Twice in the history of Endiness were the legendary Dragoon called upon to liberate the free spirits of Endiness. The Dragon Campaign, the deadly and violent rebellion against the Winglies, created the powerful warriors, capable of commanding Dragons. The success of that war provided liberation for the previously subservient human race. The second time proved to be an unprecedented arrival of the second Dragoons. This resulted in the death of the fabled Melbu Frahma. Several years passed, generation upon generation grew, and the Legend of the Dragoon once again became just that. The lives of Dart Feld, King Albert, former Dragoon Rose, the last Giganto Kongol, the human loving Winglie Meru, martial arts master Haschel, and the sacred sister Miranda had faded into memory. Peace once again reigned and people forgot the meaning in such memories and they were transformed into stories. Things to appease the curious child in order to make him fall into sleep. However, no matter how often the times change, the golden rule remains: History repeats itself...

The kingdom of Serdio stayed noble, and it stayed true. The bloodline that followed king Albert proved to be as fair as he, and the power and peace established provided the greatest morale that the continent had ever seen. Soon, however, the ubiquitous destroyer and builder of nations, the double edged sword that both united people and bred animosity, rode in on its red horse with its weapon at the ready: War was brought to Serdio's doorstep. A race of legendary warriors arose out of the seas and charged with unstoppable power throughout Endiness. The creatures, Umbarru as they were called, were older than the Dragon Campaign. By the time of the Dragon Campaign, there were none that could believe that the antagonists of Winglie nightmares were more than legend. It was now, at this time of war, that the Umbarru were proven to be real. The Death Frontier was instantly established as their base of war, and as war spreads to all countries in the continent oblivion is on the horizon. Something ominous is happening behind the scenes, and while there are no plans to locate and use the Dragoon spirits (in fact it is only on the minds of children), fate has a way of bringing forth the weapons needed for success...

Ok peoples, thats the setting. Now, like in the games, the dragoons are by no means the only important characters. I will post up a list of famous figures in the rp and a character sheet. I will be mildly gming this rp, controlling these key NPCs. Other than that, its fairly freeform.

As far as the Dragoon spirits go, the chances of there being a powerful dragoon (as in a trained one) is zero. Now, you can start out with a dragoon spirit, but even the knowledge of what it is will be highly unlikely. Even if you start out with a dragoon spirit, you cannot turn into a dragoon yet.

Also, you don't have to start out with a dragoon spirit to become one. In fact, if you want to obtain the spirit at some time other than the beginning, I will be ecstatic to work out that in the storyline in a way that it will surprise and entertain all members of the rp. And off we go!

-----Character Sheet-----
Name:
Age:
Race: (Available races are Human, Winglie, Giganto, and Umbarra. If you are the last, you cannot become a Dragoon. I'll give a description of the various races if need be)
Skills: (note: it is very, very rare for humans or Giganto to use magic)
Dragoon Spirit: (note: if you don't start out with one, you can still post the spirit you'd like to reserve it. If you don't have one, instead of putting Dragoon Spirit, just put Element.)
Personality:
Bio:

Now thats about it for the character sheet. I'll post the main npcs later. Ok, to play this rp its pretty much necessary to have played the game and have relative knowledge of it. So, with that said, you should know the basic qualities of the races (except for Umbarra which I invented).

The Dragoon Spirits, name wise, I don't really remember, but all that matters about them is the element they support. Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Light, Dark, and Thunder are available. I'm pretty sure that the Dark Element is already reserved, and so is the Earth element. This is open for discussion. Post interest, or you can go ahead and post character sheet. Enjoy.

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM SO IN!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!
Name: Kai Regelates
Age:17
Race: Human
Skills: Intermidiate swordsmanship, Intermidiate Dual Wielding
Blacksmithing, Tailoring, Minor Herblism, and very good Cooking skills, and if needed to be said social.
Personality: loud at times, a bit Bi-polar.
Appearence:

Lmao. Good, I'm glad I got some interest lol.
Ok, though I have one qualm with your sheet. The skills, first explain those. I'm not necessarily looking for powers or whatnot, but skills that aren't dragoon related. Such as, is the person a good swordsman, are they good with their words, etc. Also, as just a reminder since your bio isn't up yet, the characters cannot turn into Dragoons yet, though they can have the dragoon spirit.

KK not a prob, ill edit.

Thank you. Other than that its fine, and I look forward to this rp playing out. There's a girl I've pmed who's gonna join (she's reserved the Dark Dragoon Spirit) and I'm going to post my human/giganto hybrid.

Oh, and btw, if you want to put a character photo for appearance feel free.

Nah I wont use a photo, btw its edited.

Kk.
I don't get the Level thing though on the Claymore. There aren't "moves" in the rp, if you know what I mean. Its not like a d20 or anything.
The rest of it is fine though, That still doesn't really cover the skills imo. I'm talking more about talents, what they're good at, e.g, blacksmithing, swordsmanship, alchemy, persuasion, etc.

KK man I hope this catches on.

Name: Marcus
Age: 25
Race: Human

Skills: Lock picking, escape artist, athletic, climbing and procuring rare items. To put it bluntly, Marcus is a thief. He is an expert (of his own style) with a bow staff.

Element: Thunder

Personality: He’s an easy going fellow that is incredibly brave (or incredibly stupid) when it comes to towering heights, obstacles and traps. He doesn’t like to fight but will if he has to. He does not have it in him to kill and he becomes nauseous and sometimes faints at the sight of blood. Has a fear of beautiful women.

Bio: A proud day it was when Marcus was born. The Pirates of The Broken Islands were overjoyed to see that the wench of their noble Captain Jack had given him an heir. Surely he would be a great pirate, as great as his father or even greater. At an early age he displayed the fearlessness of a true man of the sea. He would scamper up the riggings with out a care in the world. He was quite the dare devil as well, swinging from ropes and using poles as vaults. When he came of age he was given a ship of his own. A proud day indeed.

On its maiden voyage the ship was run aground on southwest Sandora. The incident was mainly the fault of the ale stricken Marcus. He has sense given it up. The crew eventually returned but Marcus stayed behind ashamed of his actions. Feeling his father would be disappointed in him, he set out to prove his worth.

Seven years have passed since that fateful day. Marcus has long forgotten his original quest and makes a living out being a thief/treasure hunter with his partner in crime.
His partner in crime is a horse named Lightning.

Sweet welcome to da club ^^

@ Exo-Genises, thats exactly what I meant. The profile is now a-ok lol.
@ Dalmar, I got your profile and it works great. I'm actually about to post mine now.

So, we have the Earth, Fire, and Thunder dragoon spirits in play, and the Dark one is reserved for a person who actually told me I should make this rp. I have a friend of mine I'm going to ask to join. So right now, the Water, Light, and Air Dragoon spirits are up for grabs. If you guys know any good literate rpers that know the game, then send them a pm and ask them for joinage. Thats right. I just made up a word.

Name: Baratta Grong
Age: Appears in his early thirties. (not sure of the Giganto Lifespan)
Race: Giganto/Human
Weapon: Two custom made swords (see pic)
Dragon Spirit: Golden Dragon (Earth)
Bio: Grong's life as a Giganto/Human hybrid was a rare one. He is, essentially, the only one of his kind. His mother was a crippled midwife, a penalty from his father's girth, who told him stories of his ever absent father. Having never met him, Grong had to rely strictly on his mother's description of his father.

Ridicule was ubiquitous in his life for a short period of time. His size, roughly two heads taller than a human, was once made fun of. However those who insulted the giant of a man soon found themselves dismembered and deceased. Once his violent manner was tapped into, the giganto/human hybrid relied on his power much moreso than his words. After achieving an outlaw status in his native village, Grong set out with naught but a family heirloom, (an odd golden amulet that once belonged to his grandfather) on a mission of revenge. Whom he was going to exact revenge on was a mystery to all but himself.
Personality: Isolated, very violent. Has a very short temper.
Skills: Duel wielding, light and medium armoring, blacksmithing, hand to hand combat, hunting.

Alright my profile is up. I look forward to RPing with you guys.

KK mines is toom, this should be fun! ^^.

Yes it should.

Hmm...

I was planning on already having this started by now. I will be back soon! Must do recruiting, lol.

Name: Akana
Age: about 16
race: Winglie
Weapon: black magic
Dragon spirit: unaquired (Blue Sea Dragoon )
Bio: She was born to a poor family but her village was destroyed. She since has been on the road searching for the ledgendary Dragoons. Those she was only 8 when she left home she has servived with the help of her powerful black magic bloodline. She never has given up hope as she searched and now it should pay off.
Itmes with you: a pheniox down, and 4 potions

Ah! It appears that the Dark Spirit is up for grabs.

Spirits left: Dark, Wind, Light

@ Mina, you'll have to edit your profile to match the character sheet. And while its not necessary, expounding on your bio would help with character depth. Also, some form of melee weapon is necessary, because using magic drains energy/power fairly quickly.

I can take on the Dark Dragoon Spirit but it's magic has to change.(thinks about Rose's attacks and shudders) Do I have the freedom to change it? Actually scratch that they can still be the same just done differently. Does it matter what gender the Dragoon is?

No, the gender does not matter. Now, the actual attacks in the game (death dimension, etc.) are made for game entertainment. In the rp, the magic more consists of simply controlling that element when in dragoon form. The more complex thing you do takes more spirit energy, like the moves for instance: instead of Rose just shrouding the area in darkness or causing scary images (I put that with darkness) which she could do all day long, she used these awesome attacks that drained her spirit energy. Thats my point, simply controlling the elements doesn't take up a lot of, if any, spirit energy, but using the elements to pull off special attacks or to actually conjure that element (i.e, fire dragoon causing fire to spring up when at sea) drains the dragoon's spirit energy quicker.

Cool. Power works like another RP of mine that might find it's way here. Anyway I'll have a profile up Monday. Busy Weekends.
