Her eyes are a bright red laced with faint lines of orange.
Starting group: Kai-ten
Battle Techique and skills: Mostly physical using beak, claws and blunt blows with her body, but she can use some minor magic spells such as a bright flash of light to stun her oppoent, and a spell to help her for sneaking (not make her invisible, but to make people not notice her as easily) Sharp vision in both day and night, good hearing and above human sense of smell.
Personality: Usually easygoing, but is emotionally weak and doesn't stand up for her self socially. Tends to be caring and kind unless you cross her. She usually doesnt start fights. She loves to learn and wants to know everything there is to know. Rather happy, and likes to make people laugh when she's not making them bleed.
History: She grew up in a mountain village made mostly of Gryphons and Centaurs with a few elves and humans mixed in. She had a tramatic experience involving fire when she was just a little Gryphlet and is terrified by fire to this day, she even gets nervous around campfires and torches.

~animefaerie2's character~
Name: Kita Fey
Age: 19
Race: Faerie
Gender: Female
Appearance: She is 5'0. She has laveder eyes and blue hair with silver highlights. She is very lithe. Her wings can either be hidden or used depending on her mood and actions.
Starting group: Kai-ten
Battle Techique and skills: She uses hand to hand or weapon. She can move quickly and is very good with a bow. She can't die of old age or disease, but can be killed in battle, especially when wounded with iron wich causes her to heal at an extremely slow rate. If her heart is broken, she will lose her will to live and die.
Personality: She is very friendly and loves helping people. She may come off as a ditz.
History: She is the daughter of a elfin princess and the prince of the Faerie. Though the union was frowned upon she was always treated with respect. She comes from the forest.
Reason for seaking the gem: She would want to try to purify the gem so it can cause no more evil, but since the gem cannot be purified or destroyed, she wants to find it and keep it from anyone who would use it for evil.

~Camryn49's character~
Name: Ayumi Demoria
Age: 18
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Appearance: About 5" 7' tall, medium build. She has long black hair normally tied back, eyes dark brown and mysterious, and clothes the color of the night as to make sneaking around much easier.
Starting group: Meht-shei
Battle Techique and skills: She is quick and light on her feet, carrying two short swords and one long on her back. Stealing is what she was born to do. When it comes to fighting she uses her quickness to her advantage, having the other person swing and miss, wearing them down, and then going in for a strike when they are tired. She is not very strong so she does this quite often. When possible she avoids a battle all together and sneaks in for a steal.
Personality: She is friendly but rarely trusts people because they have a tendancy to let her down. Normally she is found by herself and alone with the items that she has aquired. Even though she appears to be fine by herself, it is an act.
History: Born and abandoned. Learned to survive by herself at a young age by stealing from others passing by. She has traveled through the forests and deserts, but her heart lays in the sands, along with most of what she has.
Reason for seaking the gem: It has always captivated her, the one item that was true legend yet to this day. A collection is never perfect until you have the best, the most mysterious, and the most wanted.

Starting group: Meht-shei
Personality: Disciplined and stern when the time calls for it, but loving and caring when it doesnt. He would willingly help someone else as long as it doesnt go against his code of poverty, chastity, and honor. He would never use a weapon in a fight, unless the means justified the end. he would never EVER hit a woman....unless she hit him first of course...at which point he would probably put her into some complex hold and break her shoulders....but ANYWAY...he likes the ground...prefering to travel by foot on the nice..safe....soft..ground...he is also self-consious about the scars on his palms...from a fall off the top of the mountin he only barely survived!

One day during his training he slipped off a pillar and stumbled down the edge of a cliff...barely grabbing onto some rather sharp rocks, and saving his life...and with his injuried hands and ankle he had to crawl his way back up to the temple....on the top of the mountin.
Reason for seaking the gem: He belives it will help quicken his goal of enlightemnent and fusion with the earth

~Battery Acid Included's character~
Name: Ferene
Age: 27
Race: Sub-human (bird)
Appearance: Mostly human besides large bird wings that protude from the back. They're black and white. Doesn't weigh much but Ferene wears thick armor to protect from up-close attacks. Wings are not protected though, has a great weakness against bows and arrows, magic, and hits against wings. She has shoulder length black hair and eerie yellow eyes. Stands about 5'6. Another bird-like quailty would be having sharp nails.
Starting group: Meht-shei
Personality: Friendly with fellow comrades, very hateful towards enemies. Tries her best on not to judge too quickly, but once she's made a decision about someone it normally stays that way.
History: Ferene came from a desert bird tribe. She has learned skills in using long-range weapons like bows and throwing javelins. For close-range she uses the javelin for more of defense and claws as offense. Ferene came from a family that has always wanted to possess the jewel, and has encouraged the whole tribe to find it.
Reason for seeking the gem: To give it to her family, although what their purpose is for using it she isn't exactly sure. She wants a good name in the bird tribe, not to exactly pocess the gem itself. Although she does feel tempting in wanting to use it.
