@Dannyrulx Haha, looks like I'm too late to be the only girl, but that's just as well. The Raia base char would shut down just about everyone. Brutally, in many cases. Better to have someone else around so she doesn't start killing people. ^.^;;
I would like to know just how far into the mythic we are going. I'm usually in rps with higher magic, but I can adjust fairly easily. I mostly need to know because Raia's original version is...not entirely human. Not hard to get rid of, and I have in the past. In fact, my latest character is a vengeance driven wholly-human version of her. Someone killed her twin. She got nasty very, /very/ quickly. <.< But Alys with her twin still alive is a little less violence-happy.
She's actually drawn a little on Indy, though it wasn't deliberate, and happened because the rp she's from had a few different ruins-spelunking missions. Raia, at age eleven or so, became interested in magic anthropology, and eventually went on to teach at a local college. Her true passion is reconstruction of the way magic impacted ancient cultures. Now, if magic isn't exactly.../known/, then this puts a kink in things, so let me work through this in text.
Right, so instead of magic anthropology, it'd probably be either regular anthropology, or something like folklore and mythology with an anthropological bent. Probably the latter, actually. Still a professor, and her focus would still be magic anthropology if there's enough knowledge maintained that some people know about it. Her background is usually tightly entwined with people who are familiar with such things. Are there any modern groups still employing magic with any effect? Might be her hated father was either originally from a cult and split off on his own, or perhaps carrying on family teachings. It'd explain how she's aware, and further how she knows about it, and how she kept learning more over the years. Perhaps not /active/ study of spells and rituals, but certainly in a research capacity. I'll need to reduce the background issues, of course, but...yes. Turn her mentor from a demon to a human and the various other nonhuman races likewise to human, a few tweaks, and yup, this would definitely work.
*wiggles happily* Nobody's been posting anywhere, lately, though it looks like they might be returning. Still, it's left me hungry for a good rp, and I really could use another group one. This looks like just the thing. I'm glad I stumbled across your interest check! Although I should have been faster typing this up. *eyes her clock* <.< It's been a long day, and I got /very/ distracted. I do that. x.x And really, I should be in bed now. ^.^;; So yeah, can't put a sheet together, but I'll be looking for a ping back in the morning, most likely. <3 And I should have time to get it mostly together in the next...*eyes schedule* ...ehhh, tomorrow is dress rehearsal for choir. That's like my entire evening. And I have to see the dentist in the morning -- a filling cracked, like two days after I got it. Not cool, but what can you do? That means I don't know if I'll have time tomorrow to get a sheet together following feedback, but I will have time Saturday. I don't usually have quite this much of a life. ^.^;;
Oh! as a note, I can't be a leader as a bad guy, and I can't promise to be hate-their-guts evil. But I can do a good slightly-crazy, a good reluctant, and probably a misguided. Or someone blackmailed or even magic-ritualed into helping. ^.^ I'm not good at true evil, but I've got some of the lighter grey shades down well enoguh to play a decent minion. Or even a trusted lieutenant, perhaps. <3 If you need 'em.
Random note about a squishy doctor here. In case people need medical aid...don't know if you'd have any interest in this. Probably wouldn't do him as my only character, but he's great as the conscience and dangerously altruistic Heart for a party. Just don't let him get himself hurt too badly trying to be a good guy. <.< Really, he needs Malie, but I don't think an invisible soul-eating demon girlfriend (it makes sense in context? ^.^;; ) fits well here. So he's probably going to get hurt.
Anyhow. Bed now. *flops off to bed*
