This is a roleplay for myself, Cifero, Razuel, Nishjin, Alka, Firefly and Bricket. Loosely based off a different RP, it has the same rules.
With one more: We all start without awakened aura, which means that we have no magical abilities to start off. We will be undergoing training as the RP progresses.
Now, for the story.
---
“The world has been fighting itself for centuries. The four elements – Air, Earth, Fire and Water – are out of balance and it is wreaking havoc on the population.
Volcanoes are everywhere, erupting every few months – spewing ash and magma all over the surrounding land. Cyclones lash and flatten the tropics, Floods and landslides destroy farms in the south, and wildfire is ravaging the forests.
Elders from every nation collaborated, and decided that there must be something done to restore balance.
They agreed that they needed to bring a new power into the world, one that would keep the others in check.
An element of destruction.
Aether.
There was a small problem, however. They needed incredibly powerful mages to create it.
They needed four beings – one for each element, and one other – as the first host for the Aether.
They needed Guardians.”

The bartender stood up, removing his massive paws from the bar. He looked across, and saw Ibi asleep – drink in paw. “Ah, lad… Ye look like ye need ta go ‘ome.” He picked up the drink and put it on the bench behind him. He then walked around the bar with a big “CLOSED” sign under his shoulder.

Mara had been hunting for most of the afternoon and evening – and, assuming that Ibi was at the tavern, headed there before the inn. She’d noticed that Ibi had been there a few times lately, learning old tales from the friendly bartender. She began thinking about their adventures, but in her daydreaming, she failed to notice – until too late – that she had bumped into someone.
