four great beasts, born of man
gifted power from before the world began
shall see the world in desolation
and bring it the gift of revelation

- Umbrax, the fate speaker



(This will be a mostly text-based quest, on account of me being bad at drawing and work taking the time I would need to draw)

Four figures stand upon an island suspended high in the sky, crowded around a viewing pool as, shown within it, a small child squirms quietly in blankets unaware of the fate it has been saddled with. After a moment, the first of the figures, a tall figure draped in several layers of bright green, turns away from the pool and takes several steps away from it before he breaks the silence.

"Is this the first of the 4 great beasts? It looks kind of pathetic."

The second figure, a short bright woman wearing a purple robe with an open back for the large black wings that adorne her back, turns to look at the green man as she responds.

"They're just a child, of course they're small..."

She glances up at the cloudless sky around them as she continues.

"Give them time to grow Xenilos, maybe they'll even impress you someday."

The third figure, a scantily clad, pale teenage boy with rainbow hair tied into a pony tail behind him, calls back to the two that have looked away from the pool.

"Xenilos, Edite, we are about to see the child!"

As the winged woman, Edite, snaps her attention back to pool, the green figure, Xenilos, begins to walk away as he yells to the group.

"Contact me when it gets interesting Drake, I'm gonna go make more trouble for the humans."

He pauses as he stops and turns to look at the fourth figure.

"Don't fuck this up for us Parten, this might be our way out of this glorified prison."

Xenilos walks to an edge overlooking the vast open sky around and below them, and without a second thought jumps over the edge.

The fourth figure, Parten, a purple skinned humanoid with a stony expression, looks to the two that remain looking at the pool with him.

"Does he have to be such a jerk about this?"

A hush falls over the three as the child in the pool kicks aside the blankets that had previously covered it...

You, are a young girl, almost human, apart from the two small dark protrusions on each side of your abdomen, and the small splotches of dark coloration on the back of your hands. As you reveal yourself in your crib, you are seemingly unnoticed by anyone in the room.

Around the room are many identical cribs, most of which are currently unattended and unwatched aside from three nurses standing spaced around the edges of the room, and a group of five well-dressed individuals that are walking around the room, assessing each child and taking notes in a small pad of paper that each one seems to carry.

As two of the well-dressed people near your own crib, they are momentarily distracted by the nurses calling out as one of the cribs a small distance away from you erupts in flames, almost immediately one of the two that was approaching you, as well as two of the other wanderers rush over to the now burning crib and begin to whisper quietly about the child within as one of the nurses brings a small red stone over to the fire, the nurse lightly tosses the stone unto the child within and almost immediately the flames begin to die, leaving only embers as evidence of the fires presence.

The other person that was nearing you, a tall elegant woman with large curly hair kept from her face by the large ram horns on either side of her face, turns her attention back to the route she was walking, she stops at one crib, wrinkles her nose at what ever it contains, and then she is at your own crib, looking down at you with surprise on her face.

"What sort of animal are you?"

She reaches into your crib and pokes one of the small protrusions on the side of your body.

"Hmm... Extra limbs, maybe? Are you something mythical, something weird, or just really deformed?"

She grabs your hand in her own and turns it over to look at the strange dark spots.

"You might be useful though..."

She looks you in the eyes for a moment, before glancing at a small metal plate attached to your crib, and then looking back to you.

"Alright Xee, got any special talents that you wanna show me before I continue looking at all your friends here?"

Despite your youth, you can feel magic bubbling within you, unkempt and formless, but also malleable.

Would you like to
A - Perform magic! what do you do
B - Do nothing! be boring
C - Something else entirely, make a suggestion

You warp space slightly, drawing her face closer so you can have a better look. One day, you could perhaps use this power to cross large distances, but for now you can merely move things about a little or make distances seem greater or smaller.

Push the limits of your body (Chi-Casting) and stick your tongue out beyond what it is supposed to be capable of.

Lick a random shadow.

do some magic to blend in with the surroundings, camouflage rather than invisibility
