Crystalline Magic

[Saber Knight]

There are six elements that govern this world: Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Light, and Dark. It has been this way since the beginning of time, and it will surely be this way forever. Light may not exist unless there is first darkness, and we may not feel the singe of fire without the cool of water, nor would the air have reason without the earth.

Originally, the power of magic and the elements belonged solely to the Marked. Those born with an animal-shaped mark on them could harness the power of one of the six elements. The Marked were both revered and feared.

It wasn’t long, though, before the Marks began to divide people. Different elements began to split apart, even though it was the unity of the elements that created our fair world. Jealousy sprung out between elements, and it was not long before the world fell into chaos and fighting, each element fighting for total control, seeking to demonstrate that they were superior to all.

However, there could be no victor, as there is no superior element. Regardless, the fighting continued on for nearly a hundred years before they figured out a way to stop the fighting: They would divide the continent into several territories so that each element might have a home. The division of the elements went against the principles the world was founded upon, but the people were tired of fighting and ready for peace, so they were glad to find a way out of war.

The people of light took to the eastern side of the continent, where the sun rose. Traditionally, they were devout followers of Corinthas, the god of light, so they set up an empire governed by the worship of their god. There were four light marks in particular that were said to be closest to their god, so there would be one chosen from each of the four marks and the four would jointly rule.

The people of darkness took to the west—the land where the sun set and darkness began. It was not long before a powerful leader during the war rose to power, and after that the land was always controlled by whatever dictator could fight into power. As a result, the Empire of Darkness was often in discord, but it never fell apart.

The people of earth went to the mountain range located near the center of the continent. A monarchy was set up in the mountains. Also, a smaller portion of the people of the earth went to the mountains in the north.

The people of air did not set up a country in the same manner as the other elements. They set up four outposts—one in the north, one in the east, one in the west, and one in the south. At each one resided one of the four Winds—the most powerful of the Air Marked, and chosen to be a Wind at birth. The people of air, for the most part, wandered like the wind and were generally accepted through the continent.

The people of water went to an archipelago of islands off the southwest coast of the mainland, and they also set up some colonies on the mainland as well as taking some of the southern islands. An aristocracy was set up with a council of elders that met often to govern the land.

The people of fire went to the northeastern plains. They could not agree on a leader, so they split into several tribes based on the different Marks. A chieftain rules each tribe, and, even when the tribes are warring, the chieftains will still meet on a yearly basis to discuss matters.

The dividing of the people seemed to ease the tensions for some time. Of course, nothing can stay perfect, and the countries grew jealous of the lands of others, and wars began anew, though nothing to the scale of the First War. New discoveries were also made—such as the power of Crystalline Magic. It was found that a certain type of crystal could store magical energy to be used later… and not only this, but one did not need a Mark to use the power stored within. Though still not everyone was capable of using the stored magic (if one’s mind was not strong enough, it would be destroyed), suddenly the gap between the Marked and the ordinary citizens diminished. The Earth Marked, due to their connection with the earth, became the primary miners of the crystal, and developed into a wealthy merchant nation.

Crystalline magic was heavily limited, though. A non-Marked could only use the spell that was put into the crystal, while a Marked could simply draw pure magic from the crystal. The only advantaged that non Marked had was that they could use every element. A Marked was able to use other elements’ crystalline magic except for their opposite element.

More power, however, means more likelihood for chaos. The Empires of Dark and Light have never really forgiven each other, and even though they reside on opposite sides of the continent, they are always at war. A strange group of people bearing Dark Marks on the northeastern peninsula have suddenly appeared. Rumors travel along the continent of ambitious Marked wanting the country for their own. The common border skirmishes seem only inches away from erupting into yet another continental war...

And what can we do to stop it?

Okay, so, that was really long, I think my RP intros are just getting longer and longer, but I had a bunch to explain and wanted to get it all out. Alright is ridiculously late and I should be getting to bed but I had to get this RP out before RP week ends.

So... you know the drill, create a character. Here's the template:

Name:
Gender:
Age:
Element: (Even if you do not wish to play a Marked, you're gonna be affiliated with an element)
Mark: (The type of Mark. All Marks are in the shape of animals. Again, even if you do not wish to play a Marked, you are probably associated with a certain animal, but that depends on the society you want to live in. However, if you are not a Marked and simply affiliated with a certain Mark, please specify)

I'll get mine up tomorrow at a more sane hour.

Here is a ROUGH DRAFT of the map of... continent that needs a name... I'm pretty sure you can figure out the countries by color... as a note, the general area of The North Wind is left white because no country has claimed it A) because those peaks are the highest in the world and no one's really interested in them, and 2) because the meeting place of the Winds is generally at the North Wind's place because it's the highest point on the continent... other Winds may lie in other countries, but they aren't really ruled by them... just kinda there. I should have made a key for the map... I'll explain the geographical features laterrrr...

And I forgot to color in water. Go me.

Feel free to ask questions... I'm writing this all wicked late at night, so I'm sure I skipped something. Oh, magic isn't really strictly limited to your element... like, a Fire Marked wouldn't be limited to Azuri FireCrafting (way to make a reference to your own RP, Saber SHUT IT)... I mean, all elements can do some basic stuff like levitating objects.

Oh, yes, I forgot to mention this and it got brought up in the OOC thread... the world a little more advanced than Azuri... It's still pretty medieval, but kind of got some steam punk elements... comparable to the world of Avatar: The Last Airbender. Mostly medieval, but with some stuff like zepplins, and such.

[Blue Fire Cyndaquil]

Name: Steropes
Gender: Male
Age:15
Element: Air
Mark: Hyppogriff
Personality: Talks too much, an outcast for the longest time. He has been teased and picked on through his lie so far. This has caused him to create a shell of apathy and untrusting, but inside is quite nice. It comes out at times.
Appearance: Brown hair, white skin, 5'3", in good shape. Wears jeans and a t-shirt.
Background: Look at personality for part of it. His parents never really cared much for him, and he was an only child, so h was lonely. He used this time lone to train his abilities.

Are there specific makes(animals) that have only been known to appear in one element?

And will post charater later ^_^

Name: Jing Malamit
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Element: Earth
Mark: None
Personality: Jing is a planner, he's always thinking one step ahead and knows a lot about how business work, he knows what to say to get things done and how to get people doing what he wants them to do even if they doesn't realize it. He can generally gauge peoples personalities well. He's analytical and has a good sense of right and wrong.
Appearance: Jing is 6"4, has board shoulders and muscular (only slightly though, not the over-the top beefy kind), he has brown hair and amber eyes, he's generally wearing black work boots, brown pants, white shirt and a dark brown trench coat.
Background: Jings father owns one of the richest mines of the Earth Nation (which mainly minded Crystalline), and as such he was trained since he was 13 to take over the family business. He was swapped between the different departments to learn how the mine works and having worked with and been friends with the workforce developed an idealistic yet practical way of running things.
Although he became quickly efficient at the work he was expected to do and had potential to rise above his father capabilities he has recently begun suspicious of the managers his father has left in charge of the running of the mine. He rarely saw his father at the mine or office and from what he's overheard while the mine has been prospering the employees have been overworked. From his understanding things started getting to be the ways are now when the mine started growing and his father began hiring managers. As such he has recently been looking into the manager and past records for the mine while trying not to get noticed.

TIEM TO ENTER MULTIPLE CHARACTERS AGAIN AS IS MY NORM! 8D
Shamelessly imported from my RO roleplay characters, as I'd originally designed fourteen of them around certain animals. SK might recognize this first guy, as I've mentioned his name to her before. The rest of you should find it similar to another existing character somewhere in this forum. :P (No they're not related; I picked his name separately and only realized the similarity afterward.)

Name: Galinthias
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Element: Air
Mark: Mantis
Personality: Endlessly patient, capable of waiting extremely long times for what he wants. He likes to wait for things to come to him, rather than pursuing them. When irked, he can become quite ruthless, retaliating against anyone regardless of their age, gender, social ranking, etc.
Appearance: Short, black hair above a layer of much longer, red hair. Black eyes. His Mark is located on the inside of his left forearm. Wears a green, sleeveless, fur-collared tunic over long off-white pants; the tunic is long enough to reach his ankles and parts in the front from the waist down. Has a belt on over the tunic.
Background: A scholar, Galinthias wanders the continent, sampling whatever knowledge the other countries are willing to impart to him. His odd choice of clothing usually attracts attention. Currently residing at the West Outpost.
Text color: Forest Green

Name: Paranaja
Gender: Female
Age: 30
Element: Dark
Mark: Cobra
Personality: Despite her profession, Paranaja acts extremely aloof. She takes both cheering and jeering in stride, paying no further heed to her audience once her dance is done and never responding to sly invitations to company. Inside, she is insecure, having lost her family to the most recent war in the Empire, and afraid to get too close to anyone for fear of losing them as well.
Appearance: Long black hair, cut straight at the ends and with bangs above the eyebrows. Black eyes. Has a tattoo of a black cobra on the nape of her neck, which is usually hidden by her hair. Wears a black and cream colored dancer's outfit, revealing much of her skin. When not working, she wears a more practical short-sleeved, high-collared black tunic, a short black skirt, cream-colored leggings, long cream-colored gloves, and black boots.
Background: Works as an entertainer at the Empire of Darkness' capital. Through subtle use of crystals, she is capable of influencing an entire court of people with her dances. As she owes her allegiance to no one but the best-paying employer, this makes her a prized tool of the current Emperor, who granted her and her musician quarters in the palace. Unexpectedly skilled with a bow and whip.
Text color: Ivory

Name: Dendrobates
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Element: Dark
Mark: Poison Dart Frog
Personality: Extremely nervous and acquiescent. Jumpy and easy to startle. Only at ease when playing musical instruments.
Appearance: Long dark blond hair, approaching very very very light brown, parted in the middle and tied in a high ponytail, with bangs framing the face. Black eyes. Has a tattoo of a poison dart frog on his right calf, which is covered by his clothing. Wears a heavy black coat (always fastened closed) with dark blue diamonds on the lower hem, long black pants, and black shoes. Carries with him several instruments (lute, flute, violin), which are reinforced to serve their secondary purpose as makeshift weapons in case of emergency.
Background: A bard, he follows Paranaja, playing music for her performances. He also sometimes performs alone. He feels intimidated by his older, stoic partner, but is too afraid to leave. Besides, the job pays well.
Text color: Midnight Blue

Geez, this is the oldest group of RP characters I have on this forum... (not counting the immortal/super-long-lived ones, obviously)
Galinthias is a Marked. Paranaja and Dendrobates are not.
I made up all that stuff about courts and capitals and palaces in the Empire of the Dark. I'll edit it later if it's too wonky.

[Saber Knight]

Are there specific makes(animals) that have only been known to appear in one element?

And will post charater later ^_^

Well, as a general trend, there are bird marks for the people of the Air and aquatic marks for the people of the Water... But there are always exceptions for either. Oh, and Makrs can be mythological creatures, but that means you're really powerful, those Marks are stronger... Ex, the two main clans of Fire are Phoenix and Dragon.

I'd explain more, but I'm litterally typing this as I'm running out the door... ta!

[Metalheadz]

Text color: Orange

[Saber Knight]

Sorry guys! Thought I'd have the chance to get my profile up sooner... oops.

Name: Princess Kairavi
Gender: Female
Age: 15
Element: Light
Mark: Peacock
Personality: Very kindhearted and friendly. She is incredibly charismatic, and people seem to be drawn to her. Though she was brought up to be very eloquent, she is generally a rather silly and laidback person.
Appearance: Kairavi has fairly dark skin and long black hair, as well as dark brown eyes. She is relatively short, but she usually wears heels to compensate for that. Due to her wealth, she can afford elegant clothing, which she very much likes. Usually, she is dressed in purple dresses, since it's her favorite color. Her peacock Mark is on the back of her left hand, though she usually wears gloves over it.
Background: Kairavi's father is one of the High Preists of Corinthas. As such, she has been raised in splendor. Often times, she is forced to go to boring meetings and stand at the side of her father, which she tolerates without complaint. She is from the southern area of the continent, and she lives in a large temple to Corinthas. In her free time, she wanders the area, but she's never really been too far from home. As a daughter of a High Priest, she has been trained in magic for many years by the priests of Corinthas.
Text color: This purple
Note: Technically, she is not a princess, since the People of Light don't have princesses, just High Priests and High Priestesses, and their kids have no title until they inherit the position, but she has always fancied herself a princess, and the people even call her Princess Kairavi as well.

Name: Dierdra
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Element: Fire
Mark: Phoenix (She is not a Marked, however)
Personality: Very, very quiet. She speaks so little, most people think she's mute.
Appearance: Dierdra is rather short, and she appears to be much younger than she is. She has very long auburn hair, though it usually is concealed because she is virtually always wearing a long, deep red robe with the hood up. Her skin is incredibly pale due to the fact she stays out of the sun much more than most of the people of fire.
Background: Being born into one of the most powerful fire tribes with no Mark made life difficult for Dierdra. Even worse was the fact that she appeared to have no affinity for magic at all. One day, she got a hold of a crystal. Foolishly, she attempted to use the magic within, but it was too powerful for her. Her mind was ravaged by the magic, but, miraculously, she survived. She can still speak, but barely, and forming sentances is generally beyond her. Despite all of this, she is actually still attunted to the world around her.
Text color: Dark red

There's another character I might be playing as, but I'm trying to get PurplePrincess to play her.

I'll wait a bit and see if anyone else is interested (and if I can get PurplePrincess here), then get started.

[Salkium]

Background: He was raised in the sword and other fighting weapons and styles of techniques that he learned from his Grandfather and father. He's best weapon is his bare hands, but he was also taught how to use almost anything as a weapon. His mother died when he was 16, but he always stands alone to show respect to his mother. His father is also part of the High Priests, but Aquanta doesn't want to deal with politics or anything in that order. Aquanta does more with his actions then speaking, but when he does speak, people listen.
Text color: purple


Name: Eli Coluque
Gender: Female
Age: 20

[Saber Knight]

Okayso PurplePrincess isn't joining, she doesn't think she has the time, so I'mma whip up the bio and make the first post tomorrow.

Name: Caprice
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Element: Wind
Mark: Swift
Personality: Caprice is generally a very eager person. She is ambitious to get things done, and can be a bit impatient. However, she is very kindhearted and fiercely loyal and will always stay at the side of her friends.
Appearance: Caprice has shoulder-length relatively curly brown hair that is generally always a mess due to all of her wind magic. Her eyes are a striking blue. She is usually dressed in clothes suited for doing work, and she normally wears a dirty light blue tunic and brown pants with a tattered brown cape. She usually wears working gloves and boots, as well as leather braces on her arm for archery. At her side, she has a scabbard with a small dagger, and she also normally carries her bow and a few arrows. Her Mark of a swift is on her right ankle.
Background: Caprice was born a Daughter of the East Wind ((Does not mean she is literally a daughter of the current East Wind... just a saying)). She left her family at age 13 ((not uncommon for the Wind people)) to travel with Randolf, a master Wind Marked archer. As is common of the Children of Wind, she has traveled the continent. About a year ago, she met Princess Kairavi when Randolf was doing some work for her father, one of the High Priests of Light. Since then, they have been great friends. Currently, she resides in the Country of Light ((Because I'm too lazy to come up with a name!)) nearby Kairavi.
Text color:This kind of shade of blue here.

Just FYI, a common way to refer to the Wind People is the Children of Wind, and they are referred to as Sons or Daughters of the respective directional wind that they are affiliated with.

[Saber Knight]

((Okay, sorry for the major delay guys, but it's time to rock!

I feel like it would be kind of silly to have all our people travel together when they're located all over the continent, so I think I'mma try something different and let you guys be seperate with me messing around and throwing in some NPCs and such! Our characters will have to have an interaction somehow, but... we shall see! I've also decided to introduce Dierdra later since I've also got Caprice to RP now.

For now... time to rock and roll!))

FWWWWP!

"Aha! Bull's eye!" Caprice punched her fist in the air in joy. "Not bad, eh, Randolf?" He raised an eyebrow at her.

"Make that same shot twelve times in the next thirty seconds and then we'll talk," he said, cooly.

"Ah!" exclaimed Caprice, knowing he was dead serious. She quickly snatched an arrow from her quiver and placed it on the string. Drawing it back quickly yet carefully, she muttered, "Winds, guide my arrow," and then released the string. If one looked carefully, they could see a small gust of wind dancing around the arrow, causing it to fly forward at an accelerated rate. Not waiting to look to see if she had even hit her target, Caprice drew another arrow and repeated the process until her quiver was empty. When she looked at her target, she saw a cluster of arrows within a 3-inch radius around the center... and one arrow at the very edge of the target. She winced. "Shoot..." she mumbled. "Really thought I had it that time... S-sorry..."

"You're improving, though," remarked Randolf with a grunt. Caprice felt her face flush. That was as much as a compliment as you were going to get from Randolf.

"Oh! T-thanks!" was all she managed to say in reply. He grunted.

"I'm due to meet with the High Priest in an hour," Randolf informed her. "I need to prepare myself, so you're off early today." He waved his hand nonchalantly. "Go off and do whatever you see fit."

Caprice's eyes brightened. "Really? Thanks!" Running so fast her feet barely touched the ground (literally so), she recovered her arrows and returned them to the quiver. Just as fast, she was off.

--

Kairavi walked the vast halls of the temple with a smile upon her face. She greeted everyone she saw with a kind nod and a plesant "Hello!" She wasn't always given a response (especially by some of the newer servants who weren't familiar with the lack of formality she tended to show toward them), but that didn't especially trouble her.

She was making a special attempt to stay in good spirits due to the fact that she was off to yet another tiring meeting. She never got to contribute, she merely sat at her father's side as a gesture of formality. The talk was always boring, anywho. Regardless, she sat there and smiled, like a princess (the fact that she was not technically a princess did not trouble her) should.

In a few minutes, she had arrived at the meeting room. Quietly, she walked over to her father. They began as usual, with a drawn out prayer to Corinthas, and then they sat around the table, exchaged a few more meaningless formalites, and the meeting began.

"The movements of the Emperor of Darkness are troublesome," began her father. "I am sure he means to try and extinguish the holy light of Corinthas forever!"

"Lord Devanshu, you are headstrong as always," replied another man, "What gives you reason to think such treachery is a foot?"

"Corinthas sent me a vision... in it, the People of Light were surrounded by an encroaching darkness. The darkness then swept and took the light from the world!" When he had finished, a few people at the table began worridely mumbling amongst themselves. Even Kairavi was interested, for once. This seemed a little more serious than usual.

"What do you propose we do, Lord Devanshu?" asked a man.

"We cannot let the light be lost to the world to the hideousness that is the darkness. For long our forces have been fighting, but nothing above minor skirmishes anymore... They are going to make a move soon. Corinthas has told me this much... We should prepare our forces..."

And so the meeting continued.

((Introing the plot right from the beginning, whoo! Also, just to put it out there, this temple is located in the southern portion of the Country of Light.

FYI, spells are not in... I'm gonna use Common again. They're in another language, and the italics were used to denote it not being Common.))

[Salkium]

Dal'Quna stood as she walked around the house she had close to the outskirts of the city. She wasn't ready to go to the rock where she trained almost all day on her abilities, but that didn't matter. She took a few steps towards the door and heard talking outside.

[Aquanta]

Eli listened as the waves hit the rocks and the cool breeze blew through her hair. It was so hard to understand that the possible thoughts and feelings she had were over the edge. It wasn't that long ago when she tried so hard to move her body over the waves, but failed all the time. Yet she wasn't taught on how to. How could she when she know what to do.

"Damn, I hate my life sometimes," Eli thought as she tried harder and harder like her master told her to do to get the spell up. "I just can't do it, Master Thron."

"You can and you must. I know you can because your heart is pure but that mind needs to be clear to fully understand. Your mind is clouded and still going back in your memory to bring back the pain and the mistrust you endured."

"I know, I know. Just it's just impossible to get this down. I still don't have a symbol for doing magic at all. What am I to do?" Eli forced that smile she wanted to make all day, but she wasn't even working that hard, or hard enough to control the waves for protection.

"Just believe in the will to move the water with your mind, soul, and your heart. The real things in life are..."
Before he could finish what he wanted to say, Eli knew what the ending was. Without realizing it, "I need to believe in myself and the answer will come. I've heard this a lot of times master but its no use, I still am weak and will always be weak."

"Yes, and please don't speak to me without letting an old guy finish what he was going to say. Eli, come sit down." He took a few steps into the cool water and sit down, but the bubble he made protected his cloths from getting wet.

Sighing, Eli went to her master and tried the same thing. Instead she couldn't and the cold water licked at her butt.

"Eli, Free your mind. Listen to your heart, and feel the water all around you. Your able to control your powers even under pressure and that wouldn't change when your going to protect those that you love. Release your mind, feel the power of the waves, the air, the fluid inside your body. Those are the everlasting memories and knowledge you have to show your true power. Now go back into the water and practice. Every sound you hear, listen and move like the water."

Standing, Eli moved so slowly but she listened to what her master was saying, even if she was still thinking about other things besides the water.

"If you don't get it this time Eli, we will go for breakfast. Then we will try after your rested up."

"Yes master."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sitting by his father's side, at the temple of Corinthas, Aquanta moved across with his mind cleared. The prayer made him see that things were back to normal. He smiled as he stood up and bowed to the statue. His father, was one of the members of the high priests and as a son, Aquanta had to sit by him at the meeting. They were so so boring, and he had succeed to slip out and go back home before his father could stop him. But this time, he was walking in-front of his father and there was nothing he could do to get out of this.

Entering the meeting room, Aquanta went in, waited for his father to sit down and he then took his place right beside him. Aquanta wasn't happy to see anyone there but Kairavi. Her eyes were just like his, bored and not wanting to be there. But he sit down anyway and kept quiet.
