@Caits Great. Can't wait to see it :)

[Shadow Daedalus]

Name: James Blackwall
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Appearance:

Eye color : Dark Red
Height: 6ft 2in
Skills:
General:

• Hunting/Tracking
• Athletics/Free-running
• Traps (inc. ropes)

Combat:

• Sword fighting (Specialised in Dual Wielding)
• Archery/Marksmanship

History: Trained since he was old enough to hold a sword, James is a veteran soldier and skilled warrior despite his young age. Orphaned at a young age, he was taken in by a retired instructor for the Empire's most elite soldiers, a group of Holy Templars known as the Shadow Blades, where he was taught the skills of a Shadow Blade, choosing to specialise in the use of dual swords. He enlisted as a soldier for the Empire at age 16, where he was deployed to quell various uprisings and such, eventually reaching the rank of Grand Templar. He came to fall in love with a young mage woman and saw mages in a more sympathetic light, until she was struck down by more soldiers. This pushed James closer and closer to the breaking point, where he finally rebelled when he was ordered to slaughter a village of mage sympathisers, stealing his first enchanted weapon and going on the run. He has had several run-ins with the Empire since, stealing more enchanted equipment as he travelled until he was finally arrested. He avoided execution because of his long record within the military and in return for his freedom (if you could call it that), he was forced to surrender half of his enchanted equipment and was placed under strict watch in the Citadel, banned from interacting with the Magi imprisoned there.
Predisposition to the Magi: He sees Mages as an oppressed people that deserve to be given the same rights and respect as non-mages. His lover was a mage, until she was killed for an unjustified reason that she 'might' have been a threat, and he doesn't want that to happen to anyone else.
Personality: Hard and professional, James has been raised with a disciplined lifestyle which is reflected in his outward personality, but he also has a softer, kinder side that shows when he is relaxed and amongst friends. Having left the military, he is more easy-going and has a witty, sarcastic side to him as well. Those that know him would describe him as a 'roguish hero'.
Notes: He has illegally collected four pieces of enchanted equipment thus far:

• Mage-Breaker:His main sword, a Long-sword enchanted with magic cancels out and destroys other magic, the anti-magic looks like teal and black flames wrapping around the blade.
• Iron-light: Long-sword enchanted with magic flames, useful for burning enemies or starting campfires.
• Arc-stone: A powerful lightning stone inlaid into his left gauntlet, allowing him to shoot lightning from his left hand. Continuous use can cause magical feedback which can cause him injury.
• Ward of Light: another magic stone inlaid into his gauntlet, although he can't identify which type, that allows him to cast a protective shield in front of himself. Can ward off low-level spells and regular physical attacks, but high-level magic with shatter the shield and the backlash will stun him for a short time.

After his arrest, however, he was forced to give up Iron-light and the Arc-stone as part of his work-freedom deal. He does not know were they are being kept. His second sword is replaced by a finely made but un-enchanted long-sword, and his ranged power is replaced by a longbow.

[Ashevelendar]

@Shadow Daedalus I like both of them. Really. The second one even more but there are two problems with it.

1. " Mage-Breaker:His main sword, a Long-sword enchanted with magic cancels out and destroys other magic, the anti-magic looks like teal and black flames wrapping around the blade.
Iron-light: Long-sword enchanted with magic flames, useful for burning enemies or starting campfires.
Arc-stone: A powerful lightning stone inlaid into his left gauntlet, allowing him to shoot lightning from his left hand. Continuous use can cause magical feedback which can cause him injury.
Ward of Light: another magic stone inlaid into his gauntlet, although he can't identify which type, that allows him to cast a protective shield in front of himself. Can ward off low-level spells and regular physical attacks, but high-level magic with shatter the shield and the backlash will stun him for a short time. "
Choose two , discard the other two.
2. The Citadel is a HQ / Prison for the Templar. If he was wanted by the Empire , he would either be killed or in the prison. So , if you can change to something like this " He was allowed to join the Citadel because of his long standing record. He is kept on high watch and is not allowed to interact with the Magi ". Something like this :)

[Shadow Daedalus]

@Ashevelendar Ok, I guess I can change that. So he was caught by the Templars but because of his service record he is offered a place in the Citadel. In exchange, he has to give up half of his enchantments and is bared from interacting with the Magi while under a strict guard at all times.

Is he offered a particular role at the Citadel? Is he on guard duty? Instructor? or just a ward who lives there, effectively under house arrest?

[Venku]

James seems to be a great character can't wait to interact with him. @Shadow Daedalus

[Shadow Daedalus]

@Ashevelendar Edited, Confirm?

[Ashevelendar]

@Shadow Daedalus He will be an instructor for other non-mage characters. So any non-mage players will probably know him.
I like him. Move him over. Will have an IC post up soon

[Shadow Daedalus]

@Ashevelendar I've swapped the Arc-stone and Ward of Light because if he's an instructor, they need to know how to defend against magic.

[Ashevelendar]

@Shadow Daedalus Nice. Thanks a lot !

Also. I've made my own Warrior.

We got 2 Magi and 2 warriors and when @caits makes her warrior , 3 warriors.

I think it's enough to start. Any other character can join on the way.

[Ashevelendar]

@Shadow Daedalus@Caits@Venku Done with the IC post ^_^

That's the start all that characters will have. Whatever they are / they do , a pair of guards come at 0500 ( or less ) and take them to the Ascended Templar's office.

Jamie

Name :
Jamie

Race :
Human

Gender:
female

Age:
24

Eye color :
Blue

Height :
6"10

Skills
Sword fighting-Jamie uses a thin, light weight sword that nevertheless has a punch to it.
Archery-Jamie's more preferred method of fighting, she is a superb archer
Cooking

history:
Born to a simple family who served the citadel, Jamie grew up learning how to fight from her older brother, and how to shoot from her father. She was 10 when she first proved herself, sneaking awayand following a party sent out to ensure the citadel was safe from attacks. It was here she saved the life of the person in charge, shooting an arrow at the being sneaking about, just about to kill them.

She's still not sure how she got home, without being punished, but over the years she continued to do such stunts, frightening her parents, but freewilled, Jamie couldn't be tamed. Eventually, her deeds earned her a place in the citadel, a place she had wanted to be immersed in forever.

Predisposition to the Magi
Jamie doesn't think the Magi are bad. She thinks as long as they treat her right, they are fine by her. Besides, she's a friendly person.

Personality :
Jamie is quite a wilful person. If there is something she wants to do, she will find a way to do it, and won't let anything stand in her way. She enjoys adventures, and having a good time. Sometimes she doesn't think she's alive unless she is getting into trouble-and she loves getting into trouble. She is however uneeringly kind, and will do anything for those she cares about, bringing about an anger that is mighty if one of her friends or family is harmed in anyway.

She refuses to let herself be restricted, to have boundaries placed on her and if she is confined anywhere, she will find a way out. She also doesn't like to rely on people, liking her independence, liking her own strength. She uses this strength to stand up to people, and to speak her mind.

In short, she is a vivacious, talented and kind woman, with a sharp tongue, and an ability to stand by what she believes in.

[Shadow Daedalus]

I have an IC in the works, but what's your policy on curse words? What's the best word to use when angrily telling someone to go away?

[Ashevelendar]

@Shadow Daedalus Curse as much as you want in IC but keep it civil in OCC :)

[Ashevelendar]

@Caits Accepted. Move her over. She'll be a Templar ( rank ).

I've added basic rules in the first OCC post.

@Venku No magic is allowed in the cells. As I think I've mentioned , all cells have Magic-Dampering fields around them so they cannot use magic at all in the cells.

@Shadow Daedalus

[Gareth]

I would like to have a spot as a non magi character, if at all possible.

[Ashevelendar]

@Gareth Of course :)

Magi are not allowed yet because we have 2 Magi already and 3 warriors. Another 2 warriors and I'll open up the Magi CSs again. So , please make a CS and I'll look at it :)

Also. Mention me in the post next time ;)

[Ashevelendar]

@caits Please put your character under a hider , please please :) It hurts my eyes xD

[Gareth]

@Ashevelendar

Hider

Name : Razer Brunt
Race :Kil'garen
Gender :Male
Age :24
Appearance (I can find a picture if necessary, I only avoided because of the permissions required. I would have to ask their permission to use the picture and them give them credit thereafter. Its easier to just write up a description and have no picture.):A tiger that stands on two legs and has the green eyes. His fur looks just like that of a tiger with the orange and white fur with black stripes.
Razer weighs in at two hundred pounds, but his body is fit, showing off that he regularly excercises. His height is about 6'0".
Fur Color ( only if Kil'garen ) :Orange and white with black stripes.
Eye color :Green.
Height :6'0".
Skills:Navigation, Counting, Swimming.
Weapon Skills: He's best at the Quarterstaff (a thick 6' long metal pole).

His other weapon skill is dual wielding two swords and each sword has a 2' long blade.
History: (Saying this now, I will be throwing in a couple of names of places and stuff that I just made up.)

(Extra note: Let me know how much I have to change in the history as I know I am probably stepping on your toes, and I'd rather not do that.)

In the south east of Mal'Gar, there is a city called Vorilo. The place is a hubub of trade and craftsmanship. The Kil'garen were very happy as they had care-free lives, since the 'money making skills' in town were passed down from parents to children, generation to generation.

The community looked after each other. No one was abused. The ruling family made sure that everyone lived in harmony. This family's name were the Brunts and they are a royal family. They've been royalty ever since Razer's great, great, great, great, (about 10 more greats) grandfather defeated a vicious monster and saved the Kil'Garen species from extinction. That battle took place several hundred years ago.

Sadly things currently have taken a turn for the worse, and its been this way for a while. Vorilo is no longer a carefree place as the Empire has strict dominion over them. And as much as the Kil'garen do not like the Empire, they also know that if they resist they will be crushed under the Empire's mighty foot.

This was the case ever since the Empire won the war against the Magi, 100 years ago.

Now the Brunt's family's heir, is Razer, a young tigerish Kil'garen. He's been raised with care by his parents. Shown the ways of governance by his father at nightfall, and learning about how to get around the city and even swimming from his mother during daylight.

One thing was made clear by them, "Always give the Empire what they want. If they say go on your knees, you go on your knees and kiss their boots." His parent's words still ringing in his head from their constant lectures.

Occasionally Razer was able to slip away with an excuse to either his father or his mother, in order to get away from it all. He would cover his face and wear drabby clothes just so he could be an 'normal Kil'Garen' not 'Sir Prince Razer Brunt', and just have friendly conversation with others who didn't have royalty tied around their necks like he did.

When he was close to full grown, Razer's parents threw him into combat training. "You have got to learn to fight, boy, or you will end up on the end of a sword one day. That's the world we live in.", his father explained after Razer asked the no-no question ,'Why?'

So he spent quite a few years training daily with many different weapons, but the only ones he excelled at were swords and the quarterstaff. He even bested Vorillo's Guard Captain, defeating him in a one on one duel and the captain was recognized as the best swords man around.

One day, during one of the Empire's visits, a large group of disciplined soldiers led by a very scary looking warrior, came to get Razer and took him away back to the Citadel. They didn't give a reason why to his parents, despite their demanding to know.

Only after Razer asked for the tenth time, did the scary looking warrior gruffly say, "I haven't been told, but to me its pretty obvious, your a good fighter. Also is it not better to be at the Citadel than a dead threat to the Empire?" Razer nodded in agreement.

Once at the Citadel Razer was given the option to serve the Citadel or be executed. Not surprisingly, he chose to serve.





Predisposition to the Magi:Razer is indifferent to the Magi, they are strangers to him as Razer has never even met a single Magi.
Personality :
Despite being royalty, Razer is far from aloof. He is friendly enough and willing to greet others despite what they look like.

He is also honest. He will refuse to lie even to spare someone's feelings. Razer's motto is, "Let the Truth be known", although there are rare exceptions, like if saying the truth will get him killed, then obviously he isn't stupid enough to do that.

He is also very attentive, that is to the point of stopping to listen at doors and walls, just to see if something is going on at the other side.

He does have alot of pride though and if someone insults him or his family, Razer has a tendency to become enraged.
Notes ( things purely for story ) : I don't have any of these. I'm sorry.

[Ashevelendar]

@Gareth I swear I like your character ! I mean it ! He looks great. Exactly what I would've liked to see when it came to the Kil'garen. They are afraid of the Empire and know better than to ignore their wishes.

"
Predisposition to the Magi:Razer is indifferent to the Magi, they are strangers to him as personally he has never gotten to know them that well. Probably because even while he was at Varillo, the magi, that may or may not have been there, didn't give away that they were magi. Those possible magi, definitely feared execution, imprisonment, whatever other cruel punishments there were for them. "

I don't like that part tho'. I probably didn't explained in OCC but I'll do it in IC for the others.

So...the moment a mage is born he starts to "leak" magical energy. The Empire has machines that detect any kind of magical energy ( no matter how small ) and immediately send Templar to catch mages. So...hiding Magi are a no-no. Also , the moment a Mage is caught and brought to the Citadel some blood is taken from him. That blood serves as a "tracking" device ( A phylactery is a vessel, often a glass vial, containing the essence of a magical being. The Templar use small phylacteries filled with blood—taken from a Magi to track down any Mage that somehow escapes ) so there are no hiding Magi. You are either caught and brought to the Citadel or you are killed on the spot.

Modify the part with hiding Magi ( etc ) and it's ok.

Also. Kil'garen themselves joined the Warrior Guild when the Magi War started but they've been able to retain their neutral status rather than be absorbed in by the promises of " protection and prosperity " like the other races.

Edit : Put your CS in a hider , please :)
