The Fangs were fascinating to Jigano, a harsh environment of frozen beauty and lethal consequence that housed danger and treasure in unequal measure; far more the former than the latter, as he had discovered on his last foray into these icy peaks. He kept meaning to come back, but there was always something else that needed doing, or fixing, or learning, or recording back in what had become 'home' to him. Oliver's expedition was a welcome reason to set those other things aside for a time and come back to explore.
Besides, he was curious to see how the earnestly helpful young man would handle being a leader in his own right, in charge of where they would go and what they would do.
The bard had worn his Halo clothing; thinner wool underlayers from neck to toes and thick pants still bearing fur on the outside for his legs, with heavy boots lined with sheep's wool for his feet. His long tunic was heavy and thickly woven, sandwiched between more woolen sweaters all underneath a heavy coat purchased in Snowcloak. His thick cloak of white fur overlay it all, hood pulled up around his scarf-wrapped head, from which fox fur poked out as he shamelessly used his partial shift to gain a little more warmth. His backpack held water and some light trail rations, even after he'd left a sack of hearty potatoes for the guards at the portal, but he'd brought a coil of rope as well. He had a number of smaller items tucked into his pockets, including his glasses, everdry bed, scale, and sphere, and SoulKeeper hung from his belt in case they needed to go into any caves. Mostly, though, he carried his journal and a pencil already out and ready to begin recording as he joined Oliver and Oia'i'o. He gave the young man and woman an encouraging smile and a quiet greeting while they waited for the last of their party to arrive.
Jigano is bringing:
SoulKeeper | A magical lantern capable of housing lost souls of the departed. The lantern keeps them safe until such a time as they can be released to Ludo and Mort.
Broken Spectacles | These glasses can translate certain texts, however because of the damage they do not do so with any reliability. (OOC: Will translate one plot-related text per season)
Guardian Sphere | A small glass-like sphere (roughly 2" in diameter) that allows a portal guardian to innately sense where their counterparts are. The light within darkens the closer the ascended are to activating a new portal. When held by anyone else, the light dims and nothing happens.
Snake-Guardian Scale: A palm-sized opalescent scale from one of Rae's portal guardians. When used, it will take the holder from their current position into the portalling dimension regardless of where they are. Once it has been used, it will disappear.
Everdry Bed | A square of silk that transforms into a large, luxurious bed upon command; always warm and clean and never ever gets that wet spot during use (wink wink nudge nudge)
