Well, this is an RP I have posted in a few places. So I might as well post it here.

For the map, I will use an edited version of the OOT map, yes, lame, I know. Oh well. It's a good example of a hmm...I guess you could say....multi-elemental and multi-cultural RP.

Map

Don't hate on my epic MS Paint Skillz.

Quick descriptions.
Pristine Castle- A shining castle, towering over the area. Those born here are noble, and are of the light element.

Eaderheath- The Town under the great castle, a bustling community of happy folk and prospering business.

Frikan Ranch- A small horse and cow ranch that produces the milk for the area. Sells horses sometimes, and holds races and events.

Ardent Village- The village at the bottom of the volcano, known for it's great archery tournaments. Behind the village is a graveyard, where many dark monsters have been invading as of late due to the dark temple behind the graveyard and the rift to the realm of shadows that lies near the temple. Those born in this village command the element of fire.

Inferno Eminence- The great Volcano, while it is active, it has never erupted, though it is still dangerous. There is a small village of sentient beings within the mountain. Those born within this village have a greater command of the element of fire, but are unable to swim.

Mist-covered River- a river covered in mist and very hard to traverse. Leads from the field to the cavern of mist.

Cavern of Mist- A mist covered cavern wherein sentient beings lie, they command the element of water, but are susceptible to earth.

Forest of Illusions- A forest named for it's difficulty to traverse. Those who have made it through, report that many illusions are seen along the way. Some have even been driven mad from the illusions, and still reside in the forest, attacking those who invade. A temple is hidden deep within the forest. There is also rumored to be a village within it.

Copse Village- The village deep within the forest. Does not get many villagers. It is full of Sentient Beings, who command the element of wind. But they cannot handle high temperatures.

Tree of Beginnings- A tree that is said to have existed since the beginning of time.

Lake Priste- The source of water for the area, provides fresh water and a prime spot for fishing. Rumors have it that there is a door at the bottom of the lake, yet no one has been able to check.

Angel's Fear valley- The valley leading to the Sanctuary in the sands, a gorge separates it. It was named because it was said that was so deep, even angels feared it.

Sanctuary in the Sands- A sanctuary hidden within the sands, full of sentient beings which control the element of earth, yet do not like strong winds. Deep within the desert lies a temple. Yet none have been able to traverse the shifting and winding sands.

Realm of Shadows- A dark realm which can only be accessed from rifts. Full of many species and races, all of whom are in control of the dark element.

Little note:
For the places where I put sentient beings, you are allowed to create a race/species that resides there. Many races and species can be made in the realm of shadows. First come first serve. I will update this as required.

Elements chain:

Fire->Wind->Earth->Water->Fire

Aka, Fire beats wind, which beats Earth, which beats water, which beats fire.
Fire- Can create fire in relatively dry environments. But not in excessively humid environments like the mist covered river and cavern of mist.
Water- Can control and even pull water from the air if it is humid enough. But cannot do anything in environments such as the Inferno Eminence, or Ardent Village
Wind- Controls the winds. Cannot do much in area's with no wind such as the Cavern of Mist.
Earth- Controls the earth, can form and shape it. Cannot function in areas with no earth(Which is like....where? XD).

Dark and Light are a little different.

Light has great defense when confronted with the darkness. And Darkness has the ability to stop many of the light attacks.

Light- The abilities to
*Create light
*Control Light
-Illuminating an area
*In some cases the ability to move as fast as light
*Some cases the ability to create laser-like beams.
*The ability of healing
*Purification of those who are dark.
Dark- The abilities to
*Create shadows.
*Controlling shadows.
- Cloaking an area in darkness.
*Using shadows to transport oneself.
*Corrupt the weak-minded
*Cause great pain

Story
A long time ago in a galaxy far fa-....
Oh wait, not star wars. Duh. XD

The setting is a distant land, far from those of the current day. The technology is primitive, yet also, advanced. The development of such things such as lights, or electronics has not even been dreamed of. Yet still things like simple and complex pulleys, levers, crossbows, and other things exist. The beings from the cavern of mist are not as friendly as they once were, they do not accept outsiders, and most of them will kill intruders. Most of the other communities are friendly though....all except one. The realm of shadows is gaining greater access to the land as days pass. They gain access through the temples that are spread through the land. The temples reside: In the volcano, under the lake, far in the desert, behind the graveyard, and far in the forest. The temple behind the graveyard has been most active lately, in fact, they have had to close the gates to keep the village safe. Those from the desert are mostly safe, for their sanctuary is closed off from the part of the desert where the temple resides. The temple in the forest is too deep and they usually escape to the plains, and never make it to the village within the forest. The creatures in the lake temple cannot escape, yet they are finding ways as days pass. The creatures in the Volcano temple are able to escape and the attack the village in the volcano quite frequently, though this is no problem for the villagers.

KEEP IN MIND, THIS ONLY HAS SMALL RESEMBLANCES TO LOZ!

RP Start:

Harukastu made his way through the town, greeting the people as they walked by him. His sword hung upon his back. He headed towards the gate of the town. The guards had to be careful, so they let him out, and immediately closed the drawbridge. As he stepped out onto the plains, he looked around.

"Something must be done...Yet, I can't do it alone. Perhaps there will be others like me."

His walked through the plains, heading towards the valley. Pulling his sword from his back and spinning it as he walks. His hair was taken up by the wind as he walked.

OOC:Yeah, I know, Short post. Oh well. It will be longer when I have something to do besides walk. =D
OOC:When I did the text that my char spoke, I suddently thought of: "We need five power rangers with attitude!" XD

Name: Siegfried though commonly just called Sieg
Origin: Realm of Darkness though curently living in Frikan Ranch
Race: Gothic Angel
Element: Darkness
Description: Previously a Reaper in training, Sieg now works in Frikan Ranch and in exchange, is given a room located in the owners house. He occasionally takes on monster hunting contracts for extra money.
Weapon: Scythe
Alignment: Neutral
Personality: Quiet, independent, and cautious
Fighting Style: Normally very calm in combat and assesses his enemy before any major assault. Though when in serious danger he is known to unconsciously turn into a Dark Angel.
Other important things: Because he has had received some Reaper training he can utilized a few dark magic spells including creation of a dark portal to take him to known areas and the ability to conjure his scythe at will.
History: Originally born in the Realm of Darkness, Sieg was forced to follow his bloodlines profession, becoming a Reaper. Sieg often disagreed with all of the other residents of darkness. He thought that stealing innocents life was wrong and at in his early teens escaped the Realm of Darkness.

One day as an old man was coming by Frikan Ranch for some milk, he starts to talk to the ranch owner about the 5 fabled temples that dark minions are appearing out off. Sieg continues to eavesdrop on their conversation and hears of one such temple in the far east desert. Since Sieg has traveled from the Realm of Darkness into the Realm of Light, he knows how difficult it is to do so and that this many minions traveling at the same time is no mere coincidence and decides to investigate.

That night he tells the Ranch owner that he is going to start traveling around the lands for various reasons. In the morning, Siegfried is about to leave when he is stopped by the ranch owner who hands him a sack filled with milk and apples. Sieg accepts the bag and walks out of the ranch and enters the large field surrounding it. he then begins to follow his only lead he has and heads west towards Angel's Fear Valley.


COMON MORE PEOPLE JOIN!

Name: Asakura Izumi
Origin: Copse Village, though currently lives at Lake Priste
Race: Human
Element: Wind
Description:
Weapon: Magic and two elbow blades (these weapons are summoned)
Alignment: Good
Personality: Happy and Playful.
Fighting Style: Moves very fast due to wind powers and uses spells and the like to cut or bind her enemies. She can (instantaniously) summons her weapons and usually finishes the fight instantly with a one hit k-o move, when she does this her eyes go blank (no pupils) and then she instantly kills her prey. She is still conscious while she is like this and the only thing that changes is her speed and power. This mysterious power is due to her past.
Other important things: She bears strange markings on her that enable her powers to grow and allows her to do some things that other wind users can't.
History: She spent her past training at the copse village and one day went into the forest of illusions, little is known of what happened in there, but she came back she had some strange marks on her shoulders. Soon after she was accused of being "cursed" and was bannished from the village, she now spends her days at Lake Priste, where she sings and fishes for food and lies in the sun.

It's a good day today Asakura thought to herself as the watched the clouds roll by. She realised she was hungry and so goes out to fish as she sings a lulaby. She was half way though her meal when there is an sound of a explosion coming from the house of Mr.Wilson the old man who spends his days researching on how "infuse" magic into weapons to make them better. Asakura being the caring and curious person that she is goes to see if he is allright. As she sneaks in she hears him yell "Darn it! i really thought i would get it right this time!" she taps him on the shoulder "AHH! Oh. Hello Asakura, i was just on the final stage of infusing this fire magic into the blade when the magic suddenly activated and blew a hole in my roof. oh dear, i've seem to have lost my glasses as well" Asakura giggles as she helps him back up to his feet and puts his glasses back on him. "Ah thank you" he said "It's no problem, James" said asakura "I'm just glad to see your okay" she says as she smiles kindly "Would you like some help cleaning up?" she asks "Ah thank you very much, your so kind to me. You do realise that you don't have to sleep outside? Your allways welcome here, you help this old man out so much that i would feel bad if i didn't help you in return" he said "No, thats allright, i love to sleep outside while under the stars" said asakura"well at least let me give you somthing in return, here take this milk that was delivered here earlier" he said "Thank you" she said as the walked out the house and headed back to her little spot near the lake. She tucked her milk away in her pocket and fell to sleep under the starry sky.

Harukastu stops in his tracks halfway through the plains, and stabs his sword into the ground. "Wait a minute...." He then looks around some. "Where was I going again...." He looks towards the south, the direction of the lake. "Perhaps I should start with the hardest first...Doubt there's any harder then one in a lake...First problem...getting down there." He pulls his sword from the ground and sheathes it. He then begins his walk towards the lake. 

Upon arriving a while later, Harukastu looked around the lake, seeing not but lots of water, a few patches of land, and a fairly large house. "Wonder if there are any people around here..." His gaze turns towards the house, inspecting for any inhabitants. He then turned his gaze towards the lake, he stared out over it.

Asakura wakes up with a jolt as she senses the presence of someone she climbs onto the roof of Mr.wilsons house to get a better look at her surroundings, she sees the stranger, she notices the weapon at his side and realises he is an enemy,her eyes go blank and her more markings appear on her body, then she summons her blades and pounces on the foe!

(short post but there wasn't much else i could do :-X)

Hearing the sounds nearby, he quickly turns in time to see someone lunging at him. He rolls to the side, out of the way and keeps one hand on the hilt of his blade. "Who are you, and why are you attacking me for no reason. I have no intention to harm you but I will if I must..." His hand kept a firm grip on his blade; while his other was readied for a defense in case he was unable to draw his blade fast enough.

Name:Brikalan (Brikal)
Origin:Inferno Eminence
Race:Wolf
Element:Ranged Fire
Description:Huge mouth to bit victims, muscley mostly in the legs and jaw, long white bushy tail and orange mixed with streaks of white fur
Weapon:Flaming jaws, Fire Aura(body bursts into flames), claws.
Alignment:Neutral
Personality:Aggressive, doesn't think
Fighting Style:Offensive
Other important things:There is many of his type and as one is slain another is to be approached.
History:This particular wolf has lost his way when the groups were patrolling the edges of Ardent Village for food, arrows were fired at them and he went the wrong way in terror near to the Eaderheath gates.

Another day comes upon Brikal as he stretches his massive paws along the plains of Distand Land,  he opens his wide jaws and lets out a loud yawn. He picks up last nights dinner and attempts to find a source of water. He sees the streams of vile water being produced by Eaderheath and decides not to drink that. He sniffs the air and floor for signs or nearby travellers, he finds a trail of footprints leading towards a glistening water paradise. He's been sitting here wondering what to do for a while now and set so of that way. It's night time when Brikal arrives at, Lake Priste. He takes 6 big gulps of water put his food beside him and takes another sleep and decides to stay at this lake for a while.

Asakura stares at Harukatsu with her blank and so very unforgiving eyes when she notices somthing that sparks her interest on his head, instantly she is on his shoulders and inspecting those lovely little ears of his. "Sooooo cute!" she squeals as she inspects ears upon is head "Surely someone with ears as cute as these couldn't possibly be evil". Soon though she realises that she is still on his shoulders and is wearing a skirt so she flips off him and apologises for being so rude and invading his personal space like that. She makes herself look a bit more presentable "I can now see that you are not an enemy, but what are you doing out here at this time of day? Please tell me of what your purpose of being here is" she asked the stranger.....

Harukastu is taken aback by the sudden jump onto his shoulders, yet maintains his balance. He immediately drops his guard and sighs. "Well, while that is a relief, I'm still a bit puzzled as to why you attacked me. But I'm sure you have your reasons, so all is forgiven." As she lands he begins to fix up his armor and looks around, then extends a hand and points directly at the entrance to the temple under the lake. "As for your question, my reason for being here lies in that very temple." His ears perk up. "But, these are matters to be discussed at another time...."

His hand drops back to his side and he gazes back towards the entrance to the lake, seeing a beast entering into it. He grabs on to the hilt of his sword, and he takes a position in in front of the girl, in preparation in case the beast were to attack. He speaks in a hushed tone, hoping the beast does not hear. "My name is Harukastu Akaruineko by the way. If we are silent enough, it may not notice us and just go on it's own way. Were it to be hostile, it most likely would have attacked already."

Dusk later that day, Sieg reaches Angel's Fear Valley. He examines the area, ready for any surprise attack from the high cliffs surrounding him. As he walks deeper into the valley, he notices several humanoid skeletons with arrows lodged in between their ribcage. Sieg remembers stories of how the locals of this area only consist of a large band of bandits and thieves. Still being cautious, Sieg starts to walk across the old rickety bridge that connects the Distant Land fields and the desert to the far west. While he is half way across the gorge, he notices a slight movement towards his left. He glances over to see a bandit fire a bright flaming arrow into the knight sky. Sieg instinctively summons his Scythe and enters a defensive stance. The cliffs around him quickly crowd with bows aimed at him. The arrows start to fly and Sieg does his best to concentrate on blocking them. Eventually, he is hit in the thigh and knells down in great pain. A puff of smoke clouds his vision and a bandit captain appears across the bridge in front of him. The archers hold their fire. The captain walks up to the bridge and slashes the 2 ropes holding it up. The bridge collapses and Sieg plunges into the river below. The impact of the water, pain, and the bleeding, cause Sieg to pass out. He continues to flow down the the rapid river that exits into Lake Priste.
