Loki is someone I associate with Vincent and Lucrecia more than anyone else— those were their primary people and are the primary relationships I tend to focus on. During modern day, they're close (?) with the Turks and are insufferable about Vincent once he's active again.

Loki was originally an experiment underneath Dr. Lucrecia's jurisdiction. They were deeply sick due to complications with their mothers' pregnancy and had a predisposition for mako poisoning... and they ended up being given up for experimentation because their parents were tired of taking care of a chronically ill child.

Loki's role within Shinra is as a tracker. They have incredible instincts for hunting down their mark and have the physical capabilities to do so quickly and efficiently. They're actually, usually, pretty goddamn ruthless in doing so.

Loki is... a little naive about the ways of the world outside of Shinra. They were a princess in a tower for so much of their life— sick and bed-bound and then confined to an experiments lab, and then back in Shinra's hands.

Lotus was a character that I tailored specifically to be of use to Aventurine, and then let their story sort of build itself. Lotus is a quiet person who doesn't have a lot of presence— but in that same vein, it means that they can listen and observe often undisturbed.

They are an Emanator of Abundance, but aren't consciously aware of it. They were given the power to revive the newly-dead, but they were given this ability prior to their memory. Yaoshi took them away from intense heartache and settled them into a war-torn planet with no memories of Before, and they chased after people in attempt to keep them alive.

Lotus has lived a long time and is moderately affected by Mara— they have flare-ups that turn them into a monster, caused by strong feelings of grief, heartache, or distress. This turns them violent and can lead them to cause a lot of destruction until they're soothed, and then they will return to normal.

They are EXTREMELY loyal. They were put under Aventurine's employ against both of their wishes, but came to respect and care a lot about Aventurine. As such, they take orders ONLY from him, and will follow his word down to the letter (even if it's as a huge 'fuck you' to Jade specifically).

Luce was a fun exercise of "How do I want to implement Awakening stuff into 3H." because I knew from the beginning I wanted them to be a taguel. Miklan's chapter was super helpful— they still have their animal traits, but they decide to never use their beaststone because they don't want to get mistaken as a monster.

Luce is from Regna Ferox (Awakening) and is the apprentice of Lon'qu, who taught them their swordskills! They go to Fodlan chasing rumors of the Officer's Academy and the legendary knights they supposedly produce, wanting to expand their view of the world while simultaneously getting stronger in the process. They meet Claude and the two of them match each other's freak....pretty instantly, honestly.

During wartime, Luce accidentally becomes an urban legend— kind of like a Robin Hood, almost? There are rumors about a specter who will slaughter brigand companies if they do too much damage to civilians— which basically means Luce killed a lot of thieves and stole back whatever was pilfered from towns.

Luce is sarcastic, a little oblivious, VERY protective, and unable to keep their mouth shut when they think someone else is in the wrong. They have very strong feelings about what they believe in and will defend their ideals and the people they love without hesitation.
