Name: Silven Lybrian Age: 25 Race: Magelf/Fairy Explorer Type: Mage Element: Plant Home Nation: Plant Nation Appearance: Silven is five feet, four inches tall. She's thin and pale from spending all of her time indoors. She has long, golden hair that's worn in a ponytail in the back and crown-like braid around her head. Her eyes are golden colored as well. She has the pointed ears of a Magelf, but her glowing markings are not found all over her body. She simply has two marks on the sides of her face, looking like a flowing stroke of a paint brush. Her wings are slightly transparent and green with a golden, wind-like design pattern. Silven wears a shirt with a similar design, which might be mistaken for high class and formal wear if she didn't wear an open robe over it. No, not a magic robe. The kind that you sleep in. Her sleeping robe is always on and is green colored with little sheep on it. She wears green, fuzzy sleeping pants as well with this, further making her elegant look completely ruined. But on the bright side, her robe and sleeping pants match. She pretty much never wears shoes since she just typically flies from place to place. And by fly, I mean lazily drift with her wings. Aside from those, the only other thing she wears is a little, golden necklace. It has a little flower locket on it, containing...well, nothing. But she plans on putting something important in there one day. Backstory: Silven has spent pretty much her entire life in the Plant Nation's fairy forests. She lives in a simple fairy village. One of those typically peaceful places where the fairies frolic and play. Except Silven. She prefers to sit inside and read. See, ever since Silven was little, she's enjoyed books. People? Not so much. She just isn't interested in them. After all, why go outside and talk to all those boring fairies when you can stay inside and read a book, snuggled up with your kitty under a blanket? Some crazy people seem to have their priorities mixed up. Silven's father is a traveling book salesman and her mother used to be the librarian of the fairy village. However, Silven's mother died from an illness and she took over the library. Silven's father still travels around and sells books, but he always comes back home and saves the best for his daughter. With constant supply of books and her own magic to grow food with, Silven...really doesn't leave the house much. Beast Sheet Name: Mittens Species: Kitten Appearance: A small, black kitten with white tipped paws, ears, tail, and nose. Mittens is a long haired and poofy kitty cat. He's useless in battle, but enjoys cuddles and naps. He's often seen hanging off of Silven's shoulder, laying lazily on her shoulder, sleeping on her shoulder, or sitting on her head. But never sitting on her shoulder. That would be too convenient. I hope you're not telling me I can make another character...

Anyone is free to make any kind of character they like as long as they fit into the world. So, if you want to make a bad guy, go ahead. Just remember not to make him for the sake of being evil. Try to go for evil from the main characters' point of view.

(I usually go for Chaotic Neutral)
Name: Cornelius Kane Age: 30 Race: Human Explorer Type: Psypher Element: Electric Nation Psypher: Various (I'll make a list later). Original Psypher is a complete armor which absorbs electricity and reuses it for attacks, defense or even healing. Cornelius calls it "Vortex". Home Nation: Electric Nation, currently lives in the Wind Nation Appearance: (Unfortunately out of time for now) Backstory: (Summary for now, will detail it later) Hoards Psypher weapons to sell them to the Dark Nation. Got wind that someone was onto him, left to hide in the Wind Nation where no one really cares to try and stop him.

Name: Zuko Anwar Age: 23 Race: Human Explorer: Mage, Psypher Psypher: Fire element katana Home Nation: Fire Nation Appearance: A little over 6 feet tall, not very muscular, but lithe and fit. Short, wavy light blonde hair and dark reddish brown eyes. Very handsome and would be a total "pretty boy" if not for the small but noticeable scar across the bridge of his nose. Very pale complexion, since he spends most of his time indoors. Usually wears a long white coat with fancy golden embroidery over a white tunic or dress shirt and white breeches(for formal wear) or simple white traveling pants. Usually wears brown boots when traveling. Has a medium sized katana in a beautifully crafted ornate silver and gold sheathe that he almost never unsheathes. Backstory: The only son of the Fire King, and heir to the throne. He is a quiet young man who detests fighting and combat and prefers to spend his time reading and learning and dreaming of the outside world. He's rarely allowed outside the palace and the few times he is it's usually with a full retinue of royal guards. He's quite popular with the ladies, though very shy and usually finds a way to politely turn them down. Or escape. He usually has his retainer, Cecilia, help him with that by using her as a distraction. She's long since learned to put up with it. Despite his hatred for war and combat, he does attend combat lessons(When he can't worm his way out of them) and thanks to his penchant for learning everything there is to learn, he is quite the young genius at military strategy. But his true talent and passion lies in magic, and he always jumps at any opportunity to learn more about it. He doesn't seem to be a very powerful mage to most, but his imagination and open mind allows him to be very versatile with fire and he often finds odd or unusual applications for its use. No one knows what the deal is with the sword he always carries but never uses, and the few who do know whatever secret the prince is hiding are extremely tight lipped about it. Name: Cecilia Graveil Age: 23 Race: Verian Explorer: Psypher Psypher: Gae Bolg, a powerful water element spear, Ruin, a water element rapier, and Valkyrie, a set of beautiful silver plate armor that uses ice for defense. Home Nation: Water Nation Appearance: 6'1, athletic and muscular, but not overly so. Long snowy white hair that she wears unbound and stormy gray eyes. She has two small horns protruding from her forehead, though they're usually hidden by her hair, and scales on her shoulders, forearms, lower back, and lower legs. The scales are very hard, like dragon scales, but are the same color as the rest of her skin, so they're mostly unnoticeable unless you're really, really close to her- something she generally doesn't allow. She also has scaly dragon-like tail that gives her an extra sense of balance, which helps her maintain her footing on uneven ground. Her skin is snowy white, like the color of her hair. She usually wears a large white fur coat and white fur hat that cover up her horns and tail, and a white button down shirt and black capri pants underneath, along with white leggings beneath that. She usually tends to go barefoot or wear sandals, but when she's forced to she wears black military style boots. When she has to go into battle, however, she usually changes into her armor. Backstory: The chief retainer and personal bodyguard of Prince Zuko. When they were both children, he saved her life while visiting the Water Nation, and she's been by his side ever since. Her past is largely a mystery, and she intends to keep it that way. She doesn't talk about her past much at all, even to Zuko, though she talks to him about it far more than anyone else. She is fiercely loyal and devoted to the prince, and she has no qualms letting everyone else know that he's the only person she serves- something the Fire King regularly gets pissed about(Though he always ends up letting it slide). Most call her "Anwar's Shadow", since she's never seen leaving the prince's side and always seems to stay in his shadow. To everyone else besides the prince, she is cold and aloof and rarely talks, to the point most people assume she's mute at first. She is extremely strong and fast, even for a Verian, and can leap over such extreme distances that it seems like she's flying. Character sheets for Zuko and Cecilia are done. I'll PM you the particulars about Cecilia's backstory in a bit, Mystic.

Can you give me the extents of each magic type? Like, what can each do that the others can't with different methods?

Can you give me the extents of each magic type? Like, what can each do that the others can't with different methods? The limits are usually up to the mage. Most elements cover a broad range of things they control. Here's a quick list. Fire: Controls fire, heat, possibly lava. Water: Controls water, ice, possibly blood (similar to blood bending from Avatar), plants that contain water, but only as if they were swinging the plant around like a weapon. Electric: Controls electricity, lightning, thunder, machines Plant: Controls the growth and death of plants, controls plants much more effectively than water mages, capable of controlling fungi as well. Earth: Controls rock, sand, and metals. Wind: Controls air, wind, various gases, and often the weather Light: Can create and control light, capable of dispelling curses, can create light related illusions, create powerful beams of light, powerful mages can desintigrate objects in a powerful burst of light Dark: Can create shadows, capable of unleashing powerful curses, capable of mind related illusions, can cause serious emotional distress, mind control at high levels of power Purity: Heals wounds almost immediately, capable of creating arcane barriers, can purify water, metals, and other natural objects, no offensive capabilities

What about dragon shapeshifting? I have this random desperate urge to do something with a Fire Dragon and it's killing me.

So it's more of "story" magic (magic is more general and non-spiders) rather than "functional" magic which uses clear rules.
The former is Fairy Tail and the latter is more akin to Hunter X Hunter or Naruto.

Yes, magic is non-spiders. It's more scorpions. It should say "non-specific." Quick reference: Is magic more of a "squishy-type" thing like in most video games or DnD where mages tend to be physically average, or are mages also physically stronger than the average person like in eastern fiction?

Post by SpringForest on Jan 11, 2017 14:29:29 GMT -6
Mages can be either one. The magic doesn't affect their physical strength, so they aren't particularly stronger from it, but they don't have to be squishy weaklings hiding in the back of an exploration party.

Okay, so it's the more western "normal people who can cast spells" approach. Got it.

Name: Silven Lybrian Race: Magelf/Fairy Beast Sheet Species: Kitten WHAT ARE YOU DOING MAN YOU KNOW HOW THIS GOES Why do you do this to me. I'm thinking about joining. Maybe. I've got 3 different ideas: a water-type crystal-tech inventor who's closer to my original vision for Celica than Celica, a plant-type bound to an adorable snuggle-wump bun-bun, or a wind-mage bird person.

I think I'm gonna go with a plant-mage who focuses on spores and small plants who fosters them in his lungs and can breathe it out as a cloud of plant matter which could poison or immobilize foes, like breathing out spores which quickly grow into a hard moss which can cement someone to the ground.
