Veritas Magus: N/A
Town: Welk
Bio: Serin had actually been raised in Fainth, having grown up to even join part of Thanatos's own personal guard. After three years however, he managed to resign and returned to the peaceful life of Welk to mull things over in his life. After a fellow resident had received their Veritas Magus, he took an interest to it. Serin is a young magician and a skilled athelete. His only remaining family is his mother who apparently worries very much about him. Despite his former occupation, Serin says that currently he has very little skill with the blade. Another thing about him, when he returned the people who knew him were astonished to find that Serin had no shadow. He says that during his time in Fainth, a fellow wizard had "cursed" him.

Username: Terra
Name: Varil [Goes by no other name.]
Gender: Male
Age: Unknown, apparently somewhere in his twenties.
Species: Human
Magic Affinity: No.
Veritas Magus: Ater
Town: Fainth
Bio: Not much is known about Varil, he is what remains of the boy who had tried stopping Thanatos's plans. He now fully utilizes Ater's power to hunt down the other Veritas Magus. He can be a cold and merciless warrior, easily striking down any who get in his way.
Appearance: He hides his face underneath the darkness of a hood which he never pulls down. Not much can be seen apart from the black cloak he wears. Varil is a tall broad-shouldered male, standing an inch or two over six feet.
Weapon: Carries a pitch black sword on him at all times. As there are no other sources for his power, this must be Ater's form.

Username: Fayt-Harkwind
Name: Nox Libra
Gender: male
Age: 27
Species: Nephilim
Magic Affinity: No
Veritas Magus: Petra
Town: Murex
Bio: As a child Nox lived near the elder of Murex, he observed the Veritas Magus a lot each day and idolised them. In his attempts to become one he trained himself to become strong in both physical and mental conditions, from this he learned a lot but lacked efficient practise of a vast amount of his knowledge. This causes him to seem odd at times when he attempts new things and very child-like in his actions towards those new things. He lacked the ability to use natural magic but with Petra, which was passed down to him, he could use it’s powers.

Username: Ven
Name: Julie Fox
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Species: Human
Magic Affinity: No.
Veritas Magus: Tempest
Town: Arlian
Bio: Julie was born and raised in Arlian. She doesn’t remember much of her past due to an incident where she was hit in the head as a child. She was separated from her mother at a young age, and due to her memory, she doesn’t quite remember how her mother looked like or what exactly happened to her. She can only remember the simple little things a mother would do to her child. Due to her memory problems, her mood can at times change, causing her to get frustrated but she usually thinks positive and makes any bad thoughts go away. Other than that, Julie is quiet, calm and kind. Along the way, she took interest in the Veritas Magus, wanting to become one once she felt she was ready.

Username: Twilight Knight
Name: Raphael Heart
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Species: Nephilim
Magic Affinity: No
Veritas Magus: Flamma
Town: Arilan
Bio: Like most other children, Raphael ran away to Arilan in search of acceptance. He was looked down upon for his wings are a bit larger than most other Nephilims, and are a dark red color. His eyes were also an odd mix of blue and red, with a jet black color covering what were once the white part of his eyes. He escaped from Fainth with only the help of his massive amount of luck which has followed him since birth. When he reached Arilan, he worked various odd jobs. He found a magician using magic preforming on the street. When the magician was done, Raphael asked if he could learn. The magician kindly obliged. Although, Raphael had trouble learning magic. The only magic he could do well was fire type magic. After he was done learning, he went out in search for his destiny, or at least something that would relieve him of his boredom. And thus, he stumbled upon the Flamma. He became fond of his power, and now, like the magician, he preforms in front of crowds of people, dazzling them with fire.

Age: 19
Species: Faerie
Magic Affinity: Yes
Veritas Magus: Unda
Town: Etha
Bio: Alec was born to a pair of traveling Faeries. They traveled across the land, gathering information as they were scholars back home. They tried to raise Alec the same way but he loved the adventure of traveling, not the studying. One night, while near Murex, Alec was separated from his parents in the snow. He searched for them, but ended up quite a distance away. Deciding that he'd rather travel on his own, he gave up looking for them and headed west, eventually ending up in Etha. He knew about the Veritas Magus from his travels with his parents, but never imagined to actually be close to one. When offered the spear of Unda, he decided to safeguard it, forsaking his traveling ways. He's been in Etha for the latter half of his long life.

Bestiary

Spoiler

Anaconda

Large snakes that can be hard to spot. They tend to sneak up on unsuspecting victims.
Locations: Welk and Etha
Rarity: Uncommon
Threat Level: Moderately Low

Bugbears

Spoiler

In essence, these are Etha's equivalents of Minotaurs. To make up for their lack of weapons in horns, they carry a mace.
Locations: Etha
Rarity: Uncommon
Threat Level: Moderately High

Chimera

The Chimera are a form of what seems to be a tiger only they have spikes jutting out of their body which would be easily able to tear through armor. On all fours they're as tall as a full-sized human and these creatures come with quite a temper.
Locations: Murex and Etha
Rarity: Uncommon
Threat Level: High

Drops

These creatures are weak alone but have the uncanny ability to split in half to create more of their own kind. Generally bladed weapons will only cause more to be created and thus only magic and blunt weapons will truly crush one of these Drops. They attack by attempting to engulf their victim within their own slime. Even if one manages to escape, they may find themselves with certain afflictions. The Blue Drop may freeze its victim, the Green Drop may actually transfer venom into one's body, and the Red Drop has a surface temperature hot enough to burn any who touch it.
Locations: Welk outskirts, Etha, and Fainth outskirts
Rarity: Very Common
Threat Level: Minimum to Moderate

Dragons

These massive beasts are highly dangerous, they tend to have the same basic structure and different species of dragons are noted to have different colored scales as well as a different elemental they command. The three dragons that have ever been reported to be seen are the Snow Dragons(left), Red Dragons(middle), and Blue Dragons(right). Specifically, the Snow Dragons and Red Dragons hold power over Ice and Fire respectively while the Blue Dragons control the Lightning elemental. Very few have ever survived an encounter with a dragon and lived to tell the tale. These beings are notorious for hoarding treasure and visciously striking at any who enter their territory and yet there have some strange stories about a kind of dragon that is both like a god and a friend to mankind. None have ever seen such a beast but this tale still lives on.
Locations: Unknown.
Rarity: Rare.
Threat Level: Pray you never see one.

Giant Worms

These creatures roam the vast plains in between the cities, many of them burrow underground and wait for a horse to ride over before sprouting out and attacking. The largest of these monsters would be about three times the height of the average human. Their only means of attack is their teeth. They're quite a deal faster than one would think on the surface.
Locations: The Plains(areas between cities)
Rarity: Common
Threat Level: Moderate

Golems

Living rock, these creatures are slow moving, ill-tempered, and extremely dangerous. It is rare to find them anywhere away from caves but it has been said that they wander about the lands searching for something. Unless one uses a magical weapon, blunt force will be useless against these mighty creatures.
Locations: Murex and Fainth
Rarity: Uncommon
Threat Level: High

The Lich

They are said to be the oldest beings in existence alongside the dragons. Only stories of these demons exist. They are unlike anything one would ever imagine. They are far more than flesh and are the very essence of evil. They are said to be extinct, wiped out by the dragons as the two are mortal enemies. Only a Lich can stand up to the might of a dragon alone.
Locations: N/A
Rarity: Extinct
Threat Level: Abandon all hope if you should ever run into one.

Lullabud

The Lullabuds are larger than the most common flowers and can be seen to grow anywhere, they take the form of exotic plants and lure in their prey. They are stationary but have long enough stems to be a danger to those who walk near them. They can also release a powder that is strong enough to knock out a full-sized human(faerie/elf/etc). They always appear to have a closed bud but when one is close enough, it opens wide to reveal its jaws.
Locations: Everywhere.
Rarity: Very Common
Threat Level: Minimum

Minotaurs

The Minotaur are a very territorial race, although they are dim-witted their brute strength more than makes up for it. For the average traveller, one's only hope would be to hide and stay out of sight. A small group of warriors...or a few individuals with magical items would be more than capable of bringing one of these twelve-foot tall creatures down. The Minotaur have been seen to wear basic armor but they lack weapons other than their own horns.
Locations: Murex
Rarity: Common
Threat Level: Moderate

Sphynx

Although in myth the Sphynx are supposed to be creatures that watch over treasure and test those who come across it with riddles, this is mostly not true. These are rare creatures that have nearly been wiped out, the remaining species now reside in Thanatos's castle as a sort of protective service. These creatures are dangerous and lightning quick killers. Use extreme caution when dealing with them.
Locations: Thanatos's castle.
Rarity: Rare
Threat Level: High

Wolves

These are common creatures. Nothing magical exists about them. They are always in packs and can be dangerous to the average person.
Locations: Everywhere outside of cities.
Rarity: Common
Threat Level: Moderate

Wyvern

Lesser dragons. They cannot breathe fire but they have access to their claws and fangs. They're still larger than a human and would provide a challenge when facing one so it would be best to avoid confrontation with these beasts. They often travel in groups of twos so be ready when facing them.
Locations: Fainth outskirts
Rarity: Highly Uncommon
Threat Level: High

The Lost Lands

If there are any questions about the RP or suggestions for new species or anything someone wants to comment on, post here. This thread will also serve as a discussion for how the plot will move on as well as a place where people can post their OCs for the RP which I provided a link for at the top.

 

I saw that! To answer your question about magic, yes. It is very basic in this RP. Any suggestions made here will be taken into consideration. You're in, thanks for posting here.

 

You two are in. ^^

 

Technically no. That's why I let you in. The magic you said your character had matched the element of Flamma. And yes, the object gives someone without magical power...magical power. Innate magic(magic one can learn if they're born with it) in this RP is very limited and does not extend to that of elementals.

 

Yeah. 8D

You could be either. Hell, you could even be a human if your bio gives good enough reason for your character to be in Etha.

 

Didn't expect anyone other than Shadox to use that race. She did suggest it...still, it's only fair that it's an open race like the others. Get on MSN and I'll help you. D8< You're in but I'll edit when you pick a picture. I'm thinking of starting sometime today. Maybe in a good twenty or so minutes.

 

Very good. Well, we'll be starting sometime tomorrow. Probably around 4PM Mountain time. << Bet nobody's heard of that time before.

 

It's 6:28 PM according to my laptop. So I've missed my little deadline. However, I have more than half of my post typed up so we'll be starting soon.

 

I was thinking about simply making another..."space" for anyone else who would join in. My RPs are always open but currently all the Veritas Magus are taken or reserved. I dunno if the person who asked for Lucus is still going to join but I won't reserve it forever. I had in my mind an idea for another Veritas Magus. You can PM me if you want me to make another one for you and we can discuss the details of it. Otherwise, you'll have to join without one(which isn't all that bad) or wait until tomorrow which is when I'm planning on taking off the restriction for Lucus.
