"Um well . . . yes I am in the city but I'm not supposed to leave my house, there were guards and everything . . ." Ari sighed, might as well tell her. "I escaped though! so I can come if you send me your address,"

"Yeah?? No one is letting me leave . . . they're worried I'll return to my people and give them human military secrets or something-- not that I have any of those. Your government is terrified I know of some advantage my people can use against then at least."

"Wha- Parprika I'm on Earth? No one is letting me leave." Just then a very loud group of people passed yelling and laughing and the phone defiantly picked it up

Ari chuckled nervously, turning off onto a side street to hopefully eliminate some of the road sounds. "Ooookay what is it?"

"Just fine . . . I mean uh . . . I'm just staying at my house that's all." She was praying the sounds of cars on the street wouldn't reach the phone.

She fumbled a bit with her data-thingie, but finally picked up the call. " . . . Hello? Paprika?"

Amaranthine had been put under house arrest. No one was calling it that but . . . that's what it was. The UN's general confusion as of what to do with her was apparent, and it seemed their final decision was not to make a final decision, instead pushing her into a corner where she'd be out of the way. Luckily, Ari had escaped. Currently she was wandering down one of the city's many busy streets, wondering what on earth she was going to do. She had her ears tucked up and to a hat and wore a long skirt to cover her tail, so no one paid her any mind. Ari's favorite sword was tucked safely inside her coat. The elvish High Priest had contacted her with the Goddesses final decision on their part in the culling war. The plan was to imply they were going to fight, but that they were stalling an official proclamation saying so because they needed to regroup their forces, which had been scattered out on diplomatic trips. It wouldn't last long but it would give them precious time needed to try and gain allies and form a proper rebellion. The elves were good fighters, but had an extremely small population compared to some species. Ari wanted to call Paprika, but her new friend was a member of the government and might turn her in. The nice human would have good intentions of course but it would be a pain to have to escape again. Escaping the planet was hardly an option, security was far too tight, she'd be caught. What to do?

Mistborn Secret History:

"Hopefully,"

thanks for the advice! I've never built a character with this site lol

Yep! were you able to access my character sheet?

I put it in a spoiler on the same post as my character sheet, but yeah, it should also be on my character sheet in the notes section.

I fixed it, thanks, hopefully it works now

okaaaaaaay, here is my character sheet, hopefully I did everything correctly: https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/104662238 (I hope the link works) Backstory:

"So am I," Ari said. "Its odd, I should have gotten a reply from the other elves by now . . . though this is a hard decision perhaps they are simply taking their time." She glanced at the guards again, seriously considering trying to escape, even though that would probably force them to assume she was a threat. @Channelknight Fadran

Sure! I guess I could make an SU about it

I completely forgot about Kelsier not having a physical body, thus not actually getting hurt. Thanks for the feedback everyone!

So recently I read Misborn Secret History, and the scene with Hoid and Kelsier at the Well of Ascension confused me. I had read on the Coppermind and here on the Shard that Hoid can't hurt people (due to some kind of "curse" thing?) so it surprised me when he fighting Kelsier. Does it not count because he did not draw blood? (I recall it was only a few punches) Does the fact that he was in the cognitive realm change what he can and can't do? Is this before the "no hurting people rule" came into affect timeline wise?

This looks interesting! I'm not sure if I can join because I'm going to be fairly busy in the near future but I might try to slide in, we'll see.

"Alright . . . I guess," Ari mumbled. She glanced at the guards in her office doorway, they had started having a whisper argument, probably about her. "But who could be pulling strings? a Dragon? if there is still a Dragon here on Earth I want to fight it."

Ari felt herself sigh inwardly, surely there was a better option. "Wait . . . Paprika? what am I supposed to do? If the humans are joining the war against everyone . . ."
