Also, I like the post with the environment um... shoot I'm so bad with thinking of words.... uh... not acting... reacting... no... oh whatever, you get the gist. I like that, personally, so I'm all for it.

Oh that guy, welcome back ;) as far as the character goes:

indestructible by human standards

That I'd have a problem with. I mean humans are the main villains, and you are supposed to have an unskilled character for this RP, not a 2000 years old complete boss.

While I like the character there are two main problems. first someone with that kind of power, wouldn't be able to be brought into the rp until way later, like near the end of the story. This rp is suppose to be about growth, characters who aren't warriors, fighters, who aren't experianced at this stuff that have to grow to overcome their challanages

Second being, A dragon like that would be on Elderic's radar in seconds. He's a mage that has conquered the underworld and death itself, the only reason Taraah isn't a concern to him is beacuse she is young without her full power.

I already know about the "being too op to be in the rp" problem, but i wanted to play if possible, someone with a little more...authority? I mean this RP mostly consists of simple people right now so i though a figure of higher standing or so to say would be a nice change. About the Elderic problem, i think that every mage that becomes well versed in all aspects of the arcane arts could be able to overcome death e.g. become a lich (remembers ruri's story).

Also, having a more powerful character will IMO give the story a little diversity.

Well, i could always make a new one and keep this one for later but i feel the story needs someone who could stand up to Elderic early in the story, while the other characters are developing.

EDIT: Here is the Google.doc archive, if you want to read through them and get an idea of the latter part of the old rp, feel free...
EDIT2: changed the indestructible by human standards thingy, what about now?

Forsythe is right. Right now the point is that noone in the group could even hope to look at Elderic without the risk of ending up dead. Your more then welcome to keep him in reserve for later down the road, but for now only simple characters are going to be allowed. You start with someone already powerful enough to stand up to Elderic, then there's not really any room for them to grow without making things to easy.

Oke, in the reserve shelf it is then. Now i have to go back to creating a new char
EDIT: No more dragons right? if Cain is reserved we already have 2 dragons so yeah, more than 3 will be a little too much.

Long ago, the Ancient races and the humans lived together as one. They shared the land and it was a time of glorious peace. But one day, a Mage by the name of Elderic grew envious of the power of the Ancient one's. He began to study magic forbidden by nature, gaining power no mortal was meant to hold, but even so it was not enough for him. It wasn't long before he found another who held his greed. The leader of the Veldic clan.

He wanted no power, mealy the greed of riches and glory. Forming an alliance, they began to work to get the other the clans on there side. Using a mix of forbidden magic and bribery, Elderic and the leader took control of the clans. It was shortly after that Elderic slew his partner, having no intention of sharing this power with anyone. With all the clans under his control, Elderic took control of the human race, and began plotting against the Ancients.
For years, Elderic built his army. Gather a mass unseen at the time. He knew he had no hope to outmatch the Ancients, but he would use sheer force of number to slay them. Over the years, he sent assassins to make silent strikes against the Ancients, never being suspected. The Ancients believed Elderic to be a wise and loving Mage, how wrong they were.

Over the years, he kept the pretense of peace and friendliness. Though he used the Veldic clans wealth to train and arm his massive army.

After eleven long years.... he struck the first blow.
Sending a group of Veldic saba tours and Reku magicians to the great Gi'Eld mountains, he struck against the dragons. During their mating season, he had his men use a mix of explosives and magic to bring the grand mountain down, bringing with it most of the Dragonkin.

The Ancient Races were enraged, but Elderic convenience them the men acted alone in this. He slew his own men before the Elvin king in retribution. Though now wary, The Ancients did not hold the human race accountable for the actions of these men.

Eldrics plan was working without fail.
Elderic had many of the Dwarven mines collapsed, he turned the orcs against one another, and poisoned the water of the elves.

But after one more year of these silent attacks, Elderic brought forth his army to the Lunario forest, holy ground to the elven race. King Arato intercepted the great force and held back the army as they tried to set fire to the forest, but he tried in vein. The Elves outmatched the humans, by number overwhelmed them. The king was forced to flee. The holy site was lost to the world forever.

Centuries Later

The Ancient races still continue the war against the humans. The Mage Elderic vanished soon after the war was started. Most count him among the dead, but not all. The humans have taken a king to rule their land. King Palan, direct descendent of the great Mage Elderic. He hold the same ambition of his Ancestor. The fighting has continued for the centuries with nether side weaning. The Dragons refuse to fight for fear of extinction. The Dwarves are starting to talk of retreating into their mines and the Elves continue the fight. The Vakgar - A Kingdom full of Ancient Races. Elves, Dragons, Dwarves, and Orcs hold this land. It is located near the great eastern ocean of the world. The land is covered by deep lush forest, and mountains that reach far past the clouds. The rich lands or filled with magic, that seems to hang in the very air of the Ancient Kingdom. The Elven King Arato has ruled over the land since time immortal. Though each of the ancient races have their own leaders, he governs them all.

Old age
After 600, dragons are considered elders and like humans, their bodies are starting to degrade, as is the level of their magic. While the average life span is from 800 to a thousand years, the oldest dragons recorded are of age over 1500 years.

Just going to put that out there. It's part of Forsythe's sheet.
And there's no rule that says a spell to change appearance can't change apparent age.

its just that the age and that picture don't really fit :/ i've never seen a 13 year old like that
and i am going with the story's timescale. Cain is not a second generation dragon if you catch my drift...

When you have the ability to turn into a human, I'm sure that with sufficient skill (Or the lack there of), you can make yourself look like whatever is available.

Not my point. Tara is a dragon. When she's in her normal, dragon form Taraah will look 13. The human appearance is a spell, so age doesn't matter.

Vec said and i am going with the story's timescale. Cain is not a second generation dragon if you catch my drift...

Forsythe has prime say on dragons, and he has declared that the oldest dragons reach just past 1500 years. A 2000 year-old dragon is impossible in this setting.

Cain belongs to a different species of dragons. The Serpentine Dragons. Since i dont see any mention in Forsythe's sheet on Serpentine Dragons I'll go ahead and say they live on average ±2000 years...

Hey! Guys! Let's stop arguing! Actually, I think it's probably the gm who has final say on dragons, not someone who is roleplaying IN his rp. However, it doesn't matter! That character is shelved at this point anyways.

The picture thing ALSO doesn't matter. Yes, I agree that the picture looks much too old for any 13 year old, however, as mentioned it IS a spell. So, let's just get along please?
