The Legend of the Guardians

[Jecht]

This is an RP back from the days of FFBlitz, a site I used to own and manage. This RP was one of the most successful RP's I had ever seen, especially at that time. The original RP started a point but had an explanation of some historic events that took place. Everything will be set up as exact as possible to the way I had it a few years back. This RP isn't one of those RP's where you just mindlessly post and hope for it to shape up. You have to really read the story outline and read each post, which is why this RP will not start until we have all of the vital characters registered. We tried starting the RP when we only had half the vital members needed and it didn't turn out as good as it could've been if we had waited. Please read carefully and hopefully this RP will be as successful as the original.

Story Outline:
Basically this story will include 10, two of the guardians are among the original line, then the rest are all guardian decendants. People who are unaware of their hidden powers and will discover them as the story progresses. The ten guardians are scattered in different areas of the world, the demons will cause havoc which will eventually bring the guardians together. When the Guardian of Shadow and the Holy Guardian meet, the truth will be revealed to the other members about their decendance to the line of Guardians. A fight will break out which will be started by the Guardian of Shadow and the Holy Guardian. At this point, the real story will begin.

A twist will take place, the true intentions of the Guardian of Shadow will become more clear. It will be the guardian decendants mission to take out the ever growing army of demons as well as to find the hidden city of Terrok Nor to discover the scripts of the planets history as well as the history of the guardians.

There will be a moment of time travel which will make the story a little more understandable, as well as to shape up the story and better explain events that have taken place as well as events that are about to take place and a little twist of future events. You will know that once this RP is done, which might be sometime, but there's a surprise in store for those of you who like this RP and don't want to see it coming to an end .

I would also like to make a quick point clear, with there being time travel in this RP, there will be an alternate univese which I will narate and maintain in the RP so it doesn't get confusing. The RP takes place on Gaia, but we will also be visiting Terra, an alternate/parallel universe to Gaia, the primary story that we will be playing out will have various change in events, so in Gaia, one vital character could be alive while in the other world the other one could be dead, simply because the outcome of a battle or something didn't work out the same.

I'll explain it more as we progress, it won't take place till later in the RP.

[Shadowfaith]

Character Name: Aisha

Character Age: Eighteen

Guardian Type: Fire

Descritpion: Aisha has a fair body build, toned but not overly so from activities she participates in. her hair is a pitch black colour and she seems to have a natural streak of white running through its middle. Her eyes are a forest green, emerald colour that has random specks of hazel scattered around the iris. Her skin is rather pale, but not so much as is looks unnatural, but her dark hair stands in contrast against the white skin. A black tattoo runs from her stomach up the side of her left cheeks to curl itself around her left eye, it looks to be a sort of tribal tattoo, but its origins are even unknown to Kali. Accessories include a small silver pendant that wraps itself snugly around her pale neck and a matching bracelet taking residence on her left wrist.

Personality: Aisha has a sort of unnatural spark to her character that makes her more energetic than your average human. She’s always on the go and becomes restless if forced to sit and do nothing. But this energetic personality also comes at a price. Aisha gets distracted easily and is known for have a very short attention span, which can be a danger to her when in battle or even when she’s listening to a briefing or some important information. She’s a dreamer and will go through all lengths to achieve her goal.

Weapon(s): Her primary weapon is a double bladed sword that she keeps laced to her back with a belt. Its middle is covered in a black leather material for the grip and its blades are light, sleek but deadly at the same time. A strange carving, almost identical to the tattoo she has travelling from her stomach is embedded in its blades.

Her secondary weapons are two small daggers. It seems Aisha has a liking for things that come in twos.

Abilities: Aisha depends on her speed more than anything. Having not being very strong in the power department, she relies on her agility to dodge and attack swiftly. Her primary weapon may be a sword, but her real power lies with her element, she will use such a ting to attack her enemies from a distance before moving in with her physical skills.

Strengths: Aisha doesn’t think any battle is too big for her. But of course this can be both a weakness and a strength. She the flexibility of a cat and the striking senses of a snake, which makes her a harder person to lay your hands on.

Weakiness: Aisha doesn’t do well in cold environments. Having being of a fire element, the cold or damp weather simply doesn’t do it for her. This also means that she unfortunately has a fear of water.

Background Information: Will edit.

For the background information, what type of history are you looking for?

However this was a lie the band of adventurers were infact a group planning to take over the town and use the people as slaves. When the truth was revealed many opposed the band. Tethar's father Joachim was the one who lead the resistance as a result the band killed him without hesitation.

Tethar saw this happen and grew angry so angry at what they had done to is father. However that was not the end, upon seeing her dead husband Tethar's mother Aystal ran out and in a fit of rage attacked a swordsman from the Band. He cut her down without even a word. This was too much. As his anger became too great a mysterious power eminated from Tethar. It destroyed everything the town the farms around it and every single person there. The band the townsfolk all were killed. Tethar survived with only a scar running down his back.

This lead Tethar to strive for ultimate power so he could protect those he cares about. He choose the path of magic so he could learn more about the mysterious power that lays within him.

 

[Jecht]

Background information such as where your character is from, what his/her lifestyle has been like growing up from childhood to current age. Your character must be started out and played with absolutely no knowledge of his/her role as a guardian decendant. Everyone will be regular characters until I see how everyone shapes their character in "In Character" RP mode. Once everyone has become fairly active and I see things are shaping up I will narate it so that you will become aware and play your role leading to the knowledge of being a guardian decendant.

So basically you could use this example or something like it

Background Information:
Aisha grew up in a small town called "Name your hometown" she lives in a small house with her "What ever you want to put here" can be family or w/e. Towards her mid to late teens she began "Working, going on adventures, etc..."

Basically describe your character living a normal life, a regular job, etc...

I hope that helps, and thanks for joining btw.

His hair is a dark brown that is mid length and messy, dark blue eyes, no scars, and boyish good looks. He usually wears long white and brown robes and other baggy clothing, and underneath is a skin tight black and blue suit that has some sort of armored plating, but very thin plating though kind of like a water proof chain mail that allows fast movement.

Weapon(s): A swallow blade that breaks in half called the Tempest Wave. (A swallow is like pole with long curved blades at the end. Shaped kind of like a boat oar. Together it stands 8 feet then breaks into to two 4 foot separate blades. It is made from a light but strong metal known as Mythril. Also does have hand grips near the centers)

Abilities: He can control water to an extent as it stresses out his body and mind eventually, and makes him fatigue. He can also change the direction of water to a certain degree. He also has the ability to breathe under water for long periods of time. All these abilities progress as he gets older and strengthens them.

Strengths: Avan is a good fighter at all means, He is social, tries to get along with everyone, is a very good swimmer some even call him a fish more than a human, very swift and agile, he is attractive to most woman, is mature about most things, and is very reliable.

Weaknesses: He is afraid of loneliness and being outcast, he tends to find himself flirting with women too much at times, looses his temper when his friends are harmed, he is afraid to get too close too someone in fear of letting them down, and sometimes he gets too cocky.

Background Information: His parents left him in a fishing village on his own when he was young still just a baby. When the old village chief found him he took Talus in and cared for him as a son. Growing up near the ocean Talus learned much about sea life and how to fish. He spent most of his free time helping others and swimming in the ocean. As he got older he began to grow the strange ability to manipulate water and redirect its path. He hid his powers from others in fear they may think he was a horrible freak of nature, but it all changed when he turned twelve. He was on a usual fishing trip with the other men in the village, but the waves had been violent that day. It began to get worse and worse until the waves almost tipped the boat over if Talus had not calmed the sea. Upon seeing this most cheered and thanked the boy. The village was thankful for the boy and brought him aboard the fish boats all the time to insure safe passage.

He had never really set foot out of the ocean and the village. Until one day the village Chief told him to go to a blacksmith outwards of the village and pick up a few things for him. Unknown to the boy the Chief had been good friends with the Blacksmith sending him all the free fish he wanted and he had asked his friend if he would be willing to make him armor and a weapon, so that he may venture outside to the real world since the boy was now fifteen. Talus did as asked and trekked to the Blacksmiths. When he arrived an old man with a billowing gray beard welcomed him in and presented him with the sleek skin tight waterproof armor, and the Swallow. Talus was thankful for the surprise. After talking to the old man Talus made his long trek back, and in bitter irony found his village completely demolished by what must have been a tidal wave. No one was left alive it was as though the fates had played a cruel joke on him, and so he set forth to journey the world in search of a reason.

Talus is now seventeen and searching still. His abilities are stronger and his journey is guided by destiny. He will find his reason someday. He will find the meaning to everything someday. And maybe that someday will never come, but you must try to find out. His story has only just begun.

His body is hardened and toned, yet flexible, strong yet scrawny. Many a people (or at least around the places he's been) feel frightened or intimidated by his brown skin, scars, and oddly shaped tatoos (one on his back, one for the back of both of his hands, and a cross shaped one for his chest) . He usually wears a green bandana wrapped over his head, a white undershirt, a pair of baggy dark green trouser pants, a small knapsack (unless he's fighting), and a red sheathe strapped horizontally across his back to allow for extra movement.

As for his personality well... Nova is that enigmatic, yet energetic wanderer. Slightly naive, slightly sarcastic (and tongue in cheek) , and all accepting.He's the type of person that's up for just about anything if the mood strikes him.

Weapon(s): He wields primarily, a single blade (shaped like a chinese Dao) with a pure white blade, and an exquisitely ornate carving of a dragon being slain in what looks like some sort of white ivory.

Secondarily, he wields a dirk and a hunting knife, made out of plain tempered steel.

Abilities: Ethereal blast (a blast of white-hot ethereal energy, ethereal shield (a protective shield created and controlled by Nova's will), ehthereal blade (can create a giant blade made purely out of ethereal energy that can cut through anything but itself. It takes a lot out of him so he rarely ever uses it
Strengths: Intelligence (when neccesary), extraordinary swordsmanship, adaptability, incredible speed and flexibility, a very potent/efficient but... "unique" style of fighting being it sword or hand to hand (think of a mix between capoeira, shaolin kung fu, and kenjutsu), deceptively strong and tough for somebody of his height and build

Weakiness: Afraid of dogs, runs out of breath faster than others, can sometimes be quite gullible, stubborn, lacks formal training from a master of swordsmanship or martial arts. Needs to stay in the present.
,
Background Information: Nova has been in the wandering buisness since he was nine years old. He never had much of a home anymore considering that his family was ripped apart by a large pack of vicious wild dogs and etc. Since then, he'dg arts been on the road, learning skills, and techniques, recieving training from vaious swordsmen and martial artists and fulfillling himself. Eventually, his trainers noticed that he had a talent for the fighting arts as he merged various styles together. He still loves learning the fighting arts and looks to learn and merge more. He's had quite a few adventures, and even more capers around the northern lands. Many involving cults. The wierdest thing is that he still hasn't been able to rid of his fear of dogs. That's his next priority.

[Jecht]

Awesome we have nearly a complete set of characters, I will give it a few days, if anyone wishes to sign up, please do so, I will update this thread later today along with my first post to display the characters taken and the one that remains.

If nobody signs up over the next few days someone or myself will take on a second character and begin this RP. This is a very in depth story and has been one of the most viewed threads on my original forum, the story both played and read by other members is totally worth it and will keep you waiting for more even once the RP comes to a close.

There is a sequal RP written up that takes place after this, so if that interests you, lets make the best of this RP. I have already played out most of the sequal RP and I am beginning to write up a third RP that continues even further along with a prequal to the stories.

I look forward to seeing all of your characters in action

[Judge Ghis]

Looks good so far, but my only concern for this is that a lot of the people on the previous page may have left, so you would have to reapply for more characters.

 

[Jecht]

Yeah that's the only problem with an RP requiring a certain amount of characters and how long it takes to get them all. I will see about PM'ing those members which will hopefully get their attention through E-Mail. I will either edit or post a new post tomorrow to begin this RP. Thanks to all who joined.
