And for Attiks, let me warn you, you are working with a strong cliche. There's nothing innately wrong with that, but if you want to be original you should work with it. Find something about your character that you can make and call your own. Put a new twist on it. Make something about him a little different. If I went into details I know I'd end up trying to make your character change the way I want to, so I won't. Think about it.

Name: Raine Emerson
Race: Human; French-Breton to be specific.
Age: 17
Sex: Female

Personality Traits: Logical, rational, intelligent, intuitive, pensive, and pragmatic. Raine feels things very deeply, but does not ever discuss her emotions because she considers them "useless distractions." She represses her emotions because she fears losing control of them, and attempts to rationalize things that make her uncomfortable. I.E: For Raine, Love= Release of sex hormones, dopamine, and norepinephrine...during which the human soul undergoes feelings of deep--DOES NOT COMPUTE! WARNING! WARNING!
However, her life among the monks has made her a very insightful and intuitive person, and even if her dependence on the logical, utilitarian, and corporeal prevent her from having a faith in spirituality, she at least acknowledges it and understands it to a high degree. So she's more of a theologian than a neophyte. When it comes to communicating with others, Raine loathes two things: Small talk and sugarcoating. Again, she considers these, "Useless distractions." For her, everyone has a purpose, and if they are not currently attempting to fill that purpose, then they are useless and she doesn't want to have anything to do with them. She values purpose and intelligence in her fellow human being, and even though she doesn't like small talk, she has no problem with debating philosophy at length, since she will walk away from that conversation learning something new. Of course, living the majority of her life among the chaste while not taking the vow of celibacy herself has left Raine sexually and emotionally repressed. She does not understand love.

Physical Traits: Graceful and lithe in appearance, but gives of an aura of "definiteness" that is almost intimidating. Raine is quite thin, due to a meager diet, but has a lovely litheness in her musculature, like a dancer. (Which is surprising because Raine does not dance. Ever. No, seriously. EVER.) She has long, wavy black hair with warm brownish-red undertones, and a "heart" face (wide forehead and narrow chin.) She has a long, graceful neck, and strong jawline. Her eyes are mahogany (Reddish-brown) with very long eyelashes, and she has a narrow "celestial" nose (That is, a nose that looks concave when looking at her face from the side.) Raine hardly ever smiles, but the corners of her mouth are naturally pulled up ever so slightly so that it always looks like she has a fading smile. Her eyebrows have strong, defined arches, and her hair is usually either worn under a headscarf or hood, or let flowing down near her waist. Raine has very pale skin (A four on the Von Luschan scale) and her usual outfit consists of a pretty, lacy black dress under a floor-length navy-blue hooded cloak. She is a little taller than the average girl her age, which adds more to her grace and her slightly intimidating demeanor.

History: Raine's parents were very busy, but they wanted the best education possible for their daughter, so they sent her to Adamscroft Abbey where she learned Medicine, Herbalism, Latin, English, drawing, writing, arithmetic, science, and white magick. Raine, having no desire to spend her entire life at the Abbey to be a nun, left when she turned 16(As per abbey requirements) and now wanders the world.

^-^ I'm new around here but my character is one I've run for a while ...with a few changes to make her new.^_^ mostly need to work on my grammar and spelling. as I'm sure you'll be able to see. Id love some feed back on her though thanks ^_^( shes mostly for the standard midevil fantasy game but can be adapted for most anything.)

Name: Elizabeth Ann Ragashi

Race: Human

Age: 23

Sex: Female

Personality Traits: She is very much a free spirit, she tends to come up with crazy ideas and is always cracking a joke. She doesn't take life seriously and is out to live as much as possible and go out in a flame of glory. Shes a bit of a thinker and dreamer and very much a feeler but she doesn't like to let it show, she has a wall she put up to protect a soft very emotional core the only person to successfully tear down this wall is her husband he thought her its ok to let other people in and shes slowly learning to trust her self to others, though that wall of sarcasm and joking is still there. She love to have fun and to go on adventures and tends to be the one who gets in trouble, but she no helpless maiden in distress. Shes loud boisterous and some would say crazy. Her element of choice is fire. Shes also an avid reader and lover to learn even if the knowledge will do her no good at all. In fact it is this curiosity that usually gets her in trouble.

Physical Traits: Her hair is white blond and chopped super short, she doesn't like to take time to do anything with it so she just keeps it short, and its usually all mussed up like she just rolled out of bed. Her eyes are gray, but have been known to change from time to time with her mood. Her skin is pale in the winter and a soft tan in the summer, her coloring over all is fair. Her features are angular and sharp she stands at 5'6" most of witch is legs, she has long legs but a fairly short torso. She usually wears a blue or dark green tunic, tan pants and soft leather boots( if any shoes at all). She always has a pendant around her neck in the shape of a dragons claw clutching a small orb that changes colors based on the elemental energy's of those around her, as well as long coat with many many pockets that hold her various arsenal of small daggers and short swords, not to mention the other random knickknacks she always seams to collect. She has no magic in the usual sense but rather a void of magic ( to be explained in further detail in the history)

History:
Born in a small town somewhere in southern Germany, she lived with her parents for most of her younger child hood, she was born in to a family of semi strong magic users and was supposed to have the gift as well or so it was amused, so despite the fact she showed no sign of the talent she was sent to training to be come a wizard at a young age, the town of her birth was a training place for many of the small towns in the area. Unfortunately the training triggered what is known simply as the Void, a rare occurrence were one who was supposed to be born with magic is born with a compete lack of magic creating a sort of black hole that sucks in any magic around it and uses it as its own. Given the young age of the triggering and large amount of magic around her at the time she completely lost control and began draining the fellow students and some of the teachers of their magic, eventually her body could take no more and she collapsed relising the stolen energy in a massive blast that killed many including her parents only a few of the students and the strongest of the teachers survived.She was asleep for a long time, during which the strongest of the survivors crafted a pendant for her that works as a revers shield, it lets magic in but doesn't let the void out, they then blocked her memory leaving only the instruction to keep the pendant with her always.(i have the specifics of the void worked out but its long and lengthy i can post if any ones interested)When she awoke she was very much alone her village was all but demolished, she wandered from place to place learning to steal what she needed till she was taken in by Lanyx, who taught her to fight and gave her a home. She now lives and fights as part of a Resistance to the demon influence in the world as part of Lanxy's organization. She met her husband on one such mission and they have been married for two years now. they live above the tavern that they both run when they aren't out adventuring. As of this point she has yet to recover her memory or learn of the void she carries. unbeknown to her, Matzuki( her husband) and herself have a link that allows them to cycle pure magical energy thru each other this keeps her from completely draining him every time the pendant is removed and is why she hasn't discovered the power she has.

Mikaela Loque- Your RPC's past is very intriguing, might I ask what type of RP she was made for?

Name: Kasai

Race: Undead

Age: 46 at death, 300 years dead, 58 years undead

Sex: Male

Personality Traits: Kasai is a very kind hearted person, always nice to people he meets, and tends to be completely calm in threatening situations, which he often talks himself out of. He also hates to use his magic to do harm, and cannot resist helping out those in danger, whether they want his help or not. He stays away from religious places, out of the fear it may affect him. He's not afraid of fire though, as he can control it very well.

Physical Traits: Kasai's body has been surprisingly resistant to decay, and the only way you can tell he's dead is the grey tone of his skin. He's very tall, about 6'5", and weighs 120 pounds. Years of experimenting with magic have left him with burns and scars on his body, mainly his torso. He has long, black hair that is dirty from being unwashed for so many years. His eyes are a deep crimson, a memento from a failed experiment. He wears a simple, unmarked grey robe, as well as an ankh on a chain around his neck.

History: Before his death Kasai was a talented mage known far and wide. His skill in magic was unrivaled, and he was often asked to perform for royalty. Eventually, one of his rival mages, Kendal Smith, challenged him to a duel out of jealousy. On the day of the duel, both of the mages arrived at the place they agreed on. But, Kendal had no intention of playing fair, and shot Kasai down with a crossbow. The bolts fired were poisoned, and Kasai had no time to heal himself, and he died shortly thereafter. 300 years have passed since the incident, and Kasai has arisen from the grave due to the recent actions of nearby necromancers. Alas, no one is likely to remember him now,even himself. You see, after moving into undeath, he had forgotten everything about his past life. So, he decided to name himself Kasai, after the graveyard he was buried in, Kasai Cemetery. Since then, he has wandered around the world, picking up odd jobs and working in various armies. Yet, he can't help but feel something is wrong...

Umm...Fantasy, medieval RPs. That stuff I added about Norepinephrine and all that crap? I think that Raine would also have a decent knowledge of anatomy because the Abbey she went to studied cadavers (But only those consented by the deceased)...similar to Rembrandt's piece here. Something about it inspired me. Like, rationalizing something visibly horrible would give Raine a sense of power over things. Like the dudes in the painting...or at least the ones that don't look like they're going to yark all over the place.
So yeah. Alternate universe fantasy-type stuff. The typical.

"Mysterious" isn't really a personality trait. Try "Restrained", "Reclusive", "Withdrawn", "Cloistered", or "Subdued"
PostPosted: Wed Jan 06, 2010 5:01 pm


I've been RPing for quite a while now, but I'm none too confident about how good my character profiles are. This is for a fantasy RP, bordering on a medieval warrior-type character. Any help at all would be great, especially with the personality traits section.

Name: Vyspol Tiarskel
Race: Human; Mediterranean descent
Age: 21
Sex: Male
Personality Traits: While he is on the battlefield, he is absolutely incapable of any emotion. On the streets and in the marketplace, he is a withdrawn, composed individual, easily able to drink more than his fair share at the local pub. When irritated, Vyspol is viciously sarcastic.
Physical Traits: Perhaps the first thing you would notice about Vyspol would be his piercing, pale blue eyes. These eyes contain the remorseful shadow of the laughing youth he once was. Beneath his eyes are bruised purplish-black bags that came about due to sleep deprivision. His sun-bleached, shoulder length, tan hair has a light reddish tinge and is very unkempt; resembling that of one who has not brushed or cut their hair an several months, which is not far from the truth. The beginings of a beard were also appearing on his face as patches of reddish-brown locks. His teeth are for the most part strait and white, with unusually sharp incisor teeth. Lightly tanned tin stretches tightly over his broad shoulders and well defined, supple muscles. Vyspol's outfit is his military uniform; dark tan leather covering his upper torso and shoulders, leather shin gaurds, and what could only be described as leather shorts. Underneath the leathery armor is a long sleeved burgundy thermal top, as well as burgundy thermal pants. He is almost always bare-foot. A thick, black, leather belt holds up his shorts, pants, and a plain black leather sheath. Inside is an ivory sword, about a meter long, with the flat of the blade being three inches wide. The hilt is a modest cross, while the handle, being long enough for a two-handed weilder, has a black leather strip wrapped around it. Slung over his shoulder is an ebony long-bow, with a quiver of arrows strapped to his back.
History: Vyspol led a rough life from the moment he could walk. While he was little, he only had one friend, and they were exceptionally close for several years. He was a farmer's boy, and he never really understood what a good life he had. That is, until he turned 14, when he and his father were drafted into the army by the warlord of the land. Vyspol's father didn't survive the training. After about two years as a soldier, the corps discovered Vyspol's prodigal skill with a bow and arrow, as well as the sword. It wasn't long until he was sent on solo assassination missions. All of the things that they made Vyspol do scarred him, emotionally as well as physically. Those memories still haunt Vyspol, especially while he slept; a thing that he quickly gave up as nightmares effected his efficiency level.

Here's one of my very bare bones profiles, I didn't work hard on this one. I just wanted the idea behind him on paper, so I could get to playing him. I'll post up one of my more in-depth profiles a little later perhaps.

User ImageName - Jix
Race - Gimpi
Theme - Gaia-Lore Based Role Play Character
Profession - Alchemist
Alignment - Good
Personality Quirks - Pyromanic. Intellectual. Prone to Experimenting.
Other Physical Attributes - On each palm is tattooed a silver pentacle. These are key to his two magical abilities as they are the focus points for his magic. He must direct one towards whatever he wishes to enhance or hex. Also, he is plagued by chronic Hat Hair...

Magic, skills, and abilities -

Flight The wings that extend from the side of his head are capable of flight. In fact they can magically enlarge themselves to be able to support his body weight twice over, enabling him to carry a passenger.
Claws Located on the feet, as you can clearly see.
"Buff" In short, he can magically make things more powerful. Never himself, but he can make a blade sharper, a person stronger or faster, a machine more efficient, a magic ability more potent, or an energy more pure or more explosive. This ability is directable and has the range of anything he can make eye contact with. However some thing that are very large require touch.
"Hex" The exact opposite of his "Buff" ability. He can remove strength, potency, ability, with merely a touch. He can sap a person of their strength, dull weapons, cause a machine to malfunction, and dampen magical abilities, and 'short out' 'snuff' or otherwise, fizzle sources of energy. Notice that this works opposite of the enhancing abilities of buff, requiring that a object be touched to be hexed, unless it is very large or an energy.
Brew Potion As an Alchemist, Jix can create a array of quasi-magical elixir's, concoctions, and brews with various effects. From healing, to physical enhancing elixirs, to explosive vials, to acids. Also included in this, though it is not a potion, if his ability to craft fireworks.

Kirby- That profile is very difficult to read. I am curious as to how you came up with the name. It made me think of a movie called "Princess Mononoke", but it was originally Japanese so the pronunciation of that one is Mo(as in more), no, no, ca(as in cake or cane).
If you could rewrite it, checking for spelling errors and typos, I might be able to read it well enough to help.

Ten Tails-That sounds like a very interesting character. I like the black/white theme with the powers, and the personality/abilities seem like this character would be fun to RP with, with his exploding vials, fireworks, and odd but overall good actions.

Tangy- The profile looks good, but the character doesn't seem very exciting. I think it might be that I have seen a few characters that are very similar to yours. I think Wayfarer, Rabscuttle or Wolffan could give you better information on how to improve the character.

Name: Skyy Hayashi
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Apperence: [x] Don't zoom in, it blurs her pic. What you can't see in the pic is that she has gray eyes, and a tattoo on her right shoulder blade of a phoenix. Her tattoo
Bio: Skyy was born into a family of assassins for hire. Both her parents were from Japan, near Kyoto, and immigrated to America a year before she was born. They moved to New York city a few years ago. She's been trained by her father starting when she was about eleven. Her mother homeschooled both her and her little brother. So far she's considered one of the best, and has earned the nickname 'Ghost' for the fact that she leaves little trace that it was her that killed the target. About a year ago her mother died of cancer, and it hit her family hard in that her younger brother was very close to her. She hasn't really put her heart in what she's doing as much as before, because if she makes a mistake her father will still yell at her. Though she's old enough to ignore him, she takes his advise. At times it seems she has two personalities, a more serious one when she is on a job, and a softer one that is reserved for family and the few friends she has.
Personality: Most of the time Skyy is not someone you would expect to be an assassin, as she is a fun loving girl that is nearing her 21st birthday. She does have a temper that does show at times. When she's around her little brother, she's the carring older sister to him. Though he knows she's an assassin like their father and mother he looks up to her. She has a good sense of humor, though dark at times. When she's out on a hit, you see a compleatly different side of her. She could be described as cold and uncarring. A serious face that is only a mask in a sense. She shows no mercy though may let the target say his or her goodbyes over a phone. That's rare for her to show though so don't expect her to be a soft faced girl. She enjoys what she does, almost too much and dreams of passing her father in skill.
Other: She draws in spare time and is very close to her younger brother who didn't follow in the family trade. She's also semi-fluent in Japanese, mostly using it with her father when they are disscussing a job in public. She's terrified of spiders and snakes, refusing to go near them when she can.


Yeah my current favorite OC that has been adapted for an assassin roleplay I'm in. Just wanted an opinion but don't tear her to shreads please? ^-^
