<div class="floatleft">(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j480/Erion2451/986826-bigthumbnail_zpsbc53c8f6.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Gwen Albion<br/><strong>Team:</strong>Ghast<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Team Ghast's room.<br/><strong>Tags:</strong>Members of Ghast<br/><hr/><br/><strong>"It's still there,"</strong>Gwen had said,<strong>"I think.  It was just abandoned, but after ten years..."</strong>her voice drifted for a moment,<strong>"it may not be."</strong><br/><br/>It was obvious that she hadn't given her first reaction much thought.  She smiled at her own conclusion, which she then turned toward Ruby, and added a shrug.<br/><br/><strong>"I don't think it'll ever get warm enough for your motorcycle, unfortunately.  The roads here are more packed snow than anything.  Could possibly add some snow tires and add a pair of skis along each tire.  Would still have to worry about the fluid freezing in the lines, but I guess there's a possibility."</strong>Gwen spoke aloud with optimism.<br/><br/>When Ruby talked about giving black eyes and bloody noses Gwen simply smiled.  That must have been before they'd been taught to activate and use their Auras.  Aura activation had been one of the first things taught at Spiral; so while injuries did occur, they didn't occur very often.<br/><br/><strong>""Thanks, I designed her myself.  The harpoon is actually a pretty traditional weapon in colder climates.  A lot of weapons had their origins as farming equipment or other tools,"</strong>Gwen trailed off not wanting to be a know-it-all.<strong>Yeah, there is a bit of range involved compared to the gauntlet shotgun.  Just the lever action shotgun,"</strong>Gwen admitted.<strong>"I toyed around with some other designs, but they threw off the balance of the weapon."</strong><br/><br/>Gwen had sat upon her bed and opened her Scroll.  She frowned when she read that the uniforms were not mandatory, and decided after the day was done she'd toss hers in the very bottom of her nightstand, somewhere where it likely would never see the light of day again.<br/><br/>She found it somewhat amusing and intriguing to watch Erik struggle to get his armor into a locker.  She didn't volunteer to help, and he eventually figured it out.  She never did quite understand the need for armor.<br/><br/>She waved at Rai when he entered and noted his appearance when he returned from the bathroom with a quiet smile.<br/><br/>Gwen stayed quiet for a long moment after Erik offered to tell Ruby what had happened.  She wondered how much Erik would actually tell their teammate.  Gwen had only been nine, and while she'd heard different accounts they had all differed slightly.  As much as she loathed to recall it, Erik had been a member of the militia, at the time, and would likely have a better recollection than many, including herself.
