~Reinoa~; A whole world centered around elemental magic

Reinoa is a modernized city surrounded by a circular wall to protect the citizens from the dangers of the surrounding forests. The city is separated into four different districts and each district has a guild with a guild council who helps to make political decisions in Reinoa. Each district resembles an element: Ignis is Fire, Aquea is Water, Terra is Earth, and Ventus is Wind. In the center of the city is where all the necessary buildings are: the shopping centers, the market, hospital, a park, a public library, and the Academy.

At the Academy any child at age 8 is required to attend. They stay in the Academy dorms during a 4 day week and then are allowed to go back to their homes on a 3 day weekend. At this academy mages are trained in the art of magic and learn how to control their powers and also to determine which element they will specialize in. By age 14 every student should have an idea of what element they want to study, at age 16 every student will begin classes to perfect their elemental magic and prepare for end of the year exams so that by the graduation ceremony at age 18 you will be accepted into your desired guild and specialize in your element. After the graduation ceremony you are released from the Academy and sent to your respected guild to get the guilds mark imprinted into your hand symbolizing your loyalty to your element and district.

About 250 years ago there were two more districts in the city of Reinoa called Lux (Light) and Atra (Dark). Unfortunately the two guilds councils disagreed with each other which resulted in a massive war between the two districts. After 3 years of war they all soon died out resulting in the distinction of the use of Light and Dark magic. This caused a frightening imbalance in nature, but after a few years the citizens of Reinoa adapted to the changes and soon forgot all about the two lost magic’s.

After about 10 years of war and panic Reinoa soon finally was able to relax until there was a new discovery. Someone had discovered that if you combined all types of pixies (excluding black and gold) to make one elixir you will receive amplified powers, but this resulted in the corrupted race. Since the corrupted purposed a threat to the city the guilds all agreed to build a wall around the flourishing city to keep their citizens safe. This resulted in isolation of the citizens from other races that lived in the woods such as vampires, werewolves and elves. Still the city continued to grow and stays prosperous throughout the years.



Race Information (Keep checking to see if I add a race or edit anything in this list.)

Basic Spells (Here I will list different latin words with their definitions and you can use these to make spells. If a spell has a star beside it that means that it is an elemental spell. If you are specialized in water you can only use the elemental water spells. Check this list periodically to see if I made any changes or addded any spells.)

Hmm, alright let me get this straight. Light and Dark are off limits?

That is what I would like, but I had an idea. I was thinking that my character couldn't specialize in an element and then one day she uses the unknown magic of light. I was thinking there could be another character in this RP who uses Dark magic, but keeps his/her power a secret and then latter helps my character to controll her power maybe? If you have any other ideas or suggestions that would be great since it is all very sketchy. If we do this idea then we would need at least two other characters who are experienced with light and dark magic so that they can learn from them or they can both learn on their own with help from eachother.

That sounds like a good idea, since I am more od a dark user anyway and am used to being secretive. If thats fine with you, that is. Although the user can help you, is it ok if he/she isnt a mage, or does he/she have to be human?

Oh and also, I think it will be more interesting for this character to be very experienced with dark, and then have to try to help out your character even though they are complete opposites.

Oh yea I forgot to mention that in the description. Only mages can use magic, now if there was a half mage and half something else they can have the capability of using magic in general, but absolutely not elemental magic.

Alright Im pretty sure I will play a girl, since to get along and not be as awkward, I would say that she should be a girl. So as a rundown, a dark mage the age of nineteen who is not at the academy anymore and in hiding visits the academy again ( ill figure out the reason ) and she had only graduated because of her strong control of magic other then elemental and her strong senses.

She finds out about the student who has no distinct element and this gets her interested, so she comes and visits you, and finds out some excuse to check the other girls palm and finds the light insignia...

Good?

That sounds good :) but keep in mind that if my character already has the mark of light on her hand that means she has already been specialized so we might need a reason for that as well.

Maybe they can both run into one of the corrupted and then they both use their power like it is a sudden change.

Wait, explain that a bit more? You've lost me. Where would that come in? Do they just suddenly out of their day...BAM! Start fighting a corrupted?

Well they could either be out of the city and in the forest or the corrupted find a way into the city/someone is creating corrupted in the city. That can be our conflict.

Ah yes, someone who is creating corrupted in the city would be a good beginning conflict for the beginning of the roleplay. Good thinking!

Yes yes, but I need a reason :/ and then I would need someone who is willing to play a evil character. Maybe they could be looking for greater power since they couldn't specialize in any element at all. Or they could have been a survivor of the war and found a way to keep themselves alive? I'm not sure.

Mmkay, so this is really interesting to me, as I love things that are this engrossing and containing this amount of detail. Few questions. Are all the races open to play, such as the corrupted? And if so, would any level of corrupted be open to play, or just the level 3's or 1's or something?

I'm not necessarily set on playing a corrupted, but it looks intriguing and I'm interested. I'll probably be a vampire or corrupted.

Also, where do the corrupted live? Do some of them blend into society like the level 3's or are they mainly randomly dwelling in the wild?

Ah that's true. But this man here seems to like the evil category, no?

Yeah, I am a bit. :3 I dunno why, but I like playing evil. Haha. I'd be down for playing the villain in whatever regard you wish.

Well I love being evil in some kind of way, as long as I contain some darkness within me, I am satisfied.

Looks like we got a taker and I was thinking that some people could play the corrupted if they would like, but they would have to be in hidding if they stay in Reinoa and if so then only the lvl 3 can really hide since they look the most human. As for how they live they usually live randomly through the forest, but sometimes a lvl 3 will take a leader role and create a clan.

Now I also want to point out that you can play more then one character if you wish :)

I think I have a pretty good idea of who I'll play as the villain, going along with the whole "creating corrupted" idea if that's what you want as the main conflict. Let me know if you have any direction or stuff like that. Otherwise I'll post my character later tonight.
