Aegis Masamune -------------------- Aegis stared the man down in disgust (haha get it ). He looked strong, but it wasn't anything he couldn't handle. "I would like to save someone of your caliber for another time. However, I these guys are nothing more than rag dolls," Aegis paused stepping up to Vortludo and getting in his face. "Don't disappoint me," Aegis taunted back. Ren Hakkae -------------- Ren smirked. "You are right. Perhaps I should take the life of a hardened mercenary such as yourself as well," Ren replied. She had done her research on Draksis - well, mercenaries in general. Without a second thought, Ren swung her sword at the shield. Her swing created a razor wind that added to the damage, breaking the shield if Draksis doesn't move back in time.

Nero & Asia ------------------ Powerful blows were traded between Asia and Nero, creating a slight change in wind direction. The two jumped back a few steps from each other. "I will take your crystal!" Asia shouted charging forward at Nero. Nero quickly side-stepped Asia's attack, and returned it with a kick of his own, sending her into the air a little. Asia quickly recovered and launched herself downwards with a claw aimed at Nero. Nero jumped backwards, avoiding the attack. Parts of the roof went flying as Asia pulled her hand out of the hole in the roof she created. This would be a tough fight. Ren Hakkae ------------------ "One, two, three..." Ren counted as she sliced each person one by one and catching their necklaces on the blade of her sword. She was beginning to get bored of this whole tournament thing. "Ninety already huh?" Ren said stuffing them in her pocket. This was getting too easy. She stopped in front of Draksis. It was almost as the commotion of people attacking others, were leaving them alone. Almost, like.. a standoff! However, Ren began to walk past Draksis to fight other people. Aegis Masamune ------------------ "Hahaha! Yes! Burn!" Aegis shouted as several people fell victim to a black will-o-wisp that was cast from Aegis' spell book. "This is too easy! Come on! Give me more of a challenge!" Aegis shouted.

Done! And yes that is fine (seeing that you've done it already ) Ohhhh yesssss

Nero Aionios --------------- "Down you go!" Nero shouted as he threw a man over the roof. He quickly slipped off the guy's crystal on his target's way down. Nero looked towards the square behind him. The once so beautiful Kingdom of Ashford was being reduced to destruction as the riot continued. Was this how things usually were in this tournament? Nero shook his head from these thoughts. He needed to focus. In the distance, he saw a weird looking fox prancing around towards him and the exit. She must've been thinking the same thing as he. "Hey you!" A high pitched voice sounded closely behind Nero. Nero looked back to block an incoming kick to his face. The mysterious fighter flipped over Nero's arm and took a fighting stance. "You're pretty good," The high pitch voice said to Nero. Nero got a good look at the mysterious fighter. "A girl?" Nero asked. The girl smirked. "Huh. Never seen a girl fight before eh?" She asked sarcastically. Nero observed her style. "Tiger style huh?" Nero asked as he assumed the Leopard. "A martial artist as well huh?" The girl assumed. She then bowed at Nero. "I am Asia. Asia Lionheart," Asia said. Nero understood that it was custom for a martial artist to bow towards his/her opponent. However, he did not follow that. "Nero," Nero replied, still assuming his stance.

As I would like to do in my last RP, I will create some notable fighters that can be challenged at anytime! However, depending on their rank, your character may or may not be able to defeat them. However, do your best if you still wish to challenge them! (If you want to challenge a character, let me know in this thread, and I will bring them to you) Also, unless the npc character is dead, check back on this thread regularly to get an update on each character's powers.

Ashford Castle -------------------- The busy streets of Ashford town became busier as the Quinquennial Ingens Locus was soon to begin. Adventurers, fighters, and wizards of every kind, all over the globe, could be seen filling these streets, buying goods and just waiting for the king to announce the start of the huge tournament. After a few minutes, however, a huge hush swept over the crowd of people, as the king could now be seen on the balcony of his castle looming over the people. Energetically, the people hollered in joy and quickly quieted down. The Ingens Locus was soon to begin. Nero Aionios -------------------- Nero huffed and puffed, doubling over to his knees. He had been running the rest of the way and finally made it safely to the event. However, Ashford wasn't as noisy and busy as he thought it was. It was quiet - too quiet. Nevertheless, he quickly blended in with the crowd to see what was going on. Ashford -------------------- "Greetings fellow humans! I am Leo Lazura, King of Ashford! I have come to bid all of you good luck today!" King Leo spoke. There were magical projectors around the castle that could help him project his voice so that everyone could hear. "Like all the other years, I will go over the rules. Each registered person is given a magic crystal that is worth ten points. The overall goal is to take as many crystals as you can by defeating your opponent. There are "Valor Bosses" around the world and if you defeat one, you will gain a Valor crystal. These are crystals that are worth 50 points and can be divided among people (if one is in a group). The tournament is planet-wide. This means that the whole planet is a battleground for registered fighters. Those who accumulate up to 1000 crystals can compete in the Grandeur Battle of the Strongest, which is a tournament for those considered the best of the best," King Leo paused and nodded to several castle wizards. They nodded back and raised their wands, beginning to cast a spell. Suddenly, a necklace appeared around each person's neck attached with a crystal. "By now, you should all have a necklace attached with a crystal. This signifies that you all are registered for this tournament," King Leo announced. "Usually, we would register your names in an ordered system. However, we're doing things different this year. Each and every person is eligible to participate in this year's Ingens Locus, as the strongest cannot be picked if only the registered can compete," King Leo paused once again. "From here on out, I declare that this year's Ingens Locus has begun!" King Leo exited with those words. The crowd roared and broke out into a riot. It would make the most sense to fight a mass of people, all armed with crystals. However, Nero decided to attempt to leave. He actually wanted to start his adventure before losing or gaining a crystal. Nero jumped on a near-by rooftop, and ran to make his way outside.

For the love of.. Thanks for telling me.. I'm not sure how to attach saved pictures here

Accepted.

So I realized the link to the map wasn't working.. so here it is.. We'll gather at Ashford Castle. I used Donjon to generate this map http://kh13.com/forum/topic/89090-world-of-grandia-ingens-locus-series-rp/ It's up! Here is the link!

Story ------------------------------------ Here, in this grand and distant world from earth, both humans and mythical creatures live in harmony and constant competition in order to prove which race is the most superior to them all. Every 5 years, the worldwide government of Grandia hosts a planet-wide tournament to see who would emerge as "Endymion," or the king of the best, fighters in the realm. Fighters would embark on a long 2-year journey in order to defeat the strongest fighters and win the tournament. (Expect many plot-twists and surprises!) Sign-Ups are still open! ------------------------------------------- http://kh13.com/forum/topic/88866-world-of-grandia-ingens-locus-series-sign-ups-and-discussion/ Lets Get Started! ------------------------------------------ "Roarrrr!!!" The Basilisk screeched as it approached Nero and an old, helpless lady. He had seen this creature on his way to Ashford Castle as it attacked the lady. Being the gentlemen, he stepped in and fought the Basilisk off. The creature moved through the trees in an headstrong attempt of charging through them. Nero ran towards the beast, jumped upwards, and back-kicked the beast in the face, sending it flying through a tree. In fear and shock, the Basilisk quickly ran from Nero. He quickly rushed back to the old lady's side. "Hey, are you okay?" He asked her. "Ohh I could've handled it! These ole bones ain't givin' out yet!" The old lady replied as she walked ahead. "But you are strong boy. You should enter the Ingens Locus," The lady shouted. Nero blushed a little from the praise. "I'm actually on my way there to participate," Nero said catching up with her. "Really now? Well then. You should get a move on. It starts at noon," The old lady waved at him. Nero checked the sun. He would always check the time by the position of the sun. His eyes widened at the sight. "CRAP! It's almost noon!" Nero shouted. "Go on ahead. I can take care of myself," The old lady said. "Thanks!" Nero shouted, now on the road ahead of the old lady. He was almost late!

You're accepted! (Creepy character )

Alright I don't want to let this die. So I will start once everyone says they're ready!

Around the same time the witch was speaking to the group, Uranus arrived on the scene confused and baffled. "First I see a lunar eclipse, then a fox, and then a witch, and now I'm here. What a day," Uranus sighed. He walked around the terrain for a few minutes and started to see bodies looking up to what seemed like a woman dressed in a robe. "I'm not interested in fairy tales," Uranus said thinking to go solo. However, he decided to sit by a near-by tree away from the group, but in the vicinity of the witch's voice, to hear what the witch was talking about. At the very least, he needed an explanation of this place before going out on his own.

Name: Uranus Aionios Age: 19 Gender: Male appearance:http://img-cache.cdn.gaiaonline.com/1182ca37029b97f87df007d549968c09/http://i561.photobucket.com/albums/ss59/Yokoalchemist/Akito2.png Weapon(s): None Tailed aura color: Citron 2nd Tailed aura Ability/power: Huge boost in strength, speed, durability, and ability effect resistance 3rd Tailed aura Ability/power: Nature element manipulation and synchronization (ability effect resistance increases) 4th Tailed aura Ability/power: Green 5th Tailed aura Ability/power: Energy conjuration/manipulation and eye power amplification (Eye power also increases overall stats) 6th Tailed aura Ability/power: (He has not learned how to use the 6th tails yet (not until later on in the RP)) Eye power amplification on a Cosmic scale 8th Tailed aura Ability/power: (He has not learned how to use the 8th tails yet (not until EVEN LATER on in the RP )) Immense stat and life/destructive force/power boost History: Uranus pretty much grew up in a world renown Observatory as both his parents worked as lead scientists there. One would say that he had more of a "deprived childhood" as a lot of his time was spent reading multiple scientific books while the rest of his time was spent in devout training, in different forms of Karate, and meditation. When he wasn't spending his time reading, he would spend time training and meditating in nature so he had a well established connection with nature itself. His test scores and IQ test scores skyrocketed past current human comprehension and he quickly started his work as one of the lead scientists in the Observatory at age 16. On his 19th birthday, as he spent his time meditating outside on the prairie not too far from his home, he stumbled upon the red moon and fox. He wondered at the sight and upon seeing the witch, he quickly fell asleep. Personality: Mysterious, intellectual, and wise. Witch Hunt!

Awesome! Yayy Graceee Any and all types of magical creatures exist in Grandia each with their own set abilities. It is possible to control and possess one depending on the willpower/spirit of the person. That being said, there are creatures that can take possession of a character as well. So to answer your question, yes! A. The ability is fine. I like the idea. B. That is fine as well. I was planning to apply the same concept to my own character.

It's all good. Accepted!

You are accepted! You forgot to read the rules bro!

That will work actually! I have no problem with how soon he gets more abilities.. as long as it's nothing major

Hm.. Can you start with one spell for now and buy/find the other magic books/spells you wanted to add to your character? You can make as many as you want! Thanks a lot Scrap!

So after a long and extensive brainstorming session, I decided to make another open-world adventure RP! Hope this fancy's everyone's taste. P.S. - I am also trying to make a Byond game based off of this RP.. So if there's anyone who can help with iconning, it'd be much appreciated Story ------------------------------------ Here, in this grand and distant world from earth, both humans and mythical creatures live in harmony and constant competition in order to prove which race is the most superior to them all.

Done

Awe.. I kinda wanted him to be a substitute for my last character in the original Athanatos RP. Oh well.. Will being a lieutenant be permissible? Or a little lower?

I remember this one! I think I'll start a new character though. If you're still accepting characters.... Full Name: Talon Spear Age: 20 Gender: Male Side (either Esper or beast): Esper (For beasts only) Species: (For Espers only) Ability: Atmokinesis ​Appearance: http://s458.photobucket.com/user/Elris4/media/ad9b672d7b38b5862eab4a5ebb25442f31f.png.html Occupation(s): Lieutenant of the Special Forces in Athanatos (if permissible) Siblings (If any): many... MANY Hobbies: Art, Exploring Strengths: Trained hard by his father, Odin Spear, and by the military of the leading church of the modern world in martial arts, acrobatics, weaponry, and various educational studies. Weaknesses: His lack of time during exploring and adventuring and magical items. Character Background: Born with family ties in the world's leading church, Talon, along with his many brothers and sisters, were raised, educated, and trained in the church. However, after many cases where Talon would see hypocrisy in the church, he left at the age of 15, and sailed the seas. Talon was recruited to the most notorious pirate group at 16 after he killed their top 7th fighter on the ship. He soared through their ranks after and at 17, inherited the leadership after the previous leader died of sickness. From since, he lead his crew in many expeditions, sea fights, and even a naval war, all victorious. At age 20, he met up with his brother, Lance, who had been tracking him for ages, and after a short (very short) battle, Talon was sent back to the church. Because his face was never really shown in wanted posters (because he was careful to always cover it up), Talon was considered a simple explorer. Months later, because of his expertise and experience (and because Lance was investigating something himself at the time), he was sent to Athanatos. The church's military highly recommended Talon as the Chief of the Special Forces in Athanatos, thus, it was granted. Talon has only spent a couple of months in Athanatos currently. The citizens call him,"Thunder Ruler". Personality: He is usually about his work and will finish any job given to him.. if he accepts. Adventurous, tends to be over adventurous Wants: After sailing the seas for a long time, Talon searches for something... more. He cannot explain or describe it, but he knows what it is when he gets it. Problems:His adventurous attitude usually causes him to lose his direction and sense of time. NIGHT

I think I'll start over Name: Jin Pyros Age: 20 Gender: Male Origin Star(Raytos/Vaneté): Vanete Power/Ability: Plasma Appearance:http://s86.photobucket.com/user/dArkNighT_011/media/anime/932999_20071015_screen028.jpg.html Occupation (Optional): Martial Artist Personality: Straightforward, goofy in times allotted, calm and collected Bio: Master in several different fighting styles, including Qigong, Jin has been keeping a low profile and has been living in a forest house with his master, Pakura. He been training everyday under her and is currently getting the permission to venture outside of the forest.

Awe I'm sorry to hear that you're leaving. Thanks for the support! You won't be forgotten! Yes you can! Alright well I'm going to do some serious story building before the next one comes out! I think it'll be up before the weekend
