-Background: At the heart of the universe exists a planet known as Lunaria. Lunaria was once a lush and fertile planet that produced a variety of life forms. It wasn't until the Great Cataclysm that Lunaria began to fall apart. The wondrous blue sky became that of a dark gray color and the once solid continent broke apart into numerous chunks of land. Amongst the chaos emerged a being of pure evil, pure darkness. This being was known as the Dark King Arturo van Driehal and with him he brought beings known as darknoughts. Ruthless and savage, the darknoughts began spreading chaos and destruction throughout Lunaria under the king's command. Almost 500 years later, Lunaria is now a broken and ravaged planet. Arturo van Driehal, now believed to be a god, has complete control over the planet and it's people. Lunaria is nearly eclipsed in darkness. It is only a matter of time before darkness completely engulfs the planet whole. Many inhabitants believe their home to be lost and that nobody can stop the king's wicked tyranny. Despite this general consensus, many courageous warriors still pick up their weapons and fight to their very last breath to try and stop Arturo's dark madness. Will you be the hero to save this world from utter destruction? Will Lunaria be saved or is it the end of a once beautiful utopia? ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ -The Rules: All characters must be against Arturo van Driehal, Your character necessarily doesn't have to be good, but he or she should be against the big baddie. You can have NPC's but try not to go overboard with them. This rp is set in a fantasy/sci fi universe. This means that the world is full of archaic weaponry like swords and spears and yet full of technology like cars, trains, planes and guns. Standard rp rules apply here as well. Lastly, have fun. I want this rp to be a wonderful and an amazing experience for those involved. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ -Continants of Lunaria Arctica: - Medium-sized Continent - Mountainous ranges abundant - Dominated by snow and ice, tundra terrain - No record of inhabitance to date Makoto: - Medium-sized continent - Mountainous ranges abundant - Many small human/dwarven settlements Marheim: - Desert-like continent - Medium-sized - Populated by a variety of species - Rich in natural resources which all lie in the harshest part of the desert Lazzaria: - Large Continent - Plains, hills, and grasslands - Used to have the largest population of various species - Supposed home of the legendary "Palgaians" Mekkun: - Small continent - Surrounded by water - Home to many merchants and ports - Legendary burial ground of the Leviathan Quietus: - Home of the Alliance - “Life’s Last Stand” - Medium-sized continent -Very industrialized -Largest concentration of humans - Farthest from the Dark Continent The Dark Continent: - Medium-sized continent - Shadowed, barren wasteland in perpetual grayness - Home of Arturo van Driehal - Largest concentration of darknoughts to date ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ -Factions: Arturo van Dreihal's Army -An army comprised of darknoughts and monstrosities. Besides the darknoughts, Arturo has "enlisted" various creatures into his ranks and due to some untold horror done unto them during their training, they are morphed into savage behemoths with aninsatiable bloodlust. They are decked out in black armor and normally carry large, bladed weaponry. The army is headed by the Fenril Knights. It is rumored that Arturo has created a special division within his army should a serious threat arise. This rumored division has yet been seen therefore the rumor thus remains a mere rumor. The Alliance -Built to counteract the threat posed by Arturo. It is the largest army next to Arturo's. While generally considered to be the underdog, they are passionate in their fight and have done extremely well in defending their last home. They employ various forms of weaponry ranging from laser cannons to sword and shield. The Rebels -Various rebel factions living within Lunaria. They are constantly fighting against the Gods in whatever ways they can, however their small numbers, ineffectiveness and inability to cooperate have forced their reputation as an actual threat to be less than serious. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ -Races Because this is part fantasy, the standard races apply. In this rp however, their are also races I created. Feel free to be whatever race you see fit. Darknoughts- Creaures born from pure darkness. They generally have ink black skin and bright yellow eyes. They vary in shape, size and intelligence. The more evolved a darknought is the more powerful it is in battle. Soem darknoughts have become so evolved that they take on teh appearance of humans. Whne a darknought reaches this state, they are known as darknought lords. As darknought lords they surpress their power in their humanoid form but can release it and transform into their true beastial form. This race of creatures is the bulk of Arturo's army making him a force to be reckoned with.. Palgaians- Short creatures that are dog like in a appearance, being very squat with elongated faces and tails. The Palgaians are creatures that excelle at magic and summoning creatures to their aid. It is rumored they know of how to defeat Arturo, but have not been seen in the last couple hundred years. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The Character's Biography: Name: Character's name Title: A Nickname Age: how old he or she is Gender: Is your character a guy or a girl Species: what race is he Eye Color: what color are his or her eyes Hair Color: " " hair Height: how tall is he/she Weight: how much does he/she weigh Alignment: Alliance or Rebels Magic: A listing of what magic you can use Abilities: Your character's special skills Weapon(s): Can use anything from a sword to a gun. Don’t go nuts. Appearance: What does he/she look like Persona: what's he/she like Voice Actor: Voice of your character. Can be anyone of Clint Eastwood to Jackie Chan BGM: Song That Suits Your Character, kind of like his/her anthem History: His/her life up until now ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ All approved bios: Name: Arturo van Dreihal Title: Dark King, Age: 678 Gender: Male Species: Human/Unknown Eye Color: navy Hair Color: Black Height: 6'5" Weight: 242 lbs Alignment: Himself Magic: Darkness, lightning Abilities: shapeshifting, telepathy, flight.... Arturo has engulfed himself into the darkness for so logn there's no telling what other powers he may have. Weapon(s): Epeon Appearance: A dark and imposing figure, Arturo is often associated with the image of death itself. His hair is as black as night and is kept short and neat. His navy eyes are sharp as if piercing your very soul. His face has chiseled into it grim and stern expressions. His body stands tall and is packed with pure muscle leaving him nowhere near bulky but by no means lean. He wears a white leather trench coat and leaves it unbuttoned all the way. With no shirt undeneath, the king's well developed body can be seen along with the scar running along his chest. He wears black hakama-esque pants that are tucked into boots and held up by a navy sash. His boots are as black as night and are steel toe'd. Equally black are Arturo's fingerless gloves that are worn over his hands. It would seem that either his time in the darkness, or perhaps his time with death has given his skin a cold paleness. This paleness makes a striking contrast his five pointed crown made of black onyx that's atop his head. Persona: Cold, ruthless, cunning, these are Arturo's nicest qualities. A sadistic and twisted man, Arturo will go to any length to get what he wants. Considering himself better thany everyone, Arturo has no qualms about criticizing and ridiculing others. He is not above threatening the lives of others and believes only through darkness can the world be at peace. His intelligence is uncanny and rivaled by few. He is the epitome of mean, violent, and destructive, Something Arturo has no problem with. Voice Actor: Terrence Stone BGM: The great destroyer- Nine Inch Nails, Vergil Battle 3-Tetsuya Shibata History: Arturo is a quiet man when it comes to his past. As he has said, "It is of no one's cocnern but my own." Those who have questioned this have only met their end by his swift blade. Edited by Ziek Tuvai, November 23 2008, 10:21 PM.

Hope this is alright. I'm wondering, are you going to have a character other then Arturo? Name: Riq' monte Chaal Title: Riq, although some people call him Big Bad Riq when they want to taunt him. Age: 59 Gender: Male Species: Ogre Eye Color: Blue Hair Color: Bald Height: 7'9" / 232.5cm Weight: 487 lbs / 221.5kg Alignment: Alliance Magic: Fire, Earth Abilities: Great strength and endurance Weapon(s): A morning star to match his size Appearance: Very tale and very bulky Riq is a mountain of muscle, his massive arms, littered with scars, cause him to slouch forward making him be the body builder version of the hunch back of Notre Dame. His face is spare of much fat with a rounded chin that has a slight point. His deep eye sockets house two icy blue eyes that could freeze at a glance. Two bottom canines threaten to escape his lips because of his nearly unapparent underbite. His legs are short compared to his arms and aren't nearly as muscular or scarred. He wears dark brown loose trousers with a leather belt lined with metal bars to which small satchels, mostly of food hang from. He wears a burnt black tunic that is open at the front and slightly loose on his large body. He will wear a large dirtied, soot covered brown duster when he travels, always leaving it open. He has two pieces of armor that are hardly visible, a breastplate covering his heart from frontal attacks and a plate to protect his heart from rear attacks both of which are connected by leather straps. Persona: Crude, reflective, and loud he always speaks his mind no matter the consequence. His attitude towards someone reflects their attitude towards him, if they're an ass, he's one too. He enjoys company but doesn't like especially large groups or very loud places. He especially doesn't like the prejudice and racist as they're usually the ones who get in his way. Although Riq is violent his paradise is a nice room with a deep comfortable chair and an even nicer warm bed. His favorite things in the world are food and sleep and the occasional fight. Voice Actor: Can't think of any, think of a deep, raspy almost choked voice. BGM: Dimmu Borgir - Progenies Of The Great Apocalypse History: Riq never went to school, nor would he ever think of it, he has some writing skills and can read as well as any educated person. Born into a family of metalworkers he developed most of his knowledge from his father. At a young age his mother died, leaving him and his father alone. To fight the grief his father picked up drinking and became even more aggressive, to make matters worse he'd stopped working, leaving his son to do everything. Despising what his father had become Riq killed him in cold blood and began traveling looking for work, forever hiding the sin he had committed. After years he joined the alliance to pay off a large debt. Other then that nothing else is known of his past, not where he worked, what his great debt was, or who it was for. |

Why as a matter of fact, indeed I am. Hopefully tommorow I'll post the IC portion of the rp, and if not then most definately Saturday. Name: Volke Title: The enigmatic rogue, The melodic assassin Age: 32 Gender: male Species: Half human and half demon Eye Color: Dark Purple Hair Color: Navy Height: 6'2" Weight: 240lbs Alignment: Alliance Magic: Sound, wind Abilities: ~Art of the Loud Palm: The Art of the Loud palm sia fighting style volke uses that utilizes sound vibrations into combat. Acting as a channel/source for these vibrations, Volke can disperse them any way he pleases. When in combat these vibrations can be utilized to numb parts of the opponents body, leaving them helpless. It should be noted that the stronger the vibrations are the more damage they can cause. Weapon(s): Shibien is a dagger that grants Volke the ability to play music in battle. It is a hybrid between a dagger and an ocarina. Appearance: Volke is a tall man standing at 6'2" with lightly tanned skin. His navy hair is short and kept spiky in the back and straight in the front. Volke's bangs often just hang over his ominous purple eyes and never seem to bother Volke at all. In terms of apparral, Volke wears a tattered black cloak, with collar slightly covering his face. Underneath his cloak, Volke wears light black torso armor with dark purple trim. He wears baggy black pants that are tucked into pointed metal boots. Volke wears numerous brown and black belts that he wears horizontally and diagonally. Shibien is kept at Volke's left side. Volke's right arm is bandaged up and on his left bicep is an inferno band. On each hand Volke wears black fingerless gloves. To complete his appearance, Volke has a piercing on his left ear, and around his neck is silver chain with a silver locket attached to it. Persona: Volke has a very somber and aloof personality. Quiet and always calculating, Volke tries to blend into the background and observe as much as he can. Very distant, Volkr has only a few friends and even then those relationships are strained. Voice Actor: Doug Erholtz BGM: I wish I had an angel-Nightwish History: Volke, once known as another name, was born in the village known as Surf on the continent of Mekkun. Growing up in Surf, Volke learned the ways of the sea and life as a merchants son. It wasn't until around the age of 16 did Volke lose everything. Arturo had invaded Mekkun and destroyed everything within site, including Volke's home. No one knows the exact details of that day as Volke is the only survivor and refuses to discuss it. Whatever did happen, it left a teenage Volke shattered. Feeling like a failure for being unable to protect his home, Volke left and changed his name to its present state. Years later, Volke is now in his early thirties and is a part of the Alliance. In hopes of finding closure on the past, Volke ahs sworn his entire being to help stop Arturo's reign, Edited by Ziek Tuvai, November 27 2008, 11:55 PM.
