Void Rift Report!

How about some Aurilon lore?

Tonight's focus: Aria, the Singer of the Abyss

Spoiler: Year 5

"Mother?"
"Yes, dear?"
"Why do they seek our blood? What did we do to bring this upon ourselves?"
"I... I don't know for sure. I promise you, though, we will endure."
"Why would they attack a people known to be unarmed? What would they gain?"
"Again, dear, I don't know. I will hold them off... I must."
The toddler slides out of her seat and towards the door.
"Why can't we fight?"
"They would overpower us. We cannot hope to survive that way."
She slinks back.
"Don't we have any friends who can help us?"
"I..."
The mother looks guilty.
"...We're on our own."

Spoiler: Year 7

"Mother, please... We all hate to see you in so much pain..."
"I have no other choice. I cannot let your blood spill to their ambitions."
She steps closer, fists clenched.
"You'll drain yourself, then you too will be at their mercy!"
"They have other enemies. I pray that they will fall to another first."
She shakes her head, frustration growing.
"I cannot stand to submit you to this torment! I refuse to wait for others, we must act!"
The mother steps back and breathes heavily, looking gloomily at the ground.
"...Dear, please... I can't bear the thought of losing you..."
...

-Year 16-
Steel... Screams... Blood.
The Storm Barrier had been breached.

Spoiler: Year 18

"Dear, run... Please... Kai can outpace them!"
"Mother, I won't let them touch you!"
"No! Please! You cannot possibly..."
"Kai can do more than outpace them."
The mother looks at the shaking walls of the shrine.
"...Promise me you will be safe."
"I promise."
"...Are you sure?"
"As sure as the tide."

 

This is actually going to fit in with Daras (I'm guessing this is the Lost Kingdom attacking them?). I'll post more information on him once the rp progresses a bit more.

 

A few extra Aurilon details.

Spoiler: ...In here, though.

Spoiler: Yes, I do realize everyone clicks the Spoilers anyways.

Spoiler: Yes, I assume you click them.

Spoiler: Okay, I promise I'm done having fun with this.

Sorry. Had to.

-All Three Beasts-
They're genderless, though referred to as male (except for Ziz)
They're mortal but can be reborn
If their respective Daughter of the Storms dies, they will die permanently.

-Aria-
The Leviathan is named Kai.
She wears a flowing blue dress and has similar colored hair.
She only knows how to bend water slowly (she can't attack with it) and call Kai (who, on the contrary, is happy to eat or sink just about anything)
Extremely apologetic, extremely caring. Rather curious.

-Rina-
The Ziz is named Claire
She wears white robes and has short blond hair.
She can call Claire and has basic training with a lance. (Her lance is enchanted to reform back in her hand after losing a certain amount of velocity from a throw)
Rough on the outside, soft on the inside. Almost never sarcastic, sometimes lonely.

-Lisa-
Calls Behemoth "Maxie" or "Max"
Wears a dress that's not nearly as flowing as Aria's and is grey in color (or brown, if Maxie just plowed through a mountain)
She can raise large pieces of land from the ground and slam them either back down or somewhere else. (She also knows how to not fall off Maxie when he's charging through mountains)
Maxie doesn't really care what he plows through (also being taught to "sit")
Enthusiastic, mostly fearless, and somewhat impatient. Bitter but respectful around royalty.

 

Ok, I think it's time to start releasing info on Daras.

Spoiler: Abilities

Ok, so here are some abilities:
Teleportation: We know that he is good with teleports, but how good? He can teleport through anything you do. If you teleport away from him, he follows you.
Shift-Cloning: Basically, he uses his mass to create clones of himself, which are exactly like him in every way, except for size if he wants to larger than his clones, which he never does. And of course, if you kill him, the original Daras, then all of the clones die too. But a shift-clone is just as bad as the original Daras in every way, as they are the same.
Psychonic Magic: This is possibly the most dangerous things he has. He can listen to stray thoughts with this. But that is just the least of his powers with this magic. He can actually to invade your mind. If a character is trained to protect themselves from this then they are fine. Also, Eras and Gods (not sure about demigods though) are immune to this. As for the draconians, I don't know if they would be able to protect themselves from this.
Necromancy: While not as dangerous as the Psychonic Magic, necromancy is still very dangerous. Especially when one of the places he is still linked to is the Lost Kingdom, which has lots of dead bodies which have been buried or have rotted over time or sunken into the sea around it. Also, you might want to keep him away from No Man's Land...
Combat: Daras easily wins non-magical combat. There

Spoiler: More Possible Events

So I'll just leave the previously made ones here to be helpful:
If Ihra dies, Eras will never forgive himself.
He also wants to protect Xephyr, since she also was once evil and now seems to be changing from her past.
As he did in the past, Eras will destroy anyone who attempts to destroy his kingdom or even does damage it a lot.
Eras does not kill enemies on sight, unless his kingdom is destroyed. Exceptions to this may be the first two events if they happen later in the rp.

But here are some new ones:

If Eras has to choose between letting Ihra die or killing Daras, he will kill Daras.
As for Xephyr, this will likely depend on how the rp goes for Eras, as he might change later. I won't say anything about what, but there are things which could happen and change everything entirely, for the worse.
If anyone else is about to be killed by Daras, Eras will let them die.
If Daras dies to Eras, Eras won't exactly be happy. Depending on how events in the rp go, he might stay at the Lost Kingdom forever.
Also, if Daras does die, Ihra will actually have a place to hide: the area around the Birthlake. It is pretty much overgrown with plants and life, unlike the rest of the island which is very desolate.
It is quite possible that Eras, depending on how events in the rp go, will actually stop anyone from killing Daras and then imprison him somewhere with powerful magic, like the Void Palace, as he could drain Daras' power to stop him from teleporting away.
And of course, the 'Darklands destroyed' and the 'does not kill on sight' things above all of the new ones do apply to Daras, except for Xephyr's death event, which will depend on events in the rp.

 

Ihra and the Birthlake.

Oh god why.

...What comes after "overgrow?"

-----

Anyhow, my turn.

Spoiler: Ultimates!

These hurt.

These really hurt.

You've been warned. Half now, Half later.

Spoiler: Fragments of Divine Judgement

Ihra - Radiant: Emit a massive burst of light magic. It's so powerful, the area will remain illuminated and remove any cloak, stealth, or hiding effects for a day (Radiance). Ihra will fall asleep shortly after use due to her young age. Radiant also has a chance to prevent victims from using any form of magic as long as the Radiance lasts.

Vesius - Fury of the Midnight Dawn: A rising spin-attack that locks the victim in place upon targeting. Vesius and three shadow clones dash at the target and perform a dual-blade strike that leaves a screw-thread-like trail of light and darkness that heal and restore energy if Vesius remains in their proximity. All strikes pierce shields.

Vei - Apocalypse: A brutal homing attack that suppresses any form of teleportation or travel. A wall of twenty types of magic collapse towards the target (single target only, affects that target and that target only) and will break any spell shields. As with every time Vei kills something, killing with Apocalypse will reset Vei's energy levels. If used more than once in a certain time period, Apocalypse has a potentially fatal recoil.

Tirai - Judgement: Judgement enchants Virei'tus' Gavel to become perfectly weightless, break shields, and ignore armor. The effect lasts until a break in combat.

Riihs - Diplomatic Immunity: Single-target mark. The Mark increases damage and nullifies shields on its target, and Riihs cannot be harmed or affected by anyone other than the target who has The Mark.

 

Noticed Rogue left this out of the Brisingr stuff... Here

Population census as of 1 BV: 312 million (rip? T.T)
Army: 36 million
King: none (the king was assassinated recently. A new king will soon be selected should no heir be found)
Heirs: none

Humans - The only inhabitants to be accepted by a dragon. Population: 33%
Salamen - Red bipedal lizards native to Brisingr that are very skilled with fire magic. Some of them choose to live as nomadic tribes outside of the city, but they are sworn to fight in wars against Brisingr’s enemies.
Population: 19%
Orcs - Green skinned and strong brutes
Population: 23%
Elves - The best archers and mages, but rare worldwide
Population: 5%
Dwarves - Short people that are very dedicated miners and blacksmith
Population: 20%

Creatures

Dragons - Fearsome beasts that nearly destroyed the inhabitants in the beginning. They disappeared and were thought to be extinct until they came back and signed an alliance with the humans. Since then, tamed dragons have selected humans to fight alongside them, as dragon and rider. Wild dragons can still be seen if one looks into the mountains or the open sky long enough.

Watchers - Reflet’s mistakes, these stone giants rose from the core and made their home in Watcher’s Ravine. They can only be killed by a stab in their reactor heart or by extreme, melting heat.

Lares - Angry ghosts from the past who haunt places of tragedy and warfare. They are often heavily armored and known to kill humans that resemble their murderer. Philosophers studying Lares say that a Lare’s only wish is to be dispelled into the void.

Wyrms - Feetless dragons that are usually black or red. They slither across ravines and through the tunnels of the mountains, attacking miners without a thought. They are hunted by Dragon Riders and near extinction.

Griffons - Winged mountain lions with the head of eagles, these creatures attack stragglers and other vulnerable people.

Wars/Battles

The Dragon Wars - The first major war in history, between the inhabitants and the dragons. After ages of bloodshed, it finally ended with the dragons disappearing for ages and later agreeing to an alliance with the humans.

The Battle of Drowned Souls - Back in the ancient days, it was the bloodiest battle ever fought. Elgyem and Teraglyph collided, both sides hitting a standstill with powerful mages and Dragon Riders on both sides. Eventually both sides retreating, suffering a loss of over 2 million soldiers.

The War of The Divides - The war between the insane Watchers and the inhabitants. The Watchers were incredibly hard to kill, but the inhabitants too many. The Watchers killed thousands, but eventually their numbers thinned.

The Watchers retreated to the Watcher's Ravine and bided their time, hoping more reinforcements would come. After nearly 25 years of waiting, the Watchers were challenged by the hero Uthrail. Uthrail tore the Watchers apart one by one, throwing the Watchers back into the ravine.

The Inferno - Uthrail came back from Mount Vel'Nar with a legendary hammer, but he still hadn't proved he was the greatest. Uthrail made for the town of Telrain, the hometown of the so called greatest hero in the land, Gladeus.

Uthrail was welcomed enthusiastically by the city, and when the lord himself came to greet him, Uthrail brought the hammer down on the ground. The hammer split the earth, creating Sorrow's Ravine and bringing Telrain into the core. Uthrail was never heard from again, though people speculate Uthrail made it out of Telrain alive, through the passage to Rytlee. They say he could have possibly had descendants...

The Battle of Blazing Swords - The Brisin had formed a blockade through the main pass at Solignis to keep the Gargantuan out of the mainland. The Gargantuan eventually arrived in their war mechs, and the Brisin Fire mages were shooting down all their projectiles. The Gargantuan had no choice but the charge and meet the large Brisin army head on.

The fire mages and dragons melted through the armor of the Gargantuan, and the Brisin army had the Gargantuan at a choke point. Eventually the Brisin beat them back and chased them into their own land.

The Rebellion of the Eternal Flame - The rebellion began when the king began importing orcs as slaves. Much of Brisingr believed the kingdom should remain free, so they fought back. The army was outnumbered and eventually the king sent the orcs to form their own city called Hylius.

 

Nyre hasn't killed much over ten thousand. (yet)

Feiha's yet to be seen for a while, too. She's mostly been resting, though.

 

My joke reactions to this:
"Wait, Brisingr has elves?! I'm going to find the best way to make Eras declare war on Brisingr!"
"WHAT?! IT HAS A POPULATION THAT BIG?! My kingdom only has like 6 million..."

My real reaction: This is some interesting lore... I like the wars a lot!

And time for some more lore on... well, that's for everyone to guess:

Spoiler: I wonder what this is...

"Thara... she shouldn't have died..."
"I'm sorry... I should have foreseen this and warned you."
"It's not your fault. I should have taken advice. I should never have fallen in love with a mortal... Our cult forbids such things for a reason."
"Take your mind off of this. Let's think about the task at hand."
"You're right... I guess... I'm calling the mortal twin... Tharan, to honor Thara... and the other, I will call Daras."

 

Yeah it's pretty big... Mostly because so many people gathered when it was first formed. The cities are supposed to be gigantic, but they aren't the only places people live. Technically every city has farming villages, too. But those are actually too small to be seen. Brisingr being as huge as it is >.>

Rogue was pressuring me a bit, saying "there's no way your kingdom could beat Gargantuan." So I used massive population (supposedly Gagantuan was on par, anyway), dragons, and fire mages as an excuse.

And I added elves because I love elves. If I love something it must be added.

 

I neglected to mention a certain event triggered by Reflet's emotions.

Oh well

Riihs is Poppy confirmed?

For Demacia!

 

Rip old Poppy ult. Will be missed.
(What am I talking about, I play support)

Only difference is that one is a legitimate diplomat.

The other cleaves through armor like paper.
...
Someone had to teach Ihra.

 

u guys should make this into an actuall rp, not some, chat rp....

 

Yeah...
No.

This can go too many different ways.
There's nothing wrong with a forum rpg.

 

When you leave your guild to make one themed off this.

I'm way too invested into this... Eh, who am I kidding?

 

Oh, right, yeah.

Maybe should've mentioned that one of the Fragments of Decay...

Spoiler: Well...

...is Vesius' twin sister.

 

Ehm...
Right...
Yeah...
Okay...
Sec...
Trying...
To...
Process...
What...
Just...
What...

So that's psycho Vesius suicide girl, then.

 

Except not suicidal.
In fact, she grows more powerful the longer a fight lasts.
If she hadn't been leeching energy from the fallen Watcher, it would've taken longer.

...Albeit not much longer.

 

I meant she causes a suicide if ya know :|

 

Oh. Yeah.

So, their blades have a little secret.
You see, Vesius has three tomes and two blades, one aligned to darkness and the other light.
His sister is the opposite. Except she doesn't have tomes.

Her magic comes in the form of actually having full control of her two weapons (both opposite alignment to Vesius')

Spoiler: In case that wasn't obvious, I'll say it bluntly...

Vesius' blades are sentient.

...Don't worry, it wasn't that obvious. (Now it is, though)

 

Also Reflet is kind of a reflection of my actual personality + who I wish I was.

I'm a crazy sadist who has these odd streaks where sometimes I want everyone to die and other times I want myself to die. I was actually laughing a bit as that guy basically killed himself. It's creepy and odd as heck, trust me. I know, I'm a monster.

And then some other stuff is generally lacking self confidence if someone isn't speaking directly to me, (Despite being a god) and lots of social isolation and stuff, Reflet actually surrounded herself with automatons (and gave some bits of her soul to give them actual emotions O.o You basically destroyed parts of her soul when you killed the Watchers) because she got so lonely, being down in the Core for millenia.

Don't know if that should have been mentioned or not.
