Tales of Hallum: Duet of Blood is the fourth installment of the Tales of Hallum series. Duet of Blood focuses on the exploits of the Death Merchants during the Zutan Civil War, which takes place in 1734 in Zotta, Gratu. As the forth installment, DoB connects some of the cast and events of the first two installments (Love of a Lunar Maiden [Allana, Gratu - 1712] and Fairy Tale Autumne [Autumne, Gratu - 1714]) with the cast and events of the third installment (Chronicles of Tana [Tana - 735-755]).

In Gratu, magic reigns, old fashion weapons still rule the day (though advancements in guns and machines are starting to phase out archaic wapons), and many races live in harmony. Zotta is the most northern country in Gratu. Half of Zotta is the mainland. The mainland has a rolling piedmount surrounded by mountains in the east and west. The second half is a series of northern islands, many of which are sub-arctic. Zotta is populated by humans, vampires, demons, angels, and dwarves (as well as some smaller minorities). The civil war that is the center of the RP is between the human government and two militaristic vampire clans. Stuck in the middle of this chaos is the main party, the Death Merchants. They are a ragtag bunch of mercenaries and freelancers that go about hunting bounties as if they were simply gathering some from inventory for a customer.

Now, for the character creation sheet. Note that you don't have to join the main party. You can control characters in the other three factions. The Death Merchants will often interact with the other factions, and the other factions play such a large role that their central members do get significant 'screen time'.

Personality: She is very bossy and will not listen to other's opinions unless she wants to hear them. Her stubborness is deadly, but she will quickly abandon a cause she finds to be lost.

Most people at first simply think she's slightly chubby. She is averagely endowed. She has slightly tanned light skin because of her outdoor training. Her hair is long (to shoulder blades on her back), brown, and braided to keep it from being a distraction. Her eyes are also brown. Her face is no soft but not jaded--cocky is the best way to describe it.
Role: Party Leader, Main Character
Background: Kunoichi was born in Sharr into a poor farming family. However, desperate bandits from Autumne attacked her village and her family's farm. Her family was killed, and she was later taken in by Sharr's Special Forces to recieve training as a new program to better utilize orphans. She proved to be especially skilled, but she retained her individualism. She grew up in the institute with few posessions, which vexed her. When she intentially failed the graduation test, she was kicked out and left to her own accords. She went around using her skills to make any money she could. She ultimately met Oracle and Cloak when she was 19, and they together created a new bounty hunter team that feed Kunoichi's greed and Kunoichi and Oracles' shared eccentric ideals.

Skill(s): She is a skilled contortionist and whip user. She has a haphazard knowledge of medicine and toxins/acids. In her free time, she likes to mix herbs and substances to create new concoctions. Her medicine generally works well... when she doesn't confuse one of her toxins for medicine.
Personality: She is a full-blown nut job. She keeps quiet, but that's because she's aware just how nutty she is when normally talking. She uses odd phrases that sometimes don't make sense.
Romance(s): Kunoichi (though she won't admit it)
Ambition(s): Currently, her dream is to see Kunoichi's fulfilled.
Preference(s): She loves blood, gore, toxins, cutting herself, breasts, cold meat, and heavy alcohol. She hates children, homosexuals (she's a hypocrite), bandages, older men, burnt food, and hot drinks.
Appearance: She is about 5'2". Her shortness and childish attitude makes her seem younger than she is. She is well endowed and this is purposely exploited by Kunoichi in order to attract customers. On her back, Kunoichi has carved in all the bylaws of the Death Merchants. On her wrists are scars from her cutting herself. She wears the DM jacket to cover these scars (even though she could easily heal them). She was born with a pair of white wings, but she surgically removed them herself as she didn't care for them. Her eyes are blue, and her hair was once blonde. Now her hair is a light red, thanks to a blood-based dye she made. She has a younger face to match her body size. She is very thin and light, even given her size.
Role: Party Member, Main Character
Background: Oracle was born into a normal angel family in Goldengate. However, her rebellious attitude led to her run away when she was seven. It was then that she created her fake name (she has never told anyone her birth name). She made it to Helsing, where she ran into Lady Schambregella. Lady Schambregella, as if on a whim, took in Oracle and paid for her entry into Helsing's magical academy. Oracle initially wasn't interested in magic, but she became mezmerized by Schambregella's seeing magic, and thus Oracle became a seer. After graduation at age fifteen, she became a traveling fortuneteller to get by. During free time, she studied medicine and the arts to creating toxins. At age 19, she met Kunoichi, who she immediately fell in love with. Along with Cloak, the three formed the Death Merchants.

Codename: Cloak (has never revealed his real name)
Age: nearly 50
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Asexual
Species: Human?
Nationality: Unknown
Job: Death Merchant's Backup Trumpcard; former wonderer
Weapon(s): Fallen Angel MacNamara (a black sword that looks very dull. It is a little under three feet long. Its metal coating negates spells that it makes contact with.)
Armor/Clothes: Along with the Death Merchant jacket, he wears lots and lots of black cloaks, hoods, cloth masks, etc. Ultimately, he has no visible flesh or eyes and mouth. How he sees and properly breathes is also a mystery, as his clothing is thick.
Magic Discipline(s): Unknown
Spell(s): Sigma Blade (enchants the blade with a green, aethereal light. It can then seemingly cut anything without resistance, despite being very dull)
Skill(s): He has superhuman strength, speed, and reflexes. In a sense, he is a killing machine. He can combat a master swordsman using two swords with one and still win in a short amount of time. He seems to defy human limitations.
Personality: He has none. He grunts and speaks a few words when necessary. He never has actual imput, and he merely follows and actions upon command.
Romance(s): Unknown, if any (Cloaks?)
Ambition(s): Unknown
Preference(s): Unknown
Appearance: He looks like a giant black bundle of clothes with legs and a sword. His many clothes add to his initial bulk, whatever that may, and thus he looks huge. Otherwise, he has no other significant features.
Role: Ally
Background: His past is unknown. At sometime, he came to possess his blade and became a famous wonderer. He helps only when asked, and when ordered to do something he will continue to commit to the order until ordered not to. He met Kunoichi and Oracle a year ago, and he thus ended up joining them. Because Kunoichi does enjoy battle, Cloak is often banned from fighting, as that would distract from the fun. The most he does is get thrown into a group of enemies to confuse them and lower their guard.

Oi, do I even need to say that I'm in this by now? It's late though so I'll have that bio up sometime today when I wake up. I might have to get your help with a few things as usual.

spirits: Geomancy (Dante can control the terrain around him, specifically the element of Earth. Though he mainly uses this defensively, he can use it offensively as well.)
Personality: Dante is a lady's man. He will do anything to impress a woman who has captured his eye. Not to say he isn't a guy to like multiple girls.

Role: Party Member
Background: Dante was born to Elizabeth Ashcroft, the prodigal daughter of the Ashcroft clan of vampires. Dante's mother was very neglective, and thus, he had to fend for himself for most of his childhood. The only information he could gai of his father was that he was apparently from Flara.

Magic Discipline(s): bardic magic

Songs: (there are a lot more than this but these are some of the core ones)

Nocturne of Souls: An attack of soundwaves that grows more powerful with the more people he kills. Sounds like the moans of the dead. Causes the target to become incredibly disoriented and unbalanced. Even to the point of falling over unconscious.

Bolero of Empathy: A strange song where Hakuya actually absorbs the sound around him and projects hit outward. Allowing those around him to hear what is up to 100 meters away.

minuet of tranquility: Hakuya's first song. He wrote it during his time in Tana, it can cause a person to continue fighting despite mortal wounds. It does not cure these wounds, but the person can simply ignore them while they are in earshot of the music.

theme and variations of despair: Allows Hakuya to block elemental attacks, there are different variations of this theme depending on what element is being used against him.

prelude of fear: An eerie melody that is developed to trigger a deep ancestral fear in nearly all creatures.

Requiem for a dream: Hakuya's teleportation song that allows him to travel between the world of the living and dead.

(those are his old ones, here are some new ones.)

Aria of suffering: An airy, song that uses sounds and echoes from surrounding objects in order to confuse the target and throw them off of Hakuya's true location. Usually played from a distance by Hakuya.

Ballad of Disgust: Causes people to be irritable to the point of lashing out at others. He's used this to assassinate groups by having them turn against one another.

(and there are others.)
Spirit Class: wind
Spirit(s): flight, aeromancy
Skill(s): Hakuya, being an assassin has the ability to move with an obscene amount of stealth. He is also devoid of life signs at all times. He is very adept at torture as well. Both taking it and administering it. Hakuya can teleport, and seemingly leave the planet as it were. He is completely monotone in his emotions, showing only a strange happiness at all times. He also seems to have an aura about him that makes animals avoid him.
Personality: Hakuya, like oracle, is a nut-case. He is a sadist, and a mass murderer. Though he only kills what he is contracted to kill. He is very spacey and can stray off onto random tangents at times. Making it very hard to hold a coherent conversation with him. He is always smiling though he can show strain in his voice when he speaks of certain topics. Specifically Dai Gratu.
Romance(s): none
Ambition(s): to obtain amulets for his necklace/unknown to all but himself
Preference(s): Hakuya, in this form, does not seem to have much problems with anything. He does have a thing for tea though.
Appearance: Hakuya is about 5'4". He has long white hair. Graying eyes without pupils. His skin is even paler than that of Dante. Most notably, Hakuya is completely indistinguishable from most attractive women. ((A point which he will flaunt.)) Other than this, Hakuya does not have much notable features. He always carries a hunting bag with him, the contents of which, remain unknown.
Role: Party Member
Background: After leaving Tana. he sailed the seas and arrived in Gratu some few hundred years ago. He met a sorceress who separated him into fragments. Hakuya, or at least, the portion of him which retained his original appearance and memories.

He has made a contract with the Ashcroft sisters to kill all those involved in the death of Nosferatu Ashcroft, and all members of the Allanan black market as well.

((We'll meet Hakuya later, I'll start out with just Dante))

Name: Riku Zamura

Codename: Riku of Many Blades

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Hetreosexual

Species: Human

Nationality: Allana

Class: Swordsman

Job: Swordsman for hire

Weapon(s): ((Note: Blades that are currently in his posession will be in bold. He will only start off with two as in the previous rp.))

Shikomo the Lightning Blade: Allows the wielder to summon down bolts of lightning as well as perform the lightning slash.

Kiori the Fire Blade: Allows the wielder to create wave of fire as well as perform the fire slash.

Ryoko the Ice Blade: Allows the wielder to cause a small blizzard around them as well as create large icicles to launch at the opponent.

Andari the Earth Blade: Allows the wielder to create a small earthquake.

Ichimori the Blade of Light: Allows the wielder to create a small Holy shield around them.

Maruki the Blade of Darkness: Allows the wielder to create one shadow clone of themself. While this technique is being used Riku's strength will be split in half. Meaning that the shadow is half as strong as Riku when he is not using the spell. The same go's for Riku himself.


Armor/Clothes: Riku usually wears a long sleeve, button up, blue collard shirt. His pants are a simple black cloth and his shoes are a pair of newly purchased brown work boots.

Magic Discipline(s): None

Spell(s): None

Spirit Class: Anger

Spirit(s):

Wolf Berserker: Like all Zamuras, Riku is subject to the wolf berserker. This form comes about when Riku loses contact with his blades. In this form his hair will shift to bright silver, his eyes will go milky white so that not even the pupil is visible, and his hands will become like that of wolf's claws. During this form his speed is more than doubled but his mind is completely lost. Infact this berserker is a seperate mind altogether. Many a time, it has tried to escape after a battle, only to be subdued by Katsu's magic long enough for Riku's blades to be returned to him.

Skills:

Riku is far faster than any normal human, unless of course they are gifted with time magic. Few have ever beaten him in a foot race, and even fewer have tried.

Personality: Fun loving and a bit of an idiot at times, Riku is just the kind of guy you don't know what to expect out of.

Romance(s): Alcohol, Riku is currently single.

Ambition(s): Settle down, start a family, so on and so forth.

Preference(s):

Likes: Alchohol of any kind and women who display a certain degree of class, and perhaps a bit of fighting capability.

Dislikes: People who destroy good booze. Overly prissy women. Men who don't treat women with respect. Letting go of his swords.

Appearance: Riku is almost the spitting image of the former hero of Tana, Kenju Zamura. His hair is jet black and somewhat long and unkept, occasionally hanging below his eyes. His eyes are a kind of deep saphire blue that often entrances the women he speaks to. He stands at roughly 6' 2" and weighs 175 pounds. His skin is smooth and tanned.

Role: Party Member

Background: Riku grew up in Allana a fairly normal lad until his 13th birthday. It was at this time in which he woke up and found several blades now strapped to his body. When he asked his mother about this she revealed to him the true nature of his birth. His mother was at one time married to a Zamura who's berserker had been sealed by the blades. Unfortunately that seal had broken and he was never heard from again. However this had not occured until after Riku's mother had become pregnant with him. She then told him what her husband had told her. That the blades were the only way to keep his mind intact, that to lose them would mean the loss of himself and everything he held dear, and that he would be responsible for sealing the other Zamura's who were now victemized by their berserkers. By the time he was 16, he and Katsu set out on this quest. Unfortunately though, two years later, Riku lost contact with his blades in a small town and ravaged through the area. He was doomed to hang from a noose but was saved by Katsu. Unfortunately the silver haired warrior was only able to return to Riku two of his much needed blades. The others were auctioned off. Now he works with Katsu in Korplin, doing various jobs while hoping to someday recapture his family blades.




Name: Katsu Myoto

Codename: Gale

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Hetreosexual

Species: Human

Nationality: Allana

Class: Swordsman/Animus Mage

Job: Swordsman for hire

Weapon(s): Torrent Blade, A huge sword roughly 7' in height. It is only wieldable by Katsu as it has been enchanted just for him. The enchantment makes the blade weigh about as much as the standard katana though he often uses his manipulation of the wind to further decrease this weight.

Armor/Clothes: Usually seen wearing a long sleeve, button down, black collard shirt. His pants are made of a simple black cloth and his shoes are a pair of mildly scuffed black boots.

Magic Discipline(s): Animus Magic (Wind)

Spell(s):

Flight

Hurricane Sweep: Allows Katsu to create an incredibly strong burst of wind by sweeping the broad side of the blade infront of him as if it were a large fan.

Cyclone: A twister like attack that creates just what it's name implies. A cyclone. The cyclone can be anywhere from 3', to lift up party members and push objects out of the way, or 20', to send enemies flying.

Skill(s): Though he often prefers flight and his blade looks like it would weigh him down, Katsu is actually quite fast. Perhaps not as fast as his friend Riku, but he holds his own.

Personality: Sarcastic and a bit of a jerk at times, Katsu is known for having somewhat of a short fuse. Beyond this however, he is an all around good guy.

Romance(s): Like his friend Riku, Katsu is currently single, though he does hope to improve on this aspect later.

Ambition(s): Katsu hopes one day to own a house of his own, start a family, maybe even open up a school for other animus mages.

Preference(s):

Likes: Having a good time, more sofisticated forms of liqour such as wine and brandy though he does occasionally enjoy a good beer, flirting.

Dislikes: The cold. Honestly he despises ice and even has a hard time with cold beverages. Hates men who don't treat women with atleast a certain amount of respect and will often fight them for it.

Appearance: Katsu is quite tall, standing at roughly 6' 4". He weighs roughly 173 pounds, without the sword strapped to his back. His skin is smooth and tanned. His eyes are a kind of icy blue. His hair however is what sets him off. It is long, stretching almost the entire length down his back, and blazing silver. Why its like this, no-one has a clue.

Role: Party Member

Background: When they were young, Katsu and Riku were great friends and they have remained such today. The two were often seen wrestling in the fields or flirting with women that were usually far out of their league. Once, when they were each twelve, each of them tried to woo a twenty four year old woman together by saying, 'If you put us together we're the same age as you!' Nowadays ,despite his blatent objections, Katsu has spent most of his time in Koplin with Riku trying to scrape by on various jobs that required their 'skills'. He despises the cold weather there and has been begging Riku after every job to consider a new place of business.

Name: Zack Millard

Codename: The Raven

Age: 25

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual.

Species: Demon

Nationality: Zotta

Class: Offensive Specialist: Crowd Control and Psychological Warfare.

Job: Independant Mercenary/Bounty Hunter

Weapon(s): Double-Edged Knight’s long sword with a golden hilt and pommel. A Octagonal ruby is imbedded in the hilt of the sword.

Armor/Clothes: Heavily clad in black, Zack wears an ebony, hooded cloak which often covers his body from shoulders to feet. Underneath, Zack wears chain mail over a brown leather vest. Zack has no sleeves but wears a black leather glove on his left hand. Zack wears long black pants with deep pockets.

Magic Discipline(s): Dark Magic

Spell(s):

Intangible Darkness: Zack manipulates darkness, moving it and altering its intensity where he desires. Zack is adept enough with this skill to be able to change at will the lighting on a battlefield, or if he wishes, only in the vicinity of his opponent.

Tangible Darkness: A wide span of darkness creation and manipulation. Zack can control the form and solidity of darkness with extreme finesse. This power is extremely open to Zack’s creativity, and is not restricting in its potential.

((Is it alright that I made this open? Going for more of a general manipulation for combat support rather than powerhouse spells with specific effects.))

Fool’s End: A technique deserving special note. An assassination technique made specifically for killing weaker warriors who are unable to defend themselves, or others whose guards are down. Zack utilizes the darkness and lack of light inside the human body (usually the intestines) and grasps control of it. Once Zack has a grip on the darkness within the victim, he rapidly expands it causing the victim to explode violently and gruesomely. Used often for purposes of psychological warfare.


Skill(s): Though not the fastest, Zack is quick on his feet and fast with his sword. Zack has extremely flexible and strong wrists and forearms for finessed movements with his blade. Zack also has ample, but not extraordinary muscle.

Due to his wings, Zack also has the ability to fly.

Through training, Zack can control his magic largely without physical movement or incantations. For more powerful techniques, physical action is required, but Zack can usually fight without so much as twitching a finger.

Personality: A sadistic, arrogant individual who has his own views on how the world should be. Zack has a superiority complex which boarders on megalomania. Despite this, Zack is socially tolerable to get along with as he understands that surviving in a group dynamic is the easiest way to live.

Romance(s): None.

Ambition(s): Zack has grown to accept his life as a mercenary, so he has no real aspirations other than making it bigger than he is now.

Preference(s): Zack enjoys good food and entertainment. Zack dislikes hypocrisy above all else.

Appearance: Zack stands about 6’2 with pitch black slightly styled hair and deep brown eyes. Zack has a sharply shaped face with defined features. He has a lean build, but appears bigger than he actually is due the large wings on his back which are styled much like a raven’s.

Role: To start out, Rival (Solo) Mercenary often competing with main group for bounties.

Background: To be explained at a later point.


Tell me if anything doesn't check out so I can change it. Thanks.

Sounds good. You did leave job "blank" (it lists the my description of the catagory). For magic, yes, spells don't really need incantations or such. The two weaker and looser spells can practically be performed without a second's hesitation, but this instant power comes with the draw back of being pretty weak in offensive capabilities. But, for the stronger one, a charge time is needed but it pays off. During the RP, you can have him learn a few other spells, like perhaps Bauckram (Rockwell used it against Dolnagius. The user's shadow violently yanks the user into the darkness to teleport him out of harm) and Profano.

Sidenote: This should be fun... Zack can technically kill Oracle without much effort. Because she was born with wings, she possesses the fetal weakness to dark powers even though she removed the wings. ...And, of course, Oracle doesn't know any offensive light powers to exploit Zack's weakness. Hopefully the rivalry will be short lived.

Aight, I made the edits. It's updated now.

I'll just keep in mind what you said about the two more open techniques and their strength being proportional to how much time and power are out into them.

I'm going to go ahead and post the profiles to the three lead generals of the three factions.

Appearance: She looks very plain and nondescipt. Her expression is very neutral and pensive. Her hair is long and black like her eyes. Her skin a pale gray.
Role: Antagonist
Background: Her past is sketchy. She was born in a small demon village in the Zutan Islands, and she lived their until she was eight. At that time, she was kidnapped and believed to be dead. Nearly a decade later she showed up in Zotta's Krysof region, and there she joined the Lee Clan. Somehow she learned all her magic and awakened all of her spirits (which she mysteriously had despite no other family member having them) while she was kidnapped.

Age: 20
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Homosexual
Species: Human
Nationality: Zotta
Class: Axewoman
Job: General of the Zutan Government Military
Weapon(s): A large duel edge axe that weighs nearly a hundred pounds.

Magic Discipline(s): Destruction
Spell(s): Counterslay (Counters an enemy's spell by shooting a crimson laser, which pierces the spell, absorbs the spell, and counterattacks the attacker) and Chaos (a giant dark ball of black and crimson flames)

Combination(s): Pyroclasmic Slash (combines Chaos and pyromancy with her axe to create on fatal blow)
Skill(s): She is extremely strong. She has trained her body to be able to weild the giant axe effectively. However she still is weighed down in foot movement, though she has good swind speed when considering what she's carrying. She likes to focus on close-range combat and use pyromancy as her only defense.
Personality: She is gunho and reckless. She does not believe in a strong defense, only a strong offense. She is very strict to following orders, though she likes to bend them a little when it means providing her with a more worthy challenge.
Romance(s): Wanda Gerl, Isabella Hadrian
Ambition(s): Ronia wants Isabella to except Ronia's feelings for Isabella.
Preference(s): She likes women, combat, challenges, and hot weather. She hates losing, rejection, and winter.
Appearance: She is very tall for a woman--6'1". She is very muscular, and if not for the jacket she would look like a man. Her hair is bright red and cut short. Her skin is a rich tan, as if she grew up in a desert, not arctic Zotta. Her eyes are a fiery green.
Role: Antagonist
Background: She too has an odd past. She grew up as a frail child on a Zutan farm. She was kidnapped at age five while she was sick with a deadly cold. She resurfaced in Zotta over a decade later as a strong, healthy warrior. Her family was happy to see her still alive, though they could not recognize her at all in any fashion. Her dramatic change almost raises the question if she is the real Ronia Freyja.

Skill(s): He is skilled in quickly swapping out Auctorita to make sure he has the advantage. He uses his ammomancy to create defense walls around him with his will.

Personality: He is savvy, wise, and a bit comedic. He likes to make light of the situation. However, work is no laughing matter, and he takes battle serious. However, when bored, he will sometimes accidently lower his guard. When this is exploited, he chides himself for such a mistake.

Background: Like the other three, he was a normal boy that was kidnapped as a kid. When he showed up in Autumne, he headed towards Draco to join the Chamblee Clan, where his skills were well recieved. Finally, he too has some connection with Ronia and Isabella.

FLAHBADAH!

Name: Shoshuo Timus

Codename: Sho (after his, some large amount of greats, grandfather)

Age: 21

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Species: Human w/ a small amount of angel

Nationality: Zotta

Class: Thief (runs in the blood) and the “official” slack off

Job: No real job but gets paid to break into places to check the security

Weapon(s): A broadsword (a little on the short side), and a dagger with two blades, one above the other, the blades facing in opposite directions. He also carries a canister that holds the water he needs for his water spirits.

Armor/Clothes: He wears light plate armor, under, a black shirt with a hood, black shoes, black pants, made to connect to the shoes and black fingerless glove.

Magic Discipline(s): Very weak light

Spell(s): Flash (makes a blinding wall of light in front of Shoshuo)

Spirit Class: Time & water

Spirit(s): Time: Slow (slows down time around him) and Stop (stops all time around him for about 10 seconds)
Water: Water Needles (pressurizes the water into small blades which he then launches at the foe), Wave (he takes all the water in the canister to make a large wave to push/ drown the foe) and Water Blast (a moved past down in the Timus family that was perfected by Sho’s great-grandson, he takes the water in the canister to release a large blast of water from his pointer finger, it can even destroy flesh and heavily damage bones)

Skill(s): Very good at stealth, and is a self-proclaimed master of pick pocketing.

Personality: Is usually silent and serious but when he isn’t, he tends to act energetic, and even at times cocky.

Romance(s): None currently

Ambition(s): To follow in the footsteps of his, however many greats, grandfather Sho (except he wants to actually be in the end)

Preference(s): He likes stealing, money, jewels, pretty much anything valuable. He dislikes things with absolutely no value, and ignorant people.

Appearance: He is about 6’2” He has flame red hair, his right eye is as clear as glass, while his left eye is a light blue. He has a semi-muscular build. His skin is pale, almost as though he has never seen the sun.

Role: Will be an ally at first but will eventually join the group (if I can't do that I will just be a party member)

Background: Ending of Sho (abridged version): After Aino was defeated, Sho trained himself and eventually used his spirits to cross the ocean. When he arrived in Gratu he mainly wandered around, until he met the woman who became his wife, who turned out to be half-angel. They eventually settled down in Zotta where they started a family. Their pasts lost with the flow of time.

Beginning of Shoshuo: Shoshuo was an average boy living with his family, until one day, the day he turned 16, he got a letter addressed to him from, “Sho Timus”. After he read the letter and found out about his blood line he started trying out the powers that were supposedly in his blood line. When the people in his village learned about what he was doing he was thrown out, and his family was ridiculed and thought of as nut-cases. Shoshuo started training himself using the methods recorded in the letter. He now tries to live a simple life, while helping people like Sho had.

At first I was a bit thrown back that you're using Sho 2.0. However, reading the whole profile, things seem well organized and logical. Thus, I have no further complaints. Plus, Shoshuo will fit right into the part for the next RP's (Moonset Requiem) main party, Mond's Bandits.


BTW, just to let everyone know, every ToH has five main characters. However, it's not until post-game that they are generally decided. For the first RP, Love of a Lunar Maiden, the five main characters were Christopher Silvergate (human knight), Faust Johann Goethe (human thief), Emerald Goldengate (human monk), Samantha Braisen (merman swordswoman), and Laura Lenora (not playable human psychic).
Fairy Tale Autumne starred Yuki Kuroda (vampiric onihi fighter), Sven Reinhardt (human thief), Dionysus Solus (human necromancer), Christopher Silvergate (human swords master), Ettore Monsù (human Chaos Sage).
Chronicles of Tana starred Aino (deity berserker/fighter), Buna Thespis (demon mimic [villain]), Morgan Mistrude (human *insert various classes here*), Kenju Zamura (human swordsman), and Rockwell Howell (werewolf Chaos Sage)

So, already, DoB has two main characters, Kunoichi and Oracle. Those that would like to take up the three other spots, know that you must become part of the plot, not just a player in the plot. Now, you can't be too intrusive that it seems like something is off. You merely have to use your character as naturally and effectively as possible, run a lot of the sidequests (which there will be many of as I'm too lazy to develope an entire plot by myself). More or less, the best examples of this were Kenju and Morgan and just how well Bolts and ULX used the mechanics of the story to make the plot theirs, not just mine.

Thanks, I'm happy to be in it and because of what you said I can't wait for Moonset Requim. I just hope I can be in the end this time.

and finally my three antagonists: (in case you're wondering why I have so many characters, it's because I was in the other Tales of Hallum RPG's way back when.)

Donnern ( a spear with a very large grappling hook effect. She uses this to reel in fleeing opponents the wire to which it is connected is barbed.)

She has attempted to recruit Dante to their cause multiple times, as the last male Ashcroft, it is his birth-right to lead the clan. However he has refused, though she still pursues him and Faust.

and finally my three antagonists: (in case you're wondering why I have so many characters, it's because I was in the other Tales of Hallum RPG's way back when.)

Spirit Class: fire

As well as a deceptively girly demeanor, she wears a lot of make-up and is nearly perpetually smiling in an insane, twisted, grin. She also has multiple piercings on her face, as well as several on her tongue and throughout other parts on her body as well.
Role: antagonist
Background: Victoria is the youngest of the Ashcroft sisters, as well as the most unstable. She has always been a battle-ready nutcase. She merely follows Beatrice due to boredom and the amount of opportunities to spread chaos inherent in the job.

and finally my three antagonists: (in case you're wondering why I have so many characters, it's because I was in the other Tales of Hallum RPG's way back when.)

Name: Integra Ashcroft
Age: 176 (looks to be in her early thirties)
Gender: female
Sexuality: heterosexual
Species: vampire
Nationality: Draco castle, Autumne
Class: archer

Personality: Integra is a cool (no pun intended) calm person, she remains distant at most times and generally very quiet, though she can talk when needed, and will even help her opponents if she thinks her sisters are playing unfairly, she is truly an enigma.
Romance(s): unknown
Ambition(s): unknown
Preference(s): Integra likes mountains, quiet places, and lakes, as well as winter and solitude, she can often be found separated from her sisters and by herself simply meditating and communing with nature. She dislikes humans, specifically the Zutan government, as they are the most technologically advanced in Gratu, and thus the ones that have the largest effect on the natural world.
Appearance: Integra stands at roughly 5'5". Her hair is white, her skin is paler than both her sisters, she also has blue eyes, Integra always has a calm expression on her face. She is contemplative most of the time.
Role: antagonist, ally
Background: Integra is the eldest of the Ashcroft sisters, and quite possibly the strongest. Though she doesn't do much in battle purely due to apathy. She is not particularly interested in the revival of the Ashcroft clan, she is more in tune to nature than both her sisters and holds a very deep connection, she is also the only sister that knows the dark secrets of the Ashcroft clans history.

group combination: ((as the Ashcrofts tend to fight as a group.)) annihilation: An intensive combo which is meant to wipe out large numbers of enemies. It begins with Victoria throwing bombs at the enemies in rapid succession to effectively blind them for the next few minutes. Next, Beatrice uses Fliegen to knock the opponents into the air, whereupon Integra freezes them, then while in the air, all three sisters attack in a bombardment of all their weapons simultaneously barraging the frozen enemies.

The map for Allana has been completed, and a small history of each kingdom has been written up below. Sadly, I didn't have access to Paint yesterday, so I'm a day behind with the maps. Sorry.

New Characters:

Name: Beck Gav
Codename: Drift
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Species: Muse (historically primarily muse family, but bent towards being elf-heavy due to grandmother.)
Nationality: Autumne
Class: Trapper. Drift is known for ensnaring foes, and restrains from killing them while keeping them in check to be killed if necessary. He is fairly talented at defense against physical weapons, as well.

Job: Mercenary; tries to stay localized to areas to build a reputation and increase his fees, but has been driven from various areas for illegal activities.

Weapon(s): -Snare whips: These whips were designed by Beck, as a result of the ideal weapon to help him work over years of jobs dealing with whatever weapons he could hold onto at the time. The creator was quite skilled, but never paid for the whips, and killed by them shortly after making them. The whips are key to capture, due to their unique design. Based around a simple whip, the flexibility is compromised by separated into sections by hollow chutes of metal, between each of which lies a four-pronged ring of blades, each prong being a small, sharp triangle, the ring of which is angled down like a fan. The tip of the whip is capped with a sharp, longer blade which prevents the dividing cylinders and individual blades from falling off the whip. These whips serve to wrap around the foe, and are controlled by magnetic spells. The rings of blades can spin freely to rend the flesh of one captured if it is necessary to weaken the foe further, and can also be used to threaten a captured foe into resisting no further, less they be ripped apart.
While it is common practice for Drift to use but one of these whips, due to their great length and heavy metallic structure, he carries a total of eight, which have to be stored in a large pack he totes everywhere.

Armor/Clothes: Behind his whips, Beck rarely sees danger of injury, so he wears no armor. His clothes are meant to be somewhat practical, complicated only by his own desire for a personal style. His boots are rough and thick, dark brown across the top, hard sole tipped with a thin metal plate at the toe and heel. His pants are rough and black, somewhat tight-legged, but loose enough to keep mobility unimpaired. He wears a tight short sleeve brown undershirt with a loose neck underneath a somewhat leather-like dark jacket, also black, with red trim between the different sheets of fabric. He wears this jacket open in most weather, even when fairly cold, and usually rolls up the sleeves to just below his elbows.

Magic Discipline(s): Animus. While it was intended for Beck to study a diversity of magic as a child, he took specifically to magnetism, and slacked in most of his studies. He eventually was made to leave the study on lack of progress. He worked on his own to further understand magnetism once he began work as a merchant.

Spell(s):
Magnete Dominare- Projects a magnetic field to the user's will in his immediate area. A spell that Beck worked the details for and put together after reading some basics and information in other similar spells. This spell is strongest in areas nearest to him, and is used to control his snare whips, giving them strong gripping power and accuracy.
Megnete Dirigere- Creates a strong magnetic field that diverts affected objects away from Beck, around to his back and behind him. Impressive defense against metallic projectiles, but this spell also leaves Beck's whips at his back, leaving his front open to other types of assault.
Megnete Infagottare- Creates a magnetic field that draws all of Beck's whips into a woven hemisphere about him, which he can then make close and trap incoming attacks, forming a strong defense that is dangerous to approach.

Skill(s): Fair insight into what others think, fairly good at distinguishing when a person lies. Useful in combat against people he knows.
Personality: Beck is somewhat wild, having given up his life with family at a fairly young age. While he loved the lands in autumne, he gave up his home there to forget his all-too-simple past. He's rather irritable and takes offense when people bother him, whether they know better or not. He's grown away from understanding the pain of others, and is self-centered on his own success.
Ambition(s): He is as of yet unaware. Aspirations should be short and of the present; an exciting life is all he seeks.
Preference(s): Likes: simplicity, meat, good food, cool weather, challenge, struggle, and cities. Dislikes: complex beliefs, smart women, quiet, and people who think they're morally right.
Appearance: Tall, at 6' 1", Beck has somewhat wild short hair he doesn't take care of more than necessary. He'd cut it, but hates to do it himself and hates to let others cut it even more. He has dull green eyes, and a straight, angular, clean-shaven face. His figure is not much stronger than an effective farmhand, but suits itself better to fighting, and is thin, yet muscular. He rarely loses at fights, even against those much heavier, simply because of how surprisingly strong he can be when he is in a brawl.
Role: Party Member of the death merchants.
Background: Originally, his parents hoped he would study magic, but after a few years, he grew bored of text and practice and became too restless to continue wasting effort on. He appeased them by simply making a decent amount of money as a farm hand, but he plotted plans for the future without telling them, and one day, staged a disappearance, changed how he looked, and vanished from the town forever. Since then, he's tried to root himself to different areas as a mercenary, but bad employment has led to him being driven to various places, always further from his home than the last.

===============================================

Name: Christoph Czerell
Codename: N/A- this character will not be a death merchant.
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual, married
Species: Human
Nationality: Zotta
Class: Barricader
Job: Employed in the Zutan government, works in the military when called for. (Of respectable standing comparable to an experienced knight)

Weapon(s): A small short sword that is employed for working tasks but can be used as a weapon, in the hands of someone more physically competent. Christoph also carries a large wooden staff that would appear to be fitted with a gem at the top, but merely has empty space. He finds himself using this more for long journeys forced for travel on foot, (where he would normally ride a horse, if at all possible,) but will occasionally use it as a medium in his magic, particularly when dabbling in tractus spells.
Armor/Clothes: Without the dexterity to carry heavier armor, Christoph wears but the bare minimum under his ordinary clothes; a thin, weak shirt of loose chain mail across his torso that projects him from, at most, being stabbed in a surprise attack. His figure may crumple from the blow, however. This armor means almost nothing against a clean strike from a more standard weapon.

Magic Discipline(s): Runic Barriers, limited Tractus(Space)
Spell(s):
-Shield: A barrier spell that is cast to a specific person, and then maintains fixed shape and moves with the target. Thus, when cast to stay a foot away from a section of the target's arm, it will hover that distance from them whether they move or not. This shield is strongest at blocking magical attacks, but serves well for blocking physical attacks as well. The shield has no weight and thus does not cause adverse effects for the user, except perhaps an obstruction to their own attacks. The shield may grow weaker if the person "carrying" the shield moves far from the caster, and may also diminish over time.
-Barrier: Traditional barrier. These can be cast in varying strengths, sizes, and shapes, and can be further manipulated by the caster once created. They can be moved by the caster, and thrown about as on offense (but will never be sharp, and do not pierce,) and compressed, if forced, to crush inwards on objects. The barriers will break before moving outside of the caster's will, but can be overpowered. Thus, experience has taught Christoph to give his barriers room to move if he fears them being overwhelmed.
-Divide: Tractus magic of an impressive degree. While traditionally barriers are runic magic, by expanding his horizons, Cristoph came to the strongest defense, a barrier of tractus magic. It can only be considered in the sense that it prevents things to pass a certain point; but as Tractus magic manipulates space, this "barrier" does not simply press energy together in a dense packet to repel attacks, but rather divides space on one side from the other; the fabric of space bends and creates a hole in the shape desired, and thus, there is not something that can be "broken" in the traditional sense that barriers can be overwhelmed. The spell is intense, and is thus quite inflexible, essentially impossible to move once generated, or to alter the shape of. Thus, Christoph is forced to use this only as a defense, and only when protecting something is of the utmost importance.
Skill(s): While Christoph is physically weak, even by standards of the average working man, he is decently intelligent to make up for it, and is good at solving problems with an open mind, discovering solutions often overlooked by smarter people constraining their options too much. He is also well-mannered, and tends to never make enemies outside of when he is demanded to in work.
Ambition(s): To continue supporting his family, hopefully earning a steady enough pay on leave to return home to them more often, and have a child, as the first he would have had was sadly stillborn.
Preference(s): Likes mild food, fruit, calm people, the country, peace, justice. Dislikes alcohol, crowded areas, loud sustained noise, those obsessed in "personal" values, inconsideration of others, and recklessness.
Appearance: Only 5' 8", Christoph is short and unimposing, and has narrow shoulders. Indeed, aggressive people would often think to walk over such a small man without a second thought if his garb didn't show off his high status. Wearing fantastic white boots assembled in a military fashion, Christoph's deep blue pants and coat are embroidered with silver fabric, and has a diamond button at the neck. The pattern shifts across the right arm up to the shoulder, with a similarly brilliant red pattern trimmed with gold. His blonde hair is fine and only somewhat long, looking less like it would be worn long and more like short hair in need of a cut.
Background: ((There's a lot of info in here already, really. If there's something I need to put for importance later, I will.))

Role: Party Member, Ally
Background: As he was abandoned as a child, he was adopted by kind farmers, despite being a demon. They taught him that kindness can extend across any racial or species barrier. Due to a tragic fire caused by an overturned lantern, he was blinded when he tripped onto a sharp projection, poking out his eyes. Both of his adopted parents were separated from him during the incident. The townspeople ran him out of town, thinking he had caused the fire. He is still searching for them today.

Yay, we have 10 party members signed up. Hopefully two more will join to make a good even team of 12. Otherwise Very Hard Mode will be unplayable. Yes, there are different modes of difficulty planned out. Based on the party's decision, the events of the story will play out, as well as the final boss fights. With a 12 man team, the option for a Very Hard Mode is available. Very Hard Mode has an expanded ending, but the cost is high. Our party will largely remain under "leveled" throughout the game. Thus, ally units like Cloak and stronger party members like Daisy may be abused in order to merely survive. I'm warning everyone now to let you all start thinking about your choices.

Now, I have finished the next map. Up next is Autumne, the land of eternal fall.

Weapon(s): 4 magical guns, Omicron and Epsilon, 2 Black and white Handguns in the Semi-auto pistol style.(note:styles mostly pertain to the look and shape of the gun only, as that kind of technology isnt created yet)
Alastor and Gae Bolg, 2 larger handguns in the style of Desert Eagles, Alastor with engravings of black flames on it, and Gae Bolg with white lightening. Much More powerful, but slower shots compared to Omicron and Epsilon
All four guns are insribed with Spells of lightness(for ease of movement)and many of Sturdiness, making them more than capable of blocking sword blows without nicking or breaking.
Details: To be frank, the Guns are such in name only, as though they work on the same basic principles, they function entirely different. The Grip of each syphons mana from the weilder into the stock, which contains cartidges filled with an alchemic fluid that absorbs and holds said mana. pulling the trigger move an amount of the mana fueled fluid from the stock into the barrel,wich has been treated to be conducive of magic and inscribed with Five series of Runes. the first series, which is where the hammer is is a weak force rune to push the liquid though the barrel. The second is a spell selector, changing the mana in the liquid into a spell determined by the will of the weilder.the third series is of amplifiers, increasing the strength and power of the spell. The Fourth Solidifies the spell, making it a solid "shell" of magic in a long spiral shape. The fifth and last series is of Accelorators, Speeding the Shell out of the barrel at bullet speeds.
Armor/Clothes: Wears A Long Azure and grey longcoat with high collar that nearly hides his mouth, a cylindrical shaped cap, and high black boots. The jacket is inscribed to create a alternate pocket space on the inside, so that he can keep his guns, tools and any number of other items inside regardless of size and weight, without transferring either to the outside. Underneath the Coat, He wears a pair of standard length grey pants, and a tight black shirt. Attached Over his right eye is an obviously Magical long paper seal which he keeps on at all times and refuses to talk about.
Magic Discipline(s):Alchemy, Inscription
Spirits: ???
Spell(s): (Animus Shot):Most basic magic bullet in Toro's arsenal. it's simply a shot charged with either one of the first or secondary elements of animus magic. effects are straight-forward, fire burns, ice freezes, etc. On that note, sand scatters and blinds and Nature grows things.
(Essence bomb): A shot of un-aligned magical energy, that explodes on contact. The Omicron and Epsilon versions of this spell are quite different from the Alastor and Gae Bolg version, in scope at least.

(Radial):The result of Toro's mediocre understanding of Space magic. Fires shots capable of changing direction in mid flight up to 5 times.

(Radiant Field) a burst of Radials that sacrifice longevity for magnitude by creating a swarm of bullets that swarm around him in a small field, riddling anything that comes close.

(Magus): Shot that bursts bullets in midair or on a surface to create a Magic amplyfying circle.

(Dragon Slayer):*classified*

(and thats what i feel like posting now.)
Skill(s): Inhuman eyesight and reaction time, able to follow and react to things moving at speeds normal people wouldnt even be able to see.Uncommon magical knowledge due to his tutelage.

Preference(s): Likes: progress, intelligent conversation, quality, and strong women.
Dislikes: Backwards thinking, braggarts, Shoddy work, alcohol.
Appearance: Has a rather dusky complexion, with short lank brown hair. His eye is a hazy green in color, about 6 foot 8 in height, and rather in shape. It's barely noticiable, but his arms and legs are somewhat long compared to his height.
Role: Party Member
Background: The Weston Family have been alchemists, mages and Blacksmiths as far back as anyone can remeber, specializing in magical weapons. Their name was synonomous with quality and and genius for so long that many noble families to this day still pass down weapons made by them from generation to generation.
Toro grew up in his fathers small branch smithy, Learning the ins and outs of the makings of magical weapons since he was old enough to watch, along with his older brother, 2 years his senior, his mother having died shortly after childbirth. When each of them turned twelve, their father sent them to study at the Academy in Biblos with a freind of his, so they might improve, and bring new knowledge to the trade. for 5 years toro studied there, and when he left, he was considered a genius, second only to his brother ebfore him in alchemy study and inscription.
However, with the modern turn weapons were taking, demand for the Westons brand of specially made and superior customs began to give way for the mass produced guns other companies were making, and try as they might to adapt, buisness continued to dwindle.
Shortly after Toro returned from the academy, His father was Found murdered, and toro was discovered in the smithy, one eye, his arms, and several of his internal organs seemingly badly mutilated. His brother was missing.
The details of the incident are still known only within the Weston family, and Toro refuses to talk about it. He made a miraculous recovery in less than a year, but then bastioned himself into the smithy, and only made trips outside to deliver orders, looking deshiveled and weary, and in fact his customers so progress in the weapons produced , and the ingenious revelatinons in their design caused somewhat of a stir in the community.
Two years after the incident, Toro sold the family smithy and Left, looking considerably more fit and determined than he had two years ago, with Omicron and Epsilon at his side and the experimental Gae bolg and Alastor.
Little known fact: because of his savings of profits during the two years after the incident, the exorbinant price Magical weapons go for, his inheritance from his fathers passing, his fathers savings, and the saleof the smithy and the backlog of weaponry, it is a little known fact that toro doesnt really need to be a bounty hunter, as he is very VERY independantly wealthy.

Shit lemme guess. I can't join this now, can I?

We have one party member slot open.

SEMI-IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Ahem, as in the last RP I've got swords to pawn off again so I might as well go ahead and get that started.

Right, well there are currently four swords who need somone to take control of them. If you think you would like to control one of these swords then by all means either post here or contact me via some form of messanger. Any swords that go unclaimed until the time at which I have designated them to be 'found' I will make a character for. With that said I expect those that do wish to control one of the four remaining swords to show a certain degree of RP capability. Make sure to chose the sword you want carefully and for the love of God don't pick one thats already been found, Kiori and Andari, that will be grounds for me to just dismiss you from this little contest. Thats all I have for now, see me about any further questions you have about the sword you had in mind and we'll get that settled. Enjoy.

I thought you were going to divide getting all of the swords between both RPs. I innitially thought you were going to get two swords in DoB and another two in MR.

Yes, thank you for pointing that out, Clix. Sorry I forgot that little detail. Either way Clix is right, there will be two swords given out in this RP and two more given out in the next. If you know your going to be in the next RP then by all means sign on for a sword.

As a note, you can start viewing another character of mine, Cristoph, in my last post on the previous page, just below Beck's profile.

In other news, you need to remember to use codenames in-character Bolts. Don't call me Beck, or even Drift, since Riku hasn't heard his name yet. D=

Name: Chancellor Dionysus Solus
Age: 40 (physically) [around 2000-something]
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Species: Human
Nationality: Solus, Autumne
Class: Necromancer
Job: Chancellor of Solus, leader of the Vampire Hunters
Weapon(s): A large scythe
Armor/Clothes: He wears black garbs that are remeniscent of the ancient sorceror robes from thousands of years ago.
Magic Discipline(s): Necromancy
Spell(s): Spectre Legio (controls dead soldiers in a battlefield), Final Reich (controls thousands of dead bodies (generally weak on the individual level)), Chosen Titan (controls and enhances one target corpse), Celestial Flare (cuts either his arms or legs, drawing the blood onto the blade of the scythe. He spins the scythe to form a sphere of death mana that can be volleyed at a target), Lunar Ray (flicks a drop of blood at a target to create a tiny death mana projectile), Serpantine Pathogen (Any blood spilt on an enemy can be used as a destructive disease that spreads across the target), and Rosen Coffin (causing extremely bodily damage to himself in exchange for creating the ultimate shockwave that can negate all spirits/spells and incinerate those that touch it)
Skill(s): Millenniums of using necromancy has made him generally immune to feeling pain. Despite his body size, he's pretty skilled with the scythe.
Personality: He is very cool and withdrawn. He was once a bitter man, living for 2000 years in absolute discontempt. However, since finally becoming mortal again, he has worked hard to reform his personality. While he is no longer short-tempered, he still has a hard time using warmer emotions, but he has worked up to using moderate/cool emotions. Because of the horrors he has lived through, he is extremely jaded to the revile and grotesque.
Romance(s): Yuki Solus (his wife)
Ambition(s): He dreams to honor his heritage and keep Solus thriving. However, since becoming a father, he also dreams of his children's future, and thus everything he does is to make that future the best it could ever be.
Preference(s): He likes finer wines (but he is not an alcoholic [drinks a small glass at dinner]), he love his family, he enjoys combining the world of the old with the world of the new, and he enjoys puzzles. He hates naggers and other such annoying people, and he dislikes old memories. He's tolerant of the lower class.
Appearance: He is a frail looking man with aging hair. His body is in good shape, but his overall frame is very thin. He is about 5'6", which is now small (was once pretty tall). His hair is a waxy, springy bundle of curls that fall loosely over his head. He has them cut of about the bottom part of his cheeks. The black curls have started to turn gray in some places. His eyes are a dull brown that continue vitality as well as a great tiredness.
Role: Ally
Background: He is the bastard son of the Archsage Zeus Solus and grandson of the Archsage Chronus Solus. He is actually a unique magician himself, but it is not because of his blood heritage. He grew up in the Endless Wars, where necromancy was used to lead Autumne to victory against Zotta. However, over the centuries of peace, necromancy fell out of practice. The fire of 432 destroyed part of the Braisen Library, and all written knowledge of necromancy was lost. Thus, except for embedlings, Dionysus alone knows necromancy.
He came to be immortal in a misspell by his friend and adoptive sister Ariadne. At a life-and-death point, Dionysus was revived but bound to Ariadne. They shared the same body, and he would take control of the body at night. The body would actually restructure itself to his old body. The two spent millenniums looking for a cure. Finally, 22 years ago, they finally found magicryst (anti-magic ruby), and they broke their immortality. However, both of them were slain soon after in the Allanan Maidens Kidnapping Incident. With her last breath, Ariadne again revived Dionysus, this time successfully.
With his life once more restored, Dionysus was left alone in the world for the first time in 2000 years. He was originally depressed and suicidal, but he came to accept Ariadne's wish. He wondered around, learning that there was a hit on him by the Ashcrofts. Ultimately, he joined Yuki Kuroda and company in order to save Yuki's friend and solve the mystery around Hehmana, a key figure in the Allanan Maidens Kidnapping. During the course of their journey, he found Solus in ruin from Hehmana's villainy. Once Hehmana and the other events were sorted out, Dionysus returned to Solus and began a restoration project. He opened the city up for the first time in 1700 years, and under his rule the city thrives. About ten years ago, he married Yuki and currently has two sons and one daughter.

Name: Yuki Solus
Age: 33
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Species: Vampire (was an onihi)
Nationality: Shimahi, Zotta
Class: Fighter
Job: Celebrated Writer, Member of the Vampire Hunters
Weapon(s): Her body
Armor/Clothes: She wears a white tunic that doubles as a mini-skirt. For battle, she wears some tight white pants under her tunic. They don't provide protection, only comfort. To keep herself light, she wears no real armor.
Magic Discipline(s): None
Spell(s): None
Skill(s): She is a master of close-combat. Because of her dwarven heritage and vampiric powers, her punch can shatter solid rock into dust. Despite her sex, she is stronger than adult, male vampiric lords and rivals the raw force of a dragon. Growing up alone and in the wild led to her developing a unique fighting style that specializes in hard-hitting, critical blows. Because of her height disadvantage, she developed strong leg work to allow her to jump five times her height with ease. Thus, she can instantly jump up and punch a man in the face for an instant K.O. Also, because of her naturally light body and lack of heavy armor or weaponry, she is able to achieve an almost airborn-like status when fighting. This grants her a mastery of the battlefield, as she can fight swiftly through the air and on the ground with no waste for augmenting magic or wind magic.
Personality: She is a very sweet woman, though there is much more to her than such a shallow persona. She is a free-thinker that periodically observes and meditates about her environment and the many natural metaphores of life. Her upbeat outlook in dem situations is a natural trait she developed to deal with her own traumatic childhood.
Romance(s): Dionysus Solus (her husband)
Ambition(s): She shares her husband's dream to make a perfect future for their children. She also works hard to support her husband's dream to revive Solus. Her own personal dream is to see a liberated Shimahi, which she considers possible because of the war.
Preference(s): She has a strong affinity for the blood of smaller animals (something carried over from childhood). She also likes children, and she is a proponant for charity work. She loves nature, even during disasters. She has little hate for the world, except for those that bring harm to innocent people. Despite her history with the Heinlein Clan, she actually does not hate vampires.
Appearance: She is a very small woman because of her race. She stands at only 4 feet tall. However, her mature, warm face allows her to never look like a child. Her body is very strong and semi-muscular (especially her calves and arms). Her hair is very long and wavy in a beautiful shade icy blue (which is also her eye color). Her choice of white clothing, her naturally light skin, and her icy features fashion her like a small ice spirit that haunts places too beautiful for those that can commit sin.
Role: Ally
Background: She was born in a village near Machihi. Her early childhood was realitively uneventful. She was the daughter of a successful wine-maker, who specialized in a wine made from Shimahi's hikinomi, better known as Winter's Fruit. When she was only six years old, a group of teenage vampires attacked her village and brutally killed the villagers for sport. Because the Heinlein Clan forbid subjects from learning the arts of war, the village was defenseless. She was one of the villagers fed on by the boys. When fed on without consent, the victim has a small chance to become a vampire. Against the low odds, she survived and became a vampire.
After years of traveling alone, she finally met a boy at the age of thirteen that would travel with her. The boy's name was Sven Reinhardt, and she became tied into the boy's quest to 'save Autumne.' Sven was ultimately kidnapped, and she was left in charge. She recruited several men to her cause to both stop Hehmana and rescue Sven, and she came to realize hidden truths about the workings of fate and nature.
After saving Sven and defeating Hehmana and Crystal, she decided to help Dionysus revive Solus. Over the years, working beside Dionysus, she fell in love with him and later married him. Together they started a family, but that was not the epidome of her life. She became an important writer that developed a new theme of literature that centered on the analysis of emotion and the inner workings of the universe. Her emphasis on nature and the human nature of fate made her writings popular among the learned, attracting a strong intellectual community to the new Solus.

Appearance: He looks like a vampire in many regards. While he does not have the teeth, he does have the stereotypical fashion allied with the race. His hair is long, greesy black, stretching to his shoulders. His eyes are an erie green. His pale complection is not so much because of his race as that he always wears the hat, preventing a tan. His is of an average muscular build. He stands at about 5'9".
Role: Ally
Background: He was born through rape. His mother, already married at the time, was attacked by a gang of vampiric children. The group's leader, who was about thirteen, raped the woman 'for fun'. Ultimately, Ms. Juliani became pregnant and gave birth to Amette. Ms. Juliani and her husband could never stand the child, and the village was equally cruel. To save himself, Amette discarded his emotions.
As an adult, Amette found the work of an underground killer to be all he could do. He vowwed to continue his work ethic developed on his childhood farm: He would never give up until the job was complete. He also adopted the idea of working for anyone that was willing to hire. He became the top professional of the underworld, and this gained him fear and respect.
He ultimately was hired by Sven Reinhardt in order to end the curse of Autumne. While others would consider it a joke, Amette took the job. Even after Sven was kidnapped, Amette continued to travel with Yuki. While he never really opened up, he did finally find a friend in Yuki, who was the first person to ever express interest in his life. When the Autumne Crisis was resolved, he returned to his old profession, though he would sporadically show up in Solus to have dinner with the Solus family.

Magic Discipline(s): None
Spell(s): None
Skill(s): He is a skilled swordsman, specializing in a middle-ground between Amette and Yuki's fighting styles. For an elf, he is extremely strong. After years of training, he achieved the natural strength of a vampire. He is also very nimble, but his armor and sword weigh him down a little bit. Thus, he does not possess the same speed as Amette, but his greater brute strength and weapon's size balances out the lost of speed.

Romance(s): None

Appearance: Leno is about 6'0", fitting his rank. His eyes are naturally pointed, and his eyes are a rich brown. His hair is short and blond. His build is extremely muscular though he is not bulky (thus fitting another sort of middle-ground).
Role: Ally
Background: He was raised as the tenth heir to the Pulaski throne. His low position in the family condemned him to live a life just a step above that of a commoner. He recieved no praise, no education, and no servants. However, his oldest sister, Liliana, took pity on the boy. She tried to educate Leno, but Leno found learning to be something he could not stand. Soon, he found the blade, and his destiny was decided.
When only still a boy, he left his home to become a mercenary. Soon into his new career, he was hired by Dionysus and Yuki. Shortly, Leno dragged his sister into the Autumne Crisis as well. The two traveled with the group, and they helped resolve the crisis. Upon Liliana's request, Leno joined the military after the crisis. His talent helped his rise a few ranks shortly. However, to reach general, he had to spend hours a day, sometimes entire days, training and studying in order to become both a perfect soldier and strategist.

Skill(s): She has perfected the art of silent spell. Basically, years of constant practicing have allowed her to cast spells without saying their name, and she has practiced for so long that there is no lose in power when doing so.
Personality: She is a very level-headed woman. She is gentle, yet very wise. She does not ask for respect, but her peaceful--yet powerful--aura automatically gains respect.
Romance(s): Duke Ronan Oaks of Macon (lover)

Role: Ally
Background: She was born as the heir to the Pulaski throne. From birth, she was raised to lead. She was well-taught, especially in magic. At a young age, she became a gifted mage, and she became a full-fledge sage in her mid-twenties. Despite her high birth, she has always held a strong heart for others. She always sought to help those around her, including her youngest brother.
She became involved in the Hehmana plot twenty years ago. She was approached by her lover Ronan Oaks to join Hehmana. She was reluctant, so she skillfully negotiated a tiral period for her to decide. Right when time was nearly out, she met Yuki's group, and she escaped with the group to oppose Hehmana. She ultimately realized the true danger of Hehmana, and she came to see that her lover was wicked. When Hehmana did fall, she spent years trying to "save" Ronan, though the two eventually went their own ways once more when they became duke and duchess of their provinces.

Ok.
1. Your class would be Animus Mage.
2. For magic, you'd have just Primary Elements plus (I guess) either Time or Space (pick one, since you indicated Tractus).
3. ...Your spells are pretty poorly drawn out. For example, Animus magic can't be used to heal. Plus, some of the names lack any fanciness. Fireball and Whirlwind are fine, but more creative names (as well as reworking their purposes) would be nice. Also, since you are a mage, you should add water magic as well. You can also add in the spell Animus. Finally, as your 2nd discipline, you can add in some Tractus magic. There are some examples of Tractus magic in some of the other profiles if you'd like to get some ideals. Likewise, if you'd like to expand your Animus spells, you could look over Matsu Kai (top of page 2).

Please tell me this works!

....Hey... uh, maybe you'd be more interested in another type of class?

I'm sorry... but you're making the magic section... unbelievably complicated...

Guh

Fine I'll take somthing else

Ok, finally something very workable. I approve of this profile. The only real change is class. I'd personally say Vagrant would be a better-sounding class than "Sneaker." Other than that, welcome.

Oi, Tahu. Just to let you know, if your going to make a purely OOC post then do it here and not in the actual RP. It'll get answered just as quickly if not faster and won't clutter up the events at hand.

- The answer to your question by the way is yes, they're all just standing there. Well technically Katsu and Riku are walking down the street about 10 feet away from them and waiting to see if Kunoichi's going to follow them or take the others to a hotel.

I'll wait a while before posting then because I'm going away all weekend so i won't be able to follow up on anything

BTW... Bolts... We need to travel by land. You see, that's how we'll do the sidequests. ...That almost means we need someone to maybe come up with something for us to deal with. Otherwise... I'll create a senario...

I was expecting we'd be traveling by land. Thats why I had horses in mind. Of course I could always make it interesting and make them pack mules.....
