Welcome to Gaia! ::

Gaia name: Nephthys Assyria
Character name: Iris Messagaire
Age: 19
Race: Transcendant
Gender: Female
Height: 6'0
Weight: 148
Special abilities: Wings (medium), Fangs (short)
Equipment: Leather satchel filled to bursting with clothes, 'nutrition bars' (think granola), and the equivalent of $100 in cash. Not much, but she's a working girl who'll do anything for the cash to get her through the day.
Description: Iris Messagaire (Wings in development) is a very unusually fast sort of person. A fast talker, a fast walker, a fast worker, and, most annoyingly, a fast spender, usually on her random 'round the world trips. Which explains her lack of money and her inability to pay rent for more than a month or two. Currently Iris has taken up running errands for other people, usually actually running because she finds automobile travel to be boring and stuffy, and running has always been her strong suit. She often says that it makes her feel like she can fly, "Like the transcendants must feel, the winged ones at least..." She remains unaware of her own transcendant abilities, but lately she's had the most annoying itch on her shoulder blades, above and behind her arms.
Character Goal: To travel the world, and learn everything about every culture so she can come back home, where ever her home is that month, and spread the messages of other cultures. She especially wants to learn about transcendants, they fascinate her.
History: Born in the small city of Ruvast, Iris has always respected transcendants after her mother and father both evolved into strange new beings. However, when she showed no signs of changing, Iris was not allowed into the sanctuary with her family, and was left to be raised as a ward of the state in her home town. Iris quickly got bored living in one place and found herself travelling, generally by foot, throughout Eferaen and eventually wandering into Vislev. For the past year she's been learning the ins and outs of every part of the city, relishing in the fact that to travel into a whole new world she only has to walk a few blocks. To her, even if the city is one culture, there are so many subsects that she's never bored... Well, not always, at least. The one thing that always amazed her about the city, however, was people's attitude towards beings like her parents. Apparently it was completely taboo the think of a transcendant as 'just another person' and Iris always had a little trouble with that.

Gaia name: Illicit Romance
Character name: Shrian Kithian Belzhothai
Age: 19
Race: Trancendant
Gender: Male
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 176 lbs.
Appearance: Shrian is different in all respects. He wears seemingly heavy black cargo pants accompanied by heavy combat boots. A skin-tight black shirt, much like under-armor adorns his waist, a black coat usually covering that. His dark red eyes are complimented by similarly dark brown hair, which is cut off around his shoulders. One eye is always convered by part of his hair. He is pale, almost albino pale.
Special abilities: Clot, Wings (Medium), Cold-Blooded.
Equipment: Usually, Shrian carries a single pistol, similar to the model Desert Eagle. It has a 9 bullet clip which clips into the bottom of the gun. Apart from that, a short wakizashi is thrust into the back of his belt.
Description: He is usually quiet and withheld, tending not to talk to people. He's calm in almost any situation, though when he gets angry, people get scared. Although slow to anger, he will get vicious when mad. Without any parents in memory, he's always been somewhat of a loner. He tries to distance himself from others, fearing they or he will end up hurt. He can be an extraordinarily good fighter if he wanted to be, and though he's slow to anger, he does enjoy a good fight. Completely seperate from other emotions is his passion for love and romance, which has only grown dimmer over time of isolation.
Character Goal: He really feels as if he has no purpose. He travels on the edge of a larger group, making his way on his own. He enjoys seeing new things, experiencing things he'd never felt before.
History: He doesn't remember much at all. From what he can remember, he was born in a small town to two human parents. Upon finding out his powers, they cast him out at the age of five. He was picked up by a group of traveling Trancendants, and eventually grew up with them. One night though, there was a raid of their camp. Humans came to slaughter his comrades, and he, being too week to help, fled into the night, the screams of his friends haunting him to this day. Since then, he's been a wanderer, never staying in one place more than a week.

Gaia name: Nitebyss
Character name: Nitebyss Kalean
Age: 18
Race: Transcendant
Gender: Male
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 165
Appearance: His straight white hair falls over one eye, eyes of which he covers with small black sunglasses to hide the bright red behind them. He is seen in a long white cloak almost constantly, but when he does take it off, he is still as stark white as ever, his arms bare with the tight white tanktop. His pants are dressy, but with more pockets than needed, for who knows what. His boots go high under the pant legs, giving his ankles ample support for good agility.
Special abilities: Cold-Blooded
Equipment: His pockets hold many things, including many knives in both his jacket and pants. He keeps whatever money he has in a wallet hidden as well. He also keeps a small book and pen where he writes down any information he finds... interesting.
Description: He's somewhat antisocial, but once he's opened up to someone he's the most loyal friend you can ever hope to have. He has a complex about keeping his sunglasses over his eyes, and if they are ever removed without his concent, he goes berserk, either getting them back as quickly as possible or taking out the person who caused the glasses to be removed. He would never admit it without a lot of persuasion, but he really does want romance, he just doesn't know how to go about it.
Character Goal: To "redeem" himself for his so called shortcoming of only having cold-blood as a transcendant ability.
History: As a child, his family had high hopes that his abilities would be great when he grew up, them being higher-ups in the trancendant hierarchy themselves. But when he was a teenager and had only shown the cold-blooded ability, his parents disowned him, sending him to Yithaia and shacking him up in a modest house, leaving him to fend for himself. being forced to live on his own lent to the fact that he was now somewhat antisocial, and people's reactions to his eyes back then were the reason he wore the sunglasses now. He hopes that his turning of 18 would bring some new powers...

Equipment: Nothing, really.
Description: She is a thief, since her ability to will allow her to be forgotten by anyone. Even if they do manage to catch her. Finger prints, photos, and even eyewitnesses won't help in tracking her down. The only possible way of doing such a thing is by catching her on the spot, and even that is pretty difficult.
Character Goal: To have people accept the fact they can't bound her by chains and memory.
History: Her story is a rather sad one, seeing as she was orphaned at a young age due to a reason she has yet to know. From age 2 through 14, she pretty much lived under the care of a young woman she had come to love. At the age of thirteen, however, she found out about her ability to shape her own appearance through thought. With this apparent ability, she entertained the kids untilt he day came when funding was found to be low. Immediantley, she left before the building was bought by someone else, whom she spread lies about how cruel he was, due to the fact she had come to love the rather old woman as her own mother. Immediantley, she picked up the task of pick pocketing, and has become rather adept at the art. Although, there was one day where she had been caught, but let go upon the 'promise' that she would never steal. She had begun stealing again, and hopes such an event doesn't happen ever again.
