DQXI Characters’ and True Love

I cried while writing these <3

Erik

Erik is a man who wants. At first he thinks he wants the type of person that gives him the same high as a good heist. It’s not until later that he realises he’s looking for someone who leaves him feeling like there’s nothing left in the world to want.

Veronica

Veronica wants someone who will wait for her. She’s spent her whole life dragging her sister along behind her, and don’t get me wrong, she loves Serena. But maybe it’d be nice to have someone else take that lead for a change. Someone who will let her take her time.

Serena

Serena wants someone to love her in a way that makes her feel extraordinary. Maybe her storybooks are cliche, but can those happy endings be real? She’s a reincarnated legend. Can she be loved like that too?

Sylvando

Sylvando wants someone who smiles. A light of the world just like himself. Someone who’s really earned their smile lines, who knows how heavy it can be to carry the weight of unrelenting joy. Someone who will smile even in times that his own may falter.

Jade

I think Jade wants a love that feels like her next breath. The only thing she can feel certain will be there. Something that fills her lungs and keeps her heart beating. A love that she knows will always return to her. And she will fight to her last breath.

Rab

His late wife was his one true love. No one will ever hold a place in his heart that can compare. A love that made him feel like a man. A love that made him feel like a king. A love that burns like the sun, even if that sun has set.

Hendrik

Hendrik probably wants a love that feels like his bed. Soft and safe and secure in a way he’s almost forgotten. Always there for him at the end of the day. Intimate and quiet in a way that makes as much sense as the sky being blue.

Jasper

Jasper wants the type of love that he sneaks out at night for. A love that’s hidden away in the castle gardens and known only by the light of the moon. Something he keeps tucked safely against his chest so that no one else may take it from him.

What is the funniest pokemon move

Suddenly thinking again about the orb's powers the Sentinels used, and if those abilities were originally usable by the orb's original owners. Or perhaps, a reverse of those powers.

Red Orb: Increases' party defence by 50% Blue Orb: Removes debuffs Yellow Orb: Returns anyone turned to gold back to normal Green Orb: Reduces MP drained by certain abilities Silver Orb: Unleashes righteous lightning on enemies Purple Orb: Allows the wielder to create a clone of themself

Nice things the DQXI Party would say (or think) about Erik 🩵

Veronica

Not much that she’d actually tell him about.

Veronica def respects his go-getter attitude. I feel like she’s also secretly super impressed by his niche market knowledge

Serena

Deeply respects Erik’s willingness to go to the ends of the earth for people he cares about. Heart of gold!

Thinks he’s rather cute too

Sylvando

Adores Erik’s dance moves! So suave and stylish!

Not the worst campsite cook either!

Jade

Eternally grateful for everything Erik’s done to protect the Luminary up until the point she found him again

For someone whose combat is informally trained and recreational at best? His skills are crazy impressive

Rab

Such a spry young lad! He wishes he had such a spirit when he was a young man!

It’s very cool to him that Erik has practical magic like Peek. And his Earth magic that just exists for some reason.

(Spolers for Act 2 Below)

Hendrik

Man was he annoying when Hendrik wasn’t fighting on the same side as him.

I think on a meta-level, Erik kind of helps Hendrik internally recontextualise what it means to be a good person

Say something nice about- Erik!
