[COLOR=Indigo][SIZE=6][U][B][CENTER]TABOO[/CENTER][/B][/U] [/SIZE]
[COLOR=Navy][B]Taboo[/B][/COLOR] (also tabu) >noun (pl. taboos or tabus) a social or religious custom placing prohibition or restriction on a particular thing or person. >adjective 1 prohibited or restricted by social custom. 2 designated as sacred and prohibited. >verb (taboos, tabooed or tabus, tabued) place under such prohibition. -ORIGIN from Tongan, 'set apart, forbidden'.

In every place something is forbidden; these forbidden things are taboo. It can be hard to understand why five simple letters can cause so much hate and sorrow. Everyday somebody is cast out because of something they did, the way they look, their religion.

Far away though, in a village they took taboo to the extreme. For there in that very village a group of heros were accused of a crime they did not comment. These heros were the saviors of the village yet, one of these heros was not so hero-like. She began to stray from the set for her and decided to stray from that chosen path. She created a beast that attached and destroyed most of the village. When the rest of the group arrived they were startled to find that one of their own had turned against them. As they watched the beast create chaos they had no idea that they could create such a beast.

Once the creator of the beast realized what she had done, she quickly lost control of the beast. The beast went on a rampage and destroyed building by building in mere-seconds. In a fiery blaze the beast killed five of the heros leaving the Hero of Life and Death. The Hero of Death, who had created the beast , stepped forward knowing the only way she could destroy the beast was by scarifying her own life. The Hero of Life watched with sad eyes as his beloved scarified herself to cleanse her soul and for the sake of the innocent lives of the village. In a flash that quickly changed the night to day for an instant; the Hero of Death disappeared with the beast leaving a demolished village with many questions.

Like most confused people who are to confused to sit down and listen to reason instead of stating the first thing that came to their minds, The citizens cast an accusing finger at the Hero of Life. He was placed under trail and found guilty of creating the beast and killing the other six heros. The judge sentenced him to be hung of the tallest tree by the shortest rope and to be left there forever as a warning to future generations. Also the mayor made a law that stated, Anyone that with the abilities of any of the seven heros would be banished and/or killed. Thus this law was approved causing many young children to lose their lives by the gallows or by their lack of survival skills.

Ten years later, the descent of the Hero of Life had formed a santray under the village even though he did not posses the abilities that his ancestor had. He found an abandoned warehouse with an elevator that lend to the sewers of the village and built a hidden village for people that were taboo. He thought himself lucky when he found a child with the skills of one of the heros. He then decided to find the other six and train them to use their powers and give them a almost normal life. His name was Hiroshi. Hiroshi had found a few other children that had the skills of the taboo heros but not all of them. He sent spies to the upper village to find children that didn?t fit in or who were on trail. When he got a lead Hiroshi went to the upper village and at night and toke the children away with him.

But, at the base of the tree were the Hero of Life was hanged stood a person with the skills of the Hero of Death and Life. That person was the forgotten child of the Hero of Life and Death. That child grew up alone in a separate village and was visited by its parents intill the tragedy that happened ten years ago. The child had witnessed the death of its father and at that moment a deadly flame burned the heart of the child. The child swore revenge on the village and trained for ten years, gathering supporters and creating evil monsters that could kill in seconds. Hiroshi had a feeling that this would happen one day but he never knew when and he didn?t linger on those thoughts.

Name: Ziarre Vengelia

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Appearance: See attachment

Personalty: Ziarre is an enigma. People don't know what to expect of her. She is usually silent and calm. Nothing much seems to surprise her, it is like she expects that anything can and will happen. She is also a very threatening character and doesn't like being pushed around.

Bio: Ziarre was an orphan at the age of 3. Her parents and her sister died in a bizarre accident that no one knows how it happened. They found Ziarre's parents and sister dead with their eye wide open with looks of horror upon their faces.

The villagers knew at once what she was and banished her from the village. Ziarre remained in the woods for a year, learning wood lore and hunting. Hiroshi heard of Ziarre and tracked her down quickly. When he entered the woods she lived in, tracking her was not so easy. She had learned the woods to the utmost degree and this was her realm.

Eventually Hiroshi found her and took her to the place where other 'special' children lived.

Hero of: Death

Weapon(s):
1) Hades Bow: A blackwood bow that is named after the Greek god of the underworld. It has a devastating effect to anyone it hits. Normally the arrows are poisioned at the tip, but when Ziarre decides to use the full capability of the bow, instant death in the result.
2) A set of daggers: Ziarre uses these when she is using stealth. Like the bow, she is deadly with aim and hits her target everytime, most times the result is death.

Magic:
1)Death spell: Ziarre uses this very rarely. It requires a lot of energy and rage for this spell to be successful. It requires Ziarre to draw Hades to the full and a circle of death symbols revolve around the tip of the arrow. When the arrows is released and hits its target, everything in a 5 mile radius is completely devastated and killed.

OOC: Very good Bloody Moon. I love this idea!

[B]Gender:[/B] female
[B]Appearance:[/B] [URL=http://www.psycko-hentai.de/grafix/gallery/bg29/lain7.jpg]*clicking noice*[/URL]
[B]Personalty:[/B] Mizu is a very angry person, and will attck without hessition. She dosen't care about anybodies feeling and hates socializing. It takes a while for Mizu to become used to somebody and even longer to start being friendly. One of the few people that she is comfertable with is Azuru though that dosen't mean she isn't rude to her. Mizu has major anger mangement problems and will lash out at anybody if they annoy her or talk to much. Mizu normally stays away from new people and to relive strees or just for fun she tends to go running. Her ice cold-sad eyes hide a troubled and painful past.
[B]Bio:[/B] Mizu has lived at the underground sanctuary since she was three. Which is one of the reasons she is so cold to outsiders. Mizu dosen't remember any happy moments from her past and can't remember the last tiime she smiled. Her parents feared her and yet, they cared to much about her to report her. So they put her on the streets and came to her every night to take care of her in secret. One night though they didn't come and by then Mizu was three and able to walk. As she wandered the streets she saw a hanging taking place. When she got close inof to see who was being hung she saw her mother and father's bodies hanging limp with ropes around their necks. As she stifled a cry she heard the people around her talking about why her parents were hung on the gallows. They said it was because they were thought to be members of a underground society that keep crimanals safe. Luckly the adults around her did not noticed her as she stumbled through the scattering crowd. When Mizu walked outside the village gates, she didn't realize that she had, she sone came to a tree. When she looked up she saw something that changed her forever, a skelton with a sign around its neck. Mizu couldn't read the sign but she had heard of this man that was hung. Hudling down Mizu tried to cry but couldn't after a few hours a sturdy hand landed on her shoulder. When she looked up she saw a comferting face, something she hadn't seen in a long time. THe man toke her to the underground sanctuary and explained everything to her even though she was only three. She is very close to Hiroshi because of his kindness to her and also how he protects her from the other residents of the underground sanctuary and from the new members.

This looks like a good one!

Name: Lazarus Targan

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Appearance: Lazarus wears a black and white long-sleeved t-shirt, with the colours diagonally on either side of the shirt, with a black leather jacket over it. This jacket has spikes on the left shoulder. He wears combat trousers where one leg is white and the other is black, and his boots are black with white jagged streaks down the sides, and one white glove and one black. He has black feathery wings sprouting from his back, but he manages to hide them quite well underneath his jacket. His hair is quite long and black, but also spiky, with a white streak through the middle, and his eyes are very dark brown, almost black.

Personality: Lazarus is bold and outgoing, although he has been outcast from society because of his wings, and his strange abilities. He tends to shy away from large crowds, but in a small croud he is always the loudest one there. He is hesitant to use his powers, because he is not fully sure of what he can do.

Bio: Lazarus was found in the underground village, underneath the tree where the Hero of Light was hanged. He was only 8 years old when he witnessed his father killed, and from that moment he swore revenge. His rage burned within him like a black fire inside his heart, and he trained every day for the next 10 years to take revenge upon the village who caused his father to die. Now he is finally ready, and very soon the darkness within him will take hold. He has created an almost unstoppable force of creatures and human supporters to take revenge upon those who killed his father, and he will strike...

Hero Of: Child Of Life and Death

Weapons: Swords Of Black Light-These twin short swords are powerful weapons which, as well as being razor-sharp and lethal in close-combat, can fire bolts of black lightning at his foes.

Daggers Of Eternal Suffering-These thrown weapons do not kill the target, but place them in an unimaginable amount of pain until they decide to take their own life. Lazarus designed these weapons to return his own suffering to those who caused it.

Magic: Rain Of Darkness-This causes beams of dark energy to project from Lazarus' body and into the air, then rain down upon his enemy, either destroying them or injuring them.

Breath Of Life-This takes a huge amount of energy from Lazarus, but can bring any one person he chooses back from the dead, into proper life, rather than the state of living death that his creatures are in.

Angelic Arrow-This creates an arrow and a bow made of pure good energy, and can destroy a dark creature with a single strike. This takes a reasonable amount of energy, not as much as the Breath Of Life spell.

Dark Beam-This is a beam of extremely powerful energy, which can reduce any living tissue to its original, primordial state. In effect, it causes life to grow in reverse, but much speeded up. It can also incinerate stone, metal and most other non-living substances.

(Hope this is okay, please PM me if its not, and also I'm not sure if my Bio goes with your original story, please clear this up if possible. Thank you!)
