Tales of Elyansia (Discussion Board) It's back people! =D

[Akashic]

Okay, here's my second character. =) I'll have his actual appearance picture (mostly his face) up soon, since I'm nearly finished drawing it in my sketchpad. Also, the picture of Riiya (who was from the first TOE) was also drawn and colored by me... and sorry about the difference in his clothing compared to my character's... it was made last year. The character's clothing picture is from one of the concept designs of a character from Phantasy Star Portable 2 to describe Akando's tribal attire. =3

Edit: Appearance picture is now up.
~~~~~


Akando Nootau

Nickname: Aka
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Race: Felis
Birthplace: Etu Village (Village southwest of Nekoi)
Alliance: Neutral

Eye Color: Teal
Hair Color: Jet-black
Appearance: Aka stands 5’ 9” tall and has somewhat of a muscular build at his torso area. He has slightly tanned skin tone and tribal markings over his arms and face. He has thick, chin-length black wavy hair and black flowing, bushy tail which he has a flat golden ring that he uses to tie the long fur together. His wide-shaped eyes are a deep shade of teal and on his face, the tribal markings (rectangular shaped) are along his cheeks, forehead, and a thin yellow line running down his nose.

His Clothing is also very tribal, made out of leather and woven cloth. His top clothing is colored vibrantly in hues of yellow-orange, white, and slate blue. He also wears a large headband with turquoise and blue feathers at the left side of the band and it covers the majority of his forehead and hair. The headband can be lowered to cover his face—matching the design on his shawl and giving him a bestial or demonic appearance. He has two bags strapped at each side of his waist, held by a large belt, and a couple of straps hang by his legs. At his left arm is a thick teal-blue guard made out of a type of durable shell, and at each of his fingers are a set of wood-carved rings. He also wears yellow-orange leather boots with multiple belts wrapped all around it.

Weaponry: Spear with the same tribal markings as his clothing and clan symbols.

Personal Details/History: Aka often tends to be straightforward and blunt when he needs to get something across and is usually very cautious of his surroundings. He loves nature and has the ability to sense the Mana from the environment and the emotions of other animals; an ability that is uncommon among the Felis race and only found in the Nootau clan. Though, like most of his people in his clan, he doesn’t often speak the human tongue that is common in Elyansia, and so his understanding of the common tongue is quite limited. Lacking in common sense, Aka almost act purely on instinct and can tend to be reckless when he’s threatened or in a battle. He doesn’t often transform into his weretiger form, but if he needs to he will not hesitate to unleash his other self.


Akando is a direct descendant of the Felis Seer and Tainted One, Riiya, who was once a companion of the Celestial Demon Ragnarok. His family line had inherited the ability of clairvoyance and used it to predict their future to keep their generations living on by hiding in secret from detection of Goddess Lyra’s followers. Though a few generations before Akando, his clan had to ‘die off’ and was now reborn anew as the Nootau, after an incident that nearly revealed them before Lyra’s warriors. Once escaping danger, they settled down near the Felis capital and began their life anew there, despite having to reluctantly ‘conform’ to the Goddess’ beliefs in order to not be persecuted by the other Felises in the area.

Akando was born as the youngest of three and like the rest of the Felises in the area, lived in isolation from the rest of the world. His father was the chief of the Nootau tribe (who has the ability of weak clairvoyance) and his mother was a common dancer. For most of his early childhood, he was trained by his seniors to become a hunter and warrior of the tribe—devoting himself deeply to his tribesmen. He was taught by his elder brothers the customs of the Felis culture as well as becoming a warrior of the tribe. Though, it wasn’t until he was about the age of ten was when his father revealed to him that he was a descendant of one of the Tainted Ones and had to promise to keep it a secret from the rest of the Felises in the Aztoma region. At first, he became disheartened by the news because he feared that he wouldn’t live the normal life that he was used to, and began to feel confused. The confusion threw off his senses and his performance within the tribe.

However, a year later when he was alone in the forest, he began to feel strange—like if his senses had suddenly increased drastically. He was able to feel the life and mana around him and that calmed his mind, relieving the confusion that had been tormenting him for a year. When he returned, it was revealed that it was a gift of his inheritance from Riiya, a sort of sixth sense to detect the mana from his surroundings. He is able to ‘scent’ the mana from the forests and the animals—feeling their life-force and he began to truly appreciate the life of nature in the world. After realizing this, he started to appreciate being related to a Tainted One instead of resenting it, and vowing to protect his clan’s secret. For several years later, he continued his training until he became a full-fledge warrior of the tribe at the age of eighteen.

One day, Aka’s father soon began having visions of the troubles going on in the world of Elyansia. It showed the world thrown into turmoil and war had broken out again that threatened to become the next Legendary War that occurred four thousand years ago. Worried about the future and predicting a terrible premonition, he commanded Akando to seek out the Moogi Tainted One who was sealed away and holds the Dewdrop Tear and to search for the remaining Ragnarok Tears so they wouldn’t fall into the wrong hands. Determined to find the Moogi that was a companion to his ancestor, he sets off from his home in the Aztoma region to search for Eikona.

Everything looks good in it. ^^

Just one spelling mistake and that's only one. ^^

Dewdrop is one word, not two seperate words. But I don't think it that's important but I wanted to point it out. XD

Anyways, adding~

Edit: I'll get my new character up in a while but I also like to inform everyone that the RP will be starting tomarrow. So I hope you're all ready. ^_^

I have to work on that soundtrack again since I kinda ditched it during the first RP. XD

I'll fix it when I get on a computer. *is still in bed*

Edit: you also have Akando under 'good' when I have him neutral, Martel.

Starting it on Thanksgiving day?! :O I'll try to get a post up that day if I'm not busy. Also, if it's up tomorrow, I won't be able to post majority of Friday (aka Black Friday) cuz I'll be Christmas shopping with my sis and cousin. If I find time in the evening, I'll make a post. =)

I'm ready for it! I'll be introducing Gabe a little later in the story, somewhat after Crest and Kia leave Zanark City.

EDIT: Maybe we can include the gender-bender scene sometime later in the story? Since the original stopped in the middle of it, I'd like this RP to finish it.

Akashic@: Thanks, I've fixed that now. ^^

And okay, sure. TBH, we don't have thanksgiving over here so I didn't know that it collided with that day. ^^;

Gabriel@: That Gender-bending was actually kinda added on by Geno and Desmond from the original RP. It never really was meant to be in there. So we can skip that one altogether. ^_^;

Name: Momo Epocha
Nickname: 'That Crazy Professor'
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Race: Raibai
Birthplace: Jamubai City
Alliance: Good

Appearance: She's meant to have a rabbit nose but we can just use our mind's eye for that. XD

Weaponry: Magi-Tech Bazooka Here's a picture of what the weapon looks like

Personal Details/History: Momo is an excitable and energetic Raibai who loves to tinker with ancient Magi-Tech and learn it's ancient secrets.

Being the only daughter of a world-famous researcher on Magi-Tech and other weapons that were used during the Legendary War, she loves him dearly and hopes to one day be just like him or even succeed him.

She loves history and ancient machinary so when she is near a ruin or looking at an artifact, she goes into a bizzare state which could only be named as 'Relic-Mania mode'.

She uses mostly wind-element magic along with some defensive magic. Although she is known to use other elemental spells. She powers up her magi-tech bazooka that she found during a previous ruin dig by using her own mana to charge it.

She is currently living in Magica Sari, educating the Mahouni children in Ancient History. When she hears about an 'ancient library' rumored in the Prisma region, she becomes enthralled and decides to find the ruin itself.

Alrighty, I made two more characters. Good and Evil. I was kinda lazy so I used pictures for their appearance :S And I know their bio's are short, but they're the kind of characters I'd rather explain throughout the story.


Real Name: Aonghus na lasracha
Alias/nickname: Angus
Gender: Male
Age: Unknown (Nothing mysterious, he just won't tell anyone)
Race: Dwarf
Birthplace: Volcan city
Side: Good


Doesn't use the weapon in the picture.

Weaponry: “Pionos.” This weapon was hand-crafted by Angus, utilizing mysterious metals and complex craftsmanship. It's a gigantic battle axe, with two large bearded blades. Somehow, Angus made the center pole of the axe to double as a cannon of sorts... So when he lowers his axe, watch out, because he could be firing a hunk of earth right into your face. The weapon is customizable, too, so Angus can always modify it with magitech, if he ever wants to fire different elements from the barrel.

Personality: Strong-willed, but not stubborn. Curious, but not meddlesome. Angus is a bit of an oddity, among dwarfs. He doesn't obsess over weapons and rocks, but rather, Angus enjoys nature and life in general. Other dwarves may tease him, calling him a softie and whatnot, but Angus is still 100% stone. Even if he acts a bit... “elvish.”

Brief Personal Details/History: Angus won't talk about his life. All that's known is that he was a weaponsmith in Volcan city, like many other dwarves. For whatever reason, he gave up the secure life of the underground to venture out to the surface. Now, he's a wanderer. He travels from city to city, writing notes in his little journal, and enjoying everything life has to offer. He no longer works, as he made a fortune underground. He will still take requests, though, as he's always willing to make the next best weapon.

---

Real Name: ???
Alias/nickname: Soulcutter
Gender: ???
Age: ???
Race: Genji
Birthplace: Kutai Kingdom
Side: Evil


Also wears a face mask.

Weaponry: A bow, and a katana.

Personality: Not much is known of Soulcutter. Never seems to talk, but rather lets it's weapons do the talking. Many believe this enigmatic samurai is looking for something, an explanation to why it wanders.

Brief Personal Details/History: Once again, not much is known. It was trained as a Samurai by fellow Genji of Kutai Kingdom, and sometime during it's life, it left it's home to wander the world. Now it is feared by travelers, as the samurai will appear during cold, wet mornings, to strike them down for whatever reason.

[dmnoftheflames]

I'll rejoin, but with the old characters. I'm also gonna try to keep them from sticking with the main party all the time. Last time the party got insanely huge.

Here they are.

Basic character info

Real Name: Lucienda
Alias/nickname: Clouded Moonlight
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Race: Genji
Birthplace: ????
Side: Neutral


Physical Description

Eye color: Clouded Grey (she's blind)
Hair color: Her silver hair falls to her knees in the back. It also serves as a blindfold and a mask, for it drapes over her face.

Clothing: A grey blindfold remains forever wrapped around her left forearm. On the other arm is a white fingerless glove of leather. She wears a silver, ornate choker that houses an inventory jewel. Bandages wrap themselves around both her legs and around her voluptuous, upper torso. A tight-fitting, sleeveless garment reaches down to just below her waist. Lucienda wears a grey cloak embroidered with silver over all of this.

Weaponry: Tri-sectional Spear (the sections can be broken apart and used individually)

Personality: Lucienda has a very bright spirit, though, she is quite withdrawn. Withdrawn, but not shy. She doesn’t like voicing her opinions, but her beliefs are strong. With a gentle and frail-like nature, she comes off as weak and timid. It’s this gentle aura and her natural charisma (and her beauty) that attracts attention from all forms of life. Animals are especially fond of her. As soon as a contract is bound, though, that girl dissipates.

When on a job, Lucienda develops an icy demeanor that engulfs her completely. Not a hint of her gentle, warm self can be seen or felt. Until her task has been completed and the reward in her hands, Lucienda remains closed and to herself.

Brief Personal Details/History: Not much is known about her past. She was found at the Kutai Kingdom gates as a two year old child about the same time as a couple from the kingdom vanished. Her features were similar to the couple, but not close enough to deem them her parents. She was taken in at the orphanage and began her assassin’s training.

When she turned six, Lucienda’s skills were par to seniors who had easily ten or more years of experience. As she trained with some students in medicines and poisons, a jealous boy “accidentally” tossed poison into her eyes, rendering her eyes useless. Without her sight, the instructors began to lighten her training, but she insisted on raising the intensity.

Soon, Lucienda’s other senses heightened tremendously, and with them came a sixth and seventh sense to replace that of her eyes. She could see and read Mana signatures. With these abilities, her fame grew wider and wider, and floods of people rushed to enlist Lucienda. With a never-ending list of people wanting her aid, her source of income has never run dry since.

Real Name: Mirouin
Alias/nickname: N/A
Gender: Female
Age: 25 (looks 19)
Race: Drakonite
Birthplace: Eskar Coliseum Stands
Side: Evil
Eye colour: White
Hair colour: Pink wavy hair that covers her shoulder blades

Clothing: Mirouin wears a light pink cloth that starts at her right shoulder, slings over her right breast, around her back, over her left breast and ends on her other shoulder, forming a shirt. From each shoulder another cloth is slung and looped around the respective arm. A beautiful silver metal wraps around her neck to form a choker. Light pink cloths are hung from silver hip guards to cover the front and the back down to her calves, leaving the legs exposed.

Weaponry: Mirouin uses her claws and martial arts to fight, a style that is more defensive and focuses on countering rather than attacking. After training under Lucienda for a while, she has learned better control her lightning magic and apply it to her martial arts skills. Her skin is harder than most others and can block duller weapons with ease. She’s also built a resistance to pain.

Personality: Very bitter and baring hatred toward other Drakonites for a past experience. Due to this, Mirouin is quite wary of others, not being able to trust easily. For this reason, she is often silent, not speaking, sometimes even when spoken to. Despite this, however, she is a likable person. Of course, one would have to dig past the trust issue and the desire for revenge on Drakonites to find it.

Brief Personal Details/History: Having been born to the proud race of Drakonites is a source of pride for many Drakonites, but for Mirouin, it’s the source of hatred. Her parents were enjoying events in the coliseum when her mother went into labor. The paramedics had to deliver the baby right there in the stands. Her older brother didn’t get to enjoy the rest of the events due to her birth and had been bitter since.

Born in the middle of a family of five (parents included), she was often neglected. Her older brother stole much of the attention, and her younger sister stole much of what was left. With a shining star, older brother and a cute, performing, little sister, the acrobatic girl in the middle was nothing.

To add to the neglect, Mirouin was a late bloomer. No one had any idea why. Both full-blooded parents had been faithful to each other, so there was no chance for a half-breed. When she showed signs of transformation at twelve, the attention was finally on her. Her parents were proud that their daughter could finally transform. They even traveled to the holy mountain for a better stage, but when she attempted the transformation, she failed, only able to phase part-way. In her ‘fully’ phased form, only dragon wings and a tail appeared. The color is similar to her hair. Her tail looks like that of a succubus rather than a dragon as well.

After this incident, her family disowned Mirouin, coldly throwing her out and down the mountain. Through months of trudging toward Eskar, she made it back only to find that she had been banished, never to return. The only item the city gave her was a ticket for a ride to the Crescent Islands.

Six years later, when she was eighteen, Mirouin’s path crossed a little thirteen year old girl. Though blind, this girl was far above her in terms of skill. The martial arts training she underwent in Eskar and Gwenda, a lesser village of the Crescent Islands, was quickly overcome. After being defeated, she served under the Clouded Moonlight for several years. They’ve parted ways and now she travels alone, hoping to exact her revenge someday.

Real Name: Shichiyou
Alias/nickname: N/A
Gender: Female
Age: Unknown, but old. Really old. Looks 20.
Race: Genji
Birthplace: Unknown
Side: Neutral
Eye colour: Rose (the pink kind, just in case you were wondering)
Hair colour: Silver (drops down to just below her rear)

Clothing: Shichiyou wears a white jacket that ends at the midriff. The sleeves drop down about half way down her palms and the collar rises to cover everything from her nose down. A pair of low-rise white pants is slung around her hips. And, you guessed it, white shoes. She wears two inventory jewels, one on each wrist. The mark of the Ryouga completely covers from her neck and moves all the way down her both legs. (Yes, you can see it in the open area of her back between her jacket and her pants.)

Weaponry: Shichiyou is a master of projectiles, though, not of the usual kind. No arrows. No kunai. No shooting. No throwing. Instead, she is able to flick coins at incredibly fast speeds. Of course, they’re not sharp enough to pierce skin, but they can break bones. As a secondary weapon, Shichiyou has her pockets. (Nope. No explanation for now. ^_~ You’ll just have to wait.)

Personality: Shichiyou enjoys fighting. A lot. She’s been known to be extremely cruel to those that oppose her, but it’s just her having fun. She enjoys to cause fights, whether they are fights over her or fights with her, it doesn’t matter. It’s fun for her either way. She doesn’t hesitate to speak when she wants, but unless it’s fun, she normally doesn’t. No soft side is known to anyone but Lucienda.

Brief Personal Details/History: Not much is known about Shichiyou. Those close to her know about as much as that guy over there walking down the street. Ragnarok doesn’t know anything, Lyra doesn’t know anything, and the other Tainted Ones don’t know anything either. The few things that are known are as follows: she is a Tainted One. The end.
