Sure you're right but I'm quite the idealist concerning stuff like that. Either people do it for the fun or they don't. Doing stuff for QPs is cheap imo. But I'm getting overboard here.

Setting - Fantasy

NOTE: It is based on the World of Magik which is described in my entry for the Forum RPG Contest

Name: Asheera Moonblood

Age: 269

Sex: Female

Race: Dark Elf

Profession: Assassin

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

Deity: Azuth, God of War

Motto: No matter how powerful one becomes, there is always someone stronger. That's why I'm in a constant pursuit of power, so I can be prepared when an enemy tries to take advantage of me.

Picture:


Description:
This woman's smooth pale-white skin identifies her as a dark elf. Her body is in perfect athletic shape, having enough agility to evade even the fastest and most dire of attacks. The outfit, and the two blades she wields are specific to the Blood Sisters, a group of elite dark elven assassins that are trained to strike swiftly and deadly, slaying the target before it has a chance to even realize the attack. Although considered evil by most races because of the others of their kin (the black elves), the dark elves will never betray a friend or hurt an innocent being, but they have the same lust for vengeance as the dreaded black elves.




Skills:

Expert Melee Fighting: Allows the Character to fight excellent in close combat.

Basic Ranged Shooting: Allows the Character to use ranged weapons, but only on a basic level.

Expert Stealth and Hiding: Allows the Character to hide from enemy sight and move in complete stealth, so that she can take the enemy by surprise.

Advanced Trap Handling: Allows the Character to detect, set and disarm any traps up to advanced level.

Expert Intimidating: Allows the Character to intimidate others and often get new information or other bonuses.


Abilities:

Hardiness vs Enchantments: As an Elf, the Character is more likely to resist mind-affecting spells.

Immunity to Sleep: As an Elf, the Character is immune to any type of sleep effects.

Keen Sense: As an Elf, the Character has keen senses and can detect traps even when not searching carefully for them. She also can hear and see better than a human.

Dark Vision: As a Dark Elf, the Character can see in the dark perfectly, but not in darkness created magically.

Ambidexterity: The Character has so high dexterity that she can manage to use two weapons at the same time without any kind of penalty to either of them. This works with small weapons only.

Epic Dodge: Having tremenduous agility, the Character is almost impossible to hit in a melee fight. Moreover, the Character can dodge most arrows as well.

Death Attack: Being an Assassin, this Character can paralyze or even kill her opponents with a death strike whenever she takes the enemy by surprise. Death strikes don't work on Undead, Constructs and any kind of creatures who have no weak spots and are immune to any kind of critical hits.

Improved Evasion: The Character has excellent reflexes and can evade most magical shots and explosions, including dreaded Dragon Breaths.

Uncanny Dodge: This Character cannot be caught off-guard, and any sneaky attacks are useless against her.

Blinding Speed: The Character can run so fast that she can even beat gravity and walk on walls all the way to the top, if the wall is not too big in height.

Acrobatics: The Character can perform special acrobatic moves when she is in clear falling, allowing her to always land on her feet without any kind of injury, if the falling distance is not too big.

Blind-Fight: The Character has so keen senses that she can fight well even if blinded or against invisible creatures.


Weaknesses:

Being so fast and agile, Asheera is unstoppable in a melee or ranged fight. However, the same can't be said about magic. Although she can evade most magical shots, fireballs and explosions, her weaknesses lie mainly in instant and mind-affecting spells.




Gear:

Asheera wears a very light and flexible outfit so as to preserve her extremely high level of agility.

Item Description:
This outfit is so light and flexible that it doesn't reduce the agility of the wearer at all, on the contrary, it provides great magical protections as well. Furthermore, the dark magic that it was imbued with grants the ability to conceal with the shadows and thus disappear even while being seen, provided the wearer has excellent hiding skills.




She wears two deadly and swift Assassin Blades as weapons.

Pictures:



Item Description:
The strange shape of this sharp edged blade allows it to penetrate most forms of protections and skins, while still striking extremely accurate. Even though it is not considered deadly by most people, when used properly by an Expert Assassin, it is said that it can bring death even to a giant in one strike.




She also has an Assassin Bow, which she uses in special cases where some ranged power is needed.

Picture:


Item Description:
Users of this bow are known to strike with such a precision that their targets get hit even at the presence of strong winds. However, being dark elven specific, the bow is brought to its full potential only in the hands of a skilled dark elf. Because of its characteristics, it is the favorite bow for Assassins.




Background:
note: it is a short story in which you'll find out Asheera's Background


The chosen adventurer of Kerongvar left Whitestone and started his adventure by investigating Darkblade, the greatest Dark Elven city in Antara. After he convinced the gate guards to let him in, he went to the Temple of Azuth, the God of War and deity of these Dark Elves. Inside he met a beautiful, yet intimidating Dark Elven Woman, whose commanding stance and confident smirk suggest that she knows all too well how gorgeous she is. The Adventurer, although somehow intimidated, manages to speak: "Hello, I am -". Asheera quickly interrupts him: "The chosen of Kerongvar, are you not?"

Adventurer: "N..no, that's not me."

Asheera: "You're either being modest or careful, but I don't think I'm mistaken. You have Tardius' symbol on your clothing, and I don't know of any other Human from Whitestone brave enough to come and meet me in person all by himself."

She bows curtly in introduction: "As you most probably know, I am Asheera Moonblood, the chosen of Nadia herself and one of the strongest fighters in Antara.

Now, what can I do for you?"

The Adventurer is somehow more relaxed now: "Well, first of all, I would like to know more about you and your past."

Asheera: "Very Well. Although normally I don't share my past experience with anyone so easily, I don't want to start some kind of conflict with the Humans of Whitestone.

I was born in a small and very cruel Dark Elven village, influenced by the Black Elven city nearby. The priests in that village were worshipping the same God as the Black Elves, Bane, and were sacrificing villagers often in his name. When I was a small kid, they wanted to teach me their dark ways, but I didn't want to do it at all. My parents were so shocked that they decided to sacrifice my body and soul to the God of Death himself. Fortunately for me, a group of Minotaur slaves managed to escape from their cage and the villagers had to stop them. This is what made my escape possible. If it weren't for those Minotaurs, I wouldn't be alive this day.

I was a child back then and alone in the woods with some patrols from my home village looking after me. I had to hide all day and night from their sight. Everything changed when I stumbled upon a group of Barbarians. These barbarians brought me to their settlement. At first I thought I was finally free from the solitary and dangerous life in the woods with some assassins on my back, but the barbarians weren't friendly with strangers, especially with other races. They considered me a slave and put me to hard work, even though I was just a little kid. They were constantly hurting slaves that didn't work, and I couldn't endure much physical pain as a child, so I had to work beyond any limits imaginable. After the end of a day, they placed me in a small cage with nothing in it at all: no beds and no blankets. All my childhood has been like this.

Many years have passed, tribe leaders changed a lot of times, and when I was 102 years old, the chieftain was slain by a furious and powerful barbarian that challenged him to a fight, and became the new chieftain of the tribe. His name was Kondo, and he was the most cruel chieftain I had experienced so far. He had a strong lust for my body, and he raped me multiple times. Consequently I got pregnant and after a year gave birth to my daughter, which I named Tianara. Kondo wasn't pleased at all about this, but he didn't want to kill me or my baby for some reason.

After Tianara grew up and became a child, Kondo took her away from me. In the next years, he poisoned her mind so much that she lost every symphaties towards me. When she became an adult, she was trained by Kondo himself to be his greatest guard. She treated me like an ordinary slave, with absolutely no remorse. I started to hate my daughter as well, and since that day I don't think I would mind seeing her dead."

Adventurer: "I'm sorry to hear all of this."

Asheera: "I am not the type of woman who needs pity and comfort, though I suppose I should appreciate your sincerity.

When I was 135 years old, a powerful clan of Orcs attacked the settlement of these barbarians. It is then when I managed to escape from my cage, and to put my hands on a sword which I used to kill Kondo himself from behind when he was busy trying to stop the Orcs. I just had to kill that bastard personally. Tianara watched me with fury in her eyes, like she loved that scum, which was actually her father, more than me. She didn't get the chance to finish me off, as the Orcs razed the entire settlement and we both had to flee.

I was once again on the run, but this time at least I had a sword with me and I wasn't a child anymore. Later, I spotted a group of Dark Elves from the great city of Darkblade, and decided to follow them to their magnificent Kingdom. When I arrived at the biggest Dark Elven city in Antara, I finally felt like I was home.

One thing that I was looking forward to was to learn how to fight, so that I would never be weak and abused again, and so I started training. Those Dark Elves' fighting schools were simply one of the best from this realm, and I trained there for 130 years. I gained so many powerful tactics that I consider myself an expert in martial arts. I am so experienced in the arts of fighting that I can probably slay a horde of Orcs all by myself. However, I may have serious problems fighting an army of experienced soldiers. Even so, very few are capable of defeating me in a 1 one 1 fight. Well, at least if magic is not involved, since magic can do some weird things. In fact, I was given the title of best fighter in Antara by Nadia herself, the powerful leader of my kin in the great city of Darkblade."

She pauses for a moment, and takes a deep breath: "As for Tianara, I haven't seen her since the invasion of the Orcs in that small settlement, but somehow I know she is alive somewhere, I can feel it. My first goal is to find my daughter... and I don't think she'll be a match for me anymore..."

Adventurer: "So you want to defeat her and then convince her that you forgived her so you two can reunite as a family?"

Asheera: "Convince her to join my cause? *laughs* No, boy, I want to find her to put an end to this miserable wretched creature."

The Adventurer, surprised: "How can you talk about your daughter like that? I thought you said her mind was 'poisoned' by that tribe leader, so it is not her fault that she became like this!"

Asheera: "Actually that's only part of the story. You see, Kondo gave her two options: to stay with her mother in the cage and be treated like a slave, or to become one of his best soldiers, and this includes beating the slaves regularly, even me. Obviously, she chose the second option, and as cruel as it may seem, she did treat her own mother like nothing more than a slave when I was in that cage."

Adventurer: "Please don't take this as offense, but I guess it's the nature of the Dark Elves, to be selfish, cruel and somewhat evil."

Asheera shakes her head: "Now, why do you think Dark Elves are evil, hmm? It's true that some of us are power hungry but that constitutes the minority. And those Dark Elves that are influenced by Black Elven culture, like my hometown villagers, are evil because of the negative influence. You may consider the Black Elves evil because they worship the God of Death, but most Dark Elves have the God of War as a deity, and although Azuth cannot be considered to have compassion and goodness, he is still far away from being a twisted, evil deity like Bane.

She pauses for a moment, probably thinking deeply about something: "To put it differently, what makes you, and the Elves, less evil than us, hmm? You have the same hatred towards our kin as we have towards yours. Although I wouldn't consider myself a do-gooder, because I have endured too much injustice and wrongings in my childhood, I'm still far away from being a cruel and heartless woman. I don't have any sympathy for those that hurt others and that want to bring suffering to this world, in fact I have an extremely high lust for vengeance upon them, and only if they have a very strong reason and are sorry for their wrongdoings would I forgive them. I may not help every beggar or unfortunate soul I see, but neither do I want to bring any suffering to them. Am I Selfish? Probably, to an extent. But cruel and evil, I don't think I am."

Adventurer: "I see..."

Asheera pauses, then smirks mischievously: "You know so much about me now, yet I know so little about you. Perhaps you can tell me more about yourself, hmm? Unless, of course, you have a problem with that."

Colours: Blue and white, as undead Purple and black. Back as Human again, Blue, silver and Tan
Setting: Fantasy

Background:: As noted earlier, Richard grew up in a little village. His father was the Duke of Carwen. His earliest memories was something about his parents was in constant search of some ritual scroll to bring back the dead, but he never understanded anything of that, especially when some living skeletons had been observed with the south coast of Mardinia, and then, his parents suddenly stopped searched it. Never mention that they ever searched it. He did not interest much in swordfight, unlike his brother who loved it, but rather wanted to study magic. There were a few magic school in the land. One named Gulgar's magic academy for sorcerers and special gifted ones. In the age of 12 really wanted to start there, he even had a invitation to start there, but his mother didn't allowed him to do that. It ended with that he fled into the school and was there to he was 21. He returned as the most powerful mage the douchy Carwen had seen in years.

His parents never forgave him, until one day the Ice people from the northen mountains tried to siege Hamlifin. They were under the command of Mad King Därnilůs. The ice people nearl managed to take the whole city. Därnilůs froze down the Human king so he couldn't escape, and was ready to torture him until the H-kings death, when Richard came in and a magic beam against the Ice king. The Ice man king was knocked uncousius and and Richard imprisoned him in the Käiser crystal. With fire magic he surprised the Ice people, and they fled back home. His parents had finally forgive him, but many people thought now that he was in the league with the demons. He got the protection of the king, but surely he wasen't safe anymore. He fled back to the Gulgar's school, but Gulnar sent him in the hands of the high counsil of Wizardry, becouse he was afraid that Richard would have decreased the popularity of the school even more. Gulnar learned the High counsil about Richards probably unknown ability, and he could b useful. Richard was accepted as an apprentice. Over 10 years he did minor and after time bigger quests. They learned him right and wrong judgement and much more.

Finally his final test was up to date and they told him about his special ability, time travel. He was sent back in time to stop the mage Kardenox to create necromancy. Unfortunely, he found Kardenoux already dead which meant that it ws something else that had created necromancy. He left back and told the news. he was entrusted with an army and his sister went with him (the only one he trusted enough to tell were he was). They went back to the Kardenoux hut were Richard remembered what happened before his siblings was born. That his parents was searching something. He added 2 and 2 and found out that it was necromancy his parents was interested in, but lost interest when they found out how uncontrolable those undead ones was. Suddenly his sister noticed that Kardenoux wasn't dead, but not living at all. Kardenoux roared and all the soldiers fled in fear.

He claimed that the first necromancer became all undeads king. Richard shot him with magical arrows and told him that he hadn't resseructed anyone and couldn't call himself a necromancer. Unfortanely when trying to destroy the necromancer scroll, Richard and his sister began to vanish. He had created a time paradox. His parents met becouse of their both interest in necromancy. The paradox was ereasing Richard and his sister, but the counsil recreated the scrolls and with the help of Richard, they stopped the time paradox, however, the curse of kardenoux turned Richard and his sister to Liches. Miraculuosly Richard memories stayed, but his sister lost hthem and resseructed Kardenoux, making her the necromancer queen. She was changed to a skeleton with sparkling bones and torquise eyes. Richard hided from her, but followed as she escaped to a great Island south of Mirdina. It was inhabited by lots of indians which began to worship her. She resseructed their dead at one cost, she gained control of them. After some time Richard stopped to hide. She couldn't possible remember every one she had revived. He had a name change to Melviser so no one should know who he was.

Back in his at the birth age of 35, the Skeleton queen summoned a eartquake and two great islands were sent to the south of the mainlands. The other island was the dwarf island. It was fullwars between every nation, elves and humans forged an alliance with the dwarves. Ispeople and Lizardmens decided the ally them. Only the demons had no ally. Well, the Orcs didn't either had an ally, but they stayed out of the war as good as they could. However the truth was that they planned to attack the demons when when they had all their forces out of the underworld.

The high counsil of Wizardry had finally identified Melviser and gave a prize on him, but he must stay alive. Over the time, Richards mind had corrupted. He remembered everything, but lost the earlier feelings. The only thing he cared about now was himself and his immortal undead form. Of course, he was taken down, but only by his little brother which didn't knew his real identity. He was judged by the High counsil under a trial. His judgement was: He returned to a normal mortal. The counsil took his time travel ability, but he could regain it if he sucessfulled in many tasks. He only told people about two of them. One was to stay close his brother when doing not any tasks. The other was only told about it when he successfulled it.

Skills: He can use magic and have specialised in Fire, Light and Arcane magic
Abilities: He can travel in time.

Gears: He has just a dagger, but his clothes is enchanted by arcane magic, so it becomes immune to swords and arrows, cold and fire magic

I already started a bit

Character Name: Nathan "Dagoth" Jones

Race: human (that's right, Dagoth chose a human this time)

Sex: male

Description: Just to give you an idea...

that is about it. it's nothing special you know: boots, black shirt, greyish brown trousers, gloves, witch hunter hat , leather straps to hold the flintlocks and his sabre.

Setting: So... the story takes place in 17th century pseudo-medieval countryside, far away from culture, art and other stuff that absolutism was about. Witch hunting has become very popular. Frankly, the people are hunting down all spawn of satan and rightly so. This story is about a war that is being waged in shadows, a war about creaures noone believes in, but these creatures did exist. It's all a conspiracy against us, we will hunt down all werewolves, witches and vampires.

(this is from RSF, actually) (thank god for that thread, it motivated 'the jewel of the east)
Introduction:
A odd looking man enters the tavern. He looks around and spots a great hunter. At least, someone who can afford two flintlocks! The odd looking man with some weird journalism hat went to sit at his table.

"Excuse me. Is there an odd chance that you are Nathan Jones?" The man asked.
"What are you? A reporter?" The hunter grunted.
"Why yes, yes I am." The man with the hat replied proudly.
The hunter raised an eyebrow, ordered a couple of rounds and stretched out his hand. "'Name's nathan." He said.
"Brilliant" The reporter replied.

They exchanged formal greetings and the reporter pulled out a notepad and a pen.

Reporter: So... Can you tell me your name?
Nathan: My name is Nathan Dagoth jones and I'm a witch hunter.
Reporter: Fascinating! And what are you renowned for?
Nathan seemed quite proud of himself, leaned back and said in a calm tone of voice: "I shot one of the most feared warlocks in the district. Received a royal sum for it too."
The reporter hastily scribbled down some words before he continued his questions: "off course, everyone here knows who you are and the Grey courier was just curious about what you were before those days of witch hunting."
Nathan straightened himself a bit and looked a bit more serious. he smiled a bit and told about his youth: "Well, my youth really wasn't interesting. My dad was a merchant and he tought me the basics of economics. I ran from home with some of my dad's savings and used my fencing and dueling skills I learned from my wealthy days to become a mercenary."
The reporter gasped as he hastily kept scribbling notes down. He didn't hesitate with the questions though:

"Surely, our most beloved destroyer of evil wasn't a merc once!"
Nathan took another sip from his cup, cracked his joints and continued: "Well, I only served merchants and civilians for the right price, so I ain't so bad." A big grin was followed by that last remark.
The reporter was a little excited while noting this down. He ordered a glass of water, while he thought up the next question: "So, how was your encounter against Dagoth Gares. Could you describe the epic duel between a servant of God against the spawn of satan?"
Nathan paused a bit, thinking about his reply. "Well, Dagoth was a butal opponent, but I bested him with my flintlocks. He was caught a bit off guard, but despite that, he attacked me!" He said, thinking about every word as if to cover up something.

"Could you tell the readers what the usual day activities are fr you?" the reporter continued, slowing a bit down with his frantic scribbling.
"Well, I usually patrol the roads with the fellow inquisition forces and try anyone who looks suspicious or who has been reported to do strange things or say strange things. Nowadays, there's a lot of werewolf activity. You see, the rabid offspring of normal werewolves become mad and have a permanent transformation, making it imperative that we guard the roads well.witches and vampires are never a common sight, since they blend in with society." Nathan explained. This was more of his element. He knew about this, so he could explain calmly and like a professional.
The reporter looked almost satisfied. He drank from his glass of water and he saw that getting this man drunk would take too long, so he went with the ending questions: "Any final remarks to our readers?" he said.
"Well, I can say that noone needs to worry. The inquisition will protect you. Also, every hunter can make some damn good money if they apply at our military stations here." nathan said quickly as if wrapping this up.
"I see." the reporter said and strapped his notepad to his belt.
"Cheers" Nathan said.

(short summary for if you want to be quick and don't need literary texts)
Background: Nathan was born in a merchant's family. He was a rebel spirit of sorts. He didn't enjoy his faher's line of work, but he was wise enogh to learn the trade. One fateful evening, while he was going to the city in a carriage, back in the time that travelling to the city was a big thing, Nathan saw the other boredom he would have to face once he was a merchant. Nathan decided this was not the life for him, so he decided to leave his home and work as a bounty hunter of sorts. He had enjoyed the combat training of the average nobleman*. His career didn't hit off too well and was charged with caravan protection most of the time.

One day, he was escorting a caravan through the forests of his forever unnamed country and this caravan continued it's travel until the moon reached it's highest peak. Howls were heard throughout the entire forest, followed by growls, rustling in thebushes and the overall feeling of something following you. Not long after midnight, the caravan was attacked by big hairy monsters, killing almost everyone. The hired mercenaries were hardly prepared or equipped for the ensuing battle. Ity ended with many casualties on both sides. In this battle, Nathan held up really well and claimed three kills.

This was reported as to be true and he gained fame and renown for this. He began hunting these critters for money and sport. One day, he came upon a cave, where was sure to find another werewolf, but all he found inside was an old man. This old man offered him food and some shelter for the night.** Nathan accepted and spent the night there. He woke up around 2 AM and found that noone was here. He found tracks*** leading to an open space in the forest.

There he saw the old man with a few old women. They summoned dark spirits and natural phenomena that weren't mant to be done by human hands. Nathan wasn't able to keep his presence hidden and was found by them. the old man threatened him, but nathan dealt with the man's monstrous nature by using his locks to kill his opponent;

Later on, it was known that Nathan killed the legendary warlock, dagoth and gained his nickname in that way. He was enlisted by the church to hunt down witches with the aid of some people and Nathan proudly accepted and now hunts witches, vampires and other unholy demons for glory and money.

*: he wasn't a noble, but a merchant could have this life style, whenwealthy enough.

**: back then, it was considered very dangerous and let's not forget the fact that werewolves do exist.

***: learned tracking from his days in a mercenary band.

Skills: sharpshooting, tracking, basic dueling

Abilities: Ammo trick, he's able to reload very quickly

Gear: basic practial set of clothes plus two flintlocks and a cutlass

Anything else you can think of: people address him as Dagoth, because it's easier, I suppose
