Just a friendly warning. If you are going away or taking too long we're gonna skip ya. LET'S GET MOVING PEOPLE!

CLAIRE VANDALINE I'LL WORSHIP LIKE A DOG AT THE SHRINE OF YOUR LIES I'LL TELL YOU MY SINS AND YOU CAN SHARPEN YOUR KNIVES OFFER ME THAT DEATHLESS DEATH GOOD GOD LET ME GIVE YOU MY LIFE Even wrapped in a thick robe the cold of Frost bit through her clothing and made her thermals seem like they had been nothing but skin clothing. Decoration. With the temperature so low she'd chosen to walk and let her eagle flay around to keep itself warm. She'd chosen to catch a life on her rideback configured specifically for ice and snow, it's engine blaring off the icy mountains in the distance with her trusty scope goggles the only thing keeping the snow from frosting her eyes shut. It was the middle of a snowstorm it felt like and the wind was as unforgiving at it was constant. Just one big howling dervish that could have easily been mistaken for a feral beast int he distance or perhaps right behind waiting to snap it's jaws shut on the next warm throat. That paranoia plus the constant jarring dunes of the land kept Claire PAINFULLY erect in her seat with her head on a swivel. Wired with energy shots and a little hit of a flask back at her base of operation to keep her belly warm, there was hope yet she'd make it through the storm. Snow so thick you could hardly make out the hand in front of one's face. It was everywhere, a world whitewashed with powder and dust, a slate blasted blank and she was just racing against hope to outrun the oblivion. Another whipping gust swept up under her rideback and she flipped over, bike tumbling end over end while she landed face down in the snow. She lost her map with the bike that tumbled several dozen feet into the distance. Her compass too. The bike swiftly devoured by the mindful beast that roared in the distance and covered the world in snow. "Oh fuck me..." No way her eagle would hear her whistle in this storm either.

[Necromancer of the West]

Something was off. Rael was in the Leaf Village doing errands and now, its so cold. Chilled to the bone, a visible shudder made the pale man rub his lithe arms together. The snow that was present was blinding, biting at Rael’s skin. He needed to find shelter. He began to trudge through the storm looking for a cave, or even a shack. A strong gust of wind knocked him over on his arse, Rael screamed bloody murder. He wanted to scream for help, but that was unbecoming of man such as himself. “Is anyone out there!” He screamed into the howling wind. He knew his voice would die in a matter of seconds, but one could hope.

His mind was racing to how and why he was transported to this area. Did someone summon him? Rael couldn’t fathom who would want him yet. He has yet to accomplish anything. Teeth chattering, hair now frosted over with layers of ice, Rael collapsed onto the ground, but with one final breathe, he let out a scream. “Help!” His voice was hoarse and desperate. Unconscious took him over. The cold was too much for him.

[Kyogi]

Kyogi had taken a nap atop the roof of his house. Somehow a particularly large bird had made it's way into the village and decided to take Kyogi for a trip. Kyogi also slept like a rock despite being taken in the claws of this bird and flown at high speeds through the air. It was only when things got considerably colder did Kyogi's eyes snap open and notice that he now had a strange moving bed. This is new he mused to himself taking in the bird and claws that contained him.

How long had he been traveling he was unsure but the bird had started to fly lower to the ground and that was his chance. Gathering a bit of chakra into his right fist Kyogi sent two consecutive jabs to each of the claws holding him. It wasn't enough to kill this giant bird but certainly enough to open the claws which seemed like a better idea in his head. Quickly descending Kyogi landed in snow. Suddenly a lot colder than he appreciated Kyogi looked around hearing a fairly close cry for help. Perhaps many birds had brought people here. While rushing to the location Kyogi gathered his own chakra creating a layerof chakra that surrounded him. It turns out a black shirt, pants and sandals were not ideal winter wear but with his medical technique he could survive for several hours out here.

It was then that Kyogi found the unconscious body. This person seemed just about as prepared as he was. Summoning more of his energy Kyogi placed his hands on the person's head pushing his chakra into them creating the same layer of chakra to hopefully keep them warm. Once it seemed to coat their body Kyogi tried to sit them up snapping a few times, "Hey you're gonna be okay though we probably shouldn't stay here long."

Atmospheric Control
Rank: "B"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: User can create a sustaining outer layer of chakra over a target's body allowing them to withstand harsh environments without suffering consequences.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: The user touches a target or themselves after focusing Chakra within the palm of their hands. When touched the Chakra covers the target's body creating a self sustaining outer layer chakra skin that is stronger than normal which shields the target from dangerous levels of atmospheric extremes such as colds and heat. While under the effect of the technique the user is adaptable to the outside climate and can withstand harsh climate controls. Ever seen a man walk out in the harsh snow without succumbing to the effects of hypothermia, or perhaps ever seen a man walking out in the hot desert without undergoing heatstroke or Hyperthermia. With this technique, a user is able to walk around in the hot sun, or walk through intense heat without problems, as well as walking around butt naked through the icy colds. This does not mean the user is immune to ice or fire. A user can be frozen, or completely burned, however the effects of freezing to death with intense cold, or having a heatstroke does not apply. The duration of the Jutsu lasts for 5 hours per Class Level.
Limit: Must be a Medical Doctor.

The water was colder here... The wind chilled my gills even under the thick and salt crusted sea coat I had over myself. My pale grey and blue skin in the weather made me seemed like some sort of frost bitten zombie. Deep scars across my rough sharkskin hidden under a cloaked hood and a red bandanna that covered my face. A crude and menacing threading ran through the cloth rising and falling in jagged mountains forming sharks teeth. Each step I took across the ground left the thudding of heavy boots and the jingle of a cutlass inside it's holster. 

Why was I hear...? "need to check the manifest." I said aloud in my drowned voice. Deep as the depths they sank to. I pulled a large scroll parcel from my back and slowly pulled out the parchment. Ancient salted vellum, worn and torn, charged with ancient magics. My eyes searched the pages. 

Chelsea Elono - 24 - Botswain - Curly hair, mousy face, short. 
Nikko Estancia - 31 - Mate- Broad shoulders, missing a finger.
Olliver Stephens -21 Mate - Slim figured, Red hair.
Raphael Frazier - 19 - Cabin Boy 

"Raphael.... Your name is in my list..." I said as I let my voice hang in the air. He was here. He would die. My eyes looked around as I started my search.

CLAIRE VANDALINE I'LL WORSHIP LIKE A DOG AT THE SHRINE OF YOUR LIES I'LL TELL YOU MY SINS AND YOU CAN SHARPEN YOUR KNIVES OFFER ME THAT DEATHLESS DEATH GOOD GOD LET ME GIVE YOU MY LIFE Unsure of what was to come of this situation Claire looked up to catch sight of a ghostly figure. Instinctual she reached for her back, found nothing and her eyes flickered open wind. Oh. Fuck. Everything was back in the rideback it seemed. Luckily she had prepared for things like this before and, with her eyes on the thing, summoned her quiver with it's array of bolts and her crossbow with a seal she'd had placed many months back.The weight of it in her hands was relaxing but a cry in the snow had her attention. "Oh come on..." AND people needed help? She notched a bolt into the bow and began to walk with her back to the cry sh ehad heard, her eyes glowing with light as she extended her powers into a holy blessing. Her claim? Undead. Her bolt began to glow with benediction. Presuming the thing was within her sphere of influence she made a claim to pronounce it's weakness and should the thing fail a will save of 26 or have it's weakness be declared her bolts. It could go on for hours. Greater Bane for an additional 20 damage against undead. Her bolt was practically on fire with buffs. As she backed up she nearly tripped over the two behind her and she hissed taking a quick glance backward. "Watch it, there's a ghost here." Dark Claim marked them with Malice if they failed the 26 will save and she could know where they were at all times, lost total concealment and a few judgement boosts to up her damage plus 5, hr firing distance up 15 meters. Her goggles clicked, zoomed, she aimed.... *Thock!* She fired for the head and reached for another of the 100+ bolts in her quiver and fired them off rapid speed. The bow quivered with her speed, four arrows in one movement, one at the head, three center mass (wait.. ghost have no mass...) all blessed, screaming through the air. Within 10 meters she could preform a sneak attack as well as boost her damage output by 48 per arrow. She fired again... and again... raining hell on this thing's unlife till it was ready to decide it was ready to return to the afterlife. If it failed the will saves? She'd have her divine blessing to make them reroll and reconsider this plan of existence.

[Necromancer of the West]

Warmth. That was what Rael was feeling. A foreign chakra washed over his form and began to shroud himself from the fervor of the snowstorm. He slowly sat up in the snow and looked at his savior. A silverette was his savior. Rael grinned at the male before him, and locked his own amber eyes with the liquid silver eyes. “Thank you for rescuing me from such conditions!” Rael tentatively reached for the other male’s skin, wanting to feel warmth from another source besides the shroud. If the other man would allow him too, he would grasp the male with his own frigid hands. “My name is Rael, what is the name of my beautiful savior?”

A figure, or a shade, came before them and placed something in the snow. It was a potion? Rael didn’t know what was in the vial and reached for it. “Why would a shade give out a potion?” The question was said out loud but was more rhetorical in nature. There was another body approaching them, and soon, a female was with them, stating there were ghosts around.

“Indeed there is. A ghost just gave me a potion. Are we…are we in haunted grounds?” Rael thought he was done with cursed lands. He ignored the arrows the woman was shooting and contemplated the chance of  ghosts haunting the grounds. But there was another man yelling at his savior. Something about trust?

[Kyogi]

Kyogi gave the man a quizical look before snatching up the three flat canisters he'd inspect them later. His friends, family or leaders wer eno where to be found but perhaps if they did magically appear it would be suspicious. There seemed to be more important things to focus on though. His attention drew to a girl who nearly backed into them before firing off several bolts at something she'd identified as a ghost.

Kyogi smiled at the thanks though he was a bit surprised that his hands were taken by the man known as Rael. "Err no problem, names Kyogi" Kyogi decided to ignore the remark it was not the first time he'd heard such compliments. Pulling his hands away from Rael Kyogi stood "It seems this storm hides many things. A bird dropped me off here..err rather I freed myself from said bird above this place."


Looking to the female firing bolts Kyogi asked "Did you get it?" Could ghosts even be got? A voice lingered in the air perking his ears up. Raphael was not a name he was familiar with but Kyogi spoke aloud, "Who goes there?"

[Necromancer of the West]

This all seemed strangely familiar to Rael. He didn’t know what this thing in the snow before him was and it didn’t seem like it held value. He decided to leave it in the snow. Kyogi :Kyogi, such an elegant name!” Rael was over the top and introductions in a foreign land was no exception. “I am not sure how I came here. All I saw was twisting colors and then I was here. I have seen this once before…no..it can’t be…” His eyes grew wide and he stumbled back and fell onto the snow. His memories recalled to last year.

Was this another puppet show as last year? That means anything was possible at this point. At this realization, Rael jumped up and took guard, eyes now narrow trying to pierce into the snow. “Kyogi stand guard. These grounds aren’t haunted. It is something else. This was proven as a strange man screamed and went towards the woman and tried to inject something in her before leaving from a portal.” But he also knew something good could happen, but more than likely something odd would happen.

“Anything can happen at this point. I don’t know why, but take my word!”

[Kyogi]

Again more strange gear was found. This time an empty bottle that Kyogi inspected turning it around in his hand. Why was there an empty bottle here? Perhaps he could learn more about it back in sound. Looking around the girl before them spoke of a ghost and fired many bolts but perhaps it was simply her eyes deceiving her in this snow storm. His technique lasted many hours but they couldn't just stay here forever the cold always wins. "Where do you come from Rael. I'm from sound."

Rael warned Kyogi to be on his guard so he placed his goggles over his eyes flipping on their thermal lenses to scan the area. For now he simply saw the few he already recognized. "Have you been here before Rael, a few screaming men isn't out of the norm. We should probably try to get out of this storm."

Description: This is a form of a capacitor consisting of a glass jar lined inside and out with metal foil and having a conducting rod connected to the inner foil lining and passing out of the jar through the insulated stopper. Mithral and Platinum wiring is used to be pressed onto the outside of the bottle and sealed in place with an alchemical fixative. Users have learned how to store Jutsus in a Leyden Jutsu Bottle using the Magnetic Jutsu Bottle Binding Ritual. The Jutsu effect is released and triggered when the bottle is broken or the metal rod in the stopper is completely depressed. The Leyden Jutsu Bottle can typically be thrown like a Grenade, or used as a trap by getting an opponent to depress a trigger or force it to break. These are too fragile to fire from a cannon and too large to fire from a bow/crossbow/sling. However, they may be fired from a catapult or affixed to the end of a ballista bolt. Cost of Jutsu in a Bottle along with % chance of finding is dependent on the Type of Jutsu. Please look at Leyden Jutsu Bottle Table for more Information.

[Necromancer of the West]

Something strange happened once more. Rael should be used to it by now after last year but he wouldn’t be able to cope so soon, especially if stranger things happen. A random man, in worse wear than himself popped out of the snow and screamed at the two males. The green clad man spinned with his sword into the air and vanished. But something fell from his belt pouch into the snow. Rael picked up the satchel and looked inside. His eyes widen at the jewels and accepted this token from the strange green man.

“I come from Hi no Kuni. Mother and Father were travelers merchant and a librarian. Yourself, Kyogi?” He left his statement closed off not wanting to get into his family issues. “I have not been here before. But I have had similar events happen to me last year. Like I have said before, expect the worst. Somethings may benefit you, but more than likely, something bad will happen. I have seen giant lizard things attack us before. Just be careful.” He had to be nice, if the rules were the same as last year, he would need some sort of help.

[Kyogi]

Another empty bottle.. Kyogi did not inspect this one as deeply as he had the last but simply pocketed it. A strange man seemed to fly off into the sky only by his sword but dropped a bag near Rael which he retrieved. Something good must have been in it as the boys eyes widened in surprised.

Rael went on about how this had happened before last year, "So this is normal to you? I have been in my village for a few years so I can't say I'm familiar with these occurances." His family? Rael asked about memories flooding back into his mind. "Erm.. it's easiest to say we don't talk much these days. I'm pretty self dependent. But worry not about lizards or the such aside from my medical skills I think of myself as a decent fighter." Kyogi jabbed the air not that he was itching for a fight but it had been sometime since he'd used those skills.

A book belonging to a child. It pulled me from the haze for just a moment. The snow was everywhere, it was cold. People were babbling about trinkets it would seem. Ghosts and strange beasts seemed to walk across these surface worlds easily. I glared at just how malleable reality was. I moved closer to the strangers that seemed to be talking. My gills flaring under my cloak, these people were dangerous. Armed to the teeth it would seem. I knew enough to know that people didn't need weapons to kill people, but they sure helped. 

"I'm here looking for Raphael Frazier." I barked out to the group.

[She of the Mighty Bow-Gun]

CLAIRE VANDALINE I'LL WORSHIP LIKE A DOG AT THE SHRINE OF YOUR LIES I'LL TELL YOU MY SINS AND YOU CAN SHARPEN YOUR KNIVES OFFER ME THAT DEATHLESS DEATH GOOD GOD LET ME GIVE YOU MY LIFE Lofting a brow it seemed the thing had disappeared completely and left Claire with a sense of unease. It felt good to finally use these powers, these divine gifts, for some kind of good rather than letting them grow stale with age. She'd began this journey on the cusp of teenage-hood and now she was teetering on an adult. Time flew. Twisting around on her heel she appraised the two men but quickly caught sight of a third one lurching up up out of the snowdrifts around them. Clair notched a bolt but kept herself calmed and steady before shaking her head at the two men. "Can we exchange pleasantries later when we aren't standing in the iciest part of Hell? Also, watch out for that creep." Her chin jut at the third man with his gills and scarf and... maybe a little tighter grip on her bow. "And I'm trying not to freeze my tits off." She shot a dry and humorless smile at the third man and pointed behind her. My Rideback crashed a few feet away but it has all my stuff and once I ge tit I can point is towards a lodge I know is up around here we can take refuge in."

[Necromancer of the West]

Rael hated this. He was at the whim of whatever power was out there. He quickly turned around, thinking he saw a man. There was a shiver that crawled down his spine, that wasn’t from the snowstorm. But something felt off in his pocket. He grabbed something that he could not recognize and was confused on what it did, but he returned his focus to Kyogi and responded in kind. “This is definitely not normal. I do not know why this happens, but a higher power is teasing us with tricks, gifts, and even threats. It is annoying not being in control of the situation, but you have to make due till this so called magic ends. It lasted a while so let us get somewhere that isn’t here in the storm.”

Seeing the brief pause and the reluctance, Rael assumed his family was a sore subject. “At least you weren’t forced to kill your own parents.” Rael shrugged his shoulders and said his statement with indifference. “Oh? Another medic? I am in the process of learning medical powers. I wouldn’t go as far to say that I am a Medic. More of a spur of the moment healer. I have yet to train properly to defend myself properly. I admit that I am…squishy.” This was good. At least there was one person who could defeat something if anything happens to spawn around them.

Edit:

"Yes! My dear! I apologize for ignoring you. But this enchanting man before me caught my eye, please forgive me!" Rael did a small bow and turned to face her. "Do you know a way out of this frozen hell?"  Rael glanced at the new comer who looked a bit rough. Was he a spawn? He seemed crazy enough to be one.

They were ignoring me. Disgusting. I walked closer to them, my rubber boots crunching the frost and snow under my feet as I walked towards them. My eyes shark like and fierce gazing at the group. I felt a strange weight in my pocket. Smoke pellets had formed inside of my coat... Had I left these here myself? Perhaps. Once in a past life. One I lived before the drowning. The manifest had brought me here. The manifest never lied. The ink on this parchment was the blood trail that I would track across every ocean. 

"His name is on the Manifest. Where is the boy?" I said urgently stepping towards the party. 

[Madame Loki]

((LONG POST sorry. Only really important part is the last couple of paragraphs.))


As the lot of them did what they could to adjust and make their way in the blizzard. There would be the sounds of laughter coming from within the blizzard itself. The laughter increased in volume, and some that laughter was accompanied by two figure. One was a dark haired women, with the Sharigan in her eyes. She was seemingly dressed in rags. Loki was not dress as flamboyant as she usually tended to be. There was no need for it, having a low profile was best at the moment. However on her left arm was Her Witch wood Shoulder piece, and while it formed into a elegant green dress, she had used her glamour skills to make it appear as the rags that she was now in. She did the same with the two witch wood armbands as well, and each of them she had Energy gems embedded(Sound, Cold).

Over her right wrist were 4 deep pocketed half pouches put together to form a bracelet. Inside of the first of those Deep Pockets, were 10 Skadi's Cry grenades. In the 2nd was 20 Weep Witch Grenades. Third possessed 100 Diamonds, 100 Emeralds, 100 Sapphires, 100 Topaz gems. And the 4th was empty, likely used to hold any items necessary. Her trigger boots, which house Moderate Fire, and Lightning Energy Gem, and held the Toccatta and Nocturne guns from the Love is Blue Set. There was a Witch Watch draped around her neck held one a Goddess Cognition Chain. The Watch itself held the gems of Goddess' Wisdom, The Skull of the Might, Tear of Raijin, and a Nightmare Orb.

The Sun's renewal ritual, was place around her belly button. Up the left side of her body there was also the a Soul Guard Seal, and on over her right breast was the Simbul's Conversion Seal, all disguised as Tattoos, if they could be seen through her clothing.Crown of Magic appeared on her head, she had been transformed into a hood that flowed into her clothing as she used her Wicked Weaves to lock it down. The crown housed a retractable visor that functions as sniper goggles that held, Anti-Flash Lenses, Zooming Vision(x100 zoom), Canny Descrier, X-Ray Vision, Condition Viewing Vision, Camera Vision x1, Thermal Vision x1. Floating on the side of her as she moved through the blizzard was her Mystletainn, staff.

The other figure chasing after her, with a smile equally big on his face seemed to be an even younger male. The two of them looked as if they could be siblings, the male stood at about 5'10 in height. The younger male, was also in rather casual clothing, considering the storm they were in. This was Jormungandr, and his red sharigan eyes flashed in the white snowy field as well. He held the same ritual seals on his body, aside from the Black sun seal, and he also had a Witch watch in his pocket, it held, Goddess' Wisdom, Gem of Prescience, Tear of Raijin, Nightmare Charm, Matter Gem, Doolittle Gem. He had a Goddess's cognition Chain, on his necck that held a Spellbinders Gem. He had two Earrings, with where Energy gems(Acid, Sound). ON his wrist was a bracelet, that held the Fire and Cold Energy gems. And on his belt was the Lightning Energy gem.

Hidden on his person was his Paradise Lost Dagger Set. All 9 dagger hidden away, neatly on his person. The two of them laughed as she moved through the blizzard without much care in the world. They began to hurl Snow balls at each other through, treating the blizzard as if it was just any other day. Jormungandr's smiled faded for a moment, as he saw a group up ahead. Loki saw his look and then turn to look at the group. As Loki stared at them Jormungandr walked up next to his mother. The two of them simply stood there like spirits in the snow, as Loki tilted her head to the side and folded her arms. At the moment she was debating, whether they should go see who they were or just ignore them.
