There is a sword of darkness, yet it can also be the sword of light. Humans tainted the sword with their heart of malice, destroying the light left in it. Causing war and destruction, bloodshed, and once friends, enemies. The humans afraid of the swords power, took it to a secret place, and hid it there, so that no one could find it, but their own race. The elves, dwarves, werewolves, and other races all sent the humans to a wasteland, to be punished for their sins. And if one were to take a step out of there, they'd be killed. What if, the humans found a way out, and is now once again out to get the sword to seek revenge. The world would be in danger.

[Setting]
Elwynn [the forest of the elves]
In a huge forest, spotted with many different types of trees, all of them raising so high you could never hope to see the tops, is where the elves live. The lakes in the forest sparkle with the small amount of light let in by the giant trees. Small hints of civilazation long gone dot the forest, leaving behind ruins of which strange power radiates. Strange plants grow here, starved by the minimum amount of sunlight.. but they still somehow seem to thrive. This Forest is a place of mystery, bound to frighten even the most hearty of warriors who do not call it home.
Here are hidden villages, some carved inside the massive trunks, others are in the lower branches of the trees. The only way to enter them is to know the secrets of the forest. If you somehow manage to find these villages, the architecture would amaze you.
These building are not built like treehouses, but rather are part of the tree. Ancient elven craftsmen, now long extint, had buit these places of refuge by using the trees to mold themselves into habitable places that would continue to grow forever. As long as the trees stand, so will the villages.
These towns can be massive, spreading through a large clump of trees, comnnected with wooden bridges spelled to never break. Here there are all the buildings, hospitals, schools and even the most basic of houses, in Elwynn forest, every elf is welcome, every elf is made welcome.
Canrif [land of the dwarves]
These mountains lie to the south, bordering on the land of Stormpike. [See Stormpike] Built into the mountains by the dwarves, these create an impenetrable defence. However, if the mountains were penertrated, the dwarfs would always have more weapons up their sleeve. Dwarves may drink themselves out of house and home, but when it comes time to attack, the warriors pick up their finely crafted weapons and proceed to be fierce, valiant and relentless in battle.
However primitive they first seem, dwarves are quite the opposite, they posses little in the way of wisdom, but those who study hard can become great. Dwarves normally like the underground, so their architects, attached to the element of earth, began to dirrect te mining process. Burrowing deep into the mountains, they began to create more civilised things.
Now that they owned the mountains and had created their basic defense, they began to build a kingdom. Now they had food, mines and healing opportunity. They began colleges and warrior training, the dwarves had become a people.
Canrif is really only mountains, they are sharp and nearly impenetrable. However, these mountains (nicknamed "the teeth" for the ressemblance of a predatory animal's chompers) formed a protectie circle around a huge valley. Here the grass grew greenest, the wood hardest. The dwarves farmed this area. Here were beautiful flowers, paid no mind by the dwarves, but creating instead a beautiful painting of a harsh land, cultivated by the right people.
Inside the mountains are hung lanterns to light the paths of the tunnels. These create a complex maze, a place where enemies unfamiliar of the territory would get lost in. After following them for awhile, you would come to large open spaces, in which are built structures, the dwarven towns.
Stormpike [the undead lands]
This land borders on Elwynn forest and Canrif. The lands here are all but deserted by living things, however, it is swarmed by the undead. Here lie all those spirits who hadn't died at their time, here was all those zombies who lasted through time. Here also were the werewolves and the vampires, braving the land as one of the few places they could live.
Here all growth is stunted, Elwynn trees slowly grew smaller until they became stunted, almost dead trees. These became the trees of Stormpike. The vegetation here is almost all gone, all that is left is tainted. Not all of the spirits in this land are evil, but they all are dead, and so kill the remaining living things.
Ruins of old towns lie everywhere, the ground is almost flat, with only a few hills here and there. The grass here always exists, but gains no more color then that of dull wheat. There are few trees, little wood, but somehow the undead towns always are repaired. In these towns the vampires and werewolves live, as the few confined in definate bodies. This place is a wasteland, and few venture here.
Northshire [the land of the humans]
This is the place the humans were exiled to, here holds the secret of the placement of the sword. Guarded by almost every race imaginable, the humans were being jailed. Besides that fact, it was a beautiful land.
The grass was lush, the trees grew straight and strong, everything thrived. Most humans did not mind being confined to this place. The farming was good and everything was beautiful. The races had argued amongst themselves, the elves were trying to say that if placed in a beautiful land, less would want out. It seemed to work.
The land was big, but not as giant as the elven lands. Here there was sunlight and birds and bugs and flowers that smelt like heaven. THis place was paradised, if you enjoyed being jailed.
Bordering Elwynn alone, as well as the ocean, many humans tried to braves the waves. They weren't unhappy, just restless. Everyone knew that the paradise was a shallow one. They could not travel beyond the border unless they wanted to die by an unseen guard. If they were rioting or misbehaving, something would go wrong. So the humans lay in wait, passing the knowledge down from generation upon generation, until one could find a way out and exact revenge.

Magic: None
Bio(optional) ....
---------------------------------------------------------------
[Celestial's form]
Name: Celisha
Age: 23
Race: Elf
Class: Priestess
Apperance: Celisha is an elf, and as such is very tall with womanly curves, facial features of an angel and a unbelievable grace. Her hair, unlike the normal blond, is a Pure, raven black. It falls silkily(<- it is so a word!!) to the back of her knees, having never been cut. Normally she winds it up with a black ribbon into a loose bun at the nape of her neck.
Her eyes are again very different from most elves. They are a deep purple that almost seems to glow. Framed by long lashes, her eyes seem to stick out. Celisha has the palest of skin like most of her kind. It is a creamy white, not translucent, but beautiful and unmarred.
Her clothes of preference include a white robe, cut high, covering her bosom, and very long, covering her ankles with a couple inches. Her shoes are the boots of a hiker, brown so as not to be marred by the dirt of the trails she walks on. A cloak is normally fastened at the hollow of her throat. It too is white, and the clasp is of a silver sured of impurities and molded into a design marking her as a high priestess.
Weapon(s): Just as Priests heal, they kill equally, but with good reason. Trained proficently in the mace, staff and bow, Celisha can be a good contribute to a fight. She also has her magic. It can be used to heal, or it can be used to smite foes.
ability(s): Celisha, as a High Priestess, is trained expertly in her magic. Showing great talent for it, she was offered to become a mage, but Celisha did not want to kill without reason, she wanted to become a priest, in tune with nature.
Now she is trained in very powerful magic that can be used to kill foes easily. Celisha can also provide heals for herself and her friends. Also, if one that has died recently is brought to her, Celisha can decide if it would be right to bring the subject back from the dead. If it was not the person's time, she can ressurect it.
These abilities come at a price however, when drained of her magic, she is as weak as a kitten, and clumsy at best. Normally, two guards travel with her, so if she goes over her limit, they can carry her back on her strecher to the nearest town.
magic; See above.
Bio;Born in Elwynn forest, Celisha grew up in the dark. She was one of the prettier elves.. but her face wasn't normal. It had been rumored that her mother had been a human. Her brothers all looked like normal elves, and they were all training as warriors.
Celisha Idolized her brothers, to her they were the most perfect beings on earth. There were 3 in total, all blond, all tall, all extremly muscled. When they turned 10, they were pledge to serve as warriors. All accepted without hesitating. After a few years at the academy, they all returned together. Now ranging in the ages of 14-17, they were considered men, and warriors.
When they came home to their tree, one of the oldest in the woods, Celisha met them all with enthusiam. She was now 12, not pledged to anything. She went everyday to the temple, praying for her talents to be revealed, so she could train and become an adult like her brothers. After 6 months of praying, fasting, vigilence and dedication in her prayers, Celisha's powers were revealed.
Immeadiately her mass amount of magic was taken into account and she seemed to be destined to become a mage, one of the greatest if she studied hard. However, her long holiness had taken it's toll, she asked the goddess for assitance and courage. Coming back home, she refused the mage life, she instead asked to become a priestess.
The elves, afraid to allow so much power go untrained, whisked her away to the huge cathedral. Here she trained relentlessly until she turned 20. She was now the high priestess, she would have became the guardian of the elven wood, but she refused the duty. Instead she went back home, overjoyed to see her brothers still intact.
She stayed at home for a year, going out each day to greet the plants of the forest, to speak to them through her magic. Sometimes her brothers would accompany her to Stormpike. There they would supervise her as she found all the spirits she could, freeing their ties to the world and giving them peace at least. They called these missions, and on more then one occaision the four would fight their way out.
Her father had demanded to let him come once, saying that he was sure her brothers did a good job, but he wouldn't risk his daughter. By accident, they stumbled into a werewolf camp. Here her father perished, yelling at them for being so stupid.
She held vigil for the next 5 days, as was the custom, then decided she would travel. Accompanied by her three brothers, they left the forest and went to travel to Canrif, to speakto the dwarves.

Hikaru walked through the forest sighing deeply, her sword attatched to her belt, hands ready to grab it out of its sheath. She was never this cautious, but its hard to fight what you cannot see. The forest was dark and mysterious at night.

Celisha stuffed her cerimonial robe in her bag, leaving it vulnerable to wrinkles and any other things that could have been provented if it was folded. There just wasn't any time! A voice drifted up from near the trunk of the tree, it was unmistakably that of her brother Jeremy.
"Hurry up Cel! The tigers are ready, packed and everything. We've stocked the wagon and said goodbye to our sweeties. Hurry up!"
Sighing, Celisha did up the buckles on her last bag and picked it up. Grabbing a couple other bags she strode out to the balcony of her room. Setting her current holdings down on the ground, she returned into her spot in the tree and made another trip with more bags. After stuffing the balcony until the bags reached halfway up the railing, Celisha picked one up and held it over her head.
"Coming down!!"
Peering into the mist below her section of the tree, Celisha found her brothers easily, her eyes were as theirs, blessed with excellent vision. Locating him, her arms swung her package down from over her head and directly onto her brother far below her. A faint grunt came and she smile crossed her face. Continuing with the evacuation of her luggage, she heard it being thumped into the wagon along with the other luggage.
Finally finished with the bags, Celisha donned her boots waiting by the door and put on her leather gloves. Today she wore her black breeches with a green overtunic on a darker green shirt with billowing sleeves. She was dressed for traveling.
Whipping her hair into a ponytail with a black leather thong, She kicked open her door her took the stairs two at a time. Arriving at the last door at the base of the tree, Celisha swung it open onto the scene of her three brothers standing around waiting for her. Shaking her head with a small smile, Celisha went to her Tiger, Cles.
She was a black tiger, her fur glossy and short. Her stripes were purple, spreading over her body generously. The saddle was already on, the girth tight. Elves didn't need reigns or a bit, the tigers were tied to them at birth and as the tigers grew, only the selected rider would tame them. The elves would either use word commands, or in special cases, the animals could read their mind.
"Ok guys, saddle up!"
Smiling Celisha obeyed her eldest brother, Jed. Swinging her leg over the tiger's body, she hooked her feet into the stirrups and leaned forward as she always did to get adjusted. Finally setting she bellowed the command, enjoying her authority of the ride, as a priestess she was tied to the animals, and knew when they were ready.
"Onward! To the mageroyal road off to the main and then down through the forest, Follow!"
Smiling she nudged Cles and off they went, sprung into action and into the traveling.

Hikaru disapeared and reapeared on a tree branch. An animal that looked like a white fox, but with fairy wings and anteaneas, jumped up beside Hikrau. "Hey Rikki, havent seen you in a while, what you got there?" An object was held in the animals mouth. Hikaru took it from Rikki and looked at it, blue and glimmering in the sunlight, strings were attached to it. "Looks like a strange necklace..Could be of use for another sword I guess."
Hikaru took the strings and tied them on the back of her neck. "Thanks Rikki." She said, smiling.
