Xarithe's attention is drawn to the fey as she speaks, fascinated by the flutter of her wings. "Ah yes, ranged combat.....that is one area I do not personally excell, your skills will come in most handy." he states shooting the fairy a warm smile. The tries to discern what she might mean by her following comment, though decides it would be best not to linger long on such subjects, for already had his eyes begun to wonder across her body. "Indeed...I shall be interested to see, just how you handle yourself then in the battle to come." he kindly states re-establishing his focus as he looks to the others.<br/><br/>The Oracle's display is noteworthy enough, as she seems to be swinging around....well Xarithe isn't quite sure what the intended animal was to be, or if it was to portray an animal even at all. "Eiyre you say, then I shall refer to you as such, it's a pleasure to have you along." he states with a nod in her direction. When she divulges her usefulness in battle however, Xarithe cannot help but raise a brow "I see, debilitation is very useful, you shall be the poison then that drips from the tip of our fangs." he states "as for the rest..well...... that is quite the blessing.....bleeding wounds you say?" he thinks on this for a moment "Sounds unpleasant, I am pleased to hear that you can keep it in check, and look forward to seeing what you can do." he states curious to see how this 'blessing' would play out upon their foes. His eye darting to the wooden animal once more in her hands, a puzzle look spreading across his face as he simply shrugs, deciding it's best to leave it at that.<br/><br/>Lastly he looks to the golden eyed woman. "Turilia, noted." he repeats her name ensuring he had pronounced it correctly. "A versatile combatant, I look forward to fighting along side you." he simply states seeing her as one whom cared little for small talk.<br/><br/>"Now then, it appears we are all here...shall we proceed as planned?" Xarithe would say taking a few steps in the direction of the wood. Enjoying the company of his  companions, yet eager to get the battle underway. He could get to know them at his leisure afterwords, when the lives of children did not hang in the balance.<br/><br/>[[and my character portrait was in the OOC thread as well :3 ]]
