Briefly explain the lore behind this construct or creature:

Once, in the icy realm of Skjoldier, a legend arose. A story of a young woman who was engaged, Kriemhild. All was prepared - perfectly in place - for her wedding day, or so it seemed: her groom abandoned her at the altar. And as any bride who would go through this, melancholy arose to her soul. Such emotion was overwhelming and it soon turned to utter fury - due to this, she went to confront the cowardly man that left her during a blinding blizzard without any protective wear donned on herself. Kriemhild fell, seeking warmth in the ever freezing snow. Then again, that is simply a retelling of the legend. However, some say that, out of pity, Father Winter blessed the young bride, and from this, Frost arose within her. With this, she vanished - leading the towns riddled with suspicion, such led to their own departure. During this, while the townsfolk were testing women out of fear, a Captain by the name of Olaf made a wretched choice to spare his own daughter, Brunhylde, from the testing - believing her to be pure. A grave mistake on his part, seeing as only Brunhylde stepped off on the shore of Asulon, allowing the curse to continue to grow.

Yet, within this Curse, witches’ hearts are never truly full, it is a curse for a reason. Women’s minds etched to that of freezing torment. But, a Witch might receive comfort within their Coven that they couldn’t gain on their own. A Witch has greater abilities with their Coven, for there is more power when they are together. Due to this, Witches have a deep sense of loyalty to their Coven, their sisters, their mothers. Mothers are the head of the Coven, which could be called practically a family, they focus on looking out for their daughters. Speaking of their power, the greatest presence within the realm of Frost Witch Magic, is an Altar. These Altars are not complete without a Coven and a Coven is not complete without an Altar. Such magic that the Witches of Frost hold aren’t limited - their magical practices within range of an altar are that of The Unholy Sabbaths, yet, there are many more abilities a Fjarriagua holds that do not need their sisters’ help to cast.

If this construct or creature has some form of aesthetic choice, can you describe how they look? 

The Curse of Skjoldier that makes the Fjarriagua or Frost Witches is one that brings about wrath of the unloved women. They take an oath to themselves to never feel the love they once seeked - any drop of empathy they once held within them - vaporized, for they now only seek the coldness that the curse brings to them. Fjarriagua can take on many forms, they hold the ability to disguise themselves with ease - to appear as any normal descendant - yet, during this state they lose their ability to wield their magic and thus must return to what is known as their Banshee state. In this state, they appear as how they did before they were cursed but much more creature-like. Their skin pales as if they were frozen, teeth sharpening, nails lengthening, and are cold to the touch. Yet, they still hold beauty to their forms. However, they are severely weak to any flame, if exposed to it for a long time it can lead to terrible damage to them which is only treatable through rituals performed by their Coven. An upside to this, is that Fjarriagua are frozen entirely, which makes them immune to the curse of time that breathes through descendants - making them immortal. A Witch’s mentality changes while being cursed too, they suffer from many extreme mental illnesses - preventing them from any “normal” life they could possibly lead. They’re in a state of endless agony unless being around their Coven or having just fed on an unassuming man, in those times, they are truly content. Anyways, due to this, they’re also incapable of love or desire towards descendants - they are but tools or cattle to the Witch, which prohibits the act of FTB too.

If you need to ask others whether or not to play, I don't recommend playing. Play if you want to, if not, play something else! Can always play in the future if you change your mind.

I heavily stand with this, I'm sure friends here would love to have you back - or even vice versa - but, LOTC will be here for quite a while. Make your own choice on it!

MERRY CRISIS

cursed spear go brrrrrr

fire sord

Astaroth simply stares at the missive in utter, yet disgusted, confusion.

heres a funny insult:

You play the victim so well, I'm surprised you don't carry around your own body chalk.

Damn thank ******* god, praise the devs.

[!] A missive would be hung around The Most Serene State of Lurin


[13th of The Amber Cold, Year 107 of the Second Age]

A Secret Lubba

I, Astaroth, invite the citizens and lliran of The Most Serene State of Lurin to sign up for a small event! Anyone who signs up will become The Secret Lubba for another, where you will pick out a present for someone based on the slip of paper that you are handed. We will get together in four elven days from now to pass out the presents in turns and guess who gave them out! Here's the rules:

- Write down your name and a few ideas of what you want for Krugsmas on a slip of paper and place it on the counter of The Silver Ladybug
- Keep who you get a secret until the gift you give out is opened!
- Make sure you write things that people can actually attain within four elven days.


 

Dear Sir or Madam,
 

I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the shelving elves at our local library. I recently visited the library and was shocked to find that the books were not organized in any logical manner. Instead of being arranged alphabetically or by subject, the books seemed to have been randomly placed on the shelves.
 

As a frequent library patron and avid reader, I rely on the shelving elves to keep the books organized and easy to find. Their lack of attention to detail and disregard for the needs of library users is unacceptable.
 

I demand that immediate action be taken to address this issue. The shelving elves must be properly trained and held accountable for their neglect. I will not stand for such incompetence and disrespect to the library and its users.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]

A White Specter frowned as his gaze caught the words of the missive, he let out a heavy, frustrated sigh - unlike that of his normal nature "He needs to answer my letters... surely, he will ne ignore them forever." His voice echoed across the withered and ruined lands, meeting no ears but his own.

Astaroth groaned upon seeing another missive on Remon.

Foolish older brother...

Character's Age:

         34

         Specter

Briefly explain the lore behind this construct or creature:

Specters are one of the three subtypes of 'Phantoms'. Distinguishable from the other two by their unsettlingly perfect appearance with no bodily sign of the trauma that killed them, this ectoplasmic being comes in the following three colors: White, blue, and yellow. All phantoms suffer from mental ailments and specters, though they have accepted their death to some extent, are no exception. Suffering from melancholy and an oft explicit sorrow, their minds slowly degrade over the decades, with most specters eventually forgetting the life they once held dear. This subtype of ghost is the most likely to move on peacefully once their purpose is fulfilled.

With this, come abilities that are similar to Poltergeists. Specters usually use their powers for their own protection or good-natured reasons. They tend to be more clarified than most in combat as well due to their inner peace. Their abilities are as the following:
Phantasmal: They can't affect the world around them and vice-versa, but they are still bound to some of the laws that govern the world. For example, Phantoms can levitate and pass through things like people and most objects. They don't need to eat, drink, or sleep, and they don't age.
Controlled Corporeality: Specters can briefly take on a physical form, which they can use to interact with people and objects. This form allows them to defend themselves and such. It requires two emotes from the Specter - the first emote should include forcing themselves into the material realm, which will make them slightly less transparent and on the second emote they will become temporarily corporeal, allowing them to make a single attack equivalent to that of a normal person.
Invisibility: Ghosts can cloak themselves in a thin layer of ectoplasm by doing three emotes or two if they were in a sanctuary, making them invisible. When they fade, they are completely undetectable to most, except while under direct sunlight, which will show a subtle outline. To return to visibility, the ghost needs to do one emote.
Shift Form: Specters can change into spectral animals when they're in a calm state. This requires two emotes, which will transform the specter into the chosen animal. For example, they could turn into a bird, a cat, a dog, or something alike - yet, it can be no larger than the size of a deer and no smaller to than the size of a large bird.
Influence: This power, akin to telekinesis, only affects objects within a three-meter radius around the specter, and it can only control one object at a time. To move an object, the specter needs to take one emote to grasp it and one emote to throw it in the desired direction. The object will fly at the same speed as if someone had thrown it themselves, but will fall down if it leaves the three-meter radius.
Instill Peace: A Specter possesses a passive five meter radius aura which can effect those within it. Emotions can range from a sense of calm, happiness, safety, or even excitement.
Possess: Possession means having control over somebody or something. Phantoms can enter bodies - no larger than a normal orc - and project whispers and images into their minds. If a person is possessed, they may feel emotions and get ideas in their dreams. Inanimate objects can also be possessed, but they move clumsily and don't have any real power. Possession is based on a person's mental state, and can be done by spirits or mental magic.
Sanctuary: Specters can choose to bind their ectoplasm to a location. This location must be a dim/depressing area that cannot be larger than 25x25 meters. This will make it so they can't play for one IRL day. Once that day is over, they will be very weak if they try to leave their sanctuary. The aura around them will be projected out further than usual, making it more present in the back of a descendants mind. They may see illusions and hallucinations created by the Specter. Within Sanctuary, as each tier (0-3) progresses, they will be able to have access to certain spells that can only be used in said location. Which are Manifest Corporeally, Blessing of the Ebriateaes, and Pale Water.

If this construct or creature has some form of aesthetic choice, can you describe how they look? 

This ghostly form that Alucard now holds is a see-through yellow form. The small scars from battle upon his skin have now faded, leaving it to what one would call practically perfect and the iris his one eye once held had disappeared.

welcome back

Astaroth tilted her head to side as the armored figure spouts newborn knowledge to her before she gave a thumbs up “Thank you.”

What is one of your best memories on LOTC?

Astaroth stared down upon the missive, a slow smirk rising to her features. Violet hues going side-to-side like the pendulum of a grandfather clock as she re-reads the missive, over and over "Now there are two demons I get to dance with, how exciting, how intriguing." She mused to herself, rushing to grab a second copy of the missive and allowing her Thrush to take hold of it and fly off to a mali'ker.
