncle, Sevotharte Andrastos Cousin, Cassie Andrastos Cousin, Obiel Andrastos Ketchup or Mustard? Ketchup!

Name: Lilith Patroclus
Gender: Female
Abilities: Lilith, as the reincarnation of The White Suit, maintains some Death-Godlike powers. If you look at the manga Death Note, you'll see what I mean. She has a power focused in her eyes; she can see anyone's name and life span, though it won't mean much until she is older. She cannot see the lifespan of an immortal being, a supernatural being such as a Ghost of the Past, and nor can she see her own lifespan. This ability, coupled with what she'll gain from a quest, gives her her main power and position, as servant of either evil or the death gods. As long as she knows a name, she can strike anyone down with a pestilience (though she cannot make it fatal until Youth stage) or control someone else to kill another (though she cannot be sure it's working until Adult stage, because she doesn't really gain control of her powers until she gains a Shinigami friend) or simply just make them die. Basically, her job is a) collect debts owed to shinigami/death gods, b) create a 'list' to give to the shinigami/death gods until her Teen growth, c) take care of things the death gods can't. She has powers to do these things accordingly.
Race or Element: The White Suit/Personification of Death
Information on their previous life: You can find some version of the White Suit in any culture you care to look in; while he may not appear as a white-suited male, as he does with Lilith, he is definately there. Examples are Hermes, the one in Greek mythology who is also known as the messenger god; he leads the dead to the River Styx, where they are ferried across. Osiris may be seen as a White Suit-like character, though he is not strictly so. Lilith's myth, however, derives most strongly from the early American version of this tale, which has evolved into an urban legend of sorts.
You are, of course, familiar with the tale of the Mayflower. Who isn't? It is the story of the Pilgrims, the people to hold the "first" Thanksgiving. We begin this tale on a similar ship, one known as the Black September. This ship, so named, had a crew roster of 53 young men, all strong and able seamen, and could carry up to 150 passengers. It was an ocean liner of the era, and though it bore a slightly unlucky name, it had sailed well and true for twenty-five years at the time of our story.
You see, they were carrying one-hundred and thirty-four passengers with them, along with the fifty-three members of their crew, for a total amount of one-hundred and eighty-seven souls on their ship. But on the official roster, there were only one-hundred and eighty-six passengers and crew. Unknowing of the ghost aboard their ship, for that is what it was, the passengers- and the crew most of all- were frightened when a plague seemed to hit them, one, two, or even three or four people dying in a night, sometimes with no warning at all.
As the number of passengers and crew aboard the ship decreased, the speed increased. At first this seemed a godsend to all of the passengers and crew, even as bodies were tossed overboard and quickly left behind, never to see native soil again. It quickly dawned on them that it was not; the plague that was stalking them was moving faster than ever, trying to pick them all off before they ever even hit the New World's shores.
And so it was that they beached their ship in the midst of a Maine winter, exactly forty-seven people left among them. The people gathered together, erecting one small space to keep the two remaining children and the sick, and then trying simply to survive the winter. But as more of them died off at the hands of the northeastern deep freeze, they began to slowly give up hope. When only thirteen families, some of them only the mother and father of young couples with no children, others with one child remaining to them, a man appeared in the doorway of their small construction in the middle of the thick Maine woods. He had the thickest black hair any of them had ever seen, besides in descriptions of wild, terrifying Indians; but his skin was as white as the snow outside. His lips were blood red, and his eyes were narrow, a pupilless black. He was clad all in white; he looked like the personification of Winter, except for a small, dying posie of purple lilacs and white lilies peeking out of his pocket.
You're all dying, he said with amusement, Dying. No one will remember you. He offered them all a toothless smile. I'll save you. he offered wordlessly, narrowed eyes becoming nearly slits. If you can pay me back.
"What is the payment?" the eldest left among them asked. "We won't agree until we know!"
One member of your thirteen families, every year, once you are well-established. Give me that, and your town shall prosper.
They all exchanged looks, the elderly, the children, the young couples. One from each of their families? Once they were well-established, though... The eldest nodded. "We accept. Please, help us." It was a bargain made of desperation; thirteen of them to save the rest.
And so it was that the small Maine town of King's Crossing came into being, and it existed for well over five hundred years, thirteen of its members dying every year, the White Suit's share of the people. But they understood, and they knew that their long-ago ancestors had had no other choice but to die.
In the year two thousand of their current era, a new priest joined their parish, a woman by the name of Mother Farrell. After enough research, she decided; this town was plagued by the Devil himself. Well thought out, he congratulated as he appeared to simply poof into being behind her. Not quite right, though.
Mother Linda turned quickly. "What're you--"
Hush now, no need to yell. A toothless smile. I only wish to make a bargain with you; do not interfere with me, and I will not interfere with you. Is it acceptable?
"Never." she said calmly, her searching hand finding an incense burner and raising it, then swinging it- hard- down at the white-clothes man's head. Black blood covered her, her robes, everything, as he fell to the ground, dead. Mother Linda didn't even have to check to know; even something as simple as an incense burner had been blessed here, in this parish.
And so it was that a male soul was discovered by Matilda's spell, dead unfairly; for it had been a deal, and he was only fulfilling his part of the pact. But the spell had no more male bodies; only a female, for the moment. In went the soul, and thus the White Suit was given... another... chance.
Personality from Baby to Adult As a baby, she would be sort of calm and prone to staring, because, after all, she's seeing funny letters and numbers FLOATING ABOVE YOUR HEAD. She would often start crying for no reason, though she'd be easily calmed. (damn, those scary shinigami move really fast!) Because of her see-ing shinigami thing, she'd be very introverted and not want to leave her home much. She'd do alot of things for no reason, such as liking graveyards and other creeeeeepy things.
Lilith as a toddler would now be able to RUN AWAY from the scary shinigami. Oooo, novel concept. I can imagine particularly well her starting to play little, mean tricks on people like tying their shoelaces in complicated knots, or putting salt on toothbrushes. She still stares at strange things, but as she's learning to read she's starting to notice who has numbers and who doesn't. She probably would keep herself inside, except on gloomy days, because of two things; her skin burns easily, and she doesn't like pain, and because there are people outside!! nuuu! T^T Also, she begins to cultivate her intellect with reasoning and logic tests from her guardian, the "mad scientist".
Now she's old enough to hear shinigami. So there's no reason to run away, right? Right. It'll become a very common sight for Lilith to be talking to thin air now, often asking questions and listening as if someone's really answering her. Her intelligence lends credibility to this, causing some to wonder if she's insane or a genius. She will probably understand a short way through this stage that she's seeing lifespans, and begin to interpret what she sees. Knowing this will temper her reactions to people; she won't make friends with people who are to die soon, and will often try to become best buddies with those who have a longer lifespan. Lilith'd have developed a fear of loss, seeing what she sees everyday. She starts to act more ambitious, going for the gold in everything and not being able to bear being beaten or refused anything. Because of her close relationship with the shinigami, she would start to have weird dreams about being on a ship...
Lilith, after learning of her past life, has never been happier. She will have gained a shinigami companion, as well as a notebook in which to record whom she wants dead, Death-Note-esque. But now she understands why she's been seeing creepy-looking people, and is starting to enjoy her abilities, both metaphysical and intellectual. Though her original purpose was to kill, now she only kills as she is told and tries to avoid doing her work unless directly ordered to. Even as she is reluctant to do it, she has no morals that stop her from killing through the notebook. It's only when she must do it in real life that she flakes out.
She had no problem accepting what had happened to her past life. It didn't really affect who she was, and she didn't have to truly continue her former work. Lilith still answers to the shinigami and their orders, and makes sure none of the mass murderers on Gaia get too out-of-hand. She's become even closer to her shinigami buddy, and is starting to lose that flakiness that came with her slight moral compunctions.
As an adult, she might be one of those mature, self-assured women who appear to have it all together. Except that, unlike those others, she does have it together in every way possible. Regimented and scientifical, she is the dream grown daughter for any mother, especially a mad scientist. Perhaps her only flaw is what she keeps in the basement... a shinigami and a black book.
Hair and eye colors Black and black.
General Physical Description From Baby-Adult A chubby little baby with snow-white skin, thick eyelashes and a tuft of true-black hair. Her fingers should have a pinker tint than the rest of her skin, almost as if they'd been burned.
A little growth would thin Lilith out, giving her a bit of childish elegance. Her hair would be down to about her shoulders, and she might stand at about 3'5". The pink "burns" would extend to cover most of her fingers and darken to a light red, still too light to be 'red' but too dark to be 'pink'.
At child stage, her hands up to mid-forearm would be bloodred, with black tints in places that give her arms a look of decay, with the colors cutting off sharply. Her limbs would be slightly longer than the average proportions allow, making her look a bit lanky and overgrown for her age. Her hair would be a little past her shoulders now, and a bit darker and less shiny.
With her teen growth, she'd acquire pierced ears and her hair would be alot more vibrant, perhaps with red or blue streaks in it. Her incisors would have grown to fangs, and her nails to black-colored claws. The red tint will have smoothed out alot, not ending very abruptly as they did in prior stages, fading kind of more gently. She'd have more of a smooth figure than a voluptous one.
Youth-stage Lilith wouldn't really change much, except her eyes would have red in the whites and black still for iris/pupils... and... Iunno what else she might get. Tattoos?
Adult-stage Lilith's hair would be all-black again, with a small skull mark at the corner of her left eye.
Distinctive Marks
Red tint on hands, eye color past Youth stage, disproportionate limb length compared to body
General likes and dislikes Lilith would be a fan of apples, and fruit in general. Gambling, haggling, and games would also be way up on her list of "heckyay" things. She wouldn't like anything sour, and spicy things would probably not be up on her list of liked things. She also wouldn't like anyone of a lower mental capacity than herself, as they are usually easily tricked. She would hate sailing and ships in general.
Hobbies Cooking, doodling, kareoke, scheduling, observing experiments, and she also likes to walk around in the rain, looking at people, and bargaining.
