[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Consider this an app in progress, not sure if it has to be mideval europe or can Asia be involved?[/font]

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Name: Tokugawa [/size][/color][size=3]Takechiyo[/size][/font]

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Date of Birth: 1616[/size][/color]

[color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Age: 40[/size][/color]

[color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Gender: Male[/size][/color]

[color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Era: Medieval[/size][/color]

[color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Appearance: Takechiyo is abnormally tall considering his lineage, just reaching 7 feet tall, and weighing in at 200 pounds, 265 including the Shogun's extensive armor.[/size][/color][/font]
[color=#5A5A5A][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]Said armor was crafted by family blacksmiths, and blessed at 4 seperate Shinto temples by 6 different holy priests. The armor has 5 main components: the do (chest), kabuto (helmet), kote (arms), sune-ate (shins), and hai-date (thighs). The Shogun's do has a waidate split into two parts: a seperate defense for the right and a plate for the trunk of the wearer. The trunk plate has the Tokugawa crest in the middle. Both are made from a combination of iron plates and lamella (plates and scale armor sewn together) The Kabuto has protruding rivets, giving the appearance of a star, and is constructed with iron plates arranged vertically, with two demonic horns on the top, to intimidate enemies. The kote uses iron and lamella arranged in both vertical and horizontal patterns, less iron but more lamella to allow easier swinging of weapons. The sune-ate and hai-date are both comprised of multiple leather plates under a series of slightly larger iron plates. Few have seen him outside the armor, even within the family, but his teachers know that he is well built and has Iyeyasu's facial structure and deep black hair, a sign of good fortune to the family. [/size][/font][/color]

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Personality: As Shogun, Takechiyo can not make it a habit of being seen as soft or weak. He is cold, calculating, and has a deep sense of honor instilled in him through years of following the bushido code. However he has a soft chink in his armor for his personal contigent of troops, all 165,000 of them. He often has drinks with them, tells tall tales of young hot blooded women, talks of duels past, spreads the loot from raided camps, and sleeps in the same type of tent they do. Around strangers his coldness comes into play, ever wary of an assasination attempt. He is quite wise beyond his 40 years of life, extensively educated in philosophy as a child. Also is particularly black and white about things, and holds no mercy for anyone that isn't willing to follow under his banner. However when the time calls for it he can be quite agreeable and even someone pleasant around those that aren't his warriors, how else would he have the admiration (and in some cases adoration) of every damiyo in Japan? Despite his loathing of the Soul Edge and his mission to purify it, as a man and a samurai he can't help but wonder what he could do with a sword of such power. [/size][/color]

[color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Biography: Tokugawa Takechiyo was born into great wealth, he had everything one could possibly want: toys as an infant, weapons and training as a child, women as a young man, and power as a commander who became Shogun at the age of 38. His childhood was what some could call lonely, his days spent with his teachers of bushido, history, swordsmanship, philosophy, and politics. His nights were spent recovering from his welts and cuts while simutaneously going through mock battles with his father, learning military tactics and army formations, as well as the intagibles that make an army great. His teen years were spent mingling with the elite of japan, making friends, concubines, and mostly enemies out of them. His skills were put to the test as he was challenged to duels of honor by the father's of many a young maiden several times a week, much to his father's amusement. His expeirince with the things he learned through books and instructions (and welts and cuts) skyrocketed his overall abilities. Soon enough as a young adult he became a samurai under Damiyo Tokugawa Kazekuri, his favorite uncle. He fought in several hundred battles over the years getting promotions swiftly, even without taking into consideration who his family is. However his honor demanded that he earn his promotions, and earn them he did. Eventually reaching the rank of commander and the age of 30, everyone knew of his prowess, epecially when he entered the fray. His many kills brought honor to his nation and his family, enough so that 8 years later he became the next Shogun. The ceremony was glorious, supplemented by the several shinobi that tried to poison, trap, and decapitate him. Instead of killing them as is customary, he enlisted them into his army after gaining their loyalty with a simple speech, the first Shogun to publically enlist shinobi. While met with ire by his father, secretly he approved of it greatly. Recently tales of the horror known as Soul Edge spread far and wide, when he sought out Kazekuri for a drink to commemerate another victory one night, his uncle was found as a malfested, tainted by the shard in his chest. Kazekuri was quickly killed and given a warrior's funeral, with Takechiyo swearing vengance on the cursed sword and any who fall under its powers, while at the same time wondering if it can be purified and even possibly controlled. Before setting out he had his and his armies weapons and armor blessed by holy Shinto priests, hopes of getting an edge over the Soul Edge. [/size][/color]

[color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Weapon(s): Takechiyo had holy weapons personally blessed by Shinto priests to ward off the evils of the infamous Soul Edge. They focus on extending his already long reach and are as follows:[/size][/color][/font]


[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Holy Fang: Nodachi with a 33 inch long blade with a simple circular guard, green tsuba, and a white scabbard.[/size][/color][/font]

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Heaven's Reach: a 6 foot long and 3 cm thick Bo staff with steel tips. The wood is made from the strongest white oak in Japan.[/size][/color][/font]

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Iyeyasu: Wakizashi of the Tokugawa family, first forged by the grandson of Iyeyasu in his grandfather's honor, was passed down each generation and reforged every time. Has a simple square guard and red tsuba and scabbard. Is 12 inches long as is meant for indoor and narrow enviorments where size is a disadvantage. [/size][/color][/font]

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Skills and Abilities: Trained in the way of the Samurai since birth, he was able to defeat his teachers: 3 Tokugawa samurai in their primes, at once at the age of 18, from then till the age of 32 he trained in not only advanced swordsmanship and martial arts, but also leadership by the previous Shogun and various commanders. He is one of the most skilled samurai in the Tokugawa's history, as well as a charismatic leader, even captured soldiers from enemy nations fight and die under his banner with gusto. However much to the chargin of the previous Shogun, Takechiyo uses a combination of tactics by Takeda Shingen and Toyotomi Hideyoshi, focusing on ambush and surprise tactics along with various companies of soldiers subdivided by task, to supplement his calvalry forces. He also favors pressruing parts of the enemy line while keeping forces fresh until he could launch a massive assault to break enemy lines. His troops are highly coordinated and well trained, able to deploy and change formation in a short amount of time. [/size][/color][/font]

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][color=#5A5A5A][size=3]Who will you be travelling with: his personal contingent of 165,000 troops. consists of standard infantry, samurai, ashigaru pikemen, armed calvary, and even shinobi he converted from enemy factions. Everyone is currently on a fleet made up of 1000 ships. [/size][/color]

[color=#5A5A5A][size=3]RP Paragraph: "Oh you should have seen her; who would have thought the innocent, shy Mika-chan would be so eager to do such things in every room of the castle? I didn't have the energy after the first 4 rooms, by the first 6 i was desperate. Yet here she was practically demanding more!" came the bold tale followed by the clinking of cups and hearty guffaws of laughter and merriment. Shogun Takechiyo was finishing up the tale of his time with the lusty Mika-chan in between sips of plum wine; enough for a pleasant buzz, but not enough that he would be hindered in any way, he was their leader after all and had to set an example. "The next morning i wake up in the middle of the street with her father pointing a sword at my face demanding a duel for his daughter's honor! I won out of sheer luck, I emptied the contents of my stomach on his face when he was readying a strike!" The soldiers listening could not help but slam the table and jump in laughter, no one knew the validity of his tales, but they all appreciated them nonetheless with all the depressing stories of the cursed Soul Edge spreading around Japan. The fact that they were to hunt any and all servants of the sword did not help matters for morale, but their Shogun knew exactly how to lift spirits, he told this exact tale to every single ship in his fleet so none would feel left out. So far it has been a year or so they have been at sea, with many malfested slayed in the name of honor and vengance for the death of Tokugawa Kazekuri. When the story finished, Takechiyo stood up and put on his "Shogun" face, which caused everyone to stand at attention. "We resume our training at sunrise. I expect everyone be ready, we may have killed the malfested in Japan and the surrounding islands, but they are a threat far and wide, our honor demands that their blood be spilled, we must not become stagnant in our abilities." "Hai Tokugawa-Sama!" was the resounding response and with that each soldier saluted and bowed before returning to their bunks for the night. [/size][/color][/font]

Name: Fritz Elrteinsten (A.K.A Licht)

Date of Birth: 1624

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Era: Medieval

Appearance: Fritz is medium height - 6'5 feet tall- man with a relatively well-built body. He has messy silvery-blond hair (Looks a lot like my profile picture) that is often remarked by the people he met. He has a small horizontal scar running through his nose. His normal clothing of choice is a white robe and white pants, with silver boots and a silver gauntlet on his right arm. The boots and gauntlet reflect light much like his weapon "Blitz", earning him the nickname "Licht" during his days at the military. His most identical feature, however, is the the cape he wears. The white cape with gray insides he wear is tailored by Prussia's very best tailor specially for him. The cape is split into three at the end (In a similar fashion to Lars Alexanderson's cape from Tekken 6) and sports the national flag of Prussia. The edges of the cape is decorated by diamonds cut in the shape of buttons.

Personality: Fritz is a hot-blooded and energetic young man. He has abandoned the code of chivalry and instead lives based on his own principles which includes; Helping those in need, take as little as necessary and always give as much as possible, and believing only in your own belief. He is a kind man that helps the weak and punishes the evil, but he also has a bad tantrum whenever somebody mentions his past. He acts like a good-mannered gentleman when in cities, but reverts back to his loud, rude and overall bad-mannered Fritz whenever he's out of a city.
Due to his young age, Fritz can be considered naive and often acts before thinking about it. He may also not be the brightest man you will ever encounter, but he's not in any way stupid. As a result of his murky past, Fritz now lives as a lone wolf. He prefers to avoid interaction as much as possible in order to keep people from knowing who he truly is, the "dead" war genius Fritz Elrteinstein.


Biography: Fritz was born to a war-loving family in Prussia. His father and most of his uncles have already attained a rank of general or higher in the military. Naturally, his father enrolled him to the central military academy at Konigsberg. At the academy, Fritz displayed outstanding physical and mental prowess. He easily mastered the pike, sword and bow at the young age of 13. However, he also showed numerous disciplinary issues, such as skipping morning assembly or entering the weapons room without permission. Nevertheless, Fritz' eventually worked his rank up in the army. He also became the youngest ever sergeant at the meager age of 18. His charismatic personality and skill on the battlefield made him respected by both his superiors and inferiors. Despite having -basically- anything a man could ever desire in this world, Fritz has a wide gaping hole in his heart. He felt that his life has always been "easy mode". He never actually worked hard for anything he ever achieved. The only reason he was accepted at the academy was because of his Father's high position at the military. The reason he became sergeant at such a young age is only because of his talent, and he never actually feels like fighting an actual war. At the moment, Fritz can only suppress his one true goal at life, to fight somebody whom he actually has to fight with all his strength. When he was 22, he was finally promoted to general. His parents couldn't be any happier during that day. A year later, the army was disrupted by a rumor that the newly-appointed General Fritz has gone missing. An extensive search was eventually conducted by the military in order to locate Fritz' whereabouts. However, no matter where they searched, they never found a single clue that leads to Fritz. He was then declared "Dead" by the military. The news of his "death" soon reached Fritz himself, who has been living in the woods in order to find worthy opponent. On the 27th of August 1645, 3 days after he was declared dead, Fritz was given a proper hero's burial attended by everybody in his village and his platoon. Except of course, he wasn't actually dead. Unable to return to his village or country anymore, he left Prussia and wanders across Europe to complete his goal. He also works as a mercenary, with a reputation of being able to complete any task without fail. He is known simply as "Licht" by the people that have hired him. Despite this, he still wears his signature cape as a tribute to his homeland.

Weapon(s):

Blitz: A 365 cm long pike with a cross-shaped white blade. However, because the grip is made out of special material, it weighs astoundingly light for it's size. The blade itself is polished in such a way that it easily reflects sunlight in all directions.

Raubvogel: A broadsword with an unusual handle. The handle is designed to resemble an eagle's wing, and is made out of silver. The sword itself has the words "Licht ist mein seele" engraved on it. The sword has a special ability that activates when Fritz is fighting an opponent as strong as him or stronger; by placing both of his weapons in a cross-like manner, Raubvogel's engravings glow gold and Fritz' body glows white. This is known as Fritz' "Maximum Overdrive" form. Fritz' strength and speed is greatly increased in this form, but he can only stay like that for 5 minutes or less.

He also carries several knives with him.

Skills and Abilities: Amazing reflex, advanced survival skills and sensitive smell.

Who will you be travelling with: Alone, as of now.

RP Paragraph:

The full moon shines over the forest. The cries of the wildlife and the leaves whistling could easily be heard in such a clear night. A small campfire can be seen near the edge of the forest. Sitting near the campfire is a young man clad in white clothing. Fritz reached for the bottle of beer he bought earlier in the village. After drinking half the bottle, Fritz looked up to the moon and smirked. [color=#A9A9A9][b]"If this keeps up, i may end up fighting the moon and the sun soon enough!" [/b][/color][color=#000000]Although that was clearly just a drunk man's chatter, the way Fritz delivered his line made it sound very convincing. [/color]Fritz then heard a small rustling noise in the bushes. He then concentrate his sights on the bushes, determined to catch anything that comes out of it. With his trusty pike "Blitz" pointed sharp at the bushes, an animal is bound to be killed this night. And then, in less than 2 seconds, a deer came out of the bushes only to be stabbed by Fritz. [color=#000000]He then walked towards the deer and took out "Blitz" which was stuck in the deer's body. After making sure that the deer is dead, Fritz then skinned the deer and made a bunch of jerky out of the deer's meat. Despite the meat's horrible taste, Fritz ate at least half of the deer jerky. He packed the remaining jerky to his bag and lied down on the "bed" which is just a pile of dried leaves. [/color][color=#A9A9A9][i]"[b]How many days has it been since i left Prussia, huh? I don't think[/b][/i][/color] [b][i][color=#A9A9A9]it could be counted by days anymore. I know I've just been a dead man for a year, but it feels like a long time ago!" [/color][/i][/b][color=#000000]That was Fritz' last thought before he went to sleep.[/color]


Mostly done. Just need to complete RP paragraph.
