Therefore ship, cos ship.

W.I.P.

Character App


Image


Name: Violet Heart

Age: Around 22

Bloodline: Alchemite

Gender, Sex, and Sexuality: Female, Female, Unknown.

Personality: Violet tends to be a generally happy and carefree person. She takes her safety into little consideration with most of her actions, prioritizing others above herself. For most people, gaining her trust can be easy.

Skills: (I am giving you guys a little freedom here, but do not go overboard, and explain anything too powerful)

Powers:
Teleportation - She uses this ability to her advantage on many occasions, or even just for her own amusement. It does eat away at her strength, though. If used to much, it can prove to be fatal.

Weaknesses (You need at least two, a physical one and a personality flaw. Must make sense with your backstory and powers, and if someone exploits it you must treat this as a weakness.)
Her greatest flaw is her lack of physical strength. While she may be decent in combat, she can have difficulty combating those bigger than her.



Faction: Phoenix League

Occupation: (what do you do 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)

Character Story:
To be honest, she doesn't really have a goal. She focus on having fun, and that alone. If something were to cease being entertaining, she would quickly lose interest. So, she mostly wants to cause as much mischief as possible and have plenty of fun while doing so.

Equipment, Weapons, and Vehicles: (don't go crazy, and if it's powerful/expensive you must have a good explanation why you have it)

Likes and Dislikes:(Please include their feeling about alchemites and mages)

RP example:(if I don't know you, please give me a direct link to a post your proud of. If you don't have one, write your death scene. If I know you, feel free to make a witty remark about how you don't need to)

Character App


Reference only. Without the hood he displays the effects of his transformation: Pitch black hair and beard, and eyes that turned into slits.

Name: Suleiman Ahmed Azhim

Age: 32

Bloodline: Alchemite

Gender, Sex, and Sexuality: Male, Male, Straight.

Personality:
His years as a sellsword left him with a remarkable taste for alcohol and parties. His passion is to discover new places and to enjoy life best as possible. While most of the alchemites tend to be known as stern, or excessively professional, he tends to mix both aspects: Professional when needed, and relaxed when the situation allows him to be.

Skills:

As a Crescentian tribesmen, he was raised in the combat tradition of the Atlar-vahir, specifically with the use of the saber or the scimitar, being proficient in the one-handed and the dual wielding variants equally. He's also a skilled knife thrower, and handles himself decently in a fist fight, and his years as a pirate gave him a good knowledge in acrobatics.

Powers:
Enhanced Reflexes and Enhanced Speed, as well as the ability to see even on the pitch black darkness.

Weaknesses
Unfortunately, he doesn't handle well with prejudice against alchemites and mages. Even in his years as a pirate, his opinion about them was the same about the humans: "First you must know them, then you maybe judge them.". He doesn't think the ground should be showered with flowers because they helped him, but he is a firm believer in equality.

Faction: Phoenix League

Occupation: Warrior, explorer

Bio:
Born in the Crescent Moon Empire, Suleiman would be known as a prodigy in his early years for uncommon intimacy with the blades and the warfare tactics that he learned at the time, as well showing the same level of intimacy with women (married or not) when he grew up, the main cause of his troubles.

As he grew up, the perfect soldier became a singular mix between bon vivant and warrior. At an undisclosed age (because he actually doesn't remember), he decided that he learned what he had to learn in the Empire, and so left his hometown.

After a year roaming, he joined the Kheired-Din's Corsairs as a Marine. The payment was excellent, and the job was better: It allowed him the thrill of the danger, to hone and show his skills in battle, and to know the world under a feared flag. He spent 6 years under the service of the corsairs, and after it, decided that he needed a change of "occupation".

He decided to enter the stealing business, using his experience of climbing the ship's structures to break in the houses of the most favored, and usually wiping the place of any valuables. His successful career even allowed him to take "contracts": A person would pay him to rob a specific thing of a specific person, and he could take the rest. It proved so rentable that he managed to go through the process of turning himself into an alchemite, and he was able to afford new equipment.

However, the end of his career would be when one of his contractors set him up, claiming that "alchemites were against the very law of nature itself". And so, they killed him, not even bothering to take anything he had with him, under the claim that it was "cursed".

To his surprise, he woke up at a Castle, and was given the choice to return to his old life or help a cause. Taking his death as a warning message, he decided to join the Phoenix League.


Character Story:
After years of piracy and robbery, he took his "death" as a warning message to change some of his ways. He wants to help the cause and to help the people, and also fight the prejudice that was the cause of his death. And maybe, just maybe, kill the person who set him up.

Equipment, Weapons, and Vehicles:
Saber (which he calls Promise, and might be enchanted in some way), a small knife, a set of throwing knives, his armor (in appearance), and a horse.

Likes and Dislikes:
He stands against those who act with prejudice towards mages and alchemites, and likes alcohol, a good story, a good feast, a good travel, and more recently, to fight the "good fight". He possesses a heavy dislike for any kind of prejudice, and towards those who enforce it in any way. Ironically, he has a particular lack of sympathy towards any religious cult.

RP example: So... Remember me? If not, I'll place an example here.

I believe that madness can find more madness, and that every ounce of madness has a spark of truth. And truth, as you know, has a way of depressing people who don't want to find it.

No one is 100% honest... We all keep 20% of the truth from the world, to protect ourselves & sometimes others.

Which makes him awesome. And he can only heal when you die, so the simple solution is to not die. :twisted:

He spent 6 years under the service of the corsairs, and after it, decided that he needed a change of "occupation".

He decided to enter the stealing business, using his experience of climbing the ship's structures to break in the houses of the most favored, and usually wiping the place of any valuables. His successful career even allowed him to take "contracts": A person would pay him to rob a specific thing of a specific person, and he could take the rest. It proved so rentable that he managed to go through the process of turning himself into an alchemite, and he was able to afford new equipment.

However, the end of his career would be when one of his contractors set him up, claiming that "alchemites were against the very law of nature itself". And so, they killed him, not even bothering to take anything he had with him, under the claim that it was "cursed".

To his surprise, he woke up at a Castle, and was given the choice to return to his old life or help a cause. Taking his death as a warning message, he decided to join the Phoenix League.


Character Story:
After years of piracy and robbery, he took his "death" as a warning message to change some of his ways. He wants to help the cause and to help the people, and also fight the prejudice that was the cause of his death. And maybe, just maybe, kill the person who set him up.

Equipment, Weapons, and Vehicles:
Saber (which he calls Promise, and might be enchanted in some way), a small knife, a set of throwing knives, his armor (in appearance), and a horse.

Likes and Dislikes:
He stands against those who act with prejudice towards mages and alchemites, and likes alcohol, a good story, a good feast, a good travel, and more recently, to fight the "good fight". He possesses a heavy dislike for any kind of prejudice, and towards those who enforce it in any way. Ironically, he has a particular lack of sympathy towards any religious cult.

RP example: So... Remember me? If not, I'll place an example here.


So... another Crescent appears.
