Demetri slid to the side in one sharp movement firing two bullets into Terans Direction then following with another three toward this other gangster... He begins to run at the gangster(Valen) his sword glowing with electricity like that of a Taser. Demetri figured if he could incapacitate this man he would have a much easier time dealing with Teran. The bullets flying toward the man fly off to the right but his sword was perfectly inline with the mans chest meaning to repay him for the stinging gunshot wounds from before...

As soon as he saw the lightning man make a movement, Valen pulled the trigger two times then dodged rolled to the left. He didn't really hear the gunshots, but he instinctively moved. A bullet did nick him the right arm though, and he had dropped his weapon when he moved. Kneeling, he quickly pulled out his two hunting knives, turned to face the man who was now running at him. Not having much time, he crossed his weapons and caught the blade about an inch from his neck. He used one knife to knock the sword away and thrusted forward with the other.

Signature Name: Valen Cromberly Nickname: Val Age: 25 Gender: Male Height: 6'1" Weight: 165lbs Rank: Apprentice Appearance:  History: Valen was born into a poor family living in the Illithid Mountains. When he was ten, some guys the his father owed money to came to his house and killed his family while he was out hunting. Upon noticing his family dead, Valen took all the supplies he could hold, and he left his house to begin wandering the world. He hitchhiked, and stole his way until he reached Bekilk Okarthel while learning many techniques of stealing and hiding. Soon he fell into a gang, and lived with them since then.

Abilities: Biokinesis- Biokinetics have the ability to alter the shape of their bodies into almost anything much like shape shifting. The only different is that the transformation is not permanent and takes a great deal of pain to undergo. Biokinetics generally only shape shift into a few different forms until they master the ability and can change at will into anything. They will have a base gender but that can also be changed through the transformation. His form is: An old looking gentleman with long, grey hair. The transformation is painful

Demetri took the first shoot in the same shoulder and got a new hole in his arm. The pain was becoming more imposing than before now that is was restricting his movements. He allowed his sword to be slapped away and sucked in his gut to avoid the second knife. He brought his sword up to parry another attack but moved back instead looking over at Teran. His arm was now bleeding badly as well as his shoulder. He wasn't sure whether or not eh could make it another round at this point...
He drew back enveloping him self and the area in a heavy mist while he turned and jumped onto the street and followed a crowd out of the city...
Demetri would wait until this gangster left and then go after Teran when he is alone...But for now he would retreat...

Teran Had prepared portals in which to throw spikes but he couldn't get an accurate shot when the two men went at each other with close melee... He watched as the assassin disappeared and then recreated his portals to sit invisibly around the other man waiting for his reaction as the mist cleared and both were in plane view...

Signature Name: Teran Reuna Nickname: The Planeswalker Age: 21(71) Gender: Male Height: 5'8 Weight: 300lbs Rank: Master Appearance:

Background Teran was raised very differently compared to normal children. Where most kids went to a public school and learned math and history, Teran was taught at home by his father how to forge metal and create intricate designs and shapes using different alloys. He had always though that this was due to him being born with an arm made of metal spike making him stand out too much in public, he didn't realize at the time that his father was more like him than he knew. As he grew older and learned more about making weapons his father began to teach him how to use them in combat. He enjoyed several years of non stop sparring with his father until he turned. But that wasn't all his father had been teaching him, he also learned all the things he would need in life such as math, physics, chemistry, English, and history. And as he grew older he learned more and more advanced thing like theoretical physics, quantum physics, chemical properties, and much more. Having always grown up learning from his father he never questioned how his father knew all these things seemingly form memory... Then one day when he was around the age of sixteen his father completely changed subjects and began teaching him about the mind and how thoughts and energy flow together. It was like nothing Teran had ever heard before and when he asked his father where he learned all of it he replied with "I'll show you"...
That was the day everything he knew about the physical world changed, the day he became a planeswalker like his father. They spent what would have seemed like twenty years together on the pantheon of existence traveling while his father taught him everything he knew about the astral plane. In those many years together Teran matured and grew wise though in the physical world only hours went by. In reality his actual age is more like sixty or seventy, a small number compared to his father who was several hundred years old. But eventually his father grew old physically and died on the physical plane. Teran was sad at first but soon passed on knowing that he and his father had had more time together than most people and shared a bond stronger than life or death...
From then on Teran lived on his own traveling much more on the astral plane than on the physical plane learning as his father had and surviving in the harsh merciless world of imagination and thought. When people did see him they saw a young man only in his twenties who was always focused on something, always planing something though they never found out what until he had done it. He was very quiet and reserved now keeping to him self protecting what he though needed to be protected and destroying what he wanted gone. His urges seamed random and he became a sort of puzzle that the world had to solve but no one has as of yet... Views Since he was a boy Teran had viewed guns as a cowards weapon, a weapon that require only a finger to pull the trigger. A weapon that needed no skill but to aim and shoot from a distance far away from your target. Even a bow requires the strength to pull back the string and the accuracy to measure the arc of the arrow, but not a gun... Teran had believed this from the moment he had laid his hands on his first blade as a young child learning under his father. To use a blade was to face one's opponent face to face and have the decency to watch them die like a man. If someone was going to kill someone they had better be strong enough to look them in the face as watch as the light leaves their eyes or they were just tearing their life apart with no meaning. But a blade requires skill and determination and time in order to master the art. Teran is a weapons master and a good one at that, one that will only use a gun in the worst of all cases and even then it would be a pistol at close range. Inventory Twin Slender Scimitars, Multiple Throwing Blades, 100yds Steel Wire, Leather Trench-coat, Lightly Plated Armour, Various steel spikes, Black Leather Gloves, 8GB MP3 Player, Notebook, and Mechanical Pencils...
Tan'ari Blade Two Handed Longsword This weapon is made of a unique black metal which usually glows a blue color. It is unbreakable except by the fire of the demons that made it. It was given to Teran as a challenge to fight the Tan'ari Poseidon...A challenge which he won...
 First Ability Metallokinesis- This is a stage of the earth path but is not directly linked to the base Geokinesis. Metallokinesis cannot be learned it is a trait given through birth. Metallokinetics are born with an unusual metal limb which can vary from being an arm to half of their face. They are only able to manipulate this metal except in the case that this metal is fused into another source then that source can also be manipulated. There are only a very few metallokinetics because the trait appears at random not directly linked to genetics passed down from family members but rather some unknown trait. Metallokinetics are naturally gifted fighters when using weapons of metal. Not much more is known about them than this.
Additional Information: Metal Spiked Right Arm, Spine, and Shoulder.
Second Ability Astrakinesis- This ability is gained form birth but is not usually revealed until after another path ability is learned. Astrakinetics have the ability to manipulate the astral plane. The astral plane is a plane that overlaps the physical plane and has its own laws of physics separate from our own. Astrakinetics have the ability to travel back and forth through the two planes to travel massive distances in a very short amount of time appearing to "teleport" though they are in fact moving on a separate plane. They also have the ability to create dimensional portal between the planes which can allow other objects or people to travel on the other plane. The astral plane is blocked directly around humans preventing anything form appearing closer than a few inches to them. Small short distance portals can be created with little effort or focus, where traveling as a person back and forth causes a lot of physical strain and energy drain. it is also believed that masters over the astral plane can enter the minds of others through the astral plane though it leaves their unconscious body behind as well as opening the astrakinetic to the imagination and will of the mind they enter.

Valen sat there until the mist vanished, and not really noticing the white haired man for the moment. He sheathed his knives and picked up his gun also putting that away. Slowly, he mad his way over to the body of Alex. Kneeling, he took Alex's hand into his own and lightly touched his face. "White haired whose name I don't know," Valen said in a shaky normal tone. "If you're still around, I want your help. I figure since this guy seems to be after you that if I stick around you long enough, I'll be able to ki-help you kill him. There's something in this for the both of us. You get help to kill the guy trying to kill you, and I get revenge for my friend's death. Also, I won't be trying to assassinate you anymore, and you kind of owe me seeing as you killed four of gang members...What do you say? Deal?"

Teran looks at the man hesitantly reading his expression and movements. HE though to him self for a minute trying to decide if trusting this man was the best idea. But after a mental battle he decided that he could be trusted as least for the moment. He would keep his eyes open as always but for now he could at least find out the mans name...
"My name is Teran- Teran Reuna. And you would be?" He asked in a calm tone as he walked over to the mans side. He could feel the negative energy from the dead man as his soul left the body and he knew that he was definitely dead, though he was having a little but of trouble finding remorse for a man that was just trying to kill him... Ah well everyone has their reasons for doing the things they do and he didn't know this mans so he wouldn't judge the dead...

Valen looked up at the man next to him who he now knew as Teran. There was hardness in his eyes as he stood, and he put his hand out to shake while looking into the man's eyes. "The name's Valen. Valen Cromberly, at you service." He said the last part making a slight bow. "If you don't mind, I'd like to give my friend here a more...proper burial than just leaving him on the roof. It won't take long, and then we can figure out what to do next." Not waiting for the other man to say anything, he bent down and lifted Alex over his shoulder and began walking to the edge of the city. (yes, we're still on the roofs)

Just before Valen walks off the building Teran places a portal in front of him and also in front of himself... As Valen falls through he emerges in the Illithid Mountians more than a little disconcerted...

Zane and his mismatched gang of two rebels, his sister, and that random guy from the prison arrived at the outskirts of Bekilk Okarthel. They made there way into the city, and found one of Zane's old safe houses to rest up for the night.

Signature Name: Zane Thompson Nick Name: The Shadow Runner Age: 19 Gender: Male Appearance:

History: Zane grew up in Letzte Asyl for the first 15 years of his life in prosperity. His family was well off and his father owned his own business. He also had a sister that was 3 years younger than him. At least he did, until he stepped on the wrong person’s toes. Zane’s father got in a dispute with a notorious gang leader, who was shaking up some of the local businesses for protection money. Zane’s father made two mistakes. One, he went to the corrupt police that had already turned a blind eye to this particular gangster. And two, he confronted the ruffian face to face, as if he could do anything. The leader smiled at Mr. Thompson and told him he would leave them alone. Then, about three days later, at night, Zane’s house was broken into. He watched as his father and mother were butchered with machetes right before his eyes. His sister was hiding in another room, but she screamed and was found. Zane watched as one of the gangsters dragged her away. They turned to the teenager next, but something snapped in the boy, and he was able to escape. Zane had no idea what he did, or how, but he moved through the shadows in his house and escaped. For the next four years Zane first ran, and then joined up with some of his friends from the streets. He joined their gang and learned how to steal. He wanted to tell his friends of his new found powers, but felt that telling them would put all of them in danger, especially since there were still people hunting him. Zane used his shadow-walking powers in secret, only practicing at night when he was all alone. He became fairly skilled at melting in and out of shadows and could do it at will, instead of just under extreme stress. Zane’s life continued like this for awhile, until he was finally found by his family’s killers. They tried to go after him and his gang. Again, Zane had to watch people die in front of his eyes. But, this time he was ready. Instead of running away, he quietly dispatched the gangsters with his knives, and disappeared into the night… Zane also is on the hunt for his sister, found out that she was too rebellious to be a prostitute for Corleano, so she was sent to the prison in Shinara. This girl's name is Min.
Inventory Zane normally carries with him several knives, wallet, some other normal knickknacks, rope, grappling hook, a small bag of dice, and a pack of cards. Abilities: Lunarkinesis,Umbrakinesis- These abilities are their own base. Anyone who has lunarkinesis also has umbrakinesis. Umbrakinesis is the ability to manipulate shadows to travel between peoples shadows, and also to manipulate people through their shadows. They only have the ability to manipulate people’s movements at night if their shadows are touching. Lunarkinesis is the ability to create shadows to block out any source of light. These usually take the form of black orbs which can only be formed at night. They can also create black lasers which have the same effect as a laser only being black instead of green, white, etc.

Valen sneaked out in the middle of the night, taking to the rooftops. He quickly made his way to a hidden hole in a rooftop, and made his way down the ladder going into the hole. The room he entered was very spacious, and bright. It was filled with about twenty people, all relatively young. The people turned their heads to see who just came in, and jumped in surprise that it was Valen. One of them, a young fellow around nineteen years of age who was very tanned, with long brown hair, and ratty clothing, spoke up first, "What the hell happened to you man?! We thought you died! Where's Alex? We haven't seem him, or you for that matter, since you both left to kill that one guy."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Calm down man! Take a chill pill, relax, and sit down! First of all, some serious **** happened...and Alex is dead..." Valen then proceeded to tell his story of the past few days to the men, and women for there were a couple, in the room. They listened quietly, not interrupting, as if Valen's voice had a sense of authority that they had noticed. When he finished, the room was quiet. Not even a mouse made a noise. "And soo...regretfully, I must leave the gang..." There was an uproar when he said that, but he eventually got them quieted down. "I know, I know, but...I just can't do it anymore. I'm sorry. Tommy," Valen began speaking to the long haired fellow who spoke earlier, "I'm leaving you in charge. I know it'll be weird at first without me or Alex, but I'm sure you guys will pull through. Just remember what Alex taught you, and you'll all be fine. And now...I must leave. To where? I don't know, but hopefully away from this place so I can think. Thank you all for the fun times we had, but now we must part ways. Good bye," and with that, he turned around, went up the ladder, and disappeared into the darkness. Some men came up looking for him, but the quit eventually and went back down. Valen mad his way back to Zane's safe house, but he didn't go back to sleep. He just sat up on the roof of it, waiting for the others to wake.

When Valen goes up to the roof of the safe house, he stumbles upon Min sitting on the edge. A look of extreme focus is on her face. At first, Valen doesn't feel any wind, then a second later he feels a small breeze on his back. Min is also fiddling with a string in her hands.

Signature Name: Elmindreda Thompson Nickname: Min Age: 16 Gender: Female Rank: Beginner Appearance: History: Min is Zane's brother. Most of her history is locked away in a dark corner of her mind that she never wants to access again. And, she doesn't want anyone else to see her past either. Inventory type anything your character usually caries with them Abilities: Aerokinesis- This is the base of the air path and must be mastered in order to use any and all abilities branching off of it. Aerokinetics have the ability to manipulate air currents to change their direction, speed, and concentration. They can use this ability to form funnels of air to blow objects off balance or to concentrate wind into a thin line or sheet to cut with high velocity and accuracy. The user would also be able to levitate on air currents effectively "flying" for long periods of time in order to gain a better vantage point or to direct the fiercer winds that usually already flow at high altitudes. This ability has no clear distance limits other than the fact that winds will lose their speed and concentration as they move farther away from the user becoming less effective without more focused concentration.

Valen watches Min carefully for a moment before stealthily walking over to her and sitting down next to her. He sits quietly for a moment, Min probably not even noticing his presence, before speaking suddenly, "So, what'cha doin' up here?" Valen turns to look at her, a questioning look on his face. "Shouldn't you be getting some rest? It's been a long day for you."

Min jumped, almost falling off the ledge. She looked at Valen, who interrupted her concentration. She smiled wickedly at him. "Oh nothing. I am just doing this." She gathered a gust of wind, and used it to push Valen back onto the roof. She giggled when he fell on his back, looking at him wickedly, but cutely.

Valen kind of just laid there for a moment, before suddenly bursting out laughing. "Why does it seem like everyone I've met in the last few days has some sort of power," he said laughing the whole time. He then took his seat next to Min again, and lightly pushed her in the shoulder, "I guess I deserved that for sneaking up on you. So...you can control the wind?" His look was questioning, but there was a lightness in his eyes, like he was finally beginning to put the last few days behind him and becoming his happy old self again.

Min looked shyly at him, "Maaaybe. I haven't had much use for it in awhile though... But, I am sure I will have fun with it somehow!" Her face was bright with excitement for being free at last. Her eyes twinkled in the moonlight. "If only I could just get out and do something! Now that I have freedom I want to use it! But, my brother wants me to stay safe for awhile..."
