@loopylin @princesachronicle22 @mineralizedwritings I’m gonna go ahead and write a Corvina RP of her from when she left November up to seeing y’all’s group
Corvina
Corvina stood against the outer walls of the castle, the rain dripping down her pitch dark hair, onto her skin, mixing with her sudden tears.
Bah! Stupid tears…
A sob escaped her throat, echoing into the dead night. She bit her tongue, keeping anymore from escaping.
November…
The rain didn’t nothing to keep the heat she could still feel against her cheeks, reminding her of where she’d just been….
What she’d just witnessed.
The first of many.
“Oh, Corvina…sniveling like a child? It’s really not going to help things.”
Corvina scowled, staring at the ground.
“I mean…really. Is it that big of a deal?”
At this, Corvina’s fists clenched and her eyes shot wide. “Not a…big deal?” She breathed.
“HE COULD HAVE DIED!” She screamed into the air.
The figure appeared, her eyes staring at Corvina, raising a brow nonchalantly. She quirked her lips.
“Well….you’ve gone this long thinking he was dead. Would it matter?”
Corvina mouth hung at the words, breath shaking. She swallowed, unable to answer. She looked back at the ground, lips trembling now.
“In a way…actually…his death might be for the best.”
Corvina’s head snapped up. “W-hat?” She winced as her voice cracked.
“I mean…you were better before you knew he was still alive…weren’t you?”
Corvina blinked.
Better…?
If better was living in constant agony….then…yea. She was better.
But…then again…
Life hadn’t changed all that much.
The only difference now was that…
She had him…
But…
Had she only dragged him into it all with her?
From what she’d just witnessed…it sure looked that way.
“And even if it’s not better for you…maybe it would be better for him? Hm? Come on…you know you’re thinking it.”
Corvina folded her hands into fists, glaring daggers. “Just…leave him out of this.”
She smiled.
“You really do love him…don’t you?”
Corvina’s heart stopped.
Love…?
She…she wasn’t even sure she knew what that was anymore…But…if she did…love anyone….
It would be him…wouldn’t it?
It had always been him….
Corvina shuddered as the voice whispered, now standing right next to her, cold breath tickling her ear.
“You’re too close to him. They tried to tell you.”
Corvina’s eyes blazed. She whipped around, slapping the shadowy figure, making her face vanish and then swiftly reappear in a puff of smoke.
“You stay away from him!” Corvina cried.
She held her arms up, backing away defensively. “Why I’d never! Corvina…come now, you know me…. I’m your friend.” She extended a hand, eyes softening. “Who’s always been there for you? When you were young…broken? Who was there when…when they took him?”
Corvina stared at the outstretched hand, eyes misting as the rain slipped down her cheeks.
Only…it wasn’t rain.
Slowly, Corvina nodded, reaching out a hand, grasping the shadows.
She smiled.
“I’m always here my dear. For you.”
Corvina looked down at the ground. “Right…I’m….I’m sorry…”
“Don’t be.” The voice spoke, slowly receding back into the depths of Corvina’s mind.
Corvina let out a shuddering breath, hand still outstretched, grasping…
Nothing but air….
She slowly pulled it back, just as voices were heard above her. She looked up, and then down, realizing she was surrounded by broken glass.
She frowned, spotting her reflection in one of the many pieces.
She smashed it with her boot before quickly transforming, using her Raven form to fly high to the window above.
Peering in she could see the figures inside, speaking to one another, introducing themselves.
She watched with narrowed eyes, having nothing better to do. And then, still in Raven form, flew in, unbeknownst to the others.
Once hidden in the shadows, she shifted back, her black hair falling over her shoulder.
She…didn’t feel like returning to November at the moment…
Too many wild emotions running through…
So perhaps…with nothing better at the moment, she could watch these strangers for a while, and see how things played out.

Corvina!!! Just whoa! I love reading your RPs so much Godly, and the dark part of the mind thing is like ahhhhh but so cool at the same time… I don’t know how to handle these conflicting emotions…
But yes I’m excited for her to join the group!

And guess what? His is eternal (:January 7, 2023 at 8:48 pm #128300@loopylin thank u!!! Also yall can RP and have someone sense her maybe (just because she can hide it doesn’t make her immune to ppls senses, tho she is an expert at being silent and sneaking, she has a sort of “Presence” she brings, like a sudden cold chill/breeze and such)

#ProtectSebJanuary 7, 2023 at 8:57 pm #128305@princesachronicle22 ahhh thank u!!! Yes Corvina is a VERY conflicted/conflicting character. She is actually my antagonist! (She is an ANTAGONIST not a VILLAIN, large difference)
So…SPOILERS AHEAD SOME (but if u want to know a bit more about the shadow thing Corvina is speaking to then read ahead lol!)
So everyone has a breaking point, but my Whole story is pretty much about my MCs who are chosen/destined by God to help destroy the dark one, Eder, (I mean everyone has a Godgiven destiny/talent if they choose to use it but these 8 are very special)
Anyway because they’re very special they’re all connected to these stones/crystals. The crystals themselves hold no power (tho they think they do at the beginning)
Anyway, the crystals do however represent a very large trait each person has
Example, Jocelyn is Joy, Nyx’s is Loyalty, etc. and they always can show when a character is dead, by going completely colorless.
However, because these are special kids….
When these kids reach their “breaking point” they don’t just break
They shatter.
And the crystal also shows that.
And each one has a different way of manifesting being shattered (tho some share the same way)
Anyway, long story short, Corvina’s been living in darkness her whole life, and created an alternate self as a coping mechanism. a shadow self, if you will. But truthfully, this is also how her Shattering manifests itself, even though she isn’t shattered just yet, it’s already slowly taking place even as a child, and she chooses to make her shadow self her coping mechanism, almost like an invisible friend.
But we find that this is obviously unhealthy. And not only is it just her…
But as November begins to reach his breaking point, he too begins to see his shadow self, because that is also how his shattering manifests. The same as Corvina.
OKAY END OF SPOILERS AND IDK IF THAT MADE ANY SENSE BUT YEA HOPEFULLY I EXPLAIN IT BETTER IN THE SERIES 🤣

Sorry guys, I’ve been having so much fun writing Dante that I’ve completely neglected this group.
Carmen
“Hello!” Carmen said, jumping into the conversation as everyone introduced themselves. “My name is Carmen, and this is my brother Carter. Can I ask how you met Paxton?”
Also, @freedomwriter76
Eddie
She squinted for a moment at the man who had said her name. Then she suddenly realized with a gasp.
“You!” She ran up to the two men with a smile. “You’re one of the people from the ship! What’s your name?”
At the last question, the man looked a little… sad? Her smile faded and her tail drooped.
“I’m sorry. I don’t mean to… Did I miss something when I was out?” She said, still looking up at him.

January 7, 2023 at 9:28 pm #128314@princesachronicle22 there’s a couple scenes posted on a forum somewhere here. I’ll find it and tag u, but other then those I’m afraid not…I haven written much but really need to….
But y’all’s love for it really makes me feel great and I know I need to get to writing. I’m just a huge procrastinator lol! It’s the getting started for me really, like RPing is so easy because others are replying but writing myself is harder to start I guess

Same, lol. I can do role plays, but I’ve never actually written my stories from the beginning.
