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]]

..........What?

There are... different parts to the soul? Like, if your an animal or person? [Give him a minute... eating souls to him seems, wrong, but you're being so open about it.]

[...Oh wow it's a cute sounding girl in a pinch. Admittedly, this is a vaguely disturbing pinch, but he can't help but comment about something else right now.]

You know, Cheyenne-chan, I'm not sure that's the way for a girl to live~

This seems reasonable enough.

I... I see. [Give her a moment to process this. It's terribly familiar, but to really regret having such a need to survive... Obviously this girl has a good heart.]

And feeding on that one part of the soul wouldn't have any lasting effect on the... volunteer, would it?

[Zoro considers this post for several moments, an unreadable expression on his face. It's an expansion on the basics he already heard, so he listens carefully. But he's already met her. And more importantly, he's already seen what this feeding thing does to a person. ...To their crew's cook, specifically. And also what it doesn't do, under ideal circumstances.

Consideration for the girl's hunger plays the far lesser part in his decision to speak.]

I'll do it.

I won't deny that the concept of what you're suggesting is not at all to my tastes.

But it's good that you're being up front about things.

...I guess there's something to be said for the direct approach.

[Still weirded out, though.]

I see . . . so it's a generally harmless process.

[ A beat as he slowly takes all of this in. He doesn't have a reason to doubt her. ]

I'd be happy to aid you, Cheyenne.

A Soul is made of four parts?

[ He manages to make it sound curious enough that it pretty much overrides the tone more suiting his immediate gut reaction of THIS IS A VERY BAD CREATURE. ]
