Nameless Prestige Member Record
Name: Restus Andal
Age: 30
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Bio:
Restus was born as a blacksmith's son in the port city of Berporling on the edge of the Bay of Lin. Working the bellows from an early age made him one of the more muscular youths in his part of town, and he soon found none of the others kids could beat him in a fight. He enjoyed the fear his strength garnered and how he could easily take what he wanted from the other children. As he grew older his ambition and brutality soon caught the eye of the head of the town's crime family, who decided to recruit him to be an enforcer. Restus started out as a lookout and a runner for the gang, but as his body continued to grow, so did his involvement in the violent side of crime. By the time he was eighteen he was involved in extortion, assault, muggings, and even some murders. At first Restus was surprised by how the local police seemed to turn a blind eye to the crime going on in the city, but he started to notice the coin purses being passed around and saw the truth. The local leaders would ignore the criminals, as long as their property remained untouched. In turn the gang would pass on some of the profits and help remove some rich people problems. After six years in the gang, Restus had built up quite a bit of hidden wealth from his various jobs. This turned out to be quite the blessing when the local Dire Order head died from an assassin's poison and a gang war erupted in order to seize control of the criminal family. While he enjoyed the power from being a member of the Dire Order gave him, but now he saw his involvement as a death sentence. He gathered his wealth and slipped out of the town to start a new life in Arcus.

Restus knew he couldn't live on his saved coin forever, so he looked for a new line of work. His penchant for violence found a new outlet when he joined a small mercenary company called the Warhawks. There he was trained to fight with both sword and spear and it is also where he first began to learn magic. One of the members of the company was a slightly talented mana forger, who created flying wooden birds to spy on enemy formations. Seeing the massive potential of this magic and the power it could give him, Restus asked the man forger to teach him, and after a favor was done and money was paid, Restus began to learn the art of mana forging. After two years with the mercenary band, Restus decided to further refine his magical abilities, and left the company to attend a local magical academy. There he learned to create more complex forms besides just rough earth golems. After four years of learning he graduated from the academy with his trusty homunculus.

After his graduation, Restus moved from lord to lord as a magical military advisor, but was unhappy with being the servant. He didn't want to have to risk his life in someone else's petty conflict. He wanted to work for himself and his interests. He soon left his adviser position and became a solo adventurer, taking on jobs he felt benefited him the most. He did reconnect with some of his past Dire Order associates, but did rejoin the organization. His string of successful jobs soon caught the eye of the Nameless Prestige, and after proving himself by burying a castle full of bandits with a massive, metal toothed hellion, Restus became part of the exclusive organization. He enjoyed the prestige that came with the Nameless name and also enjoyed the lack of political involvement.

Well, I am intrigued by the premise. It is a shame that I'm in the mood for a lizardmen character. Maybe next time

As it is right now, there is no major issues I can see. However, I will be waiting till you provide an RP sample before I accept or deny it. Though, considering the quality of the app, unless the RP sample is horrible in comparison, there shouldn't be any issues.


To any lurkers, we are still open, and still looking for apps. I understand though that it is exam season, that said, I do not want this to die before we start, as I put so much into the world building

[Sivala]

Bumping this for the OP. It's a great concept and we really wanna launch it!

After reaching eighteen, Roland thought about what to do with his life, not wanting too just linger at the family estate. He remembered his uncle who was in the same position Roland was in and founded a mercenary company. Roland sought out his uncle and after talking about joining with him, his uncle agreed on one condition, that he undergoes a test to see if he skilled enough to join. Roland agreed and passed his uncle's test, officially joining his uncle's company. Years passed and Roland would travel to all sorts of places on the continent and became a stronger fight along the way. When he was twenty five, the company experienced a series of misfortune that led the men to question Roland's uncle's leadership. Roland stood by his uncle's side and tensions were high. Then came the next job that ended disastrously and his uncle died in the process. While Roland was busy grieving for his uncle, there was a debate among the company of who should lead them. In the end, the company attacked each other and the company disbanded soon after. With his uncle and the company gone, Roland traveled the land, taking the role of a solo mercenary and would earn a name for himself. Three years later, Roland was contacted by the Nameless Prestige about an offer to join them. After thinking about it, he accepted and knowing the honor of being invited to the Nameless Prestige.

How long exactly as he been part of the Prestige?

Need more details with the magic
Armor - How strong?
Lightning - How strong?
Repel - How strong is the repeling force? Examples of what it can and can not repel necessary
Ablaze - How strong?
Faster - How much faster?

Also, you do realize that enchanting during a battle is extremely difficult so you'd need to apply them before a fight. As such, you need to also apply a limit on how long the enchantments remain (either by number of hits or by time depending on the enchantment)

Sorry for the delay

Is it possible that you can rework the bio so that the character has been around for more than a year (so many people so far have wanted to be a year new to the group)?

Poison - Does the poison go away after one hit or multiple hits?
Lightning - What do you mean by medium? Please just describe the how much it effects the human body
Repel - Can't stop a strong enough swing from a strong weapon.
Ablaze - Again, what do you mean by medium?

[Faal Lot Himdah]

Please be aware, the lack of activity and news is due to the holidays. I am still working to make this run. This is not dead yet

[Sivala]

Wooo woooo!

[Faal Lot Himdah]

Not dead yet. Aiming to start running the actual RP before the end of the month

So remember when I said I'd try to get an app up relatively quickly? Two months ago? Yeah. Life has killed me but... hey. This is... something. And something is better than nothing, right? ...right?

Nameless Prestige Member Record
Name: Julienne. That's it. No last name. She prefers nicknames, though, and is particularly fond of being called Lien.
Age: 22
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: Uncertain; she hasn't had time to find out
Bio: Lien's story begins with her mother, a member of the Alagle race who found a Guspon man on the shore one day. The only survivor of a shipwreck, he was in terrible condition, and the woman reluctantly helped him recover before he could be put on a passing ship and returned home. For unknown reasons(perhaps simply on impulse) the two had a brief affair, and several months after he was gone the woman gave birth to a child.

She was horrified. To have a child with someone of another race... It had never been her intention. She'd never intended for anyone to know, either. But she wasn't married, and if pressed, she wouldn't be able to name any Alagle man as the father.

So she abandoned Lien on the shore in the same place that man had come into her life.

Luckily for the infant, a Eurabic crew just so happened to be visiting, one of whom picked up the abandoned child, unwilling to leave her to die. That man became the one Lien knew as her 'father', and his family became hers.

Through him, she learned much about the rest of the world--his travels took him to many places, and he always made sure to bring back stories and sometimes even items for her. She was content, mostly--but a part of her itched for adventure of her own. So at the age of 17, she left home, planning to study magic.

A year later, she returned home, only to find that her family was gone. No one would tell her where they went. No one would tell her anything at all... but the blood stains in their home told her all she needed to know.

Something went cold in her that day. She needed to kill whoever had taken her family from her. She needed to find them, and tear them apart.

So Lien threw herself back into studying magic with a vengeance. There were many sleepless nights and many days where she didn't even bother to eat, so busy was she with her work. And two years after beginning her studies, she decided she was ready.

She never was quite sure how she caught the attention of the Nameless Prestige. She hadn't thought herself to be on that level. But she knew of them and their reputation, and knew that it was the quickest way to get what she wanted. With luck, she'd find access to information she otherwise wouldn't have had; even without it, she'd no doubt come into contact with all kinds of monsters, whether they be in human form or not.

She's been with them for two years now, and still hasn't found what she's looking for. But she will, eventually.

(The idea that she might not scares her too much to comprehend.)
Appearance:

Magic Technique: Wizard
Magic: Lien's go-to elements are Awyr and Dwr; though she can manipulate them on their own, she prefers to combine them to manipulate Tywydd and further specializes in manipulation of Trydan. Lightning is her strongest suit. She has to use her flute(which serves as her focusing wand) in order to cast any spells, and has specific combinations of notes for each one.

Particular spells:
A spell to control existing water; it can douse any natural flame and many magical ones as well. Because it uses existing water, its power is dependent on the surrounding environment. Very versatile.
A spell to control the air and manipulate it into wind of varying strengths. Typically she can reach up to an EF3 tornado in terms of damage. Depending on the environment and her physical and mental condition, she can occasionally reach EF4. Among other methods, the winds can be countered with powerful fire magic and snuffed out by the flames. Extremely versatile.
A spell combining Awyr and Dwr to form a miniature hurricane, usually able to reach category 2 levels and on rare occasions category 3. Dangerous and not particularly versatile.
A spell to summon lightning. Dangerous and not particularly versatile.
Aside from that, she can generally manipulate any weather phenomena; those are simply her most powerful and specific spells, and essentially any others fall under one or more of those categories.
Skills: Unusually farsighted(though as a result she has a lot of difficulty seeing things up close without her glasses); agile and quick on her feet; dexterous; good with her hands
Equipment: A pair of glasses, a flute, a dagger
