LORE
In a parallel universe lies the planet Terralheim, which is nothing but a giant ball of oxygenated atmosphere several times larger than Jupiter. It is part of its own solar system, orbiting around twin stars and having five moons (due to Terralheim's weak magnetic field, its moons occasionally drift inside the planet's atmosphere). As there is absolutely no ground in this giant planet, civilization instead lives on floating islands. Humans exist here, along with alien animal species exclusive to the planet. Human civilization dubs the region they live in Aether, though it is also commonly known as the Sky.
There are two types of clouds that exist in Aether. The first is a special type of cloud that can be used as a foundation for a settlement. Indeed, some Aetherians have entire cities atop clouds, though the clouds must be carefully modeled and hardened enough to carry a lot of buildings. These clouds are known as Cumulo Fundamentum.
The second type of cloud is aptly known as Sky Water. This cloud has the same properties as water, and therefore can be swum in. Sometimes there are entire oceans made of Sky Water, and ships must be built to travel on them. Pirates often sail these seas. However, there are deadly carnivorous sea creatures that lurk inside the Sky Water clouds, so people must take caution if they are to travel through them.
At the very center of the planet lies a dark region known as Limbo, or the Abyss. Limbo is impossible to see from the naked eye due to the planet's immense size. It is the place where a dark people known as the Limbonians live. They look similar to humans, but have thorny deer-like antlers sprout from their heads (in Limbonian custom, the one with the largest pair of antlers is considered the strongest warrior and leading figure in Limbo, known as the Roc). They have a mysterious hatred for the Aetherians, and sometimes travel up to the Sky and ransack villages and cities, and sometimes even making floating islands plummet to the Abyss. Once a human enters Limbo, he or she can never get out.
Aetherians and Limbonians make prominent use of special stones known as prisms. They resemble rocks about the size of your hand that are covered with a different colored gemstone that matches its purpose. There are different types of prisms that are used for a specific task. Here is a small list of prism examples:
Thermal Prism: When used, this prism heats up to a high temperature, and is popular with chefs for boiling soups. It can be used in weapons and tools to make them light on fire.
Chill Prism: Can be used to freeze things. Often used to cool food in a refrigerator-like fashion.
Shock Prism: A prism with the properties of electricity. It can be used to power electrical appliances.
Jet Prism: A prism used for propulsion. It can be placed in engines inside vehicles to move at high speeds.
Speed Prism: This type of prism is used to enhance a human's speed, though the effects last for only a minute.
Power Prism: This prism enhances the user's strength, and like the speed prism, lasts for one minute.
Energy Prism: These prisms are the reasons that the floating islands...well, float. They are usually well guarded underneath the island.
Limbonians have access to a special object similar to prisms, but are only used for warfare. They are special vines wrapped around their arms and legs to power that body part up. These vines are known as Runes.
MINERALS, SPECIES, AND LOCATIONS
Terralheim is home to many different minerals and elements that are not seen on Earth. Some stones have precious value, and can be sold for a lot of scales (the currency used in Aether that originated from the scales of the mythical Millennial Dragon. 10 scales is equivalent to $1). Because of their popularity, miners working in quarries on floating islands are prominent. Here is a list of examples:
Gol: Gol is a rare mineral that costs 100,000 scales a pound. Coincidentally, its appearance is similar to that of the Earthen element gold. Many grand buildings are built with this metal.
Blackstone: A metallic alloy that is nearly indestructible and very heavy as well. It serves as the perfect metal to create chains that link floating islands together. Blackstone can be found in Aether, but it much more populated in Limbo.
Xardium: An element that is as strong as steel. All melee weapons in Aether are made with this trusty metal.
Nethershard: A highly fragile mineral found in Limbo. The Nethershard is said to contain demons, and if it is broken, the demons will escape and possess everything in its vicinity. It is often praised by the Limbonians as a last resort in an attack.
Here is a list of some species and living things found in Terralheim:
Aetherian: The most common species, it's basically a human. They live in the Sky.
Limbonian: Beings with with a dark nature, they despise the Aetherians and live in the Abyss. They sport antlers on their heads. It is rumored that the Limbonians hate the Aetherians because Terralheim was originally their homeland, and were banished to the center of the planet, the Abyss.
Kryyok (pronounced kree-AWK): A large transportation bird that is 10 feet in length and easily tamable, making it a popular domestic pet. It resembles a cross between a falcon and a pelican. They each have a distinct color and pattern on their feathers, and every Aetherian has one.
Chimera: A type of Limbonian animal; its appearance is that of a large tiger, completely colored black, and with large black wings that sprout from its sides. They can also breathe fire. Only Limbonians can tame them.
Jangue: These carnivorous sharks inhabit some of the Sky Water clouds. They are large sharks that are blue with yellow stripes and can eat five people in a single bite. On the bright side, they taste really good.
Wimpop: An Aetherian domestic animal that looks like a mix between a somewhat-large ferret and a red panda. They are very loyal to their master, though they can get vicious if attacked.
Golem: These ancient automatons are the creation of a past civilization that are found in ancient ruins. They can be reactivated by means of an energy prism, and are used to help people carry out tasks, most notably in quarries to haul heavy minerals.
Here are some of the more notable locations in Aether:
Trimarine: The capital city of all of Aether, and where the headquarters of the Aetherian Republic resides. Merchants come here to sell foods and goods, and a Kryyok farm is located here as well.
Gild Base: The largest military base in Aether. This is where warriors learn to use weapons, prisms, and Kryyoks for combat uses. A Colosseum-like building found in ancient ruins is used here as a training ground and stadium.
Opolis Clear: A city on top of a Cumulo Fundamentum cloud. It is home to the world's largest library and planetarium. Aether's top scientific geniuses meet here once every month to discuss scientific matters about the weather, interstellar phenomena, etc.
Ocean Square: A port town where sky ships are built to sail Sky Water clouds. Nearby is Cloud Beach, a popular relaxation area.
Ecelbarg: A floating island district. This is where humble beginnings begin...as least for the most part.
Eagleye (Eagle + eye): A city inside a giant space station-like building. This is where Aether's top machinery and technology manufacturer, Pacifico Corp., is located. There are also a number of fantastic restaurants for hungry tourists.
Ancient ruins on top of floating islands are seen as well. Inside the old ruins and temples, strange glyphs are written on the walls, but no one has been able to decipher them yet. They are rumored to contain Terralheim's lost history and the true cause of the war between the Aetherians and the Limbonians.
Limbonian locations:
Yurgard: The capital city (and pretty much the only city) of Limbo that is several times larger than Trimarine, the Aetherian capital. This is where most Limbonians live. Some smaller villages lay directly outside the city boundaries.
Temple Limbo: This is a temple that fell from Aether many years ago, and was reconstructed as a place for Limbonians to pray. This is where the great Limbonian warrior Axelion rests in peace, and warriors bid him homage before going to war so that they may be blessed by his spirit.
Zero Gaol: It is named that because there is a 0% chance of escape. It is a large prison where intruding humans are kept for the rest of their lives. However, they can choose to be sacrificed to the Roc, or swear allegiance to the Limbonians and become one as well under their dark influence.
Swordyal: The military base where Limbonians are taught warfare with Chimeras, prisms, and runes, as well as different forms of elemental magic and alchemy.
Shadow Forest: This mysterious forest is the breeding ground for chimeras. It's usually a place where Limbonians spend time alone meditating, or to train. Spirits dwell in the trees here, and Limbonians have the ability to communicate with them.
Fire Mountain: Far away from Limbonian civilization sits a large dormant volcano that erupts every 1000 years. However, a deadly secret lies inside...
WEAPONS
Prisms can be inserted into special slots in weapons to give them the properties that the prisms were based on.. Here is the list of weapons used in the roleplay:
Broadsword: A melee weapon used by Aetherians. They can be pretty powerful, though their swings aren't very fast.
Katana: Another melee weapon used by Aetherians. The sword itself is light, making it good for fighters who like to fight with speed.
Pole weapons: Spear (light, can also be twin-bladed), Lance (medium), Javelin (heavy), Jitte, and Naginata. All these are used by Aetherians, and are sometimes attached onto Kryyoks.
Bazooka: This is a projectile weapon powered by a thermal prism that is used to fire lethal bursts of flame. It is used by Aetherians.
Staff: These long staves are wielded by Limbonians, and since they are made of blackstone, users must wrap runes around their arms in order to gain the strength to carry them. They are used to cast elemental magic, and also for bonking people.
Gauntlets: A pair of light metallic gloves with two spikes jutting out from the knuckles. These are used for quick melee attacks, and chains can eject from the palms and used for tethering purposes. Limbonians use these.
Nether Edge: A type of sword that is short, but the blade is very wide and has a long flat tip. Tiny spikes coat the edges. Limbonians use these.
Now, the moment you've all been waiting for...
PLOT
The Aetherians and the Limbonians dream for an era of peace, but that dream is nothing but an impossible children's fantasy.
The leaders of the Aetherian Republic decided to give a speech to the distracted crowd that was present at the Aetherian capital of Trimarine. They went to the balcony in front of the governmental building. The chief leader came forward and used a vocal prism as a microphone. All eyes were set on him, suddenly.
"We are living in the darkest of times. This battle, between our forces and the Limbonian horde, has lasted for centuries, and even we cannot find the source for this skirmish. We have lost so many people dear to us, and we are searching as hard as we can to find a better solution around this dangerous conflict. It is unknown if this battle was even caused by unimportant reasons. But for the time being, we must create a strong force of warriors to take out the threat. We must stand up for this country! If we fail because we haven't tried, we will all perish in the Abyss. Let all the soldiers of the Abyss cower in fear at the sight of our justice! Our supreme knowledge and weaponry can prevail against the dark forces. This land of Aether, our only home, cannot be taken over by these wicked beings. This is the land of freedom, the land of hopes and dreams. And without you, citizens and soldiers, we will not be where we are today. Preserve our glory and fight for the sake of this planet!"
The speech was short, but the crowd went wild. People cheered for their leaders with joy, and soon the number of soldiers enlisted in the Aetherian forces doubled. They needed hope for this country.
Meanwhile, the Limbonians of the Abyss had similar plans. The Roc, leader of the Limbonians, sat on his throne in Yurgard and gave these orders to his top warriors:
"The new era of peace. We are the ones who will deliver it, and we will soon claim our homeworld once again. We cannot pursue that goal without a strong army. How dare the Sky people...taking over what is rightfully ours! They cannot be a part of the new era. Therefore, I give you my blessing and permission to travel to the Sky as you wish. Train your men with all your strength. Let them be emissaries of my power!"
This is where you come in. Will you fight for freedom with the Aetherians, or fight for conquest with the Limbonians? This very choice decides the fate of Terralheim!

Sorry that I'm late.
Name: Yvette [ɪvɛt]
Age: 21
Gender and appearance: Female. She has white skin and long but curly at the end red hair that goes a little past her shoulders. She stands at 5'6 and weighs 137 pounds, and has bright blue, almost gray eyes. Though she has many outfits, her main colors are red, black, white, gray, and bright blue. Her favorite outfit is a white newsboy cap with a bright red center and dark red edges and sleeves cloth shirt, her white scarf that is usually wrapped up to cover her mouth, hiding a lot of expressions, and finally, cloth black pants going down to her calves and to finish the look, dark gray boots with metal accents. One thing she's never without is a cheap and torn brown pack, which contains a couple of books for entertainment, and some speed and strength prisms. It also contains her weapons.
Alignment: Both? If not, Aetherian.
Social position/rank: A wanderer.
Weapon(s) of choice: All she has for defense is two daggers, she also often also has a metal pole that she can use as a weapon. She has a basic understanding of combat and slightly-above-average understanding of anatomy.
Biography: She was born as a middle-class citizen in Lepool, a very small town that nearly nobody's heard of. Its main claim to fame is the large library it has, where she spent most of her childhood. She learned what she could about both the Limbonian war and many languages. Though, of all the languages she learned, she only became fluent in a good four. Five including English, she also learned Iba, Y`ara, R`ejwuu, and Gi-it. Her motivation for learning them was to one day figure out the encryptions in the ruins. Her main goal is to settle the war between the Limbonians and Aetherians, or at least figure out a part of their history. As such, she became a wanderer to try and figure out the encryptions once and for all.
Kryyok/Chimera name: Szymczak [ʃɪmtʃək]
Kryyok/Chimera appearance: A weird one, this Kryyok has a seemingly random pattern of black, white, and gray feathers all over. He has no weapons attached, but he has to bags, one filled with books and maps, the other filled with various prisms mostly for everyday use.
Out of curiosity, as it's my characters goal and such, did you imagine the ruins encryptions as more hieroglyphics or Chinese letters? |

The Planet has a magnetic field that is weak? So the moons go into the planet?
Is gravity not the same in this universe? Because gravity has no dependence on Electromagnetism |

This is the kind of Roleplay I've been looking for all these months. Also, I have two questions mainly about weaponry,
1) Are there Shields?
2) Are Aetherians able to have Staffs like the Limbonians? I mean, it can't really be forbidden to have a staff as an Aetherian, right?

Gender:F
Appearance:Aqua has average height for a female, her eyes have a reddish tint to them due to her partly Limbonian nature. Her hair is black with a white highlight going down the middle of it. She wears a long, white, sleeved shirt that has two buttons near the neck of the shirt. She wears black pants with seams visible in the middle of the pants, she wears a black belt with a sliver colored buckle. She wears black boots that are more geared towards combat and adventuring.

Biography:Aqua's parents are a confusing bunch, her dad was a Limbonian but her mother was a fairly rich,Aetherian lady. How they fell in love, not even Aqua knows. Though there relations where scuessful, as Aqua was born. Though her father later died from a solider thinking he was attacking the maiden. As a result, Aqua's mother lost her sanity, and seeing no other choice for her daughter, put her into an foster home. Aqua soon found a strange stone, and soon joined the army and learned to fight. So as a result she has quite good combat skills.
Kryyok/Chimera name:Echo
Kryyok/Chimera appearance:Echo has a sliverish-blue appearance making it look like its made out of metal, when really its feathers are just that polished, the feathers have a redish-tint at the end of them.

While the feathers of Echo can act like razors, under its wings are also a grappling hook-like device, used for grabbing onto things in mid-air |

For those of you who are wondering, alignment cannot be neutral. Aetherians fighting for Limbonians and vice versa is considered treason in both realms.
@ goco2: Your CS is accepted. As for your question about the glyphs, I would figure it would have a Chinese style in that there would be multiple strokes to complete a character. But the appearance of the glyphs are completely different in appearance. I took some inspiration from the Poneglyphs in One Piece.
@ BrandonS677: Your CS is accepted (though is your main animal a Chimera?). And good question about the gravity issue. The floating islands' gravity are caused by energy prisms. Ships also need energy prisms if they are to not float away from Sky Water. They are also placed into people's footwear in case they are not within an energy prism's range. Limbo however has gravity withput an energy prism, because it's entire land in the center of the planet where the core is located.
@ DarkSide0fTheForce: There could be shields. Ones made out of metal, and maybe others operated with a barrier prism. And Aetherians can also use staves, but they are not made out of blackstone and cannot cast magic.

Name: Damien Ullan (You'll-Land) Lutio (Loo-Tee-Oh)
Age: Around Twenty
Gender and appearance:
Damien is a male, obviously. After working at a farm for all of his life, Damien has a muscular build. He has short black hair and from the looks of things, Damien had just shaved, leaving the small black dots (I think they're called shavings or whiskers) around his mouth and under his nose. His eyes are dark green and his skin is white. He often wears a ragged blue bandana on his forehead with a small logo in the center.
He wears blue jeans that are tucked into black cargo boots. Tucked into his jeans is a white tank top with a gray shirt above. Above the shirt is a navy blue aviator styled jacket that is zipped open. A brown belt rest above all of the layers.
Damien's entire right arm is covered by a darker navy blue armor. The shoulder pad covers his elbow and some of the jacket around the right arm. His arm armor is not that thick but still pretty tough. The armor ends at his wrist where both hands have black gloves. The armor is not a part of him and he can take the armor off easily. His arm guard is not much but he is a farm boy after all. He was raised herding Kryyoks, not training to fight Limbonians.
Alignment: Aetherian
Social position/rank: A farm boy willing to join the military
Weapon(s) of choice: Damien wields two weapons; A metal shield and a wooden staff. The shield holds a barrier prism and is dark gray with a navy blue design upon the surface. Lutio's father was a part time blacksmith when he was younger and had crafted this shield long ago. It is now Lutio's property.
Damien's staff is, well, wooden. There are small chunks of rusty metal attached to parts of the staff for two reasons, which is to keep the staff together and for a fighting advantage. The staff has a strap attached to itself so Damien can easily put the staff around his shoulder like a backpack.
Biography:
Damien Ullan Lutio was born within the Lutio farm used for sheltering Kryyoks. Raised to herd Kryyoks and occasionally sell a Kryyok to earn some scales, Lutio has always been there to make sure his family makes it through. He has low social skills as he has barely left the farm, the few times to sell a Kryyok or to purchase fruits for his family.
Besides being born and raised a farm boy, there isn't much to Damien, as he yet to accomplish much in his life. After hearing the rest of society needed soldiers for a war, he had convinced his father and mother to let him go. So that's really where we are now in Lutio's life, saying goodbye to all of the Kryyoks at the farm and finding 'his' Kryyok to bring along for the ride, since his farm is a single cloud and there are no 'bridges' or pathways there besides flying a Kryyok.
Kryyok name: Shampel (Sham-Pel)
Kryyok appearance: Shampel's face is a bit flat and his left eye will often trail to the side. His feathers all around his body are a lighter tone of yellow and he is missing one claw on his rear left leg. For weaponry, Shampel has a saddle which holds a broad sword used for emergencies, like if Damien ever happened to lose his other weapons. |

@ DarkSide0fTheForce: Your CS is accepted. To spice things up during the RP, I'll make myself a Limbonian CS, and then we can begin.

You also have to consider public approach, if you own a Chimera people would question why. |

By default, a Limbonian's animal is a Chimera, while an Aetherian has a Kryyok.

CHARACTER SHEET
Name: Priya Crux
Age: 27
Gender and appearance: Female. She has pasty tan skin from the lack of sunlight that's riddled with training and possibly battle scars. She's 5'10", roughly 150 lbs, and is slight toned from years of hauling her weapon around. This, of course, included the rune routinely or permanently etched into her arms. She has longer legs and broad shoulders. She has a long, angular face with a bent (once broken) Greek nose and thin lips. She has deeply set, gray eyes accompanied by bags of lacking sleep and thick eyebrows. The left side of her head is shaved of brown hair, while the other side falls straight to her jawline. Her horns swoop farther back that typical horns and swoop down, up, then away. They're only a foot or so long. She usually/mostly wears uniformly black clothing. Currently, she wears a sleeveless turtleneck that's bound with a few strips of leather. A strip of fabric falls from it the hang at her left side. She wears long pants that are bound her legs with lighter, criss-crossing strips of fabric. Her shoes are most easily described as combat boots. For armor, she only wears shoulder pads and a light chest plate. For accessories, only a red scarf adorns her neck.
Alignment: Limbonian
Social position/rank: Lieutenant
Weapon(s) of choice: A staff is all she's ever needed. It's fantastic for bonking people.
Biography: (Only an overview) Pirya was practically born and raised for the army. Both her parents having military backgrounds, they ensured her future among the ranks. She began training at her home in Yurgard at a very young age. Her parents made sure she would be as physically fit as possible to enter official training early. Of course, as she aged, she began to greatly detest their efforts and grew rebellious. Under their watchful eye and hard hands, they quickly retook control over the situation.
Several years passed, and after receiving a sufficient education, Pirya was sent off to Swordyal for her official training. Her years of preening paid off, as she quickly excelled among her peers. She enlisted for the army as soon as she came of age, putting behind whatever dreams and hopes of rebellion remained. Time would progress, risks would be taken, and soon enough she traveled through the ranks.
Chimera name: Yuka
Chimera appearance: While primarily black in appearance, Yuka's fur is lined with thin streaks of white, which are more predominant along his face and spine. His plumage remains stark black with white roots. And if it's allowed, he has think horns resembling that of an impala.
(I can change anything if needed.) |

@ Afrikaisi: accepted.
Name: Sulance Vulkan
Age: 27
Gender and appearance: A skinny, yet muscular male Limbonian with white skin, long black hair, and green eyes. His antlers are 1 foot tall. He wears nothing on top except for a belt strap that wraps around him from his top-right shoulder down to his left side. He has black baggy cargo pants and wears white bandages around his feet, but not covering his heel and toes. He wears a black wooden bracelet on his left arm. A blue tattoo shaped like an eye is seen on his chest.
Alignment: Limbonian
Social position/rank: soldier
Weapon(s) of choice: A staff, and some kunai knives strapped to his pant waistline.
Biography: Sulance's mother died when he was born, and his father had left him to fight the Aetherians, leaving him to be raised by Chimeras that he was able to tame. Later on in his life, he created a group called the Reavers, a band of teenage hooligans that would train and hang out in Shadow Forest. When he enlisted in the army, he learned how to use nature magic, which allowed him to control the greenery and plant life of a specific area. He is also skilled in Kai-yo, a martial art that helps with mobility. His goal is to uncover the mystery of the strange glyphs seen in Temple Limbo.
Chimera name: Kalankut
Chimera appearance: Normal in appearance, but with red markings on his face that symbolizes strength in war. He was one of Sulance's first befriended Chimeras.

(The RP will begin now. I may be off for most of today, but you can feel free to continue with the story.)
Hubo
"Man...and it feels like nothing important is gonna happen," Hubo said, dripping with sweat from training, as he walked away from the Gild Base. His Kryyok, Caelum, was waiting for him at the edge of the island.
"Alright, let's move!" Hubo commanded. Caelum let out a screech, and jumped from the cliff in freefall. He angled little by little until he soared upwards because of the momentum. Hubo always enjoyed the thrill of flying at high speed throughout the skies. He felt like he had the most freedom while doing so.
They stopped by some ancient ruins to take a break. Hubo reached into his pocket and felt nothing. He had a face of disgust.
"I left my money at home," he told Caelum. "I wanted to grab a quick snack on the way. Dang..."
"KREEEE!" Caelum said.
"Glad you agree with me, buddy. Let's go!"
Hubo mounted on Caelum and made for Ecelbarg, his home district. One of Terralheim's moons was 10 miles away from his house. Hubo took a moment to look at that sight. He shook his head and grabbed his money, then turned away and went to the butcher shop nearby.
Sulance:
Sulance sat by the river in Shadow Forest. He was spinning his staff like a baton. His Chimera Kalankut was close by.
"Master Sulance," the Chimera said via telepathy by using Sulance's telepathy magic, "when is it time we will depart from here to the Sky?"
"Only when we're ready," Sulance said. "Who knows what awaits us up there. I'm guessing spoiled rich people."
"Rich, indeed. Some warriors of ours plunder thousands of scales worth of gol when they travel to the Sky," Kalankut said.
"...the Sky. I've always wanted to know about it more. People told me it's like heaven up there. Numerous floating islands and villages, ancient ruins, and those things called moons...whatever those are."
"When you do go to the Sky, please take me with you. I want to be a part of these wonderful things," Kalankut said.
"Heh! Are you kidding? How else am I gonna go up there without you?"
"That's a relief. I'm still too young, aren't I?"
"From the looks of things, yes. At least you can fly pretty well. C'mon, training begins soon."
Sulance mounted Kalankut and the duo flew over to Swordyal to begin their training. |

Priya
She held her body close to the shoulders of her chimera as they swooped and circled through the sky, watching for any oddities or... troublesome occurances. ... Really, she just up there to make sure all of the trainees have arrived.
