Fantasy - Tooth and Claw: Hunters for Blood

Dear Hunter, Our world is coming to a close and with the earthen cries, monsters rise from the depths who have slumbered for a megaannum. They, too, fear the end of the world. Please come to the internal wound and stop the coming doom. Only then, may we sleep once again. The sound of the ghostly...

Marabel Henrietta VI

Age 28 - Female​

• Physical Description
• Persona
• Background
• Hunter

• 
  With a soft smile always present, her porcelain-like tone always gave Marabel the looks of a doll - if she never moved. Her hazel eyes are often complimented especially when under a sunny gaze making them look golden or amber. Average height, her black hair reaches down to her waist. Colors of burgundy can be seen in direct sunlight.
  While appearing as a nearly perfect woman, it is far from the truth. Beneath the nice, green dress lies scarring and reoccurring bruising. Marabel suffers from vitamin deficiency and bruises easily. Her scars were the result of a monster attack in her younger years.

• 
  Enchanter
  
  Fine Ramie Fiber Green Dress
  
  • Simple, durable and lightweight. There is nothing special about her dress and it does not offer any sort of protection against damage.
  Poison Resistant Amulet
  
  • An amulet hung around the neck, there is a strong scent of minerals that come off of it; typically a sort of iron. The amulet is used as a rubbing agent when exposed to poisons that made contact with her skin. Deep injuries or ingestion would require a different form of aid.
  Pro and Cons
  + "Mara'Pops"
  
  • While not exactly a cook, Marabel excels at making small treats for others with a large variety of benefits. She is great at coming up with recipes on the fly as if the cogs in her brain is always turning. In addition, she can be on the field and create Pops based on available ingredients in the area. This gives her teammates an advantage to have a steady supply given they are able to keep her safe.
  
  + Agile Reflexes
  
  • When out on the field to collect ingredients, one must know how to escape a monster. Don't worry if you need to ask Marabel to run, you better believe she will. Even if she's able to duck and roll, she can only do such so many times before she tires out.
  - No Combat Skills
  
  • Spending days making beneficial items for others to ensure they have a successful hunt, Marabel never really cared to train in some sort of combative skill. In her earlier days, she never saw herself being out in the field but now being at the encampment, it has given her some close calls. At best, she can through sticks and stone but never break any bones.
  - Vitamin Deficiency
  
  • No matter how often she tries to keep up with a healthy intake of vitamins and minerals, she always seems to be suffering from some sort of deficiency. Marabel bruises easily and sometimes her body weakens for a short period of time. Though, she will always keep up a smile.
  
  Special
  Microbe Wrap
  
  • A living organism that inhabits a special piece of cloth. This organism eats dead tissue and helps speed up recovery for minor wounds and most severe wounds. However, Marabel does not reveal what sort of organism and other ingredients unlike her pops. Is it worth trusting such a mystery?
  
  Skill Hobby
  Herbal Edibles - "Mara'Pops"
  
  • Marabel has always wished to make sweets as she use to love eating sweet berry pops, which were berries coated in a hardened sugar. Though, she no longer craves the sugary sweets- often - she had learned to make sweets or edibles out of a wide selection of herbs. These are often in the form of small, round leafy capsules.
    • Available Items
    • 1. Berry Pop
      • Even though it is not the original Berry Pop she grew to love, she made a healthier version of her childhood sweet. This burst of sweet berry will make anyone have a smile.
      • Variety of Berries, Honey, Blood Amaranth Leaves
    • 2. Hydra Pop
      • When temperatures get hot, Hydra Pop will cool you down and help hydrate at the same time! Great for those heading out to warm areas or suffering from migraines.
      • Soaked Basil, Soaked Marshmallow Root, Crunchy Melon, Watercress
    • 3. Behemoth Pop
      • Just as it gets hot, it gets cold. Open up wide and warm up with a Behemoth Pop. Give yourself a few seconds to chew this one. Great to induce relaxation.
      • Ginger, Banana, Cumin, Pepper Seed, Fennel, Blood Amaranth.
    • 4. Forbidden Pop
      • Perhaps not exactly "forbidden" but you should not eat many of these on a productive day. One helps relaxation and ease digestion. Many makes you see things others do not. Please keep your clothes on.
      • Poppy Seed, Psilocybin Cap, Cumin, Honey
  • These will typically be in stock but keep an eye out for new recipes!

Physical Description Red hair large burly slab of meat standing 6'1" ft and weighing a colossal 220 pounds of pure muscle. He has a blood thirsty grin and bright yellow eyes.

Image - will attach later


PERSONA INFORMATION:

Key Characteristics
No key characteristics. I don't like those. Not specific enough.

Personality: Kor is a wild untamed beast, with primal urges. Kor is loud, outspoken and very opinionated. He is a simple man that values strength, honesty, hard work, loyalty, bravery and a fighting spirit. He loathes weakness and believes all lives should fight for the right to live. However he is not a monster that will stand idly by and let someone die if he can prevent it. Part of why this is so is because he wants to help, he wants to be seen as a good person and he craves recognition above all else. Which proves to be a double edged sword as he tries too hard to get attention. Somewhere under his rough and tough can do spirit is a softer passionate man that wants things done properly.

• How would your character respond if they were put
  in a position of extreme fear?

Loud and angry. With fear comes rage and frustration.

• How do they typically
  respond when overjoyed?

Loud and uncontrollable joy. He will pick you up and hug you!
Hobbies

• Basic, on the side, personal hobbies.

Kor's personal hobbies include sparing, drinking, musical instruments and glory

Likes: Strong alcohol, strong women, strong things and people in general. music, war horns, drums, and bathing. Yes. Despite his barbaric nature, he likes to be clean and smell good. Hygiene is nice, but he also doesn't mind being a lil sweaty/dirty every so often. He's not afraid of germs per say.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

Background:

Kor's father was a man named Kar. Kar was also a Beast Caller as well. It was expected of Kor to become a beast caller. Kar was a good man throughout his life. He never did any wrong, and he always went out of his way to help, even if it meant getting nothing or even being worse off for ware afterwards. Many of his small deeds went unrecognized and he would forever be mistrusted. He carried this burden on his scarred back with stride. By the time Kar was 40, he had already looked in his mid fifties. Kor grew to resent weakness in people for this. He still saw his father as one of the strongest people to ever live, in his eyes at least. Now these days, Kar serves as a mentor. Training future Beast callers. He was a very strict man with a strong moral compass, and was the hardest on his own son. Which is why he tries so hard to get recognized. However like many dads, Kar was never impressed and critiqued him whenever possible.
Bonds

Kar- Father - Beast Caller Mentor - 51(Looks 65)

Players: (if you're reading this, throw Kor in your bonds! He's a great best friend!)

- Otherwise, none at the moment.

HUNTER INFORMATION:
Class - Beast Caller
Weapon(s) - Various leather armors from monster hides with a few pieces of plate armor here and there. His weapon of choice is the theorbo lance. A lance with long strings running down one side of it and the tip, shaped like a treble chef.
Pros Cons;

+ Powerhouse: Kor is extremely powerful and possess great physical strength

- Brute force: Kor lacks grace in his strike as he has no formal training experience.

- Dim witted: Despite Kor's hard work building his muscles, he has weak 'brain muscles' and gets confused in situations that require sharp wit.


Specialty

• What about your hunter makes them stand out? - Kor is loud, outgoing and shirtless
• Do they have a signature move, a special potion that no others can create, perhaps a skill? - Conquering step is a powerful thrust that can be used to gain a lot of distance and deliver a powerful thrust. If the opponent is too close, this attack becomes a kick and body slam as the attacker attempts to knock the defender within piercing distance.

Skill Hobby

Tracking: "to understand beast, you must think like beast. Become beast" - Kor

Kor understands how beasts think and knows what to look for when tracking or avoiding beasts. Foot prints, markings, scents, and various other things within the environment.

Blacksmithing: Mostly leather work. Kor can dye and create tough sturdy leather for armor and repairs. He has a few tools that allow him to work with metal, but his metal work is very limited and crude. Oftentimes relying on others for weapon maintenance.

Kor is surprisingly artistic and gives leather armor elegant painted designs.

 

[ThAtGuY101]

I feel pretty content with Kor's bio. The backstory feels short. I need to make it long. It might need some touching up, right? Don't answer that, it's a rhetorical question. Of course it needs a better backstory.

I'm also not sure if I need to add monsters to this list since he is a monster caller i assume maybe, and also how many to start off with???

What do you think? RitualDeadlyf

basics

name

Aelina "El" Borgeux

age

Thirty-two (32)

gender

Male (he/him or they/them)

El's first impression is one of earthiness and being grounded. He possesses a solid physique, a tall vertical line, and a quiet mannerism. His dirty blonde hair is perpetually mussed, while his blue eyes offer no clues to his real thoughts. For someone with seemingly simple tastes, his choice in out-of-combat gear belies his real preference. The fabric often speaks of subtle luxury, making El look more put together than many of his colleagues.

Beneath his shirt, small scars litter his tanned rough skin, with a particularly nasty one running just above his collarbone from a bad monster encounter. Hunting monsters often meant small prices to pay; El finds these wounds a minimal due.

persona

key characteristics

grounded / a taste for the finer things / pragmatic / steady under pressure

fear response

loss of composure / anger / avoidance

joy response

soft laughter / smile / pat on the back or hug

hobbies

appreciation for artisan craft (commissions personalized pieces) / singing and storytelling (supplements as a bard/troubadour) / shopping (haggling)

background

El was born to a happy match between his father, a local soldier, and his mother, a wandering troubadour who settled down only long enough to raise her children. She left often, but never for long, and always with a new story to share or gift to spare. She was the one who developed his love of art, whether they be oral, visual, or tactile. Frankly, neither of his parents expected a fighter out of him or his two sisters: they wound up with one soldier, one hunter, and the youngest a smith. As El's father became a soldier out of necessity rather than choice, he hadn't expected to have to teach his children the ropes, but life had its own plans.

The town ran low of able-bodied folk as hunters left to pursue bigger prey. Few were left to defend monsters from inching too close. Aelina and his older sister both took up arms, though with different reasons. His sister did it as battle had been her calling from the start; El picked up his sword because he sought to protect instead.

It was this desire that gave him his gravest wound. His sister's fight with a Segben had gone awry; had he not arrived in time, the results could've been much worse. Sheer instinct had him pushing his sister aside and attempting to block what would've been a fatal strike. As it was, it rendered him unconscious with the searing pain while his sister got back to her feet to finish it off. The wound didn't heal well, likely a side-effect of whatever poisonous substance it coats its claws with. To this day, the scar remains prominent against his skin, hard to miss during the few times he's spotted without his shirt.

Younger Sister

name (@user)

let's talk c:

hunter

class

Warrior

weapon

A two-handed broadsword smithed by his younger sister. Carved into the handle are symbols of protection that his sister added after he decided to continue hunting despite the encounter with the Segben. Despite its heft, the sword is incredibly well-balanced and no one side is heavier than the other. It's wider than most typical blades of its kind.

gear

A metal chest plate created by his younger sister with leather pieces by other artisans. Much of it is engraved or carved, showing clear signs of being taken care of.

accessories

He wears a decorative metal shield across his heart inscribed with more symbols of protection. The tooth necklace he wears is from the Segben, but it's strictly decorative.

pros

A solid fighter with an innate understanding of the flow of battle. He hits hard, and can take a few beatings (though ideally he'd block most of them). Protecting is in his blood; he's able to keep an eye on his teammates even when it seems he's focused on something else. He's best at drawing attention to himself so others can hit the monster freely.

cons

El is not exactly a subtle figure; his gear is heavy and fairly noisy. It's also safe to say he's not a solo fighter by any means, as his swings often leave him exposed and he can't hit often due to the effort it takes to even start a strike.

specialty

El has quite a mastery of the art of using his broadsword as a shield, a style he developed over his years. Han crafted his sword as a direct response to his specifications, hence its unusual width and specially designed grip.

skill hobby

He spends quite a bit of time doing maintenance on his gear, as a lot of it is specialty equipment. Specific oils for certain leathers, what polishes to apply to which alloys - if he doesn't have it, he likely knows someone who does. If he has spare time he'll help out with keeping others' things in top shape.

NADIA CROSS || 38 | she/her | ranger

• description
• persona
• background
• hunter

• 
  At first glance, Nadia could easily be dismissed as a regular citizen. In many ways, she looks much like a typical middle-aged woman with roughly chopped, mouse brown hair that she keeps in a loose bun. She is of average height at 5'7" (173 cm), has a slightly stocky build, and a strong nose. There is a roughness to her hands that betray a life of labour and a clean vertical scar that extends from her left cheek to neck. Her skin is pale and splotched in parts from rosacea and she has sharp grey eyes set above dark bags.
  
  Nadia keeps to earthy colours for her clothing, and though they are clearly well worn and patched, they are always kept in good shape. She carries a dart rifle slung over her back and always has a hunting knife attached to her belt.
  
• 
  Those that initially clock Nadia as a demure housewife would be wise to watch themselves. While she may appear reserved when approaching new people and situations, Nadia has a fiery temper and little patience for anyone she deems a fool. Though she can be a bit of a prickly personality, she has a wry sense of humour once she's warmed up to someone and a soft spot for younger folk.
  
  joy response || makes jokes | hums | relaxes
  
  fear response || anger | freezes up | disassociates
  
  hobbies || gardening | shooting | humming
  
• 
  background ||
  
  Even as a child, Nadia Cross was a bit of an odd character. She liked to keep to herself and spent her days shooting pebbles from her makeshift sling or drying the herbs and plants from her mother's garden. A life of hunting monsters seemed a natural progression as she got older, especially since she struggled to stay in one place for too long. She plied her trade by travelling from place to place, taking jobs here and there from settlements that were plagued by the odd roaming monster. It was a shock to her most of all when she met someone she thought she might just settle down with. Gale Huxley was a good man that led a simple life as a barkeep in a quiet town. Somehow, without quite knowing how she did, she found herself returning there again and again, even when the available work didn't justify it. It wasn't much longer before she married and a Siobhan, her beautiful baby girl followed shortly after.
  
  The next eight years were a mixture of both bliss and hell. She loved her family more than anything on the earth, but she was always a wanderer, and could never quite put that rifle down. Transitioning to medical tinctures meant to cure a person when you were used to poisons meant to harm proved impossible for Nadia. The hunt always called for her. Always kept her on the road, sometimes for weeks at a time, chasing down a job. And her husband never approved of those trips, despite the good money, nor the weapons and poisons Nadia stored at home. She tried never to stay gone for long. Just as the hunt called Nadia away, Siobhan's childish glee welcomed her back home. But distance like that was hard on her marriage. Distance became separation, and finally, they called it quits all together.
  
  Now divorced, Nadia has largely gone back to her old hunting ways. She still goes home to see her daughter when she can, though the pull Nadia feels from Gaia's Scar has captured her attention as of late.
  
  bonds ||
  
  Siobhan Huxley | daughter
  
  Gale Huxley | ex-husband
  
• 
  WEAPONS AND ARMOR
  
  mismatched, well-worn clothing || Never one for delicate clothing, Nadia's attire is practical in nature and designed to blend into her surroundings with its earthy tones. She does not wear armour, instead preferring to wear trousers and loose shirts that allow her to move around easily. Her hiking boots are easily the most protective thing she wears. Nadia is often seen wearing a wide brimmed hat and keeps an old leather bag slung over her back.
  
  poisoner's rifle || Nadia is a crack shot with a rifle that takes highly specialized ammunition. Instead of bullets, it takes dart ammunition that can be loaded with poisons, paralytics, or sedatives. Due to this specialization, the rifle cannot fire regular ammunition. Nadia has six darts, which she must retrieve after battle.
  
  hunting knife || This blade is not meant to be used as a weapon and is suited for more delicate work, such a skinning and extracting valuable resources from plants and monsters. Though sharp, it is impractical to use in a proper fight.
  
  PROS AND CONS
  
  + skilled marksmanship || Though not a sniper, Nadia excels at making quick, precise shots from a medium long range. She lives by the adage of never letting her quarry see her coming.
  
  - limited ammo || Ammunition for Nadia's rifle is specialized and takes time and resources to make. She must reload after each shot.
  
  - close range || Nadia is functionally useless in close combat and is extremely vulnerable to attack.
  
  SPECIAL
  
  Her vulnerability in close combat has led Nadia to develop other skills; mainly, the art of the stakeout. She is content to wait hidden for hours, watching and waiting until the time is just right. To aid this, Nadia has a handful of cloaks that help her blend into ground cover in various environments.
  
  SKILL HOBBY
  
  Though unable to create her dart casing herself, Nadia is able make her own tinctures to reload her ammunition. With the right plants, animal extracts, and time to set up her equipment, Nadia can make sedatives, paralytics, and poisons.
  
  sedative || Most effective on smaller monsters, a shot of sedative will gradually make monsters sluggish and slower in their movements. A smaller monster may fall asleep over time.
  
  paralytics || Effective when focused on specific parts of a monster. It can temporarily disable targeted parts of a monster, impacting things like movement if something like a leg is targeted.
  
  poison || The most deadly part of Nadia's kit and the most difficult to make. No two monsters are alike and poisons must be specially formulated for them to be effective. Poisons can cause disruptions to the monster, such as blurred vision, pain, and disorientation. Some poisons may contribute to death over time, but it is never a quick process.

Aster Mansouri

Age 22 - Male​

• Physical Description
• Persona
• Background
• Hunter

• 
  Aster's visage and frame give off the image of a disinterested grump. With piercing amber eyes that are covered either by hair or goggles and bronze skin that is always covered either by a lab coat or overalls covered in mysterious materials. The young man usually has a sly smile plastered on his face that evokes eerie feelings in others. Although Aster appears to be a frail man, under his clothes lie masses of muscles that are magnified by his tattoos.

  • Anxious laughter
  • Spouting how he will be executed in the worst way possible.

  None, at this time.
  
  
• 
  Class
  Enchanter-Warrior Hybrid
  
  Gear
  Aster has an array of work overalls that he wears off missions and he usually wears light-weight armor for missions. Each set of armor is usually dependent on the climate or monster he is hunting, but for the most part, it will be leather-based armor for maneuverability. Aster keeps a utility belt on his person filled with ingredients and tools for quick access, but on missions, he has to be extremely selective because he can't carry anything that could hurt or hinder him will jumping and dodging.
  
  Weapon
  Pow Hammer - A War Hammer created by Aster himself. It's an older hammer that he modified to be able to load in ammunition to add a real punch. The hammer reaches over Aster by 4 inches. The cartridge is only able to hold 4 slugs and once shot need to be refilled. The ammo is a mix of natural resources and monster parts.
  
  Pro and Cons
  ♠ Pros - Aster is surprisingly strong and agile. The hunter can use his hammer to maneuver himself around the battlefield by using his hammer as a pole vault, using the weight to pull himself in different directions, or by using the hammer's explosive shots to launch himself. Aster's intelligence is also extremely useful in the field. He can come up with quick ideas or makeshift traps to further assist his fellow hunters. Aster's specialty is explosives. He loves a big bang.
  
  ♠ Cons - Aster is reliant on his hammer for powerhouse strikes, without the pow strikes his hits are considerably weaker than another Hammer hunter, but also because he is reliant on the slugs for power shots and maneuverability he takes a great loss when it comes to his combat ability without them. Aster is not like other enchanters in the fact that he does not have the same supportive utility as the others. He has spent most of his time creating weapons, bombs, and gadgets so he has neglected the knowledge of healing.
  
  Special
  Explosive Aura - Instead of using the cartridges in his pow hammer, Aster tosses them out seemingly sporadically. As they fall around him he swings his hammer without a care in the world, batting the cartridges at the monster/person causing them to explode on contact with the person. The attack very dangerous and has the potential to hurt others if Aster isn't careful or precise with his aim.
  
  Skill Hobby
  Craftsman - Aster considered himself a craftsman above all else because his creations range from blacksmithing, and engineering, to enchanting. He uses science to his advantage to create different things that other hunters could use on adventures.
