Haven Shores



There is a legend… about a land, far out where no alien or creature has ever found. It is said that upon the land, are the desires and wishes of whoever finds it- and that whatever they desire will be found there. Many have tried to find this place, but always have turned up unsuccesful. Many who go insearch of it go bankrupt for loss of funds, and others end up meeting enemy creatures who enslave the adventurers or kill them. The world is a hostile place in this day and age. But now the legend seems dim, the world has been discovered- there is nothing more to be found. Now all creatures in the universe do not care about what is on the planet called, “Nefix”, where it is said the desired land can be found. The planet Nefix is now only used for trade, commerce and a resting spot for weary travelers. Nefix is the capital of the universe for trading and shipping, and few even live there. There is good reason as well- Nefix is a barren planet. Miles and miles of Nefix is nothing but desert wasteland with large boulders, rocks and canyons. The water which surrounds the lands on Nefix is getting crude and dirty… loosing it’s glimmering touch. The only places on Nefix which are kept clean, are guarded heavily by a native, humaniod-race called the Feris, which are humans with animal distinctions. They have magic, and bind their lands with a shield which keeps all the polution of Nefix out of their lush-green grass. The shield does not keep travelers out, but the Feris are keen in senses and are quick to kill whoever enters.

The legend seems dim… all seem to have forgotten it. In the legend, it states that there is a land where wishes can come true and whatever you desire can be found. It states that it is found on Nefix, but cannot be seen from space nor found on any map. If you search for the land, and if your heart is true and you are the one meant to find it- you will. If not… you won’t. They call the land which you could find, “Haven Shores”, for all who sought to find the land of legend tried to find the Shores of Haven. But none have found it… and few even believe anymore.

However… there is a captain who came across a good deal of money. Bored with life, and bored with himself he decided to go in search of this legend. So, he harnessed a great ship which looked much like the olden, wooden ships which used to be used back in the old days of Earth. These ships however, can fly- they do not sail in the sea although they can if desired. He has assembled the ship and has a good amount of food for the voyage along with supplies- all he now needs are hands. He has a few workers already to come with, but he needs a few more. So he sent out information about his voyage. Most scoff at his idea… but there may be a few who wish to come- for their own inner reasons. For all have a different idea of paradise… and therefore, all have a different idea of what their Haven Shores will look like.

Okay! Here is the deal: You can be one of the Captain’s already hired hands, or one who find out about this voyage and wants to come along. Everyone has their own reason for coming: whether it is to find themselves, find their loved ones, simply for adventure, money or whatever reason. Some may even come along even if they do not know of the legend: which MOST do NOT know about.

Planet Nefix is described above, but let me tell you a bit more. It his a huge planet… therefore it is nearly impossible to explore it all or to see it all by eye in the atmosphere. There is magic… and there is a ton of mysterious stuff which occurs on Nefix as well, which is unexplained. (Think of a land like Breath of Fire II if you’ve played it, or ChronoTrigger.) There are many different races which stop by Nefix- because few live on that planet since it is so barren and controversial. Those who work or live on Nefix are usually always poor-unless you own some major company. There are many other planets in the universe where people/beings come from, so they do have technology which allows them to travel in the stars though in this RPG we won’t be going there.

So lets get started!! Oh, and no one can be the Captain since I have that spot reserved for some one I have in mind to play it. Oh ,and please for now- only one char per person. Thanks- if you have some thing in mind, PM me and I will see if I will allow more. PM me though- no posts asking for more then one in this topic! One more thing- my character will be ‘rumored’ to be a Feris Clans member- no one else can be one for plot purposes. ^^; Thanks.

Name:
Gender:
Species: (Made up species are allowed… nothing too drastic. We aren’t going for Black-mage type thing-a-ma-bobs, because remember technology is great and magic is forgotten for the most part. Think more of the lines of the characters from Treasure Planet or Anthros.)
Age: (No number is needed, just a general category like child or adult.)
Appearance: (Of course… details are wanted, I might draw characters for this RPG and make a website. ^^)
Personality:
What?: (What are you in this story? Are you a hand the captain already picked? A wander who decides to come along? An anti-ship-who-goes-exploring person? Be creative!)
History: (If you wish)
Relations: (Family, love, friends…etc..)
Abilities: (This is more on the lines of your expertiece- what sets you apart? Is it your knowledge of the land? Weapons? Be creative. Nothing too drastic.)
Reasons: (Why do you want to find Haven Shores?)
Other: *kills*



Now for my form….


Name: Zei (Z-ee) Yawian
Gender: Female
Species: Unknown, but there are rumors she may be a Feris Clansmember.
Age: Young Adult
Appearance: Just like that! (http://groups.msn.com/NewBeginningsTheChaosBegins/shoebox.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=38) Her hair is a deep, magenta-violet color which is strangely off-handly beautiful. Her eyes match her hair in color, except are a more glistening and lighter shade. Her wings are black, along with her skirt and top and boots which match. Her ears have light gray markings over a soft gray color. The jewelery she wears is completely silver, except for the band on her upper left shoulder which appears to be gold. The necklace she wears around her neck is silver as well, but the jewel inside is a deep, blood-red crimson color.
Personality: She’s very soft spoken and rather quiet, but she smiles a lot and is extremely kind to those she speaks too. She isn’t afraid to give her opinion when asked, and she can startle people when she does indeed speak her mind. Very little is known about her persona… it will be reveal more later.
What: Currently she’s just seen as a wanderer… and she finds out about the ship, so she decides to come along for mysterious reasons.
History: Nothing is known as far as her history goes. She has just recently come to Melah City- which is the captial city of Nefix, and the largest ship port in Nefix. She’s a wanderer… and currently is known to have no home but she sticks out like a sore thumb in the city since she is the only one who has Dragon wings and traits. She’s an odd ball even in this world.
Relations: Currently Unknown. (Plus no one has signed up… I’ll edit it later.)
Abilities: Well, her apperance sure sets her apart. Her abilities are currently unknown.
Reasons: For a deep inner meaning about herself… and for another secret reason.

Return of HPK! Booya! B4! Sorry I've been gone for a bit unorthodoxly long, you see, my ISP decided to have its annual eff-up so...here I am!

Name: Siron Salax
Gender: Male
Species: A Genetically Modified Zasechklyxon, or Wraith (the former being his scientific name). Wraiths are a deadly species that are adapted to living in space as they do not feel hot nor cold. They look like big bugs, standing on 4 legs with two forward pointing talon and one backward pointing talon on each foot with 2 arms out front with three talons pointing forward and are 5 foot long and 3 foot high. They have a wing-span of 6 feet. His wings are concealed in his exoskeleton which is a shiny black. His eyes burn red but has black transparent eyelids to keep out space dust. They get their nutrition by burrowing into ships that are slowing down to enter a planet and eating the crew and supplies. They are very silent and very hard to kill as it is very agile and anyone who sees one usually doesn't live very long as they attack from behind.
Age: 17
Appearance: A usual Wraith but he usually stands on two legs rather than 4. His wings are also slightly smaller as he isn't fully developed. His face has also been humanised slightly. His back legs are normal, but his front two have opposable talons.
Personality: Scornful and burning with hatred, he is an untrustworthy character. However, since he is a scitzo, his good side can sometimes show, especially now when he doesn't want to kill the crew that will lead him to his dreams. He also hates himself.
What?: A Stowaway with many goals.
History: Siron was created in a lab by a group of outlaw biologists. After discovering a nest of Wraith eggs, they took them back to their space lab and began modifying them so they are herbivores. However, they subjects barely managed to lay any eggs before they died. Realising this error, they took cells from the eggs and inserted them into a human embryo and a human carrier gave birth to a human child with increased abilities and instincts. However, when he hit puberty, it all went wrong. The child, Siron, woke up in the middle of the night in incredible pain and began screaming. His mother woke up and ran through, but it was too late. He had transformed and wanted blood. His mother was lying on the floor in pile of her own blood and organs seconds later, and then she was nothing. He then tracked down the biologists and killed them and destroyed the lab. He wandered through space for many years, killing many crews until he found out about a place called Haven Shores. A part of him wanted to be human, and to have his moter back. The other part wanted the galaxy. Thus Siron searched for this land and is now currently a stowaway on this ship.
Relations: One biological mother who he killed.
Abilities: He can hover, since his wings aren't fully developed. He is very agile, he doesn't need air, has heightened senses which allow him to sense a lifeform before he can see them. His exoskeleton can reflect radar as well, like all Wraiths. However, because he is still going through puberty, he can sometimes go through periods of pain and when he is virtually immobile. He can also speak the Universal Language.
Reasons: To either be human and have his mother back or to control the galaxy.
Other: RAAAAAARGH! Not the 'Other'!

BTW I know it doesn't seem I can go anywhere with this character but as the RPG develops, so will he!

Every logical part of my brain is telling me not to join this RPG.
"Stop Bear! You have finals coming soon and you have to study!"

Of course, the illogical part is saying "Stfu, logic r 4 pansy"

Sometimes you just gotta do what you know you shouldn't! n Besides, I really like the idea. I think the RPG will be tons of fun!

Let's see what sort of concoction I can.........uh.........concoct.


Name: Fong
Gender: Male
Species: For all intents and purposes, he is human, but he possesses some powers not common for humans.
Age: 22 Yuri (Adult)
Appearance: He's of average size, somewhere in the vicinity of 5'10"-6' tall, Maybe 180 lbs or so. He has a lean build, somewhat muscular. Here (http://users.nexustk.com/userfiles/fong.html) is a picture of him, and some other useless information about him. The fan is just for show, it's not his usual weapon ^_^.
Personality: Not real involved with anyone, keeps to himself alot. He's not cold and distant though. He is very keen and aware of his surroundings and everything that's going on. He's not anti-social either, and isn't hostile to people who talk to him. Just enjoys peace and quiet.
What?: Wanderer, Rogue. He joins the Captain's expedition simply for the thrill of new adventures and places.
History: See link above to look at his Legend (History)
Relations: Though his wife was killed in the Great Buyan War, he still considers himself married, and prays every day to her soul. Has no siblings or parents.
Abilities: Has a few abilities genuine to him and a select few other humans. First, he has the ability to become invisible at any time. This heightens his attack power, but as soon as he strikes he becomes visible again. He can also execute a colorful special attack known as "Beastly Frenzy," doing significant damage to his enemy (although he must wait a certain amount of time between uses). One other unique ability he has is that he can jump behind enemies suddenly, or "Ambush" them. This works well in conjunction with his invisible capabilities. Aside from those, he posesses basic magic powers, which he uses primarily for boosting his own power rather than attack. His weapon of choice is the Steelthorn, a strong, glowing blue blade that allows for very fast attacking by the user. It is bonded to him, so nobody else can use it.
Reasons: See above. New adventures.
Other: Well, on the subject of killing... *Nukes Erols*
Stupid laggy ISP...

Hey B4! Since it doesn't look like that Outlaw J will be joining, cna't someone else be the captain? I want this RPG to start!

Outlaw JT
1st January 2003, 04:52 PM
Name: Orbal Juchakiophis
Gender: male
Species: Vegan(mammals from the primary planet in the Vega system. They average 1.2 meters in height and are extremely flexible. they have large prominent eyes with a nicitating membrane used similarly to an eyelid. their bodies are covered in short cream colored fur. their hands and feet both have six mutually opposing fingers/toes. they are highly quick and agile and although they are not physically strong their bodies are capable of sustaining massive damage without dying. they are gifted with very strong empathy that boreders on telepathy and usually communicate through emotion rather than language since few people can learn their high pitched musical language.)
Age: The vegan equivalent of 27(about 40 human years)
Appearance: I will include a jpg below. add a black vest to that and change his eye coloring to silver and violet and his fur coloring to light grey and you have Orbal.
Personality: greedy, inquisitive, sharp, has his own sense of justice which differs only slightly from most people
What?: He is the captain of the Starpride(the ship everyone is on)
History: He is a merchant. He grew up in one of the richest merchant families in all of Vega. When he was 14(22 in human years) he was sent to run his families offices on Nefix. When his father died a few years later he inherited the whole company and went home to Vega to run it. Something about Nefix always fascinated him though. He never could get those old tales and stories out of his head. As soon as he had trained up enough of his nephews and cousins to run the company he took off in his favorite ship in their fleet of merchant vessels to settle that nagging curiosity about Nefix.
Relations: He has a cousin(named Seffurg) whom is his best friend that runs his companies office on Nefix. The rest of his family is back in Vega and spread out over a hundred different worlds where they do business.
Abilities: He's extremely thrifty and can read peoples emotions like an open book. He's also very good at understanding(though terrible at trying to speak) most languages. He was a working knowledge of the local lore on Nefix and is possibly the only merchant who has had some minor dealings trading with the Feris.
Reasons: Ever since he worked on Nefix as a young adult he became fascinated with all the stories and legends of the planet. Since he is finally in a position where he can spend his wealth freely and take time off he decided to put his curiosity to rest and find out what is really out there on that strange world.
Other: His companies name loosely translated into english is 'Vegan Traders Guild, Exports, Imports and Worldly Goods for the Common Lifeform, Compliments of the Juchakiophis Family'. most speices just abbreviate it as VTG(Vegan Traders Guild)

An immaculate black coat covers him all the way to his ankles, hiding all sorts of weapons and equipment. If he's not wearing his coat (Which isn't usual) is a long-sleeved crimson red shirt and long dark gray pants. Over all this is a silver belt that holds his two blasters. Boots and black/red fingerless gloves complete the ensemble.
Personality: Very quiet, Phenn rarely speaks for the sake of small talk. He keeps to himself and tends to brush people off with unnerving silence or a simple 'feh'. Deep inside he is a kind person, unfortunately, a deep pain has forced him to keep up his shield towards people. He is also loyal and pays his debts towards those he owes one.
What?: A hired hand who protects those on the Starpride.
History: An unknown enigma of a fighter, Phenn arrived on Nefix to try and find work sixty years ago. He usually works as a bodyguard for merchants, tycoons, and entrepeuners. Those few who Phenn counts as friends know that a great tradgedy befall him when he was younger but hides it under his stoic exterior.
Relations: A sister, but she rarely visits Phenn on Nefix as it's so out of the way. He also has a brother, but he does not even acknowledge he exists. He lives on Nefix as well and both don't even see each other.
Abilities: A master marksman and good with a blade, Phenn has enhanced strength, speed and agility due to his 'curse' as he calls it. Every new moon, Phenn becomes a giant werewolf of great ferocity and instinct.
Reasons: Phenn openly gives his reasons to go to Haven Shores to get rid of his curse, though he hods to himself a hidden reason.

Name: Celia

Gender: Female

Species: Human

Age: Late Teens

Appearance: Her eyes are the most startling thing when you meet her; they're a deep shade of purple, always bright despite her moods. She has blond shoulder-length hair that shines in mixes of orange and gold in the light. Her skin is creamy and pearl colored. For clothing she wears a copious amounts of bracelets on her wrists and ankles: some are dull-spiked, others chains, a few small orbs of silver tied together. Her pants are like modern day capris, except tattered and dirty, as well as black. For a top she wears a long-sleeved shirt, often rolling the sleeves up whenever it's hot.

Personality: Celia's personality depends on how she's feeling. She can be the happiest person at one time, but then the most depressed in another second. She thinks a lot, usually considering the consequences of her words and of her actions (but all that goes down the toilet when she's angry). There are often times when a long period of awkward silence passes before she replies.

What?: She was hired as one of the captain's hands after emulating the styles of several mechanics (explained below).

History: An orphan. She once visited her father, who left her to pursue his own dreams; he lives as a successful actor now, and thought it would be best if the two of them stay out of each others' lives (even though it was nice seeing each other after so long). Her mother drunk herself to death, drowned in bitter sorrow and loneliness.

Relations: Nope. Doesn't know anybody on the ship.

Abilities: Celia has a photographic memory of all the places she's been, able to recall everything that has touched her senses. Beyond that, she can 'steal' other people's skills by watching what they do, and flawlessly reanact their movements. Seeing a mechanic repair say, a car, gives her the ability to repair that type of car with that type of problem; it doesn't allow her to suddenly begin to fix everything. Likewise, she can see an author writing a novel and emulate their style of writing or handwriting, but she won't be able to write a book herself.

Reasons: To experience, basically.

Other: Sleeps nude. *shrug*

Hey Bulba, remember me? I'll join. And be active.

Name: Zurpsky (Zurhp-Schkee)
Gender: Male
Species: Jagith
Age: Teenage-like, although older than the human teens.
Appearance: I am a perfect sphere, hovering in midair. I have random rainbow colored lights flitting about inside me, that have many purposes. I don't have any facial features, although the surface of my 'body' is rough, hard and spiky.
Personality: I am normally a shy creature, but if you get to know me, I'll open up(not literally). I am usually very polite to those who don't know the ways of the Jagith, but I am perfectly okay with it. However, I have a nasty temper, and when you tease me one to many times, I'll start holding a grudge.
What?: A friend asked me to take a ship. I got on the wrong one. ;)
History: Not too much different from a normal human upbringing.
Relations: The parents of a Jagith leave when the Jagith is 20 human years old. Since I am 30 human years old, my parents have left. I don't have many friends, but my best friend, a Jagith as well, told me to meet him on a ship. He didn't tell me the name, so I got on this one. My friend's name is Direntoth.
Abilities: I can use the rainbow lights to do several things. For one, I can change them and camouflage myself. For another, I can blind people by changing the colors to pure light. I can see through the two largest spikes, although my eyes are too small to be seen.
Reasons: Haven shores? Whazzat? Where's Direntoth? Hellllllooooo...?
Other: I basically look like a Core X from Metroid Fusion, with out the X's.
