Aisha, slight error:

Not to mention the bestial troll-wolf chewing on a mechanical disk before it was destroyed altogether

It was given a quick chomp, but it's not destroyed (yet). Just a minor detail.

And my stuff is suspicious? Heeeeee...

Heh, sorry.  Scanning through the posts, the tone of the mood implied destroyed.  I'll tone it down then. 

[Myr]

Ah, I keep forgetting to look at this too! But no biggie-looking over my replies it does sound rather like he did 'kill' the poor thing...

And truth to tell, I did mention an alternate line of probability with Glitch that'd been brought on by an odd moment of clarity amidst a state of punch-drunken awareness...Hmm, I should write that up just 'cause sometime...

Heheheh, and I'm only evil if you pay me to be evil...I think.

Hello fellow RPers,

Just giving everyone the heads up that i'm helping a friend move to cali, and i'm leaving tomorrow. I'll be gone for a week, but i'm bringing my laptop.  Internet connections may be a bit spotty, but i'll update when i get the chance.  I should be able to reply at least every other day so although delayed, i probably won't completely disappear.  Sorry for the inconvenience to you all.

[Gareeku]

sorry if i'm being stupid, but what did Raek mean when he spoke to Gar and Aisha?

[Myr]

Er, sorry for the confusion!

What he meant was he's willing to be hired for work-kind of like a sword-for-hire, since he doesn't really have the aptitude to be a real adventurer on his own (Too likely to get frustrated at something, for one, and...well, he is a creature afterall...).

But...that's just how he talks-hard to make sense of at times unless you ask him to say it differently.

If you wonder what he meant by 'meat-sticker'...he's talking about swords, arrows, things like that.

[Sunblink]

Hey guys. I'm going through a massive museless writer's block that's really draining a lot out of me, and I've been feeling kind of VERY FUCKING stressed as a result, so my first post is probably going to take a while.

This applies to a lot of my RPs at the time to every RP I'm in, frankly. So I do apologize. I just can't write lately.

EDIT (20/05/09): Edited to sound more appropriate. I am VERY FUCKING STRESSED. The slightest thing is setting me off.

[Angel]

Yikes. Well, good luck Keaton.

[Myr]

Ouch, Keaton. All I can honestly say is I know your pain, being a writer myself...hopefully things tone down a bit for you though. I do have one suggestion that might help a little, however. Look up the song 'Mask' from the artist Keiko Matsui...

[ShadesFox]

good luck Keaton.  Having issues myself here.  I do have no nascent idea though...

[Yugo]

Name: Elenor Jyraneth
Gender: Female
Species/Race: Wolf/Succubus
Age: 1020

Physical Description
Height: 5'8''
Weight: 130 .lbs
Eyes: Cobalt blue
Fur Color: Peerless white all over, with a tail of the same color.
Hair: A solid, steely white, normally worn in a high ponytail that hangs down to about the small of her back.
Distinguishing Features: Contrasting her stark-white fur are a series of what appear to be sky-blue tattoos forming beautiful curlicues, twists, and various symbols on her entire body, including her face, ears, and tail. They appear to be, for all intents and purposes, deliberate, and a discerning mage might tell that they are inherently magical in nature. Her wings are leathery and bat-like, shaded similarly to her fur and edged with a black trim, although these are usually kept hidden in public. Although she is a shapeshifter, and can use her wings to change her outfit and appearance at will, Elenor's preferred clothing is a long strapless black dress adorned with blue lining.

Personality: On the outside, to those she is not familiar with, Elenor can be rather unsociable and secretive, politely pushing away attempts at conversation and introduction. While part of this is to maintain a low-profile and remain mostly inconspicuous, it is primarily because she does not really know how to genuinely acquaint herself with others not of her own clan. Decades and centuries of espionage and inquisitorial conduct followed by several more in isolation have made her accustomed to a life of secrecy and darkness, as real socialization in an unfamiliar society is stll quite alien to her. When confronted, she inadverdantly turns the tables, attempting to probe her acquaintances for whatever information she can gather, purely out of habit.

To the people she knows, which are dreadfully few and far between, Elenor is playful, talkative, and often very motherly and caring, even overprotective at times. She has nearly infinite patience, derived from years of serving a fickle and capricious leader, but becomes vindictive when she or her companions are openly threatened. Given enough time and frustration, these fits can blossom into a vendetta, but only in the gravest of incidents. As one might expect, Elenor is not the least bit phased by death, although her former habit of soul-stealing now disturbs her quite deeply. She is still in a time of personal crisis, as her entire belief system has broken apart and fallen down around her, leaving her unsure of what to do and where to go.

History: If one digs deeply enough, a determined researcher or historian will find accounts of the horror and terrible crimes inflicted upon the rest of the world by the Jyraneth clan, but Elenor herself has fallen into the dustbin of history, presumed dead by the rest of the world as most of her clan are, and she intends to keep up that myth for as long as she can. Formerly wanted for murder, espionage, soul-murder, and vast slew of other crimes, Elenor has blazed a long and infamous history for the centuries she was active within her clan, most of which she is vastly ashamed of, and will either remain silent or lash out furiously if asked personal questions regarding the matter, depending upon her mood.

After a few centuries of isolation, planning, and personal reflection, Elenor has struck out into the world once again, seeking her daughters, vainly hoping against hope that they might have survived her clan's decimation, although she knows there is almost no chance of succeeding. She will viciously hang onto her only fellow clan member and traveling companion, Katherine Jyraneth, doing her absolute best to watch over and protect the emotionally unstable (and quite possibly insane) succubus. Among these goals, she also has a deep desire to find some way of using her race's abilities to heal minds rather than break and extract information from them, to help Katherine and others, but so far all of her research has proved unsuccessful. As for her association with the Jyraneth Clan itself, only Katherine knows exactly how deeply her involvement with Jyraneth went, and she is as likely to discuss that as her own history.

Combat Abilities
Shadowstorm: Besides the obvious gifts such as wing-tentacles that all 'Cubi are granted with, Elenor's primary tool in physical combat is a powerful magical staff known as Shadowstorm. Gifted to her by Jyraneth herself upon her elevation to Judicator, it is a fearsome weapon in her hands. Crafted from iron, black like its namesake, it is nearly 6 feet long, with a gold tip at the butt, and a pentagram approximately the width of a human head at the top. Thick golden hoops pass through the star's gaps, jangling musically as the staff twists, flips, and floats through the air. The head has an unhealthy glow to it, like a form of non-light, and is the focus of the weapon's energy. The magic suffusing the implement can carve through some of the most tenacious materials, and so passes through flesh and bone with ease, seperating limbs and muscle tissue from its victim with little effort on its owner's part. When wielding her prized weapon, Elenor puts on a wonderfully acrobatic display, twirling the staff like a baton with a set rhythm and intent honed by decades to centuries of training and practice.

Magic: When it comes to magical abilities, Elenor tends to be very utilitarian. A jack of all trades and master of none, she does not wield particularly powerful magic, preferring to have the comfort of being able to fall back on her vast arrray of intermediate spells to assist herself, assist others, destroy, wound, or create a slew of other possible effects. Unfortunately, when faced with a more skilled and specialized mage, Elenor's magic tends to fail her, and is often reserved for defensive and healing purposes. The most powerful magic Elenor might summon is the Jyraneth Clan's trademark shadow-magic, but she lacks the training and desire to use it for killing and disabling her opponents, instead preferring to utilize it for more deceptive and stealthy purposes, such as hiding herself or creating visual illusions to frighten and confuse enemies.

Other Abilities of Note Like all 'cubi, Elenor can shapeshift, thought-read, and wield her wings as deadly tentacle-weapons. Physically, Elenor is frail, compensating for her lack of strength and endurance with her natural speed, agility, determination, and fury.

Trivia
-Although Keaton seriously advises Elenor to get herself a Warp-Aci, she lacks one, instead preffering to rely upon her own strength and ability rather than a strange ally such as a Warp-Aci.



I kind of copped out on her history, but I needed to finish this profile. Here's hoping she's accepted.

[techmaster-glitch]

Yugo added to character index. Yugo and Kafziel awaiting confirmed approval.

Also waiting on a link to the Character Index to be added to the first post...hint-hint, nudge-nudge...

[Boog]

Kafzeil: Approved. Oooh, I can do things with this character... *grins*

Yugo: Approved, and about damn time 

[Kafzeil]

Oh...and what kinds of things are you plotting?i think  we might operating on the same wavelength...*grins back*

[Cogidubnus]

I will point out that any words of actions of Giles do not necessarily reflect the thoughts or intentions of his creator. - Basically, Giles is sort of rough and I don't mean to really offend anybody with him.

Edit: (I couldn't resist Tipod! I regret notheeeeeeeng!)

[Mao]

Kafzeil, just a note:  I'm not sure what would make your character assume Mao is blind, or a rabbit.  His features are pretty mixed between feline and hare and aside from the fact that he generally doesn't open his eyes,  there wouldn't be any indication that he can't see... because were he to bother to, he could see just fine.

[Tipod]

No offense taken, Cog. I pretty much expected Payden to get a reaction like that sooner or later

[Kafzeil]

Jinx is generally one to make quick judgements, and not one to analyze until he actually needs to. He merely assumed because Mao's eyes are closed, he can't see, and assumes because he doesn't open, there's something wrong with them. I could change it if you want.

And he said 'rabbit...thing', meaning he's not really to sure what to make of Mao. The hare part is what Jinx assumed he was at first, before noticing something was off. As for the hare and rabbits are different thing...Jinx never cared much for the details. 

[Angel]

Regarding Payden and Cog: Typing what I did felt strangely cathartic. I think it was relief at giving Kali the chance to let off some steam and protect poor Mykst from being caught in the crossfire of a fight. So thank you for that opportunity, and no hard feelings I hope.

(Translation: Don't hurt me.)

Myskt: How many assholes we got around here anyhow?!
*Most of the bar stands up*
Myskt: I knew it, we're surrounded by assholes.

(Also, it is strangely cathartic! But this is probably for the best in the long run. )

No worries, I just wanted to know.  It didn't seem like that much time had passed so I wasn't sure where he got the info to come to that, but given that he jumps to conclusions quite easily it makes sense.

[techmaster-glitch]

Giving Shades a little nudge there, or did you two work this out beforehand, Hobo?

[ShadesFox]

There was a little prepost work yes ;p

Quite.

[Boog]

Important detail of note, as judging by some people's posts I think there might be a little confusion over this. The town and the Inn are separate from the City. As mentioned, nobody lives there on purpose. The town was built close enough to reap the benefits of tourism, but they keep their distance.

[Teh_Hobo]

ah. I will modify my post then.

[ShadesFox]

Fixed up my post as well.

[Cogidubnus]

Tipod, do you want Giles to start setting the bar on fire?

[Tipod]

Not necessarily, but I think Payden would jump on any excuse to arrest Giles at this point
