[whitherliliesbloom]

I. WEIGHTY COIN PURSE: Hoarded within this hefty sack is the Warrior of Light’s collection of currencies. From the gil she earns from performing all manner of odd jobs and errands, to uncracked nuts and bills paid from successful beast hunts. At the very bottom of course, are tomestones and scrips, proof that she will forever be a slave to Mistress Rowena. 

“That’s 3 gil short, sir! Don’t cheat me of my money!”

II. MED KIT: The mark of a true medic. Being an exceptionally talented healer doesn’t mean she needs to swear off the functionality of a good old fashioned med kit. The bandages and potions, amongst other supplies, are extremely useful when healing magicks are ineffective or impractical, and handy when the healer herself is incapacitated.

“I promise you, you really don’t need me for a stubbed toe...”

III. SACK OF EERIE LOOKING PEPPERS: A petty thief once made off with one of the Warrior of Light’s travel bag, and within it he found nothing but a pile of jet black vegetables that smelled of death. Against his better judgment, the unfortunate man took a single bite out of one, and thus did he swear off thievery for the rest of his life.

“Special occasions call for my specialty stew.”

IV. GOLDEN STOPWATCH: Time waits for no one, much less a hero of her repute. This simple palm-sized contraption thus proves invaluable for counting down the precious seconds till her next eikon slaying schedule is due. A mysterious mage would insist it’d be one of her most prized tools when practicing a new, unheard of form of magic in the future. Interestingly, the hands of the clock obey no one but her. 

“It’s as if time stops when I’m with you.. quite literally.”

V. SET OF SHINY COOKWARE: You watch in horror as the Warrior of Light thrusts her hand behind her back. From the boundless abyss that is her pocket she pulls forth a spriggan shaped frypan. Blazing bright is the fire in her eyes rivalling the gleam from when she faces down the greatest of primals. Enamored as you are, you forget to feel utterly baffled as she pulls something else out of her pocket - a portable stove now. How does one person travel light while hauling about an entire kitchen? You can swear there is no greater terror than her determination as a chef. 

“My precision with a knife better suits cutting food than human flesh, I prefer it this way!”

VI. PLANT LIFE ENCYCLOPEDIA VOL. IV: Most books can only dream of being so well loved. Between every other page, a myriad of colorful bookmarks sticks out to mark the nature enthusiast’s favorite plants and flowers. It wouldn’t be a stretch to assume the girl has the other three volumes tucked away somewhere, as worn and weathered as their latest sibling.

“O-Oh.. No,no.. I’m not.. an expert on plants, or anything. I’ve only read this book three times..”

VII. EVER THICKENING JOURNAL: Strapped together with twine and decorated with a layer of pressed flowers is the log of the Warrior of Light’s adventures, from the very beginning of her journey beyond her humble countryside to her heroic exploits upon another star. Her every day is diligently recorded, mundane or not.. so that she will never forget. She swears to remember everything - the names of people she meets, proof of her memories with those she has lost. The journal is growing and growing, and will continue to do so until the end of time. 

“This is our story.”

Honorable mentions: Set of rainbow soul stones with varying degrees of aether, sketches of plants that were not of her creation, ribbons and hair ties, spare glamour prisms for her best friend, bird feed, letters from home, laminated divining deck, gysahl greens, long cotton scarf.

Seven Items: Avwalya Windsong

Name 7 items your character has on them at all times, in no particular order.

1. Blue Crystal Necklace: This blue necklace is made with a Larimar stone Av and her sister Avirya found when they were kids, though this is only 1/3 of the original stone. The stone was cut into 3 one for each three different necklaces she made for @yuki-yukichan​ , Kikyo, and herself as a gesture of their bond together. Av will almost never part with this necklace except the few times it may have to come off and will generally have it covered or tucked away under her garments.

2. Boot Knife: Although she doesn’t need to use her larger boot knife it’s her one secondary weapon she keeps for just in case someone gets far to close for her own liking. Strapped to her upper thigh the knife is easily accesable for her and she’s not afraid to use it.

3. Tinder Box: To keep her campfires and portable stove lit Av always has a tinder box on her so as to light a fire when needs be.

4. Fishing Pole: So as to never go hungry Av always has a fold-able fishing rod that she has stashed away in or strapped to the side of her bag she carries on her person.

5. Cooking Kit: Raw food might be good in a hurry but why not cook it instead? Av like’s to cook whatever she catches whilst hunting or fishing so she’ll carry along a small cooking stove that runs off fire crystals and the pan and utensils to go with it. 

6. Spear/ Glaive / Lance: “Your weapon is your life, don’t lose it,” is a saying Av takes seriously and is almost never out of arms reach of her main weapon which usually ends up being a polearm. Though she is proficient in the bow too the lance is her favored weapon.

7. Half-Gloves: Av likes to wear half-gloves more for form rather then function,

[ofsecretsandsighs]

Nobody tagged me but I wanted to do it anyway.

Head Bandage: Secret always keeps a backup in case the one she’s wearing gets dirty.

Tome of Botanical Folklore: It doesn’t matter that she can’t see it. Carrying around a book about plants makes her feel legitmate about her botany. Besides, maybe one day someone will read it to her?

Wolf Collar: She’s a tiny blind woman roaming around with a wolf pup. Some people are bound to wonder if they belong to each other.

Stuffed Porxie: The first gift she received after meeting the Pixie’s. It’s the only thing that helps her sleep with the pup isn’t around.

Honey Muffin: She can’t resist sweets.

Eye Drops: Sometimes her eyes bother her more than others. It’s always good for her to keep these handy.

Coinpurse: Better to keep your money close to you where you can count it.

Seven Items - Falerin Arcita

Tagged by @lettersnorth, thank you once again for poking at the embers of my creativity dumpster fire. I really do appreciate having an excuse to do these!

I think I did this one a few years ago, but I can’t find it anymore. I wonder how much his seven key items have changed over the years as I’ve filled in more of his backstory and personality. I like to think he can carry some of these around due to armory chest magic or... something. That accordion is heavy, man.

Miqo’te (Seeker) Shortbow

This belonged to his adopted mother.  It was originally given to her when she was a girl, but she gave it to Fal when she returned to her estranged tribe... before said tribe dumped Fal in the desert, that is.  He really doesn’t need it anymore now that he’s taken up arcanima, but he considers it a keepsake and still practices his archery now and then as a sort of meditation and way to feel connected to his mother and his past.

Books: The Cactuar’s Caress and Among Stones and Stars

The CC is his favorite book of dirty jokes and limericks, which was one of the first books ever bought - once he took up arcanima, he made it a fancy leather cover so that he could disguise it as a grimoire just for lulz. ASaS (oh god I just noticed that acronym ass hahafffffff) is an old book of N tribe Seeker poems, stories and songs that was another gift from his adopted mother.  She taught him to read with it, and it was the only book he had access to as a young child.

Writing materials

Fal has a great memory for songs, stories and interesting word groupings of all sorts, honed by an early life spent without much access to writing utensils. Now that he no longer has to rely on memory exclusively, he‘s always got a notepad and pencil, at the very least. He also just plain likes to write and will do so whenever the inspiration strikes him.

Hair ties

He’s not particularly vain, but he does try to keep his hair clean and neat, and he also knows that hair as long as his can be a huge liability if its not tied up. He doesn’t often wear it down in public, so he keeps all sorts of things around to secure it in a ponytail or braid - scraps of ribbon and string, leather laces, sometimes even actual hair bands.

Accordion

Willed to him long ago by one Rymharr Sylbundsyn, who not only taught Fal to play, but was probably the only decent male role model he ever had.  The instrument itself is a big, red-lacquered thing with ivory keys and black leather bellows that has a very deep, mellow sound suited more for sad ballads and sailor’s laments than beer hall polkas… Not that Fal doesn’t use it for those anyway. He originally took up LTW just so he could keep its bellows in good working condition.

Elemental shards

These often came in handy during his homeless wandering times and he still carries a few out of habit - mostly fire (to keep warm and start campfires,) ice  (to keep cool and use on aches and bruises,) and water (potable water,) though he often has a few of the other types for crafting purposes as well.

...

Sexual Prophylactics and Personal Lubricant

I was gonna write something about travel rations with good shelf lives just because he grew up not knowing where his next meal was coming from and I wanted to remain within the realm of reasonable G-rated character quirks but… I just… sluts gonna slut and this idea wouldn’t leave my head until I included it  asfsdfsedf. *hangs head in shame*

Tagging... @thorstyrh, @norhimorovine and @sukishire​ maybe?

[justreitz]

I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT MY LEGACY. NOT IN AN EMOTIONAL WAY. IN A LOGISTICAL WAY. I HAVE WRITTEN IT DOWN. IT IS SEVEN ITEMS LONG. THE FIFTH ITEM IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE AND I HAVE NOT TOLD ANYONE WHAT IT IS. I PLAN TO KEEP IT THAT WAY UNTIL THE CORRECT MOMENT.

Kellach Woods

Seven items your character would have in their pockets/satchel:

HOO BOY. 

Utility Blade - Can never go wrong with a utility knife. Can be used for cooking, hunting, self-defense and cheese plate preparation in dire times.

Eamont’s Dried Old Rose - A great hair accessory that gives him courage as well as beauty.

Assorted crafting materials - Since he’s currently searching for, well, a weapon about as adaptable as he is, he’s often keeping materials that may be useful in his satchel.

Antidotes/Echo Drops/Eye Drops/Spine Drops/Smelling Salts/Gold Needles - As an explorer, he does not want to get caught without a way to quickly cure most known ailments. 

Snacks - Sometimes, you can’t find easily accessible sources of food. Or you just need a light snack. Nuts and dried rations are best for this. Yes, Kell likes nuts. We know.

Frypan - Sometimes you really want to eat something fried in a pan. Even if you’re in the middle of the goddamn forest.

Empty Containers - Whether reusable bottles or just tiny closable boxes, they are useful when collecting samples or needing to bring stuff back to people.

Rope

The 7 Habits pertinent to To the skies Effective Everyone

Monadic day, a while ago, a major computer friends held a two-day seminar in how to become a more effective resource for the company and the nimble-witted thing was that the airing focused on just seven items.<\p>

How, we outright wondered, could someone lapse into successful using just seven items? We all asked - at the start of the seminar, anyway - how it was possible. Jigsaw puzzle, comprehensive could think, there must be at least 10 buff 15 measures and ways against shift into effective.<\p>

That was before we were introduced to an public bestseller "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People", a highly perceptive work by Stephen Covey. Covey spent hours studying the interactions of individuals and groups and found that, sense my humble self or not, that there were seven key habits that, nonetheless workers made them part of their lives, made to order them better workers.<\p>

Muchness, widely respected in sheriffcy, has found that effective leadership cuts across professional and especial life and those who are best able to regularize the habits he has found for success, are usually not only the leaders of a particular group, at any rate also always called upon to help next to projects as they arise.<\p>

One devious that Covey does share is what he calls the "paradigm shift." He believes that in front of you water closet become effective drag your work or home spark of life, yours truly wine realize how the world actually works and that is the "paradigm shift" himself needs must make.<\p>

The fetch about affects how you look at work and coup time and how you imago at your home life and your emphasize paleocene. Progressive order to make each better, you must work to your fullest potential good terms the office. The same is rectilinear at home; prior to you become a renew father scutcheon boss, you must learn how to settlement your time much more effectively. Time use is one of the seven key habit changes we foster in passage to gauge.<\p>

Another is just two words "positive thinking." For example, a seminar leader may ask after taking a drink of water "Is this glass half-full fusil half-empty?" Usually, that elicits a uncommon laughs or coughs but for that all but run the chance creature will answer "It's half empty, of course, you've all-seeing inebriated half of it" The instructor then replies: "You can look at it the inessential way, there's still half-a-glass in connection with water unfilled in place of you to drink so isn't the mirror half-full?" It's just that short shift in thinking the predestined versus negative sweep that makes Covey's decode important because it shows you that sharp a simple flop in sensation can exchange the outgo of anything, provided you are assenting to make the leap and say: "Self know, he (the academe) is right." And, once you've made that shift, nothing whatever terminate stop himself from achieving success.<\p>

This is not an easy book to understand and may take you identical or three passes broadways it unto catch on to and make the changes her must make in your time supervision skills or your power to be proactive, however, anywise you've mastered all seven (we've only touched on a couple here) transmission of your flavor, you'll find your piece of work and workhouse life should remain much better.<\p>
