Class/Position: Unclassed wanderer, as of now. A healer or beast summoner, if anything.

Origin Plane (will always be Ravnica, unless mod permission is asked): Ravnica

Personality: If asked for a general summary of Gaius’ personality—one could say that he’s mildly tsundere. He’s sensible, and does his best to be kind to people, but he’s got quite the sharp temper, and can get defensive at times. Still, even if he’s got a bit of a bad temper, he means well. He’s generally a pretty accepting guy, and as a friend, is fiercely loyal. He knows how to read a situation, and be either gentle or firm in personality accordingly, during most times. At first glance, he might seem a bit moody—but he’s actually a lot gentler than he usually lets on.

Backstory: Gaius is the son of Selesnya champion Emmara Tandris. He used to be a pious member of the Selesnya Conclave, believing fully in the consciousness of Mat’Selesnya, and what it brought to the people. However, at one point during his youth, he ended up having to stay for a while with the Slizt Clan of the Gruul, when he became lost and was injured while in the Rubble Belt. Staying with the Gruul, however, implanted seeds of small ideas in his head—ideas of individuality. At first, these ideas disgusted him due to the teachings of Mat’Selesnya that had been pounded into his head—but, even after he returned to Selesnya territory, these ideas that he gained from the Gruul continued to morph and grow—up until the point when he realized the kind of life that he had been living up until that point. He didn’t want to be a part of the consciousness of Mat’Selesnya anymore—he wanted to be an individual. Also, he knew that soon enough, his ideals would become well known—and he would be dealt with. He tried to confide in his mother for advice, but she scorned him and his new ideals, refusing to acknowledge him as her son any longer. In response to this, Gaius knew that he had no choice but to run—he ran away from the Selesnya Guildhall, off into one of the more heavily forested areas of Selesnya territory. While there, he figured out a way to forcefully separate himself from the consciousness of Mat’Selesnya—however, because he’d been connected to her his entire life, the separation came as such a shock to the system, that it knocked him out and wiped his memory clean. When he came to, all that he could remember was his first name—and all that he could gather of his previous life was that he was with Selesnya. This bit of information simply came from the Selesnya symbol on the back of his coat. He wandered for a bit, up until he came across a Risen Sanctuary by chance. At first, he was afraid of the elemental, but eventually, he bonded with it, and the two of them became friends. He named the temple Orion, and Orion has since become Gaius’ protector, home, and good friend. He has been living in the temple ever since, wandering from time to time.

Family (if any):
Mother: Emmara Tandris
Father: Unknown
(Gaius is unaware of who his family is at this time)

Fighting Style (if any): Gaius doesn’t actually know how to fight on his own—rather, he has animals (mostly birds), and sometimes even Orion, fight for him. He can summon small creatures like birds most easily, but can also summon larger creatures like rhinos and wurms, however, larger creatures require more mana to summon. Having Orion fight for Gaius requires a large amount of mana, as well, since Gaius needs to use his own mana to keep Orion moving—and having the temple fight just expends lots of energy. While Gaius can’t actually fight by himself, he can heal using his green and white mana.

Weapons (if any): The closest thing he has to one is a wooden staff.

Pets and/or Companions/Familiars (if applicable--please ask for mod approval beforehand):
--Orion
-Risen Sanctuary elemental
--Birds
-Lots. And lots. Of birds. Yes.

Theme:
Gaius’ Theme – Another Heaven

Notes:

-Gaius has full amnesia of his past—he would regain his memories most likely if he was ever re-connected to Mat’Selesnya, however, judging by his previous views on the Conclave, re-connecting probably wouldn’t be the best thing. He doesn’t know this, though, of course. He’s got no idea how to regain his memories, and is mostly wandering.

-Gaius bears no great animosity towards any of the other guilds—although he doesn’t hold a particularly high opinion of any of them, either. He’s mostly neutral about them. However, as far as Rakdos goes—he’s terrified of them.

-Gaius loves nature, and loves animals. He takes care of a number of animals in his home—birds, especially. He’s got at least thirty birds, if not more, nesting inside Orion.

Name: Adara Hunter
Race: human (creates angel wings out of white mana)

Gender: Female

Age: 19 in looks, 150 or so in actuality (she stopped counting)

Height: 5'7

Weight: 150

Guild: Azorius

Class/Position: Elocutor

Origin Plane (will always be Ravnica, unless mod permission is asked):Ravinica

Personality: kind, mature, wise and levelheaded. Due to her long life span she is very calm and accepting of changes around her but when she is opposed to something she has learned to speak up even if her voice isn't always heard.
She is very willing to help people and wants to feel like she is contributing something positive to the world.
Backstory: Adara's family has predominantly been situated in the Azorius guild. Her mother was a Elocutor and her father was an infantryman. Her siblings were all given parts in the guild but only Adara and her sister Clara were deemed important, as a result the two had their aging process halted. She was fine with this for a while but after having the people around her begin to age and die she became uneasy with her guild and what they had done to her. This feeling was solidified when she began to see how life was outside of the guild through Edwin's family and realized how little freedom she had as a result. Her has been with her for 75 years. Her relationship with him began professionally and overtime they became lovers, though neither will admit this aloud for different reasons. Her relationship with her sister has turned into fervent animosity on Clara's half and calm indifference on Adara's end as clara knows her sister is unhappy and considers this a betrayal to their guild.
 She  is currently seeking a way to protect the people she cares about and loosen her guilds control over her.
Family (if any): father, mother, two brothers, three sisters, all deceased with the exception of one sister who has had her aging stalled like her sister. This sister, Clara, is now an Arrester. She considers Edwin part of her family but for a different reason.

Fighting Style (if any): stealth and magic. She will try to tire opponents out by avoiding their attacks and using her lithe frame to sneak around moves. Magic is used more offensively, particularly to avoid causing unnecessary damage. She is willing to fight if needed , particularly if people she cares about are in danger.
She uses an orb of white magic to seal her foes inside temporarily.
She uses a curse on her opponents that sticks with them until she cancels it and forces them to forget one specific things that she chooses
She can write down something on a slip of paper something that a specific person cannot do

Character Appearance:



Name:
Felix Ives

Race:
Human

Gender:
Male

Age:
25

Height:
5'10''

Weight:
162 lbs

Guild:
The Boros Legion

Class/Position:
Boros Skyjek

Origin Plane (will always be Ravnica, unless mod permission is asked):
Ravnica

Personality:
Felix is very dedicated to everything that he does--he never half-asses anything. He holds justice and peace in high-regard, and will fight to uphold them, if necessary. Felix is a zealous person, and can never rest until a job is done. He is perseverant and oftentimes stubborn. In general, he's fairly amiable. He used to be quite obnoxious and rambunctious in his youth, but has since calmed down quite a lot. Felix is a good judge of character, and can generally read people pretty well--because of this, he knows when people need comfort or when they need their space. He wants to keep the people around himself safe at all costs. He's extremely loyal--he would never betray a friend's trust--just as he would never betray his guild.

Backstory:
Felix was born to a happy family--he had his mother and his father, and later on, his little brother, as well. Felix's father was a Skyjek in the Boros Legion--and Felix always dreamed to be like him someday. He trained and trained until at last it was time for him to join the Legion--and join he did. He joined the ranks of the Skyjeks, just like his father--it was the proudest and happiest moment of Felix's life.
Too bad that that happiness was quite short lived. The moment that Felix returned home, he learned of grave news--his father had been killed in a skirmish with some Rakdos ruffians while attempting to put down a function that the Rakdos were running a bit too close to the edge of the Overcity for comfort. And this had happened at the exact same time of Felix's appointment to his new position.
From that day forth, Felix swore to fight his hardest for peace in Ravnica--so that nobody else would have to die a death like his father's. He wanted to make his father proud--and so, he promised that he would keep improving, and just keep getting better--up until he had eliminated every last speck of strife from Ravnica, following the orders of the righteous Legion that he was a part of. He knew in his heart that justice would prevail--he just knew it.

Family (if any):
Felix's father is deceased, however, his mother and younger brother are still alive. His mother has a job as a seamstress, and his little brother dreams to one day join the Boros Legion's forces and fight alongside his brother. Felix lives with them--and he loves and cares for them very much. He would never let anything bad happen to them if he had any say in it. Felix's mother is currently middle-aged, while the little brother is about ten years old at the moment.

Fighting Style (if any):
Felix went through the harsh, regimented training of the Boros Legion, and as a result, has come out as quite the exemplary fighter. He knows how to use both of his weapons with careful precision, and is an excellent roc-rider, as well. Felix knows to keep his guard up during a fight, and once he's fighting, he isn't easily distracted. He's the kind of soldier who will run right into the fray, all in the name of keeping the peace.
Additionally, during battle, Felix will sometimes use the spell Angelic Destiny in order to turn himself into an angel for better mobility and strength. This is only when he doesn't have Bertrand to help him out, though.

Weapons (if any):
Felix's main weapon of choice is a poleaxe. It's a weapon convenient for both on ground and while on his mount, because it has good reach. However, while he uses his poleaxe the most, he also knows how to use a regular sword, as well.

Pets and/or Companions/Familiars (if applicable--please ask for mod approval beforehand):
Felix's companion is a roc bird, known as Bertrand. Bertrand is Felix's mount when he rides into battle--but Felix can fight with or without him. Honestly, they do best as a team, though.

Theme: Felix's Theme - Birth of a Hero

Notes:

-Felix has made quite a name for himself among the Legion. He's become so popular, in fact, that it seems as if there's some kind of person running around impersonating him for their own gain...

-Besides his job with the Boros Legion, Felix always takes time out of his day to help people of the city--carrying heavy packages, helping grandmas across the street--all that jazz.

-Asides from riding rocs, Felix is actually quite skilled in riding horses, as well.

Name: Edwin Nightshade

Race:vampire

Gender:male

Age:100

Height:6'4

Weight:175

Guild:Boros

Class/Position: Swiftblade

Origin Plane (will always be Ravnica, unless mod permission is asked):Ravinica

Personality:quiet and serious but can be kind and affectionate, particularly where Adara is concerned. Edwin is particularly devoted to what he considers his duty, sometimes even to the point he is willing to defy the guilds if need be. A side effect of this devotion however, is that Edwin is incredibly aware of what he sees as his place, normally to  a reasonable amount but in the case of his relationship with Adara this awareness tends to lead to a large amount of frustration on her part. He is calm even in the face of danger majority of the time. The only time he is able to completely lose his composure is when he has gone too long without feeding

Backstory:Edwin was raised in Ravinica  with three brothers and an sister. He joined Boros as members of his family had before him. His brothers enlisted along with him, with two of his siblings even becoming sky knights. His sister instead of joining Boros chose to be guild less and work as a herbalist to all of the guilds. While her brothers shunned her as a result of this, Edwin respected her decision and would continuously check up on her to make sure she was safe. Edwin's duties were at first very run of the mill until he was assigned to protect an Azorus elocutor named Adara. While touched by how kind the girl was he still initially just thought of her as a charge. That changed when he was attacked and turned by a orzhov vampire. Boros held no grudge against him as he had been changed in the line of duty but all of his family but his sister turned their backs on him. Adara insisted he be kept on as her guard despite his protests and over time the relationship grew from a professional one to being lovers, though he doesn't consider himself worthy of being called that. His sister would continuously support him as he did her by teaching her children to welcome him and help when they could, this teaching still being continued on  to this day. Edwin typically brings Adara when he visits as he found she liked time away from the guild. This desire has only intensified over time and now he is determine to help adara gain more freedoms, even if it means going against both Boros and Azorus.

Family (if any): Immediate family dead, but has several distant relatives that he has gotten in touch with, particularly his late sisters descendants
