@Shuri-the-Floof-Doggo

Welcome to the country Coadria, a land with a cold, dry, crisp climate, many long, winding rivers and wide coves, and a rocky, unpleasant .
Unfortunately, our Mortal Plane, is at war with another. The Emporer of the Abyss, Belithae, has gained power, and is Hell-bent on conquering the Mortal Plane.
It's only one the Church of the Thirteen Gods, uncovers a prophecy, that six adolescents, from the Coadrian town of Pitchden, a child of a blacksmith, a child of a tax collector, a child of an artisan, a child of a hunter, a child of a merchant, and a farmer's child, shall rise up to stop Belithae.

Tell me, does this introduction seem cliche? That's kind of because it's supposed to, what starts out as a cliche fantasy story, will soon turn into a Trope inverting, satirical, and sometimes even parodying roleplay with a surprising twist ending that I have planned!

Right now we need five characters!

Blacksmith's child, preferably a very tall, very early character though soft-hearted, brooding. This is the warrior archetype.
Tax-collector's child, this is the thief archetype, preferably a small, weaselly character with a penchant for mischief.
Artisan's child, this is the analytical, creative, mage's archetype.
Archer's child, this is the short, gaunt character with a tendency for romance, and a respect for nature.
Merchant's child, is a gallant, witty, character, like the strategist type, who thrives in urban settings.
The farmer's child, basically becomes the standard cliche fantasy hero, like a cross between a paladin, and a peasant.

@Fraust

Name: Casper Gibbons (Cas)

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Hella gay

Age: 15

Species: Human?

Role: Thief (tax collector child)

Personality: Cas is pretty manipulative. He's incredibly charming and knows how to get his way, and that boyish charm means he rarely gets caught or punished badly when found out. He's an only child, and his father was a tax collector. Cas left home when he was twelve after having a fight with his father (he's a bit over dramatic and actually lives up to his ridiculous threats/claims), and his father died a year later due to complications with an illness. Cas never really knew his mother and doesn't know her whereabouts, so he's a lone wolf on the streets. He has a silver tongue and loves to mess with people, although usually in mostly harmless ways. He absolutely loves pranks, and he's a pickpocket. He often takes things from his friends to see how long it takes them to notice it's gone, though he usually returns these items. Deep down, though, he harbors a resentment for his mother for abandoning him, and mixed feelings about his father. As independent as he is, he secretly wants someone to notice he's not completely alright, but his jokes about things are usually taken as just that; jokes and nothing more. (Holy shit that was long I'm so sorry lol)

Appearance: Cas has dark ginger hair with black streaks in it, and brown eyes with flecks of gold. He's only about five feet tall and will physically fight you if you tease him about it. He's quite thin from malnourishment, which he tries to hide by wearing oversized clothes. He generally wears dark colors and has old black boots that he always has on. He has freckles, and his hair is very fluffy and about medium length. It often falls into his eyes and is soft despite needing a good wash. He's very pale (he's a ginger, after all) and burns easily.

Talents: Pickpocketing, Moving quietly, Making people laugh, Charming people

Flaws: He's not always able to keep up due to his little leggies, Lies and truth get muddled in his brain, His walls are up so heccing high that it'll take a lot of work to get him to open up emotionally (unless he's already cracked because of outside events), His emotions can be quite volatile (which is one reason he doesn't like talking about them. He tries to avoid ever crying around people because if he opens up, he ends up talking about far more than just the current problem, often bringing up his years of frustration)

Other: He is the king of the alley cats. Like, any stray cat is automatically his friend. They're drawn to him for some reason and he sometimes carries abandoned kittens in his jacket pockets.

@Fraust

Hecc I forgot to mention that Cas didn't actually know that his father died so he didn't end up attending the funeral

@Fraust

Yeet feel free to make him mad because at five feet tall, he's kinda just adorable XD (He will fight you though)

@Fraust

Noice Cas, unfortunately for him, can only fight well to a certain extent. Like, if a six foot tall man really wanted to pin him, he definitely could XD
