Thanks! I'm a bit strapped with homework today though. So, I'll try to make a character sheet ASAP tomorrow or maybe in the morning if I have time. Not sure exactly on the rules around magic, but we'll see.
 
I forgot to tell you about magic! Drat. Well, Here it is: in this setting magic is seen as a science, by and large, and magicians are often under the employ of rulers of nations to give their armies magical capabilities. It is generally separated into three schools of thought: Battlemagery, which is weaponised and active, Enchanting, which has to do with objects, and Elementalism, the least used of the three, which has to do with primitive non-corporeal elements (water, fire, etc.) Magic often has a lot of academia attached to it and is actually quite common in the more powerful world empires.

The only constant I can think of now is this: The more effective the spell, the more exhausted the caster becomes. Magic is a physical and mental strain on the body, so much so that too much at once can cause a coma or death. Previous mages, such as the god-like Orblee the Trickster (most powerful magician to ever live), have made artifacts to allow the use of magic without this toll, but the price paid in sanity was crippling.

....Magic is a thing? Bloody hell, why did you not tell me before?! D:
 
Oh, what was I thinking? *facepalms*

Enki, if you want to retool your character to be more magically natured, I'll make an exception and wait one more day for you to do that. Man, I'm sorry I forgot to put that in the OP.

Well. I was at start thinking on doing a diplomat, but I thought against it later on since I doubted that a full-blown diplomat would be too useful. Magic could have made a full-blown diplomat more, how should I put it, self-sustainable and useful in combat.
 
Ah well. I will not add magic to my character. Also, I will graduate tomorrow, so I won't be able to respond today or tomorrow.
 
Alea Hale
Age: 25
Sex: Female
Race: Human
Homeland: Skol, Pirate Haven
Alea is by no stretch of the imagination, a hardened warrior. Her many callouses and rugged looks are among her most prominent features. Concerned with practicality over almost all else, her platinum blonde hair is often tied into a ponytail or in a bun when expecting combat, as to prevent her opponents from easily grabbing her locks. Her piercing blue eyes appear to harbor intense judgment and can seem hardened against pain to an extent. Her body is not exactly something to talk about: she is certainly not lithe nor sturdy, her average-looking physique is trained, though not to the extent of a professional soldier.
Alea's armor is composed of a relatively light brigandine underneath a chest plate with faulds, shoulder guards, and gauntlets. As for her lower half, she simply had shin guards and metal-tipped leather boots.
When relaxing without threats, she typically just wears a tunic and pants.

Alea was born in a human refugee camp, among the last of the humans seeking a place to settle. As a child, she only received minimal education before being separated from her parents in a kidnapping, being sold off into a pseudo-slavery in Skol. Despite her parents' inability to have saved her, she resents their "abandonment" of her. In the pirate haven, she served as a simple bar-maid and laborer for a time but, by the age of 16, Alea was would be on the seas, taking up any opportunity for work, be it pirating or merchant-work. She would rather die on the ocean than return to a life dominated by tedious and purposeless work. After being exposed to an assortment of characters throughout her life as well as learning about the extermination of the vast majority of the human race, she's become somewhat distrustful and reserved, occasionally appearing scornful towards others, as if they had had a hand in what became of her life.
After nearly a decade of watching theft and cruelty, as well as taking part in it, Alea has snapped following the heartless sinking of a civilian ship from the mere act of "not being worth the wood it was built from," and her fragmented memories of her "abandonment." Disgusted by the indifference of those around her, she seeks to make a positive change in the world but struggles with discarding her past, as an inflicter and receiver of suffering, and her prejudices.
Strengths (list at most 2):
  • Latent Magic: while it is not used, she has latent magic abilities that can be exploited much easier than an ordinary person.
  • Empathizer w/ the Weak: being abandoned at a young age and domineered for a large portion of her life has led her to develop a soft spot for those who cannot stand for themselves.
Weaknesses (list at least 2):
  • Nearly illiterate: poor formal education leads to an inability to read well.
  • Prejudiced: being exposed to a vast variety of people without any personal connections has led to her developing generalized judgments about people based on species, faction, look, etc.
  • Short-tempered: bartering with partners on the split of loot can get heated quickly, and developing a confrontational attitude is first when it comes to getting what you want.
 
Hey guys, I'm so sorry for the delay in the thread. Truth is, I was dumb in not considering that I would be pretty tied up by College finals this week. I will work on the OP asap this week, but I might be a bit on it.

Take all the time you need. If you need to postpone this RP then feel free to do so. Finals are more important than writing text to people that you can't use in your portfolio.
 
Hey Guys, I'm back. Took me a bit longer then expected, then the holidays happened.

All things considered, I'm not sure who is still interested in this idea. I'd still like to run it, if any of you are still keen. I'd understand if many of you have moved on to other things, though.
