    Grand Journey: Tales of Adventure (OOC)

    http://roleplayerguild.com/showthrea...Adventure-(IC) IC

    This will be a fantasy adventure rp that will revolve around traveling around and overcoming obstacles on our journeys. There will also be a plot that will begin to unfold along our paths leading to a dangerous organization that threatens what delicate peace there is. (so cliche)





    A brief history of the continent of Verbond:

    Elven history - The many elves of the land all have their own agendas, the dark elves normally keep to themselves and will occasionally venture out of their underworld like domain to enjoy the outside pleasures of the land. They are known to occasionally war with the dwarven race when their mines grow too big and breach the cave walls. The wood elves tend to be reclusive to other races, the tend to stay deep within dense forests and are avid hunters and trackers that are talented in taming wild creatures with ease. The high elves are said to be the noblest of all elves and thats a title that they wear proudly. Most disdain humans and "lesser races" whilst others find that trading with them can be most profitable. They've been known to war with humans which has lead to a deep seated hatred between the two races. There are other elves in the land that not much is known about. Orcs are said to be savage and brutal fighters, but there have been some who don't fall within that catagory, they have been known to war with the dwarves.

    Dwarven history - The dwarves tend to live close to the mountains, and with the emergence of humans have learned to trade and coexist with them. They are excellent in crafting in general and are capable warriors. They have been known to war with orcs, goblins, and the dark elves.

    Human history - Humans sailed from distant lands onto the continent of Kaart, they warred endlessly with the native elves for centuries, but now seem to have some peace. Their settlements and kingdoms quickly began to dot the land until they held the most cities and towns. Some kingdoms have integrated themselves with dwarven kingdoms making strong fortress cities and great trading towns. Most humans hate all kinds of elves due to their bloodied pasts.

    Furigo history - Furigos are beast type race. Most of the tribes avoids other races and are one with nature. They hunt to forge for the own food. They rarely trade with other races and they learned not to trust them. It is rare to see one because of their ability to transform. Depending on the area and tribe they could transform into goats foxes wolves etc. if you are curious about other races but rarely go because it is against tribe rules if they go to visit other races.

    These are just basic races if you can think of any other race that you would like to be then run it by me and I will be happy to approve of it.

    Factions that are known at this stage:

    Dragon busters - Epic warriors that wield large weapons as if they weigh nothing who hunt monsters around the world, their main hall is in the middle of the lake Aliyah falls and is said to be where they hold tournaments of epic proportions.

    There are several more that I have but not yet based in this continent...

    Assallya Kressair
    Race: Elf
    Faction: None
    Age: 89
    Sex: Female
    Skills: Dance, a few musical instruments, herbalism, poisons, brewing potions
    Magic: Assallya is skilled mainly in mental magics, charm spells, emotion control spells and some illusion. She has but one attack spell, that of the shocking grasp which is used only as a last resort.
    Inventory: A covered wagon that serves as her home. A jambiya dagger. Various ritual implements for minor summoning and bindings. A collection of exotic material daggers for killing supernatural beasts. (Gold, Silver, Wooden, Ivory, one blessed by a priest, etc...)
    History: Assallya was born on the edge of the Farrow forest and was kidnapped by Orcish slavers and sold in the markets of Veresh. Purchased by an affluent pasha, a prince of the criminal world, she served at his leisure for decades until she played the son against the father and escaped during the conflict. She has since wandered doing a bit of adventure but mostly travelling in her wagon selling trinkets, dancing at inns for coin and occasionally laying with men if the coin was good enough.
    Other: Courtesan, Witch, Storyteller, Dancer. Really, whatever earns a bit of coin.

    • Background/Origin
      Born to a mercenary and a warrioress, Reaper was trained immensely in combat. Once he figured he could make money killing people he became a world known assassin. He was always high in demand in his childhood killing many unwanted people. Until he had one contract to kill his parents. Sure, most people believe he could of denied the contract but the contract stated firmly if he didn't by his own means both of his parents would be hunted down like dogs and when caught would be put through immense torture. The same went for him. So he went to where his parents lived and killed them both while they were asleep. Quick and painless is how he did it. Once he completed the contract he found out he was fooled. Now he is on the run from every authority figure. As he was into hiding he began hunting down the man that fooled him. To this day he still searches.

    Name: Alistair Grey
    Race: Human (Some elvish blood)
    Faction: Mercenary
    Age: 23
    Sex: Male
    Appearance:


    In Armor


    Skills: Alistair is an experienced fighter. He is proficient with a blade, ax, crossbow, polearm as well as fist fighting. He has been told that he may have potential for magic as well but the skill hasn't awakened yet. All he can with magic is sense it. He is also an excellent rider.

    Inventory:
    -Weaponry
    • Bastard Sword (See pic)
    • Handax
    • Dagger
    • Light Crossbow
    • Cursed Sword

    -Misc
    • Plate Armor (see armor pic)
    • Light mail (see appearance pic)
    • Leather Backpack
    • Belt Quiver
    • 30 bolts
    • 4 Belt pouches
    • Extra set of clothes
    • World Map
    • Light Rations (Bread, Dried Beef, Oranges)
    • About 2 liter Waterskin
    • Whetstone
    • Insignia Necklace.


    History:

    Alistair was born a farmboy. He is an orphan and his adopted parents were farmers, making him work with the animals and the crops. He had a simple childhood though. He never knew his parents and for most of his toddler years he worked at the farm. He had few friends since he was born albino, often picked on but he paid it no mind.

    At the age of 16 during harvest time he had an odd sort of dream. A faintly familiar couple running away. Something chasing them. A cave. A sword. An overwhelming presence. When he woke up in the middle of the night he went out, riding his horse, Skinfaxe, in what seemed like a random direction but he came by the cave in his dream. He walked into the depths of the cave and it appeared that it had been a structure of some kind. He saw pottery and smooth walls until he came by an altar with something drapped on it by a dirty cloth with a familiar insignia, a Dragon curling around a sword, same as his necklace. When he took the cover off he saw a sword of no make any respectable blacksmith would create. It was unnerving and it gave out a smothering aura but he was compelled to take it. When he touched it it was as if hellfire was burning his palm but he couldn't let go and every vein in his body felt as if they were on fire. He screamed in pain and agony and he heard then a voice in his head, a deep ground shaking voice that said only one thing. "At last". After that day, his arm, from hand to elbow, looks as if it had been severely burned.

    When he returned home he was scolded and had to do extra hard work but he could hear the demon whispering things into his ear from time to time and maybe one or twice a week he'd be plagued by nightmares.

    When he came of age he left the farm and into the city to find work. He became a blacksmith's apprentice for a few months, learning basic smithing and how to effectively sharpen a weapon and he then became a mercenary. He joined a troop of them that usually escorted caravans and couriers, guarding them from bandits. He had started with simple chestplate and leather but he eventually got himself a full plate armor. But he has never used the cursed sword. Never wielded it even though he brings it with him. It still burns him and he feels deep and fierce power within it.

    The spirit within the sword was something that of a man who ascended into demonhood and is also Alistair's ancestor. He whispers into Alistair's ear, goating him into searching for the sister sword. The ancestor doesn't know where the blade is but he will feel it's presence.

    Alistair as a person is polite and has some sense of honor though he wouldn't lose any sleep if he would stab the enemy in the back. He has a problem with women however. He holds back when fighting women. He won't deny the strength of women or the fact that they can handle themselves but whenever he sees a woman in danger, he'll try and save her. He is also deeply angered when women and children are hurt or killed. Sexist, maybe but he feels the murder of women and children to be very wrong and just shouldn't happen in the world.

    Other:





    Name: CheeChee
    Race: Bolee
    Faction: Dwarven Kingdom
    Age: 7
    Sex: Genderless
    Appearance:

    Height: 3'9"

    Skills: CheeChee is a talented wizard. He knows simple cantrips, simple telekinesis and lighting up candles and the such. His spell focus is similar to the energy used with Magic Missile only much greater, matching a fireball spell. He can also do minor illusions. Nothing serious but under the right circumstances it could determine life or death. He can also enchant weapons minorly. Without the right tools and time, he can only make temporary enchantments. He is also an excellent baker and kind of a pickpocket. Not to mention he is exceptionally fast on his feet and stronger than he appears, able to swing a greatsword like any healthy human youth (though more awkwardly).

    Inventory:
    • Wizard Staff
    • Alchemy Equipment
    • Large loaf of spiced bread
    • Extra pair of shoes
    • Satchel
    • A Maul(compared to Sanya's size)



    History:

    Sanya is a Bolee. Something like a cousin of gnomes and dwarves but less known. They are long lived like elves and dwarves but they mature much faster. Bolee is like in his late teens. He is a very curious fellow, always poking his fingers into every new thing and more often than not the items that he fingers find their way into his pockets or satchel. He doesn't mean to steal and denies being a thief.

    Through his studies in magic, working at a blacksmith as an enchanter, he learned many languages, able to speak almost fluent common, elvish and even can speak Furgian but though struggles with it a little.

    CheeChee is a scatterbrain at times but he has no real concept of fear. Not that he is fearless he just rarely is afraid. Be it walking on a far off ledge or face to face with a Carrion Crawler. He sees everything as a fun adventure.

    He is loyal to the dwarves and gnomes.

    @WitchChild

    Please don't mention that again. Is there something wrong by making a character based off of another character? But i changed it so whatever.

    I couldn't help it. The character was a cardboard copy of Raistlin. Barely any difference.

    Not saying that you couldn't be him. I was just saying : / Nothing wrong with it.
