Guardian of Fire

I can feel the demon is gone. I can feel my power and control of my body returning to me. I also begin to see what the demon had done. I try to stand up and immediately see two Guardians beside me. I'm assuming the one in blue is the new incarnation of the Guardian of Water and the other a half-naked goat man which I assume to be the Guardian of Fauna.

I immediately get up and greet myself to the Guardian of Fauna. "Greetings Fauna. I've long since forgotten your name but I'm sure I'll remember eventually.. I'm Pyro. Thank you for your assistance with my un-welcomed company."

I also begin to help up the Guardian of Water thus warming him up. "I hope you're OK. I know removing demons is a hard task but to remove one from a Fire Guardian for you would be doubly so. I hope your power returns soon cause I bet we'll need it to defend ourselves in the upcoming days also if I may ask. What is your name now? I'm afraid I was only familiar with the previous you."

((Is no one paying attention to Shane? ;_; Guys, Death is with Hope, Light, Corruption, Life and Aether. Both Fiesta and I have acknowledged/spoken to him recently in the RP ))

@Trap_Wolf @ansoro2112
((BABYG PLEASE. I SPENT FOUR HOURS TRYING TO CORRECTLY MAP EVERYONE OUT and I hate posting only single line OOC posts or too much information in a post at once so I am taking my babygurl time to optimize for the best of other babygurls. GATHERIN' MY THOUGHTS. Also like his post was wayyyy there longer before I actually got the map made but otherwise it's ok you've brought more attention to this.))

((@Catcocomics This isn't an RPG or D&D or however you are looking at it exactly I mean I honestly don't know how to respond to your specifics but seriously the overwhelming amount of information and you're reacting like we're supposed to be in constant sync with this data on your character at all times. Roleplay, while we have a responsibility to be attentive to OOC, does not necessarily mean we focus on Players more or so we focus on Characters. In the end, our Characters are more real than we are. Information is more retained and overall makes better story contingency in IC. Just because you spew out a long harangue of information in an OOC does not guarantee us retaining it because it is not relevant to whatever current situation nor meaning it will make sense within the Roleplay Universe.))

((But you can not disagree with me that your abilities are seriously altering the story more than just simple character to character interaction. I'm trying to go around this carefully though because I can justify it in my head because your Character has entered the planet basically "fully developed." I still can not wholey agree that your Character has so far continued, even by what you say in your OOC, that your Character has had answers and will continue to have answers & solutions. Maybe I was too harsh in saying there are only three optimal ways to amend this but otherwise as Jiv))

((Let's go into a specific, you're creating answers to solutions as they go. For instance: the healing snow and the Nether Guardian's Magical Taint. We start with you releasing the snow [x] on page 18 and then you change the snow to heal on page 25 [x] which I don't know why no one really didn't say anything. Maybe we all felt lenient or maybe we thought you meant the snow that was near you not all the snow in the world but otherwise it was acceptable. Then you've stated that this could also apply to healing the Nether Guardian. [x] There is it where you've created an answer to an issue. Including how you state within the OOC that your magic is "just different" [x] so it can heal whatever magic it wants anyway. You're not understanding what I'm saying if you're just saying "well there are these flaws" when those flaws don't matter since they've fixed whatever problem there is anyway. Even with the Magical Taint being @Kylieanna's creation your character has somehow generated the answer ages before it was a problem.))

((You've already defined yourself as Phoenix who is more powerful or more rare than other Phoenixes, "as Catcocomics is the only phoenix known in the entire galaxy to posses this ability," and within the post you've included a fire that is not extinguishable. Besides that the entire point of what I'm trying to get across is that your Character has, and continues, to have unlimited powers and abilities. Powers and abilities in which you only try to justify within OOC [[meaning that they rely mostly on the power of stars to use their magic]]* and not within the story. It does not allow contingency. No one cares if you're abilities will get "weaker later" or that you try to explain how they're bad within OOC because they're affecting present time Roleplay. It doesn't matter if your weaknesses are stated in the OOC because they're not being stated/affecting the IC.))

((*So why hasn't he already started being weaker? Where OTHER THAN IN OOC has your character displayed weakness or moments where he doesn't have an answer/solution. What matters in your posts is what you post for the story because that has actual impact on the Roleplay plot. Not all of OOC.))



The Guardian of Hope

Hope struggled to answer because he already thought it must have been obvious. It crossed his mind that Cyra would be willing to also trust him with hers if he reciprocated her question. Before he could answer, another group containing the short, haired girl and the bouncy boy he met before. Their issue seemed to be needing to take the heterochromia eye girl to the Guardian of Magic back at the crater. She was sick with her magic being greatly affected by a negative force. The man Death appeared looking concerned for the Guardian of Nether as everyone else was.

The boyish man watched an unknown winged man who quickly introduced himself as Airis. While Light was struggling Hope mind came across an answer, "Why doesn't Airis just fly her there? He'd be much quicker on his wings." Hope felt that he could trust the angelic looking Airis.

((@Claire1018 @Toiletprincess @ansoro2112 @Shanebat1 @Kylieanna @CaffeinatedKitty))



((also @std1997 Fauna doesn't actually look like a Fawn but as a gruffy large man. Don't worry, it'd be easy to assume that ooglie wants too look like something with hooves tho))

((So much for trying to slowly reveal my character as we go along.
Catcocomics the frost phoenix: abilities and limitations/weaknesses [[Spoiler to keep this list from taking up the rest of the page]]:

Abilities, Passive:
-Good reflexes [effective when going less than 20 meters per second]
-Does not require atmosphere to survive [Though being crushed by anything = instant incapacitation]
-If body is destroyed, will rematerialize in a near-by location, likely incapacitated or damaged.
-Aging seems to not affect phoenix kind.
-Specially designed spell keeps his powers from being used for ill intent. If triggered, this spell will incapacitate Catcocomics.
-A magic crystal, known as a charm of the frost phoenix [in this case], will revive one character who is incapacitated, prevent incapacitation [sort of like a bottled fairy from the legend of Zelda] or revive someone has been dead for less than an hour, at the cost of it's stored charge. This item takes a day to recharge either anit-incapacitation abilities, a week is use

Weaknesses
-Immune to unnatural death [This can easily cause for side-effects caused by intense pain from otherwise lethal objects.]
-Little/no defense vs magic fire or bludgeoning attacks.
-Toxic/poisonous substances may incapacitate this character
-Can be possessed more easily than other creatures, despite average intelligence.
-Is unfamiliar with magic shield spells.
-1000 year life-span, this is caused by residual life force of the star that died in his creation, it will only run out when Catcocomics becomes 1000 years old.

Abilities, Active:
-Ethereal wings that reflect the phoenix's magic path, personality, and creativity.
-Can fly several times faster than the speed of light. However, doing so negates reflexes, and may cause unexpected collisions.
-Phoenix rune scriber; able to scribe special spells using phoenix runes, though more complex spells have higher chances of failure or malfunction.
-Frost fire; able to create a fire than glows a bright blue and burns cold, though use of this ability requires 'star charge', and can only be used for long amounts of time when in close proximity to a star [close enough to see the star as more than a speck of light].
-Frost Form; ability to forge items purely out of ice, though only mechanical [non electrical/pyro kinetic] items can be created [such as frying pans, golf clubs, or even sword blades.]
-Good at sword play, speed-skating, and philosophy

Limitations:
-Phoenixes are not able to create something from nothing; Catcocomics may be able to create a giant anvil out of ice, but he has to store sufficient water in his phoenix aura [phoenix equivilant to blood] in order to do so.
-A strong punch to the head [does not have to be super human by any means] can knock him out instantly.
-Despite being familiar with sword play, Catcocomics' abilities are more puzzled oriented, meaning that he is resourceful with his abilities, though not the best fighter for his abilities.
-When trying to do anything to heal maladies caused by incompatible magic, he has to know what the cause of the malady is in order to know how to cure it, and sometimes simply can't [[I.E. He can cure maladies caused by most attacks, including the darkness spell the guardian of darkness used on the guardian of light, but He cannot heal magical rebounds or unintentional reactions caused by magic, therefore, he cannot undo magic taint.]].
-Phoenixes require 'star power' in nearly the same way to other organisms needing food, for should a phoenix run out of star power, they may become incapacitated temporarily to try and regenerate it naturally.

More abilities and limitations might be added later on, though not many.))

(([Edit]: The little/no sign of present weakening, well, let's just say that 30 years' turmoil has a slight tendency to hide future expressions, though he is already acknowledging that he is not in a fit state to combat the guardian of darkness. No, not all of this was created over night, most of this has been thought up and refined before last autumn.
I suppose it's also worth noting that I put all this OOC, though it's usually because I just don't see how best I could implement it IC without it just being awkward, out of place, or just out right against the context of my character.
In a way, it is my fault for having my character trapped in ice, focused on tracking a magic signature, or other wise, just not set up to demonstrate what ever attributes he has, but then, it's hard to do anything when I find it easiest and least complicating to respond to another's actions, so in a sense, it's better that I didn't just randomly fly into a wall when I was in the cave, for that would've been a stupid moment to show how fast Catcocomics can fly. It wouldn't make sense if I just fell out of the sky now and started acting as if something was blocking my lungs, all simply to a sudden lacking of star light. Some effects occur slowly, some simply have to be introduced properly in order to be demonstrated. Sorry that my brain is unable to turn a wall of text into a paragraph.))

Ross sits up, the melting snow rejuvenating him quickly, "It's Ross. I'm sorry for how I greeted you initially, I was a bit steamed. Wait...you were possessed by a demon? I didn't even know...I just kind of...did something..."

Ross pauses, unsure how to bring up the subject. "The previous me....Neptune, right? I know you killed him....But I know it couldn't have been intentional....What happened?"

Cyra looked at the new creatures, annoyed. No one can answer her questions if creatures keep coming. She frowned, considering to leave again.

Right now, there were the Guardians of Light, Life, Death, Hope, Nether, and two winged creatures in front of her.

She watched every creature consider Hope's suggestion, still annoyed.

He knew the guardian of darkness had to be somewhere, though where exactly... His only clue to the guardian's location was the magic energy signature he'd found when he had encountered the dummy, though he was certain that he drew closer to the guardian of darkness by the second.
"I'm going to have to find him soon... the blizzard beacon seriously drained both water and star power... I'll have to be careful when I find him... assuming I actually find him."
Simple flight alone will not cost star power, but speeds must be regulated because it does cost star power to prevent the atmosphere from ripping his body apart, though he didn't have to worry too much about that as long as he stayed a good deal under the sound barrier.

Guardian of the Nether

Remillia's face had tensed up after the angel, Airis it seemed, had appeared again. She hated angels. She hated everything from the Aether and usually would rather violently destroy them usin.... She clenched her teeth. She was thinking of about abusing her powers again. She could tell from her violent thoughts, even though she already had a hatred for the Aether. Though... She had once been like this. Hm, interesting.

The black haired man--or was he still a boy?--then looked around, when his gaze stopped on the angel. "Why doesn't Airis just fly her there? He'd be much quicker on his wings." the man suggested.

Remillia clenched her teeth so tightly that she thought she might break a tooth. "What?! Why would I WANT to..." She shook her head furiously. This wouldn't do. Her head swirled as she tried to suppress those vicious thoughts.

"Ugh, sorry. I really don't w-want to be c... carried by t-this... DESPICABLE p-piec... a-a-angel... i-in any shape or f-form, but if I must, t-then I'll do it."

So much for suppressing those vicious thoughts. "Argh! I-I d... didn't m-m-mean... that..." She stuttered, but she decided it might be best for her to clamp her mouth shut for a while; after all, if she couldn't utter a sentence without insulting someone, she didn't think the Guardians would be very happy. But insulting the angel was something she didn't mind.

((Also, catco, I don't think trap was talking about your character as a whole. He was talking about what your character has shown currently, and how your character was using powerful magic without stop that offered an easy solution to a problem and conflicted with another in a cave without starlight, which seems to weaken your powers, added to the fact there weren't stars visible even before we entered the cave. Your character as a whole might be fine, though a bit powerful, but that isn't what we're talking about; we're talking about your current actions, and what you've displayed so far, and trap decided that we needed to set some limits down for magic (which I also tried earlier in an RP post where I first created magical taint on page 20. I don't know how to link individual posts, so you might have to find it if you want to read it.).))

Guardian of Wind

*His eyes immediately goes to this winged girl. He feels as if he remembers her from somewhere*

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Alouette. I'm glad I'm not the only winged person here. Do we know each other from somewhere? I'm sorry, I just don't remeber much from my past"

*This other boy then suggested something*

*He then listens what Remilia said*

"I'm sorry, I'm a little bit lost here. Why exactly do you all want me to fly Remilia? And where?"

*Airis then looks at Remilia*

"Despicable? Easy there. I wouldn't talk like that if I were you. I don't even know you"

*Airis flips his dark hair turning around and staring at the boy who suggested it*

"So, what exactly you want me to do? And by the way, what's your name?"

The Guardian of Hope

"She's in trouble, they say," Hope responded to Airis, "She said that only the Guardian of Magic could help her. The man with the purple eyes and wears lengthy robes. It'd be highly appreciated if you did this for us and her as it would help all of us." He looked intensely at Airis and then back at Remillia. He wasn't sure how either of them would take this and wanted to suggest this tentatively.

((going to post anyway even if @Fiestaguy's Character isn't here to react to Remillia jumping off his back. It'll just be assumed he's ok with Hope's plan anyway U: ))

Remillia nodded, silently hating the idea but not voicing her opinion. She climbed off of Light's back, and stumbled once she reached the ground, her head protesting against the idea. She walked towards Airis carefully, studying his face.

Had he been around during that time? Hopefully not, but he didn't look like he recognized her, so she assumed not. Her expression was neutral, almost smiling, but her eyes showed an immense hatred that betrayed her expression. "S-Sorry about my c-c-comment earlier. I... don't really like angels, b-but I'll make... ... an e-e-exception." She said. She put a hand up to her head. Her mind was filled with hatred, and she was having trouble stopping it...

"We need t-to get there... q-quickly!"

((oh god help, how does he carry me? D:))

"If that's not okay with her, then... There's always me." Alouette shrugs, looking at the others. She turns back to Airis. "Maybe... I..." She blinks, and sees something- a memory?- in the momentary darkness. She closes her eyes, and sees it again: it is a memory, one from another world... Maybe it was the last planet...?
--
She's flying, but she's not alone. There's someone else,close enough to hear over the wind rushing around them. It feels like hours pass in the seconds she remembers, hours of talking and laughing and playing tricks and
flying.
But through the whole memory, she never sees her companion's face. She hears him speak, she brushes the edge of his wing... But never sees his face.
She 'wakes' from the dreamlike memory in less than a minute.
--
"I think we did know each other," she starts, "Maybe on the last planet...?" She shakes her head. "I don't remember much either... Just someone... A friend..." Sighing, she continues, "But we can puzzle that out later. We've got to help her now."

...

Guardian of Wind

*Airis stares at Alouette's eyes*

"Maybe there's some past between us. I can't explain the feeling... it's just this strong connection I feel between us. I'd love to continue having our talk but you're right. We need to hurry up"

*Airis gives her a smile and then turns to face Remilia*

"It's fine, I don't hold grudges. You might not like angels and we don't need to be best friends but I can assure you I'll do my best to help you. You can count on me. You can jump into my back holding me tight with your hands around my chest."

*Airis looks back at Alouette again*

"No... I mean, I don't want you getting hurt out there by going with us. I just want you... to be safe"

*Airis turns to Remilia*

"Where exactly do you want me to fly you to? Do you know the way?"

Eternal darkness has fallen, but I seek do dispel this accursed healing snow of the despicable frost phoenix. Extending my conciousness out into the shadow, I feel the life force that Catcocomics has invested into this likely lifesaver. I then proceed to shatter this soul shard into thousands of fragments, each feeding the darkness. I hear a shriek. I suppose you can't have part of your soul shattered without feeling it a little, I chuckle.

Guardian of Fire

"Hello Ross. As you seem to know I am Pyro. I was friends with the old you, Neptune. If you have time the tale goes like this":

Neptune... he was the only Guardian who gave a damn about me. The others were all scared of me. Besides Light. Light tried to be friendly with me when he could but he always seemed to be busy with other things.

I just... I couldn't save Neptune. What you removed me from me was a Fire Demon. Probably the last one still alive after I practically destroyed all of them in the fire but I don't know. The story behind what happened to Neptune begins when I was assigned a task by him to settle some volcanoes in the south that were pouring into the oceans. I was ambushed by Fire Demons and immediately possessed me but Neptune sensed something was wrong and came to help.... He was the first to feel the explosion from my powers. He sacrificed himself trying to stop it.

Thus ending the tale of Neptune. I don't remember anything that happened after that until I cast myself into exile.

Ross sat in silence, absorbing the tale. After a minute or so, Ross broke the silence. "I- I'm sorry." He knew that didn't express quite what he felt, but it would have to suffice. His feelings had no words. "If I have this right, I asked you to pull the reigns on some volcanoes that were acting up, and you got possessed. I tried to help, but failed. You created an inferno to destroy them, but it got out of hand. After most of the demons had been incinerated, I tried to extinguish the cataclysmic fire, but it was too much, and the planet was consumed?"

"That's a slightly different story than what the Guardian of Magic told me...He said that you were a Guardian that went rogue and misused your power, and intentionally destroyed the planet...I believed it at first, but then I had a dream...And then I knew it could have possibly been intentional."

Ross placed a hand on Pyro's shoulder, "I still don't think the others will be thrilled to see you again....But most of them seem to like me, so maybe I can change their minds. And besides, what's water without fire?" Ross gave a sly smile. "Say, what are you doing all the way out here anyway?" Ross turned to Fauna, "The same to you."
