Daemos Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 [FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=3][COLOR=DarkOrange]THE ADVENTURE BEGINS NOW!! GOT TO THE MAIN ADVENTURE SQUARE FORUM AND LOOK FOR KAYDAERYN! *sign up still open for the time being ... maximum of 12 people ... so sign up now!*[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] Imagine a world torn by wild magic, a magic so violent and uncontrollable it is called the Wraithwind. Imagine a reality that twists itself seemingly at random, where nightmare and daydream both intrude upon the waking realm. Now picture peoples and races forever altered by the flow of the Wraithwind, cat-people, elves, dwarves, and some that cannot be named. Imagine Cities moved at random, lakes upturned, and mountains leveled in the blinking of an eye. Welcome to Kaydaeryn A dangerous world to be sure? this is not your run-of-the-mill fantasy setting, magic is wild and uncontrolled. Tales of cities, inhabitants and all being teleported at random by the Wraithwind are not uncommon. And it is for this reason that the Council of Etus have called upon adventurers from all walks of life to quest for ?The Heart of the Torrent? the place from which the winds flow, and to somehow halt its torrent, or at the least slow it? I the Sage Arturios have foreseen that a great trail awaits those who would risk the journey, and so I will tell you what I know of the birth of the Wraithwind and of our world for those who come from other realms. The Wraithwind was not always a part of our world, indeed it is quite the opposite, the Wraithwind is the result of an ancient and powerful rift to the world of fiends. It grows more unstable with each passing year, yet sadly our ancestors created the rift themselves. It began when a group of Dwarven miners uncovered the ancient seals to the demi-plane that held the massive entity known as Baaloth-Karrh entombed. When the dwarves, not knowing their peril, broke the seal the god Merund placed on that crypt, the Demon destroyed the demi plane in his mad throws to flee before the Senhar became aware of his freedom. However, the destruction of a demi so closely tied to the Shadow plane had unforeseen problems. The plane of shadow forced the rift open from within, releasing the torrent of the energy from the demi-plane?s destruction in a storm of raw magic. For four millennia that storm has raged? and it grows only ever more powerful, fuelled somehow by Shadow. Yet, if one can make it to the gate, and seal the doors of the tomb once more, the Wraithwind will vanish. The Adventure begins in the City of Etus, which is the only remaining bastion of civilization left between the ravages of the Demon and the constant howling of the Wraithwind. Countless refugees from innumerous cities have gathered here, to make a final stand, or die in the attempt. The Peoples of Kaydaeryn Humans are the consummate jack-of-all-trades race, skilled in most areas, but masters of none, they are none-the-less the most plentiful race of Kaydaeryn. Although they vary greatly in appearance from individual to individual, the average around five to six feet in height, and between a hundred to two hundred fifty pounds in weight Elves are a noble and proud race, Immortal and ageless. They are all somewhat thin and delicate in appearance compared to humans, but they are without question the foremost race on the use of the bow. In the arts they are unmatched, save in oral storytelling, for elves seem to have a habit of weaving ever in and out of the subject matter. The Dwarves are no longer seen in Kaydaeryn, for their realm was on the gates threshold, yet their may be some still in a cave near the tomb, trapped by the Wraithwind, unable to get aid. As a race they were stocky and robust, averaging four foot in height. They could hew stone in ways that made humans stare in awe, and sent Elves into creative fits of song and poetry. Cathsheens are lithe feline beings native to the plains of Kaydaeryn, once, they where humans, but the ?Winds blew upon their ancestors.? The legends say their human forbearers kept great panthers as mounts, but in a truly horrific wraithstorm mount and rider became one in the same, and not in the centaur fashion either? at any rate, the Cathsheen stand around five and a half feet tall, are mostly humanoid, save for reverse jointed legs, feline ears, and a tail. To say nothing of their cat-like agility To join the quest to halt the Wraithwind, please fill out this sign up form Name: (fantasy please) Gender: (of your character, and no, unknown is not permitted) Race: (human, elf, or Cathsheen) Age: (please be reasonable?

Cambrian_Explosion Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 OOC: I gotta get into this!!! [COLOR=DarkRed]Name: Reaf Jeggur Gender: Male Race: Cathsheen Age: 18 Description: Stands at about 5'7", weighs about 125 lbs. Wears loose fitting clothes for freedom of movement, with a dark green long sleeve shirt, dark green trousers, and goes barefoot, so he can have a better feel for the ground under his feet. He wears a belt at his waist and over his left shoulder. The former holds his lead balls and sling, the latter holds his spear. His eyes are yellow, and usually impassive, though if he gets mad they almost glow with fierce rage. His hair is dark brown and cut short to avoid blocking his periferal vision and it's much easier to manage. Weapons: Sling with lead balls. When weilded right at relatively close range, these suckers can shatter a shield as easily as bone. Range is about the same as a bow and arrow, and Reaf is about as accurate as a proficient human with a bow. He also has a spear with a head that can be used to slash or stab. I think it's called a halberd, not sure though. And he does have his claws! Personality: Often restrained and reserved, he shows his feelings but they are often understated. For example, when making a decision, he oftentimes states it so mildly that he seems to be making a polite suggestion. Even when talking about personal experience, he will sound like he is talking about something he observed, not something he experienced. The only exception to this rule is his anger. He rarely gets mad, and it takes a lot to do it, but once he loses his temper he becomes very violent very fast. Even when he isn't mad, he is a force to be reckoned with in battle. He is very practical, as demonstrated by his choice of clothing. [/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonsLover316 Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 OOC: Lets make things interesting Name: Jarod Caine Gender: Male Race: Human Age: 21 Description: Stands at 5'9" and weighs just over 200 lbs. Not overly large muscles but well-defined. His hair is a dark brown, almost black, and somewhat shaggy. His eyes, however, are almost completely black, with only faint hints of white at the edges. Loose black pants end just below his calf muscles. Travels barefoot wherever he goes, so his feet are hardened with callouses. His sleeveless black shirt has a slight metallic shine to it and clinges tightly to his upper body. Both articles of clothing are surprisingly enough made of the same material, simply forged (not sewn) differently. On his right wrist is a thick silver armlet with a polished black gem at the center. Unknown magical properties. Weapons: A set of twin blades - Cylos & Delos. Sheaths are strapped to his back. One blade is a deep crimson...almost bloodlike (Delos), while the other is a midnight blue...almost black (Cylos). The blades are sharply curved. As the blade extends out of the hilt, it curves sharply down around the front of the knuckles, just missing the skin, ending about 18 inches past the hand. (About the length of your forearm) Both blades are razor sharp and have some mystical properties. Personality: Never knew his true family. Those that raised him treated him coldly and with malice. Hardened his personality to the point of being numb. Has never felt the need to help or trust anyone unless his own well-being was at stake. Headstrong, Stubborn, Short-tempered. Although at times his actions may seem rash, his mind is quick, cold, and calculating. Never lets his emotions rule his judgement...although he often lets his anger and rage fuel it. In battle he is stealthy and merciless. He relies primarily on his bare hands and his blades...but any of those that have seen him fight...and lived (the number is few)...have seen something else besides strength and agility. Some untapped energy lies within him that not even he is aware of. What people do know of him is this... ...If you hear his blades, you're already dead. If you don't hear them...you're still dead.
