This RP, while centered on Soul Calibur, only requires basic knowledge of the game. Additional content can be found in a link further down the page and I will gladly answer any question. Don't be afraid to ask, no question is too stupid for me.

The Tale Which is Eternally Retold (click to showhide)

Long ago, man created a sword. It was used to slay thousands upon thousands of men. As a result of being covered in blood and being used by warriors filled with hatred, the sword soon grew a soul of its own. That sword is called Soul Edge. The soul it had acquired, which called itself Inferno, was pure evil. This made Soul Edge corrupt the souls of whoever grasped its hilt. The first known bearer of this sword was The Hero King, Algol. His will was so strong that he was able to overpower Inferno and he was able to wield it properly.

However, his son, Arcturus, was jealous of his father's power and stole Soul Edge from him, instantly getting consumed by the blade. Algol, being a good king, tried freeing his son from the Cursed Blade's influence. He succeded, but at the price of his son's life. The Cursed Blade broke after the fight and Algol, who had sworn revenge against the sword, used the fragments from the sword, which he purified, and created Soul Calibur. He only managed to do so after many failed attempts and, once again, the result wasn't as he had expected. He died in the process and the sword was very similar to Soul Edge. Therefore, his tribe worked together to purify the sword, eventually turning it into the well-known Spirit Sword.

Many, many years later, Siegfried Schtauffen acquired Soul Edge, which spawned the event called "The Evil Seed", which was a bright burst of light as the Cursed Blade itself accepted the man as its rightful owner. The Evil Seed caused many people across the land to go insane and murder others savagely. Siegfried was eventually corrupted by the Cursed Blade, eventually becoming the monstrosity that was Nightmare. During a battle against Raphael Sorel, Nightmare suddenly became immobile. Siegfried was fighting Nightmare in his mind. Raphael, using all his willpower and what little strength he had left, unleashed a final attacked and pierced the center of Soul Edge, making Nightmare roar in pain and weakening him greatly. Siegfried seized the opportunity and vanquished Soul Edge's emprise on him as the French noble lost consciousness.

The Cursed Blade wasn't completely eradicated though. Zasalamel, a man who was cursed with eternal life, noticed this and, in an attempt to end his curse, revived Nightmare as a completely sentient being. Since he wasn't in a host's body, his mutation advanced even more quickly. The two clashed again and the raw energy actually revived Algol himself, who created the Tower of Rememberance. His desires were simple: take back Soul Calibur and Soul Edge to stay alive and be the king of the world, just like he formally was.

This plan, like his two former plans, failed and Nightmare actually succeeded to kill both Algol and Siegfried, having become more powerful than the two warriors. His victory was short lived though, as Zasalamel managed to kill him. Since that time, the Cursed Blade and the Spirit Sword have been dormant...

Until recently. Around 50 years after Nightmare's death, a young man found the remaining shards of the Cursed Blade, which was dramatically weakened. Its power was strong enough to slightly corrupt him, making him search and find the other pieces of Soul Edge. Being as reckless and loud-mouthed as he was, everyone quickly learned of his antics.

A few years later, he had many shards of Soul Edge, which was growing more powerful. He slowly but surely became corrupted, eventually wielding a huge demonic sword much like Nightmare did, albeit an even more brutal one. He has been heard saying that whoever joined him would benefit from his power, and that whoever opposed him would be fed to the Cursed Blade.

Naturally, people joined him and people opposed him while some simply pursued a personal goal. Nonetheless, it has almost become a war, with a few names standing out. Instead of armies though, it's more of a war between many small groups, all with particular goals. Whether it be to rule the world, test their strength or simply protect their country. His name was Colin Powell.

And now, the tale of souls and swords which is eternally retold goes on...

How to Keep your Soul Pure and Healthy (click to showhide)

1. All GTS+ roleplay and forum rules apply.

2. Being literate is important. Typos are acceptable but please try your best to use grammar, punctuation, layout and spelling properly for the sake of the other players.

3. Short posts are acceptable as long as they are critically relevant - posts should be at least five sentences long whenever it's possible.

4. Be as descriptive as possible!

5. You can have as many characters as you want... just don't go overboard and don't put 'em all in the same group. I have the right to tell you that you have enough characters. Also, make sure you can keep up with your characters.

6. Try to keep it PG-13... Blood, swearing and romance to be used in moderation.

7. Put the name of Soul Edge's First Bearer's son in the appropriate section of your sign-up so I know you read the rules and the plot.

8. No killing other people's characters, of course. (Unless you have some kind of crazy resurrection plan...)

9. Please, don't post right when someone posts after you. Let everyone post at their own pace. At least give people some time to post. Also, be sure to tell people in this thread when you are writing a post so you don't write it only to be beaten by another RPer, which could ruin your post. Also, respect the RPer who takes his time to post and give him or her the time they need.

10. I have the right to refuse a profile if the grammar of the RPer is not good enough for me (I doubt that will happen though. ). I want decent RPers.

11. Please, be patient, people (including me *gasp*) have lives and may not have time or the inspiration to post, say, five times everyday. Furthermore, some people like having detailed posts (like me) and have to work on it a bit. Also, most of us will probably have school too, so patience is a must.

12. Even if another member posts a big post, please read it completely and do not ignore it. They have put time and effort into it, so they wouldn't want that work to be wasted. I'm sure you wouldn't like that either. Same goes for small posts. If, however, you simply cannot manage to do a decent post with what was given, then just kindly tell the RPer to make their post bigger or to add more info in it.

13. If you want your character to be the leader, princess, prince, w/e of a kingdom, you can. However, it must be a fictional kingdom, for example, Wolfkrone, and you must state where it is located.

14. If you plan on joining, make sure that you will actually have time to be active here. Having people drop out in the middle of the RP, quite frankly, sucks. Activity decrease should be notified in the OOC thread.

Got all that? Still interested? Cool! Then just fill out this nifty little thing to the best of your ability.

Your Guide to Being a Knight (click to showhide)

CODE

[b]Name:[/b] First and last name; middle names optional. Make the names fit their nationality. Also, if, for example, your character is Japanese, put their last name before their first name. (Like Heishiro Mitsurugi, for example. His first name isn't Heishiro; it's Mitsurugi.)

[b]Nickname(s):[/b] Any nickname your character may have - n/a if he or she has none. (For example, Ivy was but a nickname for Isabella)

[b]Age:[/b] Anywhere over 13. Exceptions may be allowed if you have a good reason.

[b]Gender:[/b] 'It' is also acceptable as a gender if you've been corrupted by Soul Edge (Nightmare) or have been created by other means than natural human birth (Astaroth). Yes, this means that you can be from an alternate dimension (needs a very good reason) or even an android (Ashlotte).

[b]What Color is Your Soul?:[/b] Blue (Good). Red (Evil). White (Neutral). You choose.

[b]Birthplace:[/b] Where is your character from? No America or Australia. You don't have to be precise, but it would be nice, I guess. For the sake of simplicity, put the modern name. Please.

[b]Occupation:[/b] Does your character have a job? (For example, Sophitia was a Baker, Cervantes was a Pirate and Ivy was an Alchemist.)

[b]Weapon:[/b] Simple. State what your character's weapon is. No guns, please. If you can find a picture, great. If not, then try to describe it.

[b]Appearance:[/b] Be descriptive, include clothes and any items your character may carry with them. At least a paragraph - pictures are acceptable but a written description is still needed.

[b]Personality:[/b] Any character trait, strength or weakness, likes and dislikes, be sure to mention it all here. At least a paragraph.

[b]Biography:[/b] Your character's past, any major events, family life, occupations, etc. At least a paragraph. The story starts in the cursed city of Ostrheinsburg, so finish this when your character arrives there. If Good, how did they learn about the new Nightmare's antics and why do they want to stop him? If Evil, how did they learn about the new Nightmare's antics and why do/did they want to join him? If Neutral, simply state their thoughts on the current situation.

[b]Read the Rules?:[/b] Then prove it.

[b]Others:[/b] Anything else? If you've been mutated, corrupted or are being used as a host for Soul Edge, please mention if it gave you powers. (For example, Nightmare could make himself explode with evil energy; Raphael and Amy basically became vampires, Voldo seemed to have no bones and Cervantes could teleport and float around.)

The allegiance is simply to indicate the nature of your character's goals and intentions. Two characters on the Good Side can hate each other and even fight regularly. A Good character may also kill other Good characters (NPCs of course) if their goals and intentions leads them to do that. Same goes with Evil characters. Neutral characters have no particular allegiance, so they can help Good and Evil characters as they see fit. They can be friends with Evil characters but not share their goals, intentions, etc.

Your character may change allegiances throughout the story. However, if you plan on making them switch between Evil and Good repeatedly, you're better off making them Neutral. If your character comes in contact with Soul Edge, they are expected to get corrupted a bit. They cannot be like Algol and resist its influence completely.

Those with fragments of Soul Edge can talk to Inferno, who will mostly feign helping them in their goals and lead them to the sword itself. When Soul Calibur is introduced, the characters that comes in contact with it will also be able to talk to the spirit inside it. Soul Edge is to be refered to as a male and Soul Calibur as a female. Soul Calibur, as opposed to Inferno, is genuinely nice and generally speaks great words of wisdom, usually in cryptic messages. She does have a slight sense of humor though.

Being in contact with either Soul Edge itself or one of its fragment can lead to many things. First, the Cursed Blade may corrupt your mind into making you find more fragments to revive itself. A change in personality, such as cockiness or becoming more violent can be observed. Prolonged exposure to multiple fragments can corrupt the mind further, such as bringing insanity (Tira, for example, developped a split personality), and can start making the body mutate, such as growing a bigger, spiked arm (like Nightmare), changing your skin's color (Necrid) or make stranger changes (becoming a vampire, like Raphael and Amy is an example). If Soul Edge ever chooses you as its host (it can have multiple hosts, as seen by Nightmare, Cervantes and Tira), it will continually bug you to harvest souls, which can only be done by killing people. The stronger the victim is, the most satisfying the soul will be. However, since Soul Edge can never be truly satisfied, it will always ask for more souls. This can easily drive someone to insanity.

If you aren't used to the world of Soul Calibur, use http://soulcalibur.wikia.com/wiki/Soulcalibur_Wiki to help you. You can make your characters the descendants of existing characters if you want, but that's your problem since you need to make the stories connect and all that.

Who's Soul Has Survived the Test of Time? (click to showhide)

Some of the original characters are still alive. I shall be the one who controls them BUT you can ask me for permission, whether it be permanent or temporary, since I'll primarly use them to make some action.

Astaroth
Cervantes
Charade
Lizardman
Olcadan
Talim
Voldo
Yoshimitsu
Yun-Seong
Zasalamel

They are basically thought of as legends. The rest are dead. (However, you may request for some characters to be alive, though I'll need a reason.)

Who Are The Valiant Souls?

Good (click to showhide)

Ideki Emiko (Darkrow) (click to showhide)

Name: Ideki Emiko

Nickname(s): Crusher Kunoichi, Emi, Emi-Chan (by Mayumi), Emi-Sensei (by Mayumi), Sensei (by Mayumi)

Age: 20

Gender: Female

What Color is Your Soul?: Blue

Birthplace: Aomori, Japan

Occupation: Kunoichi, Demon Huntress and Historian.

Weapon: A gigantic hammer with a face and a spiked handle. Can talk and is named Hakaishi. Emiko also has access to many traditional ninja weapons, such as shurikens, kunais, ropes and smoke bombs.

Actually, Hakaishi is a demon that Emiko sealed inside a giant hammer, which effectively made the hammer alive. Hakaishi, while wise, acts extremely silly and doesn't like cooperating with his "master" unless threatened or if she's in danger. He taunts everyone, including Emiko, often and likes killing people. Sadly for him, Emiko doesn't.

He's very whiny and complains about anything and everything, which often leads to some fairly comical arguments between him and Emiko. He seems to have a strong dislike of Mayumi too, liking to annoy her and frequently insulting her, which usually leads to Emiko scolding him.

However, he does care for Emiko to an extent and he knows her well, well enough to know what she's thinking most of the time. Also, Emiko, despite the fact that he annoys her, still considers him as a friend and is attached to him in a way. He's also prone to worry about her well-being during fights.

Appearance: http://i799.photobucket.com/albums/yy280/XMMR/Anime%20Characters/821247a98d562e91be537406a2a90f8259b.jpg is a very tall girl, being 7'2" and weighing around 250 pounds, most of it being muscle, as seen by her ability to fling her gigantic weapon around with ease. She has black braided hair and pale blue eyes. She has a bit of eye shadow around her eyes, but it's mostly for show. She has a red headband with a yellow design too.

She wears a dark red shirt with a lot of armor, which is similar to a samurai's even though she's a kunoichi. Her left shoulder pad is blue and her right one is red. She has a long armored glove on her left arm and a normal one on her right arm. She has a red fauld tied around her waist and has many kunai packs on it, which she can use rather skillfully.

Her lower wear consists of dark green checkered hakama that are slit on the inside of her legs, revealing her black underwear. The border of her red spiky boots can also be seen. Her boots are made of steel, of course, and the tip of the foot is pointy.

Personality: Emiko is usually very serious and strict, rarely even cracking a smile in normal circumstances. She also tends to be silent and to keep things to herself, which may annoy people she doesn't know well. The reason, however, is simple: she knows that if she talks too much she may hurt someone's feelings by accident, so she prefers staying silent and only saying what she deems to be necessary.

Most of the time though, Emiko, despite her silence, is quite nice and helpful, often using her herculean strength to help her friends or people in need. She also seems permanently calm and serene, even when fighting a powerful opponent. In fact, she very rarely manages to get stressed so when she is nervous you know that something's wrong.

She isn't the kind to tell jokes and she has a dry sense of humor. However, she will chuckle at jokes other tell, although she'll rarely laugh out loud unless she's in a wonderful, ecstatic mood. If she's in said mood, she'll always have a wide smile on her face and will generally be more talkative than usual.

Emiko's silence can make it hard to discern her emotions. Her facial expression will stay mostly the same throughout both anger and sadness, although her eyes will probably reflect her current state of mind quite clearly. Mayumi and Hakaishi, however, can easily distinguish her emotions, the latter sometimes guesses wrong though. Also, her tone will change slightly depending on how she feels. She'll be a bit more dry if angry and a bit more hesitant when sad.

She tends to be sarcastic most of the time though and may come off as rude to some people, something she more often than not doesn't mean to do. She's also fairly blunt and doesn't seem very good at socializing, another thing that makes her come off as rude sometimes. She usually goes straight to the point and doesn't dance around the subject.

A good thing about Emiko, however, is that she is honest and loyal. She will never lie, no matter how hard it is, since, after all, lying only leads to more trouble. Also, she will stay loyal to her friends to the very end unless they betray her, in which case they're probably screwed and will probably die squished by Hakaishi.

When saddened, the Crusher Kunoichi will do her best to avoid eye contact and restrain tears. She can get very emotional at times, so her eyes may get watery from time to time. When she cries for real though, she usually walks away from whoever is there to be alone. This is because she is a bit prideful and doesn't want to hurt her reputation.

Emiko rarely gets angry. Instead, she gets either annoyed or disappointed, depending on the situation. However, when she does get angry, stay outta way. She will still be silent, but any slight comment will earn you a wonderful punch in the face and, if you continue even though your nose is broken, a good swing from Hakaishi. She can't control her strength when angry and surely a few trees will be snapped in half. Although she's almost always calm, it's very hard to calm her down when angered, ironically. She tends to hold vicious grudges too. Also, while she's usually polite, Emiko will start using coarse language more and more as she gets annoyed and, eventually, angered.

Her best friend is Mayumi, as shown by the fact that the two are almost always together. She's the more calm, level-headed one of the Kunoichi duo, although she can be funny if given the chance to. It's a different kind of funny than Mayumi though which, along with Hakaishi's silliness, makes a pretty amusing combination.

She cares deeply for Mayumi and treats her like a sister. She's the one who keeps her in check and makes sure she doesn't cause too much trouble. She has given her the permission to call her "Emiko" or just "Emi", but the stubborn Mayumi refuses to, much to her slight annoyance. Since she never gave her permission to stop using honorifics after her name, she still calls her "Mayumi-Chan".

Even though she has noticed that her friend has had a strange change of behavior lately, she still hasn't voiced her observations, not deeming it to be needed right now. However, she frequently needs to calm the (much) shorter girl often, which she is quite good at. Deep inside, she's suspecting that something might be wrong with her, but keeps denying it, thinking that it's "just a phase she's going through". She tends to be a slight worrywart when it comes to Mayumi too.

Her relationship with Hakaishi is a bit shaky. While they argue a lot and the talking hammer is generally annoying her, they do dare some kind of bond. Sometimes they hate each other and sometimes they need each other. In a fight though, they both ditch the bitching and work together almost flawlessly. Emiko usually holds Hakaishi so that he can see behind her and alert her if someone tries to attack her from behind. They are a deadly team which, combined with the wonderful archer that is Mayumi, makes the Kunoichi duo very hard to beat, especially when together.

Emiko dislikes fighting and only fights when needed, unlike Mayumi and Hakaishi, who try to pick fights with others sometimes. She has very good knowledge of history and knows a lot about what has happened during the conflict between Siegfried and Nightmare and often talks about it. More often than not though, she confuses people when she does.

She has the habit of watching birds and sitting under trees to relax in her free time. Birds even seem to like her and find her presence calming, therefore they don't flee from her and don't attack either. She can even tell if someone is around or the general aura of an area just by seeing if there are birds around or their reactions. She seems to like nature too, since she dislikes killing animals and always mentally scolds herself when she destroys trees when angered. She greatly enjoys reading in her free time too.

Biography: Born in Aomori, Japan, Emiko was the daughter of two ninjas, which was similar to her friend Mayumi. She was always fascinated by the world of weapons, mythology and history. She and Mayumi became quick friends, even being neighbors, and they spent most of their time playing ninjas, knights and warriors with sticks. Also, as surprising as it may sound, Emiko was actually shorter than Mayumi as a child.

When she wasn't spending time with her neighbor, who she considered a sister, she was learning about either demons, monsters or the history of Soul Edge and Soul Calibur. She was fascinated by those things and was considered weird for liking history. She didn't care though, and continued learning. She wasn't as much of a handful as her neighbor, she was more of a quiet child that read silently in her room, not disturbing anyone.

At 12, she and Mayumi officially started their Kunoichi training. By that time, Emiko was already much taller than Mayumi and her parents, which was quite an amazing sight. She was taught the art of using Kuji-In, kunai, shuriken, swords, smoke bombs, daggers, staves and spears along with being stealthy and silent, the latter wasn't a problem, of course. This was very tough for the young girl, as she also wanted to learn, so she forced herself to stay up multiple days without sleeping, which soon developped into her insomnia.

Similarly to Mayumi, she soon stopped using the traditional ninja weapons to use a large hammer which, with her amazing strength, she could fling around effortlessly. However, unlike her friend, she didn't completely stop using the weapons and still has some with her. While Mayumi became a blacksmith, she continued learning about history and demons.

After two years, when both her and her "sister" were 14, they were both seperated to hone their skills and while Mayumi stayed home, Emiko had gone to explore Japan. Emiko, during that time, hunted demons and sealed quite a lot into objects she had with her. A noticeably strong one was defeated by her through intellect though, since brute force didn't work. She sealed him into her hammer, having run out of objects. The demon, named Hakaishi, was so powerful that he became the hammer. While, at first, Emiko was surprised and, quite honestly, frightened, Hakaishi accepted his fate and actually offered to help her in her "quest". The Crusher Kunoichi, while doubtful, accepted the offer.

And it paid off, the two formed a powerful, albeit slightly argument-happy, team and hunted many, many demons across Japan. They learned to know each other and became friends, although they argued and bitched often at each other. Emiko often lost her cool at him, but she learned to control herself and remain calm in almost any situation, so she owes the demon one. Some demons almost managed to defeat her while some barely had time to move.

The whole "training" took two years, so she came back to Aomori with Hakaishi when she was 16. She was welcomed by an ecstatic Mayumi. Emiko had grown a lot during her journey, now being almost two feet taller than Mayumi. She introduced Hakaishi to her and let's just say that their relationship didn't start quite well since they both started yelling at each other.

Soon after she came back, Mayumi wanted to create a bow, but she also liked swords. Emiko then proposed for her to combine a sword and a bow to make an unique weapon. Her friend instantly and gleefully accepted the idea and had created the powerful Yamiyo in a matter of days. It was then that Mayumi seemed to change a bit, although Emiko didn't comment on it. Since Mayumi had stayed in Aomori to train her blacksmith skills along with her kunoichi skills while Emiko had gone to hunt demons, Emiko was now "better" than Mayumi, in a sense. However, with the addition of Yamiyo, it was safe to say that they were equal.

For the next two years, Emiko continued studying history along with training. She learned a lot about Soul Edge and Soul Calibur that time, moreso than her previous studying sessions, which were more general. This time, it was precise information with detailed description of each sword. It was actually a book written by Isabella Valentine, who was often called Ivy, so she ignored the alchemy stuff.

A year later, when her 20th birthday was approaching, she heard rumors about the pieces of Soul Edge being found by a man named Colin Powell. She went on a small journey to see if it was true. She found an old man that seemed to be quite wise and he confirmed the rumors with proof, all leading towards Ostrheinsburg. A herd of Lizardmen had attacked multiple kingdoms, leaving some completely destroyed, rumors of the Black Giant resurfacing were starting to be heard and some otherworldly creatures were sighted, like Voldo.

She went back to Aomori after two days and decided to learn about Ostrheinsburg more. Known as the Cursed City, Ostrheinsburg was the hideout for Nightmare and it seems shrouded in pure evil energy. Logically, if Soul Edge was being reawakened, it would wish to go back to its old "home", so the new Nightmare would probably settle there. Not wanting another monster to come back, the Lizardmen, the Black Giant and Voldo were more than enough along with the multiple demons prowling the land, Emiko decided to go to Ostrheinsburg.

To her surprise though, Mayumi begged her to come, which was strange since she normally wouldn't want to go there and would beg for Emiko not to go there since it was dangerous. At first, the strict Emiko refused, but she eventually gave in and accepted Mayumi's company. Hakaishi, of course, didn't want her to come, but he was ignored as usual.

So they set out towards the Cursed City of Ostrheinsburg, where not even wild animals dare enter...

Others: Emiko is able to use Kuji-In techniques, although they greatly drain her of her energy. Therefore, she uses them sparingly. Despite wielding Hakaishi as her main weapon, being disarmed isn't a problem with her. She is a skilled martial artist, being able to defeat people with swords while disarmed. She can also wield multiple weapons quite efficiently, like kunai, shuriken, swords, daggers, staves and spears. However, she is much, much stronger and comfortable when using Hakaishi. She also dislikes being compared to the legendary Taki, Astaroth or Rock. She seems to have insomnia. Is currently with Mayumi.

Trofim Halak (Darkrow) (click to showhide)

Name: Trofim Halak

Nickname(s): The Grey Giant. He is not related to Rock or Astaroth, he is simply named that for his large size and grey hair.

Age: 75.

Gender: Male.

What Color is Your Soul?: Blue.

Birthplace: Ufa, Republic of Bashkortostan, Russia.

Occupation: Poet.

Weapon: Steel gauntlets with claws. Most of the time, he doesn't even need to use them. The claws, while only a few inches long, can be retracted at will. Named Sila.

Appearance: http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs51/i/2009/328/2/2/Old_angry_man_by_Brolo.jpg may be old, but the mere sight of him might scare some people. He's 7' tall and weighs around 424 pounds of muscle. Quite a frightening sight indeed. His eyes are brown and his hair is, obviously, grey. It's a bit long and curly and the same could be said about his beard, which is the length of his neck. He has a scar above his left eyebrow and a small one on his nose.

Trofim's entire body is worthy of a modern day's bodybuilder; you can see his veins pop out when he tenses up. His very defined muscles, complete with a wonderful six-pack, are covered with small scars from previous fights from men and animal alike. He wears a very loose red cloak with no hood and a black and yellow rim. However, he tends to only wear the right sleeve and let the rest hang down. It is tied to his waist by a black and white rope. His rope belt also has long yellow and black flaps. His weapon is often tied to his belt by a string.

For lower wear, he wears black pants held by his rope belt. His legs have bigger scars than his upper body. One on his right thigh is so disgusting that he actually bandaged it. He wears sandals with yellow shin protectors.

Personality: Trofim's appearance betrays his amusing personality. He makes a lot of jokes, laughs often and likes to drink. Needless to say, he's quite the fun old man to have around. He likes to tease people with his size, but it's obvious that he's not serious. In fact, he rarely is serious, being a goofy idiot most of the time, his Russian accent and distinctive speech pattern only making him seem sillier.

He's a kind old man at heart and he likes joking about stereotypes, such as how old people will eternally ramble about boring stories. It shows that he knows how to laugh at himself and he wants people to learn how to make fun of themselves. He has the habit of calling his friends "brother" or "sister", depending on their gender. In fact, he only calls people by their names if he's being formal. He may also had their surname or family name to this "title". The only one he calls by her name all the time is his maid, Naomi Kobayashi, who accompanies him everywhere. The two are very close despite the age difference and consider each other as family.

Very protective of Naomi, he will go to great lengths to protect her or save her. He also shows a lot of worry when she goes missing. This is probably because she's the daughter he never had and dreamed of having. As such, he takes good care of her and actually finds it awkward that she decided to be his maid and assistant, making their relationship a strange, yet very strong, one.

A likeable big man, people will rarely find Trofim mean or annoying since he's just too nice with people. He knows how to use his herculean strength to help people and only uses it to hurt people when he fights. He has control over his strength, so he won't accidently hurt someone. He is polite upon first meeting him and will quickly become the foolish and funny old man he really is. He doesn't take insults to others lightly, yet doesn't care for being insulted himself. Probably because people are rarely foolish enough to taunt a man of his size.

No matter how nice and funny Trofim is, he does have a more serious side, though it rarely shows. He'll often stroke his beard with his index and his thumb and that grin of his will disappear. Here, he won't tolerate foolishness since he'll only be serious in important situations. He'll speak louder to make himself heard loud and clear.

Being a poet, he has a few poetic moments that he'll just have to say. He can be a bit depressed when reminded of family and such, but he can live with it. He'll just look a bit saddened and nostalgic. He's good at giving advice due to his advanced age and he tries to help as much as he can.

His angry side is not something you want to see, even though he'll only lash out at who angered him. He almost literally becomes a monster and will go on a frightening, yet silent rage. He won't say anything, letting his actions speak for themselves. In this state, Naomi is the only one able to calm him down, but it takes time and he'll still stay annoyed.

Biography: Born in Russia in a moderately wealthy family, Trofim has experienced the time when Nightmare was alive. He has also experienced The Evil Seed, which drove his parents insane and resulted in them killing each other. Trofim was 18 at that time and was already quite the tall young man, being 6'5" at that time. He would grow an additional seven inches over the following years.

Fearing for his life, the young Trofim traveled to Japan, hoping that he would get protection there from whatever had caused the bright light to erupt into the sky. He lived in a small inn for a while, having nightmares about his parents every night. His paranoia drove him to train to be strong enough to protect himself since he was tall but lanky and weak. However, his fears became reality as the Azure Knight attacked the small village he had settled in.

He was 23 when this happened. He had grown a lot stronger and much more courageous, yet the sight of the Azure Knight paralyzed him with fear. Luckily, the young man was hiding and Nightmare hadn't seen him. This had been the scariest thing he had to live through; seeing the Azure Knight glance at the destroyed village, searching for survivors to satisfy his insatiable thirst for souls.

Two years later, news that Soul Edge and Soul Calibur were lost arrived, relieving him greatly. He then traveled around Europe to train and strengthen his body, of which the results can clearly be seen today. He was known by the Japanese citizens as The Grey Giant. It was a bit strange how a Russian man ended up living in Japan and ended up being known and respected by them instead of being rejected and feared.

The next interesting event happened when he was 70 years old. An inn had been attacked by bandits and Trofim, being near the dramatic event, went to help. He saved a lot of people, including a young 13 year old girl named Naomi Kobayashi. Her parents had died in the fire and Trofim felt pity for the heartbroken girl, so he offered for her to stay with him until she felt better.

It turns out that she liked the old man's company and decided to stay with him to help him as much as she could to return his niceness. The two grew close and Trofim eventually became her adoptive father. As five more years passed, Trofim heard some news that frightened him to the core: Soul Edge was back, apparently. He had told the story to Naomi, so she was afraid too. The Russian man was terrified at the idea of a new Nightmare prowling the land.

Therefore, he and Naomi both head for Ostrheinsburg in the hopes of stopping this new menace. Trofim may be old, but his time is far from over.

Others: His alcohol tolerance level is extremely high, resulting in him never getting drunk. He sometimes has violent nightmares too.

Larke Eischer (Darkrow) (click to showhide)

Name: Larke Eischer

Nickname(s): N/A

Age: 16

Gender: Female.

What Color is Your Soul?: Red.

Birthplace: Ilanz, Surselva, District of Graubaüden, Switzerland

Occupation: None.

Weapon: A fancy sword with no name infused with a large number of Soul Edge fragments. She also has two ten feet long chains that she wraps around her arms.

Appearance: http://static.zerochan.net/full/47/14/68247.jpg is rather thin and short, being only 110 pounds despite being 5'6". She has short purple hair with a long fringe and even longer sidelocks. Her eyes are crimson. She wears a blood red flower with a large flowy ribbon attached to it on the side of her head. She also has a purple and red choker along with two red pearl necklaces, one slightly longer than the other.

She wears a beautiful purple and white dress with many elaborate details. Frills, complicated designs and such can be seen on her dress. She wears sleeves that aren't a part of her dress, therefore, they stop at her upper arm. They are flowy and darker than her dress and much simpler in design. She also keeps her nails long and paints them purple.

While her dress reaches her shins, she still wears black panties (duh) and long purple socks with a floral design on them. They reach her thighs. She wears high heels, purple of course, as footwear, boosting her height to 5'8".

Personality: Most of the time, Larke is apathetic and doesn't really care about what's going on around her. She will find almost everything mundane and without interest, resulting in her being trapped in what seems to be eternal boredom. Due to this, she yawns often and always seeks to be entertained, which often, if not always, fails. Even in life threatening situations she'll be yawning and be bored. During discussions, she is not afraid to speak her mind and even walk away if she deems it too boring.

In an often futile attempt to kill her boredom, she has the tendency to taunt people in order to get them to snap or to argue. As seen by her fighting style, she is also very disrespectful, not even respecting Inferno himself. There are slight hints that she may even hate herself, though she generally sees herself as superior to others. Either of these could be true.

Larke, while lacking most emotions in most occasions, tends to be rather unlikeable due to her taunts and snarky comments. She is also highly sarcastic and has what you may call a dry sense of humor. Furthermore, nothing seems to scare her and she can face the most dangerous of threats calmly, which is a great asset because her calmness can help her make wiser decisions.

Very calm and relaxed, Larke always seems to have something to say when someone insults her or talks to her. However, she has a peculiar hate of people, so she'll be silent unless spoken to and is very antisocial. In fact, she could be described as socially awkward since she has no idea on how to comfort someone. Not like she would, but still. She also doesn't seem to care about anyone other than herself.

Unmatched in sword fighting, Larke takes pride in her skills. As shown by how she wiped out an entire village by herself at a young age, you could say that Larke has a good reason to be prideful. Along with her eternal boredom, she seems to have a lust for power, as shown by how she stole a sword simply to have power. Some Soul Edge followers probably fear her for that reason or because they fear her attacking the leader. However, Larke is somewhat content with her current situation, so it's alright.

Most of the time, Larke's voice is dull and monotone, which goes well with her emotionless, yet freaky, icy eyes. Due to all the souls she absorbed thanks to her sword, she has extreme skills in using many weapons, though her sword remains her weapon of choice. She also seems to get flustered or annoyed whenever someone tries to take her sword away, as she is very possessive of it.

She is extremely sadistic and loves seeing people hurt, physically, mentally or both; her being the cause of it makes it even better. She considers screams to be melodious and soothing, even though they obviously aren't. It's often thought that Larke has a twisted of reality to hide from her still unknown fears (except one that is known) and that she is highly delusional at times.

If you manage to stump her or bug her enough, she will snap. And at those times, hell, you better be a fast runner. She will scream at you and become amazingly bloodthirsty, becoming hell-bent on torture the crap out of you and make you suffer. In her rage, she will also drink your blood and enjoy it greatly. Her explosive usually causes her to have splitting headaches immediately after calming down thanks to The Vengeful Ones.

Larke is continuously tormented by The Vengeful Ones, who are an amalgamation of all the souls of people she killed with her sword. Obviously, these souls want to torment Larke enough to make her snap, make rash decisions and eventually die, which would let them rest in peace. However, Larke prefers to let people rest in pieces and has, so far, managed to resist and survive. The more people she kills, the more powerful they'll be.

When Larke is getting annoyed, that's when they spring into action and taunt her, trying to annoy her further and go over her patience's limits. However, sometimes they try to annoy her all of a sudden, causing her to clutch her head in pain and mutter to herself to calm herself down or shut them up, usually both. This is also one of the only times where she loses her cool and becomes visibly panicked, though she will calm down instantly once they shut up. This can happen at any time.

Larke is the victim of violent nightmares, which usually results in her muttering, talking, screaming and moving in her sleep, depending on the intensity of said nightmare. She rarely has peaceful nights and relies on luck to get some rest. The Vengeful Ones appear as nightmarish shadows and they actually attack her in her sleep, causing real pain. They are probably the only thing Larke truly fears. She can calm herself down very easily though and pain means next to nothing for her when it's only a dull ache or a small headache. She may hallucinate upon waking up for a bit or be confused and dizzy.

While she is an extremely powerful fighter, Larke has, like everyone, weaknesses. She is horrible when she has to fight alongside someone because she is used to order people around and people don't tend to let themselves be ordered around. Even in the rare occasion that her partner will obey her orders, she still has trouble coordinating her attacks with her partner's. Therefore, it's better for her to fight alone while her partner fights alone. Ordering her around is useless, by the way. The Vengeful Ones also tend to strike during battles, which is a huge weakness by itself.

Another weakness is that, while Larke is intelligent (though nowhere near a genius' level, of course), she can make extremely rash decisions that can cost her dearly. Whether it be for underestimating her opponent or just a lousy attempt to get rid of her boredom, it often gets her into trouble. Luckily for her, she always seems to take care of it and stay alive.

Finally, she has the bad habit of severely underestimating her opponents the first time around, which can lead to some sticky situations. However, she won't make the same mistake twice, meaning that your second fight with her will probably be much harder.

Biography: Born in a small village of peasants, Larke seemed to be doomed to live an average life as a peasant. She wished for more, but obviously wouldn't get her wish granted. Her village did have some guards to protect them from thieves and such. All in all, it was a nice little community and everyone knew each other. Larke's parents were overprotective though, and she wasn't allowed to stay outside on her own.

One day though, she snuck out while her parents were working and found a small metal fragment. Upon touching it, a voice echoed in her mind, greatly startling her since she was only 6. The voice promised to make her wishes come true and the young Larke naïvely believed the voice. When she agreed to help him, as it was a male voice, the fragment instantly penetrated inside her skin, causing her to yelp slightly in surprise.

The voice then ordered for her to kill one of the guards and steal their weapon. Larke, of course, objected but was completely manipulated by the voice and killed the guard by burning him alive during the night. She took his sword and, due to her young age, was easily manipulated by the voice, who called himself Inferno, to kill her parents and then her entire village, which meant a few dozen of people. Since she had no skills whatsoever with a sword, Inferno just told her what to do and she obeyed.

As years passed, Inferno made Larke gather more fragments and absorb souls, which slowly corrupted her. Her hair became purple and her eyes became crimson. All those she killed had their souls sent into her mind, causing her to hear voices at all times, which she called The Vengeful Ones. Her personality greatly changed and she was an overall much different person.

Now 16, she heard about Colin Powell and, interested about his so-called "power", decided to go to Ostrheinsburg to experience this "power" herself.

Others: Soul Edge has granted Larke the powers of telekinesis and telepathy.

Kraylle Limo (Darkrow) (click to showhide)

Name: Kraylle Limo

Nickname(s): Cascade.

Age: Stopped counting long ago.

Gender: Genderless.

What Color is Your Soul?: Red.

Birthplace: Hell.

Occupation: None.

Weapon: Its own body.

Appearance: In itshttp://fc07.deviantart.net/fs11/i/2006/213/0/2/Odd_blob___01_by_DecoyRobot.jpg, Kraylle simply looks like an odd dark blue blob with a red core and an indeterminate shape. Kraylle cannot talk when like this.

However, Kraylle rarely uses that form and prefers using its http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs27/f/2008/108/a/2/Slime_Girl_Cascade_by_Legend20x.jpg form. When like this, Kraylle takes the form of a fairly voluptuous woman with red eyes. Its "hair" seems to be short cornrows with an exceedingly long tuft of hair left out on front. The sides are always dripping, as are her feet and hands. It tends to stand at 6'5".

Personality: Kraylle seems to be born to cause trouble. It's cocky and selfish, although it doesn't mind working in teams. Always seeming calm and focused, Kraylle can be the complete opposite at times. It often follows its own orders, completely ignoring orders that it is given. Because of that, it often gets in arguments with its partners.

Fairly violent, Kraylle takes full advantage of its ability to morph into anything and frequently makes its hands into circular blades, swords, hammers and the likes to fight. Extremely potent fighter because of its body's nature, it can be almost impossible to beat unless you manage to hit it's weak spot (which I will not reveal~). It can become tired though, like any other living being.

Unable to be saddened, it can however feel guilt perfectly well, although it is rare. Angering it is fairly easy, you just need to keep throwing insults until it snaps, although this isn't really recommended. It mostly stays quiet and rarely talks and, when it does, is mostly sarcastic and cynical.

Since its "normal" form is that of a visually attractive woman despite its slimy texture, it often takes advantage of it and tries seducing males of other species to gain their trust so it can watch them cry and even become suicidal because it betrayed them.

It doesn't seem to have any moral standards, killing women and children without remorse in rather gruesome fashion, like going inside them and making them explode when it is feeling sadistic and cruel.

Biography: Born in Hell, Kraylle was a particularly powerful demon. It enjoyed tormenting other demons and was generally feared by them. It soon grew accustomed to using a female form of a visually attractive woman to trick people and such. Hell became boring after a while though, and Kraylle wanted to have more fun, to cause more trouble, so it went to Earth to torment humans.

When Nightmare was around, it was interested by the power of Soul Edge, but didn't have time to set out to gain power from it that Nightmare was defeated. Therefore, it went back to tormenting humans, having fun kill them and such. Recently, it found out that Soul Edge was being revived, so it immediately set out for Ostrheinsburg to see that power for itself.

Others: Its voice changes depending on what form it is in. A female will have a feminine voice and a male will have a masculine voice. It cannot talk if it's an animal or an object.

Queen Natalie-Emmanuelle De Larochelière (Darkrow) (click to showhide)

Name: Queen Natalie-Emmanuelle De Larochelière

Nickname(s): La Colombe Noire (The Black Dove), Natalie, Nat.

Age: 32

Gender: Female

What Color is Your Soul?: White

Birthplace: Loralle Kingdom, Paris, France.

Occupation: Queen of the Loralle Kingdom, located in France.

Weapon: A very long broadsword and a small dagger used for emergency measures. Sword is called Corbeau and dagger is called Corneille.

Appearance: http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii29/deviegirlie/Sword.jpg is a fairly regular woman silhouette-wise, maybe a bit thin, being 5'6" and weighing near 115 pounds. She has hazel eyes and very long pitch-black hair that reach her feet.

She wears an elegant white dress under a charcoal armor with large shoulder pads, which gives her a strong, almost intimidating look. Her gauntlets make her fingers look almost demon-like too. The dress reaches her knees, which are covered by long brown leggings. She has black greaves that reach her shins.

Personality: A determined woman with the fate of her whole kingdom on her shoulders, Natalie tends to be distant when others are around, although it's just because she has a kingdom to save, otherwise she's a fairly nice woman. She is well-known as The Black Dove (La Colombe Noire, in French), a knight who has never lost a single fight. The mere mention of her nickname can strike fear in many warriors' hearts, even though not many know that she's actually the queen of the Loralle Kingdom.

Despite her fairly intimidating aura, which her large sword only manages to make even stronger, Natalie is actually a big softie deep inside. She wouldn't hurt a fly unless she had to. She always seems to be a bit lost in her thoughts, which is understandable when you know the current situation in her kingdom. There's also the fact that most of her family died thanks to the recent events in her kingdom, which has left her somewhat scarred. She is still mourning their death since it has happened very recently and may be a bit sensitive.

Not a big fan of sword fighting (or battle in general), she is still an amazing fighter nonetheless, although she avoids conflict whenever it's possible. This is probably due to her thanatophobia though. She is, in fact, extremely scared of death; so much that seeing people die scares her too. Therefore, the fact that the almost complete destruction of her kingdom has greatly scarred and traumatised her is quite understandable when you know this.

Not a lot frightens her, but the things that do are crippling to her, since she usually freezes from fear. She absolutely hates this part of her and is often screaming at herself mentally that she's nothing but a coward and that she needs to snap out of it, usually in vain. She also blames herself for what has happened to her kingdom. While bad, this is also good since she is pretty much hell-bent on rebuilding it and this guilt fuels her desire to do so.

She holds a very violent grudge against Aeon Calcos, known as Lizardman, for destroying her kingdom with his Lizardmen. Thanks to this rather unfortunate event, she has gained the habit of killing any Lizardmen she might see, completely forgetting her fear of death. This habit, or rather, urge, to kill doesn't just apply to Lizardmen and Aeon Calcos, but to any reptile. You could say that she hates them. Sometimes, you can hear her giggle nervously when killing one.

During the very rare times that she is completely and truly blissful, Natalie becomes silly, goofy and cheerful. She will laugh much more often and may even tell jokes. However, saddening her results in her going silent and maybe even emotional, as shown by her crying softly at times. Angering will make her act as if her offender was a Lizardman, which means she would be ready to kill. Luckily, she has almost legendary patience, so it's highly unlikely to happen. Family generally is a touchy subject.

Biography: Born as the only daughter of Queen Anne and King Robert in Paris, France, Natalie was destined to become the Queen of the Loralle Kingdom, which her parents ruled together. The kingdom was flourishing and was very well-known (and feared) in all of Europe. Since she was born in a very rich royal family, she was, of course, spoiled to death. She could have anything she wanted and no one was allowed to whine or complain.

Surprisingly, Natalie didn't abuse this power and was happy with whatever she found. In fact, she rarely demanded an object; she prefered earning the right to have it or finding it by herself. That's even how she found her dagger, Corneille. She found it on the ground at night when she had to go to the bathroom and decided to keep it. She didn't tell her parents about it though. After all, she was only 4 at the time.

From that day forward, she developped a strong liking of swords and wanted to be a knight. Since that was what she wanted (despite how odd it was for someone with royal blood to be a mere knight), her parents granted her wish and hired an experienced knight to teach her how to fight with a sword. This, unsurprisingly, made the young girl happy.

The experienced knight, Jérome, taught young Natalie how to defend herself with a sword. She was, quite honestly, a horrible sword fighter and Jérome was often very disappointed with her. Natalie continued training nonetheless, determined to become better. Her trainer liked her attitude though, which was good, and said that she would be a wonderful Queen one day.

It took her 5 years to even start getting used to the basics. Luckily for her, Jérome was a good man with immense patience. She had grown very close to him during that time and considered him to be a second father while he thought of her as his daughter. The two were together very often, which was probably the reason why they had grown so close to each other.

During those 5 years though, Jérome noticed something about Natalie: she had unbelievable strength for her age! Therefore, he opted to give her a large sword, which she could swing around easily. Of course, it was light for an adult, but for a normal 9 years old girl it was heavy. This only made her grow stronger. When the basics were done, Natalie almost literally blasted through the rest of the training. It was a breeze for her as it only took 5 more years when it should have taken three times as much time.

Now 14, Natalie was still very close with Jérome. However, bad news soon arrived: King Robert was terminally ill and was on the brink of death. Her training was put on hiatus for moral reasons. She didn't want to train while her father was dying and that was perfectly understandable. He died a week after the news arrived, much to Natalie's immense dismay. Queen Anne was now the sole ruler of the Loralle Kingdom.

This event, however, brought a rather interesting and problematic question into play. Since the King and the Queen only had one daughter, who would be the next King?! King Robert needed a successor and it ended up being Natalie's choice. It was simple; all she had to do is find a husband. There was no hurry either, but she had to make sure that he would be able to be a King worthy of Loralle.

Once her mourning was over with, Natalie resumed her training with Jérome. As a gift, the kind old man gave her a large black sword. She baptised it Corbeau and it seemed to be made for her as she was able to use it extremely well without any training. Jérome decided to carry the training session outside one day (when Natalie was 18) because it was unnaturally hot inside the Loralle Castle.

There, she met a few boys who watched her train. One in particular, named Victor, caught her attention. He seemed very nice and friendly and the girl actually befriended him. Jérome almost immediately knew that was it. She had found the next King of the Loralle Kingdom. She became best friends with Victor and he was exceptionally allowed inside Loralle Castle to watch Natalie train and to keep her company since, you see, he was but a commoner.

After a few years, Natalie's mother grew older and older and was soon going to kick the bucket. During that time, Natalie and Victor had fallen in love with each other and this had created plenty of rumors. Some said that Victor just wanted power and was deceiving Natalie while others said that Natalie was just a fool for allowing a commoner to become King of Loralle.

Eventually, Queen Anne died along with Jérome a week after the Queen of Loralle's death, making Natalie extremely sad once again, even though she had Victor by her side to console her. They were now King Victor and Queen Natalie. Natalie was now 28 and her husband was 27. Even though Natalie was fairly depressed, the Kingdom of Loralle was at its best.

Then came the horrible attack of Aeon Calcos, known as the Reptilian Assault by historians. The greek warrior turned abomination targeted the Kingdom of Loralle and trashed the place completely. During the attack, King Victor had sacrificed himself to protect Natalie from a fatal attack by the original Lizardman himself. Seeing her husband die in front of her own eyes added to the mayhem and the mix of fire, blood and screaming was just too much and she fainted on the spot. Aeon, luckily, thought that his attack had killed her and left the destroyed Kingdom of Loralle behind. Only few had survived and escaped before they came back.

When Natalie woke up, there was destruction all around her. Bloodied corpses, decapitated nobles, ruins, rubble, infernal flames envelopping the rare buildings that were still standing. The worst thing, however, was the limp body of King Victor laying down over her, his now lifeless eyes staring at her. This is what spawned her thanatophobia.

Wondering why Aeon Calcos had attacked her Kingdom, she went to the nearest city to see a historian to ask him why he had attacked. Telling her about a man named Colin Powell, Soul Edge and the story behind them briefly, he told her that Ostrheinsburg, which was in Germany, could maybe help answer her questions.

Grief-stricken and determined to save her kingdom, she heads to Ostrheinsburg.

Others: Can speak French and has a slight accent, mainly having trouble with the "th" sound, making it either a "t" sound or a "z" sound, depending on the word she's trying to say. Has little to no knowledge about the two swords.

Sophie Desrosiers (Darkrow) (click to showhide)

Name: Sophie Desrosiers

Nickname(s): N/A

Age: 24

Gender: Female

What Color is Your Soul?: White

Birthplace: Loralle Kingdom, Paris, France

Occupation: Royal Guard.

Weapon: A dark blue sword named Bleue and a black dagger called Noire.

Appearance: http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c283/space_dazee/Anime/Girls/anime_girl117.jpg is a fairly tall woman, being an even 6 feet tall and weighing around 165 pounds. Her hair is long and pitch black, reaching her mid-back. Her eyes are dark blue and she always seem to be a bit sad. Her cheeks tend to be a bit red because of how often she blushes.

She only wears armor on her torso and her stomach. It is black with white lines running across it. It can absorb quite a few hits from a sword before even being close to breaking. Under it she wears a long-sleeved red shirt. The sleeves end in the middle of her palms, showing that it's just a bit too large for her. For lower wear she has simple black pants with two buckles on each thigh. She wears black boots with small high heels. Around her waist is a red fauld.

Personality: Despite her rather important job, Sophie's low self-esteem tends to be a problem. Whenever she needs to take action, she'll always hesitate out of fear of making things worse. She can't help it; it's just the way she is. She always does her best to help someone in need though, even though her self-esteem often clouds her judgement. She's a good woman at heart though.

The slightest compliment can make her blush as she is not used to them at all. She stutters when either denying them or accepting them. She will compliment others whenever she feels like they deserve it. She is very polite, using appropriate honorifics and titles, such as "Your Majesty" or "Mister", for anyone she meets and formally apologising whenever she makes a mistake.

Sophie is a rather uptight woman too. She tends to appear cold to strangers despite her politeness and has trouble warming up to people. Being a royal guard, she also lacks trust in strangers and is usually the first one to voice her distrust or doubt in someone. She isn't much of a talker either, prefering to listening to everything the others have to say before voicing her own opinion. This makes her a great listener.

Earning her respect can be hard, but it's worth it since she'll open up to you. When talking to strangers, she can be brutally cold and won't even say her name, not deeming it necessary to tell her name to a complete stranger. While she seems sure of herself when around strangers, you can see that she's very insecure about herself when she warms up to you. She still stays very polite even with friends and it's hard for her not to use honorifics and titles.

She tends to think that everything that happens around her is her fault, sometimes even making up reasons that barely make any sense. She will often be quiet and distant, but she's obviously just shy. However, she's not afraid to say what's on her mind to someone she hates. In the right conditions though, she can be very courageous and brave.

Biography: Born in France, Sophie has always been bullied for being shy and introverted. Her parents always told her to be more cheerful and such, but they didn't seem to understand that their daughter was far too self-conscious for that. She was a sensitive child who cried often and was often called a weakling, which made her even more introverted as time passed. Soon, she literally stopped talking for almost a week due to depression.

After that week though (she was 10 already), she vowed to start talking more and become tougher for her sake. Her solution was to join the Loralle Kingdom's Royal Guards. She learned the basics quickly in a few years and at 16 she already was a full-fledged guard. She still didn't talk much, but she did try even though she stuttered. Since she was still young, she still had to do some extensive training.

This bonus training, as they called it, was extremely hard and tough, even for a grown-up. She came home exhausted and covered with bruises only to go back there the next day. Needless to say, she cried a lot during those painful training sessions. However, she never gave up and kept trying, which greatly surprised her trainer. She also got to know Queen Natalie herself and they become acquaintances. She was 20 when her bonus training was over and she was a new, tough woman. She still had self-esteem problems though.

Then, Aeon Calcos and his army of Lizardmen attacked. Sophie was one of the few who managed to escape, though she only did this because she was too injured to continue fighting. Nursed by a young man who found her outside the Kingdom shortly after the attack, Sophie found herself guilty of running away. She had failed her Kingdom and her Queen.

Then it struck her. Was the Queen even alive anymore? She didn't dare go back to Loralle, fearing rejection. Having learned of Soul Edge quite a while back, it seemed evident that Aeon Calcos was controlled by it. Wishing to redeem herself to her Kingdom, she heads for Ostrheinsburg to put an end to Lizardman's rampages and any other beings that were probably causing chaos.

Who knows, maybe Queen Natalie is still alive...

Others: Sophie can obviously speak French, but her mastery of English is almost perfect, only her accent hinting that she's French (except her name).

That was a lot, eh? As you can probably tell, I've worked hard on this, so I hope this isn't ignored. That would make me a sad Darkie.

If popular enough, I may add a Secondary Character/NPC sign up sheet to make things more interesting. I already have a sign up sheet in mind, so I just need to know if it'll be used or not.

I know there are a lot of rules, but I just want this to be a good, structured RP and not a messy story. Plot ideas and such are, of course, greatly appreciated. Suggestions to make the RP better are also greatly appreciated. I'm also expecting every RPer to use this thread a lot for questions and such. I will happily clarify anything that confuses you and I'm sure that others with knowledge of the games will do the same, so don't be shy!

Now, go, and make me proud!

He can smell at most 100 yards away. He is very good at using his senses in dire situations.

He dislikes not being able to see. It is his biggest disadvantage, for people can deceive him easier. His biggest hate, is also his senses.

He'll drink it and find out its perfume. He hates being picked on by his blindness.

Biography: When he was born, Rein had sight. He was a intelligent young boy and liked to walk around at look at nature. He would go to school and learn about many things in life, and he was most interested in Soul Edge and Soul Calibur and the history of them. He would wait for class to end to go to the library in his town and try to research them. He would read for weeks about them. He had an unfortunate accident though. When he was 10, he was in a library, when a bunch of people came in trying to take all info of Soul Edge ad how to find it. Rein was still in the library reading the book that talked all about Soul Edge ironically. Rein didn't notice, for he cut out all of the sound around him to read about Soul Edge. he was found by the men and took the book out of his hands.

Rein ran after them to get the book back, for he was halfway through where the violence came in. He caught up with the men, but someone used the hilt of both of their swords, on both of his eyes. He was ran to the best medic in town. They searched for a way to fix it, but they couldn't find a way to cure blindness. Rein thought that his whole world had changed. People felt sorry, but there was that one group that picked on him. They pushed him. They hit him in the face. The only thing that made him not commit suicide was his mother. She would always tell him stories about Soul Edge. She personally didn't like them and thought that they were fake, but it kept a smile on Rein.

Rein spent all his life teaching himself about being blind until he was 21. Rein learned to live with his blindness. He learned how his heightened senses would let him "see". He needed a job and he went for a teacher. They had no position opened, except for one. He became a teacher for blind people. Everyone in that class always had nothing around their eyes, but Rein liked to have a headband there. He would teach them how to use their heightened senses. He was teaching a class when a man ran into the room.

The man said, "It's your mother, she is about to die." Rein ran out of the classroom and to his mother who was in her house and was very cold.

"Mother, what has happened to you?"

She was barely breathing, but she could speak,

"I was traveling like I always said I would, when I came upon a man who had taken all of our books about Soul Edge. He told me that Soul Edge was back, with a new bearer who was in Ostrheinsburg. Then he hit me with the hilt of both of his swords in the neck. He ran, then a guard found me and took me back here. I had just left the village for 10 minutes when I met him."

Rein was tearing up, 'That bastard is going to pay for what he has done to me,' thought Rein as his mother died in his arms. Rein made a funeral for her and she was buried properly.

Rein went to the town Blacksmith and ordered two swords that looked like what he explained it as. The Blacksmith had it done in one day. That day Rein had all of his armor done by the armorer and left the village. He set out for Ostrheinsburg. He brought two sacks full of food and water with him to survive. It took him two weeks, but he reached Ostrheinsburg in two weeks.
Read the Rules?: Arcturus

Others: Rein has super natural senses due to his blindness.

I really hope that I still have it.

Posted by: Killer Knuckles Fan Aug 29 2010, 12:51 AM

hey darkie what time period is this set in? I know prolly middle ages, but id like to know an educated estimate so i can pick my characters nationality. i have some ideas but i dont want to be so out of the box its kinda unrealistic even for a Fantasy RP.

Posted by: Darkrow Aug 29 2010, 12:56 AM

Judging from the dates of birth given on the site in the first post, it would be set somewhere in 1641.

I won't be too strict on the time consistencies though since I'm no history junkie. For example, I have no idea if Ilanz, Surselva, District of Graubaüden, Switzerland was a small village of peasants.

Also, in case anyone is wondering, America isn't allowed because I'd prefer the characters being from Europe/Asia/Africa. Australia isn't allowed since it wasn't found yet.

Woot! Finally got around to finishing that old SU. I almost forgot, but then I thought about this RP.

Posted by: Darkrow Aug 31 2010, 04:48 PM

Hmm, there are some spelling mistakes in there.

For example, it's "wear", not "where". Completely different.

You also put capital letters at weird places. Colors, gems and other objects should not take a capital letter, like "obsidian", "taste" and "black".

You made quite a few typoes too, like "and" instead of "an". Please watch out for those. Apart from that, it's all good.

Whenever there's a word that makes you hesitate, just look it up. Takes 10 secs.

Also, from the posts I've seen you make, they are quite short. Not that I mind a lot, but I've noticed that you don't describe a lot. Adding description can make a post much longer and more accurate, meaning it won't confuse people. When using dialogue, you need to change paragraphs each time there's another character speaking. It makes it easier to read and less confusing for others. X3

Finally, since he just recently got his swords and there are no mention of him learning how to use them, I'm going to assume that he's not an experienced fighter and is prone to mistakes. Could make it interesting.

And with that, if you can watch out for what I told you, then you're accepted. X3

Posted by: Shadow Lucario Aug 31 2010, 04:58 PM

Okay, I will do that. I will make sure to describe my posts and make sure to do all that you said. I am still a low level RPer, but I try to squeeze myself into the higher levels.

Posted by: Darkrow Aug 31 2010, 05:00 PM

I could help you become better at profiles/posts/both if you want. I actually did that for some friends. X3

Posted by: Shadow Lucario Aug 31 2010, 05:04 PM

Well, I guess. Will we have to do it in PMs, or just fill up this thread?

Posted by: Darkrow Aug 31 2010, 05:05 PM

PMs since it wouldn't really be considered as related to this thread, but RPing as a whole.

If you don't feel comfortable with me "teaching" you, then don't feel obligated to accept.

Posted by: Shadow Lucario Aug 31 2010, 05:31 PM

No, I would like to have you help me with it. I want to be a better RPer. I want to be in the big leagues.

Posted by: Darkrow Aug 31 2010, 05:34 PM

Alright then, do you want to start with better profiles or better posts? And then we'll take this to PMs.

Will finish tomorrow. Or whenever I get online again.

Posted by: Darkrow Sep 1 2010, 07:55 AM

After looking up Nasira's name, I have found two things.

First, "Nasira" is an Arabic name.
Second, "Tovora" is a Slovenian word that can mean "tote, tonnage, loading, load, lading, haul, freight, drag, consignment, charge, burden" according to a translator.

Seems a bit weird for a Japanese girl to have an Arabic name and a Slovenian word as a last name, don't you think? However, I could understand that, if you change her last name to something Arabic, she could have immigrated to Japan early, so she could be considered Japanese despite having an Arabic name. I did that with my Russian character, actually. He moved to Japan early on in his life and he could be considered Japanese.

Unless you want to change her whole name, which I doubt you'd want. ._.

Posted by: Shadow Lucario Sep 1 2010, 03:54 PM

Oh Dark, do you want me to change up my Profile or is it accepted? I don't know if I changed all that you wanted changed for it to be accepted.

Posted by: Wishful Jirachi Sep 1 2010, 04:48 PM

I'm going to work on this as best as I can. My mom is currently breathing down my neck and she isn't to fond of me being on here every time I am allowed to get on the comp....

Posted by: Nasira Sep 1 2010, 05:34 PM

Are you really going so far as to reject profiles because of the NAME? Jesus. Forget my sign-up. I'm in too many roleplays already. It would've been fun to use Nasira for the first goddamn time after having her character in my head for three months, and Gemini would've been awesome here, but if the name isn't good enough then I guess I'm screwed.

Posted by: Darkrow Sep 1 2010, 06:03 PM

"Name: First and last name; middle names optional. Make the names fit their nationality."

I was just pointing it out since, as I said, a Japanese girl with an Arabic name doesn't really make sense. When making characters, you aren't obligated to have them stick to a single name, y'know, especially last names. I often modify, say, Larke's last name to fit the story and such. She got the last names Jumiko, Eischer and Shuurajou. It doesn't change who the character is and it makes them fit with where they were born. It makes them more... realistic. I even gave you a suggestion to make her name plausible.

I want this to be a realistic RP (with a bit of exaggeration, but still), so yes, if the name doesn't fit the nationality I can reject a profile. Yours was barely started, I believe, so it wasn't really that bad. If just changing the last name to something Arabic, change the birthplace and then add a small sentence that says that she was born in an Arabic country and moved to Japan very shortly after birth is too hard or you're unwilling to do it for personal reasons, then it's fine. I'm not forcing you to join, although I would prefer it, I can't and I won't force you.

Also, it seems that your being "in too many RPs" isn't related to your withdrawal since it seems solely due to me not accepting your character's name. Also, for Gemini, you could just give her a random name and make "Gemini" her nickname and what everyone calls her.

TL;DR: I feel like you're overreacting, but if you don't want/feel like changing names and withdrawing, it's fine, although I'd prefer you joining since RPing with friends is much more enjoyable.

Posted by: Nasira Sep 1 2010, 07:49 PM

It's not Arabic. For the second time.

Look, I didn't mean to snap at you, but if a name I have chosen to reflect myself and my character isn't right for this roleplay, I can't join. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Name: Maribella Monteiro

Nickname(s): Mary, Bella or to people who have heard of her before: "Mary Depressed" as in 'Very Depressed'

Age: 16

Gender: Female

What Color is Your Soul?: White

Birthplace: Portugal

Occupation: She is a Pirate

Weapon: http://img.alibaba.com/photo/200546031/Handforged_JP_Samurai_Sword_Foursquare_Tsuba_RazorSharp.jpg XD

Appearance: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y89/ccooll/Anime/AnimeGirl6.jpg

Maribella Monteiro has a fully developed body and is full of 'curves'. She stand at 5'7" and weighs 118 pounds, making her almost underweight. She has dark purple eyes, which sometimes seem to be black from far away but you will observe it's unnatural color if you get to look at her up close. She has long eyelashs, making her eyes very attractive and seductive depending on the way she closes them. Her hair is a dark black that sometimes appears to be a midnight blue, though her roots are completely black and her hair color is 100% natural. It is short and stops right after her chin. She has three ring-shaped earrings on both her ears, them being two on the bottom and one on top. They made of pure gold and shine brightly in the sun.

She wears a teal blue dress that has no sleeves at all. It barely covers her legs and has a dark black belt on her waist, which she can easily unstrap to do random damage on an enemy, or simply because she feels violent at the moment. She has some teal blue straps wrapped around her arm just after her elbow. It is fairly tight and if she were to take it off you could see the marks of it. She wears them over a white glove she has on both her hands.She also has what looks like a dark blue handkerchief wrapped around her head, which she occasionally uses to put her hair out of her face.

The bottom part of her dress as stated above, barely covers her legs stopping a lot before her knees. She wears some white shorts under it though, since she doesn't find it necessary to show her panties off to anyone. Her bottom part of the dress which is separated from the belt, is cut on the sides, making it visible she wears white shorts underneath, though it does match to tell the truth. Similar to the teal blue straps wrapped around her arm, she has some of those on her legs too. The go from just below her knees all the way to her sandals, actually being part of her sandals. She wears some long socks that are held by the straps though, which is very comfortable if you ask Mary.

Mary has a small pocket tied to her wight leg, where it has a very small knife she keeps in handy just in case she looses her sword. It also has a smaller pocket in the inside that has a few peices of candy and gum. She wears a golden necklace under all her cloths and it has a blue jewel made of turquoise.

Personality:

Maribella is a slightly mysterious girl at first glance. She doesn't speak much and seems to keep everything to herself. But if you think she is the silent type... think again. She is very excited and simply loves having fun whenever she can. She will turn the worst situation into the funniest one with a simple few words and comments.

She doesn't like feeling bad, so she often chews a piece of candy whenever she feels bad to fill her up with sweetness. If she isn't chewing gum or sucking on some candy, she is looking for something to do while she waits for time to pass by.

Most of her feelings and emotions are unknown to herself... Making it almost unpredictable on how she will react in various situations... Though most of the times she appears to be a jolly happy girl that simply loves riding in her ship and making friends.

Mary has a weird habit of glaring at any person she just meets, using that as a test of their courage to stay near her. If they get away from her, she thinks of them as weak and scared. But if they tend to stay after her evil glare then she will greet them with a happy smile and welcome the person as a brave and courageous friend.

For some weird reason, Mary tends to see hallucinations at one time or another, making her randomly yell or fight against mid air.. This is unknown to her however, she believes that she is gifted in seeing some things that no one else can.

She is basically a happy and mysterious freak!

Biography:

Maribella was born in Portugal inside a pirate ship. Her mother was a maid and her father the owner of the pirate. She grew up to be spoiled, though she always was a nice little baby. Her father were beat her mother up, though Mary would never see or hear this anytime. She didn't like her mother much anyway since her father would always take her out to the top deck, and then downstairs to beat her mother up for not cleaning the ships bathroom and etc.

When Mary turned 5, she got her first little sword and would wander around the ship and even land sometimes with it. "Hiya!" She would yell while twirling it around in her right hand and stabbing random people in the middle of the street. She would see the blood coming out of their bodies, which she had no idea what it was not seeing it before.

"What's this stuff?" She asked as she put her sword away and walked up to the people on the ground, who were in deep pain. She bent down and touched their wounds, observing the warm red liquid on her index finger and watching the sun shine on it. She dared to put her finger in her mouth, the blood tasted funny... and weird. Not very tasty to tell the truth.

"Eww... That doesn't taste good." Mary affirmed to herself as she turned around and walked back to the ship, curious about if she had that so called 'blood' in her body too. When she got to the ship she hear her mother yelling, to her surprise she seemed in pain and never having her this before she was quite scared about what was happening. She walked downstairs and heard the yelling even louder. She didn't dare to enter the room, but she could hear her father yelling at her mother as she continued yelling in pain.

"Stop yelling you maiden!" He would yell, a few seconds after her mother's screams turning into quiet whimpers. He was glaring at her, she had cut marks all over her body and blood dripping to the ground. He cut her up badly when she talked back to him. She didn't agree about wanting to steal from Cervantes, but whenever she talked about the subject she would be smacked in the face.

"I... I just don't want you to die... Maribella would be very sad." The poor woman mopped from under her tears and pain. She whimpered once more and soon quiet down. The man glared at her, putting his black boot on top of her cut bleeding leg and coming close to her ear, whispering a few words to her.

"I won't die before you. You know that. Your days are counted and Maribella has to grow up. She's already five years old. Pirates go through bigger things than losing their parents." He told her, now pushing against her leg, which now had a boot mark on it was the blood seeps out quicker. She bit her lips so she wouldn't yell again, she didn't want Mary to get scared or watch the scene.

"O-okay mas-ster..." She answered, then looking down to the ground from the wooden chair she was tied up to. The man smirked evilly, and walked behind the chair as he grabbed his long silver sharp sword. He raised it up and cut the ropes, making the woman fall to the ground on her knees and hands as she coughed some blood. She then wiped her lips and looked at him from the ground.

"If you don't mind... I'm gonna go look for something to wrap around these wounds before I doe because of blood lose, thank you very much." She then slowly got up and started walking towards the stairs. Maribella upon hearing this quickly darted upwards, running out into town and far away from the ship so they didn't know she heard all that. While Mary ran, her father looked at her mother barely being able to hold herself up as she walked towards the stairs.

A year later Maribella's father brutally killed her mother after a discussion they had. She was six and now had grown to not like her mother at all because of the things her father would tell her, such as mothers were for weaklings, which was why he killed his when he was 10.

"Wow... Why'd you kill your mom papito?" She would ask curiously, actually forgetting her mother was killed that very morning. She did feel somewhat depressed though, even though she didn't like her mother, it was still her mother. Her father wrapped his hands around her as they stared out into sea and he pointed out into the wide ocean.

"Well... I didn't like her. She'd boss me around and I think piratas take care of their own lives. That's why I let you wander off around the city. It's because I know you are a pirata and you know how to care of yourself no matter how young or how old you are." He assured her calmly, looking down at her and greeting her with a friendly father hug.

"Wow... Is that why you killed mama? So she wouldn't boss me around?" She asked innocently, looking up at her father's eyes and hoping to god she wouldn't get beat up for mentioning the fact she knew he had killed her. Her heart pumped quickly, fear slightly taking over her body as she looked at his eyes becoming visibly angry. He paused for a minute and soon took a deep breath before speaking to her again.

"No. I killed your mother for other reasons... but you can look at it that way. I don't want anyone to boss my little pirata around." He told her, biting his lips afterwards as he restrained himself from his violent nature of brutally beating women up.

Mary smiled, she was happy her father controlled himself, and to her this was a test of control. If her father hadn't controlled himself right now, she was sure she would leave the next day, even if she had to take the small rowing boat all the way back to Portugal.

The years passed. Maribella got better with her sword skills and had traveled around the 7 seas with her father at the time. She was 10 years old now and was on a journey with her father. He verbal language had changed drastically though, she would say more cuss words, most of them being in Portuguese though... She also acquired this weird habit... which got her into stabbing her father accidentally.

"Hey papito... Do you see that whale over there?" She asked, climbing up higher on the poopdeck and putting her hands over her head as she squinted her eyes to see better. Was she actually seeing a whale? She was near Africa, and what she knew about Africa was sharks were more common than whales for sure.

"Whales? Are you crazy Bella? There are no whales here!" He told her, speaking as if she was some crazy person that said turtles had wings and could fly if they wanted to. He continued steering the boat towards shore, which was another reason there shouldn't be any whales nearby.

"I'm not crazy. I see a whale! A baleia! I'm not blind it's over there!" Mary yelled, pointing at the black figure which now jumped out of the water and made a huge splash, throwing water up and over the boat. Mary threw her arms upwards to not let the water get her face, but ended up only covering her eyes. She was soaked now. Her hair was dripping and she ould taste the salt water dripping inside her mouth.

"Want anymore proof that there's a whale out there?" She asked blankly, turning over to her father with her arms still up. He looked at her, and saw her perfectly normal. Dry hair, common dimwitted expression and her clothes perfectly normal as well. The only strange thing to him was the fact her arms were upwards.

"I don't see any proof minha pirata... You must be playing tricks on me." He told her shortly before rolling his eyes and looking again at shore, turning the ships steering wheel and now going towards it. There was no whale, so what was Mary seeing?

"There is a whale!" Maribella flailed, throwing her arms next to her as he wet hair flew into her face. She wasn't crazy, her father just was pretending that she was... or was he not? He had to... if he wasn't then why was she all wet?

"Calm down Maribella!" He yelled at her, now going straight towards African shore. His eyes were filled with anger due to the childish insistence his child had about seeing a whale. "There is no whale! You are seeing things! And if you want to prove it go and ask an African native!"

Bella dropped her arms... he called her by her name, which meant he was serious and angry at the same time. She gave up at convincing him... it could end up costing her life to do so and that wasn't worth it. She could as well as just ask a naive about nearby whales and if they had a towel for her.

Soon enough, Bella caught a glimpse of a person slowly creeping up towards her father. Her eyes widened as she reached for her sword behind her and started running towards the figure, which now was ready to give her father a good bye.

"Dad watch out! Behind you!" She yelled as she threw her knife at the figure, who now let go of the sword and let it drop to the ground. "Filho da puta..." She cussed in Portuguese as she then watched the attacking figure fade away into something else as her father figure faded away completely. The figure was her dad!

"Holy shit!" She yelled as she ran up to him and pulled the sword out from his abs, watching the blood slowly seep out. She was horrified.... Didn't she just stab the figure that was going to attack her father? Or maybe it had powers that let it run away and make her stab her father... either way she ended up hurting her dad badly and had to do something about it.

"Maribella you idiot!" He said as he placed his hands over his wound and slowly got up. Those words hurt Mary greatly, making tears slowly form at her eyes as her hands overed her mouth in astonishment.

"I-I'm so sorry dad... Foi sem querer..." She apologized, a tear rolling down her face as sh watched him get up and get off the ship and onto shore. He was probably going towards a place with something to tend his wound to. Even though nothing 'serious' happened, she was feeling terrible...

After that incident, Maribella would see occasional things that no one else would, which made her think her eyes were gifted and she could see some things no one else could. She would get into fights with other pirates and even mid-air through others' views, but to her it was all real. So real she even saw her own blood after a fight with 'mid aid'.

When she was 13 now, she was coming back towards the ship with some fruits. She walked inside humming happily and then saw a scene that stunned her greatly. She let go of everything in her dress and ran up to a figure laying down in the ground. Her father was dead.

"Pai! Pai! Are you okay?!" She yelled as she ran over to the limbless dead figure with blood surrounding it. She threw herself on the ground next to him and put his head on her knee, slowly messing with his hair. She observed the sword cuts all over his body, which was probably what killed him... Anger burned inside her as she felt rage building. Who dared to kill Maribella Monteiro's father? She didn't know it was Cervantes, the deadly pirata... She just couldn't believe it... At least she had some candy and gum with her at the moment and managed to get one and pop it onto her mouth and chewed it slowly... tasting various flavors of sadness as she did so.

She took over her fathers ship, claiming it as her own since she was the only daughter of the pirate. She cared for it her own way, and it was always in good shape. She learned how to steer it before her father dieing of course. She now decided since she had no parents to hold her down what-so-ever, she would do whatever she wanted. She ruined a few villages, killed a few people... but only when she was in deep depression and out of candy. Which gave her a nickname of ' Mary Depressed '.

She decided to go to the cursed city of Ostrheinsbur when she was 16, it seemed like a new adventure. She arrived there after a month or two of sailing her ship around.

Ok, holy shoot! 34 new e-mails?! gotta go and delete them... Well, how is the city? do the people look normal? Do I RP normally like a 16 year old female freak? Or does she need to be careful about blah-blah that might be lurking in the shadows?

Posted by: Darkrow Sep 15 2010, 04:52 PM

Alrighty.

So, Ostrheinsburg is a cursed, deserted city. It has a river running past it, essentially separating it in two halves. There are many bridges connecting the two sides, but some are destroyed or in a bad state, rendering them unusable. There's a destroyed chapel and a big castle too, both are very important locations. Since it's old, there's also moss on the buildings and such.

The city is deserted, so there are no citizens and no animals. The only people there would be some of the already existing characters of the series, who would seek to destroy/gain Soul Edge's powers. You can find more info on them on the site linked in the first post.

Well, you RP like you would in a normal medieval RP while taking the Soul Calibur series' factors, such as an evil sword and so on.

Posted by: Glacicle Sep 16 2010, 04:56 PM

Aham... Okay, just tell me one more thing... Is the river big enough for a pirate ship to dock in it ?

Posted by: Darkrow Sep 16 2010, 04:59 PM

Hmm... Yes, but the bridges are too low for it to navigate.

Posted by: Glacicle Sep 16 2010, 05:08 PM

Name: Adalheidis Imke

Nickname(s): Ada and Imke (depends on person)

Age: 19

Gender: Female

What Color is Your Soul?: Blue

Birthplace: Germany

Occupation: Assasin

Weapon:
Her weapon is a staff that is slightly taller than her. The pole is a deep redish color, like the leather, most likely mahogany. The butt of the pole is flat while at the top is a metal like attachment. At the base, where the metal and wood meet, are two cords with a blue bush ribbon on the end. The actual metal part curves outward on one side and then dips back in to make a sort of bowl like shape before resuming its line of path and then curving over in an up and down motion, creating a finned or jagged like blade. The other side has the finned or jagged like blade closer to the connector point and then moves off to make on e more point. In the center, just above the connector point, is an orange gem as well as a larger version with black flecks in it at the base of the largest jagged blade.


Appearance:
http://www.desktoprating.com/wallpapers/anime-wallpapers-pictures/warrior-girl-anime-wallpaper.jpg
She is 6’ even with long slightly curled pink hair (Used to be soft strawberry red but grew lighter as she aged from the sun). Her bangs are parted to the sides so they do not obstruct her view while the two bangs right before the ears are longer and reach to the bottom of her chest. Her hair in length reaches to about just below her waist. She wears a headband that is placed behind her front bangs. The band is cream with a blue border that is connected with a bit of metal. The ban has to ribbons of the same design that go over the top of her hair which is slightly poofed up as if she had a bump it underneath her hair. Her skin is fair and devote of marks except for a scar that she has on the bottom of her left ankle.

As for upper body clothing, she has two sleeve/arm cloths that reach from about two inches above her elbow to her wrist. They have a blue trim farther up her arm and a gold trim at the other end. There is a small design at the bottom. She also wears an almost dress like piece of clothing. Starting at her shoulders is leather like material that forms the collar. It is a redish color, trimmed with gold, which buckles in the front but stops just below her arms. The leather makes an upside down V shape that is connected to the white part of her dress at the lower point on the outside. Her dress at her chest is open in the middle, exposing the sides of her breasts but covering the rest. It is held together by a leather clasp in the front as well as a belt with a purple center piece.

The belt has a gray ribbon that ties behind her back while the dress is adorned with a purple design. Following the line of her dress it ends with a gold trim and a slight flair. Beyond her dress, which reaches half of the distance between her waist and her knees, are purple stalking of the same color as the trim. Beyond that are her leather boots that have large slightly flared cuffs of white with gold trim. The leather itself has a purple criss cross design and a heel about an inch tall.


Personality: She is head strong and speaks with an accent because of her homeland. Her mind works much like machines but as all machines minds work, she doesn’t know everything. Her best ability is to find ways to solve problems but she could never order an attack let alone lead it. She prefers to be a scout as it is what she is best at.

She is outgoing but has become less so over time because she has found that she cannot trust as many people anymore. She hates followers of Nightmare with a passion and kill one on the spot, no questions asked. Her fear is losing her life which is a high price to pay in a war to keep a hold of yet she has managed so far.


Biography: She was born in a small town with a population of no fewer than twelve but no more then forty. Her parents were young, 23 and 24, when she was born but they were not at all arrogant. Her parents raised her properly on their own morals and the small income that they made.

Naturally, being a small town, everyone knew each other and everything that was going on at any point in time. During the rise of Nightmare and his followers, the town remained neutral, not wanting to drag themselves into the brewing war but their neutrality was seen as a weakness and an advantage to the followers of Nightmare.

Her town was attacked, 2/3 of the population being killed. Hardly anyone in the town fought because they did not practice such forms of hatred and those who did were not at all properly trained. Those who did escape never returned to the town which had been burned to the ground as an ending to the attack.

At this point, she no longer is neutral and decided that she would oppose any who believe in or was aligned with Nightmare. Leaving behind her friends and family, she set out to find others who as a force could make a stand against their common enemy. She joined a small force that got a tip from a few townspeople that Nightmare and his followers were gathering in Ostrheinsburg. Taking this information to be fact, the small group moved out.

During their travels one of them died from sickness while another simply never turned up one morning. By the time they reached the city, only three of them remained and the other two would soon be captured on charges of thievery. After losing the entire group that she had traveled with , she is now uncertain to what she will do as she still wants to defy Nightmare.

Hope it's ok. There are a few things that may be over PG-13, but I'm not sure....

Name: Izabella Plython

Nickname(s): n/a

Age: 17

Gender: Female

What Color is Your Soul?: Blue

Birthplace: Loralle Kingdom, France

Occupation: Daughter of a knight, chevaliere in training

Weapon: A specially designed rapier that is weighted and crafted only for her use. The sword's name is Daniel, named after her little brother (See picture for appearance).

Appearance: http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/oo351/PikaPow3/Anime%20Girls/Fantacy/7777g.jpg

At first glance, many people believe that Izabella is from royal decent because of her nice, beautful look. She has bright icy blue eyes and a face with very soft features. Her abdoliance apearance gives her a sweet an innocent look. Her skin is somewhat pale, but goes well with her long blonde hair, which is tied up in a braid going across the back of her head, and is held up by a gold headpiece.

Izabella wears high class clothing and a little bit of armor. She has a fine white duelers shirt with gold lineing, along ith black tights and boots that reah up to her knees. She wears a small silver pauldren on each shoulder, which is connected to a small piece of armor just above her breasts.

Personality: Izabella is a humble but kind individual. She respects others and tries not to judge one based on their strength or heritage. She is polite to others, but can be stern and even a little agressive to people she does't like. She is always polite and fair in battle, restraining from making dirty and cheap moves. However, she tends to hold back her true strength until needed, and has a tendancy to become exited and toy with her opponents at times. Izabella is also protective of her friends, but tries not to interfere with their battles unless they are truely in danger.

Biography: Izabella is the daughter of knight that served under the royal family of the Loralle Kingdom. Her father was a sucessful knight, and like most knights, was very rich. Izabella lived in an upper class world, enjoying fine foods and good education. But unlike other girls, Izabella was more interested in swordsmanship like her father than becoming a good maiden like her mother.

Even though her father was a seasoned warrior, Izabella took lessons from her mother, since her father believed that woman shouldn't be warriors. Her mother used to be a taleted weilder of the raiper when she was young, but stopped practicing when she got married. Seeing that Izabella was interested in swordplay, she decided to teach her daughter how to weild the raiper, seeing the oppertunity to resurect her own interest in swordplay.

Izabella began her training when she was 6. While she had a natural knack for the style, her mother pushed her limits. Not only did she teach her how to weild the sword but also exersized and trained her body to "become one" with the blade. Unlike most styles, this style was full of holes and gaps, only teaching the basics of how to weild the blade in a proper manner and how the footwork was performed. BUt the strange thing was, as time went on, Izabella began to fill in the gaps of the style herself!

"This style is unique to all others." Her mother told her. "While it is designed to teach the basics of fencing, it is also designed to adapt to the user's body movements, creating a style different than the next person's. In other words, it's your own personal style!"

Izabella's training was completed when she was 11. Because she had officially developed her own stlye, her father gave her a customized raiper, made of fine gold for the hilt and platinum for the blade (despite her father's beliefs about woman being warriors, he couldn't help but feel proud of his daughter for becoming so strong). The blade was specially weighted for her style, making it easy to weild and more affective than the average sword. While naming one's sword was another running tradition in the family, Izabella decided to wait to name it. She wanted to name her sword after a purpose, something that she could never let down.

Even when her mother's teachings were complete, Izabella continued to train in her own style constantly developing it to perfection.

Unlike her mother's style, which consisted of quick movements with the feet and sword, Izabella's movements consisted of twirles and creative strikes with the blade. Since she became very flexible from her training, she can swirve around blade strikes and touch the opponent with her hands without getting in the way. This led her to become quite seducive when she fights. Lifting her leg up in the air to show her panties or shoving her breasts in the opponent's face are just two of the moves she uses to distract her opponent. The style also contains creative grapple and arial moves, like spinning in a corkcrew fasion in mid-air, or putting an opponent's face between her legs and flipping him over. Leg sweeps and kicks are also common in her style.

Being an only child all of her life, Izabell had mixed feelings when her mother became pregnant. While she liked children and even hoped to be a mother someday herself, she was worried that the arrival of a new baby would make her father overlook all of her hard work. After all, it was her father that motivated her to practice swordsmanship.

But before the child was born, she promised herself that this child would be "her baby", because she was eager to modify her style further by taining another. Male or female, she promised her mother that she would train the child to be a great swordsman (or woman). After all, swordsmanship ran in the family!

The baby was born a few days after Izabella turned 13. The child was a boy, whome Izabella's mother named Daniel. when the child was born, Izabella was the first pesron to hold him. When she held tha small infant in her arms, she could feel that her future with the child was bright. It was then that she decided to name her sword: Daniel.

As time passed, Izabella spent more and more time with her little brother than she did with her training. She took care of the child while her mother was tending with the house, and did a splendid job entertaining him. She learned many things from taking care of him, and by the end of his secind month Izabella took full responcability of his life (She even tried to breastfeed him on numerous occasions. While she failed to feed the child at all, it was a good bonding experience every mother should have).

Izabella and Daniel became close as they spent more time together. When Daniel cried at night, Izabella was the only one who could scilence him. When Daniel was hungry, he wanted her breast before her mother's (It took him a while to realize that Izabella had no food to give). Daniel also found enjoyment in watching Izabella train. Even as an infant Daniel seemed fasinated by the way Izabella could weild the sword. As Daniel got older, he tried to help his older sister as best he could, from bringing her lunch to helping her with her sweaty laundry.

But unfortunately, as time went on Daniel began to show symptoms that he was sick. He ran out of breath easily and was very weak physically. He caught colds often, and had a strange appitite. Izabella quickly saw her dream of training Daniel die as his physial disability proved to limit him in many ways. Daniel had trouble with even the simplest of tasks, like lifting heavy loads or running from one place to the next. But as Izabella's dream died, a new one took it's place.

Almost stopping her practice completely, Izabella became a strong supporting figure in Daniel's life. She followed him almost everywhere, doing all of the heavy labor for him as well as carrying him when he got tired. She looked after him wherever he went, making sure he didn't hurt himself. She as very protective of his well being, and carried her sword wherever she went with him. It showed that she loved her brother more than she did swordsmanship, which came as both a dissapointment and a relief to her parents.

Izabella and her family was present during the attack of Aeon Calcos. Izabella's father was on duty during the time, so Izabella and her mother and brother were left to defend themselves. The attack happened so suddenly that no one had time to retaliate and fight back. Izabella put herself in charge of her family, and fought through many lizardmen to escape. With her brother in one arm and her sword in the other, Izabella put protecting her brother on the top of her piority list.

Her father died trying to protect the King and Queen of the kingdom in the fight. She lost her mother in the large crowds of people trying to escape. By the time Izabella and her bother got out of the city, it was already in ruins. Putting the safety of her remaining family first, she decided to leave her parents and move on.

Izabella came across a small town near the former kingdom of Loralle. She decided to settle down with her brother there, hoping to start a new life for the two of them. But something was... different about the town. There was an aura. A dark, evil aura. Unknowingest to Izabella at the time, the twon was currupted by Soul Edge, an evil sword of great power. The evil aura made Daniel's condition even worse, and he became more sickened the moer he was around the aura. It was already too late when Izabella noticed what was really going on. Daniel had been corrupted by Soul Edge.

Fearing the worst for her brother, she quickly moved out of the town and traveled to a cit near the Loralle kingdom, in hopes that she could find some help for her brother. She came across an elderly alchemist that confirmed Daniel's corruption. He told Izabella that he would take care of her brother and keep him alive long enough until Soul Edge was destroyed. Finding his kindness flattering and lucky, Isabella thanked the man and promised him that she will destroy Soul Edge.

"I promise I'll return for you." she whispered to her dying brother as he laid in bed, fast asleep. "I'll save you from Soul Edge. I promise..." She kissed Daniel on the forehead, sealing her promise to him. With a heavy but determined heart, Izabella began her quest to destroy Soul Edge. With her brother on her mind at all time, how could she back down now? Her little brother... Her precious little brother depended on her. She wan't going to let him down.

While she was traveling, she came across a lizardman who had grown a strange attraction to her. He had been trailing her from a distance ever since she left the city, but for how long after that was unknown. The lizardman was timid, hiding whenever Izabella turned aroun (Poorly, of course) and stangely bringing her food whenever she fell asleep. Even though her home was destroyed by lizardmen, she did not hold a grudge towards them. She decided that the lizardman would go away eventually, but he never did. Secretly, she wished he would.

But the lizardman wasn't the only person following her. A group of bandits had been following her as well, keeping their distance far enough so she wouldn't notice them. But when Izabella wandered into a small forest along the way to Ostrheinsburg, the bandits made their move.

They jumped her at night, when she just got ready to go to sleep. There were about five of them in total, and all were weilding weapons. They caught her off guard. Izabella tried to reach for her sword to defend herself, but the bandits were very quick. One of them snatched away her sword and kicked her in the face, stunning her. Another got her by the arms and held her up, trapping her arms so she couldn't move them. While one was searching her bag for anything useful, the one that kicked her tore the armor above her breasts off and ripped her shirt open, reveiling her naked belly. They were gogn to rape her!

The man holding her slammed her onto the ground as he took off her ripped shirt completely. Izabella screamed and fought, but the large man was too much for to handle with her strength alone. Her boots went next. Then they undid her hair. She continued to scream despite the men starting to hit her, screaming for someone to help. But she knew there was no one there. They were going to rape her, then...

The lizardman that was following her heard her screams. The screams of the woman he "fell in love with". When he saw the men tearing off her clothes, he was enraged! The moster lashed out at the man on top of her, picking him up from behind and throwing him away efortlessly. The man who kicked Isabella was the next to go. Because his pants were halfway down his legs, he couldn't escape the wrath of the lizardman. The lizardman palmed his face with his large hand and sqeezed his head tightly. Using one arm to pick him up, he slammed his head on a nearby tree multiple times. By the time he had picked the man up, the others retaliated and charged at the lizardman. It was three on one! There was no possible way he could win...

Not.

The lizardman saw the three men charge at him. He turned around with the bloodied bandit still in his hand, and threw him away. At the same time he chomped down on one of the bandit's head, fitting in completely inside his mouth. He lifted him up and swung him around, letting the blood spew from the victim's neck. The other bandits stabbed at the lizardman, their weapons imapling his skin but not seeming to affect him. The forst bandit that lizardman threw was up again, this time with his mace. He charged at the lizardman, but didn't notice that Isabella had gotten up and rechived her sword. Isabella jumped onto the man's back, and wrapped her legs around his neck. She tightly held him for a second before flipping over, taking the man with her. The large bandit was now on his back, and Isabella was now the person on top. Althogh her victory was short lived, as the big man was not stunned by her manuver. He swung his mace at her, but Isabella dodged by flipping off of him, making sure to "accidentaly" hit him between the legs as she went.

The lizardman let go of the man inside his mouth, flinging him across the battle site. He made short work of the other two bandits, slamming his fists into each of their skulls. Now all that was left was the bandit with the mace. He was swinging it at Isabella, who was dodging it with ease but at the same time had no openings for an attack. The lizardman charged at the man, catching on of his swings at the wrist. He stopped it immediately, and grabbed the man's shoulder and ripped his arm out of the shoulder. OF course the man screamed and fell back, holding the stub of an arm that was puring out with blood. But lizardman wasn't done yet. He charged at the man again, this time tackling him. He slammed his fists is a jackhammer style into his skull, making it collapse as his brains burst out of his temples. It was an epic battle indeed.

Isabella had a pretty good scare in the past few minutes. After the man was dead, she dropped down to the ground and leaned on a tree, her face filled with shock and horror. She curld up into a ball and started to cry, the fact that she was almost raped scaring her greatly. What would Daniel think of her if he saw her raped by those men?

What kind of mother am I!? she thought. But it suprised her that she referred to herself as Daniels's mother. Does she really think of him as her son?

When she looked back up at the bloody scene, she saw the lizardman kneeling right in front of her, panting like a dog with a smile. He just kneeled there, staring at her with that goofy smile. He was coverd in blood, had just killed five men, and acted like it was nothing? Well, he WAS a lizardman of course. This stuff probably didn't phaze him at all.

But at his feet was Isabella's torn shirt. He had brought it to her while she was crying! The lizardman puched the shirt towards her with his blood-covered claws. Isabella didn't know what to make of this! She looked at the shirt, then at the lizardman, then back at the shirt. But for some reason, she was not suprised that the lizardman did this.

Isabella moved to a different location to sleep that night. When she dressed herself and gathered up her belongings, she left the bloodied grounds. The lizardman followed her like he always did, staying a good amount of distance behind her but still noticeably there.

Isabella felt a little guilty for not thanking the lizardman for saving her life. When she set up camp, she invited the lizardman to stay with her near the fire instead of hanging onlne near the trees.

The two of them stayed up all night together. Isabella told him about her brother and her kingdom being destroyed, as well as her quest to destroy Soul Edge. Even though the lizardman didn't speak human language, she had a feeling that he knew what she was saying.

The next morning, Isabella named the lizardman Charels, and gave him a large bandana to wrap around his neck. The odd pair started to travel together from then on, supporting each other as they traveled to Ostrheinsburg.

Read the Rules?: No. (Arcturus)

Others: Even though she hasn't been around Charles for that long, she can strangely understand what he says. She is the only one that can.

Charles is very big for a lizardman, standing one foot taller than the rest (about the same hight as the Lizardman from the games). he has blue scales with a white belly and red scales surrounding his eyes and claws. He has a normal lizard head (The head from SC I and II) with small spikes running down his back. He wears a tan cloth around his neck that Isabella gave him, but has no armor or weapons.

Posted by: Glacicle Sep 26 2010, 07:49 PM

I'm gonna try to post right now, didn't have time earlier *-*

Posted by: Carlissa Sep 29 2010, 09:08 AM

*Looks around* Is it my turn to post? I don't know what to write though...

Posted by: Darkrow Sep 29 2010, 03:55 PM

Well, just make your characters head to/enter Ostrheinsburg.

Or they could meet other characters.

Posted by: Carlissa Sep 30 2010, 08:40 AM

K, I posted. Hope it's sufficient.

Posted by: Darkrow Sep 30 2010, 09:28 PM

It most certainly is.

I do believe those she saw are Emiko and Mayumi, correct?

Posted by: Carlissa Oct 1 2010, 06:49 AM

Whatever would be more amusing for you...

Note: Next weekend, the 9th, 10th, and 11th of October, I will be heading to the mountain cabin. There is not internet and will only be able to get on the internet at one point during this three day trip. Thankfully it is not extremely long so I will not be causing a great problem but do note that I will be absent.

Thanks for telling us Wishie

Posted by: Darkrow Oct 7 2010, 04:05 PM

Got a four day weekend. If I don't post by Tuesday, you are allowed to punt me.

Deal? Deal.

Posted by: Glacicle Oct 7 2010, 07:53 PM

Posted by: Carlissa Oct 10 2010, 05:42 PM

Posted by: Glacicle Oct 11 2010, 11:23 AM

Nope. I'm just waiting for Darkie to post tomorrow, and if he doesn't I'll punt him

Posted by: Darkrow Oct 11 2010, 11:24 AM

Posted by: Carlissa Oct 13 2010, 08:02 AM

*Punts again*

Would it kill you to post?

Posted by: Darkrow Oct 13 2010, 03:54 PM

Posted by: Carlissa Oct 13 2010, 04:07 PM

*Punts again*

You know, it could be just because I likw punting you XD

Posted by: Darkrow Oct 13 2010, 04:08 PM

I am not a football!

Posted by: Wishful Jirachi Oct 13 2010, 04:14 PM

lol, for all we know Dark, you could be. =P

Posted by: Darkrow Oct 13 2010, 04:36 PM

I am not a football. XD

Who is that "creature"? Is it Kraylle or the Lizardman?

Posted by: Wishful Jirachi Oct 13 2010, 04:43 PM

The gray one, yours. Not the lizardman.

Posted by: Darkrow Oct 13 2010, 04:44 PM

He's not a creature! XD

Posted by: Wishful Jirachi Oct 13 2010, 05:14 PM

lol, All that I got out of the post was a gray creature thing, lol

Posted by: Darkrow Oct 13 2010, 05:26 PM

It's his nickname. XD

Posted by: Wishful Jirachi Oct 13 2010, 07:04 PM

I found that out after looking at the profile, lol

Posted by: Carlissa Oct 13 2010, 09:20 PM

*Punts*

It takes more than a twig to distract ol' Charels!

*Punts again*

Wee! This is fun!

Yay, found my picture for Sophie. It was broken.

Posted by: Glacicle Oct 16 2010, 08:04 PM

OKAY CARLISSA... please stop punting Darkie... He posted before tuesday...

Anyway, Since I'm too lazy to actually read some profiles... Does anyone mind gicving me an idea where everyone is? Is everyone in the city already?

Mary is in the middle of the city, meaning it might take a while for her to actually see someone xD

Posted by: Darkrow Oct 16 2010, 08:10 PM

I believe that Kraylle and Rein are together.

Both of Wishie's characters are together and saw Trofim.

Emiko, Mayumi, Izabella, Charles, Zahira and Sophie are all at the same general spot.

Larke and Natalie are inside Ostrheinsburg.

Posted by: Luxord Oct 16 2010, 09:47 PM

Would you mind saving me a spot whilst I get to work on my sign-up? It is 3.17am so I need sleep Chao.

Posted by: Carlissa Oct 19 2010, 10:01 AM

*nevermind*

Posted by: Glacicle Oct 20 2010, 05:14 PM

... Did Larke and whoever reach the middle yet? XD

Posted by: Luxord Oct 20 2010, 05:34 PM

I hate my laptop, I saved my sign up in word, but apparently I didn't 5 pages wasted. I have way too much work to do, so I am going to leave this roleplay before I even start, sorry Dark!

Posted by: Darkrow Oct 21 2010, 06:24 PM

It's alright Lux, I can understand. X3

And Glacie, they aren't, but that doesn't mean you can't see them. |D

Posted by: Wishful Jirachi Oct 21 2010, 06:28 PM

Dark.... did you reply to me yet?

Posted by: Glacicle Oct 22 2010, 03:26 PM

Ooooh... Guess that means I might be posting soon <3
