The misadventures of a motley pair OOC (not accepting requests at this time...)
Ok, so here's the run-down... Two friends, having grown up together, have decided to leave the small city of Joruman and make their fortunes as adventurers. Their families are by no means poor, but the friends have grown bored with life in the city. Having stocked up on supplies and whatever else they found nescessary, they've headed out towards the next city over, Aramance, in the hopes of finding adventure... but adventure just might find them first. :twisted:
Here's the link to the RP: http://www.menewsha.com/forum/commun...post1766938359 Use the format I use for your bio... Ok, here's my character's bio: Name: Laramie Sunriver Age: 24 Race: Halfling History: Laramie is the son of the Halfling merchant Dayle Sunriver, who took up residence in Joruman after he retired from adventuring. His father's business does pretty well for itself, and the family is known throughout the country as honest and excellent merchants. Laramie grew bored with city life, however, and decided to advenure as his father had done years before. He's teamed up with his childhood friend Salvira, as well. Personality: Laramie is a pretty outgoing person in general, although he is generally polite around people he hasn't known for very long. With his pals, though, he's a crazy little bundle of energy. Has a bit of a flair for theatrics, as well. Skills: Laramie is an excellent acrobat, having taught himself the skill for something to do when he was bored. He's able to do many acrobatic feats, from swinging through trees to tumbling between someone's legs. He's also a very innovative and creative engineer, and delights in building things such as catapults and forts that he and his friends often hang out at. Laramie is also a very good horseman, or more acurately dog-man, and is often found riding his faithful companion and mount, Bruno, a large white Mastiff that has been with him since he was old enough to ride, and that his almost as tall as Laramie himself! Appearance: Standing at 3'4" tall, and weighing in at 36 lbs, Laramie stands only 4" taller than his dog, Bruno. He has a muscled and lithe form from the many days he's spent outside hiking and gallavanting around the near countryside. His clothing is made of deerhide, containing many pockets and loops to store and hang stuff on. He also wears a black leather belt from which hangs his two special daggers, along with his tool pouch. A quiver of arrows and his bow are strung across his back. He has long, black hair, which is often tied back into a ponytail to keep it out of his eyes, which are light brown. He has an assortment of earings to wear in his left ear, and often does so. Gear/Weapons: Laramie always carries with him his two daggers, which were given to him by his father upon his 21st birthday. The daggers are enchanted, so if he throws one at something (which he often does), it will return to his hand like a boomerang. He has his shortbow, and a quiver full of about 40 arrows. His backpack was given to him by a friend and businesspartner of his fathers, and although it's a normal sized backpack, there is enough room inside for him to be able to lay down inside of it with room to spare when it's empty. It also never weighs more than 25 pounds at any given time. In this backpack he carries all sorts of useful objects, and anything from his bedroll to a shovel to god knows what else is in there. He just never seems to fail to have something that can help any number of situations. |
character: Salvaria (Savi) Jaqux
race: human age: 19 EDIT: characteristics: she's got straight, light brown hair that comes to her shoulders, and bright green eyes that light up in the dark. she's of slender built, not ripped but not fat. Yet she is strong. she's extremely agile, flexible, and fast. she wears a brown shirt and shorts that come slightly below the knee, and has a dark, mottled cloak with a hood. She wears greek-like tie-up sandals. She has a sling that goes across her back. and she's five ten Personality: she's polite and generally nice. she's extremely loyal to her friends, and would give her life for any of them. she obeys the law all of the time. when someone yells at her, she cries because she was only trying to do the thing that they asked anyway. she almost never gets angry; she gets sad and confused. she has a somewhat high pain tolerance. She's a huge tomboy, though, and isn't afraid to get dirty [oh, shut up, you know what I mean] History: She lives with her mother Aria. She never knew her father, but he left her and her mother a good sum of money he obtained from somewhere. Her mom doesn't really like to talk about her father, so even Savi herself doesn't know much about him. Talents: She's extremely calm and tolerant of Laramie's ways, which many would consider extremely irritating. She is extremely good with animals, and seems to understand them in ways others cannot. She is interested in everything, and loves to learn. She especially loves making things out of any materials she can get her hands on. Weapons/Gear: She can use a bow, but prefers to use her long wooden pole. It's smooth and its almost as tall as her. She fashioned it out of a stick she found. It's lightweight, but she couldn't break it if she tried. She has a ball of yarn that is seemingly endless, and super strong. Her cloak can blend in with almost any foliage. she found it in her father's trunk of old stuff along with the ball of yarn. And the bracelet that she always wears. It seems to store energy, but she's not quite sure of all of its abilities. |
Okay, nix the invisibility cloak. that's WAAAAY high level magic. The cloak could do something else, say, be used as camoflauge, but not invisibility.
|
Fixed. re-read it.
Changed the cloak to be mottled, allowing for camoflauge (that's spelled wrong, says firefox). And any other gripes? |
Um... just a heads up, we're going to have a potential combat on our hands pretty soon, so... yeah. just warnin ya.
|
Sounds like fun. I picked the perfect time to make Savi unawares, huh? :D

Name: Cynicus Leafstep
Age: Looks to be about 30 or so, but is actually closer to 210 abouts. Race: Elf History: Cynicus is an Elf druid, taking care of the forested (and for that matter, most of the other) land in the area. Not much about his childhood is known, but he was a close friend and adventuring companion to dayle Sunriver before he retired. He knew that Dayle had a child, but has never met him until now. Personality: Very reserved in speech, except for when protecting the natural world or with his band of "nature's warriors". His trust is immeasurable if you can win it, though. He appreciates a good jest, and often enjoys contests of physical prowess such as archery or wrestling. Skills: Cynicus is a master forester and ranger, able to navigate and survive in almost any type of terrain in any conditions. As a druid, he knows many spells for healing, buffing his band, interacting with animals, and interacting with the natural world in general. Also, he is an unsurpassed archer, being able to sever thread with an arrow at 600 paces. Appearance: He stands at 5'3", weighing in at 100 or so lbs. His armor is black, emblazoned in green with a pattern of vines. An ornate longbow and quiver are slung across his back, and his mane of shaggy brown hair is held back with a black strip of cloth. His eyes are the clearest blue, seeming as cold as the barren tundra when he wants them to. Gear/Weapons: His armor is enchanted, allowing him to disapear and reappear a short distance away in a flurry of leaves. His quiver is also enchanted, seemingly never running out of ammunition for his bow. |
If it's alright with you guys, may I join? Even though it says not accepting requests... I kind of got a PM from someone... *looks at Cadone*
|
Sure. Post A bio. Would you mind helping me with the storyline? talk to me on fb
|
No problem. I would love to! May I use my own format for bios? You don't have one listed up there. :P
|
yeah i do.... copy my character bio format.
|
Ok here she is.
Name: Sanafia Baldwyn, Sana for short. Age: She looks a lot older, but she's really only 18. Race: Human. Well... Mostly. History: Sana used to be just a normal human in the city of Aramance. Just a normal human, apprenticed to a normal mage... That is, if normal mages experiment with creatures of legend... You see, Sana's mentor, Haggial, was obsessed with creatures of legend. Dragons, unicorns, fairies and such. Because of this, he was determined to create them. And Sanafia was following close behind. One day one of his experiments, a particular one to recreate a dragon, went wrong, as they so often did. However this time Sana was standing just a little too close and... Well, in a way, he succeeded. Of course, he didn't actually create a dragon. No. He just infused Sana with some dragon genetics, and she will never be the same. Personality: Used to be entranced with magic, wanting to learn everything about it that she could. Now, however, she is aggravated more easily, acts more childish than before, and she has this weird obsession with anything shiny... Skills: Can breathe fire, but only small amounts, and only for a couple minutes at a time. The flame has only ever been big enough to light small fires, or very slowly cook food. Maybe... 3, 4 inches long? Also she has the ability to sense when something "shiny" is close by. Such as precious gems or minerals. Also money, since money just so conveniently happens to be shiny... Appearance: Sana's deep, forest green eyes, the pupils once a normal, circular shape, are now reptillian slits. The forest green still encloses her iris, but now fills her entire eye much like a snake's. Her limbs and bones are stiffer than before, making her more durable than an average human. Also she can see farther and hear better than any human ever could before, and is more limber, being able to perform acrobatic feats more easily without any training. Yet, despite all this, her 5' 10" frame is still formed like that of a normal human. Golden brown hair falls down past her shoulders, reaching towards the small of her back. Her face shows evidence of maturity and experience, even though the way she acts would lead you to believe otherwise. Her fingernails are slightly sharpened, but she keeps them closely trimmed. Usually Sana will be wearing something that covers most of her body, such as somethng with long sleeves and long pants. When someone asks her why she dresses like this, she would shrug and say it's because she's cold. The truth is that she never gets cold, or hot, and she wears the covering clothing because her skin has become more sensitive since the... accident. And she still hasn't gotten used to the fact that she can feel something moving from the disturbance of air. Also she wears gloves at all times. Even when she eats. Gear/Weapons: Sana doesn't actually like fighting. Or at least she never used to. Nowadays she's more aggressive, and believes in a good fight. She has come prepared for just such an occasion. A sword rests at her hip at all times, and a pack on her back carries all she needs for daily life. The pack is seemingly small, due to the fact that it tends to collapse n on itself, and is usually slung over one shoulder. However it is really bigger than it looks, and is known at times to weigh more than 50 pounds. ---------- Oh I see it. Sorry I read it wrong. |
Bio accepted. post away! :D
|
Yayz!!! :XD So I have an idea for entering...
|
Ok. There is now an established posting order. Diamond, then me, then salvaria. You complain, or go out of order before 3 hours has past from your last post, you get ejected :twisted: . Not really, but still, it's distracting when people post out of order and hog the storyline. Oh, and I was wondering if we could all post likenesses of our charries? in here, not in RP. It could help a bit.
|
Likenesses? As in pictures?
And oh, btw "great one". You forgot to list the posting order :P |
fixed.
|
Sweet!!! Really? I'm first? XD
|
|
Did you do that on Tektek.org?
|
Yes... Yes he did...
|
That place is the best ;D
|
Absolutely!!!
BTW Here's Sana. http://public5.tektek.org/img/av/100...05/3d8e343.png Except the eyes, which are reptillian. And the hair is a bit darker blond. |
haha yep. I've had lotsa practice, too. get back on FB and I'll pm you a link to something.

According to my understanding from Gabs (nickname :P ) the bracelet basically acts as an energy storage device, with the added bonus of a minor shield attatched. You conciously put energy into it, but this process in incredibly draining. And then you use the energy either as a substitute for your own (such as when Savi was sprinting through the woods) or by manifesting it into a shield. The shield's power can vary, but as long as you keep in mind the stronger the shield, the faster it drains the energy of the bracelet.
