Name: Gerhard Bergfalk Gender: Male Age: 37 Nationality: Silverfang (Silverfanginite? Silverfangian? Silvin?) Appearance:
Gerhard is quite a muscular man of Silverfang descent, he stands at a sizable 6'4" and appears as a quite imposing man due to such however, the large man's face always has a kind gesture a heart smile and a warm and welcoming demeanor, a dark brown mustache that is kept rather long is the only bit of hair to be found upon his head. It is easy to tell that the man had never worked an easy day in his life, for his body seems sculpted magnificently. Bio: Gerhard Bergfalk, a man of raw physical might and staunch personality. For as long as he could remember Gerhard has been a laborer, working one menial job to the next essentially picking things up and putting them somewhere else. In time he became quite good at such physical labor. For years Gerhard lived like a dog, barely able to scrap enough money together to survive. A great being, Silverfang, though a beast still lived a life of plenty. This gave the man the very will to pull together, for if something as hated as a great beast by those who do not understand it can eek out a living, then by the powers that be so could Gerhard! The mighty dragon known as Silverfang took a liking to the somewhat down on his luck man, just as she has done so many times before for her people. For years in the mountain homes Gerhard was taught of many things by the rather omniscient dragon, or perhaps she had manipulated his malleable heart. There he had learned the very basis for the morality that he employs today. Not all humans are good for the fact that they are human, there are people that are fiercer, more deadly, and most of all, even more treacherous than many of the beasts of the Shadowlands. And on the flip side, there do exist beasts that are slaughtered for the sole fact that they are beasts, some are just like Silverfang, not wishing harm among those who wish harm to herself. Gerhard's heart was soft, kind, forgiving, perhaps he had the ability to change the opinions of those around him, and yet he knew that many beasts must be slain if his way of life were to continue. With Silverfang's blessing Gerhard knew that he must place himself within the ranks of the Black Order if he truly wanted to fulfill his dreams, a life where beasts and men are brothers, not enemies. Gerhard is a man among men, who often lets his demeanor and muscular fortitude do the talking for him, he has the capabilities for fine arts and strives to help everyone around him reach a certain perfection in at least one trait. A softhearted and kind soul he does not hesitate to place himself in danger's way if it means the protection of someone close to him. Fighting Style: Gerhard is somewhat skilled in hand to hand combat, although he hasn't had much practice for he is a man of spirit and soul, contrary to his appearance. Heavy strikes and versatile grapples are what line the style of brawling that he employs. Equipment: Two heavy iron gauntlets that cover a portion of his knuckles, yet leaving enough open space for him to have mobility with his hands, these are the catalysts for his fighting style. And a supply of normal everyday shirts in abundance. (He tends to tear them often) Skills/Abilities: Gerhard is often considered a mountain of thought for his outward physical appearance and wisdom that he contains within. Unknown to him the large birthmark that resides at the sole on his right foot is in fact divine in nature. Gerhard never thinks to much about it, other than when he is in contact with earth it makes effect on his life. Although when there is dirt between the large man's toes, he feels at peace, perhaps even one with nature. This mark is completely unactivated and untapped into, it is unlikely that Gerhard ever will posses the knowledge or skill to activate it. Other Information: Gerhard speaks with a heavy Scandinavian sounding accent!
As an aside, I really like the setting and think that many wonders shall be had!

I might take a few days to get mine up. I'm generally a slow reader and I want to make sure I got everything from the OP before starting my CS. Combined with the fact my next two days are going to be busy with driving school, might mean a delay on my part. I might be able to get a CS up tomorrow, but it depends on what happens.

My CS is a work in progress, I'll finish it some time tonight or in the morning. She is a mage with a focus on utility rather then offense. Which leads me to a few questions, how does magic work? Sheer force of will, through a focus, incantations and arm movements, magic circles, any combination there of or do we each do our own thing? And how does one learn magic? Is it trial and error, tomes and lore, or simple willpower and finesse? EDIT: I'm actually going to pull out. I hope you all have fun.

@Gamerdude369 Magic works by the gift of the gods. The Birthmark serves as a catalyst which allows you to use magic. Your magical energy comes from within yourself and is fueled by your own mystic energy (Mana) the more you practice and work with magic the larger your pool of inherit mana and same goes with the spells themselves. You learn the magic as you learn anything a combination of understanding and practicality. meaning just because you read the spells and studied how to rain fire from the sky you won't be able to do anything near that until you can physically control and withstand the drain on yourself before you use it.

Count Salezenathor of Hesse, Vassal of Talos, Sworn to the Black Order
Bio Count Salezenathor was born as the younger brother of the current Duke Ironclast of Hannover. Ironclast and Salezenathor were opposite in some ways: Ironclast preferred to fight close and be comfortable with the masses, while Salezenathor preferred to fight from a distance and only open up around smaller groups. For the reign of their sickly father however, they complemented each other in maintaining the house. They became better friends as they became worked more closely. Their father, realizing his death was approaching, wrote in various gifts to each of his children. This included an Shardbow for Salezenathor and a magical sword for Ironclast. When illness finally killed their father, the duchy went to Ironclast and some ducal lands went to Salezenathor as a county. For a while they remained friends, but then Ironclast got married and had a child, and then another one the next year. Realizing that while his brother remained, his second born would have no lands to inherit. Sal's brother, wanting to maintain his line as noble, started trying to get rid of Sal. After a few minor skirmishes within the duchy the Count left, naming Ironclasts second son regent and heir. Salezenathor signed up with the Black Order, maintaining his title but losing the lands as a requirement. Ironclast's murderous intentions remained however as he thought Salezenathor was just being clever. While accomplishing nothing extremely note-worthy, Sal has started building a reputation as an excellent marksman and a skilled politician. He has hunted in the evil woods for monsters of small to mid size as practice though, waiting to jump on the big game for when he as accurate with his bow as with his eye. Age: 40 Fighting Style Sal prefers to maintain a distance, shooting his arrows with great skill. If he has to he will use a simple knife on them. Skills Marksman: Salezenathor can shoot far and accurately, or mid distance and quickly depending on his bow. Horseman: Salezenathor can ride like a knight, as comfortable on horseback as on foot. Politician: While not able to speak to crowds, Sal is clever and in a conversation involving less than five people will get the better of the others. Singer: Every camp needs a bard. Sneaky: Although not a tracker, Sal can hide in the shadows. Equipment Icon. Rankoric Horses are bred for speed and intellect, moving faster and longer. Small in stature yet strong, they have one defining characteristic: they choose a person and stick with them. They will only obey commands from that person, will fight to defend them, and die for them if necessary. They also live to be as old as the person who rides them, usually dying no later than a year after they do (although sometimes they change to a close friend, making some live for stupidly long lengths of time). Icon chose Sal when Sal first left for the Order, in a way a sign from God that this was the right choice for him. Boots of Silence: Make no noise as he walks. Cloak of Weather Resistance: Anything natural has no effect on the wearer: a strong storm will not hit them, rain will not touch them, and ants will not bother them. Monsters and magic will still hit the wearer though. Folding bow: A bow that folds at the middle in a unique manner, allowing Sal to carry it discretely in his cloak if necessary. Made to shoot quickly and at a mid range. Shardbow: A bow of massive strength and size, it is theorized that from the Age of Gods this was a weapon that brought down deities. When drawn, it will never snap no matter the tension, and it seems to shoot exponentially harder the stronger it is pulled, meaning if something tugged the string REALLY hard... (Note: For a human this will only be maybe twice to three times as strong as normal, so he won't be shooting a railgun) Jester: A magical flute. Salezenathor is still trying to figure the damn thing out.

Name
Ty'ura Kurastien

Gender
Female

Age
18

Nationality
Talos



Yura is a very intelligent woman. She is very strategic with her movement in combat and tends to overuse her energy of which tiring her, and doing this multiple times she gains a very athletic body, though due to her height (4.11) she seems very feeble and delicate. Yura has a calm and cute look to her appearance, most people around her treat her like a child or simply a weakling of who can barely do anything. Yura also is very clumsy and due to that she has received almost 4 cuts in her lifetime. One appearing on her arm and most of them are, and the other is on her leg. Yura's hair is fairly long, though she tends to keep it up in a bow, the length of her hair ends from her head to her shoulders, and her hair color is also black. Yura is very clean, due to her intelligence she has studied that, when burning water it kills various bacteria, thus she does not gain that dirty look to her skin. Yura is a very kind-hearted person, though mostly to animals but that doesn't mean she is rude. She relies on animals more than humans due to her stronger bind with animals that serve as companions listen to her more than humans. Around 'people' she has a very bubbly personality, casually talkative and very hyper, but she tends to show more of her friendship and love to animals and gives more thought to animals as well.

Biography

Ty'yura was abonanded at a young age, only seeing her mothers face of which that memory begins to become more scarce. Yura could feel the wet and cold ground as many ran to there homes, but a young barmaiden, only at the age of 23 lived by herself and took notice of Yura. The barmaiden, Asthian take care of Yura, without the knowledge of Yura and her parents. She gained the love of a mother, though with having Yura around her life became harder, Asthian didn't let the sadness or depression come over here. When she was at work she tried not to worry as she asked the neighbors nearby to watch her house, it was a mistake. As she let those 'supposed' friends into her house stuff began dissapearing and thus...making her even poor. Asthian couldn't handle the money of which she needed in the city for her house and so she had to move. Asthian barely had any money for her and Yura, she carried the weight and the weight of her heart out of talos, attempting to find work, but there was none. Asthian's love never went done, she cared and protected for Yura and never gave up, though she was at the end of the chapter. Asthian was infected with a sickness of whichh was highly dangerous, the 'flu'. She didn't have money for the medicine nor did she have the components to heal her from the flu. Asthian cried and cried, hugging her daughter around the campfire, weither it rained or snowed she would still love Yura at a her full extent. Soon after..her book was closed, Asthian couldn't stop the tears as she knew it was her finally night alive, and so she tried to call for help in the nearest town, but soon died. Yura was alone, crying out for Asthian, tears slowly sliding down her face as she ventures every inch of the area they both had camped out, but nothing. Soon after a guard had found her alone, crying with the only remnants of her mother, a sword and a book filled with stories that Asthian took the time to create and read to Yura. The guard had took her to the village, only 21 miles away from Talos. The guard tended to Yura's need, he was a single man with no family memembers in his household. Yura grew, without knowing the mans name as he was to be only called 'Pa' (or any other names that reffered to as Dad. ) The man would buy books from the library and at times take her to training to watch the guards train and clash swords. Pa wasn't the nicest man in the world as he was very stern and serious, yet he had the smile of a child and the voice that was soothing. Pa gave Yura all the advice he could about 'defense' he would casually teach her how to use a sword in different ways and creating diverse fighting styles. Pa knew that the sword Yura always held with her was the only remnant of her mom, as he had saw her drop down and die his heart tightened everytime he saw the sword, keeping a secret that he did not aid her Asthian. The sword become less heavier as she grew older, she became more fit, having the knowledge of a guard, though she had developed her own style of combat, many thought it was a bad idea and a waster of energy, though in reality it protected her more. Yura was a smart and intelliegent girl, her father provided her with multiple essays, questions, and books, they had practiced writing, the father gained the knowledge from a mage, as he too was slightly a mage, though very low as he ranked as an apprentice, the magic of the father didn't rub on her, though his knowledge from the mage did. Yura, had no memory of many people in her life but only the merchants and her Pa. People seemed to be very scarce as many didn't seem to have free time, they were busy or lazy. Most of the citizens in the village were only young adults and elders. (<--extra) Yura was an adult, at the age of 18 she felt ready to go outside and thus she did, she moved to Alvina, soon creating a house. Her life was going into a next chapter, feeling adventurous and eager to explore, she joined..The Black Order.

Fighting Style

[i]Yura uses both her blade and sheath. The blade is simply for impaling multiple targets or target. While they sheath is used to block and stun opponents, by hitting with the sheath. The blade can be used as a stunning mechanic as well, though it would most likely break the decoration on Yura's blade and which she would cry if she lost or broke it. So Yura uses her agile movement and her ability to do acrobatics while in combat. Yura moves around her opponent with wind magic, gaining the ability to slide on the grass to move swiftly away and towards the opponent. Up close she tends to be a strike then move type of girl so she uses fast hand movements to get her way. The sheath casually comes in from time to time, when she is wanting to impale the target quickly she will use her sheath to dodge until she is able to finally strike the opponent.



Equipment
Light Robes

Remnant


<<Skills/Abilities>>
Survival, the user has increased sense in the natural world, as they feel a bond, a connection towards the animals and trees in the forest, almost as if it were voices. Yura is able to bond with animals, gaining them as companions to aid her in battle, of which is rare and normal daily tasks. Yura also has a sense of direction, having the ties of nature in her hands she can easily navigate through the forest without a problem. As if it was magic Yura can also sense poison, smelling the poisoned substance when she is close.

<<Other Information>>
( During the time Yura was outside of Talos she had become more fit, due to the constant walking and running. At a time she used her sword to fend herself off hostile creatures such as bears as they were too hostile to tame. She had gained fleixbility, naturally and was able to run fast. She even developed her own fighting style from a book she had read, thus she practiced running and stretching. Yura gained a house, a self made house as she was able to gain help from Talos's acrchitects and gain a house from the money her mother left her and as well getting furniture. Her house had a unique 'touch' to it as there were a bathroom that was sanded constant times by Yura. It was made to be clean and clean only and would be immidentantly if there was mold or some kind of germ upon it. She used the techinque most brewers used to clean the water, burning it. The fire itself would be surrounded by stones to keep the ash away from the floor. A wooden tub would be set in the room, filling it with the burned water and thus she would gain cleaned water. She also made custom soaps, using fresh herbs from around her home, though that would take up an absurdly large amount of my bio.)]

Name: Recca HeartSeeker Gender: Male Age: 28 Nationality: Kingdom of Talos Appearance Bio: Recca was born in Talos, Half pure blood and Half native. He was Raised in the church and is a loyal to it. He father is pure blood and his mother was just a servant of the house Ryugal. When she became pregnant with the lords son, they were thrown out because the lords son said that she seduced him. Being only a servant, and he being the lords son, no one would've believed her anyway. When Recca was born, he bared the birthmark of magic on his back right shoulder. He had been chosen, and that's when the church took them in.
When he was old enough his mother told him of who his father was. Even though she had great distaste for his father and house Ryugal, she didn't want him to not know who he was. People often talked about him as the bastard son of house Ryugal, He never let any of the whispers in the dark get to him. he had a loving mother and a place to belong too. With the mark of the gods on his body he started training within the church at a young age. Honing his skills with magic and also swordsmanship. It was not long before he started to incorporate his own fighting technique. He called it Bararaku Inkeradosaika which means Lightning Sword of Extinction. As he grew older and his magic grew stronger, he finally had risen to the rank of priest in the church. He took his vows of celibacy and was committed to the cause. Soon people around Talos started to call him the Lighting Priest. Serving as a ambassador in the Talos army, he would often join them on their patrols near the border to keep the stay monster at bay. Its not normal for one of the church to go out and fight but even their pope knew that Recca had a higher calling. He knew that Recca was no ordinary child when he first arrived at their church with his mother. He as something more. Years have passed and Recca is now 28, he had made a name for himself. Training hard and working hard everyday to get out of the shadow of house Ryugal, and he obtained the rank of Monsignor. He service to the church was very committed and preaching the ways of Ristoth. His last meeting with the pope, he told him he would reach out to the Black Order. He felt like everything he did up until now was calling him to the Order. With the popes blessing he reminded him that he represents Talos and the church of Ristoth. And to remember the teachings will always guide him. Fighting Style: Bararaku Inkeradosaika is a duel wield fighting style the focus on offense but also have some defense capabilities. With the help of magic one imbues its weapons with whatever element he is more proficient with. In Recca case Lighting is is main but he has other suppose spell to help him. Equipment: Two Long swords fit in to a holster on his back in a cross shape manor. He keeps a bible with him where ever he goes. His clothes is like in the picture but on outside of his shoulder you can see a Cross on both arms (or whatever they use for Ristoth symbol.)
