The coastal nation of Alanis has been battered badly by a seven year war with the empire of Sylfaria. After five years they have rebuilt and have come to be one of the strongest nations in the entire continent of Farelsa; Their secret, an elite group of fighters known as the High Guard of Alanis. More commonly referred to as the Cross Guard.
Almost all of these fighters have the power of Arcana; the ability to manipulate certain elemental energies. Arcana is an ability that all in the world possess but few are able to unlock the full potential of their powers.
This RP is based in the universe of a story that I'm writing, . Possible positions for now only include Cross Guard trainees/officers (Officers only with approval by me) and normal people. If enough people join then I might consider adding a villians position but until then I'll run that. Even if you choose a normal person you still will have to choose an element for that person because I may decide that person is going to go through an event that will awaken their Arcana. Arcana will always be inactive by default unless I say that it isn't. Cross Guard members will use the 'Weapon of Choice' category, all others will leave it blank.
Squad will be filled in later by myself.
For the Arcana the following elements may be selected
Fire: Manipulators of heat and fire. People who wield this Arcana have an immunity to heat in any environment as well as the ability to manifest fire from their body. They have a secondary ability to create illusions by using heat to bend light to cause people to see things that aren't there. They have synergies with Earth and Wind, their "enemy" element is Water. This is the most common Arcana. People with this Arcana are usually drawn to fighting styles focusing on semi-swift but strong strikes. Wind: People with this Arcana are highly sought after because not many people are born with it. They are often recessively found in people with Lightning or Wood Arcana, never in the pure Wind form. They are characterized by greatly increased speed and the ability to manipulate the air and the pressure of the air.
Water: People with this Arcana can manipulate water in all its forms. They are also unique in that they have the ability to breathe underwater by using their Arcana to strip oxygen from the water to absorb it.
Earth: Wielders of this Arcana sport greatly enhanced strength and the ability to create shockwaves in the very ground that people stand on as well as moving the earth.
Lightning: This is one of the Wind-hybrid Arcanas. Formed by a bond with Fire this Arcana sports the ability to control the electrical charge in the environment as well as the ability to teleport at short range (Flash step sort of)
Wood: The second of the Wind-hybrid Arcanas. People with this ability can manipulate plants as well as use healing energies.
Fire, Water, Earth, Lightning and Wood are all fairly common. Wind is the rarest with the so-called "Wind-hybrid" Arcana's being a bit more common, with Water, Earth then Fire being more common in that order.
As a side note if anyone wants Wind Arcana they must let me know because I have to work them into the story a little differently because of the rarity of such powers.
Arcana is hereditary, people get it from their parents. It is usually based on the mother unless the mother happens to have Wind in which case it depends on the father. (Wind and Earth or Wind and Wind are the only conditions under which a child with Wind Arcana can be born.)
