Legend of Zelda: Dawn of the Legend

**Avankiri** · 04-02-2008, 10:23 PM

Background on the Story

20 years before Ocarina of Time ever happened, there was a great war waged in Hyrule, a war between the Hylians and the Gerudo. The King of Thieves, Ganondorf, seeks a way into the Sacred Realm to obtain the all powerful Triforce. You, as a teenager, heard of this legendary power, and you feel like adventuring away from home, away from your parents,and into the world at last to find the so called Triforce, and maybe meet some pretty girl or something along the way. Will you help the light to battle the dark? Will you seek the Triforce alongside Ganondorf? Or will you seek the power for yourself, and plunge all into darkness? The choice is yours.

How to Play
To play this game, enter your name, age, race, gender, class(fighter, mage, thief, blah blah blah), and date of birth, and your personal biography, than I will give you a place to start depending on your race. Each race has special advantages, and they each use different weapons.

Races:

Hylian: The dominant race in Hyrule, the Hylians have the ability to use incredibly strong magic, more powerful than the Gerudo, but not as much as the Kokiri. Hylians are the most balanced and should be used for beginners to get a better look and feel for the characters they are to play. They have the unique sense of" Awareness of Area", which allows them to sense traps or monsters, and other things. Hylian women have the most beautiful bodies around, and can seduce any man or woman. Hylians men are well built usually, and serve their country with undying loyalty and unfleeting courage.

Gerudo: The second most dominant race from the Hylians, the Gerudo are normally all women until every 100 years, when one man is born to them, whom they make their king. The Gerudo have the best thieving skills around. They have been known to steal from the richest people and they never knew what hit them. Fortunately, most of the Gerudo are found,though it is very rare. They also have the unique ability called" Chameleon" which allows them to blend in with the crowd if they wish. The Gerudo have good tempers, but the bodies of the females are seductive to any man and woman alike, and can be used to lure enemies to their demise.

Sheika: Known as the "Shadow People", the Sheikah are known for their calm demeanor, and many of them serve the Hylians as attendants, one in particular the attendant of the Hylian princess, Zelda. The Sheikah have a reputation for being stealthy, and because of this, keep to themselves. They have two special abilities; "Vanish", which allows them to disappear into thin air, and "Shadow's Touch", which grants them the ability to control the darkness and undead. The Sheikah are fairly descent people, hard to control, but they can be the most loyal of friends, if treated appropriately. Their mysterious ways, and the flashy clothing the women wear, make them both feared and thought of as prostitutes and whores.

Kokiri: The most mysterious of the races of Hyrule, the Kokiri appear at first to be little children. But ask the great tree, the Deku Tree, and he'll tell you that at least one of them is in his or her early 20's. Many Kokiri have the unique ability to use the 2nd most powerful magic in the land, second hand only to the Zora. The Kokiri have the unique ability called" Forest Help", which allows them to call upon the roots of the might Great Deku Tree to block attacks against them. The Kokiri, due to their height, can get into places adults can't, therefore making valuable party members.

Zora: The water dwelling people of Zora's Domain, the Zora are part fish, part dolphin, part human, and just plain kind to visitors. They are known as excellent swimmers,use powerful magic, and they like to collect things they find in the bottom of Lake Hylia. Another fact is that they use the unique ability called" Whale Water", which transforms the water around them into a whale capable of crushing opponents to death,or just scaring the crap out of the enemy. The Zora can breathe underwater, and this makes them great for diving missions and searching the waters of the land.

Goron: The mountain dwelling people of Death Mountain, the Gorons are known to be in the shape of boulders, until they awake out of sleep and then you see they are just brown rock hard, rock colored creatures with horns on their heads. Gorons are incredibly resistant to heat,and they can shed their skin and sell them as the famous Hylian Shields,making the perfect protection against fire and heat. The Gorons also have the unique ability called" Fire's hand", which allows them to turn their hands into lava-hot fists, and punch right through their enemies. Gorons have a natural tendency to curl up when attacked.

Rules:

All NPC's will be played by me, and when you talk, I will talk back through the NPC. All fights will be a mix of you strategizing, while I counter and make sure you either win the fight or come close to dieing, but escape. I will never let you die, unless you do something stupid.

You start out at home when your leader comes to greet you with a grin of absolute happiness. You wonder why this is and ask, geting the reply of" Today, you are of age, and now I can tell you about the legend of the Triforce, which you might already know." The leader teaches you the legend and you grin too, thinking this is the perfect oppertunity to go off adventuring.

Name: Artemis Leonius
Age: Looks about 18 or 19, is actually in a range from 17 to 22.
Race: Mother= Hylian, Father= Sheikah......Hylikah? Sheikian? I dunno!
Gender: Male
D.o.B: All Hallows' Eve aka Halloween night, year=unknown
Bio: Subject to numerous spells, curses, hexes, and jinxes, it was spoken of him that he was to lead the path to tradgedy. One day, this came true, for he accidentally burned his house down, and he was sent to a Hyrulian prison, then sent to Kakariko to live with his mother, for Father had died and left him only one thing; his sword. From that day on, he vowed to never be a bad person, to step up for others when no one would, to claim his birth right, the Triforce, and to become a great hero.

Name: Haruka Hibiki

Age: Between 18-20

Race: Sheika

Gender: Male

D.o.B: Unknown

Bio: Not very well known, Haruka mostly keeps to himself. His parents where supposedly killed while he was still a baby, for them not following their masters orders. Learning of this at a young age his life goal is to find the people who sentenced his parents to death. Haruka was taught to use both light and dark magic as a child, though, he leans more towards using his dark magic. Haruka has yet to serve anyone through his life and doesn't plan to do so any time soon.

--------------

As Haruka left his home, after learning of the legend known as " Triforce ". Haruka had heard the word before, but never really knew anything about it until now. Even with his new found knowledge, his goal was still what it was before, finding the " masters " that killed his parents. Haruka vanished from the spot he was standing, and re-appeared outside of his village.

Hakura continued to do as he would normally, entering various villages, trying to learn as much as possible about the people who killed his family.

(( Are people like Link/Zelda/Ganondorf going to be included in the RP or are they dead in this time period? ))

**Avankiri** · 04-02-2008, 11:06 PM

((It's 20 years prior to Ocarina of Time. Ganon is probably about 20 or so. Link was only 11 or so when the game started, and Zelda was somewhere around the same age. You do the math.))

Artemis sat quietly in an apple tree, thinking and eating a few apples while humming a bit. It was the usual day for him. Nothing out of the ordinary in the village. Occasional weirdo here and there, sure, but nothing out of the ordinary at all...Although, there was that Sheikah teenager who kept visiting from time to time. Artemis wasn't sure why, but the kid seemed ok, even if his intentions were a little...hidden.

Name: Eirei Zelpusto

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Race: Gerudo Mother, Hylian Father: Hyludo??

Bio: A stunning long haired brunette who can basically render any male incapable, no matter how hard, with seduction. However, in personality she is very warm and kind, and always strives to do the right thing. It helps of course to be absolutely beautiful. Eirei was born to parents who were loving and caring, and she had a very prestigious upbringing. Loves to study, watch nature, practice archery, and is an extremely proficient magic wielder leaning towards the light. She wears skin tight gowns most of the time, emphasizing her body, and as a side effect, prolonged nosebleeds occur wherever she goes.

Eirei strolled alongside the path, immersed in a expositional text on modern mathematics and not noticing the people who sat under the trees or the sheikahs that wandered here and there.

**TsukuyomiKakashi** · 04-03-2008, 12:56 AM

Haruka walked up to a village gate with two guards by it, blocking entrance. " May I enter your village? " Haruka asked politely, with his hand behind his back, charging with dark energy, in case they were to decline.

**Avankiri** · 04-03-2008, 01:12 AM

Artemis yawned and stretched, then jumped from the tree, landing beside his kitten, whom he picked up and held close to him, snuggling. "Silly Rosalie." He let her sit precariously, but happily, balanced on his shoulder.

The guards merely smiled. One grabbed his hand and the other pushed him to the wall. "We do not like violence in this village. Do not dare think of using such power here. Our protector will kill you on the spot if you do." They let him go and waved. "Have a nice day here."

**Ceraas** · 04-03-2008, 01:17 AM

Name:Logain T'shbara
Age: 22
Race: Hylian
Gender: Male
D.o.B: Unknown

Bio: Logain grew up in a small town between Lake Hylia and Hylian Fields. Growing up, Logain didn't have many friends, because there were very few children to play with. The town got by mostly on farming, with some trade help coming from the Zoras.

When the first signs of a war began brewing, Logain was 17. At first, it was just large boulders and pieces of wood washing down into Lake Hylia. Then it was bodies. On the eve of the new year, A Gerudo raiding party attacked the village. Logain was out, heading back from a trade run with Kakariko Village. When he returned home the majority of the town, and the people he knew, were dead. His father told him, with his dying breath, that a group of people, including his sister, had been taken captive by the Gerudo.

With the burial of his entire town behind him, Logain began traveling to learn anything that would help him with his revenge. In his travels, Logain picked up a powerful long leafblade he dubbed Tasymehu, as well as learning a few spells, all in the quest to save his sister and have his revenge.

Though he is now a cynical, dark warrior, Logain used to be light-hearted and friendly. Perhaps, some part of him is still untainted by his desire for revenge.

====

The night air blew it's frosty touch over the fields. Tiny shards of ice began to cover the ground with flakes of snow floating down from the sky. The only sounds that could be heard was the yelling of one particular young man, dancing with his sword. Slash, slash, parry, slash, stab, stab, twirl, parry, stab, slash. On and on he went, continuing his fight with an opponent not there.

'Gotta get stronger. Gotta be ready.' Logain told himself as he sheathed his blade and picked up his black tunic, gave it a shake, and put it back on. He checked his belt and boots, made sure he blade was secured, then turned and looked down the slope of the mountain. Further down, at the base of the mountain, Logain could see the fields of Hyrule.

With an explosion of movement, Logain jumped off the ledge and began his decent, alternating between rock jumping, and simple running. He knew it was time. Something was pulling him back to Hyrule, and that meant the time to save his sister was at hand.

**Poparteeb** · 04-03-2008, 01:29 AM

Eirei felt something coming. Sweeping the long hair out of her eyes, she cast a lumination spell, and soon could see a dark shape weaving and running towards Hyrule. She sprang to meet it.

**Avankiri** · 04-03-2008, 01:37 AM

((This is Twilight Princess Ganon we're talking about. Ya know, the one who looked totally badass and had some of the coolest lines...))

A dark man sat upon his throne, brooding. This wasn't good. his thieves had not found the secret entrance at all...They had to find some way inside. And they needed to find it soon. Without the entrance, the Sacred Realm, and the Triforce, would be forever at the edge of his grasp. Since all the other entrances were sealed by sleeping Sages, the man needed someone who would unknowingly open the path for him...

A young girl, maybe 14 or so, entered the chamber of her adored king. "Ganondorf-dono...We...We've found it..." The girl was breathless and tired. But she was happy to see the smile instantly cross her master's face.

"You've found it?" He asked, standing and picking up his mighty sword, strapping it into its sheathe and tieing the sheathe around his waist. "Good job, my dear. Go rest."

The young thief nodded and ran off to her own chambers. Ganondorf smiled wider than Lord JabuJabu when he was fed tons of fish in one meal. He made his way out to the desert air, then left with some guards, heading out to the Desert Collosus. He smiled when they reached the seal, kneeling and smirking. "Heheheh....Mitsketa..."
{Found you; I found you}

Beneath him sat a glowing tile imprinted with the mark of the Triforce. He knelt and tapped it, then was instantly transported to a different world...

When he returned, he told the one's who had followed him into the Desert temple about a world where everything was beautiful...Then, without mercy, he killed them and left, intent on his dark designs, fueled by his recent success.

**TsukuyomiKakashi** · 04-03-2008, 02:22 AM

" Hmm, sorry for angering you two " Haruka bowed and turned around, walking away. As he walked away, dark souls devoured the two guards, as Haruka laughed, and continued walking.

**Avankiri** · 04-03-2008, 02:46 AM

There was a flash. Before Haruka stood a man dressed in a silver tunic, long sword in hand. "Who dares defy the sanctity of this holy town?" He held the sword's edge up to Haru's neck. "Well?" The blade drew the smallest bit of blood.

**TsukuyomiKakashi** · 04-03-2008, 03:51 AM

Haruka grabbed the blade with his hand, moving it away from his neck. " They struck me first. The only reason I had the energy ready was just in case. It wouldn't have been very smart to go up to a village you've never been in without being prepared, now would it? "

Haruka passed through the man and kept on walking. " Now, if you don't mind, I must continue on. "

**Avankiri** · 04-03-2008, 01:21 PM

The man turned and twitched. "They were protecting this village. Now I must ask you to leave. That, or be arrested for the murder of two men who only did what they thought was right..." There was a small flash, and a second man appeared before them.

"Let him go, dear boy. The guards are alright for now...Young lad..." The man walked closer to Haruka. His grey beard swayed a bit. "You may stay here, but I ask that you never use your magic against anymore of our people. We were a peaceful place until you came."

Artemis sighed and sheathed his sword.

**Poparteeb** · 04-03-2008, 01:27 PM

Eirei glanced behind, it seems it was like choosing between the mysterious figure and the Hylian figure sheathing the sword. Making up her mind, she went back to see what sort of problem had arisen from Artemis's predicament. (She doesn't know his name yet.)

**TsukuyomiKakashi** · 04-03-2008, 03:21 PM

(( I'm going to be gone the rest of the day as well as for some of Friday. If you would like to control my character until then go ahead ))

Haruka smiled politely at the man and kept on walking. Maybe he is one who would have some info..thats for another time.
