A question, is there a such thing as innate magical abilities, like before the celestial bond? I see on the celestial bond section it says that powers are gained after that has gone through, but a few other bits confuse me. It says that the bond was created by an archmage, so that means there's already magic without the bond. And the part about some magic being used for fishing and agriculture, I just can't see a mage and a battle-toned knight employed in the fishery business. Is that magic something you're born with or something learned over time?

I'm asking this because my idea for the character I want to play as is that he was born with magical abilities, albeit uncontrollable and wild, which causes his mother to hide him away in fear of something happening. And then maybe he goes to the school and makes the celestial bond to try and learn control over it all. That's just a bit of it, but if this is illogical I'm all up for going for a different background, I just wanted to run this by here before I wrote another bio up.

Well that screams "Look at me i'm special", but yea, a character can have magical abilities pre-ritual, but I did express my disdain for it. The thing about magic being used for non-war purposes is just an idea, I mean, it isn't war all the time.

By the way, the reason the other dorms got filled up is because they didn't know how many students there was going to be, AKA, your the first students at this school. ever.

Sauron, I am officially referring to you as "Lord and master of walls of text." That was amazing, but long. I am guessing you often RP in advanced?

I join anything which seems interesting.
I am apparently a master, cool.
Oh, and a lord at the same time.
I think I made an impression.

Knight
Name: Agmund Skaldjur
Age: 18
Gender: Male

Appearance: Agmund stands at 5'11 and 175 Ibs in a tall and thin, but muscular frame. Typically he has his jet-black, messy mop of hair uncombed/unbrushed giving him a perpetual 'bed-head' look, but unusually he keeps the sides of his hair trimmed close to his head. He has dark-brown eyes with light freckles across the bridge of his nose and his cheeks. He also has a small mole on his left cheek and is usually seen with a bright and goofy grin or smile on his face...

Disabilities: Sensitivity to bright lights and he doesn't have the best of memory...
Equipment: For his armor he has thin and small plate armor protecting his vital organs and joints with thin
leather clothing underneath. For his weapons he has a triangular Heater Shield and Roman-like gladius with a center cut in the blade. He also carries a quiver of arrows and small recurve bow along with his sword and shield.

History: Agmund was raised in a small, isolated village in the Northern Mountains as an only child to a hunter and huntress pair. Growing up in a quiet and nurturing environment, he longed to learn more of the world and his adventurous spirit yearned to serve a greater cause for noble purposes. Together with his childhood friend 'Hermie' and with his parents' blessings, he left the village once of age to seek proper instruction and training before enlisting into the military.

Paired with: Hermyn Nordlagg
Emotional bond description: Childhood Friend
Artifact(Knight only): "Cross of Flagellants"
Artifact description/pic: A ashen, wooden inverted cross...

I hope this third character of mine is acceptable.
Mage

Name:
Hermyn Nordlagg.

Age:
18.

Gender:
Male.

Appearance:
A slim and tall man, snow white hair and little facial hear to speak of. His eyes are, however, what defines him as a none-native: They are orange with a hint of yellow. Whilst he is slim and he looks like he's hardly eaten he is also quite enduring, being able to keep up with people and maybe even tiring some much stronger opponents through prolonged combat.

Personality:
A man of tactics, but with a great smile, he, much like his best friend, seeks to join the military and maintain a career within it as a magician within the royal ranks. He origins from a desolate village in the snowy mountains, but he is only a third generation inhabitant. Whilst his father and sister are much different and unsupporting of his desire to join the ranks he is respectful for their opinion and concerns. He is an undestanding figure, but still knows what he wants, even if he is a little shy about it. Other than that he is the typical villager of a village put deep in the snowy mountains.

Disabilities:
Not really a disability in itself, however he is rather unable, or unwilling to sacrifice others, no matter for what reason or purpose. He is hard on mistakes and schools himself whenever he's able. Because of this he rather take the harder route than the easier and less risky one, if it holds a greater chance of survival for all.

Equipment:
Due to Hermyn's deep wishes to join the military, he is clad in well kept and maintained hand-me-downs from the time when his grandfather was part of the military as a magician, because to this Hermyn is clad in battle magiae's armor, resistant but also durable.

History:
Hermyn is a third generation immigrant to these lands, but he does not look or sound different from those of his neighbors in the village. His upbringing was nothing special except the fact that he lived in quite the unique land on top of a snowy mountain far away from anything of significance.

As a person who lived so far from everything, religion never caught up to them and never played a big role in any of Hermyn's relatives lives.

Out of seemingly nowhere he met with a great friend when he was young. They became bonded with through friendship and it never really loosened, they would share the same dreams and the same desires, the desire to do good for their country.
They were two sides of a coin, however they were close for that reason. The only reason they arrived at the academy is so that they could enhance their respective skills, and through that they are now here.

Paired with:
Agmund Skaldjur - Knight.

Emotional bond description:
A bond of long and never breaking friendship.

Preferred element:
Earth - A great situational and tactical magic which he uses to shape the terrain to his liking.
Fire - As an offensive ability fire is almost unrivaled with it's adaptability.

Casting style:
Long-cast offensive

Familiar:
The Serpent.

Familiar species and description/pic:
A decieving snake, one which can crawl invisibly and pop up whenever one least expects it. ''The snake is smart'' Someone said in his childhood and he had believed it ever after. It decieves, it is a great predator and still is because of it's ability to lie. Hermyn's snake is a sort of intelligence gatherer, but can also act as a mobile trap using it's immobalizing poisons.

Other:
N/A.

I'm sorry, but honestly, I cannot bend my own rules just because you are great at walls of text. Maximum of 2 characters per person.

Harin, could you please explain what the use of your artifact is? also, your character seems a bit over equipped. He doesn't need to bring an entire arsenal to a school that is relatively safe. You also seemed to have removed Personality. That is not optional. You can keep it basic, but you can't remove it completely

So would you be against me using a history such as that? The character wouldn't have any training or anything of the such, and wouldn't be any different in skill than other students, but if you're against it I'm all for changing it up and doing a different bio.

Sauron, he never said he would have training.

Heres my policy- If you can make a good CS that impresses me, that makes that which I dislike work, then go ahead. Don't worry, I have already accepted 2 Characters that incorporated the elements that I hate.

Very humble.

Also Rider why not just play a bugman? You could have the belt as your artifact.
