Welcome to Gaia! ::

Story:
In the beginning there existed 8 gods: Arlathil goddess of nature, Hardro god of earth, Niar goddess of ice, Zith god of water, Nizzre goddess of electricity, Chareth god of fire, Suca goddess of wind, and Rendon “The Creator” master of darkness and light. The seven lesser gods, with Rendon’s permission, put their powers together and created the world and its races. Each hand picked their priests upon whom they bestowed the miracle of healing and unique abilities depending on which god chose that priest; each god except for Rendon. Temples were built all over the world in honor of 7 gods who had created them. A large piece of land to the north was dedicated to Rendon. A temple was built there in his honor. This was his one and only temple that the peoples of the world had come together to construct. It was the largest by far. Though no one lived here, priests of each of the 7 lesser gods came here in rotation to look after it and the land surrounding it. For countless life times, there was peace as the gods watched over the world. Things were prosperous and the people were happy but all that changed in the blink of an eye. That morning, all the priests heard the eerie silence and when the people come to them for help, their found that their powers had completely vanished. The world was built around the teaching of the gods and now it was as if they had never existed. At first the world was in stunned silence but not for long. Try as the priests might to hold everyone together and keep them faithful, the world erupted into chaos.

Usuername: uilenyk
Name: Zaneth Keel
Age: 134
Race: Elf
Preferred Weapon: pike
Faction: The Order of Ecan
Rank: Lead General of Defense
Belief: The gods are not coming back
Bio: Zaneth was born to a poor merchant family while the gods where still there. He had a happy life and was content until that day. He and his family had just arrived in Atitha the previous day. At first no one knew what was going on but the news spread like wildfire. Many people went to the priests to find out what was going on and when they didn't get an answer, they got violent. The peaceful city turned into a pit of blood and violence in the blink of an eye. Both of his parents stayed faithful to the gods and they along with the few who decided to follow the priests did their best to protect the temples but the masses were too great. Many died including his father. The rest fled the city, looking for some place to stay, but because of their number and the fact that they still followed the gods, it became clear that they would not be able to stay any place too long without bring violence. The group continued to travel, doing their best to fend off attacks and stay in hiding. Everyone in the group learned to fight to protect the group. Many fell sick due to the stress their bodies were put under and despite the efforts by the priests to save them, many died. After about 8 years, his mother fell sick as well. Day after day, Zaneth watched as his mother got worse and worse. A year later, the group stopped in the village of Ecan. The people of Ecan had been more accepting of the group because it was made of people who were just trying to move on with their lives. Due to his mother's condition, he and his mother stayed in the village when the group moved on. A half a year later, she passed on leaving Zaneth feeling completely alone in the world. Slowly but surely, he settled into Ecan and became a member and made friends so when the idea of forming a group dedicated to protecting the village, Zaneth jumped at the opportunity and The Order of Ecan went further than he ever imagined.

Username: uilenyk
Name: Kuro
Age: unknown
Race: unknown
Preferred Weapon: Great Sword
Faction: none
Rank: none
Belief: unsure
Bio: Kuro has been in the frozen lands of the north for half a year and has no memories beyond that. He doesn’t even remember arriving here. His only possessions were the cloths he wore, his weapon and the bear necessities for a shelter. Besides this, the only other significant thing he knows is that there is a constant message in his head and so far it has been repeating the same command: wait. So for the first 5 months, he wondered the lands alone always returning to the same spot, never going too far. It was about a month ago when the others started arriving. Like him, they too don’t remember arriving and arrived with very little and the same command in their head. One difference was that they all arrived with specially made training weapons that matched their actual weapons. For the past month, a few arrived every day. They found joy in sparing but never killed or severally wounded each other and they continued to wait in the same location waiting for the command in their mind to change.

Username: GreedyFatCat
Name: Renard Spira
Age: 128
Race: Half-human, half-elf
Preferred Weapon: A sword longer than the average blade
Faction: The Rebellion.
Rank: First Division Captain
Belief: He is secretly beginning to be doubtful they will ever return.
Bio: Renard was born to a human mother and elvish father, whose relationship was looked down upon in their village. However, both regarded Renard as their beloved child, and raised him to believe that he was considered ‘special’ by the gods. The disappearance of the gods cause many people to panic. His parents grew concerned but chose to stay in the village to protect their temple and faith. They died protecting the holy place. Renard joined the nomads that followed the priests when his town was burned by bandits. From the west, he travelled far, unable to stay too long with any form of civilization. He was ostracized because of his half-blood, and because he believed that the gods would return. Only did he find the nomads did he fit in, and is rather loyal to their cause. Once they formed the Rebellion, Renard took arms against non-believers and those who tried to change these lands into damnation. He rose to the first division within time.
Yet, as he watches his brethren continue to fall for their cause, Renard has began to doubt the return of the gods. He dares not say anything, and denies his doubts strongly, but deep inside he can’t help but feel that this is a lost cause. He wants to follow his tribe faithfully, but he also wants to move on and try to live a life not dependent on the gods that abandoned him and his people.

Username: GreedyFatCat
Name: Eureka Fortuna
Age: 24
Race: Werewolf; she is weak against wolfsbane and some metals like silver; she transforms at full moon forcefully and painfully; she cannot transform at will
Preferred Weapon: A mythril bow and arrows
Faction: The Rebellion
Rank: Vice-Commander and currently acting Head Commander
Belief: Firmly believing that they will return to these lands.
Bio: Both her parents were firm believers in the holy power of the gods, as did her ancestors before them. The thirty years of chaos did not distraught them; they still spread the word of the Gods despite the persecution of the priests and their faith. Like many believers, the Fortuna family began their nomadic lifestyle, doing their best to follow the priests and protect them from the chaotic blindness of the lands. Even when her own parents had passed away, Eureka continued to follow the tribe, still strongly believing that the gods will return one day. Many of the priests were murdered or died off. Others preferred to live in secret or turn to non-violent means. However, a few priests thought to fight against these non-believers, the Order of Ecan, who claims to bring order and peace. These few priests raised the rebellion, in order to fight for their lives and beliefs, and hopefully “save” those who had lost their faith in the gods.
Eureka stepped up, and took her position high in the Rebellion. She currently opposes the Order of Ecan, who she feels is hopelessly lost and has betrayed their origins.
