~Secrets~

Your character’s Secret must be something life threatening if other characters find out about it. Something like: alliances, powers, family etc.

Hey everyone, this Role Play is going to be run in a DnD fashion. Each person will build a character to have specific goals/secrets and schemes. I will work with each character to help interweave the plot and keep everyone involved and important. However you will be required to keep secrets about yours and others characters, if you tell others your secretes in or out of the RP you will ruin the fun of the surprise, and perhaps get characters killed.

I will do my best to allow you to build a character to your liking but I will need you guys to work with me a little so that everyone isn't trying to break into a dungeon to save their long lost lover.

~Calf Creek Inn~

The village of Calf Creek is the closest settlement to the Kingdom of Beaurgo that is not controlled by the Kingdom. It is with in a few hours ride/walk from the Kingdom's main entrance. Calf Creek village is known for its black market and less then law abiding citizens, Beaurgo allows it to exist as a place of trade for outside goods despite its outlaws. If you want to gain entrance to Beaugro legally or illegally Calf Creek is were you go.

-ARMY-

Character Name:
Frances William Ashmore (Ren)

Age:
25
Gender:
Male
Character Spot:
The Eldest Prince

Discretion of Character:
Standing at 6ft 2inches he often towers over his subjects, if his height wasn't enough to leave a lasting impression his flaming red hair will. Short on the sides and long on top, it disobeys his wishes by striking memorable poses similar to the way flame rushes upwards from kindling. It seems to flow in an ever shifting dance, as if it itself was somehow contacted to his very element. Light tan skin is decorated with flakes of brown freckles, these freckles form a raccoon like band under his eyes and over his nose. His golden brown eyes are decorated with glints of ruby red and orange shards, that seem to shin brightest when in the heat of battle. Often adorn in riding gear of jet black pants and long sleeve shirt with a dark green vest and black boots. He is streakily handsome and is considered one of Beaugro's most eligible bachelors.

History:
"Gingers"(red-haired individuals) are often teased about a lack of soul, and an ever lasting quest of stealing souls from others. It is very well possible that the teasing jokes of "gingers" all started from the soulless mentality and soul stealing habits of this very prince. Prince Frances who in the company of friends goes by the nick-name of Ren, has a reputation for stealing hearts as well as lives. A ruthless hunter, Ren has lay wast to entire shifter villages with out even the blink of an eye. Raised to be the next ruler of Beaugro he is well skilled in Archery, Swordsmanship and of course his element of choice, Fire. Ever since the sudden loss of his mother Ren has been strangely distant from his kingdom, choosing to keep to a small band of hand picked elite warriors, he seems to wonder the very limits of Beaugro's kingdom as if searching for something.


Character Name: Jharna Ashmore
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Character Spot: Eldest Princess of Beaugro
Image or discretion of Character: Only standing at 5ft 2inches and thin Jharna is extremely small. Pain skin with a cascade of snow white hair that almost touches the ground. Light blue eyes with sea foam blue flakes, that glitter in the sun.
History: Child of Aqua Sky and Joseph Ashmore, Jharna has a natural connection to the spirit world. Due to this she is unable to control water for anything other then healing. She has worked with her mother for years and homed in on this ability and is known to be a protégé of her time.
Jharna is extremely shy and soft spoken, in fact for years it was thought that she was mute. To this day she only talks to a select few and spends most of her time alone out of fear of strangers. She wears a long light blue dress and keeps her bangs tied back in a braid holding her hair out of her face. She has a small white rabbit foot that she keeps in her pocket, this item allows her to change into a little white rabbit. A from she spends much of her time in.
Element: Water
BirthMark: A stream of light blue color flows from her left shoulder to her hand. The color is just a little darker then her skin.

Reza Dara Razorwing
Age: 19
Character 2. Current Slave (NPC)
Reza is a tall lean male with tan skin and shoulder length black hair that he usually leaves hanging down to hide his feathers. His piercing golden brown eyes make most feel uncomfortable, almost like they are being integrated. Bat Falcons are not very large, but what he lacks in size he makes up for in attitude. He is no stranger to fights and dose not mind getting his hands dirty from time to time.

History: Falcons were once a proud tribe that ruled over and lead the bird Kingdom. All avian species where loyal to the Royal Falcon family who had a history of fair and honest laws and treaties. When the bird Kingdom first came under attach the Falcons gave up there freedom in exchange for no avian blood-shed. The deal lasted for some time and the wealthy or royal elementals begin to practice the sport of Falconry with the newly enslaved race. The sport is still maintained to this day and careful breeding of the Falcon lines insures the royal linage. As is custom the every Royal Elemental Family member is given a Royal Falcon on their 18th birthday. Ever since Reza was presented to Ren, the two have been inseparable. Wherever you see Ren, Reza can't be far away.

Changer flaw: When Reza is in his human forum he always has several long black feathers at the back of his head that he hides in his long black hair. These feathers are about 7 inches in length and if agitated will stand up giving his human forum a less then noble appearance.

-ARMY-
▹Character Name:: Shahar Diarmid Inouye
▹Age: 23 years
▹Gender: Female
▹Character Spot: Army | Third in Rank
▹Character Description: Standing at 6"2, Shahar is a rather intimidating figure. Lean and well muscled, her body strongly resembles that of an acrobat. With her slim waist and a still rather effeminate body, Shahar's strength is commonly underestimated. Opponents, however, would do well to remember that beneath her feminine grace lies well toned muscles and a fiery determination. She has copper blonde hair that cascades well beyond her shoulders and vibrant green eyes that appear to catch the light. More often than not her hair is pulled back in a taunt braid, coiled into a tight bun atop her head. Additionally, Shahar has rather soft facial features, however they are often accentuated by her pulled back hair. This works to make her all the more grim looking, and it's true to say Shahar rarely wears anything more than the most serious of expressions.

Shahar's most prominent and well known feature, however, would be her nails. Long, curved, and needle sharp, they have earned her a rather menacing reputation. Rumors concerning her rank, not all without truth, have spread throughout the kingdom and in most, have named her an assassin. From stating that she ends her prey with these unique claws, or has ripped them as trophies from the feline shifters she has hunted, no one truly knows the reason for the nails. In any case, they have earned her a deadly reputation, one she has done little to dissuade. Admittedly, her personality in particular does not warrant her much compassion. While a powerful and effective leader well accustomed to the responsibilities of such a high rank, her often emotionless demeanor does little to spark love from the kingdom's subjects. However, no one can deny that her intelligence and creativity make Shahar one of the best battle tacticians the army has access to. This combination, however, cause most to be repelled by her cool exterior and has resulted in a lack of close bonds. In general, Shahar is slow to trust and stands alone among the higher ranks. While at times lonely, Shahar makes up for this by throwing herself into her work, acting with utter devotion to whatever task lies at hand.

Shahar's wardrobe is primarily composed of close fitting, flexible clothing. Often made of tough material, with this clothing she always looks like she's prepared for a fight. As well, most of this material is black, or at least consists of various darker colors. This has only contributed to the rumors concerning her duties, so to speak, and her rather intimidating presence is often enough to spook those who first meet her. To only further this apprehension, Sharhar always keeps a dagger secured and sheathed on the outside of her upper right thigh. With a custom handle to match her grip, the double-sided 9" blade curves to resemble a claw shape. ( X ) Intricate silver wave markings adorn the blade itself, matching Shahar's element. A second matching blade can also be found at her left hip at times, though this is rarely true unless she has duties that involve leaving the castle. Always alert and quite adept at reading others, Shahar has been known to be quick to react. While this has saved lives in the past, it has also gotten her into trouble before, and is a trait she has been reprimanded for. Her diligence, however, continues to remain commendable.

▹History: In regards to her position within the army, Shahar had a rather humble beginning. Earning a position at the castle when she was 18, her earliest duties consisted of the most mundane of tasks. From cleaning the horse stables to fetching water for the soldiers, it certainly couldn't be considered a prestigious rank. It did, however, work to improve her strength and stamina. In her second year at the castle she became dedicated to joining the army, and soon afterward succeeded in becoming a soldier. In the years that followed, Shahar managed to climb through the ranks rather quickly.

Discovering she had a talent for wielding a dagger, it has since become her weapon of choice. Additionally, her superiors soon realized she had a rather surprising grasp of battle strategies. Having a particular talent for coming up with plans on the spot, it was no surprise when Shahar began to rise throughout the ranks. This combined with her unrelenting dedication to the tasks set to her earned her the title of third in command by her 22nd birthday. Now, nearly 2 years later, she has become a trusted and well known member of the army of Beaugro.

▹Element: Water
▹Birthmark: A deep navy blue tear-shaped marking adorns the inside of Shahar's left wrist. Tribal patterns flow through the shape, and the tip rests just barely on the base of her hand. ( X )
▹Eye Flake Colour: Shahar possesses vibrant green eyes that are flecked with dots of gleaming sea blue.

-Shifter-
▹Character Name: Elwin Erebus Elester
▹Age: 21 years
▹Gender: Male
▹Character Spot: Shifter | #1
▹Character Description: Standing at the rather average height of 5"5, Elwin is not one to stand out in a crowd. While well muscled and possessing a great deal of stamina, he is not prominently so, and as such is often looked over without a second glance. It is true to say that just by looking at him, seldom would one size him up to be a threat. However, while few would know it, he has become quite adept at wielding a sword over the years, making him a worthy opponent should he be challenged. His hair is jet black and falls on the slightly longer side, always seeming to maintain a slightly tousled look to it. His facial features have a softer look to them, and more often than not are graced by a playful smile, or a smirk of one kind or another. Additionally, Elwin's eyes are that of a deep, chestnut brown, and almost always appear to contain a certain gleam to them.

While in human form, a flowing black tail marks Elwin for the equine shifter he is. Not that he minds this, however. Despite being at the service of the King of Beaugro, Elwin is one who generally prefers his animal form over his human one. Having the ability to shift into a Friesian horse, Elwin also maintains many of characteristics of the breed. Having a slightly heavier build, he is a strong equine that manages to combine this strength with an essence of grace. Along with this, he is a determined and diligent worker by nature, and in fact has few qualms about carrying a rider. With this also comes a streak of competitiveness, and Elwin is more than willing to take up a challenge. Whether that be a race to the finish line, or a round of jousting, Elwin is more than willing to be there. Possessing a streak of mischievousness and a playful attitude, it is no doubt why many are drawn to him, whether in equine or human form. He often seems to radiate a sort of charisma that others simply glean in to. This, along with a gentle kindness, generally makes him one of the favourites in the royal stable.

At the odd time Elwin is in human form, his wardrobe consists of looser fitting, neutral coloured clothing. Comfortable and providing protection from the natural elements, he often looks like a nomadic traveller. The clothing itself is often gentle colours, such as greens and browns, and only works to make him blend in a crowd. A cloak often drapes over his back, flowing to the ground, in order to hide his rather noticeable equine tail. While rarely wearing any type of weapon, a long sword is his personal favourite, and if ever needed that is the weapon Elwin chooses. Although he is generally a playful and kind individual, as with everyone, there are occasional deviations from this attitude. Elwin can become rather serious should the situation demand it, and despite normally being a follower, can fall into the role of leader with ease. He can become rather snappy in these times, which has been known to irritate his comrades. Those are relatively rare occurrences, however, and most are far more likely to be subjected to his sarcastic sense of humour when journeying together.

▹History: A direct descendant of the royal Equine line, Elwin was born as the successor to the Equine Tribe. At the time, his tribe was one of the few that had eluded capture, yet all the same their numbers had dwindled away to the barest minimum. Being one of the more nomadic tribe had helped them avoid detection for many years, but as with everything, one can only run for so long. When Elwin was 11 years old, his tribe was finally found and captured by the royals of Beaugro, and he was enslaved to the royal family.

In the decade that followed, Elwin grew accustomed to his life. Having been captured at such a young age, he grew fond of several of the individuals there, including the Prince himself. Unlike many of his brethren, his time at the castle grew affection towards the people there, rather than the hatred that brewed in the hearts of many. Still, his loyalties turn toward his fellow shifters as well, and he feels great sympathy for others of his kind. Now, as time has progressed, Elwin has become a full-fledged member of the royal stable.

▹How you got to Calf Creek Inn: In most cases, Elwin's mobility is restricted to that of the castle grounds. However, on the odd occasion errands are required to be run, and seeing as Elwin is one of the few who can elude detection in Calf Creek Inn, various odd-jobs are periodically tasked to him.
▹Physical Changer: Elwin is a member of the Equine tribe, and possesses the ability to shift into a jet black Friesian stallion.
▹Changer flaw: While in human form, Elwin retains a thick, flowing equine tail.

-Shifter-
▹Character Name: Edna Agnes Genthner (NPC)
▹Age: 87 years
▹Gender: Female
▹Character Spot: NPC Shifter
▹Character Description: The oldest living member within the Feline tribe, and one of the last of the royal line, Edna is the elderly great-grandmother of both Anita and Rachel. Not much is known about her history, seeing as all those who knew her in her earlier days have since past on, but no one can deny Enda possesses a great range of knowledge. Few can believe this elder is still alive, having survived droughts, floods, disease, and various other natural disasters. However, with her age has also come deterioration of the mind. While most early memories remain vivid, her newer knowledge is rather... Misty, to say the least. This has led to large gaps in memory, and while she still does have her lucid moments, her behaviors can at times be seen as erratic. Even without this, though, Edna has always been known for her blunt, but honest, way of speaking, rarely keeping an opinion to herself.

Elderly and scrawny, with an almost constant tremble in her step, few would see even the least bit of danger in this women. However, not even age has managed to diminish her fiery temper and harsh tongue. Even a cane can inflict a surprising amount of damage, if an unlucky person should get too close. A shaggy coat covers Enda's body while in human form, a testament to her bob cat counter part. Her eyes have faded to a icy blue, and several teeth are missing in her smile. Despite all of this, Enda's surprisingly strong will to live has carried her through this far, and this determination has showed no signs of fading anytime soon.

▹Physical Changer: Enda has the ability to shift into a bob cat.
▹Changer flaw: While in human form, she keeps a her shaggy, feline coat.

----------

-Shifter-
▹Character Name: Elian Aldren (NPC)
▹Age: 26 years
▹Gender: Male
▹Character Spot: NPC Shifter
▹Character Description: An individual of fairly standard physique, Elian stands at approximately 5"4. With tousled brown hair that falls slightly to the longer side and a lean, although not particularly muscular, physique, he is, in many ways, an average individual. Perhaps it is for that reason that most overlook him- an ideal trait given his history. Always bearing a rather nervous air about him, few would expect much from this soft spoken fellow, and most have come to accept his relatively edgy demeanour to simply be a strong part of his personality. After all, he was born and raised a dedicated servant to queen and tribe; now, even a loyal advisor to the feline queen herself.

▹History: One of the many to be captured in his youth in the elemental raid, Elian was among the few allowed to survive to tell the tale; even if very little of that tale has in fact been revealed. While most assume his survival to be nothing more than an unexpected moment of luck, there was far more involved in the incident. Placed under the influence of a shifter band and threatened with his life, Elian reluctantly came to comply with the commands of the elementals. He was later allowed to return to his tribe in possession with his life, with the condition that henceforth he would be an informant for the elemental royals.

▹Physical Changer: Elian has the capability to shift into a cougar.
▹Changer flaw: While in his human form, Elian retains his beige, feline tail.

[Oriel]

Jack “Gale” Keystone
First Army Commander
Age / Gender: 23, Male

Appearance: Prefers to keep his stringy blond hair short and at least neat, if rarely combed and controlled. Compact and physically powerful, Gale has a fine kinesthetic sense of body language. He appears balanced and grounded even when faced with uncertainty. His few nervous habits rarely appear outside moments of extreme stress. Although shorter than many of the men in his new command, Gale can match any man for sheer tenacity, stubbornness, and fighting scars. The bridge of his nose is crooked in two places from old breaks, his palms are calloused from army training, and his hands and knuckles bear the lingering and jagged evidence of his familiarity with edged weapons. Popular Army legend has it that, when one of the Royal Equid shifters threw him from the saddle in a fit of temper, he got back on his feet and threw the horse. His fighting specialties include close-quarters combat, spears or pikes, and the use of his wind element. Gale’s current ability suggests that he is only now approaching his prime and will make a formidable soldier well into his thirties, provided he isn’t killed before then.

Personality: Gale is casual and relaxed in person and fiercely driven on the practice field. He’s the kind of man who can go from laughing with friends to defending his life in an instant. He has to be, or he would not have survived this long, nor been chosen as First. He thinks best while either moving or participating in hard physical labor and may pace in a controlled fashion or do some repetitive task like digging latrines – which tends to make him look a little strange to his subordinates when he’s hashing out a difficult problem. Although not as impulsive as his Fire Element prince, he’s been goaded on occasion into participating in activities that he later regretted. This ‘weakness’ has been disappearing as he continues to rise in rank and personal authority. What he once might have done in order to save his position he can now refuse to do because of his rank. Gale is fair to his immediate subordinates and takes care not to give arbitrary orders or condescend. He listens well, laughs easily, and tends to give someone his full attention while they are speaking.

Background: Gale is the middle child of Darius Keystone, who became First Army Commander at an even younger age than his son. As a boy Gale was practically raised in and around the palace with Prince Frances, though it was always clear to him that Ren was his social superior. Darius continues to be a trusted counselor to King Joseph and, as one of the most notable Wind Elementals of his generation, a mentor to many other promising army recruits. Keystone is an extensive family line with many disparate branches. Gale, himself, is one of eight children (he has four brothers and three sisters). His father occupies one residence in the city, proper, and has two other estates in the countryside. One is a sprawling formal manor and the other is a more rustic country house and working farm. Darius sometimes hosts groups of young Elementals and their instructors at retreats. It was during one such early practice that Gale began practicing dagger fighting. A young recruit took pity on the curious child and set him a few simple exercises. Although this opportunity likely set him on his career path in the long run, it only made the boy a nuisance to his parents. He cut up laundry, slashed garden plants, and was generally a pest until a horrified nursemaid took his knife away from him. Gale wasn’t let near an edged weapon again until he’d reached a more rational age.

He received early training in weapons from his older brothers and later joined the army for more formal experience. His position as a close friend of Ren and a frequent palace visitor also put him in a position for training as a bodyguard. Gale discovered that it was one thing to fight when you were only protecting yourself and quite another when you might need to defend someone else. Later on he was sent south for “seasoning” and additional practice in the field. He did one six month tour and was sent back several times over the next three or four years. Of late he has been more often in residence in town and close to hand. The bombings in the city make him nervous for the safety of the royal family, though Ren often laughs off his worries.

Gale has been sent into the field with the Prince on almost every occasion and there is little about his friend that is a mystery to him.

Element: Wind – most useful in combat, he tends to use wind as a shield and a way to speed his movements. His power tends to dissipate the farther he extends his reach. Though he can whip up dust storms and encourage larger movements of air masses, he can merely nudge them the way he wants them to go and is rarely successful. His results at range are mixed. Learning to control his element has also developed his reflexes to an uncanny degree. Gale is only truly deadly on the front line, daring enemy spears and laughing at arrows.
Birthmark: A brown triple-spiral at the point of his left collarbone.
Eye Flake Color: White gold. This has the effect, in bright light, of deepening the light blue of his eyes to fully saturated cobalt.

-Shifter-

Character Name: Anita Belle Genthner
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Character Spot: 5
Image or discretion of Character: Standing at 6 feet, Anita is tall and loves how tall she is. Her long, calm red hair falls halfway down her back and is naturally straight. She has long side bangs that sometimes covers her oval shaped face. Her vibrant green eyes stand out against her pale skin with freckles lining her cheek bones and nose. She has a petite nose that barely casts a shadow over her full yet calm lips. Her chin doesn't stick out much and almost sinks into her face. Leopard spots cover her entire back and arms. Her clothing style consists of anything comfortable. You will rarely ever see her showing her arms or back as she wants to hide her spots. Her body curves in a small hourglass shape. Her hips are fairly small but they aren't so small that she's flat. Her chest is the same way. Anita's muscle tone is very obvious. Her stomach is very toned, along with her arms and legs. She is by no means bulky but you can tell she has muscle.
Personality: Ever since she's changed, Anita has been a confident person who believes in herself with many situations. She is always open to ideas from others and is very caring to those in her tribe. She will risk her life for them in a heartbeat. They are the only family she has left. Determination drives her every move and she won't stop until it is completed. She is also very brave and adventurous. Sometimes her curiosity takes over and gets her into sticky situations. Anita is very intelligent and always thinks things through before she acts. She tends to hold grudges to people who have done lots of wrong to her. If you did something to agitate her once, it's not uncommon that she'll let it go. But if you prove to be a hateful person and she absolutely despises you, don't count on her ever giving you a second chance.
History: Growing up, Anita was all about pleasing people. She always tried to please everyone at once. At times, it was overwhelming and she tended to shut down. She always had to be the perfect daughter to her parents. She tried her hardest to fit into the feline tribe. At the age of 13, her tribe was raided and Anita and her parents were captured by the king of Beaugro. On their two week long journey to the kingdom, Anita and her parents were informed that they would be executed. Anita was devastated. She didn't want to die so young.she was able to get free and instantly ran. A guard saw her escape and she barely got out with her life. Her parents weren't so lucky. She returned to the feline tribe and broke down the second she saw her sister. With their parents gone, it was only her and her sister, Rachael left.
Since her parents were the leaders of the tribe, Anita was glad her sister was two years older than her. She was not ready to take over. She was never meant to rule. She always doubted herself and could barely make her own decisions, always relying on the direction of others. Another elder of the tribe took over leadership until Rachael came of age.
When Anita was 16 and days before Rachael was scheduled for her rise to power, Rachael died. Anita was devastated. First, she lost her parents, and then her sister. All her family had left her. With the tribe needing a leader, Anita was terrified. She never imagined herself leading an entire tribe. Not having a choice, Anita began preparing herself for the role. She was eventually set as the leader and her personality changed dramatically from a nervous young child, to a confident and determined woman.
How you got to Calf Creek Inn: Within the feline tribe, sickness and diseases were spreading like wildfires. Being the ruler of the tribe, Anita found it necessary she searched for a cure. She knew there had to be a cure inside the kingdom and was desperate to find something, so Anita ventured towards the kingdom. She came upon Calf Creek Inn and, knowing their reputation, decided to search for a cure there.
Physical Changer: Anita belongs to the feline tribe and can shift into a leopard.
Changer flaw: While in human form, Anita keeps her leopard spots all across her back and down her arms. She rarely wears short sleeves, hoping to hide them.

-ARMY-

Character Name: Raylynne (Ray) Lana Kelane
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Character Spot: Second in Command
Image or discretion of Character: Standing at 5'5'', Raylynne isn't very intimidating. Her slightly curvy body adds a little more feminine touch to her stature but broad shoulders and upper torso lessen that effect. Don't let her size fool you, packed with muscle, this woman is known to take down fully grown men in the blink of an eye. The definition is very visible in her body, allowing her to seem more than simply a short obstacle. She's large chested and has small hips that just barely allow her the title of curved.
Her Snow White hair falls just below her chest and cascades in delicate waves. With the the brightness of her hair, few realize how tanned this woman is. Ray has slightly slanted turquoise eyes that seem to glow against her hair. From in front of her right ear flows her birth mark. Originating from her ear, the swirls flow up to her right temple and all the way down to the edge of her chin. Her nose sticks out a little, allowing a fair sized shadow to fall upon her thick lips. Her square face comes to slightly rounded points on her chin and cheek bones, easily defining her features.
Personality: There isn't much to be said about Raylynne's personality. She isn't the most approachable person you could meet. Ray never shows emotions nor signs of pain. She is usually quiet and sticks to the background but is able to speak fluently if need be. Her sense of humour is mainly sarcasm. She rarely finds pleasant qualities in people and disgusts the very idea of spending time with anyone. It's either her way or the highway is her motto. She doesn't like it when people go against her word and prefers her ideas over others'. If someone else thinks of an idea when she can't, she's fine. Ray is very vicious in both attitude and battle. Her solution to every problem is a fight.
History: Growing up as an only child in Beaugro, Ray was set to high standards. Her father wanted a son to serve in the army while her mother wished for her daughter to help in the home. Although she couldn't please both in the end, Ray worked her hardest to try. She would observe the warriors as they trained, memorizing their stances and movements. Her parents did not know of that pass time and when she was at home, Ray would aid her mother in the home. She would clean and prepare meals for her family, hoping to please her mother.
At the age of 9, there was a knock on the door. They claimed to be the greatest trainers in all of Beaugro and insisted that Ray train under their guidance. Her parents, especially her father, were pleased to know that their daughter could one day serve the kingdom in the battlefield. Without a voice in the matter, Ray left with the strangers in hopes of a brighter future.
7 years later, when Raylynne turned 16, she returned to Beaugro on her own with much more knowledge in the art of war. Her parents rejoiced to have their daughter home once more. The next day, they took her into the palace to prove her worth to fight for the king. Her skills were incredible. No one expected a 16 year old girl to be able to take down two adult men within minutes. Pleased with what he saw, the king granted her a spot within the army.
A few months later, Ray's parents were murdered by trespassing shifters. She was devastated. No one wanted to loose their parents at such a young age. The nearest tribe was raided for their insolence and things went back to the way they were.
As the years went by, Raylynne worked her way up the ranks, becoming close to the royals. They were kind to her and treated her as their own after her parent's deaths. Eventually, all her hard work paid off and Ray was presented the spot of second in command.

NPC

Name: Emmanuel (Emmet) Richard Carlton
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Character Spot: NPC

Personality: In a few words, Emmanuel is very full of himself. He thinks he's the best around and since he is about to marry the queen, thinks he has the right to do whatever pleases him. He doesn't care much for others. As long as he's happy, everyone else must be happy. If he doesn't like you, he'll make it known that he doesn't. He's not afraid to speak his mind and believes everyone else is wrong while he's always right. He always takes the credit for things and tends to put others down. He is also a very big flirt and woo's girls all over the tribe. Aside from his love for himself, Emmet is a very good leader, easily able to take charge in troubling situations and ends up pulling the group through tough times. That is the reason he was chosen to be Anita's mate, but if Anita had a choice, she wouldn't have chosen him.

Description: Emmanuel has thick, pure black hair that is fairly short but still sticks up about two inches down the middle of his head. His eyes are a bright brown colour that seem to glow in the shade. Stubble lines his square jaw and chin. His face profile sticks out quite a bit and his face is a long rectangle shape. He is extremely muscular from all those years of trying to impress the ladies and is very toned. He stands at 6'5''.

History: Growing up, Emmanuel's family were friends with Anita's family. Emmet always wanted to play with the girls and tried his hardest to "fit in" with them. He did everything he could to get them to like him but his efforts were a failure. Instead of liking him, the girls were creeped out by his constant following. Emmet didn't have any siblings and his mother was one of the first to pass away due to the disease in his 22 year. He still has his father but rarely has anything to do with him. They never really connected and he never understood Emmet's ways.

Animal: Lion
Shifter Flaw: Emmanuel maintains his lion tail and black mane.

Description: Caroline has light brown hair that falls down to her chest. She usually has it pulled back into a braid though, rarely having it down. Her eyes are a light caramel colour that seem to stare right through you. Her face is an oval shape with a petite chin and a long nose.

History: A year after she was born, Caroline's parents passed away from a sickness and she was taken in by her aunt and uncle. She never knew her parents, but her aunt always told her magnificent stories about them.

Her living idol in her life was their queen, Anita. She saw the girl as an independent woman with no fears and no faults. Caroline wanted to be just like her when she grew up. She would always try to prove herself to the queen and constantly spent her time by the girl's side.

-ARMY-
Character Name:Kimberly Mariana Simons
Age: (Must be 17+) 17
Gender: female
Character Spot: Second in rank
Element: Earth
Birth Mark: On the back of her left hand, is a murky and unnatural looking green birth mark, in the splotchy shape of a leaf
Eye Flake Color: Green



History: (2-4 paragraphs about your life) Kim was born to two Earth Elementals, who did not want to be discovered by the king and wanted instead to live a peaceful life, possible in the forest where they were most comfortable with the vegetation around her. However, when she was five, a terrorist shifter gang murdered her parents, because they hated Elementals so much, however, unlike how some people/elementals think, they were not inhumane and left the girl at a doorstep of a poor orphanage. Her strange talents attracted attention though and the orphanage owner wisely handed the girl to the king, where he believed she would be more protected and fit in better.

Kim grew up in the palace, training with the princes and other guards. She loved fencing and going on adventures, especially hunting for shifters who she grew up to loath with all her heart. Walking in the forest was favourite thing to do, and she soon adopted a style and fitted in well. When she was fourteen she started training to become a guard and was made one when she was sixteen. Her rank grew at an alarming rate, possible because she had so close ties to the king. For the plain reason that he took her in and protected her, even if indirectly (it was really the servants who took care of her)

She doesn't take her position very seriously, though she doesn't show it, and although she loves the king she is not 'at his side' all the time, as stated before, she likes walking around in the forest, thinking. She has always done this in secrecy, though it is surprising some one hasn't found out, because she is rather careless. She occasionally hunts for the shifter tribes, but doesn't care too much, leaving it to the scouts.

-Shifter-
Character Name: Zane Dren Servaine
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Character Spot: Rebellion Leader
Image or discretion of Character:
(rough scaled bush viper)
Zane is very, very reptilian. While some shifters are blessed by being able to hide their animalian features, Zane is not. He has the mottled green skin of the viper. He is 6'4. He has no body hair. His eyes are strangely human, and blue in color.His mouth takes after more of the reptilian side and is a large slit in his face. Instead of your average human nose, he has two slits that form nostrils. He does not, however, have fangs in his human form. He also has a normal tongue in human form. Body weight-wise, he is of a slender, quick build. His limbs are long and they taper. He does have fingernails, though they are tinted black. Both his fingers and his toes are webbed. He also harbors a large scar that extends from his left collarbone to the base of his right hip. In snake form, the scar is on his belly, and therefore not very visible.

History: Zane was born to the harsh desert sands of a far away country. A small nomadic tribe of about twelve reptilian shifters was his home. They were called the Zari Ze tribe, and they worshiped "the ways of the sun". He had a mother and father, and even two siblings: Nara and Seth. His father was a Viper, his mother was a Sidewinder. Nara was a Sidewinder like her mother, and Seth was a Mojave Rattlesnake. His grandfather, Zor, who was also a Mojave Rattlesnake, was the elder of the tribe. Zane was heavily marked as a shifter from birth, but it did not affect his relationship with the tribe. Most of them supported heavy reptilian markers. He lived roaming the desert with his family until he was twelve years old.

The Zari Ze, who had very little experience with newcomers, came upon a body in the sand one day. At first they were hesitant to give attention to the figure in the sand, because he sported no reptilian markers and wore strange clothing. Zor, however, declared that they needed to tend to the person for it was not right in the ways of the sun to leave one to die with no knowledge to be passed on to kin. So they took the newcomer who had no markings of any animal, and tended to him under the shade of a date tree. When the stranger first awoke, he shouted in surprise. Not many had seen any of the Reptile tribe for eons, and to one who was unused to shifters, the tribe must have looked like monsters. A few words from Zor quieted the stranger, and he let himself be healed.

The strange newcomer, whose name was Mark, spent many suns with the Zari Ze, and revealed to the tribe many marvels. While Mark could not change his skin he could make marvels. He pulled water from the air to provide for the tribe, and would sometimes preform juggling tricks for Zane, Nara, Seth, and another hatchling in the tribe called Gareth. He told of a land where people with no ability to shift could control the different elements of the land. When Mark was fully recovered, he wished to return to his own people, so the tribe took him to the edge of the great dunes that border the desert. There was a feast that night in honor of the helpful Mark and offering were laid out for the desert sun to wish him a safe return to whatever distant lands he came from. Mark promised to return to the Zari Ze with his people in twenty suns, and help to create an oasis for the tribe.

Twenty suns had passed, and the tribe return to the edges of the sand with hopes of their friend Mark returning. Zane, who had slithered to the highest dune in order to spot their arrival, spotted a great mass of people on the horizon. With a triumphant shouted, he waved down at his tribe. They had come! He shifted into his viper and raced down the sands, a green streak across the white. By the time he got to his tribe, the strange people had arrived. There were so many! The newcomers were greeted with smiles from the Zari Ze, and their smiles were returned with hell.

Mark had been a member of the Elemental army. He had been sent out by his king to find pockets of shifters and eliminate them. While he had almost died in the desert, he was over-joyed to find such a rare race of shifters. When he returned to his commanders and told them of what he had found and how he had received an invitation back with others, the company had laughed at the stupidity of the tribe. Did they not know how things were? When they mounted their attack on the unwitting tribesmen, they decimated the Zari Ze. The Reptiles were fast, and killed many from the Army, they were destroyed. Zane earned a scar that day. As horror surrounded Zane, he somehow found Mark. Shifting into his snake form, Zane bit Mark and poured his venom through his fangs. Mark shook off the Green viper, and stepped on him. The pain slung Zane back into his human form. "Why?" Was all the boy could manage to gasp out. "Because you, and all your animal kind, are cursed and scorned. No better than slaves. You're people are too deadly, far too ugly, and too stupid to be under our command. Therefore by royal decree, you must all die." Mark took a knife from his belt, and sliced the boy open from collarbone to hip. Zane passed out, and Mark stumbled, fell, and died.

Zane awoke later curled around himself. He was a Viper again. Raising his head, he glanced out upon the desert confused. His black tongue flicked out to taste the air, and he tasted death. Remembering, he snapped back to human form and crashed on his knees in terrible pain. They were dead. All dead. He dragged himself to where his sister's broken body lay. He held her head and wept.

Twenty years later you find him hidden in the Kingdom of Beaugro, in a small lean-to he constructed in the forest behind the Calf Creek Village. He keeps hidden, which isn't too hard for a snake, because his human form is less than desirable in this kingdom. Hatred has formed in his heart. He had left the sands seeking vengeance, and what he found was more horror. Mark had been true in his final words. Shifters of all kinds were enslaved or hunted down and killed in this section of the globe, and it was spreading. He has taken drastic action against the government, and probably killed several innocents. It would have mattered to him once, and probably still does, but with the forces of the Elemental growing stronger and more secure, he believes desperate action must be taken. He has formed a band of compatriots, with Darth recruiting, to strike back against the kingdom. He has vowed to do whatever atrocities necessary to liberate the shifters from their cruel and unfair existence.

How you got to Calf Creek Inn:Zane met Darth a while ago, they formed a relationship and a plan on how destroy the kingdom, and picked this spot so that Darth can meet people in a secure location and report back to Zane. Zane is very little to never seen in public because of his obvious markings of shifter.
Physical Changer: Reptilian
Changer flaw: His skin stays with him, and he does shed on occasion even in human form. His jaw and mouth resemble his reptile side more than his human side, and it appears on his face as a lipless expanse of scaled skin. His jaw can dislocate even in human form. His nose is composed of the two reptilian slits in the face. His body shape also resembles the lean, long body of a viper. His body requires a regimen of sunlight as well, for he is a cold-blooded creature.
