Welcome to Gaia! ::

Post a brief description of the character you want to use in Castlevania RPG. For the moment, I will only accept Human Vampire Hunters. Include the weapon your character is going to use, be that a sword, spear, crossbow, fireballs, lightning bolts, etc. Would be nice to have a priest in the group, as well. Feel free to ask any questions reguarding character creation.

You might be asked questions about your character, to add more detail to the description, or to change certain things that will not be accepted. Wait until your character is approved before starting to post in the RPG thread.

Name: Anderis Crostino
Age: 28
Weapon: Dual pistols
Occupation: Vagabond
Bio: Parents killed at age 6, grew up as nomad and still wanders, kills for money, very quiet yet soothing to the soul...

I'll give you the stats on my character, whom I've worked on for years, but you give me what I can and can't do.

Name: Koru Kinshi
Age: ??? (In the day of the RP approximately 316 years old)
Race: Human
Weapon: Divinely blessed and enchanted diamond katana, plus his own inborn abilities to fight and channel ki.
Bio: Koru descends from a long line of guardians. His family name is the name of the clan which has defended the earth from chaos. Three millenia back, the first guardian, Ritenku was bestowed this power by the heavens. In a battle once though, with an embodiment of chaos, he was unable to control his power, and it destroyed him. Over the course of time, every 400-500 years, a new guardian was born. Each guardian had immortality against age, yet each time, the same embodiment of chaos would destroy the current guardian.
Time had thinned the line down to a very few, and Koru was in line, unbenowknst to his family, to be guardian. An attempt was made on the life of his father, successfully, but a mistake was made in that Koru was the guardian, not his dad. Eventually he found out over the years of the past of his ancestors and what he was destined to do. Now, being the last of his family and his entire clan, he strives to settle the score once and for all.
Desc: Koru can be hurt by physical damage. Yes he heals a bit quicker than normal people, but he can still be killed. The catch it his body will reheal itself quickly once his soul returns to reclaim his body, hence a different type of immortality. He developed an affinity for fire and can heal from it and grow stronger, though ice, and the cold will weaken him greatly. Koru's weakness lies in his soul. Should his spirit be hit directly, he will be hurt badly. Should it be destroyed, he will be dead. Should his soul be captured before it can reinhabit his body, well...he's stuck then.
Due to the divine nature of his powers, his blood is the equivalent of holy water in terms of affect to those with evil nature. It will burn them like acid. Also should vampirism taint his body, it would fight it back like an infection. Should something taint his soul, it's a completely different story, and will affect him.

Well, tell me what you think.

Well... You did include weaknesses that balance out your character against his powers. Your katana would fall under the category of holy weapons. Can you describe your purpose to work as a vampire hunter?


Warrior, you could modify one of your characters to fit the plot and rules.

It's been a while since I came to the Guild... Are you currently playing? Can I join?

(Uh, not allowed to play as game characters.)

As before so again. How would this work? Since I can only come online at night I can't keep up with any posting that takes place during the day. So I don't want to be in a situation where I'm RPing a character that doesn't move while a quiet picnic turns into a raging battle after all.

Kinda hard to reject Carrie, but it wouldn't be fair for the other players if I let you, then they would demand for me to let them have "special" characters. There's nothing wrong with your stats though. You may play that very same character, renaming her.

Time does matter, cause the storyline takes place in the 19th century. Would be absurd to have a human from the 15th century here, unless it is a Futurama RPG or the likes.

Alucard is my favorite Castlevania character. My reasons for only letting humans are many, based on previous experiences I've had hosting other RPGs. It wouldn't matter make any difference whether I explain them or not. Human Vampire hunters are what best fit the plot I have in mind. Anything else would make the plot turn in a different way and perhaps dissolve the RPG into separate plotlines for each character alone, thus destroying the fun. Stuff I've seen in many RPGs that do not exist anymore. Stuff I prevented from happening on a RPG that has existed for 5 years so far.

At the end of this particular plot, we may have another plot involving non-human and non-vampire-hunters... though that might defeat the purpose of a Castlevania RPG, wouldn't it?
