OK, I still don't have a good grip on politics, but... Ooo, could I make dudes neutral if I wanted to? Like, technically part of one faction but not particularly devoted to the cause? I think I'mma try that.
Name: Winston 'Dagger' Cunningham
City-State/Faction: Heliosian
Gender: Male
Age: 17-23, depending on who else joins and what I feel like doing with plot. I will make a solid decision later.
Appearance: I'm guessing this is fantasy, so this:
Personality: Cold and cruel on the outside, very sarcastic and rude, has that elitist vibe the Heliosians seem to have. But underneath all that, buried way deep inside, he can and will care about the people he lets close to him. Sadly, that list is quite short, and even when he does care about people he'll have this aloof 'I don't actually care, I'm just doing this so you'll be less of a hindrance to me' vibe. (if the optional thing in the backstory is kept, this last trait will be nearly nonexistant)
History: Let's go with the usual. His parents were killed when he was 6, when they were visiting a family friend to meet their new baby girl. He and the baby were the only ones to escape the killers. He raised her on the streets, because he didn't trust the authorities not to separate them. (this next part might be optional, depending if I want the girl to be my second character later on) But despite his best efforts, she died of disease several years before the start of the RP. He was devestated, and hasn't gotten close to anyone or really cared about much of anything since.
Weapon(s): Many. His most prominent are this pair of black leather gloves that have hidden claws in the fingers. He can bring them out with a flick of the wrist and start clawing stuff up. He also has a ton of throwing knives, and darts filled with a variety of drugs and poisons.
Magic: Well, pfffffff, he has magic. But it's not elemental magic. If that's not allowed you can ignore this and say he can't have it, but he has this ability called 'charmspeaking'. Basically, he can speak in such a magically alluring way, that it can get you to do whatever he wants. He doesn't use it a lot though, because too many uses in a short period of time makes him dizzy and lightheaded. But if that isn't allowed, fire magic. Because Zuko.
Name: Clarisse 'Fang' Manning
City-State/Faction: Anthelites
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Appearance: Again, fantasy. This:
Personality: Brash and bold, yet still pretty chill and fly. Loves cracking jokes and annoying people for the heck of it. Has a hair-trigger temper, though, and will pound anyone she sees fit. But she's surprisingly smart under all that, and doesn't like to admit she likes science and stuff. She's an Anthelite, she's supposed to be tough, come on man!
History: Also orphaned at a young age, though in a less dramatic fashion. Grew up on the streets, street brawling for a living. Got her teeth knocked in one time, which is why it looks like she has fangs like a vampire, but most of the time won her fights. Even as a kid she was hard to beat. Snuck books from the bookstores and libraries whenever she could, and only read them when she was alone. She still does that, just less often. She's getting easier to notice, by store owners and passersby.
Weapon(s): A replica of the Megaton Hammer from Ocarina of Time (especially if OoT's not a thing here), that can turn into a silver bracelet at the touch of a button. If tech like that's not allowed, then she just keeps it in hammerspace.
Magic: Earth magic, helped her win a lot of her fights. And if it's OK, can she like, get power from the earth or soemthing like that, basically get superstrength somehow from her earth powers? And also, she'll manipulate the ground under her feet to move her along like a moving sidewalk, and get superspeed that way. But that's just a clever trick, the strength is what I'm worried about. If not, I can deal.
Name: Luke O'Hare.
City-State/Faction: Aurorian. But that's just what he grew up around. If you asked him personally, he'd sound more like he agreed with the Equinoxians.
Gender: Male.
Age: 16
Appearance: This:
Personality: Very, VERY naieve. Very loving, very innocent, very flighty. Basically, think of a puppy... And that's it. That's him. BUT. When he has hold of a weapon, any weapon, he'll change. He'll become lucid, calculating, almost cold but not unkind, a true warrior. As soon as he lets the weapon go, he'll turn back into his puppy of a self.
History: His mother was very kind, but she died of disease when he was very young. Leaving him with his father, who... was not exactly a very nice man. He never hurt Luke, but he yelled, and threatened, and insulted, and eventually just completely left the poor boy alone. The kid's been taking care of himself completely for years upon years now, barely aware of anything being wrong. He just wanders the streets and makes food when he's hungry, nothing's a really big deal with him. War? Faction? What's that stuff? He doesn't get it. Fighting? Oh, he doesn't like fighting. Ooo look a butterfly!
Weapon(s): The first time he discovered his lucid-weapon-personality, it was with one of the decorative swords hanging on the wall by his front door. He took it, and has carried it around with him ever since. Just in case. But he's pretty much forgotten about it's presence at this point, it's just kinda there.
Magic: Not sure if I give him air magic. If I do, he'll have no knowledge of/control over it. Like, he won't even know it's there. The wind will pick up when he gets excited, and when he wants the wind chimes to make their pretty noises they will, things like that. He doesn't know how, it just kinda happens around him. He likes the feel of wind, though. It's nice, it feels good. He likes it.
Who do you guys like the best? I can't decide, but I'm leaning towards Luke somewhat...
