seventh shot ☢ TEXT (unseelie locked)

[mixcds]

Hi there, Kieren here. A couple of things! Say theoretically you can't age due to any kind of circumstance, would you consider yourself a year older on your birthday?

I was asked to a census by majordomo Higgin of Caer Scima. Some of you were really forth-coming (thank you) and some of you were sort of really evasive and suspicious, but that's understandable given most Unseelie are supposed to be opportunists. Attached is the Census - some of you I didn't get a chance to ask personally, so I had to do some digging. For the record, you bribe imps into anything if the right amount of mulled mead is involved. Naturally some of the information might be a bit inaccurate, so I'll edit and remove where necessary. I mean, I'm not sure how much I trust imps, but they were really excited about the mead.

This might be a bit more candid than Higgin anticipated, but there's always edits and polishing. Later.

» KIEREN WALKER | CAER SCIMA & THE STATION undead, limited immortality, no combat skills » HICCUP HORRENDOUS HADDOCK (THIRD) | VARIOUS some combat skills, dragon trainer/whisperer » JACK FROST | STATION & VARIOUS ability to create and manipulate snow and ice, undead, possible limited immortality? some combat skills » THOMAS | CAER SCIMA telepathy (nb: limited ability), some combat skills, other skills unspecified » TERESA | CAER SCIMA (FORMER SEELIE) telepathy (nb: limited ability), some combat skills? some scientific skill » MINHO | CAER SCIMA combat skills, strategist? » MERIDA (PRINCESS) | VARIOUS combat skills, proficient archer, scottish so probably good at fighting » CASSIE BLAKE | CAER SCIMA magic, combat skills » ZUKO (PRINCE) | CAER SCIMA fire bender (??), combat skills » PETER HALE | CAER SCIMA alpha werewolf, direwolf shift, advanced healing, enhanced speed, super strength » MALIA TATE | STATION AND VARIOUS were-coyote, advanced healing, enhanced speed, super strength, coyote shift » NERDANEL | CAER SCIMA sculptor » DAMON SALVITORE | CAER SCIMA vampire, limited immortality (starting to wonder if any of us are really immortal if it's limited) » ERIK LEHNSHERR | VARIOUS abilities unavailable for public knowledge, displays uncanny ability to sound exactly like boyfriend though » MORGANA PENDRAGON | VARIOUS my default guess is magic, unverified though » GERALT | VARIOUS some sort of alchemist » ARIADNE | CAER SCIMA can travel through shadows, has some sort of concealment ability » HARRY POTTER | VARIOUS magic, some combat ability » SABER ALTER | MAUPERTIUS heroic spirit? » RIN TOSHIKA | UNVERIFIED magic ability » KYOYA HIBARI | UNVERIFIED exceptional combat skill » JUNPEI IORI | CAER SCIMA a persona? » YUKARI TAKEBA | CAER SCIMA what is a persona? » EFFY STONEM | CAER SCIMA no abilities, but apparently has drugs so there's that » THE OUTSIDER | THE STATION abilities go here » ALICE LIDDELL | UNVERIFIED exceptional combat skills according to imps » EREN JAEGER | UNVERIFIED turns into some sort of giant, I think this is mostly imp gossip » GRELL SUTCLIFFE | UNVERIFIED death god (personally unsure how to feel) » FAOLAN | UNVERIFIED some combat skills, imps tell me he sings? » CONNOR | UNVERIFIED thought I was a vampire, going to assume he has combat experience fighting vampires » SARALEGUI | REDGATE nothing of note » THE BRUCOLAC | UNVERIFIED vampire » WAVER VELVET | NIMH GLEANNE instructs, apparently grumpy » MICHAEL ROA VALDAMJONG | QUENDI I think he's undead (due to extended stay in Quedi) » KATSA | UNVERIFIED combat skills of some sort

There are apparently a few undead folks kicking around. We should start a support group.

Anyway, I know for a fact I missed a few people, so if you'd like to help out, feel free to drop me your current location and any outstanding powers you have. I'll be updating this every six months, provided I'm still here? If you're location is UNVERIFIED and you feel like verifying it, please do so.

Regarding the birthday part: whatever you care to choose. Regarding the rest: why should I provide you with this information?

[ like yeah she's provided it to people without caring but now that someone's asking for it, shijima might just lean towards cat-contrary. ]

How is Jack Frost's immortality limited?

In my home city, a measure of age differs according to location and station; these, too, seem to vary from those presented by other shard-bearers. It's not difficult to extrapolate that all age is relative.

If the Drabwurld has an agreed-upon system, so be it, but I've yet to encounter any one universal. Call yourself a year older in mind, if you'd like, or in body as well. I doubt it will make much difference to any save yourself.

Would you terribly mind answering a few questions regarding your census? I'm afraid that differences in terminology may limit its personal usefulness at present.

I've been known to rough house with a few lily livered boys back home.

[Even though they probably let her win because she was the princess.]

I don't see how being Scottish factors into being able to fight though.

If there's a way to kill you, you've got immortality limited. You'll die, but you just might live for a long time before it.

[ alternatively you just live enough time that people might as well consider you immortal but that's not really something he's good at judging. at all. ]

And a year passed, technically speaking you are a year older.

a list of names, some of which are entirely impossible to pronounce and a list of powers, some of them sound as if they came out of a comic book, would help in - what manner?

aside for the fact that now each unseelie can see the number of people who can eventually turn against them and all of the ways in which they can kill them.

Boyfriend.

[ not caring about the gay thing, more the comparison, really. ]

Thorough. :)
You can put me and Minho both down for speed and agility skills, too. We used to be Runners back home.
You actually got Minho to tell you something? Did you get him to start bragging?

And--if you know your birthday, you should celebrate it.
Happy birthday, Kieren.

[arms]

jeez you were ridiculously busy with your whole questionnaire thing.
but this's really useful, i think. even if people are acting like it's some backstabbing scheme, it's whatever.
if you really think about it, it's like. if you want to go on a quest or exploring, hey, look! here's a list of people who have skill sets that are compatible with yours!
everybody just needs to calm down and quit thinkin about betraying one another.

[cagedinflesh]

Is it your birthday, or thereabouts? Happy birthday to you, Mr. Walker. Personally, I would count each year. It is not the state of one's body which dictates age, truly that is more in the mind, should there be any discrepancy between the two.

Forgive me, I believe I arrived after you started this. But why are you doing this?

I can't imagine that people are so open about their gifts, here.

Though perhaps I am just unused to such openness.
