Tales of the Hunt sign-in thread

[Saturo]

So, me and Azu had a little discussion, and thought that we should probably have a sign-in thread for TotH, both to organize it a bit and to be able to get confirmation that everyone has read the guides. (Gumballs, if you want to handle this, just let me know.) So, this will be the thread for that. We would also like everyone who starts to read the guides posted by Azu and Golden, to make the RP more fun for everyone. This will be the thread for reading the guides and posting a little "I've read the guides", and of course also to post your character backstory.

1. Read the RP-guides posted up. They're a great read, and following them will get you prepared for any RP.

When you have read them, please confirm it by adding a "I've read the guides" at the top of your post.

2. Post your character's background! This is something simple, like Name, Class, Distinguishing Feature's and a little backstory. Please also include any pet, minion or mount that accompanies them as well. Obviously, our character's won't know this, but it helps the RP move along, and playing with someone whose character you know a bit is much more fun.

So, yeah. If there is anything else you feel I should have included, let me know.

Looking back at Indi's intro, I have the sudden feeling that it's probably easier for me to just rewrite it. XD
All righty then...huge list of my characters incoming (except for Alarial, hers will be really tiny because I have no background for her. >_>).

I've read the guides. <3

Name: Alarial
Race/Class: Night Elf Priest
Background/Random Facts: Alarial is average height for a night elf, with light purple skin and long white hair. She always wears priestess robes and is often seen as being very motherly and caring. It takes a lot to make her angry. Her stormsaber, Lyka, frequently accompanies her. She uses a white armored gryphon named Avalanche when she needs to fly.

Name: Indigosa
Race/Class: High Elf Death Knight
Background: Easiest way to describe Indi's background is through her own story: http://forums.wow-petopia.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=7259
Indi is average height for a high elf, has deathly white skin, glowing, blue eyes, and keeps her icy blue hair in a pony tail. She has the death knight runes tattooed on her body and is almost always wearing her plate armor and rune weapon. She often appears cold and calculating, sometimes heartless, but she is actually kind, caring, and fiercely loyal to those she trusts. She typically tries to avoid fighting as her biggest weakness is lack of control over her own powers.
Indi travels with her two death knight mounts--Moonstalker the deathcharger and Khaz the bone gryphon.

Name: Rosaliah Farseeker (aka Red Rose)
Race/Class: Blood Elf Hunter
Physical Description: Rose is average height for a blood elf, has red hair that she keeps in a ponytail, very pale skin, and has her ear tips pierced. She is usually seen wearing simple black leather with red roses stitched into it and she will put on mail (also with red roses etched into it) for tough battles. Usually seen with an animal companion of some sort.
Brief History (Optional): Rosaliah was an only child--one of those only children who were very bratty and always got what they wanted. she grew up condescending and patronizing, much the way her parents were. she spent time training with the rangers of Silvermoon, but when she tired of their ways, she sought training as a bounty hunter and mercenary. when her own parents' bounty appeared, revealing them as traitors of Silvermoon, loyal to Kael'thas, she accepted their bounty and killed them, leaving red roses on their bodies.
It is from this, her first job, that she became known as the Red Rose. Rosaliah enjoyed the nick name people gave her and played along with it, only going by the name Rose and having red roses added to her armor and weapons. She also continued to leave red roses on the corpses of her victims.
Brief Personality (Optional): Rose is generally quite foreboding and condescending. She has no love for anyone or anything other than the animals she travels with, and she makes this known. She will manipulate people through any means possible if it provides an end to a means for her. There is no "good" or "evil" for her; only where the next job comes from.

(Shamelessly ninjaed Rose's from when I brought her into the RP. >_>)

Name:Kethtaz
Race/Class: Worgen Death Knight
Background: In his human form, Kethtaz has dark, rotted looking skin, long black hair and a black goatee. In his worgen form, he has black fur and a black mane. Like Indi, he almost always wears his plate armor and carries his rune weapon. Kethtaz looks much more menacing than he actually is. He is very calm and collected; very much Indi's opposite.

Kethtaz is a former swordsman of Gilneas. After being bit by a worgen, he was thrown out of the Greymane Wall and left to die. Indi found him on her travels and attempted to nurse him back to health. She left him when they both thought he was dying. Kethtaz lived, becoming a worgen. He was captured by Arugal and forced to serve in Shadowfang Keep. After finally escaping the Keep, he had a bad run in with the Lich King and was turned into a death knight.

(That's a very VERY rough background for Kethtaz so it may have some timeline errors.)

[Saturo]

Might as well, we can organize the character's better. When I get the time to dig around for my introduction-posts I'll update this post as well.

[TygerDarkstorm]

Added mine up thar. ^_^ *points up*

[Lupis]

Lets see. (And I've read the guides. )

Luare
Night elf druid
Random facts
-Only knows two spells - Shapeshift Cat and Hibernate.
-Trained by Malaron
-Looks like a Winterspring Pridelord in cat form.
-Has a Winterspring Tiger mount named Winter's Bite.
Background
-Brought up by a night elf couple that trained Winterspring Tigers, she left to become a druid once she realized she had the potential.

Faron and Vallrok
Wolf electromancer and Troll hunter
Random facts
-Faron is the brains - Vallrok is just his puppet, mindless.
-Both part of the Cult of the Twilight Hammer.
Background
-Faron was part of an experament to test if someone could take over the mind of an animal and control it. While he was possessing a wolf, his body - and the rest of the Cultists at the camp - were killed by Vallrok. The troll then tamed wolf-Faron, who used the Spirit Bond formed to take over Vallrok's mind.

Dalinda
Undead ice mage
Random facts
-Poison and Plague brewer.
-Wears an Argent Crusade tabard for the protection from Alliance it brings.
Background
-Brewed poison while she was alive, and continues to do so - even though it ended up causing her transformation into a Forsaken.

[Azunara]

(I made the guides...But I've read them.

I'd also like to add to anyone interested in the future: We aren't doing this to be mean, or exclusive. We're doing this to help you. If you post your background, we can help you if you need help. That's why we're having you read the guides, as well. So we know that you've done a little bit research. All of us when we started were new, so I know this could seem overwhelming, or mean, but trust me: It's for your benefit. Moving on:)

Name: Azunara Wildheart
Race/Class: Night Elf Druid (Though some would argue Savagekin, due to her near constant feline form.)
Background: Azunara is rather a young druid, barely old enough to fend for herself in the wilds. She learned a lot as she went, figuring stuff out and doing what she had too to survive. Her father was killed when Azunara was younger, by a green dragon when he and other druid tried to cleanse it of its corruption. When he was killed, Azunara's mother went a bit mad, and couldn't take care of Azu, so the druid went on her own. She had a few run-ins with a rather evil gnome named Darathin, so she's rather wary of gnomes and would prefer seeing them all dead.
Personality: Azunara is young, and it definitely shows in her actions. She's rather upbeat and trusting, but she becomes savage in combat when her friends are threatened. She sees her allies as family, not really having a very stable one of her own. She travels mainly with Kozri, but sometimes with her cousin, a hunter named Firewing. She wears four scales tied around her wrist, (Bronze, Red, Azure, and Black) and a silver moon necklace.
Good stuff to know about Azu: She is an alchemist. Give her herbs, she'll make potions.
She can heal, but hates doing so.
She is usually seen in her feline form, the white NE druid cat.

Name: Kozridormu (Kozri)
Race/Class: Bronze Dragon (Human Rogue)
Physical Description/Personality: Kozri is a bronze drake, but tries to keep as few people aware of this as possible. On a normal day, he is just your average human rogue. Very little is suspicious or noticable about him. He has dark hair, and the only thing that called unusal is the set of scales he wears around his wrist: A red, an azure, and a black one. In drake form, he's still nothing too special. Lithe, quick, and bronze-scaled. He just looks like any other bronze drake. Kozri is a lot more cautious than Azu tends to be, but once you've shown you're to be trusted, he's not too bad a person to hang around with. His sense of humor is questionable, but he's a nice person. Unless you threaten Azu or anyone else whose his ally. Then he will stop at nothing to tear you apart.
Background: Kozri was selected to inspect CoS when there were rumors of Infinite presence. His team was killed except for him, where he was tortured and nearly corrupted into an Infinite. Azunara saved him, though, when she and a few others were sent to pcik up where Kozri and his allies had failed. Sent by Chromie, they fought off the Corrupter and Azunara made the first move to see if the bronze was okay. Grateful, he pledged his service to the young druid, promising to protect her in any way he could.
Good things to know about Koz:
-He only takes drake form in combat or to move to other places. Beyond that, human form. And he tends not to mention his true form.
-He can do roguey things. Like sap or pickpocket or stuff like that.

[Gumballs]

No, go ahead. Thanks for actually making this thread Saturo. I apologize for my lack of interest in the RP after I created it... been dealing with too many RL issues to even bother with RP anymore. But I'm happy to see its still running and others are enjoying it and I can edit the front post of the RP if you want it to link to this thread.

[Saturo]

Name: Scourgelord Decay (Was: Anarial Lightbringer) (Not related to Uther of course, it's a common elven name :D )
Race/Class: High Elf Death Knight (Was: High Elf Paladin)
Location: Dalaran
Physical Description: Due to not having a bloodflow, she is incredibly pale. She has her blue-white hair in a ponytail, and she typically cowers herself in a large hooded cloak which she wears over her armor. Her old runesword was shattered, but she has since made new ones, and now fights using two one-and-a-half hand swords made out of primordial Saronite. She typically keeps these swords in half-scabbards. Her appearance is still fair, even with hints of elven beauty, but any kind of attractiveness is ruined by her obvious undeath.
Brief History (Optional): Decay's story is told in this bad story of mine, in case you're interested. http://forums.wow-petopia.com/viewtopic ... ilit=decay

TL:DR version: Anarial was amongst the defenders of the Sunwell (from the undead campaign, as you might remember), and one of the first to fall. She was later raised as a Death Knight, was trained at Naxxramas, did Scourge-stuff, and was assigned as an instructor to Acherus when the Knights of the Ebon Blade were freed.
Brief Personality (Optional): Anarial was a friendly, outgoing person, right up until the Third War. Having the allies from her party of adventurers slain around her brought her down into a depression, and later, being killed didn't help much with that. When she regained her freedom she was conflicted, and didn't really know which side to fight for. The conflict on whether or not she did the right thing, on whether or not she deserves to "live" still reappears at times, but she's trying to go back to the elf she used to be, whilst simultaneously taking distance from it, which becomes obvious in that she calls herself by her Scourge-name, Decay.

Decay is a highly skilled strategist, and a moderate swordsman. Her chilling blows can freeze bone, and then shatter it, all with a single, quick strike. Her necromantic skills leave much to be desired, but she is able to raise minions from the fallen. Sort of.

-------------------------------------------------------

Name: Saturo
Race/Class: Gnomish Warlock
Location: Most likely Ironforge
Physical Description: Looks friendly. Gyrocopter's bags are usually packed with various tools and weaponry. Wears a darkly coloured robe, with spikes on the shoulderarmor. Wears goggles that she tucks up to her forehead when not in combat. Has a rather large sword embossed with dark runes slung over her back.
Brief History (Optional): A powerful Warlock and Necromancer. Is rumored to be associated with various "evils", such as the Twilight's Hammer and the Scourge. Her Runesword seems to confirm an association with at least the Knight's of the Ebon Blade. She has had some Mage training too, as evidenced by her ability to use Blink and Invisibility. Knows how to fire a rifle, but has no real skill with it.
Brief Personality (Optional): Well, your characters probably wouldn't know this, but okay, whatever. Evil genius kind of person, and a very powerful warlock. Can raise the corpses of her enemies to fight again under her control. Not very trustworthy. Ever.

[TygerDarkstorm]

After looking at your guys' I feel like I have too many characters. >_>;

[Azunara]

I had way too many in the other RPs. I only use Azu and Koz cause they're familiar and if I have too many more, I'll end up with forgotten, neglected characters. That happens a lot.

[Saturo]

I have Stereo, Nus and Korwen (who's making a comeback with a new possie!)...

[TygerDarkstorm]

I'm still contemplating the idea of taking Alarial out (through death or other means). Been coming up with a new character concept in my mind (terrible, I know >_<) of either a hunter with a really intelligent wolf pet, or a shaman of some sort. Dunno. Me brain needs to stop thinking of new character ideas. >_>

[TygerDarkstorm]

Name: Lahzuli
Race/Class: Worgen Savagekin
Location: Stormwind when not travelling.
Physical Description: Always in either cat or bear form (mostly cat). Her cat form is a light gray color with a dark gray mane, tail, and feet. She has reddish-orange eyes and wears leather bands around her wrists, elbows, neck and back legs. The band around her neck has her name inscribed in it.
Brief History (Optional): http://forums.wow-petopia.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=9280
Brief Personality (Optional): Lahzuli can't speak in her animal forms, she has to use Julianne to communicate. She is wary of everything and everyone around her until she establishes whether they are friend or foe. She's typically very calm and reserved, but will occasionally beserk if something serious happens to Julianne. She tends to act like a sentient hunter's pet to Julianne.

Name: Julianne Sonoma
Race/Class: Human Hunter
Location: Stormwind when not travelling.
Physical Description: Julianne is average height for a human female, has fair colored skin, hazel eyes, and shoulder length golden blonde hair. She has an athletic build and can usually be seen wearing either travelling leather or light mail. She usually has either a bow or gun strung across her back.
Brief History (Optional): See Lahzuli's.
Brief Personality (Optional): Julianne is watchful, like Lahzuli, but a little more carefree and lighthearted than the druid. She does all the speaking for the pair, taking the druid's advice very seriously. Ultimately she leads the two and makes the decisions. She has a deep respect for the wild-life around her and prefers to be within nature.

[Azunara]

Edit: Hai. Azu lied here.
