Welcome to Gaia! ::

Clan Layout

In This Post, I Will Explain:

- Location, Size, + Sections of the HQ
- HQ Design (color of the walls, material used to make it, rugs, portraits, ect.)
- What is in the HQ (library, training room, ect.)
- Descriptions of the Special Rooms (library, training room, ect.)
- What ranks get what rooms (Apprentice = 30 by 30 square feet, ect.)

Now, basically, our Clan HQ, Pandemonium, is located underneath the center of Durem, accumulating 50% of its area. It has a North, South, East, and West Wing.

The HQ has been designed to have a sort of Transilvanian Feel. Its basically a dark castle located underground Durem. It's foundation is held up by magical devices stolen from various high-tech companies and Technology Institutions throughout Durem. Whenever funding is needed, or it just proves to difficult to steal the items nessessary, money is...borrowed from the Bank in Gambino to buy the items needed. 3nodding

The walls are made of brickstone, a large stone-cold gray brick type building material. Lining the walls of the halls are huge tapestries of exquisite designs, and portaits of the Leaders of Old and famous Clansmen/women who commited deeds of great bravery or sacrificed themselves for one another. But, they are only there to cover up the blood that stains the walls around the entire castle...it wasn't easy to obtain this land, that was for sure...

Not only are there tapestries and Portraits, but, of course, their are torches to light the way. Death Clan Members naturally loath the sun and its bright light, hense why Pandemonium is underground.

Their are lots of rooms located throughout the lair. There are four levels. The level I refer to as the first is the one closest the to the surface, and the level I refer to as the fourth is the one deepest down in the ground.

All throughout the castle their are cameras for Security. They are the latest in high-tech security, watching for trouble makers. Trouble makers are punished appropriatly...and those who betray the Death Clan always find themselves staring into the face of Death soon after... twisted

First Level

The first level is immensly populated. There are literally hundreds of rooms on this floor. The halls on this floor are not nearly as lavish as further down inside Pandemonium. The Apprentices are housed on this floor.

The Apprentices are basically the servants. They cook the food, have the job of making sure the HQ remains clean, and they even make special deliveries to those of Lutenient Rank or Higher.

DeMarkcus only accepts Apprentices who he can sense have potential for Magic Abilities but have not yet realized it. Once an Apprentice demonstrates to the Leader or Second or Third in Command that they have realized their magic potential and they have the ability to cast magic, they are upgraded to Beginner Clansmen and moved down to the Second Level.

The housing rooms on the First Level are 30 by 30 square feet.


Second Level

The Second Level is where the Beginner, Middle, and UpperClansmen/women recide. When an UpperClansman/woman is upgraded in rank they are moved to a room on the Third Level.

All ranks on this floor get the same sized room. The housing rooms are 50 by 50 square feet.


Third Level

The Third Level is where the Privates and Lutenients recide. If at any time a Lutenient is selected to fill the position of Third In Command, they move down to the Fourth Level.

All ranks on this floor get the same sized room. The housing rooms are 75 by 75 square feet.


Fourth Level

The Fourth Level is where the Leader, Second in Command, and Third in Command reside. Third in Command may be upgraded to Second in Command upgraded to Leader if any of these positions were to become open. They would then more into the according room.

Different ranks on this floor get different sized rooms.

The Leader gets the center room (all room are in the North Wing) which is 150 by 150 square feet.

Second in Command's room is 100 by 100 Square feet, as well as Third in Command's.

Special Rooms

There are many 'special rooms' inside the HQ. They are rooms open to all members of the Death Clan to go into.

Common Room - There are one of these on the First, Second, and Third Levels. These are rooms where any Death Clan Member can go and 'hang out' with other Death Clan Members. In these rooms you will find black leather sofas in which to sit on and relax, black marble tables, many more exquiside tapestries, and over 10,000 books in each. Books ranging from a book of master spells, to biographies of the Leaders of Old and important Clansmen/women, to books with unknown origins and unknown meanings. In each Common Room, is a copy of the Death Clan Rules and Ranks, along with a book holding the names of all who are in the Clan and their ranks. Also, there is one book, which can never be removed from any of the common rooms. This book contains the names of all who have died from the beginning of the Death Clan, to the present. When they died, how they died, their rank, and the reason they were put into the book. (I.E. They sacrificed themself to save another, ect.) The original copy is missing to everyone except DeMarkcus, the one who keeps it safe in his living quarters.

Each room is 200 by 200 square feet. They are located in the West Wing on each Level, one right under the other.

Dining Hall

As with the Common Rooms, there is a Dining Hall located on the First, Second, and Third Levels. Long red tables line each Dining Hall, places for Clansmen/women to sit and enjoy their breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner.

The actual area where the food is being cooked is on the Fourth Level. The Apprentices take shifts working to cook all the food being ordered from upstairs. Around the clock most of them work, having multiple cooking areas for different foods. Anything from Chinese Noodles to an American Hotdog, (just references. no actual countries exist on Gaia) they cook just about every dish on the planet. When the food is finished cooking, it is taken up to the Dining Halls, in which it is put into a large pan for everyone to take anything they want.

The Leader, Second in Command, and Third in Command all get their food served to them, cooked exactly to their own tasting, anything they want they get.

These are all located in the East Wing, underneath and on top of one another. Each room is 300 by 300 square feet.

Conferance/War Room

The Conferance/War Room is basically just like it sounds. It is the room where the Leader, Second in Command, and Third in Command meet to discuss battle strategies, who to go to war with, why we are going to fight someone, something, or another Clan.

It is decorated like most other rooms in Pandemonium, only this room is dedicated to the War Heros of the Death Clan. Their portraits decorate the walls, their names incraved into their Golden Frame.

The seating arrangments differ depending on who is using it. Considering their is only a Leader and a Second in Command at the moment, chairs are arranged in rows for people to be seated, with a row down the middle of the room for people to walk.

This room is 450 by 450 square feet and is located in the North Wing on the Third and Fourth Levels. (the height is so high it takes two floors to hold. Think of your high-school gym only a lot bigger. Assuming your high-school has the same type of Gym as a High School in NJ. Not that I'm in High School, I've just been there a few...I've said too much already. xp )

Training Hall/Torcher Chamber

The Training Hall is exactly as its name implies. It is an enormous room. There is an obstacle course to work on fitness, dummies for Assassins to practice assassination techniques, bullseyes for Ninja Throwing Knives and Assassin Arrows Aiming, and, for Dark Knights, rabid animals and creatures of all sorts to do battle with.

This room is very bland. Considering their are many injuries in here, blood stains from humans, demons, monsters, ect., DeMarkcus left it untouched, and it remained the plain cold grey color. Blood stains decorate the floor and the walls, adding in some color.

In the back of the room lies two pairs of black double-doors. The double doors on the left are locked, and only teh Three Leader Trio (Leader, Second in Command, and Third in Command) have a key into this room. The right doors are also locked, but can be opened by using Death Magic on it. Inside is an endless supply of weapons to be used. They, however, all have tags on them and they cannot be taken out of the Training Hall unless the tag is temporarily disabled for the weapon to be borrowed, which, ofcourse, can only be done by a person in high command. A person may only borrow one weapon at once.

The height of this place is the same as the Conferance/War Room. Instead, it is located in the South Wing on the Third and Fourth Level. It is 650 by 650 square feet.

Infirmary

Medicine, among many other things, is also stolen for the Clan. This is the place where medicine is used to heal wounds or help ease pain, because Death Magic is not used to heal.

This is as plain a room as any. Certain Apprentices are trained to distribute and apply herbs and medicine to patients. The place is the normal cold grey color. There are quite a bit of beds, and red and black curtains to seperate the beds and give people privacy.

This is located right next to the Training Hall on the Fourth Level. It is 300 by 300 square feet.



This is a map of Underground Passages, their doors, their elevators, and where they are so you know. 3nodding mY 3D171NG 5K1115 PWN3RZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111ONEONE1111ONE11ELEVEN

Clan Bios

Death Clan Bios

Kujasan's Bio

(Leader)

Name: DeMarkus

Gender: Male

Clan: Death

Class: Death Knight - A better version of all three classes, the Death Knight has the combination of the speed of an assassin, the stealth of a ninja, and the power of a dark knight, each downgraded a degree. (This Class is allowed only to DeMarkus. No other Death Clan member may have it.)

Element: Lich

Weapon: DeMarkus's weapon, known as the Apocolypse Blade, is the most versitile weapon in the world. Made entirely of dark matter, at DeMarkus's will, the Apocolypse Blade can be made to turn into any weapon that has been created. It also contains the unique ability of being seperated, and thus it is possible to seperate the Apocolypse Blade into many tiny weapons, such as several throwing knives, or a couple of daggers or short swords.

Appearance: DeMarkus stands at 5'11" tall. The power of his Death magic has greatly changed his original appearance. All of his physical features, the hair on his body, his eyes, all have been turned into a color representing oblivion.

Personality: DeMarkus isn't the happiest of people. He speaks with a monotonous sound to his voice, the voice of a non-caring person who doesn't give a damn about anyone else. He rules the Death Clan with an iron fist, and those who double-cross him always face certain death. He is extremely intolerant of incompetance and insubordination, and his temper easily flares high.

DeMarkus above anything pleasures the demise of living things, and will for no reason go on random masacres of anything from people to animals. This is a favorite past-time of his, and he often does this when he is angered or bored.

History:DeMarkus was born to a family with relations to the Death Clan. His father was an elite warrior in the Death Clan, heir to the previous Leader of the Death Clan. Due to this fact, his father was never around for him. His mother was assassinated by an opposer of the Death Clan, and so he had no real parents.

DeMarkus lived most of his life alone in pain, hating his father and mother for leaving him alone. Utalizing this anger as it slowly turned to rage, DeMarkus trained himself as a ninja, learning their ways and how they killed. Slowly as DeMarkus' training progressed, he began to take after his father. He realized his potention in magic, and so he chose to align himself with the Death Clan.

As DeMarkus continued his training into adulthood, his magic strengthened as well. And with his new Death Clan alliance, his training became more and more advanced, as he also took up the arts of the assassin and the dark knight.

As years passed, a fierce war raged on between the Clans, and DeMarkus had no part in it. In secret he continued his training, until one day he learned a disterbing fact..his father had been killed just several days before by the armies of the Life Clan. DeMarkus's rage exploded, even though he had no care for his father, no love, no feelings at all. He no longer had a soul, he had no remorse for living things, his body was like an empty shell, no morals, no feelings.

A new goal was set by DeMarkus. He would avenge his father's death, by whatever means nessessary..
And he did. Without any means of power at his current rank, DeMarkus needed to do the unthinkable. He needed to assassinate the current Leader of the Death clan and all of his predessessores, and take control. He needed to become the leader.

With this goal in mind, DeMarkus set out on a quest to aquire more power. He heard of the legendary weapon, the Apolcolypse Blade, of which only a few have ever controlled it. After many lives were taken, and many towns were destroyed, the location of the legendary weapon was finally revealed to DeMarkus. DeMarkus demonstrated his power of Death Magic, and a door opened in, of all places, a cave, revealing the hidden chamber of the weapon..it was now his.

With this, DeMarkus went back to the Death Clan. He learned that the Leader had been fataly wounded, and that he was clinged onto life. Now was DeMarkus's chance. And he took it. He broke into the Leader's chamber, killing many members and guards along the way, and murdered him in cold blood. Afterwards killed the Second and Third in command were only slightly harder, because even though their magic towered above DeMarkus's, his skill in combat was greater.

With all three assassinations accomplished, and the Death Clan in termoil, DeMarkus rose up, and took control. This was his clan. His age. And the others will fall.

Reserved 2...

Ariadne stepped out of the shadows and entered the Pandemonium through an underground passage, proceeding through the first level. The name of the Death Clan Headquarters, it suite the building nicely, as she knew this group would be chaos.

She needed to get to the second level. That's where her room was locating. Reaching the elevator she stepped in and pressed the button for level two. The door closed and the elevator made some creaking noises as it traveled to level two.

The doors swung open and she took a step out and began her walk through the halls, while she kept close to the shadows. The training she had encompassed was always with her, even in her street clothes. She felt like she needed to keep watch on everyone, not to trust anyone. There was a pack slung over her shoulders, which carried all of her ninja equipment and apparel.

The walls made of a large gray stone. She moved her fingers against the stone, getting the feel of the cold wall as she kept forward bound. Her black hair was down and flowing loosely down her back. It bounced with each step she took.

Well, thought Selikia, at least he has some style. I do not doubt that it was little more than a simple trick, but the knowledge that such ticks existed might be usefull. She took a quick look around, and headed for the Barton feild exit. She was going on the mission, whether he wanted her or not, and after the mission, she was confident that there would be no doubt as to her value. Taking all her equpment with her might slow, but she didn't want to leave any of it behind in a place she had not investigated. Not time to take precautions, and no assurances. It would be only a minor setback...

((ooc: Just to inform you guys..at the Barton Fields Tunnel Entrance, there is a large door. On it, is pinned a large paper. Large enough to cover the door. It has all of your names on it, and on the top says 'Troops Assigned to the Barton Fields Monster Mission' The door won't open until I get their.))

DeMarkcus jerked his head up from his paperwork (mostly old rejected missions or a papers of information on the new recruits) pile on his desk to the knock on his large black doors. The design carved into them was simply marvolous. Ah, what power can get you..

DeMarkcus checked on his secruity cameras. Well Leena, I see you've finally desided to use the main entrance.. "You may enter, Leena the Cursed One." I really must look her up..that can't be her real name...


Before Leena had even knocked on his door, he had been looking through the history of Selikia. This girl seems to have been troubled...perfect. I love it. She'll be easier to..mold.

DeMarkcus had also been flattering himself about his design in the his room. He had custom made tapestries and portraits of himself on them. The only ones in Pandemonium. He had a gigantic closet filled with hundreds of types of armor, and a seperate one for his cloth, with an even greater quantity. His favorite was the Mythril Chain Mail under some Black Velvet Cloth, but he had hundreds of other combinations that were good too.

On his walls were shelves, mostly empty. He had no real childhood possetions that were dear to him, except for maybe one Grandfather Clock that he kept in the corner of his room, and a large case that safely held China Plates he had collected over the years. A few Black wooden Chairs, a Black Leather Cushion Chair with Wheels behind his desk, and, of course, the desk, accompenied with filing cabinates. There was a spot behind his desk on the wall, simular to the ones used on the overground to get into the underground passages. It creats a doorway to appear that closes behind the person. This doorway leads into a back room that was full held the most powerful weapon on Gaia --- or, atleast he thought it was. The Apocolypse Blade of Dark Matter. The weapon that could become any weapon, the weapon that was indestructible.

DeMarkcus had also recently added another doorway inside the room that held his weapon, which was a passageway into Leena's room..to..keep her in check. Yes. Keep her in check. 3nodding

After Rakinu returns to her surface home she quickly dresses in her stalking attire, a tight fitting pair of black pants that wrapped around her legs showing off their beautifully formed musculature. The pants had small slits cut into them around the hips and middle thigh running toward the crotch but stopping short. Around her luscious breasts was a piece of leather with cloth sewn in for comfort. She grabs her equipment, ten bolts into a pouch on her left thigh, a serrated knife placed delicately between her shoulder blades hilt facing down, and a long sword down the right side of her body, reaching her thigh. She then covers up with a cloak to become a bit less suspicious. It was a mere second in the sunlight before she found herself invisible in the shadows once again.

The cloaked woman maunvers the alleyways carefully, knowing by now where the homeless lay and the beggers pester. She avoids any place that may make it difficult to pass through. Upon reaching the tunnels she traversed to the elevator and adjusts her cloak to show her body and weapons a little. It was a simple measure to show a little strength among her "co-workers."

The elevator doors open and the assassin heads to her room. She generally avoided living here. She made enough money to afford a small house to keep suspicion down. Those that walk the town but don't live in one tend to bring unwanted interest. It was Rakinu's personal philosophy. Besides, the room made for a great hideout if things were to ever go wrong. The room was still empty, save a bed and folded blankets. As usual, Rakinu swiftly turns and heads down the hallways.

She knew there was quite a walk before reaching her mission location. Not that it mattered; none of her footfalls would be heard anyway.
