Melkor — Roleplayer Guild

Now, I clicked just to see what this was all about, as I always am interested in Steampunk even if I don't really write MxM stories. However, upon reading your opening post and how you're reacting to players who are interested in your RP, it's safe to say you don't understand how this forum works. Yes, I can see you only have 3 posts in the last few days, but you really should look around at other RP's and read the guides. That way you're not acting angry or getting pissed at possible writers interested in your RP. You are posting in the Casual Interest Check, which is for people that have at least some structured RP experience/good writing ability and forming group roleplays of 3 or more players. The way you wrote this all out seemed like you wanted more of a 1x1, which is fine, but that has it's own respective section of the forum and its own rules as well. A big rule you broke was getting angry and being a tad venomous to Hawlin and Agent, who were merely asking you questions on the RP. As a GM you need to be able to answer questions, as well as be able to compose yourself without being an ass. Now, as for character making, which seemed to be the questions the other two were asking, you should have a CS up. Often times on this forum, people show interest in an RP, then will post a CS to see whether it falls into line with the story the GM wants to tell. Sometimes, people may post a CS just to test the waters, see if that will ensure them a spot, especially if an RP is getting a lot of interest checks on it from other writers. If you take anything from this, just be nice and don't get angry with your fellow Guildmates, especially if they are simply asking questions on the RP. As a once avid RPer, a big part of any successful RP is a good GM, and from the way you reacted to people asking simple questions shows you aren't prepared to really take the reins of an RP. Also, don't take my post count at face value, I was RPing on this site for around 2 years before it crashed, as well as having RP'd on several other sites before this. So around 8 years of RPing on play-by-post forums.

I compliment you, sir.

Name: Alphazar Age: 32 Gender: Male Race: Human Class: Wizard Home Plane: Unknown Plane - Ultidor Colors: Red and Blue Personality: Alphazar is quiet, he doesn't speak much unless he feels that he may contribute to the discussion. This is not to mean that he is not intelligent, he is, this means that he try's to choose his words with careful consideration. Alphazar believes in focusing all of his efforts on whatever he is working on. Alphazar is patient, he has no qualm with explaining his point to others, he doesn't expect everyone to understand what his meaning is, at least not immediately. History: Alphazar was born in Ultidor, the City of Stones, where the guardians of the plane meet to discuss expansion and war within the plane. The plane, unknown to the rest of the multiverse, was lead by a planeswalker - Maxathas, thought by the citizens of the plane to be an immortal god. This planeswalker made it his business, aside from leading, to destroy any potential planeswalkers before their spark ignited. This, of course, was difficult because planeswalkers are rare and their sparks usually ignite when they are endangered, so his plan was not very well thought through. Alphazar lived in the slums of Ultidor, as many did. It was all they could afford seeing as the citizens had been taxed more and more of late. They were told that it funded the war efforts against those who the people had never seen. Alphazar lived with his mother, brother and two sisters for years, after his father was taken to be made a soldier in the unending war. Needless to say, they’d never seen him again. Alphazar was one of the few who could use charms, he enjoyed playing with it. Most forms of magic were banned in Ultidor and Alphazar knew this but he enchanted and charmed objects anyway. He found it entertaining, he was also rather young - eleven at the time. Maxathas’ spies saw Alphazar charm a flute in his home, causing it to levitate and play a merry tune. They took him to Maxathas’ palace. In Maxathas’ great room, he determined that Alphazar could be a possible planeswalker, one whose spark hadn’t ignited yet - he took care in not alerting the boy to his actions. He thought it best to not use magic in his execution seeing as that could possibly ignite his spark. He took a sword from his chambers and went back to Alphazar. He lifted his sword and brought it down, only to find that Alphazar was no longer there - he had planeswalked away. Suddenly, Alphazar found himself, unbeknownst to him, in Alara. There, he witnessed the five shards reuniting and the maelstrom that followed. In the heart of the energy he saw a dragon, something he’d never seen before. It was Nicol Bolas. He felt endangered again, and indeed he was. He planeswalked to innistrad where he, almost immediately, found himself meeting Tamiyo, the Moon Sage. She recognized that he was a newly found planeswalker and, after establishing that he had no idea where he was, took him back to the Moonstone Tower, where she told him what she knew about planeswalkers, explaining that he was one of these, powerful, beings. She helped him hone his own abilities - on Ravnica they would be called Izzet abilities. Tamiyo saw that the boy expressed an interest in learning more about the world around him, he was also particularly interested in how he could walk from one plane to another. She explained the ability a planeswalker possesses to magically travel between planes, into the Æther, the matter between planes known as the Blind Eternities, unharmed and appear in another plane. Alphazar was very interested in the Æther and began studying as much as he could into it. When Alphazar turned twenty three, he had already been learning from Tamiyo for over a decade, he thanked her and planeswalked to his home, Ultidor. There, he challenged Maxathas who had aged since their last meeting, but the old planeswalker hadn’t learned anything since then - he never left Ultidor. Maxathas accepted Alphazar’s challenge. Maxathas’ magic revolved around summoning creatures, from other planes, to do his bidding. During their battle, Maxathas summoned a multitude of creatures and ordered them to attack Alphazar. The younger planeswalker promptly unsummoned them and cast an Æther enchantment, Maxathas found that he was unable to summon any more creatures - he cast a lightning spell at Alphazar who had raised his staff, which he had recovered from a ruin he found on Ravnica, when he and Tamiyo visited there, and embedded the Reflecting Mirror in it. The lightning was reflected back toward Maxathas, who did not know how to counter it. The planeswalker who had ruled for so long, was slain. Alphazar returned the rule to the people and planeswalked to Ravnica, where he decided to stay with the Izzet - not as a member, but as a guest of Niv-Mizzet, who had recognized his intelligence. Years later, Alphazar was invited to join The Infinite Consortium anew. Style: Alphazar can fight on the front line, he may also fight from afar. While fighting, he casts flames and lightning as offensive spells. For physical defense, he summons fogs and walls to block creatures. If he is under attack, he may use the aether to unsummon creatures and counter spells - he may also prevent creatures from being summoned. He uses his staff, and the Reflecting Mirror, to redirect spells and to deal damage to the caster. He doesn't use it very often, but he has the ability to unleash a wave of fire, destroying everything on the battlefield, with the exception of planeswalkers. Alphazar also has the ability to enchant and charm. Major Spells- Tier One Spells:
