I am here because my people need me to help them. My life is theirs to use, and theirs are mine to protect. I will not let them down.

Steffhan is second-in-command aboard The Harbinger Ship. They’re a member of a Synthetic race that have existed for an incredibly long time and have developed and evolved so drastically that their mannerisms, personalities and ‘souls’ are almost indistinguishable from organic creatures. Steffhan is the leader of their people back on their home planet, and left in order to find a way to help stabilise the existence of their people, from finding them a new home, to supply routes for resources that they need.

They joined The Harbinger, and Kovare, in order to find a solution to their peoples’ problems and despite themselves have found a new family in the crew.

A kind creature, and fairly humorous in their own right, their role as Shaman has given them a wise outlook that others in the crew often seek out. Sometimes, simply to talk, and find comfort in Steffhan’s presence.

  • Props for them are anything they would use as a shaman of their people, including a gem and metal staff, and anything they might need as a co-commander of a spaceship. They tend not to use weaponry, and instead are somewhat of a shield and healer. Also likes taking care of plants with Kovare and likes being surrounded by life, both synthetic and organic.
  • Poses for them are often strong, proud and brave, they will put themselves into danger to protect someone else, and is often taking care of others wounds or damages. While they look gruff and dangerous, almost stern but in reality they're gentle, calm and wise. Movements while aged, and a little rickety, due to the age of his body, but all of his actions are calculated. Is often exploring, so can be seen on a variety of planets, and is normally assisting people with their work, or communing with nature.
  • Expressions are shown more with body language rather than facial expressions. While their mouth moves and opens, their face does not show many feelings, often only shown through tone, or through hand gestures. They speak quite a lot using their hands, and often punctuate their speech that way. A calm and wise person, all of their actions are calculated and considered carefully. They often keep their emotions controlled, but will often be honest with those they care about.

  • Can be drawn platonically with any of the crew, spends a good deal of time with them almost like a parent and often helps them out, or guides them where they need it.
  • Can be drawn romantically with Kovare, the two work closely together and are the closest of friends. They help Kovare learn more about the world, and guide, and find comfort, amusement and life in the way they see the world.

Aim beyond the stars, to find all that you can dream and imagine.

The Harbinger is the spaceship that was created by Kovare's people in order to explore and find homes in outer space. When they halted the mission, and grounded the ship, Kovare stole the ship and left their homeworld to carry out the mission, and to learn more of the world. Highly advanced and spacious, it has an individual room for each of the crew members, as well as a lab, kitchen, common room and weapons room to name a few.

Able to travel to any location with veritable ease, the majority of the ship upkeep falls to its integrated 'A.I', A.S.T.R.A, who updates and manages the ship's inner workings, and develops the astrological map used for lightspeed travel.

Bella, I have another routine for you to try out. How about we get some time together so you can practice, love?

Adrien works with Bella quite closely, practicing dance routines and creating music that will match her performance style. Though he is slightly over familiar with her and will sometimes receive threats in return. They've developed a teasing, playful relationship. Adrien likes getting her to come out of her shell and is trying to help her find comfort in other people's presence.

He also enjoys buying her new outfits, often dragging her out with him. Adrien has let Bella see into his mind so she has a good grasp over his feelings and how he struggles with himself and his upbringing. She shows signs of frustration at him hiding his struggles, but doesn’t bring it up. They very rarely discuss their pasts, he finds comfort in knowing she understands a similar upbringing and they fill their time with not thinking about their struggles.

Current

Adrien found his way to the Limbo Freak Show by chance. They were performing in town, to offer solace to the people during a hard economic hit. When he saw their show he saw a chance to escape from the life he'd been caged to. They saw his interest and saw something in him that was seeking freedom. He agreed to join them and travel to help bring light to other people.

He became their musician and choreographer. The Show has given him a sense of family and he's coming out of his shell a lot, finding comfort in their company.

History

Adrien was born to two musical geniuses. Isabella and Mateo Giovanni de Luca. The atmosphere he grew up in was suffocating and very strict. His oldest sister, Maria, grew to be cruel and unpleasant as well. Both Adrien and his younger sister, Ani, were struggling under their parents. Neither wanting to be constricted to their parent's plan for them. Even from a young age, Adrien has been very talented with instruments and music. The pressure of his parents made him avoid his responsibilities as much as possible in order to push back about it.

Becoming a little jaded and neglecting himself and his emotions, he tried to protect his sister as much as possible. When his father died, his mother grew even more controlling. Likely to help bring some more control into her life, that she believed she'd lost. When he realised she was going to lock him into a life he didn't want, he left home with no word to his mother or sister, only giving Ani a way to contact him.

Important events

Leaving home

Around the age of twenty, he finally managed to pull out from under his controlling mother. Not long after his father died and her treatment and personality worsened. This event helped him escape an abusive situation, and opened up his life for freedom and a chance to be comfortable in himself again.

Joining the show

Met and joined the freak show very soon after leaving home. Working a dead-end, boring job just to survive, he went to see them perform in the nearby town and was brought in by day/night, who saw a great deal of musical talent in him (As well as a lot of pain).

Reconnecting with his sister

A few years after having joined the freak show, he received word from his sister, Ani, that she was free from their parents and searching for her own direction in life. This event took a great deal of weight off his shoulders. Adrien is highly proud of his sister, and writes to her as much as he can.
