  Jonah
Posted by: Kila - 09-17-2017, 06:47 PM - Forum: Character Profiles - Replies (1)

[Image: MQvJ2k8.png]
Character page soon to come!

Character's Name:
Jonah

Age:
75

Gender:
Male

Species:
Mermaid (Tropical)

Abilities:
The neurotoxin secreted by Jonah's skin renders those who wish him harm unable to complete their task. It lulls them into trusting Jonah completely, and without question. This is something Jonah isn't too fond of, so he prefers to avoid physical contact.

Jonah is also good with healing magic, which he utilizes by holding his hands above an injury and channeling the magic down to the wound, as he's averse to the effects of his neurotoxin.

Personality:
Jonah is a sweet boy. With a kind, caring heart. He's incredibly empathetic, and sympathizes with those around him. Perhaps a little too well, in some cases. Seeing others in pain is enough to make him well up with tears as well. He can be a bit of a crybaby, over other people. He puts the well-being of others over himself, and strives to be the best healer he can be.

Though he wishes to be a healer and a physician, Jonah can't stomach physical contact, be it someone touching him or the other way around. He's a merman who values his personal space, largely because of his neurotoxin. When touched, he freezes and loses his composure, often panicking and fleeing to collect himself.

A naturally curious boy, Jonah overcomes his shy nature for the sake of learning. He's very curious about humans, though he's very aware of their readiness to kill mermaids for the rumor of their immortality granting flesh. He uses his camouflage to hide in kelp forests, observing boats and scouring shipwrecks for anything he can use or return to the surface.

  Akeme
Posted by: KokoPuffs - 09-13-2017, 07:00 PM - Forum: Character Profiles - Replies (1)

[Image: jAtEWig.png]

Character's Name:

Akeme 

Nicknames: 

n/a

Age:

51

Gender:

Female

Species:

Kelahati-Deer

Abilities:

Shape Shifting: Like any Kelahati, Akeme has the natural ability to be able to shift between a bipedal(human) form and one of a small deer.

Wild Magic: A gift that many Kelahati probably have, she is able to communicate with the wildlife around her; though she has more of an affinity with deer than any other species in the world. Along with this reading the land is quite something she is well versed in as well. Knowing where to grow the best and most valuable crops depending on the soil and the like. She even grows food for herself as well, as most of her diet consists of plants; like fruits and vegetables. 

Personality:

Akeme has a very calm and collected type of personality, the kind of woman someone could sit with and talk with for hours. Her demeanor is soft, gentle, caring; hands that portray such an innocent trust when they touch another being. Her voice is soft, always ready to speak kindly and nicely towards others; even if they themselves are not so. She doesn't believe being rude to others who are so is the right thing to do, but to treat them as kindly as she herself would enjoy being treated. Someone could be yelling at her and she'd still have the most kindness smile upon her face. No one needs to be treated horribly, even if they are the ones being rude themselves.

The young woman is very modest in her ways, always making sure to be covered up as to not show much skin; which is surly a personal preference to herself. She is very nervous about others seeing her naked, and believes it is something left for the love of her life; whoever that may end up being. 

History: 

Akeme was abandoned by her parents when she was just a small infant, leaving the child on the doorsteps of a shrine. It could have been assumed they could not care for their own child, or maybe even they were the product of an affair; and their parent ashamed of what that had come from such a thing. The cartaker of the shrine had heard the small cries from the infant and went to go investigate, only to find the small child bundled up upon the very steps. Though confused, he had taken the baby in and from then on raised her. She had grown up knowing the kindness and loving side of the human race, rather than the hatred many of them had for other beings that were not human. Even for the ones that had human forms.

Her adoptive father was the kindness man she'd ever had the pleasure of being around, teaching her the ways of the world and everything she needed to know. He was a much older man when she was taken in by him, though that did not keep him from doing well by the small child. Akeme was taught to enjoy the world around here, for the good or bad. To take it with a grain of salt here and there but to never hold any ill-will towards other; especially based upon their species. Some act the way they are just based upon such a thing, some being neural, some being evil, and many being good. 

As the years passed by and she eventually became a young adult by Kelahati standards, her elderly father started to show signs of sickness. There wasn't really much she could do for him and eventually, months later, he succumbed to what had taken over his health an died. After a while of mourning, she packed up her things and left the area to go out on he own, making a little living for herself in a small house. She grows herbs and things to sell, though not from her home. Akeme enjoys the peace of nature, so she usually travels to local villages or cities to sell her things.

  Vega
Posted by: Kila - 09-13-2017, 05:44 PM - Forum: Character Profiles - Replies (1)

[Image: daep59f.png]
Character page coming soon!


Character's Name:
Vega

Age:
45

Gender:
Female

Species:
Agrothron Lion

Abilities:
Divination - Vega can divine future events from many different sources. Dreams, casting bones into fire, reading tea leaves--she's well versed in many of these arts. Her personal favorite method, however, is in reading the stars and heavenly bodies.

Clairvoyance - Occasionally she'll receive visions of the future. Often these visions are vague, and many are only possible outcomes. It's up to her to determine the meaning of these visions.

Strength - Vega is very large for a lion. Her large size has given her greater strength than most in her pride, though her endurance is lower in comparison.

Healing - While not magic in nature, Vega has knowledge of the local medicinal plants, which she uses to create salves and remedies for most minor ailments. More serious injuries will require proper healing magics, but she can mend illnesses and most broken limbs.

Personality:
Vega is a bit of an enigma. Her mannerisms are peculiar to many, and she's often in her own world, contemplating all the universe's knowledge given to her in visions. Much of what she says makes little sense to others, and getting her to say anything to the point can be an ordeal. Oftentimes she talks to herself, muttering about Mercury being in retrograde or how this year's berry crop is dismal.

The meanings of her divination take the forefront of her mind, and her thoughts are racing at a mile a minute. As such, she often stumbles around in a daze. Running into rocks isn't uncommon for Vega, or tripping over uneven ground, or even walking into a tree is not uncommon for her. Her head is in the clouds. While seen as flighty and strange by others, none can deny that Vega is very good at what she does.

When not being off i her own world or speaking in riddles, Vega is a very gentle soul. She's a good listener, and is a very amiable individual. She has a great fondness for cubs, and lets them climb all over her. Even still, she prefers playing the part of the quiet introvert.

History:

An odd cub from the beginning, Vega was sickly and weak, her fur pale. She was placed under the new moon sky, where her family prayed for her survival. Cracking marks appeared on her pelt, rippling with starlight. From then on, Vega was drawn to the stars. Every night she could be found outside, staring up at the sky.

Her abilities manifested young, and she was trained by the pride's previous shaman, where she learned how to properly read the signs around her. The more she learned, the stranger Vega became.

The evening sky was beginning to turn shades of pinks and purples as the sun, a vivid orange, began to dip towards the horizon. There was a pleasant breeze blowing through the garden, pushing the clouds overhead across the sky, occasionally gusting. It was a quiet, peaceful place. Exotic flowers and trees lined the shore of the pond, with water as blue as the sky during the day. Four bridges connected the shores to the island within, perfectly centered with a blooming magnolia tree. The trees and bushes rustled, petals were blown off flowers, falling into the water while others landed in the hair of the angel sitting on an island in the middle.

She sat with her legs crossed, her hands folded in her lap as the breeze whipped her long pigtails around. Her eyes were closed in meditation, her face serene.

Times had been stressful recently. The two oracle deaths rattled the people. Between tending to Haliea's temple and the angels that came en mass, and dealing with the aftermath of the demon lords' meeting at the temple of Vaerath--where their oracle had reappeared--it had been a very, very busy past few weeks. Her nightly meditation became all the more important. It was a time where she could reflect and seek guidance from the gods. And in times like these, she needed all the prayers she could offer--though Vaerath had seemed displeased by this. Not to mention the fact that she'd failed to heed the god's calling for the oracle, no thanks to her misunderstanding with Feather.

Aolani chewed her lip as she thought, growing more concerned. Breathe, she reminded herself. Breathe.

She exhaled, and tensed muscles relaxed.

Peace and quiet. Just what she needed.

  Raven Hollyhazel
Posted by: Kila - 09-12-2017, 11:56 PM - Forum: Character Profiles - Replies (1)

[Image: puVv7Pa.png]
Character page coming soon!

Character's Name:
Raven Hollyhazel

Nicknames:
Ven, Vena, Veenie, Ravvie

Age:
50

Gender:
Female

Species:
Light Angel, with a smidge of Kelahati so far back no one quite remembers what animal the Kelahati was.
Her answer changes all the time.

Abilities:
Raven is a gifted light mage (self proclaimed), though truth be told, she only uses her magic to provide the best light for her indoor gardens, which she tends to with tender love and care.

Her studies have also driven her to learn nature magic, to get in touch with her kelahati heritage (however much is left). She has a very, very green thumb because of this, and her entire house is filled with all manner of greenery. Vines grow on the walls, shoots and flowers spring up in her steps--it can be quite bothersome, but Raven doesn't mind.

Raven's pride and joy, however, would have to be her potions, tonics, and brews. She's a witch by trade, and can make a potion for every occasion. Got a cold you can't get rid of? She can help! Want to make someone sneeze for six years straight? She'll call you a weirdo, but she can do it! Got an icky rash? Baldness? Lack of self esteem? Raven can do it all! So she claims. The variety of potions she can make is stunning, but the time it takes, the complexity, and the rarity of ingredients all determines the price.

Can she fly with a broomstick? No, silly, that'd be weird (but she totally could) because she has wings.

Personality:
Raven is a bright, vibrant young woman. She's bubbly, friendly, and has a lot to say when you get her going. Always with a kind word to say, Raven enjoys lifting the spirits of others. Had a bad day? She'll cheer you up if she can. She can often come across as fake because she's always smiling and happy--though she is genuinely a happy person. Surrounded by plants and her work, there's a lot to be happy about!

Much of her time is spent alone on the road in her house--which is a very large wagon pulled by two cows named So and Lu. Even in the silence of her home, Raven talks to her plants and her cows. She often states that she's so chatty because of the very nature of her job.

A bit silly and dramatic, Raven has a love for all things flashy and ostentatious. She enjoys being dramatic in a showmanship way, entertaining her customers with bells and whistles. After all, if you're going to be a witch, why not sell the part? Also a bit of a girly girl, she enjoys the finer things in life. Clothes, jewelry, food--she loves it all. Fancy tea parties? She is there in her best dress with homemade tea.

History:
Raven was born and raised to an angel who served as a midwife. She was taught at a young age that the natural world is full of wonder, and was taught about magic and healing herbs from a young age. She began pursuing more knowledge about plants, having a special fondness for them. Her studies took her on the road, where she learned to be self sufficient?? and more adept at using her magic.

  Wrath
Posted by: Achera - 09-12-2017, 11:47 PM - Forum: Character Profiles - Replies (1)

[Image: 2632218_bbhjwwngsujykej_by_accenlia-dbm9thw.png]

Character’s Name: Wrath
Nicknames: His name is a nickname, but no one knows his true name.
Gender: Male
Age: Centuries have past, and here he still remains(Immortal)
Species: Tarsian (Ka’lari)

Appearance:

[Image: 2632213_0yennywapl658sk_by_accenlia-dbm9ti9.png]

Wrath stands at around 7’3 from the top of his head. His skin is overall tan with a reddish, yellow complexion as an undertone. His hair is a mahogany red that is cut into thick, long layers. The longest pieces reach past his butt and stop around his upper thigh. He prefers to wear it down with a blackish red headband to pull his hair out of his face. When he’s in the middle of a hunt, he prefers to tie it back in a loose, lower ponytail. Wrath sports a series of black tattoos that are similar to tiger strips on the left side of his body. They start around his neck area and continue down his side. Under his left eye, there is a hallowed stripe tattoo as well. The sclera of his eyes are black while his irises are a deep red. It is said that when he is enraged or about to partake in a hunt, his irises turn bright red. He has a small beard, no more than a few centimeters, that lines the edges of his jaw that is the same color as his hair.

His clothes tend to be tight and fitted on the top while baggy for his pants. It helps so he is not limited in movement when it comes to fighting and hunting. His preferred outfit is a black, collared piece that is like half of a top. It goes around his arms, but stops just above his pecks. There are two white bands that each go on one side of his body, respectively. On the front, there are top button-like clasps that each have a chain to ‘tie’ the two pieces together. On each of his arms, are two long black sleeves; each with a bandana-like wrap at the top that is similar in color to his headband. Around his wrists, are a silver bangle each. His pants are an off white that are rather baggy. On the top is a black wrapping, similar to the collar-like shirt with a button and chain on the front as well. The pants have a circular, grey design that wraps behind him. At the bottom, the pants are cuffed with a few silver candles around his ankles, followed by a black foot sleeve that shapes into a triangle around his section toe. Most of the time, he prefers to be barefoot. Around his waist is another wrap that is similar to his other ones that loops around his body twice; one in one direction and the other in the opposite to create a small v-shape on the front. The ends are loose on the sides and move with his body. 

Personality:
There is a reason he is called Wrath. Throughout the years, his name had been replaced with the nickname everyone soon came to know him for the embodiment of the dead sin of wrath. His temper is uncontrollable and his vengeance knows no bounds. Little is known as to why this has caused such anguish in his personality, but most of the time he prefers to stay in this state of mind. Typically, he is quiet as he knows that others have preserved him as such to grant him this name. Oftentimes, the thrill of the kill is enough to drive him to keep on hunting. However, true to the torsion nature he knows when enough is enough. He only goes for those that disrupt the balance though if the kill is not enough, he will continue on to regular animals until his thirst is quenched.

Some have classified him as the “strong, silent” type. He prefers to not communicate with others if he doesn’t have to. Sometimes, just giving small scuffs or growls is enough to get his message across. Other times, it’s in the smallest of his facial movements. Due to his rather large stature, most tend to stay away; which is perfectly fine by him.

Abilities:
True to tarsians, he sports the same abilities as those in his clan. The Ka’lari are somewhat resistant to magic, like he is. Similarly, he is able to absorb magic itself, allowing him to turn it back against the original castor and amplify its original power. To add to the mix, he is able to mimic the appearance of his prey to look, sound, and act exactly like them for a short amount of time. This translates even after his kill to allow for the tarsian to hunt quicker before disappearing once more.

  Xian
Posted by: Kila - 09-12-2017, 10:52 PM - Forum: Character Profiles - Replies (1)

[Image: 894066_WNx68P94qCmTN7y.png?1499892026]
Character page coming soon!

Character's Name:
Xian

Nicknames:
Xanny

Age:
18

Gender:
Male

Species:
Falonde Lion

Abilities:
Xian specializes in earth magic. While he's not very adept with it, he primarily uses it to sense vibrations in the ground to compensate for his near-sightedness. His paws are very sensitive because of this, and even a beetle crawling over them can startle him.

Xian's true gifts lie in the beads he wears in his mane. These beads explode when launched or broken, and they respond to his earth magic, and can be thrown relatively far.

Personality:
Young and unsure of himself, Xian has very little self confidence. He's clumsy, self conscious, and awkward. While not shy by any means, he finds it very hard to hold conversations with others because of his own insecurities. He wants friends, but doesn't quite know how to make them. Being genuine is hard, and Xian often puts up a front to try and "be cool", often acting smarter than he is or boasting about things he can't do. This often blows up in his face, spectacularly at that, and he's left with even more shattered confidence. It's a vicious cycle.

Xian is still coming into himself, and learning what it means to be his own person. He prefers what many consider "lioness' work", foraging, sitting with the cubs--that sort of thing. His near-sightedness and sensitivity to light make physical combat rather difficult, and many think him a coward for it.

History:
Xian has lived a very quiet life. He was often kept apart from the other cubs by his mother because of his clumsiness. Later it was learned that he was clumsy because he couldn't see well, which had his mother constantly doing things for him. Perhaps this is why he lacks confidence and social skills, or maybe not. Xian is simply trying to find his place in the pride.

  Rasmus
Posted by: KokoPuffs - 09-12-2017, 09:00 PM - Forum: Character Profiles - Replies (1)

[Image: bdQ7N8S.jpg]

Character's Name: 

Rasmus

Nicknames: (If Any)

N/A

Age:

25

Gender:

Male

Species:

Wolf- Enkratis Pack

Abilities:

Light Magic: Has the ability to create small orbs of light to guide his way or others through the dark. Sometimes he is even able to channel such a ability through his horns, creating a soft, but brilliant red hue. 

Healing Magic: Otherwise what he like to call "healing touch' he is able to heal wounds by either touching his snout against them or even giving them a gentle lick. This range from minor to ones that a bit worse. This ability is not one he is quite attuned to yet, so major injuries he is not able to do much about. 

Personality:

Rasmus is a very energetic and quite bubbly sort of wolf, has always been ever since the boy was nothing but a pup. Though he really isn't too far into adulthood, so he holds onto a lot of the same things as he had when he was still in adolescence. He's very playful, his rather energetic ways sometimes getting him into trouble with wolves older than he is; even if he only wishes to have fun with others. So often he plays with the pups of the pack, being very gentle as to not harm any of them during playing. Along side with this he's very sweet at that, always one to help others in their time of need. Whether that just be talking or even doing something for them, he's the wolf to go to!

History: 

Rasmus has lived a very simple life in the pack so far, very vibrant and loving towards most anyone; Which is certainly where he finds himself in trouble sometimes. He'd gotten into a small fight with an older wold before, which is what given him the large scars across his back. He never really learned from such a thing though, but he does know to stay away from grumpy, big wolves from then on.

  Diverna
Posted by: Aquarius - 09-11-2017, 05:57 PM - Forum: Character Profiles - Replies (1)

Character's Name: Diverna 

Nicknames: Daughter Of Evil

Age: 15

Gender: Female

Species: Chortari Wolf

Abilities:

Fire Generating/Manipulation: This was inherited from her father's genetic strand in which gives her the ability to form fire at will from many parts of her body, she is able to engulf her entire body with these enchanting purple flames or use them in other ways such as partially lighting up a specfic part of her body. Using this ability she can shoot rays of fire at her target or even rapid fire series of fire balls if she wanted to. She is also able to control the fire she makes preforming unique attacks as well.

Regeneration: An ability somewhat dealing with he father's yet primarily her mother's genes she is able to regenerate any part of her body, as long as her head isn't decapitated she can freely regenerate her cells to revert herself back to her primal state.

Poisonous Claws: a gift of pure evil, she has a default usage with her venomous claws, if made contact they could prove to be highly fatal if not treated that is. Her claws have poison in them due to her body itself as it injects posion to her claws.

Barrier Magic: The final skill combing both her mother and her father's skills is her use of defensive abilties, using this magic she can conjure up barriers, shields, illusions even within the barrier for a very good use of surprising the enemy. She has yet to perform the full extent of this magic and is currently still learning.

Appearance: Diverna has dark fur, with a short purple bang that hangs on the right side of her face fading a bit at the top. she as purple flames that soar on the ends of her tail due to her use of fire magic. she is fairly large yet thin as well having red antagonizing eyes peering into ones soul for eternity.

[Image: ppvqw2U.jpg]

Personality:

Blunt: In reality, Diverna can be a complete bitch at times, she doesn't really care for other people's feelings aside from her father's however everyone else can burn for all she care, she is very straight forward with others and doesn't really hold back what she has to say in her head especially if she doesn't like you, you'll know.

Seductive: She isn't intentionally and frequently like this at all, this is more of when she wants to try and play a trick on her enemy or try and get a deeper look into ones weakness, she can be overall too close towards those she wants to take down.

Intelligent: Diverna is very interested in knowledge and already has a vast key knowledge about most things in antarsia, from a speck of information too a waterfall she researches alot determined to always expand her mind.

History: In Chortari, she was given birth in a nursery den where her mother gave birth to a beautiful young pup, Diverna, as she started to grow up she expressed many acts of hatred over certain things similar to what her father hated really. He was her influence, being a royal and all she saw what he did as a legacy and wanted to extend such demonic natures forever for the Chortari pack.

By the time she was 14 she was already experienced in a few of her abilties however there is still some that are in the need for improvements overall.

That just wasn't his style, but he found that without the shackles of the Mage's College around his legs, he didn't care very much. This little pseudo expedition of his was for his own intents and purposes. Probably a little bit illegal, but there was no time to go through whatever the appropriate channels were now.

His vacation was about halfway done. In the first week, he'd spent a lot of time at the library, had a number of interesting conversations with all kinds of peoples, and tried meats that weren't available in Sleibte. It was a wonderful week of self discovery and a little relaxation.

While working on the most pressing issue - Yfrelo's wards - Killian had discovered some very old, but well researched tactics of magic diffusion that would likely help the city. Not repair the ward, but replace it entirely. He'd need to experiment now while he wasn't under the college's jurisdiction because he had the sinking suspicion that the proposal he'd written before leaving had not only been denied, but passed around as some kind of joke. Perhaps...if Magnus was true to her word, he'd be wrong.

But he doubted that.

He didn't want to risk something catching fire or causing unnecessary noise while staying in the room he had rented for those two weeks. He'd purchased some parchment, some chalk, a couple empty lanterns, various small bits of metal, and special stones that could carry magic. The bazaars were a wonderful pot of cultures and information. He missed it already.

Killian didn't really know how to fly that well. He was small for a Sphinx apparently, and his wings were better suited for gliding than flying. Which was alright with him. If he ran fast enough and jumped high enough, he could cover a lot of ground. Perhaps that was another area of study he could look into: artificial flight.

Once he was far enough away from the city, Killian shifted into human form and set up a little area to work in. He'd brought tools with him as well. Crude and unrefined, but useable. He cast a white fire into the empty lanterns, placed them on the ground, and laid out his other wares.

He pulled out his book of notes and laid that on a bit of parchment, which he had fastened into a low table with a couple runes he'd been able to work on. On another parchment with the same runes, he placed all his previous purchases into small piles and set to work. The basic idea was to build a metal device that could channel the magic contained in the stones. Something that could be scaled up if need be. The right applications of rune magic and a bit of magical metalsmithing would suffice for this tiny prototype.

He got to tinkering. And then he got absorbed in it, tuning everything around him out.
