Game Summary: Characters are taken from their home world by a magical castle and put into the role of servants for a hedonistic lord while monsters run about. But there is much more than that going on, there is a war brewing from other parts of the world who know the lord is not doing his job at keeping the fog at bay. This fog turns people into monsters and would bring about a darkness and chaos when not kept in check. The characters can choose to just survive or try and find out more about the mysterious happenings, the people there and try and help save the world with what little power they have.

How long was your character in Game: 10 months our time, a week his time
History of Character in their Game: Luce had a very safe experience in the game over all, thanks to Asch the Bloody and Rei who became a paternal figures to the boy by protecting him from what could have happened, such as running into monsters. But there were times when he was able to wander away from the young man and go off and have his own adventures. The major ones being when he found the camp outside the castle and its lands of people trying to help those stuck under the Lord's rule where he found out about the story of the Fog and how the Lord was supposed to be keeping an eye on things. Which also lead Luce to looking for the King's children who had been kidnapped by the Lord. He was unable to find them, but he did find out they were safe.

Another night he found some magic flowers which gave him bird like features and the ability to slowly remember his past lives (as Luce Blancos and the others lives). Eventually though, Luce became curious about the library and went to go find it, where he found a book meant for the graveminders of the world, which lead him to wanting to put the ghosts of the castle to rest. But he was left with more questions than answers until he decided he should get some information and came to be judged himself. Luce figured if it was his job to judge his world one day from what he could figure out he should be brave enough to be judged. He was killed but judged as a good and interesting character. Once again, he was left with more questions on the state of the world he was in.

here is a link to his activity tracker for more details on his time there

How did they change from their canon personality wise (Please explain what caused it to happen?) Luce matured a little, as any child would given the more serious circumstances he was surrounded by (and it as only a week to him despite it being almost a year to the players). He became a little more open to talking to people and trying to connect with people instead of looking at things from the selfish-ness of a child.

How did they change from their canon physically (Please explain what caused it to happen?): Luce luckily has been saved from having too much damage done to him. But he still has had the changes happen. Luce has a set of spotted owl wings that are fully functional, along with the matching face markings.

Powers: Luce has a lot of suppressed power in him as part of the agreement in life three for peace. For those who can sense it, they could tell he has a great amount of power. Luce has no access to this in his current life.

But in a situation where his abilities happen to be accessible, he would be a powerhouse where the limit to his abilities are only limited by his imagination of what can and can not be. The Judge life for example only knew how to use the basic skills such as clairvoyance, telepathy and telekinesis. Lux had full access to the abilities but unwilling to use them, and the third life feared these abilities and thought they were a curse. This is due to Lux/Judge/Unknown/Luce's connection to the God of this world and being the God's Judgment.

Luce currently is able to have dreams of his past life, can fly a little with his wings, and make letters in their air using light-based fonon magic. Also he has a plush frog that glows in the dark and will lead him from danger.

Possessions: Blankets, a soft grey blanket, a basket, another bag, a trunk with the following inside of it.
a woolen cloak
Incense
Firepoker
two pair of cloudy green jammies

Tokens with a deerskull on them.
a few shiny stones, a crow feather
Charcoals (writing), crayons, pens, journals and papers
Frog has a cloak meant for a rich toddler, and now what looks like wizard gear for a toy.

Please provide three samples from your previous game, at least one will have to be third person with context:
Sample One: Luce at a magic show. Gets a magic potato thats just a normal potato.
Sample Two: Luce getting judged
Sample Three: Luce is small and angry and looking for missing people.

Notes: Due to Luce's age in the game, it was hard to keep longer threads going, so I am sorry for the shorter on in the last comment.

birdwingsandthings: (thinking)
Luce is small for his age, barely reaching 3'6", and is very thin. This is simply because he doesn't like to eat.

His hair is an extremely pale blonde and he has pink-violet eyes, he is also extremely pale himself. He gets sunburns very easily.

Often, he can be seen without shoes on.

While at Maison, he gained wings similar to that of a spotted owl, along markings along his face similar to that of the owl also.

Luce's adventures in the maze. Luce explores the maze as he eventually finds a tunnel leading to an old town in fog, in the tunnel was a cloak and some paper work from House Xathous. He collects a lot of things, where he eventually meets Oswald of House Brennan (gold and red, the Phoenix) who also serves the King (Purple and White/Dragon). Luce finds out Lord Leitner hasn't been playing nice with the other Lords. Marten draws out a picture of kids in cages for the man. Eventually Luce meets Glenn, Kir's brother.

This is where Luce finds out about The Sorrow.

Long long ago, when the world was new, there were twins born to sea, sky, and earth. One was Joy, and she was radiant and loved everything and was loved; one was Sorrow, and he was dark and quiet and feared. Joy touched all living things and brought them closer together; and as she grew brighter, Sorrow grew darker. He began to grow bitter at being in the dark to balance her light, jealous of how everyone loved her, and hateful of everything that was not his.
His hatred and bitterness became a curse, and that was how death began as he cursed life; but that was not enough for him, and he began to break and warp those that loved Joy. He took their fears and fed on them, then whispered words of hate and fear to them until they began to hate and fear as they did.
His black blood started to spread to other things, twisting them until they could no longer feel love or joy; and they became monsters that hated others for everything they lost.
As he grew in power, the Old Ones of power grew afraid and knew something had to be done - but that he could not be killed, for he was forever linked to his sister, and to the world.
The Old Ones had children who had inherited a part of their power who helped look after the world for them. Seven Old Ones gathered their greatest and bravest children and sent them to fight the Sorrow, to find a way to stop him from turning the whole world to hate and hurt.
They won, but as they could not kill him, they broke him into seven parts, and built magic living castles that would contain the pieces; and they gave up pieces of themselves to build the keeps, a price paid to protect the world.
They became known as the Storm Lords, and they were forever bound to each other.


Luce asked if that was the Gazebo and found out one of Letiner's ancestors was a Storm Lord. Tanny can not take over for the Leitner castle due to being a Phoenix, but can do Brenner's. There are other heirs.

Day 14
Finds a book with
Bodies are washed immediately before and immediately after death, in order to encourage the spirit to the womb of the world. The body is wrapped in red cloth for viewing by the family, and depending by the culture the body is then burned or entombed, with the ashes scattered to the winds. During the first week and all souls night every year thereafter, the family leaves lighted in the window a lantern. It is traditional on the death anniversary to leave offerings at the grave site of things the deceased was fond of, and for a lamp to be left lit in case they might wish to visit their family.

In the case where a body cannot be recovered, death offerings are still made and a grave is still prepared. An undertaker is often brought into the circle, and a light is left lit in the window of a house until the dead are recovered in order to guide the spirit back. If hair of the deceased can be found, then this will be burned and scattered, with all funerary rites observed.
in it along with The page appears to be discussing beings who are sustained by draining the life of others. It mentions something about disrupting immortality through several possible means:
Cut off their food source
Free existing victims
Remove the heart

If Luce were born on Earth, he would be of Nordic and Hispanic descent. Has very light blond, alomst white hair, extremely pale skin and pink-lavender eyes. He wears both glasses and hearing-aids (although at any given moment the aids might be turned off because Luce considers the world to be too noisy for him).

He grew up in the northern area of Sancia near one of the major port towns (Port of our Lady, now called Sword Harbors.

If one were to see his father, they could see they got his facial features from him, even if he did not get any of his coloring. Luce is small for his age, due to the fact he is a very picky eater, much preferring bland foods over foods with actual flavors, and even then he will not eat much. A list of things Luce will eat

He hates wearing shoes and will take them off at any given chance

For Maison- he gets paid 4 silver and 12 copper a week due to doing only 75 percent of his share of work.

Character: Luce Garza-Cresta
Canon: OC
Version: OC
Canon Point: Fourth life of my OC Luce Blancos
Age: 7
Gender: Male

History: For Luce's history, there are two things that needs to be focused on. One is this current life and the other is how his previous lives have affected him today.

This Life
Luce was born to a stripper and said stripper's one night stand. His father Eduardo Cresta, was a 20 something year old stripper who found this to be an easy job to get quick cash, after all his parents was still letting him live at home and he wanted to save up to get the hell out of the city he lived in. Eduardo was having fun until one night one of his patrons, Ellisif, charmed him into her bed. A year later she came back to him, to talk serious business. She thought she could raise the child from their union on her own, but honestly could not. So, before putting the child up for adoption she was going to ask Eduardo if he wanted to care for the child. The man agreed and took Luce on, not questioning if the boy was his or not. When he went in for Luce's 3 month check up, Eduardo found out his son was deaf, when he contacted Luce's biological mother, it turned out she had meningitis while pregnant and didn't think anything of it. Even though she was trying to stay out of the lives of her one night stand and son, she did offer to wire some money over to help cover anything extra, such as insurance. To this day Eduardo and Ellisif maintain a almost business like relationship.

So Eduardo did his best to raise his son with his parents helping to try and provide a stable life. Eduardo decided to try and be home more move to camming to try and get extra money. By the time Luce was 3, Eduardo was able to afford his own apartment and moved out of his parents house. Eduardo had picked a nicer neighborhood near a specialty school for children like Luce so he was happily settling down. That is until one day he was getting breakfast and met a cop who regularly stopped by the shop. Eduardo started to get to know the officer. Officer Sebastian Garza fell for the man who kept on getting to know him and eventually started to flirt back. By the time Luce was 4, Eduardo and Sebastian had wedded and Luce was not too excited about having a step-father.

When Luce was five, he started going to school. The school, being the reason why Eduardo moved to the area in the first place was a school for the Deaf where Luce was submersed in language so he could focus on communicating. Even with his hearing aids, everything sounded like static to him which he hated eventually deciding to just not to wear them. Sebastian and Eduardo did their best to get him used to the hearing aids, knowing the doctor did say it would be hard for him to adjust to them. To this day, Luce is still doing his best not to wear them despite his fathers' efforts. At the age of 6, his fathers decided to try and expand the family and are currently working on adopting a sibling set. One of the girls being in her teens and the other being around his age, Luce is scared that the adoption will make it where he will no longer be loved as much.

His life has been average though, Eduardo keeps his job on the low-down, telling Luce that he works at a bar at night and Luce knows that Ellisif is his biological mother. He can't find it in him to care because he doesn't know her.

Now for the past lives which influence him.

Before this life, Luce had three other lives. The first life was a man named 'Lux', a man who was created simply to observe the world they lived on and figure out if the population was good or bad. A judge sent by the God of Krana. He was shunned and hated, until a hunter named Terra came and helped take care of him. Terra helped calm down Lux as he started to see the ugly parts of the world.

Eventually Lux died and was reborn as Joshua Garza who was kidnapped by the church of Sancia due to his budding psychic powers and renamed Luce Blancos. He was given this name due to his extremely pale complexion and looks. The Second life was know to the public as The Judge while Luce suffered through the cult abuse, anger and self hatred building up inside of him until Abel Ramos came into the picture as someone to help him. Eventually he formed a romantic relationship with the other man. Unfortunately, in that era homosexuality was considered a sin and Abel was executed for the crime of leading an important church figure astray. Luce eventually found Abel's body and the years of abuse, finally leading to a Carrie-esque deconstruction of the Church of Sancia, leading a one man mission to wipe the faith that took Abel from him off the face of Krana.

Eventually the Judge burnt himself out and died, cold and alone.

The third life though was smart. He started to figure out the puzzle of who Lux and the Judge was and made a decision. He didn't want to suffer like the previous two lives did, so he found a witch who he made a deal with. That he would get a life free of suffering, but in exchange he would have to give up something of great importance. The man agreed to anything, the witch knowing the man's love for birdsong, said she would take his hearing. The man thought it was the same hearing that Lux, himself and the Judge had, but still found it to be fair.

The man did not go deaf, and he also suffered the fates of his previous two lives. He was curious and judgmental, he was angry and lashed out. Eventually he figured he would never have peace and killed himself. But because of that, Luce (the forth life) got the peace in exchange for the hearing.

Personality:
Luce is very curious as one would expect of a child (Due to Lux's nature also of being a curious being to Judge the world of Krana), he has a lot of suppressed anger , which he doesn't know where it comes from (it comes from his second life, and the injustices committed against him and Abel). This means as he is growing more and more of their influences will mix in with this life's development. Luce is confused to where a lot of the feelings come from because he has been told what is normally expected.

He is attached emotionally to very few people, his fathers, his grandparents and his stuffed toys. This is partially influenced by the second life's influence wanting to make up for the lack of emotional support from that life's growing up, and also fear that he might be replaced soon even though it is nothing more than a childish, irrational fear. When he is with strangers he is standoffish.Luce prefers to keep a small circle of people he knows around him.

Luce is involved with Deaf culture, which values a blunt and honest approach to life, so as he gets closer to someone, he might seem more and more blunt with them. Luce is not afraid to tell someone they look terrible or that he thinks something else works better. Luce is also a bit of a gossip due to this honest nature, he doesn't see the point in hiding facts or information from people.

He is still developing and learning about the world around him, but he does fight the change tooth and nail much preferring his life to be a simple one with his family. As a child with only seven years of this life behind him, he will act just like that. He will believe what he is told, and his honest nature will accept new facts, unless of course they challenge ones that he has already set in stone in his mind.

Luce is also a quiet child, he much prefers to play more gentle games instead of the rougher ones. The reason why is because he would rather not get hurt himself and thus can be quiet content playing with dolls or coloring.

Luce also likes to do do things by himself. He feels like if there are many people involved the chances of it becoming overly complication compounds upon itself. As he gets older, he will develop more and more preference to using Occam's Razor. He feels the simpler something is the better it is.

This means right now, Luce may actually seem quite emotionally immature and selfish. He does care for himself and his creature comforts first. He is a picky child and stubborn as a mule.Even though there is a lot going on when it comes to who Luce was, one has to remember first and foremost he is a child. He is learning that he can make his own choices, do the opposite of what he is told to do and is learning how to build relationships.

He is filled with his childish fears and desires, he will not think of long term things because right now, to him, even a day seems like a distant goal.

He will of course change while in the game, I am hoping that this Luce will deviate from the paths of his previous lives and become more accepting of other people and what help and information that they might provide. The spirit of Luce is judgmental, but he can change, he can learn and develop like anyone else. Being a child means he is more malleable to what can happen and how he can adapt, as a Player, I want to see how my character will grow and develop in game.

Fears: Being away from his family, that something will eat him, groups of large people, being in front of bunch of people. That if the adoption is successful, his fathers will ignore him. Those weird sounds of a house settling because what if it is actually a ghost or something? His plush friends not liking him.

Luce right now is more focused on the micro-environment in his life, he is developing new skills and of course is looking for approval on what he is or isn't doing. He is starting to take the world around him into account for how it can be. He is learning a lot about being tense, and he is scared of these new emotions and is not sure how to deal with them. A lot of his fears right now stem from the macro-environment and the unpredictability of it all. Luce is also scared of the unknown, because of this world expanding for him, he is learning there is in fact a lot he doesn't know. For example; what if those ghost stories are true- adults seem to believe them and there are magazines that prove it. He fears how things could be, because they are in fact a possibility.

Weaknesses: Luce is a deaf 7 year old. He refuses to accept new things into his life, he isn't very strong or energetic due to picky eating habits. He also tends to refuse to wear shoes, so he often tends to get random debris pricking his bare feet. Sign is his preferred method of communication, followed by writing, followed by trying to vocalize/lip read.

Luce being a child doesn't have the ability to solve problems like an adult would, he doesn't have the experience to do so. He is also becoming more aware of what he can and can not do, so he has more doubts in trying new things physically (such as say, doing a cartwheel on his own). Luce also has the education of a 1st grader, logic problems are hard, he prefers things with bright colors and pictures instead of walls of text. Which in a game like this (which does involve survival elements) would put him at a disadvantage as he will have to try and figure out how to get around with the educational and physical set he has.

Mundane Strengths/Abilities: Luce is very stubborn, amazingly so, at least when it comes to changing who he is. He has a firm sense of self and likes and dislikes and will not change. He is happy with how he is, and does a great inner strength to that. He reads and writes above his grade level. But becuse he is young, he is easy for molding into something greater. The imagination of a child(tm)

Sensitivity/Magical Ability: Luce has a lot of suppressed power in him as part of the agreement in life three for peace. For those who can sense it, they could tell he has a great amount of power. Luce has no access to this in his current life.

But in a situation where his abilities happen to be accessible, he would be a powerhouse where the limit to his abilities are only limited by his imagination of what can and can not be. The Judge life for example only knew how to use the basic skills such as clairvoyance, telepathy and telekinesis. Lux had full access to the abilities but unwilling to use them, and the third life feared these abilities and thought they were a curse. This is due to Lux/Judge/Unknown/Luce's connection to the God of this world and being the God's Judgment.

Supply List:
A backpack (his his world's version of Frozen characters on it) with his school supplies in it, along with his favorite plush toy (named Bird. Don't tell his other favorite plush he actually has a favorite. He doesn't want them to get mad at him.) He also has his hearing aids and glasses.

Game Transfers: N/A

Sample RP post:
With the grays on, the child appeared to be more washed out than normal. Luce already hated this place, he wanted his fathers, he wanted to be at home in his room. He was already terrified. When he tried to leave the room he was forced to put on shoes and he didn't understand all the strings and knots involved. He felt sick, "Baba? Sebs?" he questioned to the air, hoping one of his fathers would appear and take him home. That even why he wore the hearing aids, hoping he would hear the vibrations that he related to them.

The stuffed frog, that he creatively named 'Frog', though was a comfort though and he had placed it in his backpack. He was trying to be as quiet as possible, hoping for a familiar sound. He paid attention to the STRANGER DANGER things they had at school and that Sebs would talk about. He didn't get into anyone's car- he was just waiting to be picked up from school. This wasn't fair at all.

He questioned the air again, and no one responded. He was never told what to do if his kidnappers actually succeeded in taking him. He clinged to his backpack straps as he tried to figure out what to do next. There was a journal with his name on it, maybe he could write a letter and see if he could make a paper airplane to communicate and alert someone.

But that would involve having to know how to make a paper airplane, and to be honest, Luce did not have that skill. He let himself slump down as he moved his backpack to his front hugging it. He was supposed to do be doing chores from what he could figure out on his own, but he really just wanted to head home.
