01st transformation . video . locks for erik & charles
[ She greets the barge with a smile. Her appearance is 'normal' - normal for a human. No blue skin or yellow eyes in sight. ]
Hi. [ And a little wave. She regrets it immediately. That's kind of embarrassing, isn't it? And not something that she should be doing, because she's here for a purpose. ] I'm Raven.
I heard a few of my friends were here, so I thought I'd come⦠help. I'm a warden.
And I'm here because I really believe that even if you're trapped, you still should have a chance to figure out who you are. I think that's important.
[ locked to Erik ]
Well, you thought I was crazy for trying, but I found you.
[ locked to Charles ]
[ She considered her approach to this for a long time. There are a lot of things that they should probably say to each other, and she's supposed to be responsible here. She can't just avoid him, as much as she wants to, while she gets her head together. ]
You should know that I'm here.

Who are your friends?

I don't know who's here, but - Erik. Lensherr.

If you don't mind me asking, what's your power?

[ She is immediately much more on the defensive. ]

[Last part is NOT directed at her, it's a general lament. He sighs and flips a coin in the air then holds it mid air with a gentle push.] He and I are quite alike. More so than just the obvious... [he cants his head to the floating coin.]

You're responsible for a friend who's locked up. That's not enough to judge?
video/locked
So, is your reason for being here to break him out? Or do you really believe "even if you're trapped, you still should have a chance to figure out who you are?"
video/locked
But I also think he shouldn't be alone. Or surrounded by people who think he should be someone he isn't.

[He's a touch amused, she's a little like Vin, it's cute.] Would you like to know or have you assumed the worst?

My mother was more resourceful than most and hid her skaa heritage. Until our father found out and had her killed. My bother and I managed to escape and took to a life of crime. This was before I came into my powers.
My powers manifested after I was sent to the Pits of Hathsin as punishment for trying to rob the Lord Ruler himself. [He holds up a scarred arm so she can see.] No one survived the Pits until I did.
After my escape and discovery of my powers I felt the most sensible thing was to overthrow the Lord Ruler and change the world. You can guess the rest, I imagine.

Half of her wants to say 'it worked?' and the other half wants to say - ]
You died trying?

How are people with powers treated in your world?

If you are a skaa or Tarrisman with powers you're hunted down and killed.
