Largest among the Goraian invasion leftovers, this mess tent was originally designed to feed a legion. Much of its length is taken up by long tables and benches for the legionnaires. Importantly, however, it also includes an addon cooking tent, which is geared mostly for producing huge quantities of gruel, porridge, stew, or even soup. Unfortunately, there’s definitely not enough food in here to feed a legion. Someone found a few crates of hardtack that are still more-or-less edible, but most of the new colony’s food will need to come from somewhere.

Thuratiphel
Committed
Roleplay posts: 96
Age: Ageless (Appears late 30)
Appearance: Appearance: For the most part, he never takes his armor off. About 7 foot tall, he has a skull helmet, and pitch black armor. The armor has large curved pauldrons, and raised skeletal markings. He is usually wreathed in flames, coming from the the joints of his armor.
If you were to remove the helmet, you would see the face of a fairly regular man in his 30's. A square jaw, with short brown hair. However, if you look into his eyes, you would notice that both the iris and pupil are near black.
Equipment: Equipment: His armor. A small piece of paper attached to his armor by a wax seal, detailing his sentence and what must be done to complete it. When it is completed it will burn up and Thuratiphel's appearance will change to a more angelic form.
Skills and Abilities: Skills & Abilties: Slight premonition. Control of the flames on his body, allowing him to choose whether they harm someone or not. Limited Levitation (think like a double jump). Abnormally strong for someone his size. Skilled with his sword.
Biography: Bio: A taciturn man, Thuratiphel is a Xuel-nelga, a angelic species of extremely powerful beings. He was ordered on a mission of penance fore a crime, and was given his current more demonic form. In his travels to complete his penance, he began to travel to the mistborne isles, the mist stripping all but a few of his once immense power.

Thuratiphel perused the mess tent, looking around at the scant supplies in the tent.
"Looks rather barren." he stated, saddened by the meager offerings.

Sylvanie Autumndaughter
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 145
Age: 43, though she looks closer to her mid twenties, going by human standards
Appearance: She has auburn hair, like that of fall leaves, that falls down to about her waist, as well as a golden-yellow pair of eyes and pale skin. Her clothing is very nature inspired, appearing to be made of sewn leaves and tree bark, as well as vines for straps and a belt. She usually goes around barefooted(though she has a vine tied around her left ankle) and comes no taller than 5'4" She has a thin frame and clear skin, except for a very slight scar on the top of her right hand, and she bares a pair of translucent wings similar to those of an insect, like a butterfly, though they appear too small to lift her.
Equipment: As she arrived on the Isle she had no equipment to write about, other than the clothes on her back and what appeared to be a dagger made out of wood.
Skills and Abilities: Before arriving here, she could commune with nature and help plants to grow, as well as speak with animals, fly, and cast a variety of nature and illusion based spells. Since arriving, most of her magic has waned significantly. If her spells work at all they take much longer to take hold, her understanding of animals has become much more broken, her flight has left her entirely, and the trees here seem to fall quiet or silent to her ears. Annoyingly, she still seems to hold the allergy to iron and steel that her mother's blood gives her.
Biography: Born of a human father and a fairy mother, Sylvanie was known in her world as a Faeschild. Raised by her mother in the world of magic the fairies inhabited, she learned many things about nature and magic, such as the fairy's ability to commune with it, the animals' nature as a part of it, and humanity's great fear of it. She was always quite naïve and fiery, her heart thirsting for adventure. However, she didn't get the chance before...it happened. She isn't entirely sure what it was, or what happened, but the next thing she new, she was coughing up seawater on the shore of a strange island. Who knows where it'll take her next?

As the sun begins to dip behind the mountains, Naoki stands in the Mess Tent, arms folded, supervising tonight’s dinner preparations. There are the normal diners elsewhere in the tent, going about their business, but Naoki watches as they arrange dishes on the designated table. It’s not much different from the evening meal they prepare on any given night, but Selene mentioned she’d like a hot meal, so they’ve got that. Hot meats, mostly, of goodness only knows what variety.
Now all that’s left is for Selene to bring her crew. Glancing toward the entrance, Naoki suspects they’ll be here soon.

Selene
Established
Roleplay posts: 28
Age: Appears to be in her mid to late 20s
Appearance: Selene has striking, snow white hair, with a very pale complexion. She is a buxom beauty, often fashionably dressed in shades of blue or white. She has heterochromia iridium, with one eye being a brownish red, and the other eye being a striking deep blue.
Equipment: Selene has a wide assortment of magical trinkets that she has collected. Other than those, her primary equipment would be her tarot deck.
Biography: Selene was once the highly respected owner of the Temptation Hotel and Club, and was once the enigmatic, fearsome Pale Lady of the Isran criminal underworld, able to sit with the Empress at her leisure. Now, she is the Captain of a small crew aboard a ship.

Selene approached the tent, keeping an eye to make sure everyone was present. Yes, it seemed everyone was. In total, they were a group of a rather decent size, but given how spaced out everyone seemed from one another, it would be easy to assume they were a bundle of smaller groups headed to a common destination, rather than one tribe. She swiftly made her way towards Naoki, her face as blank as a sheet of ice. Lucifer and Claire trailed right behind her, the rest of her crew a healthy distance from their ringleader.
"Hello, Naoki. My, this smells quite hearty," she complimented without a hesitation, as well as a gentle curtsy. It was nothing compared to the splendid feasts of old, but in the current state of affairs, Selene supposed she could do without being fussy. "This is my first lieutenant, Lucifer St. Cross," she introduced the tall man that stood to her right. "As well as, perhaps, my oldest friend."
"Little me? I'm flattered, Selene." He said with a low laugh, offering a hand to Naoki. "Empress," he greeted casually. The gangly ginger to Selene's left seemed awe-struck at the sight of Naoki, clearly shaking with excitement, or perhaps nerves?
"This is Claire Diamond, my newly appointed second lieutenant. She's a promising alchemist, perhaps she'd do well in whatever form of the Enclave you recreate here." The woman to suddenly become animate, dropping into a deep bow.
"Your imperialness! Err, your grace! No! Your majesty!" She fumbled, stuttering over her words as crimson filled her cheeks. "I am Claire Diamond!" Lucifer chuckled at the other woman's antics. Claire pushed her glasses back up her nose, as she remained in the deep bow.

Naoki looks on as Selene approaches with her group, listens, and nods to each of Selene’s associates as she introduces them. And people say she keeps eclectic company.
“Hello, hello. It’s good to meet you both. Business adjacent friends, I take it.” A guess based on her knowledge of Seleen’s prior occupation and their stage names. The fact that Selene is maintaining some sort of command structure despite suggesting she would have the ship dismantled and move in here is an interesting detail Naoki notes. Perhaps it’s merely a designation of favor over the last second lieutenant but it’s a touch strange, and will definitely be on the list of questions.
“You’re hungry, I bet.” Naoki gestures to the tables, laden with food. “Come, eat. I’ve had these tables here and everything on them set aside for your group. It’s not great, but it’s what we have.”

"I was not lying when I said it smells hearty. We are very grateful for this meal, Naoki." Selene smiled, and gave another curtsy. She gestured to her crew to sit at the table. Claire seemed surprised and stumbled herself upright, her face bright red as she moved to sit next to a woman with a purple bob. Before long, the two seemed enraptured in a conversation. Lucifer smiled at Naoki, his sharp teeth showing his status as a vampire. He stared at the older members of their group, gesturing sharply at the table, as he took a seat on the other side of Claire.
Selene flitted about the younger ones, murmuring a few words in the ears before they eagerly began filling their plates with food. Once it seemed that the youth was taken care of, she took a spot near the head of the table, on the other side of Lucifer, before waving Naoki over. "Come, dine with us. I'm sure you have questions for my lieutenants and myself." She offered with a gracious smile. Selene folded her hands over her lap. Her blue eyes darted across the table, making sure the children seemed happy and were eating, before she began to serve herself.

Naoki hovers about as Selene and her party seat themselves and eventually seats herself, as though she intended to.
At the suggestion of questions, Naoki… shrugs. “Not as many as you might think, not as many as I thought. I thought about it a bit.”
“Eat first, but there are only two things,” Naoki begins, holding up two fingers. “First, I’d like to know a bit about what you’ve been up to lately — regarding how you all came to be on that ship, whose children these are, what all you know about what Venus has been up to, that sort of thing. Your story up to this point inasmuch to satisfy my curiosity and tell me anything I should know about what care or supplies you’ll need going forward as a group. … And then beyond that, Selene, I would ask a few questions about your past, what you know of me, where you lived, and that. We’ve had a bit of trouble with different versions of the same people, so I’d like to see f you’re exactly the Selene I knew, one that’s similar, not quite so similar, or..." Trailing off, Naoki gestures vaugley.
"After that, the questions should mostly become simpler, I think.” And Naoki nods to herself.

Selene dips her head politely, taking a small bite. She chews thoughtfully, before raising a hand over her mouth as she clears her throat a little. "Lucky for you, most of those questions are intertwined. Lady Venus was traversing the waters when she came across my ship. My ship was not well suited for the flood, and Venus had far more in terms of supplies. Lucifer and Claire, like you had guessed earlier, worked for me prior to the catastrophe, as did Mercedes," she points to the woman with the purple bob. "And most of the other adults. Some, like Thomas over there," she points to a rather handsome man with chin-length blonde hair. "They did not."
"As for what Lady Venus has been up to, I think that might best be discussed in private." She glances at the children, and a sad smile crosses her lips, before it abruptly evaporates into a blank expression. "Different versions of people, eh? Well.. Like I said, best discussed in private. Perhaps some other time, mmh?" She replies casually with a rather pointed look. "After I see to it that everyone is at ease, we can discuss things personally. Lucifer is more than adept at placating the young and commanding the others."

Naoki nods along, not quite satisfied with the answers, but accepting of the excuse. “I suppose, I suppose… I mean only to do away with what business we can beforehand.”
Naoki is quiet for the next few moments, allowing the lot of them some time to eat as Naoki looks between them, considering.
“And — this may be another to be brushed off, but what of these children? Only a few others made it here, mostly by chance of who was near the docks at the time, only a handful were scooped up. These that you’ve brought, were they on your ship...?” Selene’s glance wasn’t unnoticed, and Naoki knows a bit of Venus. She has an idea, and mayhap she’ll get the full picture later, but she aims to get the measure of it here.

Selene pauses after taking another bite, almost done with her plate. "Three hail from my ship. There were two others we found, but one.." She trailed off, a flash of something crossing her eyes. "The others were on Lady Venus' ship." Selene explained, taking another bite of the food.
"If you'd like, Obscura and Lucifer," she pointed to a vampire that was calmly assisting some of the younger children with eating and not making a huge mess. "Were the ones who were primarily in charge of the youth. They could explain the circumstances far better than I," she said meaningfully, almost willing Naoki to understand the too-subtle threads she was unable to spell out.

Naoki listens and nods, having expected the question to be handled as such. “Fair enough,” she supposes.
“Perhaps there was a simple answer, like ‘Ah, yes, we found them on a raft and brought them aboard’.” Naoki shrugs. She’ll not be reading into whatever manner of mystery that might be right now, she was just curious.
“Last question, then,” she continues, gesturing with one finger to single out Lucifer. “How did you get that name?

Selene quietly dabs at her mouth with a handkerchief, having finished her meal. She was rather curious as to why Naoki would ask such a question, but perhaps they had had a Lucifer St. Cross here some time prior. Her face went cold and impassive as she stared at the tight band of mana wound up within Lucifer's core, seeing it flare out just the tiniest bit. Intriguing.
Lucifer laughed at Naoki, the question clearly humorous to him. "I do believe I got my name from my mother, my father was never too creative. I could ask you the same, Empress. Or is it former Empress?" He sneered out.
