    Rhodes
    Mein

    Mein: Rhodes has pale whitish skin, elfin ears and deep, overly large emerald eyes. Thin black veins broach the surface of his skin like the roots of a tree emerging from the ground. Dark, broad leaves sprout from his wrists, ankles and temples, spreading around the back of his head. Deep red flowers bloom at the temples and wrists.
    Mantle

    Mantle: A breath of icy wind, the kind that penetrates and sends a chill down the spine. Ash leaves in red, yellow and gold spin into existance around him, caught on the breeze. As the wind blows, unnerving whispers can be heard, always coming from a direction just out of one's field of vision.

    The Dread Lord calls upon the Wyrd to strengthen the words he speaks. "For the next moon, may we be bound with this Vow - that we will not knowingly serve the Gentry or their servants, nor bring physical harm to each other or members of this Freehold by our action. As long as we hold true, our connection with those around us will be heightened, but should we break this bond such connection will be stripped from our natural skill." The Dread Lord offers a hand, smiling.

    The Pledge Sworn between James Turner and Rhodes at this Freehold Gathering.

    Flowering Fairest, Mantle: An ever-changing, spine-chilling icy wind, creating spinning autumn leaves and haunting whispers.

    Mien

    Softly shimmering gold flakes catch the light whenever she moves, delicate gilded and diamond scales extenuate the luminescent sapphires that are her eyes. The ocean lives in Sera's eyes, perfectly cut sapphires, gleam in the light. Deeper shades always shifting like the tide. The scales trail up to her temples and forehead. Her hair reaches down her back, brushing the back of her calves, spun silver and gold. Perfectly placed streaks of sea green are seen throughout her hair. Very fine diamond dust falls loose from her hair when she moves, reflecting rainbows from the light. The scales on her hands are dulled by the simple fact that her hands are translucent. There was an iridescent scale like skin that pulled delicately up from her ears. The membrane shimmered and created three curly points.

    Nix/Treasured
    Mantle

    Cherry blossoms gilded in gold bloom from her hair, tumbling down as a warm rejuvenating spring breeze gently kisses the air with the scent of freshly cut grass. The sound of birds singing can be heard as the wildflowers grow and bloom in vibrant colors where she walks, swaying and lively in the breeze.

    Mask
    A fairly tall woman, roughly 5'11 with long, wavy dark brown hair. Her eyes are an intense, deep bright blue, reminding one of sapphires. Her lips are full and her skin is flawless. With that perfection comes a body that men fawn and drool over, and women envy.

    With the Introduction of the New Pledge Calendar, this thread will be for the discussion of Pledges to see if they are mechanically sound before recording them within the Pledge Calendar.

    "I'll have me one of those sleep potions. I'll pay you in the only currency that matters around here: Glamour. My Glamour - smoked in the forge and shot through with Fear. Pledge pact - I get a potion, one of you draws a measure of Glamour from me."

    Pledge sworn between @Anatotle and the Elemental merchants at the Great Spider Bazaar.

    Pledge: Vow (invested in Anatole's Wyrd)
    Task: -1 Lesser Alliance (an honest and fair trade transaction, exchanging Glamour for a Sleep potion)
    Boon: +2 Medial - Glamour (Anatole transfers some of his own Glamour to one of the merchants)
    Sanction: -2 Medial Poisoning of Boon: Glamour (Anatole takes Glamour from one of the merchants)
    Duration: +1 Lesser duration: one (1) day or 24 hours


    NOTE: This is a 1 day / 24 hour Pledge. I'll leave it up to you Saber Sloth as to what day this Pledge occurs on, as if we go by site precedence, this won't occur till the day of the last post in the thread.



    Sloth Edit: Since it's a plot pledge and a 24hour one, I'll say, when the Scene enters Continuity.

    For the next season I vow to honor the pact and alliance we've made this evening and will aid to the best of my ability with whatever means are at my disposal, up to and including making your enemies my enemies and assisting you with them but not if it comes to my own death or having to commit murder For this Vow may our Harvests be full. If any of us fail to uphold this vow may we find success snatched from us, may our victory turn to loss.

    Type: Vow
    Task: Medial Alliance (-2)

    Pledge Talk is just for where you talk Pledges and test mechanics, since we've moved to the Calendar to record the Pledges.
