Im going to upload my second IC post and officially cut off cs submissions in two days, in order to get the ball rolling and officially start this big ol' mess

Alright, ive now closed off interest from this point onward. Those who have expressed interest before this point still have a window of time where I can shove them in. have fun everypony UwU

I have expressed interest prior. As such, I will be posting a character profile very soon. Looking forward to it, folks!

True Name: Nicholas Nelchbald

True age: 22

True gender: Male

True appearance:

True personality: Collected, Quiet, normally tame. That's the kind of characteristics you would see from Nicholas. The young man often kept to himself, not completely out of choice, but out of a lack of social skills and offerings to most people his age. Despite excelling quite well through college, he prefers not to drink or smoke, seeing such frivolities as pointless. Despite this, he can be quite curious, and enjoys certain conversations that peak his interest. In terms of romance, he was quite inexperienced, though from his mindset, that could be a good, or a bad thing. Overall, he's a pretty nice guy if you can get past his initial lack of charisma. But beware the one who finally manages to break his calm nature.

Reason for having attended the game: Well, it seems this guy is the one handling a good amount of homework for a few certain people on the side, particularly the DM's own homework. In return, the DM allowed him to join in this little experimental venture, though he has helped others in the past with their homework before.

Character´s name: Leonard "Leo" Lornell

Character´s age: 22

Character´s gender: Male

Character´s appearance:


Character´s background and lore: As a young child, Leo was bestowed upon the nature of being an Aethergifted, an amazing gift which his parents were both thrilled and concerned of. He was born to the pair of nobles who had withdrawn to a quiet village as to escape from the hubbub of city life and enjoy much more simpler things. Having grown up as an Aethergifted, Leo was an incredibly blessed young man with swordsmanship and, due to being Aethergifted, the art of the Mageblade. Taking advantage of such a gift and refusing to let it go to waste, both parents agreed that formal training was in order. As such, at a young age, he was already being brought up by his father in the blade and the local wizard in spellcraft, using both in combination in order to achieve quite the status among his people, even as a young lad.

Unfortunately for him, something would soon change that. Given the village he had grown up in was quite small, it was bound to have some unsavory personality attempt to take hold and usurp its people. This would come in the form of a dark warlock named Malren. This dark warlock spent his time usurping villagers and threatening them with his dark arts and leasing them for gold. His name was famous throughout the lands, and Leo wasn't having any of that. At the age of fifteen, the young boy went up against the mighty warlock. And to his credit, he did manage to hold his own for a little bit. But it wasn't long before the warlock smote him with darker arts, particularly a lightning bolt which effected his sight quite negatively, leaving him open for the rest of the fight. Luckily, by that time, others had joined in the fight, and they warded the Warlock off for now, but as a result, the young man required time to recover from the injury, and without a reliable cleric in the region, this had to be done naturally, and his skills stagnated. After a year or two of recovery from the intense injury to his eyes, he still required glasses in order to see clearly. Having to get used to these glasses forced him to rework his training with his sword and magic as to accommodate the changes.

Years after this, he has finally embarked on his own quest. To improve himself further, and to become strong enough to take down the evil Malren, and end his reign of terror over the region.

Character´s abilities:

Aethergifted- Being impacted as a young baby by forces beyond his control, Leo's very life essence was altered as to grant him with incredible capabilities for magecraft and even the very shaping of the essence that controls magic itself. As such, he is quite keen to learn and control magic and even mana and aether, the mysterious substance by which magic is even possible. He also has naturally glowing eyes, causing him to be able to see in front of him in the dark for some distance.

Mageblade Class- Being both proficient in swordplay and in magecraft, the combination of both has created quite the formidable opponent. He is able to channel different magical attributes into his swords and weaponry, allowing him to create and enhance weaponry to be far more deadly. For now, he is simply able to create a fire-based sword.

Aetherblade- Being Aethergifted and being exceptionally gifted with magic, Leo is able to draw from his very nature and create a blade of pure magical energy, not aligned to any element beyond its own. This special blade is not effected by armor, and instead aims specifically for one's life force instead of one's physical body, making it quite potent, allowing it to harm someone without the need of physical damage. Think lightsaber, except able to go through armor.

Weaknesses- Despite his capabilities, Leo is not physically all that strong, only as strong as most working men on average. Beyond that, his glasses are a large target to anyone who wishes to debuff his sight and cause his life to be much more troubled.

The DM was terrible at his job and let everyone toss their own ideas into this mess. What poorly thought out ideas did you contribute?:

The possibly OP race, Aethergifted. Aethergifted is not a race that is born or can be passed on. Rather, it is what happens when one is born and comes into contact with the aetherial plane while still young. It is incredibly rare, almost chaotic, and it seems to have no true method of being trackable in terms of occurence, except that it does happen to those who are quite young. Those effected by this are blessed with incredible aptitude in magical and supernatural studies, their very natures allowing them far more skill and aptitude with such abilities. The downside to this is that, again, they are quite rare, and without proper teaching, the actual nature of Aethergifted beings can get out of hand, causing hysteria in cities where someone who didn't know they were Aethergifted lost control of their capabilities and accidentally let loose raw mana into a tavern. Lets just say its not a pretty sight. As such, they're both feared and lauded as incredible individuals, and both great adventurers of olden tales and great warlords have had Aethergifted among them from time to time.

Hey I hope if no one minds if I had a bit of history with those characters that regularly RP and that my character would chat with a few of them, atleast to get some names and maybe what their character looks like.

@Zakattacks Accepted, move it to the character section fam

mr. craig i-i don't feel so good....

will fart out an ic post in a few days xoxoxo

With my latest post I bring forth giant rats. Because what good fantasy adventure goes without the most standard first task of any adventurer: Killing rats in the tavern basement?

So long as "The Lesser God of Singing Klingon Opera When People Fight Giant Rats" doesn't show up, we'll be fine.

Due to apparent lack of activity and because I need to trim down RPs again, I'm going to bow out of this RP as well. I apologize for any inconvenience.

I'm tossing a ping here to see how many are still watching this for signs of life.

Still around

Activity in this rp has ceased to a point where I've considered it to be dead for awhile now unfortunately

@HokumPocus,

That is... sad. But not unexpected.

I had fun with this roleplay and learned from it, I'll let you know if I ever reboot it someday lol

Thanks for that. It was a fascinatingly chaotic concept. If anything... I think I would recommend trying again later with a smaller starting group and a few backup applicants in the wings, like understudies. If a character goes inactive for "X" amount of time then their character becomes an immortal NPC until they activate again, slaved to the control of another player.

But, I guess I'll let this thread rest now. It did good work for its short life.
