For more than a century the Dragon Riders have protected the peace of the 4 middle kingdoms, but now a sinister force plots against them in secret. The safety of the Dragon Rider order and the 4 middle kingdoms rests in the hands of the young Riders and their Dragons.map-http://www.fantasymapmaker.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/epicworld.jpg


YOU are thirteen and one of 8 others your age selected as a representative from one of the four Middle kingdoms ( one boy and one girl each). You're currently on the boat Blackthorn and you've embarked to Sol, the island of Dragons, where you'll become an attendant of Rowan Academy. Learn the ways of a Rider, Discover the Runes of Brendor, and make the choice that will save the 4 kingdoms or plunge everything into darkness...

CHOOSE A KINGDOM
note: all of these country's started as small Kingdoms that built powerful armies strong enough to take over their regions. Back during the War of Roses the four great powers fought constantly for land until the first four riders (representatives of each land) merged with the powerful Sky Lord Dragons and forced the 4 Kingdoms to come to a peaceful solution. Since then in respect to the contract of peace between the four kingdoms each kingdom sends a thirteen year old male and female child every year to be trained in the ways of a Rider and protect the peace of the 4 kingdoms.

AYMIR- You come from the city of Ayimeth(the silver city). Ayimeth was once frequently attacked by raiding villages that preyed on it's many riches. That's when the Great Emperor of Ayimeth order his people to build a wall surrounding the village. Aside from it's Great wall, Ayimeth is known for being the Silver City because all of its buildings and streets are made of Silver.

MANTIUS- You come from the city of Tari. The city is named after it's people the Tari who once started off as a band of pirates. The Tari come from a long line of sea fairing warriors that migrated from the land of Aronim. They've become the super power of the sea and are the leading experts in map making and ship building. They also invented the compass. In fact, the Sky Lord Dragon rider who represents Mantius was a Tari. He built the boat Blackthorn and to this day no ship builder has ever designed a better vessel. It's said that the spirit of the ship builder's Sky Lord lives with the ship.

WOLESTLAND- You come from the kingdom of Thontinburg. This kingdom is built in the mountains where the people live. You come from a race of miners who've dug into the earth and know nearly all of it's secrets. The people of Thontinburg do not except Ayimeeth as the city of riches. In fact if they take it as a serious insult. And therefore have an uneasy alliance with the Aymeth's. What hurt's more is that Aymir's Rider Aagon was the leader of the original 4. Thontinburg is most noticeable for it's Great double doors (one side made of silver and the other side made of Gold). The Wolestland is sometimes called the land of Gold.

ARONIM- You come from the city of Hamunaptra. Hamunaptra is a kingdom of desert farmers that bounty off the Aressence river that runs through it and it's port city Mereno. This kingdom is known for being the only one of the 4 kingdoms that worships the Dragons. It's said that Mereno the original Sky Lord Rider of this country was actually the son of the Dragons born as a human. His sister Hamunaptra was the Dragon he rode. In the religion, human's are second to the Great Dragons. Therefore, Hamunaptra is their capital and Mereno is a city second to the capital. A rider must be born of Hamunaptra and must travel through Mereno to become a rider.


ROWAN ACADEMY

Spoiler! :

I think I'll join. I'll take the girl from Aronim?

Oh. Does it matter what colour your dragon is?

Edit: Profile.

Name: Jocasta Redwolf / Shiva (Bronze)

Age: 13.

Gender: Female.

Appearance: Jocasta is tall for a 13-year-old and has red hair and grey-green eyes. She is always seen limping and has a scar that runs down the back of her right thigh.
Spoiler! :
Image


Kingdom: Aronim.

Personality: Jocasta isn't shy, but she's not confident which often leads you to wonder why she's so quiet. Thoughtful, smart and quick thinking, Jocasta seems shy and people often think she's stupid, but she's just biding her time. She's stealthy and, despite her limp, moves around quietly when she wants to. Watch your back, Jocasta might just put a dagger in it. She can't be trusted at all.

Class set: Warrior.

Skills: She's not fast, but she can throw daggers and use a bow (Ranged combat). Flying; she loves to fly. Take her dragon away and she'll be practically useless.

Weaknesses: Magic; she's hopeless at it, unless it's dragon magic. Jocasta has a limp-something heavy was dropped on her right thigh when she was younger. Jocasta is hopeless in close combat; her strengths lies in ranged combat. Her dragon; kill or hurt Shiva and both would suffer. Kill Jocasta and both would die.

Up for love? Sure, why not.

Other: Jocasta's nickname is "Cat". Can only keep a secret if she benefits from it.

As promised!

Name: Kassie/Tarrion (Black)

Age:(13-19) 13
Gender: Female

Appearance:
Spoiler! :
Image


Kingdom: Aymir

Personality: She isn't shy, she's very energetic, but she doesn't talk too much. She's friendly, but smarter than she looks, so she is often taken for granted. She's not fond of those people, and she loves to prove people wrong. She's athletic, and she's usually hyper. She's also very competitive but she doesn't like to show off--not to be mistaken for proving people wrong.

Class set: Warrior

Skills: Fighting, playing the violin and piano, singing, and drawing.

Weaknesses: being mysterious, though she can keep secrets

Up for love?: Of course

Other: She always wears this around her ankle (:It's an ankle locket by the way:) :

**You said I was allowed to make a guy right, but he couldn't be freshman. I'll post his profile later**

OKay guys we have too many warrior class sets. If anybody would like to switch to Magi that'd be great. It's a really powerful class set so it just be a shame if only one person chose it.
