The Phoenix League [OOC/Low Fantasy/Semi-Sandbox/OPEN]

[Doughertania]

WIP

Character App

Name: Ryker Celtigar

Age: Hard to say, but probably early Thirties

Bloodline: Alchemite

Gender, Sex, and Sexuality: Male, Masculine, Hetro

Personality: (how they interact with others, are they outgoing, are they trusting, are they quick to anger, are they ruled by passion or logic, etc.)

Skills: From his background as a nobleman, he still.

Of

Powers: Ryker's mutation is telekinesis.

Weaknesses Ryker is confident to a fault. Between his armor, his training, and his alchemite enhancements, he firmly believes that nothing can stand in his way. This has led him to get into situations that exploit his main physical weakness: entrapment. All the armor in the world will do nothing to those thrown in an unscalable pit or the ocean's depths. In fact, this is how he died in the first place, being trapped in a cave he could escape from. In addition, the Promethean Elixir used to create him was incredible concentrated, leaving his with horrible scaring throughout his body, which is why he constantly wears the white mask. Between that and his bulk, it is hard for him to masquerade as anyone but himself.

Faction: Phoenix League

Occupation: Monster Slayer, provides insight into Eisen nobility for diplomatic missions, provides any extra muscle needed for the League

Bio: (at least a paragraph. Please include where you're from, what you did before the league, how you died, why you stayed, how long you've been a member, and anything else relevant to your character. You can expand it in the IC, but I want at least these points addressed) Emil

Character Story: (different from your bio. This is your characters goal in life. If they were the main character in a novel, this would be what their arc would be about. Things like self improvement, finding a cause, or revenge works here.)

Equipment, Weapons, and Vehicles: Being an Eisen nobleman, he had access to a full set of dracheneise armor. Lighter and stronger than steel, it is known to deflect bullets with ease. Primarily, Ryker fights with his bastard sword and panzerhand, following the Eisenfaust Swordsman school.

Likes and Dislikes:

RP example: I know me, so I'll pass

[Nea Videssos]

Maybe some references to (or inspiration from) individuals like Ezellino da Romano would be appropriate too.

A guy like that sounds fitting to be the head of the family - and my character's father.

Also, hey! A fellow sick and disgusting degenerate (/s) who was deleted! I'm not alone!

Indeed.

Wait, I made an ASoIaF reference without knowing it? Where?

[Yuzhou]

Eisenfaust is an incredibly cool style. Probably doesn't help that the picture for it in the PDF emits much badassery.

Btw, thanks ya'll for reminding me that I haven't seen a single episode of the new season.

As for my character, I was going to use overconfidence as one of his flaws. Probably still will, though let it be documented my intention was not to mooch off of Doc -Holiday- here. Our characters are certainly more different than similar though, you'll see

[Zyvalia]

Never mind, guess I'm not watching Game of Thrones. Every channel but it is working

THANKS DISH ;~;

Well, back to making my app.

Yeah it is pretty great.

And I don't mind people having similar things, so long as there's enough difference between them. Ryker is basically a witcher, so just don't make your character an alchemite who by all accounts should have died from the Elixir process and we'll probably be fine.

No one copy the spear-using pyromancer archetype and we'll be good too.

[Free Empire of the Low Isles]

Character App

Name: Abu-Bakr Mazin Mikhail

Age: 27

Bloodline: Human (Crescent)

Gender, Sex, and Sexuality: Male, Male, Asexual (Just doesn't really care... for now...)

Personality: Mazin is a man of an extremely controlled temper, and hardly ever shows emotion. He does not assert himself, but neither is he a man that can be easily cowed into submission. Logic, science, and a righteous sense of morals guide him throw life and daily interactions. The alchemist views flirtatious behavior and unnecessary conversation as, well, unnecessary. He may act cold on the outside, and unapproachable, but once you have his trust and friendship, he is... slightly more willing to talk, and is known to show some wit.

Skills: He is decent with a sword, particularly the crescent blade his people are fond of, as well as a unique form of boxing that the Corsairs teach. He knows how to navigate by the stars, due to being a navigator and alchemist aboard a ship for most of his life. And, he knows a decent amount of alchemy for one of his age. Nothing spectacular, like a Promethean Elixir, but he can heal and poison with the best of them.

Powers: Alchemy?

Weaknesses Mazin, personality wise, is a very secluded person and is not friendly in the slightest, meaning that making friends and allies for him is very difficult. Physically, the wound from which he nearly died from still afflicts him, giving a slight (yet perceptible) limp. There is a scar around his neck, encircling entirely around, which could be from slave shackles... or a beheading. This means it's slightly easier to open his skin around that area.

Faction: Phoenix League

Occupation: Alchemist, Cook, Crescent Relations (Not an official diplomat or anything, just if needed on a mission), Ship Navigator (If needed)

Bio: Kheired-Din. A name that inspires fear all along the coasts of Theah. A man who has killed hundreds, if not thousands, personally. A devout follower of the Church of the Second Prophet. A corsair with honor among his own men. A slaver of many. A man with secrets.

And the murderer of one Abu-Bakr Mazin Mikhail.

Mazin was born on one of the islands in the Crescent Empire, in the western chain. His parents were traders who frequented the ports of Cathay and Vodacce, buying and selling rare alchemical reagents to make a large profit. This was, of course, dangerous. Many people lusted after those ingredients, be they alchemist or noble with an alchemist in their employ. Many pirates knew this as well, and lusted after those ships that carried such cargo. Needless to say, Mazin's parents knew how to handle themselves, due to their dangerous cargo. Mazin's father was a mage of dubious power, his magic mired in secrets and foggy recollections. No one knew how he fought, only that he could and it was not a good idea to try. Mazin's mother was an alchemist, the one who knew what reagents to buy, where to sell them, who to sell them to... and when to keep the best ones for themselves. Mazin, himself, studied under both his parents, learning the alchemy of his mother and the useful skills of his father.

It was a bright, sunny day on the ocean when Mazin's happy life came to an end. Seven sails appeared on the horizon, sails of the galleys favorited by corsairs. Sails of pirates come to raid and plunder and take slaves.

Mazin's father was asleep that day, having been up all night guiding the ship through a horrible storm, and that left his son in charge of the sailing. Mazin was sixteen, and rather adept at sailing the ship, at least on bright days like this one. Sadly, he was not adept at combat.

Long fight short, the corsairs boarded the trading vessel and killed half the crew, including Mazin's father while he was sleeping, and took the other half as slaves. Mazin and his mother were taken before the leader of the corsairs to plead their case, and his mother was allowed to become a ship's alchemist aboard a galley.

Mazin was to be the navigator and ship's boy of Kheired-Din.

For the next eleven years, Mazin served under the zealous pirate as a slave, never once having any true rest or recognition. He did his best, and was spat upon for it. He was lucky, as well, that he wasn't... sodomized in the frenzy that the corsairs got into. Eventually, he moved from ship's boy to ship's alchemist, replacing the one that died in a fight with some Castillians. He was liked by the crew because of this, but not well enough to be treated any differently. He was a slave, after all.

For reasons unknown, and reasons that Mazin won't talk about, Kheired-Din saw fit to kill him. The alchemist was paraded on the deck of the Corsair's flagship, and had his head taken from him.

And then he woke up in the Citadel.

Character Story: Mazin's goal is to kill Kheired-Din, find his mother, and eventually live the life that was taken from him. Be that with or without someone other person, be that helping the League or trading herbs, he does not know.

Equipment, Weapons, and Vehicles: Some typical Crescent robes that are neither fine nor poor, and look in decent condition. He has a belt with several pouches designed to hold reagents and ingredients, as well as potions, acids, and poisons. He carries a satchel that holds several useful things, like books, paper, rope, and a small bed roll. He also own an obviously well-used yet well-taken care of crescent sword, which he keeps on his belt. No vehicles, but owning a boat does appeal to him.

Likes and Dislikes: Mazin dislikes most, if not every, religion, especially the Church of the Second Prophet. Corsairs and other pirates are a target of a particularly strong sense of ire, as well as those who discriminate against alchemites and other races. He likes, surprisingly, Cathayan people, and views them as mysterious and intriguing. Secondly, he like sweet things and anything alchemical, as one gives him enjoyment and the other is useful to him. Mazin looks at alchemites as typical people, no different than him or some other human, and does not like anyone who views them differently. Mages he views as... typically untrustworthy and dangerous, though that does not mean he can't get along with them.

Eh... I forced myself to write the bio. Sorry it's not so good...

[Galnius]

My question was never answered What is Wales called?

It's not.

Well it most certainly exists.

Not in the Seventh Sea.

Go look at the map...

Tagggg

[Yuzhou]

Eh... I forced myself to write the bio. Sorry it's not so good...

Bios can be tricky. Sometimes you want something to make a character standout. Sometimes your ideas are a bit cliche but fitting for your character. A lot of the times you have only a vague idea about the character itself, and need time and context to develop them further.

Go look at the map...

Actually..it seems to be part of Avalon, specifically the Avalon island. Answered my question though.

[The Warriors of the Sun]

I haven't been able to find anything on the wiki on it, but is slavery a thing in this world? Based on the lack of mention I am assuming no, but if so I would like to incorporate it into my character's bio.

Are we speaking OOC or IC? And with what? I am officially curious.
