I've been on here since before the fall, way back when I was a middle schooler. It seems a lot more slow paced on here then it once was. I'm also old now soooo maybe that is it.

OMG!!! Thanks to the Wayback Machine, I've found all my Characters, and RPs before the guild fall! Pure JOY!
Sorry for the double post but I’ve got a few questions.
The letter that was delivered, and the strange magic hand sigil. How would this work in ya’ll opinion/imagination, with a siren who just came into dry land, and can’t read. She would probably be freaking out about her hand, and having no clue about the letter. I have a idea I could write, but I’m not loving it. So I want to hear how others would write this or handle it.
Nope, she has be submerged in salt water to change fully back into a siren. If she is dry she is in human form. Fresh water doesn't change her only salt water. Even outside the water in human form their are some subtle signs that she's not all human. Like faint lines on her neck and the sides of her torso, where gills would be. Patches of iridescent scales appear under moonlight. Shimmery skin in general. Her eyes are a gold color. Blah blah.
Her clothes. A leather coin pouch containing: Dried Kelp, Shells, Pearls, Coral Beads, and gold from a sunken ship.
Age:
22
Personality:
Natawa is free-spirited and wants to experience all that life has to offer. She has always been a clever, intelligent and adventurous girl. She can be very blunt, and has a direct way of approaching things, mainly because she doesn't know the social constructs on land. She understands there is more to life than what you see and touch. She is secretive about her world, but that comes with being a Siren. She finds beauty in ordinary things. Do to her naivety about the world, she can come across and innocent and dumb, though she is anything but. She tends to give her trust freely, but once its broken she never fully forgives. Braking a promise to her is the worst possible thing, as its seen as a sin in Sirens terms.
Quick learner Can breath underwater Observant Adept in constitution magic Good eyesight
Weaknesses:
Clumsy on land Ignorant about the cultures, and customs on land Ice Can not read or write No fighting skills whatsoever
Fears:
The extinction of her people Dark Elves Death Pain
History:
Nimiane was born deep in the ocean off the southeastern coast of Penault. She and her family along with hundreds of other sirens became displaced as the toxic waters of Oceana Abyssal expanded into their region of the ocean. She grew up in a cove in and around the caves surrounding Oceana Abyssal. Unfortunately she was seven years old when a group of dark elf slavers raided the hidden cove. Natawa along with a dozen other sirens were taken. She was kept in a dungeon with the others for months. Things such as their blood, scales, tears, and hair were harvested bit by bit as dark elf mages tested the magical properties of Sirens. Rescue thankfully came, and she escaped with the surviving few.
She was taken in by a siren woman named Oona. Finding her parents became a impossibility, as the Oceana Abyssal toxic waters seeped into the migration paths between the oceans. If her parents were still alive they would have to cross deadly ocean, or land to find her. She and Oona lived deep down in the underwater cavern city the Sirens call Kembre. Over time it became a refuge for the influx of displaced and wary sirens running from the dark magic. Natawa and her friends spent their spare time in a Lagoon in the mountains near Brithomdale. This is were she would meet a Foreas boy, and learn the land language.
All the while the adults and leaders of the sirens debated the best course of action to save their people. The deadly waters were ever expanding. Even their innate shield magics could only do so much. Sirens were dying by the thousands, and many were left without the ability to change back into their true forms, thus land locked with legs in an alien world. Seeking the source of the poisonous water was and option, but others thought migrating to the Alexandrian ocean would be best.
The strongest sirens have been tasked with blending in with the landfolk, and learning their ways, and if possible finding the safest path to the Alexandrian ocean, or finding and eliminating the source of the toxic water. She volunteered to help, and has now been on dry land in human form for a day. After stealing something to wear off a clothes line she is semi dressed and observing her surroundings.

@Emma No don't worry about it! I hadn't planned on starting the IC today by any means! I just ended up having more time than expected and got a little work done.
It's totally okay for your character to be naive! Please don't worry about that. If you want some help or are unsure of how your character might interact feel free to ask me or the group as a whole! We're all here for a good experience.
You were one of the first people to express interest so I already have a spot reserved for you! If you aren't comfortable in the main party though that's totally cool! We'd love to have you in that though. Your character is honestly really interesting. Also, you're welcome to post a draft of the CS if you'd like
I’ll finish her up after work. Awesome OP for in the IC by the way. I like how different this is.
Ok I see now that I was to slow with my CS. I'm willing to become one of those reserve characters if thats ok. I'm still working on my third draft of a CS. I have the idea for my character, but I can't imagine how I would actually play her properly in the IC since she is so naive. Revising at the moment.
Hello people of the guild. I’m Emma. Games I like to play outside RP are: Sims 4, Rock Band, Harvest Moon, zoo tycoon, and tropico. I’m nerdy in the sense that I love marvel, Doctor who, Sherlock, k-dramas, and reading manga. I go to a renaissance festival every year all dressed up so I’m that person. Love European history. Big fan of mythology and folklore. I’ve been apart of this site since I was in middle school. I like a wide verity of genres, basically all of them except playing as canon, mecha, or arena fighting kind of stuff. I’m currently working in a dead end soul sucking job. I’m contemplating going back to school (for the fourth time). I’m also 23, and working on my CS for this RP.
