Huh I wonder what that's about. "I uh made some ice cream." She smiled at both of them, "would you like to try some?" @The Aspiring Archivist @Aeoryi (you can wander in if you want) and anyone else too!!) Eddie smiles at her. “Sure! Thanks.” 2 minutes ago, The Bookwyrm said: Quote Lore… Arbiter is basically the name of Archie’s character. Currently, they’re all on a train (time periods don’t make sense, everyone has magic and swords and daggers) (except Eddie, she’s steampunk) They’re going to mountains!!

Tell me if I break anything.

The Aspiring Archivist any Posted October 8, 2023 Report Share Posted October 8, 2023 (edited) 8 minutes ago, The Bookwyrm said: Quote Basically, Eddie's aunt Athena wants to sacrifice her and consume her essence. There are people aiding Athena and people defending Eddie. They've mostly just been running and fighting, not too much concrete plot I think. The Arbiter is one of my characters, he's basically a god who specializes in conflicts between mortals and immortals and comes down to arbitrate and occasionally provide aid. He creates what he calls "forms," a unique one for each group he follows, which are different beings with varying levels of self and autonomy. They exist only for the purpose of whatever case they're in. Vena is a particularly independent one. Also, there's a lot of awkward romance stuff going on. Specifically, Eddie, Lilyana (Wizzy), and Aster (Aeoryi) are all in a love triangle of sorts, and Xq (Raven) has a crush on Vena I guess though whether that will become anything is uncertain. Feel free to partake in any of that if you feel like it, I guess 3 minutes ago, The Wandering Wizard said: Lilyana dipped a spoon into the ice cream and aimed it at Vena's mouth but stopped just shy of it.

He's a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years, with dark brown skin and short curly hair. He wears a large waterproof jacket, cargo pants, and hiking boots, all in colors of grey and black. He also wears a sturdy backpack, and is holding a silvery handgun. "Where," he asks between gasps for air, "is this train going?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
