1. Story 2. Plotline 3. Rules 4. Profile Skeleton 5. Profiles 6. AnnouncementsSTORY Two groups, the Noswald Empire and the Fyrlandt, have been at odds for over a hundred years. Things have never been an all-out war but the two countries are constantly battling it out for just the good of their own people. Oddly enough the battle here and there spills into the streets, and usually ends up killing a few civilians. What could possibly stop this? A magical sword called the Shining Force. Many adventurers look for it, but generally to feel powerful or respected. One group of people band together in search of the sword, and as luck would have it one of them is able to draw it. As luck would have it, it happens to be a child warrior. Pulling the sword from the ground activated a massive place called the Geo-Fortress where they immediately call their home. The problem is that they must defend it from the greatest evil in the world, which is not the two empires, rather the dark force of Malxatra.
________________________________________
It has been a century since the evil tyrant, Malxatra, was defeated by the Heritors, Toma and Cyrille. The Geo Fortress rested back on it's rocky summit and Toma, Cyrille, and their allies began to live in peace. Even the war between the Noswald Empire, Fyrlandt, and the Elves began to die down. Twenty years later, the war sparked up once again as a dispute rose among the Noswald Empire and Fyrlandt, throwing the Elves into their war without reason. Their endless battle has lasted for over eighty years now and many new spells have been created since then. The La Vaes, leader of Fyrandt, had developed a spell that is capable of wiping out an entire city in the blink of an eye. With these new powers, the Noswald Empire's army have also became much stronger, even inventing a revolutionary device, the revolver. Although, only a select few have a hold of these weapons, those being the higher ups among the Empire. The people cry out day after day for a new Heritor to arise and end the foolish fighting, but their pleas come to no avail. The Geo-Fortress is once again undetectable, covered in a rocky surface, waiting for the chosen ones to claim the powers of the holy sword, Shining Force. Many have tried to pull the sword from the alter, but none have yet to prevail. Will a new Heritor ever emerge among the people, or will they all be doomed to live in an eternal battle?

1. Story 2. Plotline 3. Rules 4. Profile Skeleton 5. Profiles 6. AnnouncementsPLOTLINE Many people are camping within the ruins of a village called Yi'El. Stories have rumored that the Holy Sword is located among the rocky area, but few are daring to try and locate it. Many monsters plague the lands, killing ignorant warriors and merchants that attempt to locate the blade. Many of tried to find it. None have succeeded. Seventeen years ago, two children were born; a boy and a girl. Both grew up in seemingly normal lives. The boy was from a nomadic tribe, a descendant of Toma and Cyrille, but ignorant of that fact, while the girl was a Noswaldian, born and raised in a middle-class family. Their path's crossed after they had decided to go adventuring and they soon became friends. Eventually, they ended up in Yi'El Village, intending on locating the famous Shining Force. The swords within the Geo-Fortress, covered in a rocky surface, begin to glow, resonating with some force nearby. Friends and allies will aid them on their future adventure, along with many foes that will try to destroy them. Will they choose to save the world from war and chaos, or will they lead the war and conquer the entire world? The human mind is capable of being unpredictable, so we shall see.
Their story will unfold in a world that is shared by humans, demons, and beasts that is constantly devastated by war. The world is divided into two main kingdoms. The Noswald Empire is home to the human race and the demons rule the southern territory, Fyrlandt. The demons consist of two groups; Magnus and Quintol. The Magnus have a more natural talent in offensive magic, while the Quintol are more proficient in support magic; such as healing. There are other beasts that will attack the adventures along their journey; varying from weak to strong.

1. Story 2. Plotline 3. Rules 4. Profile Skeleton 5. Profiles 6. AnnouncementsACCEPTED PROFILES BOYS Quote: Protagonist
Name: Edge Lokina Gender: Male Age: 17 Race: Human Physical Description/Picture:  Class: Swordsmen Allegiance: Independant Weapon: .jpg]Nihonto Spells/Skills: Minor ability to cast fireball, but it is rather weak. His main skill lies in his swordplay and speed. He can move faster than the average human and can fight better than most highly ranked members within the armies. Personality: Stubborn, Hot-headed, kind, naive, protective, and perceptive. Edge despises meaningless fighting, bringing him to hate both the Noswald Empire and Fyrlandt Bio: Edge was raised in a nomadic tribe, but didn't originate from there. He was left found outside one of the tents crying one night. His parents had abandoned him for unknown reasons. He grew up into a warrior among the people and a good one at that. At a young age, he hunted more than a normal man and could defeat people three times his size using his skill with a blade and speed. When he turned fourteen, he was forced to leave his tribe. He had returned one day from a hunting trip to find his entire tribe being massacred as a battle between the Fyrlandt and Noswald Empire broke out near them, bringing them into the destruction as well. He fought as best as he could, but his tribe was slaughtered. After burying the dead, he stepped out into the world with the clothes on his back and little food. A couple years later, he had met a girl along the way, finding out her name was Delaine. They soon traveled together and became friends. They fought often and argue terribly, but they always seem to forgive eachother and work well against monsters and other enemies. Lately, Edge and Delaine have been in the ruins of Yi'El Village, looking for the Shining Force as well. They have been there for a few months now without any luck, but he feels as if they are about to find it. Master: Demon Deimon Quote: Name: Sora Gender: Male Age: 16 Race: Half-Breed Physical Description/Picture:  Class: Mage Allegiance: Idependent Weapon: None (fists) Spells/Skills: He can use various spells from every element, and some defensive spells, but he doesn't know any healing spells Personality: Fairly calm, he doesn't anger very easily, He is easily impressed and rather playful, he is very self conscious, which can lead him to be a little shy as well. He is also unsure of himself sexually, which further makes him a little withdrawn. However, if someone threatens a friend or someone he cares about he won't hesitate to take them down. He acts very young for his age, but that is mostly because he never remembers growing up or even really his age, he thinks he is around sixteen but something bad happened when he was young that caused him to forget everything. Bio: When he was born his body radiated so much mana that it almost killed his mother, this massive swelling of mana manifested itself as the wings that you can see on his back, the four wings he has often earn him titles such as "the angel" and things like that, which thoroughly annoys him. Unfortunately for the young child, he grew up without any knowledge of his father or his suspected whereabouts. At a young age he started practicing magic with out a teacher... which was catastrophic he accidentally destroyed their home and half of his village when he was 13, but it used so much power that he went into a short coma and doesn't remember anything about what happened, since then he has gotten a hold on his magical abilities, and just wanders around helping who ever he thinks needs him, and trying to find things that will help him regain his memory. Master: katsra Quote: Name: Korsu Gender: Male Age: 18 Race: Centaur Physical Description/Picture:  Class: Swordsman Allegiance: Independant Weapon: A Two-handed sword that he can weild with one hand if he has a shield Spells/Skills: Though he has no skills in the ways of magic, he makes up for it in other ways. He has high agility and speed and will use it against an enemy. He not only fights with his weapons, he uses his hooves also. Though not as agile as a human, he is more agile than most of his race and if he cannot go around a person. He will go through. Personality: Korsu is normally calm and analytical. When he gets to know someone, he becomes outgoing, fun, and protective. He doesn't like when his friends get hurt. He is very susceptiblel to the emotions around him and in the case of extreme feelings, he adopts the feelings of those around him. He is a carefree person until he has something he needs to get done. He then concentrates on that sole thing and will not quit until it is accomplished. Bio: Korsu was raised as a normal child for the first few years of his life. His parents then started to teach him the way of battle, hoping one day he would achieve something. He studied hard and learned quickly, soon exceling in what they were teaching him. He would always be the victorious one when the adults set up small compititions between the children. He grew up this way for 14 years of his life. He then began to tire of this constant repetitive life style. Once he was skilled enough, he was fitted with his own armor and his own weapon. After he accepted these gifts, he bid his childhood home a goodbye, wished his parents luck, and he set off in search of adventure. He traveled for a year, helping villages with their problems and has now reached the village ruins of Yi'El, in hope of a new adventure. Master: Onner Quote: Name: Emperor Grimwald Iceheart Gender: Male Age: 52 Race: Human Physical Description/Picture:  Class: Knight/Emperor Allegiance: Noswald Weapon: Iceblade of the Monarch as well as the revolutionary weapon of status, the revolver. Spells/Skills:The General frowns upon the usage of magic within his vanguard, as he feels only the weak and cowardly hide behind their sorcery. His prowess with weapons far overshadows that of most mortals, and even demons have come to fear his cold-hearted gaze. His only magic, you could say comes in his form of disbelieving its power. His hatred and malice towards all sorcery grants him a resistance towards all magic, though to his misfortune, this also includes the healing magic of priests and healers. Personality: Grimwald is a very solemn and sinister individual, he fights with the ferocity of a titan, while remaining as shrewd of a strategist as the legendary tacticians of old. His lack of patience for incompetence and incredibly harsh discipline keeps all of his men in their top forms, particularly those under his direct control. Bio: Grimwald Iceheart has become a name uttered in only fear or respect, if not both. He was born into poverty during the early years of the war, his parents, unable to provide him any proper education, as they were only a maid and a guardsman, taught him the way of the blade. He was inducted into the Noswaldian order of knights at an early age where he progressed at an astonishing rate, despite his common heritage. Aside from his frequent fighting with his fellow students, he received remarkable merits for his achievements in the field of strategy. In one particular occasion, he led a troupe of knights into a den of assassins that had been plaguing the capital without losing a single man. As the years went on, he rose quickly through the ranks of the Noswaldian army, soon gaining the rank of general. It was from this point on that his reputation skyrocketed, as both a deadly combatant on the field and a shrewd strategist as well as an incredibly focused leader, bordering on recklessness. The Emperor of Noswald had been slain in an assassination attempt by the Fyrlandt Empire. Through a unanimous nomination, though it is unclear how much bribery and threats of death influenced it, Grimwald was soon the new Emperor of Noswald. It has only been ten years since that fateful day, but ever since, he has led the empire in its never ending struggle against their mortal enemies. He seeks the Shining Force as a way to end this war against the Fyrlandt Empire once and for all. In General Grimwald's hands, the future would belong to one Empire and the true dominant people of the world, even if the rest of the world must be slaughtered in the process... Master: Tonas Quote: Name:Klaudnir Whitebrow Gender:Male Age:165 Race: Dwarf Physical Description/Picture:  Class: Warrior Priest Allegiance: Independent/Shining Force Weapon:Axe and Shield Spells/Skills:Klaudnir is a fount of energy for his god, Murgoth. He is possessed with powerful restoration and a few select spells as his primary offense, such as calling down lightning from the heavens or causing flames to shoot from the ground. Personality: Klaudnir is one of few remaining dwarven civilizations still around to this day. They are considered to be a dying race, long past their prime. This particular dwarf however, believes in his faith and believes in his people. He is a steadfast, loyal and wise companion who will do whatever it takes to ensure that the good of his own people, and those that show good will towards them will be taken care of. Bio: Being the high priest of Murgoth for nearly a hundred years, Klaudnir has become wiser and sharper as decades passed by, while the morale of his people began to dwindle, there had not been a clan leader in centuries, and the people of Steelforge were beginning to lose hope. It is at this time, that Klaudnir calls to his kin, telling him that he was informed by the Highfather Murgoth himself, that a blade of legend had reappeared to the east, and the one who wields it would judge the fate of the entire world. He announced his departure to attempt to possess the blade, or at the very least, counsel the one who owned it. He should arrive at the Geo Fortress, the rumored ruins in which the relic was housed, very soon... Master: Tonas Quote: Name: Kirak Gender: male Age: 19 Race: Human/Demon Physical Description/Picture:  Class: Swordsman/ Mage Allegiance: Independent. Weapon: Sword{in pic) Spells/Skills: can use a little dark element magic, but mostly uses sword. Personality: quiet, distant and somewhat void of emotion. Bio: Kirak remembers his name, but little else due to the experiments the former La Vaes conducted. He knows nothing of the world, which naturally makes him a bit naive, but he's not one to hold a grudge. His ability with a sword seems natural and he doesn't seem affected when he kills something. Master:KuroSeiryu

Has a good eye and satisfactory aim. The best archer among the young generation of her family, she can shoot up to three arrows at a time (four arrows when she feels it is necessary and has the time to focus on all four). By channeling some of her power through her Yumi, the arrow, usually a bamboo klazuya or yotsuya, will go at great distances. Personality: Kind, calm, and honest. Has a tendency to snap at Edge, but most of the time is able to manage stress and anger with ease. Struggles with her hatred of the Fyrlandt that has been taught to her. Candy is her secret indulgence. Bio: Raised in a middle-class Noswaldian family, Delaine was raised to hate the Fyrlandt and was expected to fight for the Empire when she became seventeen. Trained since she was three in the art of using the Yumi through the art of Kyudo, Delaine found the skill her emotional outlet and practiced every day. Seeing her loved ones go to war became a source of pride and joy for her family and she looked forward to joining the ranks until she of her relatives returned and told her of the horrors of battle. Taking his advice, she ran away the day before her birthday in order to avoid being drafted and to "see more of the world through different eyes". Taking her weapons, clothes, some food, and a few healing supplies she wandered aimlessly until she met Edge. Seeing him as an arrogant warrior, she reluctantly agreed to travel with him at first. As time passed, however, she found him as a good friend despite their arguments. At the moment they are searching for the Shining Force with no success. However, she finds this better than fighting in the War for one side. Master: Kunoichi Haruhi Quote: Name: Kora Life Gender: Female Age: 18 Race: elf Physical Description/Picture:
Class: Swordsman Allegiance: Independent, Weapon: A staff, and long sword. Spells/Skills: She’s got little magic talent which is a real shame because many elves have a big magical gift. Kora is much more Into Healing with what little magic she has. She can heal wounds ranging from an arrow in the shoulder to a broken ankle, but anything potentially fatal might be beyond her. She’s strong for her size, and speedy too. The kid knows when to move and how to get where she needs to go. Personality: Determined, Independent, and daring, Kora has a mind for adventure and she will go to great heights to find it. She’s been known to stumble into things before she was ready but never arrive late at any of life’s opportunities. Bio: Kora was born into a small Traditional Elfish home. She had two older siblings, her father worked from dawn till dusk, and her mother was never home. They lived in the heartland so there was no farming only real business to be done. Kora’s older brother went off to find the Shining Force when she was fourteen and ever since she wanted to find it too. It’s only been a year since she left home but so far The girl’s managed herself quite nicely. Master: dragonhealer Quote: Name: Dalcia Rani Gender: Female Age: 15 Race: Wolfing Physical Description/Picture:  Class: Rogue Allegiance: Independent(Fyrlandt) Weapon: Dual daggers/ her claws Spells/Skills: Because of her race, Dalcia has a keen sense of smell, and hearing, and therefore is a proficient tracker. Her speed is remarkable, and she is skilled in the use of daggers. But, she is more adept in weaponless combat where she puts to use the advantage of having claws. She is however physically weaker than most, and relies heavily on hit-and-run tactics. Dalcia has almost no magic, but the little she does have is put to use in minor healing spells. Personality: Pessimistic and sometimes distant, Dalcia does not come across as the friendly type. She is quick to anger, though it is shown as a stony-cold silence instead of a fiery outburst. She is generally soft-spoken, but is by no means shy. Dalcia will say what needs to be said in brutal honesty, and won’t hesitate even in the face of offending the person in question. She is a wanderer, and usually spends her time alone lost in thought. Bio: Dalcia grew up deep in Fyrlandt country where mysterious forests grew in multitudes, and she had been part of a wolf clan that was part of the Magnus. Since she had been a young pup, Dalcia had been a disappointment in her ability of magic or lack there of. Around age 6, Dalcia showed a preference to daggers. Taking heart that their pup was not entirely worthless, she was put through an extreme training regime that pushed her to the limits, almost killing her several times. This lasted most of her life until Dalcia turned 13.Sick of training, and of her parents oppressive training, she ran away taking only her dual daggers and the clothes on her back. Dalcia since then has been wandering the country doing what she wants when she wants, and has long since learned how to survive on basically nothing. Lately, Dalcia had heard rumors that the Shining Force was located in the ruins of Yi’El Village. Drawn there more by curiosity than a need to find it, Dalcia has delighted in watching buffoons generally make fools of themselves while they look for the sword. Master: raerain Quote: Name: Sei Gender: female Age: 139 Race: Dragon Physical Description/Picture:  Class: Mage Allegiance: Fyrlandt ((La Vaes)) Weapon: Staff {in pic) Spells/Skills: She is a master of both fire and ice magic. Personality: Quiet and uncaring. Bio: Sei had always shown great skill in magic since she was young. Several demons envied her skills and tried to kill her in various ways, even some her own tried to kill her. Naturally Sei never trusted anyone, she simply continued to study and train. She looks down on humans as inferior creatures, but is also intrigued by how they struggle to live. Master:KuroSeiryu Quote: Name: Ella Northington Gender: Female Age: 235 looks 19 Race: Demon Physical Description/Picture: Demon
 Class: Mage and Archer Allegiance: Independent Weapon: A bow that can with-stand magical pressure and a sliver, crystal staff Spells/Skills: Her light spells are her strongest, but she does know some dark spells. Her strongest light spell deals with healing. Her strongest dark spell deals with draining energy, not life. She is able to to cast spells on the arrows she shoots. She has two forms. Personality: She is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet, but also the meanest if you ever call her Bella. I suggest not. She can also scare easy and tends to cry when she is angry. She likes to keep to her human form. Bio: Ella grew up in a small city with her mother and father. She has to older siblings, brothers, that always pic on her. She learned to fight from her father, even though at the time she did not want to. She was quite good at it and that made the training get even harder. Then her mother would teacher her to be a proper lady at the same time making her a little confused at times. Finally it had finished and Myia could do as she wished with her life. She took on tournaments to keep herself from losing her grip on her skills. She won some she lost some and that was fine with her as she travels around the country. Master: Nex Remeo Chloe Agnew Name: Gender:Female Age:100 (looks like her late teens) Race: Full Demon Physical Description/Picture: Human Form:  Demon Form: Class: Ninja Allegiance: Demon independent Weapon: twin fans Spells/Skills: Her specialty is speed and wind she knows high level wind spells and can fly using the wings on her back Personality: Narcisistic, cruel, short tempered, superficial, (if she doesn't like you) Sarcastic, controlling, and a little bitchy, but very loyal (if she does like you lol) Bio: The spoiled daughter of the demon lord and brother of Sora (He doesn't know it because he doesn't even know he is a demon and he was born from a human mother and never met her) Her father has been looking for sora for some while using rins power to search for him because she can switch easily between her her human form and demon form which makes it easy for her to be in the human world without causing a commotion... her more sentimental side really wants to find her brother and meet him but she would never let anyone else know that, not even him. She has known where he was for a while but she was told to wait to find him until now... Master:Chloe Agnew

Edge shot up in his sleep, drenched in cold sweat and breathing a bit heavy. He shook his head then grabbed it, unable to remember what his dream was about. One thing was plastered into his memory though, a faceless figure, standing in a field of dead bodies. He shook his head again, removing the image from his head, then lied back down. He turned his head to the side, seeing Delaine sleeping a few feet from him. The fire had died hours ago and the only thing illuminating the night was the moon and other fires around the village from adventurers, also looking for the legendary Shining Force. Edge closed his eyes, trying to fall back asleep, but found himself unable too. So, he sat up, put his shirt back on, then stood up and walked to a ledge overlooking a river below. He sat down and stared up at the moon. It didn't take long to lose himself in thought, thinking back to his past. Although it was terrible, he would not forget. To do such a thing would make him feel weak. Edge could overhear laughter from another group of travelers, looking over to see a group of bandits. He was surprised they weren't going around, trying to steal stuff from them. Two teenagers, traveling alone and looking not to powerful. One of them had learned what happened to those who tried to steal from Delaine and Edge. Edge had woken up in the night, and let's just say, the bandit didn't wake up for about two days. Edge looked back at the full moon and soon lowered his head, letting a sigh brush past his lips.
