Introduction
You've just arrived in town. You locate a suitable tavern so you can figure out your next move on a full stomach. Outside the tavern is a board where numerous messages have been posted. Your eye is immediately drawn to one:

Rules
GENERAL RP GUIDELINES
This is a more light-hearted and comedic oriented roleplay, though I'd still like to balance the humorous elements against serious character and story developments.
A couple setting notes: This is pretty open fantasy world, so feel free to be creative. You are encouraged to rip off whatever suits your fancy. Technology level should stay in general a pre-Rennaisance level, except for the occasional rarity/oddity of the advanced clockwork variety (i.e. the kind of advanced technology you'd expect in a fantasy story).
CHARACTER CREATION GUIDELINES
For this I decided to make the character creation skeleton a short application/interview form to be written in-character. This should be sufficient enough to illustrate your character without needing you to go too in-depth to personality and history if you'd rather flesh that out in the roleplay. The only other thing is put a brief physical description afterwards, especially if you don't have a picture, just so people can better visualize your character.
As far as races go, be whatever you want. Make up a race if you want. If we have two elves or vampires that are totally different that'll just make it even more delightfully weird. We'll have fun handwaving it.
As far as powers go, you're heroes so it's acceptable for you to be a cut above the rest (but by no means mandatory). Stuff like Epic Level D&D spellcasting and skill is fine, as is things you'd find in real world mythology (up to a limit). I'll let you know if there's a problem.
You are not required to detail your characters down to very last fiber, but I'd expect you have a solid conception of them in your own mind. I won't require you to submit anything beyond the above application. We can handle any such details later or in OOC if they come up.
POSTING GUIDELINES
1. Post Length: One liners are tolerated so long as they are quality one liners. Longer posts must adhere to a three pun per paragraph minimum.
2. Okay, just kidding on that last one. But this is definitely a lighter toned roleplay, so make sure to bring along your sense of humor.
Other than that I shouldn't have to tell you how to behave yourselves.

OOC Notes
"Damn, my back's effin' killin' me!" Clark complained as he collapsed onto the sofa. He did not get paid enough to dole out his metal babies to those ungrateful newbies (by which he meant, "at a cost," of course) and stand behind a cramped counter all day! He was six feet and 20 pounds of manly muscle; he needed space, dammit! Why did he take this job again?
Oh yeah, free advertising. He chuckled, taking a swig out of his sweet, sweet elixir. It really was a shame that there weren't that many people who appreciated the beauty of booze. Come to think of it, didn't that one chick, Lyra Something-or-other drink too? He should go drinking with her sometime; she seemed like a fun drinking buddy. She also seemed like she'd have some hilarious stories to tell, judging by his tingling nipples.
Clark belched, and started focusing on the empty space in his right palm. In but a few moments, a small, steaming, metal ball formed in his hand, and he threw it across the empty room.
*CRASH!*
He sighed.
"DAMMIT, I'M LONELY!" Clark bellowed to the empty lounge.

(OOC: Oh well, someone started it already might as well play by)
Georgina dropped her gold coin bag on top of the bar and demanded the bar maid for a chug, "One order and fast." She was a female but any man or men would think twice before messing around with her.
"Tough day?" Eliza the bar maid asked and chuckled. She was used to Georgina's mood swings.
Her pretty face scowled and let out a grunt as an answer.
"Here, first one's on the house"
"Thanks. At least that's the first good news for the day," Georgina finally spoke long enough.
"Here. You might be interested," Eliza handed her a large ad with a wanted sign on it.
"I work alone," she then finished her alcohol with one gulp.
"But you need more gold to make sure your plans work out," Her friend answered while wiping the other beer mugs.
"Yeah but I can find other ways to do it,"
"But this one give the biggest pay off. In no time you'd have more money. Besides, kicking ass has never been a problem for you George," Eliza called her fondly of her nickname.
It made her think about the possibilities if she did apply to be one of the "heroes" or whatever they want to call it. She stood up and headed towards wherever it was they needed heroes. Signed up the paper they made her fill up.
There were a lot of people but she doubt they were made to be really tough for killing.

OOC Notes
Ren walked on the wide road through the city, the one that would lead to the the quarter of the new Questing Guild. It wasn't his first visit on the mortal realm, he had been to various places in different disguises. However he had rarely been there for to long, unwilling to waste much of his time outside the much more exciting realm of his father. The material world seems so boring for someone that was born to a world where you just have to wish for something to let it become true. Well, now he had no other choice but to live here, with those boring mortals. He passed the market area, soon he would reach the pompous building which he could already see across the crowded area. People of various races, here to look through the exotic goods to buy or sell them, some even aiming to acquire these by less honorable means. Ren's eyes fell to particular exquisite, though provocatively dressed beautiful elven woman. Maybe it won't be as bad as he thought for himself, he might actually enjoy his stay here. He sighed as his sight on the woman got blocked by a group of travelers passing through. With a few more steps he passed through the crowd, exiting it in front of the guildhall's entrance. He grinned as he stored the big pouch, full with pieces of gold, in his belt.
After he went through the interview and filled out the sheet he lazily placed himself on a very comfortable seat, that happened to just appear out of nothingness. He seated himself next to a young woman, who seemed to arrive just before himself. Waiting was one of the worst things these mortals invented, if only the deities of creation would have thought about that before. With a wink of his hand, he held a thin glass full of an exotic looking drink, a mix of various fruits that grew in a country far away. People around him looked at him angrily or surprised, those that waited weren't supposed to show-off or cast magic out of good manners. Ren could care less about these foolish mortals and their rules, at least to what he thought now. He looked over to the side, at the young woman next to him. She seemed to have that otherworldly touch, that he had perceived in fey or elves every now and than. He grinned while speaking to her.
"Oh... what a pleasant sight. What might be your name?"

Georgina was busy polishing her blade as she waits to be called when a man, in what appears to be a white Greek robe, asked her.
She eyed him evil-y and smirked, "I have no time for foolishness mister." She eyed the end of her weapon's blade where she can see everyone's reflection. A lot of the others were threatened by her presence while most of them were obviously afraid.
"Why don't you just skip in the gardens with your wine my friend," She stood up and playfully tapped Ren's shoulder heavily. For a fragile looking woman. Georgina has a strong and heavy grip, sometimes heavier than a full grown man. This caused Ren's drink to spill.
"Sorry about that," She walked off to the open area, solicited (or forcefully requested) an herbal tobacco from a puny man who was shaking while handing her a roll.
A loud cry from a huge bird was heard then a black Falcon suddenly landed on her shoulder. Georgina grabbed some seeds from one of her make-shift pockets and fed her friend.

Re: [OOC] Quest For Epic
LOL, even before I get to read this about Ren I think Georgina already gave him a piece of her mind ^_^
Re: [OOC] Quest For Epic
Ok, lets just try to start this roleplay without the GM.
@lovechanningforever: Before you ask, yes Ren is supposed to be an arrogant fool. If you want to slap him or something, go ahead.

Re: [OOC] Quest For Epic
I don't know. I am really hoping that Shanatos will post something, but I honestly don't believe it.
Re: [OOC] Quest For Epic
Hey... errrr.... Will there be an RP or will this just be filled with OOC posts? Coz really it's been weeks. I think.
Re: [OOC] Quest For Epic
Yeah, I know. Some people are also called heroes because they just killed a hundred people alone.
I just have to compare it to the classical heroic deeds in fantasy.
Quest: Slay the evil Dragon.
Group Replies:
"YEAH! Let's bathe in his blood"
"Mh... let's steal all his gold and get out of there."
"Is he holding a busty princess captured?"
"Nah, I heard there is no tavern close by... I'll stay here."
We have healers... sort of... Lyra (the angel) is one, and to an extend also Ren. In DnD terms you could view him as multiclass Bard/Cleric, even though the second half of his powers fails him occasionally.^^

Re: [OOC] Quest For Epic
Are you kidding? A ragtag group of misfits with quirky personalities is the PERFECT group of heroes! ^^ They're the kind of people who always, without fail, save the world! XD
Although I do hope that there's at least one medic. From the looks of things, they're all going to need one.

Re: [OOC] Quest For Epic
Hey, I was always taught that the Greeks thought anyone who carried out a "great deed" a hero. By the way, that included that historical greek dude who ripped off the roof of an orphanage and thereby killed lots of kids, or so my memory tells me...
Anyway, I prefer to look at them as "anti-heroes" rather than sad excuses for heroes. XD

Re: [OOC] Quest For Epic
Aside from a very few characters, we have the worst band of "heroes" ever in one place. Either we have crazy killing machines, womanizers, alcoholics or everything mixed.^^
There are only two or three serious monster hunters.

Hey. Saw you already have quite a lot of characters. But I still decided to make my own. Hope it's not too late. :D
Re: [OOC] Quest For Epic
I will be making an introductory post of the Guildmaster and my other characters sometime tomorrow, but otherwise a Guildhall area is up for those who wish to begin.

Re: [OOC] Quest For Epic
Just finished my sheet, I hope you like it. Don't feel to shocked about the race, there is a father-son-conflict within.^^
Also nachos and coke for the first that tells me, which D&D deity I used as patron for my character.
