Ar Tonelico: Melody of Lunaris

[GoldenKitten]

Name: Ar Tonelico: Melody of Lunaris

Genre: Action/Adventure/Romance

Length: Long…really…really…long…as long as I can make it…forever…and ever…without end…Ok maybe not but expect a full story.

Rating: 5 – Strong violence, possible disturbing situations and strong innuendo. However unlike the game there will be no silly wordplay, might work in a game but would just be awkward in an RP, but casual to strong innuendo will take place, the world more or less sets it up to occur. Of course we will be playing it tastefully and the RP will be female friendly.

Synopsis: Ok it has to be done. I’ve put it off long enough, I can put it off no longer. I know we need it, Steven knows we need it and I know that in your hearts even the uninitiated who I still haven’t gotten to play the games know we need it. It is simply that quintessential to living a complete and full life. Call it a average JRPG all you want, call it perverse all you want, call it typical male fantasy anime-fare if you care to but deep in your hearts you know that’s the gods require this of us for it was the. Best. Game. Ever. and its sequel was even more badass.

Thus no more waiting, I hereby announce a new RP! Ar Tonelico: Melody of Lunaris!

YAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!
*Fanfare*
*Fanboyism*
PRAISE THE GODS!!!

*Ahem*

So for those of you out of the know the Ar Tonelico series takes place in a fantasy realm where the Earth has been destroyed and covered in a poisonous fog. The few survivors live on one of three large towers similar to the real life orbital tower concept scattered around the world, only these have existed for so long that natural elements like plant life have taken root. More over in addition to humans the world is inhabited by bio-robots known as Reyvateils who can utilize song magic through a direct link to the towers which are in fact the source of these powers to do incredible things. While male reyvateils do exist their powers either never manifest or show up in such an inconsequential way that their essentially of no use in the face of the more powerful female variety, thus we generally have powerful fighters (both male and female) known as vanguards whose job it is to protect powerful reyvateils while they charge their magics, these individuals may be solo adventurers or work for some organization. In addition there are multiple kinds of reyvateils from Origins who as the name suggest are centuries old and are pure machines to third generations which are more along the lines of bio-machines through countless generations of human coupling (the latter are more prevalent with origins numbering in the single digits in the game as they take place thousands of years after the disaster when the last origin was made).

It may sound complicated but in fact if you have ever played an RPG you can easily understand these facts by adding a little techno-babble here and there and understanding that there is a particular race solely dedicated to spell-casting. What makes Ar Tonelico unique though and is one of the few systems that will be making a direct transition to the RP is the dive system. Because Reyvateils are machines to some extent or another depending on their class their minds can be viewed like a computer (this also means they can be taken over by viruses, etc.). This system directly manifests by having one individual (typically a love interest within the games but as far as we are concerned it could also just be a close friend) log-in and physically help the reyvateil overcome some form of trauma or simply a mental block and utilizing this method they allow the reyvateil to craft new song magic. Speaking of song magic it is exactly that, magic is evoked through the recitation of a musical hymnos language, don’t worry this is another matter we will only touch on briefly, for the most part spell-casting will be handled in a normal manner.

Now with the necessary explanation out of the way I will explain the story though in fact to save us from spoilers most of it will be kept hidden. Lunaris takes place in a parallel universe from the games as not to cause any problems and so we don’t have to take what happened in the games into consideration. It takes place on one of the towers namely the one from the first game known as Sol Ciel, however knowledge will not be required because as I said nothing will be from the games and the world will be reordered. A matriarchal society of female reyvateils exists in the upper reaches of the tower and has been utilizing their powers to subjugate much of the lower worlds population though an active resistance is still alive and well. The society is not as pro-reyvateil as one might believe as they only accept the “best” reyvateils in their ranks leaving the rest in just as poor conditions as the humans so the resistance has just as many on their side. In the background of this conflict other powers also seem to be at work.

Now as for characters I wouldn’t mind some short profiles but nothing major needs to be done, just a few paragraphs total will be fine. Everyone should either be a resistance fighter or a civilian who is in a position to get caught up in it, which of course means you will end up being resistance either way. I know lots of guys feel awkward playing girls so it isn’t required to be a reyvateil but is allowed, if nothing else I will be one so don’t worry yourselves to much if you don’t want to.

So that’s it…join or I’ll cut you…er I mean, please join, your company would be greatly appreciated……or I’ll cut you =_=…with a machete =_=...stop laughing...I'm not joking...join.

[Jukuma]

I would like to join, though I'm still figuring what kind of character to make. Is a virus possible? I mean something like Ayatane (though maybe not as strong). If not I'll make a human, but either way it will be someone with some experience in the resistance.

[GoldenKitten]

I pondered this a while and unfortunately I just don't think it could work. Despite my amusing threats I'm fully aware we're going to get three or four people at max here and as such this is probably going to play out as a pure NPC vs PC RP and so doesn't owe itself to creating characters who play multiple sides. I loved Ayatane as well but I just don't think it'll work...not to mention Mir doesn't exist here and the source of the viruses in this RP won't be quite so...maternal (I should also mention viruses won't be a part of everyday life, at the start their quite rare but sitings go up as the story progresses). If you have some ideas throw them up and I will see if we can try and work them in but for the moment we would just be spreading ourselves to thin if even one of us was taking part from a different side (And it would be boring to you if you had to do everything solo except for battles).

[Mr. Butterfly]

I'm jumping on this boat. I'll get to work on a resistance fighter ASAP.

[kensei]

Umm i would like to join so long as this one dosent die to.. Also where is the app?

[Mr. Butterfly]

Goldenkitten: There is no app, just use the normal things you would always use...name, age, sex, app, pers, history...that sort of thing though as mentioned it just has to be long enough to get the idea, no need for bs length apps.

[Mr. Butterfly]

Name: Yata Mador

Gender: Male

Age: 26

Ranking: Resistance Fighter - Male Reyvateil, Altered

Physical Description:


Height: 5’10”
Weight: 170 [146 + Mechanical Weight]
Eye Color
Yata has a barcode-like tattoo on his back, with the numbers #48389587389995938948875933794 and a burn on his lower back, a scar of when the reyvateils owned him. They originally had the Matriarch symbol on him, but he forcibly removed it from his skin the old fashioned way.

Personality

A sad past makes this man a little inward. Yata Mador looks like the sad but savage emo-typical person that people point at when they eat lunch when his back‘s turned because laughing in his face will get you killed, but in reality . . . He’s only that way towards the Reyvateils that rule in the tower above. To the general public he’s simply not a people person. He gets along with everybody just fine, but there’s that sense of “coolness” that a lot of people can’t get around. A brief conversation here, a chat there, but he’s usually just focusing on his own business. He’s a very observant guy, really - his favorite pastime is to just watch a scene and analyze all that goes on. To the Resistance Revyateils, he is a little nicer to them, but overall he has a slight trust issue with them, added to the fact that he sucks at getting close to people. He’s easily bored with a lot of things, but has recently discovered a love of board games.

Brief History:

Yata was born on the Sol Ciel. Being a male reyvateil, his was practically useless compared to the female varient - he and the other males were used as slaves of many varieties. Even the younglings like himself were doing menial tasks and upkeep, etc. However, Yata was chosen for a special event - he and a few others were taken away “for an experiment to make the males accomplish more deeds”. The simple explanation is that the reyvateils took the mechanical parts from the males and modified them in extreme ways for various needs. Yata’s entire left arm was modified to battle specifics. Some of the lab rats didn’t survive, but the majority lived, and the reyvateils of Sol Ciel planned their uses. However, Yata was questioning his own existence at the time, growing more and more rebellious towards them though not acting on his urges. It was as if he was waiting.

One day, an odd chance happened to him. A single female took him out for some mission into the lower tower reaches - something about taking down a rebel or whatnot. As they got there, however, something didn’t seem right. No one was there, no one was around. As he turned to ask the reyvateil why, she was upon him, and a burst of magic shot into his arm, nearly destroying it. He fell back, confused and unsure of what just happened. She told him that he was no longer required - better versions of him had been developed. Before she cast the spell that would have slayed him, however, a single spear tip pierced itself straight through her neck, then through her abdomen as she tried to recover from what was going on. Yata blacked out from the sight of the death, as any other teen would if they had never seen it before.

Cycle through time a bit - it was the Resistance that saved Yata. They were about to ambush both of them when they realized that saving him might increase their ranks by another one. They were right and wrong for a while - Yata did help them out, but it was with such distance that some of them wondered if he would go back to the reyvateils. Little did they know he was just trying to push the newfound “love” for them deep inside of himself. He was afraid that he’d take it out on his saviors if not. That, and he was busy figuring himself out in other ways - like how the hell did his arm work. For a while, he couldn’t even manipulate it to move at dinner. Nowadays he knows most of himself, but he still has questions - why was he one of the ones chosen for experimentation? Was it random whim or for a reason? And what would he do with his life now? For he had no true intention to fight with the Resistance for the rest of his life.

Weapons/Items

Harmonic Left - Yata’s left arm is the part of his body that was modified the most. Mostly machine now, it’s uses are for both assault and defense. Basically, a high-frequency emitter is located right on top of a low-frequency emitter, with both attached to a series of channels and outputs that route to his spine. His spine his highly reactive to the resonance left over from song magic bursts that are released during casting. It picks these up and absorbs them, thus converting them into electronic nerve messages. The messages flow through the channels and inputs that lead back into the left arm’s emitters. The two emitters send messages to each other from the song magic at such a high rate that the song manifests itself, extending outwards. A special limiter gauntlet he has takes this leftover “song magic”, and turns it into a constantly rotating stream. The stream therein extends further outward, about a foot from the arm, in an oval shape, but is thinner than a single inch. This is adaptively a shield, but can be used as a weapon to bash the crap out of the enemy. A dangerous way to attack - and also used as a last resort only - it that the emitters disrupt the harmony they have, and the gauntlet stops rotating the energy, shooting it forwards. The energy contained bursts forth in a destructive blast, but can quickly drain Yata of any energy he may have stored in himself. As a boosting mechanism, the resonant energy from the shield itself is much the same as a reyvateils wavelength. And, much the same a two singing, Yata’s arm can actually shorten the time it takes to cast, as the boost in wavelength creates a faster tone.

Yata likes sightseeing and playing a variety of games. His favorite thing to eat is anything with BBQ, while his favorite drink is white wine of many styles.

[GoldenKitten]

Name: Aurora, known by the title of: Baroness Aurora

Gender: Female

Age: Looks: 15

Rank: Resistance Leader - Master Class Reyvateil

Physical Description


Aurora has long pink hair that when let down drops to her waist, however she usually keeps it up in a curly pink bun that then falls into a large layered down-pull, she has red eyes that compliment this. Her face is in between that of a child and an adults with sharp angles but still retaining soft cheeks and small features, she rarely smiles and tends to either seem completely blank or wearing a constant scowl. She has a lithe and petite dancers form and is underdeveloped for her age. Aurora as her title of Baroness suggest is one of the most important members of the resistance and while she refuses to take a position in the civilian public she is still well known among the military crowd, as such she wears some of the more eccentric and expensive clothing found in the resistance. Namely a large pink cloak with golden embroidery over a black tank-top with a high neck, her shirt stops low and exposes her belly until a short pink skirt that starts at her hips. The skirt its cut at a diagonal so that it reaches her knee on one side but is all the way up to her hip on the other, as such she wears a pair of black hot-paints underneath the skirt which bears golden swirls. She wears knee-high black boots with the same golden embroidery as the upper portion of her outfit.

Personality: No faith, these two words sum up the total of Aurora. She does not trust anyone, she places no trust that they will ever succeed in what she orders, she simply does it because she refuses to cease her existence. That is the sad tale of Aurora, her personality does not stem from cynicism or fatalism but instead from a total lack of faith in the world, for all intensive purposes she is a walking corpse who finds no joy or purpose in existing. She ignores her emotions and refuses to acknowledge any feelings for anyone having not cared for a single individual for as long as she can remember. Aurora is driven by the single-minded desire to exist solely to exist and wages war solely to prove that existence, at her heart though she is not without emotions and in fact some part of her long since suppressed aims for revenge against those above. She is not as lost as one might believe though, she covers her emotions but she is not without them and just needs someone who can prove that they deserve to be trusted. Aurora was a happy child once and at heart she still stands a chance of being one. It should be mentioned that Aurora never lets anyone dive into her, yet strangely for someone so broken she has no problem crafting song magic anytime she wants to with no help.

History: Aurora was betrayed by her closest friend back when she was young and as such was forced out of the land where the “superior” reyvateils live. After this she wandered the world for a time and after multiple similar betrayals decided she would no longer trust anyone. Regardless she eventually joined the resistance, partly because she no longer cared and simply wanted something to do but perhaps part of her also hoped she could one day get back at the one who betrayed her. Due to her incredibly powerful song magic and her uncanny ability to plot both military and civilian endeavors for her age it was not long before she became a prominent figure and gained the title of Baroness. Though certain members of society such as the lead priestess of the Church of the Elder Origin are more popular in the eyes of the public Aurora is for all intents and purposes the leader of all resistance reyvateils and one of the three leaders of the overall resistance, second only to the leader Tartarus. It is widely believed among other things that Aurora is a B-type reyvateil as she has not seemed to age in many years. This theory is backed up by the strength of her powers and because of the constant state of conflict several B-type reyvateils have been created over the past century adding additional weight, she does not deny or affirm the theory.

Zack left two days after her execution and ended up getting captured by the resistance. After two years of trying to win there trust he finally was allowed to join there ranks. But because of the time in the prison his skills had become rusty. But after a year of fighting he became top notch again. He has been fighting and killing for the last three years. And will continue to until the corruption of the Reyvateil is obliterated, or he himself dies.


Weapons/Items:
Zack keeps two 9 inch long knives on his person as well as samurai sword.

[Zhiel]

Name: Dr. Darian Hyer

Gender: Male

Age: 34

Rank: Lead Scientist of the "Sol Ciel Research and Resurrection Project".

Physical Description

Darian is a fairly tall man by human standards, being just about 194 Centimeters. On the same hand, he appears to be quite well trained, with a build that suggests him doing his fair share of 'push-ups', though not putting him on the same level as any bodybuilders. However this is more than likely just as well seeing how his arms and other large portions of Darian's body have been replaced with prosthetics or equipment meant to stabilize or enhance, but more on that later.

Darian has a rather average looking Caucasian skin tone, which makes his white hair stand out on him quite a bit, despite being pretty short and slicked back to not be in the way. Though one can easily see he is obviously well above twenty, it is fairly hard to pin-point Darian's actual age just by his looks, although it might have been easier had it not been for the scar which goes straight across his face, just above where his nose ends and just below where his eyes are. Speaking of his eyes, Darian's eyes have an extremely bloodied color to them. This is in fact not a natural condition, but rather one that happened due to an accident where he nearly went blind and now needs assistance to see. Which he gets from a white colored steel visor that covers the bridge of his nose up to his forehead, looking nearly just like a sheet of metal, minus the three glowing red 'lines' which go through it horizontally.

In the same accident where Darian more or less lost his eye sight, he also lost most of his arms, and part of his legs, along with some internal organs which needed assistance to continue functioning. But luckily for him he was able to get 're-fitted' with prosthetics. Due to it being extremely hard to fit a prosthetic arm on a semi-functioning one, they had to completely remove Darian's right and left arms in order to fit on the new ones, which are about the same size as his previous. However they are made of steel, using technology to make them respond to the signals sent from the brain, allowing him to move them realistically. Although the sense of touch is nearly completely gone, he instead has to rely on the feel of his shoulder 'shuddering' whenever his hand hits an object.

His legs are not so badly injured however. Although he had to remove a part of his lower left leg, they were able to fit a prosthetic onto the kneepad, and though it is not nearly as advanced as the arms, due to his profession requiring precision, they are still able to emulate a real leg quite well. His right leg did not need to be 'removed' or replaced, however it was severely injured despite this, and as such needed to be stabilized, which was done by placing a small 'exo-skeleton' on the outside of his leg, and fastening it to all of his joints along the way. This does in-fact not give him any advantages, but as he has grown used to it, neither does it give him any disadvantages.

Luckily for Darian, his spine survived the accident intact and well, as they would find it hard to fix injuries of that level. However some of his internal organs did not avoid taking damage, and as such a large part of his intestines needed to be removed and in some ends replaced, while nearby organs was fitted with machinery that would aid them in their works, making him able to live a mostly ordinary life.

Darian covers all of his prosthetic parts however. He does so by wearing a long sleeved white suit with slightly 'puffy' arms. Over the suit he wears a vest that is white on the front, with black stripes going across it, and black on the back, the transition happening on his shoulder. Darian nearly always wears a pair of black leather gloves which fit his prosthetic fingers perfectly, the gloves themselves being extremely thin and just barely covering for his hands, even though they continue well up on his wrists. He wears a pair of black colored trousers over his legs, which despite being fairly tight does not reveal his prosthetic on his left leg neither his 'support' on his right, though if one touched the side of his right leg they would feel it right away. For shoes he wears a pair of simple yet elegant black leather shoes.

Personality: (I'm not entirely sure on how to go with this guy just yet, so I'll just write something short to have something to go on.)

When it comes to science and technology in Sol Ciel, there is no one more knowledgeable than Darian Hyer, and he knows this well. On those same subjects, Darian is as arrogant as they come, however if he is 'off duty' so to speak he tends to be fairly laid-back and at the same time does not really act as arrogant as he tends to be otherwise, though this is just when he's not talking science. He has fairly easy to make friends outside of work, due to his laid-back nature, however most would not be able to stand the change he goes through when he is working, so he has very few friends in his own line of work. The fact that he is a human male working for the top of the Sol Ciel does really show he knows what he is doing however.

History: Darian Hyer was born into one of the previously higher standing houses of humans of the Sol Ciel, a family well-known for their excellent scientists. Which was the only reason they were even allowed to live on the mid-sections of the massive tower and had not been pushed down to the lowest levels along with most other humans. It so happened that a male Reyvateil scientist noticed Darian one day when he was 'playing' with a few experiments of his own, and the Reyvateil who was down there gathering information and 'resources' for one of his own, walked up to Darian and asked him what he was doing.

Darian who, though a mere ten years old at the time, was well versed in the art of science gave the man a long but nearly perfect explanation of each of the pieces of his experiment and what they did, along with what the theorized result would be. The Reyvateil, who Darian learned to be called Schiffer was very pleased with the boy's explanation, seeing great promise in him and after having a quick chat with his mother (As his father was dead, or rather, missing.) brought the boy with him to become his apprentice.

The years passed from there, with Darian growing up to be a fairly good-looking young man. Along with his knowledge of science and technology grew his desire to learn more, he spent nearly every day either doing research or reading, and soon became more than just an assistant of Dr. Schiffer.

At the age of twenty-seven Darian was the 'second in command' of the Sol Ciel Research and Resurrection project, the biggest and at the time, seen as most important scientific project at the time. Sadly however an accident occurred, of which Darian himself has little memory off, it appeared to be a completely random twist of fate, and the end product of it was with a missing Dr. Schiffer and a badly injured Darian Hyer.

Being the second in command, and thus the only other person who might have what was necessary to complete the project, the ones being in charge of the Sol Ciel's science and research departments decided to save Darian's life by 'modifying' him with their technology, some of which Darian himself had made, ironically.

After recovering from the incident, and not constantly throwing up when trying to move, Darian took his first shaky steps in the hospital room he was staying in at the time. The visor or goggles he wore on his face in order to see only allowed him to see in scales of black and white to begin with, but after making some adjustments to it he was able to pick up on most colors. It took him nearly two years to recover completely from the incident, but when he did he was easily able to return to service straight away, taking up where his teacher left him, ignoring the work that the lower standing researchers had done during his absence after just a quick glance over the data. To him it seemed just like a waste of time.

During the years after his recovery Darian adjusted and improved on the equipment which made him able to continue on his existence as a mostly normal man. One of the many improvements he did was to add a weapon to his arm prosthetics, as he had discovered that while they moved, the arms generated energy, possibly due to them being fashioned after the same technology the tower was built from. And by researching this energy he was able to manufacture a way to store it, as well as being able to make it into a hidden weapon.

Sadly however, the project was slowly going into a halt, as less and less progress was being made. And being just a human, the leaders of the science and research departments was beginning to question Darian's loyalty and use. Though they were more arrogant than him to think he would not notice. Right now, he is merely waiting to see what will happen, and ready to act on that.

Additional Info:

Prosthetics:
Darian's arms are prosthetics made of solid steel and other technology which allows them to move realistically and nearly perfectly emulate real arms and hands, though they do not have any synthesized skin, as that is far above what they are capable of producing these days. The arms and his left leg possess strength above that of any regular human, making him able to lift things to a certain degree (as he needs to support it with his back as well), or punch or kick them very hard.

Equipment:
Darian owns a lot of different equipment, much of which he tends to carry on his person while working. Some of this equipment is used for taking measurements on certain scientific things, however others can also be used for other tasks, such as hacking the 'local' systems of Sol Ciel.

Weapons:
Sol Ciel Energy: Darian's arms use very advanced technology to function, and a side-effect of that functioning generates powerful energies similar but still different from electricity. Being the genius scientist he is Darian was able to mostly figure this energy out and made it into a hidden weapon that only he knows about. With a certain 'command' this energy can be unleashed from its stores within the arms, sending a burst of it from the palms of Darian's palms, which are guided by the position of his fingers, and then sent outward in about a meter radius before dispersing.

Though this energy is very powerful when deployed as a weapon, its short range makes it only usable in close combat. When fully charged, which can take about a day of excessive moving his arms, Darian can fire five normal bursts of energy from each arm. He can also charge one arm up to use all energy in it(which works as long as he has at least three 'charges' left, though being more powerful if he has them all). He can send it out as a bolt of powerful energies that can tear through nearly anything in its path for a good twenty meters before losing power, reaching about thirty meters total, but then being weaker than a normal charge.

Side-Arm: A low-caliber gun that Darian wears on him, mostly for show, though still capable of easily killing a man without any protection on a thirty meter distance.

[Jukuma]

Sorry it took this long, its not like I was giving up on applying for this RP, I just have been very busy lately which probably explains why I haven't logged on in approximately a week... Anyways, I made the application (in the end I went with a reyvateil), but I think I won't be able to be that active for the following weeks, and I really don't want to slow you guys down, so I would appreciate that, if approved, you let me join after a while. If you'd prefer otherwise then so be it, but I can't promise I have the time to make posts of decent quality and length. Hope you don't mind.
_____________________________________

Name: Alainne

Gender: Female

Age: Looks: 20 Actual: 64

Rank: Resistance Commander – High-ranking Reyvateil

Physical Description: Overall, Alainne has the appearance of a young, notably attractive woman around her early adulthood. She has blond, wavy hair that reaches approximately 40cm past her shoulders and keeps it loose in most situations due to the incommodity she feels wearing any kind of hair accessories. Due to a never-fading smile and a constantly present tranquil expression to her green eyes, Alainne always gives out a sense of secrecy and dissimulated mischief to others, especially so during first impressions, when people are not accustomed to her indifferent mannerisms. This aura of concealment and a fairly noticeable mole located slightly below the right side of her right eye complement together to emphasize her attractiveness.

Measuring approximately 5’4” and weighting roughly 128 pounds, Alainne has a very fragile and svelte appearance, though she is not gifted in curves. The clothes she wears tend to change over time, since she is a woman concerned with originality and doesn’t follow a certain style for long periods of time. Generally, she tends to prefer very loose and unornamented clothing, which she wears in most occasions involving informal scenarios like simply ambulating around the city. She does, however, make exceptions when it comes to situations on which she is required to exert physical effort (combat being a good example despite her condition as a reyvateil). For such situations, Alainne uses what she refers to as the “combat uniform”, which consists on a sleeveless shirt that covers all of her breast area and the upper half of her abdomen, together with a tight pair of shorts.

Visual Reference

Personality: Alainne is a person very hard to understand, let alone see through. Her motivations after practically anything she does are unclear on the most part and it is hard to tell when she is telling the whole truth or keeping something to herself, reason why some people find it somewhat difficult to trust her despite her high position. She is a very calm and collected person that keeps many of her thoughts to herself but won’t deny a conversation if others take the initiative, especially when they are superiors. Even though she does give it more importance than she claims, she is very passive about confrontations with little relevance, which involves any conflict lacking significant ideals to be initiated, particularly mere rivalry. Internally, however, she firmly believes to be superior to other reyvateil and suffers from a severe superiority complex, imposing her supposed supremacy by continuously engaging in many battles.

During fights, she tends to expose a more sadistic side to her personality, not feeling any remorse for her opponents and certainly not backing down on the sight of blood. There have been very few people who witnessed this other face of Alainne, but for those who did or heard of it this counts as one more reason why she cannot be fully trusted.

History: Alainne was created as a B-type reyvateil long time before the lower-class reyvateils were casted away from the tower and condemned to live on the same low level as humans, leading to the establishment of the rebellion. During all that time she passed living on the top level of the tower, she dedicated herself fully to her development as one of the combat reyvateils to be incorporated as a knight. Her abilities were soon regarded as above average and she rose up in the ranks with remarkable speed until she was leader of her own squadron, which is probably what gave origin to her excessively overconfident attitude. When the rebellion took place, her reaction to it was completely different to that her fellow high-class reyvateils; despite sharing a superiority complex with them, rather than imposing herself on the weaker ones of her type, she openly opposed the inhabitants of the tower and joined the rebellion a few days after it was founded. The leaders were hesitant to accept her at the beginning, having in mind her active interaction with the high-class reyvateils and no clear grasping of her reasons to join them, fearing the possibility of her being a spy. With years, she gained sympathy from some of the leaders and was awarded a high position, however, because there’s still some suspicion on her, there are no hopes for her to rank up any further and she has been denied access to vital information on the organization. She hasn’t shown any opposition to this.

Ya sure, its accepted we aren't holding these to any great scrutiny just so long as nobody tries to drop a teleporting, doom spewing, immortal god on us.

As for being gone a while thats fine, this is taking its time to get started like all the other RP's. More over the first chapter is more an introduction to the story as well as an introduction to certain world topics for those individuals joining us who never played the games (the tower, song magic, hymn crystals, etc.). Thus there will be nothing in this first chapter to face that will really challenge the characters, most of it could probably be soloed if they really wanted to though of course that would sort of go against the point of an RP . But ya, don't worry.

And then to make a personalized text URL it goes like this.

[ url = address here]Name Here[/url]

So for yours it would be like this, remove the spaces of course.

[ url = i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh160/Sodloc/IMG_0270.jpg]Alainne[/url]

To look like this.
