Jun of the Celadine

Roleplay posts: 305 
Age: 33
Appearance: Jun stands at about 5’ 4”, with a willowy, slightly rectangular build. Her tawny olive skin has lost its flush from constantly wearing cloth armor, and she is dotted with small scars, including wrinkled patches of old burns on her left arm. She has deep brown, slightly hooded eyes and not quite straight dark auburn hair. Her face is still youthful and strong, though her gaze suggests she’s seen way too much for her age.
Equipment: An emerald, muddy long coat-style gambeson. A chrome blue longsword with a rusty hilt. Rusted shackles on her wrists ending in broken chains, giving a false impression that she had been a prisoner; the bracelets are easily removed.
Skills and Abilities: What remains of Jun’s power is a mix of animal friendship and elemental control. She can communicate with and control weaker animals, like insects, and request the help of larger, sentient animals (though they are not compelled to obey her). She can perform subtle manipulations of fire, water, earth, wind, and other “elements” like light and shadow. Her most unique ability is to imbue elemental magic into other life forms and channel her spells through them.
She is a decent cook and survivalist and has a solid academic understanding of agriculture and ecology. She is also a decent sword and hand-to-hand fighter.
Biography: Jun of the Celadine was a stereotypical hero of legend. She was one of Isra's mightiest spellcasters, had gone on dozens of adventures, possessed several powerful artifacts, and helped bring peace to the world on many occasions.
A notorious overachiever and workaholic, Jun had driven herself to near madness pursuing powerful magic. In standard fashion, it was the power of friendship that kept her sane.
Now Jun must cope with the fact that much of the world she helped protect has been lost, and that most of the magic power she had accrued over the years has stopped working.
Her family (whose whereabouts are unknown) was a clan of farmers and gardeners. Her tribe lived in peace and harmony in a mostly forested region. Every two hundred years or so, their people produced a powerful mage and master of all elements. Jun was not this chosen one, but rather her grandmother was. Still, Jun's (somewhat unhealthy) obsession with keeping up with her ancestor made her a pretty close second.
Jun has no regrets about her journey, though she sometimes wishes she had spent more learning other skills, like cooking and dancing. She also feels she made a poor lover, though it's likely her old partners passed away in the floodwaters anyways...

Jun recognized a "no longer screwing around" stance when she saw it.
She lowered her sword and let it hang to her side. She breathed deeply. She brought her right leg back in the direction of the sword. This guard looked strange because it more or less left her entire body wide open from the front.
Her stance was designed to counter-attack powerfully against thrusts from other sword users. But she had no idea if it would work against a spear user. It was a secondary stance, a transitional one, not one of the ones beginners were taught to open with. It even had a special name, the Iron Gate.
From there, she waited to see who would twitch first.

The tension grew as none seemed to want to make the first move but eventually Asa made the first move.
The spear didn't came in a straight line but from left to right as the Asa's back leg pushed the man forward, his target was Jun's shoulder.

Jun's back leg shifted forward at high speed and Jun parried the attack with a rapid swing. With her leg forward, she now had leverage to move in with a high counter-slash to the face.
Gotcha!
The brown blur of Jun's sheath sped towards Asadrack's face...
And it missed Asadrack's chin by a centimeter. The spear's reach was too far. SHI-
Her entire side was wide open now, as was her lower arms and arm pit. Her left leg was vulnerable as well, if Asadrack was fast enough.

As the sword almost hit Asa his head slightly moved backwards, his elbow quickly moved up and the weight of his arm made the spear go down fast hitting the woman in the leg, if the blade was still attached, it would open a nasty wound but it wasn't.
Asadrack straighten up his back, "That was a close one, you're really good at this," he said

Jun took a step back and bowed to Asadrack.
"I'm glad you think I'm good, but you're so good you actually convinced me I should really learn how to use a spear." She smiled.
She was certain Asadrack could protect Tana in the future when the time came.
"I never really thought about it, but the truth is I always used the longsword as a sort of sidearm whenever magic was a split second too slow, or when there was some sort of anti-magical field in place. It would be nice to have something a little more practical to rely on. At least until I'm done doubling down on my stupid." She winked.
"But I mean, that said, I can still teach you if you want. A sidearm is still useful if your spear breaks or you're forced to throw it."

Asadrack bowed back, "I had the advantage of the reach, if I had a sword it would definitely be different," he said.
The man walked back to where the blade of his spear was and, with some effort, he reattached it and than made sure it wouldn't fell in a real fight.
"I've never fought many mages to be honest, they were a rare breed back where I used to live." Asa sat down, "I would love to teach you what I know about spears and would definitely want to learn how to properly use a sword."
Asa took a deep breath "Thank you Jun, I would probably just be feeling sad if you hadn't found me, I hope we can be friends, you seem like a good person."

Jun shook her head at being told she's a good person. "I'm ok."
The way Asadrack asked her to be friends reminded her of a little brother she never had. She extended her hand out to shake his. "You got it. Friends."
She took a step back and held up her sword again. She stood sideways to Asadrack so that he could see better.
"Ox, plow, fool, roof, tail." She cycled through the different stances. "They're fluid, and you want to be able to transition between them smoothly. Those are the positions where you're strongest and can attack and block best."
Jun went on to explain some details about the footing and the angles of the stances. She also awkwardly inserted the phrase "I'm not an expert" several times during her expert explanations.
(To be fair, much of her knowledge of the longsword was the theory she had learned as an Isran Sun Marshall, and practice duels she had with her ex-boyfriend. Although she did have some field experience with the weapon, most of her serious fights involved explosions and light constructs.)

Asa shook Jun's hand and watched closely as she showed him the stances, although he could mimick the stances he wasn't fluid, it would take time and training but he seemed like he would learn quickly.
The more Jun said she wasn't an expert the more his expression became one of doubt "Not an expert you say. To me, you look as much an expert with a sword as birds are at flying."
Asa than explained the basics on spear, his main point was how important was to keep the distance between her and her target "you want for your target to be just out of your reach, using your body to cover the rest of the distance." he than showed her how to properly aim a throw using her non dominant hand finishing with "Unless you have sure you'll hit, if you can retrieve it quickly, if you have other weapons or you absolutely need to, don't throw it, you don't want to be unarmed in a battle."

Jun chuckled. "Sure I can fly, but then surely you've never seen a falcon fell a pigeon in midair." She then raised an eyebrow at herself, wondering if that was a good analogy.
She was impressed by Asadrack's performance. He was a natural and would improve greatly with time.
She hated to admit it, but Jun was... not very good at throwing things. But she was more determined to learn now than ever before, so she watched Asadrack very carefully.
"You're a pretty good bird yourself." Jun cringed at herself. She was certain that didn't make any sense.
She'd ask to take the spear and practice throwing it a few times. Her first throws were terrible, but she'd start to show improvement after the first... dozen tries.
"You want to know something funny about myself? My mother wanted a boy. She was the athlete in the family. Kinda weird huh? My father was actually quite a strong mage, although my grandmother... she was incredible. Invincible even. You couldn't believe the things she could do." She threw the spear again and it more or less went where she wanted it to go.

Asa nodded to her analogy and said "thank you" after being complimented.
As the woman tried throwing his spear he would tell and show her how to make the spear hit the mark "You're doing a good job, you can borrow my spear everytime you wish to train with it, if i'm not using it myself, of course."
His mind went back to Tana as she spoke of her mother wanting a boy, thinking "As long as the child is healthy I don't care about the gender."
Asa than spoke "Must be tough having your abilities stripped out of you like that, hopefully I can help you with learning a new one, you're doing a great job so far, as for me, I never met my parents but I had a lot to live up to when the leader of one of the best military groups around, sometimes I wish he hadn't found me, although kind and overall a good person, if I hadn't met him I would probably not have blood on my hands."

"You're gonna be a good father Asadrack, I promise."
She accepted Asadrack's advice and once again showed marked improvement. "Hehe."
Jun felt a pang of guilt when Asadrack brought up his past again. "In some ways, I think you're a better person than me. I've spent my whole life trying to be hero, to keep up with my grandmother's legend. And I've always tried to keep others safe. But the flip side of that coin is that, if it comes down to it, I don't mind having blood on my hands. I don't think you would have liked me when I was younger. I was an ornery youth."
Jun handed Asadrack the spear again and reached down and pulled out her bolas. "My magic's not completely gone. It's just weaker now. But I disagree with Duen. I just to learn to use what I have now to my advantage."
She spun the bolas around as before. They glowed slightly and made behind a green trail of circular energy.
She let them go and they sped out at the speed of a cannonball... straight down. A plum of sand shot straight up. Jun took a deep, deep nasal breath that looked like the prelude of a scream.
"Do you know how to throw those?" She squeaked, extremely red-faced.

Asa nodded "Thank you Jun, I appreciate your words, well, i don't think i'm a good person at all but thanks. Well i'm glad i met you now than."
Asa heard her talk about her magic "I agree, i think you can have both." As the bolas hit the sand Asa began laughing, "unfortunately I can only use spears and soon a sword."

She has deep brown, slightly hooded eyes and not quite straight dark auburn hair. Her face is still youthful and strong, though her gaze suggests she’s seen way too much for her age.
Equipment: An emerald, muddy long coat-style gambeson. A chrome blue longsword with a rusty hilt. Rusted shackles on her wrists ending in broken chains, giving a false impression that she had been a prisoner; the bracelets are easily removed.
Skills and Abilities: What remains of Jun’s power is a mix of animal friendship and elemental control. She can communicate with and control weaker animals, like insects, and request the help of larger, sentient animals (though they are not compelled to obey her). She can perform subtle manipulations of fire, water, earth, wind, and other “elements” like light and shadow. Her most unique ability is to imbue elemental magic into other life forms and channel her spells through them.
She is a decent cook and survivalist and has a solid academic understanding of agriculture and ecology. She is also a decent sword and hand-to-hand fighter.
Biography: Jun of the Celadine was a stereotypical hero of legend. She was one of Isra's mightiest spellcasters, had gone on dozens of adventures, possessed several powerful artifacts, and helped bring peace to the world on many occasions.
A notorious overachiever and workaholic, Jun had driven herself to near madness pursuing powerful magic. In standard fashion, it was the power of friendship that kept her sane.
Now Jun must cope with the fact that much of the world she helped protect has been lost, and that most of the magic power she had accrued over the years has stopped working.
Her family (whose whereabouts are unknown) was a clan of farmers and gardeners. Her tribe lived in peace and harmony in a mostly forested region. Every two hundred years or so, their people produced a powerful mage and master of all elements. Jun was not this chosen one, but rather her grandmother was. Still, Jun's (somewhat unhealthy) obsession with keeping up with her ancestor made her a pretty close second.
Jun has no regrets about her journey, though she sometimes wishes she had spent more learning other skills, like cooking and dancing. She also feels she made a poor lover, though it's likely her old partners passed away in the floodwaters anyways...

Jun shook her head as she dug through the sand to find her bolas. "I'll figure it out on my own." His laughter made her laugh a little in return.
Jun picked up the spear again and had Asadrack wield her sword.
She had to admit, there was something primally comforting about wielding man's oldest and most reliable weapon, the long pointy stick. "You ready for a rematch?"

Looking at his own spear pointing at him was a weird feeling for Asadrack, although a little awkward, he had good stance for someone who never fought with a sword before.
Since experience wasn't on his side the man decided to use his agility on his favour, he first rushed forward but changed directions quicly trying to have the tip of the spear not pointed directly at him even if it happened for a second, than, he rushed Jun again trying to get connect the tip of the sword on her body.

Jun was still awkward with her grip. The fact that Asadrack was a bigger body with still impressive agility threw her off. It was also an unusual way to use a sword.
But it worked, and he caught her right on the shoulder. "Ack!"
She quickly realized Asadrack was trying to use the longsword like a spear. But there was no way he'd be used to the shorter reach. So for the next round she ducked down and aimed up at his sword arms when he tried to attack like that again.
