Ezekiel

[COLOR=Magenta]Tilbie hummed and walked down the street, heading towards the direction of the bleeps and cursing. She rounded a corner to find a man standing above and disappearing monster, a large sword clasped in his hands. The girl cocked her head to the side and smiled brightly, bouncing over to the man and waving cutely. "Hi there, my name's Tilbie, wanna be friends?" "....?" "You beat that monster good, let me buy you a drink!" "My name is Main Character, but you can call me Kit if you buy me enough drinks." "Hiya Main!" she shook hands and 'boinged' again, before starting to walk towards the direction of the nearest Inn. "Oops, we made a wrong turn, sorry!" she laughed sheepishly but as soon as the duo turned around, sods law kicked in and the whole street span, battle music playing relentlessly. "Oh, for crap sake!" Main cried out, his sword drawn in the same position as before, he looked to the side and saw Tilbie bouncing in one place, her staff out in front of her, a wide smile on her face. "My cheeks hurt..." she moaned, still smiling. Main frowned, "Then stop smiling, you look stupid!" "I can?t, this is how I always am..." Main tried to sweatdrop but stayed in the same place, he cursed mentally wondering what in the hell was going on, just as he was hit by the creature in front of him. "The hell?!" [I]9 DAMAGE[/I] Tilbie giggled and crouched low, selecting the 'BLACK MAGIC' option in front of her. She raised her staff and a fireball grew from it "How do ya like this?!" The spell engulfed the monster in front of the two and it screeched, disappearing as the street returned to normal. "Now, where were we?"[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]I watched this series for the first time yesterday after seeing some fanart of it and having Legacy talk to me endlessly about it on AIM chats. It just so happens that the first episode I dowloaded was...'P-P-P chan, He ain't good for nothin!' I think that's it name. Anyways, first episdoe I see and...Ranma and Ryoga are both naked :eek: okay, Ranma was in 'girl mode' and I've noticed how pretty he/she is but Ryoga.... :tasty: oh he's lovely. So, it's yet another fan for his growing little club. But he really is so funny, and obsessive >_> I've just bought the first volume of the manga today and so far I'm finding it hilarious. Not to mention I'm looking to buy all of the seasons on E-bay...if I can actually get enough money -_-.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]My list of people I [I]could[/I] date is immensely long and filled with just about every bishie that has ever been created :love: But those who I could NOT date are as follows: Risa Harada from D N Angel I'm assuming we can say either gender >_> This is because, if she actually settled down, she'd probably end up getting bored and sleeping around with people eventually, which bugs me. Also the fact that she is possessive, obsessive and refuses to admit that she is wrong AND notice that [SPOILER]as soon as Dark was out of the picture after his fight with Krad, she suddenly notices Satoshi and smiles at him all lovingly, completely forgetting her 'love' for Dark[/SPOILER] yeah, plus she'd just be annoying as hell. Another one I couldn?t date: Krad from D N Angel 4 words: Psychotic, Homicidal, Blonde and Bishie They really don't mix :nope: Oh oh, the last one. This is a guy I would sooo love to date but also, just couldn't: Ryoga from Ranma 1/2 Even though he's totally bishie and I love him so much, he is just obsessive and has a totally one track mind. He'd probably be one of those guys he wouldn't let you talk to any guy at all, including your brother >_> not to mention he is a pig. -_-[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]I really like the sound of this idea and once you put more detail into the story I think it could be really good. I was just watching some old DBZ eps yesterday and I'd forgotten how cool it was ^_^ if you started this of I'd be happy to join it. As to the story line, I know you're obviously going to work on it and as it stands, there doesn't seem to be any major hitches in it, (Although I have only just got up), I look forward to seeing the final project. BTW: Does anyone know why the people at DBZ gave Trunks and Bra those names? >_> kinda worrying...[/COLOR]

She never has any time to socialise but does prefer it that way, she always strives to be the very best. She has been playing 'The World' for 5 years but has never wanted to be an Admin, even though she had the chance. She knows she may not be online for long enough to do her job. Usually after getting into a really good battle, or meeting another player she is interrupted to go to work or baby sit, her life has always been this way. Her study of Law has actually helped Imogen to understand people when she first meets them and to tell whether they are lying or not, it's come in handy when trading items.

[COLOR=SlateGray]*dances* I just had to start this thread! Okay, as you can guess this is a competition for all the Bishies in anime. If you want to nominate a character say what show they are from, why you nominated them and include a picture so we can judge. You can nominate different characters if you want, you don't have to just stick with one. After a couple of weeks I'll count up who got nominated the most times and we'll have a final with voting etc. to see who are the top five Bishies of all time! Come to think of it, I might need some help depending on how well this hits off....okay then, my nomination is: [U][B]Duo Maxwell[/B][/U] [B]Show:[/B] Gundam Wing/Endless waltz OAV Duo is a really good example of a bishie. A killer smile, long hair, beautiful big eyes and a tragic past. He is the pilot of the Deathscythe Gundam and is a master at breaking out of prison, which comes in quite handy. Duo hides his pain with a smile and is always the optimist and joker out of the group of pilots. [URL=http://www.animegalleries.net/albums/media/185/gw_duo000.jpg]Our First Bishie![/URL] And that's all there is to it ^_^ make your posts worthwhile please so the mods don't close this thread, I think it's a fun idea. Remember, boys and girls to be nominated, I?ll come up with my bishoujo post later.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]Wow, now I don't feel so stupid anymore, here I was thinking that I was all alone in these Braindead moments. This happens to me so much it's unbelievable, and quite cruel. I'll usually be sitting talking with my mum and she asks me a question and I swear I [I]know[/I] the answer but when I open my mouth it kind of...walks out without me knowing O_o. Then I just jabber about something else and my mum thinks I'm a freak. But the main thing that happens to me is when I'm chatting online, as most of my friends will know. Many conversations with Sean go like this: [COLOR=Blue]OblivionProtect:[/COLOR] Jamie? [COLOR=Red]sabbath midnight:[/COLOR] Yeah? [COLOR=Blue]Oblivion Project:[/COLOR] Are you okay? You're not talking [COLOR=Red]sabbath midnight:[/COLOR] I know...I was about to and then my brain kinda went ------------------- and it went *beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep* and now I have a headache [COLOR=Blue]Oblivion project[/COLOR]: lol [COLOR=Red]sabbath midnight:[/COLOR] my eye is twitching, I'm going to bed.... *coughs* Another famous quote from me; 'Did you know, that if the clouds weren't there...the sky would be clear?' *sighs* yes, I really am a dumb blond.....[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]Well I noticed something about this RPG. I was going to join even if the story seemed very jumbled and unorganised it did have promise. But when I looked through the sign up and noticed 'Abilities' )I think that's what it was anyway)...well, even though I play .hack I don't know anything else other than Repth, La Repth and Vak Kruz and those are simple. You should always leave your RPGs open so that people who haven't played the game can also sign up without too much trouble, by adding this section people need to know the game well and it put me off straight away. But that's just how I feel, good luck with the RP though, I hope it goes well. +Cru+[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]Well, er...I have one, to protest my girli-ness.....when I was on holiday this girl actually thought I was a boy...*shudders* kinda funny though.... [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v219/AzureImi/1093538585.jpg[/IMG] There we go, only made it on Paint.....[/COLOR]

[B]Joining now! *clings to Steff*[/B] [COLOR=SlateGray]Name: Patience Harrod Codename: Azure Cloud Gang Name: Twilight Saccubi Age: Expert Appearance: [URL=http://www.invoid.net/gallery/displayimage.php?album=2&pos=385]click[/URL] Personality: Patience is the not so patient second in command of the Twilight Saccubi (hope that's okay). She has a great amount of respect for Piper and will follow her to the very end, making sure that she fights her hardest for her. She has little respect for others in the gang though, she is powerful and will knock a newbie back down for even the slightest misdeed. She is a strong and determined fighter and enjoys battles, but will also settle for a peaceful afternoon drinking tea in a garden. If anything ever happened to Piper, Patience would be at a loss, she is all that the girl lives for. Bio: Patience was thrown out on the street when she was younger, her parents had not wanted her and split up after she was born. For years she lived on the streets until she found Piper, who cared for her and made her strong, training her to be a fighter. A strong love and respect grew in Patience's heart for this girl who had rescued her. She will never betray her and lives to protect her, that is what makes her strong. Weapon: A Shinaii (Kendo weapon) it's one of a kind, made by a kendo master. She also uses Ninja Throwing stars.[/COLOR] [B]Yes, I AM playing an obsessed freaky character! Lucky you, Steff![/B]

[COLOR=SlateGray][B]Name:[/B] Blair Connor [B]Age:[/B] 18 [B]Gender:[/B] female [B]Appearance:[/B] [URL=http://www.invoid.net/gallery/displayimage.php?album=2&pos=249]click[/URL] [B]Personality:[/B] A kind girl and a nice person, Blair has always been the right choice for leader. She makes sensible choices and always considers everyone's opinions before making a final plan. She enjoys doing part time jobs, helping others around her small village to the North-East of Enchant. She is serious when fighting, but not too much, she still slips in a joke believing that you can?t win a battle in a bad mood. [B]History:[/B] Blair's family have never been very wealthy, her father was a miner and he worked at the old ruins, until one section caved in and he, along with 50 other workers, were trapped inside. Blair's mother never really got over that and she worked even harder at a school in Atashka, trying to generate enough money to keep the family living the same way as they used to. When Blair was old enough, she took care of her younger brother Imric while her mother worked two jobs, the girl always insisted that her mother rested but the middle aged woman didn?t let up. When Blair turned 17 she took up a job as a temple maid in Pyre?s Temple, even though she hated the God himself. She was even threatened with being used as a sacrifice to him, serving him in the afterlife, but she was rescued by her brother who came in with a sacrifice of a calf. That cost the family a great deal and set them back further in their finances. Blair never forgot that and hates Pyre with a passion, she thinks he knows this and believes that he plans on making the rest of her life in Akai'Teth a living hell. Now that this war has started, she and Imric were ordered to use their spells and fight for there 'beloved God'. While she refuses to, Imric has given in and joined to army of Pyre, now all Blair can do is watch from her roof as she sees her brother marching with the legions into Yul-kash. She still practices her magic and is one of the most powerful mages in all of lei-su. But now her mother has approached her with an idea, travel to Mount Akai and search out the body of their former powerful God, learn true power and save Akai'Teth from this war. She has gladly agreed. [B]God:[/B] Pyre [B]Realm:[/B] Lei-Su [B]Weapons:[/B] Crucifix, her magic staff, a simple Cross blade is attached to the top bound with dark brown leather. [B]Spells:[/B] [U]Fire Rain:[/U] Blair prays to the God Pyre to grant her with his power of Fire. She calls out the spell and as the sky turns blood red, fire starts to burst forth from the skym, raining down on her enemy. How healthy she is determines the size of the damage area. [U]Maii'Leth:[/U] In Akai, it means 'Power Surge'. Blair creates a static ball in her hands, plunging her fist deep into the earth, causing the earths surface to crack towards her opponent before erupting into a massive bolt of lighting bellow them, killing any normal person within a few seconds. [U]Repth:[/U] A small healing spell, recovers a small amount of health, not a huge amount. [U]Fireball:[/U] Another simple spell, but Blair?s favourite. Her fireballs are the strongest in all of Lei-Su. She chants her incantation in her head and watches the glowing orb grow in the palms of her hands. When it is large enough, she raises her arms above her head and screams 'Firebaaaall!' blasting her enemy and scorching some land around them. [U]Sacrifice to Pyre:[/U] Blair final and most powerful spell. She has never used this but knows that if she had to, it would work. She prays to her God and closes her eyes, making sure that all around her is clear of her allies, [I]God of Fire Ruler of My Soul Infuse my Body with your flames Turn me to a Phoenix As I sacrifice myself For victory[/I] When the prayer is over, her body will be engulfed in flames as crimson wings of fire burst from her back, after 30 minutes after the transformation, mostly all her enemies will be dead, but she will drop the earth and turn to ashes.[/COLOR] [B]Everyone, I really like your sign ups so far, if you have any questions post them in the Underground thread. I'm going to be selective on this so make your sign ups good. I'm still thinking about using the chapter system?we'll see about that ^_^;[/B]

[B]Okay then! You took my best position...damn you Jake....[/B] [COLOR=SlateGray][B]Name:[/B] Imric Connor [B]Age:[/B] 18 [B]Position:[/B] Striker [B]Appearance:[/B] [URL=http://fanart.theotaku.com/view.php?action=get_pic&pic_id=30881]Imric[/URL] Imric stands at 5'11'' and usual wears those style of clothes, except when playing, obviously. [B]Bio:[/B] Imric never really enjoyed soccer as a kid, he always preferred to leave it to his brother to play while he sat on the sidelines and watched, his real passion was basketball, but when he got badly injured in a game, which turned him for life. He never set foot on a court again and instead took to soccer. He tried for goalie and wasn?t very good, nor was he good in defence, but once his brother set him as striker, he ruled the pitch. Even the older boys were in awe at the 14 year olds abilities with the ball, he could make practically any pass into a goal. During school one day, he saw Jac playing soccer out on the field. He noticed that he was a really good goalie and wanted to test him, so, he walked out, taking off his jacket and dropping his back to the floor, stopping the ball with his foot as it rolled over to him. "See if you can save this?" Jac nodded and Imric took a shot, the other boys 'oohed' as the ball smacked against Jac's gloves, but he saved it none the less. The only goalie to ever save one of Imric's shots. Imric was impressed and had found his new idol; he and Jac became good friends.[/COLOR]

[B]Sept. 7th ~9:12[/B] [COLOR=SlateGray]As Imric wandered around the corridors he considered something, stopping and pausing, he slowly drew out his timetable. [I]Villain Ethics... ..... Villain Ethics... .... Break.... Why the hell did I get up early?![/I] He sighed and bashed his head against a handy vending machine, which groaned and wobbled. Imric boggled and then made a grab for it, realising who/what he had just hit. "My apologies, 28...." "Yabaku28...Kagushi....no...problem." the machine 'computer yawned' (somehow) "You woke me up early..." Imric bowed his head, "Sorry about that, but I think you've already paid me back." he pointed at his forehead where a lump was quickly forming. The machine did a few [I]ha ha ha's [/I] and then left, leaving Imric grumbling about being tired AND polite for no reason. He stalked down the corridor, daring any first years to just look at him, the usual vein popped in his forehead and thunder rolled in the small black clouds encircling his head, "It is not my day...and it's only the first?all I need now is to OOF!" He fell back, landing on his backside with a very sore shoulder, "Who the hell?!" "Good morning, Mr. Kagushi." "Ah, Professor, how's the apartment?" Imric smirked and pulled himself up off the floor, brushing himself off and flicking his long hair over his shoulder, eyes glistening and teeth shining, he flashed Prof. Ken one of his best 'bishie smiles'. The Professor blushed slightly and twitched, "Do you have lessons to go to?" "No, I got up to early." the clouds gathered again. "In that case, go do something useful." "I am" "What?" "...." "What?!" "That is...." "TELL ME, KAGUSHI?!" "....a secret. Mwehehehe!" with that, Imric took off again, laughing all the way down the corridor as he heard the Professor explode into rage once again. Then came the silence, the gasp of the first years, and mindless jabbering from Ken Wu-Fan as the Principle questioned him no what was wrong. Imric just couldn?t help himself, he wiped the tears away and walked towards the library, for today, his mission was complete.[/COLOR]

[B]Okay, here is information on the land of Akai'Teth, I will be including info on the Gods later on, it's not as important right now.[/B] [COLOR=SlateGray][B]Akai?Teth[/B] Akai?Teth is split into four realms, each God rules over their own and each are very different in their own ways. The basic language spoken is Akai and the inhabitants are known as Akairans. The currency is Shia: 1 Shia is equal to about 5 dollars. The mode of transport between realms is a hover train. It looks like a normal modern train but is kept afloat by magic, all power is taken from the sun, wind and water.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed][B]Lei-Su[/B] [U]The realm of the Fire God.[/U] This place is like a dessert, the only trees that are seen to grow form the forest known as Enchant which lies exactly in the middle of this realm. In here, animals live, water flows and plants grow wonderfully, but no people live there knowing that they would destroy the only place of beauty in their land. The main city is Atashka and lays South-West of Enchant. Its population is approx. 1000 and it is one of the largest and busiest cities in all of Akai?Teth. The buildings are made from stone and mud; only the bare minimum amount of wood is used for fear of it running out. The structures are thin and tall, channelling the heat up to the roof and ventilating through small holes in the ceiling. In winter, the structures maintain the heat during the cold nights but in summer they are only just bearable to live in. The people are still trying to design new accommodations for themselves. Smaller villages are dotted around the dessert, one quite important village is Ballor, which lies to the North of Enchant and is inhabited by many explorers and merchants that travel to the other realms in a hope of buying and selling raw materials. Lei-Su is known for its metal and stone, no other realm has such an abundance of iron, granite or limestone to name a few. Landmarks: Besides Enchant, there are two other landmarks in Lei-Su; one is the Great Pyre Temple. The magnificent golden and amber structure that lies to the East of Enchant, right on the border. Flames constantly burn on each of the four corners of the temple, a beacon for travellers and a warning for enemies. True followers of Pyre reside here, they pray and worship him each day, they do not fight like the rest of the population and are protected by Pyre?s flames. Weary travellers are welcomed to stay and rest until they are fit, without having to pay, but they are required to leave something to be sacrificed to Pyre. There is a rumour that 100 years ago, a merchant could not offer anything for the God and was instead used as a human sacrifice, feeding the temples great fire and causing billowing smoke to leak from the temple, covering the suns light and casting Lei-Su into an eerie darkness. Of course, this has never been confirmed. The other landmarks are the great mines of Akten?Shei lying to the South of Enchant. No one works there any more but bandits and criminals have used the endless tunnels as a means of hiding and transporting illegal goods into the other realms. Iron is still buried deep within the earth and some people have been known to strike lucky and find a diamond. The People: People if Lei-Su are very good physical workers, but aren?t very skilled when it comes to making weapons. They forge swords in the heart of blazing fires created by their own people?s magic but know that they are not capable of using these weapons to great use. Thus they have nurtured their magic skills and are the strongest with these powers out of all the four realms. They use physical attack spells, rather opting to be aggressive than defensive.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DeepSkyBlue][B]Ru?ke-Whim[/B] [U]The Weather Goddess? realm.[/U] This is the realm in the sky. Floating islands that hover constantly above the land below, 300 feet in the air. Ladders reach down from these massive islands to ground level where residents can then take a hover train to another realm, for a price, of course. Not all inhabitants can easily afford this. The islands themselves are all very similar, except for the largest, the capitol city of Ru?ke Whim, Leaisha. A beautiful city usually filled with joyous laughter, music and the buzz of markets. Towering buildings built with limestone and painted with a coat of gleaming gold paint, this place is a sight to behold and is the greatest and richest city in all of Akai?Teth. Many actors, singers and performers dream of travelling here, bringing their shows and finding fame. Its population is approx. 15 000 and growing, with people from other realms travelling to Ru?ke-Whim in a hope of finding fortune in Leaisha. The people travel by hover trains powered by the energy harvested from wind and the sun, giant bridges join towns and larger villages, all leading to the capitol. Everyone lives in apartment building, but all are of a large size making any normal person seem like a millionaire, the people are very proud. Since the people live in the sky, there is no place for planting fields to grow food, therefore trade is a big thing instead of rich merchants paying Shia to see shows or buy things, they trade for food and wood. Ru?ke-Whim is famous for it?s cloth. Many merchants and aristocrats travel far to get their hands on the material, a precious item. Hand woven by the most gentle of hands and washed in the collected rain water from there own God, this cloth, known as Heaven?s Weave, is the softest and most beautiful. Landmarks: The only famous landmark in Ru?ke-Whim is the Grand Theatre in Leaisha. A beautiful building decorated by the greatest artists from Yul-kash, crimson curtains laced with gold made from Heaven?s Weave and the stage made from the wood of the best trees in Auro?shi, it really is a sight to behold. The theatre holds 2 000 people with seating arranged as a circle around the massive circular stage. No one ever misses a move the actors make and binoculars are supplied to all seated near the back. The seats themselves are padded with sheep?s wool and covered again in Heaven?s Weave, with a gold trim. Food and drinks are supplied by theatre staff, constantly checking if people need refreshments and the only charge is for the tickets, everything else is free. Some shows will be free, giving the theatre more of a reputation by allowing people who wouldn?t usually be able to afford the shows have their choice of seat first. Many performers have made their names in this theatre and anyone that performs on that stage is always honoured. The People: The people of Ru?ke-Whim are known to be passive, very skilled at using white magic spells such as shields and healing magic. They use bows and arrows and spears efficiently, but they are not ones for using a sword. They usually opt for the peaceful route but when pushed like they have been lately they make good fighters, always trying their hardest to win. Most people, like the other realms inhabitants, do not like their Goddess and wish that they could be free of her, but true believers in this realm are the hardest to argue with, they are very religious and worship everyday hoping to keep their Goddess happy, to let them win this war.[/COLOR] [COLOR=RoyalBlue][B]Yul-kash[/B] [U]The Water God?s realm.[/U] Yul-kash is a realm surrounded by crystal waters. The mainland is like a tropical island with palm trees and shrubs that are used to humid weather; under the water there are many buildings, mostly factories, schools and work places. All the people live on the surface of the water in houses much like huts. Built from wood, the roofs are made from grass or hay; very good for keeping the houses cool in summer. Since this realm had never experienced winter, the people are only used to the heat and cannot handle temperatures like you would expect in Ru?ke-Whim. The buildings under the water are dome shaped and built of glass, only the first meter of wall is stone and they are painted a metallic blue colour, reflecting the sun off the surface and making the building gleam. Tubes are connected to the buildings and they are how the people enter them, even though they are known to hold their breath for over 5 minutes, many of the building are deep down. Each town with a population of 600 plus has a train station, most villagers are too poor to afford to travel below the ocean anyway and make their living as fishermen. The capitol city is Aquea and has a population of 1500, it is known for having very talented artists and they are usually requested by other capitols to decorate temples or important buildings. Many famous artists are insanely rich but still live in a normal hut, happy with what they have, that is what earns them respect from other Akairans. Most buildings in the capitol are decorated with the works of many different artists, each beautiful in their own right. Pictures of a setting sun or the ocean waves breaking on the shore, or simply, a scene of a winter night, the sky shrouded in clouds. Landmarks: All the buildings under the ocean off the coast of Yul-kash are beautiful, but one to see is the Art Gallery, known by all as ?Gleam? a nickname derived from the ancient Akai name, ?Arushka?shu Mei? translated roughly as ?Building of Light? or ?Gleaming Building? The people are very proud of this glass dome, just seeing it from the outside is a wonder. Each pane of glass is shined to perfection and reflects even the slightest ray of sun light, making it seem brighter than it ever could, the building looking like a gem under the water. Inside, the different rooms are themed around different art styles or seasonal themes. One room to see is the Winter Hall. Lucky artists who dared to visit Ru?ke-Whim in the middle of winter came back with the most amazing still life?s to wow the city with, all are exhibited in this one room, lit dimly to give the affect of a winter morning with imitation snow falling gently from the ceiling. All who have seen it have left with an awed expression. Another famous place in Aquea is the train station (Aqua Alure), with each of its tubes taking a deep plunge into the ocean, carrying its passengers to their destination safely each day. Only five tracks run from here to other places in Akai?Teth but even so, it?s the biggest station out of them all. Having a total of 20 tracks each reaching a different station or building. The People: Everyone is trained to swim from as soon as they can walk. Even though most people prefer to take the train, it is tradition for everyone to be able to hold their breath for at least 5 minutes by the time they reach the age of 18. As a test to see if they have reached adult hood, recently turned 18 year olds will undergo a massive underwater course, lasting 5 minutes exactly for strong swimmers. If they need to be helped or rescued along the way, they have not reached adulthood and will still be classed as a minor. So far, only 3 people have died according to the records. These people are strong psychical fighters but not very skilled with magic. They use tridents and short swords to battle, some using custom built weapons or unique swords from Lei-Su. They do not favour armour as they often choose to swim away as a retreat than to run, they prefer to let the battle come to them rather than to go to the battle?and ultimately, death. [/COLOR] [COLOR=SeaGreen][B]Auro?shi[/B] [U]The Nature Goddess? realm.[/U] Possibly the most beautiful of all four realms. Everywhere you look there are flowers, trees, waterfalls and animals. Everywhere is life and happiness, even during this time of war. This is the only realm that has no capitol, or even standard buildings. All the people live in tribes and as nomads, travelling to different forests and areas when the seasons change. Most summers are beautiful, the sun filtering through the leaves of massive Oaks and redwoods, casting a serene beauty over the whole of the realm. This is when all the celebrations occur. All the tribes gather together, creating a circle of people, all celebrating their luck in having such a bountiful land. Other people are invited from the other realms to join in the celebrations and thank their Gods for what they have been blessed with, even though most of the time these prayers have no substance. When the houses are set up, they are made from reeds and animal skins, very quickly put together but stable once they are put up. The people live off the land, most of them herding cattle or sheep and cultivating fields. The women make wine and other drinks, desserts and salads while the children are taught in clearings by intelligent professors. This realm is known for it?s wonderful wine, sold in every realm and rumoured to be the favourite drink of the Gods, or so the wine makers would have everyone believe. It is also known for the intelligent professors that are constantly leaving to teach in the other capitols, earning Auro?shi a good name. Landmarks: The only noticeable thing in Auro?shi is the vineyards. People from Ru?ke-Whim can look through telescopes and watch the grapes sway in the summer sunshine, a most peaceful thing. Artists have travelled to draw pictures of the grapes when they are ripe and have always returned home with a complimentary bottle of wine. The whole of Auro?shi is beautiful, and any explorer wanting to relax will always be welcomed in any of the tribe?s campgrounds in any season. The people: These people are hands down the most powerful swordsmen. No one has ever defeated them in war and it is all down to animal instinct. By keeping in touch with nature, the people of Auro?shi are able to tap into a warrior?s rage when they fight, almost going berserk on their enemy. They have no talent for magic and even the most intelligent of professors cannot grasp a simple spell, although, some do say they have a certain magic for nature. When in a tough spot, children have been known to call upon packs of wolves to protect them, this is the hidden gift of the next generation of Auro?shi.[/COLOR] [COLOR=SlateGray][B]Mount Akai/Light Peak:[/B] This is the mountain where the God Akai landed when he was thrown from the heavens, it lies in the centre of Akai?Teth and is not owned by any realm but stands as a beacon, seen by all. His skeleton is still there at the peak to this day, a constant reminder of what happened. On his skull, the history of the war between he and the Gods is inscribed, allowed to stay there because it keeps the people living in fear. No one will ever dare to mess with the Gods again, until now?.heroes, discover your power, and bring peace to Akai?Teth once again?.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray][B][CENTER]Akai?Teth[/CENTER][/B][/COLOR] [COLOR=SlateGray]As blood is shed to feed the hunger of the Gods, men, women and children die for a cause not known and not welcomed. They may be servants, but born to that heritage and not wanting it is tough. All people in the land of Akai?Teth are born under the name of one of the four Gods, and whether they like it or not, they must serve their deity in life and in death. For the last 3 millenniums the Gods have been at peace with each other, but now, a disagreement has sparked war and the whole of the population will be pulled into it, defending the name of their God and fighting for their cause without question. Each religion has their own cultures, strengths, traditions and people. Where as they once lived as one race, all under the kind God Akai who named their land, the four Elemental Gods split them during the great rebellion in the heavens. Many scared humans watched as fire rained from the sky, waterspouts erupted from the sea devastating the land, earthquakes and eruptions killed thousands and animals went berserk, ravaging villages and eating their inhabitants. It was a time of fear and death, the stench constantly hanging in the air, a reminder of what had happened to their beloved God. On the 13th day of war, a light was seen to be dropping from the sky, falling on the peak of a mountain at the centre of Akai?Teth. True believers travelled many miles to discover the mutilated corpse of Akai, lying on the mountain, his light fading rapidly. People who believed Gods to be myths were true believers and after many years, all people where born to a God, never to live a truly free life. While some welcomed this new reformation, many despised the idea and tried to rebel against it, only to be found dead, killed by the minions of their own God. After 3 millenniums of terror for the people, the Gods have sensed a new kind of hero rising within the souls of the younger generations. The ones who had been blessed with the power of Akai?s light as he took his last dying breath, planting his seeds of power into family lines, hoping that one day, the seeds would burst forth as a new generation of powerful children, capable of saving Akai?Teth and returning it to it?s previously peaceful state. Now during this war, the Gods are faced with a decision: join forces and leave for Akai?Teth to destroy these hero?s, or continue with their war and deal with the threat later. Watching from the heavens as their people clash in war, what choice will they make? And the hero?s? That, my friends, you must decide. **************** [B]Okay, I?m putting a lot of work into this RPG.

[COLOR=SlateGray]A small smirk crossed Imogen's lips as she saw Duo pull up and jump off his bike...[I]her[/I] favourite bike. She watched as he slipped out of his leather jacket, why was her heart beating so fast? She looked up to Akaria, she was on top of her mech, but knowing Duo, he would have recognised it by now. "So, couldn?t bare to be away from me for too long, eh, babe?" a smirk crossed the braided pilots lips as he whispered something that Imogen couldn?t quite catch. She sighed and looked down from her perch on top of the awesome Akaria. Garret had been too annoyed to notice that she had dropped out of the formation and probably didn?t care once he realised. ?You?re so full of yourself?Shinigami!? with that, the girl jumped and flipped, landing with two feet firmly on the ground barely an inch away from the Gundam Pilot?s face. He grinned and leaned down, ?Your tricks don?t impress me, missy.? ?No, I suppose you?ve seen better things from Heero?? The male pilot?s gaze seem to focus on something other that Imogen?s face for a moment?maybe he was studying the intricate pattern on the part of her pilots suit that covered her chest? ?Ahem?..MAINTAIN EYE CONTACT, PERVERT!? another slap brought Duo?s gaze to Imogen?s eye?s. ?Ah, why so rough, babe? I?ve been cooped up with guys for too long!? ?That?s no reason to be staring and DO NOT call me babe!? Duo silenced her with a kiss. ?You talk too much.[/COLOR] [B]OOC *giggles and runs off*[/B]

[COLOR=SlateGray]Imric sat back in the sun and smiled up at the sky, he had tended to an old man with the limited amount of medical knowledge he had and had given him his blessing, at least he was only suffering from a high fever, it would pass soon. The Priest heard the shout of 'Dragon!', but didn?t flinch. Dragons where such trivial things to deal with. But then he realised something. His father had wanted him to be a strong fighter, but Imric had waved it off. But after seeing some of the rounds in the fight tournament, his own yearning to be strong had risen. The young man stood up and dusted his black robes off; he walked back into his tent to get changed yet again. After 10 minutes, he emerged clad in brown, loose fitting pants, a sleeveless white top and black boots, with his Crucifix weapon in hand. The family next to him looked surprised to see a Priest with such a weapon, even if it did suit him. "Mister? Where are ya going?" the small boy from before sounded worried. "Oh, just to slay a Dragon." Imric laughed and flicked his hair over his shoulder, before walking away towards the forest where he presumed the Dragon would be. How hard could killing a dumb Dragon be? After a few minutes of walking in the forest, the over ambitious Priest realised that in actual fact, he didn?t know where he was going...until he saw the smoke. "Finally!" he ran towards what looked to be a clearing but once he entered, the most awesome sight was before him. An army against a distressed and angry dragon, Imric didn't like those odds, so what chance did he have? He then noticed another man standing and staring at the sight, "Ah, excuse me?" The man turned, "Yes?" he sounded equally nervous as Imric. "Um...my name is Imric Connor....do you think we stand a chance at all?"[/COLOR]

[B]OOC *revives this RP because she is bored*[/B] [COLOR=SlateGray]Imric sighed from his place on the floor as he heard banging and shouts from outside. He looked up and managed to pull himself into a sitting position. "Kento?" There was no reply, just another bang and then a shout from a girl. 'Midi-san?' Imric stood up, wincing in pain as he went but managed to get to the door, he grasped the handle and pulled it open, only to be barrelled back into the room by an angry girl. His head whacked the table leg and he groaned in even more pain, just then he looked up right into the face of his attacker. "What was that shit you pulled on my brother, what the hell did he do to you?!" Imric was silent, his piercing green eyes never left the girls, he matched her anger with his pain and coldness, not leaving her face. She blushed and turned away, "You're gonna pay for that!" she threw a punch but Imric blocked it, "I may not look strong, but please, don?t insult me with this challenge." He stood up, twisting the girls wrist as he went, she whimpered in pain and fell to her knees. "Ba...bastard." Imric let her go, "I've been called worse." The sound of a kick sent one girl stumbling backwards, Midori in front of her, Kento knocked out on the floor behind. Midori's cheek was bruised and her lip was bleeding, but she held her ground strongly. Imric never knew how powerful she was, he had never meant to hurt her the way he had. "We'll be back, punks, and you can?t hide from us in school!" with that the girls left, shouting back insults as they went. Kento groaned and lifted his head, "What happened?" the sight he saw was not encouraging, Imric and Midori staring each other down in the centre of the room, Midori's fist clenched, a tear running down her face and Imric chest heaving from the exertion of the fight. As Imric was about to speak, he choked, his eyes went wide as his glasses fell and he clutched at his rib cage. Before he knew what had happened....he was welcomed by black once again.[/COLOR]

[B]Sept. 7 8:00am[/B] [COLOR=SlateGray]Imric sighed and looked at his clocked as it bleeped at him, telling him to wake up....which would have been quite useful if he had been asleep in the first place. Which he wasn?t.....he was in a very uncomfortable position on the floor, where he had been for the last three hours after falling out of bed in an attempt to ward off a Leprechaun. The boy rolled himself over backwards, lying on the floor, at least this was more comfortable...but still, he needed to get up. Standing groggily, he took one step forward and braced himself on the bed. But after one glance in the mirror at his hair...he screamed, which defiantly woke him up.[/COLOR] [B]8:25am[/B] [COLOR=SlateGray]Imric was still trying to brush all the knots out of his 3 foot long hair. He'd had to take out the pony tail and brush for a solid 10 minutes just to make it semi-tidy. Tears were running down his face as his hair tugged in the brush, sending a short jab of pain into his scalp every time. "Why do you hate me so...?" he asked through the tears, "I love you so much and yet you hurt me like this?" After more brushing, more pleading and more crying...finally some victory dancing, Imric was ready to go to school. He grabbed his book bag and timetable, ready for the day ahead. As he was walking down the stairs, skipping two at a time in his strangely good mood, he made the mistake of looking at his timetable. His eyes focused on Creative Writing. "Oh....fiddlesticks....." Was all he managed to get out as he lay, again on his back, at the bottom of the stairs. "This will make for a interesting day." just as he tried to stand up, he was promptly trampled by some invisible foot, hearing a giggle and seeing what looked like a wisp of smoke, the bishie sighed and gave up.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]Imogen breathed in slowly, trying to push her anger down and not give in to Wu Fei. By now, Quatre and Trowa had heard the shouts and had made their way to the room. Trowa stood in the door and watched while Quatre ran over to Wu Fei, trying to calm him down. "Garret was right, we don?t need you!" Imogen spat, "I'm leaving." with that she stormed out of the room, not even giving Duo a second glance, "And when that Hentai wakes up, tell him to [I]burn[/I] that diary!" The rest of the way was a blur of tears, anger and confusion as Imogen ran all the way to the hanger, were the others were just taking off. "Garret, I'm sorry about that!" The boy in Gemini sat silent and waited for Imogen to climb into Akaria's cockpit. Once she was in, she punched the boosters and both her and Garret shot out, making their way back to base. "Should we destroy them...?" Garret asked quite seriously. "No, let them destroy themselves...."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]*has decided to post again because new things have happened in her life* *coughs* yeah! Well, I've moved house since I last posted in this thread...all those weeks ago and my life has, erm...changed quite a bit *smiles* I finally think I've decided on what I'm doing with my life, Teaching English in an International School in Japan. I know that seems like a pretty well thought out goal considering I'm still very young, but I guess that?s what my heart is set on. So, now I live in a smaller house but it seems to be so much better, not sure why, really. The place is far from quiet and there isn?t much to do but it seems more like home than the last place did. Hm, what else? Um...my parents have [I]finally[/I] split up and are living in different countries (I'm with my mum) and I know that sounds strange but it's for the best, so I'm fine with it. *thinks hard* ow....might as well finish off with where I hang out/haunt. That would be the Adventure Square/Inn/Underground mostly, as most of you probably know but I also tend to frequent the Otaku Lounge. I'm trying to visit the other Forums, but that's a slow work in progress. So, erm...nothing else new now *waves* this thread is still a great read![/COLOR]

[COLOR=SlateGray]The sound of rushing footsteps and the laughter of children is what the Priest woke up to, expecting to look around and see his dusty old shelves filled with Bibles and books, he was instead greeted by canvas walls, silhouetting people outside as they milled around, going about there business. The young man reached for his glasses, still slightly confused as to where he was...and why his feet and muscles ached so much. Then he remembered, the day before was when he met up with Elanna and walked with her the Fair, now, he was here...it was quite obvious now he remembered and he shook his head, curing himself as he stood up, only to be stopped by yet another confusing obstacle. Imric's head hit the roof of the tent, quite suddenly as it was about a head shorter than him and rather flexible. He shouted in shock before collapsing back down chorused by the laughter of the people outside. A young boy stuck his head into the Priests tent and giggled, wrinkling his dirty nose, "Are you alright, mister? We was thinking that you'd never get up." Imric shook his head and looked, quite clearly, confused. "Why, what time is it?" he asked, rather croaky from his rude awakening. "Time to get your young self up! The Fair is getting into full swing, young man!" the shout of an old woman spurred Imric into an unwilling action. He pulled on his robes and hung his cross around his neck, walking out into the sun and stretching. The boy 'oohed' as he noticed the silver sparkle in the fresh light, "Look moma, he's a Priest!" "Be quiet now, it's rude to point!" "But maybe he can help Grandpa..." the boys voice trailed off and he tugged on Imric's robes. He looked down and smiles warmly, "I'll try my best, young man." with that, he picked up the boy and walked over to his family?s tent, setting him down and walking in to assist the first person in a long, long time.[/COLOR]

[B]Well, I probably won?t get in, but I might as well give it a shot ^_^ This RPG style is totally new for me and it?s a brilliant idea.[/B] [COLOR=SlateGray][U][B]Sign up for Spade 2[/B][/U] [B]Name:[/B] [I]Blair Connor[/I] [B]Age:[/B] [I]28[/I] [B]Gender:[/B] [I]Female[/I] [B]Appearance:[/B] [I]Clad in her crimson robes adorned with gold, this women stands out from others as a proud criminal from Kalenbore. Her short black hair is perpetually messy but the style seems to suit, not taking anything away from her elegant face, decorated with the occasional freckle and two dark green orbs that are her eyes. Her expression is usually one of seriousness as she concentrates hard on the mission at hand, but a smile does come often?usually after entering a pub. Weapons: Blair has always been known to use a short sword as her main weapon, also using her fists and legs to great effect when the enemy is unarmed. She prefers not to use guns, for personal reasons, and will never admit why to the rest of the Spades, rather opting to throw a rock at the enemy than shoot them. (Which, also, has quite a good effect!)[/I] [B]History:[/B] [I]Ah yes, thinking about my past always brings emotions flooding back to the surface, let?s see?.now where to start? Well, I suppose the beginning is the best place I?m going to get; I was born in Kalenbore on a sunny morning in January, my mother and father smiled down as they looked at me, a full mop of black hair already covering my head, heh, I must have been quite a sight now I think about it. But let?s continue, the first few years of my life weren?t very interesting, I learned the basic skills that any child needed to learn for survival, but once I reached my eighth year of existence, all that peaceful bliss and ignorance that only a young child can have was taken away from me. I was trained to fight and to be a criminal. It?s not usually the kind of training you?d expect proud parents to give their only daughter, but when I questioned their intentions they merely shrugged it off and labelled it with ?traditions?. Keeping this in mind and never questioning them again, I continued to train and to their great pleasure, I became one of the strongest of my age group. Even most of the boys were no match for me *ha ha* I really was a tomboy *sighs*. When I turned sixteen, another massive change crossed my life?s path. But this was?.not for the best. When rather crude guns had first started being used, my father was one of the unlucky ?volunteers? to test these terrible man killers. He, and five other men, were taken into a forest to go target shooting. After a few hours of loading, firing and repeat, the guns started to emit a rather putrid smelling smoke. The scientists thought nothing of it and told the men to continue, some tests still needed to be carried out. Most of them left after that, not trusting these new man made weapons, but my father was a fool and stuck with it?. only to have the damned thing explode in his hands?. the memory is not?something I want to dwell on. After that day I fought with all my heart, my father always in my mind, the driving force behind my actions, loosing is not an option for me any more. When I was 20 I started my life in the group known as the ?Spades?. This is when my third and most important change happened, I met ~insert Noah?s friend?s name here~ that is a memory I hold on to, even though at the time I just couldn?t tell him the way I felt?the thought of rejection was just too painful to think of. I know now that my mission is all that matters and following my leader?s orders is a must, finding the Symerals is our number one goal but if I must kill ~???~ in the process?then it?s something that I will have to face.[/I][/COLOR] [B]I hope this is up to standards[/B]
