Tsumi's History

Character Sheet
A summary of her story up until this point. (Updated-9/9/08)

Tsumi's Timeline
Records her past events in the stream of time.

Current Story

Tsumi set up her two now teenaged boys in she and Anthony's Bastok home. Initially she took most of the time to teach them basic combat and skills they would need and searching for Anthony.

Once she was satisfied they knew enought to train and function without her reasonably well she began spending part of her time in Al Zhabi working for the Empire with the Immortals. She has recently freed the "Soul Partner" a tiger hoping she could gain some freedom with it out of Imperial Clutches.

Tsumi has embarked on an uneasy relationship with the Immortals now. Unwilling to become one of them, and now that she is in possession of the Soul Partner, they have become more willing to bargain. She has agreed to become an assansin of sorts again, a hunter of rogue Blue Mages, only killing the targets before her. She is also begining to seek to strengthen her Blue Magic by advancing in her training. Learning of her past as an assasin the Immortals have put her into a secret unit that hunts down and kills Blue Mages that have succombed to their beasts within or whose transplants have gone wrong. Officially it doesn't exist and only is only one of the ordinary units in the ranks of the ordinary troops but in fact is directly under the control of Raubahn and the Alchemists.

An Altana extremist group called the Steele Wing Militia has uncovered her past and notified all of the Linkshell of the warrants and bounty on her. This has driven her to go into hiding in Al Zhabi and make plans hoping that until she is ready to move no one tries to use her sons against her.


The Journal

Hidden safely is a worn leather bound journal, some of which's pages are stained in blood, and it lies dusty and neglected. Next to it is a new clean crisp tome. Fewer of its pages are written on but it continues to be of use.


An open letter is left tacked up to the wall in the Bastok apartment with a heading:

Do not remove unless you are Anthony
 
10/01/08 (Vana equivalent)

Anthony,

I'm sorry, but my past has come back to haunt me and ruin that sanguine little dream you had of us and our family living in a little house safe and happy watching as they made lives for themselves. Armonde and Vincent are what's most important now and having a connection to me is now putting them in danger. I'm sorry my husband that I've failed but I shall do what I must to ensure their safety and future. When you return, for I still have faith you shall, I can only hope you shall find me no matter where and what I might have become.

Never forget that I love you.

Your Wife,

Tsumi/Tyra


9/25/08
I received another letter from Anthony and I don't know whether to be angry or happy. I'm happy to know he's still alive and alright but I'm angry he still can't remember how to get home.

Damn you Kogenai. You had to go sacrificing yourself, didn't you?

The only two men I trust, the only two people I trust, have now left me alone. Now here I am on a lonely vigil watching over my boys. It's funny how even the vary idea of being able to talk to someone about anything had become so comforting to me. I'm not about to burden my boys with all the details of my past and my current activities for the Immortals. I just have to get used being alone again, true I have my family to bring me some measure of happiness and I spend time with them but I am also their teacher, guardian and protector.

I have to keep walls up between myself and everyone. There is no one I can trust to put them down around. Such is is existance of a monster like me.


Previous Entry:

Well, at least I can be happy about some things. The twins are doing quite well and Kogenai's sister is back. At least, those are two things I don't need to worry about any longer.

On the other hand, I still can't find Anthony and ever day it weighs on me more. I miss him terribly and I worry about him since the last note indicated he was injured and perhaps lost much of his memory. I'll feel a complete failure if I continue to not be able to find him.

On the other hand I have succeeded in liberating my "Soul Partner" from the Alchemist's lab. I've secreted her away where the Immortals won't readily think of finding; I'm keeping her in a facility for the holding of Pankertron animals. I've been frequneting the place for sometime and kept a tiger here so it was an easy substitution. So now I can take the time to figure out what to do with "Dark Stalker". I thought the name apporpriate and the satdium expects them to be named. So now I need to see how much Stalker can do and how much I'll be able to connect with her and maybe one day I can let her out from lock and key.

Alternate Characters and NPCs

Armonde Rangmone (Deceased Father/Story)

My father, my last memories of him are when he and my mother left me in San d'Oria to help out the soldiers fighting in the Crystal War. Its been a while, and as time so often does, and my memories have faded to the point sometimes I'm not sure what he exactly he looked like. I've been tempted to go to the past and refresh my memory but I'm afraid of changing my future.

Ashtari Wahcandalo (Alternate)

Another cheerful young mithra. I've heard her a few times on the Pearl but haven't really had much of a conversation with her.
I have heard that she apparently is some kind of Cheiftainess on Elshimo which is surprising to say the least. I personally haven't heard of her. I've heard she's involved with Duel now.

Cecile Rangmone (Mother/Story)

I remember her as exceedingly kind and very beautiful. As with my father, knowing she is alive in the past, I am tempted to try and see her for one last time. She was also a very talented White Mage and Doctor which was why she went out to help in the war.

Crystalrella Gildencoven (Alternate)

A young hume street urchin from San d'oria. I got a birth announcement saying she had a daughter. I hope the girl is capable of teaching her child to take care of herself. Time will tell.

Feliz (Story)

Sadly at one time this man I was one I thought I could trust, and I even began to care for him, but he betrayed my confidence to the man training both of us as mercenaries. Thanks to him I couldn't trust any man until Anthony came along.

Lilulu Wabin-Tabin (Alternate)

An extremely naivee young tarutaru that wants to marry a paladin. Good luck to her since I have the only decent one as my husband.

Robin Wabin-Tabin (Alternate)

A mage, scholar and artist/musician of somekind. He's not a knight but somehow earned a title as "Sir". He cares a lot about proper decorum and being "a gentleman". Not much else to say about this one.

Her Family

Posted Image

Anthony Daitreo (Husband/PC)

I still can't find him even when he sent me a note. He thinks enough to send me a letter but doesn't think enough to ask someone to tell him where he was so he could communicate it to me. There has to be someone somewhere that could direct him home, he could of even asked the moogle. Kupla hasn't been able to trace it back to the moogle.

I miss him. Kogenai is right, I'm miserable, but I should be used to that, my life has been one disaster after another. Its like I have a carrot dangling in front of my face and can't reach it. I want him back.

Armonde Daitreo (Son/Alternate)

Armonde has begun training with Seigfried, though reluctantly, so I hope it will change his mind about the dark power he has inherited from me. Seigfred is watching him now and I hope he's prepared for any troubles that will occur. At least I have him as an ally in this, as he indicated in a letter, so I am trusting him to watch my son's back while I work from the shadows. He's not sure what to think of me now, I could hear it in his voice, but I don't want to burden him with the details of my life that led me to kill. I only hope he can trust me and forgive me for what he must go through.


Vincent Daitreo (Son/PC)


He doesn't understand why I'm pushing him so hard to set himself up with a samurai trainer right after I pulled him into hiding in Al Zhabi. He's listening at least. I wish there was more I could do to prepare him for what's ahead.

Player Character Associates:

Adida

A new hume girl that seems quiet and unassuming. I also have learned she's rather foolish and knows it which was worse. She was hanging on every word of this elvaan working for the church who had absolutely no interest or respect for her or anyone else. To pursue him knowing his low opinion of her is utter stupidity.

She was there when Kogenai died and stayed with Chibine. I suppose the girl has found a bit of a backbone.

Anaris Ademas

An odd character. I've heard some say he's a vampire. I'm not one to completely reject legend and seeing as I'm a soul-eating dark energy manipulater anything is possible.

Apollo Castes (Phalnax)

A paladin turned Dark Knight I have heard once or twice. He seems rather upbeat for a Dark Knight.

“Chibine” Komimi Mihgo (A Curiosity)

One of the three chi's. Kogenai finally made his choice, her, as he died. She seemed despondant, I can't blame her. Her mourning seems done and she's back at work. I believe I can count on her as an ally in what's to come.

“Chi” Komimi Mihgo (A Curiosity)

One of the three chi's. She is wandering and training as a Dark Knight of all things pining for Sair who has been missing. She still has the most sense of all of the "sisters" and is decent to speak with. She seems to be acting strangely lately, apparently mourning Sair. I can understand somewhat but doing nothing but staying in doors to mope won't help her.

Chibine “Komimi” Mihgo (A Curiostiy)

A simple, perpetually happy mithra Dragoon who can’t pronounce anyone’s name right. The first to be attacked but that hasn't damped her spirits.

Drahcir Shadowhysper

A wraith turned mortal that is married to Tryn. He has made peace with his dark side and is a father now. He has his wife back so he must be feeling pleased with himself. I only hope his guidance shall teach my son to be a decent paladin. He will be a strong ally to my son.

Hideo Wiramashu(Neutral)

This samurai now works mostly for Al Zhabi and says he has my back. He almost seems friendly if that's possible. Still I don't trust him, regardless of what he says, though he might be someone I shall fight with in the Empire.

Jayden Delacroix(Neutral)

Apparently he's planning an Assualt on the Militia with Hideo. I could use the distraction from me they'll create to my advantage most likely.

Sir Kaliet Del'Mielith Seres Arthune (A Curiosity)

Once again she's with child. She infromed me of the warrant, for that I'm grateful, though I'm not sure what she thinks about me privately.

Kelset

A young elvaan man that is the latest addition to our group. He had the audacity to come up and whisper in my ear. I really don't like this young fool.

Korevant

A pawn of the church. I could tell he wanted to strangle me when I "blasphemed" his beloved Goddess. He was the typical self-righteous and intolerant church agent that I remember from my youth. I know she tolerated those like me for the sake of balance and truly only favors a few leaving the rest to struggle.

Kogenai Windrunner (Trusted Friend)

Kogenai is only the second person I've now told all my story to. Like the only other friend I had in my life he is now dead. I hope he died happy. I still don't know if there is an after life but if there is one I'm sure Altana would smile on him.

Kohari

Another mercenary that talks like she's the greatest and most fear inspiring thing in the world. I'm not so sure.

Sairan "Sair" Gammonari

Yet again he has returned, this time he's the right gender but still mithra. He remembers nothing right now.

Seigfreid Morgoth (Respected Associate)

A young arrogant Dark Knight that admires his Paladin heritage and is now some-what of a lost soul. I've now had to leave him in charge of Armonde's saftey and I hope he's up to the task. Recently he's displayed a lack of self control I find disturbing.

Silent Shot (Respected Associate)

A fellow professional I am glad to have in my corner. One of the ew individuals I beleive is more than capable of killing me. He has many good ideas and I think that he shall help make my plans successful.

Sowilo

It seems she's no longer the young idealistic mithra that she was before she disappeared. She was trapped with Zhrali in the past and changed quite a bit. Seems more of a seasned warrior than before.

Sulfig (A Curiosity)

This young pirate has proved the that he is a fool and has enough dumb luck to escape certain death. He insists on wearing a pumpkin on his head and laughs insanely at things that only seem funny to him. He's now Hideo's student and seems to think that his master is the greatest mercenary and fighter ever born. Think again.

I think he was there the other night and killed some things.

Tema Windsong (A Curiosity)

A mithra who happens to be some kind of siren. My abilities seem to fastinate her and she's trying to befriend me.

Somehow she seems to think it was a good idea to learn some of my past and that it would somehow earn her my respect. She says she's not my enemy but that's far from trustworthy.

Tryn Shadowwhysper(A Curiosity)

Well now apparently she's normal and a mother. Kogenai died for her so I hope she appreciates it.

Zyth (A Curiosity)

A young samurai with a fastination for things in Shadow. I gave him a pearl to Gauntlet for which he pledged his loyalty. A little odd and naivee if you ask me but he's an able fighter and ally. He helped me rescue my boys but disappeared in the middle of the operation. I have yet to ask him where he went.

Zhrali Arthurine (A Curiosity)

Well this girl is the daughter of Kaliet and Zylant. She's possessed by some spirits calling themselves "the Fates" who run the show by given commands through riddles. She's back with her family and I hope that Kogenai is happy to have her family together.

Zylant (A Curiosity)

Kogenai's father, a male mithran assasin, with a great reputation from the past. He was genuinely touched that I have made a vow to protect his family. Even with what's to come I shall be bound to my vow.

Past Associates (Gone but not Forgotten)

Aucia/Hidden Moon (Considers family)

I have mixed feelings and opinions of this simple-minded mithra. I no longer dislike the girl but her strange, logical behavior one moment, and then illogical and hopelessly clueless moments at others I still find annoying. Despite her sickness she came to help me free my boys. I do wonder what will become of her now though.

Caith Arias(Respected Associate)

This hume man is a puzzle, he's gone from Summoner and now more lately to a Corasair. He's not around a lot lately but seems to be more reticent and quiet sense his last death. He hasn't left his sense of humor or fondness for heckling people.

"Cinderwalk" Jaden Ohrun Flamefist (Disliked)

Another strange, sad hume. He alternates with a lost depressed mood and his usual cocky “I am the Magus” mood which he amazingly held onto despite his memory loss. He disappeared.

Dual Mikau Zero (Respected Associate)

Another that has returned on the brink of death in someone else’s body although he is original enough to have his memories. He roped Anthony and Seigfried into helping him with some ceremony that supposedly was to save his life. He's alive again with a new girlfriend, Ashtari.

Hikura Tompre (Considers Family)

The “new” Hikura is hardly around and as evasive as ever. He actually seems to have split in half physically again. "Hacker" the demon-half who I always thought hated me was actually quite pleasant toward me. "Hikura" is depressed and doesn't seem to be doing anything in regards to Aucia. He assisted in my boys rescue. He seems even more distant and his behavior makes me wonder what will become of him in the future.

Hellequin

An odd mithra male. Seems to like killing.

Liu Sei-Long

A tarutaru that is a drunken womanizer who’s only redeeming virtue is he keeps his hands to himself while he fantasizes. Anthony has apparently decided the taru’s skills as a Samurai will help him to learn to better defend our family. This fact seemed to make him feel he had a right to eavesdrop on me and Anthony. Well if the taru is truly helping Anthony become more of a match for Shade I suppose I can learn to tolerate him.

Maijin (Partly-Respected Associate)

An elvaan mercenary that was made a half-demon by experiments run by the Shadow Hand. He also taught me a few useful things about the "Dark Power" I was apparently born with. I owe him for teaching me and he has been of some help to both Anthony and I but at times he annoys me. Like so many he disappeared. I was told that he was a previous experiement of the Shadow Hand before their "success" with me. I wonder now what his fate was.

Mezzo-Piano

A small taru mage that I hear from time to time. Nothing special here...

Nesirae Shadowhysper

How this arrogant Knight from Sand d'oria has fallen. He went insane, burned down his house, left his lover at the alter and is now hated and viewed as a traitor.

Nika

Tema's fiancee. Brutal and psycotic it seems.

Ryu John (Respected Friend)

This hume samurai seems equal parts annoyingly fixated on "honor" and to be a consummate realist. Ryu is one of the few people that I view as a friend. He learned of my past yet has not come after me but I know if his superior ordered him to track me down he would. He now seems obsessed with devorcing himself from all emotion as it is unecessary for life and often gets in the way reminding me of myself before I met Anthony. Also it is an effort to put all the pain and hurt he has been through, I cannot fault him on this either. Now he seems colder toward me and almost angry and I suspect that it is not just because I am learning Blue Magic. I think it is also because he cared for me and therefore he is divorcing himself that reminds him he has feelings. I fear there may come a time when I can no longer consider him a friend.

I received a letter that he has died and this saddens me. My trust in him waned at times but over all he was a good ally to have. I hope he finds happiness in paradise with his beloved Rena.

Tomas Caith

A strange scholar that claims to be from one of the Islands to the South. He somehow knows about my past but says he won't reveal it unless I do him harm so we are at a standstill.

Vinval Valentine (Considers Family)

A young Paladin of the worst kind, overly eager, arrogant, impulsive, immature, somewhat insane and still at the last he proved himself courageous, brave and loyal. Vinval killed himself instead of my unborn children and now in death earned the respect he didn’t in life. I would’ve been proud to call him brother if he had survived.

Hey Seig.

She still thinks of him as young since he is younger than her, She's 33 remember, but his recent outburst has convinced her that he's still immature. He seemed to blame his outburst on the others rather than his own decison in a way to act in response when there were other ways. You have to remember Tsumi is arrogant herself so she doesn't really view it as a character flaw unless it clouds judgement.
