Ancient's Links
He's kind of hard to read, but he's got a nice ass and is fun to hang around. I'd take him out for drinks any day.
My best bud, by far. He's always up for anything I throw at him and usually meets it with his signature grin. I'd probably have ditched this place if it wasn't for meeting him. Mixed blessing, I guess, but he's worth the trouble.
A lovely, if a bit out of touch, bot. You'd never know he'd been slumbering for some time from looking his gorgeous, masculine frame. It's the pinnacle of engineering, with both function and form. Although I'll coach him in the way of social and cultural etiquette, I've every intention of helping Ancient to discover his physical and emotional capabilities.~
"She's always talking about my pecs."
"If his moobs were any bigger, I'd start calling him my sister."
An easy-going leather worker, born and raised on Vakaro like any other Makar. He is the cousin of Dalain, and later leaves Vakaro after a visit from his cousin and the man's strange new 'friends'. Curious about the rest of the world, he begins to travel and sell his wears.
"Ig's always telling me I make bad decisions...Deva's probably the baddest I ever made. He tried to kill me, sure, who hasn't? But there's just something about him...gotta admit, sometimes I'm tempted by that bastard no matter how nuts he is."
"There's something dreadfully enthralling about making a Vena-Dura shiver. By whatever means necessary."
"What an annoying, stuck-up old grandpa. He needs to ditch the bow-tie; what is this, the 1920s? Okay but I'd totally tap that...don't tell anyone I said that."
"I've been asked a few times whether I regret taking that boy under my wing. He's not a bad person, but severely lacking manners... and working morales. He has a lot to learn and if I didn't teach him, I doubt anyone else would."
A gigantic fellow, confident as they come. Still half a child, but he's got his heart in the right place. I don't mind having him around, even if his sense of humor can be a little offensive at times.
"He's tiny and quiet, but I like him. He's good to his animals and he's pleasant company. He would be welcome on Vakaro, I'm sure, so long as someone got him some stilts. HAH."
"She's no girl I'd normally go for, I must've been real fucking drunk that night...Still, gotta say she's a strong woman. A friend. Worlds fucking better person than I am. I wouldn't trust Maddie with anyone else."
"He acts tough, but that won't hide the fact that he's too afraid to meet his own daughter. If he'd been a worse man, I wouldn't want him to, either."
"Designation Ignas il'Zenya is of Noxxan origin. He is...considerably paternal. I detect he cares deeply for this unit. He prepares for us sustenance that we do not require; it is enjoyable. We are beginning to feel...at home."
"Seeing Lü for the first time was like seeing a ghost... a lot of ghosts. There aren't a ton of folks around anymore who remember the Rayos as they were. I do... all too well. Lü may be something a little different, but I can't help but feel they're a missing piece to a bigger puzzle. The question is: are any of us, Lü included, really prepared for the answer?"
"Designation Nemaclyde Ay'sen is of Ghyllian origin. He is considerably less socialized than other members of this unit. We are unsettled by his affinity for potentially lethal chemical experimentation. Still...we are like him, spending our lives in a laboratory...We can...relate to him."
"They remind me of home. And jelly. I like them."
"Everything about him is so big. A big body, big stomach, big heart. I'm glad he's there."
"He's kind of a brat. Reminds me of my little sister, Peta-Hal. I think he's got a good heart; better than he knows, anyway. And he can eat almost as much as I can, which is pretty impressive. He's a nice kid."
"Where do I even start with this big lug? I don't usually trust such young pups any further than I can throw 'em, but Tok walks the walk as well as he talks the talk and I'd follow him to hell and back. Hey, he's gonna need someone to patch his ass up in the meantime, right?"
"I've known Ig a long time, he basically saved my life...He's a great man, old as fuck too so he knows his shit. I wouldn't rather have anyone else at my flank when I'm charging head first into Shragg hives or evading Imperata patrols. And he can cook, so what's not to love?"
"Designation Averi-Tok is of Vena-Dura origin. He is very large and, at times, very loud. We are, at times, confused by his sentiments of...'humor'. But we suspect he is very loyal to this unit and we have been treated with great respect...Although we are unsure of his meaning when referring to us as 'glowing dildo'."
"Its weird having a robot on board...er, an android. Clone? I don't fucking know. Anyway, the kid's genuine enough. Not so great with being around us 'biologicals' yet, but they're trying. Pretty sure they were made as some kinda insane living weapon, but hey, so long as they're on our side, what's the harm, right?"
"The individual I'm targeting and the whole reason I've taken on this ludicrous 'escort' persona for Overseer knows how long. He is one of my 'clients'. Thus far, at least, he seems fond of my services. I suppose there are worse flogs I could be sleeping with."
"That escort I've been seeing... I doubt that the persona I'm interacting with is his true self, but it's amusing nonetheless. According to my informants, he could be the assassin who's after my life - I would not be surprised. Call me reckless, but this knowledge makes every meeting more thrilling. I wonder how long we will be able to continue this game?"
[Snow Leopard] Laid-back courtesan and unofficial guard of the brothel where he works.
A half-breed Vieka, initially raised in the Eylipsus Clan alongside his mother. He later rejected the xenophobic mentality and fled, taking shelter in a remote cabin. He is considered a deserter among the Vieka, and would be killed on sight.
A proud Makar warrior, son to a crippled father that resulted in him relying on himself from a young age. His homosexuality ultimately led him to leave Vakaro.
