Image

Nicknames: "T"
Age: 22 Years
Gender:

Race: Human
Nationality: Lósényǔ
Place of Birth: Tianshi City

Skin Tone: Light tan
Eye Color: Yellow

Height: 5'11"
Weight: 140 Ibs

Appearance: Tal is a bit tall, with dark hair and an athletic build. Not much is known about Tal. With a rather androgynous appearance, doubled with the rugged cowl and various hats or face masks they wear, no one even knows Tal's gender. Some have been able to guess, but they were most likely wrong. A long cloak is usually found draping down their back. It is probably never the same one twice. Below their right eye is a tattoo. It is an old, traditional form of a Losenyu character. Tal wears tough boots that lace up to their knee and baggy pants and a baggier shirt that folds over.

Equipment:

  • Leather backpack
    -Pots, pans, herbs, flint and tinder, cured meat, food, maps

  • Chain knife

  • Talismans
    -Sealing
    -Breaking
    -Elemental
    -Rejection
    -Portal
    -Shielding
    -Creation
    -Rejuvenation
    -Communication
    -Necromancy
    -Light & Dark

So begins...

Tal nodded, smiling fondly, "Ah. Yes. Just once, though. I mostly hear about everyone else's experiences, but, well. I met someone here once. Just once. I come back in hope to see them again. It's been a few months, but there's hope that maybe I'll meet some others just like them, if I can't see them again."

With a nod, the traveler turned in their seat, finishing off the rest of the water. Tal then stood up, reaching into their cloak and placing another thin slip of paper onto the table.

"It's a bit late. I'm going to retire, but I'm thankful, Markuss. I want to speak to you again." Tal said, then turning to Jakob. "Perhaps another time we may speak, too. When the bar is not a battlefield."

And, with that, Tal pulled the hook back up and walked out the door.

Coming in again was Tal, a known wanderer about Wing City. The traveler had been running the odd errand here and there for little pay, perhaps a bit of food or to have somewhere to sleep at night, though, lately, Tal had run an errand that had a generous reward. That reward would be used that day at Gambit's.

Walking in, the traveler's sharp yellow eyes darted around. There was one pair of people in the corner speaking, but not much else. Tal sat at the booth, looking over the menu. The first of what would be ordered tonight?

Simply water.

Tal's hand came up and dragged down the cowl, revealing a young face with thin lips and a pointed chin. As the water came, the traveler drank, draining the glass in one go.

Turning, Tal looked out along the people. Two women and a man, all sort of speaking to one another. It seemed a bit willy-nilly at the moment.

Looking to Kiyah's elbow, Tal's eyes narrowed. That must have hurt.

White strips of paper with symbols written onto them flew in a tornado above the river. They took the place of feathers, which had since vanished deep within the water.

Upon the bank sat a heavily clothed figure, with a scarf and a cloak wrapped around them as though it were winter, though the heat from the spring night was stifling.

They looked at the woman who came running from the bank, away from the talismans, who began to float toward the seated figure, gathering in a neat pile within their palm. They waited, patiently, for the woman to calm down.

The figure blinked up at Taylor, and, very slowly, rose. They looked as if they were getting ready for a very long winded explanation.

Instead, they shrugged, and began to walk off into the forest, towards the city. It was not clear whether Taylor was to follow or not, but there was not much else to do.

Several talismans were retrieved from their pocket, which flew around them and glowed enough to illuminate a path.

The figure rose their hand and pointed to the distance, where the glowing talismans danced ahead. At least a few miles ahead. To a distant city.

Wing City.

"Not far." they said, wrapping their cloak more tightly around them. "Your friends. You will find them soon."

"The spirits found a new champion. For now." replied Tal. "He chose the Path, and decided to take it off your shoulders. Those who did not choose the Path on their own."

They stretched one arm in front of them, and, dancing on their fingertips, holograms of light revealing a young man walking through dense rain forest with a sword. They closed their hand, and the hologram vanished.

"Do you have nothing to do here?"

The figure looked over their shoulder, cheeks moving up in a smile. "And to you." they said, stopping. "I can't go very far. You can walk to the city on your own." They looked into the distance.

"You've got more in front of you than you think, even with Sozo taken out of your hands. Enjoy your break while you can."

"Why don't you go see for yourself?" asked Tal, gesturing to the city. "If not them, then a chance to gather your bearings. Get used to Terra again."

A figure in long robes came into the area, walking at a calm, casual pace. Bright golden eyes faced the sky as they walked, the robes just barely dragging on the ground behind them. Dark hair fell down their back in a loose ponytail, and atop their head was a straw kasa.

They paused, suddenly, upon hearing the sound of...chewing. The figure looked around, somewhat curious, somewhat concerned for what might have been around.

The robed figure jumped as again, the sound of very loud chewing could be heard. They hesitantly approached the area, and again paused.

Now, Tal was along the lines of a monk. A bit different from the traditional, of course, but something along the lines, all the same. Which is why it was quite a surprise for Tal to see a completely naked young lady walk out from behind the boulders.

Tal held out a hand from where they were, palm facing the girl, so they could see nothing but her face and legs. Their face reddened considerably.

"Miss! Are you alright?"

Tal held up both hands now, biting their lips. "Ah...yes. You are not...in need of assistance? You seem to have a distinct lack of...clothing." They approached her carefully, then grabbed the first layer of their robes, the blue silk, and tried to carefully drape it over her shoulders.

"I'm...not here to eat, no..."

Tal lifted the cloak quickly as she tried to bite it. They took a step back. "No." said Tal, frowning. "Clothing is for wearing, not for eating." They held it in their hands to their chest. "Please stay still and do not try to bite."

"Because it's decent." said Tal again, putting the cloak over her shoulders, if they could. THey would tie it at her front. "You must not be from around here. You seem like a child. Perhaps you were stranded in the forest long ago?"

"A child is a young person." said Tal, scratching the back of their head for the mere awkwardness of it all. "This-" They gestures to the mass of trees before them, "-is a forest. A place with a lot of trees. And stranded means...to be left alone." They hoped that would suffice. It would be difficult getting any more basic.

The sizzling drool did capture their attention, but...Tal had seen many strange things since coming to Terra. This was...not so bad.

Tal frowned, feeling compassion for the strange girl. "All my condolences. Where is it that you are from?" they asked, approaching her slowly. "It must surely have been a long time. It would make sense, why you are the way that you are." They wondered, briefly, what kind of creature she must have been.
