I need some practice running RPs, last one I ran was with fnog and some friends outside of the site... so I think, when miss Ari's done with hers, I'm gonna give it a shot. Anyone interested?
Long ago, for reasons unknown, the kingdom of Felrein was lifted from the face of the earth. No, it wasn't destroyed; it was, quite literally, lifted up off the earth. The castle and surrounding city are now a floating island in the clouds, unreachable by all but those of magical inclination. ...that and the breeders of pegasi.
Unfortunately, the kingdom of Felrein was a very corrupt kingdom. A very strong underworld maintained its presence in the city throughout the years; even after the kingdom was lifted, the black market remained. It simply moved further underground, into the broken sewer passages and underground caves in the island it floats on. Since the pipes often lead to the air, the black marketeers (under the tight rein of the ringleaders, the Big Five) have set up a rather profitable trade with the continents below. Their trade makes such hard-to-get items as silk, gemstones, sugar, salt, and wood, available for next-to-nothing in the black market; this monopoly they've established threatens to put the landed upper-class merchants out of business. The merchants have banded together and put out a call for mercenaries, to expose the black marketeers. Anyone who can bring them to justice, either by locating the Big Five's hideout or bringing them in, dead or alive, will be rewarded handsomely by the disgruntled merchants. Anyone interested may inquire at the house of a certain Darren Wilde, a diamond merchant living on South Street.

Description of fighting style: Fights using mostly nature and occasionally the bow and long sword
Background: Half-elf parents get chased out of village by angry mob and are presumed to be dead. Baby Jade was found by a mother dragon who raised her and taught her to be a druid and the ways of the forest. As a young girl she was strong with magic and was taught not only offensive and defensive spells but also healer spells. From protecting her "adopted" family she has gotten a long sword and a bow from invaders and enjoys practicing with them and beefing up her skills and strength. Jade loves animals and when she came of age to leave the family, her little “sister” wanted to come with her so her mother entrusted her with raising her little dragon sibling (whose name is Verisse). She feels that cities are what made the villager hate her half-elf family; the society says that half-elves are evil and apparently no one in a village questions it.

Sure, that works! Hm, druid. Haven't seen anyone use a druid in awhile.
...actually, hun, it kinda doesn't, in retrospect... my campaign is all in a city. How do you explain your druid being there?

Name : Aleu Wolfe (Every time I look at that, I think "Waffle") Race : Highly confusing. Let's make her an elf. Class : Fighter/Exorcist Weapon/Spell list : She fights with a katana; nothing special about the sword. Her spells are nearly all buffs with
a few anti-demon spells in the mix.
Spells
Most of her "spells" are just combat techs which will appear throughout the rp. Actual spells will be listed here.
- Virtue : The bog-standard light-hits-the-bad-guy attack.
- Teleportation : Short-range only, no more than twenty or thirty yards at a time.
- Holy Cross : A ranged attack; it's a two-part slash that forms a cross of light that moves forward until it hits
something.
- Angel Feathers : The only type of shapeshifting that Aleu can do with any proficiency, this gives her wings for a
few minutes. Nothing else, really.
♫Ougis (Uber death in a little package)♫
- Magnus Exorcimus : It's ownage that looks pretty. Only usable as a duet with Kapu.
- Basilica : A purely defensive spell; creates a 10 cubic foot box of solid light that cannot be penetrated.
Description of fighting style : Gauge their strength carefully; don't go Magnus on every little thing that comes your
way. Background : Compared to alot of other adventurers, her life's been pretty okay. Her family didn't die in a tragic accident at a young age and she didn't swear revenge and go out and lop off heads. She just lived with her family, Kapu, her brother, Silver, her mother, Amaroq, her father, and countless other siblings none of whom I care to remember at the moment (except for Kodi).
Name : Kapugen Wolfe Race : Our loveable shapeshifter. Class : Spellcaster Weapon/Spell list : This is going to be hard...
Weapons : Anything racial, claws, talons, BEAK (why is that capped?) ect ect...
Spells : Kapu loses all normal spells when shapeshifted (outside of wolf/human form), but learns racial spells
appropriate for his new form.
Normal spells :
Shapeshift : His most basic ability; assume the form of a creature that is familiar to him. Which is alot, taking into
account the number of places that Aleu's dragged him. Familiarity is having seen said creature in physical reality
or have an extensive enough knowledge of said creature to imagine an accurate image of its form.
Elemental Bolts : Fires off a series of attacks which manifest themselves in many different ways (("He's shooting
flaming urinals at us! Run~!")) and can be charged with the different elements.
Prestigitation : Just for versitality; this gives him a little bit of influence over most objects.
♫Ougis♫
- Magnus Exorcimus : Same as Aleu's.
- Ganbantein : Creates a 5 cubic foot area where everything inside is torn to shreds. Very, very messy. Also dispels all magical effects in that area.
Description of fighting style : Shapeshift and blast 'em to bits. Stay out of harm's way; use magic whenever
possible. Background : Compared to alot of other adventurers, his life's been pretty okay. His family didn't die in a tragic accident at a young age and he didn't swear revenge and go out and lop off heads. He stayed home and lopped off heads. Kapu's the little cynic of the group; he's ready with a sarcastic (usually not very funny) remark to anything and everything, and his right ear is especially tender. Guess why.

Post by Jukka Canola on Apr 17, 2006 20:02:41 GMT -6
The Canola will have another stab at RPing!!!
Name: Jukka Canola, age 15.
Race: human
Class: lightweight swordmaster
Weapon/Spell list: -carries two lightweight swords
Description of fighting style: extremely fast. carries lightweight weapons to ensure quickness. uses two swords at the same time. is also very agile and can easily scale walls/climb surfaces.
Background: Jukka was abandoned as a baby, but was found and raised by an expert swordsman. He remembers nothing of hsi parents, just that they abandoned him. His "father" who found and raised him fell ill, and Jukka is going to go on the quest to try to earn money to buy a cure.
Appearance: shaggy, straight black hair. wears long black cloak, opened in the front that shows a plain grey shirt, and black pants and boots.

Name: Elaviel Seimarwen Race: Elf Age: Looks about 17 Class: She's quite well-rounded, actually. Something along the lines of a fighter/ summoner. Weapon/Spell list: Energize: Because the elf doesn't have much in the way of physical strength and relies on agile speed and pure, lethal skill, she can use this short spell to enhance her blows. This stat boost lasts only a short amount of time. Summon bow and arrow: Yep, she's too lazy to carry her own set with her. She has an unlimited supply of arrows, as long as she can manage to summon them. This weapon is fused with the element of light and can pierce nearly any sort of armor. Summon: Elaviel has befriended two beast spirits she can actually summon to the field in her defense. Rikayu, the silver wolf and Imber, the golden dragon. An attack from either of them is absolutely devastating, but she can only summon one at a time and only when she truly needs the aid. Heaven's gift: Because she was once a holy angel, she used to have the ability to fly above the clouds. But after being cursed and falling from the sky, her feathery, white wings disappeared into nothingness. Now, she can only use them temporarily as a gift from her ancestors after offering a short prayer. Trial by light: A fairly complicated spell which takes quite a few minutes to chant. But rest assured, the results are worth it in a tight situation. Basically, this spell takes an opponent's energy and turns it against them. If the spirit is pure at heart, then the victim will be released and purified of all evils within him. However, if the enemy is evil and wicked, the spell will destroy him. It's the ideal technique to use when someone is possessed. Of course, this is a fatiguing spell for both the chanter and the victim, and Elaviel won't be able to do much to defend herself afterwards. Description of fighting style: One thing you probably should know is Elaviel is an extremely evasive fighter; she lacks the strength and endurance to take blows, though she has the speed and agility to dodge them. So basically, if you land a few good attacks, she's out of there. On the other hand, you're going to have a heck of a time actually hitting her-- she's not going to stand still for you. Elaviel prefers to use her hand and feet in a martial arts style as opposed to using weapons (Although yes, she likes to use her magic bow and arrows too.) Having little stamina, she can't afford to participate in a long-standing battle, so over the years, she has perfected her skills; she has an extremely high critical-hit average. Appearance: Elaviel, being quite the vain type of person she is, likes to dress accordingly in all sorts of styles and fashions. Of course, she also prefers to flaunt her natural beauty and doesn't get too carried away with her clothing. She will wear just about anything and everything that suits her purposes. If this elf has to go on a raid at night, she'll make a ninja outfit look spiffy; if she has to go hunting for gold in the mines, you bet she'll find a way to look good doing just that. Dresses, uniforms, cloaks and boots... you name it, she's got it. And yes, she loves to flirt with guys. The elf has sleek, blue-black hair that runs down past her shoulder and amazingly clear, blue eyes. For some reason, she is awfully fond of Japanese-styled clothing and is mostly likely always wearing something along those lines. Standing at about 5' 8", she is somewhat short for one of her race. However, if you see her fight, you'll see that size doesn't matter much against her-- she uses it to her own advantage. Personality: Although Elaviel loves her sense of style, she is also a tree-hugger. She cares deeply for animals and the forest where she was born and will do anything to protect her home. It's difficult for her to refuse others in need of aid, which often keeps the elf very busy, running errands and whatnot. Also, Elaviel tends to be somewhat of a reckless person-- she doesn't think before she acts and will accomplish most goals on first instinct. Besides that minor setback, she is determined and believes that if you want anything done, you'll have to do it yourself. Not exactly the most patient of people, she thinks on her feet and can normally get herself out any situation. The elf highly dislikes arrogant and roostery people, who believe they are better than the rest of the world. Even though she likes to show-off in her own way, she's actually quite the modest person. Irony, no? Well, that's what her life it filled with; simple irony. Yet, she likes that. It would be a boring world if everything went nicely, wouldn't it? Background: To make a long story short, her mother (Virawiel Seimarwen) and father (Llullar Seimarwen) were both holy guardians, who served the high Gods and Goddesses in heaven. With a stroke of misfortune and betrayal, the heavenly realm was attacked and Elaviel was thrown from the sky and cursed, losing her pure, white wings. By then, she was already full grown and could take care of herself... though she would have a heck of a difficult time regaining her stature as an angel. In the midst of it all, she had enjoyed her carefree life on earth so much, that she had forgotten her holy task defending the Holy realm. Will she ever return? Or will she be stuck as an earth-dweller forever? Her only hope of returning lies in the will and wit of her half-brother, Kaisa. He only wishes the best for his younger sister, but is he willing to give up her company on earth to allow her to take her place in the heavenly balance? Elaviel is the only family he's seen in quite a while, after his mother left to complete her task as a guardian and his father died. What will Kaisa choose to do?

Five characters. That's as much as I'm going to take... I understand Presea is busy, she can PM me her character, but she, Jukka, Fnoggles, miss Jade, Ari, and Aleu (Nudge..?) are all I'm going to take for this campaign. Fnoggie dear, could you lock this thread please?
