Searing hatred, frigid darkness… the sins festering your soul should have condemned you to oblivion along with everyone else you loved and cherished and yet these fickle parameters that defined your essence were anchored to something more tangible. You could feel your own heartbeat in the great void that had successfully muted your other senses until now, a crack spreading like all directions around you…. the faint smell of freedom? Crash, thud, pitter-patter… a solid ground made from shattered dreams. Your reflection… failure . You had no reason to manifest after what you have done. Existence, heavy breathing, limbs too fragile to support your adult body….you were naked and afraid from the sea of nothingness surrounding you. You had no choice but to crawl towards the unknown away from the artificial womb that had given you a second chance in life, if you could call your pitiful existence a life worth living. You should have died long time ago with the rest of your timeline “That’s it my little Fluxxer or should I call you my little Exile? , come a little closer to Uncle Thaleon . Don’t be afraid, I am perfectly sane now for the sake of our next little game.” A disembodied hand beckoning you. A beacon of dread in the vast emptiness of this purgatory…you were drawn to such vileness whether you liked it or not. You… who were you? >Aoi Takahashi [Thaleon Counter: High, Fluxxing Distance: Short, Q-Clot gain: Medium]Exile background: Overwhelmed by her duties as a Fluxxer , Aoi was unable to even reach the first of four waves to oblivion dooming many timelines due to her sheer incompetence. Truth was, it was hardly her fault… her sole enemy was time and time only. Thaleon had taken interest in her forcing him to save her from such fate.Alpha Skill: Every combat encounter increase overall ATK by 10%, Every non-combat encounter increase overall Q-Clot by 10%>Kumi Kurasugi [Thaleon Counter: Low, Fluxxing Distance: Long, Q-Clot gain: Very Low]Exile background: Perhaps one of the few Fluxxers who pondered about whether Erebium was edible or not. It started with a few strips of immaterial flesh before the self-proclaimed Unborn gourmet would lose herself entirely. Amazed by her depraved gluttony, Thaleon would keep her one for something far more entertaining.Alpha skill: Special action in RESPITE encounter (Cook Unborn parts), Bosses take extra damage depending on the number of cooked Unborn.1/2
>>6422069>Kenzo ‘The Iron Bull’ Kurogane [Thaleon Counter: Medium, Fluxxing Distance: Medium, Q-Clot gain: Medium]Exile background: After learning about as role as a Fluxxer, his true nature and the Promethean Recoil restraining most of his actions, Kenzo had given up on protecting Japan and in turn many timelines. He was but an instrument at the end, one who would sit idly while the Unborn invasion would obliterating everything he once cherished. Thaleon was intrigued by such despair brimming in his ‘heart’.Alpha skill: When an allied Fluxxer dies, permanently buff Kenzo in all aspects, if Kenzo is last Fluxxer alive, transform his mecha in Saigo no Masakado>Herr Johan [Thaleon Counter: Very High, Fluxxing Distance: Very short, Q-Clot gain: Very High]Exile background: once known as Daiki Kato, Johan would personally kill the Yakuza she-boss controlling the criminal underbelly of Japan (his mother) with his bare hands for what she had done to him and his father. He became a changed man seeking only material wealth over the years. Being a Fluxxer was simply a side thing for him. He offered humanity on a silver platter for the Unborn mostly out of spite for he saw nothing worth saving in these selfish cretins. His reward should have been death had it not been for Thaleon whisking him away.Alpha Skill: Can pay Q-clot to skip focal points. Can negotiate with certain Unborn in both combat and non-combat encounters. >Mosou Niji [Thaleon Counter: Very Low, Fluxxing Distance: Medium, Q-Clot gain: Low]Exile background: Other Fluxxers who might have saved the world were killed by him in a moment of rage upon learning of the death of his precious step sister , Kyoko Hashimato. He realized what he had done but it was already too late…well, not quite. This Rat King would be perfect for this rat race. How fitting!Alpha Skill: Can snag a ‘free’ service according to the nature of the focal point. Will split Thaleon Counter evenly with ??? “By the by, you are not the only Exile in this race. Others are bound to join you verrry soon heheheee~ “ Keywords Thaleon Counter: The sword of death hanging over Exiles in their doomed journey, once it reaches 100%, it is game over. The Lower, the better.Fluxxing Distance: Distance covered between each encounter or focal point. The longer, the better.Q-clot gain: Ability to gain currency/ Victory point . The higher, the better.

>>6422075>>6422083>>6422089 “Aaaah, Aoi or Yoi? Mistakes and Miracles, Hand in hand. Pun intended.” the disembodied hands would clap half sarcastically while visions of the past would bombard your mind. Did you really fail them…? “Tutututut, no daydreaming now, Exile. Uncle Thaleon got a verrry important job for you. Let me joggin your noggin for a second here. I am an entire timeline manifesting into a single being . Long story short, I get bored very easily sooo I thought, why not give others a chance ? A brand new timeline. Just you, Kumi-chan and a perfectly normal high school student life, no nasty Unborn to muck everything up again.” “You…can do that?” Your question was accompanied by a peaceful sensation washing over your body as your skin was finally yours along with your high school outfit. You could see your trusty Mecha floating in the void behind these hands. “Of course! I am beyond Orpiment..erm, Opp… Omnipotent, that’s the word.” his holy fingers kept snapping while trying to recall a single word “Back to business, Exile. Simple goal: Make it to the [Heart] with more Q-Clot the other Exile. You, Alpha. The, Omega. Take turns and of that game-y nonsense. Not making it easy on buuuttt it should be much simpler that all of that crunch from before. Come on, hop innn~” “Feels good to be back…” You didn’t imagine saying those words again the moment you were teleported back to the cockpit. A plethora of wires caressing your bare body once more…some things would never change, it seemed. Not exactly true… ALPHA EXILES Aoi Takahashi ATK : 10 HP : 10/10 (OPTIMAL) DEF : 5 Alpha Skill : Every combat encounter increase overall ATK by 10%, Every non-combat encounter increase overall Q-Clot by 10% Q-Clot: 0 “Simple, clean, no big messy in the hessy.
