The Character Compilation Thread


***


With the coming of our first member-made RP in this new setup, I felt it was time that this thread returned too.

However, this time, seeing as the Boards will have only 6 RPs, I decided to have some organisation in this thread so as to serve multiple purposes.

Lessee then...!




Okay, the basics remain the same as the old thread where you used to submit your bios, but this time, please just mention what RP the bio is from. Why, you ask?

Here's why.

This thread will have a list of all RPs that exist in these boards and links to them as well. Under these names, your bios will be stored for when you want to refer back to them or want other RPers to see. For this reason, please mention the RP from which your bio is.

Okay, now for the loopholes.

Q. What if that RP ends up getting locked or deleted?
A. In the event that it does, which is most unlikely seeing as this new setup promises a flourishing RP society and ever-growing prospects, the links will stay. In the event that the RP gets deleted, the link will naturally shut down and if you have posted your bio here, it will be moved to the "Others" section for future use.

Mods & AKs, please edit as you see fit.

Q. What if I am too lazy to submit my bio here or mention the RP?
A. Ahahahaha..! No problem. I'll be keeping an eye out on all the RPs. If you forget to mention the RP, I'll check and move it under the RP's name. If you are too lazy to post it here, then I am sorry but I can't help you. Drawing links directly from the OOC Thread leads to a number of issues. For example, if the RP were to get deleted, the link to the bio will shut down leaving this thread with a number of faulty links. For the sake of archiving, please post a copy of your character bio here.

Q. What if we make it to a second thread of our RP?
A. Not to worry. I'll add a link to the Second Thread under the RP's name.

Q. Is it compulsory to post our bios here?
A. What? No. Not at all. If you don't want to post your bio here, then you don't have to. It's up to you.

Q. Can we make and post standalone bios here?
No. Just kidding. Of course you can. Use any format that you see as fit and convenient. However, if you are finding yourself incapable of making a Bio Format, please use the one provided here:

http://forums2.battleon.com/f/tm.asp?m=20908310&mpage=1

You may edit the Format as you please.


Q. Is this thread for discussions as well?
A. I am sorry but no. This thread is only for posting bios and for archiving them. Please make or use a separate thread for discussions.

Q. Will you be managing/be able to manage this thread?
A. Of course. It's my own undertaking, isn't it?
Plus, I haven't been approved as an RPer yet so I have a lot of time to work on this thread.
I hope the Mods don't have any problem with that.

Well, those were some FAQs, now, onto the real thing.




Given below is a list of all RPs that are there in these boards and listed under their names are all the bios that have been posted here. In the event that you want to search for anything in this section, press CTRL+F and type in the keywords on the search bar that pops up.

TJByrum -> RE: Character Compilation Thread[Please READ First Post] (4/26/2013 19:51:56)

Ruins of Paxia:
quote:

Name: Victus Arrelius
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 36
Physical Appearance: Picture. Victus stands 5'8 and has an athletic body build (not to muscular, but not to skinny either). He has Caucasian skin color, but his face and arms tend to stay tanned by being in the sun.

Armor: Victus wears a red traveler's robe over his body. He has burgundy leather boots underneath, as well a padded undershirt.
Weapons: Victus carries a psionic-charged shortsword. The shortsword's psionic properties allow it to be lighter and easier to wield.
Other: Victus has a leather belt around his waist.
Skills: Victus is agile, quick, and cunning.
Abilities: Victus is trained in the use of psionics (supernatural magic).
Hallucination - Victus can create an alternate image of himself. It looks exactly like him, and acts exactly like him and can even simulate conversations as Victus himself would. The image cannot physically harm anyone and will dissipate when 'injured', however most enemies become confused and are pressured into defending themselves when attacked by the apparition. This image can be re-summoned as soon as it is destroyed.
Confusion - Victus is able to boggle the mind of an opponent. For a few seconds they will become momentarily confused, lost, and dizzy, as if they have been stunned.
Siphon - If not performing strenuous actions, Victus is able to siphon the very stamina from a person's body, eventually draining them to the point of fainting. The Siphon ability would take about fifteen minutes for someone to pass out, and about eighteen minutes for a person to die. Below those timeframes, the person becomes increasingly tired. The siphoned energy can then be channeled into Victus himself, or cast at an ally to strengthen their abilities or revive them if they passed out.
Barrier - At it's most powerful and energy-consuming state, Victus is able to produce a spherical shield around himself and allies that wards off magical attacks. Otherwise he can form more weaker, smaller barrier-like force-fields in front of him to deflect melee attacks (this ability simply replaces my shield, a common piece of equipment I have in other RP's).

Morality: Good, however he may work alongside anyone given the benefits.
Plot Relation: Victus has come to Paxia to unite the clans and defeat the Beast. However he is somewhat ambitious and seeks further goals.
Personality: Victus is cunning and ambitious. He will do anything, kill anyone, and destroy whatever is in his way to achieve his goals, whatever they may be. However, given his carelessness for others, there may yet be honor within the man. He values his closest friends and will go out of his way to aid an ally, and even feels a sense of brotherhood alongside fellow warriors.
History:


The Tempest:
quote:

Name: Torik Valgard
Gender: Male
Age Range: 38
Race (Pure or halfbreed only): Human
Appearance (Build, hair, skin, clothes...): Torik is about six feet tall and has an athletic body build. He has black shoulder-length hair, usually rugged and rough, and he has a light stubble that he tries to keep shaved. He has dark blue eyes and fair skin. Torik's only armor is the light chainmail cuirass over his torso. He has a blue and white tabard over the chainmail, but it is tattered from years of wear and tear. He has light brown pants, a brown belt, brown boots, and brown gloves as well. He does not have a helmet, but he may pick up a spare one before entering a battle, however he normally ditches the helmet during or after the battle.
Belongings:
Steel shortsword - Exactly as the name suggests; it's a simple steel shortsword and is strong, durable, and easy to wield.
Round steel shield - Unique round steel shield. Originally given to him by his village chieftain, the shield has since been enhanced and is stronger, more durable, and lighter so he can wield it with great ease.

Personality: Torik is a warrior, and as such he places high values on noble, honor, and courage. He's friendly and is willing to help those in need, but he's quick to defend himself and his friends and refuses to become a pawn or a pushover. He understands the importance of teamwork and treats his allies with brotherhood-like characteristics. Torik is also strategically and tactically minded, and prefers to do things orderly and plan out strategies before fighting.
History: Torik was born in Asgeir, a land known to be cold, harsh, and dangerous. His mother was a crafter and his father a lumberjack. He was born and raised in a small village. Like all males in Asgeir, Torik was trained from a young age to fight by the village's men, and he became an exceptional fighter with a sword and shield. He helped his father chop lumber and firewood, and then became a full-time guard at age nineteen. Shortly afterwards, he was asked to be a full-time bodyguard for his chieftain, and traveled all across Asgeir and protected him from would-be assassins and mere bandit raids. For his services, the chieftain gifted Torik with a steel shield that had been passed down for generations in his family. Torik left his chieftain around age twenty-six and joined Asgeir's army. He participated in a bloody campaign against a rival kingdom, but Asgeir eventually succeeded and won the war. After the war, at age thirty-three, Torik then became a freelancer, doing various jobs and roaming Asgeir in search of work and adventure. His time as a bodyguard, his wartime efforts, and his freelance work had earned him quite a reputation in Asgeir. At age thirty-five he seemingly vanished and no one had seen or heard from him in over a year. In truth, he had been captured by an unknown group of strangers who revealed themselves to him as 'the Order'. The Order provided him with more training, as well as enhanced his shield to make it stronger, more durable, and lighter so it was easier to use. He refuses to answer or even acknowledge questions about his disappearance, but when he returned, Torik began to roam the lands outside of Asgeir. His travels brought him to the Badlands, where he hopes he can finally find rest, but little does he know the item he is after might be hidden there.

Skills, spells and abilities (Optional): Torik does not know any magical abilities. He doesn't really offer much to the table in terms of raw power. He is, however, very agile and quick and has been trained to use a wide assortment of melee weapons, and has shown a bit of talent in archery. Torik is not, by any means, the greatest warrior or fighter, but he can certainly hold his own in a battle.


I like the idea of such a thread, but I'd be unable to handle such task. If nothing else, we should let this serve as the new character bio thread.




Riffus Maximus -> RE: Character Compilation Thread[Please READ First Post] (4/27/2013 1:42:31)

I don't know if it would be better to out the link to the character's bio in the character's entry. It'll save space, I suppose, but I figure it'll be sort of tougher to read too.

Here's my character from Ruins of Paxia:
quote:


Name: Shilverase Kageyami
Image: Click on meh!
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Side: Good
Clan: Nocturu
Occupation/Class: Darkness Sorceress


Spells/Magical Skills:
With intensive training from a young age ever since she was able to use magic, Shilverase is one of the deadliest darkness spellcasters among Nocturu. Despite her young age, her mastery over Elemental Darkness makes her an incredible opponent. Given her prowess in magic, the young Nocturan can call upon a vast repertoire of dark-aligned spell, which can make her very versatile at all time. Despite such a variety of useful spells, they all share a common characteristic. In order to use her dark powers, Shilverase must draw power from surrounding darkness. Fortunately for her, even during daytime, the world provides enough shadows for her to effectively use most of her darkness spells. However, the darker her surroundings, the more potent her spells become, reaching their peak during nighttime. Instead of seeking and drawing energy from her inner self, and spontaneously use magic, Shilverase bends natural darkness to her will and draws power from it, hence the reason her spells grow more powerful the darker it is. By using this method of casting spells, Shilverase doesn’t deplete her spiritual reserve as the earlier way of using magic, which allows her to cast spells more often. The strongest flaw in this technique is how weak her magic is should she cast spells during daytime with little shadows around.

-Night Hunter: By gathering an enormous amount of darkness and surrendering her body and will to the darkness, Shilverase transforms into a darker version of herself. Since it is required to gather a significant amount of surrounding darkness, Shilverase can only use this ability at night (with almost no light present) or in unlit areas. The transformation remains even if light surrounds the dark mage. During this transformation, Shilverase’s physical and magical abilities are enhanced by a large margin. This ability is extremely costly to the body, cutting Shilverase’s lifespan by a year for each 5 minutes. She can only handle this dark transformation for 10 whole minutes, after which she is so mentally and physically exhausted she can barely walk and cast spells.

-Darkness Weapon: One of the only spells that don’t require darkness to be cast. Upon use, Shilverase summons a weapon of solidified darkness of her choice in her hands. The constant use of this spell, its simplicity and the required spiritual energy makes it literally an innate ability. A darkness weapon is sharper than conventional weapons, and more durable than most material. She can only have one Darkness Weapon at all time, unless the summoned weapon was has dual-wield property upon casting.


Height: 5'09’’ft.
Weight: 125 lb.
Complexion: Light-skinned
Hair Color: White
Eye Color: Purple


Likes: She prefers calm environments, sweets, cat, Darkness as well as full moons.
Dislikes:You can tell she doesn’t like sour things from the face she makes.

Personality: Shilverase is a quiet and reserved, though she is friendly and enjoy having a talk from time to time when someone approaches her gently. She loves her clan and devotes herself to keep it growing. She has little patience for those who are threatening her and Nocturu.

History: From a very young age, Shilverase was considered a Sorceress for her natural talent with magic. She had a rather lonely childhood due to her ability to use darkness magic, being shunned by most people and being taken care of by people who were interested in using her magic for their own gain.

Despite all this, when she grew of age to reason, she found out about Nocturu and their darkness-loving members. Hopeful to meet new people who would accept her for what she is and what she can do, she anxiously joined the Darkness clan. Like a beacon of light in her life, her hopes were found to be true as she was respected and loved by members of the dark community. She had a particular relationship with the Scion of Nightmares, called Max, who held an interest in her and treated her like no one has before. Having formed a trusty bond, Max made her his right-hand woman to carry on his duties should he someday disappear.

After the recent sneak attack on Nocturu by their own members, Shilverase entered in a righteous fury and took up arms to confront the Nocturan traitors and those who would oppose Nocturu.

Plot: Shilverase’s mentor and friend Max disappeared a short while before the attack on Nocturu happened. Thinking this is of no coincidence and something dire must’ve happened, Shilverase wants to further investigate what happened in Paxia, find out a way to return everything to normal, find her friend and bring him back to Nocturu. Being under the direct command of one of the most influential member in Nocturu, a lot of people followed her when it was time to take arms and head out to war. She is not a leader, but her very influence and benevolence towards her clan made her a lot of allies in Nocturu who would be willing to listen to her words.




Arthur -> RE: Character Compilation Thread[Please READ First Post] (4/27/2013 7:09:59)

@TJ, you can by all means use this thread to create standalone bios as well. It serves many purposes.




Okay guys, for all of you who are worrying. Posting in this thread is completely optional. No one is forcing you to post your bios here. Additionally, your bios will be added to the list only and only if you have posted your bios in this thread. If you have posted your bios in the RP OOCs without posting them here and expect them to show up in this thread list magically, then I am sorry but that will not happen. It is a breach of privacy and I am not willing to do it. It's a thread that we will mutually work out. Please don't worry about your privacy. Feel free. :)




Master K -> RE: Character Compilation Thread[Please READ First Post] (5/2/2013 19:31:28)

If the Assassin's Guild ever re-booted...

quote:

Name: Sermones Sua
Nickname: Sileo
Gender: Female
Age Range: 17
Race (Pure or halfbreed only): Human
Appearance (Build, hair, skin, clothes...):

Sermones is 5'11'', and has a thin frame, and has long blonde hair that is very well kept. She has soft green eyes, which have dashes of brown around the edges. She wears a faded black jacket, with a simple white shirt underneath. Her jacket has pockets for holding various things. She wears faded blue pants, which, surprisingly, don't hold any of her weapons. She is only slightly tanned, and has no distinguishing marks on her.

Belongings:

She travels light, but she has a few knifes within her jacket. All her knifes have blades which are about a foot in length. Her first knife is Medius, and is unremarkable in design. It's blade is also unremarkable, and is only straight. Her second is Tersus, which bears a blade that is curved. Her final blade is Ira, which bears a brutal, serrated blade. She also wears a pendant in the shape of an S, which is made of brass and is an inch in length.

Personality: She has dissociative identity disorder, but it isn't referred to like that. Most people tend to see rapid change with her personality. Sometimes shes relatively cheery, and is not afraid to talk. Her second personality is neutral, in which she shy's away from most people and doesn't really talk, except to close friends. Her final personality is moody, in which she is grouchy, and is not afraid to pick a fight and snap back at people. She switches between her alters often, although she tries to keep it under control the best she can.

History:

Sermones childhood was unremarkable, as she grew up in a fairly populated town. She had no siblings, just her parents. The only interesting trait about her was the fact of her developing multiple personalities. At age 13, she was sent to a school which acted as an asylum, taking in many troubled children who exhibited many different personality disorders and mental handicaps. Sermones resented the asylum, and did not get along well with many of the people, but got along with Celo, who she met after a year of being there. She lived there until she was 17, which was when she and Celo came up with a plan to escape the wretched prison that was designed to contain them. Celo created a potion to knock the guards out, and from there Sermones and him ran off. They had no choice but to flee the area entirely, as they were being looked for to be locked up again.

She considers Celo to be like a younger brother to her, due to her not having any real siblings.

Weaknesses: She is only human, so whatever can kill a human can kill her.

Skills, spells and abilities (Optional): She is very agile and nimble, and skilled with her knives. She has no magic, but would graciously like to learn.


quote:

Name: Celo Puerum
Nickname: Clamor
Gender: Male
Age Range: 14
Race (Pure or halfbreed only): Human
Appearance (Build, hair, skin, clothes...):

Celo is 5'7'', and is skinny, but not muscular. He wears a plain white button up shirt, and a ashen gray jacket over it. He wears faded blue pants. He is albino, so he has startling crimson eyes, and frighteningly white skin. He usually has a vacant look in his eyes, and tends to stare. He also has long, unkempt ivory hair, which is wavy and tends to curl up on the ends. Overall, his appearance is very light and faded.

Belongings:

He keeps a book in his jacket, which details various alchemical recipes. It is royal blue in color, and has faded yellow trim. Celo has a small dagger on his as well, which is about a foot in length, and is unremarkable. He keeps it for self defense; he won't use it unless necessary. He is only moderately decent with his knife fighting skill. He also wears a chain, which has a silver C on it, which is about an inch in size. He also has a three inch vial filled with a healing potion, and another vial of the same length half filled with a knock out potion.

Personality: Quiet. Very quiet. He barely speaks, and is quite introverted. He occasionally talks to people he's friendly with. He's quite smart, and enjoys alchemy and helping other people with it. He has a sense of humor as well, but doesn't joke around much.

History:

Celo grew up in a small town, as regarded as a vampire due to his albinism, dislike of light, and introverted personality. He grew up quite introverted, as nobody wanted to be around him, due to looking like some sort of monster. Before he was sent off to the asylum/learning center, he practiced alchemy, and enjoyed being sort of a healer, despite being shunned by others. He was sent off to the asylum when he turned eleven, and continued to learn alchemy. He was quiet and didn't associate with many people, except for a few, including Sermones, who became like a sister to him. When he turned fourteen, Sermones revealed that she wanted to escape the asylum. He learned a recipe for a potion that could knock out the guards, and slipped it into their food. He knocked out many others with it, but it caused enough of a distraction for him and Sermones to escape.

He is on the run with Sermones, who fits the role as an older sister to him.

Weaknesses: He is only human, so whatever can kill a human can kill him. He also has a weakness for light, especially bright light. A good flash can leave him reeling, and partially blinded for some time, depending on the intensity of the light.

Skills, spells and abilities (Optional): He is quick on his feet, and his alchemy skill allows him to do many things, such as heal, poison opponents, knock opponents out, ect...


I thought this would be an interesting duo. Their names and nicknames are Latin.
