Enter the land of Edar and prepare for a magical journey to save the world.

The land of Edar has lived in peace for thousands of years under the rule of the four great wizards, known as the Kinta, who control the four realms; Menal of the sky, Kemena of the land, Alu of water, and Naur of the underworld. Along with the four Mystic Gems, the Kinta have the power to manipulate all of nature. The Kinta have governed in cooperative harmony since the beginning of history, and Edar has flourished under their benevolence.

But not all wizards are good. The dark lord Morheru has been plotting for centuries to over through the Kinta and take control of Edar for himself. He gave plenty of warnings, but never doubting the Kinta's power, the people of Edar never gave any heed until it was too late. Now the Kinta have been captured and imprisoned in secret prisons and the Mystic Gems have been stolen.

Now, Vakha, the spirit in charge of helping to maintain the balance, Has summoned some of Edar's finest to try and find the Kinta and the Mystic Gems so that Morheru can be stopped before it's too late and the world is destroyed.

Info: Alright, some of the information will be given to the characters at the beginning of the guest by Vakha, but there's some stuff I'll tell you now. First, we will all be starting in the same place. Vakha's home in the Khelek mountains.

Now, this is going to be a bit D&D style. If/when you get into a battle, you will need to roll to see how you do. Unless otherwise specified by me, I'll have you roll three 8 sided die, and your success will be determined by your average using this scale:
1- Total miss, minor self damage
2- Total miss
3- Glancing blow, no damage
4- Minor damage
5- Considerable damage
6- Severe damage
7- Fatal damage
8- Instant death
Defense will be determined with the same scale, 1 being a total lack of defense, 8 being complete defense, minor damage to opponent.

Now, this will be explained to the characters by Vakha, but I'm going to get into different details here. In order to free the wizards and to regain the gems, you will need Templa, magic points. Each character will start with a certain amount of Templa determined by their race and any other factors I see fit. Characters will gain Templa by either freeing a wizard, capturing a gem, defeating a magical enemy, by answering questions/completing small side quests, or at my discretion. Freeing a wizard will earn the group 150 T, a stone will earn the group 75. Other points will be awarded as I see fit. I will keep a group total, which I will keep posted on the front page.

If you have any disagreements with my decision, please feel free to PM me saying so. If you make a good case, I will be more than willing to fix the situation. I will not, however, respond to whining or bitching (forgive the language). If you want me to be on your side, be intelligent and civil in your request.

More added if needed.

Rules:
1: No Godmoding. I will be the only one aloud to do so, and only then in the most pressing of cases.
2: No grumbling about my actions. As I said, if you can give me a good case, I might change things, but since I am the game master, my final word is law.
3: Put Dells as the title of your PM so I know you read the rules.
4: Please be literate.
5: Please try and be civil, especially to your quest mates. I can understand with bad guys, but let's not get out of hand.
6: Put Duct Tape Boy somewhere in your PM body.
7: Let's try and keep this PG13. I know there's going to be fighting, but let's not get too graphic, alright?
8:PLEASE DON"T START TILL I SAY TO!!!

More added if needed.

Personality: Never exactly kind, though generally civil. He has a rather hot temper that is kept in check by his fellow Kinta.
Appearance: Naur

Name: Morheru
Age: Unknown
Gender: Male
Powers: dark magic
Personality: Cruel and evil. He has rather a perverse sense of humor and finds delight in destruction.

Name: Vakha
Age: Unknown
Gender: Female
Powers: Lesser elemental control, apparation, more to be revealed possibly
Personality: Gentle and wise, Vakha is responsible for helping to maintain balance.
Appearance: Vakha 1, 2

Others:
Gaia Name: SirBayer
Name: Crystal Rai'noth
Age: 32, though thanks to elvish blood she appears 20.
Gender: Female
Race/Breed: Elf
Powers: Crystal possesses the power to use her Templa to increase her speed drastically. This costs her 2T per mile, but is regenerated with rest.
Weapons: A hand-and-a-half sword, marked by a ruby in the hilt, hanging at her waist.
Pets: Not a one.
Personality: Crystal is a little shy and soft-spoken, although she warms up to people pretty quickly. For being as shy as she is, she's a surprisingly large portion tomboy. She's naturally highly forgiving, but that doesn't mean she can't get angry. Granted, it's a righteous fury; she won't become angry if you insult her, but any ill delivered to friends or family will drive her insane.
Bio/History: Crystal's life hasn't been marred by any unfortunate loss, any significant event. She's simply lived out her life as she's wanted to so far, and that essentially means as a sword fighter. She started her training at the age of twelve, which might explain her prowess. Since then, she simply lived her life out as a very vague hermit, seeing as although she didn't join any military force, she also didn't go into any seclusion of any sort.
Appearance: Crystal may be named for her straight shoulder-blade length brilliant white hair. On the other hand, it may be from her light gray eyes. Either way, she's rather pretty, even though she might not be a total stunner. Her dress consists of a light gray tunic (matching her eyes), knee-length, tight, very dark gray shorts, and a dark brown cloak, used primarily in the interest of concealment.
Base Health: 20 Base Templa: 60

Gaia Name: Tom Myamoto
Name: Toralix Martalo
Age: 35
Gender: M
Race/Breed: Human
Powers: He can create explosions just by touching something with his bare hands.
Weapons: A pair of black gloves that can control his explosive ability. They also can be used to create orbs of electrical energy, that can pack quite a punch.
Pets: A Red tailed Hawk that seems to almost always be perched on his left shoulder.
Personality: He seems kind of odd with the way he doesn't talk much. However hes always loyal to his friends and allies, plus he helps in any way he can.
Bio/History: No one knows much about his past. However their are a few who do know or say they know enough to explain why he acts like he does. Some of them say that he had killed both his parents when he was little. Others say his father was a crazed Sage who tried to make his son a living weapon. Honestly speaking both of these rumors are correct...... However it was his father that killed his mother, not him.
Appearance: Toralix has ice white hair and pale blue eyes. He's about six foot and is very skinny. He looks like an absolute wimp, but the last rock he decided to shove out of his way was about 350 pounds. He's always wearing a black jacket, along with his control gloves. When ever you see Toralix he always has a Red tailed hawk on his shoulder.
Base Health: 20 Base Templa: 40

Gaia Name: Mentor Ananke
Name: Huan Lote
Age: 28
Gender: female
Race/Breed: inu (dog demon)
Powers:
Weapons: teeth and claws, carries short sword given her by Vakha
Pets: she is almost a pet herself^^
Personality: Generally happy and playful, she is very loyal to her friends and particularly the person she bonds to for her "master". (see extras) She has a great disliking for humans though. Also, don't get her mad, because then she turns into a pit bull. (not literally)
Bio/History: Huan was born a tame Inu, and so was destined to a life living with a "master". Unfortunately, though most Inus pick good, kind masters, Huan wasn't as lucky. At first, the human she bonded to was pretty kind to her, but as time went on, he became mean and cruel. He beat Huan viciously and treated her like a slave. Few Inus would ever dare go against their master, and Huan is no exception. As horribly as he treated her, she still stood by him. Then one day, Vakha showed up. She was how poorly Huan was being treated, and so took her away. For the past several years, Vakha has been Huan's master and Huan is much happier with her kind master.
Appearance: Though she looks mostly human, she has the ears, tail, eyes, teeth and claws of a dog. The fur on her ears and tail is white, and the fine layer of fuzz on her skin is mostly white with a few dark markings. Her human hair is about the same coloration as the rest of her. (maybe will have picture eventually).
Extras: There are two different kinds of Inu; wild and tame. Wild Inus aren't necessarily wild, but they have no connection to other races and instead form packs with their own kind. Tame Inus, on the other hand, have bound themselves to a member of a different species. Unless this bond is broken, the Inu becomes that person's life long companion and willing servant.
Base Health: 20 Base Templa: 50

Gaia Name: armygal1217
Name: Nali
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Race/Breed: Human
Powers: Makes weapons appear by thought (will cost 1T for small objects like knives, 2T for larger, like swords)
Weapons: Scythe
Pets: Cat Named Riakku
Personality: Nali loves to have fun an can be hyper at times
Bio/History: Nali has lived alone for as long as she can remember. it was that about two years ago she came across an old thief who taught her how to steal the things she needs
Appearance: Nali
Base Health: 20 Base Templa: 40

After you send me a profile and I approve it, your character will be assigned starting health and Templa points. Health will start at the same base, then be increased/decreased due to strength, injuries, and so on. Templa will be based on race and powers, with humans probably starting with the least. But don't let that stop you from being one, there may be other benefits later.

Alright, this is where I'm going to keep useful information, like plot updates every few pages, the group's Templa, and anything else I think might be useful. If you have any suggestions of things to add, please feel free to PM me the suggestion.

Alright, we are officially open. Also, I have created a map of Edar. At the moment it is completely crudtastic, and I don't think the quality will ever improve, at least not for a great while. However, the amount of info on it will. As of right now, you can kind of decide if you have a specific area you want your home town to be in. The dark brown mass toward the top is mountains, the light green mass towards the bottom is lowlands. The light brown below that is beachy type area. The two medium brown marks are large caves. The town mentioned by Vakha is the little pink dot with yellow righting to the left of it. Any questions, just ask. Thanks Map

Over the millenia, the Kinta had been known to sometimes take leaves or go into hiding without notice. But Vakha was sure this wasn't one of those times. Something just felt wrong. The entire world was slowly starting to fall out of balance.

Within a day of her first noticing the situation, Vakha had her confirmation in the form of a note from Morheru. It was rather long winded and more than a bit rude, but the basic gist was that he had captured the Kinta as well as the Mystic Jewels. He had imprisoned them and had no intentions of releasing them.

"Old fools." she thought to herself of the Kinta. "I told them over a century ago that Morheru was no good. But would they listen to me? Of course not! Well, too late for that now. I suppose I'll have to summon a questing party. I'll have them meet me in Doltal."


(Alright, kinda a cruddy intro, but it gets us going. Things will be better once we meet up. So OPEN!!!! Also, see post above for more info)

Doltal never was an incredibly nice place, and for a young elvish woman, this whole place sent Crystal off the wall. Everywhere she looked, she saw another potential ill end, every direction another unsavory character.

Either way, she knew she was here for a good reason, and that was instinct. Elvish instincts were good, and so Crystal had paid attention to hers telling her to come to Doltal.

She slipped into the classic place to run into just about anybody - a bar - and took a seat, waving aside an offered drink, waiting for something to happen.

Toralix walks into the bar a black cloak rapped around his body. Red tailed hawk rested on his left shoulder. He sat at the end of the bar. "why am I here." He muttered glancing around."I had a fealing that I was supose to come here, but nothing was happening. The bar tender walked up to offer him a drink, but right then Toralix pulled one of his hands out of his pocket rubbs his forehead with the sleave. On his hand was an odd black glove covered in patches of fresh blood. Seeingthis the bartender quickly walked the other way.

He glanced around and saw Doltal and Nali 'Why do tose two look so familar.' Toralix thought to him self. He looked down a his bloody glove. He suddenly grimaced as thoughts from his passed rushed back to him. He slammed his head against the counter, making a huge crack in it. The hawk had screached and flew back into the air hovering above him. At this point everyone was looking at him. He slowly lifted his head off the counter. He shook violently as a thought of his father passed through his head, there was one however that did not vanish like the others....The project.....The living weapon.... Blood dripped down off his forhead, and sat there still and quite waiting for something, anything to happen.

Crystal jumped as a loud crack informed her her neighbour had planted his face in the counter. A bead of sweat formed on her brow. Blood dripped away from his forehead. Crystal didn't say anything, but she subtly reached down to her waist, gripping her light hand-and-a-half blade, prepared to draw at a moment's notice.

Huan grumbled as she made ready to leave the sanctuary in the Emyn Mountains to go to the village of Doltal. She hated going into human towns. Humans were filthy, nasty creatures as far as she was concerned and she wanted little to do with them.

But Lady Vakha said that it was important that they go there. Lady Vakha was always good to her and was generally right. Even though she wasn't telling her any details of why they had to go, the past few days things had been very messed up. She could tell that Lady Vakha was massively stressed, so Huan didn't complain to her, but she knew she was going to keep her eyes well peeled and stick close to Lady Vakha. She had found a master she cared for, she wasn't going to let any stinking human screw that up.
