| AscensionThe Immortal Emperor The Story Welcome to the lands of Athevna, covered by sand and the sun, these lands arbor a civilization that prospers in great power and culture. Long ago these deserts were occupied by nomads and tribes who would quarrel against one another for territory and resources. Until one day one man appeared and took control over them, thanks to his great charisma and power he was able to unite all in this land. Under his control Athevna was born and the man would be called the Immortal Emperor. This was 200 years ago, through his leadership over the land this civilization prospered considerably. However, no one has seen the Immortal Emperor for almost a century now and some of the populace have began to doubt if he's still alive. Must believe that the emperor is resting in his grand palace, but in his absence a resistance has been built, known as the Rebels, they cause all form of problems that directly target the Immortal Emperor's control over the land. You are mercenaries who are hired for all kinds of work, some of you will enjoy, others you will regret, but ultimately fate will determine where you go in this time of doubt. Athevna - Spoiler:
Factions Immortal Emperor Everything and anything in Athevna is under the Immortal Emperor's control. So long as you walk on these lands you are welcome, however only the capital Vavel is trully under the Emperor's control. Those of these factions can be typicaly be sumarized as, the military, the nobles and the people. Rebels The organization that question the Emperor's power and see their right to strip him of it. Their location is unknown and their members are undistinguiable, however it is commonly accepted that they are in every city and town. Aimatos Lords Due they belong to the Immortal Emperor they operate independently of him. The lords of Aimatos, a mining camp, they are the lords of the underworld and the market. They control most of all trade routes and are notorious for their slave market. Some of these slaves aren't even from Athevna Mercenaries A small city called Miros hosts most mercenaries of these lands, although looked down for it's high number of mercenaries, it is the second safest city precisely thanks to these mercenaries. It is normally called by civilians as the City of Dreams because of all the people that travel to this city searching for the dream job. Dolofonos An old tribe that remained independent from the Kingdom of Athevna. The inhabitants are considered to be the best of hunters and mainly survive through hunting as even it’s water source comes from the blood of their preys. They are easily recognized by the permanent black paint that they spread over their body as a ritual for adulthood. A slave of a Dolof is the most valuable type of slave. Their culture also differs greatly from the rest. Q&A - Spoiler:
What type of rp is this? It's a fantasy adventure type rp set in a fictional world.
By fantasy you mean? Anything and everything related to that, magic, epic equipment, supernatural abilities, monsters among other things.
Will there also be other species? If by that you mean something not human you can rp as, then no. You can however have several differant races of humans such as a slave from another land, a natural from Athevna or etc... Due it's best you ask first before making it.
Will there be stats? I am working on a stat based system where depending on what number you have on a stat you will get differant results. Exemple: depending on your lvl of perception you may or not notice that the monster is sleeping. things like that to make everyone feel important and useful depending on the situation instead of the typical everyone sees and knows everything in any situation.
Do you have a plot in mind or will it be generally free roam? I will have a main plot that I will be attempting to make rpers follow, as you can already guess by the start that I was suggesting that rpers remain as a group. that said, ultimately people are free to do as they please, if you do not wish to partake in main plot and instead have other plans be it from becoming the king of the underworld or replacing the emperor you are free to do so. that said i cannot promise the quality to be the same as it would require me to mostly think on the spot at the start at least, the difficulty would also increase dramatically as you would not be working with the main group and would either be working alone or have to somehow find help from someone else.

| Concepts Magic Magic, sorcery, witchcraft or whatever you wish to call it is the art of imposing one's will into the world utilizing magical energy as a fuel. There are various forms of magic in all over the world however Athevna is known for it's complex variety in magic. Magic in Athevna works in a system of belief, so long as the user believes himself capable of performing such feats, he will achieve it. This requires a strong will and confidence to believe oneself of controling reality. As one can guess, those with weak wills will have difficulty using magic, if not outright impossible. Elemental Magic As one can guess it this category includes all forms of magic that involve around messing around with the elements. What are the elements you ask? Water, Fire, Wind, Earth and Lightning. These type of magic is the basic of all Athevna magic, without them majority of Athevna would not be what it is. That said these type of magic although straight forward can be quite dangerous at time as they are more powerful when close to their elemental, example: a water magician will be more powerful near a river than in the middle of the desert. Athevna Magic These are all other form of magic that result as variations from the elemental magic. They are rather diverse, existing almost hundred different forms, however most commons tend to be Healing, Hypnosis, Light, Dark among others. Due to the way magic works, to impose one's will into the world, there is almost a limitless different forms of Athevna magic. Dolofonos Magic The Dolofonos Magic works on a complete different system to the typical magic in Athevna, belief is not require in their magic, thus anyone in their bloodline can use it regardless of the will or power. Instead they use a system of sacrifices and destruction, providing materials to be destroyed to reach a desired result. Stats System Mental Your mental prowess, your capacity to control magic and resist it's effects, a very important stat if you wish to have powerful magic, but ignorable if you simply wish to be a combat oriented type. A single point in mental will allow you to pick a single elemental magic, with it you will be to control existing forms of that elemental at small scales. It will give you weak resistance to magic effects. Two points will allow you to control said element at a larger scale, while also able to create small quantities of that element. You may also instead make your own custom magic, this I will leave for your creativity. It will give you average resistance to magic effects. Three points will allow you free control of said element and also able to create that element in large quantities, you may also have an additional magic to support, be it custom or elemental. It will give you excellent resistance to magic effects. Physical Your physical prowess, your capacity to control your body in both strength, speed and endurance, a very important stat if you wish to be a powerful fighter, but ignorable if you don't want to be fighting head on. A single point will make you an average civilian's worth, you're neither good or bad. Two points will make you peak human, you can run faster than anyone, carry things nobody else can and endure pain no one would. Three points will make superhuman, at this point your faster than the eye can see, strong enough to lift boulders and tough enough to take on a monster alone. Speech Your charisma and leadership capabilities. How good are you at talking people into and out of stuff, how good are you at manipulating, and how good are you at resisting other's leadership. A single point make you an average human, you wont question one with a bigger stat then you, you are easy to control and listen to orders. Two points make a competent leader, you can convince most to do your actions, at the same time few can actually order you around without you allowing them. Three points make you a natural born leader, you exist to command and rule others, no one can disobey an order from you so long as it is does not conflict with them, you might even be capable of convincing people of killing themselves(joking). Perception How good are you at noticing details. The stat that allows you to perceive things other normally cannot. A single point will make you an average human, you barely notice the obvious much less small details. Two points will make you capable to noticing most details that happen in your surroundings and to same degree human's actions. Three points make an expert in details, you will find all details, be it from animals or humans or even up coming weather. Abilities Supernatural aspects that rare individuals or communities possess, said abilities are passive extras or improvements that your body is capable of doing naturally, though there are rare exceptions where abilities can be activated instead of always being active. Note that abilities are not common, they are rare and there should be some explanation as to where said abilities were gained. Known Abilities - Spoiler:
Sun Idol: Descendent of a line directly connected with the god of the sun. The ultimate being of perfection while under the sun, possess several abilities such as logevity, high regeneration, precognition among others.

Those of these blood cannot by under anyone's control no matter how much charisma that person may have, their stubbornness for freedom makes them incapable of following orders. At the same time, they are incapable of ordering others, they lack a clear characteristic in speech and will sound mostly as social incompetents. Speech stat cannot have points.
Dolofonos Blood: The blood of the hunter tribe, a tribe that survives through hunting results in it's people becoming monster hunters, unlike others, they do not train other to hunt, they are born as natural hunters.

Description Name: Echidna Gender: Female Age: 28 Appearance:
- Spoiler:
History: Not much is known about Echidna, except that spread by rumor. Some say she is the young widow of a man killed by the expansion of the Immortal King's forces. Others say she was once a captain in the King's forces herself. Rumors spread that she is obsessed with collecting rare and valuable weapons. All that people know for certain is that once she appeared in the guild as a mercenary, none were able to equal her. After establishing a notorious reputation, Echidna had the luxury of picking and choosing jobs that suited her tastes, all of which seem to originate in areas with rumors of valuable weapons. She has earned the alias "Edgemaster." Personality: Sarcastic and cutting, Echidna needs no friends and tends to show that. She can also be described as playful, in the way that a cat is playful with mice. She also seems to have a fascination for weapons - both for their lore and their uses. Occupation: Mercenary
Skills Magic: Wind - Echidna uses wind to augment her swords, extending the reach of their slash, and to maneuver herself in battle to increase her speed and agility Abilities: Eye of the Mind - an innate sense for perceiving the best options in battle, refined through many battles to an exceptional sixth sense Equipment: Venom and Viper - two kodachi with the center of the blades hollowed out to improve the aerodynamics, making them somewhat brittle to blunt strikes but exceptionally fast at slashing. Phobos - a thin, short katana used for foes that require a stronger, though no less refined, approach. It is a cursed blade that feeds off of the fear of its targets. Unnamed stash of weapons - Echidna has acquired many weapons in her travels, kept stashed in her secret lair, though they rarely see use.

- Spoiler:
History: An aspiring alchemist, Viser tutored from a young age under the renowned Argus the Wise, learning many of the sage's great secrets. Though he mourned the sudden death of the great mage several years later, Viser determined to use the knowledge his master had accumulated in order to rebuild the world. Though often preoccupied with his studies, he will occasionally take up requests at the Guild to acquire finances and ingredients for his research. Personality: Viser is a focus and determined young man, always more focused on results and getting to the point than in wasting time with trivialities and niceties. However, he displays kindness to all those he knows and is always eager to speak of plans and dreams for a better world. Occupation: Alchemist; part-time mercenary
Skills Magic: Alchemy - the ability to put magic to use in the creation of powerful items and machinery.

- All right, here are some rough character drafts.
Description Name: Roland Gender: Male Age: 38 Appearance:
- Spoiler:
History: Since he was young, Roland always dreamed of seeing the world and discovering the pleasures and wonders of every realm. He firmly believed that experiencing life was something you needed to do with every fiber of your being. He lived in different towns and countries, picking up on their cultures and ways, enjoying their delicacies and women. He picked up various sword styles and even learned of the magic of sigils from a renowned hermit in a far off land. He returned to his home land and became a mercenary, hoping for some opportunities to make money and continue experiencing life abroad. Personality: Roland is a boisterous sort, the type who always looks for a good fight, a good drink, or a good woman. Preferably all three. Loyal to a fault and one to never give up, no matter the odds, he makes for a valuable ally. His propensity for getting into trouble, however, might make one second guess that. Though not a book-smart man, he has a natural inclination for understanding people, which makes flirting that much easier for him. His looks don't hurt either. Occupation: Mercenary
Skills Magic: Reinforcement - Through the power of the sigils inscribed in his flesh, Roland can increase his own physical abilities, be they strength, endurance, or speed. He has ones inscribed permanently on his shoulders for endurance, his forearms for strength, and his legs for speed. He often will add temporary ones as the situation requires. As they draw on his magical potential for use, attempting too many can be quite dangerous. Abilities: Eyes of Deceit - an innate perception for trickery and deception, be they through natural means or magical (though by no means full-proof) Equipment: Titan - a blade made of an incredibly durable, undefined black metal, said to be impossible to break.

- Spoiler:
Name: Basil Zaahir Gender: Male Age: 29 Appearance: - Spoiler:
History: - Spoiler:
Basil’s father was a noble and his mother was Dolofonos; his mother was a slave, who was bought by one of the nobles that considered well respected. However, that respected noble’s name didn’t last long as the man really fall for his mother, Shula. Was it the beauty that attracted him? Was it her strength that attracted him? No one knows, but he was crazy enough to give up everything to live with Shula and Shula was also crazy to accept that noble to be her husband; the noble family did not take it well when Basil’s father decided to marry the slave, and as they did not approve of his love for Shula, he ran away with Shula before his family harm Shula. And Shula turned her back against her family as her family did not welcome the noble. In the end, they isolated themselves from the world and lived deep inside the mountain. It took them a year to make their life stable; Basil’s father worked hard as a mage for hire to get the money they needed for shopping (however, he didn’t take risky tasks) and Shula made it sure warm food was there for the family. As their life became more stable, Shula gave a birth to Basil. And being afraid that their child could be the victim of the society, Shula and her love decided to train him and teach him. Just like his mother, Basil quickly learned well how to hunt, and how to fight to protect his own life. Even though, training from his mother was life-threatening, he quickly adapted to his training. Soon, he was able to fight back against his mother with weapons skill; he started outclassing his mother. Soon, it was obvious that he should be tested with the nature (Fighting bears, lions, and etc). However, Basil’s training with magic, which was thought by his father wasn’t getting anywhere. To make it worse, he also showed zero talents in blood magic. When they about to give up hopes for Basil’s talents in magic, they met a stranger in the mountain. The family found the unconscious female and in their house they treated her. When the stranger woke up, she smiled and revealed it to them that she was a mage just like Basil’s father. The stranger told Basil parents that Basil’s magic talents were not in the ordinary magic, but it is in the form of Athevna Magic. An Athevna magic none like any others; psychokinesis, the stranger named it. The magic had no words to initiate, no words to learn, but a magic that works with his will. “It is a scary talent”, she commented, “but I can teach him to control it.”
How long he had been thought by the stranger? As he had his training in the mountain, it was not clear. However, he soon became a force to be reckoned; according to his teacher, he was able to use 40% of his real power, a sign that he could become stronger. The stranger left his family after telling Basil that there was nothing else to teach.
All this happened when he was a teenager. As each year pass by, his magic became stronger, and he was able to understand it and apply to different situation. He was able to move things around with his thoughts, and made himself float... His magic showed him that it had lots of application.
After 4 years later, when Basil reached his 18, the strange mage visited them again; however, she did not visit them with intention of good will. She came to Basil’s house with her friends, threatening him to come with them. As his father was no longer strong mage, and as his mother cannot fight all the wizards, he had to go with them.
It was this day that he had encountered the ‘La Nihaya’, a weapon that strangers were looking for and the weapon that decided to choose him as owner. ‘La Nihaya’ was a weapon with a thought, and furthermore, it was able to fight back. It could float itself to fight the foes, and as it had no definite physical form, it transformed into many shapes and sizes to fight its foe. The strange cult had hard time capturing it, and with their magic it was definitely impossible. However, this time they had Basil.
Basil was forced by them to face the weapon, and it was one on one. The weapon struck first and with instinct, Basil stopped its movement. “Interesting…A mortal with the power to stop me before I strike…” said the weapon. “Mortal, what is your wish?” And Basil wished for one thing. “I want to have power to protect my family!” And with the blinding light, the strangers were all dead.
“I have chosen you as my master, mortal. Tell me your name to finalize this contract.” And Basil said it without any hesitation. “My name is Basil Zaahir! Son of Tabassum Zaahir and Shula Zaahir! I accept your contract.”
“You have accepted your contract, thus, my powers are only yours and no others are able to use me. I will curse others if they touch me, remember that mortal.”
Basil didn’t know how serious this contract was and this weapon led to his parent’s death. He joined the mercenary after that incident; he couldn’t dispose the weapon nor did weapon leave his side. He regretted making the contract. To make it worse, the next generation of his family was bound by that contract.
After the incident with his family, he decided to become a mercenary to help people, who could not pay the proper price for the help.
Personality: Basil is very friendly towards the others. He doesn’t let others touch his weapon as it would curse others. He is very strong in his opinion, and he likes to read and traveling. He prefers to use his powers and talents for the poor and help others. Occupation: Mercenary Magic: Athevna Magic, Psychokinesis: The power to use his will to move objects around and it also let it levitate the objects. He could also make himself float, allowing him to grant him power to fly for decent distance. He could also stop the incoming objects and is also able to create a barrier around himself and others if it is necessary. However, making barrier and continue to hold the barrier, dangerously tires him out. Depending on the size of the barrier he had created, his barriers last long as days to an hour. The bigger the barrier, he gets tired very quickly. Abilities: - Spoiler:
Half-Blood: Has the blood of the Dolofonos running through his veins. Possess the advantages of Dolofonos Blood, but on a lower scale.
Equipment: Standard Armor Standard Clothing Weapon, La Nihaya: Weapon that has no definite shape or size. The weapon has its own thought and it had decided to choose Basil as its master and made a contract with him. The weapon could become weapons of what its master wants. A weapon that has strong loyalty to his master and curse others those who wish to use it. The curse makes the person weak, to the point that he/she cannot withstand the weight of this weapon.

Name: Izlazak Roho Gender: Male Age: 25 Appearance: - Spoiler:
Dark blue leather coat and a black shirt, no glowing eye. History: - Spoiler:
Izlazak Roho was born in a small village. He lived a peaceful life, as any other young child in such an environment. With a smaller frame compared to his peers as a youngling, he learned to be both kind, and quiet. He also became a tad shy.
Of course, this only lasted until he was around the age of 5. Then came the strange people, supposedly to fortify the village against alleged increases in the number of monsters in the surrounding area. The cautious and fearful village head had needed no further convincing.
At first, all seemed as the people had explained, and monster populations did indeed rise. However, after a time, villagers began to go missing. As people began to slowly give in to fear, go out less and less, the village was soon covered in an oppressive air. Not long after, the strange people finally revealed their true faces. They were in fact a cult, who worked to create "superior Humans", by way of magical experimentation on living human bodies. Their research had, by then almost reached fruition, with the "aid" of the villagers, and the rest would then. be subject to similar "enhancements".
And so, for several long and grueling years, the young Roho was subject to painful experiments. The reason he survived, was mainly due to luck. The experiments he was subject to simply were less life-threatening than those of the rest. Having strange gauntlets fused with his arms, to be precise. But, as all good things, all bad things must also come to an end. One of the subjects, though it's life force was rapidly fading, received a little too much power and went berserk. It destroyed everything within a certain radius of it before it finally succumbed. Coincidentally leaving young Roho one of the few survivors, the rest of which immediately fled deep into the forest, their fate uncertain.
To survive in the wilderness, Roho quickly learned that he, being weak, must learn to hide himself. He also learned that he must hunt and forage. Possibly influenced by the strange gauntlets, in the following years, Roho grew quickly within the forest. His body became strong, his skills improved rapidly. As a teenager, Roho after living within the forest for 9 years, was unrivaled in battle within it's depths. He finally managed to venture outside.
Roho, while unable to read or write, could still speak semi-coherent language, and found only a bit of trouble making his way in the unfamiliar world of humans. He was originally quiet and shy as well, so he became one who spoke less, and did more. He quickly learned the workings of the human realm, and found physical labour to obtain money. More specifically, he became a mercenary. His first job involved playing bodyguard to a mage. The mage took an interest in the boy, and taught him some of his magic for a trip which lasted several months, the man choosing to take longer routes to his destination so as to be able to spend more time training the young man. This resulted in his obtainment of his peculiar kind of wing magic, which was symbiotic with much of his other skills. He would further hone these skills he obtained throughout the rest of his career, making as much use of them as he could at every turn. Personality: Kind and caring to anyone that needs help, he won't hesitate to use lethal force when called for. While kind, he also tend to be indifferent to most things, and dislikes drawing attention. Quite prone to flights of fancy. He becomes ruthless when faced with those considered enemies. Especially nice to children and small animals(He likes cute things...). Occupation: Mercenary Magic: Uses special air magic that makes him lighter, allowing him to move silently, and leave little to no footsteps. Also allows him to jump much higher and further. Constantly active, but may be turned off at will. Also uses air magic to increase his movement speed, and make his movements less predictable by accelerating randomly, in chosen directions. Abilities: Primal Sense: Gained from living like a beast in a forest, it allows him to sense hostile forces or danger coming at him, or those close by. Animalistic Senses: His hearing and sense of smell are sharpened like those of a beast, meaning he can make out the smallest sounds and smells and from much farther than normal humans. Ghost: Allows him to reduce his presence to extremely low levels, where one could easily over-look him in a group out in the open, unless they're actually looking for him. Equipment: - Gauntlets:
Ancient gauntlets fused to his arms. Any wounds caused by it's claws or blades cause the mana around the wound to become chaotic, and attack the body itself for a while. This means any wounds caused by it will deteriorate and become worse for a time, before starting to heal at all. The main parts are dark blueish gey. Stats:Mental: 2 Physical: 3 Speech: 1 Perception: 2

History and ability are a bit ragtag and all over the place, but I wrote a summary paragraph for those two so it should help.
Also I don't know if the 'King' nickname is blasphemous or not, but it can be easily removed.
Name: Revya "King" Alice Gender: Female Age: 20 Appearance: - Spoiler:
History: Summary: Raised by rebels in a hidden city to overthrow the Immortal King, Revya struck out for being betrayed and used their stockpile treasury to become somewhat rich and live a life of leisure in the nearest town. However, she felt like something was missing, and knew that she couldn't live in indulgence forever, and so moved to Miros to become a Mercenary.
- Spoiler:
Revya was born to be a leader. A savior. She was made to be one, and raised to be one. But she was also brought into existence... to disappear. From before birth, she was chosen and nurtured by magic. Changed by it. When she finally saw the light of the world, born into a rebel camp, it would be more appropriate to call her a product of magic than a product of men. The Rebel camp was a remnant from the wars 200 years prior, a group who had previously supported a warlord at that time called Lord Median the Conquerer. They saw the Immortal Enemy as their enemy, as Median had fallen against him. They wanted to overthrow his current stagnant rule at any costs, and they believed they had the means. Revya was brought up for that singular purpose. Her life was full of training, both fighting and war techniques. It was harsh training that allowed for little relaxation, but it was the only thing she knew. She found happiness in it, gaining a dear friend. The leader of the rebels was a figure Revya followed, but also looked to as a mother. She didn't question where her parents were. Or why she was the only one who had to go through all this training. Or even what the training was for. Because she knew it was her dear friends, her family, that wanted it. Even if she was a tool, she wouldn't mind. As long as she could be happy with those who surrounded her... That's why, when the time came and she was told her training had a purpose, she didn't mind. She was a bit annoyed. But she accepted it. That she was a tool. That her purpose was to end the reign of the Immortal Emperor, someone she had never seen or even heard much about. That, to do this, she must accept a particularly wicked looking onyx blade. ... She took it, a bit remorseful that she had to go on this journey. But she knew, once she was done... These people, the people who she grew up with, would be waiting her. When the woman grasped the sword, she saw darkness. The darkness of her own soul. And she knew. She knew as the man she recognized as her ancestor stood there, she knew... This was it. Lord Median the Conqueror introduced himself. Welcomed Revya as one of his descendents. He in turn welcomed himself into her soul. Pushing hers out. She could feel herself disappearing. She wasn't just a tool. She was a disposable one. All that training wasn't to train her. It was to train the vessel for him. Her body was raised just to be a vessel. Herself? Her own mind and soul? It didn't matter, did it? All of her friends... All of her family... Those smiling faces. They weren't smiling at their friend. They didn't think she would save them. They were smiling at her ignorance. 'Do you really think we care about you?' Her soul bubbled with rage and sorrow. It proceeded to ate Lord Median's, whose soul had been attached to the sword. She devoured it without hesitation. Her soul that had been altered before she was even out of the womb... altered to change souls... It was also capable of eating them. And now he was gone, and she was left. The view of the world returned to her. The same smiles, the same sunlight, the same people... But it all seemed far too dim. Muttering the single word 'Selfish' over and over, she proceeded to cut down each and every person in the village. Betrayal had torn out her heart, and now she cut down the hearts of others. Reveled in their suffering. And then there was no one left. She let out a laugh, emptied her guts twice, and sat there for a day in a daze. Finally, she made the decision to live only for herself. Raiding the Rebel city's treasury, she took it all in a cart and headed for the nearest city. Settling for a rather dark part of town, she earned a fortune from the things that she brought along. It seems they had quite a few rare artifacts and jewels stockpiled up. After that, Revya also earned a reputation from fighting off the thieves that sought the fortune she was carrying around. An Aimatos Lord quickly took notice of the odd situation, and reached out to the wandering woman with a cart of bullion heavy enough to last a hundred lifetimes. They helped her out, finding her a rather nice and tidy mansion to live in. They helped her settle down in the city, and for that, Revya was thankful. It didn't matter if they took a rather large chunk from her fortune. With that settled, she tried to live a life of comfort and leisure. But it wasn't enough. And she wasn't fool enough to not realize that her remaining wealth wouldn't support that lifestyle forever. So she knew she should get a job. Deciding on something that would be full of adventure and fighting to help her release stress, she knew there was only one job. And so Revya left her small mansion and the city, leaving to become a Mercenary in the city of Miros. She bought a large house, sharpened her dulled skills, and applied. Of course, she got in.
Personality: Somewhat childish, Revya is a person who lives to have fun. With a twisted psyche and morals, that is something that makes her dangerous. And for someone with such simple goals, she doesn't live in the moment, making her rather unpredictable as well. She believes she is well and truly alone, so lives for her own desires. She doesn't trust anyone unless she controls them in some way, so similarly she works for her own desires, not letting the important things be done by others. She does have a bit of a sadistic steak, but isn't overwhelmed by it. Fully capable of being nice, but can hold grudges if her trust is misplaced even once.
While she owns slaves, they're often seen taken care of and seem to genuinely care about her. This amiability lends her the joking title of 'King,' since it seems like her slaves would follow her even if she didn't own them. The flowing cape also stems from this title. Revya's generous treatment of her slaves is what allows her to remain as part of the Mercenary guild, since she doesn't seem to restrict their freedom. However, it is usually the complete opposite. As is Revya's nature, after a slave acts against her once, she tricks or even commands them to break their agreements until she controls the slave's entire soul from her magic. From there, she changes their nature to be more to her liking. At this point, they're more of a puppet than anything.
Occupation: Mercenary
Magic:
- Soul Pact:
Summary: A person wagers part of their soul, based on their will to fufill the task, when entering into agreements with Revya. If they break it, she gains control of that part of their soul, allowing her to have an influence on their thoughts and actions. She is able to rip the controlled part of the soul out to deal damage, though she would lose her influence.
Revya has the ability to bind one's oath to their soul, and vice versa. When a contract, pact, or promise is made, the person's soul is signed in based on the willingness and determination to fulfill the conditions or serve her. Revya is aware of the ability (obviously,) as well as how much weight, and thus soul, the person is putting to their words. [Someone who doesn't care would have little soul put in, where as someone who fully swears to it would put in a lot of their soul.] This ability can work more than once on the same person, with different agreements.
Revya can usually tell when someone doesn't plan to fulfill their obligations to her, as they would have put little or no soul into the contract. Additionally, perception is needed for one to notice her ability at work. (2 in perception stat needed for the victim, and 3 needed for an outsider/observer to notice.)
If that contract (or etc.) is broken or underperformed, then Revya gains control of that part of the soul they put on the line, being able to influence the person in both body and mind. While a high mental stat can reduce the degree of control, and even with only a small amount of soul under Revya's control, this ability cannot be completely nullified. Whether it be a twitch of their finger or a small idea of a thought, Revya will always have some small control of the person by controlling part of their soul.
If the contract or promise requires action on Revya's part, and she has broken or underperformed on her part, then the contract will be nullified and she will not gain control of the part of the soul they signed. However, she can perform her part at a later date to gain control of the signed soul after the other party broke the contract, unless a date was specified on the deal.
Additionally, Revya is able to rip the controlled part of the soul out of a person by touching them, allowing her to eat it with her World Eater ability. Naturally, if the part of the soul is notable, it can cause some damage when being ripped out. Of course, after ripping out the part of the soul she controls, she loses the power to manipulate that person or thing.
Abilities:
- Wealth & Connections: Alice has a respectable amount of wealth, as well as connections to one of the Aimatos Lords. She lives comfortably above middle-class, and keeps around slaves.
- Devourlord: Increases the ability to intimidate, instilling fear and respect through it. Forcibly raises the morale of those under Revya's command, though the effect will reverse and become a detriment if she is defeated, retreats, or otherwise shows hesitation. Additionally, increases tactical prowess and the ability to command groups. This ability is particularly useful for the slaves she commands. This ability is relative to her Speech stat, meaning if it decreases or increases, so does the effectiveness of this ability.
- World Eater: Revya's is a powerful soul. Nullifies negative effects and degradations against Revya's soul, and allows her to touch and eat souls and similar things like ghosts and spirits to feed her own. Excess souls gained from others passively increase her physical abilities by a slight amount. Additionally, they can be used for a temporary spike in power (~30 minutes,) taking about two days to recover their more passive ability.
Equipment:
- Onyx Blade
- Spoiler:
A large and ancient sword that has existed from the old days of war. If one studied history and did not mind the heresy of the legends from those the Immortal Emperor vanquished, they would recognize the sword of Lord Median the Conqueror. A notable man who had amassed a large following 200 years ago, and sought to unite the lands. The fact that this sword has not rusted or had its blade dulled speaks for its keenness and durability. It has the ability to weaken victims and their magic/abilities based on how fearful they are when attacking or defending.
Stats
- ---Mental: 1
- ---Physical: 3
- ---Speech: 3
- ---Perception: 2
Other: I'll try to keep a balance so she isn't particularly overwhelming with a bunch of characters at her disposal. She isn't insanely wealthy, so she can't go and outright buy more than one or two slaves, but I'll try to keep her from getting that many from her magic ability. (Maybe she'll go sell them off or something.)

| To be honest... I am not so sure about tweaking the history... So here is the character that you already have approved - Spoiler:
Name: Basil Zaahir Gender: Male Age: 29 Appearance: - Spoiler:
History: - Spoiler:
Basil’s father was a noble and his mother was Dolofonos; his mother was a slave, who was bought by one of the nobles that considered well respected. However, that respected noble’s name didn’t last long as the man really fall for his mother, Shula. Was it the beauty that attracted him? Was it her strength that attracted him? No one knows, but he was crazy enough to give up everything to live with Shula and Shula was also crazy to accept that noble to be her husband; the noble family did not take it well when Basil’s father decided to marry the slave, and as they did not approve of his love for Shula, he ran away with Shula before his family harm Shula. And Shula turned her back against her family as her family did not welcome the noble. In the end, they isolated themselves from the world and lived deep inside the mountain. It took them a year to make their life stable; Basil’s father worked hard as a mage for hire to get the money they needed for shopping (however, he didn’t take risky tasks) and Shula made it sure warm food was there for the family. As their life became more stable, Shula gave a birth to Basil. And being afraid that their child could be the victim of the society, Shula and her love decided to train him and teach him. Just like his mother, Basil quickly learned well how to hunt, and how to fight to protect his own life. Even though, training from his mother was life-threatening, he quickly adapted to his training. Soon, he was able to fight back against his mother with weapons skill; he started outclassing his mother. Soon, it was obvious that he should be tested with the nature (Fighting bears, lions, and etc). However, Basil’s training with magic, which was thought by his father wasn’t getting anywhere. To make it worse, he also showed zero talents in blood magic. When they about to give up hopes for Basil’s talents in magic, they met a stranger in the mountain. The family found the unconscious female and in their house they treated her. When the stranger woke up, she smiled and revealed it to them that she was a mage just like Basil’s father. The stranger told Basil parents that Basil’s magic talents were not in the ordinary magic, but it is in the form of Athevna Magic. An Athevna magic none like any others; psychokinesis, the stranger named it. The magic had no words to initiate, no words to learn, but a magic that works with his will. “It is a scary talent”, she commented, “but I can teach him to control it.”
How long he had been thought by the stranger? As he had his training in the mountain, it was not clear. However, he soon became a force to be reckoned; according to his teacher, he was able to use 40% of his real power, a sign that he could become stronger. The stranger left his family after telling Basil that there was nothing else to teach.
All this happened when he was a teenager. As each year pass by, his magic became stronger, and he was able to understand it and apply to different situation. He was able to move things around with his thoughts, and made himself float... His magic showed him that it had lots of application.
After 4 years later, when Basil reached his 18, the strange mage visited them again; however, she did not visit them with intention of good will. She came to Basil’s house with her friends, threatening him to come with them. As his father was no longer strong mage, and as his mother cannot fight all the wizards, he had to go with them.
It was this day that he had encountered the ‘La Nihaya’, a weapon that strangers were looking for and the weapon that decided to choose him as owner. ‘La Nihaya’ was a weapon with a thought, and furthermore, it was able to fight back. It could float itself to fight the foes, and as it had no definite physical form, it transformed into many shapes and sizes to fight its foe. The strange cult had hard time capturing it, and with their magic it was definitely impossible. However, this time they had Basil.
Basil was forced by them to face the weapon, and it was one on one. The weapon struck first and with instinct, Basil stopped its movement. “Interesting…A mortal with the power to stop me before I strike…” said the weapon. “Mortal, what is your wish?” And Basil wished for one thing. “I want to have power to protect my family!” And with the blinding light, the strangers were all dead.
“I have chosen you as my master, mortal. Tell me your name to finalize this contract.” And Basil said it without any hesitation. “My name is Basil Zaahir! Son of Tabassum Zaahir and Shula Zaahir! I accept your contract.”
“You have accepted your contract, thus, my powers are only yours and no others are able to use me. I will curse others if they touch me, remember that mortal.”
Basil didn’t know how serious this contract was and this weapon led to his parent’s death. He joined the mercenary after that incident; he couldn’t dispose the weapon nor did weapon leave his side. He regretted making the contract. To make it worse, the next generation of his family was bound by that contract.
After the incident with his family, he decided to become a mercenary to help people, who could not pay the proper price for the help.
Personality: Basil is very friendly towards the others. He doesn’t let others touch his weapon as it would curse others. He is very strong in his opinion, and he likes to read and traveling. He prefers to use his powers and talents for the poor and help others. Occupation: Mercenary Magic: Athevna Magic, Psychokinesis: The power to use his will to move objects around and it also let it levitate the objects. He could also stop the incoming objects and is also able to create a barrier around himself and others if it is necessary. However, making barrier and continue to hold the barrier, dangerously tires him out. Depending on the size of the barrier he had created, his barriers last long as days to an hour. The bigger the barrier, he gets tired very quickly. Abilities: - Spoiler:
Dolofonos Blood: The blood of the hunter tribe, a tribe that survives through hunting results in it's people becoming monster hunters, unlike others, they do not train other to hunt, they are born as natural hunters. This grants them a strong sense of smell, hearing and sight, they are also resistant to poisons and illness. They also have a longer longevity than other people.
Equipment: Standard Armor Standard Clothing Weapon, La Nihaya: Weapon that has no definite shape or size. The weapon has its own thought and it had decided to choose Basil as its master and made a contract with him. The weapon could become weapons of what its master wants. A weapon that has strong loyalty to his master and curse others those who wish to use it. The curse makes the person weak, to the point that he/she cannot withstand the weight of this weapon. Stats: Mental: 3 Physical: 3 Speech: 2 Perception: 2

| Reading it, i have concluded that you need to make these changes.
one, in your history it says you can teleport. Although there's nothing stating you can do that in your magic. i'll just say it, no teleporting.
next. change this
Dolofonos Blood: The blood of the hunter tribe, a tribe that survives through hunting results in it's people becoming monster hunters, unlike others, they do not train other to hunt, they are born as natural hunters. This grants them a strong sense of smell, hearing and sight, they are also resistant to poisons and illness. They also have a longer longevity than other people.
to this
Half-Blood: Has the blood of the Dolofonos running through his veins. Possess the advantages of Dolofonos Blood, but on a lower scale.
then stats wise. If I remember correctly I gave you 2 more points because I was impressed by the story. However that was a long time ago and after reading the backstory. I'm going to give you the stat sheet your character deserves for his backstory.
change to this
Stats: Mental: 3 Physical: 2 Speech: 1 Perception: 2
i will give you an explaination as to why those stats.
Mental, you clearly have shown that your character is a monster with his magic, capable of even stopping a magical weapon from attacking. So this will keep at 3
Physical I have reduced it to 2 because of your character not having a good fighting trainer. The father was not a fighter and although the Mother was a Dolofonos which was normaly worse than monsters, she did spend most of her years as a slave, thus by that time she should be severly rusty and weak compared to the one that hunt all the time. 2 is not bad though, it still alows you fight the animals he did. But not the monsters that are around the dessert.
Speech i reduced it to 1 because your character doesnt seem to have much experience dealing with other, leaving in the mountains and what not.
Perception is fine.
I know it sucks to be downgraded, but please understand that as your character was, he was better than most npcs I had while being younger and having gone through less than them. |

| All right, here are some rough character drafts. DescriptionName: Echidna Gender: Female Age: 28 Appearance: - Spoiler:
History: Not much is known about Echidna, except that spread by rumor. Some say she is the young widow of a man killed by the expansion of the Immortal King's forces. Others say she was once a captain in the King's forces herself. Rumors spread that she is obsessed with collecting rare and valuable weapons. All that people know for certain is that once she appeared in the guild as a mercenary, none were able to equal her. After establishing a notorious reputation, Echidna had the luxury of picking and choosing jobs that suited her tastes, all of which seem to originate in areas with rumors of valuable weapons. She has earned the alias "Edgemaster." Personality: Sarcastic and cutting, Echidna needs no friends and tends to show that. She can also be described as playful, in the way that a cat is playful with mice. She also seems to have a fascination for weapons - both for their lore and their uses. Occupation: Mercenary SkillsMagic: Wind - Echidna uses wind to augment her swords, extending the reach of their slash, and to maneuver herself in battle to increase her speed and agility Abilities: Eye of the Mind - an innate sense for perceiving the best options in battle, refined through many battles to an exceptional sixth sense Equipment:Venom and Viper - two kodachi with the center of the blades hollowed out to improve the aerodynamics, making them somewhat brittle to blunt strikes but exceptionally fast at slashing. Phobos - a thin, short katana used for foes that require a stronger, though no less refined, approach. It is a cursed blade that feeds off of the fear of its targets. Unnamed stash of weapons - Echidna has acquired many weapons in her travels, kept stashed in her secret lair, though they rarely see use. StatsMental: 2 Physical: 3 Speech: 2 Perception: 2 -------------------- DescriptionName: Viser Gender: Male Age: 26 Appearance:- Spoiler:
History: An aspiring alchemist, Viser tutored from a young age under the renowned Argus the Wise, learning many of the sage's great secrets. Though he mourned the sudden death of the great mage several years later, Viser determined to use the knowledge his master had accumulated in order to rebuild the world. Though often preoccupied with his studies, he will occasionally take up requests at the Guild to acquire finances and ingredients for his research. Personality: Viser is a focus and determined young man, always more focused on results and getting to the point than in wasting time with trivialities and niceties. However, he displays kindness to all those he knows and is always eager to speak of plans and dreams for a better world. Occupation: Alchemist; part-time mercenary SkillsMagic: Alchemy - the ability to put magic to use in the creation of powerful items and machinery. Ether - the ability to manipulate magic in its most raw, unrefined state, a key aspect for mastering alchemy Abilities: Equipment: Conduit - a short sword more akin to a wand that absorbs, channels, and dissipates magical energy.

So... she's not picky? Or she just isn't into anyone?
If I'm interpreting correctly, she just enjoys the attention of flirting, but doesn't intend to take it anywhere? _________________ ~The Ruin of Camelot~ | |

| All right, here are some rough character drafts. DescriptionName: Roland Gender: Male Age: 38 Appearance: - Spoiler:
History: Since he was young, Roland always dreamed of seeing the world and discovering the pleasures and wonders of every realm. He firmly believed that experiencing life was something you needed to do with every fiber of your being. He lived in different towns and countries, picking up on their cultures and ways, enjoying their delicacies and women. He picked up various sword styles and even learned of the magic of sigils from a renowned hermit in a far off land. He returned to his home land and became a mercenary, hoping for some opportunities to make money and continue experiencing life abroad. Personality: Roland is a boisterous sort, the type who always looks for a good fight, a good drink, or a good woman. Preferably all three. Loyal to a fault and one to never give up, no matter the odds, he makes for a valuable ally. His propensity for getting into trouble, however, might make one second guess that. Though not a book-smart man, he has a natural inclination for understanding people, which makes flirting that much easier for him. His looks don't hurt either. Occupation: Mercenary SkillsMagic: Reinforcement - Through the power of the sigils inscribed in his flesh, Roland can increase his own physical abilities, be they strength, endurance, or speed. He has ones inscribed permanently on his shoulders for endurance, his forearms for strength, and his legs for speed. He often will add temporary ones as the situation requires. As they draw on his magical potential for use, attempting too many can be quite dangerous. Abilities: Eyes of Deceit - an innate perception for trickery and deception, be they through natural means or magical (though by no means full-proof) Equipment:Titan - a blade made of an incredibly durable, undefined black metal, said to be impossible to break.

| Roland's history is missing?
otherwise he's fine, if not annoying, Thevana will find him troublesome just for that ability
as for the missions, initialy they will be open in the sense that I will give X number of mission to alow people to get confortable with their character, however eventualy I will try to join everyone into a party for the major plot. |

| - Spoiler:
Name: Basil Zaahir Gender: Male Age: 29 Appearance: - Spoiler:
History: - Spoiler:
Basil’s father was a noble and his mother was Dolofonos; his mother was a slave, who was bought by one of the nobles that considered well respected. However, that respected noble’s name didn’t last long as the man really fall for his mother, Shula. Was it the beauty that attracted him? Was it her strength that attracted him? No one knows, but he was crazy enough to give up everything to live with Shula and Shula was also crazy to accept that noble to be her husband; the noble family did not take it well when Basil’s father decided to marry the slave, and as they did not approve of his love for Shula, he ran away with Shula before his family harm Shula. And Shula turned her back against her family as her family did not welcome the noble. In the end, they isolated themselves from the world and lived deep inside the mountain. It took them a year to make their life stable; Basil’s father worked hard as a mage for hire to get the money they needed for shopping (however, he didn’t take risky tasks) and Shula made it sure warm food was there for the family. As their life became more stable, Shula gave a birth to Basil. And being afraid that their child could be the victim of the society, Shula and her love decided to train him and teach him. Just like his mother, Basil quickly learned well how to hunt, and how to fight to protect his own life. Even though, training from his mother was life-threatening, he quickly adapted to his training. Soon, he was able to fight back against his mother with weapons skill; he started outclassing his mother. Soon, it was obvious that he should be tested with the nature (Fighting bears, lions, and etc). However, Basil’s training with magic, which was thought by his father wasn’t getting anywhere. To make it worse, he also showed zero talents in blood magic. When they about to give up hopes for Basil’s talents in magic, they met a stranger in the mountain. The family found the unconscious female and in their house they treated her. When the stranger woke up, she smiled and revealed it to them that she was a mage just like Basil’s father. The stranger told Basil parents that Basil’s magic talents were not in the ordinary magic, but it is in the form of Athevna Magic. An Athevna magic none like any others; psychokinesis, the stranger named it. The magic had no words to initiate, no words to learn, but a magic that works with his will. “It is a scary talent”, she commented, “but I can teach him to control it.”
How long he had been thought by the stranger? As he had his training in the mountain, it was not clear. However, he soon became a force to be reckoned; according to his teacher, he was able to use 40% of his real power, a sign that he could become stronger. The stranger left his family after telling Basil that there was nothing else to teach.
All this happened when he was a teenager. As each year pass by, his magic became stronger, and he was able to understand it and apply to different situation. He was able to move things around with his thoughts, and made himself float... His magic showed him that it had lots of application.
After 4 years later, when Basil reached his 18, the strange mage visited them again; however, she did not visit them with intention of good will. She came to Basil’s house with her friends, threatening him to come with them. As his father was no longer strong mage, and as his mother cannot fight all the wizards, he had to go with them.
It was this day that he had encountered the ‘La Nihaya’, a weapon that strangers were looking for and the weapon that decided to choose him as owner. ‘La Nihaya’ was a weapon with a thought, and furthermore, it was able to fight back. It could float itself to fight the foes, and as it had no definite physical form, it transformed into many shapes and sizes to fight its foe. The strange cult had hard time capturing it, and with their magic it was definitely impossible. However, this time they had Basil.
Basil was forced by them to face the weapon, and it was one on one. The weapon struck first and with instinct, Basil stopped its movement. “Interesting…A mortal with the power to stop me before I strike…” said the weapon. “Mortal, what is your wish?” And Basil wished for one thing. “I want to have power to protect my family!” And with the blinding light, the strangers were all dead.
“I have chosen you as my master, mortal. Tell me your name to finalize this contract.” And Basil said it without any hesitation. “My name is Basil Zaahir! Son of Tabassum Zaahir and Shula Zaahir! I accept your contract.”
“You have accepted your contract, thus, my powers are only yours and no others are able to use me. I will curse others if they touch me, remember that mortal.”
Basil didn’t know how serious this contract was and this weapon led to his parent’s death. He joined the mercenary after that incident; he couldn’t dispose the weapon nor did weapon leave his side. He regretted making the contract. To make it worse, the next generation of his family was bound by that contract.
After the incident with his family, he decided to become a mercenary to help people, who could not pay the proper price for the help.
Personality: Basil is very friendly towards the others. He doesn’t let others touch his weapon as it would curse others. He is very strong in his opinion, and he likes to read and traveling. He prefers to use his powers and talents for the poor and help others. Occupation: Mercenary Magic: Athevna Magic, Psychokinesis: The power to use his will to move objects around and it also let it levitate the objects. He could also make himself float, allowing him to grant him power to fly for decent distance. He could also stop the incoming objects and is also able to create a barrier around himself and others if it is necessary. However, making barrier and continue to hold the barrier, dangerously tires him out. Depending on the size of the barrier he had created, his barriers last long as days to an hour. The bigger the barrier, he gets tired very quickly. Abilities: - Spoiler:
Half-Blood: Has the blood of the Dolofonos running through his veins. Possess the advantages of Dolofonos Blood, but on a lower scale.
Equipment: Standard Armor Standard Clothing Weapon, La Nihaya: Weapon that has no definite shape or size. The weapon has its own thought and it had decided to choose Basil as its master and made a contract with him. The weapon could become weapons of what its master wants. A weapon that has strong loyalty to his master and curse others those who wish to use it. The curse makes the person weak, to the point that he/she cannot withstand the weight of this weapon. Stats: Mental: 3 Physical: 2 Speech: 1 Perception: 2
I would be lying if I said I am not disappointed, but it's okay Edited | |
