IC
Everything was well and good in fabre. Life was simple but it was peaceful. Everything seemed perfect. Fabre was a town hidden deep in the Forest of Castel. They were away from a lot of towns and some would even say that they didn’t exist but they did. They improved on their own discovering ways of survival and eventually founding schools and government. Despite all these innovations and discoveries that Fabre had it had a secret, a secret that the human inhabitants thought of as just an old wives tale.
Life went on in Fabre and as time passed their town grew and grew. They expanded their territories. One would say that they were in for a bright future… But, they didn’t expect a massive earthquake to shake their lives. The quakes brought down all their structures, their parks were ruined and their roads were cracked open. Their livelihood gone in a snap and all their hard work, sunk to the ground. The worst part was, not many survived the earthquake. As the earthquake died down, the survivors unearth themselves to see what has become of their precious home. Everything was in ruins. They wept, all of them, wept of their home, their loved ones their town. How were they to start over now? They thought of this as their biggest challenge yet. No one really took into consideration what their famous legend had said about a said event such as this one.
As night covered them the survivors huddled up and kept each other company as they spent the first night after the disaster. They were scared, how were they to rise up from this tragedy, could they really just abandon their home? As thoughts filled their minds and they all drifted to sleep they never expected anything like this. Shadows crept up from the cracks in the ground, swooped down on them abducting them from their slumber. As one of their fellow survivors screamed everyone got up and spread out into the ruins of their town. Everyone was abducted! Most were eaten away… Others saved.
Plot:
You are one of the survivors who were saved.(you can either be a trainee or already part of the mercenary group) You are saved by a mercenary group of underground humans fighting against the shadows, salvus. Now they “abducted” you so that they would have new recruits to train to combat the shadows. Now the shadows are getting stronger and have divided themselves into several groups occupying the different ruins of the old town. Though their number was few, they were strong. The leader of these shadow creatures was Vexus.Now it says in the story that the stones of Ler would help stop the apocalypse. Now your quest is exactly that. You need to find these stones and defeat the shadows.
You:
Now if you start off as a trainee we will partner you with a mercenary group member (meaning you can choose to be a member of the mercenary group already or be a trainee).
Trainee: It doesn’t mean you start with nothing. You start with a little knowledge in sword fighting and you train to find your powers. You fight alongside your mentor Taking in what he or she says but it’s up to you if you character will rebel against your mentor or not.

Spoiler: Places
The location of the first stone is in the ruins beneath the first school atacked by the shadow creatures, which would be "Spirit Academy", which is a school north of the "Menona City" in which the mercenary group will be starting. The ruins exist in the same space and time as ours, but it's an enclosed universe, meaning once you enter you are no longer able to get out, and anything you see in there, will be seen by yourself only, different events may apply to different people.
These ruins are much like a maze, which is different for every person.

Trainees (1 slot left)
Spoiler: Hannah Marie Pellder
TRAINEE
Name: Hannah Marie Pellder
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Weapon(s): Bow and arrows. Hannah has never really trained for the art of archery, but she is unable to hold a sword steady because she's so feeble. She considered daggers, but is horrible at close combat because she's pretty much frightened of everything that loams over her. Archery appealed to her because her mother used to train with a bow and arrows when she was little, so Hannah believed it was in her blood. Hannah is quite a good shot too, as she can aim fairly well with the arrow even though she hasn't received too much training.
*Class: Archer - Master Bowman
Magic: Air element; Hannah wishes to train in the element of air to improve her archery. She wants to learn ways to improve her accuracy, her power and her distance. Such spells would be a breath of air, which makes the arrow travel faster. Also elemental fury (stolen shamelessly from Skyrim), which would allow Hannah to draw arrows faster.
Appearance:Hannah is strictly blonde, never having dyed her hair at all. Her eyes are a piercing blue. She has a fairly oval and presented face, and is often described as pretty. Her hair is long, so most of the time she ties it in a bun on the top of her head. She usually wears casual attire, and is known to be quite the provocative dresser at parties. She wishes to pull away from this habit however by learning the skill of archery a little further.Spoiler: Hannah
Bio: Hannah is the daughter to a family of four. Her mother, Geraldine Pellder trained in archery when she was younger. Her father, Thomas Pellder acted as the mother of the family - laundry, cleaning, food and shopping. This is because Geraldine would work to earn money (she could do it better than Thomas), which meant Thomas had to take up the responsibility of being a house-wife. Hannah also has an older sister, Claudia, who is presumed dead at this current time. Home life was interesting for Hannah, because her father was always at home and her mother always at work, or training with her bow and arrows. She never saw much of her mother or her sister, as they were both always busy. Her father she was most close to.
Hannah's family were separated by the earthquake, unfortunately rendering her separated from her parents and her presumed dead sister. The people who were searching for the survivors of the earthquake could find no sign of Hannah's sister, but her parents were taken to a different camp so Hannah was unable to see them.
Hannah never really went to school or anything along those lines. Her sister didn't, either. Hannah was home schooled to a certain extent by her father when he was free from house chores. Otherwise she received no education whatsoever. This wouldn't render her useless however - she can spell, do simple math - all of which she taught herself in her spare time, by reading (which she also taught herself to do).
Hannah's magic (the element of air) is inspired by her mother's archery once again. Archery relies on the usage of the air to transport an arrow a certain distance until it hits its target. Hannah wishes to train to improve her archery skills in any way possible, thus being training in air magic.
Personality: If Hannah were to be described in one word, it would certainly be "big-headed". I know that's two words, but it's hyphenated. She is full of herself. She mainly taught herself how to read, write and learn whatever she could from books. Because of the lack of support she sustained during reading all those books, she never understood the meaning behind silent achiever. She always had to around and brag about whatever she had learned (especially to her father), and when no one would care, she would go ahead and learn even more about it.
Hannah, when invited to parties, is known to be quite the social butterfly. She doesn't go to school, which means she barely knows anyone. Sometimes she gets invited to her sister's parties, which means she would known people both her age and older. People tend to find her quite easy to get along with and some even describe her as "hot".
She is attempting to put the past behind her now, and focus on the future ahead of her. She wishes to train in the art of archery to find the stones of Ler. In order to be a trainee, she needs to be focused and not hitched on parties and making friends. Especially to not brag about what she has recently achieved and completed.

He did so in the middle of the night and came back and left the chopped meat of a large deer in the food storage room. No one knew who did it. He was that kind of person all the way through till his sixteenth birthday where was taken away from the orphanage because of his "Potency" and taken to the mercenary's.
Before being taken away the mother of the orphanage, Clair gave him a weapon, whispering "Thank you... I'm the only one who say the help silently gave to us." With that he was taken away from everything he knew, That small, small place.
Personality: Quiet, But likes to help those he can, he has taken a liking to playing cards. He is strong willed and intelligent, His goals are unknown to those around him and that sometimes portrays him as dark, something he doesn't like however doesn't deny because sometimes he finds it easier to deal with people when they aren't there for fear of approaching him.
Other: Other then his liking to cards he is lightly practiced with a dagger but was given a bladed gauntlet by Clair and is determined to master that.
[/LEFT]Spoiler: Koren ValacarName: Koren Valacar
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Weapon(s):
Primary - Eradan Amplifier Glove (only one in existence)
Passed down by secret order of Wizards, known as the Eogan, that deal within the art of the life giving element, water. The Eradan Gloves symbolize and specialize in the manipulation of water using high magical energy stored within the gloves and the user himself. The white glove, with gray outlining traveling down the pointer finger and the ring finger, takes years of practice to master as there is a need of synchronization between the two magical outlets. It can even be proven fatal if a deep connection is a not met between the user and the glove, as the glove itself has been seen to reject previous users which in turn leads to their deaths. Only two people within the order have every fully mastered the power of the glove and in turn they were capable of changing the very foundation of their generation.
*Class: Wizard (Elemental)
Magic: Water
Having been trained for a few months by the original owner of the glove Koren understands a few basic manipulations of water. However he is still unstable and can only use them under full concentration. (Current spells are extremely basic, trainee level)
a) Water Manipulation - Using hand motions and incantations Koren is able to move and reshape water to his liking.
b) Water Barrage – Using moisture found within the air he is able to reform the water molecules into highly dense spikes that can be thrown, the higher the density the more the concentration needed. (must remain still for a period of time)
c) Water Shot – By forming water molecules within the palm of his hand Koren is able to shoot high velocity water projectiles at his enemies. This is the most basic of manipulations and is the only one he is currently able to do without needing time to concentrate.
Appearance:
Spoiler: Appearance
Height: 5' 8
Koran is a white complected boy with a scar traveling down his eye from the first attack of the shadows. His uniform and glove originate from the secret order of wizards.
Bio:
Koren was born into a subsistence farming family as an only child, having been poor through out most his life he quickly adapted to stealing from those in his city in order to survive the lingering days of his hopeless existence. His city, Halmar, was a corrupt society based on the needs of the rich that occupied it. Those that were less fortunate kept to the city outskirts where agriculture and land was not abundant to anyone except for those that knew how to get it. Koren's father, a humble honest man who kept to his duty as a provider, was a well known farmer throughout the outskirts as not only providing for his family but also giving to those that were falling behind. However news spread quickly of this unusual abundance of resources for a lowly subsistence farmer. An investigation was enacted by the the city council to capture and “interrogate” Koren's family in order to keep the balance of power and resources tamed.
Koren, 16 at the time, was unaware of this new set bounty on his family as he played outside in the field with his friends in the quiet afternoon. As night settled into place an uneasy feeling swept across the pit of Koren's uneasy soul. As it grew dark and rain began to hit his skin, he quickly made his way to the safety of his home. The unease having never left him, struck his heart as he came to a stop in front of a torn down door of what was home. Once he stepped inside he encountered an image that was permanently engraved into this eyes. His family had been butchered, pieces of their body would even be considered unrecognizable. As gasps turned into tears and tears turned into screams of pain Koren unintentionally unlocked a hidden power within him. The rain had stopped and yet it still hit the earth. Koren completely unaware of his actions stormed out of his home as water around him stopped and then continued once he has passed, as if he were a deity to them. What Koren had also not noticed was a lone figure standing in the distance watching his movements as he ran into the woods. A small smirk on the man was barely visible as he vanished with the rain.
A few days passed until Koren, in his pathetic and malnourished form, was confronted by the man who had seen the boy's potential. Koren, having always been an open person, gave an ear to the man and was struck down by his words of power that laid dormant within him. He simply said no to the first few confrontations of the man, but as time progressed the man became his only form of communication to another being. He was alone in the world and he soon found himself accepting the stranger's invitation.
Four months passed before an earthquake was felt by Koren and his mentor, at the time Koren was practicing alone by a river as his mentor, a leader within the Eogan clan, had went out to gather supplies for them in the town not too far off known as Fabre. The massive quake ruptured the surrounding area around him causing trees to uproot and fall in his direction. From what Koren could remember he had taken a massive blow to the head as he awoke hours later in the night with a large gash seeping blood from his head. His blurry could barely process the shadows of beings that surrounded him, in desperation he attempted to channel energy to his hand but his body would not respond. He could tell that they were speaking to him but their muffled voices held no meaning as they carried his limp body away. The following day Koren found himself in a makeshift bed and a lone woman standing besides him damping a towel to put on his forehead. She gave him a quick smile as he gave her a puzzled look, obviously confused with his surroundings. “Welcome to Salvus.” Was all she said as she left him in the room with his clothe and glove laid out for him on a table not too far off.
Personality:
Koren is a quiet teenager that keeps to himself but is quick to help when he could be of assistance. With his history of death, he has kept a rather harsh tone to his words when speaking to people around him. However, he does keep respect for those that are of higher rank, but is not the type to bow down to another being, this is speculated to be from the loss of his mentor. He can even be considered hard headed with his actions as he keeps a stoic demeanor on his face, only giving off subtle changes. But his voice and eyes tell more than he could ever express.
Other: As time progresses he will learn far more abilities involving his element. Koren enjoys helping those around him from the smallest of tasks to helping out a mentor.

Julianne is a young mercenary. She is from the city of pavel. She and her Family had survived the earthquake in their City. Though when the abductions came she was the only one from their family to join Salvus.

Her eldest brother was training to be a blacksmith just as their dad was and her middle brother was training to be a healer of the town of Pavel. Yes, she was the only daughter of the family. That was why Anne was the "favorite." Anne was dad's little girl always being put first. Though she wasn't hated by her brothers. Even they adore her. She was pretty cute as a child.
The day of the earthquake she, anne was around 15 years old, and her 2 brothers went out to the fields to play. Suddenly her eldest brother Christian felt the ground shake. At once she grabbed for his two siblings and hugged them tight. It was a good thing that they were in the open fields, nothing fell on them. But as they let go from their huddle they found the whole city in rubble. The rush to their home not being able to find their parents. As the crowd of survivors gathered in the fields where they were previously they followed it hoping to find their parents there. Fortunately they were reunited but only for that moment. Anne never expected that that would be the last that she would see her whole family. She was thankful that she was saved but she felt sorry for the rest of her family.
Julianne trained with Salvus and they defeated the shadows the reigned in Pavel. For the nest 4 years Julianne trained to find her powers, She had discovered them on her 3 year with the mercenary group. And she has been training ever since.
As the shadows were unleashed in Fabre It was again time to battle them. anne was stronger now, wiser and she was one of the best there was in Salvus. It was again time to fight the shadows but she wondered if they would be able to succeed this time.
Personality: A bubbly and cheerful girl. she tries to forget about her past. Her motto: "Life is too short to let badluck keep you from living". She is quiet friend with trainees and enjoys the company of her fellow mentors. She is a loving girl who has a big heart.
on the other side of her, Julianne likes to be alone at times to talk to her family. She likes the thought that they are watching over her and are there to help her when trouble brews. Of coarse it was hard for her but she does her best to cope with the loss. I mean, Salvus was her family now, Her family left her in good hands.
Other: she absolutely loves flowers. when not in training you can often find her in the Flower garden just sitting there sometimes lying down on the field or flowers staring up into the sky. She rarely gets to do that now since the shadows broke loose once more but she knows how to set priorities. Her favourite color is red.

Name: Marissa "Rissa" Alister
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Weapon(s):
» Main Weapon - Ancestral Spear, named Reikou. Reikou is a lightweight steel Spear and is easy to handle. This spear was a decorative piece owned by a rich family house that lived near Rissa's family in the city of Talion.

When either family needed help, the other stepped in and vice versa.
The top hilt is inlaid with a Aqua colored Cat's Eye Jewel on the top. The bottom hilt is also inlaid with two smaller Cat's Eye Jewels. It is rumored that Reikou has a hidden potential, only to unlock in the time of dire need. Whenever that time comes, it will read the soul of it's owner and deems if it is fit to wield such power.

This is a rage trigger state, meaning it will only activate upon the most desperate of times. It increases speed and dramatically for 3 minutes. Extended and further use will cause the user to forget fragments of her memory.

Bio:
Marissa Alister, other than her parents, Zaneth and Marian, her family also consisted of her younger brother Zane, named after their Father. But now they are all deceased, taken by the disastrous earthquake.
Marissa, to date is one of the oldest Mercenary around of the group, though by not much. She is only 21. Young and very adventurous. She is from the city of Talion, which was one of the first cities to get hit with the massive Earthquake. It destroyed her city completely and everyone along with it, it was a miracle that she was the only one left standing in the ruins of her beloved home. For days she wept for her people.
Before the Earthquake, Marissa was helping out in her mother's and neighbor's shop and inn. It also served a mini tavern for people to come pour their hearts out by drinking. Marissa enjoyed talking to people. She loved to hear the stories of passing strangers and the legends they told.
After the disaster, Marissa rarely spoke, she was always silent, with tears running down her Green eyes. Upon joining the mercenaries, she found a new life, and a new family. Ever passing days, her sorrow eventually faded away and was replaced with hope and joy. She is now one of the happiest people around, no matter how hopeless situations may escalate to. She always looks for a bright outlook over days to come.
She believes to one day rebuild the fallen cities. But of course, that is every survivor's dream.
Personality: Rissa is wise, cool, collective, lenient and very laid back. A very energetic individual that lives for the thrill, this results in others find it hard keeping up with her. Rissa always smiles no matter how grim the situation may be.
This is to hide her true feelings towards what happened with her family and friends. For that reason, she values life over all. She will step up to be a protector and an unwilling sacrifice at the same time for others, if the time calls for it.
Other: She likes to ponder and stare at the moonlight every night and just wait to fall asleep under the faint light.
(Hopefully this is a little more fine tuned!)
