Introduction
Welcome to the Kingdom of Pheliosta. Here we have moisture-devouring deserts, lung-freezing mountains, low-sweeping valleys, forests of all kinds, and much more. However, our only cities are located near our capitol city. And for a good reason. You know those land types I just mentioned? Those are inhabited by our strangest of citizens. Tribesman, clans, cults, and pretty much anything else you can think of. Also, it is normal to see a rabid, rampaging fire-breathing unicorn burn down a village in those general areas. That's what our paladins and mercenaries are paid to exterminate. The majority of our population are farmers though. Sorry, we have a population to feed. After all, guns, cars, and tanks have not yet been invented. If you want to kill someone, use a catapult. Flying boulders tend to straighten people out. Pheliosta is plagued by monsters of all kinds. Forget the unicorn, when you walk in the woods, you know something is wrong if the pixies aren't singing. Because that means they're about to swarm. To the East, we have an evil demon lord who is hell bent on conquering the world. While to the South, the Manarian Empire is using their many slaves to feed their many soldiers. Unlike the Demon Nation, the Manarians can actually take over if they wished. But Pheliosta is dying. The Demon Nation and Manarians are nibbling at the borders. Our government rots with corruption. A mob of thieves called the Moonlight Bandits ride freely through the countryside. The monster population has exploded, as well as the demonic one. We used to have the Guardians to keep them in check, but... something happened to them. We need new Guardians to fix this before it's too late. Are you up for the job?
The Guardians
The Guardians consist of 8 members total; 4 humans and 4 demonics. I'll explain their relationship in a bit. For now, I start with the humans. Our four lucky youngsters have been raised in a convent their whole lives, training to be priests and priestesses. They all have a tattoo of their demonic animal on their right shoulders in the color of their power. (Red for fire, blue for water, green for earth, and purple for air) They are masters of one weapon, and all of them have a useful skill. Cooking, sewing, climbing, singing, whatever suits them. They didn't really choose to be here, though. They are orphans. Also, they didn't have a choice if they wanted to be a Guardian or not. Now for our demonics. They may or may not know each other, but they are all wandering the country of Pheliosta for one reason or the other. In their past, they could've been royalty, peasants, a member of the Moonlight bandits, Manarian slave, almost anything. They have medium control of a single element (fire, earth, water, air) and super speed, strength, stamina, and natural intelligence. Another thing, they all have the personification of a certain mythical animal related to their element. They also hold some physical features of said animal, but for the most part look pretty human. But, all of them have a loner complex. That complex may be less extreme in some, while others can't even stand another living being's breath. The Guardians are split into 4 partners; a human and a demonic. This partnership is called the Bond of Lock and Key.
Bond of Lock and Key
The demonics born to be a Guardian are born with an iron chain around their neck. Attached to it, is a lock melded into the shape of the element they control. Neither will rust, break, and/or be removed. A human holds the key to that lock, and the key's design matches that of the lock. The human is born with that key; it is attached to a silver chain around their wrist. However, the key and chain will only appear if Pheliosta needs it's Guardians. So you humans have only recently learned you are the new Guardians. Anyways, it's the job of the humans to go and hunt down their future partner. The goal is to unlock your partner's lock. Simple, right? Anyways, here are the benefits of a partnership.
- The demon will do whatever it takes to protect their partner's life. Whether they want to or not.
- The human has to do the same, but mentally instead of physically. They can't let their demon be sad, no matter what.
- If the demon is unlocked, they receive a massive amount of power. However, they only have so much at their disposal until the lock runs out, and re-shuts itself. The stronger your bond is with your partner, the stronger your power is and it lasts longer too.
- The demon can influence their partner's emotions.

Zenais
Zenais watched the human with a certain kind of vehemence before she eyed his blade. It was long and strong in close combat probably so she would need to use her own long sword. She reached back and slipped the long sword out with ease. She prepared her blade with one hand using the other to balance herself. "Unlock huh? I'll make a deal on my honor. If you can get the key into the lock at any point during this battle then I'll go with you to wherever you want."
She took a step forward beginning her dance. Her wings stirred, strangely because nobody would expect her to use them to escalate her speed but they were wrong. Zenais kept her eye on the blade and the man's body making sure she was able to have an out if his blade came down but also she was searching for a place to strike. The dance of the bird, to strike over and over until an opening provided your victory, was once told to her by her grandfather. She finally lunged forward for the shoulder before flapping out one wing to shift her body weight into a strike to the knee. However her blade was turned sideways so only the flat would hit making him collapse, but not the edge. She wouldn't hurt him just disable him enough to give him a good bruise. As she danced around him to avoid getting hit she knew not if her own sword hit, because she never paid attention to the vibrations in her hand as she moved quickly. Just the movements or the dance.

Laon Hebisuke
Again Laon spent some time in silence. He paid close attention to every word that Layla spoke until she finished her explanation. Laon sighed slightly. "Is that right? So you're saying that this..." Laon spoke softly, pointing at the lock on his neck. "Can be removed by you, and I will gain greater power provided I protect you? Very well." He trudged through the water slowly, heading towards the bank where he had left his three-section staff. During which his eyes remained half open, as if he was lost in thought. For some reason, all of this information seemed very familiar and yet... he couldn't place it. Moreover, the odd feeling he had when he had first met Layla was intensifying as he moved closer to her.
Upon reaching the bank he climbed out and picked up his shirt, which he pulled back on before leaning close to Layla's face, and staring directly into her eyes for a while. His own cold gaze was broken shortly after as he closed his eyes with a smile and held out one hand to his newly found partner. "I sense no ill will in your words, and no malace in your eyes. Therefore, the Sea Serpent Demon Laon Hebisuke, will yield to you. Free me, and I shall protect you with my life."

---Layla Rearing---
Layla stared at the demon before shaking her head, "I cannot unlock it at the moment, for now there is no need. I have heard stories of bandits in the north we can start there in the morning." She started to walk away and stopped to turn her head towards him, "Do not think you can steal the key during the night. The key is a part of me and cannot be removed. I am going to bed, good night Laon Hebisuke."

"Your hand...you're my partner?" she asked. Damien looked at her and shrugged, "I guess so... But putting that aside, why were you hiding?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. Damien leaned over, taking a closer look of the lock around her neck, before looking at the chain around his wrist. He was pretty sure she was asking another question, but for now he ignored it. "I'm pretty sure this lock and the chain has something to do with each other...." he mumbled to himself. The lock was in shape of a wolf, and so was his key. "Yup, I'm guessing I'm right," Although it probably wasnt the best idea to unlock that thing right now, curiosity got the best of him. Without a second thought, Damien stuck the key into the lock, and turned it.

Elric
Elric's cocky smile dropped into a slanted displeased grimace as Michaline advanced on him, the sharp tone in her voice making his eye twitch. He didn't like the way this was going. He straightened himself to his full height as she got into arms reach of him, which was quite the difference in height since he was 6'3". He sighed, running his hands through his thick wind-blown chestnut brown hair. He never expected to actually meet his partner...he hadn't even thought about it honestly, it just seemed like the time would never come, and he had been trying to avoid such a situation. He thoroughly enjoyed going about his life by himself, and without someone attached to him like a ball and chain by their so called 'Unavoidable Destiny'. He glanced down when she snapped her whip out, raising an eyebrow. Mm, so that's how it is...she was going the intimidating route to ger her way. He ignored the drawn whip as if it were just a piece of licorice.
"Excuse me for calling you 'Little Lady'....but you are quite small.." He said rather bluntly, using his hand to level the difference between their height above Michaline's head with a slight grin as he looked down at her.
"Are you going to let me unlock you, or do I have to tie you up first? We're partners from now on. Get used to it."
The purple light seemed to glow brighter the closer they were to each other. Elric narrowed his eyes at her, then glanced at the lock around his neck, running his fingers over it subconsciously as he eyed Michaline's serious expression. He seemed to be in deep thought for a moment, his attention on the lock. He seemed to come to some sort of decision based on his expression as he backed up a little by sliding his foot backwards, getting ready.
"I'm sorry...I just don't think having a partner is going to work for me right now. Perhaps another day..."
Elric winked at her, and shot off towards the edge of the roof like lightning, turning his head to salute her with a smirk as he dove off the edge, landing on the next close rooftop, doing a tumble roll as he landed and took off running again.

Laon Hebisuke
Laon sighed, running a hand gently through his hair before watching Layla walk away. Well, she’s certainly a clever one... He tilted his head slightly before picking up his three-section staff and following after her. Bandits to the North? Interesting... I guess that old woman from the last town was right... Sheesh. We’re supposed to go stop them? Laon shook the thought away, and decided that he should change the subject. ”I think you’re misjudging the type of person I am. Then again, if I were you, I’d be cautious too...”
He sat at the base of a tree, and closed his eyes softly. Besides, if I were to steal anything, I’d take you’re weapon... He smiled slightly at the thought, before fading into sleep with a slight murmur. “Goodnight...”

Michaline Walker
((Sigh. Why do my partners always run?! Oh well. This "Little Lady" has a few tricks up her sleeve ;}))
Michaline watched, snapped her whip, but just a second too late. "All right..." she smiled. She knew the damage it would cause her body, but, she figured that she didn't have much choice. Fangs slid down, piercing her bottom lip, a very long, very smooth tail made it's way from her hem line. Her fingernails lengthened and sharpened into claws, and her red eyes went cat-like. She could see perfectly in the darkness, and her muscles relaxed, ready for the hunt. "I see you, demon." She smiled, and lept silently aftr him, crouching like a cat as she hit the ground. Her tail whipped back and forth as she quickly circled around him. She had to admit, he was fast, but her mother had been a Cat-demonic. Panther, to be more specific. There was no known faster Demonic around. She had him cornered, and he hadn't noticed her yet. She watched carefully, for if he took off, she'd have to take to a rooftop before he got too high. She took out her whip agaon and it slithered through the air with a hiss, wrapping itself firmly and unrelentingly on the Demonic's wrist. She came forth from the shadows, so that he could see her, even in Demonic, half-form. "I told you I'd tie you up first if I had to, didn't I?" She said softly with a sly smile. Without waiting for a response, or a change for him to escape, the Key of Air slid smoothly into the Demon's lock. With a click, it unlocked.
Vincent Hawke
AS the blade hit, Vincent barely contained his wince. He danced away, holding the lance at the ready. "Very well. If this is how it must be, then so be it. I accept your challenege." With that, he lunged, ready to either parry or side roll out of the way. The odd thing about Vincent as the fight went on was, he never once focused on Zenais' blade or face. Just the lock. Always, his eyes were on the lock.

((Twili , less of your partners would run away if you used a flower and chocolate apraoch instead of whips and promises of bondage. XD))
Vera grinned as the lock gave one last blast of light before unlocking , filling her with a small sence of power. "YES! FREEDOM!" Vera stared eegerly down at herself , patting herself down before blinking and looking at Damien. "...I dont really feel all that different. DId you do it right?" Vera was only mildly surprised , she had hopes that she would be stronger and faster then any other demonic right away but she knew that required a bond and Vera did not even know her partners name yet. Still it would have been nice for her dreams to be realized just like that.
Vera sighed , holding the lock necklace in her had and trying to crush it , grumblnig all the whole. "Stupid bond...stupid human just leashed me and I got NOTHING!" Vera smashed her sword against the ground , leaving a sizable imprint and hole in it and Vera gave a blink and light smile as she saw the small crater she caused and then she heaved her sword on to her shoulder. "Okay...so it worked...somewhat." Vera turned to Damien and moved her visor back to the hair band position before giving a light bow. "Vera Sinzell of the eastern forest wolf demonics and your new leashed partner. If you call me 'babe' , 'girl' , 'honey' or 'doll' I will punch you in a very uncomfortable place." In truth Vera would have just blushed and denied being any of those things but now was not a time to lose the tough girl act.
"Now then!...What do we do now?" Veras stomach growled in response and Vera gave a light blush before pointing towards the town. "We should go eat....on your coins."

Zenais
Zenais danced away again, trying her best to stay out of hitting distance of his blade. It was hard when the blade in question was on a pole meant to strike from afar if needed. She huffed out air. The human had lasted longer than she had expected and he had just barely seemed to flinch at the strike to the knee. She knew she wouldn't kill him because she had said so. A phoenix would never back down on a bet but the longer she had to keep up with backing away and scanning for an opening, the longer her muscles twinged and burned from the workout. She could have the stamina of the world but without the strength to back it up you could only last for so long. Longer than most but not far off. She parried again, backing away from the blade and circling around to keep the arena in close quarters.
She stopped and side-stepped the blade keeping low to the ground, and aimed for the throat but something made her hesitate and go still, muscles tensing. She hesitated for too long. The scene went in slow motion and she closed her eyes as she redirected the sword to try and defend herself but there had been a huge gap. She only felt the lock tinkle against the chain, as if to taunt her that she would lose to the filthy humans she despised.

---Layla Rearing---
Layla was still staring at the stars and trying to fall asleep. Sighing she rolled over onto her back, she felt restless. Just as she was about to fall asleep her key started to glow again, "What the..." Suddenly, Layla felt a strong force urging her forward. Never one to disobey a strong order, Layla followed the way where she was being lead only to come upon a sleeping Laon. "I-I don't understand..." Slowly she felt her body moving on it's own and grabbing the key from around her wrist. Layla fought the urge, but to no avail and with a sudden burst of urgency the key went into the lock and turned. "No...No...not like this..." A force of energy blew around them and Layla's mind becoming warped as she could only think of one thing....Laon. She needed to protect him...He couldn't be sad... He would never be sad again! Was he alright? Why wasn't he waking up?
Hey sorry I did not know you had to open the lock when you first meet the person...The best solution I could think of at the moment was this.

Elric ran across the rooftops, finding a place to jump down onto the street within moments. He glanced over his shoulder into the darkness, he didn't see any sign of the girl. He exotic green and golden eyes saw clearly in the dark, due to him being a dragon demonic, he had excellent night vision, and can even see in thermal vision, making so he can see the warmth of a living creature near by. But he had looked back too soon, for the girl WAS following him, and he hadn't a clue. He rushed down through alleyways and as he was about to walk out onto the main street, there was a loud hiss of a whip and a SNAP as it curled itself around his wrist. His eyes widened, and he jerked his head in the direction the whip was coming from. He saw the thermal shape of a woman....with..a tail? He blinked in surprise as Michaline stepped into full view, looking very feline.
"I told you I'd tie you up first if I had to, didn't I?"

"I told you I'd tie you up first if I had to, didn't I?"
Elric could't help but smirk, and relaxed his stance. "You did, I'll admit. Although I never thought you would be able to catch up...but it appears I am wrong." He looked her up and down, she looked quite ferocious with her fangs and smooth black tail. "But...that was quite unfair of you to hide that you are half demonic." He smiled, and saw as she tensed her muscles, ready to strike. Well, he knew when he was cornered, and would admit defeat. Besides....with this new little twist, having her be his partner may not be as bad as he thought, her being half demonic made it interesting. He closed his eyes as the air key slid into the lock around his neck with a click as she turned it. A silent explosion of purple light engulfed both of them in the tiny alley, only lasting for a few moments. But in those moments, everything changed. Elric could feel the light swirl around him and Michaline, his mind expanding with new thoughts and feelings that felt almost natural that they should be there. He felt protective, and a deep loyalty that he knew could never be broken. The lights danced around them, connecting them like a glowing chain, and then faded, the invisible bond having been made.

Michaline Walker
Michaline was surprised when the light engulfed them. And then, it wa gone. It ad been replaced by a new feeling...of loyalty, and...she could sense his emotions. Knowing it would happen did not prepare her for actualy feeling it. She was....inexplicably happy. However, reality set in all too soon, as her body suddenly went rigid. Her eyes widened as a small trickle of blood appeared from the corner of her mouth. She slapped a hand over her mouth as she coughed, and it came away with blood. "Damnit..." she muttered, trying to focus through her woozyness. Slowly, her ears and tail vanished, and her eyes went back to normal. When she had gone back to human form, she looked weary. "Human bodies weren't meant to be under the strain of Demonic blood." She said softly. "It's why my mother, a pnther demonic, was reluctant to mate with my father. When she found out she was with child, she ran, terrified. She died shortly after delivery. This of course means that I have a father somewhere." She wondered vaugly why she was telling him this. However, this was drowned out by the feeling of worry that slammed into her from him. "Don't worry, I'll be fne shortly." Her eyes came up to his own. They were still standing quite close to each other. "I don't believe you ever told me your name."
Vincent Hawke
Vincent lunged once again, but missed her completely. At least, that's what it looked like. Until he kept coming at her. He smiled lightly as his key slid smoothly into her lock. With a click, it turned. "I believe that means I win, yes?"

Zenais
Zenais faltered as she saw the inevitable. It was one moment where she had been desperately trying to move and then the next where she could hear the slow turn of gears. The one click that made a sudden burst of red light stain the hillside where the two had been battling. She let out a cry at the warmth and fire that overwhelmed her body. The feelings that would bond her to the human for centuries, even when her body lay cold in the earth, her soul would remain the same. She sank to her knees breathing out slowly as the light began to dim. Her hand dropped her blade like the traitorous retch it was. Her mind conflicted as her old feelings struggled before dying out. She wanted to be near the human, wanted to be needed by the human and also to protect him. The thoughts just made her fingers twitch. However it wasn't the feelings that disturbed her the most. It was the feeling of power surging just under her skin ready to be used. Fire and brimstone like a true phoenix. She glanced up at the human her eyes flickering like flame for a moment before seemingly going normal. "I see then. You win." She murmured.
She stood shakily and brushed off her robes with ease. "What would you wish me to do then? What is our mission? I have only been told by the chief of my village that it intertwines about something with the nations and war. Other information was kept under wraps." She instinctively moved closer, edging around his blade. Her expression was flat however, she had not lost her personality. Just her freedom. She reached down to grab her blade and shoulder it. She felt restless. Active. "Let's get a move on. While I'm still in a good enough mood from whatever the lock did to me. It feels sorta weird. The town is in the distance where you can rest. It's getting late after all." Wow. Did I really just express concern for someone? She thought with curious interest. Things were getting hot, and fast.

Elric
As the light vanished, the new feelings did not. Elric took in a deep breath and opened his eyes, looking now at his partner in a new light. All of the reluctant feelings were gone, and replaced with the intense urge to work together to complete the task that had been handed to them through fate. Elric's eyes widened as he saw Michaline body go rigid, and blood trickle down the side of her mouth. He quickly stepped forward and placed a hand on her shoulder, assuring her that he had her in case she fell, which just seemed like the natural thing to do. It was so strange...how things had changed in the blink of an eye. He was genuinely worried about a girl he had just met! He watched in curiosity as her ears and tail vanished, and then looked down at her with flicker of worry in his entrancing eyes. He listened closely as she spoke, her voice sounding weakened. So, she was a half Demon, with no mother and a mystery father somewhere. Seemed like she had quite the tough life until now, it must have been rough.
"I don't believe you ever told me your name."
As Michaline's eyes came up to meet his, his mouth twitched upwards in a small smirk, "Ah, I guess that's an important minor detail." He chucked, sliding his hand off her shoulder and offering it to her in the form of a handshake, "Elric, Elric Valsar." he said, winking playfully as their hands clasped together. "It's nice to meet you Michaline."

Michaline Walker
Her own playful smirk reached her lips as she replyed, "Oh, I'm sure it is. I wouldn't know, I've never had the opportunity to meet myself." They're hands stayed clasped longer han what was normal for a handshake, but Mic didn't seem to mind. Then, her red eyes sparkled playfull as she then said, "Now...this business of yours. It wouldn't happen to involve a tavern, would it? Because I for one, could really use a drink. A fight would be nice, but if I can't have that, then a drink would be the next best thing." She winked at him. Michaline knew ow to handle herself, and wasn't afraid to show it.
Vincent Hawke
Vincent smiled gently. "You mustn't think of yourself like that. You're not a slave, you're my partner. We don't have to always be around one another, though the stronger our Bond, the more painful it is emotionaly to be apart. You don't have to do what I say, and I don't, and never will, order you around. That's not how it works." He whistled, and Ivory came trotting up. He mounted her, and then held out his hand for Zenias. "I do agree, we should get to the town quickly. We can discuss our options tomorrow morning."

Zenais
She inclined her head, an avian motion for curious interest. "Partner, huh? Your a strange human." There was a moment where her expression tensed before she seemed to shrug off the weariness. Zenais ruffled her wings and glanced back to view where the feathers had grown back in. Seems her healing properties were kicking in faster. Lost in her new self, she raised a hand and snapped her fingers lighting a flame in the afterglow of dusk. "Sweet." She whispered in quiet awe. Her grandmother had the power to summon the flames from her blood into the external reality. Now Zenais could do a little bit of the same. She just hoped the power would last. Turning her attention back to her new so called partner, Zenais flapped her wings. "I'll fly. I wanna watch your back from the sky. I can't do anything on horseback."
She didn't let him tell her anything else before she was already gaining altitude. Her wings pushed and controlled the currents of air that swirled around her. She took a small moment to look down, her wings outspread, to watch the speck that was Vincent before flying around him keeping track of his surroundings.

Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
Sorry!! I haven't been able to post. Trust me. There's just barely any darn connection this resort. Specially every time I have time. So ill try to keep posting but until maybe in two days it won't get much quicker for me. Totally hate posting on the phone BTW Lmao.
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
All right, thanks Lady. I'll be waiting. And where did the rest of you go? If you're following the OOC thread, please post so i know you're still interested in continuing the roleplay.
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
I'll try to post tonight! Sorry for being gone, I just got a job and have been working for the past few days.
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
Okay, the lock is never actually removed. It stays around the demon's neck. So Vera can't "throw it away". Sorry, should have made that clear. As the demons are able to tap into more and more of their power, yes, their appearance can change, but not at first. Yes, The demon automatically feel obliged to protect his human, and they both feel obligated to be loyal, while the human feels obligated to keep her demon happy. This is instantanious. upposedly, because they are opposite genders, the Bond can eventualy lead to a kind of love between them, though it is not necesary. Just an option. The Bond litteraly is "friendship, love" that sort of thing. Their souls become entwined, like the Soul Mate principle from the Night World series.
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
So, aside from them feeling that enormous power within, how else does unlocking effect the demons? Anything appearance-wise? Or any other little details we need to know?
Oh! And what exactly is the Bond?? Do they feel automatically attached to each other, like a loyal forever kind of thing?

Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
Okay, sorry Lax, I meant ot say something. Yes, you must unlock the demon right away, simply because the Bond does not start until then. And when a demon is unlocked, they, and their partner, feel an unimaginable source of power laying dormant inside the demon, and being able to tap into that power is what they have to figure out. They can tap inot it only with the bond. And for anyone who hasn't read Michaline's profile, she's half-demon, half-human. :3 I love twists.
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
well my character is the type who just cant sit and wait... I dont think it really matters, but if the GM wants them to unlock it later on, i'll edit my post... ;P
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
Do we have to unlock the lock right away? In my post I kinda said no when he asked saying that there was no need at the moment. Should I change that?
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
So what exacly happens when you get unlicked? Vera gonna start glowing green and get muscles? Grow claws and fangs and act more wolfish? Get glowing golden spikey hair?
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
*Does what zolzol does, only to LadyLibby.* Seriously...where did you go?!?! D':
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
*pokes Jade with a stick , repeatively* Hey. Hey. Heeeeeey. Wake up. *poke poke poke* it's your turn to post.
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
No, Akantha is right. The Bond does not start between partners until the human unlocks the demon for the first time. So, since Zenias hasn't been unlocked yet, she can attack him without being plauged.
Re: [OOC] Demonic Champions
Aww but i'm not hurting him...Is a bruise okay? Plus I figured all that happened once she was unlocked o.o Hmm want me to do an edit? So that it makes more sense. Because once she got unlocked It would be impossible but since the bond (MAYBE) isn't forged yet then she might have a chance. But we all know in the end she's gunna get unlocked but still....
