Art by L~Chan!

She has shed her earthly name, and since becoming third High Summoner since the great war between Zanarkand and Bevelle, she remains known only as the High Summoner. While the others found their own peace, she roams the Farplane communicating with the Aeons and trying to find answers to questions that linger after the Final Summoning. Though she does not speak of it, she seems to carry an unbearable sadness, likely due to the loss of her lover and only Guardian, a young woman who never ascended to the Farplane.

Though often preoccupied with her own thoughts, she is a valuable connection between the Aeons and the Spirans, and does her best to help the Aeons understand what is happening in the world when they are not Summoned. She is gentle and usually very kind, almost always willing to lend a helping hand to Summoners and Aeons alike, even if she doesn't exactly agree with the outcome of the Final Summoning. She will often go out of her way to pair Aeons with worthy Summoners, and if a Summoner spends too long in the Chamber of the Fayth seeking the guidance of an Aeon, she will sometimes appear to them to give them hope.

Official art of the Farplane.

It is the place where the souls of the dead are sent to find peace; where the Aeons dwell when they are not summoned. It is endless and beautiful, full of dramatic cliffs and gentle fields of flowers, rushing waters and cool, steady breezes. Time does not exist there, as when the souls rejoin the Farplane, they disperse into pyreflies and are reborn into the world.

Only the Aeons and the High Summoner retain their shape here, the former because they are dreams of the Fayth and therefore are not dead, and the latter because she cannot let go of the life she held. Humans may not tread here, though there is a place in Guadosalam where the Spirans are able to enter onto the edge of the Farplane, and their emotions and memories will summon pyreflies to take the shape of those that they have lost.

Aeons may not communicate with Spirans at Guadosalam, but if Summoned, they are more than capable of speaking to their Summoners and having conversations on any manner of things.

Spira itself is a relatively small world, with landmasses huddled close together against one very large ocean. Cities never seem to get very large, because if they do Sin attacks, but the people manage to maintain a fairly normal life within the Calm.

For detailed information on the world, go to the Wikipedia article on Spira.

Aeons are the dreams of the Fayth contained inside Dream Zanarkand. As such, they are not true living beasts, but they retain a physical form and very vibrant personalities despite that. Though the premise of this shop alters the Aeons somewhat from their original incarnation in the game (namely, giving them a life cycle and allowing them to breed) we will be attempting to keep them as close as possible.

All Aeons have a Fayth. Located inside a dream city far out in the ocean, there are tens of thousands of Fayth locked in an eternal slumber, their memories fueling an entire city and keeping it alive. This is because there was a great war between Bevelle and Zanarkand, two enormous cities, and one almost overpowered the other. To prevent that, a man named Yevon gathered his people and used them the summon the city, as well as to create Sin.

Each Aeon in this shop will have a different Fayth. You're welcome to describe the Fayth that is behind your Aeon, but you will not be able to roleplay them. (Fayth are simply Spirans who are in the eternal slumber; so, a Fayth could be a little girl, and you could describe her personality and history, but you may not RP her except with special shop permission.) Though the Fayth are many and varied, their dreams manifest in similar shapes, and thus we have the "breeds" of Aeons.

The life cycle of Aeons is pyrefly, Kalpa, Aeon.

Pyrefly: The pyreflies are collecting according to a Fayth's dream and forming an Aeon.

Kalpa: The pyreflies have formed the Aeon, but it is small and weak; the Fayth must dream more for it to gain strength necessary to aid Summoners.

Aeon: The dream of the Fayth has been realized. Fully grown and strong, the Aeon may fight alongside a Summoner.

Are these pets RP required?

Nope, but it's totally encouraged. Hey, the shop owner is even going to get in on this. =D Everything is more fun when you RP.

Is same sex breeding allowed?

Yes, because they aren't breeding sexually, but rather through... meshing of pyreflies and whatnot. So, any two adult Aeons may breed.

Can I roleplay as my Aeon?

Yes! Most of your RP will take place on the Farplane if you're RPing your Aeon, but it's perfectly acceptable to RP them in Spira as well. Just remember that only in very rare and dire cases with an Aeon take the form of their Fayth (ie staff events only) so when you RP them in Spira, they need to have been summoned OR be appearing in a temple, where they will grant their power to their Summoner to the first time.

Can I roleplay as my Summoner?

Yes! That is highly encouraged. We'll only see one half of the story if only RP the Aeons. You'll have to create a Summoner when you get your first Aeon anyhow, so why not have fun?

Can I roleplay as a Guardian?

You certainly may! While the Guardians can't summon any Aeons (obviously) they are very essential for each Summoner's quest. Heck, you can RP Guardians for other Summoners if you want! I think that would be the most fun; getting together with a couple friends and making a Guardian each for each other's Summoner.

Am I allowed to RP canon characters, like Tidus and Yuna?

No. This shop is set barely forty years after Yunalesca's Summoning, so those characters aren't even a sparkle in anyone's eye. It's all OCs here, folks.

Okay, can I RP Paine's great-great-greatdajkfhhk grandfather?

Again, no, because that's just... silly and confusing. No ties to canon characters, even though the world is set in Spira!

Can Al Bhed be Summoners?

Nope! They don't believe in that sort of thing, and they're still living in the desert, peacefully and happily ignoring everyone else.

Can Al Bhed be Guardians?

Very, very, very, very rarely. You must obtain permission by PMing the High Summoner, and explaining why your characters needs to be an Al Bhed aside from just a regular Spiran.

Can my character be from Dream Zanarkand?

... no. Just be a normal, living Spiran like everyone else! D=
