Orianna

Orianna the Nymph

Name
Orianna

Age
Mid-twenties

Appearance
Ori is a petite woman, standing at a mere 5'2" with a meager 127 pounds of weight on her bones. She favors wearing her curly blonde hair in disarray around her face, visually chaotic but actually well taken care of. Her pale tresses clash dramatically with her ice blue gaze.

Bio: Orianna has a notoriously bad memory and the ones from the earliest parts of her life are more common to appear to her in bits and pieces of her dreams. Most of the time, she remembers large fields and laughter... Happiness.. Over the years she has pieced together that she belonged to a prominent farm family, providing the majority of grain to a noble house in England.

Her family name is still unknown to her. Ori has also been unable to locate any of her blood line, curious as to why they were not also immortals.

Personality: Ori is a cheerful sort, always looking for the silver lining of any situation. This does not mean that she is immune to emotion, only that she has perfected hiding behind a mask. She is perhaps too trusting, befriending total strangers almost immediately.

Possessions:

• 4 Earth Vestis Crystals
• A field Scythe for harvesting
• Various articles of "hippie" clothing, mostly in varying shades of tan
• Barely any money
• An optimistic attitude

Skills: Ori has perfected her ability to live off of the land, learning what plants are native to certain regions, which are harmful and which are helpful. She has learned through practice, trial & error and reading books. She lacks any real combat skills against other humans but, is quite masterful in hunting. She is quite literally a hippie and is always striving to find the love and peace in any situation.

Fast facts: While not a true Nymph, Ori has always surrounded herself with nature, preferring to live off of the land than the modern luxuries of the world. As time has shifted, she has adapted 'tiny living', minimizing her carbon footprint and growing her own food. She is not opposed to eating meat but, will not go out of her way to purchase it preferring to instead hunt for her meals.

The mysterious letter did not cause Ori any initial discomfort until she saw the check. Packing her bags, she has set out on bike to this occasion to return the money to this 'Oskar'.

Contrary to popular belief, she does in fact own a cell phone.

[Spoiledmilk]

Name: Acadia. (First given name she remembers is Qar, which she has held on to since 2000B.C)

Age: Appears to be in her late twenties.

Appearance:

Photos

135 pounds, 5'6" tall

Bio: Acadias' first memories are quite recent, from about year 500. Prior to this She'd been trying for thousands of years to end her life, ending in tieing herself to the bottom of the ocean where she stayed for 800 years until she rose to the top, barely anything left of her body. Within the next day her body was fully intact again and she found herself washed up on shore in Brazil. Her exact first memory is the memory of walking throught he Brazilian jungle for days until she met a member of a local tribe whom she was introduced to. Looking nothing like the people around she was held captive and tortured for witchcraft in an attempt of taking her life. She ended up finally being able to escape. For decades she reminded unheard of and unrecognized.

Today Acadia is a secretary for a small law firm in New York Focusing on small cases such as divorce and child custody. She's pretty much anonymous, in an anonymous work. She doesn't have family nor does she have any friends but a fat lazy cat named Charlie. She's in fact on her eight Charlie. She lives in a small apartment a couple of blocks away from her workplace, and she follows the same strict pattern every single day. Waking up at 6:30 AM, grabbing a scone and a coffee from the bakery downstairs and then go to work. After work she drops by a Chinese take-away place and orders the same dish every day. This pattern has only changed every 10 years when she finds a new job, in a new town, under a new name.

Personality: Acadia is a numb, boring person. After her uncountable suicidal attempts and time spend trying to not exist she's ended up a human-like robot. She's completely indifferent to everything. She avoids contact with other people, but isn't really shy.
She hasn't really held any emotions, not that she'd know how to handle them if they occurred.

Possessions:
- She's quite rich, from working for several lifetimes without spending much money at all.
- Her fat cat, Charlie the 8th
- A journal.

Skills:
- She's great at disappearing, changing her identity and hiding her tracks.
- Has an insane stamina and pain tolerance.

Fast facts:
- Didn't know about other immortals.
- Has never been with anyone romantically.
- Consumes the same meals every day for 10 years before changing her ways.
- Is a chain smoker. (Can't kill her! )

This post is my WIP Character. I will be saving it periodically to prevent loss of work. History/Bio done.

John Smith

Please, post this to the OOC or PM it to me for review.

Name: John Smith

Age: 24

Appearance: (Picture or description. Realistic art, anime, real pictures, I don’t care. If you choose to use a picture, make sure that you include height and weight.)

Bio: 3200BC- 3100BC: The earliest memory "John" has, is waking up in another man's home, with that man claiming to have saved his life. In order to repay him, John helped out in his smithy (with copper mostly) until one day he accidentally mixed the copper with something else, and overheated it. However the material that came out was far stronger then the copper he was used to. Over the next couple of weeks, the smithy went from smelting and forging a moderate amount of copper, to experimenting with what would soon be known in the region as bronze. It took years to to find what he had first stumbled upon that day, and to find the best combination of ores and heat to smelt and forge good bronze. However, over this time people had started whispering about him, for they had noticed something he had not. He didn't age, and even when almost the entire village got sick he was perfectly fine. Eventually, although he helped around the village, although mainly in the smithy, the people eventually chased him away.

3100BC- 1800BC: After being chased out of the village, he wondered from place to place, earning his way by giving out the secrets of bronze working. It wasn't long until he saw the improvement bronze had on peoples lives. So over the years he taught one people after another how to work bronze, or if/when they already knew some other technology, in return for learning something that only they know; or if nothing like that was available, for coin and valuables. Over these millennia he picked up a large verity of skills and gained and lost riches that would make anyone envious, at one point even becoming a secret advisor for the emperor of China. Although that didn't last long, it lasted long enough for him to learn the art of the politician.

1800BC- 1700AD: John spent these years much as he had the last couple of millennia, wondering around and trading technology, combat techniques, arts, and any other information he could gather, learning language after language and watching each one grow and change. Many of his other technological feats include steel, gunpowder, and the rifle. While travelling he has been in and out of numerous courts, led armies, gathered treasures, lost his treasures, and gathered more.

1700AD- 1900AD: John was one of the first to travel to the "New World". It was the first time since he could remember that he felt true despair for the natives were thousands of years behind much of the rest of the world and it would take generations for him to catch them up. He didn't get very long to try as the invasion of the new world began, and he soon gave up on this endeavour and hid himself away for a small time, coming back out to see the "colonies" rebelling against the homelands. He joined the side of the rebels, soon to be revolutionaries, and spent the next decade or two fighting. Afterwords, he helped build up the nation that would become the "United States of America", assisting in the creation of several technologies that helped pave the way. However, he has never stopped fighting for the suppressed, and joins any cause that is truly suppression of freedom. Slavery, Equal rights, and many other instances have often seen him as a background leader, giving them the tools and ideas necessary to win.

1900AD- 1945AD: John spent much of this time in the background working on technologies to assist the USA, and slowly building up his wealth. However when the attack on Pearl Harbor happened, he went full out. Developing weapon after weapon to give America and her allies as much of an advantage as he could. The final weapon he ever developed was "Fat Man". This was the beginning of his current problems, since almost every project had a group picture at some point.

1945AD-1980AD: After the devastation of "Fat Man" John changed. Yes, many of his technologies has killed people, but no single weapon was responsible for so much death, so quickly. It took years before he could come to terms with it. He has even attempted to kill himself once or twice. However, even though he was staying out of the lime light, the government had already started to look for him. You see, all of the projects he had worked on over the years had pictures. With him in them. It didn't take long for the government to realize that he wasn't ageing in the photos. With the rise of the computer the problem just got worse.

1980AD- Present: John has spent much of this time living normally, or as normally as he could having to move every 10 years or so. Whenever some new scientific discovery was made, he learned everything about it he could, and was actually fairly certain of Vestis' existence long before it was discovered, but due to being hunted he wasn't able to do anything about it. However with ID security being what it is he has had a large multitude of problems hiding, but so far he has managed.

Personality: (Self-explanatory.)

Possessions: (Anything that your character might bring with them. What sort of clothes do they wear? Did they bring weapons? That sort of stuff.)

Skills: (Self-explanatory. Do keep in mind that they've had thousands of years to practice.)

Fast facts: (Interesting facts and such about your character. Fears, hobbies, favorite foods, mannerisms, and habits all belong here)

[Spoiledmilk]

Please don't die :/ I was excited for this!

[Zordon]

@Nevix I'd like to discuss my opening post with you, if I may.

PM to follow.

[Hjalti]

If you're still accepting newcomers, I'd be keen to join!

Reed

Name: Reed

Age: Mid-40's-to-50's

Appearance: Minus the medkit and gun.



Bio: For the past thirty or so years, Reed has done nothing of any real importance. He sleeps most of the day, watches TV when he's awake and typically spends most of his time out of his small, studio apartment either bowling or playing the bowling alley's nearby arcade games. His earliest memory is of Rome burning while he walked away. He has no idea if he had any hand in the event or what he was even doing there, but his long life involved travelling from land to land. He remembers fighting as a soldier for countless armies in numerous wars, working as a blacksmith, a stable-hand, a farmer, a rancher, a bartender, a bodyguard, an assassin, a merchant, a chimney sweep, an electrician, a mechanic, a teacher, a babysitter, a boxer, painter, a carpenter, a builder, a bricklayer... The list goes on and on. He remembers fighting on the docks of Nihon as one of the first Caucasian visitors to the Land of the Rising Sun. What he doesn't remember is when he stopped caring.

Personality: Reed seems anti-social to say the least. He rarely speaks and when he does he shows very little interest in the conversation, as if he has places he would rather be and things he would rather be doing, which is exactly how he feels.

Possessions: His day to day clothes as well as a sizable crate full of valuable items, treasures, trinkets, relics and artifacts he has collected throughout history.

Skills: Reed is a Jack-of-all-trades and a master of some. He's a skilled fighter in various styles of hand-to-had combat as well as with swords and other melee weapons. He's proficient with firearms but shows little interest in them overall. He's quite well read, fluent in multiple language, both dead tongues and those used today. He is knowledgeable enough in terms of electronics, mechanics, carpentry and other forms of construction and repair that he rarely needs to rely on others for help.

Fast facts: Reed doesn't fear anything. He's learned long ago that he cannot be killed by anything, so he's not particular concerned by any "dangers". He's had enough experience in combat that while he still feels pain, he's long since learned to push through it and focus past it. His has no particular favourite food and stopped caring about music long ago.
