Asura Appreciation Week - Day Three
Does your OC have a krewe? What do they specialize in? How do they get along? @asura-appreciation-corner
This'll get another cut because, uh ... a bit long, again my friends!
Rerki has a krewe, although not in the traditinal sense. It's a funkly little party of ufortunate souls and misfits she met and adopted over the years as Commander and the year after Zaithan's defeat.
They're a special group among the Vigil and get called when things get serious and needs professional handling. Rerki & her Rescue Squad will see that it gets done.
The "krewe" includes Rerki (of course) as the leader with Thjorn Herstekin (a former Son of Svanir Norn), Vigrum the Unfaithful (a Charr gladia) and Maggeline "Maggie" Blackwater (a thief from Divinity's Reach) as her Inner Circle.
Then, theres the two other Asura: Zhekk, a self-proclaimed pyrologist and fire enthusiast prone to talking loud and much while he stands at the backline and throws fireballs (and bombs) from a safe distance at everyone that dare's to cross their path or question his genius.
The second Asura is Makko, a sellsword who originally worked as a Peacemaker in Rata Sum until he got fired after accepting a bribe from a rather insistent and hot-headed inmate and letting him slip away. He was hired by the Lion Guard after but didn't make it long there either until setting out to find adventures and fortune for himself in the big, wide world of Tyria.
He was quite suprised when he later joined Rerki and saw the very reason for his early retirement from the Peacemakers among her krewe. In the months afterwards, Zhekk found himself looking over his shoulder twice before going anywhere, fearing a vengeful blade (or at least a well placed punch) finding it's way to his unguarded back - or worse, face.
Aimilien & Eimilien are two Sylvari pod-twins and were part of a wandering circus for a very, very long time; honing skills of trickery and illusion and persuasion; which they quickly learned can come in handy at the battlefield as well.
Nobody exept Rerki and Maggie can tell them apart, with both of them looking like an exacpt copy of the other. When Rerki gets asked hos she does it, she just stares at you like youre an complete idiot and scoffs at you, while Maggie will smile knowingly and tell you "Oh, but it's so very obvious. Don't you see it?"
It has been a mystery to this day how those two are able to tell them apart, much to Eimi's & Aimi's delight.
Then, there's Oldafyn the Silent; a mute Owl Shaman hailing from the far Shiverpeaks to fullfill her Spirit's calling in aiding Rerki in her fights against the Elder Dragon's.
She prefers the company of her trusted pet companions (a Snow Owl hatched from Owl's Abattoir and a Raven) over most people. She's a skilled trapper and tracker and her calm demeanor got her the honorable duty to step in whenever Zhekk and Makko get into another of their screaming arguments to calm them down - or force them apart and into each other's rooms if they fail to see reason.
And that's it! That's the gang! They're all very diffrent and have their moments of head-butting but in the end get along rather well and over the years developed a sense of family between each and every one of them.
