    Dragons

    ~Plot~
    After the death of king Soulirus (horrible name, i know) the entire kingdom has been thrown into a dark age, the successors to the throne started a war wich broke Aldbourne(another horrible name) into pieces.
    Aldbourne is now a dangerous place, in witch most are fighting for survival, and this is the tale of your adventures here.

    (Mediocre plot put together in 10 minutes, i will improve it as we move on, and also, i REALLY need some name suggestions)

    Rules:
    1)You must be active (i'd like 1 post a day, with a maximum of 3 days of inactivity)
    2)No G-modding(perfect characters, gods, etc.)/flat characters (with no personality at all)
    3)Gore and romance? Go ahead, just don't make it too detailed
    4)You may not control another character without their express permission for ANY reason!
    5)A main character cannot be killed unless they allow it.
    6)I do excpect acceptable grammar and post that contribute to the plot, development of the characters or bring details in teh fictional world.

    Character sheet:
    Name:
    Age:
    Physical description: (exact sizes are welcome)
    Bio: (try to flesh out the character's personality here)
    History:

    Alignments:
    -Manteisgar- a group of corrupt politicians who currently posses the throne
    -Cryfder- a small band of rebels who have a hard time deciding if they're bandits or liberators, thanks to their cunning leader they mananged to get hold of almost a quarter of the empire
    -Bradychu- the remenants of king Soulirus' army (that is still loyal to his principles that is), they are hated by the Manteisgar.
    -Drugaredd- a large religious group who has taken hold of most of the empire by declaring their leader as a demi-god (a bunch of insane bastards rambling about salvation)
    -More to come, and thank Nat for the awesome names.

    Name: Xaris Ekballoh

    ((His name ought to be pronounced 'Kh-aris', though 'Karis' is also valid. Incidentally, it's transliterated Koiné Greek - translated into English it means 'I dismiss Grace'))

    Age: 216

    Physical Description: When walking in human flesh, Xaris looks like a reasonably fit young man with short black hair. He has a liking for heavy leather jackets and cloaks with concealing hoods, preferring not to show himself too clearly to others; feeling that it would give too much away. He stands at 6'1 in height, with broad shoulders and a fairly well-built physique. When stripped, a tattoo of a holy symbol can be seen etched into his skin - stemming from just below his neck down to his crotch and covering the majority of his torso with embellishments. When in his natural form, Xaris is a medium-sized black, the holy symbol upon his chest visible (but just barely) on the slightly lighter grey scales of his stomach.

    Bio: Xaris is, most of the time, a fairly upbeat sort of person willing to comfort others and attempting to cheer them up. He is however a deeply mournful person once you get to know him, his religious convictions doing nothing to dissuade him from the view that he is an inherently corrupt being - this being the reason that he carved and subsequently inked the mark on his chest. He also has a tendency to fly into intense rages, usually when his religious views are mocked or else if someone or something he cares about is put in jeopardy. He is then an extremely loyal soul to say the least, with single mind and purpose.

    History: Xaris was until recently largely disinterested in draconic politics. He was fond of King Soulirus - Xaris having on occasion frequented the court and had, over time, become friends with the late King. However with the King's murder, he found himself caught in the middle of a whirling storm of rivalries and factional disputes. Throughout it all, he attempted to ignore personal feeling and simply support whomever would be the best candidate for the job. Yet over time, the lack of resolution made him bitter and jaded - now, he simply seeks to find whomever killed Soulirus and thereby take vengeance for his long lost friend whose legacy now lies shattered on the ever-changing political tides.

    Well, this was rushed. I suppose we will just make the clans names, history and most details now/along the way. So, the dragons closest to taking the throne will probably be smug, spoiled and corrupted little bastards. Mabye a rebellion led by a cunning leader with god knows what interests. Bandits, duh. Aaand they will all need names which i'm horrible at...

    My profile was rushed, or the setup was? :P

    (Also: Google translate is your friend. Welsh works very well for 'fantasy-ish' names... because that's what Tolkein loosely based Elvish off and therefore it will forever sound like a fantasy language to non-speakers... and by using it you can give everyone a fitting, somewhat meaningful name.)

    I'm thinking about joining. This would be my first Advanced RP, but I think I can manage a Dragon competently.
    Back, sorta. not gunna be involved in too many RPs for a while, still getting my writing skills back.

    My username for every other game is the same as here, mostly playing League of Legends right now

    I think the plot will hold together better if we keep it draconic-exclusive, however I'm willing to have other races involved provided that Xaris can eat and or burn them for the glory of the Holy Flame you think you can have it make sense.

    As for naming groups, sticking with my 'Welsh sounds awesome lol' theory...

    "Bradychu" ('Betrayed' - Potentially a Loyalist Group)
    "Manteisgar" ('Opportunist')
    "Cryfder" ('Strength')
    "Drugaredd" ('Mercy')
