Welcome!

[hider=CS][b][u]
Name: 
  
Gender: 
  
Age:[/u][/b] 
  
[b][u]Race: [/u][/b]([i]I will allow custom races, but I need a thing or two from you.  First, you'll need the culture and religion of the race, provided with a location of where they call home.  Next, I need a basic history of your race, what wars they fought etc.  On my go, this will become an official race that others can join if they see fit.[/i]) 

[b][u] Appearance:[/u][/b] ([i]Descriptions are preferred, but if you find a picture I'll take it.  Just no anime pictures.[/i]) 
  
[b][u]Personality: [/u][/b] (Who is your character?  What do they fight for?  Don't make this part bland or cliche, but not overly long either.  Enough detail for us to know your character but leave enough for us to uncover in the story.) 
  
[b][u]History:[/u][/b] [i](Give us the basics, a paragraph or two will be sufficient.)[/i] 
  
  
[b][u]Equipment[/u][/b]: ([i]Anything that you carry.  No detail is needed unless it warrants it.  Sword, shield, and backpack with supplies?  Have them in a simple, bullet point list.  A family sword with a special and beautiful design?  Best explain how it looks ;)[/i] ) 

[b][u]Example post (Optional):[/u][/b] ([i]I ask that you write an example post, no longer than two solid paragraphs but at least a few sentences in length that involves your character.  This section is optional but I do like to get to know you and your writing styles.[/i]) 
  
[b][u]Other:[/u][/b] ([i]Anything else we might need to know.  Be it special skills, such as your character being able to play a musical instrument, random bits of information too small to include elsewhere, what have you.[/i])[/hider] 

[center][b][u]Rules for magic:[/u][/b][/center]

Magic always has a cost, first and foremost.  The more magic weaker you use, the more it will strain your body.  Similarly, the more complicated the spell the harder it taxes your body.  Like a warrior can train his stamina, a mage can train to increase his "mana" so to speak
