Excavation (OOC)

[Døvu]

The story


Thousands of years into the future, a multi-specie team of archaeologists venture down into the catacombs of old societies, untouched since the sudden, mysterious fall of human and fur-kind sometime in the early 2000's. The remains of past societies have submerged, and as we start to rebuild, we search for clues of our ancestors and "new" technology. The team ventures into the dark underground ruins of our world today in an attempt to discover clues to the cause of the near extinction of all life on Earth. Along the way our adventurers will uncover the remains of our society today and our technology, which far exceeds their own. Their families struggle to say goodbye as they descend to the caverns of what mother nature has been trying to cover up. Buildings up to the size of skyscrapers have sunk into the ground like bricks in quick sand, retaining...for the most part...some structural integrity. Entrance through the top floors are the only way in. In the search of answers to the mysteries of these "strange" buildings, we will enter into these dark fossils. Once inside, fire is our only light, and if thats not scary enough, we are not alone. The team will discover creatures that have been lurking inside for ages. These creatures are of many shapes and sizes, clearly showing features of modern humans and furries. Were they the cause of extinction, or a result? The answers lay stories and stories below ground...and there will be no turning back.

Eyes: Hetero Chromatic The right eye is scarlet with a  very thin slit pupil while her right eye is violet
Height: 1.45m
Weight: 41kgs
Coloring: Light green with a white chin and stomach.(she has a peculiar  marking on her left arm that wraps around and over her neck ending in a symbol on her right eyelid...maybe not magic but definitely marked by a demon)
Clothing: Black tank top with a light chain shirt over it, and matching black skirt.
Specialties/weapons/other: Despite her small frame Suzzen is surprisingly fast and strong, she carries two serpentine curved daggers with her and is almost unnaturally able to blend into the shadows,A mark on her right arm seems to radiate darkness, although not being able to use magic her affinity with shadows allows her to feel things others cant.
Background/motive : Suzzen grew up in a tiny village on the edge of the old Germanic black forest, her trib were always superstitious about the forest and what dwelled within, having vivid memories of tales of demons and monsters, Suzzen developed a curiosity about such things. On her 14th birthday she ventured much deeper into the forest than most hunting groups would ever dare to go. Deep in the heart of the forest she encountered a strange set of daggers, feeling drawn towards them. After she picked them up she was confronted by a dark shadow creature telling her of the power he could grant her if she allowed him inside, she accepted. Having made a deal with this demon Suzzen became faster and strong and acquired the ability to disappear into shadows for short periods of time, but this power came at a cost,it engraved itself into her body in the form of a black marking on her arm and face, and causes her to have a strange craving for blood. She has joined this expedition in hopes of finding out more about what happened to this world....and her.

awesome, you're in 
were starting. please post asap 

[Sij]

If I can't join due to you guys already starting, do not worry. But I would like to if that's okay.
 
 Mind you I've not much RP experience but I feel I may be able to handle a serious RP.
 I have two questions though.
 
 Is there a posting order?
 And also can my character no longer have any family?
 
 Here is my application thingy though.
 
 Name: Sij
 Species: Human
 Age: 18
 Height: 5'11
 Weight: 155 lbs
 Coloring: White/tan skin with many, many tattoos of things such as dragons most significantly he has wings on his back, but not normal wings, the wings are blades coming from a root originating from the bottom of his spine (this is a tattoo not an actual physical feature). very muscular, but lean muscle so not very bulky.
 Clothing: Shirtless, but with a heavy woolen cloak. Just normal loose linen pants, that are easy to move around in.
 Specialties/weapons/other: Definitely a specialist in combat. He carries a single long sword and a shield fastened out of wood and some metal scraps scavenged from some wreckage. Quite fast and flexible. Has years and years of training with himself and the normal brutal combat that occurs in this now tribal world. He is a very mysterious person and rarely ever gives out any sort of information about himself or his tribe. He seems to carry himself with a sort of wisdom that not many his age can achieve. His posture shows the true confidence of a warrior, and most of all a protector.
 Background/motive: Born into a tribe of warriors, however the tribe was wiped out by opposing tribes who teamed together in order to eliminate them. He is one of the very, very few who survived. After the tribe was wiped out he began to travel and find new challenges for himself in order to further himself as a warrior, his motive for going is to perfect himself as a warrior and know that he can face any challenge that may come about in any situation. This underlies with his path to avenge his tribe as well as be sort of a protector for justice and wipe out any tribe that he deems corrupt or evil.
 
 I hope that's alright. Let me know if I should change anything!

[Cifero Windtail]

Name: Michael Lawliet
Species: FelineAge: 16
Height: 5'11"Race: Anthro
Coloring: Grey with dark grey stripesObsessed or Normal: Normal Clothing: Dressed in mostly all black with a grey button-down vest and a black trenchcoat-like thing (clothing consists of lightweight white undershirt and white t-shirt under a black button-down shirt with black pants and black ranger boots)Country of Origin: UKSpecialties: Has a basic knowledge of ancient languages and can decipher them. Is lethal with projectiles and swords. Good with his hands.
[size=78%]NOT THAT WAY!!! [/size]
Weapons:  Magic returning dagger, long black-handled katana made by folding the metal many times more than usual, standard torch, seemingly endless supply of throwing daggersPersonality:Impulsive, calm, loyal, thoughtful, brave, slightly sarcastic; enjoys reading
Background/motive: Michael isn't exactly what one would call "sane". In fact, most people think that he's possessed... but it's not because he has mental problems. Truthfully, he's rather normal. The problem is that he was able to understand ancient languages without learning anything about them. However, it was this strange quirk that caused him to be invited to join in the excavation, and since his alternative was to stay in a village that thought him to be a demon and treated him like he was one (that is, nobody wants to be within spitting distance of him), he decided that it would be nice to finally get some human interaction, because although he's had plenty of time to practice his fighting abilities, he wouldn't mind having a bit of time with others. However, he didn't know that one of those members was one of the few remaining survivors of some tribe that his tribe and others destroyed, and despite the fact that he was actually against the destruction of the tribe, he knows that some people hold grudges, and is a bit apprehensive of working with him.


Which is why he's going to make sure to stay behind the man at all times.
