Tacitus has only one body, but two different forms. The two do not vary at all, except by power contained within. He exists both in the mortal realm and the realm of the Gods by displacing himself through a process of time manipulation that he does not yet understand, or even know about.

Status: The Nameless One, The Forgotten God [will be God of Time]

Gender: Male

Marital Status: Single (kinda~but complicated)

Height: 5'11"

Weight: 189 lbs

Hair Color: Grey

Eye Color:
Left: Orange
Right: Green

Physical Description:
Mortal Form: Tacitus appears as a male in his early thirties with already greyed hair and two prominent black horns protruding from his head. He prefers to wear white shirts with green cargo pants and boots, regardless of formality. Over this he wears a trenchcoat magically enhanced to hold what he needs. To finish off the look he wears a green visor, wraps his hands to keep his hand from twitching too much while wielding a weapon, while prominently displaying his GPD badge for all to see.
Immortal Form: As the ticking of time remains ever constant, as does Tacitus's form. The first of two exceptions in his form compared to that of his mortal body is that his badge is gone, replaced by a chain around his neck that constricts around his neck if one tries to remove it. Upon this chain is a locket of sorts that hasn't been opened in three millenia. The second change is that the watch he wears upon his arm is not a single watch, but he seems to have more than three dozen watches, all with different times and completely different ways of tracking time. Although some don't appear to be tracking time. Aetas keeps his two maces, until they are made into quasi-dieties, upon his back. They are held in midair by a mystical force that changes their position to track time like the hands of a clock.

Personality: Tacitus, in either form, is highly concerned with the wellfare of others and making sure plans go as they are laid out. While he is flexible, he is a bit overprotective as a GPD commissioner of the citizens of Gaia, but as a God this feeling only deepens. This is counteracted slightly as he knows he can't stop everything all the time, but he tries his hardest to always acheive the best end to any situation. This can sometimes get in the way of his destined neutrality as the God of Time. Other than that he can seem completely random at times and sometimes what he does has absolutely no meaning.

History (clarified): Tacitus was born of the religous tendencies of a small group of pagans who were dedicated to the pasage of time and what was to come. In an age none left remember, Tacitus was a Pagan God of Fate. Against the will of the high council at the time, he took a mortal as a bride, without raising her status to that of an immortal, fearing it would corrupt her purity. To stave off death of himself, but more importantly his wife, he made a plea to the council and offered up a solution he knew they would think worse than death. Tacitus set into motion a long string of events that would force him to forget everything he was, his wife, and everything he knew. He also wove in a clause that would slowly recover his memories, if they could be found. As he slowly began losing himself he set his wife into stasis until a day he could be with her once more and banished himself from the heavens. Over the long years he had many mortal forms, and skipped through time, not aging for long periods, but always forgot with each death. In one of his more recent forms his son that had come from what would have been his future killed him and stole the powers the body contained. To make sure his father would never oppose him, he hired three men to always track and kill him, the Gorokian Hand, a band of three Ancients, with power rivaling the gods themselves when working as a unified force. The cycle of killing continued until the stasis on Tac's wife was unlocked and she was returned to the mortal realm, though lacking her memories as well. The two were fated to meet and lived a life as farmers, until the Gorokian Hand found Tac. He was forced to watch them rape his wife until they killed them all one by one, Tac being the last. In a vengeful rage, and with his dying breath he was flooded with memories and energies as the killing of his wife took him back to the day he was sentenced to death by the Council. In his rage he leveled the countryside with one fell swoop and passed into his next mortal body. This is the body that has been seeking his pasts lives, always searching and always finding just one more clue. The clause to break the cycle had been set into motion and he was remembering things of his past lives at an alarming rate. Could he be returning to his natural state?

Currently his wife has been ressurected by the weakened Gorokian Hand and was released because she had no knowledge of Tacitus they could use to find his new form.

Tacitus spends most of his Immortal days looking through the timelines to find his past, and once found he will assume his proper role as the keeper of The Wheel. The Wheel is a hampster wheel inside a cage with a little guinea pig looking creature that aslways keeps running. Oh, and that whole Time God stuff too ^_^

Weapon(s):
Mortal Form: Tacitus prefers to use two magically intelligent weapons, pistols in fact, of his own creation that feed off him in a sort of symbiotic relationship. These weapons confer upon him certain abilities when feeding enough power and he in turn gives them abilities such as regenerating ammo. (unlimited ammo basically) Caritas is colored green and the colors swirl as streeks of orange run through it, Tac wields Caritas in his right hand normally. Orcus is a flaming orange that pulsates with orange light, swirling with color as green streaks run though it. Caritas is calm and peacekeeping, while Orcus is always trying to make Tac blow something up. Each pistol seems to be twice to three times the size of a normal 9mm pistol, but weighs the same. In combination with Tac's GPD armor they can be modified to larger sizes and alternate uses.
Immortal Form: Aetas would prefer to use two balanced maces of an above average size, one larger than the other, both made from an alloy of Blackrock and Temporum. Blackrock is a dwarven metal that acts as both metal and stone, whichever favors the wielder. While Temporum acts as it were both a part of the timeline and outside it, whichever is more favorable to the wielder. These maces are linked to his mortal form's weapons in term of intelligence and likeness in name, but not power transfer or consciousness. They are named Caritanus and Orcanus.

Later these maces will be given a human-ish form as advisors and saints, as it were. Like servants, but held in higher regard, even to the point where they are set up as quasi-dieties.

Abilities:
Mortal Form: Due to his links to the court of the gods he has an unsually strong control of divine magics, which he uses mostly for healing. In addition to this he has moderate control over the passage of time and links between points in time such as portals. More importantly he can feel the Threads of Fate as he once could, if not bend them to his will, allowing him a glimpse into the future or possibly events to come. A secondary explaination for this future sight might lie in his position as God of Time.
Immortal Form: With increased connection to the gods, and being one as such, he has even greater control of divine magics. In addition to his normal control of time in his mortal form he can move about it at will in order to find himself more properly. As with being the God of Time Aetas gains the ability to sense distortions in time, correct them if they are out of control, and even cause them and change certain events in the past only. He can also pull people out of a particular point in time if need be. Any point in time.

Weaknesses:
Mortal Form: Besides the lessened weaknesses of a human, Tacitus is far too trusting, but as far as physical and magical frailties go, he cannot stand up well against the elemental energies or soul manipulation.
Immortal Form: If the passage of time were ever to stop in its entirety, Aetas would cease to be. Aetas has a certain affinity for timepieces, so seeing one destroyed can either set him into a rage or break his morale.

Name: Robyn Gallowsraven
Race: Neko (half cat half human)
Age: 20

Hair colour: deep brown that softens into a far lighter colour at the tips
Eye colour: dark lavender
Tail and ear colour: a pair of normal cat ears, normally stooped down at either side of her face, which are pitch black with white tips.
Height: four foot

Robyn's past: Robyn was born to a high class family, sworn to protecting the village, and were the only mages for miles. Mage's at these time weren't very common the odd member in normal (none-blood mage) family turning out to be able to control the power of fire, ice, water, wind and lightening.

Robyn's family were somewhat different from the rest, her mother having bore two children, both seeming completely opposite in their ways. Robyn being a kind, curious and gentle soul; the complete opposite of her older brother who was loud, brash and didn't know how to control his temper. They were opposites, complete and total opposites, the yin and yang as the villagers called them.

The day came when a war threatened the family, Owyn and Robyn being banished from the lands, to find new lives to lead. Robyn, only being four at this time, was picked up by an elderly woman who made her work for her living until the tender age of 16 when she finally left home to get on with her life. To lead the life she wanted to live- to follow in her mothers footsteps as an ice mage.

Her first port of call was a large inn, where sitting on the floor cleaning up a beer-stain, she met Tavin. Nervous and jittery the young neko tried to help, just to be told she couldn't, and in the end to be pushed away. She didn't give up thought and sooner or later the pair of them fell totally headless in love with each other.

After a long quest to retrieve her mothers staff, Tavin got down onto one knee, something Robyn hadn't expected. So of course, still only being 18, she said yes much to the pair's joy and they were married in the same inn they had met in a few months later. The troubles didn't stop there though- Tavin being haunted by an unknown source to the extent of disappearing for a few months on end at a time.

Eventually the pair of them were together long enough for Robyn to bear two children; twins. A small girl and a little boy- who are destined to have in their own rights to a stressful childhood.

Powers: Robyn's powers appear to become far more limited inside the brink, her control over ice literally limiting her down to ice cubes, which is unfortunate. As her staff appears to be the only weapon after that and all that can really do is be slammed into someones stomach.

so i'm on the wrong account, sue me

Name: Torment Nusradai

Age: It differs between in the 300's to in the 3000's

Race: Half God

Gender: Male

Marital Status: Single, soon might change >.> <.<

(first part done by darkerdreams, i was busy -_- plus it's awesome)
Physical Description: Sharing the same impish temperament as his smile, and hidden behind a pair of jet black shades, lay a set of twilight gray eyes, the hint of violet surrounding the inner iris shifting the true color in the light. Glancing up, you can catch the faint movement of two nimble black wings almost buried under a forest of spiky flame colored hair.
~~~
(and this part just sucks cause I'm not all descriptive right now)
Aside from his facial features, Torment usually wears a loose black button-up shirt, dark blue cargo pants, crimson boots, and a black jacket that seems much smaller outside than in.

Personality: Torment is a megalomaniac, simple as that. He sees everyone as lower than him, but those few that he can see as equals he honors greatly. He counts only a small number in the group that equal him, and even fewer in the group that he sees as better than he. Don't let this fool you however, he can range anywhere from the raging fighter bent on destroying everything in a two hundred mile radius, which he has done, to a kind soul, deeply in love with nary a thought of even bringing any harm. His chaotic past and newly evicted presence of past consciousness in his head have contributed to this unstablementality. He almost never takes off his jacket or romani shades. He has learned to trust no one, and that can sometimes compromise his social relations.

History: (severely shortened): Torment was born as son to Tacitus Nusradai, a god, as Kargin Nusradai. At the time he was a mere mortal living as a simple farmer. Fate conspired to lead Torment to his death only seven years later. In a time nearly 30 years after Tacitus ressurected him, only to find that Torment had been bent by evil and hated him to the core. Torment killed his fathe rthere and went back in time to gain more power from him in past lives. He served under his father as a General when he was The Tormentor, taking the name Torment, only to slay him. On that fateful day he hired the three men that would begin an endless cycle of slaughter that would one day lead to Torment's death at the age of seven. In more recent events Torment has contributed to the salvation of his father from timelessness, but ended up bonding with an alternate self from a different timeline, forging his current consciousness. He has since expelled the two alternate consciousnesses from his mind. Torment currently pursues a mortal female, a one Kalie

Weapon(s): Torment prefers not to use conventional weaponry, but employs magical arts. He does have one item that can be used as a weapon, the Fist of Forgotten Sins, but its main purpose is increasing spellcasting abilities.

It is just under half his height and seems to be made from an odd sort of metal that makes it appear as pure flame. All down the length decorative touches have been added to give the rod a more royal appearance. Two gems are set in each side, four total, one a blazing crimson and the other a serene blue. Coming out from the front was a semicricle with small spikes, five in fact, that end with small diamond tips that glow in five different colors, but within them blazed a blue flame. Inside the semicircle is a place where it can be held with a comfortable grip

Abilities: Torment has extremely powerful magical abilities, spanning both the arcane and divine. He has mastered Illusions and Transmutations. He has the ability to tap into his own soul to increase spellcasting powers and perform some extraordinary events. Aiding spellcasting he has an ability that when a spell is cast, if the same spell is still in effect anywhere within one mile of him he can sap energies from that spell, or spells, and increase his current spellcasting energies. Along with spellcasting he has control of Neutralization energies and True Negativity. Neutralization energies are just that, neutral, and makes other things neutral as well. True Negativity is like the antimatter for matter. Among the more physical abilities he has an increased regenerative ability, healing him at an alarming rate when not fatguted.

Weaknesses: While Torment is a half god with powerful magic, he is susceptible to antimagic fields that cancel out his magic, which would leave him nearly vulnerable. Most ways of killing a human would also slay Torment, provided he is not prepared, or cannot be. While casting a spell he can sometimes be highly vulnerable, depending on what preperations he has made.

Character Name: Haelous
Race: Half Angel/Half Oni
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Purple
Height: 5'1"
Weight: 120lbs
Age: 19

Background:
Haelous is the product of a forbidden love. His mother was an Angel, and his father an Oni. His parents both only wanted to live peacefully, after being raised in an environment of war and racism. For quite a while, they lived that life in what could be considered current time (~2004) in New York City. That is, until someone realized what his parents were. His parents were killed, the entire block of row homes destroyed, and his mother's prized katana (which has never been unsheathed since it was first sheathed after being created) stolen. Although Haelous' reason for wanting to do more than lead a peaceful life is to retrive the stolen weapon and seek revenge for his parents' death, he is generally a peaceful person who prefers to avoid fighting.

Powers/Combat:
Haelous was trained to fight with a katana by his father and use magic by his mother. The fighting skills of combining superhuman abilities with a katana of an oni may be legendary along with the magical abilities of an angel, however odds are you will never see Haelous use anything more than basic martial arts or katana skills. He prefers to hide what he really is, and have everyone believe he's just a human.

Personality:
With the way he was raised, Haelous is quick to take the angelic side in a battle or the peaceful way out. Just because he's half-demon, doesn't mean he's that prone to evil tendencies. Haelous was never a worldly person and generally shys away from people as he is afraid of getting close. He doesn't want anyone discovering what he really is.

Here we go. It took me long enough...


Name: Lucas Odysseus Blaize
Nickname: Goes by "Luke"
Age: 19

Race: Human (Greek/Italian)
Eyes: Green
Hair: Dark Brown, Almost Black
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 210

Body Detail: Muscular and athletic. He works out often, and it shows, but his small stomach is nothing but flab from his eating habits.

Abilities: Luke has no magical abilities, but he has his youth and his health. He's in good shape from the sports he has played through high school and into college.

History: Luke grew up in white middle-class suburbia, alongside his twin sister Nora. Luke had a healthy childhood. Throughout his adolescence, Luke spent the bulk of his social life hanging out with Nora and their neighbor Leo, or with any pretty cheerleader that "came to worship at the temple of Lucas Blaize." He excelled in sports and school and was generally liked by his classmates. Unsurprisingly, he was accepted to U of Penn in his senior year.

Currently, Luke is attending U of Penn as planned with a major in Pre-Law. He has prospects, but as of late they basically include playing lacrosse, drinking himself under a table, and charming the pants off of whatever fine co-ed can hold his interest for longer than an hour.

Name: Audyhnnh

Race: Child of Dolorous
-->Sub race/subtype "Wounded"
--->Sub racial features: he's wrapped in bandages because his body is like the body of that wounded by the Longinus Spear

Eyes: ???
Hair: ???
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 153 lbs.
Age: ???

Background: He never spoke much of his own history, but at the end of the Wykron Revolt, his body became the container of negative energy for everything that died or lived and cursed the city. This reverted his form back to that of his original: as a Child of Dolorous, whereby his body began bleeding at open wounds and deteriorating.

He now hides behind bandages, a dark, tattered cloak, and a horrifying mask. No one has seen his real face, and it is said that his facial features will reflect the contempt the beholder has for his terrifying outward appearance.



Powers/Abilities: Controls hell-blazes and possesses super-strength. ...though none of it seems to be working during his stay at the Brink.
