[hider=Yakeru][center][img]https://i.ibb.co/XJ2Gr0X/Yakeru.jpg[/img][/center] [u]Real name:[/u] Miyazaki Hakaru [u]New World name:[/u] Yakeru [u]Nickname/titles: [/u]None yet [u]Gender:[/u] Male [u]Real world age:[/u] 28 [u]New world age:[/u] 17 [u]Species:[/u] Human [u]Original World:[/u] Used to live and work in Tokyo, Japan [u]Appearance: [/u] When he was still a 'normal human' living in Tokyo he was tall and lean, with dark, almost black, shoulder length hair. Dark brown eyes that always look tired and a friendly smile on his lips. Feeling most comfortable wearing shirts with all kinds of prints, baggy pants and sneakers. In this New world he is a bit shorter, standing at 5'3 with short, messy brown hair, yellow eyes and even though the tired look is gone from his gaze, the friendly smile did stay. He wears now a gray blueish tunic, linen pants with leather shin boots, a red battered and weathered cloak. On his shoulders are steel spaulders, his arms and hands leather gauntlets reinforced with steel, 2 leather belts with pouches on his waist and hard leather shin guards. [u]Personality:[/u] In the old world, he was not as heroic as the character he had created, rather walking away from fights or trying to talk his way out of it. Often careful who to agitate or not to agitate. Though kind-hearted and willing to help others was a trait he shared with Yakeru. Being Yakeru in this new world however gave him more confidence and his know-how of the adventures his character used to be in and the fighting abilities made that he became more brave. Still his carefulness is ever present, not truly grasping what he is capable of in his new form, his new identity. His self doubt often standing in the way of his deeds. [u]Backstory:[/u] He used to a mangaka of a fantasy web/light novel called: 'Yakeru, kanpai!' or 'Cheers Yakeru!' , which was fairly popular and got him some internet fame. It told the tale of seventeen year old Yakeru, mercenary and adventurer whose base of operations is a rundown tavern. Along the way Yakeru meets several people who decide to join him on his adventures. You know. Saving the world, kissing the princess. The works. After several years however Hakaru decides to end the tale of Yakeru and starts to focus on another project. Even though fans are pleading, asking, if not demanding to continue, he kindly refuses, believing that 'Yakeru, kanpai!' had a long enough run and that the story was simply told. One day however he gets shot and killed by a disappointed(read: crazy) fan, outside a store after shopping. He wakes up in a world not his own same as the body he is in, instead he looks exactly like the character of his creation: Yakeru. Confused about what had happened to him, he decides to make the best of the situation and it sure beats dying. Or is he dead? His head filled with questions, yet no one to answer them. This was not the world he had created and it was not his story. But perhaps it could become HIS story. A new life as the hero. He kinda liked that idea. But a troubling thought crossed his mind and kept lingering: What if, when he dies in this world, he stays dead? [u]Skills/Talents: [/u]Some knowledge of fantasy worlds, races, etc. from his years of writing. Since he arrived in this New World, he got granted the skill of swordsmanship. The same as the hero of his creation. [u]Powers/Abilities:[/u] Quick/short distance teleport, not perfected yet but for now he can use it to dodge out of the way of attacks. [u]Items:[/u] Simple sword with a dark red hilt, the crossguard shaped to slightly cover his hand on both sides. His armor. Cloak. Whetstone. [u]Other:[/u] Burning desire: To live the life of a hero with all the trials and benefits that comes with it.[/hider] [hider=Lucrezia Du Lac] [center][b]Name:[/b] Lucrezia Du Lac [b]Title:[/b] Knight-Captain, The Golden Spear [img]https://i.ibb.co/Lzfs6JX/Lucrezia-Du-Lac.jpg[/img][/center] Gender: Female Age: 26 Species: Human Height: 5'8 Origin: Native of the Hume Empire, though her ancestors came from Galtia. Possessions: Her full plated armour adorned with red and gold, her spear and short sword, her horse Callixtus, her honour as Knight-Captain and loyalty to the Emperor. Abilities: Known as a spear wielder without equal hence she is called the Golden Spear (May also have something to do with her hair) by her troops. Veteran warrior and frequent participant of tourneys. Can call upon an ability that enhances her speed and power for a limited time. Description: Lucrezia was born a golden haired child in the Imperial city of the Hume Empire. Her parents served the previous Emperor as minor nobles and advisors. Since her parents were not gifted with sons, Lucrezia having a younger sister, she was given all responsibilities of becoming the heir of the Du Lac line. Which she declined. She never wanted to be a noble lady and paid more attention to horse riding and learning to fight, wanting nothing more than being a soldier. Despite her parents' best attempts, they were not able to change her mind, turning towards the younger sister instead to become heir. After a show of skills during a tourney in the honour of the newly crowned Emperor in which Lucrezia emerged as champion, she was granted the chance to join the Imperial Guard and rose quickly through the ranks. As Knight-Captain she would serve directly under the Emperor and take orders only from him. She would be his spear, his vanguard in every struggle and would readily die to protect him. She has earned the trust and loyalty of her troops and the people.[/hider]
