RP Based off the World of Andarun: ANDARUN - A World Reborn (wip)
sheesh
Due to the nature of this RP, the details of the story differ slightly, depending on the Homeland and class of your character. For simplicity's sake, the default alignment of your character will be 'The Dominion of Arya'.
It started in the most peculiar of ways. Though perhaps not the most unusual, depending on how you see it. A border town, within the northmost reaches of the Dominion comes across a decaying body of a soldier floating down the stream. Now, such floaters though very rare, was not unheard of by villagers. The truce between the three kingdoms opening up travel throughout the lands, giving the keys to errand adventurers to go out treasure seeking. This floater would have simply been dismissed as another stupid hapless soul, had 'he' (if you could give dead bodies gender) been discovered by simply folk.
But as fate would have it, a particularly enthusiastic patrol captain and his men spotted the body as they were making their last rounds for the shift. Excited at the unusual sight (now, you must forgive him as patroling borders can be really boring as of late; the most action a Dominion soldier would have these days would be to see their Bloodsworn counterparts and hurl insults at the pointy ears. Unless one were placed within Wretched infested territory, but that's besides the point). Now, upon recovering the body and searching it, our dear captain discovered a tattered map carefully rolled up in a worn but otherwise intact leather casing, effectively protecting it from the stream waters. Eyeballing the corpse, our dear astute Captain deduced that this man was no simple adventurer. Though very much faded, one could assumed that he wore the colours of sorts. The body belonged to a soldier (there were also other trinkets found on the body to confirm the suspicion). Though from which army was the question.
Fast forward a month or so (cause I'm really lazy at story-telling), the body and map now resides within the walls of Midranthos, capital of the glorious Dominion. Ambassadors from the other two regions had all but confirmed that the soldier belonged to neither one of their armies. Embroiled within their own internal politics, the Vanharen and Aryan Lord was quite intent on dismissing the peculiar situation; that is until their Bloosworn counterpart remarked that the map depicted a region towards the north of his Kingdom. Mr. Vanharen snorted the claim away and took his leave, all dramatic with his green smoke and eerie theatrics.
Now, one must understand, that the people of Andarun understand, that their world does not end beyong the Skyreach Mountains north of the Bloodsworn. One should understand however, that it is extremely difficult and nigh impossible to cross said mountain range; as only a very small handful of people have ever done so. Reports of what lay beyond, was simply that of a winter wonderlan- I mean, desolate landscape, with nothing to offer.
Long story short, Mr. Bloodsworn happened to know of some relatives who had been across the mountain range, (oooh destiny oooh plotfixing! oooh!) and thought it would be interesting to see what they could find. Mr. Arya, acting very "Arya-like" was not impressed that Bloordsworn had made up his mind based on Arya's own findings. Hence, he declared that he too will send an emisary to the north.
You my friend will be playing this Aryan hero ^-^! I will be playing your Bloodsworn guide *-*!
~Character Application~
For this RP, you may choose any of the 'normal', 'special' or 'elite' classes.
Just a basci character skelley will do, as below:
Name:
Age:
Gender:
Homeland: (The Bloodsworn, Arya, Vanharen)
Race:
Class:
Equipment: (Please be mindful of the limit one person can carry
; )
Appearance: (at least 3 lines, include a picture if you have one. Otherwise, add more description to define your physical features)
Personality: (Optional, can be discovered through the story anyway ^^)
Character Background: (Character background and history)
Name: Talyndra kaelas`Farandir
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Homeland: The Bloodsworn
Race: Anarhin (Sun Elf)
Class: Stormlord
Equipment: Silver bound spellbook, Heartwood dagger and Ghastwood elven longbow. Talyndra's ivory colored mage robes is embroidered with gold threads and woven onto an enchanted leather bodice to make it more resilient than ordinary robes. Compact slingpouch with usual traveling supplies. She also wears a slim black choker, inlaid with a swirling milky white gem.
Appearance:
Talyndra is blessed with high cheekbones, chestnut brown almond shaped eyes and small slightly upturned nose giving her a rather impish look. Olive coloured skintone further solidifies her heritage as one of the anarhin. Luxurious amber coloured tresses falls to the small of her back, which she usually braids at the sides to keep in check. She stands at a towering 5 feet 6 inches, glorious! Talyndra possesses a petite body framework with just, only just, enough curves in the right places.
Personality: (Leaving this out for now)
Character Background: Talyndra, younger of only three children born to Lord Tasaldan Farandir, was what her people would call a larle`. In commons, bastard. Lord Tasaldan's only wife, having passed away giving birth to his first daughter. Talyndra's mother was a mere maidservant of the house, was compensated before being sent away shortly after Talyndra was born. Given the fact that she was the younger of two daughters, and an illegitimate child, Talyndra was fortunate that her father chose to acknowledge her; but only to the extent of providing for her needs and education. Despite his generosity, any sort of inheritance was entirely out of the question, not that Talyndra minded. Without the burden that usually comes with being a 'proper' child of a prominent elven lord, she was mostly left to her own devices. This gave her ample freedom to pursue art in all its forms, for she loved it; and would've spent all her days immersed in it if not for the fact that she was sent to Heartfire Academy to learn the ways of a Stormlord.
Right at the onset, Talyndra proved to be trouble, trouble of a different sort. Talyndra's powers were sporadic to say the least. One moment, they would fail her completely and the next, they would be blazing uncontrollably albeit powerfully; to the cost of damaged school property. Her mentors blamed her lack of concentration for such uncontrollable magic. Despite that, she managed to complete her studies and even work, at her father's behest (well, he didnt speak to her... he wrot- he bade one of his servants to pen a suggestion), as a tutor at the academy. Talyndra knew her father was slowly wiping his hands clean off her, gradually cutting her off in what he deemed was the most ethical way.
Talyndra's bow was given to her by Tanadris, her older sister and also Calenfar Captain. Also the only person in the whole House Farandir who didn't look at her askance. Tanadris taught her how to wield it, and though Talyndra's mastery of the elven longbow is fair, it is nowhere near as skilled as a regular elven Ranger.
Name: Leo Everett McGill
Age: 27
Gender: M
Homeland: The Dominion of Arya
Race: Human
Class: Nak Techturgist
Equipment: Most of what Leo carries is stored in his fire resistant black leather lab coat, which comes with many pockets, and his back pack along with a satchel he keeps on his waist. For the most part, his especially dangerous things go in his satchel of fun surprises, while his backpack comprises of living materials such as food and water, books, and a roll of cotton that he occasionally sleeps on during trips. But, above all that, he keeps his control gauntlets for his golems in his bag as well.
Leo stands at 5 feet and 11 inches tall, with a lithe and muscular build, and a skinny frame to go with it. There are blots of skin that are darker than others, which are the results of chemical - or fire and ice burns. He has a lighter shade of caramel for a complexion, disregarding the burn marks. Most of his skin is rough and calloused as a bi-product of manual labor. His hair is a mess of curly dark brown hair, and his hair practically matches his eyes. What stands out most about Leo, even when just casually walking, is his permanent wolfish grin, which appears even when he's not trying.
Personality:
Leo is easygoing, mischievous, upbeat, energetic, funny, flirty and loves to tell jokes constantly, even if they aren't particularly funny. Leo is genuinely very intelligent and honest, and cares about his friends and family. He sometimes doesn't think before reacting and he enjoys pulling pranks on people, especially those who he doesn't like. He hides a hurt and angry demeanor with humor, so it's extremely hard to tell what he's feeling since he's a constant joker. Leo has been shown to have a serious side, which happens when he is angered by someone or when the situation calls for it. He is also seen building small bits of machinery and equipment and is very skilled and serious about his work. Even with his mischievous personality, Leo is also a leader.
Character Background:
Leo was born in The Dominion of Arya to the mechanic, and Alchemist Esperanza McGill. When he was little, he had an unstable babysitter named Tia Callida, . She was watching Leo because she needed money to pay off a debt she owed to some criminals. She tried to "kill" him multiple times by attempting to put him in an active fireplace and by letting him play with knives. She also tried to make him poke a rattlesnake, which he refused to do. She claimed that the reasoning behind her actions was that so Leo would become strong at a young age, despite how dangerous it was, even for making someone strong.
At the age of eight, his house was invaded by a gang of 4 thugs. At the time, his mother was sick and his father was, like at birth, no where to be found. At this time of night, young Leo knew that something was wrong, and sneaked down into his mother's work space, not unlike that of a rogue, and stole some of her most dangerous chemicals, which were illegal, even by Alchemist standards. Not understanding what he was doing, when he came across the thugs in his home, he threw a vial, which set off an explosion and lit the home on fire. The thugs had died, yes, and Leo was far enough from the blast to live without injury. But his mother was sound asleep, and died in the fire. His Aunt, Rosa, turned his family against him, even at his young age, which caused him to be sent to Foster homes.
The death of his mother haunted Leo for years. The emotional strain caused him to run away from multiple foster homes. After running away for the sixth time, he was 16, and at the same time, he had a brilliant mind and a knack for constructs of mechanical nature, often assembling and disassembling them quickly for fun, and to test him self. He stole small items and used broken toys to make something completely new in his spare time. His biggest struggle was the fact that he often had to beg for coins, and that only ever got him so far.
It wasn't long before he decided to do what his mother did as an Alchemist, except this time he'd work for Arya. With his intelligence, he was often praised for his quick learning aptitude by those who taught him alchemical arts. By the time he was 20, he decided to use his building skills, and the coins he had save for the 4 years of his life to do something different. He constructed a golem. Argentum (Silver). Argentum was comprised mainly of steel as a body, and Mythrill covering crucial points to his body such as his joints. Argentum was painted Silver. At 22, going on 23 he left Arya and his job. Taking his saved up money, most of his necessities - golem included - and left.
During his time in Arya, he was known as an engineer. An architect and mathematician, a scientist too. He was called back by a noble named Francis Armsworth a few years later. He is told Leo that he was willing to pay a large sum of coin if Leo would design a new type of catapult for him, and seeing as how Leo had been living out in the wild doing nothing, he decided to take the opportunity to work for Arya once more. He made a weapon that fired metal balls, roughly 50 pounds each, via chemical combustion, which resulted in the metal balls fired coming out flaming and orangey hot so they burned whatever they touch, on top of the fact that hit with a little more force. Above all, it was extremely accurate, coming with crosshairs built onto the side. He called it, appropriately, a Leoblaster. For such a construct, Leo was paid lots of gold coins. Enough to construct a second golem, Aurum (Gold) Aurum was originally an idea, but the capitol he received allowed him to make an adamantine giant. He only had enough money to comprise his body and shield out of adamantine, and he could've made more for him and he continued his work under Francis. But he decided not to.
Even by Alchemist and engineering standards, Leo was a genius, and was noted for his lack of keeping a log for his life threatening experiments. Before he could leave back to inhabit the wilds with his newly acquired golem, he was called back once more, and this time, it was by The Aryan Lord. He was called to discuss a quest of a special manner, and the Lord believed he was smart enough to cruise through it.
But, long story short(TBA), Leo annoyed the Lord to the point where he was sent on the quest with the intent that he would be out of the Lord's hair.
Golems:
This is Argentum (Paint him all Silver). He stands at 9 feet tall and dual wields steel blades. He can run at a maximum of 25 km/hr. His combat capabilities are implied, but ultimately unknown.
Name: Argentum
Height: 9'
Equipment: Steel and Mythrill body. Two steel blades.
[/heightrestirct]
This is Aurum before his gold paint. He's comprised of all Adamantine. He is slightly taller than his counterpart, standing at 9.5 feet tall (Whoa! Big difference!). He's very slow, but can take lots and lots of punishment without being knocked over. He can run at a maximum of 15 km/hr. He only comes equipped with an Adamantine shield. With no clear weapon besides his hands, his combat capabilities are unknown.
Name: Aurum
Height: 9.5'
Equipment: Adamantine body, adamantine shield.
