    Ok,guys,here's my charrie.

    Name:Prince Michael
    Age:26
    Race:Human
    Status:The exiled crown prince of Catalon

    Background:Once the heir to the the throne of the kingdom of Catalon,he was exiled to the bleak border lands,after a palace coup that followed his father's death.An noble who was an advocate for the rights of the oppressed peasants of his land,Michael's departure was not much regretted by the court.Recently however,a group of ambitious nobles wanting to overthrow the King decided to bring him back to Catalon and use him as a figurehead for their campaign against the monarch.The King however,learnt about this and sent assasins to bump off Michael before this could be happen.Michael narrowly escaped with his life and soon after,left for Talahar where he found refuge in the arms of Lord Ressalekh,a former diplomat to Catalon who had come to enjoy the company of the young prince during his stint there. Now he has managed to persuade young Michael to join the expedition and in the process,try to find a new life and leave behind his shattered dreams.

    Note:If you find this insuffecient,look up the character of Prince Michael under the NPC section.You will get a better picture of his personality there.

    Use of magic in Caladin is prohibited and so, you couldn't be a druid in Caladin "freely" without being captured and taken to the city dungeons or killed right on the spot. Magic was made illegal in Caladin for they had read much of history and didn't want what happened to Kasmir, happen to them, but the laws have been loosened a trifle. Though, if a dejy sees you, which is most of the personel on these ships, they will kill you

    Beowulf:
    Spells like making yourself invisible for a limited time nothing stronger than that or you should be working for one of the new colonies as a priest or a druid of something like that.


    Sentinal:

    Who am I supposed to be listening to? I would really like to play a druid in the new colonies, maybe someone who they meet over there who already lives there(native peoples).

    Ok this is my profile Expanded

    Ok well then i have the perfect person to be
    Name:Kitari
    Age:136
    Race:Demon
    Status: Wondering warrior
    History:

    A young demon thats lost without his family, his swordsman ship is not very good, but his speed is excellent. He has seen his parents die before his eyes, his brothers and sisters have dissapeared in thin air. His friends killed, he has found his way to Caladin. As he looks around he notices the place is quite nice, and he would soon stay here and practrice his swordsman ship, and at the same time open a Bato Jitsu arena, and teach people how to use swords, expecially if they go out into the woods to fing iron ore mines.

    Reason for his parents death: His parents died because of a single person who had a grudge against demons. He was not spared in stead a strange power in his body seemed to come to life when he was about to die, in stead, the guy had went crazy and killed him self.

    Why does he use swords: He uses swords because when he was a little kid, there used to be so many people useing bows, bows and arows, knives and magic. Only one person he knew used a sword, which was his dad, and because of that, young Kitari is now well trained as a swords man.

    Why he ran: He ran for many reason, one of wich is that, no one was left alive, he went out to search for a reason that a power of which he has, is left with him. He wants to start a new life and be left to figure out these things on his own.

    Motivation: His motivation for going on this trip, is the smile on his mothers face, before she sacrificed her life to try and destroy the guy behind the killing spree. But in the end, Kitari destroyed the guy not even knowing he did it.
    ((Is that about ok to the rest of you...I'll add more if you want me to))

    Maybe we should wait for Alec to come up with his charrie.We shouldn't start the rp before he is ready.

    Hey, I'm just waiting for you guys to decide what I'm allowed to be doing. Soon as you make up your minds, I'll create my character.

  12. Voyage-A joint idea by Beowulf and Maggot

    #52
    Well,Alec,if you want to be a druid or mage,you can't be with the men from Caladin.You could join the Talaharans though.They probally allow the use of magic,but just to be sure, clarify it with Beowulf.

  13. Voyage-A joint idea by Beowulf and Maggot

    #53
    Yes thank you Maggot and yes Alec you could be a druid for the Talaharans for they allow magic.

    Character

    Name: Benedicte de la Courcel
    Age: 31
    Blood: Human/ dejy
    Gender: Male
    Background: Born to a wealthy trading family in the Western Port cities, he had a deep love for the sea. He joined a ship as quickly as possible and learned to fight the sea monsters and become a mariner. As he grew up he steadily rose in the ranks until he was a Captian of his own ship. The Hellfire. He loved it so much, he loved it more then his own parents. He traveled around the world and learned much of other cultures, but stayed strictly Dejy in mannerisms and personality. When he reached the ports again, he was told once more to become a commodore. Over a whole fleet that was to explore and colonize new lands. He jumped to it and is now preparing to lead the fleets.

    The food supplies on the Caladin fleet will be livestock:

    Cows, pigs, chickens, geese, ox, pidgeons, etc.

    The plant life is restricted due to being able to keep them alive.

    Lettuce, corn, potatos, wheat.

    Quick question: Where has it been explained that Caladin has laws against magic? I can't find it in the Settings Forge thread about Caladin. It's just been mentioned in this thread. I'm not trying to argue about the fact, I would just like to know the logistics behind it: Why is magic outlawed? Who enforces this law? Is magic innate to a person when they are born, or can it be learned as any other skill? If it is innate, how often is someone born with magic abilities? Is it extremely rare, or just uncommon? Etc, etc, etc.. I think you can see what I'm getting at. Just let me know. It'll help me with my character creation.

    In The Settings Menu, out of the Setting Forge when I first made Caladin.

    Magic was outlawed due to its unpredictability and the laws of history that the Historians of Caladin had learned from reading of ancient texts and finding out what had happened to the Kasmir Empire that was largely magical and that had been destroyed by the gods themselves.

    The Militia enforces the law in their region and it is punishable by death whoever is seen practicing it. But the laws have loosened it up, and few pay actual attention to the law, though the Dejy of the west will ceritanly kill anyone who they practicing having their ancestors be slaves to the Kasmir.

    Magic in this world is largely innate, and in Caladin it is very rare. The reson for it being so rare is that the ancestors who moved on to the continent some 2,000 years ago, were decendants of moutian folk who had lived in the Anfalas region in the Kark Moutians. They were driven out by the Grey Elves and Dark Elves of the area and they fled east. They have adapted to using no magic seeing no need for it, but just a few do seem to have it.

    Now I know that this is going to piss some folks off, and I know that I have nothing to do with this RP, but I don't think that you should allow Kalabar to play with that character.
    If you're going to let him play a character that is a Demon (who are generally presented as horrible monsters, but I guess his is a human with samurai skills?), he should at least do it well, but... Well, I think the character right-up speaks for itself.

    And what is with opening up a Bato Jitsu arena?! That just flat out doesn't make sense. First of all, Bato Jitsu is one skill, drawing out your sword really fast; second, in the medieval ages, they did not just build arenas for skills they could NEVER HAVE KNOWN!
    Unless Caladin is in Japan, which I doubt.

    I thus bid you adieu.

  23. Voyage-A joint idea by Beowulf and Maggot

    #63
    Okay. KALABAR! Don't add things to my Caladin without my consent, if you can't do that then you can't join!

    Sentinel and Beowulf,after much thinking I have decided to come up with a new charrie for the Voyage,one that I feel would be able to give me greater freedom when Rping.He will be an ambitious Snake Rider chief that chooses to ally his small but strong tribe with the forces of Caladin,in the hopes of carving out his own maritime empire for his people.It will take me a week or slightly longer,before I am ready to post it.Thank you for your patience on this matter.



    P.S:I will be leaving today for my vacation and will only be back 4 days later.

    #74
    Guys,I know you are impatient and want me to wrap up my character very quickly,but I might take a few days.This I assure you is not due to laziness,but to my ambition to make a charrie worthy of 4 flames.Though I have his personality and motvations ready,i have yet to flesh out the people and events that shape his life.Thank you for your time on this matter.

    Season's Greetings,Maggot.


    P.S:Sent,who would a Snake Rider chieftain have to see in order to strike an alliance with Caladin.

    I imagine it beginning at the harbor where the two of us are cheered by the ecstatic crowds gathered there,with the king himself there to wish us luck.During that scene,we would also explain the purpose behind this voyage as well as the fact that our spies planted in Talahar have reported that the two nights ago,the rival fleet had already left.That would make it urgent for us to travel as fast as possible.

    Beowulf and Alec meanwhile,the two of them in charge of the rival fleet,would be on the open seas and crowing about their headstart on the morons from Calan.
