coolcat101s's Character
Character Name: Selena
Gender: Female
Age: 15
Description: Selena
HTML http://s.bebo.com/app-image/7925341700/5411656627/PROFILE/i.quizzaz.com/img/q/u/08/04/19/splash_moon_radiate_joy.jpg<br
/>is short for her age, standing at 5’4” and weighin
g
in at 95lb. She has very pale skin and light blonde, almost
white, hair that goes to her shoulders; she has light blue,
almost gray eyes. She normally wears a white strapped dress that
goes to her knees, and when she isn’t at the temple she
wears a white fur shawl (passed down the generations from healer
to healer since the beginning) along with a pair of matching
white boots. The most important item that she wears is her Moon
Crystal necklace.
Characteristic: Selena is calm and determined, she's always
ready to help someone in need. She is adventurous and, unless
she’s working, she willing to make mistakes. She rarely
gets mad and when she does its at herself.
She has never really fought anyone in her life but often spars
with her friend Cerys (she worries about Selena’s safety
and wants her to be ready if she ever does have to fight). When
she is sparing she uses intelligence and strategy to win, not
force. She always fears for others, if in a real fight she would
be the one to take a blow for her friends, the only person who
has ever beat her is Cerys.
History: When Selena was a baby she was given a Moon crystal it
was cut more perfectly then humanly possible, some even say it
was Luna herself who gave it to her while her mother (the healer
at the time) was trying to wake her up from the sleep she was
in. When her mother returned, Selena was awake for the first
time in her life but she was also different, her once brown eyes
had become a light blue that was almost gray, her skin was pale,
and her black hair had become so blonde it was almost white. She
was changed and the tribe knew she was destined for great things
when they saw the small crystal glow in her hands. Later
Selena’s mother put the crystal on a silver chain so
Selena could wear it as a necklace. Selena noticed that water
seemed to react when she was extremely mad or sad, but she had a
pretty normal childhood up until she was 10 years old, that was
when her mother began training her to be the tribes leader and
healer. She began to visit the temple regularly, that’s
where she met and befriended a Water Element named Nixie who
usually prefers in the shape of a water dragon.
Selena’s mother died when she was 12, Selena then had to
take her mothers place as healer and leader. Since Selena
hadn’t finished learning the ways of healing from her
mother she had to teach herself. She had a little help from
Nixie, who taught her the healing powers of the crystal. She has
now learned all the normal healing methods (most involving herbs
from the temple) and the crystal healing methods, all she has to
learn is how to heal with water.
Side: She does not take sides, but she will protect her people
and her allies.
Weapon(s): none she is a healer, the closest thing she has to a
weapon is Nixie, who would protect Selena at any cost
Magic(s): none yet but she will have water and earth
Drgonstar's Character
Character Name: Kai "Longears" Shadowmoon
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Description: Kai is an elf, with black hair that goes to the
bottom of his neck. He is normally seeing wearing a black hood
and cape, with studded leather armor and pants, and black leater
boots. He is about 6'5 and has tannish skin and blue eyes. His
phsyical build is that of a regular 22 year old elf. His ears
got a bit past his head though, hence how he got the nickname
long ears.
Characteristic: Kai is an elf of very many words, but he tends
to stick to the shadows and not been seen. He's always
introduceing himself to a lot of people. Mainly the criminals
he kills. He has two sides to him. An elegant, more relaxed
side, and a psychopathic killer side. The psychopathic killer
side only emerges when he begins to hunt criminals. When he's
in this insane mode he has been known to take trophies from his
kills (I.e. an arm, leg, finger, etc.). This has gotten him
into trouble with a few others who see him as a menace. Hence
why Kai rarely shows his face.
History: Kai had a normal childhood growing up, normal parents,
nothing too major happening to him. He decided to become a
ranger and began training. After about 11 years he had become a
very skilled marksman, but he was only 17 and he decided he
needed to try something else. That was when the idea popped
into his head "Why don't I combine my archery skills with
magic!" He told his trainer about, his trainer promptly told
him that he never wanted to see Kai again. Kai didn't care
though, he soon began to study magic and he effectivly combined
simple magic with his archery skills. Another big hit to Kai
came when he saw his friends mericlessly slaughtered by a bandit
lord. Kai's psychotic personality began to emerge. He quickly
set off after the bandit lord, ended his life, gutted the lord,
cooked the lord's heart on a stove, and ate it. When Kai came
to his senses he saw what he had done and like it, he wanted to
do more of this killing of criminals. So he became a bounty
hunter and now kills them for a living.
Side: Nuetral
Weapon(s): Kai uses a long bow, it was his the last thing his
best friend gave him. It is both a memento of his friends, and
a thing to remind him of why he hunts criminals
Magic(s): Kai will use fire and wind magic
DMVA's Character
Character Name: Alex Soraxus
Gender: Male
Age: 37
Description:
[center]
HTML http://wallpaper.metalship.org/images/manga-dark-warrior.jpg[/center]
Alex Soraxus is a dark, menacing figure standing at almost 6
feet 5 inches. He is a strong, male warrior with the agility and
flexibility of a trained martial artist. With his dark grey eyes
and albino hair, he looks almost like a fallen angel.
Alex always wears a long, black cloak with shredded ends and a
hood which can cover the upper half of his face. Under this
cloak he wears a set of leather armour over his chest and
abdomen, with a gap in between for flexibility. Also, he has two
strong leather shoulder guards buckled in place by leather
straps. At his shoulders, coming off his cloak are two long
scarf-like fabric pieces attached with two metal clips around
his neck. The left clip has a blue cross on it. On his lower
half, he wears thick, white pants with black, drawn-on, tattoo
like drawings. He also has several leather straps on his pants
to make sure they fit him perfectly all the time. His shoes are
two-piece leather shoes with metal plates in the sole and over
the top of the foot, but they do not hinder the shoes
flexibility due to the positioning of them. Over his hands he
winds leather straps over cloth pieces to prevent them from
blistering and to protect them.
Alex also carries a sword which does not fit standard
definitions. It has a two-hand hilt, but the length is of a
one-half-hand sword. It is made of thrice-folded steel with a
tin core for flexibility. The actual blade starts about 30cm up
from the hilt, as the lower part is thick and strong for
parrying heavy blows. Alex doesn't have a sheath for his sword,
preferring instead to always have it in his hands and resting
across his shoulders or in a special leather strap he made which
is part of his leather armour on his lower back. The special
strap allows him to hold the sword in one hand but have the
majority of the weight on his strong back.
Soraxos, a large black Greater Sooty Owl
HTML http://www.owlpages.com/owls.php?genus=Tyto&species=tenebricosa,<br
/>is Alex Soraxus's familiar of sorts. Although not formally a
familiar, Soraxos sticks with Alex as much as possible either
flying above him and around him, or resting/sleeping on his
shoulder. Soraxos is much like Alex personality wise; he is very
quiet and would rather peck someone's eyes out than hoot at him.
During the day he hides beneath a fold of cloth while perched on
Alex's shoulder. Due to his strong grip, even if Alex is hanging
upside down Soraxos will not fall off (he won't be happy about
it either though).
Characteristic:
Alex is as dark and mysterious as his appearance. He rarely
talks, and when he does he is quiet, direct and even scarier (if
possible). He prefers the edge of his blade to the sharpness of
words in arguments, or not to argue at all.
Alex is almost like a ghost. He slips in and out in view, not
stopping unless he must. Instead of walking through a crowd, he
will quite 'gladly' run along the rooftops. His athleticism and
agility means that no obstacle can stop him if he is determined.
He once climbed a perfectly smooth wall over 10m high using just
his fingers and feet (don't ask how, he wont tell, and you'd
have to catch him first).
Alex doesn't enjoy the daylight, proffering the cool shadows
instead. However when night falls he likes to walk in the
moonlight, unless he wishes to not be seen, in which case the
shadows in which he walk are not safe...for anyone.
Although he looks like an evil figure, Alex does not kill or
hurt for pleasure. Instead, he only kills or hurts those who
have hurt others and only then when he must. That said, he can
put his little emotions aside and become a merciless murdering
assassin. If he does that while you are near, do not attempt in
any way to stop him, or you wont live any longer than it takes
for you to say his name.
Nothing would please him more than the chance to live amongst
the people, but not be one of them. As it stands, he is an
outcast, and an infamous mercenary. You always think twice
before you ask to hire Alex Soraxus.
History:
Little is known about the history of Alex Soraxus. As he rarely
speaks, no-one actually knows where he came from or how he
lived. What is known however, is that if you want to know where
he has been, you only ask around for the Black Ghost in the
Moonlight.
Whenever midnight comes, Alex can be seen at the highest point
he can reach, bathing in the light of the moon.
Although known by no-one but himself, Alex's house or den of
sorts is the Caves of Moonlight.
Side: Neutral Mercenary. He works for money, but only the jobs
he chooses.
Weapon(s): A long one-half-hand sword with a two-hand hilt.
(description above)
Magic(s): None at this point, although most ordinary people
would say he moves like the wind and air like a creature of
magic.
(On an additional note, if Alex were to have some sort of
musical theme or such, it would be the short Wake by Linkin Park
HTML http://www.christhefoo.com/blogfiles/01%20%20Linkin%20Park%20-%20Wake.mp3.<br
/>It has no vocals, is eerie, and the latter half has a strong
beat which would suit Alex's fighting style.)
Falcon's Character
Character Name: David Hatter
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Description: Hatter
HTML http://public5.tektek.org/img/av/1007/d21/2043/e9c9780.png
is a
man with dark brown hair and eyes. He's about 5'10" and never
goes anywhere without his brown leather jacket and tan, crumpled
little top hat. He wears dark brown pants and boots and dark
brown fingerless gloves on his hands. He has a bit of 5 o'clock
shadow and gray smudge-looking marks around his eyes from lack
of sleep. He has a British accent.
Characteristic: David is suave and smooth. He's a conman, so he
lies all the time and he's very sarcastic. He's also very
comical a bit of a jokester, and a little perverted at times.
Once in a while, he can turn crazy, mumbling nonsense under his
breath and talking in riddles. He often gets violent when this
happens, too. Despite his conman personality, he can be very
sweet and when faced with the ordeal of having to confess how he
feels to a girl, he becomes more like a boy than a man, becoming
very shy and nervous and stumbling over his words. This has only
happened once, however. David is also very secretive, never
talking about his feelings or past--especially when it comes to
what happened when he was eleven.
History: David was born before Wonderland was taken over. He
was six when the Outsiders came and his parents formed the
Resistance--unknown to him. Two years later, David's parents
were discovered and captured and beheaded. David fled, living on
the streets until he met Henri March, a boy his age who was also
living on the streets. Together, the two of them did anything to
survive--lie, cheat, steal, etc--for years. When they were
eleven, Henri began to change and turn violent. While trying to
steal food one day, he walked right up to the man selling what
he wanted and killed him. Not long after, he was captured and
taken away, leaving David alone to fend for himself. When David
was fifteen, he was found by the leader of the Resistance-who he
tried to pickpocket-and taken to the main HQ. David had to work
for the Resistance as punishment for stealing. Once there, he
met a girl who he quickly fell in love with. After joining the
Resistance, officially, David was on a smuggling mission with
this girl; due to an accident David caused, the girl was caught
and killed. David fled back to the Resistance, where the leader
beat him unmercifully. Since then, he has tried putting the
incident behind him and became a conman. He "helps out" the
Outsiders while he's really on the Resistance's side, giving
them information.
Side: The Wonderland's Resistance
Weapon(s): David has a long sledgehammer which he keeps secured
to his belt. His right hook is also extremely strong.
Magic(s): None at the moment, but will have Lightning
(fire/wind)
Hartzalcotl's Character
Character Name: Sieghart Azurfa
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Description: Sieghart is a blacksmith, able to craft almost
everything that would turned out sturdy and elegant, a meister,
at least in Ringring continent. He is also a thief, always can
escape effortlessly, tricking everyone with disguises and get
what he wants, at least in Ringring continent also. He is also a
silver claimer, a title for a person who can manipulate silver
at will. Only the blacksmith and her daughter knew about this
since Sieghart showed his skill in silver claiming when he was
seven to them.
He has a silvery, untidy, a bit short hair and gray eyes, a very
thin looking mustache hanging on his face. His posture is kind
of lacking muscles, but great strength dwells within his body.
He usually wears a white short-sleeved shirt, along with gray
jacket but sometimes he tied his jacket around his waist when
working, and a black, ragged jeans plus a pair of gray boots. He
always bring 2 things with him all the time, his hammer which he
use for his work, and his triskaidecagram; 13-sided star
necklace which made of pure silver along with the chains around
his neck. Sometimes he chew on a weed when he is back from
lazying.
When he was on a heist, he would wear a silver colored clothing.
Pointy hat with a silver feather sticking out, a tuxedo and long
cape, a pair of gloves and sneakers, and a mask that cover the
eyes part, all in silver. He still bring his triskaidecagram
necklace, but he hide it inside his cloth. All these silvery
style gives him a title of Silver Phantasm. No one knows that
Silver Phantasm is Sieghart, though.
Characteristic: From whatever angle people see him, Sieghart is
your average normal man. He is not kind nor evil, not strong nor
weak either, just an average. BUT, he is a number one
P-E-R-V-E-R-T since no one as perverted as him ever known by the
people. Almost everyone in Ringring especially Rios region knows
that Sieghart is a BIG pervert thanks to his fame as a
blacksmith. Almost every girls in Forgron have been hit by him.
History: Where he born was unknown. Sieghart was found by a
blacksmith from Forgron Town near a tree in Silverpine Forest
when he was a baby. Then he was taken up by the blacksmith and
raised as her other child. He was taught many crafting skills by
the blacksmith until he was about 16. He then start a crafting
business by himself. His products are adored by many people,
that people call him the number one blacksmith in Ringring
continent in such a young age.
One year later, he got a request for making a weapon, a sword,
two-handed one. The requester requested that he made it
resembling Sword of Fiar, a legendary sword that rumors it can
channel magic greatly especially fire magic. He said that he
can't make the sword as likely as Sword of Fiar except for the
appearance but the requester still insisted it on him. He made
the sword, in one week, and gave it to the requester, and of
course it's ability of channeling magic is like a normal sword.
Some days later in the evening, he went to the blacksmith's
house, the one who raised him before with another intention
beside seeing the blacksmith. Sieghart fell in love with the
blacksmith's only daughter, since he was seven and that day, he
went to propose her, like what he promised to her back when he
still in the blacksmith's care. He was telling his intention of
marriage proposal when suddenly, the one who requested a "fake"
Sword of Fiar, barged into the house with a mob of men, bringing
weapons. The requester said that the sword is a fake and
intended to punish him. Sieghart said to the requester that he
have said it many times that he only can made the appearance,
not the ability. The requester got madder and struck him with
the sword when suddenly the blacksmith shielded him. The
daughter of the blacksmith overheard the commotion and went into
the scene, seeing her mother laying on the floor with blood.
Sieghart went to prevent the requester also strike the daughter
but he was too late as the girl was stabbed on the back by his
own made sword, not an instant death, but still fatal. Overcame
with grief, he just sat there, laying his gaze upon the dead
bodies while the requester demolished the house and set it on
fire with magic. As the house crumbled down, Sieghart regained
his sense and brought the blacksmith's and the daughter's body
outside the burning house. The blacksmith had long gone but to
his surprise, the daughter was still barely alive, but breathed
her last breath after whispering something to him.
[center]"I will always love you."[/center]
As the daughter died, Sieghart cried and screamed. The next
morning, he buried and made gravestones for them near Silverpine
Forest. Tortured by his unrequited love, he became pervert,
hitting on every girls he set sight on.
As he almost reached 18, he heard about the "fake" Sword of Fiar
whereabouts. The requester who requested it sold it highly to an
empire at Rimlus region, stored in the empire's rumored and in
fact, unbreakable safe, the Gauss Vault. Thinking about stealing
the sword, he self-taught himself the art of tricks and
disguises and went to the vault. He successfully sneaking into
the chamber where the sword is being stored despite the heavy
security. As he found the sword, he grabbed and smashed it to
pieces with his fist and that, triggered the alarm. Flustered
about his cover would blown off, he shrouded himself with his
triskaidecagram necklace, transformed it into silver pointy hat
with silver feather, silver tuxedo and cape, a pair of silver
gloves and sneakers, and a silver mask, that covers his eyes
part. The security barged into the chamber and pointing weapons
at him, telling him to stand still. Sieghart, in his silver
disguise, smiled as facing them, pulled out a Colt Custom from
behind his back and shot the ceilings where he went to escape to
another chamber, and that was what the security thought. The
shot caused the ceilings to crumble and produced dust and ruckus
as the security went to check the hole on the ceilings. While
the security made a commotion, Sieghart sneaked as one of the
security and went to the exit. The next day, the empire went
uproar, as a news about their "unbreakable safe" were
infiltrated by a single person wearing silvery clothing reaching
their ears. Since the thief gone without a trace, people made
rumors about the thief, giving him the title of Silver Phantasm,
one who can steal anything he wants and escape with it, floating
around the world. When the rumor reached Sieghart's ears, he
laughed. Now he is lazily working as a blacksmith and spend his
time lazying on the nearest meadow while sometimes at night,

Nasira's Character
Character Name: Cerys
Gender: Female
Age: 15
Description: Cerys
HTML http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r36/kaizokuchic/Anime%20Pics/tiger.jpg<br
/>is slightly below the average height for female Nekami, standi
ng
around 5'7". She has very pale skin, almost pure white, which
contrasts with her seemingly black hair. However, her hair is
not black all the way through. Underneath her black hair, her
hair becomes gray, and gradually fades until it is ice-white.
This might be considered odd, as she is only fifteen, but it is
perfectly normal for her--her spirit animal is the Shirotora,
the ice tiger. She tends to wear dark blue or black clothes with
white accents, which she believes gives her the appearance of a
tiger. She wears a bracelet made of small, clear crystals on her
left wrist. The bracelet bears a single heart-shaped diamond,
which looks as if it is ice, not a gem.
Cerys currently has one familiar, who might even be called a
'pet'. His name is Sora
HTML http://mwahahamcr.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/griffin.jpg,
and
he is a brown griffin with a white chest and sky-blue eyes. He
is of average height for a griffin, with his shoulder height
being about 6'5" and his head at 7 feet. Sora is very protective
of Cerys, and has continually suggested that she stay away from
Korika. However, she has not been swayed by his reasoned
arguments, and when he mentioned that her father died there, she
simply said, "All the more reason to go..."
Characteristic: Cerys is usually very calm and composed, though
very friendly. She's almost always smiling, and likes to help
others. She's very adventurous, and loves to explore Chisamae.
Her lifelong dream is to get permission to go and explore
Korika. She believes that she will be able to bring back a map
of the whole island, and more information than has ever been
found.
When Cerys gets angry, she fights like a tiger. She is brave,
and will never back down from a challenge. She will drive away
anyone she believes is a threat to the tribe, and fears her
friends and family getting hurt more than she fears self-injury
or death. She has never lost a fight, not even a play-fight with
her friends. Even at her young age, she is one of the first
people to be called upon when the tribe is in danger.
History: Cerys has lived on Chisamae her whole life. She was
born to the chief and his wife. Her father died when she was
seven, as he had gone to Korika with a few of his warriors.
Cerys has not forgotten that, but still maintains a strong
desire to go to Korika. She has always had a sense that
something awaits her there. When she expressed this feeling to
her mother, she refused to say anything on the matter. The next
day, Cerys found the bracelet she wears on the ground in the
jungle. It was cold as ice, but it seemed important, so Cerys
put it on. When her mother saw it, she attempted to take it off,
but the bracelet seemed reluctant to leave Cerys's wrist.
Eventually, Cerys's mother gave up, and Cerys has not been able
to take the bracelet off ever since.
Side: Cerys doesn't take sides, though she will defend her tribe
to the death. Outside of Chisamae, she is neutral in all wars
and conflicts, though she sometimes helps one side or another
for her own purposes.
Weapon(s): When she needs weapons, Cerys wears two black
fingerless gloves. Razor-sharp steel tiger claws extend from the
gloves, which are usable as weapons if she just clenches her
fists. Nobody knows where Cerys obtained these, not even Cerys
herself.
Magic(s): Will eventually have Air and Water magics.

Characteristic: A strong, leader-type. He hardly backs down and
always leads his people into battle. He is also a great people
person(XD).

his people. As he grew, he became a natural-born leader. Even
when his tribe and another merged for lack of size, he still
stood as the leader. Only one person in his tribe wants him
dead, and when he dies, that other person is set up as next.

Carries a familiar named haru that enhances her power and keeps
her focused. Haru is a tiny bird-shaped animal that carries a
tiny knife with 3 perfectly refined crystals embedded in it,
that he uses for protection and to help Mazie. Averagelly, Haru
is perched on Mazie's head or shoulder. If there is extreme
fighting going on, Haru will hide under Mazie's cloak and be
careful not to be seen.
Characteristic: Mazie is a protective, familliar-type person.
She hates doing things unfamilliar and always protects those she
knows.
History: Was born in a town that was destroyed by the hydralisk,
Oranor. She was saved by Ibram when his army marched in, killed

forces), and found her as the only survivor. She now fights
like she is a trained professional.
