Title: URF: Registry
Description: Not an Archaic Fantasy RPG
Clix - September 1, 2007 06:26 PM (GMT)
Since I'm still running CoT, it only has so much left to it. The final instalement of the Hallum series will start afterwards, but I want to sort of make sure I can handle a more modern-setting RPG. So, this is sort of a test. But, still expect some amazing things, or something.
Background - This RPG isn't exactly new. It's a complete reinvisionment of a tribute RPG I made 1 1/2 years ago named Final Fantasy: Mission Core. The heart of the story will remain, but everything FF will go. The class system, references, species, magic names, and such are not in this version.
The original starred five main characters: Josh (blonde thief, parody of Locke, Zidane, and Tidus), Kari (stronger female archer, references to Kill Bill, FFIV's Lunarians, and Maria [FFII]), Vandetta (badass gunner, somewhat of a homage to Alucard [Hellsing], the Turks [FFVII], and the Cetra), Artemis (valley-girl beserker monk; parody of Tifa, I think; was also a Cetra), and Twilight (creepy-ass black mage moogle that smoked corpses [DON'T ASK. Saturn is odd.]) Other characters came from this, including the main villain: Julia Rose-Ross. ...For those familiar with A New World 2, you'll understand why she makes a good villain. The story was a bit of a homage to FFVI-VIII.
Now, since I am removing all thinks FF, there'll be changes, obviously. But before I go through the trouble to recreate a new sci-fi fantasy world by myself, I'd like to know if ANYONE is actually interested. Know that I'll probably use strange Hewbric, Arabic, Norse, Greek, and Latin names for races, magic, and locations. Any questions and comments are greatly needed, as I don't want to bust my ass for nothing.

Clix - September 1, 2007 07:56 PM (GMT)
That's good. Here are some race names:
--These are for humanoid animal-like races--
Feline - Voso
Canid (Canine) - Laelap
Equid (Horse-like) - Orobas
Muroid (Rodent-like) - Scarath
Fish - Gaap
Bird- Garuda
Reptilian - Naga
--The rest are more normal humanoids--
Human - TBA
Celestrial Being - Daeva
Ancient Being - Hesiod
Artificial Beng - Berith
Bolts - September 1, 2007 08:00 PM (GMT)
Just how animal like are those races? Like completely obvious or are some almost entirely human?
No I don't intend to use Kenju for this rp if thats what you were thinking
Clix - September 1, 2007 08:07 PM (GMT)
They're sort of suppose to be humanoid (bipedal, two arms) but have a lot of animal features. They are suppose to be sort of my version of Ivalice's humanoid races.
Bolts - September 1, 2007 08:18 PM (GMT)
Ok I think I have an idea of what they look like then.
Tenjen Kouken - September 1, 2007 08:26 PM (GMT)
Ill go for a lynx like voso
Theres quite a past to this RPG, do you want me to follow a certain format for my charecter?
Clix - September 1, 2007 09:43 PM (GMT)
Yes. Here's the character format. I'll have the main thread up later today.
Name:
Age:
Sex:
Sexuality: Optional, but it is a good idea if you plan to develope any romantic character developments.
Species: Sarkinos (human), Voso, Laelap, Orobas, Scarath, Gaap, Garuda, Naga, Daeva, Hesiod, Berith ((NOTE: You can have hybrids. Also, Berith are largely used by the enemy, just to keep in mind.))
Class: Whatever you feel like. The world's relatively advanced, but a lot of people randomly prefer archaic weaponry ((seriously, many modern setting or futuristic RPGs do this...)).
Weapon: Give a custom name if you want, but know that you can't give yourself the best weapons, not yet at least. And, yeah, guns and stuff allowed.
Armor: Give a custom name if you want, but know that you can't give yourself the best armor, not yet at least. Also, by armor, it also means what you are wearing.
Spells: As long as they don't instantly kill, end the world, etc, I really don't care. Names and such are up to you. Try to be relatively original. ...As in, don't blatantly steal the names and effects from other franchises (I.E., if I see anything ending in -ra or -ga, you're going to be frowned upon).
Skills: ...I'm going to trust this to you and hope you don't go stupid on me.
Appearance: Height, maybe weight, body type, eye colors, facal structure, hair color, etc, etc.
Personality: If you have anything special in mind, you can do this optional section. Usually, personality is developed over time...
Background: Nothing retarded (though zanny is allowed) or very over-the-top.
duskstalker - September 1, 2007 10:50 PM (GMT)
((I've been inactive in RPs for too long, so I'd like to give this a try if that's ok. I take it from the other topic it's rebels-only?))
Name: Alan Cage
Age: 23
Sex: male
Sexuality: Not really the romantic type, but doesn't push people away either.
Species: Sarkinos
Class: Martial artist
Weapon: Himself
Armor: A light leather jacket, worn open over a white muscle shirt with a pair of loose-fitting navy sweatpants and relatively plain sneakers. Also wears a tiger-print bandana around his head at all times.
Spells: none
Skills: Alan has dabbled in a large number of martial arts and can mix them fairly well. He's also very accustomed to one-on-one fights, making him effective at reading an opponent, though he's not so prepared for sneak attacks.
Personality: Tries to keep a cool appearance during downtime, but he's a hotshot at heart.
Appearance: A little shorter then average. He's fairly thin, but muscular. He has messy, dark blonde hair. Gold eyes, and a bit of a pretty boy face.
Background: At the time of the new mayor's ascension, Alan was barely treading above the poverty line through illegal underground pit fighting, though his passion for the sport had been dwindling quite significantly over the years. When some friends of his were arrested for, of all things, being too poor he made a decision. He left the arena behind and joined the rebels so he could use his skills to try and make a difference for those so near to him.
((ok?))
0ctane - September 1, 2007 11:41 PM (GMT)
Name:Gregorovitch Recital (Ress-e-tall) (Gregor for short)
Age:42
Sex:Male
Species:Garuda
Class:Hitman?
Weapon: A cane that works very well as a gun. Undetectable my metal detectors. Also and assortment of pointy paralyzing darts to stick in the angry enemy- one of them could drop an elephant, though the thirteen he has can only be used once.
Armor:A suit and a top hat, with a red bow tie and long shirt tails. Gregorovitch prefers the Mafia styled clothes.
Spells:
You can't see me. Creates a basic Illusion around Gregorovitch to either mask himself from other's presence, or just to make his attire seem different.
Be quiet! Disables the enemy from speaking.
You're not ready yet. Knocks an enemy backwards, often making them hit the ground.
Authorization: Denied. Creates a strong barrier around an object, or Gregorovitch himself.
Stop bleeding! Keeps a body from bleeding for a few minutes to a half hour, whether to keep them from dying, or to hide a body.
Skills:Gregorovitch can fly, obviously, but, you know, not an extreme extent. He does usually carry a gun. He can cast some spells, though most of them are just to keep Gregorovitch's tracks hidden. Besides being an excellent marksman and a nice little tongue twister, Gregor can pick locks, cheat, and do a number of other dirty deeds with skill.
Appearance: Gregorovitch resembles an exotic bird, but with humanoid legs. He wears his suit and top hat, and always carries his gun-cane. His
You can't see me spell works wonders, though.
Here's a look at the bird he's based off.Personality:Gregor is a strange Garuda, and talks as if he was German, even though he's not (Gregor was a name change, by the way). He is a gnerally a mean bird, but, you know, that's just how he is. Just, just mean.
Background: He lived a normal life, developing a liking for the Germans, and hit men and mafia bosses. Learned some spells, got in a crime syndicate, and got good at his job. Now he's a lone hit man, and works for a fee.
PS- I'm not using gray text for RPs, because that's silly.
Clix - September 2, 2007 12:34 AM (GMT)
dustalker - Looks great. Welcome aboard. Also, yes, for right now, rebels are the main party members. However, there will be possitions avaliable within Rose-Martin Corp. and such later on. I can create main villains when I want to, but I usually suck at enemy units and such.
Octane - Perfect. Though, just for a reference, don't actually say the world German in dialogue. Since this isn't Earth, Germany doesn't exactly exist. Now, for us the reads/players to understand sort of what he is suppose to be like, you can use the word German to describe him.
-Name: Joshua Rayne (called Josh for short)
-Age: 27
-Gender: Male
-Species: Sarkinos
-Class: Assassin
-Weapon: An assortment of small, sharp knifes for throwing. He also has a small handgun as well. He usually uses two daggars for self defense if he is attacked up close
-Armor: He wears some average body armor under a t-shirt. Since his assassin job is to blend in ((unlike any other assassin I've seen. Seriously, if you look blood-thirsty and are in all black, you are not a very consealed assassin.)), he wears basic street clothes, few thrills. He wears a blue dandana, faded jeans, a white t-shirt, and a blue jacket. He will occasionally throw in sunglasses to the blue mix.
-Spells: Able to mildly increase his speed with a quick-thought spell. The effects last a while, but that is because the spell does little.
-Skills: He's trained to be very accurate and precise with his knives and gun, even in high-stress situations. He thus developed a level-head and a sense of humor to calm tension.
-Appearance: He's roughly 5'9". His short blond hair is generally covered by the blue bandana, though enough strains hang out to give away his hair color. His eyes are a sort of hazel. His face is pretty no-descript; no scars or anything. He just looks like a pretty average guy.
-Personality: He puts on an act of a goof ball. The only time this character of his is not faked is when around his childhood friend, since she brings this side out of him.
-Background: He grew up in a pretty crap family. He detested what his parents, and himself, had to do now and then to get by. He constantedly hated himself for everything and was determined to start a new life. However, when he was nine, his parents were arrested and executed under questionable reasons. Though a scum of society, he was still sent to an orphanage, where he met his life long friend Kari. Little did they know that the orphanage was used to train children soldiers and black ops. Even more disgusted by his life, he tried to commit suicide when he was 14. However, Kari, knowing him too well, found and stopped him. She promised that they could get through this and one day have real lives. But, once in the real world, they found they had to use their sick skills to get by. A few months ago, when a raid by the military police occurred near their appartment, Kari was arrested under poor charges. Knowing he couldn't save her himself, he joined URF as a last chance to save all that he has left.
Tenjen Kouken - September 2, 2007 01:57 AM (GMT)
Not neccessarily the final copy. I'll make changes if needed after you review her.
[and sorry for the length, i kill myself over details in all my artforms]
Name - Parstepheny Lyra Schrodinger [ par-stef-fhuny . lee-rha . skro-dinger]
Age - 25
sex - female
Sexuality - Is bisexual. Gets along better [in the manner of a friend] with females than males but over a long-term friendship, is likely to take interest in either.
Species - A lynx Voso, sarkinos hybrid.
Class - Guardian [utilizes a variety of limited tools and arms]
Weapons - Various grappling/spike launchers [magnetic launcher; only one setting at one time; has to be manually changed] attached to left foot, right arm and in her pole weapon. A variety of tools such as a long distance voice recorder, a monocle with quite a few sight options [telescopic, heat and motion sensor] which can be pulled out from her head gear, a collection of painted orbs which are actually a range of flash, smoke and proximity grenades and a roll of wire for various uses [stored in lower breast plate]
Finally her main weapon, a pole with various customizations. Can be opened up to reveal chain links, has 2 small round[ish] axe-like blades embedded at one end {are magnetically sprung with the right twist to the pole} a spike and grappling launcher on the other end.
Armor - Dynamo. Obsidian colored armor. Fits her body perfectly and uses straps [concealed underneath once the armor is fully worn] and latches to hold together. Latches are made to resist being opened even under force. The armor is made up of a number of segments so as to allow Steph full mobility. Each piece has a structure consisting of a light weight alloy [for actual armored protection] matched with a seemingly weightless plastic like material. Her hands and feet are bare.
The torso section [consisting of a number of joined pieces] looks somewhat bulky [considering Steph's build] with a highly prominent breast plate and lower breastplate. Her entire body is covered with the armor in an ergonomic appropriate fashion, from arms to feet. One exception is her head, which has what looks like headgear to hold her hair together in a bound mass.
It has an attachment to hold her pole [full length as well as for chain split in the middle {2 pieces}] on her back. The launchers are part of the armor [leg and arm gauntlets] . Her lower breastplate also contains spike reloads and extra launcherless grapples [should the originals be rendered inoperable]. Certain key points have spikes with a switch blade mechanism. These include her forearms and triceps area[pops out from the elbow end], her knee area and ankle [pointing down].
Spells -
Magnetic manipulation - Steph generates short bursts of magnetic waves, she uses it as per the situations and opportunities that present them. She uses this to make her weapons function and open her straps and latches. Her proximity mines will never explode within the range of the magnetic field her body naturally exudes.
Physical augmentation - Using latent magical energies, Steph imbues and augments parts of her body. Examples include noticeably greater jumps, offensive blows from various parts of the body, efforts put into constrictions and other such physical endeavors. However she is incapable of prolonged usage, any attempts to do so result in unconsciousness.
Energy transfer - Steph can use an open palm strike or grab to transfer energy from her very essence into the subject. Thus giving her some chaotic muscle control [can only cause muscles to relax or tighten]. It takes a few moments longer than she is comfortable with, to use in combat. Many [jokingly] consider this would make for a neat festivity trick while others [seriously] think she is unable to use it effectively.
Skills - Steph is stealthy, quick, flexible, agile and very athletic, in and out of combat. Much like an over whelming tidal wave. She adapts as per the situation. She is constantly aware of her surroundings, in a non combat sense this makes her sensitive to the moods and subtle actions of those around her.
Appearance - Her features are quite odd. Though her "skin" underneath is a golden tanned beige, Steph's "fur" is melanistic [completely dark pigmentation], a short sheen of fur covers most of her body as much as any short haired feline. Her body is well curved. She has a very noticeable short stub of a tail, as per her lynx heritage.
Her hands seem longer than normal human women but nevertheless seem to suit her. Her hands and feet have claws. Her feet have recognizably human traits but have predominant hind leg characteristics of a feline [she often stands on her toes, holding her feet as a feline would].
Her ears are located near to where a human would have them, they also bear human traits but are movable, furry and have the common tufts of a lynx. Her hair is certainly her most human feature, she keeps it bound at the back of her head into a large shapeless mass.
Her face follows the example of her feet and ears. It is most definitely Voso but with clear human features merged into it as well. She has a felines button nose [but no whiskers or :3, though her face resembles such a shape when she smiles]on a curvy bulge [as with less than well defined human nose structures]. Her eyes have round and black irises, due to this it is unable to determine whether her pupils are sharp or round.
Her body is ectomorphic in nature. She is 6"4' tall and weighs 76kg's.
Personality - Steph is quite withdrawn, when engaged into a conversation by a women she is likely to return the gesture. Reactions to males vary. Once friendship is established her disposition may change. Is mostly lost in a social situation. She is uncomfortable with her body [&image]
background - While not openly rejected by either race, she has spent most of her life being looked upon, & treated, as a curiosity and on a few [but unfortunately life rendering] occasions as an outright freak and insult to the order of nature. The result of a relationship between a sarkinos and lynx Voso, whose comraderie within a group of warriors grew to more than just a little friendly over a span of many years.
She is, as said, uncomfortable with herself. Embarrassed by her Voso and Sarkinos heritage and features whenever she thinks of them. The focus of these emotions goes to her tail, [what she thinks of as] small breasts and facial features [in descending order of stress felt].
Having the dominant genes and blood of 2 warriors from different [yet somehow compatible] races, plus her upbringing by the latter mentioned have honed her into who she is today. She lacks experience of the world however. She has spent most of her life learning to survive in a world she has never seen.

*Reads with delight.* You're hired--I mean, welcome to the RPG. Please don't leave!
Err... yeah, you don't need to change ANYTHING. I haven't seen such a character made with so much love in a while.
deidaraofthestone - September 2, 2007 02:40 AM (GMT)
Name: Vendetta Vandort II
Age: 28
Sex: male
Sexuality: heterosexual
Species: Sarkinos
Class: gunner
Weapon: big blue: a gun with refractory bullets that are re-usable if found, looks somewhat like a machine gun.
Armor: Vendetta wears a crimson red formal suit all the time, along with a wide brimmed indigo fedora and black slacks. He also wears a black overcoat when going out generally
Spells: n/a
Skills: omni-bullet, (can craft the bullet he has to perform most functions a weapon can: I.E. heat-seeking, tranquilizing, etc.)
Appearance: Vendetta has a small goatee, appears tall and skinny, has black hair and can generally be seen with a cigarette in his mouth...(think Jigen from Lupin II if you're familiar)
Personality: Vendetta is generally a very calm, laid back man with a maturity in tight spots that shines through his usual careless demeanor, He makes friends fairly easily, and because of his seeming carelessness, even if he were to gain an enemy he'd still consider them a friend (whether he's aware of their enmity or not, only he would know)
Background: Little is known about Vendetta, he grew up training as a gunner with his Father, Vendetta I, he now seeks to make his living off of his skill with the weapon, whether it be for the terms of lawfulness or chaos, he cares not.
Oh, and Tenjen Kouken...congratulations...I have never seen such an elaborate character sheet since Bokuden......it's beautiful....seriously...
Clix - September 2, 2007 02:44 AM (GMT)
You're not going to make Vendetta a Hesiod, or part Hesiod?
Tenjen Kouken - September 2, 2007 02:46 AM (GMT)
Thank you. I always manage to do my best work after 12am.
**made a few corrections to spelling and grammer.**
My char creation skills are still around but i still have to see if i can still RP. Possibly my best Rp performance was with a dragonkin riding poleaxe weilder with a penchant for bloodsport. Forgot the name of the RP completely, iam terrible with titles and names..
6:50am! - christ i wrote Steph for about 3 hours straight....Duststalker had just posted when i hit the make reply button.
deidaraofthestone - September 2, 2007 02:47 AM (GMT)
no, I didn't really see the point of Vendetta being a cetra. Other than to argue with Artemis....so yeah, I don't see how he would have ben any different whether he was human or not...
duskstalker - September 2, 2007 03:58 AM (GMT)
Yeah... Tenjen deserves huge kudos for that character. I only wish I could come up with something like that so... quickly isn't really the right word... cold... does that make sense? I usually have to use a character for a while to develope it anywhere near that point. Anyway, I forgot one minor detail on my character sheet. I still haven't decided how significant I want it to be to his story, but it was one of the first parts of his appearance that I thought up.
Bolts - September 2, 2007 04:33 AM (GMT)
Name: Hyro (Hero) Nagano
Age: 25
Sex: Male
Sexuality: Hetero
Species: Laelap
Class: Brawler
Weapon:
Claws of the silver wolf, A pair of bright silver claws that have several jagged edges on the bottom of the blade similar to wolf's teeth. The claws easily slide over the top of the wearers hand and have a single black onyx stone imbedded in the center on the top of each claw.
Armor: Usually found wearing a black unbuttoned button up shirt with a pair of black loose cloth pants.
Spells:
Wolf's Desperation, A kind of berserker move in which Hyro's eyes will turn pure white. During this state Hyro often loses his ability to judge just who it is he's fighting but gains a substantial speed boost. Hyro will only enter this state if either his or somone he cares about is in iminent danger.
Shadow Claws, The Onyx in Hyro's claws will start to glow as the blades of the claws turn into a jet black. When this occurs the blades become like that of razor sharp whips extending from his hand to at most five feet each. This helps Hyro make up for the short range of his claws in their normal state.
Shadow Spike, Using his claws, Hyro slashes at the ground causing a large crack to shoot through the ground. When the crack reaches the enemy a large spike of dark energy will shoot out of the ground impaling the target. If Hyro has the shadow claws spell activated while he performs this move the spikes will become like that of flailing vines shooting out of the ground and whipping around wildly.
Aura Beam, When the Onyx's in Hyro's gloves reach their full power during combat Hyro is able to form a large ball between his hands. After doing so Kyro can shoot a roughly seven foot wide beam of dark energy towards his opponent.
Skills: Hightened sense of smell and hearing as well as increased speed and stealth.
Appearance: Hyro has long black hair and blue eyes. His teeth are slightly pointed and he has a pear of small dog ears coming out of the top of his head. ((Think Inuyasha on the ears.))
Personality: Usually always trying to make a joke about anything Hyro is known for being the most capable fool around. He has a tendency to be a bit of a romantisist as well often becoming somewhat of a guardian around women rather than an offensive fighter.
Background: Hyro grew up with his father after his mother died when he was around age 7. His father being an advanced Holy user led to some 'interesting' debates between the to though each had nothing but deep love and respect for the other. When Hyro was 18 he moved out of his house to lead an eventful life as a trainer's apprentice in a martial arts school. At Age 21 he opened a school of his own but has since left that in the care of his best student.
Well that should do it any objections?

If you are part of URF, then you start in the base. Otherwise, we'll have to met you outside of the base in the city.

Hey Clix can a Daeva be a Black Winged Angel?Either way I'll join...
Clix - September 2, 2007 07:42 PM (GMT)
....There are no angelic or demonic characters. Daeva's are more celestrial, sort of glowy and beautiful.
OK, basically, it opens in the base. Since so many innocent people have been arrested, Gvelt has organized a team to commit a prison break. That's basically the opening.

Well, just so everyone knows, I don't start off my own RPGs. I like to give the opening line to someone else.
Also, Bokuden was a member of Nintopia and HHQ (I think he might have joined TFS years ago). He introduced my to text RPGs nearly three years ago. He liked detailed characters and such. Being compared to Bokuden is one of the best compliments Faust or I can bestow on another RPGer.

Darkshmoe - September 3, 2007 12:09 AM (GMT)
Name: Lucius Dime
Age: 26
Sex: Male
Species: Daeva
Class: Mercenary
Weapon: A single scimitar, a ’burrowed’ heirloom from his family. Often strapped to his in a thick leather sheath.
Armor: A tattered white shirt and grey slack which were once of fine quality and made by some of the best known brands to the upper class, however time and work has faded their once magnificent designs to more simple clothing, the tears often poorly sewn up or patch worked with odd threads. Over these he wears a number of metal guards, made of a light silver alloy, these also faded but still whole. He wears guards upon both shoulders, his forearms, his hands and his shins. The shin guards blend in with his trainers which are of the shade of colour.
Spells:
(Note: Lucius uses his own particular style to earth manipulation, his family being particularly skilled at the art of earth spells. Instead of using actual earth, he uses minerals often used for metal making, he can create these into alloys and shapes of his choosing, however it is more taxing then most styles of mineral manipulation. In addition, due to this style being his own, Lucius often carries these particular minerals in his pockets or dust on his clothes, as well as a sort of atmosphere around him. These minerals are undetectable to the normal eye when in neutral stance, however they often set of metal detectors.)
‘Mineral Creation’: Lucius uses his ability to create an object, either for offensive or defensive purposes, the more detail put into the object, the more energy consuming it is.
‘Mineral Wall’: A more defensive technique, Lucius creates a rounded wall to shield himself from physical onslaughts, it can also be used to trap targets or objects.
‘Mineral Burst’: Creates clumps of the metal substance to send flying at a target, these clumps can be sharpened or dulled depending on the situation. As the name implies, these can be sent in short bursts.
‘Mineral Solution’: Requires time and effort, cannot be performed in heat of combat, the process is used to create more of Lucius’s special minerals by extracting them from metals and earth alike.
Skills: His prime skill is the manipulation of both his element and of people, the first being obvious, and the latter being his charm. He reasonably experienced in most scenarios be it combat or otherwise. Despite carrying a sword on his back, Lucius is not very skilled in sword play, preferring to use his mineral manipulation.
Appearance: Lucius stands at 5’ 11’’. His skin has an ominous glow to it, giving him a bright face. His features are sharp, having a very elegant structure to his body, finely toned and looked after during his upper class years. His eyes are sharp like the rest of his body, being a contrasting purple against his skin. His hair is a silvery shade of spiked bangs, violent streaks of black are dyed into it like an aspect of rebellion.
Personality: Tends to hide his truer personality, putting on an artful forward personality, easily engaged and happy to listen, a smile not a frown. However, his real face tends to be more opposite, he generally loathes most people and has a cold demeanor to life.
Background: Lucius was a typical rebel from the upper class in his teenager years, he did it to fit in, be like the others. He excelled liked the rest of his family in earth manipulation, coming up with his own style based on several theories proposed by his teachers, which gained him much gratitude with them. However, he decided to ruin this liking as most of his class did, tending to misbehave and act out against ‘the man’.
It was only till Lucius jumped aboard the latest ship out of his upper class world that he really saw what was going on, his out view on life changed quickly when he went among the lower class. He eventually returned home different, spiteful and hateful to his family. On the night of his return, he left, stealing a heirloom and a large sum of money. His peers guessed he’d taken the rebellion against ‘the man’ a little to seriously.
He was lucky to be able to quickly adapt to his new life style, he wanted to help the lower class, but this required income to keep himself alive, he turned to being a Mercenary, using his elemental skills to overcome tasks and ‘bring home the bread’. Having been unleashed into this world at the age of 21, he has grown accustom to it, although never really integrated.

Name: Kari Lune
Age: 28
Sex: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Species: Sarkinos-Daeva hybrid
Class: Sniper
Weapon: She uses a pretty common sniper riffle.
Armor: She wears a full spandex outfit. She usually wears yellow, but she does occasionally wear brown. More or less, the outfit looks like that of the Bride from Kill Bill Vol. 1. Above her ankles, below her wrists, and around her neck, there are metal bands that she uses as deflective armor.
Spells: She knows an assortment of basic magic. Mostly, she uses fire spells and healing spells. ((Note: I'll probably be coming up with the names at random and later go back and record them.))
Skills: She has great aim. Her beauty is also sometime used as a weapon of sorts. Her greatest skill is her awen. When she very angry or cornered, she loses it. Then, her Daevan comes out. Her hair turns white, and she begins to random nuke powerful spells, rather she normally knows them or not.
Appearance: She is 6'0". Her build is slim, but still pretty fit. Really, she could be a good fist-fighter, but she prefers her scope over fists. Her hair is long, wavy, and a glowing gold. Her skin is pale and celestrial, and her eyes are similar. Staring into them is like staring into pools of water reflecting a full moon.
Personality: She comes off strong. She lacks timid around Josh, but she is very well-spoken otherwise. Much like Josh is most natural around her, Kari is most natural around Josh. Though, everyone else sees this the other way around.
Background: She was an orphan bastard. Raised in the same orphanage as Josh, she was taught how to kill as well. Since she was very small as a child, she was taught how to snipe. She never questioned anything until she befriend Josh. He revealed the Hell this life was, and she felt bad for him. Since this was all she had known, she never was depressed, but Josh, who had first tasted freedom, was made jaded. She kept close to him, and she ultimately stopped him from commiting suicide when he was 14. While they have always had obvious feels, their screwed up childhood made things complicated when it came to expressing romance. But, one thing was for sure, they were inseperatable. This also lead to Kari's arrest. From there, Josh joined the URF to save her.

Because he is a hybrid he actually has a somewhat more human looking body type. he a a normal mouth and face, though instead of hair, he has a crest of small,black feathers that function the same way. Instead of fingers, he has five talons in the shape of a hand which he wears gloves over. His feet are also taloned, but it's less noticeable.
Coming from his back are his wings, which fold comfortabley into a surprsingly small area. The feathers are a dark grey and are hard and scale-like. He wears his armor all the time, since its light and it looks good , as well as Dark blue cargo pants. Though he has a somewhat slim body type, most of his body is actually muscle.
Background: Ren was orphaned at a young age and wound up living with his wealthy uncle on his fathers side. His uncle was agreeable to him, but had a very low and bigoted opinon of those he called "lower class" which was pretty much anyone less wealthy and of any other race, and Ren secretly despised him. Leaving home at an early age out of disgust at his uncles treatment of others, he learned to survive on his own on the streets and was disappointed to find many others with almost as bad attitudes. his sense of justice and expertise at fighting in a round about way led to him becoming a sort of do-gooder mercenry for a while, helping out the poor for little pay.
He has no remaining memory of his parents, or knowledge of why he looks different from other Garuda, as his uncle refused to speak of his progenators(in other words, he has no Idea he is part Hesiod), But he has reasoned that his shadow powers, which he naturely came into, are passed down from one of his parents.
