The Story
Welcome to a strange world, a world full of powerful people, powerful creatures, and powerful magic. At the age of ten everybody in the world of Drei starts their classes with the Sage of their village. The Sage then teaches them very powerful magic, when the students are seventeen years of age he will take them out into the wilderness and assist them in binding a creature. A creature is bound by absorbing it into a magical stone, which can be set in a ring, amulet, bracelet, etc; through a combination of magical spells and the power of the spellcasters spirit. The power of the stone can be used to absorb the creature into the stone or to de-absorb, or release it, whenever the person wills it. Creatures that are bound are a part of the Dreians daily life and occupy the roles of friends, protectors, and allies. Some even use them to battle each other and to prove their strength. While a persons creature fights the person uses their magic to help their creatures and themselves.
However, before obtaining a stone each person has to prove their magical power to their Sage, only once they have proved themselves capable and worthy will he help them to chose a creature and bind it to their stone.
For those that have bound a creature and decided to live through competition they can travel to neighboring villages, towns, amd cities and battle against other combatants, wagers are usually made on a battle prior to its comencement. There are three forms of competition that Combatants should be prepared for. First is Traditional Combat: in Traditional Combat the Combatants call forth their creatures to do battle while they cast spells to aid their creatures or to hinder that of their opponents. Second is Limited Combat: this style of combat is the same as Traditional except that the Combatants agree on a limited number of spells that they may each use prior to combat. Third is Intruder Combat: in this style both Combatants join the battle alongside their creatures, in this style there is no spell restriction.
While journying to other villages, towns, and cities they may also battle against the Sages that they will find there. Should they defeat a Sage they will be rewarded with the mark of that Sage, The marks are generally branded onto a leather scroll, a wooden plaque, or the inside of a spellbook. Once a Combatant obtains twenty marks they are qualified to enter the Annual Combatant Tournament held in The Capitol of Gomeo. This tournament attracts hundreds every year, the number of actual participants is only 64. Those with the highest number of marks are the first to be accepted, if there are over 64 entries with above average numbers of marks those that are tied compete in preliminary matches untill the number is reduced to 64. Since this is the case most Combatants attempt to obtain as many marks as possible before entering the tournament. Those that acheive the right to enter the tournament and that make their way through it to the top 4 are awarded with rare and valuable prizes, such as binding stones, powerful spells, weapons and armors, and money.
Will you choose to be a Combatant, and if so will you be one of the determined few that attain enough marks to earn your way into the National Combatant Tournament and take home the glory and the spoils?

Important Notes
Please read these Notes, they each have an impact on the roleplay, and many are as important as the rules of this roleplay.
Note: Binding When binding the one casting the binding spell must sacrifice part of their own spirit, or soul. This sacrificed soul portion then merges with the creature. This is what tames the creature and ensures their loyalty to their new half. Along with their loyalty it also imbues both the caster of the spell and the recipient with the ability to communicate telepathically (only to each other though). It also makes them to feel much of what the other does, such as emotions, pain, and other sensory receptions.
Note: Incantations Spells are to be cast by focusing magical energies and directing them through the use of Words of Power. These Words are to be Ancient Languages such as Latin, Egyptian, Greek, Roman, or Norse.
Note: World Map When I created the map for this Roleplay, I did not notice that it contradicted my very first post. Thus, in this world, the sun will rise in the North and set in the South.
Note: Translator Free English to Latin/Greek Translator
Note: Spirits I guess I should touch up the subject of spirits as they relate to this RP. There are two types of spirits. There are spirits like Umbra, they are living spirits. They have a body, a soul, and mortal weaknesses such as fatigue, hunger, and death. Then there are the other kind of spirits. They possess a soul, though not one that is capable of being bound, but do not have a body, nor do they suffer from mortal weaknesses. They can interact with the rest of the living world to a certain extent, almost always only through the use of magic though. Just thought I'd clear that up for my own peace of mind...
Note: Spellcasting Any mage that has gone through the proper schooling has, at the least, a generic understanding of magic and an ability to apply it through spells. Basic elemental spells are common, along with other simple spells, like basic light, levitation, enlargement, etc. Things like enchantments are more difficult because they provide a lasting effect, and transmutation and transformation are all highly difficult (enlargement spells sort of fall into this category, as they provide a lasting effect, but since the goal of the spell is to cause no change to the being it is cast on, other than a change in their size, it is still relatively simple). These and other spells that cause very specific and dramatic results are normally Advanced spells(A few examples: invisibility, teleportation, creating a weapon made from an element(especially a non-solid element, meaning earth is easier to manipulate this way), creating illusions, causing status ailments(such as sleep, poison, paralysis, etc.), containing a non-physical element/energy/power in a localized area or making it so that it does not harm it's caster, etc.). Advanced spells are something that mages learn as they go. Most of our mages are pretty young and I've set a limit of 5 advanced spells per person. As the roleplay continues everyones limits will increase.
This does not mean that our characters are limited to only five spells other than basic elements, though. It simply means that they have only committed 5 spells to memory. Most mages carry a spellbook that allows them to cast other advanced spells, even though they have not memorized the incantation and/or theory behind the spell.
Note: Spell Density I was recently asked if there was a difference between casting a spell (something like a beam or blast of some form of energy) from the casters palm and casting from the fingertips. Yes, there is. When a spell is cast from a palm and the same spell is cast from a fingertip using the same amount of energy they deal the same amount of damage, but in different ways. The attack from the palm deals a certain amount of damage over a certain amount of space. The fingertip attack deals the same damage, but since a fingertip is, let's say, about 20 times smaller than a palm it deals all of that damage in a space roughly 1/20th the size. This results in much more intense, localized, damage. Because of the decrease in surface area the spell takes 20 times more concentration to cast though. (This is just a rough example...)
Along with this I should also say that magic of this sort can be cast from almost any part of the body. Magic flows through the body in much the same way that blood does. This is why most mages cast these sorts of spells from their palms. Blood in the palms is close to the surface, and so is magic. When they cast this way it takes less effort to bring their magic forth and utilize it outside of their bodies. This, along with what was previously stated, means that any mage could easily cast a spell from their entire body surface. The spell would deal very little damage over a large surface, though.
Note: Incantations II Azure got me thinking about this, so I thought I'd go a bit more in depth on it for everyone. Anyways, Azure and I were talking about some spells that he had in mind and I had to point something very important out to him. And while I'm at it I thought I'd point it out to everyone else also, since I had never been exceptionally clear on it. Here it is: Magic does what it's told. If a person focuses their magic and says the word "Ignis" it creates fire, just plain basic fire. If they want to create a wall of fire they would have to say "Ignis Parietis". A person cannot will magic to do what they desire. They must tell it what to do. And the more detailed a spell is that they wish to perform, the more detailed the incantation would have to be. Or they would have to utilize incantations more imaginatively.
This leads me to another point. The reason that people in this world use ancient languages to cast their magic is because magic in this world is focused and directed through words (for the most part). If they didn't use separate languages for it then they would accidentally be setting off spells all the time just by communicating with each other. So they use languages that are generally dead and/or forgotten. Not much remains of these languages, and nobody understands them, except at the most basic levels. This means that for the most part people in this world can recite an incantation and use it to cast a spell, but they do not know, exactly, what they just said. This means that they also cannot create new spells without much trial and error or research. Spells are obtained from family and hometown Sages, or through competition. |

IT - Origins Members / Character Profiles
Well, two down and one last one to go. I am still accepting one more application.
PM all applications to me: StoicNinja. All Characters will be Human with magical abilities and, if you wish, various combat skills. No half-human-half-whatevers, none. Also, lately the creatures in applications that I have received have gotten continually larger and larger, I am no longer accepting creatures that are any larger than one ton, and I think that even that is excessive. And, I am no longer accepting characters that are the typical emo, mary sue, or sadist/masochist, as with the creatures I would like some variety. Please post where on their body your character keeps their binding stone. Also, this is a medieval/dark ages style roleplay, probably the most advanced technology would be something like a crossbow or a catapult. Please use this form when submitting your applications:

Occupation: Combatant Hobbies: Martial combat without weapons, horsemanship, archery, clothes making. Likes: The open sky, good friends and storytelling. Dislikes: The neglecting of one’s duty, broken promises and… thunderstorms… Strengths: Vilya’s physical agility, endurance and power are great assets to her, and her quick mind on top of that makes her a formidable opponent. Weaknesses: Vilya can perform very little magic, it was almost too much to manage the sealing spell. Instead she relies on her creature for adept mageskill.

She grew up a warrior and at seventeen managed to seal a creature for her combat partner. *Misc: Weapon of Choice: Two Egyptian scimitars made of the purest steal, folded one hundred times in the forge. Delicate patterns and stylized animals creep their way down each silver-colored blade, which are two feet in length and curve in a delicate arc a hand’s length from the hilt.

He wears hooded, black robes as part of a family tradition. -Shoes: Always refusing to wear shoes or sandals, Damiano prefers wearing his hard-leather travelling boots. -Gloves: Unless in the winter lands Damiano refuses to wear gloves of any kind for he feels they disrupt his ability to cast spells. -Other: Damiano wears a mask over the left portion of his face which happens to be the container for his animal spirit. The mask is silver-plated in such a way that it looks as though it was made of silver scales and the eye-slit is fitted with a transparent amethyst gem. Social Standing: The Partigiano family is not of nobility though they do hold high standings in their home town. Damiano is currently a new member of the Maghi Anima, the order of casters which has been run by his family for centuries. Occupation: Member of the Maghi Anima. Hobbies: Damiano’s hobbies include arts, literature and music. A strong caster, he also enjoys practicing his spells in remote and peaceful locations. Likes: Damiano likes all things of beauty from the smallest flower to the most gorgeous women. He has learned from his own experiences that everything can hold beauty, even creatures or people with horrible scars. Dislikes: Damiano ultimately dislikes those who deny freedom of expression for without expression beautiful things cannot come to pass. Strengths: Strong in magic, especially combat magic, Damiano uses his family’s bloodline to empower himself (if only in spirit). Among his strong points are some of his personality traits, such as chivalry and loyalty. Weaknesses: Where some men may be hardened fighters to such a degree where even a woman in distress cannot sway them from hot-blooded battle, Damiano is a sucker for the ladies. Not only that, but he gains quite a temper when his family or pride are insulted in major degrees. Petty insults do not phase him. Personality: Calm, carefree, keen, and cunning are only some of the words to describe this man’s personality. Damiano is a reserved individual if not by choice then by circumstance. A quick thinker, he is usually able to avoid conflict, or at least come out on top of it. History/Background: Taken from the early age of nine to start is magical training with his grandfather, the village sage, Damiano was first made to spend a year in agony as the ancient family tradition of ritually scarring the flesh vertically above and below his right eye with the words “Maghi Anima” took place. At the age of ten he continued his training until he finally reached the age of seventeen when he could finally bind himself to an animal spirit. Unfortunately, the spirit which had been reserved for him wasn’t an easy one to bind. Damiano spent a year in a coma as the spirit bound itself to him. This dificult and delicate process was the fate of one who tried to possess the spirit of the strong-willed creature known as a dragon. Damiano woke a year later and noted a few minor changes in his appearance. His hair had grown a few silver strands and his eyes had gained amethyst flecks; marks of the struggle to possess his body. He was alive, however, more alive than he had ever felt in his life. he could feel his new half, the dragon within him, its power beating in his heart. Having finally become one, he and his new, loyal companion set out on a person mission to become stronger so he could return one day to take up the mantle of a true Maghi Anima and not some simple initiate. *Misc: Because of the ritual scarring which took over a year to complete, Damiano has a high tolerance to pain. This does not mean he doesn’t get hurt easily, it simply means he won’t notice if he scratches himself or gets a minor cut somewhere. Weapon of Choice: A quarterstaff made of willow's wood.
