"Can we play a little bit more before we go?

- Nah... I think we should keep this to ourselves...

I walked faster. He did it as well.

- I guess you're right. How about later, on our way?

- Journey is long enough. I assure you. We'll have plenty of time for that on the way."

Have to do it.

Part of their dynamic in the Dragon's Dogma AU

Lina doesn't know that because this happened in a bathouse so she was paying/receiving their towels. But the one who saw this was Snake.

Snake just makes fun of Hal's reaction:

"Awwwn, did someone break your heart? -Snake muttered- Not all humans are fond of pawns. Some consider us bad omens... to say the least..."

Question time: do any npcs flirt with your pawn? If so, how does your pawn react? How does your arisen react?

∞ Arisen & Pawn Character Introductions

Template by @arisenreborn

♛ THE ARISEN:

NAME: Lina AGE: 25 RACE: Human PRONOUNS: She/her PREFERRED VOCATION: Archery (Warfarer: switching in between Archer and Magic Archer) FAVORED GIFTS: Flowers. FAMILY: Only her Mom, Beatrice. Only child.

POSITIVE TRAITS: Extrovert, active, playful, witty. NEGATIVE TRAITS: Loneliness, stress and depression. Constant feeling of danger. LIKES: Flowers, cats and blue colored things. DISLIKES: dishonest/corrupt people and brown colored things.

1. What was their life like before becoming Arisen?

Lina lived a moderately peaceful life in Cassardis, in a small house that was part of the old structure of the town (the fanfiction takes place about 200 years after DD1). She was an ordinary citizen of low social status in Gransys, working as a cook in the oldest inn. There she was in charge of hunting and preparing meals. The current owner of the inn is a man named William.

2. How do they handle being Arisen, and the responsibilities that come with it?

Lina was quite mature in accepting her role as Arisen. She seems to be aware and serene about her fate, but inwardly she is always wondering why this situation is happening to her, and she mostly perceives it as a divine punishment.

3. What are their thoughts on Pawns in general?

Lina's history with people is rather distant: Her mother is cold, and her mother partner treated her quite badly and abused her (touching her inappropriately). Partly as a result of this, she feels that pawns are more affectionate towards her, which creates an almost automatic empathy for them. She perceives them as sentient beings, ordinary people, forgetting all the time that they are just pawns.

4. What's their relationship like with their main Pawn?

Lina is constantly struggling with her desires and feelings for Hal. She is a person so thirsty for affection, and Hal's gentle, attentive personality attracts her like a magnet (and vice versa). She does not know how to deal with him; she respects him and tries to maintain a normal friendship, but deep down she sees him as "the man who came straight out of her dreams" to be with her and care for her as a partner.

5. Do they have any interest in being Sovran? What are their opinions on the politics of the world in general?

Lina's lore is based in DD1, so the main goal is taking down Grigori and take her heart back, but she doesn't know what is waiting for her after that...

6. Who are their love interest(s) and/or closest friends?

Only her pawns: Hal, Snake and Meryl. But she will know a lot of people on her adventures...

7. What drew them to their preferred vocation? Do they have history with it?

Initially, Lina was a Strider, but as a non-athlete, she lacked the agility to excel in that vocation. It was then that Snake, a long-time experienced pawn, recommended her switch to archery, as she had an innate talent for it. Later in life, Hal suggested that she should learn to use magic, so she became a Magic Archer.

8. Do they have any hobbies? Any way of relaxing between all that monster-slaying and traveling?

Her hobby is writing and collecting pressed flowers.

♟︎ THE PAWN:

NAME: Hal AGE: Recently Summoned. He seems to be 30. RACE: Human. PRONOUNS: He/His. PREFERRED VOCATION: Mage. FAVORED GIFTS: Books and Spell books. INCLINATION: Calm.

POSITIVE TRAITS: Intelligent, creative, curious. He likes to invent things. NEGATIVE TRAITS: Shy, withdrawn, easily feels uncomfortable. Overthinks. LIKES: The stars, and humans. Has a weird fascination for human behavior. DISLIKES: injustice.

1. What was their life like prior to being summoned by their Arisen?

Nothing. Hal has been summoned by Lina for the first time.

2. What is their opinion on the Arisen? How do they view their relationship?

Hal is deeply committed to Lina. At first, this was just a reflection of his nature as a pawn, but after spending night after night dealing with different Arisen through the Rift, he begins to notice that she acts differently than other humans; benevolently and with justice. This ignites a small spark in Hal, leading him to question his true "feelings" toward his Arisen, even if he doesn't understand what he's sensing at first.

3. Is there anything about the Arisen they find troublesome? Be it a small quirk or bad habit? (Or are they obviously flawless?)

Sometimes Hal feels uncomfortable with Lina's boldness. It is a strange emotion for him. In a way he dislikes it, but at the same time he feels it is part of her charm.

4. What is their specialization and is there any story behind how they cultivated that skill set?

Hal is a Mage, and he loves to create fast, intelligent ways to keep his party safe.

5. Do they have any thoughts on the politics of the world and their place in it as a Pawn - or how Pawns are treated?

YES, pretty much! and that's because of Lina. Because she is a revolutionary. Lina believes that she was chosen to be punished because of her desire to have a fair and kind life for everyone. But Hal thinks that the dragon chose her because she is capable of bringing a revolution and a great change for all living beings.

6. Does their journey with the Arisen change them in any significant way and how?

Yes. Hal is aware of the importance of education, patience, and benevolence, as they are the next steps in touching the hearts and changing the minds of others. To lead by example in order to create a better world for all.

7. Is there a reason they chose their preferred vocation?

Hal has enough talent to be a sorcerer, but he is so concerned for the welfare of his Arisen that he remains a mage so that he can always use his spells to heal and assist Lina whenever needed.

8. Do they have any hobbies or preferred past-times?

He likes to read, create artifacts and gimmicks to help the arisen in her journey.

"Sometimes, I miss the rain, falling on the roof of our small home, cuddling with you by my side, playing silly hand games under the bed sheets"

"Let me kiss, caress and worship each scar you have and take that pain away from you.

Because you deserve it.

Because, without you...

I would not be here...

Without you

I'm nothing..."

The two lines to be stretched just a little longer until it touches the phone edges, you know? You don’t have to change the colour or anything, just stretch the two lines more till it looks longer, please? 🥺
