Hey Brave, how many spells would it be ok for some kinda sacred magic used to have?
It depends on their use and effectivity. Some might do a 10 but minor effect spells, and some might just do 1 VERY effective spells. Some might do 10 daily/regular use spells or just 1 powerful combat spell. If you can justify its use, then it is good to go.
Name: Ivan Rischter, The Victor's Hand
Race: Human
Age: 34
Gender: Male
Equipment: Ivan wields two broadswords in battle. These broadswords are named Twilight and Eclipse. These swords were crafted by dwarves and elves in cooperation, resulting to it shining under the moonlight and it being easy to handle.
His set of armor is also made by the same crafters, but with the moonlight shining feature removed.
Magic: Ivan uses only a few spells of Anima magic, namely:
Counter Ambush - Ivan thrusts his sword into the ground, sending out a magical force that knocks enemies away from him.
Hasten - Ivan becomes faster for a short period of time, allowing him to clear out enemies in a shorter time.
Barrier - Ivan becomes enveloped in an invisible barrier that protect him from harmful projectiles. This can last as long as he wants, however it drains his energy the longer it stays.
Bio: History is written by the victor. That is what Ivan usually says before venturing into a battle.
Born in an ordinary household, Ivan had no choice but to work hard in order to sustain a stable lifestyle. He trained to be a knight for many years, and was successfully taken in by a noble. This noble soon died and he was reassigned to another. And the sequence continues.
That was, until Ivan became rogue and wandered around the world. He had everything he needed - money, knowledge and his set of equipment. He travelled through many cities, seeing all the different cultures and traditions of each. But he also saw the dark truth of mortality - being forgotten. He remembered all the nobles he had served for and their graves, their only proof that they were in this world.
Ivan didn't want that. He wanted to be remembered as something great, something that should not be forgotten. He wanted to be a legend. And in order to do so, he must be in every impactful happenings in the world. And he did, he went into wars and won them, into gladiatorial events, in revolutions and monster hunts. He soon earned the title of the Victor's Hand for most of the sides he took gained the upper hand. But still, he did not feel as if it was enough. To him, it did not seem that he will be remembered in a great way.
Hearing the call of Tremshire, he immediately headed there. He felt as if in this one, in this quest, was his desire to be remembered to be fullfilled.
Appearance: Ivan is not likely to take off his set of armor, not even his helm. But when he does, his looks are very distinguished. Below is the picture that shows his face.
A fantasy rp set in a world where magic and technology coexist. A problem has been rising and the nearby city calls for a plan of action. Check it out here http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76451-into-the-flames/ooc.
Questions are also welcome here.
Stories tell of a huge creature dwelling in the Ember Peaks, terrorizing those foolish enough to venture in its territory. A creature so terrifying, that the mountains had been left alone for so many years now. But the stories had been forgotten, lost in the flow of time.
A group of miners returned to the mountains, only to be welcomed by the creature's wrath. More incidents have been occurring there since - a bunch of wanderers getting burnt to a crisp, a mere patrol troop fleeing in fear and more. This again, led to many stories about the fierce creature. A terror it has been for too long. But that is about to change.
The nearby city, Tremshire, called upon those who are skilled to see to it that this creature is stopped. The city's council offered a huge reward for those who will successfully finish the task.
Locations
The Ember Peaks
•The Ember Peaks is a mountain range far in the west. Its tops are usually lined with a glowing mixture of red and yellow, which has been told be lava. The mountains have tunnels on their feet, which used to be mines for the nearby city of Tremshire. There have been people who climbed to the top, however that was before the rumors of the creature began.
City of Tremshire
•Tremshire is a city that thrives on trades and mining. It has a rich environment, enough for the city to still maintain economic stability despite being deprived of mining. The citizens are hospitable and usually hold a feast every 11 days, as a thanksgiving to the gods and their assistance.
Fort Goldface
•Fort Goldface is a building outside the city's borders. It was used as a place to rest and stop by when the mines of Ember Peaks were still of use. Now, it is used as an outpost to see and warn anyone who plans to enter the mines. This is also where the brave travellers will meet.
Silverbeard's Mines
•The mines are named after the dwarf who started digging the holes into the mountain and finding its riches. It uses to be Tremshire's main source of income and resources, but since the creature appeared, it has been abandoned.
Magic
The use of magic is very abundant in this world, some use it for their daily activities, some for their leisure and some in their professions. Despite its common use, magic is not inborn and must be studied in order to be able to utilize it. Though many have been taught the basics in their early age, some have no experience on magic at all.
Types of Magic
There are three types of magic in this world, mainly:
Anima Magic
•This is the most common type used. Anima magic focuses heavily on the use of the elements for almost anything - offense, defense, utility. This type of magic has many basic spells for almost anyone to use, yet it also has the most complex ones, which requires years of study.
Sacred Magic
•This magic is commonly used by those following the Order of Light, like paladins and priests. It focuses on the use of powers of gods and spirits, unlike Anima magic. This magic needs to be studied before use, due to the risk it possesses.
Rune Magic
•This magic is rarely seen, due to it being complicated and the lack of information some has. This is an ancient magic, dating back since the creation of the world. It uses runes, which can be found in different sources - ancient writings, books, terrains, or even marked in the parts of the body. This magic is almost like Anima magic, but gives off more impact and effectivity. This being said, only a few who are skilled enough are able to use this with ease.
Races
There are many kinds of living civilized beings in this world, each one unique and different.
Humans
•Humans is the most abundant race by far, usually taking up most of a city's population. They have been showing progress in all kinds of fields, but there is one thing that they are in the lead - technology. Though technology in this world is unlike ours, the latest creation that they have made is a fully functional giant steam golem.
Elves
•Elves are the long-eared counterpart of humans. They are usually attuned to nature and magic, and most of them move with speed and grace. Though their looks might make them seem useless in combat, they have proven that like books, they are not to be judged by the looks.
Dwarves
•Dwarves are usually half the size of an average human, and most of them have long locks or beards. They are the brave and loyal mountain dwellers(not to Ember Peaks in this case) and are usually the better smiths than most. They have a little problem about treasure obsession, though.
Vix
•The Vix are just like humans who grew the ears and tails of a fox. The number of tails usually tell how many decades they have lived. Though being aligned with mischief and trickery, they are quite the opposite - they trust too easy and are kind to a fault. Unlike other races, they can easily detect if magic is being used or has been used near them.
Fiern
The Fiern are humans with very obvious feline properties(or simply a nekomimi). Despite usually being called cute or adorable, they possess strength twice that of human's.

The country of Cherieth is a medium-sized island located on the far west of Verattia. It is governed by three large kingdoms, Norka, Sorga and Fibra. These kingdoms do not have any conflicts with each other, giving Cherieth a peaceful environment. Well, that is until the dark forces appeared. Different kinds of monstrosities assaulted cities and small towns, creating chaos and fear throughout the land. What once was an orderly peaceful country is now in shambles. Now, the different kingdoms have arranged that in order to regain the old state of Cherieth, they must wage war against these creatures. Sending armies to the scattered nests of monsters, the age of peace was over and the time for war began.
You are part of the 55th army of Fibra. An army which everyone is required to have an eagle tattoo. An army filled mostly with military reserves. On your way to Moerg, a town located far from the borders of Fibra, you were ambushed by a horde of monsters. Swords here, arrows there, the scenery became a bloody battlefield in an instant. After hours of tireless fighting, you eventually defeated the horde. However, this costed the army more lives than they would have spared. You and a few are left living, but you have nowhere to go but Moerg. Supplies were destroyed by the battle and whatever was left was of no value.
Will you survive or will you fall just like your comrades?
