[OOC] The Legend of Zelda: Decedents of the Hero (OPEN)

[Crimson Raven]

The Descendants of the Hero

---

Theme

You have heard the story before, a virtuous hero rises up to defeat a dark lord and save the world and a beautiful princess in the process. Well, thats what happened. The hero, guided by fate gains the power, wisdom, and courage. To Defeat the dark lord. However, something went wrong, the hero emerged victorious, but he was changed. He attained all parts of the triforce and turned into a tyrant and crowned himself king over all the land. Under his rule, the kingdom became prosperous and powerful, the kingdom of Hyrule soon subjected all the lands and all the races, from the Gerudo of the Sands to the Fierce Bokoblins. When it seemed the former Hero of Time could not be stopped, the goddess of time brought heroes from past, present and future to one place in time. They waged a terrible battle, but because of the triforce he could not be beaten. Under the combined power of all the heroes and the Goddess of time, they managed to send him far into the future, how far though, no one knew. He could arive in one year or ten thousand years...

This story starts a millennia later...

Technology has advanced greatly and the very geography has changed. But, now there are signs that the Tyrant will return soon. The world is in turmoil, and no one, not even the godesses know what to do. There is no prophesy, no fated hero to rise up. Whats worse, is the world seems to be falling apart, natural disasters of all type are common, volcanos, earthquakes, tsunamis, and tornados are everywhere, and monsters are appearing in droves.

The only hope that hyrule has is in the decendents of those mighty heroes who drove out the Tyrant one millenia ago.....

Working on that...

@AirBender

Yes, absolutely.

[AirBender]

Sweet! How would you feel about having a descendant of Vaati? He's one of my favorite characters so I thought it would be fun. Either as a good guy or a villain, whichever you prefer.

[Sigil]

Safe to post in the CS section?

@AirBender

Good guy, although this could change.

[AirBender]

Sure thing. I'll get started on my character right away.

[Crimson Raven]

@Cyrania

I see you lurking. (¬‿¬)

[Cyrania]

I'm interested, but I'm too full now. Do you mind if I at least watch?

[Dragonfry]

I assumed it was fine to post my sheet from the interest check, seeing as it was already approved. Hope it's fine, tell me if it isn't or whatever. :)

[Double]

Argon of the Gorons

Name: Argon

Age: 40

Sex: Male

Race: Goron

Handiness: Right

Appearance:


Inheritance: Megaton Hammer

Personality: He may be a Goron of few words, but that's not from a lack of intelligence or wisdom. In fact he's considered a wise man by his tribe. He's strong and values honor above anything else, fairly typical for one of his kind.

Recent History: Argon can trace his ancestry all the way back to Sage Darunia. In recent years he has stepped up as one of the leaders of the Goron people, effectively following the path of Sage Darunia. Becoming a leader is all well enough (Argon is more than happy to serve the Goron people), but it did mean giving up his childhood dream. For you see, Sage Darunia isn't Argon's only ancestor, his lineage can also be traced back to the great swordsmith, Biggoron. In Argon's youth, he dreamed of reforging the Biggoron Sword, which was lost long ago during the first battle against the Tyrant. But stepping into the role of a leader often demands that one set aside one's personal goals.

Personal Goal: His dream is to find and reforge the legendary Biggoron Sword.

Three strengths (Not just combat)
1. Basically a walking tank
2. Can travel deceptively fast once his rolling picks up speed.
3. He's generally pretty good at earning respect from others.

Three weaknesses (Not just combat)
1. His top speed is based on momentum, meaning it's slow to start.
2. His bulky form is pretty much the opposite of agile and flexible.
3. He's a Goron, so he obviously can't swim for shit.

Greatest Love: Biggoron's Great Forge.

Hates the most: Thieves, liars

Theme Song: WIP

No one ever got back to me after I made the requested changes so here he is again.

[AirBender]

Here he is! What do you think?

Vieru The Wind Mage

Name: Vieru (Pronounced, Vee, Air, Ooh)

Age: 22

Sex: Male

Race: Demon

Handiness: Right

Appearance:

Just ignore the Sheikah symbol.

Inheritance: As a descendant of Vaati, Vieru inherited powerful wind magic, with it he can shape the wind many different ways, including sharp blades, strong breezes with which to carry people on, and even small tornados and cyclones. Magic takes energy though, and the big stuff can tire him out.

Personality: Calm and quiet. Much more of a listener than a talker. Brave and stubborn, won't give in without a fight. Protective and loyal, a good ally through and through. Despite being a demon and the descendant of a villain, Vieru really is a good guy, just a little misunderstood. Okay maybe a lot misunderstood.

Recent history: Vieru has never had a place to call home. He hides during the day, when people are more likely to see him, and travels by night. He avoids towns as much as possible, because people don't respond well to a demon hanging around them. There are several times when he's been attacked just for wandering near a town. Though many don't know, or care to know, he's the one responsible for quite a few monster deaths as he quietly protects the people, even if they don't want his protection.

Personal Goal: To one day be accepted by people.

Three strengths
1. Long range fighting
2. Sewing
3. Finding places to hide when there doesn't seem to be any

Three weaknesses (Not just combat)
1. Fighting in closed in or small spaces
2. Talking to people
3. Due to his nature as a demon, he's weak to light magic. Even outside of battle it makes him nauseous.

Greatest Love: His one and only friend, the wind.

Hates the most: People who judge others based solely on looks.

Misc: Can see nearly perfectly in the dark. Most likely to fall for puppy dog eyes.

Theme song: Can't think of one at the moment. Will add later

@AirBender

Hmm... First off...depending on which Vaati you mean he could be demon or minish.

the magic...looks fine athough the large scale stuff will be limited.

Good, but one thing I forgot (and will put) is that for a character to be accepted you need 2/3 of us (GM and Co-GMs) to approve before it is accepted.

@Double

Yours are fine and accepted. Since I had decided later on the new rule for acceptance you guys are exceptions.

@Crimson Raven

I was debating between Minish or demon, but the Minish are so small and cute and the only reason Vaati looks like he does in Minish Cap is because of his evil hat, so I decided to go for demon. I even checked Vaati's wiki page to make sure I was accurate.

Yup, that's exactly why I mentioned magic taking energy, so the big stuff couldn't be overpowered.

So I need one more approval before I'm accepted? Gotcha.

[Sigil]

@Crimson Raven

Going to have to throw a quick OOPS on that one, then. I thought my CS was accepted in the Interest Check, and put it in the CS. Here it is, below, if something's off I'll alter.

Cricket

Name: Cricket

Age: 17 (but looks younger)

Sex: Male

Race: Sheikah (Sheikiri?)

Handedness: Right

Appearance:

Cricket is of average to shortish height and lean, with thick white hair, tawny skin, and wiry muscle. His eyes are his most striking feature, red and very expressive, with three triangles tattooed above and a teardrop tattooed below his left eye. His style of dress is distinctive, combining elements of Kokiri and Sheikah attire, mostly colored black with an extra scarf-like bit around his neck that acts as a half mask when necessary. Cricket’s ears are pierced in three places each with small, simple gold rings. A brown hooded coat covers most everything. This is good because he is generally covered with kunai daggers and two particularly large and nasty blades: Sheikah kodachi. The last two are worn openly. He carries a simple, utilitarian backpack that looks like it is made of tree bark.

Inheritance:
Magic Boomerang – At this time, capable of stunning enemies and retrieving objects. Fast movement, long range. Always returns to Cricket, regardless of those pesky laws of physics.

As he gets better acquainted with the item, upgradable abilities may include manipulation of flight path, attacking multiple targets in one throw, and spontaneous generation of three such boomerangs.

Personality:
In contrast to the reputation of his people, Cricket is warm and friendly, and just a bit of a showoff. When he’s on the clock, however, he’s all business and no emotion. This has caused people to wonder if he has a split personality, and this is exacerbated by his lack of speech. He adores music, either performing or listening to it.

Brief History:

Cricket was born into a clan of Sheikah, living in secrecy in the forests near Kokiri lands. The two peoples were more than a little wary of each other at first, but over time they came to be allies. The Kokiri helped them adapt to the ways of the forest and attune their skills to their new environment, and in return the Sheikah defended their forest and taught them the ways of stealth and martial prowess. In these hard times, sadly, even the innocent must take up arms from time to time. As generations passed, the two cultures diffused, resulting in a more forest-running and musical clan of Sheikah, skilled in the use of Kokiri tools in addition to their own. Deku staves became an easy to make and use weapon alternative, and deku nuts became a staple product.

Cricket received a calling; a bit of wanderlust, if you will. Among his own people, he is just now considered an adult, and as such is allowed to explore the wider world. He is compelled to walk the path of the Hero, such as it is in this day and age, even if the means to the ends aren’t always that heroic (in the classical sense). He believes that there is a great future ahead of him, so long as he follows these compulsions and gut feelings. Curiosity as to where this takes him next drives him forward.

Personal Goal:
To see what he can see, help where he can help, and bring what he learns back to his people.

Three strengths:
1. Extensive stealth training – Sheikah Rule #1: Don’t be seen, don’t be heard.
2. Agility Monster – Fast, dexterous little lunatic, Cricket is an accomplished acrobat and is most proficient with short blades and thrown items.
3. Musically adept – Plays several instruments proficiently, particularly his fiddle. Reads music and can genuinely feel emotion from the notes.

Three weaknesses:
1. Mute – Cricket cannot or does not speak, for reasons unknown by most outside of his clan.
2. Race – Sheikah are distrusted by many, and he cannot hide his appearance short of magic.
3. Apparent Age – Cricket is considered a man by his clan; he is old enough. Unfortunately, he looks like a kid and is often treated as such, even by individuals that can look past his heritage.

Greatest Love:
Good music. Cricket is drawn to it; listening to masterfully composed and performed music is worth as much as gold to him.

Hates the most:
People who are unnecessarily cruel to kindly, chirping crickets. Bastards, all of them.

Ancestor:
Impa, Sage of Shadows and Royal Guardian

Fun Facts:

For some odd reason, crickets seem to like him. He will often walk out into a clearing in the dead of night, sit down, and play short chirps rhythmically on his fiddle. A truly remarkable chorus of the little guys respond, creating an awe-inspiring nocturnal symphony. He is rarely without one or two on him, who appear to know when he needs to be quiet. They seem to take care of themselves. It is unknown why this phenomenon occurs, or if he has some kind of unconscious control over them. Regardless of why, it has served no actual practical purpose thusfar, aside from being fairly impressive and a little creepy. It earned him his public name. His birth name revealed only to his clan, maybe a trusted few.

Cricket doesn’t speak, communicating with hand gestures, facial expressions, and occasionally his music. He is multi-lingual, being familiar with Sheikah, Hylian, Ancient Hylian, and Sheikah hand signs. Good luck getting him to translate for you, though. Sleeps in trees, rafters, or other high places when possible.

Inventory:
Kodachi (2), Kunai (8), Deku Nuts (20), Deku Stick, Finely crafted fiddle (in case), Some rations, large blanket, pen, ink, and papers in a scroll case. Oh yeah, Magic Boomerang.

Rupees: 50

Theme song:

"Shadows", by Lindsey Stirling. I try to imagine the percussion done by rhythmically chirping crickets.



It was a tossup between this and "Danse Macabre". Let me know your opinion on it.
