Welcome to Gaia! ::

So like, this roleplay is mine and Fomar's. >.> If anyone ever happens to run into it and wants to join, all power to ya.

^_^ Let's start with character profiles, eh? Just for reference.

Name: Ceris Fyvre
Age: 26
Race: Hume
Class: Dark Knight
Physical Description: [x]
Bio: Ceris was the second person Louie met on the Great Hunt. Her skill and mutated power has proven one of the greatest assets of the party, but her ill-temper, instability, and coldness keeps her at arms' length. She seems unconcerned with Jyesari and Sheena, cruel to Kaiser, and (sometimes) favorable or possessive over Louie. She utterly refuses to talk about her history, insisting that she grew up in hell and never had a childhood.
She has been followed by many Headhunters.
Weapon(s), Armor: Great katana, no armor
Magick known: Fire+*, Ice+*, drain,
Other: Has a strange ability to absorb a seemingly unlimited amount of Myst, resulting in, of course, fits of madness.

Name: Kaiser Tyrean
Age: 19
Race: Hume
Class: Thief
Physical Description: [x]
Bio: Kaiser was the first of the group to meet Louie. Though not quite friends, the two worked together to reach the Phon Coast and the Great Hunt gathering. Throughout their travels, Kaiser served as the comic relief, although he does on occasion prove to be a useful ally. Although often verbally abused and derided, he has remained on fairly friendly terms with everyone in the party. He seems to distrust Ceris, is unconcerned with Jyesari, is friendly with Louie, and seems to have developed an (unexplained) attachment to Sheena (something that has gotten him in trouble with Louie more often than not). Although he's asked and learned about others' pasts, Kaiser is pretty much a closed book; nobody knows where he has come from or what he plans on doing.
Weapon(s), Armor: Daggers, grenades, light leather armor.
Other: N/A

Name: Jyesari ???
Age: [Teens]
Race: Hume
Class: Monk/White Mage
Physical Description: [x]
- A sturdy, big-eyed brunette with a very athletic--albeit immature--body structure. She's round-faced and young, but her eyes speak of intelligence and wisdom. She has a very noble and proud way about her. When in new places or situations, her eyes are wide and observant and her mouth closed.
Bio: Jyesari is a hume girl who grew up with Garif. She claims that the Catoblepas was the murderer of her family. She has struck out on her own recently for an unexplained reason. She was the fourth member of Louie's group, satisfying the number necessary to register. She has followed unquestioningly, offering advice where it has been needed, and actively engaging their enemies. Within the group, she has remained on a neutral ground, although Louie was the first to gain her respect and trust enough for her to reveal her secret.
Weapon(s), Armor: light leather armor; iron knuckles
Other: Owns a little Giza Rabbit named Cta that can translate hand gestures and heal party members. Although intelligent for animals, Cta can only recognize certain key words, and only has a rudimentary grasp of phrases ( "Run" "Away" "Enemy", or "Heal" "Jyesari" ). Cta cannot make words of her own, but makes emotional noises. It has very low HP, but a high MP, although it is limited in the type of magic it can learn.

Name: Caelius Surengard
Age: 27
Race: Hume
Class: Warrior
Physical Description: [x]
Bio: A Headhunter after Ceris.
Weapon(s), Armor:

Story thus far...

Eight years after the reinstatement of Princess Ashe (ending of FFXII), Rozarria and Archadia have signed a temporary peace treaty, but tensions still flare...

Our story begins with Kaiser and Shintoe, two men who are heading to a Hunter's Contest on the Phon Coast. There, they meet Jyesari, a young Garif warrior who won't speak, Ceris, a controlling, bloodthirsty woman, and Sheena, Louie's sister. From there, they traveled to Dalmasca, heading to the sand-sea in search of the Basilisk.
Oddly enough, one night after arriving in Rabanastre, the huge sand storm died down, and the group was given access to the desert. Now, they search for the legendary beast, fighting off wild cockatrice, angry Yensa, and aggravated mobs who were thought to be hibernating. After two days of fruitless exploration, the party was suddenly attack by none other than the Basilisk itself. A difficult fight ensued, but thanks to Kaiser's lovely arsenal and Ceris' insane battle tactics, the party came out the victor.
Soon after, however, something much more powerful appeared. The five were suddenly attacked by a huge creature hidden in a spout of sand. They were knocked unconscious after one hit, and upon awakening found Ceris missing.
On the way back to Rabanastre, bitterness boiled up between the party members. Louie nearly attacked Kaiser, in fact. When they arrived in town, they quickly spread up to cool down in their own way.
Kaiser was followed by Sheena to the Sandsea. There, they made a bet.
Louie was followed (quite literally) by Jyesari to the docks. After a few moments, the pilot took his aggressions out on the garif. In response, Jyesari spoke and took the mask off. As it turned out, Jyesari was not only a girl, but a hume. They spoke for awhile, and decided not to explain this to the others.
Meanwhile, back at the Sandsea, Kaiser upholds the bet--but in a very wormy way. Sheena ends up not paying him back, and gets into conversation with the recently-arriving Ceris. Ceris explains more about the mysterious creature of the desert, but leaves soon after.
The next day, the five gathered in Louie's airship, ready for their short-lived adventure to end. Along the way, Louie decides to go fishing. They end up on an island inhabited by tonberries! After an accident, Louie, Jyesari, and Kaiser end up in a pit. Kaiser escapes, and eventually brings back a rope.
When they return,

(yay started again)
"O Jyesari don't both with him if he slows down we can just leave him behind, and besides I can't complain either, I haven't had the chance to rip apart so many beasts in a long time" Shintoe said in responds to Jyesari, "Can you say that your not enjoying yourself not even a little, look at Ceris she looks like she's having loads of fun." he laughed sarcastically.

"I hope he does get left behind, then I won't have to deal with his s**t anymore" Sheena said glaring at Kaiser as she took a drink of some liquor that she happened to bring along.

With a heavy sigh Shintoe looked to Ceris, "damn woman, you know you could at least show a little self control and patients." he said as he walked over near her. "might i just ask why you always have to go off like that, waisting you energy left and right on useless little acts."

As this was going on Sheena snapped back at Kaiser's comment, "you idiot the only one that could love you is a drunken sewer rat!" and with a suddenly swift hand she stuck Kaiser of the head in an attempt to make him loose is concentration over his loot.

Shintoe just sigh, "Ceris you might be a great sword master," he closed his eyes and then suddenly reveled his hands from under his cloak and grabbed her by the wrist, "but there is no way that you could possibly overpower me in a raw strength contest like this," he pushed her back just enough to bring her sword away from himself, this show of strength not being all to easy but do able considering his massive size compared to her.

Sheena stood there perplexed for a moment as she thought to herself. She turned around to Kaiser and lightly patted him on the cheek, "Maybe your not completely useless after all" she said giving her first positive comment to him.

Shintoe just glared at Jyesari and then gave Ceris a grin as he seemed pleased by this "Well little lady do you think you can hold your own?" he said "I'd like to see what you got" he said starting to lift her up slightly, "well? what have you to say?"

Sheena smiled and laughed "so now what have you to say Kaiser?"
