@Greenie Ash is accepted. And now for my characters...

Name: Var Atr
Age: 138
Race: Esper
Gender: -
Diamond Color: Orange
Appearance: Var has no definite height due to being an esper who has no legs but he tends to keep the top of his head at 6 feet off the ground. Within his armor and the straps attached is a fiery orange glow.
mage-knight-fantasy-hd-wallpaper-1920x1080-7520_zpsb3b3c162.jpg

Weapon(s): Attached to the gauntlet that is Var's right hand is a round shield crafted out of a bronze alloy. It has been damaged and worn from use against the monsters and training spars.

Constantly gripped in Var's left hand is a spear that has no particularly special qualities. With a 6 foot wooden handle and iron spear head it is strong enough to carry out most battle deeds.

In the event Var loses the spear there is a dagger made of Damascus Steel and etched with patters that look like text, but they are purely aesthetic.

Personality: Being an Esper, Var prefers to talk about philosophy and the meaning of life. He is a very deep individual and anyone who speaks to him normally. The voice that comes from Var is masculine making him accept that people refer to Var as a he. Aside from being masculine, Vars voice is very gentle and calming, he's got a voice that can soothe hectic moments. He is not loud and speaking with any authority is very difficult, he would be described by many as calm. Because he is able to understand many philosophic views he has been the center of deep debates many times.

When it comes to friendship, Var does not understand it. Instead it is one of Vars deepest wishes that someday all species and all people love peacefully among one another. All living things have souls and all of them must co-exist to be able to advance in society. When he spots an argument he does his best to but in and resolve the issue.

Magic: Var Atr has an ability rare among Espers that allows him to use his energy to disassemble his body. This is made possible due to the leather straps that hold all of the parts together. Using this ability Var can put his armor around another provided the person fits within his metal protection.

Skills: When Var was not in combat the sentient suit of armor could be found tailoring for the people, making suits for any use.

History: Var Atr is an Esper that was created by a group of traveling Espers. His crafters were nomads that drifted from settlement to settlement and forged Esper armors for the people of those settlements to act as additional arms. Var was made in Rothendust and was imbued with an Esper Spirit only days later. Soon after his spirit had awoken he found himself taking a liking to one particular human family, the Orminai family. They taught him the ways of combat so to better help fight against the monsters that roamed the surrounding landscape.

When the Orminai family had a child he made a vow to protect this child as best he could. When he wasn't out fighting the menaces outside the settlement he could be found simply babysitting. This child was first living being he grew an emotional attachment to. This child became his reason for protecting the village and he decided to devote his life to protecting this family, which meant protecting the settlement.

Var was alive to see his friends live, grow old, and die, but he was never sad about it. They lived full lives and he fully believed their legacy lived through their children and he'd continue protecting the family. Using his knowledge of combat he became a tutor for the Orminai family children, teaching them philosophy and the arts of combat. He did not demand a high amount of respect but he was given it by his peers because the Orminai family taught their children to respect the Esper for all of his help.

When the armed traveler showed up in Rothendust and offered protection for respect, Var wanted to hear him out. He suspected something from this man but had no basing for his suspicion. Despite this he treated the man with respect as though he were any other living among the people. On the day of the monster attack that allowed for the man to show his power, Var could be found protecting the family he devoted so much time to. By commanding such respect Var gladly gave it to him which made his rise to power all the more upsetting.

When a boy named Belyevor was born in the Orminai family he devoted his time just like all the children before him, but this time there was much less focus on the combat. Acting as a tutor, the child learned any things from Var that would impact the rest of his life. Var and Belyavor both share the same hatred for the lord tyrant, though Var feels more resent due to feeling betrayed. 8 months ago the shadowy figure approached Var and asked if he cared for a diamond. Without words, Var grabbed the orange diamond and before he could ask a question the figure vanished.


Name: Belyevor Orminai
Age: 43
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Diamond Color: Turquoise
Appearance: Belyevor is very muscular and stands at 5'11"

Weapon(s): With a scabbard mounted on Belyavors back he carries a two handed 3 foot broad sword with a double edged blade made of a sturdy steel crafted by Espers. Because the sword was crafted by Espers it contains magic power that allows it to stay sharp and also cut through magic energy. The magic within the sword can be worn out over time and regenerates when at rest.

Personality: Belyevor is not a very vocal person, he likes to think things through before he speaks about them. Time wasted babbling back and forth is very frustrating to Belyevor, it would be best to get to the point as soon as possible. That is not to say he dislikes idle conversation, but if there is a purpose at hand then he would much prefer the point be presented as soon as possible. When Belyevor is caught in conversation he sounds relaxed and calm, but when he needs to take charge and speak loudly he does so with great authority in his voice.

When insulting him Belyevor will ignore it as best he can, he would rather not make enemies, especially in Rothendust where people are under enough stress. If you compliment him he will seem to ignore it, he doesn't much care if people approve or disapprove of him, but he does appreciate the occasional compliment. When with friends he appreciates a good drink of ale but he hates getting drunk, he'd rather stay in the right mind.

Magic: The wind can be summoned and manipulated by Roth. He chose not to hone his skills with magic very well but after receiving his diamond he has been able to use magic very skillfully. He is able to create barriers of wind that can fend off many attacks or he can create gusts to make himself faster.

Skills: Roth was designated the city cartographer, he is not only very skilled at map making but he always remembers his maps. On the event he can't remember a map he made he holds copies of his maps in his home. Coming with cartography he is also a noteworthy artist.

History: Belyavor was born as the only child to a family of warriors, each being trained in combat by the Esper Var Atr. His family wanted to have more children but after the Lord Tyrant had taken control of the city the idea of bringing new children under his rule dissolved that desire. The only hope the parents had for their child was that he might grow in a peaceful environment, though with the events that had unfolded it was very doubtful. Thankfully for the Orminai family, Var Atr was there to help the child grow into a strong man.

Surely enough, Belyavor proved to be a smart child. His tutor Var was teaching him how to talk causing him to speak very proper while his parents worked under the lord of Rothendust. He had very little quality time with his parents which made him think of Var as his father at an early age. He still had a fair amount of respect for his father but it was a sad truth that Var spent more time with him.

When Belyavor was 9 he had begun to draw and he seemed to have a natural talent for it. Var saw this and nurtured his talent, encouraging him. His parents also saw this and did their best to support him between their time working and resting. His father worked as a day guard defending against any monsters that may attack during the day. Because of the protection offered by their tyrant there weren't many attacks anymore, but on the rare occasions they still attacked. In one of these attacks Belyavors father was killed, devastating his mother.

A few years later when Belyavor was 16, guards arrived at the Orminai household with a request. The guards spoke to his mother, still in a state of depression because of the loss of her husband. They wanted to use Belyavors drawing talents to map out the city by request of their lord. While his mother declined the offer, they guards were under orders to take Belyavor by force, but it was not necessary as he agreed to go of his own will. Maybe it was because he was still young but it sounded like a fun task. Var accompanied him and helped him map out the city, which turned out to be a long task. It was more complex that mapping the roads, he was to map out everything, even the main buildings and an underground tunnel system.

As more buildings were erected, Belyavor was called on to map them and update any existing maps. It became his official job in Rothendust to be the cartographer of the city. As each one was hand drawn, it was a long and arduous task walking through the city and sketching out the surroundings. Still, he took solace in the fact that his maps were used by the people rather than the tyrant.

Work slowed after a few years which made Belyavor take up a new job. He became a guard just like his father. As a day guard he was taught how to use a sword that Var had given him. The sword was made by an Esper that Var had associated with in the past that was designed to fend off magic. Monsters did not use magic, but the sword was not exactly created to fight against monsters. Still, it was a good and strong blade that he used to slay many monsters. Granted in the modern day there are fewer monster attacks and more the people assaulting them to keep them at bay.

3 months ago when Belyavor was walking on his own he found himself near a dark passage that lead underground where a dark figure was hiding. He could see the eyes and hands but nothing more. In those hands a diamond was presented to him and a voice that resembled that of a child asked him to take it. Belyavor questioned this, but the figure refused to respond. Sure enough, he reluctantly accepted this diamond and to his surprise it filled him with more power and a drive to do more with his life. What he was driven to do was unclear, but he knew that this jewel meant something, it had to have some significance.

dark_knight_ver_2.jpg

7'5 Foot Tall
245 Pounds

Name:

S'Kar (Scar)

Age:

16

Race:

Esper

Diamond Color:

Light Blue

Weapon(s):

Large Greatsword, Which he channels most of his magic through. (Seen Above)
Clawed Gautlet. His free hand wields a gautlet, modified to be similar to claws. This helps him climb, or cut any unsavory people getting too close to him or his boss.


Personality:

Unlike many other Espers, S'Kar is extremely aggressive and rude. He quickly judges people, and hates most other races, besides Kindreds. He is often racist towards the other races. He believes humans are greedy, horrible people would turn him to scrap if given the chance. He thinks elves are a stuck up, selfish race that think they are Superior towards the other races. Lastly he thinks the Dragoons are really just beast, ready to snap back into the wild with their dragon ancestors.
S'Kar is rather quiet as well, but will speak his mind if he must. He tends to act before thinking it through.
S'Kar holds his only friend, Victoria, close to his figurative heart, and wont hesitate to cut down anyone meaning her harm.


Magic:

When S'Kar become in possession of the little Light Blue Diamond, his once red fire that kept the walking suit of armor together grew to a blue, increasing the heat of his flames and making him a walking furnace.

The diamond enhanced his fire ability, which was once used as a simple tool to help smith weapons, into a weapon itself. He can propel fire from his gauntlet or produce a wave of flame from his sword, even smothering it in flames if he wishes.

Skills:

Out side his combat skills, S'Kar makes a rather helpful forge hand. He can help speed up the process of weapon making, and in the process make the weapon harder to break.
He also has a soft spot for kids, and works as a good play toy.


History:

A rather young Esper, S'Kar was made in a clan that consisted of Espers and Kinder, that lived not far from the city of Rothendust. It was a rather quiet clan, that worshiped many old gods, and crafted gifts for them, which was what S'Kar was originally going to be. Before S'Kar could be sent to the altars outside of town, it was attacked by a ravaging group of monsters. S'Kar was soon created to fight the monsters. He served as a guard, with many other Espers and Kindreds, until one day, only a month after he was created, the clan was attacked again by monsters, this time the clan failed, and soon their little town was over ran.

In a despite attempt to save as many lives as possible, S'Kar went house to house, looking for survivors. Finally finding a family of three, a Kindred mother, a Human father, and their daughter, Victoria. As the three attempted to escape the chaotic city, Victoria's father was slain by a creature, with more underway, forced S'Kar and the others to flee. As they left, Victoria's mother was slashed by a creature, before S'Kar could kill it. Giving her daughter to the walking armor, she gave one final request.


Protect Her.

Doing so, S'Kar flee'd the town with the 3 year old Victoria. Either by pure luck, or an outside force, the pair made it to the city, where S'Kar found work as a guard and smith hand for a short, fat human smithy. One day, as S'Kar and Victoria looked for a dry spot to call home on a particularly rainy night, the pair passed a shadowy alley, where an even shadowier figure asked a simple question.

Care for a Diamond?

135 lbs.
Various tribal tattoos around her body.


Name:

Victoria Oak-Armor

Age:

18

Half Kindred/ Half Human
Human is dominate.


Gender:

Female

Diamond Color:

Gray

Weapon(s):

Sickle like Sword. Balanced enough to throw.

Dual Hand Crossbow, Easily reload-able.
a0c0fce25bd72e56dbbd32f7330cc6dc.jpg

Personality:

Unlike her "Big Bad Dad" Victoria is alot more friendly, and easier to get along with unless you have something she wants. She is generally a kind hearted person, who is very flirty, and energetic. She also finds it very amusing to annoy S'Kar, yet tends to dislike when others tease him. She doesnt put people in categories based on race, and generally likes everyone, unless your filthy rich.
She has a fear of monsters, and an even bigger fear of losing S'Kar, who she sees as her only true friend.
She is also bisexual, where she takes advantage of those attracted to her as she steals their money.


Magic:

She has yet to find out if she has the Kindred ability of talking to the dead, her theory being she is predominantly human.

Though she does have a kinda passive ability of having faster reflexes, being slyer, and is harder to spot than most other people. She also is quite fast, mostly due to her running from guards.
Even since she got the diamond, she gained the ability of turning invisible momentarily, making even the keenest eyes look over her.


Skills:

Victoria is very skilled at acrobatics and climbing, which she uses to travel the city quicker than most people.

History

She doesn't know much about her past, mostly due to S'Kar shielding her from it. She knows for certain both her parents were gone, and S'Kar was in their place. She was raised in the city, and had many friends of other poor families children. The kids would play games around the streets, giving Victoria a better knowledge of the streets. One day, her friends found out she was half Kindred, and many of her friends turned to bullies.

Those that didn't bully her, left her alone completely ignoring her. This drove Victoria to only associate with S'Kar whenever he wasn't busy with the forge. In her free time, she started stealing. First it was small things, like bread and cheese. Throughout the years, it escalated to clothes, gold, weaponry, and jewelry. S'Kar doesn't approve, which causes Victoria to keep this side hidden to him.

I like them, they're just missing one thing that I posted in the rules ^^
 
There we go xD Could've sworn that wasn't there last night 0.0
 
I love that part of the rules. *is a real stickler for rules*
 
With that they're accepted! Normally I'd nitpick the history is a little short but they have a shared history, so piecing the two together fills it out nicely.

oh that looks sweet :D
 
I like it. So is the architecture primarily Egyptian, or is it up to us?
 
Take Egyptian and Gothic and mix them all up and then you get Rothendust. Everyone is welcome to take creative freedom as well.
 
I know this is a double post, but I wanted to give some information about how we're doing this story.

I'm going to try getting this written out in an episode format to allow for breaks in the story and should we need to do a time skip we can make it feel more natural to the story by doing so between chapters.

I will have a narrator who will also act as a "guiding voice" for the plot, the narrator is actually the figure that gave our characters the diamonds.

If by chance you have an idea for a chapter once we get one finished up shoot me a message here or in PM and we can discuss, I am perfectly ok with players putting focus on their characters and this RP is no exception.

And also... @KJDarKnight Haven't heard from you, are you still thinking up a character? No rush I just want to know ^^
 
*Peeks in, totally not intimidated by the fact that everyone else seems better than me*

I'm pretty interested, but what's your opinion @Squee one younger characters, I like playing younger characters (like 13, 14 ish) because I'm not really that mature in real life.....So yeah D:
