To Follow the Score...
Is to find Prosperity...
Sacrifices must be made...
For the good of Auldrant...
{{P L O T}}
ND 2018
The world is run by Yulia's Score. Both the countries of Kimlasca-Lanvaldear and Malkuth follow it faithfully, even insofar as to sacrifice the Scion of Lorelei when the time comes...
Seeking peace, the Emperor of Malkuth, Peony IX, had sent his trusted advisor and friend, Colonel Jade Curtiss, commander of the Third Division of the Malkuth Imperial Forces, in order to deliver his letter. However, upon breaching Kimlascan territory in the land dreadnaught Tartarus, the Colonel and his crew were attacked by a rivalling Kimlascan landship, the Paladin. Despite his delivering of the letter of peace, Colonel Curtiss was apprehended and now awaits execution, along with his one surviving subordinate, Marco. The letter? Discredited as Malkuth lies. The reason? Fraternizing with events to transpire as per the Score. For his treacherous actions, Peony has received a harsh warning from the Order of Lorelei--follow the Score faithfully, or abdicate the throne.
The young noble, Luke fon Fabre, has been sent to the mining town of Akzeriuth, in order to evacuate the people who are suffering from a leak of miasma. This information, however, is a hoax. Luke will be led to Akzeriuth, where he will meet his death at the hands of the master he so idolizes--Van Grants.
But there is dissent in the ranks; those who would reject the Score in order to prevent war and preserve mankind in a different way...
Those who would reject the Score seek to free Colonel Jade Curtiss, as well as save Luke fon Fabre from his grisly fate. Both the fonic artes of "The Necromancer," and the hyperresonance of "The Light of the Sacred Flame" may finally tip the scale in their favor...
Little do they know that rescuing the Necromancer and the Light of the Sacred Flame will yet cause war to erupt between the lands...

1. All the rules are absolute. If you have an issue, PM me about it.
2. You may not use chatspeak, except for in OoC comments.
3. OoC comments shall be denoted by a form of OoC such as parentheses or other, and/or in the post style of "Think." This makes the OoC easier to find if it's not accompanied by an actual post.
4. Follow the Gaia ToS. That's given.
5. No cybering.
8. No killing off other characters, unless permission is given. In which case, PM me and tell me that you have discussed it.
9. PM me profiles for any canon or made-up characters. I will see to it that they are properly categorized on the board. Also, ask me to join in PM form.
10. This is to be long-term. If you can commit yourself to it, I'd be very appreciative.
11. Please be literate. And by literate, I mean use decent grammar and spelling. Spelling I'm not so bad with. Really, as long as I can read your post, you're in the clear. 3nodding You may be better than me, or worse than me. Either way, use my posting style as an example. Write in story form, no asterisks for actions or first-person POV.
12. Please stay in character. 'Nuff said.
13. Profiles: If you want to be a canon character, PM me a sample straight off. Don't worry about asking if you can join, that's what your sample's for. Title your PM "Blinding Scores" so that I'm aware of what you seek of me. Heh. Your sample should be at least four-five sentences. I will reply and tell you that you are accepted, or what you need to improve on before I accept you. Don't worry, I'm lenient on that.
If you want to be a madeup, you are also free to PM me a sample straight off. But title the PM "Bloody Wars." In the PM, include all the necessary information for your character that you think is necessary. I'll question you for more if I seek it. Also include a sample so that I can see your rp-ing style. If I like what I see, you'll be approved. Once again, I'm quite lenient.
14. OoC fighting to a minimum. If there's a problem, I'd be glad to act as your mediator, or if you have a problem with me, I am a very nice person, and will be happy to talk it over with you.
Keep in mind that these rules are indeed absolute. Should you break them, I reserve the right to strip you of your role in the roleplay. Let's rp and have fun with it, 'kay? biggrin
I'll add more if necessary.

{{C H A R A C T E R S}}
[[N E U T R A L]]
((Yes, this is Asch. Luke the replica does not exist, for the real Luke was never kidnapped by Van.))
Name: Luke fon Fabre
Age: 17
Bio: Luke is the son of Duke and Mistress Fabre of the House of Fabre. His mother is a relative of the Kimlascan king, and so he has lived in a lush environment for all of his life. Nonetheless, he grew restless in the home in which he was mostly confined to, and so his parents assigned to him a teacher of the sword, so that he would be able to occupy himself with something. He holds his teacher--Van Grants--in the highest esteem, unknowing of the man's part in the "fulfillment of the Score." His asset to Kimlasca--should he survive--would be his power over hyperresonance , which is one that only he has.
Status: Untaken
Name: Jade Curtiss
Age: 35
Bio: The Colonel of the Third Division of the Malkuth Imperial Forces. He is also known by the title of "Jade the Necromancer," due to various unsavory rumors floating about concerning his ways. In a way, he is of the same importance to Malkuth as Luke is, which is why he has been captured and held in the prisons of Baticul awaiting certain death. He does not seek war, but he will fight for his country should the time come. His asset to Malkuth is his intelligence, as well as the ability to wield both the spear and fonic artes. He has mastered nearly every spell he could manage, even several forbidden ones...
Status: TAKEN: Kratos of the Cruxis
Name: Guy Cecil (Gailardia Galan Gardios)
Age: 21
Bio: Guy is the servant of Luke fon Fabre, and also secretly a surviving noble of Hod, Gailardia Galan Gardios. He knows the truth behind all of the Order's deceit as far as the destruction of Hod, but cannot convince his servant and friend, Van, of such dealings. Knowing what the Score promises, he doesn't want to defy it, but neither does he want to continue on with following something that caused his family to die. He knows that the Hod War would be tame in comparison to full-scale war between Kimlasca-Lanvaldear and Malkuth. And so he remains undecided.
Status: Untaken
[[F O L L O W E R S]]
Name: Van Grants (Vandesdelca Musto Fende)
Age: 27
Bio: Van was born on the Isle of Hod, and used to serve the house of Gardios. When he was forced to create a hyperresonance and destroy his home, he was left for dead by the ones who forced him to. However, he was not aware of the Score's involvement in the issue, and so he ran to the Order for sanctuary. There, he was raised in the knowledge of the score, the Hymns of Yulia, and the sword. At the same time, he was forced to care for his sister primordially on his own. Tear had been born after Hod's fall, at the cost of their mother's life. Knowing that a one Jade Balfour had caused this to happen, and believing that the Malkuth Empire had abandoned Hod to its fate, he directs his vengeance to them and seeks to fight a war so that Kimlasca may find prosperity.
Status: Untaken
Name: Natalia Luzu Kimlasca-Lanvaldear
Age: 18
Bio: The daughter of King Ingobert VI of the Kingdom of Kimlasca. Natalia is a very caring individual who wants only the best for her people. She believes in the Score since it will grant her country prosperity. Despite her kindness to her own people, however, Natalia is very judgmental and spoiled. She can be very overbearing as well, no matter how pure her intentions are. It is her belief that for spreading the false rumor of Malkuth wishing for peace, Colonel Curtiss should suffer the most gruesome execution.
Status: Untaken
[[S E P A R A T I S T S]]
Name: Tear Grants (Mystearica Aura Fende)
Age: 16
Bio: The leader of the separatists who seek to find a better solution to the prosperity of the world than the fall of Malkuth. She is the sister of Van Grants, though their views are extremely different. It is her belief that the Order was involved in the destruction of Hod, and although it hurts her to side against Van, she knows she must. The Score leads to a path of destruction for one country just as it leads to a path of prosperity for another, which is not good. Tear has been trained in the use of fonic hymns for power--she is a Melodist/Hymnist who uses the power of Yulia's hymns to aid her, as well as daggers and spells. She was taught by Legretta of the Six God-Generals.
Status: Untaken
Name: Ion
Age: 14
Bio: Ion is the supreme leader of the Order of Lorelei, the Fon Master. However, he doesn't believe in blatantly following the Score. Rather, he believes that the Score is only one of many possible futures. Because of this, he sometimes goes at ends with the Grand Maestro of the Order, Mohs, who believes that the Score should be dutifully followed. Ion remains calm in most situations, and has the ability to utilize Daathic fonic artes. These end up tiring him after one use, though, so he uses them sparingly. While he is on the side of the Separatists, he is not considered a traitor, for treason against the Fon Master would be the real move of a traitor.
Status: Untaken
Name: Anise Tatlin
Age: 13
Bio: Anise is the relatively newly-appointed Fon Master Guardian of Ion. She isn't quite certain on his views, but will follow him nonetheless, for she believes that ultimately, what the Fon Master says is law. She's able to use some fonic artes, as well as fight with her puppet-doll, Tokunaga. It normally rests on her shoulders, but when she needs it, she uses her own fonon signature to enlarge it.
Status: Untaken
[[5 ~ G O D ~ G E N E R A L S]]
The Five God-Generals are under the jurisdiction of the Commandant of the Oracle Knights--Namely, Van Grants. They follow him without complaint or issue, and are fiercely loyal to the Order of Lorelei.

(This roleplay is officially open. ^^ My first post is coming. Also remember that you are free to play as any other character from the game, should you choose to. I've merely outlined the most important ones, alright?)

"Colonel, let me wrap that a bit tighter."
Jade Curtiss looked up at Marco with a smile.
"Feel free," he said lightly, prompting his assisting officer to tighten the cloth around his head. When the Tartarus had been ambushed by the Kimlascans, he'd ordered the Third Division to defend itself accordingly, while not harming the enemy.
His mistake. The mistake of a seeker of peace. The entire division was wiped out within an hour, leaving Jade and Marco surrounded. Instantly, they had used a Fon Slot Seal on him, very aware of his threat concerning fonic artes. And although he did still have a spear at his disposal, the Necromancer had been hard-pressed to use it. Eventually, his holding back led to someone striking him on the back of his head.
He'd woken up a day later in this cell with Marco. And two days had passed since then.
"I'm sorry I couldn't protect you from their attack. It was so swift, I didn't get the chance to move..."
"At least you aren't dead, Marco. The rest of my soldiers are, but you are not. That in and of itself is a victory to me," Jade told the man, wincing slightly as the torn cloth from the other man's clothing tightened around the injury on his head. "And worry not, I've been working on undoing the Fon Slot Seal."
"With all due respect, Colonel, I doubt even you are clever enough to undo it before they execute us," Marco said plainly.
"Perhaps not, but I might be able to undo it enough for one Flame Burst to help us escape."
Marco still looked skeptical.
"I know that they got you in the chest, too. And I very nearly broke my leg. We haven't had food or drink for days. It's going to be hard to escape from Baticul, especially since the prisons are within the castle."
"My, aren't you the pessimist?"
"I learned from the best, sir."
