Tav Question

Pretend for a minute your Tav is an origin character. Origin characters have a main story with scenes in each of the three acts, as well as a three act romance structure (usually with check points in the form of their main story scenes but sometimes with affinity). I will be doing questions for each act, both the main story and the romance story.

What is your character’s ACT TWO main story? How do you meet them? What do you learn about them in act two? Do any special scenes trigger for them?

Welcome to Nowhere: Your First Monster

The wind howls in your ears, and yet you somehow still manage to hear the crunch of grass beneath your feet. The sky is perfectly blue— too blue, actually. How does that make any sense? You don’t know. You just think it’s… unnatural. It’s unnervingly bright to the point where it’s giving you a headache. Given the fact that there seems to be a windstorm occurring, you would think there would be at least a couple of clouds. 

You look up, where Gaia is marching forward against the gale. Bea is ahead of her, eagerly sniffing at the hill and inching slowly up it. While Gaia seems to hardly struggle at all, this is not the case with Emerson, who is trudging behind you. 

Gaia looks back at the two of you and shouts something. Unfortunately, the wind steals it away before it can reach you. Gaia turns back around and continues the climb. 

You pause, waiting a bit for Emerson to catch up. 

“Thanks,” he huffs once he reaches you. “I appreciate that.”

You nod, then turn to look for Gaia. They’ve disappeared from view, as has Bea.

“I wonder—” Emerson pauses for breath— “if they’ve reached the top yet.”

You shrug. “Maybe.”

“Well, it seems that the wind is dying down a bit.” They take in one more large breath. “Let’s get going before it picks back up again.”

It doesn’t take you too much longer to reach the top of the “hill.” Given its steepness, you would have preferred to call it an “oddly round cliff.” Gaia is sitting in the grass in the center of it, petting Bea. 

“Took you two long enough,” they say, standing back up. The wind has died down to a light breeze now, and you have no issue hearing them. 

“Did we?” You don’t think so…

“Sorry,” Emerson says sheepishly. “I held us up.”

You flinch. There’s something… there was something… fuzzy. 

“Rue?” Emerson looks at you with what you’ve come to know as an expression of concern. “You okay?”

You pause, waiting to see if it will come back. Did you imagine it? You must have…

“Yeah, I’m fine,” you say. 

“Well,” Gaia says, “I think I know where our monster is.” 

You look around. There isn't anything here. 

Gaia walks to the edge of the hill, pointing downward. “Just about halfway down the other side.”

Both you and Emerson follow, peering down. Halfway down the hill, a large wooden structure grows from the ground. It’s twisted at odd angles and filled with holes. 

A sharp pain erupts inside your head, then fades into a quiet fuzz.

You let out a yelp. 

Gaia, Emerson, and Bea all turn to you with a startled expression. Bea… 

It’s there! Again! Wait, but not anymore… It’s gone. Vanished. Was it ever there? Is it still there?

You blink. What were you thinking about again?

“Rue?” Emerson reaches out toward you. “What just happened?”

“Uhm… nothing, I think.”

“So why did you cry out like that?” Gaia asks, tilting their planet to the side. 

“I did?”

“Yes, you did,” Emerson says, looking even more concerned than before.

“Oh. Huh.”

There’s a brief moment of awkward silence before Gaia speaks. “So… are you two ready to fight your first monster?”

“About that—” Emerson wrings their hands together. “I don’t know if I’m really cut out for monster-slaying. I’m not very athletic, and well… I don’t know if I could actually, well, slay anything.”

“Even a horrifying, bloodthirsty monster?” Gaia asks skeptically. 

Emerson looks down. “I don’t know. Maybe. I just… never really anticipated or wanted this kind of life. I don’t have the right skills or mindset for it and—”

“Well, yes. I suppose being new to such a lifestyle could be quite daunting,” Gaia interrupts. “I won’t expect you to do any slaying— or fighting I guess— today. You can simply watch from the sidelines. That could count as a lesson of sorts. Besides, given that you have no experience, there’s a pretty good chance you would just get in the way.” Gaia ends their little tangent on a confident note. “Yes, you won’t have to do anything today. Come on then.” Gaia starts to make their way down the hill, and Bea eagerly bounds in front of them. 

Emerson hesitates, looking as though he wants to say something more. They don’t. Instead, they slowly start to follow Gaia toward the monster’s nest. 

You start to follow, but then stop. You’re distracted by something. What is it? You can’t remember, but it’s there.

I've been listening to Clips of Thunderbringer on YouTube and I am way too excited for a song that Zeus sings.

[mumblelard]

i found a hatchet half-buried in the muddy wetlands. i rinsed him off in some stormwater and carried him the rest of the way home. i realize now that i should have just let him be, but that didn't occur to me until it was too late. now, i suppose, we wait

addited: finnie agrees that nothing good can come of this
