Blood and Starlight OOC and Sign ups.

Two great nations lie upon the world of Arras, The Kingdom of Tarvanna, and The Agasarian Empire. These two nations are the most powerful of this world, and they have been fighting ever since they found each other. There have been four wars between these nations, and all but one has ended in a stalemate.
Agasaria has recently gone through its first civil war, nearly obliterating the country in the process, but somehow it managed to pull through. The new government is now on an uneven platform, and has just now reestablished order, and Tarvanna has taken notice. In this time of uncertainy, rumors abound that Tarvanna intends to attack Agasaria before it regains any more strength. The uncertainty hangs in the air, and no one knows what will happen.

Well I'll put up a character ;P

Name: Victor Vareen, but let's keep that between us, hmmm.

Age: Who wants to know? Oh you do well then 18, but this is out little secret, ya hear?

Gender: Male, is there much else to say?

Race: Half human, unknown other half.

Nationality: Agasaria, not flying too far from the coop.

Occupation: A pick-pocket...mostly..I could tell ya your fortune...for a price that is, oh look distraction!

Weapons: A butterfly knife, mostly, if I can lift that hefty sword of yours though then all is fair in war and war, no? Nothing but war 'round here.

Ability:
A psionic ability, passed down from parent to child. It means Victor is blind, his eyes are black as coal, there is no iris nor pupil present. It is arguable that his eyes are nothing but pupil. But he can see through a world of colour. An advanced form of mapping system that develops with Victor's age. He sees people by there emotions, dictated by the colour that mood gives off. Red means hostile, light blue means calm, primary blue means nervous and marine blue means suspicious. Orange indicates feeling threatened and black is dead/undead. Purple incantations indicate to Victor if there is magic present. Green can mean happy or envious, bringing a new meaning to 'green' with envy, or glowing with health. The ability can peer through walls and has a 360 degree feild of vision. It can also be used to focus in on a potential threat or target, making everything around him go in a form of 'slow motion' it really is just him moving faster than that which surrounds him. Having recently matured to the age of 18 Victor can now see weakness points in an enemy, say, a wound that should it be hit could weaken a foe, their vitals and major arteries depicted vividly.

Weaknesses:
Don't be fooled by his advanced ability to see, Victor may surpass many in the powers of observation but he is no fighter. His lean body and upbringing means he's designated to flight, he can climb and scale with ease, many years of his life dedicated to his vaulting over walls to escape being caught attributing to this. He is weak physically, swords prove a great difficulty to lift, he could not for the life of him string a bow and he is in no way magically inclined. His sight is all within the mind and is no spell. Though his sight can pick out weakness in an enemy, Victor is rarely ever strong enough to carry them out, should he ever be engaged in combat he is more likely to go for a swift nick of a major artery but only if the option to flee is not available and he knows his life is threatened.
Shiney objects also attract Victor like an overgrown magpie. If it's shiney then it can be sold, right? Victor also has a weakness or more so a want for company, irregardless of whether he's welcome or not, his childhood was a lonely one and he'll take any social activity he can get. Lastly Victor has an utter fear of blindness, the irony not lost on him that he is under the guise of blind man, but with his superior sight and his mind being so keenly focused on his eyes, the fear is always there of his 'luck' turning in on itself and no longer functioning, not helped by the fact that Victor has never seen the world in any other form, say as we would see it.


Personality:
Victor is a sly and devious person and a form of chaotic nuetral, due to his up bringing on the slums of Agasaria but he likes to think himself above the lower scum of the street due to his ability. His 'luck'. Though he abuses this to get money for food, or things that catch his fancy, he likes to have a sense of 'dignity'. Victor, for all his insight into a different version of the one everyone else sees is also highly subconsious, his 'luck' means that he cannot see reflections, and flat open lancapes appear as vast feilds of grey, this plays on Victor's dislike of being alone, even in a crowded square he can pretend that people do not breeze past him, a 'blind man' such as he has loads of friends....That whore from across the streets counts, right? She did give him a coin when he was five..it counts, defiantly.

Bio:
Victor has known nothing but the streets, though he can see the world in this fantastic array of colours and shapes and emotion, he knows little of what it means. Victor does remember warmth, the soft comfort of sikly words lulling him to sleep, but he was blind until the age of three his sight only unlocking at the age of four. Victor spent a year of blindness on the streets, the most terrifying one of his life to date as he was suddenly no longer in that conforting presence of who he believed to be his mother. He always presumed that his mother would come back for him, on the pretense that he has one, that the comfort was her, that she still draws breath if she ever did in the first place. But his 'luck' had to come from somewhere, right? Children do not just wind up in the slums on a whim. Victor indulges in the thought that it is all leading up to something of import. And war can raise any man high, can it not? The war that Agasaria experienced did little to affect him in the long run, he's still on the streets only now there is less coin to pilfer. But of course the monotone life he led was bound to change, with gifts like these, Victor was always meant for more, if only he'd forseen his diving headlong into the war of Agasaria, then maybe he'd have been more prepared for the rough landing.


Appearance:
Victor is lean and lithe, his 'luck' good enough that life on the street was not as hard as it could have been. His hair is as black as pitch, with eyes to match, offset only by pale skin so pale that it is near pallid grey from lack of proper nutrition. His features are strong, indicating a higer aristrocacy decent, though it is hard to say. His supposed 'blindness' creates an unnerving air around him as even though he is 'blind' there is always the sense that he can still see. He wears a black blindfold over his eyes, black leather armour and a black cloak. But his garb could be neon pink for all he knows, he had to ask people as to what colour they were, even, it was actual luck that lead himto wear the dark clothes, so that he may blend in better...well that was his aim, anyway.

Goals:
Victor's ultimate goal in life is to seek out his mother, and ask the most basic questions of how and why. How did he end up in the slums of all places, when so much indicates elsewhere, why was he left alone, for so long? It does not occur to Victor that his mother could be dead, of may have never been, he has convinced himself to being near delusional about the fact that she exsisted, when he was younger his mantra and prayer was that she would return to him, look for him, becuase that meant that somebody cared. Though Victor has barely set foot outside Agaria until the war struck he can see it as an opportunity to locate her, if he travels with the right kind of people, the ones that can actually see the roads would be useful indeed.

Actually, the rp is under way, and we're looking for people who want to join it. We have already had a quick raid on Agasaria's capital, with Tarvanna just barely coming out victorious. They managed to steal the SkyAdmiral's flagship, kidnapping him in the process, along with several Imperial Mages.

Tarvanna controls much of Southern Agasaria, though Agasaria is far larger than Tarvanna, and the South is a wooded wilderness with only sparse villages.

That's the basic synopsis of what's Happened. My character, Rokku, has gone to Agasaria's ally, Turobian, to ask for help. This is on the Western border of Agasaria, and your character could be heading there as a refugee. Here is the rp:
