Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Okay, this is my first attempt at making a RP on Gaia, so just bear with me. If there are any complaints, tell me and I'll try to fix the problem.))

Story: This world is filled with strife. Wars have erupted everywhere for seemingly no more reason than a pebbel was thrown on someone else's land. Large kingdoms that have prospered for hundreds of years are suddenly crumbling. People are randomly disappearing. The world is in need of heroes that will help solve the problems of war.

Rules:
No godmodding.
No spamming.
You can have your own story apart from everyone else if you want, this is an entire world. If need be, none of the characters need to meet throughout the RP.
Spell correctly.
That's about it...

((Alright I'll start this off by putting my character in and putting the first post... Here I go.))
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gaia name: Gilthanas1
Character name: Skip Lightning
Age: 852
Appearance: Long black cloak, black pants, white shirt, black boot, longsword hanging from the belt, dark-blue short-hair, hazel eyes, 6'4", 26-year body
Race: Human-Vampire
Personality: Silent and isolated
Weapons: A dagger in each boot and in each sleeve. A longsword.
Skills/special abilities: Vampiric transformation, Regeneration, Heightened senses and reflexes, daywalker, vampiric resistance to disease and poison
Bio: Turned a vampire at the age of 26, Skip has wandered the world for a very long time. Skip has had only one love in his entire life, and she was taken from him after he was turned. They were in their home taking care of their 5-year old half-vampire child when a team of vampire hunters burst through the door and attacked Skip. Skip had fought back, but there were too many. His wife died trying to protect their son, but she died in vain. The only reason Skip lost that battle is because the hunters gave him an incentive, give up and become a vampire hunter like them, or watch his son die. He chose to hunt. For 150 years he hunted, not knowing that 50 years after that fateful incident, his son had escaped. His last job with the hunters had been to hunt his own son alone. He hadn't known this until he saw his target. He ended up killing his son in a fight to the death because his son had challenged him. After that, Skip killed every single one of the vampire hunters from the company and then disappeared from history. What Skip doesn't know is that his son survived. No one can remember seeing him, and anyone who could is dead from old-age. In Skip's lifetime, he has learned from masters of the blade, he has watched dragons die by his hands and from natural causes. He has seen kingdoms rise and fall. No one knows more about the world than Skip, other than the history books, and their knowledge is limited.
((I warn you, no one can play Skip's kid. That role is reserved if the b*****d joins the guild...))





*Skip was walking down the dirt road that connected the border between Crimea and Palladium. A wagon passes him by and stops 10 feet in front of him. Skip walks up to the wagon, intrigued by what this person might be thinking. The door to the wagon opens and Skip notices that it's extremely dark inside. He can see the silhouette of a man sitting inside the wagon, no light is toucing him.*

Guy: Do you need a ride traveller?
Skip: That would be nice, but I don't wish to impose.
Guy: Please, it is no trouble at all.
Skip: If you insist.

*Skip enters the wagon and shuts the side-door. He can see the man smile as the wagon lurches off. It is silent, as both men don't feel like speaking. Finally, the man says something.*

Guy: Do you want something to eat?
Skip: Yes, thank you
Guy: *Hands Skip something to eat from the chest near his feet* Where are you going?
Skip: *Takes the proffered plate and starts to eat*Crimea.
Guy: *Smiles* I'm afraid you won't make it... *The man smiles wide, revealing fangs 2-inches long. The man lunges for Skip, grabbing for his neck. Skip reacts quickly, expecting this from the moment he stepped into the wagon. Skip grabs the vampire's hands and twists them back, breaking them and stopping the vampire's advance. Skip's face is emotionless as he breaks the vampire's neck and rips his head clean off, killing him instantly. The wagon stops suddenly as the vampire's minion dies at the reins from the severed connection. Skip shakes his head and steps out, continuing his walk down the road.*

Skip: 'Tis a shame, he couldn't have been more than a hundred years...

*Skip, finally reaching the border town of Nystar, tries to find an inn. All he finds is a four-day old burned down building and a guy preaching that he saw what happened. Shaking his head, Skip heads to the inn on the edge of town, the inn that only bandits and the like go to. Skip walks in and immediately takes a seat in the corner. A barmaid passes by. Skip waves her over and asks for a pint of ale. Smiling, she heads to the kitchen to fulfill Skip's order. Skip looks around at the people in the bar. The place is busy, full of the people he expected to be in here. He spots four guys in the opposite corner watching him. Skip smiles at them and turns to get his drink from the returning barmaid. She walks away, attempting to fulfill the other orders. Skip glances at the other men again, then shakes his head.*

"Vampire hunters, just what I need. If my luck continues on this track, I'll fight a dragon by tomorrow. Damnit!"

*Skip bangs his fist against the table in a rare vent of anger. He quickly gets control of himself as he notices two of the men start towards him. Skip sits up straight as the men reach him. Skip takes a sip of his ale and stares at the two. They take a seat at Skip's table and order some ale from a passing barmaid. Both men look straight at Skip.*

Rob:"Hi, name's Rob and this here's Joe. We're looking for a vampire who is supposed to be traveling through this region. Seen anything like that?"
Joe: *Smacking Rob in the head* "Idiot! You're not supposed to tell him why we're here. That's why I said I'd do the talking!" *looking at Skip* "I'm sorry for my friend here. Our group's 'project' was supposed to be a secret, but now that you know it would help a lot if you could tell us what you know."

*Skip smiles, realizing that he did there job already.*

"Yeah, you can find the vampire in a wagon 2 miles outside of town."

*Both men almost jump from their seats.*

Both: "What!"

*Skip smiles and shakes his head. Skip stands, gulping down the rest of his drink. Skip drops the pay for the drink in the cup, plus a nice tip. Skip looks at the two men, smiles and leaves, wanting to get out before he has to kill more people. Skip gets outside and hears the man still preaching. Deciding to hear what this guy has to say, Skip blends into the crowd.*

Man: "He was a demon! In the blink of an eye he ripped two of the attacker's throats out!!! He breathed and the place caught fire!!!! It doesn't matter what those men were doing in the inn, if this man is left alive, who knows what else might happen!!!! We must find the thing and kill it!"
Crowd: "Yeah!"
Man: "Do I have any volunteers?" *The man looks arond and spots Skip. Skip immediately knows that his luck really doesn't like him today...* "How about you sir? You look like a seasoned adventurer. You can go after him! I am offering a reward of 1,000 gold for this demon's head and I'll hire you for an extra 1,000!"

*Skip sighs*
"If it'll shut you up, fine. But I don't want you telling me what to do. All I need to know is which direction he went."
Man: "Of course, I wouldn't want to hinder one such as yourself. He took the east road, heading towards Palladium"
"Thanks..."
*Skip turns around and walks back the way he had come into town. Skip sighs and shakes his head.*

Grreeaattt... Now I go back to Palladium. Let's hope things have cooled down for me there...
