Avelierys - Original Fantasy World (CLOSED - Indefinite hiatus)

Alexandra arrived in Averine a few days ago and though she never liked singing to the "filth" of the city, the only tavern that would take up on her offer to sing for a few nights instead of paying for her room and food was the one at the docks.
This could be hardly called a "tavern" by all accounts but it had a small stage set up for desperate bards from which to sing from. Opening her window in the morning, she noticed something that she never liked. It was raining. Rain would mean that the people that may search for adventurers for hire might not be around or that only the worse jobs will be offered but nothing will stop the Siren. Rain also meant that she had to wear her leather armor and a robe to hide her lute under and protect her from a cold. Illness and bards, even ex-bards didn't go hand to hand.
Quickly dressing up so that she wouldn't miss out most of the morning, she went down the stairs of the tavern and moved with purpose, ignoring some of the patrons that were still at their tables either drunk or sleeping.

" I'll be staying a few more nights most likely so I'll be singing some more. " Alexandra said without bothering to wait for a reply from the innkeeper. She knew that he wouldn't refuse her, patrons drank more and 'thus spent more when a bard was performing.

She went towards the door and saw a man cleaning his hair in the rain, shook her head and moved past him. Someone was screaming his lungs off about a job for sellswords and she knew this was her chance. She approached the man and smiled at him warmly.

" Good morning my dear soldier! I do hope that you have an extra place for the Siren to take, right? "

My Hider

Character Name: Alexandra "Siren" Flores
Species: Human
Sex: Female

Physical Description:

Remove the scar, add a lute,change her hair to red and her eye color will be green and you'll have The Siren

Profession: Ex-Bard, Adventurer for hire
Starting Equipment/Belongings: A purse that holds 29 Bells and 67 Shards, a lute, a short sword, leather armor with a hood, a backpack which holds provisions
History: As it is with all stories there are two ways to see them. To understand the Siren's story, one must know how Alexandra's story ended and how the Siren's started.
Alexandra was born the daughter of an innkeeper and his wife. From a small age, Alexandra could be seen running up and down the stairs of the Inn, talking with strangers and sometimes playing games with some. Her voice was a wonder to those with which she talked with and the pride of her parents.
At the age of 13, her parents built her a small stage from where she could sign and delight the various patrons. Her success was aparent from the start and soon patrons would come only to hear her "magical" voice.
When her parents died, Alexandra sold the Inn and took up the profession of The Bard.
5 years later, at the age of 25, Alexandra sang at most of the inns in the land. On her 6th year, her true story began.
While playing for a caravan that would've led her to the capital and her first concert there, the caravan was attacked by bandits. It is not known exactly what happened then but at the end of the attack it is said that the caravan didn't lost a man despite being outnumbered. Stories would soon roam the taverns that a single woman saved the caravan. Some of them say that the woman lulled the bandits to sleep with her "magical" songs, others say that she killed the bandits with her screem, while other claim that the woman convinced the bandits to leave the caravan alone. Even as diverse the stories as they were all agreed that the Siren was the reason why no one died and so the "Siren" was born.
Alexandra abandoned her profession soon after and became an adventurer for hire. Her encounter with the bandits changed her forever and adopting her new alias went on her quest.
Her story continues even today and what will happen in the future is not yet known but one thing is certain, the Siren's name will be known by all.

@Winterwake That's it. I hope you like her. Personally, I fell in love with her already and I can certanly say that she is perhaps, one of the best characters I've written so far.

@Grec What life ? xD

And not. I am not :)

Civilization - A New End (2.5)

@Chenzor

NS

Nation Name: The Trading Imperium

Represented Color: Gold

Race: Halfling

Features: Low strength, High Diplomacy, Medium intelligence, small, average reproduction rate

Capital: Coinshire

Ruler: William Orbcoin (using the halfling name generation, they say this is a proper halfling name)

Type of Government: Family dictatorship

Religion: The Trading Emporium has a nationwide belief in Tychos the God of Trade. By making offerings to him every month, they believe that the God will give them favorable trades.

Geographical Location:

History: The Trading Emporium was made a thousand years ago by Veski Orbcoin, a halfling that was supposed to be Tychos's avatar on the planet.Veski living 'till the age of 120 and left a big number of descendants that continued to build the trading emporium they now have.
William Orbcoin is one of the many direct descendants that left the safety of the Trading Emporium to establish a new branch in the family business in yet-undiscovered lands so that he could prove himself in from of Tychos.
He took with him a group of men and women and went on his journey.

Don't know why but when I wrote the NS, Gnome = Halfling = Hobbit in my mind. Changed the roman names to something more halfling-like, sorry...big fan of ancient Rome xD
How does it look now?

This galaxy isn't yours! - The reboot

@LegionPothIX Youtube link to a gameplay video showcasing the Goo race

They are basically nanotech "creatures" designed by humans to scout the unknown parts of the galaxy, find life on other planets, record their existence and then send back the information to Earth (or space base etc) but as the nanotech grew in number they became sentient.

This galaxy isn't yours! - The reboot

@LegionPothIX Nice race idea. It is similar in nature with the Grey Goo race from the Grey Goo game (I know, I know...) and then combined with the Star Trek idea. Really nice, great job in creating them :)

@Grec Now that is a proper post size ! Could've been bigger but that would've been just me dragging away the post too much...I guess.
