If anyone is interested in joining after we start, just contact me and we'll work your character in. :3

Name: Miyan Noramae

Nickname: Mimi

Gender: Female

Race: Shape shifter

Age: 18

Description: As a shape shifter, Mimi can change her size and appearance at will. She has a form that she prefers however, and stays in this form unless the situation demands otherwise. Mimi is small for her age at 5’2” and as such is often mistaken for a child. She has medium-length hair that she normally keeps a light blue color and has dark golden eyes. She loves taking animal forms and will usually have some sort of animal characteristics about her, be it furry ears, a tail, or wings. She has a normal complexion, but is usually extremely tan from spending time outside.

Attire: Mimi prefers to wear tightly fitting clothes made of a special material that grows or shrinks when she does. She likes to wear bright colors, especially violet or red. She likes to go without shoes if at all possible, but will wear sturdy boots if she is going into the mountains.

Weapons: Bow and arrow with differently tipped arrows in separate quivers (dipped in different plant extracts. She keeps arrows that are dipped in a toxin, a tranquilizer, and a paralyzing agent). She keeps several small hunting knives strapped to her arms and legs, and one tied to the small of her back.

Skills: Mimi is extremely agile when in a forested environment. She is well versed in plant lore and plant identification for most environments. She can make many simple medicines or antitoxins with her plant knowledge, and can always identify edible plants. She has limited cooking abilities. She is a skilled hunter but prefers killing and eating fish over mammals.

Family: Mimi grew up in a family with several children of which she was the second youngest. Most of her siblings moved to different areas of Otiun to start families of their own and have not kept in close contact. She has stayed with her parents to help raise her younger brother, Zayko who is 10. Both Zayko and her mother have disappeared since the vanishings have started.

Short Bio: Mimi was raised by both of her parents in a household with several siblings. In her large family she learned to either speak her mind or be overlooked, so she is never afraid to say what she is thinking or ask for what she wants. She discovered at a young age that she had a gift for recognizing different species of herbs and plants. When her parents discovered her ability, they had her apprentice to the local healer.
When she turned 14 her teacher sent her to Imentum so that she could gain more knowledge and experience from the city healers. She lived there for two years before completing her training and returning to her own small village. She did not particularly enjoy her time in the city, and does not plan on ever moving back.

Friends: She has several friends in the village, and kept in contact with a few that she made in Imentum. She is generally well-liked although some people can find her overly-outgoing personality to be a bit annoying. She writes occasionally to her city teacher, Ayoka, mainly to keep up with the latest medicines and studies. She has dated several boys in the past few years, but so far no one has been able to keep her attention for more than a few months.




Name: Donovan Byrne

Nickname: Donny

Gender: Male

Race: Golem

Age: Approximately 30

Description: Donovan is a creature made of living slate. He has a high regard for the human race and has shaped himself as close to them as possible. He is around eight foot tall. He is a light grey color with literal emerald eyes.

Attire: Donovan does not wear any clothes usually, since he has nothing to cover.

Weapons: a stone broad sword

Skills: Donovan has incredible physical strength and stamina that make him an ideal soldier. He is quick to follow orders, but is slow if he has to decide his own actions.

Family: N/A

Short Bio: Donovan was summoned by a mountain witch around three decades ago. She used him as a servant and guard for several years until she suddenly disappeared. Unsure what to do without someone to order him around, he wandered the mountains until a traveling salesman found him. He was traded from person to person, working several odd jobs for whoever his current master was. He has recently been working as a bouncer at a small inn.

Friends: N/A

I'm going to have an entire crew. Hope you don't mind...Its only four characters...Small Airship.

Name: Domanic Kitsune

Gender: Male

Race: Kitsune/Cat

Age: Around 100. You'd not care either if you were in his position after a while.

Description: A tall, sturdy build with well kept and moisturised, lightly toasted skin. His hair is kept in pristine condition and usually windswept. His teeth are usually shining brightly, perfect. His clothing is smart and casual. A tight, white shirt under a smart, a navy blue jacket with gold stitching around the hems like a navy captain.. His tight jeans are tucked into his leather boots that are well kept. Duffed up a little but tastefully. His large belt around his middle holds his broadsword and sworn-off shotgun.

Weapons: A broadsword with red handle leather and a sworn-off shotgun. Essentially, a hunting shotgun, two barrels with an ornate metal body. Leaves and thorns intertwined in a thick pattern.

Skills: Reasonably good with a sword and a reasonably good shot. In a fight, he is an excellent all-rounder brawler, using his good physical fitness. He's an excellent airship pilot and a good business man. He tries to be a real man's man. Being a ladies man has not been yet proven to be true.

Abilities: Dom inherited the Kitsune Ability to create a physical form that the spiritual fox was able to inhabit. Like a vehicle, the Kitsune can use this body to interact with the world. This does mean that the spiritual form of Dom is particularly susceptible to spiritually inclined weapons. He also has the ability to change from cat to human looking.

Family: His Parents are Tyro and his late wife Yuffie. He has seven other siblings; Thomas (A telekenetic twin), Lucy(The Other tellekenetic twin), Toivo (A Witch), Myu (A demon-like woman), Lethanyal (the family Geek), Luke and Matt (The cute twins).

Short Bio: Dom, as he's usually better known as, has always had a fascination with aircraft. At 12, with Leth's help, he built his own airship out of scrap. Since splitting up from the family unit, he's acquired his own airships. Either through bets, money won from bets, occasional theft and trades. Working as a ship for hire, Dom, as long as Leth can't come up with a good enough reason not to, won't turn many jobs down. He's little more than a pirate in many places...

Friends: Benjamin Angus Fletchin, Osiris Amithyst


Name: Lethanyal Kitsune

Gender: Male

Race: Kitsune/Wolf

Age: Around 105. Its never really been researched for long enough...

Description: Tall for his age and thin. He has a slightly pale complexion and rarely seen in anything other than a T-Shirt and jeans but has taken to wearing a jacket ever since working with Dom. His thick, dark brown hair is flat, acting like a sort of certain around his head, threatening to render him blind with the fringe. His thin arms are exposed by the t-shirts he wears and his jeans try to cover the old but comfortable converse shoes.

Weapons: Generally, not the weapon carrying type but usually uses something that he's made. Often however, he will use one of his shotguns, usually a combat shotgun he can modify with scopes, heat-detection equipment, Extra barrels and a reloading mechanism that works like a very slow Tommy gun.

Skills: An OK shot but his forte is computers. He can built, program, hack and repair a vast range of machines. He might not be the best fighter or the best runner but he can definitely think around a problem and build a doohicky to help solve it. Interestingly, his prowess with women has been proven. He's often picked up women Dom had failed to do with his far more relaxed approach.

Abilities: Leth inherited the ability to create Kitsune-Bi (Kitsune Fire). He's unable to absorb energy like a normal Kitsune, meaning that he has a set number he can create before having to wait for a number of hours for his energy to return.

Family: His Parents are Tyro and his late wife Yuffie. He has seven other siblings; Thomas (A telekenetic twin), Lucy(The Other tellekenetic twin), Toivo (A Witch), Myu (A demon-like woman), Domanic (The Airship Enthusiast and Buisness Partner), Luke and Matt (The cute twins).

Short Bio: Mostly spent with his computers, learning languages and all about hardware. He's basically lived a geeky life. He went into business with Dom and has helped him gain a number of ships. He proudly displays the wanted poster from Ranse on the wall of his 'lair' next to the panther girl calender..,

Its not widely talked about by the crew but it has been leaked that Leth may have been abducted for some reason at some point in his life. That happened tends to be between him and Dom. The rest of the crew know bits and pieces...

Friends: Benjamin Angus Fletchin, Osiris Amithyst


Name: Benjamin Angus Fletchin

Nickname: 'Ben'

Gender: Male

Race: Moogle

Age: 18

Description: A White-furred Moogle dressed in a little yellow raincoat, boots and hat. He also wears light chain-mail underneath and a specially made sheath for his large dagger - which to him is a sword - that is attached to a belt that is wrapped around his torso.

Weapons: The Dagger that he carries on his shoulder.

Skills: A surprisingly competent swordsman, Ben can hold his own against most sword-baring foes. He's had to work hard at fighting against people that will tower over him. Other such skills include the apparent knowledge of local customs that help with business transactions. Often, he'll be looking stuff up before the crew sets off anywhere. Finally, he seems to have gleamed quite a lot of expertise with Airships that Dom (their Captain) has found invaluable. They've argued over ships like cars...

Family: His Parents were Hans Jr. and Maris Fletchin. He was an ownly child. He spent a lot of time with his grandad: Hans Sr. Fletchin

Short Bio: He was born into a family with a chocobo hire business. However, he never sat still, it could have been the fact that he's been surrounded by what is used as transport, it could also be because of a few stories he was told by passers-by. His Granddad had plenty more from his days as an Airship Mechanic. This had the same effect something like Power Rangers or Pokemon had on us at about five that was never really suppressed in puberty. Kinda like that idea that might have come from watching Dragon Ball Z, then signed up for martial arts in the hope that it wouldn't be too long before they taught you how to shoot lasers from your hands. Anyway, he didn't take the business and moved out straight away. Once he'd gotten so far, he'd stop and earn enough to carry on moving.

He joined Domanic's crew to see more for less money. Being a Moogle proved useful.

Friends: Domanic and Lethanyal Kitsune, Osiris Amithyst


Name: Osiris Amithyst

Gender: Male

Race: Elf

Age: 90 this year.

Description: A thin, lean man that can never truly remove the oil from the entirely of his body. It's quite possible that his skin will forever have a slight dark tinge to set him apart from the blue-eyes and pale skin elf stereotype he would otherwise fall into. Usually found in denim overalls with a large tool-pockets at his sides and on his chest, a white grubby t-shirt and heavy, steel-capped boots. He has been known to dress up.

Weapons: A simple bow with high quality arrows because all elves seem to have one. However, he also has what he calls 'Malice', a large battle axe that has what is known as lava-stone laid into the blade that forms the image of an old rune also called Malice. Not ever been shown to do anything much. A small, 12-shot pistol handles situations he can't bring any of his other weapons along to.

Skills: A good mechanic. Has been able to fix almost all the problems on the airships he's served on. Of the problems he hasn't fixed, it wasn't worth the bother. He is a competent marksman but also a man that prides his strength. He has trained long and hard to be able to use Malice effectively.

Family: His Parents are Amras and Merenwen Amithyst. They were a close knit family where he had up to 15 cousins and 17 aunts and uncles. And 5 brothers and sisters.

Short Bio: A man that was just good at fixing things. His natural talent was nurtured and encouraged. While there wasn't a huge amount of call from mechanic with elves, he couldn't stay forever. He left when he was 23 and moved away to join up with three other ships before joining recently as the newest member of the crew. He keeps the very small ship running. He's kept himself to himself, never been revealed why so far....

Friends: Domanic and Lethanyal Kitsune, Benjamin Angus Fletchin

Name: Alisson Rowen

Nickname: Ali

Gender: Female

Race: Shinigami (Death God)

Age: 30 but looks in her early 20s

Description: She about 5'11 with a hourglass figure that most women would die for. She has wavy, chocolate colored hair that hits to her shoulders. Her eyes are ringed green and yellow like any Shinigami, and wears black square glasses because she is blind as a bat without them. Her skin is a light color of peach because she don't get outside much which all the paperwork she does.

Attire: She wears a black suit that is fitted to her body, with a white caller shirt under it. She also wears a black tie with skull pin. She is usually wearing this all the time because her job never stops.

Weapons: A Death Scythe in the shape of a black scythe with silver bells on top of it. It can become an earing when she is not useing it.

Skills: She can fight with her death scythe easly, but she in no good at using a gun. She is good with paperwork but wish that it goes away somedays. She also can choose who lives or dies by looking at that person cinematic records by useing her scthe.

Family: The only child of Nell and Alice Rowen.

Short Bio: Better known as Ali to her friends is a quiet, hardworking woman that loves her job, even with all the paperwork. At the age of 17 she is the youngest person to become a full shinigmai, this made her folks proud.

Friends: She has a number of friends from work, but she don't really dated anyone because she is usually too busy. But her best friend Alice as gone missing with a few other shinigmai and it is her job to find out why.

Name: Crow Hwanuh

Nickname: The Slumbering Crow

Gender: Male

Race: Aviant

Age: 127 years old, according to the Wind Calender. Looks to be in late forties, to early fifties.

Description: At the very top of his head, he stands at 5'3, and he weighs in at 100 pounds even. While this makes him rather short compared to the males of most races, amongst his own he is about average height, although his weight is well below average. With black, tiny eyes, slightly elongated nose, angled jaw and cheek bones, and very thin lips, he has a very bird like appearance to him. Dark purple/black hair, streaks of grey making themselves apparent through out the strands, tumbles down his back ending just above his waist and nestling itself in between the two magnificent, rich purple wings that shoot out from his shoulder blades.

Attire: No matter where he travels, Crow always wears a pure white robe, that hangs down far past his feet, lightly trailing across the earth as he walks, yet never getting dirty. The robe is also suited for him, as two long slits have been placed along the back, allowing his massive wings room to move and to be free.

Weapons: A fan, a foot long stone handle, and two feet of purple feathers, from his own wings, hardened through many weeks of treatment with a special salve, is the only weapon that he carries, and the main purpose of it is to direct the elemental powers he possesses to be more accurate.

Skills: The power of the Wind roars through his small frame, a constant battle to keep it under control. With this ability he not only has control of the wind, being able to create tornadoes, straight line winds, and other such forces, but also the power of Storm, a wrecking ball of a combination, as rain becomes a deadly projectile when caught within the force of a tornado. Along side his elemental skills, Crow possesses a brilliant mind, designed to formulate strategy upon strategy, within a moments notice, at the same time as coming up with potential counter tactics that could be used against his own, preparing him for most situations.

Family: His father died months before he was born, leaving his mother to raise him on her own until he reached the age of nine (Once more going by the Wind Calender.) at which point her life was cut tragically short. He has no siblings, nor aunts or uncles.

Short Bio: A year after his mothers death, Crow was told that he was to partake in a series of tests, that would last the course of 20 years, to determine who would be taken the spot of the next Wind Lord. Twenty years later, and Crow is given the title of Wind Lord, having blown away all of his fellow recruits in every one of the tests. For the next 80 years, Crow pushed back attack after attack from the other Lords from the surrounding lands. Never once was his land taken over, not even a portion of it. His strategies foiled even the best of his opponents tactics, leaving them dazed and confused. However, not once did he strike against the other lands in an attempt to spread his own influence, he only sought to build a reputation for the Wind people, that they were not to be messed with. For the next ten years, he taught his son, who although had not won the tests to become the next Lord, was granted the status of High Strategist, the tricks of the trade. No one is certain what caused The Slumbering Crow, a nickname the other Lords had given him due to the way he lied and waited until they struck, to leave his lands. All they know, is that the Seven shall never be the same.

Friends: At this point and time, he has no friends, leaving them all behind on his journey to this new land.

Motive: The Wind land no longer needs him, he has done all he can there, and so he has set out in search of more challenges for his intellect.

Alright, that's everyone! I'll set up the IC sometime tonight. We won't do any specific post order, just use common sense so no one gets left out of the story.

If anyone else want's to join, we will be leaving it open for new characters. Just pm me for details.

Don't worry, Savvy! I will get a post done soon. I'm a little tied up at the moment..

That's wonderful, Psy, welcome! ^_^

We're still letting everyone introduce their characters in the IC thread, so feel free to hop in!

I swear I Pmed you that. Anyway. I'll finish adding Rhiana and James... The hardest bit will be figuring out a story on how James survives long enough to meet the others lol.

I'll edit it into the first post.

Okay done. I'll post in IC as if you have accepted them. But feel free to tell me to make changes of course.

Also "One of the MInd" just noticed your character is 107 years old yet has lived 120 years according to the bio and family fields. That is assuming it is all from the wind calendar of course.
Sorry, I have a kind of knack for picking up things like that. Thought you might like to know.

You are indeed correct Psy, I didn't pay much attention to the years, which I should have. I had to type it quickly, and didn't even bother to check it over. Thank you for pointing that out, and actually it fits in much better, him being 20 years older.

Also, I will be posting hopefully soon.

One said he's gonna wait to introduce his character, so we can go ahead and continue. :3

Name: Xane

Nickname: Ranger, Stray, Shadow, Sunshine

Gender: Male

Race: Human (job: Ranger)

Age: 20

Description: Xane uses his height for his advantage in his line of work being 5’8” though a little tall for his jobs liking. He has short black hair and dark brown eyes, easy for him to hide in the shadows. Xane’s loyalty is to the kingdom and the Rangers.

Attire: Xane usually wears loose clothes that are usually grey or any dark colors. He has a cloak that when his hood is up and he stands still helps him blend into any surroundings, not by magic but by the coloring of the cloak and the way it is weaved together. He wears normal shoes that give him a grip while climbing and help his feet not leave any deep prints.

Weapons: Xane usually uses bows and arrows and can use any bow but prefers long bow, a staff, and arrow and some knives, (throwing and otherwise). He can use a sword he just prefers not to use it.

Skills: Xane works as a Ranger, so he’s skilled in healing, plants, traps (setting and finding), tracking, stealth, and working with animals. He also can cook because his Master never could so that job fell mainly to him.

Family: Xane’s family was killed in a bandit raid a few months after he was born, or that’s what he was told. His mother gave him to an elderly couple right before she died from blood loss. An Elderly couple: Jack and Kathleen (aka Kathy) raised him since, they were his parents though their children and grandchildren he could hardly call family. When he was eleven he became an apprentice to a Ranger, Bill, who became a father to him. His fellow rangers also became his family.

Short Bio: Xane was born in a small village that was raided by bandits just a few months after he was born. His mother had managed to get him out of the village at the cost of her own life. He was raised by this elderly couple in a nearby village, they treated him like he was their son, however their children and grandchildren made sure he remembered that he was not one of them. When a Ranger, William (aka Bill) came and caught him sneaking into a barn by climbing in to the top window. Xane became his apprentice leaving his family behind after that, he makes sure to visit though. He became a full fledged ranger at age fourteen.

Friends: Xane’s friends are mostly other Rangers he works with and was apprentices with. He does have a few friends from the village though. Steven was Bill’s old apprentice and helped him out a lot. Jordan was a fellow apprentice, Steven’s. David is Bill’s closest friend and Xane’s second teacher. He has many friends in the city and other smaller villages, with Chris being the first to disappear from the vanishings.

Oh and Tyro. Just pretend I said Leth instead of Osiris with the PDA.

You can't edit? All righty.

I will eventually I'm just very busy at the moment. This week I have had end of year exams and in two weeks we will have this government run external exam.
Anyway it's a lot of work.

I think I'm going to add in a new character for myself. :3 I'll add him to my second post when the profile is finished.

All right. Also, can you hurry your characters up a bit. Me and Thepsy seem to be at least a day ahead of you. As in, we're on the day of the meeting and your miles away, the day before, I seems. It seems odd. We can stall and characterise for only so long...

To be fair, it was your guys' decision to have your characters at the meeting instead of traveling. When I realized you guys were already there, I started trying to get us a cart. Plan is to hire a cart and travel there to meet up with everyone. :p

Ah...right...err...so, how do we proceed? Do me and Thepsy's characters just stay put and wait or will you skip ahead and arrive?

If you don't mind. As soon as Rosegurl posts again, I'll skip us ahead.

Okey dokey. Always good to have a plan.

Quick note:

If Rose doesn't reply in the next 48 hours, I'll edit my last response so that we can continue with the story.

Alrighty then, posting a new reply to get all of our characters in the same place. :p
