Dust, The Dying Star

[Dust]

Relations and Stuff

The Power:
Dust's ultimate power is transforming into a real-life werewolf, whose strength, speed, and attack are hard to beat. This comes at a cost. (See Payment) - But he does not possess this ability yet.
The Payment:
As a contractor, Dust has to make a payment to use his abilities. There are rumors of this being as gruesome as breaking your own fingers or burning yourself, or as peaceful as taking a nap. Dust merely has to kiss someone. Depending on his actions, he has to kiss the person longer, harder, and more passionately. While making out in the heat of battle might sound attractive - especially with a hot werewolf - it can be costly... Luckily he can hold out on his payment for an entire fight. But the cost can get out of control for the next person he comes in contact with.
[spoiler]TRUE PAYMENT
At the moment, Dust is free of the binds of contractors; but slowly and eventually he will lose his emotions again and think less of the heart and more with the brain. His second chance at life becomes a double edge sword: Being a Prime means he has to accomplish great things and become stronger, to become stronger means he loses more and more of the individual that he has become.[/spoiler]



NPCs

[/float]
Hoseki(Jewel/Gem) - A Secondary who specializes in surveillance. He looks a lot like Tamsin, but he acts like a zombie because he is a Doll. Nearly nothing is known about this figure, except he is a Doll summoned by Dust. Currently Missing: Dust is looking for him.
Dolls are emotionless "mediums" which seem like poorly responsive but otherwise normal human beings. Dolls usually do not show any emotion or independent action.
Dolls can use an observer spirit, a disembodied aura which can remotely access areas considerable distances from the Doll, allowing the Doll to observe what is in the area. Dolls have different mediums through which they can send their observer spirits and must be in contact with this medium while observing. They fulfill a variety of roles, typically acting as support to other operatives by using their observer spirits for reconnaissance and to locate and track targets and guide operatives to those targets. They can be tied into a computer network and act in groups. As well they make the perfect sleeper agent for some operations.

Eclipse - A Shiny Umbreon that appeared in the Nexus looking for aid against the Darklings that were terrorizing her home. She once upon a time had a trainer, though she has long forgotten his face. Now she travels with Gardevoir. While she hopes to help those she left behind, she understands that one Pokemon can only do so much.




Relationships

Dust is new to this friend thing, but hey they like him. That's great because he was seriously getting lonely...

Takezo - An ordinary human from an alternate past to Dust's original world. They bonded over the defeat of Golden Alliance in Dante's Abyss but before that a civil and interesting conversation. Dust and he meet back up on the beaches of Costa Del Sol and enjoy some beach time before continuing their friendship. (Shinmen is Retired)

Yuki (Dawn/Erika) - While Dust doesn't properly understand there's a difference he did gather from the two personalities that there might be something amiss. He still feels a companionship towards her and will be at her side again if she wants him.

Gildarts - When they met in the hall of Karl's pre-show building, Dust was consumed with excitement at the thought of challenging this individual, but Gildarts used neutrality to instead to win Dust over in the end. Now they are teacher and student, but also share a kinship for fighting and the ladies. Saw him last on a beach on an island, shortly afterward Dust was caught by the ocean.
Molly - After being convinced it was okay to kiss her, Dust found out a short time later that she was Gil's adopted daughter. He learned a lot about Molly at the beach.

Jak - A quiet but growly guy who seems nice enough. Dust didn't get to talk with him for long.

Illidan - It started out rough, but Dust and Illidan are on good terms. To say Dust saved his life would be overkill, he simply saved the elf from an attack. But the rarity of a human taking a hit for him opened a door that might not exist at all.

Deadpool - They've met.

Tamsin - Dust put himself out there really hard by kissing her for real. They shared first kisses and Dust slapped her with an awkward compliment before running off. He has a hardcore crush on her. She jumped into The Underverse right after Dante's Abyss and he catches himself thinking about her a lot.

Harlan Higgs - Dust had been drawn to him much like he had been drawn to Gildarts, for the thrill of a good fight. But the man under the magic of an artefact approved of the fight. They were interrupted and Dust was kissed instead of him doing the kiss before was sucker punched. Then Higgs invited him to come meet him in Tier 5 if he wanted before cooly leaving and left Dust dazed and confused.

Desman - They met on the beach at a bonfire. For whatever reason, Dust doesn't know, Desman kissed him. Then shortly after that, they left.

Ash - They shared s'mores on the beach. She was taking care of Jak last time he heard. She's not answering her phone at the moment.

Doomguy - They've met.
