Absolute Grace — Roleplayer Guild

Sorry about the confusion. Yes there are only four summons per summoner, however as is also stated in the first paragraph, the first summon has the capability to evolve into what I am calling the 'fifth' summon, since it will undergo some mega changes in power, appearance and personality.

Lowest= 1 and 2
Middle= 3
High= 4
Highest = 5 (the evolved form of 1)

The very first summon should definitely be much weaker than the fourth summon. I was planning on the 1st summon being the very first one that our characters summon when they were young children.Meaning that the 1st summon is low level since a child cannot expect to summon a high level summon.

This is where the whole 'words have power' thing comes into play. When a summoner calls the name of a being from the aether zone, that being is summoned forth and into the human world. And yes, the marks do come into play here, for without one even if a name is known the being cannot be summoned. The marks basically mean magic and so our characters are a tiny bit like witches, wizards and warlocks, but the only thing they can do is summon beings which are the ones who perform magic based on their type.

The number of marks doesn't matter, characters can have as many and/or as few marks as desired, but the marks must relate to the type(Spirit, Air, Water etc.)

Attack = Things like Claw strike, kick, the usage of a weapon if the summon has one, etc
Defence = Things like shield, phase, block etc
Special = Things that have something to do with the summons type so say poisoning is a special ability used by nature type summons. Bindings could be a special ability used by earth type summons etc.

I will post my characters CS soonish which will show an example of what I expect. If there are anymore questions, please ask away :)

Arcana Magica - Summoners
Words have power, but only those born with the marks of the Magica are able to bring life to them. The Summoners, as they are commonly known, are a rare collection of people who can summon their own familiars from the aether zone of Arcana. Each summoner can have up to three summons, the first summon being the only one able to evolve into an ultimate form. Summons are classified into six types and while one summoner can have an assortment of types, only those who stick to one particular type are classified as the strongest Summoners for that type defines them as a person. Their soul element.

Arena [+]

Plot:
The six characters enter a summoners battle at the Rune Arena and each face off against one opponent before moving on to the second round, a round that has never been seen before. Six contestants in a single summoners battle. As the second round begins and upon calling forth their summons, something unexpected happens. Due to the combined summon of each of the six types within close proximity of each other, the gateway between the two worlds rips open. This unnatural occurrence cannot be reversed or closed and thus both worlds are negatively impacted and if the gateway remains open then both worlds will be torn asunder. However, there is one way to close the gateway. The six contestants must band together, journey into the aether zone and find the six Arcana Lords. Only with their power will the gateway be sealed and both worlds saved.

But, was the occurrence just an accident or was the whole thing planned? Why and by who?

If you have any plot ideas, I would love to hear them :)

My Little Writing Sample [+]

Approaching the tall ethereal human was in itself a daunting task. He made it just a meter away and let out a constricted caw to announce his presence. Piercing violet eyes swirled with magic as the sorcerer stared at him causing him to take a step back. A dark smirk formed on thin lips.
“You dare to approach one such as myself, little crow?” The words reverberated around the stone room followed by a chuckle. Finding what little courage remained, the crow began his request in caws and cracks. A brow rose, a frown formed and with the flick of a wrist and a rush of magic, the crows squawks changed to form the words spoken by man.
“We shall try that again. Now what is your request?” He asked and sat back in a throne like chair which appeared upon a click of fingers.
“I- I wish to take the form of man.”
“And in return?” The emotionless question came and after a pause, the crow answered with a sigh.
“Anything...”
The sorcerer considered the answer while he sat lazily, his chin elegantly resting on an upturned palm while the other hand tapped against his knee, weighing options.
“So be it, but in return I will give you orders and you must carry them out, no matter what.”
“I accept.” The words left the crows mouth and instantly afterwards the room around them blurred and dulled to a navy blue. Nothing else existed. The sorcerer stood and in a flash, a contract appeared in his hand. He knelt down in front of the crow and plucked the left wings flight feather, then poked it into his chest until blood was drawn.
“With feather to sign and blood to bind, sign here.” The contract was placed at the crow’s feet and he took the feather in his beak and signed, Corbett. Both contract and feather caught alight with a purple flame and the ashes floated into the sorcerer’s hand.
“Now sleep, little crow, for the morrow brings with it your new form.” The words faded out and the crow’s body grew heavy. Falling onto his side the world became black.
