Door of Æneas

Post by Haseo{Terror of Death} »

This story takes place in the year 1986. Your character is on a cruise to Barbados, when suddenly, the ship's generator goes out! The night is too dark to see, and sadly, there is no moon out on this odd night. The night goes on longer than usual, and when the sun rises an island is seen not to far away. Our boat is saved by seamen, and taken to the island of Lucida. The mayor of Lucida's port town, Raine, offers each person an individual charm-bag. The island of Lucida is thousands upon thousands of miles away from any other land mass. This is peculiar, as the crewmen and the captain of the boat, both have estimated, the boat has only traveled 700 miles. Realizing they're all stranded, they've given up hope, and have taken up homes and jobs in Lucida. All is not well, however, after a week people begin to go missing. Lucidas' forests inhabit monsters!

This is an RP, and follows the standard RP rules.

Lucida only has 5 cities, Raine, the port town, Kilik, the island's center, Naiel, the island's most populated city, Taneb, the island's source of vegetables and other produce, and Gyiyg, the island's hidden city.

The only possible way to fight these night monsters is with "Blood Weapons" civilians of Lucida don't have blood weapons, but each of the passengers on the boat has a "Blood Weapon" hidden in their charm. Blood weapons aren't actually made of blood, but they're crimson red in color at all times, and can appear whenever called upon. They take the appearance of whatever the user wants it to be, when called the first time, then it remains in that primary state. Blood Weapons are powered off the user's soul, and there for extensive use of the weapons will result in death.

Monsters have only been seen at night, for they reside in Gyiyg during the day and take the guise of humans. They are seen however the person seeing them wants them to be seen, no two people can see a citizen of Gyiyg the same. When night time falls, their forms change shape into unique beings. Common characteristics seen in all monsters include pitch-black skin with tribal etchings, and a light shade of teal colored eyes. Height, with, or even basic form varies for the monsters.

Character Template:
Name: (Preferably western >.> sick 'n' tired of Asian names in rps ^^)
Gender: (Male or Female)
Age: (Preferably older than 10, and less than 40, as you'll need to fight.)
City of Origin: (An existing American city)
Charm: (The design on your charm bag, make it meaningful to your character.)
Blood Weapon: (Anything that a real person could use.)
Appearance: (Image or description)
Bio: (I don't need a life bio unless it's important. Family, hobbies, the reason you were on the boat, and the reason for the design of your charm.)

you can control as many citizen's of Lucida, or Gyiyg as you want, other than the mayors, i'll assign a mayor per city.

Gyiyg:Moi
Raine: TriedgexHaseo
Kilik:[Pending]
Naiel:[Pending]
Taneb:[Pending]

Name: Brent Andrews
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Place of origin: Detroit, Michigan
Charm: Necklace with sword pendant and finger armor (on his right index finger)
Blood Weapon: Twin katana
Appearance: http://mormongirlbyu.deviantart.com/art ... r-97494137#
Bio: An avid sword collector and accomplished fencer. Brent has for the most part just floated around the Detroit area since he graduated from high school. Every year he has a new job; never able to hold one down, always claiming the same thing, "It's boring. I need something that can keep my attention." Brent had just quit his latest job as a high paid camera operator at a local news station and was on a cruise to relax and "recharge the old batteries." as he put it. And for the most part he was enjoying himself and giving thought to maybe working on the ship for a while when that fateful trip left him stranded on an island with the other passengers. Normally Brent is a laidback individual, beleiving in the idea of just going with the flow and doing his best to stay out of the way of others. But it looks like Brent is about to break his own rules as the cries for help each night continue.

((OOC: As a side note, I was born in '86. So yes I am indeed 23 like my character.))

((With KiteXX as our final Mayor, the Mayor of Taneb, the RP can start. Here's the thing about mayors and civilians, Mayors can leave their homes at night, and civilians fall asleep at ten. Also, as none of us know what a Blood Weapon is, The mayors act as tutors, it is impossible to know otherwise. As a mayor, you can make up anyway to activate a Blood Weapon.))

Day 8: in Taneb, another person has gone missing.

Von held a bat up as a boy infront of him pitched a baseball "BAM!" Von said as the bat in his hands snapped and launched the baseball into the forest. "Crap! I'll get it...Right after I run my bases!" He stuck his tongue out and jogged around the bases slowly, "Heh!" He then ran into the forest, "I'll be back in a few, alright guys?"

"Where is it?" he was looking through the bushes, and someone poked his back, "Come on guys it hasn't-" It was a young man dressed in a black suit, his top button unbuttoned and his tie loose, "This what you're looking for kid?" Von looked at the baseball and grinned, "Hell yeah! Thanks!" The man stared at his charm. "So you're a foreigner eh? Hmmmm" he scratched his chin, "Are you free later?" Von shook his head and shrugged his shoulder, "It's almost seven, and it's not safe to be out at night..." The man smiled and patted his head, "Smart kid, don't worry, I'll protect you." He walked the opposite direction, "Hey, you're going the wrong way!" "No I'm not, that's where I live."

Ethan was leaning against a tree, infront of him was a perfect view of where the ship had docked eight days before "This could have gone better." Ethan turns his back on the view "So this is what awaits me in my life that I tried so desprately create for myself, fates cold hands sure have a way of wrapping it's fingers around my neck. At least if I get off this island I'll have a great play to wright." Ethan walks away from the tree frowning

"Jeez ... Whats in this thing? An anchor?!" Brent groaned as he helped some of the deck hands from the ship offload more of the ship's supplies. "Actually it's mortar mix. If we're stuck here we can at least use the things we have with us." Brent and the deckhand put the crate with others that were on the dock. Brent took a seat on one of the shorter crates and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He had already helped unload sixteen crates in the last two hours, each one seemingly heavier than the last one.

The dock was pretty close to the forest that surrounded the port city. A sudden movement in the shadows of the forest caught his attention. It looked like a woman was walking through the woods. It was odd to see someone in there since the locals all seemed to avoid the forest like the plauge. "-ey ... Hey man." The dockhand he had been helping placed a hand on Brent's shoulder making him jump off the crate and take an unarmed fighting stance. A leftover from his sword training that he couldn't quite shake out of his system. "Whoa! Easy!" Brent relaxed when he realized what he was doing. "Hey, you okay? You were staring off in to space. You looked like you were in a trance or something." "Yeah ... yeah. I'm okay. Just thought I saw someone in the forest is all." The deckhand looked at him funny. "Seriously i'm fine. Soooo, how many more crates do we have to unload today?" "Just ten more." The deckhand smiled at him. Brent just hung his head, "Ohhh ...... goody...."

Day 8: Evening, 8:45 PM, the sun has set, and noises can be heard from the woods.

"Von, the there's a man at the door for you!" Von's landlady called to him. "Who is he? Do I know him?" "I don't know!" "I'm coming!" Von went down the stairs and dropped his jaw, "H-How'd you find out where I live?" "Heh....about that..." The man scratched his head, "Just come with me, I'll show you something cool." He grinned, and Von agreed, getting his jacket, "I'll be back by ten!"

"Why the hell are we in the forest?" "Close your eyes and image a weapon." Von looked at the man, "What?" The man closed his eyes, "Close your eyes" Von closed his eyes. "Hold out your hand, and image a weapon in it." The man opened his eyes, and a black pistol formed in it. Von stared in awe, "H-How'd you do that?" "You can do it, just do as I say, but don't pick a pistol, pick your weapon, the weapon you think is best suited for you." Von imaged a broad gray sword, but got a red sword of the same shape and size. "Whoa, why's mine red?" "Cause you're still a newbie, now let's test that bad boy out."
