The Zodiac Balance

Story:
There has always been the battle of good and evil, of creation and distraction, even black and white. Always, always there are two sides of that coin and of that battle. What no one knows or what no one realizes is that there is more to it than just the force from either of the two. There is always the one in the middle, the gray area, and as it will be called in this thread, the Zodiac Balance.

Hard as it is to accept, there cannot be good without the evil, no day without the night, no pleasure without the pain... and so there is the secret group who maintains this delicate balance. They are called the Zodiac. They stay firmly between those who destroy-the Null balance, who believe that nothingness is the perfect state of equilibrium, and the Neo balance who creates and fills everything to the brim and more.

Embark on an adventure as one of the Zodiac, as they are called forth to keep the balance in a world called Earth, as humans continue to drive the Enkanto into the abyss.

The Zodiac has been summoned in Earth. The humans have driven too many creatures, the Enkanto or Enchanted, into hiding or worse, extinction. There are less and less fairies, sprites, spirits and creatures in this world. The scales have been tipped too much into creation for the humans and into destruction for the Enkanto. Once the scales reach too far, Earth will fall.

Characters:
I will need people to fill up at least five of the twelve zodiacs. There are a multitude of worlds, and so it follows that we have also a multitude of creatures. You are free to create any such creature and world as long as he or she or it does not become too powerful. One thing that is needed of these characters is the fact that they are outcasts or people with no alliances. These creatures, for whatever reason have severed ties with anyone and everyone. This is needed for them to be able to perform the duties of a Zodiac. They should be able to destroy those who disturb the balance without remorse or more importantly, without hate.

These are the needed characters and the titles and an ability that is inherent to them. Choosing will be at first claim first own basis. I will claim Aquarius, and elryde claims Scorpio. Also closet monster claims libra. Besides all that claim away.

Leo the Kin of Beasts: One who understands all animals or creatures in all the worlds.
Virgo the Untainted: One who reverts all corrupted creatures to original state. (The Null Balance corrupts them, drives them to destroy)
Scorpio the Death Knight: One who serves as the executioner or punisher. Permanent death that disables Rebirth.
Aries the White Knight:One who can hold the other to their word. Once a verbal agreement between them has happened, you cannot break it. Breaking it would mean death.
Sagittarius the Seer: One who sees through all disguises
Aquarius the Life Bearer: One who heals all wounds
Pisces the Saviour: One who can revive a race by resurecting a "worthy" pair.
Capricorn the Tempter: One who can create illusions of ones innermost desires
Gemini the Mimic: One who can copy perfectly, body and mind.
Taurus the Warden: Once captured by him or her, there can be no escape unless he or she lets the creature go.
Cancer the Shield Bearer: One who creates unpenetrable barriers
Libra of the Balance: Secret

Still no other biters? C'mon guys, I know you want to.

Here is my character sheet. It's gonna be the first time I'll be using her so I'm excited and nervous at the same time.

Name: Atalantea
Age and Earth Equivalent: unknown but looks 27
Zodiac: Aquarius
Sex: Female
World Origin: Erien
Race: Amihan (winged creatures) They are the ones who transition life, they are there during births and deaths of the other dwellers of the world. They are almost never seen though.
Description: Looks mostly human only she has white feather wings and shifting eye color and pointed ears.
Build: Slim
Eyes: Usually silver or storm cloud gray but it reflects the color of the surroundings. Like water.
Skin: Alabster white
Hair: Long, knee length hair that curls at the end. It is platinum blonde.
Height: Five foot eleven
Weight: None. She is weightless.
Appendages: Wings and no tail.
Clothes: An airy and fitted silver-white dress that mimics the color of her surroundings. An off shoulder blouse with slit sleeves that is gathered in a cuff-glove like thing at the wrist. It is attached with a ring on either middle fingers and vees into the wrists. Her back is completely covered. Her abdomen is shown. The blouse extends into a skirt that reaches her ankles. The dress is slit on either side from mid thigh down. She doesn’t have shoes.
Creature background: This woman fell in love with a Ragat, a merman. She ended up severing ties with both her race and theirs. She is now in the middle. She has no wings but she floats everywhere. She always looks like she’s underwater. She glides everywhere.
Her dove wings are hurt and melted by salt water and strengthened by the sun. They are retractable,
Personality: This woman is emo, there is always a certain melancholic look in her eyes. She is painfully realistic, very blunt and frank about everything. She hates pretenses and deceit. She comes from an aristocratic family and so is a snob without knowing it. She can be humorous in a very very sarcastic way.

Ooops. I forgot Sex. Indicate male or female. . Also say the build. Light, skinny, muscle stud, etc.

Name: Leigh
Age and Earth Equivalent: She doesn't know but she looks 25
Zodiac: Scorpio
Sex: Female
World Origin: doesn't know but it's most likely just Earth; woke up in England thus the accent
Race: Lycan -you all know what that is.
Description:
- human form: looks human except for her eyes and slightly pointed ears (that are not hairy in anyway)
- wolf form: white fur with a body of a great wolf (no human-like resemblance at all)
*transition is ala Blood and Chocolate human->enveloped in light that forms a->wolf
Build: Lithe
Eyes: Purple/Midnight
Skin: Pale
Hair: waist-length black hair
Height: 6'
Weight: doesn't care to know
Appendages: none :P
Clothes: black leather armor beneath a thin layer of white armor (she wears only her breastplate, greaves and vambraces --which are molded to her body like second skin) made of a metal stronger than tungsen or titanium but extremely flexible (something like that), all of which she wears beneath a black coat not cloak.
Creature background: found herself in the middle of nowhere in the plains of England. Barely remembers her past and gets only momentary lapses of clear memory -most of which involve blood on her hands and the sense of rightness. In England, she is cared for by a human female whom she came to consider as her mother. She carries no ties to any race because she had cut them off before she erased her own memory. She never killed while her human mother was alive though her strong sense of justice called strangely for death. She's a mercenary of sorts. She doesn't kill for coin and kills only those who deserve death.
Personality: practical and a bit obsessive-compulsive, she likes having things in order; detests deceit and can tell when someone was doing/thinking wrong due to her heightened animal senses. Scenting fear is her best and worst skill --best because she can immediately know your fear even when afar, worst because it excites her.
**wears a mask when she kills and never shows her face to those who would die by her hand just her eyes that reflected their deaths

Okay. I like it. But since you're an earthling, there is no such thing as purple eyes so midnight blue it is.

Anyway, I'll start the IC tomorrow and hopefully get more people in.

((hopefully this is all good? some of it I wasn't sure what you wanted))
Name: Cancia
Age and Earth Equivalent: Hard to say how old she looks, it can change, but, she's been around for, practically forever
Zodiac: Leo
World Origin: Was summoned, appearing in a city, no animals, creatures, just people, surrounded by concrete and steel.
Race: She's of her own race. She lives, connects with the animals around her, and her appearance, mood, abilities, are based on the existence and health of the life around her.
Description: As I said, this can change. On earth, especially in a city right now, she can appear as no more than a shadow, shaped like a beautiful girl. When in a world where the creatures are less stressed, more abundant, she would gain more substance, having auburn hair, green eyes, tall, near 6 feet, but skinny, maybe only 125 lbs.
Clothes: When in a more natural form, she wears a silk robe, natural colors, that seem to fade in and out as the robe moves.
Creature background: It seemed like for years Cancia ran from humans, other races that were destroying nature, eventually finding a forest where there were no people. She could live there with the animals, creatures, relax, and be healthy, that is, until she was summoned to earth, in order to fight the same thing she had been running from.
Personality: She is very calm, kind, also a very good leader, not because she is commanding, but because creatures, and people respect her, and she can lead without having to be commanding.
