Descent Into Darkness

**Avankiri** · 05-24-2008, 01:58 AM

It began with the fall of Nazi Germany. Our lives depended on hiding in the deep forests...If we didn't hide, we would be found and slaughtered...Because in a world of technology, nobody needs the power of sages and sorceresses anymore. We create their spectacular weapons and their mobile war machines, and what happens to us as a reward? They throw us out and exile us completely...But a war is now coming that threatens the entire existence of all mankind. Germany rises again, this time under the hidden heir of a Gregory Rasputin. And that is something we Magi refuse to stand and watch! Even if they despise us, we will stand and fight for them...Magi law number 1: Be thou for the world and its people.

I am Magi, S Class, Sage. This is our story.

(If you need any kind of clarification, please tell me.)

Magick Types:

C Class:
Illusion Magick - Used for setting traps or deceiving the senses
Stealth Magick - Used for sneaking past others, usually in the form of blending into the scenery
Support Magick - Used by healer Magi to recover wounds and give attributive boosts
Alchemy Magick - Used for creating one object from another

B Class:
Fire Style- Centers on the element of Fire
Water Style - Centers on the element of Water
Wind Style - Centers on the element of Wind
Earth Style - Centers on the element of Earth

A Class:
Light Style - Centers on the Primary element of Light
Darkness Style - Centers on the Primary element of Darkness
Manipulation - Telekinesis and Telepathy
Aura Reading - Ability to read the mood, intentions, and goodness of a person based on aura

S Class:
Twilight Style - Formed by mixing the elements of Light and Darkness. Forbidden to all A, B, and C Class Magi due to its extreme power and near inability to control without having trained from the age of 3. Twilight itself is divided into its own subsections of C, B, A, and S.
Revival Magick - Used in only one form, the "Breath of Life", to bring back the dead or unconcious
Lightning Style - Classified as S due to its level of power, not to mention Lightning is weak against no element

It's said he can peer into the future.

(Sounding interesting, is it possible to be a normal human without magick or anything? Just a quick question, I know this defeats the purpose of the magick stuff but I was just wondering.)

**Avankiri** · 05-24-2008, 03:29 AM

(That's the purpose of the "Type" line. You can either be normal human or a Magi. It's really your choice.)

(Oh, I didn't know that being a human would disable you from using magick. Just thought you were weaker or something, thanks for the clarification bro.)

Bio: As a young kid, from the age of 5-13 he was trained by his father to be strong and continues to this day to train himself. He always practiced with heavy swords never wanting to be weak to others.

He knows of the magi and wants to protect them even though he doesn't have their kind of power.
He isn't looking for anything from anyone. He just wants to protect everyone in need.

At this time he is waiting for a job to pop up or waiting till something happens while in his own home village near where the magi's live.

(Trying to fit best with the story...if need be I'll cut or edit anything if you disagree with anything.)

(Well, some humans are advanced with genetic engineering, so that their bodies are naturally resistant to magic.)

It was a cold morning. Avan sa quietly outside his room on his personal veranda in the barracks. His thoughts turned yet again to her. That woman who saved his life and allowed him to be placed in the Queen's Guard to begin with. The woman whose name all people knew, but none were allowed to speak in vain of.

Avan sighed and scratched the sleep from his eyes before marching downstairs and mounting his horse. For almost an hour, he rode around the neighboring villages. When he found someone in need of food, he used alchemy to create a loaf of bread or a large sandwhich from anything he could get his hands on. If they needed money, he merely gave them money from his own wallet. The man seemed to have no limit to his kindness.

**Ghos7Soldier** · 05-24-2008, 04:05 AM

He started towards the door to go outside, he grabbed a small cloak to wear along with his usual outfit to hide the large sword on his back on his way to the door. Ferrian covered his body with the large cloak at the sword except for the hilt part. He himself was pretty tall just enough for the sword so he figured he wouldn't scare anyone.

He opened the door and stepped outside to see what was going on. Wondering around he noticed everyone wasn't paying attention to him so that's a good sign. He is known for helping but not a whole lot of people know of him carrying a sword which is why he carries the large cloak. He is a wanderer so people don't wonder about him.

He stopped to see what seemed to be a high ranking guard helping someone out. Ferrian didn't talk loud or anything but he said to himself, "Heh, good to see generous people these days." He barely knew of the man. All he knows is that his a high ranking guard for the queen or something of that nature. He isn't all too keen on the hole background of the army or anything.

He isn't a huge fan of warfare but he knows what must be done has to be done. He nods in the mans direction, even if he didn't notice, and walked on towards the store.

(Whooo..It's been awhile since I roleplayed. O_o)

**Day Late** · 05-24-2008, 04:07 AM

||I'm going to create a character sometime soon.. Hopefully in the next coupla' hours :3 ||

**Avankiri** · 05-24-2008, 04:23 AM

(Well, make one when you wish. It's fun with more people.)

Avan turned an eye, sensing someone waving, and looked just in time to see a tall, well built person enter a store. He appeared to be carrying something large on his back, but Avan made no move to stop the man. Instead, he walked into the nearby tavern and began talking with the local drunks. This is where most of his wisdom came from; his ability to get good information out of the intoxicated. Sadly, nothing was of use to him today, so he bowed his head to the men, kissed the hands of the ladies, and walked away, heading back home. The castle loomed over him as he approached.

Avan smiled softly and leapt off his horse. "Go, Fenrir, to the stables. One such as you, who bears your master early, should get the chance to sleep late."

It was then that he saw one of his soldiers. "Sir, Her Majesty requests your presence."

Avan gave a light grin and turned away, walking into the castle itself, then the throne room.

**Ghos7Soldier** · 05-24-2008, 04:31 AM

He entered swiftly and bowed towards the gentle people.
"Hello, just checking in. Anyone need any help?"
After a few conversations back and forth with old friends and the keepers of the place. They had no job for him to do. He sighed and walked out waving bye.
He looked around outside and decided to go train in the forest nearby.

He walked across the village towards the forest heading towards the waterfall area. Very few people go which is where he goes. After walking a bit he finally reaches his desination and throws his cloak off onto a low branch.
Ghost slings his sword off his back with one hand towards the ground infront of him only to stop a few inches from hitting the ground. "Damn, I'm getting lazy again."
He starts to practice som offensive and defensive stances.

(My character resembles my avatar except a normal arm)

Takashi was sitting in a tree watching ghost. "Hmm he has lots of potential. who is he?" "Hello" Takashi said. "mind if I join you?"

**Avankiri** · 05-24-2008, 04:51 AM

(Hybrid not possible. Though, there are some humans who learn the ways of the Magi. They're called Scions. But none can reach Class S. Those who do are obliterated from the inside by the sheer power they try to contain.)

**Ghos7Soldier** · 05-24-2008, 04:58 AM

Ghost was in mid swing when he stopped. "Depends, are you going to try and harm me?" He is cautious of new people he doesn't know. Especially people he can't see.

He could sense a presence but any human could be mistaken with this presence to be a deer or animal. His senses have gotten stronger though.

Ghost holds the sword at a downward angle and lets his left hand let go of the sword. He has enough strength to swing and carry the sword in one hand, but he loses a decent amount of control. When in both hands, he can swiftly move with the heavy sword while making good swings.

He looks around but isn't really all intent on searching really. All he knows is that someone is around him.

"If you want to join practice with me then all is well, but be weary, I don't take kindly to those who take pleasure in causing others pain for just the sight of it. No offense if you aren't here to shed blood."

**blizzarddog5** · 05-24-2008, 05:04 AM

Takashi Jumped out of his tree. "theres no point in bloodshed if it is not needed my friend. I just want to simply test your strength as well as my own. I fear i have gotten a bit rusty" he said as he unsheathed his blades.

**Ghos7Soldier** · 05-24-2008, 05:09 AM

He didn't exactly like practicing with others, only the fear of hurting someone friendly is what gets him.

He sighs, "Alright then."

He stands up straight and throws his right hand up so the sword goes behind his head. He moves his body so his left side is towards the person ahead. Ghost's Left arm dangles as he tilted his body forward a bit as so his left arm/hand is basically dead looking suspended on his body.

"When you're ready."

**blizzarddog5** · 05-24-2008, 05:11 AM

Cloud lets one sword touch the ground then holds the other horizontally across is body. Then quickly taking of in a quick dash. Striking first with the horizontal blade then with the blade from the bottom.
