[M]This is War (A Dragon Age Rp)

[Higurashi]

(Rated M For gore, violence, alchohol, and mild sexual relations)

"Oh? So you've heard. Yes, I didn't believe it myself at first.... but now I know better. There is indeed another blight upon us. I hear that the Grey Wardens are massing an army to face it. What? They Grey Wardens are a myth? Oh no my friend, htey're quite real. Yes, I know that all the tales are fantastical but they're true all the same. Anyways, the word from the merchants is that King Herald is recruiting. Not just soldiers mind you, every type of person you could imagine. Why would he do that? Well, the word says that he's making a fortress city. I know that it sounds crazy but if its true...... Oh don't worry I'm sure it'll be fine."

Thats what the Elder said the last time you saw him. When you saw him next, he was slain, along with almost everyone in the village. In the burned remains a post still stands, declaring a recruiment call in the nearest city, Lothering. You'll have to gather whats left and head there. Because staying here would be suicide. The darkspawn will be coming back soon, to mop up the survivors.

[spirits breath]

Name- Nihallen (knee. holleen) rialshna
Age- 25
Sex- male
Sexual direction- bi
Species: elf
Class: blood mage, working on shapeshifter
Starting items- canteen, staff with a large clear glass orb for decaration, a blood amulet(refers to color of the stone), sacrificial dagger, lore book
bio- nihallen had a rather complex childhood. being raised in the spire was always a bad part of his memory, but the secret practice with blood magic went from small rodents to large birds and combining spells. These were difficult to learn since he had to steal books from the library and get out with them to practice.
several years went by until he had to flee, they had evidence on a mage using blood magic and the trail lead to him.
luckely the magic of shape shifting was available to him as he used it to escape, using size as an ally.

(oh, is it the same four shapes for shapeshifting, or can we make our own list of four. was thinking spider, hawk, dolphin(just because) and fox. just for variety speaking instead of spider, bear, or swarm, then them corrupted. so i am taking out the corruption for a fourth animal.)
but want to check with you. though it would also be one of those things where you can turn into anything if you have time to study and practice that being.

[Higurashi]

Accepted except for one issue. The transformations aren't really combat oriented.

[spirits breath]

exactly. those are the four he knows as of current.
hence why he is still learning how to do it. but then again trying to be an animal using blood magic from the blood of his foes is always good. you know burrow into them, drown them, rip out their groin. you name it.
and all of them can be in fact. the hawk is going to be larger (playing DnD you realize that any animal has some ability. hawk is a paragon destiny for druids) dolphins kill sharks spiders, you played the game, and foxes just because he can have a pun when he says I am a fox.
though foxes do hunt, they are predators, just sly ones.

[Damonique]

I'm willing to give this a go so long as your can keep it plot and combat oriented and keep the drama,to a minimum. Heres my sheet. I don't intend him to be uber, and remember that his escape was only possible by making a temporary pact with a powerful demon. I don't intend to play him as an antisocial charicter, he'll have to interact with other peoples characters often, he just can't relate to others motives or reasoning. Sorry for going overboard with the bio and adding a few fields of my own, its all just exposition, but I'd like it if you would read it.

Name-Sorin Saeres(Appearance and Clothing)
Age-19
Sex-Male
Sexual direction- Straight(I don't expect to involve him in any intimate relationships unless this goes long enough to give him some serious character development)
Species:Human
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Class:Mage/Sorcerer
Spells- Weak Fire, Ice, and Lightning Manipulation, Mid-range Lightining and Ice Manipulation. Various utility spells for everyday needs, weak healing spells, some defensive/passive magic, and daemonic channeling(When the shit hits the fan, Deals with the devil must be made).

Starting items-A silver stiletto dagger, an ornate Grey and Silver bound spell book that never seems to run out of pages, and can be opened to a particular chapter or spell at a thought. The book chronicles all of the notes of the three mages that have held it, including its first owner, the last Tevinter Sorcerer-King and is being added to by Sorin, and a small pack containing food, water, and various scrolls and Magical apparatae.

Personality: Sorin is a textbook sociopath, incapable of relating to other people and limited to rational thinking unaffected by emotions or the considerations of others. Though the scope of his view is incomparable, it is halted by his limitations, he lacks the power and access a true magi would have. Also, only 19, the young Sorcerer lacks the sheer willpower and pool of mana to fulfill his potential.

Bio-Sorin had known of his Magical Talent from a very young age, but had kept his abilities hidden from his parents for many years, but his unsettling emotionlessness and intelligence greater than a child should have led them to discover his talent, and they erroneously believed he had been corrupted by a demon. Indeed, Sorin did see demons, and he spoke to them, and they taught him dangerous things, but the unshakable willpower entailed by his cold, calculating thought process left him almost immune to forced demonic possession.

At age twelve, he was taken to the tower of Magi to be tested, and was accepted into the tower, but after being discovered conducting his own magical experiments on multiple occasions over his three-year indoctrination, Sorin was scheduled to be made tranquil without even being able to go through the Harrowing.

Terrified, Angered, and Disgusted with the circles limitations, the fifteen-year-old magi coordinated and carried out his own Coup De'at, using knowledge imparted to him by and archaic tome hundreds of years old to bind and release a dozen rage demons to raise hell upon the tower, and escaped by lending his body as a host to a greater Pride demon, carefully crafting the implications of the spell to force the demon to leave his body twelve hours after hosting it.

What truly happened during the chaos he could not remember, though he awoke in a ditch on the opposite bank from the tower island, coated in blood and ash, and set away from the place as quickly as he could. Using the knowledge of magic to survive in the wild for the last four years, presumed dead and thus unhunted by the Templar order.

After feeling the ripples through the very fabric of the fade in his dreams caused by the blight, Sorin has been forced to join the one group that may be capable of getting him closer to the center of that disturbance. The Grey Wardens. Why he feels the need to reach the Archdemon is unknown by Sorin himself, only that he will have a role to play before the end.

[Higurashi]

Okay. Accepted

[Damonique]

Shouldn't we have a few more charicters first?
