Characters

Here you can find key characters as they are encountered throughout the Realms of Nas. This list will be supplemented pending the introduction of each character. All information given is what is provided/assumed at their introduction (meaning that it could be completely untrue if the character is, for example, lying) and is subject to modification as stories in Nas progress.





Name: King Arturius Tiberius III, Lord Sovereign of Eltar
Sex: Male
Race: Human
Age: 52

Appearance:


Class: Knight (Armored Melee Fighter)

Bio:
The third Lord Sovereign of Eltar to claim the name of Arturius Tiberius, he is the latest of a long and noble bloodline that has ruled the continent of Eltar for centuries. It is he who was responsible for summoning the Dragon Slayers to Eltar, requesting them by emissaries across the whole of Nas to come to the Capital of Eltar, Sormithiar, for an audience with his Highness himself. ]]> The History Doc http://dhaven.org/showthread.php?t=5734 The Chronicles of Nas; Legend of the Dragon Slayers http://dhaven.org/showthread.php?t=5733&goto=newpost Fri, 03 Sep 2010 00:36:10 GMT

His eyes narrowed as he watched the winged serpent before him intently, his grip upon his sword unconsciously tightening as the obsidian-scaled dragon stalked forward menacingly, thick columns of smoke billowing forth from its flared nostrils before ascending to the grey heavens above. The sun had been drowned within a sea of smoke, the fires which raged upon the battlefield consuming all that lay within their wake. The wyrm advanced, its wings spread wide apart in challenge as it raised itself up onto its hind legs. Its neck coiled back, a deep and ominous growl resounding forth from within the serpent's chest as churning flame seeped forth from between its fangs.

SFX: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHALm2eaPsI

A maelstrom of raging fire rolled forth from the dragon's gaping maw, the searing heat blasting across the charred earth and incinerating all that stood before it. The knight had barely enough time to dodge the attack, diving to the right and rolling onto his feet as the burning barrage tore past him. Without hesitation the warrior charged, his blade held at the ready with both hands as he sprinted across the battlefield.

His bestial foe roared with fury as its prey lept aside, its eyes glowing an ominous crimson as it turned its head to redirect the flames that spewed forth from its gaping maw, its intent to reduce its would-be slayer to ash made evident as it continued to unleash its wrath upon its enemy. The fires nipped at the knight's heels as he ran, ducking beneath another blast. The ground shook beneath him, forcing his steps to falter as he continued to move, his speed reduced as he struggled to maintain balance.

The dragon saw this and made to press advantage, now standing upon all fours and lunging for the warrior that stumbled before it. With a vicious roar it spun about, whipping its massive tail at the knight in an attempt to crush him with one blow.

SFX: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zhJljblPcY

With a sharp shout of surprise the swordsman lurched sideways, rolling beneath the swinging tail and struggling to not be blown away by the awe-inspiring torrent of wind that followed the attack, raising his shield to block the blast as it collided with his frame. He grunted in pain as he was forced upon his back, the air knocked out of his lungs as he gasped upon the ground.

The colossal serpent wasted no time, quickly advancing upon its fallen opponent to deliver the finishing blow. Without hesitation it raised its left-forward claw, snarling in disgust before slamming the extremity down where the knight lay. It snorted as the earth broke beneath its strike, a thick cloud of dust and debris kicked up all about its gargantuan frame. Just as the dragon was about to turn, however, both its eyes and maw were forced wide open.

SFX: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKJp_...eature=related

The lord of the sky howled in pain as the knight's blade impaled it through the wrist, blood spewing forth wildly from the wound in all directions. The warrior held fast to his blade even as the great serpent raised its still-bleeding claw, flinging it about in a maddened frenzy in an attempt to shake the warrior loose. It snarled when its efforts were not met with success, the slayer that it had desired to toss away instead drawing forth an additional sword and allowing his shield to fall upon the ground below.

Into the dragon's flesh he thrust the second blade, though higher than the other. Again the reptilian beast seethed in its fury, its wings now fully extended and batting downwards with urgency.

SFX: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKJp_...eature=related

With a feral screech the winged serpent ascended into the sky, the slayer upon its arm holding onto his weapons for dear life as it twirled about upon the air, lashing out viciously in all directions while snapping at the warrior with its fangs. The knight narrowly managed to maneuver himself about the dragon's attempts to devour him, pulling his first sword free before thrusting it home once again higher up upon the dragon's arm. It was slow work, but the swordsman gradually continued the process, climbing higher and higher upon its reptilian foe until the beast finally knocked him loose, ramming him with its forehead and forcing him into the air. He reached out purely on instinct, clawing in desperation as he began to fall and managing to just barely catch hold of the serpent's wing.

SFX: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHALm2eaPsI

The dragon roared in rage once again as the warrior sank a concealed dagger into its wing, tearing away at the thin flesh that resided there and causing the airborne colossus to lurch sideways in the sky. A torrent of flame rolled forth in all directions as they plummeted downward in a great whirlwind of fire, careening towards the ground below with deadly speed. With a shout the knight pushed himself from the beast while tearing his knife free, allowing the serpent to fall ahead of him as they spiraled down towards their doom.

With a roar of raw and primal fury the dragon spread its crippled wings to slow its descent, its fangs and claws viciously barred as it looked up at its incoming opponent with a gaze of pure malice and contempt. Its maw spread wide open, fire continuing to roll forth as the knight above shot down like a missile, his armor-clad form rocketing through the flames. With a great battle cry he raised his dagger overhead with both hands before striking down hard, impaling the beast below through the mouth as a maelstrom of flame continued to billow forth, the dragon's roar the last thing that he heard before the two became engulfed within a hellish explosion that shook the heavens themselves.

That's right ladies and gents, it's back and bigger and badder than ever. A whole new world, a whole new story, and a whole new set of possibilities. The central plot will come to fruition soon enough, but for now just focus on getting started.

Here is where anyone interested in this RP can post their characters and any details regarding them. I'll provide a sample template of a character sheet for RPers to use should they choose to do so, but please don't feel restricted to this form! Plan, imagine and create as you see fit! The sky's the limit, literally.

The only stipulation I place upon you is this:

Your character is a dragon slayer, a quickly dying profession in the world of Nas (for info on Nas check out the World Creation Forum here: http://www.dhaven.org/forumdisplay.php?f=271). The great serpents of the sky have increased in numbers throughout the course of the last century, and as such their attacks upon the denizens of every realm have increased in ferocity and occurrence. You have been summoned to the proud, continental nation of Eltar, to the great capital city of Sormithiar by the behest of King Arturius Tiberius III himself, Lord Sovereign of Eltar. Your skills are about to be put to use and your name about to be put into history!

Note: I am currently not planning on creating a character for myself and will instead be acting as "Dungeon Master", controlling NPCs, certain events, and other such things to progress the story and make it more enjoyable for the RPer.

There is a door that has never been opened. It is a silver door with a misty glow sealed with seven seals, each seal with a different color and word. The door has been there since before history; it only seemed appropriate, therefore, that the Time Police HQ was built around this phenomenon.



Orhan was fresh from the academy. He was on a job, his second; this job was to catch a thief who stole artifacts of great value from many worlds’ history and to return them to their appropriate times without raising suspicion. His combat suit was equipped with camouflage as well as thermo rendering which allowed him to walk in sub-zero and near hellfire temperatures. It was also equipped with motion and sound detection and also a time scanner. The suit could repel most lazer discharges. Orhan was allowed a low ranking laz-pistol and a laz-blade.



He looked out into the world before him for the first time. This world was called Nifere, a lush planet that worked with magic more than science, helped on by laylines flowing throughout the undergrowth of the planet. ]]> Die Hard Zyta http://dhaven.org/showthread.php?t=5727 You know you saw this coming. http://dhaven.org/showthread.php?t=5726&goto=newpost Tue, 31 Aug 2010 16:51:22 GMT No pun intended (http://blogs.sfweekly.com/shookdown/2010/08/mojowijo_wii_vibrator.php) Yes, this is real, it has happened.

I love looking at completely rational people (teachers, parents, cops, beloved ones, monks) spouting such nonsense that we can’t help but turn our heads and do a double take; some of us may try to set their minds right, but where is the proof that they are wrong and you are right? Where is the proof that you’re both wrong, or you’re both right?

By some twisted Law of the Universe, I believe in everything that cannot be proven with solid fact. I believe in God AND the Big Bang theory, in evolution and creation; I’m some kind of walking paradox! It is impossible to proof one way or another which is true, thus I believe both sides of every coin that can’t be proven. But do not get confused with worship. For me the existance of God is not something you believe in or you don’t, for me it is He is there and if you will prostate yourself in front of him or not. I do not and will not, ever.

Something that you can proof with solid fact is that 1 + 1 = 2. There are literaly an infinite WRONG answers, and only one true RIGHT answer. It is undeniable. It is the stuff that we, as humans, logical living and breathing creatures capable of thought spot from our mouth about God, about Science, about the ghost from the broken mansion three doors down that somehow puts my teeth on ice. I love it, this talk about the “Truth about Life.”

I want you to pause now and think about some outrageous things in your everyday life that people believe in. I do not care what it is right now. Just think. It could be about ghosts, the Locke Ness Monster, Heaven and Hell, God, Evolution, Science, or if humans can produce energy blasts as in anime.

Now that you have got a few ideas swirling inside of that brain of yours, hopefully they are colliding and spewing forth new, random ideas about the wold in which we live. Now I want you to seriously think about why you find those things outrageous and downright stupid.

Seven hundred years ago science was blasphemy. Religion was your bff, it was your homedog, it was your one way ticket to a better live and if you cast aside religion you were stoned to death and made to suffer in the pits of hell. Scary! Whooooo! (Yes, I am being sarcastic here) In the twenty-first century it is the opposite, we rely more on our own power than in God, because we are rational and they are irrational, but based on what? Science? Believing in science now as people back seven hundred years ago believed in religion is downright stupid to me.

Don’t get me wrong, there are billions of people who still believe in religion, I salute them. They have the guts (or cowardice as I may sometimes think) to believe in some astronomical force in the universe and not in the power of a vast and newly powerful religion called science. The only difference being worshiping the power of a god versus worshiping (each in our own way) the power of fellow humans. Human power!

But I don’t want this to be wholly a religious conversation because let’s face it, there are some real crackpot ideas in the world today. I mean, emotions, what the hell is up with that? Who decided to invent emotions without my permission, and the most crackpot of them all, love. If religions are the number one cause or war, than love is the number two.

When you think about love, what normally hits you? Shakespeare, right? Romeo and Juliet anyone? A story just oozing with love, thus random emotion that makes life a roller-coaster for our dear protagonist. The story starts out with dear Romeo heartbroken but then he sees and falls for Juliet across from him and in instantly head over hells for her. And in a matter of a few days instigates (not really since their families loved to hate each other) another feud between his family and hers, fucks her, runs away, and then dies at her side, all for the sake of love. Where is the rationality?

My favorite scene in Hamlet involves Hamlet thrusting his beloved against the way and silently stares her in the face. His stare is stone hard and it is impossible to guess what he is thinking, or feeling for that matter. He is seeking some sign that she still loves him, and finding none (wrongly) sets out to do what he believes that he must, as the famous quote says. “To be or not to be,” is driven by that love he burns for her.

The story of the Trojan War as known in The Illiad is a story of such strong love that a father feels for his daughter that even the gods are thrust into the battle. Apollo rains down volleys of thunderous arrows upon the ruler of Troy for stealing the daughter of the priest, but the ruler has completely and absolutely fallen in love with the fair woman, captivated by her beauty, which is said to be the fairest and loveliest in the history of the world. Naturally, as any right minded and healthy young man would feel, he does not give her up and there is war. Achilles loves war and is only eclipsed by his hatred. The epic begins with the lines of :

Quote:
The wrath do thou sing, O goddess, of Peleus'son, Achilles, that baneful wrath which brought countless woes upon the Achaeans, and sent forth to Hades many valiant souls of warriors, and made themselves to be a spoil for dogs and all manner of birds; and thus the will of Zeus was being brought to fulfilment; O sing thou thereof from the time when at the first there parted in strife Atreus' son, king of men, and goodly Achilles.

Who then of the gods was it that brought these two together to contend? The son of Leto and Zeus; for he in wrath against the king roused throughout the host an evil pestilence, and the folk were perishing, for that upon the man Chryses, his priest, had the son of Atreus wrought dishonour. For he had come to the swift ships of the Achaeans to free his daughter, and he bore with him ransom past counting; and in his hands he held the fillets of Apollo, that smiteth afar, on a staff of gold, and he made prayer to all the Achaeans, but most of all to the two sons of Atreus, the marshallers of the host: "Ye sons of Atreus, and ye other well-greaved Achaeans, to you may the gods who havehomes upon Olympus grant that ye sack the city of Priam, and return safe to your homes; but my dear child do ye set free for me, and accept the ransom out of awe for the son of Zeus, Apollo, that smiteth afar."

The Levels indicated are for Rated Battles Only

Name: Sanskrit
Gender: Male
Age: 318
Race: Half-Devil Half-Dragon

Appearance: Normal Form: Sanskrit ha a head of silver, glistening hair that shines a dull, pale blue because of his electrical power coursing through his body. His skin is rough as sharkskin, like scales, and, like scales, there are ripples along his skin like the surface of water, but layered like roof tiles for armored protection. His body is neither lanky nor if it layered down with needless muscle; Sanskrit is a perfect blend of sinew muscles and flexibility, he does not look like a bodybuilder, he resembles more like the physical fitness of Bruce Lee.

His arms are longer than most his size, but not by much. They, too, are layered with the same skin and muscle pattern as the rest of his body. Extending from the end of his bottom is a lanky tail powered with muscle and tendon, it has a force lash crack with resounding power like a nine-tailed whip that can shatter, if Sanskrit put his whole attention behind it, concrete and leave a fine paper cut line through metal. His legs are the same as his arms, but instead of longer they are shorter than most his size.

Both of his hands and feet have sharp lion-like claws for nails that are retractable, meaning that the claws can fall back under Sanskrit’s skin at will and can be sprung out like a cat’s claws. Sanskrit’s talons are no bigger than a full grown man’s fingers.

Sanskrit wears a thin layer of metal encasing his body from foot to neck, rushing along both arms. The thin layer of metal provides the minimum protection, but will not last long against blades weapons and weapons like hammers can shatter and/or heavily dent the armor. The armor has a more important task than providing protection for its master, for which he doesn’t need it because of his own body armor in his scaly hide. The metallic armor keeps Sanskrit’s electrical power around his body and prevents it from escaping too far from Sanskrit which may cause unneeded damage to the surrounding environment.

http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs24/f/20...l_grimlock.jpg

Weapon:
http://th05.deviantart.net/fs11/300W..._CoolBlueX.jpg

Sanskrit uses a spear to fight with in his normal form. The spear has many aspects to it that, upon first noticing it, no one would realize. First the spear acts like any spear, it can block, it can attack, reflect and rebound attacks, counter; Sanskrit uses its range effectively and, as with all pole-arm weapons, once you pass its length and get in close, its range means nothing.

Secondly, Sanskrit’s spear is able to amplify Sanskrit’s electrical power by coursing his energy into it and blasting powerful attacks from the spear’s end (blade). This weapon is the only weapon that can aid Sanskrit’s power.

Thirdly, the spear eats electrical power that is not its masters from any and all sources including, but not limited to:
  • Lightning
  • Electrical surges of power through circuits, such as the wiring for light in a building or the molecules in the air when two or more electrons get into a fight, producing lightning.
  • The electric pulse from a beating heart. Sanskrit can cut through a person’s chest with his spear and stop their heart from beating again by having his spear merely touch their heart, which in turn allows the spear to eat the electric energy.

Fourth, when Sanskrit is injured in a fight, the spear can channel the energy that it has eaten from outside sources to heal Sanskrit. This does not replenish lost energy, which can only be gained by resting. It heals wounds, gashes, lost limbs (if there is enough energy).

Fifth, the spear cannot be used by anyone except Sanskrit. If anyone else touches it, the spear will send a powerful wave of electricity directly into the wielder’s body and straight to the heart and brain, causing severe trauma to the brain and impeding the heart, if not fatally killing them on the spot.

Sixth, the spear is crucial for Sanskrit to transform into his true form. The spear is truly an extension of Sanskrit’s dragon body. To transform, Sanskrit must allow the spear to mold with his normal body to become the dragon.

Abilities: Sanskrit can only use abilities while in his normal form. Though his dragon self is power and can spout electricity on a far higher level than Sanskrit’s normal form, it cannot mold it into another shape or transfuse it like Sanskrit’s normal self can. There’s just too much raw energy there.

Level 2 - Lightning Call can only be used outside, in the open. Sanskrit uses energy to force molecules in the sky to fight and make lightning. With the lightning he can strike any location that he can see, within reason, to the dot. The lightning moves at the speed of light, but can be avoided easily since particles, visible to any human, are seen before the lightning strikes. The lightning cannot part from its pre-ordained path, to counter this. Sanskrit can call up to three, no more, lightning strikes consecutively, all three of the strikes hitting before a second’s count is up. The lightning three as I call them has a limited range radius from the first to the last; the second and third lightning strike can just strike a point a few arm lengths away from the previous one.

Level 4 - Lightning Surge is when Sanskrit uses his energy to shoot lightning from his body, usually his finger. This uses his own energy and is costly, but effective. No less damaging than the lightning three; Lightning Surge follows a horizontal path whereas the lightning three are vertical attacks. One can only be used at a time, but the lightning surge attack can, if it hits a target, break into weaker versions of itself and strike multiple enemies, each time weakening for a new target.

Level 6 - Lightning Diamond is when Sanskrit encases his entire body in his electrical energy by releasing it in beats, pauses, following a pre-ordained circuit, a network deep within his body that, if damaged, he’d be unable to perform this skill. The lightning around his body is incredibly lethal; it acts like a magnet for all metals, regardless of type. It pulls them in like a super magnet to Sanskrit’s core where the metal is then stuck, unable to move forward or back due to polar reverses in the magnetic pulses from the electricity. Sanskrit can only keep the Lightning Diamond up for a few seconds at a time, but has no limit as long as his circuit remains intact. Lightning Diamond can occasionally send out a burst of lightning like Lightning Surge, but this occurs at random and the power differs between usages.

Level 8 - Sand Sword can only be used when there is a fine grain like sand around, but it can be made up from other items and is when Sanskrit pulsates his energy into the air and forces the sand, or other item, into a tangible shape. The Sand Sword is not so much a sword as it is a saw, it sears and rips, it attacks like, well, a saw. If the enemy dodges, the Sand Sword shape can be manipulated to other forms like a whip if need be.

Level 10 - Railgun Sanskrit grabs any sized metal, but he prefers smaller bits and pieces of metal and shoots it eight times the speed of sound, plowing through anything and everything until it finally stops. This is Sanskrit’s strongest, most devastating attack.

Biography: I will not put his bio down until it becomes known in the Translucent Devil RP to keep him a mystery character for as long as possible.

Extra Info: Sanskrit is always releasing electrical ions into the air that reflect off objects and people and they, in turn, bounce back to Sanskrit. These are harmless and move fast. They act like a bat’s sonar when Sanskrit’s attention is divided elsewhere. It has two flaws: one, if you move faster than electricity or on par with it, you can escape, easily, Sanskrit’s radar. Second; if you are motionless, Sanskrit can’t tell the difference between a living thing and a non-living thing.

The cityscape is a mosaic of labyrinthine waterways and great wooden structures, so gracefully constructed they seem a part of the surrounding environment.

The Hinimridian emphasis on natural harmony has led to its preeminence among Lyanhyrt's city-states in trades such as forestry, agriculture, carpentry, and leatherworking. Hinimrid is also home to the Wood Wailers, a militant band of polearm-wielding sentries charged with the protection of their homeland.

Outsiders are seldom allowed entry, thus information about Hinimrid is slight, at best.
