Mission
The smell of death was in the air, Lagi's killer instinct was simple to understand. It always came with the chills when he looked at you, the lightest of death would gently caress your shoulder ever so tightly as he closed the distance. For those who haven't realized the black butterflies that floated around him ever so fiercely, they would translate to the unnatural feeling he gave off at times. Most of all, Lagi's strength was undeniable, he was indeed one of the strongest members of the Dark Rukh makeshift team that eight managed to gather on his own. At this time, Lagi was going to show off a little bit of a demonstration, all on his own. There was a fort that belonged to the Shikizui clan, which led Lagi to two options. He could either show off his espionage skills and distract the people there before the Kogata clan members came in to steal the required information. Or he could go with option B, which was mostly centered around destroying everything and everyone. Lately, Lagi as experiencing a particular amount of rage and had no sort of window to express this towards. He couldn't help but feel that the Kogata clan didn't feel appreciative of their hard-earned efforts and actually thought that maybe they underestimated him a bit. So right now, it was time for a show. He wanted to give off quite the performance with no sort of help or backup from his allies or the Kogata clan. Lagi was going to march to the fort with nothing but his own abilities, tools, and beasts, and take it all down. He wanted to remind them of what he was capable of while by himself, he wanted to show them that his malice towards humanity was being restrained based on the faith that he had for a select few humans.
He didn't want to be hypocritical, he was once human himself. Everything deserved a fair chance until it was proven that nothing would change, he would be the one to change it if it came to that particular conclusion.
"Jynx, are you sure that you want to do this alone? I could come with you during the chaos in order to watch your back. Even though I have strong ties to the Kogata clan and care about their success, your own successes during the missions to help my clan prosper has earned you my loyalty and respect. I am yours to command if you needed me."
It was nice of the Kogata ninja to offer such a thing to help Lagi, but such help wasn't needed, not initially anyway. At this point, since this ninja was working with Lagi more closely, he didn't need to hide his face from him. It was more around the likes of the mask being a representation and no longer a need to hide behind. His face is something that people who came to Tartarus would recognize, the dungeon beast nobility of being a lord wasn't something he should be ashamed of after giving it such a status.
"I'm going to do my part and clear the way. Once the fighting is over, I need you to move forward before the other Kogata ninja in order to pick up the pieces. Any essential information, I want it to be leaked back to the leader of the Kogata clan the one she left under my care was the one that brought back the most important things to her mission. Having me as an ally isn't to be taken lightly. Pretty soon, you'll see what it means to have me as an enemy as well if you watch this fight closely."
Later on that night, Lagi arrived at the fort with his Requiem Jynx mask on and started to transform into his vampire lord form. Upon doing, he commanded Longzufu to destroy the fort and make a mess of things.
"It's time to conduct evil. Longzufu! Destroy the fort, you know who to kill!"
With A-rank speed and A rank strength, the ground dragon moved incredibly fast as dashed across the fort like a shark on land. It was getting into the very root of the fort's structure and inadvertently killing the guards as collateral damage of Longzuifu's passthrough. He was hitting fast and strong, continuing to do so before Lagi landing on the ground with his A rank flight speed and whistling for Longzufu to return. Once that occurred, he waited to see a few people emerge from the rubble. Some looked incapable of fighting, but there was one that stood particularly strong. The Shikizui Commander stood tall, but with Orie's danger sense, he was easy to track and probably easy for Lagi to handle.
"Monster, who sent you?!! Your form.... are you from the Morihanna clan?!"
Lagi only chuckled as he flexed his muscles.
"As if they can produce such an image of magnificence. Come, fight to live. The fate of your comrades, and perhaps, your clan's existence depends on defeating me. Don't worry about the dragon, he will not get involved. "
The Shikizui commander glared at Lagi's monstrous form with rage, the people that Longzufu damaged with his assault on the fort were either dying or close to death's door.
"For what you have done to the soldiers under my care, you shall receive no mercy from me."
It wasn't like Lagi was expecting any mercy from him anyway.

- Job Name: A Tall Favour [Western Peak]
Job Rank: B
Job Location: Mt. Raiji
Job Reward: 200XP | 15,000 Huang
Job Prerequisites: Pledge yourself to the Morihana, the Kogata, the Toh or the Kazeharu
Job Overview: Kogata Fumiko has ordered that the surrounding mountains nearby Mt Raiji be secured for greater ease of trade. Since Mt Raiji sits at the centre of the Kinan island, all trade goods must pass through the mountain range north towards the merchant harbour Yutaro - be it animal hides from the east, dyes made in the west or other wares. Thus, this location is integral for the Kogata alliance’s tightening grip upon the country. This path has you choose the western peak, teeming with enemy soldiers. It is a Shikizui fort, placed there to oversee the various goods that pass through, ensuring that all wares have the Hinamoto seal of approval. You must either distract the Shikizui commander residing there, giving Kogata spies some time to steal documents on the trade coming in, or kill him and send the fort into disarray.
Shikizui Commander:
Enemy Name: Shikizui Commander
Enemy Tier: A-tier
Damage Required to Defeat: A-tier
Description: A gruff man in his fifties, boasting an astounding frame formed of pure muscle. He has been tempered by decades of warfare between the clans, yet that constant conflict has worn away at his body and mind. He wields his tremendously long taichi, a blade over three metres long, but his well-polished skill is weighed down by his age and tiredness.
Abilities:
Old Time’s Sake: He imbues his taichi with magoi and sends a circular shockwave in a five metre radius, which hits for B tier damage and stuns anyone in the perimeter for a post.
Drink’s on the House: He stands his ground, blocking an attack of B tier or below with his taichi, before quickly slashing the blade outwards to deal B tier damage.
Last Person There: He rushes forwards ten metres with his taichi stretched outwards, dealing A tier damage to all in his way.
Final Push: He fills his lungs to the brim, taking in all the air and courage he can, before launching a frontal assault with his taichi aimed directly at a target’s neck - no attack or ability below A tier will faze him during this assault.

Trait Name: Wing Digger
Trait Tier: A-tier
Trait Requirement: Jade Dragon
Trait Description: Longzufu's wings aren't just for flying; due to their unique build, it allows him to burrow at intensive speeds. When digging underground, it's as if he's swimming through water.
Trait Effect: Longzufu is capable of burrowing up to A-tier speeds (the equivalent of a B-tier Fanalis). He can dig through dirt, sand, and crystals, leaving a tunnel behind him (which supplies him with air; he'll destroy his own crystals if he burrows through him). He can dig up to 15m beneath the surface (but loses vibration sense after 10m). The closer to the surface he is, the bigger the tremors are from his size. He cannot swim through water and suffers a speed reduction of 2 tiers (C-tier speeds) if Longzufu swims through mud. If he attempts to dig through snow, he does so at D-tier speeds and gets D-tier frost damage.
Name: Requiem Jynx
Tier: A-Tier
Material: (Steel+Orie's Black Sludge)
Description: Feeling that there needed to be a way to operate more freely without changing his face constantly all the time , Lagi figured that making a unique organic mask that's fitted to his face through orie's special goop can be the perfect combination for a skin-tight mask that can be called upon and released upon his leisure. Due to it bonding with Orie somewhat, the mask can be put on at any time for the sake of representing himself as the drug kingpin of the dark hand and associating himself with an icon he would want them to see.
Trait Name: Danger Sense
Trait Tier: Ω-Tier
Trait Requirement: N/A
Trait Description: Protecting the host's body is the first and foremost function of a symbiote due to the fact that their relationship is dependent on each other. With the recent evolution that Orie has experienced, one of the ways she keeps her host safe is by alerting the user of any lifeforms that enter a certain range and provides heightened senses as well.
Trait Effect: Through Orie, the user is able to sense and determine the location of all living beings within a 10m radius. However, non-living entities are unable to be detected. In a 40 meter radius, the user is able to hear noises as quiet as a whisper and smell scents that are normally scentless
Beast Traits:
Trait Name: Land Demon
Trait Tier: A-tier
Trait Requirement: Jade Dragon
Trait Description: Longzufu, as a dragon, is an apex predator. His body, large and powerful, can move at incredible speeds.
Trait Effect: This beast is capable of A-tier movement speeds (or the equivalent of a B-Tier fanalis) on the ground.
