Chapter 1

An Unknown Quarters in Unknown Waters

@Cyrania@Spiritzer

Gwyneira woke with a start to the sound of splashing waves. She found herself in a dimly lit room with multiple hammocks. After a few seconds her eyes adjusted to the dark. To her right side lay a man that was bandaged. Upon closer inspection she saw his face and realized it was none other then the man she had saved by freezing him above water. Cicero Bladewalker. His armor and weapons were nowhere to be found. Even his gambeson had been removed leaving only a dark brown clothing.

To her left lay their unlikely ally. The cloaked man. His bags were gone and only his normal cloak hung nearby. When Gwyn went to look for her own supplies they were gone as well. From above she could hear the thudding of footsteps and men yelling. The creaking of boards was constant.

She tried to think through her splitting headache. She was extremely thirsty. But more than that. She craved something. It couldn't be the vial she had before, could it? As she continued pondering, the cloaked man began to stir. Apparently he had woken up as well. What would they make of the situation they were in now?

Suddenly, they heard the clang of metal on metal about twenty feet from their hammocks. Further down was a barred gate with a single shrouded figure behind it. Two arms hung through the gate and rested lazily between the bars.

---

Would they approach the figure or attempt to climb the stairwell? Or, perhaps something else entirely?

Sorry was working today. I'll post tomorrow afternoon.

Tabula Rasa || Ancient Gods

This CS has been edited from a previous rp. Let me know what you think and any changes I can make.

Telios - The Sun Lord

Name: Telios - The Sun Lord

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Telios' mortal form

Telios' war form

Telios stands at fourteen feet tall, weighing 1,300 pounds. He has a powerful muscular build with blonde shoulder length hair and piercing hazel eyes. His skin tone is tanned. On his right shoulder is a large sun tattoo.

Personality: Telios is a very confident and bold god. He speaks directly, wanting communication to be precise and to the point. He doesn't deal in uncertainty; preferring things to be set in stone. Just as the sun illuminates all things, so he makes his intentions perfectly clear. If he dislikes someone, he tells them to their face. If he falls in love, you'd better believe they're going to hear about it. And he does not give up easily. He likes to watch and partake in elaborate games, testing strength, will and passion. Telios enjoys a good party, loving a good time. He is always on the lookout for the perfect bride and currently had his eyes set on the Goddess of War. He likes getting people to work together for common goals. Telios is protective and caring to the those he loves. If another crosses one of them, he will not hesitate to offer his full support and strike the aggressor/s down with a vengeance. He is bored by politics, but realizes there is a time and place for it.

Major Domain: The Sun.

Minor Domains: The Sky and Purity.

Weaknesses: Telios' major weaknesses are; intrigue, deceit and plots. He sees things from a very upfront view, rarely being able to discern the hidden intentions of the heart. Despite being able to easily illuminate and eliminate direct threats (physical, magical etc.), Telios' status as firstborn heir has blinded him to the threats, trickery, and conspiracies that others frequently utilize.

If other's conspired against him, without the help of faithful allies, his light could be snuffed out. That isn't to say that he is stupid. Only that if someone he trusts or believes to have good intentions turns on him, he would be blindsided by it. Another weakness of his is that any wounds he receives in his human or war form cannot be healed simply by turning into light. God weapons are able to wound him even in his ethereal light form. While in his war form, Telios expends a fair amount of energy and is not able to stay in it longer then a day at a time.

Powers: Telios is a powerful being of light and purity. He uses the power of light combined with purity to banish undeath, darkness and other forms of blight through light and purity. This light can span from a few degrees to thousands depending on the concentration and energy used. His preferred method of attack is from the sky in his personal chariot carried by summoned pegasil. There he can rain down flashes and beams of concentrated light which incinerate objects beneath like heat lasers.

He can fashion energy into miniature suns which explode on impact in a fusion reaction. These can cause enormous destruction beneath. His light can illuminate the darkest of forces as well as pierce through powerful illusions, magical or otherwise. His piercing light sees through the deception.

Solar flare is an ability he can use to blind all manner of enemies with the brightest light imaginable. Even gods are effected by it, and sight is severely limited to them. While in war form, he can keep his solar flare active blinding enemies and allies alike. He can move at extremely fast speeds, turning himself into light to almost teleport across the land and sky.

His skill with the gladius and hoplite shield are nothing to be underestimated either. Telios is able to fight with his preferred weapons at masterful levels.

Concerning defense, Telios is able to form bubbles of hard-light energy that displace physical and magical attacks to a certain strength. His shield burns and deflects most normal attacks before they reach him and as a fallback, his armor can burn the rest. When in combat the intense heat that emanates from himself and his equipment can reach the levels of the sun. Due to his sky domain, he is able to levitate and move objects around him in a large radius.

Name of your Land: Solas

Lands:

The Plains

Cliffside

Solas is a land of plains, rivers, mountains and a vast expanse of open sky. There is only day within Solas, no night. Rivers run through large portions of the land. In the center of the land are huge mountains that can be seen from all around. At the top of the highest mountain is the capital city of Dawn.

There are many cliff faces and scenic views from the heights of the mountains. At the base of the mountains, are valleys that larger bodies of water rest at, flowing into rivers across the plains. These plains span in a circular radius from the valleys in every direction forming a circle around them, in the shape of the sun. All the materials of the land were created by Telios, besides water. These materials were imbued with the essence of his light within them. This results in minerals, plains, rivers and all other objects within his realm to have the essence of purity within them.

People:

The Sun Folk

The main intelligent race of Solas are the Sun Folk. They are a race of humanoids that derive their sustenance directly from sunlight and water. They are slightly wider and bulkier in girth then typical humans and are tougher then the average human. They sport yellow/orange like skin. They were created by the purest of essences of light Telios had available. This results in a race that is incorruptible by outside forces. They do not sleep, but bask in the glow of the sun to refresh themselves. If they do not receive their natural food/water they will perish over time.

Beings: Other beings that inhabit the land of Solas are phoenixes, griffins, pegasil, hawks, eagles and countless other creatures of the air. On the ground are the main food of the predators; the sun bison. They roam the plains and eat of the grass of the fields. Large animals with tusks. They give a plentiful amount of meat to the hunter creatures. For warfare, trained griffins are given armor and used in combat. They are ferocious beasts, with the speed of an eagle, but the strength of a lion. Pegasil are used by scouts, cavalry and even for use domestically. They make for a very effective means of travel. The phoenix is the most intelligent of the creatures and follows its' creator's voice very closely, obeying his will.

Minor trait: Eye for Enchantment - he has experience with the subtleties of magic first hand and can better tell if he is affected by it.

Bio: Growing up in a well to do knight family of the city of Alvion, Cicero desired to be just like his father. Noble, chivalrous, and skilled in the art of the blade. He was enrolled in the knight academy there and excelled in his training over the years.

After, graduating he joined the Alvion guard, engaging in various skirmishes with enemy bandits and thieves. But it did not satisfy his longing for something truly adventurous. He was part of the guard from age 18-22.

At 22 Cicero bid his family farewell and travelled to the land of Roh. He had heard tale of the dangerous Demonfolk who pillaged the lands and wanted to help put a stop to it as well as gain some real combat experience. He was hired by the 6 women to join the human soldiers who did battle with the Demonfolk. Cicero slew many of them and also gained many scars over the next 7 years. He became aquianted with the veteran Manzur Iman. Former commander of a company within Roh's armed forces. He and Cicero took a liking to eachother. They taught one another various skills they aquired and styles of combat.

Over the years Cicero had become hardy and grizzled in combat. He lost many friends in the skirmishes and battles with the demonfolk. On one particular day they were patrolling a potential threat from a lead they had. It turned out to be a deadly ambush. With the use of a tonic his ally gave him as he lay dying, nicknamed thorian's revenge, Cicero was able to eliminate the attackers along with Manzur. The butcher still had many tricks up his sleeve. The two warriors stained the sands with the blood of countless demonfolk. We

When the nightmare was over, they were covered with scars and blood. It was at this time that Cicero decided his time in Roh more dangerous then he imagined. The loss of 15 good men cut him more than any blade ever could.

After the ambush, Cicero received a letter to join a tournament in his home land of Alvion. In all honesty, Cicero was only too ready to leave. He packed his things, said goodbye to Manzur and set sail for home.

He also has a few scars on his face, one cutting through his right eyebrow across his nose at a slant. The scar still remains. Another scar is along the left side of his face into his cheek. During the tournament Cicero a recieved grevious strike on his right arm. Olberion the Unbent broke it with a single strike on his shield. His mobility with it is not what it used to be.

Lol sorry Cyrania. I simply thought it wasn't as effective on elves. Didn't know it could be addictive. I suggest she roll to see if she's addictive. It is part of the vial's side effects.
