Introduction

In a great kingdom called Trandit, a king ruled over his people with great power and respect. This king had three daughters whom he loved very much. Like any princesses would, they grew up in the life of luxury and ease. Spoiled by their parents, they were happy as could be.
They meant the world to their father. They meant so much to him, the king made them the very keys to Trandit's treasuries.
With help from a famed sorcerer the king turn his daughters into living portals leading to his grand treasures. The girls were only little babies and had no idea of what their father did. Should the portals ever open, the princesses would disappear as soon as the person opening the portal return to the real world. When they got older, their father had given them all beautiful gem necklaces, the key to activating the portals inside the princesses. Only the king, the queen and the princesses know this. They were not to happy about being used as such things, but thought it was because their father loved them so much he would en trust the treasures to them. But, they would disappear after they would be used as a portal to the treasure and back? They were a little scared, but soon decided that there would be no one who would figure it out.

However, the neighboring kingdom heard rumors that Trandit had the most beautiful treasures in the world. Piles and piles were hidden deep in the heart of the castle The rumors came with very little detail. So, all that was said was that the princesses were the keys to unlocking the treasure at the heart of the castle. So, three bandits went off to kidnap the princesses and hold them randsome until the king told them where the treasure was hidden in the castle or else the princesses would be killed. Each bandit was assigned a princess to capture and hold hostage. The king could not do a thing. Should he tell the bandits where the treasure is hidden, he would lose his beautiful daughters forever. Either way, he was at a loss. Each bandit was assigned a princess to capture and hold hostage.

Little did the bandits know, the princesses were the very hearts of the castle that the rumors talked about. Should a single drop of their blood fall onto the gem necklace, anyone in the presence of the princess would be taken to a great room with the endless piles of treasure.
While the bandits hold the princesses for randsome, telling the king they will only return them if they are told where the treasure is hidden, the princesses learn more about their kidnappers. Of course, after the bandits capture the princesses, they begin to fall for some of their certain qualities. As the princesses try and negotiate or fight the bandits for their release, they realize that they begin to fall for some of their qualities or their spirit. Will the bandits be able to forget their lust for riches? Going after the treasure would mean their loves would disappear forever.......

The princesses and the bandits:

Kasumi (Youngest Princess) - Atl Hampton
Hazuki (Middle Princess) - Nimbus Hesoma
- Hiaburi Juujihouka

Note: It is a love that is only going to be decided by YOU, but it will only work if you BOTH bother to try...Let's see what will happen when the keys to great treasures are stolen.

Setting

Basically the kingdom of Trandit, the neighboring kingdoms, forests lakes. You can make it up as the role play progresses.

Note #2: There is little magic in the role play! The only real magic used is if the princesses are used to go to the treasure. If you want to use any sort of magic, please send me a pm telling me what you want to do and I will tell you if I approve or not.

Despite her parents' constant warnings about how dangerous the forest is for a young princess, Kasumi never listened and always went out to explore it with.

The Bandits

1.Bandit of the youngest princess
Character Name: Atl Hampton
Age: 18
Weapons: A pair of katana, a pair of sai, and a set of throwing knives.
Personality: Atl is generally a quiet, observant guy. He isn’t very warm and inviting, instead rather cold and silent. He doesn’t seem to care for the lives of those around him. But the truth is, he does. However, he’s seen so much death, agony and pain that he’s learned to numb himself.
Atl feels every emotion anyone else does, he just doesn’t blare it to the world. He likes to watch others in action, picking apart their actions and finding what they’d done wrong, what they could’ve done better. In a way, one could view Atl as complete control. He distances himself, but it polite and educated with his words.
Biography: Atl does not come from a noble family. In fact, his family consists only of himself and his younger brother. Because their parents died when they were children, Atl sold himself in any way possible just to pull in money. Finally, he settled down as an assassin. He’s killed since he was but a boy, doing what another man wanted him to do. Yet, he was kicked out of the ‘gang’ he’d been working for out of the fear that he would kill the leader and take control.
All was fine; Atl had saved up enough money that he and his brother would not go in debt. However, he made the biggest mistake he could make. He fell in love. A sickly young woman of middle class was the person who captured his closed heart. She was a step above Atl and her family would not let her marry him. By this time, Atl and his brother, Muse, had been taken in by a man whose wife had died and whom had never had children.
Now, his adopted father is in debt, the girl he loves is dying and his brother is becoming a young man. Atl has nothing to give and he so desperately wants to give these people the world. So, he set out to find Trandit’s rumored treasure.
User name: ShadowShinigami13
Appearance: Atl
Which princess do you intend to kidnap: Youngest

2.Bandit of the middle princess

Character Name: Nimbus Hesoma
Age: 19
Weapons: Broad sword and daggers.
Personality: Nimbus is an unusually easy-going person. He doesn't like to see people get hurt and lives his life and challenges every problem in his life for the greater good. Though he is relatively lenient if something makes him angry or ticks him off to much he can get moody and sometimes violent.
Biography: Nimbus did not originally join the bandits out of any friendship for them. He does not like the idea of stealing, but continues to strive for the greater good, which is what he believes he will achieve by going after the princesses. Despite this he has not told any of his comrades what he has done with the money he has procured thus far, but he appears to send it of to some old place. An old home perhaps?
User name: Sho-Shonojo
Appearance: A sketch of him.
Which princess do you intend to kidnap (Eldest, middle, or youngest?):Middle

3.Bandit of the eldest princess

Character Name: Hiaburi Juujihouka
Age: 23
Weapons: two tessen, a meteor hammer, and a chain whip
Personality: Hiaburi is a licentious, baleful bandit – spending most of his time at the local bar, getting completely drunk and spending the night with the hottest person around. He has been known to eat as much food as he can afford, kill anybody who pisses him off, steal what he wants, and just be a general, all-together sinner. Despite this fact, he is a fairly intelligent person, just lacks a great amount of forethought. If anything that matters to him is on the line – he can come up with intricate plans to get what he wants, usually involving killing everybody on the way. He is sadistic and cunning, above all else, relishing in the pain of others and deceitful to no end. Not many people trust him, and he doesn’t trust many people.
Biography: Hiaburi was born and raised to a noble family, living the life a noble until he was fourteen. It was in this year when bandits, not unlike himself in the present, raided his home and murdered his parents. Him and his younger sister were given a choice to join them, becoming servants to begin with, or to be killed as well. His sister, naïve as she was, chose death over becoming a murderer – but Hiaburi valued his own life far too much. During his years with the bandits that murdered his family, he lost his view on the world – becoming just as destructive and manic as his band, losing his desire to save his own skin in favor of annihilating others. However, he still held a blood lust against them, if only for destroying his childhood and taking away his riches, and murdered them three years ago. Since then, he has traveled from band to band, mostly doing assassination work and having a good time.
User name: [double] [NEGATiiVE]
Appearance: Hiaburi stands just a bit over six feet, with tanned skin, rugged, shoulder-length black hair, and cold aubergine eyes. He wears steel, fingerless gauntlets with sharp blades extending from the knuckles. Both of his upper arms have snake tattoos circling around up to the shoulder. Around both of the gauntlets, two chain whips are wrapped around loosely for easy carrying capabilities, while his meteor hammer's chain is wrapped around his right shoulder and over his chest and back (the spiked ball hanging loosely at his side). He wears no shirt, revealing a variety of scars and tattoos across his chest and back - a Chinese dragon across his back and an eccentric pattern of kanji and Celtic symbols across his muscular chest. He wears loose-fitting pants and heavy boots - both in black leather with a large amount of metal attached to them. Hiaburi wears a belt that can hold his tessen, hanging from his waist with little care, but he only really uses it when he is carrying something else.
Which princess do you intend to kidnap?: eldest

((My first post!))


Sun poured in from the window onto Princess Kasumi's bed. Sounds of birds singing could be heard. Her eyes fluttered open and she sat up. Kasumi was the youngest of the princesses. She was always the first up before her siblings. A bright early bird as her mother put it. Kasumi was always one to enjoys the raising sun and the songs of the birds singing their morning songs. Nature was one of her favorite things. That is why, today, she will be sneaking out of the castle once again for a short stroll in the forest not to far from the castle.

Kasumi pulled the covers off of her and slid out of bed. The hard stone floor was cold on her bare feet. It startled the rest of sleep from her eyes. She quietly tiptoed over to her dresser. In a quiet hurry, Kasumi slipped out of her night wear and into her favorite dress. It was long and light blue. Beautiful designs of gold were scattered evenly all around it. It was very expensive and one of the best her personal tailor had made. She had scarf-like fabric sitting on top of the dresser and threw it around her shoulders. She pulled it up over her head so no one would realized it was her sneaky away from her home. Her dress did make her seem slightly conspicuous, but she didn't think anyone would be up this early to see her. She picked up her light blue slipper-like shoes in her hands. She would put them on once she was outside so as not to make to much noise. Before leaving the room, Kasumi remembered to make sure her necklace was in it's place. Right there, the blue gem shone beautifully around her neck as usual. It never left, just as she and her siblings had promised their parents.

Her door opened a crack and Kasumi stuck her head out into the hall way to see if anyone was coming. To the left. No one. To the right. Nope. It was all clear. This was going to be easy. She walked with a quick pace, but silently down the hall, her small, bare feet making soft padding noises. The castle was dark. The servants hadn't gotten up yet to light the halls. Kasumi found the stair case that would lead her to the bottom floor. She almost flew down the stairs because she was going so fast. She slowed down as she reached the last step. Kasumi looked around. No one was there. She stepped out onto the clean marble floor and made a dash for the door. Slowly, she opened and and slipped out. YES! She did it! Once again, Kasumi had made her escape. Her parents told her it was forbidden to go out into the forest. There were awful beasts and evil men who would steal her awya. That's what her parents had warned, yet not once did Kasumi ever get hurt except for a tiny scratch or two on a branch from a bush or tripping over a root.

((Question! Is this guild completely dead or something?))
PostPosted: Thu Apr 26, 2007 7:25 pm


Nimbus was leaving the town in a fowl mood. The town guard had removed him for being a vagrant but he had done nothing of the sort. Just yesterday he had set up shop on the streets selling meats at a fair price, he had even made them higher so they wouldn't seem so suspicious. Even so the town's people talked and the guards had come to him with suspicions that the goods were stolen. It was true that he may have crossed onto a farmers land and killed the animals, but he was the one who had stripped them, cleaned them, and cut them into fine slices of meat. Of course there were those that didn't know talent when they had seen it.

So the guards had managed to conviscate the wares. With nothing left to occupy his time with Nimbus had strolled through the town but even then it wasn't enough to just be out of his way. He supposed it was the way he was dressed, mostly in rags that barely kept the cold out. That combined with the daggers at his waist that he took no time to conceal and the fact that his wanderings took him past the castle several times where he would stare for a good while. No, it really wasn't a surprise that they had requested he leave.

Nimbus chuckled to himself as he walked down the warn path back to the woods where he was currently living. It didn't matter that they had made him leave for he had already seen what he needed to. He wondered how long it would be before the other two arrived, there was really a great deal he wanted to inform them of, that and he was ready to get this over with.

Hazuki opened her eyes to see how early it was and rolled over, deciding to go back to sleep. She loved getting up early, but she knew that Kasumi did too, and she also knew that her younger sister had a habit of sneaking out of the castle. Hazuki cared very much for her younger sister and didn't want to ruin her escape plans, and so back to sleep she went.

If her sister did not return by a certain time of morning, Hazuki was always the one to be awake to await her return or to sneak out herself to go make sure Kasumi was safe. Hazuki rolled over and buried her face deeper into her soft pillow, feeling her necklace resting against her chest.
While her sister's necklace was blue, Hazuki's was the color of green aventurine. The color green suited herself, she thought. It was a bright and happy color full of energy but it also had a feel of ancient knowledge about it, and as Hazuki spent so much time reading she did indeed posess some ancient knowledge... as well as great confidence in herself and her abilities.

It had seemed that much time had passed, and Hazuki was worried that her sister wasn't returning. Getting up as quietly as she could, Hazuki crossed her room to begin to get dressed to search for Kasumi. As she opened her dresser, she searched for what was hidden at the bottom... Peasant's clothes.

They came in handy at times like these, especially since they were baggy male peasant clothes and concealed her small chest well. After she was dressed, Hazuki suck out in the same manner she imagined her sister would, taking care to avoid the areas she knew servants would be at this time.

((I guess I could do an opening post))

Hiaburi looked at the flower patch that he'd wandered into, somewhere deep in the forest, glaring harshly at the bright colored plants that had sprouted out of the grass and dirt. Fingering the buckles on his fans, taking them off his belt and spinning them into opening, and smirking down at the innocent wildlife. Leaning down, he pulled a rose from the bush and smelled the sweet scent distinct to the flower, before holding the two tessen out at a good distance, spinning his body around to cut the flowers down in their prime.

"Bloody flower, 'tis a shame that ye weren't black, I might 'ave spared ye," he said to nobody in particularly, clicking the iron fans to his belt before continuing through the woods, looking for one of his younger allies. It didn't take him long to recognize the kinder (and if the Juujihouka were to say anything, prettier) bandit walking through the forest. Running in front of him with his usual sadistic look on his face and his arms crossed, "'ello mate!"

Nimbus was forced to take a step back in surprise from the man who had come running through the brush over to him. He didn't like showing such signs of weakness, but it couldn't be denied that Hiaburi was indeed an imposing figure.

"Ah, Hiaburi, I'm glad you ran into me. I was just looking for you." He said before looking around the perimeter. There was no one around but he switched to a tone of voice that wouldn't carry so well through the trees, "I've been hangin around Trandit's castle. I think it may disappoint you to hear this but I think capturing the princesses is going to be easier than we ever intended."

"God damn, that takes out the fun," Hiaburi said, practically pouting in discontent, "Perhaps we should make it harder for ourselves, just for fun..." he began, but knew the other two bandits wouldn't go for something like that. None the less, it sounded like a much more entertaining plan of action. He sighed, looking back up into Nimbus' eyes, examining them for a brief moment before finishing off, "But I guess if it'll be easy, then we can do it soon, yeah?"
