And now here's my character, also with approval of Bosolai.

Name: Kerith
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 26
Eyes: Green
Hair: Black
Clothes: A grey shirt with tan pants and a pair of boots. When in battle, he simply slips a suit of chain mail over his shirt.
Height: 5’11”
Weight: 167
Magic: Enchanter
Favorite use of powers: Making his or other’s swords and armor better.
Focus: Close combat, after boosting the power of his weapons and armor.
Weapons: A claymore from Ba’Nia that is absolutely covered in runes. The runes are there to increase durability, but also to make it feel lighter and less cumbersome. Some of the runes also make it easier for him to enchant it.
Bio: Kerith was almost a victim of the darkness, but he somehow survived. Losing his entire family and home, Kerith felt lost in the world. Seeing others with lives that were rich with activity and a sense of comfort, Kerith especially felt uncomfortable. Not to mention the strange glances people would give him. Combine that with a very odd tattoo on his back that doesn’t seem to be there for any reason, and also a claymore that he doesn’t even remember how he got, and you have a very insecure individual.

That was six years ago, though. Kerith has long since secured his place as a pit fighter. While, most of the time, he didn’t have to kill others for people’s entertainment, he has killed people. Many people see him as emotionless now, and really only see him as a tool for people’s entertainment and betting money. He’s long since lost any purpose in life other than fighting, and doesn’t really see any hope for himself.

When his owners took him to Goraz for the next series of pit fights, Kerith woke up with a letter next to him saying he could help. This has given him a new sense of hope, something he thinks he’s never felt. Eager to help, Kerith wishes not only for freedom after he’s done, but a sense of redemption for the crimes he’s committed over the past six years. Escaping from his owners, Kerith is trying his beset to stay hidden until he can see who sent him this letter.
Mscl: Nothing

Ok, just about everything's set. Lioness is going to be co-GM for this, and I'm closing signups for main characters for anyone who hasn't already sent an application. If anyone wants to join as a support character, such as a friend of a main or merely someone who wants to defeat the darkness, those positions will be open until Lioness and I decide our hands are full.

I had already been approved as a main character, so here he is. Jeez, I've revived him twice already.

Name: Samoht Grebedahcs
Race: Dark Elf
Gender: Male
Age: 75 (looks 25)
Eyes: Crimson Red
Hair: Dark Black
Clothes: Wears casual pants and shirt. Has a strong silver chestplate, which is rarely seen because he constantly wears a black hooded cloak. Leather boots and leather gloves are almost always worn. He carries an amulet that holds a picture of his wife and son.
Height: 6' 2"
Weight: 210
Magic: Elementalist - Electric (I'm a zapper, baby!)
Favorite use of powers: Frying his opponents with large blasts of electricity.
Focus: Lightning magic. Since it's the only thing he focused on, he's going to be doing some fun things. (Channeling electricity through his sword, making lightning shields, conjuring creatures of lightning background, etc.)
Weapons: A jeweled longsword.
Bio: Samoht was once an assassin, and a damn good one. He only botched one job in his entire career, and it was the best thing to ever happen to him. He was sent to kill a politician. When he was about to kill him, the man's human daughter faced Samoht. Samoht was impressed, and infatuated. He would come and see the daughter as often as he could. Eventually, they married. They even had a son named Michael. Michael was a human/dark elf hybrid, but was happy. Sadly, not everyone was. A rogue group of extremist High Elves despised the thought that a Dark Elf and a Human mated. One night, while Samoht was out on a job, the elves burned his house to the ground. When Samoht returned, he found his wife dying on the ground. He held her in his arms as she died. He found out that the elves had kidnapped his son, and he vowed revenge. He followed the group, and slaughtered them all. Except for the group leader. The leader took Michael and ran off. Samoht never found him. After that day, Samoht gave up his life of being an assassin, and focused on his magic abilities.

Approved, of course.

Name: Karnok De'Larnill
Race: Minotaur
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Eyes: Dark Brown
Hair: Jet Black and coarse
Clothes: A loin cloth, a Sash with a satchel, A belt with lots of pouches
Height: 7'5"
Weight: 400lbs
Magic: Conjurer
Favorite uses: Summon spirits of his anscestors.
Focus: A large Trident, made very thick, long and strong for him to use
Weapons:The aforementioned large trident, a minotaur long bow.

Bio: Karnok was a child born under a prophetic star. He was to be trained as a Shaman along with all the other children born in his clan in that same week. He excelled at bringing forth the spirits of his ancestors. However he was not selected as the next Village Shaman. When this happened he was put to work in the Fields like the rest of his family.

He knew this life was not meant for him however so he continued to practice his training in secret. He grew up and had a few loves and love losses. Though his life, other then his training, was not that different than any young Minotaur of the time. He got in fights and would win. He worked hard and helped his clan to make a living. Yet when he noticed things disappearing he began to get worried. He asked his ancestors what to do and they told him he must await the answers to come from outside of himself. When he received the letter from Ayden Leonsbane he knew it was what he had waited for. That it was indeed what he had been training for. He hoped that he could help to correct this great wrong in the world, and with the strength of his ancestors, put back those things that have been taken away.




Toast burner, You should probably add about 200 pounds to that. The wrestler Kane alone weighs 330lbs and hes 7 feet. Now taking into consideration the fact that, your a Minotaur. You should probably weigh more then him.

Mintaro, your character post should include the magic type, the favorite use of powers, and the bio. Only thing you need to leave out is the future plans for your story.

Yeah, not always a good idea to spoil something like that... =P

Sorry I couldn't bend on that one point Bosolai, I would've liked to participate, but I also couldn't just change that part of his personality and motivation, not without making him a different character altogether. :-/

Nevermind that peeps, I think me n' him worked something out.
Quote:
Name: Jen Kinze
Race: Kitsune
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Brown (fur)/Red (hair)
Clothes: Billowing cotton pants, of a dirty tanned color, and assorted pouches and bags. He wears no shoes, bands wrapped around his wrists, and nothing on his chest. His fur keeps that part warm well enough. He's been known to tie his hair back, but not often.
Height: 4'8"
Weight: 115 lbs. (in lean muscle)
Magic: Illusionist (a form of telepathy)
Favorite use of powers: To disguise himself as someone else for short periods of time; most useful when escaping and breaking in.
Focus: Agility, cunning, and a pair of daggers. Uses flamethrower to escape jams before a fight breaks out.
Weapons: Two small daggers; blunt, short, but sharp enough to cut skin. Less effective for killing as much as for defense. Also has a small, padded metal box, with which he can create a small stream of fire for a short time. This "flamethrower", as he calls it, is something he once... "borrowed" from a prominent scientist. He considered selling it until he realized he could put it to better use as a defensive tool...

Bio: The little-known and lesser-seen Kitsune (or in the slang, fox people) race is most known for producing some of the best thieves in the world. Formely of the mountainous areas, Jen migrated south and has begun to perfect his "profession" free from any guild, and has remained inconspicuous to the law. Although he never received any such letter from Ayden -- in fact, he's never heard of him -- he is always looking for an opportunity to make some more cash...

Unless we get on an elevator or something, I don't think it matters all that much. :p

But, if you say so, consider it done.

Default Ian Roberts

Here's my character! I'm co-GM (wait - you already know that), but my character is going to already be a member of the Dragon's Blood. Here goes:

--------------------------------------------------------

Name: Ian Roberts

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Age: 19

Eyes: Deep Blue

Hair: Dirty Blonde, long

Clothes: Wears fitted black pants and a loose emerald shirt. He also has a black jacket and boots.

Height: 5'11"

Weight: 154

Magic: Conjurer.

Focus: Using the creatures he conjures to fight (though he loves a fight himself too).

Weapons: A gilded bastard sword, a long knife in his right boot.

Bio: Ian was born to a loving mother, Patricia Roberts. His father, Lyon, was placed in an asylum for claiming things that were "insane." Patricia also saw these things but told no-one, for she wanted to raise Ian herself. Ian's father died due to the bad conditions of the asylum.

When Lyon died, Patricia decided she had to prove that her husband told the truth and told everyone what she knew for truth.

They burnt her at the stake for this.

Ian watched from an alleyway as his mother was killed, then fled the town. Ayden Leonsbane knew him for what he was and Ian joined the Dragon's Blood.

He has decided to make it his life's work to prove that what he sees is truth. He knows the world must be restored to glory before it is abolished.

--------------------------------------------------------

The roleplay will start pretty soon then, I think.

For the specifics of everyone's chapters, I'll send it to you a chapter in advance, cause thats when I'm gonna write it up so I don't get too far ahead of myself. So right now the only person with chapter specifics is chapter 2. After the first chapter (which shouldn't be too long), I'm gonna write up and send chapter 3.

Oh, and the first chapter is up. You can find it...here.
