13. Oh, this is refreshing, number 13. No killing people's characters without their permission .w. Feel free to severely wound/maim them though! Put in the number 7 somewhere in your form.

14. Wardens are almost invincible when in the Ruins. Please remember that if playing as a "bad guy." Just putting this out there.

15. One sphere of control per character, meaning you can't have two.

.w. So yeah. There were formerly 12 Wardens, each having their own sphere of control, i.e. darkness, light, etc. Please note that these spheres of control randomize each time a Chosen comes.

Explanation: There are twelve main artifacts. Emphasis on main. Over the years, usually when a Chosen follows the call of the Beacon, they usually arrive being chased by monsters and other vile beings. Of course, they always carry something from their world to the Ruins. This said, if they stay and pledge themselves to protecting the artifacts, whatever material object they brought from another world will eventually absorb the magic that is most fitting to their owner. For the time being, the item is just a piece of junk after declaring the Chosen's sphere of control. During the former Chosen, now Warden's life (note that they CANNOT die of old age after submitting to their role as a Warden), the item will be thrown in with the real artifacts, where it will eventually absorb magic and become an artifact itself. Thus a logical explanation on why the bloody hell one of the artifacts is a freaking cookie jar of darkness.

After a human lifetime passes (aka a century), the item will be fully charged with arcane magic and thus will have become an artifact. The next Chosen that arrives can now choose it as their main conduit of power. Whenever a Warden dies, their conduit of power will die with them, and their sphere of control will be available for the next Chosen.

Only the original 12 artifacts will never die if they become a Warden's conduit of power.

Artifacts can be chosen as conduits of power by the Wardens, which they use to channel the arcane energy that they have been granted access to. Oh, destroying a Warden's conduit of power will impact them greatly, making it possible for them to be defeated and killed even within the Ruins. I think that's everything for now. Gosh, I think I created a book, not a roleplay.

Character Name: Thiria Solita

Gender/Sexuality: Female

Age: 15

Species: Human, champion of Fortuna.

Chosen, Warden, or something else? Chosen

Appearance(s): Thiria has long, black hair which she keeps braided down her back. Her eyes are a deep blue, with tiny glints of silver. Her mouth is always set in a stern position; her skin color a pale peach. She has a tall and lithe build, and is particularly good with a bow and arrows. When she arrives, she wears a blue jacket with black pants as well as a star pendant from the human world.

Sphere of Control: (If Chosen/Warden.) Time.

Abilities: As a Chosen of time, she has the power to speed up or slow down time and predict the future and see into the past. She can also use it as a sort of energy blast, aging her enemies within seconds.

History: To be RPed? Basically, she lived with her parents until the age of 9, where they got killed in an accident. She lived alone, somehow undetected, until she received the call.

Other: Well, I could write this up as a series, yes.

Username: Omnia

Character Name: Raeyn Wilmist

Gender/Sexuality: Female

Age: 'Round a couple of millennia. She was part of the first group of Chosen. Since becoming a Warden, she's stayed looking like when she first became one - 16.

Species: Unknown...for now. There are, however, rumors that she wasn't exactly human back before she was a Warden.

Chosen, Warden, or something else? Warden.

Appearance(s):

Raeyn is a striking resemblance of Valkyrie Cain, leading some to suspect she is somewhat connected to the infamous world-breaker. Her dark hair and eye color reflect her powers over the dark, and she almost always is dressed in dark clothing. She enjoys playing doppelganger and copying Valkryie Cain's signature outfit that consists of a three-quarter length coat, a tunic, tight trousers, and long boots - all black and made from an almost impenetrable material. She occasionally dons a coat with blood-red sleeves, and sometimes a black jacket, of the same material.

It is later revealed that the cloth used to make her clothes was spun by Athena, who, in fact, in her world was just an extremely gifted weaver, and not a goddess.

Raeyn has a slim figure, and was rather tall for a sixteen year old. Despite her skinny frame, underestimating her is definitely dumb.

Sphere of Control: Darkness. It's a bit astonishing to know that a Warden could wield such an unpredictable element, much less control it. Raeyn has been one of the fair few Wardens that has somehow connected with the dark forces.

Abilities: Let's leave this mostly to your imagination. As a long-time Warden, she's accumulated skills that surpass even some beings' imaginations. Her basic attacks consist of shadow whips, barriers, and tendrils. She sometimes takes a leaf out of Valkyrie's book, shrouding her body parts with solid darkness if she needs to get up and close, enhancing her physical strength and endurance.

History: Very little is known about her life before becoming a Warden. As one of the first Chosen, she has made some serious impressions on those who sought out the Ruins and the artifacts. Raeyn has made a great number of enemies as well as allies during her time as a Warden, becoming a terrifying icon of power as time passed. She is known by many names, such as Lady of the Shadowed Light, Sorceress of the Shadows, Dark Mist of Valhalla, just to name a few. Secretive and aloof, she rarely ever speaks to outsiders or the newly Chosen. According to some rumors, her current conduit of power is an arcane blade forged from black ice from the frozen seas of her world. During her first century as a Warden, her conduit of power was a sceptre, formerly a mere decor until it was charged with magic from the Ruins. Apparently she switched to the sword after her first century as a Warden. She rarely wields the ancient blade, but when she does, it often ends in destruction.

Other: Her current conduit of power, a dark frostblade, was also her Deciding Item, aka the item which she brought with her that eventually decided her sphere of power. The artifact she personally guards is an intricately decorated glass jar that is often mistaken as an ordinary cookie jar. It is said to hold an energy of immense darkness.

Quote from Raeyn Wilmist

I have fought to the end of my breath many times, and I will do it again and again. Do not underestimate the power of the most minuscule shadow, even that of an ant's. For I will show you why I am called the Dark Mist of Valhalla.

Sphere of Control: Sphere of Light (She accepted becoming a Warden.)

Abilities: As a Warden of Light, she can purify creatures from the darkness and can also destroy

Username: Tezio

Character Name: Rucien Wyatton

Gender/Sexuality: Male

Age: 15

Species: Human.

Chosen, Warden, or something else? Chosen.

Appearance(s): Rucien has short, straight, shiny dirty-ish blond hair, and wears formal clothing every day, except, on some occasions, he wears anything that anyone wants him to wear, technically, he wants attention and would love to do anything anyone wants him to do. Rucien also has silver eyes, and it only flickers a little black when bored. He also is 5`6. Rucien is scrawny, so he is skinny, in the way of not being healthy. Rucien`s daily clothes are technically just a white long-sleeved shirt, just under his black non-sleeved shirt. Rucien also has a red tie, which is showable on the outside.

Rucien also likes to wear a golden bracelet, which he has spent a lot of money on.

Sphere of Control: Wind. (If it`s too op, maybe I can change it.)

Abilities: He can use wind and such to fly, suffocate people when they breathe air, etc. but he cannot do particular things such as tornadoes and other big things. He is most likely scared of wind, and always flinches when he even sees his own abilities, too, but he never admits that, because of his attempts to make new people think he`s amazing.

History: Rucien lived in a enormous house, full of riches and stuff, until his parents decided for him to go and live with his uncle. There was a big tornado, and his parents died. When Rucien heard the news, he tried to shrug it off, but after that, he became, very, very afraid of wind. He`s not afraid of the wind that he breathes, but he`s afraid to big amounts of wind. After that, he kept on living with his uncle.

Other: 7, I swear I`ll not be procrastinating this time :v But I`d like to see my character die off, I`d like to experience it.

Username: pretzel987

Character Name: Drake

Gender/Sexuality: Male

Age: 35

Species: Passes off by human, but is actually an unknown species artificially created.

Chosen, Warden, or something else? Newly made Warden.

Appearance(s):

Sphere of Control: Space (like palkia-space, not outer space-space XD)

Abilities: Being the master of space, his chief ability is instantaneous travel for himself and objects he maintains contact with or is within a short distance of. If he is drawn into combat, however, he can distort space into a variety of shapes, forming whatever is necessary for the situation (ie. forming a compact area of space to use as a wall)

History: He was originally created to be the exact opposite of a warden, but he saw the wrong of his ways and willingly had portions of his memory wiped. He is now completely loyal, but occasional flashbacks cause him to occasionally be unpredictably violent at times. To deal with this, he has been granted the main role of messenger and transporter of bulk items, and usually kept out of combat, except in dire situations. Whenever he enters combat, allies usually free the area, as when a flashback occurs, he will attack anything on sight. So far however, there have been no major accidents just a few houses destroyed and Chosen maimed, nothing major.

Other: This guy basically is told what to do by the other wardens/chosen, so yeah.

Username: iMakai

Character Name: ''Name's Kichirou.''

Gender/Sexuality: ''You blind or what?'' (Male.)

Age: ''Why would I tell you?'' (15)

Species: ''More human than you'll ever be!'' (Future Warden.)

Chosen, Warden, or something else?: ''Thief Treasure Hunter, obviously!'' (Still a normal treasure hunter.)

Appearance(s): ''Dunno. I like long, brown hair. My eyes are kinda weird. Violet... Such a girly color! Obviously, I always keep my precious bag o' precious stuff with me! A white shirt and leather jacket is more than enough for me. Besides that huge belt, I also wear black trousers. What did you expect from a person that constantly walks in ruins?
Ah, and this? It's a somewhat golden bracelet. I got it in a ruin once! You see that? It's got a some kind of blue gem on it. I tried to sell it once, but they said it's priceless, so I kept it.''

Sphere of Control: ''Tell me more about those.'' (He's still a normal human.)

Abilities: ''Stealth, pickpocket, archery. Y' know. Basic stuff.''

History: ''After my family was murdered by some filthy bandits, I escaped. The only thing that kept me alive (and gave me money), was treasure hunting and a bit of thievery. I gotta tell you, something was haunting my dreams for a while. It's happening to this day, and it started when I heard about some artifacts, that supposedly held huge amounts of power. I have no clue where can I find them, but I will. I cannot stand those nightmares anymore. Also, they are probably worth some coin~!''

Other: I hope someone gets the ''thief'' reference. .-.
Also, hooray me! It all started on a jar of cookies.
Uh, so. I read your explanation and it finally got to me. You asked me to edit my Form, and while I didn't see any problems, I just added that he's going to be the future Warden.
Probably did something wrong again

Username: Viper

Character Name: Viper Redbird, but everybody only knows her first name (I'm seriously not going to think up a new name for RPs anytime soon, am I?)

Gender/Sexuality: Female

Age: 14

Species: Human (at least that's what everyone thinks)

Chosen, Warden, or something else? Chosen

Appearance(s):
1.)Formal/fancy appearance: A 14-year-old wearing a long dress. The dress itself is black, blue and also has small specks of white, red and yellow, with fancy(but not annoying) trimming. A crescent moon is affixed on the left, below her shoulder blades. This outfit sometimes has a hat too, which has a veil and has silver trimmings, matching with her dress.
2.)Battle appearance: A fourteen-year old wearing night-themed chest plate, with no helmet. Instead, she has a thin band of silver aglow with what seems to be moonlight. Her bracers and greaves match the night theme, and sometimes blends into the night. (Note: It ranges from annoying to a giveaway in darkness, because some the the parts glow) Her gloves are simply dark.
3.)Casual appearance: A 14-year-old wearing a midnight blue shirt, sleeves go up to her forearm. Wears jeans and sneakers. Her headband is still there.
4.)Anything always present:
- White hair, tied in a braid
- Blue eyes
- A golden ring embedded with a purple jewel in the shape of a circle.
- A necklace with some healing potion in it, a charm has been cast on said necklace so that a quarter of a liter of potion is sorted in a circular and misty pendant.

Sphere of Control: Night

Abilities: She is the strongest at the midnight hour, and she usually sleeps during the day. Of course, that would be because when the sun reaches it's peak, her powers are the weakest. In combat, Viper usually changes her headband into a sword. Her other attacks include dream manipulation(unless the victim is blocking her) and accessing the moon's powers.

History: Viper used to be the neglected daughter of a rich father, until she ran away to forge her own path. She is ridiculously bad at trusting people, but once anyone earns her trust and companionship, she is extremely loyal. Viper is also secretive and reserved. If anyone asks her a personal question, at best she would answer it in short, misleading and unclear answers, and at worst she would haunt you forever...

Other: there are 7 days in a week.

Username: Death

Character Name: Amsel Verhoef Engel Mur (Yes that is her full name. Amsel is her "first" name.)

Gender/Sexuality: Female - Asexual (I love making ace characters, don't I? XD)

Age: Several millennia, she's around the same age as Raevn, having been in the first group of Chosen.

Species: Pisces species, making her a Piscean. (I couldn't come up with a creative name, so...meh.)

Chosen, Warden, or something else? Warden

Appearance(s):

She has a mermaid-looking tail, and floats in the air using levitation. (She doesn't have any extra psychic powers or anything, though. No mind reading or telepathy. :P) Her hair floats around her as if she were underwater. She sometimes wears a short black dress with spaghetti straps when other people pressure her into wearing clothes.

Sphere of Control: Sound/Music

Abilities: She can use her voice as a weapon by doing things such as screaming/singing at extreme volumes and frequencies to hurt things and shatter objects. She can also do things such as throw her voice, and amplify it to make it loud enough for people far away to hear her without losing hearing, etc. Along with that, she can mimic any sound she's heard, including voice impersonations, and even musical instruments.

History: Amsel was one of the most talented musicians of her home planet, and even several other planets. She was drawn to the beacon, claiming to have been "following the song." The song placed itself in her head and led her to the beacon, where she learned that she was one of the "Chosen." The lyre that she happened to take with her became her Deciding object, later to become her conduit of power when a century had passed.

Other: She's the seventh daughter of her family.

Username: Neverlight

Character Name: Liana

Gender/Sexuality: Female

Age: 121

Species: Slendurian

Chosen, Warden, or something else?: Chosen

Appearance(s):

Sphere of Control: Fear (If she decides to become a warden.)

Abilities: She can cause hallucinations of her targets greatest fear. The more afraid they are the more powerful she becomes. When she gains enough power she can make the hallucination a reality. Other abilities include telepotation, an EMP field, and quick recovery from wounds. She also has the rare ability to mentally control weak, or willing, minds. However it takes a lot of energy to convert someone, and will leave her without her other abilities for a short time. The life forms she cotrols are comonly reffered to as Proxy.

History: Liana was born the only child of the royal family. Her mother died a few months later, leaving her in the hands of her uncaring father. He secretly despised her, blaming her for the death of her mother. Because of this she spent much of her earliest years around the Menolians, a race of human like creatures used as slaves by the Slendurian people. In reality, this was one of the best things that could have happened to her. These kind and gentle people taught her things she would never have learned from her father. They taught her to love, to be merciful, to give freely. Those were the happiest days of her life. Until that day. That day when she first felt the brutality of real world. A group of Menolian freedom fighters tried to start a global uprising. They did not succeed. Instead they brought about the total annihilation of their people. No mercy was shown, no prisoners taken. Only blood and fire and death. The cruel slaughter of her only friends led Liana down a dark road of hate and bitterness. It was at this point that her father finally decided to notice her. He found that she was no longer the carefree child he had hated. She was dark and consumed by anger and fear. He knew she could be molded into whatever he wanted her to be. So he took her far into the country, to a training school normally reserved for the males of the species. Female Slendurians are normally far weaker than males, meaning they were given no training in battle. Liana quickly shattered this stereotype, crushing even the strongest males in physical combat, and far outpacing them in metal exercises. She trained there for the next sixty years of her life, before returning to her home in the royal palace. Her father, still being unsure of her abilities, entered her in a global competition of fear. Slendurians prize the ability to strike fear into the heart of an opponent above all else. She swept through the competition, soon making it to the finals. She and her opponent, a male from the other side of the planet, entered a room together alone. After a few minutes, Liana exited. The boy was carted off to psychiatric care. For winning the tournament Liana was named, "Face of Horror". Slendurians do not have last names. Instead they are given a title. This title is determined by their crowning achievement. At last Liana had proven herself to her father. Their relationship was one of mutual respect rather than one based on love. She soon grew to trust him, and would tell him everything. Whatever he asked her to do she did without question. He was proud of his daughter to no end. And once again, Liana was happy. Then came the call. The horrible pull of the beacon. Liana's father knew what it was immediatly. He had heard tales of the Atifacts at the end of the universe. Items of such great power, if one were to have them all, they would be as a god. He became obsessed with the thought, and demanded that Liana retrieve the Artifacts from their hiding place. At first Liana begged him not to make her leave, pleading for him to find another to go. But after he explained that only she would be able to find them, she relented. The only thing she took with her was her mothers necklace, a small pendant made to look like the royal crest. After many months of travel she has finally arrived at the gates of the ruins.

Other: Has a terrible temper, which makes potential friends stay away.

Username: Dakar

Character Name: Dakar

Gender/Sexuality: Female.

Age: 97

Species: Wyvern

Chosen, Warden, or something else?: Something else

Appearance(s): Similar to my avatar, but taller. (I couldn't find a photo describing what I'd like, and I'm too unskilled to draw my own.)

Abilities: Superior physical strength, the ability to shift into another species.

History: Dakar can't remember any memories except for those that extend for about 40 years. (She basically can't remember half of her life.) However, in those 40 years she has been tricked, robbed, and attacked more times than she can count, as people usually underestimate her because of the fact that she is physically a teenager and is very naive. From this, she learned that most people are not to be trusted, so she set off for a physical and mental ideal alone.
(Sorry for the low-quality history, I'm typing this at 4:30AM while drinking soooo much caffeinated drinks)

Other: Dakar is still comparatively young for a wyvern. Thus, she is very naive and can be tricked easily.

FAQ 1. Can I have a same sphere of control as an existing character?
Answer: In fact? Yes. But I'd really prefer if this was kept to a minimum. We don't need five Lights, or three Darknesses running around, just as an example.

FAQ 2. What's the difference between a Chosen and a Warden?

Answer: A Chosen is just a handpicked person with special "good" qualities that have the potential to wield the arcane magic of an artifact. Just the potential. They only gain their powers after choosing an artifact as a conduit of power and accepting their role as a protector of the Ruins, aka becoming a Warden.

A Warden is a former Chosen, who accepted their role as a protector. After their sphere of control is determined and their conduit of power is chosen, they gain their respective powers, and limited immortality. They can never die of old age, unless certain circumstances occur.

FAQ 3. How does a Chosen become a Warden?

Answer: Simple, really. They pledge their life to protecting the artifacts. Boom, Beacon grants them limited immortality and their powers respective to their sphere of control.

FAQ 4. How exactly do Wardens gain powers?

Answer: They just need to choose an artifact to use as a conduit of power (use the dictionary if you dunno what conduit means. .w.) After that, they eventually realize they have powers. It's not easy to control them at first though. It usually takes years for a Warden to completely not demolish something accidentally.

FAQ 5. Why even mention Chosens? Why not just put Wardens?

Answer: Because Chosen beings can still decide whether or not to become a Warden. This decision usually takes a fair bit of time. People can actually make Chosen chars that chose not to be a Warden.

FAQ 6. What's the difference between an artifact and a conduit of power?

Answer: An artifact is just an item charged with arcane magic. A conduit of power is an artifact that is used by Wardens for various reasons, such as weapons. Conduits of power, if destroyed, gravely weakens a Warden, enough to be able to kill them even within the Ruins of Morrow.

FAQ 7. How are artifacts created?

Answer: I already explained this twice, I believe. But anyway, an artifact is an item charged with arcane magic. Any item brought by a Chosen to the Ruins can become an artifact by sitting in our little magical cellar for a century. The item, now a fully charged artifact, can now be chosen as a conduit of power.

FAQ 8. Conduits of power? What? How does an artifact become one?

Answer: The artifact has to be chosen by a Warden to become a conduit of power. The artifact will then bond to the Warden, becoming their conduit of power.

FAQ 9. Hold up, if Wardens can be killed if their conduit of power is destroyed, then why do Wardens use them as weapons?

Answer: Because a conduit of power is basically the cannon shooting the cannonball. Sure, throwing the cannonball at the enemy is a bit effective, but putting it in a cannon makes it ten times more powerful and dangerous. Besides, conduits are only used as last resorts.

FAQ 10. Time out! Why do Wardens need conduits of power?

Answer: Because Wardens can't just have powers without a filter. Without a conduit, a Warden would spontaneously combust due to the fact the Beacon directly charges their magic.

FAQ 11. What about the 12 main artifacts? What are they?

Answer: That, my dear friend, is for you to choose.

FAQ 12. Can my character use one of the 12 main artifacts as a conduit of power?

Answer: That would depend on who you are, and your character form. I will only allow this for the best roleplayers, and the best developed characters.

First question. What's this thread supposed to do?

Answer: To help struggling aspiring roleplays meet their dreams.

I thought of this after someone invited me to a one-liner roleplay and my sleep-deprived brain decided to go all "YOLO!" Off-topic. I've been seeing spriter schools out there, so I thought, "Why not make a school for roleplaying?" Anyway, I've been seeing a LOT of seriously basic roleplays out there being made. Almost no plot (or no plot at all), posts are almost always one-liners, and often the roleplay escalates to just purely random roaming around till it dies. In other words, serious roleplayers' worst nightmare //shot

I suspect some of those "one-liner" roleplayers don't really mean to kill their roleplays. Some may do it just for the pure fun of it, but I really don't think that's a majority. Problem is, I don't think anybody's personally helping those who want to improve, improve. Sure, some might, but a lot of roleplayers are left struggling to fend for themselves in the internet where people tend to yell at them due to their basic skills.

I know a couple of roleplayers who are REALLY trying to get better at it, but have no idea how to. They're advised to study the more advanced ones, and try and learn from that.

Sorry, but I really don't think the "watch and learn" technique is going to work here.

Sure, some will learn...eventually. But we're talking about languages here. In this case, it's English. 26 letters, all having uppercase and lowercase forms that combine to make nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, and a whole lot of other stuff I'd rather not list down in fear of clogging up this post.

Is it possible to learn EVERY SINGLE WORD AND ITS FACTORS by just WATCHING?

There's this person you call a teacher who personally spends their entire life on teaching one certain language. Teaching yourself? Slightly possible if you're some gifted bilingual genius or you just are a very stubborn person who won't give up on it. Or some other exception I don't know about.

Yes. It's possible to become a really awesome roleplayer just by watching. But it takes a lot of time and effort and sweat and blood and tears- okay, I need to stop rambling. Summing it up, it's difficult, it's kind of disheartening, and sometimes you may just burst into tears of frustration hysterically screaming murder as you pull out tufts of your hair. I think I went overboard with that one, but I'm certain you get the point.

This thread was made specifically to help out people who want to learn to roleplay better. People here can discuss all sorts of roleplaying problems, varying from grammar to spelling to a small vocabulary. Users can also discuss plot-making, character development, refraining from godmodding etc. Whether you're an experienced roleplayer wanting to pass down your wisdom, an aspiring one-liner roleplayer, or just a normal roleplayer who craves to get better, or some other random combo I didn't mention, this is the thread for you.
