A group of scientists discovered a way to send people into time. Unfortunately, the process destroyed any surveillance equipment, and the rats they tested on couldn't say anything about what happened to them. So, they quietly gathered volunteers to send into the future.
Unfortunately, the machine didn't work as they thought. Instead of sending the people one hour into the future, it sent them into an alternative dimension, which they don't know how to escape from. Because they couldn't go back, the scientists just kept sending more in, hoping for a success story.
This world is full of creatures and beings of legends - elves, centaurs, etc. Technology is non-existent, but magic stands in its place.
There are several kingdoms (six, in fact), but the two largest, most powerful ones (Vaellor and Respia) are at war. The volunteers teleport into the Vaellor, completely lost and rather disoriented.
And it begins...

Username: Amelia
Name: Jay
Age: 23
Sex: Male
Kingdom/Earth: Vaellor
Status: Soldier
Race: Demon
Power: Controls fire
Weapon: A thin blade and a small dagger hidden in his boot.

Bio: He was born and raised in Vaellor, only son to two very wealthy parents. He spent his childhood being a bit on the spoiled side, and when he turned sixteen he knew that it was time to grow up. He joined the army and has spent the last few years training, perfecting all of his skills. Both of his parents are still alive and well, but he has not seen either of them in a few years.
Extra: Sometimes his emotions, if they're strong enough, can control his fire powers.
Respia
Quote:
Username: Lady Ligeia
Name: Kei Myuro
Age: 24
Sex: Questionable. No one really knows... he is, however, male, as is relatively obvious from his voice..
Kingdom/Earth: Respia
Status: Assassin for Respia
Race: Gancanagh
Power: Poisoned skin- if anyone touches his bare skin for a prolonged period of time, they will get severely poisoned. Brushing across his skin will get a minor poisoning, usually only enough to make someone dizzy for a short period of time. He also has slightly increased speed and agility.
Weapon: Two throwing knives and a shortsword.
Appearance:
Personality: Kei cares very little for anything besides his assassination missions. He is often brusque and rude to anyone who tries to talk to him, and has an extremely short temper. When he is actually on a mission, he loses even his bad attitude, becoming a blank slate, knowing nothing but how to complete his mission.
Bio: From birth, Kei was raised to kill. His father was an assassin, and the only option was for him to be one as well. Luckily, he proved an adept and eager student at the art of death, proving powerful in hand-to-hand combat as well as swordplay and knife-throwing. Now, he is traveling, on a mission to defeat the enemies of his country... and that should be simple, for him.
Extra: n/a
Thainne
Quote:
Username: Remaro
Name: Maleki (Malek)
Age: 19
Sex: Male
Kingdom/Earth: Thainne
Status: Guide and hunter
Race: There’s no name for his race, however he is part snow leopard and part human.
Power: Increased senses, especially sight and hearing, slight manipulation of ice and snow (he can also make it form if there is enough water) He is also slightly faster and stronger than an average human due to being part snow leopard.
Weapon: His claws and fangs and a twin pair of daggers.
Appearance:
He has snow leopard ears and a tail, the fur runs along his back and just over his shoulders, thinning out before it reaches his elbows. His feet are also elongated and he tends to walk on his toes like a cat does so rarely wears shoes.
Personality: Like snow leopards he can be quite a recluse. He despises being in crowds or small spaces, preferring to have numerous escape routes and large open spaces around him. Malek is distrustful and wouldn’t hesitate to abandon someone if it meant saving his own neck. However, he takes debts very seriously. If he feels he owes you, he will refuse to leave your side until his debt is paid. Malek can be fiercely loyal, he is calm and patient, never one to rush anything if he can avoid it. He is also rather quiet, at times you may not even notice he is there, able to blend in with his surroundings easily. But then, what use would a hunter be if they couldn’t hide, if they weren’t quiet and if they weren’t patient? Occasionally his more bestial side will slip out. He becomes dangerous to those around him as he can’t tell friend from foe, only if they are a threat or not. In this mentality, he could easily tear a ‘friend’ apart in his attempt to escape the situation. Malek has good control over this side of him though.
Bio: He was born and raised in a mountain clan of other snow leopard humans. They were a small clan, priding themselves in their ability to practically melt into the mountains and snow, invisible to the outside world. However, on a hunt one time, they had to go further down the mountain than they usually went. This was Malek’s first encounter with other creatures that were not considered food or clan members. He became steadily fascinated with these creatures and the different lives they led. At the age of sixteen, he decided to leave his clan to go travelling. The first real city he came to was Thainne and it was here he decided to make his home. However, he does journey to Thainne’s allied cities frequently, working as a guide and protector for those also wishing to do the journey.
Extra: His nails look human. However, like a cat he has retractable claws, so when he wishes to, his nails grow longer and sharper, becoming his claws.
Merkianna
Quote:
Username: Amelia
Name: Elliana (el - e - ahna)
Age: 19
Sex: Female
Kingdom/Earth: She's from Merkianna, but travels a lot.
Status: Unknown
Race: Elven
Power: She can control the wind and communicate with animals.
Weapon: A scythe
Appearance:
Personality: She's very gentle and calm. She is very easy to get along with, and does not mind being in large groups of people, however she does travel alone. She is always kind to those she meets, and appears to always want to help. However, some seem to notice a slight mischevious side to her.
Bio: She doesn't have memory of either of her parents, and was raised by an ederly woman in Merkianna. The woman never knew who Elliana's parents were, because she found her abandoned in a forest when she was three. When she was young she thrived to find out who they were, and during her quest befriended one of the older soldiers from Merkianna, who took a bit of a fatherly role for her, teaching her how to fight. He was killed by Everreame soldiers. Since then she has given up on her journey to know her parents, but travels between the six cities quite often, though no one knows what she is really up to.
Extra: It seems the only thing she really loves is nature.

Bio: Has only known the life of the mercenary since he was a child. As soon as he was old enough he was taught to wield a blade and kill. He travelled quite a bit with the band that had trained and raised him like a family until they were killed in battle. He then went on to travel as a loner taking various jobs that nobody else would accept making a name for himself.
Extra: Has golden eyes and claw like nails that can be used as a weapon if need be.
