A girl with brown hair and bright yellow eyes arrived and waved you over. “Hii guys!!! !!! We’re still waiting for Kulvir to arrive.”
“Umm well, I mean. There’s not really much point in trains anyway, right? You can take the bus around the city or just walk. People hardly go to the Hermes or Achlys districts so there’s no need for regular service. But… hey- sorry. I’m not sure I know your name, your eyes though suggest you’re… you know. One of us. Hah. How do you know Kulvir? Do you know Kulvir?”
Yknow, back in my day, if the train didnt arrive on time we made a minecart and used it to go find our connections in the cartel. I dont think i have any anymore though…
I’m sorry but why is there TWO BINGO SPACES RELATED TO FORESKINNING??? ALSO WHO THE HELL KILLED THE LAST GOLDFISH? Also can we please commission an artist to make art about yaoi/yuri/yaori if it does happen?
“Yeah, I never really use the train system here either. And no, not really. I’ve been living under a rock lately, focusing on my studies, as well as this… power I’ve received. I just saw the crowd and wandered over since there’s nothing much to do nowadays.”
He squints at her at the mention of eyes.
“Huh… You’re right. I thought this coloring was some freak side effect, but…”
He glances around, looking at the people speaking earlier. Their eyes weren’t quite the normal coloring an eye would be.
“‘One of us.’ Fitting. I assume most people here have some sort of power?”
“Woah there. That’s some crazy coincidence that you’ve ran into likely the largest gathering of our uh… type… then, probably in the entirety of anywhere! Maybe don’t go shouting about your powers, though. We’ve kept it under the radar for now. Nobody has a clue, so lets keep it that way.”
A boy with bright emerald green eyes approached. “Hey Rebecca, who’s this?”
“This is uh. I didn’t catch his name, but he’s one of us.”
For a moment, Rebecca and the boy with green eyes glanced at each other in silent understanding, as if this was a bit more of a major revelation to them than she was initially letting on. After a moment, the boy reached out his hand as if to shake yours.
“Hi there, I’m Jordan. Good to meet you, uh…?”
A girl runs into the station
“I’m here- not late for the train am i-”
She grabs her knees starting to catch her breath
She has long black hair that is currently a bit messy, with bright blue eyes with a hint of red?
She is wearing mostly dark clothes that look pretty comfy and lose fitting along with a bag on her back
“Waiting for Kul- a friend of mine to be exact. Uh, you wouldn’t perhaps be-”
She doesn’t finish her sentence. By looking at the now rather large crowd and seeing that most of them have either odd looking eyes, exotic hair or that sort of maddened look about them that suggests they may be recipients of the ‘Gift’.
She knew plenty of the people here, for sure, but there’s also many new faces, and to be completely honest she hadn’t really clocked that Theodore had made so many more Curse and Blessing users than she was originally aware of.
“Oh! Lucky- Um. He’s not here yet.”
She continued to rush about as the crowd gathered, welcoming everyone. “Troy! Serena! William! Hey guys- you alright? I know you’re not great friends with Kulvir, but since everyone took place in the Trial together- it’d be nice to at least see him off.”
This continued for about ten more minutes, until he arrived. Kulvir Makarov was a pale man, a gloomy man, a dark man. His hair was pitch black, and his eyes were a dark violet colour. He was carrying two large bags, and a third was carried by a younger man with black hair and pale green eyes, who shadowed behind him, looking slightly down.
The Story Begins
Submissions for characters remain open. If your kit has not been approved yet, I will get around to it in the next few days. If you wish to play but do not want to make a kit (either at the moment, or at all) please just say and I can add your character to the game but you will not be able to participate in combat events. There may be a few days of delay as I add all the character details into my system.
‘A thousand years of history lie in this district, but within recent years a new fire grows that threatens North Guapo and may change the world beyond.’
Jane and Calypso arrive at the train station.
[Story Point: 01] Goodbye to Kulvir Makarov
The train station lay silent other than the group of students standing a little way away from the main platform, gathered around a tall, pale man with dark hair and violet eyes. “Thank you everyone, for coming to see me off… I’m… honoured.”
Jane looked at Calypso, “Well… I mean I guess we just go and say bye?”
‘Despite being around the Curse Users often, she hasn’t quite worked out what’s going on. Originally terrified by the slightest thing wrong, her confidence has grown rapidly these last six months, and now she’s preparing to enter her final year at Odysseus Academy.’

She enjoys performing on stage, being a team leader and seeing the sights of the world alongside her close friend and sweetheart Jordan Holmes.

THE DARKFLAME CURSE
‘A quiet boy with mysterious and often conflicting motives. He helped run an underground Curse tournament, the Trial of Ashen Hills, with Levi Winters earlier this year, but also speaks words of peace. Something troubles him, although you know what not, as he has grown further away from everyone but Martyn Night, Rebecca Cook and Jordan Holmes as of recent. He’s about to leave The Eleventh for an opportunity as an apprentice in The Third, to utilise his skill in mathematics and his creative mind.’
