    Spoiler

    Name: Princess Gabriela Von Draculesti, Third of her name, Keeper of the Key, Angel of the Dark, Crown Princess of Romvania

    Gender: Female

    Age: 14

    Appearance

    Image

    Gabriela stands at 5 foot tall and weighs in at no more than 90 pounds. She dresses in what she says is high fashion but is, in actuality, simply a cheap costume from a shop. Gabriela claims that she has dozens of these outfits and that she has no need of anything else. Her eyes are red only through colored contacts and are normally a soft hazel color.

    Biography

    Spoiler

    Gabriela claims she is the princess of a far off land. A land where the rivers are filled with gems and the mountains with gold. She says she came to this land in order to study it and learn what she must to become a proper ruler for her people. And that, once she is coronated, she will judge from her experiences in this land whether her home of Romvania will enter a partnership with the people of Ambrosia.

    This is a lie.

    Gabriela, originally Gabby Conners, is the daughter of a gambling duelist. From an early age she was forced to work around the neighborhood, where the people looked at her with a mixture of pity and disgust, to help her parents make a living. Or, rather, to fuel her father's gambling habit. Her father was a relatively talented duelist but he tended to rely on shaky luck and more often than not broke even or fell into debt. However he knew enough to teach his daughter how to play. And how to cheat.

    He intended for the girl to help him with his, increasingly shady, plans to make more money. As he fell deeper into debt he became more wild, more desperate, and both Gabby and her mother began to fear what the man would make her do.

    Her mother, a rather timid woman, was in secret hiding away money here and there whenever she could scrap any up or sneak a bit from the rare instances of her father ending up in the positive. She wanted to keep her daughter from the criminal, and dangerous, life that her father had planned for her. And so, on her 14th birthday, Gabby's mother gave her the money and told her to run. To get away from her father. There was a tournament for young and talented duelists with the prize of a scholarship to a prestigious school. Gabby's mother convinced the girl to sneak out, get some cards, and enter the tournament.

    Gabby reluctantly obeyed and, thinking no tournament would let someone dressed in rags duel, first bought a cheap costume and gathered up enough cards for a deck. She did decently well but it seemed clear that she wasn't going to win the entire thing. Desperate, Gabby used some of the techniques her father had shown her and cheated her way to the top. Absolutely dominating the competition.

    She decided to remake herself anew in this new school. Gabby Connors was dead. Long live Princess Gabriela.

    Personality

    Spoiler

    Gabby was a polite and rather unassuming girl. Who harbored guilt over cheating. Who didn't believe that she deserves to be among all these elites in this incredible school. A girl who feared her true nature being discovered. Who wanted to make friends but had no idea how to do so and wanted nothing more than to separate herself from her past life as much as possible.

    But this isn't the story of Gabby. Not anymore.

    Gabriela is a pompous young lady. One who is used to getting what she wants and believes that others are merely there to put her on a pedestal. She craves being praised and will go out of her way to stand out for this reason. She says she doesn't mind stepping on those lesser than her to rise up. Though she is, of course, far too proper and regal to do such a thing. Despite her arrogant and outgoing attitude Gabriela doesn't seem to be entirely unkind. She may belittle people but she doesn't want anyone to be hurt in any way. She says that she is looking after her "flock" and that it is only proper to make sure those beneath her are healthy. Any act of kindness on her part are often followed by some line about how it is only because of her superior position and genetics. For she was born for greatness and nothing can possibly stop her.

    Deck

    Spoiler
    Servants of the Dark: Wights, of course. Gabriela's deck consists mostly of cards that feed off the Monsters in order to put herself at an advantage. Cards such as Chaos Burst and cards to send the Wight Monsters to the Graveyard. The only extra deck she employs are Fusion Monsters, notably Dragonecro Nethersoul Dragon. But her true Ace is the King of the Skull Servants.

    Duel Skill: Give Yourself To The Divine Demon: All Monsters in the Graveyard are treated as Skull Servant for one turn.

    -Claims she has Dark Familiars that follow her and do her bidding. This is her main excuse as to why wherever she lives seems to always be clean.

    -Is terrified her father will find her and make her do his bidding. And that she'll cheat again and become the same as him.

    -Often wonders if this whole thing wasn't an elaborate plan by her father.

    Biography

    Spoiler

    “You see, love is a strange thing; though that doesn’t matter for this story.”
    Once upon a time there was a beautiful young witch named Daphne. She was a curious girl who liked to stray out of the swamp to see the world outside. It was on one of these adventures she met Phoebus, a young man who was as handsome as he was arrogant. He tried to add Daphne to his list of conquests, not realizing what she was, and she rebuked him time and time again. Eventually she was attacked and injured by a monster on one of her trips. She would have died had Phoebus not came around. Afterwards he once more attempted to conquer her, though she once more refused. Angered, Phoebus took her by force. As he started to leave, once the deed was done, Daphne caught him off guard and killed him with a spell. Not long after she realized she was pregnant. She attempted to use a curse to abort the baby but for some reason it failed. Believing it meant the baby was protected somehow, she went through with the birth, and Keres was born.
    Her mother wasn‘t a very attentive woman, and seemed to not bother with her much, but Keres didn‘t seem to mind. She was too focused on being fascinating with the strange world around her. She didn‘t quite understand the danger of the world as her mother‘s wards kept the house relatively safe from harm. She was especially fascinated with magic, but her mother seemed adverse to actually teaching her.
    In fact by the time Keres was 7, Daphne had become fed up with seeing the girl, and left her in the house alone one night. She was in a hurry and even forgot to take her hat with, which Keres clung to as some tether to her missing parent. The young girl was unable to fend for herself, and the wards were starting to fail, when a Templar came across her on one of the council‘s rare quests into the swamp. She was brought to the Mage Tower to learn magic, and for the first time in her life she saw the world outside of the swamp.
    “Hello everyone, my name’s Keres! Oh, my hat? Isn’t it cool?”
    When she first was introduced to her classmates Keres was overjoyed. People her sized, it was amazing! She was a bright and cheerful girl and they all seemed to accept her, not caring that she seemed to be different than they were. Though her teachers seemed to treat her with a bit of scorn and distrust, she didn‘t get the same feeling from her classmates and thus was able to have a happy start to her schooling. She proved to be an adapt pupil, the first of the children to exhibit potential to connect with a specific element, something that usually happens in the later years. It wasn‘t until she was ten that things started to take a turn for the worst...
    “No...I’m not like that.”
    She was playing with some other children as usual, when one of the older kids, as this was the age they started to mingle with a different group than normal, came to her and accused her of being a witch. Keres, not understanding the problem, told them her mama was one.
    The boy then started to call her horrible things, saying how witches were evil people who cursed others and that all her friends must be under her spell. More and more children began to come to her and agree with the boy and soon enough even her friends left her side, saying all sorts of lies about the things she made them do. Keres went, crying, to the teacher. Who did the bare minimum to get the other students to focus on something else.
    The next few years of Keres‘ life was being the butt of jokes, being tripped, having her hair pulled, and being all around excluded and bullied.
    Upon entering her awkward teens, Keres started to become used to the treatment, and tried her best to avoid trouble. People seemed to have gotten bored of directly teasing and attacking her, and she sort of faded from everyone‘s minds. She still got fearful glances and whispers, and the occasional taunt or prank when people felt bored, but for the most part they just ignored her. She did her best to focus on her studies and became extremely proficient. However she never got much praise, and what praise she did get she tried to deny so that people wouldn‘t take notice of her.
    “If that’s how it’s going to be, I have no place here.”
    Eventually she gave up on the school. They stopped teaching her more advanced classes at a certain point, seemingly not wanting her to learn too much. She discovered that the Templar that had found her wasn‘t supposed to bring any students back with him from the swamp, and that he had died when she turned 14. She started to realize the school wanted nothing to do with her, and she was just there to keep her out of trouble and so they could monitor her actions. After being taught the same basic information for the third year in a row, Keres decided that enough was enough. She managed to leave the Tower at age 16, though admittedly they didn‘t try very hard to keep her there. What she didn‘t know, at first since she was able to discover it eventually, was a group of Templar was ordered to follow her until she reached the swamp and kill her if she seemed a threat. It was a harrowing journey and she was forced to rely on help from a traveling band of mercenaries who, to her surprise, seemed to be fine with her joining their group as they traveled north. Several of them died along the way and she eventually parted with them to go to her home in the swamp.
    “...”
    Keres fought off the monsters that had taken residence in her home, and used her magic to re-start the wards her mother had placed, and began life in the swamp. Her mother had left behind a large library, and she spent much of her time reading it and writing her own thoughts, studies, and theories down in journal after journal. There were many times she grew depressed that she would never really make a difference, and that her work wouldn’t amount to anything.
    Eventually she found a stray cat who had managed to avoid being eaten by a zombie by trapping it in a mud pit. She named it Lucky and took care of it. By this point she had all but stopped speaking, and her outer appearance had taken on a rather uncaring and lifeless look. However she grew to love this cat and it invigorated her to keep up with her studies.
    “Perhaps things can be different now.”
    One day she woke up to see Lucky staring at her, standing on her chest. She watched him quizzically as he jumped off the bed and towards the door. She got dressed and followed her out, to the edge of her ward, where she discovered a spirit floating there. It introduced itself as a spirit of Water, and insisted that she make contact with them. Once she did it explained to her that she was one of the Chosen, the Chosen of Water in fact. And that she was meant to save the world.
    A small spark of hope flared within her, and a passion she forgot existed within her soul surged to the forefront of her mind. She realized that she had a chance to do something to change her fate. She began to practice more magic, trying to grow used to working with the spirit, who she named Flux, and prepared supplies for what she expected was going to be a grand journey.

    Personality

    Spoiler

    Keres is a quiet girl. She is quite calm, and able to adapt to many situations. She seemed to be awkward and twitchy around people, due to her past, and while she doesn’t try to ignore others at times it can seem like she’s being cold or aloof. In fact she almost always has a dull, bored, expression on her face. She does everything somewhat slowly, carefully, afraid to make a mistake or cause anyone trouble.
    However she’s quite helpful, and actually fairly sociable when she feels comfortable. She can’t stand to see people in pain, physical or emotional, and always goes out of her way to talk to those that seem to be having some sort of problem. This can be off-putting to people due to how she has a semi-mechanical way of talking and expressing herself.
    There are many times Keres simply forgets to speak, used to not having to, and this can lead to her not getting why people don’t understand what she’s trying to accomplish. She also doesn’t like being disturbed if she’s focused on something, and struggles not to get angry at those who unknowingly distract her.
    She’s an avid reader and writer and tends to go out of her way to read a book she discovered, sometimes in the middle of a conversation. She also has a tendency to write all her experiences and discoveries in her journals. This holds true for meeting new people, seeing new spells, and fighting new monsters.
    Analytical about many things, she can get lost in her theories and observations quite often. As she grows more used to talking she winds up saying seemingly odd or far-fetched things. No theory is too strange for her to consider and she has an extremely open mind about things.
    Ironically, though you wouldn’t guess it by looking, there’s a fire deep inside of Keres. She has hope, and determination, and a passion that can rival anyone else. She refuses to give up once she has a task and will follow her path with a strong and dedicated purpose that can border on zealously at times. She believes that anything is possible with hard work. However this belief is fragile, despite how strongly she feels, and can quite easily be bruised, if not beaten down entirely, with repeated failure or upon witnessing multiple acts of evil, greed, and other negative emotions.

    Skills

    Spoiler

    -Magic Focus: Keres’ training in only magic means that she’s capable of more diverse magic than others might.
    -Waterbending: Using her magic, Keres can move water to use it as a weapon. Usually this is in the form of a whip, or a torrent of water, but it has other applications. Limited in that it needs water around to use, and the amount of water can change the effectiveness. Her main offense. However it can also be used to move short distances. Usually can’t control more than around 100 gallons of water, and the more she controls the more strain it puts on her.
    -Liquid Relief: Can soothe injuries to dull pain, and temporarily stop bleeding.
    -Illusions: Still not as strong as she’d like, Keres can make the opponent see an image and/or hear a sound that isn’t there. Can only target one at a time, and depending on the target’s will power it may fail. [


    -Keres is a skilled cook, able to make meals out of not many ingredients. Though she’s used to cooking for just herself.
    -Able to identify edible berries, plants, fungi, etc.
    -Has a good singing voice. Though she's very much out of practice, having only occasional sang for a cat.
    -An adapt dancer, a book about dancing being one of the few non-magic or nature related book in her house.

    Spirit Information

    Spoiler

    DornwYo.jpg?1

    2 feet in length. Sometimes shrinks or grows six inches.

    Personality: While Flux doesn’t really speak much, they are a very curious creature. You can often find them closely observing something or someone, sometimes for hours on end. Has extreme patience but no real concept of time, so they can come off as scatterbrained or irresponsible at times. They seem to really enjoy the world, and see beauty in many simple things. Flux is the most talkative when they’ve found something they think is particularly inspiring. Which tends to be something unusual like a moss covered stone or a pile of dead leaves.

    Skills: Transfered: When Keres absorbs Flux, she simply gains a boost in her abilities. This is only temporary, lasting upwards to five minutes at a time, but it can provide much needed strength to her spells.
    Personal: Flux can, a few times a day, touch non-spirits and Chosen and cause them to have a brief, intense, hallucination.

     

     


  3. Rona, The Indomitable Wyvern Rider

    Spoiler

    Identity Information

    Spoiler

    Name: Rona Valgtut
    Age: 17
    Gender: Female
    Birthplace: Jouruun (in a smaller city near the capital)

    Appearance

    Spoiler
    The Image

    A tall woman, Rona stands at 5‘9“ and weighs 155 lbs. Generally dresses in bare minimal, due to being sensitive to the heat, though does have armor she wears to battle. Does not have heels. Not quite as undressed as image implies but it's close.

    Personality

    Spoiler

    Those who meet Rona would often think of a single word. Indomitable. She comes off as fearless and reckless as she jumps into battle without a second thought. A proud warrior that refuses to surrender no matter the odds. Rona almost always has a smile and is quick to laugh. She doesn’t seem to worry about how she looks or what others think about her in general. A helpful young woman who always goes out of her way to make sure that the people around her are happy and healthy.
    At least that’s what she wants you to think.
    Rona’s recklessness comes from forcing herself to act without thinking in battle in order to not retreat. For if she takes too long thinking about the battle her cowardice will win out and she’ll turn tail. Her smile is to cover the anxiety and paranoia that rages in her mind. This anxiety can crop up at random and is almost always present in some minor degree. She often avoids situations when not on the battlefield and will go out of her way to avoid any direct confrontations.
    Rona thinks very little of herself. She’s a failure and a weakling. Someone who should have died but was not allowed to. Thus she has very little feelings of self-worth. Her only purpose, she feels, is to make life better for those around her in whatever way she can.
    Though she often doubts she’s even doing this right. Thus she keeps on a smile whenever she can and the moment she feels herself start to slip she’ll leave the situation.

    Biography

    Spoiler

    Born to a family of renowned Jouran soldiers; it was expected that Rona, too, would excel. When her aptitude for magic, and desire to learn it, was learned her father, a man who firmly believed that martial combat was the true path, strictly forbade her from so much as looking at a book of magic. Her training began at a young age and it was harsh from the start.
    Constant combat practice, she could suddenly be attacked during a meal, grueling physical fitness, and harsh punishments were most of Rona’s life. She wasn’t particularly adapt at fighting in the way her father wanted and so, while she did become quite skilled in combat, she was never the prime fighting force that was expected of her.
    She had always been a timid child and so there was a focus on tearing that away when it came to her training. If she were to flinch, hesitate, or turn her back on her foe (which included having her back towards one of her older siblings or parents at any time) she was punished. Usually with either beatings or being left out in the cold, basically naked, over night.
    Rona was put in a squad under command of her father, comprised of mostly Wyvern Riders, at the earliest possible age (14). She was better than many of the others of her experience level but her father refused to acknowledge her until she had surpassed even the best soldiers they had.
    During a skirmish near the border their squad was pinned down by a group of Archers. Rona’s father ordered her to charge the Archer’s formation and scatter, or kill, them. She refused at first but quickly caved to his shouting and took off.
    Her, and her Wyvern, Cormag, were greatly injured during this. She refused to turn back though and continued to fight on until she passed out from blood loss. Her wyvern, a surprisingly kind and intelligent beast, knew that taking her back to her father would only result in punishment. So he took her southward, away from the fighting, away from everything, into Aerora.
    Rona was dying. She could barely stay concious for longer than a few minutes and everywhere they went the people seemed to turn them away. Still Cormag flew on, despite his own injuries, until he just couldn’t anymore and collapsed in a field.
    This is when the leader of the Iron Falcons, Leon, came upon them and helped them get the medical care they needed.
    Rona, who knew she couldn’t return home, then swore her life to Leon. She had nothing, she WAS nothing, so she had no qualms about doing this even for a person she knew nothing about.

    Biography

    Spoiler

    Naomi's childhood was rather unusual. She basically raised herself from the moment she was old enough to walk and talk. Her parents would often disappear for long stretches of time and often only came back briefly before going off to more “adventurers". They would often bring Naomi books, particularly fairy tales, and other such things to keep her amused.
    Her house was near the outskirts of the city and, as her parents usually came and left at night, not many people even realized that they were leaving a child for long stretches of time.
    Thus Naomi grew up mostly by herself, until her 10th birthday, when her parents brought her a young Rhyhorn to play with. She grew attached to this Pokemon and she seemed to be content with her simple life.
    And then her parents didn't come back for even longer than normal. Police came to her house and informed her that her parents, who were evidently infamous thieves, were arrested and she was going to be sent to live with her grandparents.
    Naomi had never met her grandparents but she knew they were farmers. Which meant hard work. And waking up early in the morning. Naomi wanted nothing to do with that.
    This is when she learned about the Korova Region's funding of starting trainers to take on their Pokemon League. Naomi didn't care much for challenging Gyms but it seemed to be a better life than farm life. And so she took the first boat to Korova she could find, with her loyal Rhyhorn by her side.

    Personality

    Spoiler

    Naomi has a chronic case of excessive chill. She goes through life without worrying about much. She's the type who would be friends with everyone but not necessarily close friends with anyone. She doesn't like having to work or even really be awake for long periods of time and the only time she gets upset is when being forced to go beyond her limit of activity.
    However she is quick to forgive and forget, especially as she's quite un-observant and can easily literally forget what is going on.
    Oddly she tends to enjoy scary situations and, while she is difficult to scare, she seems to be fascinated by spooky things.
    When it comes to other people she doesn’t particularly judge for any reason except if they are harming others. She dislikes this greatly and, if taken too far, can be spurred to action very briefly.
    She loves Pokemon greatly, believing them to be in many cases better than people, and dislikes forcing them to do anything. She won’t battle if her Pokemon doesn’t want to.

    Gwen is fairly average height, standing at 5‘5“  (165 cm) but weighing only 88 pounds (40 kg). Though “standing" is a bit of a misnomer. For Gwen doesn't have feet. Five inches (13 cm) of her feet and ankles are completely missing, replaced with a strange purplish smoke. She is constantly hovering so her practical height is actually 5‘10“ (178 cm)

    The gems around her waist flash when she's feeling especially emotional or in pain, and they begin to look dull when she weakens greatly.

    Personality

    Spoiler

    Gwen is a kind and mature young lady. She always tries to find the best solution to any problem and goes out of her way to help out anyone in need. She believes that every Gijinka have something to offer to the world and she desires to help them do it as long as it’s positive. She is still young, however, so she has a playful side as well. She tends to tease others often and is always quick to laugh and make little jokes. Though her jokes tend to be on the corny side. Her favorite opener in battle, for instance, is “You don’t have a Ghost of a chance”. She thinks this is funny and a little cool, and she can get flustered when people point out how bad it is.
    Motherly is a good word for Gwen, she fusses and frets over those who are hurt, sick, or otherwise feeling down. And she always tries to give advice and a positive outlook on things.
    She’s quite sensitive, as well, and it can be easy to upset her. She doesn’t do well with straight up insults, though she puts on a brave face. She’s easily embarrassed and flustered at affection at times, even if she herself is affectionate towards others often.
    When things go badly she can become somewhat disheartened and sad. However she tries to keep an optimistic attitude and roll with the punches.
    Speaking of punches, Gwen doesn’t like physical confrontation and tries to avoid it. But there’s an angry switch in her that when flipped means she’s not gonna put up with your s*** anymore and she’ll let you know.

    Biography

    Spoiler

    Gwendoline was born and raised in Alpha. The oldest child of five, she was always taking care of the younger children. She especially made sure to keep them from exploring too deep into the caves. Though one day she had to chase a child farther into the cave than she was supposed to go. What happened there is a memory that has been lost to Gwen but it still troubles her to this day, despite that the child was safe afterwards. She never got too far into the rivalry with Omega. Or at least she didn’t think so. She has trouble even remembering what the rivalry was about, let alone how she felt about it. But she doesn’t let that bother her, if it was important she’d surely remember.
    She left Alpha at a somewhat early age, hesitantly leaving the young Gijinka of the village to set out on her own. She had wanted to get stronger to be able to protect the village from some threat that she was sure it was facing but couldn’t quite figure out what threat.
    She decided to become a Chaser because it would be the best way of getting stronger, and her plans are to become a Legend and make this dangerous and often in turmoil region safe for all.
    She has a particular interest in Giratina, whenever the Dragon is brought up she feels an urge to defeat it totally. If you ask her why she’ll just shrug and say “It just feels like what I’m supposed to do.”

    Evil Eye: An eye-like shape appears above Gwen's head, mentally latching onto an opponent and dealing damage directly to their Aura unless they break free in time. It is even more powerful if the target is afflicted with an ailment. (Hex)

    Dance of the Forest Spirits: Gwen can summon a flurry of leaves, surrounded by a slight dark energy, to launch at the foe. These leaves can be controlled at will and have slight tracking capabilities. However the longer they go on the more energy Gwen expends and the weaker they get. (Magical Leaf)

    From the Darkest Corner: The usually composed Gwen also has a bit of a dark side deep in her mind, and she can tap into this to strengthen her attacks almost two-fold for a brief period of time. This wears her out if used too long, or too often, however. (Nasty Plot)

    Share The Load: An unusual power that, when Gwen makes eye contact (or an equivalent if no eyes exist), she can either share her health, or sap the health, of her target. Which depends on the amount of health they both have, until they are even in health level. (Pain Split)

    Dancing Flames: A fire of mystical power shoots from the girl and covers the foe in its flame, weakening their special attack through its magical properties. (Mystical Fire)

    Plague Roulette: By making contact with her target, Gwen can afflict them with a random status ailment, though the effects are weaker than those brought on by normal attacks.

    “There’s nothing I can’t do with heart and uhh determination! Come at me I’ll take you all on! Stop laughing!”

    Name: Mackenzie “Mac"
    Species: Heliolisk (Helioptile)
    Gender: Female
    Age: 15
    Favored Legend: Groudon

    Appearance

    Spoiler

    iVtasBH.png?1

    At 5‘2“ and 100 pounds Mac is about average sized, if slightly smaller. The frills on the side of her head aren't just decoration, they're actually able to detect shifts in weather and Mac can move them around slightly.

    Personality

    Spoiler

    Larger than life is one way to describe her. A complete airhead is another, more accurate, description. Mac has a very weak survival instinct and a serious chip on her shoulder. She likes to fight and especially likes to get up close and personal. Despite that her species being better at a different fighting style. But she’s not about to let that stop her; she’s determined to defeat all her foes and have the grandest adventure of all time! She likes to talk about Legendaries and can sometimes be a bit chatty. She’s relatively friendly though also a little competitive and confrontational. She speaks her mind no matter who it is to, which can get her into a lot of trouble in a world such as this.
    She’s brave, reckless, and loyal. If you earn her trust she’ll stick to you and protect you from anything that comes your way. Even if you’re actually much stronger than her. She tends to act tough. That isn’t to say she isn’t tough. She actually is quite hardy but she’s clearly not the strongest Gijinka around.
    She doesn’t like when people make fun of her and can be a bit paranoid about others laughing, sometimes assuming they’re laughing at her. She’s quick to start a fight but also quick to apologize after a misunderstanding. She has total faith in herself and those she calls friends and truly believes that with determination and friendship she can do anything.
    As mentioned before she truly is an airhead, and subtlety tends to go over her head. She’s not completely gullible though, and if she’s takes a moment to think, she often realizes when she’s being straight up lied to. Unfortunately she tends to act on instinct and trust her heart more often than not.

    Biography

    Spoiler

    Mac was born in Oasis and she never really left it. She had a few friends but none of them seemed to share her fascination with legends and battles. She often got into trouble for fighting but she would still sneak out to seek fights anyway. One of these times, when she was merely 11, she got into it with a much older Gijinka, a Primeape with an attitude problem. He was about to seriously hurt her when a flash of thunder struck and took the Primeape down in one shot.
    Mac was in awe, and when she saw the man who had saved her she was sure it was Raikou. The Legend gave a grin and flashed her a piece sign before running off at extreme speed.
    Ever since then her love of Legends grew and grew, and she became almost obsessed with studying them. She came to learn of many different Legends, from the mysterious and alien Deoxys to the ancient force that was Regigigas. She took a particular interest in Meloetta, as Mac was a lover of music, but decided that the one she really wanted to take down was Groudon, for the challenge.
    Of course she still wished to meet Raikou one day to thank him, as well as meet every single Legend in existence. Giratina terrifies her however, but even that one she wants to face eventually.
    She decided to become a Chaser, something her parents weren’t too keen on, especially after Volcanion’s body was discovered in their very city. But Mac was determined, she would set out and achieve her dreams no matter what!

    Evolved Form

    Personality

    Spoiler
    Curiosity killed the cat, the phrase is known far and wide. However the second part is less so. “But satisfaction brought it back". Dora wants to know all there is to know about the outside world. And every bit of knowledge gained gives her incredible amounts of joy. She's a kind and easily-amused young lady. The world is one huge wonder to her, every bit of it more exciting than the previous.

    She has determination and dedication, but also is quite easily distracted. She bounces from one thing to another in rapid succession. Dora doesn't really know anything about tact and personal space, and will often have to be told repeatedly she can't just run up to a person and ask about some anomaly about themselves.

    Forgetful about certain things, such as meeting places and directions, but Dora has a great memory for trivia and facts about people. She likes to see people smile, and she herself is almost never seen without a wide smile on her face. Dora radiates a peaceful and gentle nature, but she's not opposed to getting dirty and having a fight or two. As she sees it as just another way to learn, and experience life.

    She wants to become a famous adventurer, not for the usual satisfaction of fame, but because she desires to be an inspiration to everyone who wants to travel. It's not easy to upset her, and she seems to always look for the bright side of things, and the good points in any point of view or personality. As she realizes she has a lot to learn about the world, she can be somewhat gullible when people tell her things, though she's never upset when she learns they were false. Though she can be quite disappointed that her new knowledge was untrue, and her disappointed face is something many would want to avoid experiencing.

    Biography

    Spoiler

    Dora was raised in Merm, as the small kingdom's princess. Her father spoiled her, and protected her, but was often overly stifling. She wanted to explore, to learn about the people outside of Merm. But he was having none of that, he would get angry whenever she brought it up. Secretly she took in knowledge about the outside world, finding artifacts and books. And on multiple occasions talking with the rare traveler in secret.

    As she got close to her 11th birthday, her mother, who was sick and they were unsure if she'd survive, admitted a truth to Dora. She wasn't their child. She had come to them, at age 3, brought by a traveler who had a shaky friendship with the king of Merm. Her real father was a Lucario, and her mother a Quagsire. She should have realized this, seeing as neither of her adoptive parents were Quagsire, but she never had reason to suspect.

    Her mother urged Dora to leave, especially as her father was getting more and more isolationist. Dora accepted, and left. She decided that she'd try and find the legends, as the stories of Chasers were the most fascinating to Dora. She specifically wanted to find Jirachi. One, because they seemed like a fun Gijinka to make friends with, and two, because she thought maybe they'd be able to heal her mother's sickness.

    She set out, but didn't get far before she wound up in deep trouble. Dangerous Gijinka attacked her and the guardian her mother sent with her, wounding the guardian critically. But she was saved by a stranger, and the guardian urged them to take her away and keep her safe. It was clear the guardian didn't want to send her with some random Gijinka, but they believed themselves unable to protect her. And thus Dora has been spending the past year with this strange Gijinka, her curiosity only growing stronger.

    Spoiler

    Personal Information

    Spoiler

    Name:  Morgan Reaperson

    Gender: Female

    Age:  19

    Species:  Human...? (explanation in bio)

    Appearance

    Spoiler

    xKZSjwu.jpg?1

    Morgan doesn’t look much different than your average human girl. She stands at a somewhat average five foot six inches (168 cm) and weighs in at 125 pounds (56kg). She has various different clothing she wears, most of it light and comfortable, but she usually wears black and always is wearing her pointed hat. There’s a strange shine in her eyes, akin to that of a cat, that can be seen when the light hits it just right.

    Biography

    Spoiler

    Morgan is the daughter of a very dangerous man. A wizard named Grimsley who has transcended humanity to gain the powers of a lich. He has lived hundreds of years by using this power and had a considerable fortune when he moved to America. Once there he started an organization with the simple goal of world domination. It was long thought that he wouldn’t be able to have a child and yet, through some magic ritual he doesn’t discuss with anyone, his then wife was impregnated with a child, Morgan.
    It’s unknown for sure what race Morgan is. As her mother was human and Grimsley was supposedly also human the best guess is she’s the same. But it’s not a certainty.
    Morgan’s mother died shortly after the birth. From then on Morgan was the center of Grimsley’s world. She had him wrapped around her finger and was given literally everything that she could ever have wanted. When she got old enough she started to take part in the “family business”.
    Morgan was adapt at magic, possibly would be even more so than Grimsley with time. And she used it to good effect, taking over several other similar organizations through force.
    However Morgan was horrible with money. She just couldn’t stop buying and buying and buying. Eventually even Grimsley had enough and cut her off. She was planning a massive plot to steal all the money of one of the smaller countries when she was contacted. A mysterious message telling her about a Secret Cup tournament being held that she was invited too.
    Thrilled at the prospect of all that money, with her eyes on the prize of a massive spending spree, Morgan took off at once.

    However as the tournament turned upside down, and the host of the tournament tried to kill them, Morgan fought back with all she had. Almost destroying her body in the process. However, before the final blow was struck on either end, the world itself seemed about to shatter, and Morgan was swept up into a strange rift.

    Personality

    Spoiler

    Extremely selfish. Everything belongs to Morgan and screw you if you think otherwise. A total brat, but a smart brat. She has been known to have a bit of a temper at times but experience has taught her that it’s better to be sweet and charming to get what she wants. She isn’t above being  aggressive when necessary however. She truly does thing that she deserves the best, always, and she doesn’t mind letting you know it.

    Strangely innocent. Morgan knows practically nothing about romance and doesn't quite understand the concepts of love and lust alike. Probably due to being sheltered by her father. Dirty jokes and flirting will go right over Morgan's head and she doesn't grasp the fact that her sweet and charming act can appear as such.

    That being said, Morgan is quite easy to offend and gets genuinely hurt when people are mean to her. This is quite hypocritical of her as she doesn't mind doing similar to others, but as stated earlier Morgan is selfish like that and doesn't really care.

    Morgan will get very attached to someone if they are interesting enough and help her whenever she needs it. But this attachment is usually purely platonic. Morgan likes having friends and being social, as long as she doesn't have to give them anything.
    Curiosity may have killed the cat but that doesn’t stop Morgan. She’s insatiably curious about everything and everyone and loves to learn and see new things. Also quite adventurous, Morgan craves excitement and has often lived life on the edge. She doesn’t worry about the consequences of her actions ever, except when it comes to if it’ll interfere with her goals.

     Weapons/Powers

    Spoiler

    Weapon(s) of choice:  None, unless a fire-resistant broomstick counts.

    Power Array: 

    Levitation: Morgan can “hover” several feet above the ground and travel at running speed in this fashion. She usually does this while sitting on her broomstick for “effect”

    Skeleton Giant: As the name suggests, this is Morgan’s ability to create a twelve foot Skeleton out of magic, which has superhuman strength and wields a large bone-club. It’s not very fast and can only follow basic commands. Overtime it can reassemble itself when broken but not nearly instant.

    Metal as f***: Morgan’s signature ability, a magic that summons and uses flaming skulls as a projectile. They explode upon impact and Morgan can have five at once. They hover around her when not being thrown.

    Frenzy Plant: Morgan can create thick magical roots which come from the ground that she can control to encircle, crush, or just slam into, her opponents.

    Witchcraft: These are merely examples of what Morgan can accomplish with magic. As in Smash she's less limited than other places.

  7. "You have been Chosen"

    As you hear these words your thoughts immediately turn towards the myths. A prophecy that states that, when the world needs them most, 9 heroes will be chosen by the Elemental Spirits to fight evil itself. In the form of Demon Gates hidden throughout the land. Wicked contraptions that connect the world of Fantalius to the Demon Realm. For the past two-hundred years Fantalius has been dying. Monsters, evil humanoids, and worse have control of the land. The common folk are forced to cower in their cities, traveling only by protected caravans. While adventurers can travel as long as they keep their wit about them, it's a constant struggle against death just to make it to the next city. However you, and 8 others, have been given a chance, and a destiny. If you take it upon yourself it is guaranteed to be an adventure full of risk. However if you succeed in destroying the Demon Gates and bringing peace back to Fantalius you will be hailed as heroes.

    You are The Chosen. Now step forward, brave adventurers, and embrace your destiny!

    Rules

    Spoiler

    1. All Site rules apply

    2. Character death can happen. This is the warning. By joining you agree that I may kill your character at any time (I will of course not do so unfairly)

    3. Everyone is expected to keep track of their inventory and stats. If you do not I shall do it for you and you'll get less than you normally would.

    4. If I tell you information in private repeating said information without my okay will be reason to kick you from the RP

    What is this?

    Spoiler

    More or less it's a Fantasy RP based in the more traditional ideas of fantasy. Dungeons and Dragons, Dragonlance, etc etc. Your characters will generally focus on either magic or physical skills, though each Chosen will have at least a small amount of magic due to the Spirits. Mixed is possible, but also rare.

    The RP will be, as the title suggests, Hardcore. This does not mean you need to be the best writers, or the most detailed. However it does mean that if your character messes up enough they can and will die.

    That's right. Character death will be a very real risk. And you can bet I will be sending challenges your way. Nothing insurmountable, but certainly not going to be winning fights easily.

    Races

    Spoiler

    There are several common races of Fantalius. However several more minor races exist among the people. The common races are as follows:

    Human: Generally fairly sturdy, potential for great strength, balanced all around. This is the most common of the races, and many leaders tend to be Humans. They often have very strong morals and are loyal to their causes. Reaches adulthood at 16 years.

    Elf: Smaller than humans but with more vitality, a sick Elf is a rare sight. They are long living compared to the other races, living 10 years on average for every 1 human year. They count 200 as “adult". Generally more conservative than the other races.

    Orc: Naturally strong, this is a race of warrior people. Proud and determined is the common traits among their kind. Larger than humans, but on average less intelligent and with less varied skills. They are called barbarians by most of the other races, however they often have great connection to the world. They age at a quarter faster rate than Humans. For instance a 12 year old Orc would be 15 in human terms.

    Draken: A rare and elusive race, Draken are a reptilian race who are said to have dragon blood in them. Are around the same size as Orcs. Naturally connected to one of the elements, Draken have the ability to breath some sort of magical attack related to their natural element. Though they struggle with most forms of magic beyond this. Their scales tend to be a color associated with one of the elements. They have the best instincts of all the races, and live about half long as Elves. Though they grow to maturity much quicker, reaching adulthood at 50 years. (Note: If you chose to be a Draken I will be especially harsh on judging your character.)

    Halfling: A race of small folk, not exactly height of Humans, despite the name. They usually stand at around 4 feet tall, however. They are often very social, adventure loving, and liberal folk. They have high potential for learning new skills and are quite nimble. They age at the same rate as Humans but they reach adulthood at 14.

    Dwarf: A sturdy and squat race, similar in height to Haflings but much wider. They tend to be a very stubborn race and the men sport long beards with pride. Even the women have some facial hair at times. They are rumored to have founded Fire magic, though they aren’t very adapt with magic usually. They age at a third the rate of Humans and consider 90 years old to be “true" adulthood.

    Auran: Thought to be somewhat related to Draken. Auran are a tall race whose skin takes on various shades related to the elements. They have strong connection to magic and are said to be the most naturally talented in magic. It’s said that they used to be more common, and were key to forming the initial connection the world had with Spirits. They are sensitive to magic and can become ill in the presence of tainted magic. Auran can choose to stop physically aging after 30 years of life, however otherwise age the same as a Human. (Note: Same with Draken, will be harsh with judging Auran characters)

    Lycan: A race of people who transform into powerful human-animal hybrids. They tend to lurk on the outskirts of society, and can be quite aggressive if provoked. They struggle with containing their animal side and are thus not allowed to stay for long in any city. Not much is known about them, however it's theorized they were created by man years ago. When not in hybrid form they are slightly stronger than Humans, but this strength increases greatly once transformed. (Note: Not allowed for PCs)

    Vampire: A parasitic race that need to feed on blood of other races to survive. If allowed to drain a body completely the victim will rise as a Vampire. They are strong and fast, though not as much as a Lycan’s hybrid form. They are treated even less friendly than Lycans and are not allowed near a city without being watched constantly. Immortal, but killable. They become sick if exposed to sunlight. (Note: Not allowed for PCs)

    Other: Other races are possible, if you talk to me about it, but will not be allowed often.
    All of this isn’t set in stone though, variations are possible. This is more/less a guideline.

    Spirits and Elements

    Spoiler

    The Spirits come from a separate realm, connected to the Mortal Realm. In the beginning it is thought that the Spirits created life in the world and they are generally treated with respect. In their Realm they tend to mix and mingle freely, moving about without any limits. Magic is a natural ability some in the Mortal Realm have. They use the power of these Spirits to shape the world and cast spells. However should they fail in the casting, or get interrupted, there is risk of the magic back-firing on the caster.
    Each Spirit can take many different appearances when interacting with mortals. From a regular person, to a winged human, to a pile of rocks. They tend to vary from 1 to 6 feet in height. They cannot interact with anyone besides fellow spirits or Chosen. However they can become visible or invisible at will.
    They have a special interaction with their specific Chosen. They can be “absorbed" temporarily to give boosts to abilities, unique magic spells, or a special weapon, among other effects.
    There are 9 Elements of magic in Fantalius and they are as follows:


    Earth: The power of the earth itself, pulling strength from rocks and ground. Generally focuses on protection and defense. Common abilities include forming walls and toughening the body.

    Wind: The power of whipping wind.  Generally focuses on movement and travel. Flight, transportation, etc. Common abilities include gusts of wind, and short range teleportation.

    Water: The power of raging water. Also has to do with movement, however it’s a much less focused magic as it deals with other aspects as well. Including illusion and minor healing, specifically regeneration.

    Fire: The power of blazing flames. Focuses on pure destruction. The simplest of the elements, but also the most difficult to control.

    Thunder: The power of storms and energy. Another destructive magic. However it’s a more focused form, though one that can backfire dangerously. It also deals with enhancing the body’s abilities, and various electrical applications.

    Ice: The power of chilling ice. The third and most subtle of destruction magic. Its a slower, more delicate, kind of power. Dealing in freezing and wide-spread attacks as opposed to the the other elements. However many who wield ice have found unusual ways to use this power.

    Light: The holy power of light. A magic said to be linked to the mysterious Gods of the land, who are thought to exist, and created the world and its Spirits, but are otherwise unknown. It deals with healing and protection. Its healing is more powerful than waters, and its protection is weaker than earth’s, less solid.

    Dark: The power of consuming darkness. A rare form of magic that is usually subtle in application. It often deals with necromancy and curses, weakening the enemy and using their own bodies against them. Shadows and hiding is another aspect of this magic.

    Nature: The unrelenting power of nature. One of the more broad elements. It deals with animals and plants. Controlling, summoning, and manipulating them but without destroying nature in the process.

    All elements have potential for offensive presence. The specifics can depend on how each element is interpreted. Flinging rocks for Earth, icicle spikes for Ice, so on and so forth.
    As with Race keep in mind that things aren’t set in stone with how these work. This is more a guideline.

    The World

    Spoiler

    Fantalius is a world that once was a great kingdom of magical power, supposedly connected deeply to the Spirits. However the creation of the Demon Gates by a sect of evil mages caused a rift. Which led to the connection between Spirits and Mortals to be severed. The Council is a group that represent the various major cities of Fantalius that live in the Mage Tower and attempt to protect the land as best they can. Unfortunately this often is just a preventative measure. Providing rewards for adventurers, hiring them for quests, and most often having them protect travelers.

    There are many various kinds of monsters, and barbaric humanoids, across the land that threaten travelers and adventures alike.

    The various islands are mostly connected through great bridges created long ago. However these are often under attack and the guards are constantly at risk of death. If these bridges fall it could become much more difficult for the people of the various islands to get supplies from each other. Which could spell the end for Fantalius.

    Map and Info

    Spoiler

    Please note my map making skills is subpar. This is just to get a basic idea.

    66AUoje.png

    The cities of Fantalius are all similar in how they’re set up. Large walls protecting them, with separation between homes, shops, and other buildings. They tend to have a somewhat grim feel about them, except in certain areas. This is due to how locked tight they tend to be.

    The below are the major cities of the region. There are more smaller cities and towns throughout most of the islands but these are the best known and the most important.

    A. The Bor Mountains. Named after the Orcish word for “Snow” it’s a simple but apt name. The entire island is covered in snow, to the point where it’s hard to travel across it. Snowstorms start up frequently and the people there have learned to tell when one is about to start.
    The mountains themselves are known to be dangerous, and the home to many especially violent monsters. The people who live there are several hardy barbarian tribes who are often at war with each other. It’s said that there is an ancient dragon somewhere in the mountains. Supposedly was the homeland of the Orcs many years ago.

    B. The Restless Marsh. The majority of the island is covered in the swamp called the “Restless Marsh”. It’s a massive area of wetland that has huge, twisted, trees covering it. It’s difficult to travel due to the swampy land, and many are forced to move along the roots of the trees which stick up out of the ground. It’s filled with many dangerous creatures, many of which seem to be strange hybrids and otherwise magically altered beasts. It is said a group of druids and witches make their home here, but most avoid it. The bridge connecting it to Bor has been unattended for years.

    1. Izlaton. The only actual city on the island. It’s more fortified than almost any other city, the walls are high and regularly watched. In fact the guards seem almost overzealous at their jobs, and many of them go without sleep. The only purpose it seems to serve is to provide a safe haven between islands.

    C. Solarus Desert. The island is mostly covered in a large and unrelenting desert. There seems to be some kind of strange magic that makes it day at all times. Thus the sun is constantly beating down on the denizens of the desert. Once you leave the desert this stops so it’s theorized that it’s some kind of curse. If it weren’t for the fact that the desert is full of magical gems that can be used to power spells and magic items it would be abandoned. Nothing but monsters live in the desert, however bandits have taken up residence near the massive lake that provides the only source of water.

    1. Sol. The “sole” city near the Solarus Desert. It’s an odd city in that it not only has a wall, but a roof. A large, wooden, structure covered in a tarp that keeps out heat was created to keep the city in the shade and hide from the unrelenting sun. However this is dangerous at times as it makes it harder to spot attacks. The inside is a surprisingly lively place, with many musicians and street performers. However it is also home to some thieves that prey on those who aren’t paying attention.

    D. Blagos. The entire island is covered in mountains. Paths were carved out many hundreds years ago but they are often in disrepair. Small settlements and cities are scattered among the caves in the mountains, and tend to be nothing more than large caverns. Flying monsters reign supreme here and people cannot stay on the paths for long without being beset by them. However there are important minerals in the mountains that is needed for building, and so the two major cities were devised to make a safe place for miners to do their work.
    The giant volcano in the middle of the island, called “The Doombringer” by the locals always seems at risk of erupting. Though it has never done so in all of recorded history. Locals treat it with borderline worship levels of awe, nonetheless.

    1. Helmfirth. A city of proud and determined workers. Helmfirth is well guarded and the people seem to be extremely stern and unhappy with travelers. However it’s often thought of as the city with the strongest guards. They expect people to earn their keep, and focus on keeping the mines, which are accessed through a tunnel inside the town, open and operational.

    2. Millstone. As opposed to Helmfirth, Millstone is utterly passive. They don’t keep much of a watch, and only do the bare minimum of work. It’s a surprise to most that it even stays in tact but they seem none too worried about the dangerous outside their flimsy wall.

    E. Bresa. A plainsland with rivers crossing all over the island. These rivers are ample fishing ground and Bresa provides a good portion of the food that the rest of Fantalius eats. Because of this many powerful mages are employed to keep the fishers safe. Because the rivers are a double-edged sword of sorts. While it provides quick transport and food, it’s also full of dangerous water monsters that often fight the residents for the fish. There are legends that somewhere deep under the water is a great treasure, but it has never been found before.

    1. Peats. A wholly unremarkable city. Only notable for the position near the bridge and the size relative to the other cities in Bresa. Is also the headquarters for the leader of the mages that protect Bresa.

    2. Stanlow. Named after the master shipwright, Stan. Stanlow is the city that builds most of the boats of Fantalius. It has the highest and strongest walls of any city in Bresa. It’s also the smelliest, always smelling of fish no matter where you go. A relatively small forest of trees is just to the south of Stanlow, one that is kept growing with Nature magic.

    3. Wolfden. The last of the three larger cities of Bresa. It’s named thusly because of the strange guardians they employ. The people have found a way to tame the vicious Mer-wolves that populate the area and use these animals to guard their city. Their city has the weakest walls, as they tend to rely on the wolves to keep them safe.

    F. Flomest. The entire island is covered from one end to the other in trees. In fact even the bridges are partially overrun with vegetation. It is a wild and untamed wilderness and many wild animals make it home. Beyond that are plentiful bestial monsters that are often referred to as the “true kings of the forest”. They have some measure of magical ability but are more or less unintelligent animals. It’s said that an especially territorial group of lycan makes Flomest their home. However attempts to get rid of them have always ended in failure.
    There is much magic in this forest and adventurers have often found themselves bewitched and confused by various natural magics.

    1. The city in the heart of the forest has no official name. And is only referred to as “The Forest”when asked by the residents. Who are a large number of extremely xenophobic elves. If you try and pass from one end of the forest to the other you will find yourself stopped by these elves. They seem to be adamant about no one crossing their territory and are said to have the best archers in the world at ready to slay trespassers.

    G. Qresa. The name is a butchered attempt at Elvish from the first settlers. It’s meant to mean “Golden land” but instead translates to “Dung Heap”. Which is almost more fitting. As Qresa is a land of farmers. The land is perfect for growing crops and grow crops the people of Qresa do well. Unfortunately they are often attacked and raided so they need a steady stream of guards. Even with this often a farm will be overrun and new ones will need to take its place. The massive lake in the middle is somewhat of an enigma. No one has ever actually entered it, and returned. A massive mist covers the water and makes vision over a few feet impossible.

    1. Larnwick. A strange city. But also a totally average city. There seems to be nothing unique about Larnwick in the slightest, besides being larger than average. However it is disturbingly similar to Wicklarn. As in, everything is in the same place, and all the people look identical. Yet the people of Larnwick claim that they’re totally different and that nothing is unusual.

    2. Shell. A city no one knows about. It’s walls are not manned, there is no sign of life. Yet every attempt to enter the city is halted by some unknown means. If you get close enough you can hear noises from inside, but nothing else. No gate is on the walls, and anyone traveling above will report an empty field with a single squat building in the middle.

    3. Wicklarn. A strange city. But also a totally average city. There seems to be nothing unique about Wicklarn in the slightest, besides being larger than average. However it is disturbingly similar to Larnwick. As in, everything is in the same place, and all the people look identical. Yet the people of Wicklarn claim that they’re totally different and that nothing is unusual.

    4. Myyrka. Myyrka is a refreshingly normal city. It’s large, the largest in Oresa, and quite lively. In that there are many many traders of various goods, and a theater that holds plays and events. However the people are extremely paranoid about the lake, and refuse to talk about it. They warm people of leaving the inlet of land that the city rests on, to avoid the lake. Most of the farms exist nearby, though there are some farther away. None get too close to the lake, however.

    H. Oebrushire. Those of Oebrushire are very proud of their name, and will be angered if you pronounce it wrong. The problem arises in that the northern and southern half pronounce it differently. The island is surrounded by a massive mountain, which keeps out most would be invaders. In fact it’s more or less free of monsters. However the hilly land inside is a warzone. The two cities are constantly battling, and anyone who find themselves outside of the main cities are free game for the warriors of either side, as they’ll assume you are from the other side.

    1. Kelna. Pronounces the island “Oh-Bruh-Shire”. They are a startlingly civil and regulated people. They have rituals for every hour that is observed by everyone. This can change and when it is, a letter is delivered to every household with the schedule. They only get riled up when you try to say anything positive about the other side of the island, or if you refuse to follow their strict rules.

    2. Coombe. Pronounces the island “Ooo-Broo-Shire”. A city full of savages who love to behave without regard to their fellow man. However they seem to be extremely close to one another, despite the brawls and insults that are flung. They will only lose their cool when you speak positively about the other side of the island, or if you try to stop them from having fun, or refuse to participate in their current activity.

    I. Haven. The central island of Fantalius. They have the safest and most well protected cities of the land. It is here that supplies from the other islands are brought, and distrubuted to the rest. It’s the home of the Mage Tower, and the Council, and is generally regarded as a holy land. Sadly even this place is not without its dangers and many monsters of all kinds roam the land between cities. It is said a corrupted Celestial roams the land and slays any who cross its path.

    1. The Mage Tower. As it says, the Mage Tower is a massive tower dedicated to mages. The lower floors are a school, which grows more advanced as you go to higher floors. The ground floor is the room people go when they must speak with the council, and also holds the Templar, an order of magic-knights that protect the Council. Every Draken with any magical talent become Templar once they reach the age of adulthood. The top floor is where the Council meets, and is only accessible by being brought there by a Council member.

    2. Kalmaniemi. The city of Auran. A place that has been around since the beginning of time, according to rumors. It’s unique in that it has no walls. But a magical barrier keeps out all evil creatures. It’s home to every Kalmaniemi who has not been sent elsewhere on a pilgrimage to bring back magical artifacts. It holds a massive library with the history of the world, and many other things, as well as a shrine to the Spirits.

    3. Naporia. The largest city on Fantalius. It holds the training grounds for soldiers and adventurers. Thousands live within the city, and it’s patrolled regularly to make sure its safe. Its slums are often raided at seeming random, and its people dragged off. However it’s claimed this is to keep the rest of the civilians safe. And given how many people live there, it’s not questioned. A powerful archmage rules the city with an iron fist. The sewers are often avoided by guards, except to block it off when searching for criminals on the surface.

    J. Dusk. A land of the dead. Not even Dark mages go to this place. A powerful warding spell keeps people away, and no bridge connects it to the rest of the islands. The only knowledge people have of it is the forest of burned trees that greet the few travelers who attempted to land there.

    What I expect from you

    Spoiler

    This will be a more hardcore RP, and I expect people to be able to be okay with losing a fight, and even a character, if they take wrong/stupid actions too much at the wrong time. I won't be going around killing people willy nilly but you have to understand this isn't an RP where you're superhumans. Above average, perhaps, but not epic level.

    I also expect you to be able to work with me on things. Be it something related to your character, or simply talking to me about what is wanted in a fight.

    Something to note that for the most part beyond a few actions if you want to write more in a fight, feel free to ask me what the outcome of a certain action will be. However if you ask, and I answer, you must do said action. No asking to get an idea of what would happen just to avoid a screw up. Except in possible specific cases.

    Application Format

    Spoiler

    Please Spoiler the whole thing, plus put spoilers where asked at least, and anywhere else you feel necessary. Feel free to fancy it up if you feel like it but make sure to include all information.
    It’s important to keep in mind your characters will only be somewhat above average. Meaning you’d be able to fight several soldiers on your own if you were smart and careful but most likely would need to rest and heal afterwards.

    Name: What’re you called? Feel free to add nickname.
    Age: Don’t be too far under adulthood, however any age above that is fine. Just remember an old person will have some difficulties physically.
    Gender: You know what this is.
    Race: See the Race section. Ask if other race is desired.
    Element: See the Spirits/Elements section. If you want an element another RPer wants as well you will either have to compete or work it out with them. Again, only one of each Element.

    Appearance: Spoiler this. Either an image or a paragraph of description. Make sure I can get a clear idea what the character looks like. Add height and weight and any differences between image and actual character, if there’s an image.
    Personality: Spoiler this. Two paragraphs minimum. That’d be about 8-10 lines or so.
    Biography: Spoiler this. Two paragraphs minimum. Again about 8-10 lines. However if you can explain everything well enough in a single paragraph I will allow it. Make sure to explain how they met their Spirit. All the Spirits came to the Chosen between one week and one day ago, appearing out of thin air and telling them who they were, and to make contact with them to seal the partnership.
     

    Spoiler this section of three as "Skills and Equipment"
    Combat Skills: What strengths does your character have? If magic, what is their primary type of magic? What do the excel at? What kinds of weapons do they wield? Remember that most will focus either on magic or martial mainly. Any specific types of spells?
    Non-Combat Skills: Things like fishing, tracking, lock picking, and other such things go here. Don’t go overboard.
    Equipment: What does your character have for equipment. Weapons, some potions, armor, etc. You will be provided with basic equipment at least.

    Other: Anything else goes here.

     

    Spoiler all of this as "Spirit Information"
    Name: Spirits don’t have their own name. Your character gave them this when they became Chosen.
    Appearance: Spoiler this. What form do they take? Keep in mind this form is usually incorporeal to all but the Chosen and other Spirits. Either an image or a paragraph of description. Include height, somewhere around 1-6 feet tall.
    Personality: Spoiler this. What does the Spirit act like? Upon entering the Mortal Realm, spirits gain a mind and will of their own and develop somewhat simplistic personalities. Only one paragraph needed.
    Transfered Skill: What skill/ability do they grant to their Chosen when they merge with them? It’s usually minor, a boost to physical abilities, a new spell, or weapon, etc.
    Personal Skill: Spirits can do minor things on their own. Including small scale spells, and attacks.
    Other: Anything else you want to add?

    Accepted Applications

    Spoiler

    Chosen of Nature: Anastacia, Nai

    Chosen of Fire: Reinaan, Andx

    Chosen of Light: Kha, Renegade

    Chosen of Earth: Ryia, Skaia

    Chosen of Dark: Ayden, Cherz   Ay

    Chosen of Water: Keres, Cow

    Chosen of Wind: Quali, Aix

    Chosen of Thunder: Lindow, Hollow

    Chosen of Ice: Gilly, Sethera

    And as mentioned it would be limited acceptance. Only 8 others will be chosen (I will fill out the last Chosen myself after the rest are picked). But don't let that scare you. It will be a time and quality based choice on my part. If you write a character that's really amazing you'll likely get a slot early but other than that I will review all of them best I can to find the ones that work the best.
    This doesn't mean super long and detailed either. Something short but understandable and well made is perfectly great.

    There can only be ONE character for each Element.

  8. The Dream Continues

    Our young trainers have finally reached the last city on the island where new trainers get dropped off. They are now preparing to embark on the next stage of their quest. Mainland Korova. They will have even greater challenges, but also greater friends, on their path to be Pokemon League Champion.

    HRpi1YM.png

    Naomi let out a monstrous yawn as she rolled over and fell straight to the floor. She lay there, for a few moments, un-moving, until Princess rolled her onto her back. "Gmo'nin" she muttered, blinking rapidly as her eyes adjusted to the light coming through the window.

    With the help of Princess the girl was able to get up to her feet. Though she immediately leaned up against Princess right after and the two spent a considerable amount of time trying to fit through the door before Naomi finally resigned herself to returning Princess to her ball.

    The girl stumbled her way out of the Pokemon Center and headed towards the first place she thought of. The docks that they had been at the other day. She didn't know if that's where the others had gone but it was where she remembered them going last so it only made sense, right?

    This half-baked logic, by sheer luck, turned out to be true. As the girl fumbled her way into finding them just as Kanon greeted Oswald, who had apparently just been in an encounter with a fish.

    "Mornin" Naomi muttered again as she approached. Before sprawling out once more on the ground near them.


    a8cPQwE.png

    Meanwhile, same day, a bit earlier than the other group, Team JIB managed to find their way to the dock. It was quiet, birds flew overhead, occasional fish splashed up, and an occasional whoop of victory could be heard by the various fishermen along the dock.

    However their destination was the ferry. It wasn't as large as the ship as it had a limit of ten passengers at a time but it did have a small deck on top that was designed to allow small scale Pokemon battles for those who were bored on the several hour trip to the mainland. The captain of the vessel looked similar to the captain of the boat they had arrived on. And, in fact, if questioned he'd tell them that they were cousins. Which still didn't quite explain why they looked almost entirely identical.

    Either way the man would welcome the group on board with a reminder that they won't be underway for a few hours yet and that the single lounge room only had a television set for amusement. Though it did have several couches that were soft and a horribly ugly shade of purple.


  9. At the Beginning

    The Korova Region. A more untamed region than most in the world it was always a place of great interest to strong trainers. With its vast wilderness and general lack of contact with the other regions it was perfect for trainers to grow and learn about themselves. However in the recent years it has grown more restless. The Champion had vanished without a trace and a group of criminals, Team Phoenix, have become more active. The Pokemon League decided that they needed a new Champion to help bring peace of mind to the people of the region. Thus they sent out invitations far and wide to try and gather trainers, and bring them to the region free of charge, to take on their Pokemon League challenge.

    You are one of a select group who, for one reason or another, decided to come to this land for the great opportunity of becoming the region's new Champion. Some goals may differ but one thing is certain. The trainers who come to Korova are destined to change it forever.

    Welcome back, to Pokemon: Mind and Soul.

    Rules

    Spoiler

    1. Site rules apply

    2. Limited Acceptance. Besides myself and the co-host there will only ever be 4 applications.

    3. Unless you are holding the group up there will be some leniency in posting time but preference is more than once a week if possible.

    4. If you fall behind too much without proof that will change your character will be replaced.

    5. I will let you know when you can write out a capture, battle, etc without input. If I do not and you aren't sure you can ask but never do so unless there's indication you can.

    Premise

    Spoiler

    Already stated at the start but to summarize...

    There will be two groups of trainers, me and two others and skaia and two others, who will travel the land of Korova and earn gym badges, battle evil teams, and uncover a sinister mystery. Both these groups are on the same path but time will be only vaguely utilized in order to let me put either group at any city at the same or different times as needed.

    It's basically a typical Pokemon journey. Young trainers, starting with only one Pokemon, going on an adventure together. The setting, and some Pokemon, are entirely custom but other than that it's very similar to the games.

    Setting

    Spoiler

    The Korova region is a vast and varied land which the middle of the land is covered in such deep wilderness that borders and fences are up to keep trainers from wandering too far into it due to risk.

    Map

    Do you like any chocolate cereals? If so, what's your most preferred one? Are you cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs?

    Yes, you can be my cat. And yes I think we've had this talk before.

    Anyway I suppose cocoa puffs would be my favorite of specifically chocolate cereals but I don't really eat much of it either way.

    "What...happened? Ah, so that was the cause. Very well, it's time for a new home. Just like back then..."

     


     

    It had been an eventful few days for one Morgan Reaperson. She hadn't expected the Fighters to be as strong as they were. Of course, she made sure to make herself look good in her fights regardless but she wasn't entirely satisfied. She had to be the absolute, no question, best ever. Even if she did keep seeing fans pop up online, some rather unsavory folk at times, she couldn't shake the feeling that she was just "one of many" when it came to these Fighters.

    Especially when she learned that there had been Fighters before her. She had taken upon herself to research these former Fighters and thus it was that she found herself at a rather unusual place for someone of her build. A sports stadium. With a look of contempt she floated around the large, gaudy, structure and waited for the unwashed masses, at least that's what they were in Morgan's mind, shrunk to a more reasonable size before entering.

    "Let us see where this 'Former Fighter' might be hiding."

     


     

    For the other Fighters the day would start just like any other had. Except this time there was a bit of an odd message from Mauvache.

    Dear Fighters. I apologize if you feel a bit unlike yourselves this morning. There was a rather unusual magic surge overnight but I assure you there aren't any changes, beyond perhaps a couple superficial, that you must worry about. I hope you enjoy today as it's the start of a new week. Which means a free day for you all! Of course you may still participate in an Event if you so choose, just know it will be prerecorded and shown other days of the week, but I personally would take this time to relax and enjoy this most wondrous of cities.

    PS: Your regular meals are on me today.

    -Mauvache

    Anyway I guess it's only fitting I make one of these. Heya, I'm Cow. Newer people might remember me as God Emperor Cow. I am borderline obsessed with Neopolitan from RWBY and I rule RP with an iron fist.

     


     

    ...Okay in all seriousness. I joined YCM in 2011 stuck around a couple months came back a few years later, was forced into RP and never looked back. Somehow stumbled into being a mod and the site became kind of important to me down the line.

    So when it died I knew that something had to be done. Of course I didn't do much myself but I'm glad to be a part of creating this new place for all of you. You can find me all over the place but mostly in RP, Polls, General, and Misc.

     


     

    And, how about we close this off with a more fitting gif for our drastic change in home.

    Seeya around, old and new friends. Try not to break too many rules.

    I don't seem to be able to take my vote back or to see who voted.
    Also it doesn't indicate which one I voted for so it's up to my memory.

    ^IDK how many of those were intentional parameters of the poll, but I'm posting this info in case it's useful in any way.

    The tiny "person" symbol on the far right is to see who voted (though might be just mod?) as for changing votes...hm, suppose if someone makes a mistake they can always just change it in the thread. (Though it DOES cut back on trying to swap back and forth to force a tie which I guess might've been bad.....)

    BGM

    Hello again, YC...NCM. After a rather unfortunate incident, which I assure you I had no part of, though I did warn Cyanthrax not to go in that room...

    Ah, excuse me. Let me start again.

    Hello NCM, my name is Mauvache. And I am proud to introduce you to this RP. I have the distinct pleasure and honor of running a special battle Arena on my home planet of Rama-Indri. Where I have gathered Fighters from across the dimensions to do battle in Virtual Battlefields for the entertainment of a world in dire need of joy.

    Here you shall battle many unusual people and creatures and learn to start a new life in a wondrous new land.

    Welcome, to RP Smash.

    Rules

    Spoiler

    1. All Site Rules Apply

    2. If you are being held up by another RPer inform me and I will contact the RPer to post or take control of their character if need be.

    3. Consistently holding back progress will result in being kicked. If you aren't keeping back the other players some leniency will be granted.

    4. Discord is not required but, as much information will be there, it is strongly encouraged. Will make give links to the databases if need be however.

    Premise

    Spoiler

    As Mauvache said the idea is fairly simple. A group of Fighters (The player characters) will duke it out in a Virtual Battlefield to earn points which is essentially the currency of the land. Each day they can fight one other Fighter and take part in a single Event Match (which have their own point costs).

    However that isn't the most important thing about the RP. To put simply I want an RP where the biggest draw is exploration outside of this 1 V 1 combat and interactions with each other and various NPCs around the city.

    There's also another catch. Any character accepted must be from an old RP. Specifically from any old YCM RP. Now, I know with the site being down this feels even more limiting but I don't want to lose the heart and soul of the RP. Which was meant to be a way to use a beloved character in a whole new way.

    Setting

    Spoiler

    The RP takes place on the planet Rama-Indri and the city of Prana. It's a vast and wealthy city on an otherwise dying planet. The city itself floats in the air and has several levels stacked above each other. The highest level is where the Arena, and various other entertainment based locations, is located. The middle level contains most of of housing and shops. And the lowest level, actually connected to the ground, is taken up mostly by the slums and a massive mine.

    City

    Top Level

    Middle Level

    Bottom Level

    Arena/Apartments

    First Floor

    Second Floor

    Third Floor

    Fourth Floor

    Fifth Floor

    Note: These aren't the only things to be found in the city but it gives a general idea.

    The city itself is incredibly advanced with magic technology powered by gems called Aetherstones.

    Point System/Combat

    Spoiler

    Characters start with 50 Points at the start of their career and can earn points through fights (60 for winning, 10 for losing) and various Events. As well as jobs that can be discovered as they explore the city.

    Combat itself works in a video game manner. Characters are put into a Virtual Battlefield where they can take damage without actual injury or death. Fighters have 1000 HP at the start of the match and the first to reach 0 loses. Damage is determined by the toughness of the character versus the power of the attack.

    Most battles I allow some leeway with the damage as the players in the fight can determine among themselves how much damage things do but if unsure or uncomfortable they can always ask me.

    Application

    Spoiler

    It used to be that you'd put you old YCM app, with link to the RP, and then describe what they did during the RP that you want to note and where they were when they were transported. However with YCM dead...

    Basically you'll recreate the character to the best of your ability. Include basic information (name, gender, race, etc), Personality, Bio, Appearance, and Combat at least. (Note non-combat characters can become combat characters, be creative) I would like some proof they were from an RP but a description of the RP would be necessary at least.

    All characters are "auto-balanced" by the system so that they have a fighting chance against each other but some may be somewhat more powerful than others, just nothing drastic.

    Reminder that this RP has 8 characters in at the moment so if you are fine with waiting a bit before joining then feel free to submit an app anyway for future use. (At least 2 more will be added in the future)

    Remember to make sure you choose a character you want to stick with and would like to write in various social, combat, and emotional situations.

    Accepted Apps and Future Apps

    Spoiler

    Once again there are 8 in it at the moment but won't begin adding them until those in it recreate their apps (that doesn't mean they can't post in the IC. They are technically already accepted after all). However anyone wishing to be put on the future app roster must post here before being considered even if they already have in the old thread.

    Accepted

    Spoiler

     

    Waiting List

    Spoiler

     

     

    There is a Discord which will contain links to various statistics and other information. Anyone with any questions not in the chat may ask them here.

    The plan to deal with the current situation is this: We will time skip to Sunday in IC (One week from the start of the RP originally) and have the players fill in a summary of what they did. We will work out what they bought, who they hung out with, and how many points they have (as well as who they fought) and such things. I will be making a Daily Journal Document to put in the Discord (as well as one for information and another for confirmed prices of things).

    Note that I have a list of characters that have fought and where they fought but I won't fill out the list for the "summary" fights. In other words Cyanthrax vs Aria and Gavin vs Aurora happened in the "Demon Stomach" Battlefield. Even if another pair in the summary fought there they won't be included in the list (as the purpose is to make sure I don't double up too much and let everyone write a fight in each Battlefield).

    Identity Information

    Name: Penelope Nabudis
    Age: 16
    Gender: Female
    Birthplace: Augusta, Galtea.

    Appearance

    Spoiler

    7M4MK2E.jpg?1

    5‘4“ 119lbs

    Personality

    Spoiler

    Penelope is a very studious young lady. She can often be found with her nose in a book and believes strongly that you can learn whatever you need to from the words of the great geniuses of the past. This gives her a tendency to undervalue personal experience and she doesn’t agree with the idea that one would need to experience things for themselves. Though she is eager to share what she learned with people. in fact when it comes to reading and sharing knowledge Penelope can be downright excitable.
    However Penelope is quite lazy when it comes to actually doing work. She adores reading, be it fiction or non-fiction, and this sometimes can lead to her refusing to do certain tasks, and can be a bit immature and childish about this at times. She knows when something needs to be done but she has difficulty tearing herself away from books. When she isn't reading she can be quite social, she's not opposed to talking with others, she just really adores reading.

    Penelope believes there is greatness in avoiding confrontations. She thinks that the mark of a true warrior is to know how to avoid having to fight at all. Though she also has a bit of a stubborn side when it comes to this. When forced into a confrontation Penelope will react with sudden flight or fight. Either becoming awkward and trying to leave, or getting angry, usually depending on the circumstance and how she feels about the person confronting her.
    This puts her at odds with her sister, as she’s always trying to get her to do things she doesn’t want to do. She doesn’t dislike Catriona but she also sees her as the personification of a lifestyle she doesn’t want.

    However Penelope is great at negotiation and, when needed, manipulation. She sees it as if someone was manipulated that means she bested them. Just as how one wouldn’t complain about losing a duel, one shouldn’t complain about being manipulated.

    Penelope is a bit frustrated with her sister, and worries that her ways would lead their country down a dangerous path. And so, while she doesn’t like it, she is perfectly willing to learn how to become a good advisor. However she often less “advises" and more “demands".

    On the other hand Penelope is very caring about the people of her country. She realizes how important even the weakest soldier is. She knows that everyone, young and old, have stories to them. She doesn't seem to realize these stories she values so much come from experience. Her care helped her to be very close to the common people and the soldiers of her country. They see her as a kind and friendly individual, and many tend to be kind to her in return. She’s very easy to converse with as long as you don’t try and make her do something she doesn’t want to.

    Another thing that sometimes clashes with her laziness is her desire to make herself, and others, appear presentable. This probably stems from the fact she'd get treats from her parents when she was younger, by keeping herself clean. However if push comes to shove the laziness wins out.

    She strives to be a great tactician, one who can command armies with ease and outmaneuver any competition. Her greatest strength, and biggest weakness, is her desire to keep everyone safe. She also has an odd habit of relying on luck in battle when she can’t find a solution that satisfies her.

    Biography

    Spoiler

    The younger princess of Galtea, Penelope wasn’t put under as much pressure as her sister. However this is partially due to the fact that her parents realized early on that she learned best when left to her own devices. They came to her on occasion to make sure she was doing fine and to check on her learning, but other than that she was kinda given free reign.

    She used this to her advantage and explored the castle and city whenever she could. She visited poor and rich, soldier and civilian, everyone she could. Her babysitter and guardian was every living creature in the city. She had several instances where she almost came to harm but a combination of knowing her way around, including secret passages, the help of her people, and a big dose of luck, kept her from coming to any lasting harm.

    She never saw much of her sister, as the older girl was being more formally educated and never had time to play, or as Penelope put it, learn. This frustrated the young girl, though she tried to have patience. Thus her interactions with her sister tended to go from polite, feigned, indifference to annoyance and anger.

    Combat Style

    Spoiler

    One would think Penelope would have a perchance for magic over anything, given her nature. However she decided at an early age that it would be more practical to take up the sword. That isn’t to say she’s bad with magic, but she doesn’t focus on it and thus it’s usually just a compliment to her swordplay.
    However she’s not a great swords-woman either, especially compared to her sister. Which is something that bothers her greatly.
    She tends to take a cautious fighting style at first, waiting for openings, dodging rather than blocking, and striking with precision. Tends to slash more than thrust.

    Identity Information

    Name: Gunther Bove
    Age: 19
    Gender: Male
    Birthplace: Nastre, Galtea

    Appearance

    Spoiler

    mwg01Z1.jpg?1

    Gunther has dark green eyes, and his hair naturally sticks up all over the place. He was told to put special oils in it to keep it flattened and not look slovenly. His armor is much heavier than depicted, and the cape is blue.
    He stands at an impressive 6'2“ and weighs in at 210 pounds without the armor.

    Personality

    Spoiler

    Gunther is not exactly what one would expect from a Knight. The first thing that sets him apart, and not in a good way, is the fact that he's entirely terrified of pain and dying. The mere thought of being tortured would be enough to shake him up and he tries to avoid pain as best he can. Which is one reason he decided to train with the heavy armor of a Knight. Dying frightens him more because he's constantly struggling with having faith in an afterlife, and the idea of simply not existing anymore drives him mad.

    However this isn't all there is to Gunther. He's a very sweet individual, always trying to be kind, polite, and genuine. He's quite soft spoken and friendly, willing to lend a hand when needed. Though, he often feels he's not doing enough. Has very little self-worth and thinks that there are many others that can do whatever he is doing better. This can lead to him giving up part-way. Has a fondness of flowers and animals, and is very gentle with both. In return animals seem to love him and plants seem to flourish in his care.

    An extremely gullible individual, Gunther is easily convinced by lies and can be overly trusting. Except when it comes to those that worship the Goddess. To them he's, sometimes to a paranoid level, leery.

    Pretty forgetful, and messy, Gunther has often been scolded for his unprofessional demeanor. However he is truly a determined young man, and believes that one should work hard and do what is ordered of you. As long as it doesn't go against his rather simple morals. Those being, don't ruin nature, don't harm others, respect your superiors, protect those you can, and give to those less fortunate.

    Gunther wishes to be a hero, though his slight cowardice and anxiety can make this difficult.

    Biography

    Spoiler

    To understand Gunther's history you must start with his mother. A waitress at a tavern in Nastre, this young woman had seen many kinds of people. None truly held much interest to her, romantically, until a strong and mysterious pirate came to spend the night drinking and partying. It was one of those fast and passionate romances that lasted the night, and then the next morning the man left. But not before impregnating the girl, with Gunther. She struggled to continue working to be able to feed herself and her baby and, when Gunther was not yet ten years old, gathered enough to travel to the capital. There she became a servant at the castle itself and, through dedication on both her and her son's part, Gunther managed to be accepted into the army.

    Gunther doesn't know the truth about his father. Whenever he was brought up, his mother would get quiet and brush it off. But one day she told him a story, a lie, that she felt would make him feel better. Since many kids around the town were making claims, most close to the truth, and upsetting Gunther. She told him he was a strong mercenary of justice that was murdered by disciples of the Goddess while trying to bring down an evil and dangerous sect. He believed this, and grew up thinking that the followers of the Goddess all were not to be trusted, and that he had an amazing legacy to live up to. He practiced and practiced, and generally avoided the other kids in lieu of pets and plants, so that he could become someone to make his parents proud. He didn't mind leaving his home, as he had few friends and Nastre was quite a rough place, he had been injured far more often than he'd have liked.

    He met the Princesses fairly early on after his mother became a servant, and immediately grew attached to them, though he didn't outright say it ever. He grew closer to the younger, as Catriona was quite busy and was kept away more often than not. Whereas Penelope was allowed, or managed to find a way, to interact with the servants more often. When he was made a Knight, he was so proud that he went straight to the Princesses and declared his eternal servitude to them. Many thought this rash and rude, but the Princesses seemed to take it well. He wasn't a terrible soldier, but he also wasn't anything special. He always seemed to be held back somehow by his own personality. He was more or less forgotten by most, as an average soldier in the army. But Penelope remembered. When Penelope decided to go on a trip to Sochen, her father made her take a guard. However he, after a long negotiation, allowed her to pick the guard. When she chose Gunther the King was not particularly pleased, but he did not want to go back on his word. So he went to Gunther personally to go above and beyond in his service, and Gunther of course agreed. When Penelope had her reunion with her sister, Gunther was there, and he happily and proudly went with them on their quest.

    Character Opinions

    Penelope

    Spoiler

    Catriona: Seriously sometimes I wonder if she doesn’t realize that she’s supposed to rule the country eventually. I know father doesn’t seem like he’ll ever go away but...anyway, yeah, come on you’re the big sister you should probably read a few more books at least. She could probably do whatever she set her mind to if she’d only use her mind more often...well, guess that’s what I’m here for. Honestly I can not believe she intended to do this without me.

    Alois: It is pretty amusing how casual he acts despite coming from...well, I suppose his home is a bit different than expected but even so. I think I’m getting better at making him feel awkward though, I’ll win this in the end just you watch. I Suppose overall I’d say I am glad he’s around else things would be much more boring. But that’s all, probably, right? It had better be all...

    Gunther: My stalwart comrade, brother in...well, not arms. Not brother, either, but if Catriona and I’s relationship is described as sibling than it would only make sense his and I’s are as well. I’m not sure he realizes it. Or, if he does, he avoids the label. I cannot exactly blame him, but, one of these days he’s going to keel over from his self-created burdens...Ahaha, that isn’t to say I won’t add to that burden now and then! If I didn’t I think he’d feel even worse...And he makes quite the pack mule doesn’t he?

    Edrick: Ah what a sweet idiot he is. I do wish he would listen a bit better but, really, it’s somewhat of a relief. I cannot see him ever doing anything under-handed after all. Perhaps there would be trouble if he were around more of our soldiers but as it stands he’s fairly easy to read. I don’t have to think too hard on how to deal with him or what he’ll do even if I do have to plan around his...outbursts. He’s sort of like a stray dog we adopted...which reminds me I should make sure he bathes more regularly...

    Link: I...need to keep an eye on him. I wish Gunther wouldn’t be so...that is to say...Oh, why am I beating around the bush in my own thoughts. If I had to rate who I trusted most I would put him on the bottom. I just cannot ever be sure what he’s thinking. He’s useful, and yet, he feels dangerous to handle...But handle him I must.

    Ciela: She’s something of a mystery. A mystery I am fairly sure I know some answers too. And yet, should I truly delve into them? After all if I’m right...but, no, she is for the most part harmless. If Edrick was a stray dog she would be a stray cat. I feel if left to her own devices she would somehow be fine and yet I would rather not leave her be. I can at least say she makes things an interesting at times! And still...there is much there that...I can’t help but wonder about.

    Sienna: What do I think about her? Even I am unsure at times. She seems so...different from everyone and not just because of the obvious. I feel like she’s made of glass at times, but with a jagged edge, I both want to keep her close and also hold her at arms length. I am not often at a loss how to approach someone yet...Perhaps I think of her too much as an object of interest but...how can I help that when she’s who, and what, she is?

    Tsetseg: My pupil, she’s growing up so fast. Well, actually, she’s kind of slow but she’ll get there. She may not know it but she is under my protection from here on out. Woe to anyone who harms a hair on her head. That said, I do not quite understand how she is...how she is. How she got by in this manner. I probably should not try and understand, and yet...

    Citron: Ah, she...well, she may not be the brightest girl but she sure is, er, earnest! It’s rather pleasant the way she talks with me though. I cannot deny that she brings a positive influence along with her. Perhaps this is rude to say but I think I’m rather glad she’s so....simple. Perhaps this journey might not be the best for her...

    Gunther

    Spoiler

    Catriona: Ah. She’s my lord, of course, she’s capable, and strong, much stronger than anyone I know. Between her and Penelope I don’t think anyone can stop them. That said...is it wrong that...she makes me think of a sister? She IS one, but, I mean...she isn’t my sister. She couldn’t be, I shouldn’t consider it but...I wish we could talk more casually, sometimes.

    Alois: He’s a bit of, er, well I don’t want to be rude. Maybe somewhat a...jerk? Oh but he’s trustworthy I can tell that! And he makes Penelope feel comfortable so I’m glad he’s around. Wait, should I be worried? Er, not that it’s my place...wait is it my place? Oh no, I hope he never meets the king.

    Penelope: I feel I cannot think anything that doesn’t sound a bit...unprofessional. She’s hard to see as another of my liege’s children sometimes. If I had a younger sibling I’d imagine she would be...ah there I go again. She’s someone I must protect no matter what. Though only physically, which is all I can do, she’s much more capable than many might think. Almost frightening in a way...But I think it’s fine to say I feel closest to her, that’s not out of line right?

    Edrick: Am I mad? Or is it everyone else? How can someone think this is okay? I am forced to question everything whenever he’s around. The princesses seem fine with him but that cannot be? Even Link, so cautious, doesn’t worry about him. What is wrong with me, then...I...I wish he would leave...

    Link: Why was someone like him hiding away in a library of all places? If anyone should be protecting the princesses its him, not me...I sometimes wish to speak more with him and yet, how could I? Perhaps my position is technically higher but he is far more capable, far more useful, than I am. But what is it that I see behind his eyes whenever I look for more than a moment?

    Ciela: Ah, um, er...she’s nice? Ahhh....I am not entirely sure how I should act around her. She seems like she may be of a higher class at times, yet, at others she seems to be...uh, not. Sometimes she reminds me a bit of Penelope and yet there’s something...different. I don’t know what it is, though. Whatever the case she needs protecting as well and she doesn’t have the power of Catriona nor the mind of Penelope.

    Sienna: How to say this...there is something about her that puts me on edge. But she herself seems to be a perfectly fine person. Mayhaps it is all those childhood stories that make me nervous but I’m sure there’s nothing to it. I should try and talk with her more but I worry I might frighten her somehow.

    Tsetseg: Is she really...real? I can’t be sure at times. She’s much like some mythical forest creature but she is very much flesh and blood. I would have to say I enjoy her company even if only because she has this...light in her. I think it best we all work to keep that light burning. There are things I have seen that could darken it and the world needs lights like hers.

    Citron: I am ashamed to say I do not fully know what to think of her. She seems nice enough but, erm, I worry what she thinks this journey is. Is it really okay for us to have her fight alongside us? Does she know what it is she’s getting into? Some of the others may not be what I’d call soldiers, or warriors, but this seems doubly so for her. At the very least I know that she is a good person, Peaches is proof of that.
