This has my interest piqued :O So do we need to list small little magic tricks under magic even if their effects are miniscual? Like tiny little fireworks, that couldn't do any real harm, unless it was used, to say, light a fuse or some such thing? Also are half breeds allowed? :D


You wont have to go into much depth with them just put a little description, doesn't have to be named. Just want to know they could do it. Simply because everything can find a use in combat if you look hard enough. Also go for it with half breeds.

Dwarf Maturity would be approx 20 years of age, some more, some less. Unless you mean puberty, which would be 12-14 years of age.
Yes you can have a Dwarf with no magics, and if you so choose you can make "techniques" special moves to use with your weapon, or you dont have to, its all up to you.

Name: Gabriella the Brave Hearted.
Nickname: Gabe
Race: Angel
Gender: Female

Age: 366 years (quite young in her culture)
Age Appearance: 29 years
Birthplace: The Crystal City, high up

Alignment/Affiliation: The Divine Nation of Angels (neutral)

Rank/Occupation: A Council member and Archangel of Crystal City.

=========================================

Weapons/Items:

Name of Weapon: Gabriella’s sword
Description: On the ground this weapon is nothing more than a blade, but in Gabe’s hands it can engulf in flames and even shoot small bursts of fire.
Appearance:
=========================================

Appearance:
Just like her kin she is both elegant and beautiful to behold. Her hair always floats in the wind, even with no wind. Though she appears almost fragile, the truth is far from it. She wears no actual armor or protection, only simple thin silk-material. The wingspan on her is huge and rather impressive for most people to watch.

Personality: Though slightly arrogant and snobby, she is unusually curious about the world (which is known as “The Dirt” amongst Angels). Her bravery and mental strength is respected around her own kind. Though young her wisdom rivals that of some of the older Angels.

History: The floating fortress of Crystal City is a marvel to behold. Yet no Human, Orc or even Elf has ever laid eyes upon it. It is the place where the legend of high Heaven started. In it lives the ancient and proud white-winged Angels - pure in heart and mind, or at least that is what they will tell you. Though other Angels can visit and enjoy the hospitality, only citizens can stay. If a white-winged Angel was to ever find a partner from the outside, their family would be disgraced.
The creatures living down below are all considered lesser beings by the Angels, who refer to the world as “The Dirt”. From time to time an Angelic warrior flies down and report about the activities of the lesser beings, but no contact is allowed.
Crystal City was built only of pure moonstones and sparkling crystals. It’s just one of several places inhabited by Angels, but it is the most famous and beautiful of them all. The capital of Angels.

Yet for a whole year a strange sickness has plagued the great fortress and city…

Angels have had their wings turn gray and weak. Maybe one day Angels will lose their wings. Searching the archives and ancient scrolls has proved useless to the Angelic people, as no answers were found. Because of it, other Angelic nations have started to put distance between themselves and Crystal City. Disgrace is near. One day maybe all Angels’ wings will turn gray. Maybe one day Angels will lose their divine power.
HERESY!
Such can never happen!
Angels are not afraid and doesn’t worry! Simply implying it, is heresy.
This is still just a new and minor concern.


The timing couldn’t be worse. A hidden evil has been foretold. Chaos, death and destruction will erupt in The Dirt. As Angels consider themselves Masters of Existence, it’s their duty to preserve life and save the lesser beings – even from themselves - and even by killing some of them. The inhabitants of The Dirt are but foolish children. The real problem is that it has been many ages since Angels last meddled in mortal affairs. Someone who has studied the puny beings is needed to travel down.

This is where Gabe comes into the story. The young Archangel’s curiosity for the outside world has always been met with annoyance. Since Angels consider themselves the Masters of Existence and mentors of all living things, they want little to do with the filth below. Angels have, through time, guided mortal nations through quick visits and fast bloodshed and threats. But since humans started to explode in numbers and military, Angels have kept their distance.
That is where Gabe differs from most of her kind. She takes the part about guiding the lesser beings as a sworn duty. Her opinions have started many arguments in the Angelic Council, and she has yet to win a single one. But Gabe is still respected. Her cunning, wisdom, strength and determination have always been admired, and have secured her a spot on the Great Council for the past 68 years. But not only that, she has also achieved Archangel-status, an honorary title for only the most powerful and divine Angels. It is not often a Master of Existence practice both diplomacy and war.
Gabe is of good, noble family and has never broken a rule… yet.
When it was decided, that a small group of Angels was to travel down to The Dirt, she was picked because of her knowledge of the puny world.
So while her own home struggles to find answers for the strange occurrences, she visits the mortals’ home because of duty.

Only as long as Angels feel a responsibility to the silly little dirt-world, do they control it.

=========================================

Strengths:
- A physical strength much greater than a normal man, and combat-skills even greater.
- Her powerful wings can transport her around faster than any other being, and create powerful winds to send opponents or incoming arrows flying.

Weaknesses:
- Few friends and allies at her side.
- Arrogant and ignorant to many things in the world.
- Her good heart and self-sacrifice can easily be exploited.
- No long-ranged attacks.
- Little capabilities to defend herself from anything, that can’t be dodged or blocked by her sword.

Name of Magic/Technique: Immunity.
Rank: A passive and very old ability which flows in her blood.
Users: All citizens of Crystal City have it.
Description: Immune to most poisons, deceases as well as many spells too. It offers a good defense in and outside battle.

Hmm. I was planning on playing an angel as well, but Gabriella's power level (super-strength, armored skin, massive gust-creating wings, "immunity") is quite a bit higher than what I had in mind. I mean, isn't the divine reputation of angels supposed to be undeserved? What I got from the race description was that they were simply long-lived, winged humans, with perhaps a firm grasp of magic ("sky-elves", really).

Perhaps there can be some kind of in-universe justification, like enhancement magic given only to Archangels? Alternatively, I can give an explanation for my angel's own lack of such things. Maybe something to do with living on the surface for so long.

Always expecting newcomers Garrison

And as Imperfectionist said, the power level on that angel is just a bit on the high side. They are flesh and bone just as any other. They could have enhancement type magics as he said aswell. but such a thing would cost a great toll on the body to have the strength of fifteen men and armor hard skin.

Also mind reading as fun as it sounds leaves far too many opening for instantly being able to dodge anything, and leaves you, for the most part completely invulnerable. combined with the other traits you have.As much as the title of the race is "Angel" and one would think them near godlike beings they should be able to be killed by a simple soldier should they not take atleast some degree of caution.

A fair point, however when there are giants, vampires and ogres in the RP, the strength of Angels and hard skin alone does not place them as the biggest brawlers out there. I created the Angel with the thought that they should be the size of humans, yet seem divine to a simple grunt.

The one I created was meant to be among the top 5% of Angels when it came to combat-skill, and therefore given the title "Archangel".
I don't intend to use her as a overpowered character, nor undermine your angel.

If you wanna make a slightly more humble Angel, you can just say it's not an Archangel, or you can play into the whole "wings turn gray and weak"-plot.
I totally understand where you are coming from, but really I don't see my character as much greater than many other races (though the character's arrogance makes her claim to be superior. In fact the entire back-story is filled with arrogance and wrong believes). I just think there should be a reason to why mankind could ones have belied them to be grand beings of light, and prayed to them.

No one has made a lycan and as far as I know no one plans to make one. There is always a need for mer diversity, And Lycans surely offer that. They are strong and despite the hate some of them may garner. They do have redeeming factors. You'll fit in with others, or not depending on what kind of character you create. So i cant say for sure whether there will be need for a lycan specifically. But your free to make one if that's what suits you best.

EDIT: I'm just going to wait until HIdarii and Unknown have worked out a compromise that works for both of them, and go from there when crafting my angel.

What I said a minute ago was that, whatever else is changed, I support the angels having a preternatural immunty to disease and poison, ala Gabe's "Immunity" power. I'd remove the spell resistance, but otherwise, I think their not being affected by "earthly" afflictions, combined with their extreme longevity, is quite enougn for angels to be considered "divine". No need for iron skin and super-strength and all that.

The example I used was angelic healers descending during huge plagues, healing the sick without catching the plague themselves (and thus adding to the angel myth).

I can get behind what your getting at Imperfectionist. Makes plenty of sense to me. I just don't want an angel that can cleave through swathes of fodder unscathed, then happen upon one of the earthbound elite only to cleave him/her down with a single blow aswell.

AND NOW YOUR EDITING D:

I can delete the whole psychic ability thing. It means nothing to me. It was never meant to ever be used in battle in any sense. It was never described as reading an opponent thoughts from a distance. I was meant to be used only on touch and never on an enemy. I just delete it. No problem.
I can also totally reduce the ironskin thing, no problem.
Will she then be okay?

Edit: Do you want the psychical strength of Archangels to be lowered too?

Name: Elijah Blackwood
Nickname/Alias: Eli
Race: Lycan
Initial Race: Human
Gender: Male

Age: 24
Birthplace: Port Samhain

Rank/Occupation: Elijah thrives as an underground fighter for the scum of Port Samhain. On rare occasions, he participates in exclusive fights for the upper echelon for big pay outs.

=========================================

Weapons/Items:
Generic Items: Eli doesn't typically carry much as his pockets don't tend to stick around. His only major possession is a pair of bracers with unknown powers.

====================

Name of Weapon or Item: True name is unknown, Elijah knows them simply as Night Bringers.

Description: This item has some magical properties though the only one known to Elijah is that it is capable of changing in size to stay on his body whenever he transforms.
(I was hoping this bracer could be used later as some kind of artifact that has a bigger purpose in the plot or at the very least unlock some kind of magical powers to aid his destructive capabilities.)
Appearance:
=========================================

Appearance: Eli's casual wear is light clothing, typically with a robe or cloak. Great for ripping away during his transformation. He stands around 6'3 and weighs roughly 190, lean built frame. His eyes are brown but during moments of anger or prior to a transformation, his eyes turn amber and glow slightly.
Brawler Appearance
Lycan Transformation
This mark has been branded onto his right forearm to alert others of his affliction
Personality: Elijah is a fairly cold individual, he's been an orphan for as long as he can remember. Holding a grudge towards his parents that abandoned him and dealing with the primal rage that surges through his veins, has turned him into a dark young man. It doesn't take much to get him riled up, and above all else, no matter the odds, he's ready to fight. That is mostly thanks to his Lycan blood but growing up on the streets forced him to mature and fend for himself. He strives to fill the gap in his heart where a family and love would be with violence because it comes natural to him. He wants answers, in regards to what happened to his parents and why they abandoned him.

History: Elijah Blackwood was conceived under a noble family that had gained their status by trading their first born males to a Vampire clan. On the day the deal was to be completed for week old Eli, their home was broken into by a band of werewolves, hired to disrupt the Vampires plans. The parents were killed mercilessly, while the child screamed in it's bed. The were's conscious was absent save for one who'd mastered the transformation and decided to take the child. After a year had passed, they turned the boy and set him loose on the town, thinking his adolescent transformation would wreak havoc on the town before getting himself killed, providing many opportunities for them. The outcome was much less eventful as he was captured before any real damage could be done. He was captured by a group with the mark of a black hand, known infamously as The Night Bringers. They fed him, clothed him, gave him shelter but never showed any real love to him.

They forced him to hone his abilities and strengthen his bond with the feral beast within. This led to him having great control over it, much more than most Were's and especially at such a young age. By the time he was ten, he was nearly as proficient as any adult Werewolf they'd seen. This rough childhood shaped him into a efficient killing machine but what he wanted most was a family, which he realized he wasn't going to get from the group that took him in. He broke out one night and has lived on the streets ever since. He searched for answers about his past but after ten years, the town had moved past that horrible memory. Most didn't know anything about it and those that did denied it. All his searching ended up getting him into trouble with the towns people. The authorities learned of what he was and branded him with a mark that everyone recognized and avoided.

As years passed, Elijah became skilled at staying on the move, fighting quickly and precisely, staying ahead of everyone until he woke up with a box next to him. The box was worn down and had a black hand painted on it. When he opened it, he found matching bracers and a note in a language he'd never seen before. He discovered one day that even when he transforms, these bracers adjust in size and stay on him rather than being shredded apart like everything else, he doesn't know why but he continues to wear them.

=========================================

Strengths: He's passionate about finding the truth about his family and his combat skills are exceptional.
Weaknesses: His temper is quick to get him into trouble.

=========================================

Iron skin and psychic abilities being gone will bring it down sufficiently for my liking . I'm not too concerned about the strength as mages and ranged fighters should still have a chance and with your body being a larger target that most due to your wings, i'll allow it for now. I can agree that an angel "in their prime" should have some right of superiority over the common earthbound folk.
