(By the way, I have an idea for what their town could look like, here it is: Imagine three tall spires of rock rising out of the desert, with sand made of crystallized yellow diamond -hence the name "Gem"-. Climbing up the spires is a little town, with little colourful houses built right on the rock, connected with bridges and pathways. You guys like?)
(Omg I love that idea! It seems so nice!)
Confused, Lilly turned and followed the two girls to wherever they were taking her. "What about him?" She asked, and nodded a head towards Hunter
(By the way, @Emmett, this is where you can come in with Reyna and explain what she's gonna do with her Talisman)
(@Celestial-B I messed up and said hat there was nowhere around here to stay for miles, when you had already said that Lilly was taking her USUAL walk on the cliff, so do you want to make it so Lilly lives in some sort of a secret house that no one else knows about? Just an idea.
(Sure! That sound fine!)
"He can come too—" Macha started to say before doubling over with a gasp. "Everybody stay back!" Reyna yelled, restraining Lilly as she leapt forward. Macha threw back her head in agony and screamed as her eyes turned jet black and her feet rose inches off the ground. Her body was wrapped in an ethereal white light as if life was being drawn out of her stony skin.
"What's happening?!" Hunter yelled in fear. "Just stay back! DO NOT ouch her!!" Reyna yanked him away. Wispy golden smoke was coming out of Macha's mouth and she rasped in a foreign tongue. With each unfamiliar word she spoke, a golden rune appeared in her arms and the cracks in her stone skin next to her eerily black eyes began to spread down her face. With one final scream, the runes disappeared, she stopped glowing, the gold smoke was sucked back into her mouth and she fell to the ground, Reyna just barely catching her. Macha coughed once in an almost death-like rattle, and her eyes turned back to blazing gold.
"What. Just. Happened." All eyes turned to Hunter.
(Btw, she was trying to speak a prophecy, which she does not have the ability to do yet)
Hi can i join? If yes, then this is my character :):
Her name is Elaphi (meaning deer in Greek), she is 18 y/o, and she had long, tangled ombre (brown into strawberry blonde) hair that turns white in the winter, which she hates. Her skin is made out of a pearly material, and her eyes are violet, and catch the light as if they were made of crystal. She can be very dark, and has been scarred by all the trauma she's dealt with, but is still brave. She would kill for the people she loves,, and her mother and brother died in a fire, whilst her little sister was kidnapped. She steals for her own survival, and is a bounty hunter. Her mission in life is to find her sister. Elaphi lives in a village just beyond the desert, and came to Gem following her sister's trail when she bumped into you guys. She has a cut going through one eye, and keeps it covered with her hair.
She wears a brown leather jacket on top of a black spaghetti strap shirt and always wears the pearl necklace her mother gave her.
Sure!!
(Oh her Talisman can call people back but that was already avoided sooo)
"I-I don't know.." Lilly whispered, slightly scared,and watched the girl lay in Reyna's arms. Just then, another sound came from behind them, and they glanced back and saw a girl with Ombre hair (Elaphi).
(sorry about that, feel free to add it in anywere)
Macha raised herself weakly so that she could see the strange newcomer, but quickly fell to her knees again as a bright pain flared through her and the golden runes on her arms appeared again, flashing.
"Who are you…?", she managed to croak, pushing her thick white hair out of her face with trembling hands. On her wrist, the golden beads glinted.
(Oh, and @Celestial-B and @Madi_da_Mome, do your characters have wings?)
(Mine doesn't ;D)
(Elaphi's wings were cut off by the person who kidnapped her sister, so she couldn't follow)
I was sprinting out of a maze of jagged rocks when I was nearly blinded by a searing white light, harsh even through my tinted goggles. Shielding my eyes with my pearl hands, I was barely able to make out a glowing girl levitating a few feet off the ground, wings folded behind her. She dropped to the ground, and a little voice in the back of my head telling me to run over and see if she was ok. I was so fixated in this strange apparition that I failed to notice a group of others staring at me. "Who are you..?" The voice seemed to slap me in the face as if sending me back into reality. I slamed my back into the flat side of one of the jagged rocks.
Macha got to her feet, swaying slightly. Voice shaking, she shouted in he direction of the girl, who was now hidden in the maze of rocks just 20 metres from the flat surface of the cliff they were standing on.
"Show yourself!" She looked to Reyna for strength.
Damn re-reading this brings me back to the times when this was like the only rp around
