---Introduction---
This is an idea that came upon me suddenly, and yes, it could do with some editing. But I decided it was ready enough to become a roleplay, and I hope you all agree as well.

This is advanced, and seeing how they have gone in the past, I hope this will at least get past the first few pages. Don't let the amount you have to type dissuade you...it's fun, I promise.

This is rated PG-13, only for some fight scenes. No language will be tolerated...none at all.

---Plot---

Two rival tribes battle each other, constantly clashing in gruesome, bloody conflict. Though it is said they were once at peace, that age has long passed, and the dark shadow of war is the only thing pressing on their minds.

A young dragon, the only spirit-walker of her time, seeks to regain peace and balance, though she knows the task won't be easy.

On the other side of the war, an old, battle-worn black dragon named Hisho seeks to drive the conflict to greater levels, hoping that out of the ashes, he would be the flame that would lead them all, Kuganati(his clan) and Kaito alike. A dark, twisted wraith called Raijo leads him, decieving him with promises of leadership. If all goes as planned, however, the wraith will possess the immense dragon, kill the spirit-walker, and rule them all.

A dark future lays ahead, and Saangi is the small island of light and hope that can save them all.

---Rules---

~No cursing. That does include crap, and all other minor words. As they are dragons, it shouldn't be too hard to make up a rondom saying, such as; "Sparks! I wish I hadn't done that!" See? Simple, no language at all.

~Complete biographies, please! I understand if you are busy, and can't finish or post, and I'm fine with you saying you'll post it later. I only ask that you follow through with that, and do it within two days.

~Let me know if you'll be away so I can pause for you...I may forget otherwise.

~Rather than use the Ooc: (out of character) dicussion; PM's will be used more often, unless more than six members join. Then I may decide it to be easier to use the Ooc://

~Please post at least two paragraphs in each post...they can even be short paragraphs, only three sentences in each. Being descriptive helps. (I will understand if you have no muse, and I will give you reprieve, but please notify me of this.)

~No god-modding, excessive dodging, etc. Follow the rules that have been layed out for you...you only have three warnings before suspended or booted out. (Post Draconic War above your post if you read the rules)

~As a note, the dragons live to be around 1,000 years old.

~You're welcome to play Hisho, just make him hungry for power and incredibly obedient to Raijo.

~No complaining, you may not be accepted. You're welcome to ask why, and edit your biography(ies) if you're set on joining.

~Have fun!

---My Characters---

Name: Saangi

Gender: Female

Age: 237 years...still quite young.

Clan: Kaito

Role: Spirit-Walker

Physical Description: Saangi is a small, lithe dragon with small silver scales that have a bronze tint to the edges. They seem to shine brightest under the moon and stars, and are surprisingly reflective, though not very stealthy. Her bronze eyes accent the tint in her scales well, and are often warm and bright, and when angry, take on a subtle scarlet hint, mainly around her thin, feline-like pupil. Her spines are smaller than normal, but just as sharp, and her wings are slightly transparent, appearing almost white when spread out underneath the sun. She stands around 10 feet tall, just below the average 12 feet. She weighs close to 200 pounds, due to the fact mentioned before, she is lithe and slim.

Personality: Saangi is a spirited, loyal dragon who is firm in her beliefs. She isn't afraid to say what is on her mind, and is often talkative, friendly, and cheery. She tries to be optimistic and see the best in others, but at times, it seems like too much effort. She can be emotional, meaning she can get angry easily, cry, etc., marking her as unpredictable. These mood-swings only happen occasionally, and when purposely provoked. She is normally loyal, motherly, caring, and leaderly at times, and is forever a curious, caring soul.

History: Saangi is a replica of her mother, though she get's the bronze tint in her scales from her father, as well as the eyes. Her mother was also a spirit-walker, and was killed by the Kuganati because of this. Saangi keeps her powers secret, and are little known even in her own clan. She was born and raised with the Kaito's, and told the same things about the Kuganati as everyone else was, but her caring nature led her to be curious towards them, rather than hateful.

Disabilities: None

Fears: Saangi would enjoy to say none, but one of her deepest fears is losing the ones she loves, as she lost her mother. Another one, though she'd never admit it, is small spaces, which accounts for why she sleeps outside often, rather than in the cave with everyone else.

Spouse: None

Children: None

Crush: Open

Extra: None

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

Name: Raijo

Gender: Male

Age: Unknown, but he is ancient, due to the fact that he's a wraith, therefore deceased.

Role: Wraith

Clan: None

Physical Description: As a wraith, he retains much of his physical appearance he had when he was alive, though he appears to be a human rather than a dragon. He weighs no more than the air, though he can appear quite substantial and real, and is unmoved when a storng wind blows through. He has slick, black hair that is smoothed down, reaching the bottom of his ears. He has a small triangular beard that is flecked with small bits of steely gray, the same shade as his eyes, which are often cold, menacing, and speak of ancient terrors. His skin is a shade darker than normal, though it doesn't show much through the eddies of shadowy, dark mist constantly swirling around him.

Personality: Raijo is a being that deserves to be feared. He may appear smooth and even generous at first, but all he shares is lies. He can be quite convincing, and paired with his cunning edge, he is a dangerous foe, one that you should fear. He always has an ulterior motive, and often the upper hand. He prefers to wipe out all oppositition, then do what he must to satisfy his ambitious needs, whether it be through murder, deciet, thievery, torture, or worse.

History: Once a formidable dragon of immense strength and power, he was feared by many, and ruled over more. After it was found that he had murdered the previous leader to gain the power himself, a small band of rebels who were rare, and not intimidated by him, attacked, and sent him into exile. Raijo died alone, still seething and hoping to regain power. Due to the evil deeds he did during life, he became a dark spirit, or, a wraith. He still seeks to regain power, and hopes he can achieve this through Hisho, the black dragon he is decieving.

Disabilities: He is unable to fight himself, due to being a wraith, but in his mind, it's not a disability, as he can possess others.

Fears: Due to the fact he is dead, Raijo doesn't have much to fear. Even though it cannot harm him, however, he does have an unexplainable aversion to fire.

Spouse: He had one during his lifte-time, named Junita, but she left him in horror soon after he was accused of murder.

Children: Junita would never agree to one.

Sounds pretty fun ^^ I like the three sentence in each paragraph thing. Very awesome RP idea here :] Although if I get overwhelmed, and don't post for a while, it's cause I'm putting it off ^^; But i will eventually read it, no worries XD It's just the way I am ;]

"Draconic War"

Name: Declan (pronounced Deh - Clawn)

Gender: Male

Age: 221 years (dragon teen age?)

Clan: Tends to roam on his own, but most of the time he hands around with Saangi (if that's alright)

Role: One who tends to follow the spirit-walker; all he wants is to help Saangi win the battle

Physical Description: Fairly large, but not the biggest around, he is pretty strong for a teenager. He is of pretty average build, but born a fighter. His scales are colored pure gold everywhere except the lining that runs from the top of his neck to the tip of his chest and his wings, which are colored electric blue.

He ways average, and isn't chubby in the least. He's able to reach pretty fast speeds with his large wingspan, and he is considered tall in the dragon universe.

His eyes are like ice and seem to be piercing through you at all times.

(here is a picture I photomaniped to look like him)

Personality: Upon first sight, he seems like nothing but a cocky, self - absorbed, joking youngster. But if you look further and give him a chance, you'll come to see that he is actually very friendly and kind. He wants nothing more than to crack a joke every now and then and to help the sides that he feels are right in the situation. He's an amazingly skilled fighter, but gets nervous before every fight, stressing that he may not do well, when in the end he always gives it his best shot.

History: Had a fairly standard childhood, but due to the fighting he was forced to battle from an incredibly young age. His parents were taken away and captured and he hasn't seen them since. For all he knows they could be dead, but he's pretty sure they are not. He was always raised to be fair and choose the side that seems right to him. Therefore, when the biggest war of all his life comes along, he must make a decision. And he chooses the spirit - walker's side.

Disabilities: None that he knows of, but one may show up later.

Fears: Boasts sometimes about how he doesn't fear anything, but when you've known him for a while it becomes clear just what he's afraif of. Although he does well during fights, he gets butterflies in his stomach right before them. He always stresses how he may not do well, but in the end he always does just fine (he does his best). He's a pretty good fighter, but this is one of his faults, and his biggest fear by far.

This is a really cool idea. I've never roleplayed as a dragon before, but this could be fun!

Draconic War

Name: Diera

Gender: female

Age: 254 years (just a bit older than Saangi)

Clan: Kaito

Role: Sanngi's pessimistic friend who doesn't think peace can be a reality

Physical Description: Diera's scales are a deep, dark purple that appear black when she is in the shadows. But in the bright light, they shine a beautiful violet. She has gray markings along her body that curve in simple designs. Her wings melt from violet to black in a flame-like pattern. Her dark brown irises cause Diera's eyes to appear to be just one large pupil. The spikes along her back and tail are thick and long, which only makes her seem more menacing combined with her tall frame. Lean muscles make her powerful yet still relatively thin. She weighs about 300 pounds mostly due to her height, which is an above average 13 feet. She has a large windspan to be able to carry her large body.

Personality: Diera views the world with the attitide of you fight, you survive or you give up, and you die. She is anything but trusting of others that she does not know, especailly dragons from the Kuganati clan. She loves her clan and would give her life to save any of the Kaito dragons. Diera can be cold and unemotional at times because she tries to make decisions logically instead of acting on how she feels. She doesn't hold much hope for Saangi's plan at peace, but she is their to bring her friend back to reality and to, of course, keep Saangi out of trouble. Or at least try to.

History: Diera was raised with the hate for the Kuganati clan present every day. Her grandfather was killed during one of the earlier battles, and her brother was murdered during one of the more recent battles. Diera has trouble dealing with the hatred she feels towards the rival clan, but is learning to keep it under control because some of them are joining Saangi's side. She is unfair to those that join their group, but Diera is working on being more peaceful.

Disabilities: Her hatred for the Kuganati blind her in battle, but she has no phyical disabilities.

Fears: Her greatest fear is losing her best friend and/or parents to the war like she lost her brother. And although she doesn't admit it, she has a fear of the Kuganati clan. She tries to mask it with anger, but fear is the reason behind her hate.

Spouse: none

Children: none

Crush: open

Extra: none




Name: Beorn

Gender: male

Age: 247 years

Clan: Kuganati

Role: the potentail betrayer

Physical Description: Beorn has light brown scales that are quite plain, but he also has green markings around his face, legs, and tail that give him quite a handsome appearence. His eyes are a bright yellow with flecks of gold and hazel that really make his eyes look like a cat's. His wings are flecked with the same green of his markings and the gold of his eyes. His spikes are short, but firm and thick. He is bulky and of averge height, maybe a few inches taller than 12 feet.

Personality: Beorn is almost always serious, and doesn't think any time during the war is an appropiate time for a joke. He seems to have a permanent scowl on his face, but is learning that happiness and optimism is a good way to get through tough times. He thinks he is firm in his loyalty to the Kuganati clan, but he is finding the idea of peace more and more appealing the longer he travels with Saangi and the others.

History: Beorn had a normal up-brining, which also means that he doesn't think much of the Kaito clan. He fought in the war, but was recently injured and abandoned in battle. He was able to crawl away from the battlefield and spent the next few nights healing in a cave. When he felt stronger, he started traveling towards the Kuganati tribe's home, but found himself closer to the Kaito home. He finds Saangi traveling towards Kuganati territory to stop Hisho, and convinced her to let him join and says he wants peace. He secretly plans to make it to Hisho before Saangi and warn him, but as the time goes on, Saangi's ideas of peace are starting to make sense to Beorn, but he still plans on betraying her.

Disabilities: His wounds are still relatively fresh, and some were very deep, so they reopen when he strains himself too much. His leg was the worst damaged and he limps because of the deep burn he recieved.

Fears: His doesn't like change, especailly in himself, and fears that his honor to Hisho and the Kunganati tribe will be lost. He also has developed a fear of fire since his experience in the war, but he tries not to show this weakness.

Spouse: none

Children: none

Crush: a little bit on Saangi

Extra: he prefers to fly than to walk because of his burnt leg

Hunter: Accepted. I really love th picture too...wonderful manipulation job.

Black Rose: Accepted, though this will start a litte before Saangi actually begins trying to stop Hisho. So you wouldn't be able to actually have Beorn interact with Saangi and the others. You can still keep his history the same, it shouldn't take to long before she leaves. I just thought you should know.

Others: I would appreciate you to help recruit. I'm itching to start, and I'm afraid it might die if no one joins quickly enough. And if no one tries as Hisho for a few days or so, I will begin to request for those who have joined to try out for him.

Windancer: I was thinking about that when I created Beorn, so thats why I made tow characters. He doesn't have to come in until later.

And I'll try to get some more people to join. I'll send out some PMs.

I was just making sure.

And thank you, Black Rose.

Thanks ^^ And I'm gonna try and recruit people too ;]

Dragonic War Cool idea!

Name: Sora

Gender: Female

Age: 962

Clan: Kaito

Role: Healer

Physical Description: Sora is a large western dragon with black scales. Her belly is yellow in color and a pair of white stripes run down her back, simular to a skunk. She has blue, friendly, soothing eyes and a generally kindhearted face. She does have spines, but they're not very big or sharp, due to her job. She's very large, around 20 feet tall and around 1000 pounds, but just because she's huge doesn't mean she's scary, in fact, she's quite inviting. She always carries a poach of herbs on her for her healing.

Personality: Sora is a sweetheart in basically every respect. She doesn't like to fight and is quite basically a gentle giant, but if she truely needs to fight, she is very able to. She's also very motherly to the other dragons in her clan, or any dragons she sees in need of help. She's particularally motherly to Saangi, having promised her mother to help care for her. She considers herself Saangi's Godmother in that respect. While she's supportive of her clan, she doesn't believe the war is worth fighting, as almost no one even seems to remember why it started and she's lost her sons and mate in the war. She refuses to fight and healing the wounded is the most support she gives, but she wouldn't turn down a Kuganati who is in need of help ether. She also likes to make jokes and fool around when people need cheering up. Also, insulting her is also not a good idea, she's not afraid to hurt you if you do.

History: The clan's chief healer, and the best at it, Sora was born into the clan but picked on most of her youth for her appearence, and her breath, resulting in her being called skunk and such. However, she ended up growing far larger than normal, but keeping her peaceful personality, now many of those who made fun of her as a hatchling are being cared for by her now. She loves the irony of this and has rubbed it in on particularally bullish dragons. She was a close friend of Saangi's mother and promised, when her mother died, to be Saangi's Godmother. Thus, she'll stay by her side through thick and thin. She lost three sons and a mate to the wars and hates them completely.

Disabilities: Not entirely a disability, but she has bad breath, due to her flames being high in sulfer as well as all the herbs she eats. She can, however, use this defensively, by breathing the normally lit gas, which smells much worse, this is foul enough to run off most dragons.

Fears: She's somewhat insecure about the insults she's recieved, but her biggest fear is losing Saangi, due to also having suffered loss. She's also got a fear of mice, suprisingly.

Spouse: Deceased

Children: Three sons, all dead, Saangi is her Goddaughter

Crush: None...yet.

Extra: She's able to use herbs to alter the make up of her flames to heal wounds instead of causing them, this is one of the traits that makes her a healer but also makes her breath smell horrid, though Saagi and others would probably have gotten used to it.

Name: Deadlock

Gender: Female

Age: 800

Clan: Kaito

Role: General

Physical Description: She's unique in that she has three heads and necks, truthfully, she's conjoined triplets in that respect. Her scales are purple, her stomach red in color. Her horns are red as well. Her eyes are a different color for each head, middle red, right blue, and left yellow. She's 13 feet tall, slightly oversized. She weighs around 700 pounds, mainly due to her having two extra heads and her wing span being larger to allow her flight.

Personality: Each head has a bit of its own personality. The middle head is agressive and tends to rush into things without much forethought, the right head is more thought driven, tending to think first, then act, tending to balence the other heads out. The left head is hyperactive and doesn't like to stay put, but listens to reason. All three, however, hate the Kuganati completely for the destruction of her eggs and want them all to pay. This has driven her somewhat insane and she tends to not care about the well being of the clan in favor of her revenge.

History: Deadlock was born to a high ranking general of the Kaito, and was one of the rare Dragons to be born with multiple heads, which causes many to call her a hydra. This also caused many to dislike her, as she was different and strange to them. She grew up learning battle tactics and became a general as well. She met a true love on the battlefield, but not of her own clan, one of the Kuganati. They had a secret love and she laid eggs with him. However, the Kuganati discovered this union and killed her mate, as well as destroyed her eggs. Driven insane with grief, she swore revenge on those who stole her true love and her unborn children, as well as one of the few to truely care about her, from her. The tradgic thing is, many of the elders of both tribes think her love could've been a chance for peace had it been allowed to grow.

Disabilities: Having three heads can sometimes mean she can't decide what to do. But being her heads are able to mentally communicate, this isn't such a disability and she's mostly gotten over it. However, being mentally unstable can effect her ability to think rationally and cost her.

Fears: Her only fear is that her love and her won't be reunited in the afterlife and that she will die with him unavenged.

Spouse: Deceased.

Children: An unborn clutch of eggs, destoryed before hatching.

Crush: None

Extra: The fire for each head is the same color as the eyes.

Deadlock would be a villain in many ways. What do you think? Tried to be unique and show the horrors the war has brought.

Really interesting idea for both Deadlock and Sora. Though I had to consider the three heads idea, I've decided to accept both, without any editing necessary.

Thank you, Godzilla.

And we need two more Kuganati member, and someone to play Hisho, which, I would count as a Kuganati member.

Those of you who have volunteered to recruit, has anyone seemed interested so far?

Well I sent out a few and GoddessoftheWolves said she might join if school didn't get in the way or something. And I could put an extra character if you want.

I would appreciate it.

As a not, I'm not accepting anymore Kaito's unless we get two more Kuganati's, or you already have a Kuganati clan member.

Name: Karma

Gender: Female

Age: 569

Clan: Kuganati

Role: A Warrior/Fighter

Physical Description: Red all over, except her horns and underbelly, which are dark blue; She is fairly large for a female, but still considered medium sized compared to all the others, her wings are almost the size of her body, and she weighs a medium amout (Picture once again photomaniped by me)

Personality: Stubborn and mean, she is unmerciful and unwilling to forgive; she never takes "No" for an answer and is purely evil. This is all due to her past. She used to be kind and nice, but everything that happened caused her to feel just pure hate for everyone around her.

History: When she was just a baby dragon, her parents were killed all in a selfish want for power. She was forced to grow up alone, and anyone who wanted to 'help' her would always turn against her in the end. She learned not to trust anyone, to trust her and only her. She grew up hating the dragons who were all for 'good and hope and peace', because she was getting more hateful by the day. She once had a best friend who grew to be her mate eventually, but before it got too serious, he began getting abusive. She left, more angry than ever. Anyone and everyone she had let in had turned against her or hurt her in some way. She wouldn't trust anyone ever again who seemed good from the start. That is why she joined her current clan: Because they seemed bad, even from the beginning.

Disabilities: Her rage can get to her sometimes, so that tends to be her downfall (if you get her angry in a situation where anger isn't the best thing to act out upon)

Fears: Letting someone else in and then they end up hurting her again

Spouse: None

Children: None

Crush: Open

Extra: None

Accepted. Thank you, Hunter.


Okay, now we only need someone to play Hisho.

No problem ^^

I hate to do this, but I would hate it more if this died before it even got off the ground.

Bump.
