Name: Kira (has no last name)
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Race: Winter
Appearance:
Height: 5' 6
Weight: 125 lbs.
Weapons: Quarterstaff
Armor: A pale white enchanted cloak able to reflect arrows and similar projectiles but nothing bigger.
Fighting Style: Magic, is adept with his quarterstaff in melee.
Spells: Can use quite a bit of magic and sorcery. Kira is able to summon a cold aura that follows him, sharply dropping the temperature in a ten foot area to freezing though he scarcely uses it as it instills fear that he doesn't want. Most of his magic specializes in evocations (things like fireballs and lightning bolts and controlling the weather) and Divination (seeing things from long distances.)
Skills: Can observe things happening elsewhere in reflective surfaces as well as talk to and see ghosts. He can sense magic.
History: Among the winter kingdom, Kira is something of a legend; just not the kind most want told about them. Unlike most of the people born in the winter kingdom, Kira is adept in the use of magic instead of being a warrior or knight. Not only that, his magic is more potent than most have seen and the things he can do are as frightening to him as others. The kingdom now speaks of him as a tale told to little children to get them to behave, but they know he is all to real. Kira is only referred to as the Snow walker as he lives alone out in the tundra of the winter kingdom. Yet, contrary to popular belief, Kira is afraid to use his magic save for the few things he cannot control. He is afraid of what it could do to others, and what it could do to himself. (More will be revealed in game.)
Personality: Kira is a calm and collected person with a kind heart, but years of isolation have made him distant and at times bitter.

There is a place within each of us where we cannot escape the truth; where virtue sits as judge. To admit the truth of our actions is to go before that court, where process is irrelevant. Good and evil are intents, and intent is without excuse.

Yay! Here's mine! (I assume this is one of the places you wanted me to post this. ^.~)
•Character Sheet
First Name: Matrim
Last Name: Caustium
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Race: Autumn
Weaponry: The weapon he is known to use is a cross between a Naginata and a Bisento Spear. The blade mounted atop the spear is thicker than one traditionally found on a Naginata spear, but not as thick as the blade on a Bisento spear. The blade is solidly attached to a long wooden pole that is oval to give the user a feel for which way the sharp edge of the blade is facing. (For picture, see below character sheet.)
For close combat, he also has a short curved knife.
Magic: He posses little in the ways of magic. Although he has been known to produce a small spark with a snap of his fingers when called for.
Appearance: Hidden under a cap of dark brown wool, he has dark, rust colored hair with streaks of shimmering gold layered throughout. His eyes are jade green in color and are very observent. He keeps his face clean shaven, not wanting anyone to comment on the color of his hair. Taller than an average person, his body is in good shape and he doesn't exhaust easily.
(For picture, see below character sheet.)
Personality: How does your character act within society? Reliable, dependable...... Will fill in later. '^.^
Back story: When Matrim was born out of season, the people in the small village shook their heads with sorrow thinking he would soon die. However, Matrim had very loving parents and they tended to his needs whenever he fell ill. As result, not only did Matrim survive past his first five years of life, but he also grew up to be just as strong and healthy as the other children his age. His life was full of mischief and laughter until he turned seven years of age.
At this time, his mother died while attempting to give birth to a second child born out of season. Hope, her daughter of spring, lived through the difficult childbirth. However, even with the support of the other villagers, Matrim's father could not raise two children born out of season on his own.
And so another change was brought into young Matrim's life. The three Caustium's sold their old house and moved into a larger city where Matrim's aunt, Twittern, lived. She had little love for children, but gave her brother the support he needed. Because of this, Matrim grew protective of his younger sister and did much to raise her. Often, he would sit beside her bed late into the night as his parents had done for him and tend to her while she was ill.
Another change that was brought about by their move to the city, was his realization about how usual he was when comparied to the other children. Because of this, children older than him began to bully and pick fights because with his wild head of red and gold hair he stood out as different. Despite the disadvantages he faced, Matrim learned how to defend himself and how to win fights against people twice his size. This continued, until he had made enough of a reputation for himself that he was generally left alone.
At the age of sixteen, Matrim could ignore his wandering spirit no longer. With a farewell to his father, sister and aunt, Matrim left the city and began to walk a path all his own. On occasion, he still visits his family who are doing well.
Extra: Matrim is twenty-six years old now. He has been living on his own for well over ten years doing various jobs and never staying in one spot for very long. Most commonly, he is hired by merchants as a guard for their caravans.

Alright, it's 2 in the morning and for some odd reason I can't fathom, I'm still awake..... So I decided to search the web for a bunch of nature photos and pieced together a banner for this Rp..... Remember, it's 2 AM. And I'm listening to my dog snore......

I think I'll head to bed now. ~.~ Right after I edit the first banner to make a second one.

NOW I'm going to bed.

All right, I have your bad guy. Tell me what you think and what alterations you would make. Kk ;) thanks

These are the Medo do escuro. They live in large clans outside of the Seasons to the south of the Summer kingdom, across the sea. They have attacked killed and mutilated many of the Seafolk and have now come to our lands in search of more space. They are strong and fast, learning at an almost impossible rate, more like machines. They have no magic to speak of, apart from that which animates them and the tentacles that grow from the base of their heads. The tentacles that grow there poison the flesh they touch, rendering it painful, before becoming numb and useless. The poison that originally affects the touched area, if not treated, reaches up to the lager organs of the body, causing paralysis or death. Their skin varies in shades of grey, becoming lighter the older they are and it is made out of something like organic porcelain, strong but brittle.

*Thumbs up* I like! (Great picture!) So it's an organized invasion? And their goal is to aquire more land, so they're trying to exterminate all the native inhabitants? How do they fight? (ex. Organized like the Romans? or not so organized like the Norse?) Do we know what their main weapon of choice is? Is there a god/godess or deity that they worship?
~.~ I'm good for asking the random, semi-useless questions..... lol

lol no no, your questions are awesome, as well as your last post! I really enjoyed reading it, and if I could figure out how to rate posts, I would give it a 5 :D fo sho. lol
hmm I am CO-GM for this RP, so my suggestions for all the questions you asked:
(feel free to change these things around Mercy if you had other things in mind)
-yeah I think it should be an organized invasion; maybe the day of their invasion fleets upon fleets of enemy ships could enter the coasts, cause havoc, etc.
-I assume yes they are trying to get more land, and kill everything in their way of getting the land. I don't think they would want to exterminate alllll the locals, because there would be way too many, but definitely the natives would be prisoners/treated poorly if the Medo do escuro were to be successful after the war
-hmm I would think it would be unorganized battle, seeing as how they are very vicious, as well independent fighters who most likely follow their own beat of their drums.
-weapon of choice? hmm swords, knives, poisons, their tentacles... just trying to make the weapons even on both sides. I dont think there are guns

Haha, sleep deprivation does wonders for my writing. Although, I haven't a clue how I led up to the ending...
Oh! I knew we had a CO-GM, but I didn't know who it was. Nice to meet you! ^.~
*Nods head* Oh, here we go! Plot bunny: the Medo do escuro sent scouts over to collect information, and that's when the Summer king was alerted to the threat!
lol, true. Why kill off potential slaves and laborers?
Oh, darn. And I was so looking forward to using my lasar gun. *Stores Death Ray away along with the Anti-gravity Belt* JK!!!!!! It was sarcasm! (I blame sleep deprivation.... You should too.) I agree we should keep it even for both sides.
