[monarchofthedamned]

I’m thinking of putting more depth into the whole “Alastair can turn into a dragon” thing, specifically: (1) Him getting stuck in dragon form; (2) Him reaching dragon “maturity” and having a major growth spurt in dragon form; (3) Fighting in dragon form, and; (4) Alastair turning scales he sheds into armor and weapons for himself.

Empyrean Verse

Taylor Lillian Borelli is the daughter of former famed Tyrrish dragonrider Colonel Catherine Borelli, and Alessio Borelli, a Scribe from Cordyn. She was fourteen years old when the Tyrrish Rebellion began, and her family was split apart, as it seemed that Catherine had chosen to back Navarre, while Alessio fled to Cordyn; Catherine died in the Rebellion, effectively orphaning Taylor, as Alessio was safe beyond Navarre's borders and jurisdisction.

However, in a cruel twist of fate, Taylor was one of the one hundred and seven Tyrrish children who was Marked when Fen Riorson and his cohorts were executed by dragonfire. Her swirling black relic covers the back of her left hand and travels up to her shoulder, and a few days later, she and the others were informed of the decision that they would all be Conscripted on their twentieth year to join the Riders Quadrant.

Thankfully, Taylor was fostered by a Navaaran family who was willing to train her in hand to hand combat and weapons. Despite being the smallest Marked child at only five foot two, she is possibly the most ruthless and bloodthirsty, making her an asset to Xaden Riorson after she crosses the Parapet.

At Threshing, Taylor bonds with the oldest and largest red dragon, a Scorpiontail named Fiadhaich, also known as Fia. Her relic is of a red dragon winding down her right arm, tail curled around her wrist, and she favors axes as her weapons, as well as a crossbow. When she eventually begins channeling, she is a signet replicator, meaning that she has the ability to replicate any signet she stands witness to, as well as enhancing the signets of those she has a particularly strong bond with, so long as they are in close physical proximity. Her signet is so rare that it hasn't been seen in over two hundred years.

Verse Info: Supernatural

true form vs a human disguise

Overview

Bound to the ring of lust, they happily explore the world to feed on mortals. When they are disguised as a mortal, they tend to work in either cafes or wherever they can find prey or get people interested in them. Being an incubus, they rely on sexual encounters to feed, though they certainly enjoy the more romantic sides of human relationships, finding that it makes the encounters all the more sweet to them. For mortals or other demons that they find particularly interesting or develop a bond with, they at least consider trying to have a child with them or at least make the relationship less fully about sex and possibly more emotionally intimate.

Powers

Dream manipulation: exactly what it says on the tin, though they can also enter dreams as needed

Immortality: Mortal form can be 'killed', but they just go back to hell and recover from the blow

Healing: If an injury doesn't send them back to hell, they can just recover from it quickly

Sexual inducement: They can manipulate arousal. Read into that what you will.

Shapeshifting: They can change their form, but they don't really enjoy it unless they need to out of hunger. Can swap into a more feminine form and even reproduce, but they really don't like the idea of it.

Flight: They have wings. Do I need to add more to that?

Telepathy: Use it to find preferences either for seduction or for their appearance.

Superhuman strength/speed/stamina: As a demon, they're much more physically capable than mortals, though they prefer to not have to use it... well, the strength and speed.

Life force consumption: Really the root of their powers. They steal bits of it from the mortals that they prey on.

Seduction: Can compel mortals to love them and to bend to their will. It isn't the same as mind control.

Possession: Sort of a last resort for them or used solely for the sake of their contracts, but they can take full control of a mortal for a time, but they find it distasteful.

Notes

Most information is coming from this site [HERE] to make it easier with some edits for my preference.

Speaks in 3rd person when in a mortal disguise and drops it when in their true form regardless of who they are with

Heavily prefers their androgynous/somewhat masc form over any other and gets pouty when made to take a more feminine or more overtly masculine one for too long

Their weak points are the base of their horns, the base of their tail, and the tips of their ears when in their demon form, but all three are rather sensitive in general

Still as good at cooking and confections in this verse as they are their main. Mostly bc you know, fastest way to the heart is through the stomach, and a lot of foods are or were treated as aphrodisiacs at one point or another.

Back in hell, they're sort of middle of the road in hierarchy, being made to be a pet for one of the higher ranked demons working under Asmodeus as a treat for them. Due to the amount of incubi, succubi, and other lesser demons under the Duke's command, they're all more or less free to do as they wish, the favorites, like them, especially.

Due to being a favorite, though, they are pressured to create cambion for him or more of their kind in order to bolster his ranks among the Dukes of that ring, though they're weary of it.

When using their dream manipulation, they often use their domain back in hell as a setting and take on the form they do there with golden chains dressing them with a skirt and long blonde hair.

The Dark Age of Hell

When the Great Flood brought the First Sinners to Hell, Lucifer got the idea of Hell being a purgatory for these poor Souls. Surely his newly formed realm was meant for these Souls to learn their lessons, cleanse themselves and earn the right to reincarnate to try again for Heaven, yes? So, newly crowned as King of Hell, Lucifer jumped at the chance to be a good ruler, doing everything in his power to try and help the Sinners, and for a while, it almost looked like they could succeed.

Almost.

Despite the progress made, Lucifer began to slowly realize that none of these Sinners were reincarnating. In fact, the more Sinners that arrived, the more wicked they were becoming, even being a bad influence on the ones already there. He tried contacting the Heavenly Council, to ask for help, but he was rebuffed and ignored. The Sins were busy running their own Rings, so Lucifer sought the help of Paimon, the King of the Ars Goetia, to try and find a way to help the SInners. Except what Paimon discovered was that the humans were blaming Lucifer for Hell to begin with.

In fact, the Sinners were blaming Lucifer for ending up in Hell entirely.

All of those years, all of the blood, sweat and tears, all of the hard work that Lucifer put into trying to save these damned creatures, trying to hold onto the hope that his rebellion to love Lilith and grant the humans free will would be worth it, it all came crashing down on Lucifer, who snapped, and turned into his third form, a monstrous bird with flaming wings and he lay waste to the Sinners in retribution.

The Punishment Ring was created in that moment. Lucifer assigned special demons to torture the Sinners for their crimes. Those who avoided the Punishment Ring were now walking on eggshells around their King, terrified of being torn apart or outright devoured for the crime of simply existing. The sweet dreamer that Lilith had known was consumed by a creature of bitterness and hatred; to Lucifer, if the humans wanted the Devil, they were going to get the Devil.

The Dark Age of Hell lasted four thousand years. Lucifer was a cruel and heartless ruler, showing affection only for the Sins, the Goetia and Lilith. He gave more respect to the Hellborn than he did the Sinners, to the point where a Soul could breathe wrong in his proximity and suddenly they would brutally murdered. He relished in the terror that he caused, but over time, his depression began to take root in his mind, and slowly, the bloodshed began to dissipate.

There's not a Sinner alive now who remembers the Dark Age, but the Hellborn remember; the Sins and the Goetia remember. Lucifer still holds some of that darkness within him, ready and willing to use it if he has absolutely no choice. But his bitterness towards the Sinners needs to be worked on; while many of them he hates, he knows Charlie is right. Some of them can be redeemed, and they need the chance and support to do so.

V:Fire in her veins

Verse with @amarvelousmencgerie and her Daemon

Birth: roughly 93 AC

Name: Princess Alaena Targaryen.

Dragon: Vermithor, claimed at the age of ten when her great grandsire passed.

Family: Born the eldest child of Viserys I Targaryen and Aemma Arryn, Older sister to Rhaenyra and Kyra. Half-sister to

Appearance: Like her grandmother Alyssa Targaryen She has darker blonde hair than the rest of her family, a pale honey-blonde with bright violet eyes. She stands at 5'6 at her tallest with a curvy muscle build weighing more than she looks at around 140.

Bio: short info

Even as a young child Alaena had as much fight in her as the famed dragonlords of old valyria. Strong, quick, and spirited. Alaena was already too "wild" for the court's liking, often slipping away from her nursemaids and tutors to go off on adventures with the servant's children-treating them as she would the children of other highborns. Fiercely stubborn many struggled with the handful of a princess, earning a bite or kick whenever anyone tried to force her to do something she didn't want to do. Of course it wasn't until she started to try and sneak into the dragon pit that her parents truly worried.

Some thought she to be as beautiful as Viserra Targaryen though though she was fair from vein, favoring her riding leather's over the gowns the count demanded she wear. It wasn't until she was a teen that she came to own her beauty.

Fair from the son her father longed for Alaena struggled to connect with him, being closer to Daemon. Feeling wanted for the first time in her young life she looked her happiest when he was near. It wasn't until she was 16 that her feelings started to stir. At a battle to understand this burning desire growing within her Alaena colored her hair like a raven and snuck away to a pleasure house.

Favoring a beautiful redhead over the men yet her time with her was cut short before she was yanked out of the bed. The rouge prince standing before her.

It cannot be said who kissed who-if it had been Alaena's doing or his. But the desire growing inside her blazed to life at the sight of him taking her in. He took her away from the pleasure house but they didn't return to the castle as they were quickly lost to one another's embrace. It was hard to stay from him after then. He was her's and she was his as far as Alaena cared. Yet it wasn't long before they were discovered-and by her father no less. Right before her eyes they were ripped apart, sent to other ends of the Vale and married to the first people the king could find. But not before she was forced Moontea. And having been two month's since she bled, Alaena heart had been shuttered completely.

Not wanting to have her new husbands baby's when she was still mourning the lost of her first Alaena made herb-infused oils to use on him in bed that kept him from having children.

dragon age verse (also on carrd)

a very long time ago there was a creature of bloodlust. How he came to be is unknown. Some could say that he was a spirit who gained a body, some would say a demon. But that does not matter. All that matters was he was deemed too dangerous. too unpredictable, that eventually he was killed - and then FORGOTTEN. (but those who were once spirits are not so easily killed.)

He existed, fragments of himself spread far and wide, seeking hosts to keep his essence alive. One of his hosts was a powerful blood mage who gladly took in this spirit for he wanted the power it gave. This blood mage had a baby and through some kind of ritual; this fragment of a spirit was put into the little baby girl.

But whatever their plans were for the child was disrupted. The blood mage was killed; and the baby left alone as the fragment settled inside its new host. The baby was found by a man named Gorion; a Mage from Tevinter. He rescued her and raised her as if she were his own child.

He was murdered when she was barely 20, he was protecting her from an unknown attacker. He died, she fled. She couldn’t go back to her home; Tevinter was no place for an elf (especialyl without Gorion there to protect her from the system.)

So she went travelling; leaving Tevinter and finding allies and enemies. Eventually she found the one who killed Gorion and had been hunting her. A human named Sarevok. They fought, and she killed him.

And the essence inside of her grew larger for it.

For a short while, Ryn was able to live in peace. As much peace as an elf & apostate could live in, anyway. Until she was captured by a blood mage named IRENICUS for six months. He tortured her; killed her friends, and did something to her - to the spirits essence inside of her. But she escaped, and ran. She needs to kill him but she needs to regain her strength first.

INQUISITION

She's passing through Ferelden when it happens. She was not planning to stick around - it was hard being an apostate anywhere but Ferelden and Orlais were not places she wanted to linger. but the conclave explodes, a hole is torn in the sky and rifts in the veil open up everywhere with demons escaping and attacking innocents. also can't forget the rogue templars and mages that seem to attack anything that breathes.

she can't just leave. she can be found in the hinterlands, fighting back demons that keep coming from a rift and trying to protect some villagers.

she can be recruited into the inquisition, though she might be a bit wary of the organisation in general.

eventually she'll catch wind of irenicus in orlais. she intends to go deal with him herself but depending on her approval level with the inqusitior, she might ask for help. or just leave without a word.

VEILGUARD

you need help killing ancient elven mages? she might actually be able to help with that. if you can find her, that is. she travels a lot. she's done work with the lords of fortune, spent time with the veil jumpers, has helped the shadow dragons free slaves.

but she has knowledge on ancient elven civilisation, people, mages, tools. not whole pieces. fragments of memories she's gained from the fragments of the Forgotten One that lives inside her.

she can use it to help fight the evanuris. it can use her to get more power.

Alastair Verse: Prince of Hearts

Have you heard of the banished prince? The Prince of Hearts? Love ‘em and leave ‘em, they say the Prince of Hearts does. They whisper he’s the prince of broken hearts, but in truth he wants to find love. He grants wishes in his dilapidated, mobile castle in exchange for three kisses. However, he’s truly trying to find his true love that will break the curse on him causing his banishment. Their kiss will break his curse, turning him mortal once more.

headcanon. post-series & the capitol

personals and non-mutuals, please dni

effie does not return to the capitol after the war, or at least not forever. she knows that her life there will have to change significantly, and opts to not return to her normal society life, but do what she's good at-- plan, and boss people around.

commerce was formerly all dealt with through the capitol ( ex. lumber can't be shipped directly to district 12, it has to go through the capitol as the middle man ), so effie works on inter-district trade, specifically to get supplies and materials to the former district 12 so that they can start rebuilding. not everyone is thrilled with having a capitol citizen taking control of the rebuilding process, but if she can get katniss and haymitch to tolerate her, effie is sure she can get anyone to.

she's not the only capitol person to do this, but she is the first. effie's parents get involved in working on things from the capitol after traveling out to see the rebuilding work on district 12. seeing their daughter so dedicated to a cause-- dedicated enough that she fled the capitol, and then continued to help after the war-- inspires them, and the trinket family donates a large amount of money to help with the rebuild of district 12. supplies are bought, and workers are paid through the generosity of a country healing from war.

effie doesn't return to the capitol permanently when the rebuild is done. she opts to remain in district 12 and traveling amongst the districts, organizing trade and commerce between the districts and supporting district 12's mayor.

she doesn't completely lose her old self, though. while effie doesn't wear her extravagant wardrobe and wigs anymore, she is always seen with her signature high heels, and resumes wearing colorful clothes and makeup after the rebuild is done. Her clothes will always prioritize fashion over practicality, and she's fine with that.

A ZeldaTale Overview

So for a while now I have had a ZeldaTale crossover I just having put it into qords. This post is me making it public so I can write it with people. I am going to try and be cohesive and in order, but I highly reccomend asking any sort of clarification questions you have: Infact I yearn for you to do so.

As we all know, In the beginning the Goddesses made the land of Hyrule. Nayru Made the Law, Din made the Land, Farore made Life. This is a tale as old as Ocarina of time. Something else that seems pretty clear is, aside from Humanity, whom seems pretty much like Hylia's personal prefferred creation, each Golden Goddess has a race more directly attuned to them then any others.

The Grace and Order of the Zora, aligned with Nayru's thoughtful nature

The Strong and Honest Gorons, beating to their own drum with Din

The playful and adventurous Kokiri, Living fearlessly in a magic forest for Farore...

But what if that wasn't all?

The land existed before the war against demise. The world existed: Most importantly, people existed. The Races were much more intermingled, at first, differences not meaning much. But as time goes by, birds of a feather tend to flock together, and the tribes began to do their own thing. It is easy to gather with those who look more like yourself and have your similar needs; and it is easy to judge those who do not fit in the boxes society forms.

The goddesses tried not to interfere directly with their creation: They had already left a blessed power behind, but it was controlling to dictate what the people of the land should do. Farore was held back as she watched her first personal project be banished by those who could not abide different in her sisters creation.

Farore had made monsters, with the courage to be varied, and bravery to be kind. Hylia's Humans banded together exclusively, Nayru's Zora, though they were not known as such yet, were exclusive by nature of their aquatic lifestyle, and Din's unchanging Gorons, all ended up in conspiracy over this group that all looked so vastly different yet chose the same label. The Gorons found a place that did not suit them as well as the Volcano they now live, and spoke of it's caves to the humans. Perhaps they did not know what those caves would be used for then. The parella turned their backs when approached for sanctuary.

Humans lead the charge, fighting the Monsters they'd stopped trusting. It was the first war, and it was a short war, as Monsters where brave enough to be kind. Plenty escaped and found places to hide, some monsters of similar nature managing to clump together and later take on a new label as their offspring became more and more homogeneous. Some monster simply stuck to themselves and laid low, with small contact with others if any at all.

So many were trapped in that mountain the Gorons had found unfit, trapped by a Magic Barrier that kept them all in, protected by a shield they would never have asked for.

This war did not have time to become history, as the discord of it all was enough to draw Demise's desires out in the open. So many of the monsters who had not been sealed away were tricked under his wing, corrupted by choice or corrupted by force. they became what had been feared, and the strike back was fierce. Farore had watched the first war, held back by her sisters, and only able to add to the barrier to make sure her people were safe under that mountain.

Imagine her shock and outrage when a new war broke out, and Hylia herself stepped into action, making direct bonds with her creation, and subdueing the threat to them? How her sisters were silent when Farore spoke out against involvement, since this war was so clearly about the divine triangles, and not some 'trivial mortal matter'? The way the sacrifice of divinity to stop Demise was honored rather then condemned, all while Farore's people were the ones wiped out even further, or corrupted beyond recognition, or worst of all, copied as mindless minions without a soul to bolster the numbers.

A tiny sliver thanked the barrier, as at least some of her own were unchanged by this divine war. though trapped, at least they'd not been corrupted.

When all settled, Hylia's humans placed in the sky, and things settling... Farore's creations were the only one missing. there was some disguised resentment, and in pity for their sister, Nayru and Din decided she got a second chance to create. Not only would it help fill that gap the lack of 'normal' monsters left, but it would bring some light to a world crawling out of darkness.

So, with more thought then before, more uniformity, the kikwis were made. something of the forest, smart enough to not be so easily squished off, but lacking the courage of self that her original creations had been.

of course, the world was still changing. Things were flux. Nayru's Parella became the Zora, split evolution based on teh type of water they lived in. Din's Gorons didn't change much, but they became even more sturdy, until the majority where at an active volcano for living. Farore's Kikwis became more courageous with time, but still had a tendency to blend in. as humans repopulated the surface, they started mimicking people's form for security rather then their surroundings.

as society started growing, each of the golden goddesses gave their race a small boon. So that they'd not starve in their new landscape, Din gave Gorons the diet of the rocks they lived amongst, as she activated the volcano to help defend them beyond their strength. Nayru gave the Zora a guardian they tended to, a descendant of the leviathan of the sky designed for the water. Farore, having learned form before, gave her now-Kokiri a home and guardian where they could live eternally and freely.

Meanwhile, all that was left of Farore's original creation were hollow shells of senseless violence, unaware of the chaos that occurred on the land above. Aside from the barrier around the mountain to keep monsters in, there was a tribe, an offshoot of the sheikah that settled around the mountain as further guard. they remained even as the forest got thicker and more confusing with time, until they were basically as secluded by the lost woods as the monsters were by the barrier.

They still hold record and warning of the monster who killed a child in it's escape, though that's become more legend then history anymore. Some think the MOuntain is simply teh same as the woods- you enter, and you don't return, monsters or not.

Then one day... a child thought lost to the mountain returned, with news of how their legends were wrong, and a blessing non realized sepperate from the time wrapped around their soul.

Being trapped by a forest did not suit the Monsters any more then being trapped by a mountain, however. Thankfully, the Woods do have a means through, you simply need know the trick... or have a flower find it out for you. All that's left now is convincing people that the 'monsters' from beyond the wood aren't vicious violent beasts like Hyrule is used to. Perhaps a rebranding may be in order...

Good thing Frisk has a Goddess watching them and permitting the anomaly of time that had filled the barrier to persist even amongst the larger world, to a degree. The Kid so far had been responsible enough that the other goddesses hadn't raised concerns, at least...

[hatigave-a]

I need to put these into the carrd but .... some of my kids and vague concepts for bg3 verses:

Gilderoy. high half-elf. bard — college of lore. sage background. This verse would be so tightly knit to his 'main' bard verse where he's not very proficient with the control of his actual magic, but by merlin is he the best at vicious mockery. Not a tav character, more a volo.

James. human. paladin — oath of devotion oathbreaker. noble background. tav character who breaks his oath just before the start of the main storyline after chasing a pirate through a hurricane and in doing so needlessly ending the lives of those under his command.

Adelé. drow half-elf. rogue — thief. charlatan background. Very reluctant tav character who would very much prefer it if anyone else took lead ( but when they do she gets upset that things aren't being done her way. )

Victoria. mephistopheles tiefling. druid — circle of the moon. outlander background. Not a tav character, and a druid with dangerously low wisdom stats. A friendly companion who would spend half the journey in the shape of a cat if she could.

Verse Info: Regency Hero [Bridgerton/Regency]

[Please refer to his twin sister’s verse post as well for info]Alt fc: Sidney Park [Visage] CW: adultery/bastardy/infidelity, Born: 1798 Debut: 1815

Born in 1798 as half of a set of fraternal twins to the Queen of Lunaruz, a kingdom “heard of” but hidden in another dimension.

Alastair and his twin sister were legitimized by their mother and “step”-father, making Alastair and Aislin royalty by title as well.

At age 13 (1811), Alastair and his sisters moved to London to join high society and eventually get his sisters suitors, particularly his eldest sister — the future Queen of Lunaruz.

Alastair is a flirt, even before entering society officially, but is often just complimenting someone, as is his nature.

Alastair is a master pianist, violinist, marksman, and swordsman. He shows off these skills when he can to help improve his chances at a match.

Naively, Alastair hopes for a love match in the ton, rather than a marriage of politics.

At age 17 (1815), Alastair “officially” entered proper society, with his eldest sister and mother excited for his marital prospects.

All events will occur during his second season, or later (age 18+).

Moominvalley Verse: Taylor is a mumrik troll, though her origins are a mystery. Like many mumriks before her, she is exceptionally small, half the size of mymbles, with very large intense eyes and a dark streak down her nose. She is also one type of mumrik who has a tail, much like a cat's, and her senses are slightly more enhanced than most other troll species, including having the ability to see very clearly in the dark.

For clothing, Taylor favors a dark maroon frock, with black leggings and thick brown boots. She loves braiding wildflowers into her hair to look pretty and smell nice, but much like Little My, she's not afraid to challenge anyone to fight if need be. Like many occupants in Moominvalley, Taylor hibernates in the winter, though she bounces between her friends' places every year so she's not sleeping in a cave somewhere. She has a great fascination for the ocean, and speaks of adventures she'll have someday. She's also learning how to play the gittern in her spare time.

[wolfvirago-m]

v; we’ve long believed that the hero would appear as a divine beast (zelda au)

It is an age of upheaval. Rival clans have begun to form within Hyrule, splitting the once united kingdom into separate territories, each ruled by fierce shogun-like fighters. The strange period had been formed thanks to the strange occurrence...

The Hero of Legend was not born. For the first time in ages, the Princess of Hyrule has little power, their rule puppeted by a demonic Shogun who bares resemblance to the old prophesized King of Evil.

Deep within a territory unclaimed by the ruling clans of Hyrule, a forest brimming with spirits protects a young girl named Robin. A strange mark appears upon her hand one day, followed by the sudden voice of the gods...

"Restore peace and unity to Hyrule... Bless it with your light, as the SUN must do."

In this timeline, Link was never born. Zelda is a princess in the court of Hyrule, with very little power. She remains but a priestess inside the court, searching for visions to try and unite the warring factions of the kingdom together again. All at the same time, strange demons and yokai have begun terrorizing the country.

Robin is the protagonist of this story. Her brother is taken away by demons, which leads to her chasing after him and slaying the demonic forces puppeted by that universe's Ganondorf, who resembles an old samurai warlord.

Fighting as both wolf and swordsman, Robin goes around Hyrule purifying nature and the hearts of those swallowed by the dark hatred the Demon Lord has spread.

This iteration of the story was inspired greatly by shows such as Shōgun (2024), games like Ōkami (2006) and movies like The Tale of the Princess Kaguya (2013) and Princess Mononoke (1997).

Vampire verse

Mainly inspired by old lore, Car/milla,2024 film Abigail

In present day, Alena spends most her time working as an art conservator at her gallery. She is most known for her skill in art restoration as she seems to have mastered many of the past methods. Often helping with private collections

Notable details: Crosses do NOT harm her, they were not always a symbol of Chris/tianity and it's a bit of a disregard to other religions. Vampires have heightened senses along with a sense of small but aren't weakened by garlic. The sun is deadly to them but they can heal from wounds caused by it. They don't have a reflection but after living so long many vampires know to be aware of their surroundings and avoid standing in front of them.

In her species, there are True vampires and Vampire spawn-a spawn is someone who survives a bite from a vampire and can be turned into a puppet by an old true vampire or back into a human if their sire is killed. A true vampire is one who is bitten and drinks the blood of a true vampire-Alena is a true vampire.

Heavensward

During the Heavensward expansion, Artemis spent her time training as a lancer and kept her head low to not catch the Crystal Braves' attention. She investigated several disappearances that nearly severely injured her and intensely scarred her right ear. [Frozen in the Darkest Moment + Be Afraid of the Dark]

Until the unfortunate day she is "killed" in the North Shroud near the end of the Dragonsong War. She comes to Carlisle and his party's aid, to help them fight an ambush by Voidsent, only to be mistaken for a Voidsent herself as she utilizes Eblis. Despite her attempts to explain herself, Carlisle corners and then pushes her off the cliff.

The story they told Mother Miounne and everyone else in the Carline Canopy is that she was killed by the Voidsent she rescued them from.

When he turns away, Selena utilizes her Corridors of Darkness to avoid her grisly end. There, she ends up in Witchdrop where she steals gear and job stone from a dragoon corpse, and is soon ambushed by Heartless. After casting Dark Thundaza for the first time on the ambush and herself, she once again uses a Corridor to Darkness to flee. [A Dangerous Thing and Shadows in Witchdrop]

Selena found herself recovering and wandering in Idyllshire for a time. The keybearer busied herself with the odd errand and escorting a young gobbie, Roundrox, while she hunted for treasure.

The folks there wouldn't know her name. The keybearer essentially became mute and always appeared exhausted with bags underneath her eyes, as if it had been too long since she had a good night's rest. She kept to herself and seemed disconnected.

They wouldn't be aware that she made an exception for a certain gobbie and occasionally spoke with her while they were on their treasure runs.

Eventually, Selena secretly left Idyllshire to make her way to Ishgard to fulfill the promise made to that dragoon corpse. The armor and job stone weren't the only things the keybearer had stolen; she had taken letters that never made it to their recipients and intended to deliver them in their stead.

But, the delivery isn't well received.

Feeling detached and intending to leave the Star, Selena returns to Gridania, to the Bramble Patch, to pick up Lisanna and Squackers and recover her bag buried there only to encounter Carlisle who had all but become consumed by his hate which transformed him into the Leshy Heartless.

Realizing how close they were to the city-state, she tried to use the Corridors of Darkness to teleport them to Witchdrop but they ended up at the Urth's Fount instead. Despite fighting tooth and nail, Selena is beaten severely, her right arm broken, and drowns in her own grief and despair before losing control of Sonnelion. [Fading Just Below]
