Fantasy "The Islands" [OOC and CS]

That Mystic Writer

"I myself, am strange and unusual."
Welcome to the OOC and CS for The Islands RP! You can go ahead and post your characters here.

You can also contact me here too if you have any questions, comments, or concerns. Thanks!
 
nope, put as much detail as you'd like, as long as you have the basic name, gender/pronouns, age, which tribe you belong to, appearance, personality, etc. As long as you give us a general idea of who your character is it should be fine!
 
I'm just curious, is there any cultural differences between the four islands that should be kept in mind?
 
Here is my character!

Information:
Name: Amara
Tribe: Water
Age: 19
Zodiac: Cancer
Height: 5’9
Pronouns: she/her


Appearence:
Eye color: Deep blue
Hair: light blonde hair, about waist length, super soft and silky, often tied up into a nice braid. Always well-kept.
Clothing: A long, dark blue and silver lined cloak with tall black boots
Tattoos: swirling tattoo patterns covering her whole left arm, and a water droplet on her hand
Jewelry: Wears many rings on her fingers, and she has two piercings on each ear.


Personality:
Amara is a silent observer. She rarely ever talks. With her silent presence, comes an incredible mind. She is very wise, and her brain is always whirring. In the inside, she's broken. Sad. Scared.

Backstory:
Amara grew up in a very uptight and evil household. When she was only 4, her mother and father divorced. In the process, her mother took her twin sister with her. Amara was devestated. Her twin was her best friend- the only person that gave her true love. Of course, at the time, her young self didn't realize what was going on. When her sister and mother left, it was only Amara and her father. Oh how evil and mean that man was. Everyday he treated her terribly, making her do all of his work. Everytime she tried to speak, her father always silenced her. All he thought was that she was a waste of space, an object, a nobody. The years went on, oh how long those years were for Amara. One day, when she was 15, she ran away from her father. She didn't care if death would take her as his own- all she wanted was to get away from her father. Those years destroyed her- making her weak and unstable.

Name: Haven Alistair Gray
Age: 28
Gender: Non-binary
Pronouns: he/they
Sexuality: Asexual
Romanticality: Panromantic

Appearance: He is young and smooth skinned, with a soft round jaw and patient blue eyes. Their eyelashes are long and delicate, and their eyebrows are delicately trimmed. His cheeks are also littered with freckles, and when they smile you can see two big dimples. He doesn't look it, he is physically really strong, and he is also pretty athletic. His cheerful appearance comes off as friendly and outgoing, but sometimes you may catch them lost in thought. Its said a deep sadness is hidden deep beneath their eyes, but no one is ever eager to say anything about it.
Marks/Tattoos: Has a scar on their back, and two on their chest.
Wardrobe: Wears a light blue and white cloak for official representation, political meetings, and other formal events. Casual wear includes white t-shirts and darker blue skirts, or black jeans, and shoes.

Personality: Friendly and courteous. They are looked highly upon. He doesn't really tell jokes often, but he is polite, kind, and outgoing. He is understanding but sometimes may be a little confused. Deep within them there is a quiet sadness lurking, and sometimes he is pulled into bad memories. When conducting official business, they handles thing well. When he is alone, it is like taking a mask off, and the sadness seeps through. A depression he lets no one know off, for it is unlike people of the wind to feel such despair.
Likes:
A big fan of tea, you can always catch them with a cup of tea at official meetings and events. It seems like wherever they go, he has a cup or a tea pot with them. He also loves going on walks, eating some delicious blueberry cobbler, and reading various books and scrolls. Also likes to carry a staff around.
Dislikes:
As friendly and outgoing as they may seem, they don't like long social interactions, for it is very draining for him. He also dislikes pushovers, drinking coffee, bears, and small cramped spaces.
Strengths:
Agile, Smart, Patient.
Weaknesses:
Depression, Loyalty, Trust
Abilities: Their staff helps them harness the power of the wind, which through it he can use various elemental spells.

History: Most of their trauma comes from before he joins the council protecting the earth. Failure to receive acceptance from their family for their gender identity has weighed crushingly on his mind. They often think of their family, hoping that if one day he could, he'd be able to make them understand and become more accepting. But then their sister Elena passed away, and like a rift that event divided and split his family apart.
Family:
One mom, One Dad. Two brothers, and a deceased sister.

Roles:
The Leader of Wind, aka The Wind Leader


Hopefully this isn't too much.

I love this so much! It is so detailed and well thought out! I am looking forward to your character!
 
+:ANNOUNCEMENT+:

I have been getting some questions about the race of the Leaders, so Flooded and I have decided that we want the Leaders to be a type of guardian angel (they were sent down to protect Earth from falling.) Each leader (and citizens) will all be made up of the same race. So, they will all be the same creature. Hopefully, this clears out any confusion you may have. Please, continue to send me questions, comments, and concerns to help make this experience stress-free and enjoyable. Take care!

General
Name: Umari Buldrad
Tribe: Fire
Gender: Female
Pronouns: She/her
Age: 24
Birthday: March 29th
Sexuality: Omniromantic Omnisexual

Appearance
Hair color: Ebony black
Hairstyle: Elbow-length, silky straight hair, usually in a side part and often in a braid
Eye color: Dark brown
Head shape: Heart
Eye shape: Almond, close-set
Skin Color: quite pale white
Height: 5’7
Build: tall, thin, and not very curvy
Weight: 152 lbs
Tattoos: She has a wyvern twisting up and around her left arm, its head ending at her shoulder. Its fire spills up her throat and ends at the base of her chin. She has an image of a phoenix on her wrist, and a rose at the nape of her neck.
Piercings: Both ears have piercings all along the outer rim, with all sorts of chains and such hanging from them. The left side of her nose is pierced as well.
Clothing: mostly wears neutral colored clothes, often she’ll be wearing a black turtleneck, black jeans, and either a red Fire cloak or just a simple black cloak.

Personality
Attitude: Pessimistic
Likes:
  • Starting fights/ antagonizing people​
  • Getting attention, even bad attention​
  • Cats- or what she’s seen and heard of cats on earth​
  • Coffee​
Dislikes:
  • People who ignore her/ look down on her​
  • Humans​
  • “Goody two-shoes”​
Personality: She is easily goaded and often comes off as aggressive and unconcerned for her own safety. She likes showing off to people and loves a challenge, especially one she knows she can win in the end. She has built a wall around her emotions, carefully hiding them away from the public eye. All they see is the surface; the brash, short-tempered girl who will do anything to prove a point. This is somewhat of a defense mechanism that started in her childhood, stemming from the emotional abuse that she suffered as a child.

Past
She spent the majority of her childhood in the shadow of her brother. She never thought her parents loved her as much as her perfect, outgoing, smart sibling. Her parents weren’t intentionally this way, they didn’t realize they were hurting her, but either way Umari eventually started to develop a grudge against them. She did everything she could to get their attention, even putting her life in danger just so they would pay attention to her, but it never lasted for long.

Name: Raina
Alias: Mira
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Role: Leader of Water
Height: 5'4 (162.5 cm)

Personality: A bright, cheery, and optimistic girl. Raina is immensely empathetic to any living thing around her, willing to offer help whenever she can. She believes that every cruel act has at least one understandable reason behind them, leaving her as hopelessly idealistic. Though she's willing to use her abilities to subdue others, Raina does not wish to enact excessive pain or harsh punishments on them. As a result of this, however, the tribe has come to love their leader for her kindness and tranquility. No matter what happens, it's as if Raina never falters; for she knows that if she comes across as unnerved, the feeling will transmit to the subjects that see her.

Backstory: The vast majority of the Water Tribe only know their leader, Raina, by name and the stories surrounding her. As for the jovial, pink-haired girl, they only know her as Mira, a lovable citizen living among them. This is how Raina has lived, and how she plans to live with her tribe. With only a few trusted individuals knowing her true occupation, Raina doesn't want to be seen as some "higher being" compared to the people. She has seen firsthand how many others let the fame get to their heads or be used for nefarious means, and she's afraid of having the same happen with her.
