ACCEPTING The Shards (Signup and info)
The roleplay: http://www.rpnation.com/showthread.php/3709-The-Shards-(Roleplay)?p=128703#post128703
Long ago, since ancient times, Humans and Demons once battled constantly with each other. There was a crystal created to protect an ancient tribe of Humans from those that would seek their knowledge and power for gain; whether they be Human or Demon. The people of this tribe were a people who lived off of the Earth, who had magic and knowledge beyond their era, but was often attacked or hunted down.
The crystal they had created gave the wielder the near power of a god. To create or destroy. And though they tried to make it so the crystal would only respond to someone of their blood, or of a pure heart, they soon realized that great power came at a great cost.
After an event that nearly caused the world's destruction, the leader of the tribe shattered the crystal, creating six individual shards that each possessed its own element. He entrusted very close and worthy women to guard and care for each shard and spread out among the earth, for the crystal best responded positively in the presence of a woman.
Each individual vowed to never use the shards' power for evil, nor to lend them into the hands of evil, and to never, EVER allow a Demon to possess the shard. Their pact also bound them to the world, so that they would never be put to rest. They would always reincarnate to protect the shard given to them.
However, there is a downside to being a bearer of a shard; as they reincarnated, dying with their shards, the shards soon became a part of their body; being dormant in areas of their body such as their chest, head, belly. The only way someone could obtain a shard, is to kill them, and take it from their body.
If each of these shards are collected and are merged together to form the crystal again, the wielder will have the power of a god, and could use it for good, or for evil.
Now, an organization who has studied this legend is on the rise. A group of Humans and Demons who seek the shards and hunt the guardians. They call themselves Crystal Shardwalkers.
Who will succeed? Will even the guardians fight each other for power?
---------
The Shards:
Flame - Gives the bearer the ability to manipulate Fire. Electricity is a sub element. (taken)
Aqua - Gives the bearer the ability to manipulate Water. Ice, Snow, and other liquids are a sub elements. (taken)

**Note: I may add more elements in the future. Perhaps some lost shards.
The Setting:
Our characters are now in modern times. However, they may be all over the world.
Rules:
1) Shard Bearers can only be female Humans (descendants of the Ancient Crystal Tribe).
2) Choose ONE crystal bearer character. If there are still slots open after a while, you may create another character if I give permission.
3) This is invite mainly, but if I or anyone else a part of this roleplay really like your characters, you can join.
4) This is a descriptive roleplay. Avoid one-sentence posts, please.
5) Only cartoon/anime pictures, please. Using actual photos seems like stealing someone's identity.

Personality:
Appearance:
Name: Serena
Age: Sixteen
Shard Element: Light
Background: When Serena was a little girl, she began to show strange abilities, which concerned her parents and the doctors who examined her. After the girl's abilities became more and more frequent (often her eyes and hair would glow), the doctors and even high authorities began to take special interest in her. This proposed that Serena be taken from her family. Concerned about their daughter's well-being, the mother left her ten year old daughter in the middle of the woods, hoping this would give her a small chance to escape. Since then, Serena has grown up in an old cabin she had discovered secluded from the outside world. All the girl wishes is to one day be reunited with her family, and to live in peace.
Personality: Shy and timid, Serena grew up without much human interaction. Unaware of the legend or even the crystal inside her, she is prone to energy surges which can be dangerous to anything around her. This also causes her hesitation to be around anyone.
