• Nobles of Null is a forum based roleplay site where sci-fi and magic collide. Here, Earth remains fractured and divided despite humanity reaching out to the stars. Worse still, the trans-human slaves of one major power have escaped, only to establish their own Empire, seething with resentment at abuses of the past. Even the discovery of aliens, though medieval in development, has failed to rally these squabbling children of Earth together with its far darker implications. Worse still, is the discovery of the impossible - magic. Practiced by the alien locals, nearly depleted and therefore rare, its reality warping abilities remains abstract and distant to the general populace. All the while, unseen in the darkness of space, forces from without threaten to press in. For those with eyes opened by insight, it is clear that an era is about to end, and that a new age will dawn.

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda spent a moment or two watching the 'patients' before asking the obvious question, no doubt romping its way through everyone else's minds as well. "Well? What did they write?"

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda nudged the sunglasses up a bit higher on her nose. Answers awaited, and probably an equally vague number of questions with them - when she had the time. At least that was something. Using the sunglasses like regular sunglasses, now, she scanned the crowd and found her attention drawn to...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda had a nice, nondescript, but very businesslike hanfu, a pair of sunglasses, and the appropriate attitude. This was, more or less, the actual and legitimate job of a bodyguard. She started to step forward and clear the path, physically if it proved necessary - her chest ached, but Fioda...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda stirred at Amisra's touch, but she didn't move beyond opening her eyes and staring up at the ceiling. Her chest hurt. The light irritated her. She closed her eyes again and listened. Bed, gown - some old human man who knew the two lapdogs. Fioda took a slow, deep breath, and found...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda paused in the doorframe, taking the scene in at length. After a while, she realized that Amisra had been talking to her and had to call up her words again. "Yes." Fioda had heard about this and seen some of it. The cruelty humans exhibited knew no boundaries; they named whatever they...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Magic. Actual, real magic. For a moment, as her knees lost their strength, her heart having gone absurdly wild, Fioda felt betrayed. Had they known it would kill her, along with everyone involved? 'Finish the ritual?' As she got her breath back, or at least some semblance of breath, Fioda...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda had drifted back towards Gwaed and Amisra; she was technically their security detail, after all, though honestly, it seemed hardly necessary. She had removed her helmet in the 'fresh' air, having already received, she assumed, all of the basic instructions that she was going to get. The...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Much like Gwaed, most of Fioda's attention had shifted almost completely to the human in train with the high priest. What purpose could they possibly have for it? Were they going to kill it in some sort of weird, stabby ritual? Was that why she was being asked to trot along through what was...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda just... stared. Yes, she got the message. And no, it didn't look like she would have to work very hard to get the High Priest in where he needed to be - where they needed him to be. The orders weren't 'make sure they get the site', they were 'complete the ritual.' Whether or not they...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda felt it necessary, at least, to return the short bow with a fist over her chest. She had, after all, more or less caused their visit to happen in her own way. As far as the parties involved, she was actually slightly more inclined to the priesthood in front of her. Fioda remembered very...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda drummed her fingers on her thigh, looking at the blank wall again. The researcher, Bukang, had irritated her. While elves on the whole were patient, Fioda herself had personally been burned by the tendency; one could suffer quite a lot, with enough patience. That could be as much a flaw as...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda looked back up at the blank spot on the wall, mulling that question - why? - over, herself. She blinked a few times as an idea bubbled to the surface. While it was certainly possible that the elves of yore had hidden it for some reason, Fioda suddenly thought it more likely that someone...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    The Kongjian had irritated Fioda, but not enough to complain of. Something about an international force of space-bravos didn't sit well with her. Although she didn't feel possessive or proprietary of the secrets inside the ruins, as some of the other explorers might, she boiled it down to the...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    Fioda shed the outer shell of her suit, tearing her helmet off as fast as she could twist it free. She had bound her hair up, or it would have spilled out as she coughed. Comparatively speaking, she was in better shape than most people, but the dash had eaten through her oxygen reserves and that...

    Day in the Life: Aos Si Ruins on Jing

    What the fuck? The vision felt disjointed. Manufactured, perfect, and surreal - but not in the way that human tech could replicate. This had to be organic, not a hologram, and Fioda realized it had to be magic. Magic. They had at least been right about this place's value. Amisra snapped her out...
