Anyone in the caravan group got thoughts on an interaction during the fight per chance? Or should we just keep posting independently for now?

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

Sort of am curious if there's a way for me to collab with someone else in the fight scene or if that would even be preferable atm

[Solisian Union]

Would be nice for someone to interact with my Arialista

[Solisian Union]

is my Sieglind Datarrok accepted yet?

[The Empire of Tau]

Well, um, I gonna left this rp.

[Absolon-7]

Name: Sieglind Datarrok

Well I have a question about what that giant fire is in the middle of the desert is as its not specified. Do you mean the fire the dragons gave to humans cause thats supposed to be in a city and people jumping into it is just lore on how pyromancy started and not something that happens anymore. Secondly i don't see how she could be have desert adaptions if she has no ancestry there seeing as she's just the child of migrants to the desert environment. For limitations i'd like something more specific for what her magic can and cant do. Finally since she logically wouldn't have desert adaptions she wouldn't have desert limitations.

[Solisian Union]

Thanks for the feedback abs! I'll be sure to edit it.

[Solisian Union]

Name: Sieglind Datarrok
Age: 25
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Appearance (pics if possible): https://i.pinimg.com/originals/7c/4b/b7 ... 7011a7.jpg
Statistics:
Strength: 2
Agility: 3
Endurance: 3
Magical Prowess: 4
Bio: Sieglind was not originally from the land of the flames and deserts and skies. She instead hailed from the land of her parents, the place called the Heartlands. So why did such a young girl find her way and place in the Southern Desert? Talk to her parents. They chose to leave their homeland and live with their distant relatives there.

While there, Sieglind was personally taught by her grandmother. Her grandmother was a retired warrior who now takes care of camels and goats for her family and travelers and herders. Sieglind was trained to be careful but also to be brave when she had to be and to be hospitable to others. She was taught honor, justice, standing up for those who are weaker, daily prayer and most of all, loyalty. Along with these values, she was taught how to take care of animals, how to survive in the desert, how to respect the dragons and speak with them and how to use the sand to her advantage.

It turned out that Sieglind inherited the magical powers of her grandmother. Together they trained and played every day with the sand. Sometimes, Sieglind used her powers to help her grandmother while her grandmother would either teach her a new lesson on her powers or simply fool around with her when there are no animals to care for.

Soon enough, Sieglind lost her grandmother. She died in her sleep, leaving Sieglind alone with her other relatives of this land. Her parents were gone too. Her relatives said that they went missing. They didn't know why. So she fell into sadness and did nothing. But she went against that, deciding to make a vow to the desert that she would live and that she would find someone to be loyal to. Something to fight for. Somewhere to go.

So she asked her relatives, her friends and her mentors. She too approached the dragons and any merchants or visitors from the other lands. She got her answer multiple times: Go to the Legion. So she went.

And look! She now was accepted by the Legion as both a caretaker for animals and a guide and a guard. Sieglind earned her nick name Streuen which meant "sprinkle with sand."

It however was a surprise for her when she realized that the boon given to her by the good stone of the Legion was something that allowed her to create and manipulate glass from sand!
Heroic Boon: Her boon is the ability to turn and use sand to create glass with magic alone. Sieglind is able to use her boon when it is activated at will. Her boon is displayed to others as gauntlets (as seen in picture). With these blessed gauntlets, she could easily turn sand into glass and bend it to her will.
Abilities:

• Sand Generation: Sieglind can create sand out of magic alone. However, this requires a lot of magical energy. It makes it easier for her to make sand if she is in or near a desert or any place with a lot of sand or ingredients for sand. She could even manipulate sand and when she is standing on sand or on any earth that is fine more or less to bend and use to her will, she could feel vibrations and tell where something or someone is coming from. It's also a reason why she chose to go barefoot or just to wear slippers/sandals.

Limitations (Reasons why your char can’t singlehandedly conquer a kingdom):

• Materials - Although Sieglind is capable of using other earthly materials, she is best suited to sand or glass. She cannot use other magic over other materials.
  
  In summary, the only materials she can use are glass, sand or other materials as long as its almost as fine as sand. Anything else that isn't as fine as sand or like glass is something she cannot use.
  
  Seismic Sensing - She could only exercise seismic sensing on literal ground or dirt. Stones block her as much as other materials.

Equipment:

• Tattoo Kit
• Small Notebook containing her notes and her grandmothers notes and last words
• Prayer Mat
• Short Sword
• Animal Feed

[Auropa]

Name: Corven Roche
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Appearance:

Always keeps his left hand covered in one way or another

Statistics: (All stats are at 1 by default, you have 8 points to distribute and you can only put 5 points maximum at the start to any stat)
Strength:3
Agility:4
Endurance:2
Magical Prowess:3

Bio:
Corven never knew his parents, whether they died before he could learn their faces or left him as a baby made no difference, in the end he was nothing but another gutter rat of Torbah. He spent most his first decade trying to scavenge, steal and beg for scraps with all the other lost children. Unfortunately for him though, his form was far from perfect and eventually led to the guards catching him and several others stealing at the ripe age of 8. In a desperate spur of the moment decision, he made the mistake of lashing out to buy the other urchins a chance to escape and while his resistance did little more than earn him a savage beating that day, his ‘crimes’ stripped him of his freedom and sent him into slavery.

From there, it didn’t take long for him to be sold. A child facing off against full grown men apparently had a certain ring to it and quickly reached the ears of a wealthy gladiatorial school owner. In the space of a few days, food stopped being a problem for the young Corven, instead all he had to worry about was the near constant beatings, brutal lessons and relentless training. It stayed this way for a few years but by the age of 11, he was called into his first battle. Being one of the youngest gladiators, he was made to fight in order to settle a bet his owner had made with his neighbour over a land dispute. “Our worst vs your worst, winner keeps the plot” That’s all Corvern heard and understood as he and four other scared children entered the arena to the sound of thunderous applause. Whether it was luck, skill or fate, Corvern and two others survived victorious. The other kids, shocked to their cores, were more than happy to just get out alive but Corven left changed, discovering a fire burning within him and a newfound determination to live and find justice. He had been punished, beaten, trapped and sold, all because he did ‘wrong’ yet here he was fighting and killing against his will for nothing more than dirt. It wasn’t fair.

The next few years passed in a blur of sweat, tears and blood, as he worked to get stronger and carve his way through life. While his progress was considered exceptional, his distaste and disrespect continued to grow, eventually earning him the wrath of his owner after scarring his child on his 9th birthday. The sentence was death by champion.
Not wanting to see his investment cut short for nothing, the slave master arranged a grand fight between Corven and ‘The Giant of Torbah’ his undefeated monster of a man that had spent nearly 15 blood soaked summers in the arena. The match was meant to be like all others, a one-sided slaughter that never failed to draw in the crowds. It began as expected, the giant lurching towards his opponent, mace at the ready as Corvern prepared a hopeless defence but when the giant pulled his weapon back, a flash of light darted forward as Corven embedded his sword deep within his opponent’s heart. There were no theatrics, no ripostes or parries, just a single, sudden stab and the grand bought was over. Seeing their champion suddenly crumple under his own weight left the crowd speechless, then slowly brought about a deafening round of applause and cheers to a silent victor.

From that one battle he was thrust into the spotlight as ‘the Giant Slayer’ and with all the money and fame he brought in, his owner quickly decided to mercifully ‘forgive’ his slave’s misdeeds and accept him once more, Corven meanwhile, learned to keep his mouth shut and bury his hatred out of sight. Years passed once more as Corvern bid his time and both his skill and legend until finally reaching his limit by the age of 22. After skewering another innocent fighter on his sword, he raised his arms to the cheering crowd and demanded his freedom. Caught off guard and on display, his owner was furious but ultimately at the mercy of the enraptured crowd. In the end, he gave his disobedient fighter a choice. Continue in his service, or win one last impossible fight. Seeing no future life in service, Corven chose the latter.

No one stopped him from leaving after all the corpses he dropped that day. From seemingly nowhere, the fighter drew forth magical powers and unmatched fury to cut down his opponents as fast as they came in. When he leaved the stadium that day, he took his freedom, his pay and left. He left Torbah and its deserts, he left the whole region and wandered from place to place until recently, wandering into the Legion.

Heroic Boon: Usurper: When backed into a corner, Corven can turn the strength of his opponent’s against them in a suitably flashy single ‘all-or-nothing’ counter attack. God help him if he misses.

Abilities:

• [Gladiator]: From his time in the arena, Corven learned to fight fast and hard. Now, utilizing his skills, surroundings and a bit of bad mouthing, he works to control the flow of his fights and wait for the perfect opportunity to strike. Its far from honourable but its effectiveness is undeniable.
• Signs: While not as strong as most magical spells, Corven mostly relies on signs to provide him with some additional options in battle without slowing him down. These signs come from a central rune etched into his left hand that, when given enough power, allows him to quickly manifest different abilities. Currently these signs are:
  -Impetu: Creates an outward shockwave from his hand roughly the strength of a shoulder charge
  -Vindu: Project and control a strong gale of wind for up to several seconds. While not powerful enough to topple opponents, it can be used to play havoc on arrows and loose clothing.
  -Clipeum: Creates a small, yellowed, magical barrier (roughly the size and strength of a large buckler) from his arm to any point around his body, though the field does not move instantly, and is far from indestructible, it can be a last ditch defense against any single attack.
  -Lux: Can create a small ball of light in his hand of differing intensities ranging from barely visible to near blinding (he’s not immune to any negative impacts potentially caused by it).
• Man of the people From balls, to cells, to bazaars, a good chunk of Corven’s life was dedicated to learning how to talk and act in front of wildly different groups. Assuming he’s taking the situation seriously enough, Corvern knows how to play most rooms to his advantage.

Limitations:

• Gambler: Corven puts everything he has into each and every attack he makes. As a result, if they fail to connect the way he wants them too, he’ll often find himself vulnerable and off balance.
• Get closer to my stabby stick!: With no effective form of long ranged combat, Corven can only fight up close and personal

Equipment:

• 
  He just can’t bring himself to get rid of it
• 
  (without halo)
  Corven’s armour is a relatively unique set of kit. Unlike most other plated armours, it focuses on mobility above protection allowing its user relatively unrestricted movement. While it leaves him much more vulnerable, the added mobility (and flare) suits Corven’s style of fighting almost perfectly.

Optional
Likes: Cheap meals, warm campfires, music, open spaces and messing with people
Dislikes: being looked down on for his past, slavers, most nobles
Greatest Fear: loosing his freedom


Hullo, some familiar faces here :3 been wanting to join a fantasy RP for a while and couldn't resist to write up an app after reading this one. If there's room for one more and my app looks okay then yay (though I know everyone's mid-quest so it might be a while before a meet-up), that said if there's anything wrong with the app then just let me know and I'll try to fix it up.

Name: Sieglind Datarrok

I just need you to clear up the limitations as it says "Limited Only to Sand and Glass Magic" but the description says she's "capable of using other earthly materials" which I find contradictory. Also, I'd find it would serve you better to move some stuff from the abilities to limitations as it fits better there like "She could only exercise seismic sensing on literal ground or dirt. Stones block her as much as other materials."

Name: Corven Roche

Looks good so far but I need to ask if that sudden "magical powers" he got was his boon or something else? If its supposed to be his boon then he shouldn't have had it before joining the Legion.

Whoops, I re-read the app and see the vagueness. My idea is that his powers came from him helping out a mage in the arena and said mage returning the favour by giving him his totally-not-ripped-off-witcher magic. I'm also realizing the app is a bit unclear on how he beat the last champion but if it seems okay as it is, then I'll leave it as an IC thing to fluff out
