• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Troubled Tribes [OOC/Signups]

The Story:
Three thousand moons had fallen since the peace between the five great tribes of the Lu'Mure Forest was broken. On the night of the assassination, the Sicarius moon was out, refusing to shine for the forest inhabitants. The Luin clan had always been wary of the other two clans, so they kept a guard posted every night. Their watch was unaware of the shining metal dagger flying through the air towards him, and died instantaneously as it cut his throat. His body lay there 'till morning, when the townspeople would discover him, and call for an immediate counter-attack. The trouble was that nobody could guess which clan had done it...

A small group of mercenaries have been called in to investigate the attack. They will travel to each clan's territory, and attempt to find the enemy, and eliminate them.

The Moons:
The great forest has 8 stages of moonlight instead of day and night, because the forest has no sun, only a moon. The first stage is called the Sicarius moon and it is the time when the forest is darkest. The fourth and fifth stages are the twin stages Vias and Nox where the moon is half full. The last stage is called the Praelis moon, when the forest is lightest, and the moon is full.

The Clans:
The five great clans of Lu'Mure are Luin, Seiv, Miok, Hyer, and Fiad. The Luin live in the northern part of the forest, where the moon is small, and light is dim, even during the Praelis moon, and are the main military force of the five clans. The Seiv, live to the far east of the Luin, and are a very detached and isolated people, though it is said they are excellent blacksmiths. The Miok live in the south-eastern part of the forest, and are mostly traders and travelers. The Hyer live in the north western part of the forest and are the experts on construction, as well as demolition. The Fiad live in the center of the forest, and are mainly musicians, poets, and other entertainers. They are also experts with herbs and spices, including poisons.

Sounds promising, I'll reserve.

Name: Xaxas
Originating Tribe: Luin
Speciality: Two blades and a bow as well as a dagger in his boot

Appearance: Sword (two), bow, and dagger.
Personality: A calm and cool individual with a cocky attitude, but is also extremely lazy, as he prefers to dump his work onto others. He enjoys to fight and is quite competitive to just about anyone and loves to free-run. He is a sarcastic person and is also quite the accomplished thief. Xaxas is a stoic boy nonetheless, and tends to see the 'bleaker' side of things. Xaxas relies on instinct rather then his intelligence when fight. But he is not exactly stupid. In fact, he is quite smart, but to lazy to put it into use.

Pet: Panther - Umbra
Pet Description: {Describe your pet, if yo have one.}

Extra Equipment: {What else are you carrying with you.}

Reserve, have my form in in a mo'.

Name: Wrenard Klips
Originating Tribe: Miok
Speciality: Small bladed weapons.

Appearance: Wrenard is of medium height, and not unthin. His eyes are glacier-colored and rather large. He has curled, dark blond hair and thick eyebrows. Most of Wren's body is covered by a large, long coat that looks rather like it was made from the skin of a snow leopard. He also wears a pair of boots.
Personality: {Can be PO, but make sure you're not shy and social at the same time.}

Pet: {Not needed, but optional, and can be anything from a worm to a wolf.}
Pet Description: Glib is a small-but-long, white-and-blue snake. His eye-ridges give him a sarcastic look, and his tongue is black. Glib isn't poisonous, but he can deliver a nasty bite anyway. He can usually be found wrapped around Wren's left arm.

Extra Equipment: {What else are you carrying with you.}

Name: Seil
Originating Tribe: Fiad
Speciality: Glaives

Appearance: Seil is a tall bulky man, covered in scars, with a grim look on his face. He wears a massive cloak lined with black bear fur and shoes made of buck skin. His sleeveless shirt is thin, and tight, and his pants are made of loose soft leather. On his back, he carries a massive glaive, which is a ring covered in blades, and can be thrown or used as a meele weapon, and many smaller glaives the size of his finger in a small side pouch attached to his pants. He also carries a case containing several vials full of medicine and poison, on the opposite side of the glaive pouch. Also, a dagger is strapped to his ankle, beneath his leather pants, and another is strapped around the belt on his back. His hair is a tangled black mop on top of his head, with streaks of silvery white standing out around the eyeline.
Personality: PO

Pet: Wolf - Aranaw
Pet Description: Aranaw is a large, greyish-silver wolf who stands at Seil's waist, with a face expression to match his. He appears vicious and angry most of the time, but is actually quite affectionate to those who are kind to him and Seil. He is extremely loyal, and will fight for or with his allies to the death. Like Seil, his body is a collection of scars, and his fangs are cracked and jagged, making him appear more dangerous than he is, and allowing him to intimidate the strongest of enemies.



NOTE: You can just add that last column, "Extra Equipment" to your appearance.
 
Well okay then.

Name: Bandos
Originating Tribe: Seiv
Speciality: Bare-handed fighting

Appearance: Bandos is a big man with threatening presence. While still having white skin colour, his skin colour is relatively dark. His hair is dark brown and goes down to his neck, and he tend to have a fringe going over his left eye, which he, coincidently, covers with an eye patch. His eye that you can actually see, thought, is coloured dark green.

He wears armour made of a dark grey metal, which consists of a part which protects the abdomen, but only covers the chest in fur, for keeping warmth. The left shoulder is covered by several layers of metal, which are also adorned by spikes. (most likely made of animal horns or bones) The armour then follows the entire left arm until the wrist. The right arm is left completely unprotected, only covered by fur for warmth.

Bandos also carries a big sack on his back, which there is a lot of useful tools in, ranging from axes for cutting trees to medicine and various herbs.

Personality: For someone his size, Bandos is a rather nice fellow, actually. Although in battle, he is a brute, who uses pure force rather the strategy to overpower his adversaries, but he doesn't come across as actually stupid. In fact, while not the smartest of the bunch, he's still a survival expert, and therefore a valuable ally.
The rest is PO.
 
Xaldin, your specialty is what you are BEST with, and you are not best with swords, bows, AND daggers. Put one kind of weapon please. Also, ORIGINALITY comes into play here. (THe free-running bit is reminiscent of the guy in your avi... >.>)

Male Gardevoir - Accepted.
 
I'm assuming this RPG hasn't been trashed?

Name: Craov
Originating Tribe: Hyer
Speciality: Hammers

Appearance: A short and burly man with deep green eyes. His curly black hair falls down to his eyes. He has a black bushy mustache and a small beard, which gives him the appearance of some happy-go-lucky, elderly, weak man. He has burly arms from working in construction for so long. He wears a forest-green cloak with a hood that covers his face. Under his cloak he wears a brown burlap shirt, and matching pants. The cloak is thick, protecting him from the cold. He wears rough black gloves. Around his waist he has a large steel hammer that he used to build his house. He has no other weapons on himself, besides his brute strength.

Personality: Even though his appearance makes him seem calm and harmless, he is a stone-hearted man, who only cares for himself and his tribe. He does have a soft spot concerning pain, so if he comes across anything that is painfully dying, he will end it's life quickly.

Pet: None
Pet Description: N/A

Extra Equipment: A flint, an unlit torch, and a rope (all in a burlap sack that he carries around at all times).
 
Heavy Lobster - Accepted. No this RP hasn't been trashed, it's just that not many people are interested.
