| Post subject: | A Tainted Heart.. |
The Heart of the World. A strange phenomenon, the very power source that keeps the world of Vahaera, and it's many inhabitants and creatures, alive. Crystalline in appearance, in varying hues and shades, it is alight with a strong, white glow from the inside, making the light come out prismatic. Revered over the milennia, it seems to be alive, after a fashion, drawing power from, and giving power to, those that were chosen before birth. These 'Chosen Ones' are gifted with strange, supernatural abilities, varying in accordance with the five main Elements, Water, Earth, Air, Fire, and Spirit. The first 'Chosen Ones' founded an order to guard, defend, and keep the Heart(which is buried in a massive cavern, several miles beneath the earth's surface) purified. For ages upon ages, nothing disturbed the Heart's functioning, until in the year 5,968 of the Beyaat Era..that's when things went wrong. Rumor began circulating that the Heart had been tainted by some dark force, and many scoffed at the idea. Nothing or no one was powerful enough to taint the purity of the Heart...Such was the common belief, but all were to be proved wrong. Many of the Vharad i'l Zheen(Guardians of the Heart) became ill with a strange sickness that made their gifts go haywire. Many of them died from misdirected metamorphoses, and a handful(most of them aligned with Spirit) simply vanished. Turmoil marked these sicknesses, and it became agreed that the rumors were true..something had tainted the Heart, making it hostile at best..and downright destructive at the worst. Weather changes were common in those early days of the Bleak century, the most common being drought, then torrential rain, then snow, within the space of just a few days. For nigh on a century, things continued this way, until something changed..and the Heart was somehow, miraculously, purified again. Precautions were immediately set down to ensure the Tainting would never happen again, and now, nearly 10,000 year later..it seems the precautions are failing. Weather changes are occuring, Vharad(Guardians) are dying left and right, and pandemonium reigns. It is rumored that a small group has been chosen, a group that will have to ensure that the Heart is purified again..a daunting task, what with war, always nearing, is now drawing closer fast, with the races arguing over the source of the Taint, as well as the method of ridding the world of it. Races: Humans: The most common, numerous people, living an average of 100 years, 110 at the very most. Very short lived in comparison with the other races. Elves: Immortal, they are known as the Fairest folk, with pointed ears and very graceful, often slender, bodies. Dwarves: Stout and hardy in comparison to the other races, they are known for their affinity with the earth, and they dwell deep in various mountain ranges. Vilrae: Immortal, these humanoids have pointed ears(with very elongated points, extending about two inches), and are always fair-haired(meaning they have red, white, silver, or blond hair..never any other color.). They are often called the Warriors, since most, if not all, of their folk are trained with some sort of weapon. Many of these also make up the bulk of the Vharad i'l Zheen, because of their willingness to defend the Heart. Bestaed: Humanoids, though most bear 'deformities', such as animal heads, limbs, etc., all due to a long-gone experiment by very..controversional Elemental experimentalists. The one compensation of these people are their pure brute strength and enhanced senses. (There are other races, but these are the most common by far.) Abilities: Fire elementalists: -Control, creation, or manipulation of fire(counts as one ability) -Assimilation into fire(transforming into a fire form, best used to pass through flames unharmed) -Control/manipulation of body temperature -Disintegration(superheating a substance/body, until it disentigrates to ashes and dust) Water elementalists: -Control, creation, or manipulation of water(counts as one ability) -Assimilation into water(transforming into a water form, such as water[literally], a sea creature, fog, mist, etc.) -Weather control -Healing(self explanatory..healing of injuries or sicknesses, both major and minor) Earth elementalists: -Control, creation, or manipulation of earth(counts as one ability) -Assimilation into earth(transforming into an earth form, such as a tree, any animal, etc.) -Plant enhancement(speeding growth, healing sickness, etc.) -Communication with animals(ability to communicate with and understand animals, both wild and tame) Air elementalists: -Control or manipulation of air (counts as one ability) -Assimilation into air(such as wind, used to mask one's prescence anywhere) -Control or manipulation of the winds -Removal of air(the ability to draw out all of the air in a specific place, usually as a way to slake a fire quickly, or to kill someone effortlessly) Spirit elementalists: -Control or manipulation of spirits(souls of any race, counts as one ability) -Assimilation into spirit form(removal of the spirit from the body, to pose as a ghost/spirit) -Possession(ability to enter someone else's body in spirit form and control them from the inside.) -Mind control(ability to control someone's mind, either partially or completely) Light elementalists: -Control or manipulation of light(counts as one ability) -Assimilation into light form(transformation into light[literally], used to hide effortlessly from danger or trouble) -Piercing light(transformation of light into a physical weapon) -Banish darkness(manipulation of light, used to banish darkness and shadows completely) Shadow elementalists: -Control or manipulation of shadow(counts as one ability) -Assimilation into shadow(transformation into shadow, used to blend into shadow flawlessly) -Piercing darkness(transformation into darkness or shadow into a physical weapon) -Banish light(manipulation of shadow, used to banish light completely) Element-neutral abilities: -Telekenesis(movement of an object without any physical contact with said object) -Telepathy(mental communication/projection) -Precognition(the ability to predict future events, strength being the basis for the accuracy and clarity of the predictions) -Shapeshifting(the ability to change one's appearance, such as facial features, body build, hair/eye color, etc.) -Creation(the supernatural ability to create an object from nothing at all, whether it be a creature, 'person', or item, such as a weapon, food, clothing, etc. -Illusion(the ability to create a sensory illusion, whether it be sound, sight, etc. Good for distractions in a battle, or a similar situation.

Ok..we've got one too many, I see. And something I didn't specify with the Elementalists..you can only choose abilities I've listed under the Elements to use as gifts with them, or the Element-neutral abilities I've yet to add. |
