The Great Guardian

Name: Miko Grally / Miko Glory
Age: 11 / 27
Race: Divine human
Hair: Brown / Golden Blonde
Eyes: Bright Hazel / Shinning Blue
Height: 4'8" / 5'9"
Weight: 95lbs / 140lbs
Personality: Miko Grally is young, curious, and always smiling. He has the same starry-eyed dreams of adventure as any boy in the backyard playing with a wooden sword and shield. Miko Glory is distant from the world, considering everything before acting. He searches for purpose, and fights only for the greater good.
Appearance: Grally is ‘adorable’. With a fluffy head of hair, and a curious smile always perched between his cheeks he always looks happy and carefree. He’s usually dressed in common peasants attire: brown slacks and a forest green top, or a brown tunic, or other things similar. Glory has a air seriousness to him. His eyes are bright, but always focussed. His tanned skin is dinted with tightened muscles, and glows with a very soft golden aura, which is visible even in the white wings that sprout from his back. He is bare-chested, and wears a soft white lower robe that cuts off just above the knee.
History: For as long as either of them can remember, Miko Grally and Miko Glory have been living in a tree house in a dense part of Concordia. They kept to themselves for many years, only coming out into the open when necessary. Grally has always wanted to see the rest of the world, but Glory feels compelled to stay hidden because he knows there is something different about them. The rest of the world is filled with individual souls, whereas they are two who share the same body.
Grally has been growing up under the watchful eye of his second soul, who teaches him how to gather food and stay out of danger’s way. However, after eleven years he’s grown tired of his little house in the tree, and wants to do some of the things he’s been reading about in all the books he’s been collecting. Miko Grally wants nothing more than to meet people, and to learn all about them. He’s very eager to lend a hand wherever he can, and any money he’s collected generally ends up in the hands of the needy. He hardly understands the concept of money, but knows he doesn’t really have use for it.
Glory watches over Grally, teaching and protecting him like an older brother. However, while Grally grows curious about exploring the world Glory can’t help but wonder why they’re here. For as long as he can remember he’s been watching Grally growing up, talking to him and teaching him things. However, Grally is the only one of them that ages, and the only one of them that needs to eat and drink. And Glory can’t remember how he knows the things he’s teaching to this child. Sometimes, while he’s meditating, he can almost remember something from before the forest. It stays on his mind like some dream he’d forgotten the moment he woke up. He believes there is more to their life than just existing, but until he can remember what it is he prefers to stay out of sight.
Shortly after Miko Grally turned 11 he made a plea to Glory to go out into the world and finally see it with his own eyes. Glory, however, still felt the open world was too dangerous for them. Even though their trips into the village had been more frequent ,and Grally’s boyish form blended right in, Glory still didn’t trust the world. Sad, but trusting his friend, Grally agreed and things continued as normal. However, two weeks later there was a great storm in the forest. Glory had been in possession of the body that night, and was meditating when it happened. When he looked up for a moment, something speaking to his soul, he saw a figure standing outside of their window. The figure was long, like a shadow moving on its own, and it just stared in at them. The figure was gone the moment Glory blinked, but not without sounding an alarm deep inside of him. He woke Grally’s consciousness inside of him, and gathering up a few things for the road Glory took them as far away as he could. Grally didn’t understand, but Glory couldn’t explain it. Neither of them had any idea what the creature was, but Glory knew they had to get out of there before it brought the others.
Skills:
(Mutual Skills)
Survival: Both Grally and Glory know how to survive in the wilderness, acquire food, build shelter and treat minor wounds.
Combat: Miko Grally isn’t a good fighter, but if cornered he’s been trained how to use simple weapons and attack effective parts of the body. However, he is not a strong fighter and will try and let Glory take over as soon as possible. Miko Glory is well built, and adept to combat. He’s quick on his feet and knows where to strike to cause damage. He is an above average melee fighter with his special weapon ‘Divinity’s Thorn’.
24/7: Since they take turns living it is possible for one of them to always be up and alert. Both of them require rest, but being suspended while the other possess the body counts as rest for the same amount of hours as sleeping does. Miko Grally requires sleep, but Glory just needs a period of deep meditation to receive rest.
Two Heads are Better than One: While one of them is suspended in the others mind they can communicate freely, so long as the consciousness isn’t ‘resting’. This adds to their ability to problem solve, or to stay calm if one of them is getting emotional or irrational. They can each see what the other sees, but they do have a private inner consciousness that they can block the other from reading.
My Burdens to Bear: They do not share wounds. Battle damage that Glory receives is not passed onto Grally when they transform. The same goes for Glory if Grally is wounded. However, if one of them is wounded they must individually receive medical attention. Healing one does not heal the other.
(Glory’s Skills)
Flight: Glory can use his wings as a method of transportation. It’s faster than running, and he has a high level of stamina for flight. However, since taking off requires open space and a constant foot speed it is not ideal in all situation; particularly a battle
Regeneration: Miko Glory’s divine form can regenerate itself during periods of rest. Major wounds take a lot of time to heal and, depending their intensity, are best treated before going into a state of ‘rest’.
Deific Presence: Miko Glory’s golden aura can fend of creatures of darkness to a certain degree. It wards off evil spirits and stalkers of the night, however it can also attract greater evil if he should enter their territory.
(Grally’s Skills)
Innocence: Miko Grally has a charm about him that just makes him so gosh-darn cute! People fall in love with this kid, and do what they can to help him out. Store keeps cut him a break, guards will escort him if it’s dark out, and Inn keepers usually let him stay for free or let him sweep the floors to earn a night’s stay. However, this means he’s often preyed on by swindlers, burglars, and other creeps who hang out in dark alleys looking to ruin the lives of the good.
Equipment:
(Glory’s Equipment)
Divinity’s Thorn: This is a special weapon that Glory has carried with him for as long as he can remember. Making use of it’s lightweight body and impressive reach it was an ideal hunting tool, but is even better as a weapon. It is one of a kind, forged of divine silver, and easy to maneuver. It is similar to a pole-axe, however the axe blades are different sizes. The front axe blade is about a foot long and sticks out about ten inches. The back blade is two feet long, but about six inches stick up at the back like a small spear blade, and then it forms a small ‘R’ shape down the pole and ends half a foot longer than the front axe blade. The widest the back blade gets is four inches, right where the ‘R’ swells. At the bottom of the pole is a two inch wide, one foot long scythe blade. It juts out towards the front, the same side as the foot long axe blade. The pole itself is a little over four feet long. The weapon will level up with him, but for now it has the strength of steel with a few 'holy' properties. The weapon can cause increased damage to 'dark' creatures. It does not affect armour, but when the blades cut flesh the wounds they inflict take a greater time to heal.
(Grally’s Equipment)
Hunting Dagger: A standard, six inch, steel dagger used for hunting delicious animals. When used properly it can be a pretty potent weapon.
Backpack: Grally carries a backpack of standard travelling supplies. Water, food, a couple blankets, and any other trinkets he picks up along the way.
***A Note on transformation***
The particulars that separate Grally and Glory are slightly different than most transfigurations. They both have distinct forms that they appear as when taking possession of the body. In fact, it’s best not to think they share a ‘body’ but are instead taking turns occupying space in this world. They can familiarize themselves with their clothing and equipment, and take it with them when they are suspended in one another’s mind. As they grow, they can take other things with them, but they have to be inanimate objects. Miko Grally carries all his clothing, including the small backpack and dagger into the void, and Glory carries his clothing and Divinity’s Thorn with him. To a certain extent, they appear as they see themselves. Taking with them objects they are familiar to carrying, wielding, or protecting. But to be honest, it’s just done so I don’t have to switch their clothing or weapons every time they transform.
