The setting is Medieval times. In a fantasy village set deep within a forest. This village is well known for its diverse community and world famous flower, the Ascythenia, which grows only there.

Your character has come to live (or has lived there all their lives) in the village of Vale. It is here that they learn of a legend deeply rooted in the forests history- a legend of thread and flowers. In short the legend states that when the Ascythenia flower blooms on the house or at the door or by the bed of one individual- that an identical one will also bloom by their soulmate. It is also stated that an invisible thread will connect their hearts- pulling taut when they are near each other and thus clearly informing the soulmate that theirs is near. Now, wether your character believes this or not, they find that a flower has bloomed at their home- and they soon learn that an identical one has bloomed by the person they least expected! Will your character follow fate or refuse to believe such an old tale?

Sub plot: tbd. Open to suggestions. I’m more leaning toward adventure atm.

Empty atm.

The Mayor: (Gareth Dawnfall) He is a cheerful and rotund fellow who is loved by all the village-folk. He has been Mayor for 23 years and no one sees an end to his governing. He comes from a long-line of warriors that founded Vale- but he turned in his shield when his daughter was born. Now he lives with his family near the center of town by the town hall- in a plush house framed by gardens of sunflowers. He is good friends with the Blacksmith, Doctor, and Ranger.

The Doctor: (Atlas ) Quite the grumpy fellow- he is the oldest of the parents- with snowy white hair and bushy gray eyebrows. He takes pride in his work and, quite honestly, is the best at what he does in all of the south. He moved to Vale when his daughter was young- from a city farther north called Gardenia. His family is rumored to have royal lineage- but the Doctor refuses to acknowledge these rumors- he prefers to live simply and humbly. He lives with his daughter near the school, just above the clinic that they run together. He is friends with the Mayor, the Bard, and the Ranger.

The Thief: (Marideth Farspire) A city rat exiled to Vale lest she get her hands cut off if she were caught by the law. The Thief is not ashamed of who she is- she steals to provide for her family and because it is all she knows. Unlike the other parents the Thief came from impoverished beginnings- she learned to do whatever it took to survive. She learned to cut purses and charm coats before she could read. The village folk do not know much about her- but it is rumored that she was once part of a group of assassins. The Thief is not poor in Vale- she lives off of a wealth she acquired on her last heist before being exiled. She lives on the outskirts of town. She is good friends with the Ranger and the Bard.

The Ranger: (Farrest ) The Ranger is a master hunter- his job is a mixture of bounty-hunter and botanist. His knowledge of the forest is supreme in Vale and he uses it to aid others. He often patrols the village boarders- making sure to take care of any beasts that stray too near and to keep an eye out for any other dangers. He assists the Doctor in acquiring the proper herbs for medicine. He also takes it upon himself to hunt game for those in need of it (mainly the poorer families and the elderly). His home lies near the southern entrance- although he barely stays there for long. He has a pet wolf-dog that is with him at all times. The Ranger is good friends with the Mayor, the Doctor, and the Thief.

The Bard: (Marion ) Like all traveling Bards she knows stories and songs about all parts of the world that the characters live in. Her enchanting voice soothes and inspires- and many of the village-folk enjoy to listen to her sing at the tavern she runs. She is lively and charismatic- a true charmer. The Bard lives in the tavern (located on the east end of town) with her son, which they both run together. The Bard is good friends with the Thief, the Doctor, and the Blacksmith.

The Blacksmith: (Leslie Lenssed) Most if not all of Vales weapons are forged at the Blacksmiths home. Her weapons are fine and dependable- made with a skill that is almost dwarven with its care. She is a loud and proud individual- who could out drink any man and probably beat them in any fight. She may be rough and rowdy- but there is nothing more important to her than her son- whom she often gets emotional over. They live in the northern part of town and their forge is frequented by rangers and Academymen. The Blacksmith is good friends with the Bard and the Mayor.

Role/Class: Doctor’s Daughter

Appearance:



Name(try and make them fantasy or at least rare)/Age(18-20)/Gender
Thassalae / 19 / Female

Personality(At least four positive personality traits and four negative personality traits. Sentences, please, do not list)
Thassalae is a quick-witted and sharp-tongued girl. She is disdainful of disorganization, tardiness and anything short of excellent appearances. While she is quick to lecture and correct, she is just as quick to forgive once she feels the issue has been corrected. She takes her work very seriously, and even though she is only her father’s assistant, she is often up late poring over manuscripts and medical books, seeking answers and better solutions. Thassalae is very serious in all matters, and practically obsessed with pleasing her father and doing excellent work. Although she is often accused of not knowing how to have fun, she is also very tender and loving. Over the years of helping in her father’s practice, Thassalae has developed an excellent bedside manner. She remains calm and diplomatic even in tense situations, and can be extremely resourceful.

Bio (try and fit your parents bio)(I don't want tragic backstories. Meaning no rape victims or dead parents and all that. Lets keep this role play light, okay?)

Thassalae’s intelligence and observational skills were fostered by her parents practically from birth. While she does not remember much of the town she lived in as a young child, what memories she has are happy ones of laughing with her parents in a house that was practically a mansion, compared to the cottage she now shares with her father.

Thassalae’s mother also works as a healer, but for the last fourteen years, she has worked with a travelling emissary for the king. Therefore, she rarely lives with her husband and daughter. When she got the position, the family moved their residence to Vale, so that their time as a complete family could be uninterrupted by the hubbub of the city.

While Thassalae excelled in school, she had few close friends, especially since she told off anyone who did something even remotely dangerous. However, she has been close friends with [[OK, I don’t want to impose friendship on anyone – would anyone like to volunteer to be my friend? If not, the bard’s son or an NPC? Sorry to leave this not filled out.]] since she first came to Vale.

As her father has aged, Thassalae has worked harder to meet his high expectations and taken over more of the practice. While he can often have a bad attitude or act coldly towards people, she knows he is kindhearted.

Since she first heard about the Ascythenia, Thassalae has checked her doorstep for one each day religiously, hoping one will bloom there one day….

Weapon
Her tongue – uh, I mean, a short sword. However, she prefers to maintain a support role.

Skills: (consider your role- the Rangers son will know more forest related skills, for example. Limits: 2 unique skills and 3 basic skills.)
Unique –
First aid. Thassalae has been studying to be a doctor for years, and is able to apply the techniques she has learned from her father in emergency situations. Over time, she can repair wounds more thoroughly.
Buffing. In her studies, Thassalae was always fascinated by substances and methods to make a person less likely to become sick, or to make them stronger or immune to poisons. Therefore, she is also skilled at granting immunities and increasing the effectiveness of her allies.
Basic –
Diplomacy. Due to her experience in talking calmly to sick patients and diffusing uncomfortable situations, Thassalae is skilled in writing diplomatic letters and occasionally talking people down from making terrible decisions – when she doesn’t let her anger direct her speech.
Sewing. Thassalae’s parents insisted that she learn homemaking skills even though they could always afford to pay someone to do the work instead.

Role/Class: Assassin-in-training
Appearance:


Armor:


Name: Sh'fay
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Personality: Somewhat snarky and sarcastic with people she trusts. She'll only bother with tact if it's with someone she likes and/or respects; blunt to the point of rudeness with everyone else. Not given to prettying up harsh truths. If she doesn't like someone, she'll do her best to lead them in conversational circles. Competitive at times, takes pride in her abilities, never one to turn down a challenge she thinks she can win.

Bio: As a result of her mother's profession, young Sh'fay's habit of stealing candy from other kids was encouraged; she only got in trouble if she was caught. As she grew, Sh'fay learned several less-than-legal abilities, such as picking locks and pockets. After she turned 15, her mother started teaching her in combat; the use of knives and dirty tactics, mainly. They had a pretty good life, stealing together and amassing a pretty penny. Then they had to settle down in Vale. It wasn't so bad, all things considered; Sh'fay missed certain aspects of life in the city, but life in a little town was... pleasant.

Then she heard about the Ascythenia.

Ever since then, she's wanted to go back to traveling; Sh'fay doesn't put any stock in the notion of soulmates, and she doesn't particularly want one. Besides, who would want a thief/assassin for a soulmate?

Weapon: Several knives of varying sizes
Skills:
Unique -
Stealth - Sh'fay can go unseen and unheard by pretty much everyone, if she does it right.
Lock picking - given a bit of time and her tools, Sh'fay can open most locks.

Basic -
Manipulation - Sh'fay has a quick tongue that she puts to good use, to distract or manipulate others or just to amuse herself. It's also useful for haggling.
Climbing - many kids have a phase of excessive tree-climbing; Sh'fay never grew out of hers. Eventually, tree-climbing transitioned to wall-climbing.

Other: The rumors about Sh'fay's mother being an assassin at one point? Absolutely correct.
