Introduction
The great war started when a very powerful mage by the name of Sunder overthrew the ruling body in Pandora. Now Sunder was not his true name, but that name has been lost to history. He was one of the few mages who had ever been able to master the element of Spirit. He could not only control the souls of the recently departed, but eventually could call a soul out of the body of an enemy. He was truly a force to be reckoned with. He used both the enslaved souls and the lifeless husks to form an army. One that did not need to be fed and felt no pain. It took a group of all three races to finally destroy him. What happened to him exactly is not known, only that he was banished from this realm and his evil army destroyed. With out their master some spirits did escape and have been known to cause trouble all over Evendale.
However, a dark force has been gathering strength. It started out with small things. Raids on border towns and disappearances. People reported seeing strange lights in the sky at night. This would be followed by strange illnesses and even stranger behavior.
The most recent attack had been one surrounded in rumor. The few who survived reported seeing strange creatures coming out of the darkness, and within weeks of the attack they were all dead from what appeared to be natural causes or accidents. The council decided that they needed to find out what exactly was going on. That is where you come in. Each of the three kingdoms has been asked to send an emissary into a group that will head to the badlands in search for the culprits.
Here are the three species known to inhabit Evendale and the fourth is what these knew unknown assailants will be called.
Angels (Seraphine); can fly, most often use bow and arrow or a spear, have healing abilities.:
1. Orion Vryce
2.
Mages (Pandora) able to control the elements of fire, water, earth, and air. A select few can control spirit. :
1. Jameson Meadow (or Jaylen Meadow) both are on character sheet.
2.
Elves (Alfheim) Most often archers or hand to hand combatants. Able to speak with animals and use telekenisis :
1. Chandra Surket
2. Al'Turian Rakasha
Darklings/Other (Badlands) Not much is known about them:
1. Kira Blackweb
2.
Here is a map of Evendale
There needs to be at least one from each of the three races.

"I would be half way there already if I hadn't had to wait for father to pick someone else to come along." she sighed out load, though really talking to herself.
She knew that it was for the best, going alone would not be as helpful as going with a partner, and really she couldn't ask for a better partner. She had her pack all set. She had brought water, food, medical supplies, clothes, and of course weapons. She didn't think to bring anything in the way of shelter, because she figured she would just sleep in the trees. Not having spent much of time outside of Alfheim, she didn't think about places where trees may not be as prevalent. Forethought was not always her strongest suit.
She was wearing the light leather outfit she usually wore, but had also brought more substantial clothing for colder weather. While she didn't always think ahead, this was one thing that she did remember to consider. She pulled her hair back and braided it. This way it would stay out of the way. She glanced behind her and gave a loud sigh. If Al'Turian didn't get here soon, though more than likely he was here and just being sneaky, she would consider going with out him.....or at least pretend to consider it.

Once the hunter was assured that no one was watching and waiting he left the trees and walked up to Chandra. He approached from behind, footprints making hardly any sound on the lush grass. "M'lady" he announced, his voice soft yet controlled and defined, as she looked glanced behind. His hair and body looked like he had playing in mud, so coated with mud and leaves as it was. His hair was more plastered enough that almost none of his natural white showed through. His backpack contained meager provisions for himself, food and basics. But iy also contained extras of everything the princess would need, including a tent which she had forgotten herself.

They had known each other forever. His family was in charge of protecting hers. In truth she hated it when he acted as though he was of a lower station than she was. He was incredibly skilled and she felt that they deserved more respect than most of the other "nobility" ranks. His family did, and always had done, something that was truly worthwhile.
"Alright mud face, let's get going. I don't want to be the last ones at the inn. Also, before we meet the other members of this little group, you are going to have to clean up." she smiled at him and turned toward the path. Excitement raced in her veins. This would be a true adventure.

He nodded in agreement as she called him "mud face". He knew his most look like some wild man or something to anyone else who saw him. He began to pull mud and leaves from his white hair as the princess set off. He followed after her, smiling at her excitement, it remind him of the games of cat and mouse they used to play. He was always too good at being the cat. However, thinking as her protector he frowned, the open fields were not what he was used to. His skills would be at a disadvantage. Also there was little cover, so although they could see any arrivals, this arrivals would see them as easy. If they had malicious intend that would bode trouble.

"Very well mier, i will allow you to go, and set up our new home" said Kira lazily "The badlands have become, too hostile for our people, we will be hunted soon and in a month we will join you, but". She paused chucking a bone onto the pile behind her and stroking the large spider next to her. "It will be many years until we attack the elves, many years, they are too powerful" She concluded and turned away.
The driders went on with their buisness whilst Mier and his companions left to prepare themselves to enter Seraphine

The troop started walking again along the dark dusty road to Seraphine.

He turned to see how his charge was faring with the journey "We've got about an hour and a half before we reach the inn." He said to the Princess "If we pick up the pace we might be able to get there only a little while after dark. Do you think you can make it Chandra?" He didn't doubt the woman in the least, he knew that she was likely to forge on in response to his question. It was merely his duty to think about her well being.

The group ignored Arons outburst as they moved on. "We must be wary of the lurkers, Mier" said Xander in his scratchy deep voice.
Aron squealed in delight as he saw the three figures heading towards the group. Three at dwarves, tired and carrying heavy sacks. Mier laughed. "I don't mind dwarf but i prefer elf"
The dwarves in fear began to run, drawing shovels and picks to defend themselves. But the Spiders were too quick for their small fat legs and cut them down. As the Driders began to wrap and eat their pray, they could clearly see the red falls in the distance. "We are almost their" Mier said cheerfully. "Tonight we dwell in the bleeding falls, But tomorrow we dine in Seraphine!"

Things didn't seem to different. There was definitely a different tone in the air...less balance, but there were still trees and birds. The sun was setting and the first stars were beginning to peek out from their place in the sky. She smiled up to the heavens basking in that moment. To her the world seemed so wonderful. Full of life and mystery. She knew that this was not going to be a fun trip, it was a mission, but she couldn't help but be excited.
She wondered what the others would look like, what they would sound like...how they would act. It was so exciting, she was actually a little frightened....what if these people couldn't be trusted?
She brushed that thought from her mind, if there were any problems she was not alone here.

Roughly half an hour later a black dot appeared, it looked like a squat building. The inn? Al'Turian could only hope. After all, he wanted to get Chandra inside, into the light and protection. He froze a moment later, his ears picking up the distance whinny and thudding that indicated the approach of horses. He jerked into movement, knowing that the Princess would hear the sound too, he roughly pushed her off the trail. He hoped that whoever was coming would be only using the road and wouldn't notice their black forms in the dark of the night.

The Weeping Cave
After four miles the group finally arrived at their new home. It was a Large Black rock cave that seemed to be weeping as it was bent low. It had a wide opening. They were near the mountain area now, somewhere they could call home. The rocky crags behind them were lengthened out for miles, there was a small river 2 miles away and the air was sweet. The group entered the cave, it was long and dark but their eyes were accustomed to darker places than a cave. As they headed deeper into the earth they came upon a stone door with the symbol of a white tree on it, Mier smacked the middle of the tree and it lifted up above them revealing two large red haired spiders, the guard twins, Eol and Aol. They greeted the others and they went inside. There was a large hall with a large rock pedestal lifted above many others, their were 3 corridors leading away, many driders were working, cutting and moving the cave. "So how much is completed?" mier asked Aol as they walked through the hall. "We have started the tunnels" Aol said gloomily. "but we have not had long". "Have you got permission from the queen?" Eol said loudly, many workers stopped and the hall went silent, all eyes on Mier. He smiled. "Yes, this, is our new home!" The hall was filled with cheers.

Re: [OOC] The Comming War
Race: darkling
Age: 19
Sexual Orientation: straight!
Personality: Misunderstood and unfortunately stuck on the wrong side of the fight because of her bloodlines. Generally friendly and caring but if you get on her bad side expect her to hunt you down to hurt you. She is often found questioning herself and her purpose in life.
Appearance:
just incase pic dont work....
http://murasaki-hoshi.deviantart.com/ar ... -144297285
Weapons:double edged and bladed sword. Bow and arrows. always carries a long knife with her, for protection. other small weapons.
Abilities: can materialise anywhere, except for directly in enemy zones. she can materialise anypart of her body, kinda like nightcrawler from x-men or the chessire cat from alice in wonderland! controls the shadows and weather.
Other important information: Born as a true blooded darkling, Bellatrix was expected to abide by the laws of the darklings and fight against the elves, mages and angel types to reclaim their freedom but she never reall understood why she had to fight. She didnt know the reasons for the fights and believed that over time even the fighters theselves had forgotten why they had started fighting in the first place.

There needs to be at least one from each of the three races. If you would like to play the villain, but would like to keep that identity a secret PM me and we will figure it out. The darklings will be what the others will be fighting against and the main villain will of course have an evil plot. I have an idea of what I think should happen with that, but if anyone would like to be the villain than it can be discussed if you would like to take it a different way.
