This is attempt 2 at an RP on my part. I think it's cool, though, so....

*STORYLINE: Six warriors from six different eras and places in history are plucked from their time and end up on a mysterious island full of hidden dangers. Now they must find a way to return to where and when they belong. This can only be achieved by using their skills and cooperating, while unlocking secrets, dodging attacks, and learning to live with one another.

*RULES:I have very few guidelines for this thread. All I ask is that you keep it PG-13 (wouldn't want this locked, would we?) and enjoy it. There are technically only six spots open, but I hate to exclude, so I won't mind if more people than that want to join in. Your character should be either one you've made up or an actual historical figure. Just don't make them really uber (I.E. A titan from ancient Greece, any kind of god, etc. I don't care if they have supernatural powers, but let's keep it within reason, okay?). Also, THIS IS NOT AN ACCURATE HISTORICAL REPRESENTATION. It's fiction, okay? Have fun with it. Take my character for instance. She's a female samurai named Jade. That is not historically accurate at all, but we're not here to write a history book, are we? And yes, our characters CAN understand each other. No need to make your character bilingual (unless you really want to). We're just going to assume that we can all communicate, just for simplicity's sake. Other than those few rules, all I can say is be respectful of everyone, be creative, and HAVE FUN.

***My Character****

*Name: Jade Hisui
*Place/Era: Feudal Japan, around the Edo Period.
*Age: 24
*Apperance: Sage green kimono w/ magenta lotus patterns that perfectly outlines her flawless hourglass figure. Has almost iridescent peridot green eyes. Ebony hair tied up in a bun, held in place by two jade hair quills. Keeps a katana, which she has dubbed Sakura, tied inside her kimono for easy access.
*Background: Villiage was destroyed by evil empire. She was the soul survivor. Trained to be a samurai to avenge her villiage. Has an attitude, yet is polite untill you make her mad. She is very skilled in sword fighting, and can move pretty fast. A bit disturbed by memories of her past (she was twelve when the place was destroyed), but doesn't let that affect her too much.

*****************First Post*******************

Jade sat up and looked around. She was in a misty clearing with moss covered rocks. She last remembered chasing Tengu through the forest, and now she was here. Where was here, anyhow? It was ghostly quiet..like a graveyard, and a slight chill hung on the air, clinging to her skin like a leech. She thought she saw a faint, pale glow around her, like a barrier of some sort.

"Wierd." She thought. Then she heard a sound behind her...

((This RP sounds very interesting, Miasma...I think I shall join. ))

Name: Isaac Faroe

Age:26

Era: Feudal Japan

Description: Isaac is about 5'9". He has light brown hair, and wears a blue tunic with dark blue leggings. He wears a red scarf, and has a sword sheath containing his large sword on his back.

Background: Isaac was a widely-known mercenary. He was very skilled with the Claymore, his large sword, although it puts his fighting speed at medium. He was hired to do numerous jobs by different groups of people, all seeking his expert swordsmanship for protection.

---------------------------------------------------

Isaac yelled as he brought his head up. He was sweating frantically. He looked around, and saw only rocks. There was some thick fog around him. And then he remembered what happened...

Isaac was hired to guard a group of miners while they mined strange materials. Unfortunately, a large group of bandits attacked, and Isaac was outnumbered. They ganged up on him and pushed him into a deep mine shaft; sending him to his doom. As Isaac hurdeled into the darkness, he lost conciousness.

And now he had regained it and was obviously not in a mine shaft. Still nervous, Isaac slowly stood up and checked his body. No broken bones. No misplaced limbs. No cuts. No wounds. No damage at all. Isaac checked his equipment. Lost everything except my sword...well, better to be armed with a weapon then be unarmed with only supplies and be attacked in this strange place.

Isaac decided to try and find out where he was. He began looking around...

((Um..Guess I'l join in! XD))

Name: Teresa Faust

Age: 23

Era: Midieval Times/ Middle Ages

Description: Teresa stands at around 5'8 and has long ebon hair, and purplish sapphire blue eyes. She wears black chest and shoulder armour, has black pants and black steel-toed boots, and a black cape and shirt. She has a sheath on her belt that contains Sieglinde. Her horse has a sheath thingy atttached to her saddle that holds her lance.

Backround: Teresa was a noble knight of England, and was skilled with Sieglinde, her sword, and Serain, her lance. She often participated in wars and jousting with her black stallion, Dark Thunder.

=====================================

Teresa looked about calmly. "Well, Dark, looks like we're not in England anymore.." Moss and the thick scent of fog filled the air. "Ughh..Whatever happened to that knight? I was about to get him..what'll they do.? I'll lose my honor.." She hopped off of her stallion and unsheathed Sieglinde. "Might as well be ready.."

Jade got to her feet and unsheathed Sakura with a metallic grind that echoed in the misty void. She faced the foliage from which the noise was originating. It was a rustling sound, accompanied by the occasional crack of twigs snapping. Someone was heading her way, and fast. She crept up to the trees with no more noise than a panther hunting its next kill, and waited. The sound stopped.

"That's got to be a Tengu." she thought, her eyes flashing with hatred toward the nomadic demons of which she spoke. She raised her sword, took steady aim, and slashed away the branches with a single fluid motion as graceful as an eagle's flight. The unfortunate foliage fell away with a rustle, and Jade's left eyebrow raised at what she saw. "That's not a Tengu." she thought with intrigue....

((Sounds like fun, I

Please remember to follow the rules and submit your RP idea to be first accepted by the mods in the Roleplay Applications thread. After you follow through with that, I will unlock this. Thank you.

Edit: Unlocked. Have fun!

The samurai really wasn't in the mood to fight. Her curiosity overcame her apprehension, and thinking quickly she tried to diffuse the situation. She held up her hand in a sign of peace.
"Hey now," she said, her gaze unwavering, "I don't want trouble. You just suprised me, that's all. I simply need some answers." The samauri looked the man up and down. "By the way," she added "I didn't catch your name. And do you know where we are?"

"Nice to meet you, Spence," Jade replied, giving a little bow, "My name is Jade. I honestly can't tell you how I got here, though." She sighed, rubbing her aching head. "I was chasing after these forest demons called Tengu after they stole some food off me as I slept, and I suddenly felt myself lift off the ground. Everything got wavy like heat rising from the ground during a hot summer day, and then simply melted away. When I opened my eyes, I was lying on my back over there." She pointed through the trees. "Strange, though," she said almost to herself as she gazed around suspiciously at the ominous setting that surrounded them, "This is definitely not the forest I was just in. This seems almost...surreal. Anyway, what do you say we stick together and have a look around? Safety in numbers, you know? Besides, maybe we'll find a clue as to where the heck we are."

Jade's eyes got kind of a far-off twinkle in them, a sad glimmer of bitterness that was quickly stifled. In a misty voice she said

"No, I try to steer clear of that kind of thing. The warriors who destroyed my villiage and it's inhabitants when I was twelve use some kind of shadow magic. Pure evil, that's what it was. Darker than malice, more lethal than sin." Then her thoughts flickered to the sword in her sheath. "The only hint of magic that I own is my sword. Somone gave it to me when I was a little girl. That was almost thirteen years ago, and I haven't had to hone it once. Still sharp as the day it was placed in my hands..." She stopped suddenly, and listened close to a very faint sound beyond the trees. "Do you hear that?" She whispered softly to her accomplice...

((I'll edit if you want me to Flannery, but I'm going with the current form.))

___________________________________________________________
Diseh was running on foot from the police and darted into a dark alley. He kept running and jumped over boxes and trash that littered the alley. He then lept at a fence that blocked the way and climed the rest of the way up. At the the top he stayed there until he heard them then he jumped, but got caught in the fence and fell onto his back and landed on the cemente. Diseh blacked out... he woke up on grass surrounded by trees. "Where am I?"..."Wasn't I just in...." Diseh heared a faint sound. "???" He went tword the sound...

[Out of character: Ooh, nice twist, Disehmoh.]

"There's someone coming through those bushes." Jade reported in a hushed voice. She turned to Spence. "Maybe we should...." her voice trailed off when the foliage before them parted...

Diseh jumped through the bushes and pulled out his staff. "Who the bloody hell are you... and where are we?" Diseh looked at jade. "Are yall going to a teaparty, with a pip sqeak magician?"

((I felt needed to change my post, sorry everyone.))

Jade had already unsheathed her sword and held it threateningly at the newcomer. She was only five foot four inches tall, and she assumed the short joke was at her expense, despite the "magician" part of the statement. Besides, you mess with an ally of Jade's, you'd better either duck or run away.

"Say that again, and I'll cut you down an inch or two yourself!" She spat.

Teresa turned abrubtly. She heard voices, and not far from here. She led Dark from the reins towards the sound, then stood bhind a tree, nervous. She listened to the snippets she could hear, and kept her hand on Sieglinde, the knight turning calmer with what she heard. " Meh..nothing bad...if thy attack, I'll be ready..So far, it looks like a bunch of weirdos.." She muttered.

Spence

Teresa froze, and stared at Dark in horror as he whinnied. She lept out froom behind the tree and unsheathed Sieglinde halfway, purplish eyes serious. She just stood tere, as she was at a loss fr words, seeing the many different warriors. " B-Blast.." She whispered, noticing that if she made a wrong move, she was aas good as dead. "Err..Hi..?"

Jade raised an eyebrow, sword still held in a defensive stance.
"This is becoming quite a party." she remarked. "I believe introductions are in order here." She let down her sword, but never her guard, and gazed around at everyone. "I am Jade Hisui of Benten." she reported with a small bow of greeting, though her peridot eyes never left the others.

"Err..." Teresa sheathed Sieglinde and said," I'm Miss Teresa Faust, Knight of England. I was in the middle of a joust when..When Dark and I got sent here, somehow..I was unconsious, I fdoo remember that.."

Diseh put his hand on his staff ready to pull, but looked at everyone. "Hmmm knight ehhh, well I aint no knight, magician, nor a samauri by the looks of your sword and outfit there miss. I am Diseh, I abandonded my last name when my family was killed. Well now I didnt know the English still practiced jousting, is it for more of festival use? So samauri is that getup for more ceramonial use or for a play?"
Diseh looked at Spence and thought it was too easy, but arogantly did it anyways. "Hey magician.... you do uhhhh any magic tricks? Diseh cracked a smile then burst into laughter.

Spence wanted to smack Diseh over the head, but forced himself to stay calm.
Spence lowered his head and said in a sad, yet dark voice,

"It's fine." Jade replied. "The woman who gave me my sword was a priestess. She's saved me from certain death on more than one occasion, too, seeming to always be in the right place at the right time. I know not all magic is evil, I just am very wary of it. It's not something to be lax about, after all..." Suddenly, she turned and sliced an oncoming arrow in half as it flew out of the trees at her. "Who shot that?! Did anyone see where it came from?" She set her green eyes ahead in angry determination. "Something isn't right about this. Something deadly."
