[Thakaltas]

Name: Thakaltas

Race: Enkidukai

Personality and Alignment: At least partially insane. Tends to see everything as a threat, and thusly tends towards killing over asking questions. Chaotic Neutral.

Background: Lived just outside of Hydlaa for much of his life.

Weapon: Mainly the more interesting polearms (halberds and bills). Can fight with a sword, but usually doesn\'t.

Armor: Medium armor, to allow him to move quickly as well as providing decent protection.

Strengths: Fast, agile. Good with a halberd. Infravision.

Weaknesses: Weak against magic in general. Not very resilient.

[Saethan]

(it\'s been a while since I\'ve participated in a RP thread, but I\'m going to give it a shot )



Name: Saethan

Race: Diaboli

Personality and allignment: Appears calm, quiet, neutral from the outside, often bored.  Is able to very convincingly act like he cares about you(although doesn\'t find a reason to put on this act very often).  In reality usually couldn\'t care less if the people he interacts with were alive or dead.  Chaotic neutral, as he isn\'t really out to cause any harm but his careless use of the dead can seem evil, also has a small obsession with obtaining more power.

Background: Was abandoned at a very young age, came upon a house in the middle of a forest with a very elderly man in it.  He took Saethan in, probably happy to have somebody to talk to.  He claimed to be a mage, and told story after story about both horrible and wonderful things he had done.  The stories(particuarily the darker ones) fascinated Saethan and led him to research the dark magics, research that started with scrolls he found in the man\'s house after the man had finally died of old age.  

Appearace: Wears a heavy hooded cloak that shades his face and hides his horns and tail, easily mistaken as a Ylian unless you get close enough to make out his face.  His cloak is designed to make him as un-noticeable as possible(barely noticeable if standing still in a shadow),  people tend to notice Diaboli and he doesn\'t like that.  Carries a staff that appears to be nothing more than a walking stick, with a large red prism on the top of it.

Strengths: Highly adept at dark and red magic.  His tail is also abnormally strong for a Diaboli and can be used to suprise enemies should they get close.  Has no reservations against raising the dead to fight for him.   Has natural charismatic abilties like all diaboli do, but rarely uses them except in dire situations or for controlling undead.

Weaknesses:  Not very strong, has no fighting skills beyond the suprise factor he gets with his tail sometimes.    Overall weak at close range.



This might need a little work(i.e. \'came upon a house in the middle of a forest\', how generic eh? ).. just now made it up because none of the old characters I\'ve used for other stories sound interesting right now.

[neotepz]

Name: Sengoku

Sex/Race: Male - Human

Age: 24

Personality And Allignment: Amazingly Calm and some would say unemotional, Lawful - Good ( he would say honourable - good).

Background: Upon his birth, he was born into an age old tradition of his village, that tradition was honour. For 16 years he trained to use the katana, the tanto, the wakazashi before being considered a man in his village, after this, 4 years later he left to seek his honour yet he never returned to his village. This training with weapons and the code of honour, this teaching gave his villages warriors a set of codes to live by, elevating them above hired killers. Those who followed the code in the true sense, never considered their own lives when entering battle, showing what they felt was true honour and loyalty.

Weapon: Katana with ancient runes running along the blades centre, also next to the Katana is his secondary weapon which is rarely drawn, the tanto (a small knife, similar in style to the katana).

Strengths: Agility, Strength, Reflexes, Code of Honour

Weaknesses: Weakness to most magic although the swords runes seem to protect him from week magical attacks and spells.

Anything Else: His most distinguishing feature is the scar that runs from the top of his right eye, all the way down his face, although he can luckily still see the scar is easy to see and he has so far never told anyone why he has such a scar and it may also lead to some questions about why he never returned to his village after this scar had appeared... He also seems to have some skills with the arts, such as poetry, writing, drawing, painting.

[Taldor]

Did anyone notice almost all characters have more a less the same weaknesses (Bad in/against magic or physically weak)?

[neotepz]

amazingly, yes.

i think the weakness in magic was to stress the weakness to the mage, seropot or something like that (soprry bad with names)
