Theme song: The Sky and the Dawn and the Sun- By Celtic Woman
High is the moon tonight
Hiding its guiding light
High

Heaven and earth do sleep
Still in the dark so deep
I will the darkness sweep

I will the moon to flight
I will the heavens bright
I will the earth delight

Open your eyes with me
See paradise with me
Awake and arise with me

I am the dawn, I'm the new day begun
I bring you the morning, I bring you the sun
I hold back the night and I open the skies
I give light to the world, I give sight to your eyes

From the first of all time, until time is undone
Forever and ever and ever and ever
And I am the dawn and the sky and the sun
I am one with the One, and I am the dawn

I am the sky and the dawn and the sun
I am the sky and the new day begun
I am the sky and the dawn and the sun <!-- end of lyrics -->

Background:
The Altair and Cohen families have ruled their own kingdoms for centuries. The Altair family, hold a gemstone that the Cohen family desires- to show their ultimate power in the form of magic. The Altair do not want to use the gem, so they figure out a way to hide it from them forever. The Cohen are enraged that the Altair family has hidden the gemstone and they initiated war.


The lands lay at a stand still, not knowing when the attack might be coming, but if it was coming...it was going to mean war.

Summary-
Abandi is a strange girl scarred by the murder of her parents. She has mysterious powers and fighting skills that in a world of darkness and blood, allow her to survive. Her older brother lost an arm fighting in the war that his father and mother were killed in. Knowing they would soon die, they imbued both their children with two halves of a sacred gem. The dark half went to their daughter Abandi and the light went to their son. The war has long been over and the siblings have been traveling from town to town, the brother finding work to take care of his "ill" sister. They meet interesting characters along the way and find out the war was only just beginning.

Abandi- Young girl about the age of 16. She has gray eyes and black hair very fair skinned. Born at the worst time possible, Her brother is her only living relative. She possesses mysterious powers that only seem to present themselves when she is in terrible danger. Abandi is very childish, acting about 7 years old at all times. She has a darkness inside her that attempts to convince her to destroy and kill everything and everyone she knows or loves. Abandi is very good at fighting the urges, and only looses control in times of great emotional distress. After Meeting Aki, she tries to learn to control the 'Dark Abandi' but does not have any success. Aki crafts her a magic amulet that allows her to summon the Dark Abandi to protect her brother and friends. ((there is the possibility of a romantic interest between the Dark Abandi and Aki)) (Played by Esthalia)View attachment 11641

Gemini - A woman in search for the man who kidnapped her lover years ago. She is about 25 with long brown hair, blue eyes and tan skin. With a hot temper and a conniving mind, she is set on killing the man responsible for her heartache. Knowing that her lover was either killed or forced to join the enemy army, she kills only after seeing her opponents face. She believes if he is alive, he is looking for her as well. Background: After her lover was killed she was overtaken by depression, and in that depression she found hate and the need for revenge on the man who killed her lover. Skills and abilities: She spent time learning to fight with a pair of scimitars given to her by a close, older friend who knew the feeling of losing a loved one, and also knew Gemini was hot tempered and that given time she would look for the man responsible and want him dead. Strengths: She is quick and very deadly with her blades, she has only been in real combat a handful of times but has had barely a scratch from those battles.Virtues: Quiet, even meek looking, so she is generally underestimated in her abilities at the beginning of a fight.

Ryogen- Abandi's only brother and rightful heir to the throne. He understands his sisters special needs and has been taking care of her since they were children. He is a formidable warrior and huntsman. He lost an arm to the enemy when his parents were murdered. He has short black hair and a scar on his neck from training. Bright blue eyes and a need for revenge. Age 23
Strengths: Having lost one arm, he is particularly dextrous with his one remaining hand, and has also acquired powerful muscles. Skills and Abilities: Can hunt very silently, and has a strong sword arm but dislikes killing. Has learnt to barter reasonably well, as well as diffuse possibly hostile situations with his understanding words. Virtues: Very quick to act in any given situation, often to protect others.
Background: Ever since his parents were murdered and he had to flee with only one arm left, Ryogen quickly realised the need to protect his sister. Fearing danger in their own home, he quickly took her and has stayed on the move ever since. Although manual labour is tough, he begrudgingly accepts it out of the love for his sister. However, in his mind he is constantly being reminded of the one who murdered his parents, vowing one day to take up revenge once his sister can finally take care of herself.​

View attachment 11752
( Played by Forte)
Strengths:Powerful magician-when his spells work
Skills and Abilities: Aki is one of the only wizards who learned the sacred art of orb making: the process of
taking energy from a powerful source and holding it idle in a orb until needed for spells or replenishing magic.
Virtues:He is very friendly and kind, almost too kind because he is always getting taken advantage of.
Background:Aki was a wizard apprentice for years, until his master was killed and his spell book taken.
Aki has since been on a journey to find the book and learn his masters spells to surpass him and take on his own apprentice. ((Aki and Abandi grow to be close friends-He learns how to call out Abandi's dark power in times of need to protect everyone, but he is the only one who seems to be able to do it. There is a bit of a romantic interest between Aki and 'dark' Abandi))




Please pm me for acceptance and thanks for your interest!​

Linarrina is accepted as Gemini :) YAY :golfclap:
 
Well, this looks like it could be very interesting. If you'd like, I would be happy to fill the role of Ryogen to help get this thing off the ground and gather some momentum.
 
Please do! just fill out a character sheet for him, feel free to change his name as you see fit and add in whatever extra you'd like without taking too much away from the base character. Mainly, he needs to be loyal and caring for his sister

Plothole- accepted as Ryogen. Just want to let you know Abandi is considered insane. so he has to take care of her 'forever'. She is this way because of the dark half of the gem that is infused with her mind. if i had to use a reference for her it would be river from firefly (serenity)
 
Here is the info for the gods that we reference:
Fleuryn
Fleuryn
is the Goddess of creation, fertility and beauty. She lives for the land and her people, feeding the planet and it's creatures with her magic. After every child birthed, it is Fleuryn who receives praised. With every changing season, there are festivals to celebrate Fleuryn.

Kollidan:
Kollidan is the god of love, lust, luck and fate. He is praised for good fortune, happiness and direction in life. When a couple find love and are married, Kollidan receives praise for bringing them together.

Grygus
Grygus is the god of natural disaster, mayhem, war, greed, strength and pride. When at war, Grygus is prayed to for strength in battle.
 
Quick question - when it comes to currency, what are the units and how much do we have of it?
 
(( i would say go with gold silver and copper- obvious order and weight. I think it would be good to say she had 3 gold peices, 10 silver and 25 copper- she's been stealing shiny coin from people ))
 
I don't know what to put considering the character is made out for me. I was going to be aki. Tell me what I need to do. Its strange putting a character sheet up for a pre made character.
 
lol sorry, you can add to it if you want. That's what I mean, though i didn't say it that way >.< sorry! Let me pm the girl who was going to play him and i will let you know if she is still interested!
 
hey Ashaekin, if you still want to play Aki; It's yours! :D
I'll put your name in the first post!
 
Since Ashaekin never responded, and we desperately need Aki; yes!
