~Introduction~


Halt!

Ah, there you be, welcome welcome. This is Ruzar, a peaceful realm abiding to the law of the Royal family. We have but few enemies, and our sworn enemy is thy dragon. A ruthless and merciless killer, ravaging our villages, stealing our livestock. Whatever shall we do?

Slayers, we are needing brave and noble slayers. Knights willing to die for their cause. But you aren't a knight you say? Well then, are you willing to train endlessly for this battle of good versus evil? Man versus beast? Hmm, very well then, apply within ye brave soul.

~Plot~


User Image


Dragons, too many dragons. They be coming into the village now, ransacking it, killing off our livestock. Isn't there any one out there who can stop them? We need slayers, brave knights to kill off these beasts.

The women are scared, the children afraid to leave home. We need help, and fast.

Whats that you say? Love? Never. Who could ever love such a horrid beast? Well, if you believe it, then shouldn't you try to stop these slayers? Save these dragons from an eternity of shame? After all, wasn't this once Draconia? A place both humans and dragons lived in peacefully? Aye, it was.

Should you chose the path of love, create a sanctuary for these beasts to prevent any more from getting killed by these knights. Fare thee well mortal.

[Be aware that this can easily change as we go. But we choose that fate]

~Setting~


This be the Realm of Ruzar. Newly named after many new rulers have taken the throne. We used to be called Draconia. The dragons and us lived as one, we used them for battle. However, as time goes on, we find no need for battle. Dragons have begun to be shunned upon and cast away from our villages.

Our Realm is filled with greenery, flowing waterfalls and anything else you can think of when you think fantasy. Technology is non-existent as we are from medieval times.

~Accepted Characters: Dragons~


Played By: El Scorpo
Name: Nimbrethil Kilvix
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Appearance: Dragon Form
Human Form
Personality: A bit smug, but not too full of himself, Nimbrethil defines a dragon in denial; he always counters an insult on his race with another, and is rather venomous when it comes to dragon-hunting.
Biography: Found in a forest just outside the capital city of Draconia, Nim was taken in by a servant of the castle. After becoming a squire for one of the knights, and becoming a knight himself, he rose to the rank of lieutenant, and now stands proud among the Draconia military. However, what he hides is that he is a dragon; every day is contradiction, for every day is dragon-slaying. He refuses to participate in most of these deeds, unless the reptillian beast has committed treacherous doings.
Weapon: A long silver halberd, effective at killing enemy horses, infantry, and jabbing into the heart of a dragon.
Rank: Noble, a lieutenant.


Played By: Scorp985
Name: Kolon Whistlewind
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance: Dragon Form
Human Form
Personality: Confused and frightened, Kolon is generally very meak and seemingly unthreatening, but can also be an impulsive attacker. He tends to have sudden outburts that display his feelings.
Biography: Born and raised with other dragons far from the capital city Draconia, Whistlewind has never really known the prejudice towards his kind, and is crushed to realize how his race is fairing. Never trained in anything aside from a bow and arrow, his hand-to-hand and melee skills are nai useless against any military officers. However, his skills navigating and fighting in dragon form are a force to be reckoned with, as he's grown up living in only that way.
Weapon: His large talons in dragon form, and his trusty bow and arrow in human form.
Rank: Peasant.


Played By: BlackMageLeah
Name: Eclipse Moonwood. Her name was chosen from that fact that she was born on the night of a total lunar eclipse. However, when she doesn't want to give out her name, she goes by various aliases. Among many other commoners who thought her name "odd" she has been dubbed "Ellen." When her work calls for a more formal alias, she uses the name "Calypso."
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Appearance: Dragon Form
Human Form
Personality: Eclipse is rather hotheaded and bossy, but this is merely her exterior. She is cunning and sly, and isn't above doing things she really shouldn't to get what she wants and needs. She is a compuslive and convincing liar, and when she actually does tell the truth, it is usually a version twisted to her advantage, and she often omits important details for her own reasons. She hates humans with a passion, slayers in particular.
Biography: Eclipse was found as a toddler in a mountainous, rocky area. The couple who found her - a miner and his wife - raised her for a few years, oblivious to her true species. However, the miner died in an accident when she was around six, and his wife died shortly after of an unknown illness. From that point on, she lived alone. Regular trips to the mountain where her "father" had died lead to a meeting with a small group of dragons, where she met her true father for the first time in at least four years.
Somewhere in the next year, with regular visits with her true family, Eclipse picked up the task of being a spy for dragonkind. She now works to uncover the plans of the slayers and inform their targets beforehand, and works with the occasional passing dragon to plot the slayers' downfall, warrior by warrior, one by one.
Weapon: Eclipse generally uses tiny daggers, scalpels, needles, throwing knives, and various other things - anything that you can hide easily and use without people noticing too much.
Rank: Among dragons, Eclipse is somewhat akin to royalty - her father is one of the most powerful dragons in the area, giving him status, of a sort. Among humans, she is naught but a commoner.

Played By: icey_paradise
Name: Caigon Mist Devonshire
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Appearance: Caigon Mist Devonshire
Personality: People describe her as relatively outgoing who is ready to help whenever help is needed. She can be naïve at times as well as klutzy. She doesn’t let that stop her though. Half the time, she appears to be in a trance as she day dreams about better days. Days where she doesn't have to work and can find someone to spend her life with. Naturally, like any girl her age, she wishes for a knight to whisk her up into his arms and carry her off, but she knows the restrictions.
Biography: She is one of the last remaining royals from the first royal family. However, none in her family remember it, so she has been raised in the local village. She helps around her farm, caring for the animals and her younger siblings.
Weapon: A small dagger that she only uses for protection. Her father gave it to her on her 'coming of age' birthday. That of 13. Never has she had to use it, nor plans to use it.
Rank: Peasant.

Played By: Srettel Valore
Name: Leleth Miliat
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Appearance: Human
Leleth Miliat
Personality: Leleth Miliat is the perfect image of the serious type, she usually only speaks when she has something important to say. Leleth has a very strong connection to otherworldy beings, and is very friend oriented and would gladly sacrifice herself for any of her friends. She is mature and walks with a certain respectable grace.
Biography: In a land far away from here resided a small town, placed right beside the ocean. This is where Leleth Miliat was born and raised. One tranquil night the peaceful quiet town was raided. Women and children were taken away to unknown places while the men were murdered in the worst way imagineable. Screams of the women can be heard above the crackling of the fire. The night sky turned red from the flames that engulfed the little towm, The ocean became infested with human blood. A woman grabs hold of Leleth and stuffs her into a secret compartment.. "you must stay hidden Little Leleth, remain out of sight...don't forget us, don't forget who you are...you must live and carry on our legacy" She whispered as she lowered leleth down. Tears run down her face as she takes one last look at her daughter and closes the hatch. The cracks in the floor allow Leleth to see everything. A man barges through the little hut door and grabs hold of the woman...Leleth's mother. Leleth covers her mouth to hide the gasp...her eyes widen as the man smiles evilly... instinctively she closes her eyes..She can hear struggling, things getting knocked over, and then...the painful cries of her mother mixed with the laughter of the man. Leleth holds in her tears as the hut falls silent. A thud is heard a liquid falls onto Leleth's knee, looking up her eyes meet her mothers. The warmth that once resided was no longer there and in its stead cold nothing filled those once beautiful eyes. Her throat had been sliced, the pool of blood grew around her and fell through the cracks. Letting out a shriek she stopped herself. The man turned and listened...he walked back into the center of the room and listened carefully, Leleth held her tiny hands to her mouth and tried to hold back the tears. Growing impatient the man left and Leleth remained trapped in that small compartment...trapped in a rain of blood. More of Leleth's story will be revelaed as we journey together.
Weapon: Magic, Mysticism... She also uses a metal claw attached to her hand the fingertips fashioned into knives for close range combat.
Rank: Peasant

Caigon sat on the rotting wood fence marking the edge of her farm. She looked over the surrounding field, day dreaming. In the distance, she saw the castle and sighed. Oh how she longed to be part of that life. Peasantry, why was she cursed to live this existence? Work at dawn and all through dusk. She was tired of it.

Will someone not rescue me? she pondered, sighing. She hopped off the fence, and began heading back to her small house. She described it as a hut though, it was barely big enough to fit her family of seven. Being the eldest, she was required to look after all the little ones.

Upon entering her father looked up from what he was working on, a new crib for the baby that was coming. "Have you finished your duties?" he questioned her, looking back at the crib.

"Yes sir," she said, nodding her head and pulling out a chair to sit down.

"The pigs need their slop. I think something has been coming on the land eating it." He didn't even look at her.

"Yes sir."

She stood, heading back to the barn and gathering the food for the pigs. Redundancy, that was the only word she would use.

"Cai? Whats the matter?" came a small voice from the shadows. Her youngest brother never missed a trick.

Chuckling she walked over and sat next to him, new puppies started jumping over her which made her smile more. "Well Liryl, don't you ever dream of getting in that castle?"

He just scratched her head and she laughed. "Never you mind then." She went back to finishing her chore of feeding the pigs. "Lunch will be served soon, you should clean up."

Eclipse sat up in her small home and yawned. She had been asleep on the small cot that was her bed. Her short violet-black hair was touseled, and her normal cap lay on the floor. Her dark blue eyes with long, blackish eyelashes batted up and down lazily. It was well into the morning, judging by the sun coming in her makeshift window, probably almost lunchtime. The young dragon nearly always slept in, since she did most of her work at night.

Blearily rubbing her eyes, she slid out of bed and began to dress. Her outfit was a simple one - a light blue shirt, wide legged black pants with a worn out sash and a lightweight black cloth jacket. She picked up the black cap off the floor and dusted it off before sticking it on her head. All the clothes were worn and torn, and she didn't wear shoes. In her human form and these clothes, she was the very image of the usual, unsuspicous street rat. The only thing anyone would ever suspect her of was thievery. No one would ever think that a pauper could ever be a spy.

"Let's see," she muttered, "What's on today's agenda? I could try to get into the palace again, but that might be difficult. Perhaps I could... disguise as some sort of vendor... and offer free items to the knights to get some information... but I'm sure that would look suspicious. Hm." She leaned on the wall to think, her body hanging slightly out the window.

"Mornin', Ellen!" an old woman outside called, "Good thing ye slept in. Couldn't get no food this mornin', them city guards were everywhere keepin' me from takin'. They still ain't gone, so ye'll hafta go lookin' yerself fer food."

"My name ain't Ellen!" Eclipse snapped, "I tell ye that every mornin'!" She inherently spoke with precise and perfect grammar and pronunciation, but a street rat with a noble's vocabulary and style of speech wasn't as inconspicuous as she wanted to be.

Stretching her arms out above her head, she grabbed her tiny, worn out purse and attached it to her ripped up sash. She noted with satisfaction how she looked completely unarmed. In truth, the insides of her jacket wrists were home to a variety of rather sharp throwing knives, and several small daggers were flat against her stomach. Pleased with her armaments, she sauntered out of the open arch that was the "door" to her one room "house". It was really more of a hollowed out mound of dirt than a house, but that was what the houses were in this area of the city.

Tilting her cap down to shade her sensitive eyes from the sun, she shoved her hands into her pockets and began to strut down the street, whistling a cheery tune and completely ignoring everyone around her.

(Bleh, he's not shown on the character sheets yet because Icey's offline, but I'll just use 'im anyway. ^^ Kolon, I mean... not Nimbrethil.)

WOOSH!

Breaking the silence that had loomed over the peasant-filled streets, the shadow of a large bi-... Oh, who would be fooled. The shadow of a dragon loomed and cast darkness across the urban terrace, and a crystallic blue dragon could be seen overhead.

There were screams from several women, and a few people gasped. Mothers pulled their children close to them and cowered as the beast swept past... and were greeted by several drops of blood.

Kolon was bleeding, badly. Why were they shooting at him...? What was bringing this Hell down?

Finally descending back down and crashing into several small shops and structures, he winced at the impact. The dragon's eyes were shut, and he was left bleeding on the ground. Many people yelped with fright and ran away from the scene. Hopefully, someone would care... and show it before the guards arrived.

Eclipse jumped as she heard a crash. She stopped whistling abruptly and began to run to the source of the noise.

Well, well. What have we here?

It was a large, blue dragon. And he wasn't in good shape.

Wracking her memory, she tried to recall if this was a dragon she knew... but nothing came up. She had never met this blue beast before.

"A-are you alright?!" she cried out, noticing the blood that had begun to pool around the other. She had forgotten her "peasant dialect" in her concern.

Glancing around in panic for any approaching guards, she saw none. Breathing a sigh of relief, she walked calmly to the fallen dragon's head, ignoring any frightened gasps from the few onlookers. Lifting it up off the ground with a surprising amount of strength in a such a thin girl, she inspected his face. She didn't recognize it. There was always a chance that he might recognize her, though, if he were to open his eyes. While to a human she was obviously a human, dragons could always identify their own kind, regardless of what they looked like. "Who shot you?" she asked softly, "Whoever it is will be here soon. They're after the bounties for certain. We have to get you out of here."

He opened one eye and let out a soft grunt of relief after realizing she was a dragon, as well.

Hunters... Kolon answered telepathically, And Draconia guards...

The dragon sure wasn't in good condition. There were three arrows in his side, clearly fired by longbows, that had pierced through his scales. A spear was spiked into his back, which was where most of the blood seemed to be flowing from... although, she couldn't see what was under his un-armored belly.

Please help... he pleaded, shutting the eye again.
PostPosted: Mon Jul 30, 2007 1:55 pm


Look, she responded in the same way, I need you to... I don't know, roar or something. Something that will get everyone away from here so I can change forms. If they see me, my job as a spy among the humans goes down the drain. She looked around. The hunters and guards still hadn't appeared - the panic in the city must have slowed them down. I should be strong enough to carry you out of here. There's nothing I can do for you here, but if we get a little way away I can safely tend to your wounds. Would that be alright?

Looking around, she noted people's stares as she so calmly stood near the dragon. "What are you looking at?!" she snapped, "I got here first! The bounty is mine!" Acting was an important skill for a spy, and Eclipse was truly top-notch.

I'll do what I can... Thank you...

With that 'said', he whipped his tail violently and clapped it loudly onto the floor, then letting out a mighty roar that sent the frightened people away in a crowd of mass panic.

Whistlewind had apparently used the last of his energy, and let his head crash to the ground, unconcious.
