ER:Hikari

From The Heretic Knowledge Vault

A player character in the Errant Road on-line free-form role-playing game, portrayed (briefly) by User:Alessa. Needless to say, she doesn't exist in the Poe-verse.

Her basic concept is shown here. She's a Tsuirakuan teenager who recently graduated from high school in the Tsuiraku-town district of the Farrelian city of ER:Rinkaiel. When semi-PC Galina starts offering basic magic lessons to Rinkaelian mage-wannabes, to get a body of local talent ready to be trained to work at the warp gate soon to be opened there, Hikari decides to give it a try. It doesn't take long, however, for Galina (and Hikari, who's not terribly confident in her own abilities) to discover that her skills are already far beyond the "basic" level, and Galina decides instead to take her on as a "teaching assistant" to help with the students that she hopes are on the way.

Unfortunately, her arrival coincides with Galina getting crosswise with several nasty forces in Tsuiraku-town, generally not for reasons of her own doing. Galina takes her infant daughter Oxana to shelter at the Bad Ass Wines vineyard, run by her friend (and magic student) Layla, until things quiet down, leaving Hikari to house-sit for her. While doing so, she unwittingly stumbles across what appears to be a magical extortion attempt involving death magic and Oxana by forces unknown. This fails (the kidnapee is out at the vineyard, after all), but it terrifies Hikari to the point that she abandons the lessons and goes back to her settled, but un-threatened, life. (This coincides with her player becoming unable to continue in Errant Road, so it's a graceful way out for all involved.) All in all, an interesting character who isn't on stage for as long as one might wish, but such is the way of role-playing games.
