When Choosing an Element:


The element that is given to you by the goddess closely aligns towards your personality. For example, one with a strong, passionate character would be ideal for fire, one with adapting flexibility would be aligned with water, one with a generous, caring personality would be light. One with an unmoving resolve would align with earth, while a free roaming spirit would be correct for wind, and someone aligned with darkness would have a cunning intellect. Remember, how you choose your element shows how you control it as well.


Using the element:


Just like every person on the planet, your character is new at using magic. You'll grow greater at it over time.

Sebastian Othres

​

Age: 20


Element: Darkness


Personality: Sebastian manages to be a charmer that keeps his distance from others. He seems nice enough, and has a weakness for kids but this guy has his guards up and learning of his past is out of the question.


Strengths: Somewhat versatile he is capable of both physical and mental feats, but his intellect is what shines through most.


Weaknesses: Not one to form bonds


Family: Father and younger sister, mother deceased.


Occupation: works with The Protectors of The Faith


Bio: Grew up on an island and was taught about the god Ander and all he had done for the people, bringing them magic and keeping balance in the world. Was quite devout to his beliefs, even with magic no longer part of his world, until when he was young and he lost his mother to an illness and he wanted to hear nothing about gods when they would let good people die. When his father deemed him old enough, he was told the truth, that magic could have cured his mother, and that his father was working to restore magic, and had hopes for bringing her back. He started working with him and the Protectors from them onward. It was discovered that his younger sister is showing symptoms of the same illness that killed their mother recently.


Weapon of Choice: Twin daggers (Until he finds his katana)


Equipment: Always has a book on him, survival essentials, personal effects.

 

[Caldwell]

Character Sheets:


Character Name: Kaine Gestalt


Age: 17


Personality: A kind and caring soul, Kaine's personality comes off as gentle. Always attempting to think around conflict, people throughout Kaine's life has called him a wuss, and a weakling. Goes out of his way, even for strangers, to help others. This may seem like a burden to many, to Kaine it seems like it's just one of those things you just do.


Appearance:

Has more of a curly hair style, along with heterochromic eyes. One blue one brown


Element: Water


Strengths: Great at swordplay and the shield, although mostly the shield. Proficient in map reading and strangely enough, the flute.


Weaknesses: Has a very distinct fear of harming another human being, thus being very hesitant when it comes to battles in a life and death situation. Also, tends to be pushed around, especially by anyone taller, older, or female. Just a guy who does anything for anybody willingly.


Family: Vannessa Gestalt, sister: Twin sister who once traveled with Kaine, now somewhere in the mountains under the guise of "training."


Parentseceased


Occupation: Although he prefers to be called an adventurer, Kaine is a map seller who attempted to be a knight, but couldn't get over harming others. Currently with no home.


Bio: Born into the middle class, Kaine once lived in Cul'riah with his family. There, his parents worked the fields while his sister and himself studied in the local school. One day, a small burglary occurred in the village late at night. In a place with no knights or guards, this was common. However, when Kaine's father put up a fight, the men decided to kill him. Hoping for no witness, the men killed Kaine's mother as well. Luckily, that night Kaine and Vanessa decided to play around the houses late, but returned to witness the aftermath of the gruesome scene. Years pass, and the twins entered a knighting school in Luriah, hoping to arm themselves so as they could protect what's dear to them. Unlike his sister, Kaine was a lot more hesitant in the more hands on lessons, and was eventually kicked out. His sister, dropping out so Kaine wasn't alone, journeyed with him to different towns and such, living off of the cheap maps Kaine sold for a living. Eventually, reaching the ages of 17, Kaine had become well known for his map making, and his sister well known for the amount of bandits she's captured. They soon split ways once Vanessa received a letter from the King's stewart, hoping for her to enroll in the kings guards.


Weapon of Choice: Broadsword and a heater shield, which is just plain with no decorations nor engravings.


Equipment: A wide array of his finest maps, along with plain parchment and ink and quills. Also carries around a small canteen of water, a sheathe for his broad sword that he carries on his hip, and some pocket change of gold. Along with a long wooden self carved flute with many animal and fairy tale etchings. All carried in a pack.

[cool cat]

Character Name: Roxxane Lexanna


Age: 17


Appearance:

(Profile pics rule xD )


Personality: Roxxane can be hollow and stubborn, a protective shell she uses as a defense. If you stay with her long enough (if she lets you live) you'll discover she's intelligent and clever. Once she's attached to someone, she defends them and grieves deeply if they somehow perish or become deceased. If you think you're stronger than her or smarter than her, you'll be soon tied to a chair with a knife to your neck. She has a certain way of knowing what gets through to a person the most, so you wouldn't want to be on her "list".


Element: Fire


Strengths: Roxxane is highly skilled in sneaking and assassinating others, striking at weak spots near and far.


Weaknesses: She fears the day her father may come back and abuse her, and can be easily tricked by the people she loves and trusts.


Family: She has a father that used to abuse her, and (if you count it) a boyfriend, Jake, who is away at the time.


Occupation: She recently quit her job as an assassin, but made sure she had enough money.


Bio: Roxxane was abandoned by her parents, and was woken up by her new colleague, Jake. She was supposedly knocked out by her parents, and they carried her away... for a reason? Roxxane can't remember her past, declaring it "not important" as the years went by. The only thing she remembered was the beatings she used to suffer. On a date with Jake, she discovered that he was a vampire... Just like her. They ran away, faking their deaths, and have been running ever since. Jake began a job as a merchant, and had to stay in her hometown of Foutloos.


Weapon of Choice: She carries a staff she calls her "Doom Staff" around wherever she travels, spreading rumors it holds her magical abilities as she goes, to protect herself from danger... Her enemies go for the staff first.


Equipment: She brings about 1500 in currency, her Doom Staff, her mother's wedding ring, and the essentials needed for a camping trip, such as food that will not rot.
