Welcome to Gaia! ::

Classes

Here you’ll find the available job classes, their rarity and weapons of choice:
Swordsman - common - swords, axes
Gunman - common - guns, crossbows (Guns are new to this world, many prefer to use both guns and crossbows.)
Cavalier - uncommon - spears, swords, axes - Mounted unit
Ranger - uncommon - guns, bows, swords - Mounted unit
White Mage - highly uncommon - healing magic, weak light spells
Black Mage - incredibly uncommon - offensive magic, statuses
Spy - common - short swords
Assassin - uncommon - short swords, throwing objects, wire

Notes:
Rangers and cavaliers are advanced level sword/gunmen, due to the rarity of horses this hardly occurs - must be over the age of 22.
Assassins are an advancement of the spy, but one seldom gained - must be over 18.
Given the state of the war there are likely to be a lot of trainee spies.

Psychic abilities
It’s quite up to the player whether or not their character has a psychic ability but it’s limited to only one ability and is never hugely powerful.

Type suggestions:
Telepath: Basic level mind reading, cannot affect a persons behaviour.

Empath: Feels emotions but cannot alter them.

Mapper: Takes a reading from the ground in order to create a mental map, this is often incomplete and hard to understand.

Whisperer: Can be an animal type but only one, speaks to and understands animals.

And any others you can think of, within reason of course.

Religion

Whilst religion has suffered a severe slump with the start of the war, there are still pockets of fierce believers in its teachings.

The core scriptures of this religion believe that -

When the world began there was a white mage, Maha and a black Mage, Medan; together they created the world and for a time it was good.

Maha’s plants and animals grew at a steady rate in harmony with Medan’s elements but their world felt incomplete. Together they created man, bestowing on him the blessings of both the Goddess and the God; there are still people who believe that they are made of both Black and White magic.

Then Medan’s mind became corrupt, he strayed from the acts of harmonising Earth, fire, wind and water, turning his thoughts towards ways in which to make man the strongest species on the planet. Maha resisted, she wanted her creations to live in harmony; thus the first crusade began.

Medan was restrained beneath the Earth, some devout religious types refuse to eat anything from the ground or under water due to this; here his anger festered and he gave ‘birth’ to child mages, these black Mages made their way to the surface to experience life there. Medan’s children met with resistant as they tried to live their lives and so forced themselves to live in solitude as Maha’s children prospered.

The second grand crusade - a desperate attempt by the followers of Maha to wipe out Medan’s ‘corruptive elements’ - began roughly 300 years before this RP takes place. During this time it is believed that over five hundred Black Mages were slaughtered.

Then the magic started to wane.

Gradually the magic of white mages diminished, as if some sort of counter balance had vanished; the few black mages who had survived were not enough to keep things in balance and whole strains of white magic vanished. Families who had had magic in their blood for generations were suddenly incapable of using it. The crusade had killed Myra’s magic and unless balance was restored there would be no way of bringing it back.

So the crusade was ended, just as the war began; Black and white mages were conscripted since their opposition had no mages, in the war it is mages that give our forces the edge. Without them Myra’s cause is lost but this doesn’t stop people from hating and subjugating both kinds.

Character Sheet

Player's Name: Itsaso
Character Name: Alexey Zolnerowich
Age: 19
Zodiac Sign: Capricorn
Blood type: O-negative
Class: Gunman
Hair colour and style: Curly dark blond, about an inch in length. Most of the time, it's a disheveled mass because he always keeps running his hands through it.
Eye colour: Murky, almost swamp water, green.
Scars: Plenty, the most prominent one crossing his left collarbone and another one over his right shoulder to halfway down his upper arm.
Height: 5'11"
Handedness: Left
Personality: Eccentric would be one way of putting it, with a thin layer of pride. Cheerful to a fault, Alexey seems to bounce through life without thinking ahead of him for more than one day. He's very open about what he thinks, feels and how he sees things, he can be almost childish when he doesn't get his way, but never for long. On a note for the mental safety of people that surround him: feeding Alexey things containing high amounts of sugar is a bad, bad thing.
History: The baby of the family, Alexey was always a little shielded from the real world. His homelife was a very happy one, if at times more than a little dysfunctional due to the middle son. He enrolled into school without any problems. Alexey's first mission was a bit of a drama, not of the bad kind, just the 'please someone gag him now' kind.
Psychic ability: None

Players Name: Blue Elec
Character Name: Ramirez Vagrant
Age: 21
Zodiac Sign: Aquarius
Blood type: AB+
Class: Swordsman
Hair colour and style: Black. About an inch long and naturally standing on end.
Eye colour: Grey
Scars: Running from just in front of the ear down to his chin (right). Missing right earlobe. Back of his right hand. Both forearms. Multiple chest and back. From hip to knee on right. Extensive burns on left hip, left torso and left arm. Missing
Height: 5'11"
Handedness: Ambidextrous
Personality: Frequently depressed with the futility of war. Tried to bury all traces of any emotion he considered to be a weakness. As such it seems like he has very little personality though you might catch his lips twitching to a joke every now and then. Mildly sadistic. Prone to extreme violence. Strange sense of honour.
History: Vagrant has no recollection of his parents, having been left in a basket at the doors of the academy as a baby. He trained from a young age and quickly showed proficiency with a sword. At age 14 he was having a quiet smoke with a friend and, tossing a butt over his shoulder, set light to a barrel of gunpowder. He dived and avoided the worst of the blast, but still managed to set himself on fire and get buried alive. He developed a fear of the latter, a fascination with the former and gave up smoking for good. Recently graduated Vagrant only saw one battle. One his side lost. He was left for dead and only survived because someone with basic medical training was able to tell him what to do before dying himself. Vagrant wishes to seek out the kin of this man and thank them personally before apologising for failing to save him.
Psychic ability: Precognition (Can sense events a small number of seconds in to the future, but how sharp the sense is varies each time.)
