Yeah....I feel bad for her too, but maybe things will get better for her.


Plus I guess until other CS's pour in, that just leaves Jocelyn as the token female character lol XD

If this is still accepting id like to enter.

We are still accepting, please feel free to post a CS

Name: Adrian Corvinus

Gender: male

Age: 19

Nationality: Tachikawa (he is of Hieledran descent)

Appearance:
He is 6'2 with a brown faux hawk. He has green eyes and a scar on his left check that goes from just under his eye to right before his ear. This scar is shallow, but it is noticeable. He has a tanned complexion and excellent muscle tone.

Bio:
Years before he was born his mother and father were forced to flee Hieledran because his father killed a blackguard soldier. The man had attempted to say that his wife was a witch, and when he turned to kill her Adrian's father crushed the mans skull with a hammer. Immediately they had fled the city and sought passage on a ship headed for Tachikawa. They were denied passage, but knowing that if they stayed both would die they managed to stow away the night the ship headed out. It was a long and arduous journey in the hold of the ship, and they almost died of dehydration. However a crew member of the ship found them and taking pity on the couple delivered them water once a week. Upon arrival in Tachikawa they were brought before a noble family and made servants. For many years Adrian's father served as a peasant warrior to the nobleman. However one fateful evening in a heroic act he saved the nobleman's life.

The battle was might like a tempest upon the sea and waged all day. Men were slain left and right, and blood soaked the ground. Blades were stuck into bodies and earth alike as the dead heaped upon one another. Finally it came down to just three five men. The nobleman, Adrian's father, and the opposing nobleman and his guards. Adrian's father engaged the guards with his spear and immediately slew one with a stab to the heart. When the spear ran the man through crimson sprayed through the air and the spear broke along the shaft as the other warrior bore down upon him. The rival warrior's katana swept through the air in a shining arc, but just before it smote him Adrian's father caught the mans hands but was tackled to the ground. Rolling on the ground wrestling for possession of the blade the two fought ferociously. As this was happening the two nobles were locked in a fierce duel. Their swords clashed and sparks fell to the bloodied ground. The nobleman who Adrian's father served was a valiant warrior, but he was slowly losing ground and suffering minor injuries. Rolling over Adrian's father pinned the man and ran him through with his own blade. As this happened the nobleman he served fell to his knee and the rival nobleman's blade shot forward toward the mans heart. Adrian's father was run through grabbing the man's blade as he fell to the ground giving the one he served just enough time to leap forward and decapitate him in a single stroke.

As Adrian's father lay dying the noble man promised to take care of his family, and deemed him samurai. However Adrian's mother died in childbirth when she had him, and the nobleman adopted both him and his sister and raised them like his own. The man honored his word and Raised both to the rest of his ability making sure they were both educated, and even giving Adrian some information upon his father's gallant deeds. This is where Adrian's story truly starts at the age of ten when he and his sister took a walk on a beautiful night.

He was once a member of a wealthy family, and he was to have whatever his heart desired. However that was not to last. One night in which the moon was brilliant and full Adrian and his sister Emilia were attacked by a werewolf. This creatures coat was as black as the night itself and it quickly dispatched his older sister before his eyes. The beast slunk forward toward the blood soaked terrified boy and lifted him in the air. It delivered a hellish bite to his side, but was quickly struck down by a mysterious swordsman wielding a blade of silver. He took the boy to a campsite where he was staying and nursed him back to health. As the boy lay there the man told him of his travels and of defeating beasts, and how the Adrian was going to turn into one. Adrian begged the man for a cure, but there was none. However the man made a special potion for Adrian to drink allowing him to not change during the full moon. Afterwards Adrian begged the man to take him as a student, which he reluctantly agreed to do. Finally the mans whose name was Jarik von carstein and Adrian Corvinus began their journey.

After five years had passed the boys body had mutated some due to the effects of the wolfs venom. His once hazel eyes now shone a brilliant emerald green, and his physique and all natural attributes were increased. He trained day and night and finally Jarik made him weapons. Jarik gave the boy two wrist bracers each with a special blade inside them. These blades were 16 inches long and made of silver that was magically enhanced to be more durable. Whats more is on the blade magical glyphs had been etched and it had been treated in holy water. So the boy accompanied Jarik on a hunt, they were hunting a vampire, an elder to be exact and one that was far more powerful than they had known. The vampire quicly threw Jarik to the side and fired a bolt from a crossbow at Adrian's head. Adrian barely dodged and it cut a small gash on the left side of his face. The vampire sensing weakness dashed forward and picked the boy up by his throat, meaning to crush it and him with one fell blow. However the beast was utterly stunned when Jarik's blade pierced its chest. Releasing Adrian it turned and stabbed into Jarik with its hand ending his life. As the beast turned back to Adrian It was met with two silver blades to its eyes and crumpled under Adrian's weight as he leapt on it. Adrian was overcome with burning hatred and continued to stab the beast repeatedly until not a single scrap of its unholy existence remained. Adrian knelt before Jarik's body as tears fell from his eyes. He had lost what he considered his father and his mentor. Jarik with his last scrap of life handed Adrian his sword and bequeathed it to him before he passed to the next world.

Four more years passed and Adrian had stopped killing monsters after two. He now lived in a town with his wife Remy. She was a beautiful girl and was only two years younger than himself. They had been married for two years, and he had devoted his very life to this woman. He worked as a blacksmith and she stayed at home. However happy endings rarely remain happy. On a night where dark clouds covered the sky their door was suddenly shattered inward. A man with burning red eyes and shining white fangs entered the room and immediately threw Adrian across it into a wall. As he slowly rose to his feet he found that the man had Remy caught in his arms. The man explained that he was the brother of the elder vampire Adrian and Jarik had slew all those years ago and that he was there for revenge. Adrian begged with the man to kill him and leave Remy in peace, however it was to no avail the man cut her throat with his nails and threw her to Adrian. As Remy lay there dying she smiled up to Adrian and touched his cheek leaving a small trail of blood as her hand fell. Adrian could feel the hot tears streaming down his face as he pleaded with his wife not to leave, while she lay dying in his arms. Finally she died and the man with red eyes laughed at Adrian's pain it obviously bringing him amusement. The brilliant full moon broke through the clouds outside and a ray of light fell on Remy's face. It was to heavy of a burden for Adrian to handle. Finally after years of holding it in, and even though he had taken the potion his wolf blood took over. He rose to his feet and his eyes turned a brilliant yellow as his teeth lengthened and his body changed. The man backed away uttering words such as impossible and damn you. Finally Adrian turned standing at his full height of nine feet with brilliant white fur and fury in his yellow eyes he set upon the man.

The next day Adrian awoke to find the man in tatters around his house blood covering it from floor to ceiling. He took Remy outside and buried her marking her grave. Finally he returned inside broke out a portion of the wall and removed his items from his monster hunting days. He had still trained and kept in shape and it felt familiar as he donned the items. He had heard tale of an organization named the order who were set upon ridding the world of vile beast, and he set out to find them. Upon finding them he joined their ranks and now he stands ready for what comes next.

Fighting Style: He is an extremely fast and fluid fighter. Due to his training and natural latent talents he prefers to use stealth to sneak up upon and execute his victims silently. He can however wield a sword with prowess few can hope to match. He is not profient in any magic or the use of a shield at all.

Skills/Abilities: Due to his wolf blood he has many abilities that are nigh impossible for a man. He is moderately strong but truly excels in speed. He can sprint 20 miles an hour and his movements are incredibly fast making him an excellent swordsman.

equipment: Two bracers with silver blades as described in the bio. Also a longsword that once belonged to his master Jarik. This longsword is four feet long with a three foot blade. The blade is made from silver and enhanced in all the same ways Adrian's bracers are.

Other Information: Due to being a werewolf Adrian is extremely allergic to silver if it enters his bloodstream. So if he were to ingest silver, or be shot with a silver bullet it would certainly bring him to the very edge of death. Also due to the nature of the order he must keep his beast blood a secret. He brews the potion in secret, and drinks it out of a special flask he carries with a wolfs head engraved on it. The flask can hold two doses so he can generally go on a two month adventure before having to return and brew more.

idk if he will be accepted but I figured he would be an interesting addition. Also I just read Jocelyn's CS seems like the kingdom our people is from is a really shitty place to be, and she would probably kill my guy if she found out what he was.

I would like to join the order if I may :) Will have a CS by tomorrow since it's 3am (of course if the answer is yes)

I don't know. I'm kinda torn on the idea for a few reasons. First off I don't see your character fitting into the Theocracy of Hieledran, mainly because the nation is so small and so devoted to the religion it would be incredibly hard for someone like your master to work outside of the church as a monster hunter as Blackguard would hunt down any promising individuals and force them to join them. Also if the Blackguard got any sort of hint that there was a werewolf masquerading as a human you would be put on trial held until the full moon with no way to get your potion, transform and be killed on the spot, If they even waited that long (religious fanatics do that stuff you know). As for a nation I would think somewhere else would fit, Vampires, werewolves, and all that stuff aren't exclusive to Hieledran that is just a place where they are very potent.

Then as for the werewolf part in itself. I do like the idea of trying to suppress the power and all that jazz, but I did ask that you PM me to ask about special cases. and with that being said I already have someone coming in who would have Demon blood and goes through the hiding it, plus my own character's Dragon ordeal. I accepted the demon because it wouldn't be fair of me to say nope I'm the only one who gets cool powers, but I'm reluctant to accept a third as our (if everyone fills out a cs who has said they would do so) 3 of 9 of our hunters would be of monster blood and well although I do believe if one was found out the other two would move to help him. it makes the kinda rare breed of "specials" not so rare. So for the moment I don't want to take in another monster, but if the Demon Blood guy decides not to join, or we get a few more "regulars" in by tomorrow afternoon I'll take you on as a werewolf. All I'll need is Rusalka's say on if your character would of been able to make it in Hieledran, because I am under the impression that it wouldn't work so well but its his/her nation and he/she would know better than me. and if Rusalka says no its no biggy just switch to somewhere else.

As for joining Yes Red I am still accepting so go ahead and make a cs.

P.S. if you don't mind we need some range! a mage or some sort of bowman would be excellent. Hell, i'll even allow some sort of rifleman if you can fit the character into Hieledran lore (although it would be somewhat of a musket no super cool gun)

When I made him I chose Hieledran just for the European theme, I guess I should have specified better that he and his master traveled a lot. Like they didn't stay in Hieledran he was just there for a small amount of time and happened to rescue Adrian. I can lower his stats a bit, and I have no plans on letting him transform at any time during this RP in fact I was going to make him tell the others if the full moon rolled around and he didn't have the potion. All in all I don't want his lycanthropy to be a bonus that gives him powers its supposed to be a curse that reminds him of all he has been through. I am curious how Blackgaurd would know he is a werewolf he just looks like a super fit human, and all his stats are well within range of human limitations they're just peak physical human limitations. My bad about not PMing you about the special thing it was made up on the fly cuz I made up his bio on the spot. Also no more than likely if another of the "monster" hunters was found out Adrian wouldn't help them in any way, but ending their life. He despises his wolf blood and he despises vampires more than anything else which is the other reason I put him in Hieledran. However I can always change the nationality that's no prob and I guess I can take the werewolf thing off, but that just kind of makes him stronger cuz it takes away a bunch of weaknesses and doesn't significantly impact his abilities.

Well going with the European theme I can understand, but Hieledran is a very small isolated nation so traveling in and out wouldn't be easy. And with the Blackguard finding out first off they are the hunters and with it being the full moon they would be out in force and with any sign of them in an area the Blackguard would be on the hunt and any "survivors" that they found wouldn't remain that way for long if a mark was found. If you want to keep your character mainly as is I would say taking out the werewolf part. Make your master into one of the Blackguard and make it so your training more incorporated into the lore of Hieledran. Your character would then easily be able to receive the training required to be an assassin (because really there isn't a need for someone based on stealth and speed to be able to lift 300 lbs) and then you would then be able to join the hunters and leave Hieledran as a part of Jocelyn's group.

I am so sorry I worked a crap ton over the weekend. I will have my character up soon.

Reading through Adrian's bio, and I gotta say I'm impressed with his character. He seems to have been through almost the same ordeal as Jocelyn, and him having werewolf blood is rather interesting as well, though there are some issues. As Arthanus said, and this was agreed on, any hunters in Hieledran would have already been inducted into the Blackguard by the Church during the Hellspawn uprising so that would be a no on any freelance hunters in the Theocracy. True, I could see during the period of Adrian's life where he is retired from monster hunting that he could've settled down in Hieledran with his wife, after maybe a period of traveling the world alongside his mentor, but even then the Church would probably find out about his past hunting legacy and send Reapers to persuade Adrian to leave retirement and join the Blackguard. Plus Arthanus is right that Adrian's character could also fit anywhere else. Vampires and werewolves are mainly more prominent in Hieledran, true, but they are also scattered across the world as well, maybe just in a few sparse numbers as compared to Hieledran. It all depends on what Arthanus thinks. If you do want your character to have been born in Hieledran as a hunter, then i would say that Jarik would have to have been part of the Blackguard and yes Adrian would have to have joined as well. But if it were the previous as I mentioned of him just settling into Hieledran, then I could maybe see your character's bio as plausible, but then again Hieledran is isolated, so he would need a good reason to be granted access into the country.

As for the part of Adrian having werewolf blood, yes if the Blackguard ever discovered this, then he would be put to death. I would figure that if Adrian didn't display any warning signs that he was infected with lycanthropy (IE: even if Adrian could suppress his ability to change, attributes such as an enhanced physique and lifting 300 pounds like it was merely a feather would in fact be dead giveaways to skilled hunters, especially Jocelyn. Plus I don't see enhanced strength having anything to do with stealth, since stealth is more based on speed and silence rather than brute force.) then there wouldn't be any consequences for him. Plus Jocelyn would not aid him in any way if he discovered his secret. She would be more inclined to kill him on the spot, mainly because yes she is a devoted Reaper of Blackguard, but also because of her violent hatred towards werewolves for killing her father. All in all, I don't see much wrong with your character, but I do think a few things could be changed. I'll just leave that up to you and Arthanus though to discuss, since this is his RP and I don't want to be overstepping any boundaries.

Also on a quick note, I'm alright with any sort of flintlock weapons being part of Hieledran's weaponry, but I would kinda prefer if they were sparsely used. Again, not my decision to make, but just a suggestion.

EDIT: Actually, I'm deciding just to keep Jocelyn as a human, since what I wrote about her just seemed vaguely implausible and I don't want to perturb the GM by adding another mixed breed character.

Well after that here is where I am at, since I didn't even know Rusalka's character was part vampire ill just throw the monster to human ratio out the door. Now maybe your master could be a member of the Blackguard with a similar condition, so he took pity on you were others would have killed you (work off of the werewolf's pack thing). The that is where your training comes from. As for settling down maybe having the home and wife while in the Blakguard with no real retirement stage just the times when he was off duty, or maybe for a period of time his skills as a blacksmith were needed more than for him as a fighter (doubtful, but could give you time off). And then once your family was dead you track the Vampire out of Hieledran and join with the group of Blackguard sent to join the Hunters with the plan to hunt him down and kill him.

With this you can keep being a werewolf and all that such, but i would say switch the strength part to not super human use enhanced. werewolves are strong, but they are more known for their speed, and scenes more than strength.

As for the guns, flintlock would be fine, sure it is powerful and will do some damage (killing little things almost instantly) but that only works if you hit the target in the right place and Flintlocks aren't known for their accuracy.

Anyway, I'm going to be working on the first post and I should have the first post if the IC up by the end of the day
