2nd l o s t s o u l ~ [Voice]

Greetings, residents of Luceti. I am called Cheyenne, and there is something I wish to ask of you all.

By tomorrow, it will have been a month since my arrival in Luceti. I have, for the most part, remained unseen. I would have continued such a manner of living for the benefit of others here, but circumstances make such a lifestyle impossible for a creature such as myself. I am what is called an Illusionist. My kind is considered a monster in my world, due to what we must do to survive.

That is to say, illusionists feed on the souls of other living creatures.

To follow that, I feel I must add that the term "soul" may be different in my world as it is to your own. Illusionists see the soul in four parts, one of which naturally fluxuates throughout the day. Feeding on this section, Power, does little more than tire a creature in the same way that running a mile would tire a creature... no, not even to that extent. The process is truly harmless. You see, I am unique in terms of illusionists. My sisters feel no remorse in draining the souls of innocent creatures. I, however, do not wish to do so against the wishes of a creature who would feel uncomfortable in such a situation. Nor do I wish to bring harm to those residing in the village.

And so, I am here asking if there is anyone in Luceti who would be willing to allow me to feed off of them.

Ideally, I would only be required to feed on a particular person one time every few weeks. I only need to feed once or twice a week to contain my hunger. If I were in a desperate state, once a month would be enough to keep me sane. Although that is, by far, not a very ideal situation for myself...

Should anyone be so willing as to aid me, I would like a chance to meet with you sometime soon so that I may be sure it would be safe to feed from you. As the Power of a soul relates directly a creature's own stamina, those who are prone to frequent illness or weakness would be best to refrain from offering. And, if you are so willing, I will also show the process by which I feed so you know what to expect in the future.

I thank you for listening to all I have to say. Should you have any comments or concerns to ask about, I am willing to answer them here.

[[ooc: Okay, a few things to clarify in regards to Cheyenne's feeding! First, if you haven't filled out her permissions post, please do so here! It makes threading with her much easier if I know whether or not she can see your character.

And now, the feeding itself. If your character agrees to this, Cheyenne will appear at their home once every few weeks to feed. It takes about 5 minutes and will make your character light-headed or sleepy for a few hours, or until they eat something. Most of this will likely be hand-waived in the future, seeing as Cheyenne will probably just feed-and-leave for the most part.

In this post, Cheyenne will need to meet your character in person to see if they're safe to feed on, so this will be one of the few times the feeding will be played out! Illusionists can't over-eat souls, so she will be doing multiple feedings in one day just this once. If you want, we can hand-waive this as well and you can just have your character volunteer. Also, feel free to bombard her with questions; eating souls is serious business, after all. :|b If you have questions for me, you can PM Cheyenne's account or (for a faster answer) send me a message on AIM at Precure Black.

And finally, since I know there are a lot of people on hiatus right now, don't worry if you missed this thread! Chances are Cheyenne may ask again so she won't have to feed on the same people as often. Otherwise, I don't mind people backtagging this thread, in which you can assume they saw it at a different time screw you, space-time continuum! <3]]

[Is everyone in Luceti this dynamic?]

I suppose I would not be adverse to it, although, some manner of explanation would be appreciated before I agree to anything.

I can tell you all about the ins and outs if it, Cheyenne-chan!! After all, I'm a master of everything related to a young maiden's heart~ They call me the guru of love!

[He laughs here before leaning in more on the book, well]

A date is something a boy and girl go on to get to know each other better~ a destined meeting where they can get closer to each other!

A destined meeting, hm. I suppose if that is the case, I can't exactly say no, can I? [A curious smile.] When exactly should this meeting take place?

I'm a sinful man, I'll have you know... [And then he snaps his fingers!] But worry not! There is always room enough in my heart for more pretty girls~!

[He laughs and then hmmm...] Weeeeell, if you're going to see all sorts of people today, Cheyenne-chan, how about tomorrow? You can show off your new vitality with me!
illusional: (Oh how shocking! [/sarcasm])

Tomorrow would be rather ideal, yes. It is not as though there are many other commitments in this world that could fill up one's schedule.

Today being an exception, of course.

Oh~! And I'm sorry I can't offer my soul right now, but I don't want to tire before our date~! I can give you my heart though, Cheyenneeeeeee-chan!

[Somewhat, but it all came out right in the end, so he's not looking back as long as there isn't a Kraken breathing down his neck.]

Not at all; it's lovely to be wanted, don't you think?

No, never, some of my friends here have told me about them. [He drifts off for a second as he watches a wave crash into the shore, wanting to be sure he'll hear it.] But I never pictured something so... alive.

[personal profile] illusional 2010-10-15 04:10 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't know. The last time I was wanted, I was locked in a dungeon. Not a very pleasant experience, to say the least.
all7seas: (must be a tiny thing behind the Pearl)

[personal profile] all7seas 2010-10-15 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I've been locked in many a dungeon. Escaping them is quite a thrill, don't you agree? How'd you get loose, then?
illusional: (I am disappoint.)

[personal profile] illusional 2010-10-15 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
To be honest, I am not sure whether I escaped or not. The last I recall, I was leaping out the window. But, rather than fall to what might have been my demise, I woke up here.
all7seas: (hmmmm....)

[personal profile] all7seas 2010-10-16 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Ah; shame, that. Leaping out the window is never my first choice, eh? Too much chance of being smashed to smithereens on sharp rocks or simply shot. It pays to look for more opportune methods of buggering off than that.

It isn't just what I saw -- it's the ability itself that I also find awesome.

. . . But to think one may even relive a moment of his life, that's a powerful gift.

[ He doesn't suspect Cheyenne to use it maliciously, after all. ]

Re: [ Action ]

[personal profile] illusional 2010-10-18 07:22 am (UTC)(link)
A gift? ...I suppose that is a way one might interpret such a power.

[A small smile.] It is not very often that I hear such kind words given to my illusions. Rather, considering the purpose they are designed to serve, I have heard them referred to as a sort of curse.

"Alive" is a rather fitting term. Although the ocean itself does not possess a soul, its never-ending movement makes it far more visible to me than most environments. [A rather serene smile.] Not to mention the life contained within, which is so very abundant.

Had this illusion been stronger, you would not have even been aware that this was an illusion. Instead, I imagine you would experience the sensation of truly seeing a true ocean for the first time in your life. Every sense becomes immersed in the illusion. Sight, scent, sound...

[brb taking things literally. Why would she need his heart? She's an illusionist, not a cannibal.]

I'm afraid I have little need for your heart, Masaomi Kida.

The city in which I was held captive is entirely desert and sand, so I am certain my fall would have ended in a relatively softer landing. Regardless, I am alive here and now.

Yes. Although, had I created such an illusion, I would have been feeding far more than I would like to do so at this time. When I begin my regular feeding, such illusions are possible.

Furthermore... [She walks over to the water and walks in; since she's part of the illusion and not technically "real" herself, the water seems to react as it should to her; the water splashes up and soaks the bottom hem of her dress.] In order to break out of such a powerful illusion, it requires more than the mere knowledge that what you see is an illusion. One must fight against what they are seeing.

[She looks over at him.] Although I do not wish to give you reason not to trust me, at the same time, I feel it is only fair for you to understand the weakness of my illusions should the need ever arise where you would need to break from one yourself.

[Jack lowers his voice.] I've been imprisoned in the desert myself. And here--I were imprisoned in the clinic, for trying to substitute McCoy's soul for my own in said desert. So you'd best watch your step around these folk.

[Vash just smiles kindly.] Well, seeing as you're telling me the weakness of your illusions, sounds like more of a reason to trust you to me.
