Fantasy CAINHURST: A Dark Character RP! [Closed!]

[MagicPenguin]

Heyo. Glad to see you're still kicking.

I might've missed the boat on this. Not sure if you're still accepting, or if you already have an older brother, but if you need a Xander to your Camilla, let me know. I can probably write the role passably well if you want it.

Hey MP
Im always gonna make room for old BH'ers. I'm completely maxed on Cainhursts. Would you be interested in say, captain of the BloodGuard or something like that?

 

[MagicPenguin]

What kind of character would you need to fill that role? Is he/she basically just the head of the royal bodyguards or do they have more responsibilities than that?

There's more deets on the lore page about them if you've seen it, but long story short they're the super cool elite soldiers/guards everyone wants to be because they're so stylish and strong.

So you'd be a cool guy/gal. The coolest one.

I could dig it. You have room in lore for something equivalent to FE's wyvern rider class? I'd love to write a dragon rider, but if not, I can just do a paladin-esque thing instead.

Full dragon Dragon no, don't see why no to a horse sized Wyvern.

Is something like this alright with you?

Sure!

Hey All! Our RP is starting shortly (aiming for Monday) and we have a FANTASTIC group of people, but I actually have a space for a specific role: A Member of the "Bloodguard"
The Lore is below. If you're interesting on being a member and reckon you could smash a Character sheet out over the weekend, let me know!

"Impress me."

The elite combat mages of Hollowvale, the Bloodguard are recognized throughout the Land of the Dead for their opulently lavish robes of deep crimson and their unflappable attitude to all that dare stand against them. Trained from a young age in the traditional dark arts and combat skills of their Cainhurst masters, the Bloodguard boast versatility not only as mages excelling at Necromancy and elemental magicks, but as masters of the blade. While lacking the raw strength of the superior Dark Maidens, the Bloodguard are nonetheless seen as the pride of Hollowvale's military and a example of what Blackrock can offer children with magical ability. The mindless Undead can be a powerful foe, but an Undead army with a squad of Bloodguard is a fearsome thing indeed.

To be a Bloodguard is to be acknowledged as the best, and the right to be a part of their order is hotly contested amongst the trainees and guards who frequently compete to be a part of them. The Bloodguard take their role seriously - with some even going on to become part of the Dark Maidens. Defeat means Death, and To show fear means you can expect to be cut down by your fellow Bloodguard without hesitation or mercy.

Not to mention, they're awfully stylish.

Love to have you!

Basically in the Redguard we have the Captain and a Combat tutor, so we'd really love a "standard" Bloodguard to fill out the team!

 

[Athanas]

Can I make a gloryhound with some stigma attached to him due to his, well, lack of style?

Tell me more

 

[Avari]

[WillfulWren]

It's gone midnight where he is if I remember rightly, so he probably went to sleep

Time zones are.... Fun :\

 

[Athanas]

Dammit!

No, No, I'm awake, it's just that my net is absolutely shite. So, basically, he's a half Goliath. He was raised to be a great warrior and a very decent commander. However, his appearance and personality make him...Well, less than forthcoming. He doesn't really care for the opinions of others, however. He's trying to make a fortune and make a name for himself, and being promoted to bloodguard helped considerably with it.

Edit: Holy shit is that Silver hello there

Now, I hear you ask-if he has no mind for court politics, how on earth is he still a bloodguard? And the answer it, well, he's very proficient at what he does.

Appearance for reference:

Okay this would be a perfectly fine idea but I really just need a normal BloodGuard who fits more comfortably with the lore lol

 

[Athanas]

Is that much emphasis put on decorum by the royalty? Feh, no wonder the Kingdom's going to shite.

I'm willing to change if you think it will be a problem. Make a properly posh git.

The BloodGuard are elite Dark Mages with a mastery of both the blade and magic, they have excelled in their previous roles as standard guards/mages and hand picked. They wear the ornate crimson robes which are as much armor as they are symbols of office and somewhat decadent art. Form and function. Grace and murder.

The actual personality is fine. They don't need to care about politics, or the opinions of others (this is usually a bonus) but they have to fit the BloodGuard template. Because that's what I need right now, so if you're happy to work within that concept it can be worked out.

 

[Athanas]

Sure, that works for me!

 

[Avari]

Coooo, there's a link to the OOC and CS and such on the front page. Let me know if I can help with anything

 

[doneanddusted]

hey Avari, I know you're closed but I was wondering if I could either be join or be on a waiting list or something. I've wanted to rp with the people i know and like for a while, aha

 

[Viper Actual]

Avari I'm withdrawing my interest. Work schedule changed drastically so it wouldn't be fair to you or the others if I commit to something when I'm getting over-extended, sorry.
