Interesting plot line. Sounds like it could be fun; after all, subterfuge and deception really are my forte.

However, this may be a foolish question, but one that must be asked nonetheless. Custom characters are allowed, right?

>.>

[Tera253]

if by custom character you mean OC, then yes.
there are only a few things I can think of that I wouldn't allow, but they're nitpicky guidelines that I don't want top make a TL;DR post for.

Terarerarera I shall request to join

(oh remember tera, you have another RP which you need to post in!)

[Tera253]

alrighty. that will work.
though I do need one more thing out of you (not your fault, since I just added it in)

I need his location (ie: where in the world he is right now). That way I know who he'll meet, what scenarios he'll deal with, yaddey yaddey yaddey...

[and ye. I'll post =P]

[Marik]

Name: Wolf
Gender: Male
Age: 13
Bending: N/A
Nationality: Earth Kingdom, technically.
Appearance: http://i407.photobucket.com/albums/pp15 ... 1258165450
Except that instead of a shirt, he wears a soft leather vest. The scars visible on his face and arms are from his adventure with Kido.
Personality: Those who knew the boy when he was younger (ie, Tera) will still recognize his wondering curiosity and his joy to simply be alive, but he has become much more distrusting, due to an adventure with his brother, Kido.
History: The boy was the son of two nobles from Ba Sing Se, but he was lost to them on a journey through the jungles. The young lad was found and adopted into a family and has lived with them ever since, aside from a brief adventure at the South Pole with a powerful firebender, a young earthbender and a tough man.
Strengths/Weaknesses: Very good fighter with his knives (an undetermined number) and can track anything anywhere. He has become shy and suspicious of humans in general, which causes him to get into some fights that might not be winnable.
Other Notes: Wolf seems to have a strange affinity to animals. He seems to be able to understand them and vise versa.
Location: Anywhere

[Tera253]

[hmm... perhaps some of Wolf's travelling companions might make a cameo... or something bigger. heh, heh...]

darn. with a character like that I might need a little influence from you as to where to put him, mostly because he doesn't seem like the kind of person that would be in or near human settlements.

Otherwise, I might place him on Kyoshi Island. That's not saying it will be bad, nor is it saying it'd be good. if you're leaving the decision up to me, that was the place I found that I might be able to put him to good use.

oh, and another thing... (probably already stated this) multiple characters are allowed.

--no, this does not mean I'm gonna wait until I have x amount of characters
--yes, Wolf is accepted.
--Ieka will be acepted as soon as Nev tells me where in the world he wants to be (if you don't care Nev, you will likely be in either the Western Air Temple or the Fire Nation, depending on if he's gonna be a good guy or a bad guy.

as soon as I get that information, I think I can start off. and of course, the more, the merrier.

if there is anything else that you think needs addressed, just let me know. there's a lot of holes in this thing (in my opinion) as it stands.

[Marik]

I don't have a problem with the Kyoshi Island. Unless its going to get blown up or something...

But barring mass destruction, yeah, that works fine for me.

[Tiny]

Name: Tsai
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Bending: Fire
Nationality: Fire
Appearance: Red skin-tight, long-sleeved shirt, with a dark brown vest over the shirt. Her pants are tucked into typical FN-style boots. She generally wears a belt for storing money, daggers, and some healing herbs. She has a scabbard for a sword, but she lost it a while ago. She's currently saving up for a good sword. She has pale skin typical of the FN, and amber eyes.
Personality: Tsai is very logical and calculating. She enjoys puzzles and games. Generally, she feels very lost, and is trying to find her place in life. Tsai is calm most of the time, even when fighting. She enjoys battling others, because she sees it as a game. She looks at life like it's a puzzle, and will do anything to find the answer.
History: Tsai was born to a family who were desperately wishing for a boy. Because she is female, she was looked down upon severely. Eventually, her uncle took pity on her and taught her how to fight. From that point on, she was - for all intents and purposes - raised as a guy. This has had a severe effect on her life, especially after puberty. Her parents refused to follow the regional tradition of marrying off their girls as soon as possible, and sent her off into the world alone. She wandered around the Fire Nation for a few years, become accustomed to having to fend for herself. Along the way, she became more aware of her femininity, but still acted like a guy for the most part. Because of this odd combination, she tries to be experienced in quite a few trades, from blacksmithing to herbal healing. Of course, she is not specifically adept at anything but fighting.
Strengths: Close combat, firebending. She is fairly adept at herbal healing and some bladework.
Weaknesses: Claustrophobic, sometimes thinks things out too much, underestimates people often.
Other Notes: Nah.
Current Location in the world*: Wherever

[Tera253]

@Marik: whoops... too late I joke. Kyoshi Island is actually on its way to becoming kickass. soooo...

@Tiny: you left the star in "current location in the world"...
hmm... I might put you in either the City of the Red Maiden (Fire Fountain City) or Gaoling. since I instated the "alignment" part of the profile after yours was submitted, I'm re-reading your profile and thinking she's sort of neutral at this point. if you have a direction you want her to go in (towards good or towards evil) jsut let me know.

and I'm getting ideas for Marik... might be able to write up a post by tonight if I can think properly after all that stupid bacon and the end results thereof.

~Azula~

[Tera253]

another post for Marik up!

and I added a few more characters [NPCs] to the main thread. If any of you have suggestions [or things that you think I should be doing better, be it with my writing style, amount of detail or lack thereof, etc.] please let me know. Like I said... I'm no SKY.

that aside, I'm starting to think up stuff for Nev and tiny... I think I'll have Nev's character appear in Gaoling, where crime runs amok in the local outskirts, and where stone-cold badasses like Li Chan Sanaki and Bei Fong Toph sped their days idling around, waiting for someone to beat up.

well, not quite THAT extreme, but that's where they usually linger.

as for tiny's character, She'll likely start at the City of the Red Maiden [better known canonically as the Fire Fountain City. I've got a story for why the name was changed, which I'll reveal when the time is right.]

soooooo... with that in mind,posts will likely be up tomorrow if I cna think straight enough (and get the essay done that I need to write by tomorrow at 5 >.>)
