[MonkeyBusiness]

Name: Marcus Frost Theme Song: (Optional) Gender: Male Age: 21 Appearance:

Hider

Personality: Marcus is the type of person most people would describe as carefree and empty headed. He always seems to be able to get out of his responsibilities and would rather disappear and mediate or just relax in a tree somewhere in a hammock made from his wires. One of the few things that is able to hold his interest is a good looking person of the opposite gender and he can often be seen trying to impress them by showing off. He doesn't like to take anything seriously and never fights seriously either because he is actually afraid of what he can do when he uses his weapon and powers in combination and will only fight serious when he is sure that none of his friends are able to see him fight. Favourite Colour(s): Aqua Blue Favourite Food(s): Enjoys most types of seafood. Hobbies: Meditation, hitting on girls, having a good drink, being lazy. Weapons: A spool of wire that is held in a holster on the small of his back with connections to two gloves which house wheels that control the speed at which the wire can be spooled out. The wire is constantly being kept in a damp state so that Marcus could use his ice powers on the wires. His gloves have talons on the fingertips that allow for the wire to not become tangled and also helps with close combat if he has to fight up close. Powers/Abilities: Marcus has powers over water in his immediate area having the ability to solidify the liquid into ice that he is than able to use freely. He can bend the ice to his will allowing the ice to become his protection or it can be used as an offensive tool as well. He is skilled with the use of thin wire that can be released from his gloves and can be spread out to create webs for defense. Biography: Marcus was born into in a village hidden away in a mountain range where the power of ice is very common. Marcus grew up with a need to explore the rest of the world which was uncommon for the village as they did like to maintain their isolation hidden away in their village, but the real need for adventure came from his need to find warmer climates as he was never a fan of the cold in the mountains. He now travels around the land looking for a good adventure to join and some good looking females to chase after in the spare time. (The weapon is similar to the one of Akame Ga Kill called Cross Tail.)

[Aura Lodestone]

Name: Aura Lodestone Theme Song: I need to get one, theme songs are awesome Gender: Male Age: 100 Appearance:

The Hundred Year Kid

He is somewhere around 4ft and maybe shorter or slightly taller, he generally has blue hair which is strange and grey to blue eyes which seem to look right through people. He wears a strange piece of headwear to protect his ears. Personality: He is detached and other than his failed attempts at hiding emotion, he is a normal child who just happened to be related to the great evil in this world. With only Crusaders or so called Holy people able to tell his lineage this boy always expects that people hate him and will assume his done wrong under nearly all circumstances even when he is in the right. He occasionally loses interest in things and falls asleep as well as not seeming to pay attention under most circumstances. He is somewhat afraid of bugs, but mostly more annoyed then scared of them even though he finds him interesting, with this line it describes how he sees most things. He fears everything, finds everything to be a bother but in the end he still loves it all. His personality however will turn dark when he gets too scared or too annoyed with him turning into a selfish brat easily. He also does not like things crawling into his ears so wears some headwear sometimes when his sleeping to stop this Favourite Colour(s): Blue and Green Favourite Food(s): Plain Sandwich Hobbies: Taking naps and wandering around just looking at the scenery Weapons: He currently only has a small short sword his father gave him with the Cleave Ability, he can craft his own weapons but it takes a few minutes to do so and he can not carry too many weapons either. At most he will either have 1 heavy weapon or 2 light weapons on him at any given time. This does not include minor lightweight tools that are small like his hands, does not include daggers but refers to items such as a small rock, a bag of dust, a pouch of coins etc... Currently wears a hidden chest plate covering his heart area in general in order to protect him from stabs to the chest, he can still be hurt since it merely directs it away from the heart and does not prevent it from stabbing right through him. Powers/Abilities: Longevity (It may be a miracle or a witch's curse, but this child does not age and can live without anything for a long period of time) Sleep Recovery (Sleeping lets him recover from non-fatal wounds or diseases, but any fatal, severe wound or deadly disease will require medical attention or magical healing in order to recover) Lodestone Crafting (Passed down from his adopted family he has the ability to craft unique weapons which have one of three enhanced abilities) Crafted Weapon Abilities Cleave : the weapon may attack further than its appeared range (used to deal with fast opponents or ranged attackers) Rend : the weapon does more damage that its supposed to like a scratch becomes a cut and a cut becomes a slash (used for taking out tough beasts) Shatter : the ability to break most solid objects besides good quality weapons or strong metal structures(used to break armor) He is skilled in using a Halberd (Hammer Pike Spear type weapon) Hammers in general, swords and bows. He is not exceptional in either but is good with all of them. Can also craft other weapons if taught as well as basic armor as well, however he still needs to spend time gathering the materials unless he uses the Lodestone Craft which he can not use to often as it makes him fall asleep after and basically lets him craft by just having basic materials and converting them through a somewhat magical process which uses will power and imagination to create the weapon in the absence of the correct materials He has very keen eyesight with exceptional hearing, but his body is actually frail and rather weak in general. Biography:The young boy who was born close to a hundred years ago under the light of a Broken Moon (in essence a bunch of trees blocked the moon so it looked broken) this child was born. He did not do much and he just so happened to have been born the day the evil knight had been defeated. However soon people had begun to find out that this was a child was no ordinary child as it was discovered his real mother was a witch of sorts who had served under Levado during the troubling times. Due to these circumstances the woman who had died gave her child away to a couple of people in a peaceful village before dying at the hands of the great Crusaders. His adoptive parents at that time were members of the Lodestone Crafting family that had often worked hard at their craft . They raised the child as their own, even though he was exceptionally quiet and hard to understand they loved him anyways. He had a talent for taking up the crafting arts of his family due to possessing a good amount of unique energy used in the Lodestone Arts. The Crusaders soon discovered the child's location after several years of searching and apparent murdering of any child who happened to be the same age as that child. They were still close to a day away from arriving in the town as the villagers kept away from the blacksmiths calling their weapons the Blades of Ruin and the Swords of Destruction having forgotten that the village lived off of the exploits of the smiths. The village was also given a message of a handsome reward if they handed over the child, while the villagers wished to give up the child the family stood firm and being the main source of the village's status the villagers could not just force them to give in to the demands. As the little boys adoptive parents looked to the little boy who at the time was no more than ten years of age, they could not bare the thought of giving the child up to suffer for the sins of his parent's past with the Evil Knight. They felt an innocent child should not be given up as they prepared for him to leave packing in a backpack full of sandwiches, a small pouch filled with money and two bottles of water which he could barely carry. They told him they loved him and he did not show too much affection but he looked down sadly and said he loved them too which they thought was cute. As they were running out of time with the villagers having already barricaded the family in for the time when the crusaders would arrive. It was then that an assassin appeared, the boy did not look scared at all and the child's adoptive father drew his sword stopping the assassin at the last second holding him back. The villagers trapped them on the outside and an assassin kept his father from helping him to travel. The mother knew that it would be up to her, she took her best weapon she had ever crafted known as the Scythe of Revenance, each weapon had a name at the end and a secret name to draw out its potential. Using this she went outside and began breaking through the barricades as her child followed her not really understanding the situation itself. The Crusaders began to hurry on horseback as the woman found two horses just before they could leave her husband was sent flying out of the house with cuts all over his body, the boy did not cry but his eyes were watering as she felt him try to go to the aid of the man who raised him, she held his shoulder firm. He was resisting crying by instinct so to speak as he would tear up but would never let the tears flow, at least not in front of people who were strangers. It was then that the crusaders arrived in her moment of hesitation, her husband was defeated and the assassin though strong was injured having only his right arm left and having lost his left ear as well. The woman did not know what to do the assassin blocked the path to the barricade and the crusaders now blocked the escape path she had just broken through. The man known as the boy's father began to stand up laughing and then said, "A sword is life, made from the heat of passion found in the heart of a furnace". The man grabbed his sword and stabbed it into the ground as the area around the house and random locations around the village began exploding the villagers fled but the crusaders numbering close to over fifty had their target in their sights, but were in no hurry as they knew the child could be a fake so they did not want to waste too much effort as they slowly began to surround her. The man knew this display meant nothing to the trained knights who had been fighting against Levado all these years. The leader of the Crusaders finally spoke up and it was unclear what he said, but that day the woman and man fought bravely and the leader himself stabbed the boy in the chest. He left the sword there as the child was pinned to the ground, they were done with their mission but before they could retrieve the body the village began collapsing having taken too much damage in this battle, the crusaders retreated and the entire village vanished off the face of the earth After close to ninety years with the child having been forgotten an archaeologist dug up and found the body of a child with a sword in his chest, taking out the sword the child was still alive. As he got to the hospital they found the child had luckily survived as the sword had been bent to stab short of his heart but how did a child survive being buried in the ground and as they were about to ask questions the child woke up not sure of where he was or what was going on as the people were confused and simply did not know what to do with their findings. With the child's future unclear and not much known, what could they hope to discover from this lucky child. EDITTED waiting for final go over

My theme song could always become Let it go just because of the ice.

@MonkeyBusiness

Here's a suggestion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9hwjQBQFIo I just figured he would be able to use his wires to play a lovely tune xD

[Water Akira]

MonkeyBusiness, your character is approved. Awesome character, I really like his Biography.

[Bastion]

Should we start pre planning how our characters are going to meet up?

@Animal

In a bar, clearly. XD

@Rin

That might work out, except that my character doesn't like enclosed spaces, since he's usually too big to fit without breaking things, haha. He'd have to wait outside. :) But then, he's in the army, so maybe he's posted nearby on guard duty, and there's some sort of ruckus in/near the bar that needs breaking up?

@Bastion

He can be a bouncer xD

[jdh97]

It is necessary for our characters to all meet up, or could there be multiple smaller groups,or maybe even just individuals, that the GM can then herd in the same general direction for chance of future interaction? This saves waiting for posts, and for events transpiring too quickly before a relevant character has a chance to respond.

@jdh97

That works too! I actually like this idea more xD It will give us an insight on everyone's posting schedule and allow us to work around that xD

@jdh97

That's probably a better idea, plus in helps work together different sorts of backstories a bit more naturally.

[MonkeyBusiness]

Now comes the problem with deciding which characters meet up right away and which ones meet later on.

[Water Akira]

Yeah that's a good idea. What I have planned so far is that everyone will meet up at the very beginning, and then depending on how many people we have, we may have two different groups so it will be convenient for everyone.

[Animal]

I have a funny feeling that someone is going to be snoozing on Brugo's back very often xD

Haha, I can well imagine! He probably wouldn't mind too much. :3

[Aura Lodestone]

hey!!! how did you know?

[Rin]

Jolokia's a wandering swordswoman, so it shouldn't be too difficult to have her show up in the beginning at least. XD

[Aura Lodestone]

Aura is a wandering 100 year old kid, he could get lost and just end up bumping into them by coincidence

[Water Akira]

Aura, your character is cool! Feel free to put your character in the Character tab anytime.

[Aura Lodestone]

now all we do is wait for someone to start it all, well for Akira to start it up then we start gathering through coincidence or whatever anyways time to take a breather I think my bio looks super long lol then again we have one guy with a very huge pic also lols
