#character - blink vaniro

[riftdancing]

I sat with my anger long enough...

until it told me its real name was grief.

I'm not a whole person...

and I don't think I ever will be.

Parts of me died in the house I grew up in...

and I visit them in my dreams.

When you aren't fed love on a silver spoon...

you learn to lick it off knives.

-> It's all fun and games until someone gets bit. <-

Blink isn't without her fair share of allies, two of her closest being her first mate, Magnis (highlander) and her navigator, Noeli (viera). Vaniro grew up with both of the lads in question, all three of them being the integral youth of the Harbingers. Truthfully, the pair are basically brothers to her. Probably more so than her brother by blood.

Noeli is absolutely the youngest, leaving Vaniro to ironically be the middle child, and Magnis as the oldest. Magnis has put up with Blink and Noeli's shenanigans almost his entire life... which a large portion of has been spent separating them when they go a little too far with the pranks. Blink has punched Noeli on more than one occasion which often led to them scrapping and play fighting.

Magnis, Noeli, Mizuagi, and Sadler were the only members of the Harbingers to retire along side their captain as they were unwilling to separate from her. Now they are also employed by Firelight Trading Co., aiding Vaniro on various jobs.

Mizuagi and Sadler aren't pictured, but I'll do a full crew pic at some point when I'm not so worn out from posing these three dumb asses.

Choose wisely.

"I'm thinking we put you in something backless, intimidating, make sure people know not to fuck with you," Rex mused, all but confirming her fears as a smug look danced upon his features. “Intimidating to who… exactly?” The dead pan and unamused expression on Vaniro's face twitched along with her sky hued eye at the suggestion of such a feminine outfit.

I don't know who let these two competitive shitheads into the Wolves Den, but man it must suck to be on the losing team when the Mihli and Blink tag team is around.

This is how they bond. Looking after each other while on the battlefield. In some ways they're cut from the same cloth.
