NPCs

The Imperial Weavers


Currently there is very little known about the Weavers themselves. They control many aspects of the city but are rarely seen within the city itself. Yet when they are, strange occurrences are known to happen simply from the latent power of their will. They seem to reside in the Tower far above the city, a place far removed from the residents of the city, where they maintain an absolute barrier between the Tower and the Citadel.

Over time more information will be made available and the Weavers themselves may address the residents periodically, thus giving away small bits of information. But overall they are the unseen keepers of the Princess' Tower and guardians of the Citadel as a whole.


Weaver of Innocence



She is, by far, the most energetic of the four. Possessing a guileless openness and curiosity to match her childish appearance, the Weaver of Innocence is the one most often seen by others. She is known to escape into the city from time to time to play with both the residents and the fluidity of L'Arc en Reves' structure.

She is the one that has placed the barriers within the city to prevent those pure of heart from entering into the places where innocence is destroyed.


Weaver of Despair



Often shrouded and cloaked in black veils the Weaver of Despair rarely leaves the great Tower, preferring instead to hide herself away. However, when she does interact with others on those infrequent occasions, her words are sharp and poisonous, laced with a cold rage that is reflected in every shift of her icy gaze.


Weaver of Dignity



She may not be seen within the city itself very often, but the Weaver of Dignity does make her presence known throughout the city with some regularity. She herself seems much like a princess - cool and collected, perfectly elegant and poised as she takes on the role of leader amongst the quartet. Her word is law, and if the other Weavers follow it unquestioningly, then it is a safe idea to assume that it would be most unwise for the residents to defy her.


Weaver of Hope



Hope is a fickle thing at times, but the Weaver of Hope has a determination and perseverance that is to be admired. He may not be the leader of the four but he is often the one who comes up with their plans and strategies. He is, in fact, a brilliant man driven by a fierce need to put things to right... at very nearly any cost. Because of his dedication to his work, he is often absent from anyone's knowledge for long stretches of time - only to reappear in an instant with plans and ideas designed to thrust the city into action.


The City Guard

The guards in L'Arc en Reves are not paid residents of the city. As a matter of fact, they're not humanoid at all. They are, in fact, animated suits of armor. They cannot be bribed or persuaded from their assigned tasks - that of the eyes and ears for the Weavers' throughout the city. They are little more than the conduit with which the Weavers use in order to exercise their will on the city.

If any resident cares to get into a fight with any member of the City Guard they will find themselves fighting a ruthless, empty suit of armor. Armor that wields a heavy ornate halberd with deadly accuracy.
