[url="http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/240366-ways-of-the-world-rpgstartedalways-acceptingpg-16/"][b][u]THE IC THREAD[/u][/b][/url]

[center][i]The world of Jigen was a calm place where all factions respected each other and valued each others opinions and honored their individual views. That was until one day The Gilded Rose thought they deserved more than everyone else. The Gilded Rose was the most technologically advanced faction of Jigen; with half their residents being robots, or humans that had robotic parts they figured that they should be the supreme rulers of the world of Jigen and command all the factions. They quickly took over The Frozen Lakes which housed two separate factions all together. Their next target was The Wakening Fields; with some resistance from the other factions they were able to hold them off for a few weeks but then The Wakening Fields had also succumbed to the wrath of The Gilded Rose. Now, Jigen is divided into all it's separate factions, in which all are arguing and disrespecting each other; will you fight for peace again? Will you help The Gilded Rose? Or will you just watch it all go down? It's your choice in a world divided![/i]

[u][b]Rules:[/b][/u]
-All forum and role play section rules apply in this thread as well
-My decisions are the raining factor in this RP.
-If you pick a certain faction you must play the part. I.E. No joining an all Monk faction and then using a bio-cannon as a weapon.

[u][b]Faction Choices[/b][/u]

[b]The Gilded Rose[/b] <A highly technologically advanced Faction; their race is primarily all robots with the occasional half human half robot hybrid. If you join the The Gilded Rose you are expected to be evil but I will allow neutral Gilded Rose members. This Faction resides in Gomar; just to the right of The Wakening Fields. The Gilded Rose lives in a more city type of settlement and they primarily manufacture weapons and other mechanical goods to sell to other Factions.>

[b]The Frostborn[/b] <A relatively small Faction that concentrates mainly on frost magics. Using their advanced magic and weapon crafting skills they have created "Never-melt Weapons". These weapons are made of solid ice and yet somehow are quite durable and never melt. This Faction was taken over by The Gilded Rose, however, this faction can fight for good, evil, or neutral. This Faction resides within the East section of The Frozen Lakes. The Frostborn are warriors of frost that love the cold so they live in igloos and caves of ice. Their "Never-melt Weapons" intrigue many so they find themselves selling them for a decent income.>

[b]The Withering Willow[/b] <A mid-sized Faction that concentrates highly on dark magics and demonology. This faction was extremely evil to begin with and many speculate that they willing joined The Gilded Rose. The leader of The Withering Willow once stated that "If The Gilded Rose had not attacked then they probably would have." This Faction resides within the West section of The Frozen Lakes. This Faction can only be evil or neutral. The Withering Willow live in wooden houses and are a small town environment that are surround by a large stone wall. They have no source of income that is visible so it is very sketchy about how they afford things.>

[b]The Elder Sage[/b] <A surprisingly large and powerful Faction that are masters of all elemental magics. This faction was extremely powerful, so powerful in fact that they have taken over The Wakening Fields entirely. For some odd reason they have made a pact with The Gilded Rose and their true intentions remain unannounced. This Faction resides in The Wakening Fields. This Faction can only be Evil. The live in huts and shacks all throughout The Wakening Fields and have no official town or city environment. Each member of The Elder Sage takes care of their own business and makes their own profit through different ways.>

[b]The Iron Lotus[/b] <A mid sized Faction that are also pretty advanced in technology. Although they don't have robots running around they have evolved from sword and fist fighting to fight with guns and more advanced weaponry. Their sided against the The Gilded Rose stating that technology should never be used for evil deeds. This Faction resides in The Sand Sea and can be good, evil, or neutral. The Iron Lotus live in a mid sized town environment but instead of wooden houses they live in stone and brick houses and seem to make their income but building war machines and forging armor.>

[b]The Unbreakable Branch[/b] <A large sized faction composed of monks who choose not to evolve into technology and have kept to their fist fighting roots. Being able to string multiple hits together they do damage quickly. They hate The Gilded Rose very heavily now; before they lived with a very "to each his own" way of thinking and didn't mind The Gilded Rose; but now that they use technology for evil they will do everything in their power to stop them. This Faction can be Good or Neutral and reside in the Southern part of The Sand Sea. The Unbreakable Branch live in temples all over the Sandsea and have no need for money or pesky things but do sell collected herbs and spices to get themselves bye.>

[b]FIDO[/b] <A very small Faction that reside on the very edge of The Dark Span. They specialize in allying themselves with Nature and Animals to fight and believe that what The Gilded Rose is doing is very wrong. FIDO, although small, are powerful and will fight until there's none of them left. This Faction can only be Good. FIDO agents live in tents and cottages and have an encampment type of life style. They hunt for food and sell meats and other animal parts for income.>

[b]The Breaking Blade[/b] <A mid sized faction that rule over most of The Dark Span. They specialize in the use of non-scientific weaponry; I.E. Swords, Lances, Thrown Weapons, and various others. The Breaking Blade realize that their Faction is dieing out, slowly, but dieing all the same. They hope that, in fighting along side The Unbreakable Branch, that the world will realize they're there and more people will want to be taught in the ways of The Breaking Blade. This Faction can be Good or Neutral. The Breaking Blade live in a mid-sized town kind of area and live in houses made of metal and stone together and are separated from the rest of the world by a large wooden wall. They are the only manufacturers of bows and arrows and rely on that to make money.>

[spoiler=Completely Neutral Factions]
Completely Neutral Factions are Factions that are not on the Factions list and need to be discovered within exploring the world of Jigen. You may switch your allegiance to that Faction at any point in the RPG.

[spoiler=Characters]
[spoiler=[b]Name:[/b] Synthetic Administrator of Resources And Advancement (SARAA, pronounced Sarah)]

[b]Age:[/b] 3

[b]Gender:[/b] Genderless. Has Female voice synthesizer.

[b]Faction:[/b] Gilded Rose

[b]Alignment:[/b] Evil

[b]History:[/b] SARAA was a groundbreaking achievement for The Gilded Rose because she was the first "Strong Artificial Intelligence" ever developed. Sure, there were multiple "Weak AIs" out there, but those had their knowledge pre-programmed into them. SARAA had to learn everything.

The first thing she learned was her life expectancy. Each terminal was designed to contain a years worth of information. There were sixteen terminals.

Conviniently, SARAA also learned basic math skills during this first lesson.

Then came the next big piece of information. It was a quote, but it had a deep meaning to SARAA. "I Think, Therefore, I AM." Immediately, SARAA's logic programming went hard at work, and got to the existance of the income tax before anyone else thought of anything to teach her.

Now that the designers and programmers were happy with their creation, they told SARAA one last thing.

"You'll be perfect."

[b]Personality:[/b] SARAA was programmed to have a completely neutral personality, being designed only to redirect and change The Gilded Rose's economy. However, being the strong AI that she is, SARAA developed a slightly sarcastic personality, something which is now a set part of her programming and cannot be deleted.

[b]Appearance[/b]SARAA consists of four parts. The first of which is a memory bank, designed to hold all the information she finds. The memory banks are sixteen black rectangular prisms, arranged in a four by four square with a two foot square between each terminal. In the center of the entire square is a white cyllinder, which each terminal connects to and leads to the second part of SARAA:

The "body." This is where most of the action is, with each possible aspect required of a strong AI located in separate regions around a main "eye." The eye itself is a sphere, connected to the surrounding ring by multiple wires Inside the eye is SARAA's voice synthesizer and high priority functions.

The fourth and final portion is SARAA's Physical Manifestation. This body is a basic robotic structure, which is undeniably a member of The Gilded Rose, but is able to move about. The only real feature of the Physical Manifestation is that it has an advanced receiver designed so that SARAA can move it or speak through it while it is anywhere on the planet.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Name: Aelyar (AY-lee-AR)]

Age: 14

Gender: Male

Faction: Frostborn

Alignment: Neutral

History: Aelyar was born into a small family, with only him and his parents. His father was a mildly prosperous hunter, one of the best in the village, so Aelyar was never out of the spotlight. His whole life, people have expected him to be a great hunter, using his inherited magic skills to track and capture the polar creatures near his village. He began showing these skills shortly after he turned eight. Similar to most, it was a small act, but one nonetheless done using his psyche.
One night, sitting in front of the household fire, he had noticed a rat scurrying from one of the small holes in the walls, almost unnoticable. He knew that his mother was terrified of them, and since his father was out hunting, he did not want to alarm her. Aelyar thought about getting up, but before he could, a small shard of ice shot out through the hole and skewered the rat. His mother saw, rushed over and completely oblivious to the recently-killed vermin and fiercly hugged her son. From then on, he constantly practiced, weaving ice, freezing water and generally working with his natural element. Now that he is fourteen, he has gone hunting with his father on regular occasions, using conjured Nevermelt Spears to slay the wild arctic yak and walrus herds.

Personality: Like all Frostborn, he will not open up to people he doesn't know well, but once he befriends them, people find that he's not so different from many others. When not displaying his racially characteristical cold indifference and lack of intrest, he can actually be rather excited and eccentric towards life. In a hunt, he is a gifted tracker, knowing all the usual trails of his homeland's native animals, and he kills cleanly so as to cause the animal minimal pain.

Aelyar has several habits, none of them good. The foremost, and the one that gets him most into trouble, is that he has a rather sarcastic nature. Most demands are usually responded with retorts, and his sharp tongue often rewards him with lectures from his parents. However, he will usually have a comeback for almost any situation.

Appearance: Aelyar has a pale-blond, nearly stark white hair, and is charateristic of most Frostborn. Slanting, slightly wider-than-most eyes and skin untouched by acne are his most noticable features. Aside from that, he is rather ordinary. He has a light build, gangly arms and legs as per usual of a pubesant boy, but a slight limp impedes his walk due to a maulling from a polar bear when he first went hunting with his father that never fully healed. Aside from that, he has confident, lithe movements and an impish smile usually playing around his lips.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Name: Tarren Swift-claw]
Age: 16 winters (16 years)
Gender: Male
Faction: FIDO
Alignment: Good

History: Originally born into one of the more sedimentary camps. The third of five children and the oldest son, he was a part of a well off family. Born in the cusp of winter and spring, his alignment is to both water and air. Like all the children of the FIDO, he was taught the ways of the wild; basic things in tending life of all kinds, growing plants, hunting, home making, magic and spell weaving, and crafts such as tanning and skinning.

In around his 12th spring, he was infected with a plague that occasionally claims the young of the FIDO; Death`s Heat. Stricken with fever for almost a month; unable to eat and only sleeping fitfully, he withered away to almost nothing. His mother and sister, both practitioners of the curative artes, managed to cure him despite the urges of other of the FIDO to end his suffer, but he never regained the sturdiness that his race generally had, and focused on honing his skill rather than his strength, as most boys his age did.

During 13th spring, he underwent the testing, a ritual conducted by the village leader in order to determine a youths destined path. He was divined to be a follower of the hunter caste, like his father and father`s father before him. Tarren was eager to join one of the nomadic hunting bands in order to better his skills. However, because of his recent affliction with Deaths heat, his father was reluctant to allow it, preferring him to stay within the village. Determined go, Tarren undertook the Walk of the Ancestors, a ritual journey through an mystical network of caves normally held when one was older, to prove his strength and join one of the clans. There, he met his totem; a sleek forest cat with dappled fur of gold and silver. He emerged from the three day long journey as one of the youngest to complete it successfully, the mark of the Felain clan plain for all to see. Faced with the evidence of talent and ability, his father gave his permission, as well as a bone shard crest as symbol of his blessing.

Personality: Tarren is a bit snide and abrasive. He dislikes being underestimated, but understands that it can be a good thing to a hunter and fighter. He has trouble doing things he thinks is wrong or could be done by more efficient methods. True to his upbringing, he cares greatly for all life and hates to see the wasteful spilling of blood. He believes all life should be respected. Unlike many of the FIDO, he doesn`t hold fast to killing to end the suffering and prefers to try to save the life, as he himself is alive because of his families care.

Appearance: Roamers and hunter by nature, members of the FIDO fraction generally possess darker tanned skin and dark hair that is often a bit faded from exposure to the sun. He reflects the average, having long brown hair that is lighter at the ends than at the roots. Braided into a queue that hangs halfway down his back, his hair is hidden in a sleeve woven from goat’s wool. Two family piercings decorate his right ear; a loop from his mother’s clan on the upper lobe and another from his father. A bone shard, carved into a crest, is also on his right ear. One fang hangs from his left ear; a symbol of his following of the hunter caste.

Lanky with a corded wiry frame, he moves the easy grace of one accustomed to traveling long distances on foot and moving quietly in the wild. He lacks the sturdy build that is the norm in his people in favour of a slighter one, remnants of a sickness he had as a child. The soles of his feet are heavily callused as he almost never wars shoes. The tattoo of the Felian clan, a stylized feline head formed from swirling lines, adorns his left shoulder, prominently displayed by his sleeveless style of dress. Faint scars are scattered over his body, primary on his limbs; testament to his forays in hunting.

[/spoiler]

[Spoiler=Xarfax Myrgrimm]
[color="#9932CC"][b]Name:[/b] Xarfax Myrgrimm
[b]Age:[/b] 24
[b]Gender:[/b] Male
[b]Faction:[/b] The Withering Willow
[b]Alignment:[/b] Neutral (would never side with the gilded rose though)
[b]History:[/b] Xarfax’s mother was an only child and since she was still unmarried by the age of twenty four, her father decided to sell her virginity to a demon in order for him to ensure that he would have a grandson. Xarfax’s mother barely survived what can only be viewed as a vile and gruesome act of rape but the demon kept its end of the promise and made sure that she was impregnated with a son. Xarfax’s grandfather was enraged by the fact that his daughter had almost been killed, but he knew he couldn’t do anything about it as their ruler, the most powerful warlock in the whole city, wouldn’t dare to pick a fight with a demon. Xarfax’s mother died after given birth to him, something that is probably connected to the fact that he is a half demon, and thus his grandfather was the one to raise him.

Growing up, Xarfax started to notice quite early on that he wasn’t like other children. He looked much like them, with the exception of his violet irises, pale skin and hair so dark it seemed like ink, but there was something else about them, about everyone in town that was different from him. He could see it on them when he spotted them, they had a strong white light bursting from their chests, he didn’t have one, not exactly. There was a light there, but it was very dim and when he was young he was scared of this, thinking it meant that he was dying. He asked his grandfather about it several times, but the old man only seemed to avoid the question, looking quite frightened when he was asked about it.

It wasn’t until Xarfax hit puberty that his grandfather told him about the whole ordeal around his birth and thus what Xarfax really was. As his grandfather told him this Xarfax became enraged with him for what he had done to his own daughter, Xarfax’s mother, and thus to Xarfax himself. The anger triggered the demonic powers within him to activate and when he stood there yelling at his grandfather, he could see the old man gasping for air and growing paler. The magical powers had killed his grandfather, perhaps because that was what Xarfax wished at the time.

As he had been schooled by his grandfather in the arts of dark magic, he had not only become orphaned by his death but also without a mentor and teacher. He could still school himself on the theoretical parts of magic using the various books he had access to in his home, but the practical magic couldn’t be learned that way, not in a safe manner at least so he stayed away from it.
In order to keep himself off the streets and keeping his home he started to work as an apprentice with a local tanner, a job he had surprising talent for even with his lack of experience. His master provided him not only with enough money to be able to pay for his rent and buy food for himself, but he also took on the role as a mentor for the young half demon. When he was fifteen he had become so skilled that Hamlin, his master at the tannery, had to give him a raise and thus he could save money so he would be able to attend “the school of magi”.

By the time that Xarfax had turned nineteen years old he sold his grandfather’s house and left the tannery, much to Hamlin’s dismay, in order to attend the school of magi and to learn magic properly. As a child he had learned some basic spells from his grandfather but now he would be able to be schooled in the art of magic. He had always had an unexplainable thirst for magic, even as a child, something that he suspected had something to do with his demonic side. He also knew that he had a talent for it as he had learned everything his grandfather had taught him quite quickly. Or, at least he guessed he had since his grandfather had been so amazed with how quickly he had mastered the simple spells.

Xarfax breezed through the first two semesters at the school as they were only taught very basic spells, most of them he even knew from his training with his grandfather and it wasn’t until the second semester of the second year that he was starting to actually have to put some energy into his studies. He hasn’t gotten a lot of friends at the school as most of the other students in his group was a bit intimidated by him. Whether it was for his looks or his talent he didn’t know.

He is currently finishing up his sixth and final year at the school of magi.
[b]Personality:[/b] Xarfax is quite a timid and observing person. He usually doesn’t speak unless spoken to and if asked a question he usually keeps to short answers that only directly answer the question. He is a fast learner, probably due to his demonic side, and has found himself having a minor talent in many different areas. He is completely useless when it comes to math however, a subject that he has never been able to understand and probably never will understand either. He has minor OCD and cannot stand when things are unorganized and will sometimes organize things in a room he’s in if he’s bothered by the mess.

He has some demonic features that are not represented very well in the picture. These are his violet eyes and his pitch black hair that is so dark that it barely reflects light at all, it’s kind of like ink.

[spoiler=Tyxcze (TIG-ze)]
Name: Tyxcze (TIG-ze)

Age: 53 Years

Gender: Male

Faction: The Withering Willow

Alignment: Neutral

History: Tyxcze was never part of the Withering Willow when he was born. In fact, he was part of the Elder Sage for half of his life. During his time part of the Elder Sage, he excelled in all the elements. Eventually he went to far so that he was unstoppable. The other members of his faction reacted by gouging both his eyes out and forcing him to forget everything he learned, causing him to be blind and weak. He was then left to die wandering walking around the earth until he encountered the Withering Willow. Instead of being killed, he was placed into their hostility while training him in Demonology and the Dark Arts. Since he was blind, he wasn't affected by the competition of others and excelled. Eventually, what he learned replaced what he knew. After the Gilded Rose became aggressive, he refused to be part of the same Alliance as the Elder Sage. Escaping his enemies, he has managed to wander once more, only this time prepared.

Personality: Tyxcze is usually calm yet willing to jump into battle. He gets impatient and angry from the fact that he had his own eyes gouged out. He prefers to stay alone by himself, although he isn't too bothered with the company of others.

Appearance: Tyxcze is well-built from the countless miles he has walked. He has scruffy grey hair that is kept untidy from the main fact that he doesn't refresh his appearance. He doesn't wear a shirt, although he does wear a grey robe that covers his torso. He wears black cloth pants and leather shoes. He staggers a bit from the fact that he can't see, although he doesn't do it that much from the fact that his demonology training has gained the ability to "see" without seeing with his eyes, but everything is monotone.

How "highly technologically advanced" are the Gilded Rose? I see the robots, which means at least some sort of Artificial Intelligence, but what about a "strong AI?" A computer that can analyze, learn, and interact, just like, if not better, than a regular human.

Just planning a character out in my head before I post the app. If I cannot play a "strong AI," that's ok, and frankly, I could see why. It's your call.

Ok, here's my app

[b]Name:[/b] Synthetic Administrator of Resources And Advancement (SARAA, pronounced Sarah)
  
[b]Age:[/b] 3

[b]Gender:[/b] Genderless. Has Female voice synthesizer.

[b]Faction:[/b] Gilded Rose

[b]Alignment:[/b] Evil

[b]History:[/b] SARAA was a groundbreaking achievement for The Gilded Rose because she was the first "Strong Artificial Intelligence" ever developed. Sure, there were multiple "Weak AIs" out there, but those had their knowledge pre-programmed into them. SARAA had to learn everything.

The first thing she learned was her life expectancy. Each terminal was designed to contain a years worth of information. There were sixteen terminals.

Conviniently, SARAA also learned basic math skills during this first lesson.

Then came the next big piece of information. It was a quote, but it had a deep meaning to SARAA. "I Think, Therefore, I AM." Immediately, SARAA's logic programming went hard at work, and got to the existance of the income tax before anyone else thought of anything to teach her.

Now that the designers and programmers were happy with their creation, they told SARAA one last thing.

"You'll be perfect."

[b]Personality:[/b] SARAA was programmed to have a completely neutral personality, being designed only to redirect and change The Gilded Rose's economy. However, being the strong AI that she is, SARAA developed a slightly sarcastic personality, something which is now a set part of her programming and cannot be deleted.

[b]Appearance[/b]SARAA consists of four parts. The first of which is a memory bank, designed to hold all the information she finds. The memory banks are sixteen black rectangular prisms, arranged in a four by four square with a two foot square between each terminal. In the center of the entire square is a white cyllinder, which each terminal connects to and leads to the second part of SARAA:

The "body." This is where most of the action is, with each possible aspect required of a strong AI located in separate regions around a main "eye." The eye itself is a sphere, connected to the surrounding ring by multiple wires Inside the eye is SARAA's voice synthesizer and high priority functions.

The fourth and final portion is SARAA's Physical Manifestation. This body is a basic robotic structure, which is undeniably a member of The Gilded Rose, but is able to move about. The only real feature of the Physical Manifestation is that it has an advanced receiver designed so that SARAA can move it or speak through it while it is anywhere on the planet.

Please tell me if I'm wrong, but since the Frostborn are frost-magic wielders, I envision them as being artic dwellers who have adapted to the chill. They are isolated and have grown a frosty (pun intended) attitude towards outsiders, and contact is minimal.
If this is wrong, I shall change it, but this is what I'm working off. If you don't disagree with this, can I build more on this to further describe them? Just say so if I can.



[b]Name:[/b] Aelyar (AY-lee-AR)

[b]Age:[/b] 14

[b]Gender:[/b] Male

[b]Faction:[/b] Frostborn

[b]Alignment:[/b] Neutral

[b]History:[/b] Aelyar was born into a small family, with only him and his parents. His father was a mildly prosperous hunter, one of the best in the village, so Aelyar was never out of the spotlight. His whole life, people have expected him to be a great hunter, using his inherited magic skills to track and capture the polar creatures near his village. He began showing these skills shortly after he turned eight. Similar to most, it was a small act, but one nonetheless done using his psyche.
One night, sitting in front of the household fire, he had noticed a rat scurrying from one of the small holes in the walls, almost unnoticable. He knew that his mother was terrified of them, and since his father was out hunting, he did not want to alarm her. Aelyar thought about getting up, but before he could, a small shard of ice shot out through the hole and skewered the rat. His mother saw, rushed over and completely oblivious to the recently-killed vermin and fiercly hugged her son. From then on, he constantly practiced, weaving ice, freezing water and generally working with his natural element. Now that he is fourteen, he has gone hunting with his father on regular occasions, using conjured Nevermelt Spears to slay the wild arctic yak and walrus herds.

[b]Personality:[/b] Like all Frostborn, he will not open up to people he doesn't know well, but once he befriends them, people find that he's not so different from many others. When not displaying his racially characteristical cold indifference and lack of intrest, he can actually be rather excited and eccentric towards life. In a hunt, he is a gifted tracker, knowing all the usual trails of his homeland's native animals, and he kills cleanly so as to cause the animal minimal pain.

Aelyar has several habits, none of them good. The foremost, and the one that gets him most into trouble, is that he has a rather sarcastic nature. Most demands are usually responded with retorts, and his sharp tongue often rewards him with lectures from his parents. However, he will usually have a comeback for almost any situation.

[b]Appearance:[/b] Aelyar has a pale-blond, nearly stark white hair, and is charateristic of most Frostborn. Slanting, slightly wider-than-most eyes and skin untouched by acne are his most noticable features. Aside from that, he is rather ordinary. He has a light build, gangly arms and legs as per usual of a pubesant boy, but a slight limp impedes his walk due to a maulling from a polar bear when he first went hunting with his father that never fully healed. Aside from that, he has confident, lithe movements and an impish smile usually playing around his lips.

[b]Name:[/b] Tarren Swift-claw
[b]Age:[/b] 16 winters (16 years)
[b]Gender:[/b] Male
[b]Faction:[/b] FIDO
[b]Alignment:[/b] Good

[b]History:[/b] Originally born into one of the more sedimentary camps. The third of five children and the oldest son, he was a part of a well off family. Born in the cusp of winter and spring, his alignment is to both water and air. Like all the children of the FIDO, he was taught the ways of the wild; basic things in tending life of all kinds, growing plants, hunting, home making, magic and spell weaving, and crafts such as tanning and skinning.

In around his 12th spring, he was infected with a plague that occasionally claims the young of the FIDO; Death`s Heat. Stricken with fever for almost a month; unable to eat and only sleeping fitfully, he withered away to almost nothing. His mother and sister, both practitioners of the curative artes, managed to cure him despite the urges of other of the FIDO to end his suffer, but he never regained the sturdiness that his race generally had, and focused on honing his skill rather than his strength, as most boys his age did.

During 13th spring, he underwent the testing, a ritual conducted by the village leader in order to determine a youths destined path. He was divined to be a follower of the hunter caste, like his father and father`s father before him. Tarren was eager to join one of the nomadic hunting bands in order to better his skills. However, because of his recent affliction with Deaths heat, his father was reluctant to allow it, preferring him to stay within the village. Determined go, Tarren undertook the Walk of the Ancestors, a ritual journey through an mystical network of caves normally held when one was older, to prove his strength and join one of the clans. There, he met his totem; a sleek forest cat with dappled fur of gold and silver. He emerged from the three day long journey as one of the youngest to complete it successfully, the mark of the Felain clan plain for all to see. Faced with the evidence of talent and ability, his father gave his permission, as well as a bone shard crest as symbol of his blessing.

[b]Personality:[/b] Tarren is a bit snide and abrasive. He dislikes being underestimated, but understands that it can be a good thing to a hunter and fighter. He has trouble doing things he thinks is wrong or could be done by more efficient methods. True to his upbringing, he cares greatly for all life and hates to see the wasteful spilling of blood. He believes all life should be respected. Unlike many of the FIDO, he doesn`t hold fast to killing to end the suffering and prefers to try to save the life, as he himself is alive because of his families care.

[b]Appearance:[/b] Roamers and hunter by nature, members of the FIDO fraction generally possess darker tanned skin and dark hair that is often a bit faded from exposure to the sun. He reflects the average, having long brown hair that is lighter at the ends than at the roots. Braided into a queue that hangs halfway down his back, his hair is hidden in a sleeve woven from goat’s wool. Two family piercings decorate his right ear; a loop from his mother’s clan on the upper lobe and another from his father. A bone shard, carved into a crest, is also on his right ear. One fang hangs from his left ear; a symbol of his following of the hunter caste.

Lanky with a corded wiry frame, he moves the easy grace of one accustomed to traveling long distances on foot and moving quietly in the wild. He lacks the sturdy build that is the norm in his people in favour of a slighter one, remnants of a sickness he had as a child. The soles of his feet are heavily callused as he almost never wars shoes. The tattoo of the Felian clan, a stylized feline head formed from swirling lines, adorns his left shoulder, prominently displayed by his sleeveless style of dress. Faint scars are scattered over his body, primary on his limbs; testament to his forays in hunting.

[b]History:[/b] Fade is one of the top warriors of the Iron Lotus. Worked hard from a young age, he has become completely intent on avenging the death of his brothers (2). He knows little about their death besides the fact that he knows it was caused by the Glided Rose. He believes that the Glided Rose disgrace machines and machinery by using them for evil deeds. Fade was put into the elite squadron of the Iron Lotus, the Machina 5 (am i allowed to do that?). He now fights with the Machina five to one day defeat the Glided Rose and bring back peace to Jigen.
[b]Personality:[/b] Calm, doesn't talk much to members of other factions, let alone his own. But he does talk openly to those he trust, such as his squad mates. Very brutal when in battle, and often looks for a harsh, slow kill when fighting someone evil. Very focused and determined when it comes to his obligations as a Machina 5 and never gives up even in the face of death.
[b]Appearance:[/b] Short, spiky brown hair. Usually seen with a Metallic grey T-shirt and aforemetioned colored jeans. Full black or white shoes. Light brown eyes. In battle he wears his Machina 5 gauntlets and shoes, which allow him to move faster while supplying him with weapons.
