Revelation Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 [size=1][color=999999][B]Warning:[/B] This RPG will have coarse language, sexual content, violence, and many scenes that those who post may not want to know. Post with caution. And if you cannot handle this, please exit this area. Thank you. ------------------------------------------ It was about 100 years ago that the first League of Extraordinary Gentlemen were assembled to stop The Phantom from blowing Venice to ruins. But, as their mission extended further, they had found a spy within their League. The oh-so famous Dorian Gray, the Immortal of the League, had betrayed the League and collected the blood of Willamina Harker, the Vampire, Captain Nemo's science, the elixir in which causes Dr. Jekyll to transform into Mr. Hyde, and the skin of Rodney Skinner, the Invisible Man. It was to be given to Richard Roxbough, who would then give those items to the highest bidder and claim profits for himself. The League consisted of seven people. Dorian Gray, a man who made a Faustian wish to never age, to never die, and have his portrait age as he never ages, Allan Quatermain, a mercernary adventurer who was known to find King Solomon's Mines, Tom Sawyer, an American agent who's life was filled with adventures when he was young, Willamina Harker, once an assistant school mistress who was engaged to a Jonathan Harker was turned into a vampire, Dr. Jekyll, a man who created a serum that now turns himself into a monster known as Mr.Hyde, Captain Nemo, a scientist, inventor, pirate, and such, he created the first automobile, and the fastest ship of the sea- The Nautilus, and last, but not least, Rodney Skinner, calling himself the "Gentleman Thief" stole a serum, created by Hawley Griffin, that made him the invisible man. With those seven, they were to save the world from great peril, especially from creating even more monsters, vampires, invisible men, and more inventions that would make the world spin counter-wise. ------------------------------ The year is 2004, and a new League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is needed. The box containing the items in which was to be given to the highest bidder had been found and is now ready to be given again. But this time, more is at stake. A ritual including those items could bring the world into peril, it could bring the ultimate apocolypse. It is up to the new League to make sure that the world does not know of such great powers. ------------------------------ Alright...that was what is to happen. Now I need 6 others to join me in this adventure and I need at least 5-7 others to be the bad guys and lots of people to be henchmen. Are you up for the Challenge?

[B]Bio:[/B] Recruited into S.W.A.T. and F.B.I. before the age of 17, Alexandra was known for her great aim, stealth, agility, knowledge, bravery, loyalty, strength, and sense. Her whole life, she had never needed anything other than friends and family. Until that fateful day, she was a dying girl. She had been shot near her lung and she was dying. Her heart stopped, her breathing, everything stopped. She was said to be dead, but in reality, she was wide awake. She was given a serum to live, but it only was rejected. One day, she awoke and remebered nothing from that day on and before. Bits of her past flood her mind, but all she can do is try to place the pieces together. Her past is a mystery, and herself as well. ---------------------------------------- Spots are saved for Metatron, Annie (i think), and some other person. I can't seem to remember.[/size][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raiha Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 [color=royalblue]Birth Name: Lidan Eschecle Srumise Code-Name: Vicoden Age: 29 Gender: Female Ability: Ability to control the actions of others by physical contact, but to a limited extent. She can dull the senses to the point of no return. Basically, she will stop your senses until you won't even realize she's gutting you. Nationality: Chinese/German Occupation: Language instructor, doctor, and physicist Weapon: Leafblade, poisoned hairpins, and a silver comb activated by blood. Appearance: Aside from the various veils, skirts, and shawls, she wears black lingerie. Location: Guanzhou, China. Bio: The daughter of a doctor and a high class stripper, Lidan is well versed in both of her parents "arts." She went to school and excelled at both linguistics and sciences, majoring in bio chemistry, focusing on the mechanics of the nervous system. After graduating, she met her mother, who taught her how to use her body rather than her mind. Lidan picked up everything well, including the various methods of seduction employed by her mother, which incidentally led to Lidan's creation in the first place. Her special gift was imparted to her by her mother's touch, a gift that would leave her mother and take its place in her daughter's body. Then she was offered a job by the Chinese government and leapt at the sudden oppertunity to put her skills to some use. The government used her well, employing her communications skills, but never really exploiting the rest of her knowledge. She keeps this to herself, although it's written in plain sight. Anyone could look and see what she does and how she does it...but nobody ever does, and she doesn't mind. One evening, she recieved an e-mail from an unknown source and an untraceable signal. It asked her to return to the place where she met her mother, and she complied. At the club, she was introduced to a figure who's face she never saw. He, or she, made her an offer of sorts. She now makes her desiscion.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakura Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 [COLOR=darkblue][b]Name:[/b] Kari Sanai [b]Age:[/b] 22 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Ability:[/b] Kari has the power to morph into any animal or creature, any creature she can come up with or animals that exist. She morphs to killer animals/creatures to defeat her enemies. [b]Nationality:[/b] Japanese [b]Occupation:[/b] Leader of a Gang [b]Weapon:[/b] A Glaive and a shukusen, It's a heavy fan(The old type). It has sapphire blue silk on thin, elegantly pierced steel ribs. They're dull at the base with razor-sharp ends. She keeps it tucked in her belt. It proves to be a good weapon and easily tricks the enemy. She carries 2 guns in holsters on her belt and a knife in her boot and of course, herself. [b]Appearance:[/b]See attachment. You've used this picture before Arika so it should be familiar. I hope you don't mind me using it ^_^;. [b]Location:[/b] Tokyo, Japan [b]Bio:[/b] Kari Sanai is known in all of the major gangs in Japan. She's the fiery girl that spells trouble if you're around her. She learned fighting, martial arts and other deadly skills in an abbey where they trained young girls to become killer weapons. All of the girls were plugged in with a chemical that would develop and leave them with individual powers. The teachers would check by torture and fighting to see what triggered their powers and how to get them to harness the powers and learn to bring them out by themselves. Kari was a fast learner and was soon rocketting through the stages of development while most of the others were still needing to be pushed for power. Kari started off her morphs as domestic animals like cats and dogs, then to smaller creatures like mice and cockroaches, then dangerous animals like Lions and Tigers. She kept going until she had learned all of the animals on earth. Then she started her creations of monsters and soon she had graduated before everyone else. When it came to the test for graduation, she was tested in martial arts, fighting skills, defence, her developed powers, her knowledge in technolegy and her knowledge in weapons and her aim, she's a deadly aim with her shooting weapons and throwing weapons. She passed easily as if it was nothing. The scientists tried to figure out why she was a faster learner than all of the others but they came up with nothing and let her go, as a parting gift they gave her a silver bracelet. Kari left the abbey and headed back into the world that she hadn't seen for 6, going to 7 years. Kari growled at the bracelet as she got into town, she had suspected something abou it from the beginning, she took it off and saw the tracker on the underside. She glared at it and crushed it in her palm. That was when she went to the local bank to hack into a rich person's bank account. She took the money from the ATM and bought herself new clothes, weapons and food to satisfy her hunger. She looked up a phonebook for her old house and went there. She faintly remembered it and went inside, she went to her room and growled at it. It didn't seem the same to her anymore. She took her shukusen that she used to play with and tucked it into her belt. She left the house and soon clashed with a Tokyo gang in the city. They called themselves the Wolves. Kari easily defeated the leader with her glaive and they made her the new leader. For the next 3 years, she travelled with her gang and they had nicknamed her Joo Ohkami, Queen of the Wolves. They called her Ohkami for short. They soon found out about her powers of morphing and accepted it. She had become quite accustomed to the city again and was eating with the Wolves in a fancy cafe when she heard her cell ring. She picked up and heard a muffled voice, hidden by a voice transformer. It told her to go to the High Top Club which was on a top floor of a large building. She was unsure but decided to see what it was about anyway. If worst came to worst, she could always morph.[/COLOR] [b]OOC:[/b]Sorry if the Bio's a bit long. Most of the beginning is just boring. PM me about any changes or if you're confused about anything.

Circ Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 Name: Mark Tymour Age: 34 Gender: male Ability: Electrokinesis. Mark can disrupt electric field, causing surges or dampening them. He can also cause horrible headaches by disrupting nervous impulses in the brain. Nationality: Canadian Occupation: Stock Broker Weapon: A staff with a blade at both extremities he bought on a travel in China, but he's a bit clumsy with it. (That weapon has a name, but I don't remember it :sweat: ) Appearance: pic Location: Toronto Stock Exchange Bio: Mark Tymour was born to a wealthy torontonian family. From his youngest age, he demonstrated an amazing talent with numbers and accounting, so his parents happily funded his studying and the best universities one could offer.While he was at the bank with his aging mother, a group of thug attempted to rob the bank, but a mysterous surge in the building's power system caused a burst of lightning from the elegant chandelier to hit the thugs, killing two of them. After several similar incidents, Mark began to experiment his power, to a point with which the Toronto Stock Exchange had their whole electrical system checked due to the frequency of the surges Mark used to crash the computers when the prices when too high or too low. He lived in fear of someone discovering his secret, a fear that realized the day a strange shrouded man stopped him in his house's entrance, saying he'd have a proposition. Mark is there mostly out of fear. Fear for his family's reputation, fear from emprisonment, fear from being executated. He's a bit impressionable, and pointing a gun at him to joke is a good way to get your brains fried out. Mark suffer from Indiana Jones syndrom: he always gets in a bit more of trouble than he can get out aone, leaving him battered and bruised, but alive.

Revelation Posted January 9, 2004 Author Share Posted January 9, 2004 [size=1][color=999999]I must have forgotten to add, I need a sample post from several of you that may post. Circéus, I will need a sample post. It will be about a day before you meet me. Raiha, Ohkami.....I know how you post, so there is no need to say that you are not in. I am glad to have you in this adventure. Hmm...another thing I forgot to add is that this will include much coarse language, sexual content, violence, blood and gore perhaps. Well, Circéus, please PM a sample post to me and we shall see if you are in. And another thing those who sign-up should know is that if you toy around with this and take it to a wrong point or do not post with intelligence and detail, then I will ask you to leave and have someone else be in your position. Understood? Or I may just ask you to leave and have you killed. No worries though. Let us hope it will not come to that.[/size][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicky Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 [B][SIZE=1]You guys are lucky I wasn't going to sign-up as a creature like a Werewolf... heh... [U]Sign-Up:[/U] Name: Real name is unknown Code-Name: Leonx Age: 23 Gender: Male Ability: Dark powers, enable him to move objects with a dark force, and also lets him make a barrier around himself and others (If you've seen Teen Titans and know who Raven is his powers are like hers). He can also use this to fly. The only problem is, when he's blinded or cannot see, his powers are no good, and that's a weak point. Nationality: English (Hit me...) Occupation: Currently working for the Army force, as a Sargent. Weapon: Since he works for the Army, Leonx carries a black knife. But, his main weapon is his staff which has a long blade in one end. Appearance: [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=541845[/IMG] Location: Erm... LA... California...? Don't blame me I can't think of anywhere else I know... Bio: Leonx was born in England, well... that is the word that's going around. He spent a few years in England, mostly on his own with one friend, who also had some kind of power or abillity that made him special. Leonx played with his friend, Mark, and also lived at his house. Only two of them lived there, and Mark and Leonx faired well alone. One night, when both boys where out, and Leonx was only 9, his friend was suddenly attacked. Leonx used his special power to help, and Mark did also. Leonx was the more powerful, so he kinda kicked butt. But, one of the attackers covered Leonx's eyes so he could not attack. Even though Leonx can see very well at night, when he was blinded and he couldn't see what was going on he had no idea what to do. A hard blow to Leonx's head knocked him out. When he woke up, his friend was dead, but Leonx could not remeber any of his pasted. He couldn't remeber his real name, and he wasn't sure where he came from. 2 years later, he joined a gang of teenagers, and grew up with them in England for awhile. Leonx was their secret weapon, and they gave him that name, Leonx. For weeks, the gang roamed around with Leonx doing as they please, until one day Leonx knew he was doing wrong. He turned against them all, and made each one run away, except their leader. He began to laugh at Leonx and ask him question about his pasted, like: "Where do you come from?" "Don't you knonw?" This made Leonx mad, and before long he was about to kill the teen. With his last breath, the Teen said: "Evil's in you, don't you remeber?" and with that he died. 6 years later, Leonx grew up learning about the Army. He started off in the cadets, and moved up. He still wants to know what he really was, and who he was. He could remeber one little thing about his parents, about them being different, but he couldn't remeber what. He left his job at the army for a few days, and began to learn fighting styles in LA and all over the world. He was given a staff with a long blade at the end from one master, and told to use it in the future, and make it one with his powers. When Leonx went back to the Army, he was promoted for his fine work, and also for his power, at such a young age. When Leonx was 20, he had learnt a lot, and could use his powers whenever, and for some reason the Army never rejected him. He trained with weapons and fighting styles, and was an important part of the Army. -- If you need a sample, tell me.[/SIZE][/B] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmitri_Dragoon Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 [size=1][color=purple][b]Name:[/b] Drake Devorski [b]Age:[/b] 28 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Ability:[/b] In my terms, he is a shadow dancer. He can control any shadows around him, and can even create shadows. But that is a limited ability and can weaken him. When controlling the shadows, he can use them to cloak himself, or a group of others. [b]Nationality:[/b] Russian [b]Occupation:[/b] Thief [b]Weapon:[/b] Pair of sheath knives. Glock 9mm pistol that he uses when his knives will be useless. [b]Appearance:[/b] I can't find the right kind of picture, so it's going to be written out. Drake wears mostly black, it helps him blend into the shadows he controls. He wears black denim jeans, black motorcycle boots, and a t-shirt of the same color that he always keeps tucked in. On some occasions he will wear a black trench coat. Drake's physical attributes are as follows: He is well built, even though he is a theif, he is large. But in a good way. He stands at six foot seven inches tall. His hair is black, as are his eyes. He has no tattoos, peircings, or scars. Nor does he wear any facial hair. [b]Location:[/b] St. Louis, Missouri, USA [b]Bio:[/b] When Drake was born he did not have his current abilities. He didn't acquire them until he was 16 years of age, when he was being chased by the police. Since then he has used his powers for the wrong purpose. Thievery. When he was 22 years old he decided to go to America, because the items to steal in Russia were limited, and of little value in the weakend economy. When he arrived in America he knew that he had reached paradise. Stupid law enforcement, naive people, and plenty of tall buildings with a plethora of shadows. Within the first day of his arrival he was able to rob seven stores with supreme ease, more so than when he was in Russia. Now he enjoys his occupation to the fullest whenever he feels the need.

One particular demon found a village and utterly destroyed it, leaving only a handfull of survivors, with one woman in particular. Ten months later, the woman gave birth to the demons child, never naming him, for fear of that it may call the demon back if it knew that it had a son. The boy became very ill in direct sunlight, but never became ill other than that. They travelled with the survivors of the village, but in six years, their numbers dwindeled to only the boy. He raised himself, often acting as an assistant to passing samuri. When the ronin that he was working for was attaced by a guild of thieves, the boys latent powers were awakened. He destroyed the group of 120 with the felled ronin's sword, defeating the leader of the guild by burning him from the inside out. When his rage wore off, he ran from the village in fear.

Imp Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 Whoa... There are too many people in this RPG, but I'll join anyways... Now lemme see if I can pick a character different from Arika's... Got it! Just gotta change her bio and... perfect! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [color=red][u]Name:[/u] Rosie Cedwell [u]Code Name:[/u] Rosetta [u]Age:[/u] 20 [u]Gender:[/u] female [u]Abilities:[/u] Rosetta has some fire abilities including heat waves and fireballs, and the ability to withstand heat. She also has hypnotic powers and her gaze can paralyze or confuse others... [u]Nationality:[/u] English/Swedish [u]Occupation:[/u] Singer/supermodel [u]Weapons:[/u] She has a fire ring that controls most of her powers, but otherwise her best weapon is herself. [u]Appearance:[/u] Rosetta is about 5'7" tall and has somewhat short, bright red hair in a spiky ponytail and red eyes with hints of orange and pink. She wears a flowig red and pink-patterned shirt and is either seen wearing a long red skirt or shiny red pants with a purple belt. She also wears hot pink flip-flops and has gold bracelets on both her arms. [u]Location:[/u] London (in England, of course) [u]Personality:[/u] Rosetta is sassy, clever, and does everything with style. She likes to toy and play around with people, tricking them into doing what she wants them to. [u]Bio:[/u] Up until the time when she was about 14, Rosiead no special powers and lived in sadness because she was an orphan and had no friends or anything. Nobody wanted her; she was just "not good enough for them," as most people said when they wanted to adopt a child. After all, Rosie did have some defects: she was almost blind and slightly autistic. She lived in the orphanage in London for a very long time. One day, when Rosie was 7, she was at the orphanage, listening to the people's uninterested comments about her. "I'll find someone someday," she thought, crying slightly. "I hope... Oh what if it's pointless? I'm blind, I can't make friends, what do I do?" Then, suddenly, a sinister voice hissed, "I'll take her..." He spoke like a snake would. "She's very interesting..." And the speaker of the voice picked Rosie up and carried her away. But little did she know she was being kidnapped by a demon... Rosie's life with the demon was harsh; he had some fire powers and used them on her whenever she misbehaved or cried. Within a week, she had third-degree burns covering her entire body. She lived this way for three years, and one time, she was hit hard on the head by the demon and fell into a coma. When Rosie awoke, she was 14 years old and looked quite different. Miraculously, she could see again! And she looked different too! It was soon after that that she discovered her talents and special powers. She became excited when she discovered that she could sing really well and had fire powers like the demon that kept her for a while. So then she decided to become a singer and a supermodel as well while she was at it... Soon, she became slightly famous. However, she was sometimes chased by fans, so she just hypnotized them into going away. Soon after that, she earned the nickname Rosetta. After that, she lived independently, for the next 6 years. She performed and practiced her abilities as well (she became an expert at hypnotizing herself!). Somehow, someone found out about her talents and called her... Rosetta thought it was just another fan. She lazily picked up the phone--it was not a fan. "Hello, Rosetta. Is that you? This may come as a shock, but I've been secretly spying on you and saw what you can do. I must say I'm..." And then the voice cut off, and straining was heard, coming from the man that had just spoken to her. "We don't need anymore, we're full." "No... just...one more... please..." The man just barely stammered, "We... need... you... Ro... set... ta..." And then he hung up. Rosetta knew there was trouble, and she had to go find out.

Pandemonium Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 [size=1][b]Name:[/b] Alyena Bane [b]Codename:[/b] Gemini [b]Age:[/b] She looks about 29, but she refuses to say anything but ?A lady never tells.? [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Ability:[/b] Alyena is a lycanthrope. However, she?s one of the few that didn?t contract it through a bite or scratch, she was born with it, a chosen in her bloodline. And her breed is a rare one indeed: dragon. She has the ability to shift at will, fully or partially, and she can control the elements of her draconian nature, fire and ice, to a degree, with the aid of her knowledge in the arcane arts. Through her draconic blood, she can also speak through the mind, the only way of communication when in her dragon form. She can guard her own mind well enough, but as far as attacks, she has no physic powers, though a human should never look into the eyes of a dragon. Lycanthropes heal quickly as well. Her body is her own weapon, her powers as a lycan dragon and minor skills in craft her usual only means of defense and attack. She wouldn?t have it any other way. However her history regarding the craft is a double-edged sword, as is her lycanthropy. Her powers are strong, but she lacks discipline (explained in her bio), restraints automatically putting a stopper in some of her control and the extent of her power. And the problems with lycanthropy are the beast within. She can control her changes, unless provoked enough to stir her beast beyond her limits, extreme violence and sometimes blood can do just that. Let sleeping dragons lie, for those disturbed to not take to it kindly. These two things weaken her significantly, but she is always trying to better both aspects. [b]Nationality:[/b] She?s from New Zealand, though her true heritage is lost as she has no living relatives. [b]Occupation:[/b] She doesn?t really have a steady job. Working odd jobs wherever she can find them, she stays just long enough before quitting and moving on to something else. [b]Weapons:[/b] Unlike most lycanthropes, she has no problems with modern technology, owning a [url=http://www.hk-usa.com/pages/military-le/handguns/mk23.html]H&K .45 caliber ACP tactical pistol,[/url] though she?s never actually used it in self defense. She knows how, but she usually relies on her other weapons and considers using guns ?cheating?. She hardly ever carries it. Also, she has a curved dirk, dark silver in color that she usually has sheathed against her right upper thigh. It is a sacrificial ceremonial 8? blade, with a black and crimson hilt of two intertwining woven rope, leading to a dragon curled around a crescent moon. She has no other weapons, besides those that come naturally to her. [b]Appearance:[/b] [url=http://www.epilogue.net/cgi/database/art/view.pl?id=10701&genre=2]Alyena, with her dragon form behind her, and her ?familiar?, Virgo, just above them.[/url] And a [url=http://www.epilogue.net/cgi/database/art/view.pl?id=47828]close up of Alyena,[/url] just before the incident with the watermancer in LA. Her hair remains the same charred-black chestnut, and her eyes the same eerie yellow-green that always kept her apart from the rest of her family and the rest of the world, it would seem. She doesn?t usually wear anything too formal, anything past a nice, but still slightly ?gothic? skirt is something that doesn?t belong in her closet. She has a [url=http://www.epilogue.net/cgi/database/art/view.pl?id=39151]small tattoo[/url] of the same dragon that adorns the hilt of her blade about three inches below where her collar bones meet. Almost translucence, it darkens like charcoal stardust when she uses her powers, but usually is completely invisible. [b]Location:[/b] She lives on the border of Washington state and Canada, going to jobs in either, her home on the ocean front in a small town usually not on any map. People aren?t her specialty, so she likes the remote location just fine. She likes to move around a lot, but she has been coming back to this house for the past six years, so there must be something she likes about it. [b]Personality:[/b] Alyena is, in many ways like the nickname she chose for herself. She walks two paths, and her personality walks similarly the same way. She is a rather laid back, easy-going type, somewhat quiet reclusive and not very social, but hardly stuck up or unapproachable. She can be quite friendly at times, and sometimes a bit too submissive. That?s half her problem. She acts as cold as she can, but it still seems to attract people?s attention. Usually the wrong types of people. But on the flip-side of this cool, calm, and semi-depressed but outwardly happy girl is like the difference between night and day. Perhaps at one time they were both the same side of one silver coin, but now they are split. She hides it and presses it back as often as she can, but her other side is far from human. Her beast that rolls within, sleeping restlessly, wings folded and blood ruby scales settled, is the dark side of the moon. It is an animal. Unbridled in whatever emotion it might feel, waking to do one thing, and that is to feed and bring chaos. It is her other self that she locks away and chains down, buried along with memories of the past. But sometimes, no chains can hold and no cage can contain what lies beneath the surface, and the great crimson winged beast comes out to sate what it has been too long deprived of. [b]Bio:[/b] Born in a small little town in northern New Zealand, Alyena was split between worlds from the beginning. Her father?s side of the family was the side that contained the heritage of the dragon, and her mother?s side was a coven of high Craft users (witches, if you will). Her father, Orrion, never spoke of any of his family, who were supposedly all dead, but he wanted to take Alyena away to various places around the world as soon as possible to ?prepare her?. Her mother, Robyin, refused, insisting she stay with the coven and learn their Craft since her promise of high power was so great. Unfortunately, this created a rift between her parents, but her mother, backed by the ?family? of about 24 Craft users convinced her father to keep the child there until she could chose on her own accord. So Alyena was brought up in the rift between the two, told different things to believe, given different ideals to learn. She progressed slowly in her knowledge of the Craft, as her father continued to stress the importance of her self-knowledge and inner-peace. It was hard for the child, and she could not bear to break either of her parents? hearts, everyday remaining undecided upon her future. Little did she know that her future would be decided for her. On the eve of 13th birthday, a great time for the powers of the Craft to manifest, Orrion stole her away in the night. She followed him willingly, not wanting to disappoint her father, and sure that they would return before sunrise. They did not, and her father brought her to the edge of the land, where the sea came to swallow it up. There, a boat with five armed men dressed in black was waiting for them. Assured by her father that the men were friends, Alyena was about to board when her Robyin and the rest of the coven appeared and demanded she return with them. Helpless, she watched as her parents? verbal fight became physical then magical. Her father drew a strange dagger as her mother cast a spell towards him, the fire reflecting against the odd metal and hitting the young girl squarely in the chest. Both sides ceased fire to run to the girl?s still form. She wasn?t breathing. Orrion and Robyin were frantic, but the coven was still angry and now more so that this man had killed their greatest successor. Orrion grabbed his wife?s hand and slit the dagger over her palm before doing the same to his wrist. Bringing the now crimson dagger to the girl?s lips, he turned it, the two bloods running down the two woven strands, mixing against the dragon?s body and dripping into the prone girl?s mouth from the wings. She stirred, consciousness returning long enough to see her father?s tears and feel her mother?s soft kiss against her cheek before hot red stained darkness overtook her. She remembered nothing else from that night, but the carnage that she woke to the next morning would haunt her dreams until the day she died. They would haunt the coastal policemen?s minds as well, but what could have possibly so brutally ripped apart 31 humans was beyond comprehension to the law enforcement. They allowed the girl to keep the strange dagger that they found grasped in a man?s hand wrapped around the girl?s bare chest when they arrived. The girl had been clutching the dagger to herself, but the disembodied hand and forearm that hung from it seemed to be just as comforting to her. From there, she was put into foster home after foster home, in country after country, something always happening to cause her to run, or her foster family to die. She finally made it to the states, the land of free enterprise. Too bad that enterprise included some scum trying to sell off a girl of 16 years old to men looking for a good time to make some money for heroin. Luckily, the man who she was sold to was not as low as the man who had sold her. He cleaned her up and took her off the streets, never once trying to take what his money had so generously bought. He moved her to LA for a few months where he kept her along with a few other kids, out of trouble, until he took in a kid with the power to harness water. After a few? incidents, he told the kid to get out. Unfortunately for him, the kid didn?t feel like cooperating. That was the first time that Alyena shifted and remembered what happened. She ran after that, and memories of previous shifts started coming back to her. They were only in bits and pieces, but they were more than enough. Much more. She seemed to just disappear for a few years, before resurfacing in Washington state. This is also the time when she picked up Virgo, or at least, finally noticed him. If she were a true Craft user, he would be a familiar to her, and help her better her power, but she knows him only as a strange bird and her only friend. From there, she bought her small but comfortable house and moved up and on. Or at least moved on. Until a few months ago when there was a mysterious incident at a bar in LA? when Alyena returned home, she found a strange letter that she didn?t answer. Then, she received a phone call that she let her answering machine pick up. Still, the letter remained on her desk and the message on the machine un-deleted. Split between decisions, and worried about exposure, she headed towards LA, looking for answers, or perhaps just another piece of herself. I'm sorry that its so long... *runs and hides* [/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellerby Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Very good idea! My compliments to the che-- thread starter. [color=0033333] [b]Name:[/b] Matt Sliger [b]Age:[/b] 25 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Ability:[/b] Aquarius. Matt can literally breathe using water. It's as if he were born in the water due to his great abilities in swimming. His maneuvering abilities in the water are amazing and no one can beat him when it comes to water. He also has a special voice box which allows him to understand sea animals. Not hearing them in english but he just understands them using different brainwave patterns. [b]Nationality:[/b] Canadian [b]Occupation:[/b] Professional Aquaneer/ScubaDiver. Matt has access to any water transportation you can imagine. [b]Weapon:[/b] A waterblade created from a special metal which was made entirely from things you would find in the water. Mainly made from the water itself, built not to rust. It looks like the weapon in [url=http://www.squareamp.com/wallpaper/FF10%20-%20Tidus%20in%20the%20Water%20(1024).jpg]this[/url] picture. [b]Appearance:[/b] [img]http://www.freewebs.com/lrb/Tidus2.PNG[/img] [b]Location:[/b] Currently at in the middle of the Pacific Ocean doing his buissness. [b]Personality:[/b] Matt is a real carefree guy who loves the water. Matt enjoys to hang with his friends and just be himself... which would be the life of the part-ay! But he will do anything to make someone feel good or save his friends. There's only one thing that he hates about himself, revenge. If someone makes him angry or does something really bad, he won't be able to control his anger. This has never happened but it will. [b]Bio:[/b] His father was a Marine Bioligist so Matt was around the sea his whole life. His mother was killed at an early age so it's just him and his father. He recently found out that his father died in an Ice Burg crash. Matt was recruited by the World Aquaneer Association because of his great knowledge of water. Matt knows that eventually his time will come to die but he doesn't know when or how so untill then he has trained with his sword and the water. He has alot of friends due to all his travelling but he never sees them alot.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartless Me Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Thought it'd be interesting to play a villain for this. I need to talk out some details with Arika though. :P Name: Xander Vorath A.K.A. Wraith Age: Nobody quite knows but their estimating him to be in the mid to late 30's based on his appearance. Gender: Male. Ability: Intangibility at will, Undead in nature so lifespan is infinite, life drain(in wraith spirit form), Undead touch, if a mortal dies by his hand they raise as either zombie, skeleton, or poltergheist. Nationality: Appears caucasion Occupation: Head of a secret terrorrist organization. Weapon: whatever he can grab and himself. Appearance: [url]http://www.scarecrowvillage.com/images/wraith.jpg[/url] wraith form (always intangible in this form and usually invisible but unable to physically attack). [url]http://news.bbc.co.uk/olmedia/680000/images/_684344_koresh150.jpg[/url] in mortal form. Location: You won't find him, he'll find you. Bio: Xander opened his eyes as he looked up at the dungeon ceiling. he'd not rested much as long as he had been stuck in this place. the rank stench of death emenating from the walls of the labyrinth. He sighed and clipped his sword sheathe to his hip and traveled deeper into the twisting cavern, ever vigilant in his search to find the relic he had heard was within these ancient halls that was said to grant it's owner eternal life. His hand traced the walls that he had traced day before day before. he sighed and stretched his neck almost loosing hope when his eye was caught not by something on the walls or floor but something on the ceiling. a single strand. upon first inspection he dismissed it as a single thread of an extinguished spiders web. However, when he followed the thread to it's source he seen not a webbing arachnids lair but a thin line almost unnoticable to the untrained eye. His eyes widened at his new discovery. Almost without thinking he grabbed the string to examine it when he felt a single jolt not into him but from him. he felt weaker even though he felt his life force draining away slowly he became aware that the thin line was opening at a rapid rate. Xander had dropped to his knees to find the string came with him. pulling on the string had dropped the staircase that had opened going up. With an excited mind he headed for the staircase. with a dying body, he traveled slowly. The stairs seemed to go up forever taking him hours to finally reach the top where two giant stone doors stood. The poor dying mans eyes watered as he tried and tried to push the door open to no avail. Finally with the last ounce of what he thought was his concious energy he gave one last valiant effort at forcing the door ajar. Though he succeeded in pushing the door far enough to see inside his body had expired due to the already great strain he had put on the weakened frame. The spirit of Xander Vorath started to rise from his body to go to the afterlife he had chosen for himself, but his will was to strong. He broke free from the tracting light and ran into the door turning around to see his body on the floor just as the door slammed shut. Now in this new dark room, the newly "created" ghost let his eyes adjust to his perfect vision. Just about when the darkness seemed as bright as it would get to him, light burst around Xander. Torches luminesced brightly, detailing the small chamber, it was tall and long going back quite a ways. The chamber itself was obviously carved out of an already existant natural cave. The back of the cave had been caved in, possibly by an explosion or a well placed hit with a hammer and chisle. In the back of the den was a small alter lifting about three feet off the ground, two feet wide and two feet long. More of a pedastal it looked like. What looked like a pillow sat atop the uprising and inset the pillow was a medallion and a necklace. This is what brought Xander back from the shock of his sudden death. The artifact that he had searched all his life, and now unlife was finally within his grasp. Slowly he approached it, sheer mental will pushing his spirit on. since he had no more physical form that is all he had to drive him. When he stopped before it he gasped slightly. The medallion looked to be oriental in nature which confused him since he was in the northest regions of South America in the incan ruins. It was covered in an ancient dialect of kanji that he could not decipher and was inscribed with pictures of the animals of the chinese zodiac. Quickly he felt his greed and ambition take hold of him as he reached for the chain to put it on he gasps to find that his hand passes through it. He then realizes that he is infact dead as he thought. He tried to cry but found himself unable. He tried to reach for it again but once more he missed. In a fit of rage he swung his fist and the pillow was flung off the pedastal. His eyes widened by his display of power and anger as he looked down at his achievement. he pushed all his will and ambition into touching the medalllion and when he felt his fingers curl around the metal and pick it up he smiled wickedly. He felt the power of the medallion flow through him almost instantly infusing him with new life. The body that had belonged to him he felt the bond wiht it shatter as it turned to dust. He had a new body. that body was the Medallion. He knew as long as the medallion was safe, that he would never die. so he vowed to keep it and keep it safe. That was the year 1788. The year Xander Vorath died and Wraith was born. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 [i][color=lightpink][b]Name:[/b] Simone Crawford [b]Age:[/b] 22 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Ability:[/b]Pyrokenetics. She grew this ability at a very young age. ARound th age of 3 years old. She grew upset about something and she seemed to be drawn by the glowing of the flames. She laughed some and seemed to play with the fire place and fires seemed to pop up in the fireplace without any notice at all. Her parents started to wonder how the fire started up by itself. They never once thought it was their little girl doing it. On the day of her birthday. She was becomming 4 years old. Looking at the candles and a smile grew on her face she had saw the flames and touched it with her finger. Her parents started to freak out but she never cried or felt the pain from it. Her parents didn't really understand what had really happened to her or why it had happened in the first place. They looked into it and found out that she had a very rare case of Pyrokenetics. [b]Nationality:[/b] She is full German. And can speak in both English and German fluently. [b]Occupation:[/b] She works a german whore house for extra cash. She doesn't have a real occupation, and never seemed to have one. [b]Weapon:[/b] A silver .45 Colt Hand gun. [b]Appearance:[/b] *Look at Attachment* [b]Location:[/b] Berlin, Germany [b]Bio:[/b] Simone was born on April 22. It was a cold and rainy day, dark and dreary. Just a cold miserable day for anyone. Her parents were overly happy about her comming so soon. She was born about two months early. A pre-mature child from the start. Only being 14" and 2.8 lbs. She continued to grow up as a normal, yet above average child. She learned to speak a bit by the time she was 1, and able to fully walk. She started to understand things more clearly and quickly, learning how to clean up after herself and how to operate things. By the age of 3 to 4 years old. She grew to adore fire and seemed to be drawn to it. She played with it at times and even touched it a few times as she was growing older and more aroused by it. Now 10 years into the future, her life wasn't too bad at all until she hit the age of 18. She was kidnapped from her home becuase of her Pyrokenetics. She didn't know who they were or why they had taken her, but she soon found out that they were bad evil men who just wanted her for her powers. But she wouldn't give it to them so they threatened her and tried to take it by force. They continually tried to get it out of her but she ended up escaping from them, and ended up in a whore house. They gladly took her in for shelter and heard all about her story finding it fastinating. Soon enough she was working with the other whores, and was in charge of burning some of the sheets or the beds, or anything that needed burned. She was glad she could help with her powers. She never heard from those men that kidnapped her again. And of course she was thankful for it.[/color][/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
