Story: Hundreds of years ago, a great mage and a great smith worked together to harness the pure power of the seven deadly sins. They created seven identical blades and seven identical seals to augment the blades, then imbued each with a single sin before separating the two on oposite sides of the world; now, you are part of a group searching for them. The group is currently at ruins in the north, closing in on the first blade, Superbia Vesica...

The Rules

Besides the general RP rules, don't go post crazy. I'll warn you if you do.

Also, it would be preferable if nobody wandered off; it's easier that way.

The Targets

Seven sins, fourteen incarnations, eight compass points. Here's how they divide out:

North: Superbia Vescia, the Pride blade.
South: Superbia Sigillum, the Pride seal.
East: Avaricia Vescia, the Avarice (greed) blade, and Gula Sigillum, the Gluttony/Waste seal.
West: Avaricia Sigillum and Gula Vescia
NE: Invidia (Envy) Vescia and Luxuria (Lust) Sigillum
SW: Invidia Sigillum and Luxuria Vescia
NW: Ira (Wrath) Vescia and Acedia (Sloth) Sigillum
SE: Ira Sigillum and Acedia Vescia

Name:
Gender:
Age:
Appearance:
Weapon: I will allow one main weapon and one side weapon. If you can use magic, the main weapon is automatically some kind of staff.
Other Equipment:
Main Sin: Choose one. One per person, first come, first serve.
Personality: Be sure to include how your person's main sin affects this. While avarice/greed doesn't nessicarily mean they're a moneygrabbing, no-good, thief, if you choose lust, it's rather hard to be chaste. Creativity is also a plus.

Name: Jabs Dakka
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Appearance: Blonde hair and green eyes. Caucasian. Has a bit of a beard.
Weapon: I can use magic with my enchanted stave (what kind of magic system is this?). Side weapon is, of course, my trusty katana.
Other Equipment: A flashlight that will never run out of power.
Main Sin: Wrath.
Personality: I'm usually nice and carefree, but DO NOT FUCK WITH ME OR MY FRIENDS. Push me too far and I enter Wrath Mode. When that happens, I'm a virtually unstoppable juggernaut of anger who is dangerous to EVERYONE.
Other: Loves pizza.

This'll be my first RP.
 
Name: Izumi Kihaku
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Appearance:
Physical-

Izumi's really short, about a regular 14 year old's height. She has long straight black hair, and has green eyes. She has bangs that cover her left eye. She wears hoop earrings. She has light tanned skin.

Clothing-
Izumi wears a long sleeve black shirt, and a skirt with blue and black patterns on them. She has long socks, and wears blue sneakers. Though, sometimes, she wears different clothing, mainly a black T-shirt, and a short sleeve pink jacket. When Izumi is wearing this, her skirt is pink and black, other than blue and black. She also wears black fingerless gloves, with a star design in the palm.

Weapon: She is empowered by elemental crystals that float around her, her crystals are the symbol to her power. Izumi currently has 5. Each crystal has its own unique power, and they could be used as a shield, an equip, a platform, and other things.
Crystals on hand-
Lightning Crystal
Magma Crystal
Blizzard Crystal
Psychic Crystal
Holy Crystal

Secondary Weapon:
Dual Spirit-
A sword with the blade about 4 feet long, and the sword hilt is engraved with a special ancient design. The blade itself has two split metals, one that is a shining silver, that effects humans only. The other side is made of a celestial glowing bronze, which is very effective against daemons and other things of that sort.

Main Sin: Envy(?)

Personality: Basically, Izumi is michevious, and overactive. But during her time alone, she tends to be lazy, but otherwise, She's fired up and ready to go. Izumi is tricky and likes to poke fun at people sometimes, making fun of their bad sides. She tends to try to be brave and strong, but on the inside, she's scared. Izumi very sensitive when someone makes fun of her, but she tries to laugh it off most of the time, trying to hide the fact that mere insults effect her deeply.

Other: N/A
 
Both accepted! What your main sin affect (besides your personality) will be revealed a little into the RP.

And mine:

Name: Ansom Danson
Gender: M
Age: 23
Appearance: Medium-longish black hair, with dark eyes and slightly pale skin. He is almost six foot in height, and his arms are extremely muscular, due to him being an archer. He wears a half-robe that covers the right side of his body, so that nothing is caught in his bow string. His quiver is almost horizontal on the back of his body, so he can quickly grab arrows.
Weapon: Ryunoagito, an almost impossibly strong bow made from an ancient tree that was hit by lightning; even today, the bow holds minor electric power that can be harnessed with enough stress on the user. It also has spike-like protrusions on the front, allowing minor use as a melee club.

Secondary: The Mumeigiken, a silver dagger taken from a shamanistic tribe that was used for sacrifices. It holds poison in its hilt, so the sacrifice feels less pain and dies quickly; this poison can be removed, however, and it can also be switched out for others that Ansom has created.
Other Equipment:
Main Sin: Pride
Personality: While he isn't disproportianately proud of everything, he does believe himself to be one of the best archers in the world, and this is his worst sin. He is otherwise a good leader and friendly person, but, since he is proud of the group that has gathered, the first person to not follow orders has a high chance of ending up with an arrow through their head.
Other: The default leader of the group

---

Also, I'd ask that, until I say people can, nobody makes more than one character, because of the limited space.
 
We'll all know each other to some extent, but most of us haven't really met; we'll meet up shortly after the start up, with maybe some minor backstory in the first post, etc., etc.
 
Yep. And now for the magic system:

There are five magical energies: Heat, Cold, Pure (sort of electricity), Light, and Shadow. Mages use their staffs to find sources of these energies (like a fire or lake, or pure forms of the energy hidden and invisible) to gather the energy and transform it into a spell; while inexperienced mages can barely create an ambient heat source with Flame energy, masters can pull Flame energy from meteors themselves, causing them to crash to the earth. Creativity is useful for mages, because most who try the meteor thing die. Hey, if you can't find enough energy, you have to use your own.
 
No, not really.

Mages will learn how to do things more efficiently from trial and error of sorts; if you survive, it'll work is the mantra of many mages. The Blades and Seals will also affect character, especially if they have the same Sin. i.e., if someone is Lust and they're around both the Seal and the Blade, then they'll be affected largely; how depends on the sin and the person.
 
Never knew you added so much into this...

So um... does this mean I have to change my character's Ability?
 
No, your crystals actually go pretty well with the five elements (exept psychic, which might possibly be bent to a dark form of some kind...). However, as they're more a weapon than a staff, they'd be a bit weaker than a mage.
 
Name: Andrew Fields

Gender: Male

Age: 19

Appearance: A grey hoodie over a blue t-shirt. He wears blue denim jeans with blue tennis shoes on. He has short, spiky dirty blond hair. He is tall, about 6', and weighs about 152 pounds.

Main Weapon: Seracus, a sword made from ice that was charmed magically to never melt. It can be used to cast Cold magic, and inflicts Cold damage whn used in any way.

Secondary Weapon: Meteor Bow, a bow made from a fallen meteor that fell years ago. Due to meteors having earth in them, when an arrow is shot from it, the arrow also inflicts Earth damage.

Other Equipment: N/A

Main Sin: Lust

Personality: Andrew is a caring person, but can be idiotic at times. He is quick to rush into things. Whenever he sees an attractive female, he will automatically start flirting with her. This does change, when he gets to know the girl, though. After he flirts with the girl, he moves quickly.

Other: N/A

Other Equipment: A long bow and a scimitar
Main Sin: Impatience (zero tolerance)
Personality: Lashes out at anyone who angers him, due to his young age, has poor physical strength compared to others, so he lost most of his fights with older people, this is why he stays away from the group.

Doesn't really care about anything due to his visions showing him things about anything he cares about. Has so much potential as he is very smart and talented, but never ever tries anything.
 
Blitzrider- not just yet.

GD- Accepted.

Baba O- Impatience isn't a sin, the only two left are Gluttony/Waste and Greed. Otherwise, your character is also a bit young, with most of the other characters being around 20. I'd accept it if he was at least seventeen, or had a reason to be on the adventure, but right now those are two things to fix.
 
Name: Grey Ironwood
Gender: male
Age: 28
Appearance:
Weapon: A staff with a crescent moon shaped blade at the end and a chain connecting the two when the blade is detached. Grey can use combative magic with this staff also. When the blade touches something, it quick-freezes and slowly becomes encased in ice. He can also create acupuncture needles out of ice that act as melee weapons and can help with emergency healing by cooling wounds, allowing his to operate without worrying about gushing blood.
Other Equipment: He carries plenty of medical supplies and camping equipment.
Main Sin: Greed
Personality: A man with Scizophrenia. One moment he is a calm, pleasant person that is always there for you, but sometimes he'll black out and turn into Oshini and hurt people on the slightest provocation. He is also greedy, manipulative, cheep, and belittles women, making them do all house work just because they're women.
Other: He is fluent in many dead languages. He is also skilled in the art of persuasion and deception.
