Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ok, the basic story here is that in this current world there are two races, Humus (human) and Gelus (elfish creature), for many years there has been dispute between these two MAIN races. I say main because there are others. Two thousand years before this set time period, no war was fought until the creation of Dvilan Tower. This tower is made of Cyrista Stone, a stone known for holding Mana. Mana is the basic life-force of all creation in this world. Before the tower was made, storms rained over the land, eruptions came nonstop, and droughts lasted for years. This tower was made to take the mana of the universe and use it as an artificial heart for the planet. The tower was built by both Humus and Gelus alike and this is the dispute of the two races. Who owns the Dvilan Tower?
Now, in the year 3257, the two races are warring and destroying one another for the property of Dvilan Tower. The Humus believes they own the tower through pure strength and willpower that had constructed it. The Gelus believe it is theirs because it was the Gelus that crafted the Cyrista Stone. However, the war is a silent war. The two sides have not fought openly to decide this matter, yet it has caused hate crimes and killings in dark alleyways.

The name of this Planet is Rathrum. (Just letting you know)

(Btw, any explanation of stuff, please ask)

List of races:
Humus - The human race, known for a juggling morality and easily tempted. They have pure hearts but not know of the dangers some choices make. Known for willpower and perseverance. The Humus special skill is Crisis. Crisis is an ability used at near death, this ability allows a Humus to double (almost thriple) there strengths at once in one quick burst. However, this can become fatal to a Humus.

Gelus - The elf race. They are highly intelligent and possess a calm nature. Rarely tempered but have a superiority issue. Skills in magic and have knowledge of most languages. Gelus have two special skills that are almost alike. They are called TwinCast and InstantExalt. Twincast is an ability that allows the caster to cast two different spells at the same time. InstantExalt will cast the same spell but with a bigger punch.
However, these skills take a long time to master, and can cause severe damage to the caster if done improperly.

Strohs - Knome-like creatures. Small bodied and are easily exciteable. They are pure beings who not know of any evil. They share blood with the Gelus race but inherited a shortness factor. They are skilled in agility and magic. The Strohs have a unique technique known as Weaving. This will allow the Strohs to take two spells and combine them into a new. However, if the two spells do not combine properly, then the new spell is useless.

Septus - These are serpent like beings who share blood with the Humus. They are usually thin creature who have snake eyes. Their morality is a bit shaky and could be considered corrupt. They are skilled in agility and fighting with brute force. Septus have one major ability and one subordinate ability. The main ability is Instinct. This allows the user to enhance a single strength (power, speed, evasivness, ect.) and increase it twofold. The other ability is known as Camouflage.
This can only be used in dark areas, but allows a Septus to blend in completely with the surroundings.

Sideo - Creature whom haunt the realm of the living. They attach themselves to clothing, suits, armour in order to take on a presentable form. They have no ability in magic (even with Crysita stones) and have low fighting skills. However, they are able to move objects, absorb mana, and open gateways between realms of the dead and living. Sideo have a telekinesis that is what some would call a Poltergiest. Also, the Sideo can go between Realms but cannot linger in the realm of the dead or become lost for eternity.

Now rules for this are that before you can rp in the story, you must first make a small profile of your character in a post, then post your rp thingy. xp

Also, letting you know, Humus is not the magical type race but is able to use magic through Crysita stones. Gelus don’t need this. Remember, if you are Humus NO MAGIC unless you HAVE a Crysita stone. Gelus, for you all, you are not as physically strong as Humus, unless you trade your magic for physical attributes. But that's your choice. sweatdrop

Anyway, no godmodding, no auto-kills (unless its monsters that are NPC) and please, unless it’s your character's personality, be nice. stare
