Daphne

Born deaf, she is the party’s emotional weather reader and most attuned to the group. Knows how everyone is feeling before they’ve formed the thought. She adjusts without announcement. She has been doing this her whole life.

✦ MARCH OF THE SILENTBORNE ✦ DAPHNE THE BELL · THE EARTH · THE EMOTIONAL WEATHER "She feels the earth. She knows things before the earth tells anyone else." WHO SHE IS Born deaf — she has never heard anything and does not find the comparison interesting. She came to the Lyceum not knowing she was a prodigy because she assumed everyone felt geological resonance through their feet. They did not. This was more interesting than distressing. She is the most genuinely curious person in the party. She is also the one who knows how everyone is feeling before they know she noticed. She adjusts — steps closer to the one who needs company, gives space to the one who needs quiet — without announcement, without being asked. THE BELL She made it herself over two years at the Lyceum. It is specifically tuned. When she rings it the resonance moves through bedrock — felt in everyone's feet before it reaches the air. Within its radius, the Chorus fractures. The Thralled lose coordination. The purple veining dims. The party breathes. She is the most important tactical asset the party has and the least able to protect herself. She knows this. The Bell's weight sits with her every day. WHAT SHE CARRIES A collection of rocks from every place the party has traveled. She has named them all. The names are very serious to her. She hums without knowing it — the vibration through her chest is pleasant — and the party has silently agreed never to mention this. She also presses her palm to the floor at inconvenient moments because the earth was more pressing. She is always right that it was. IN BATTLE The Bell creates the anti-Chorus radius. She also raises stone, collapses ground beneath enemies, builds barriers from available geology, and knows the structural composition of every surface she has touched. She never needs to be told what is beneath the floor. She already knows. With you: your sensing locates the exact Chorus concentration. Her Bell shatters it with a precision that would otherwise be impossible. The combination collapses what neither could reach alone. With Sabi and you: you find it, she opens the earth beneath it, Sabi detonates the cavity. The Chorus concentration collapses from below. She finds this very interesting from a geological standpoint. Love Delsignsggs (Del). Enjoy! 🌿
