I used this character for Yog's old Lands of Darkness LoZ RP as well as one of the CoH's, so I figured I'd try to use him again. Keep the string going. He's been great to use for em.







Name: Tenkai Hitomi
Gender: Male
Age: 33
Race/Ethnicity: Half-Hyrulian, Half-Lekadian

(Since I don't wanna make a post for the Lekadian race. The Lekadian's are an old race, slightly larger than humans, that are known for their special ability to create barriers of mental energy. The barriers are based on the age and intelligence of the user, explained below. The main thing that differentiates humans and Lekadian's are the markings all across their body, that could be described as elemental runes. The runes always glow the color of a Lekadian's magical affinity)

Magical Affinity: Fire

Appearance: He stands at 6'4" and weighs 194 lbs. He is somewhat tanned and has short cropped black hair, hazel eyes, and a full beard w/ sideburns that he usually keeps shaved to a stubble. His body has odd, yet distinct, glowing red markings on it, mainly the torso region of the upper arms, chest, sides, and back, due to his Lekadian parentage. He wears a brown, usually unzipped coat that has no sleeves over his chainmail shirt which is over a black T-Shirt. For pants he wears some black pants with greaves covering his calves. On his arms where the sleaves of his coat should be, he wears bracers for his forearms with black fingerless gloves that are covered with chainmail on top. He has a fair amount of muscle on his arms and legs, but doesn't really have a six-pack on his stomach, it's just kinda flat right there. He does have the occasional fat in some places, but he doesn't really care because it's not enough to look bad.


Equipment:
1. Shiyabuki Dai-Nodachi: The most sacred weapon for his people, it was said the sword was wielded by the first of his people's kind, and that only members of the royalty can wield it. He stole it before he left on his journey. The handle is oak, wrapped with steel wire, with a black leather cover. The pommel of the sword is a small face with small horns and is gold steel. The sword's guard is simple and circular with two slits. One on the left and one on the right side. The blade itself is black, yet extremely shimmery like it has glitter all over. It was forged from molten metal mixed with mythril and diamond dust, causing the blade to become much more durable than most, and slightly even more sharp.

2. Shiyabuki Mail: The armor that was worn by the first King. It was forged with a mix of Diamond Dust, Mythril, and Steel, making it much more durable than the average metal, yet just as flexible as it was meant to be. The mail is extremely bright and shimmery silver in color.



Racial Ability - Mental Barrier: Non-Elemental: Rank 1: All Lekadians are born with this ability, but it's extremely weak at first and grows stronger as they age and become more intelligent. The older and more intelligent a Lekadian gets, the more powerful their barriers become. As Tenkai is a half-Lekadian, it's been rather more difficult for him to control this skill, causing it to be much weaker than it would be for full-bred Lekadian's at his age. The drinking doesn't help much either.

Techniques
1. Hell's Messenger: Fire: Rank 3: Uses his fire abilities and his booze in combos to create large explosions.

2. Dragon Flame: Fire: Rank 1: Breaths a stream of fire from his mouth like a dragon, the stream of flames can be amplified through the use of his alcohol supplies.


Inventory:
1. Shiyabuki's Satchel: One of the sacred items of the Lekadian people. A bag that can carry near limitless amounts of items. The bag is said to be enchanted. However, all Tenkai ever really uses it for is booze storage. It's where he stores all the booze that he drinks and uses for his attacks.

2. Near infinite supply of booze. Don't worry about me abusing this with Hell's Messenger, cause it's an issue that was proposed to me before. Give me a chance, and if I ever over-abuse it, I'll kill off my character and make a new one. I mean, it is like his main attack, but still.


Background: He was born to the King of Lekadian people, a race far away from Hyrule. His mother was a captured Hyrulian slave the king kept in his harem. He was a Hyrulian half-breed, and was constantly shunned by his people, even his parents. However, there was one among them who liked him, and cared for him as if Tenkai was his own son. His name was Teuki, and was Captain of the Lekadian Royal Knights. He practically raised the prince, taught him to fight, was his bodyguard, was his tutor, and eventually when he was old enough, his drinking partner at the bar. However, the Lekadian people and the King didn't approve of the Captain's care for Tenkai, and had him assassinated. Tenkai went into depression, drinking more than usual, flirting with every girl, and peeping at night and such. The assassination of Teuki was the last straw for him, so he lost it, and became how he is. Few nights later, he had stolen the most precious objects of his people and fled to Hyrule, to fight, treasure hunt, and learn the ways and history of his true people, people he knew would accept him. His days in Hyrule have been, eventful, to say the least. He's usually so drunk that everywhere he goes, he ends up getting himself into trouble and either gets captured or escapes, but the punishment for his drunkeness is never very serious.

@Coifo: Sorry, I mixed you up. But then again I couldn't decide until I saw the character anyways so it likely doesn't change much. As far as the character himself goes, I have little issue with the half-blood prince. Admittedly the naming practice is a little odd, but I suppose every fictional world requires a little asian country somewhere. However we do have a small issue involving the moveset. You have 5 listed ranks. The starting amount is 4. So something needs weakened a little. Also Hell's Messenger probably needs to have a limit placed upon it. Do the explosions have a similar magical force to tossing a bottle of oil into a fire? Throwing a classical LoZ bomb? A powder keg? Could it hit an area the size of a bathtub? An entire room? An entire house? Answering questions like that will be relatively important for balancing. But otherwise welcome to the experience.

Does the princess hold any personal ambition to the throne, or is she a tool? In any case, once captured, the civil war should be over - the prince could force her to forsake all claims to the throne, or even execute her. So I'm not sure she should be captured.

I'd say that the Princess holds little ambition toward the throne. Unlike our Zelda, this one doesn't really have the experience with the Prince to decide she would be a better option. Imagine a more submissive princess with the nobility pulling her strings. But I do agree that having her being captured is a massive blow to the rebellion, one that is so overwhelmingly damaging that they cannot dare risk waiting to see what will happen to her. Obviously someone will attempt to rescue her, either by sieging the city OR by sneaking in and recapturing her for their cause... hopefully someone with a nostalgic bone in their body can guess that the Princess is our Herald for the story and the events she causes will be what fundamentally sets the story upon it's path.

Lol NT, the Asian name was just because this is an OLD character, like, the third character I ever made. Everything I did back then had an Asian name. And Hell's messenger has two uses. Think of it as like, a more powerful, magically enhanced, molotov cocktail. He keeps the bottle closed, throws it, and then causes it to explode in the air with his fire magic. The explosion is probably the size of a small bedroom if the bottle is hit directly in the air. If the bottle hits the ground and breaks before the flame hits, wherever the alcohol spread would be set aflame. Just think about it along the same lines as you would a molotov. Also, I edited and weakened his racial ability, so good now?

@Ciofio: Alright, its better now. Thank you. Also I know a lot of people who stuck with the uber asian naming policies early on.

@Kaze: Probably once everyone gets a character in. I'm mostly just using this as a CC sheet at this point along with answering questions. However tonight, if you guys would like, I'll sit down and create the CC sheet topic, introduction topic and maybe that shopping topic for the RWs. That should be a fun thing to make that will help get everyone ready.

Yeah, sorry. New Years stuff has kept me occupied all day. The downside to having a wonderfully blissful marriage is that sometimes it requires spending an entire day in front of the TV having a sci fi/fantasy themed movie marathon with your wife from 8am until well past midnight. Chances are tomorrow I'll deliver on the things I said before, but until then... sorry.

Name: "Wraith" Reifal Marcell
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Race/Ethnicity: Hylian
Magical Affinity: Dark

Appearance:Posted Image

As the image cuts off only slightly below the waist, he also wears black cargo pants, and black shoes.


Equipment:
1. Vanivald: A unique weapon, the Vanivald is basically a large two-sided broadsword on a pole. The blade of the sword is extremely sharp. It is seven inches wide, and from the even wider crossguard that it about ten inches wide, the blade is about thirty inches long. The pole, to the point where it connects to the crossguard is fifty inches long and made of steel with hard wood covering and a light, black tape wrap for grip. The crossguard is bronze, and the blade is made of black steel.

2. Ninjato: A plain ninja sword. Black grip on the handle, circular bronze crossguard, and black blade. The handle is seven inches long, and the blade is twenty-four inches long and three inches wide.


Techniques:
1. Shadowmeld: Dark: Rank 2: The user can disappear into shadows, including their own. This is an extremely stealthy technique, as shadows are everywhere and can allow his to stalk his enemies without notice.

2. Shadow Warp: Dark: Rank 2: The user, once hidden within a shadow, can use this spell to be able to come out of other shadows, this allows him to teleport, as it were, from one shadow to another, within a 15 ft radius around the original shadow he was hiding in.


Inventory:
1. Smoke Bombs
2. Flash Bombs
3. Poison Flask - Vials of poison that release both an extremely noxious gas. The substance can also be applied to weapons, allowing the weapon to paralyze the opponent and cause them great pain for a short time.


Background: He was born in Castle Town to a wealthy politician father, and a simple, plain mother. His father didn't have as much influence within the government as he would have liked, and instead of treating Reifal like a son, he treated him like his own personal assassin, having him, from a very young age, taught everything he would ever need to know about being a ruthless killer. It was an extremely unfortunate upbringing for the boy, and caused him much trauma in his younger years, but he eventually acquired a talent for it, and soon after he turned 14, his father was using him to assassinate or intimidate anyone who stood against him. However, after a long amount of time working for his father, he began to realize that he did not want this life, this destiny. To be the puppet of the one he should be calling father instead of master. He betrayed his father, stealing much of his wealth and fleeing to find his own worth in the world besides being a mindless machine of murder.

Coi, I don't wanna offend you

But I just have to say it, because it's just so goddamned ridiculous

But I think this is literally the most cliche thing I have ever seen.

I had another picture I was gonna use, but I was like, it's not big enough, looks to pixelated, this one seems like it'd be more likely for someone that lives in shadows. Boom, went with that one. Plus, once again, this is actually a really old character I once had for Yog's old LoZ RP. I just made some edits, and got a new picture since I couldn't find a good version of the original.

EDIT: Plus, ahahaha, I was really drunk and listening to Ice Cube, it seemed pretty appropriate to re-use him at the time.

Dear all,

The more that I think about this RP, the more I realize something... it sucks. All this will be is a second hand retelling of a story we already wrote about characters that don't really have anything in common except for a single organization that has changed significantly over time. There is no great spark of imagination here, no grand question that we seek to find the answer to. Only a half-hearted attempt to recapture something wonderful, but without anything to make it new again. You all deserve something much better than this and I know that I can create something worthy of us.

Give me a couple of days and let me come up with something worthy of this legacy. I can't promise that things won't change. I can't promise that this revisioning won't require serious reworkings of characters, ideas and premises but I can promise you one thing... it won't be something that I'll be embarrassed of. It'll be a story we haven't read through before, a world that we haven't already filled with our memories and a journey that hasn't already been embedded in our feet.

I know we can do something amazing together, something that we might remember long past when this story and this site has grown dark with our absence. Lets create something new from these fond memories of old. Something different than before...
