Welcome to the world of Thrae, where supernatural beings rule and humans are very scarce. In this rp, you can be whatever you want, there are always a diverse range of races that live within an area. So feel free to be anything ya want. Anything from an angel to a uh... um... ZOMG sized robot? O_o? Anyways.. Thrae is much like our time, except the technology revolution has started about 50 years ago and has surpassed our own.. So like I've stated before, you can be anything ya want and use any weapon ya want (as long as they're not OPed).

[spoiler=A year later...(read first)]A year has pasted since the story left off.. Alliaster and his friends were able to dethrone Keiz and end his tyrant rule. Soon after Keiz's death, most of the group has either split off or move on to the great beyond. While Alliaster became king of the Demon Kingdom, riots through out the land broke out caused by loyal Keiz followers. It took 3 months to put an end to the riots and clean up the mess. Its been 7 months since the riots have been laid to rest and the castle has been repaired after the damages it took from the fight involving Alliaster, his friends, Keiz and his assassins. Currently, the kingdom is making preparations for a celebration to welcome in the new era of the Demon Kingdom as Alliaster gets officially crowned.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Plot]After weeks of hard work, its finally the day of the kingdom-wide celebration of Alliaster's crowning. The music is grand and the food is even grander. After Alliaster becomes the official king, he steps up to the stand is about to give his inaugural speech, that's being broadcasted all over the kingdom. Just as Alliaster starts, a powerful creature, later identified as a *[url="http://i576.photobucket.com/albums/ss206/Hellraiser10247/fire_demon.jpg"]True Demon[/url]*, attacks main celebration under orders of a mysterious man named [url="http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g355/aquajaguar95/Anime/Evil-1.jpg"]Vincent[/url]. As day breaks, hours later, an emergency broadcast appears on the TV about how portals in the 5 major nations (Demon, Angel, Water, Beast and Mystical) have appeared in the last 2 hours and platoons of True Demons (of lesser powers then that one that attacked the castle) have been invading the nations. Alliaster, and an elite group of fighters, must now go into the portals and kill its keeper in order to seal the portals. Once the portals are sealed (and the platoons are killed off by the nation's army), the group must fight the Master True Demon and then Vincent in order to put an end to this attack of the world.

Will the group succeed in stopping Vincent from destroying the world they know and love? Or will Vincent destroy them and everything else within the world of Thrae? Only time will tell..


[spoiler=*True Demon*]Back when Thrae was just starting out, all supernatural creatures were in their purest forms and humans were more abundant. As humans and supernatural creatures learned to live together in harmony, they started getting to know one another better, if ya know what I mean. Anyways, a majority of the demons didn't agree with this and rose up to destroy all the "tainted" beings and traitors to their ancestors. A noble group, consisting of atleast one from every major species, stood against the demons. The demons, however, were too strong for the group to kill so they went to a last resort: sealing them away. After the clean up of the destruction and the burial of the dead, the group decided that the best way to prevent this even from happening again would be to split up the major species and give them their own terrain in hopes there would be no more cross-breeding and riots over cross-breeding. After a few years, 6 nations were established: Demon, Angel, Water, Beast, Mystical and Human. Over many centuries, human, unfortunately, dwindled in numbers and their land was divided up between the remaining 5 nations.

Each nation set up their own government, though each government is a different take of a monarch rule. After the species split up, they nominated the surviving warriors to become the leader of their nation and so it was. To this day, only 2 leaders can say they have some time of connection with the brave warriors while only one can say they still have a direct bloodline connection.

(So in short, True Demons are demons from ancestral times that are pure, 100% demons, unlike most demons today, who has some type of human blood in them from long ago.)[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Alliaster]Age: 22
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight
Race: Demon

[spoiler=Personality:] Alliaster mostly keeps to himself, following the policy of "speak softly and carry a big stick." Though, in his case, it's a fist. Alliaster isn't a fan of weapons, thinking that they can give a person an unfair advantage in a fight. "Fight's should be fought in fisticuffs, where the only variable is your skill... Not weapons..." is what he normally says when people make remarks about him bringing nothing to a gun fight. Alliaster likes to change his persona to match the situation, allowing him to manipulate the situation if called for. Alliaster is also a quick learner, which explains why he took to alchemy quickly at such a young age...
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Biography:]Alliaster lived most of his life, never knowing of who is father was. This didn't bother him much. He figured that if his father wouldn't put in the effort to know him, he won't put in the effort to get to know him via his mother. One day, Alliaster learned that his father was the Old King of the Demon Kingdom. Unfortunately, he learned of this as his mother died. As she died, she told him that the kingdom needed him and that Keiz needed to be put to a stop. Alliaster knew his mother was right; things in the kingdom were taking a turn for the worse. As he traveled to the castle, a group of people joined in with his fight for the throne. After about 2 months of doing this and that, Keiz was finally killed and Alliaster could finally return the kingdom to hands of true ruler, himself. Its been just short of a year since Keiz was killed and he's about to be officially crowned as king.

[spoiler=*~Dark~Magician~*]
[spoiler=Leandros]Age: 27
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Race: Panthera Leo-Sapien (Called Leo-Sapien for short)
[spoiler=Personality:]
The great and proud Leo-Sapien that is Leandros is indeed boastful of his vast strength and might, an extremely potent member of the Leo-Sapien race of creatures. Though their true origin is unknown, often some beings derogatorily insult them by calling them crossbred Lion Humans, though most that do so never end up alive. The story of their creation is unsure, but the Pectouru Leonis Tribe believe that a divine entity whom the address as the Star Mother blessed them with both the power of the mighty lion and the intelligence and capability of a human. Leandros has a thirst for knowledge[color=#0000ff][size=3][sup]4[/sup][/size][/color] from a young age, and his father, Leandros Maximus[color=#0000ff][size=3][sup]1[/sup][/size][/color] took his knowledgeable son, and manipulated and stimulated his mental power to aid his chieftainship. He was raised into the Chief's family, and this is where some of his pride originates from. He also disapproved of the tribe's, under his father's rule, unjust treatment to women[color=#0000ff][sup][size=3]2[/size][/sup][/color]; he is often considered as the first male feminist of the tribe as he valued the Leo-Sapien's female partners as a blessing. This mainly rooted from his faith: the Goddess being a female and thus made him establish a link between the two. He's gentle, kind, and quite lovable when he's calm, relaxed and generally enjoying himself. However, upon aggression, he can switch to a violent, almost unstoppably brutal beast, allowing his anger to get the best of him. This anger roots from the male Leo-Sapien's large level of testosterone; despite this large aggressive nature expected from most Leo-Sapien males, he can control it with his extremely capable will power. In a calm state, Leandros can connect to emotional levels, but aggravated his head can be objectively active, very strategically, and often a severely dangerous weapon. From the family heritage, apparently the majority of Leandros' intensely deadly aggressive nature came from his mother, whereas his calmer side was his father's. Needless to say, this aggressive, valiant, and patient Chieftain is a natural born leader.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Biography:]
Leandros was born into the Chieftain, son of Chieftain father Leandros Maximus and Head Huntress mother Adwar. Due to the “calming effect “[color=#0000ff][sup][size=3]3[/size][/sup][/color] of the Leo-Sapiens, Adwar had immediately retire from her position, leaving it to her sister and Leandros' aunt. His mother was a much more aggressive Lioness5 than her husband, who was very patient with his role. Leandros Maximus had an arranged marriage, done by his father and Leandros' grandfather, for the unity of the Hunters and the Chieftainship, settling dispute between the two families. But as the loving couple saw their child's face, they decided one day, he shall stumble across love on his own accord, trusting his future in his young hands. The young cub was close to his mother at the younger years, and wasn't a burden on the parent's. He rarely cried, nor did he misbehave. Oddly, he was a perfect baby. Unlike the playful little cub, his parents were very protective over the tot, often scaring away anyone other than the other parent in fears that they would harm Leandros in some manner.

As he soon entered childhood, Leandros' father began to show him of the roles a chieftain had. And Leandros himself enjoyed it, the smiling civilians, all the happy faces his father had caused. But it was from this young age he already saw his father's flaws. As both his parents insisted, they both taught him of the faith that was of the Star Mother. And from this, and his nurturing mother, Leandros established the sanctity of the role of women, often regarding them as “blessings” of the Goddess. But his father's rule, unlike his aspirations, weren't what he'd expect. His father did tell him that he did rule a patriarchal tribe, but a minor one. He told his son, along with Adwar, of the other tribes outside their own. To this, Leandros was horrified, and couldn't believe how unjust the other tribes treated their women. And from this, Leandros decided his rule would never cause nor permit harm of any kind to a Lioness, nor a Lion, of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe.

The child maintained his father's lessons, but insisted on attending a public school. Needless to say, with his stature, he had no bullies whatsoever but rather was swamped by other Lions[color=#0000ff][sup][size=3]5[/size][/sup][/color] and Lionesses wanting to be the Chieftain’s son's friend, all but one Lioness who didn't seem to care. This Lioness was Arielle, a daughter of the Priests[color=#0000ff][sup][size=3]6[/size][/sup][/color] of the tribe, but a practitioner of sorcery. Unlike the others, she was deep into her study and thought. Two years in advance of her class, she was extremely intelligent and distant from the other children. But she was different, and in Leandros' eyes, special. He developed a crush for the Lioness at an early stage, but his typical childish shyness shunned him from her. Apart from that, he did well in his studies.

His adolescent years were tougher on the boy, with his crush on Arielle not loosening on his mind, he decided to finally sum up the courage and tell her. And she told him that she'd think about it. Not crushing his spirits, the two eventually dated and it bloomed into a romance. However, this may seem as a wonderful accomplishment. It's negative outcome? Leandros shirked his duties with his father to be with Arielle. Even though his parents understood, they both told him as the future Chieftain he would soon become, he needed to focus on his duties. Not only this, Leandros soon became involved in political warfare between tribes, and for the first time in his life was sent onto the battlefield as a soldier rather than an heir. Despite his excellent ability in combat, he never enjoyed it. And to top this all off, he ascended to the throne at age 17, his father passing away during the night from an assassination. The young chieftain, alongside his mother's aide, soon took control and their tribe became stronger.

And it was at age 19 when his mother told him that he would no longer be able to rely on her, leaving her soon, the Chieftain of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe, to rule as she travelled the vast blue yonder. Age 20, Leandros began his aspiration to rebuild the tribe for equality and justice, where no-one was superior, nor inferior, to another in regards to rights. And doing so he became known as Leandros of Equality, although those against his anti-patriarchal society named him Leandros the He-She Chief. But the Lion had not a second for these lesser issues. Two years in, he felt that he needed a partner for him. And he recalled upon his old flame Arielle, and when Leandros was a month into his 23rd year, the pair married and ruled over the tribe as partners.

Now, at age 27, four years since his marriage with Arielle, he is hoping to finally conceive with his wife and begin his prodigy. He hopes for a baby girl, so he can truly declare the reign of patriarchy in his tribe as obsolete forever.

[/spoiler]
[spoiler= Misc. Info:]
In this app, there are numbers listed on certain items. In here, you can see the relating article with a brief description to clarify it:
[color=#0000ff][b]1:[/b][/color] [i]“Maximus”[/i]/[i]”Maxima”[/i] is a title achieved to any male or female, depending on the gender of the offspring, who bears offspring, the title meaning [i]“Major”[/i] or [i]“Senior”[/i], and the child often bearing the father's name, except in the circumstance of a female chieftain, in which case the mother's name would be taken. If a second child of the same gender is born, that child would be named after the corresponding parent, followed by [i]Dua, Tria,[/i] etc.
[color=#0000ff][b]2:[/b][/color] With exception to the [i]“Pectouru Leonis”[/i] Tribe (meaning [i]“Lionheart”[/i]), almost virtually every single other Leo-Sapien governed tribe has been known as patriarchal, from lesser to extreme cases.
[b][color=#0000ff]3:[/color][/b] Leo-Sapiens have a much larger level of hormones than human beings; the males having more testosterone and the females having more estrogen. Female Leo-Sapiens also have higher levels of testosterone than most human women also, which gives them their aggressive nature. Oddly, both male and females seem to “calm” when they produce offspring. Thought to be a reduction of the testosterone, it is actually a repression of the hormone.
[color=#0000ff][b]4:[/b][/color] Despite their tribal mannerisms and rituals, the Leo-Sapiens are all naturally scientific, and though most are decided to be warriors, some are remained as scholars of nature.
[b][color=#0000ff]5:[/color][/b] Even though they are neither Lions nor Lionesses, the Leo-Sapiens of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe, and many others, prefer to be addressed as such for ease. Others, however, are likely to execute whoever calls them the “demeaning” name.
[color=#0000ff][b]6: [/b][/color]All members of the Clergy of the Star Mother's faith are permitted to have offspring and live normal Leo-Sapien lives, as otherwise they could not inform those of the public of guidance.[/spoiler]
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Arielle]Age: 25
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Race: Panthera Leo-Sapien (Called Leo-Sapien for short)
[spoiler=Personality:]
This induvidual of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe doesn't boast the natural pride of a normal Leo-Sapien. Arielle is much more calmer, relaxed, and gentle natured. A strong believer in the Star Mother, being the daughter of the Priests, she took a different calling, a different vocation to priesthood and left her role in the clergy. Rather, she took interest in magic, in particular the practical uses of the energy. She does have a scientific side to her, always willing to learn, but she will defend her beliefs strongly. She doesn't like being told she's believing in the wrong Goddess, in fact she hates it. She doesn't like prejudiced people in the slightest manner, but will be polite to them regardless. Arielle is a person who's patience, though large, can be pushed, and doing so will put this Lioness in a very very bad mood. Like al Leo-Sapiens, she has an aggresive nature too, though rarely seen. But regardless it is there. Most of the time she is gentle and playful, toying around with her husband and very fond of little children. She shows the early stages of motherhood in a Leo-Sapien even though she is currently not pregnant, although many believe that she was blessed with this early stage because of her desire to conceive and bear the future heir of Leandros' tribe. Arielle can, and will, be protective of young allies, often using her magic to shield them rather than herself. She shows selflessness, and is an extremelly good thinker unlike Leandros at times.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Biography:]
Arielle was raised in a family of priests, honouring the Star Mother with her birth they claimed as she was born under a shooting sar, which was claimed to be the Star Mother's call to duty. And so because of this Arielle was forbidden to become a priestess like her mother, Arielle Maxima, as her destiny laid elsewhere as someone of severe significance. Though she learned of her faith, she was not permitted to partake in the festivals and rituals her sisters, Arielle Dua and Arielle Tria, would do. And also unlike her sisters, she was not given an arranged marriage as her parents believed it would affect her destiny as a child to affect the future for the better. She was a very intelligent baby, and learnt exceedingly well. Her father, Danil, thought that though priesthod would disturb her future, the art of magic would allow her to put her amazing intellect to use.

And so from a young age she was learning with her father to harness her magical energy imbued within her body. His father, though a priest of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe, was once a shaman of the tribe and excelled in both mastering the secrets of the Sourustones and mastery of the Spell "Madante" which to normal shamans, mages, wizards, magicians and sages would send them mentally insane, but Danil had managed to practise his magical energy recuperation skill to an extent that he would be safe from the spell's negative and catastrophic side effect. And at age 5, Arielle had mastered the spell, which portrayed her intelligence as genius for such a young child.

And as the young Lioness enter school, two years younger than all the other cubs. She never noticed Leandros when he first met her, she was too focussed into her work, sorcery and magic. But the reason she didn't crowd to him because she didn't see him as Leandros, son of Leandros Maximus, the Chieftain of the Tribe, but simply as another boy. That was part of her charm to Leandros, she didn't like to prejudge people but rather talk to them, get to know them before any opinion would be formed. And in higher education, she did eventually notice the heir, and when she told him "I'd have to think about it" she was merely playing hard to get. She wasn't as well endowed as other Leo-Sapien Lionesses, so she knew Leandros hadn't fell for her simply for her looks, and this sparked her attraction to him.

She didn't like Leandros shirking his duties. Though she enjoyed spending time with him, she knew that if he were to be the Chieftain he would have to focus, and she was okay with that. The only problem was Leandros was too nice for his own good. And soon after his father passed away, she insisted that they stopped seeing eachother, he needed time to recover and she knew that he wouldn't get over it if she was their distracting him. Arielle wanted Leandros to face it head on, and he did as he ascended to Cheiftainship with a roar, his mother aiding him at first, but he maintained his impressive rule, especially with the abolishment of the patriarchy of the Tribe.

Two years, they began to see eachother again, their passion reignited, and they eventually married as she became the wife of the Chieftain of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe, or for short the Muchaar. Unsure of the meaning of this phrase, due to it coming from extremelly early and incomprehensable language, she didn't care. They ruled the pride with honour, dignity, and she did share a little of her husband's pride, insisiting that it wasn't her own as she wasn't "like that".

Arielle's call of duty refers to the belief of the Star Mother. According to the belief, the Star Mother had fallen from the Heavens of which she ruled from.

This meant that any child born under a shooting star was seen as special, one who would free the Star Mother from her Threally binds and set her free into the heavens above.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Lunar Origin]
[spoiler=Luna Solen]Age: 23
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Race: Demon

[spoiler=Personality:]
Luna's personality has taken a turn for the better these days. Once she was an assassin that would carry out orders without a feeling of remorse; now, though, she is hesitant to take the life of anything even if it was required of her. Some of the soldiers who served under her whilst she was a 'Hand' would say that she has grown soft... and they aren't far from being right. She's grown more dry and sarcastic as a result of living with her sister, Catherine, but this side of her personality is completely pushed away while talking to old friends. Her fits of rage have also seemed to dissipate with the ending of Keiz's rule.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Biography:]
As a child Luna was given to the military to be put to use; such is the way of the Solen family. Her affinity with magic had swiftly earned her a place in the ranks of Keiz's military, with herself becoming a full fledged 'Hand' at 15. After three years of that gig, though, she grew tired of the job and just up and quit. After two years of hiatus from the forces she was called back under regal order to serve as the kings personal bodyguard.
After some time she was given an order to carry out an assassination. This one, however, seemed quite urgent, as she was ordered to carry it out by Keiz himself. Without a moments hesitation she went to find her target- no, targets, and end their lives.
Her first target was an attractive, innocent looking demoness. She looked to be the age where she could have children who were as old as Luna herself. Remorseless, she slit the old woman's throat... but did she really need to do this? Interested, she sat around to view her second target before attempting to kill him.
He had the features of the woman, and was probably her son. He screamed at the sight of his dying mother and wept. She kept watching, waiting for the right moment to strike... but then the woman spoke.

Luna had now given up the notion of killing the boy, but she didn't know what compelled her to do this. She returned to Keiz and lied about not being able to find Alliaster, secretly yearning for him to overthrow the tyrant. She was split in her mind, though; it was her fault that the boy would try and take the thrown, for if she didn't kill his mother than none of this wouldn't have happened... or at least that is how she viewed it. Feeling both guilty and proud of what she had done, she left Keiz's castle under the ruse of being ill to go see Alliaster and see what she could do to help him on his quest.

[spoiler=Weapons:]Primary: She primarily fights by amplifying the magical energies generated around her by nearly infinitely compressing and shooting the energy at extreme speeds.

Misc (optional): She can easily fight with her hands with the aid of magic.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Skills/Abilities:]
[b]Infinite Mana Generation:[/b] Luna has the odd ability to generate her own field of endless mana around her. As such, she is almost never in need of rest from mana fatigue anymore.
[b]Skilled Killer:[/b] As a Hand, Luna was trained in the art of stealth and assassination, and has learned many tricks to exploit ways to end ones life.
[b]Compression: [/b]Luna can compress magic to the point of a single molecule, building up massive energy in a very very short time. She can then fire the spell like a bullet, causing widespread destruction wherever it would hit.
[b]Bolting Hand: [/b]A spell that Luna came up with that abuses her special ability to 'compress' magic near infinitely. She compresses the energy around her palm to the itty-bitty size of a thumbtack head, then fires the ball at her enemy. The ball grows as it draws in closer to its target, and by the time it reaches them it could very well be at least 250x the size it was normally. Takes a huge toll on her physical state.
[b]Recall:[/b] She can use her magic to 'compress' herself and speed up travel to a place as long as she knows where the place is and has been there in the past.
[b]Flight: [/b]By concentrating her energy into her back, she can cause wings to form, albeit for a short time.
[b]Lockpicking: [/b]Uses magic to pick locks. Easy stuff.
[b]Advanced Healing: [/b]Due to the sheer amount of mana generated by Luna, she can very easily heal a multitude of wounds at once, though this will take a significant toll on her physical state if not performed on herself.

[spoiler=One Year Catchup]Luna left the side of Alliaster and company to go live out her life with her sister, Catherine. She felt guilty enough being around Alliaster due to killing his mother. She will occasionally pay visit to the castle despite this.[/spoiler]
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Catherine (Cat-ah-rin) 'Hope' Solen (Saw-Lenn)]Age: 19
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual
Race: Demon

[spoiler=Personality:]
Catherine is a bit of an anti-cynic; she doesn't work for her own personal gain at all, but for the good of everybody around her. This was reflected in the Solon family itself when she took over. Once a band of vagrants and thieves, it was quickly turned around by Catherine once she recieved the placement as head of the house.

This doesn't mean she doesn't have her own mischeivous side, however. Her intentions, although good, are sure to cause a stir no matter how subtle it is. She also likes to put a lot of dramatic flair in her speech, not afraid to glorify herself and belittle others. You could easily describe her as haughty, but that barely begins to scratch the surface of this over-confident woman.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Biography:]
Catherine was raised on the simple phrase 'Dog Eat Dog'. She quickly worked her way to the top of the food chain within the large Solen family, becoming the 'favorite' of her father. At the age of 6 she was recognized as a prodigy in terms of making deals- she could easily convince almost anyone to part with their possessions for a 'reasonable' price. Unbeknownst to her family, and Catherine, for that matter, there was more to her convincing than just some pretty looks and her sheer confidence in herself.

At the age of 12 she was designated as the heir to the Solen family business. She objected to her fathers wishes to leading such a large organization, but he had faith in her. At the age of 16 her father passed away, leaving her to the families affairs. She quickly stopped any and all illegal activities that they were involved in, and paid off any debts they had through various 'services' and such.

Catherine also met her older sister, Luna, at 16. They quickly became the best of friends, being nearly inseparable for a time. She's now taken an emotionally scarred Luna in as a guest in her house, dedicating a lot of her time to give support to her.

[spoiler=Magus]Age: 32
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight
Race: Human

[spoiler=Personality:]
Magus can be quite smug at times, and will usually taunt people he deems weak, only to swat them away like flies when they oppose him, but would usually spare those that try to attack him, especially if he was the one that made them do so. When he's not being smug, and isn't taunting his enemies, he can either be very serious, or quite sarcastic. He will usually notice flaws with people, or groups, or even races as a whole, and isn't hesitant to point them out, whether or not it would start a fight or not, he wouldn't mind, he'd be fine with having a bit of a brawl, or even a one sided-fight, it doesn't matter to him, he'll deal with it.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Biography:]
Magus was born into greatness. He had a powerful family, full of powerful people, not only power-holding wise, but strength and magic wise as well. Magus trained in many different kinds of Martial arts, from Tae Kwon Do, to Bojuka, to Shinkendo, from an early age resulting in a very well built physique, and immense strength. He also trained in the arts of black magic, learning his way around both singular and wide ranged elemental spells, though, even in the present, he has yet to learn to combine the elements. Magus has traveled all around the world, one time in particular, he visited a certain kingdom that was under tyrannical rule by a false ruler, the real prince came along with some buds and killed the prick. A year later, they were apparently celebrating something to due with him, and Magus decided that a festival may not be so bad, so he went to it witnessed the attack, saw the news broadcast, yadda yadda yadda. He is currently still in that kingdom, having not found a reason to go back anywhere else.

[spoiler=Supreme Gamemaster]
[spoiler=Arthracia "Thraci" Dent]Age: 22
Gender: F
Sexuality: Kinsey V
Race: Mage
[spoiler=Personality:]Thraci isn't a bad person, but she isn't an especially good one, either. She'd much rather be in a warm university library reading a book or three and studying up on magic than fighting over the throne and fate of the Demon Kingdom. That, of course, won't happen for a while. The main reason she opposes the demons is that they keep trying to kill her; she's really just getting swept along with everything. She's no great planner... or fighter, actually. She's sort of just there, being useless and trying to make sense of it all. Then again, what did you expect from a Dent?
Thraci is very down-to-earth and a slow, deliberate thinker. Her sense of humour is nothing special, though she has a very impressive deadpan when she has the cognition to employ it, and though she can think very well and receive insights that most couldn't, she needs a great deal of time and concentration to do so. Unfortunately, that down-to-earth nature, the same thing that makes her a very effective scientist, also makes her very ill-prepared to wage war against True Demons and try to save the world. I expect she'll spend most of her time either snarking at her teammates, if drama happens, or trying and failing to make sense of the world around her, when action happens.
In other words, she really is a lead-witted little bugger.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Biography:]Arthracia Dent (she goes by Thraci) is, like most people whose names start with "Arth" and end with "Dent," really, really boring*. Her life was relatively privileged*, spent in a reasonably wealthy but utterly unimportant suburb. She had a slightly above-average ability with magic and a slightly above-average wit, so she found her way to a relatively prestigious magical academy. It is at this point that she made her most significant discovery. While attempting to create a localized vacuum for an experiment, she was distracted by the presence of a navy blue tote bag she was sure she'd lost years prior. In her distraction, she accidentally created a horizontal tornado. The tornado decimated the wall of the university, but it dissipated quickly once Thraci stopped powering the spell. Without going too far into the field of metaphysics, I will simply say that magic has a tendency to stick to itself; even without a power source, a helical spell like the tornado should have lasted much longer (and, for that matter, done less damage). Dent barely managed to stay in school by developing a possible explanation for the strange behaviour of her spell. She's still researching the Dent effect, among other things.

Unfortunately*, as Thraci was about to commence her postgraduate studies, royal soldiers closed the university down. Thraci's parents didn't have the money to support her, let alone pay for graduate studies thanks to heavy taxes, gambling, and Mr. Urbaska Dent choosing the wrong night not to bring a towel. Thraci herself had a fair amount of money accrued by doing a great many odd jobs (most of which had something to do with either a library or a bookstore). Thus, Thraci was left to roam the land, searching for the money she'd need to pay for a proper* education. The university was never reopened; it was rather backwater, after all, and all the professors had retired and gone off to play cricket. So she was still trying and failing to find a place to learn when the town she was in at the moment was beseiged by True Demons and their armies. She'd have died if a spaceship hadn't fallen on the True Demon that was about to kill her. A strange* man came out of the spaceship, called Thraci a lead-witted little bugger, got back into the spaceship, and left.

And that's the roleplay begins*.

*Your mileage may vary.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Appearance:]Thraci is a girl. This fact rarely needs clarification -- she looks plenty feminine -- but I thought I'd better get that out of the way before I started. She's female in both gender and sex, and there is very little ambiguity about that. She is also a reasonably pure-blooded mage, not that one can tell the difference between a mage and a human anyway. Thus, she has things like hair (in this case, black, long, wavy, and almost never tied), eyes (two, both a very boring shade of grey), non-furred skin (a sort of unsaturated yellow-pink), arms (two), legs (two), feet (two, rather small), and a face (small, neither round nor thin). She also has round ears on either side of her head which, while terribly insensitive in the grand scheme of things, are sharper than those of most [i]homo sapiens[/i].

Thraci is, in fact, an ordained sorceress of the first degree, so she has the requisite robes to match her profession. They're black, mostly, but there are also red elements and gold highlights. They have sleeves (red), cover her body, and fit her rather nicely. They leave room for her legs to run and for her hands (of which she has two, both of which are small with long, thin fingers adept at manipulating instruments and turning pages) to operate. She even has a fancy magical necklace and wand to go with her sorceress getup. The wand is very long, like a cabaret cane, and it's said that she'd be able to dance very nicely with it if she ever tried. Her pendant glows white when she uses magic and is shaped like the moon. Oddly enough, because of the abuse it's undergone over the years, it looks less like the moon of Thrae than the moon of a big rocky planet in the Milky Way galaxy.

Ordinarily, Thraci wouldn't go around in her sorceress's garb, but since all manner of things seem to want to kill her and everyone around her these days, she figures it's best to keep it on most of the time. In other words, I don't have to describe any other outfits right now. Convenient, no?[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Weapons:]Primary: She has some training with one-handed swords and daggers thanks to an incident involving one Cartato E. Vellison and a strip club. She's nowhere near military proficiency, however, and she'd only be able to accomplish anything with a lucky shot.
Secondary (optional): She's pretty good at smacking people upside the head with books. Thanks to years of library work, she can wield the single-volume version of [i]The King of the Circular Finger Jewelry[/i] dextrously with one hand.
Misc (optional): She can create weapons using Iron Synthesis. That doesn't mean she can use them. She is a civilian, after all.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Skills/Abilities:]Arthracia is actually a typical student of magic -- in particular, magical research. Her spells, therefore, are not necessarily combat oriented. She does, however, know some defencive spells:
>Flare: The most basic of offencive spells; it uses the cohesive properties of magic to create and throw a sphere of magical fire. Mages can play a form of catch with Flares.
>Mega Flare: A form of Flare created by Arthracia. It exploits the Dent effect to create a Flare much bigger than would normally be possible. The sphere shrinks as it travels; it dissipates roughly ten meters ahead of where it was fired. If it hits something before then, it explodes. Arthracia recoups some of the energy from this spell, so the main use of it is to throw around several at once and confuse the enemy.
>Royal Flare: A really freaking huge Flare. It covers the whole room, and it isn't thrown, but instead retracted. Unless you're Patchouli Knowledge and in good health, which is... unlikely, you need some sort of talisman to make up the titanic initial cost. The mage actually recalls the flare at the end of the spell, recouping some of the cost and making the spell possible for mortals. If the caster is hit midway through and unable to recall the spell, they're as good as dead, but thankfully, it's almost impossible to get hit while surrounded by a giant fireball.
>Wipe Temperature: Uses her temperature control to drastically lower the temperature of the water surrounding an enemy, effectively freezing them solid. The nature of the spell makes it fairly obvious, however; the target has about a second to get out of the way. Of course, if they're distracted... well, not much they can do about that.
>Duct Typhoon: A horizontal, localized tornado hits the enemy. Arthracia created this spell by accident when she was trying to create a localized vacuum for research purposes. She took out the wall and was nearly expelled from the university she was then studying at. She wrote her undergraduate thesis on the properties of magic revealed by the spell; she's still testing her "Dent effect," which also guides her unique (except for that one raven from Gensokyo) spell, Mega Flare.
>Duct Downdraft: Duct Typhoon PLUS FIRE!
>Duct Waterspout: Duct Typhoon PLUS WATER!
>Stonewall: Raises the earth around her. A ridiculously basic spell that Thraci can perform very, very quickly, to launch, crush (backwards), or impale her enemies if they get too close.
>Iron Synthesis: She can use magic to materialize iron objects using extra-planetary iron. Very useful for times when she's locked out of a room, for example, or when a nearby ally needs a weapon. Not very useful in combat, since Thraci doesn't know how to use them.

She also has a host of other non-combative spells, including, but not limited to, a series of elemental wards, some physical barriers, far too many search spells, and some environmental manipulation magic for experimentation. Her magical power level is, however, only slightly above average.[/spoiler]
[spoiler= Misc. Info:]Some of the metaphysics associated with the Dent effect, and why Thraci's spells work at all, for those geeky enough to care:
>[b]Subspace[/b] is the source of all magical power. The composition of subspace is hotly contested by modern magical researchers. Some say that it consists of [b]leylines[/b], thin conduits overlaid over Thrae's physical geography like a massive, spherical spiderweb. Modern researchers are more likely to say that it's a sort of magical cloud hanging over Thrae. Either way, magic is almost impossible to use over 9000 kilometers above sea level. Subspace is undetectable most of the time; it's a sort of parallel dimension that's only detectable at all when magic is used. Then, local subspace tends to "light up." Combat mages usually try to use as little mana as possible so as to make their subspace imprints less readable.
>On that note, mana is the intangible force that guides all magic. Mana is used to affect natural phenomena as the spellcaster desires.
>Mana is cohesive; i.e., mana tends to attract mana. The cohesiveness of mana is critical to magical studies. It's very difficult, for example, to create a magical beam with a great deal of force, since the mana will lag behind. Similarly, a large clump of mana, like a primitive fireball spell, moves slowly and doesn't hit with much force. The usual solution is to make the mana spin. Spinning mana has less range than solitary mana, but it hits with much more power, since the mana is sticking together anyway. Until recently, it was thought that the reason spinning mana had less range was because of the energy needed to make the mana spin, but...
>...the Dent effect says otherwise. According to Dent and her fellow researchers, concentrated, rapidly moving mana tends to dissipate back into subspace without a mana supply (i.e. continued casting by a sorcerer). Dent was still working on testing it and developing an equation to describe how it might work when the university was closed. She still doesn't know how or if it works, but hey, most sorcerers don't even know it might exist.

Also, for those who don't know, the Kinsey scale is a scale from zero to six describing a person's sexual orientation at any given time. Higher scores are, well, gayer. Three is pure bisexuality, zero is pure heterosexuality, and six is pure homosexuality, but those numbers are surprisingly rare. One (such as myself IRL) and five (such as Thraci) are "pretty much straight" and "pretty much gay" respectively; twos and fours might identify as bisexuals that just so happen to prefer one gender, or they might just be confused. Depends on the person. Note that a Kinsey rating can and does change over a person's lifetime, and might even change, for example, over the course of a single roleplay.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Altair Ibn-La'Ahad]
[spoiler=Akarui]Age: Hundreds of thousands, although in this form, one year-seven months old
Gender: M
Sexuality: Straight
Race: Dragon
[spoiler=Personality]
Akarui is quite a proud dragon, seemingly the last of his race although he carries a lot of pride with his race. He is very intelligent and enjoys correcting other's mistakes. With his second reincarnation, he seems to be more of a carnivore, although will eat veggies if he must. He also seems to find his telepathy quite amusing, as if done correctly he can make people think that he's talking to them directly, when in fact no one is there at all.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Biography]
Akarui once reigned as an immortal dragon in a faraway kingdom, but that was hundreds of thousands of years ago, he was much larger back then, being large enough to be compared to a mountain, although he was not quite the size of one. One day, a paranoid king sent an assassin to kill him out of terror of what he could do. No one knows how said assassin managed to do so, but he did it. Mortally wounded, Akarui used the magic only dragons can use, with it, he reincarnated himself into the body of an 16-year-old boy. He assumed the age and identity of this boy, while losing all his memories. Two years later, he ventured in search of answers to remembering. Making a deal with Keiz to kill Alliaster, only to change factions when an old man cast a spell on him, returning his memories. Alliaster and his other friends arrived late to the castle, Akarui had beaten them there and was currently in his day-long fight with Keiz, only to end with Akarui's distraction and his seemingly death. Within his final moments, he reincarnated himself using dragon magic, this only being possible due to the dragon blood in the human body's veins. He created an egg which hatched immediately into his current form. Being forced to command his old body like a puppet, he aided Alliaster in Keiz's death and has remained within this kingdom ever since.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Appearance]
Akarui is a dragon about three feet larger than that of the average human being (both vertical and horizontal, so about 8'6") and is to continue growing until his death or reincarnation. He also weighs around 500 pounds, he also seems to be quite muscular, if a dragon can seem muscular. His scales are black while his eyes are grey with the usual dragon slit. His wings are quite noticable as well, they are also black bat-like with thin membranes. His claws and teeth being a perfect shade of white until he makes a kill during his hunt or when he draws blood from an enemy. His scales reflect the sunlight while he is directly in it.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Weapons:]Primary: Nothing, unless you count fangs and claws
Secondary: Magical armor that grows along with his body so that he does not need new armor forged, anything humanoid can put it on him
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Skills/Abilities:]
[b]Dragon Magic:[/b] A vert tricky magic, nearly anything can be done with it, although it requires said dragon to be under emotional stress, when his emotions are raging, when on the verge of death and sometimes, though rarely at completely random times to be used
[b]Flaming Breath:[/b] The only type of Dragon Magic a dragon can use willingly, dragons do not achieve this until they are 6 months of age, the temperature can also be willed between 50°C-10,000°C, although the maximum temperature cannot be reached until the dragon is a decade years old, until then the maximum is 2,500°C, 5,000°C is the maximum as of 5 years of age.
[b]Flight:[/b] Average dragon flight
[b]Telepathy:[/b] Being a dragon, this is the only way Akarui can communicate with other living beings, while in combat he can use this to predict an enemy's movement. Also, if the target is dumb enough, he can plant a thought into any target's head using this, he can also use this on smarter targets, but if they are not distracted or something of the sort, they will realize that it was him that planted this thought in their head and ignore it. He also enjoys and finds it ammusing using this against his prey while he hunts for food.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=One Year Catchup]Akarui has remained by Alliaster's side for the past year and seven months, claiming that he should not leave this kingdom due to his third birth taking place within that very castle. Growing at quite the impressive pace and enjoying spending his time within Alliaster's throne room; the place of his third birth.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Countess Noah Lyman]Age: 17
Gender: Hermaphrodite (a proper one... y'know, with both reproductive organs)
Sexuality: Asexual/Homosexual (seriously, if she has sex with girls, she's a lesbian and if she has sex with guys, she's gay. Therefore, she's a homosexual person no matter what way you look at it D:)
Race: Vrykolakas
Side: None
[spoiler=Personality:]Noah can be very flirtatious around any gender of beings, even females. Once she gets the blood she needs from them though, she'll more often than not want nothing more to do with them... at least not in another 24 hours. However, if at least 72 hours passed since her last feed instead, she'll suffer from a dehydration that only blood can truly quench. If she tries to drink anything else, it'll only come back within seconds. At this stage, Noah will drop the flirtation and adopt a more desperate approach.[/spoiler][spoiler=Biography:]Various mutations in Countess Noah's body have seemed to greatly weaken the genetic flaws in the stereotypical vampire. Because of this, she isn't going to be warded away from a particular place any time soon. For example, placing a mirror in front of a door doesn't even work against her, and she won't be fooled by the mustard-seeds-on-roof trick. Crufixices are better off being thrown at her as well, especially if they're sharp around the edges. Luckily for those who're desperate in keeping her away, she still suffers light-triggered migraines. She's also allergic to wild roses, garlic and hawthorn plants, and is actually capable of suffering hypothermia when holy water is splashed on her. However, the absolute second best way to save yourself from her wrath is to get your ass over to a consecrated ground... 'cause that's the one thing she [i]hasn't[/i] managed to get over, mutation or otherwise. But she could just snipe you, which is why the best way is to make sure you don't piss her off.[/spoiler][spoiler=Appearance:][img]http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2011/230/0/4/manga_commish__soupy182_pg5_by_enjelia-d472z0q.png[/img]

If Noah has recently fed off another being, the fangs will be size of a regular human's, but they'll grow to thrice that size within 24 hours. Sometimes a lethal venom will develop in Noah's fangs, particularly when she hasn't fed for days. In such a case, Noah will bite in one place of the body to deposit the venom, which is injected immediately, and then bite once more in an area of the body well away from the initial bite for feeding.
Secondary: Mosin Nagant: A sniper rifle that fires tranquilliser darts. Noah will only use this when she suspects her targets would try to evade her by the time she gets there.

Gender: Male
Sexuality: Not designed to engage in relationships

[spoiler=Personality:]Sarge has an aggressive nature, and likes to shoot his guns a bunch. In truth, that's [i]mostly[/i] what he was programmed to do, although he does have an advanced artificial intelligence that allows him to realize who's a friend and who's an enemy. However, he's far from hesitant to shoot down all those that oppose him. Sarge also dislikes suspicious characters, and needs to know he can trust people before he can even think about allying himself with them. He also has a slight habit of showing off his kills, regardless of whoever he's around with at the time.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Biography:]Coming from a distant time... approximately 258 years further [i]into[/i] time to be exact, Sarge is here to kick ass and chew bubblegum. And he's all outta gum! Oooor maybe he still has some in his left pocket, he doesn't feel like checking. But what he does feel like doing is getting rid of these 'True Demon' scumbags once and for all. The superior technologies within Sarge are bound to come in handy sooner or later, especially since they've been proven to work in his own time, were apparently the True Demons are much stronger. Sarge would fight them then, but he likes it better when they die faster. And who doesn't? Considering they're a diabolical threat and all.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Rupert Giles]
[spoiler=Sinn Alldin]Age: 38
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight, but doesn't much care for romance.
Race: Human
[spoiler=Personality]Sinn barely talks due to his training. He had learned that to listen and learn is better than to speak. Unless he actually has something to say, he says nothing. He doesn't agree, he doesn't disagree, he brings up his own unique points in a conversation and says it in the least amount of words possible. I said above that he doesn't agree. This is a big point. He prefers "No" and words like "Possibly" and "maybe" instead of a straight out "yes". The complete opposite of a ladies man, he prefers to keep anything romantic out of his life as he believes as long as he keeps anyone besides his liege, and his family, out of his life he will be more powerful than the Demon he created his Pact with so he can destroy it. Although, since the fall of Keiz, Sinn has become slightly more friendly. He seems gruff and rather mean at first, but once you get to know him, he is really nice. You just have to make him trust you.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Biography] Sinn was born in a town where it was dog-eat-dog, kill or be killed, rob or be robbed. Sinn excelled at the art of Assassination, which his parents also specialized in. His sister was a master thief. His brother was a general thug, arrested more than 5 times. While his sister made most of the money, he became a contract killer in the Demon City sending half his earnings to his parents. Soon after he moved to the Demon City, sickness hit his hometown, Yran. His mother, Alice, escaped without harm but his father and brother died. Nothing was heard of his sister. Sinn and Alice found Keiz and, desperate to find their lost one, began to work for him. Eventually, on a mission far from the Demon City, Sinn found his sister. Or, part of her. Her arm, with the birthmark of a saber, was found in a cave, along with bones. But a trail of blood said that she escaped. He followed the trail and found her, weak and dying. His sister, whose name is Wisteria, had an infected wound. Sinn finished his job quickly and headed back to the Demon City, to find the King had died. He struck a deal with Keiz to help him keep the throne if Keiz helped Wisteria. Keiz did all he could, but nearly failed. Sinn struck a pact with a demon to give him dark powers. He healed Wisterias arm completely, but at the cost of his sanity. After a few months of help, he was back. But he knows the demon isn't done yet. It will cause trouble at the least convenient moment, he knows....for it whispers dark secrets in the back of his head, torturing him............. (unrelated: Anything different is in the one-year catchup.)
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Appearance]Face: Sinn has a scar on his face that cuts diagonally across his whole face. His eyes are nearly black, they are so dark, with barely any whites.
Hair: Black hair, buzz cut.
Physique: Slightly on the large side for an Assassin, Sinn is quite muscular and has great strength, although most of it is from his Pact.
Height: 5'7
Weight: 223 lbs.
Clothing: Sinn wears a black hooded cloak, with black leather armor with a white design on the back. He wears dark red gloves and boots, and has a black belt with a silver belt buckle with a demonic design.
Marks: Like his sister, Sinn has a birthmark on his left arm. It is the shape of a serpent.
Skin: He always seems to have a perfect tan.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Weapons]Primary: A rifle of his own creation, it is the MSAR (Multiple Setting Assault Rifle). It has a rotating barrel that lets him choose between 4 different settings.
First Setting: The default setting. Its basically a machine gun, with around 300 bullets when fully loaded.
Second Setting: A tranquilizer dart. Sinn always carries a couple extras on his belt, as you can only load 2 at a time.
Third Setting: Gas. Sinn's least favorite setting, he has a multitude of gas canisters ranging from stun gas to poison.
Fourth Setting: A small flamethrower.
Secondary: A Desert Eagle handgun.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Skills/Abilities]
[spoiler=Magic]
Sinn retains all his magic he learned when he worked with Keiz (I'll find those in a bit), and has learned more.
[b]Cleanse Air[/b]
Eradicates the air of anything toxic or dangerous. Used to clear the gas from his gun.
[b]Eagle Eyes[/b]
Ensures Sinn will not miss on his next shot.
[b]Morph[/b]
Sinn can morph into a tiger. (cloths do not morph with him). He retains his consciousness and identity, but is in complete control of the tiger body.(Think Animorphs)
[b]Demonic Aide[/b]
This can only be used while Quarr is within 20 feet of Sinn. Quarr transfers energy to Sinn enough to give the next action he takes a serious boost.
[b]Fade[/b]
Sinn will slowly fade into the background. Cannot be used in combat, but may be used if he is retreating. Once he is invisible, it lasts a little over an hour, unless Sinn terminates it.
[/spoiler]
[b]Concealment[/b]
As a result of living in a forest, Sinn has incredible skill at concealing himself noiselessly.[/spoiler]
[spoiler= Misc. Info]
Quarr, his demon friend, is always at Sinns side. Rather useless in melee, Quarr is basically a magical aide to Sinns excursions. Can use basic blast and shield magic, and has sharp claws and a pointy tail. He is extremely intelligent.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=One Year Catchup][i]One long year.[/i] Thought Sinn as he sat in a tree. [i]So much has happened. [/i]Keiz had been overthrown, not that he cared. Keiz didnt do jack to help his hometown. Hopefully, Alliaster would be slightly more compassionate. When Keiz was overthrown, Sinn told Alliaster that he didnt care who was on the throne. He said he would not intentionally help nor hinder him, and then proceeded to build his place in a far-off woods. He and his sister too their mother, but she was weak, and died within months. Sinn then had an idea. He decided to go back to his old assassination shenanigans. He searched the land, and anyone he found unworthy of life, he terminated. Some people found him, paid him to kill, and he killed. But he grew weary, and needed actual work. So one idea entered his head. [i]I must return to Alliaster.[/i][/spoiler]

Angel: A majority of the residents here are angel-like creatures. The rest are other winged creatures like fairies, pixies, bird-likes, etc.

Water: Most of the residents here reside under the water. They all can travel on land, assuming they have a water-breathing apparatus to use, but most prefer to stay underwater.

Beast: Beast-like creatures from all ranges of the animal kingdom resides here. From antelope people to zebra people.

Demon: Demons and other underworld-like creatures reside here. Most range from human-like bodies to humanoid shapes. Ones who bodies don't resemble human forms in some ways are rare.

Mystical: This nation is the most diverse of the all. Anything from robots to vampires choose to reside here, if none of the other nations suit to their tastes.

In general: All nations have various residences, of course, especially around the boundary lines. Its around the center of the nations where there are few people of species that don't fit under the nation's general descriptions.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Leandros]
Username: *~Dark~Magician~*
Character's name: Leandros
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Race: Panthera Leo-Sapien (Called Leo-Sapien for short)
[spoiler=Personality:]
The great and proud Leo-Sapien that is Leandros is indeed boastful of his vast strength and might, an extremely potent member of the Leo-Sapien race of creatures. Though their true origin is unknown, often some beings derogatively insult them by calling them crossbred Lion Humans, though most that do so never end up alive. The story of their creation is unsure, but the Pectouru Leonis Tribe believe that a divine entity whom the address as the Star Mother blessed them with both the power of the mighty lion and the intelligence and capability of a human. Leandros has a thirst for knowledge[color=#0000ff][size=3][sup]4[/sup][/size][/color] from a young age, and his father, Leandros Maximus[color=#0000ff][size=3][sup]1[/sup][/size][/color] took his knowledgeable son, and manipulated and stimulated his mental power to aid his chieftainship. He was raised into the Chief's family, and this is where some of his pride originates from. He also disapproved of the tribe's, under his father's rule, unjust treatment to women[color=#0000ff][sup][size=3]2[/size][/sup][/color]; he is often considered as the first male feminist of the tribe as he valued the Leo-Sapien's female partners as a blessing. This mainly rooted from his faith: the Goddess being a female and thus made him establish a link between the two. He's gentle, kind, and quite lovable when he's calm, relaxed and generally enjoying himself. However, upon aggression, he can switch to a violent, almost unstoppably brutal beast, allowing his anger to get the best of him. This anger roots from the male Leo-Sapien's large level of testosterone; despite this large aggressive nature expected from most Leo-Sapien males, he can control it with his extremely capable will power. In a calm state, Leandros can connect to emotional levels, but aggravated his head can be objectively active, very strategically, and often a severely dangerous weapon. From the family heritage, apparently the majority of Leandros' intensely deadly aggressive nature came from his mother, whereas his calmer side was his father's. Needless to say, this aggressive, valiant, and patient Chieftain is a natural born leader.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Biography:]
Leandros was born into the Chieftain, son of Chieftain father Leandros Maximus and Head Huntress mother Adwar. Due to the “calming effect “[color=#0000ff][sup][size=3]3[/size][/sup][/color] of the Leo-Sapiens, Adwar had immediately retire from her position, leaving it to her sister and Leandros' aunt. His mother was a much more aggressive Lioness5 than her husband, who was very patient with his role. Leandros Maximus had an arranged marriage, done by his father and Leandros' grandfather, for the unity of the Hunters and the Chieftainship, settling dispute between the two families. But as the loving couple saw their child's face, they decided one day, he shall stumble across love on his own accord, trusting his future in his young hands. The young cub was close to his mother at the younger years, and wasn't a burden on the parent's. He rarely cried, nor did he misbehave. Oddly, he was a perfect baby. Unlike the playful little cub, his parents were very protective over the tot, often scaring away anyone other than the other parent in fears that they would harm Leandros in some manner.

As he soon entered childhood, Leandros' father began to show him of the roles a chieftain had. And Leandros himself enjoyed it, the smiling civilians, all the happy faces his father had caused. But it was from this young age he already saw his father's flaws. As both his parents insisted, they both taught him of the faith that was of the Star Mother. And from this, and his nurturing mother, Leandros established the sanctity of the role of women, often regarding them as “blessings” of the Goddess. But his father's rule, unlike his aspirations, weren't what he'd expect. His father did tell him that he did rule a patriarchal tribe, but a minor one. He told his son, along with Adwar, of the other tribes outside their own. To this, Leandros was horrified, and couldn't believe how unjust the other tribes treated their women. And from this, Leandros decided his rule would never cause nor permit harm of any kind to a Lioness, nor a Lion, of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe.

The child maintained his father's lessons, but insisted on attending a public school. Needless to say, with his stature, he had no bullies whatsoever but rather was swamped by other Lions[color=#0000ff][sup][size=3]5[/size][/sup][/color] and Lionesses wanting to be the Chieftain’s son's friend, all but one Lioness who didn't seem to care. This Lioness was Arielle, a daughter of the Priests[color=#0000ff][sup][size=3]6[/size][/sup][/color] of the tribe, but a practitioner of sorcery. Unlike the others, she was deep into her study and thought. Two years in advance of her class, she was extremely intelligent and distant from the other children. But she was different, and in Leandros' eyes, special. He developed a crush for the Lioness at an early stage, but his typical childish shyness shunned him from her. Apart from that, he did well in his studies.

His adolescent years were tougher on the boy, with his crush on Arielle not loosening on his mind, he decided to finally sum up the courage and tell her. And she told him that she'd think about it. Not crushing his spirits, the two eventually dated and it bloomed into a romance. However, this may seem as a wonderful accomplishment. It's negative outcome? Leandros shirked his duties with his father to be with Arielle. Even though his parents understood, they both told him as the future Chieftain he would soon become, he needed to focus on his duties. Not only this, Leandros soon became involved in political warfare between tribes, and for the first time in his life was sent onto the battlefield as a soldier rather than an heir. Despite his excellent ability in combat, he never enjoyed it. And to top this all off, he ascended to the throne at age 17, his father passing away during the night from an assassination. The young chieftain, alongside his mother's aide, soon took control and their tribe became stronger.

And it was at age 19 when his mother told him that he would no longer be able to rely on her, leaving her soon, the Chieftain of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe, to rule as she travelled the vast blue yonder. Age 20, Leandros began his aspiration to rebuild the tribe for equality and justice, where no-one was superior, nor inferior, to another in regards to rights. And doing so he became known as Leandros of Equality, although those against his anti-patriarchal society named him Leandros the He-She Chief. But the Lion had not a second for these lesser issues. Two years in, he felt that he needed a partner for him. And he recalled upon his old flame Arielle, and when Leandros was a month into his 23rd year, the pair married and ruled over the tribe as partners.

Now, at age 27, four years since his marriage with Arielle, he is hoping to finally conceive with his wife and begin his prodigy. He hopes for a baby girl, so he can truly declare the reign of patriarchy in his tribe as obsolete forever.

[spoiler= Misc. Info:]
In this app, there are numbers listed on certain items. In here, you can see the relating article with a brief description to clarify it:
[color=#0000ff][b]1:[/b][/color] [i]“Maximus”[/i]/[i]”Maxima”[/i] is a title achieved to any male or female, depending on the gender of the offspring, who bears offspring, the title meaning [i]“Major”[/i] or [i]“Senior”[/i], and the child often bearing the father's name, except in the circumstance of a female chieftain, in which case the mother's name would be taken. If a second child of the same gender is born, that child would be named after the corresponding parent, followed by [i]Dua, Tria,[/i] etc.
[color=#0000ff][b]2:[/b][/color] With exception to the [i]“Pectouru Leonis”[/i] Tribe (meaning [i]“Lionheart”[/i]), almost virtually every single other Leo-Sapien governed tribe has been known as patriarchal, from lesser to extreme cases.
[b][color=#0000ff]3:[/color][/b] Leo-Sapiens have a much larger level of hormones than human beings; the males having more testosterone and the females having more estrogen. Female Leo-Sapiens also have higher levels of testosterone than most human women also, which gives them their aggressive nature. Oddly, both male and females seem to “calm” when they produce offspring. Thought to be a reduction of the testosterone, it is actually a repression of the hormone.
[color=#0000ff][b]4:[/b][/color] Despite their tribal mannerisms and rituals, the Leo-Sapiens are all naturally scientific, and though most are decided to be warriors, some are remained as scholars of nature.
[b][color=#0000ff]5:[/color][/b] Even though they are neither Lions nor Lionesses, the Leo-Sapiens of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe, and many others, prefer to be addressed as such for ease. Others, however, are likely to execute whoever calls them the “demeaning” name.
[color=#0000ff][b]6: [/b][/color]All members of the Clergy of the Star Mother's faith are permitted to have offspring and live normal Leo-Sapien lives, as otherwise they could not inform those of the public of guidance.

Well, completely ignoring any and all rule-checky things...[spoiler=Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the Western Spiral arm of the Galaxy...]Username: Supreme Gamesmaster Yddisac
Character's name: Arthracia "Thraci" Dent
Age: 22
Gender: F
Sexuality: Kinsey V
Race: Mage
[spoiler=Personality:]Thraci isn't a bad person, but she isn't an especially good one, either. She'd much rather be in a warm university library reading a book or three and studying up on magic than fighting over the throne and fate of the Demon Kingdom. That, of course, won't happen for a while. The main reason she opposes the demons is that they keep trying to kill her; she's really just getting swept along with everything. She's no great planner... or fighter, actually. She's sort of just there, being useless and trying to make sense of it all. Then again, what did you expect from a Dent?
Thraci is very down-to-earth and a slow, deliberate thinker. Her sense of humour is nothing special, though she has a very impressive deadpan when she has the cognition to employ it, and though she can think very well and receive insights that most couldn't, she needs a great deal of time and concentration to do so. Unfortunately, that down-to-earth nature, the same thing that makes her a very effective scientist, also makes her very ill-prepared to wage war against True Demons and try to save the world. I expect she'll spend most of her time either snarking at her teammates, if drama happens, or trying and failing to make sense of the world around her, when action happens.
In other words, she really is a lead-witted little bugger.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Biography:]Arthracia Dent (she goes by Thraci) is, like most people whose names start with "Arth" and end with "Dent," really, really boring*. Her life was relatively privileged*, spent in a reasonably wealthy but utterly unimportant suburb. She had a slightly above-average ability with magic and a slightly above-average wit, so she found her way to a relatively prestigious magical academy. It is at this point that she made her most significant discovery. While attempting to create a localized vacuum for an experiment, she was distracted by the presence of a navy blue tote bag she was sure she'd lost years prior. In her distraction, she accidentally created a horizontal tornado. The tornado decimated the wall of the university, but it dissipated quickly once Thraci stopped powering the spell. Without going too far into the field of metaphysics, I will simply say that magic has a tendency to stick to itself; even without a power source, a helical spell like the tornado should have lasted much longer (and, for that matter, done less damage). Dent barely managed to stay in school by developing a possible explanation for the strange behaviour of her spell. She's still researching the Dent effect, among other things.

Unfortunately*, as Thraci was about to commence her postgraduate studies, royal soldiers closed the university down. Thraci's parents didn't have the money to support her, let alone pay for graduate studies thanks to heavy taxes, gambling, and Mr. Urbaska Dent choosing the wrong night not to bring a towel. Thraci herself had a fair amount of money accrued by doing a great many odd jobs (most of which had something to do with either a library or a bookstore). Thus, Thraci was left to roam the land, searching for the money she'd need to pay for a proper* education. The university was never reopened; it was rather backwater, after all, and all the professors had retired and gone off to play cricket. So she was still trying and failing to find a place to learn when the town she was in at the moment was beseiged by True Demons and their armies. She'd have died if a spaceship hadn't fallen on the True Demon that was about to kill her. A strange* man came out of the spaceship, called Thraci a lead-witted little bugger, got back into the spaceship, and left.

And that's the roleplay begins*.

*Your mileage may vary.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Appearance:]Thraci is a girl. This fact rarely needs clarification -- she looks plenty feminine -- but I thought I'd better get that out of the way before I started. She's female in both gender and sex, and there is very little ambiguity about that. She is also a reasonably pure-blooded mage, not that one can tell the difference between a mage and a human anyway. Thus, she has things like hair (in this case, black, long, wavy, and almost never tied), eyes (two, both a very boring shade of grey), non-furred skin (a sort of unsaturated yellow-pink), arms (two), legs (two), feet (two, rather small), and a face (small, neither round nor thin). She also has round ears on either side of her head which, while terribly insensitive in the grand scheme of things, are sharper than those of most [i]homo sapiens[/i].

Thraci is, in fact, an ordained sorceress of the first degree, so she has the requisite robes to match her profession. They're black, mostly, but there are also red elements and gold highlights. They have sleeves (red), cover her body, and fit her rather nicely. They leave room for her legs to run and for her hands (of which she has two, both of which are small with long, thin fingers adept at manipulating instruments and turning pages) to operate. She even has a fancy magical necklace and wand to go with her sorceress getup. The wand is very long, like a cabaret cane, and it's said that she'd be able to dance very nicely with it if she ever tried. Her pendant glows white when she uses magic and is shaped like the moon. Oddly enough, because of the abuse it's undergone over the years, it looks less like the moon of Thrae than the moon of a big rocky planet in the Milky Way galaxy.

Ordinarily, Thraci wouldn't go around in her sorceress's garb, but since all manner of things seem to want to kill her and everyone around her these days, she figures it's best to keep it on most of the time. In other words, I don't have to describe any other outfits right now. Convenient, no?[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Weapons:]Primary: She has some training with one-handed swords and daggers thanks to an incident involving one Cartato E. Vellison and a strip club. She's nowhere near military proficiency, however, and she'd only be able to accomplish anything with a lucky shot.
Secondary (optional): She's pretty good at smacking people upside the head with books. Thanks to years of library work, she can wield the single-volume version of [i]The King of the Circular Finger Jewelry[/i] dextrously with one hand.
Misc (optional): She can create weapons using Iron Synthesis. That doesn't mean she can use them. She is a civilian, after all.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Skills/Abilities:]Arthracia is actually a typical student of magic -- in particular, magical research. Her spells, therefore, are not necessarily combat oriented. She does, however, know some defencive spells:
>Flare: The most basic of offencive spells; it uses the cohesive properties of magic to create and throw a sphere of magical fire. Mages can play a form of catch with Flares.
>Mega Flare: A form of Flare created by Arthracia. It exploits the Dent effect to create a Flare much bigger than would normally be possible. The sphere shrinks as it travels; it dissipates roughly ten metres ahead of where it was fired. If it hits something before then, it explodes. Arthracia recoups some of the energy from this spell, so the main use of it is to throw around several at once and confuse the enemy.
>Royal Flare: A really freaking huge Flare. It covers the whole room, and it isn't thrown, but instead retracted. Unless you're Patchouli Knowledge and in good health, which is... unlikely, you need some sort of talisman to make up the titanic initial cost. The mage actually recalls the flare at the end of the spell, recouping some of the cost and making the spell possible for mortals. If the caster is hit midway through and unable to recall the spell, they're as good as dead, but thankfully, it's almost impossible to get hit while surrounded by a giant fireball.
>Wipe Temperature: Uses her temperature control to drastically lower the temperature of the water surrounding an enemy, effectively freezing them solid. The nature of the spell makes it fairly obvious, however; the target has about a second to get out of the way. Of course, if they're distracted... well, not much they can do about that.
>Duct Typhoon: A horizontal, localized tornado hits the enemy. Arthracia created this spell by accident when she was trying to create a localized vacuum for research purposes. She took out the wall and was nearly expelled from the university she was then studying at. She wrote her undergraduate thesis on the properties of magic revealed by the spell; she's still testing her "Dent effect," which also guides her unique (except for that one raven from Gensokyo) spell, Mega Flare.
>Duct Downdraft: Duct Typhoon PLUS FIRE!
>Duct Waterspout: Duct Typhoon PLUS WATER!
>Stonewall: Raises the earth around her. A ridiculously basic spell that Thraci can perform very, very quickly, to launch, crush (backwards), or impale her enemies if they get too close.
>Iron Synthesis: She can use magic to materialize iron objects using extraplanetary iron. Very useful for times when she's locked out of a room, for example, or when a nearby ally needs a weapon. Not very useful in combat, since Thraci doesn't know how to use them.

She also has a host of other non-combative spells, including, but not limited to, a series of elemental wards, some physical barriers, far too many search spells, and some environmental manipulation magic for experimentation. Her magical power level is, however, only slightly above average.[/spoiler]
[spoiler= Misc. Info:]Some of the metaphysics associated with the Dent effect, and why Thraci's spells work at all, for those geeky enough to care:
>[b]Subspace[/b] is the source of all magical power. The composition of subspace is hotly contested by modern magical researchers. Some say that it consists of [b]leylines[/b], thin conduits overlaid over Thrae's physical geography like a massive, spherical spiderweb. Modern researchers are more likely to say that it's a sort of magical cloud hanging over Thrae. Either way, magic is almost impossible to use over 9000 kilometres above sea level. Subspace is undetectable most of the time; it's a sort of parallel dimension that's only detectable at all when magic is used. Then, local subspace tends to "light up." Combat mages usually try to use as little mana as possible so as to make their subspace imprints less readable.
>On that note, mana is the intangible force that guides all magic. Mana is used to affect natural phenomena as the spellcaster desires.
>Mana is cohesive; i.e., mana tends to attract mana. The cohesiveness of mana is critical to magical studies. It's very difficult, for example, to create a magical beam with a great deal of force, since the mana will lag behind. Similarly, a large clump of mana, like a primitive fireball spell, moves slowly and doesn't hit with much force. The usual solution is to make the mana spin. Spinning mana has less range than solitary mana, but it hits with much more power, since the mana is sticking together anyway. Until recently, it was thought that the reason spinning mana had less range was because of the energy needed to make the mana spin, but...
>...the Dent effect says otherwise. According to Dent and her fellow researchers, concentrated, rapidly moving mana tends to dissipate back into subspace without a mana supply (i.e. continued casting by a sorcerer). Dent was still working on testing it and developing an equation to describe how it might work when the university was closed. She still doesn't know how or if it works, but hey, most sorcerers don't even know it might exist.

Also, for those who don't know, the Kinsey scale is a scale from zero to six describing a person's sexual orientation at any given time. Higher scores are, well, gayer. Three is pure bisexuality, zero is pure heterosexuality, and six is pure homosexuality, but those numbers are surprisingly rare. One (such as myself IRL) and five (such as Thraci) are "pretty much straight" and "pretty much gay" respectively; twos and fours might identify as bisexuals that just so happen to prefer one gender, or they might just be confused. Depends on the person. Note that a Kinsey rating can and does change over a person's lifetime, and might even change, for example, over the course of a single roleplay.[/spoiler][/spoiler]

[Elƒie]

She's done!

[spoiler=Arielle]
Username: *~Dark~Magician~*
Character's name: Arielle
Age: 25
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Race: Panthera Leo-Sapien (Called Leo-Sapien for short)
[spoiler=Personality:]
This induvidual of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe doesn't boast the natural pride of a normal Leo-Sapien. Arielle is much more calmer, relaxed, and gentle natured. A strong believer in the Star Mother, being the daughter of the Priests, she took a different calling, a different vocation to priesthood and left her role in the clergy. Rather, she took interest in magic, in particular the practical uses of the energy. She does have a scientific side to her, always willing to learn, but she will defend her beliefs strongly. She doesn't like being told she's believing in the wrong Goddess, in fact she hates it. She doesn't like prejudiced people in the slightest manner, but will be polite to them regardless. Arielle is a person who's patience, though large, can be pushed, and doing so will put this Lioness in a very very bad mood. Like al Leo-Sapiens, she has an aggresive nature too, though rarely seen. But regardless it is there. Most of the time she is gentle and playful, toying around with her husband and very fond of little children. She shows the early stages of motherhood in a Leo-Sapien even though she is currently not pregnant, although many believe that she was blessed with this early stage because of her desire to conceive and bear the future heir of Leandros' tribe. Arielle can, and will, be protective of young allies, often using her magic to shield them rather than herself. She shows selflessness, and is an extremelly good thinker unlike Leandros at times.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Biography:]
Arielle was raised in a family of priests, honouring the Star Mother with her birth they claimed as she was born under a shooting sar, which was claimed to be the Star Mother's call to duty. And so because of this Arielle was forbidden to become a priestess like her mother, Arielle Maxima, as her destiny laid elsewhere as someone of severe significance. Though she learned of her faith, she was not permitted to partake in the festivals and rituals her sisters, Arielle Dua and Arielle Tria, would do. And also unlike her sisters, she was not given an arranged marriage as her parents believed it would affect her destiny as a child to affect the future for the better. She was a very intelligent baby, and learnt exceedingly well. Her father, Danil, thought that though priesthod would disturb her future, the art of magic would allow her to put her amazing intellect to use.

And so from a young age she was learning with her father to harness her magical energy imbued within her body. His father, though a priest of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe, was once a shaman of the tribe and excelled in both mastering the secrets of the Sourustones and mastery of the Spell "Madante" which to normal shamans, mages, wizards, magicians and sages would send them mentally insane, but Danil had managed to practise his magical energy recuperation skill to an extent that he would be safe from the spell's negative and catastrophic side effect. And at age 5, Arielle had mastered the spell, which portrayed her intelligence as genius for such a young child.

And as the young Lioness enter school, two years younger than all the other cubs. She never noticed Leandros when he first met her, she was too focussed into her work, sorcery and magic. But the reason she didn't crowd to him because she didn't see him as Leandros, son of Leandros Maximus, the Chieftain of the Tribe, but simply as another boy. That was part of her charm to Leandros, she didn't like to prejudge people but rather talk to them, get to know them before any opinion would be formed. And in higher education, she did eventually notice the heir, and when she told him "I'd have to think about it" she was merely playing hard to get. She wasn't as well endowed as other Leo-Sapien Lionesses, so she knew Leandros hadn't fell for her simply for her looks, and this sparked her attraction to him.

She didn't like Leandros shirking his duties. Though she enjoyed spending time with him, she knew that if he were to be the Chieftain he would have to focus, and she was okay with that. The only problem was Leandros was too nice for his own good. And soon after his father passed away, she insisted that they stopped seeing eachother, he needed time to recover and she knew that he wouldn't get over it if she was their distracting him. Arielle wanted Leandros to face it head on, and he did as he ascended to Cheiftainship with a roar, his mother aiding him at first, but he maintained his impressive rule, especially with the abolishment of the patriarchy of the Tribe.

Two years, they began to see eachother again, their passion reignited, and they eventually married as she became the wife of the Chieftain of the Pectouru Leonis Tribe, or for short the Muchaar. Unsure of the meaning of this phrase, due to it coming from extremelly early and incomprehensable language, she didn't care. They ruled the pride with honour, dignity, and she did share a little of her husband's pride, insisiting that it wasn't her own as she wasn't "like that".

[/spoiler]
[/spoiler]
[spoiler= Misc. Info:]
Arielle's call of duty refers to the belief of the Star Mother. According to the belief, the Star Mother had fallen from the Heavens of which she ruled from. And shooting stars were belived to be her children, though they meant nothing unless a child was born underneath one. This meant that any child born under a shooting star was seen as special, one who would free the Star Mother from her Threally binds and set her free into the heavens above.[/spoiler]

EDIT: Also, erm, Aisu, you mind adding the [img] tag to Leandros' image?

[Elƒie]

[spoiler=is this:][img]http://www.iaza.com/work/111001C/iaza16059451104600.png[/img][/spoiler]

[Grunt Issun]

I'm confused, why does no one have Nationality in their apps?

And Kyngs appearance spoilers don't list Weight, Height, Body Build, Eye Color, or anything like that.

[Ghoulish]

What I don't get about the "if you read the rules do this" is that the point of it is to have everyone to read the rules.... So if you know he read the rules why does it matter if there's a word wrong? Not joining just something i've always been curious about.

[Elƒie]

Kyng: That link ya had was broken, so I had to get the picture from the PM discussion.

Isuun: O_o Meh.. I'ma just take nationality out.. Screw it. xD

[Grunt Issun]

[color=#FFFFFF]Of course you're just going to, Of course you are >__>[/color]
Well anyway, my guy is coming along at an okay pace.

[Elƒie]

Holy: Why you nyu joining? D: Lol. Anyways, I have that "If ya read the rules" thing going cause the line limit for appearance is different than personality and bio. Also, I'ma wait to add SG app in cause he tried to search for the subtitle, not read for it..

[Kyng's Old Account]

Issun, what are you talking about? I'm using pics, never listed them, so you've got me confused there. Enlighten me please on what you see clearly, which I misty eyed.
