Quote: "I've got black magic, a hair trigger, and a short fuse. Bring it on."

Name: Verin Fuer'yon

Name Meaning / Nicknames: His name means "Evil Beast".

Gender: Male

Age: 19

Race: Olath Mirshann (Dark Angel)

Arts: Advanced Black Magic | Astral Projection

Character Looks: Verin stands at a height of 5'10". His skin is pale, but only slight, and his eyes are a gleaming silver-brown. From his back protrude two dark black wings that span fifteen feet when spread. They tuck in to his back only enough to the point where they slightly exceed his shoulder width. His hair is done in a bit of an odd style and is a deep, almost brown, purple. He's sort of lanky underneath his mantle and clothing, but he's got enough muscle on him to protect himself with, which makes him stronger than you would think at first glance.

Allignment: Evil

Personality: Verin isn't the kind of guy you can just talk to. He's the quiet trickster. He's also got an evil streak with a temper to match. Verin's the one who would be the first to be set off by so much as a simple insult, and from there, things get ugly. If you turn your back on him, you're liable to find a dagger in your spine. So you'd be wise to watch for the time when you can turn and leave—better yet, don't turn your back at all. Verin uses an ancient language as an aid for his spells, making them stronger. After the incident away from Ria, Verin has episodes in which he'll become a hollow shell of his normal self. When in this state, he is all power and no emotion; the ancient power of interminable strength is loosed and he may wind up destroying a lot of things.

History:
__The Overview: Verin has known about his powers since he was a toddler. His parents had hoped that he would turn out to be one of the more kindly people in the world. But that wasn't meant to be. After all, he took after his father. While young, any chance he had to use his powers, he took. This entailed setting the couch on fire, freezing the fish in their bowl, or electrocuting the cat. His own parents saw them as a threat to their health and their home, so they sent him off to a special school when he was of age. For years after that, Verin had gone from school to school, doing something to damage or destroy each one. Be it igniting the cafeteria, creating a fissure that swallowed half the school, or any other manner of destruction, Verin was always the cause.

He'd be kicked out of whatever school he was currently at, and he'd spend the rest of the school year and the summer honing his abilities on his own. Because of this, he became very adept in the art of black magic without ever needing so much as the littlest bit of professional training. But of course, trainging on his own had it's disasters, and their effects show on Verin's body. Underneath the clothing, he's got scars and burns from misfiring spells or general run-ins with creatures.

Each year it was a different school. Until finally, fed up with their son's destruction of every educational facility they sent him to, they enrolled him in Ria High School. Unlike the other schools, plain, ordinary, boring, only one out of every 100 students having special abilities, Ria High was different. Everyone had something about them that they could do, even the teachers. And the surrounding areas were chock full of monsters, perfect for target practice. He sees Ria High as the perfect place to improve upon his magical abilities, and perhaps even learn new things in the Advanced Black Magic area. Verin thought he might actually like this school...

__The Ancient Language: Throughout his years of individual training, he had met quite a few people who aided him in his endeavor to hone his skills to their finest. He even came across a near-extinct, ebony-skinned people with stark white hair who spoke in an ancient and forgotten language. They taught Verin their language and gave him two special rings, the Rings of Magic, or "Anthen del Faer", as they called them. They explained that their language had the capability to multiply the strength of his magic tenfold by chanting certain lines of speech before casting a spell. Verin uses this ancient language now if he's ever at a disadvantage in battle. He taught his brother, Orthae, a little of the ancient language to help with his healing spells.

__The "Anthen del Faer": The "Anthen del Faer", or "Rings of Magic", were given to Verin by one of the High Pristesses of the ancient, dark-skinned race. These rings, in sync with the ancient language, would magnify Verin's magical capabilities, as well as providing him with longevity and an advanced knowledge of the mechanics of magic.

__Astral Projection: A few years after Verin had received the Anthen del Faer, he still continued his training. But as time went by, he began to feel more and more odd. At times he even felt like he was having out-of-body experiences. They came nightly, and he hadn't the slightest clue as to what was happening. So he tracked down the ancient race once more, figuring they'd know about it. Sure enough, they did. They explained it was a magic known as "Astral Projection", a magic where the wielder could separate his/her spirit from their body, and move through the Material Plane without hindrances such as gravity, and move through the Astral Plane, as well. Their astral form is basically on the intermediary between the Material Plane and the Astral Plane. They explained further that those who mastered this art would be able to use their disembodied spirit to possess other things; objects, people, animals, the possibilities were limitless. Intrigued by this, Verin began training himself not only in the black magics, but in this art as well. He's not as adept at it as he is with black magic, but he wishes to hone this art at Ria.

__Father's Bracers: Before he and Orthae left for Ria, their mother gave him their father's leather bracers. She explained that worked like Orthae's "Healing Light", meaning they enhanced Verin's innate ability of casting black magic. Their father had named the bracers "Laced Power".

__The Fiddle: That's right, the fiddle. While at home, Verin and Orthae's mother taught them how to play the fiddle. Orthae took the lessons like glue, whereas Verin couldn't really care less. But due to their mother's lessons and Orthae forcing him to practice with him, Verin and Orthae became incredibly adept at playing the fiddle. In fact, a week before Verin destroyed his latest school, the school held a talent show. Orthae dragged Verin to it because they had been practicing an act. They performed a duo of "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" and had the entire audience cheering for them. They got rave reviews from the judges, and it looked like they were a shoe-in for the win. But before the decision was made, the prinicipal told them in private that they were disqualified because Orthae was not an enrolled student. This was the very reason why Verin destroyed the school.

__Vocal Talent: As if playing the fiddle wasn't enough, Verin and Orthae developed a talent for singing. Once again, it was Orthae who forced Verin to practice. After all, they couldn't pull off a duo of "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" without singing the lyrics. Despite how much Verin hated the talent, there was the undeniable fact that he was second only to Orthae.

__Living Up to His Name: During their multi-month absence from Ria, Verin and Orthae had returned home for a visit to their parents. After a warm welcome home, a few days of stories and merriment passed. But this apparently couldn't last. Verin stole into his father's study and easily found the tome of forbidden magic that his father had hidden away from him. As he was pulling the book down from the shelf, his father walked in. Then began a struggle between father and son for possession of the book. His father claimed that it "was for his own good that he didn't read it". Verin didn't believe that for a moment. Using a simple force spell, he pushed his father from the room. Verin locked the door and used a spell that the ancient race of people had taught him to absorb the contents of the book without having to read it while his father called out from the other side of the door. "Verin! Don't read that book! The forbidden knowledge will—". As his father was calling, the door exploded off its hinges. Verin stood in the middle of the study, a dark, hollow look in his eyes. A power emanated from him like never before. The ancient, forbidden knowledge had warped part of his mind. He memorized all the spells in its pages; spells that could end the world with an incantation or kill someone with but one word. He put one of those kill spells to good use right away. With the dark behind his eyes flaring, he pointed a finger at his father, who had a look of horror on his face. "Verin! Don't—!" Verin spoke one word. "El..." And with that one word, his father's breath seized in his throat and he died instantaneously. Orthae and their mother came running, and their mother let out a shriek as she saw her dead husband. Verin pointed an open palm at the both of them. Orthae was the faster and, with a cry of "Null!", put up a barrier around them. "Xar'zith..." Came the hiss from Verin. Ice spikes exploded from the ground, but were deflected off of Orthae's barrier. Using the brief amount of time to his advantage, Orthae grabbed Verin and blasted through the ceiling and into the sky. Orthae intended to take Verin away from there, but before he knew what was happening, Verin disappeared from his grip. "Mir..." Came a hissed word. Orthae turned and immediately had chains of energy wrapped tightly around him, binding him in place. His back to his brother, Verin held a palm up into the air, and began an incantation. "Olath flasmix nindel lay wun lil xukuthen del jal. Doer ulu uns'aa, whol Usstan tlun dosst veldruk. Belbau dosst z'ress unto uns'aa lueth sut dosst jusron! A large orb of pure destructive energy gathered above his hand, and with an insane, dark look in his hollow eyes, he cast the devastating ball down at the ground where their home lay. The ball came into contact with solid ground and everything within a 500-foot radius was obliterated. Orthae could only watch from the sidelines, terrified. Verin turned to look at his brother, the hollow look in his eyes seeming to not look at Orthae, but to look into his very being. Verin did nothing, but turned and flew off...

Any weapons/armor you have: Nothing but the clothes on his back.

Any items you have: The "Anthen del Faer", Laced Power, Both Verin and Orthae carry a fiddle.

Any battle skills / Magical powers you have: Black Magic

Character Flaws: Verin is extremely easy to anger, which can get him into tight situations quickly. The ancient language he uses to supplement his magic drains an excess amount of energy from him, and using it too often can result in him being dizzy, passing out, or in the worst of cases...death.

Friends in the Realm: His last friend is his friend no more.

Enemies in the Realm: It seems everything has one reason or another to be his enemy.

Lover: None

Name: Shiron Takari

Name Meaning/Nicknames: N/A

Gender:Female

Race: Human

Allignment: Good

Personality: Shiron is an outgoing girl who likes to have a good time wherever she goes. She also loves to make friends and she loves people saying her name (she likes to know that people know her in some way). Shiron's usualy a lazy person so when a fight comes along, she might ask someone else to take care of it. She's a good person at heart but sometimes she can be a little mean, but only to her friends (she doesn't want to risk being mean to a stranger who then wants to fight).

History: Shiron comes from a very rich family but she never let any of that go to her head. When she was a little she would never let her maid do anything for her (which, for some odd reason, ticked her parents off). Shirons parents then sent her to an obedience school... for not letting her maids do work. When she was a teenager (despite her parents wishes), Shiron picked up a sword and began to train with one. She soon mastered (or what she tought was mastery) a blade and began to work on fighting, which she wasn't as good at but she was fair. By the time Shiron was 10, her grandmother told her about the hidden power every woman in her family possessed and she began to work on harnessing the power. Finally, she mastered the elemental power she inharited and set her mind on a school that would benefit her in making her stronger. After putting her on punishment for the 14th time, her parents finally gave in and allowed her to aplly for Ria High.

Any weapons/armor you have: A sword that was passed down to her grandmother and then passed to her (Shirons mother thought that learning to use a sword was a waste of time and money).

Performing Arts
Flower Arrangement

Character Looks: Long, dark, curly hair and startling green eyes. About medium height and weighs about 120 lbs. Always wears her favorite white headband and prefers to wear loose clothing and has a distinctly frail appearence. Her ears are pierced five times and she wears a set of diamonds in each hole.

Allignment: (None in particular)

Personality: Subtlely cold and abrasive, tends to be self-involoved and shows only minimal interest in others. Although she has been known to occasionally poke her nose into her sisters' buisness.

History:

Seiya hails from a long line of interbred psychics, a real throughbred. Her family was often quoted as having, "More money than God." As a child her training was intense to prevent incidents as she grew older; she was often left to her own devices and became increasingly introverted as a result. (Though she seems a bit more pleasant to Ayise than others...)


As Seiya grew older and into a teenager she was transfered from boarding school to boarding school because of her inabilty to get along with others (it often resulted in multiple injuries on the other person's part). Ria High School was chosen for her this semester as it already hosts a variety of 'special children' who may be able to cope with her more efficently.

Because of her ability to change her apperence and the stress of her telekenetic powers she suffers from a mild case of skitzophrenia and will often show rapid and/or odd changes of emotion or behavior.

There is something unsettling about her aura (seperate from her personality) she seems a bit...

Name: Roxy Hashimoto

Gender: Female

Age: 16

Race: Human

Arts: Element Manipulation and Ninjitsu.

Character Looks: Roxy has waist length inky black hair and misty gray eyes that show her true emotions. She stands at 5'4", is average weight, and has pale skin (because she can't tan if her life depended on it). She may look very petite and fragile but in actuallity she is very strong and can take care of herself. Her hair is mostly kept up in a ponytail.

Clothes: She mostly wears black mid-thigh length skirts, white t-shirts, and black ties. Her accessories are mostly silver bracelets (the ones without nickle in them.), earings, some rings, jelly bracelets, sweat bands, her locket...basically anything she feels like putting on in the mornings.

Allignment: Neutral

Personality: Roxy is very shy and quiet when around large groups of people. She feels very uncomfortable when she's not with someone whom she is close to and trusts. She finds it hard to stay mad at people and can't help but smile at the stupidest jokes. She loves making other people smile just so she can see their eyes light up with joy and hear the sound of their laughter. She can usually keep a tighthold on her temper, but sometimes people just say the wrong things and then she's off like a firecracker. She is easily embarrassed and can become very reserved and cold.

She has a problem with trusting people. She trusts everyone and everything and has serious trouble finding anything bad about anybody! This gets her into trouble and often leads to more pain for herself. When you first meet her you wouldn't be able to say she was different from any normal person, but if you got to know her you would know that that is a totally wrong assumption. She has the craziest ideas and does stunts you would never imagine that a normal, sane person would do. Her eyes make it hard for her to lie to anyone, so she just gave up and resolved to tell the truth. She is slowly mastering how to sheild her emotions though. She still feels terribly guilty when she does succeed in lying to someone and she doesn't like killing little things like spiders even though they scare her.

History: Roxy was adopted into the Hinaru family after her mother and father were killed in a raid. She doesn't remember them much and doesn't like to remember her life before the kind family accepted her as their own. After her parents had died her only other living relative, her uncle, took her in. He had told her that an organiztaion named Chronos had organized the attack. This, of course, wasn't true, but Roxy didn't know that. So her uncle trained her every day from the nminutre she woke to the minute she passed out from exhasution. One day she found out that her uncle had been lying to her. Chronos had not killed her parents, he did. In a fit of insanity and anger she attacked her uncle and killed him. A few months later she was adopted into the Hinaru family.

She then grew up and trained at the Hinaru Dojo for years until she was accepted into Ria High. Her adopted family was quite poor and couldn't afford to send her to a special school so she had to attend public school until she could earn enough money to pay for Ria High. She worked four jobs to earn this money. She was a waitress, a mechanic, a filler for entertainment at the local clubs, and she helped around the dojo.

At Ria High she will continue training and one day become someone who people can respect and look up to.

Recently she was caught up in her homework and training, so she hasn't had any time to spend with anyone. She left Ria for a while to go and visit her family. While she was there she was reminded of some painful events that happened in her past, and now, more than ever, wishes to see her friends again.

Any weapons/armor you have: A small dagger her biological mother had given to her before she was killed.

Any items you have: A gold ring her adoptive father gave her, a jacket her adoptive mother made for her, and a black crescent moon shaped locket that her biological father gave her before his death.


Any battle skills/magical powers you have: She can read ones emotions by looking into their eyes (Which is a window to the soul), she has incredible persuasive powers, and she has almost mastered the art of ninjitsu. Her strongest controlled element is Fire, but she is working on the other elements.

Character Flaws: (1) Trusts everyone, (2) Is very backwards and clumsy at times. (3) She's allergic to nickle. (4) Her energy tends to act on its own free will at times, keeping her in places, making her do stuff, and sometimes causing her pain.

Friends in the Realm: None.

Enemies in the Realm: None.

Lover: Ryuu Oda
