Name: Ferret
Sex: Male
Age: 14
Race: Human
Appearance: An arabian-looking boy who is often mistaken as younger than he actually is. He is only around 4'8, and of thin build. He wears what he can scavenge, usually no better than dirty rags. His long, dirty hair extends past his shoulders, and is helpful in covering up his missing ear. His face is dirty and covered in bruises and scars. An earth rune covers the whole of his chest, and his shard is embedded inside him in his left upper arm.
Weapons: Only his fists.
Abilities: Has some control over lifeforce, able to both give and remove it. It is easier with non-sentient creatures, but most animals and humans are able to resist this power. He also cannot use this power on himself. He also has control over earth, able to mold it to his liking, as long as he can keep focus on it. He can use this to build walls, throw boulders, that sort of thing, but he is very inexperienced in it at the moment.
Personality: He acts much like his name. Ferret is never happier than when he is in the dirt, roaming across the ground. He is eager and enthusiastic about all kinds of nature, and is a naturally playful boy, despite the hardship he has gone through. He is rather naive in spite of that though, and this has caused him no shortage of injury. He is ignorant of where his powers came from, and does not give much thought to it.
History/background: Ferret has roamed the world for his whole life, being a camp-follower of armies from all over. He is a scavenger, one living off the possessions of the dead. Most of the time, he assists the cooks when there is nothing else for him to do. He uses his powers to grow plants, and then barters them for what he needs. He has never seen combat, always running at the first sign of danger. He has recently discovered his powers when out in the forest. A foraging party came upon him, and he ran. He tripped and fell, but the earth swallowed and protected him, allowing him to escape. He has recently been practicing his new earth magic when he can, but he is still merely a novice, and is but one of thousands of camp followers, completeley unnoticeable except for the abilities granted to him by his shard.

"Delenda est." "Furthermore, Carthage must be destroyed." -Common Roman saying at the end of speeches.Nick: Hmm... I'd prefer to keep this RP party-bound due to plot reasons. So in other words, i'd rather have you join the party instead of randomly wandering around. Aside from that, where is your rune?
Young Machete: Accepted. Though i wonder, how did your shard get embedded in your arm? That would make for a nice bit of backstory, which i may actually use in the main plot... Somehow >=D
Well, with those new additions, this RP will be launched later today.

Stuff happens. Post it here so we can laugh at you >=DAdded one last character due to plot reasons (And due to it being fun :P
- Name: Maria Elimis Lumes.
- Sex: Female
- Age: 19 in Elven years, about 70 in human years. (That is to say: She still has the body of a young girl, but the experience of someone who is a lot older)
- Race: Elf
- Appearance: Maria has long flowing blonde hair, though she generally has it curled back up by aid of hairpins. She has bright blue eyes. Her ears are still somewhat round, not yet having gained the typical pointy ears Elves tend to have, but not quite human anymore either. She has a very pale skin, though somehow never seems to get sunburned. [[Handwave This might be because of her innate healing powers]]. A Life rune is set on her forehead.
- Weapons: An ornate magical staff.
- Clothing: Maria wears a white robe adorned with several runes and elven writing. These runes have little magical power, though they do give some extra sturdyness to the robe, preventing it from tearing from the slightest provocation. However, they don't protect her from direct attacks. The sleeves of the robe have red and purple fabric sewed in, the neck area just has red, and the bottom area has bits of green fabric sewed in. Under the robe she wears standard undergarments. She also wears a crown-like band around her head with a white-green gem set in it; the gem is centered right over the Life Rune.
- Abilities: Maria has the power of healing. She can heal almost any wound, but bigger wounds cost a lot of energy to heal. Healing near-fatal wounds can bring her to the brink of death by exhaustion if she doesn't take a rest. She also can use some minor Light-elemental magic, and has learned to summon magical barriers. Other than that, she is very weak physically, depending on others in combat while taking on a supportive role.
- Personality: Maria is a very nice person, always ready to help someone in need. She goes as far as to completely abandon her own needs when someone else need help. This has almost killed her once, when she was called on as a healer during a flu epidemic... She healed several hundreds of humans before finally collapsing from sheer exhaustion.
The healers wondered what to do as Maria sank further into a comatose state, when someone had an idea; Maybe they could somehow fit a healing crystal on her body? The only problem was that they didn't have any healing crystals left; Maria herself used the last one when she healed the patients. All hope seemed lost when a wizard arrived with a very potent healing crystal: the Life Gem.
The wizard said that the healers could have the gem if he was only allowed to see Maria for just a second, to prepare the ritual. At this point, the healers were desperate for help, so they agreed to this minor request. A minute later, the wizard left Maria's room again, holding a crystal band. He told the healers to place the band around Maria's head, then set the Life Gem right in the middle.
The healers proceeded to do what the wizard said. As they placed the Life Gem, the band around Maria's head shrunk a bit, making it impossible to remove it. At the same time, a rune appeared around the gem... Second after, Maria opened her eyes, blinking for a few times. She felt at the band around her head and the gem on her forehead before sitting up and asking the healers what just happened. The healers were amazed at this rate of recovery; even their best medicines weren't this effective.
Soon after, Maria went on a journey, healing whoever needs her help. Now, she has been called by the Orleanz family...
