Introduction
The story begins with a girl who does not have a soul-mark. Is she the beginning to the new revolution that so many people desperately want? Desperately need. The Emperor and his terrifying General are heartless to say the least, their soul-marks are thick, black, like bottomless pits. Of cruelty.
As she befriends and pisses off various characters, they find themselves stuck in the middle of the revolution before they know what's happening. They are met with hostile and ill-favoured manners just as much as welcome arms for being saviours. The myth that there was once a girl born without a tattoo, and she ate people's soul-marks, eating their souls, in hope to gain one of her own, haunts the group, and even amongst their own ranks, they question her.
Love, treachery, sacrifice will all take part in this journey.
Roles:
Male 1- Jace Vallahad, played by eternalmoon.
{I do want him to fall in love with Female 1, despite the fact that he meets soul-mate Female 3}
Male 2- Ray Winters, play by echo-of-daybreak
{If possible twin with female 2???}
Male 3- Slyvester "Sly" Broadsword, played by NewKidOnTheBlock
Female 1- Zanetta Xalvadora, played by xfaithyx123
{The girl with no soul-mark.}
Female 2- RESERVED: CherrySwirl
{If possible twin with male 2???}
Female 3- RESERVED: Lovely Spade
{Soul-mate to Jace Vallahad. Matching soul-marks}
Female 4- Red Linwood, played by Angelika Petrova
Female 5- Alicia Harun, played by Rosaramone
Emperor-
{Evil, cruel, wealthy}
General-
{Emperor's solitary advisor, heartless, power-hungry.}
I said in the rules, I don't have many I swear, I'm more than happy to accept other characters as well, this was just a guideline. But I do need Female 1 filled to make story work. General and Emperor can be left until later on, depends on where the story goes.
And you will need to describe your soul-mark in Description as well as you character, and considering it is a physical representation of their soul, it should reflect their character.
PM me and I can reserve a role for you, or just do a character application if you have one of your own!

Eating the last of his link, he took another, looking over to Zanetta with a smile and a look of mixed love and relief. "Have you heard the stories of the Mother of the Last Revolution?"

She then turned on her back with her hands placed in front of her and a small cute smile on her face as she returned to her peaceful state in dreaming.

"What you seek, shall be found
In a foreign far-off town,
Where you shall meet old friends there,
And one who has strange air;
This is the one, but heed my words,
Your fantasies will become absurd.
For while she saves, raises death,
She will also slay one of your best.
For no normal girl is she,
But the Soul-Stealer lies underneath,
But the worst of all, hear what I say,
Is that you, my boy, will not slay
The girl of heavenly signs above,
For this is the one you shall love."
Sly fell silent. "The old hag was right..."

''Purple hair? Me with purple hair? I-I like my blue hair!!'' She shouted to herself as she tugged on her hair as she some what freaked out. Suddenly her surroundings started to blend together into darkness. She looked at her hands and saw them glowing. She shook them around to make it go away but it didn't. Though she saw nothing but darkness others around her saw her perfectly. She then felt a sharp pain come from one of her hands. She looked at it and the pain continued but as she looked closer her nails started to get sharper, longer and black. Just like her dream. But unlike her dream it was only on her right hand. She blinked as her skin on the same arm started to form patterns that continued to move. But it was not all over her body like her dream. It was like a start of a new appearance or transformation. Suddenly the surroundings returned to normal........but her hand and arm did not.
She then burst into tears both in shock of her arm and terror about it. ''What is happening to me!!? I am normal!!'' She screamed. It was almost in anger. She then charged to the fire and stopped dead near it, looking at the flames. ''I am normal...'' She stated as she shoved her arm into the fire. Instantly the pain got to her and she screaming in pain as her flesh started to peel and flake off. She continued to scream and she did not move her arm away. ''I am normal!!'' She screamed in pain and anger. Her desperation to return her arm to normal had made her mad....

He hugged her.
He wrapped his arms tightly around her, and, he being much stronger than she, kept her away from the flames. "Zanetta...don't do that..." He made a motion to his mark of the Emperor, which, still being shirtless, was plainly seen. "Fire cannot burn away everything." He refused to let go of her, fearing that she would seriously injure herself. He felt fear nearly as equivalent as he had back when he was young...back when he was forced to witness the murder of his family. "I know...it doesn't work like that..."

Her claw-like nails were still there and after a few minutes her arm healed but with scars. But the moving patterns were still there. Moving in all directions, making different images within the lines. Her skin on the arm was a pale purple now from the fresh scarring. After a while her face became disgusted. ''Look at my arm.....moving black lines and a purplish tint to my skin....with few thorn-like horns protruding from m-my bones......'' She wrinkled her nose showing her newly formed fangs. ''I feel the lines moving, like veins bumping blood through my body.'' She then poked on her her horns on her arm that grew from her bones and it drew blood and she sobbed some more. ''What? Now I can't even touch someone without hurting them?'' She then ripped part of her dress and wrapped it around her arm to cover it and left the end hanging so that it was like a long sleeve to hide her claw-like nails.
She sighed with few sobs, she dried her eyes and looked up at Sly and smiled at him warmly. ''I-I am okay now....I think....I just have to accept it right?'' She asked both in sadness confusion.

The words of the sage echoed in his head as he sighed. "Yes...there is nothing you can do now to change...whatever it is that has happened." He gave a smile, hiding his internal fear. He knew that he was the best one of the group...did that mean that he was predestined to die? "Perhaps it is this form that will be the one to slay the Emporer...who knows? Maybe you will return to normal after he is dead." He knew that this could possibly be true; but what then? What if she didn't? "As to the movements within...you will get used to them." He gave an understanding smile, motioning to his Soul-Mark. "I know."
He then looked to Jace, who was still seemingly sleeping. Sly frowned. Jace, he knew, snored in the slightest when he slept. He was now silent, but still breathing, albiet shallowly. Unconciousness. Poison. Sly slowly placed himself before Zanetta, his eyes darting around the forest around them. "Red..." He hissed, making his words as quiet as possible. "...we are not alone." He slowly knelt down as he picked up one of the poision-tipped needles he had set out, eyes never leaving the forest. He stood back up slowly, listening.
He heard a tree silently creak behind him.
With a quick motion, he moved once again, throwing the needle into the forest as an crosbow bolt shot out from a tree. Both items hit their targets, a black-clothed man falling from the tree, dead, crossbow in his hands, and Sly with a crossbow bolt stuck through his arm. If Sly had not moved into the way, it would have torn through Zanetta's heart. Sly looked to the bolt with a grunt of pain, holding his arm steady, then to the body of the assasin. "Check the body!" He commanded to Red, ignoring the wound. "See if he is in the service of the Emporer!"

He was silent for a moment, taking the time to get out what little supplies he had to treat himself. Using one hand, he grabbed a clear vial from the small kit, biting off the stopper, pouring it over his arm, grunting as the clear liquid hissed against the arrwo and wound, bubbling. He then attempted to wrap the gauze, but had much difficulty in doing so. "Besides," He stated, "I do not know how to ride a horse."

''I am sorry for the pain I caused, but if my arm healed in minutes then my blood should do the same for you. I know because you are strong.'' She stated then she ripped part of her dress again and tightly wrapped it around his shoulder. Then she looked at the palm of her hand and it healed in moments and she showed it to him. ''See, you will be fine.'' She smiled then stood up and looked to the direction of Red. ''We will see you soon!'' She smiled cheerfully. Then she looked back to Sly. ''Time to go.'' She stated.

As they headed toward the town, Red undoubtably preparing to pass them up at a moment's notice, Sly turned to Zanetta. "This--" He motioned to his covered wound. "This was not your fault. I moved into the path of that arrow of my own free will, as I will do again and again as needed." He shook his head. "I will not lie, Zanetta, you are a marked woman. You will be attacked by many more men like we were tonight. But as long as I breathe the good, sweet air of the living world, I will not allow anyone to harm you." He took her hand in earnest. "No one. You're much to important to be counted as just another woman walking. You are needed...for the Revolution..." A slight tinge of pink arose in the face of Sly. "...and...to me..."

''Oh, that is good. Well, guess my body forgives me for putting my arm in the fire.'' She giggled. As the moon light shined on her hair you could now instantly notice purple strands in her hair. ''I like myself again.'' She gladly announced. ''But you helped that Sly, for that. Thank you.'' She smiled warmly at him with she poked his unharmed arm and giggled as she skipped ahead.

As they walked, a town came into view in the distance. It was but another town that was forced to submission by the Other Evil One. He gave a "Hmph", his smile flipping into a frown as he saw that the Emperor's men were collecting taxes; hefty ones of unfair value that only funded evil and taken by force. He looked to Zanetta, withdrawing what seemingly looked like a single ninja star from an unknown location of his threnchcoat. "What do you think? Do we lay low?" He flicked the star out in his hand like a fan, giving a smile as six revealed themselves behind the first in a curved line. "Or do we raise a little Hell?"

She then stopped dead near the guards with her hands behind her. One of the guards turned and noticed her and gave a frown as he spoke. ''Take a step back miss, this is none of your concern.'' He stated, his words chimed in his metal head guard. She stayed there then stood in front of the male victim and spoke as she turned her head to him. ''Run along Sir, best you don't get involved. I will handle this.'' She gave a smile to the man as he scrambled away, lucky with his money.
''Sir! Get back! Miss, you are under arrest from intervening in the law. Come quietly or you will be taken down with alot of wounds. Understood.'' He stated.
Then Zanetta smirked. ''What if I do neither?'' She asked.
''You will be sentenced to death.'' He stated.
''Oh, now that one I like.'' She said in a spine curling tone.
''Ma'ma, Come quietly.'' He asked.
Zanetta tapped her chin then tilted her head to him with a wide grin. ''No.'' She then drop kicks him in the face then grabs his silver short sword and stabbed it into his heart and she smirked. ''Eat your heart out.'' She stated.
''Looks like we have a trouble maker, soldiers, take her down.'' Said the captain without emotion.
''Oh, I like a challenge.'' She grinned then she kicked the guard that was next to the now dying one and dismember his leg with great force, almost not quite human for a girl of her size. ''Come and get it boys.'' She stated with a grin, which provoked the guards.
She then clicked her fingers and the arm that was transformed had a blue flame appear on it. ''Oooo, this looks fun to use.'' She then charged in and as the guards surrounded her she twisted her body in a circle and blasted lightning their way. ''Ooooo, power to wield lightning. Nice.'' She giggled.
As she demonstrated such power the captain shouted out. ''It's her! The one without the soul-mark! Make sure you capture her, alive.''
''Damn it.....'' She frowned at the captain. ''I won't go without a fight tin head!'' She shouted.
Then the captain smirked. ''Men, I said keep her alive. But I didn't say don't harm her.''
Zanetta cursed to herself then beckoned the men to come closer. It was obvious as soon as the captain announced her as 'the one without a soul-mark' they seemed frightened.

He gave a sigh. "Amateurs." He picked up two of the short swords from the killed guards, throwing one at a duo of guards that cornered an injured young lad, the spinning blade slicing the neck of one of them. The second looked in shock as his partner fell; a mistake. The second blade went through his eye, the blade piercing the back of the skull, a small ding ringing out.
The ding caught some attention of several more guards, who caught sight of the black-clad figure, and simotaniously paled. "I-It's the Demon!" The Captian growled at the cowardly men.
"You cowards! I'll hang you for treason! It's obviously an impost--"
Before the Captain could finish the word imposter, Sly pointed at the men, giving a one-finger throw at the men. Each one fell, clutching his neck, a poisoned needle in his neck. Sly glared at the man, walking over next to Zanetta. "You were saying?"
The Captain paled slightly himself. "The Demon and the One With No Soul Mark...together..." A weak, cocky smile came to his face. "The Emporer will pay me a fortune. I'll kill you first..." He pointed to Sly. "Then I'll take her."
Sly only shook his head, spying a rather large challenge but a few hundred yards away. "I'll leave this fool to you, my dear." He gave Zanetta a kiss on her cheek, the Captain looking incredulously as he did, then walked over to the challenge he spied, giving a wave and a "Have fun".
Approaching his challenge, a large, burly man the size of three horses, Sly smiled, taking off his coat and tossing it aside, allowing his upper body to be shown, including the mark of the Emporer. He cricked his neck. "I'll settle this the old-fashoined way..."

As if to prove his point, the beast of a man lurched forward with a yell, narrowly missing Sly as he side-steped, kicking the throat of the man, causing a coughing fit from the monstrosity of a human. Sly, while the man coughed, continued on his rant toward the teenagers. "If you all aspire to be warriors, you must be able to fight like warriors!" He gave another kick. "Granted, your aim is well, but have you no respect for a fight of honor between two men?! Have you no honor to slay a man who is committed to battle with a single opponent?!" Turning around, exposing his back to the young ones, he now growled to the man. "Get up."
While he was turned, a sharp-eye of the group noticed the mangled mark of the Emperor on his back. The boy freaked for moment, knocking back an arrow. "He is in the service of the Emperor!" The boy released the string, the arrow flying, stinking itself into the back of Sly, the arrow hitting the shoulder-mark with accuracy. Sly did not flinch, nor did he cry in pain, as the metal head buried itself in the flesh of the male. But he did growl with aggravation. The strip of dress that covered his arm wound burst into flames as a fiery symbol appeared over it, the arm growing in a demon-esqe like mannor. He gave a yell of anger, the flames transferring from his arm to the large male, who screamed as he burned alive.
Sly then turned around, staring at the male who shot him, fury emanating from his very being. "Care to repeat that comment, boy?"

My character is also Spanish so it all fits perfectly!
I know what you mean though, it is hard to find good names to match your character's personality and so forth but once you get it, it is all goood :3
Re: [OOC] Soul-Mark
On another note, I just wanted to say that Sly will probably be one to keep a close eye on our revolutionary 'savior' without a Soul-Mark. Being a man of rumor himself, he pretty much knows any myth or rumor that has come to be. Just wanted to point that out.
Oh! Additionally, can I please, please, PLEASE write an introductory post for my character? It doesn't even have to be in the same place that the introduction will take place in.
