Wrath of the Beholder OCC

[Lansfirestar]

Just coming back from nowhereville... anyway, I am hoping for a group of literate writers who enjoy a good dose of literate adventure and a healthy dose of sex in between.

BRIEF PREMISE
The Beholder, is a brutal warlord from the ancient past who ruled the land of Novus, who ruled with an iron fist, killing any who dared to oppose him. In time, a six heroes rallied the people of Novus in opposing the Beholder and his army. After numerous battles, the heroes and their army stood at the gates of the Beholder's castle. There the heroes fought the Beholder in a heated and climactic battle that lasted for many days, until finally, the heroes managed to defeat the Beholder, but before they could deal the fatal blow, the Beholder cast an ancient curse at one of the heroes and vowed that one day he would return. The heroes left the castle, proclaiming victory against the tyrant, Beholder, but paid little heed to the Beholder's warning.

A thousand years have passed, and the Beholder's name has become a mere bedtime story to scare the children, but unknown to all, one of the descendants of the cursed hero has been having strange horrific nightmares and is slowly losing himself to the madness within.

NEEDED
I need writers who are "talented" enough to play the individuals who act as the the descendants of the "Heroes of Novus". They can choose to be the descendants of the heroes or their own personal heroes. They should NOT be god mode, and will face the minions of the Beholder, while mingling the populace of Novus.

OTHER INFORMATION
There are six great cities and numerous villages, the name of the great cities are still debatable while the villages, you are free to make up your own village names.

NEED WRITERS

Emeric Dax

Name: Emeric Dax
Age: 25
Profession: Mercenary and solider
Appearance: http://ui19.gamespot.com/1714/cecil_2.jpg
Background:

Emeric Dax had never been the largest of men, nor strongest, or even the fastest, but his was a voice of confidence. When he spoke others, tended to listen, for he always gave great care to his words. It was for that reason that Emeric had chosen the life of a solider and mercenary. The world was fraught with orcs, goblins, trolls, and giants, all a possible threat to mankind. If you looked at Emeric, you wouldn't be able to say right away what it was about him that drew others to him, but if you asked he'd gladly tell you that he was a far-off descendant of the great Jedrek Dax, the legendary leader of old who lead to the downfall of The Beholder. Emeric has acted as much in that heroes image as any, always seeking to unite the people against this cause or that, taking part in the few major battles that have occurred in his short life. Emeric rose quickly within any group he took part in, rising to officer with months, and quickly earning the trust and respect of his men. He knew not if he would ever be needed for a cause so great as the one his ancestor had fought, but he swore to himself, that if it be in his time that this threat rose, he would stand to fight it as Jedrek has a thousand years before him.

Name: Lans Storm
Age: 19
Profession: Militia & Swordsman
Background:

Lans never enjoyed killing nor did he enjoy fighting, but despite that he was rated by the militia he served under as the best swordsman in Lahan. Participating only in minor skirmishes in protecting Lahan and staying away from any major battles near the village, helped in preserving Lans identity, because although he lived in Lahan, he was never born there. As one of the descendants of group of heroes who vanquished the Beholder, he was destined for great things but unlike his ancestor, he chose a life of seclusion and anonymity, content in living in peace. He lived in Lahan, day by day, never striving for anything except for the happiness of his village friends, but fate wove a cruel fate for those whose bloodline sprung from the demise of the Beholder.

(EDITOR'S NOTE: I'VE BEEN SICK WILL POST THE SIX CITIES AND ANY OTHER INFORMATION SOON)

Maya Cross

Name: Maya Cross
Age: 18
Profession: Citizen
Background:

Maya was always the curious kind, always wandering around the little forest near her village pretending she was a great hero. Her foster parents always thought that she would grow out of it one day, but it never did. She frequently dreamed of becoming an adventurer, like one of the heroes of the old, she especially loved the one about how a band of heroes defeated the beholder, little did she know she had more in common with them than she thought. At night she usually locked the door to her room, and blew out the candles, she borrowed her foster-brothers breeches usually, for it was far easier to move in them. And with the candles blown out she would escape into the world of the night, where she found out she could do things normal girls could not, she learned she could easily scale buildings for she instinctively knew where all the good handholds are, and that she could move around so quietly that no one could spot her. Day by day, she went out, and found she got better and better. Then one day she sneaked into the swordfighting academy that her dad owned, and by peeking at how the best of the fighters faught, she quickly learned their moves, and though she wasnt the strongest, nor the most strategic, she was able to best most of the boys her age. This went on for a while until she was caught by her father and banned from the academy, where instead she practiced with an old man, one of the veterans of some unknown war he always talked about, and unbeknownst to her he was one of the great heroes from the original fight agianst the beholder who came back from the dead to train, and watchover his one and only decendant, and when he sensed his blood flowing within her veins, he knew he had to prepare her for the beholder's wrath. Then the day came when she turned 18, and by that time she was a beautiful maiden, little did she know, it was also the day when great troubles will present themselves to her.

MAIN CITIES
CRESCENT CITY
- A city built within a crescent shaped mountain range. Was founded by Jedric Dax weeks after the defeat of the Beholder, it was created with the aid of the dwarves, elves, draconians, and human carpenters, thus it is the crown jewel of all the races and is the capital of all races. Although Crescent City was ruled by humans, Jedric Dax upon his death, bestowed the creation of a Council of Races, making Crescent City a city for all races with no barriers between races. Crescent City is a testament to the esteemed wisdom of the Council who stand united against any who threaten the peace and prosperity of Novus.

OUTLINE
The Beholder, a brutal warlord who ruled Novus through fear and destruction. He enslaved the world of Novus and its citizens, crushing any who dared to oppose him. Among the citizens of Novus, six individuals rose up from the oppressed people and stood united against the armies of the Beholder. Together they rallied the people of Novus in a fight for their freedom from the tyrant. The fighting was long and hard, many sacrifices were made and lives were lost but still they fought on. They fought for the freedom in which they envisioned for Novus. As the armies of the Beholder were defeated at every corner of Novus, the Beholder himself turned to the dark arts for assistance. As the armies of the free people marched towards the stronghold of the Beholder, the Beholder himself studied the dark magics and bound himself deeper into the abyss of chaos. As the heroes of Novus entered the stronghold of the Beholder, they fought through many horrific creatures which the Beholder summoned in order to stop them. As they battled through the stronghold of the Beholder, they came upon the throne room where the Beholder waited for them. As the six heroes fought against the Beholder, he was able to cast a spell on one of the heroes before he succumbed to death. As he was about to die, he swore that he would return one day and bring death and destruction to those who fought against him upon his return.

As the years passed by, the army of Novus continued to destroy the remaining armies of the Beholder, until they achieved their goal... freedom from the Beholder. A thousand years have passed since the death of the Beholder, and the people of Novus has long since forgotten the carnage and brutality their ancestors once experienced. With the absence of the Beholder, their common enemy, many of the races fought against each other to strengthen their power. But unknown to all... the return of the Beholder is near at hand.


MAJOR RACES
Humans
Elves
Orcs
Draconians (Humanoid Dragons)

(The six heroes who led the army of Novus, will be posted soon, as soon as relevant information will be taken.)

(Notice to all who joined, please bear in mind that the characters that you are roleplaying are those only considered as the PUREST descendants of the six, because we all know that 1000 years of breeding tends to distort the bloodline)
