The Seer of Blood. The Seer, a class of Knowing. Blood, the aspect of connection, teamwork and unity.

The Seer of Blood is a God Tier perfectly able to see solutions that benefit the team – a timeline where the team as a whole will succeed in a battle, or a timeline where a certain action will send the team to their deaths. They have the ability to see anything to do with their team, and even have powers on the more physical side of their aspect – they can see the weak points in an enemy.

Their seeing of the enemy’s weak points in related to their ability to – in the most physical sense – see blood. They can see which spot will result in the most blood loss, which would in turn weaken the enemy. Hence, the seeing of their weak spot.

On their more meta-physical sense, they can see anything involving the team they are in. Whether that team be a sporting group or their session in SBurB, any good outcomes involving them, the Seer can see. But they are forever obliged by their Title to never be the one to win the battle themselves, as it were. They are tasked with nudging their friends along, pushing them in the direction required for victory. And, even then, it may not even be victory in the common sense. Perhaps the best outcome for the team is one where there is victory, but at the cost of an ally and teammate.

You are the Seer of Heart. Your destiny is to Know Blood. You are here to see the weak spots of enemies, guide your team in the route best for them, and know how to bring everyone together. That is your purpose.

The Land of Bone and Ice is a strange land. On the surface, it appears to be just a frozen wasteland – an icy plain filled with icy towers stretching towards Skaia, a plain buffeted with bitter winds and howling snow storms. And, even deep down, that is the still the case. But, on top of the coldness of the land, there is something else.

Below the frozen plains lies the remains of a giant beast – a beast perhaps larger than your entire land. The bones of this beast typically remain buried beneath the ice, but certain parts stick out to become daunting landmarks. In fact, many of the icy towers scattered throughout your land are really the bones of the beast, coated in ice over the thousands of years they have been there.

Your quest is to defend your land. Your denizen is slowly waking after a long slumber – one presumably induced by fighting the giant monster – and it is destroying the skeleton of the best. And the main issue is that this weakens the ice, sending cracks kilometers wide across the plains.

...

I apparently took 7 months to get to this.

omf sorry shit im horrible and out of practice

hope you like it though!

The Land of Smoke and Mirrors is a calm but shady land. Beyond a hazy layer of smoke encompassing the entire Land, you find giant fields of snow, beyond which are huge flat oceans. But appearances can be deceptive, as the snows cover many caves full of secrets, and the oceans are not oceans, but are in fact giant mirrors, reflecting all the light they can!

But that isn’t all. Standing erect amongst the fields of snow are giant torches and lanterns, all designed for a single purpose – to light the dark. Many days you would see new torches and lanterns being erected – the ensuing smoke blocks more and more light from Skaia, and more artificial light is required.

But the torch light doesn’t reach into the secret caves, where shady deals are made in order to get more. Your consorts live primarily underground, and they harbor many secrets about the land and your quest. And none of their secrets will be given up willingly.

Here you go! eep timestamps says its been 5 months are you fucking serious gomen gomenasai

The Prince of Blood. The Prince, a class of Destroying. Blood, an aspect of connection, unity and responsibility.

The Prince of Blood, in simple terms, would be a heart breaker, rule breaker and a breaker of who you are. Another perhaps cruder example would be ‘the biggest cock-block of all time’. They would be severing connections between people, denying all responsibility for their actions and most likely would be a bit of a daredevil. Doing whatever he/she liked, really.

Of course, not all Princes are bad. On a brighter path, they would easily make their enemies have problems being coordinated. A finely built team could fall like a pack of cards to the breaking of their unity. Which would empower your team to go kick some broken ass, which would be made significantly easier by your actions. In a more gruesome way, you could destroy the physical blood in an enemy, making them weak and easier to kill or defeat.

But there is the more well known ‘evil’ side of the Prince which cannot be overlooked. While their intentions may well be good, their execution will lack thought often. They will simply act, and this could lead to the severing of several relationships. With this title that is especially true, since they are likely to be rather hotheaded and may even accidentally destroy their own friendships with others. And should their friends try to reconcile, the Prince would destroy their responsibility and suddenly it’s all the other persons fault. This can be used for good or bad, of course.

You are the Prince of Blood. Your destiny is to Destroy Blood. You are here to destroy responsibility, ruin teamwork and greatly weaken enemies. That is your purpose.

The Land of Gravity and Rivers is a strange land. A hard land that seems to consist only of harsh rocky plains, and the rivers for which this land is named. The rivers are easily the strangest point of this land, with hardly any obeying any laws of physics. Some rivers flow uphill, towards the tops of rocky mountains. Others flow directly upwards into the sky, curling towards Skaia with no solid ground beneath them. Some just glide through the skies like flying snakes, twisting and turning. And they rarely remain in the same place. They often shift and change. And that is the Gravity of your land at work. In fact, there are very few points of stable gravity – luckily your house is one of them.

I'm sorry for taking sooooo long 4 months holy shit here you go, though! ^.^*

The Knight of Heart. The Knight, a class of Exploiting. Heart, an aspect of Emotion, Morals and Impulses.

The Knight of Heart could be seen in many ways. One way would be a trickster, an illusionist, twisting the ideals of those around them to benefit them and their friends. The other way would be a liar or untrustworthy friend, who toys with the hearts of those around them and makes others unsure of where their true loyalties lie. It is of course up to the Knight as to which path they choose to take and what they decide to make of themselves.

On the first path, they can use the emotions of their enemies to their advantage – perhaps egging them into becoming sad so that their visions blur so they are easier to defeat, or making them happy so they don’t fight as hard. They can also exploit the morals of their opponents, able to read what they will try to do and what they believe in and perhaps working out a way to convince them that it is not the right way.

The second path is almost like that of a heartbreaker. They can use the emotions of their enemies and allies to their advantage, empowering them to do whatever they choose to. This could lead to a few misinterpretations, but there are other side paths. For instance, they could also be able to empower themselves with the sadness of an ally in order to punish the person who made them sad, making them a hero. A shining knight, if you will.

You are the Knight of Heart. Your destiny is to Exploit Heart. You are here to be a heartbreaker, convince your enemies that they are wrong and weaken those who oppose you. That is your purpose.

The Land of Lakes and Reflections is a calm place. A land of rolling plains, with some larger hills but no mountains. Large lakes – large enough to perhaps be called small oceans – are scattered around your land, some connected by rivers winding through the hills and some connecting to make true oceans to cover a large portion of your world. Some lakes are chaotic and wild, the waves crashing against the small cliffs that surround them and sending spray high up into the air. But some are smooth as glass, and can indeed be used as mirrors – the reflections of Skaia’s light, the tree lines and the gentle clouds in the sky can be seen from all over your land. They aren’t the only source of reflection, though. Drifting on the waves are small sheets of smoothed metal, also serving the same purpose. Some distort the reflection while others reflect it with perfect clarity. There may be puzzles to do with certain ‘mirrors’.

I'm sorry I took so long to create this land for your au! I hope I haven't made it hard on you or anything by taking so long 4 months jfc

You are the Prince of Void. The Prince, a class of Destruction. Void, an aspect of nothingness, secrets and obfuscation.

The Prince of Void, like any other prince, can be incredibly powerful, even from the get-go. With the right power up or weapon, they are set to dominate for the majority of the session. They can reveal secrets and just as easily destroy them. They would also be easily able to destroy enemies, particularly those who are ‘heartless’.

Secrets would be no problem for the Prince. With relative ease, especially once realized, they could smash the borders keeping secrets and information hidden from the world. They could be seen as inventors or designers, simply creating ideas that already existed but that weren’t yet seen. Similarly, they could be very good at convincing others by making them see the ideas that were hidden before.

As for the destruction of enemies, that is in the eye of the beholder. The Prince could easily decide that an enemy has a hole in their heart – heartless, really – and then act on that thought and destroy them easier than perhaps other enemies. In a different manner, they could take the holes in a broken heart and destroy that hole by filling it – The Prince could be very compassionate and trustworthy, and able to help a sore friend get back on their feet after a tragedy or death.

On the more physical plain, however, the Prince could destroy anything dark – positively anything that might convey ‘lack’. The Furthest Ring, or anything colored black or white – which are ‘lacking’ color.

You are the Prince of Void. Your Destiny is to Destroy Void. You are here to destroy those without real emotion or empathy, be a great friend and shoulder to cry on, and to become a powerful fighter and force to be reckoned with. That is your purpose.

The Land of Fur and Thunder is bright and crazed. A land where, instead of grass, there is fur of varying shades growing from the ground! The leaves of trees are soft fur, and a majority of the animals in this land are ones that are soft and furry, almost hidden in the ‘grass’ of the land.

That isn’t all, of course. Clouds that looks remarkably like cotton wool balls float the sky, dark as night. And constantly throughout your land is the sound of thunder, making it near impossible to hear anything at all. And with some clouds closer to the high mountain peaks than others, the thunder travels through your ground and shakes everything, making it near impossible to walk as well!

Goodness, sorry for taking so long! I hope this is good! (I applaud your choice of title and land they go very well together)

You are the Thief of Doom. The Thief, a class of Stealing for personal benefit. Doom, an aspect of influence and pessimism.

The Thief of Doom can be very powerful. They are able to steal the influence others have, using it to make themselves have more influence on the game session as a whole. They can also the pessimistic attitude of others, which can remove reservations and make enemies take greater risks.

Easily, a Thief of Doom could steal the influence others have on the game or battle, and inflict it on themselves to make themselves more important. Similarly, in taking influence from their opponents, they could make them easier to defeat.

Also, the Thief could still the pessimistic and wary side of opponents, essentially make them more optimistic and carefree, and thus more likely to take risks. This would make it easier to fight them and find weak spots and defeat them.

On the other hand, the Thief could steal physical doom – destruction and injuries, for one. This Could be done if a teammate were injured, and it would suit the Thief best to keep them alive. This side of Doom could have an effect on the Thief, inflicting scars from the injury they stole. Doom, after all, is an aspect seen to damage the wielder.

You are the Thief of Doom. Your destiny is to Steal Doom for yourself. You are here to become powerful, influence the session unlike any other, and steal the injuries of others. That is your purpose.

The Land of Graves and Dusk is a dark and empty land. Perhaps once it was a land shining with life and sunshine, but since that lost time your land has become a land of despair and shade. Dark clouds cover the entirety of your sky, blocking all sources of light from Skaia. What little light fills your land comes from small bioluminescent plants and animals, who don’t provide nearly enough light to support proper life. The majority of natural flora and fauna has died off as well, leaving a barren wasteland. Your few remaining consorts erected statues and monuments to those who died, as well as burying their own dead to create the Graves of your land.
