[OOC] Pheonix Wing (A Fairy Tail RP)

[Jangel13]

That's a full 4 if someone doesn't show up I'll take their place

[lordmidget]

VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!!

Because a large number of people are gone or can't be found because of vacations, exams, and other stuff; Dirkinz and I have decided to put this Roleplay on Hiatus until the 1st of June (6/1/2014) which is in about 5 days. Don't worry this RP is not getting cancelled, we are just taking a short break until people get back from life. If people return sooner than the 1st, we will happily start up the roleplay again, but at the current time there is not enough people active enough to continue without leaving others out or taking away from the story/slowing it's progression. Hopefully you are all understanding of this matter.

We will still be monitoring the thread actively if you have any questions or would like to discuss things feel free! Note: we will still be accepting character applications!

[MarshiestMallow]

Okay. Will dutifully watch the thread until people come back, or the 1st.

EDIT:

Appearance

Name:
Aedius Darkwater
Nickname/Alias:
Aedius had been known by multiple names via stories and rumours.
.Warlock

.Necromage

.Cursed Practitioner

But many who have actually seen him know him as 'That really small kid'.

Age:
13/14
Magic:

Necromancy
Thought to be an offshoot and abnormal form of Doll Play, Aedius is able to summon different forms of undead, and control them to his whim. While most of the summons are not individually powerful, the sheer number of undead capable of being summoned is what makes the magic a threat.

Darkness Magic
Due to Aedius' reliance on Necromancy, he is only able to cast Dark Beam with the assistance of a magical catalyst such as a wand or staff.

Spells

Raise Undead

A straightforward and versatile ability. Raises undead based upon Aedius' choices of weapon, and type of undead chosen.

Skeletons - Weakest form of undead be raised, but cover the most forms of combat. They are able to use simple fire magic, wield bows, one-handed swords and greatswords. Individually weak, they tend to be summoned in groups for effectiveness.

Zombies - Stronger than Skeletons, but cover less forms of combat. Zombies are slow, but inflict mild diseases and poison effects on targets that they strike. They are also occasionally armoured. Although it lacks much use, Aedius is sometimes able to give zombies a replicated face of other people, albeit a rotted, dying version.

Wights - The strongest form of undead in Aedius' current aresenal. They are extremely slow, to the point where they have to walk towards the enemy. They exclusively wield swords, and resemble heavily armoured skeletons with a cursed green aura emanating off of their swords and themselves. Upon reaching the target, Wights unleash a flurry of stabs, slices and parries. Only two can be summoned at any given time, but they have a long channeling time which can be interrupted.

Magic Level:
Since he lacks a guild, Aedius is unable to rank himself. He is likely a high B or low A.
History:
The House of Darkwater was a family of perfection, mastery and destruction. Each member is to master a specific form of magic within a set period of time This is decided by standing stones in the courtyard, which glow in different colours and intensities to decide what form of magic is to be learned. In order to 'encourage' members to learn faster, many are subjected to a punishment known as Temperament, where the member in question would be sealed inside of a magical prison, forced to sit still and endure a variety of arcane shocks from the feet, all the way to the head for varying amounts of time. Furthermore, failure to successfully master the magic in question would result in exile, regardless of whether the magic was mastered later in life or not.

Aedius was a family member in the House of Darkwater. He was tasked with mastery of Necromancy within a span of three years. He was 10 years old when his training finally began. Aedius understood most of what he learned quite easily, but Aedius himself was slow at performing these spells at an adequate level to be considered mastery, and it was impossible for Aedius to replicate all the spells he read about on the first try. Because of this, Aedius was subjected to Temperament often, rumours claimed that he had been tempered every two months. At the same time, he was also focusing on a different form of Magic: Darkness Magic, using books from Darkwater's archives; it was not frowned upon in Darkwater, but the decision of the standing stones always came first, and this simply led to being tempered more.

He was unaware of the consequences of failing to master Necromancy.

At 13 years of age, had not yet fully mastered Necromancy, and was thus disowned and exiled, but not before being tempered several more times in a row. This enraged Aedius himself, he had only needed to learn a few more spells for him to be recognized as master by Darkwater standards. But there was never an exception to the standing stones' rule, and thus Aedius was subsequently thrown out of the House of Darkwater, never to be allowed to return, or he would run the risk of being killed. Being exiled at a young age, he now lacked the necessary parental figures to provide guidance, and was now able to do as he pleased. Aedius became chaotic in his actions with nobody to tell him otherwise.

Enraged but thoughtful, his first decision was to locate a new place. He had recently found a burial crypt which was north from the calm town of Valford. Since then, certain citizens of Valford have been hearing strange noises deeper in the crypt, the town mayor has sent a request to the guilds of Fiore in order to ease the minds of the citizens, who are thought to be imagining things.

[center]Personality:
Arrogant and rude, Aedius mocks his enemies and speaks highly of himself. He has a particular dislike for people who do anything involving fire, as Wights are somewhat weak to fire.

Longer description

Aedius can be classified as vain and somewhat childish. He looks down upon people most of the time, and speaks highly about his own form of magic. He refers to people he doesn't like as "magically impaired" (everyone, at the moment), and has been known to throw bones at people when he has access to them. Aedius hates almost anyone who uses magic involving fire, as his strongest summons are weak to it, he sees it as "effortless and annoying" and he specially refers to fire mages as "Living candlelights". At the same time, Aedius could be considered lazy, as he rarely uses his Darkness magic for combat, relying on a mass of minions created with Necromancy. He sometimes uses an unnamed magic to give himself a threatening, deep, sinister voice which would seem omnipresent throughout his domain as a deterrent, or to create fear in weak-hearted intruders.

Team Members:
None
Three Strengths:
1. His large variety and sheer amount of summons can overwhelm the unprepared. (They're also extremely spooky)
2. Aedius tends to get people angry with his attitude, which could cloud their judgement during combat.
3. He's a fast cleaner. If a friend were to ask him to help with cleaning he would likely help, surprisingly.

Three Weaknesses:
1. He has invested so much time into learning summons, that his combat magic "Dark Magic" is subpar and near useless.
2. Aedius - being young, is not resilient to any magic, or physical attacks.
3. While his main summons do not take much energy to cast, Aedius could easily over exert himself if he created too many Wights, or had to run around for a long time
Greatest Love:
His Necromancy is really the only thing that pleases him.
Motivation:
Proving himself to House Darkwater, even though they will never allow his return. He still retains a strange sense of respect for the house, and the standing stones.
Additional Details:
None.

Yeah, several people are probably gone now and I was thinking if anyone needs to we can skip to a time when everyone has completed whatever jobs they were on and such. Possibly a few days, possibly a year? what do you guys think? Also, I was planning on making a second character to help get things moving again. But i'm going to sleep now so ill see you in nine-ten hours.

[MarshiestMallow]

Just a skip to the get passed these first jobs will do, I think.

Then it can just be like we first started and interact with people again.

I was thinking about a second character too

[dirkinz]

okay, by the end of today at the latest We will have several more jobs up and we will do the skip, sound good to every one?
