Someone up for "Fate"?
Gavin's next post may be quite small due to the focus shifting to Phoenix's and Elspeth's meeting - if that's okay.
Phoenix’s senses were disoriented and sounds felt distant. Upon opening her eyes she saw the walls of the machine, she could hear some sort of commotion – people shouting that something was wrong. Had someone told them to turn it off? She shook her head, but the world didn’t seem to clear. It felt distant – as if the world was slowly drifting away from her. And she wondered if this was how her death truly was. Perhaps disintegration was painless, and it meant slowly losing her world. Yet if there was no pain from disintegration, why was she still suffering from the splitting headache she had received from the metal walls.
The world slowed in motion as she began to fall backwards as the ground disappeared beneath her feet. The world of metal was replaced with bright blue. She could feel the wind whipping through her hair and she was enveloped in the sensation of falling. Instinct took over - habit developed from running through the High City. In seconds her feet slammed into the ground. Her body took the impact - the shock spreading throughout her limbs. Her muscles and bones ached as she remained still, crouched close to the ground. Her eyes focused on the ground – as the green abundance of grass that was spread beneath her palm. Her fingers curled around the plant life. Never had she seen so much green – except for when she had made her escapades through the Capitol.
Her brain cycled through many thoughts and questions. Was this heaven? Why did she not feel dead? Was she truly a spirit because she could feel the grass? Perhaps she was alive and just lost in her mind? But if all this was true – why was she bleeding?
Lifting her other hand, she placed it on the back of her head, trying to assess the damage to her cranium. Her gash in her head would take quite some time to heal. And while the fall had not killed her, her body still ached from the impact and that too would take recovery time. Even if she was dead and this was the afterlife, she sure didn’t feel that she had the energy to move very far from her spot. With the thoughts trickling through her head, she lifted her head to get a better look at the world around her. There before her – not too far away – was another person. A girl who was very different from any resident of the High City.
Gavin had taken off immediately towards the town marked on his map. The map provided him with the information he needed to participate in the quest. He knew where the rumors were. He knew of the legends that and rumors that were spoken by the royal family. Yet, while wise men had put together this map, he felt that he was going about this in the entirely wrong way.
If he was to participate in this chase just like everyone else, it could possibly take years to produce the true artifact. Years were exactly what Gavin did not have. He would see Vincent ascend to the throne. So perhaps his job wasn’t to the truth from the lies. If he produced the most credible and believable artifact the game would be over.
Or would it? Perhaps the old king was insane – but cunning. In order for this plan to work, Gavin would have to fulfill his two orders: find the Thief of Time and eliminate anyone in his way. So if he could just find the one person most likely to go after the throne, his job could become a whole lot easier. Finding some legend and killing some exiled prince – now that seemed like the jobs he was used to being sent on.

Bump
Awesome characters. I'm totally excited to dive into this roleplay. :)
Her days of waiting, of being locked in a cell, were over. Life in the cold depths of the Capitol – the center of the High City – hadn’t been too different sleeping on the streets. However, she hadn’t seen the sky in so long. She missed the sun – the mornings and evenings of watching the sun disappear at the edge of the world. She missed running over the rooftops, the wind chilling her skin. And now she would never see this world again. She had made a mistake and she would surely die. Her punishment would be death, and the Seven Sins would not be gracious enough to grant her one last request.
Now was the time. They had drugged her – how and when were unknown to her. But they had taken her from her prison and transported her somewhere else. Metal walls were now her cage – and they seemed to hum with energy. Gathering strength, she pulled herself to her feet. Her hands were free, no longer cuffed together to prevent her from escape. Circling the area, she tried to find an exit, but the walls were seamless. But as time drew on, the hum seemed to grow and she could feel the vibration of the floor beneath her. The only explanation she could come up with was that she was in a machine. The ground shuttered, throwing her into one of the metal walls. Fear filled her as the temperature began to quickly rise.
Over her beating heart she heard a loud buzz and the sound of static. “Prisoner 162 found guilty of thievery and treachery against the system. The Seven Sins have blessed you with disintegration.”
The words chilled her to the bone. Being of the High City, she knew that she possessed certain traits that people of the lower worlds did not have, such as being quicker to heal, the ability to withstand great falls and heat, and agility that aided in scaling walls. Such traits made the High City prime for providing the world with the rogues and warriors they needed. But there were limits to such abilities. And in a world full of those with gifts, even to those who were strong were in danger. However, there was no way to survive disintegration. Out of all the options of how to die, she did not want to be pulled apart atom by atom – to leave nothing behind. The thought was too much to bear. And to die in such a confined space … all she wanted was to be free.
The floor beneath her rocked and her cage grew louder as the gears whirled and electricity crackled. And then the world around her went quiet. The world turned white as a resounding bang resounded through the air. The machine rocked back and her head slammed into the metal. With that her world went black.
The old man was insane. That was all that Gavin could think as he listened to the rumors that coursed around the castle. People still found it difficult to believe that the King’s brother-in-law had not been given the crown. No, for now the kingdom could only be ruled by a regent. This regent was Vincent Avondale - the King’s brother-in-law and a man who would have to fight for the title of King just like every other poor soul. But, that’s where the problem really was. What sort of irresponsible king chose his heir by sending his subjects on a wild goose chase? It was beyond ridiculous.
On top of the strange happenings, the man had found himself involved in all of this. He had been called back to the castle, away from his missions and the life he had begun for himself. He had left his home to come to his brethren. And it was here that he was tasked with participating in the wild goose chase. There were too many holes with idea. How would he prove he had brought the Regent the thing he was looking for? How many people would come to the castle with an old relic that they believed to be “from the future”?
“Excuse me, Sir Gavin.”
The man turned his head as he was approached by a messenger. Grabbing letter out of the messenger’s hand, he glanced at the words scribbled upon the scroll. With his map in hand, he moved from his position against the wall. He had his orders, and he would be wasting time if he didn’t begin the hunt for this fantasy called the Thief of Time.

Sounds good. I'll get to work on the first post then - and I should have it out before I head off to an evening work shift.
Exiled
The Westlands had once been a peaceful kingdom. For thousands of years it had grown with prosperity. But such a utopia cannot last for long. As the years dragged by, greed grew in the hearts of those closest to the royal family. The queen's brother was one with such a heart. He conceived a plan of betrayal and deceit, for simply killing the king would not be enough to give him the throne - as his subjects would then most certainly rise up against him. No, he could not kill the old king just yet. That fateful night of his uncle's betrayal forever changed the young crown prince's life. Not only did he witness his mother's murder, but he was framed for the very act. Beloved by his people, they could not bring themselves to call for his execution, so the young prince was stripped of his title and exiled from his home.
Years have passed since then and the king has grown old and ill. With the king upon his deathbed, the kingdom believes that their next king will be late queen's brother. But with his last breath, the King announces a challenge. The one to find and return a legendary artifact, the Thief of Time, to the kingdom will be crowned king. Word of the challenge has spread far and wide as rogues to royals hunt for the legendary item. So it makes sense that such words have reached the exiled prince's ears. After all, he was raised on the stories of the Thief of Time - an object that is supposed to have come from the far future. He plans to take on the challenge in order to win back the kingdom that was stolen from him and to take his vengeance upon those that are responsible for his mother's death.
But the problem that none of the contestants foresee is that the Thief of Time is not a legendary artifact, but a young woman. She was raised in the High City, a desolate city in the air. It is a place where kindness doesn't survive. It is a place controlled by a notorious group called the Seven Sins. An orphan, like so many, she must figure out by herself how to survive. The best mercenaries and assassins come from the High City; it’s the only possible way to get out of the city and back to the ground below. She however turns to the path of a thief. But in a place so poor, the only things of value belong to the Seven Sins. However, to steal from the Seven Sins is punishable by death. But not all goes as planned and the Seven Sins newest execution machine malfunctions, sending the thief back into the past - specifically the outskirts of a small village.
In such a small village, not much happens. And this simplicity is about to drive one young maiden insane. A young maiden who is strong willed and dreams of adventure finds her opportunity of escape when she witnesses a woman fall out of the sky. She is the first to meet this strange woman from the future. While she may find it difficult to believe the stranger's stories or to believe what she herself has witnessed, she offers to help the thief find a way home.
However, not only is an exiled prince interesting in finding these two girls, but so is the crown prince’s uncle – the current Regent of the land. He has sent out an assassin to find the thief and kill anyone who gets in the way.
But what happens when love sparks in the most unlikely circumstances.

Thief of Time
Phoenix / "Nix"
As a child of the High City, Phoenix has memories of her mother that are few and far between. For at a young age, she was abandoned, left on the streets as an orphan - a simple street rat. Instinct kept her alive, as did her skills of observation. She watched others, learned about what she had to do and what she shouldn't do on the streets. She learned to kill and protect her life. However, her greatest skill was theft. As she grew older, she interacted more with those around her - and eventually they gave her the name of Phoenix after she survived an incident that should have taken her life.
Nix, as she is most often called, aspires to one day visit the world below and live a life far more grander than the streets. And so she devised a plan, honed her skills, and eventually she made the Seven Sins her target. For while she could not fight her way down to the lower worlds, perhaps she could buy her way there. The first time in and out of the Capitol was a success. The second time, Nix was not blessed with such luck. It was not long before her execution was set. However, machines are finicky things for just one crossed wire might mean the difference between disintegration and time travel.

Assassin
Gavin Fitzroy
As a child, he believed that he would grow up to follow in the footsteps of his parents and ancestors. For years the Fitzroys had been loyal servants to the royal family, preparing meals and making sure that the stone floors remained spotless for company. He learned from his father in the kitchens, working to clean the dishes that were dirtied by the abundance of food consumed at each meal. But what he loved most of all was watching the knights. And as a child he wondered if one day he'd ever be able to gain the privilege, honor, and respect that these men had.
His interest in the knights did not go unnoticed and his life changed the day the Queen's brother approached his parents. He showed signs of being a great warrior, that he would one day prove worthy of preserving the peace. With reluctance, his parents gave their approval and Gavin was taken away. But he was not to become a squire. For there was a different plan in mind - for he was taught to be an assassin - not an honorable knight. His allegiance is sworn to the current Regent and the brotherhood of assassins sworn to make the Regent king.

I'm looking for an awesome person who would be interested in doubling up - so we both have to opportunity to play a male and female lead character. So I've conjured up two plots that I'd like to give a go at. Just so you know, life can be a bit busy for me so if you are waiting on a response from me let me know. I don't bite, promise. As for posting length I ask for 2 paragraphs per character. So let me know if these plots spark your interest. :)
Plot One
Fate -- involves vampires, vampire hunters, psychic powers, and reincarnation
Under the cover of night, a war is waged between vampires and humans. As the years have progressed, the humans have developed weapons and strategies to counter the vampires’ speed and power. However, there are some vampires who prove to be more difficult to kill than others. One such vampire leads a clan called Chronos, and she has begun to turn the tables on this war. Elizabeth is her name, a vampire gifted with psychokinetic abilities which she has used to become infamous and slaughter any who oppose her. But a leader is only as great as her followers. At her right hand stands her best warrior and good friend – a lady of unspeakable power.
However, one does not gain fame without creating enemies. Suspecting treachery, Elizabeth’s friend leaves the stronghold to hunt down information and to protect the group that has become her family. But in her absence, the hunters ambush the stronghold – defeating and destroying the very leader of Chronos. With her clan destroyed, she has no choice but to seek refuge with some other clan and wait for the return of her dear friend. And when the time comes, they can reform Chronos and have their vengeance. While Elizabeth’s body may be gone, her soul lives on.
Desperate for new life, Elizabeth’s soul found refugee in the body of an unborn child. And so she was raised as a human. Still, even as a human, she possesses all of her old memories, the mark of Chronos on her arm, and her strange psychokinetic powers that made her infamous as vampire. But unfortunately she finds that her powers are not as strong or as easy to control as a human – and for some unexplainable reason she is immune to a vampire’s bite.
Twenty-one years after the destruction of Chronos, Elizabeth has resigned herself to living as a human. However, on her way home one night, she is attacked by a vampire. But before she becomes this vampire’s lunch, she is saved by her old friend. The friends have only a small moment to rejoice in their reunion, as two hunters show up – given the task to not kill the two women but to capture them alive.

He plans to take on the challenge in order to win back the kingdom that was stolen from him and to take his vengeance upon those that are responsible for his mother's death.
But the problem that none of the contestants foresee is that the Thief of Time is not a legendary artifact, but a young woman. She was raised in the High City, a desolate city in the air. It is a place where kindness doesn't survive. It is a place controlled by a notorious group called the Seven Sins. An orphan, like so many, she must figure out by herself how to survive. The best mercenaries and assassins come from the High City; it’s the only possible way to get out of the city and back to the ground below. She however turns to the path of a thief. But in a place so poor, the only things of value belong to the Seven Sins. However, to steal from the Seven Sins is punishable by death. But not all goes as planned and the Seven Sins newest execution machine malfunctions, sending the thief back into the past - specifically the outskirts of a small village.
In such a small village, not much happens. And this simplicity is about to drive one young maiden insane. A young maiden who is strong willed and dreams of adventure finds her opportunity of escape when she witnesses a woman fall out of the sky. She is the first to meet this strange woman from the future. While she may find it difficult to believe the stranger's stories or to believe what she herself has witnessed, she offers to help the thief find a way home.
However, not only is an exiled prince interesting in finding these two girls, but so is the crown prince’s uncle – the current Regent of the land. He has sent out an assassin to find the thief and kill anyone who gets in the way.
But what happens when love sparks in the most unlikely circumstances.
She offered him a smile as he stared at her a bit bewildered. "You have several questions but that's only to be expected. My name's Deneva - and you're currently in my apartment. It wasn't too hard to get those... thugs to leave you alone. So I brought you back here for the time being." She grew quiet as she thought about what to say next. How could she confirm that this man was the one prophesied about. And how could she avoid chasing him away. "Caelyn was it? How are you feeling? I'm not an expert at healing - but I should be able to at least lessen the pain."
