Revajk was the greatest king in all of recorded history, and Athaeon reached an undeniable golden age under his rule. He was loved by everyone, as were his wife and daughter. Princess Kyissa has just come of age, and King Revajk is throwing a big party to celebrate. Then the Shadow Guard came. Led by Revajk's wife, They overthrew the King before anyone knew what had happened. Now, a band of adventurers must smuggle Princess Kyissa off the continent, before the newly crowned Empress Lysanda can find and kill her. Are your skills up to the challenge?

The RP would start the night of the Coup, With the mercs getting Kyissa out of the capital city. I'll be happy to answer any questions you might have.

Races:

Humans: Humans spend their lives as farmers and warriors, constantly at war with each other over Trader's Straight. They posses no special technology, but are, in contrast, able to use the heaviest weapons and armor.

If you play as a Human:

You are born and raised in The Human Realm
You are, as of the RP, between the ages of 20 and 60
You are able to see in standard lighting

Vonari: Vonari live in the majestic crystal spires found on the edges of the polar regions. They are physically blind, but are so attuned to the Magic that they do not need their eyes. They produce plans and materials for many of the wonderous tools used across Athæon.

If you play as a Vonari:

You are born and raised in the Vonari Spires
You are, as of the RP, between the ages of 30 and 290
You are able to see at any light level
You customarily wear a blindfold that covers your eyes.

Keenon: Keenon live in various caves and chasms in Athæon. They are the master craftsmen of the world, able to craft anything the Vonari ask them to. They are albinos, and require heavy clothing when they venture to the surface. They also must wear darkened goggles when in the sunlight, as their eyes are only accustomed to the light emited by the Glowing Stones utilized as a lightsource.

If you play a Keenon:

You are born and raised in the Great Chasm.
You are, as of the RP, between the ages of 20 and 80
You are able to see in the dark, unaided.

Gorah: The Gorah race originated in the Floating Chasm found in the western region of the Eastern Continent. They create many floating cities out of the levitating rocks native to the Chasm. They bond at a young age with some form of flying beast, which they use as a mount

You are born and raised in the Floating City of the Chasm
You are, as of the RP, between the ages of 18 and 40.
Your familiar is able to fly

[ApocalypticXWay]

If I wanted to be a Gorah, would I include a seperate Character Sheet for my familiar? Name and a picture?

[Echoes of Old]

Sorry, I forgot to edit that part. A good deal of this is copy/pasted from the archives, and it was for a different plot line. No you do NOT have to create a CS for your familiar

[Dannyel]

So I can come up with a better background, do the adventurers know each other going in? Are we a merry or not-so-merry band of adventures? Or were we hired via a third party and are meeting each other for the first time here?

And do you want the CS here in the thread or do you want us to PM it to you?

[Echoes of Old]

We're working guard duty at the birthday party. I'm the head of security, and would have hired you, so you will know me to a small extent. Otherwise, you're all complete strangers. (UNLESS you and another player decide you want to do otherwise.) And either is good. I'll be posting them in the OP, so if you want them to remain private, please say so.

[Dannyel]

Do the Vonari have vestigial eyes? I mean, eye color seems rather unimportant for them.

Edit: And they can use magic right? Just want to make sure I'm interpreting that properly.

[Echoes of Old]

If it doesnt apply to your character, just mark N/A. I mean, Hair Color isn't useful to bald people, but it's still on there. :P

[Dannyel]

Name: Isaura
Race: Vonari
Age: 67

Build: Tall and skinny, not shapely or curvaceous.
Hair Color: Dark black, tied up in long braid.
Eye Color: N/A

Personality: She is very serious, though not adverse to humor, in a drier, sarcastic way. Rarely laughs, but often smirks. Rather non-confrontational, prefers to hang in the background until the fight is inevitable.
Fighting Style: She fights with a combination of magic and light weapons. She favors quick and deadly attacks, using magic to paralyze and mezz opponents.
Background: WIP

Here's basic character sheet, minus the backstory which I'm working on. May add a more detailed appearance as well. Let me know if I get anything wrong regarding the Vonari lore.

[Echoes of Old]

Keep in mind that'll be one hell of a sloppy braid, unless someone did it for her. xP

And yes, I just saw your magic question. They are indeed the wizards of Athaeon

Keep in mind that'll be one hell of a sloppy braid, unless someone did it for her. xP

You can do braids mostly by feel, btw, especially long single braids. :P
