Channelknight Fadran Posted October 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 31 minutes ago, Matrim's Dice said: "Do you mean a Perpendicularity?" Philico squinted, racking his brain. "Are we even in the Cosmere? Where is this house located?" 29 minutes ago, DramaQueen said: "Somewhere." Queen's response was immediate and dead serious, as if she saw that as a perfectly acceptable answer, which she probably did. "I have Macrosmostic portals set up around the house, including a few to various planets in the Cosmere. In the Cosmere, you require a Perpendicularity because they're the only way into the Cognitive realm, which spans the immense distance between planets very easily. With a Macrosmistic portal, however, we skip the whole Cognitive step and just kind of... appear where it is we want to be." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I and Allegra looked at her, their eyes wide, she shrugged. "You guys know me, of course I'm going!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we're headed there, then." Philico didn't say what he was thinking, though. If you knew where the portals were, why did you ask is anyone knew where the portals were? What a strange bunch. How... exciting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condensation Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 Quote It is rather fun, we're a bit slow right now. Meet Second of the Night, otherwise known as Noche! She won't tell you that, though. She has coarse, matte, and curly black hair with striking eyebrows. Her skin is such a deep brown that it almost looks black, and her irises are the same color except they have flecks of silvery gold. She wears loose, nondescript, and black(long sleeves, pants) clothing with no shoes, and she carries lockpicks secured to her lower arm and wrist. She also has a pack on her back, it has who-knows-what in it. She's generally quiet, but when you challenge her or stand in her way, she can get sassy. Got here by stumbling into the perpendicularity, she wandered around and came out here. She's confused and worried, but I don't think she'll admit it. Noche has one Aviar, a Streamer named Alba that is black streaked with gold and silver accents(they match). This Aviar will follow her anywhere, because they've been together since Noche was 5. Noche is now 10. Had a older brother, but he died at the age of five along with her mother from a shadow attack. She was two, and then the next year her father began to train her as a trapper after giving her Alba, her Aviar. She's come to terms with both, but she often wonders what her life would be like if they were still alive, even going so far as to imagine her brother with her. She... kind of thinks he's still alive. (I know, I know, super cliche and also I stole this from Andante because I couldn't wait to use it). Her father is often off trapping without her, so she's taught Alba a bunch of tricks. She has no formal fighting training, but she's graceful and stealthy. Most of all, she's often worried or confused, but she won't admit it. She'll just try to bluff her way through it. Just one thing to say: I'm sorry for all of this, this won't be an 'every single time' thing. Most of the time, I'll just pick one or three people to post as. I just thought it was interesting to see how everyone responded, and kind of got carried away. Aria has the girl by the wrist and is quite literally dragging her down the stairs. As she gets closer, you can hear her reassuring the girl, who looks like she's glancing back up the stairs for help. Atop her shoulder is a black bird with streaks of silver and gold that matches the girl's eyes. "No, no, it's all right! Really, I promise we're quite friendly. Come on, introduce yourself!" At this last, Aria faces the general group and loudly announces, "Everyone, I just found this girl hiding upstairs! Apparently she's joined the Fellowship, but she didn't want to come join us all." ***(proceeds to write perspectives from all *counting in head* all of my characters)**** Herate looked up, there was apparently another new person here. How many people were there in this group, anyway? She turned back to her Starburst roasting, it had begun to bubble. She didn't even notice when Daolan stood up. ******* Daolan looked up as well, disinterested in the new person. Except... she was from First of the Sun?(Yes, he's Cosmere aware) She appeared to have an Aviar, but she couldn't be old enough yet to be trained as a trapper. He stood up, smiling. "Hello! I'm Daolan, what's your name?" ******* Hiiri was still invisible in the corner, but she slowly faded back into view as she considered the newcomer. She looked shy. Maybe they could be friends? Hiiri decided that she wouldn't make the first move, but if this person was friendly, perhaps they could be friends. ******* Allegra kept her head down. It wasn't a surprise to her anymore when this happened, but it did get a little old. Aria was just the kind of person that found new friends everywhere she went, and Allegra was not. ******* I looked up. Aria had found another person, but she didn't look like she could do much. I massaged her forehead. She was trying not to think of people in their literal value any more, but it still slipped through at times. This girl looked shy, like maybe she could use a friend? I resolved to offer friendship once it was a bit more private. ******* Aria wasn't sure why this girl had been hiding upstairs, but she had looked lonely. Aria hated when she was lonely, so she brought the girl downstairs to make a couple of new friends! ******* Noche tugged on her wrist, which was enclosed in the tight grip of this crazy woman. She had been peacefully listening to the conversation from the hallway leading to the stairs, then the woman had come up the stairs and dragged her down, spouting off some nonsense about making friends. She would have preferred to stay up there listening, she didn't like to socialize. A man stood up and introduced himself as Daolan, then asked for her name. She ceased her struggling for a bit to examine him, then decided he was probably fine. "Second of the Night," she said. *******(and one more from Daolan) Daolan smiled again, though inside he was holding back a torrent of questions. "Nice to meet you, Second of the Night." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
