Appearance: A tall man at six foot two inches, with a pale complexion, devoid of blemishes and scars. His figure is of average build, yet muscles lie beneath this. He possesses misty grey eyes and wild, white hair.
Beyond this, his appearance is not well known, for he wears black all over. A thick, black jacket, black trousers and black boots. Even a black headscarf covers everything below the nose. He can be seen with a black hat that allows a few stray white tufts of hair to poke through.
Personality: The Fool is complex, to say the least, with a response to every situation. Most of the time, he is a calm observer from the background, not interfering, simply content to watch.
When he does decide to approach someone, he is a charismatic, enigmatic individual, prone to the most unshakable calm or a wild ecstasy. He is very unpredictable, and can react in the most startling way to the simplest thing. He leaves his mark when he becomes involved.
Weapon: A small, silver pistol, loaded with 6 bullets to a clip. He can generate both the gun and the clips from thin air.
He can give magical energy form, usually in the form of white light. This can be used in a variety of offensive and defensive ways.
Personality: Benjamin is a calm, intellectual, young man hailing from Britain. Fiercely protective of the other wands, Benjamin would risk everything to stop one of them being hurt. Benjamin is unwilling to participate in the war for this reason, wanting to resolve it and for everyone to be united. However, he realises some violence is inevitable, and as he would never be rushing into anything, Benjamin believes in waiting and plotting before springing into action.
Benjamin is kind and approachable, and will hear anyone out, whether it be the highest wand, or the lowest of the enemy’s forces; Benjamin has a kind heart and likes to see the best in everyone. Fiercely loyal, if you are a friend of Benjamin’s, you want him on your side in a fight. However, being a master of fire, Benjamin has a fierce temper, and when provoked, is prone to fits of rage.
Weapon: As well as being the master of the Lucifer Wand, Benjamin always carries a scimitar with him, as in combat, there are some cases where magic just won’t do.
The Lucifer Wand can only be held by Benjamin, should anyone else try, the wand will heat up to a temperature high enough to melt steel.
Being affiliated with both the Lucifer Wand, and his Major Arcana being the Sun, Benjamin has unparalleled fire magic, fire can’t hurt him, and he can bend fire to his will. Benjamin is unique, as the fire he conjures will always be blue.
As well as fire magic, Benjamin also has some degree of Light and Dark magic, although he can’t control these as well, and using them exhausts a great deal of energy. If he was facing a life or death situation, Benjamin could use this branch of magic, in any other situation, he is disinclined from doing so.
Major Arcana: The Sun
History: Benjamin was born into a rich family, attended the best schools and was accepted into Cambridge University whilst growing up in England. He was expected to go on to great things, however, he surprised everyone by dropping out of university after only a year, and moving to America.
Benjamin, discovering his powers, fled to America. Feeling an affinity with the warm weather of Florida, Benjamin used the money in his trust fund to buy himself a large house near the coast. He has an open door policy for any other wands, they’re free to stay in his home for however long they want, free of charge.
Now watching the war intently, Benjamin spends most of his time holed up in his home, locked in conversations with other wands, planning when they should make their move…
[Name] Aibhilin (Ave - leen) Padraigan (Ava for short)
[Age] 21
[Gender] Female
[Appearance] Ava is remarkably dissimilar in appearance to her older twin.
At 5'7'', she stands a good two inches taller than he sister which gives her a more imposing appearance. Where her sister is fair haired, Ava bears long, flaming red hair that shows the sisters Irish heritage. Her eyes are a crystalline amethyst purple, disguising her thirst and lust for battle. Whilst she has a more fiery appearance, Ava is able to disguise this and leaves the intimidating first impressions to her leader sibling.
One thing that is the same between the Padraigan twins is the fact that both prefer to wear their long hair tied back. Ava's is even longer than Eve's, pooling around her feet if she leaves it loose. It is rarely, if ever, left loose for the reason being that it is impractical to the fighter twin. Her fringe is cut so it lays just past her eyes, easy to brush aside. It is slightly longer on either side of her face, feathering around and down just past her cheeks. When tied back, Ava wears her hair in a high ponytail that allows it to still brush her calves, but is out of the way enough that she does not trip over it.
More inclined to smile than the Cups Queen, Ava gives off an incredibly open and approachable air. She does this to disguise her fighter spirit as most who meet her whilst she is caught in the midst of battle rage... well, needless to say it doesn't leave a very good first impression. Her eyes sparkle and she has a cheeky little grin for everyone; especially fellow Cups. However, if you cross their Leader or any of her faction allies... Hell Hath No Fury Like A Woman Scorned.
Ava's attire is also more... modern than her sisters. It consists of a simple, black corset with an open fronted, long dress over the top. This dress is black with a white floral, almost oriental design. The skirt section splits high up both sides at the front and closes via a ribbon that Ava ties at the neck. She wears simple, black boots to cover her feet and a long, thin glove to cover her right hand. Another glove that reaches her wrist and is of a tougher material covers her left hand.
She wears no armour.
[Personality] Ava is as far from her sister as she can possibly be in personality. She is far more volatile and prone to rage. She allows her thoughts to run free, even wild, and recognizes very few limitations. Despite this, Ava has a feeling for power and how systems work, and is able to use this in her battles. She is enigmatic and aggressive, doggedly pursuing her goal until it is either reached, or she is prevented from fulfilling it.
Ava has been dubbed "The Executioner" by many of the Cups due to her explosive nature and love of battle. Uncharacteristic of the Cups, Ava enjoys nothing move than destroying any who attempt to stand in Eve's way. She is Amazonian, a warrior, a woman who loves the thrills that battle gives her. Intimidating on the battlefield, her approachable demeanour completely vanishes to be replaced by the cold-blooded killer. Deadly and accurate, very few have escaped Ava.
She would willing lay down her life for the Faction, however. Extremely passionate and bound by the honour of her people, Ava may not seem to be a Cup at first, due to her warrior ways, but she shows it through her willingness to fight to the death for their cause.
Unlike Eve, Ava is not a fan of physical affection. Whilst she is willing to take bed partners, she is not one for cuddles and romantic walks.
[Weapon] The Faith Warrior's Dagger
[Faction] Cups
[Major Arcana] Judgment (to gain later)
[History] To be revealed alongside Eve's during the RP
Appearance: Standing at shorter than average height, at 5 foot seven or five foot eight inches, Lukas is not heavily muscled, possessing a slender build, more suited to speed than brute force. He doesn't have much endurance or physical strength, but he is quite acrobatic, able to perform quite incredible feats such as backflips, somersaults and the like.
His hair is rather disorganized and chaotic, and it can always be seen in a tousled mess. However, it is still quite well cared for. He has bright, emerald green eyes, set in a rather pale face. He has a small nose and thin lips, for an overall youthful appearance.
In terms of clothes he prefers casual wear, such as jeans, shirts, t-shirts and the like.
Personality: Compassionate and empathic, Lukas has a magnetism that he isn't aware of. He attracts people to him with a kind personality and a listening ear. He is always willing to give people a second chance. And a third... and a fourth, and his often works against him, as he is naive enough to try to see the best in everybody.
However, he is something of a lone wolf at times, and even though he can function well within his faction and with other people, he enjoys his own company most, enjoying the luxury of simply sitting on his own and thinking. It's not an unusual sight to see him sitting in his room or a quiet place, doing nothing, or even talking to himself.
Overall, he's very brave and calm, unshakable in most situations and often able to take point in the case that his superior is not in the area. He is a good, calm leader and second in command, able to take and issue orders as best he can.
Weapons: A long, white wood stave with a quartz crystal sitting on the tip. This can be used for a clubbing weapon, and can also convert into a sword at his will. This represents the solid power of the Hermit.
He also possesses the typical Earth magic of the Pentacles, as well as minor healing.
History: Lukas was something of an outcast from a young age, being the weird kid everyone bullied or outright ignored. He wasn't too affected by this on the outside, but on the inside, he began locking himself and his emotions off, not wanting to give his tormentors a reaction. Eventually, it became as though he didn't exist. Even though he had a loving family at home, at school he was totally ignored.
When he left school, he decided not to go to university, but to travel the world a little. He went to Europe, Australia, Africa, all by himself. It was in a small village in Africa that he found the Hermit, and had a long conversation with it. After this, it unified with him, and became his Major Arcana. Lukas emerged from Africa a changed boy.
Naturally, a neutral person possessing a Major Arcana had many people vying for his allegiance. In the end, he sided with the Pentacles, and has risen to become their second in command. He likes their down to earth ways and is fiercely loyal to them.
Washington could be an approriate place to start, with your character's political background. You can either become involved in the upcoming action or be an observer.
The Base isn't in Las Vegas. Diar and I were discussing the Cups being more Nomadic as they prefer to avoid conflict so they move whenever conflict finds them.
-pets Faction;- Don't make me set Ava on you.
I'll get a post up when I'm not headachey/neck achey .
For those in the Swords, we'll be based in San Francisco. I didn't make that clear in my first post, so this is a reference for them and anyone else who doesn't know.
