There is a PM folder labeled 'Trash" if you go to your PMs. It is on the left side of the screen when you enter your PMs.
Does anyone know if there is an age limit?


The only age limit which exists is in the 18+ age limit for 1x1s with Mature content. Other than that, there is no limit.

I will start working on the first IC post sometime here soon after I finish my own Character sheet. If you are making a sheet, do not worry about rushing. If you have yet to move a sheet to the Characters Tab, please do so as soon as possible. For those of you who have done their sheet, moved the sheet, and are waiting, thank you for waiting.
Taken care of mate.
Yeah, just provide a link and it can be moved.

A character likely to die if they even enter combat with a monster and having performed thing in the past which are certainly questionable and likely to have killed him? Accepted. Nah, just joking. Denied.
@Mag LevI think I might pick Galet Slott as my char's homeland; is it cool if I write that "Rilia" region up as a relatively independent elven land? I'm also wondering how far the three major nations' borders go, and who has dominion over most of that big western peninsula.


About as far west Uder Stun would Aurelion territory, though not part of the empire technically. My idea is that he Elves came from the west a long time ago and integrated with many of the people, some setting up a small nation on the end of the peninsula pass Uder Stun while others maintaining independence as city states in the Rilla region.

Weaknesses: Minimal of 3

  • His exposed chest is an easy weak
  • point past his natural armor, being cold blooded cold environments hinder him greatly and can be potentially fatal.
  • Long range combat can be a bit of a struggle as all he can do is attempt to close the distance or defend himself.
  • Being cold-blooded, cold environments and attacks similar to that affect are especially effective against him.
  • He is not a good talker, both with a heavy accent of what would be described as a demon trying to speak like a human, and his poor understanding of the english language.


Psychological Attributes

Trait * Trait * Trait * Trait


Sexuality: Male
Relationship Status: N/A For now
Personality: Jackal was a proud warrior of the Westari Clan, upholding honor as he fought mercilessly against others of his own race that were not of his tribe. Compared to other Gorgas's though, he was easy to talk to and socialize within his own tribe. He enjoyed hunting animals as a hobby, which sometimes translates over in his fights with more intelligent creatures.
Jackal, since the death of his tribe, has been scarred by the loss, and becoming much more reclusive. He is a creature of few words and only acts when he feels he needs to. But beneath that quiet and patient demeanor, is a thirst for bloodshed, which he will happily inflict upon the monsters that plagues this world.

While he may show off a few times when he gets lost in combat, he is overall a humble warrior, and respects all others who follow a similar path, be it less violent or of another race entirely. While difficult to talk to, once a bond is made he will never betray an ally or a friend, but expects the same devotion from others as well. Should one perform such a dishonor would translate to a rage without mercy.
Habits: Minimal 2

  • He has an acquired taste for flesh, particularly racial flesh such as elves, orcs, humans, and other Gorgas. He hides this tendency as he is self conscience of how the others will see it as taboo, and it is almost more of an addiction.
  • Prolongued combat can drive him into less of a civil warrior and more of a savage beast, especially when wounded or provoked enough.

Hobbies: He loves to collect gold and other valuables from defeated foes or as rewards for jobs. Additionally, he loves to hunt, mostly wild creatures, but sometimes he tends to hunt more intelligent prey as well. That being said he very much enjoys nature.
Fears:

  • Loss, he cannot stand loosing another loved one, should he make one again. Another reason for his reluctant communication. He cannot stand the emotional pain that comes with loss, such things can drive him mad and scar him deep, naturally fearing such a fate and would sooner die then to experience it again.
  • Illness. Experiencing his own tribe being wiped out by the Dragonsbane Virus, seeing anyone remotely ill stricken can cause him great worry and dismay. He does not like the idea of dying at anytime other then in combat, especially a slow and painful demise that could make someone so weak and helpless all the while. Part of the reason why he now interacts with the rest of the world as a mercenary is in hopes of finding a cure to the virus that threatens him.
  • Winter. The season itself brings out the cold conditions that cold-blooded creatures such as Jackal despise. Cold elements and enviorments discourage him emotionally as well as weakening his vitality overall. Like diseases, he is terrified of the thought of dying in the cold, alone and frozen. Should he ever get caught in such an environment, he will go to extremes just to keep warm.


Likes: 6 minimal

  • Extreme temperatures
  • Hunting
  • Nature
  • Soothing Music
  • Treasures of any value
  • Fighting
  • Shed season
  • Nightfall (and dark environments)


Dislikes: 6 minimal

  • Other Gorgas
  • Cold conditions
  • Deceit
  • Weakness
  • Cowardice
  • Unholy Abominations


Skills

A listing of skills, such as horseback riding, and natural abilities, such as night vision - this also includes any racial edges



  • Skill: Close quarters combat; His natural weaponry and durability (Claws, speared tail, fire breath, etc) combined with his brutish strength can easily overpower even monstrous foes. More over, his combat style varies between his moods. In a more calm demeanor he can be quiet skillful with his sword, but in a further enraged state he will forego traditional swordplay for brutish swings and similar tactics, making him hard to predict. His racial strength and size are factors to look into.
  • Skill: Hunting; His natural vision (eyes that can glow in the dark) and the strength of his smell from his forked tongue makes him an excellent tracker, and his experience as a younger since a hatchling has given him a talent to stealth in various natural environments despite his monstrous size.
  • Skill: Hand Crafting Equipment: With the right materials he can makeshift primitive tools and wares such as tents or stone spears. If having access to metal and molten liquids he can even hand craft various metal weaponry of his design, albeit not as structured or good as more traditional and advanced techniques.
  • Skill: Bravery: Even with his fears, he is not afraid of death itself, and in combat such fears would usually only make him fight more aggressively then flee. While this in of itself may result in victory or loss, it is difficult to intimidate him.
  • Skill: Wise with Age: Being so old, he has much experience with the natural world and both its wonders and horrors, he a sound mind despite going into a few enraged states here and there, aside from angering him there are few other things that can taint his conscience. Rarely does he act brashly outside of fighting tactics.
  • Skill: Protector: Fearing loss, he will be sure that he will be injured before an ally. Sooner he die then someone he is assisting. Allies that are near him should expect him to be a giant shield.
  • Fire Breather: As a racial Trait he can breathe jets of flames from his mouth.

I purposely let the History be a bit dry for more room, to expand in the RP. That and more time for inspiration to occur.


Also accepted.
My CS is done.



I like him, move him on over.
Potions are a more recent invention to Vindervall due to the preference of natural healing long before the arrival of magical plants as well. Some of these plants when mixed with others promote healing thus Healing potions were formed. An average healing potion that heals basics wounds would cost about 1 silver to buy from most vendors. The quality of the potion may vary with price and the size changes price as well. A large healing potion of high quality may very well cost around 25 silver a potion but it rarely used for anything less than deadly wounds. The secondary type of potions are Focus potions, similar to mana potions were mana a real thing. Focus potions extend the amount of mental energy and physical energy the consumer has and is mostly used by Casters. Rather than being seen as a near immediate reaction, like that of a Healing potion, a focus potion takes a little while to take action but lasts longer. Its average cost is around 5 silver for a good potion or 1 silver for a lesser quality potion.

So what exactly can runes be used for other than establishing magical barriers? It seems that's their primary purpose, although when compared with the possibilities of elemental magic's utility, it seems rather limited.


My basic ideas is that runes can create magical barriers on buildings. They can also be set up in a circle around an area to act as an early warning system in case a foreign entity crosses the border of the runes. On top of that, it likely could be used for more complex magic by a person who has focused on training to do it. The more complex magic would likely include setting traps with runes which could be explosive, enchanting magical properties to normal weapons to allow damage to ethereal monsters, or further. The limit of runes falls within the same idea that it will drain the cast physically and mentally as well as having to place a rune which, for that matter, could easily be removed by accident of someone smart enough to notice it and its affects from afar.

Question: Where on the map is Emperor's Retreat?


If you go to the far right corner of the map and zoom in then scroll up slightly, Emperor's Retreat is in the center cluster of several towns including Fallenwood City and Castle Dagger.
