It's been just over 3 years since FFD opened, and it's been a close knit community, one which we've all been able to share our problems together, talk freely and discuss any kind of topic that we wanted, from Final Fantasy to problems with school.

Unfortunately, the decision was made to archive the board while it still had some minimal activity, rather than let spammers come and take over, which I think we will all agree on. Although there was the fair share of drama, people leaving and not much activity, the fact that we managed to keep it going until now is a statement to say that we weren't going to let it go down without trying our best to keep it open.

So after 3 years, 50000 posts and over 1000 topics later, with one of the best and closest communities on the web, FFDiscussion has closed on the 1st December 2010

Okay, so Jimi and I have begun work on a new RP. Nothing too in depth, but it should whet our appetites.

Now, the story.

The kingdoms surrounding the barren, desolate wasteland of Mortair are under attack. From this vast desert, hordes of vile creatures spring forth, ravaging the lands of the free peoples. At the center of it all...

Sits the Black Tower. The dark, obsidian stone reflects no light,, and repels any fire, withstands any missile, neigh impregnable. But it is not the tower itself that stands threat to the free peoples of the land of Eriador.

It is he who sits within, upon his dark throne. The wizard, Deuce Baaj. From his fortress of magick stone, he sends forth his abominations, creatures born of his great, arcane power. He sends them to do battle, and to ravage all that dare oppose his dominion of the land. One by one, the free lands of Eriador fall into his black, iron grasp. Only one land, one king, still dares to hold his banner high.

Philos, high lord of Palamir, land of the knights of the Silver Sun. He alone has the might to hold at bay the unnatural forces of darkness that assail him. But he alone can last only so long.

Thrusting back his advances merely buys the free men of Palamir time, however precious. It is the root of the problem, Deuce Baaj, that must be pulled from the soil, if men are ever to flourish again. Time and time again, attempts as invasion fail, and the wizard sits mocking from his dark fortress. Different measures are needed.

So the king sends out a cry for help to all the corners of the lands, seeking those who will venture forth and slay the wizard. Will you answer?

Alright, so make your characters here. We want new characters, unless you drastically change yours. No half-demons, half-angels, or anything outrageous or the like. We also NEED back-stories. We need some motivation for taking on the quest, or some reason that the king would summon you. Be creative, and have fun!

Also, the races are as follows:

Men (duh)
Elves (also duh)
Dwarves (not so much duh)
Gnomes


Have at it!

Name: Shinu

Age
: 17

Profession
: Warrior

Magic Use
: None.

Appearance
:
Physical:
Shinu is a full six feet, three inches tall with a medium sized frame.
He has definitive muscles from the constant training his body goes
through. His core and legs are far stronger than his upper body, which
in itself is quite formidable. His abdominals and chest are broad and
strong, a perfect mix for a swordsman such as Shinu. His skin
complexion is somewhat of a copper brown with a bit more of a glow than
normal, but nothing too far out of the ordinary. Shinu has a very small
amount of facial hair by choice, and it makes up a thin goatee with a
connecting moustache. His eyes and hair are a matching dark brown. He
wears his hair straight down, usually sifted through with his fingers
for separation of his fine straight hair. His bangs go down just to his
mid forehead. He has a strong jaw line, with a minimally protruding
chin. His lips are full for a man, but not really compared to most
women.

Everyday Attire: On an average day with no training
involved, or light work, Shinu will wear typical clothes. He wears long
brown cotton shorts that walk the fine line between shorts and capris.
They go down to about his high calf and have two pockets on his hips
and a draw string to adjust the waistband. His shirts are all muscle
shirts black in color that are close to form fitting. His shoes are
special made from a childhood friend who uses a special leather that
conforms to his foot, they are jet black in color.

Armor
(Upper): Shinu's armor is one of a kind, and can be found no where else
in Palamir. He spent four years designing and creating it himself. An
old traveler once told him of the great waters and the colors
infatuated Shinu's mind. The primary hue of his armor was a sea foam
blue with a shade of emerald embedded in it. It comes off as a subtle
surface water color that intermixes with the silver the armor is made
from. His helmet is trilayered, to extend out past his neck, but still
allow for swiveling his head. All three layers are blue, the further
back the layer, the darker the shade. Like the rest of the armor, it
has a soft dull gold trim. He wears matching shoulder plates and body
bracer, with spontaneous holes to allow for the body to cool itself in
the heat of battle. His undergarments flow out from under the armor and
are a matching blue that flows behind him as he runs, streaming from
the helmet and waist. Each ribbon on the helment is about a foot in
length and the ribbon around the waist is half a foot in width and four
feet in length. He also has blue forearm plates that have five sliding
layers to allow for freedom or protection when desired. He wears gray
soft gloves that prevent blisters when holding his shield and sword.
HIs shield has a purple cover over the front, so that no one may see
what is underneath. He feels that a formadable opponent will be able to
uncover it, but Shinu has yet to meet that person. It is ovulated in
shape, but thins out towards the bottom, and at the top it is carved
into three arches turning downwards, creating a castle like shape at
the top. A single elongated sapphire jewel is encased beneath the slim
hilt that was about two feet in length to allow for varied hand
placement, allowing shifts between power and speed. Wrapped around the
hilt is one long ribbon over and over to add a smooth padding that
enables him to swing with full force each stroke. The blade is four
feet long and a mere five inches in width and is extremely light. The
connecting gold trim between the hilt and the blade flares out into a
compact hoof like design.

Armor (Lower): The lower body was
the more difficult to design due to the flexibility that is demanded
for speed like Shinu's. The color tone changes and much more silver
than blue to blend in with the mid-day's sky. Under his armor he wears
dark gray tights made of the finest polyester to restrict his muscles
from tearing and allow complete movement. The armor on his thighs is
double layered with thick plating. The knee cap guard was on a hinge to
allow complete bending of the knee with complete protection, and one
long shin guard covered his chins. Spiraled designs covered the lower
body with the same dull gold trim seen throughout the rest of the armor
design.
History:
Shinu was
born into a family of one. His mother refused to find the man that
raped her and got her pregnant at the ripe age of sixteen years old.
She was only seventeen when she gave birth to Shinu and gave him her
father’s last name. His young mother was quickly flustered with what to
do with her young baby boy; he showed signs of growing far too quickly.
Pushups seemed to be a natural past time for Shinu, and he was running
two days after he learned to walk, and was only fifteen months old. He
was a strong baby, the strongest baby that his mother had ever seen. She was worried about letting it get out that he was so strong
because he’d quickly be recruited into the ongoing wars. There was
something about Shinu that always made her rethink the world, and she
told him daily that he was her gift from the heavens to take her
out of the life she was leading. Eventually, she had to decide on
letting Shinu go to school and risk his safety, or keep him at home
under her safe protection. She opted to home school young Shinu and
keep him under her care. Her son was all that she had in the world, and
conversely she was the only thing Shinu had. After ten hour work days
at the local leather maker’s shop, Shinu’s mother would return home to
her son, and somehow find the energy to read with Shinu, teach him
arithmetic, grammar, and even the history of their ravaged world. While
his mother was at work, Shinu would train inside, using a wooden sword
she helped him make. The young boy would spend hours on end
practicing his footwork around the house, perfecting sword thrusts and
slices from various arm angles, and developing his body as much as he
could. With relatively no social life outside of the people that his
mother traded with on a regular basis, Shinu fell in love with training
and learning. He probably would have gone mad if it were not for being
able to develop his mind and body daily. Shinu wasn’t exactly sure
when, but training became an art to him, as opposed as just a way to
get stronger. He trained and learned so that he couldn’t think; think
about the fact that he was so lonely. He stayed up late on some nights
and listened as the various couples would be strolling under the
moonlight. He heard many different types of relationships, everything
from the drunken men yelling at their women, to the noblest of men
courting their women in the finest of ways. Oh how he longed to be a
warrior, a glorious warrior with his lady to fight for. He wanted the
honor and glory of returning home from victory so that his lady would
be there to take care of her warrior. Little did he know, he hadn’t the
slightest clue what real love actually meant. He didn’t understand the
finer aspects, the hard work, the trials and tribulations, but it was
what he really wanted more than anything, love.

On Shinu’s
sixteenth birthday, his mother brought him home the greatest present
he’d ever received, but followed it with the worst news he could ever
imagine. His bittersweet birthday would change the course of his life
forever, and would be the last day he was ever able to see his mother.
When she came through the door, Shinu had his eyes locked on to a
slender object sticking out from his mother’s back. He was so excited
to show her what he’d been working on in between training all these
years. He pulled out a large wooden box from underneath the basement
entrance and moved it to the middle of the room in front of where she
was seated. He was full of joy, but for some reason, he could sense his
mother wasn’t. There seemed to be a sort of sorrow that he never saw in
her eyes. She was always so happy, so prideful, always carrying herself
with dignity, teaching Shinu the ways a man should court a woman. He
had to pull out his mother’s chair, open her door, and escort her with
his arm when they walked. Today was different though, that gleam of
hers was missing. Since he’d never been in this situation, Shinu wasn’t
quite sure what to do. The only thing he could think of was just to be
normal and maybe everything would be alright. He unlocked the box, and
flung it open, unveiling the helmet he’d made laying on top of the rest
of his armor. A forced smile came across his mother’s face as she
pulled the sword she’d brought him home out from behind her and set it
on the ground. Shinu smiled, and pulled the last ribbon he had left out
from the box and began to precisely wrap it around the hilt of his
blade. When he was done, he picked it up, admiring its beauty and
perfection. After giving it a few twirls and thrusts, he turned to his
mother and smiled once again, his eyes trying desperately to make her
happy. He saw that it wasn’t working, and so he put the blade in his
box, moving it back underground. When he closed it, he stood up and
dusted himself off. He was a grown man now, finally of age. He was
almost six feet tall with room to grow still, and he didn’t have a
boy’s body. His mother was so proud, and because of this, she began to
cry on that couch, an image of his mother that Shinu has yet to shake
today. When he asked what was wrong, his mother decided to share with
him the news that she’d feared his entire life. It turns out that her
youth life had caught up to her, and the trouble she’d been mixed up in
had finally caught up to her. She stole from a man many years back
in Palamir, and he had finally tracked her down. She was to be
persecuted and sentenced to death for violation of the least tolerated
crimes one could commit in the Palamir. That night was full of sorrow and
sadness, but no fear. Shinu’s mother taught him that night to never
fear death, that it was a human’s calling and everyone had their own
time. She asked Shinu to become the warrior that she never allowed him
to be. Her last request of him that she had was to finally allow the
world to see his power, and bring glory to their name that she failed
to do. After what seemed like a two second hug, which was more of an
hour long embrace, Shinu’s mother left him alone in the world, a man,
and a warrior left to face the world.

Shinu is now seventeen
years old. He’s grown into quite the warrior, getting into sparring
matches with the finest warriors Palimir has to offer and coming out
victoriously each time. His footwork, speed, and power have remained
unparalleled, and honor is something he doesn’t have to seek anymore.
The Palimirian men don’t question his power, his skill, or his tactical
brain. He accomplished most of what his mother asked him to do, but had
yet to show the entire world what the extent of his power could really
be. Furthermore, even if he had showed the entire world and earned all
of the respect a man could get, he still would not be
satisfied. No matter how much knowledge he acquired, how strong he got,
how many fights he’d won, he wouldn’t be complete. It was love and
fulfillment that he needed, and that was the thing that evaded Shinu
the most. Chivalry didn’t seem to be too popular anymore, and so he
wasn’t always received the right way. His confidence was taken as
arrogance, his kindness was taken as trying to get the upper hand, and
his thirst for power was received as a conquest, and so no woman would
try to have anything serious with him. Due to his physical condition,
sex was never hard to come by, but Shinu couldn’t allow himself to do
it. He was still on a quest to achieve the glory
his mother felt he was destined to receive, and find the all elusive
true love he could only think he wanted.
Personality:
Shinu
is a natural born leader, makes quick decisions, and always has a lot
of confidence in himself and his team. He's just your prototypical
protagonist that seems to have destiny on his side and always tries to
strive to be the best he can be.

Shinu is a very realistic
man, and optimism isn't exactly something he believes in much. If he is
in control of the situation, he is very confident, even arrogant.
However, it seems that depending on others brings out the pessimism and
makes him feel vulnerable.

He's very traditional, and although
he's a major flirt, he's a very firm believer in upholding chivalry.
He's a hopeless romantic that can never seem to find the one. Still, he
tries his luck with women often, and gets mixed reactions. He's quite
the charmer, but can be seen as a narcissist.

Shinu is
completely loyal and reliable. His work ethic and devotion to training
is something that could never be doubted. Hours upon hours of training
have took it's effect on his body, and his performs shows it. He may
joke around often, but if he is given an assignment, you can rest
assured it will be completed with a sense of professionalism.

Just a reminder to you all:

Don't make your profile like Jimi's. He just wants to show off.

Erk

Race: Elf

Class: Wizard

Build: Scrawny like a stick

Erk is High Druid of the First Coven of the Elven Magi. When the call to arms was sent out, Erk was the first to rally his people, and the armies of the kingdoms to come to the aid of Palamir, from the depths of their woodland homes.

However, Erk was not to face down the armies of the Dark Wizard in battle. It was his task that was the most dire of all. He was to lead the company through the treacherous lands about Mortair, for none other had seen that blasted land and walked away unscathed. Upon him lay the safety of those who would answer the call.

Mystic Quest (tentative) Empty
PostSubject: Re: Mystic Quest (tentative)   Mystic Quest (tentative) Icon_minitimeTue Aug 12, 2008 4:44 am

I'm going to keep my bio short...

Name: Ialdo Mazamin

Race: Human.

Class: Assassin

Magic Use: None

Age: 23

Height: 6'0"

Weight: 136

Appearance: Ialdo is an athletic, olive skinned human. He doesn't look particuarly muscly, however this is misleading. Ialdo has longish brown hair that has a jagged fringe that flops over his eyes. He does however, change his hairstyle every now and again, but it is usually just straight. Ialdos face is roundish, but not too much, he has an average sized nose and dark blue eyes. At the top of his right cheek, he has a small scar he gained from an enemy in battle. Not too many people find out this info, however.

Ialdos battle clothing consists of something that he won't stand out in, due to being more of an assasin than anything else. He wears dark combat boots, dark trousers, a sleevless black shirt that has a hood on the back of it, that he usually wears. On the shirt, is a white spiral desgin near the top of his shirt on the left hand side. Underneath this assassins garb, he wears a small amount of body armour, that doesn't cover too much of his body, so it isn't too restrictive. On both of his arms, he wears black leather that he wraps around them, until it reaches his fore arm. On his right hand (his preferred hand), he wears a gauntlet that conceals a small dagger beneath the wrist. Also, on the front of his he holds a few small throwing knives, and on the side of his right leg, a small sheath. On his ankle, he wears a small sheath there as well.

If Ialdo isn't on a mission, in battle, or expecting danger, then he wears a different style of clothing. This consists of a loose white shirt, with some grey long shorts on, which he wears with a large black belt on. His footwear is the same as usual, dark combat boots. Ialdo also wears some dark red open fingered gloves. Near the top of his combat boots, he has a sheath just in case anything does occur while he isn't on anything clan related or important.

Battle: Ialdo's primary weapon is a long dagger which he has a fair amount of expertise with. His secondary weapons include a small dagger which can sheathed and unsheathed at a flick of his wrist contained in his gauntlet beneath his wrist. He uses this only for assassinations, however. Other secondary weapons he uses include small throwing daggers which he uses at a range and a short dagger which he keeps hidden in his boots. He does, however, have another primary weapon:a Bō staff which has been passed down through his clan of assassins. It seems like a fairly ordinary staff, except it has been reinforced by steel and has a spike at each end.
Due to the dagger being impractical in large scale battles and him not being as skilled with the Bō staff (Due to not using it to much because to its size), he is not the best person to use in a large scale battle. ANother flaw in his combat is the opposite of it, his defence. While the dagger is useful at blocking other extremely short range weapons, it isn't useful in defence against something like a long sword, and although the staff is quite useful, he doesn't use it much. He is however, fairly agile and due to this, defence isn't a massive role for him, unless surrounded, which is rare.

Personality: Ialdo is a cold hearted person due to the nature of his work: assassination. Although this is good for not feeling any empathy for the people he kills, this does not win him over many friends and due to this, he prefers to be alone. Unless incredibly calm at that moment in time, Ialdo is quick tempered and is hostile to anyone he doesn't know. As the head of his assassins clan, this can be quite useful, incase of any other rival assassination atempts. However, when Ialdo becomes friends with people - which can take quite a while - he can be a useful friend to have, but his usual cold heartedness remains, albeit tempered slightly

Biography: Ialdo was accepted into a guild of Assassins at a young age when found abandoned on the streets. He began training and quickly rose up the ranks and by the age of 19, he was already the head of the guild due to his skills.

When the call for arms came out, Ialdos infamous assassins guild ignored the call until eventually, King Philos himself sent a letter to Ialdo requesting for his skills in the war. Ialdo accepted for a hefty fee and joind the group on their quest...

Personality: Asuma's mood is quiet and to himself, when in a group of people he does not know. Fr a swordsman for hire, he is seen as naive, meaning that he doesn't take his job seriously. On a job he is usually loud, and lets information about himself slip without even thinking. This often leads to his target finding out he is being hunted, and therefore, they run. But, Asuma likes the chase better than just catching them without a fight. So, he chases after them, drawing them into a corner, where they'll fight back. He tends to draw battles out, never really taking anything seriously. Even around those who are dangerous, he acts like nothing is wrong. He has no worries, and takes everything easily. Even war. But, he always does what he is hired for.
When angered, or prevoked, Asuma loses himself, his personality taking a 180degree turn for the worst. After he is angered or prevoked, he becomes sadistic, and tends to kill aimlessly, tending to kill around the person that angered him rather than kill them himself. He says that this gives his target more fear of him, and that that fear increases his ability, as he grows excited when he sees his target running or hiding in fear of him. When he is angered he "see's everything in red" so to say, meaning that if anyone angers him, no matter who, he will do the same to anyone.
He tries to hide his killer intent from everyone around him, afraid of himself because he likes to kill aimlessly. But, he sometimes slips up, and ends up killing for fun occasionally, to keep himself under control. Killing animals is what is done, but yet sometimes that isn't enough. And when that happens, he is uncontrollable, and even forgets himself.
Weapons: Asuma carries two swords, each a differnt kind, size, and shape.. The first sword, is a regular Baguadao, five feet in length, and four inches in width. The hilt is blood red, and has a black circle attached to the end of the hilt to draw the blade easier. The hilt itself is blood red, and the guard goes in two directions. At the top of the hilt, where the blunt side of the blade is, the hilt goes out, in an L shape, pointed at the end of the sword. At the front of the hilt, where the sharp part of the blade is, the hilt goes in, forming another L shape, to protect the user’s hand. This is also black. The hilt is a mix of black and blood red, and has various symbols and shapes running down it, most notably the large Chinese dragon running down the top of the sheath.
The second sword is a large Dadao, around four feet, the blade, with a foot and a half hilt. The blade starts out as five inches thick, then goes out like a scimitar, into a sword without a point, like a cleaver, but angled to the sharp part like an acute angle. The hilt, jet black, and has a black circle on the bottom of the hilt for easier drawing. The hilt, is in the same shape as well.
Bio: When Asuma was born, he was born into a family of mercenaries, and was taught to only concern himself with those who had money, and then to try and do anything he could for them. You see, his childhood consisted of daily training, his family trying to kill him during it to make him stronger. This only proved to be the wrong course of action, when one day he was injured by an arrow in his right shoulder. Enraged, Asuma took the sword he had, and killed the man who had shot him. Witnesses say that when he attacked the man, his face was horrid; showing only malice, hatred, and the want to kill everything around him. Scared of him, his family put him under serveilance, always watching him to see if it would happen again. But, it never did. And so, the training resumed, and Asuma grew up. One day, however, it was the day of his final training. That day he would recieve the title of Mercenary, and go to the nearest kingdom to ask for a job. At this age, he had already learned to kill, and had killed a few targets of his own for tests. Throughout all of this, he passed, and his family never thought anything of his past. But, in the final trials, he was shot in his right leg, and right shoulder. It was then that he was enraged. In a matter of minutes, everyone on the training ground was dead. Twenty people, all mercenaries in training, all just as skilled, if not moreso than he was, killed by his hand. As his parents came to the training grounds, they found him standing there, a murderous look in his eyes. His father tried to stop him, but failed, only succeening in giving Asuma a deep would on his right forearm. Asuma succeeded in killing his father, and then moved on to massacre the rest of his family still in his home. When he awoke from his rage, he looked upon his home, and knew what he had done. He left that day, and never returned. He was thirteen when that happened. Over the next three years, he became a swordsman for hire, taking any job he could to earn enough money to live. This is how he got his next job. It was to join the group going against the Black Mage. He was to come back with the Mage's head, and he would recieve enough money to last him three lifetimes. He accepted, and is now going to join the group to embark to the Obsidian Tower.

I was thinking of joining, but I'm not too sure. I've got a profile for a new rp character that I've been working on, but there's already an assassin in the story.


I'm not too sure, help me out here guys! (i'll get the profile up after I've finished working on it. For now, there's a "preview" in my sig of my new character!)

Ok. Just so you all don't think I've abandoned or have gotten lazy, I started school last thursday, and I have band as well. Then I have friends asking me to come over every other day, and so my schedule is kind of packed. If the story needs me to post, I'm giving John and Jimi control of Asuma.

Just thought I'd say.

I think you should join James. The fact that there are assassins already means nothing because the King would definitely call upon assassins since that's the mission we're on.

Also for you aaryn, we'll definitely make sure we take care of you. I don't know Asuma like I know Kisa, but I think I have a decent idea of how you want him to be written.

I got you aaryn. I think I know exactly how to write him, though his style is wildly different than Shinu's.

Haha. Well then, Jimi. This should give you a little info on how to rp Asuma.

Just look at my last post in the rp. You'll see Razz

But just so you know, I really didn't mean for it to be that long. XD

Again, it was only my annoying thing where I have to type EVERYTHING I want out >_<
