Arkalla Raskin; Mage of the Elements
Topic Started: Dec 23 2010, 03:12 PM (91 Views)
Arkalla

Name: Arkalla Raskin

Age: 18

Profession: Mage of the Elements

Primary Elements: Fire and Lightning

Secondary Elements: Sound

History: The town was empty from the outside. The blizzard from a couple of days ago had snowed everyone in. It wasn't an unusual case in Breis: winter time brought snow, high winds, subzero temperatures, and failing crops, as it had every year since the beginning of time. So why, you would ask, would the Mages of the Elements live in such an inhospitable environment?

Well, because they didn't have anywhere else to go.

You see, back before the Time of Reconstruction, there were hundreds of cities all closely-connected to each other. The country was ruled by a very kind young ruler named Myroshima. He, along with his brothers, kept peace within the land for three decades. The land had never prospered before like it had under Myroshima, and the people were content. But under the surface, there met a rebellious organization euphemistically called the Band of Brothers. They planned mutiny because they believed that Myroshima was forming a sort of spell-binding, brain-washing effect over the people without them realizing. What fueled these accusations was the fact that his family belonged to a group called the Mages of the Elements. These masters of the natural and unnatural were known to occasionally grow lustful for power, though the Mages generally kept them under control.

As the Band of Brothers began to grow, and entire towns were being converted to their cause, Myroshima grew worried. He implored to the Band of Brothers to return to their fellow countrymen, but its leaders were already blinded by their own paranoia. Instead, they urged their members to fight their own unconverted brothers. Soon the land became a battleground between the innocent and the paranoid.

Above all this was Myroshima and his family. Now in his fifties, Myroshima fell into an illness. The medical mages were unable to specify the problem, and deemed it a result of stress, for lack of a better diagnosis. In the wake of his illness, Zane and Gaia, Myroshima's brothers, became co-rulers. Gaia was a master of the elements, while Zane was more of a fighter. Zane suggested that they declare war on the Band of Brothers, while Gaia advocated peace, as did his older brother. However, Zane possessed more influence in the courts, and eventually they declared war. Gaia, in his anger, left the palace and joined the Band of Brothers.

Myroshima died shortly after that, after watching his land and his family torn apart so quickly. Zane waged war against the Band of Brothers. It turned out that the Band was not fond of Gaia, and so he was quickly run out. Zane's lack of leadership among the mage section of his army caused them to desert and live in the small town of Breis, who had remained neutral during the fight. The civil war lasted a long time, decimating crops and people like a knife through paper, and at the end of the war, nothing was left except the small town of Breis and a couple of other straggler towns.

Breis proved to be the most hospitable of all the remaining towns, ironically, so the other villagers migrated there. Zane fled the palace after the war was over, and came to Breis in hopes of finding some kind mages. The Mages, willing to forget the past, allowed Zane in, but they never let him take control. Gaia came back as well, and was treated very similarly to Zane, but a little more warmly, as Gaia respected the Mages and knew why they didn't leave. Gaia became much more influential than Zane did in court proceedings. And so the Mages of the Elements lived on.

Arkalla himself was born of a minor noble and his wife. With ties to Zane from his mother's side, he was sent to be trained first by Gaia in his normal schooling, and then to Zane so he could learn the art of war. Gaia knew from the beginning what sort of Mage Arkalla would become, and taught him accordingly. Gaia, well into his seventies now, perceived a rush of power in the young man, whom he taught extensively the fire and lightning elements. However, he also began to notice that Arkalla was in tune with sounds, and he frequently saw the young man tapping or slapping his palms against his knees. So Gaia decided that he would attempt to teach him an experimental sort of "pseudo-element" that he had created.

It turned out that Arkalla was very good at using this sound element in terms of energy. It didn't take him long to figure out how to manipulate sound and sound waves in different ways. With the completion of that training, Gaia reluctantly sent Arkalla to Zane, whom he had not trusted since he came to Breis.

Zane ended up being very successful at teaching Arkalla how to use the elements to battle. The war veteran first attempted to teach Arkalla sword-fighting and the arts of war, but the young Mage proved unresponsive to such training. Zane realized that he would have to teach Arkalla how to fight using the elements, as Gaia had thoroughly converted the young man into a full-on mage. Zane knew that Arkalla was not a defensive combat mage, so he focused mostly on offensive techniques. He still taught Arkalla the basic shield moves, and basic survival tactics using his main elements, but Arkalla mostly learned how to use fire, lightning, and sound to take out an enemy. As Zane had never seen or used the sound element before, he was forced to let Arkalla experiment on his own with the element.

After he was deemed sufficiently trained, Arkalla began his own training. He attempted to fuse the elements together so he could use the power of both. He could only manage to successfully fuse his two primary elements with sound; not with each other. On the day of the empty town, he applied for the Arena. Arkalla knew that his training would be helpful, but it would be all in vain if he was unable to defeat enemies...

Appearance: Arkalla has sandy brown, short-length hair that falls to just at his eyebrows. He has light skin, and possesses a slender figure. His eyes are the exact shade of brown as his hair, and he wears an earring in his left ear. He tends to wear only two sets of clothing: his mage gear and his battle gear. His mage gear consists of a crimson robe with a black dragon snaking across it, and sleeves that cover his hands. With this form, he holds a crystal-clear, smooth rock which he uses to help transfer his energies onto the outside of his body. He wears brown sandals under the robe, which usually covers him completely. His robe has a hood as well, but he doesn't wear it when he isn't in battle. His battle garb is only slightly different. At Zane's suggestion, he wears leather armor under his normal mage robes. He also holds two clear stones in battle. He also no longer wears sandals: instead he wears light, leather-bound shoes. As stated before, he wears his hood in battle.

Abilities: Arkalla is able to control fire and lightning. His main uses are using fireballs to attack one enemy at a time, and lightning strikes to attack multiple, but he is able to use both either way. He also possesses the sound element, which he usually uses to confuse or disorient the opponent. His various uses of sound include using it to suspend auditory capabilities, shift the air to distort the air visually, and using it to create a sort of repulse ability. When he fuses fire with sound, it's mainly used to create a large area of effect attack, or to intimidate or scare his opponents. When he fuses his lightning element with sound, he is granted the ability to strike multiple opponents in a wave, or disable opponents' electronic-based equipment. He also possesses crude defensive capabilities: namely, a weak shield spell, which can block minor attacks.
