[OOC] Jaysong | Medieval Fantasy [18+]

[VKAllen]

I have updated my appearance section to include a description of how tall Airdan is and his basic hair and eyes description.

[VKAllen]

May I ask how long the waiting list is for the RP?

@Brink

I believe there is another person waitng to find a spot to join, but otherwise its a first-come first-serve kind of deal when theres a vacancy.

This is based on my observation.

Edit:

Apologies in advance for double post.

[Rekaigan]

@Rekaigan one thing about it is how is she from the Xacrines if shes Solarian. :P

@Ambra

Well, you never said that Solarians couldn't be in the Xacrines~

[Marlowe]

@Rekaigan But I did say that the elves and inguz were rather hostile to outsiders and defend the forests rather well. Maybe she could live on the border of the Xacrines, away from the elven and inguz tribes?

[Marlowe]

@LadyTabris Accepted!

And here is my charrie. :P

Jocelyn Pavonia

"I am the hand that carries out the Jay's command."

Username:
Ambra

Name:
Jocelyn Pavonia -- prefers to be called Lyn by people she considers her friends.

Age:
Nineteen

Gender:
Female

Race:
Solarian

Origin:
Estiala

Profession:
Member of Estiala's Valkyrie

Weapons:
Dawnchaser. A blade with an elongated hilt and crafted out of light steel, Dawnchaser is optimal for combat upon the back of a beast.

Appearance:
Jocelyn is a young woman of standard height and figure; standing at 5'6, she bears a frame that matches her vigorous lifestyle. When she is on duty, she is clad in the trademark Lorelian armor that bears the sigil of the Jay. Out of her steel plates, she appears much like the young woman she is.

Long, silvery-blonde hair tumbles down and over her shoulders when they are not tied up. Her eyes are a bright, youthful sky blue, and they always seem to be glimmering with curiosity and liveliness. Jocelyn's skin is not as dark as people who hail from the south, but it is slightly darker than other people than Estiala, as she usually spends time closer to the sun.

Mount's (Sirus') Appearance

Sirus is Jocelyn's eyrie mount. He is about average height and length, but acts bigger than he actually is. He may be silly and clumsy on foot, but is extremely graceful in the air.

Personality:
Jocelyn may come off as bubbly and sunny to strangers, but deep inside, she is a determined and stubborn individual. There is nothing that could possibly stand in her way of completing a task, no matter how tedious or difficult it may be. She is a stubborn individual, almost to the point of being annoying; this usually gets her into trouble with higher-ups, and is often sent to do difficult missions as punishment.

Despite being a stubborn and motivated person, Jocelyn can be quite gullible and naive. If her captains or generals were to tell her a false rumor, she would most certainly believe it. That is why many tell her that her personality and general lack of personal thought is rather dangerous; if one were to want to change her opinion, simply get someone she trusts to convince her. It won't take long.

Short Biography:
Hailing from a small village on the coast of Estiala, Jocelyn always dreamed of visiting Loralis, even from a young age. Her parents, having served their time on the Valkyrie, used to tell her stories of the capitals rocky cliffs and beautiful castles that one could even spot from across the Clouded Sea. It was no surprise that Jocelyn became infatuated with the thought of traveling to Loralis and becoming a soldier of the Valkyrie, much like her parents did when they were young.

It was when the conflict with Astrax had reached its peak that Jocelyn left home to protect her country against the infidels. Being only seventeen years old, she was naive as ever, only having the sword at her hip and the mount she was given when she joined the Valkryie's ranks. Sirus, being a young eyrie himself, was almost as upbeat and cheery as she was, even through the harsh trials of training.

Unfortunately, she was never able to join the soldiers on the frontlines; Astrax had completely obliterated the armies of Xororis before she could even learn how to properly defend herself. Many of her friends had perished in the battles, and she thought lowly of herself. Many told Jocelyn that, had she joined her allies on the field of battle, she would have been slaughtered like the rest of them.

Two very slow years passed since then, and Jocelyn was finally able to become a somewhat proper unit of the Valkyrie. Having gained her trust, her captain ordered for her to travel to the west in order to investigate rumors of rebellion.

@Rekaigan But I did say that the elves and inguz were rather hostile to outsiders and defend the forests rather well. Maybe she could live on the border of the Xacrines, away from the elven and inguz tribes?

@Ambra

Mm.. Yeah, sounds good! I'll change up the CS when I get back from classes~

Anything wrong with the rest of it?

[Marlowe]

@Rekaigan Nope. That's about it. :P

[LostDestiny]

I added a description of Wren's appearance since you don't see much of his body in the pic provided.

[VKAllen]

How do you describe each race's relation with one another?

From what you've said so far, they seem to be pretty aggressive.

[LostDestiny]

I noticed that too. It is hard to get a handle on how the races work together. If they all hated each other there would be civil war. If they all stayed in there respective areas no development of the country would happen. It would be awesome if you could elaborate.

[VKAllen]

Added some sword porn to my character sheet.

[Rekaigan]

@Ambra

Edited the CS as instructed, is it good to go?

[Marlowe]

@Rekaigan Accepted. Move her on to the character tab.

@VKAllen @LostDestiny Races aren't incredibly hostile to one another, it's more like they just don't like one another. Think about it this way.
Ecros and Estiala are where you find Solarians the most, but other races are seen there as well. It's kinda like a melting pot, although one filled with racism. Solarians heavily favor dwarves and elves (who appear humanoid and are of use to them) over orcs and inguz (whose abilities are considered monstrous). This does not stop, an adventurous orc or dwarf from traveling to Estiala or Ecros, even if they receive bad looks.
In fact, other races dislike Solarians much more than the other way around. Solarians are considered crafty and untrustworthy by elves, dwarves, inguz, and orcs. They are also seen to be violent, selfish, and inconsiderate-- especially when Cassius has started to assimilate everyone under one religion. Yet, this does not stop let's say an orc from asking a solarian for a pot of soup. Everything is basically stereotypes/racism, but there IS mingling between races... just not as much as you'd think.
Have you played Dragon Age? It wasn't that common to see elves in the richer part of cities, but you saw plenty of them in the slums/their own cluster. It was also uncommon to run into groups of one race traveling the crossroads. But it wasn't THAT uncommon for someone to literally stop and say "HOLY SHIT IT'S AN ELF/DWARF/ORC/INGUZ". It's more like "Huh, that's something you don't see everyday".
This is why half-bloods, especially part solarian, are rather rare, because solarians don't usually go out of their way to travel to the Orcish territory (since they care about shit ton about their land) or Elvish/Inguz territory (same reason as the orcs). They're most likely to travel to the Frostbacks (to get ore) rather than anywhere else. That's why it's most likely that OTHER races travel to THEMr.

Do you guys get it?

[VKAllen]

Ah. Typical cold shoulder approach.

Yeah I get it.

[Marlowe]

@LostDestiny Forgot to say, 6'10 is wayyyyy too tall for an inguz.

[Death Grips]

Any idea of when the IC will be up?

[Marlowe]

@Death Grips When everyone gets their sheets in we will start.

[LostDestiny]

@Ambra What is the average height? I want to have him a little taller than average?

Also how many more people are we waiting on for Character Sheets?

[Marlowe]

@LostDestiny taller than average is perhaps 6'1.

And we're wsiting on two more, the elf and her wyvern and someone else.

[LostDestiny]

@Ambra Alright. I fixed Wren's height.
