[Interest Check] Skyseeker's Brigade - One - Nov 12 2021



WHO ARE THE SKYSEEKERS?
The Skyseeker's Brigade is a group of gembound hellbent on escaping the caves, which they see as a cruel prison keeping them from the true wonders of an endless paradise under a brilliant blue 'sky.' Only the leader and founder of the group has even seen the 'sky' for themselves, but promises that all followers will get to see it for themselves as soon as the caves' walls come crashing down..

The Skyseeker's Brigade focus on the training of destructive spells with the hopes of one day gathering enough gembound with said destructive spells in order to topple the caves in their entirety. As long as fellow Skyseekers aren't harmed in the process, these spells may be trained and perfectly in any manner the spellcaster wishes- no matter the collateral.

Physical combatants and strategists aren't exactly turned away, but their skills aren't as useful to the cause, either. Their talents will be more useful when the brigade inevitably starts gaining enemies, however.

The Skyseeker's Brigade is only organized as much as they need to in order to function effectively. They have a leader, a couple of well-trusted gembound who act as deputies, and then basically everyone else. The group is loose-knit, and members are allowed to affiliate with other groups as long as they still stay loyal to the Brigade.


ANYTHING ELSE?
Any of this stuff may change as I develop this both in and out of rp! Any suggestions would be appreciated as well!

Ooc, The Skyseeker's Brigade is meant to be a more antagonistic group, while trying to stay away from the 'murderhobo' archetype. While your oc doesn't have to be 'evil' or even destructive to join the group, the group as a whole are going to lean towards chaotic neutral at the LEAST, and the leader is outright an anarchist.

The group will be lead by One or a new OC i'll be making, depending on what I end up deciding doing. I have talked with CJ and planned a thing that'll happen. The 'thing thread' itself will probably have to be private/solo, but a follow up thread afterwards will be open and may end up being the group formation thread.

The group colors are going to be sky blue + either grey, darker blue, or off-white. The groups name itself may change but I'd like it to reference the sky in some way.

Group spell is also WIP, but here are some ideas I have.

Mirage of Above - Med int Light/Arcane/Pressure?? - User summons a mirage of a blue sky, complete with faint wind and the sun's warmth.

Solar Flare - Med int Fire - user summons a small fireball midair. It starts fairly small, but expands up to 2 feet before dissipating, lighting anything flammable that it touches and temporarily blinding any who look at it.

Windstorm - med int pressure - A radius around the user is suddenly filled with powerful winds, strong enough to knock gembound off their feet and send debris flying. The airspace directly surrounding the user remains calm- as long as they can stay focused!

Coding by Lizz!

ahem

i feel like mirage would fit in lovely here also BUT

i also think it would be FASCINATING to see fisher meet one of these skyseekers. fisher has been around for a long time, yes, but the notion of something *NEW*? something BEYOND the very caves? why, fisher has always been up for a challenge....... he's also the textbook definition of chaotic neutral, and incredibly destructive leaning, so i just... i would like to see him have a conversation, yknow..... see if maybe....... they could get him on board. NOW... fisher has a pre-existing judgement of most birds (one of his biggest rivals being a bird, back in the day), but i highly doubt that will do anything but spur him on further. i could see him being antagonistic AND cooperative, on a good day, at the same time, and i just think he'd bring some fun energy as long as the dynamic hits well.

also like, if anyone wants to mess with the skyseekers, well. he's a force to be reckoned with.

there's also his daughter, ashtoreth, who i think would be fascinated by the idea of the sky, but she's more likely to bridge an alliance between her current group (the bonebound) and this one, rather than leave her current group.

lastly, it makes me quite sad because it seems unlikely for orarian to really interact with this group, but orarian would love stories of the sky. the sea and the sky are two halves of a whole and the orarian has always looked to the glistening surface of their home with wonder and fascination, i think it would just be very curious. maybe one day...

@Fisher
Oughohoho,, all of those ideas are DELISH. Any character(s) you wanna get involved with the group will be welcome! We can plot things out specifically in DMS if you'd like.

@Muzrothun
Cool! The more the merrier!
