Who's up for a good fight? See me if you like Jurassic Park, Mortal Kombat, and Cthulhu Mythos in one.
Bio
I prefer group RPs and cooperation in between players. Usual characters are superhumans, half-human hybrids, cynics, and Nietzscheans. Usual settings are civil wars, blood feuds, and/or outside-context problems.

Welcome back! I do hope you enjoy your new stay.
By tomorrow afternoon, I'll get the party started if people get impatient. Otherwise after tomorrow.
Reviewing the character group so far. Great! Though it seems I may be the only Asasiyun for now. I'll wait just a little longer before the whole fun starts.

Hmmmm, this looks interesting
Jump into the OOC if you like. It's right here as a reminder.
Welcome to the guild! I do hope you enjoy your stay.
I deliver on my promises. IC and OOC will be right here!
During the Crusades, the Christians and the Muslims clashed for the holy land. As expected, both sides fought valiantly. The Templars and the Asasiyun, knowing that all successful warfare was based on deception, allied with each other in the shadows. Tricking their enemies into thinking both factions were at war, they instead attack mutual enemies.

I will use my own GMPC as an example. DSW is the co-GM and his own PC will also be a good example. If I'm not around, you may fall back on him for questions if needed.
Name: Faridah al-Buladi
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Faction: Asasiyun
Bio: The daughter in a Blacksmith family, she was one of her father’s few surviving children. Her father, Masoud, ensured that the family never starved despite modest riches. One day in his career, Masoud received a hefty order of armaments from a mysterious party. As he was offered plenty of money for the order, the smithy and the employees realized who they were dealing with. The Asasiyun have revealed themselves to the humble blacksmith! Flabbergasted by their appearance to the humble smith, he complied with their order, and asked them for payment to train his eldest daughter even though his pay would be reduced. A favor for a favor was the done deal. The Asasiyun got their weaponry while Masoud al-Buladi got education for his daughter. The sons were either dead, dying, or too young.
Faridah eventually was accepted into the order, being trained and educated under the Asasiyun. Stunning her male colleagues, Faridah reached to the high ranks faster than expected. To her, the maxim was correct: Nothing was an absolute reality, everything is permitted.
Personality: Proving herself as both pinnacle of the Asasiyun AND exception to the rule, she has a smart aleck demeanor until one earns her respect and trust. Faridah in battle tends to prefer planning rather than going head on. She thanks her father for sending her to the Asasiyun for training. As an adult with a no-nonsense demeanor, she is dedicated to the cause and its allies.
Strengths: She is athletic and skilled in tasks requiring precision. For combat, she is skilled with throwing for range and combat with one handed weaponry. Her abilities include stealth, pickpocketing, and lock picking. Faridah is also very skilled as a side-line striker.
Weaknesses: Averse to wanton slaughter, she has difficulty fighting multiple opponents. Also, Faridah has difficulty with two-handed weapons and armor, which would restrict movement. She would not fare as well as the heavier fighters during the front lines.
Appearance (words or pictures, though a picture says a thousand words):
Out of Uniform
In uniform
Other: 6’2, 140 lbs, nicknamed or codenamed “Zarafah” (Giraffe) for her physique, though she doesn’t take it as a compliment.

A Byzantine character aligned with the Templar or the Asasiyum possible?
Byzantines were around by the time of the crusades. So yes. You may.
Now that I have a healthy amount of interest, I shall do the IC and OOC tomorrow. I never knew that I'd be flooded.
Welcome to the guild! I do hope you enjoy your stay.

Oh no. We have not taken to the official OOC yet. PM me for any questions. I also frequent the IRC.
Reviewing your character, it is improbable (if not impossible) that a nine year old by today's standards would be allowed to participate in war. We did recommend the 18-21 range. You might want to do your homework on the subject. There will be not just combat, but also political intrigue. Also for women, there would be included in this RP as "exceptions to the rule" and treated as such. In a practical sense, they would never let her into battle. Reasons being is that she's too young to die. If her age was doubled, your character might be a whole different story. Also, it would be likely that Lily would be a background type rather than outright main character unless you expand or refine the CS. The OOC will have a more in depth review.
I apologize if I sound too judgemental. I just find the set up of your character sheet not very pragmatic. Because if you list six in medieval years, that means nine in today's years. Also, your character cannot be truly neutral in an RP with good amounts of political intrigue. Very dirty business for little children. Also, keep in mind that the main players are Europe and the Middle East for now.
TLDR: Do some research and refine the character for official usage.
