About

Vyra.png

Born in 1989, Vyra has no family to speak of. She awoke several years ago, but couldn't tell you the exact date. Or maybe she can. But she won't. Vyra's blond hair has darkened, to an almost brown, her brown eyes sunken and the once friendly smile a cold distant shadow. Her eyes and smile only seem to lighten when she is with Kalfu.

Vyra is no longer the calm, relaxed woman she was when she came to the Consillium. She is not the gentle soul she once was, because she's seen too much, watched people die too frequently. She still likes to protect those she views as her children, and does her best to ensure that they reach their full potential within their abilities, without compromising who they are as a person. She encourages the use of magic for mages to better themselves and believes that mages should strive to be the strongest, most dedicated and most informed versions of themselves. Those who have spent enough time with her have come to learn that she no longer makes as many time puns as she used to, nor does the glow in her eyes still shine like it once did. She's a woman broken, hardened, and suddenly resistant to everything the world can throw at her.

Timeline

  • 1989 - Born.
  • 2015 - Moves to Canberra three weeks after Evelynne disappears is found murdered in Canberra while running from " Police".
  • 2015 - She stays with Archived-Anubis when she first moves to the city before spending a small amount of time living with Archived-Journeyman until she is able to find her own apartment. Later on it is discovered that she also worked to join the Seers for some time, and this was why she left the Guardians of the Veil (combined with a strong hatred for Archived-I. P. Smith). That was before her mission was compromised by Archived-I. P. Smith and she had to abandon it. When this was all discovered and poorly dealt with, Archived-Freak encouraged her to speak with Archived-TrueBlood and have him try to help her with the magic used to change her mind. She agreed, and with his help, the Seer Guardian in her mind was killed. This also meant that the safety net that was set up just in case such things happened was triggered, and she was able to freely leave the Seers to return to the Canberra Consillium, where she then became Heirarch and worked to help the city. In November she got her memories back and had to process all of the things she had done while lacking them. This meant she had a crisis of identity for about the third time this year.
  • 2016 - Went to the meeting, had a discussion with only a few mages before an emergency was brought before her. She dealt with that, then her Time was required to find some information. Later, she went to the Councillor meeting and put her foot down in regards to stand in councillors seeking to re-vote on things already decided by others. Left two mages in charge of watching the consillium while she went to deal with the Spirit. Once the Spirit was freed, she released a decree that no mage was to seek out spirits (other than their familiars) without speaking with Archived-Journeyman first. Watched (through Divination) Beckett die at Daisy-Rains hands and to save him, she called Shirou to ask her to try and get to him in time. Had it all unfold exactly as she expected and Archived-Daisy-Rain was killed as punishment. Archived-Anna left the cabal without warning, resulting in it becoming defunct and a new Heirarch being elected. She then finds, in a bittersweet turn of events, that the new cabal she has joined is the first to not be ratified by the council.

Quotes By

"I am, now more than I have ever been before, disgusted that I must serve in your city"

- To Archived-Beckett Shore, September 2015.
"I was wrong Beckett. It is now that I am most disgusted. Soon I will depart for the last time, and when I do, I will always remember that the city failed not just me, but also you."
- Muttered quietly, outside the Guardian Sanctum, February 2016.


"She hates me. I can only assume she knows what I did but not why, nor that everything did, was to help her. I don't think she'll forgive me. But I don't expect it. For in her eyes, I have finally lived up to the shadowname I took all those years ago."

- Regarding Archived-Sash when she awoke.


"He manipulated her into leaving, their cabal is the first to not be ratified, he is removed from his Order for his incompetence, and now kills himself, leaving that child without a cabal and alone in a world that will spit on her the same way she spat on everything I did for her. I'm starting to think that if Archived-Elijah was right about his god, we must surely be answering to Loki."

- With a chuckle, sitting alone in her living room and reflecting on Archived-I. P. Smith and Archived-Anna, April 2016.


"I suppose it is easier for me. I have seen him die before, and you, and her. The difference is normally when I open my eyes they're standing in front of me. Not lying face down in the mud. As for Daisy, she was never going to kill me on the car ride back. She always intended on killing me last to make sure I got to watch every single one of you die one last time. She understood what that would do to me in a way many do not."

- to the Mage who asked how she handled Beckett's death so well, and why she took Daisy back to the Consillium in her own car, alone.

Quotes About

"its not a question of replacing her to a satisfactory degree. Its a matter of emotion, people will miss her and the feelings they had for her, and you seek to replace that?"

- Archived-Journeyman when told by Vyra that she was Evelynne's replacement.


"Apparently, back when the universe was fire and dust, barely past being born, the few items of mass that would form would just as quickly break apart, unable to hold themselves together in the vast vacuum of space, tearing at them from all angles. And most of what we know as planets wouldn't have existed, save for the couple of pieces of the universe that came together in just the right way, sucking in more and more matter until they combusted in brilliant light and heat, shining like beacons in the void of space. Beacons. Shining in the night, and lighting up the galaxy by their mere presence, undaunted by the struggle of their existence."
"And those lost chunks of rock and dust were drawn to them, spinning around them, and slowly, thanks to the stability of the orbit, managed to put themselves back together from the shattered pieces they'd broken into, until they were stable, turning around and holding onto the star that had pulled them together, as they rocketed through the unknown void of space."
"That planet, though? That shattered pile of rock and dust that got built into something again? It's not gonna stop orbiting the star that built it up. It'll stay there, rocking around that sun, until one day they're both old and dead, and collapse into a black oblivion, together."

- Archived-Dornelia.


"Hey, look, Archived-Freak; turns out I can make monsters, too."

- Archived-Sash.


"...I have found Hierarch Vyra to be very professional and capable, and fully prepared to take things into her own hands."

- Archived-The Director, as part of a character reference statement.


"She also has a very strange vibe, she calls herself mother to all mages and them her children. It seems a little creepy to me to be honest, but I think quietly that is why a lot of the mages there liked her attention."

- Archived-The Director, in private, as a reassurance when asked about Vyra

Conversations

Daisy: "Why'd you save me?"
Vyra: "Because you would have died otherwise. I know you're upset, but I had to."
Daisy: "But she's dead and I am alive now."
Vyra: "I could only save one of you, I had to make a choice."
Daisy: "So, why'd you save me?"
Vyra: "I don't know. But you can't blame yourself for her being dead and you being alive. This wasn't your fault"
Daisy: "I know it's not. It's your fault."

- Vyra trying to console a distraught (and surprisingly lucid) Archived-Daisy-Rain after Piper's death.


Archived-Freak: "My mistake was going to that realm in the first place. If I hadn't, none of this would have happened."
Vyra: "Who even cares anymore? Nothing matters anymore. It doesn't matter. I can only blind and burn."
Archived-Freak: "I care. If I hadn't, I wouldn't be facing the idea of losing you, our daughter, or Vanessa."
Vyra: "You won't lose me. But if you live through this, I'll divorce him for you."

- The couple discuss Daisy's demise, February 2016


Daisy: "I was going to kill you last, so that you could watch everyone die one by one."
Vyra: "I have watched them die, and it won't be the last time either."

- A discussion in the car on the way to Daisy's death sentence, February 2016.

Quotes

"I have seen the look on your face when I've hurt you so badly that your whole body is crying, you're bleeding, you can't move, and your heart is aching so badly you can't take a breath or say a word. Know that when I see you like that, so vulnerable, so broken, and so very much my own, that is when I love you most."
