Session 1 Team DESCENDANT TALKSPRITES

I fnally got around to designing my session 1 team's descendants.  I'm really proud of them all, and I hope you enjoy reading up on them!  Fyrfly and Cedmir are going to be very important in the future, so I'd pay close attention to them.

The Original Team:  Session 1 Team TALKSPRITES

~

Fyrfly - Fyrfly is a rather quiet she-troll who would prefer to find a peaceful solution more than a physical one.  She is the leader of her team, though she has trouble getting them to work together.  To be more precise, getting them to work with her moirail, whom everyone harbors fear and dislike for.  As a result, not much progress has been made in their session, and game-related things are more or less on a hiatus.  With this free time, she stays mostly with her moirail and attempts to keep him from hurting anyone and vice versa.  She occasionally meets with Savana and they train to help Fyrfly better control and develop her powers of light, which seem stronger than Savana's own.  Fyrfly is secretly afraid of becoming a blackblood like the Uptonas before her, and as a result, completely refuses to use any of her shadow powers although she gained all three of her blood colors very early on in life.  She also refuses to fly and will try to make do with what she can on the ground, rather than face her fear of heights.  She'll often put on her headphones instead, and just try to keep herself calm with music, or even just the silence.  She mostly does this to keep herself from hearing the evil voices associated with her blackblood.  Due to all of this stress, she's a very reserved, quiet, emotionless, and unhappy she-troll.  Also, like all Uptonas, she has her fair share of scars.  The ones on her neck she put there herself after a series of troubling dreams where she saw an Uptona being strangled (a foreshadowing of Savana's death), and the one on her forehead hidden by her head, is a scar in the shape of a cross as reference to the Church of Light.

Ashera - Ashera at first seems to be a kindly, polite, helpful she-troll whose generosity knows no bounds.  However, she has a nasty habit of expecting some sort of compensation for her "help" and other deeds.  If nothing is given to her in return for completing a task, she'll become towards that individual and will refuse to help them until she's repaid.  She keeps close track of her debts and favors which often causes her to forget about or misplace other things, much to her annoyance.  However, she is very resourceful and gets her work done promptly.  When she isn't working or doing "favors" she's studying the arts or relaxing and being pampered, usually by those who need to repay her and haven't been able to come up with any other kind of compensation.

Palaeo - Palaeo is a very tomboy-ish she-troll.  She's down and dirty and often gets into scraps.  She's one of the team's best fighters and can be resourceful when it comes to weaponry, often obtainng her item of offence in the spur of the moment rather than carrying it with her as she prefers traveling light.  She is very straight forward and often to the point due to her strong belief in efficiency.  However, she's also very curious and believes more things should involve her.  If she wants to know something and no one's spilling, she'll snoop or spy to get the information that she wants, and will sometimes casually drop hints at what she knows to others.  She does also suffer from a bit of a dislike for strictness, and will often be difficult or uncooperative when ordered about.  It's better to let her think that things are her idea instead of anyone else's.

Scolec - Scolec is a pretty relaxed he-troll.  He believes that hard work will always pay off and is usually the one to convince his team to overcome certain struggles through reasoning and small speeches.  The others look to him often as a sort of "second in command" as Fyrfly is usually busy attending to personal matters.  Scolec is normally tolerant as well, except for when it comes to trolls being lazy.  He also has a great dislike for small creatures that get into everything and leave their excrement about where any troll could come into contact with it.  As a result, he'll often feed any he finds to his lusussprite or his planet's consorts.  When he isn't looking for lusus food, he's involved in weapon maintenance, and while he's not extraordinarily exceptional with firearms, he's still the best on his team.

Cedmir - Cedmir is a very, very unusual troll, not to mention freakishly tall.  He's extremely violent and unpredictable, and it's better to keep well away from him or else you could become his next target.  He hardly says a word--not that anyone could really understand him with his gas mask on.  No one really knows why he wears it.  Some think that Fyrfly gave it to him to protect him from any smoke he might inhale should she be unable to control his arsonist nature.  He will burn literally anything and everything just to watch the flames afterward.  He is driven by the fear of others as much as the voices he has before claimed speak to him through the flames.  They tell him to do bad things as well as give him surprisingly good advice.  He used to wear a straight jacket upon the beginning of the game, until the flames from a fallen meteor singed the arms enough for him to work out of the fabric, and he never was put back in one.  He'll often patrol his planet with his hellish "woofbeast" he's dubbed Ceregrowl.  He makes sure that none of the other trolls can get to his planet, for if he finds them there, he'll burn them alive.  He absolutely hates everyone aside from Fyrfly, and often becomes enraged at the sight of his own teammates, making him a liability.

Vanova - Vanova is a bit of a wild child, which is to say that he actually lives wild.  He hunts for his food and clothing, and lives off of natural resources around him.  He finds a thrill in hunting, and will often try to persuade others to join him.  He also has a knack for telling stories due to his excitable, happy personality.  It isn't odd to see him surrounded by others as he animatedly recounts tales of epic and daring proportions, nor is it strange to see him hanging onto every single word uttered by someone else telling a story.  Unlike those before him in his bloodline, he isn't very good with his fire powers, and finds them ultimately unreliable for anything other than lighting a fire pit or singing things to keep them from fraying.

Ezzhno - Ezzhno's a fairly ironic troll.  He enjoys calling himself an egotist just to illicit reactions from others, fooling them into believing he's really stuck up before having them get to know him better as a very chill, down to earth, and street smart troll.  He is a firm believer in self-expression, and, as a result, has several facial piercings as well as wild hair and very bright clothes.  He's actually really easy to get along with, though he does have a harder time getting along with trolls who are very openly intelligent due to his dislike of education and, more specifically, reading.  When he's stressed out or feeling frisky, he'll go out and vandalize things--shatter windows, paint graffiti, etc.

Actaon - Actaon seems to be very unlike the other Somsans.  He's much more laid back and tech savvy than any before him in his bloodline, and would rather relax and game all day than actually do anything to help the team, including mentoring Fyrfly to help her control her powers which is why Savana took over her training.  When Actaon does contribute, he often helps on a massive scale; he's able to manipulate the smallest and most mysterious of all matter--dark matter.  He has also devised weapons that allow him to separate different organisms at an atomic scale, though it takes a very long time to charge, and isn't used much as a result.  His own magical abilities are very weak for a limeblood, and leave him tired and lethargic for days afterward.  One notable flaw of his is that he takes his blood's discrimination for granted, not treating it as much of a threat.  He'll even gripe about having to stick his neck out for his own self to the others on his team.

Andora - Andora is a bit of a trouble maker . . . . actually, "a bit" is an understatement.  She often misplaces others' things on purpose, and will attempt to turn them on one another, just for her amusement, all while pretending she never did anything wrong.  She's a sociopath in every aspect--she manipulates others, lies, strives to get her way, and appeals to others emotions rather than their intellect.  Her disregard for order has, at times, caused trouble for the team, though her mischief went unnoticed due to Cedmir's antics, frustrating her.  She ended up causing chaos on her own planet, corrupting it in the game, and making it a hot spot for the universe's havoc.  That, coupled with the fact that the game has many "unfair" twists and situations, has satiated her lustful craving for disorder, and now she instead busies all of her time with game-related matters although the others do not.  She's one of the most progressed in the session, and is continuing to grow in echeladder rankings, which could mean disaster for the others if she continues unchecked.  She also has a history of trying to side with the team's enemies, though she always betrays even them in the end.

Jezbel - Jezbel is a she-troll you may regret meeting.  At first, she comes off as a serene celibate, then slowly morphs into a flirty, lusty little she-witch.  She often tries to seduce others due to a lack of intervention on her lusus' part, and because of it she has few real friends.  When she's done flirting with and using someone, she'll act as though every negative thing about her that they claim to be true is in reality false.  This has led many to wonder if she's even trustworthy or if she's as pure and innocent as she claims to be.  At least she pulls her weight around on the team . . . just be sure to go to someone else if you need help, advice, or someone to listen to your secrets and worries.

Kanjud - Don't let his coolkid appearance fool you, Kanjud is actually really nice and caring.  He often hangs out with the others and acts as one of the trolls to ease tensions among the team, though he absolutely detests Cedmir.  He can keep his head in a fight, and is skilled with his ice pick, not to mention the shards of ice he keeps in his captchaloguge.  He's currently learning how to make his own remixes and ill beats in hopes of one day owning and djing in his own club.  When he isn't acting cool, he's often chilling on his icy planet snuggling up to a warm fire and hugging some of his many teddy bears that he keeps secret from absolutely everyone.  He also has a habit of making absolutely terrible/strange jokes that make zero sense to everyone, though he seems to enjoy them when he isn't mulling over paradoxes.  One such joke of his had to do with him comparing his coolnees to nitroglycerin which no one got except for him, apparently.  It even inspired him to make his trollhandle.

Hidrun - Hidrun is a very shy and quiet she-troll who would much rather be left alone to read than surrounded by so many trolls.  She often tries to avoid hiding, and is currently receiving help from her team to work up the courage to fight any enemies they run into.  She's very intelligent for a young troll, and will often resort to cunning to deal with matters than face them head on.  She's also rather modest and a bit of a pushover, though she can turn into quite the Hellian if provoked, as she has elemental control over the weather, and will often create powerful thunderstorms when angered.  It's always the quiet ones, isn't it?

Faolan - Faolan is, for the most part, a pretty agreeable highblood.  He's friendly and gets on well with others.  He's also very skilled in combat and is quick on his feet.  He likes belonging to a pack, making him one of the best team players, not to mention the fact that he helps others simple to please them or earn a positive reaction.  However, if one is to show ungratefulness or blow him off, he gets irritable, and that irritation can grow quickly and come to a peak.  This "peak" is known as his feral side, or his "were-transformation".  He becomes very violent and aggressive, growling and causing all sorts of problems and needless destruction.  Just keep him happy and away from pawbeasts, which he seems to detest for some reason.

Ibanus - Ibanus is a really creepy troll.  For one, no one knows if he's really sane or not, as his eyes are always red.  For another, he says and does questionable things such as modifying his own mouth to make it jagged in appearance.  Even his odd obsessions over arachnids and different kinds of blood-like beverages put other trolls on edge.  He mostly resides in dark places where he talks to himself and sips smoothies.  However, his strength is unrivaled and the others both respect and fear him for it--they have a rumor that he actually spikes his drinks with troll blood.

Lamian - Lamian is a relatively okay she-troll, however, she does carry with her a fair amount of royalblood pride.  She'll insult others more or less by accident, and scoffs at many aspects of land-dweller life.  Fortunately, she isn't very violent unless it comes to a strife, so the trolls on her team feel safe around her, and even forgive her for her careless transgressions.  She's a master of stealth and can really get into a troll's mind . . . literally.  She's able to read thoughts and control a troll's body and actions.  She doesn't often use these powers when hunting, however and will instead hunt or "fish" with her hatchets, spilling her preys blood as she flays them in the water, luring in sharks.  She often shares her kills with them as she has grown close to the great predators of the ocean due to her upbringing.  Her attachment to them is more affectionate than sadistic, though, and she doesn't just kill mindlessly.  In her free time she finds pleasure in treasure-hunting and just plain old swimming--the water keeps her cool on hot days.  She really dislikes being high up or away from water as it tends to dry her out, and hurts her gills.
