Title: Wanderlust! [Adventurer's Guild/OOC]
Post by: Wayward Pilgrim on May 17, 2015, 09:46:30 pm
Wanderlust

Adventurers, Explorers, Wanderers, Trailblazers...
Just a handful of many names for your kind. Adventurers who traveled to this New World to explore and find out it's secrets. Far across the sea you've found your new home, and only a small portion of it is known to you.
With your newfound companions, you'll travel the New World in search of treasure, secrets, monsters, knowledge, glory, money, and more!

This here is the Adventurer's Guild, where adventurers register to join the leagues of explorers venturing into the unknown wild.

The Adventurer's Guild technically isn't a building of it's own, and is instead built into the inn and tavern of the city of Newport. It's a small city, but already bustling with activity. It has an active market where several folks peddle their trades to adventurers and each other, and several farms and workshops where the people of the village work to supply themselves with the food and goods they need to live.

The tavern and inn, known as the Wanderer's Respite, is rather popular in Newport. The men and women of the village often gather there for food and drink, and of course adventurers swarm the place when they aren't out exploring, dungeon crawling, or on missions.

The Guild really only consists of a desk where at least one of the guild staff is posted, usually sifting through papers and trying to look busy
As a new adventurer who's just arrived in the New World, you have some papers to fill out...

Name: Oliver Wyld
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Class: Spellsword; Confident with both magic and the sword, but lacking in stealth or defensive capabilities, and master of neither.
Looks: Tall, dark, and handsome. Not really though. Oliver is pretty okay when it comes to height. He doesn't tower over a crowd or disappear into one very easily. His hair is a light brown, and styled up in the front to look both modest and totally rad. His face is rather long, and chin is somewhat ovaline. His eyes are about as brown as his hair is, wide and warm. His arms look strong enough to get through the day, but not bearing the kind of muscle that would win a fight. He's got some long, lanky looking legs that end in a pair of feet, as is characteristic of humans.
Likes: Tea with ale, the color blue, fall weather, soft pants, a well balanced sword, watching a theater performance, and flute music.
Dislikes: Harsh sounds, bright yellow, coffee, long drops, hot weather, birds with talons, creepy crawlies, getting covered in mud, and gourds.
Ambition: The possibility of finding fame and maybe some fortune on the side. Maybe even to have some fun before he gets too old.

Name: Vix
Age: Vix flashes ten fingers twice.
Gender: Based on the broad chest, short wavy hair, and quite masculine cologne, it could be inferred he is a male.

Class: The Masquerade Fencer - A class dedicated to the art of fencing, stealth, dexterity, and protection. What makes them unique is every Masquerade oath to permanent silence and constant wear of a mask blaring the color of the royals they swear to protect. The masks have no eye-holes, so the mystery to how the fencer's see is something they will never tell you. Their Rapiers are endowed with magic, and some can cast magics that create confusion, like duplicating themselves or throwing an entire room into darkness.

Looks: His black hair waves over the maroon colored mask with painted silver scratch marks that run along where the eye holes should be. All that is visible is the sturdy line for a mouth that dares not to open. His thin neck attatches to his broad chest. He wears a suit, neatly fitted and decorated with the shinning silver and the bloody maroon symbols he represents. His arms, sturdy but agile rest at his side with his rapier that swirled both silver and maroon colors.. His hands hold the grip upside down with the blade of the sword running up the back of his arm, though every Masquerade is ready to flip it around to proper fighting position at any time. His pants are pressed neatly and are a crisp black. And his light leather boots provide him a little more speed.

Likes: The chatter of parties. Saving Sir Monroe from harm. The smell of cherry seeds. The clap of thunder. The sound of rain. Warm birds.
Dislikes: An upset Sir Monroe. A parried shot by the enemy. The presence of dogs. The smell of cats. Being wet. Unforeseen bumps in the road, literally.
Ambition:  Vix hopes to serve Sir Monroe well on has quest, and if he does so, he hopes to one day serve King Alfred himself. He would give his life for the change to stand by the Kings side with honor.

Make that a....'Is it good?' I guess. Didn't plan on finishing but I did.

Name: Johnathan Monroe
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Class: Hunter: A trained and capable archer with a wide knowledge base in tracking to find prey and concealment to ensure that he gets his quarry.
Looks: Five foot six inches, with a constantly jovial and happy expression on his face. Judging from his looks the leather armor, bow, and dagger of his seem out of place, not to mention the armor seems a mite bit too big for his small frame. On the front of his right shoulder is a symbol bearing his family colors of maroon and silver. Underneath the armor his forest green shirt and brown pants display his desire for a life in the woods.
Likes: Being outside. hunting. books. conversation. good drink. the rain.
Dislikes: boars. bandits. missing a shot. making a non clean kill on prey. people acting entitled.
Ambition: To find the greatest prey there is and kill it to become the most famous hunter to ever live in hopes to find his father's, King Alfred, approval for his chosen life style.

Finished for now. Waiting on whoever my Royal is so I can base my colors off of them.

If you want I can switch my character up a bit to make him a royal. I don't think a Royal who enjoys hunting is too absurd a concept.

Keep it for now, if no one else becomes a Royal than that'd be preferred from you. Thanks!

Name: Khosh Birlock
Age: 19!
Gender: Male
Class: The Strategist. Instead of focusing on one key trait, such as magic, stealth, or having super-deadly weapons or invulnerable armor, he uses actual skill in combat. He focuses heavily on exploiting whatever weakness are found in an enemy, be it a physical trait they have or an attack that leaves them unguarded. In social situations, this translates to him being charismatic and deceitful when needed. He has no magical abilities or ranged capabilities.
Looks: Though his physical features would be hidden by the plate armor he wears, I shall describe him anyway. He has fair skin and is rather skinny, with some muscle from wearing heavy plate armor all the time, and stands at 5'11. He has messy, unkempt hair and a full beard, with brown eyes.
Likes: Anything that brings knowledge, mostly books. A fan of battles in general. Saying "Just as planned!"
Dislikes: Being outsmarted, but that's impossible, right? Anyone he finds to be an "evil bastard" (A rather broad group of people).
Ambition: Left originally to get away from a not-so-great family. Now that that's done, he adventures because he's got nothing better to do. Some fame or fortune would be nice, as would making some sort of impact in the world, but those are pipe dreams.

Name:Mirix
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Class: Monk of the Yellow Rose: The Order of the Yellow Rose is a monastery tradition where peak physical condition is emphasized over the development of Ki-based abilities. While Ki-Training is still done, it focuses on improving the body allowing the adherents to perform incredible acts like deflecting missiles shot at them and leaping incredible heights. The Primary weapon of Mirixs' monastery was the Scythe.
Looks: Mirix, like most monk's, are in top physical condition with a well toned body. He has white, tanned skin and stands at around 5' 11''. He has grey eyes and brown hair which he keeps in a pony-tail.
Likes: He likes to read books and to meditate when he isn't busy. He also likes to write poetry about the events happening around him.
Dislikes: Loud and brash people. Enough said.
Ambition: Knowledge, like any Yellow Rose

kk, official announcement! I'll be putting up the IC for this on Friday assuming nothing gets in my way, I'm writing up the first post right now. You'll all start as new arrivals to the New World, already registered with the Adventurer's Guild. If you want to establish pre-existing relationships or whatever, do that now! Make sure to finish up your sheets too! If I play a character, they'll come down a little further down the line.

I might also start up a totally unrelated, freeform RP alongside this for some freestyle roleplaying.

Bluh, my writing abilities are not at their best right now, but in the interest of getting this out now, the post is coming up very soon. There might be a few little mistakes.

(Vix can't respond, lmao @"Before Vix could respond")

....*facepalm*. Yeah I have no excuse for this one, I'm just not familiar with RPing with(or writing for that matter) mute characters, so I apologize if I screw up in that regard.
Also, there are non verbal responses to things too, though admittedly that's not exactly what I was thinking when I posted that.

Haha, it's totally fine. I thought it was funny honestly, like, I thought your character didn't know he was mute or something. But I thought it best to bring it up to make sure.
