PLOT

Two tribes that completely seclude themselves from the rest of society are nesteled in the Rocky Mountains, Alberta. They are small, only a few dozen people in each; and they are at war. That is the least of their problems, new rumours have sprouted in the modern world. There is a small group of myth-hunters in the area, seeking out the new tribes.
What will happen if the tribes are discovered is horrible. The whole villages will be ripped apart, the inhabinants captured and studied. Nobody, not even the tribe members themselves, know how they were started. They are mixed races, so that wasn't the reason.
Of course, there will be mischeif. Lines will be broken and betrayals will be made.
What happens is completely up to you.

CHARACTER TEMPLATE (TRIBAL MEMBER)

Name: Aliricia (Aliri for short)

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Tribe (a or b): a

Personality: She is a very quiet person who enjoys confusing others. Her life revolves around music and literature, as well as nature. She is a hopeless romantic, but it'll be hard to get her to open up to you. She likes to be alone and isn't afraid to put up a good fight. She often thinks rather deep thoughts and is very opinionated.

Likes: Nature, snakes, birds, wolves, the night, thunder storms, the sound of running water, music, her black cloak, dancing, music, literature, her sword and her horse.

Dislikes: Spiders, scorching hot weather, over-sleeping, people who are disturned by snakes.

Weaknesses: She is horrible at long-range fighting. She also isn't a very good swimmer and hot weather brings out the worst in her.

Gift: She can transfer her thoughts to others and read thoughts directed at her. (She cannot read thoughts unless they are unguarded or directed at her)

Appearance: Her, but slightly less...pefect...with a scar under her left eye
Image

Up for Love: You know it

Other: Her scar was a prize of a battle with the other tribe. She has three pets; one female wolf named Mist, a red male snake named Gash and a white female horse named Blazer. She is rarely in the village and spends most of her time in the forest or by the stream. Her pets are the most loyal things you'll ever find. She is never seen without her cloak.

Name: Cheveyo White Hawk

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Tribe: B

Personality: Cheveyo is the chief's son, however he doesn't act like it at times. He claims he's a runaway when he messes with the women of the other tribe, just because he finds joy and laughter in that. He also loves to laugh. He loves to train other kids, and especially teach them to hunt.

Appearance: (at the bottom) He's pretty muscular, with long, black hair, a wide, dimple grin, and dark chocolate brown eyes.

Strengths: Amazing archer, and also great at close combat. He can sweet talk his way into anything, and usually out of it as well. He's the 'ladie's man' in his villiage, and everyone knows it. He

Weaknesses: He sometimes does things with his heart rather than his head, which has earned him a blind eye. Yes, Cheveyo is blind in his right eye, but you can tell unless you look closely. He is also keen to talk his way into fights, in and out of the tribe.

Gift: He's got the ability to control Earth-bound elements, like wind, earth, and water

Likes: Hunting, women, fights, family, friends, and y'know, night things ;) like hunting mountain lions;)

Dislikes: His father's scoldings, boring lectures, being told he can't do something, and mopey people

Up for Love: Yess

Other: A pet mountain lion, names Sabe, and a pet wolf named Tyr

Character Template (Tribal Member)

Name:Fallon

Age: 19
Gender: Female
Tribe: B

Personality: She is very empathetic, which ties into one of her gifts. She was raised to think that public displays of strong emotion are signs of weakness, so to people who don't know her, she seems cold. very passionate about what she believes in, and stubborn about it too. She is very protective of her family, and has a temper that on the rare occasion she lets it out, is violent.

Likes: Reading, playing her lyre (small harp), her horse and family, swimming, casting spells, the full moon in fall, lily of the valley, lilacs and other wild flowers.

Dislikes: Snakes (bad experience as a child), heights, falling, stupid people who waste her time

Weaknesses: She is so stubborn that she will stand by her views even if proven wrong. Her empathy gift can leave her physically weakened.

Gifts: She is a superb archer, prefers longbow. She is her tribe's healer in training, so she heals people magically, granted they get to her soon enough. She is an Empath, which means that she can feel the physical and emotional pain/feelings of others

Other: She has a pet red tail hawk named Rowan, and a sorrel mare named Trisani (Tris)

Appearance:
see picture, red hair, her eyes go from gray at the center, to jade green.


Up for love: Sure. She loves boys! ; P

I'll make a profile for a guy to even it out a bit.

Name: Chahta (Charlie)

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Tribe (a or b): B

Personality: Charlie hates living in a tribe. He's always wondered about life outside the tribe and how different it is. The only reason he's living in the tribe is because he was born there and was brought up there. He has never been out of the Rocky Mountains but has always thought about it. Even though Charlie hates where he lives, he loves the people. His tribe are very important to him and he is extremely protective over them. He doesn't take life too seriously at all and laughs about everything.

Likes: Music, girls, boys, having a laugh, his tribe, playing a guitar that he made

Dislikes: Living in the mountains, arrogant people, nature, selfish people

Weaknesses: Charlie doesn't like being away from society. Therefore, he isn't always so eager to do tribal things like hunting. He doesn't take life seriously which can lead to some problems when he is in a serious situation.

Gift: Charlie can see earthbound spirits and has done since he was born. The problem with this gift occurs when he ignores a an angry spirit. It can wear him out because the spirits use their energy to do so, it sometimes even makes him pass out.

Appearance: Charlie cuts his hair short because he doesn't like looking tribal and long hair would annoy him. He has messy brown hair and vividly blue eyes. He is rather muscular and an average height.

Spoiler
Image


Up for Love: Yeah (Guys and girls) He also loves the thought of being with someone from an enemy tribe, he likes the danger factor of it.

Other: Cahata calls himself Charlie because Charlie sounds more normal than his real name. He hates how is name is a tribal name. Charlie's father hates him because of his hatred of living away from society. He also hates his son because he is a bisexual.
I didn't know what to put here so I put this.

Yay! The girl:guy ratio is 4:3 now, just saying in case anyone's too lazy to count it all up. :D That makes me happy, oddly enough.

Oh, and Isha, if nobody wants to be a scientist, you could always just make the scientists evil little NPCs.(: Just an idea for you, but if that isn't okay, I'll gladly make one if you need me to.

Hey!! So...I'm in.

Name: Taylor Blackwood.

Age:18

Gender:Male

Tribe (a or b):b

Personality:He's really fun to be around and the kind of guy who always brings fun to the party. He's really charming with girls and really respectful towards other people. As he can be really fun and calm, he can also enforce law. He's leader material and he knows it and sometimes even takes advantage of that.

Likes:running, exercising, reading, photography, and of course making people do what he wants.

Dislikes: unloyal people, liers, people who breaks the law, being alone and silent.

Weaknesses: he trusts people too mucha and his inability to be alone and silent just makes it worse because it becomes a necessity to be accompanied all the time.

Gift: mind control, he can control people and people wouldn't even notice it, but he never uses it against people in his own tribe.

Appearance: He's good looking, very tall with a lean but muscular body. His eyes are kind of an indigo color, and his hair is brown, always tousled for he likes using it like that. His skin color is tan.
Spoiler

Up for Love:yup, totally

Other: he has a tribal tattoo in his right arm and two pets, both of them dogs. The male one called Judas and the female one called Aki

Name: Koda

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Tribe (a or b): A

Personality: He's quite gentle-hearted; he strongly dislikes the rivalry between the two tribes and thinks things would be better resolved if they just sat down and talked things out. He's quite curious about the other tribe, however the disapproval of the Elders means he has never encountered someone from tribe B face to face. His opinions are often the focus of ridicule from the rest of the tribe. Is generally quite slow to act; he cannot think on his feet well; therefore is not a particularly valued member of the hunting team.

Likes: Campfires, hearing the Elders' stories, general tribey-ness and the sense of community.

Dislikes: Fighting other people, things happening too fast. People who are too hyper.

Weaknesses: As with personality - not a quick thinker or a great hunter. Prefers to contemplate things over a period of time.

Gift: Oooooooh. I'll come back to this...

Appearance:

Up for Love: Sure. I'll go for either boy or girl, cause it could be interesting with Skins' character :D

Other: He's an awesome cook.

Will this start soon?
