: I'm in! I'm so excited! XD

Edit

: I've changed Eden's history to make it more sensable and I deleted the two personality thing. It was originally planned to make RPGing a bit more spiced up but I'm lacking in the story boarding compartment to make it sound reasonable or sensable...

_________________________________

Name: Eden Hollenbeck

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Pokemon: Aegislash

Ability: Stance Change

Job: Knife Thrower

The Wheel
(Throwing knives at specific spots on a moving wheel with someone attatched to it)

Wish: "To throw a knife into anything with perfect accuracy"

Eden had wished to partake in the acts of Mr. Dark's circus and make a "Brilliant" act of her own. She wished to be able to throw a knife into anything without missing.

Backfire:

The knives Eden uses are actually fragments of her own mind, by each toss she looks another piece of her sanity. The knives she used to kill her parents were never retrieved,becuase of that she has remained in a state of child-like insanity.


Knives Info:
The knives Eden found are fragments of her mind and are not actually knives in a sense. Though she loses sanity by each toss, if the knives were to be used to stab with or thrown at someone they will either go through the person like a ghost, or vanish and return back to Eden. However this effect only happens within the circus grounds, if she were to leave they can indeed kill someone and they will not retrieve themselves back to Eden.

Personality:

Because the knives she used to kill her parents were never retrieved, Eden's mind has remained trapped in a type of insanity. She has reverted into a more childish state of mind acting like a child and being very naive and ignorant. Still she has a very cheerful disposition and likes to play outside and playing with the younger co-workers. Because of her rather... "optimistic" personality, she can easily get on the nerves of the more serious co-workers by asking them to play with her over and over again, taking their things just to play a game of chase, or simply being a disturbace of their inner-peace. She gets along very well with children and tends to take interest in rather.... odd things, such as searching for spiders or playing "Peek-a-boo" with others with Shadow Sneak.

Despite this, when on stage she acts proper and polite, always doing her best in her acts.

When asked about her parents, she says they're on a business trip far far away and during the mean time Mr. Dark is looking after her.

History:

Eden was the daughter of a wealthy couple with high moral standards. Her family always taught her the way of beauty and grace, along with what is considered "Right" and "Wrong".
When Eden became a duoblade at age 17 and she was immediatly evolved into an Aegislash with a piece of a larger Dusk Stone that the family kept for generations. Aegislash are considered being of royality and so the Hollenbeck family for generations evolved their children once they had become duoblades so they can finally have the "gift of royality".

However, Eden didn't like the sense of royalty very well....

She loved to play outside! Chase after butterflies and search for hidden items like a little child. Her parents however, did not like this "child-like" behavior of hers and they began to hate it after she evolved into an aegislash. They kept flinching when they see her beautiful dresses get covered in dirt and getting sick when her beauitful golden body becomes filthy.

One day, they had enough!

They had given Eden high restrictions and pervented her access to the outside world. Eden become very depressed after this decision was made, however she always obeyed her parents and she accepted her caged fate.
Her parents gave her toys to help coax her into having fun inside the house instead of outside. But she barely touched them and they simply stayed there on her dressers and drawers as she curled herself on the bed while tears streamed down her face.

After seeing their daughter in such a despressed state, they decided to try and make it up to her.
Eden's parent's told her that the circus was coming to town next week and asked if it would make her feel better if they all went together. Eden smiled and quickly tackled her father with her arms stretched open, and then hugged her mother.

When the week came, Eden was taken to the circus with her mother, father, and maid. The colorful lights, the unique sounds, and the sweet smell of all sorts of candy and treats.
The young girl couldn't keep still with the seizure of colors flashing and glowing everywhere.
However, her parents didn't like to be outside where there was trash, dirt, and all sorts of unspeakable things. So they quickly took Eden into the tent...

Eden got one of the best seats, however she couldn't sit still. The opening acts were just starting and she felt they were rather... bland. Eden stared back at her parents, then towards the maid to her side. She waited till they were entranced to the show and used her Shadow Sneak to escape under the seats.

Knowing she would get in trouble for this, she assured herself by saying that she's okay as long as she doesn't leave the tent.
The ghost girl shifted through the shadows and ended up behind the curtain. There she found all sorts of supplies for an unimaginable amount of tricks and shows. Ropes, hoops, cages, you name it! But what caught her eye was a box full of knives...

She carefully took one and examined it.
They look well prepared and its possible it will be used for the next act...

"Well well well, what do we have here?"

A dark, but gentle voice spoke behind her! Eden was startled and squeaked from being caught where she doesn't belong.
The man infront of her was tall, dark, and handsome. His posture showed he was a gentleman of a high stature. He looked down at Eden with his glowing blue eye as the other remained out of view from his white flowing hair.

"Mister.... I'm sorry... I was just... I mean.... Uh, I, uh..."
Eden was nervous and wasn't too sure what to say, she had no clue on how to get out of this mess.

"You shouldn't be back here young lady, the show has begun and there's no way to see it from here~" The man started to direct Eden out of from behind the stage, however she quickly went infront of him and told him...

"I'm sorry, but I don't really like the show..."

The tall man lost his smile for a moment, showing a rather unimpressed expression that sent a chill down Eden's back.

"I-I-I mean, these knives... They look really cool! I sorta... want to make a better act with them..."

The man suddenly regrained his grin, and walked passed Eden with a sigh...

"I'm sorry my dear girl, but someone like you can't possibly know how to use them in a brilliant act, they'll cut your poor hands up"

"I wish I could... use them..." replied Eden quietly twiddling her fingers.

"Hmm? What did you say?" replied the man.

"Huh? I wish I could... use the knives..... you know..... be good.... at throwing... and stuff...."
Eden was too nervous and shy to say anything more than a murmer, however the dark tall man grew a larger grin and walked back towards the girl.

"Excuse me, but I've been rather rude! My name is Mr. Dark, and I am the owner of this wonderful circus! Now, may I ask what your name is my lady?"
Eden was shocked from his sudden introduction but was also intrigued...
"I'm Eden Hollenbeck, its nice to meet you Mr. Dark..."

"Now my young Eden, as the owner of this beautiful and amazing circus I must do my best in keeping it that way. But what if you said is true, then I'm afraid I'm in a bit of a bind. If my acts are not interesting I may go out of business and I can't let that happen! But I am unsure of where to start in finding amazing acts... My dear Eden, is it possible that I give you a... proposition?"

Eden looked up at the poor man who seemed to have gotten troubled by her own words, wanting to make up for it she nodded.

"You see Eden, I can grant wishes! And in exchange for a wish, you must work for me in my circus!"

Mr. Dark began to lean closer to Eden, his shadow overcasting her and his eye glowing ever brighter. She began to grow anxious but she was too excited to stay quiet.

"Well... I wish I was a professional knife thrower! I want to be able to throw a knife into anything with perfect accuracy!" replied Eden as she revealed a knife that she had hidden underneath her outfit, the one she examined from the pile.

Mr. Dark appeared to be in thought for a moment, but he quickly leaned over Eden and gave her his hand.

"Take my hand my dear, and your wish will come true!"

Eden did what he said and carefully placed her's on his. However she quickly felt a sharp pain in her entire body, as if she was struck with several needles and they quickly penetrated into her blood stream!


Eden woke up to see her parents shaking her violently.
She looked up to see two angered expressions looking at her with a hint of worry.
Her parents scolded her about sneaking away from them and leaving the tent without the maid. Eden was confused on the last statment till she looked around and realized she somehow left the tent. What was also strange was that everyone had left already... The only things that moved were left over trash and debris being pushed by the chilling wind.

Eden sighed and got up, however she realized there were several knives right beside her.
With her parent's backs turned, she picked up two of them and looked at them from the moon's light. They all glimmered with a golden sheen as they sparkled brilliantly under the moonlight.
She glanced over her parents, she grumbled under her breathe...
Eden didn't want to go home... She didn't want to be stuck in her bedroom again. She decided to toy around with the knives and she weakly threw them behind her.

However, what she didn't hear was the sound of two pieces of metal hitting the dirt ground, but a blood curdling scream coming from behind!

Eden quickly turned around to see both of her parents on the ground with the knives stuck in each of their backs!
The maid had screamed to the point of fainting...
Eden stood there, silent... trying to proccess what just happened. She walked up and saw the etheral black blood leaking out of her parent's backs...
Those were nothing but knives... there was no way they could have penetrate the strong steel bodies of an aegislash....

Suddenly Eden started screaming at the tops of her lungs, she wailed hard and long without a stop for breathe. She kept the banshee's song for a long while until she fell backwards, worn out from her outburst.
Footsteps were heard from behind her, she turned her eyes towards the shadowy figure. Mr. Dark once again casted a dark shadow over her...

"Well well, quite a mess! I'll have to get the janitor to clean this up before morning," said the dark slender man.

"My.... papa....mama..."
Eden couldn't even speak from the incredible shock she is currently having, she just layed there with her back to the ground and her eyes cold and stiff.

"Hmm? Yes, I am quite surprised that you would actually kill them, but its alright! I'll still humbly accept you into my circus!"
Mr. Dark grew a wry smirk, the glow of his eye became malevolent..

"I just... tossed them... but how?" whimpered Eden.

"You wished to be able to throw a knife into ANYTHING with perfect accuracy! You had wanted to hit your parents with your knives and so you did!"


The next morning, the bodies were cleaned up and the circus once again continued its festival activites. Everyone was happy and cheerful again, as they played and laughed among each other in a loud band of squealls and giggles. Inside the tent, the final opening act came to a close and the new main act came into view. A large wheel was placed in the middle of the tent and a small girl came into view. She asked if she could have an assistant in her act and a young man came into the spot light. The man was tied up against the wheel and soon the girl threw knives in a sort of dance as the wheel turned and turned.... No matter how weak looking the toss was or how off it appeared to have been thrown, it managed to hit every spot without harm brought to the assistant.
Once the act was over, the girl gave a smile... a strange smile...
Mr. Dark's aura radiated over her... her smile turned to a wide grin.

The girl we knew no longer exsisted... The utter pain and shock of her muddering her parents had broken her. Her mind now in a state of delusion. She laughed and giggled like a girl, ignorant to death itself. She was happy and playful....

Her memories of last night vanished... they soon became nothing but a simple nightmare...

Awwwww.... So cute. I could just hug her, but she's sharp. She could pop blimps with her sword and knives.

Eden is best Aegislash!
