Sign Up Ranger Trail: Unicorn's Companion [M - LV]

[Skye]

[size=1][font=veranda][color=orange]Kaiga scanned the woods surrounding their camp, and slowly turned back to his companions. The faces of four others watched him from the firelight, and he walked back to them, slowly. He wrenched an arrow out of the ground, and the whole thing came. He shook the dirt off of it, and said coldly, ?Sanuko. They?ve been following us ever since we entered the forest.?

The face of the youngest ranger dropped back into full firelight. Shynya growled, ?Damn them. We gave their sentries the right of passage and this is what we get? Siege?? Kaiga said, ?Calm, Shynya. Burien, what say you?? The female archer looked up from her fletching. She was studying the arrow he had tossed to her, and turned it over in her skilled hands again. ?I say they were warning us. If they wanted us dead we would be.?

Burien?s gold-grey eyes were solid and calm. She set the arrow down, and said, ?Kaiga, we leave. I know, it is hard to track through a forest in the dark, but we can do it.? Next to her, a pair of green-gold eyes glowed, and they blinked lazily. Shynya said, angrily, ?We can?t! They?ll kill us!? Burien glared at her. ?I told you. If they wanted us dead we would be. Pack up our things, Shynya. Faein, help her. Kaiga, Jhuya, you come with me.?

The archer stood, and the two older males followed her. She walked to the edge, and said, ?Hoods up.? She put up her own, tightening the clasp on her cloak. As they walked in silence, the two men could see a black figure flashing in and out along side them. Burien stopped, and whistled. A quiet ring, and a small horse trotted into view.

No, a unicorn. Burien walked up to her, and the unicorn dipped her head in greeting. The two-foot pearl colored horn was wielded as a fencer would wield a rapier ? carefully. The unicorn herself was a swirl of black and white, with black socks and pearl white hooves. At the base of her horn was a gem ? tigers eye. Her eyes matched the swirling colors of the jewel, and she watched them, black and white tail swishing back and forth.

Next to her, a very large panther faded into view. The boys noticed that its eyes were those they had seen next to Burien in the camp. Burien turned, and let down her hood. For once, they saw her ears ? pointed. She was half-Elven, they had heard, but they hadn?t believed it. ?Jhuya, Kaiga, this is Lightstep-? The unicorn tossed her head, making her horn glitter in what little moonlight there was. ?-And Midnight.? The panther dipped her front half in a bow.

Burien let her hand rest on the unicorns neck. Kaiga said, ?Burien? Lightstep, will you lead us through the forest?? The unicorn tossed her head again, and nodded. Suddenly, Shynya and Faein burst through the underbrush, with the capsules on their chains around their necks. ?Snake-dogs!? Lightstep reared, and whinnied a challenge as the snake-like hell hounds howled and closed in. Lightstep and Midnight held the group between them.

Kaiga watched in horror and awe as he saw what that horn was for. Lightstep reared again, and brought her hoof down, caving one beasts head in. As fast as the beasts could move, the unicorn whirled, and attacked. Her horn speared one, and she tossed it away with a fling of her head, and the other hounds stopped. They looked at the two dead ones, and then dove at them, tearing apart scaled flesh. Burien cried, ?Quickly! Into the trees!?

She turned, and launched from branch to branch. Midnight followed, as did the other travelers. They traveled from tree to tree, the unicorn galloping past them. They heard the whistle of arrows, and the howls of the snake-dogs. Soon all five hunters dropped from the trees, Midnight following. They stopped, breathing hard. Lightstep cleaned her horn on the grass.

Burien shuddered. ?Getting out is going to be harder than we thought.?

The deal is this: five rangers have been traveling in the Forest for three days. Their lost, and the resident elves aren?t exactly helping them out. If should be easy getting out ? right? Or not. I mean, with people shooting arrows at you in your sleep, and can kill you if they want to, and snake-like hounds following you, it?ll be a breeze, right?

Wrong. Not only that, but you only have a matter of days before the elves decide your dead meat. Or the snake-dogs catch you. Or any number of things. And if you get out, there?s the swamp to face, with its occupants, and after that ? who knows? There were rumors about the plains beyond being infested with magically warped animals. I mean, take the reports on giant rabbits with fangs. Killed a couple farmers, that one did.

Can you get out alive?

I will be playing Burien, and the unicorn and panther. You choose; do you want to be Jhuya, Faein, Shynya, or Kaiga? Go ahead and sign up, and if someone has already signed up as whom you wanted to be, submit the sign up anyway, and I will choose the best one. No bio or personality is included, as it makes for character development. All I ask is not to have someone who is cold and locked in to be perky and ?hihihihi!? happyhappy joyjoy five seconds later. I?ll put up my sign up later.

I will do this in a sort of chapter form, with a different thread/chapter for each setting. Like, for the first one, it will be the forest. And so on. I have no clue how many chapters there will be. But once we exit the different settings, prepare to spot a new thread. ^_^ Oh, and, your character could be killed at anytime, so keep that in mind. Thanks![/size][/font][/color]

His hair is dark navy blue and goes down past his waist, he prefers to wear it tied in a tight pony tail bound with the occasional leather band along it's length, leaving a tufty section sticking out from the last band. He wears square, black-rimmed glasses, giving him a very snobbish and intelligent look, he likes to look down his nose at people, even his friends.

His body is slim but well built, especially his arms, he is very agile and his longs legs help towards him being a fast sprinter. Kaiga usually wears a long, green tunic and dark brown pants tucked into green, sued ankle boots. His sleeves are long and cover his hands, which are usually covered in net gloves. He wears a plain silver ring on his right thumb and a plain silver cross hanging from a thin black leather strap around his neck. His ears are pierced and he always wears a pair of sapphire studs in them.

It falls to her waist in shimmering curls and waves, and she never binds it, unless loosely. The silver is from using magic so often, and her constant connection with nature. Her eyes are a bright gold-grey, and very expressive. She wears a pair of tight doe-skin pants that are laced along the sides, and just hug her hips. They tick into knee-boots that lace up. Her shirt is a loose peasant blouse(long-sleeve), white, and she wears a tough leather vest over it. Of course, her cloak is a dark brown, with a small silver clasp. Though she has never shown anyone, she ahs huge, majestic wings of feathers, in a golden-eagle pattern.

[FONT=Palatino Linotype][COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]I am [b]so[/b] going to copy-right that name. lol

[u]Name[/u]< Faein Blindsight
[u]Age[/u]< 46
[u]Gender[/u]< male
[u]Race[/u]< Part human, possible Elven lineage, and part Kharkien (animal people)(Thought to be something kanine ex: fox, wolf, coyote)
[u]Position[/u]< Scout & Novice Ranger
[u]Appearance[/u]< Faein stands at 5'9'' with a slender, flexible build. His skin tone is mid-tan with a slightest hint of a red tone. His hair is shockingly bright orange/red and falls down the sides of his head and face in disorderly bunches. He has deep green eyes witch reflect light in the darkness, giving another subtle hint to his heritage. His hands a slim and dexterous, his face still young looking (perhaps in his later teens?)because of his mixed ancestry. His ears only barely hint at elven and Kharkien blood.
Faein wears a dark green cloth wrapped around his torso in a specific way so that it covers most of his chest and stomach. Over this is is a ragged dusty-brown article, too thick to be called a shirt and too thin to be called a coat, it splits down the middle and has long sleeves. His pants are a deep navy blue and fit loosely around his nimble legs, a long strip of cloth tied around them at his waist to secure it. He enjoys walking barefoot, but carries around soft, padded boots.

[u]Spells[/u]< [b]Spectre[/b]: Uses natural energies to creat large, floating spectres to either scare or defend against enemies.

[b]Meditation[/b]: Best done when near a lot of growing plants. Comes into deep contact with nature and 'goes to sleep' for a while to heal or think.

[b]Growth[/b]: Can be used on any living object (most effective on plants). Causes a controlled outburst of growth from the lifeform that can be used for any number of things.

[b]Misc. Spells[/b]: He can do a few odds & ends with his stored up natural energy, witch serves various small purposes.

This is a unique one Steffy-saishu ^-^ Very nice work.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[Sword Breaker]

Name: Jhuya Slaterock
Age:189
Race: Dwarf (Like you couldn't guess from the name?)
Weapons: Large Axe, traditional Dwarf style, quite light due to the need for manuverabillity in the forests.
Gender: Male
Position: Ranger/Warrior
Appearance: Jhuya is short, like most Dwarfs, and a stout person, mainly from life under the ground. Old, even by Dwarf standereds, Jhuya proudly displays his greying beared, which drags upon the ground wereever he walks. Most of his body, however, is wraped in a brown cloak. Underneath is a blue leather shirt and pants, which is covered in a light, Dwarven Steal, Chainmail suit. Also, he wares a horned helmet of Dwarven Steal.

Personality: Jhuya, due to life in the mining tunnles of the dwarven realm, is quite a loud speaker. Also, he is quite a stout and couragous man, even at such an old age. Grungy is a heavy drinker, of course, being a Dwarf, it is not often he is seen drunk, due to his high tollerance for Alchahaul. Jhuya always keeps a keg of Ale somwhere on his person, since it is basicly his passion. Though old, Jhuya is quite athletic, life as a ranger, wandering through forests for months at a time, can be quite straining, so Jhuya has becom abnormally agile for a dwarf.

[size=1][font=veranda][color=orange]Well, Jamie-chan and Jacon-kun, you guys pretty much have it down. (I know; you should copyright it. ^_^ Otherwise I?ll keep using it.) And sorry, Sword, I know it doesn?t seem like any of them could be dwarves, but yes, you have to be one of the rangers. -.- Lets just say he?s an athletic dwarf, ai? And yes, TJ-chan, you may. But make it good, all right? I might have to recruit some good rpers if you guys can?t get this right.

As of now(I know, I know) Faein and Kaiga spots are closed. Crucifix and Fire will play them. Now you have Jhuya and Shynya to choose from.[/size][/font][/color]

[Sword Breaker]

Ok, ill just change that around.

[Kayin Cloud]

I'll give up the spot...I don't like to compete for roles

[Skye]

[size=1][font=veranda][color=orange]Thanks, TJ. ^^ Sword, I really, really love your sign up.

Any takers for Shynya? Or anyone think they can do better than Sword? (I?m sure SOME of you out there aren?t afraid!)[/size][/font][/color]
