| − | '''Charoum''' is one of the many knights who crashed onto [[Cradle]] in the pioneer days making his knowledge of the planet more reliable than others. His silence sometimes puzzles other knights but his generosity, kindness, techniques and courage make him known as a guardian of the [[Clockworks]]. He prefers bigger, heavier swords but has liking to the sport of ''fencing'' somewhat. It has been heard he has been seen sometimes wearing a western styled armor and mighty guns to replace his big, bulky swords.

| − | I was in my dorm snoozing away from a long day of training on the ''Skylark'' when knights were still in training and being sent out to explore the unknown patches of space. Everything was by far going according to plan, but... The Skylark was pulled into the gravity field of an unknown planet. When I heard the sirens going of everyone was in a panic, bolts and gears flying off machinery and parts of the ship already being torn apart from the atmosphere. Every single knight was sent into escape pods, where they were latched tightly shut and crashed down towards the planet to set coordinates. I saw all of this happen in a blink of an eye while being shoved into that sorry excuse for an escape pod.

Stunned in the amazement of the lush green outskirts of the environment I stood and watched the wind blow the leaves from the spiraling trees. In my possession were the needed [[equipment]] for any knight sent off to explore, armor for protection and weapons to get through [[Monsters|obstacles]]. I was startled by the sound of a knight on my receiver, "Hello there! I just got the automatic distress signal sent off by the escape pod! I'm the Rescue Agent. Others crashed here earlier and we built a [[Rescue Camp|rescue camp]] for when others arrive, but be cautious of native creatures on your path, they can be testy!".

| − | On my first steps I encountered the strange creatures coming from the bushes. [[Jelly#Jelly_Cube|Pink jelly like cubes]] wobbled out of the shadows, they seemed very hostile in nature. My sword went through them without haste leaving their [[Gel Core|cores]] and treasure behind. Continuing on I found more odd creatures. [[Chromalisk#Chromalisk|Small whelping lizard-like monsters]] that seemed to walk around with harmless eyes. I approached one slowly only to be knocked senseless with it's extended tongue. Now knowing this creature is just as dangerous as the first I charged my equipped gun only to witness the green fellow faint from the bursts of energy of my gun.

I found the entrance to the campsite and a few flares on the ground to lead my way. Walking up the steps I saw familiar faces and ''bruised faces''. I was greeted by a friend, [[Greta]]. "Charoum!" She said in delight. "I'm glad to see your alive and unharmed". Greta gave me all the information I needed to know. Apparently the planet I was standing on was known as "Cradle" and was inhabited by an intelligent race of people that we call [[Strangers]] but, to them we're the strangers in this situation! They are kind, peaceful people that know everything there is to know about the planet. I began learning more and more each day from them.

| − | In time I was finally introduced to the elevator leading down to the world underneath the planet known as the Clockworks. The path where the elevator would go would then lead me to the town where most of the Strangers roamed for most knights would be called [[Haven]]. From the second I stepped on the cold flooring of the elevator I was shaking in what seemed like excitement more than fear. As I went down I readied my weapons and shield for whatever came at me. I stepped off the platform safe and sound, but in the time of walking my way to the elevator going up to Haven there was more of those Jelly Cubes in my way. Easily I slashed them into clear pink liquid. I encountered a new foe in one of the rooms in the mapped area. It seemed to be a [[Zombie#Dust Zombie|zombie]] of some sort but whatever it was slowly dragging near me with jagged, boney hands. I probably shouldn't have hesitated to attack, the zombie's body lunged at me with great force and latched to my head like a [http://metroid.wikia.com/wiki/Metroid_%28species%29 Metroid!] Frantically, I swung my sword around to shake him off of my head. I struck his body with three hits until he broke to pieces. Feeling tired from all of that spinning I rested up a bit. Unluckily he had friends with him that found me. I sighed and charged my sword to slash them for an all around attack. All of their bones cracked and turned to dust before me. "What's with these creatures?" I thought to myself approaching the elevator. Before I stepped onto the platform I looked back at the landscape of the wondrous clockworks. I wanted to know who built this underground world of spinning machinery.
