It is a time of great despute for the United Nations of Igros. Galatians the Wise is returning to Mayton, Gravince to see his old friend Elisha Diadem who now needs his help once again. The days are growing shorter and the nights are growing longer. Mayton, Gravince is a small farming village with vast hills spreading for miles. Even the terrible dai-orks do not attack Mayton saying it would be a waste of time.
----Marton, Gravince----
In the land of Igros, just east of the great kingdom of Hyland, south from Irony, and west from Uplia lies the peaceful nation of Gravince. Gravince sits in peace with its many hills that goes on for miles. At the northern border of Gravince is the mighty Silence Woods. Three villages are in Gravince and all are peaceful and careful with no wars or troubles.
Mayton being the furthest village south. Is home to Elisha Diadem who traveled east in Uplia with Galatians the Wise and Marth Moore. Their adventures took them to a mighty mountain. Elisha is now an old man in his late fifties and his son is but twelve who is named Elijah. Marth has a daughter named Brittany and she is twenty but her father died when she was eight and Elisha took her in. They live on the biggest hill with a stream running on the western side of it. Brittany watches Elijah all the time while Elisha is at work and looking over his books.
Marton being the furthest village east. Here is the home of Bradon and the mayor of Gravince. The mayor is named William Kerry and is an honest man. Marton has the biggest militia with around thirty men. Bradon is part of the militia and is owner of a large piece of land in Marton. Marton also holds the Festival of the Moon every year to celebrate the birth of Gravince.
Merrierton being the furthest village north. Here is the home of Alextor. Unlike the other two villages, this one is part of Gravince but is not owned by Gravince. The King of Gandrian gave his younger son that village. Jaromor was his name and he became Count of Merrierton. Jaromor has an elder brother named Joran that is heir to the throne of Gandrian. Jaromor is a brave soldier, captain of the guard, and ranger of the south.
It is a time of great merriment and cheer for the time has come of the Festival of the Moon being held at Marton. Mayor William Kerry has overlooked this year’s festival for the people can really enjoy themselves with the food, music, dancing, and fireworks. All is well in Gravince for no one has a care in the world. Finally the sun sets and the moon rises and out comes the explosions of fireworks erupting in the sky. The crowd goes silent as Mayor Kerry takes the stage.
‘People of Marton…of Mayton…of Merrierton…and of Gravince!’ the mayor shouted, ‘today is the two hundred and fifteenth birthday of are beloved land of Gravince. Two hundred and fifteen years ago we broke free from the cruel grip of Uplia and became a free nation of Gravince! And over the next week we shall enjoy the Festival of the Moon to remember those brave soldiers that made it possible for us to live in peace!’
The crowd cheers and claps as the full moon takes the sky. Galatians has arrived at Marton on the white horse he named Thunder. The sage dismounts Thunder and looks around in both joy and with worries in his face for fear of the knowledge he has just recieved.
A boy sneaks into a tent. The boy had a burnt mark on his left eye in the shape of a cross and long hair that passed his eyes but it curled a little to stay above his brows. His eyes were blue and we like gazing into the ocean at sunset. He was Elisha's son Elijah Diadem.
Elijah smiled and grabbed a strange looking rocket for the fireworks display and ran out of the tent planning to ignite it himself.

Dark age technology? Are we talking about the dark ages of Earth? If so; no. There are machine guns, rocket launchers, and a cannon that can level an entire nation with but a single attack found at Gandra. It's more high-tech than Earth is right now but not that high-tech.
Bio: Sebastian spent his entire life alone in Terbrium from the day he was born. He was raised in a foster home until he escaped at 5 years old, with such urge to be free and follow his dreams to becoming what he wanted. He wandered through town and the woods, with nothing. He usually spent time going through alleys, looking through garbage cans, in search of food and slept in a box around his size.
One day, Sebastian walked through the woods finding the land of Igros in war with his own nation. He was hidden behind a rock, in fear but later would turn into rage. He saw how his people were being man handled and killed. He could no longer stand the image and then ran down the mountain in full speed, stole a sword form one of his dead people and went out killing. In that war, they have lost but sebastian was one of the only survivors to have lived through the war. Ever since that day, he wasn ever the same again. He was encouraged to be the best in swordsmanship and war. He trains everyday and works as a swords maker for the Nation of Maldarian.
Sebastian is now going to start his journey.

Name: Dimitri Riedel
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 174
Weapon of Choice: Pistol-sword, 9mm pinfire revolver model. Below is a close-up of the hilt.
(please log in to view the image)
Home: He's a bit of a drifter, but originally from Gandra
Class: Physical Prowess
Likes: Technology, anything mechanical, metalwork
Dislikes: Loud gatherings, any large social get-together
Bio: Born into the merchant class, Dimitri's childhood served as an early introduction into the world of business. His father was a textile merchant by trade, and as Dimitri grew older it was clear that such a field of work was of very little interest to him. Instead, he was fascinated by the blacksmiths and the weapons they helped create. As a result, Dimitri's father reluctantly acquired the boy an apprenticeship for one of the local blacksmiths; though was still somewhat sour that Dimitri had chosen a trade outside the family business.
As the years passed, Dimitri completed his apprenticeship to become a journeyman at 16, and after two failures to enter a guild and obtain the status of a master rather than a mere journeyman; he finally succeeded at 17 by crafting a pistol-sword he carries with him to this day. However, simply working as a blacksmith began to grow somewhat dull...he loved working with metal, but he hated having to do it fourteen hours a day; and that was the shorter hours. So it's no surprise that, now 18, Dimitri has set his sights elsewhere... namely, on the path of the warrior.

Name: Bradley Nathans
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 162 lbs. 7 oz.
Weapon of Choice: Bow and Arrows
Home: Marton, Gravince
Class: Light Aura
Likes: All of nature, most foods and medicine
Dislikes: Illness and disease, messy looking places and slobbish people
Bio: Bradley, or Brad as he prefers, is a completely outspoken young man. Some would say that he should watch what he says because that is what gets him into many unique and troublesome situations. It helps that he is a healer, however, because this fact has allowed him to gain many friends.
He was raised by both parents up until the age of 12 when his mother died of cancer. His healing abilities came literally days after that and he started to berate himself for not being able to help her. His father, Simon Nathans, reassured him that there was absolutely nothing that could have been done to prevent his mother's death considering the fact that at the time he had no powers.
Being the first person in his entire family to have a Light Aura, it was very difficult for him to learn how to use his powers. Having just 4 years of practice hasn't allowed Brad to be able to heal completely and that is where a he has been awarded a few extra abilities. He can sense, know and feel exactly what the problem is with any person's immune system but only after he is told about the sickness and he has the ability to transfer the sickness to himself if he isn't able to heal it.
Some would say that the extra abilities are a curse but Bradley feels as if they are to keep him from getting a to big a ego. He often says, "Every person comes with at least one flaw. Why not learn from it."

It is approaching the time of the Field Exams. The Field Exams are when the students are broken up into groups of three and sent out from the Bulma Academy across Bulma Island to perform many different missions. Missions are classified into different rankings; E, D, C, B, A, and S. E being the easiest and S being so difficult that Cielo Masters themselves cannot always complete them.
The Field Exams are a time the teams use to build points depending on the completion of the number of missions. Each ranking offers different points. When the month ends the points are tallied and the teams who score 40 or more all allowed to take the Final Exams to determine who will become a Cielo Warrior and who will remain for another year.
More information on the Field Exams will be given as time passes. Until than pay attention to the information handed for a test will be given before the Field Exams to determine the teams. The teams will try balance out the members. For the highest test score will be paired with the lowest test score and the one who scored around the middle.
Bulma Academy has many different areas; the Dormitory, the Classrooms, the Library, Headmaster's Office (you need permission to go here), the Garden, the Cafeteria, and the Infirmary.
Students are enrolled at the age of 10 to the Bulma Academy so each of you has a few years experience here but not enough to expect to be these all powerful grand masters.
Name: Evelyn Mitsyuna
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Height: 5’4”
Weight: 118lb
Weapon of Choice: Her blade bladed Katana
Home: Fongon nation in the outskirts of the village Myst
Class: Dark Aura
Likes: Animals, Nature, Drawing, Fire, practice in mixing magic and her martial arts together, and peace and quiet
Dislikes: loud noises, womanizers and drunks, showing people her artwork,
Bio: Evelyn, or Eve to some, she grew up as a blacksmiths daughter, she gained her powers at a very young age, 6, and was skilled when it came to learning new things. She found a strange metal when she was traveling through the forest and brought it back to her father to make a sword, it came out to be her black bladed katana she likes to call moonstone, it is lighter then any metal then any metal her father has seen and Eve also realized it helped her channel her magic better, so now she is able to put some magic in her sword to give it extra effects.
Eve has a habit of randomly disappearing to go draw in the forest further. She is very shy when it comes to people seeing her artwork so she has only shown her father who constantly tells her to sell them so the money can help them. Eve has been attacked more times she can remember each time she has traveled to town so she doesn’t listen to her father.
At the age of 9 her father was brutally murdered by a random customer, unlucky for him, Eve was home to witness it and had sliced him down the middle with her katana in vengeance. Later she found out it was one of the leaders of her town that sent the man because her father was behind on his payments and decided to leave her hometown to travel around to perfect her skills for the day she shall return for revenge on her hometown. She has decided to keep her plans for revenge secret since someone might want to stop her.
At the age of 17 now, she is back to her old habits and still acts childish at times and still loves to sneak around to draw certain sights she sees. She has only grown stronger with her magic and her katana wielding skills along side her martial arts. She still has dreams about her father’s murder and the dead face of the man she killed at such a young age.
