the past catches up [closed/social]

"Now if only I had a million bucks, instead of looking like one..." Orion smirked, before chuckling to himself. No matter what occasion it may be, seeing an old guild mate should still be a happy occasion, unless of course they've done something wrong. Orion remembered Cheshire, and truth-be-told, he was quite fond of the girl. She had been one of the non-talkative ones, but that never flew well when Orion was around. He'd get them talking, sooner or later.
"You're doing well, as well," Orion commented, taking another look at his old guild mate. She had definitely moved past Cait Shelter, whose missions really did not pay as well as most would hope for. "Which guild were you now hooked up to?" He genuinely did not know. Nobody told him anything, except for the fact that she had chosen to leave, which was her right.
Maybe one day Orion might choose to leave Cait Shelter. Maybe one day, he would be forced to leave because of a circumstance out of his control. But then again, he owed a lot to Cait Shelter, and he could never see himself leaving. Yet, as Cheshire proved, not everyone felt that way. He couldn't blame them. A better was a better life, and not one single person can deny that they've never wished for it. "I hope they're treating you well there! Do they have good booze?" Orion grinned, he was always eager to learn of new alcoholic concoctions around the country. Since The Calamity, there had been a shortage of good brewers. Something that needed to be rectified.

It took a few moments, hours it felt like, but quite literally only a few minutes until the wyvern passed by overhead. Orion could feel his heart racing as the wyvern made its last screech over the horizon. A mage's life was quite dangerous, always living on the edge. Orion felt a pang in his chest as he thought about his mother, and her life as a mage supporting just the two of them. It must've been like this. Filled with fear, of the dangers that lurked around every corner, of a life that's fleeting.
Shaking his head, Orion pushed himself up from his position. He needed to keep going. The journey was quite far, since the Ajedrez heir was actually able to beat back some of the attacks by the Yetis. Their group had pushed on for quite awhile, before being overwhelmed. The heir, apparently, had left his group to die as he escaped by himself. Orion couldn't help but feel disgusted. But money was money, and he wasn't one to turn down a job that will pay for his meals.

There was one thing Orion knew, and it was that he did not want to fight anything here. It wasn't that he was afraid, but more so the fact that if he didn't need to cause himself trouble, why would he? The Yetis were fine, some of the dragonic being were also pretty chill, as long as they don't see Orion. It was easy...for the most part.
Most of the creatures in the area were large, and were easy to see from afar. The wyverns are easily heard, with their roars echoing aloud. There was nothing Orion had to fear, except for his own stupidity.
With a huff, Orion continued on his trek. The snow was starting to fall, and he needed to find a cave of some sort for shelter. A screech. "Fuck," Orion cursed, before laying himself flat onto the ground, making himself blend into the still-rocky environment with his dark garbs. He was not going to be wyvern chum today.

A Family Heirloom [Mission/Solo]
Sept 2, 2019 1:13:52 GMT
edited on Sept 2, 2019 1:24:46 GMT by Orion Prima
MISSION NAME: A Family Heirloom CLIENT: Ajedrez Family CHARACTERS: Orion Prima MISSION BRIEFING: The Ajedrez Family heir had ventured into the Stalagmite Wastes in search for some hidden treasure of some kind. However, as his party slowly made their way deeper into the area, they were attacked by Yetis and other creatures. The heir was able to escaped, but in his wake, he had left the Ajedrez Ceremonial Sword, which is considered priceless by the family. Find the sword, and return it safely to the Ajedrez family.
Orion did not usually take solo missions. In fact, he liked the company of people. It made missions more fun in his opinion. This is owing to the fact that with the reduced population after The Calamity, most of everywhere had been reclaimed by nature. Just like the Stalamite Wastes, the world felt barren.
"Now, where did those airheads trek towards again?" Orion sighed to himself, his scowl deepening as he read the mission parameters once again. The Ajedrez heir was a buffoon of a man to try and bring an expedition into this place. Hell, they didn't even have a single high-tier mage with them!
"North it is, Orion rolled up the paper and placed it in his pocket. The cold had started to batter onto him, so he made sure to bundle himself up accordingly. "This is going to suck.

Storm front [closed/social]

Orion had just finished one of his fishing trips, just him, by himself, alone, not with anybody. He sighed, "Stupid guildmates. Don't they know how fun fishing can be." Usually, he was accompanied by the brother of the guild master, a cat, who loves fish too much. Having company was never bad, in fact, Orion always welcomed the company. But the mages seemed more preoccupied with running missions as of late.
That reminded him, he needed to get started with missions as well. The sand caressing his feet said otherwise, however. No matter what anyone says, the beach was truly a sight to behold. Once a bustling port town, this place had all disintegrated into chaos. But he wasn't worried, his stature scared most of the petty thieves.
The crashing of the waves made him turn his head. The sky was blue, and the sun reflected fiercely on the blue sea. It was a perfect day. One he had enjoyed with a fishing rod in hand, and a can of beer in another. Orion thought better to smoke while fishing. It was the only activity he would not smoke while doing, since the last time he did, he had accidentally set fire to the small boat he had rented. Nope, definitely no more smoking after that.
Chuckling, he was about to turn towards the port town, before spotting something on the horizon. It looked like a fish for a second...a huge fish. It was headed towards the part of the shore where jagged rocks were protruding quite haphazardly. Orion watched for a moment as the mermaid seemed to be in a rush, as though being chased by something. There, behind her, a dragon-like figure.
Mermaid. Dragon.
Orion abandoned his plans and quickly ran towards the girl. He wasted no time, and his fast pace almost made him trip- but he caught himself before continuing his run. Wading through the cold water, he felt his movement slow down, the waves pushing him back towards the shore. He fought it hard, teeth gritted as he stretched out his arms. Almost there!
"Grab on!" Orion shouted at the mermaid, his free hand outstretched, watching the serpent-like creature nearing its intended target. The Lightning God Slayer was afraid of using his magic, especially since it had a high chance of hurting the girl as well, so he made do with throwing the bucket of fish he was still holding at it, "Get a load of this, you sea snake!" He didn't have time to see if his bucket of fish had hit the creature, focusing instead on helping the mermaid to safety.

"Just so you know, this" Orion gestured to his body, flexing his barely covered abs and pecs, "is not for sale." He stood there for a moment, calmly staring at the stranger, before chuckling loudly. He just couldn't stop himself, the opportunity was laid out in front of him! Without thought, he slowly followed the stranger. He liked him, he had a sense of humour. Not many had these days.
When asked the question of fun, he had no answer. There really wasn't much to do in Rhyolite. It was a village, filled with people doing what they can to survive each passing day. Before the Calamity, there might have been something fun to do. Now, it's all about survival.
"Nothing much to be honest," Orion shrugged as he continued his path behind the man, "I like to watch the clouds." He paused for a moment, before chuckling, "If you like drinking, I know the best place in the village."

You encourage/influence her toward... both? or neither? This will be harder since Kibi is convinced she can only have one.
I like this one! I think if they met, Orion might give her advice on what to do about having two sides, like he might prod her about what's bugging her, and he'll give her some advice as to how to deal with having a "darker" side. God knows Orion has to keep his darker and more violent side when it comes to working alongside, or even meeting Quatro Cerberus members. Maybe she can even change his mind about QC members being all bloodthristy and evil! What do you think? Maybe Orion might even teach her some mind exercises to help out with her "dark" side!

I think the first time Orion sees Sovereign, he'd make fun of his mask. Orion is...just too rowdy sometimes...I'm not sure if he'd know Sovereign was the new guild master of QC, but with his current hate towards that guild, he's definitely not shy to admit it to Sovereign. OF course, he's also not one to pick fights when he knows he's still a mage trying to find his way...

Orion had to do a double-take, as he found himself talking to Cheshire. It had been a while, too long in his own opinion, since he last saw her. He was out training, he remembered. He was still discovering his magic, learning the intricacies of god slaying, green in everything magic, when she had left. He had to learn about it from his guild master, which left a pang of sadness in his chest.
"Hey, you..." Orion wasn't sure how to go about this. He was a great conversationalist when it comes to really fun, exciting, and even stupid things. He can talk about the weather like there was no tomorrow, but more emotional interactions were not his forte.
He shifted, feeling awkward for the first time in his life. He wasn't like this. He was Orion. He was never awkward. "So, uh, how's life treating you?" He tentatively started, "When I heard you left, I, uh, was pretty disappointed in losing a...friend, yes, a friend." Orion scratched the back of his head, while sporting a small grin.

It has been quite a while since Orion even had a chance to just sit idly. For the past few years, he's immersed himself with the book he had found. God Slaying Magic was a caster-type that simply was hard to learn, but he knew it would all be worth it. Through fire and brimstone, he would emerge a better mage. One that would not fail. Not anymore. Not after his mother...
Shaking himself, the young mage looked around the village he had called home. Well, close to a home as he'll ever have. The people, species of various kinds, milled about. Some with purpose, others aimlessly. But everyone seemed to be living their lives as best that they could. From his spot on a random roof, feet dangling on the ledge, he could see most of everything around the center of the village. It was his favourite spot. One that he used to share with his mother.
A small puff of his cigarette. A sigh of boredom. And a familiar face. Orion looked to his left, and saw a figure making their way around the village. His eyesight failed him, not being able to see the face of the person clearly, but they seemed familiar. Orion couldn't pin-point it, but the nagging was there, in the back of his mind. There was a familiarity with the gait, and the way they held themselves.
Curious, Orion dropped down from his spot, and briskly walked towards the person. He almost caught up to them, before saying, "Hey, buddy!" Orion had his hand up in a wave, as well as a show of non-hostility, "Can I have a moment?"

Orion was bored. Bored out of his mind as he tried his best not to yawn for the thirteenth time in the past hour. He was new to this mage-type profession, and was slowly getting warmed up after the first few missions he had been in. They were all simple, and despite despising each one internally, he knew he had to slowly make his way up. Practice made perfect, after all.
The forest felt calm today, which was a plus during his day off. Usually he would be out exploring the ruins of cities and town that were scattered around the area, remnants of the old kingdoms that were shattered and broken after The Calamity. He liked seeing what life was like before, and maybe even find a treasure or three. Nothing like that today, however.
A man, not older than himself, was just in front of his carefully planned-out route. Orion knew that Rhyolite had seen its fair-share of visitors and peddlers, but there was something about the way the man walked that felt different compared to the peddlers he had met. He needed to be a bit more careful with this one.
"Hey," Orion called out, his hand held high waving, "heading to the village, buddy?"

Definitely! I can see Koji admonishing Orion every time he sees the man drinking and smoking, but truth be told, Orion does enjoy the scolding, it's endearing for a man who grew up in a broken household...we need to set these two up for a social thread of some kind just talking about "the future"?
