Origins
Some speculate that the Likolo Libota was formed in Arcadia by a gang of air elementals that would escape their posts and run over roof and tree tops in an attempt to feel freedom. Now that they have made it to the real world, it is an exercise in remembrance, as well as a way to stay one step ahead of those who would try and deny them their freedom.
Joining
The Libota isn't your standard Motley. Calling it a motley at all would over-complicate the whole thing. The majority of those who consider themselves a part of Likolo Libota are followers of the Parkour Philosophy. All one needs to do in order to be considered a member of The Libota is to bring their freedom of movement wherever they go.
Non-Rivalry
The Libota does not collectively believe in competition and feels that any sort of official competition only serves to degrade the philosophy.
Esengo
Meaning Joy, this is a purely Lost contribution to the group philosophy. All practitioners agree that runs are neutral and not to be used as partisan exercises. This is to help keep violence to a minimum, and to allow the runners a chance to truly be free from any concerns that don't involve the terrain at hand. This has extended to a type of cease fire amongst antagonistic traceurs. While running as a group, everyone is at peace.
Practitioners
- Croak - Croak states that he learned Parkour before it had a name. He delights in bringing new people in to the philosophy whenever he can.
- Vesper - An airtouched with a violent streak, Vesper likes the opportunities that this hobby has brought her.
Pledge
"I promise to bring the philosophy with me, and to observe Esengo while on our runs. If I betray this pledge, may my limbs become clumsy, and may my art leave me. This I vow, until the season passes."
