~Overview~
There's a small city, by the name of Taerenal. It's a rather normal town, with people going about their daily lives, work, school, and all that junk. One difference though, no one did what the really wanted to do. Everything was decided for them, their job, spouse, friends, income, job, everything. There was no freedom, as the Kaatronn decided.
The Kaatronn were a weaker species, with less military technology, less strength, and little people. They were smart though, they invented a plan to control the world, not by force, but by diplomacy. Their plan was to simply put one of each of their kind in each country, and have them work their way up to be the leader. In some countrys, they called for special cases, where the leaders weren't elected, like in dynastic countries.
The plan was named, Cicuto, and sadly, it worked. We are all under control of the Kaatronn, except some people who caught wind, and managed to hide. You may be wondering who be the wondering Kaatronn are. No one really knows, but we do know one thing, there aren't from another planet. Atleast they say, they're from a completly different dimension, almost like ours, but not unlike us.
They have almost the same exact same appearance as us, with very little differences. They have pasty white skin, and most have a silver-ish-blonde hair. Most of them dye it, so it's more discreet. They typically are short, standing from 5' to 5' 8" and a rather stubby look. They mostly wear business suits, but the occasional one can be seen in other dress.
Life hasn't really changed since they arrived, besides the entire world being under a dictatorship. They also have removed most of the technology, sending us back into a medieval age. The little technology left, is probably sheltered by the Kaatronn, or the hidden civilizations. The Kaatronn are very strict about the technology, not allowing any new kinds or anything, or anybody to ever be a researcher.
With the lack of technology, people have returned to old ways, speech, and beliefs. Including the world being flat, the belief in magic, and many others. One thing about magic though, was that it was proven to be true. It started at a young age, with strange occurances, and sometimes direct magical things. If a child was found to be housing magic. They were immediatly retrived by the Kaatronn, and never heard from again.
Many years after their first appearance, life had once again setted into a typical drone. The people who were once leaders, and the middle, were now forced into the lower role. Thus becoming farmers, handymen, and other simple-minded jobs. The people who were homeless, and poor, fast-food workers, and other lower classed jobs, become government officials, earls of towns, and sometimes even kings.
Women were given the roles they had in the earlier version of this era. With many being doctors, seamstresses, and housewives. Along with jobs being prearranged, so were marriages, so it was simply luck of the draw. Some people were lucky enough to fall in love, but many were stuck with the exact opposite.
Nobody knows why the Kaatronn came in the first place, but it's been said they came to essess the planet. To learn about the atmosphere, weather patterns, and other natural processes. They used very complex processes to do this. Often using technology beyond what our planet once had.Once they had finished with their research, they started changing it. They messed with the weather patterns, and they weather itself. Making strange things happen; like acid rain, boiling rain, and many others.
One day, maybe a week ago, something beyond simple strange weather appeared. A low floating cloud, almost like fog, but green with blue sparkles of electricity dancing in it. It had a rather cartoonish appearance, and as it got closer, the town filled with an overpowering stench. The smell was almost a mix between freshly cut planks, and the rancid odor of rotting flesh. The pure potency of the aroma, had already caused many of the townspeople to gag.
Then the real trouble came. As this 'Cloud', came closer you could hear the strangled screams from the people who worked in the outlying fields, and a dark smoke began to rise from it. That was when some people snapped, running in any direction, including towards the cloud. All of them though, just ran.

Name: Nathaniel Pendragon
A.ge: 19
Appearance: Nathaniel is a tall person, roughly six feet tall. He's in decent shape from all the manual labor but is certainly not anyone you couldn't beat in a wrestling match. He has messy black hair and dark blue eyes. His eyes are focused and calm but also seem to shine when he's happy or learns new things. He has pale skin with little signs of a tan, he has a few small cuts on his cheeks that are barely noticeable unless you for whatever reason wanted to look closely. Some might consider him handsome with his intense blue eyes but for the most part he looks like an average fellow
Personality: Very calm and collected. He enjoys being sarcastic and making small jokes if possible but always distrusts strangers. He would gladly save his friends as long as it doesn't mean he has to risk his life, his own life is his priority and second to none. He can be arrogant and cold when extremely annoyed or angry.
Items: Nathanis doesn't work much on the farm (Explained in the bio) so he doesn't carry farming tools. He always carries a small knife for multiple purposes, he has a waterskin full of water that he takes with him.
Magic request?: Air, Nathaniel loves learning about the world and was born a very curious boy, he resents the humdrum of everyday life and treasures knowledge. I think he has a good personality for magic as he has a thirst to learn and the will to drive that hunt for knowledge.
Bio: Nathan was far from an average boy. His family quickly noticed his intelligence and by the time he was 13 he would go into town to sell or buy supplies and even talk to people wanting to buy food from the family farm. But there is something his family doesn't know about, he can use magic. One day while walking around town he came across a strange book with no title, curious he naturally took it home to read. It told him how to use magic and despite not believing it at first he began to accept it as fact after performing air magic for the first time, after he read the book he burned it so he wouldn't get caught. He now notices things like the dissappearance of someone right after they were near a strange phenomena like a sudden flame bursting to life or water coming out of nowhere, these were people who learned magic but they all had been taken away and Nathan could bet what happened to them.
Nathan has never heard the phrase, curiosity killed the cat. But even if he had it wouldn't stop him from giving everything he saw a second look and examining it. Knowledge is power he always told himself and when he found the book about magic he realized just how correct his words were. |

Name: Ethan Locke
A.ge: 18
Appearance: Ethan has long-ish black hair that almost covers his eyes. His eyes are a dark brown. He stands at five feet nine. He has pale skin, even for all the time he's been standing out in the sun. You wouldn't consider Ethan very strong, but he's strong enough.
Ethan wears brown boots he found behind a home. He wears dirty jeans and an even dirtier blue t-shirt. He should really get a wardrobe change.
Personality: Ethan is overall a kind person, who is easily entertained. He hates when people continuously talk to him, however. He also hates people who complain a lot.
Items: A small backpack that holds a few seeds and a book on gardening and magic. He also has an old out-of-date dictionary that is missing a quarter of the pages.
Magic request?: Plants magic (Life). Ethan was always interested in magic as a child, but he knew he could be taken away because of it. However, that didn't stopped him. He secretly practiced magic whenever he was completely alone. He didn't understand some of the more complicated magic, but he knew a lot of plant magic, such as how to instantly grow them, how to make them live longer, etc.
Bio: As a kid, Ethan was quite normal. Other than the fact he loved magic, anyways. Whenever he could, Ethan would practice magic. The only magic he understood was magic on plants, however. He is a farmer, and spends a lot of his time farming. Ethan lives a few miles away from his parents, since he needed the space for farming. Unfortunately, Ethan never wanted to be a farmer in the first place. But he had no choice, and ever since he has hated the Taerenal for taking away technology from him. |

Name: Nelliorne (Nell) Lenn
A.ge: 18 Appearance: Nelliorn stands at 5'6, and is quite thin. She has dull, dark brown hair that hangs down to her waist, which she normally keeps in one loose braid. She has an oval shaped face with slightly pale skin. Her eyes are large and a dark grey-blue color. Nell's nose is lightly speckled with freckles.
Personality: Nell is generally impatient and stubborn with an air of rebellion. She tends to act a bit immaturely at times, but when needed she'll rise to the occasion and act more mature and serious.
Items: A worn, light brown bag containing a few books, a bit of bread and dried meat, and a few other things.
Magic request?: Fire. Nell was always a bit of a walking flame, causing disaster by setting everything around her on fire and leaving a path of ashes behind her. She was never one to be slowed down, either. It was no surprise when she developed a talent for using fire-related magic, which only further increased her antics.
Bio: Nelliorne was born in a small town not far from Taerenal, to a family of merchants that moved from city to city. As a child, Nell lived well, with her family making a decent amount of money through trade, but she often got into trouble, getting into fights with other children her age and wandering off to explore. While Nell never had much of a formal education, she did learn reading, writing, and some basic arithmetic skills. Nelliorne often read when she could, gathering up many books. When she was 15, Nelliorne met a women that looked about 30. She was a practitioner of magic, and taught Nell in secret. Nelliorne quickly picked up many things, and was soon able to use magic herself; albeit, a bit clumsily. A year later, Nell ran away from her family, and ended up in Taerenal working small jobs where she could. She does not like the Kaatronn, and often fantasizes of them falling from power and the word returning to how it used to be. She heard and read about the technology they used to have, pictures that moved and light that comes from no fire. |

(<3....this.)
Name: Cole Demcher
A.ge: 21
Appearance: Cole has an average build and fair skin, He has hazel eyes and messy brown hair that sticks up slightly in a few locations. He wears a black longsleeved shirt with black pants and brown work boots. He also wears a black coat that reaches to his ankles and it is secured by 3 belts. Out of laziness he only buckles the top one and he thinks that it looks pretty cool when a strong wind is blowing. There is a small yellow crescent moon on the collar of the coat. He also wears a amulet with an emerald in the center, when you ask him about it he simply replies "It was a friends" and leaves it at that.
Personality: Cole likes to keep the mood light and the others he is traveling with happy. He does this by cracking dumb jokes and keeping a carefree lifestyle. He seems to get irritated when the people in his group fight. He also seems to get a kick out of teasing every girl he meets.
Items: A pack that he slings across his back, the pack has a few pieces of currency along with a ham sandwich or two. He also has brass knuckles in there for protection.
Magic request?: A copy ability (With weaknesses like, he has to be hit by the spell to absorb it, he can only copy 2 spells a day, and the spells dissapear at midnight.) Otherwise, nothing. Honestly, I have no idea why I should get powers other than I think copying abilities is cool.
Bio: Cole aquired his abilities as a wish of sorts. He came across a strange lamp while investigating and found it to be a powerful magus'. After searching around for a bit he returned the lamp and recieved his reward of an element. Cole being the indesicive one he is couldn't think of one so the magus thought of the next best thing. Cole's family isn't anything special, he was born and raised in a merchant family but left considering he couldn't see himself living a life of anything other than adventure. Strangely he doesn't mind the Kaatron that much, of course he is a bit sour about the whole invading the earth thing but he doesn't hold a grudge on them and has actually helped them with a few trivial tasks in the past. Cole keeps himself busy on the road by taking odd jobs, no matter who they come from if he is up to it, he will do it. |
