[OOC] Destiny: Contact Horizon

[Scout]

Iliana Borden

Name: Iliana Borden
Age: 27
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Class: Huntress

Appearance:


Background: Born in the Last City, beneath the might of the Traveler, Iliana was raised by a former Guardian, cut down in his prime due to the loss of his right arm, and his wife. She was raised just below the noble classes, due to her father's standing as a Guardian before her birth. He was a very intelligent man, a Warlock, in fact, who continued to devote his life to studying the Traveler and all that the mysterious sphere had to offer. Her mother, on the other hand, worked very hard to raise the girl. The silver lining to her father's injury came with the home they were given and the job he acquired at the Academy, where he would teach aspiring Warlocks and scholars what he could. Even after losing his status as an official Guardian, Iliana's father's Ghost remained with them. It was not until Iliana came of age that they realized why - he became her Ghost and allowed her passage for Guardian training.

She and her best friend, Asurya, an Awoken girl who lived not far from her, enlisted at the same time and were trained together. To this day, they're one of the closest-knit duos of the Guardian Fire Teams. While they try to keep to themselves, it isn't uncommon for them to invite a third or fourth member on their excursions, depending on the nature of the mission.

Contact Horizon is a 1x1 between Scout & Anima - though we welcome posts to the OOC, we would like to mention that the Destiny universe has only hit the consoles in Beta form and little is known. Furthermore, even after release, an immense amount of information posted will certainly be non-canon and contain many of our own plot devices. The roleplay is character-centered more than it is action-focused. We claim no right to the Destiny Universe, but the characters are entirely of our own design, as is the story revolving around them specifically. >_> This isn't a legal disclaimer, so... Just a heads-up, it likely has some holes. We're not, obviously, trying to rip-off of Bungie's fantastic game. Just had a craving to use the setting for a roleplay. Hooray! Feel free to comment and let us know what you think.

Asurya Ithala

Name: Asurya Ithala
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Race: Awoken
Class: Warlock

Appearance:

Background: Raised within a family with a lineage of powerful Warlocks, Asurya was taught the mysteries and wonder of Traveler. Her father was one such Warlock who had forged his way up the Guardian chain of command through the acts and decisions that had pleased the vanguard of his vocation. Her mother followed the more domestic path where she acted as the Last City's agricultural Chairwoman. With such a figures being her parents, Asurya was afforded many luxuries that a great many of her people after their 'rebirth' lacked. However, though she certainly had the means to obtain such pleasures, she abstained from such acts for she believed the purity of the body would allow one to truly commune with the silent yet vigilant traveler.

It was when she went to the tower with her father did she discover a ghost had reached out to her. With the revelation revealed, her father began to teach her the arcane arts, which derived from the power of the traveler. Soon enough, she became adept in her art of psychonic killing. When she passed her initiation into the ranks of the Guardians, she was reunited with Iliana whom trained under the Hunter Vanguard. Their reputation as partners filtered through the Last City as they took on mission after mission with a fairly high rate of success.
