Demos is a world of change. Change and permanency. Demos is home to many different creatures; many of which are sentient. Some are plants, some are animals. The species of that world never change, even over hundreds of thousands of years. But that does not mean it is a peaceful place. Inside the capital of Demos, Pithoi, chaos was spreading. The people had found out that the world was going to be destroyed. Apparently this happened every 100 years. The people of Pithoi went about doing many different things. Some were angry at the eternal ruler of Demos, Apotheos, for allowing such a thing and were rioting in order to get to the palace (of course the town and royal guards tried to stop them). Some saw the opportunity of the riot to break into houses and steal things. Others sought a magical way to protect themselves. But only a few had the idea to stop the ancient magic from destroying the realm. Stopping Havoc. BREAKING THE CYCLE! Races: Human Hopefully you know what a human is. The most average and balanced race. Elf Humanoid with pointed ears; originating from the forests of Demos. Pointed ears are known as a mark of skill in long ranged combat in Demos. Generally better at archery. Halfling (aka hobbit) Short humanoid. Mostly have curly hair and are usually barefoot. Most halflings live in small villages or on the countryside. Fast, stealthy, and clever. Draconi Dragonlike humanoids that are said to be the descendants of Draco, the legendary dragon patriarch. Very quiet; they are by nature solitary creatures. Can fly and are resistant to magic. Better at surprise attacks than other races. Dwarf Also short humanoids, but very good with blunt and heavy blade weapons. Usually have long beards and live underground. They are very proud and stoic; sometimes they are even considered warlike. Root The sentient plant species mentioned above. Born from underground caverns formed by plants, (which often have magical properties), they are the only sentient plant. Roots contain very potent magic. Character sheet: Name: *Age: Race: Appearance: *Bio: Weapons: *Spells: *s mark optional things. Rules: -No Gmodding. (there must be some sort of weakness for your character) -No spamming (take it to the Spamland or Cbox) -Keep it PG-13 (blood is PG-13, IMO) -OOC is allowed. (just not too much) -I control everything but the Rpers. It is very important to the story. Starting place: Pithoi, the capitol of Demos.

Name: Afas Faria, but is always called Master Faria *Age: 78 Race: Human Appearance: ![]() *Bio: Born towards the begining of the Era, Afas has studied magic all of his life. When he turned fifty five, Afas traveled the land and studied it, learning all sorts things about nature and life itself. When he turned seventy he deemed himself too old to continue traveling and made himself a home in Pithoi where he is veiwed as an advisor by the public and he is often visited by locals who ask him to share his wisdom with them. Afas is aware of the destruction of the world and would like to stop it, not for his sake, but for the sake of all the people that will die if it occurs. Afas is extremely great with magic, however he has little strength due to his old age and even light attacks can do a great deal of damage to him. Weapons: Auruleous- a long wooden staff with a purple orb on the top. *Spells: Infinity Gaurd- A semi-transparent orb of magic surrounds Afas and blocks both physical and magical attacks. While it is up, Afas cannot cast any spells himself. Flame Purge- A great blast of fire rains down from the sky. It explodes on contact. Causes a great strain on Afas after use. Dominion- Several beams of light rain down from heaven upon the enemy. Causes a great strain on Afas after use. Indignation- A large bolt of lighting comes down from the sky. After the initial hit, electrical sparks fly from the point where it hit. Causes a great strain on Afas after use. Fire Ball- Several small balls of fire fly at the target. Relatively weak, but can be used many times before causing any strain. Purify- Several beams of light fly from Afas's staff. Relatively weak, but can be used many times before causing any strain. Smite- Several discs of lighting fly at the enemy from Afas's staff. Relatively weak, but can be used many times before causing any strain. Levitate- Afas is able to lift objects, such as rocks, by lifting his staff. Strain caused depends on the object being lifted. ~~~~~~~ Name: Luke Niere *Age: 21 Race: Human Appearance: ![]() *Bio: During Afas's journey across the contineint, he came across Luke, who was twelve at the time. Luke had no memory of his past, so Afas took him along with him. 9 years later, present time, Luke serves as Afas's body gaurd, protecting his house from the theives who are taking advantage of the present uproar. Weapons: Urthandel- a light weight short sword. Despite it's weight, it is very sturdy. *Spells: Gale Speed- Using the power of the wind, Lukes speed greatly increases. Flame Whip- Fire erupts from Luke's sword as it becomes a whip of fire. |

Name:Sasaki Age:15 Race:Human Appearance: ![]() Bio:Sasaki is a runaway,his magic powers strong but hard to control for him.His village desired that he be killed to prevent calamity coming upon them.Defending himself,Sasaki called upon the flames,intending to scare them away,but,instead,incinerated the people-and the village-to little more than ashes.Because of this,Sasaki prefers to not use much magic if possible,usually never going beyond applying elements to his weapon. Weapons:Regias(the scythe seen in the pic)Its enchanted to help stabilize Sasaki's magic,if only a little. Spells: Fire Storm:The spell that Sasaki had accidentally used,Fire Storm is a spell that unleashes the equivalent of an inferno upon the area,target or not. Hail Sword:A strong wind spell,Hail Sword calls forth a frigid air,causing ice to appear in the air in the form of blades and fall upon the ground,usually destroying something in the process. Ethereal Genocide:Being Sasaki's most powerful,and dangerous,spell,Ethereal Genocide is known by Sasaki,but has never been used.The spell has many different uses depending upon the situation,but the raw spell causes a large translucent rune to appear behind Sasaki,gathering energy before unleashing a pure light blast. Elemental Brand:Elemental Brand,the main spell that Sasaki relies on,is a simple spell,but can be powerful when used under the correct situation.It can add an element,the choice up to Sasaki,to his scythe's blade. |

((Alright lets start, nobody else seems to be joining.)) As the riot was starting in Pithoi, Nav saw the chaos. Thieves breaking into houses, people gathering in the streets, and others marching toward Apotheos' castle. Nav got an idea. It was unoriginal, as people had known about the Cycle before him, during the last Era. But he could swear it was going to work. As long as he got the right people to do it with. He was going to stop Havoc. Or at least try. Apotheos would know more about it than he would. So he went searching for people to help him go on this quest; to stop the end of the world. He asked a Human if he would come with Nav. The man called Nav a madman and walked away. He still tried, nonetheless. |

Sasaki stood among the crowd,watching as people ran into each other,some even fighting over nothing.He couldn't really care about it,seeing that he had his own problems.He had no food,so he went among the crowds,looking for something to sustain himself. |

Eburos looked out from the barricaded stall he and his companions had set up in the market at Pithoi. "It's getting worse." he remarked to noone in particular. Soja grunted in reply, and Gewlin sighed. "Figures," the older dwarf muttered. "The week we come, the whole city decides to erupt like an over-fed steel furnace. We'll head out the moment it cools down, and take this stuff elsewhere." Eburos didn't reply, but kept watching, amazed at the violence and chaos outside. ((sorry for the wait Nav, my post got deleted twice x_x )) Name: Eburos Age: 16 Race: Yew Root Appearance: Glistening amber eyes shine beneath the hood of a dark green cloak. Underneath the cloak, which appears to be woven from fine pine needles, his body is a tightly-wound mass of twisted roots and vines, all bound together into a vaguely humanoid shape. Dark patches of moss sprout from his shoulders. A slight evergreen scent surrounds him. Bio: Eburos left his mother's cave in the Northern Isles for the sunlight only a decaade after he sprouted. After gaining passage to the mainland, he headed south. Searching for a respite from the sunshine again, he discovered the Delia Caves, and was in turn discovered by the Dwarves who lived there. After convincing them that he was not a spy and would not make good firewood, he was allowed to live with them underground, doing his best to spread life in the dampest corners of their underworld realm. Though he could not stand the heat of their fires, he soon discovered that he could work intricate pieces that the dwarves could not, and helped in the creation of clockwork pieces. Working and living in this atmosphere, his body has absorbed a significant amount of metallic dust, strengthening him. Weapons: none. He can use his body as a weapon, but has not yet, being a pacifist. |

Nav looked over to his left and saw a barricaded stall. It was filled with some Dwarves and a Root. Nav had seen Dwarves in action with war axes, and he knew they were powerful. The Root would come in handy, too. He was going to need all the help he could get if he was going to get into the palace and speak with Apotheos. He approached the stall. "Do any of you think you would be able to help me?" he asked. |

Sasaki had made his way through a good deal of the people wandering.He occasionally got bits of information about the impending chaos-not that he really cared due to the fact that he had nothing to care for.As he made his way to a ransacked building,he caught the scent of food nearby and decided to investigate the inside of the building. |

Eburos was surprised when the Draconi approached him. "Help with what?" he asked, glancing back at his companions. |

"I need to get into the palace. I need someone or some others to help me get in. I can't get through the riot myself." Nav said to them. |

Sasaki,emerging from the building with what looked like crumbs clinging to his mouth,continued to weave into the crowd,searching for something to take along with him before he went into the wilderness.He actually contemplated on trying to enter Apotheos' castle via magic,but decided that it would be better to not try. |

The door of one of the mainstreet houses opened up abruptly. A young man in red hair could be seen holding up a punkish looking kid, who had several bruises on his face, by the collar and legs. He reared him back and threw him into the crowd, yelling after him, "That's what you get for trying to rob an old man, you filthy theif!" An old man came up behind him, shaking his head. "Was that truly necessary, Luke?" He asked the young man. The young man spat in the street. "That's the only way to teach kids, Master Faria; by force." |

Sasaki had to speed his walk up to dodge the falling child as he looked to Luke."Yet,in the process of your so-called 'teachings',you manage to drag in others that don't have interest,or patience,for you."He told Luke,meaning every word. |

Walking through the streets of Pithoi, he passes by a Draconi and overhears his conversation with a Root and some Dwarves. "I need to get into the palace. I need someone or some others to help me get in. I can't get through the riot myself." The Draconi said. Soren was intrigued, he walked over and said to him. " I happen to be headed towards the palace, if you like... I could accompany you." |
