Espilan's Two Derps

[lifeforced]

NAME: Espilan
CONTACT: Espilan
TIMEZONE: US/Eastern

---

CHARACTER: Desidera Neroni | original | unlogic
CHARACTER AND AU SUMMARY:
• A mage girl with daemonic traits as a direct result of some dumbass contract bullshit that her mother went and tried to do before she was born, which did not work as intended. She lived a ridiculously-sheltered life before Daybreak, because the Veil is a thing and there's not exactly much an obviously-not-fully-human kid can really do without violating it. She used to kind of hate her mother for it all, but they are now on far better terms in part because needing to come to Daybreak has turned out to be literally the best thing to ever happen to her.
• At this point, she identifies herself as more daemon than human, but she also hasn't abandoned her humanity. She's also pretty sure of the finer details of the aforementioned incident (but has not outright confirmed it), but doesn't plan to actually do anything about that because she's come to accept everything being the way it is.
• She does not remember anything about her father aside from the fact that he's human, and has assumed that her parents separated because of her mother's actions. She's also unaware that she has an older half-brother through him. (For AU-planning purposes, if anybody actually wants either of those roles for any character being considered, I am open to planning things out!)
• She is one of Valvatorez's protégés, having been specifically pointed in his direction due to her particular needs when she first came to the academy. (He may or may not be gradually preparing her for possible work as an assistant to him in the future.) She prefers wielding her daemonic powers (which are largely shadow manipulation, but not limited to that) over ordinary magic anymore, and tends to get awfully creative with them at times.
• She's presently in a relationship with Gunvolt, and they've somewhat-recently finally had their first actual date. She's also the adoptive older sister to Monarch, a magitech AI idol singer that she and Gunvolt helped rescue (twice) from people looking to exploit her.

CHARACTER: Rebecca Fulton | original | lifeforced
CHARACTER AND AU SUMMARY:
• The daughter of two Hunters in a clan that prioritizes dealing with human threats (as in, they primarily deal with people who are found to be actively seeking to help bring about Nightfall/etc). The clan has numerous enemies, and as such, its members frequently relocate to reduce the risk to themselves as well as risks to any of the places where they make their homes.
• She met Lia Brooks when she was twelve (in 2014), while her family was living in New York. They were friends back then, and remained in touch after Becky's family moved away. Reuniting at Daybreak was a surprise to both of them.
• Her Candle ability manifested at age seven due to a stressful/traumatic experience (in which she had been kidnapped by people who were targeting her parents). It's an accelerated healing rate and the ability to grant the same to others via touch. Because it is due to being a Candle, it doesn't work on undead and will harm them instead (she is presently unaware of this, as she's never tried to do it). She can also push it to work faster than it nomally does, but runs the risk of exhausting herself when she does so.
• Regardless of if she's actively using it or not, her ability is constantly in effect on herself, so for her it's functionally minor regen and it's also seemingly stopped her from aging; she looks seven, but she's eighteen. Her apparent agelessness and being stuck in such a small body is frequently viewed as a Problem, but 1) she's not willing to do anything stupid to deal with that, and 2) she is completely willing to use it to her advantage.
• The same experience that led to her manifestation also resulted in her becoming claustrophobic; under most circumstances, she cannot deal with being in enclosed spaces or anywhere where she feels 'trapped'. She makes no secret of the claustrophobia itself, but does not talk about the kidnapping incident unless there's an absolute need to and it's to someone that she feels she can explicitly trust with it. (At present, Lia's the only one that really knows anything about it.)
• Though she's starting to do it a bit less often than before, she regularly volunteers a portion of her free time at Daybreak's infirmary, and it's been frequently enough that some individuals consider her an actual part of the staff despite her being a student. She's also adopted a mindset where if it's something she's capable of doing, then she should be doing it, but she's started to question that a bit, too.

WHAT I WANT:
Considering how 2020's been, I'm not gonna be super picky, so just go for it? For anything major, though, you're gonna want to bring it up first to be safe.

EXTRA:

I do too, buddy.

SUPER LATE PLOT PLANNING STUFF

[alreadyhuman]

NAME: Ruka
FOCUS CHARACTER: Vivi | FF9 | alreadyhuman
MISSION/PLOT SUMMARY: After ten million years, I finally figure out something that feels way less "HERE FIGURE THIS OUT" /throws something at everybody for stopping Vivi from dying.
The very basic bones of this is that there is a daemon responsible for the original contract that produced the black mages (and is sort of holding the master blueprint for their ticking timer lifespans as it were).
Finding that daemon and convincing them (or otherwise twisting their arm) to rewrite the contract or annul the parts that force the Black Mages into one year lifespans and stop them from passively restocking themselves with energy is the goal, and convincing them that there will be life after Nightfall and that the Black Mages can be part of that life/are living creatures, full stop, will be a big part of that.
Stabilizing Vivi will probably also be a big part of this too, whoops. As his internal 'timer' winds down, he's going to start showing signs of wear and it's going to be not great.
WHAT I WANT: For Vivi's CR to get involved and feel like they had a big hand in saving him! I know I haven't been as remotely active with him as I should have been, but I'm trying to shake that off and really get into it and give people some cool emotional shit they can use. Key parts of this are probably going to be "how do we get there in the first place" and "how do we convince this guy to care about the mages he created and change his mind about the impending apocalypse scenario" but like I'm open for, really, any suggestions.

[buddinghopes]

OKAY I kind of fell off the face of the earth for the last part of the plot, but I am SUPER going to jump on this with Lia because!!! She's!!! Going to fight like hell for her friend!!!!

[improbablenotimpossible]

Sherlock's going to do his damnest to trace the source and help him.

[stavros]

Kokoro is in, Vivi is a good.

[unlogic]

*grabs Triad and drags him in here*

these dumb kids (Desi, GV, Lia, Vivi) have all been a Team™ since last November and that sure as hell ain't stopping now

[shockingblue]

I have already been dragged in here and I'm 100% in.

Gunvolt's been working basically in the background to try to solve the energy depletion problem with whatever knowledge he has, but generally speaking, he's turned up nothing but dead ends. At best, his results offer a very short term band-aid solution that would not solve the problem. Powering devices is one thing, powering sentient constructs with powerful magic is a whole other affair, particularly when they're so... unusual in nature.

He will be down to go in to try to convince and/or "convince" that daemon that Black Mages should continue to live on free of their built in expiration date. Because ride or die for Good Boy Vivi!!

Re: SUPER LATE PLOT PLANNING STUFF

[hawkwardness]

Tobias is RIDE OR DIE for anyone he likes and vivi is definitely one of those so he is in

I have nothing beyond idfk, monologuing at the daemon about vivi being a good boy ;;
