Love: the Forbidden Arts

It is the Fifth Rise to the Seventh Son of King Marion and the people of Rudaul have seen better times. The original King Marion was a savior to his people when he sent out his templars to destroy a threatening mage imperium. He put forth a law that all mages are to be sent to monasteries where they could learn whilst under the watchful eye of the templars.

Mages were, and still are feared beings, many people considering them different than themselves, like they were abominations. Others revered them for their powers and the beauty and prestige that went along with it. A high lord for one of the many cities of Rudaul was just that kind of person. He was respected by his peers, but the people he governed were another story. He was a greedy man, never really caring for his people. He was all about riches, prestige, and looks. When he had heard that the mages could be "hired out", he was all over it.

Many believed he had his own mini monastery with all the mages and templars running about his castle. His people were terrified of them all and when the lord was found dead one day, they didn't know whether to rejoice or run in fear.

The mages were blamed of course and the mages all across Rudaul began disappearing, even some in the monastery; the one place they could call 'home' was no longer safe. Templars were ordered to bring mages back to the monastery for trial, an unfair at that. Those that were caught using forbidden magic or resisted were to be killed on sight. Some templars follow the order right to the mark while others sympathize with the mages, and others see them as dangerous vermin to be rid of.

Some mages did not fear what was happening and remained in the monasteries, and after being tried, some are being offered redemption, or a "second chance", by hunting down the growing number of apostates. Others ran knowing that their trials would not be fair, they were scared, or maybe they were a little less than harmless.

Monastery mages and templars konw that relations are forbidden, but what will happen during these 'witch hunts' with both groups so far away from the eye of the church? Will the killer be found among the renegade mages, or are they being framed?

► Azadeth Norreraheal
___► Elf

яαηk: Mage
gεηdεя: Female
ρяεfεяεηcε: Bi-sexual
αgε: Twenty-four
εyε cσℓσя: Green
нαιя cσℓσя: Yellow-Green
нειgнт/ωειgнт: Five foot six/one hundred-fifteen pounds

¬ Personality: Azadeth is a curious girl, having been taken from her home, everything that she has been witnessing is new to her. She is very explorative and can be considered naive due to those traits. She's not very loud, though she isn't shy or afraid to speak; she is just soft spoken. The only time she had ever found herself to be the shy type was when a templar she fancied was ever around. She can be very self conscious, especially at that point, and is easily embarrassed.

She is very kind hearted, never wishing any harm to come to anyone. The girl may not know what became of her clan, but she knows that living in the past, living in darkness, would not be something that they would wish of her. Azadeth is the type to try to impress everyone and does as she is told. She does not like getting in trouble and is easily scared by yelling and fighting.

¬ History: Azadeth was once a part of an elven community and away from the tortures that human mages, and others founds by humans had to endure. The Templars started to get rowdy though; no new mages had been brought in and they knew that the elves were bound to have some. Being a magical race, this was an easy jump to make. Whether an official order was ever given or not the young girl does not know. What she does know is that many of her people were captured or killed during the raid one night. She isn't sure if anyone survived or not because she was the only one of the mages to make it to the monastery. Always being on the quieter side, Azadeth just went about her days studying what she had been learning amongst her people. For some reason, the humans found if odd how easily she seemed to pick up on it. She would just ignore them knowing that they did not know the ways of her people.

Azadeth merely continued doing as she was told, much like she would have done with her own people. She had to learn about the people that wore armor that did nothing but watch them, or argue with the occasional mage. Though she was told about it, the girl did not fully understand what these 'Templars' were supposed to do and her role with them.

One day a commotion began to stir among the monastery; apparently a high lord had come to make a visit. Upon being there, he demanded to see the mages, off all ranks, save for the apprentices, he had no interest in them. The elf thought he was a silly man, with the clothing he wore, the way he walked, the way he talked; just everything about him seemed silly to her. He was picking out mages, her being one of them. The group he had picked went, with an escort of mages, to his castle where they did whatever they were told. They were there for entertainment mostly, never having to do the servant work. Some mages were used for more, 'personal' reasons. The elf girl was primarily for entertainment, seeing as her abilities really just looked pretty if there was no real use for them. It seemed that she had been requested to entertain the lord and his guests more and more, though she never said anything about it.

The same armor wearing people that had been at the monastery were at the castle, not all of them obviously. There were also templars from other monasteries from different regions watching their mages. It was one of these templars that the girl had taken a fancy to. She never told anyone though, she couldn't, not after she had heard many mages saying how they were bad people. She would visit him at night, without his knowing of course. She would sneak through the halls just to watch him, just to admire him from afar.

One night the lord had requested her presence, in his chambers. Azadeth was not dumb to the fact of what this meant and she was not looking forward to it, for he was still a silly man and not the templar she had found. It wasn't like she had much of a choice though. She was on her way to his chambers, right outside his door infact, when she decided to take a quick detour. Quickly making her way to the templar quarters, she went to see if her templar was on duty or not, she was caught. A booming templar voice echoed through the halls and scared the elven girl. Rather than staying, she ran. She thought she had been caught, her fancies found out, so she ran. Footsteps could be heard from behind her but she ran until she was far from the castle and still she ran. She had no idea that the lord had been killed while she was supposed to be with him.

¬ Specialization: Spirit Healer
¬ Likes: Nature, being outside, the elements, dancing, rain, animals, seeing and experiencing new things
¬ Dislikes: Fighting, rudeness, harm, death, large cities

αgε: Twenty-One (appears about eightteen)
εyε cσℓσя: Golden
нαιя cσℓσя: White
нειgнт/ωειgнт: Five Foot Six inches/One Hundred Forty Pounds

¬ Personality: Hana is a very sweet girl with a kind disposition, she can be feisty, she is a rather happy person so it is hard to see her as a threat. She tends to be shy around others and people that she does not know, is a caring, loving person who is friendly. Shy is rather timid and speaks ina small voice, for a mage that is suppose to be confident, well she isn’t very confident in the very less.

¬ History: Hana was raised as a mage in a rather remote place, she knows about the templars and how they hunt down her kind but she never really ran into them while growing up in the forest. Since she was part elf and part vampire she can‘t really be with the elves since she isn‘t completely elf but that never hurt her, after all she rather stay in her seclude area even if she was curious about the rest of the world. Safety is far more important, but that didn‘t mean that she didn‘t watch people as much as she could, always wondering when she would be found or caught, or even if she would find love, which was a feign concept.

She maybe part vampire but she is just mainly anemic, she doesn't really suck blood unless she uses her magic, but even then she doesn't like it, she can be out in the day light even though the sun hurts her eyes, with her pale skin, she is sensitive to the light, but all in all she is pretty normal compared to other vampires.
¬ Talent: Primal
¬ Specialization: Shapeshifter
¬ Likes: Singing, music, nature
¬ Dislikes: hates fighting, mean/rude people, when she is made fun of, when her friends are made fun of
¬ Odd Quirks: she has to drink the blood of a fellow mage (hope that works lol)

нειgнт/ωειgнт: Five foot nine inches/ one hundred thirty-five pounds

¬ Personality: Naomi was always a quite person she didn't really talk but she never really had anything to say, when she did speak her voice was soft and had a musical tone to it. She was always happy and had a smile on her face, as if nothing can ever bring her down. She is very energetic and outgoing, she would normally be found dancing our humming a light tune. After her parents went missing she never changed and continued to practice her magic without a care.
¬ History: Naomi's parents were both mages that escaped the town before things got out of hand, her father was a Entropy specializing in Blood Mage and her mother was a Primal specializing in Spirit Healer. They lived deep in the forest so Naomi never really knew much about what was going on around them, her family was a self sustaining hey grew their own food and raised their own animals. She loved living like that, she didn't have a care in the world growing up and never took anything for granted. Her mother was glad when she found out that Naomi took to Primal, her father then started to teach her how to use Blood Mage magic. She would normally dance around their little home using magic on a little scale and her parents would just watch, they never told her about the town thinking that it would only make her fearful.

Naomi was in her late teens when she went out into the forest to gather berries like she normally did, she would use a little magic seeing as it was fun to her. When she got back home her parents weren't there, but she took it as they went out for a walk and didn't mind but when they didn't come back she started to worry. Her parents had told her that if they didn't ever come back that she was to remain at the house and continue practicing her magic, so that was what she did. She was still herself knowing that her parents had always warned her about it but they never told her why. She still lives in her families home still unaware of what is going on in the town.
¬ Talent: Primal
¬ Specialization: Blood Mage
¬ Likes: Outdoors, dancing, and learning new new things.

αgε: Eighteen
εyε cσℓσя: Blue
нαιя cσℓσя: Blonde
нειgнт/ωειgнт: Five foot Seven inches and One hundred and Twenty Pounds

¬ Personality: Shiloh is very relaxed. Sometimes she can have a sense of humor but only when it is absolutely the opportune moment. Unfortunately with her relaxed state comes her quiet side. You will find out why she is very quiet in her Historical report but for now just know that she doesnt like to talk much unless she knows she can trust the people she is around.
¬ History: Shiloh was born into a loving family. Her father was a warrior and her mother a mage. Unfortunately when it came time for the law to be passed about the mages needing to be under control her father didnt know what to do. Well before that, her mother had been teaching her a lot of different types of magic. She was a primal mage whose specialization, though she did not dare to show her husband, was blood magic. She would teach little Shiloh her magic out int he countryside where they lived. There was plenty of woods to block the act of teaching her the forbidden magic and their excuse was a convenient one being a primal mage and all. Her father never suspected a thing.

The one thing that was odd about the couple was that her father was human and her mother was a neko. Now i say was because they are no longer with her anymore, but we will get to that. They had fallen in love in the woods when her mother was playing with her magic there and he was doing an initiation into the Templars. They fell in love and built a house out next to the woods so that they could live in harmony together though her father would have to go to the castle in order to work. A few years ago though, the law was passed that any mage had to be taken away due to the death of a king. Her father panicked knowing that his wife and beloved daughter would be taken away and he was the one that was suppose to do it. So, instead, he broke away from his order with the templars and hid with Shiloh and her mother. Now the templars had already been on edge since the two of them had gotten together because no templar was suppose to have any relationship with a mage but now they were after both her father and his family.

Shiloh's father hid her with her mother in the cellar of a cave that they had built long ago, but did not join them for there were troops coming and he had to lead those troops away. Her mother wanted to go back to her own tribe of Neko, so soon after they were hidden, the two of them left for the land for which her mother's family was at. Unfortunately, they had to hide plenty of times along the way due to the Templar patrols. Unfortunately, her mother was caught one day getting breakfast for the both of them and was taken away. Shiloh now moves from place to place trying to get information on the mages, with her mother's staff in hand thats all she can think of. Due to all of these events, she does not talk to anyone.
¬ Talent: Primal
¬ Specialization: Blood Magic
¬ Likes: Food and animals
¬ Dislikes: Being locked up or caged, clowns, and giant spiders.... AND DESPISES THE TEMPLARS
¬ Odd Quirks: Upon using her magic, Shiloh gets dizzy spells and usually passes out if she has used too much. Most of the time she is dizzy she will sort of hallucinate as well

αgε: Twenty-three
εyε cσℓσя: Red
нαιя cσℓσя: Blue
нειgнт/ωειgнт: Six foot one, one hundred and seventy pounds

¬ Personality: Slightly sarcastic when irked or in a bad mood, but won't be outright mean. When not in a mood, he can be quite friendly, so long as you're not a templar. Since they're responsible for shutting him in somewhere by force, he holds a grudge. Even if they did help him advance in his studies and he is learning more, it's hard to get rid of a grudge with him. He's observant of others and sometimes studies situations. Other times he can barge right into something without even considering another side of things.
¬ History: As far as he knows, he was taken in as a child by a mage who lived alone at the edge of a forest. He was taught for a few years about how to control and gain spells. Since he was basically a human and didn't have as much advantage to channel mana, or magic, he had to work extra hard. Money was short on some days, so he did whatever he could to gain money. Nothing short of stealing of course. Eventually however, he was found out by a couple of templars that he was an apprentice when he'd gone to a village and try to gain some spare money. Ever since then, he had bee under their watchful eye, making him absolutely hate it. He has yet to be sold to a lord, as he's rather difficult when the time comes for him to be considered to be released to someone else. So for now, he is forced to live in the monastery. He specializes in Spirit since he does like to help others and sometimes it wasn't one of the most picked of the branches. However if the time comes for it, he wanted to know how to fight and not be useless in a battle.
¬ Talent: Spirit
¬ Specialization: Arcane Warrior
¬ Likes: crafting, learning new spells, animals, meeting new people
¬ Dislikes: Some Templars, being contained and treated like dirt, unable to really understand people.
¬ Odd Quirks: For the duration of his recovery, Kane isn't really able to hear properly as it goes down by half of what he is normally able to hear, which cause many to think he's ignoring them or making fun of them. As he regains his magic, he gets a bit of his hearing back.
¬ Weapon of Choice: claws.

Aelyn DirthitrynX

[IMGRIGHT]http://i876.photobucket.com/albums/ab327/miss_SMG/RolePlay%20Characters/Anima__Daniella_by_Wen_M.jpg[/IMGRIGHT]"Not unto us, o Lord, not unto us, but unto your name grant glory!"

► Aelyn Dirthitryn
___► Human

яαηk: Knight
gεηdεя: Female
ρяεfεяεηcε: Bi-sexual
αgε: Twenty-two
εyε cσℓσя: Purple
нαιя cσℓσя: Brown
нειgнт/ωειgнт: Five-foot four/one hundred-twelve pounds

¬ Personality: Aelyn can come off as stand-off-ish on occasion, but it is more that she is a focused person. She takes her job seriously and does not like to see others slacking. She pushes herself to be the best that she can be and expects others to do the same. On most occasions she pushes herself too hard, and though it is plain as day, she will never admit to doing such a thing. She has a lot of drive and determination. She is one of those Templars that has 'married' their job and will not bend the rules for any reason.

Often being teased about it, Aelyn has learned to humor her fellow knights from time to time by acting 'normal'; well, what they view as normal anyway. Her upbringing made her who she is, though this 'acting' has begun to make her more and more curious as to what is out there. She would never venture out to learn on her own however, she is far to prideful for that. Rather, she would just quietly tag along with the other knights to experience new things, but her thirst for it has just been growing.
¬ History: Aelyn is the eldest child in her family, and a mistake at that; or so that is what her father says. Her father wanted a strong baby boy for his first, an heir to the family store and all that they have. Instead he was given a daughter who couldn't cook or perform the simpliest of household tasks. She was a disgrace to the family name, according to that man at least. He had planned on having his son taking over the business, not her, so she did the next best thing. It was always an honor to be accepted among the Templars, so that was just what this mistake did. She trained herself for months without her family knowing and tried out for the job. She was one of the few accepted and upon learning this, her father did not know what to do. He threw a rage when the letter came to the house and later that night beat the girl for doing such a thing behind his back; he was drunk though, she knew it.

Time passed and Aelyn got the call to join the Templars; packing her stuff, her father stopped her. He apologized for that night and admited to panicking because he did not want such a life for his daughter. He wouldn't stop her and the girl went on; she was going to make a name for herself, she vowed herself that much. She wanted to be the daughter that no father could look down on, that was her goal. Once within the monastery and training, she quickly rose through to her Knight-hood and remained stationed there until the high-lord was killed. She was not surprised after he carelessly took in a bunch of vermin that didn't deserve to live, they went against all teachings. Once that happened, she was one of the few the remained behind to take care of trials, awaiting the day she receives the order to go look for mages.
¬ Talent: Archery
¬ Specialization: Champion
¬ Likes: Competing, being praised, self-accomplishment, going out on the town with the others, just experiencing new things
¬ Dislikes: Mages, her father, the smell of fried cheese, and cheese in general really
¬ Weapon of Choice: Bow

► Lerieh Highmaker
___► Drow

яαηk: Commanding Officer
gεηdεя: Female
ρяεfεяεηcε: Heterosexual
αgε: Two hundred fifty-eight
εyε cσℓσя: Cadmium Lemon
нαιя cσℓσя: White Smoke
нειgнт/ωειgнт: Six feet, three inches/ one hundred thirty-four pounds

¬ Personality: xXxLerieh is a very knowledgeable person. which can be a bit strange for a Templar to be. But being born a Drow, it is simply in her nature to learn. Many at this point would call her a fountain of useless knowledge. Although it is simply a creative nickname due to the numerous random things she simply knows off the top of her head. Lerieh is also a bit of a hot head. Meaning when provoked in the right way, she easily snaps. Soon after can enter into a blind rage. But the right way normally is not hit with her. Lerieh is very good about controlling her anger. She believes Entering into her rage is simply a last resort. When she is calm, relaxed, and given time to rest Lerieh can be a very sweet girl.
xXxWhen it comes to her job, Lerieh honestly puts it second. She has left the church suddenly in the past to return to a crisis in her family. Her village is constitutionally under attack by high Elves. Forcing Lerieh to always keep an ear out. This does not mean she is not loyal to the church. Being a Templar for decades, Lerieh has more than proved herself. Anyone who questions this she is quick to put to rest. She worries often for her village. When it comes to being around others, Lerieh is perfectly fine being with them, or away. She is not dependent on her fellow warriors. But she is also quick to aid at the same time. One can say Lerieh is a bit of a power keg. Calm most of the time, but when she does go off it normally isn't pretty.

¬ History: Being born a Drow, right off the bat Lerieh is believed to be an evil magical being. Both of which is not true. Because she is a darker elf, she easily noticed outside races are very careful around her. At the same time, being born an elf, usually she would be born with some sort of magical ability. Not Lerieh. She is the only daughter to her mother and father. Both of her parents had very slight magical abilities. Her mother could heal fevers, while her father could grow seeds. But Lerieh was born with nothing. Often feeling left out by her peers. She still had a pretty good life.
xXxBecoming a Templar was nothing less than easy for Lerieh. She was trained since birth to become a warrior. An assassin some would call it. Once turning sixteen, she was recruited into the small army her village set up. A war broke out just a short while later. Between the high Elves and Drows. Lerieh would work with a special group established by the elders. They would be the ones to assassinate any leaders of the enemy. She was still very young in this point in her life. Often being put down for her attitude. There were even a few points Lerieh would simply errupt into a blind rage. Her worse probably being when her older brother, who was also in the small army, was killed in front of her eyes. Not only was Lerieh able to take down a good portion of the army by herself, but she was also stuck in bed to recover for a little over a month after the incident.
xXxIt came time to the war to end when a single Templar came into the village to break it up. Forcing a tready upon them all. Lerieh admired how swift it happened by his simple presence, and by the age of thirty-two Lerieh took the test to be able to become a Templar. She was very young for someone of her race, but a bit older compared to some of the others taking the test. She passed with flying colors, and became a Recruit. Lerieh did not excel threw the ranks like most of the more recent Templars would believe. Instead she took her time to hone her skills. Mastering them slowly, making sure her moves were perfect. Lerieh is not greedy though. If she wanted, she could possibly be a Knight-Commander. But instead Lerieh holds herself back. Mainly because it probably is not a very good idea having a berserker being that high up.
¬ Talent: Dual Weapon
¬ Specialization: Berserker
¬ Likes: Sparring, Learning, Daylight, Night, full moons, Mages
¬ Dislikes: Mages, too much blood.
¬ Weapon of Choice: Two dirks, Two short swords.

► Helena Elizabeta Grimshaw
___► human

яαηk: Knight
gεηdεя: female
ρяεfεяεηcε: heterosexual
αgε: twenty-one years young
εyε cσℓσя: sky blue
нαιя cσℓσя: white/blonde
нειgнт/ωειgнт: Five feet, six inches/ one hundred and fifteen pounds

¬ Personality: Helena, or Lena as she is known, is a rather unassuming young woman. She is hardworking and dedicated, and has a very strong sense of right and wrong. She‘s extremely precocious, and wiser then her young age lets on. She will not hesitate to step up and defend the innocent. The recent death of her eldest brother hit her hard, and she sometimes comes off as distant and cold.
¬ History: Helena is the daughter and younger sister of templar knights; you could say it runs in her family. When Helena was born, her mother was overjoyed- she finally had a little girl to keep her company on those long days when her father and brothers were away. However, Helena didn‘t seem to understand what was expected of her, and more often then not could be found outside play-fighting with her brother Alexander. She would do as her mother asked of her, and could do a decent job of the household chores she was given, but no matter what her mother did there was no taming her wild spirit, and she usually could not sit still long enough to finish her chores.

Her mother, exasperated with her child, finally went to her father with the problem. He took one look at the nine-year-old child, with her wild hair and dirt-smudged face, and then looked at her mother with a smile.
“The answer is obvious to me, my dear,” he said, picking the child up in his arms and setting her on his shoulder. “She’s to become a Templar.”
It was only meant as a joke, but those words stuck with Helena. She determined that she would become a Templar knight, just like her brothers and father, and no one could change her mind. Her mother finally gave her consent, and Helena went to training. There, she blossomed as her potential was realized, and thrived off of the constant action. Her journey to knighthood was by no means easy; where her brothers had excelled, she struggled. But she never gave up, and that was, perhaps, her most endearing quality. The recent death of her oldest brother, Markus, has obviously hit her hard; instead of hindering her, however, it drives her forward, as she strives to be everything that her brother was.

¬ Talent: Dual Weapon
¬ Specialization: Reaver
¬ Likes: Sunny days, reading, small animals, and sweets. She also admires painting, but never had the time nor the patience to learn the art herself. She absolutely adores her brother Alexander.
¬ Dislikes: She‘s claustrophobic and thus can‘t stand small, tight spaces. She also dislikes spiders, but can tolerate them most days.
¬ Weapon of Choice: twin blades

► Alexander David Grimshaw
___► human

яαηk: Knight
gεηdεя: male
ρяεfεяεηcε: heterosexual
αgε: twenty-four years young
εyε cσℓσя: blue-green
нαιя cσℓσя: white-blonde
нειgнт/ωειgнт: six feet, two inches/ one hundred and thirty-five pounds

¬ Personality: A confident guy, Alexander can sometimes be seen as a bit cocky. He tends to act as a lone-wolf, even shunning the company of his younger sister at times. He’s the triple threat- charming, handsome, and clever to boot. He’s a bit of a playboy, and he cracks a lot of jokes, but he takes his job very seriously when things get down to it. He inherited a strong sense of justice from his father, but any resemblances attitude-wise end there. He’s a bit of a smart ass, and isn’t afraid to speak his mind. He‘s extremely protective of his sister, although he spends more time being scolded by her then protecting her.
¬ History: Alexander is the middle child of the Grimshaw siblings. His childhood was bland, to say the least. Growing up he adored Markus, but as the years wore on Alexander became tired of being compared to “The Golden Boy,” as he called Markus. Thus, Alexander became the ecaxt opposite of Markus- where Markus was polite and soft-spoken, Alexander was bold and a bit rude. Alexander wasn‘t a bad boy, really, he just wanted to be noticed as an individual.

No one expected Alexander to follow in his brother‘s steps, but when the time came he surprised them yet again- he joined the Templars and rose to knighthood within no time, to the surprise of many of his peers (and even his instructors.) Of course, he got in trouble along the way, but he always strayed just shy of getting into any serious trouble.

The death of Markus has, if anything, made his attitude worsen. He uses his harsh humor and casual devil-may-care attitude to distance himself from the pain of loosing his older brother.
¬ Talent: Two handed
¬ Specialization: Champion
¬ Likes: disobeying orders, sunshine, being outdoors, apples, making fun of people, his sister, being in the spotlight, and girls. Lots of girls.
¬ Dislikes: being compared to Markus, stupid people (he has very little tolerance for them), pain (he has a very low pain tolerance.)
¬ Weapon of Choice: a broadsword

► Fenris
___► Half Elf

яαηk: Slave
gεηdεя: Male
ρяεfεяεηcε: Straight
αgε: Unknown; looks to be in his twenties
εyε cσℓσя: Black; no pupils
нαιя cσℓσя: White
нειgнт/ωειgнт: Six foot, two inches and one hundred and twenty-five pounds.

¬ Personality: After a sickening experience with mages, Fenris seems to hate every kind of magic. Despising those who deal with its limits, the elf is particularly cynical to anyone who gets close enough to talk to him. Not known for his friendships, but rather, his unceasing manner of disappearing, the elf finds his way around getting to know people well. He is most certainly a criminal on both sides (any side) of the law.
¬ History: Once a slave to a human woman whom he knew as a friend, Fenris was devastated when betrayal twisted his life. Though he was a "slave," the male found himself to be a kind of manservant for the woman - she was a Creed. Knowing that family as a good and noble breed, Fenris served them until the woman died of old age - and then moved on to serve her daughter as well. When the young miss Creed had children, twins, Fenris found his life destroyed. When an unfortunate event destroyed the woman he served, Fenris tried to save her from Jessica Creed's surge of power.
The result bore strange repercussions: Fenris bears markings of magic on his skin that have granted him the unnatural ability to phase through solid objects; however, the even also caused him to lose all of his memories. The limits of his phasing power are unknown, but Fenris uses this ability mostly as an unexpected weapon, phasing through individuals and solidifying, killing them violently.
He has fled to many cities as a fugitive, constantly hunted by the elves (who wish to kill him for his "abomination") and humans (who wish to harness his abilities) alike. The markings burned into his body causes him pain, making him guarded against physical contact; however, it is more of an aversion to them being touched rather than physical pain.
Because of his unpleasant experience with Jessica, he detests mages. He feels that they would do anything for power, and, at one point or another, inevitably succumb to the temptations that demons and blood magic have to offer, no matter how pure their intentions are or may seem.
¬ Talent: Two-handed
¬ Specialization: Reaver
¬ Likes: . . . fireflies.
¬ Dislikes: Fenris has a deep hatred for mages of any sort, good or bad. Templars and their like are also among his most hated people.
¬ Weapon of Choice: A rather large blade is sheathed on his back, and in addition to that he can use his own tattoos to become "intangible," which allows him to take his opponents by surprise.

The greenery flew by the yellow-green haired girl as she ran; she wasn't sure how long it had been since she had stopped, but still, she did not feel safe. It had been three days since the Templar had caught her in their area and she still thought herself to be in trouble, that they were looking for her to punish her for her infatuation. The sound of flowing water came to her pointed ears as Azadeth slowed her pace to a jog, then finally a walk. Her breathing was slightly heavy, though it was still even; such activities had been something she was used to when she was with her own clan.

Making her way through the trees and brush, the girl found her way to the source of the sound; a small creek. Taking in a slow breath, scents that she had missed for years filled her once again. Taking her time in walking to the water's edge, her feet made only the faintest of sounds as she moved. Kneeling beside the creek, her still white gown, one that just seemed to always stay clean, lay over her thighs as she leaned over, putting her weight on her knees to look at her reflection. The clear water was a pleasant sight to see; her own fair skin and golden-green eyes looking back at her.

She said nothing as she dipped her cloth baring hands into the cool rush, bring the cool water to her lips. The elven girl was unaware of what had actually happened at the castle; that the high lord had been killed. She had just ran when she was yelled at and never stopped, save for to sleep and whatnot. She was unsure of the fact to if she had any one chasing after her or not.

Resting back on her thighs, the girl let the warm breeze cool her sweat damp body; the scents soothing, the sounds peaceful. Azadeth knew that she was going to have to come up with some sort of plan, after all, it wasn't like she could keep running forever. Though from what she knew, she was a mage without a Templar and she had been told that was bad, very bad. Pulling her staff from her back, the girl lay the delicate looking item on the ground. For now she was going to rest.

----------

Foot steps echoing through the halls, the young Templar did nothing to quiet her walking through the monastery. The loud 'chang' noises were accompanied by all the other Templar's that were making their way through the halls. Things had been busy lately, though this busy wasn't what Aeyln had been hoping for. Trials were going on as of late to all the mages, no matter where they were at the time, for a high lord's death. The man was foolish though; no matter how many Templars were around, the heathen beings would still find a way to act. After all, in a big place where number were even, no Templar was sure of having everything under control.

The girl dropped her head for a moment, her long brown hair cascading over her shoulders. This was crazy to her; she should be out hunting mages, not here babysitting the ones that hadn't ran. Granted there were Templars bringing in new mages everyday, but they went to trial and the knight never saw them. This even proved that these people, if you could call them that, were not responsible enough to watch themselves and keep themselves under control. They were a waste of breath and a waste of space in her eyes, but the law said that they were permitted to live, so she did her job the best she could.

Lifting her head back up, her purple eyes traced over the cloth-clad casters with disdain. Some seemed smug, others seemed scared, it really was just like any other day in the monastery to them. This aggravated the Templar who wanted nothing more than to hunt these people down at this point. For now she was to report to the chamber hall, there were new trials going on and she was to be there. She was hoping to get new orders, but one could only hope.

03-21-2011, 01:43 AM

Kane had awoken roughly that morning. For some reason everyone of the Templars was on edge and ordering about some trials for everyone. He was, of course going to be questioned. It had taken a few days to get to him. It had only been a matter of time for them to get to him. As he was heading calmly with a templar on each side, the blue haired male looked around the area. There seemed to be a lot of mages frightened. Most, he knew had heard the rumors about going into the trails and never coming back. He had to wonder if he was going to disappear.

It would be a great disappointment to him if he never got out of this place alive. Of course he was not guilty of anything. He had been here under strict watch the whole time. Like many of the others. But since when is anything ever fair around here? he thought with a slight sigh. Reaching the area where they were supposed to be tried, he was shoved to stand in line among some of the others. He gave a slight glare at the Templar before he just settled himself. No need to put anything against him.

01:57 AM

Naomi was dancing around her farm house using the simple magic that she knew, she was going to make some tea but she realized that she need water. She picked up her staff and a bucket then turned and walked out the door humming a light tune to herself, it was a wonderful day in her opinion. She walked threw the forest still humming her light tune and using magic, she marked a tree every so often with a burn mark in the shape of her hand so that she wouldn't get lost trying to find her way back. When she got to the creek she leaned her staff against a tree and leaned over and put the bucket in and pulled out some of the water. She didn't notice anyone around so she put the bucket down by the tree and started to pratice more of her Blood Mage maigic that her fater taught her.

[Sorry its a little short I just didn't know how to come in]

03-21-2011, 01:53 AM

Futher away from the spot that Azadeth had stopped at for a rest, there was a mage protecting herself from a wild creature whom had come upon her while collecting some food, so when she heard the animal sound. Her eyes went wide, pulling the staff from her back as she turnned to defend her self, but she had used all her magic on the creature, so she had no choice but to flee from it.

You could hear the rustling of the leaves, the cracking of twigs breaking, the destinct sounds of running, the forest seemed alive with the sound of a troubled person. The white haired girl,burst out of the underbrush, her face was flushed, her golden eyes were wide as if with fear. She frantically searched around before she ran across the clearing and dashed through the woods, a mage, she needed a mage, but she couldn't find one anywhere.

She burst out of the forest and to a place she has never seen, a town is what she thought it to be called, her nose twitched for a moment as if smelling for something, at that moment she stopped, it seemed as if the world had gone silent with the appearance of this strange character. She looked around in a frantic manner, then it was like it all stopped, no movement came from her at the moment as she went as still as thre trees behind her.

Her nose twitched once more before her eyes went blank and they locked on a person before her, she didn't know who it was or what they really look like but one thing was for sure, she knew it was another mage. She moved over to the person as if she was about to faint from exshaustion, she stopped in front of them, looking but not looking before she fell against them, seeming to hold them close before her eyes closed and she shunk her fangs into the side of the person's neck, taking as much blood as she needed.

02:43 PM

It was just before dawn when Lerieh had finally made her way into in the city. She was forced to leave again. This time getting permission. Although, even without permission she would have gone. She had been gone for maybe a little over a week. So never very long. Although this time it was for something far different than her normal reason for leaving. Her mother was going to have a baby. Which for her small family was nothing less than great news. After all between Lerieh and her older brother, they had about seventy years difference. Her mother always had trouble in that way. She celebrated with her family, and in another year she would go to meet her little brother or sister. But now it was back to work.

The Drow entered the small city. It was far too early for any business to be open. But she could small fresh bread being made. She went to the baker, knocking on the wood plank that covered his store window. The baker of coarse came out from the door of his home. Very confused by the sight of the Drow. She was well known in the town. But depending on the person her persona was not very well liked. She was very intimating after all.

"I am sorry to disturb you Sir. I know you are not open just yet. But may I buy something to eat?" She asked sweetly. Bowing to him. The baker nodded, heading back in and coming out with a loaf of bread that did not sell yesterday. She paid him with a gold coin, then was simply on her way. She got to the monastery, where her heels clicked against the ground. She ate a few bites of the bread before tucking the rest into the small bag on her back.

Down the hall of the monastery, she could hear the silent footsteps of others. Although Lerieh knew there would be a meeting. She needed to be a bit early for. But Lerieh was also in no rush. She would have preferred to go to her room and rest for a short while. But instead she continued on her way. Her black armor matched her skin nearly perfectly. Her skin held the slightest bit of blue to it. But it was still very black like the night sky. She also towered over everyone for the most part. Some of the men were close to her height, but none really surpassed her.

She looked up down the hall. Seeing a young Templar, Aeyln. "Morning Miss Aeyln." Lerieh said to her.

The sun shone through the window of an exceptionally disgusting motel room. Unfortunately the girl sleeping in it had to sleep there due to the templars insistence of tracking down mages. Yes, the girl is a mage. Her staff leaned against the wall as the blond girls eyes started to open. A pretty large yawn came from her mouth as she sat up. Morning air filled her lungs, as she put her arms down. Her hands fiddled around above her head seemingly scratching it until her hair finally fell out of its knotted mess and a pair of fuzzy triangles seemed to pop out of the messy hair.

The girl was not anything other people had seen before. Her species was sort of a myth to other people because they usually kept their distance, but she was walking around the towns still. Shiloh was her name, which seemed kind of silly seeing how she was part animal and that was what people usually called their pets.

Well Shiloh got out of bed and grabbed the staff that leaned against the wall. She had paid the innkeeper a lot of gold in order to make it so that he didnt tell the templars where she was hiding. Hopefully, the man was true to his word though it did seem that he was. The only problem with bartering an innkeeper like him is that if the templars give him more coin than she did, he would easily tell them where she is.

Making her way down the stairs, the girl noticed that there were in fact templars there which made her stop in her tracks. With her staff on her back, there was no way of hiding that she was a mage. She went back upstairs tot he room that she had hoping that the man had been true to his word and didnt tell them anything but that was unlikely. She left the key on the bed she had slept on and opened the window. Unfortunately, there was no way to to climb onto the roof or jump down into the square below. She would have to go down the stairs and walk out casually, defending herself if there was a fight.

Leaving the key on the bed, the neko girl walked down the stairs again. The templars seemed to still be in a heated argument with the innkeeper. She slipped passed them towards the door until someone yelled, "THERES A MAGE." She froze and turned around to see the Templars looking at her. One of them dropped the innkeeper and the others began to walk forward. Shiloh took her staff off her back before started to run away. If she needed magic, she would need her staff, but it was still a little hard to run with it. The templars chased her through the city, until she reached a monastery which she of course ran into. What a big mistake. There were tons of templars in there. She could see that one of them stood out of course. A tall black woman who wore black armor that almost matched her skin. She looked back at the door trying to see if she could still make it out. She quickly made for the door again and ran around the building as the Templars chasing her screamed, "GET HER."

(Wow... that was longer than i was hoping for....)

[[Sigh, I have no idea how to bring my guys into this]]

03-22-2011, 02:20 AM

Have to get back before they notice I am gone..

Hurrying quickly, a tired and hungry mage-boy wandered through the town. Ever since the beginning of the mage trials, Zykaer was kept under careful watch. He wasn't all that powerful, more of a healer than fighter, but with his ability to manifest himself in a chosen form, he wasn't easily trusted, despite his gentle and sheepish manner. Any hoot, he was the finicky type to not like to eat in front of others, so whenever the boorish brute that kept watch over him fell asleep, he'd head into town.

Moving quickly, he believed he had luck on his side until he heard a sound and paused. He could feel weakened energy nearby, and he knew it belonged to a mage. Turning, he saw a small girl stagger towards him, looking utterably exhausted. Before he could ask her what was wrong, she took hold.

It was then he felt something painful and winced, then realized she was a night species. And just when he thought he'd make it back home before he was caught alone.

03-22-2011, 05:03 PM

Mages were in line, much like they all should have been, but alas ~~many~~, most were still running about with other Templars at their heels. Though Aelyn's eyes were bright in color, the emotions that lay behind them were dark, oh so very dark, but even further there was something else, something more, something she wouldn't willingly admit. Templar pairs were coming and going as they brought more mages to wait in line for their trial, it was the newest arrival that had caught her eye.

This pair had brought with them a blue haired male, one this particular Templar had recalled seeing about the monastery. He was just a mage, never left the building as far as she knew. Yet, it wasn't so much his appearance that had kept her eye on him, it was how he held himself. He wasn't happy, but no mage was at the moment, which to the brunette was how it should be. When the pair put him in line and went to go gather more, it was the brief look in his eyes and on his face that caused the young woman's blood to boil.

"You will not look at a Templar Knight in such a manner!" Aelyn yelled as she took a few large steps to put herself only inches from the mage. He was taller than her, much taller than her, but in her eyes he was nothing, he was a creature that was too pathetic to even watch over himself. Even with the height difference, seeing as the girl was shorter than most, especially when it came to males, she never held herself that way. In her mind she wasn't short, she was level with everyone, save for her superiors, and when it came to mages, she did not find them as a threat, not in a monastery at least.

"Do you hear me mage?" She then said, her voice still loud causing the other mages in line to jump and shy away from them. "You and your kind are walking on thin ice so there will be no such actions taken against the Templar Knights or your punishment shall be severe!" It was at that point a cool voice hit the human's ears; a surreal soothing tone and instantly the girl's blood went cold.

"Good morning Commanding Officer Highmaker," Aelyn replied, her voice dropping to much quieter tones as she turned quickly to face her superior officer. Commanding Officer Highmaker was even taller than the mage she had been yelling at, and the young Knight knew better than to get on her bad side. While she had never seen the Drow fight, she had heard stories and longed for the day when she could see it.

The brunette had been going stir crazy within the confines of the monastery, and with that outburst she had a feeling that Lerieh would say something about it, it was her job to anyway. Just as the girl expected the reprimand to come, it seemed that the day was going to be a busy one. A young girl with cat ears came bursting through the corridor, she was a mage no doubt and the Templars that had been pursuing her seemed to be losing their ground.

The blond girl ran by, and without though Aelyn pulled her bow from its resting spot on her back and nooked an arrow into place. Pinning shot would work nicely here, she thought to herself as she drew the bow taunt. People were darting out of the way of the girl so the Templar did not expect much interference. "By the power of the holy powers," she said raising her voice, a notification to those in her path to avoid that area. It seemed to work as they all looked at the girl with the decorated weapon. "You have been ordered to surrender to trial!" With those final words the girl let the arrow fly towards the fleeing mage.

03-22-2011, 05:22 PM

Shiloh could hear the woman yelling her to stop in the name of her holy powers. There was a whistle of air coming towards her and her staff started to glow. Her skin became rock hard using her Rock Armor spell. Unfortunately the arrow caught her shirt and pinned it to the wall. She had to yank the arrow out just before the templars got to her again. Instead of running, she stood her ground and the ground began to shake as if there was an earthquake that knocked everyone off their feet except for her due to her cat like reflexes from being a neko, but she was off balance.

The spells she used made her a little woozy due to her odd little quirk when it came to magic. Regaining her ground, she made for the door that she was very close to and jumped over a few mages that had been put there since they were captured. Her tail flowed behind her as she kept running. Her steps were a little off balance due to the odd quirk and the stone armor was gone now. The earthquake was over done which gave everyone a chance to catch up with her. Quickly she hid in a bush thinking that since the ground was stone that no one would be able to track her. The bush was still close to the monastery but she had to get rid of the dizziness or else she would be caught even easier.

03-22-2011, 05:25 PM

Taking slow deep breaths, Azadeth lay back on the grass for a moment, just enjoying being outside again. The Templar Knights wouldn't be anywhere near here, or so she had hoped. Maybe it wasn't so much that, but more that her elven roots were coming back to her; being one with nature was such a calming feeling.

The forest was alive today, which for a girl that had been away from it for so many years, was such a good feeling to be had. The sun rays were warm, the breeze light though carrying the scents of life and the summers warmth dancing along with it. For a brief moment, it was like the situation at hand was no longer a threat, like the elf girl had returned home and she was going to forever safe.

It was then that she heard quick movements, like a frantic animal running through the brush. Sitting up suddenly, the girl listened. It couldn't have been an animal, or they were highly panicked from the sounds of all the branches they were running into and over. Her hand quickly came to rest on her staff as the girl jumped to her feet. She stood without moving as the sounds rushed around her; her senses heightened in fear as to what could be happening. The remembrance of the situation at hand returned to the girl.

The sounds soon passed, apparently whatever it was, was not sticking around. An idea that seemed to be good in this situation. Moving along with the river, Azadeth continued her trek to where ever it was she was going. She still did not know, though she did know that getting away from the Templars was her main priority.

Moving quickly, though keeping silent, much like her race, the girl continued moving. She heard moving not too far away and instantly slowed her pace. Ducking behind a tree for cover, she peaked out using it and the surrounding foliage as cover. Her long yellow-green hair fell over her shoulders, falling past her short dress as she leaned more and more. When her eyes landed on the creature, well, being, making the noises, her eyes widened.

"Don't do that!" Azadeth exclaimed in a loud whisper-like voice as she emerged from her hiding spot. There was a girl there, she was bleeding, but it was more than that; she was a mage. This only meant one thing, and the elf knew she must have been right; the girl was a maleficar. Now standing in the clearing, a white glowing light surrounded the girl's hands as she then opened them toward the human female. It was nothing big, just a minor healing spell to heal the wounds and stop the bleeding.

"Templars are about," the elf said softly as she took a few steps towards the girl. "And blood magic is a crime, one much worse than being a mage." Her eyes were full of concern, though she did not know the girl, let alone know how she was going to react.

03-22-2011, 10:20 PM

Naomi smiled thinking back on the memories of her father teaching her how to use Blood magic right by this river, she danced around the clearing with her staff. After a few more tries she stopped and stood in the middle of the clearing and letting te wind blow through her hair. She was about to start again when she heard a voice, she turned to the voice in shock seeing as it was another female. She saw that her hands were glowing and then started to back away from her and said "What are templars?", she took a few more steps back while saying "Blood magic a crime? But I have been learning it all my life". She was confused she didn't know where this person had come from or who she was, Naomi bent down and picked up the bucket of water and then stood back up never taking her eyes of the girl. She tightened her grip on her staff and then said "Who are you and where did you come from?", she looked at the girl and thought I have never seen another person in these woods before so how come I see one now and she is warning me for some rule that I have never heard of.

03-22-2011, 10:44 PM

Kane blinked a little as he saw a girl start to yell at him. Of course, he was sure she was insulting him. He didn't back away, only look at her curiously. Nice? Did she say something about him being nice. That couldn't be right. It was rather funny. Since she had no idea her words were falling on deaf ears in a way. He was about to question her about what she was saying, but... Figured that might get her even more pissed off. They shouldn't have drained him of his magic. Now he couldn't really listen correctly. Or be of service. He just gave a small nod, in hopes of her getting off his back. It seemed that soon after she yelled at him, something caused her to back down. He looked over to what she was seeing, and noticed a rather tall female. Maybe her superior. Of course, now that the girl's tone went quieter, he could hear even less. He had a brief look of annoyance before sighing. Of course he could talk, but... why give them the pleasure.

Some of the Templars thought him both a bit deaf and a mute while he lost his powers. he wouldn't give them the satisfaction of his words just yet. It was more amusing that way. all of a sudden he saw a girl with cat ears burst in and try to leave yet again once she realized where she was. His eyes widened a little. Oh dear.. She's going to get caught. he thought to himself. It was a pity. He saw the arrow fly to the girl, but she used her powers to set herself free. He almost couldn't suppress a grin at that. He did stumble slightly at the ground shaking, but otherwise kept his ground.

03-22-2011, 11:45 PM

The girl with the white hair, blinked as realization came to her face, she instantly let go and backed away from the person, seeing how it was a male that she had bitten. She placed a hand over her blood covered lips, tears sprang to her eyes and started to slowly run down her pale cheeks. "I am sorry." she said to him in small voice as she slowly stepped away from him, keeping her eyes locked on him.
She didn't mean to suck people's blood, she was able to control her self and suck animal blood when she really needed it but for some reason when ever she used her magic she had no choice but to find a mage and drink thier blood, her teacher would never tell her why this was. "A..a...are you okay?" she whispered to him, her face was flushed because she was so shy, she didn't know the person but she felt bad for having attacked him like that out of the blue.
She fidgetted a bit as she looked aorund, keeping her distance as she tried to make sure he was okay before she ran off back towards her home, to hide with in the trees, she started to freak out some, scanning the area, letting her gold eyes landed on the man in front of her with the lavender-teal hair color.

03-23-2011, 03:15 AM

Azadeth breathed slowly as she looked at the girl, the way she was holding herself told her how unsure of the situation the girl was, which was a bad thing. "My name is Azadeth Norreraheal, an elf from a once proud clan," she said with a low bow causing her hair to fall over her shoulder, her staff being pulled across her body. She ran her tongue over her lips before straightening herself up once again. She did not move closer to her though, she knew the stories she had heard of blood mages, and though she did not know it they were true but she didn't really want to press the matter.

"Blood magic is deemed illegal by the church and country," she said calmly, her elven accent clear as day. "And Templars are people whom have been trained to make sure people like you and me follow the laws they set for us." Though most seem to would rather want to kill us, though she didn't feel the need to scare the girl by telling her that part. "There may be a chance that a group of them has followed me, but this I am not certain. If they find you then they will try to take you back, but with knowing blood magic, I do not think they would risk taking you in." The elf girl's brow furrowed in apology.

"I can leave you now, you may be safer that way. Just stay alert and know that it is may be better not to fight them." Azadeth's tone became soft, as the look in her eyes reached her voice. "Don't give them any reason to hurt you, because they will not hesitate to." The girl then took a few steps back the way she came. "If you find that you need help, send a bolt into the sky and I shall try to find you." Though she was not sure how successful such an act would be.

03-23-2011, 03:39 AM

Naomi looked at the Azadeth an said "Naomi Nara" she paused "Your a mage too?", she was glad to know that she was a Mage like herself and was glad to meet someone new. She put down the bucket then said "Why is it illegal my father never said it was" she looked down at the ground then said "Would that be the reason my parents went missing?". She looked up and smiled then said "You know so much about these people where did you come from?", she walked a little closer to her leaving her staff against a tree. She then looked at her and said "How would they know that I learned Blood magic?" this confused her knowing that she couldn't tell what magical powers other mages had. She then took a few more steps closer then said "They would kill me just because I know a certain type of magic, that doesn't seem fair". When Azadeth said that she could leave now Naomi ran up to and hugged her saying "No, please come with me back to my house at least for some tea. It's been so many years since I have seen another person and you seem to know a lot about what is going on". She stepped back a little and then said "Sorry about that" she smiled and then looked down at the ground then back up at her smiling.
