I honestly don't care what people think of me as long as a mutual respect can be reached to the extent of having fun with RP. :3

I'm not one to be a 'first post' type, but I guess that'll do since Kaite would have been genuinely paying so little attention to others that there wouldn't be much to base a post on. >_<
Lounging upon a pile of pillows, Kaite scrawled in a small hardcover book. With no title yet to be etched in the leather-bound wood panel, many would tease the concept as a diary. In his mind, all crimes should be recorded; a humanitarian at heart while wearing the skin of a hunter, the book's purpose was to depict the excursion in all of its gritty detail. Currently, he struggled with the first sentence which merely read, 'We survived the journey' since he dared not overstep the reality of their situation until he could plant his boots in the soil of the island. On top of this, the said journey was fairly uneventful by his standards. While there were a few uncomfortable run-ins with various associates on the ship, the term to denote comradery was vastly foreign to the diminutive hunter. In this, it wasn't until their superior known to Kaite simply as 'Reinham' spoke that they realized the depth of their objective isolation from most of the doings on the ship. Without even a porthole, he'd lost track of the time and over the eight-day stretch had accidentally both stayed up for almost a full day or two and slept about for about as much in singular instances.
In fact, the break of silence caught Sir Jericho by surprise, especially from Sir Reinham who'd otherwise remained motionless at his post with the occasional exception of physical necessities. It was because of their intimidating presence that Kaite lacked the will to emerge from the depths of the ship to view the spectacle of their seemingly endless ocean which the curvature of the world alluded to. His dreams and imagination filled the first few pages of his notebooks which sat holstered in the messenger bag next to him where he sat. Considering his deepest emotions towards the intangible force they floated upon during the sail, he was never seen without the bag as an effort to keep himself from curious eyes that he couldn't trust not to pry into his affairs while he wasn't present.
During the pause in his 'work' caused by the events at hand, he shifted his legs for the left to cross over the right knee. Eyepatch hanging around his neck and coat folded in quarters under his pack, he'd gotten quite comfortable. They gave a wave before sardonically remarking, "Iz all downhill from here!" they chirped, closing their book and slipping it in with the rest of varyingly filled scripture. "Only a matter to know whom you take vith, ah?" They continued with enough to their tone to come off as genuinely joking, accompanied by an equally convincing chuckle. In a strange sense, Kaite felt an unspoken connection towards Reinham whom they considered their current teacher; devout and strict to the letter, it was certainly something to write about if they had a chance to observe them doing something other than loom, spookily. The others were...troubling to explain. It was difficult to depict strangers, even after being around them for a week. One could never truly know someone unless they've seen them at their worst, and in that, Kaite was worried that any of them possessed the level of insight to see through his guise for what he really was. Even then, with the topic at hand, how well would they know the depth of what they thought they saw?
@Blue Demon It looks like its all pretty much where it should be. I was going to throw a pitch for either navigations or Chief of security, but I'm not 100% on if the character would have been approved, anyway. :T
So, so far Syrrus and Kaite are the only two who aren't outwardly zelots, it seems. Kinda curious what kind of character Conflagration will be playing as.
Kaite stands at a physically unimposing 5'4 runt save for a lean swimmer's tone. His hair is sheen with what seems like a silvery brown, it holds a slight wave to it and is usually worn longer than average, almost reaching their shoulders if the bulk wasn't tied up in a thick poneytail in the back. This leaves the front half to fall naturally. Their eyes hold a mint green hue that often appears muddy though brilliantly catches the light. A clean complexion paints him as being beautiful, though he secretly resents compliments as he tends to be mistaken for a woman. Kaite is often clad in regulation attire which, by appearance, take great pride in their work and care to upholding the image (Although comes off more adorable than respectable due to their build). An adaptation upon request is to add half an inch to the soles of his boots to make him seem that much taller...he is considering switching back due to looks he's reportedly been given. Adding on to this is a black and white plaid scarf of unknown significance though frequently totes the scent of various colognes and perfumes alike. This scarf is kept up to his nose to hide as much of his face as he can get away with.
Personality: Starting with the easiest summary, sociopathic. Where others broke and were built back up as hunters, Kaite broke and convinced himself relying on others wasn't what gave them strength. He came back slower than the others in his group, but many are certain he's still not entirely there. Frequent bouts of disproportionate bite in response to their treatment landed them in trouble a few times while still in training after injuring sparring partners. They're known to be cold and calculating, heavily influenced by logic which they use as a mask to hide the bitterness they feel towards general existence, especially other humans, in a nihilistic fashion. On the topics of masks, even with their violence considered, Kaite carries himself with a pleasant nature even in their own darkest moments but only until they feel genuinely threatened do the claws come out. It's obvious and disquieting how they frequently use emotion as a veil to keep themselves from others, while still coming off wholesomely approachable and even friendly in the best of situations. The tone and conveying of words wielded like a honed blade rather than of human nature. Aimed to cut where it can; he wants to fit in, but finds trouble opening up the way others do and often dodges topics about himself out of personal comfort. Kaite enjoys the company of women, though not in the physical sort. This is hinted to by the scents they adorn their scarf with, though it doesn't explain the cologne. Most attribute the scents towards making themselves appealing to the opposite sex...most are often wrong, as they wash and re-scent the scarf frequently. They have a stark fixation on water, more namable for its quality of being pure and nonjudgmental. This has carried over to be a love of aquatic life of all forms as well as a borderline heretical worship of an unspoken entity they find within it they refer to as "Distant Fish". While the tenants are akin to teachings, it differs in unsettling ways. He rarely mentions this, even in prayer, and instead the words slip barely under his breath in moment of distress in the way some would say "God damn".
Strengths: Kaite is exceptionally skilled with the rapier and most forms of slim swords, relying mostly on dexterity and timing rather than brute strength. To this note, keen reflexes have served him as well as his affinity for observational perceptiveness to either avoid or preemptively end confrontation before it rears its head...this is not without its drawbacks. Their nearly artistic appreciation for emotional application to reason has granted them a silver tongue which they often flaunt for the sake of intimidation and diplomacy alike, though only so much can be taken seriously from such a small man. Many would think him more suited to be a poet rather than a hunter.
Weaknesses: 'Physically unimposing', the term isn't thrown around lightly since most average joes with a labor job could easily win in an arm-wrestling contest let alone bench-press Kaite. Technology has never been his strong suit, and being a fast learner only helps him understand that which he can give a foundation to. Crossbows are about the most he can wrap his head around, usually. His admiration towards women sometimes clouds his judgment. A lightweight when it comes to alcohol, he appreciates a fine drink but can't handle more than a shot or two. Prone to violence and cruel measures to meet an end where diplomacy fails.
Equipment: -Kaite wears leather plating over undeservingly formal attire under their greatcoat. The ink staining that went into marring the leather black almost makes it look part of their attire if it weren't for obviously being armor. -A pappenheimer rapier with a ring of seashells crushed against the inside of the guard. -Runed knife. -Repeating hand-crossbow (compact 4-round magazine with foregrip cocking mechanism) -Vials of "Holy Water" (Normal water) Other: Wears an eyepatch on pirate principle (Keep one eye dilated so they can remove it when they enter dimly lit areas and have one eye already adapted to the darkness) Speaks with a slight "French" accent.
Subject to change. Edits1: Small additions to personality.
Clarification: The different tint of text in the race section (Or I guess all of it on review) is meant to denote races we cannot use? This is backed up by the age restriction in the CS-skele. I guess my question is if the Sha' are on the table as a playable race. Blah, I can manage as a human.
In the third paragraph(section) of the 'Welcome to Aldergard' section, the first sentance ends short. However, I imagine it spells out to be that you'll be hand-picking candidates for the rp.
@HawlinLike I said, you can't be named characters. You can be your own original creation, with their own personalities, etcetera.
I'm still not 100% on what you mean. Original characters, but we can't have names? No original universes, so...faceless goons from existing fandoms, but none of which can be actual mentioned characters?
