Riki Lazarus

Name: Riki Lazarus

Age: 28

Race: Elf

Appearance:

Riki

Role: A Hunter and a Botanist.

Bio: Riki is both a good hunter as well as an exceptional Botanist among her small community of Elves. She grew up in that small community, in the middle of a dense forest, far from all other civilization. She longed to leave, explore and seek out new things, especially plants. When she turned 17 she left her village and began explore the reaches of the world, cataloging all new species of plants she came across. But the world was only so big, and by the age of 26, she’d come to realize that there was nothing else to discover. In her 9 years abroad, she refined her hunting abilities as to provide for herself and lower the cost of her lengthy expedition. After returning home, she quickly put together an encyclopedia of all that she’d found. Two years later she heard of the portal that lead to a new world. Within minutes, she had her things packed and set off to put in her application to be a part of this grand adventure into a strange new land. She doesn't know for sure why she was chosen to go through the portal, but if she had to hazard a guess, she would assume it was for her supposed expertise in botany.

Skills: Identifying plants and their various uses. As she always says, it pays to know what can kill you and what can heal you. She’s rather good with a bow and arrow, as that’s the easiest way to hunt. She can produce crude hunting snares. Also, she knows the basics of how to wield a dagger.

Magic: Riki has an elemental ability. She can create fire; however, her flames are no bigger than the size of a baseball. She has no control over it once it leaves her hand and it usually dies out within seconds. She has no desire to use the ability for violence and uses it solely as a torch in dark places or to light fires for her camp.

Equipment: A bow and quiver of sturdy arrows. Her encyclopedia. A small dagger. A small satchel of special plants with various healing properties. Another small satchel with some snare materials. And a new note book with some charcoal, a quill and ink, so she can catalogue new plants.

Other: Even though Riki spent many years abroad and met many different kinds of people, she still has a very blunt way of speaking. She says what she means and doesn’t particularly care if she offends someone or not.

Sounds interesting to me. I've already got some ideas spinning in my head for a character.

The Night Watch 1913

The night was colder than Straya had anticipated and she fought back a small shiver. The large bonfire that was sitting up ahead looked more and more inviting by the minute. Standing in the middle of the old dirt road, she scanned the area carefully. Nothing and no one could be seen near the fire, but that didn’t mean that it wasn’t still a trap. She grabbed the hilt of the sword on her back and unsheathed it, the metal singing in the quiet night.

Cursing under her breath, she decided that if this was a trap or a test of some kind, that there was no use just standing around like a tree. Best to spring it and pay the consequences. She gripped her sword tightly, and began walking toward the fire. Her eyes swept back and forth, searching for any signs of danger and her ears were perked back, listening for anything other than the crunching of dirt beneath her muddy boots. When she reached the circle of warmth from the blazing fire, she expected something to jump out and attack. Yet nothing did. Odd.

With her hand still gripping her sword, she pulled out her watch and looked at the time. “Hmm, only ten more minutes until the meeting.” she muttered under her breath. She turned her back to the fire and crouched down, still searching the darkness for anything out of place. Taking a deep breath, she made her decision.

“I’ll give it 15 minutes. If no one shows, then it’s back to the hunt for me.”

The Night Watch 1913

Straya Valenti

Name: Straya Valenti

Age: 25

Height: 5ft

Weight: 115lbs

Melee Weapon:
Her long sword is her primary weapon and was once her fathers before his death. She keeps it razor sharp, since she has a tendency to sharpen it when she’s bored.


Firearm/Ranged Weapon:
A hand crossbow which she uses to either kill weaker varieties of demons from long range or to slow down the faster varieties.


Other Equipment:
A small dagger (essentially a utility knife).
A sharpening stone.
A compass.
A map.
A set of Yes-No stones.

Hunting Specialty: Demons

Bio: Straya grew up with her father in a lonely cabin in the middle of a forest. Her mother had died in childbirth, so it was just the two of them. Living so far from any sense of civilization had helped her to grow up fast, learning how to hunt, scavenge and fight, just like her father.
Shortly after her fifteenth birthday, she had gone on a three-day hunting trip; only to return to her father’s rotting, shredded corpse. Consumed by grief she wrapped what was left of his body in a sheet and followed the tracks of what had killed her father. Several miles from their cabin she came across a cave, one that held a group of demons. Letting out a fierce battle cry, she rushed them, her father’s longsword raised over her head.
Straya slaughtered the demons that had murdered her father, but vowed to rid the world of all demon-kind. She only returned to the cabin to retrieve a handful of supplies before setting the small structure ablaze and leaving it behind.
Since then, Straya has hunted down any demon that she catches wind of. Her hatred of demons is also the only reason she is a part of The Night Watch.
Straya is a very cold and serious person, and is hard to get close to. However, she is an incredibly loyal person and determined in all the she endeavors to do.

Sorry for taking so long, I was having some issues deciding on the bio for my character.
Hope this works. If there's any issues with it, please let me know so I can fix them.
