Well it was either her, or the Spirit inhabiting a Golem with a Giant Axe and the Dark Spawn ninja who thought he was a Grey Warden.

Why not both? A spirit inhabiting a Dark Spawn ninja who goes around riding a Golem with a Giant Axe like a pony? That would be terrifying and confusing on so many levels.

It most certainly is not, though given what we have so far, I wonder if I should lean more toward slightly heavier armor, well that's something that can be added later actually. To give us a little more staying power. And Damn your avatar is so bubbly. :3

A little more staying power and a little less getting murdered right out the gate power. We have to save that for the joining!

Lucius and Khan, you are both accepted. Including my own this brings us up to 6 character sheets with a couple more likely on the way. I'll probably put the OOC up tomorrow evening and, as long as no one has any complaints, I'll probably start the RP within the next week. There are some other things I need to ask you guys but I'll save it for the OOC.

By the way, one of the main antagonists is called Banahǫgg the Betrayer :)

A question, any limitation on what specializations our characters can take?

Always a good sign when you can't pronounce the name of the antagonist. :P

I think Krios and Kathleen should get along wonderfully, after all the Avvar and Chasind get along fairly well..

And speaking of specialization, I better state how far on my sheet Kath is in her Berserker skills.

In short: Yes :P Just try to keep in cannon and/or justifiable. If in doubt post or pm what you had in mind and I can offer guidance (if it's needed).

I think Krios and Kathleen would click well unless their tempers clashed. I look forward to seeing how the motley crew manages to come together without killing each other :D

AHh, ok. It's that I was thinking on making a blood mage but I wasn't, still am not, sure if you'd accept that, would you?

Lucio Peruzzi [+]

Appearance:

Name:
Lucio Peruzzi

Race/Nationality:
Human / Antivan

Age:
Thirty-Five

Gender:
Male

Class:
Mage / Shapeshifter

Personality:
Many people would call Lucio a gentlemen. Others, they'd call him a smooth talking son of a bitch. Both would be correct. While the man never fails to be the epitome of polite, he also never fails to piss of nearly every man in any city he moves through. He is a charmer, or at least attempts to be. The allure of a foreigner, a drifter, and the use of sophisticated words is often enough to impress the women of Ferelden, even some of the learned, wealthy ones. A smile is always slapped on his face, and he moves with a grace and ease of one who is completely confident in their own abilities. He enjoys fine wine, the company of beautiful women, and animals. He despises people who are full of themselves, and cheap alcohol. While he will never admit to fear anything, the one thing he is afraid of is death. Not the act of dying, but death itself. There is little he would not do to prolong his existence.

History:
Lucio hails from the beautiful land of Antiva, which he acts is shrouded in allure and mystery, a land of charm and deceit. He does not exaggerate on the deceitful nature of the land, or even its allure. It was those two things that got him into the mess that led him to sojourn south to a land completely opposite of his beloved homeland. It all began in the lovely Antiva City, where Lucio was enjoying his time as a sanctioned mage for one of the merchant princes that frequented the port. More often than not, he was at sea with his liege-lord, but at this particular time he was given nearly a month of free time in Antiva before having to report back to the ship.

Well, being the ladies' man that he is, Lucio went around the city in search of company for the time, and company he found. For the next month, he had an affair with a very pretty girl, just into adulthood. Neither really believed there was something between them, at least not yet, but it was fun to sneak around and see each other in the dead of night, under the eye of the moon. Unfortunately for him, she never said who exactly she was cheating on to have an affair with him. To be honest, though, she likely didn't even know. She was betrothed to one of the Antivan Crows, a man who was greatly feared and respected among his peers for his skill and influence among the courts of Antiva.

Needless to say, it was not taken kindly to when they were discovered. She, of course, was forgiven, because of her youth and naivety. He, on the other hand, was held responsible for both of their actions. After sharing one last night with the girl, he pleaded with his liege to take off early, though he wouldn't give a reason. His liege already knew, had been contacted by the Crows, and in minutes the room was being flooded by assassins who were ready to bring Lucio in for his "crimes." Rather than be caught and face their sort of justice, Lucio bid the men farewell and leapt from the window of the several story tall building. When the assassins looked out, they saw no sign of the mage, only a black bird flying off to the south.

Months later, Lucio resurfaced again in Fereldan, where he wandered around, free of all ties. He wandered, never staying in one place for more than a month at a time, though rarely would he remain anywhere for more than a day or two. Bandit clans in parts of the land learned to leave alone a lone, wandering man in black, past experiences and a pile of corpses leading to a sort of reputation among their kind. In the cities, he was often a welcome guest, parlor tricks of "magicians" entertaining crowds of peasants and nobles alike, while taverns enjoyed his stories of the high seas, of the bright deserts, and of exotic women.

Small villages, however, were often the places where he settled for a time. He could often find a woman, squat in the town for a few days, maybe even a week, before drifting off again, leaving only a few tender words and the occasional broken heart in his wake. However, his time finally came when he was performing one of his tricks in the city of Denerim, nearing the amount of coin it would take to get him out of Ferelden and north to Rivain. A group of templars flagged him down, and while he was able to disarm one and paralyze another, the last was able to silence him before he could change form and escape.

After that, he was taken to the Circle, and was titled "apprentice" until he could finish his Harrowing, which would happen soon after his arrival.

Weapons:
He wields a thin sword of Antivan make, the blade having a few runes etched into its flat to allow it conduct magic as easily as a staff. While a mage's staff might fire a bolt, Lucio's sword will launch a short-lived blade of energy.

Armour:
A thick set of robes and leathers, held together at his waist by a thick sash that covers most of his mid-section, and holds his sword, skinning knife, and satchel, which is filled with unmarked slates and etching tools.

Skills:
Lucio is a fairly learned mage, knowing several stone spells, including Rock Armor, Stone Fist, and even Earthquake. In addition to that, he is able to shift his body into the forms of both a wolf and a raven. Finally, he has learned the Glyph of Paralysis, for defensive use. While he owns a blade, he is hardly skilled with it, using it mostly as a catalyst for his spells, much like most would use a staff. He has become skilled in both Surviving in the wild, and is a wonderful cook. He's also been known to craft decent runes.

The Wardens are known not to shy away from Mages, and in the past have recruited Blood mages into the order. If you ask Duncan about magic during the Mage origin, he see's blood magic more along the lines of 'Grey magic'. Which basically means, he knows it's considered terrible and evil, but so is the Darkspawn, and he only cares for one of them.

The Drunken assassin will get along famously with all of you!

Alayne [+]

Appearance:

Name: Alayne
Race/Nationality: Orlesian Elf
Age: 34
Gender: Female
Class: Healer

Personality:
Not very trusting
Always wants to help people in need, even if they don't want it
Likes: Being wanted, helping people (cliché as hell)
Dislikes: Other Mages, being forced to do something she doesn't want
Fears: Blood Magic, Demons. Other people trying to sacrifice themselves for her

History:
As with most Mages who are taken into the circle, Alayne barely knew her parents. She thinks perhaps her Mother was a cook, and her Father a knight, but that is highly unlikely. But little girls take dreams to heart, and she believed that her Father was still on a quest to save her, and she escaped to find him (with the assistance of a few others). A lost little girls scrambled through the streets of Val Royeaux away from the dark visors of the Templars. The little girl was not stupid though, and realised that armed men from Orlais wouldn't be able to move through Ferelden easily, and stowed herself away on a ship to Denerim.

There she worked as a scullery maid in an Arl's kitchen, and prayed for the Makers forgiveness, for simply being a Mage. Life was good for a few years she served under a Ferelden cook called Margeret. She was nice and often gave Alayne a taste of the food before it was served. Then the rebellion reached Denerim. Soldiers burst into the Arl's estate, and called the Arl a traitor. Margeret told the soldiers the Arl was upstairs, and they left. She shoved Alayne into the larder and locked the door. Alayne heard the second group of soldiers come in, and they weren't interested in the Arl. Alayne heard terrible things behind that door, things she would have given anything to forget. She hid amongst the food in the larder for several days and only came out when she thought it safe. She saw Margeret dead on the floor, and realised how she sacrificed herself for Alayne.

Alayne fled to the Chantry, and became a Lay Sister. She prayed to the maker every day to give Margeret a place at his side. She did her duties and fell in love with a Templar named James. Although Marriage is discouraged to Templars, Alayne left the Chantry and married James, and Alayne was happy. But such things were not to last...

Now that the diplomatic situation with Ferelden had settled down, the Chantry hunted Alayne down using her phylactery, something she couldn't understand. They came to her home in Denerim while her husband was there, and even when confronted with the fact she was a Mage, he fought them. Barely even realising it, she used her husband as sacrament to destroy her pursuers. After the blood rage, she realised all she had lost and cursed magic, and cursed blood magic above all. All her life she had only had people give their lives to save her and she had squandered their trust.

Alayne went into depression, and fled from her previous life, penniless and without any hope, she was taken into a brothel and served there for a couple of years, almost comatose. A couple of years later a demon woke her, and reminded her she was a Mage. The demon realised her desire to escape, and offered to help her out in return for a favour. Alayne knew of the dangers of demons, and refused the offer, but the demon had reminded her she was a Mage. She had lived her life fleeing from that fact but now she embraced it. She would use her magic to help all who needed it

Now Alayne works as a healer for all in the Denerim Alienage

Weapons:
Magic Stave
Dagger

Armour:
