“Batteries. That light is blinking.”

“The light- YES. YES! Hello, hello Multiverse, can you hear me? This is Stubert of the Ixalan surface, I have been trapped in- trapped in?”

“Duskmourn.”

“Trapped in Duskmourn for… two months and nine days, I landed on my communicator and smashed it when I got here, but I found other survivors and I’m, I’m here! We got it working! Fuck, someone please tell me it’s working. Can anyone hear me?”

And why the rest of the players, abandoned the arena suddendly?

A new home, old fears.

The orc clean off his sweats, as he rest from helping with the boxes of professor Hofri Ghostforge. Filled with marble, cinsels and hammers for his art.

Rohia Wakaroo alongside his group, arrived at Strixhaven, life for two month. All of thems, showed the proper authorities, that they had magical talents. As first years schoolar, they had to pick up general classes, before taking one of the five specializtions.

Rohia have been making small tasks for various Loerhold professors, and helping thier students. He hoped, that it would incline thems to make him an likely candidate, as student.

He enjoyed this plane. There wasn`t any war, violence, the fear from either the Legion of Dusk or the Sun Empire to invade your home. Well, untill the news of an student dead arrived.

Rohia breathed, as he grabbed the box`s frame.. They were safe. Combustia have an huge magical power, his fellow scholars from the Coalition: Duarte and Matilde, are accustomed to wacth each other back.

They were safe. They weren`t in danger.

Whoever hears this signal, I know you’re out there.

You’d best know of me. I don’t know who I am, wandering Lorwyn. This isn’t even spoken into a communicator, I’m just talking aloud, to myself, as night is about to fall. Merrow and Kithkin trade talks here, and I’m sat atop the roof of the well. I found myself a new sense of self, one of the boggarts. They told me of sounds and senses, and in the movement of the sun, I lost all trace of myself to their identity.

But Auntie is missing. Shot down by elves, the horned scum strike down upon everyone, I refuse to allow the instability of my form to make me look like one of them. My skin keeps peeling like wallpaper and reforming, I think I have organs now. Something writhes within me.

I may become a Kithkin. Maybe that is what my form desires me to be, one of those imposters who assimilates out of fear that I will be found alone, with no fuel to spark my fire again when it is extinguished. Is this mortality? To lose one’s bounds and bonds in a swoop? Was I even one to lose, I had only known this family for three days. But they’re the one I’ve known, somehow I lack such fundamentals of my own past I believe it to not exist. Maybe I woke upon Lorwyn as it was always my home. And a changeling never remembers.

Dully noted. The skysails sailors who appear in the Stormwreck's seas, have become good friends of the Brazen Coalition.

Tin rested his fists by their side, an tireds eyes behind the glasses. " So I must avoid an political opponent of yours, to not gather the ire of the naturalist folks. And the clan, who wants people like me on chains and tortured" Tin stroke his beard, while Thanda the Kimura's suitors with disgust. Tin clapped his hand. "Well then, my business with you are done today, Koda Hayashi. And thank you, you saving me from my parents reproach. Good luck keeping your cold" Tin sees another imperial suitor walking to them, with an vandal's face. "You will need it." Tin parted away, to ask around for the whereabouts of the Paws Clan. Thanda, just nodded to the host, as he followed his lord, to keep him safe from thiefs or troublemakers.

Koda Hayashi's First Suitor Party

6 AM, Two Hours Before The Party...

The staff was in place for the event. Old Lady Hanako and her waitrons were working the event in Arán Park, with the shop closed down for the day. Itachi’s Noodle Bar was the VIP area, with Itachi and his kami employees handling anyone who might be a danger or allergen risk for other suitors. Oak-Paw’s studio was open for both tailoring duties and as a changing room.

In the park, everything was set up. Security personnel – members of the Grim Fleet, the Hyozan Reckoners, the Okiba Reckoners, and the Dokuchi Reckoners (some of whom were disguised as staff for the event) – were in place. The food tables, including four of cheese alone, were set up near the entrance of the park, while the performing stage was set up in the relatively flat area. A relaxation area was set up near the waterfalls and hidden by a curtain for anyone who needed to get away from the hustle and bustle.

Koda’s personal security detail was also present, dressed as formally as they wanted to be. Most notably for the suitors that would arrive later, Satoru Umezawa of the Hyozan Reckoners and Greasefang of the Okiba Reckoners were positioned at the entrance. They had dressed similarly, entirely on accident – button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up, armored pants, and a vest. Greasefang’s vest was armored, and her overall color palette leaned more into whites, yellows, and light purples, while Satoru’s vest was tight (on purpose, knowing him) and his colors stuck pretty closely to dark blues, dark purples, and black. Both had also picked out “I’m Here To Work” buttons, with Satoru wearing a purple one and Greasefang wearing a yellow one.

Lily of Thyrsus, likewise, was helping out as something akin to Koda’s honor guard alongside Leta and Biilziebub. She was dressed just as simply for the base, with a long, unpatterned blue dress and a formal black vest over it, but she also finished off the look with a dark green cloak for the drama of it all. She was wearing both an “I’m Here To Work” button in purple and an “I Am Koda Hayashi” button in green.

Koda himself was wearing his new Reckoner armor, made of deer leather and steel plating dyed a nearly-black purple. There was a serpentine motif detailed across all of it, mirroring the snakes and clouds of Koda’s Dokuchi Reckoner tattoos, and is was missing the left sleeve to keep his tattoos apparent. There were only a handful of places where the serpentine motif did not appear: across the metal and across parts used by other designs. One such place was the leather across Koda’s upper chest. There were two intertwined flowers over his heart. One was the Vazante rose, all of its petals and leaves and thorns accounted for, to honor his dads Arturo and Lazaro. The other was an iris with the kanji for his surname on the primary visual petal, to honor his mother Ayame. On the other side of his chest were two rats, a snake with four arms, and a mountain with three eyes, honoring Lethaltooth, Silentsign, Shigeki, and Shimatsu. To top it all off, he had a purple “I’m Just Hoping For A Fight” button affixed to his armor.

7 AM, One Hour Before The Party...

Koda and Lily’s old adventuring party from Odithis arrived to help out. There were five of them, just as strange as the two had described.

The first one of note was the undead woman who didn’t look that undead. She was as pale as death, and the elaborate gothic dress she wore helped to sell it. Her long black hair was pulled back into a braid with a few strands left out to frame her face. Her eyes were such a dark brown that they were nearly black. She had finished her outfit with a purple “I’m Just Here To Steal From Rich People” button. This was Tabitha O’mally, the adventuring party’s necromancer and lich, according to Koda and Lily.

On her arm and much taller than her was a half-dragon half-human woman with red scales and deep tan skin. Her hair was just as vibrant a red as her scales, and she had clearly put in effort to at least brush it. Her eyes, also red and with cat-like pupils, seemed to glow on their own. She looked like she could rip open metal with her bare hands. She was wearing a full suit of silvered plate armor with golden detailing, looking like the knight to her wife’s princess fit. It had taken her a moment to get the red “I’m Just Hoping For A Fight” button secured to the armor, but it was now displayed proudly. This was Beatrice O’mally, the party’s barbarian and frontliner, as well as being Tabitha’s wife.

Compared to Beatrice, the rest of the party seemed to disappear into the background, especially Gideon Valkea. Half-human, quarter-demon, quarter-frost giant, but he looked like an average guy – tan skin, black hair, black eyes, average in height and build both – except for the horrific scarring around his eyes and his perpetual scowl. He was wearing a uniform of some sort, which was black, dark grey, and dark red. He had capped off his outfit with a green “I’m Just Hoping For A Fight” button. He didn’t look like what someone would assume a demon hunter should look like, and he didn’t take an issue with the presence of demons at the suitor party.

His cousin, Lohiarm Valkea, was practically neon white in comparison. Lohiarm was half-dragon in place of half-human, and his skin, scales, and hair were all such a stark white that one would think he had albinism. He had one green eye and one blue eye in the form of total heterochromia, which – based on the fact that he had Benoe practically glued to his hip – was probably the only hetero thing about him. He also wore a uniform similar to Gideon’s, though his was white and ice blue. He had picked out an orange “I’m Just Here For The Cheese” button to cap it all off. He was the party’s sorcerer and rogue.

And finally, Benoe the ranger, who by all accounts didn’t have a surname. He was just a normal guy. A handsome guy in his late 20s, but a normal human dude. Even his chosen clothing for this event – leather armor with a dark green cloak – seemed extremely easy to overlook compared to the rest of the party. He never drifted too far from Lohiarm and had picked a green “I’m Just Here For The Cheese” button, because he had his priorities in order.

Koda and Lily hugged each of them and greeted them as old friends, and introduced them to everyone else. Despite the strangeness of the adventuring party, they were easy enough to get along with.

8 AM, Start Of The Party...

The suitors had arrived, and it was go time. Koda took up an initial position at the center of the park to deal with the first wave of suitors, but luckily there would be a lot more moving around as the day went on.

He just needed to survive the first few hours when the most formal ones would give their offers first. Which meant he had to survive a bunch of Imperial nobles and their brats.

It was going to be a long day.

[brazencoalitiondesk]

As Tin stretched his hand once again, he handed to Koda`s an card. "My family card and contacts. Once we depart from this party." Thanda have allowed himself to relax, his shoulder dropping down.

"Well. Glad that I felt on your good grace, unlike that guy throwed to the pot" Tin observe the rest of the suitors, the most likely to belong to noble houses or of Kamigawa. "It`s there, any house of Kamigawa, that you are allienated against? Or, knowing your story, have any shaddy businesses? I would like to avoid those persons during my stay on the rest of the party"

"Bringing... the schematic of powering the machins of Kamigawa, alongside expanding the aviskhari tranposrts companis, to Towashi" Tin thinks about the offert. "That... That does sound like an good idea. I mean, I doubt that my uncle would bring an train and build railways acroos Towashi. But the idea is there. We, the aviskhari, have found ways to exploit the etenal storm of Thunder Juction." Thanda smiles warmly, as he witness his master furious drabbling.

"Yeah. Yeah, you have yourself an good business partner." As he extend his hand, the dwarf notice Than discomfort. "Without, your private operatives services. And I hope that none of your dokuchi operation, pose any danger to my homplane. Jeje, you know. I am a aviskhari, before an greedy capitalist."

As for the kids. They meet the massive frame of Medrano, an balded man, whose face was tattoed as a skull. With an dissonant calm smile, alongside apologetic eyes.

"Dont worry, dont worry, kids. We know what happened. We know who your guardians was. Dont worry, you two are safe." He crounch. Once he observed, these youngster could been among thier 18 or 20. "Don`t worry. I swear to you two" The twins hug him, desperate for meeting another kind face. "Your parents will be safe. I swear it. They will be safe"

Her long black hair was pulled back into a braid with a few strands left out to frame her face. Her eyes were such a dark brown that they were nearly black. She had finished her outfit with a purple “I’m Just Here To Steal From Rich People” button. This was Tabitha O’mally, the adventuring party’s necromancer and lich, according to Koda and Lily.

On her arm and much taller than her was a half-dragon half-human woman with red scales and deep tan skin. Her hair was just as vibrant a red as her scales, and she had clearly put in effort to at least brush it. Her eyes, also red and with cat-like pupils, seemed to glow on their own. She looked like she could rip open metal with her bare hands. She was wearing a full suit of silvered plate armor with golden detailing, looking like the knight to her wife’s princess fit. It had taken her a moment to get the red “I’m Just Hoping For A Fight” button secured to the armor, but it was now displayed proudly. This was Beatrice O’mally, the party’s barbarian and frontliner, as well as being Tabitha’s wife.

Compared to Beatrice, the rest of the party seemed to disappear into the background, especially Gideon Valkea. Half-human, quarter-demon, quarter-frost giant, but he looked like an average guy – tan skin, black hair, black eyes, average in height and build both – except for the horrific scarring around his eyes and his perpetual scowl. He was wearing a uniform of some sort, which was black, dark grey, and dark red. He had capped off his outfit with a green “I’m Just Hoping For A Fight” button. He didn’t look like what someone would assume a demon hunter should look like, and he didn’t take an issue with the presence of demons at the suitor party.

His cousin, Lohiarm Valkea, was practically neon white in comparison. Lohiarm was half-dragon in place of half-human, and his skin, scales, and hair were all such a stark white that one would think he had albinism. He had one green eye and one blue eye in the form of total heterochromia, which – based on the fact that he had Benoe practically glued to his hip – was probably the only hetero thing about him. He also wore a uniform similar to Gideon’s, though his was white and ice blue. He had picked out an orange “I’m Just Here For The Cheese” button to cap it all off. He was the party’s sorcerer and rogue.

And finally, Benoe the ranger, who by all accounts didn’t have a surname. He was just a normal guy. A handsome guy in his late 20s, but a normal human dude. Even his chosen clothing for this event – leather armor with a dark green cloak – seemed extremely easy to overlook compared to the rest of the party. He never drifted too far from Lohiarm and had picked a green “I’m Just Here For The Cheese” button, because he had his priorities in order.

Koda and Lily hugged each of them and greeted them as old friends, and introduced them to everyone else. Despite the strangeness of the adventuring party, they were easy enough to get along with.

8 AM, Start Of The Party...

The suitors had arrived, and it was go time. Koda took up an initial position at the center of the park to deal with the first wave of suitors, but luckily there would be a lot more moving around as the day went on.

He just needed to survive the first few hours when the most formal ones would give their offers first. Which meant he had to survive a bunch of Imperial nobles and their brats.

It was going to be a long day.

Tin sighed, as he stomped the ground, clearly nervous. "I suppose, that I would like to know. If you are interested in financing any of our project, given your new wealth. Three of my uncles, are interested in expanding the railyway system of Thunder Juction. Wich would mean, an fast travel of the omenpaths of Kamigawa, found on the plane." Trains were the first thing that came to mind, cause that were the vehicle that they used.

"Maybe, helping you to occupy an place in your new staturs as noble? I heard that the rest of the clans, are quite merciless and ruthless in account of commerce. I think, that my parents were more interested, in the good reputation that you would have brought to the clan, if we married at least. I can see the titulars of the papars. "THE CLAN SURYA, WELCOME KODA HAYASHI FROM THE SLUMPS. THEN CRIMINAL OF THEIR PLANE, NOW PROUD PROMOTOR OF THE ASSEMBLY IN KAMIGAWA"." Tin sighed. "Sorry. But you know politic. Now even the son`s of the mangantes, can rest from this game an strategies." Than gave an sympathethic look at Tin, then turned to Koda.

"Well then. What are the main exportation of the clan Hayashi? I can`t guest, that you will sell the blades of your gang, as petty mercenaries" He says the last words, with a hint of scorn. Tin kicked him with the shoulder. "Than, be respectfull. We are on his home."

"Sorry, my lord. But this Hayashi, did self-regconized as the head of an criminal gang" Than watched coldly at Koda. That look, was akin to many reckoners with their students. Seeking for any danger, that could harm their responsability.

Koda Hayashi's First Suitor Party

6 AM, Two Hours Before The Party...

The staff was in place for the event. Old Lady Hanako and her waitrons were working the event in Arán Park, with the shop closed down for the day. Itachi’s Noodle Bar was the VIP area, with Itachi and his kami employees handling anyone who might be a danger or allergen risk for other suitors. Oak-Paw’s studio was open for both tailoring duties and as a changing room.

In the park, everything was set up. Security personnel – members of the Grim Fleet, the Hyozan Reckoners, the Okiba Reckoners, and the Dokuchi Reckoners (some of whom were disguised as staff for the event) – were in place. The food tables, including four of cheese alone, were set up near the entrance of the park, while the performing stage was set up in the relatively flat area. A relaxation area was set up near the waterfalls and hidden by a curtain for anyone who needed to get away from the hustle and bustle.

Koda’s personal security detail was also present, dressed as formally as they wanted to be. Most notably for the suitors that would arrive later, Satoru Umezawa of the Hyozan Reckoners and Greasefang of the Okiba Reckoners were positioned at the entrance. They had dressed similarly, entirely on accident – button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up, armored pants, and a vest. Greasefang’s vest was armored, and her overall color palette leaned more into whites, yellows, and light purples, while Satoru’s vest was tight (on purpose, knowing him) and his colors stuck pretty closely to dark blues, dark purples, and black. Both had also picked out “I’m Here To Work” buttons, with Satoru wearing a purple one and Greasefang wearing a yellow one.

Lily of Thyrsus, likewise, was helping out as something akin to Koda’s honor guard alongside Leta and Biilziebub. She was dressed just as simply for the base, with a long, unpatterned blue dress and a formal black vest over it, but she also finished off the look with a dark green cloak for the drama of it all. She was wearing both an “I’m Here To Work” button in purple and an “I Am Koda Hayashi” button in green.

Koda himself was wearing his new Reckoner armor, made of deer leather and steel plating dyed a nearly-black purple. There was a serpentine motif detailed across all of it, mirroring the snakes and clouds of Koda’s Dokuchi Reckoner tattoos, and is was missing the left sleeve to keep his tattoos apparent. There were only a handful of places where the serpentine motif did not appear: across the metal and across parts used by other designs. One such place was the leather across Koda’s upper chest. There were two intertwined flowers over his heart. One was the Vazante rose, all of its petals and leaves and thorns accounted for, to honor his dads Arturo and Lazaro. The other was an iris with the kanji for his surname on the primary visual petal, to honor his mother Ayame. On the other side of his chest were two rats, a snake with four arms, and a mountain with three eyes, honoring Lethaltooth, Silentsign, Shigeki, and Shimatsu. To top it all off, he had a purple “I’m Just Hoping For A Fight” button affixed to his armor.

The lord became stiff. As he held, the false mold of thems.

The boy shut his mouth, as Laurette. Re-analyzed the situation. They need to hide, from the sight of Garot. As they became tangibles, they got lost among the masses of suitors and thier entourage. Hoping, for a new chance of life, for thier parents. Praying, for their salvation.

Tin laughed. "I checked the full list on the pamplhet, thank you very much. My parents doens`t know, that they choose an boss of an criminal gang, as my possible husband." Thanda turned suprised, almost to scream, untill he noticed the bodyguards of Satoru and Gresafang. He breathed deeply.

"My lord. You knew of this. Why you didnt warn your parents, or at least me?" He crounched, his trunck whispering to Tin`s ears.

"Cause they would panic, and I wouldn`t have the chance to explore Towashi. And thus far, is an beutifull city. Beside, I promised to Ratlington, to assist to the party. "He turned to the cheese table, as Ratlington had an vehement conversation with Azzie.

"Being honest. I am not that interest in the chance of marriage, or even of an date. No offense, Koda Hayashi." The dwarf, rubbed his small beard. He could be between his twenty to twenty-four.

The twins look at each other. Looking like geist. They, they died?

The two twins, from superstitious, and fearfull folks of Innistrad. How would they react at this strange event. In wich apparently they died?

Screams of course!! An horrible screams, as the false Lord`s escaped from his false topour. The twins mouth were shut, as their voices screameds. Something unnatural is happening. He tapped on the girl shoulder, faking an smile.

"My dear Lauretet. Did you say something?" As Vasro seeked, he found the tethers. An tie over his heart. Once broken, the other end of the tie, will know. It would break, if the body of the lord, was burned or turned into dust.

He was wearing a uniform of some sort, which was black, dark grey, and dark red. He had capped off his outfit with a green “I’m Just Hoping For A Fight” button. He didn’t look like what someone would assume a demon hunter should look like, and he didn’t take an issue with the presence of demons at the suitor party.

His cousin, Lohiarm Valkea, was practically neon white in comparison. Lohiarm was half-dragon in place of half-human, and his skin, scales, and hair were all such a stark white that one would think he had albinism. He had one green eye and one blue eye in the form of total heterochromia, which – based on the fact that he had Benoe practically glued to his hip – was probably the only hetero thing about him. He also wore a uniform similar to Gideon’s, though his was white and ice blue. He had picked out an orange “I’m Just Here For The Cheese” button to cap it all off. He was the party’s sorcerer and rogue.

And finally, Benoe the ranger, who by all accounts didn’t have a surname. He was just a normal guy. A handsome guy in his late 20s, but a normal human dude. Even his chosen clothing for this event – leather armor with a dark green cloak – seemed extremely easy to overlook compared to the rest of the party. He never drifted too far from Lohiarm and had picked a green “I’m Just Here For The Cheese” button, because he had his priorities in order.

Koda and Lily hugged each of them and greeted them as old friends, and introduced them to everyone else. Despite the strangeness of the adventuring party, they were easy enough to get along with.

8 AM, Start Of The Party...

The suitors had arrived, and it was go time. Koda took up an initial position at the center of the park to deal with the first wave of suitors, but luckily there would be a lot more moving around as the day went on.

He just needed to survive the first few hours when the most formal ones would give their offers first. Which meant he had to survive a bunch of Imperial nobles and their brats.

It was going to be a long day.

Lauron tentatively, tried to observe the source of the voice, only for ther sister, to pull him back to focus. The Lord was literally breathing over their shoulder. They can`t follow the voices of strangers.

Even tought. They can`t stop their trains of toughts.

They were on Nephalia, in the middle of the night. The Stromkirk came without invivation/invaded the room. They took mother and father. They refused to share their location/The mocked thems, that they would be feeded to the birth/ That they would burn on the tesla of the skaberens. If they didn`t obey thems. If Garot dissapears, dies, or perish, they Stromkirk will execute their fathers

Koda Hayashi's First Suitor Party

6 AM, Two Hours Before The Party...

The staff was in place for the event. Old Lady Hanako and her waitrons were working the event in Arán Park, with the shop closed down for the day. Itachi’s Noodle Bar was the VIP area, with Itachi and his kami employees handling anyone who might be a danger or allergen risk for other suitors. Oak-Paw’s studio was open for both tailoring duties and as a changing room.

In the park, everything was set up. Security personnel – members of the Grim Fleet, the Hyozan Reckoners, the Okiba Reckoners, and the Dokuchi Reckoners (some of whom were disguised as staff for the event) – were in place. The food tables, including four of cheese alone, were set up near the entrance of the park, while the performing stage was set up in the relatively flat area. A relaxation area was set up near the waterfalls and hidden by a curtain for anyone who needed to get away from the hustle and bustle.

Koda’s personal security detail was also present, dressed as formally as they wanted to be. Most notably for the suitors that would arrive later, Satoru Umezawa of the Hyozan Reckoners and Greasefang of the Okiba Reckoners were positioned at the entrance. They had dressed similarly, entirely on accident – button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up, armored pants, and a vest. Greasefang’s vest was armored, and her overall color palette leaned more into whites, yellows, and light purples, while Satoru’s vest was tight (on purpose, knowing him) and his colors stuck pretty closely to dark blues, dark purples, and black. Both had also picked out “I’m Here To Work” buttons, with Satoru wearing a purple one and Greasefang wearing a yellow one.

Lily of Thyrsus, likewise, was helping out as something akin to Koda’s honor guard alongside Leta and Biilziebub. She was dressed just as simply for the base, with a long, unpatterned blue dress and a formal black vest over it, but she also finished off the look with a dark green cloak for the drama of it all. She was wearing both an “I’m Here To Work” button in purple and an “I Am Koda Hayashi” button in green.

Koda himself was wearing his new Reckoner armor, made of deer leather and steel plating dyed a nearly-black purple. There was a serpentine motif detailed across all of it, mirroring the snakes and clouds of Koda’s Dokuchi Reckoner tattoos, and is was missing the left sleeve to keep his tattoos apparent. There were only a handful of places where the serpentine motif did not appear: across the metal and across parts used by other designs. One such place was the leather across Koda’s upper chest. There were two intertwined flowers over his heart. One was the Vazante rose, all of its petals and leaves and thorns accounted for, to honor his dads Arturo and Lazaro. The other was an iris with the kanji for his surname on the primary visual petal, to honor his mother Ayame. On the other side of his chest were two rats, a snake with four arms, and a mountain with three eyes, honoring Lethaltooth, Silentsign, Shigeki, and Shimatsu. To top it all off, he had a purple “I’m Just Hoping For A Fight” button affixed to his armor.

7 AM, One Hour Before The Party...

Koda and Lily’s old adventuring party from Odithis arrived to help out. There were five of them, just as strange as the two had described.

The first one of note was the undead woman who didn’t look that undead. She was as pale as death, and the elaborate gothic dress she wore helped to sell it. Her long black hair was pulled back into a braid with a few strands left out to frame her face. Her eyes were such a dark brown that they were nearly black. She had finished her outfit with a purple “I’m Just Here To Steal From Rich People” button. This was Tabitha O’mally, the adventuring party’s necromancer and lich, according to Koda and Lily.

On her arm and much taller than her was a half-dragon half-human woman with red scales and deep tan skin. Her hair was just as vibrant a red as her scales, and she had clearly put in effort to at least brush it. Her eyes, also red and with cat-like pupils, seemed to glow on their own. She looked like she could rip open metal with her bare hands. She was wearing a full suit of silvered plate armor with golden detailing, looking like the knight to her wife’s princess fit. It had taken her a moment to get the red “I’m Just Hoping For A Fight” button secured to the armor, but it was now displayed proudly. This was Beatrice O’mally, the party’s barbarian and frontliner, as well as being Tabitha’s wife.

Compared to Beatrice, the rest of the party seemed to disappear into the background, especially Gideon Valkea. Half-human, quarter-demon, quarter-frost giant, but he looked like an average guy – tan skin, black hair, black eyes, average in height and build both – except for the horrific scarring around his eyes and his perpetual scowl. He was wearing a uniform of some sort, which was black, dark grey, and dark red. He had capped off his outfit with a green “I’m Just Hoping For A Fight” button. He didn’t look like what someone would assume a demon hunter should look like, and he didn’t take an issue with the presence of demons at the suitor party.

Lohiarm was half-dragon in place of half-human, and his skin, scales, and hair were all such a stark white that one would think he had albinism. He had one green eye and one blue eye in the form of total heterochromia, which – based on the fact that he had Benoe practically glued to his hip – was probably the only hetero thing about him.
