[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 2992720, member: 63"] First off, is everyone still free to make it? Second, if you are picky, call dibs on one of the characters below. Gender can be swapped if you’re interested in a character but uncomfortable playing the opposite sex. I’m cool either way. Also, each of the characters hails from a different nation, and most of those nations are loosely styled after real European nations, in case you’re looking for inspiration in roleplaying and accents. Elfaivar – Elf nation, Germany. Ber – Orc nation, Spain (or Mexico). Crisillyir – Human and gnome nation, Italy. Danor – Human nation, France. Drakr – Dwarf nation, Russian. Risur – Human nation, England. [b][size=3]Characters[/size][/b][size=3][/size] [list][*][b]Captain Ariel Capilla.[/b] [i]Half-Orc Cleric (Luck, Travel) 20.

But instead of turning over the airship, she destroyed the facility and killed the Obscurati who staffed it. Fearing that the Obscurati were behind the war that was slowly destroying both nations, Captain Capilla named her ship the [i]Águila Caída[/i], assembled a crew, and set out to bring down the society of shadows.
