I'll shall be the first to post with my small party.. Took me a while for just so few people, but I think I gave each one a decent story (though I left Aesir's a bit vague and Tarker's was short) to get it started. Once I'm rolling, however, it'll be a breeze.

-------------------------------

Aesir
Race: Human
Looks: Short, slight tummy, white skin, brown hair and eyes.
Age: 19

Skills/traits: Possesses a rudimentary knowledge of hand-to-hand fighting and can use any random object or weapon that is not complex in a pinch, but prefers to use magical spells and minions to fight his battle. As of now, all he can do is cast a small summoning spell that creates a random natural creature, nothing fancy. He is, however, adept at learning new magical spells and is remarkably immune to magical sleep/confusion or other mind altering/controlling spells.

Weaknesses: He is nothing formidable physically, able to be harmed like any other human and has no real stamina, and can get confused if in a wild fight. He also is capable of making human error at times, but he usually thinks things through before making a big decision.

Bio: The leader of the group, a mage with great potential, but little experience or training. He has assembled a small band of adventurers to embark on a crusade for glory, wealth and power, but for noble causes. The group consists of poor beings wanting to acquire the fortune to help their families, the power is so they might better protect themselves and teach others how to do so. Aesir is the most power hungry, albeit not letting it blind him to what needs to be done and what is foolish and wise. He can be impatient for his ultimate goal, however, and this could lead him to give up out of sheer frustration, but the amount of adventure that lay before him is more than enticing enough to keep him striving. He is known for spouting off sarcastic remarks in the heat of a battle. He can't resist taunting his opponent when he is getting the better of them, but while losing or in a draw, he remains oddly silent.

----------------------------

Ra-jul
Race: Lizard-man
Looks: Green, slightly scaly skin, lizard head and eyes, long tail, claws on his fingers and toes, but human arms, legs, chest, stomach, back and fully capable of speaking english, though his tongue causes him to stress his S's.
Age: 23

Skills/traits: Gifted and/or cursed at birth to be one of the cold blooded lizard people, Ra-jul has incredible dexterity, agility, strength along with other abilities. He, like many of his brethen, has been blessed with a magical blood that heals wounds at an uncanny rate. He has enhances senses and is always in a heightened state of alert, allowing him the ability to resist things that cause drowsiness and/or mind altering affects, not too dissimiliar from Aesir. He prefers to use poled weapons as he was taught at a young age how to use them. Spears are his speciality. He is also quite sneaky and good with his hands, allowing a great skill at picking locks, disarming traps and being the team assassin. Lastly, his kind is one of the more intellectual breeds that are friendly to humans.

Note: Lizard-blood does NOT heal anyone BUT lizard people, trying to drain a lizard-man of their blood for medical use not only will do you no good, it'll probably tick them off.

Weaknesses: His kind is often looked down upon for various reasons. They are animals in nature (not too unlike how most humans seem to distrust freakish beings) they often do not wear clothing even though they DO have human-like anamoty and because they are often seen as a superior race both physically and mentally, humans are naturally distrustworthy of them. This makes it hard for one such as himself to find any decent work and has caused fights before. Not a problem in a fight, but while not combating evil forces or trying to get information, it's hell.

Bio: He is a relatively silent character and keeps to himself, but often expresses his wish to just be free like how he was raised. He left his small clan in the caves to join Aesir when he promises fortune and incredible skill should they venture out long enough, so he made a promise to his parents that he'd return one day with said fortune. Being half animal brings some problems to the table, he can have animal-like urges, whether it be for food, mating or sheer bloodlust, but his human half has always kept those feelings at bay, long enough so he could put them to good, positive use.

------------------------------------------

Tarker
Race: Human
Looks: Tall, black skin, muscular, bald and a small scar on his left cheek.
Age: 20

Skills/Traits: He is the frontline fighter, a skilled ambidextrous fighter, usually armed with an iron broadsword in his left hand and an iron shield in the right. Top physical form for any human and a good style of fighting, quick on his feet and a decent knowledge of swordsmanship. He is very skilled at striking a bargain with people too and is quite possibly the best man to turn to when trying to peacefully gain info from someone.

Weaknesses: He's just a human, has no magical abilities and is also known to drink a little bit much. Another one is that, while he can use a sword and shield in either hand, he is at his best when wielding the sword in his left. Not exactly a weakness, but still worth mentioning

Bio: Tarker is quite possibly the best mixture of gentleman and warrior, a brains and brawn that Aesir had ever witnessed and that alone was good enough reason to snag Tarker before someone else did. He has a heart of gold and cares a lot for his sickly mother, but she urged that he go on with the band of adventurers, if for nothing more than possibly gaining money to heal her or finding a magi of great power to heal her themself. It was hard, but he left her to go out on this mission. Aesir assures him that they will complete their quest and do just that.

----------------------------------

Lilith
Race: Dark void creature
Looks: Varies. Prefers to be seen as a red demon with black wings and pitch dark eyes, but she can take a human form as well.
Age: N/A

Skills/Traits: Being a creature summoned from the dark void, she possesses black magical energy of demonic origin. This allows her a great deal of power in an offensive manner, but she prefers to use it for defensive purposes as she willingly allowed herself to be summoned from the dark void. She can erect shields, heal the wounded, cast spells to (in a sense) create light by manipulating the darkness around her away from herself allowing light to shine through and a wide variety of other abilities. She does not like to use dark magic, but is more than willing to teach Aesir what she knows. Her level of power is nothing compared to her brethen when channeling the dark energies with a more evil purpose, but still, she is not to be reckoned with.

Weaknesses: Her unwillingness to wield the full potential of her powers and the fact she has certain disabilities from being out of her realm. Physically, she is capable of defending herself, but prefers to stay in the background and defend her allies. Meaning she is only a support role at best, but she fills it well.

Bio: Nothing is known of her except that she, like a few others of her kind grew a conscious and felt the wicked ways of their great leader in the void was unacceptable. Completely incapable of fighting him due to his immense power, she fled with others and was fortunate enough that a magi was attempting to summon a creature from the void. She willingly moved into the portal and came up, though she did little to aid her summoner who was killed just moments after her arrival by a strange beast. She was forced to kill it, but soon fled and now lives in this realm of existence, trying to make a place for herself as an honest, noble being. She happened upon Aesir and he felt she was perfect for his small band and could not only aid them in battle, but teach him how to summon creatures to aid him in battle. No one knows if she'll stay with the party long or not, but for now, she feels her place is with them.

Kilbirni: Assassin's Creed.

Anyway, I know he's from Assassin's Creed. But this picture is... well, pretty much DEAD-ON what I'd want the assassin to look like, So... yeah, fuckin' live with it. <_<

And don't give me any shit about it, either. <_< Not even on the joking level. And if you all MUST have more detail, I'll do my best to fill it in IN story. I'm to the point... I don't really like bios anymore.

Cool?
Hmm...I guess that's just the way I am, sorry."

I don't care what you are doing, so much
as the idiotic way that you are doing it.


Too much hope is the opposite of despair. An overpowering love may consume you in the end..

More nightmares will come to me now. More than I previously had.

Jeez, Vince, why don't you just ban everyone while you're at it? You don't have to be THAT hard on everyone, I mean, hell, no one even said anything. :blink:

Anyway, bio or not, I don't really care. Sometimes I don't like typing a bio either, so I understand how you feel about that much........ Yeah......
