Thanks to RaveRunner for naming the countries!

In the vast recesses of space, farther out into the universe than any mere mortal could ever imagine, resides the planet Nasuru. It is a planet much like Earth, filled with oceans and vast continents. Humans live there in harmony with a creature most Earthlings have always considered evil. Demons... Although, of course, there are evils and goods in every race, the people of Nasuru live with the demons in peace. Under the watchful eye of the demon gods and goddesses, everything in the living realm was peaceful and lovely. There were not even wars, as the gods and goddesses themselves lived together in harmony. All watched over their own continent, taking prayers, and helping those who deserve it.

However, as with most, there is always eventually a being of evil. In this story that being is the God named Ravin, Master of the Iilumian country. Secretly he plotted an attempt to overthrow the other gods, so he could reign supreme, as the only god in existence. However, with every villain, there is always a hero. This hero was the Goddess Selena, Master of the Napthia country. She learned of Ravin’s scheme, and stood against him.

The two fought a battle that shook the very heavens, along with the lands beneath. Until, after several days, the other Gods and Goddesses finally intervened They stopped the fight, and, as punishment for such acts, banished the both of them form the heavens. Napthia, having fought for a good cause, was angered by this, and tried to argue. However, she was still sent down to Nasuru, as a human. She would need to live out a life fo a normal human for one year. For one year she was shielded from her powers as a goddess,.

Ravin, upon reaching the land, vowed to one day return to his place of power, and overthrow the weaklings who called themselves Gods. He has gone into hiding planning his return.... Meanwhile, Napthia wanders her country in sorrow for her banishment, eagerly awaiting her chance to return.
------------------------------------

The rp takes place just a few weeks after the banishment. Players can choose to be either good, or evil. There is no definite outcome, so evil could quite possible win, and Ravin could overthrown the gods. Ravin currently has a cult of assassins, containing both demons and humans. If you choose to be evil you will be a part of that. Good guys, who side with Napthia will be either human or demon, and have no definite cult or anything to be part of. They could be a Merc. for all I care >_<

Basic Information

Name:
Aaron

Alias:
Aaron

Age:
Looks to be in early twenties.

Sex:
Male

Race:
Human Nasuru

Class:
Weapon master

Blood Type:
AB+

Condition:
Healthy

Alignment:
Good

Innate Element:
none

Advanced Information Foreground

Appearance:
Aaron could easily be considered an attractive person, with short cropped, dark colored hair, and eyes of misty grey. He has an attractive tan to go with a well featured face. His upper body is one of well defined and sculpted muscle, as he is considered to have a medium build; while his legs, including his calf muscles, are also rather powerful.

As for clothes, Aaron generally wears black or white shirts, usually tight fitting to accentuate his rather attractive upper body. Depending on the color of shirt he wears, his pants will usually match it, while also being more loose about his legs. At his waist, he wears a belt of silken cloth, normally dark violet or a vivid red in color.

The ornately decorated hilt of his sword, which matches the decorated case across his back, protrudes up over his right shoulder, placed at a perfect angel to reach easily and quickly. His twin swing blades, with onyx black handles, reside in a special kind of sheath built into his shirt on his back. His final weapon, the chain knife, is tucked into his belt behind his back, and appears to perhaps be the most common looking of his weapons.

Weapons:
Aaron’s main weapon is a double-edged long sword, light weight for one handed use. It resides in a sheath of onyx black upon his back with the hilt protruding up over his right shoulder. The sheath itself, along with the sword hilt, has etchings of gold and silver snaking all up and down its entire surface to create a vivid pattern. This pattern is spelled, and seemed to glitter and shimmer as if the sun were constantly reflecting off it. However, when the blade as drawn, and the pattern broken, it becomes dim, its glimmer fading until the sword is replaced. The blade of this sword, is shimmering silver in color, forged form the strongest steel of Nasuru

What would be considered his secondary weapon, is the chain knife which is tucked into a sheath built into the belt at his back. While the handle is onyx black and the blade crafted of the same alloy as his sword, it has the appearance of a perfectly simple knife. However, as the decorations on the sheath and hilt of his sword, this knife is also enchanted to lung form the handle at his bidding. The chain with which it will be fastened to, is an indestructible, forged from magic, and will grow as long as Aaron wishes it to. The entire movement of the chain, and the knife blade at its end, is controlled by Aaron’s thoughts. It can move, through the air anyway he wishes it to.

Aaron’s third and final set of weapons are twin swing blades which reside in a special sheath on his back which appears to be built into his shirt, however, the sheath is a form of magic, and is not truly there. While it holds the blades, which are made fo a special kind of alloy most believe to have been gone from Nasuru long ago, any other kind of steel would pass through it. The curved blades that make up these weapons are actually double-edged, leaving only the inside part of the blade directly in front of his hands dull, as he would not wish to accidentally cut himself.

Armor:
None

User Skills:
Weaponry, martial arts.

Advanced Skills:
Swordsmanship, Melee.

Techniques: (still working on these >_<)

Sword:
Destringere Ferire:

Translated: “Unsheathing Strike”
This move is, as the name implies, used as a means to unsheathe his sword. However, it can be used whether or not the sword is already in hand. If it is sheathed, the technique will begin with Aaron dodging a couple of his opponents attacks, moving fluidly around them whether they be vertical or horizontal, or even diagonal. After the dodging of the second strike, Aaron will spin around him, his own blade finally coming forth to knock his opponents toward the ground. To finish the move, Aaron will bring his elbow up into the opponents face.

If his sword is already unsheathed, it will look the same, apart from that fact that instead of his hand reaching up and clutching the hilt of his sword, it is down, the sword already in hand.

Chain Knife:
Rotare et Versare

Translated: Whirl and Twirl
This is a technique only accessible when the knife blade has been launched from its handle. It is a technique used only by highly skilled users of a chain weapon as it involves not only fast twirling of the blade itself, but the user must also be in constant motion. As the knife is sent spinning around his body, Aaron can take out various enemies while also flipping and kicking them as well. It is truly a devastating move, when used in the capable hands, and can be quite unstoppable.

Swing Blades:
Tractare Versare

Translated: Handle Spin
While most would consider a move like this to be impossible, as it involves the spinning of the handle in the palm of the wielders hand, the blade circling around the users forearms much like the Japanese Tonfa’s. Using this technique a master of this kind fo weapon could create some heavy damage, the blades spinning about home almost as if they were nunchaku’s. A martial artist could also add various kicks and spins to the attack.

User Magic:
None

Advanced Magic:
None

Advanced Information Background

Weapon Expertise:
Sword, though skilled with any kind of weapon.

Initial Weapon:
Sword

Dominant Hand:
Ambidextrous

Personality:
Aaron is a rather laid back character, always harboring a kind of cool aloofness about him. He tries his best to keep his cool in situations, especially in ones involving some stranger trying to anger him with insults. He sees it as not giving a person the satisfaction of knowing they got under his skin. He prefers to just remain calm, inheriting quite a bit of patience from his parents.

As mentioned in his history, he has a little bit of a weakness for ladies in distress and is sometimes caught up in playing the hero. He will almost always go out of his way to help or save a girl, especially if they are attractive. He has a gift for charm, and can quite easily win the hearts of most women, only to break those hearts as he continues on his journey’s. He believes that when he finds the right girl he will know it, and will end his wanderings.

As one who loves a challenge Aaron loves the thrill of combat with a skilled warrior, and will sometimes play with them tot est their abilities before finally finishing the fight. While with a sword he is able to perform tricks some would think impossible, he is also rather skilled with other weapons. A spear or quarter staff for example.

In combat Aaron is cool and collective. He moves with a deadly fluid grace that come only form experience well beyond his apparent years. He is most skilled with a sword, and never hesitates to make his strike when he sees his opening. One thing that might make fighting him difficult, is that while he uses the sword, he will also attack with other parts of himself. His elbow for example. Every move he makes is quick, and it all flows together perfectly.


History: Aaron was born into the country of Kinto, where his father and mother were both respectable people of the city in which they lived. Both were healers, and quite skilled in the art as well. Both were pacifists, and did not believe in violence. They often looked to find any way out of any kind of violence, and somehow always succeeded.

Naturally, they tried to pass their knowledge on to their only son, Aaron, who found it all quite boring. He could not find any interest in the art of healing others, and instead went to the practice of the sword, and martial arts. His parents did not like that there son was so much unlike them, and often shunned him for not following their ways. That did not stop him from continuing his practices, however. When he was old enough, he left his parents without a single glance back, and has not returned to them since.

Here's the goddess Selena. Played by me of course. XD

10346 years old

Demon Goddess banished to a human body

Gender:
Female

Class:
Swordmaster, Goddess

Alliance:
Good

Appearance:
Selena is one that would never be considered unattractive. Although she is not sued to a human form, she has one of spectacular beauty. A flawless face with elegant features, shoulder length ginger colored hair, and dazzling eyes of violet. She has a slender body with luscious curves. Her breasts are the perfect size for her body, as are every other things about her. Nose, ears, lips, you mention it, everything is in perfect proportion. She has the look of a kind of tomboy, with a slightly ripped, tight fitting shirt and a pair of tight fitting shorts with a slight rip down the left leg. Both give startling accentuation to the vivid body she has.

Personality:
While, as a Goddess, Selena was kind and generous. As a human, she has become more of a sad, depressed person. As a goddess she did not feel the feelings that humans are so at the mercy of. She is just beginning to experience what sadness, fear, and anger are. All in all, she has decided being a human sucks, as she has not yet experienced the feelings that make life so great. Love, would be a great example. She is rather testy, and can be quick to anger, depending on her current mood.

Weapons:
working on them >_<

Distinguishing Features:
The mark of th gods, a tattoo in the small of her back.

History:
Selena was the one of the other Gods and Goddesses with the nerve to stand against the evil plans of Ravin However, as a result she was banished to the land below, to live with the mortal humans and demons for an entire human year. That was mere weeks ago, and her mood has not changed much. She is sad, constantly trying to think as to how she will survive this entire year with nothing but the clothes on her back. She wanders her country Napthia endlessly, appearing to others as nothing more than a poor girl.

Fahorn
Age: 95
Race: Drow
-The drow, also referred to by some as "dark elves", are a largely chaotic evil sub-race of elves. Back in the days of pre-history, the drow lived in the Lands of Light alongside their fairer kindred, where they were known to the elves as the Ssri-Tel'Quessir. The dark elves, a term more properly applied to drow ancestors before their transformation and banishment, were drawn from venerating the Seldarine to the worship of dark powers such as Ghaunadaur, Vhaeraun, and Lolth.

Occupation: Ranger
Height: 5'11"
Weapons: A Falchion sheathed on back which is not used often. And concealed under his cloak is a hand-crossbow commonly carried by the drow that shoots tiny bolts that inflict a deadly muscle slowing poison on it's victim. A dagger in his brown, leather boot and two daggers sheathed on his right side, so when reached for one is grabbed backhand, and the other forehand.

Dagger Descriptions:
The Shadow Slayer:
Forged by the Sorceress Morgolien in the shape of an Orwenoch, a creature of the Underworld. When evil touched the blade, the spirit of the Orwenoch was called forth to do great battle upon the already defeated enemy. Length of knife is 14.5inch.

The Black Legion blade:
This is the blade of the Black Legion Soldiers. Evil servants of the Lord of Shadows, and bringer of darkness. Many of these blades were forged in the mines of Lokonia, each one wrought with a clawed guard and pommel. The length is 15.5inches.

Racial Abilities:

Spell-Like Abilities
Drows can cast each of the following as a spell-like ability: Dancing Lights, Darkness, and Faerie Firepon and Levitate.
Darkvision
Drow elves have Darkvision, 120 foot range.

Spell Resistance
Drow have an SR of 11, increased by +1 per character level.

Mind over Magic
Drows gain a +2 bonus to Will saves vs. spells and spell-like abilities.

Enhanced Senses
Drows gain a +2 racial bonus on Listen, Search, and Spot checks. If you merely pass within 5 feet of a secret or concealed door, you are entitled to a Secret Door check as if you were actively searching for one.

Light Blindness
Abrupt exposure to bright light blinds a drow for 1 round. In addition, drow suffer a -1 circumstance penalty to all attack rolls, saves, and checks while operating in bright light.

Fighting Style

Draa Velve
Only a few dark elves in each city practice the draa velve style because the natural ability needed for this style is very rare. The name means "two sword," and it involves an amazing balance of control between the two hands. Followers of this style fight with a weapon in each hand and use one of the weapons to parry as well as attack, which means the parrying weapon also acts much like a shield. Some dark elves without perfect balance in both hands study the basics of this style, hoping to eventually master it through intense training or magic.

Appearence
As a drow Fahorn's skin is very dark brown almost pure jet black. His hair is short and white. His eyes are an amber, and grow redder as his anger gets more intense. His clothes are bright white and greatly contrast his skin. The garments are basically street clothes except for the flame red pendent around his neck which allows him to withstand even the greatest heats. And around his shoulders is a thick white cloak, that is as light as feather even though it is as thick as a stone.

the exact things you want aren't there, but i think there is enough....i just copied it from the rp card thread...>.<

Name: Yama/Yami
Age: 1000+/18
Race: Fox Demon/human
Hair Color: Silver/red
Eye Color: Yellow/green
Gender: Male
Class: Assassin/Nature-Lover
Alliance: Evil / Good
Appearance: http://www.fortunecity.com/lavender/godfather/104/h_kurama62.jpg

and

http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:gbCGpLFN0aMJ:http ://www.absoluteanime.com/yu_yu_hakusho/shuichi.jpg

Personality: Somewhat intriguing, Yama is an interesting. Believed to be over a thousand years old, outliving many beings Yama is known for his destruction. Yama's personality is that of the ideal assassin. He is cold, creul, cunning and calculating. He can and will murder anyone without mercy or a second thought. He is also very cunning, leading his group of bandits to riches and glory. Being an intense strategist, he is usually two steps ahead of many of his opponents.


Yami's personality is almost the exact opposite. Yami is for the preservation of all life. He is very good natured, and will welcome anyone he meets. He is thankful of his connection to nature, not knowing that it is demonic. Yami once had a family, of whom suddenly died in the middle of the night, when Yama killed them.


Weapons: Yama and Yami's main arsenal relies on nature, despite his destructive habits. His main weapon is his large collection of roses. A main technique of his is to roses into various weapons, such as a whip or sword. He can also create hurricanes of petals and thorns.



Red Rose - Yama's main rose, he carries about ten of them upon him at a time. The red rose has no special properties or any negative effects upon using. It is most commonly used for transformation into many different weapons
Blue Rose - The Blue Roses were the creation of ancient druids. The blue rose, which served the same purpose as any other rose, had its own special properties. It could be used to help channel maana, the source of all magic, and to store mana and to efficiently use mana. The blue rose is most commonly invoked before Yama casts a spell or does any other magic related activity. Some spells unique to users of the blue rose are Mana Cyclone and Burst of Spirit.
Yellow Rose - The Yellow Rose, while like the red rose, is used mainly for weapon transformation, has an added benefit. When shaped into ranged weapons such as bows, the Yellow Rose can create arrow's and imbue them with special benefits like "Blizzard Shot" or "Nature's Stinger"
Green Rose - The supreme Druidic rose. The Green Rose, enhances the users attachment and connection to nature, therefore multiplying greatly the power of the druid using the ability. The bond created using the green rose, not only temporarily gives the user infinite spirit energy but also unleashs a whole new selection of druidic powers. The main drawback is that the Rose Siphons the user's sould, so one must have a handy collection of souls ready if one is to preserve onself.
Purple Rose - Also known as the Rose of Souls, the purple rose was used by ancient necromancers. The Rose has the ability to trap the souls of dead mortals inside itself. After significant sacrifice over many years, the rose also lends necromancy to the user.
White Rose - A symbol of Purity, the white rose represents all that is good and pure. It lends white magic from the user and can gather mana from those willing to lend it. The White Rose cannot be used by demons or undead as it will only wound them.
Black Rose - The Black Rose is pure evil. Created aeons ago, like the white rose the black rose lends power and evil unimaginable to the user. The only drawback of such power is that the user is soulbound to the rose and can never escape it. The Rose can only be used by demons with a sould of pure evil.
Void Rose - The Void Rose was made by the creators of the White and Black roses. It was meant as an ultimatium, as a way of peace if things got out of hand. The Rose, when triggered by some unknown triggers can possibly end the world.

Yama can also harness the incoherent power of plants and their seeds. The following are Yama's main plant's thoughhe may use other, more specialized minions.

Fighter Plant - The Fighter Plant, when planted grows at an alarming rate into a large vicious plant with equally balanced attributes.

Hunter Plant - At planting the Hunter Plant samples the target's Chi, locking onto it. After minutes of feeding off the target's chi, the Plant hunts it and tries to kill it.It has equally balanced attributes.




History:

Yama: Yama is said to be an ancient demon. He, in his youth created a bond with nature, which started as a mutual caring relationship, but eventually developed into a slavery issue.

Yama is the head of a group of famous bandits, the Angels of Hell, whom have never been caught. Known for his death and destruction, Yama is not a nice person to have as an enemy.

Since the exile, Yama's group was contacted by the fallen Demon God to kill his opponent. Ready to oblige at the promise of riches, the Angels of Hell hope to finish off the God himself after their contract expires.



Yami: Yami seemed to be a normal human boy on the outside, if not for the demon sharing his body. Yami used to live with his family, if not for Yama murdering them in Yami's youth. Since then Yami has become a wandering traveler, hoping to aid those who seek help, and trying to become a hero slaying the ledgendary demon, Yama.



A note on the Yama/Yami relationship: Once, when Yama was severly wounded, he fled and hid in the developing human child in the womb of his mother. Yama was at first dormant in Yami, know one knowing this.

Yama is also mainly in control of the body. Yami has no idea of the existance of Yama, but Yama knows about Yami and influences him Indirectly. Yama can also take control of Yami's body at will.

The two fought for several days, until the other gods put a stop on the fight. They banished both of them to Nasuru, to live life as a human for one year. Ravin tried to fight it, but to no avail. He was sent down and forced to be one of the creatures he had stepped on so many times. When he awoken, he found out he was without clothes, but nearby there was a fight going on. It was between two samurai fighting for honor..or something. Ravin watched the fight from afar, and when the fight was over, Ravin walked up to the dead fighter, stole his sword, and stabbed the winner in the back twice, killing him instantly. Ravin stole the mans armor and donned it himself. He kept the sword as well. He went into hiding, only coming out when nessesary.

Dante the Ripper


Name: Dante Real Name: Unknown Code Name: Ripper
Age: Unknown. Looks to be about 21
Race: Unknown. Appears to be human
Gender: Male
Class: Martial Artist/Swordsman
Alliance: Evil/Good
Hair color: Jet black. Just long enough to cover his eyes
Eye Color: One eye is dark brown, and the other is blood red
Facial Scar: On his right cheek is a huge scar that is basically a diagonal line from the bottom of his nose to his chin.
Clothing: Clad completely in black. He wears a long black leather jacket and his shirt has its sleeves rolled up with the the collar raised. The shirt is buttoned up except for the last button at the bottom of the shirt.Wears baggy black leather pants that are tucked inside his black boots.The right boot says F**K and the left one says YOU on the bottom, so if you get kicked by both feet, consider yourself F***ED.
Fighting Style: Unknown Martial Arts/Unknown Sword Arts
Weapons: Legendary Marasame Katana,The Bloody Claw, Gut Stabber & Throat Slitter(hidden blades) and Bastard's Nunchaku.

Personality: Usually calm and keeps to himself. He
basically just wants a good fight with plenty of blood and is definitely not the type of person you wanna piss off. A smart mouthed bastard with a bad attitude, he lives to fight.
He seems to act more on his emotions at the time, and it is hard to place a good or evil label on him. His personality is somewhat random, and he lives without any fears of death. His belief is that the only thing that can kill evil, is evil itself.

More on appearance: Standing at 5feet 9in. and weighing at about 145lbs, all of it being well toned muscle, so he appears to have a thin build. He is clad in black and always wears black. He walks around with his back hunched slightly, carrying the Marasame in his left hand. He would usually have his hands in his pants pocket, even when he carries his sword, so the blade would be held in between his left arm his ribs.

Dante has tan colored skin that is slightly pale and his jet black hair covers his eyes when he tilts his head. His eyes pierce through a persons soul, for he fears no opponent in battle, even if they are several times stronger than him. Dante's hair covers his right eye(the blood red one) only a bit, as his hair is swayed more to the right, revealing more of the brown eye. The scar on his right cheek is one of many scars on his body, and he has unbreakable barbed wire wrapped around his left arm, which he uses to block sword attacks(or any weapon) then counterattacks with a powerful punch or kick. It is unknown where most of these scars on his body came from.
More on weapons
Legendary Marasame: The legendary sword that once belonged to an invincible hero, Dante fought this man in mortal kombat and killed him with only his fists. This blade is capable of slicing through anything, but its strength depends on the one who wields it. It absorbs the years a person has lived+the number of years they have been the owner of the sword. When a being dies, the years the person has held it remain in the blade, and if the next wielder is capable of unleashing this hidden accumalation of power, they will inherit the most powerful sword techniques......from the Legendary Devil's Stance.(only those with demon blood can master this sword.)
Material: Forged from the claw of the Immortal Demon Balgemish.
Blade Length: 34in. Handle Length: 13in
Weight: 20.75lbs

The Bloody Claw: A weapon from an unknown world, this weapon strikes fear into the hearts of men. It constantly drips blood and the cuts from it make an enemy bleed to death. There is no way to heal from the wounds. Its other capabilities are unknown, but it is said that it can cause "time/space distortions". Dante himself never uses it, for one must give up their sanity to even put it on. One places their right hand inside of it, and it connects with ones evil aura. The more evil in your heart, the more it attaches to and put pressure on your hand and arm. It attaches to your arm, and if used for too long a period, it will permanantly become part of your body, thus, taking over your mind and entire body.( for right hand only.)
Material: Unknown steel and the blood of 1,000 female virgins.Blade Length: each finger blade is about 5 inches long. The thumb blade would be about 3 3/4in. long. Weight: 15lbs

Gut Stabber & Throat Slitter: Hidden blades that are kept inside the flesh in Dante's arms. He only uses these in extreme circumstances. They are used to quickly defend and end an enemies life. The Gut Stabber's blade is gray while the TS's blade is black. The handles are also black for both.
Materials: Dante's skin and flesh Blade Length: Both 29in. Handle Length: Both 11in.
Weight: Both 3.45lbs

Bastard's Nunchaku: A weapon used for speed in delivering punishing blows. It's basically two black handles conjoined by a chain in the middle. The hadles feel comfortable in the hands and hidden in the left handle is a short sword that must be brought out by a persons spirit energy. All you must do is imagine the blade cutting your opponent, and it'll do the rest. The same process is used to make the blade go back into its sheath. High spirit power and quick reflexes are needed to control this insane weapon.
Blade Length: 7in Blade Weight: None
Handle Length: 7in for both Chain Length: 4in.
Weight: 10lbs
Material: Dark Metal that makes it easy to use spirit energy. The chain is also made from DM.The blade is made out of pure energy, that only the strong can control.

Fighting Techniques: Dante prefers the bare handed fisticuffs over using weapons. He doesn't posses super strength, but when it comes to speed and power, he has no equal.

Unknown Martial Arts: Dante uses an unknown fighting art that uses the principle of intercepting an opponents attack, with an attack of ones own. In this art, you stand in an "unorthodoxed" stance that relies more on the right hand and foot. About 80% of the attacks are done by them. He attacks in an on-guard position, which is a semi-crouch stance that is perfect for fighting because it makes the body sturdy at all times and keeps it at a comfortably balanced position to attack, counter, or defend without forewarning movements. It provides the body with complete ease and relaxation but at the same time allows quick reaction time. From this stance movement is not jerky but smooth, and prepares your next movement without any restrictions. It creates an illusion or "poker body" to your opponent.....concealing your intended movements. Hardly any attack is direct. Practically all offensive maneuvers are indirect......performed after a feint or in the form of a counterattack.

Dante has the ability to put his emotions in his fist or feet, that honestly expresses himself, revealing who he truly is. He also possesses adaptability, which means he can adapt to his opponents and change with "change". He believes that one must follow their own path, and his beliefs combined with his inhuman fighting skills makes him a truly formidible enemy.

Like water, Dante flows from one strategy to the next, and then crashes upon his enemies like the waves of the sea.

Chaos Wave: The combination of intense hatred and intense love, this technique is capable of dealing critical damage to anyone in its path. Dante raises his right arm, placing his left hand on his right arm to brace himself for the attack(it is so powerful it knocks him several feel through the air.) and then focuses these emotions into his palm. creating an immense redish wave of chaotic spirit energy. The only drawback from using this move is that it drains him completely, for he can only use it once in any given day. However, as he trains and grows stronger, he will be able to use it more often and its destructive force will increase dramatically.

Chaos Missiles: As Dante becomes stronger, he realizes the chaos wave is much more flexible than he imagined. This technique is formed when he balls up his right fist and focuses energy into his closed right palm, and then punches his fist in the air vertically and unleashes several hundred blast that blow up on any solid object they come in contact with. They can follow an enemy until they are hit. No where near as powerful as the chaos wave, this move is best used when facing a large group of people, or a very agile opponent.(makes it hard to dodge.) TNLY

1 inch Punch: An immensely powerful straight-lead punch that only travels the distance of 1inch to reach its target. It can only be used at close range, but if it hits the enemy, it will blow a hole right through their flesh. TNLY

Sword Techniques:
Shadow Stance 1: This sword stance relies on a slightly higher degree of power than speed. The SS creates fake images that are used to confuse the enemy to make killing them that much easier. This stance is used for average opponents. All weapons can be used with this stance.

Shadow Stance 2: This stance relies more on speed than power, making it possible to slash a victim 20 times without them knowing they were cut. After images spawn from this stance that move to further distract the opponent. It can be used on fast, or slow enemies for an advantage in battle. The nunchaku and Marasame can be used together in this stance for some crazy action.

Shadow Stance 3: This stance is a one hit, one kill stance. A single sword strike with the Marasame that uses incredible speed and and power.

Mirror Stance: This stance blocks attacks and helps absorb damage. The damage the enemy throws at you combined with one's own, unleashes double the damage and double the impact.

False God Stance: A few steps below the legendary sword stance, this stance is capable of slashing 100 enemies in a single strike when using the Marasame. It allows the user to move at a speed that is so fast that you cannot tell what is happening. It also drains spirit energy unlike the Shadow Stance or Mirror Stance. TNLY

The Devil's Stance: This is the legendary sword stance that only those with demon blood can control. It gives the the possesser the ability to slay 1,000 enemies in a single strike. It also gives the user "speed beyond speed", movements that are so fast that the human eye cannot register it. Not even the demon gods have been able to master it....only the legendary devil Sinyu was able to master it and the skill to unlock the power only has passed down through his bloodline. It grants those with his blood the unlimited power of devils. But, how can Dante use it? Only time will tell. No human can master it.....if they tried, they would be killed by the power.
The Marasame sword is needed to use this stance. TNLY

Black Secret Techniques
Devil Transformation: Unknown source of power TNLY

Chains of Misery: A suicidal technique. It has the ability to kill every living being within a 500 meter radius, even the one who uses it. Thousands of chains rip through the flesh of the user and search for others to make them feel the pain of the user. Sharp meat hooks are connected to the end of each chain, that tear enemies to pieces. TNLY

Genecidal Cannon: Unknown source of power TNLY

7 Devils of Oblivion: Unknown summon TNLY

Brown Haired Woman with Huge Scalpel: ????????

Legend of the One Called Ripper
The ripper.....a title given to the man who kills his victims without hesitation and without mercy. Numerous corpses have come up with horrible grins cut into their faces, but they were mostly corrupt individuals, who only lived to satisfy their own greed. Many have claimed to be the Ripper, but in one major event in human history, where a powerful crime boss was brutally killed, more than 500 humans and demons claimed to be the killer. The man was called Abel Rehena, who was one of the most powerful, if not THE most powerful and wealthiest human beings in the world of Nasuru, was said to have dealings with the the Ripper. Something drastic must've happened in Abel's "gang" to have to call in this killer of killers. It is said that Dante only agreed to help so he could get closer to Abel, and eventually kill him. Abel was said to be aligned with the strongest fighters in all of Nasuru, so it must've been one hell of a battle for Dante. From that point on, Dante has been seen with a huge scar on his right cheek. He has even been reported dead in some battles, only to make an appearance in a future battle. In another report, it says that he can sometimes be seen with a women who carries a huge scalpel. No one really knows what he is truly like or what he is after, but he remains one of the most hated and feared figures in all of Nasuru.
They call him............Dante the Ripper.

Dante has heard of the battle between the demon gods and he searches for the goddess that fell from the heavens. But, will he slay her? Or help her destroy the evil Ravin? Dante lives without a purpose except for murder and bloodshed, so perhaps he feels that meeting her will give him one. The voice in his head beckons him onward, to find his reason for living.

Everything else about this man is unknown.

TNLY=Technique not learned yet. They will become available as the story progresses.

Alright I think I have a character now... surprisingly I never RPed a character like this before.

Name: Raniel
Age: 22
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Class: Weapons master
Alliance: "Good"
Hair color: Grey
Eyes: Green

Distinguishing features: He has a scar on his left hand, front and back, where his hand was stabbed completely through earlier in his life.

Clothing: Dark blue steel armor with blood red edges. His shoulder plates come somewhat upwards. He wears a black cape, and his steel mask covers only his mouth.

Fighting style: He is adept in most forms of weaponry, but masterful at horseback fighting and polearms.

Weapons: His favorite is the spear called Makkayari, also carries an unnamed single-handed longsword and katals.

Personality: He believes that with more demons, there will be a greater chance for turmoil. He is definately not the stereotypical kind of person you would find on the good team. He is merciless, cold-hearted, and destructive.

Makkayari: This spear is made with somewhat of a poisonous metal. When someone is cut by this, they bleed. Alot. The poison within it slows down blood clotting, which can make even a small wound lead to death by blood loss.

Steed: His steed's name is Tenya. Her hair is white, but Raniel dyed it black. She is an intelligent breed, and Raniel has trained her very well. She wears armor that is not heavy enough to slow her down.

And weighs about 195 pounds. Although being short, he can match a bigger man in power, and most likely out-match them in speed and quickness.

Personality: Calm and peaceful. Although this can change to almost anything. He can be a bit on the flirtatious side, he usually keeps it in control. He knows his mission and will be protective of the sacred one.

Weapons: He carries a simple katana in a mahogany sheathe at his side. But he would use his hands more often than his sword. He also has a dagger at his right side in a small sheathe,and one in a lower leg sheathe.

Mission: He was watching the fight between the gods, before any human knew about it. And now, he set off to the largest city of Grabacr, where Selena is. He can sense her presence...and he must find her...and protect her.

The whole shrine from, where he resided til of a week ago, sensed what was happening above with the gods. Now that he knows that Selena was forced out...she needed to be protected at all costs. He needed to find some others to help him protect her.

I'm going to bring this up again: We could do a live rp...via AIM or IRC, or EF Forum. Now...I think they should have them all randomly "meet" in the capitol city I so graciously made in my info. Uh...Anyone have any comments on what I said? About the LIVE RP, or where we meet?

cid
07-24-2005, 12:30 AM
yea but it doesn't take as much talent to do a live RP in an IRC and in the IRC everyone would start to go off track and shit around and stuff, of course that'd be me...

Then what the hell should we do? Why have the characters meet in one place? We should wait until they are all posted in the story and have progressed enough, then have some major battle where we all fight and some people can change sides. This won't be the final battle, but just a huge fight where we all make decisions on who to join. Either evil or good. I dunno.

You're too impatient. If EVERYONE agreed to RP in T2 format and EVERYONE was online at the same time, that would work. Swordsman, try to understand that people here have learned and are accustomed to a different way of RPing than you. I'm not saying anything is wrong with your method (although I would think that boldfacing all those different words gets ittitating.) but you should try to adapt as best as you can... to be honest, I (along with some others most likely) wouldn't have the reflexes to IM RP. You're doing fine as you are now, not much reason to change things.

Isn't it obvious? He's a mercenary therefore Neutral. He can be either good or bad. Hence his putting good/evil in the alliance spot.

On a side note, I never much cared for IM rp’s. Just because you can type fast does not mean you’re a good writer. Far from it actually.

i have a question, how often should we RP? should it be like every 4 or 5 posts or what? and another question, i haven't RPed for a while, but how would we go about RPing when we meet up with other people's characters?

Just noticed this question. lol sorry for the double post people.

Yeah 4 or 5 posts I'd say. give some people a chance to make their opening first though. As for the fighting when our character meet up. I have been meaning to explain this.

It will be duel style. The characters fight, and yes you can team up like two on one but no more than that. I don't know how u guys do it but I am used to fighting closed style, where you cannot say you hit your opponents. That is up for them to decide. Of course, no one can dodge everything so all must be fair or you can consider yourself dead.

I have asked The Diety to be a kind of judge for these matches that are actually serious. Character can and will die in this rp.

Of course, not all the fights are serious, therefore the Diety will not need to judge them in order to determine who gets the kill move and kills the loser. Yes only the victor gets the kill move.

If at anytime one of you seriously has a problem with one of the characters or something and wish to challenge them to a serious match to the death PM me and I will see if it can be worked out. After that its up to the both of you to decide how to work it into the story.

Also keep in mind that evil can kill evil. lol You guys could get pissed or something and turn on one another. Options are endless!!!!

Ok I think I covered everything... anymore questions just ask.

i don't mean fights, thats not hard to do, but say i would meet another evil person that i liked and chose to adventure with. how would we go about where we went next and stuff...

Hiren
07-24-2005, 07:53 PM
oh i see. well, evil people will naturally be followers of Ravin. They will either choose to follow whatever plan he has cooked up. Or just go there own way and carve their own path into the story.

that clear it up?

For the record, I tend to be very unbiased as well. And what you were saying about IM RPs is exactly what I was getting at... but to elaborate, I have a condition essentially preventing me from participating in such fast paced writing... something close to ADD.

About the post volume, I would say there should be no set limit to how much you can post. You should use your discresion if there are people that are not online at the time you are posting. And if someone directs a situation at you, feel free to respond regardless of when you last posted. My only request is that you don't post more than 2 - 4 times per day if there are others less active.

cid
07-24-2005, 11:29 PM
lol i would never have enough enough time to post 2 let alone 4 times a day, i might as well just write a book if i did that, maybe i'll post everyday or two.. and i ask would it be excepted if when two characters joined up, if we talked over IM or something and just had one person post an RP made up by the two people including both characters...

Yes If two rpers talk over IM about a convo between both of their characters, one of you can indeed post while modding the others character. In fact, as long as you have the person's permission, you can pretty much mod them however you want. Just mkae sure whatever it is you do is alright with the person who controls the character. Otherwise you are in trouble. lol
