Caitlin, Impala...I have some questions for you guys...antonia and I are collabing her Korona Banphrionsa of Ӕldingar with my Dominus of Xuin. We were considering an engagement long ago before the founding Xuin between the Korona Banphrionsa and the Obshta. At his birth, Markus was seen by the Patiri Brak to hold great power in his future, because the future is never clear she never saw the darkness that would come with his power. Then the two were engaged and well we are considering making so that for some reason the Kralitsa broke the engagement of the two which led to a broken hearted Markus to turn dark and create Vampires.

Ok so then should I make my Patiri Brak older? Because right now she is about half the age of Markus. Or did she hear about it from the previous Patiri Brak?

Oh yeah I really like the idea by the way

Oh right then it can be an issue of the previous ones.

I can make her older. I don't mind. I just kinda closed my eyes and pressed buttons to get her age lol

understandable but note that even immortal they don't need to be too old...I'll set up some time stamps on a few things int he Plot section.

Ok

Um, not exactly but close...He was deemed great and darkness of his future was unseen. We were considering that when they came upon the Patiri Brak to bless their engagement that she saw their children would be dark beings and instead of telling the couple she said she would have to console herself and the gods for a bit. While all the while the Patiri Brak raced to the Kralista and informed her that darkness would surely rise should the two be allowed to procreate. The Kralista and the entire kingdom will fall at the hands of their offspring. So naturally wanting grandchildren she could love she would break the engagement off.

what do you think?

The plot me and Antonia were discussing:

Markus was once an Obshta to the kingdom of Ӕldingar. He fell in love with the Korona Banphrionsa. They were engaged to be married. The Patiri Brak saw him in birth to do great things within a great kingdom. Given the future can always change and is never clear she did not see the evil's that were due to come through him or her own actions.
Markus and his bride-to-be went forward to the Patiri Brak and asked their marriage to be blessed. What if secrets were held from them? The Patiri Brak didn't want to upset the Korona Banphrionsa and instead simply said something about consulting the gods about such a bondage of two loves, but instead told the Kralista that their marriage will harbor dark offspring that could bring an end to the peace held within the kingdom. The Kralista knew this was not something she would desire and forced the engagement off.
This would naturally send Markus into a fit and rage with his rather obsessive side and it could cast him into practicing the dark arts. By gathering followers he vowed that the Kralista and her kingdom will never cast lovers apart again as they will one day rule under him. The creation of Vampires was done in a summoning of a dark spirit and then the laws against men came into effect as the Vampires were banished from the kingdom.
Markus became Dominus of Xuin the kingdom he had helped found after being the sole creator of a new race of Immortals. This led him and his kind from the kingdom of Ӕldingar as the Kralista banished them and created the laws against males. Markus was left banished with his new race of beings and they found their kingdom in the ruins of where they all began.

Witches like Vampires who were once witches will age until they choose not to.
A Vampire who is turned does not age form the point they were turned, but a Witch can choose simply when tos top aging physically.

I like it

Oooh Maybe after the whole disaster with Markus the Patiri Brak, Vivian's parents were going to have her and thats when she saw who was going to take over from her because she didn't want to be the Patiri Brak any more

thanks...alright so the Kralista broke it off because of what the Patiri Brak told her and she needed to protect her seat of power and her kingdom and it's people and possibly the world form the grandchildren that would create disaster for everyone. Only in the end her choice broke her daughter's heart and only stirred up a great problem all of it's own. So it seemed no matter what choice she had made it would have ended in disaster and she couldn't bare to have her daughter apart of it or something like that? I mean the Kralista is your charrie that's why we had to get your thoughts we don't know how she would take something or what measures she would take to stop something.

Impala that sounds excellent. The past Patiri Brak couldn't bare to continue breaking hearts she was far too kind for that so when she discovered her replacement naturally she was happy that it was someone elses problem.

np ^_^

Also for reference to others as well Given in Solum their is no real such thing as nationalities I had a pm question arise about their children having to look Asian in a since.
I told the asker that for as long as there are minor details of similarity it shows no true form of actually mattering. For instance we can say the first husband was a bit scandinavian looking the same as my current character for her.
This allows the children to be more diverse in appearance because like myself the person asking the question enjoys making things look related in physical details simply for sanity's sake clearly.

Impala if you are desiring to make the crown prince you will need someone who looks a little older. William Moseley is 27 in reality, so if you were to sue him as your faceclaim you will need to use his older pics not when he was a boy but as he is now a man. They are mortals their children aren't perfected in appearance seeming to be 17 at 25. Keep that in mind...so either use older version pics or a different older faceclaim.

PERSONAGE INFORMATION

{۝} Personality {۝} Damian is intelligent, charming, colorful, and intuitive. He is highly observant and has a knack for anticipating the behavior of others. He is very analytical by nature and while he can be eccentric at times, he calculates his moves carefully before making them. He is very good with words and can convince others to do what he wants, but he also tries to avoid being manipulative, unless he needs to for the greater good.
Often, Damian spends a great deal of energy fighting an inner struggle to balance selfishness with selflessness. Part of him wants to save the world, but the practical side also wants to make sure he and his family is taken care of. Because he never acts until he is ready, Damian can spend a great deal of time poring over decisions, which can be unhealthy because he gets stressed out easily.

PART II


{۝} Fatal Flaw {۝} Selfishness & Selflessness: Damian is always stuck between two worlds. The one he desires for himself and the one he desires for everyone else. He can never fully decide on pleasing himself or others and never makes a decision as to whether he takes a reward and blows it or shares it.
(view spoiler)[
"Evil Cannot Comprehend Good? Hardly! I understand the value of what good deeds I do, and how much I deserve in return for the most trifling sacrifice I give. People should be grateful to me. No, offsetting my mistakes by the good I've done is not sufficient; it's just ingratitude not to give me more, which is an injury.
And injury is terrible — when it's done to me. I know how evil it is that people Come to Gawk, and that they're lying when they say they didn't realize the character was there. I know how entitled I am to rescue — certainly before those Innocent Bystanders. I even understand the evil of breaking bargains that the other person hadn't agreed to, but unfortunately, I had assumed they would; little equals the rage of those proud few of us whose offer that We Can Rule Together is turned down — or a Femme Fatale turned Woman Scorned. And of course I know what punishment should be meted out for it.
Not even my True Companions are safe; they exist to be loyal to me, not vice versa. Indeed, I may sacrifice them for my own amusement. That's what they're there for. I may, of course, be angry at their harm or death at the hands of others, but that is because it removes a useful resource from our plans, or infringes on my authority. (As a consequence, a frequent source of inexplicable Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal or The Dog Bites Back. Why would they ever want to leave me?!) Similarly, if I reveal my intentions of betraying my superiors, and my subordinates revolt against me, I'll be shocked by the Rebellious Rebel's treachery — don't they know how good things will be when I succeed? The hero's coterie, on the other hand, merely provides a good source of Revenge by Proxy. Romantic relationships are much the same, those from whom I crave affection must give all their love while we just take.
Conversely, doing me a good turn may result in a wide degree of gratitude and "reward" for my helper. It can range from understandably none at all to generous offers of a quick and painless death. More benevolent overlords, as of course I am, may offer a Shiny New Australia for a good manicure, or a lifetime of friendship. Of course, I might just be an Entitled Bastard and expect the world to always forgive and oblige me whenever I do wrong... but how often is that? Then there's times where I, regretfully, simply kill our benefactor; how dare they see me as weak?!
Nothing shocks me more than Shut Up, Hannibal!, Talk to the Fist, or Kirk Summation; still more when someone says Get It Over With or Boring Insult. What could be more interesting than what I have to say?
Milder forms may have an elaborate justification for why injuries to me are so serious and my good deeds are more generous than anyone else. Or I may attempt to Buy Them Off... if it's worth it. On the other hand, the very wise and powerful don't even comprehend that someone might judge my actions by the same standards as those with less potential for greatness. But me on the other hand, I may show my lack of evil by admitting that my behavior and my enemies' can be judged by the same standard.
Can be either totally selfish, arrogant, and greedy or, for a Well-Intentioned Extremist, totally oblivious to the idea that others can grant the same importance to their cause that they do.
I may express the view that what I do is Dirty Business, but my sympathy is exclusively for myself and I deserve this sympathy. "Having to do such horrible things, God rest my soul. The sufferings of my victims never disturb me - and why should I care about such bugs?"
I might declare myself to be Above Good and Evil, with my affairs being more important than petty morality. The declaration never applies when I have suffered an injury. When things are really rolling, I may even declare myself above humanity and as (or above) gods."
(hide spoiler)] Damian does not fully understand the selfishness that he commits. He believes it to be a crime to not be at times and has defended it so.
{۞} Strengths {۞}
*Charismatic - Damian has a way with words and with that others find intriguing. His confidence, quick thought and ability to connect disparate ideas in novel ways create a style of communication that is charming, even entertaining, and informative at the same time.
*Knowledgeable - Damian rarely passes up a good opportunity to learn something new, especially abstract concepts. This information isn't usually absorbed for any planned purpose as with dedicated studying, he just finds it fascinating and uses things to his advantage if the information can be of use later on.
*Original - Having little attachment to tradition,
Damian is able to discard existing systems and methods and pulls together disparate ideas from his extensive knowledge base, with a little raw creativity to hold them together, to formulate bold new ideas. If presented with chronic, systemic problems and given rein to solve them, Damian responds with unabashed glee.
{۞} Weaknesses {۞}
*Insensitive - Being so rational, Damian often misjudges others feelings and pushes his debates well past others' tolerance levels. He doesn't really consider emotional points to be valid in such debates either, which magnifies the issue tremendously.
*Intolerant - Unless people are able to back up their ideas in a round of mental sparring, Damian is likely to dismiss not just the ideas but the people themselves. Either a suggestion can stand up to rational scrutiny or it's not worth bothering with.
*Can Find It Difficult to Focus - The same flexibility that allows Damian to come up with such original plans and ideas makes him readapt perfectly good ones far too often, or to even drop them entirely as the initial excitement wanes and newer thoughts come along. Boredom comes too easily for him, and fresh thoughts are the solution, though not always a helpful one.
{۞} Regrets {۞} He has none, but what he holds in his own selfish mind when sparks of selflessness react.
{۞} Accomplishments {۞} He pushed for gender equality in large strikes and parades until at last he took upon himself to be Pansexual making it impossible for anyone to compare genders with him.

BATTLE INFORMATION

{۝} Weapon of Choice {۝}None yet, his mother won't allow it.
{۞} Strengths {۞} he doesn't know, but his attitude seems to spark quite a fire in physical contact.
{۞} Weaknesses {۞} When using too much of his power at one time it takes a strain in battle and his hair turns white temporarily as hsi body attempts to reclaim itself.

{۝} Power's & Abilities {۝}
◘Atmokinesis - Weather Manipulation

INTENTIONAL OBJECTIVE INFORMATION

{۝} Goal(s) {۝} To achieve equality and peace in the kingdom's of Solum.
{۞} Drives and Motivations {۞} His own kingdom restricts males so he no longer can identify male and female. This pushes him to make peace with Xuin and bring forth no true difference between Witches and Vampires, both simply being Immortal.
{۞} How Damian plans to accomplish these goals {۞} They have yet to be fully thought out, but he plans to gain alliance with others from other kingdoms. He also plans to become a Vampire if he must to make his mother see reason.
{۞} How other people/kingdoms/ etc will be affected {۞}
With such a small and feeble thought out plan he can only think it affects his mother and family and hopefully peace in all of Solum.

BIOGRAPHY INFORMATION

{۝} Backstory {۝}Born to Jin and Himeko. He was the product of a loving relationship. Himeko was already Kralista at this time and he was their first child. Born a marvel to the people. He was perfect in everyway. Then three others came into the picture as time went on and the kingdom prospered and the Kralista seemed like a baby making goddess. Damian was already 1,893 when Himeko had her set of twins with his father. So they kept their children rather separated in age.
Damian was already 1,921 when his sister at last engaged herself with Markus. At that time he had a title as Korona Ruhtinas. Also in that age he was taught by the Obshta, Markus how to fight. Damian loved his mentor like an older brother, but when Markus met his younger sister, Severity their relationship grew distant and MArkus and his sister grew closer. Damian could not have been more enraged when they announced their engagement. A) Someone was hitching with his little sister. B) The one getting with her was in fact his, dear and possibly closer than friends, Mentor, Markus.
Damian spoke with his father Jin in objection to their engagement, but he was shot down. In a rage of rash action acted selfishly when he made plans to end his father's life. Fifty years after the engagement Damian at last created something deadly and quite dangerous just to simply inhale the fumes. He waited until Himeko and Jin were fast asleep when he poured the poison into his father's morning drink. It killed him slowly, but it did it's job. Damian held no regrets knowing that he would get what he wanted no matter what happened. Eventually, Damian began to work around the temples and in the Hall of Praise trying to understand what extra abilities existed for Witches to discover. He was envious of it all and desired such power for himself so that he may rule with great power, until Markus and his sister visited the temple only to be turned away for council with the gods. Severity and Markus had high hopes, but Damian was present and spoke with the Patiri Brak to discover what troubled her. When she told him he advised her to inform the Kralista immediately.
It was only days after before Markus was forbidden to ever see his sister again. However, something that Damian wasn't foreseeing was that he was also forbidden from ever coming into contact with any the Kralista's family. Damian made it storm for months on end with such a rage inside. Until he started sneaking out of the palace to see Markus. Markus taught him how to use Dark Black Magics and showed him many rituals that no Witch would ever dare on purpose.
Damian watched each ceremony and helped Markus gather followers as he still looked up to him like an older brother or even a father at times. He followed Markus blindly until his mother discovered the creatures Markus was creating and had become. Vampires were born and Damian remained in the Palace while so many were banished from Ӕldingar. Damian has taken a vow t bring the banished Witches back to the kingdom and reunite with Markus once more in hopes to be accepted as his ally and friend again.

(( You may want to delete the spam in this topic especially the charries that have already been moved and are in use, except for Sybil Morven of course she hasn't been completed yet. ))

in history you have in first sentence Seraphine instead of Seraphina you bounce between the two a lot...

I do like the over all concept very much though.

Coolio and I did the whole Seraphine and Seraphina thing as like a shortening of her name though it probably doesn't seem like it.

As for powers I will have to decline a fraction of them.
You need to stick with her personality as for powers and abilities.
(e.g.) Kralista Himeko: personality - Respectful; Wise; Fair; Dutiful; Kind; Protective; Complex; Determined; Emotional

{Melancholic} personality - consistency, conscientiousness, perseverance, punctuality, caution, resistance, responsibility, carefulness, firmness, reliability, sobriety, ambition, respectfulness, matter-of-factness...

Melancholic powers: All powers are (Light or Dark) no matter they still are what they are.
◘Geokinesis - Rock/Earth Manipulation
◘Ferrokinesis - Metal Manipulation
◘Chlorokinesis - Plant Manipulation
◘Crystallokinesis - Crystal Manipulation


Tsaritsa Seraphina: personality - Creative; Daring; Sedulity; Devotion; Merciful; Passionate; Manipulative; Deceptive; Unstableness; Indifference; Heartless; Temper; Picky; Black Seduction; Soul Sucking; Greedy

{Choleric} personality - vigorousness, zeal, enthusiasm, courage, decisiveness, power of creativity, daring, sedulity...
quarrelsomeness, irritability, urge to destroy everything, passion, immoderacy, jealousy, voraciousness, vindictiveness, violence, hate, anger, sudden ebullition...

{Sanguine} personality - lack of perseverance, dishonesty, gossipy, cunningness, backbiting, garrulousness, inconstancy, touchiness, prodigality...

She would be like her sister to the darker aspect yes? I would give her an element that best suits her darker aspects in personality.
Then give her a gift of rarity
Then complete with a vampiric ability.

Well in that case I was thinking something like....

Earth
Lightening
Darkness Manipulation depending. Although Himeko only has two powers so I assumed Seraphina would only have two.

Jacob wrote: "As for powers I will have to decline a fraction of them.

(e.g.) Kralista Himeko: personality - Respectful; Wise; Fair; Dutiful..."

I only put the ones above in her profile cause I hadn't decided yet cause she wasn't complete.

Oh I see, well I can allow one more for the Kralitsa as well, but it must be a Melancholic ability.

As for the Tsaritsa I would say two of her own either Melancholic or whatever and one vampiric ability of the same persona grade or an elder ability.

Hmmm I'll have to run them by you cause I'm not entirely sure what to choose and whats ok.

that's fine

Kralitsa - I was thinking I might add Light Manipulation

Tsaritsa - I was thinking I might have her have Darkness Manipulation; Lightening Manipulation and maybe Crystal Manipulation?

Okay for the Kralitsa, but for Tsaritsa I will have to say no because Crystal and Lightening are of two aspects I cannot allow that sorry. because crystal manipulation is Melancholic while lightning is Choleric

Oh Hmm I'll keep thinking then.

okay also do you know where Ic an fidn the complete vision that was seen about Markus and Sev gettign together I remember someone if not myself wrote it in rp or in topic and well Ic an't find it anywhere.

Hmmmm I think it may be in Viv's profile or Severity's profile if not I'll see if its where I think it might be.

Tsaritsa - I was thinking I might have her have Darkness Manipulation; Lightening Manipulation but I'm still thinking on the last one.

I don't think the actual vision was ever written out

Caitlin ❤Thing 5❤ wrote: "Tsaritsa - I was thinking I might have her have Darkness Manipulation; Lightening Manipulation but I'm still thinking on the last one."
okay that's fine as for the last one it would have to be something in the same category as lightning.

Okay I'll make it out right now then.

Jacob wrote: "Caitlin ❤Thing 5❤ wrote: "Tsaritsa - I was thinking I might have her have Darkness Manipulation; Lightening Manipulation but I'm still thinking on the last one."
okay that's fine as for the last o..."

I thought she was allowed to have one of her own though?

OH! How about earth manipulation?

Her own would be the center element...any other element would have to be connected, but since you are giving light to Kralitsa as well then I suppose it would be okay to have two challenging powers from her personality. So she would be able to have Darkness, Lightning, and her own element...personally I feel lightning should be her own element and

given I want personal elements to be in accord with personality.
Darkness is because she embodies darkness.

The Kralista has earth which is her element then she has telekinesis which is her power as kralista a mental power. She holds light due to being the embodiment of light.

Seraphine would be in example
Lightning - personal element fits personality. as she fits more to either a Choleric or Sanguine personality.
Darkness as the embodiment of Darkness
then a mental ability or special gift that few to no other Witches hold. Necromancy could be that gift.

Hmm so Earth is a no go? What about Sensory Deprivation or Illusion Manipulation.

Either of the last two would be okay

Okie dokie thanks.
