@The Bork LazerI like the raskaal a lot so far! Like you said, they need a little polishing, but I didn't catch anything too incompatible with the world. I like the idea of them being one of the most technologically-advanced races--feels unique. The only place I questioned was the skills--can they climb due to hooked claws? By "supernatural" senses is "highly-refined" intended? Or are their keen senses magically-based? That's it. Also, I now really want to read "The Mouse and the Org," haha.


Yes, to the first one and no, to the second one. Their senses are a mixture of magical and highly-refined due to the events that were involved in their evolution. Some members can taste the type of flour and water that went into bread, some raskaal can hear a fart one kilometer away and etc.

Tada! ^_^


Very nice. It's all looking pretty good; there are just a few areas I'd like to question, if I may? First off, the Quirk description is spot-on, however, the marospire is a species of creature in and of itself, meaning they don't typically start out as people. Although, if that is a feature you'd like to introduce (as an anomaly or otherwise) we surely could do that. It's an interesting backstory, after all. What do you think?

(Also, where is Dax stowing their bodies and what biome was Anacosta in? Is Dax still nearby the destroyed town? Need to know so I can place them on the map, a map which I have posted under a new "Exploration" tab under Gameplay Mechanics.)

Secondly, this is my fault, I'm sure, the actual Temperament Traits to pick from are under the whitegray bolded labels. For instance: "Free-thinking" is an Open-minded trait under the Intellect category. I'll need to reword my instructions in the post.(I think I changed things to be clearer.) There should be thirty total traits to pick from. And lastly, each character just starting out has a limit of 2 skills. "Possession" is fine, of course, because that's a natural ability, but you'll need to pick two out of the four others ("Hand to hand. Slight of hand. Stealth. Detection."). After that's all done feel free to consider the character accepted.

@The Bork LazerAh, got it. Alright, sounds good to me!

On the subject of species potentially starting out as people - I'm assuming both mormagi and sympi do? (I've been meaning to create an occ, but I've suddenly got an idea for a mormagi, though I'm not yet quite sure which I'll end up committing to).

@SilverPawYes, those are "races" that typically begin as either stodmen or ennen. I'm not against the concept of the diseases learning to species-hop, though. This is yet another tab I should probably add. The sympi disease, synthruus, spreads via fluids (saliva, blood, bad water). The mormagi virus, skalgwordh, typically hangs out on ripe corpses in places with little oxygen, and also spreads via contact. But, of course, have fun with it all. :)

@Admythaus I gotta edit those fixes i already got them figured out. I didn't really realize they w were their own entity but I would like to introduce it as an abnormality if you can that backstory took two days to perfect ^_^. But I will insert the changes. But just so you don't have to go back and re read I will put them here. Anacosta is in the mountains. That is where he/they typically reside due to its gloomy nature. The body's are stored there in three standing coffins. I chose stealth and detection and I will be sure to properly look into the temperament traits

@BlueflameI am imagining a blue Calcifer. xD


I love him. Accepted! Were you wanting me to paint a portrait for him? Also, is he actually located in the palace of a king? The king of Heil and Gillsommr?
(I'm dismissing his "skills" as natural abilities, btw; therefore, does he have any learned skills?)
-----------------------

@ColtshanThank you for wanting to join! AXIS is right, but that's okay, you didn't know. Overall, Auctamos looks pretty good, fleshed out (I like his first two quirks, especially); I just have a few questions, if that's alright? I'll order them for convenience's sake.

1) This is about the history: Did Auctamos attack his lord? Is that why the lord "ran him through" then sold his niece and nephew into slavery? And I'm assuming he was left for dead? Asking because Auctamos likely would have been tried as a criminal sooner than being killed if he simply renounced his loyalty (unless his lord was off his rocker). But if Auctamos attacked first and was left for dead, and his "death" left the children without guardian, the conclusion as written could be more likely.

2) History again: Is Auctamos still in Gillsommr?

3) One more about history: How did Auctamos become a mercenary and acquire his animals?

4) Is Auctamos primarily a swordfighter or magic-user?

5) Spells: I like Umerkydin; it fits miribilia magic perfectly (though by dialect do you mean language?). "Yovingaern," on the other hand, sounds like atermagia magic the way it siphons youth. Are you okay with me categorizing it as such? That would mean he cannot use it as efficiently. If you'd rather both spells be miribilia then you can modify it, of course. You can think of miribilia as "miracles;" things that we wish would happen but would be shocking if they did.

6) Finally, his equipment: is any of it enchanted?

Once we get these sorted out then he should be good to go.
-----------------------

@The Bork LazerHahaha, that character is great! It's like Ratatouille and Gordan Ramsey had a baby. Great history, too. Accepted!

Auctamos was in the battlefield and was ran through by the enemy lord. His overlord lost the battle and his niece and nephew were enslaved by the invading force while they didn't bother with tending to an already wounded combatant and left him to die. Auctamos currently works out of Gilsommr, but frequents neighboring land due to work.

While working contracts, Auctamos become more isolated, seeing no goodness could come from forming bonds with his fellow Stodmen. Thus along the way he bought or rescued his pets from injury or dangerous situations. They have been his main source of companionship.Rescued by a roaming band of sellswords, they tended to his injuries and which he repayed by being apart of their band for a few years. At the beginning of the rp he is newly freed of his debt to his saviors.
Auctamos was mainly a mage, who grew to fear death after his near death experience, and so his time as a sellsword was expended in trying to keep his age and youth from declining, despite being in prime health and condition. Thus anything to keep him living on will be sought by him above most everything else.

Umerkydin is for language, but can also interpret body language, animal noises, etc. Am i able to learn Atermagia when I level up, if so I can deal with the inefficiency for one level.

His equipment is fashionable but otherwise ordinary. His unique items are mainly sentimental. The old sword is capable of being reforged into a greater blade as it is an family heirloom from a time when his family were wanderers, each generation becoming anything from knights, wisemen, farmers, and even petty nobles. Illaren is an ancient family that has been seemingly everywhere over its long and forgotten history.

@The Bork Lazer So, I finally took the time to read the history of your character (excellent work, btw), and the line "venture out into the seas to new promised lands" to me equals pirate Raskaal XD. As impressive as the Kriegers are, I'm just really fond of the idea of a group of these beings operating a ship and wreaking havoc! I bet there are some like that out there somewhere, hah.
