Humanity in its early days struggled against the foundations of powerful civilizations that had been for centuries before them. It was only through the gift of magic that they were able to put their stake in the worId which became the first human city, Ithradine. From here they thrived until four tribes joined the infant kingdom each skilled in one of the four base magics, Pyromancy, Geomancy, Hyrdomancy, and lastly Aeromancy. These four 'families' became the main aristocracy and when the king died without an heir, he left in place a system to allow them all to keep power called the Magistrate. The Magistrate is led by a 'Magister' who is elected among the citizens however only the four families have ever gotten to have magisters. In this kingdom called Arcana, the four families, House Pyrane, House Oceanus, House Windel, and House Terra, keep a strained peace with the newest magister being Jerrick of House Pyrane. He leads Arcana on the path of war against the many monsters that lie beyond the ctiy's walls. Any adventurers are now given a guardian should they chose to leave the kingdom. You are one of many citizens within the kingdom, how will you make your mark upon it and the many races in and around it?

Welcome to the land of Arcane where the future is yours to shape whether in evil or good. In Acana, your character is entirely up to you however there is a few rules that I ask everyone follow:

1. You can't start off as one of the heads of government
2. There is no killing off another's character unless you both agree
2.1 In you get into combat with a story character (one that I create), I will allow some to be killed but only after serious fight
2.2 You cannot force another character to do anything
3. Character pictures are encouraged but keep it appropriate
4. Have Fun!
Okay now for the character sheet:

Name:
Gender
Class (Battlemage, Sage, Assassin, Warrior, Dark Dragon, etc. Up to You)
Race: (Human, Elf, Dragon, Dwarf, etc.)
Bio: (Character's History, Personality, and ablilities)
Apperance (What your character's features are, armor, weapons, etc.)

Anyone can join at any time but it will not start until at least 2 join. If you want to make and enjoy a interacitve story, this is for you.

She says nothing, only now bearing a look of confusion in her eyes. To her, you are still the Merchant. It is also likely she does not have the strength to form words at this point. Whatever the situation might be, it is clear that she has been tortured at some point as breaks and bruises in the skin make clear.

It there is one benefit your un-death has brought, it is you are no longer limited by the limitations of normal humans which has made you a asset in Exo. It has lead up to this point, for you are about to receive your first major assignment. The only thing left is to open the door and receive the details.

The room is decorated with priceless artifacts, probably worth more than you are and sitting at his desk is Valentin, the leader of Exo. He invites you to sit as he writes something down on expensive looking paper "Feliox, I have no doubt you know why you are here. We have recently been handed a substantial contract and I believe this is your time to prove once an for all. A very important client has asked us to acquire a very rare and important artifact from none other than the House of Pyrane." he speaks in a very serious tone, he is a practical man always dressing in what works best and not what looks better. It is known throughout Exo that he is in fact a Vampire which would explain his incredible ability to remain undetected. "Everything you need to know is in this envelope. Deliver it to a man by the name of Ivan Blackspire at the Wilted Rose Inn in Ithradine. He will equip for the mission." he orders

I ask the guard if there are ant magic shops. If the people who attacked the sanctuary come back I want to be prepared.

@silver199 this is an RP not an RPG so you don't have to copy your sign up sheet.

(Sorry guys, Had a Busy day) Silver199: The girl tries weakly to back up but the small size of the cage makes it impossible. The cuffs are surprisingly fragile, your sword with some effort snaps them in two. She stares at you for a moment, half shock half confusion, and gently massages her wrists. Her gaze returns to you with a expectant look as to what you are going to do next. The snap was loud enough that you can hear one of the guards lazily start to wake, it will only be a matter of time before his mind become clearer.

Lowco1: You make your way to Ithradine, the capital of the Human Empire, however on you way there you spot the aftermath between a battatlion of magi and a renegade centaur group, there are causalities on both sides but it is clear the Magi won when you spot a odd sight, a warrior dressed in heavy black plate armor with a sword just as tall as he is walking around the corpses. He is followed by a brute of a woman, who appears to be a undead. it is then you notice a magic aura connecting to the warriors hand and the dead.

Nivlac: Chari responds with a small smirk "Of course." she proceeds to lead to a shop on the main street of the town. The sign says "Arcanium Vexis." and appears to be a well maintained building. The guards hops off your back, holding his side "The name is Arthur by the way." he says in a slightly cheerful way. Chari turns around and holds out gold coins "The store owner is a bit..peculiar but this should cover anything you find. It has 'almost' everything a mage could need." she says with a barely a laugh as she enters the store, halberd in hand

Nivlac: There is a shelf with a large tome for each of the four magics, while you can see scolls on the opposite shelf. You see a yellow crystal gem with a inferno raging inside of it and a necklace with a stone arrowhead with a tornado engraved on it (spells are completely up to your imagination, but you must have some indication of training to perform them)

Silver199: She nods once as you close the compartment. The rising guard charges you as you sap his life away but collaspes before he reaches you with his sword. The others die in their sleep, most likely in some pain. The fate of the girl is not yours, she has stayed in the compartment and had no doubt heard the commotion.
