Depp seems like a neat character, what kind of setting would you be willing to play with her in?
So, I just posted a few points of interest. That should be a decent start. I may add more as we go along, but still feel free to submit your location ideas to me. I'm also thinking of adding a rumors section. This would be the news that's floating around the village that we can assume your characters would have heard. It might be a good way to reveal potential plot points while still keeping the sandbox feel to the RP. What do you guys think?
We can probably expect the IC to be up tomorrow night. I still want to create the points of interest for the village, and I'm waiting for one more person to submit their CS. If you guys are bored, though, you could always create some points of interest of your own. Pretty much anything goes as long as it doesn't break the game somehow or contradict with the lore I posted. Feel free to make the village your own.
Looks good Sharnid. Just keep in mind that you won't necessarily be able to influence other people's characters or any important NPCs that may pop up with your music ability. You can suggest things that a character might feel, but the end result is up to the players.
Edit: And Forsythe, looks good. I'm just going to nitpick and say change "blinded for a few minutes" to "several seconds." Even 10 seconds is a long time to be blinded. If you don't believe me, hit a punching bag for ten seconds and imagine how much damage that would do lol.

Looks good Buried!

Forum: 1x1 Interest Checks
Sorry for the long wait, but I finally have a chance to breathe. My character's name will be Telio. Though born a prince, he did not allow himself to become spoiled by the life of luxury that his status afforded him. Not satisfied with simply learning what was written in books, he enlisted as a soldier, much to his father's chagrin, to see the conflicts of the world first hand. He gave one order as a prince to his commanding officer: treat me as you would any other soldier. And so his ass was kicked, and he was humiliated with his comrades in the military training, but he emerged from the trials a stronger man, and one that was adored by the citizens. He distinguished himself on the battlefield both with his blade and with his martial tactics, and became called "The People's Prince," for he was the one nobleman willing to sully his hands with the common man.
After completing a respectable term of duty, he set his eyes even farther away from home. He took up the craft of cartography and set off to fill in all those nasty blank spots in the kingdom's maps. He would return with gifts from faraway lands, bizarre weapons, and precious gems. But among all of his treasures, he was most drawn to the sapphire. Scholars said that they were magical stones with untapped power. Telio took to dabbling with the stones between his trips, but from what he could discern, the blank spots on his maps were only growing bigger...

Name: Garoth Brightwing
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Appearance:
Occupation: Guardian and Craftsman. He’s the man people turn to for all those little items that they need made (or fixed).
Skills: Garoth has a fine eye for detail, which is why he excels at smaller projects. Fixing a wobbly chair, smoothing out splintering wood, or just making a fashionable engraving on a perfectly functional item. It is this meticulous nature, though, that often causes him to fall behind on larger projects. He is also able to work repairs on metal items, but has neither the skills nor resources to build them from scratch.
Powers: The Brightwing family has inherited the ability to transform into a griffin. Every Brightwing has this ability, but few have mastered it to the degree that Garoth has. In a matter of seconds, he can transform into the mythical beast at will. This process is relatively painless for Garoth and he can maintain the form indefinitely, but if he is severely injured he will revert back to a human. In addition, he can harness some of the creature’s power while in human form. With concentration, he can acquire eagle-like vision, a vice-like grip, or inhuman swiftness for brief moments.
Inventory: A silver locket with the Brightwing family crest engraved in it – an elegant wing.
History: In the past, the Brightwing family had been at the forefront of the fights against the malevolent gods. Whenever a clan or village wanted to stand up against oppression, the Brightwings were there. And it cost them dearly. Generations of hopeless battles brought the once prolific family to the brink of extinction. Garoth’s grandparents became the last living members of the clan, and rather than throwing their bloodline away in one last battle, they decided to retreat.
The Brightwings’ arrival at Kado village was a mixed bag of emotions. On the one hand, the village would be graced with the citizenship of a strong and renowned bloodline; they were sure to contribute their fair share to the community. On the other hand, was the outside world such a lost cause that these once brave warriors were now ready to quit? Even so, the Brightwings were welcomed into the village and earned a good reputation among the citizens.
Garoth grew up on stories of the glory of his ancestors, but like everyone else of his generation, he had never seen a real battle. The Brightwing family is on a comeback, and Garoth has many cousins, but none have come close to his level of control over their griffin abilities. Garoth wears his family name with pride, was an overachiever in school, and still continues to work hard on even the most menial tasks.

@Forsythe: It looks good. I just want you to be a bit more specific about what moon powers she has. I don't want the moon to become a deus ex machina that can get her out of literally any situation. To what extent does her healing magic work? Exactly what offensive abilities does she have? What defensive abilities does she have?
@Zombehs: Looks good, and nice back story. Accepted.
@BuriedComic7: I like the clan's history, but perhaps you could write a bit about Kawaru as well. What was it like growing up in a dying clan? What kind of reputation has he built in the village?
@Gokiburi7: I like the character. Just give me a bit more description in the appearance.

Not a problem. I'll try to put my own CS up tonight.
