Demons and humans aren’t that different, other than appearance

Independent RP blog for Raine Sage from Tales of Symphonia. Post DotNW. OC and crossover friendly. Might also end up a bit dark due to past events.

"Coming here was your idea. You mean your history books didn't tell you about those?" 'Those' were a couple of golems, two and a half stories tall, and currently asleep in the ruined corridor ahead. Lloyd hoped they were, anyway. He looked back at Raine anxiously. "Are you sure this is the only way through this place?" (gentleidealist)

“Well, unless one of us finds a hidden passage, I’m afraid so.” Raine said dryly as she remembered what she read, “In any case, the golems here are meant to act as guardians for a vault. While no one knows what’s inside it, I do think that for the sake of study, we may need to find out.”

Ask Box is open, feel free to ask Raine or her assistant Aaron anything that comes to mind.

Off of Mount Fooji…

Kratos glanced at the teen for a minute, growing more curious about his story by the minute, but now wasn’t the time. There were more important thing to deal with. Though when Raine asked him about helping the boy with his form, he froze.

He’d really only been a sword instructor twice, and only one of those students had learned to really fight like him. A student who ended up losing himself with Martel died. The only reason he’d agreed to teach Lloyd was because his heart was in the right place, and he wanted to ensure his son had the strength needed to survive, as well as protect the people he cared about.

His left hand gripped tightly at the sheath Excalibur was in.

“Are you sure you want me to help him?” He asked slowly. “Why not ask Zelos for help?” The Chosen could be a pain, but he fought with precision and finesse. Kratos knew that their exact fighting styles were fundamentally different. His own style focused on strength and speed, while the Chosen’s style clearly focused on accuracy, precision, and finesse.

He supposed the only reason he was asking was to be sure she really wanted his help. Kratos wasn’t too keen on teaching sword techniques to others after all.

[ruin-mode]

“Because I’d sooner expect Zelos to flirt, rather than teach, and I don’t think Aaron learning more than just swordsmanship from him would be a good thing.” Raine said, causing Aaron to speak up as well and throw in his own two cents on the matter.

“Besides,” the one eyed teen said as he took a moment to stretch a bit, “My mom had a contract prepared to assassinate both Zelos and his little sister, Seles... not to mention my late grandpa on dad’s side did something crazy to a Wilder when he was about my age... so that might also be a factor in why it might be better to ask someone else.”

“And what would that be?” Raine asked, though unsure why she couldn’t help but get that annoying feeling of impending doom after she did.

“From what I remember him telling me? He made a bet with I think Zelos’ granddad that led to him going out of the city with no armor or weapons, and then proceeding to tame three egg bears, a chimera and a manticore after wrestling them down with his bare hands, and then parading them through Meltokio all the way to the Wilder Estate and make sure Wilder paid up.” Aaron said casually, while Raine merely looked rather afraid of the teen’s late grandfather.

“What exactly was the bet?” Raine asked in instinct.

“Whether or not he could pull it off.” Aaron said, causing Raine to groan and feel a headache coming on.

“Well then Kratos, after hearing that, do you really think Zelos would want to teach Aaron how to fight?”

Starter Call

Like or send me a message if you want a starter. Since I finally put up a bio for Raine’s OC assistant, Aaron, I figured this would be a good way to celebrate. And also let people actually have something to help them choose between Raine and her assistant when it comes to who they may want their characters to interact with.

Finally.

Anywho, starters will be posted tomorrow.

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 26

Aaron: Now THAT is a look the Owena I knew would be proud of!

Raine: I’ll admit, that Gothic Plade does look nice. Surprised those Mythril Arms didn’t cost a gald thanks to it being dropped by a monster as well.

Aaron: Yup! Lucky find on my part!

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 25

Aaron: HAHA! Second time’s the charm!

Raine: *rolls eyes and shakes her head.*

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 24

Raine: So... you’re having Owena try the Fossail quest again?

Aaron: Yup.

Raine: Are you sure she can handle it this time? I mean, you couldn’t even have her beat one last time...

Aaron: I know, but, since Owena is tougher now, and has better armor, she should be able to handle it this time.

Raine: ... good luck, though, if those things become Owena’s true arch nemesis, Widdershin may be embarrassed by the competition.

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 23

Aaron:... Okay, this Leon guy seems like a bigger prick than Kratos. I don’t care if he has a fancy cape, he’s still an asshole.

Raine: Maybe he’ll admit later on like you’re able too. *rolls eyes*

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 22

Aaron: Ah, now that was only... almost a full minute longer than it took to take down Lloyd. Either way, it was EXTREMELY cathartic to do. So glad to kill corrupted government officials for justice!

Raine: That’s got to be embarrassing in terms of how long it took compared to Lloyd... Though, who is Widdershin?

Aaron: ... Uh.... is it just me, or does he look sort of...

Raine: Demonic, maybe, but if you insist I might be related to him...

Aaron: What? No! Nope, don’t see a resemblance between you two at all! Besides, he’s apparently a descender that turned his tree into a seed and is feeding it lots, and lots of mana... though what kind of names are Gilgulim and Widdershin?

Raine: What I’m surprised by is that Owena managed to destroy that thing behind him when he was trying to kill her. Though... Widdershin’s plan sounds like something someone I met once would do...

Aaron: That Mithos guy?

Raine: Exactly.

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 21

Aaron: Ugh, why does this place have zombies and ghosts here? The bees and dragons I don’t mind, but those things? Ugh. And just why do the Zombies here have beehives on their backs, anyway?

Raine: I honestly have no idea.

After warping around and getting a bit lost later...

Aaron: FINALLY! It’s time to kick Dranser’s ass... though, did Kannono have to be so corny with that “light of freedom arrives” line?

Raine: ... That... may actually be worse than Yuan... Though, why did you have Owena bring Chester with her, that other me, and Lloyd?

Aaron: Didn’t feel right leaving him behind while we rescued his adopted sister. Plus, he does have a pretty big grudge against Dranser as well..

Raine: Point taken.

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 20

Aaron: uh... Raine?

Raine: Yes Aaron?

Aaron: The hell kind of place is this?

Raine: ... *Flashbacks to Welgaia and Derris Kharlan* Uh... not sure. Just... have Owena explore it, you do have a rescue mission to perform, and since Dranser is there...

Aaron: RIGHT! Time to kick an evil old bastard’s ass!

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 19

Aaron: Oh great. Kannono’s been kidnapped by Dranser.

Raine: Looks like Owena will have to rescue her...

Aaron: Or at least rescue Chester from doing something stupid.

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 18

Aaron: So... before we kick Dranser’s ass... we have to escort Stahn back to Doplund, through the place we broke him out of... Raine: Well, he does need to coordinate with his branch of the guild so that they don’t end up failing their little coup.

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 17

Aaron: Ugh... I handled those Fossail things horribly... I’m gonna have to get Owena a lot stronger before facing those things again... What really sucks is that’s the first job in the game that I had to cancel...

Raine: And this is what happens when you get cocky.

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 16

Aaron: Wow. This Luke guy is just getting burned pretty badly! What a long haired dumbass of a spoiled brat! *Laughs his ass off*

Raine: ... I never thought I’d actually see someone who is actually worse than you were, and actually mean it... but, I guess he does want to help... somehow...

Aaron: Yeah, if he can get his ego problem taken out... though, I’ll admit Kratos in this game was right about no one should know the weight of a life...

Raine: ... You’ve found that out on your own then?

Aaron: Yeah... Toriana would force me to kill Half-elves she had captured and brought into a dungeon sometimes... *sighs sadly* hated doing it every time, but well, Uncle Drake kind of helped me learn how to just... keep my feelings under control around her, but the things she had me do to them... *shudders* I... I don’t ever want to have to do anything like that again, and if I do have to kill a person again, well, I’d rather it’d be for a good reason, and that they’re at least able to put up a fight.

Raine: ... Toriana was more twisted than I thought... Aaron, I’m... I’m sorry you had to go through all that... but... I’m glad you managed to become, well, an alright person at least...?

Aaron: Thanks, teach.

[ruin-mode]

Raine and Aaron’s Radiant Mythology Commentary 15

Aaron: Look at Owena in her new outfit! Pretty nice, eh? Though, really wish she had some shorts or something... eh, oh well.

Raine: ... You’re enjoying this a bit much, don’t you think?

Aaron: At least I didn’t put her in some of the stuff that costs Grade Points...

Raine: ... yet.
