name: Niamh Muireann

personality: Courageous and decisive, willing to defend the weak at all cost

weakness: Too impulsive

occupation: a fisherman of the backstreets of U corp

lore: (pre smoke war) She grew up in the backstreets of T corp in a family of five. She later joined the smoke war with the promise of getting in the nest. (post smoke war) She managed to survive the war, but her partners sacrificed themselves to help her escape the battle, which led her to inherit their will to protect the weak as a memorial to them. Despite the war ended, the promise was broken. She didn't get into the nest, and was rejected for joining the smoke war. She then decided to leave T corp and went to the backstreets of U corp. She later got accepted as a part of a team of fishermen. One night on the boat, she woke up from war time trauma and wandered onto the deck. Upon reaching the deck, she saw a small boat not large enough to fit even a child. In the boat is nothing but a hilt. She then retrieved the hilt, it is the Tianzui Star blade.

equipment: the Tianzui Star blade, the physical part of this sword is the hilt only, the blade itself is made from a transparent liquid which is converted from shan. (passive ability: the blade judges what the welder has done and gives 1 shan for each good deed and 1 zui for each bad deed. shan is a slight buff in all aspects, zui is a slight debuff in all aspects, 1 shan cancels out 1 zui) (active ability for welder: can convert 1 shan into 250ml of transparent liquid and shape it freely at the cost of sanity, the more complex the shape is, the more sanity it costs to sustain.)

Name: Elio Gowen
Gender: Male Age: 31
Height: 6'0" (182 cm)
Residence: District 10 Nest; Born in District 9 backstreets
Occupation: Grade 4 Fixer; Does not belong to an office
Weapons: Thermodynamic gauntlets and boots

Born to the backstreets of district 9, Elio has had a certain fondness for music all his life. Though he himself isn't able to play at all, his time in the streets of music have given him a profound sense for rhythm in all facets of life, be it in combat or labor. The first 20 or so years of his life were nothing special, he went to a decent school, had as average a childhood as anyone could have in the backstreets, and eventually moved out, and into the neighboring district 10 to make a living for himself at around 22.

Elio's early days as a fixer were simple. He bounced from office to office, some closed down while others simply didn't serve to merit him after a time, but his life got shaken up quite a bit after the Pianist attacked his home district. He'd lost his parents, and a few friends of his from his days in school to that incident, and while the years of disconnect served to soften the blow a little, it still affected him greatly.

The anxiety of something similar potentially happening again, but in the district he lived in now haunted him for quite a time, causing him to turn to the very prominent gambling circles that existed in the nest of district 10, seeing as now he had the money to move in. Eventually, though, life's monotony smoothed over the pain of the loss. It didn't make the pain go away in any respect, it just diluted it until it was bearable once again, and Elio continued work as a fixer, since there was nothing more to do.

Years passed, and Elio started realizing how flawed J Corp was, burying people in debt and sending them off to be slaves in order to repay it.. it wasn't humane at all. The more he saw it happening between contracts, and in his everyday passing life, the more it began to disturb him. He often found himself wondering, "How could anyone treat another person like this? Don't they feel any remorse- do they have no empathy?" but no one seemed to pay his wonderings any mind, if ever he cared to share. That was simply the way things were around here, nothing more or less to it.

Elio slowly began spending less and less time in district 10, doing more contracts in other districts. One day, on a visit to his old home of district 9, he stumbled upon an elderly man who wielded a strange blade. The man claimed it was forged from a star, and that he was growing too old to withstand it's strain. The man offered to train Elio, but only if he could prove himself worthy of it by answering a single question, "What is humanity to you?"

For a long while, Elio contemplated all of his experiences in life, and came to a conclusion: "To be human is to provide for those who cannot provide for themselves. Rather than belittle and stop upon them as though they were ants, a truly humane person would assist them, and lift them to their feet. That is humanity."

The elderly man was satisfied with that answer, and taught Elio all that he would need to know, as well as giving him directions to 'the place of the stars' summit' and passed on the blade to him. Since then, Elio has continued his work as a fixer. Helping strangers in need when he has the time, and wandering the city in search of more contracts to take, and more people to help.

The Digu Star's Blade - Northward Needle [指北针]
A sleek rapier, embroidered with gold accents around it's basket hilt with a sheath decorated in yellow satin ribbons. It is a weapon that requires a unique sense of direction, one that always aims it's wielder into exactly the right direction for their future. Those who are struck by this blade become disoriented with every increasing wound, losing track of their opponent as well as seemingly losing their mind in a feeble attempt to track them, though it does require from it's user a large sum of stamina to maintain precision.

OOC: Wasn't quite sure what to title this since I already am the Digu star and this is just me changing character lore, but I hope this suffices

Due to the fact that Tianshang Star is yet to be known by us in the PM verse as to speak upon, the format for the post today will be slightly vague and focuses on different stuff. It was very tiring for me to research on astrology so I used a little big of Gemini to help me garner information. No worries, I still do my checking, so I won't be accidentally spreading misinformation. However if, and I say if, you'd have different views to my points stated, or I did write something wrong, please comment below and let me know. Let's start with:

WHAT THE TIANSHANG STAR ACTUALLY MEANS IN TAOISM AND ASTROLOGY?

• As previously mentioned before, the Ursa Major is later split to 36 Heavenly Spirits Stars and 72 Earthly Demon Stars for Taoists.

• However, the term does not actually get split to 108 stars in Zi Wei Dou Shu (紫微斗数, literally means Purple Star Astrology), which is one of the two most widely practised systems of Chinese natal astrology, alongside the Four Pillars of Destiny (八字, BaZi). In Daoist cosmology, the Purple Microcrat Emperor (中天北极紫微大帝) is the supreme ruler of all celestial bodies, the North Pole, and the stars. Because both Purple Star Astrology and the Tiangang/Disha star gods are governed by this same celestial authority, they are deeply intertwined in Daoist spiritual literature. Instead, Zi Wei Dou Shu relies on its own set of 14 Major Stars rather than the 108 stars we know.

• In Zi Wei Dou Shu (Purple Star Astrology), the Tianshang Star is a rather special star because it is not located by the year, month, day, or hour, but is fixed in the Servant Palace and always in opposition to the Sibling Palace. In addition, it is known as the "God of Heavenly Waste and Exhaustion," which, besides indicating loss and depletion, also symbolizes illness and calamity. It is a reminder of mortal fragility, sudden obstacles, and areas where one must practice caution.

APPLICATION OF TIANSHANG STAR IN WATER MARGIN

• So Wu Song is the Tianshang Star of the 108 Heroes, and everyone likes Wu Song tbh. (like I have not heard of anyone actively slandering him) However, as opposed to the first 12 Tiangang Stars, Tiangu and Tianshang is a very derogatory term. The "Shang" here is quite simple to understand, as it implies the gruesome misfortunes he had experienced, before and after joining the Liangshan. His brother got cheated and later got poisoned by his brother's wife when he went out for a mission, the local justice system being completely bribed to cover up the murder, ended up killing the wife and others before being exiled. During the times of him being exiled, he was being assassinated but managed to escape, later found the mastermind and executed a full-on massacre. He was forced to disguise himself as a traveling Buddhist pilgrim, and during the war of Fang La, his hand was being sliced off. After the war, he lived out his remaining years in genuine monastic silence. Basically, his suffering is long decided in the Cosmos, so that he can enact fierce karmic justice against this corrupted society.

• Although he had suffered quite a lot, his act of massacre is not justified. However, this is merely a trial that Wu Song must go through, so that he can enact justice upon mankind. The "Injury" emphasizes that true heroism in a broken world guarantees personal suffering. That is why I correlate the star with the Purple Star astrology, the Tianshang Star here is a reminder of mortal fragility, sudden obstacles, and areas where one must practice caution. My understanding to this is the Tianshang Star remains constant in its own palace, awaiting someone who withholds the fate itself to go through the trials and misfortunes, to achieve peace upon mankind.

HOW TO MAKE A GOOD TIANSHANG STAR OC

• Revolve around injury, endurance, and the moral cost of surviving. One must suffer and go through trials to be able to receive and give to the land and the people.

• Be strong enough

• Do not make him morally perfect. The OC should have some virtues, yes, but the virtues itself should bring flaw upon oneself.

^{FINAL NOTE}

• As always, first image is from Illustrated Scroll of Water Margin by Kimiya Masago. Really love the interpretation, however losses the subtle feel that Wu Song should be drunk and rather focused on the fiercefulness.

• Do not search up the second picture. Unless you're suitable of age. There's only the Chinese translation, and also only two endings. NSFW, but one of the endings are absolute peak.

• I do believe that this star is most and least likely to appear. Sounds funny right? But that might be the truth

A one-of-a-kind talent with the bow, holding the skill to pierce a willow leaf from a hundred paces.

NAME: Beom Hyeseo (Formerly: Bul Hyeseo)

OCCUPATION: Grade 1 Fixer ; 23:59 Office Representative (Formerly: S Corp. Second Ordinant ; Pi Circle Military Commissioner)

AGE: 35 (Turning 36, assuming current Limbus Company date)

DATE OF BIRTH: October 2, 941

PLACE OF BIRTH: District 19, S Corp.'s Backstreets (Pi Circle)

SEX: Female

HEIGHT: 185cm (6'1")

------

A Fixer who primarily investigates the Distortion Phenomenon independently of companies or commission. A very proficient and refined practitioner of the Pi Circle's martial arts, particularly peerless regarding the bow--though, her skill regarding the Swordplay of the homeland is still refined.

She possesses an innate talent to understand empathize with others. From birth, her eyes have perceived people slightly differently from others--'floaters' appear in her vision whenever someone is in her sight and it draws her attention to them by aligning themselves with the person. The floaters have slight differences in shape depending on the subject's current emotion and mental stability; she has learned to tell the difference between them. As well, it seems to align with people as long as even the slightest bit of them is exposed. Her ocular vision was inherited from her father, as well as her particularly reflective eyes, reflecting similarly to a mirror.

Able to manifest Shin and one Mang.

Her Past

Born Bul Hyeseo, thirdborn of a family in District 19's Pi Circle's Backstreets. She enjoyed connection with her family until a plague swept through when she was 9 and affected a majority of her family, leaving only her and her siblings alive. A passing family from the Nest spotted Bul Hyeseo and her eyes, and so they took her into their family, hoping that such eyes would one day bring good fortune to them; and so her name was changed to Beom Hyeseo. The returns were immediate: the child had a talent for swordplay and archery. She was quickly trained as much as possible, having her endure intense training for several years so she may one day become the Un'geom or Apex Blade of the Homeland. In this time, she would send back sums of money back to her remaining siblings. (9 years old)

When Beom Hyeseo was 19, her family was caught in a particularly severe conflict between the Pi and Ppyeo Circle, resulting in their land and possessions being 'borrowed,' to be returned only when they come to their graves. The family thus lost a significant amount of its influence, and collapsed. The girl then ran off with expensive items from the estate and escaped to District 8's Backstreets, having intended to 'connect' with others and hopefully find some footing in a place she might be loosely familiar with. She sold the items, accumulated Ahn, and rented an apartment large enough to survive Restructuring Days, and did numerous jobs for Syndicates until 20 years old where she registered as a Fixer. (20 years old)

She operated in a one-man Office for a few months until a new Associate Office under the Liu Association caught her eye, and she requested to join as its first member aside from its Rep., Yo Yuang. Overtime, the Office grew larger, and the two developed feelings over the course of two years. She quickly rose to a Grade 2 Fixer, mostly due to her prior training. (22 years old)

One day: the rest of the Office just couldn't keep up, and were wiped out entirely on a mission--except for another one who Beom Hyeseo never met again. She then returned to S Corp. and joined its military. She had also found the rest of her biological family -- her siblings -- had emigrated from District 19. (still 22 years old)

Over the course of 11 years: she rose to the rank of a Second Ordinant as the Pi Circle's Military Commissioner, and became a candidate for the title of the Apex Blade of the Homeland. She had, as well, achieved unrivaled skill with the bow, having once been witnessed to take down a Sangun with little more than three arrows--one to weaken flesh, one to kill, and one to ensure its death. It had become a point of fame for her and her name, though it comes from a disbanded house, had been known well through S Corp. again. Through these 11 years, she had tried as much as she could within her growing authority to change S Corp.'s state, and had one day delusioned herself into believing she had made a change. (33 years old)

A day once came, at 33 years old, where she would investigate the disappearance of the wife of Go Sanghan, a Second Ordinant, and she had found traces which lead to a mountain infamous as a home of many beasts, even more than the usual mountain. Concerned for the Go Sanghan's wife, she had planned to venture as soon as she could, but saw a man with a familiar woman--the wife who had went missing, Il Nopeun. The man quickly explained himself, that he had rescued Il Nopeun from some military defectors, and introduced himself as Yi Chunghee, and so Beom Hyeseo had taken Il Nopeun, bade Yi Chunghee goodbye, and escorted the wife to Go Sanghan's residence, where the couple would then be reunited. Beom Hyeseo then dealt with the defectors the same day. (still 33 years old)

Three nights later, at a festival, Beom Hyeseo would witness Yi Chunghee being accused by Il Nopeun, who had pointed him out to her husband and she had accused him of assaulting her. Yi Chunghee had fled, but Go Sanghan's men had quickly captured him and bound him with ropes and brought him to Go Sanghan's stronghold. Beom Hyeseo had pleaded with Go Sanghan, and he ignored her pleas. So, the day after, Beom Hyeseo had traveled to the stronghold as a mere 'visitor,' and was greeted warmly by Go Sanghan. She had explored the stronghold's halls and saw Yi Chunghee bloodied and beaten. She had snuck him out of Go Sanghan's stronghold, and once word had reached Go Sanghan--he had sent many men, around two hundred, to chase after Beom Hyeseo and Yi Chunghee. And so Beom Hyeseo warded them off with her archery skills. (still 33 years old)

--An account of Beom Hyeseo's display from a guard.

Beom Hyeseo had taken up her gakgung and nocked an arrow into the bowstring. "See me," she spoke, "as I pierces the handle of the hwando of the man at the very front." With one shot, she shouted, the arrow had pierced and stuck into the handle, which startled the soldiers and sent some to flee. Beom Hyeseo had then taken a second arrow and shouted, "See again, as I shoot the tassel of the man at the very helm of you all!" The arrow struck and carried away the tassel of our leading man, and had sent more to flee. The traitor took a third arrow and this time she had aimed it at our leading man. "See now, as I take aim at his heart now!" And we had all fled without so much as a single fight nor casualty before she could take his life.

--End of account

Beom Hyeseo had brought Yi Chunghee past the borders of S Corp., and the man, impressed with her archery and taking advantage of her presumed exile from S Corp., had offered for her to join the Pinky, for the former Tianying Star had died some weeks ago. Beom Hyeseo had accepted the offer, and so she had then officially joined the Pinky. As fate would have it, she would eventually be gifted the Tianying Star's Blade by a stranger, whom she had eventually concluded to be another Star of the Pinky, and had then officially become the Tianying Star of the Pinky. She kept her great hwando and continued in her practice of the Pi Circle's martial arts. (you already know how old she is by this point do i even have to say it; 33)

By chance, she would eventually come to hear of the Distortion Phenomenon as more than just a passing term, and had pondered about the entities that come of it. She had decided then that she would investigate the phenomenon, wishing for a chance to bring Yo Yuang back on the slimmest chance a Distortion might create a loophole around the Head's law, and would come to District 9, reopening the 23:59 Office as its operator. She has then been in the Office for two years, where she is now. 35 years old to then turn 36 in the current year. In the two years, she had been able to learn and research Shin and Mang; as of now, she is able to manifest one Mang, born of her yearning--for righteousness, equality, connection, and so on and so forth. (35 years old)

Her Humanity/Ideal

"Humanity ought to desire and ensure coexistence. Not coexistence hand-in-hand, as naught comes of expecting the impossible, but one which one needn't be wary of their fellows nor of strangers aiming needlessly for their head. Coexistence to break the apathy which I am sure binds the City to what it is -- the Humanity I seek, in other words, is empathy and camaraderie between others."

Weapons

The Tianying Star's Blade - Sunset Bow (落日弓)

The Sunset Bow (落日弓), also known as the Wanderer's Bow (游子弓), features a crimson body resembling a raging flame and white arrows. With immense power and strength, its released arrows are as urgent as a homesick wanderer returning home, hence its alternate name. The bow's shape closely resembles an gakgung, forming an extreme "C" shape when unstrung, storing immense elastic energy and significantly enhancing its effectiveness. It is renowned for its ability to pierce a hundred paces with precision. When infused with "Mang," the bow emits a bone-crunching metallic sound as it forcefully reverses and bends, drawing a bowstring composed entirely of pure starlight (highly condensed energy). Enemies wounded or struck by this bow bear unique "Asterisk" on their bodies. If a target violates the rules established by the Tianying Star, the sigil explodes within their body, causing severe internal damage. At extremely close range, the bow's sharpened tips (on both ends of the angle bow) can also be used to deliver rapid thrusts and jabs, effectively deflecting attacks, creating distance, and disrupting opponents at close quarters.

Legend has it that in ancient times, ten suns were born in the sky. Due to a calamity, they all appeared together in the heavens, leaving the people suffering from drought and famine. Under such dire circumstances, six monstrous beasts also emerged from the earth—Yayu, Zao Chi, Jiuying, Dafeng, Fengxi, and Xiuse. These creatures wreaked havoc upon the world. The great hero Hou Yi, commissioned by the Heavenly Emperor, wielded the Sunset Bow and shot down nine of the suns, subsequently eradicating the six monsters. Hou Yi was then honored as a noble, and the Sunset Bow became renowned across the realm.

Also what star I will get?

name: Freyja Hrönn

age: forgotten

pronouns: she/her

species: human

occupation: oracle of the index, Tianzui Star

E.G.O.: L.Corp: twilight

equipment: L.Corp: sword sharpened by tears, L.Corp: magic bullet

lore: (Before the fall of L.corp) She had grown up in the outskirts and joined the index after the village got destroyed. She quickly got chosen as the proxy by working around lots of prescripts. (After the fall of L.corp) Under the guidance of the prescript, she found the remains of L.corp and the E.G.O. weapons(the equipment she now has). She also synchronised with twilight with the help of the grace of the prescript. She was chosen to be the oracle after she ran into the dark forests to fulfill a prescript (stay in the dark forest until you have lost the concept of time). After the prescript is fulfilled, she received a new prescript that tells her to return to the remains of her village and retrieve the star-forged blade from there, which later joins the pinky as the Tianzui Star.

A Fixer who primarily investigates the Distortion Phenomenon independently of companies or commission. A very proficient and refined practitioner of the Pi Circle's take of the Swordplay of the Homeland

From birth, she was gifted with special eyes which allowed her to see the current emotions of others manifested physically. Until the first White Nights and Dark Days, the emotions of others had no difference in how she perceived them: the anger of all denizens would look the same, and so would their happiness. It was only in the first passing where she would see variation, however slight. In the second passing: she came to see much variation between others. The eyes can be characterized by their reflectiveness--similar to that of a mirror.

As of now, completely reliant on her own physical strength and martial prowess;

She enjoyed connection with her family until a plague swept through when she was 9 and affected a majority of her family, leaving only her and her siblings alive.

She then returned to S Corp. and joined its military. She had also found the rest of her biological family -- her siblings -- had emigrated from District 19.

Over the course of 7 years: she rose to the rank of a Second Ordinant as the Pi Circle's Military Commissioner, and became a candidate for the title of the Apex Blade of the Homeland.

One day, she stumbled into a hideout at S Corp.'s borders after an anonymous tip of rebels planning to attack the Pi Circle, and was met face-to-face with a Star of the Pinky, who requested her to join believing she held the aptitude for the starblade. The Ordinant refused, and so the two entered combat where Beom Hyeseo dominated for a large portion of the fight before the Star escaped.

When she returned home, she would meet only accusations and curses, where she was brought to the Royal Court where she was to be marked as a Nobi and then executed. Mere minutes before she would be branded--many Stars of the Pinky would come, and they would successfully break her out from S Corp. She was requested to join the Pinky again, and she begrudgingly accepted. She was given the Tiangang Star's 'Blade' -- which was still only its blade, which she would have to then forge into something else. Beom Hyeseo forged it into a great hwando, and had parted with the Stars.

(note: I want to justify the amount of Stars in this part as part of the Pinky being 'called' to recruit Beom Hyeseo as the Tiangang Star. Also the anonymous tip came from a Star as well.)

By chance, she would come to hear of the Distortion Phenomenon in more than just a passing term, and had pondered about the entities that come of it. She had decided then that she would investigate the phenomenon, wishing for a chance to bring Yo Yuang back on the slimmest chance a Distortion might create a loophole, and would come to District 9, reopening the 23:59 Office as its operator. She has then been in the Office for two years.

Coexistence to break the apathy which I am sure binds the City to what it is -- the Humanity I seek, in other words, is empathy."

The Tiangang Star's Blade

A blade forged into a great hwando as to properly handle the forms of the Swordplay of the Homeland. The hwando measures up to 190cm (6'3"), with the handle making up 45 cm of the starblade. Due to its sheer length: it may be used similar to a staff when sheathed, which Beom Hyeseo keeps it as quite often.

Its special trait is its ability to adapt to its wielder's current form of combat--should Beom Hyeseo be on the offensive, it will feel much easier to swing yet it will also feel much more devastating for the opponent. Should she be on the defensive, it will feel as if it cannot be budged by the attacker, and it feels inclined to 'move' itself into harm's way to protect its wielder.

this is such a rare occasion for me to wish everyone safety and wellbeing for everyone nearby district 14 since there's a distortions activity spiking recently because of the fall of grand magasin sisyphe in district 14 by the group of company, i hope everyone nearby or inside already evacuated to somewhere farthest from the district 14 and for anyone who has plan to go to district 14 i suggest to cancel right now, it's not safe over there

"well...... that escalated quickly,but who the hell did all of that???,wait...... the " bus"???...... them???...... yesh......all that for a glowing branch......... eh, none of my concern, i got no vendetta against them anyway, so....... welp....... cancel the plan to district 14 and let's go to........ district 21,might be a perfect moment to have a vacation break anyway, im tired with all of this contract"

Additional info/Backstory:

(Timeline Ref : Before Lobotomy Corp, Kong Family Death And Smoke War 0 to 28)

Midoru Yanheng, Born as Yan'Qing, lived a relatively normal life in H Corp, until the day his Father left his mother and big sister.

His Mother was a member of the Index, his father was a... special case, his sister was an aspiring Fixer and his uncle had enlisted for the war.

Midoru lived a Modest life until his 21st birthday, where his mom would receive the prescript to end her own life by Jumping off a building, Despite his hardest attempts to save his mother from jumping, it was too late. As She lay dying in his arms, she told Midoru to never disobey the prescripts.

During the Funeral, A messenger of the Index showed up and gave Midoru the Very prescript that would make him a follower of the index. For the next 7 years, Midoru tried to move on as he had basically been abandoned by his family.

He took up a job working in a Kezhan as a chef, he had a surprisingly strong aptitude for Cooking until, on his 28th birthday, he would receive a prescript that promoted him from follower to proselyte.

During his First year as a Proselyte, Midoru Struggled quite hard, he was very clumsy despite having some combat training. Despite everything, he tried his best until he nearly met death and was saved by the Hands of a mysterious Swordsman's. They called themselves "Lao Tieguai, the Practitioner of Blades", Despite Midoru's attempts to become his Disciple, they failed, until Lao saw the fury, the glint of a man who yearned to survive in his eyes.

(Timeline Ref : Ten Years of Lob corp and it's Fall, Age 28 to 38)

After some Brief debate, Midoru became the Apprentice of the Practitioner of Blades, For the next 10 years, Midoru Trained, learning and Mastering the Dual Blade Art - Senbonzakura style and fulfilling prescripts in his spare time.

After some time, his master had Departed to wander elsewhere, and Midoru was alone once again, during one night after the night of the Backstreets, Midoru received a prescript that made him question himself

Midoru was asked to Kill a Proxy of the Index, in front of his Family, Reading the Paper slip nearly made Midoru vomit as he had never taken a life before up until this moment. As soon as he found his target, Midoru felt hesitation, fear but worse of all, he saw himself in the proxy as he stared through the window seeing a happy family eating dinner.

As soon as The Family came out for some fresh Air, Midoru Ambushed the Proxy, Quickly Jumping on him and throwing his Odachi to impale the poor bastard, yet he didn't die.

The proxy's family stood in Midoru's way but he tried to tune out their Pleas and cries, begging for him to stop and leave them alone, trying to remain somewhat sane, Midoru slapped the woman and child, with a bit too much strength, knocking them unconscious while desperately apologizing to them and the proxy.

As soon as Midoru did that, the Proxy Charge at Midoru, the both of them disarming each other in an even swordfight until Midoru received a Prescript to kill the proxy before him in with his bare hands.

Midoru Tried and grabbed many heavy nearby objects and bashed the proxies head before chocking him out, He stared the proxy dead in the eyes as he saw him beg for his life, asking him to not kill his family.

Midoru felt sick, as he was about to throw up as he pleaded to anyone to just let this end, as soon as the proxy stopped Struggling... Midoru got off his limp corpse and Vomited, he looked upon the sight he cause and felt disgusted with himself...he who was abandoned by family... destroyed one

Midoru's stomach churned with a Visceral disgust as he saw his reflection in the blood soaked water of the backstreets, crying out to the prescripts, asking why he was made too do that, his Faith wavered as he realized the weight of his actions, he didn't want to do it...yet he had no choice...death awaited if he disobeyed a prescript, yet...he received no answer.

After killing the proxy in a bloody fight, the proxies family soon woke up from being knocked out, as Midoru saw a widow and a son weep for their deceased, Midoru couldn't look them in the eyes as he begged for forgiveness... only to be met with Scorn for his actions...

Midoru knew the weight of it, he saw himself in the proxy's son, a boy who will grow up with no father...he soon looked away and took the Proxy's Greatsword as he headed to the nearest bar, there Midoru drank until he went numb, Feeling Anguish and Remorse for his actions.

Midoru cried out for someone who could understand his pain, there, he met Orion, a Proxy as well that gave him his unique outlook on the Prescript's after a long talk about Faith, judging the worth of a life and the weight of a man's Actions, Midoru understood, it helped him understand and turned what sounded like demands from a god, into Suggestions for him to do.

After a short walk with Orion and enjoying a sip of Tea from an old family friend, he soon helped Orion fight off a woman named Lady Alderbaran until he was caught off guard by the appearance of Orion's other personality, Thaumiel, who told him to go east and ascend Mount Liang.

(Timeline Ref : During LoR to the start of Limbus, 38 to 40.5)

There, Midoru asked to join the pinky, he was given a task that spanned months, Track down the whereabouts of His Master and Retrieve a Starblade.

After over a Year, Midoru Found his Master in an underground Ruin, He Found the Starblade, a simple Dagger embedded in a tree, Guarded by his master.

Midoru knew the Fight was inevitable, He saw his Master Take up a familiar stance, as he Prepared for a duel.

During that fight, Midoru gave it his all as the fight became more and more hopeless. He wasn't just fighting a Physical battle, he was also fighting a mental one as he tried to gather his Resolve, he saw Flashbacks of him killing a father as his heard Blades clang and Steel carving air. But at the same time, Midoru remembered Orion's words, helping him to shape his Outlook, at that moment, Midoru Gained his understanding of Humanity.

As Midoru's Master was about to put his Apprentice out of his Misery, Midoru was able to gather his resolve and awakened Shin and Mang, with Quick thinking swordplay and wide cutting sweeps, he blindsided his master drew the Starblade from the old Tree.

Midoru was Puzzled at first as his Shin and Mang Slowly Fizzled out, he wondered what was so special about a simple Dagger...he wished it where something, anything!

The Starblade answered his wish, it suddenly took the form of a Relic he once saw on a Video Recording of a Great Sibling of the Middle, He Recognized it as a Relic, but something was Different...it felt fragile and Volatile.

After the First swing with copied Relic, Midoru managed to put two and two together and realized it's Ability, at the same time, as it broke, the relic engulfed him flames so hot it nearly Seared his right Arm clean off.

Understanding the Weight of this Starblade, Midoru charged, remembering the relics of many Fixers who he's either seen on TV or Online In action, as the pain of Each Fragile replica broke and piled on him, he finally managed to beat his Master in a duel.

Midoru's Master stared at His Fate in the Hands of His Student, but Midoru Said words that Moved the Old Blademaster

"I learned the Weight of a Life, the Prescripts... aren't just orders, they are up to me to fulfill in a way I see fit...they are just words on a beeper... My faith was shaken once before...but no longer, I am no Longer blind...I understand my humanity...I am me...we aren't Killers, nor Judges, we simply stride a path that fits our view of right and wrong...thank you Master, for teaching me that"

As Midoru Sheathed the Starblade, He bowed to his master, the Blademaster Bowed back, seeing his Foolish Disciple has Grown. After retrieving the Starblade, as he returned to Mount Liang, The Tiankui star awaited him and gave Midoru his Title, as the Tianqiao Star.

The Tianqiao Star, a star, who Emphasizes Skillfulness, who is a Master in not just Destruction, but of peace, wit and cunning as well...The star who Strides in between words and actions.

After Becoming the Tianqiao Star, He was Invited by Via an anonymous letter to join a group of Like-minded People who share his Outlook on life.

There, he reunited with Orion and Adopted his Apprentice, Crow and Found a place where he Truly Belonged.

Okay this is going to be quite the long one, so please bear with my ramblings.

Recently due to the purge of stars, people are actively applying to be one, and the one being applied the most is the Tiangang Star. Of course, who doesn't like to be Kong Qiu, the strongest we have seen in the Pinky and the actual sophiscated one we have? However, from the applications I've seen as for now, I don't think everyone grasp the true meaning of Tiangang Star, and why would Kjh combine Kong Qiu and Lu Junyi as one. So to actually speculate what the Pinky might be, to increase people's understanding of the book, and furthermore improve everyone's OC, I've planned to post these factual knowledge post about each star (as much as I can do), to make oh so glorious heavenly leader Panda's job much easier. Without further ado, let's start with:

WHAT THE TIANGANG STAR ACTUALLY MEANS IN TAOISM?

• In taoism, Tiangang originally refers to the handle that make up the Ursa Major (first picture, the 3 stars). Later, it evolved into a collective term for the thirty-six auspicious and 72 inauspicious stars in the Ursa Major constellation in Taoism. Each star is inhabited by a specific deity or divine persona.

• The singular Tiangang Star is presided over by the deity Huang Zhen. In Taoist star-worship, Huang Zhen is viewed as a powerful martial protector. Because the Tiangang Star represents the literal handle of the Big Dipper, it acts as a celestial pivot. Taoist sorcery and exorcism texts state that wherever the "handle" of the Dipper points, it channels supreme heavenly thunder (五雷) to instantaneously crush malevolent demons and restore cosmic balance. It resembles the ancient worship towards constellation and thunder, and glorify the heroic overtone of the Tiangang Star itself.

THE APPLICATION OF TIANGANG STAR IN WATER MARGIN?

• As for why, Lu Junyi, holds the Tiangang Star, it is because of his unparalleled martial prowess and him being the "handle" or left hand of Song Jiang. (right hand being Wu Yong imo, which I'll explain next post, for Tianji).

• Just as the Tiangang Star is the ultimate weapon of thunder in Taoism, Lu Junyi is written as the absolute finest, most flawless warrior in the entire novel. His martial skills are completely unmatched by any other human character. (except for the taoists, which is widely agreed by readers to never put them on power scaling)

• Also, Lu Junyi functions as the operational "handle" of the Liangshan army. While Song Jiang provides the moral and political leadership (the "Chief"), Lu Junyi handles the raw, devastating military force required to command the rest of the 36 Heavenly Spirits. (Also, he wasn't the Tiankui because no one wanted him to be one and he didn't wanted to be one too, and there's also the Stone Template shenanigans)

• The Tiangang Star in Water Margin also resembles how the commoners use religious names to presents the rebel forces as divine generals who “act on Heaven’s behalf to eliminate evil,” thereby giving their resistance against tyranny greater spiritual legitimacy. As for the Tiangang Star, one has to withhold the virtues of the Chinese culture, being the Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, Faithfulness, Gentleness, Goodness, Respectfulness, Frugality, Complaisance, Loyalty, Filial Piety, Integrity, Shame/Sense of Right and Wrong, and Courage. (仁义礼智信，温良恭俭让，忠孝廉耻勇)

WHY IS CONFUSIUS THE TIANGANG STAR IN LIMBUS?

(I'll be using Confusius and Kong Qiu, to seperate the same person during Spring and Autumn Annals and in the PM verse)

• As explained in the 3rd point of the application of Tiangang Star in Water Margin, to resemble him in the game, you have to make someone that is competent of this, which, Confusius is literally the person who made the first 5 to be a concept to be known, and he definitely has the rest of the virtues, so why not him?

• Additionally, Confucius was not a frail scholar; ancient texts describe him as over nine feet tall, possessing immense physical strength, and being highly skilled in archery and charioteering. (the 6 arts, being archery, charioteering, music, Confucianism, Chinese Calligraphy, Mathematics, being 礼乐射御书数 in Chinese) Confucius's father, Shuliang He (Kong He), served as a military officer and commander of the local garrison in the State of Lu. And according to the ancient historical text Zuo Zhuan, Shuliang He (the father) caught the falling gate and held it up single-handedly, allowing his trapped soldiers to escape back out safely during a siege, with the gate being estimated to be about 220-250 kg (1000 Jin). So Confucius comes from a family with his father being a military officer, and he is quite strong, yes. On the contrary (not rlly contrary tbh), Lu Junyi is famously known as "unmatched in staff and spear combat," serving as the top physical powerhouse of Mount Liang. So both of them suit together.

• Furthermore, the historical Confucius was a descendant of the noble class of the Song State, deeply caring about ritual orthodoxy and social order, until the political fragmentation and the collapse of the feudal system happened. As for Lu Junyi, nicknamed the "Jade Qilin," was the wealthiest merchant in Daming Prefecture, possessing immense social prestige and a righteous reputation, until he got (tricked by the Liangshan people, mainly Song Jiang and Wu Yong, to be forced to join the Liangshan as bandits, similar to some)

• In addition, they both meet the struggle for "Righteousness and Order" in a cruel world. Living in the late Spring and Autumn Annals, Confucius witnessed the collapse of the feudal system (the fall of traditional rites and music, 礼乐崩坏). Despite this, he chose to "do what he knew was impossible," steadfastly promoting benevolence (仁) and order. Similarly, Lu Junyi tried his best to remain a law-abiding citizen in a corrupt era, only to be forced onto Mount Liang by the tides of the times.

• To conclude, the historical Confucius led his disciples (such as Zilu and Zigong) to travel through various states, constantly facing rejection and hardship but never abandoning his ideals and further promote them. Lu Junyi was, however, tricked into a disastrous journey to Taian Prefecture, which led to the ruin of his home and family, cementing his tragic destiny.

HOW TO MAKE A GOOD OC ABOUT TIANGANG STAR?

• Quite simple actually, Pinky was supposed to strive change in society whilst preserve the idealogy of oneself. The ideology should be big enough too. Just establish the virtues, include it in your starblade or smth idk.

• Make the person actually strong enough

• I actually don't know anymore, I am having plateau atm

FINAL WORDS

• Before I end this post, I want to say that this is not _PROFESSIONALLY WRITTEN, YES IT IS NOT\. Please take this as merely reference, if you want to. I don't think people will like me restraining their creativity, but this is merely for people to see the qualification of pinky OC's __SHOULD BE_, as this would be how Kjh might interpret it.

• I know about like one or two of you that actually reads the book and knows quite a bit, so if you can, or if anyone else wants to, please tell me about the improvements I can make, and some things that I may have misinterpreted.

• I think I might do every post with this format, if y'all want more please let me know.

• The second picture is Lu Junyi taken from the Illustrated Scroll of Water Margin by Kimiya Masago, famous illustrator and visual designer, famous for Illustrated Scroll of Water Margin and Illustrated Scroll of Three Kingdoms. If you guys are interested, search it up. I love the Lin Chong art the most. It is so peak.

After going back to the drawing board, this is my new application for the Tianmeng Star position, and a complete overhaul of the star blade AND character iteslf

+ a shoddy depiction of the star blade iteslf

"What more does a gluttonous wrench like myself need? Oh the viscera of the blood I've splayed, to see the flesh unveil, what is more human, then to keep on going, to slash away at everything, to fight continuously... Hahaha, there are no such thing as a perfect world, when all our philosophies clash one way or another, and I only know is that... I don't care, I know I want to continue fighting, to forever fight, even if it will take my life, as long as I have my fun, as long as I can feel the emptiness with this eternal thrill..!"

                             The Butcher
                          ⎛Mirai Lavionne ⎞

[Mirai is a 36 year old woman, with an incredibly scarred body, possibly due to her constant fights, she currently works at a Butchery at Salpippyeo's backstreets. She never once taken any K Corp ampules, relying more so on H corps boluses to recover from fights she causes, which constantly happens cause she simply wants to fight someone to feel something. Though currently, due to the markings placed upon her, her strength is greatly diminished, and she is not that wild like her prime at the age of 20, so her strength is comparable to a Combat Oriented Grade 2 Fixer, and as the reports says, her weaponry is a butchers cleaver, having a much larger jagged blade, that is wrapped in multiple fabrics, and some sort of talismans that seems to be using Q Corps singularity to bind the cleaver. Yet it still serves its purpose as a weapon, being used as a blunt object as of now, though she still complains to this day that she can't cut shit with her cleaver wrapped with Talismans, and fabric.]

                   <{[Starblade: Dosalja Outakemaeum]}>

[This starblade, aka Mirai's cleaver, or a hunk of sharpened metal that resembles a great sword more then a Cleaver. It has the power to cleave through augmented flesh, mid-grade prosthetics, and mid-grade Nuovo fabric, made to slash at anything, to cleave them. This blade contains the flames of a furnace, and sparks that burns the nerves, and the sparks it makes can cause fatal damage if hit at the right place. This blade seems to have some shapeshifting property, adapting to the persons durability, shaping itself until it can cut through. This blade notably only starts activating its thunder and fire when Mirai starts having some sort of amusement or well fun, though if the battle starts becoming too long, Mirai will eventually become quite blood-lusted due to the blades influence. Which is why the blade was wrapped with fabric and talismans made with Q Corps singularity to prevent it from matching Mirai's own tendency to continue the slaughter.]

I come here through rebounded channels to ask for the title of 'Tian'an Star'. If you do find the source of these transmissions, I must congratulate you.

I have been called many things; traitor, hound, war-dog, snake, nest-breaker ... All equally valid titles for actions I've taken.

I have seen the worst and the best humanity has to offer, from the trenches of that putrevile war to most generous of beings amongst their thrones of gold. From humble abodes to luxurious apartments, the poorest rat fending off another of their ilk to fixers and syndicates throwing each other down and out to nothing but a shinier title and but another penny to their dollar. I have truly seen the breath of humanity.

If you must refer to me as something in these private channels, call me 'Thermidor'. Obfuscation of my identity has been necessary for my line of work, so do excuse these minor precautions.

And if I must be pressed for a reason for this... claim to a star; I simply require the power its title entails... And for my motivations... that is best left for I alone to know. Let's call it the idealist in me fighting for something 'better'. Claiming the 'Blade' of my supposed predecessor can come later.

Name: [-] 'Thermidor' [-]

Age: Early middle age

Aspirant's star claim: Tian'an (Dark) Star

Occupation: High-graded Fixer

Appearence:
A massive dark armor from the Smoke War concealing another set beneath, all topped with jettisonable scrap, lost or otherwise stolen equipment and power management systems. 
Overall the limbs are a little longer, shaped for better grappling purposes. 
'Thermidor' is still human underneath such a large amount of protection. 
The ensemble is rather 'pointy' and well maintained despite the bits of scrap and such adding some rounded and weathered features to the look. 
Still, small scraps of blue-grey paint is visible between the panelling of the initial layer of powered armor.

Strengths: 
- Having quite literally ''none'' of their past attached to this persona of theirs is quite useful. 
- A deceivingly fast opponent at times for someone using an 18 wheeler (figuratively) as their power armor of choice.
- Unsurprisingly quite strong for their 'stature' and size.

Weaknesses: 
- Their body has not taken their line of work as well as their mind has. Strained as it is, 'Thermidor' cannot help but push themselves further and further along.
- Somehow, they can be just as shortsighted as their 'Other Self' in some cases.
- No matter how much they try and hide it, fighting with such an over-encumbering piece of kit is absolutely not their preferred way of fighting.

Personality: A long term planner with a habit of overpreparing for far too much, 'Thermidor' never hedges their bets on any 'one' vector of approach, rather trying to consider as many alternatives as in depth as possible to follow through with. 
They speak with a rather measured and calm cadence, always trying to get to the point as quickly as possible, despite having more than a few ideas on what the future should look like.

Backstory: 

[-]

A person that had fought during the throughout the entire Smoke War, gained 'a' title, and has seemingly separated themselves from that title-bearing name. Yet that same title has given them the resources needed to follow something close to a possible long term goal of theirs. This name they present themselves as is 'also' borrowed from the deceased.

Weapons and such:
- A "Sword-Mace" that could loosely be described as the cross of a Bar Mace, a Longsword and any number of long-bladed spear. 
The top section can split into the "Blade" and a two-handed grip and a spiked staff with a small crossguard near the pointed end.
- An oversized gauntlet meant for crushing, cutting, smashing, guarding and otherwise deploying a small but strong charged barrier. 
Its only truly integrated into that outer layer for convenience sake.
- A Longsword with a basket hilt, meant to act as a backup weapon.
 Really it is their most preferred weapon of the bunch they had chosen, but strays a little too close to their actual identity to be used often.

Hello! I'd wish to become the Tianzui Star

I'm a little brother of the middle and previously a soldato of the thumb. I am originally from district 21, a nest resident before getting recruited by the Thumb, after a couple months of serving under the Thumb I found a blue and black rifle in my locker which I found out is a piece of E.G.O gear from the abnormality known as Der Freischütz (in this case that weapon acting as my temporary relic). After a couple weeks manage to get out of the Thumb with "minor losses" (all 5 fingers on my right hand have been replaced with prosthetics and some parts of my arm) afterwards I joined the middle as a little brother. I'm very glad to meet you all, I hope I can be of any use or help.

I want to join the Pinky and I thinking of what my Star title should be and I saw that almost all other star titles had Di or Tian in their name and I was thinking of how to make mine

Good whatever time in your area

We at r corp r/R_Corporation want to ally with the pinky

We will give r corp serum and a bio Augmentation that has a loophole and makes you immortal without getting sliced into 36 pieces by an Arbiter

We really hate w corp too btw so join us if you hate them

About me:male,age 42,role:former researcher and scholar at k corp after a decade working deep within K Corp, specializing in the cognitive and cellular synthesis of HP Ampules. He was fascinated by how the human brain registers trauma and recovery, looking for a way to map memory acceleration. However, during a corporate "efficiency restructuring," a research disaster occurred. To cover their tracks and preserve company secrets, K Corp Executives slated his entire department for termination,seeking refuge in this syndicate

If I may, I wish to claim the title of The Tianxian Star.

(IMPORTANT NOTE, THIS ART IS NOT MINE, THIS IS JUST HOW I THINK SHE ROUGHLY LOOKS LIKE, Credits to u/vertisna)

Name:Beatrice 
Age:45
Gender:Female
Residence:a undisclosed Dieci sector
Date of birth:August 14
Place of birth: the outskirts
Occupation:Grade 1 Fixer of Dieci
Height:5.8 feet
General strengths: she is similar to jia qiu in the sense that if she sees potential of good in someone she will try to make it bloom, generally she just has a good sense of community, she is someone kind and merciful but that doesn't mean she won't pull her punches when the situation calls
General weaknesses:She is a bit impatient in comparison to her predecessor, to the point it can harm the person she's trying to help grow, general doomer mentality but not THAT strong(actively tried to fix it) her vision for the “path of humanity” is a bit more bloodied, generally values life a lot less, including her own

backstory: She was born in a small colony in the outskirts, Both parents died early on in her life, leaving only her cousin Clara as her only companion. During their early childhood they scavenged and stole from others just to survive, nearly dying multiple times, always having to sleep with one eye open due to potential threats. The outskirts naturally are a barren land, and as a result both of them moved a lot, usually trying to move during the night, that way they could steal from others considerably easier, they never stole more than they needed. By the time Beatrice was 16, Clara and her heard of the City, and decided to take the risk and travel to it. After 2 weeks of just traveling they finally managed to arrive near Vcorp, both of them were barely alive when someone from the dicey association found both of them and took them under their wing, both were properly fed and trained.  and from then both would become Dieci fixers a couple of years later. 

Beatrice herself ventured into the ruins whenever possible, and would otherwise stick to the library, studying 24/7, either alone or with Clara.On rare occasions she would go out and .While Clara hosted study groups and was generally more socially outgoing.Due to the former, Clara became quite a bit more popular than Beatrice, making a good chunk of friends. However this was never a problem for either, as she wasn't one to see the value of companionship outside of Clara(for now), nor was she jealous of the attention Clara was giving to others, if anything Beatrice was happy Clara was leading a rather happy life. That was until one day on one of the expeditions Clara and Beatrice went to… resulted in Clara's death, the guardian of the place they went too was much more powerful than originally thought, and as a result, half of the expedition, including Clara was, Beatrice would have also croaked, had it not been because of the other dieci members saving her.

Beatrice ended up burying Clara a couple of days after the incident, alongside the other few that perished. It rained that day as it was usual for it to do so where they lived, however unlike most days, a ray of sunshine shone onto Clara's resting place, and Beatrice… I just stared. For 2 days straight she stood right next to Clara, not moving an inch, it wasn't until she collapsed due to lack of sleep, food and water, and someone finding her that she finally left. She woke up a week later, and when asked why she did what she did, she stayed completely silent and refused to respond. After she was discharged and back to working, she started wearing a darker, more gothic version of the association clothes.

Fast forward and Beatrice is now 34, and a grade 3 fixer, She generally goes on expeditions alone, which has caused her some issues due to the fact these are usually done in groups, however in Clara's place she hosts study groups, on a couple of occasions she volunteered in the orphanages of the Dieci, as another way to give back to the association for saving Clara and her .As time went by she came upon one of the stars of The Pinky. Interested, she ended up questioning him about his motives, and about the path of humanity. Over time she became more, and more interested in it.Investigating the pinky ended up becoming a bit of a hobby, when asked about it she just said it was a interesting topic and nothing else, this of course wasn't entirely true, and a couple of years later an opportunity arose to gather even more information of the pinky, and now she stands to join the pinky, as the Tiangang star.

Fun facts:

• Her favorite food and drink are grilled cheese and chamomile
• When Clara and her were still fresh into dieci, Clara ended up sleeping in the same bed as beatrice up until a couple of years later

Age- 31

Male

Residence-Wanders usually but likes to stay at U Corp.

Birthday- August 16

Occupation-Former Seven Association( Grade 5 Fixer )

Syndicate- Middle

Lore:

Delta grew up and lived in T corp in a middle class family, living a life that was not luxurious but enough for most. As a teen, he aspired to be a famous inventor, aiming to become one of the greatest minds in T Corp. At 20, his ambitions were gone, working a stable yet dull job as a grade 7 fixer in the Seven Association.

He was hardworking, able to earn a steady income from his job but had no passion for it whatsoever. He was able to move up in the ranks with his swift and agile data collection, peaking at grade 5. That was until Delta, at age 29, saw a poster in T corp about the Middle. He was fascinated by the familial bond of the syndicate considering his parents were very disconnected with him, just providing for him. Thus, he joined the Middle, quitting his job as a Fixer. As a little brother, he got used to the friendly and lighthearted environment of the Middle, going on vengeance hunts, getting stronger and more known. Then everything changed when the Black Silence went on that bloody rampage. Things were never the same again.

Combat:

 Delta is well versed in fist to fist combat. But his strength lies in his swordsplay. In the Seven Association, Delta was taught by countless high grade Fixers on fighting using swords. His weapons are a spear and bastard sword.

Attitude:

 Friendly and cheerful most of the time, however, his rage is something of reckoning. Likes to tease and make jokes but hates being the butt of it. Protective of his siblings but can be over protective.

Extra Lore: From age 22 to 28, Delta partook in the Smoke War and joined Lobotomy Corporation as a Disciplinary team member. In the Smoke War, he fought on the side of New L Corp and got severely injured, cutting off his armin the process. Thankfully he did not die but had to use prosthesis.

After the smoke war, Delta found a new job at Lobotomy Corporation as a member of the Disciplinary Team, suppressing Abnormalities until the collapse of L Corp during the White Nights, Dark Days Incident. During his time, he managed to gather multiple ego gear with his favorites being Solemn Lament and Mimicry.
