~Wanderers~
Wanderers are unfettered by race or origin, they may come from destroyed towns or from small towns, the fact is this doesn't matter to them. they have their own motivations and don't reside in any definable group system. Some may group together, many are loners.

—¤÷(`[¤*Jing*¤]´)÷¤— " The night is young, the moon is full, and there is still dancing to be done. " ~~~  ~~~ ☆═━┈┈━═☆
The Basics
☆═━┈┈━═☆
⋙ Nick names: (None she knows of)
⋙ Age: (Twenty-One)
⋙ Gender: (Female)
⋙ Race: (Human)
⋙ Group: (Traveller)
☆═━┈┈━═☆
Details
☆═━┈┈━═☆
⋙ Height: ( 5'5" )
⋙ Weight: (108lbs)
⋙ Personality: (Jing has gone through an extrodinary chance this last year and a half. Her interactions with Jang and Kaiden both being the most likely cause to her change. From the cold and almost distant woman who had as much social experience as a wolf might in a farm, as would be expected due to her extreme isolation from infancy until just several years ago, one could almost say that Jing has bloomed open. She is far more open in voicing her thoughts and feelings, but has learned the etiquette of speech and how to avoid saying things that might upset the one on the receiving end. She has also taken a great deal of liking to banter, generally seeking out Kaiden as the two often bicker about the most useless of things. Usually when leaving, Jing is either amused with a cover of irritation or furious, with Kaiden hopefully fleeing.
Despite the changes, Jing still retains certain aspects of her previous self. When angry, one still has as little chance of stopping her as an average man might against a grown angry bear (with the exception of Jang perhaps). At night, when the moon is full and illuminates the sky, Jing often seeks isolation, spending these nights alone with only her father as company, a quiet voice in the back of her head. When upset she can become cold and distant, all while trying to act indifferent about the matter. She is fiercely loyal, as always, and once she has accepted someone into her "pack" of trusted companions she would trade more than an arm and a leg to see to their safety, if necessary.)
⋙ Biography: (Full version coming soon)
⋙ Weapons/Abilities: (For as long as Jing can remember, she has always been a rather strong woman. Not in the emotional sense, though that bodes true too, but physically. Living alone in the mountains she would never have known, having only interacted with other beings once, and Lykourgos never seemed to mention it. Anyways. Jing's strength is off the chart, capable of lifting and hurling boulders, or smash through them should she want to take the trouble of getting a grip. That said, it would do one wise to not anger her, and should you be unfortunate enough to do so... Run.
Along their journey, when it was established that Jing needed a weapon for when she came across those armed she was unable to fight barehanded, Jing was given a weapon that would add more stress to Kaiden's nerves. A kanabō, a large club weapon made of a rather heavy wood and reinforced with strips of metal to give it defense from blades while reinforcing its destructive capabilities. The handle of the weapon is wrapped with leather, and the pommel is decorated with a tassel made of various strips of colorful fabric. This weapon is most commonly seen being hefted about on Jing's shoulder, its weight and size posing no problem for Jing.)

⋙ Player Info: (This was my very first character made, when I joined Last Dream originally. I don't think I had any clear ideas of what I was going to do with Jing, nor with Lykourgos, and while that still remains much the same today I am glad to have brought her back, as it has been a great pleasure for her, and for me to be sure, to have found Jang... ah... and Kaiden too, I guess {bloody cat}. Ah, but for as to why I made Jing, a woman, my first character... don't ask, I honestly don't have an answer but rather made her on whim.)

The Basics
☆═━┈┈━═☆
⋙ Nick names: (Jang, Bard, Fool, Nitwit, Songbird, the Golden Minstrel... He's accumulated quite the repertoire. Mainly because few dare attempt to remember his full name.)
⋙ Age: (He stopped caring centuries ago.)
⋙ Gender: (Male, with a female symbiotic presence mindlessly inside himself.)
⋙ Race: (Enhanced Human)
⋙ Group: (The Wandering Minstrels) ☆═━┈┈━═☆
Details
☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Height: (5'7")
⋙ Weight: (100lbs)
⋙ Personality: (Jangliba has two personalities, his shell perosnality, of a carefree foolish happy-go-lucky bard, and an inner personality which reflects all the horrible experiences he's seen and experienced. this inner personality only comes out in positions of grave danger, when Jang finds the need to lead others.)
⋙ Biography: (Wandering through the town of Ilquint this seemingly harmless and benign young bard encountered his first new long term companion in at least decades, preferring a solitary existance up until this point. The chance encounter occurred as they were both evading the town guard. Jang had been to Ilquint a few times before, normally avoiding the guards as he slipped into the city, but this time they'd caught him. As Jang rounded a corner, The girl he'd come to know as Jing, tried to occupy the same space, but headed in the opposite direction. Jang was sent flying and would've been captured for sure had the girl not "Rescued" him. by fleeing with his body off into the desert.
While heading through the desert Jang began to get to know the girl who had saved him, instructing her to head towards the oasis. It was during this long walk Jang had learned she'd actually just come from this direction not long ago, and when they reached the oasis they would have to stop in with some friends. Sadly, they never made it to their destination, As swiftly approaching them was the gypsie's caravan, in pursuit by the deadly Black Sand Geckos. Monstrous lizards almost the size of a large tiger. Thew two set to rescuing any potential survivors Jing seeming to have greater ability to assist them. However as a Geko nearly cornered Jing, Jang rescued her with a surprising display of power, creating a cone of sand and wind, ending the Geko's rampage. Shortly after this display, Jang and Jing parted ways, the bard not one to display his powers so prominently.
A small amount of time passed as the bard travelled once more by himself, heading on foot up past Linkton. While on the way, near Lake Angelus Jangliba came across the Neko assassin, Kaiden. Soon after even meeting with the shy bunny boy he may or may not have been seeking to find. For a time things were peaceful and as it started to rain the bunny boy invited them inside. And as luck would have it just as the cat and bunny were starting to get on edge, Jing the wolf girl arrived to break the tension through violent outbursts. Jang, too oblivious to consider that she'd tracked him down, thought it was odd, and after another short bout of Vilence the three set out for Linkton. They arrived just before the town fell under attack. The group fought small mindless minions and other nuisances which appeared, the fighting never growing too intense since the town was not slated for decimation. However the battle was still lost regardless. Jing's body became inhabited by the symbiotic presence of the creature which raised her, Lycourgos provoking a surprising reaction ofd recognition on Jang's behalf. Jing's body was allowed to pass into a state of unconsciousness and Jang carried Jing off until the new travelling companions met again. After a few days rest, Kaiden led both Jing and Jang off to his old home town, where they discovered a surprising truth about the young man's childhood friend Adane. More surprising was the fact Jang was able to act with deft knowledge regarding Adane's condition as well as almost scientific examination and explanation of the situation. After almost a week, Lycourgos confronted Jang about his past, and finally the truth was revealed. Jang had been born back in the time before this current era, when technology was rampant and humans still believed themselves the only sentient presence on the planet. Jang had been a soldier in a highly classified experimental unit, each of the members being retrofitted through gene therapy and protein based mechanical enhancements which increased speed strength and mental faculties and even provided them with the ability to telekinetically manipulate an element in a crude bludgeoning manner. The team consisted of four of these super soldiers, Big Tex, Johnny, Slyvia, and Jang. They were as valuable on the battlefield as an entire legion of normal soldiers and were normally sent on covert assignments within the bounds of enemy occupations. Their final mission was supposed to be a simple babysitting job. Some scientists thought they were onto some major find, requested special protection. they'd have been assigns a skeleton guard had not one of the expedition leaders had connections with the head of the higher ups. And so the four of them did their jobs. for five weeks it was as boring as they had predicted, and then one of the floors collapsed under an extension of the scientific envoy who were exploring one of the smaller side tunnels, revealing a vast catacomb of un-known origin and design. News of this development, leaked to the nearby smalltime dictator. Like all men who forcibly controlled a small country, he wanted more power and more money. It wasn't long before the siege began, trapping the three within the chaotic swirling vortex of attacking soldiers with a response of flames earth water and air. They held off the invading force for weeks, falling back in front of the sturdy ruins which they'd so recently discovered. However the time was beginning to take its toll on the reserves of rations and water. any rescue attempts by the governments being heavily burdened by bureaucratic red tape. The soldiers started to skip on meals to extend the duration of the time they could hold out for, at least that was the hope. Johnny was the first to die. picked off by a sniper, an impossible shot down a rocky corridor. He was scouting on the enemy, Big Tex took it the hardest and snapped. he was shot seven times before they finally took him down. He'd decimated their ranks as a result. This provided an opportunity for Jang and Sylvia to try to move the scientists, as Johnny had managed to warn them that the brutes had found a way in behind them. Big Tex had held them off long enough for them to evac, but en route to the decided fall-back position, they somehow triggered a trap. The whole area collapsed, Jang and Sylvia fell through into what was most likely the central room of the ancient compound. While looking for some way out, Sylvia accidentally activated a long dormant stasis chamber releasing a crazed symbiote which attempted to overpower her mind. in the intense pain the woman Jang loved put a bullet between her temples. with the woman now dead, the symbiote leaped into Jang, trying to erase his consciousness and take over his body. After a brutal mental battle Jang woke up in a government hospital. If they'd held out six more hours, the cavalry would've arrived to save them, instead Jang was the only survivor. They held him for questioning for several weeks, but after his recovery, the man disappeared and took on a new name and a new identity. A wandering Bard from there after.)

—¤÷(`[¤*Kaiden Auron Malac*¤]´)÷¤— " I no longer travel with world alone, for together we now follow the path before us. "  ☆═━┈┈━═☆
The Basics
☆═━┈┈━═☆
⋙ Nick names: (Kaiden)
⋙ Age: (19)
⋙ Gender: (Male)
⋙ Race: (Sealed Neko/Symbiote Bond)
⋙ Group: (???- Wanderer/ Black Shadow) ☆═━┈┈━═☆
Details
☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Height: (6'1'')
⋙ Weight: (165 lbs)
⋙ Personality: (Kaiden has changed greatly from the quiet and cold young man he once was, much to the reason of Jing and Jang. The once quiet young man is now more open to speak, prone to argue, and most importantly able to find humor in things he earlier would not have. He still retains his somewhat individualistic approach to things, concerned with himself first and foremost. Oddly, he is so much more prone to help people in need though, in fact he'll even put himself in harms way to achieve such a feat. He will not sacrifice his own life for another person without thinking it through. He has retained that quality from his past well enough. He is more verbal in his speech though, choosing more to express his opinion's rather than by cold annoyance. This has proven quite fruitful in him not looking like he's in constant hate of Jing and Jang, because he actually enjoys the two's company.
One thing has not changed with Kaiden, he is still as blunt as ever with sarcasm that can be scalding at times. He does not hate easily though, in fact he has a list of zero people on the list of people he hates. Kaiden can be surprisingly friendly to people though, opening up to those close to him and sharing his feelings more openly. This is only to close friends, and at that is is spare as Kaiden still has a bit of a protective shell he hides behind to keep people from realizing everything he thinks.
Kaiden has developed a bit of a... problem though. It wasn't unheard of before to see him talking to himself, but now he carries on conversations with what appears to be the air. To most people, this is just insanity. In fact, he's carrying on quite a logical conversation... with himself. This happens often, much to the annoyance of him as he actually is talking to a person, he is speaking to the spirit that he is bonded too. She tends to be a bit rude to him, with the same level of bluntness and sarcasm as Kaiden himself so it's only a small wonder why he can be seen arguing with himself. Almost ironically, Adane can be seen to betray similar characteristics to Kaiden. )
⋙ Biography: (Kaiden was born and raised in Yazo which was slightly east of Kilawli. The oddity was that his family were all human, but he was born as a neko. This was an oddity in itself, but what was even more odd was that when he was three he came home with a necklace around his neck in the form of a normal human with his right eye like a cat's. Kaiden wasn't particularly the most liked person in town, but he was left alone and lived in relative peace. He ended up leaving town, running away from home, at about age eight to give his parents freedom from the pain they felt at the others in town having a distrust for Kaiden. It was during this time that Kaiden met Adane.
Adane Ookami, as she named herself, had been at Lake Angelous and had found Kaiden there alone. After talking to him she had convince him to return to Yazo. At the time, Kaiden had been almost twelve. Kaiden returned home with Adane, and the two ended up taking residence together in a house in town. At the time, Kaiden and Adane were just friends and it remained that way until Kaiden was sixteen, Adane a year younger. It was during this time that the village was attacked by exBlack Shadow members who were running from Delfian. In the fighting, Adane was killed and Kaiden was heavily wounded. Kaiden's parents were also killed as well as most of the town. Kaiden hunted down those who had caused it, and ended up receiving aid from Delfian to achieve his goals. In the process, Kaiden also was implanted with the knowledge of the Black Shadow's orginization to which Delfian hoped Kaiden would venture after finding his revenge. In the process, Kaiden's mind lost it's memory in an attempt to give Kaiden comfort over the death of Adane. He developed amnesia.
Kaiden ended up joining the Black Shadow's by walking into their base of operations, though the only reason this happened was because Deflian allowed it to be so. Kaiden was officially inducted into the Black Shadows. Kaiden performed exemplary for a elemental user, showing his skills quickly among the others, but he was always missing something, and finally he simply left the Black Shadows without warning, though this was also something Delfian just allowed to happen, realizing Kaiden would be more useful should he find his past. That was what Kaiden went on a journey for, to find his past. In the forests of Linkton, Kaiden's change began.
Kaiden met Jangliba, better known as Jang. The bard had an effect on Kaiden that no one had had before. Kaiden traveled with Jang to Linkton, but upon arriving there the two met with Jing, Jang's old friend. Jing and Kaiden started their feud on the fact that Jing smelled like a dog, and Kaiden like a cat. It was because of Jing and Jang that Kaiden fought to help the people of Linkton when the city was attacked, though Jing didn't trust Kaiden. At one point, Kaiden seperated from the two and went to fight the demon form of Rai, aiding Delfian in the process. Kaiden proved then that he had no qualm with Delfian, but he could not return. Delfian saved Kaiden's life by teleporting him away, and quickly Kaiden moved to intercept Jing and Jang and head south.
During their travels south, Kaiden and Jing actually managed to not kill one another even though the situation was prime for them to lose temper and just let loose on one another, but the middle factor Jang seemed to be the thing that held the two from murder. It was while traveling with the bard and 'dog', as Kaiden so enjoyed calling Jing, that they stumbled upon Yazo, Kaiden's old home. Kaiden was left to go explore the ruins on his own, leaving Jing and Jang alone for some time before the two went to find Kaiden among the ghost town. It was here that Kaiden found his old home, and memories. His and Adane's home had been overgrown with vines and plants in the time it had taken for Kaiden to find the village once more, but upon going in side he found there was another reason for this entirely.
Adane Ookami had died many years ago, but after death her spirit had lingered, not as a ghost but as she truly was. The plants about the house has saved Adane, acting as a support for her to live being that she was a symbiote and symbiotes required another being to live. The plants all acted together to keep her alive, forming a hive mind of sorts. She had no recollection of being a Symbiote, so she also had no clue how to break free from the plants. It wasn't until Jang, utilizing the fact that the plants couldn't support her free thinking very well, forced her out of them, reverting Adane to the original form of all Symbiote: a orb of light, basically. Adane fused with Kaiden, Jang aiding in the process, which rendered Kaiden unconscious. Thus occurred the bonding of Kaiden and Adane.
Over the next few days, Kaiden picked up pieces of information from Adane, their minds now being one, and also learned about Jang and Jing, finding out that what possessed Jing was also a Symbiote nicknamed Ly. Kaiden spent the next few weeks following in Jang and Jing's footsteps as he tried to process information between himself and Adane, slowly resolving their bond into something less frantic and something more solid, which was required for the two to hold possession of Kaiden's body at the same time.)
⋙ Weapons/Abilities: ( Kaiden hasn't changed much in his manner of fighting. He is still quite limited in special abilities while in his human form, but once changed there are some definite changes. Kaiden is still a nimble fighter, relying more on speed than strength in a fight as well as skill. He has become rather immersed in his use of shadows and darkness in fighting now, mainly because he has found ways to use it as a weapon while still using his swords. He reverts to shadows almost solely as a defense though, rarely using them as a weapon though he has certainly become quite skilled at that as well.
Kaiden has on him two arm blades, always retracted and against his forearms, as well as two swords. The dark blade, Shadow's Call, reacts more to Kaiden's use of shadows than it did in the past strengthening Kaiden's control tenfold. The blade has also taken on a odd property of having a chain form on it's hilt when fully awoken by Kaiden breaking the seal on his necklace. The chain is always wrapped around Kaiden's left arm and is only a thin chain, yet the blade seems to hint that the chain holds more value than Kaiden lets the world behold. With the Shadow's Call, Kaiden also has Firestorm, the blade of fire. This blade cannot be drawn unless Kaiden has broken the seal on the necklace, and when pulled from it's sheath the blade's fire instantly envelopes it.
Finally comes Kaiden's spirit. Adane is a Symbiote, so it goes without saying that Adane hold some actual talents for Kaiden to use. Adane allows Kaiden to create and control fire, however this is exhausting to him. Mainly she grants him the gift of being able to control Firestorm. He also can make use of what energy Adane can draw from fire, but that is not much meaning that Firestorm actually gives Kaiden energy. Adane can take control of Kaiden, though usually this only occurs when Kaiden cannot continue or something had happened to make him incapable of controlling his own body. When Adane takes control she has an easy time adjusting to the use of Kaiden's body, using it with ease as their bond is a very solid one.
During the final traveling south, towards Ilquint, Kaiden overheard Jing and Jang speaking, though much of the conversation was lost to him explaining just what Jang was. Kaiden, to this day, denies any knowledge of the conversation that was supposed to occur in private. Also during the travels, Jang was given an ocarina to play, though Kaiden had little interest in caring. It wasn't until he started watching Jang and Jing make music that he actually bothered to pay any mind, and at that it was more Adane that was interested than Kaiden. This eventually resulted in Kaiden asking Jang about playing an instrument, and thus started, at least for Kaiden, their little minstrel band. )
⋙ Other: ( Symbiote's are a race of beings created by Tal. Adane is one, and a rare one as a survivor of the process that was supposed to turn them into self sustaining people. In a way, they practically wiped out most of their race due to this making Adane extremely lucky.) ☆═━┈┈━═☆
Extra
☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Player Info: (This is Aro, and this is the third character I ever made, probably the most concerning due to his strange properties. He's always been a bit wayward, now sure how that's going to continue to play out though now that he's attached to a group of people. Anyways, the end to his bio is a bit tentative at the moment. Ah, anyone confused with the change of color in the quote, the red is actually Adane >.< )

☆═━┈┈━═☆
⋙ Height: [[ 5’6” ]]
⋙ Weight: [[ 120lbs ]]
⋙ Personality: [[ Honoka is a nonchalant woman who doesn’t really talk unless spoken to. She tends to be sarcastic and blunt around those she knows or when hearing something irrelevant. However, she’s insightful due to coming from a family of fortune tellers, and is very observant. Also, she is seen as a big sister figure to those younger than her. She brings advice to those around her, despite them being ominous most of the time. She tends to keep her distance from people due to rules enforced by her family during her childhood. She’s surprisingly stubborn when it comes to something she wants to keep. ]]
⋙ Biography: [[ Honoka was born into the Nanjou family that resided in a small village in the outskirts of Kilawli. The Nanjou were known for their uncanny ability to see bits and pieces of the future. Thus, many from across the region came to the Nanjou home in order to receive their insight. When she turned four, Honoka began her training as a fortune teller. Her family enforced many strict rules into her, such as not keeping a client’s issue close to home, as well as not feeling any emotional attachment to them.
By the time Honoka was 10, she was able to take on clients. Despite her family’s rules, Honoka befriended one of her family’s clients, Raikou Ogata. He was only three years older than her, and came frequently to the house in hopes to try and help his family’s economic situation. At times she would sneak out her house through a secret pathway to go play with him in the woods. One day while out playing, she was caught by one of her older siblings, and her family banned her from seeing Raikou on top of being confined to the house for a long period of time.
Around the time she turned thirteen, Honoka began to have dreams of the town burning, and countless townspeople crying in agony, her family and Raikou included. She tried telling her family about it, but every time her family dismissed them as nothing but dreams. Frustrated with the lack of concern, Honoka escaped from her home one night and decided to confine her worries in Raikou, who she hasn’t seen in years. However, his house was in shambles and he was nowhere to be found. It was then that her nightmares had come true after seeing a trail of smoke coming from the direction of the village. In fear of ending up like the others, Honoka fled from the scene. Since then, she traveled around the region for years, honing her abilities as well as learning new ways to defend herself from threats. Despite knowing that the fate of her village and family was destined to happen, deep down Honoka felt unwavering unhappiness and continued to hold a lingering guilt. She vowed to use her abilities to help prevent any sort of misfortune to befall on others, despite how cryptic her visions tended to be.
Over the past two years, Honoka spent her time searching for her the reasons for her powers, and as its origin. One night she saw a vision telling her she would be fighting a great battle on the side of someone…However, she wasn't sure who these people were. Wanting the answers, Honoka set her sights for Flandor, hoping someone could help her find the answers she was seeking. ]]
⋙ Other: [[ Honoka carries a lightning bolt shaped pendant that was given to her by Raikou as a child. She has a pet mouse named Akihiko that usually rides inside her kimono or her shoulder. She also has a small scar on her abdomen due to a past incident with a client during her travels. ]]

—¤÷(`[¤* Raiikel Vivek Atheris *¤]´)÷¤—"I believe that there is a subtle magnetism in Nature, which, if we unconsciously yield to it, will direct us aright."~~~  ~~~ ☆═━┈┈━═☆
The Basics
☆═━┈┈━═☆
⋙ Nick names: Rai. Foxkin.
⋙ Age: Twenty
⋙ Gender: Male
⋙ Race: Homunculus
⋙ Group: Wanderer
☆═━┈┈━═☆
Details
☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Height: Six feet tall.
⋙ Weight: One hundred and eighty-three pounds.
⋙ Personality: Raiikel tends to be distant and quiet at first, partly from being shy, and partly from slight paranoia of non-mages. However he is relatively friendly, especially if someone has a pet with them. He tends to be more open to good people, while extremely vindictive to anyone he perceives as a threat, or evil. While shy, he is imbedded with a compulsion to do good, almost always confronting wrong doers. Following that, he is rather confrontational, rarely to back down to a challenge, or respond well to hostility.
⋙ Biography: His story starts from a love between two Mages, and as the relationship deepened from mere lust to love. Going through the natural stages of most average long lasting human relationships, when the pair tried for a child, they found Valuas unable to impregnate his wife. With disappointment, the pair left their homes and went to a isolated village of Sorcerers from all magic schools that formed together to learn and create more magic. Many older sages brought their libraries of books, experience and knowledge, helping create a firm grounding for this village.
Younger mages brought their workforce, learners for this knowledge to be passed down for, and a generation to keep the village and collection of magics safe and growing. When Valuas and his wife, Tera arrived at the town, they found it completely shelled off by a magical barrier made through some older arcane magic. And even a pair of powerful mages as Valuas and Tera couldn't put a scratch in it. But once they were finally given permission, they were quickly assimilated into the way of their world, before they finally tried to get a fix for what they had came from. But, unfortunately they wouldn't be allowed.
To the more permanent residents, there was a plethora of reasons, not to mention possible instabilities for such a thing. So, Valuas began looking for a more perfected way of giving his wife a child, as it was his fault she couldn't have one. However during his long studies in the libraries, he finally found a substitute of a human babe. A Homunculus. They were close enough to a true human to have a child of. So, the obsession with the Homunculi began, and the start of years and years of toiling.
Then, after twelve years of study, experimentation and gradual soul collection, the final one began. Valuas, in his obsession, turned extremist action to give Tera a child, he became somewhat of a mass murderer on the way. Having amassed 327 souls, with most ripped straight from a body, the final ritual for creating a Homunculi was done. Ending with a sacrifice of his own soul to truly make the child great, and part of the family, before a babies cries echoed throughout the house.
Even though considered an abomination, his in essence mother of sorts took him in as one of the family, and over the years accepted his true nature fully, as did the rest of the magical town. Although, he was treated a bit special, given heavier lessons of magic until his Druid talents began to appear, where he took apprenticeship under one of the leads. While all the years studying all the left behind books his father left, a basic will and thoughts to give to his son, and a collection of tomes for his Druid talents.
Once reaching the age of ten, Tera not wanting her child to be forever dwelling in the village, left with Raiikel to show him the world from a live perspective. Instead of second hand story from older mages, or though watching glass. Knowing her child would be ageless, and eventually restless, she began teaching him in worldly ways. And to perceive things in more then just black and white. Such as his father, who did cruel things but all the while wanting to simply do one good thing. No matter how misguided it might have been.
As these travels continued, Raiikel and Tera repeatedly saw many people doing good, and many doing bad, where the young boys compulsion continually came into play. Leading the young Druid to fight or kill many a bandit, mercenary and thief. In concern of what may happen with her Son with out a large selection of spells at his disposal, she attempted to teach him 1st level sorcery, wanting him to learn the protective spell Prismatic Wall. The first time he managed to cast it, his weakness for light magic became abundantly apparent.
Just casting the spell made Raiikel scream out in pain, before his golden eyes rolled back into his head and he collapsed. A sickening hiss and bubbling flesh coming from his right hand in which he was using to cast the spell. Upon awakening to a worried mother, he found himself back at home, apparently this accident cutting off their journey only after four years. The regeneration rune allowed him to walk away from this run in with light magic without a lasting effect on his hand.
But once his tutorship with the master Druid once again started up, he received the quarterstaff that he still uses. This gift, infused with a single use spell for a critical situation, was to give him a catalyst to use magic with instead of his own flesh, in case Homunculi had another type weakness they weren't aware of. Although by now the town had decided to take on more responsibility then just collecting tomes and increasing it's own magic. But also to watching the world, and Raiikel dutifully taking many of the duties his father had, he spend a fair bit of time able to observe the world.
Mostly things hadn't been too bad anywhere to push anyone of the mages to act to help people, rather it was out of apprehension, hatred or fear, it didn't matter. But once the news of the destruction of not just three cities, but the surrounding nature. Raiikel couldn't stop himself, quickly gathering his things, confronted his master with a few other Elders on what should be done. This group of Sages gave their blessing to leave, supplying him with a small stave, and the magic books he now carries with him.
Little did Raiikel know, the true reason they hadn't acted was out of patience. They were wanting to learn more about the shadowy figures behind this abhorred act. With his impatience in his youth, the Sages did give him what little information they could manage, mainly the names of the organizations and what they seemed to be after. Seemingly destruction only, a meaningless pursuit that had gone too far in all their tastes.
⋙ Weapons/Abilities: His only weapons are essentially pieces of wood, his primary being a five foot quarterstaff that he can hide in his robes. It seems to temporarily vanish once he slides the staff into his right sleeve. However this is a enchantment for the convenience of Raiikel to not have to carry the staff around at all times. He also carries a second smaller stave on the back of his belt, beneath a layer or two of his robes. Both of these are embedded with a magical spell to be activated in severe emergencies to help ensure Raiikel's survival.
His abilities begin with simple combat training. Keeping a cool head in bad situations and learning how to take blows and return them two fold. Going further, he has natural talents in unarmed melee combat, proving to be incredibly swift and reasonably powerful through natural physical prowess. As well as competent enough to engage armed opponents while unarmed and win. Backing that is a final training of polearm combat with the nimble quarterstaff, adding extra length, flair, and strength to his combat style.
His true ability lie in his affinity for magic. As of now primarily a Druid, hence why his necessary prowess in unarmed combat, and focus on the quarterstaff instead of a more traditional weapon. However he's only a second level Druid out of nine, his progress slowed by etchings in his skin to force him to learn through focused willpower, extended study and practice. To raise his true potential naturally, and a deeper learning of magic unknowingly, to allow easier delving into other schools of magic when he seeks their knowledge. Or their power.
Etched into his back, in two intertwining symbols greatly resembling tattoos are runic symbols for regeneration and wisdom. Wisdom increases his mana pool, allowing him vast abilities for his magical uses, however his full potential is still held back by the restraining symbol, etched into his abdomen. Regeneration is very self explanatory, while it's true abilities are also held back, as so Raiikel does not become arrogant and walk into his own demise thinking he was invincible.
As a Homunculi, Raiikel has the natural ability to see souls. The primary deeds a creature commits through life overtime affect the soul, while having no difference in utility as a catalyst for life. For the ones who can see them, it changes their colors, and texture. Following that, he can also physically interact with souls freed from their bodies, mainly after death, or ripped from their body. Homunculi can also eat souls, though they have no real taste, they just have different textures for 'flavor'.
⋙ Druid Abilities:
Mundane: Read Magic: Read scrolls and spell books.
1st Lvl: Calm Animals: Calms animals.
2nd Lvl: Charm Animal: Makes one animal your friend.
⋙ Druid Passive Abilities:
Mundane: Know Direction: At all times, he knows which direction is north.
1st Lvl: Detect Animals or Plants: Detects kinds of animals or plants.
1st Lvl: Endure Elements: Exist comfortably in hot or cold environments.
2nd Lvl: Speak with Animals: Druid can communicate with animals.
⋙ Extra: Druids are nature's ally, and so as they progress through the levels, they learn three types of things: Spells, simply put, abilities to use, and passive abilities that are simply given to them once they reach that level. His abilities will update as time goes on and he gets higher levels. Druids are a secretive group, with their own secret language, Druidic, that is virtually undecipherable to anyone except a Druid, due to magics in the words themselves. They are taught this language on their first level. A druid may begin with an animal companion. A 1st-level druid’s companion is completely typical for its kind, though as a druid advances in level, the animal’s power also increases. A druid who ceases to revere nature, or teaches the Druidic language to a nondruid loses all spells and druid abilities, including their animal companion.
His compulsion to do good is tied in with his restraining rune, and as that weakens, he gets more and more true free will. He also carries two books with him, one a Druid Spellbook written in druidic, and the other a magic tome that can change it's own text to one of three books. A book of his lessons, a novel, and a mostly empty book to write in, the first few pages filled with little intelligence on the Lilith and a assassin group. Oh, and his iris' are golden. ☆═━┈┈━═☆

☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Player Info: I'm Isaac, twenty years old. Texan, so central America time. I'm usually on for a good chunk of hours, or at my best attempt to be. If i'm not posting, i've either forgotten or have heavy writers block that takes some work to get out of. I'm not the greatest roleplayer, but I do try most of the time. And for my characters, their original personalities are only a starting point, and they tend to rarely stay true to that for long developing on their own as time goes on.
I also have a fair bit of temper, and while I try not to give people too much attitude, I may end up coming off as extremely prickish for periods of time. Now, I always try to be reasonable about things and level headed, but if the wrong thing is said to me in one of these tempers, I may just go off on you. Sorry ahead of time if that ever happens, probably won't though.

—¤÷(`[¤*Candelaria Frayda Parnell *¤]´)÷¤—" When a life is spared, it would seem the light will shine down to brighten the days left. " ☆═━┈┈━═☆
The Basics
☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Nick names: (Cande, Lari, or Fray)⋙ Age: (17)⋙ Gender: (Female)⋙ Race: (many call her shapeshifter)⋙ Group: (Travler/Wander)☆═━┈┈━═☆
Details
☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Height: (5'0'')⋙ Weight: (110)⋙ Personality: (Candelaria pretty much keeps to herself. After the assassination of her parents she rarely speaks to anyone. To some she comes across as mute. To others a snob and full of herself. In reality she's just a lost soul searching. Always searching. Don't let that somber look on her face fool you into thinking that she'll be easy prey or that the patch across her right eye means that she's blind or has no eye there. She's got a touch interior though that side rarely shows itself. Whether she does this to blend in or for other purposes she's not telling. If you get a chance to befriend her and stick around long enough you'll see she's very intuitive, observant, loyal, and very respectful. There are other qualities to her, you just have to get close enough to find those out for yourself. )⋙ Biography: (Candelaria has been traveling for almost four years now. Why? Some might say that she's searching for the killer who took her precious parents away. Others might say she is searching for a purpose in life. When in fact Candelaria doesn't remember why but the impulse to move. To keep moving and not to linger too long.
It was about four years ago that the girl awoke, covered in blood but with no memory of what had happened. The heavy weight of a body that had been laying there for a while, if the smell was anything to go by, was nearly crushing her small frame. It had been her father. When she was finally able to push her body off and stand she found her mother naked, caked with blood, and sprawled out on the floor near their bed. Her stomach threaten to spill what was in there but it had been at least two days since she'd last eaten anything so nothing but dry heaves would come.
She stumbled outside their small home and into the cool crisp night. It was only then that she'd noticed her own nearly naked body. Her body shivering upon the cool assault against her skin from the wind. This night would forever be grained into her mind. Whether she chooses to block it from her memory or not. The one thing she did know, through her power, was that her parents had been killed, and not by her.
They had lived on the outskirts of Kilawli by Angelous Lake. The girl had wandered all around Eastern Kilawli and moved on through Ama Field. It was there unseen that she watched the destruction of Flandor. What kid should seriously watch something like that happen?
That was all but two years ago. Since then till now she traveled keeping out of sight out of mind. )⋙ Other: (She can be canning when she wants to. The animal she can change into is the white owl in the picture. Her right eye is her seeing eye. She can define truth from lies, though this has to be concentrated on the question at hand. It's main use is being at to see how someone dies, or if they are already dead she can determine how they died. Though the draw back is in her human form it drawn too much energy from her which is why she wears the eye patch. )☆═━┈┈━═☆

—¤÷(`[¤* Frank N. Stein *¤]´)÷¤— "That dress looks much prettier in red"  ☆═━┈┈━═☆
The Basics
☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Nick names: N/A⋙ Age: 16 ⋙ Gender: Male ⋙ Race: Chimera ⋙ Group: To be decided ☆═━┈┈━═☆
Details
☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Height: 5'5 ⋙ Weight: 213 lbs ⋙ Personality: (Frank has a case of multiple personality disorder; specifically he has two separate dispositions within his body. One of them is a perfectly normal person, in fact this side of him isn't capable of inflicting harm upon anything. The other side, much more hostile. To summarize: at one moment he can be in a field full of pansies, a split second later he could be tearing the head off of an animal. The peculiar part of his situation is that he seems to be in full control of which side is 'out' at once. ) ⋙ Biography: (Any mythical animal with parts taken from various animals, this is the definition of a chimera. The skeletal shape of a human body, fitted together with the muscles and tendons of a dragon, the organs generally belonged to that of a human but the heart originated from a phoenix.
The corpse of a fallen child was stolen from its hometown, and was modified using some of the foreign arts that were known to he mainland at the time. Through the transplanting of a phoenician heart, new life flowed throughout this young boy. The madman who had performed such an art, resurrecting the dead, was sentenced to death, and his creation was exiled and sent to the province of Lagrima.
Only just arriving to the land, he has no idea of what is happening here. The Shekinah, Lilith, or the Black Shadows, he knows nothing of any of it. Will he choose a faction or will he remain a wanderer? Only time will tell, and its all dependant on the people who he interacts with. )⋙ Other: (Frank is capable of manipulating blood, but only his own. He was not trained in any discipline of martial arts, or any other fighting style, and as such his combat can be best described as being wild.)☆═━┈┈━═☆

—¤÷(`[¤*Enko*¤]´)÷¤— "Because if it's really an eye for an eye, Then come here baby, I'll pry your heart out” ~~~  ~~~ ☆═━┈┈━═☆
The Basics
☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Nick names: N/A
⋙ Age: 18.5
⋙ Gender: Male
⋙ Race: Experiment
⋙ Group: Unknown☆═━┈┈━═☆
The Details
☆═━┈┈━═☆ ⋙ Height: 5’8
⋙ Weight: 133lbs
⋙ Personality: Quite a lot has changed over the past year and a half in respect to the experiment’s personality. What used to be an antisocial character, is now quite the social person. He’ll talk to anybody, but at the same time he’ll be observant and won’t hesitate to rely on his instincts if it comes down to it. He’s even got a companion and a friend on his journeys with him, sure it’s a bird but it is better than being the lone wolf that his former self was.
⋙ Biography: Project: 0000-1307 has no recollection of his past. Amnesia was forced upon him, by inducing a head injury when he first arrived here four years ago. The subject comes from Flandor, but is stationed here in Kilawli. He is kept in a comatose sort of state, while I work., for the safety of not just myself but also him. The purpose of my experiments is to see if I can force an element nature into a human body…without destroying the host. Due to the generosity of the people there he managed to survive , he was a homeless child on the streets in the small town, even if it was on the remnants of the food that they didn’t want. The element accepted its host a year and a half ago, two and a half years since I have taken him in. This boy certainly does possess a characteristic, being the quickest one to actually harbor the element, but the true task will be to see if he can stabilize it.
A year and a half has passed since he awoke in that destroyed building. Since then he’s learned a few things: the state of the province, control of the element to further levels, and most importantly a bit about himself. He knows where he was born, and a bit about his routes. To investigate further, he must travel to the town of Ilquint, his father’s favourite hangout place.
⋙ Other: A chain/necklace is wrapped three times around his wrist, and from it dangles a ring. Embedded in the ring is a gem that matches the exact hue of his eyes, which have gone from a shamrock green to a piercing shade of azure. Them gem is held in place by forty-two spikes which resemble fangs.☆═━┈┈━═☆
