First: Ritual Beginnings
Who: Caster and OPEN
What: Arriving / Exploring / Trying to make her magic work
When: Throughout December
Where: Various locations
Warnings: None yet, will edit later if need be
1) Arrival
[From the Moment Caster had been unceremoniously dumped into the bay and realised she was not only alone but without any of her powers, she'd been pacing around the shores trying to get an answer for what on earth was going on.
She was in something of a stunned shock - was this an effect of Archer's attack, a rift caused by the Grail itself or something else entirely?
How could it block her magic like that?
Her first priority, though, was the futile effort of regaining contact with Souichirou. And to that end, she will be cornering people to get answers. A skeletal dragon quietly followed at her side, nipping at her hand lightly as it sensed her distress.]
The man I was with before I arrived here- you will tell me where he is.
2) Caravan Journey
[By the time she gets to the caravan journey though, she's calmed down. Still mistrustful of anyone and everyone, but calmer. She'd taken a seat for the trip near the back of the caravan, staring out as the cliffs got further away... Her skeletal dragon rested it's head on her lap, the glow shining out where it's eyes should have been fading, presumably as it took a nap.
Caster had bundled up the supplies she'd arrived with and hidden them beneath her cloak, holding onto them protectively- or maybe possessively, it was hard to tell. The most obvious was a tall golden staff and the strange, ceremonial dagger with the twisted blade loosely gripped in her hand. If anyone cared to look more closely, there was the hint something else made of gold she was keeping as well hidden as she could.
The last thing she needed was anyone recognising the Golden Fleece itself.]
I wonder how long this journey will be...I assume you've been drawn here against your will, as well?
3) Practicing Magic
[Having to relearn magic from scratch was... a pain, but it was something she intended to do as soon as she possibly could. So for now, she found somewhere just on the outskirts of the Brocéliande forest where she could sit and focus. Perhaps to start, maybe she could try and replicate some of the power she knew from before?
For the time being, she was letting dark energies flow around her hand, twisting into shapes that could almost be sigils but- nope, with a crackle the magic snapped back and singed her glove.]
Hmph...this is frustrating.
...I'm getting impatient with this, aren't I?
[Her familiar, meanwhile, is wandering over to whoever happens to be nearby and attempt to nudge them over to join - after all, two people practicing is better than one right? It's helping!]
4) When Your Familiar Decides to 'Help'
[When she wasn't practicing her magic, Caster spent a fair bit of time wandering around town and looking suspicious - the long dark cloak and hood covering half her face really didn't lend itself to her looking particularly trustworthy. Not that she seemed to be bothered by this, or care for that matter.
She needed to find a place to stay, and then investigate what sort of magical artefacts and other supplies were around in the local marketplaces. Not that she could afford, well, any of it yet, but nothing wrong with a bit of window shopping right?
Trouble was, her familiar could tell that there was still someone she had been looking for since she arrived. And, given it had no real idea who they were, it made its best effort to try and help by finding... well, anyone who had anything in common with her Master at all. Dark and/or short hair? Must be them. Glasses? Definitely. Male? Yup that's them. Human - or even just vaguely human looking? Well it could be them!
So, pretty much anyone will find a skeletal dragon with a creepy glow within its skull and chest wandering over to them whilst Caster is distracted, in order to investigate them a little more closely.]
X) Wildcard!
[Feel free to PM me if there's anything particular you had in mind.]
[OOC: For test drive people - happy to make any of the threads canon, just let me know!]
