Distinct Prophet

Story:
The Mana Tree had returned to the world and the Sproutlings had all vanished, leaving to rejoin the tree and make it whole again. The darkness was beaten by the hero Khoval. Peace settled again to the world as it flourished with the renewed power of Mana. There would always be monsters and always there would be people wishing to use the power of Mana to their own evil purposes.

For those reasons, a powerful barrier, erected by the Hero and the Mana Goddess prevents those with evil hearts or the intent to use the Tree's power for war to approach the Tree.

A few years have passed. Khoval now has taken to training others to take go on adventures as he once had. What enemies they would face, none could say. This now, is their story.

Distinct Prophet

Rules:
1. Obey the Gaia ToS.
2. Be kind to your fellow RPers.
3. Please try to be semi-literate. You don't need to have big paragraphs per post, but please try to use quotations and avoid * and such for actions. Also, continual one liners are not good for your health.
4. We're starting after a finished game, however not all the quests were done. Still, there are going to be new artifacts to find, new places to go, and more people to meet. This will also add new quests.
5. No God-modding. Even Khoval gets hit when fighting.
6. If you get into a fight with a Boss Monster, you must have either myself or a person I deem worthy to play out the boss. Remember, boss monsters are much harder than normal monsters, you may have to run and try later after you've gained some experience. Minor enemies are not as important but what you get from an enemy, be it lucre, items, or nothing at all, is decided by me.
7. The only way to kill another player is in an agreed fight where you may die as well. Such fights must be agreed upon by both players and be watched by me. Characters that die arrive in The Underworld. They can meet other dead people there, such as Larc and Draconis. A player can be ressurrected by completing a trial set up by me and having another player pray for them to return.
8. I'm only taking 3 'Hero' Characters (as the 4th is already reserved. Khoval is not included in the 4, though he uses the same form)

Distinct Prophet


Weapons, Armors, and Instruments:

Upon starting, if you are one of the 'hero' characters, you start with a Menos Bronze Haulberk and a Menos Bronze Weapon of your choice, as well as 100 Lucre to start. Quests, monster fighting, and participating in training can get you more Lucre and maybe an item, as well as experience in which to get new skills and Secret Techniques.

You will not start with a magical instrument, though you can have one that you just play for entertainment.

Skills:

You start with Jump, Crouch, Cheer, Lunge, Retreat, Push, Defend, Spin. As you undergo training or as you defeat monsters, you may learn new skills, such as Double Jump, Moonsault, ect. decided upon by myself. Under the Skills list on your character, the skills you have gained will be added.

For reference, the hero characters just put None Yet or something under skills as they just start with the basics.

Special Techniques:

These Techniques are powerful attacks that have different effects and can be learned depending on skills you have gained and previous STs. To learn STs you must use ones you have and either undergo training or defeat monsters. I will tell you when you gain a technique and what the range and power is. A technique is only stable when you have the correct weapon equipped. Trying to use a technique you don't have the right weapon equipped for leads to very bad things. You start with one basic Special Technique based on what weapon you have.

It should be noted that attacks that have the same name as another for a different weapon do not get learned at the same time you learn them for another weapon, with some exceptions.

'Hero' Characters:

If you are one of the 4 'Hero' characters, you will stay at Khoval's house, with Bud and Lisa. You will have training you can do as well as daily chores, such as feeding the animals in the Corral, tending the orchard, cleaning the house, or other things. As the game progresses, you may gain access to the Smithy, or Instrument Room (no golems in this RP). Once you have access, you may use them. Also you will be allowed to keep pets of your own in the Corral once you find some. Lil' Cactus will also keep notes of what quests people complete.

Canon Characters:

Not much to say on this subject. If you're a Canon character, you will have that person's weapon, armor, and abilities. You also can face the 'Heroes' or help them, depending on what is currently going on. Please try to stick with their personalities. Below are 3 examples.

Niccolo: The person that plays Nic will have glove weapons and be good at jumping and such. Also Niccolo's personality is one of a wandering merchant trying to sell things at prices a lot higher than would be normal (50,000 Lucre for a wheel anyone?).

Pearl: She has no weapon and does not fight. She often gets lost in thought and wanders off somewhere. Pearl is also very kind and shy, so she blushes a good deal when rescued or someone helps her. Normally found with Elazul or having wandered off on her own somewhere. As a Jumi Guardian, she has a Core that she has to protect as her life is bound to it.

Elazul: A Jumi Knight, he as well has a Core, like Pearl, that he has to protect. He also protects Pearl with his life. In battle he weilds a sword, though surprisingly, he carries no shield. He can seem very harsh and demanding, but often is seen worrying about Pearl. His goal is to find other Jumi and try to restore their society, when not trying to find Pearl after she's wandered off.

He lives on a hill in a small house (though it has been extended to add room for the new students) with an orchard, monster corral, and a small cave around it. He currently teaches 4 students, when they listen and are not out trying to have their own adventures. No one would have guessed he started his own adventures with only a staff and bronze haulberk. He didn't even pick up a sword till much later in his journeys.
Other: Khoval seems to hold many secrets in his head and tells no one. He is kind and thoughtful, though he always seems to be looking for something. His Crest is a depiction of the Mana Tree with the 8 Mana Spirits floating about it. There also is details of small leafy balls about the tree, floating under small puffs of something. His motto is "The world is what you make it. The actions of even just one can affect us all." When he isn't teaching he likes to take trips out to see some of the places of his hardest battles or talk to friends he's made.

Since fighting was the only thing he was good at, he joined a mercenary group, where he stayed for 10 years. Then he met Khoval, and became his apprentice.

Gaia Name: Rionarch
Character Name: Rion
Gender: Female

Bio: Rion lived in Polpota Bay her entire life watching the different ships and travelers come in and out of the city. As a young girl she came across the Pirate Penguins and became amused in their ways. Since then she has been emulating them and began training to someday make it onto the crew herself, penguin or not. Much to the annoyance of her parents, Rion has seemed to avoided growing into a mature lady and continues on acting like a child but not as naively. Rion went to Khoval's training not for the legendary mana excusion he had been on, but for the fact that he had several run ins with the beloved pirates. Hopefully he'd be able to help her learn whats needed for the crew.

Distinct Prophet

Khoval yawned as he awoke, rubbing his eyes. Going over to the window of his room he looked out over the land. Each day he wondered if the world had really be created by his imagination, or if he was just one lucky guy. In a corner of the room was a small box, showing the part of the world he lived in. Inside were small things he had found and liked, representing various places. The funniest thing was, when he explored areas after placing a new item down, he would normally find new places. The weirdest was the small rusted sword. When he had placed it down, he could have sworn that he saw or at least felt a rush of mana off in the distance. That is when he saw the tree for the first time.

The man shook his head and adjusted his hat as he shook off the memories and with a wave to Lil' Cactus went downstairs, strapping his sword to his belt as he went.
Arc opened his eyes and yawned. He rolled out of bed and stretched, then did his morning exercises. When he was finished with that, he got dressed and strapped on his sword. Feeling refreshed, Arc went outside to take a walk. Upon his return, he goes to see his master.

"Master Khoval, what jobs do you have for me today?" Arc asks.

Distinct Prophet

Khoval sweatdropped as the older man spoke. "Please just go check on Trent and Rabi and Chotti. Then when you're done we'll get some breakfast and well, up to you."
"Yes sir." Arc flashed a quick smile. Arc was several years older than Khoval, but he held great respect for the younger hero. For some reason, though, Khoval sometimes seemed to be bothered by the age difference.

Arc walks around the house to check up on Trent.
"Everything alright, Trent?" Even though Arc talked to Khoval, he didnt really like to talk very much.

Distinct Prophet

The big tree shook and looked at his branches before smiling. "The mana is flowing great." Moving a branch over he shook off a couple big seeds and a flat one off. "Here, I found these."
"Thank you Trent. Have a great day." Arc reaches up and takes the seeds, puts them in his pockets, then walks around to the corral to check up on Rabi and Chotti.

Distinct Prophet

The Rabite was just hopping around chasing a butterfly. Chotti, the Chobin Hood sat against a fence post seemingly asleep with his bow across his little legs.
