[spoiler=Introduction (MUST READ)]The year is 717 AD, and the world is in darkness. Few inventors still invent like they did as the Roman Empire fell, and most of them have even shut there doors. To survive, humans have turned toward different paths. Guilds have sprung up for mages allowing them to get jobs and use their techniques. Mages are highly destructive (and though clients have to often take money out of their pays so they can repair the damage the mages did) but are still accepted by most cities, as Guilds often bring in clients who are predictable patrons at stores, which increases revenue.

 

 

Now for that official paperworks.

[spoiler=Guild List]

[spoiler=The Black Knights]

The Black Knights is a special, exclusive for the best of the best sorcerers to gather, though it often causes problems, having that much magic there, in one place. They allow any type of mage join.

[spoiler=Members]

[spoiler=Master Eli Nightwing (Felix Culpa)]

Age: 21

Gender: Male

Personality: Very caring for members of his guild, as they are his extended family. He is brutal in battle and has never been seen by his guild members

Type of Magic: Shadow Element. This special type of forgotten magic allows the wearer to meld into the shadows allowing him to travel almost anywhere there is a shadow, but cannot enter light. If a light is shone on the person while they are traveling, the surface throws them out, making him appear. It also allows him to control shadows of others and also, he can join with his own shadow, which become a set of medieval armor, complete with shield and sword.

Bio: Eli was always looking up to his father, who set up the guild when Eli was born. His father taught him all the shadow magic he knew, and Eli later improved on his father, in both magic and in the guild. His retired father, Lucius often visits the guild to either take a job or talk with his son about the guild. Not much is known about Eli, though he once had a sister, who went off to start her own Guild when Lucius handed control of the Black Knights over to Eli, instead of her.

Appearance:

[spoiler=Devin Aiser (Felix Culpa)]

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Personality: Very friendly but fierce in combat. He tends to see the good in people, and can't accept that his childhood best friend is now an evil Mage.

Type of Magic: Nature Magic. Devin can control plant growth or control plants movements. Also can control wood, as in buildings.

Guild: Black Knights

Bio: Devin was raised by a guardian who was not his parents, as his mother died during childbirth and his father left soon afterwards, leaving Devin alone with his older brother and sister. They went from town to town, begging for food or money from passersby. One day, a mage came by, and gave them a book of spells. "Study that," he said, "And the future is yours." After that, Devin prudently practiced magic night and day, not resting until he perfected his spells. His brother and sister took separate paths and joined different guilds, but Devin found the guild the mage who had given him his first book lived and worked. When Devin searched for the man, however, no one had any information on his whereabouts, saying he had left for a mission a few years previously and had yet to return, so Devin's made it his goal to find this man and thank him.

[spoiler=Dire Riders]This guild specializes in Nature Magic and Take Over Magic. (A type of magic that allows an animal spirit or demon to partially take over your body, transforming your body part into that of the demon or animal. This would include things like Take Over: Bear Hands, which will transform both of your hands into bear claws.) Some mages refer to them as beast mages. This guild causes less damage than most, because of how their magic works. Only accepts people with Nature Magic or Take Over Magic. [spoiler=Guild Members]

 

[spoiler=Rogue Mages][spoiler=Emory (Felix Culpa)]Age: ??

Gender: Male

Personality: Dark and calm. Not many people know him well enough to understand his thought processes.

Type of Magic: Undead(Summoning) Magic / Destruction Magic

Guild: Rogue

Bio: Emory has been often recognized by guilds as a threat to their well-being, so they often deploy trackers to follow Emory, to see if they get in vicinity of the guild towns. Unfortunately, very few of these tracker mages return from this mission, and has been deemed an S-class Mission for only the toughest of mages. Emory's most famous Destruction Magic is Annihilation which places a large spell circle above the area being destroyed and levels the entire area beneath it with a large black light, which destroys anything it touches. Unfortunately, it requires the deepest concentration to keep it under control, so he can't be attacked during this time. He is known to have once been in the Black Knights, but was excommunicated from the Guild after fighting intensely with the guildmaster over a span of 4 days without rest, which completely destroyed the guild headquarters and part of the town of Stranata.

Okay, to save the trouble of adding to my private messages, I will now be accepting apps for guilds through the spoiler form below. Please follow all of the rules and don't overpower your guild.

 

Name of the Guild: (Please be original. One thing I base whether or not I accept it is the name, so be creative)

Details about the Guild:

(And for the sake of only good Roleplayers owning guilds)

RP Example Post: Respond to the following

 

A man in a dark cloak is holding a spell book while examining your guild's headquarters. He seems to be murmuring in some forgotten tongue, and looking up at the guild every few seconds. "This one should do fine for my goal," the man said, closing the book as it disappeared in a puff of smoke. "Forbidden Spell: Annihilation!"

 

A spell circle appeared above your guild, and the man's voice grew loud and rung throughout the city. "Members of the guild, you are dead. My spell, Annihilation, will destroy your guild in 30 minutes. Play your cards wisely."

 

[spoiler=Rules]

1. Follow all YCM Roleplay Forums rules.

2. Play nice.

3. No destroying the world. O.o That'd be bad.

[Otaku-sama]

Name: Kai Doumeki

 

Age: 36

 

Gender: Male

 

Personality: Despite being only 36, Kai acts like a grizzled old veteran from many wars, and in a way he is. His experience in the practical use of offensive and defensive storm magic is extensive and his strong leadership has lead his guild to greatness. Despite looking tough and intimidating, he has a soft spot for children, especially orphans, and helps them whenever he can.

 

Type of Magic: Storm Magic (Combination of Wind, Water and Lightning)

 

Guild: Cult of the Storm (guild app below)

 

Bio: Kai was born to a poor mother who did not want to have a child. As a result, Kai's mother gave him to a local orphanage and left town, never to be seen again. Kai was picked on extensively and was forced to adapt, his attitude becoming tough and cold along with his body become large and muscular. Despite growing to be larger than all other orphans in the orphanage, he did not become a bully. Instead, he took an interest in magic and studied in the local library whenever he could. When a member of the Cult of the Storm on a mission of giving noticed Kai's potential, Kai was adopted by the Cult. His skill in magic grew exponentially and he became a high ranking Cult member before the age of 25, something unheard of in the Cult, where age meant respect. He lead many expeditions to find magical Artefacts and took many jobs himself, becoming one of the most powerful members of the Cult.

 

Appearance: [spoiler=Photo Basis] Replace clothing with Cult of the Storm Robes. They are a pale green with swirling patterns in dark green thread wtih the symbol of the Cult on the chest. His robes are lined with white around the hood and ends of the sleeves to show his status as a high ranking Cult member.

 

 

 

Name of the Guild: Cult of the Storm

 

Details about the Guild: The Cult of the Storm is a chapter based wizard guild that only accepts those who are proficient in Wind, Water or Lightning magic. Members partake in meditation classes that allow members to better tap into the mana of nature and be at one with the storms. The Cult is also very humanitarian, every chapter giving back to the community and often hold open kitchens, where anyone is allowed to attend lectures on the philosophy of the Cult and a free meal.

 

RP Example Post: [spoiler=Response] Kai was jarred out of his meditation by a fellow Cult member.

 

"Doumeki-sama, a mysterious man has cast a spell on the guild! He says the whole guild will be destroyed! What do we do!" the member said with a panicked voice, his eyes wild. Kai silently stood up and responded with his usual authoritative voice.

 

"Gather the members. We will call upon the protection of the storms together," Kai said as he walked out of the room. A few minutes later, all the guild members have assembled in the Cult tower courtyard. Kai walked into the middle of the throng and commanded every to sit.

 

"We are calling upon the storms for protection from this foul spell. These foul gods cannot fight the primal and original!" Kai called out, his powerful voice resonating through the courtyard. With his signal, the members began chanting, each chanting the same words in the ancient tongue. The sound of so many people chanting the same thing created a trance-like state for everyone in the tower. Kai began stamping the ground and invoking the arcane energies of the storm. The sky darkens and rain begins to fall, starting with a few drops and quickly developing into a full downpour. Kai started to move his whole body with the winds and rain to call upon the lightning. When the chanting reached a climax, a massive bolt of lightning struck the spel circle. The circle lost power slightly, but stayed in its place. Bolt after bolt of lightning struck the spell circle, the thunder rolling through the city. At the last possible moment, the spell circle was disappated by a final bolt of lightning. The chanting stopped and was quickly replaced with cheering and rejoicing. Kai smiled to himself and returned to his meditation, as if nothing had happened.
