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]]

Why is that? It truly makes no difference whether or not you are a human. The creatures I typically fed from in my previous world were actually Elemen, not Human.

Either way, a soul is still a soul.

Well, I guess that's good that it doesn't matter. I would have hated if I uh... gave you indigestion or something like that.

I am not aware I gave such an impression when I said I fed upon souls... You know, I did not mean I literally ingest them. I still require nutrients from regular food to keep my body functioning.

Uh... well, it's when you say something to be funny. It could be something not true - like you getting indigestion from feeding off my soul or something like - there are two cowboys in the kitchen, how do you tell which is the real cowboy? The one on the range!

Then I suppose that is something I cannot understand. I have never laughed before.

As far as I am aware, Illusionists are incapable of such an emotion.

You can't feel happy?

I am perfectly able to feel happy. Also sad and angry. Confused. Some illusionists have even experienced "fear".

Emotions more complex than those are rather beyond me. If I do feel them, I am unable to understand and express them properly.

Well, we should work on this while you're here! Teach you how to laugh!

[personal profile] illusional 2010-10-18 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Although I am in full support of developing a better grasp on my limited emotions, I do not think "laughter" is a realistic goal to have. I have not laughed once in the 200 years I have been alive.

Welllllllllllll then! No time like the present to start to work on that then right? [Sorry there, but you've given him a goal to work on while in Luceti.]

...I suppose. Although I must admit I am curious as to how you expect a creature such as myself to improve upon such a thing. Even now, I often forget to smile when I am happy.

Ehh, we'll figure it out as it goes. [Meaning... he has no idea.]

[personal profile] illusional 2010-10-18 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, even if nothing should come of it, it makes me happy that someone has invested an interest in helping me. [A smile.]

You know, the limited emotion I am capable of feeling is the reason I am so different from other illusionists. It is why I do not feed with the intent to cause serious harm to the creature I feed upon.

[She shakes her head.] Actually, it is quite the opposite. My sisters possess little-to-no emotions. They see no point in them. It is because I possess the ability to feel that I am a "peaceful" illusionist.

Had I no emotions, I would be unable to feel "guilt" whenever I bring harm to another creature.
