Character Name: Aoi

Desired Fable: Lady of the Lake (Diligence)

What has your character done to qualify them for the fable / gather the attention of the fable?:

Aoi has never been one to put her stock into fables. Coming from a wartorn home which led to being found by a new family. Though, this new family in the end would turn their backs upon her as well. She thinks she should be dead, in fact she has died. Subsequently saved by the aid of ichor mages who brought her soul back into the world. Yet, the events leading to her death are something she realizes she would stand for. She does not have a moral code that is the greatest. However, there is one thing she wants to do. Protect those who cannot protect themselves. She had set off in order to take out an individual she deemed to be dangerous, who had attacked a member of the black fins while they were unconscious. He could not fight for himself, and in a moment of desperation his attacker swung once more before running off. Some people deserve mercy, others do not - and in turn will meet their end. She is not exactly seeking out the lady of the lake and does not have a specific oath in mind. However, she has one thought - protect those who have taken her in once more. For they came to her aid, now, she wishes to come to theirs. Aoi is no knight. She will never aspire to be a knight. Just a protector, a blade if she is needed.

Character Name - Marcel Thelwen
Fable - Phoenix & Equinox - Touch of the Twinned Bird

What has your character done to qualify them for the fable / gather the attention of the fable?:

Marcel Thelwen has lived a life of balance in as much as he can, appeasing his Phoenix blessing by coming to the aid of any who require it, and appeasing his Equinox blessing by taking on a role as a caretaker within his house for his family, being a calm presence to lean on.  He sought out the Phoenix originally (though unintentionally) by yearning with his heart for freedom and adventure and to be useful to those around himself.  He sought the Equinox so as to understand death and its purpose in the world better, to find peace within the turmoil of the world.  Now, he feels as if he understands far better the balance of the world, between life, which he lives overflowing, and death, the certainty of which comforts him despite any danger.
He now wishes to fulfill what he sees as his purpose, to be a guiding light to others, a helper in any way he can.
He wishes to know balance so well, that he can find the path between the two halves of a coin.
He wishes to fly.

Character Name: Etwyn

Desired Fable: Spirit of the Fire Dragon

 

What has your character done to qualify them for the fable / gather the attention of the fable?: Etwyn has already gained scales via the Fire Dragon, and is trying to fufill his oath to protect his family, while not currently in the spire he either prays at home or makes small pilgrimages to a place of worship if available in Mariza. He seeks more power from the dragon to defend his family either via praying harder (disc rp) or a pilgramage to the spire (in game)

Sidenote: he is not consistently played anymore but i desire to have him visit once in a while and to fill out my Feat Slots

Character Name: Monty
Desired Fable: Lady of the Lake

What has your character done to qualify them for the fable / gather the attention of the fable?:

 

Spoiler

The ever so fearless youth of the Spire- sworn to protect it, his home, the soil his father rests within...
Turns out the fear of the unknown can truly manifest if one stares into the abyss for too long. And having taken part in the closing of a rift between the void and our realm, he came to realize the beyond and it's creatures utterly terrify him. Something truly beyond him struck with the unnatural horror of things there should not be there. Something to lurk his dreams with terror and cast paranoia to the presence of silence...

The boy seeks counsel, peace, freedom from the newfound paralyzing fear, failing to realize he is the only one to be able to grant this freedom, to find his courage once again and rid himself of this nightmare and face the beyond when the time comes without faltering. But... for now only the fears remain, fears he became unaccustomed to, something he thought was able to overcome by sheer resolve.

Now, he wanders, fleeing from sleepless nights with the hopes of outrunning the very thing he is carrying with himself. But perhaps all he needs is some guidance, something beyond his understanding to meet the fears of the same nature...

 

Additional Notes:
Not looking to acquire the feat just yet, rather for an encounter with the lady, as I'd like Monty to encounter the Lady about three or so times before stepping up take the Oath- this being one of them. Having developed a phobia of the ether after the rift event, his bravery is being tested, as overcoming it would be necessary moving down the path, and perchance the Lady could help him with that.. (Or technically help himself, but you know what I mean)

I'm also curious if another character can accompany him in this outing who also is interested in taking up with the Pond Princess- It is fine if not, but doing it together would serve as a good narrative tool!

Character Name: Rott
Desired Fable: Shrine Keeper

What has your character done to qualify them for the fable / gather the attention of the fable?:

Spoiler

Shrine of the Immortal Warrior

Rottjarnsmidar has spent a majority of his time in the Spire with a single goal in mind: the transformation of a mortal to a golem in an effort to wage an immortal war with the arcane world. After much experimentation he has decided to follow a new path, using the power of fables to extend the survivability of those who fight under him. As a master of artifice who has successfully transferred the soul of a mortal to a golem before, he is seeking to use the healing power of a shrine to resurrect and heal those who fight for his cause by replacing their broken organs with artificed synthetic parts and magical tools at his disposal so long as their body is not completely eviscerated. 

Just a couple fellas in the mountains, helping each other climbmax

Character Name: Artimisa
Desired Fable: Aspect of the Dragon - Scales

What has your character done to qualify them for the fable / gather the attention of the fable?:
Since her arrival in the spire, Artimisa has been a wanderer and warrior of fierceness, protecting those she hold now dear to her as well as companions that hold comfort and joy in her stay by the reach. Spearheading a search for her surrogate daughter who was once lost to an unknown assailant and caring for her partner when she both needs and wants such, There was a point in time where a fellow dear follower of the dragon's spirit has vouched for her determined protectiveness that could be of a value of attention to the spirit; Should she come to heed it.

Coming from northern origins, There was a bit of hesitancy to the Wanderer and so It had took her awhile to both consider and even think of such activity but with how her recent trials and tribulations have been, Artimisa can't help but all the more ponder. She needs to be stronger in order to protect and keep those she holds dear to her soul. Come up with new ways to both battle and placate the dangers and threats that may come for her only family.

Perhaps she could come to an accord.

Character Name: Hote
Desired Fable: Divine Gardener (Holy Garden-keeper)

What has your character done to qualify them for the fable / gather the attention of the fable?:
Hote has always lived on the fringes of civilization, from the arctic tundras of the north to the wilds encircling the Spire. His entire life devoted to a single, sacred principle: the cycle of life and death. All that he possesses, he uses completely, before he takes up a new one, and all that he consumes, he eventually returns to the wild. His garden and shrine lie in the very heart of wilderness—a place where maggots and worms cleanse the dead, where animals graze on grasses and flowers, and where decay nourishes the roots of new life.

 

 

Character Name: Rio
Desired Fable: Fable of the Lucky Coin

What has your character done to qualify them for the fable / gather the attention of the fable?:

Spoiler

The moment Rio left her homeland, she began defying fate, taking her life into her own hands. Since arriving in the Spire, she has done whatever was necessary to live on her own terms - sometimes only possible through sheer luck.

To further explore her freedom, she became involved with the Black Fins. Through a series of unfortunate events, they have been forced to evade the law, and Rio has faced bounty hunter after bounty hunter. Some she has bested through skill alone; others, through luck. She has been gambling with fate more than ever, and now seeks to ensure fortune remains on her side by pursuing the Lucky Coin.

Thanks to her newfound dragon scales, which feed her will to grow stronger, she desires power by any means necessary - even if it means breaching the law again. For Rio, the Lucky Coin represents more than mere chance: it is a gamble for her freedom, the most precious thing she holds. Should she succeed, luck itself will be an ally, bending fate in her favor once more.

Character Name: Crow
Desired Fable: Equinox & Phoenix - Touch of the Phoenix (Planning for Trio)

What has your character done to qualify them for the fable / gather the attention of the fable?:

Just a Crow.

Spoiler
Crow has finally closed the long chapter of his life of being a mercenary in the Northern Kingdoms, only to open a new one in the Southern Reach. He abides by an understanding of the cycle as a truth rather than being in particular reverence to it, as regardless of whatever else they may be, the sun still rises at dawn and it sets at dusk. At the same time, he views himself as a guide to others as an officer in combat, a sort of tough love figure.

While not the most pious figure, he too is a representation of the cycle. Not to mention a bird himself.

Character Name: Fukurō Saisui
Desired Fable: Lady of the Lake (Oath of Bravery)

What has your character done to qualify them for the fable / gather the attention of the fable?:

An Oathsworn seeking a second audience, a second promise to be made.  Having been one of her Oathsworn for little over a month now, Fukurō has thus far managed to succeed in his duty to protect the innocents of the world. There has been and likely always will be the desire, the need, to do more for others. He has little want for any status a title may bring, but the tales his family told him of warriors serving under the lord or lady of a clan intrigued him. Seeing such warriors in action further solidified the desire to become a warrior serving directly under the Lady of the Lake.
