Okay, all of the rules of a standard RPG, however, I want everyone to try and be detailed with their posts, though if it's something like a fight, you can do shorter ones.
For this RPG, you start out at a very young age, maybe as a farmer, a street rat, a noble, a young huntsmen, anything within the realm of possibility of a fantasy world. However, we do not start out with any special powers or skills yet, if so, we are just now discovering them and are nowhere near our full potential.
Also, as a bonus, everyone can contribute in creating the world around our characters, the map, the creatures, the stories attached to them. Everything. As the RP goes along, you help create the world around you, and make it more fleshed out. But before adding something, drop by the OOC and talk about your idea, I'm enthusiastic and interested in what could possibly be in this world, so it's most likely your idea will be used.
profiles...
Name: Gender: Age: Appearance: Short Bio:

Name: Brianna Ravenquist Gender: Female Age: 18 Appearance: 5'8", chubby, messy brown hair, hazel eyes. Short Bio: Brianna is an Earthborn who has had the fortune to travel to distant planets with her trusted Brotherhood. However, she has become separated from all of them but one, DJ. She carries with her many different weapons, including sickles and a glaive.
Name: Daniel Joshua "DJ" Cethin Gender: Male Age: 19 Appearance: 5'6", black hair, brown eyes, bone thin. Short Bio: DJ's fragile appearance is due to being a Noriban. Noribans are naturally gaunt and have a constant shortage of food except around April-September. DJ, as a young boy, was part of an assassin group called "Le Couteau Jaune" (French/Noriban for "The Yellow Knife"). He was there because they were the only ones that would care for him and wouldn't lie to him like his family did. He became a part of Brianna's brotherhood once he crash-landed on Alphanimalia, and she took pity on him because he was dying due to the lack of fluorine. She had another Brotherhood member, Mark Chenjerai, craft a machine to convert DJ's fluorine-breathing body into that of an oxygen breather. He carries with him a rosary and a matching sword with all the main zodiacs on it, as his power comes from the stars.
Name: Dakota-John ("D-J") Gender: Hermaphrodite (Prefers a male pronoun) Age: Ageless Appearance: Tall (7'7"), red fox with various black markings, yellow eyes, and black hair. Can change into an even taller, black with orange markings (inverted, if you will) fox called Tomo-Shinkei ("T-S"). Short Bio: Little is known of Dakota-John's past except that he has killed many. When he lost the land he lived on, he made Brianna into his lackey. Now, Brianna is in pursuit of him and wanting revenge.

Eh? This is a fantasy RP, and again, we start out before we ever do anything. So you're just the regular child who's done nothing yet. EDIT: While I admit that different worlds, something like Norse mythology sounds pretty cool.

Oh, right.
So, I'm still the regular girl from some hicktown in Canada, DJ's still on Noriba, and well, I don't know about D-J. Maybe I should create a character JUST for this RP?

Okay! I got it.
Name: Thomasson Hades Gender: Male Age: 12 Appearance: Black hair, left eye crimson, right eye yellow, 5'5", chubby. He's often seen wearing a black and white cloak which is stained with grass and dirt. Short Bio: Thomasson is part of a poor family that lives out in the middle of nowhere in the prairies. Despite his lack of nice things, he occasionally travels to a nearby city on foot so he can read and become learned unlike the rest of his family. In his time at home, he is often catching rabbits or hunting in order to feed his ailing folks. He carries with him a revolver, rope, a pocket knife and a sickle.

Again, fantasy world, bows and arrows.

Well, then, minus the revolver, knife and all that and replace that with bow and arrows, dagger and (well still) rope. However, I think there must have been some cities in "fantasy" times, and that they must have had some form of book depository/library where leatherbound tomes are kept.

Yes, there are cities.
Name: Villulv Furu-jatken Gender: Male Age: 12 Appearance: A boy with tanned skin, wild long dark brown hair, he has green eyes the color of pine trees, and wears mostly leather and animal furs. Short Bio: Villulv was born to a the tribe of Furu, one of the last nomadic Wild People tribes alive in this day and age. He and his tribe live in the deep pine tree forests in the mountains, mostly secluded from the rest of the world. Villulv is somewhat more intelligent than the other nomads, and is the trickster of the tribe.

I think I'll use just the twins for this one...this time with them being normal twins. Bio's gonna be together.
Name: Brandon Skyblade Gender: Male Age: 13 Appearance: Fair skinned, moderate height, short dark brown hair, brown eyes, left-handed and wears normal, cotton clothes.
Name: Brianna Skyblade Gender: Female Age: 13 Appearance: Just about the same, only slightly longer hair.
Combined Bio: In the small, yet populated town of Valley, the two have made themselves to be a bit of an oddity. Normally, traditional gender roles are upheld without question, but Brandon's shyness and Brianna's outgoing nature have made them a near opposite of this. Remarkably, the two were never subjected to much persecution in their youth, with some small, minor exceptions. Once their 13th birthday came around, they were allowed to be trained in melee combat. The two took up sword training, and much to no one's surprise, Brianna was the more talented at said training. She hopes to train her brother to match her level in order to eventually have the two of them take part in the local Hunter's Guild.

Name: Brianna Ravenquist +Tristan Ravenquist Gender: Female + Male respectively Age: 12 Appearance: Brown hair, hazel eyes, 4'11" Short Bio: Brianna and Tristan were raised in a traditional village called Shi'han Bridge. The fairly isolated place has the traditional male/female roles, however, Brianna didn't want to be part of that. She acted as a boy would act, and went hunting and would prepare for fighting wars with the tribe (as a trainee), whereas Tristan stayed home. Brianna called herself "Brian" among the village and always had her hair cut short and wore male clothing. Tristan, being the more traditional bound, always tried to suppress Brianna's more manly nature. Tristan, being a coward, didn't want to fight.
((Decided to add two more for familiarity's sake))

Again, we haven't done anything, wars, or anything, we all start out fresh, if anything doing with war, you'd be a fresh recruit about to go to war, but that would be the maximum.

Name: Sergei Ektuse Gender: Male Age: 13 Appearance: A dirty young boy with tannish skin and dark, hair the color of dirt. He has blue eyes and is of average height, though a bit on the starved side as his ribs are usually clearly visibile through his ripped cheese cloth shirt. Short Bio: Sergei was abandoned at birth on the doorstep of a wealthy minister. He spends most of his time cleaning the rectory after masses and trying to keep up with his adoptive father's increasingly difficult demands. He spends some amount of time on the streets trying to beg for money and plays the lute to try to bring in more revenue, but still gets almost nothing. He plays the lyre almost obsessively as a hobby, but he secretly reviles all the upperclass and its ilk. While he plays his main goals are that of revenge, both against his father and society in general.
(So, makings for an evil bard. =3 I like unlikely villains. Have an evil cleric in the works too. Have to sort her out first)

Thing is, there is not exact class, but sure, you can put him in that direction. Kinda creepy actually, he could sing a song that forces us to commit mass suicide.

Exactly!
His point is that he can toy with people's emotions using song. He learns how to make people feel happy or sad or afraid just by utilizing different chord progressions. His songs can entrance people, eventually make people forget who they are, change the way they think, the way they act.
Naturally if he were to get into someone's courts as a musician he could wreak a lot of havoc. And who would ever accuse a court musician of making a king start a war or hold an execution? =] I have my own twist on him.
Also he's learned how to manipulate the tritone chord, known as the 'devil's chord' or the 'devil in music' to literally break people's minds. >=] (To hear what a tritone chord sounds like, listen to any song out of west side story. They sing it constantly)

Actually, at this point, he'd be learning to manipulate the devil's chord.
Villulv has yet to discover his power to speak to wildlife, or control nature. He WOULD have become the new shaman had he not been banished, so he has to discover these powers all on his own.

Oh trust me, nothing like that. And are you going to play, Samedi, or are you just gonna spam?
More a long the lines of creating medicine, talking too the dead, and rituals that create rain.

Actually he hasn't discovered that he can do things with music yet. He's just learning of its properties. How it can change the way he feels. He plays to make himself feel happy, or sometimes to make him feel angry and (cheezily) considers music his only friend. For now. That's until he learns he can use it as his most powerful weapon.

Name: Ejin Tomas Gender: Male Age: 10 Appearance: A 5'5" tall urchin boy who's heritage comes from the southern colonies, Ejin is slightly dark skinned with short curly black hair and chestnut eyes. He wears a tattered tunic and a pair of long shorts, which he can't put a name to. He also has a pair of sandals. Short Bio: A street rat, or street mouse, Ejin hasn't mixed well with society. Having had quite few apprenticeships and little jobs turn sour on hi, for one reason or another, and being thrown out into the street, the boy decided scrounging a living was easier than earning one. He does nothing to earn him "special attention" from the guards or citizenry, other than the odd missing loaf of bread or trinket.
