Tales of Symphonia: Unknown Tales

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby ArtFreakAngel on Sat Apr 26, 2008 1:54 pm

Image
This thread is based on the game, Tales of Symphonia. It was an idea by Chaos Adept.
~~~~~~~~~~
Two worlds exist, parallel to each other. However, they lie in alternate dimensions, making them unknown of each other's existence. Their names are Sylvarant(sil-va-ront) and Tethe'alla(te-they-all-a). They both have a prophecy, by which the Church of Martel is based.

"Once upon a time, there existed a giant tree that was the source of mana. A war, however, caused this tree to whither away, and a hero's life was sacrificed in order to take it's place. Grieving over the loss, the goddess disappeared unto the heavens. The goddess left the angels with this edict: 'You must wake me, for if I should sleep, the world will be destroyed.' The angels bore the Chosen One, who headed towards the tower that reached up unto the heavens. And that marked the beginning of the regeneration of the world."


Both Sylvarant and Tethe'alla have a Chosen One. However, Tethe'alla's world is flourishing, so he doesn't fulfill the prophecy currently. In both worlds, there are two main races, elves and humans. There are also those who have both elven and human blood, due to cross-breeding. Elves are intune with nature, can sense mana, and can use magic. Humans can use magic only if given a magic item or injected with elven blood. Dwarves and gnomes also exist, but they remain alone, or underground.

The thread will take place at the beginning of Colette's journey of world regeneration. She starts by leaving Iselia for the Temple of Fire with Kratos and Raine. Lloyd and Genis join them later.

Name: Nweris Melusine
Age: 23
Race: Human
Appearance(clothing, skin, facial, hair, etc): Tonal build, black hair mid-back usually tied back, bangs frame her face, pale skin, purple eyes shaped angled like those of a serpent or dragon, markings on lower back and under her left eye, tight clothing (so as not to impede her swordsmanship) in earthy colors (greens, browns, blacks, dark reds), dual scimitars strapped to both hips (when practicing her swordplay), soft leather boots, black gloves, single earring of a dangling crescent moon in her left
Height+Weight: 5'8" 120 lb.
Class: Warrior
Weapon(If you use magic, include your magic types): Dual Scimitars
Home: Asgard
Bio: Nweris grew up in the town of Asgard. Her mother was taken from her at a young age by the Desians. She was left in the care of the town people from that day on. When she was of age, she began an apprentenceship with a travelling swordsman. Through their travels, she came across a small fox pup who's mother had been killed. She nursed the pup to full health and it dutifully followed her wherever she went. She was skilled in the use of dual swordsmanship and soon became her mentor's equal. During a raid on the Asgard Human Ranch, her mentor was struck down. He told her to flee and to live her life for the people before he was killed in front of her by the Desians. She bought herself a residence in Asgard and spends her time travelling the various country sides, helping those in need and making the Desians' lives as difficult as possible. She is currently travelling through the town of Iselia.
Occupation/Social Standing: Mercenary/Stranger

[OOC: And now, the intro...]

The woman looked around the town. Most of the people eyed her warily as she walked through. Everyone else was in a frenzy, rushing about here and there. Obviously, strangers were not something people saw here very often. A boy bumped into her, knocking her to back a step. The boy fell flat on his backside. "Ow," he complained. The woman offered him a hand and he sheepishly grabbed it, righting himself. "Ah, sorry about that. I wasn't looking where I was going."

"It's fine," the woman replied. Suddenly a second child walked up to him, shaking her head. "If we don't get home now, momma's gonna be real mad." The woman moved aside and let them run by. She shook her head and looked for someone who may have been able to tell her what was going on in the town. She spotted a man standing off to the side and figured he was as good as anyone.

"Excuse me, sir," she began, "If I may ask, why is the town in such an uproar?"

The man replied with a gruff voice, "Don'tcha know? The Chosen's left on her journey o' regeneration and the Desians are all in an uproar 'bout it. We're trying ta get word ta her now ta be careful."

"Where are they headed and when did they leave?" she asked. "I can get to them faster than any other messenger you have here."

The man eyed her warily, seeing if the woman before him could be trusted. She never broke his gaze and the man merely shrugged. "They're headed fer the Temple o' Fire up by that village, what's-it-called, Triet. Chosen and her party left, what is it, 'bout two days ago." The woman bowed and raced back to the entrance. They had a slight lead on her, but she was confident that she'd be able to keep her pace steady. She'd gone farther with less sleep before. She just hoped she wouldn't be too late.

Another day, Another of his supplie's gone, in the end, It's worth it though, The kid staring at him now had severed two finger's cleaning fish, both were re-attached and life would go on as regular. However, he would need more supplie's, he was dangerously low on Gels, He would have to head for triet in the next couple day's to get some, not to mention the fact that he needed a break, the work was rewarding but exhausting, especially with all the fishing accident's lately. He looked back to the boy and ran his hand through the child's hair then spoke "go clean up the blood on your hand, then get to your father, and tell him you get the rest of the day off." He took out a sheat of paper, and scribbled on it NOT HERE, please be carefull His signature scribble beneath it, Grabbing the key to his hut, he locked the door and left the note upon his door.

Present time...

She stopped as she walked through the entrance of the village. It had never been so hard crossing the desert before. The increased monster activity provided quite an obstacle to overcome. Most of her strength was sapped as she walked through the small shops, looking for a merchant to sell her a gel or two. She barely made it past the first stall before a dizzying sensation overwelmed her. Jaks, here small travelling companion whined from inside her pack, but the woman couldn't hear it. She knew she was falling, but felt nothing as black engulfed her vision, passing out in the middle of the road.

Present time

The woman fell like a rock, It had taken longer to stir up supplies at the prices he needed, he daren't waste any, moving quickly he tossed his staff aside, and cradled the woman's head in his lap, Magic flowed freely from his hands. "First Aid!" The healing magic rushed forward, Mending minor wounds and bruises, the ache's and pain's. A small crowd gathered along to watch, the magic had not taken much, but was still amazing to humans, for some reason, it always amazed them. The earing hanging from her ear was in the shape of a crescent moon, and looked valuable, as did the weapons she carried. He sat there waiting for the woman to wake, with his staff out of reach.

Very slowly, she opened her eyes, vision still slightly blurry. Once her vision had cleared, she noticed she was lying on her back, her head cradled in the lap of a man clothed in robes. 'A healer?' She sat up slowly and checked herself for damage or missing articles. Once everything was determined to be in its proper place, she turned to the man sitting beside her and nodded her head. "Thank you for helping me. Please, let me pay for the trouble I caused, or at least, the cost of the gel." She patted Jaks on the head and returned him to her pack.

She stood and brushed the dust and sand from her clothing. The crowd, seeing that nothing of interest was happening any longer, dispersed. She offered her hand down to the man to help him to his feet. "By the way, my name's Nweris. It is my fortune to make your aquaintance, sir."

"My pleasure to meet you, I am Jakob, and you don't need to repay me the cost, for it didn't cost anything." He spoke Smiling as he stood, Turning around he lifted his staff, the runes on it's side glowed faintly, as usual. Turning back to nweris he said" I consider it my duty to help spread a better name for half elves, hate me if you will, But I have saved you a great deal of time and gald."

She smiled and bent forward to examine his staff. Magic always did fascinate her. "Not only that, but I doubt I would have any belongings left to call my own if I were left here on my own. I am truly grateful." She stood and faced him. "I'm not as small minded as most people. I would never have survived to my present age if I were. The only ones I hate are those who truly deserve it. Namely the Desians."

Mention of the horrible group reminded her of why she was in this town to begin with. "Sorry to be a bother again Jakob, but could you, by chance, tell me if you have seen the Chosen and her companions around here? I have a message for her from her hometown." She hoped her word would be enough to convince him she meant no harm. After all, there are only two reasons one would ask about the Chosen. To harm her or to help her. And more likely than not, it was the former.

"I have heard rumor, tell of the Chosen being here, but have not seen it, they have probably already left, world regeneration is no small task, they would do well to move fast. but I hear that one in the chosen's party is an archeological genius, I can take you to the ruins that she would be at, if it is true, she would not be able to resist, we should probably see if we can find any in this town who will come with us, the desert's being what they are today." truth be told, he barely made it to Triet, he would have to get someone to help him back to izoold.

She nodded aimlessly. It was a long shot, but all that she had to go on. "Yes, I would appreciate that." She looked around the small town and frowned. All she could see were merchants and tradesmen. "Do you know of anyone in the area that we could persuade to join us? I would not want to trek out in the desert again without the extra help. Perhaps in the inn?" she suggested, noticing a group of men make there way into the dusty building.
