Welcome to Gaia! ::

Thought it would be nice to have a section where people could post an in-depth history of their characters. I myself am really interested in learning about what happened in the past to other peoples Rp characters.

Here are some rules I would like you to follow though if you wish to post your background story.

-Try to make your stories as grammatically correct as possible.
-Try to avoid spelling errors, and when in doubt use a spell checker.
-And of course follow the rules set by Laureen Spear.

So basically, just be as literate as you can.
That's it! Now get writing and have fun doing it!

((Hmm...I guess I will share Dante's past as well, and it will enlighten some of the things that he will be experanceing soon...))



The boy's eyes began to open, and when they did he found himself to be in an unfamiliar place...he seemed to be in a city, but it was dark and a little creepy.

The boy stood up quickly and rested against a wall that was behind him, his body felt weak...and he felt like his right are was a little heavier than his left. He looked down and saw that he was holding a blade of some kind...he was so confused...he also couldn't seem to recall anything prior to being in this dark city.

After a while, he started walking around, carrying his blade with him, trying to see if anyone was around to tell him where he was. After a while, he came across a tall tower that seemed to be the only building with light...he went to walk up the steps when a voice sounding like it came from behind him, "Hey, where do you think your going?" the boy turned around only to find no one when he heard the voice again in a different direction, "No, I'm over here!" The owner of the voice was playing with Dante as it constantly moved around. Eventually, the boy caught the voice and he said, "Aww...you finally found me...Oh well..." the boy saw a man in a black hooded cloak that seemed to hide his face and asked him, "W-who are you? Where am I?" The man laughed and said, "You really don't know...do you?...pity." The man then seemed to just fade away, as if he was never there.

The boy was a little freaked out and stayed near the only source of light he had found...shortly afterwards he heard the voice again as it said, "Man...you seem like you really don't know this place...I guess I'll help you out a little..." The boy looked around and the man was back where he was, his arms folded as he continued, "Well...where to start...ah, how about I tell you about that blade you have for now..." The boy looked down at his blade and listened, "That is a keyblade...why it has chosen you, I don't know...but that is all for now!" The figure then disappeared again into darkness despite the boy yelling out, "No, don't go!" but it was too late...the boy sat down against the wall of the building and said quietly, "I don't want to be alone...."



The boy continued to sit against the wall until he saw something move nearby, causing him to stand. He looked in the direction that he saw the movement and saw a strange creature walking up to him…it was small and it had glowing yellow eyes, he didn’t know what it was, but he knew it wasn’t friendly after it jumped at him with his claws intending to slice him. The boy ran off to the side to avoid it and said with a little fear in his voice, “What is that? Why did it attack me?” but he received no answer. The boy was a little scared…he was alone and something was trying to kill him and he didn’t know why, until he heard a cold voice in his mind, ‘Use the key blade…’ He looked around and saw no one, but he had no time to argue and lifted his key blade into what he thought was a fighting stance. As soon as the creature attacked again, the boy slashed it finishing it instantly.

He was surprised by the effectiveness of the key blade and made his way back to the building where he asked calmly, “Who said that…I mean…who told me to use the key blade?” He then heard the voice again, ‘My name…is not important…’ The boy then saw a figure also in a dark hooded cloak step out of what seemed to him to be a dark whirlwind and said, “What is important is what you will do with that key blade…” The boy looked at the figure and said, “What…what do you mean?” The boy had now noticed that this figure seemed to be different from the other as he seemd to be a statue, as he didn’t even move slightly as he said coldly, “That key blade of yours has great power…and it matters what you do with it because you weren’t born of the light…”

The boy was confused and asked, “I’m not of the Light?” The figure shook his head and said, “No…I don’t believe so…but right now I can’t tell if you are a heartless or a nobody either…if your of darkness or nothingness…” The boy looked down and said, “I…I see…” the figure nodded and said, “Good…now then, I want you to grow stronger…if you prove worthy, I may show you the way out of here as well as your true abilities…” The figure then disappeared the way it had came in, this time the boy didn’t care about being alone…his mind was on just what he was…



The boy's thought was broken after a long while when he heard the first voice again, "Time for you to train!" The boy looked down at the first figure that he had seen here as he continued, "But first...what is your name?" The boy thought for a bit and said, "I never thought of it yet...I guess...you could call me Dante."

shortly after the figure lifted his left arm up to the sky while facing the boy. Dante looked up and saw many creatures that looked like the first one he had slain, but some where also different, falling down to the ground and he stood up and took his first fighting stance as the voice said, "These are called Heartless...they are born from the darkness and they will be your foes for now. We want to see if you are worthy..." Dante looked at the figure and said, "What do you mean by worthy?" The figured lowered its hand after 22 heartless had appeared then said, "You'll find out soon enough..." and with that the figure again disappeared into darkness, leaving Dante to fight alone.

Dante fought as hard as he could, slowly improving his fighting style to balance offense and defense, but he wasn't improving fast enough. He was getting exhausted after he slain the 16th heartless...he then felt a strange power come over him and let his instincts come over him as he lifted his keyblade over his head. Soon after he saw some kind of force above a heartless and it was taking the other heartless into it as well and swirling them around the center of the force. Dante took this chance and finished the last of them off.

He then slowly made his way back up the steps of the building that was the only light he had found as the first voice said, "Very impressive, it seems that you know some magic! The Magnega spell even!" he then heard the second colder voice, "Maybe he is worthy after all..." As soon as Dante made his way up to the top of the steps he turned around, leaning on his keyblade to stop from falling over and saw the two figures in their dark hooded cloaks standing at the base of the steps. Dante then managed to say, "Why...why are you testing me?" The first figure crossed his arms as he said, "We are planning on using you...heck, we may even lend you our powers sometimes if you prove to be what we think you are." Dante was curious, but he ran out of strength and collapsed.

The two figures remained for a while as the cold voiced one said, "It seems that first trail may off been too hard on him..." The first figure made a 'Sorry' gesture with his arms and said, "Well if he couldn't handle that many heartless at this time, he wouldn't be of any use to us now would he?" The cold one replied, "Humph...I guess your right. He must grow stronger, and pushing his limits is the only way to do so...I'll set up the second trail when he comes to." The first figure then said, "Wow, you change quickly...first you say I was too tough, and now your going to put him through another trail as soon as he regains his strength...oh well, it will make him stronger..." He then disappeared and was followed soon after by the cold one.



Time passed and Dante went through countless trials. His trials were spaced out a little at first, giving him a little bit of time to regain his strength. but they soon changed to where the next trail was when he had the strength to stand, leaving him with the only time he could rest was when he couldn't even stand or was unconscious.

Durring these trials, Dante became faster and stronger and he even learned a few more magics, Thundaga and Reflega, which he used often. He even noticed that when he focused his energy in his legs and arms, he would become even faster and stronger than normal.

Then one day, the two figures appeared infront of Dante after a trial had ended. Dante was down on one knee and was supporting himself with his keyblade as the first figure said, "Ok...that will be all for now. You should be fast and strong enough to take down most opponets that stand in your way. Recover and rest...you will be going to a new place to train soon..." Dante was confused as he said, "A new place to train? Whats wrong with here?"

The cold voiced figure said, "Because we are nobodies...we can not train you in the way of the keyblade, and there is only so much you can learn by your self. You will be going to Radiant Garden to attend a Keyblade academy." Dante got to his feet and said, "A keyblade academy?" The figures nodded before the cold voiced one said, "Yes. While there, you will not talk about us nor where you have been training."

Dante had a defiant look as he said, "Why are you trying to make me stronger? What is you plan for me?" The first figure said, "We can't tell you yet, we feel you aren't ready to know our plan...after all, we're still not too sure of just what you are! However, you do show signs of being a-" he was cut off when the cold voiced on said, "No, he will find out what he is on his own...maybe when he does, he will know what our plan is." Dante shook his head as he said, "What ever...I can move fast enough to appear but a blur, and I can fight my way through a hoard of heartless and nobodies...and now I get to go to a place full of keybladers...it should be easy to lie to them for a while. I'm ready..."

The first figure nodded and opened a corridor of darkness for Dante and said, "If you feel that you are ready, then go...become more skilled with that keyblade of yours..." And with that Dante walked through the corridor of darkness and saw he was in a totally different area, "This must be Radiant Garden...and that place must be the academy...I guess I should enroll." he then began his walk to the Keyblade Academy and enrolled. His keyblade training has started.

Chapter I : CRASH LAND

"Jeri!............Jeri!......JERI! JERI! Aceada di my?!" - "Are you there?"
How was the communication link still capable of working. She knew the voice, far too well.
"Night..." was all the twelve-year-old was able to mumble out. Still unconscious, the vessel she was piloting a moment ago was struck by enemies and took great damage. Now here she was out cold, near the controls in the cockpit, with the ship diving nose in. But where?
"Jeri! Acdla di adahtnecde soe?"- "Can you hear me?"
Jeri didn't respond then. Yes, she was there. Yes, she could hear him.
Suddenly she felt the she was being pulled, gently, but with force. Being dragged to the back of the vessel into a corner. Then something curved against her, it was warm, soft, and fury. A few whimpers echoed from it, the 'dog' brushed its muzzle along her cheek to her forehead and then licked her.
"Jeri, vyena vond. Di tafuen fefna.... Baehyna y fefna" - " be strong. You must live..... Try to live"
"Bayonet.... Za..." -"I..." She trailed off, not knowing what else to say. She had opened her eyes and could see the fiery colored fur of Bayonet's back facing her.
" Di ciy lruxiyat." -"You were shocked..." Bayonet simply said, explaining why she couldn't move. The canine was holding a barrier for the girl and himself, along with holding the ship together using the abundant amount of aura and energy he had.
Jeri could only hope now, that the ship would land on a planet without being beaten up completely or burnt from the resisting atmosphere of a world, and that she and Bayonet would live.
For a second the cold metal floor vanished from under Jeri and the canine, but returned.
"piu myjunu." -"Nice work." Bayonet whispered into Jeri's ear, after that it was just a long moment of silence. But the quiet was broken, by a loud crash, and the groan of metal being dented, along with the shriek of glass shattering and clinking to the floor.
This somehow shocked the girl even more, and knocked her of her senses. All was silent again for another long moment, and most of Jeri's senses had returned. But, she could no longer feel the soft, warm, fur of the canine who helped her- just the cold metal surrounding her, there was just now an empty, lonely feeling left.
'nahdnan y tunsahhu, Jeri.' - 'go back to sleep, Jeri.'
She thought to herself. It felt too cool, so she guessed it was night, and all was quiet, and it would be of no use to try to find where she was at a time like this, and it would've brought no help at all. She only pondered in her thoughts and the shadows of her mind for what felt like hours. Until the. There was a rustling of something across from her. Somewhere at the controls, there was two thuds- one after the other- and the crunch of glass being stepped on. And then a gasp which could have only meant she was discovered.
"So she survived...." Another voice said, he was closer than whoever had gasped.
She was then lifted from the corner and off the cold floor, and was cradled into a pair of arms. "C'mon. She needs to be treated."
It wasn't until then that she finally realized her head hurt, and so did her left arm and leg, but she still couldn't do anything about it, she was still paralyzed.

...If I am going to write about chrono's past..then I am going to have to do it about his father first and the war he was in..but I dont know if I am up to it.
