The Messiah



It is the time when a cruel monarchy reigns and mercy is a word that is heard none too often. Villagers are arrested and put in jail if they look to the sky or trip and fall to the ground. The knowledge of reading and writing are forbidden and if you are caught with such knowledge you could be tried and executed. With this cruel society and monarchy in control there came the birthing of a new society. They call themselves the Fugitive Foresters. Their job is to save those who are to be executed for unjust reasons and they bring them to help their cause. Once a person is saved they become a Fugitive Forester. They learn the art of battle and self defense so that, when the day came, they could overthrow the monarchy and free their people.
Once a Fugitive Forester begins training they work to achieve the level of Expert. Once you are an Expert your training is complete. If you wish to further your training, you must seek the advanced. The advanced is not training from another human. Instead, it is everything natural. It is the bare elements and the person’s soul combined. You must find the pure energy inside yourself and combine it with nature to find the advanced. Only once you have found the advanced can you take on the title of Superior. Some Superior’s were able to harness the elements during their search and they can now use them to their advantage. These select few are called Mage Superiors.
In this desolate time there is said to be one person who can save this world from destruction in war. They call him the Messiah. He has knowledge of the past, present, and future. The Messiah can unleash unimaginable powers to rid this world of evil so the pure remain.
The Fugitive Foresters just recently saved another life. A young soul who is destined for success. A young soul who will claim the title of the Messiah.
This is where our story begins . . .

The events of Chapter One

Mega summary here XD, I'm trying to make it as short as possible. Rosette, a hard-headed teen, is rescued by the Fugative Foresters and is suspected to be the Messiah. Blaise, a Mage Superior, was instructed to be her trainer. Rosette was seemingly upset that she was rescued and not her friend Chrono as well. We soon find out that the two of them have an odd connection -- whatever injury one sustanes the other will take on as well. The Foresters save Chrono and the next day Blaise is to start training Rosette. Trouble stirs in the forest as it is discovered that there is a spy among them that had ruined plans and killed one of their best. Kaden, Blaise's best friend, gives this news to her and Rosette. Soon this spy is killed and the Foresters expect things to begin running smoothly again. They don't. A village near the forest is overun by Dragon slayers, the force employed by the Monarchy (or Empier, either one) to stop the Foresters. Their plan is to lure the Foresters into a trap and destroy them. The Foresters had forseen the trap and reluctantly didn't go to save the village from certain destruction. The village was burned to the ground and new plans were made.

Mistress Blood, the first heir to the throne of the Empire, wants the Foresters destroyed as does Lord Algren, the cheif commander of the Dragon Slayers. The relationship between Blood and Algren is a unique one. Algren is the only man able to give to Blood offspring and Blood is the only person that stands in the way of Algren taking the throne. Algren plans to kill Blood and take the throne himself; but he must do this in a devious way so as to kill Blood and the Foresters all at once -- two birds with one stone. The Forseters made an agreement with The Dragon Slayers that if the Foresters were to kill off Blood's troops then the Dragon Slayers would retreat and come back for battle another time. The Dragon Slayers planned treachery that would go against this agreement so that after Blood was killed the Dragon Slayers would launch an attack on the unsuspecting Forseters and finish off their forces; that's where they would be killing two birds with one stone. The Foresters expected this deciet and planned for it.

They called in some of their closest allies, the Eaveshire elves. The plan was to be: as the Foresters fought Blood's troops Blaise, Rosette, Chrono, and Eitan (of the Eaveshires) were to go to a neaby lake and begin doubling its size and ammount of water. After the Dragon Slayers launch their attack on the Foresters, the Foresters were to push the enemy back to the lake where Blaise and Eitan could use their elemental ability to controll water to drown the opposing force. After these palns were decided the Foresters set out and battle began. Defeating Blood was the only challenge and she was eventually killed by Algren himself. Blaise and the others had already reached the lake by the time Blood was killed and the Foresters began fighting off the Dragon Slayers. There is one dillema at the lake. Joshua, Rosette's younger brother, had joined the Dragon Slayers re-dubing himself Jacob. Jacob's purpose for joining the enemy was because he wanted the death of the Messiah. He knew not that this was his own sister.

Kaden ended up bringing a smaller troop of Foresters and Eaveshire in order to help Blaise. Blaise and Eitan began their work on the lake as Kaden's troop kept Jacob at bay. Jacob ended up killing Eitan, putting all of the strain of the lake task on Blaise. Chrono gets in a tangle with Jacob as Jacob tries to kill Blaise in order to stop the plan. In the midst of this, Kaden is killed. Blaise attempts to kill Jacob for this but even Chrono stops her. She begins to realize Chrono is not himself. Blaise lifts all the water in the lake as Algren's troops get nearer and she elvelops the troops in the water. Nearly all of the Dragon Slayers drown in this attack.

Chrono and Jacob are still going at it, each one becoming -- quite litterally -- more demonic as the fight continues. With one brutal attack Jacob wipes out a large number of people and a good portion of the forest. Rosette tries to get her brother back but it only makes things worse and Jacob ends up killing Chrono. Jacob moves to Blaise, asking who the Messiah is so he could kill them. Blaise lies and says that it was here in order to save Rosette. Rosette interferes to save Blaise and ends up with a sword through her abdomen. Blaise, weak and tired, tries to fight back but passes out. Rosette soon finds that the blood flowing from her body is bringing life back to the soil. A strange thing happens and a shockwave of light spans out from her, healing everyone and bringing all that are dead back to life. Everyone along with Kaden and Chrono are back to life and fine -- except for Rosette.

Rosette sustanes her fatal wound. Chrono, in his anger for Rosette dying, goes back after Jacob. Chrono grows in size and ferocity revealing his true form. Chrono is a demon. Meanwhile Kaden and Eitan take Blaise and Rosette somewhere else where they will be safe. Eitan treat's Rosette's wound but she still seems to be getting worse. The battle between Chrono and Jacob has taken to the sky and is growing in ferocity. Kaden tells Eitan of Rosette and Chrono's connection -- that Rosette was feeling Chrono's battle. Eitan attempts to break the bond but is stopped by Rosette.

The battle between Chrono and Jacob has now fallen back to the ground and Chrono is about to finish Jacob off once and for all. Kaden gives the order that all Foresters and Eaveshire are to move back into the forest, claiming victory -- their forces were the stronger. All move from the battle between the two and Kaden and Eitan watch. Chrono makes his last mark but is stopped by a curious ghostly form of Rosette. Chrono shrinks back to size and Jacob stabs him near the heart before dissapearing. Kaden runs to Chrono to try and save him but he doesn't know how. Eitan can't help him and Blaise is still unconscious.

(If you really want to know what happens with this one you'll have to find it and read it, it's hard to explain) Kaden finds out that he is a healer and heals Chrono. Everyone lives, yay. Eitan and Kaden take Blaise, Chrono, and Rosette back to the Forester post in the forest where it is announced that they must stay somewhere else for fear of being attacked again. The Eaveshire will be their home until further notice and they move out for this destination. End chapter one.

If you really want the whole entire detailed awsome story then you're going to have to read it. It really is an awsome story. There are quite a few details left out of this summary for length's sake. To find out what they are please read!

___________________________________________________________

Rules: Of course, follow the basic rules of the guild and we won’t have a problem. If I find someone has done something that I really don’t like more than once and after a warning then I will start making extra rules! Please don’t make me do this…
To the Messiah and the M.S. (mage superiors) ABSOLUTELY NO GOD-MODDING!...Sorry but I hate it.
_____________________________________________________________

Note: Make sure you notify me or someone who will tell me if you are going to have a long absence.

In the storyline above I said that there is a SELECT few of Mage Superiors so I will only allow a couple people to be Mage Superiors (maybe five or six. It really depends on how many people want to be in this RP, there could be more M.S.). First come first serve.

There can only be one Messiah. Once again, first come first serve. I also said in the storyline above that the Messiah was a YOUNG soul so he OR she can be no older than 17.

I will start the RP as soon as we get enough characters to get a good story going. Already started... I was too bored and had nothing to do xp

Character board

Username: Je suis a toi
Name: Blaise
Age: 15
Sex: Female
Rank: Mage Superior
Appearance: Blaise has long blonde hair and very fair, pale skin. She has a strong, thin physique and is very flexible and agile. She has stunning green eyes and the mentality of a true warrior.
Preferred weapon: she is incredible in the category of man-to-man fist fighting and her ability to harness the elements makes her all the more powerful. When in weapon combat her favorite weapon is her Beachwood stave. Her favorite sharp weapon is a light, sturdy sword and her boot knives. When out of range for man-to-man she is an incredible marksman and can use any long range weapons from a bow and quiver to a long javelin.
Attitude: Blaise is a fun-loving creature and finds that sparring is her most favorite pastime. She does not like to show sadness or weakness and is very good at hiding both. Her anger can be dangerous if she is provoked but her love is more powerful than anything. She has a laid back personality and won’t snap back unless called for.
History: Blaise was rescued when she was twelve-years-old. Her life was a living hell before then. She had been imprisoned twice for tripping and falling on the streets, but otherwise she spent most of her time working in the households of one of the Lords of the land, gaining a very low salary to help support her family. When she was nine they made her watch as they brutally slaughtered her parents then made her sell the clothes off of the corpses. If they had caught her crying she would have fallen to the same fate. Blaise then had to start working more in order to support her four-year-old sister. She started stealing on occasion to help with the food and money issues and she got very good at it. Then, one year later when she was just ten and her little sister five, they took her from Blaise and sold her into slavery. She began stealing more and more clinging to the thought that if she had enough she could buy her sister back. One day a family of four caught Blaise stealing but didn’t turn her in. instead she would give them her earnings in return for clothes, food, and a place to stay. Blaise took on a second job so the mother of the family would teach her how to read and write in secret. Then foreigners declared war and she was drafted into a battle corps and was sent to war. Blaise was then caught writing a letter to the family and sentenced to death. The Fugitive Foresters saved her life and she became one of them, advancing to the level of Mage Superior.


Username: Je suis a toi
Name: Kaden
Age: 17
Sex: Male
Rank: Superior
Appearance: Kaden has bright green eyes and slightly curly brown hair. He has a medium build and stands at about five feet eight.
Preferred weapon: He’s a good swordsman and he’s strongest in swordplay. He has decent aim and can hit the target dead on nine times out of ten.
Attitude: Kaden is a kind and loving person. He’s protective of his friends and will always fight for what’s right. He has a strong sense of compassion and guilt so he is very honest.
History: Kaden doesn’t remember much about his past, he was rescued when he was three. He became a very successful fighter and made Superior when he was about sixteen after he met and trained Blaise. He seemed quite attached to her after that and now they are the greatest of friends.

Near the end of the first chapter Kaden discovered something very important about himself. The healing touch ran in his family and he is a powerful healer. While he is not skilled with this ability yet he will soon learn how to use it.

Username: Je suis a toi
Name: Soto
Age: Unknown
Race: Nix // Nix are water creatures usually shown in human form. A Nix is usually a male water spirit who plays enchanted songs on the violin. These songs only affect other people, or the person intended, and not for the nix himself (can’t be used for self gain kind of thing). The enchantments can range from luring a person somewhere to making them fall asleep. Nix are said to grow despondent if they do not have free, regular contact with a water source. They are of the shape shifting kind and can appear as they wish. They have special talents with water and wield a certain kind of magic with it; they can even make a solid thing turn into water then make it take its original form when they wish.
Appearance: Soto is very tall, about 6’ 7”, and his body fits his height; handsomely so. He is not a strong person and does not need to be though his muscles have tone. His ebony hair pulls up into a spike and his eyes stand between a deep purple and a light blue in the strangest way. He wears simple clothing and carries no weapons, only a traveler’s pack filled with various vials and flasks of water.
Personality: Soto is cunning and devious, a bit of a romantic even. He is neither good nor evil, just floats in between. He’s become a perfect shape-shifter and has even perfected the transformation into a Drac (a creature invisible to almost all beings), a nearly impossible task. He can be sly and wicked at times, and treat you with a cruel kindness at others. You can never really tell what’s on his mind and he can remain infuriatingly calm all the time, but has a dangerous anger.
History: Lives by a lake, does what he wants, end of story.

~*~

Username: Cheshire Cam
Name: Nerull Ong
Age: Unknown. Speculated at 23-72
Rank: Mage Superior
Appearance: Tall, skeletally thin. Keeps his entire body covered at all times by a loose fitting material, similar to a grave wrap. Underneath, his skin is blackened and thick, clinging close to his bones. His palms are shrunk, leaving crule claws as fingers. His cheeks have been ravaged by some strange disease, leaving them rotted through.
Preferred Weapon: His entire body, and a special Nine-Ring Bo Staff
Attitude/Common actions or habits: He is very distant from others, resenting their fear and distaste of him. He did not cause any part of his grusome appearence, and hides it except for intimidation purposes. If you earn his trust and prove you accept him, Nerull will treat you with awe and respect, and a feirce sense of loyalty.
He constantly rakes his scarily long fingers against rough objects, apparently sharpening them.
History: Deep and dark. He was once a high-ranking government official, head of his department, and a fearsome fighter in his own regard. One day, he was struck down by an unknown sickness, crippling him and eating at his nervous system from the inside out. No cure was found, and he faded rapidly: his skin lacking oxygen and nutrition turned black and shrivled, his palms shrunk to his wrists, his cheeks rotted through, he lost the ability to function at all.
The day his final connection was severed, all nerves shut off, he flatlined. Moments later, he sat up straight in his bed, looked around, and dashed off. Very few sightings of him have been confirmed, and even then he was seen at high speeds on mysterious tasks. The only confirmed information is that he seems to have lost all feeling, sense of smell, taste, and has limited hearing.

Username: Cheshire Cam
Name: James Rikken
Age: 30
Rank: Expert - Demons[Elimination]
Appearance: Tall and slightly stocky, a man built for stamina. His hair is beginning to prematurly grey from stress, but it's still long and thick. He has a Generals beard that he's very proud of and quite neat. His chest is thick and dark with spindly tatoos, some commemorating victories, some with arcane meaning.
Preferred Weapon: A special set of punching daggers with blunted tips and extended blades. Leathal for slashing, but able to deliver a stunning blow. They've been sided with silver for more potency against unnatural forces.
Attitude/Common Actions or Habits: James constantly hums, whistles, or thinks some tune or beat in his head. He even uses some of the more complicated beats as step patterns for fighting.
History: James used to work for the Milita until he had a close family freind executed before him. He too a few personal days to collect himself, and never reported for duty again. Authorities surmise that he spent the days packing his few personal belongings on fleeing.
Since his escape into the forest, he has become a known authority on tracking and caturing using non-leathal methods. He's also become a good freind with the local mystery, Nerull. They crossed paths a few times in the forest while hunting or on various missions, and they exchanged information and such until a freindship formed. Now they meet every month to discuss new developments in their assigned sectors.
James is an accomplished Demon tracker. He uses natural purities in the enviroment to determine where a disturbance was, how long ago, and how large. Nerull actually introduced him to the technique. His favorite teaching is 'Do not look for something that is there. Look for what isn't.'


~*~

Username: Hoidtoid
Name: Flint
Age: 26
Race: Elf
Gender: Male
Rank: Major
Appearance: Flint stands 6'7" towering over most humans and elves alike. He is lean and muscular, and has abnormally dark skin for an elf. He has long red hair and his eyes are dark brown in the center and a dark green around the outside.
Preferred Weapon: He is a expert Archer and hardly ever misses his target when using his long bow. He is also trained to use a sword though he prefers to use his bow.
Attitude/Common actions or habits: He likes to talk and is very kindhearted and outgoing. He is extremly loyal and will carry out orders from his superiors with out question. He would also give his life for any that are his responsibility and dying in duty would be the most honorable way for him to die in his own eyes.


~*~


Username: Hinge 1

Name: Algren Midvalley

Age: 19

Rank: A Sergeant of Dragon Slayers

Appearance: Algren is tall and thin, with sunken cheekbones and tired looking eyes that twinkle with a silver blue from behind the locks of flaming red hair that tumble down in a tattered mess from his head. His thin lips are pressed tightly on his angular chin. He dresses in a black, leather uniform that clings tightly to his torso while a belt of brown material holds up a pair of tattered, baggy brown paints. On his shoulders is a cape of flowing blue of a nightmare hue that twists madly in breezes. His hands are bound in gloves and often clench his silver spear.

Preferred Weapon: His silver spear, Night Screecher. He also knows one type of magic, if that is what is can be called, that constantly buffers him in black flames of neither that negates all magic the flames can consume to feed their hungry tongues.

Attitude/Common actions or habits: Algren is a deliberative and calculating individual. He is calm and collect and harsh as the winter storm. He shows no mercy to either his allies or his foes. He trains his troops to the utmost degree and rewards them greatly when they obey his command, and punishes greater when they disobey. Can often be seen rubbing his chin with a hand, often for no reason save it is a habit.

History: Ever since he was old enough to wield the spear and use a strategy board, he was being tutored in the ways of war. He is the fourth son of the Tactician Sundial Midvalley and as such, was mostly ignored by his father, who was busy tutoring his eldest son. However, Algren’s cousin taught the boy and Algren began to show his potential. At the age of fourteen he was admitted into the Order of the Dragon Slayers, the monarchs assassin corps. and quickly distinguished himself from his peers as their better and at eighteen he was given the rank of Sergeant and command of a single detachment of assassins. He has proven countless times a thorn in the Foresters plans and has killed many though his carrier, a tradition he plans to continue for a long time.
