Tales of Takello

[Silentwolf]

Recruitment is now underway for this Rp.

***

Takello is a magical world much different from any other ever heard of throughout history.
From the very beginning, there have been good and evil forces throughout the world. Since the gods created it, there have been strong forces from the depths of hell disputing their authority.
A long time ago, a battle between heaven and hell raged, and the one continent on Takello was shattered into several continents covering the earth, with climates not unlike our earth.
Heaven defeated the forces of hell through the use of a courageous Hero known as Garon. The legend of Garon's sword still lives on in old wives tales, for after the great battle Garon faded away and his mighty blade fell to Takello and landed in a field, soon engulfed in the earth. The magical plain of Garon remains unfound.

There are many races on Takello, Many good and many bad, and some who choose to remain neutral in the eternal stuggle.

The Humans, since days of old, have progressed as a strong yet not always smart race, and rule much of the land in conjunction with the elder race of the elves, who are not an unusual sight in the world.

Orcs exist, as well as Dragons and mighty sorcerers, strong efreets and Genies and many, many others, races too plentiful to name. Mention your race when you post your character biography, and wait for confirmation before use.

Our story begins with the Rogue Kaedric, in the town of Karel in the Northern Empire, a place under the rule of the King Jargas, Tyranny aplenty there. The King is a ruthless warmonger and has killed many innocents in his corruption. The Northern empire was once a wonderful, peaceful kingdom but ever since the King's chief advisor, a sorcerer known as Conn, returned from his trip into the Gorlack ranges in the furthest North the kingdom had become corrupt and violent, and the kind has changed in a way never seen before. The mission that Conn was sent on was rumoured to be a mission of most importance, one of magical nature.

Our first character mentioned above, Kaedric, is waiting patiently at an Inn, in the hope that some adventurers will respond to his poster's call and come to him. Although he is confident in his abilities to do everything independently, he wishes for some brave adventurers to join him in his quest, to alert the leaders to the intention of his King to go to war before anyone can act to stop him.
Afterall, one adventurer alone is a lot less convincing than a party, and to Kaedric has a slight reputation - he may need back up to convince the Southern kingdom of the North's intended invasion.

Kaedric knows that there are many dangers in the world, but the world is changing. Ice Dragons and Drakes are migrating from the polar ice caps and Rain forests are drying up. Magical auras are changing and the through the Aurora Gallatus, on clear still nights, wing beats of Angels can be heard as the gods call them from one place to another. Indeed, the Heavens are busy, and rumours of dark creatures attacking villages in the far east, and inhuman screams echoing across the hills in the night, possibly mean that hell is just as active.

Another war is coming, bigger than ever before, and this time, the realms of Mortals will be in the thick of it.

Intending to go south into the elvan Kingdom of Lennoc, Kaedric is prepared to pay for the passes required to get out of the kingdom for his comrades, all there needs to be now, is someone to reply to the poster, anyone who is replying due to arrive this very night.

Taking a deep swig from his clay tankard, Kaedric awaits comers in the inn of Karel in the Northern Empire, the smell of smoke and ale laden on the oaken beams of the snow topped building.

This, is Tales of Takello.

[Silentwolf]

Name: Kaedric

Age: 27

Race: Human

Height: 6'

Weight: 125 lbs

Job: Combat Mage/Item Aquisition agent (Thief)/Assasin

Preferred weapons: Several daggers constantly upon his bodice, short sword

Preferred armour: Light Mithral armor, travel cloaks

Brief description: 6', medium build, Tanned skin. Black hair and eyes which change with his moods between Slivers of Ice and Tongues of flame. Clothes often vary due to his profession. Doesn't like speaking of his past. Has a proficiency with fire spells, and lower lever abilities with other types of magic.

Brief history: Born to a street wench in the town of Ven, he was sold to a slaver who beat and mistreated him across the years. His rage built until his magic exploded and scoured the whole town, destroying good and bad life alike. through his trades he became remarkably masterful of the dagger and short sword, but prefers his daggers to his sword.

Job Description:
1. Combat mages are proficient in the skill of hand to hand combat but are much stronger with magic. Their ability with hand to hand allows them to be flexible, either warriors or mages at their choice.

2. Item Aquistition agents are often unnoticed in their dealing and come by items and coin with remarkable ease. Have disguises for almost any occasion, these agile folk make enemies easily. Kaedric has the abiliy to make himself a shade, a mere ghost unseen by mortal eye, which makes his ability at this art better than any in the land.

3. Assasins are the darker folk who usually work for coin at killing those seen fit by people willing to pay. Prefer daggers to other weapons and profess in killing effectively with stealth. the shade ability mentioned above enhances Kaedric's skill, one he uses far less than his others but uses with brutal efficientcy(sp?).

I figured I would add the job description to give insight into what Kaedric might be found doing in the Rp, and to add possibilty of plot twists involving jobs.

Kaedric can only use the Shade ability for short periods of time, or it exhausts him. If he uses it for over half an hour, he collapses.
