Sign Up Incarnate (PG-13, VL)

[GuyYouMetOnline]

[i][color=indigo]It is a time of great danger. The world is threatened by a being of great power. She does whatever she pleases and kills anyone who opposes her. Some say she is a demon, bringing destruction to the world. Some believe she is a former tool of the gods, no longer serving them but still possessing the power they gave her. Still others believe that she herself is a goddess, doing what she desires with her creation.[/color][/i]

[i][color=indigo]Her name is Lisiae.[/color][/i]


[color=gray]Keith pulled his daughter, Elia, after him as he ran up the hill as fast as he possibly could. He could see a couple others ahead of him, but most of the villagers had run in other directions. And so many others had died before they could escape. That demon Lisiae had killed them in her destructive rampage.[/color]

[color=gray]At the top of the hill, Keith and Elia stopped. The two of them looked back at the destroyed village. Lisiae could be seen heading to the north, leaving behind the ruins she'd created. The man could make out many bodies in the destroyed village, and knew that there were more that he could not see.[/color]

[color=gray][i]I can't grieve now, [/i]Keith told himself. [i]Right now I need to focus. We need to find somewhere to go[/i].[/color]

[color=gray]He turned to his daughter. "We need to find a place to stay," he said. "Would your old boyfriend be willing to take us in?"[/color]

[color=gray]Keith was referring to a young man named David. David had loved Elia, and she'd loved him. But he'd gone to the nearby city of Alsoto while she'd stayed with her father. At the age of 19, she could have gone if she'd wanted to, but she'd elected to stay behind and help her father run his tavern. Now, just two months later, she and her father no longer had a tavern to run.[/color]

[color=gray]"I think so," Elia told her father.[/color]

[color=gray]"Then let's go."[/color]

[color=gray]Elia nodded. She and Keith took one last look at the destroyed village, then walked away, two more people who'd lost everything they had to Lisiae.[/color]



Okay, this RPG is pretty simple. You'll be playing as people who decide to attempt to defeat Lisiae. Of course, since nobody's been able to do that, you're not just going to go straight into battle with her. Your characters will be attempting to figure out how to defeat her. Keith and Elia have no special role in the story, but you may sign up as one of them if you want to.

Now, I'm not runing this RPG on my own. Sakura has agreed to give me a hand. She and I are doing this RPG togeather. That means that if she says something, it's the same as if I said it. She'll be including plot elements in her posts, so please do not ignore, dismiss, disprove, etc. anything in her posts. She'll be playing as one of the people attempting to defeat Lisiae. I will be playing as Lisiae, so that spot is not open.


Sign-up time! Make your sign-ups good, as I probably won't let everyone who signs up participate (unless I don't get many sign-ups, in which case you'll be accepted as long as your sign-up doesn't suck). Now, here's the sign-up form:


Name: Last name is optional

Age: No younger than 18. I don't want this to be another story where a bunch of kids save the world.

Gender:

Appearance: Either a picture or a description is fine

Personality: This doesn't have to be too detailed, thought it certainly can be if you want it to. Just give us a basic idea of how your character acts.

Bio: Again, this doesn't have to be too detailed. Just a couple paragraphs about your character's life. Definitely include why your character has decided to try and defeat Lisiae.

Skills/abilities: Okay, this is where you put what your character can do. If your character is skilled with a particular weapon, put that here. If your character is a magic-user, describe what magic he/she can do here. And don't hesitate to include non-combat-related skills. Just make sure that what you put has some chance of being relevant (for example, it doesn't matter how good a cook your character may be, but if your character has knowledge of old languages, that's something you should include).


Okay, I just have a couple more things to say. First, make sure your sign-up is consistent. For example, if your character doesn't really care about others that much, than he or she would not be fighting Lisiae for the good of the people. He/she'd need to have more personal reasons.

Second, please keep your character's age in mind when detailing skills/abilities. For example, a guy who's 18 years old isn't going to be a master swordsman. He can know how to use a sword, but he's not going to be an expert with it. Similarly, a guy who's 19 years old isn't going to be the most skilled mage. He can have the abilitiy, but he won't be as good at using his magic as someone who's older and more experienced. So please keep your character's age in mind when deciding on his/her skills and abilities.

Oh, one last thing. For simplicity's sake, as of the start of the RPG all of your characters will be in the city of Alsoto. They don't have to live there, but I want them all there at the start of the RPG. That makes it easier to bring them all into one group.


All right, I think that's everything. PM me if you have any questions.

[Kiba_the_Chosen]

[COLOR=DarkSlateGray]Name: Kent

Age: 35

Appearance: Kent is man with a rounded figure. He?s taller than most men in his village but as skinny as a tree. He wears white clothes like a cleric but isn?t one himself. He is quite distinguished in the village by the golden trims on his white clothes. From time to time when he has to be silent and sneaky he switches to a black robe with a billowing hood.

Personality: He was grown up to learn that the arts of learning was everything to a man. He was taught that magic could be used to solve a lot of tasks but not every one of them. He was a rather smart and agile child and grew up knowing a lot. He is a kind man to many people and will help out anyone in trouble.

Bio: Grown up in a small village to the east of Alsoto. This village poured a life of crops into the city for sale. In his village you could either work and become a very strong man or you could learn and be wise. He chose the path of wisdom. In school he became the top of his class quickly and was able to learn many skills needed. After regular mage elementary he went into a intermediate mage class. He was able to swiftly learn the skills taught to him. In the few years he was in these schools he learned how to perform something basic as fire balls to something as complex as making a weapon out of his surroundings.

Kent finally made it to a mage high school where he studied in the advanced classes. He pretty much learned every spell by he was done with school. Yet the only problem left was to master them all. He devoted the next several years to training these skills. He trained mostly in his back yard because everyone was out in the fields even his parents. He put together spells everyday until he was 34.

On a hot summers day the sun beat down hard. There were dark clouds coming in from the north. Kent didn?t really pay attention but before he new it Lisiae attacked his village. The crops were burnt down in one swift blow. He could feel the souls of most of the villagers dieing. He was teaching the local children that wanted to learn basic magic at the time. He took the kids and started running with them. He pleaded with them to hurry but some said that they wanted to see ?mommy? or ?daddy.? Kent only replied to them that their parents have moved on. They trusted Kent and ran with him. They ran down a hill straight to another village that wasn?t in the path of Lisiae. It was a good five miles to the west and close to Alsoto. Kent decided to leave the children there while he traveled to Alsoto to find answers of how to stop this rampage.

Skills/Abilities: Mastered all basic magic elements. Has an intermediate degree on the secondary magic abilities. Still in the works of the advanced magic abilities. Finally Kent has also mastered all alchemic abilites.[/COLOR]

OOC: PM me if I have to redo anything.

[Sakura]

[B]OOC:[/B] Sorry it took me a while, let me know if anything needs changing. I'll get around to the Bio as soon as I think of something good.
[B]EDIT:[/B] Removed the creature creating, and did the Bio.

[COLOR=Navy][B]Name:[/B] Taura

[B]Age:[/B] 28

[B]Gender:[/B] Female

[B]Appearance:[/B] [URL=http://img99.imageshack.us/my.php?image=tifa7lb.jpg]Here[/URL], her outfit consists of a body-hugging, navy blue tank top, with creamy-beige cargo pants, and heavy black boots. She always wears a bikini under her clothes in case she needs to swim, but if the need arises, she can swim with all her clothes, including her heavy boots and they don't hinder her progress very much. Taura's about 5'6" with a healthy tan, and she's well built from doing a lot of swimming and practising her martial arts.

[B]Personality:[/B] Taura's a free spirit, she is calm, cool and collected like the calm lake, the bubbling stream or the flowing river unless it's a serious problem that arises. She has a bit of a split personality because sometimes she may be brash and aggresive like the angry waves of the sea, instead of calm, she's usually only like that around people she really doesn't like, her enemies, or during battle. Taura has a skill with interrogation, able to slowly coax information, like how the waves wear away the rocks that they slam against.

In battle, Taura mainly fights in the middle ground, since she can fight physically by using the many disciplines of martial arts that she's learnt, but she also uses her control over water to help the fight. Her moves are always fluid, making her incredibly flexible and acrobatic.

[B]Bio:[/B] Taura grew up in a tiny village on the coast, always constantly beside the water. She was an only child, and her parents were poor, being farmers, but since they were by the sea, the salt made their land infertile. One day, at the age of 8, she was sitting on a rock by the sea, her favourite spot to think when her parents came along, they looked incredibly sad. Taura stood and went to greet them when she saw a few men following them too.

She asked what was happening and her parents told her they were selling her because they needed the money. The girl was cuffed quickly and held tightly by two men. The man that was dressed poshly handed a pouch of coins to her parents and the four went away, her parents watched sadly.

Taura was brought up by the man, Mr. Atkinson. He told her the truth that he had been scrying for someone with powers, and he had found her. Instead of making her into a slave as she and her parents had thought, he taught her how to use her powers over water. Mr. Atkinson also taught her several disciplines of martial arts. She was provided school lessons at the same time and continued them until she was 18. As the time continued, her power over water became great, able to manipulate water in a large variety of ways with a large amount of power and force behind it, though her only problem was she wasn't able conjure water from no where, having to use sources around her.

When Taura was 20, Mr. Atkinson went on a trip without her, and a few days after he left, it was reported that he had been killed by an evil woman. He had been more of a father to her than her own had, she swore that she'd get revenge, no matter what the cost. She decided to travel into the large city of Alsoto to see if she could get any information there before she started her hunt.

[B]Skills/abilities:[/B] Taura's speciality is Water Manipulation, she is able to do practically anything with water except create it out of no where. If no water is present, she can even use her saliva and build on it until it's something deadly. She can manipulate it to however she wishes, and if she has a large source of water nearby, her attacks will be that much stronger. Often she creates weapons out of water and uses them. She's an excellent swimmer and she's learnt to hold her breath for long amounts of time, allowing her to stay under the surface for much longer than normal people.

Her other speciality is in martial arts, knowing several discinplines and she's able to execute good combos to inflict a large amount of damage upon her opponents, her heavy boots help her when doing this since they cause more pain.[/COLOR]

[Raphael]

OOC: I'm sorry if it's a bit long....:animeshy: (edit: I've made some change on Ralph's bio and appearance......... :animeknow a little information here........Ralph lived on the village from age 0-5, he lived on the merchant's mansion from age 5-21 and then he was casted out from the merchant's mansion and live his 21-32 on the destroyed village.....)

[CENTER][B]Name:[/B] Ralph Stanley (Stanley is Ralph's real family last name)

[B]Age:[/B] 32

[B]Gender:[/B] Male

[B]Appearance:[/B] With blonde mid straight hair and red eyes, Ralph could look handsome and frightening at the same time. He wear a purple leather jacket with long arm and high conscript (imagine Raphael's conscript on SC3), black cloth (inside his jacket), purple leather long-gloves, purple pants, red belt and black leather boots.

[B]Personality:[/B] Ralph could be a little selfish at a time but when he's commited to something, he'll do it no matter what. He's a calm person and valued grace highly when he's fighting (only when he's fighting). He's quite agile but sometimes his habit of fighting gracefully slowed him down, which he also realized and tried to fight all out when he's at a dangerous situation.

[B]Bio:[/B]
Ralph was born on a small village southeast of the destroyed village. At his young age, his abillity and intellegent caught the eyes of a wealthy merchant from Alosto who was staying for three days at Ralph's house after being found unconsiouss by Ralph's father, it seemed that the merchant was robbed by bandits and left unconsiouss by them. Ralph get pretty close with the merchant as Ralph's willingness to learn about the world make him always ask and listen stories about the world from the merchant.

Several years later Ralph's parents died, the little Ralph was then taken by the merchant after hearing that the skillful boy's parent has died. The merchant has no child eventhough he's married. The merchant seemed to put big hope on Ralph, Ralph learned much about the world and fighting technique, which no one around him could beat him on both. Ralph also learned the way of the upperclassmen and find it suit him well.

But, along with his rise in rank, Ralph attitude changed. He's now a man who look down on others if they aren't on the same rank as he is. His attitude change made the merchant sad. "He wasn't supposed to be like this..." so said the merchant on his deep sadness.

One day, when he's walking down a street, Ralph saw a girl who is about the same age as he is. The fact that she's only a shoe-seller seemed to vanished in Ralph's eye because of her beauty. The girl smiled at him and asked whether he would buy any of her shoes. Ralph's high selfregard made him shout "Who do you think you're talking to? You lowlife scumbag!"

He didn't intend to said that horrible thing which made him the target of many's eyes. Ralph felt a little guilt but he continued his walk pretending that nothing has happened. A few days has passed after that incident and yet his feeling never stop aching. He felt that he had to find the girl and apologize to her. He couldn't understand his own feeling, although it's true that in his whole life he never looked down on people that badly, he felt that there's another reason to this feeling. Perhaps what he felt is love?

Without even answering to his mind's question of "How could I love a shoe-seller?", Ralph ran until he reached the street where he met the girl. He quickly tries to find the girl and finnally found her on a market nearby buying her daily needs. Ralph approach her, the girl noticed Ralph was coming and looked at his face, she looked a bit scared. Ralph stopped and after a while of silence, he apologize to the girl. The girl seemed to be surprised but then she smiled and bowed to Ralph while saying that she's the one that should apologize. Surprising even to himself, Ralph hugged the girl and confessed his deep love.

Ralph introduced the girl to his father (the merchant), his father felt a little surprised by the sudden change of Ralph who never even wanted to touch a person like her. Ralph's father approved their relationship hoping that the girl could somehow change Ralph's heart, cause he sees honesty and kindness on the girl. Ralph's father hope come into reality somehow. Ralph's attitude toward poor people changed bit by bit. He become a true gentlemen which kindness not only reached the high-class ones.

But, it seemed that Ralph's father's hope had to be paid with his own life. A few months after Ralph's change, his father died. Ralph sadness was added by his own mother who rejected his place on the family after his father's death. The other nobility also follow his mother action considering his background and lover. Ralph was left alone with no one besides him other than the girl.

Ralph moved to the destroyed village (on this day, the village has yet to be destroyed) and become a merchant along with the girl. He made many friends and enter a school of magic to protect himself on his journey as a merchant. He lived year to year on the village and eventually marry the girl. He's blessed with three children and live happily with them, far happier than what he had felt on his life before.

Until one fatefull day, when he's coming home from another journey. He noticed smokes from his village direction. He ran as fast as he can to his village but it was all too late. He sees a being he only read on books burned his house to ruins. He rushed down, trying to stop the manace.

One of his friend saw him running down toward the village, he chases and stopped Ralph. Ralph asked him wheter his wife and kids is save, his friend silenced for a minute and said "I remember your wife helped a kid escape from a burning house.....the kid is save......but your wife.....", his friend looked down. Ralph seemed to understand what has happened and shocked by it. He tried to concentrate and asked "How about the kids?", his friend said "I....I'm sorry I couldn't.....". Ralph's shock was doubled, he never imagine that on his life, he had to lose everyone he love the most all so sudden. Ralph looked down and calmly said "Let's get to a safe place first.....", his friend nodded and both of them run toward Alosto, the nearest place they could reach from their location. Ralph seemed to be calm, but his friend knows that deep in his heart, pain, anger and sorrow are mixing altogether. The only thing he didn't know that the conjunction causes a word which has become Ralph's cause to stay alive........vengeance.

[I]He swore vengeance to the so-called god Lisiae no matter what![/I]

[B]Skills/abilities:[/B] Ralph is an expert of rapier, he also is able to handle other sword-typed weapon. He could also use magic which is not as strong as a real magician, specialized on lightning type magics. His other abilities is business.[/CENTER]

[Starwind]

[B]Name:[/B] Darren Tollack

[B]Age:[/B] 34

[B]Gender:[/B] Male

[B]Appearance:[/B] [URL=http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c384/GeneOutlaw/ryoji.jpg]Darren[/URL]. He stands about 5'10 and weights in at about 175 lbs. He wears heavier clothes then those seen in the pic. Generally he wears his cloak or his trench coat. The cloak is brown with a single pin to hold in fastend around his neck that has the image of the sun on it. His trench coat is black and has no collar to it. Both of which are heavily tatterd. Underneath his heavier clothes he wears a light pair of pants and has most of his body bandaged (about from his pelvis to the base of his neck). His forearms and hands are also wrapped. He carries a katana at his hip in a silver scabbard. The hilt is a bright red and the guard is a solid black in a shape similar to that of a swastica. The blade like the guard is a solid black as well and measures a full 2 and a half feet. WIth the hilt it totals just over 3 and a quarter feet long.

[B]Personality: [/B] Quiet and prefers to mind his own business. He places his own needs before those of others. Stand offish and avoids getting swept up in someonelse's conflict. He deals in it for himself, but if someone's goal would some how help his own then he wouldn't have too much trouble turning to aid them.

[B]Bio:[/B] Born into a poor family, his parents dies while he was still very young from sickness. Following that he was sold into a caravan as a slave for trade. He moved around with the caravan from the ages of 2 to 8. When he was eight the caravan was attacked by bandits. The crew and all the slaves they could find were slaughterd and all the cargo, no matter how insignifigant it seemed, was taken by the bandits. Darren found sactuary by hiding under the body of one of his fellow slaves, who had already been butcherd. He laid in that spot for days, to afraid that if he moved they would see him and kill him.

When he left that hellish waste, the body he had concealed himself with was nearly picked clean by the buzzards. He wonderd aimlessly through the surrounding forest and thicket. He had no where to go except into another slave caravan. One day he wonderd into a cave in the far west. While taking refuge in the cave he noticed the fine smell of smoke. At the back of the cave sat a strong, brooding looking man with a long pipe in his hand and a sword propped next to him.

At first Darren felt like crying at this sight, he was terrofied of the man, even though the man had not even spoken yet. The man's eyes finally fixed on his through the dark and the man spoke "What's your problem kid."

Darren was frozen for a bit and said nothing. The man spoke again "Why don't you sit down, boy. You look pretty tired."

Darren didn't move and simply stared at the man all night long, even while the man slept propped on the cave wall. When the man rose to leave in the morning Darren followed him. He wasn't sure why, but Darren didn't want to see the man go.

He followed his like a lost dog for a month before he next spoke to the man. The man had decided that if he was going to follow him that he would be of some use. Darren had returned to being someones servant, he did whatever the man told him to do, and he didn't even know his name yet. Every time he spoke to the man he couldn't help but stare at the sword the man kept over his shoulder. It had been two months since he had taken on as his servant when the man first acknowledged this. He said "Do like my sword, boya."

Darren nodded lightly and the man returned with a smile "What if I said I'd give it to you? Would you be willing to follow me for the next 15 years?"

Darren stared at the man, unsure of how to act, but his body seemed to do that for him. He suddenly satrted to nod, without even meaning to, he just did. The next several years he spent under this mans wing as his "apprentice", as he put it. The only name the man ever gave himself was Sei Fu.

After the long 15 years with him, Sei Fu was true to his word. He gave Darren the sword he carried over his shoulder. One day Darren woke up and he was gone and the sword was sitting on his lap. Darren took on a new goal after losing him, finding him again. He wouldn't just allow it to end with him just leaving. In all the years they were together Darren had never bested him, and Sei Fu had never let him complete his training to become a master.

He has spent the last 9 years as a vagabond searching for him, hoping to find and defeat him one day. He took on the task of finding him, but now has a new plan. With the appearance of this demon witch, Lisiae, he has decided to search her out instead. He now believes to find her, he might find Sei Fu. If he can destroy her, then maybe he'll be able to beat Sei Fu the next time they meet.

[B]Skill/Abilities: [/B] He is a skilled swordsman, but not quite a master yet. He's fast, so fast that his movements are almost invicible to the untrained eye. He is most skilled with the technique known as the Flash Step. It's a burst sprint technique that allows for virtually undetectable movements, where one can't be seen or even heard. Though this technique is only good up to 15 yards at a time. But, despite the energy it takes, he is able to use this technique quite a numerous amount of time before wearing himself out.

[GuyYouMetOnline]

Pretty good so far, everyone. Those of you who have recieved PMs, please make the changes I described. Sakura, you might want to tone down the powers a bit (no creating creatures out of water).

And now, here's my sign-up:


Name: Lisiae

Age: Unknown

Gender: Female

Appearance: Lisiae's form is that of an incredably beautiful human woman. Her body is absolutely perfect, putting even the most beautiful of women to shame. There is, however, something unmistakably nonhuman about her. Nobody can put a finger on what it is, but there's definitely something.

Personality: Nothing is known about Lisiae, though there are some things that can be inferred from her actions. She is clearly quite fond of destruction, and doesn't seem to care how many people she kills. She doesn't make much of an efort to kill everybody. If she sees you, she'll probably kill you, but she doesn't try to find and kill everyone. She appears to be completely without mercy.

Bio: Again, nothing is known. There are, of course, many theories regarding Lisiae's origin and motives. The most popular theory is that she is a demon, but that is far from the only theory. Some believe her to be a being born at the time of Creation who has slept for ages, awakening now. others believe her to be a former servant of the gods, destroying that which her former masters treasured. Others believe that she is a goddess herself, imposing her will upon her creation. And there are many other theories. But despite all the theories, nobody actually knows anything.

Skills/abilities: Lisiae has been seen to have a wide variety of abilities, though whether or not she's shown the full extent of her power is unknown. She has used many forms of magic, and has displayed mastery over every element. Some say she is skilled with illusions. Some believe she has various psychic powers, though it is not known if this is true.

Lisiae has displayed unmatched power in every area. She has easily overpowered anyone who has chalenged her. Her indurance apeares unlimited; she never seems to tire. Physically, she is unmatched in speed and strength. When she chooses to fight with a weapon, she pulls her weapon of choice seemingly from nowhere. Sometimes she uses a sword, other times a spear, other times a staf, and sometimes another weapon. She is extremely skilled with all the weapons she as been seen using.



Okay, there we go. I know I didn't tell you much, but did you really expect me to reveal everything before the RPG has even started?

I'll give people a few more days to sign up before I start the RPG. Count on the RPG starting by this weekend.

As always, PM me with any questions.

[Zhara]

[COLOR=Indigo][FONT=Garamond][B]Name:[/B] Roslyn Carroll

[B]Age:[/B] 21

[B]Gender:[/B] Female

[B]Appearance: [/B] [URL=http://www.alycedesigns.com/2006s/images/dresses/87649/img0large.jpg]Dress One[/URL] [URL=http://www.alycedesigns.com/2006s/images/dresses/87622/img1.jpg]Dress Two[/URL] [URL=http://www.alycedesigns.com/2006s/images/dresses/8802/img0large.jpg]Dress Three[/URL] Pale skinned and dark haired, her blue eyes entrance and hypnotize. It's because of a pendant she wears around her neck; a ruby enchanted to destroy down the mental defenses of her victim. She's about average height and has an hourglass build with a bit of muscle definition on her arms and stomach.

[B]Personality:[/B] Self centered and arrogant, Roslyn rarely thinks of others. People are only useful to her when they serve her purposes, but that's only because she never had a proper childhood or any real friends. Never has she felt love, and she could easily be considered materialistic and sneaky. On the bright side, she rarely feels fearful of anything, and is very confidant in her own abilities.

[B]Bio: [/B] Once the main attractions for The Broken Talisman tavern, she was jailed after being caught attempting to assassinate a nobleman enjoying her dancing. It was a messy affair, ending with her under house arrest in her patron's manor. Not too bad of a punishment, unless you count the fact that her execution was scheduled for two days later. During her last few moments of life, she escapes through the basement and into the city proper. It was difficult to avoid the guards, but through guile and sheer luck she made it out alive.

Once away from the city, she assesses the damage. First and foremost, she could never work in Badger Duchy again, and would quite possibly have to find a new profession. Secondly, she's a pampered city girl without a clue as to how to function in the real world. She can't even read a map.

Dropping her pack on the ground, she stands tall and smiles at the now-setting moon. "I will defeat Lisiae! Then they'll have to let me live, and drop all the charges!" It wasn't exactly well thought out, but the oath was uttered and the little honor she had would hold her to her word.

[B]Skills/abilities:[/B] Besides being a dancing girl, and therefore agile and quick, she was taught the ways of stealth and silent assassination. She's an excellent actress, able to fool most of the nobles she was hired to kill without any trouble. But she has yet to test herself against a real person who has had to work for their money and has overcome difficulties in their lives.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[SIZE=1]Name: Catherine Gray

Age: 29

Gender: Female

Appearance: Catherine stands at about 5' 7" and has rough, dark brown hair that falls to around shoulder height. Her natural eye colour is a dim green, though one of her first failed curses turned her left eye to a foggy, lifeless grey. She wears a sleeveless top of a similiar shade, and loose-fitting black trousers, 'framed' with torn rags of a faded purple material. Her arms are wrapped in bandages up to just above the elbow, with an odd black mark just about visible on the right shoulder.

Personality: Bitter in both thought and expression, there rarely seems to be any motivation behind her bad manner other than a general dislike for all things great and small. She distances herself from all around her, and her usual reaction to somebody 'reaching out' is to threaten the with a potent curse. Supposedly, her behaviour became as it is because of an ill-prepared spell, though Catherine has a tendency to hospitalise those who mention this in her presence.

Bio: [will edit at home]

Skills/abilities: Catherine is relatively proficient in a number of curses and hex spells, being probably the only thing that she takes any pleasure from. Still, she has a long way to go before she could be considered a master, as the odd spell manages to blight her instead of the intended target.
To enhance her curses, and to cancel the effects of the ocassional 'backfire' spell, Catherine has also studied the art of herblore, and can mix up an impressive array of toxins and remedies, so long as she can get her hands on the right materials.[/SIZE]

[B]Name:[/B] Celia

[B]Age:[/B] 23

[B]Gender:[/B] Female

[B]Appearance:[/B] [URL=http://www.nnm.ru/imagez/gallery/other/anime_wallpapers-1120639877_i_9375_full.jpg]{CLICK}[/URL]

[B]Personality:[/B] Celia is headstrong and prides herself in her work. She never confesses her doubt in any situtaion, its part of her risky disposition. It also takes alot to make Celia made but, if she's under pressure for a deadline or what not then she may snap at anytime. Though in general Celia is very easy to get along with a try, try agian attitude.

[B]Bio:[/B] Celia?s main reason for trying to fight against Lisiae is because it?s a risk. Celia is big on taking risks in fact her entire life has been a risk. When she was born her mother was killed in child birth and then he father committed suicide because he couldn?t live on without he beloved wife.
Left alone in the world Celia was taken to her only living relative that would take her in, her aunt on her father's side. Her aunt wasn't a fan of her brother's marriage though she never told Celia about that. Celia was a reader and loved to learn about plants. She wanted to future her knowledge of herbs and plants so she went to the local apothecary and asked for an apprenticeship.
She was granted her request and went to tell her aunt the news. Celia expected the same warmth that she had always received but, instead got hatred and cold words. That's when her life of taking risks began. Her aunt threatened to lock her up saying that Celia belonged to her and she was going to decide her fate. Under lock in key in her room, Celia toke risk number one: Disobey her aunt by running away and becoming an apprentice to the local apothecary.
Which she did in the dead of the night, after she heard her aunt fall asleep she worked on breaking the lock on her door. Once that was done, Celia ran towards the village as the dawn was rapidly approaching. Risk Two: Keep herself hidden long enough from her aunt, who was only a few miles away, for her to learn everything she needed to know about being an apothecary.
Risk Three: Leave the only place she had ever known and try and find a new place to live and become that village?s apothecary. She heard about a city not to far from the village she grew p in and traveled there. The city was called Alsoto and she figured even if they already had an apothecary then the city might just be big enough for two apothecaries. Or more.
Celia has taken many more risks in her life but, the most recent is her choice to fight against Lisiae.

[B]Skills/abilities:[/B] Celia is very skilled in the arts of mixing herbs as it is her perfecsion, or job. Due to her upbringings she has learned to be persuasive and uses that skill to get people o by her potions and elixirs.
When forced to fight, Celia rather fight from afar and attack indirectly, with needles dipped in homemade poisons or bombs. Her poisons vary from quick acting deadly

My apologies, but I don't know when I'll be able to do this RPG. I've just been hit with a truckload of schoolwork, plus I just started a new job. I don't think I'll have much free time over the next couple weeks. If I'm lucky, I'll have enough time to post in RPGs every few days, but I certainly won't have enough time to run my own RPG.

Now, I know you all want to participate, so if I do find time to do this RPG, I most certainly will. I don't think that'll happen, but I'll try. If nothing else, I've got spring break in a couple weeks, and I should have plenty of time then (unless my parents decide that we're all going on vacation, which is quite likely).

Again, I apologize.

Name: Sai

Age: 35


Gender: Male

Appearance: [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v714/Dregen/demian.jpg"]Sai[/url]

Personality:
Sai is a laid back person with one hell of a sense of humor. He can always be found playing jokes on people and chillin. The only time he gets serious is when he is training. He dose occasionally enjoy a good fight. His mind is of a calculating nature. With in minutes he?s usually able to devise a plan on beating an opponent. He thinks of life as a chess board trying to have fun while staying 5 steps ahead of everyone else.

Bio:
Sai was born in the small town of Latos his family held the majority of wealth in town. Although his family was rich Sai was brought up like one of the servants he could do any job that they could do at by the age of 12. When Sai would complain about his chores his father would tell him how he had spent years working, he wanted Sai to respect men for the hard work they did. Needless to say that worked for a good year and then all hell broke loose. Sai started passing his chores off to the servants, it seemed so easy to persuade them. He figured he could do what ever he wanted. It started off small with the chores then came vandalizing, bullying, manipulating, then he started skipping school this was it. His parents arranged for him to be sent to the Hojo Temple. By making a rather a large donation he placed into the school. Regularly they wouldn?t accept a student this old but thanks to a rather large donation on his father?s behalf Sai was being shipped out the next day. They?d had enough; Sai awoke the next day to a beautiful carriage pulling up in front of his house. He watched as an old man with robes emerged greeted by Sai?s father. Sai wondered what was going on as he made his way down to the sitting room. He reached the room just in time to see his father handing the man a bag of gold coins. ?Is this him? the man and robes said while looking Sai up and down. ?Yes this is my son? said Sai?s father. The man motioned his hand and a young man picked Sai up and headed toward the carriage outside. Sai struggled to get free from the man?s grip but to no avail he could not. As him in the young man sat in the cabin the older gentlemen got in and they were off. While journeying the elder man told Sai of the temple and that he would be able to return in 10 years at the age of 22.

The temple took some time getting used to Sai was used to getting his way. I t was much harder to get people to do what he wanted. For the next year he tried to escape but always managed to get caught. Every time he tried one of his schemes he ended up having to do the schools laundry. After a year Sai realized he might as well give up trying to escape and try to just finish his sentence. In time he began to like being at the temple he was no longer in the spotlight he was just like all the other kids. He enjoyed not being the center of attention. The young man that had come to Sai?s house with the elder was appointed his master. Sai thought he was an asshole but for some reason liked him. He wasn?t as stuffy as the rest of the masters at the school. At night Sai would sneak out and train the techniques that he had learned earlier that day. After five years of hard training Sai was considered the best fighter in his class. His master realized this and began teaching him Tai Chi a form of martial arts that concentrated on balance rather then strength. For Sai seemed to only use his power to when he had no real balance in his technique. When the time had finally come for Sai to leave he decided to stay on as a teacher for the next ten years while he mastered his technique. In less then 9 years Sai had achieved the title of master wining every major competition in the area along with beating his master.

It was about 2 months before it was time for Sai to head home He was now he was turning 32 in 4 months. He had been keeping in touch with his parents and his younger brother Kokai through mail. They wrote him at least once a month. Sai realized he hadn?t received a letter in 2 months. He wrote it off as nothing, he thought back to the times letters had been late before. This time it was different the letters had never been this late. He decided to leave early. He thanked his master and the rest of the temple. He went to the high masters and asked could he leave early, they agreed to let him leave. With that he was off to the home that he had once known. It took him 5 days traveling by foot to reach his home. What awaited him at the town gates was not the welcome he?d prayed to see, yet it was a sign of what was to become. The town was ripped asunder as it was as if the gods themselves took a giant claw and ran it along the town. As he ran trough the town he took in stragglers hiding in torn apart houses. Suddenly Sai?s face was struck with horror at the site of his once beautiful home. There were no flowers and beautiful animals grazing in the fields there was only blood. He ran in to the house to find one of the servants hiding in a corner. ?Wh who who are you?.? The old woman said. ?I am Sai I live here, where are the people that own this home.? Said Sai ?Oh thank the heavens child is it you is it really you, you?ve grown.? She told Sai that his parents had been killed by a woman that had suddenly appeared in the village. She told him his brother had set off after burying their parents to kill the woman. He was headed to Alsoto

Skills/abilities:[font="]Sai has the ability to control the air around him he can use it to enhance attacks. Sai has trained in a wide variety of martial arts most noticeably is Tai Chi. Due to this he has created his own style that is based on his manipulation of the wind. He has also studied the dead languages of the ancients. (Thought I would throw that in there.) [/font]
