Um... yes it is nitpicky... Yeah um... I also guess that cauterising a wound is also weird even though it is used to stop bleeding and to prevent infection :p

Haha don't worry I'll change it XD

Um, the way I read it it seemed like the metal was literally put inside the wound.

Was I reading it wrong? ^^;

Hm.

That's quite a bit different then what I thought. ^^;

Okay, that's fine, I think it would cool so quick it wouldn't burn through anything, right?

Yes that is correct. I should have perhaps explained it better, but essentially instead of using a normal bar of heated metal the Dragon Sodality use heated silver or gold which leaves behind liquidised silver or gold instead of an unsightly burn mark.

Can I re-add this if I explain it better?

Yeah, it's fine. I just got this image of someone smearing molten metal on people's faces and it really threw me off. ^^;

I'm sorry for the trouble.

No need to be sorry. I personally find things like the under the skin piercing's that create a shape in the skin off putting as well as the ear ones where there is a mass hole in the middle. Just thinking about it gives me the shivers XP

Member Seen 7 mos ago

Name: Felix 'Lighting Strike' Cral

Age: 30

Gender: Male

Appearance: Sometimes ending a fight is as simple as falling to the ground

Personality: Like his electrical name sake, Felix enjoys these paths of least resistance. Easy going and worry free to the point of being called 'Aloof' or 'fool headed' by some. Few slights are harsh enough cause him grief, few troubles to damning to be simple shrugged off. The type to be walking along a town road as the sky begins to pour rain and the extent of his reaction being 'well, guess I'll need to dry clothes off later', and not so much as walk quicker to be free of the weather. Easy to smile, glad to laugh, and difficult to frustrate, that is Felix in a nut shell. Even on a hunt he tends to be fairly bright eyed and relaxed, only gritting his teeth in serious determination once the foe is before him and as soon as battle is finished he is once again a smiling fool.

There are a few things that do get under his skin of course, the biggest of which is simple seeing what he calls 'unfairness'. Not justice mind you, though he does prefer to see the two go hand in hand. He will often go a great length to see fair solutions to problems, even if sometimes they are not technically legal. His most outstanding example of this is mentioned in his equipment section.

Brief Back-story: Felix was raised by a less than ideal father, a minor member in large cities chapter of the thieves guild. He used his son, gifted with the strength of a budding dragonslayer, as leverage to gain power and jobs within the organization. Basically hiring the superhumanly strong boy out as something of an attack dog in cases where muscle was needed, or a scapegoat when a distraction was needed. While Felix meet a good deal of kind people among the thieves guild, his father was not one of them and the bad often far outweighed the good. It wasn't till his father got overly cocky, or perhaps angered the wrong guild members and set up to fail, Felix was never sure which, that they were both captured by the law. Felix's father, for his myriad of violent crimes is in prison to this day while the young boy was looked on with pity and mercy.

At the time he was barely 10 and had been kept so in the dark by his father that he didn't even know what a dragon slayer was. The captain of the guard took responsibility for the boy, all but legally adopting him. He educated the lad, taking time to repair the sociological damage done to him, and also taught him to defend himself. The old battle ax of a city guard undertook a long and length endeavor that likely helped shape felix's obsession of 'fairness', that being undoing or making reparations for a great deal of the crimes he was involved in. 'Boy or no, you did innocent people wrong, and that must be undone to the best of your ability' he always said.

From there he embarked as a budding dragonslayer, exploring the world and further developing his sense of self and personal code of ethics. He was not his blood father, nor was he his adoptive father, and determined to do exactly what he feels is right and fair. A perfect example of this lies with the origins of his weapon.

Felix doesn't hide the fact that he stole the spear from a lord of a town early in his dragon hunting career when the man denied him his pay for his services and further investigation showed him that man was less and honorable and did much to squeeze wealth from the people in his town. He snuck in to the mans treasure and stole a great deal of gold to be given to the people and took the finely crafted, possible magically reinforced spear from the man. He still occasionally gets a bounty hunter on his tail, hired by the still bitter lord.

Abilities: As all dragon slayers are, he his mighty strong compared to a normal human, though in most sense of it he is about average as far as the slayers come, save for one aspect. Even by dragon slayer standards the strength in his legs exceptional. He has yet to meet another slayer his equal in that regard. He can bound high into the air with great precision and ease. It is part of his signature fighting style, able to engage low flying foes by surprise and help force them to the ground or to plunge down on beast from above for deadly blows, hence the name he has gained for himself. he has a seemingly supernatural accuracy for his massive bounds.

Equipment: He wears fairly bland, if rather well kept, light armor. He prefers the lighter types, while heavy armor does not hinder him on the ground it tends to throw off his center of balance during his jumps, and when one is throwing themselves into the air to either intercept a giant monster or land on it, having control of ones orientation is rather important. To help make of for the lack of heavier armor he has a rather sturdy shield, normally kept on his back. He keeps a pair one handed swords on his left hip, weapons he prefers to use on human normal human foes as to not accidentally kill humans with his dargon hunting implement. He is not really all the good with swords, but can overcome them most normal human foes with his superiors strength, but the handicap it provides keeps in line with his sense of fairness.

His weapon for dangerous beasts is his great spear 'Felstar'. A spear ludicrous size the blade of the weapon is about the length and width of most bastard swords. Where the blade ends there is a large cross guard about a foot in length on each side, the ends of which stop at sharpen points good for punching through armor or shields if need be. The shaft of the spear is made of a steel bar that is about 6 feet in length. A hoop is at the butt of the spear where a rope of a chain can be fastened. It is possible enchanted, though Felix stole the weapon and has no idea to access any enchantments that may be present.

Name: Viktor Gehrhart

Age: 53

Gender: Male

Appearance: "You must win the battle before blades are drawn."

Personality:
Gehrhart Is a reserved and austere man who tries to keep his emotions hidden but tends to do a poor job of it. In reality Gehrhart is actually quite friendly and quick to trust and a terrible judge of character. He firmly believes in the mission of the Dragonslayers and has taken to searching for and training potential future Dragonslayers. He is a loyal and steadfast friend but if he feels someone is unworthy of his friendship he will be far less welcoming. He can also be rather stubborn and set in his ways especially when it comes to things related to Dragonslayers.

Brief Backstory:
Viktor Gehrhart Has been a Dragonslayer for a rather long time, in that time he has seen friends fall and great beasts destroyed. He has felt the familiar rush of combat and that strangely empty feeling it left when it ended. He has lain eyes what The Dragons have done, smelled the smoke and seen the lines of now homeless and hopeless people forced to leave the place of their forefathers. He can't remember much from before his training except that he always felt like he had been missing something. When the woman in the scratched and worn armor had come to his village and taken him under her wing he had finally felt right. Now it is he who walks into the villages and finds that one child, the larger one who moves with an unexpected grace despite their size. It's the eyes though the look in their eyes that tells him they are ready to be trained. It's a look of longing, a desire to meet their fullest potential, and then he takes them under his wing and helps them do just that.

Abilities:
Gehrhart has mastered the use of his shield and blade in conjunction. His still impressive strength allows him to weather the most ferocious of blows with his shield and enables him to plunge his longsword deep into the black heart of his prey. His method of battle is to provoke his opponent and outlast their blows until they tire or make a mistake at which point he strikes and capitalizes on their weakness.

Equipment:
Elsa: His longsword that has been with him from the beginning of his career and has bathed in the blood of both dragon and man.

Bulwark: The shield his mentor had wielded and the one he now wields it is a truly large thing more close to a small wall covering Gehrhart from neck to foot but carried by him as if it were barely there. It has bore the brunt of many a blow and turned aside both blade and claw. It has been granted the ability to negate the deadly breath of a dragon protecting its wielder from torrents of flame and blasts of electricity.

@Goldeagle: I'm sorry, but the huge lack of information in the personality field of his bio makes it kind of difficult to figure out how he'd really act.@Zombehs: There are a couple thing I noticed, firstly that you say he was discovered and a young age as if it's unusual. It's more unusual for a Dragonslayer not to be recognized at a young age, really. ^^;@Winter: Looks good, accepted.@Luminance: She looks mostly okay, but I'm going to take a bit longer to get my final verdict up.


His personality is that of a primal being, simple and fierce. He has the mentality ofan enraged bear half the time and thinks little of those around him, let alone value. Thinking like a bear, basically is thinking like Yerdok, although add the natural need to kill dragons.

I went over this with Vita, so, um, yeah. ^^;

  • Name: Elanalei Ladrengil. Uses the assumed name "Ellen Starvalley".

  • Age: 75

  • Gender: Female

  • Appearance: Something like this. She always wears the hood up, as with it down her true heritage is betrayed by her ears.

  • Personality: "Ellen" is a dutiful, energetic girl who can be a bit naive and awkward at times. If called out on this, she would claim that this is because she grew up in a remote area and doesn't know how to properly act in social situations, but in truth it is because she is an elf hiding amongst humans. It doesn't really help that as a ranger she's used to acting alone, and is actually somewhat socially awkward even amongst her own people. Elanalei wishes to be honest in everything she does, which combined with the need to hide her true identity as an elf whilst in human lands leads to her being somewhat frustrated most of the time, something that usually comes out as her quickly and awkwardly changing subjects during conversation or randomly going off on her own under the pretense of scouting ahead. Still, whilst she can't be completely honest, it is something she holds to everyone else as well. There is nothing she hates more than liars and cheats.

  • Brief Backstory: When asked about her past, "Ellen" will very insistently declare herself to be a human from a small farming village who spent most of her 16 years of human life helping her definitely human parents work the land. Whilst she is somewhat more convincing then the description makes her out to be, the fact is that this is a complete fabrication, up to and including the part about being human. Secretly, she is in fact Elanalei Ladrengil, an elven ranger who has came to the human lands in disguise as one of them for unknown reasons (although it can be assumed that even the elves are worried about the growing numbers of dragon attacks as of late). Due to how rare a sight elves are in the human lands, and how much panic the sight of one would probably cause, it is clear why she has taken up a disguise; not just because such an uncommon sight as an elf would cause a lot of commotion, but because whilst anti-elf sentiments are rare they are not exactly unheard of. After following several rumours, she eventually heard about the Great Iron Mountain and is currently headed there.

  • Abilities: "Ellen" seems to possess greater speed and agility than other humans, whilst her endurance and toughness is below average. Despite what she claims, this is not in fact due to her being a Dragonslayer but in fact due to her secretly being an elf. What Elanalei does gain from being a Dragonslayer is superhuman coordination and reflexes, as well as enhanced eyesight that she uses to augment her already deadly prowess with the bow. Strangest of all her abilities, however, is the fact that she can seemingly understand wild animals and manipulate them to do her bidding. This ability only works on non-sapient, mundane creatures, but it can be useful for sending messages, scouting ahead in dangerous areas, aiding her in battle and, in the case of an emergency, making sure she doesn't starve.

  • Equipment: Elanalei's main (and indeed, only) weapon is a strange bow of unknown make, with a light yet strong body and bladed edges that allow it to be used for both ranged and close-quarters combat. With this bow, she uses a variety of different arrows. As well as the standard steel-tipped arrows, she has in her quiver special heavy-tipped arrows used for punching through the thick scales of dragons, in addition to arrows whose tips are tubes filled with several substances; these include a thick adhesive that sets quickly around those it hits, gunpowder that explodes on impact, powerful acid that can melt through solid rock, and a special chemical that creates a blinding flash on impact. For protection, Elanalei wears a light mithral shirt under her tunic.

    Non-human races do exist, but they don't exist in Ahlunda. Elves are known and some people don't like them, but there are others to. The humans of Ahlunda don't even know dwarves exist, it's been so long since they left to live in other lands.

    They'e incredibly rare in Ahlunda, to put it simply.
